bdubs' delayed realization and anguish at outliving cleo in 3L + bdubs "now it feels like home" when cleo shows up at the beginning of last life + cleo "i trust you because bdubs trusted you" in later last life + cleo being bequeathed the monolith if bdubs doesn't come back from his mysterious building adventure in hcs9 + bdubs saying 3L was his favorite season because of teaming with cleo + cleo the witch of time's crastle summoning in wcsmp + "i know we're divorced bdubs, but" from cleo in double life + nonrecording bdubs offering to do grindy tasks for the clockers & fighting for cleo's favor in it.
i think abt all this a lot even though i don't feel as compelled to make fanworks about it because the most gutpunching thing is that cleo moves on but still remembers, and bdubs is still obsessed with the same other things but is still fond and echoes their first team up. so how could i improve upon that. but oh my god it's there are we all seeing this

Wedding Bell Blues
(no Upside Down AU, meet-ugly, Baker!Steve/wedding singer!Eddie)
--
Eddie is a wedding musician and it's pretty great actually. It's not the rock star life he dreamed of but it's a damned sight better than most people including him expected of Al Munson's little boy.
Eddie gets to play music. For a living. And he does pretty well. He gets to dress up a little snazzy. He gets free fancy food and a couple of drinks. And he gets to shoot his shot with anybody that looks like fun.
He's good at it too. That's the best part. His younger years spent being a low level drug dealer and a high level weirdo mean he can read a room in an instant. He gets the playlist from the bride usually, presses for some other song ideas, and he can tell who to take requests from at six paces. And who to ignore from across the room.
It's a good time.
Unfortunately not all ceremonies can be winners and based on the tension Eddie has felt from almost everyone involved in today's wedding it was going to be a tough gig.
Everything starts in an hour but Eddie isn't on until the reception so he has plenty of time to grab a smoke before soundcheck. He knows the venue pretty well and there's an alcove next to the vendor loading area. Nice flowers, a decent bench, and it's nowhere near the dumpsters.
This venue butts up against a small patch of woodland and Eddie wonders if he might have time to check it out, see if there's anything inspiring. He doesn't hike but he does enjoy a walk in nature.
Before he gets the chance a baby blue van with 'Steve's Sweets' painted across the side pulls up, blocking his sight line.
He mourns the loss of his view right up until the driver pops the door open and climbs out.
Oh, the beauties nature provides.
Acid wash jeans which under any other circumstances Eddie would laugh at are lovingly hugging possibly the finest ass he has ever had the pleasure of seeing.
The rest of the picture - when he can drag his attention away - is pretty choice too. A soft looking pink sweater, sleeves pushed up to expose sun bronzed skin making Eddie idly wonder if the man is that tan all over.
The crowning glory is a gorgeous head of hair framing a face that Eddie can only describe as pretty.
Eddie tries to turn his attention back to his cigarette. Admiring someone is one thing, leering like a creep is entirely different.
He takes a last drag and drops the filter on the gravel, grinding it out under his feet. Mentally he says farewell to the handsome stranger and turns to go back inside.
Eddie takes two steps before a suit clad man comes out of the building and pushes past him in a rush.
"Steven."
The man's not yelling, but his voice is the kind of loud that demands to be heard.
Eddie turns to watch as the man approaches the van and the other guy, Steve apparently, standing in front of it.
"What the hell are you doing here dressed like that."
Eddie should go inside. This isn't his business. But one of the perks of working weddings was the drama and this was very promising.
He stays where he is, standing just in front of the door. In case either man looks in his direction Eddie actually mimes patting at his jacket like he is looking for his smokes.
"I'm delivering a cake, Dick. And if it wasn't for Diana I wouldn't even be doing that much. She deserves to get something good out of this day."
Eddie bites back a smile, lowering his head a little so he can still watch what was happening ideally without being noticed.
"You will refer to me as father. I believe I have earned at least that much respect."
Eddie feels his eyebrows rise. This kind of drama was another part of why he likes weddings. Better than the soap operas he watches with Uncle Wayne.
"Sure," Steve snorts. "Tell you what, I'll compromise," and he continues, "Riiichaaaard."
"Grow up, Steven. You were invited here as a guest. You had better have a tuxedo in that stupid truck of yours, the ceremony starts in an hour."
"I was hired to bake a cake. Part of my fee includes delivery. That is literally the only reason I'm here. You and the future ex-Mrs Harrington will have to celebrate without me. Try not to cry yourself to sleep about it."
"You little asshole," Richard snarls. "You think you're better than me. You think I wanted you here? You owe me your presence. I have important people coming to this wedding and I need them to see my dutiful son at my side."
The baker laughs, a low nasty chuckle that sends a perverse shiver down Eddie's back.
"Tell you what, Dick, I'm booked up today but I'll come to your next wedding." Eddie looks up to see Steve is grinning, bright and as sharp as a knife. "I'll even get you a toaster."
Eddie lurches in place as he sees Richard lunge towards Steve. He is too far away to stop the man but he has to do something.
Before he takes a step the door swings open again and a petite woman comes rushing out.
"Richard?"
Eddie watches as she runs forward tugging at the satin bathrobe she is wrapped in. She freezes a few feet away from what had been brewing into a nasty fight.
"Steve? You're here-- oh, but your suit! Richard? What's going on?"
The older man doesn't turn around, doesn't seem to notice her at all but Eddie watches Steve gingerly move until he is standing between his father and the woman.
"Hey Diana," he says softly. "Sorry you had to see this, dad and me just have a difference of opinion. Everything's fine."
Eddie feels something in him clench. He is very familiar with the tone in Steve's voice. He had heard it from his uncle Wayne to his dad when he was a little kid. It is soft but firm, implacable. Eddie isn't sure exactly what is coming but he can tell Steve knew and that it would be bad.
The venue usually had at least two security patrolling the grounds, more if the reception was expected to be contentious. Eddie doesn't know where they are right now but hopefully not far.
"See what you've done Steven? God, you're useless."
"Richard, don't say that," Diana says, her voice rising.
The older man is turning from pink to red and Eddie can see Steve moving slowly, shifting his father's attention to him.
"That's me, Richard. Useless Steve. Flunked out of college and he bakes cookies like some kind of fairy. You sure you want to parade your failure of a son in front of the hoi polloi?"
Eddie hears Diana's gasp from where he's standing. "Steve, what are you talking about? Richard what's going on?"
Richard turns his glare on her and Eddie feels himself moving forward almost against his own will. He's not sure what he'll do when he gets there but he's never been the bystander type.
Steve just laughs. Bright and angry. "I'm not sure what my father told you about our relationship but we don't have one."
"No," she says. "Your father-- he told me-- "
When Eddie met her a few weeks ago he had seen a confident, charming woman that knew exactly what she wanted and was excited to be married. Now she looks confused, maybe even scared.
Eddie has gotten closer to this whole altercation than he wanted to be but since he is there and it looks like Steve and Richard are busy trying to glare holes in each other Eddie steps up to Diana and lightly grasps her elbow.
She startles and turns to face him. Her eyes are wide, wet and staring.
"Mr. Munson," she asks, softly.
Eddie tries to smile. "Mr. Munson is my uncle, ma'am. It's Eddie. Let's get you out of here, okay? Back inside."
Eddie is able to gently guide her a few steps away. He hates turning his back on the other two men but he needs to get Diana out of reach for whatever is about to happen.
"I dont understand," the bride mutters. "Steve used to be such a sweet boy. Mr. Harrin-- Richard. Oh, I'm so silly. Richard. He said-- this is so embarassing."
Her voice is pitched and tight and if she isn't crying yet she would be soon. Eddie resolves to get her inside and into the arms of literally any friendly face.
"Hey," Eddie says. "Let's just--" he scrambles for a name. Anna? Annie? "Amy, right? Your maid of honor? Let's get you to her, okay. You can sit down."
Diana nods.
Behind him he can hear Richard and Steve hissing noxious words back and forth. There is no shouting but the air is heavy and hot with anger. Even though he was outside Eddie feels like he can't breathe.
Eddie gets Diana to the door, hadn't realized how close they really were, maybe 30 feet if that. It's open, anxious faces framed in weathered oak. He hands Diana off to her Maid of Honor who quickly sweeps the woman deeper into the hall and then he nods to Patricia Abernathy, the event space manager.
"Think we're gonna have a cancellation," he says, nodding towards the departing woman.
She rolls her eyes. "Can't say I'm surprised. I had a bad feeling about this one."
Eddie scoffs. "You have a bad feeling about all of them."
He turns to face where the two men are still in a stand off in front of the van. "You're not wrong though, I think. At least I hope they cancel."
Patricia snorts. "We got the deposits locked down and the contract is airtight so if they cancel we still get fifty percent of the remaining fee. I'll take that for the rest of the day off."
"You got a date, Patty? And it's not me? You're breaking my heart."
"Ha," she says flatly. "That pretty boy is more your type and from the way he's talking you're in with a chance. Now you keep an eye on those two. Security is on their way, we'll see if they can get here before these guys start really butting heads."
Eddie nods. It isn't the first time he had been called on to help manage fractious families.
He turns back in time to see Richard take a swing at Steve. The younger guy steps back out of the way and Eddie can hear his mocking laugh as far away as the door.
He moves closer to the two of them. Eddie isn't going to get in the middle of the fight but maybe if he reminds them there are other people around that might be enough to calm them down.
He watches Richard lunge forward and swing again. This time Steve can't move away fast enough and the blow glances off of his cheek.
"Hey," Eddie calls, now jogging towards them. "Hey, knock it off! You wanna fight take it somewhere else!"
Steve turns to face Eddie, opening his mouth as if he was going to say something but all that comes out is a low grunt as Richard hits him in the shoulder and shoves him to the ground.
Eddie throws himself forward, pushing Richard away. "What do you think you're doing," he shouts in the man's face but Richard doesn't seem to hear, pressing back against Eddie.
"You little bastard," Richard shouts at his son. "You're worthless! I don't know why I bothered."
