Crosshair: This one’s different! He’s honest and he’s sweet.

Echo: Please…

Crosshair: He’d never do anything to hurt me.

The Assembly of the Gods on Mount Olympus

Artist: Hans von Aachen (German, 1552-1615)

Date: 17th century

Medium: Oil on copper

Collection: Private European collector

Description

An Assembly of the Gods, with Jupiter embracing Minerva, Venus confronting Diana observed by Hercules, Mercury, Cupid and Apollo, and Neptune and Hades conversing, in classical ruins.

[ahsokasteachings07]

I have a head canon.

Hercules and Lillie are married and already have a baby boy, Ten Cents.

One day during lunch, they decide to tell their 6 year old son about babies.

"Hey, do you want a baby?"

Ten Cents looks at his father with confusion then goes back to eating his applesauce.

They start telling him all the wonderful things about babies and Ten Cents is clearly more confused and a little concerned.

"Why all the talk about babies?"

Lillie stands up and holds a hand to her stomach.

"You're going to be a big brother soon."

Ten Cents looks at her for a good long minute before scooting back his chair to go give her a hug.

"Really?!"

Lillie laughs as she rubs his dark curls in his head.

"Yes, really."

[rainbowmuses]

@youllalwaysbemyporcelain | Hercules

"Did you drop this? I need to know so that I can bring this to lost and found" he said and tilted his head to the side while he studied the other, a soft smile forming on his face.

[ifyoutrvstme]

closed starter for hercules ! @ofcelestialstories

"You again." Jafar acknowledged the other, remembering the incident with the door in town. "I'm curious. That inhuman strength of yours — is it something you were born with? Or some kind of curse?"

@ultmanias asked: ❛  21 .   a  kiss  on  the  cheek . / from zack !

the last thing cora expected was a small flower, given to by zack. while she knew that the bond they had grew deeper than anticipated - something which only seemed to withdraw her more than usual, mostly out of her own complexes - there was no telling she expected to be given gifts of any kind. regardless, the green haired observes for one moment before slowly taking it in her own hands.

it was then, while looking down at the flower, did zack pull yet another unexpected tactic - he kisses her cheek which freezes her in spot. normally, cora would've pushed him off, hell, she wouldn't have even accepted any of this, yet here she is, completely struck with shock as she touches the cheek with her fingers and looks up at the soldier, confused yet longingly. no words were said, nothing could be said. for once in her difficult life, cora didn't know what to do. was she...getting vulnerable? was she really starting to...no. she can't say it, she won't. this can't go on...she has to push herself back in those walls before allowing an opportunity to get hurt, once again.

[kxsagi]

I had a funny thought

What if the Blue Lock boys had a gf who was super into chiropractics, and every time they complained about a sore neck or something, she just activated like a sleeper agent ready to crack some bones into place?

Maybe Bachira, Sae, Rin, Barou, and anyone else you wanted to add (or remove)

Feel free to ignore if you're not interested! (Or you closed your requests and I didn't notice)

“𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 🙏”

a/n: NO THIS IS GENIUS

ft. bachira meguru, itoshi sae, itoshi rin, barou shoei, isagi yoichi, nagi seishiro, kaiser michael, shidou ryusei

bachira meguru

“babe, my shoulder hurts.” 

five seconds later, he’s lying facedown on the carpet with your knee on his spine and your hands twisted like you’re about to do a fatality move from mortal kombat. 

“okay, but don’t make it worse–” CRACKKK 

“i saw god,” he whispers. 

starts intentionally walking into walls and sleeping in the worst positions possible just to “accidentally” need your services. 

"what do you mean you dislocated your knee dancing to baby shark?" 

“you’ll fix it, right? 🥺” 

you have to stop practicing on his toes because he got too into it and now thinks he can crack other people's joints too. 

