Some hogcanons. notes (me rambling) under the cut

So silver was the reason i wanted to make this in the first place despite him looking the most on model (not entirely obviously, but i don't have many hcs for him). Mostly i wanted to draw his height compared to the other hedgehogs since him being freakishly tall despite being younger than sonic and shadow is funny. I saw someone say hes probably the most conventionally attractive hedgehog and i think that's true, hes a pretty boy and his fur/quills are really sleek and well maintained. The fluff on his chest is less spikey and more fluffy looking plus i put some fluff in his ears as well. I think his paws and nails are black and he doesn't wear eyeliner his lashes are just really long and hes got black markings on his eyes. Coming back to this after writing Amy's desc but i think hes genderqueer in some way idk maybe bigender i need to study him under a microscope some more every character i touch becomes transgender

Sonic has a few more added details, i like giving him a little nick in his ear and top surgery scars because that hog is trans. I haven't really seen many people give him stylized top surgery scars surprisingly, i tried to make his look kind of lightning bolty because uh something about him being fast. idk man. i think i imagined its similar to what itd look like for him to run in a zigzag? whatever i think it looks cool. I think his claws are kind of uneven and he doesn't really care too much about how they look especially since he just has them under gloves most of the time

Amy is fat because i said so, also i gave her wavier quills and heart markings everywhere. Her ears might look a little strange since it like implies her skin is making that heart shape but i imagine thats her fur spiking into the point. Her nails are painted the same red that shadows markings and stuff are mostly because i think them being besties is cute like. i see shadamy as a queer platonic relationship. Theyve always been my favorites im going to to make them as close as i want. Anyway, i think she and sonic are tied for having the shortest ears, and hers are the rounest (might make them even rounder the next time i draw her) also not entirely related to her design but i think shes transfem and genderfluid.

Shadow my son. im taking custody from black doom and gerald. anyway, i have the most headcanons for him because he is my absolute favorite guy ever he rots my brain. I think he and Amy are the same height, his rocket shoes are like platform/heels and so when he has them on he looks like Sonic's height or maybe a teeny tiny bit taller. I give his quills extra little spikes for no reason other than i think its cute, i could bullshit that its a black arms thing but idrc. What are black arms things though are his eyes and claws, his scelera is a more yellow compared to everyone elses (jaundiced as my friend put it. thanks endy) and i didn't draw it but his pupils are slits. Claws are long but are even longer when all the way out (retractable) his gloves are thick enough that he doesn't pierce them but he probably has a few spare pairs. Also not pictured but black arms related: his teeth are fucking razors, larger than the other hedgehogs and also serrated because i think thats cool. his tail is the longest out of all of them though i think it used to be longer but was lopped off in the name of science and never properly grew back. also his inhibitor rings are connected to a sort of device that does the task of being a proper gateway between his internal energy and the rings themselves, i didn't draw them but essentially its like a smaller ring that is embedded into his wrists i think. also hes trans but in a sort of alien way, i think the black arms can do the clownfish genderswap thing and shadow has it to a somewhat lesser degree its like an internal tshot i guess idfk

ok yeah thats all if u made it to the end thanks for reading the ramblings of a mad man

MASTERPOST || MASTERLIST

Eden had been staring at her phone for forty minutes straight.

After waking up, her thoughts had been running constantly. She didn’t have a costume, she wasn’t in the mood to go out, she had just turned 26. All she had done since waking up an hour ago was shower and brushing her teeth. She stood in her kitchen, still wrapped in her towel and her wet, unbrushed hair just dangled over her shoulders.

She knew she was overreacting, but everything reminded her of the things she desperately wanted to suppress.

She had been staring at Nick’s messages from the previous night with a weird feeling in her stomach. She didn’t even know what brought her to the point of agreeing to go to a party. A birthday party of a man she didn’t know, while she also tried to suppress the thoughts about her own age.

She was snapped out of her thoughts, when her phone began to ring. Her sister.

Should she answer?

She continued to stare at her phone.

The call went away.

Thank god.

She blinked for a couple of seconds, while she felt her heart beating so fast that she actually thought for a second, she was going to have a heart attack.

Then her phone rang again. Her sister again. She bit her lip for a second, before she sighed. She knew, she couldn’t ignore all the calls for the whole day, so she grabbed her phone and answered with a simple “Hello.”

“Took you some time.” Her sister answered and Eden could picture the sweet smile plastered on her sister’s face. Her little sister Raven was four years younger than her. At first, her parents hadn’t really planned on having another child, but when her mom fell pregnant with Raven, they were all over the moon. Eden couldn’t remember most of the time before Raven was born, but she remembered vividly how excited they all were when she finally was here.

She always had been the complete opposite of her older sister. While Eden was rather quiet and liked to be alone, Raven enjoyed the company of each and every individual around her. Raven liked to speak; Eden hated it. Raven was great at school; Eden wasn’t.

Even though they were basically polar opposites of each other, Eden loved her dearly and they always got along. But things had changed after Eden moved away from their hometown. She found herself not liking the company of anyone anymore. She knew it hurt Raven, but at the same time she felt like Raven was the only one that understood her and her decisions.

“Sorry, I was showering.” Eden quietly answered her little sister.

For a couple of seconds, it was rather quiet. It seemed like Raven tried to find the right words.

“I know, you hate it, but I wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday.” Raven began. “Mom told me to wish you all the best from them too, but they didn't want to bother you any longer than necessary.”

Eden swallowed. She knew she had been a pain in the ass the last couple of months, but she didn’t realize she had driven her parents to the point of not even wanting to call her.

She tried to swallow her doubts, before mumbling a response. “Thank you. I’m sorry for being so quiet.”

“Oh… Don’t worry, Eden. We love you.” Raven answered her quickly and tried to sound as happy as possible, but Eden heard the worry in her voice.

“I’m going to a party today.” Eden than exclaimed, to calm her sister’s nerves and seemingly it worked.

“Are you for real?” Raven exclaimed excitedly. “Yes, I am.” – “Where? Who? I-…?”

Eden laughed quietly. She really missed her sister. She really did.

“A friend of mine invited me to the birthday party of his friend.” Eden answered her sister with a small smile on her face.

“A friend or a friend?” Raven then wanted to know. Eden knew for a fact that Raven was wiggling her eyebrows while asking that question.

“A friend.” Eden rolled her eyes. She knew this was coming.

“Sorry, I was just asking.” – “You know, it wouldn’t be this way before you even asked, Raven.”

“Yes, I know. I just wanted to make a joke… I’m sorry.” Raven apologized.

After that, it was quiet again.

“Please don’t be mad at me, Eden.” – “I’m not, Raven. Don’t worry.” – “It was really insensitive of me… Considering, you're not-…” – “It’s really okay, Raven.”

It was quiet again. Eden wanted to cry because of the awkwardness.

“I… You know… Imma... I need to go.” Raven then said and Eden’s heart hurt. This was exactly how she didn’t want this to go.

“Okay. See ya.” Eden then answered and soon the call ended.

Eden felt bad. Everything felt bad. She just wanted to curl into a ball on her couch and never move again.

She looked at the clock and realized, she needed to head out sooner than later, to find a costume, if she wanted to be on time for the party. So, she sighed and got ready. Before she went out, she ate a bowl of cereal and then grabbed her keys.

While she was walking to her car, she covered her head with her hand. It had started to rain like crazy.

Right as she reached her car, her phone buzzed. It was Nick.

Nick: Just wanted to see if you would come tonight… Nick: I mean, since you didn’t answer yesterday…

Eden starred at her phone for a second, before she answered.

Eden: was about to head out to get a costume

She thought for a second, before she texted again.

Eden: maybe you wanna join me?

Nick instantly answered.

Nick: send me the location and ill be there

Eden sat in her car, nervously biting her fingernails as she waited for Nick to arrive. The Halloween store's neon sign flickered above her, casting a somewhat spooky glow on the damp pavement. She glanced at her phone and saw a text from Nick, confirming his arrival.

Nick: two minutes…

She took a deep breath and stepped out of her car, feeling a mixture of excitement and anxiety. The rain had stopped, leaving a crisp chill in the air.

As she entered the store, the scent of latex and plastic immediately crept up into her nose. Rows of costumes, masks, and accessories sat in front of her, ready to be explored. Eden wandered through the aisles, unsure of where to start. Her eyes scanned the racks of costumes, ranging from spooky to silly. She felt totally overwhelmed.

