Happy Birthday Juicy! (Not Wholesome)

This one is smut that was requested by @juicyyyboxxx for their birthday. (Possessive)Sun & Moon x Reader. Contains biting/hickeys and all sorts of spicy stuff.

5600+ words. Enjoy~

Edit: Hey guys. Do me a favor and don’t like/reblog this if you find it. I don’t want to delete it, and I’m not sure if there’s a way to private/mute a post this old. But the person I wrote it for isn’t in my life anymore, for reasons I don’t really know and therefor can’t really understand. It hurts being reminded of someone who decided to cut contact out of the blue.

Thanks.

Another day, another dollar, here at Fazbear. The family friendly Pizzeria and Arcade. The place where magic happened.

For everyone but you, at least. For you, it was just another work day.

Just another work day that happened to be your birthday.

Not that it mattered. You certainly weren’t getting one of those opt-in celebratory announcements offered by the company. Because Fazbear, ever the penny pinching establishment, would have taken money out of your paycheck if you had opted in. If memory served right, they would have charged you something like $50 for a miniature cake with a candle, a couple of streamers, and some party hats. Party hats which all of the staff bots would have been stuck wearing.

The wonders of capitalism! Where work could charge you $50 for something that might cost you $15 to put together yourself.

No.

None of that.

You wouldn’t be paying that much for an empty sentiment. Forcing a bunch of animatronics and coworkers to celebrate your birthday just felt wrong. Getting all of those disingenuous birthday wishes would only rub salt into the wounds dealt by reality.

This was just another day that happened to be your birthday.

There was no one at home waiting for you. Not even a house plant.

The house plant had long since died of neglect. Or of depression.

Being stuck with you whenever you were home must’ve sapped the life out of the poor thing. Not that you could blame it if that was the case. The only company it ever had was an exhausted minimum wage worker who forgot to water it most days.

Aka you.

You and the empty silence of your home.

That was how you knew life was bad. Somehow, it was better to be at work.

The animatronics were lively. Seeing all the happy kids playing in the arcade or the daycare filled a void in you in a way you couldn’t quite explain.

Really, it was the sound of their laughter. The sound of joy just had a way of dulling the ache residing in your chest. Laughter brought a sense of unity. That sense of unity went to war with loneliness.

Most days, that false sense of belonging felt just real enough to chase away the feeling of emptiness for a while.

Only for a while.

But today, unfortunately, wasn’t most days.

Because you knew it was your birthday. You knew that it was supposed to be a day of celebration.

Yet you had to treat it just like any other unimportant day.

In doing so, you made yourself feel unimportant. Or maybe you just reminded yourself of how unimportant you were, in the grand scheme of things.

What a depressing way of thinking, that was. Not that you could help it.

Even here in the daycare, you couldn’t help it. Despite the cheerful, upbeat music that was playing, you couldn’t help but feel glum. You couldn’t help but feel lonely and neglected.

For the sake of the kids, you pushed through it. For the sake of keeping them happy and not worrying them, you put on your best customer service smile and did your job with forced enthusiasm. You certainly had the little ones fooled with your little show.

The Daycare Attendant animatronic, on the other hand, was not so easily fooled. Not that they did anything to hint at them noticing your glum mood.

You spent the day going about business as usual. You played with the little ones. You helped pass out snacks come snack time. You cleaned dirty faces and hands. You dealt with the tantrums of the tots that didn’t want to settle down for naptime. Anything that Sun or Moon might need help with, you did, and you did it to the best of your ability.

This was the usual routine in the daycare. Children were a handful, but you didn’t hate dealing with them.

Was it tiring? Yes.

Was it fulfilling? Absolutely.

Did it always make you just a little bit sad when the day was over and the kids had all gone home for the day? Unfortunately, yes.

It was always sad when the kids were gone and work was done. Because that meant that your shift was almost over, and that it was time for you to head home.

Normally, you would stick around for the cleanup then chat with Sun or Moon until the end of your shift.

Generally it only took fifteen to twenty minutes. You expected it to only take those fifteen to twenty minutes.

What you didn’t expect was for the lights to go out when it was time for you to leave.

What you didn’t expect was for metal arms to wrap around you as you stood to make your way towards the doors. Or for a large, animatronic hand to cover your mouth to stifle your voice.

It was hard not to panic when you were suddenly being abducted by an animatronic. It didn’t matter that you knew the animatronic in question. It didn’t matter that you were friends with them, or that you trusted them. Rumors of past incidents rushed to the front of your mind as you were dragged back.

Moon was so much bigger than you that he easily lifted you off of the floor. His metal body had a strength that no mortal human could match. He chuckled in your ear as you reflexively kicked your legs. All the while he kept his hand over your mouth to repress your shouts for help.

You were dragged away. Taken beyond the observation of the cameras, just as the time clock automatically clocked you out at the end of your shift.

Moon took you into the air, if only briefly, for the sake of dragging you to his and Sun’s shared room. All the while he ignored the tears rolling down your face as the panic set in.

You were dragged into the dark, cluttered space. The space where you anticipated that horrible things might come to befall you, because you had heard the stories of prior incidents with Moon.

Apparently, they hadn’t gotten rid of whatever glitch or virus it was that made him turn on people. That made him turn on his friends.

You clenched your eyes shut as he sat upon the ground. Your mind got away from you, picturing all of the painful things that he could do to your body. You were helpless as a doll in his hold. He could bend you and break you with ease.

But the pain never came.

He propped himself up upon the wall of his room. As his back pressed against the wall, he pulled you back. He propped you up against his chest. His hand never left your mouth. His arm never unwrapped itself from around your torso.

But his grip relaxed.

His grip relaxed and what sounded like a relaxed sigh escaped him. Your eyes slowly opened.

Moon wasn’t hurting you. His drastic change in attitude since getting you into his room implied that he had no intention of hurting you.

Still, your heart pounded in your chest.

The only light in the space came from his glowing red eyes. There wasn’t even enough light for you to see whatever it was he had in his room. You had never been in here before. Not alone or with either of them, because it was their space and you had been warned to keep out of it.

Yet here you were. Forcefully brought here in a terrifying manner. Just being held. Silently. The only sound in the space coming from the daycare music being played over the sound system.

The stillness and the silence lasted for a long time. Long enough that it became obvious when the Pizzeria had closed down.

Once all of the customers had left for the night, the lights flickered back on.

Once the lights flickered back on, you heard Moon transition back to Sun. The clicking of his solar rays springing from his head broke the silence. The motion of his hand as it began to caress your tear stained cheeks broke the stillness.

He sat forward and tightened his arm around your torso, pulling you into a tight hug.

You were still so stunned and confused that you couldn’t find your voice. Still, a few final tears spilled from your eyes as you closed them.

You relaxed into the hug.

Sun would never hurt you. You knew that. You felt so much safer now that he was the one in control.

A faint hiccup escaped you as you turned to hide your face in his arm.

You didn’t know why Moon had snatched you like that. But you knew that he had scared the life out of you. You knew that for a few minutes, you had genuinely feared for your life.

In those minutes, you were left pondering the depressing reality of how little it would matter if anything happened to you. How there would be no one around to mourn you. How your disappearance would just be swept under the rug, because there would be no one out there pressing for answers.

Sun gently shushed you as you began to quietly sob.

The fear was gone now. All that remained was that deep sense of worthlessness that generally only met you once you had gotten home.

That and the shame that you felt for letting that pain show in front of anyone.

Still, the animatronic attempted to comfort you. He held you close as he gently rocked himself.

“I’m sorry that we scared you.” Sun hummed, his chipper voice quieter than you’d ever heard it be. He leaned further to brush your cheek with his nose. He was trying to calm you down. Trying to comfort you.

Gradually you calm down. The gentle way that he held you and his soft humming reassured you.

You were safe. He wouldn’t hurt you.

He wouldn’t let anything hurt you.

“Wh-why?...” You eventually choke out. You still have no idea why Moon snatched you like that. You still have no idea why Sun is just holding you like this. You would have expected him to help you get down. For him to make sure that you could leave.

He pulled his head back ever so slightly. You locked your eyes with him. He almost seemed sad that you had even asked.

“We didn’t want you to leave.” Sun responded, his voice still quiet. He then leaned back down. Again, he began to nuzzle your cheek. But the nuzzling soon became kissing.

The contact sent chills running through your body.

It scared you. It scared you because you couldn’t tell for sure if you hated what he was doing, or if you wanted it.

It scared you because you shouldn’t want it.

Sun was an animatronic. He shouldn’t even behave like this.

Yet here he was kissing your cheek. Kissing your neck. Before you realized it, he had taken hold of your hand.

Then the lights flicked out again.

Fear momentarily spiked as you heard Moon reclaim control. He squeezed your hand as he felt the tremble roll through your body. But he continued where Sun left off.

He continued to pepper your neck with kisses.

“Don’t leave us. Never. Never!” Moon growled, his voice louder and more ominous than Sun’s. He didn’t sound threatening, per say, but still his tone scared you slightly.

There was a possessive tone in his voice.

The way he held you, it was obvious that he didn’t want you to escape him. He used his arm and legs as a cage, preventing you from slipping from his grasp.

What was strange was that you didn’t actually want to leave.

You had always hated having to leave at the end of your shift. You had hated going home to that empty building, where nothing waited for you but silence.

Intimidated as you were by Moon’s sudden possessive behavior, some part of you absolutely loved it. Some part of you desperately wanted to be wanted. You didn’t care if it was an animatronic or a human that wanted you. All that mattered was that you were wanted.

The way that Moon began to touch you, you knew that you were wanted.

It was nothing overly inappropriate, at the start. He kept hold of your hand as he kissed your neck.

Then eventually the hand that held your face began to move.

His fingers traced your throat. Your breath hitched at the feel of him caressing your neck.

He never squeezed. He never made a move to harm you. But the anxiety still crept back, if only for a moment. If only while his fingers teased what had to be the most vulnerable part of your body.

But his hand continued to trail down.

For as possessive and clingy as he was being, he didn’t touch you in any way that could be considered blatantly sexual. He didn’t grope your breasts as he trailed his hand down.

The most sexual he got, in that moment, was putting his hand under your shirt. But all he did was caress you. He traced little patterns on your abdomen or on your side. He held you firmly but he touched you gently.

It was as if he was trying to apologize for the terror that he had instilled into you when he brought you here.

You didn’t hate it.

The touching and the kissing didn’t stop when the lights flickered back on. The contact only paused momentarily as Sun regained control. But it never stopped. And it never stopped feeling possessive.

If anything, Sun somehow felt more possessive than Moon as he held you.

“Never leave...” Sun murmured, pulling his face from your neck so that he could bring his lips back to your cheek.

He kissed you once. His lips met the skin beneath your eye.

He kissed you twice. He found your cheek.

He kissed you thrice. His lips met the corner of your mouth, all the while avoiding your lips.

You turned to face him.

He let you initiate the fourth kiss, where his lips finally met your own. Chills ran up your spine at the contact. Good chills. Pleasant chills.

His touch grew more persistent in response to the kiss. You hadn’t reacted negatively or done anything to try and push him away. You had accepted his advances.

Now it seemed as if he fully intended to see how much you would let him do.

Admittedly, you wanted to see just how far he could take it.

You kissed him again. He deepened the kiss.

Why an animatronic had a tongue, you still didn’t understand.

Admittedly, you didn’t care. All that mattered was how good it felt when his tongue made its way into your mouth.

It wouldn’t exactly be wrong to say that he was forceful. But it wouldn’t exactly be right either.

Whenever you showed signs of hesitation, he backed off. When his tongue went too deep. When his hands held you just a little too tight. Any time you showed signs of distress, he would take a metaphorical step back to let you work your way back to him.

He allowed you to turn around so that you could face him.

In doing so, you wound up straddling him. You sat in his lap with your knees on either side of him. His hands never left your body as you moved. He went from caressing your stomach to caressing your back.

His fingers tickled you faintly. Completely unintentionally, at first. Still, he pauses as you pant against his lips.

You don’t quite laugh.

You don’t quite moan.

Your voice doesn’t know what to do, so the noise you make is a strange one. One that catches his attention through the haze of lust that has overtaken you both. When he pauses, you whine softly.

When his fingers begin to dance along your back, you whine louder.

He’s not quite tickling you, but it still tickles. Enough so that he coaxes a reluctant laugh from your lips.

A warm smile spreads across his features as he hears you laugh. Then a happy giggle escapes him.

He seems genuinely relieved to hear you laugh. You don’t get the chance to question his behavior. The lights flicker off again and Moon regains control.

He proves to be much, much less patient than Sun. He uses his hold on your back to pull you flush against him.

In an instant, you find yourself pinned beneath his body. That ominous red glint in his eyes shows off how possessive he is. It establishes fully what he intends to do to you.

In a stark contrast to Sun, he bends you to his will.

When Moon kisses you, he takes what he wants. When his tongue invades your mouth, it does so with purpose. He snakes his tongue into your throat to taste you fully.

The sensation is strange, but not unpleasant. He’s persistent, but he lets you breathe. In increments, at least.

He swallows your moans as his hands begin to roam your body. One of them, at least. He resumes caressing your abdomen with one hand while the other reclaims a partner. He gently squeezes your hand as he massages your throat from the inside with his tongue.

He breaks the kiss to let you breathe just as your vision begins to get spotty. Tears prick your eyes.

Not from pain.

Not from fear.

In the heat of the moment, you’re starting to get emotional. The way he touches you, you can tell he’s holding himself back. You can feel by the faint tremble of his fingers that he wants to do so, so much more to you.

In a surprisingly tender show of affection, Moon pauses to lightly kiss below your eye. A peculiar sound escapes him as he does so. Not quite a growl. Not really a groan. But you can tell what it means. The sight of your tears upsets him.

“No more tears.” Moon coos, his tongue darting past his lips to lick the tears from your cheek. “No more sadness.” He adds, bringing his mouth down so that he can resume kissing your neck. If he could pant, you imagine that he would be panting against your skin.

There follows a faint twinge of pain as his sharp teeth pierce the flesh on the side of your throat.

“No more being lonely. Only happiness here. With Sun. With me. All of us. Together. Forever.” His voice escapes him as a possessive growl as he bites you again, slightly harder than before. He proceeds to litter your neck and shoulder with all manner of small bites.

He marks you as his. All the while his hand sneaks into your clothes to touch you more intimately.

You can’t help but moan his name as his fingers find your most intimate place.

He touches you through your underwear.

Rubbing.

Pressing.

Caressing.

He makes you feel good all while denying you the most direct contact. Just because he wants to hear you whine. Just because he wants to feel you squirming underneath him.

You do just that. How could you hold still when his fingers were touching you so fervently? When his teeth were marking you so purposefully?

He claimed you as his possession while denying you what you so desperately craved.

Then the lights flickered back on again. Everything paused for just a moment as Sun regained control.

You foolishly anticipated that the biting might stop. But the opposite happened.

Moon’s antics must have flipped some sort of switch. Sun moved to litter the other side of your neck with marks.

His teeth were dull compared to Moon’s. So he never broke the skin. He effectively left hickeys all over you. All while he maintained that sweet friction between your legs.

His touch seemed so desperate.

The more you moaned for him, the more he touched you.

He wanted you. He needed you.

He needed to know for certain that you enjoyed what he was doing.

“Sun! Please!” You can’t help the plea that bursts past your lips.

The teasing.

The biting.

The touching.

All of it has worked you so, so close to orgasm. But you need that extra push. You need that extra contact.

Sun surprises you with the possessive growl that escapes him. He bites your neck hard as his fingers find their way into your underwear.

At last he touches you directly. His fingers find their way into you. With how slick you’ve gotten from the excitement of it all, there’s no issues there. He keeps his jaws clamped around the nape of your neck as he caresses you from the inside. He curls and presses his fingers in swift, firm motions.

It takes so little effort on his part to get you to make a mess of his hand. But he doesn’t stop moving his fingers as your climax hits. He continues to caress that sweet spot as you moan and tremble against him. All the while he sucks lightly on the freshly created bruise he’s left upon your neck.

Your mind has gone blank by the time he withdraws his fingers.

You’re a complete and utter mess. Neck covered in marks. Bruises and bites delivered by a possessive animatronic lover.

