#it's insane seeing all the rot in one place lmao

[tinytonestar]

Happy New Year everyone! Sorry for drawing Astarion for 4 months, it may continue for another 12.

[bella-goths-wife]

Hi! Love your work! It's always so good! And how I feel the Vees' reaction to finding out pet reader is dating. Especially another "lowlife" demon (so most of hell lmao)-

Val: (If they're attractive, he tries to convince them to work under him. If not, he'll shoot them then tries to convince Vox if he can punish you for being a bad girl~)

Velvette: Ew, gross. Even you can fucking do better than that! *Beats you.*

Vox: *Is already hiring bounties and threatens to kill them if they fail. Reprimands and revokes what remaining privileges you had left. You get locked in your room with electrical burns too.*

Hiya, thank you so much!

I’m gonna do crushing instead of dating because let’s be honest here you’d never get as far as them complimenting you without the Vs sniffing your partner out and disposing of them :)

The Vs reaction to pet having a crush

Warnings: abuse, dark content, SA mentions, murder, punishments Valentino, hypocrisy, possessiveness, forced hair cutting, maiming, forcing reader to watch SA

Vox:

Vox noticed something was different about you

You had been quite….. cheery lately

You had requested to have more days working with Vox, and when he questioned you on it you had just stated that you knew it was his busy season since the extermination will have destroyed many technological items

Vox was ecstatic, and so so proud you were finally coming around to your role and wanting to learn about the business and help

Every meeting he had he would introduce you as his doll of an assistant, even if the client had seen you a thousand times over and had probably seen vox abuse you at one point

Vox’s enthusiastic bubble was quickly burst when he came back from his coffee break and heard you talking to one of his camera men

He even heard you let out a giggle with a blushing face as the lowly demon made some sort of off joke about your fawn ears and called you his little fawn

His? His little fawn? How dare this lowly little demon boy presume to call voxs possession his

You are vox’s daughter pet and that had to be respected

Vox acted like nothing happened and quietly dismissed you for the afternoon as a ‘treat’

He then called the your little crush into his office and threatened him with all sorts of things until he agreed to stay away from you or be insulting to you until you lost interest

If the demon refused, he’s dead

He’ll be killed torturously before his body is left in display in the basement, where Vox will take you to see what happens when you try and get cozy with other demons

Vox will lock you in the room with the body until his skin begins to rot and the smell makes you pass out as punishment

You’ll also be getting the shock collar treatment for a few months afterwards, just to remind you of your position at the company

After that, he’ll lay you in bed and strokes your head while he tells you that that demon didn’t want you for anything other than your body, just like the men and women from when you were alive

He places a fatherly kiss on your forehead as he tells you that he only does this stuff to teach you your lessons, and to make sure you remember that your owned and can never exist outside of him and the Vs

You’ll be watched carefully after that, to make sure you don’t get anymore ideas about having crushes on demons who weren’t worth the dirt under your shoes

Velvette:

She thought you must be an idiot or insane to think you could form a connection with a demon outside of her and the Vs

She assumed you wouldn’t be that stupid

But imagine her shock when she sees you blushing bright red as you talk to one of her newer models

She even heard you let out high pitched giggles at the models pathetic jokes

And she practically saw red when she saw the model use her filthy fucking hands to touch you and move a strand of your hair behind your fawn like ears

She lost it at the sight and demanded that everyone but you, her and the model left the room, and they all scurried out like rats to avoid her wrath

She berated you for trying to outsmart her and crushing on a lowlife demon who wasn’t worth anything

She hit you over and over again until she say you in the chair and turned her attention to the model

She made you take hold of some scissors and forced you with threats to cut all of the models hair off, and after fear got the best of you, you did it

You cut off her hair, but that wasn’t good enough for velvette

She took the scissors from your hands and slashed across the girls cheek, leaving what would be a deep scar as she claimed that no one would want to take her on now

She grabbed your crying figure by your shoulders and laughed about how you could ever let yourself be attracted to such an ugly lowly demon, you obviously did not laugh along

You had to wear her collar for the next few months with the lead attached, velvette claimed it would stop you acting like a bitch in heat and costing her more models

Velvette never liked to share anything, even her pets weren’t an exception

So it’s fair to say that whoever your crushing on at any time will be destroyed by velvette, mentally and physically

Valentino:

Valentino had hired a new camera man for his newest videos, claiming that he needed a fresh eye

So it was one of the rare occasions that Vox allowed you into Valentino’s studio during filming since Valentino had tasked you with showing the new guy around as he was far to busy with his little angel dust

So you had done just that and showed the new guy around, you just didn’t think he’d be this handsome and charming

His words melted you like butter and he practically had you wrapped around his finger

At first it was amusing for Valentino to see his little pet so lovestruck and foolish when he returned from his little play date with angel

But it quickly turned into a jealous annoyance as you gave the demon genuine smiles that Valentino had yet to receive after you working for him and the Vs for many years now

He squeaked in annoyance whenever he’d see you laugh at the camera man’s jokes or you’d smile at him while looking at him with lovestruck awe

So when you went off to do your daily tasks, he approached the camera man and stated that he had a new offer

He offered the camera man a job to film a video with him being the star and Val being his co-star

The camera man was extremely against the idea but after a lot of money was offered and coercion from val, he eventually accepted after much pressure was applied

So the camera was in a gruelling filming session and after it was done, he couldn’t look you in the eyes when you passed him in the hall

You became very confused on why he was avoiding you, and you became even more confused and dread filled when Valentino had called you into his office for an impromptu editing session for his newest video

You were disgusted as you watched your crush be practically assaulted as Valentino forced you to use your ability to edit the sounds

You threw up multiple times, but Valentino still forced you to watch and edit

After you were done, Valentino caressed your face and stated that only he and the other Vs would care for you as everyone else just care about money or fame

He patted you on the shoulder before handing you over to a very pissed of Vox for a punishment for your lovesick actions

Any punishment Vox gave you felt like nothing compared to having to watch the person you had made a connection with get assaulted by your abuser and having to edit the sounds

You stayed away from Valentino’s workers after that, you even avoided angel for a few months after the incident

You feared what a jealous rage might do to them, and to you

[multishipperofgaydeadwizards]

Thinking about James/Remus and seriously questioning why it's not a thing cause

1) the whole sun/moon lore I was talking about earlier

2) their shipname would be somn like "moonchaser" or "sunreader" or somn

3) it fits right into the running gag that James has a thing for people being mean to him

4) imagine all the possible angst mhmm mhmm Remus pining over James, finding out he likes his best friend, finding out she likes him back, losing him again and again ooooohhhhh just

5) but they're also perfect cause all Remus ever needs is to be loved and all James knows is to love someone else

6) ok but leave the angst, focus on the fluff. The possibilities omg friends to lovers just this time (minus all the usual angst that comes in wolfstar) and they're both just dumb oblivious idiots in love and it's so cute

7) thinking about all of this now I think what you said is right, people don't ship Remus with anyone other than Sirius but I think that's cause Sirius actually doesn't have many ships left then? Cause think about it like this: Sunreader, Bartylus, Marylily, Evan and Emmeline, Panda and Xeno, where does that leave Sirius? Sure Pete is there but...

8) ooooh ok going down this pipeline, for your consideration: Peter and Sirius. Omg it would make the "Sirius put in trial instead of Peter" thing sooooo much more ansgty ohhoo my brain is reeling rn

9) ok focusing back on moonchaser. They would make such a cute couple honestly. James would read all the books Remus reads and leaves lil doodles for him to find later. He would go to all the quidditch practices he can to support his bf. And he would right poetry and stuff about how hot James is.