It had been a while since she last dressed up for Halloween. To be exact, it had been about ten years. She also didn’t quite remember what happened on said Halloween, since she had been more than drunk. The only thing she vividly remembered was how she puked her brains out that night.

Before she could think about it any longer, she heard someone enter the store and was soon met with Nick’s broad smile that was almost contagious to her.

"Eden! Happy Birthday!" he exclaimed and hugged the girl for short second while she started to blush like crazy, his enthusiasm echoing through the store. “Ready to find the perfect costume?”

She nodded, trying to match his energy. "Not really, but let’s do it anyways."

For the next hour, they searched through various options. Eden couldn't decide whether to go for classic monsters or popular characters from movies and TV shows. Nick showed Eden some funny and silly options, making her laugh at his playful behavior.

"How about a giant banana?" Nick suggested, holding up a bright yellow costume.

Eden shook her head, grinning. "I don't think so. I prefer my fruits less... inflatable."

Nick laughed with his full heart, before going on with his search.

Right as Eden set her eyes on a black lacy corset dress, she felt Nick’s presence close to her and jumped when she saw him with a ghost face mask on his face.

“What’s your favorite horror movie, Eden?” Nick asked with a deep tone in his voice, while Eden held her chest. Her heart was beating fast.

“Don’t scare me, Nick!” She shouted and shoved him away from her with a small smile on her face. Nick pulled the mask off while still giggling his ass off.

"How about Ghostface from Scream?" Nick suggested, holding up the iconic white ghostly mask.

Eden's eyes lit up with intrigue. "Actually, that's a great idea, Nick. It's simple, yet mysterious. Let's go for it."

“As mysterious as you.” Nick answered while handing the mask to her. Eden smiled a little to herself, not knowing how to answer him, so she just decided to ignore it.

Eden’s eyes traveled back to the black lacy corset dress in front of her and she decided to spice her costume up a bit. If she was going to have fun for once, she was going to do it right.

“Will you try it on?” Nick asked with a spark of curiosity in his eyes. Eden felt how her cheeks heated up at his expression.

“What if I wanted to surprise you?” She answered him boldly and her mind instantly started to race at her sudden change in demeanor. She didn’t even know why she acted that way.

Nick smiled at her cheekily, before they started to add the last touches to her costume. A pair of fishnet tights, some black gloves and a fake knife. Eden decided she was going to wear her old thigh high boots with it.

As they approached the checkout counter, Eden felt a mix of excitement and amusement. She surprisingly was pretty happy about her choice, and even more, she enjoyed the process with Nick.

Exiting the store, they headed back to their cars with bags in hand. Eden couldn't help but smile at Nick's infectious energy.

"Thanks for helping me pick something out," she said shyly but genuinely grateful.

Nick grinned. "Anytime, Eden. Now, let's make sure you turn heads and give everyone a good scare tonight!"

As they parted ways with a hug to get ready for the evening, Eden felt somewhat excited for the upcoming party, grateful for Nick's help in what she thought would be a complete disaster.

✨Request✨ about my embarrassment because embarassing myself is my hobby <3

reader's parents and younger brother (8 years old the young bastard😑💙 go pick up the reader at the end of the show, in that gentle moment when Noah chats a bit with fans. While he and the reader are chatting, the reader's younger brother approaches them and innocently asks "Is he that Noah guy you keep talking about in your sleep?🧐🤔" BABEGORL IMAGINE NOAHS FAACCEE IM FINISHEDD FOR LIFFEE😭😭

He come out of the concert absolutely exhausted, but absolutely fulfilled. You had one of the best nights of your life. The performance was amazing. The vocals were unforgettable and of course the boys as individuals was just a whole other experience. You were just a little little sad that you weren’t able to get VIP tickets in time but there was always the next show.

So here you were waiting outside for your parents to arrive. They’re about five minutes away, so it wouldn’t be too long. You scroll through your phone. Looking at the pictures you had taken tonight. You zoom in on a particular picture that you have taken nearly perfectly. It was a lead singer Noah and he looked fantastic. No it was very common but also pretty, looked down upon depending on who you asked to have a crush on the lead singer. as much as you try to avoid it or deny it, you definitely had a crush on him

His musical talents, his looks, and his vibe personality overall really draws people in, so could you really blame yourself? You sigh reliving the memory in your head.

“ maybe next time I’ll get into VIP “ you said to yourself wistfully

“ well, maybe that can be changed “ a voice comes from behind you you spin around to see none other than Noah Sebastian and Nick Rufillo. You felt your heart dropped into your ass you blink a couple of times look from side to side, not believing what you were saying. It was after the concert, and here was the band members themselves talking to you

You for a loss of words “I-I…. Your bad omens …” was all that you could muster

They both smile their heads “ that we are. Did you enjoy the show tonight? “ they asked and you not your head enthusiastically

“ it was so good I loved every second of it!” Compliment you’re more than sure that they could see the stars in your eyes from how you were gawking and rambling to them

“ Glad that you enjoyed, but how about a picture since you didn’t make it into VIP” offered you felt like you were dreaming at this point and you hope something would come and prove that it wasn’t a dream. As if the universe was listening to your thoughts at that very moment. Another voice comes behind you.

“Hi!” Slightly turned around to see your younger brother. “ is that your boyfriend?” he ask looking Noah up and down.

“Y/B/N! No, where’s mom and dad? Why are you here?” You ask as blush appears on your face. Your cheeks become aggressively red from embarrassment.

“ we’re here to pick you up remember” he said sarcastically pointing to the car. You just kept your mouth shut at that point because if you said anything else he’d make it worse.

“ hey how do I get a picture of you guys together?” Your mom offered pulling out her phones to take a picture. Your brother may have shown up to embarrassing you, but at least you were able to get a picture with Nick and Noah even if you weren’t able to get into VIP and see the rest of the boys.

Group together and take one or two pictures and thank them profusely

“ I know you” your brother says suddenly

And of course, Noah asks “oh you do do you enjoy the music too?“

“ not really but you my sister’s wallpaper and she talks about you in her sleep too”

You. were. Horrified. Sure your brother embarrasses you at times but why now? And in front of all people know Sebastian of bad omens. WHY???

You couldn’t move you couldn’t say anything you were completely petrified in your spot and just watched Noah’s eyes widen and surprise. A smile crossing his face in a light chuckle, escaping his lips.

“ well, I’m sure she does if she really likes her music” he was trying to save the embarrassment and redirect your brother in a different direction but of course this demon spawn says

“Mmm but she’s always staring at pictures of you saying how hot you are-“

“OKAY WELL IM TIRED and it’s time to go home and I have work in the morning”

“No you do-“

At that point, you sort of stuffing your brother into the backseat of the car and shut the door as fast as possible. You had nowhere to hide your face as a long size escapes your body. You had such a great night, and you even got to meet two of the band members and your brother just had to ruin the experience.

You felt the top of your shoulder and you turn around to see Noah, handing you a piece of paper those between his fingers. He gives you a soft smile and says.

“ we gotta get going, but have a safe drive and thanks for coming to the show”

“ thank you for taking a picture with me. I really appreciate it and again I love your music so much.” You think them and goodbye as they walk to you soon will be the tour bus

when all of a sudden you get into the car and put your headphones on completely ignore your brother. You look at the paper still in hands, folded. You take the paper and carefully open it, just enough for you to read.

It was autographed by Nick and Noah with a small note under Noah's name

"see you in your dreams ;)"

Your cheeks heat up and all you could do was fold it tightly and stuff it into your pocket. You'll make sure your brother doesn't ever see this one!

Look What You Made Me Do

Sequel to Your Sympathy

Former! Sam Winchester x Reader

Warnings: Mention of Breakup, Lovers to Enemies, Angst, Unrequited Love, Fluff

Summary: After realizing her boyfriend, Sam would never change his ways. Y/N does the smart thing she leaves. She's built a wonderful life for herself and her daughter Theresa. Y/N went to Stanford and now owns a law firm. 5 years have passed since that fateful day. Now her past comes knocking.

Inspired by Taylor Swift’s Look What You Made Me Do

But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time. Honey, I rose up from the dead; I do it all the time. I got a list of names, and yours is in red, underlined I check it once, then I check it twice. Oh! Ooh, look what you made me do. Look what you made me do.

