#i think he'd be a dope teacher

[creature-wizard]

Mike Warnke claims that his path to redemption lay in... joining the Navy.

He claims that he isn't even fully detoxed from all the drugs he was doing before going to boot camp, where he met a couple of Christian guys and read the Bible owned by one of them, decided to accept Christ, and that this cured his Being An Asshole problem.

He claims that the Satanists realized that they made a mistake in kicking him out, and try to pull him back into the cult, but he's Christian now so that's not happening.

He claims that he met a nice Christian girl and got engaged, and apparently studied medicine under the Navy. Eventually he gets married, and continues to be bothered by Satanists and demons. Mike and his new wife Sue pray the demonic attacks away.

He says that he met Pastor Tim LaHaye, who allegedly claims to have been attacked by witches. (Which... hardly a tragedy if true, lol.) LaHaye, he also claims, gives him the straight dope about the Illuminati:

“That’s because it’s a top-secret organization, Mike. But I've done quite a bit of research. The Illuminati was started May 1, 1776, and the word itself means ‘Holders of the Light.’ In this case, it’s a Satanic light. Members think they alone have the wisdom to run the world. It’s really only the continuation ” I shook my head. “I never did find out much of a Satanic organization that has been in existence since — about 1100 a.d. Oh, under various names, of course.”

Cornerstone Magazine interviewed LaHaye, who confirmed that Warnke misrepresented the conversation they had. While Warnke claims that he first heard the word among Satanists, LaHaye believes that he'd never heard of it before meeting him. As for what the Illuminati actually is... the Encyclopedia Britannica article isn't a bad intro. Suffice it to say that the Bavarian Illuminati had some crappy ideas, but "Satanic" in the sense that Warnke describes it was not, and literally all of this shit about it performing blood sacrifices to Satan is carried over from witch hysteria and antisemitism - if it isn't just that upright.

Anyway, remember what I said about the Satanic cult stuff being a twisted power fantasy? Well, we can see Warnke shifting over to a new power fantasy:

I had had the feeling for a long time that Sue and I had not learned how to pray effectively, that we lacked “prayer power,” and that there were ways of prayer that could really defeat Satan in a big way—enough to put him down for the full count instead of having him get up off the canvas and come back at us with some new Satanic twist. I thought there must be a higher-powered prayer life than what we knew of yet.

...

Charles Lemmox was the pastor, and he was glad to hear that Sue and I might be interested in teaching a Sunday school class. But I was hesitant to accept.”

“Let Sue and me pray about it,” I told Helen. “I think you should know a little more about us before you have me teaching Sunday school. Why don’t you drop by and see us sometime this week?”

On the way home, Sue seemed quiet. Then, just before we got in the door, she opened up. “Mike, why were you so enthusiastic about teaching Sunday school at first, then got all shook up about it?” She put her Bible on the table and sat down.

“Well, I just thought we ought to pray about it, first. I also think Helen should know about my witchcraft experiences and all that junk before—”

“How can you say that? You've accepted the Lord! Your sins are washed away. Jesus died for you. After all you’ve been through, you'd be a better teacher than a lot of goody-goodies that go around proclaiming how perfect they are!” Sue’s eyes flashed, and I knew I had lost that argument already.

Warnke writes Helen saying that they need people who've been through his experiences to talk to kids these days, because kids can see through phonies, which... real ironic there, Warnke.

He also claims that Helen taught him how to empower his prayers by invoking the Blood of Christ and Jesus's suffering. The prayer she allegedly suggests is this:

Lord I ask for the power of Jesus to save me from this—name what the oppression is—and to help me with the problem I’m going through. I claim the protection of Jesus’ Blood and the power of His resurrection to rebuke Satan, right now, in the name of Jesus!

These seem like strange things to invoke to me, because Jesus's blood isn't supposed to be protective; it's supposed to be cleansing. (Isn't it the Holy Ghost that's supposed to be protective?) And what does the Resurrection have to do with rebuking? (Isn't that what Jesus's royal authority is supposed to be for?) Like, you cannot convince me that this is some sort of major power upgrade.

[that-was-anticlimactic]

okay i have one for you… top 3 sk8 characters (not enough characters for a top 5 i think…) that you would ask to teach you how to skateboard?