10) ohhh They would share glasses omggg poor Remus grows up thinking everyone has shit vision then one day he wears James's as a joke and voila the world in HD

I'm so ngl, your influence on my brain has become on the best influences it has ever had cause omg all this potential all this angst and fluff I love this new me mhmm mhmm

hsirbdij omggggg I love this sm!!! thank you for sharing your brain with me.

sunreader sounds so gorgeous. I'm going insane. I love love LOVE the name!

1) yeah are literally the sun and the moon! they are perfect!

3) lmao. so true. I love the idea of remus being super sarcastic towards james and james swoons at every mean comment and tries very hard not to (he fails miserably)

4) urghhhhh not the unrequited feelings while having to be a supportive bestie trope (my beloved). I can imagine how mad it drives remus to watch them like each other, but being to scared to admit it. imagine the heartbreak when remus sees harry alias the combination of his parents

5) yesss. remus needs someone to love him even through all of his flaws, someone who isn't his parents and james who is literally the embodiment of love

6) "everyone can see it, but them" trope fr. it's them idfk

7) you make a fair point, but there are sooooooo many characters living in the marauders characters that no one ever uses. you could ship sirius with so many characters that no one ever talks abt (I'm currently working on a post with all the characters that I could find so that they're all in one place)

8) peter and sirius my loves <3 no one talks about them (me included whoops-). they have such a big angst potential that people just seem to be ignoring (once again bc most people refuse to leave the wolfstar bubble and just refuse to ship peter with anyone in general)

9) they would be the definition of tooth rotting fluff. they would make everyone sick with how sweet they are. couple goals fr

10) remus is me fr. the day I got my glasses was eye-opening lmao

glad to see that I have this kind of effect on people. I said it to you before but I'll say it again: welcome to the way more funnier side of being a multishipper hehehehe

also: I think I'm in love with you. marry pls, I'm begging 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 (/j... unless)

[gyubasevin]

kim jiwoong nsfw a-z

pairing; reader x jiwoong, i tried to keep everything as gender neutral as i could think <3

rating; 18+!!! minors dni i will hunt u down and block u so hard

genre; smut, maybe a little fluff???

notes; not really proofread, also might make this a series for zb1 legal line?? idk the jiwoong brain rot is real bad for me rn so here i am. (ha get it) also sorry if my grammar or wtv is horrendous im not the smartest im just here to entertain LMAO

a = aftercare: what are they like after sex?

100% showering you in love after sex, jiwoong would refuse to leave your side until he was positive you were okay after talking to you to calm you down. even when he finally did leave it was only to go run the two of you a bath and get something to clean the both of you up.

b = body part: their favorite body part on their body and their s/o?

on him he loves his voice, he always knows exactly what to say and how to say it, its a h u g e flex of his and it takes every bone in his body to not let everyone know just how turned on he can get you from talking alone.

on you he loves your collarbone/neck area?? one of his favorite ways to pass time is running his lips along your skin, loving these places so much bc of how sensitive they are on you.

c = cum: anything to do with cum

most ppl would assume he loves seeing you covered in his cum most and while he does, there's nothing more he loves than HIMSELF actually being covered in YOUR cum. he adores the physical evidence of how good he makes you feel, whether that's you giving him a facial or creaming all over his cock he loves it more than he could ever say.

d = dirty secret: what’s a dirty secret that they have?

he secretly has a thing for spit i think, he often imagines spitting in your mouth or how much he loves the way you drool when taking him in your mouth, adoring the fucked out look on your face that comes with it, he thinks its so cute.

e = experience: how experienced are they?

he is definitely not inexperienced, i imagine he has only done anything with his close lovers and not being really one for hooking up at all. he might just be okay at first but once he gets to know your body, you will wish he hadn't. ;)

f = favorite position: what’s their favorite position?

100% missionary, he loves being bent over top of you with his face in your neck, listening to how perfect you sound in his ear. ofc knowing how crazy it drives him all you can manage to moan out are the sweetest praises for him, how he's the only one who can make you feel so good, how he stretches you out so perfectly, like his cock was made just for you. its your favorite too, so obsessed with him everything down to the way his sweat drips down on your skin drives you insane, your senses being overwhelmed by just him. (i know im down bad.)

g = goofy: are they humorous in the moment?

it can start out a bit goofy at times, but i think once actually getting into it jiwoong isn't ever really goofy unless trying something new you're worried about he might act less serious so you know its still just him, for the most part though no.

h = hair: are they well kept down there?

he keeps things trimmed and tidy but not completely bald

i = intimacy: what are they like during the moment, romance wise?

jiwoong is the s w e e t e s t during sex, making you feel good makes him feel good and he mostly there for you pleasure rather than his own. he sees sex as a very intimate thing and he loves just being there in the moment just the two of you, never letting you forget just how much he loves you.

j = jack off: how do they masturbate?

i don't see him masturbating too often, only if for some reason the two of you can't see each other for awhile. otherwise he figures why do it himself when he has a perfectly good partner who's more than willing to help him out!!!

k = kink: do they have any kinks?

praise kink - both giving and receiving praise can make him cum in seconds flat pleasepleaseplease praise him

voyeurism - he doesn't like to share but sometimes when he is alone he gets off to the thought of someone else watching just how well he destroys you, OR the idea of making you watch him touch himself, squirming in your seat cause you want to touch him so badly :(

l - location: where do they like to do it?

jiwoong is a simple man, he enjoys doing it in the bed 99.9% of the time, although he does like to do it in the shower sometimes if he's really feeling frisky.

m = motivation: what gets them turned on?

i imagine jiwoong gets turned on s o easily, if you even give him a certain look he is suddenly all bricked up and he can't keep his hands off of you, he's not shy to let you know when he needs a hand. his #1 turn on is when you crawl to straddle his lap, he loves when you take control even if its only a little bit.

n = no: what would they say no to?

definitely not into any bodily fluids other than cum from either of you, spit is good but that's about it. he also isn't into anything that would hurt you too bad even if you ask for it he would just kiss your lips and sweetly suggest something less intense i think

o = oral: how are they when it comes to oral sex?

he is definitely not bad with his mouth, but for sure more skilled in the hand department. his head alone is good ofc, but he knows how to work you just right with his fingers and mouth combined he will have you finishing on his tongue in minutes if that.

p = pace: are they slow and sensual or fast and rough?

he is a good middle ground tbh, its not TOO slow but its sensual and slow enough that you can both enjoy the intimacy of the moment rather than fucking into you like a wild animal (which he could also do if you beg him nice enough!!!)

q = quickie: what do they think about quickies?

not super into quickies, would rather just tease you all day long and make you wait until you get home since he knew he himself is fine until then. that way he can really take his time with you and on top of that he gets to listen to you beg for him alllll day long, its a win win for him.

r = risk: are they willing to go the extra mile?

the only big risk jiwoong is willing to take is being caught, like he loves to fuck you in the dorms right when he knows other members are on their way back or something but when it comes to pain for either one of you he is VERY hesitant, he sees sex as a way to feel good so he is more into praise and body worship, things like that.

s = stamina: how long do they last? how many rounds can they go?

jiwoong is the type to make himself last a loooong time and make you personally finish multiple times, rather than go multiple rounds he prefers to tire you out then finish :)

t = toys: do they own any toys? do they use it on themselves or their s/o?

he probably has a wand vibrator for you whenever he REALLY wants to tease you but he doesn't use it super super often, then FOR SURE like a pocket pussy of some kind for when he's alone, he l o v e s to send you videos of him using it when you're apart for awhile just to really mess with you.

u = unfair: do they like to tease?

tease is practically his middle name, he hardly will touch you unless you're already begging him first.

v = volume: how loud are they? what sounds do they make?

hes not afraid to make noise at all but really he is just a groaner, especially when he cums he loves to cover you in kisses and groan in your ear, unless you flip roles for the night and its you fucking and teasing him ohohoh he will whimper for you until the sun starts to rise.

w = wild card: a random headcanon for the character

tbh im too lazy to do this one rn... when i find some kind of motivation ill just post a one shot or something I GOT U!!!!!

x = x-ray: what’s going on under that clothing?

jiwoong is just average length and girth i feel like, 100% circumcised also you cannot convince me otherwise.

y = yearning: how high is their sex drive?

veeeery high, he could easily fuck every single day if you wanted to, he doesn't initiate it very much because if he did then it would probably just be overwhelming for you.

z = zzz: how fast do they fall asleep after?

he makes sure you are well taken care of before he falls asleep, so normally he will be up for at least half an hour afterwards, sometimes more if you just had an intense session.

