#coming out as a coffin hater

[evilhasnever]

(I got a very interesting ask on CC and I want to elaborate more because I answered it very briefly at the time)

First of all, I don’t think the coffin ending is just or deserved for either nmj or jgy - and I don’t think shoving lxc into it makes it any better, or gives any sort of closure. I do think that in some moments of despair Lan Xichen may have wished to be dead as well, but that has nothing to do with a desire to “be with them” (being buried with two non-sentient corpses who are fighting in a horrifying way for a century is not really ideal) and more with a desire to escape his guilt about stabbing JGY. [as an aside I also think the coffin is very much a convenient plot device to tie up all loose ends neatly so wangxian need not to worry about it in the happy ending, and people give it sometimes more significance than intended, but that’s just my personal interpretation!]

Anyway! Grief is irrational, of course, so Lan Xichen may think he wants to die and be torn apart by corpse monsters for a minute there, but he will never do it, and you know why? Because A-Yao saved his life. It is narratively understandable that Lan Xichen, a symbol of hope throughout the story, has his Hope snuffed out at the end and we are left unsure whether he will ever be able to recover. But he simply can’t die, because A-Yao pushed him away to let him live!

So that leaves option B - live on with guilt and regrets and, ideally, do something about it. Where you take this is up to you (Protect the watchtowers? Just try to do good by orphans and commoners? Become immortal to wait for that century to pass?) but I just want to append a note that I don’t think resurrecting JGY necessarily means going to the dark side! Save for, well, in the literal sense i.e. demonic cultivation. ;)

also damn, WWX is right there. Maybe in 10-20 years he’ll get bored enough to decide to do a good deed for Lan Xichen’s 50th birthday or something. God knows he deserves it.

"Straight Guy" Rockstar Eddie Munson having a dating life not dissimilar to Pete Davidson, all like, Grade A bombshells while he's just this scrappy little rat man who, while extremely talented himself, while being a music industry mega star, is also just funny enough to land these women by making them laugh real Jessica Rabbit style, an he's so sweet too, bit of a vulgar pest but he's sweet.

He also has serious issues stemming from his fucked childhood though, and these women are all giants in their fields, they don't have time for those issues, they can't afford the bad publicity that comes with his issues rising up.

So those relationships land in the papers, there's tons of bad publicity, and then they inevitably explode a few months down the line.

He's been in rehab three times. It's not working.

It's only when the bands good fans start being drowned out by the criticisms of haters and articles and all kinds of awful memes and jokes that Gareth and Jeff call in reinforcements because this cannot continue.

In comes Steve.

Sweet sweet reformed jock turned co-owner of a cosy little bookshop that Robin fell in love with and just had to have him buy with her, Steve. Eddie's second best friend from after highschool, during that sweet spot period just before opportunity swept Corroded Coffin up into the chaos of fame.

And Eddie winds up dropped off at Steve's two bed apartment for an extended stay to get his shit sorted away from the public eye.

And maybe they kiss about it.

Was Lilia more “Oh my thorn fairy I have another child?! I can barely cast a spell as of now and future me wants a fucking KID?! AT THAT AGE?!”

Or more of a

I HAVE ANOTHER SON?! AND IT’S FROM ME!?

If his Yutu tells him he comes from the future? Because it could imply he does regain his remaining years and magic. Idk how you wrote that problem that even rn it’s giving talk about Lilia surviving book 7 or not.

If it’s the second I already see him passing by Silver’s room really excited and saying “YOU HAVE A BROTHER!” And zooming off, leaving a very confused Silver and thinking he refers to either Malleus or Sebek.

technically anon asked first but this ask is much longer so it was awkward to screenshot for an answer. Here is the link the anon used for reference, I obligated as an elderly hater to let you know it's from SAO. Anon's idea is extremely good and we're going to roll with it for this Yutu's Uniqe Magic because you know he was always going to be a little shit.

notes: they/them used for Yuu, context on the fyuuture kid au can be found here and here. SPOILERS FOR: Book 7, Lilia's back story, and Silver's unique magic. Please engage with this in mind. For more fyuutre kid au, please check out the series section of my masterlist.

I have a bit of difficult time writing for Lilia given how much older he is than the rest of the cast, so I tend to write his Yuu as being a bit older themselves. Maybe they had an extremely difficult childhood and connected with Lilia over their shared sense of robbed innocence. Whatever it was I think this Yuu has a bit of a fascination with creatures of the night and a lot of their weirdo reputation within their community comes from kids telling each other that Yuu and Yutu are vampires. That makes me tempted to say Lilia! Yutu's real name is Alucard or Sebastian, something vaguely vampire themed.

None of those rumors are helped by Yutu finding himself very lethargic when out in the sunlight or his preference for colder temperatures. From his perspective he can't exactly help being who he is, people should really just get over themselves and let him do his thing. It's not his fault that bats really seem to like him for some reason, the neighbors are exaggerating Mr. Animal Control officer he swears.

Because he prefers to spend his awake hours in the dark, he is waaaaay too comfortable doing things and going places he shouldn't. He's real familiar with all the abandoned buildings and sketchy alleys of your town and has tagged quite a few of them. I like the idea of Lilia! Yutu being really interested in street art and Graffiti. I could see him putting up a bunch of bats everywhere and getting in a bunch of trouble for it. He has very fond memories of Yuu letting him paint murals on portions of their house in an effort to meet him halfway. He might like a good prank but unlike his father Yutu is always pulling his punches with Yuu.

Lilia didn't exactly have a supportive parent while he was growing up, something I feel like Yuu remembers and is very conscious of in their parenting of Yutu. Unfortunately for Lilia they also remember that he had another child and was a lot older than them, something Yutu raises several eyebrows at and causes him to ignore the things Yuu tries to tell him about his "great sense of humor" and "desire for different peoples to learn and grow with one another-" yeah that's great can you back up a bit to where you said he had another family? Yutu goes through life thinking he was the product of an affair Yuu had with a much older, married man who was just trying to feel young again. The amnesia stuff... sometimes he wonders if his dad tried to have Yuu killed. He never says it out loud because something tells him he's wrong, but gut feelings aren't as trustworthy as statistics...

So you can imagine his surprise when he tumbles out of a coffin and is told that his dad was a faerie general bound in service to a family of dragons, veteran of an ancient war, and technically the adoptive father of the Prince of the children of the night and the Prince of the rival human kingdom that killed his best friends. One of which is alive and overwhelmed with joy to meet him. Silver wanted Yutu almost as badly as Lilia and Yuu did so to see him alive and awkwardly squirming in his arms? Silver hasn't cried this much since they lost Lilia and Malleus.

Having a proper older brother, not just the concept, is an extreme change for Yutu. He's used to it just being him and Yuu, and he was sort of expecting Silver to hate him just for existing. Nothing could be further from the truth, Silver wants his younger brother to have the same freedoms he did while attending school but he also respectfully requests that Yutu spend at least some of his free time with him. He tried desperately to find his dreams over the years and was never able to make firm contact, but he doesn't want to pressure Yutu into caring about him. Yutu is didn't realize how badly he wanted other family members until he got to have Silver, he's even willing to take up sword fighting so they can get closer.

Sebek is also overwhelmed with tears upon seeing Lilia! Yutu. He is a bit harsh on him for "not living up to Master Lilia's legacy" because he doesn't know anything about fighting. He does applaud him for his willingness to learn. Yutu thinks Sebek is hilarious and messes with him just as much as Lilia does. Something Sebek is completely willing to let him do because it makes him feel like Lilia never left.

All of the Yutus get to see some of the photographs Yuu left behind, but Lilia! Yutu is especially interested in them. He makes a small photo album of all the ones he can find of his dad, especially ones where he's with Yuu and Silver. He's partially driven by guilt for thinking his father was a terrible person, but really he just wants to feel closer to him. He's half fae, and sure he has Sebek to talk about that with but what he really needs is a connection with his father. Yutu doesn't really care about being a faerie. He just cares about his dad's acceptance, everything else can go hang.

I don't have a name for his unique magic, but going off of anon's idea it allows him to overwhelm his target's mind, forcing them to think about their greatest fears to the point they are convinced they are really going through it. Someone hates spider? All over their face and in their clothes. Crippling fear of failure? Suddenly that emotion is all they can focus on. And if it's a mindless creature like a blot phantom or a monster they become overwhelmed with the sensation that they are unable to breathe and about to die. Yutu can't control the illusion the person experiences so usually he tries not to use it on his classmates.