HI OMG OKAY SO I THOUGHT ABOUT THIS AND AM PRETTY SOLID WITH MY ANSWERS

reki - okay is this a surprise? we all know that i am completely biased BUT i did attempt to put the bias aside a little bit so here's why: it is obvious that reki cares about what he's talking about and teaching, therefore, i'll be more invested. not only that, but he's an AMAZING teacher and not only does he know the ins and outs of skating, but the ins and outs of the BOARD. this kid knows Exactly what he's doing and probably the Most about skating out of like. literally everyone in the show. plus, he wouldn't make me feel bad for messing up or learning slowly because i am. a Slow learner lol

joe - okay is this partially because he has a nice, calm voice and i know he wouldn't yell at me unless i was far away and he needed to yell therefore i wouldn't get panicked? partially. look, joe is the kind of guy that i would ask to do my driving hours with instead of my parents, you know? and he doesn't focus on being "good", which is important to me!

oka - this may be an odd one, i really thought about who to put as third, but i feel this in my gut. like reki, he Knows boards better than anyone else. he Knows skateboarding or he wouldn't own dope sketch or be invited to s or be successful. plus, he'd make it enjoyable and i feel like it would probably be most relaxed with him and he would share stories of the times he messed up and stuff to make me feel better and. y eah oiuygyuioiuyg

see, i Almost put cherry, but the thing that made me Not do it is that cherry is a very calculated skater, therefore math and science and stuff is important to him and. well. i am an eng major for a reason. i feel like i jus wouldn't understand because my brain simply doesn't function that way, but cherry's very much so Does, so we would be stuck. plus, love him, but i feel like he'd accidentally make me cry lol like he would be the parents i leave because they stressed me out while driving

miya would be fun, but i feel like they would make me cry slightly intentionally ("slightly" because i don't think they thought i would Actually cry, they just wanted to push my buttons) and they would insult me too much and then i would fall apart because i would feel worthless (this makes it sound that i don't like miya, but i feel like miya shows affection by teasing and i would take it seriously, especially since i wouldn't be Good at skating lol)

then. langa. sweet langa. he wouldn't know How to explain it. i feel like he knows how to Do it, but he could never put it into words unless he's with something who learns similarly to him (i.e. rainbow dash kind of), so he would struggle to communicate and i would struggle to understand because also i am. dense. poiuhgyvhjokijhg

then see, with shadow, there's shadow and hiromi. shadow would scare me and would prolly be a little too intense, and hiromi would probably deny that skateboarding exists

[puppypeter]

Everyone that follows me knows I tend to see prompts in every single thing around me and online so I thought I'd put together all the articles/pics/tweets/videos I've saved that made me go 'Imagine that but Stucky'

Dog Who Works At Laundromat Can't Stop Taking Naps On All The Machines

I don't know why I have a thing for laudromats aus but imagine store owner Steve with his big doggo and Bucky trying to do his wash but feeling like someone is staring at him...

Cap!Steve/Modern!Bucky au. Steve not really having dated before and being a little bit over the top (or what others would consider a bit too much) when it comes to trying to impress his date. But Bucky just loves him already. He can see it's all coming from the heart, that Steve is a giant awkward softie who somehow thinks he needs to try so hard to impress him. (Yes, we know that's not how Steve usually is but some of us like to read AUs with big dumb blushy virgin idiot Steve... leave us alone!! ahah). Also those trays are dope!

The hot veterinarian steve au!! For more ideas just follow the guy in the picture @andresantosvet on instagram (x)

vs Bucky as a veterinarian! 🥺 (video here)

Enemies to lovers neighbours AU! This is totally grumpy Bucky's sign who has had enough of Steve very early and very varied workouts (and of all his moaning which he definitely... doesn't.. like....)

I don't even need to explain this one, do I? We all know who that is. I love the idea of big beefy steve with a baby just because he'd be a giant carrying a tiny bundle but at the same time I can picture pre-serum steve doing this too. But who is bucky? Does he work at the gallery? Is he there with friends? Is he the author of a painting the baby just started crying at?

I think everyone has seen the video (x) but the kid takes his cap off for all the princesses. So single dad Steve taking his son to Disney World/land and he does this but to everyone, including the princes and one of them is Bucky! (or the other way around tbh, they both have the prince charming looks)

I guess this can be the sequel to the previous one? ahah this is too adorable!!

Bringing this one back because why not? Pre-serum Steve out with big sweet polite doggo Lulabelle meets big beefy Bucky who has this tiny ass but loud af bark at everything chihuahua. Somehow their dogs seem to be their opposites, but very similar to the other lol

Also:

- I'm not going to repost but every time I see the comics by Strange Planet I can picture Steve and Bucky in the 21st century (I know that's not how they talk and they're a lot smarter but I feel they would do something like that on purpose to mess with the others)

- Stucky's daughter being over the top or teacher/parent au based on this

- Maybe I've been watching too many episodes of Superstore (plus a bunch of retail related memes and tiktoks like this one) but would love a customr service stucky au. I think they'd be brutal, the sassiness that would come out at all the Karens...

