#i've been wanting to draw him properly for forever!!!

[inqua]

babby lucius with the little hat accessory bc it was made for him 🤍

[the-halfling-prince]

Designed a dress I want to make heavily inspired by Merida from brave and then I decided to draw it on Merida.

The original sketch:

[drifting-pieces-blog-blog]

It's not Jake.

I'm going to tackle this bit now. It will forever bother me. I think it will forever be a point of argument in the fandom until the word of god (Diab) comes down and explains it all. Even then, there will always be room for argument.

So let's argue.

Marc with Dr. Harrow. I missed it the first time I watched it. (It was on a small screen with poor sound. I should have turned on the subtitles.)

He doesn't know what's going on. He doesn't know where he is but he feels terrible and he's in a situation he's been in before.

Marc knows how to play the game. He might be bad at social situations, but Marc is stubborn and despite his self destructive tendencies, he's a survivor.

From knowing how to please his mother to keep her happy to knowing how to keep the school happy to keeping his father happy.

He also knows how to keep the doctors happy.

You can see the wheels turning as he figures out what Dr. Harrow is looking for and what the right thing to say is. You see him looking around and taking everything in the room in.

Something he learned in the military and then as a mercenary. What is around him? Know the land. Know the space. Know the tools. Know the exits. Know the enemy.

It's so subtle how his eyes move and stare. Every movement of his body is absolutely still and stiff except his eyes. Don't move. Don't draw attention. Don't give yourself away.

He talks about the talking hippo. Corrects him stubbornly. Like a child correcting a parent that gets their drawing or story wrong.

He talks briefly about Steven. He really doesn't want to discuss Steven with Dr. Harrow. Even now, he's trying to protect Steven.

Honestly, Marc is probably unsettled by how Quiet Steven is being. He can't hear him. He can't feel him. He was reaching for him before in his reflection.

Has this happened before? Are the drugs messing him up? Is this even real? You can see it in his eyes as he is trying to work out what has happened. What if it's real? What if Dr. Harrow is right and all of it was in his head?

But he knows things are off. You see him look at the cane and the sandles. He KNOWS something is wrong, but he can't place it.

And then Dr. Harrow asks about the boy.

Now Marc knows this is wrong. He would never have talked about Randall. This is the last thing he'd ever willingly bring up.

You see him instantly shut down and he's made his decision.

I've seen a LOT of arguments that this is Jake. But I don't think so. We, the audience, have not been properly introduced to Jake and his face has been purposfully hidden from us each time he does flicker in. This is not Jake. Jake is still hidden. And Jake would NOT have tolerated Dr. Harrow.

Even if Dr. Harrow was a new alter (persecutor?) created after being killed, Jake would have put him in his place. As protector and possible Gate Keeper, NONE of what's going on would have been tolerated at all. Jake is organized and patient. Jake takes charge when needed and gets the job done.

This is Marc. This is the Marc Spector that you don't see.

As I mentioned in a previous post, Marc cannot mask in the Duat. Every piece of Marc you see is pure and uncensored.

You see Marc play the game but the second Roro comes up, Marc is done.

This is the Marc that is dangerous (Mercinary, special forces, Marines, skilled beyond reason in combat) and also the Marc that is desperate. He's cornered and he will chew his own leg off to get out.

He doesn't know what's out there, but he knows that Steven is being kept away and he needs him.

So why does Marc grab the sharp pointy pyramid? Why does it look like he's trying to first stab them then stab himself?

Well, up to this point, Marc has figured out that he's been shot. He's found Steven outside of his body in a very unlikely situation, and nothing feels real.

He's also jumping scenes. From being with Dr. Harrow to being with Steven.

A part of him is scared it's real. A part of him is scared it isn't.

If it isn't real, how can he get out of it? Perhaps if he takes more damage he'll go somewhere else. Perhaps he'll go back to Steven. Perhaps he thinks it's a dream and he'll wake up next to Layla.

Look at his face. Beaten up. Broken nose. Heavy bags under his eyes. One pupil even looks larger than the other. Severe bodily trauma. (From getting shot? From getting into fights? From some form of brain damage?)

Now, speaking of Jake... I wonder how much of Teenage Marc was really Teenage Jake trying to keep them safe. I can't imagine their teen years being good at all. There's a good chance that their teenage years were utter misery and things probably escalated to terrible depths.

(Anyone else notice that three times we see Baby Marc, it's his birthday? I'm willing to bet every birthday his mother came for him viciously.)

I'm willing to bet that any previous clash he had with a mental hospital deeply involved Jake. One of them started fights and one of them played the game. Marc would get into fights, but Marc also knows how to play the game thanks to his mother. Jake would have wanted them out of there. He may have fought or he may have tried to take control to keep them safe.

So in this situation, Marc has been separated away from Steven, his emotional support and protection. He has been separated away from his physical protection and stabilizer.

And Jake DOES stabilize Marc. When Marc flies off the handle in a rage. When he has flashbacks. When he gets drunk and trashes a hotel room... Who steps in to settle things down? (JAKE'S FUCKING GLOVES WERE IN THAT HOTEL ROOM ON THE NIGHT STAND AS IF THEY HAD BEEN WORN AND TOSSED ASIDE. JAKE WAS THERE.)

So without all of Marc's safe guards, Marc is sitting there in a terrifying situation and his biggest trauma is brought up by a man that he knows he can't trust.

Look at how the episode starts. The cave. The running water. The screaming boy for help. His mother blaming him. It's all right there. Right on the edge of his mind like a bad flashback.

The last thing he wants is to be back in that cave again. Is to see his brother drowning again.

He's going to fight. If he wasn't so disabled by the drugs and injuries he would have burned the whole building to the ground if he could have.

I do have to wonder, though... Marc keeps going back to Dr. Harrow when things get too stressful there. Like a sort of time out. A time for him to try to process and make sense of things. He breaks down when Steven demands to go back to the room. Total melt down. The time out forces him to deal with it. To see it.

Even Steven goes there when he becomes overwhelmed and needs a time out to see what's really going on.

Dr. Harrow was very interested in speaking to Steven. He even mentions that it had been a long time since he had seen Steven. That Steven was the one that brought them there.

It's doubtful that Jake ever made it there. Dr. Harrow (and the real Harrow) had no idea about Jake. And Marc doesn't know about Jake, as this is Marc's processing time.

But what if Jake had made it there? What if Jake had it all figured out? What if Jake had gotten locked up on purpose?

Steven and Jake, literally compartmentalized by Marc.

Perhaps a Meta for another day.