"meguru, no. that’s a stranger. that’s a grandma." 

once asked you to do a couple’s adjustment video with him for his tiktok. he titled it: “my chiropractor gf cracked me so good 😳💦”  

you are banned from the comments section. 

itoshi sae

mentions his neck hurts just once. once. 

now you follow him around the apartment like a chiropractor on a stakeout. 

he sits down, and suddenly your hands are on his shoulders like “you rang?” “i didn’t.” “but you thought it.” 

he's always giving you the most deadpan “i’m tolerating this” expression as you twist him up like a pretzel and drop him on your knee like WWE. 

meanwhile, his spine is out here singing the hallelujah chorus. 

one time you adjusted his shoulder mid-conversation and he flinched so hard he almost roundhouse kicked you by accident. 

“warn me next time, chiropractor gremlin.” 

but lowkey? starts calling you “doc” under his breath. even sends you anatomy memes. 

his love language is letting you fix him, but pretending he’s not enjoying it. 

itoshi rin

acts like he doesn’t need you. 

“i stretch. i don’t slouch. i’m fine.” 

oh? then why did you hear his spine scream when he picked up a dropped sock. 

rin freezes when you approach. like a cat being stalked. 

“i’m not doing this right now.” 

“your pelvis says otherwise.” 

he finally lets you do it. and when his back cracks so loud it echoes through the apartment, he lets out this shameful little whimper. 

and you catch him… smiling? 

“did you just smile?” 

“no. that was pain. deep pain.” 

now you keep finding him in suspicious poses. like doing yoga near doorways. twisting his neck near you on purpose. 

“need help?” 

“… no.” (yes.) 

he tries to resist, but his spine is in shambles and your chiropractic powers are like a siren song. 

next thing you know, he's asking you to come over. “bring your little elbow move or whatever.” 

barou shoei

"i don't need your weird crack therapy. i'm built like a god." 

okay hercules. but your shoulder literally snapped when you opened a jar of peanut butter. 

he tries to tough it out, but the noises his back makes sound like a car wreck in slow motion. 

finally caves when you threaten to record him walking around like a malfunctioning robot. 

he lies down and braces for death. 

the first crack sends him to heaven and back. the second one? full body exorcism. 

“i feel… reborn.” 

“you’re welcome, broken toy.” 

you’d think that’s the end, right? nope. 

next morning he’s like “so when’s my next session” like it’s a scheduled business transaction. 

turns into your #1 hater if you offer to crack someone else. “i’m your only client. don’t touch anyone else’s bones.” 

insanely possessive about it. 

one time you adjusted bachira and barou refused to speak to you for 24 hours. spine jealousy is real. 

isagi yoichi

the first time you cracked his neck, he thought he was dying. 

“OH MY GOSH, was that my soul???” 

you had to calm him down like a panicked toddler. “yoichi, you’re fine.” “i saw my grandma.” 

BUT THEN… the pain was gone. and the look he gave you was pure worship. 

“what else can you crack?” 

now this boy pulls out a list. like a shopping list. “right shoulder, left ankle, spine quadrant 3…” 

always makes you do it right before a game for “luck.” 

once had you crack his fingers and then blew a kiss to the sky like a k-drama character. 

you caught him trying to adjust his own back by hanging upside down from the couch. 

“yoichi, no–” 

“yoichi, YES.” 

0 self-preservation. 10/10 chiropractic enthusiasm. 100/10 in love with you and your magical bone-snapping hands. 

nagi seishiro

he didn’t even ask. you just bent him over and heard the spine snap. 

“sei.” 

“yeah?” 

“you’re gonna die before 25.” 

he shrugs. which makes it worse. his shoulder popped. again. 

the first time you cracked his back, he fell asleep mid-session. 

“bro, you are SO lucky i’m licensed in fake chiropractor energy.” 

now it’s a routine. he lies down, you sit on him like a couch, crack his entire skeleton, and then tuck him into bed like a 6'4 baby. 

never complains. in fact, he starts calling it his “daily maintenance.” 