The Story of Minglan

LMAO, granny is a queen!

Granny is the smartest person in this house and will not be so easily manipulated 🤣🤣

Molan really screwed herself here in a multitude of ways by setting up her sisters for punishment.

***

Aww, these babies 🤗

***

God, he's cute, but then he also comes out and says things like that and I can't decide whether or not to smack him.

I am on Manniang's side here. Poor woman.

Imagine your husband, for whom you risked your life and bore him two children, having this conversation right in front of you and you having to enthusiastically agree that yes, you don't mind if he marries another woman whom he'll place above you 🙄🙄

Murder. Murder for all of them.

***

So, find someone who is weak and easily manipulated because no self-respecting woman with any choice in the matter will agree to this.

Disgusted by everything going on here.

***

Again. I realize she has no choices here if she wants to live and her kids to eat, but jfc.

Team Manniang here. All men and their enablers can rot.

***

Ha! Three cheers for TGCF and Sanlang too! 😄

***

LMAO, I love him 🤣🤣

He's a dog, but he's cute and has the game down pat!

***

Aww, they are stupid cute, no doubt about it 🤗

***

LMAO, I love that he had to come and beg his first wife for this bs anyway 🤣🤣

Make him squirm, Big Madam! Make him pay!!!!!!!

***

I am cackling 🤣🤣

The biggest punishment for Molan, though, will be the fact that they are pulling her out of the academy. I know she is mean and awful, but she is the definition of wasted potential. If she had been born in another age, she could have been great.

***

LOL, what is her fucking endgame?

THERE IS NO CHANCE THAT SHE WITH ALL HER "EXPERIENCE" DOES NOT KNOW WHAT POLITICS ARE GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES HERE.

***

Murder, Big Madam!

I keep telling you, you must resort to killing them all! Swallowing your resentment like this for years, you will only end up with an ulcer.

***

The irony of someone illiterate being an authority in education 🙄

Hell society.

***

LMAO, she is so lazy, but it is kicking her two brain cells into gear to figure out how to work less and be pampered more in the future 🤣

***

LMAO, love the aunt 🤣🤣

She's insane, but she has the spirit! Also, considering how many times I've begged people on this show to start resorting to poison, I can see her point!

***

Xiaodie? 💚💚

I'm so glad we get to find our what happened to her!

***

Poisons, lady.

Teach them to brew poisons. Nothing will cultivate their disposition better than getting rid of a shit husband. Or an overbearing mother-in-law. Or the fifth concubine he brings into your house.

***

Oh, shut up.

I am always inclined to be on her side because I love this actress and this entire system is bs, but she's just so unpleasant. She will be her own downfall because she will burn all bridges and have no one in her corner when she needs it.

[paradoxcase]

Chapter 22 of Nona the Ninth

There is a broken skull again here, this seems to be happening somewhat randomly throughout this book and if there's a pattern I'm not able to see it

I like how they try to come up with every possible thing they think Ianthe would call her to train Nona to respond to, and then when Ianthe actually greets her in person, she calls her "Harry" and it was all for nought, lmao

It really feels like colored contacts (or I guess, white ones in this case) would be much less of a pain in the ass, here

I'm not sure this makes sense. Back in Harrow the Ninth, the Lyctors were reacting to being in proximity to Heralds even when they couldn't see them, or were even in any place where visible light from where the Herald was could reach where the Lyctors were, like when the Heralds were first landing on the outside of the Mithraeum

Actually, now that I'm remembering that part, I wonder if Nona acting like she is insane from Number Seven is going to make Ianthe suspicious, since back then Harrow's actual reaction to the Heralds was "is that all?"

That would be white-eyed people that Honesty saw on the Convoy, I would guess

Does she mean being the Angel/Messenger's bodyguard?

Harrow was so antagonistic to him the whole time she knew him, both before and after the brain surgery, and Palamedes is just like, oh, I miss Harrow looking at me like she wanted to kill me and assuming I was a serial killer so much. Like, I think even if Harrow hadn't surgically removed her memories of him, I still don't think she would have reacted all that positively to Palamedes greeting her like they were old buddies in the River bubble

Another strange thing that Nona likes to eat. I think rubber is technically organic material, but it might not actually be digestible by any animal, I wasn't able to find that out for sure. So far I think everything else she'd eaten has been something that some animal out there actually eats, except for the pencil lead and maybe the sand, probably

I guess some of BOE have some sort of mythology built up about Gideon's body after spending an extended period of time around it and seeing it not rotting? And it's now scarier to Pash than Ianthe is?

I'm very interested to see what she has planned here, because I have no idea whatsoever. I guess if they manage to completely destroy Naberius's body, that would be problematic for Ianthe, but beyond that?

Heh

Did Ianthe just like, kill everyone in the barracks and make them all into her own corpse army?

Why was she expecting Harrow to arrive at a particular time? It didn't sound like they were really timing anything beyond just getting there before Ianthe's time limit of "dusk" and it didn't sound from the description that it was actually dusk or that that much time had passed by the time they got there

It's interesting that Nona is referring to Ianthe here with he/him pronouns, while she originally referred to her with they/them pronouns during the broadcast, where I might have expected most people who weren't familiar with Ianthe or hadn't heard that name before to use he/him pronouns since she is using Naberius's body, and if Nona had used he/him there, I think it would have been more obvious that that was what was happening. Nona actually seems to refer to a lot of people with they/them pronouns that I think other people wouldn't - like, she referred to Pash and We Suffer as they/them in the scenes where their faces are revealed for the first time, and I think most people would be able to tell their gender in that context, so it would normally be reported. But Nona also doesn't seem to understand why other people assume Pyrrha uses he/him pronouns, so I wonder if just like, living with Pyrrha and Palamedes for all of the time that she can remember has affected her intuition for figuring out what gender people are by looking at them. Or, if she is actually Alecto, maybe she doesn't understand gender at all, and just picks up on what pronouns to use for people based on how other people refer to them, but I don't think anyone has used any gendered pronouns for Ianthe around her yet, so I'm curious what exactly transitioned her from assuming they/them pronouns to assuming he/him pronouns. She did refer to Ianthe as "Crown's boyfriend" earlier, but she also got corrected on that

[craacked-splatters]

"I know"

"Do u want to see what I added today?"

"Sure buddy"

(insane rambling below!)

Scrapbooks! Scrapbooks! Hell yeah!!

Hello to the 5 ppl seeing this👋 Ima be real Im running on 7 hours of sleep after 5day grind brain mushy rn and I scribbled everything maniacally by memory at 3am after having one of those revelation moments so I have no idea what I'm missing lmao. This is actually the first time drawing them like this 2. Really proud of it

and B4 u ask anything hear me out.