Mango's the sweetest smell

A/n: Sorry I've been gone forever I've been really busy this past couple of months!

Summary: Miguel's tired of you putting yourself in danger to see him

Pairing: Miguel O'Hara and Gn Reader (romantic, pre-relationship, Miguel being unable to properly express his feelings, a little bittersweet)

“You know you don’t have to put yourself in danger just to see me, right?”

The masked man grunted, slipping through your kitchen window almost with a shadow-like presence.

You jump slightly glancing to see the familiar brooding figure, but that's all he was, familiar.

The corners of your lips curved into an innocent smile as you placed the tattered cardboard box in your arms onto the cluttered kitchen counter, as you turned back to the large man,

crossing your arms as you leaned back against the counter. But it was just that, you were anything but innocent.

That's what Miguel hated.

“What's this now?”

you hummed, cautiously scanning the man in front of you, a softness in your eyes, that filled him with an anxiousness he couldn’t explain. 

Miguel only huffed at your feigned innocence, propping himself up against one of your well polished marble counters,

his eyes drifting across the various items, ranging from empty boxes of food, to pens, dishes, and bills, all mindlessly scattered along the counter tops, it all felt very, you, 

and the strong wiskful scent of mango and blossoms seemed to be rooted in the halls of your weary home, drawing him back to you time and again.

You crouched down, swiftly, opening the cabinet under the sink, only to result in an avalanche of discarded and forgotten items spilling out onto your wooden floor,

with a sigh you begin to collect the objects once again, scooping them into your arms and placing them back into the cabinet. 

A forgotten warmth nipped your cheeks as you noticed the hero on his knees beside you,

shoving the items back into the disarranged box of nonsense you swore you would organize one day. 

“You should really clean your house.” he breathed out 

You divert your attention from the rubble in front of you back to the vigilante squatted down, cleaning your mess,

you shot him an appreciative grin, and Miguel could swear he felt his heart stutter, he muttered soft curses under his breath as he averted his attention to the opened window, the breeze whistling through the crack.  

“Well how else will I see you in your busy schedule if not during ‘work hours’?”

You joked, as you roamed through the crammed cabinet space. Miguel let out a breathy groan as he turned his head back to you.

You could practically feel his scowl behind the mask, burning holes into the side of your head.

“You shouldn’t want to see me, it's dangerous.”

he shifted, his tone mellowed out at your fallen expression, his gaze fell back upon the crowded cityscape through the smudged glass of your window. 

“Maybe I like danger.”

the words floated from your lips effortlessly, a lazy sigh drew from his lips as his shoulders fell.

Yet he still couldn’t bring himself to met your gaze,  he felt rejection  wrapping its cold hands around his throat as he choked out his words

“I wish you didn’t.”

Corpse puppet [Part 14]

sobbing because I'm almost done with this but I don't really mind because that means I can finally draw Cherry, @sketchquill tis a great sorrow

~

After they found cherry and made her apologize to Barnaby (Which she refused to do for thirteen minutes until she was threatened by frank), Wally and (Y/n) stood in the center of the town

"Gather round! Gather round, everybody!" (Y/n) yelled making sure to gain everyone's aattention We've decided to do this thing properly!" Wally said

"So grab what you can and follow us! We're mlving this wedding party upstairs!" (Y/n) exclaimed as the dead citizens began to talk "Upstairs? l didn't know we had an upstairs!"

"Sounds creepy!" "Let's go!" "A wedding, a wedding! We're going to have a wedding"

As wally went over to talk with sally cherry jad walked up to (Y/n) "Hold on, (Y/n)! You can't get married looking like that!" Cherry said

(Y/n) looked at them in confusion as cherry pulled a needle and thread out of her pocket "Sit down" Cherry mumbled which (Y/n) did as cherry fixed the rips and tears in their outfit

"I want you know that if you ever make apple man cry again or hurt him in any way i will steal your soul" cherry told them "Y-yes of course!" (Y/n) said

"Great! Oh I've been waiting to go to your wedding since we were ten!" Cherry exclaimed "what?" They asked "You stuipd and dense" Cherry muttered 

Then it dawned on them "Cherry!" (Y/n) yelled "But how- how did you die?!" They asked which made cherry pulled up the hair on her forehead

There was an X on her forehead "Assination" Cherry told them then put her hair back "What!?" (Y/n) yelled "Who did it?!" They asked "I don't know them personally but it was some blonde chick...i dont know why all I know is they wanted me dead" Cherry mumbled 

"Now I must go get my sewing kid to fix wally's hand" Cherry said before disappearing

"A wedding, we're going to have! A wedding ake is no mistake it must be quite sublime!" Poppy exclaimed as they began to finish up the cake

poppy slapped Sally's hand away as she tried to steal frosting "The perfect cake is hard to miss!" Poppy said as she finished the cake and with Barnaby's help brought the cake outside

"A wedding, a wedding! We're going to have A wedding! Huzzah, huzzah We're going to have a wedding! A wedding! Let's all give out a cheer 'Cause the Groom is getting married today!"

Cherry bit the thread off and tightened it to make sure it wouldn't come off again "There we go" Cherry mumbled 

"One thing you can surely say is we will stand beside Until the end we will defend Our one and only Groom! Our Groom-to-be, our Groom-to-be! Our lovely Corpse Puppet!"

"Huzzah! Hooray! Huzzah! Hooray! Our Groom is getting married today!" "Oh, there he is!" "Here he comes!" "Oh, oh, the Groom is here! he's waited for this day For many a year For this day, for this day! Our hopes and our pride The Groom is here!"

"Here comes the Groom! Here comes the Groom! Here comes the Groom For this day, for this day Will last forever! And all of his friends Will work together To make it the perfect day he's always dreamed of!"

"Our hopes and our pride! Our Groom, our lovely Groom! We're going to have a party Like nobody's ever seen The living in the land above Will not know where they've been The land above!" 

"The party of the Groom! Here comes the Groom On this glorious day of days Up to the land of the living To celebrate!"

The deas citizens began to head up to the land of the living as (Y/n) held wally's Hand and Cherry who was being carried by Sally got hit with a book "CHERRY!" Sally yelled

"That wasn't me!" Cherry replied "IT WAS ME!" José exclaimed as they ran past everyone and threw a book at (Y/n) "OW- HEY! I GET ENOUGH OF THAT FROM CHERRY!" (Y/n) yelled

"Oh, dear" julie mumbled "Quiet down now, everyone!" She said as she tapped a wine glass with a small spoon "Thank you" She said

"Elegant, cultured, radiant, Howdy has found a wife with all these qualities and more Serendipity brought us together and no force on earth could tear us apart"

as julie was making something boring speech everything turned darker and darker...the lighting was now a dark green

.