"Go to hell," Steve replies.
That seems to make Richard even angrier which Eddie hadn't thought was possible. He isn't sure he will be able to hold him off much longer.
"Hey, what's going on here," a low even voice calls. It is the venue security guard, his partner just behind him with a hand on his radio.
Eddie feels himself relax and then stumbles back as Richard pushes him aside to fall on his son again.
Eddie turns to see both guards trying to pull the older man away as he continues to hit his son, screaming obscenities.
Not sure how to help, Eddie stands by. When he sees an opening he lunges forward and takes hold of Steve's shoulders, pulling him back and away.
The younger man fights against him at first, eyes closed and arms up in front of his face.  Eddie figures he probably didn't know whose hands are on him.
"Hey. Hey. It's me, Eddie. Shit. I work here. You're safe, security has your dad. You're safe."
Eddie steps back, loosening his grip on Steve but still keeping one hand on his shoulder, trying to sooth him.
A few feet away Richard is still twisting, trying to get free and attack his son again, but Eddie can see the guards have a good hold on him and it doesn't look like they will be letting go any time soon.
As Steve calms down Eddie lets go of his shoulder, instead crouching next to him. "You doing okay? I saw you had you hands up but he got a few hits in."
Steve lowers his arms and sits upright. He twists his neck back and forth and shifts his shoulders before opening his eyes and looking up at Eddie. "I'm okay. I'm fine. God, it's a soap opera isn't it? Fuck."
Eddie lets himself drop into a seat next to the other man. They both watch in silence as the guards march Steve's father around the corner to the front of the event hall.
"You know the bride? Diana," the guy asks. "She was my babysitter. When I was eleven."
"Oof," Eddie says. "So she was--"
"Seventeen then, and now it's been twenty years for her and about three wives for him."
"Scandalous," Eddie murmurs. He sees Steve smile and feels relieved. "What will people say. The 'hoi polloi' I believe you called them?"
Steve snorts. "A crowd of empty suits that exist solely to tell my dad how respected he is. Will he get arrested?"
"Maybe," Eddie says. "I think that might be up to you. It's assault at least."
"Ugh," Steve says, rubbing his face. "That's all I need. I'm trying to get him out of my life."
"Well," Eddie says. "I can attest that jail is very good at keeping deadbeat dads out of your life."
Steve starts laughing and then winces, wrapping an arm around his stomach.
"Shit, you are hurt," Eddie says, scrambling to his feet. "Do you need an ambulance? Patty probably called 911 by now."
Steve waves him off. "I'm fine. This is not my first fight and my old man hits-- well, I was gonna say 'like a girl' but then my best friend would kick my ass and I'm way more scared of her," Steve says, laughing softly.
He looks up at Eddie and holds out his free hand. "You gonna help me up? Or is chivalry dead?"
"Chivalry," Eddie repeats. "You a damsel in distress?"
"I might as well be," Steve says. "Now come on."
Eddie laughs and reaches down, gently guiding Steve back to his feet. He feels the man's weight leaning on him for a few seconds and despite the circumstances Eddie has to admit Steve feels good in his arms.
Once he is steady Steve steps back and Eddie lets him go.
Steve moves to the van and leans up against the metal surface. Eddie walks over to join him.
"So," Steve says. "What next?"
Eddie shakes his head. "I honestly don't know. The wedding is canceled, for sure. For today at least."
"Just for today? You think she'll marry him still?"
Eddie shrugs. "I have no idea. I wouldn't but then I wouldn't have said yes in the first place."
Steve leans back, tapping his head against the van a few times before he turns back to Eddie. "You know the worst part? This was my last delivery. Now, I have to deal with this stupid cake. Three tiers of lemon and raspberry." He laughs. "Do you think a homeless shelter will take a wedding cake?"
Eddie grins. "I don't see why not. At least something good will come out of today."
Steve looks up towards the hall. "I feel like I should say something-- to Diana, I mean. She was always really nice to me, she deserved better than this."
"I have found that good or bad people rarely get what they deserve. You don't really owe her anything but I can't fault the impulse." Turning towards the hall, Eddie gestures for Steve to follow him. "Just-- just don't apologize for him? Okay?"
Steve walks in silence for a few steps before he coughs roughly. His voice is thick and choked and he coughs again. "I, uh, I stopped apologizing for him a long time ago. His faults are his own. I just wish I didn't get dragged into it."
Eddie laughs. "I know that song."
"Yeah," Steve asks.
Eddie nods. They are at the door and he pulls it open for the other man, gesturing him in with a bow.
Steve stops in the doorway as Eddie stands up again. He is framed by the light inside and the scent of hothouse roses comes drifting out into the open air. Eddie can picture him suddenly in that moment standing at a balcony limned by moonlight.
"Hey Sunshine," Eddie says softly. "Buy me a drink and we can trade stories?"
Steve smiles. "Yeah," he says, with a small laugh. "Sure, why not." He holds up his hands, still dirty and scraped from the asphalt. "Help me get cleaned up and let me say something to Diana. Then we can talk."
Eddie nods, reaches out, and places his hands gently over Steve's. "Sounds good to me."

What Will Your Future Child Love About You?
- a pick a card.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
one two three
Tumblr media
explanation.
I always see people say that there are many forms of love, not just romantic. Which, they are correct in. Yet, they still have a narrow view on it and refer to friendship as an example, or if they are big hearted their pet… Which is completely fine, I just felt a desire to create a pick a card that’s focused on love but none of those things. I never saw a pick a card with this topic before, neither on youtube or on tumblr. Could just be me though. Felt like making it anyway. If you don’t want children, that’s cool, I chose this topic because I would like to be a mother one day. This reading also applies to the first child you will have, or you know, the next one.
disclaimer.
Remember to take things with a grain of salt, and only take what resonates. Not because I don’t trust my skills, but because several people read pacs, what’s not meant for you could mean the world for someone else. Besides, this is for entertainment and the energy surrounding you or the overall situation could change any second. Life is unpredictable.
how to pick your pile.
There is always several ways to pick a pile, and sometimes maybe multiple call for us. You can pick the one that you can’t take your eyes off, even if there’s another picture you might find prettier. You can ask your guides to guide you in choosing a pile, or go with the old regular closing your eyes and picking whichever one your eyes land on. I usually do that too.
proof read?
Unfortunately no. Please know that I would never put anything in my PAC with harmful intentions towards you or anybody else.
Tumblr media
one
You, my dear pile one will be so loved for so many reasons! It’s truly incredible. Even though you might not think that you will be an awesome parent - maybe now, maybe in the future -, trust me, your child will think otherwise! First of all, they will have this adoration towards you staying calm even in stressful situations and knowing how to handle things, how to take care of them and provide a solution and smooth things out. This is will make them feel safe next to you, and with time calm down as they see that you yourself are calm too. Of course, you wouldn’t always be calm, but you wouldn’t show even when you are scared so there is someone grounded in the situation that can take charge even if just on an emotional level. - I am saying this because your spouse will help you out when things are hard, not because you aren’t capable. -
Another thing here seems to be that you will respect their privacy and love life, as long as they are safe you will let them love safely and explore their interests as much as they need to in order to be happy. You let them be independent all while allowing them to rely on you and come to you when they need it. They know that this isn’t something everyone has, so they are all the more grateful to have someone like you as their parent. You are not invasive, you are not judgmental but so full of love, acceptance and understanding towards them. Maybe because you had a childhood where you weren’t happy, so you will do your best to give them everything good that you couldn’t get to have. Full of love, and they will remember it for the rest of their life.

two
Alright, so I will be honest with you. Your next child will have some developmental issues, but not necessarily life threatening ones. - neither in a sense of d*ath or having trouble living on their own. they will just need a bit of help. - While asking your questions I stuttered a lot despite being calm, so I honestly think your child will have speech issues. Maybe potentially this could be genetic, or anything of the sort.. They will love you because even if you will have a hard time, where your mental health or emotional state will be tested you will never ever in your life will give them a hard time for whatever it is that they are struggling with. You will be loving, kind, gentle and patient with them. Instead of forcing them to learn in a pace which will stress them out you will be the one to learn how to understand what works best for them, and do that. They will really appreciate this. Honestly, regardless of whatever this issue is, I feel sorry because they have such a sensitive heart. Even if they shouldn’t, there is just some things they take to the heart and might feel like they are the problem even though they didn’t do anything. Such a pure child, the sort that’s very well behaved, kind to adults and friendly to their peers.. so these thoughts really could just come from overhearing and misinterpreting conversations or perhaps just overthinking. The funny thing is, I do think you would be their safe haven because they know you would never judge them no matter what heartbreak they are going through. It’s like they can’t imagine a life without you.
Now, I don’t mean to be an asshole or scare anyone unnecessarily. I am not a doctor and I will never be, but the ace of cups reversed here can represent miscarriages or pregnancy complications. So please if you are a woman look after your health. I don’t mean to scare you bc at the end of the day this is a collective general reading and we don’t know each other, but it’s always nice to look after your health regardless.
On a MUCH brighter note though, they will truly appreciate whenever you support their interests. They might be a book worm, so if this is something you two have in common they could happily share their interests with you! They will do it regardless, but your baby would get so excited if you show interest in them.
You will also stand next to them and support them no matter what they go through in life, let that be good or bad, which is something they will really appreciate.

Tumblr media
three
Your child, will sometimes give you headaches.. but they will really love you. If you have ever seen modern family then they sort of remind me of Hailey in the earlier seasons. Bratty, picks fights, doesn’t always understand where her mom is coming from but sees all the hard work that she does and appreciates and loves her mother - both parents really - quite deeply. Not to say I am calling your child bratty, or a brat. That’s not where I am going with this, rather your guides pulled towards letting you know this first so you don’t misunderstand the rest of the reading.