It's been 5 years since I left Sam Winchester, who I thought was the love of my life. I knew he wouldn't change, so I did what was best for me and our daughter. Theresa Samantha Winchester, even though he and I were never married. I still wanted her to carry part of him. Does she ask who her dad is? Yeah, she's starting to. I've only told her he just can't be here, and that he loves her. I feel guilty for lying to her, but I can't tell her the truth. She's too young to understand. I'll tell T when she's older.

I’ve become emotionally stronger since then too. I always do what’s best in the long run. We've built a wonderful life here in Vegas. I studied family law at Stanford University remotely and recently opened a law firm. We specialize in custody cases. Inspired, of course, by the situation with Sam, custody cases.

I've finally had some time off, so of course I'm spending time with T. Hearing her giggle as I chase around the yard puts a smile on my face. It feels good to have a week off and spend some time out this summer. T really loves summer because she can wear dresses. They look adorable on her. I have to admit it’s nice to get out of my business clothes and into casual wear for once.

I feel a looming presence watching us. It makes my blood run cold when I see who it is, Sam. He looks angry as hell like he wants to rip my head off. I whisper in my daughter's ear to go into the house. She doesn't need to see this. Sam closes the gap between us. Even though I hate to admit he still looks as good as the last time I’ve seen him. Even if he’s angry at me.

“So this is where you ran off to. I've been looking for you for 5 years. You gave me no forwarding address, just a quote. She's mine, isn't she? How dare you take her from me?” Sam growled.

She looks exactly like him. Those multi-spectrum hazel eyes are a unique trait. So he knows she definitely is his.

“Well, Mr. Perfectly Fine, you never wanted to commit. You even fucking kept our relationship a secret. So don't come yelling at me. I did what was best for her and me.” I retorted.

Sam pulls me towards him and roughly kisses me. I kick him in the balls and he releases me.

“I'm not yours and I never will be again. Go away.” I snarled. I hear a familiar set of tires pull up. My husband rushes over to me.

"Y/N are you okay Resa called me saying someone showed up at our house. She sounded scared, so I rushed home.”

Morgan’s got a worried look all over his handsome face. His brown eyes scan over me to make sure I’m not hurt.

"I'm fine dearest I've got this Sam was just leaving," I replied.

A flash of relief washes over his face.

It looks like the colour has drained from Sam's face. He's a dead ringer for his late father John. Everyone has a twin and Morgan is his. Morgan and I met when I had to travel to Stanford for an exam. Like me, he was a hunter who got out of the life. He did all the standard hunter checks in front of me before we started dating.

I didn't even realize he looked like him until T called him grandpa. Since I still keep one picture on my desk. I've never hid from her who her family is. I told her the truth though he wasn’t. Morgan just looked like him. He’s also a lot younger than him but still older than me. Morgan is 5 years older than me. He and I have been married for a year. It was love at first sight. We were together 6 months before he proposed. So we’ve been together for nearly two years. It didn’t take long for T to get attached to him. She’s grown to love him. It’s strange though she’s never called him dad though just M.

I leave Sam standing there not saying another word. I have nothing left to say to him. I don’t care if he’s heartbroken. I am not his anymore he needs to realize that. We’ve got a life here that I love. I’ve got a family that I’ve always wanted. If he thinks I’m going to leave Morgan, he’s kidding himself. I truly love Morgan. From the moment we met, I knew he was the love of my life. I'll always be grateful for the one good thing that came out of my relationship with Sam, Theresa. As for my relationship with Sam I have no interest in getting it back.

I'm sorry

But the old Y/N can't come to the phone right now

Why? Oh, 'cause she's dead (oh)

[writeandsurvive]

I'm sorry for this, it's not good. But somehow, I managed to get something done, so I gotta share. Kinda inspired by NCIS S21E08 'Heartless'.

Warnings: age gap, married couple, established relationship, talks of miscarriage, giving birth, jealousy, womanizer!Alden, daddy!Alden, very slight smut

Mine ~ Alden Parker

When you started to date Alden Parker, as he was still an FBI agent, you never considered becoming friends with his coworkers. Especially, after meeting a few of them he would consider his friends and they turned out to be judgmental towards the age gap in your relationship. Not that you wanted to befriend his coworkers anyways, you just agreed to meet them cause he asked. 

However, it changed when Alden joined NCIS. He immediately started to tell you about his new team, and you could he was fond of them all, including his boss - which was extremely surprising since he never got along with his FBI boss, Sweeney. You quickly knew it would be different this time. It did take him a while before introducing you to them, but once it happened, you all hit it off. The guys were quite impressed with Alden wedlocking a woman fairly younger than him, while the girls, even though they wouldn't go for someone older, they agreed that Alden Parker had a little something. "It's the freaking hair!" Jess joked. 

Before you knew it, this new team felt like family. You'd all hang out together - dinners, games night - and sometimes you'd have girls night with Jess and Kasie. You even babysit McGee's twins and/or Victoria a few times. Which, as much as you loved it, did hurt a little since it would remind you of the struggles you and Alden had been having to have a baby. Between not getting pregnant for months and the miscarriages, you had started to think that it wouldn't happen the natural way for you. Also, Alden really felt like he was getting too old to have a kid, no matter how badly he wanted one with you. 

When you reached your third trimester, Alden felt pretty confident that this time everything was going to be alright while you couldn't shut that little voice in your head saying that something bad would happen like the other times. But finally, the nurse put your crying new born in your arms, and everything felt right. "You did so good, my love." Alden cried, kissing your forehead and looking down at his son. "Our miracle baby. He's perfect." 

You didn't want the nurse to take him away from you but you knew they needed to check him up and clean him. "Do you guys have a name for this little guy?" Another nurse asked. You and Alden looked at each other for a second. "Axel Roman Parker." He said, proudly. 

Obviously, the team was in the waiting room. Alden had been at work when you called him to tell him that your water broke. Nick had been the one driving to the hospital, "Torres, I'd like to meet my son before I die, thank you very much!" Alden shouted, holding onto the handle above the window. 

"Don't worry, dad." Nick grinned. 

Your husband went to see them to let them know that mom and baby boy were alright. "Is it okay if you guys only meet him in a few days?" 

"Of course, no rush!"

"Send us pictures though! Please?" 

Alden didn't want to go back to work after his paternity leave. He didn't want to leave his little family. The night before his first day back, he actually felt depressed. "He's changing so much so fast, I'm gonna miss so much." He sadly said, stroking his son's back, who was peaceful sleeping on daddy's chest. 

"I'll take as many pics and videos I can." You kissed your husband's cheek. "And Vance said you don't have to put many hours like you usually do." 

"I know, but still." 

You noticed the tears forming in his eyes and it broke your heart a little. You didn't want him to go back to work either. You wish he could push his leave a little more, but he had pushed it as much as possible already - director Vance had been amazing and made it easy. You wrapped your arm around Alden's neck, carefully so you wouldn't wake up Axel. He nuzzled your neck as you gently stroked his hair. "He loves you and perfectly knows who daddy is. It won't change in a few hours, I promise." 

"I honestly thought it would never happen for me, you know? Before you and then the issues we had, I thought-- I just wasn't meant to be a dad. But now he's here, and I just don't want to be away from him."

"Aw, baby." You cried with him. "I wish there was a way for you to stay." 

The next day, Alden arrived late at work as he struggled to let go of Axel. Jimmy and Tim, who knew how it felt, were very helpful throughout the following week. 

It took you months to separate from Axel, just for a few hours. And even more time to go out for a girls night while Alden had a boys night with his little man. 

"I almost forgot how champagne tasted." You smiled, having your first drink in over a year. 

"Good thing we took a whole bottle then!" 

The conversation between you, Jess, Kasie and Delilah went on as it usually does when you four get together. Jess talked about her relationship with Jimmy, and her dad. Kasie confessed about her new crush - you and the girls immediately hyped her. Delilah talked about her job, and the twins newest obsessions. And you obviously talked about Axel and your husband. 

"By the way, how's Alden's neck?" Jess asked. 

"Perfect! Did Nick really fix him with a bear hug?" 

"He did! It was pretty funny!" Jess laughed, remembering the scene from a couple of days ago. "Doctor Logan probably thought we were crazy." 

"I can't believe that my husband im-so-scared-of-needles-hold-me-hand worked on a heart surgery." You laughed, trying to imagine the scene. 

"Mr I fainted when my wife got her epidural." Kasie teased. 

"In his defense, it's a pretty big needle for this." Delilah said. "Thank god he didn't faint during the surgery though." She joked. 

"Well, if he did, I'm sure Doctor Logan would've enjoyed giving him mouth to mouth." 