PS: I don't actually expect anyone to write any of these (even when I call them prompts or say I would love to read). I just like sharing ideas I can see Stucky in so that y'all can suffer with me at the overload of cuteness. If anyone has ever any thoughts on these please share them with me, I love to see what other people see x character do in x situation! My inbox is always open!

THE MANY CRUSHES OF LUKE PATTERSON... AND THE ONE THAT STUCK

💌💌💌💌💌💌💌💌

1982

Luke Patterson's first crush ever was Haley Martin. He adored the colour of her hair — like the clementines his mom bought — and the way she finger-painted, enough for his four year old eyes to stare at her in awe.

He watched her make mud pies in the sandbox from the monkey bars, only to ruin them to get a rise out of her. He couldn't understand why she didn't like him the way he did, so he nagged his mom to explain.

"Teasing girls should be fun for them too, sweetheart," she soothed. "This Haley clearly didn't like it."

He blinked. "Huh?"

Her smile stayed warm, similar to hot chocolate and whenever grandpa conjured candies from behind his ear. "Why don't you share your grapes with her tomorrow? I'm sure she'll like that."

His nose scrunched up. "Why?"

"Because it's sweet, Luke."

"I don't get that," he shrugged. "But I'll try."

The next day, he sat beside her during storybook time and that seemed to help a little already. By the time it was lunch, her mood was lifted, which excited him too, and urged him to offer the grapes.

It earned him a featherlight kiss on the cheek.

Luke squeaked in surprise, flushing a firetruck red, to which she giggled and plopped another grape in her mouth.

Three days later, his crush was gone from his mind and he began sharing his grapes with his new friend Reginald instead.

1986

"Can you ask Jessica what she thinks of me?" Luke hurriedly whispered, eyes flickering between Reggie and the girl from across the courtyard.

Normally, Luke Patterson exuded confidence. The resident class clown, always opening his jaw to react to the teacher without raising his hand, catching fights with stupid classmates, sneaking into dad's stationwagon to create mixtapes.

Fearlessness was his freaking middle name. (It was actually Beck, but whatever. He wished it was something cool like Duran Duran though.)

But when it came to girls... he got so nervous. Because they were girls! He didn't understand them! They hated rambunctious boys and only listened to stupid pop music and blabbered about how they stole makeup from their sisters.

Jessica, however, somehow made his heart flutter and his stomach twist up. She just looked cool in her dungarees and she had a pretty smile and she didn't wear that overwhelming, sugary perfume that was now popular.

Reggie snickered, in the way only eight year old boys could. "You liiiiiiike her!"

"No!" He scowled. "I–I'm just curious."

"Sure," he drawled, but then shrugged in agreement, the oversized leather jacket rustling on his shoulders. He stole it from his older brother after he saw him kissing (!!!) some girl and figured it held some magic to impress the ladies with.

"Just do it!"

With a dramatic flourish, the boy left their hiding spot, Luke lurking around the corner of the alcove to watch. Jessica looked up from her hard work of creating friendship bracelets and smiled at Reggie.

Oh, gosh. She was pretty.

A minute later, a sheepish Reg slowly crawled back to him, cheeks red and fiddling with the zipper of his jacket.

Luke grabbed his shoulders, urgent. "What did she say?"

"Uh... well..."

"C'mon, dude!"

Reggie sighed. "She... likes me, buddy. Sorry."

His hopeful face crashed into one of devestation, quickly covering it up with a laugh and a squeeze of the shoulder. Oh, man, what would Steven Tyler do?

"That– that's dope!"

In the end, Reggie and Jessica were boyfriend and girlfriend for a week while he wrote an angry poem about how stupid dungarees were.

Huh... it was surprisingly good.

1988

"Hey, Luke," Gwenn greeted, shy, tucking her hands in her Camp Wacky Rocka hoodie. "I really liked that song you made about your guitar."

Jumping from the tree branch to the ground, Luke dazzled her with an appreciative smile. From above, Reggie and their new friend Alex watched on curiously.

"Thanks!"

Who would've thought that summer camp would be the first time he made a real, girl friend! Gwenn was super cool and she played the saxophone and she liked Joan Jett and her hair was all curly and big and it reminded him of pretty clouds.

Looking over her shoulder, he noticed a gaggle of girls staring at them. Like they were waiting.

Gwenn stared at him. "Can you close your eyes?"

He frowned. "Why?"

"Just 'cause."

Whatever. Maybe she wanted to show him something cool and would stick it in his hand. Complying, he closed his eyes and impatiently waited, bouncing on his heels.

"So?"

Suddenly, he felt a light, warm touch on his mouth and — oh! She was kissing him!

Luke staggered back in surprise, gawking at a blushing Gwenn as she squeaked a sorry and ran back to the now giggling and screeching girls. They ran away like a flock of birds.