So like tmnt2012 mutant apocalypse am I right?

Yeah it's flawed and pacings off and stuff BUT! The implications it left behind are haunting and it has been stuck in my brain for years. One of the things that stuck with me was the fact that Raph and Don had stuff like April's tessen, Mikey's stuffed bear head, The Creeps containment jar, and Casey's skull(horrifying btw) with them and that it's like :((

I fully believe it was Donnie who collected and carried them everywhere in their car. Not only for Raph(to help with this memory)but also for himself.

Why? Well maybe I'm reading 2 much into it and it's also partly a HC of mine but also bc canonically Donnie has a bit of a hoarding habit collecting trinkets and pictures and stuff. He likes to keep things around that hold a lot of significant value to him.

We see this in The Creeping Doom during the intro

AND I swear he's got a literal wall of family photos in his lab somewhere I can't for the life of me find it but I know he did! He even took some to the farmhouse with him when they escaped during the invasion.

They're memories yk? Reminders..

Ok im having difficulty expressing this shit rn words r failing so like give me ur brain 4 a sec.

Imagine ur donbot.

You're stuck in a cold metal limbo for the rest of ur last remaining family members life. Everything and everyone you knew and cared about is dead and gone. Over thousands of species and ecosystems that made ur world unique wiped out. No more animals no more wild things no more blue clear skys. Death can't come for you. Not in a way that matters anymore.

And no matter where u go you are haunted by shadows of what once was. There are so many echoes and ghosts and cultures and stories and lives that were buried & left to rot by the gaping maws of fear & the desperate need to survive. No one cares for the past and the only other person around you can't remember it. Time will claim its domain again and there will be nothing left except empty metal husks to show sentience even existed in the first place.

Like holy shit he was just a kid bro and he never got the chance to even reach full adulthood!!! I can't possibly imagine the grief and guilt he must've carried with him all those years. He lost EVERYTHING

His family. His home. His world.

Did Donnie even get the chance to mourn??? Do u think his new body allowed it? Do u think he even ALLOWED himself to mourn? He had a hurt amnesiac brother who still needed to eat, who could still starve and bleed and die if they weren't careful enough.

So between his habits and the ✨Angst✨ and human pollution, him hoarding random ass things Wall-E style and making these shitty little scrapbooks or keepsakes didn't seem so far fetched to me. I also highly doubt there was enough time or resources to build shrines or graves in the middle of apocalypse. But yk honoring/preserving the memories of the things and ppl we love is natural for us so like SORRY if its a bit cringe of me wanting him to have SOMETHING to comfort him during the really bad days.

Even if its more bitter than sweet

Bonus doodads cuz I was indecisive:

The 1st was purple tinted cuz of donbot vision get it hehehe

[oscconfessions]

Tbh I really want to do a rewrite of Object Terror. I used to be a fan of it through like 2019-2021. I'm not a fan anymore because I realized just how bad the writing is. I feel like it could have potential if it wasn't so edgy and it actually fleshed out the characters.

Like wdym this new co-host, S'mores, is a demon? Wdym he's collecting souls for mf Satan himself to “prove his worth?” Why is he targeting these random ass contestants of an object show? Why not just go out and collect random stranger's souls off the streets? WHY ARE THERE DEMONS IN YOUR OBJECT SHOW?? And furthermore why is the elimination area hell itself? Why? How? Does this mean when the characters are eliminated via falling spikes they ACTUALLY die? That can't be because one of them, El Nudelo Spider, comes back. Unless S'mores somehow brought him back because they became friends in hell? Why? Does Satan know about that? Does S'mores have to get a pardon? Will he get in trouble if Satan finds out he brought a soul onto earth? There's just so much shit happening for no reason. It's unnecessary.

Don't even get me started on the characters. Literally half of them can be removed because they add NOTHING to the show. Plus they have like zero personality. We don't know a single thing about Skittle besides that she's nice and silly. Dude half your cast is nice and silly. Also this may be nitpicky but why is it such a sausage fest on the show? Out of 25 characters 19 of them are dudes. I'm not saying it has to be 50/50 with the gender but it's really noticeable here how unbalanced it is.

There's no reason for the show to have gore, either. The creator actually responded to this complaint with that the whole show takes place in another world and that the sentient objects aren't objects. Just ugly little creatures. Okay cool concept but 1. You don't have to have so much gore it makes the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise shudder, and 2. What?? If that's the case why does Beer shatter like a beer bottle should? Why does Magazine rip and tear like a paper? Why is it when Coffee Cup quite literally explodes, it's coffee? If they're ugly creatures shouldn't they just be flesh and stuff? Why does it change between objects dying like objects and them dying in the most gruesome ways?

The writing is absolute garbage too. It started off as a comedy but slowly turned into an edgy bloodbath with some comedy in it. Good lord, the comedy. Half of it is just screaming, and the other half is outdated memes. I mean it had the fucking mlg air horn in the first episode. It also had Beer and Trowel in episode 5 making out for literally seven seconds before it cuts to the Carpet and Stapler finding out and being shocked which like. Was that an attempt at comedy? I didn't find it funny at all I was hella uncomfortable when I first watched it (and now that I had to rewatch it again to see how long that was.) First off, why? That was completely unnecessary and the make out happens with no build up. Second what the fuck are Beer and Trowel? They're written as friends but then have a random make out session for no fucking reason. Shit I'm with Carpet and Stapler I was shocked too.

This was supposed to be a confession on how I'd write Object Terror but it turned into me complaining about it. Uh. Anyways What I'd do is remove some of the characters (ie Honey, Fart, Mint), give the rest personality and interests, get rid of the gore and maybe the demon shit. I'm tired this show makes my brain rot whenever I try to understand it. The demon and hell shit is what's bugging me.

I'm sorry for this long ass rant lmao I bet the people who didn't watch Object Terror probably think I'm insane

ASHLEY TALK TO US ABOUT THE SYMBOLISM OF LOUIS TAKING ARMAND'S COFFIN TO HIS FAMILY PLOT AND THEN BREAKING IT INTO PIECES I'm in a state lmao

GIRL, I'M FUCKED UP ABOUT IT, I'LL TELL YOU THAT MUCH!!

“Of course, it was several nights later before I realized he was gone. His coffin remained. But he did not return to it. And it was several months before I had that coffin taken to the St. Louis cemetery and put into the crypt beside my own. The grave, long neglected because my family was gone, received the only thing he’d left behind. But then I began to be uncomfortable with that. I thought of it on waking, and again at dawn right before I closed my eyes. And I went downtown one night and took the coffin out, and broke it into pieces and left it in the narrow aisle of the cemetery in the tall grass.” —IWTV

So much of this is just making me go batshit insane. 

First of all it’s equally hilarious and heartbreaking in my opinion that it takes Louis several nights before he even realizes Armand has actually Left, and I think that really speaks to how much Louis took his presence for granted while they were together. Like, they spent nearly a century by each other’s sides!! And even without the grief and numbness hanging over him, we know that Louis is a low maintenance kind of lover, so it makes sense that he’s not like hanging onto Armand, but idk just something about those first initial days makes me so SAD! 

was he waiting for Armand to come back? When did he realize that Armand wasn’t coming back? And most importantly, why did he keep Armand’s coffin for SEVERAL MONTHS before getting rid of it if he knew Armand wasn’t coming back????

To me, that last question sheds so much light on who Louis is as a person. It reminds me of when his brother died, and he sat staring at his corpse until his eyes went fuzzy. Whether Louis kept Armand’s coffin out of sentiment, out of delusional hope for Armand’s return, the coffin serves as a reminder of that loss, it’s the last thing Louis sees in the morning and the first thing he sees in the evening. I think he kept the coffin for several months as a self-punishment, because at this point he’s so incredibly numb, he needs Armand’s ghost to at least stir some anger or loneliness in him. 