You, Kasie and Delilah turned like one person to look at Jessica. "What?" She asked, confused. Then she looked at you. "He didn't tell you?"

"Tell me what?" 

"Um..."

"Jessica Knight."

"The doc clearly developed a crush on him. She practically flirted with him in front of me." 

You let out a deep breath. "Did he flirt back?"

"Not really, he was genuinely confused."

"Did he not learn his lesson with the senator?" Kasie chimed in. 

You finished your drink in one swallow, remembering when he gave you a piece of paper with a number on it. "Whose number is it?"

"A senator." He had said. 

"Alright and what am I supposed to do with it?" 

"You, nothing. But I guess she wanted me to call when she gave it to me." The jerk was smiling while you used to candle flame to burn the paper. 

"I don't care about the 'it's safer for you if people don't know I'm married' crap, I'm gonna glue the wedding band to his damn finger." 

The girls laughed, always enjoying how easily you get jealous when there's a woman around Alden. When you had learned that some women in the office kinda liked your man, you showed up at the NCIS headquarters for the first time and asked for a tour. When his ex wife got involved in a case, you were feeling anxious, even though she knew about you from the beginning, thanks to Alden's parents. The worst actually was when he saw his first love for the first time in over thirty years. He had admitted that it felt very strange, and maybe if he had been single, he'd have pursued something, but he was married to you, and deeply in love with you and he'd be crazy to let you go. It was one of those rare moments when you and Alden were struggling, and fought a little more often. But he never gave you a reason to be jealous or suspicious, it was just a part of your personality. And to be fair, he was such a womanizer, you couldn't help but to think that any other woman would be better than you. 

You got home slightly drunk, which Alden expected. He was happy that you finally let yourself have some fun away from him and Axel. Barely sleeping on the couch, he immediately got up when he heard you come in. "Hey! What are you doing up? Is Axel awake?" You asked, struggling to take your shoes off. Alden kneeled down to help you. 

"He did wake up an hour ago for his bottle but he's fast asleep now." 

"Good, good." You leaned a little and ran your hand through his hair. "I'm so so so so happy you're my baby daddy." 

Chuckling softly, he got back up and wrapped his arms around your waist. "Thank you for choosing me. You made all my dreams come true." You hugged there for a moment, just enjoying each other. "Let's go to bed, baby mama." He started to carry you, grabbing the baby monitor on the way. 

"No sleeping, gimme another baby." He laughed but quickly got cut off as you smashed your mouth on his. He managed to get to the bedroom while you practically assaulting him, holding his face firmly and french kissing him. Of course his body was responding positively. As he put you down on the bed, you dragged him along. He was on top of you and you started to make out. It was long until you felt his erected cock between your legs. You reached for it, forcing your hands under his shorts. "Fuck, baby." He moaned. 

"Yes, fuck me daddy." 

And he did just that. ~

After freshening up in the bathroom, Alden found you in the nursery, looking over Axel. He hugged you from behind. "Do you really want another?" He asked, cautiously. 

"Not necessarily," you admitted. "I mean, if it happens, I'll be very happy but I can't go through the struggles again."

"Okay. We've got him and he's absolutely perfect." You stroked your son's hair one more time before turning around to face your husband. 

"He really is." You grabbed his left hand and stared at it for a moment. "This wedding band stays on, Alden. 24/7." 

"But--" 

"No but. I'm done with women flirting with you cause they assume you're single. You're taken, you're fucking mine. You keep the damn ring on." 

Alden stayed silent for a moment. "Jess told you about Doctor Logan, didn't she?" You only looked at him, arms crossed. "Fine, I won't take off my ring ever again." He reached for your wrists and made you uncrossed your arms as he hated when you strike that pose on purpose. He brought you as close as possible to him. "Are you ever going to accept the fact that you're the love of my life? That I rather be single for the rest of my life than with someone else than you? That losing you and now Axel, would absolutely destroy me?" 

All you could do was kiss him, but he did saw the tears falling down your cheeks.

Peter’s application picture to Carleton College, 1959 (courtesy of Carleton College Archives).

“When I was in junior high school, I was a punk. I wanted people to love and admire me for my gentle wit, my talented music-making and my beauty of personality. Instead I was loathsome and irritating and quarrelsome and I didn’t know why people didn’t like me. But I began to think and meditate on it. Meditation is the only way the personality can be improved, and gradually I began to work things out and better myself. I like to give someone as many ‘different sheets of music paper’ as I can — behave differently toward him each time I see him. That is the only way someone can know what the real me is like. You can’t know the real me by only talking to me. I believe that you can tell more about people by the way they looking walking away from you than you can by what they say.” - Peter Tork, Seventeen, August 1967 (x)

“‘All of my early life was spent feeling out of whack. Physically I matured late and never was very athletic and always found myself on the short end of the stick. I was raised in a liberal family in the middle of the McCarthy era.’ Against those odds, Tork inevitably developed an inferiority complex that he carried into adulthood and his musical career. When he became one of four young men chosen out of 437 applicants to become what were supposed to be the ‘American Beatles,’ his self-doubt grew to mammoth proportions. ‘Half of the time I would think I didn’t deserve it and the other half I would think I was God’s gift to the children. I got my head turned around. It was the “arrogant doormat” syndrome low self-esteem combined with arrogance.’” - The Daily Oklahoman, November 7, 1983 (x)

“‘My life between then [moving from Wisconsin to Connecticut] and my senior year of high school was a total disaster,’ says Peter. ‘In fifth grade I started going downhill because I was unhappy. I was constantly trying to make friends and trying to be funny but never succeeding because I was so much younger. I did have a small circle of friends but that was at home, it didn’t have much to do with school.’ […] ‘When I was little I wanted to be an orchestra conductor. I remember a time when I was in Germany, I was about four years old, we went to a restaurant where they had an orchestra and the leader let me get up and conduct it. As I got older I began to love folk music, particularly the Weavers stuff.’ Around 1956, as rock ‘n’ roll was beginning to make its impact, Peter was pursuing rather different musical interests. Folksinger Tom Glazer […] became a friend of the family and presented fourteen-year-old Peter with a ukulele, which he mastered with disarming ease. ‘Then I took up the guitar and later I learned to play the five string banjo. Learning to play musical instruments always came easy to me. Other things I couldn’t learn no matter how hard I studied.’ Peter’s adolescence took a turn for the better around the time of high school senior year, when he was moved to the newly-opened University of Connecticut High School. ‘It was much more comfortable. The age difference ceased to matter and I finally got a chance to make some real friends. This is when I guess you could say I blossomed out. There were all kinds of amateur societies I could join, like drama and rifle shooting. I even started going to football and baseball games. […] I was very interested in drama but I was a late grower and because I was so short I never got any big romantic leads. My acting debut, at age sixteen and a half, was as a thirteen-year-old paper boy in Our Town. This was a bit degrading; it reminded me of the age problem, that had dogged me all through school.’ Peter also contributed to the school newspaper, submitting bizarre humor pieces illustrated by his younger brother Nick. Buoyed up by new confidence and security, Peter took a crash course in the French horn and was invited to join the University (not high school) of Connecticut Orchestra, as fourth chair French horn. ‘I really began to love music, just about every kind except opera. Sometimes I liked listening to classical music better than anything. My favorites were Prokofiev, Bach, Rachmaninov and Stravinsky. Pop music seemed kinda drab around that time. The hard core rock ’n’ roll era had ended and most of the excitement had gone. I was hung up on the orchestral music we played at school. About the only popular stuff I used to really listen to was Ray Charles.’” - Monkeemania (1986)

“A friend of the family, Tom Glazer, a folk singer, is the one who started it all for me. He gave me my ukulele. I had been taking piano lessons but when I got the uke, I found I could go plunk, plunk, and it was a sound I really dug. My mother wanted me to keep studying the piano, but I couldn’t make that plunk-plunk sound on it even after practicing. Knowing the piano helped a lot, though. I played other instruments too, like the French horn. I played that as a senior in high school in Connecticut and in a university band.” - Peter Tork, Seventeen, August 1967 (x)

LOST MEDIA ? GUYS IM BACK FROM THE DEAD BUT WITH SOMETHING NOT PRISMO RELATED BUT I NEED YOUR HELP, PLEASE SPARE ME

I APOLOGIZE PROFUSELY. I AM SO SORRY BUT I NEED HELP.