It was a dare! His first kiss, stolen by a dare!

His boys jumped down beside him, awed.

Reggie hollered. "You kissed Gwenn!"

"I don't get it," Alex muttered.

Luke's face twisted up in a sour expression. Camp Wacky Rocka should be all about the music and becoming legends and Gwenn ruined it!

He stuck his tongue out. "Whatever. Let's go to the mess hall!"

1989

When Luke turned eleven, he kissed someone for real.

His birthday party was at the arcade, loud chatter and robotic sounds clashing together in an amazing cacophony. His parents hated the place, which is why Luke loved it.

Of the twenty guests, Yasmine clapped the loudest after he finished his song with the boys — Math Is For Losers! — and grabbed his hand as they walked to a duel game.

Luke felt fuckin' giddy the entire time. (Freakin' in front of his parents, fuckin' with friends.) The swoop in his stomach, his cheeks stretched into a wide beam.

Freshly eleven and the king of the arcade, he boldly asked if he could kiss her.

She smiled, her purple headband glittering in the neon lights, and nodded.

It was short and warm and her lips tasted like pink lemonade and sour gummies and it gave him an entirely new buzz. It was exciting.

He kissed her a couple more times the days after, eager and curious, until she claimed she was now only interested in twelve year old boys.

Since Luke now held the record of most kisses between him, Alex and Reggie, he wasn't too bothered by it. They shook hands, complimented each other on the kissing, and that was that.

1992

"Are you or are you not my boyfriend?" Olivia bit, crossing her arms.

Luke sighed, lazy gaze drifting from her to his band waiting by their bikes. Damn, he thought having a girlfriend would be way easier. Why was she so tense?

"I am," he said. "Why do you think I'm not?"

"Because you ignore me, like, all the time!" Pouting, she fiddled with the hem of her tartan skirt. "And now you're going to be with your band!"

He shrugged. "You can come with us and listen, if you want."

Luke met Olivia this year as deskmates in French class. Her raven hair was long and thick and her lips were all shiny from lip gloss and maybe he got a little cocky, thinking he could be dating the hottest girl of freshman year, so he naturally asked her out.

Maybe he should've considered beforehand whether they had anything in common, but he'd always been the overzealous type. And besides... she was a good kisser.

She scoffed. "That's not any better. Whatever. I'll just hang with Tina and Priscilla then. Laters!"

Plopping a kiss on his lips, she turned around and stalked to her whispering friends. Luke puffed, adjusted the beanie and made his way to the boys.

Girls were confusing.

"I bet dating boys is easier," Alex mused. "Like, equally terrifying, but also... easier. I think. Maybe."

Bobby laughed. "How's the girlfriend, Luke?"

"Ha ha," he deadpanned. "Let's go. I got this new song, Crooked Teeth, and it's a fucking banger!"

Olivia broke up with him after Sunset Curve's first, official gig at the arcade with the explanation that he loved music more than her. He never loved her to begin with, so maybe that was the problem.

She made out with Bobby that same night.

Holy shit, man. He supposed that bitter feeling at the sight of them tasted like rock 'n roll, the one thing he actually craved.

What a funny, funny feeling. (He wrote a hell of a lot of songs about it after. He never quite looked at Bobby the same way either.)

1995

"Hey, Maisie." Leaning against the locker beside the girl, he shot her a million dollar smile. "You comin' to our gig tonight? It's at The Orpheum."

Maisie was fucking awesome. Always in short, flowery dresses and fishnet tights and thick eyeliner like a rockstar, always listening to something new on her walkman. She came from a rich family, but that didn't hinder them from becoming friends.

Her jaw fell slack in awe, him instantly gaining more confidence. Ducking his head to meet her eye, he leaned a little closer. He knew damn well what he was doing, and he got a thrill every time it worked.

"Really?" She gasped. "That's awesome! I'll so be there!"

"Sweet," he grinned. "And stay after too."

A brow quirked up, intrigued. "Why?"

He shrugged. "Just 'cause."

"Right," she drawled. "Nothing is 'just because' with you, Luke."

"And that's why you gotta stay," he teased, nudging her shoe with his. "To find out."

If they rocked that gig and he felt like a fucking legend, he hoped it would end with the two of them hooking up. He wasn't interested in dating — having learned his lesson after Olivia — and he knew she wasn't either, but she was fun.

And that was the most important to him: to have fucking fun. Luke Patterson was here for a good time, not a long time.

And if nothing happened between him and Maisie, then he'd still feel like a legend. In a couple of hours, he was going to play at The Orpheum! How gnarly was that?!

2022

Twenty-seven years later, Luke was still seventeen years old. While he preferred to not question the science behind ghostly activities — he flunked physics anyway — he was happy that he froze at this age.