That changes when he goes into the past. Some rando want to shit talk Yuu? Nightmare. Macho NRC guy wants to rumble? Nightmare. Some random guy jumped out from behind him and yells "BOO!" Nightma-

If Yutu had been just a hair slower he would have been in extreme pain, the dangerous glint in those familiar ruby eyes scream that. The short fae smiles almost cruelly, advancing on him clearly upset even though Yutu has dropped the spell.

"Well now, that's no way to great a senior." Lilia's voice is strangely soothing, it occurs to Yutu that this is probably the first time his father has ever been angry at him and he can't help himself. He laughs,

"Yeah sorry about that." He makes sure to try and be cute about it, which helps to diffuse the tension some what. "You really scared me so it was all I could think to do."

Lilia is very impressed by Yutu's reflexes and control over his unique magic. He is even further impressed by how eager Yutu is to train with Silver. The kid has some real promise and fits into Silver and Sebek's dynamic better than Lilia could have dreamed of. He really hopes the two will benefit from having a relatively normal human friend their age to train with. Maybe he and Yuu will stick around and give him some piece of mind about the kids being in good hands when he's gone.

Yutu hanging around Diasomnia gives him an excuse to chat with Yuu more, not that he exactly needed it. Lilia sort of hates the way he's drawn to you, it feels unfair. Unfair to you to give you hope there could be something more and toy with your affections; unfair to him for life to finally allow him to realize what romantic love is like just in time to have to let it go. There is a bittersweet tone to all of your interactions that his housemates are a bit too socially awkward to pick up on but Cater does.

Yutu is surprised how much he likes Cater, he associates him with a terrifying monster he's had to fight multiple times, not a fun guy who is really determined to help his parents get together. And what's even better he's really chill when Yutu asks for stories about Lilia, he has a lot of them and a completely different perspective than his older brother allowing Yutu to glean some more insight to what his parents might have been thinking in the future.

He finds himself spending a lot of time with the pop music club, not as an official member though he's not great at carrying a tune. Kalim, Cater, and Lilia are glad to have another person to chill with, sometimes they'll play music and Yutu will draw something based off whatever noise they made. Cater wants to talk him into doing album art for them... you know if they ever get around to making a recording.

I think Yutu will only tell Lilia who he is if he has no choice. He wants to mess with the timeline as little as possible, but should a monster from his timeline appear in this one, say like an overblotted Yuu another asker was so nice as to bring up, well it's not like he says who he is. He just addresses the monster as his parent and has a very loud meltdown not wanting to fight them again. Something Malleus is more than willing to assist him with.

"Think nothing of it." Malleus's power is truly terrifying, Yutu is torn between sorrow that he wasn't on their side and relief he didn't overblot a second time. "You are Lilia's son yes? That makes you my subject, and a most precious one at that." Not that Yutu has avoided interacting with Malleus exactly, he's just found talking to him exceptionally awkward because well. He's not Yuu, he's very aware of how important Malleus is supposed to be. But the way he's looking at him now makes him think that maybe he was missing out on interacting with another older brother.

Something that's confirmed when he turns to see how big his father's eyes have gotten, the man is shaking as he stares at his face and flicks between him, Malleus, and Silver like he's staring at the most precious pieces of art in the whole universe.

As you brought up Lilia's survival isn't guaranteed, I did not solve that problem at all. I sort of just... wrote that Lilia would age more or less like a normal human and not really be able to use magic on par with what a fae would consider normal but would still be impressive to a human... so while Lilia might be a bit reluctant to show his face in Briar Valley he would still have enough years to have and raise Yutu. He might have actually died around the same time as Yuu if they had lived a normal life.

He is overwhelmingly excited at the thought of having another baby. Lilia might not know what to do with them but he does really like kids. What's harder for him to accept is his relationship with Yuu. Raising a child is something he's done before, being someone's long term partner is not. He is unused to feeling desirable, and unfamiliar with acting on his own desires. Sure Lilia might seem very free spirited, but much of his life has been dictated by a sense of duty. The thought of having something precious to him that chose him specifically of their own free will is... disarming. He's overwhelmed with how helpless you make him feel and how little he despises it.

Yutu's need to be accepted by his father is met and exceeded almost immediately. Lilia wants to cook a big family dinner for Yuu and all of his boys, something that Malleus politely rejects asking if he can instead show his Culinary Crucible skills off to Yutu (it's really so he can make babiest brother promise to never eat anything Paw Paw makes EVER) and it's all so normal Yutu almost forgets that he's listening to a practical god smugly tell him he knows all about edible weeds as his father flies around him cracking jokes and pinching his cheeks. His older brother is asleep on the couch waiting for the food to be done and his precious parent is helping his Uncle Sebek set the table, listening to him sniffle about how beautiful Master Lilia's family is.

Lilia might be practically retired, but his mind is still sharp. The information Yutu is able to pass on to him lands in good hands. When he tucks Yutu into bed that night, long after the boy has gone to sleep so as not to embarrass him he makes sure to take a good long look at the little miracle. He is beyond grateful Yutu exists, not even the Thorn Fairy could have given him a finer blessing (he'll have to make sure to tease you about that later, that's got to be a good pick up line) He will make sure that this risk his son has taken pays off, Lilia Vanrouge wasn't feared for no reason. Something it seems some foolish mortals need reminding of.

Trunk or Treat with The Yandere Student Council Pt. I

Based Off the OCs in this Post

“Alright everyone let’s start talking about ideas!” 

“Uhm do you mean ideas for what to do with Halloween coming?”

“Oh no darling, we always do a Trunk or Treat kind of thing.”

“We are talking about our costumes.”

As bizarre as it sounds the college’s students look forward to the costumes of the student council

Allowed to enjoy whatever festivity that comes with their choice

For reference they share that last year they had a ‘kiss–in–the–coffin’ booth for their shared vampire costumes

“J-j-just so you know the kisses were on the cheek only!”

“I didn’t ask but okay.”

It set the precedent for this year to be just amazing if not better

“Since we have you now (Y/n) we should have something special that welcomes you in!”

“I-i-i-i think that’s a great idea.”

“I’m all for it too!”

Despite your protests, in fear of being singled out by their fans your haters they forge on

“They won’t be bothering you. Not on my watch.”

“You say that but–”

“Seriously (Y/n) believe us! We’ll make sure there won’t be any problems.”

“And if there are we will kill them.”

“What?!”

“Joking. Joking.”

They’re not

Anyway it was decided on that the council will be Ghostly Royalty

Which makes costumes really easy or so you thought 

According to Min, quite a large part of the budget went into your costumes

“Pick your jaw up (Y/n)! This is the best part! You don’t think we get this big of a budget without showing off, do you?”

“Still…it feels a bit overkill…especially when I don’t have a fan base at all.”

“Ohhh that’s what you think–ow!” 

“Roman, always such an optimistic chatterbox. Always saying things that are not true.”

Lucoa takes the role of the king naturally

Spencer is forcefully given the role of the queen

Min takes the role of the dungeon master, despite his meek character

Roman takes the role of an advisor

Gil as a duke

June as a duchess

“Wait so what am I?”

“Our dragon.”

“What?!”

“We wanted to put a spin on the old system!”

“But that isn’t really accurate…nor does it really fit the ghost royalty theme.”

“.....”

“....”

“So? We’re doing fantasy ghosts then.”

In your opinion, it's just an excuse to make your costume as ridiculous as they please

“This is an early draft of your costume.”

“What!? Wait where are the actual clothes? I’m just seeing gold necklaces and bangles.”

“...That was the idea.”

“I’m not wearing that if there aren’t actual clothes underneath there.”

“...But it will ruin the integrity of the design and disrupt the choreography and–”

“Then hide it under the gold! I’m not going to be half-naked for the entire school.”

“...I will consult the President.”

You owed him a favor after that

Saying you agreed to this as an honorary member

But when you’re not having to fight Gill on your costume designs

You are helping the others

“June…this is just a dress.”

“Right, it’s a perfect occasion to wear it. And don’t my hips feel and look great.”

Adjusting the golden belt meant to hang off his waist you try to ignore how his poses requires that he touch you in some way shape or form

“Well yeah but don’t you feel like your fans would want you in something else?”

“Oh baby! You don’t have to worry, they love this sort of thing.”

And helping with their research

“Roman I know you never seem to run out of ideas to hang out but why a medieval diner?”

“It's for research! By the way, how do you like the food? I made sure the critiques were as positive as they could get.”

“Roman.”

“Yes?”

“Why did that waitress, compliment our relationship?”

“OMG they brought another plate of bread and for free? So cool.”

“Roman!”

Or helping organize their booths

“So Spencer what are you going for?”

“A kind of dunk tank except it drops on me.”

“Oh okay….this says that you’re not actually using water but…oil?”

“Yeah Lucoa suggested I show off my scars and muscles.”