I have some media on my hands that i cannot find, but it cannot possibly be lost, ive been looking for it for hours and i cant find it anywhere. bear with me-

when i was getting ‘a little too old’ for kids cartoons, but i would still watch them, there was a new show that came out on [likely] nick jr. other possible programs for this could be sprout, disney jr., or PBS, but i dont think was on PBS. this mustve been around 2010-2014. it was a show about these scientist kids who all lived [?] in a labatory. im PRETTY sure all of them were either all monkeys, or different types of animals, maybe with different lab motifs like a rat and a bunny, since those are lab animals. the main character was this know it all monkey that i HATED as a kid because he was the one who solved EVERY SINGLE PROBLEM like the little gary stew that he was. his little thing was that every time there was a problem, he would shout, “EUREKA”! and then he would solve the problem with science or friendship or whatever. i just remember thinking how annoying it was that he had no flaws.

i remember this one episode where another monkey character got sick. he was a lighter shade than the main character and im pretty sure he was just a younger side character who wasnt exactly there all the time. i think he was a younger sibling of sorts? anyway, he got sick and he had to stay home all day. from what i can remember he was the only one who was shown to have a home, unlike the other kids, who lived by themselves in the lab. he kept on wanting to go to this party his friends were hosting, but his mother said he was too sick to go. she served him this weird mushy food that he hated and didn’t want to eat, but the bowl she served it in was the exact shape of his head, so he had the idea to make it look like him and sneak off. he went to the party and all of his friends were concerned for him and told him he should be getting rest at home. i cant remember how the episode ends. i think he was one of my favorite characters, and i also think that there was one female character who was obviously dressed in all pink so that you knew she was a girl.

i also remember a bumper for the show where the gary stew mc said his eureka catchphrase as a green potion popped up with a speech bubble, though this could have been something im making up. i remember feeling annoyed when it appeared.

the artstyle was 2D and had a thick outline look to it. it looked kind of like wow wow wubzy.

it was not wow wow wubzzy or sid the science kid. i do not think it was AstroBlast, but if someone pulls up an episode like the one i described, i might change my mind.

below i have some poorly drawn visions of what the show may vaguely look like. the first picture depicts the MC, and the second is the bumper. ill reblog this and add more if needed as i kind of remember what the episode i described looked like. also if you dont want to see non-related prismo stuff block the #notprismopostingsorry tag.

So I'm kinda dragging thanks to not getting that much sleep in the past few days but I think I've got a few headcannons that have fully formed after playing for a little bit.

Nick 💯 joined the Marines to get away from gang violence, since in my brain he's from Chicago. That's why shooting that woman at the checkpoint has messed with him so much.

"I joined to get away from shooting random people in the streets for a fuckin' turf war! Now I feel like I'm just in the middle of a government sanctioned one!"

I also feel like he may have come from a home with a lot of kids, maybe to the point that his mother unintentionally didn't give him as much attention due to younger siblings, but I feel like he'd still be a Mama's boy, helping her where he could. He's dad I see being in the picture but for some reason just not having the impact his mother did, maybe because he was working all the time.

Eric is an only child that has emotional issues due to his parents being emotionally absent and possibly divorced. That why he clings to Rachel so much, she's the first person who gave a shit about him, but when things got tough, he did what he's parents did and buried himself in work.

"If it's a computer I can fix it all day long, but people are... Harder."

Merwin actually loves his wife, he wouldn't be wearing his wedding band into combat if he didn't. He makes the banter he does because that's what the older marines did when he joined, he's a product of hazing. To him this is how he has to be to people, because that's how the older generation was to him.

Joey's parents were against him joining the military, they didn't want him to fight and instead wanted him to work on the farm. He joined because he didn't want to slave away in a field, he hoped the military would give him the skills he needed to make something of himself. To be able to take care of his father and mother when their bodies finally gave out from the years of hard work. Only his Abuela understood why he went to war, having lost her husband too soon from a life of manual labor.

Jason definitely came from an abusive home life, I just picture him hiding behind a couch when he was younger, as his parents screamed at one another, his father drunk and ready to hit.

"He prayed he wasn't noticed as another bottle hit the wall a few feet from him, he heard the screen door slam shut as ma started crying but thankfully with no new bruises. He knew it was over, for now..."

"YOU'RE FUCKIN' WORTHLESS, SHOULDA' NEVER HAD YOUR STUPID ASS!"

He ran to college the first chance he got, he didn't care what he did, as long as it meant he didn't have to go home.

Rachel's mother was disappointed in her for joining the CIA instead of being a socialite. She hated that her daughter now handled guns instead of champagne glasses. Her mother had some hope when Rachel mentioned Eric that she'd come to her senses but, it was quickly dashed when she mentioned Eric was Air Force.

I have more but my brain isn't going to work for much longer so I'm going to go take a nap. 😅

Yeehawgust Day 11: Wicked Horns

TLOU (Pre-outbreak)

WC: 675

Rating: T

Characters: Tommy and Joel

Warnings: light language, alcohol mention

A/N: consider this my first contribution to the Bi-Tommy agenda! 🩷💜💙 (also Ace!Joel if you squint 😗)

Joel didn’t know why he agreed to go out tonight. He didn’t like dingy bars or drunk people or noise in general, but Sarah was at a friend’s house tonight, and, well, Tommy begged him. Said they weren’t getting any younger and all that shit. So Joel agreed, mostly to keep an eye on his little bother. Tommy had a knack for getting into trouble. Whether it was drinking too much or shit talking a guy playing pool and losing his boots, it was always better when Joel was there to steer him in another direction.

Tommy had found a new bar that just opened in downtown Austin. Joel wasn’t a heavy drinker, not anymore. He was fine nursing a beer or two throughout the night. Tommy, however, might as well have ordered a sampler platter of their fancy cocktails considering he had tried just about every one.

“Maybe let’s slow down there, big dog,” Joel said, leaning directly into Tommy’s ear trying to combat the blaring music.

Tommy tilted his head back to finish his drink and left it on the high top they had been floating back and forth to.

“Nope. I’m about to ride that bull, and I don’t want to feel my face when it hits the floor,” he said matter of factly.

“There is no way in hell I’m letting you on that thing.”

“Relax, I’ve done this before,” Tommy batted him away with a boneless hand.

Joel sighed and folded his arms over his chest, following his brother to the center of the room while he got in line. Joel looked at the ground awkwardly while a group of girls went first, each only staying on a few seconds, cheering loudly the whole time. After witnessing a string of failures, Joel figured Tommy would be flat on the floor in no time. He thought one last time about trying to talk him down, but figured having a story to tell Sarah about how he got that bloody nose would be funnier. He pulled his phone out of the clip on case on his belt and flipped it open, squinting in the dim light while he tried to find the camera button. He hit record just in the nick of time, seeing a small, grainy Tommy mounting the bull with a flashing red dot in the corner.

“Don’t slip,” Joel called out with a smirk.

“I won’t, jackass,” Tommy said with a wide grin.

The group of girls who had just tried and failed were now gathered around the rail to watch Tommy. Each of them whooping and shouting encouragement that no doubt filled his ego to do this and do it well.

The operator stepped back behind the railing and watched as Tommy settled into the saddle confidently. He breezed through the lowest setting, causing the operator to cock her eyebrow before cranking it up a notch.

Tommy was the picture of cool. Toothy smile on his face scattering his freckles, one hand firmly on the horn, one arm loosely beside him for balance. The bull bucked and spun, but his grip didn’t waver. His hips moved in time with each rolling motion, even as the operator upped the difficulty level. A large crowd had gathered now chanting in unison, “Go! Go! Go! Go!” Once he showed signs of faltering, the operator slowed down the ride allowing him to hop off and bow dramatically in front of his new fans. The bar erupted in cheers for their new champion, and Tommy was milking it for all it was worth.

“Well, I’ll be,” Joel said, clapping him on the shoulder.

“You can go on home. I’m gonna go get some drinks and phone numbers,” Tommy grinned, patting his brother’s hand before heading towards a group of flustered looking guys and girls at the edge of the pen.

Joel’s mouth gaped while he stood stunned for a second.

“Now wait just a second, I ain’t leaving you here!” he called, weaving through the crowd.

Pinky dinky doo review

hoi, it’s Abby, and this post is gonna be the start of wut I call “nostalgic reviews,” where I review a random show from ur or my, childhood! as the title of this post states, today, I’m reviewing on Jim jinkins’s (creator of Doug, pb&j otter, Allegra’s window, the Christian dvd series hoop dogz, Stanley, jojo’s circus and the unaired mature espn cartoon Hoyt and Andy’s sportsbender) pinky dinky doo.