When Sun sits up and pulls away from you, a pathetic whine escapes your lips. He shushes you in response. Gently. As he offers a soft, affectionate smile.

“My sweet, sweet girl~” Sun coos, tugging at your pants to slide them off of you.

You tremble as the cold air hits your damp, heated skin. Your cheeks burn as you watch the trail of slick cling to your panties as they’re pulled away from your crotch. You really did make a mess. An embarrassing, needy mess.

“I’ll take good, good care of you. Just stay.” He purrs, sweetly begging for you to stay with him while shifting to lay on his stomach.

You tremble from the anticipation of it all as you watch him. He grabs some sort of pillow to help prop up your lower half as he makes himself comfortable.

His fingers wrap around your hips to hold you steady as he brings his mouth between your legs.

He kisses you, to start. You can’t hope to contain the moan that escapes you as his lips meet your clitoris.

He has no business being this good at what he’s doing. He has no business even knowing how to do this.

But he does. And you love every second of it as things continue.

His tongue brushes against you.

Slowly.

Sensually.

He moans at the taste of your arousal, locking eyes with you as he partakes of your nectar. He seems genuinely excited as his tongue begins to prod against you.

But the lights flicker out once more.

For a split second, you saw the desperation in his eyes as he realized that he was about to close control. But he didn’t fight it.

His mouth went still for a moment as Moon claimed control of their shared body.

You watch, admittedly anxious, as those red eyes flicker back on.

You feel the smirk that tugs at his lips as he assesses the situation.

He most definitely knew what was going on. But he almost seems surprised that he’s the one that’s in control.

Thinking back, the flickering of the lights is a bit odd. It's almost as if they intended on taking turns once they had you here. The flickering of the lights decided who would be in control and when.

“My turn now, Sunshine~” Moon growls, dragging his tongue between your folds. He moans hungrily as he does so, coaxing an excited tremble out of you.

Something tells you that there was a reason behind Sun being bothered by his loss of control. Whether or not that meant you were in danger, you had no idea.

Not at first.

Not until his tongue invaded your slick, waiting orifice.

He didn't wait. He didn’t hesitate.

A startled gasp escaped you as he pressed his tongue completely inside.

And he went in deep. Deeper than Sun’s fingers had dared to go.

Oh yeah. You understood now why Sun wanted to be the one to do this. He would have taken time to warm you up.

Moon, on the other hand, was impatient.

Impatient and greedy.

He sucked his tongue back into his mouth briefly to swallow your taste. Then he thrust his tongue back in. Then out. Then in.

Repeatedly.

To say that he fucked you with his tongue would be accurate. He mewled and growled against you as he worked his tongue. All the while a smirk tugged at his lips as he listened to the sweet noises you made in response to his attention.

This continued until he brought you to your next orgasm. At which point he licked you more persistently.

“Clean up~ Clean up~” Moon teasingly purred, lapping up the honey that seeped from within you.

Your moans only grew more pathetic as he did so.

When he finally withdrew his tongue and sat up, you were left trembling.

Goodness, he had done a number on you with that tongue of his. You knew it. He knew it.

Still, he felt the need to make sure.

You watched as he sat up to study the mess that he had made of you. You watched as he hungrily licked the corner of his mouth. As his eyes fixated on your twitching vulva.

He seemed to be very, very proud of himself.

You can’t help but hide your face behind your hands as he proceeds to spread apart your lower lips. You listen to him purr to himself as he studies your quivering body.

“Beautiful~” Moon growls, sneaking his fingers closer to your vulva to lightly tease your recently stretched orifice.

You try to repress the whine that escapes you as he playfully stimulates your body.

This only seems to entice more teasing.

He puts you down completely and pulls his hands away.

You peek out from behind your fingers to figure out what he’s doing.

“Oh...” You murmur, unable to hide the surprise in your voice as he begins to slide his pants down his hips.

At first, you aren’t quite sure what he’s doing. He doesn’t have anything in his pants.

Or so you thought.

A chuckle passes his lips as he lightly taps the metal covering his groin. You watch, completely stunned, as the metal opens. A piece of metal slides upwards, retracting into a hidden compartment to reveal a silicone interior.

He uses a finger to coax out the upgrade that you never realized he had.

A long tendril of a penis snakes its way out of that hidden chamber in his body.

You shudder as you stare at it. He smirks down at you as you do.

It’s big. Not so big that you don’t think it’ll fit, but God will it be a stretch.

Beyond that, it’s glowing. Beautiful neon blue.

The animatronic chuckles to himself as he shifts to let his erect piece rub between your folds.

You jump faintly at the contact. It felt cold, at first. But it quickly warmed up in response to the heat of your body. Still, you trembled as he began to teasingly grind against you.

It was so slick and smooth.

One wrong motion of his hips and he would slide inside so easily.

You began to pant under your breath as you watched him.

“Do you want this~?” Moon curiously purred, his smirk never leaving his face as he locked eyes with you. He continued to teasingly rub himself against your wetness as he attempted to coax the confirmation past your lips. “Do you want me~? Do you want me inside you~?” He added, his voice giving way to a quiet groan as he nearly slipped inside.

Your lip quivered as you began to mentally prepare yourself for what was to come. You had to work up the courage to give him a response.

But the lights flicked back on.

You heard the faintest of disappointed whines escape Moon as he had to relinquish control to Sun.

For a few seconds, everything went still. Those few seconds felt like absolute agony. There was an erect cock pressed flush between your folds. You felt the heat that it gave off.

You watched as the color shifted from blue to yellow.

Sun regained control of his body. He trembled faintly as he gained the ability to feel the heat of your body against him.

You could see it in his eyes. He desperately wanted to stick it in and fuck your brains out. But he held himself back.

He held himself back, if just barely.

“O-oh, Starlight~” Sun cooed, his voice escaping him as a needy groan as he moved his hands to caress your thighs. “Please~ Please~! Please~!” He begged.

You couldn’t tell if he was begging you for permission or if he was begging you to tell him that you wanted it. Either way, the result would be the same.

Your breath escaped you as a needy pant as you watched him, finding yourself feeling equally as desperate for him as he was for you.

“P-put it in~!” You manage to pant out, maintaining unwavering eye contact with him as the words escape your lips.

With those words you sealed your fate. Sun didn’t hesitate. He had no reason to. Moon had already gotten your body thoroughly prepared for what was to come.

One smooth motion of his hips was all it took for him to slip inside.

With an additional rock of his hips, he buried himself.

Not all the way. Your body wasn’t ready to handle the sheer size of him just yet.

Thankfully he had enough self control to prevent himself from accidentally hurting you.

Still, you moaned and groaned.

It felt good. Really, really good.

At the same time, there was no denying how your body strained to accommodate him. It stung, but in the best possible way.

“Starlight~” Sun panted that sweet little nickname as he began to roll his hips against yours.

He was slow. For your sake. For the sake of making sure you felt good.

He let go of your highs as his hands moved down to your hips. Then down to your sides. To your chest. Until finally he sought out your hands. Sun intertwined his fingers with yours as he continued to thrust into you.

Little by little, you opened up for him. Inch by inch, he sunk his way inside of you.

By the time he was able to bury every inch of himself in your body, he had managed to bring you to orgasm. He didn’t slow the movements of his hips as you spasmed around him.

Slow and steady.

He locked eyes with you as you climaxed. He maintained that eye contact as he worked himself to orgasm.

When he came, he came a lot. Enough that you could feel the thick, viscous fluid pool in your abdomen. Enough that he forced his artificial seed to spurt from within you as he continued to rock his hips.

You rode out your orgasms together.

Panting.

Euphoric.

Embarrassed.

Sun leaned to steal your lips in another kiss as he finally slowed the motions of his body. His tongue snuck its way into your throat briefly once his body went still.

The exhaustion hit you as he broke the kiss.

That was the third time that you had been brought to orgasm.

You were hot. You were tired. Aroused as you still were, you definitely needed something of a break.

For a moment, you feared that you might not be given that break. The lights flickered out once more.

Sun relinquished control to Moon once the space went dark.

A faint whine escaped you as he abruptly moved. With your chest heaving as hard as it was, you couldn’t speak. You couldn’t try to ask him to let you rest.

Thankfully, you didn’t need to.

Moon hummed erotically as he sat up and slowly slipped out of you.

You heard the suction of your body trying to hold him in. You whined quietly at the feel of Sun’s seed spilling out of your body.

Moon wrapped his arms around you to pick you up. He brought you to his chest and he shushed you gently as he began to rock his body.

You weren’t quite sure if Sun’s orgasm had satisfied him, or if he simply recognized your exhaustion and had to submit to his programming.

He was made to put people to bed, after all.

Put you to bed, he did. He carried your virtually limp body over to a pile of pillows and blankets.

He laid down upon the pile and had you lay atop him.

A blanket was pulled from the pile to be draped over your shivering body. You relaxed almost immediately. Safe and warm and wanted.

“Happy birthday, Sunshine~” Moon cooed, affectionately nuzzling the top of your head as he laid you down to rest.

Happy tears pricked at your eyes as you inevitably drifted off.

Safe in his arms. Warm beneath the blanket. Having been given the only birthday gift that you ever could have asked for.

A sense of belonging.

For the first time in a long time, you fell asleep happy. Happy because you had finally found someone who held you close to their heart. Happy because you were loved. Undoubtedly so.

The way Moon cradled you against him, that much was obvious. The events leading up to this moment had been the animatronics giving into their long repressed desires.

Desires to have you.

Desires to hold you.

Desires to keep you.

And you were happy to be kept.

#big juicy #happy birth #sun x reader #moon x reader #sun x reader x moon #not osha approved #please don't like or reblog this #thnx

and don‘t decide that you won‘t ever contribute to a bigger project that touches people yet !!!!!! YOU‘RE SO YOUNG you‘ve got the whole world waiting for you and you‘re ALREADY so good at art though. your art is already touching people, no reason why that shouldn‘t work if you should ever work with others on a bigger project!!! GET OUT THEREEE i mean also take your time but IF YOU WANT THAT ABSOLUTELY SHOOT YOUR SHOT KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR OPPORTUNITIES i‘d personally love to see your work in something bigger :D nothing‘s set in stone <3 <3 <3 !!!

aww thank you so much anon! idk who you are but youre so kind to me... thats so nice!

about the whole future thing... i know i have a lot of time but i think because of some stuff coming up soon (when i leave school) im stressed about the future and my decisions in it entirely. idk what im gonna do if i need to go to the military lol like what job to take... i havent started driving and i dont understand shit about all the other stuff thats attached with going to the military im just stressed in general. i dont wanna end up staying in my parents house forever ig.

but i have a lot of time and i know that even if my connection with my friends fade away when they get recruited (which is... also something that could happen... oh god i dunno how to make irl friends) i still have my family, and probably the online world too. if i open commissions im pretty sure id get some work, but i dont think i could do that too much cuz i hate drawing things i dont wanna draw.

but, again, who knows what will happen. ill be fine haha, especially if there are people like you who care enough to write messages like these. most of my online friends are from twt so its always nice to see a tumblr fan <3 thank you anon.

(im realizing how depressed this is all making me sound like i promise its just my school hammering in the importance of the military signs up like i dont even know what part of the mess ill be in most of the time theyre teaching shit that doesnt concern me. im okay, im not dying!!)

now to actually talk about my favorite character! woohoo! happy topic change!

for the two people who read this and the one thats actually gonna read till the end, im putting a cut so this isnt annoying on ur dash (note to anon: this post is so so fucking long i know u prob asked me my fav character to cheer me up but dont force urself to read this whole thing just to be polite lmaooo but id appreciate it if anyone did cuz holy shit)

something that ive realized a while back is that usually when it comes to favorite characters of media, i have a type.

when i made this the character i had in mind where souda (danganronpa), aiura (saiki k) and teru (mp100).

after making the tweet i also thought of denji (csm) who fits right in, and also bakugou (mha) who doesnt, but he looks like half of the characters i did mention lol.

i think the whole social but nice thing came to because of all those shows and stories where the popular kid in school is the mean bully.. maybe i dislike this trope cuz i havent personally experienced any kind of bullying in my school, even as an observer so i cant relate to the experience of having this type of antagonist. the worst it ever got for me was when in fifth grade a girl made fun of me for crying and no one laughed. (shes still in my class over six years later and shes really nice not ufhduh were not friends but were friendly and i dont hold a grudge). maybe its just cuz im wholesome so i dislike any type of negative character. maybe.

that might sound stupid cuz i said i like bakugou, who i used to think of constantly, like for the entirety of 2021 he was in my mind it was annoying. but idk man not all my favs fit into this category ((shinguuji, saihara, yuuko, tweek (who also looks like them! what the fuck!) yuudai from sakana (why are they all blond?!? and men. more female characters what the fuck) barf bag (yes im an object show fan good morning)))

anyways. i like the popular but nice trope is what im saying. why are they all simps? i dont know honestly only one of the characters that i mentioned at the start is simping for someone i ship them with (terumob) (but the reason i even like teru in the first place might be cuz i saw terumob art, thought it was cute, and decided to search more art. i do that with a lot of characters when i dont watch the show (from the original list ive watched all of saiki k, watched playthroughs of the first 2 dr games, watched like a season of mp100 years ago and watched like 2 seasons of mha even before that. i get my filling of plot and character from meme videos, fanart, and fanfics. i understand enough.) and i get hooked on the ship (more examples include akiangel, kiribaku and the two gay boys from evangelion. a lot of homo happening. also whatever the fic version of this is but with denji and yoshida).

about the simping and the bakugou being mean-- i accept my character's flaws!!! i dont erase them!!! bakugou is an asshole and thats why i wanna see him get punished and learn from his mistakes, even if its a little hard! a great fic where this happens (but isnt the main storyline) is quirk: knife! which is probably my favorite non ship heavy fic, check it out!

my fav characters have flaws but just like how you need to embrace flaws in the people you love, whether that means helping them get better or accepting them, i embrace these flaws cuz it makes them who they are! souda, denji and auira wouldnt be themselves if they werent pushing the lines with their crushes and idk what the fuck bakugou would be if he wasnt what he was.

alright lets actually start talking about my favorite character now.

so, right now, my favorite character of all time is-- ding ding ding-- kazuichi souda! who i already mentioned.

look at him! idk if the one and a half people who are reading this know him, but if u know denji, who is a more popular character atm, then imagine that but more wimpy.

the first time i encountered this character i was watching game grump's playthrough of the second game. i watched their first and enjoyed it but didnt really join the fandom. i didnt know anything about the second so i was going in blind like arin and dan, so theres a chance that whatever i thought about the characters was biased and connected to how they feel.

at first i really liked his design. a lot of the characters have small and complicated details but souda is probably the most simple design, not including hinata, but unlike him souda has a lot of bright colors that draw the eye in! i dont particularly prefer designs with sharp teeth but i think its a pretty nice quirk, since its another part of him that makes him look intimidating. theres a headcanon that he filed themselves but i honestly think he wouldnt do that, and prefer the headcanon that its genetic, even if it makes less sense. but danganronpa, and their designs, dont make sense. i think these little strange quirks are better when they arent thoughtout or have reason. he has sharp teeth becuz. just cuz.

if u dont know what happens in the game im just gonna say that the plot doesnt really matter, cuz really the only growth souda experiences is with his relationship to hinata (the main character) and his trust to his survivor friends that makes him stronger and convinces him to leave the virtual reality. im not gonna be talking about the plot in detail. i also havent watched the anime so im not gonna get into whatever he does there. i do know that he makes some cute faces in it, which is pretty awesome.

but, yeah, besides his design, at the start i truthfully didnt really like him lmaooo he was kind of stalkerish towards sonia (ill prob get into their relationship later), he is also a wimp but honestly... i get it hes stuck in a killing game i would be scared of anything too. i feel like of all of the cast, from all the games, souda is probably one of the best depictions of an actual teenager that might exist. of course he has his obnoxious moments, but in a way that a dumb teenager would have. i dont know when i started liking him, maybe after discovering soudam? hmm.

kazuichi is the ultimate mechanic, which is one of the talents in the game that actually gets used? he makes the communicators in chap 3 and fixes the elevator in chap 4. besides that, he is also important to the second chapter since he helped tie up komaeda and he also brought hinata to the diner, though that has nothing to do with his talent.