“Wait you have those?”

“Hahaha very funny but seriously give me your opinion.”

“Oh wow….yeah, I think they’ll like it…no they’ll love it.”

“Oh really? Well, thanks!”

As if he didn’t already know

But eventually as the date comes closer it comes time to focus on your booth

But it seems that as an honorary member you don’t get to have much control over your own booth

Or any decision involving your event

“Hey Min what are you building over there?”

“Oh this is the art for your exhibit. Lucoa put me in charge of matching the gold from your costume to the setting around there.”

“Aw thanks can I help?”

“N-n-no!”

“Oh.”

“S-s-s-sorry the President gave us explicit instructions not to include you in the making of it. I’m r-r-r-r-really so sorry!”

“It’s fine Min, don’t worry about it.”

It’s just so apparent how little you would be included in your own activity no one really bothered to hide that fact from you

“Hey Gill this meeting on your calendar, I don’t remember getting your usual reminder for it.”

“That is because you are not invited to it.”

“Don’t be sad (Y/n)~Afterwards we can just come visit you after.”

“No no that’s okay I’ll just take the day off then. Catch up on homework.”

“Aw~ Don’t be like that we’ll come over to your house after.”

“No I’m not sad. I’m going to be happily doing my homework alone!”

“Putting that on our private calendar: Going to (Y/n)’s house an hour after the meeting.”

At the end of the day you’re just as surprised when the event begins and they shove you in the room under the stage with nothing but a warning not to move from the chair you’re in:

[x-liv25-jamieswife]

my long ass avery rant that might not make sense but i love her and needed to make this.

a huge rant about my love for avery (i swear im not hating on anyone (except for avery haters... sort of. i respect your opinion but...)) i think the end of my rant makes more sense than the beginning...

IVE MADE A POST ABOUT THIS BUT ILL SAY IT AGAIN. STOP OVERLOOKING AVERY'S TRAUMA. SHE IS SO UNDERRATED AND SUCH A COMPLEX CHARACTER AND I CAN'T STAND PEOPLE IGNORING HER. PEOPLE IN THIS FANDOM BARELY POST ABOUT HER AND IT'S UNBEARABLE (LIKE NO HATE CAUSE I LOVE ALL THE LYRA POSTS BUT HOW ARE PEOPLE POSTING MORE ABOUT A CHARACTER NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT AND NOT AVERY??? LIKE I SAID NOT HATE, I EAT THE LYRA POSTS UP).

she's literally the best character in the series. the brothers don't even come close to her. people who are mad at her for not picking grayson can actually just shove it up their ass bc gray and avery would've never worked out in the long run. avery is a queen and i see people hating on her for so many stupid reasons. not picking gray? giving away the money? being an emily 2.0????????????????????????????? don't even dare compare my queen, my love, my everything to that wretched beast who is now rotting in a coffin underground. some people making reviews on goodreads seriously need to get a life and touch some grass.

as im rereading the main trilogy, i'm writing down quotes from avery so i can make an in depth analysis of her character. it might suck and it will definitely be multiple parts but if no one is gonna acknowledge her trauma, i will. i'm sick and tired of people constantly ranting about grayson and other characters when avery is literally the main character. none of this series would exist if it weren't for avery. the fact that some people are willing to defend their favorite characters when they hurt avery is so so sad to me. like, i love jameson with my entire heart, but treating avery like a puzzle and messing with her self esteem was not cool of him. same goes for grayson and him treating avery like a shitty gold digger who 'hasn't struggled like he has'

i've made posts about this before but i feel the need to make another one. i've seen people defend grayson for treating avery like shit in the first book (some people do it as a joke which is fine but some people are actually serious and it confuses me??). i get that grayson was mad and disappointed that his grand father disinherited him after a lifetime of being told he was going to inherit. his feelings were 100% valid. did he have the right to take it out on avery though? no. not at all. this girl is even more confused that he is and has been nothing but kind to him. him invalidating her feelings and treating her like crap is just so shitty of him. don't get me wrong. he has redeemed himself and i do love him, but seeing people defending him (in a serious way) just gets on my nerves. would you like to be treated the way avery was in tig? i think not.

i'm not as mad about jameson bc 1. he apologized on 'screen' and 2. i don't see people defending him as much as grayson (i don't think i've ever seen a post defending him which is good). i love him too, and what he did was also horrible. i better not ever see a post defending him. his actions are explainable but that doesn't justify them. he really messed with avery's self-esteem, so much as to make her doubt his feelings towards her. the only reason i'm not as mad as with the grayson situation is bc i don't see people defending him as passionately (if at all).

i see this happen in so many fandoms. people gush over the male love interest or the male main character and completely ignore the fmc. the only fandom i don't see this happening in is the folk of the air fandom. jude is getting the attention she deserves which makes me so happy. people willingly ignore what the fmc goes through at the hands of their favorite male character just bc they love them and that is just so absurd to me.

anyways, avery has been through so much fucking trauma it would take me hours to go through it all. she grew up with almost no one by her side, learning how to take care of/protect herself, lost her mother at 15, her best friend moved away a few years before her mom died, her father treated her like dog shit and completely ignore her for her entire life until she inherited the money, she lived in her car, worked her ass off at school and at work to simply keep herself alive, had to deal with drake (although she wasn't his girlfriend, he clearly affected her if she was willing to move into her car bc of him), was almost killed by drake (and, indirectly, skye), sheffield, and eve (and kidnapped by sheffield), it was mentioned in tfg (i believe) that there were other attempts on her life in between thl and tfg, dealt with people constantly belittling her trauma (and her) and saying horrible things about her, she deals with horrible panic attacks after everything she's been through, also deals with crappy self esteem (that was made worse by some of the hawthornes), her privacy was constantly invaded, and, this one is more subtle, but there are instances where she thinks (or does) self harm (like the scene in thl where she's purposefully trying to hurt herself by punching the brick wall blocking off toby's wing. both oren and jameson had to step in to help her). all of these things clearly affected her but barely anyone talks about it? i'm probably missing some things but i just wish she got more attention. she is one of the most forgiving (literally too forgiving. she's willing to forgive people so easily bc she wants to be wanted (but doesn't want to want to be wanted) and have friends)

this girl is much stronger than anyone gives her credit for (the hawthornes would never survive in the 'asylum where they raised her' (whos afraid of little old me by taylor is definitely her song)). this rant is probably all over the place and is really long (but definitely won't be the last). thank you for attending my ted talk.

[theshippirate22]

listen when i say eddie and corroded coffin made it and they get super rich and famous, i do in fact know they are the metalist, ozzy-esque, headbangy metal band ever. that being said, i also wholeheartedly believe he’s like the taylor swift of metal okay every song is about a real person he knew and he is name dropping and DRAGGING people through the mud.

new song becomes the anthem to fighting haters? yeah it’s about jason carver

that one deep cut on the album that’s about being horribly afraid of dying young? who the hell is chrissy and why does he name drop her every chorus?

ex- boyfriends (and maybe girlfriends?? the fandom isn’t sure but the names are blurring together), wayne, “robbie and nance” make the bridge of Badass Bitches, and Dustin, who we know isn’t an ex because Eddie calls him a kid almost every time he makes an appearance in a song.

And then there’s Sagittarius. This faceless, nameless entity that Eddie ALWAYS sings about. nobody knows anything about them. are they a real person or eddie’s personal god? man or woman? friend or lover? nobody’s got a clue.

all anyone knows about Sagittarius is that they’ve got “skin like sun,” they “taste like nectar,” there’s “power coming straight from their fingers” and their name- Sagittarius- comes from a dotting of moles and freckles on their shoulder that make out the constellation.

in interviews, eddie’s answers are always vague. “they’re my muse,” he says in response to any question regarding Sagittarius’ identity. sometimes he gets asked why he doesn’t name drop them if they’re so important. “i don’t want anybody to take ‘em from me.” eddie answers, grinning coyly.

super fans have tried to piece it together. tried to see if one of the people he’s always with actually is a Sagittarius and the moles are metaphorical or something

(it’s not going to work. steve’s a libra)

[thespianinthebackcorner]

Hot take but I genuinely think bringing Pearl and Marina back was one of the worst things Splatoon 3 could've done. Pre-Side Order, pretty much every set of idols got talked about equally. Then out comes side order giving us more pearlina content and boom, the only people giving attention to the squid sisters and deep cut (ESPECIALLY deep cut) is their diehard fans. Before that, Deep Cut got just as much attention as any new set of idols would, taking their proper spotlight. Now all I see from this commity is pearlina. It was boring the first time around and it's boring now. I don't hate pearlina as a ship, I see the point, but this new Splatfest song is really the nail in the coffin. I see everyone talking about Pearl and Marina's part and no one even sparing a thought to the Squid Sisters or Deep Cut. Soz for being a hater, but I genuinely think this games community would be better if we'd stayed away from bringing these two back.