.

.

.

"There's an eye in me soup" lord piller said as Barnaby approached him "Oh, sorry" Barnaby said as he grabbed his eye out of the soup

As Barnaby put his eye back in every living person stared at him as Cherry appeared onto the table "WHERE THE F!CK AM I?!" She yelled

She saw julie and her eyes widened "You..." she mumbled but julie didn't notice her as everyone began screaming and panicking once more of the dead came....

[gabessquishytum]

just wanted to pop in and say that i've been thinking about that one dick headcanon post you made Forever Ago about thick cock hob and leaky, fat cockhead dream and i've been unreasonably obsessed, truly, with the thought of Dream fucking Hob with just the tip, no prep beforehand Dream having Hob face down ass up so he can see the way Hob's sweet little hole gradually goes from tight, dry and resisting to soft, loose, and absolutely dripping from Dream's copious amount of pre Hob white-knuckling the sheets, flushed and dripping sweat while he chews on the sheets, making these absolutely tortured-sounding groans with every push and pull of Dreams cockhead, trembling all over and cock hanging hot and heavy and dripping between his own legs flinches and nearly comes right on the spot when Dream pulls out with an audible sounding pop to tap and circle his wet cock against Hobs loosened hole, chuckling at the way he can feel it flexing greedily against him

Omggg I remember this post very well!!! And honestly I am,,, very obsessed with the whole "just the tip" concept 🥺

Dream having a cockhead that is just so thick and red and swollen that it stretches Hob’s hole out wide. His pre leaks all the way over Hob’s taint, and it eases the way just a little bit for Dream to push inside. He doesn't push far - just rocks those few inches of his cock into his lover. It shouldn't be particularly satisfying to Dream but the tip of his cock is so sensitive... it just feels SO so good to use the lovely squeeze of Hob’s hole. He knows that Hob probably needs more, but right now all he can do is just twitch his hips back and forth. What a beautiful kind of torture.

Hob can only writhe and squirm and listen to the noises - the little wet noises, the pop of the massive cockhead sliding in and out. He feels so empty inside and he keeps pressing his hand against his belly, like he could somehow tug Dream deeper inside him. He knows that he'll be rewarded eventually and the longer it lasts, the more his own cock throbs and his balls draw up tight. He wonders if he might eventually cum, just from having the first two inches of his hole fucked.

Dream just loves how Hob’s hole adapts for him so well. How it relaxes and slackens, and becomes the perfect place for him to sheath his thick cockhead. He knows that he could do anything he wants and that his beloved would take it all, greedy as always to be the centre of Dream’s attention. Perhaps he'll draw this out properly this time, and see if his sweet Hob really can cum on just tiny fraction of his cock...

[ask--eggman]

Honest questions, Eggman

Have you properly won against sonic before (excluding the incident with infinite)

And are you autistic/ gen

Well, that depends on your definition of "win." When I had a my grip on this world for 6 months, that was by far the closest I've ever gotten to sweet victory. That irritating hedgehog was beaten and imprisoned and I had it all! That's more than enough proof that I absolutely have what it takes, that counts!

It was hilarious seeing how weak and helpless my enemies were without their precious hero Sonic. If they hadn't rescued him, this world would've been forever in my hands! I would've wiped them all out, Sonic would've remained in captivity and then I would've banished him to space after I got to rub my glorious completed empire in his face!

It also proved that they're all inferior against me on their own. They need each other and have to use the embarrassing mushy "power of friendship and teamwork" stuff or the Chaos Emeralds to stand a real chance against me, one man with often nothing but the creations of my own superior genius on my side!

Besides that... No, not yet in terms of really beating him. But I've come very close many times! I've almost blown him up in space, jettisoned him from my fleet in space, crushed him, and made him eat dirt many times! And one day I will succeed and permanently claim my rightful place as this world's mighty ruler!

But having most of the planet at my mercy for that long isn't just some small easy feat to scoff at and exclude, you know! Such a brilliant accomplishment is all the proof I need! I also consider "winning" to be getting to make some of my biggest dreams a reality and I've done that twice with Eggmanland and my Interstellar Amusement Park!

A victory is a victory, no matter how short lived. And one day I'll succeed again and get what I want and next time I will keep it firmly in my gasp, permanently. I only get stronger and smarter with every defeat and it's only a matter of time! The hedgehog's days are numbered and the time for my glorious empire to rise only draws nearer!

Hmm, I don't know. I don't have a diagnosis and I've never really thought about it.

[asktidethegastrodon]

Tide: You are like Two troubled souls meeting in times of needed.. How sweet. . She seems lost in thought for a moment, as if she wanted to say something more, but stops and snaps back to reality. Her gaze softens as she looks back up at the goodra

She giggles a bit Tide: I've been a teacher for a bit now, so I've seen my fair share of children whose parents weren't in the same egg group. It is possible, just tricky to deal with Tide: At least you both have some slug like qualities! I've been told that it can make it somewhat easier due to our.. amebous shape and DNA.. Tide: I do know a scholar back in my hometown, I could ask him if he has any books on the subject, if that might help assist? Tide chuckles a bit, waving her hand to fan her face Tide: No pressure of course! Just figured I would offer in case.

She dips her head in respect to the goodra Tide: Thank you for answering my question, I do hope I wasn't too invasive or brought up any bad memories.. She raises a clenched fist happily, as if she's excited and determined Tide: I'm rootin' for the two of ya! Considering what I've already somewhat seen just from being here for a moment, I can tell you two are great with children. I'm sure your child will be very loved!

She dips her head once more with a smile Tide: But I should probably get out of your hair for now! It seems like you all have stuff to do, I don't wanna gab at you forever and cause any troubles for anyone here! I hope you have a lovely rest of your day!

She waves a goodbye and turns to leave But suddenly she stops for a moment, something catching her eye A familiar face! A pang of awkward nervousness stabs her in the gut. How rude of her to not notice him sooner! Just waltz in and talk to someone else and accidentally ignore him! How terrible of her bad, bad Tide! Unsure on how to properly react given her sudden rising anxiety. She flashes a smile towards Paleo, waving her hand quickly, much like how a excited toddler would Her voice a mild whisper to hopefully not draw any attention to herself, or possibly spook any of the pokemon nearby. She figured most of the pokemon here wouldn't want a suddenly friendly yell from across the grass, so she attempted to keep her tone as quiet as she could.

-Likes cooking with you ,even if you're terrible at it he'll help out! I mean your cooking can't be as bad as Solomon's right? RIGHT!?