They will, first of all, love that you will give them everything that you can. Y’all will be pretty well off. Not only will you guys be able to live comfortably but they will have a few unnecessary things that they don’t even need or probably forget about in a few years after getting it. They are not ungrateful, rather the opposite. They know this is a privilege, they don’t look down on those less fortunate than you guys, they are just grateful that they have a parent that cares about them so much they would give them everything they ask for, even if things aren’t always the brightest. You also, always, without any question get them out of any trouble or uncomfortable situation and defend them. Won’t matter if they are in the wrong or not, that’s your baby and you will stand by them!
They also love to travel with you! They enjoy your company a lot and to make memories, they always look forward to exploring the world with you. They might also follow you around like a little duckling, even if you only go to the store or to do some super boring errands. Honestly, your kid is an extrovert and super clingy. In a cute way though for sure.
Your dynamic with them reminds me of a tiktok I saw months back, where the teenage kid was piggy back riding the mom and she was annoyed as she recorded saying “look what I have to deal with”, but in reality she truly just appreciated the love. Such an easy going and regular pile, love that for y’all.

My pain in the ass - Choi Seung Hyun/T.O.P x reader part 3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Summary: After establishing your relationship with Seung Hyun, you both end up spending the day doing interviews, only to end it with Seung Hyun realizing he'd never love anybody like he does Y/n.
Warnings: None my lovelies <33
Interviews were always fun for you and Seung Hyun, especially after getting together, deciding to keep it as private as you could until you were both ready to confirm anything. As you stood on the set with Seung Hyun, you giggled loudly watching as the interviewer smirked looking between you two. "So, we have a game for you all! With you all being here tonight, we thought it'd be fun for you all to play a game for any prize you'd like!" The interviewer laughed loudly, you giggled holding onto Seung Hyun's fingers slightly as you listened to the rules of the game. "So this game, we have five different prizes, all catered towards the each of you. Now we all know how BigBang is with their chorography on stage! So today we're going to play different BigBang songs from throughout the years, and you all will have to improve dance, each song is a different round, and each round will have one member!" The host explained before pointing to Tae-Yang "You are first, Tae-Yang" He cheered as the familiar music to 'Bang Bang Bang' played loudly, you giggled hiding your face behind Seung Hyun's arm as your bandmate made a complete fool of himself dancing.
Watching as Ji-Yong tried his best with 'Girlfriend' you felt your cheeks heat up as the host pointed at you "Y/n! Please make your way to the floor" He cheered, you giggled loudly covering your mouth slightly as you traded places with Ji-Yong. Hearing Seung Hyun's verse for 'Bae Bae' you immediately smirked giggling loudly as you started to improve, eventually falling into his cerography he did on stage. Swinging around on one foot before thrusting your hips out, causing Seung Hyun's laughs to turn into playful shouts "No! My eyes!" He shouted covering his eyes as he reached out pulling you away, holding you against him to prevent you from doing anything else he did from the rather sexual chorography, especially with your mind planning out the next moves. "Top! You can't stop the challenge!" The host laughed loudly, he just laughed shaking his head, refusing to let you go even whenever you fought "I don't want your love! Not now!" You shouted playfully, trying to get out of his grasp, the host laughed loudly before moving on to Dae-Sung and ending with Top.
As your verse for the same song played over the speakers, Seung Hyun smirked, closing his eyes as he threw his head back dramatically, shaking out his imaginary hair as he swayed his hips, you squealed laughing loudly as you hid behind Tae-Yang, watching as your boyfriend followed your chorography perfectly, even going as far as swirling his hips before the music cut off, the Host wiping the tear from under his eye from laughing "Top! You're telling us you know Y/n's chorography but not your own!?" He laughed, referring to Seung Hyun admitting he had forgotten dance moves before earlier in the show. "Duh! I know everybody's!" He lied, confidently walking to his spot, playfully grimacing as you hugged him tightly. As the filming came to an end, you said your goodbyes with the boys, holding up your hand, shaping your fingers into a small heart as the director called 'Cut'.
It felt like forever before you made it back home, the car ride taking agonizingly long as you watched the buildings and houses pass by. Once you finally did arrive at home, you were quick to rush to the couch, flopping face down as you side "Not even waiting for me, rude" Seung Hyun teased before sitting on the sofa across from you, tiredly leaning back against the back of the couch, glaring at him as you stood up making your way over he groaned "Whyyy! You were over there!" He laughed, opening his arms letting you sit next to him, resting your head on his chest as you curled up in your spot, his arm coming down to wrap around you. You glanced over, noticing he had pulled his phone out and was scrolling on something, watching quietly as you watched a soft smile grow on his face as he clicked something. "Isn't that beautiful?" He asked, moving his phone over to show you the designer table that had a small green 'ordered!' under it "You mean you?" You flirted shamelessly, causing Seung Hyun to bust out in a laugh, not being able to contain his amusement for you attempting to flirt, only sounding very, very confused.
You ended up on the couch with Seung Hyun for about an hour before you finally left to get in the shower, wanting to wash the sweat out of your hair, desperately. Your shower was quick as you attempted to rush out in nothing but a towel, huffing loudly whenever you ran into the locked bedroom door, knocking loudly as you whined "I need my clothes!!" You shouted, normally you would take them with you, but in your defense, you were extremely tired. "I'm changing, give me a moment! No girls allowed!" Ji-Yong and Tae-Yang both shouted, causing you to groan, turning to rush back into the bathroom before the door was shut in your face "Dae-Sung!" You huffed, stomping your foot as you looked around, starting to feel goosebumps appear on your skin. "Wow, what did I do to end up here?" Seung Hyun joked as he turned down the hallway, ready for bed himself "..Don't laugh" You mumbled shyly, watching as a smile grew on his face "I'm serious! It's embarrassing! Don't laugh!" You protested again, feeling your face heat up with embarrassment as tears started to build in your eyes. Instead of laughing, Seung Hyun offered you a playful pout, disappearing into the living room, coming back a moment later with your throw blanket you had brought out there that morning. He wrapped it around your body, holding the ends tightly around you as you immediately started to warm up, you leaned into him, letting yourself lean forward until you were flush against Seung Hyun's chest.
"Why are you so insistent with touching mee!?" Seung Hyun whined as you tried to get him to scoot over so you could lay with him "Because..one, I just like the way my heart feels whenever I'm touching you, and two, You're dating me now, Seung Hyun, you have to accept it" You explained, smiling in victory as he rolled onto his back, raising his arm for you to squeeze onto the mattress with him. Laying next to him, you sighed, feeling like your body was sinking into the bed almost like it was a cloud. "Your heart feels a way when you touch me? That sounds very creepy" He teased, turning to face you as he wrapped his arm around your waist "You asshole, You know what I meant..You make me have butterflies..and I just like it" You muttered sheepishly, shoving his shoulder back slightly, he just laughed, trying to hide his own blush that was growing on his cheeks.
Whenever you woke up the next day, you were trapped, Seung Hyun's arms tightly around you as he held you like you were his own personal teddy bear. As you attempted to escape, you heard his deep groan in protest to you moving "Aein, my love, I need coffee" You huffed, almost like magic, the word 'Coffee' caused your boyfriend's head to shoot up in excitement "Will you get me some?.." He asked softly, giving you his best pleading eyes "Please? Wonderful, amazing, kind, independent, strong, beautiful, hot, sexy girlfriend?" He rambled, trying to charm you into making an extra cup "I guess, since you're cute in the mornings" You smiled, sliding off of the bed onto your feet as Seung Hyun loosened his grip. "I will be back" You smiled, blowing him a quick kiss before disappearing into the kitchen.
As Seung Hyun laid on the bed, he couldn't stop his mind from wandering, You were so kind to everybody, yet so shy, but as soon as you had your first rehearsal, you clung to Seung Hyun, always wanting to be close to him or just having any type of physical contact with him. It wasn't like you were touchy with everybody like that, it took months before you were confident and fully comfortable dancing with Ji-Yong during one of your shared songs together, so it confused Seung Hyun on what made him so different, in his eyes, the others were more attractive and nicer to women, but you still wanted everything to do with him. To you, Seung Hyun was everything, he was your muse for your music and motivations, he was the reason you got out of bed in the morning, just to be able to see him and make him smile in someway. "You're cute whenever you think" You giggled teasing as you carefully walked in with two coffee cups, handing one to Seung Hyun before carefully sitting next to him "Why did you like me so much, whenever you first met everybody?" He asked softly, resting his free hand on your thigh "I don't know..something about how calm you were all the time?..especially whenever the boys and I are really upset, you've still got a level head, I knew I'd never be scared around you" You explained shrugging softly "And then..You grumpiness towards my affection and you never stopping it, just made my heart grow fonder of you" You added on, pressing your lips against his softly before pulling away to take a sip of your drink "You're too sweet, Aein" He smiled, not being able to hide his blush as he took a drink, trying his best to hide it with his cup. "I love you" You whispered, looking at him as you saw him smile wider from behind his mug "I love you too" He replied, watching in awe as you took another quick sip of your coffee before taking both yours and his, placing them on your side table before giggling, turning to face him as you cupped his cheeks, kissing him softly as his hands found your hips. As you deepened the kiss, you ghosted your hand over the waistband of his pants, giggling evilly as you pulled away, turning to grab you coffee again "Really? All of that? For nothing?" Seung Hyun asked in shock, looking at your flustered expression, then the growing bulge in his sweatpants, giggling you just shook your head, setting your cup back down before kissing his neck gently "For someone who doesn't want me touching them, you sure want me to touch you now" You teased sarcastically, smiling against his skin whenever you heard his soft chuckles, what could Seung Hyun say though? You were a pain in the ass, more importantly though, you were his pain in the ass.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
Han stares up in awe at the giant house before him. It’s in a rich neighborhood not far out of town and he easily recognizes the expensive and shiny cars as belonging to some of the well-off kids. They flaunt them everywhere so it’s hard not to recognize them.
He glances down at his text messages, rereading the instructions you sent while nervously fiddling with the collar of his leather jacket. She said just to let myself in… He slowly walks up the walkway of the house, laughing to himself in disbelief at how loud the music is being played. He could hear it loud and clear from inside the damn taxi.