I don't understand that section of the LiS fanbase, at all

I'll never understand folks who sacrifice Chloe and also gush over how cute she is with Max or how cool of a character she is. Okay, don't murder her then. Is there something I'm missing? Her life or death is up to you. If you decide to kill her, then she obviously is not that important to you. Certainly not your "number one priority".

Go bask in your glory of an everyday hero who'd be willing to kill their own friend for "the greater good" instead of crying crocodile tears over Chloe's coffin.

An especially egregious example of such mentality is fetishizing Chloe as a "tragic" character, a member of the 27 Club with an 8 year head start. Dude, you're the one turning her life story into a tragedy. You're the one killing her. You're the one depriving her of a happy ending, of a fresh start. I don't understand the morbid interest in Chloe's story viewed through that lens.

The story of a troubled kid who everyone gave up on, including her family, her friends and even herself, who died a stupid death that could've been prevented had she had at least one person standing in her corner (but as it turned out, there was nobody willing to stick by her) is not interesting or captivating. It's simply revolting. And to tell you the truth, quite unoriginal in its inhumanity and banal in its cruelty. Look out the window and you'll see hundreds of stories like that. Is this the sort of tale you wish to write with your choices?

At least I can understand Chloe Price haters. They sacrifice Chloe, because they are lusting to murder the person they are seething with hatred towards. They sacrifice Chloe, because they are deriving sick pleasure from handing down the death penalty for the unforgivable crime of being a troubled teen. That mindset is condemnable, but I can at least understand it, even though I would never think or feel that way, not about Chloe, not about anyone else.

But I cannot comprehend the mindset of celebrating the character that you judged unworthy of survival, less important than others, whose life you chose to spend as a resource. We get it, you performed the incredibly complex analysis of "one is less than multiple", you proved you possess "the strongest of wills to make the hardest of choices".

You decided that there were others "who should live way more" than Chloe and you swung the headman's axe. I salute both your strength to usurp for yourself the right to judge who is more worthy of life and your courage to immediately kill to enforce your swift and wise judgement. I personally, being a coward, faced with a choice to sacrifice a human life to stop a tornado would refuse to do so and let the events unfold, as I feel I am in no position to ever judge who should live and who should die. I guess that's just my weakness and liberal, tree-hugging concern for human dignity speaking.

But could you please stop smiling over the coffin of your victim? Could you please stop recollecting all the moments of joy and friendship that you selfishly decided to take back, that you erased, that you prevented from ever hapening? Could you please stop celebrating the friend that you used for five days to make yourself feel better about your past mistakes and to go through a coming-of-age adventure, who you then discarded like a toy you got bored with, making sure that she never experienced any of the things you did?

Go have fun with all the people you saved instead of performatively mourning the person whose life you deemed so insignificant you chose to willingly cause her death.

In her darkest moment she said she didn't deserve Max's love and friendship, that she didn't even deserve to live. And instead of proving her wrong, uplifiting her, giving a chance to begin again somewhere the past would hold no dominion over her, you chose to prove her right. Denying her a chance at life, you pushed her back into the quagmire of the past, to drown.

Sadistic fate set her up as the Price to be paid. And in your blind obedience to evil destiny, you chose to pay with her life. Whether that made you feel bad or sad was irrelevant to her as she died alone, abandoned and afraid, in a pool of her own blood.

On a related note, don't you think Bay Max keeping Chloe's belongings is deeply disturbing? The belongings of a girl who saw Max for the last time five years ago? I'm fairly certain that if you asked the Monday, pre-parking lot Chloe (so the one who is murdered) if she wished for her personal belongings to pass to Max in case of her death, she would respond with an emphatic "no". I wonder, would Bay Max lie to Joyce, telling her that she got to reconnect with Chloe before her murder (she didn't, since she erased all the time she had spent with Chloe). This only goes to show that Bay Max is totally out of character - basically a creepy body snatcher.

Ok cool, now that they've put the final nail in the coffin I am coming out as a s2 hater. It had its moments (all of them were Izzy) but it's kinda clear that s1 was lightning in a bottle and whatever story they're trying to tell isn't a story of queer joy and healing.

On 20th March 2013, Miya Atsumu’s soulmate’s voice manifested clearly inside his head. All of his excitement and anticipation from months of waiting for his soulmate went down the drain from only four words.

“I don’t want you.”

It was a boy, that’s all Atsumu could tell. He sounded young, probably younger than him. That was the only thing he knew about his soulmate.

The rejection was already devastating, but the silence from his soulmate after days, months even, of begging, demanding for answers, was what prompted Atsumu to finally give up on everything he had ever wanted.

He fell on bad habits, drinking away his sorrows and fooling around. Upon seeing Osamu’s devastation at his self destruction, Atsumu stopped and started recovering.

On his second year of playing with MSBY Black Jackals, his soulmate reached out to him again.

“Hey.”

Atsumu almost flubbed his game. Despite the obvious concern from his teammates, he gritted his teeth and continued. His silence towards his soulmate felt damning but a big part of him was petty, still heartbroken from the rejection.

“I know you’re listening.” His soulmate spoke again, when Atsumu was in the locker room. He’d won the game, but he still feel defeated.

He had plenty of questions but Atsumu didn’t want to talk to someone who didn’t want him.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry for rejecting you. I’m sorry for hurting you. I’m sorry I wasn’t ready for you.” The voice said, almost desperate with remorse. Atsumu was on the bus back to the team’s dormitory.

He ignored his soulmate.

“If.. you ever find it in you to talk to me again, to fix this, you can find me. My name.. is Sakusa Kiyoomi.”

Atsumu cracked a small, hollowed smile in his kitchen. He wasn’t surprised. He’d known since Kiyoomi had opened his mouth to introduce himself back in training camp.

The confirmation felt like a nail on his coffin. He’d known.

That felt a lot like his downfall. Kiyoomi didn’t know it was him. How could he, when he refused to even give Atsumu a chance to talk?

So, out of the goodness of his heart, he decided to give his soulmate a proper farewell.

“I don’t want ya either.”

There was stunned silence. He knew Kiyoomi had heard him. He knew Kiyoomi knew who he was. He smiled, empty and bitter as he listened to the pleas that filtered through his mind before finally putting up the walls that blocked his soulmate from invading his head, just the way Kiyoomi had done after his rejection.

He knew he was being petty, cruel, but he never wanted to chase after people who didn’t want him. Not when he was in middle school, shunned by his peers, not when his haters jeered at him, especially not now when his own soulmate had rejected him.

Everything comes in full circle when Atsumu shows up to MSBY’s recent try outs and comes face to face with the regret and frustration on the face of his soulmate, Sakusa Kiyoomi. Atsumu feels rattled but keeps his composure, even though he can feel his soulmate’s stare heavy on his back.

When the official recruits join their team, Atsumu isn’t surprised that Kiyoomi got in. MSBY would’ve been idiots if they rejected someone as talented as him. The newly reformed team goes out for drinks.

Like any other social groups, their topic gravitates towards soulmates. Atsumu tries not to feel bitter as Meian recounts his meeting with his soulmate, but both of them choose to remain platonic. She was his “best man” at his wedding. Or that Shoyou had always known his soulmate was Kageyama Tobio from their first meeting. Or how Keiji had never told him to shut up during work whenever Koutarou went on mental spiels on their link.

Of course, the conversation lands on Atsumu, because nobody was brave enough to bother Kiyoomi and his vicious, cold glares.

“What about you, Atsumu-san?” Oh so sweet Shoyou asks innocently.

The older members exchange looks. Koutarou outwardly winces. Shoyou looks at them, confused. Atsumu keeps his eyes on his glass, avoiding Kiyoomi’s gaze on him like he’d been doing the whole time.

“He didn’t want me.” Atsumu says offhandedly. At Shoyou’s stunned look, he hurries to say, “ ‘s okay. I don’t want him either. I don’t make a habit of wantin’ people who don’t want me. I made peace with it.”

“Still.” Koutarou pouts. “You’re his soulmate. Aren’t soulmates meant to be? You can’t just reject them!”

Atsumu smiles as he drinks. He meets Kiyoomi’s gaze unwaveringly as he says, “even fate makes mistakes, it seems.”

For the first time that night, Kiyoomi speaks; “Maybe they had their reasons.”

The team looks at him with varying degree of concerns and suspicion. Atsumu chuckles without humor.

“Maybe he did, but I ain’t gonna stick around and find out. I don’t give second chances.” He slams his empty glass on the table, startling everyone.