he learned to be a great mechanic from working at his dad's repair shop or garage or whatever its called. its mentioned that their family is pretty poor, and i think the concept of a character being at one point or another un-wealthy pretty interesting (did that come strange? sorry). he worked to help get their family money he is a good boy, he mentions being better than his dad too. he doesnt look like the typical mechanic, except from the greasy hair and jumpsuit (im talking specifically about his color scheme) and thats another one of those quirks that make no sense but i just like haha

speaking of his parents, lets talk about a popular headcanon that fans have of souda's dad (before we start i wanna state that my opinion on this topic and the topic of souda relationship towards sonia and his trust issues were all stem from an analysis video of him on youtube, if u know u know, so if i want someone more competent talking about it go there, but if u dont care enough to research it or ure only reading because u like me and wanna hear me talk about something i care about dw im gonna go into detail about these anyways

the hc is that souda's dad physically abuses him. i wanna talk about why dont agree (if u wanna skip this part ill put *** when it ends so just go there <3). this hc stems from a story he tells hinata in one of the free time events where he didnt go to his previous school trips because he wanted to save money for his family, even though he really wanted to go, and he says something along the lines of how his dad "beat the crap outta him" when he didnt go.

do i think his dad hit him? probably. i dont really know how common this type of discipline is in japan, or in places with more un-wealthy people so this might be normal to them. does that make that okay? obviously not. but if the only example we get for him hitting souda is after souda does something good for the family in his own expense, it wont make sense for his father to be mad about it, right? i think he was upset his son had to give up his happiness for them, even if it was to save money. the analysis vid said it might be souda just using more dramatized words for it. He was hesitant to tell hinata that he was picked on at school, i dont think hed just admit to being abused so casually. i think his dad might have smacked him from time to time when he was younger but probably stopped the more souda grew up. if his dad really hated him he wouldnt beat him after doing something that would benefit the dad, is what im saying.

also i think that the way souda acts doesnt reflect someone who would be regularly abused... its not like im an expert, but if we for example look at tsumiki, who was canonically abused and bullied regularly, we can see a great difference. yes, souda tends to be caught off guard or scared of stuff, but usually its less of other people and more about the situation around him. he was scared of monokuma and the monobeasts and the morning after the killing gama announcement. he's also generally not that apologist about his stupid behavior... for example he doesnt feel remorse for tying up komaeda, and even threatens to tie up kuzuryuu too. i also think he said something about wanting to punch one of the other guys? this might be cuz he tends to blurt out his thoughts stupidly and doesnt know how to hold his tongue (something that, if he was abused, would probably get him in trouble) but he never recoils from what he said. he whines about being judged, like after letting slip that he was thinking of sonia in a creepy way, but he never goes back and is afraid that someone might punish him or hurt him. like how tsumiki apologizes for the smallest thing at claims that she'll take any punishment.

it might also be because i generally dont like hcing characters with abusive parents haha. i know for a lot of characters its a part of what makes them who they are, but if thats not the case i feel like its always to excuse the character from some frowned upon trait they have.

its a bit difficult to explain so ill take an example from a different character from a different show. todoroki from mha was abused as a child, and its a part of what makes him him, and its a big part of his character, even if hes not in that situation anymore. i wont deny it. now, theres a hc that some people like to believe about bakugou's parents, specifically his mom, being abusive. this isnt canon. first of all everyone is entitled to hc what they want but a lot of the time i feel this is a way to explain his asshole behavior (also i just love mitsuki). i dont like excusing his fucked up actions and blaming his parents. i think that him being an asshole from the ideals that he himself made is kind of what made him interesting. he believes in what he learned from his own experiences that he and only he had. his stupid child thinking made him the gross person he is, and thats way more interesting than blaming his parents' behavior, like we can do with reason in todoroki's case. todoroki acts antagonistic at the start of the show because of the pressure his dad put on him.

now going back to souda, by making his dad abusive a lot of people linked that to him being a creep towards sonia. while i do see how his parents and their expectations might be a motivator, i prefer to blame souda himself for his wrong actions. i dont want to excuse his actions like that. its more interesting to see him grow from the ideals and reasonings he made himself.

***

now let's talk about his relationship with hinata! woo!

canonically, hinata is the person souda is closes to in the game, even though most of the time hinata is just tolerating his stupid behavior. except in his free time events maybe. their relationship is probably the biggest character development souda gets.

lets talk about his past a little more.

souda tells hinata that he used to be picked on for looking like a nerd. he had black hair (but i hc it more like dark brown, because reminder this is a post gushing about my fav character first and an canalization second), brown eyes (in hc world dull pale brown cuz a lot of the char's eyes are dull and pale colored) and glasses (hc: thin and rectangle shaped). he's not really a nerd... except that he's probably good at math and that type of things, since he builds machines and all. if i remember correctly, he says his bullied got away with what they did because he tends to be naive and trusts too easily. he was also used by his best friend that cheated off of his test, blamed souda for it (which he didnt really mind, showcasing how much not a nerd he is if he doesnt care about his studying and tests like that) and then kinda ghosted after feeling bad. but at the time souda was really heartbroken and felt betrayed, this whole situation gave him trust issues because that his naive heart cant tell when someone really wants to be his friend or if they'll drop him when they dont need him anymore.

souda and hinata start off being friends because souda didnt like any of the other guys enough (fair enough, hinata is the most normal one lol) and he tolerated him enough to go to the diner on the second island to spy on the girls with him. at the time kuzuryuu was still an asshole to everyone, but the two do get friendlier after the second trial (survivor boys bff agenda. i did say "bff coded" didnt i?)

souda tells hinata that after his ex best friend left him, he kinda went through something-- he dyed his hair, put in contacts, and pierced his ears (which i like to think was really scare to him) (and i assume this is when he started to wear bright colors, but i like to think he was always a fan of them (aiura and teru kinnie)) to make himself more intimidating (like i said in the list! remember the list?!) so that he wont be picked on. i assume the bullying he experienced was more emotional that physical, and he was probably called names for his nerdy appearance and was made to do tasks for toxic friends and somethings like that. tsumiki was physically bullied and she has bandages all over her design while souda rolls up all his sleeves and has his collar bone exposed while there is no marks on him. maybe he's have some scars from beginner's mechanical mistakes but thats hc territory.

anyways, because of his appearance change, he got some attention from flirtations girls and said that it had intimidated him. i imagine that while he was in his nerd looking mode, he didnt get much attention from the other sex so when they only started approaching him with the assumption he's some punk badass, that was probably a bit overwhelming for him and thats why he has a strained relationship with the female sex. he does kind of sexualize the girls, specifically in the second chapter, but honestly its not really that bad. it kind of even feels a little forced, like he said nanami had "huge jugs" and wonders if this "is what moe gap is" or something like that but he doesnt even say anything about wanting her lmao. the only girl he really shows any interest is sonia, and he mostly gushes about her beauty, instead of her body. not that thats really any better ofc.

he does get along with some of the girls or at least acts normal and not incel-y towards them, like whenever he's angry at saionji, when he felt awkward next to tsumiki or when he made minimaru for owari (though he did mainly do that to impress sonia). when alter ego enoshima suggest putting him between her boobs or whatever batshit crap she said he just yelled he's get crushed, so like. good for him for not being toooo bad. so yeah i do think there are reasons why souda's best friend woudlnt be a girl (for now, at least) and thats why it really is hinata.

and while hinata has other friends, his and souda's connection is special <3 some examples: he is friends with nanami, but they dont really get each other, or at least hinata doesn't feel too connected at her at times cuz shes like a robot and doesnt really get emotions to the full extent. canonically, his and komaeda's relationship is just not... bros, yknow? whatever it is its not "bros". he and souda are bros. i know that he and kuzuryuu consider each other brothers but i feel like while the friendship they have is great, hinata would be more comfortable just letting loose and being stupid with souda. they could connect by being stupid together and distracting one another from the bad in the world by being fun. cuz souda can be fun when he isnt stressed.

but since souda is an emotional character (i dunno if i mentioned this, if u didnt know souda beforehand hes emotional as shit and cries constantly, my beloved) they can get close the two of them emotionally and are empathetic enough to be able to comfort each other. that is, when souda trusts his enough to do that.

thats right. as much as id like to say souda is loyal like a dog, he doesnt really show that in the game lol. because of his experience with his ex friend, souda has trust issues, which i think i already touched upon (idk this is so fucking long im tryna go thru this one topic at a time but good god) and these issues come up in his and hinata's relationship, mainly chap 4. to put it simply cuz honestly the plot doesnt really matter in this context: souda suspects hinata to be a traitor, and because in chap 4 the characters are not allowed to eat, this probably makes him more stressed and causes him to think even more rationally. after the chap is over, in souda's last free time event, he invites hinata to the beach and order him to punch himself.

his actions are really silly here, but basically: hinata shows in souda trust, which makes souda feel like a bad friend, because he couldnt bring himself to trust hinata even though hinata didnt do anything wrong. he feels that their friendship is unfair and that he's the cause of this problem. so i guess he knows he'll get into an argument or a fight because of it, or maybe he wants to give hinata a reason to not trust him so he bring hinata to the beach so they could fist fight. but souda doesnt like to harm people cuz soda is a good boy tm so he asks hinata to do the work for him (which he does not do lol. they communicate and talk like normal friends). this is where souda tells hinata about his past being bullied, after in the last free time event hinata said he could see souda hanging out with the cool kids, so this is where he confides that hes not a cool kid. anyways souda comes to the conclusion that hes more scared of being a bad friend and a coward because of his trust issued that actually being betrayed, and tells hinata that he'll trust him. hooray!

in my mind they are suchhhh good friends. i dont mind shipping souda with a lot of the characters, but it think their friendship is the most important to me. i love them!

now lets get into his relationship with sonia!

i do, in fact, think that his crush on her is fake. i do think he believes in it. but he does not realize that the created a version of her brought on by her general politeness, her status as a princess and her beauty, in his mind that every day strays farther away from the real sonia. he denies her liking of the occult and other scary stuff that turns him off and he acts shocked when she admits to being a virgin (yikes. at least he doesnt really shame her. i think it just ruins his image of her-- again, yikes-- but he ignores it mostly. like he ignores her, the real her, most of the times)

i dont know why he needs a romantic relationship specifically so desperately, but i can think of why he wants that puppy love admiration that he has for her. she, or at least the way he makes her in his mind, is wildly out of her league. sure he wants a girlfriend, but deep down he knows hell never get her. thats why when she turns him down again and again he only gets hurt for like a minute. she even suggests she would rather he be the blackened in the 4th trial and he gets over it pretty quickly. this is the reason he wants to like someone out of his reach so much-- because he cant get hurt from her. he isnt being betrayed or heartbroken like his ex best friend did to him (yes this is about the trust issues again) because he never expected to be with her in the first place. by expecting failure by chasing a girl that is so so out of his league (a pretty perfect princess) he knows what he gets when hes turned down. to him, this is better than actually making an effort with someone he is genuinely attached to because in that case he might actually get his feelings hurt. we see this with his relationship with hinata, though it isnt in a romantic sense. sadly, after they become close friends, he still chases after sonia, but that might be because the player isnt guaranteed to play all of souda's free time events.

this stuff probably will take time for souda to understand. ofc this doesnt really justify his actions and creepy behavior towards her... i like to think that at some point (i constantly forget that dr is a game about killing each other and the apocalypse, but ig this can take place in here too since they both survive) he understands where his problem stem from, maybe with a conversation with hinata or kuzuryuu and he learns and he asks forgiveness from sonia and changes his behavior. the long and hard way!!! my boy did something stupid and he has to make up for it!!!! he will take responsibility because thats what good character writing is!!

itll probably be difficult to come to terms that the girl in his mind, that i do believe he actually fell in love with, is not real. he will cope <3

briefly i'd like to mention souda's and kuzuryuu's relationship i think they are bffs #2 honestly i feel that the both of them plus hinata could be the best trio they are such wholesome guys from all corners of the bro spectrum let the be friends<333 idk maybe even add owari. owari and souda sibling energy <3 this is just hc territory at this point. mioda and souda sibling energy!!!!! for more kuzuryuu and souda friendship read the fic Fuyuhiko and Kazuichi's Guide to Despair Disease: A How-To Take Care of Your Friends(?) Without Spiraling Out Of Control Story. still a wip.

hmmm that was a lot. lets talk about some hcs cuz believe it or not i dont just think of his as what he is canonically, but also what he could be!

ok lets talk about appearances (still canon atm:) he is short-- one of the shortest guys in the cast cuz fuyuhiko and teruteru dont count (thats a plus) and he is, sadly, pretty ripped. it makes since cuz he prob carries heavy stuff and moves his arms a lot for his talent of being a mechanic but when a (male) character is TOO ripped and not for a good reason (for example theres a good reason why nidai or oowada are physically strong cuz of their talents, and some characters are just himbos that deserve it like momota) i just look at them like :|. but it think souda deserves some strong arms <3 he is a cuddler. he would. i just dont think he's impressively ripped. like i think he could sprint fast, but not for long, and that girls wouldnt flawk him for his arms (if they already knew who he was) cuz all in all he is still a wimp loser and he will stay as such, please and thank you.

im a big fan of his narrow eyes. theyre just. dont make sense on him i love it. just like the sharp teeth, he is blessed with looking the opposite of his personality.

now lets talk about post canon appearances! in the world of canon, where the most tragic event in history happens and they were a part of the despair refinements and they live the neo world program (i always forget they dont live in my lil modern day normal aus, ugh), i think he would wake up still looking like how he did in his depair era. idk how long theyre like that but this is my personal hc: hair that reaches his chest, some ugly dulled down pink still sticking to the tips of his messy hair, no hat </3 but his hair is long enough that he doesnt have that hedgehog thing going on </3, no contacts, no glasses, probably scars over his arms and one over the side of his lips like that rio penguin from madagascar (also curse that show for making my tiny stupid child brain think there are penguins in the desert. at least there are such a thing as beach penguins... hmm). i think he would cut his hair to be shorter that it is in canon, a bit longer than hajime's and would resemble saihara's except brown, parted and no ahoge. he wold be dispensation by the length. he would also wear a cap (the normal way) and with his natural colors back, he would look very snuggble :)) he would hug everyone he would be the comfort giver at least to the survivors (this is the part where u realize how insame i am for him lol)

in a world where the end of it didnt happen, i feel like he would feel kind lonely for a while after school, and wouldnt care enough to wear contacts and would go back to glasses, and he wouldnt dye his hair (i just really like his naturality okay i know i said i liked him at first for his colors but this is character growth! he is learning that he doesnt need to be intimidating to get friends!!!) his hair would be a little longer than canon but not by much. i just have this au where he works in an office and there he meets kamukura (who, personality wise is just hinata but depressed) and they become bffs dont at me, and this is how he looks in that au, wearing a button down without the tie and the sleeves rolled up. i do think hed wear obnoxious colors in his free time tho <3

maybe i should get into ships a little? mostly i shipped him with tanaka because i love me some rivals to lovers that isnt angst filled and is mostly just petty. theys either be salty towards each other or tanaka would be very intense in his friendship and souda would be tsundere-ish, not the obnoxious type tho. imagine how denji acts towards yoshida. (denji and souda are actually really alike. before i knew anything about csm my twt mutual told me id prob like denji cuz i like souda and.. well he was right)

but recently i dont really focus on shipping souda with anyone as much as i focus on his friendship with hinata (am i the only one who watched gg compilations and put their faces behind the silly conversations? like i imagine their sprites laughing while the video plays. is that weird? them and also saihara&momota. cuz theyre the same relationship!!! tactful mc and their friendly dumb bro! they!!!). also if u recall i made that drawing of souda with a bunch of ships so its not like loyal lol.

also why are souda and tanaka together constantly in the anime... i think its the end song where theres a slide show of all the characters in class in places like a picnic and the beach and stuff and the two of them are almost together. theyre at the very least friends. that dynamic where they both look intimidating but theyre both so fucking stupid. frienemies. <333 they are so <333 theyd be friedns at least!!! thank you for the anime for realizing that.

i also like to imagine that he and tsumiki would be friends <3 they were both bullied, they both cry a lot and arent really taken seriosuly, at least when it comes to their emotions. i think theyd hug and cry together and be friends :) also as couple they could be very cute.

i dont really know what more to say... i think this is it! i dont know what about kazuichi souda makes me love him so much. he is flawed but not to the point of being unlikable. he is unique but can easily be related to! i care about him so much... the amount of aus i come up and put him in... i dont post so much about him, but know he is my love. ofc i dont have romantic feelings for him some ppl just thirst over their favs i wanna preface that aint the case. not cuz of his age (im close to him in age) but cuz i just... dont feel and romantic or thristy feelings towards anyone so istg if anyone says something stupid to me about that.

thats all! i think this is the longest post ive ever made? when i got this ask last night i thought id write about all those characters i mentioned at the start but then when i went to bed i thought about my answer and realized i have a lot to say lol.

to the one person who actually read until the end, if u even exist (who knows myabe this was for nothing, i still had fun), you're insane. and i hope u have a great rest of ur day. if u didnt know who souda was before this... well u certainly do now (also why did u read this?) sometimes i just gotta rant about something i adore haha. its been a while since i went all out cuz me and my irl dont watch the same shows. i hope i made whoever read this love souda! at least a little!

this post is 5787 words long... im not rereading this

#this post is an investment #kazuichi souda #character analysis #also this is not proofread so expect a bunch of typos haha

Hello, I've been a follower since I read your quodo fics and I just wanna say that I love your takes on morals vs. fiction. I got into beetle babes bc of you and I've never understood the war. kids like to imagine dating characters, and I know when I was young I wanted to kiss gerard way on the mouth despite him being 20+ years older than me. I guess I just want to know your opinion on why this supposed moral crusade is happening if you have an a take. If not, I love your writing and I hope you keep at it thanks!