“hey babe, oil me up and break me in like ikea furniture.” 

refuses to stretch himself. “that’s what i have you for.” 

gets so spoiled he doesn’t even get up anymore. just lifts a hand and goes, “crack, please.” 

accidentally calls you “chiro-bae” and now you refuse to let it go. 

kaiser michael

“ugh. my neck hurts.” 

he says it like a prince awaiting servants. not knowing you just heard the bat signal. 

you turn around in full chiropractor mode. 

he flinches. “no. you’re doing the eyes again.” 

“you complained. that’s a cry for help.” 

“it’s not! i was being sexy about it!” 

too late. he’s already lying flat on the bed like a human pretzel while you prep your hands like you're about to summon a demon. 

“this won’t kill me, right?” CRACK. michael.exe has stopped responding. 

he genuinely short-circuits. lays there, blinking. lips parted. hair a mess. 

“… holy shit i think i saw jesus in a ferrari.” 

immediately becomes obsessed. starts calling you “mein kleiner bonebreaker.” 

now he fakes injuries during arguments. 

“you’re mad at me? fine. crack me. punish me with alignment.” 

sir, this is a medical service. 

jealous when you offer to crack anyone else. he literally pouts. “you can’t go around giving your healing hands to the peasants.” 

shidou ryusei

oh he loves this. too much. 

“ryu, your posture’s awful.” 

“wanna bend me? ;)” 

he lies down too fast. no hesitation. he’s already shirtless and probably screaming “HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT.” 

you try adjusting his back once and he moans. 

“ryusei, WHAT–” 

“sorry! reflex! wanna do it again? louder this time?” 

you’re 90% sure he’s weaponizing the chiropractor roleplay. 

starts calling you “my little spinal sorceress.” 

at some point you have to start locking your door because he’ll barge in at 2 AM like “my kneecap popped funny. quick, do the thing!” 

starts cracking your joints and insists it’s foreplay. you nearly deck him. 

100% would fake an injury in the middle of a date just to get adjusted in public.

OP tags:

Hastings' accent isn't really all that terrible, it's certainly not halting or stilted; the words come easily to him and he's excellent at the conjugation and syntax and vocabulary, it's just...noticeably English, and Poirot has a tendency to correct his pronunciation a lot which gets in the way of conversation, and doesn't exactly make Hastings feel good about himself :(but Poirot only does it because he knows Hastings can do better! he's trying to help!, unfortunately Poirot is not very good at helping

Headcanon that, while Hastings is fluent in French, he doesn't have a particularly good accent, so he prefers to speak in English when able.

This leads to conversations with Poirot when Poirot is particularly tired or frustrated where Poirot speaks entirely in French and Hastings speaks entirely in English.

[wonderjanga]

So Ive had this prompt stuck in my head, dunno if you've done it before, but:

Billy unexpectedly powers down due to a villain's weapon. But instead of being, well, scruffy little billy, he ends up looking like a greek child with the toga (?) and all. What would the JL reaction be?

This whole incident started half a year ago with the divine beings in his head arguing about something. Arguing was a surprisingly common occurrence despite the fact that most of these guys were over thousands of years old. He tended to normally tune them out whenever this was happening.

Achilles: “BILLY!”

Marvel: *startles* “Yes, Achilles?”

Achilles: “Chiton or toga?”

Marvel: “Huh?

Mercury: “Chiton or toga? We’re making you a gift. Aren’t we like so kind?”

Marvel: “A gift…?” *sounds weary* “I don’t like the sound of that. What are you planning?”

Zeus: “Nothing!”

Marvel: “Solomon?”

Solomon: “It really is nothing. This will actually aid you in case of any accidents while in field.”

Marvel: “Okay then…”

Hercules: “NOW PICK!”

Marvel: “Alright, alright, dang. Uh… What’s a chiton?”

Zeus: “What’s a- What’s a chiton? I’ve never felt such a shame for one of my children before.”

Marvel: “I’m not your kid, but okay.”