Because Julie was seventeen, too.

And, man. He was madly in love with her.

He loved everything, from the babyhairs curling around her ears, to her voice and compassionate soul, to her beautiful smile, all the way to her cute, doodled sneakers.

Her epic music taste, her snark, the way she always found his gaze, the way she finished his lyrics, the way she always knew what to say to make him feel better.

His heart melted to a flickering candle whenever she hugged him, a raging wildfire erupting between every kiss. He was a fool for her.

"Stop moving," she giggled, one hand coming up to hold his chin.

He grinned, "Sorry, Jules."

Shifting closer, she dabbled more glitter on his cheeks. They were playing at a black-light club tonight, so Julie and Flynn bought all the glow in the dark makeup available at the store for the occasion.

They looked ridiculous in daylight, Julie's weirdly pink lipstick claiming all his attention, but he knew they'd look fucking cool once the lights went down.

"You want to watch a movie after the gig?" she whispered.

Luke rolled his eyes, playful. "You're gonna fall asleep."

"Yeah." With a bashful tilt of the shoulder, she leaned in closer. "But then you'll be with me."

"Julie! How scandalous," he teased, though his chest swelled at the thought of having some alone time, some cuddle time, with Julie.

"So?"

Murmuring a yes, he closed the little distance to kiss her, sealing the deal, only for her to chase after him — an attempt to wipe the lipstick stain off his lips.

"Nah, keep it." A smirk grew. "So the people know."

She tsked. "Idiot."

"You like it."

"I'm still taking it off though, seeing as you're supposed to be a hologram," she pointed out. "But... you can kiss my lipstick away after the show."

He sighed, dreamy. "I love you."

Finishing his glitter and removing the stain, she dazzled him with a satisfied smile. "Love you too."

She rose up from the couch and went to search for Reggie, the boy likely with Carlos. For a moment, Luke was alone in the studio, allowing himself to sink into that warm, fuzzy feeling.

No matter how many blunders he went through with girls — Haley, Jessica, Gwenn, Yasmine, Olivia, Maisie — they all prepared him, in one way or the other, for Julie.

To not only recognise when an awesome girl was standing right in front of him, but also how to treat her — because Julie Molina deserved the fucking world.

Even if that world now included the supernatural.

Whatever. They were all a little crazy.

Winged!Reader

With Aizawa, Shinsou, & Tokoyami

Request: its all good!! i was wonderin if you could do a BNHA headcannon for a reader with wings!! nd for characters i was hoping u could do Aizawa, Shinso and maybe Tokoyami?

Triggers: Large amounts of fluff

Hitoshi Shinsou

💜 This awkward boi- his eye would be caught by your beautiful wings

💜 He'd like to touch your wings during cuddle sessions- cause we all know this boy is a cuddle bug

💜 At first, I imagine him being pretty in different to the wings. Sure, they're dope and make you look like an angel straight from heaven- but I digress.

💜 One of his favorite things to do is caress and fight with your wings during cuddle sessions, just to see your reactions.

💜 If you don't like your wings being messed with, that's fine! He'll understand, and make sure to not do that in the future.

💜 His nickname for you is 1000℅ going to be angel. Cause- we've got to face it- this boy is a closeted simp.

💜 When you first meet him, he'd be very quiet about your quirk. Not wanting to make you uncomfortable by asking. So, he watched from afar.

💜 Once you two become closer, he'd be more comfortable in asking. If you're self-conscious or not like your quirk, he'd be the most understanding out of all the boys on this list. Or probably on any list-

💜 the fact is, he'd be so enraptured and love you no matter what. As long as you accept him, it's smooth sailing.

Shouta Aizawa

🖤 Aizawa would, similarly to Shinsou, be pretty indifferent to the reader having wings

🖤 He'd think it was a interesting quirk. But, he'd be more interested in the reader's personality than quirk.

🖤 Sure, it's nifty for him to ask you to fly someplace to grab him some coffee. And to run his hands through your soft feathers.

🖤 I imagine him liking to bury his face into your wings during cuddle sessions. Being a pro-hero, cuddle sessions aren't often. With being a teacher, on top of his job as a hero. He's oftentimes extremely busy.

🖤 Taking naps while cuddling you is one of his favorite pass times. People would be able to walk into him out cold with his face buried in your wings while he cuddled them. Because, they're warm and comfy.

🖤 If you don't like your wings being touched, or have very sensitive wings, he'd be understanding. If your wings are just sensitive, he'd so use that against you 😏

🖤 Don't worry, not often. Only occasionally. Or when the time is right.

🖤 If you don't like your wings being touched, that's fine. Doesn't stop him from asking you to get him his coffee, saying it's a "flying exercise".