“What’s pinky dinky doo?”

Originally starting as bedtime stories for Jim’s daughter, pinky dinky doo was greenlit for 2 11 minute web-only pilots, which are now lost media. (Hey lsupersonicq, lost media wiki, can we get this found?) and a series of books, which were soon greenlit for a full 22 minute cartoon on noggin, (now known as nick jr.) it also aired on discovery kids in Latin America and on cbc kids in Canada.

Format of the show

After the (very very catchy) theme song, the show opens up with Tyler (pinky’s younger brother) having a problem, or a small issue (lik his halloween costume not being scary or him unable to find his shoes,) pinky, overhears and comes up with a story idea, which leads to….The storybox song! (Which is very very catchy.) pinky, tyler and mr guinea pig dance their way to the story box, a small cardboard box, and in which, with a piece of chalk, pinky tells her story, which is related to the problem tyler’s facing, (lik in the first episode, pinky is unable to find her shoes. And has to use baloney as shoes…until she finds out everyone in her school can’t find their shoes either.) with pinky saying “now that’s something you don’t see everyday.” When something silly/weird happens, these stories involve a “great big fancy word” (mr guinea pig blows a trumpet whenever the word is about to be mentioned.) which is a word used in the story, (lik masterpiece or celebration) pinky, near the end, has to figure the problem out by thinking big…literally. Her head grows just lik a balloon. And it deflates when she comes up with a idea. This also comes with a song. At the end, pinky solves the issue in a unique and creative way, (lik in one episode, pinky’s classmates get their costumes ruined, but pinky comes up with the idea to combine their costumes into a caterpillar, or a “kid-erpillar” as she calls it.) and the story ends. Tyler solves his issue, but then the cheese sandwich console plays it’s jingle, signaling game time. “Cheese please!” These segments are interactive, having the viewer either call out the right choice, or saying the great big fancy word if they see a picture releated to the word, at the end. Pinky says “I love making up stories. I’ll bet you can make up a story, too!” And the episode ends. Cue the credits!

Mc’s:

Pinky dinky doo: the main character, pinky’s 7 years old and is very creative and energetic, almost feeling just lik a precure leader,

Tyler dinky doo: pinky’s younger 4 year old brother. slightly more anxious than pinky, but still loving her stories, asks before the story box song starts “Pinky, are you gonna make up a story?” And pinky responding with “yes-arooney postioony!”

mr Guinea pig: a Guinea pig, in pinky’s stories he’s actually quite smart, as he can play the guitar and has a pretty fancy cage, in one of the stories in the episodes, after pinky forgets to feed him, he runs away, but comes back at the end.

Pinky’s friends

In pinky’s stories, her friends usually show up. These include…

Bobby boom: A disabled (wheelchair rider, disabled rep, yey!) African-American boy who is the smartest, but kindest of pinky’s friends. In the story seen in the episode “boom! sonic boom!” Bobby is actually a superhero, being boom sonic boom, the fastest wheelchair user in this show’s universe.

Daffinee toilette: (yee that’s her real name, I wonder how she feels bout her last name….) daffinee is the most vain and snarky out of pinky’s friend group. being rich, as she has a butler, jinkins (named after Jim jinkins himself,) but she does have a kind heart, as she cares for pinky, in the story as seen in the episode “I want that!” Daffinee instantly calls for pinky when she can’t find her new doll, Spendy wendy, and in the story in the episode “pinky’s great big concert” she accidentally gets her hair stuck into a tuba shape, and pinky discovers that her hair does work lik a real tuba, allowing pinky to have a instrument for the concert, (I hc her dating pinky in the future.)

Nicholas biscuit: The class clown out of pinky’s friends. Nicholas is pinky’s best friend. He aspires to be a magician, calling himself ”the great biscotti” as seen in the first episode, he owns a skateboard. there’s not a lot to say bout him as he doesn’t rlly have a lot of spotlight episodes.

side characters:

grandma dinky doo: being mentioned in the episode “pinky dinky doo and the outer space fluffy buns.” As the creator of the fluffy buns, muffin/cupcake lik snacks. She makes her first offical appearance in season 2, which I mention below,

Daddy dinky doo: pinky and tyler’s dad, in the official website it’s mentioned that he’s a writer, although we never see him do any writing. mommy dinky doo: pinky and tyler’s mom. Not alot to say on her, as much lik Nicholas, she doesn’t have any spotlight episodes,

Episodes that changed the formula:

there’s actually quite a few episodes that had different characters use the think big ability, lik “shrinky pinky”, which had mr guinea pig think big, or “Tyler to the rescue” where Tyler has to rescue pinky from a gorilla, and had use the think big ability.

pinky doesn’t lik pink:

Pinky, despite her name being pinky, her hair being pink, doesn’t lik pink, this is a running gag, it’s talked bout in the episode “pinky and the pink phenomenon.” As there’s a flamingo (also named pinky) who colors everything he finds pink, annoying pinky, this is also why in “Tyler to the rescue” the gorilla kidnaps pinky, because she liked pinky’s hair.

Season 2’s great big fancy changes:

season two is a big season for the show, as the show actually switched animation/art styles. Going from flash animation to a psudo 2d/cgi animation, done by keyframe digital (which would later animate the universal kids/cbc kids show Ollie the boy who became what he ate, which I hc takes place in the same world due to having a similar art style,) some voice actors (Tyler, daffinee and mr guinea pig) got their voices replaced (pinky’s stayed, although she now sounds much older.) we also got a backstory episode for pinky. “Pinky thinky doo.” In it, pinky’s grandma is the one who taught a younger pinky how to think big, and in “Tyler’s story box disaster” tyler accidentally breaks the story box, causing pinky to use the story pad to write the story. It later reappears in “are you my mummy?” As the pre-story for the episode takes place in a store, special mention for the episode “big brain block!” Where pinky experiences the worst thing a writer can deal with….writers block. And tyler has to write the story.

That’s exactly what happened…pretty much. The end:

As they say, all good things, must come to a end, and on January 9th, 2010. The show did, ending with the episodes “pinky’s silliest story” (putting scenes from the intro in a episode) and “Tyler’s big idea.” (Pinky, bobby and tyler explore tyler’s brain to awaken his imagination.) Both giving the show a good farewell, The show actually has quite a few pieces of merchandise. Gund made plushies and picture frames. And there’s a dvd release of the episode “polka dot pox” that has become quite rare and expensive online, as for modern watchability…the show used to be on Netflix, and on hbo family and hbo max until 2021, (zaslav…) when it got removed. The show also had a few flash games, “eat it or wear it,” where you have to put stuff in a eat it pile, or a wear it pile, and “the great big fancy word game” where you have to watch a clip and choose what great big fancy word the clip is referring to,

Lost dubs:

there was in fact, a Japanese dub of this show, which it is now lost media, having aired on Cartoon Network japan’s preschool block, Pipora pepora. Only a episode list of season 1 and the names of some of the voice actors remain. There was also a British English dub, airing on cbeebies in the uk, which has also become lost media,

if you have any memories of this show. Feel free to discuss it.

question… are urban and sage besties??? Like if they are can we get a glimpse into what they are like around each other?

-🍾

BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER

It’s safe to say that Sage cannot remember when she met Urban

Urban on the other hand remembers a day, around the time that him and Jack first met. Sage had come to get fetch her brother with their mom. He remembers how a little girl came into the classroom as everyone else was leaving, she waved at Urban then bagged Jack to hurry up so that she could get home and watch the Amazing World of Gumball.

Looking back on the day brings a lot of laughter to the group but Sage denies the existence on that day

As she got older she talked to him more and asked the most random questions. It was always funny and adorable because of how young and naive she was

Urban was also the first person she told about getting a role in Thor, was she only 7? Yes but she was extremely excited regardless of the situation

Around that time, Jack started rapping and although she was to young to exactly understand what was happening she was excited for the both of them regardless

As she got older she became more focused on achieving the future of her dreams as did her older brother and best friend. The three supported eachother always

Sage was and still is a perfectionist so when she had a dance recital she couldn’t sleep because she’d stay up practicing for hours on end. Often Urban would come to the Harlows and make her go to bed.

He’d help her make her audition tapes and would record her dance recitals.