“That was fun, but imma dip.” He says, standing up. Atsumu lets his gaze roam his new team, but pointedly skips over Kiyoomi. “I gotta help out ‘Samu with his shop tomorrow so I can’t do much fun shit tonight.”

He can tell that Kiyoomi wants to leave, wants to catch up to him and get them to talk. When his soulmate stands, Atsumu brushes past him, completely shutting down any of his attempts.

He’d been hurt once. Never again.

Atsumu doesn’t give second chances, even if it’s his soulmate.

Thunder and rain on my armies but nobody

Rip off your flesh and I'm spreading the toxins

Ingested the way you be slurring your brain

Mercy no way I send the mage to the dungeon

To Splash on the cauldron and get

Off with his head fuck all that planning man

I want him dead I want to laugh at the coffin

While everyone filling with dread

Yeah you heard what I said

I slammed the body and choked them

But want to leave holes with the led

Until his body is fed I snapped the limbs

Like a hobby and ate up the bones for

The marrow and then I just left

I need some guidance I need me Allah

Don't need no features I make me a lot

I want to swallow her spit till her makeup

Is coming right off look at her watching

She know all my songs leather the fit

And her wings really strong I want to

Manifest watching her lock and I

Think she's the devil the way

That she's giving me top

Because I can't be fucked with the fakes

Fuck all these pussy ass haters you all just want

To suck from the clout that I earned from the

Pain out of my body escape levitation

With the depth from the mage

Warlord the hate I just embodied the rage

Until everything else disappears

Ohh yeah, some Lestat haters insist he made Claudia sleep there maliciously! Even though it contradicts other scenes & there are way more rational explanations. I'm not denying Lestat's abusive, controlling, dominant etc, as he was in the book, but he still has reasons for his actions (sometimes even good reasons!) and fans who reduce him to this boogeyman figure who does everything for the evulz are going to be SO pressed when the show starts doing a more nuanced, sympathetic take on him.

Hmm, yeah, well "malicious" is like the last thing Lestat is actually^^.

(But I do get why they could think that at this point, if they only come from the show. That will (need to) change though.)

The thing is... within a universe, or a tale, the things have their place and reason.

Now Louis has his own reasons, and we can only speculate about them right now. But the things we have seen in-universe cannot be just dismissed. There was a reason we were shown these things, aka the items left in front of their door, the spell circles, the voodoo dolls, the bibles... someone wanted them gone, and someone knew enough of what they were. People were onto them. Heck, Tom Anderson was onto them.

Lestat did love Claudia, and he did want to protect her and Louis. I am not defending all the other shit he did here, but negating his feelings or protective instincts towards (both) his fledglings just won't hold.

And... I just want to point out the Stepford-Mom-"come to coffin" scene... funny on the outside, yes.

Granted, there was paranoia at play at this point, too.

But Lestat is afraid there. Afraid.

And not of Louis or Claudia.

He planned with them. Bought tickets. Despite the sniping. Despite the anger. Despite the complications. Despite the aggravation. Despite knowing she is trying to kill him by then. He's in this for the long run.

It's why he goes after them to Paris, too.

[bg3fandomcritical-active]

I feel like people either forget or willingly look over the fact that Astarion was literally being forced to kidnap people by Cazador. And, he wasn't alone. We don't know how many he took personally and how many his siblings kidnapped.

He isn't compelled by his master during the game because the Tadpole broke the connection.

He tell you multiple times that he didn't have a choice and was punished if he ever did try to disobey Cazador. He was literally trapped inside a coffin for a year when he did.

I'm not a big Astarion fan, but I do find it crazy Astarion’s haters seem to think he was willingly complacent.

Just because he approves of some evil actions in the game, which tbh is mostly a trauma response but I am not going to delve into that here.

Not everyone is going to come out of 200 years of servitude, of being forced into the role of a monster, with their morals and ethics intact.

I'm not saying that everyone has to give him empathy or excuse his behaviour because he is a victim. I'm saying that people need to recognise that he is a victim.

Two hundred years and he still isn't technically free when we meet him. Which explains why he acts the way he does. If you call him out on his behaviour, and refuse to humour him while remaining a beacon of hope and heroism you can get his good ending.

His story is a redemption story after all.

Not every story has to be about people remaining steadfast in their morals and ethics despite years of abuse. And also, people deserve the chance to get better and change. It's fine if you don't want to be the person to do that.

Hello 👋🏽 so this might not sound like I’m complementing you but I am

When I first found your page I just thought you were a hater with no life.. I think I found you when season four aired and I saw you talking about the Iris situation and let me just say I think I hold the crown for the biggest Carlos hater during season 4, they made me hate him but everytime I would look at your page I would be like we get it so why are you talking about him this much then. I wasn’t really involved in the fandom or has obsessed in the show back then as I am now and I have come to absolutely love tk, and I have found my group of friends on Twitter who love him also. from the moment I came into this fandom it was blatantly obvious biased towards Rafa/carlos (I mean we all saw how fast they were to never talk about ronen again..)that I just didn’t understand, it’s like they foams at the mouth anytime they talk about Rafa/carlos

The Carlos Stan’s have gotten a lot worse imo and we need tk defenders more then ever

What I’m trying to say is I used to see you and go if you don’t like something why are you talking about it but I never said that to people saying the nice things about the characters which is unfair cause we shouldn’t push people who are rightfully calling out characters too the side and make them talk about it with just there friends, if people can say good things, other people can be critical and we need people like you more then ever. Thank you for constantly calling out Carlos cause the watered down “criticism” he gets is such bs

He was not the best boyfriend, definitely not the best fiancée and he’s not gonna be the best husband in the beginning and I’m so tired of these women who are old enough too realize what he does is wrong making excuses after excuses and babying him so much. I think tk deserves way better instead of a man who constantly lies and puts things/people above him then crawls back crying when the damage is done

So just thank you for not stopping with this account cause this fandom is truly delusional when it comes to Carlos and then that fuck ass spinoff they want to do? With his partner who he has “special chemistry” with…

Thank you! I know that I can be very annoying sometimes hahaha.

I’m so frustrated about how TK is often treated by the fandom and the writers. He was criticized for not being ready for a relationship with Carlos, even if he was recovering from a relapse after the boyfriend he proposed to said he was in love with another guy (and probably cheated on him). He was blamed for the breaking up with Carlos after Carlos triggered him by making a big decision that affected both of them without talking to him first, and no one (not the fandom, not the writers) recognized that his motives for the break up were valids. The amount of hate he got just because Cooper was his sponsor was horrifying.

Carlos hiding a marriage, being so dismissive of TK with the wife jokes, blaming TK for Iris disappearance and acting so hostile towards TK was objectively so much worse than any mistake that TK did in their relationship, but I saw feel people calling him out on his bulshit. People even found Iris interactions with TK funny. Everything was fine as long as their favorite could get alway with it. The double standards where very clear.

(It’s so sad how TK has such a kind heart and loves so big)

(Yet no one ever chooses him first)

(Owen with his job)

(Carlos with Iris)

When I saw the news about Carlos and his partner who he has “special chemistry” with was the nail in the coffin for me. Like, nope. I already know where this is going. People will ship Carlos with his partner (even if he turns out to be in a happy relationship) and compare him with TK, how he is so much better and supportive tham TK and Carlos definitely should be with him instead, especially during the probable Jonah arc.I'm not gonna put myself into that.

Danny was amazed at how she looked in a ponytail. Or he would if not because the girl he likes had just transformed into a superhero. The boy couldn't believe his eyes as he watched the girl open a portal and jump into it.

As the flash of light engulfed the disappearing portal, Danny was in shock as he wondered about going through it when he had the chance.

"Wow," Danny said, still amazed that Marinette was Ladybug.

After Danny snapped out of his amazement that Marinette was Ladybug. "Wait, if Marinette turned into Ladybug, something is happening in Paris," Danny thought.

"Maybe she needs some ghostly help," Danny had a smirk.

The ghost boy headed back to Fenton Works to go to the Far Frozen to get the Infimap so he could help out Marinette if she needed it.

Paris

Marinette made it back home. She took a deep breath, feeling relieved to be home, only to see that it had vines and overgrown trees all around the city.

"Whoever got akumatized must like plants; it's like a greenhouse," Marinette said to herself before swinging through the city to find the akumatized person and Cat Noir.

As she swung around the forest like Paris, Ladybug thought about Danny and those pictures he took of the coffin and tablet.

'What if Danny finds out I'm Ladybug? Then what am I going to do?' She thought to herself before an idea sprung. 'Maybe I can borrow the mouse Miraculous to show that Marinette and Ladybug are not the same person in the mask-like I did with Cat Noir. Maybe make sure the fake me is far enough for him not to reach her in time.'