🖤 Overall, your wings aren't what define you in his mind. Your wings are just a perk added to your already amazing personality.

Fumikage Tokoyami

🐧 Unstoppable Duo™

🐧 That's all, goodnight.

🐧 He'd be your eyes and ears, you'd be the wings.

🐧 When you both first meet, it's a bit interesting seeing another person with an animal-like quirk.

🐧 Let alone a bird one. Hense the only other you both know is Hawks.

🐧 Would 100℅ intern under Hawks with Toko. Just saying.

🐧 You guys would be partners, as mentioned earlier, you both would be unstoppable.

🐧 Now, onto the fluff!

🐧 He'd enjoy the thought of not being the only one with a bird type quirk.

🐧He'd also find it enjoyable training, and flying around with you.

🐧 Dark Shadow would LOVE you. They'd both live you to bits, and would call you adorable nicknames.

🐧 Like, Robyn and other bird-based nicknames.

🐧 He'd 100℅ write you flight and sky based poetry to go along with your wings and flying abilities.

🐧 Just imagine- Sitting in his room, or on a park bench, having Toko just reciting a poem to you about how you shine like the sun and are as gorgeous as the blue-bell sky.

🐧 Overall, he'd be a loving boyfriend, and powerful partner. Loving you with his whole emo heart.

Thank you for reading! I will gladly take constructive criticism in the comments!

[tareloin]

In FS world what would their favorite subject be! 😳 Also what does their lunchtime routine look like (do they pack their own lunch, get school lunch, where would they sit, would they eat lunch at all >:D)

Thanks for sending in this ask, Nien! <3

And BOY do I have ideas for this. I love the lunch question btw thank you,,

Word count: 1,018

TL;DR provided below, as always!

=== TL;DR ===

Frey's favorite subject is history, especially about wartime and medieval history.

Allon's favorite subject is English, but it's better to categorize it with creative writing. He likes fantasy and mystery.

Frey usually eats packed lunch with Condor (his teacher and also his dad), but occasionally eats the school lunch by himself. Or with Allon and his friends if he sees them.

Allon brings his own lunch, but still goes through the line for food in case anyone wants anything. He sits with his friends.

=== FAVORITE SUBJECT? ===

This is wholly supported by headcanons so WHEE here we go >8Dc

[ Note: all of this is told from an American's POV even though I know FS is set in Seoul :'D I don't know anything about the Korean education system and I won't even pretend that I do ]

FREY

Frey's favorite subject is probably history. While history can be biased, he tries to get as clear as an image as he can of an event. Mostly out of preference, but also because he believes history is incomplete if only the victors write it. I just feel like he's the guy to really enjoy learning about the development of the world and its people and missing some pieces would just irk him. A lot.

He probably has some degree of preference for wartime history due to his dad (who is Condor. I headcanon that Frey's adopted by him in FS because a father/son relationship between the two of them warms my soul) being a vet. He's heard a lot of positive things about the military as well as the horrific shit his dad has been through, but it doesn't really dissuade Frey much from reading about it.

He also is really, really into medieval history. No reason for this other than me thinking it's funny that he'd be into medieval stuff in a modern AU, but I also think that he likes to see how much things have changed since then. He just really likes seeing the world's development over the years and seeing how things have changed, for the better or for the worse.

Both military and medieval history capture his interest because he really likes weaponry and learning about it and he's like "hell yeah" whenever he learns more. But most importantly, he just really likes learning random, obscure facts. He really likes to learn about the world's mysteries. This is why he and Nairin are close friends in FS :D

ALLON

Real shit? Allon's favorite subject isn't even at all related to his canon job LOL

He really likes English. Moreso creative writing because he wants to be a writer someday. He doesn't like being force-fed books to write analyses on, but he does enjoy reading books. Fantasy usually suits his fancy (mostly because he thinks magic systems are dope as hell, and he's right), but he's always down for a good mystery. He likes to challenge himself, so reading mysteries is always a fun game of "can I figure this out before the book ends". As for fantasy, Allon's more for the cool adventure side. But figuring out a magic system and all other worldbuilding stuff for fantasy is why he loves writing so much.

There's not really a deep reason for Allon liking writing, but I do imagine that his parents (whatever they are) expect him to follow in their footsteps. But since obligatory lineage BS isn't as strong on Earth, Allon's free to do whatever he wants. He still has his eyes on whatever his parents suggest in case his writer career falls through, though. Fuck, he might even get into journalism. (He probably won't, though.)

=== LUNCHTIME ROUTINE ===

FREY

Usually, he eats with Condor since Condor's a teacher (coach, more specifically). But it's not in like a teacher's lounge or anything, Condor literally just yells at him to come outside and sit on a bench and they just have father-son bonding time. It's cute :] Condor makes a lot of food for himself but he shares with Frey when they sit together. And Condor won't take a no for an answer.