When he finally gets to the porch he sends you a text and opens the door hesitantly, only opening it a few inches to squeeze in without bringing too much attention to him. Once he closes the door and turns, his jaw drops. The inside is huge and has at least 50 people in the living room alone, let alone to giant crowd he can see in the kitchen and hallways. A familiar head pokes out of the kitchen and rushes towards him, a big smile on his face.
Han recognizes the boy as Yeonjun, a tall guy who he used to have dance class with in high school, and who shares a few mutual friends. He smiles back, waving shyly as the boy takes long strides up to him. “Yo!! Han! Nice to see you, man. Y/N told me you were coming but I didn’t think I’d see it haha.” Han chuckles and nods, “I didn’t think I was gonna come either, but she asked so...”
Yeonjun wraps an arm around his neck and leads him around the house, giving him a small tour as they seek out the girl in question together. The taller boy stops occasionally at little tables with snacks and drinks, making sure Han is taken care of before marching onwards in search of those bouncy pigtails. The kindness is more than welcome but Jisung is far from his comfort zone and can't help but chat timidly. He was going to give up and attempt to call her, but suddenly he heard a squeal from his left.
He turns in time to see Y/N running up to him, dressed up in all white and somehow showing more skin than usual. Her shirt parts in multiple places, showing off her cleavage and some side boob as well as her tummy. And no bra..? Is she nuts? His eyes flicker to the thin string that holds the top together and he can feel his eye twitch.
A hand on his shoulder cuts him out of his trance, almost making him fall from the sudden weight. Yeonjun leans in and chuckles, lowly whispering to Han as if anybody could hear them over the music. “She already had a few cups so good luck. If you thought she was touchy before, you can’t imagine how she gets when she drinks.” Han’s eyes widen at the warning, but before he has time to ask what he meant Yeonjun is already gone. The feeling of a body clutching onto his arm has him turning back the opposite way, taking in the rest of her features as she mumbles words at him.
“My goshh~ I didn’t think you’d actually come, Sungie... ‘Missed you soooo much. hehe...” He chuckles and cringes, not sure how to respond. However, he’s not even given a chance to because she starts dragging him down the hallway to the game room where some of her friends are grouped.
About 3 hours pass before Jisung finally settles in, still very uncomfortable but slowly opening up to some of the people there. Y/N had a cup and a half more before everybody began sneaking her water meanwhile Jisung was still on his first cup, only having taken a few sips. He’s too busy zoned out and staring at the floor to realize that they’re almost alone, his mind too busy over the white lace garter that decorates the thigh of his love interest. He’s leaning back on one of the leather couches in the game room, and aside from the few random people who are spread around busy playing their games, or sucking each other's faces, it’s fairly vacant.
Then the song blasting throughout the house suddenly changes to a new one. A slow sensual one that, if he wasn’t so preoccupied, would’ve made him uncomfortable from the sheer seductiveness of it. But this poor little emo boy only realizes once it’s too late: once two hands covered by those familiar white arm warmers rest on his lower tummy. He tenses up and his face darts up to stare at the girl, almost offendedly. Even from this distance, he can smell the sugary sweet sangria on her breath and, for once in his life, the idea of her touching him makes him uneasy.
Y/N smiles, bites her lip, and crawls on top of him, planting a knee on either side of his hips. She leans in until their noses almost touch and Han has half the mind to back away as much as possible. But she only pushes further until she's almost completely pressed up against him. Her hips press down and she looks up at him from under her eyelashes.
His hard-on is resting perfectly against her mound. There’s no way she doesn’t feel that. His brain fries and he stutters out her name in confusion, putting his hands on either side of her shoulders to hold her back. She ignores him completely in favor of slowly running her hands up his stomach and to his chest, pulling the chain around his neck so that he leans into her.
She giggles at his reaction and lowers her hands onto his, pushing them back and lower to rest on her ass, where she then leaves them and wraps her hands around his neck. Those glossy lips of hers are caught between her teeth as she leans into him, her voice low and seductive. “Sungie~” He doesn’t try to move his hands, why would he? He’s enjoying himself. But he does slightly freak out at the thought of people walking in and seeing a freak like him groping the hottest girl on the planet. “What are you doing?!” He looks around the room to make sure there are no prying eyes but her smooth voice drags his attention back to her.
“C’mon~~ Don’t you think I'm pretty?” Her flushed cheeks are almost unnoticeable in the dim lighting but boy does he see it. Their lips ghost and he feels his dick twitch in his jeans when he feels some of her lip gloss get transferred to him. Fuck. I was doing so well today too… “Don’t you want me?” Her voice lowers with each word until she’s whispering against his lips, finally pushing her own against his. His heart beats out of his chest but he lets his eyes close and his hands move up to her waist as he reciprocates the kiss. Her tongue pokes out in an attempt to deepen the kiss and he reluctantly lets it happen. His head spins when their tongues clash and he finds himself losing control when her lip gloss smudges all over their chins. Holy shit... She tastes like strawberries... 
Eventually, they pull away to breathe but she wastes no time and dips down to his neck, leaving sloppy kisses along his Adam's Apple as she mumbles incoherent sentences against it. If the slurring of her words wasn’t enough to discourage him, the recalling of his earlier conversation was. The uneasy feeling from earlier is quickly forgotten when Yeonjun’s voice replays in his head. His hand roughly digs into her hair and pulls her away so that she’s sitting up straight. The moan it pulls from her only makes him harder.
“You know… Yeonjun warned me about how touchy you are when you drink. You do this with every man you get your little hands on?” He whispers against her ear. “N-No only for you, Sungie. I promise~” She pouts and he narrows his eyes at her, not believing it for even a second. “Yeah? Then why does he seem so familiar with how you’re acting right now? You probably whore out every time they have one of these parties. Am I supposed to be your next victim?” Hell. I don’t think I’d even mind being a victim to her.
She whimpers and frowns, shaking her head rapidly and unintentionally rubbing herself harder against his hard-on. He closes his eyes to focus on breathing; while this newfound confidence is nice, he doesn’t think it’s enough to push any further than this, so he just doesn’t respond. Instead choosing to stay quiet and let his other hand squeeze the fat of her thighs, engraving the feeling in his mind. Who knows when I’ll get another chance like this? Might as well take advantage of it too... He knows he shouldn’t. She’s drunk for fucks sake! But GOD does she look so good like this... On my lap, all desperate for me.
The hold on her hair is loosened as he lets his hands roam all over her body. They start at her thighs: running his fingers over the flesh there softly before flattening his palms against her ass and squeezing them, spreading them apart in the process. He glances up at her shutting eyes and nodding head, thinking to himself for a second as he mindlessly fondles her ass. He wonders just how far he can get before she sobers up. She’s gonna fucking hate me... But also, she looks so drunk that she might not even notice. OR remember for that matter.
With every passing second he feels his morals fading away until he eventually decides that today is the day he gives no fucks. Let her find out. Fuck it. His hands move up to her hips again and pull her down, dragging her clothed pussy over his bulge like she was doing earlier. She sighs and closes her eyes all the way, spreading her knees to allow him to pull her farther down. He bites his lip and looks around, staring intensely at the last 2 people in the room who were too busy sucking each other’s faces off to notice his actions. A whimper of his name pulls his attention back to the girl above him. His hooded eyes meet hers as she stares down at him, the neediness painfully obvious. He smirks and tilts his head, playing dumb as she starts to move her hips on her own again.
“Hmm? What’s wrong Y/N?” His hands trail down her thighs and he licks his lips as he stares down at them. His pointer finger and thumb rub the fabric of her lace garter as he waits patiently for her to respond. When she doesn’t he pulls the elastic back, letting it snap against her soft skin there. It pulls a delayed squeak from her and he continues to smirk cockily. The hand moves back up and plays with the hem of her skirt. He can faintly see the dark colored panties she has on and he’s itching to see it. He glances up to see her eyes fluttering open and closed again. She won’t notice...
Then he grabs the fabric and pushes it up against her tummy. He holds it there as he peeks between her legs, watching her pretty panties soak more and more as she pushes down more against him. Her pretty, red panties. You fucking whore.. The hand resting on her ass rises and comes down, slapping the bare flesh there meanly and pulling a shriek from her. “You planned this shit, didn’t you? Asked me for my favorite color just to wear some slutty panties to entice me?” And they’re fucking sheer again. She looks down at him with watery eyes and whines, placing her hand on his shoulder as her hips continue to move. The silence that follows is all the answer he needs. 
He snakes his right hand up her body, stopping at her chest and pinching her nipples through the thin fabric. “Stupid little crybaby... Slutting yourself out for anybody who will give you the time of day.” The hand comes down on her ass again and her hips falter. “Did I say you could stop?” Her head rolls and she continues instantly; he can feel her obedience awakening something new in him.
His right hand slides through the top hole of her shirt to grab a handful of her boob, squeezing it as he leans in. He licked her other nipple through the fabric, sucking and nibbling it as her hips continued to rut against him. Eventually, though, the fabric was preventing him from feeling her up properly and it irritated him to no end. The alcohol in his system tells him to rip it open, but the sober side of him shuts the idea down instantly, so he grabs the top string of her shirt, pulling it roughly and freeing her chest to the cold air in the game room. She gasps and tries to cover herself with her arms but he grabs both of her wrists before she can. “Don’t even think about it. You wanted to act like a whore so I'm treating you like one.” He pushed her arms out of the way and grabbed handfuls of her chest with both hands, aggressively massaging the mounds of fat as if proving his point.
He leans back in, releasing the death-grip on one of her boobs and wrapping those pretty pink lips around her bare nipple. His now free hand moves to her ass, slapping the skin before grabbing her hip and grinding her harder against him. Her hands trail into his hair, grabbing handfuls and tugging it as she moans loudly. “S-Sungie! Ahh~” Her sweet voice crying out his name was the last thing he needed to send him over the edge, and the hands in his hair gripped tighter as she came with him, both of their faces scrunching up in pleasure as he continued to move her hips against him and lick her nipple.