But then after several months he does bring it to his family’s crypt in the cemetery and now I just have even more questions like did Louis ever bring Armand there while they were exploring New Orleans together? Did he ever tell Armand about his life as a mortal? 

We know from QOTD that Louis’ grave is marked 1766-1794 (which means he “died” 3 years after being turned, after burning down the plantation house and moving into the city). I only have to assume that the crypt was constructed around or shortly after Paul’s death, because we know Paul is buried there too. Anyway basically what I’m saying is that I’m highkey DEVASTATED at the thought of Louis returning to New Orleans after he thought he’d managed to escape with Claudia, and then when he returns to his graves, he doesn’t even have Claudia’s ashes to bury there; instead he’s left with Armand’s coffin, next to his and Paul’s grave, and it’s just this massive reminder of how he’s failed everyone he’s ever loved. 

(And then even after he leaves it there, HE CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT IT!! Again, more time passes and it’s the last thing he thinks about at dawn and the first thing in his head when he wakes up It’s not enough to lock away the memory of Armand to rot alongside his own grave, he has to destroy the coffin, he has to cut off all memory of Armand. And I just wonder if he does it because he can’t stand the thought of a vampire’s coffin in the same resting place as his mortal family, or if it’s because he genuinely wants to exorcise any remnants of Armand in his life).

TL;DR: I think Armand leaving Louis actually hurt him a lot more than he let on :(

[archduke-enver-gortash]

gortash 1, 6, 7

zeke 3, 4, 5

<3

(hi! i realised i had this finished but it was rotting in my drafts so i’m gonna queue this for my short absence lol.) i mean. gortash isn’t an oc but sure why not lol. you can always send me asks about him actually <3

1. What’s the maximum amount of time your character can sit still with nothing to do?

just sitting still? not a problem. his problem comes with finding something like this to be an utterly wasteful way to spend your time. i think even when he gets done with work for the day earlier than planned (which doesn’t happen often because his plans are so meticulous. usually some incident like someone he was meeting with unexpectedly not being able to attend was the cause here which he. doesn’t like because interruptions in schedule bad lol) he usually finds some other way to be productive. (like spending time in his workshop or drawing for example.)

but uh. how long would he be able to sit still? if a plan of his for some reason required him to sit still and do nothing for a fucking week, he’d gnash his teeth about it but he’d be able to do that and much more—everything that’s necessary will be done. otherwise? you absolutely will not catch him just lounging around lmao.

6. Do they consider laws flexible, or immovable?

definitely immovable 100%. there’s just a teeny tiny problem with this—this applies to his system only, his way of viewing the world, his values and laws for himself and the laws and values he inherently imposes on others. he considers himself a man who does whatever is necessary, and more importantly the only one who is capable of actually deciding on and carrying out order. judge, jury and executioner, y’know. his word is law and his word is what he will stick to until the very end and everyone else better follow suit if they don’t want to be mentally branded as a mistake by him lol. i think he sees it as there being a universal way the world should work, which is the system of the machine with him as the core, it’s just everyone else that doesn’t see this ‘truth’ at the moment & needs fixing.

7. What triggers nostalgia for them, most often? Do they enjoy that feeling?

to me, gortash is a man of the future. yes, he does so enjoy taking his trophies from past conquests and yes, he does not forget the past, dissecting and learning is a process that includes his past as well as others’ he so loves to dissect and use in his schemes, but i simply don’t see him as someone who would ever wallow in feelings like nostalgia. it’s not even that he doesn’t want to, he just doesn’t experience it in the first place.

to sort of illustrate what i mean: i think he definitely remembers his coronation to become archduke as a grand stepping stone in his plan and all, but that’s what being a man of the future and baldur’s gate’s saviour means, it’s exactly that—a stepping stone for more. he won’t simply rest on the steps now when he has so many more to climb. and when you’re at the top of the stairs, there is no need to look back either.

3. How do they put themselves to bed at night (reading, singing, thinking?)

not at all uhhhhhh. only joking. well. only half-joking? zeke, due to his paranoia about everything surrounding gortash, the nightmares that result from that & just his nature as someone who never fucking stops being on his feet, has insane troubles sleeping. with his severe malnutrition and lack of sleep just result in the biggest eye bags known to man. more like eye trenches or whatever.

anyways, the solution is just uhm. going so hard until he eventually passes out and then repeat that process. 😬. later on when he does finally trust his companions enough to eat a bit around them, shadowheart laces his food with a sleeping potion because she hasn’t seen him rest for more than half an hour consecutively and he understandably gets triggered (gortash never put mind-altering drugs into zeke’s food, stuff made him sick for example was what was commonly used instead, because he needs him to be aware of his own suffering to enjoy it, but. still.) because of it. so. not ideal.

4. How easy is it to earn their trust? & 5. How easy is it to earn their mistrust?

i’m just gonna combine these into one bigger answer hope that’s okay 👍 so, every single thing starts out with lots of mistrust from zeke lmao. and yes, i don’t just mean every person, i mean everything, even objects he has never seen before or shit like that. but there’s still multiple levels of mistrust, there’s again the basic mistrust everyone gets, and then there’s mistrust as in ‘you’ve given me a sign (and this truly might be fucking nothing. it most often is nothing. this boy is insane) that you’re working for gortash and i am now immediately killing you’ 😬 and then there’s of course the ‘AAAAHHHHHH WHAT ARE YOU’ level exclusively reserved for mr gortash himself.

to gain his trust, you have to approach it a little bit like you would with a feral kitten except a lot more careful because this thing can actually kill you before you even know that he went for the killing blow if you do something wrong. you have to essentially let him sniff you out, sometimes metaphorically and sometimes literally, assure him that you’re not a threat to him. no sudden movements, loud noises or other similar actions and you’ll be good. he’ll still be on high alert, but is out of ‘kill once it gets within 10 metres’ mode lmao. and that’s basically it. building trust with him is an extremely slow, hard & painful (most often for the party that isn’t zeke) process and honestly? it’s not worth it considering YOU can never fully trust him not to suddenly feel his entire being scream to hunt & kill you. i’ve made this comparison before but it’s essentially like one of those people on taking an animal like a lynx or a chimpanzee into their home. they’ll probably get used to you and maybe even trust you, but they’re still wild animals at the end of the day. wild animals who can and will, if you’re not careful, severely hurt or even kill you if. zeke is the wild and the wild is zeke and all haha.

the methods to earn his trust and mistrust are both not very complex, but while earning his trust is a slow, never sure and stable thing, earning his mistrust is quick and very, very easy in comparison. once again, just one sign that you’re a threat, one wrong movement at the wrong time and you’re out. and this behaviour is just his base instincts as the apex predator and all. like how i described earlier, zeke also has SO many gortash related triggers on top of all that already. for example, telling him that his eyes are beautiful! they just are objectively extraordinary, so you most likely just want to genuinely compliment him! it’s rough. zeke is awful. end essay.

[loserchildhotpants]

Fic Writer Q & A

Tagged by @casdeans-pie :3333 (thank you for tagging me!!)