As she came up with the idea of using the same plan she did with Cat Noir, almost discovering who she was, the superhero stopped to see a sight.

She found Cat Noir fighting against vines.

"Come on! I know I need more greens, but this is ridiculous!" Cat Noir said as he used his staff and spun it to keep the vines away.

"Never thought I'd be happy to see him..." Ladybug said under her breath as she swung in to join him. "I take it that's not lunch?" She asks cheekily.

Cat Noir smiled.

"Milady... nice of you to join the party."

"Sorry, had something distracting me... what's going on?" She asks.

"Wow, you were definitely distracted... these vines came out and took over the city." Cat Noir said

before noticing something behind her, about to reach her. "Watch out!"

To her surprise, Cat Noir jumped over her and struck a vine with his staff.

"Huh?!" Ladybug went.

"These vines are alive... don't let them grab you!" He said.

Ladybug noticed two vines were reaching them and now realized why they were dangerous.

"Got it!" She said, swinging her yo-yo with such speed that it cut the two vines.

"DON'T LET THESE PLANT HATERS STOP YOU!" A female voice called out.

Ladybug stopped, hearing that voice.

"What was that?!" She asks, noticing in time a vine and jumping out of the way.

"I think it's the akumatized villain. I don't know where she is." Cat Noir said as he swung his staff again and knocked a vine. "Back! Back you veggie!"

Ladybug nodded before stepping out of the way of a vine.

"Come on! I eat my vegetables!" She said.

"What is your problem, plant person?!" Cat Noir called out.

"My problem is you don't respect nature!" She called out in response.

That distracted them enough for a vine to wrap around Ladybug's ankle, pulling her up and making her drop her yo-yo.

"W-What?!" Ladybug went.

"Ladybug!" Cat Noir called out before a vine wrapped around prevented him from saving her.

"Okay... what now?" Ladybug asks as the vine lifter her higher.

Meanwhile, a certain someone watching grinned.

"Excellent... you have them. Now... take their Miraculous!"

"I will... but you didn't say I needed them to be alive to do it... So TOSS HER AND LET HER DROP!"

With that, the vine did as ordered, tossing Ladybug several feet up after carrying her over 50 stories into the air.

Worse, she had no idea how to survive without that yo-yo.

"No, no, no, no, no..." Ladybug muttered.

"Ladybug!" Cat Noir called out.

Gasping for ideas, she had one thing on her mind.

Guess I don't have to worry about Danny finding out anymore...

It was then someone swooped in.

That person caught her and landed safely, one knee-buckling upon impact.

Opening her eyes, Ladybug realized she was being carried in bridal fashion by another. She looked up and saw who it was.

"For a ladybug, you don't do a lot flying, do you?" Danny Phantom joked.

For a brief moment, Ladybug's cheeks turned pink, realizing who this was.

"Danny... Phantom?" She asks.

Cat Noir, though relieved she was fine, pouted.

"Hey! She's my partner!" He called out before finally getting the strength to break free.

Ladybug just kept staring at Danny Phantom even as he put her back on her feet.

"You know... you can go back to saving the day now..." He says with a cheeky smirk.

"Huh?" She then recalled what she was doing and nervously laughed. "Right! Of course... Also, quick question, what are you doing here?"

"Uh, I'll answer that later, Ladybug. Now I'm going to put these plants on ice, and then I can talk." Danny went intangible and froze the vines' roots, causing the vines to welt.

"Huh... cool." Ladybug said with a smile, much to Cat Noir's irritation.

Danny phase backed up and had a smirk on his face.

"Well, that's that, Ladybug. Those vines won't be bothering the famous Ladybug and Cat duo anymore, and best stuff them in the freezer." He said, earning a chuckle from Ladybug.

"You seem a bit cocky there, Spooky. We still have to deal with the person with the Akuma; this is our department." Cat Noir said, trying not to sound jealous.

They were about to look for the akumazatized person until a giant tree using its roots to walk like a person, got in their way. The tree had a ma face on its trunk, sharp pointy teeth, and anger-like eyes. On the top of the tree trunk was a girl wearing a dark green jumpsuit with black across the arms. She had a black mask around her eyes. She had purple lipstick and a microphone on her hip.

'Sam!?' Danny thought as he saw his best friend staring at the three heroes.

'Sam, what happened to you?' Danny thought as he saw his friend come out of the tree.

"And you are?" Cat Noir asked.

"Ragtash. The voice of nature, and I'm here to give Paris a new tune of color." The girl's megaphone turned into a flute and blew on her instrument as plants came alive, slithering like charmed snakes.

The three heroes avoided the plants from crushing them like ants. Instead, Cat Noir and Ladybug used their weapons to block the vines from snatching them up.

Sam played her flute again, and two giant venus fly traps sprouted from the ground and lunged at the two french heroes. Ladybug and Cat Noir dodge the venus fly traps by doing backflips.

"You really like your greens, don't you, Veggie Girl?" Cat Noir quipped.

"You haven't seen anything yet, you alley cat," Sam blew into her flute, and the two venus fly traps charged at Cat Noir and Ladybug. But, before the fly traps could get to them, they were frozen solid by Danny Phantom, freezing the roots of the plant.

"Stop!" Danny called out, getting her attention.

"Danny, what are you doing here, and why are you here helping these heroes?" Ragtash asked him.

"I thought of seeing the sights of Paris and my superhero peers, not so much a repeat of what happened with Undergrowth," Danny answered.

"I bet you are only here to see Ladybug!" Ragtash had a jealous tone in her voice and started to play the flute as the fly traps lunged at Danny.

Danny began to dodge the Venus Fly traps and fired at them with his ghost ray.

"I know you have a green thumb, Sam, but this is ridiculous and life-threatening," Danny said.

"I think I just heard that Phantom knows the Akumazatized Villian. Cat Noir, he might know something." Ladybug told him.

"Well, Bugaboo, that girl must have been the exchange student who got akumatized, and Phantom is well known there. So he might have the answer." Cat Noir explained.

Ladybug and Cat Noir dodged a Venus fly trap trying to eat them.

Cat Noir leaped behind it and swung his staff at some starving fly traps. He then started making stab motions at them like a lion tamer, cornering the plants away.

Ladybug swung her yo-yo at the plants, tilting them up as Danny froze them solid.

The cat boy twirled his staff as he smiled.

"I guess I'm a new kind of tamer. Paws off to us." He said with a playful bow.

Ladybug rolled her eyes playfully as Danny leaned on the icy plants.

"If you're gonna say we're like the circus, I do not wanna be the bearded lady."

Chat Noir laughed with Ladybug as Ragtash growled.

"You think you're so funny!?" She shouted, stomping on the ground in rage. "Well, how about a different tune?! I'm sure you will turn a new leaf to this!"

"Ugh... I know you're trying to be clever, but stick to one theme!" Danny brought up.

Ragtash ignored that and blew on her instrument loudly. The ground began turning into a grassy field as trees sprouted everywhere, separating the group. After a few seconds, she pointed to the new forest.

"Fine... how's this?!" She asks.

"Very tacky." Ladybug said.

"How's this for tacky?!" Ragtash shouted as she pointed at her. "Fire!"

The trees aimed and did as ordered. Ladybug was quick and jumped away, dodging wood fired at her like bullets. She used her yo-yo to defected a piece of wood from hitting her.

Meanwhile, Cat Noir was blocking the wood from the tree, firing from its branches with his staff. Roots began to rise from the ground and tried to grab Cat Noir by the ankles; a ghost ray hit the roots.

"Oh, it's you again, Spooky, milady's new admirer." Cat Noir said with a jealous look in his eye.

"The name Danny Phantom, cat boy, and not here to steal her... not that I mind if she shows interest," Danny said with a small smirk.

"It's Cat Noir, but that for the save, Spooky, I'll be sure to buy you some Parisian bread as thanks when this is done." Cat Noir smirked.

"No problem, cat boy, just be sure to pony up when we're done." Danny grinned at Cat Noir.

Danny and Cat Noir worked together to stop the vines and flytraps from attacking them with Danny's ghost blast and Cat Noir's staff. As Danny took down the last vine, he looked at Cat Noir with a smirk.

"Not bad, kitty cat. You could give a few hunters a run for their money back home." Danny said.

"Not bad yourself, Spooky. I'm almost willing actually to buy that bread." Cat Noir quipped back.

As the two nodded, they went through the forest to help Ladybug against Ragtash.

Ragtash aimed for her, and a large chunk of wood was about to hit her when a blast of ecto destroyed it. Then, realizing who it was, she sighed in relief.