Eventually, they both finish riding out their highs and she sleepily wraps her arms around his neck and hides her face in the crook of his neck. He let her stay there as he caught his breath, hands rubbing up and down her back soothingly. He very quickly hears soft snores coming from her and gets up, laying her softly on the couch as he does so. Standing in the same place she was just 10 minutes ago gives him the perfect view to stare down at her, mind boggled at the way she still looks so hot despite being completely ruined.
Her lip gloss was smeared all over the lower part of her face and her lips themselves were swollen and red. Her shirt was still spread wide open, letting anybody who walked in see her pretty tits. His eyes traced the red marks he left against the pudgy skin there as her chest rose and fell with her breaths. Her one nipple had a pretty red tint on it from his insistent suckling. Her skirt hung loosely around her waist, rising with each breath and giving him the perfect view of her panties that were now darkened from her cum. Now I get to see it in real-time.. haha…
Pride filled his chest as the realization hit that he did this. Not Yeonjun. Not Juwon. Not one of those stupid ass frat boys. Me. The post-nut clarity and sudden soberness were almost enough to send him spiraling as another realization filled his head. The realization of what these emotions meant. Feeling jealousy at the thought of other guys touching her and happiness at the feeling of being the one to make her cum in her little red panties. Before he could dwindle further, the girl whined from her spot on the couch before yawning loudly and stretching. Then her sleepy voice filled his ears, “‘Wanna go home Sungie..”
By the time he fixes her outfit, she's fast asleep. Jisung puts her on his back and piggybacks her through the hallways and down the stairs. As the sole of his boots landed on the expensive tile, he quickly realized that nobody was around. The previously packed living room and kitchen were now left in a giant mess and it was quiet enough to hear a pin drop. He had so many questions but opted to ignore them for now and adjusted the girl on his back, inching her farther up so that he didn’t drop her.
As he stepped onto the front porch, he was met with a familiar face. Yeonjun cackled out loud at the sight of them, startling the boy and almost waking the sleeping beauty on his back. “You guys are still here? I thought you took her home ages ago??” Yeonjun smiled at him, watching Han breathe deeply to calm the heart attack that he almost had. “Just take her to your house, man. None of her roommates are going home tonight so she’ll be locked out if you go to her place.”
Jisung furrowed his eyebrows at the taller boy, “Are... Are you sure?”
“Yeah, she trusts you. And would you rather her sleep in your bed or her apartment hallway where anybody could take advantage of her?” Jisung visibly gulps and nods silently, pushing past the taller boy to meet the taxi that slowly pulled up behind him. He settles her in carefully, almost lovingly, and walks to the opposite side to join her in the back seat. He waved awkwardly at Yeonjun, who watched them and waved with a menacing smile on his face. 
As Yeonjun waved them away he smirked to himself. “That little minx... She’s got him wrapped around her finger haha.”

There is a trend on some social media where the wife/Gf gives her man a full plate and only her self a little saying that is all that was left. How would Andy and Ari act in that situation?

You weren’t quite sure what possessed you to do this. If anybody asked, you would claim temporary insanity. But right now you were about to get up to some mischief. 
“I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.” You mutter under your breath as you adjust the position of the camera you hid tucked away behind a plant. Pleased with the angle, you make a mental note to revisit the world of Harry Potter sooner rather than later. 
It was officially time for a reread. 
Tonight you were gonna play a little joke on your bounty hunter boyfriend. One that you’d come across the other day after accidentally straying from the wonderful world of BookTok. You just hoped he would find it as amusing as you did. In fact, you were certain that he would.
Eventually.   
Hands on your hips, you do an about-face and traipse back into the kitchen to get started on dinner. On tonight’s menu was a Tuscan pork roast, complete with red wine mushrooms and Haricots Verts – also known as French Green Beans. And for dessert, you’d decided to whip up your man’s favorite: key lime pie 
So, even if he got pissed at you later, you were confident you had something that would soothe his ruffled feathers. 
Fingers crossed.
Tumblr media
Later that Evening…
The heady thrum of excitement hits you the moment you hear the open and shut of your front door. Having anticipated his arrival, you’d even thrown on a new dress and cued up a little music. While it wasn’t your usual style, you knew without a doubt that Ari would appreciate your efforts. 
“Bird?” 
The sound of your nickname has a smile forming on your lips before you even realize it. Smoothing your hands over your skirt, you make your way towards your mudroom, eager to greet your handsome bounty hunter. 
His eyes light up the moment he sees you. He stands there for a moment, drinking in the sight you clad in your new black dress and wedge heels. 
“Well, get a look at you.” He breathes, allowing his bag to drop at his feet next to his forgotten boots.
“You like?” Biting your lip, you give into temptation and do a little spin. 
Confidence blooms when you hear his appreciative whistle. But that’s nowhere near enough for your man. Because now that you’d gone and given him a show, he wanted more. 
“Oh baby, I love.” 
Pulling you into his arms, his mouth quickly descends upon your own. His tongue wastes no time finding yours, exploring every inch, every corner of your mouth. He lets you know without words that he’s so unbelievably happy to be home holding you like this. 
You cling to him, your hands roving beneath the soft fabric of his t-shirt to run along the sculpted plane of his back. When he finally lets you up for air it’s so he can nuzzle his nose in the crook of your neck, inhaling your sweet, unique scent.    
“You’re beautiful.” He rasps, pecking your lips once more, his large hands come up to frame your face. “So beautiful. Can’t wait to take this dress off you later, see what you might be hiding underneath.”
“All in good time, Beast.” Your lashes flutter closed as you lean into his touch. “All in good time.”
“What if I don’t wanna wait?” His husky growl rumbles from somewhere deep in his chest as he fiddles the material of your skirt. 
“Well, you’re gonna.” Comes your cheeky response. “So go on and wash up for supper. We’re having something yummy.” You bat as his hands, intending to shoo him up the stairs.
The look that flashes across your man’s face makes it clear that he’d much rather have you for dinner instead. He boxes you in, slowly crowding you with his much larger frame as he backs you against a nearby wall. 
However, you refuse to let yourself be swayed.
“I mean it, mister.” You repeat, poking him in the chest. “Now, be a good boy and go wash up.” Ari’s eyes darken at your words. His head dips without warning as he bites your finger, sucking the digit into his mouth, making you gasp. 
“Alright, Duchess. Have it your way.” He growls once he finally deigns to release you. “You’d best be ready for me when I get back.” With that, he gives you his back as he strides off in the direction of the stairs.
“I ain’t scared of you.” You tell his retreating form, waiting until you hear his heavy footfalls sounding on the floor above you. Only then do you move, intending to finish setting up for dinner. 
‘Alright, sugar.’ You think, taking a second to fluff your curls. ‘Time to earn yourself an Oscar.’ 
Tumblr media
Fifteen Minutes Later…
You’ve just finished hiding away what’s left of your meal when you hear Ari make his way into your tiny dining room.
“Have a seat, Beast!” You call out, hoping that the act you were about to put on was at least mildly convincing. “I–I’ll be right in.”
Blowing out a breath you snag your bounty hunter’s plate, along with a glass of wine, and head into the next room. Although he admittedly wasn’t much of a wine drinker before he met you, he tended to enjoy whatever selection you paired with your meal. 
Tonight you’d picked a lovely pinot noir.       
This time when you see him, you’re treated to the sight of a freshly showered Ari lazily sprawled in one of your slightly too small chairs. His still damp hair is pushed back off his face as he waits for you, patiently biding his time while he plans his next move.
Or so you assumed, anyway.
“Here you are.” You sing as you approach. “Tonight I bring you an expertly roasted Tuscan pork loin, complete with a garlic and mushroom risotto and french-style green beans.”
“Smells good, baby.” He absentmindedly scratches at his jaw while he surveys the mountain of food on his plate. 
“Hopefully it tastes good too.” You lean down to press a quick kiss against his temple. “I’ll, uh, be right back with mine.” The handsome brute smacks your ass when you turn to depart, making you yip.      
“Hurry back.” He grunts, letting out a chuckle when he sees you trying to rub the sting out of your butt.
Seconds later you return with your food before quietly taking a seat at the table, all the while refusing to make eye contact. Picking up your napkin, you make a show of draping it across your knee, and then…
You wait. 
It doesn’t take long for Ari to notice the differences between your respective plates, and it takes even less time for him to speak on it – much to your internal satisfaction.
“What the–?” Ari pushes his plate aside so that he can get a better look at your virtually empty one. “Where the hell’s the rest of your food, baby?” His deep voice comes out deceptively soft.  
“Huh?” You cast him a sheepish glance, feigning embarrassment. “Oh this? It’s fine.”
“That’s not what I asked, Bird.” The quiet steel in his voice is impossible to miss.
“I know it wasn’t. But this was all that was left, so…” You trail off, averting your gaze in favor of using your fork to push food around your plate. “It’s fine.”
“There’s that damn word again.” You hear him grumble under his breath, his nostrils flaring in frustration. “I got news for you, Bird. It ain’t fine.” He grouses, reaching for you even as you shift away.
“But it is.” You sing, daintily fanning yourself with a napkin. 
“No it isn’t.” He sings right back, clearly not understanding your game. Which was a good thing. It meant that you two could play a little longer.  
“Look, if this is about you feeling like you need to start counting calories again…” Ari goes to rest his elbows on the table, his own meal all but forgotten. “Then please believe me when I tell you that you look phenomenal. And not just tonight, baby. I mean every night.”
You feel your cheeks heat as your body responds to his praise. That familiar warmth soon spreads, pooling in your belly while you mentally preen at his words.  
“Thank you, Ari.” 
“Oh don’t thank me, sweet girl.” His already husky voice dips another octave. “I just want you to eat.” You stifle a small shiver when the roughened pads of his fingertips lightly graze over your hand. “Now, do me a kindness and take your pretty little self back into that kitchen and fix yourself a proper plate.” 