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

on loserchildhotpants I've got 151

on someonetoanyone I've got 30

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

on loserchildhotpants it's 1,614,148

on someonetoanyone it's 370,992

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Oh, so many. Right now, I'm writing strictly for Supernatural bc i have too many ideas to split my time lmao but I still v much enjoy writing for Good Omens, Star Trek, Star Wars and IT : )

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

On loserchildhotpants my top 5 fics by kudos are:

Madman and a Fool (w over 9k kudos y'all are insane ilu)

Seeing Wolves (Where There Are No Wolves)

Just to See You Again

Derek Hale's Possible Heart

The Witching Hour

And honorable mention to surprising me by showing up in 6th place: The 'Do Not Fucking Touch Me' Tour which is my reddie post-canon fic that i wrote an entire, original, actual stand up routine for skjdhf

On someonetoanyone my top 5 fics by kudos are:

Being Lead Home

Threw Stones At The Stars (But The Whole Sky Fell)

Years of Sorrow Wash Away

What Used to Be Mine

Perihelion

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I do! I try my best to reply to every single comment a person leaves on any and all of my fics, no matter how old! I hope it encourages them to KEEP writing comments, not just to me, but to any authors. Fic authors suffer a huge disparity between kudos/views/bookmarks and actual comments written. The ratio sucks so bad, actually, it's kinda disheartening.

There's a big difference between eating someone's homemade cookies at an event and giving them a thumbs up before walking away, and staying at the table to tell them how the texture and sweetness was PERFECT, and they don't even usually like snickerdoodles, but you made them so well, they want more and more, they're so glad you're at the event and so glad you brought your cookies!! -- like, that really is the difference between leaving a kudos and comment. Comments are my lifeblood.

I've also made great fandom friends in the comments section of my fics lol

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

On loserchildhotpants the angstiest angst I ever wrote is in the Angst November collection for kylux -- none of them have happy endings, and happy endings are sort of my staple! It was fun to write a series of tragedies though. Beyond that, probably my kylux series Not About Angels

On someonetoanyone, probably The Levee Breaking, which is just a specific scene rewrite that offers an alternative to Despair where Cas' body is left behind by The Empty or One And Only, Time And Again which is endverse, so.....

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

A curious question! The HAPPIEST? Huh.... uh.

On loserchildhotpants probably Seeing Wolves (Where There Are No Wolves) or Madman and a Fool. The endings for both those fics are gooey and tooth-rotting lmao

On someonetoanyone maybe Being Lead Home or It Won't Be Perfect ? idk this is a hard question lmao what makes a happy ending happier than another?? sdljkfh

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Yes! I have had to delete several fics in the past because the threats, suicide-baiting, slurs, and absolute vitriol was actually too much for my heart.

One of the reasons I made a new account was to outrun that sort of abuse. There were people that knew and fucking hated loserchildhotpants and among several other reasons, i decided making a new account was a good idea, but the hate i got on fics under loserchildhotpants was definitely a contributing factor.

I've had people be shitty about my fics on someonetoanyone in the bookmarks and on twitter and tumblr but not on the fics themselves.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

i write so much smut sldkjfhsldkjfhksdhj now, i'm generally a p vanilla smut writer; some end-of-fic, on-top-of-the-covers w the lights on missionary stuff, but I've been widening my horizons as of late.

I went outside my typical comfort zone for Red, Red, Red (sterek), and Arrows Made of Desire (sterek), and I've got an unpublished WIP on someonetoanyone rn that's sitting in the drafts and it's... perhaps the most animal, insane, monsterfucking smut i've ever written lmao sdlkjfhsdkfjh but y'know, after writing so many years of original flavor smut, you wanna take up new challenges!

Like, im not into food play, so i would have never thought of it on my own, but someone prompted me w it and i was like '.... you know what, i bet i could write the shit out of that' and i did! lmao (the fic in question is on someonetoanyone; Lost In The Sauce lmao) it's not my usual gig, which made it exciting and new and fun! so, i'm usually v vanilla but i am starting to try new flavors lol

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

I have not written any crossovers, but I'm attempting my first one! It's for a dear friend, and I'm trying to make it just right, but this is way harder than i thought it would be lmao

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Several! Oh my god, so many of my fics have been stolen, and I always find out through a reader. Someone always lets me know through a comment like 'hey, head's up, [x] has literally copy and pasted this entire work and replaced the names w their current ship' and every time my shit is stolen or reposted on different sites without credit, i see fuckin red, dude.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Many! I was going to list them here, but it's actually a v long list lol if you look at my top kudos'ed fics on loserchildhotpants, you'll find several translations and podfics of those available, and i think maybe two of my fics on someonetoanyone have been translated as well : )

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

Sorta? We haven't published it yet, but once it is published, I'll have officially cowritten a fic lol check back in

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

i have stared at this question for 5 full minutes i have no idea sdkjfhlsdkfjh i can't choose!!!! i love them all so much T A T my top five IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER are probably destiel, bagginshield, kylux, spirk, and johnlock (this list being comprised of who i have read the most fic for - although, sterek also deserves a spot tbh)

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I do not have an unfinished work currently that I have no intention of going back to. A few months ago, I went to loserchildhotpants and deleted all unfinished works that would not be finished, so if it's still up on AO3, it's JUST a hiatus and i WILL be returning to it someday

16. What are your writing strengths?

... uhhhh... huh. Does tangential, narrative metaphor count? Tbh I'm not sure. When folks have told me what they specifically like about my writing, the consensus has been that it 'feels like [i am] ripping [the reader's] heart apart and then tenderly putting it back together' and that my stories on the whole are 'satisfying.'

I have a certain speaking cadence, and I write like a talk, and I talk like I write, so people can usually hear it in their heads as they read. Whenever I am composing what I hope is a deeply emotional crescendo, it appears to land ?

Again, no idea what I'm doing there, idk the technical word for that. Maybe pacing? But it feels tied to diction too... composition ??? idk skdljhfksjdh if anyone's got an answer to this, lemme know

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Exposition and character introduction skdjlfhslkdjhf too many years of writing fic have allowed me to neglect these skills and i'm really bad at them. i just hate exposition!! just let me psychically transfer the information to you!! how do i write out the rules of the universe in a way that doesn't feel like a boring info-dump ??? thiS IS HARD

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Back during my FF dot net days, I'm p sure my first fic was an Inukag fic for Inuyasha. Back in the day, I majorly wrote for Inuyasha, OHSHC, HP, Death Note, Star Trek and South Park. But yeah, I think the first time i was like 'i need these two to kissy kiss right on the LIPS' was when i was 10 and watching Inuyasha for the first time sljkdhfskjdfh

Idk who to tag! If you see this and you want me to tag you in future stuff like this, consider yourself tagged by me! I'll make a mental note!

[gggoldfinch]

Alright, for the 'Be Nosy' thing: 2, 8, 11, 24 and 50. Hopefully this helps you stay awake a bit!

BE NOSY asks

2. What are you obsessed with right now?

I'm currently going fucking insane about Fargo season 5 & the new blorbo who stole my heart (said blorbo being Ole Munch) uwu I love him,..,,, my little freaky guy,,,

8. What’s your favorite show to binge?

omg I have a couple trustworthy binge-shows that I always come back to. The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, and The Umbrella Academy are the first ones that pop into mind, as they're the ones I rewatch/ binge most frequently. For reference, I've watched the first 4 seasons of TWD about 6 times, Breaking Bad 2 times fully, and specifically season 2 of TUA probably upwards of 10 times 😁

11. If you could teleport anywhere in the world right now, where would you go?

answered here!