Overall, Urban is probably one of her biggest supporters

And while she was growing up he was also of her friend, despite the age gap he was always there for her

Like the day she really understood that was when she was in middle school. Jack and Urban had just started high school and Sage had just started Middle school. Urban remembers seeing the younger girl walking towards the Harlow household from her bus stop with tears marks on her face. Jack nor Clay nor their parents were home at the time. Urban discovered that some older kids had been picking on her. He comforted her as expected and assured her that she was perfect the way that she was. The unexpected this was what happened next. She got revenge, well with Urbans help of course, he went to the same middle school so he knew all the ins and outs. The two wonder how their prank on the group didn’t result in them getting in a massive load of trouble but I guess we’ll never know, that was the first time they truly bonded

Urban remembers all the stories she’d share with him, clay and Jack about filming in Atlanta. She’d call one of the three almost every day to tell them something new about the set life but couldn’t spoil or say to much despite the amount of times they asked for info

They’d always have inside jokes that no one else understood

Making thousands of drafts or dances they could never get right

He’d always steal her phone and post random shit on her spam

Which irritated her a lot but she’d always do the same but on his main.

Whenever one of them is in town they’d always play some sort of video game, usually Call of Duty, Fortnite or Minecraft

They’d go for walks in the morning to catch up

Or just have late night jamming sessions

They’re just eachothers number one supporters

Always hyping each other up on any and every platform

THE BIRTHDAY POSTS OMG

Cutest shit you’ll ever see

It’s always some baby or fetus pictures then a horrible video

The fans go crazy

There’s just something about Sages bond with Urban that’s different from the one with her brothers

She calls him Kurby Bucket

He calls her salsa sage

The nick name is a long story

They have a handshake that they’ve been doing for about 10 years

It took them a month to get it right

They also basically have their own code and shit

He always sends random text messages of his theories for the things she’s going to be in

Mainly stranger things

She just laughs at him and changes the subject

Urban always gets to hear sneak peaks of her songs ahead of time

He knew the title of her album a while before most did

It’s safe to say that Urban is basically her other big brother

A/N: here were goo 🍾anon, I love these two sm. keep sending requests

I'm sorry to bother you but I have to say I find Dib's treatment in the show/comics flat out uncomfortable a lot of the time. It feels like his whole role is to get treated like shit and fail at everything and it's not funny to me.

Also the opening of the comics pissed me off, it's basically mocking Dib for being fat and gross, I genuinely don't get why people praise it. There's also issue 5. It made me hate Gaz, it seems she never gets called out for her selfish and cruel behavior.

all in all the treatment for dib is ridiculous in my humble opinion. Of course- if you find it funny i’m not going to pull you apart for it, but his treatment does make me sad, mostly because there’s no bigger picture taken out of it for the show, movie or comics. Any younger children that might’ve been able to see the show, movie, or the comics might actually be bummed tf out because of there being no takeaway lesson- which also makes me sad LMAOO.

I see where you’re coming from!! it makes me upset too. The way all the characters are treated makes me so upset like on an emotional level- but that’s unfortunately how their universe works :((. not defending it or anything you know. Nick canceling the show really ruined any progress we would’ve / could’ve seen in the characters- and when they revived the movie and the comics came out you didn’t get to see much character development either- which- for me- a person who love’s character development- FINDS VERYY SAD. The creator states a couple of times though that the characters can’t really change- which upsets tf outa me. (that’s why my hcs are so heavy for Invader Zim actually.) ((it’s like parenting a thing you enjoy it’s genuinely insane.))

Gaz is mostly mean due to the fact her dad is never around- and Dib seems to be just too much for her. Also- the way her ‘mother’ (if they even ever had one) is never brought up. Though the way Gaz acts has always been pointed out ESPECIALLY by parents who viewed the show when it aired- they complained about her hate for her brother. Another instance of issues not getting to be solved with the time and creation of the show / comics- yet again sad. I’d also argue that the fandom played a big part in Jhonen’s dislike for his own creation. If you’ve known Invader Zim for long enough- the fandom is HORRIFYING. not to drag *it* in again but Zadr / humanxirken shippers tanked the fandom because it’s either a super toxic ship or literally p3d0ph1ll1a. (had to censor the word sorry.)

The fandom also has incest. which is disgusting beyond belief. I’ve only been a fan of the show for about 4 years now- but despite me posting my art for it, i don’t talk about it much with strangers because of it. All of the stuff that’s happened in the fandom drive Jhonen to literally end the comics with a groundhog day. I HATE GROUNDHOG DAYS. YOUR DISLIKE IS VERY JUSTIFIED!!

A bit of a tangent here but I have my whole AU with a more found family. Zim realizes his tallest dont care about him, Dib gets respected more, Gaz becomes a bit less harsh and Membrane fixes his fucking parenting issues. I understand Zim’s an old man but bro just joins the Membrane family and becomes a brother to Dib because he can. That’s just my coping mechanism for the show/movie/comics LMAO. like I said though your opinion is justified!! I don’t get to talk about it ever but the way every character’s treated and handled is honestly kinda sucky and maybe I just have high empathy and don’t like seeing others upset but i genuinely want the best for these little imaginary guys. I want them to be ok.

Calling all Only Friends fans who are willing to discuss some mbti opinions

Sooooo I for one am obsessed with mbti, and I am always trying to figure out the mbti of every character in all media I can consume, and I wanted some of y’all’s opinions on 3 specific characters from Only Friends:

April

Dan

Boeing

I am on the Personality Database constantly, and I know Only Friends already exists there, but these three aren’t on that page, and I’m too lazy to add their profiles on their myself, so I’m asking y’all what you think their personality types are.

I’m gonna put my own opinions under the cut, you aren’t obligated to look at them, it’s totally valid if you wanna form your own opinions and then look at mine so mine won’t cloud your judgment before thinking up your own, if you do look at mine please don’t criticize me if you strongly disagree with me.

(Also I will happily talk about any character’s mbti in this show, or any other show/media (if it’s media I consume) for that matter, if y’all wanna discuss more!)

April: ISFP. I’m actually pretty sure on this one even though she hasn’t had that much screentime. However if she’s an ISTP that wouldn’t exactly surprise me. I might be stereotyping a bit since she’s into indie films, but overall I’ve just gotten the ISFP vibe from her.

Dan: either ENFJ or ISFJ. Yeah I know those two aren’t that much alike. That’s what confuses me about my opinions too. I am pretty sure he has strong Fe though. I think I may lean a little bit towards intuition for him because of how open he was to whatever Nick thought of the relationship, also ENFJ and INFP get along really well and usually work well romantically, and Nick is an INFP. I can’t tell if him saying he has never dated a younger person before is a sign of Si and he’s basically expressing he has no former experience to go off of or if it’s a sign of Ni because he’s open to trying it. Either way FJ types are both really good with communication, and he’s one of the only people in this series that communicates properly.

Boeing: I literally have no clue at all. He confuses me so much. Literally for all the letters I’m like “yeah I can’t see any particular lean.” I feel like if he took the test all the percentages would be pretty close to even. He has his own agenda but can easily fit into any situation. Based off of that though, I’m gonna say perceiving type. My gut is telling me IxFP, and if he were an ISFP the “Mew is a better version of me” comment would make sense since Mew is an INFP (look I know the consensus on the pdb right now is INFJ but nah my boy Mew is an INFP) (sorry again for stereotyping ISFPs, I really gotta examine my biases as an intuitive person now). But honestly though I think he sees the bigger picture too much to be a sensor. As for extroversion vs introversion… I think he’s an ambivert? He’s not really radiating enough extroverted energy for me to type him as E, but even as I write this I’m starting to doubt myself. As for why I think he’s a feeler, I just see Fi in him. But like,, again, if he has dom Ti and inf Fe that also wouldn’t surprise me. I am not any more sure than how I was when I started this paragraph of nonsense.

Hope you enjoyed my musings!

Planning out a fanfic for the Quarry and I keep finding little inconsistent details while playing through the game. Warning: major spoilers, of course. Also sorry for the long post, I'll edit in a line break when I'm on my laptop!

Ryan asks Chris H. his advice about attending an animation school. He never mentions an interest in art/animation before or after that point. Tells Dylan later that he struggles with technology stuff. Not saying you can't be an animator and be bad at technology, but feels kind of odd to me personally.

Emma jumps into the lake without her phone wearing only her underwear and she doesn't return to the dock. She uses her phone later on the island and can take a picture that is used as evidence. If she leaves the island the taser is shown to be unusable due to water. She could have a waterproof phone case, but still weird timeline wise?