"I gotta remember to thank that cute ghost..." She said before turning red and shaking her head. "I mean COOL ghost!"

"Thanks for saving my lady, spooky. That was close." Cat Noir thanked. "If it weren't for you, then Ladybug would have been flattened."

"Well, saving and protecting people is my job even when they are not that thankful. She most likely is." Danny said to the black cat superhero.

"Anyway, we must help Ladybug, or she will be plant food, and she won't be as lovely." Cat Noir snarked as he pole-vaulted to where Ladybug was.

"Yeah, she might be struggling against Ms. Green over there, and I'm pretty sure this double date needs to end soon." Danny quipped as he flew next to the black cat superhero.

Danny and Cat Noir made it where Ladybug and Ragtash were fighting.

"What is the meaning of this? I know we need to protect the environment, but that doesn't mean plants need to take over," Ladybug whirled her yo-yo as she and Ragtash circled each other.

Ragtash looked particularly angry, ready to turn the girl into fertilizer.

"And what do you think is better? Waiting for a pompous politician to step down or finally grow a brain to get the job done?!" Ragtash yelled. "Have you seen America? We have to fight for what's right!"

Ragtash and Ladybug fought in hand-to-hand combat, with Ladybug able to dodge Ragtash's punches and kicks with ease. The thing she had to avoid was the senti-Monster's firing stick-like spears.

Danny and Cat Noir came to Ladybug's aid by kicking Ragtash away from her.

"Cat Noir and Phantom at your service, m'Lady," Cat Noir said.

"Thanks for the help, guys," Ladybug said as she smiled at them.

Danny had a small blush on his face. He thought Ladybug's smile was really cute. But, knowing it was Marinette under the mask, he thought the smile was cuter than before.

"Stay away from him," Ragtash said.

Ragtash glared at Ladybug and growled. She didn't want Danny to fall for another superhero he might not have a chance with and take Danny away from her. So she blew her flute, and two vines grew from the ground and lunged at Cat Noir and Ladybug. The two vines stuck Ladybug and Cat Noir on the chest and pinned them down.

"I won't let you take Danny away from me, you pesty Ladybug," Ragtash said.

As the vines pinned down Ladybug and Cat Noir, Danny went over to Ladybug to save her and Cat Noir.

As the vines pinned down Ladybug and Cat Noir, Danny went over to Ladybug to save her and her feline-themed partner. But, unfortunately, Ragtash used her flute, making vines grow Blood Blossom on them. This caused Danny to fall to the ground and start to glow red.

"What wrong with Phantom over there?" Cat Noir asked Ladybug.

"I don't know, but I think those flowers weaken him, like some allergy..." Ladybug theorized.

The Blood Blossom weakened Danny, and he was unable to move. Ladybug and Cat Noir saw this and realized that they needed to find a way to get rid of the Blood Blossoms. Then an idea came to Ladybug as she looked at Cat Noir, the vines, and the Blood Blossoms.

"Cat Noir, use your Cataclysm on the vines, and I'll get Danny out of here, away from those flowers." Ladybug explained to her partner.

"But. how will I get both the vines that are pining us down?" Cat Noir asked.

"Trust me, and I got this." Ladybug said with a wink.

Cat Noir trusted Ladybug and readied his power.

"Cataclysm!"

Ladybug wrapped her yo-yo around the vines as Cat Noir touched the vines with his powers. Then, as the Cataclysm went through both vines, Ladybug unwrapped her Yo-Yo around the vines so it wouldn't get hit by the Cataclysm. This freed the two French heroes, and Ladybug went to Danny and grabbed him by the waist.

"Gotcha!" She said as she felt his side accidentally and blushed. "Oh my... he's a lot more defined than I thought..." She whispered to herself.

Ladybug and Cat Noir went to the city to hide from Ragtash. They went to the sewer, and Ladybug placed Danny down to rest from Blood Blossom, weakened his he going to be okay M'lady?" Cat Noir asked as he hid behind the fork in the sewers.

"I don't know Kitty, but I hope he is. We could use his help." Ladybug said in a concerning tone.

Danny slowly began to wake up. He rubs the back of his head.

"I can't believe Sam would use Blood Blossom on me. We're going to have a long talk." He grumbled.

"Are you alright, Danny? Ladybug asked him.

"Yeah, I'm alright, Ladybug, just a little peeved," Danny answered.

"Why did those flowers affect you like that?" Ladybug asked him.

"Well, Blood Blossom is the few things that can weaken ghost and their powers; being around them is like Superman with Kryptonite," Danny explained. "I just learned about that a month ago."

Ladybug nodded at the ghost boy.

"We must find a way to get that flute away from Ragtash." She said her plan.

"But how are we going to do that? With those Blood Blossoms, it would be impossible for me to go up there and grab the flute." Danny asked her.

Ladybug thought for a moment before the sound of Cat Noir's ring went off.

"Uh... you two plan... I gotta... take care of something." He said as he ran off.

Danny, straining to sit up, stared.

"Bathroom break?" He asks.

"Sort of... long story." She said.

"Well, got an idea for dealing with those vines?" He asks.

"Question, would you be able to use your power from a distance?" She asks.

"Yeah," Danny answered.

"So... would you be able to freeze them from their roots?" Ladybug suggested with a smile.

Danny smiled.

"An idea worth trying." He responded.

Ladybug nodded at the ghost boy.

After Cat Noir returned, Ladybug explained what Danny Phantom would do about the Blood Blossoms and the other plants. The cat theme superhero nodded, and the three went out of the sewers.

Danny goes underground to freeze the root of Ragtash's plants.

As Cat Noir and Ladybug searched for the Akumazited villain, the city became more like a jungle. But then, Ragtash's sentimonster came out of the ground with Ragtash playing her flute to piloting it.

The tree monster then waved its trunk-like arms at the heroes, which both dodged in time. Then, Ragtash played a different tone on her flute that caused Venus fly traps to grow and lunge at the two french heroes. However, before the Venus fly traps could attack them, ice began to rise to the roots of the Venus fly traps, freezing them.

'What is going on, Ragtash?' Hawkmoth asked her.

"Danny must be freezing the root of my plants, so they won't be able to move," Ragtash explained.

'Try and stop that ghost child from doing that and attack Ladybug and Cat Noir,' Hawkmoth said.

As Ragtash tried to blow her flute to gain control of the plants, Ladybug did her Lucky Charm that turned into a frisbee.

"What are you going to do with that? Going to play catch with your black cat?" Ragtash taunted.

Ladybug looked around to see how she would use the Lucky Charm and devised a plan to end this fight. She then devised a plan by throwing the frisbee, which bounced in many directions. Finally, after it bounced off a street lamp, it hit Ragtash's flute.

"No!" Ragtash yelled.

"No!" Hawkmoth also yelled.

"Cataclysm!" Cat Noir leaped into the air and touched the flute, turning back into a bullhorn. It then turns into ash.

A butterfly and a feather came out of the bullhorn and started to fly and float away.

"No more evil-doing for you, little Akuma!" Ladybug said as she opened her yo-yo and spun it around.

"Time to de-evilise," she swung the yo-yo at the Akuma and the Amok, catching them as the yo-yo closed.

"Gotcha!" she got the yo-yo back.

She pressed a button on the Yo-yo then it opened to reveal a white butterfly and a feather flying and floating out of the yo-yo. "Bye Bye little butterfly and bye-bye little feather,"

"Miraculous Ladybug!" Ladybug said as she threw the frisbee in the air; magical Ladybug repaired the city's damage.

Danny had seen a lot of things since getting zapped by the ghost portal, but a swarm of magic ladybugs flying around fixing everything after the battle with a supervillain version of Sam was a new one.

Danny came out of the ground after freezing the roots of Ragtash plants. Sam turned back to normal gripping her head. She was about to fall over before Danny reflexively reached out to catch her, steadying Sam on her feet. Chat noir did the same from her other side "give it a minute. First time Akuma at ions can be rough for people."

"What happened," Sam asked, sounding dazed. "I remember feeling ticked off than a voice in my head something about a miraculous something and blood blossoms then nothing," she said. There was a hint of worry in Sam's eyes when she said blood blossoms looking at him.

Danny's upset feelings about Ragtash using blood blossoms against him were gone from how she described the fight. Instead, it sounded like she had been overshadowed, like when Freakshow had Danny under his control and nearly killed Sam in front of a live audience even though he didn't want to hurt her.

She hadn't held it against him, and he'd be a lousy friend if he held a grudge against her for something she did under someone else's control.

After Sam regains her footing, Danny and Chat Noir go to Ladybug, then Chat Noir and Ladybug fist bump. Ladybug looked at Danny, wanting him to join in their celebratory fist bump , which he did. "Pound it," Ladybug and Chat Noir said.