-Simeon also doesn't mind PDA and often indulges in small touches like interlocking hands or putting his hands on your face before drawing your face closer to his and eventually your lips connect.. " Alright lovebirds we should get going save your romance for when we get back" Solomon said which caused the 2 of you to quickly pull away from the kiss,Simeon's cheeks now being a slight shade of red " R-right"

-Please let him spoil you cuz he wants to show how much he loves you and how much he cares for you

-Material gifts aren't his only way he expresses his love for you

-He also loves praising you and getting praise from the Devildom's Prince is a tough thing to get

-If you did well on a test he'd say that he's really proud of you and always makes sure you feel good about yourself

-The whole Devildom already knows about the fact you two are dating so he doesn't see the point of hiding his affections in public but only if you're comfortable ,however he saves the more passionate gestures and words in private

-You two would be cuddling on his bed, his hand on your cheek as he looks in your eyes,oh how captivating they are " Do you know you look absolutely stunning" he asks,a smile on his face " Yeah I mean you mention it at least 3 times a day" you giggle,reaching for his face to mimic his gesture " And you are quite beautiful yourself" you said as you close the gap between the two of you.After your lips parted,Diavolo smiles " And those beautiful eyes of your,more beautiful than any rare gem" he kisses your temple "And such pretty lips and forms a smile that never fails to make me feel warm and fuzzy " he says,kissing the corners of your mouth, another compliment and another kiss

-When cuddling, he has his arms wrapped around your body,pulling you in a snug embrace but not too tightly to hurt you since he is award of his strength

-But he also loves being held! Likes it when you play with his hair and kiss his forehead, it's like you've casted a sleeping spell on his and he knows that everytime you kiss his forehead,he will have good dreams

-Kisses are abundant but full of love and passion.He pours his entire love for you in every kiss,each kiss being treated as the last one. He knows that the world can be cruel sometimes so he wants to have every possible happy moment with you.

Hi hello I wanna talk a bit about CD currently but Im not sure if its gonna be too long/negative so I'm gonna put my thoughts under a lid <3

So like. To start off it's really not a secret that I have a lot of trouble when it comes to crafting stories. This has been the case for many years, and will continue to be the case probably forever.

Challenger Deep felt like an exception to this at first, but since starting development on it my life took some turns that made it clear that CD suffers from the same and from different problems

To start with... I started using it as a vehicle for my grief at the start. Talas (especially) and Graves were both used as vehicles for my grief while I was going through stuff the past couple of years, and that inevitably bled through into The Everything.

It's not a bad thing to do this at all mind you (It helped me immensely) but it gave CD a strange foundation for me to build on that now I feel like I am at a major disconnect with, so I would like to build some more foundation around it, so to speak.

I would like to recraft the story (not rewrite it entirely because theres things i rly love, but theres others that I'd like to improve), and a lot of the lore (I feel like I closed my options a bit too much with some of it so I want to make it more expansive too. Part of why I wrote it the way it was was so I could invite friends to make stuff for CD but that did not go over well at all so I think I am going to not do that again). I just havent had the time to work on it properly, and since it's in this state where I feel like I need to "fix" it, I don't feel as passionate about it as last year so at the moment I'm letting it ride and waiting for when I'm excited to work on it again

I would like to add more characters as well and actually do justice writing-wise to the characters that are already in there too.

Also I won't lie, a big part of my investment in CD until recently was my oc ship, with Talas and Hades, and ever since I got into my current relationship I just havent thought much about them at all because I started pretty much actually living all of the shitposts and tropes I'd written and it started making me feel a bit strange to write/draw about that, so I need to fix that as well. See why I feel weird about it and what I can do to stop it and get back to those two

Additionally I've had a redesign of talas and hades' markings in my WIPs for months now. Hades is done, but on Talas' side Im not sure how to add in his bioluminescence pattern because something isnt working for me. I wanted him to be more visibly purble though with said markings. Everything else I really like, its just the glowy pattern (though watch me change the markings anyways bc im an indecesive beast)

Here's a snippet of them:

I wanted them both to have more natural fishy looking markings pretty much

So yeah, that's currently the state of things. I miss it a lot and i rly wanna work on it again proper, maybe now that I've acknowlegded it and made a post about it I will get a second wind like I've gotten before after getting The Gunk out of my chest.

If you read all that thank you I hope you have a swag day <3

Maybe a some continuing hcs of the parent ask with shigaraki, madam red ect with how they are when the baby is is a little older? ( 4-6)

It's certainly been a while since I've written that but I'm exciting since I adore the dynamic of a Yandere having a family with their darling.

Tw: Yandere themes, unhealthy mindset, unhealthy relationship, possessive behavior, overprotective behavior, clinginess, isolation

Parents Part 2: Their child is a bit older

Madam Red

🩺Angelina is as doting and protective as ever with her little daughter, still desperate to make her happy and shower her in love. Her child is a bit more isolated as the lady fears that she might catch all sorts of sicknesses. She’s so young after all, her immune system is still so weak. You argue quite a bit with Angelina about the aspect of her isolating your child quite a bit yet the madam is too paranoid to properly listen. Fine, she’ll make sure to design the huge garden with a swing and a sandbox, that should be enough to satisfy the little girl. Madam Red is proud of how far her daughter has come, from having taken her first steps, having spoken her first word and learning day by day more.

🩺 The drawings her little sunshine has drawn for her parents are always treasured and Angelina adores it when all three of you can just do something together. At the same time there is this nostalgic and sad feeling bubbling up inside of her chest when she sees how much her little baby has grown. Her baby has grown curious, too curious of the people around her and it makes Madam Red jealous. She wants to stay inside the bubble where it is just her daughter, her darling and her forever. She doesn’t want to share the attention and wants to be the most beloved person to her daughter next to you. Grell is kept away at a reasonable distance and Angelina warns the Reaper to act normal around the child since she doesn’t want her to get dragged into any troubles.

🩺Grell is a good bodyguard since she’s strong though so that’s something Angelina keeps in mind. It’s still tradition for her to sing her daughter a lullaby or read her a goodnight story and if it’s possible, she always tries to convince her daughter to sleep with her parents. Since Ciel is the only real family she has left, he’s probably the only person she trusts when it comes to her sweet baby, next to her s/o of course. Even years after knowing her daughter, there is still this awkwardness to Ciel when he is forced to play with the small child. Especially now since she has learned how to walk and talk and constantly wants to play with him when his aunt visits. He puts up with it though since he knows that it makes his aunt happy.