If you take the rotor arm Jacob will drop it in the lake. But this is after he jumped into the water in only his underwear. Same problem as before, we don't see him holding it in the water and why did he take it with him at all and not put it safely in his pants pocket on the dock?

Constance drags Laura out of the cellar by her hair. Not saying elderly women can't be physically strong, but she literally drags a struggling grown woman with enhanced strength across the floor one handed by her hair? It's established in an earlier scene that Laura is already experiencing increased strength due to the werewolf infection setting in. She should be able to easily throw off a human of average strength and doesn't?

Same scene: Ryan runs away back through the cellar when Laura is being dragged up by Constance. We cut away to a different scene and when we return Laura is still in the same situation (being dragged) and Ryan is being restrained by Bobby in the dinning room above the cellar. The timeline of character actions is inconsistent. Also: Jedediah wasn't present before the cut and is shown after the cut, same as Bobby.

If Laura, Travis, and Ryan are all alive after Chris is dead and agree to work together Ryan will mention seeing the white wolf near the camp cabins. I genuinely don't know when this is supposed to have happened? I thought the werewolf that attacked the counselors at the radio hut/camp cabins was Caleb? I can't find anything online that specifically says who infected Dylan during that encounter. It's also too dark to really tell if the werewolf Ryan sees can even be described as white in my honest opinion..

Speaking of Silas: why is he called the white wolf when it's always too damn dark to even tell any of the colors of the shown werewolves. The shadows are so intense and they're usually covered in dark blood anyways and I can barely tell the difference between Silas and the others while comparing still screenshots. I don't think he should be like glowing from how pale he's supposed to be, but at least make him light enough to distinguish from a glance? Or use another easily identifiable feature to help the player/audience see how he's different from the others? Idk just seems like build up for something that isn't actually true?

Also isn't Silas supposed to be a child? Or at the very least younger than the rest of the cast. His human model looks at the youngest to be in his mid-teens. Six years have passed since he was last actually seen by anyone, so I guess if he was 9-12 that would make him 15-18 for the events of the game. It's still confusing though because of how little we actually know about Silas and his history.

Abi can be bitten and infected at the same time Nick is. She is always cured, implying that Kaylee was who bit her, who is guaranteed to die regardless of player choices. But the game is inconsistent in how Abi reacts while infected after being bitten compared to Nick's steady transition towards aggression and possessiveness. The writers could just leave it up for the interpretation of the audience about why they act differently (all the characters behave differently from each other while infected), but it still feels like Abi is going through no real changes at all and probably should be displaying some outward signs of the infection setting in.

If anyone has any explanation or proof about who actually bites Dylan in the Radio Hut I'd really appreciate hearing it because I feel like I'm just straight up missing something? I don't know?

Headcanon: The Park-Tennyson Kids!

(Steve Tennyson - Lucas Till

Nadia Park - Cassie Ventura)

My hc for all my PM universes so far have been that Steve gets saved from the Arctic HQ in each one, and therefore that they get married soon after the finale. I kinda see both of them as loving the idea of a big family, so I gave them 5 kids! (MC will have two, Sloane will have two, and Hamza is basically the big brother to the entire group of young 'uns 😁)

The eldest three of Nadeve's kids are adopted, and the youngest two Nadia had through treatment at a fertility clinic. Kim and Sloane definitely helped her through that process.

Nadia and Steve had taken almost two years before they actually started the procedures for adoption. They spent their first year settling together and being comfortable with each other, and the topic of children came up often during that first year. Both preferred a large family in a big house at Cedar Rest someday, and both were open to adoption and preferring to leave fertility treatments for a little later.

Ruth Park-Tennyson

(FC: Ayo Edebiri)

• One year before they adopted Ruth, Nadia and Steve made sure to do as much research as possible - which organisations, how to prepare their home etc. Nadia was always the kind that grew up in a huge family and loved the dynamics. And the more settled Steve became in the identity Eros had crafted for him, the more comfortable he was with himself and the more eager to grow his own family. So they really wanted to give this first adoption, and this first kid, their best.

• It was (parental) love at first sight for both of them with Ruth. She was a year old when they adopted her.

• Ruth was a voracious reader from the time she turned three. Like most little kids, she loved the "textured" books but soon moved towards picture books, comics and long-form books as she grew.

• She showed an interest in her mom's art but more as an observer than as someone who wanted to make their own. Ruth always had a knack for pulling out multiple meanings and interpretations for a single work of art, a quality that delights and baffles both her dad and her uncle/aunt Hayden (basically these kids are part of all four universes 😄)

• She's a real academic at heart and loves writing. Dark Academia and Gothic Horror are her favourite genres to write. She eventually writes a series of her own and gains worldwide fame as an author.

• As a kid she was aware that her Auntie Sloane was writing books for children, and would often nick her drafts, put on fake glasses and tell her what she liked about it.

• She's quiet in public but VERY bossy towards her siblings. The biggest advantage to that is all of them definitely aced all their languages thanks to their sister 😄

• She gets a PhD in English Literature in her mid-30s. Dr. Ruth Park-Tennyson!

David Park-Tennyson

(FC: Nick Galitzine)

• David was three when Steve and Nadia adopted him, and was roughly the same age as Ruth...maybe 6 months younger.

• People would often say that there was a tiny bit of resemblance between David and Steve, which puzzled the hell out of Steve.

• Steve would later find out that one of David's birth parents was distantly related to his former Handler, Robert Tennyson. Robert Tennyson had based Steve on several members of his own family, which accounted for some of the resemblances.

• Would Ruth read aloud her favourite books to David once he became part of the family? Yes she did. Yes she did.

• When he grows up, all my Haydens (in different universes) realize he has a knack for theatre and can sing. They encourage him to join theatre and try Broadway.

• Like all my Haydens he also enjoys the opera 😁

• He does also eventually launch an independent music career at some point, mostly in contemporary pop.

• Nadia designed the cover for his first album, and his second - which focused on themes of home and identity - featured pictures of Steve, Nadia and their whole family.

Joshua Park-Tennyson

(FC: Rohit Saraf)

• Josh is two years younger than Ruth and David, and was adopted when they both were four.

• Gamer and loves digital art. The gaming company Khaan worked in before taking over Eros, Blue Fire, still operates and has released amazing games in the years since. It's always been Josh's dream to work there.

• Loves art in general...but digital art is where he is most gifted

• His mom Nadia is his biggest cheerleader. His dad too, though it can be a struggle for Steve to comment more beyond "indescribable". (Usually Hayden and Steve bypass that simply by concentrating on story elements or details they notice in the background, so it isn't too hard now).

• Nadia and Josh love different mediums, but every once in a while they like to sit and sketch stuff together. Preferably out in the open!

• Always the first to jump up and go whenever Nadia feels like visiting an art museum or exhibition. For one of his birthdays, they all go to the Louvre.

• He eventually does work at Blue Fire for a few years, then builds his own games and has his own company.

Tabitha Park-Tennyson

(FC: Michelle Lee)

• Tabby is the animal lover of the family and eventually becomes a vet.

• At some point, after thinking over it and seriously consulting Kim and Sloane, Nadia decides to try fertility treatments. By the time she has Tabby, Ruth and David are 7, and Josh is 5.

• The older siblings spoil Tabby silly, and Tabby also joins them in spoiling the youngest, Matt, silly.

• Tabby always brought all kinds of injured tiny animals home, and tried to nurse them back to health or take them to the vet when her parents advised her to.

• She absolutely LOVES Dipper and Sloane's cat Felicette.

• Favourite food (to Hayden's chagrin) is pineapple on pizza. Steve and Tabby always have a dad-daughter pizza night whenever they can 😄

Matthew Park-Tennyson

(FC: Han Hyun Min)

• Matt is the youngest, but ironically is the one who loves to pamper everyone and bake them cookies.

• He will ABSOLUTELY make all the treats, for any house party, by hand.

• He loves baking! He picked it up from Steve, of course, and is the only person who has the privilege of knowing exactly how to recreate his dad's lemon bars.

• He also picked up knitting and crocheting at some point as a stress buster. He often makes cute little things with those skills for not just the family but their larger family (the cousins, the group etc) too.

Family HCs:

• The Park-Tennysons eventually relocate to Cedar Rest sometime between the years of Josh's entry into the household and Tabitha's birth.

• All the kids have a sweet tooth so don't be surprised when food wars erupt just coz they ran out of chocolate lol