And there it was. He thought you were lying about there not being any leftovers. He was right, of course. Just not the way he thought he was. 
“I would if I could, sugar.” You stretch out your legs beneath the table as you prepare to really sell the narrative. “Honest. But there really isn’t anything left. I…accidentally only bought one pork loin instead of two. And then I misjudged the recipe for the risotto, but that was most likely on account of the fact that I was in my feelings about the state of Herb & Twine’s green beans selection. It wasn’t very good.”
Ari doesn’t tell you this, but he’s actually impressed by your ability to speak that fast without so much as taking a breath. Instead all you receive is a gruff “uh huh” for your trouble.  
“So,” You forge on, now fully committed to the bit. “I salvaged what I could out of the meal I planned and then gave most of it to you.”
“Why?” 
Boy, he did not look happy. Which was great news for you
“Because…” You draw out the word, wincing when you belatedly notice the sudden tick in his jaw. “I just…felt like you shouldn’t have to suffer for my mistakes.”
“Oh.” He hums, pursing his lips as he mulls over your story. “Well, I reckon we’ll just have to fix that.”
Unsure of what he means, you open your mouth to keep talking, only to let out a shriek when Ari suddenly reaches over to grip the back of your chair to drag you, and it, over closer to him.  
“Christ, Beast!” Your hand flies to your still-heaving chest as you will your heartbeat to calm down. 
But your man’s not done yet. 
You scarcely have time to catch your breath before you’re hauled into his lap. Immediately your arms go to weave themselves around his neck to keep you from falling. Not that Ari would’ve ever allowed that to happen.
Seemingly unbothered by your rather dramatic response, Ari seeks to balance you on top of his muscled thighs as he leans over again to retrieve your plate. You watch in confusion as he unceremoniously dumps the contents onto his own dish before setting yours aside once more. 
“Hate to break it to you, Duchess.” He seamlessly adjusts your positions so that he can grasp his knife and fork. “But I don’t need all this food. So it looks like we’ll just have to share.” 
Momentarily stunned by this turn of events you can only nod as he feeds you a tender bite of pork. It takes a moment for you to find your voice, but when you finally do, it’s to utter two simple words. 
“Ari, wait.” 
“‘Fraid I’m not really in the mood to wait.” Your impatient bounty hunter warns. But he does pause his efforts, his fork hovering mere centimeters from your mouth. “You’re nuts if you think I’m the kinda man who would even consider stuffing himself while his lady sits by and starves.”
“I know.” You assure him before rearranging your body so that you’re facing him, your thighs  now straddling his hips. “And I think that’s awfully sweet.”
“Great. So how about you –”
“But since this is a prank…” The grin you’re sporting threatens to split your face in two. “It looks like you get to keep your food.”
Ari blinks back at you, his mouth briefly opening and closing in a way that very much reminds you of a fish. You feel positively giddy as you press your hands on either side of his bearded face so you can plant a kiss on his full lips while he tries, and fails, to make sense of what you just said. 
“Run that by me one more time.” His quiet snarl is enough to have you soaking your panties.
“I saw this thing on TikTok, where these women all decided to prank their boyfriends by serving them this big ol’ plate of food, while pretending to give themselves only a little bit and claiming that was all that was leftover. They filmed their reactions and posted ‘em for everyone else to see.”
“What the hell is a fuckin’ TikTok?” 
“It’s this app where you…” You pause as you try to find the right words. “Where people can, um–”
“Post dumb shit?” He quirks a tawny brow as he tries to remain serious, even though you’re also pretty sure that you just saw his lips twitch. “Come up with new and inventive ways to torture the men that love them?”
“I mean, that’s not all it is.” You take a moment to whisper kisses along his chiseled jaw. “But I guess that’s a pretty accurate description.”
“Hmph.” Your grumpy bounty hunter continues to glower at you, even as his large, warm hands move to settle on your hips. “And am I right to assume you’re recording this?”
“Maybe…” You giggle, not bothering to hide just how funny you found this all to be. “Oh – but I was never gonna post it. Promise.” 
You hold up your pinky, trying your hardest to look solemn. But the look Ari gives you lets you know that he’s done falling for your act. 
“I’m warning you, Duchess.” He grunts, lightly bouncing you on his lap. “I swear to God, if I catch myself on that fuckin’ tock clock…thing…you have my word that I’m gonna redden that ass.”
“I already told you I wasn’t gonna.” You reassure him once more, resting your forehead against his. “By the way, thanks for bein’ such a good sport about the whole thing.”
“No problem.” He flashes you a feral grin, revealing his pearly white teeth. It shoots straight to your core. “But the way I see it, you kinda owe me one. Don’t you?” He leans in close as his hands begin gently kneading your curves. 
“Um…I don’t think–” You let out a soft whimper when he drags his nose along the delicate column of your throat.
“Oh, but I do.” He nips at your jaw. 
“I suppose that’s fair.” 
“Trust me, it is.” His sensual growl has you practically shivering with need. “Which is why you’re gonna show me where you hid that camera.” His lust-filled gaze drops to your cleavage as he openly begins undressing you with his eyes.
“Now hold on a minute, Beast –” You stammer once realization dawns. 
“Aw, don’t fret.” Ari’s rueful chuckle lets you know that you will never win this battle. “You’ll have your turn to direct our little movie.” Ari suddenly stands without warning so that he can gently deposit you back in your own chair. “Especially now that I know how much you love performing for the camera.
Oh, the man had you there. Sometimes your Beast was a bit too cunning for your liking. 
“I don’t think–” You try again, now feeling shy. “What we do in the dark has no business being on film!”
“Hm, guess we’ll just have to keep the lights on. But for now, let’s get you fed.” He drops a kiss on your head before picking up your empty dish and sauntering off towards the kitchen. “We’ll talk lighting and camera angles once you’re finished.” 
Good Lord on high. What had you just gotten yourself into?
“Here we are.” Ari continues upon his return a few minutes later. He sets your down in front of you before taking your napkin and redraping it across your lap. “But I’d eat fast if I were you.”
“Um…why?” You ask, eyeing him warily. 
“Because.” He winks at you before taking a seat and enthusiastically spearing a piece of meat onto his fork. “Tonight’s dress rehearsal starts in thirty minutes.”

Mike and Wills friendship vs everybody elses
I’m sick of people acting like Mike and Wills friendship is platonic when 1. One literally had a crush on the other and 2. None of the other friendships are treated the same way Mike and Will are throughout the seasons so let’s go over them!
(This is gonna be a long one!)
Season 2 & 1
First off, in season 1, the show focuses on how Will going missing effects Mike the most out of all his friends. Mike is the only one to notice Will isn’t at school the day he goes missing. Mike is the one to come up with the idea to go out looking for him. Mike only keeps El around when he realizes she can help find Will. Mike is the only one that’s focused on after they find Will’s “dead” body. Mike is the only one out of the party members that holds proper hope that Will may still be alive.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In season 2 he was the only one that went outside of the arcade to check where Will had gone. He was the only one that noticed Will was being extra quiet that day at school. He panicked when he couldn’t find Will, “Will what’s wrong? I couldn’t find you, are you hurt? I’m gonna get you home, okay? I’m gonna get you home”, He purposely volunteered himself to go check on Will and then proceed to stay with Will in the hospital for days afterwards. He was the only one out of his friends that stayed with Will in the shed when he was possessed.
Edit: also wanted to point out how in the crazy together scene when Will told Mike about the mindflayer he said “just please don’t tell the others okay? They wouldn’t understand.” Implying that Will trusts Mike the most and that he thinks only Mike would understand what he’s going through.
& Will only yelled Mike’s name when he was having an episode before the crazy together scene happened. He didn’t yell Lucas’s name or Dustin’s or even Jonathan or his mums, his first instinct was to call Mike for help. Both of these things furthermore prove my point that their friendship is different from the others and they’re much closer
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Again, the show focuses on Will and Mikes friendship the most this season. Not their friendships with Lucas or Dustin or anybody else, just with eachother. None of the other friendships in the show have done anything like this. Hell none of the friendships in the show ever GET as much attention and focus as Mike and Will do throughout the seasons. They are treated so differently. Still don’t believe me?
Season 3
One of the most iconic Byler scenes is the rain fight scene. Now I'm not really gonna talk about how obviously romantic this scene is by itself. But how it contrasts Will and Lucas's apology scene. The contrast between these two scenes is such a huge piece of evidence to me and I'm surpsired I don't see it around more
(Thank you to this video for saving me while I was trying to find the scenes https://youtu.be/u-rLx10eROw?si=vdGoQNtnXU103iZt )
Here’s the two scenes mixed together for reference:
Byler’s fight
In the Byler scene, it has buildup. Will getting mad and then bursting out of the room, Mike follows him while Lucas stays behind. Once they get outside, the lighting is dark and blue. The music playing in the background is somber. The way both characters talk and act makes you know that this is a serious scene. The aftermaths of Will going to his house and crying as he destroys castle Byers. And Mike and Lucas biking out to find him in the rain. You could make the argument that Lucas being there makes this scene bad proof, but it focusing more on Mike then Lucas tells you otherwise.
Lucas’s apology
It’s super rushed, you barely even notice it. It’s super random and isn’t focused on at all, it just starts with Lucas saying he’s sorry and Will saying it doesn’t matter and it’s pretty much over. The lighting is bright, our minds are more focused on trying to get ready to trap Billy then the actual conversation they’re having. Neither Lucas or Will react to it afterwards. You could literally skip this scene and you wouldn’t miss anything.
So why have such a useless scene in the middle of nowhere?
The Byler rain fight is such an important scene to show how Mike and Wills friendship has gone downhill, to show the change between children and teenagers, and also to hint at Will's sexuality. The Lucas and Will scene is just so useless and random and could've been left out, but the way it contrasts the Byler fight scene makes me think that its only purpose was to show the difference between Mike and Wills friendship together vs anybody else's, and nothing else. Because why else have it there? If Mike and Wills scene wasn't meant to have a deeper meaning, then why make it as dramatic as it was? Why build it up the way they did?? If it was platonic the scene would've been more similar to the Lucas scene and/or toned down a LOT.