I desperately wish I could give a concise, educated answer to this question. But I just don't have that skillset and I've only flitted into the research part of this social/cultural phenomenon. So I don't have anything solid at my fingertips to present.

I feel like kids today have grown up with the internet parenting them a lot like how we grew up with TV parenting us.

And so when they branch out into the internet as a whole and find things that are not completely wholesome/kid friendly....

The difference is that when we saw adult TV that stressed us out as kids we didn't have anyone to scream at about it. Whereas the internet is made of people, so there are a lot of people they can scream at.

That's just the foundation of the problem though.

I'm honestly not sure where the cry for censorship came from though?

The best theory I've heard is that they've got a desire to protect, make the world a better place, etc. But the only model they have to go on is Conservative America. So their idea of protecting people from the 'bad ideas' is to silence them in the same way. Banning books, making mentioning the things illegal, etc.

This is assuming that, for the most part, the anti... 'movement' is rooted in good intention.

The problem is that they're stupid. They weren’t around for the times where exactly what they say they want already happened. The incidences that spawned the creation of AO3 to begin with.

Additionally they haven't bothered to think through all the implications. Who do they think would regulate this, and how? What's to stop the people regulating it from going after them and their brand of 'wrongthink' after they're done with us?

But I feel like maybe I'm attributing way more to this than it warrants.

Most of my interactions with antis suggest that it's just a stupid shipping war thing. The kind of ships they rail against are ones that are generally based in taboo, sure. But the ones they like are usually in direct opposition to the ones they're complaining about. And in the example of Beetlebabes, the opposing ship is Beetlejuice/The Maitlands or selfshippers. Both of which are equally problematic in different ways, so antibeetlebabes who ship either of those are just hypocrits.

Someone in one of the posts I've reblogged said something like 'it's not that they're opposed to seeing explicit stuff. They just don't want to see the stuff they don't like.' And that seems very true.

There are a million other things that I could point out as potential factors, I'm sure. As with any cultural shift, it's brought about by a bunch of tiny factors instead of a couple big ones.

Maybe I'll be compelled to make a full write up of everything I think led to antis being a thing one of these days.

But for now I'll just leave this here.

Thanks for the ask! Glad you like my writing

I’m just getting to the climax of Animorphs Book 1, so let me share some initial reactions I’ve had from the end of the construction site scene through now. I’ll post “some time to think” reactions when I’ve finished the book. Book 2 is already waiting for me at the library; the next may take longer because I’ll have to buy it.

Animorphs be like: today is a lovely day, and conservation of matter does not exist. We're just dropping the neutered thing like no big deal, all right then.

(I had a huge emotional reaction to Jake in dog morph, and it was an immediate reaction, but that’ll be in the delayed reactions post because figuring out how to explain my reaction is more complicated and I want to keep this post relatively light.)

Oh, thank goodness Marco picked up on Tom being a Controller. It’s I guess in character that Jake would be very reluctant to suspect his beloved big brother, but if I got smacked on the head with any more unmissable hints…

2-3 minutes is actually a really long amount of time to spend shifting shape. I thought there might have been an initial morph at the construction site, but if it takes multiple minutes for them to shift right now they would have gotten slaughtered. So good thing they didn’t.

“It’s terrible when birds have to be locked up in cages.”

I’m just… very into the whole “let’s explore the emotional experience of being different animals.” Love it.

…Tobias ends up getting stuck in hawk form, doesn’t he?

Cuuuuuuult.

Ok, seriously though. (The Sharing.) Tiered membership. A show of positive fun/friendly stuff for new people. Active recruitment. People losing their previous interests/having major personality changes. Talking about it in "life changing" terms. Cryptic statements that hint at some knowledge being held by the in group that isn’t shared to newcomers right away. Seeming normal and fine and wholesome on the surface. Actually, presenting itself as better than normal, actively positive. Getting invited by normal people that you know personally. I’m not sure Applegate is intentionally making a “here’s how actual cults work in the real world, just a heads up” thing but it sure functions that way.

Jake. Are you out of your mind. Do you not think your brother would recognize the family dog?

Well. I guess one of the fun things about having a group of kids save the world is you don’t need any justification for them making incredibly bad decisions, other than them being kids. And incredibly bad decisions do make for entertaining stories.

Ok, he does realize he has to keep out of Tom’s line of sight. Good, I guess? Yeerks do know about morphing technology after all; they don’t think any Andalites are alive on the planet, so they’re not suspecting it, but still.

Ah. So the cover morph is a lizard, not a snake. I wasn’t sure.

Having to set down the book while lizard!Jake was pinned down by his tail was excruciating. I mean, I know how he’s going to get out, but still.

The spider is still alive?????? I take it back, the cover illustration expresses perfectly how this story is going to be.

Yeurgh aaaaaa blech

Jake is having a horrible, no good, very bad day.

…is there any remotely plausible reason there would be a secret underground room hidden in the back of a broom closet in a school? Eh, I guess this is what “suspension of disbelief” is for.

Why don’t stories for adults ever involve turning into lizards and swallowing spiders whole?

(While they’re in The Gardens getting gorilla DNA for Marco and someone who actually works there comes up) how the heck do these kids survive dozens of books without getting caught?

So far there have been three falls and all of them have been Jake.

Omfg these idiot kids are just running into animals’ cages are they nuts?

Of course it’s a frikkin’ tiger.

Ahem. Please do not break into animal cages at a zoo or similar. I don’t care that much about protecting you from the consequences of your own bad decisions, you get to make your own risk assessment in regards to your own personal safety, but I do care about protecting the zoo and the big cats or what have you from the consequences of your bad decisions.

Anyways! It's a book! I'm reading it! So far I haven't had a single "yes I remember reading this before" but I honestly don't know if that's because I didn't read this book or just because it was sufficiently far in the past that I don't remember anything. More thoughts later!

#animorphs read through #animorphs book 1 #long post #think I'm going to keep these concentrated rather than spreading them out #so that my blog doesn't become unreadable #for people not interested in the readthrough #that really should be one word shouldn't it #oh well #too late now

Monday and his team taking care of BB's daughter, Sunday insisted that they can take care of her, so BB accept it, even if he was still a little unsure.

The moment she steps inside the house Monday gives her a few rules, like she can't get anything dirty unless she wants to clean it up, she cant break stuff, no touching the oven, normal rules for a kid I guess.

Then he takes her to solve puzzles with her, those with like 50 pieces, all while he creates a kid friendly case so he can teach her how to solve them lol.

Monday would tell her that if she is good he may take her into his team when she grows older.

Tuesday would make her cute hairstyles while she talks about her day or anything she wants, he even paints her nails, and make pretty designs on them.

Wednesday gossips with her about his past "boyfriends/girlfirends" all while leaving the nfsw stuff out, and she gets lost of hugs/kisses on her cheeks.

Probably makes some magic tricks to impress her.

Thursday and Friday watch anime with her, some kids ones like Yo-kai Watch or Mob even if is not for kids tho, while eating snacks, they would try to convince her to make a cute cosplay with her.

Saturday takes her to make all kind of dumb pranks to the others, teaches her how to mimic so they can communicate and make fun of others with it.

Tries to make her laugh a lot, he wants to be the favorite, what can I say he likes the attention.

Sunday makes dinner for her with her, just a calm moment after that long day, he puts calm music and tells her about the times he used to act at the theaters.

Also tells her how sweet and kind his dad is with everyone.

When BB is back she is asleep with Friday on the couch.

She could either hate these guys or love them, I hope she likes them bc if she doesn't poor Sunday would be so heartbroken.

I found this idea so cute and fluffy, just wholesome stuff with the boys.

The serotonin in this post is so damn high I can just imagine BB going in full parent mode to Monday being like “melody is allergic to peanuts, she doesn’t like sour candy and she can’t go to bed without the music box in her room being cranked so make sure..” and he just goes on a rant. He is so worried but he trusts them dearly so he leaves

Melody loves little games and puzzles so she would absolutely love doing a puzzle and playing with Monday now having a goal of joining his group when she gets older

Tuesday definitely has to deal with her make up skills as well since he is dolling her up as well and will absolutely try to have tea parties and play dates with him

Melody will totally see Wednesday as a prince, he just has to be in her eyes! She will make him a paper crown and he has to wear it or she will hold her breath until he does. She will definitely laugh and giggle when he drowns her in affection.

Watching anime and Cosplaying with Thursday and Friday makes her far too happy to the point where she gushes about it all the time. She talks about her favorite characters and the coolest scenes!

Saturday would be super fun to melody but he would definitely get her in trouble with BB when she goes pulling those pranks on him or around the house. That being said she does love laughing with him

When that long day starts to dwindle she is sleepily eating and trying to listen to Sunday but she’s bobbing her head trying not to fall asleep.

When BB comes back and sees melody asleep he can’t help but smile, he was worried for absolutely nothing. What surprises him is how often melody asks to see the group after all that

Hawks x Reader

This is very self indulgent tbh. Mostly gender neutral but does mention make up. Also the reader has mega family trauma cuz same.

Warnings: mentions of food, alcohol, reader is drunk but keigo is vv respectful & doesn't try anything, reader doesn't talk to their family, past family abuse, reader is kinda mean to him at first

I wrote this at like 4am and my phone is wonky and keeps autocorrecting "you" to "he" for no reason but i did like one quick pass through before posting so hopefully it's good enough, this is probably one of the first times I've actually published my fanfiction so hopefully it ain't shit,

----------------------------------

For the last couple months you've been teasing him. Practically any other girl in your position would swoon in your position. But where's the fun in letting him get what he wants so quick?

Pro Hero Hawks, had seemingly everyone wrapped around his finger. With eyes pierced in deep gold and, blazing, ruby red wings, it's hard for anyone to not be attracted to him.

You stood in the back corner of a "special hero party," trying to discern if you should sneak out and do anything more interesting than standing with a bunch of other heros.

"Hello there, beautiful." A thick and sweet voice called as you turned your head to them. "Looking lonely all alone back here, let me join?" Hawks, the number two hero was offering to stand with you. Staying it is I suppose.

"I admire your work, you're really dedicated kid. I like watching your stuff." He says taking a slow sip of his drink.

"You? You watch me?" The disbelief of it rung through in sarcasm. How were you to expect someone like him watched your work. You continued sipping from your drink, even if it was a boring party there was free fancy alcohol and that's all a hero could ever need.

"I wanna see more of you, and not just on the screen or anything. I want to get to know you, you know, maybe take you out a bit, hottie." He uses his middle finger to gently lift your chin up.

"And why do you think I'd immediately just accept some date from a guy I've never even talked to?" You dryly laugh out taking another sip.

"C'mon pretty thing, you know me. Your friendly neighborhood Hawks. The hottest, and most loved person you'll ever meet."

"Ah that's what you are, the hot, amazing, charming, hero to any and all." You scoffed

"The one and only."

You spent the rest of the night either playing hard to get, or annoyed at him. You couldn't exactly tell.

This carried on for months, every event you attended, he was right there on your heels like an abandoned, clingy puppy. He's even started patrolling with you.

"Say when are you gonna quit and just accept a date dollie?" He charmed up behind you.

"I'm at work, Hawks." Your boots cracked on the wet pavement as the last bits of rain desperately clung to the air.

"Why do you play so hard to get?" He questioned in a more serious tone. He was genuinely curious about you. "Most people would kill to have me begging for them, let alone after giving me to cold shoulder so many times." You could hear the upturn in his lips as he spoke.

"Why do you happen to find me the one person worth going for?" You retorted back.

"You interest me. There's very few people I'm genuinely curious about, but one of them's you, kid." He looked up into your eyes from the street. Something you'd never thought you'd see in Hawks' eyes was sincerity over such a topic. He genuinely wanted to know you.

".........Let's just say letting people in isn't my forte." You say quickly but with a slight hint of pain. You begin to walk off again and he doesn't question. He doesn't push you to tell him why. But you could see the way he processes your words on his face.

A bar, on a Thursday night, alone. How pathetic of you. Luckily you had no work tomorrow, a big mission the week before let them cut a couple weekends longer. As you downed your refill you questioned how many you've had.

"How long have I been here?" You whispered slightly to yourself before bringing it to your lips.

The warm rush reflow through your body as you let yourself fall to it. The bartender looked at you from the corner of his eye.

"I'm cutting you off for the night." He looks earnestly at you.

"Now that's not very nice there." You laugh back at him.

You pull out your phone and attempt to call some friends but lucky enough for you, you chose a night they were all at work to recklessly get drunk in the middle of the city. The only other contact you could think of was Hawks.

There's no way he'll pick up. He's gotta be busy. I could find literally anyone else to do it. You mutter in your brain as you go into his contact and start a call.

It rings twice before his voice calls out to you. "Hey this is hawks. ... (Y/h/n), are you there?"

Okay act cool and sober. "Heeeeyyy bird." Shit.

You could practically feel his shit eating grin across the phone. "You in need of a hero babe?"

"Can you please pick me up?" A whine took over your voice. You hated being drunk in front of people like him. That soft affectionate side seems to burst its way out when the alcohol takes control.

"Tell me where you are birdie." He said as you heard some ruffling. "(Bar name idk)." You rough out tiredly.

"Be right there angel." He called before hanging up.

You put the phone down on the counter and groaned. Why him? You try so hard to make sure you don't fall for people. They always end up like the last. You feel like they stop caring once they really meet you. Like they don't want the cake after the first bite.

Used, alone, and forgotten. It's a stabbing feeling that your used to. A feeling of burning heaviness in your stomach.

You sit slumped down onto the bar contemplating your feelings for the winged hero for awhile. Why can't emotions just be controlled?

"Hey-o!" You heard a voice from behind you break through the thoughts corrupting your mind. Hawks smiled and thanked the bartender before reaching his arms around you and helping you off the stool.

I didn't know he could be so gentle..

He walked you out the door and held your arms softly, but supportedly as he looked you in the face. "I'm gonna fly us okay? Don't wriggle to much." With that he picks you up and starts beating his wings.

"Hawks?" You call slurred and quiet.

"Yeah, kid?" He glances down at you with a light smile.

"What's your real name?"

"Well why would I tell you that when you refuse to tell me yours so often?" He chuckled.

"(Y/n) (y/l/n)"

"W..what?"

"My name. It's (Y/n) (y/l/n)." You replied back.

You could see the confusion of your open demeanor. But there was something else in his eyes. Something you couldn't put your finger on.

"Soooooooo....." you trailed off with a smile.

"Keigo Takami." He chortled at your ridiculous smile.