24. What are three places you want to travel?

OMGGG I want to travel so bad aaaghhhgh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First on my future travel itinerary are the British Isles (yes yes I'm cheating and not counting them separately BUT I want to go to all of them so fucking bad!! cries) !!!!! I'm hoping that'll happen someday soon, but idk. Immediately following the Isles, I'd love to see Germany and Italy. My archeology prof is always flexing the places he's been to/ taught at/ excavated/ lived at around Italy and it's been making me jealous asf lmao

50. What’s your favorite kind of weather?

Super specific, but I love when it's rainy in the autumn, but not fully raining, just lightly misting or just super foggy. The leaves on the ground are rich and damp, and the lichen on the darkened tree trunks is vibrant and pale, and everything smells like petrichor and rot, and it's cool but not uncomfortably chilly. Sometimes it's like this in the winter around here too. Oh god. I love fog. I would totally get lost in Silent Hill looking at the scenery

Deep Dive #1: Michael Afton

(Note: this about how Michael came to be as a character in my AU, not about Canon Michael)

My Michael first started off as the insane stereotypical Michael we all know and hate. I'm talking Mennard, I'm talking seeing Glitchtrap, insane asylum, first dead, all that junk.

I made quite a few AUs with that Michael. I made a DID AU (which helped me flesh out more of his character), I made a Phineas and Ferb AU (Michael was the stand-in for both Candace and Agent P), but most notably I made my Percy Jackson AU.

My Percy Jackson AU created the groundwork for the Michael you all know and love. I never got past chapter 7 and the writing of it was quite frankly atrocious, but it helped me find Michael's voice as a character. He was a witty, sarcastic, impulsive character with a few too many secrets and an inherit love for found family. Michael had that same fierce loyalty to his friends, saying to Henry:

This is probably the best written line in the entire thing, btw. Except for the classic:

Fuck bitches get nomney. Moving on, PJ Mike still followed the classics: he was friends with Ennard, was abused, was kind of a psychopath in all honesty (he killed family pets of the foster homes he stayed in (but he was literally the son of the king of monsters so idk give him a break lmao)).

He did steal a car and it was badass, and he was gay and in love with James.

Later, after watching more videos about the Aftons, I decided to scrap the stereotypes and make my own AU. We'll call this one the "Old AU" since it came right before my current AU.

I came up with the design for my P!Mike after making an AU where the 4 Tormentors were lab experiments. He looked a little something like:

Ouch. It looked better in gacha, I swear. I still got things from the stereotype au; he was experimented on as a kid by William, and was NM Foxy, for example. He did have black hair, but dyed it brown to differentiate himself from William. I did lean away from the stereotype that Mike could control his rotting and got rid of Ennard as a character, instead bringing in Molty, who's stayed the same since they were created, down to looks.

Old!Michael looked like this:

As you can see, Michael kept his jacket and glasses while crossing AUs. This Michael was kind and fatherly while still having a chaotic streak. I vividly remember writing a scene where he dislocates his spine and Jeremy had to crack it back in place. Michael made a joke about throwing up blood and then threw up blood. (Funny enough, after writing that scene I decided to scrap the AU).

If PJ Mike laid the groundwork for Michael today, Old Mike laid the support down. Michael was in a polyamorous relationship with Jeremy Fitzgerald and Fritz Smith, who no longers exists in my current AU, as Michael is Fritz Smith.

Michael still loved his father in this AU, and was searching for him to set him free so they could all move on together. Obviously Willy boy came back as Glitchtrap, and they were all stuck on Earth.

Since Michael was NM Foxy, obviously the other tormentors were the other Nightmares, with Kasey from Fazbear Frights as NM Fredbear. Kasey was the one who forced all the Tormentors to bully Evan. Man, I really did not like making Michael responsible for any of his mistakes lmao-

Despite these differences, Michael was fundamentally the same character as he is today. His motivation lay in reuniting with his family and friends, he was still the goofy guy he is today. The only exception was that I was too cowardly to really whack him with the trauma hammer so he was wholly neurotypical and his dad apologized to him and he got to be with his mom.

In between creating the Old AU and creating my current AU, I made a small AU that I called the Figment AU. It was paired with a couple other AUs, namely the Crazy AU, Old AU, and the God AU. The Figment AU, to put it short, was based off Bendy the Bunny's first edit of Michael, in which there's text that reads "I'm not real".

I went "oh what if that was literal and Michael didn't exist lol" and then made it an AU. Yay. In it, he was the embodiment of "The Monkey's Paw" in which he granted wishes but twisted it. He met a boy named Terrence (wow) and kinda raised him until he died in WWI! His last wish was for Michael to be free or something, but Michael had to twist it so he was freed but at the expense of not being his own person anymore. He was forced to do WHATEVER anyone expected him to do, even if he didn't like it. So when people started expecting him to cause trouble and bully his brother.. yeah. The only person who didn't expect anything of him was James and he was able to communicate with him.

Figment looked like this:

It was a cool AU, and it really hammered home to me the fact that Michael would be a GREAT father, and established his relationship with James.

But Dev, you're saying, PJ Mike and James were together!! I know, but that didn't count because Michael was so different.

Jumping ahead a few months irl time, I decide that I don't fuck with the Old AU anymore and I decide to revamp it. A few of the concepts stay the same, like Molty, Helpy, and Jeremy. But most of it is improved on.

Past Michael changes from a weak-willed sadboy to the egotistical, god-complex, asshole dickstain he is today. He doesn't dye his hair anymore, and looks like this:

That image is where I finally learned how to draw the Foxy mask correctly woo!! (Call-out post to my old art seen above).

I would also like to mention that all of these pieces were done on this phone with my left index finger. Just something to brag about ig 💅

Michael gained neurodivercency with his schizophrenia, I whacked him a couple times with the good ol' trauma hammer, made him accountable for his goddamn mistakes, and gave him a couple kids.

Michael started hating William just as I do! However he was not experimented on by him at all. He is no longer Nightmare Foxy, but the Nightmares are his. They're just literal Nightmares turned hallucinations.

And wow, what is this? Michael actually had growth during the SAME AU!! In my current AU, he was angry all the time and beat people up for fun, shown here:

Hmm. Maybe I should quit art lmao. Look at the neck on that lad. What was this shading? Look at Michaels BOOT.

And look! He kept his jacket!! I couldn't let myself get rid of it.

Anyway, this phase of Michael didn't last long. Good riddance.

Michael became the corpse we all know and love, in a relationship with Jeremy Fitzgerald and James Watson, with 3 kids, 2 siblings, and a complete family and character arc.

I think it was needless to say that Ace!Michael remained through his entire journey (except for the setero AU because idk apparently rape used to be funny?? I hate it I hate it anyone who makes rape a comic haha funny joke can choke on my massive cock dick balls and asshole). As someone who is ace, I literally couldn't see him as anything else! So he's ace.

I'm sure Michael will do some more developing as my channel goes forward. He's already changed a lot during the course of my channel!

Thank you for reading, and stay tuned for the second part of this series: Evan Afton!

Piers meets God

And part 2 on the Piers story in which he meets God lmao.

I know absolutely no one is going to read these but I'm having a lot of fun.

CW for mild gore; nothing extreme.

Everything is peaceful for a brief moment in Piers mind. Black and black then a sudden burst of stark unrelenting light. His eyes snap open; a deep pained breath is drawn in and the pain starts. His stomach wound flares with a sharp intensity and he coils up clawing at the cold marble ground.

He wasn’t alone but it took him a moment to realize as cold yellow eyes with shining red dot pupils gaze down upon him in a...disgusted way.

He rolls over onto his side and scrambles to get onto his feet; it’s almost too much for him to bare.