Solomon: “Billy, a chiton is a tunic that was worn traditionally by the Greeks.”

Marvel: “Oooh. Uh… okay then I pick that one.”

Zeus: “Ha ha, suck it Atlas!”

Atlas: “I also wanted him to pick the Chiton…?”

Zeus: “I know. I just don’t like you. I thought that was obvious by now.”

Billy didn’t know that Robin was like five feet away and watching this entire interaction go down. To Damian, this grown ass man was just having a full conversation with himself, oblivious to the world. He reported this behavior to his father later.

Batman: “That’s normal.”

Robin!Damian: “Pardon?”

Batman: “That’s normal for Marvel. Think nothing of it.”

Anyways, fast forward six months. Billy forgot about the gift thing the Gods were talking about. Mostly because they hadn’t even given him the gift. Then the time came when Billy was forced to be detransformed. All because of a stupid villain’s machine going haywire. Sivana could do better. So now, Billy was standing in front of the JL who had surrounded him in a half circle.

(Ancient Greek is in italics)

Billy: “Uh… Hello?” *doesn’t even realize he’s decked out in the Ancient Greek drip, complete with the chiton from earlier*

JL: *staring in befuddlement*

Supes: “He’s been de-aged?”

WW: *steps forward* “Brother?”

Mercury: “Okay, Billy, stare at her for like three seconds and then be like you’re Zeus‘s kin?”

Billy: *doesn’t even know why he’s doing this but does the three second stare* “You’re Zeus’ kin?”

Mercury: “You’re my favorite champion now.”

WW: “I am. I am Diana Prince. It’s a pleasure to meet you. What is your name?”

Solomon: “Thavma is a nice choice.”

Zeus: “So is Keraunos. Which is arguably better because it means lightning.”

Billy: “Thavma, or Keraunos. Either is fine.”

Flash: *whispering to Batman* “Spooky, what’re they saying?”

Batman: “I don’t know. I’m versed in Greek, not Ancient Greek. I can just barely make out an eighth of the words they’re saying.”

Soon after all of this, he was taken to the Watchtower. The JL dropped him off in a rec room and assigned Robin to watch him so the team could go to a meeting room to discuss the whole ordeal.

Robin!Damian: *looking him up and down*

Billy: *can feel the judgment through Robin’s mask* “What is it?”

Robin!Damian: “What?”

Billy: “I said what is it?”

Robin!Damian: “Tt. A language barrier.”

Billy: *frog blinks* “Language barrier…?”

Solomon: “I’ll just turn off the Ancient Greek for you.”

Billy: *clears his throat* “Can you understand me now?” *slight Greek accent still there*

Robin!Damian: “More clearly. Yes.”

Billy: “Cool, now what is it?”

Robin!Damian: “Pardon?”

Billy: “What is it? I can tell you’re staring at me judgmentally through that thing on your face.”

Robin!Damian: *visibly bristles* “I am not.”

Billy: “Yes, you are.”

Robin!Damian: “I am not.”

Billy: “You are.”

Robin!Damian: “Am not.”

Billy: “Yuh huh.”

Robin!Damian: “Nuh uh-” *realizes he let that leave his mouth* “Why are you acting like a child?

Billy: “I am a child.”

Robin!Damian: *stares at him for a couple moments* “The reason I am staring at you judgmentally, is that I had previously assumed you had been born an adult.”

Billy: “Who told you that?”

Robin!Damian: “Nightwing.”

Billy: *remembers he’s not supposed to know who that is* “Who?”

Robin!Damian: “He’s someone you’ll meet when you’re an adult.”

Billy: “Okay…?”

*silence*

Somehow, the two ended up crawling in the vents together. You couldn’t even ask Billy how it happened.

Robin!Damian: “Crawl faster.”

Billy: “I’m trying.”

They spent a while up there, crawling around, eavesdropping, stopping every now and then in the kitchen for snacks.