"That's a lot prettier than I thought it would be." You stared into his face. How could anyone not find him attractive. The perfect mix of facial hair, jawline, that dumb grin that was insanely attractive, those eyes that were the perfect gold.

"You're gorgeous, Keigo." You whisper more to yourself than him.

"And you apparently drank a lot more than I suspected." He tried to brush off but you could feel a bit more heat from his face.

"Here it is." He lands gingerly and places you down on the ground, wrapping his arm under your shoulder and holding onto the small of your back. "Let's get you in bed."

"Have you eaten today?" He calls after setting you on the couch and going to the kitchen to get you some water. You shake your head and he looks a little concerned but doesn't push it. He hasn't either so late take out it is.

"What do you want?" He looks to you above the old paper menu he has saved from a place not to far from here. "Cuddles." You pout looking through your phone.

"I meant for dinner (y/n)." He laughs at you. "Oooh that makes sense." You laugh too, "anything with noodles and shrimp, I reaaaaally like shrimp." You smile at him wholesomely as he looks at you with the same missing thing as earlier in his eyes.

He orders for the both of you then takes you to the bathroom and sits you on the counter with your bag. "Makeup remover?" He asked placing your bag on your lap. You pull out some individual wipes as he gentle pulls them from your fingers and moves the bag to the side.

He softly wipes at your face as you close your eyes and focus on the feeling of his hands. After wiping the makeup off he wipes down your face with water to make sure there's no remover left either.

"Beautiful. Now do you want to go watch something while we wait for the food?"

His eyes gleamed at you and it filled you with that feeling of admiration. He was being so considerate and kind. Nothing like you imagined. You were safe. Safe here with him by your side.

You placed a kiss to his cheek.

"(Y/nn)," he closed his eyes softly taking in the tingle of where your lips pressed. "You're drunk off your ass, baby. Lets get you fed and in bed, dear." You nod tiredly as he pulls you down from the counter.

You sit back down on his couch as he answers the door and takes the food. "Someone order shrimp?"

"Oooo!" You clap your hands rapidly and look to him excitedly. He giggles at you and hands you the food.

You sit and eat together. Talking about whatever comes to mind first and building on from wherever it wandered.

"So, what's your family like?" He asked innocently enough. "Eh." You brushed off. A subject you never liked was family.

"I get that." He tried to laugh but it seemed forced. "I was born with two parents and couldn't get a single one to even care about me." You laughed to him.

"Do you talk to them?" He looks like he wants your answer. Like he cares about what you say.

"I try not to. I cut them off when I was a teen, everyone blamed it on me being a dumb rebellious kid. No one ever tried to see what happened in those walls." You trailed off.

"Were you hurt?" He tilts his head as concern covers his features. "That's an understatement." You force a smile back at him and take a bite.

"I...I think I kinda understand what you feel in a way." You meet his eyes as they lazily traveled to the floor. His thoughts stiring from behind his pupils.

"No parent buddies?" You put out your hand for a fist bump. He laughs and fist bumps you, "Yeah, no parent buddies."

You lean a bit closer to him. "I'm sorry you were hurt. They didn't deserve the control they had over you." You went a bit more serious as you draw your eyes up to him.

"Im sorry for you too." He breathed out to you. "Now let's get you in bed." A smile took over as he moved your empty food package onto the table and picked you up.

"PUT ME DOWN KEIGO!" You laugh and softly hit your hands against him. He laughs with you then throws you onto the bed.

"Why am I on the bed?" You frown. "Why wouldn't you be?" He looks as he places your water on the night stand next to you.

"It's your bed."

"And I get to choose who sleeps in it."

He places a feather-light kiss on your temples then goes to the door.

"Keigo-" he turns, "cuddle me?"

"I'll clean up and be back here soon okay?" He smiles at you. "Okay"

After twenty minutes of struggling to keep yourself up you feel a weight press into the mattress, keeping some distance.

You roll up next to him and wrap yourself around him.

"Sweet dreams Keigo."

"Goodnight, (y/n)."

And there he was when you woke up. Right beside you. After awhile you got used to seeing his face when you woke up. Always being able to see the look in his eyes you tried so hard to put your finger on. The lovestruck stupid he was for you.

It’s Gaara Week! - just kidding, Gaara Week is in January - this is Gaara Weekly. So I heard the topic this time is:

“what Gaara would do together with Shinki if he had some time off”

now that’s just wholesome, how could I not at least *attempt to* provide some headcanons?

*side note: I have no idea how I ended up with this mess of a post but here you go*

So we know their hobbies: Gaara likes “battling” according to the second databook and by the time the third came around, he added “cultivating cacti” to the mix. Shinki likes both “gardening” and “embroidery” according to character trivia from Boruto. Makes sense that they would bond over tending to plants right? In fact, most would probably assume that Shinki adopted this hobby from his father. And while I do believe they get some rare father-son time tending to Gaara's cacti together - I don't know if that's what they would actually choose to do if they had a significant amount of free time.

If I was being realistic: They would probably spend their days off training.

_________________________ Yeah I hear you people in the back screaming “booo” - but this seems to be the most realistic scenario - to me at least. So let me explain:

His people and village always seem to be the priority for Gaara and Shinki is the future of Suna, not only as the Kazekage's heir but simply as part of the next generation who will take on leadership positions after the current decision-makers retire. There is not a single doubt in my mind that Gaara views mentoring future generations as one of his top priorities. Shinki wants to make his father proud and properly represent his family and village. He is hugely appreciative of any training time his busy father can spare for him - such an opportunity doesn't come every day. Both of them have very no-nonsense, goal-oriented personalities.

- So if Gaara had a couple of hours to spend however he wanted, he would invest them in the future of his village: Shinki. If Shinki had the chance to get some in-depth one-on-one training with his father, he would jump at the opportunity.

We know that Gaara, unlike Naruto with his son, has at least somewhat regularly been training Shinki in person. He has mentioned how he taught his son 'everything he knows' and Shinki actually training directly with his (very busy) father just makes sense: The two of them are the only people we know of with their kekkei genkai - and Gaara is the only one with abilities almost identical to Shinki's. It’s true that Gaara only knows the basics when it comes to iron sand - or rather, that was confirmed to be the case until at least the early blank period. But he would know next to every use of regular sand and that’s still more than any other jonin in suna. Of course, as the Kazekage, Gaara simply doesn't have the time to do the majority of Shinki's training - but I wouldn’t question that he's the one giving the crucial advice, reviewing his training progress and telling his son what abilities need more work.

So if he has a little bit of time to spare - I have no doubt he would (and does) put most of it into training Shinki. And that includes days off.

_________________________

But y'all didn't come for that - don't lie.

*enter Part 2: “But what if we talk about cats instead?”

We love these two (and the entire Sand-family for that matter) so naturally, we want to see them use their time off for anything BUT work or training. Gaara and Shinki are definitely the worst offenders here, they always seem like those people who would rather work on their duties than cut cake on their birthdays - Gaara more so because he seems very focused on always putting his own pleasure behind doing 'something useful to others' and Shinki because he's just beginning to realize the value of friendship. *Insert mlp meme here*

So for the sake of fun, we will just assume SOMETIMES Gaara decides that his son should do “normal activities” instead of training and ends up going somewhere with him. But where? If for some reason, Shinki were to accompany his father to another village for a diplomatic meeting, I think they would definitely walk around that village a bit and just take in the local culture: food, sights, and the like. Imagine the way Lee and Tenten showed Gaara and Kankuro around Konoha in episode 497 and had them try ramen for the first time - kind of like that. But this example also shows just how rarely Gaara seems to get time off during official visits: it took him being Kazekage for 4 years until he ate his first Ramen - but ok, if the war hadn’t been in the way I guess Naruto would have made him try it sooner. Now, if we are talking about “regular” time off, the place would definitely need to be in Suna - Gaara is important for the protection of his village so he can’t just leave whenever he wants.

I’m also going to assume that Gaara can walk around relatively freely without being bothered by crowds - if simply for the fact that we have seen him do so before, at least in other villages. Gaara strikes me as a character who could very much enjoy new experiences - there was once a time when most things “normal” people did were foreign to him and he had to go through a very steep learning curve after his first encounter with Naruto. I can see him trying new things when he gets the chance and also wanting to encourage Shinki to do the same - so long something falls not too far outside both of their comfort zones.

We established all the little details but no one has gone anywhere yet. So if we are going for something interesting: > how about we bring cats into this?

Gaara and Shinki strike me as having a lot of, for the lack of a better word, “cat-people energy” - were they aware of this before this fateful day? Probably not. Were they aware of it afterward? - you bet!

Gaara felt a bit confused when he heard that Suna would be hosting a big pet show for the first time in a few years *he had to sign the paperwork after all* - what was that again? People bring their cats and dogs to show them to visitors and a jury?

“Must be another unique way humans manage to be vain about their property” - the concept of placing much importance in the things one owns and how they reflect on you was something Gaara understood as a concept but never fancied.

He didn’t understand very well why visitors would want to see such a spectacle until Kankuro said something along the lines of “sometimes people just want to see animals do cute stuff I guess? You know how girls and kids are - show them a dog rolling over and they will go crazy - don’t worry too much about it, I’m also not much of a fan.”

On a second thought: “Oh but maybe Shinki likes that stuff? I mean he’s a kid - ..... although he doesn’t behave like one most of the time.”

- and with that comment, the deal was settled: there would be father-son bonding time scheduled and they would go observe cute animals!!

Shinki wasn’t very thrilled but what can you do - he wanted to train but was too well behaved and respected his father too much to object any of his decisions - no matter how strange some of them sounded.

In the end, none of them had high expectations for this trip but they went anyway because “At worst we have made a valuable experience” - Gaara

*Shinki didn’t dare question what could be “valuable” about this*

As it turned out, the date they picked for their visit was designated for cats of all breeds --

Of course, both Gaara and Shinki had seen cats before - from afar. No one in their family owned any animals - if you didn’t factor in the deer raised on the property of the Nara-clan.

But they had also HEARD about cats before

--------- mostly because Shukaku never seemed to miss an opportunity to insult them: “cats are the most useless creatures, it goes to show how stupid humans are for domesticating them” - “and you are sure you aren’t just saying this because kids always seem to mistake you for one?” -Kankuro would add

*Needless to say: Kankuro still enjoyed provoking people he really shouldn’t.* -------------

Well now the two shinobi were in front of one - their first close encounter with a feline - a big sand-colored persian with her owner, a friendly-looking old lady, standing next to her.

“Well I suppose they are quite endearing with their big eyes” -Gaara noted

Old lady: “Oh dear would you like to come closer? She really enjoys being pet behind her ears - she’s even calm with most strangers”

Gaara was a bit hesitant

When you’ve only ever heard bad things about cats and their temper you might think twice about petting them when you get the chance - at least until you take the courage to hold out your hand and they start purring like you are their best friend and they will love you forever.

Now, if anything gets Gaara - it’s being shown unconditional love and acceptance in unexpected places

yes apparently this does not exclude kitties

*holding out his hand while the cat is purring and meowing* Gaara : O.O Shinki, next to him: O.O Both of them internally: "ohhhh so THAT'S what all the fuss is about"

- Instant non-verbal agreement that cats are awesome

After that encounter, both might or might not have been extremely tempted to adopt a cat.

But since Gaara knew no one in this family had much time to spend at home - *and because he had this lingering sense that the cat might develop a taste for his succulents* - he had to resist.

This however wouldn’t mean that their next “family day” wasn’t already planned to be a trip to the local animal shelter. _________________________ Bonus:

eventually, Shukaku finds out about their trips and is NOT amused that they considered bringing one of “those things” home.

Yes- he’s still fuming from that one time he was carried by Shinki in his more “compact” form and a toddler pointed at them saying “oh your cat is so chubby! can I pet it? Pleeeeese!!” (*needless to say both Shinki and Gaara were mortified back then and hurried to get Shukaku away from the little girl before any casualties were to occur*)

He continues to sulk for at least a full month about this “betrayal”.

hq boys and their part time jobs.

yet another unseries headcanon post made by yours truly! unlike my last one which you can find here, i won’t be involving every single major hq character so that’s just a heads up!! i can’t always envision stuff fully with every single person...

kageyama tobio: this boy thought that applying to work part-time at a sports shop would be fitting ‘cause of his love for volleyball, completely unaware that this would involve way too much social interaction and tolerance???? like he thought he’d just have to look like someone who does sports and occasionally restock yoga mats but these loud ass kids are coming up to him asking for this that and the other for sports he’s never heard of. suddenly he regrets the entire thing. plus, he has no idea how to use the cash register and it’s his worse nightmare to ring up items without wanting to stomp a hole into it to get the customer’s change.

hinata shoyo: shoyo went straight for the pet shelter because he’s in love with playing with the little puppies. this boy will full on roll around with them, stuff them under his shirt so their heads poke out and just.. intergrate and become one of them... the doggies love him so much n always clamber to sit on his lap because hinata treats them with so much love and kindness!! customers looking for pets often joke about taking him home bc he’s just as excitable and friendly as the actual dogs. he’s also really good at convincing people on the fence to get a pet and explaining their individual personalities because he knows them so well :(

nishinoya yuu: he said: supermarket assistant so he could ride around on the carts, intimidates literally every customer with his ungodly enthusiasm but is determined to help EVERYONE, he’ll run around the store taking people where they need to go but only if he actually remembers where they’re situated. otherwise this boy is like “yeah they’re just... that way.” and bolts in the other direction. gets along with all his colleagues and tells them all about his tournaments with karasuno. he’s not the star employee but it wouldn’t be the same w out him.. often asks the manager if he can taste test the market’s pastry section to which he is rejected every single time.

tanaka ryuu: he’s convinced working in his local gym was him in his element, he wears that tag thing like a badge of honour and just walks around showing people he works there instead of actually doing his job??? he’s also overly enthusiastic and will sometimes cheer on the people working out as if he’s some kind of zealous personal trainer and everybody is like “literally how old is this guy??” he’s surprisingly awesome at reception duty because he’s always chatting to regulars about how they’re doing... the practical side like schedules and paperwork he leaves for someone else, everyone just puts up with him bc he’s a mood setter.

sugawara koushi: don’t get me started on this boy as a teacher’s assistant, like he helps little kids out with their work, tidies up the class during their break times and reads them stories?? he’s THAT senior boy who’s the biggest sweetheart and seeing him handle kids so well is like ... does he want some of his own ?? i’d like to offer my expertise he’s always got a smile on his face, gets along with all the staff much older than him, he’s like this perfect boy they all dote on and he gets super flustered saying he just really likes helping out the children and making them smile. often brings them little snacks too and they all call him big brother BYE.

tsukkishima kei: he does some low-key shit that’s kinda wholesome like working with the eldery or tutoring kids but prefers for literally nobody to know about it because anything he does outside of school is his business. he does it because it’s good pay, there’s not much else to it. if anybody found out he’d be super irritated tbh it’s just an invasion of privacy to him but eventually wouldn’t care because every kid is getting part-time jobs these days.

oikawa tooru: bye he’s THAT guy who got his job at a retail store because he’s pretty. like he has no real interest in clothes or anything but he takes the job as a place to validate himself when girls come up to him purposefully to flirt. he’s winking and laughing with them and also NOT actually doing his job but he brings in customers so at least he’s somewhat useful. doesn’t know how to fold clothes or hang stuff on hangers properly for shit and everyone lowkey wants to kick his ass but he’s actually very friendly and outgoing even if he has no clue what he’s doing. keeps asking if bra sizes come in small, medium and large and everyone just tells him to shut up.

iwaizumi hajime: when picking a job he was like “well what am i good at?” and went from there. he ended up as the local pool’s weekend lifeguard because he had the qualifications and time. again, everyone his age just tries to hit on him and he’s annoyed because it distracts him from the actual purpose of his job. he takes it seriously and impresses his colleagues with his swimming talent and knowledge on first aid. iwaizumi lowkey scares the little kids and they’re kind of afraid to ask him for help so he’s been working on looking a little more friendly.

kuroo tetsurou: kuroo as a tennis instructor assistant or just something sporty other than volleyball because he’s a multi-talented king?? like he’s not a professional by any means but he helps out the youth club and gets along with kids a few years younger than him. fills in for refs at tournaments, makes sure equipment is safe to use and is SUPER good at cheering club goers up when they lose or fail or can’t seem to do it correctly. he often refers to his experiences as nekoma’s captain to relate to them and they really admire his resilience and ask him to tell them more stories!!