Piers: He takes one look at the thing in front of him and cackles. “Oh...a hallucination...my brains’ going dark and you’re what it came up with...great…” ???: A large; looming presence stands before him. An otherworldly visage of insectoid chitin laid upon humanoid form. Long; lithe legs ending in bird like talons, the claws impatiently tapping against the cold ground that Piers lays. It’s face; humanoid for sure but with a divine glow, long lavender hair flows along with even longer striped insect antennae. The silhouette is completed with four vibrant red fae like wings along it’s back. It speaks; unamused, perhaps slightly uncaring. “Is my visage that much of a displeasure for you; you’re not exactly what I want to see right now either Piers but here we stand” Piers: Another wave of pain wrecks his insides; his guts barely hanging in, he panics when he notices just how gruesome it is. “Why does...why does it still hurt...it should be over” ???: A small pleased smile creeps upon it’s lips. “It’s far from over but thankfully your Lacey finally put an end to your reign. Your Earth is a safer place...ever so slightly at least.” Piers: A snarl lashes across his lips as he snaps his head to the side; a feeling of blood lust coming over him ever so briefly. “Lacey…” ???: “Do I detect ANGER in your voice? Are you kidding me? You still wish to kill your friend even now? You really are an impossible case...I’m not even sure why I give any of you humans a chance now; call it an old habit all you want but no...I’ve been wanting to give you a piece of my mind for awhile now but you are nowhere near SPECIAL Piers. Do you know how many thousands of other souls I’m speaking to at this very moment? You are a drop in the bucket; you are nothing, a speck.

Piers: The reality of his situation is dawning on him rapidly as he decides to press his fingers into the wound; wincing and yelling from the pain he drops to his knees. “It shouldn’t hurt…” He speaks under his breath finally laying his eyes on the creature in front of him. “So what even are you...the Devil? This is hell? I’m in hell?” He laughs to himself at the absurdity of it all.

???: It’s heard this more than once and you can tell by the tired look in it’s eye. “I’m God. I; unfortunately, put it all in motion up to this point. I am responsible for you and the other pests that rot the earth. I’m not surprised you feel this way but no...there is no one ‘Devil’; not anymore. I have taken double shift so I deal with filth such as you now too.” Piers: Fear grips him with a twinge of amusement; this looks like a beast that crawled out of the deepest depths of hell in his eye but he’s so exhausted he decides to go along with it. “God…” He nods and looks away. “I see...so what...you’re here to chew me out and talk about how horrible of a person I am. I’ve heard this all my life “God” it doesn’t mean any more or less coming from you. I know what I did; I’m not insane but I hel-” God: A grin appears on it’s face as it stops Piers in mid sentence. “Yes yes you ‘helped’ people; you murdered the parents of poor helpless children. Is that your justification?...I do...understand...I do but no Piers; what of the others? God opens it’s eyes wide and a flash burns Piers mind; the death throes and pleading cries of ‘the others’ filling his brain. He screams clutching at his face tears streaming down his cheek until relief finally comes after what feels like days. He collapses; his mind wanders and finally snaps back into this new reality.

Piers: He pants; sweating now glancing and shaking as he stares up at God. “I don’t….I..” God: “You don’t need to say anything; I’ve seen what you’ve been up to, I’ve seen it thousands of times. Perverse gratification in the death of others; you’re nothing but a disgusting sadist through and through. You’re just one of the ones that justifies it by doing a bit of ‘good’ in the world on the side. You’re. Not. Special. In fact...that human form is not befitting of you; not nearly, why don’t I grant you something more in line with the shade of your soul.

Piers: A flash of heat pulses through Piers body; so hot it sears his flesh from underneath. His eyes roll back; his body snaps forward, nothing but pain, prickly and hot. He yells as his body morphs into a hellish form. Spikes tear from his shoulders; his feet stretching into a digitigrade form causing him to fall to his knees in which curved thorn like blades pull upwards along with his elbows and heel. His spine stretches and tears from him; muscle weaving over flesh forming a long whipping tail ending in a blade. Claws rip from under his nails and toes. He pants; a brief moment of respite before the final touches appear. His ears extend; now pointed and bat like, a pair of large bright ivory horns tear from his skull. His face starts to hurt so badly he starts to beg for death as his mouth extends ghoulishly and his human teeth tear from his mouth; replaced with a dagger smile. He grabs his face and tears at it; his newly gifted claws tearing hard down the left side leaving a horrible gash. “Make it...make it stop” his voice is changed; much more befitting of the killer he is as the last of his humanity is ripped from him; his eyes, tearing from his face only to be replaced with bright solid white before slitted red pupils form.

God: It gazes upon it’s work and see’s fit to smile; satisfied. It clasps it’s hands together and nods to this new creature in front of him, standing now at 8 foot tall. “Good...that’s much better.” Piers: He pants looking over himself in disbelief; when the searing heat fades, the pain in his stomach flares again he yelps finding that it hasn’t healed. “After all that….still this” God: “Oh don’t worry it WILL heal...in a few years” Piers: “Years…” God: “Time isn’t really accounted for down here; decades have passed on your Earth, thousands more dead, thousands more born. But that isn’t what you’re going to worry about” God looks behind him; a curtain of white pulls open and unveils a strange place. It could be described as a town of sorts; bustling with life, humanoid shapes blinking in and out and going about their business. A mist surrounds it; dimming the lights and activity. The mist pools into the bright white room where they both stand. God looks over his shoulder; amused. “Far from the fire and brimstone you humans tend to think it is but...this is your new home.” Piers: “This is...hell” He grits his teeth unsure; the place didn’t feel as hostile as he thought it would but it wasn’t exactly inviting.

God: “Yes. You will find it has it’s quirks but you should do...just fine. Go on; I’ll check in on you in a few years.” Piers: He walks forward seeming compelled to but he snaps his head to God and growls. “What am I supposed to fucking do? What now? What is...what is the purpose…” God: “That’s for you to decide Piers.”

God and the pristine white room it was standing in fades leaving Piers in the middle of a busy street; he quickly dodges to the side of a strange vehicle of sorts and steps onto the sidewalk. People...or what were people; glance at him. Some seemingly amused most indifferent. He begins to walk; stumbling over himself as he wasn’t used to his new legs, his tail whipping wildly behind him as he was yet to tame it. He wanders and he notices after awhile that he’s getting nowhere. The same street; over and over again, as if he was on a treadmill though the ‘people’ surrounding him seem to have no problem.

Piers feels a hand on his shoulder and a shorter creature smirks up at him; the head of an eagle and the body of a reptile.

Creature: “You’re new” Piers: His eyes opened wide like a wild animal. “….y..yes..” Creature: “Getting around here is a bit more complicated than just walking...think about where you want to go. What do you want buddy? What do you want more than anything right now…” Piers: He rolls his eyes back and closes them thinking to himself. “I want a fucking drink…” He slowly opens his eyes shocked to see that he now stands outside of a bar. He looks down the road; he was clearly still in the same town but the road where he once stood is long in the distance. His chest heaves as he gives up and walks inside.

The bar is pleasantly empty but there are a few patrons. The bar keeper; a large beast with several more eyes than needed smiles warmly at him. Bar keep: “Piers!” he takes a scroll out of his pocket and slides his fingers across it. “Yep no mistaking it; welcome come have a seat.” Piers: Stops in his tracks before limping into a seat and slumping down nearly collapsing in a heap. “How did you know my name” Bar Keep: “You’re one of the new guys; most of you tend to stop by here first” He gives a hearty laugh and pours Piers a drink. “Plus...you’re obviously new...your guts are hanging out there friend” Piers: Holds his hand over his stomach; it still hurt, badly but he was almost used to it by now. “Y..yea..I...listen I don’t..” Bar Keep: “No reason to talk right now...drink...rest...you’ve got an eternity to get yourself together. Now if you need me...I’ll be in the back.” Piers: He nods and stares at the drink slamming it back as he thinks to himself ‘This is just a nightmare..I’ll wake up...I’ll definitely wake up.’