Momo Yaoyorozu

💳Her love for you and her twins stays as strong as ever and by now photos fill the walls of her house and she has plenty of photo albums with special memories, even a couple of small clips. Her children are slowly growing up and it makes Momo proud and emotional all at once. They’re at the age where they might have already their Quirk so if that’s the case she has already arranged certain adjustments for both of them. As lovely as she is, if her twins have Quirks she will make sure that they won’t grow overly arrogant and think they’re better than others. She’d probably end up teaching them how to control their Quirks so they don’t accidentally lose control and will encourage them if they struggle with something. If her children don’t have any superpower that is fine as well.

🩺Both of them are special as they are though she knows that society isn’t exactly too friendly with people without any Quirks. If Momo catches someone making fun of her twins for possessing no Quirk she transform into a lion mother quickly. The type of mother who will instantly try to cheer her babies up if they’re upset about something by trying to get them to take a walk together as a family, by baking together or going for a picnic together. Anything to make them focus on something else. She knows that her daughter and her son are now at the age where they might end up arguing so she always mediates of both of them get into a fight and ends up judging fairly. She’s probably already designed two separate rooms for them though they’re always free to share the third room for them together.

💳Matching outfits for the twins still stay strong and there is even the family look where all of you wear matching pieces. Since they are now at an age where they can remember things, it’s time for the family to travel a bit around. There are two reasons why Momo has so far refused to take her twins on a plane. The first is that both of them were too young in her opinion to already fly around the world and the second one is that she wants her daughter and her son to remember their first major holiday together. Momo’s photo albums are precious to her since she likes to sit down with her s/o and her kids, go through the photos and recall the past and talk with her family about what the story is behind this picture.

Tomura Shigaraki

✋There are good and there are bad things that come with his son growing older. Shigaraki is definitely relieved about the aspect of his child not crying all the time anymore and the aspect of not needing to change the diapers anymore since he can use the toilet by now. On the other hand it becomes a bit more harder to keep him away from other members of the group and Shigaraki starts struggling to come up with excuses whenever his son asks him why him and his other parent are constantly stuck and what his father is exactly doing for a living. You always have to interject and change the subject in order to help Tomura from the uncomfortable situation. Both of you are aware that you can’t keep it a secret from your son forever.

✋Shigaraki simply fears that his son might end up fearing him if he ever finds out the truth about Shigaraki’s Quirk and what he is doing. With the age comes the fear of his son possibly inheriting his Quirk so there are constant visits to a fitting doctor so that a catastrophe can be stopped before it even happens. His son has a lot more energy than he is which is why Shigaraki struggles sometimes even if he tries to be a good father and plays with his son. There are times when he asks Kurogiri to take over for a bit so he can have some time alone with his darling. As much as he adores the child you two made, he misses the times where he could have you all for himself and your attention wasn’t always turned to your kid the moment he stumbled towards you.

✋No one can really deny that the child inherited his clingy tendencies from his father though since he hates being left alone by his parents, he always ends up crying and throws a small tantrum. So he either clings to you or Shigaraki most of the times when you are around. Other members from LOV keep on asking him about his child yet all they get back is a rude snap from him to shut up since he doesn’t want any of them near his baby. He threatens always to turn them into dust if they ever try to locate darling and child down, snaps at Kurogiri for not being able to keep it a better secret though he knows it’s probably his own fault. As soon as he returns from any business, he’s usually greeted first with his son running to him and clinging onto his leg.

Overhaul

🦠Kai doesn’t really concern himself with the aspect of what he will tell his children now that they’re at an age to comprehend things a bit better. He never bothered hiding anything from you and he doesn’t bother hiding anything from his sons either regarding the cruel and inhumane things he does. If they end up being terrified of him that’s fine as long as they don’t start misbehaving and are rude towards their own father. Kai can be rather strict when he sees the need to do so, he has moments where he just turns eerily silent and just grabs both of his twin sons by their collar, drags them towards their shared room and locks them inside for a couple of hours. He only lets them out if they have reflected on their actions and apologize.

🦠There is a weekly medical checkup since Overhaul is paranoid about the aspect of health, especially since children as little as them end up catching everything. He rarely lets one of his men interact with them, Chronostasis might be the sole exception on seldom days. Otherwise he orders everyone to just ignore his sons, he doesn’t want them to interact with the children. If the twins try to run around and talk to someone when they’re let out of their special living area and are forced to wear masks, he always grabs them by their hands with a tight grip and yanks them away. His darling and their children live in a special section of the basement, well guarded and cleaned especially well since Kai despises gems and dirt anywhere near himself or his family.

🦠The aspect of hygiene is so important so he always makes sure that the kids brush their teeth and shower daily and if one of them refuses, he just forces them to clean themselves himself. They usually have a room together but he has a special room where he takes both of them when they are sick and everything inside of their is sanitized to the absolute maximum. Coughing only one time is enough for him to be suspicious already and even if only one shows signs of a sickness, the other one is normally dragged along for safety measurements. Whilst Kai doesn’t let the boys outside very much, he tries to provide them with a variety of other things so they hopefully won’t complain too much.

Inko Midoriya

🟩Similar to Momo, Inko feels very emotional to see her baby girl growing up so fast. She’s so proud of her little girl though and her family is everything to her. She’s even more overjoyed to see how much of a great parent her darling is and how much of a sweet and caring older brother Izuku is. Mother and son most likely cried together when your daughter took her first steps and spoke her first words, the tears just flow out so naturally for both of them as they’re deeply touched and emotional. Inko is great to guide her s/o through everything though if they shouldn’t know how to act and what to do in a certain situation since she has already some experience with Izuku.

🟩Very obviously this woman doesn’t care if her daughter ends up having a Quirk or not, her love isn’t defined by whether she’ll end up having some special power or not. She’ll become more protective though since she knows that people without a Quirk are usually treated like an outsider and she knows how much it affected Izuku back in the days. Izuku himself would be so incredibly protective as well since he won’t tolerate anyone making fun of his sister like this. Inko likes taking walks outside with her family and visiting a park or the closest playground. Your child is at a stage where she takes everything around her in and learns really what the world around her is like. So it’s important to take her out as often as possible so she can experience life with her own five senses. Her big and curious eyes when she asks about something is adorable.

🟩If her daughter ends up wanting to help in the kitchen that is fine though the tasks she’ll be given won’t involve any sharp objects. Inko might be from time to time a bit more clingy since she has been a bit lonely ever since her son enrolled into the U.A. High School so having her darling and their small child is a blessing for her. She likes reading stories to her child. All three of you have put very much importance and care into the design of the room for your daughter to make it as pretty for her as possible. Izuku constantly ends up buying sweets and small and pretty toys for her, he spoils his baby sister a lot.