kenma kozume: had to be dragged out to do a part-time job. was absolutely against the thought of it until hinata mentioned a friend of his who’d moved to the prefecture near kenma got a job at this new game shop. he was like fine and applied. he just kinda sat and people asked him questions about the games but he refused to do any further socialisation or actual grunt work like shelving, he quit pretty soon after, he just wanted the money to buy a game he ended up purchasing on his way out lmaoo

bokuto koutarou: he was dead set on having a volleyball related job, fukurodani have a club for junior players from all over the city to come and practice together. he was like?!? “and nobody told me??” he’s perfect for it as the captain and ends up as a secondary coach. he shows off A LOT and like kuroo, encourages the kids when they’re down. except kuroo is a more sit down, hand on shoulder, casual talk kind of guy. bokuto gets ridiculously sentimental and tells them dramatically about his lowest memories as captain when fukurodani lost and the kids are genuinely as emotional because of he way he tells it??? idk but they love him and he’s a ball of passion that keeps them going.

akaashi keiji: we are talking pretty waiter at a local gormet restaurant that gets tipped SO MUCH for his true professionalism. knows how to handle every situation with ease and is super calm, doesn’t care at all if someone from his school is there. he’s really just chasing that bag and he’s doing it well. bokuto often picks him up after his shifts so they can do stuff together but akaashi requests it be something calming since he’s tired after work... bokuto is like,, “so no to rock-climbing? alright i’ll reschedule..” the other waiters lowkey HATE the fact he gets tipped so well and they try and figure out his secrets. he has none. he’s just good at his job. i could see kiyoko working a similar job or somewhere lowkey like a flourist or bakery. she’s equally as professional and admired.

ushijima wakatoshi: ANY JOB. give this man any job and he’ll be able to carry it out like he’s been doing it since he popped out the womb. often mistaken for a grown adult so he gets jobs pretty easily? very very professional and aims to do everything perfectly. i think he’d also prefer a vb related job just like bokuto but something that could really get him somewhere big, smth to do with olympics like a paid internship for them .. can you even intern for the olympics lmao?? maybe something for the japanese team. it’s a lot of work to balance school & intern life but he’s very comitted and knows it’ll benefit him in the future. (kageyama was fuming when he found out he could have done that instead of his current gig).

tendou satori: has a job he’s very under-qualified for but somehow pulls off. he’s chilling at the hospital or law firm three times a week after classes or somewhere ridiculous but he’s doing just fine!! doesn’t actually do professional work n helps with small things but it impresses the hell out of everybody he tells, has no interest in persuing those careers but it’s fun for him, he gets paid VERY well for a boy his age and his personality creates a nice, talkative atmosphere in these seemingly tense environments.

miya atsumu / osamu: they both work at a café for novelty because they’re these handsome, athletic twins and it’s a thing that brings people in. they do a lot of fan service stuff and osamu is EXCELLENT like he was made for this job but atsumu is awful at keeping his cool. osamu will be chatting up customers, trying to persuade them to order more and atsumu is having a heated tustle with the coffee machine that’s broken down for the third time that day and it really ruins the magic osamu is trying to create. atsumu has probably sworn loudly. has probably almost been fired. he’s bad at playing along and flirting because he literally just wants them to leave so he can sit down lmao. osamu uses the pastries in the café as inspiration for his own at-home baking fiascos because it’s a stress-reliving hobby.

terushima yuji: he’s that boy in shoe shops that tries to sell you sneakers and he knows literally everything about them even when you really didn’t ask... looking to hit on girls that come in because shoe knowledge is obviously very sexy! alternatively you might catch him in a tattoo shop or sumn real appearance based and he definitely remembers all the regulars and greets them like they’re close friends, we’re talking inside jokes. always seems to know what tattoo people are looking to get purely based on their appearance and initial impression...

the list of unemployed:

yachi: too scared to do ANY job that requires interaction, she’s plagued by it.

hoshiumi: fired for picking too many fights with customers.

kyotani: EVEN WORSE THAN HOSHIUMI though he was strangely very efficient at paperwork.

suna: quit on the first day because it wasn’t what he expected and he doesn’t care about money that much.

lev: his family are like.... rich?? n nobody really expected it but he’s like yeah i really do not need one of those lmao.

yamaguchi: broke things, spilt things, smashed things. he really was trying his best..

aone: intimidated customers too much so they let him go (he was just STANDING THERE.. he deserved better).

sakusa: local venues are filthy, ushijima got the internship spot, no other job interests him enough to persue.

ALSO DROP YOUR RECS FOR GETTING INTO DSMP FOR MAI AND ALSO FOR THE PEOPLE BC MINE ARE BAD AND NOT HELPFUL

k i’m avoiding like 4 assignments by doing this thank kyou so much but!

HERE’S A MASTERPOST FOR PPL WANTING TO GET INTO DSMP SHIT

lol bc there’s like, so god damned much of it and it’s super overwhelming I don’t blame u for being intimidated. (DISCLAIMER: y’all im not an expert, the only pov’s I really watch are Techno’s, Tommy’s, Tubbo’s, and Fundy’s so take my advice with a grain of salt. Also I’m so sorry but I don’t have the time to put actual links on everything T-T plz forgive)

First of all: I’m separating y’all into squads so listen up and remember your squad bc half the fun of DSMP is curating your own watching experience

PRO squad: you like lore heavy streams that are still fun but have ppl acting more often than not and putting lots of effort into making their characters/ stories complex? You go here. You’re gonna want to stick with Ranboo streams. Wilbur Soot’s also a good option, and Badboyhalo too OH AND Karl!!.

-Sub categories:

Kid friendly wholesome: badboyhalo is the most wholesome, rn he’s goin thru a villain arc but he’s still very kid friendly and wholesome Chaotic and angsty: Wilbur’s ur guy, rn he’s doin a ghost arc and it’s angsty as hell but also chaotic as fuck. He’s a fantastic storyteller tho with great lore Angsty but wholesome: Ranboo also an excellent motherfucker who’s puts so much effort into his streams down to specific music/ hidden easter eggs just--everything he’s great Scripted and SLAPPING: Karl’s “Tales from the SMP” FUCK, I think there’s only one ep out rn?? and it takes place in the future of DSMP.

BUILD squad: you like watching blockmen stack blocks into cool shapes but also want a lil taste of story? Philza Minecraft, and Awesamdude have your back babey. (Tubbo is also kind of on this list but he’s getting his own category)

-Sub categories

Dad vibes but make them bloodthirsty: Philza! He’ll blow up a city cuz it sounds like fun but also says things like “save your money for a house first Tubbo, then think about buying a Ferrari.” Also he’s a fucking incredible builder and he spent 5 years on one hardcore world turnign the end into a giant ocean biomb go watch that video it’s worth it Dad vibes but make them capitalist: Awesamdude!!! He built the most insane prison on the server and he’s adorable

ENTERTAIN ME squad: do you not know basically anything about minecraft and just want to be entertained? You like a bit of lore but not having everything be super serious all the time? Techno, Tubbo, Tommy, and Fundy are the bastards for you

-Sub categories

UNADULTURATED CHAOS but intellectually: Techno. He’s basically a chaos god who has no qualms putting in literally months worth of time and dedication into practically meaninglessly funny goals. Anarchist pig with fashion sense--what’s not to love? Chaos, lore, angst, hilarity: FUNNDDDYYY!!!!! He’s fucking hilarious, also really good at character stuff??? I love him, haven’t watched many of his streams yet but they slap Chill, turn on in the background vibe: Tubbo!!! Literally Tubbo is just so chill until every once in a while he snaps and goes mad scientist it’s great. He’s literally anxiety relief in the form of a 17 year old, 12/10, also will whip out fucking excellent lore skills out of nowhere. I get bored easily by streams: TOMMY!!! This kid honestly has no right being fucking hilarious, he’s a bit abrasive but I promise it grows on you. He’ll make 2 hour long streams seem like 5 minutes and your lungs will be on the verge of collapsing. Also able to kill it with lore.

this was rushed I’m so sorry but I need to go read like four more scholarly essays and take an environmental science quiz on a chapter I never read so wish me luck and enjoy!! <33

(oh also also: if u don’t wanna watch 2hr long streams there’s also TONS of highlight channels on youtube dedicated to posting lore highlights/ funny moments/ etc. DreamSMP Daily is the first one that popped up in my youtube feed but there’s tons and I promise as soon as u start watching dsmp vids they’ll be all over your recommended’s)

k byeee

#also I forgot to mention quackity bc i'm a terrile fucking person but he's 100% in the chaotic 'entertain me' section #like tommy but older #XDD #luci doesn't shut up #dsmp #ok bye for real now fuck I have so much work to akjdf;lajsdfl;kdsfl doasdlkjfds

Some Wholesome PonceFK

How the Friendship Started

Ponce and JFK’s friendship stems all the way back to when they were children. They met in grade school, and the friendship kinda started because their last names are next to each other in the alphabet so they were assigned to be each others’ line partners (did anyone else have that? at my school we walked in twos to save room on the sidewalk so we were all assigned a person to walk next to).

They started playing together on the playground more often after school, but their foster parents got tired of sitting around for hours to monitor them so eventually they decided to set up some playdates for the boys. They usually just stayed in JFK’s room because he had a huge set of vintage matchbox cars that they especially liked to play with. They would make race courses out of whatever they could find -- straws, plastic eating utensils, pieces from toy train tracks, etc. Ponce was a lot better at making interesting courses than JFK because he liked to use all of the materials at once.

Their parents became close from spending so much time together due to their sons being friends, so they started scheduling family-friend vacations like going camping and whatnot. Ponce and JFK lived pretty close to each other, so it was one of those instances where they could walk or ride their bikes to the other person’s house and just spend the whole day there on weekends. They liked to have back-to-back sleepovers, and their parents went along with it because the boys were easy to take care of and mostly stayed out of the way.

They didn’t get to spend that much time together at school as they got older because class schedules become more complicated, but their friendship never faltered because they built up this unbreakable bond when they were so young that it didn’t even matter. Even if they went a couple days without more than a small acknowledgement in the hallway, they could always get back into their groove when they finally did get to see each other one-on-one. They never felt like their friendship was threatening to fall apart.

How They Admitted

JFK didn’t notice that his feelings for Ponce had changed from a platonic standpoint to a romantic standpoint for a while. It just never dawned on him that anything had changed because they’d had such a close bond for such a long time. JFK had relationships (or hookups, really) with girls, but he always felt empty afterwards, and somehow Ponce could always fill that emptiness. One day JFK’s foster dads were telling him about how they met (even though he didn’t ask), and JFK thought that maybe some of their love story applied to him and Ponce.

After figuring out that his feelings for Ponce weren’t just friendly, he started acting a little more awkward around Ponce. He asked for his approval on a lot of things that he hadn’t asked for it on before, and he was trying to stick close to Ponce to try to see if he felt the same way. JFK offered to walk Ponce to class when their classes were in relatively the same place, and he started eating lunch with Ponce too. Ponce didn’t really suspect anything of the change; he was just happy to be getting some extra time out of his best friend.

JFK had no idea how Ponce felt, because Ponce is more reserved and honestly, JFK isn’t that good at sensing other peoples’ emotions because he’s so in his own head all the time. After a while, he began to feel antsy and he was scared Ponce was going to go find a girl to date and it would be over for him. Every night before he went to sleep, JFK told himself he was going to do it tomorrow. He practiced what he was going to say in the mirror in the morning before school, but nothing ever sounded right so he just kept putting it off.

Because JFK has a lot of trouble bearing his feelings and isn’t all that familiar with confrontation, he decided he could write it in a note. He didn’t want to seem juvenile, so he read it out loud to Ponce instead of just giving it to him and running away. That way, he could keep his eyes fixed on the paper instead of Ponce. He talked fast and quiet, hoping Ponce would get enough information to respond if he felt the same way and not enough information to ruin their friendship if he didn’t feel the same way. When JFK finished reading the note, he folded it up neatly and tucked it in his pocket and then started mumbling stuff like “sorry” and “but I get it if you don’t feel the same way...” just because he was so nervous about their friendship being ruined.

At first Ponce laughed, and JFK got a little bit mad about that because Ponce knows how hard it is for him to talk about his feelings. But Ponce wasn’t laughing at him, he was laughing in relief because now he didn’t have to be the one to initiate the relationship. He explained to JFK why he was laughing at that he likes him back.

JFK said something stupid like “rad!” just because he had no idea what was supposed to come next. Ponce thinks he’s adorable, and tells him that’s why he likes him.

They didn’t tell their foster parents that they’re dating because they’re afraid they won’t be allowed to hang out in JFK’s room with the door closed or have sleepovers, but their parents still figured out pretty quickly anyway.

i could keep going, but i think that’s another post hehe

Future/Post-Unlock Fic Idea

I’m probably not going to write this since I have another Kotlc Keefex fic in the works that’s going to be long af, but I still love this other idea. Spoilers for Unlocked ahead and warning, this is very long.

- After Keefe runs away to the Forbidden Cities, everyone feels pretty crap and Dex is hit very hard by this considering that Keefe left not even 5 minutes after talking to him and putting together another hecked up ability that Dex pointed out.

- Things get worst when it gets out to the public that Dex had a little crush on Keefe and that he’s gay.

- We all know how the Lost Cities handles relationships outside of the norm, so the usual bullying that Dex goes through for bad match/triplets/general weirdness trifecta gets ramped up to 11 and people even call for his regent status.

- Things cross a line when threats are made against his family and Dex decides that it’d be better and safer if he wasn’t around, so he also runs away. (I don’t have the heart for major character death, so we’re not doing that here.)

- Dex goes to New York, NY at some ungodly hour of the morning when he gets stopped by a drunk creep, but lo and behold, our knight in shining armor Keefe shows up before Dex would need to blow his cover.

- As you could imagine, Keefe’s been having a pretty terrible time as well, over the whole abandoning the people that care about him due and general self-destructing. Part of him is overjoyed to see a familiar face, but the other part of him is not happy that another person important to him is uprooted and he somehow finds a way to blame himself for it.

- Seeing as Dex is already there and there’s nothing he can do about it now, Keefe shows him where he’s been staying and after some badgering, Dex tells him what happened. It comes to their attention that they both are in desperate need of some emotional support and comfort, so that ensues.

- For context, this is running off of my headcanon that Keefe and Dex know that they have feeling for each other (think Neverseen), but due to the thin ice that Keefe was tap dancing on and some internalised-homophobia, romantic feelings were kept at an arm’s length.

- Some time later, the two of them get into a good routine and tackle that romantic tension and try their best to work through their emotional constipation/trauma. This would be something like a series of oneshot-ish things of bonding moments and time skipping stuff.

- I like to think that Dex got a tech job for the sake of not breaking the human economy with infinite money and helping that company be more eco friendly and (mostly) Keefe does a lot of volunteer work. Together they make the world a better place and it’s wholesome.

-Also, being with humans has let Keefe get much better control of his powers and Dex was able to take a new approach at using tech to get Keefe to a better place.

- In what seems like a normal oneshot-y chapter on Christmas Eve (or something like that) a few years later, Keefe is out getting some ingredients for dinner and he hears something very strange; a baby not only crying, but speaking Enlighten Language.

- With a lapse of ‘what the hell should I do with this kid in the dead of winter,’ Keefe brings the baby home. He and Dex (who was just cooking and minding his own beeswax) come to the conclusion that the child is kinda stuck with them. They couldn’t just give him to social services since he’s an elf and this child was clearly abandoned out here, so they didn’t want to send him back to those people. We all know too well how the Lost Cities handles abusive parents.

- They name him Noel and more really cute bonding happens.

-Also, in this time, Keefex actually gets legally married. Tax benefits, ya’ll.

- Both Dex and Keefe help homeschool the little guy so he understands the Lost Cities and elvian culture and he also participates after school activities like sports, so he also has human friends too. In general, he’s really well adapted. (Although, the parenting duo made it very clear that Elvian stuff is a large secret.)

- More timeskip later, and Noel is ten years old and a year before when you’d start school in the Lost Cities bringing up a very important question; should they go back to the Elvian word?