When Frey's sitting alone, he usually just gets a light snack from the cafeteria and a drink to eat while doing whatever. If he's with other people, he'll eat a little more, but it's still not a lot.

For some reason, I've always imagined Frey to be a sort of loner at lunch. By choice, to be fair, but he's never really cared to socialize much. Guy's got his nose too deep into books, or maybe he's just pushing to finish his homework early cause he's got a long afternoon of practice later. But he's willing to talk if you approach him!

Also, if he's just not hungry, he'll skip it altogether. Condor wasn't happy when he found out so that's the main reason why he forces him to sit and eat with him lol. People think it's kinda weird until they're like "oh Condor's his dad"

ALLON

If the school's food sucks: he's bringing his own lunch. If the school's food is good: he's still probably going to bring his own lunch.

Allon's kind of a picky eater so he just avoids the main issue and brings his own lunch in case he doesn't want anything from that day. But he'll still peep the lunch line just in case, 'cause maybe he wants something they got. Plus, sometimes his friends want extra food, and he's usually he one that brings them that extra food.

He usually sits with his friends (Mason and probably some others on his team) inside the cafeteria and they just chat about whatever. He'll flag Frey over if he sees him (he usually doesn't because of Condor) but it's not like he's gonna move seats to sit with him. Unless Frey looks really lonely. But that's never the case.

=== EXTRA SCENARIO ===

Now, here's some indulgent stuff:

I like to imagine Frey and Allon sitting beside each other and sharing their lunch. Maybe they're just chilling outside on a bench and Allon's sitting beside him and is like... "yo, have you eaten? I didn't see you touch anything"

And Frey responds that he's just not hungry. And Allon feels the obligation to feed this poor guy because he feels bad for eating food in front of him. And also because he thinks he needs to eat.

Frey refuses, but after much persuasion (aka just shoving half of his sandwich in his hands) he takes it and eats some. Then they talk about whatever.

I really wanna make talksprite edits for them, man. I really should.

In any case, that's it! Thanks again for asking, Nien :]

[evening-blossoms]

So um. I'm a total idiot and forgot an entire day of my own challenge. I was gonna keep it that way since nobody had noticed but... that day was something I'd wanted to talk about for a while so...

Welcome to the very late and out-of-schedule day 10 of my SGE Challenge

Characters I would rewrite

Buckle down cause oooooh boy do I have shit to say - and because of this I'll be deviating from what I usually do and write a rant post instead! Given I don't want to make a way too long post, I'll simply go over a brief explanation of why they're in the list and what I'd change.

Kei of Foxwood (tw: drugging mention)

So this fucking asshole here apparently will get a redemption arc uh. I Actually already talked about this in this post I submitted but I will go over it again because it was kinda poorly worded imo (especially because it was written by sleep-deprived me at 3am)

Which is poorly driven given it starts with "Oh No! My beloved Rhian is dead, what shall be of me without my dear?". No. A good redemption arc should start with "Fuck I did something terrible and genuinly regret this and want to work on becoming a better person and fixing the mess I've made." Also, seems like Kei's form of redemption will be death and no, he should live with the consequences of what he's done.

Speaking of which - his redemption will also feel like an insult to the readers because seriously? He's way past redemption point for me now. He already was from QFG when he drugged Dot (which was something quite unecessary and Soman used an Extremely complicated and sensitive topic for the sake of shock value - but that's a whole new rabbit hole I'm not jumping into right now). And in ACOT he follows Rhian's orders which include attacking practically defenseless teenagers

So with that in mind, I'd either have Kei die the piece of shit he is or rewrite his arc from QFG in order to make a good redemption. First, erase that part with Dot and find another way to get to the keys. Again, it was an act that can be considered violence against women written down just for shock value. Given we do not have other scenes with Kei (except for the dungeons one), I'll leave it that for QFG.

In ACOT, start on his very first actual scene - the dinner scene. Have him hesitant on following Rhian's orders there, and perhaps hint it goes a bit deeper than hesitance. Then escalate it to him openly challenging Rhian's orders during that moment before the Blessing. The attack on SGE would be the first moment we see a greater act from him - maybe somehow going behind Rhian's back to stop that attack??? His last scene in the book is during the carriage ride with Sophie - when Kei tells her he's been going behind Rhian's back to stop the attacks he was able to, and knew he had to fix he'd made when he locked Tedros in the dungeons back in QFG. He agrees to help her somehow - but it goes terribly wrong when Japeth survives.

I myself still need to see a bit more how that could be well executed but that's the basic idea - have Kei's actions start from much earlier and have doing the right thing as motivation, not his love for Rhian - if anything, that should be a source of struggle.