It's undeniable that the Duffers where trying to show us something with these two scenes
Season 4
You can tell there’s clearly tension between Mike and Will when they reunite in the airport, which is very odd. Mike and Will are best friends, and again, Mike wouldn’t act this way with any of his other friends. He didn’t even act this way with El
Tumblr media
Mike then later admits that he was being an asshole to Will, and we get that beautiful “friends. Best friends.” Scene.
Now, I want you to rewatch that scene and pretend that Will is Max or Lucas or Dustin or Erica or Steve or Jonathan or anybody Mike is friends with. But you can’t. It just feels too wrong and too romantic, doesn’t it? It seems weird as well, because we know full well Mike wouldn’t say something like that to any of his other friends. He’s never had a conversation like that with any of his other friends, either. This is because they’re just that. Friends. So why should it be any different for Will and Mike?
This is the same for any scene with Mike and Will. Season 4 or not
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And if you seriously cannot notice the difference between Mike and Wills friendship vs anybody else’s, you need to do a rewatch
Anyways, there’s probably more stuff I could add but I’m gonna leave it at that for now. If you have anything to add leave it in the comments! Thank you for reading

also wait i need more info on pw saying he started girls to the front bc like lmao anyone who knows anything would be able to clock that lie
In Where Are Your Boys Tonight, there is a chapter about Pete Wentz's involvement in the hardcore scene. This chapter is 25 pages long. It quotes one woman, who is not famous and has made no significant contributions to emo or music, as stating exactly two sentences. Everyone else quoted is a man, they are all quoted several times, and they all get to say several paragraphs.
Tumblr media
I don't think everything in the chapter was bad, and I think some things were portrayed well, but to me it is clear that the author (who is a Brand New fanboy, and white) was attempting to evade discussion of any feminist issues in relation to hardcore and shield himself from criticism of his choices in covering this by finding a random woman off the street who happened to say something convenient for the preselected narrative.
Racetraitor started at the end of the 90s and Riot Grrrl started in the early 90s. Pete Wentz was also a temporary bass player in high school. It is completely ridiculous to suggest that they invented girls to the front. Based off the LinkedIn profile of the person who stated the above, (who is also white) she would have been approximately 10-14 years old when Racetraitor started. It was at best very irresponsible for the author to quote her as an authority on this, but in the words of another Tumblr user on this book, "The lack of fact checking was the point."
While they were not a Hardline band and primarily focused on racial justice, Racetraitor did have a brief member in the band who identified as Hardline. Andy, who was also in Racetraitor, was in a band with Sean, the founder of Hardline, called Vegan Reich. A third person in the band (Eric) did not identify as Hardline but supported the movement. Pete Wentz has the ecology symbol tattooed. He got the tattoo when he was 15. The ecology symbol was the logo for Hardline. It's not clear if that was why he got the tattoo or if he got the tattoo for another reason.
Hardline (and a lot of hardcore bands) claimed they supported "equality for everyone including gender equality" (which is where this "I'm not sexist I invented feminism" attitude comes from). However, a lot of hardcore bands, especially Hardline bands, believed abortion was the same as the Holocaust, believed abortion providers were equivalent to Nazis, believed women should not be able to access birth control, and advocated for the extermination of all gay people.
Sean, the founder of hardline, referred to feminists who disagreed with his views as "yeastie infected" and "lard cunts" and specifically referred to "feme cunts" who didn't like a specific journalist in this way. According to Reddit (which is not the most reliable source but whatever), that person was fired from Maximumrocknroll for printing inflammatory columns about feminism, including critiquing equal pay and Smithsonian Magazine advocating for more women in STEM. Sean later tried to say he wasn't sexist and this was a joke.
Anybody who is arguing these people were not sexist and invented feminism is poorly informed or is arguing in bad faith. I think it was dishonest and irresponsible to print this without offering any other perspectives, especially given the context that this book was written by a white guy who is arguing that Brand New were the main driving force behind emo, something that is opinion at best and is often supported by blatantly misrepresenting core facts. His other coverage of women and women's issues throughout the book is also clearly very biased and dishonest while being portrayed as objective, which I think is a big reason why Fall Out Boy were the biggest band to sign off on it.
Like, it is obvious (implicitly) the author believes Brand New are at risk of not receiving enough credit for this because they were cancelled by MeToo or whatever. However, this is -- again-- poorly backed opinion at best.
For example, at the very end of a chapter about Brand New, Jason of AbsolutePunk is quoted as saying that after Brand New released The Devil and God, a bunch of bands "made an attempt at a rock opus." Sisky is then quoted as saying "In 2006, there was a big clash between early 2000s emo and everything that was going to come after." Then it immediately cuts to a chapter about The Black Parade. The implication that the author is leading the audience to believe is obviously that The Devil and God inspired The Black Parade.
However. This book fails to mention that in 2004, prior to Brand New beginning recording on The Devil and God in 2005, Green Day released American Idiot. Furthermore, MCR and Green Day toured together in 2005. Finally, The Black Parade came out a month before The Devil and God.
I don't even hate Brand New that much and they have good songs. However, it is obvious this book misrepresents a lot of facts in order to present this fantasyland narrative that instead of being a middling indie band with a cult following that never really went anywhere, Brand New were The First Band Ever Borned and are the sole source of inspiration for any band with credit, and are being oppressed out of their rightful legacy by the mean feminists. That just isn't what happened. Sorry. And this of all books is the one Fall Out Boy chose to endorse. Whatever.
The author also quoted someone in a band that has made songs "satirizing" feminism and rape culture (She Ain't Your Baby and Problematic by Screeching Weasel) as stating that nothing predatory occurred on Warped. This is the only discussion of sexual assault outside of the author's own platitudes to the audience in relation to his (poor) coverage of Brand New...despite several women being interviewed. The women who are interviewed (primarily random irrelevant people) are instead asked bizarre questions about Pete Wentz being gay.
Tumblr media
LASTLY AND PERHAPS MOST EGREGIOUSLY, this book spends a ton of time arguing over whether or not Paramore were an industry plant. For example. The ghostwriter of Pete's book said this.
Tumblr media
I'm going to be honest, I have also always felt weird about Paramore because yes, it is weird and uncomfortable and industry plant-y for FBR to sign a 15 year old in a Christian band or whatever and pretend it is 100% real. However, he clearly has issues with her that are apparent in his coverage including 1) Writing an article quoting from commenters on AbsolutePunk about whether or not they would "still hit it" after she dyed her hair 2) Constantly "addressing rumors" she was pregnant or “hooking up with various members of pretty much any band you can think of" and 3) Writing column stating she and Gwen Stefani are interchangeable and were "pretty girls with a dye job showing the guys how it's done (blech)".
Both he in his original coverage in the 2000s/2010s, and the author of this book, did not address the elements of homophobia or other stuff going on that contributed to the Paramore split, such as the guy who left speaking against Hillary Clinton (running in the presidential primaries at the time) shortly before all of that, when Paramore have made it clear those things were also major factors. Instead, they focused solely on this debate over Hayley being an industry plant and getting too much credit compared to her male bandmates and them not getting paid enough. The book also intentionally misrepresented how one of the brothers that left rejoined the band, is still performing with them to this day, and has been doing so for almost a decade, and instead made it sound like Hayley permanently kicked both of them out.
Most egregiously, the author did not interview Hayley or anyone else actually in Paramore but made it appear as if Hayley was interviewed by the author and inserting the fact that she wasn't into the copyright section at the back rather than a disclaimer at the front like most oral histories. Because again. This is an intentionally dishonest book and I would say it was irresponsible for Fall Out Boy to sign off on it, but that was probably the point.
While Pete Wentz didn't say any of this this directly, he and Patrick were the only major emo people who agreed to be interviewed for the project and presumably brought their massive entourage of losers with them. I assume FOB's management signed off on everything as well. Gerard, Ryan, Brendon, and Hayley all declined. Nobody made them do this, they were a huge reason if not the main reason why this was so successful and went from a self-published Amazon project to a real book deal, and I think it was stupid and irresponsible and dishonest for Pete Wentz and his massive entourage to endorse this and I think a big motivating factor for so many people to be a part of it was the very specific, cowardly, and dishonest way it approached women's issues, and the fact that it was being written during MeToo in summer 2020.

Random headcanons of Alastor and his child!reader
This will mix headcanons from both the living and the afterliving times.
Tw: Controlling behavior, implied cannibalism, references to murder.
This is not proof read so I apologize for any grammar and vocabulary mistakes.
Tumblr media
Your home is always filled with music. Be it the radio, a record player or him singing. There's always someone playing a tune. Even now at the hotel you can always find him in one of the common rooms humming a song or with his cathedral radio on.
Loves dancing with you, you'll be helping him cook and next thing you know he is swirling you around the room, music mixing with your combined laughter.
From a very young age, he will teach you to love the radio. He is immensely proud of his job (the legal one) and wants to share it with you.
Likes to treat your wounds and illness the traditional way, just like he used to when you were alive. You got a scratch? He is cleaning it for you and bandaging it up. You are down with something? He'll wrap you in blankets with a hot water bottle and feed you old family remedies and warm soup. If the wound or illness is way too severe to his liking, he will immediately make it go away with a snap of his fingers, otherwise he just likes to act like your caregiver and mother hen you.
Really loves to pull the 'single hardworking dad' act that makes the mothers and female teachers at your school swoon. He is not really interested in pursuing anything further with them, but boy, does he enjoy the attention.
He likes to check on you while you are sleeping. Sometimes he just stays there, quietly watching you sleep, his ever present smile growing bigger as a sense of pride fills his chest.
Lots of dad jokes, I think he's the only one who could pull it off and have everyone laugh. It goes with his radio host charisma and personality.