- Things get interesting when Keefe gets a hail from Grady telling him that his mom wasn’t only captured after the Neverseen was dispelled, but was killed in prison.

- Dex and Keefe decide that if there was ever a time to return, this was it, since running away to the human world for about 15 years is still very illegal and with Gisla being gone, there’d be less questioning around why these two were coming back. Plus, they had no clue what would happen if/when Noel manifested.

- One call to Grady later, and Keefe, Dex, and Noel are packed up and ready to leave the place where they set up a life, but things are looking pretty hopeful.

- When they show up to Havenfield, reunions begin very fast. Sophtiz was already at Havenfield when the gang shows up and they have a lot to say about the Great Keefex Reappearance ranging from hugs to wanting to punch them. All things considered, a reasonable response.

- To say the least, the main characters have quite the time learning about their new aunt and uncle status.

- But then the Council gets involved and they want to figure out where Noel came from. It’s not long until they find his bio-parents that apparently have a child that’s the same age as him. The exact same age.

- Yeah, so, Noel’s a twin and he was dumped by his bio-parents because they’re “oldies.” More legal crap and the Council finally does something right by putting both of the kids under Dex and Keefe’s care.

- If you couldn’t tell, they’re amazing parents.

There’s other stuff I could add and I hadn’t really thought of a good ending, but I need to stop writing about this. If anyone feels like actually taking this idea, go nuts. Now, I must sleep. Thanks for reading this freaking essay.

Note

I finally figured out how to send asks on mobile :D Got any headcanons for how Illumi, Hisoka, (plus gon and Killua if it's not too much trouble) would decorate for Christmas? I just think that would be kinda poggers UwU

YESSSS I DO ACTUALLY! CANT WAIT TILL CHRISTMAS GUYS! I decided to just pin this post until the end of December so if anybody else wants any Christmas headcanons I’ll just add it here and I did put extra characters/headcanons because of that reason and if you want me to add anybody else just send in a request about it! (also dont mind the random juiceboxes I just left them out bc I don’t feel like adding new ones when adding random hc’s.) THANKS SO MUCH FOR REQUESTING! I’ll finish illumi and hisoka later but my food just arrived so I’m gonna go start on that first :)

Hunter x Hunter Christmas Event! This Event Includes The Main 4, The Adult Trio, The Phantom Troupe, The Zoldyck Family, The Freecss Family, And The Minor Characters!

Illumi

🧃 rich kid is gonna be the one with either nothing but a tree or literally is gonna go to the point of fake snow on the stair rails

🧃 it’s either nerf or nothing for this man. either go all out or don’t go at all mf

🧃 he likes Christmas except the fact it’s cold, girlie isn’t a fan of cold weather

🧃 he’ll probably do the jazz with the gingerbread cookies tho :’)

🧃 but yeah his tree’s gonna look like the ones in the movies with like all the height and the little balls with the perfect star on top bc babie is perfect so his tree should be too ✨

🧃 he says he doesn’t want anything but if you actually get him something he’ll be so touched-

🧃 he maybe will take a day off of fuck knows what to spend Christmas with anybody-

🧃 okay we all know he’s spending Christmas with hisoka and we can’t change that

🧃 poor baby he just wants to be held and feel the feeling of warmth again so he is a fan of hot chocolate

🧃 will not go out in the snow but he will go with you or anybody that wants to go outside and play

🧃 he isn’t a fan of dressing up but he’ll take his s/o out on a Christmas date (I will do a mini scenario/hc’s for this if you guys want.)

Hisoka

🧃 I feel if he wasn’t a pedophile or mass murderer they would hire him to work as a mall Santa Claus.

🧃 he’d probably do a color coded thing and the whole house would be that color

🧃 this mf would buy a gift for himself-

🧃 he wouldn’t do anything to his room and the biggest ick about him I have is that he has nothing in his room but a bed, dresser, desk, lamp, and nightstand like only the necessities so he wouldn’t do that much.

🧃 if he had a kid he’d 100% to elf on the shelf until they were like 16 years old and even use his nen ability to secretly make them move so the kid would believe in the magic for a while

🧃 he’s forcing illumi to come over cause he doesn’t want the little shit to be alone and sad on Christmas.

🧃 he got illumi a present

🧃 not a fan of those childish Christmas films but he’s pretty fond of the romance ones tbh

🧃 he literally never ends up under the mistletoe because everybody’s avoiding it so they won’t have to kiss the scary guy-

🧃 he can COOK asf so he’ll def make a feast for him and his s/o or just friends :)

Killua

🧃 he’s gonna be the most fun with all this, he want everything either blue, purple, or white. Literally he hates doing shit and not perfecting it (nikki minaj??)

🧃 he’d be the one to act like a mom saying “stupid I’m not buying that it’s too expensive!” and then you wake up with it under the tree- “you thought you weren’t getting it didn’t you?” I stg he is literally EVERY SINGLE MOTHER ON EARTH and it’s not even funny.

🧃 he wants to go play in the snow and make snow angels but he won’t say anything until you say something

🧃 hc that his ears and nose turn kinda red when it’s cold

🧃 he’s literally cooking a red velvet cake and there is no point in stopping him

🧃 he probably isn’t a morning christmas guy, he’s all for around 11-12 gifts so then you guys can bake cookies and play in the snow a ton because you got some energy stored up

🧃 this mf wants chocolate robots for Christmas and probably at one point in his life asked Santa for a new family but he didn’t deliver ig. (Illumi probably wrote him a fake Santa note saying that his family was better than everybody else’s.)

🧃 his parents forced him to go sing those fucking Christmas songs when they know damn well those kids sound ratchet.

🧃 he ALWAYS ends up under the mistletoe with somebody. Even if it’s unintentional it always happens.

🧃 a giant fan of wreaths for some reason? He puts one on every door.

Gon

🧃 his favorite holiday is Christmas so ohhh boy this is gonna be magical-

🧃 red green and white colors. you cannot change his mind literally that is what colors are in his head as soon as he hears the word Christmas.

🧃 the tree’s gonna be HUGE and he’s gonna want to decorate every room in the house. The bathroom, your room, his room, and yes he is that one neighbor with the fucking big ass lights outside-

🧃 he is a firm Santa believer he doesn’t take criticism.

🧃 literally is going to wake everybody up at 6 fucking am to open gifts and everybody is gonna do it because can we really resist his pouty face? no.

🧃 the joy on his face opening any gifts make it a fucking can of baked beans makes it all worth losing about 3-4 hours of sleep :,)

🧃 he probably wants toys for Christmas, I get he’s 14 but hxh doesn’t exactly have too much social media so he wouldn’t be trying to grow up too fast

🧃 he would get matching sleepwear for everybody except for some fucking reason it actually will look cute and he won’t just settle for a ugly ass tight suffocating elf sweater.

🧃 he believes Christmas is about spending time with your family and probably donated his old toys to a center so kids who didn’t have toys got some :)

🧃 he’s gonna make sure everybody has a good time, like every single person. it’s a main protagonist thing I guess but I mean I applaud him for it.

🧃 doesn’t quite ever end up under the mistletoe with anybody but if he happened to he’d giggle and kiss their cheek in a friendly way.

Leorio

🧃 he’s gonna reuse the same fucking plastic wrinkled tree he’s been using for 12 years because the tree prices are “insane” even on sale.

🧃 he would be the one a Walmart ringing the little bell and forcing kurapika to sing with him because he needs the money.

🧃 his house is the one with rainbow colored little balls and it’s so ghetto but at the same time adorable

🧃 he is literally that one neighbor who gets the most snow and it’s the snow that’s basically ice and will take around 6 good days to shovel up.

🧃 maybe wont shovel out the snow too early because he wants killua and gon to have fun.

🧃 he wants money for Christmas and nothing more, but kurapika tells him money isn’t a real gift and to ask for something else

🧃 even not being a morning person, he LIVES for morning Christmas.

🧃 probably eats snow.

🧃 he would try to cook and it might work actually

🧃 miss girl is plopped right down right next to gon watching elf on the shelf movies

🧃 he wears the Santa hat and is lowkey twinning with kurapika-

Kurapika

🧃 this bitch is gonna make you wait all fucking day to open gifts 😀

🧃 he thinks afternoon/nigh Christmas is the best. On Christmas eve he would literally sit down and watch movies with killua and gon for exactly 2 hours while leorio waits outside because kurapika wants him to sound like there’s somebody on the roof and kurapika can put the two children to bed and get a break for the rest of the night to finish gift wrapping and food making

🧃 hella good at wrapping gifts- commercial wrapping mf.

🧃 he thinks a white color coded Christmas looks best

🧃 he’d give killua and gon like 150$ to buy Christmas stuff for their rooms and that’s lowkey just him trying his best he doesn’t know what the fuck else to do he isn’t a mom-

🧃 he might teach the other 3 traditional kurta songs his clan and him sung on Christmas.

🧃 he’s twinning with leorio cause he got the reindeer ears I mean get it ig-

🧃 leorio is BEGGING kurapika to let him get a couple of drinks and kurapika’s like “YOURE GONNA STAY SOBER AND YOURE GONNA LIKE IT BITCH.”

🧃 he may or may not boys whatever they asked for and accidently on purpose use leorio’s credit card-

🧃 he just wants everybody to be happy, but can we blame him? it’s Christmas why wouldn’t he?

🧃 okay all wholesomeness aside he’s making leorio shovel the driveway.

Chrollo

🧃 he thinks this is like a romance thing

🧃 he’ll probably steal a gift or 2 for you ya know

A Useless Post Rating the Preppers From Death Stranding

Because I can and I will. I got super attached to some of these bunches of pixels while playing, and I want to share my useless and extra subjective opinions

No plot-related spoilers. This is only listing the Preppers and not any Bridges employee from the various cities and facilities. No reasonable individuals to be found here, only strange people living in bunkers, baby

Let’s go

The Ludens Fan

Shelter placement: On a mountain, right between a Timefall zone and MULE territory, and not on any obvious delivery route. Not great. The view is super nice, though. 6/10

Prepper: A cinnamon roll who believes the world will be saved by fandoms and games. Always happy to see you. Gets super excited when you find old figurines for him. Sends lost stuff to people he doesn’t even know. Has toy dinosaurs.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Not really.

Opinion while playing: He is a Friend. 9/10

The Musician

Shelter placement: Hidden behind a little cliff, on a mountain, in a patch of nice fresh moss, next to a cool waterfall, overlooking the whole valley. Not on any delivery route whatsoever but come on. This guy is living the dream. 10/10

Prepper: Talks to you as if he’s known you since highschool. Has an emo haircut. Very passionate about rock albums from the “beginning of the 21st century” so I’m assuming he’s a fellow MCR fan. The walls of his shelter are covered in vinyls. Wants to create and share the music of the future for free. Streams his concerts on the chiral network.

Will I get something nice if I help them: A harmonica. You can play it. I’m in love

Opinion while playing: Hell yeah what a cool dude 10/10

The Engineer

Shelter placement: In plain view right next to a huge road and two MULE territories. Dude didn’t even try to hide and his packages are stolen all the time. At least the weather is nice? 3/10

Prepper: Has spent his entire life inside of this bunker since birth. Polite and a bit shy. Has a friendly smile. Judging by the amount of alcohol we deliver to him, feels lonely. Sometimes you’ll find gallons of lube with his name on it and he’ll refuse to give any kind of explanation and to be fair the guy probably uses it for all his mechanical inventions. But deep down, we know.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Upgrades for the Power Skeleton. You know you want them.

Opinion while playing: Another Friend. I will judge him silently every time I have to bring him his lost lube though. 9/10

The Craftsman

Shelter placement: Next to a huge road on a plain ravaged by Timefall, between two MULE territories and a voidout crater choke-full of BTs. Can potentially see the nightmarish ruins of a roadside factory and a traffic jam where everyone clearly got killed. I don’t know if I hate it or respect the shit out of it. 2/10

Prepper: Suspicious of us. Sends us on a suicide mission to fetch old equipment in a terrifying place. Hates Fragile, so we can’t be friends. Likes to fix broken watches, apparently. A lot of his lost packages seem to be special reinforced underwear. I’m curious but also I don’t want to pry.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Custom hematic grenades. Can’t live without them.

Opinion while playing: A suspicious little shit and I don’t trust him but he’s still a good ally. 5/10

The Elder

Shelter placement: On a majestic plateau in the middle of the region, overlooking everything. Not on any obvious route, which is a problem, but also away from danger, Timefall and MULEs. A green little patch of heaven. 9/10

Prepper: Old and kind but takes no shit from anybody. All of his emails are like “anyway, f█ck the government and f█ck this country” and I’m living for it. Will give away old photo albums, books and games predating the Death Stranding, in hope they can be shared with other people and their kids. Wholesome as hell.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Not really.

Opinion while playing: The most valid boomer you will ever see. My adoptive grandfather and I must protect him at all costs. 10/10

Peter Englert

Shelter placement: Not on any obvious delivery route but right next to Lake Knot City on a plain ravaged by Timefall. You can see Middle Knot City’s crater from there. Not a bad spot, but also no good vibes whatsoever. 6/10

Prepper: Never at home, has no hologram and keeps finding terrible excuses not to be there, which is rude. Possibly imaginary friends and relatives. Writes extremely long and well-spoken, obsequious, smarmy emails to you and you’ll receive them at the worst possible moments, like he just knows. Only interested in pizza, and you.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Hope you like high quality guns, and very disturbing journal entries.

Opinion while playing: Was literally calling him my nemesis even BEFORE learning anything about the guy. The best and the worst prepper at the same time. Go f█ck yourself, dude, I love you. Pizza/10

The Timefall Farmer and the Environmental Scientist

Shelter placement: Right next to a huge MULE territory. There’s the Tar Belt in the distance and no city, road or friends for miles. Very awkward. 4/10

Preppers: Planned to study the effects of Timefall on plants and became farmers instead. They are not enjoying it one bit and you’re under the impression they occasionally get on each other’s nerves even though they’ve been colleagues for years. The concept of their farm is a fantastic bit of worldbuilding, though, but they are a bit bland themselves.

Will I get something nice if I help them: A goose hologram. I need it

Opinion while playing: They’re super nice but their general weariness is too contagious for comfort. 4/10

The Film Director

Shelter placement: In the middle of jagged rocks, reasonably far away from local MULEs and Timefall, but also from any kind of road or decent delivery route. The ground is a poisonous reddish brown with occasional smoke. Ominous. 5/10

Prepper: Really worried about ancient media getting lost and forgotten, and will do anything to save old movies from oblivion. Trusts you instantly. Is always surprised you brought something for him, or just thought about him, and it’s heartwarming to see. Geeks about things he likes in your emails when he isn’t low-key flirting with you. Has the most epic beard you will ever see in your life.

Will I get something nice if I help them: A rock hologram. Uh?

Opinion while playing: Came for the geeking, stayed for the flirting 8/10

The Collector

Shelter placement: Inside a cavern two-thirds up a vertical rock face in a canyon slap bang in the middle of MULE territory. Invisible from ground level, and invisible from the bottom of the canyon. The MULEs live literally next door and don’t even know the guy is there. No chill whatsoever. Incredible. What a king. 10/10

Prepper: Shaped like a friend. Loves videogames and loves geeking about them. Fascinated by pre-Stranding press like “people were buying newspapers? On real paper?? :O”. Really wants you to read his emails because he’s got nobody to share his special interests with. Wants to write about your adventures to inspire other people. Occasionally you’ll find a lost package with a vintage playstation and you know it’s for him even without looking at the name on the tag.

Will I get something nice if I help them: A backpack cover to protect your stuff from Timefall?? holy shit?

Opinion while playing: We have no choice but to stan. 9/10

The Junk Dealer

Shelter placement: On a heavily polluted, rust-colored hill in the middle of a scrapyard full of broken down cars, overlooking both MULE and BT territory AND some f█cking terrifying ruins on all sides. It’s metal as shit, but also, the dude’s got a death wish. 3/10

Prepper: Tries to emotionally blackmail us with videos of his supposedly dead girlfriend. Very rude. Sends us on a suicide mission in BT territory to look for junk just for a laugh. Is such a piece of shit he got divorced by a woman who was willing to be carried under heavy Timefall through a horde of BTs to see him. Killed his girlfriend’s parents and didn’t tell her.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Upgrades for the Speed skeleton, and also chiral ladders, which are both life-saving, and I hate the fact that I need those so much.