[venusbby]

ahhh the jhumka post was so cute, i couldn't even study properly bc i've been giggling over it the whole day 😭😭 like omg having them search for their name in ur mehendi, teaching them bollywood dance moves, re-watching classics like DDLG, having pani-puri competitions, having matching kurtas, saying the most cheesiest lines to them in ur mother tongue bc ur just too shy ahhhhhhh this brain-rot is going to kill me

your 🤭 brain 🤭 is so 🤭 smart 🤭 i will eat you (with love) 🤞🤞🤞🤞 this was so fun to think about and write about !!!!!!! aaa i love you anon !!!

anyway, warning: lots of messy thoughts about this under the cut !!

✿⁠ ➝ it's actually so easy for you to put sae's or rin's name in your mehendi, like usually i've heard people put in initials but honestly putting their entire name in is so easy and when you do it, your mehendi wali didi who's drawing his name in will definitely smirk at you like "kaun hai ye, hmmm?" [translation: who is this, hmmm?]

and when you finally do it and ask sae to find it (you didn't say his name was in ur mehendi, but just told him that there's a surprise thing he should try and find) he'll be so confused— but at the same time he finds this very interesting so he'll just take your hands and let his eyes wander over your palms with a blank expression. it takes him a few minutes because the way it's written is so small, but when he does find it, he's gonna give you the most incredulous look ever followed by a light shrug to play off the fact that his heart is beating really fast !!! ♡

"cute. i don't get why you did that, though."

"because i love you, sae." you huffed, rolling your eyes. "maybe i should replace it with somebody else's name if you don't get why i—"

"don't be stupid," he cuts you off with his low voice, before kissing the exact same spot on your palm where his name is as you caress his cheek right after. "only my name."

same goes for rin, except he's so much more flustered than his brother is !!!! the poor boy will take quite a lot of time to find the "surprise" you were talking about, because obviously he knows nothing about mehendi and you really just told him to go in blind— you'd have to show him yourself. when you do, he'll kinda go stiff at first as he reads the three letters of his name, and then look up at you with this adorable expression that makes your heart race.

"....that's my name." he says, a confused yet surprised tone to his voice as he looks at you with slightly wide eyes.

"yup," you giggle, continuing to point at the tiny writing on your palm as you stare at him with loving eyes. he bites his lower lip gently, running his fingertip over the skin. "people usually hide their lover's name in their mehendi and i wanted to do it with yours." you explain softly.

his reaction is too cute. the way he can't find anything to say in response to this is enough to satisfy you and make you feel happy. "i like that. does it, like, stay forever?"

"no, baby." you laugh. "mehendi goes away in days. it depends."

"oh, okay," he nods. "makes sense, but i kinda want it to stay there forever. can you get it done again or something?" his eyes shine with admiration as he asks with a slightly smug expression. he likes the idea of his name on your skin a little too much, it seems.

✿⁠ ➝ also, teaching reo bollywood dance moves ?!? yes. he surprisingly has— makes time for it. he's all in. will definitely be a tease about it, though— especially when you're teaching him how to 'thumka' jsnshdbsjd im blushing like hell rn. he will definitely stare at you with some type of look when you do it— and he might even feel tempted to just hold your waist as you show him the move. (he probably gives in to the temptation very quickly, reo can't really control his hands that well).

"damn, i didn't know you were that good with your hips—"

"reo!"

✿⁠ ➝ having pani puri competitions with rin?!?!?? he would get the spiciest one and 100% tease you if you ask for sweet or medium !!!!! he will find it hot if you have a high spice tolerance i think ;) also if you're eating pani puri in general, he'd be the type to eat like two from his plate and tell the pani puri guy to give the rest to you :( ALSOOOOO oh my god. if the pani puri water drips down your chin (it's happened to me before don't judge) he would already be wiping it off for you. also he will move away annoying strands of hair that are interrupting your pani puri session. (kinda gives me easily annoyed gf and chill bf vibes) has the guy give you a sukhi puri before you can even ask !!!!!!! ⁠♡ and if you want to go eat golas right after, he's all for it !!!! you have to guide him w the flavours though, telling him like "ok we hate this flavor but this other flavor is our bestie." and he's gonna nod and try whichever one you like the most. (my bestie is kala khatta HEHE)

✿⁠ ➝ ALSO DHWNJDSKKDMF i would DEFINITELY say some things to sae in hindi. because i am shy, and also because he's so fucking intimidating that honestly i don't want to compliment him to his face. whatever you say, he'll be like "what?" because obviously he doesn't understand and after a while as you continue to speak to him and compliment him in hindi with your shy smile, he gets super super super irritated because he can't understand and he wants to know what you're saying about him so bad. he wants to hear your compliments. your voice is so sweet and soft and the way you look at him as you talk in your language makes him feel things— he wants to know !!! he would remember some words and search them up later to piece it together (but instead of making the guy do so much work, just translate, pls) when he finally gets to know some of the things you said to him in hindi, he'll have to look away to stop himself from kissing you ♡

[anashins]

Hi mina. How about a fic with Jaehyun as prince charming? I can't get rid the image of jaehyun as disney prince ever since his A Whole New World Performance so if you could come up with a short scenario with him as a prince I would be delighted 😍

Pairing: Jaehyun x You

Genre: royalty au, dark romance, enemies to lovers, angst, drama

Word Count: 1k

A/N: I'm so sorry, somehow, this has become something entirely else after I've finished The Wicked King last night... I still hope you like it, anon 🥺💝

What do you feel the moment you know you’re about to die? 

Prince Jaehyun hadn’t known until now.

“I bow to no one,” you said and remained on your feet while everyone else had fallen to their knees. Fire was in your eyes, the rage of all your realms’ annihilated souls burning behind your fierce gaze. You were the only one left, and if you were about to go down, you would take the prince responsible for the extinction of your people with you.

They had been in the middle of a festive ball - a macabre celebration amidst a time of war, but you hadn’t expected anything else from a prince everyone deemed charming but you knew was cruel and wicked behind his deceiving looks. You had once gotten fooled too.

“Even if you’re a princess, you have to bow,” the seneschal commanded you, but all he got as a response was a hiss and the sound of your drawing sword as you pulled it out of the sheath. 

He stumbled backwards, and so did everyone else. Only the prince himself remained on his throne, his delicate golden crown sitting on his head atop his dark hair, in a crooked position from all the dancing he had done throughout the night to celebrate his last victory. Nobody wasted a single thought on all the folks who had lost their lives along the way.