He does your hair. This man has singlehandledly researched and become well versed in the art of braiding hair. Braids, pigtails, or just brush it, you call it, you got it.
Alastor loves control and having power over people, he is the kind of dad that will subtly talk you out of doing something he doesn't approve of, just using his inmense charms and smooth talking skills to convince you into thinking this was your decision after doing some critical thinking. "Cher, I don't think you should do X, how about you do Y instead?" "I'm sure your friend is too busy to hang out today, why don't we go to the ice cream shop?" He won't ever put you down or make you feel bad about anything, but if you are deviating for the path that he has already set for you (the safe path) he will immediately persuade you to go back to the right way, his way. In Hell that aspect of him has become a million times worse, since he has already lost you once and has become someone with many dangerous enemies who wouldn't hesitate to use you to get back at him. His overprotectiveness and controlling behavior skyrocket when he becomes a demon, which eventually will come back to bite him in the ass.
Doesn't like having anyone question about your biological parents. He is your parent. You don't need anybody else.
Alastor is not fond of physical affection, unless he is the one initiating it. But, since he has had you since you were a baby, he has mostly grown used to your touch. He has become proficient enough in detecting your moods that he knows exactly when you are going to need a hug, a kiss or some other kind of physical comfort, so he can get ahead and start the contact first. He admits that one of his favorite ways nowadays to show affection to you is ruffling your fluffy hair, lightly tickling your ears, his eyes fill with joy when your ears get all twitchy.
Your room back at the hotel is a carbon copy of the one you had back when you were alive, but bigger, and with a private old timey bathroom. Alastor likes to come in whenever he pleases, he is the unliving embodiment of "I'm respecting your privacy by knocking but asserting my authority as your parent by coming in anyway". He even said so once. Word by word.
You can't stand Mimzy. Sorry, it's a fact, she always gets your name wrong and only comes by if she needs something from your dad. She seems to not be very fond of you either, can't understand why in Hell Alastor would waste his time so willingly just to take care of a snooty brat that ain't even his. But your father seems to like her enough, so you swallow up your critics.
When he was alive, and came back from a 'hunt', he always brought a little memorabilia for you, maybe some old watch, a fancy toy or trinket the victim had on them at that moment. Whatever little thing that wasn't too incriminating and pretty enough to be worthy of you. Now that you know the truth, you can't stop wondering with dread if every little thing he gifts you belonged once to a poor tormented soul that crossed in his path.
Might had fed you human remians in his stews. He utterly denies it, claiming that he would never do that to your delicate stomach. But the suspicious way his eyes quickly dart around the room, makes you think otherwise. It was the Great Depression after all, food was scarce. You'd rather not dwell too much on it or you will never eat anything ever again.
He is a monster, and it pained you to have been so blind all these years, but even after discovering his true nature, the only thing you could say about his parenting before that terrible night of the discovery, was that he was an excellent dad, a tad bit overbearing and overprotective, but a great parent nonetheless.

Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe has locked down a deal with Netflix months after making jarringly racist jokes during an October rally for President Donald Trump at Madison Square Garden.
“Kill Tony is coming to Netflix,” Netflix announced in a Monday post on X, referring to the comedian’s Kill Tony podcast. “We’re teaming up with Tony Hinchcliffe to turn the world’s #1 live podcast into 3 exclusive comedy specials – with the first premiering April 7.”
During the Trump rally, Hinchcliffe recited numerous “jokes” taking aim at Latinos, the island of Puerto Rico, Black people, Haitian people and Jewish people.
In one instance, he drew cheers when he asked the crowd, “Where are my proud Latinos at tonight?”
He then followed up by saying, “You guys see what I mean? [The border’s] wide open. There’s so many of them.”
“These Latinos, they love making babies, too,” Hinchcliffe added. “There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside just like they did to our country.”
He also referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage,” said Black people carve watermelons rather than pumpkins for Halloween and claimed that Jews are obsessed with money, among other “jokes.” He also echoed Trump’s ridiculous claim that Haitian immigrants are “eating the pets” in Springfield, Ohio.
Expectedly, Hinchcliffe received backlash after his racist remarks, including Puerto Rican music artists Nicky Jam and Bad Bunny, actress Aubrey Plaza, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and former Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz.
Instead of apologizing, Hinchcliffe doubled down in a November episode of his podcast.
“I apologize to absolutely nobody,” Hinchcliffe said. “Not to the Puerto Ricans, not to the whites, not to the Blacks, not to the Palestinians, not to the Jews, and not to my own mother, who I made fun of during the set. Nobody clipped that.”
“Perhaps that venue at that time wasn’t the best fucking place to do this set at,” Hinchcliffe added. “But in any matter, to the mainstream media and to anybody trying to slander me online: That’s what I do, and that’s never going to change.”

Katelyn the Firefist
Tumblr media
ITS FINALLY DONE
I'm not gonna lie I feel like you guys only made Katelyn win the poll because of the same name thing as like a joke but I think it turned out pretty good
I spent about 8 hours on this drawing alone, plus another 6 or so on other references and studies and I used procreate with only the default brushes
I referenced primarily Vi, Jinx, and Leblanc for her face and studied a lot of Noxian soldiers for the armor
I took the background from this fortiche because there was no way in hell I would have had the energy to draw it
I'll probably upload the speedpaint later this week if you guys want
also if anybody wants to try this out with another character here are some tips I've found
Use the Lasso Tool for the hair just trust me it's gonna be the most difficult part of shading and picking out shapes
whatever character you base the eyes off of DO NOT REFERENCE ANY OTHER PART OF THEIR FACE, otherwise it's just gonna look like that arcane character in a different wig
reference concept art as well as screenshots, as well as any other fortiche projects in the same artstyle like the KDA music video or the Seconds animatic
anyone who says you need a special brushpack is LYING, if you actually know how to render I know you can just use a round brush but I used a square brush and an dry ink for the details cause I'm not as good at it
no matter what you do it's not gonna look perfect because in reality if you wanted to draw the same character multiple times and be consistant you need to get a 3D model and THEN do the painting and just pose the character, which I would actually do if not for my laptops inability to open blender

Watching SLOTLT:
....Okay... we need to talk about Sodor's Legend Of The Lost Treasure. Many TTTE fans love it and call it "the best special" and "the peak of CGI Thomas." But we need to face facts. It's far from everyone's favorite and actually the Most Controversial of CGI Thomas.
My stance? I say people who don't like SLOTLT are right- just for not for the valid reasons. Prepare to be roasted.
The movie heavily flanderizes Thomas and ruins his character development throughout the series. It practically takes everything that made him unlikable in the Miller era and turned him back into a complete, 100% irresponsible idiot. Take The Great Discovery, a special VERY similar in plot for example. After his trick on Stanley that demolishes the tower, he actually shows full remorse and tries to make up for his mistake.

In Lost Treasure, that is not the case. Here at the start of the movie he's just like, "I'm number one so I can do what I want!"
Tumblr media
And it's not until THE DAY AFTER the Dynamite Incident that it finally sinks in and he's like "Aw it was my fault..."
Tumblr media
Plus, he would've been mature enough by now not to let Gordon's teasing get to him. In Season 5, he literally tells Percy to just ignore George's insults and simply does just that.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why are insults such a big deal to him NOW that he has to run of with Gordon's coaches and derail them??? This doesn't make sense! Yes, he is meant to be cheeky, but how the hell do we go from how he's written in Tale Of The Brave to this?!
Tumblr media
So much dumb shit happens that could've and should have been easily avoided. The accidents Thomas cause would've have been stopped in a heartbeat if they ACTUALLY REMEMBERED drivers and firemen exist. When Thomas falls into the cavern? HOW THE HELL are they so unaware of the workmen shouting trying to stop them?! How do they not once look where he is going and see the signs?!
Tumblr media
They're not even trying! Look at them in the cab! Up until the accident happens they're practically just chillin'! You're not fooling anybody! Are they high on crack in there??? Are they paying rent in there??? Do they just spontaneously go blind and deaf??? Hello?!?! Wake up and control your fucking train!!!
Let's cut back to the coaches. WHY is Thomas shunting Gordon's coaches when that is NOT his job anymore now that he has his branchline?! That's the whole reason the big engines went on strike and Percy was brought to the railway! Topham has HOW many shunters now? And you're SERIOUSLY gonna tell me not a single one could've done it instead? Look how empty Knapford is!
Tumblr media
What about the Diesel Boxcab introduced this season? Why isn't he in this movie to do that instead? Did he die?
Overall, SLOTLT is just a pointless Great Discovery rehash sprinkled with stale RWS references, (which help set up this movie's god awful plot in the first place) returned characters, and cinematic visuals and music pretending it's actually a good movie with a likeable plot. Not only does it take the three-strike formula and fail miserably at making it good, (The three accidents Thomas causes) it can't even remember the show's continuity properly for God's sake! For a what's supposed to be a tribute to the RWS, this is not a good look at all, Andrew Brenner. You did not cook.
What's even worse is that for all these years everyone in this fandom just blindly glazes over everything this movie does wrong and then act like it's illegal for someone not to like it and it's disgusting. This movie single-handedly damaged the entire TTTE fandom for 10 years. 10. FUCKING. YEARS.
We already had a special that did this kind of plot so much better in every way. WHY are we doing it AGAIN??? Why wasn't The Adventure Begins enough for this year???
We did not need this. We did not need any of this shit. Just skip to Season 20 and you are not missing too much, I promise you. Peak CGI Thomas my ass. HALF the CGI specials are the least bit more deserving than this shitshow.
This movie sucks. We do not speak of it, I'm done talking about it, it's not canon, it doesn't deserve to be, it never existed. It's dead to me.
All it's got going for it are the visuals, voice acting and music, Donald, Douglas, Alfie and Oliver, Max, Monty, and Daisy returning, and the Miniature Engines introduced. That's it.
Just because a movie looks 'cinematic' does not automatically make it good.