Thanks to ladybug and chat noir, everything is fine now, citizen," Danny said in his Superhero voice. Sam looked relieved and was more steady on her feet while an older-looking man in a suit with a sash walked over.

Danny guessed he was someone important "Ladybug Chat Noir, on behalf of Paris and project Oxygen, I can't thank you enough for stopping Hawkmoth and this violent protester."

"I'll show him violently," Sam seethed quietly. Danny could practically hear her teeth grinding together.

"Mr. Mayor," Ladybug, aka the girl Danny was going to the dance with, said, stepping forward "you can't possibly blame this girl for her actions being Akumatized," she said around them; a crowd was gathering, a lot of them, Danny noticed had signs against something called project oxygen whatever the heck that was.

The mayor shook his head "of course not, Ladybug, but you don't know this girl. She's in my daughter's class, and even when she is not akumatized, she is abrasive and rude. Today, she nearly incited a violent mob to get her way and stop Project Oxygen," the mayor told the superhero snobbishly.

"That's not true," a short girl with multicolored braids declared. A heavyweight boy nodded, both of them waving their signs.

"It was a peaceful protest," a goth girl said beside her; a girl dressed from head to toe in pink nodded fast.

"Sam hasn't done anything violent," she said, "she's nice."

"Not even to Chloe, who deserves it half the time," a dark-skinned girl muttered.

More and more teenagers chimed in, either sticking up for Sam or talking about how much they hate something called project Oxygen the mayor seemed to be so invested in.

There were even adults now joining the teens.

"Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous who cares about a bunch of dumb trees or a freaky Dupain-Chengs psycho American replacement," a snobby blonde said. At the same time, some nerdy-looking redhead nodded, saying how she agreed with Chloe "daddy, can't you just send her back to her country already" she whined loudly, getting more loud protests from well the teenaged protestors.

"Okay, hold on," Danny and the two French superheroes said at the same time, silencing everyone:

"Okay, why don't we all calm down and talk about this rationally before someone else gets turned into a human meat puppet by the Mothman knockoff."

"Human meat puppet," Ladybug whispered as something about that phrase sounded familiar before she shook her head. "Phantom is right. Let's all calm down before someone gets hurt."

Danny nodded gratefully "now, can someone keyword one tell me what Project Oxygen is," Danny asked.

"I can, Mr. Phantom," the girl with the multicolored braids who had first stuck up for Sam said. Danny nodded.

"Yes, thank you-" Danny paused since he didn't know her name.

"Mylene," Chat noir whispered.

"Mylene," Danny said, "can you please tell me what project oxygen is."

Mylene nodded. "Project Oxygen is a plan proposed by the mayor and the fashion designer Gabriel Agreste to cut down all the trees in Paris and replace them with towers that are supposed to do the same thing that trees do naturally artificially," she explained.

Okay

Wow

No wonder Sam got ticked off so easily.

That had to be, undoubtedly, one of the stupidest things Danny had ever heard.

The box ghost plans of 'Doom' made more sense.

Something Danny said that was out loud.

The blonde brat and her daddy, the mayor, looked offended "ridiculous, utterly ridiculous, who do you think you are."

"Someone who knows more about trees, apparently," Danny said. "Mr. Mayor, did you even consider how your machines would run."

"Run," he asked, confused. He hadn't thought of that.

"Yes, what will make the machines do their job? What are you going to use to power them."

"Oh," the mayor said, "well, obviously, the city power grid."

"Right the city power grid, the thing that most likely takes natural resources to generate power and to run the hundreds, maybe thousands of Project Oxygen towers throughout Paris, would mean more power would need to be generated, which means more pollution from the power plants wouldn't make it."

The mayor opened his mouth to argue, but then he realized Danny was right. "I just wanted to do something good for Paris."

Chat noir stepped toward the mayor "if you want to do something good for Paris, Mr. Mayor, maybe you should listen to the people of Paris," the black-clad superhero suggested. He then looked to Sam and Danny "and its guests."

The mayor nodded "you're absolutely right, Chat noir. I'll cancel everything; I'll plant more trees, I'll turn the project oxygen towers already made into recycling bins, I'll, I'll-"

"Apologize to Sam Manson," Mylene suggested.

"Yea, I'll apologize," the mayor said. "Miss Manson, I'm sorry for my words earlier. I hope you could find it in your heart to forgive me."

"DADDY" Chloe yelled, furious at the 'betrayal.'

'Good grief, I feel bad for Sam,' Danny thought, wincing 'she's louder than Ember.'

"Just do your promises, Mr. Mayor, and we'll be even," Sam said, clearly not happy to be talking to the mayor.

The mayor accepted this and went over to talk to a construction crew.

"That was surprisingly easy to change his mind," Danny said.

"Mayor Bourgeois isn't a bad guy though he cares more about his self-image than anything else," Ladybug explained.

"Got it like Montez but dumber," Danny said, nodding.

Seriously what genius thought that project oxygen thing was a good idea?

It sounded more like the evil plan of a Saturday morning cartoon villain than anything else.

After the heroes were done talking to the mayor about Project Oxygen, they left. The French heroes so their identities would not be revealed. At the same time, Danny needs to Amity Park before any ghosts cause trouble while he is gone.

Danny took out the Infimap that he got from Frostbite. " I should thank Frostbite for trusting me with the Infimap," he said.

Flashback

"You need the Infi-Map, oh, Great one?" Frostbite asked.

"Uh, yeah, because I thought of seeing the sight of Paris," Danny sightly lied to the yeti ghost.

"Be careful, Great One. I heard that there's a dangerous villain known as Hawkmoth. He is known for using butterflies to make supervillains, so keep your emotion in check," Frostbite warned.

"I'll keep that in mind, and also, how do you know about this Hawkmoth guy?" Danny asked the snow yeti.

"Don't think we stay in the Ghost Zone, Great one," Frostbite answered.

Danny shrugged his shoulders and left to help out Ladybug on whatever supervillain she was facing right now.

End of flashback

"Maybe I should ask Frostbite if he knows about those ghost-like things Marinette was talking to?" Danny muttered to himself before Ladybug landed next to him.

"Phantom," Ladybug started. "I was wondering why you were truly here in France?"

"Well, um, you see," Danny started to think of a lie to get out of this situation with Ladybug.

Ladybug narrowed her eyes, knowing that Danny Phantom didn't have an answer to her question.

Danny tried to think of an excuse but couldn't come up with one that was believable. Then Danny thought of telling her the half-truth of why he was here.

"Well, I saw you in Amity Park making a portal, so I decided to follow you because I thought you needed some ghostly help," Danny finally answered the Ladybug theme superhero.

Ladybug was now panicking in her mind that Danny might have seen her transform from Marinette into Pegibug. So now she was trying to think of a way to tell Phantom why she was making a portal from Amity Park to Paris.

"Well, I was, um, I was looking for a Miraculous that might have been in your hometown and need to make sure that I can get it before Hawkmoth could learn about it and get it," Ladybug lied to Danny.

Danny nodded even though he wasn't sure that Marinette was looking for a Miraculous so that crazy Franch fruitloop wouldn't get it to become stronger.

"If you need any help finding the Miraculous, give me a call," Danny told her.

"Thanks, Phantom. And thank you again for catching me when Ragtash almost flattened me," Ladybug told him.

"No problem, Ladybug," Danny blushed.

Something about Danny's blush was familiar to Ladybug, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

Danny opened the Infi-Map that created a ghost portal and flew into it as its close. Ladybug combines the horse and Ladybug Miraculous to make a portal back into the Fenton Works to her room.

Ladybug made it to the spare room and transformed back to Marinette. She flopped on her bed and thought about Danny Phantom. She was now wondering if Danny saw her transform into Pegabug.

"Marinette, Marinette," Tikki called out.

"Yeah, Tikki?" Marinette answered.

"Why didn't you ask Danny Phantom if he saw you transform before leaving?" Tikki asked.

As the vines pinned down Ladybug and Cat Noir, Danny went over to Ladybug to save her and her feline-themed partner. But, unfortunately, Ragtash used her flute, making vines grow Blood Blossom on them. This caused Danny to fall to the ground and start to glow red.

"What wrong with Phantom over there?" Cat Noir asked Ladybug.

"I don't know, but I think those flowers weaken him, like some allergy..." Ladybug theorized.

The Blood Blossom weakened Danny, and he was unable to move. Ladybug and Cat Noir saw this and realized that they needed to find a way to get rid of the Blood Blossoms. Then an idea came to Ladybug as she looked at Cat Noir, the vines, and the Blood Blossoms.