Hort of Bloodbrook

This is can be either a rewrite of his own arc or a rewrite of the light he's written in.

He is a Nice Guy tm. Lets not try to pretend he isn't because he is.

He spends the entire first trilogy obssessing over Sophie, and acting entitled to her because he's a guy who's "genuine and truthful" or what so ever. Sure, Sophie might not be a perfect innocent girl and she did treat people who cared for her like shit at times, but that doesn't change the fact she never liked him. And even though she was wrong in parading him around like a "suitor" when trying to win Tedros' attention, she never again makes mention to liking Hort, or wanting to date him, or what so ever, and honestly, good for her! You should never date someone just because they have feelings for you.

Liking someone doesn't make you entitled to having them, and it doesn't make them obligated to like you back. And this what Hort can't understand. And not to mention he acts pretty sexist during the School Years:

"Every time he was free of rivals for Sophie’s attention, they always returned, more meddling than ever. Why couldn’t these toads mind their own business? Or die like Rafal did? True, he’d had Sophie to himself these past six months, but most of that was spent waiting out her I’m-an-Independent-Woman phase..." Quests for Glory, chapter 9: "Who Would Want a Hort?"

And also later during ACOT, in which he treats Nicola pretty badly

“Not bad enough, whatever it is,” Hort’s voice said, hijacking the demon. “He got us into this mess by fawning over Rhian like a lovedrunk girl.”

“Oh, so being a ‘girl’ is an insult now?” Nicola’s voice ripped, the demon suddenly looking animated in agreement. (A Crystal Of Time, chapter 5: Sophie's Choice)

There are other examples but I don't want to digress so this is how Hort is. I'd like to rewrite him into a person who had a immature crush on a girl and bent over backwards to get her attention - all of this a product of his own insecurity - but that grows out of it and in the process, also into a mature person who's confident in himself.

Also, in case someone doesn't understand: the problem isn't a crush. Having crushes is totally normal and ok, and so is not having them! The problem is when your crush over someone becomes nearly obssessive because of your immaturity and inner problems.

And as I was gonna talk about the light Hort's written in: all of this bullshit, and he's written as the nice underdog who we are supposed to root for. Soman keeps romanticizing him and that kind of behavior and that's terrible. So I'd either change Hort's behavior or write him in the light of what it truly is.

Rhian of Foxwood

Honestly? I liked him as a villain. I have no problem with him believing he was doing Good - in fact, I liked it! It's a good contrast to the previous villains, who knew they were Evil, wanted to be this way and took pride in it.

What I would change are just two things: one is that last kiss scene with Sophie during chapter 25 of ACOT, since it was absolute bullshit after all the shit he did to her which I don't feel the need to list - we all know it.

Second thing, I'd have made him a seer! Soman missed a huge potential when he made Rhian a Sader without giving him the seer abilities. That whole "Third Mysterious Pen" deal was unecessary, and it could be replaced by Rhian's visions.

And guys, come on - EVIL SEER IS A DOPE CONCEPT.

Nicola of Woods Beyond

Don't get me wrong, I love Nicola - and this is kind of why she's in this list, actually.

She's an amazing character - bookworm represent! She's also one of the few poc representation this book has, so I like it went to someone as amazing and smart as Nic. 

So for that I think Nicola should have been explored more. She's usually put as background character and only brought up when it's convenient - she's basically plot device. Which sucks because again, she's awesome. I'd have explored her ability to apply what she learns in stories to real-life issues a bit more, and paired her up with Agatha more times! Both are brilliant girls and I feel Agatha was at times dumbed down so Nicola could solve the problems, and honestly, I hate it when a character is dimmed so the other can shine.

So I'd have put them together - Agatha, experienced and quick-thinker, and Nicola, an extremely smart girl who doesn't really have half the experience Agatha has in the Woods. They both learn from each other - it's a deal of teacher (Agatha) learning from the student (Nicola). 

And allow me to push the Nicphie agenda here - I'd totally expand her relation with Sophie - explored their feelings going from mutual hatred to mutual respect to liking each other to very lesbian love. The Best enemies to lovers.

Also, SOMAN WHAT WAS THAT OF CAVING IN THE SCHOOL FOR EVIL AND SADER TELLING THE DEANS TO ACCEPT HER I DEMAND EXPLANATIONS

And lastly I'd remove the Hicola part super unecessary lmao

So that's it! I actually have some more to talk about but I didn't know how to word it properly and I don't want to make a super long post lmao. I might make a part two of this, but separate for the challenge!

I apologize for the disruption in schedule, I legit forgot day 10 lmao. I'll be doing Day 13 tomorrow so hopefully everything will go back to normal!