You had come to avenge them all. You had wandered days throughout the woods, traversed the desert and crossed the ocean in the past weeks to let it all come to an end here.

“My, my.” Prince Jaehyun then arose, snipping with his fingers. “Why did the party suddenly stop? Play the music, start dancing again! This is a celebration after all!”

Despite the ball getting interrupted by your vengeful existence, with the prince’s command, everyone started to realize that you might not be so dangerous after all and reluctantly, but eventually, the guests started to pick up where they had left off. And amidst the celebrating and dancing crowd, stood you, not breaking eye contact with the prince.

He descended from the throne and took the steps down to you until you stood in front of each other. Your sword was still drawn, but your arms were too weak to point the weapon at him, your body too exhausted from the long journey. Soon, you were able to finally rest, forever. 

Prince Jaehyun stretched out his hand to you. “Dance with me, princess.”

You stared at each other, long, but you didn’t make a move. 

“Dance with me, and I will tell you everything I know. I promise to you, I won’t hurt you.”

At least that, you owed your deceased folk. They deserved the truth, even if you would only be able to tell in the after life. So you put your sword back into its sheath and let Prince Jaehyun step closer to you. 

His soft and warm hand enclosed around your wounded and bruised fingers, the other resting on the side of your waist. Your dress was dirty and torn from the long journey, but he didn’t mind touching you in the appropriate places. Even not properly dressed for festive activities, his eyes only remained on you as you two started dancing.

“So? What’s the truth? Tell me if it’s worth everything before I slit your throat.”

You wanted to get over this as fast as possible, but for a long while, Prince Jaehyun didn’t say a word. The only thing he did was to dance with you and to look at you, and even though it was supposed to make you uncomfortable all over, it did no such thing. 

For the first time in a long while, after fighting your way through here and spending every night outside in the cold, you felt warmth.

“Remember when we were children, long before you got married off to that new realm of yours, I promised to never lie to you?”

“We both know we were different people back then,” you cleared up. 

Too much had happened between you two ever since you went to the same school in this realm together. Too much time had passed since those sunny afternoons in the tower where life had still been perfect and your souls free from more responsibility than you could carry. Now, you were both too tainted to go back to that time, too much blood on your both’s hands.

“That’s not true,” he contradicted and suddenly stopped moving to the rhythm.

You were taken by surprise as you were to motion further, but he grabbed you by your hands and spun you back into his arms where he pressed you against his body. You couldn’t wind out of his grip. At this point, you didn’t even know whether you intended to at all or if it was all in your head. You were too fixated on his face that didn’t seem cruel or wicked anymore. His expression had totally softened, and for once, he let slip that perhaps, the young boy from back there was still here with you.

Too bad the girl from his childhood had died a long time ago inside of you.

You cupped Prince Jaehyun’s face and pulled him down to you, pressing your lips on his. Only a gentle touch, the bare minimum, nothing more was needed. Yet, your lips remained together for much longer and neither of you made the first move to pull away. Especially not you, as you wanted to stay in this warmth just for a bit more.

But the longer you remained together, the more dangerous it was for you. 

“The truth about this war is,” Prince Jaehyun began as he pulled away, his lips purple, just like yours, “that there is no real truth behind it.”

For the first time, Prince Jaehyun broke his promise. He had lied. There was truth to it that he wouldn’t let you in on, but now it was too late. He had decided otherwise. If you were to go down, he would go with you.

What do you feel the moment you know you’re about to die?

Prince Jaehyun felt love as he tasted the poison on his lips.

hello

I've been writing since forever. It's the only way I can express myself. When I was about 5 years old and didn’t know how to write, I once took a piece of paper and a pencil and took it to my mother, and I asked her to write down my memoirs like Emília from Sítio do Pica Pau Amarelo (a Brazillian TV show for kids). ''What memories do you have, you're only 5 years old'' was the answer I heard. I think I just wanted to record my life. I needed to write some things down before I forgot what I was thinking about.

so, ever since I learned to write, I have had my diaries and filled them with my anguish. When I was a teenager, I used to write on tumblr, because I was afraid my mother would read my diary (I caught her doing that once, but that's a topic for another day). I love to reread what I was feeling at a certain time in my life. the other day I was reading about how I was suffering from crush on a guy at school, more or less in 2015, and today I don't even remember who that guy was. I don't even remember his name, much less his face. funny how things work. will it be that 10 years from now I'll read in my diary about how I'm grieving for my breakup with my most current ex, and think ''wow, how silly of me, I don't even remember him properly''? I really hope so. because now it seems that this pain will never go away.

but anyway. about me and my writing. I am that person who avoids conflicts as much as possible. I don't know how to talk when it's time to fight, I don't know how to think under pressure, I don't like to talk. if someone yells at me, I cry. I decided to go for the academic route at university precisely for that reason. I like to research and write my findings. if you don't agree, you can write an article refuting me. if I find it pertinent, I write another reply. no face to face, no clash.

and I love to read. my favorite genres are fantasy and romance. 95% of what I read is fiction. I love living other people's lives, falling in love with vampires and fighting epic battles - things I wouldn't have the courage to experience in my real life. it hasn't been long since this desire arose, but I started wanting to write myself. create my own stories and perhaps support someone like my favorite authors support me. but I still don't feel ready for that. I think I still need to grow a lot with my writing. I'm insecure, and I'm afraid of finishing a project like this and not feeling comfortable with the end result - I think I also end up being too much of a perfectionist sometimes.

I'm also not a very creative person in the artistic sense of the word. I don't know how to play any instruments, or draw, or cut paper and create collages. no matter how hard I tried, and took classes in all sorts of activities, my brief dreams of being an architect or fashion designer or actress/singer were always just that: brief and dreams. but with writing it is not like that. I don't need fancy and specific materials, nor a gigantic idea right from the start; I can control and write little by little; I can go back to the beginning and change something without it compromising too much of the rest of the text.

that's why I'm here! I think writing these texts reflecting on my life is a good way to start this writing career - also because this is not my career, so unfortunately I'm not fully dedicated to writing and I have bills to pay…. and anonymity is also something that comforts me. for now, the only way for me to publish anything and not throw up with anxiety of people I know reading it, is under a pseudonym. I'm not ready for people to know me personally, and I'm afraid of possible confrontations for the truths I intend to write about.

in short: I haven't revolutionized anything yet, I haven't had any brilliant ideas to save the world, I haven't even figured out how to deal with my own insignificant problems. but I hope to find all of that. and also to find someone to talk about life.

yours sincerely,

standard girl

[xarva]

Why do you dislike Luzy x Max? I do aswell lol.