Opinion while playing: A piece of shit and a terrible human being. Go sit on some rusty metal in BT territory, my dude. 1/10

The Chiral Artist and her Mother

Shelter placement: Overlooking a bottomless lake of tar and depressing ruins plagued by Timefall, far from civilisation but also far from trouble. Depressing, but safe. 6/10

Preppers: A little ray of sunshine. Capable of planning a journey on foot while avoiding Timefall and BTs after having done the trip exactly once (1) and on our back, which makes her one of the bravest Preppers we ever meet. Talented as hell with chiralium. Very awkward speech patterns and elocution which I always find relatable. Makes extremely bad choices regarding her love life. Will send you likes in a cringy but cute way. I don’t really trust her adoptive mother too much but she seems to be friends with the Cosplayer and any friend of the Cosplayer is my friend.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Chiral boots. Literally the most useful thing anyone anywhere gave me in this game. No matter how far I am from her and her mom I will backtrack to get some brand new chiral boots from her every time I need them. They are that good

Opinion while playing: I love her but she’s making extremely bad life choices and it’s giving me mild anxiety 8/10

The Cosplayer and the Wandering MC

Shelter placement: At the very bottom of a long, narrow canyon plagued by Timefall, inside a vertical hole in the ground. How they haven’t both drowned yet is beyond me. This is the worst idea ever. 1/10

Prepper: Both of them are always super excited to see you. Trade a ton of art and crafts supplies back and forth with everyone in the region. Organised a goddamn post-apo cosplay convention through the chiral network. She considers cosplay to be ‘the art of transformation’, and he’s a big fan of you, and also otters. Otter facts. Dad Jokes to the max. Legends only

Will I get something nice if I help them: Backpack custom options. And the otter hood. Come on. Who doesn’t want to look like an otter. According to the MC it was “threaded and triple stitched by [his] cosplay partner using silk”. I don’t deserve this gift

Opinion while playing: Just because it’s the apocalypse doesn’t mean you can’t look and feel your best 10/10

The Doctor and the Medical Device Engineer

Shelter placement: Overlooking a little river in the mountains, right before the snow starts. Extremely close to Mountain Knot City. Practical and beautiful. Lovely spot. 8/10

Preppers: She invented and crafted a medical terminal that allows doctors to examine patients remotely through the network, and distributed it for free. He’s sitting on years of medical knowledge and stockpiles of meds, and also sharing both with everyone. Got married because they admired each other so much and shared a common hatred of the lack of medical assistance post-Stranding. Two absolute angels. We don’t deserve them

Will I get something nice if I help them: Custom blood bags. A must during boss fights.

Opinion while playing: A bit too serious, but mad respect. 7/10

The Photographer

Shelter placement: In the mountains, in the middle of nowhere, overlooking the valley, but away from everything and everyone, next to BT territory and daaaangerously close to the biggest Demens camp in the entire country. Who told you this was a good idea. 4/10

Prepper: The walls of her shelter are decorated with photos of beautiful landscapes. Friendly but takes no shit. Constantly trying to go out to take pictures of cool places and weird paleoart and stuff even though there’s a whole gang of terrorists outside firing live ammo at anyone on sight. Her cameras get stolen all the time, and yet she keeps doing it again and again. Judging by one delivery she sent to Mountain Knot City, she even has footage of Edge Knot City. You know. The unreachable nightmarish place beyond the f█cking Tar Belt. HOW

Will I get something nice if I help them: Guns because she clearly has no chill

Opinion while playing: This woman has more nerves in her left pinky than I have in my entire f█cking body. We stan a queen 9/10

The Novelist’s Son

Shelter placement: In a vast, beautiful green plain full of rivers and lakes, kind of in the middle of nowhere but also at a safe distance of the Demens territory. It’s painted the same green as the rest of the plain, which is a stroke of genius. 8/10

Prepper: Considering his title and the fact that the walls of his shelter are full of bookshelves, I expected a pretentious writer of sorts. But no. He doesn’t write. He’s just a soft boy who wants to save the world with plants. Will make sure you read his emails because he’s very passionate about gardening, gourds and mythology, and wants to talk about it with everyone. Too good for this world, too pure.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Special cryptobiotes! Pretty cool. I want to save some for Fragile

Opinion while playing: I love him I love thinking about him 10/10

The Roboticist

Shelter placement: High in the mountains, but in some sort of hollow, surrounded by snow and rocks on all sides. There’s also a nice hot spring nearby. Feels strangely safe and pleasant for such an isolated spot. 7/10

Prepper: Super approachable and quite friendly. Clearly a genius considering how good the all-terrain skeleton is. The stuff she’s looking for goes from stuff for her projects to a plush for her kid or a vintage coffee machine. Her emails, meanwhile, are shit-your-pants terrifying, like her wondering if machines should replace humans, or pranking you by pretending she was dead the whole time and her hologram is an IA. Thank you for the heart attack.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Upgrades for the all-terrain skeleton, hell yeah baby

Opinion while playing: I’m very conflicted because her emails are scary as shit but if she stepped on my face I’d say “thank you” 8/10

The Mountaineer and the Mountain Guide

Shelter placement: On top of a mountain but in a relatively flat and safe area, very isolated but also far from Beached Things, with good visibility. There’s logic to the madness. 6/10

Preppers: Initially in panic mode due to a medical emergency. Tough outside, but soft inside. He gives you precious advice about whiteouts and how to deal with them and stay alive in the mountains. We don’t know much about her, except she used to explore the mountains using chiral climbing anchors. Just speculation but I’m under the impression they met one day on a super dangerous expedition and ended together because they were both tough as nails, or maybe because they saved each other. Their kid is going to be unstoppable.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Chiral climbing anchors.

Opinion while playing: Wholesome couple of adventurers. A bit bland, but in a good way 7/10

The Spiritualist

Shelter placement: On a mountain peak in the middle of a whiteout area, but sometimes the weather can be decent and the view pretty nice, if you squint. Getting there feels like a test to join a secret cult and I don’t like that one bit. 3/10

Prepper: Twin sister of the Cosplayer, but gives off a very different vibe, like some sort of white suburban mom who’s discovering new age stuff. Has a very mystical approach to this whole apocalypse thing but seems to be wayyy too much into it for comfort. Really wants to see the Beach and tries to do so through meditation. We can receive chemicals from her. I do NOT want to know what’s in there.

Will I get something nice if I help them: A RACCOON HOLOGRAM?? I LOVE IT

Opinion while playing: Harmless but she scares me. 3/10

The First Prepper

Shelter placement: On a nearly inaccessible mountain peak battered by snow storms. The slope is so dangerous I straight up died once while walking on it. Absolutely nothing for miles and no visibility. That’s not a shelter, that’s a coffin. 1/10

Prepper: Apparently his family has lived in shelters ever since the beginning of the Cold War, then decided to stay there in case the world would end in the year 2000, then because of the Bush era, and long story short the guy is like “I did it before it was cool” and he’s literally gatekeeping other Preppers and calling them amateurs. Tries really hard to convince us to stop helping people and get our own shelter. At least he admits self-sufficiency is a mirage in the end, which is more than I expected from this clown.

Will I get something nice if I help them: A hat, and a wolf hologram

Opinion while playing: When the nicest thing I have to say about a Prepper is “well they’re not hurting anybody”, you know it’s bad. What a jerk 2/10

The Evo-Devo Biologist

Shelter placement: On an isolated snow slope away from civilisation, overlooking ruins and geysers in the distance. Not far from BT territory and terrorists, but still at a reasonable distance. Next to a hot spring. The view is majestic as f█ck. 9/10

Prepper: Looks strict and gives off severe teacher vibes, but you’re under the impression that’s purely because she hasn’t seen or talked to another human being in years. Polite but distant. Thinks the sixth mass extinction is a golden opportunity for science, and inevitable, and that we should study the shit out of it even if we end up dying. She’s not wrong exactly but also, yikes

Will I get something nice if I help them: Not really.

Opinion while playing: I genuinely have no idea. An enigma. 5/10

The Geologist

Shelter placement: High in the mountains on a desolate snowy slope, completely isolated from everything. I think I’ve seen a movie about that kind of place once, except it was a hotel. 2/10

Prepper: The first package we bring to him is a shipment of meds to fight chiral contamination. No more nightmares or suicidal thoughts after that, so he’s ok. Also he’s obsessed with Heartman to the point you wonder if he’s got a crush on him, belittles himself and his work constantly, and also thinks saving the world is a waste of time and effort. No no he’s still ok, he swears. But yeah uh. Dude is clearly one small step away from blowing a fuse and going full Demens, we need to sit down and talk about your problems my friend

Will I get something nice if I help them: Not really.

Opinion while playing: I like him but he worries me a lot and I’m a bit scared for him 7/10

The Paleontologist

Shelter placement: In a little valley in the mountains, where grass and snow meet, miles away from civilisation and roads, but also miles away from problems. If there wasn’t this pit full of toxic gas literally next door, this would be perfect. 8/10

Prepper: Likes to complain about everything and everyone. A bit rude but more in a familiar way than an unpleasant way. Extremely passionate about fossils and prehistoric stuff and gets super excited about ammonites in particular. Mentions exploring a place full of toxic gas without any kind of protection just to fetch some neat rocks once, so we both clearly have the same level of survival instincts when our special interests are involved.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Not really, unless you count level 2 Hematic Grenades

Opinion while playing: Relatable as shit. I feel like I’d be this guy if I existed in this game’s world. 9/10

The Veteran Porter

Shelter placement: Nowhere Man lives on a very abrupt slope full of rocks in the middle of Nowhereburg, Nowhere State, Nowherica. You get the feeling he knows the region like the back of his hand and picked that spot exactly for that reason and frankly, I have to respect that. 7/10

Prepper: Ex-Porter with a damaged spine. A retired adventurer, exhausted after carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Higgs used to be his boss back when he was still working at Fragile Express so the dude has massive trust issues now and I won’t argue with that. Initially suspicious of us and Bridges, for good reasons. Every time I found a super isolated bunker signed under Fragile Express I was like “woah their employees were hardcore to find all these places that Bridges couldn’t find”, and he’s one of these guys, and I get it now. And he’s tired. So tired. A whole mood.

Will I get something nice if I help them: Not really.

Opinion while playing: Unlike the First Prepper I respect the shit out of him and I want him to enjoy his well-earned retirement 8/10

ER Appreciation Week Day 7: Free Space

This is based off of something Annie tells Susan during one of their very first conversations in the “matriarchs” AU, which takes places approximately twenty-three years before this scene does. (More notes at the bottom.)

Unboxing

r/wholesome posted fourteen hours ago

After 29 years, my sister finally has a doll like her

[Transcript: A group of people are sitting around a dining room table. They have just eaten dinner. The camera is focused on a White woman with freckles and red hair sitting at the end of the table just to the camerperson’s right. There are two wrapped gifts in front of her, one large and one small.

Young woman: - get two presents. You must really like me. [Glances at the camera, does double take] Are you recording this?

Sister #1 who is behind camera (off-screen): Maybe

Mom #1 (off-screen): You have to open the one on the bottom first.

The young woman unwraps the gift. It is a long rectangular brown box with the remnants of Amazon tape on it. The woman opens it and looks confused. She pulls out a Felicity Merriman American Girl doll. The doll has red hair, which is in two braids, and is wearing a 1700s green dress.

Young woman: My Felicity doll? Uh… thanks? But I don’t know if it counts as a gift if I already own it. Not to mention I’m pretty sure that I asked for her for my ninth birthday, not my twenty-ninth birthday.

Mom #2 (off-screen): We found her in the basement when we were cleaning last month.

Mom #1 (off-screen): And given how long you begged us to get her for you, you’re taking her home with you.

Sister #2 (partially off-screen): Plus you need her so you understand the second part.

The young woman glances back at the camera, her brow furrowed in confusion. She rolls her eyes.

Young woman: You are recording this, aren’t you?

Sister #1 (off-screen): Yes, I am. Now open your box.

Young woman: [glancing at camera out of the corner of her eye] Should I do an unboxing video? Like an American Girl unboxing video? [Beat] Should I greet YouTube first?

Mom #1 (off-screen): Annalise, just open it.

Young woman: Alright, alright. [muttering] Just ruin my fun.

The young woman unwraps the gift. The camera can’t see what it is, but once she sees what it is, she looks like she’s going to cry. Her hand flies to her mouth. She looks down at it and then up at her moms off-screen and then back down.

Sister #1 (off-screen): [softly but happily] What’d you get, Annie? Annie, what’d you get?

Younger woman: [through tears] It’s-it’s-it’s… crutches. For… For the...

The young woman’s words are cut off as she is crying now. She picks up the gift with shaky hands and then holds it up to the camera. It is an American Girl accessory box with a wide maroon border and blue and pink stars. Through the clear plastic in the front, you can see two doll-sized forearm crutches with light blue bodies and gray cuffs.

Mom #1 (off-screen): [Also clearly crying] We never stopped looking for them. As-as far as we can tell, Barbie still doesn’t make them. But we saw those in the window when we were walking down the Mile and we… we had to get them.

The young woman nods. She’s still crying.

Sister #2 (off-screen): Come on, Annie. Open them up. Put them on her! The young woman nods and wipes at her eyes. She stands the Felicity doll up on the table in front of her. She opens the accessory box and puts the crutches on the doll, but as soon as she does, she starts crying even harder. You can see Mom #1 pass through the shot behind her and then wrap her arms around the young woman from behind.

Young woman: [through her sobs] She… she looks… She looks like me. The young woman continues to cry but it’s happy tears. A couple seconds pass and she reaches out to the doll. She shakily turns it towards the camera.

End transcript]

EDIT: WOW!!! When I posted this here (with Annie’s permission), we did not think that it would get so popular. Thank you all for your positive comments. In our opinion, these are the kind of videos about disability we should be seeing on r/wholesome instead of inspiration porn-type stuff fueled by ableism and “overcoming your disability.”

That being said, we want to reiterate that, while this is heartwarming, it only proves why representation matters!!! It shouldn’t take until someone turns 29 to have a doll or a character or even leaders that look like them. Kids (and grownups too!) of all colors, genders, sexualities, abilities, religions, etc., deserve to see themselves in toys and media. Shout out to American Girl for always having a lot of diversity in their dolls and books, so that kids can learn about different backgrounds and experiences in age-friendly ways.

After this video was filmed, we went down to the basement to dig out our other American Girl stuff. Apparently our moms still had my doll (Kit) and our younger sister’s doll (Molly) too, as well as all the stuff we had for them. We had a lot of fun for the rest of the afternoon playing with them for the first time in probably ten to fifteen years.

Thank you all again for your kind words! When I told Annie how popular this had gotten and that I was going to write an edit note, she insisted that I also share the picture she sent to me later that day.

[Picture ID: Annie, the young woman from the video, stands in her living room with her Felicity doll. Felicity is wearing an American Girl soccer uniform with a white jersey, purple shorts, and pink socks. She has her forearm crutches on. Annie is wearing her purple Northwestern University women’s soccer uniform with purple jersey, shorts, and socks. She is using one yellow and black forearm crutch in her right hand. A matching one hangs from her left arm as she holds up Felicity to the camera. Annie is smiling broadly with excitement.]

This was borne out of two things: 1) The headcanon knowledge that Kerry Weaver would never stop searching for doll crutches for Annie even long after Annie got too old to play with the dolls, and 2) My being tired of ‘heartwarming’ viral videos about disability that are really just ableist. In my opinion, something like this would actually be heartwarming, while also actively calling out the ableism that makes something like this take over twenty years. Like ‘this is nice and shows we live in a different world, but also why did it take this long for this to happen?’ I feel like that’s definitely something Kerry would point out and it would be something she would teach her children to do as well (and not just about ability).

#kerry weaver learns the meaning of 'privilege' and 'intersectionality' and proceeds to never shut up about them ever again #that's 100% canon and if you don't think so you can fight me #eraw20 #kerry weaver #susan lewis #nbc er #matriarchs au #annie levin #suzie lewis #charlie lewis