Robin!Damian: “This is chocolate.” *hands him a chocolate bar*

Billy: *eyes literally shining as he looks at the bar because he rarely gets to have chocolate*

Robin!Damian: “You open it like so.” *opens his own bar* “Now come. We must continue on the move. Back to the vents.”

This went on until the JL started to look for them.

Flash: *searching the rec room frantically because they should’ve been here*

Robin!Damian and Billy: *descend from the vents*

Robin!Damian: “What do you need speedster?”

Flash: *screams*

Yandere Hades, Qin Shi Huang, Apollo, Poseidon, Hercules, Ares and Hermes x Maomao Reader please?

This would be so funny because while many women, mortal, goddess, nymph and many other species fawn and lust over him, Reader looks upon him in disgust/disinterest when it comes to his physical appearance

However she only gets excited and show joy when it comes to medical herbs, poisons and certain animals which she scared him after he saw her consume poison and have a smile on her face over it

Frog Scene (Girl, I SCREAMED like a banshee I kid you not when I saw that scene)

OMG same! I read the manga, so I knew this was coming but when it happened, I squeed so loudly!

-He had it all, (Love) had adoration from women- gods, humans, nymphs- they all adored him for his handsome good looks and power!

-You, however, were an outlier- you looked upon him like he was scum at your feet, like you weren’t affected by his beauty, strength and skills- to you he was an annoyance and you had no issues showing it on your face when you looked at him, especially when he would try to flirt with you, to get a reaction out of you, but you would always bristle like a cat, glaring at him.

-It was strange, your reactions to him, it annoyed him at first, as he couldn’t understand it, he couldn’t wrap his head around how you weren’t swooning over him like others who would give anything for a fraction of his attention.

-You weren’t bothered by their jealous looks as (Love) was paying attention only to you, as he wanted you to acknowledge him in something other than anger and annoyance.

-(Love) was stunned to see that you were okay with treating others with kindness, speaking kindly, smiling gently, and conversing that didn’t sound like forced politeness, and he grew rather cranky, feeling salty that you treated him differently!

-That’s when he had an epiphany- you treated him differently and he liked it! You weren’t like everyone else, you treated him like how he acted, a cocky and sometimes arrogant full-of-himself!

-This, unfortunately for you, led to him seeking you out more, wanting to get to know you more, which made his admirers jealous and which annoyed you, especially when he cut into your personal time with your research.

-(Love) had nearly collapsed as he watched you eating something poisonous on purpose, rushing over to haul you up to take you to the clinic, but he froze as you looked to be in absolute bliss, smiling so beautifully as if you had just seen heaven.

-You blinked as his hands clapped down on your shoulders, holding you there as he was enraptured with your beautiful smile, like you just realized he was there as you spoke, “Hello Lord (Love), is there something you needed?”

-He instantly was yelling at you, mostly in worry more than anything, “Why are you eating poison?! And why do you look so happy about it?!”

-You looked a bit surprised but answered like it was no big deal, “I was a poison tester while I was alive. I grew immune to poisons by ingesting so many and instead of it bothering me, it tastes delicious, and I love how it makes me feel.”

-Despite being shocked by your answer, (Love) spent the next half hour yelling at you for being so reckless, because if you died in Valhalla, you would be erased from existence. You didn’t realize he cared so much about you, as his anger was surprising, but you just sat there, taking your scolding.

-You unfortunately made it worse by reaching for the bowl while he was pacing back and forth, wanting another bite, which led to your scolding session being expanded by another full hour.

-You were going to give him high blood pressure, but he did enjoy seeing the looks of glee on your face from seeing rare herbs, medicines, and other poisons.

-You were a strange person, but he couldn’t help but feel more and more drawn to you and while you hated to admit it, you grew to enjoy his company. He wasn’t the arrogant pretty boy you thought he was- he was more complex than that.

-The two of kept learning more and more about each other as you grew closer, much to the dismay of his admirers, who knew that they lost to you.