Thanks for the question OP!

in short my reasons are:

- the distortion of Lucys characterisation

- Max misogynistic behavior (which can tbh said about most dha characters to be fair)

- the forced way their relationship starts

- Their lacking chemistry, for one due to Luzys obvious queerness (unintended by the writers but still undeniable), but imo even Charlotte and Max had better chemistry at some point

- general bad implementation of the romantic parallel Plot in S2, leading to unneccesary drama

Now I've got a LOT of thoughts about this, so here a further explanation:

- first of, I think Luzys characterisation got completly butchered for the story surrounding Max and Luzy. I know it has to do with the changes the dha adaption made from hha, but it makes zero sense to me that Luzy is suddenly so obsessed with finding love and then Kaya of all things. It doesn't seem true to her character in S1 at all. Also after the first few episodes she completley forgets about Linn which ist super weird, since she was pretty obsessed with her in S1

- Max is such a misogynistic piece of s*ht. Like don't get me wrong, I don't hate the character. His background ist pretty interesting and I like that they tried to include reaccurring characters that don't live in Haus Anubis in the age group of the cast. But to me, his weird comments about women give such a bad first Impression, I couldn't help but dislike him at first (And when I finally warmed up to him they decided to not only change the actors but also throw his characterisation over board lol) . Although I recognize, that his sexism isn't unrealistic for boys his age (and in general sadly) and might just be a reflection of sexist notions the writers have themselfes, I still hate that this wasn't adressed properly in the show .

The main reason for my dislike is however:

- To me it Just seems like Luzy tried to convince herself that she is in love with Max. This makes sense, as Luzy is convinced that she will find her true Love soon (and is in denial about her Attraction to Charlotte lol). Remember how disgusted Luzy was at the thought of Max being in love with her, after she dreams about him? Yeah that didn't make me think: wow they're made for each other. And how she couldn't imagine that Max didn't write the letters as a joke to make fun of her? Charlotte even admits herself that Luzy never gave Max a second thought before the letters.

The writers try to explain Luzys hesitance by impliying the the main reason she is turned off by the thought of her dating Max, is their age difference. While I think that is a legitimate reason, it feels like an excuse the writers use to delay their relationship for dramaticism, because the characters never show a care for way bigger age gaps (which is another can of worms that I won't open here)(see: Luzy herself is attracted to Benny, Herr Petkovic and Radus) and this reservation of Lucys is only talked about once or twice as far as I recall .

Also I feel like the circumstances under which Luzy confessed didn't really allow her to make her own choice. It was literally: tell Max you want to date him or he'll leave forever. Afterwards Luzy is shown to be ashamed of their relationship and even though I like the talk they have about it afterwards, I still think that isn't a sign of a healthy relationship. This furthers my belief that Luzy is just convincing herself that she is in love with Max, because he is the only boy that is showing sincere interest in her, disregarding that all of her emotianlly intimate relationship have been with girls in the past. This is typical behavior in a heteronormative society and reflects not only the fictional world dha plays in, but also the real world of the writers which the show is a product of.

Especially at the beginning of their relationship it seems like Max feels more for Luzy, than she does for him. The scene in the Restaurant where Max draws and compliments her, Luzy is just flattered but doesn't compliment Max in any way.

I think that Luzy is in love with the Idea of being in a relationship, instead of being in love with Max.

- Overall the relationship suffers from dhas need too always include a romantic plotline aditionally to the mystery. (Which can also be said about the other canon couples, but imo especially applies to Luzy x Max)

It's like the writers tried to delay them getting together so much, that it just ended up seeming like they weren't a good match for each other. Instead the show could have used more time to flesh out Charlottes and Kayas relationship instead of omitting how exactly their kiss at the season finale came to be. (Or just let Luzy and Charlotte get together but I know that would never happen 😭)

- now the chemistry. It's tbh not the worst, as I think Ninas and Daniels actors fail even more so at conveying that, but other characters' chemistry is just a lot better. Max and Charlotte talk way more with each other than Luzy and Max do and with their development from a relationship purely for their respective own advantage, to a friendship where they genuinely want the other to suceed and be happy, felt more natural than anything that has happened between Max and Luzy. Max & Charlotte and especially Charlotte & Luzy have more scenes of emotional vulnerabilty with each other, which I believe ist a big reason why they seem to have more chemistry.

(I also think that is where Magnus x Mara suceeds and other canon couples fail: regularly talking about their feelings, not just the feelings concerning their relationship. Many relationships that aren't canon like Luzy x Charlotte or Nina x Deliah show the characters comforting each other, telling each other secrets, casual physical touch and generally being open and understanding with each other, which the real couples just don't do to the same extent)

Also maybe that's just me, but many scenes between Luzy and Max seem kinda akward to me? Like they just don't know how to act around each other.

- also COMMUNICATION! It went well in the end, but it seems like a stupid thing to do, not to tell your girlfriend, that your father is the goddamn headmaster?? (Although I love the scenes with Luzy and Altrichter) This ist exactly the stuff you should tell your Partner.

Now some general things that irk me about the whole romance Plot in S2 which play a big part in why I dislike LuzyxMax:

- although the same can be said about Kaya, Max and Charlotte, I think it's especially weird that Luzy isn't involved in Sibuna at all in Season 2 once the romance side story starts, even tho she played an important part before. It seems unrealistic, that she isn't interested in what is happening around Sibuna all of a sudden (she does again in S3 but that's way later). Also, generally I think that from a storytelling perspective, it is a waste of characters to just involve them in a Love Plot and don't give them any other defining character moments.

- I dislike, that the love plot ist completley Independent from the main storyline. That simply seems like bad writing to me and a cheap way of avoiding to think about, how all characters can be incorporated into the story. To me, the whole love side plot in S2 seems really forced and they made it so unecessarily dramatic (thats a general dha issue tho). I especially hated how the finale was split between the pretty dark and suspenseful story around the grail and the Amusement Park scenes (even thought all of them are Comedy gold). The Amusement Park seems like a desperate attempt to somehow tie up all the storylines that were brought up during the season and therefore seems kind of rushed. I think this robbed the finale with Raven of a lot of suspense.

You get the gist 😅.

I don't think Max x Luzy is horrendous. Imo they have some cute moments, but their relationship feels forced and isn't made to last. I would prefer both characters in different relationships or single. However, a big reason for that is not inherent to this couple specifically, but to the concept and writing style of dha that depends heavily on relationship drama, which especially Luzy, Max, Charlotte and Kaya are victims of in S2.
