please share your thoughts on mr. and mrs. smith rosquez version
Basically in my au Vale is like, idek, a government spy that left the services after uncovering some scam that was going on but he was weirdly embroiled and had to leave to avoid prison. Marc is a mercenary for hire of sorts, couldn't be a spy for the country because his psychometric test deemed him a little crazy. So they hired by the agency and they are matched. They get to this beautiful villa somewhere in southern Europe in city. Bump into each other and realise they are supposed to be fake married for their missions. It's like, immediate chemistry. In the same house, thick sexual tension. Marc is blushing around Vale for no reason but they maintain some distance to work on their missions properly. Vale obviously aware of Marc's attraction and his own ability to draw people to him. They start fucking pretty early into their set up, but don't do the other domestic stuff that comes with it, don't really sleep in the same bed. It's intense hot dirty fucking and then back to work. Sex as a performance enhancement drug (for Marc atleast, Vale is a plain old hedonist). The company has them doing a bunch of crazy stuff all over Europe. They work well as a team. Vale has far more extensive experience and knowledge because he worked with the government. He's privy to information that helps them along in planning and strategy. Marc is great at the dirty work, remorseless at times. They have their first dangerous situation, Vale almost gets shot. And it affects Marc, he's shaken up. They come back and he's just clinging to Vale, unable to let him go, they finally sleep together the same time and Vale realises Marc is genuinely invested in this. Their fake marriage becomes a little less fake post that thing. I think over the course of more missions Marc catches up to Vale a little. Does a lot of his own research and reading. Vale gets a little paranoid about how Marc doesn't exactly need him anymore for the mental heavy lifting, and lbr physically Vale isn't at his prime and neither does he possess the ruthless physicality of Marc. They keep having these little skirmishes that don't fully rise to surface till a mission in Sepang. They are supposed to carry out an extraction where Vale gets injured and immediately thinks that Marc has gotten him injured so he has to take time off from field work for a while. Huge meltdown, almost compromise the mission itself. Decide to go their separate ways, some shenanigans ensue and they realise that the company might be instigating them to act out this way. Definitely a huge argument and the classic scene where they keep pulling out weapons from random places and shooting at each other while calling each other "honey" "baby" "sweetheart" "mi amor". Eventually they just start fucking. Marc crying as he gets fucked on the floor of the house they nearly destroyed. Telling how much they love each other. Finally decide they need to do something about this damn company if they want to be together. That's all I can think now but come back for more later!

OOH for the fic thingy --
"better not to ask" and "the road left untravelled"
OH OH OH
ok
so
i'll be writing this in note form as i think of it. purely organically. brace yourselves lmao
and its also just for royai just because <3
OK SO.
i'm picking up what ur putting down my beloved MWAH TYYYYY
"better not to ask" - oooooh how about. person a (hawkeye lbr) going unhinged to Protect person b (mustang) for Reasons (its hand wavey~ idk). maybe he ends up unconscious and when he wake up there's discussion, what happened etc, and hawkeye just gets This Look... and is like "...better not to ask, sir"
but he sees The Look in her eye. he gets an Inkling. his gut twists and he feels guilty about bringing such a look upon her fine features, because of him... which is almost a constant with him.
so he does what she requests
he doesn't ask
OR. ON A MORE LIGHTHEARTED NOTE. bc that's always good. what about. a little bit of crack...?
picture this: there's Something, Some Occurrence in the office. havoc, breda, fuery and falman are all ~arguing~ - havoc and breda more loudly than the other two for shits and gigs. but the other two have their wee quips which only subtly fuels the fire bc their banter is still top notch 🩷
there's ~shenanigans~
and roy walks is like bruh. wtf is happening below these ceiling panels. what am i witnessing.
and riza is just like "bro. sir. better not to ask"
LITTLE DID WE KNOW SHE'S THE INSTIGATOR MWAHAHHA and is causing chaos and banter and good times bc yeah. even tho they're going ape, its a good time. good vibes!! and roy grins despite it all in the chaos bc these are His People, His Chaos
"the road left untravelled" - OHHHHH THE THOUGHTS I HAVE THUNK. the daydreams i have dreamt for this moment.
thoughts of "what if...." infiltrating my brain....
like. i mean, i already did a "what if riza never went to war" which was a blast and a delight to flirt with mwah. and related to exploring that road which was untravelled between them - being together, loving each other openly, etc
but... i'm thinking young royai...... - not to take away from his character, but what if... roy didn't pursue alchemy as fully as he did in canon (fr those fanfic.net fics were my lifeblood back in the day <333). what if he still sought it out, but found it worth more to stick around for the master's daughter?
(🥺)
a butterfly flapping its wings and all that
or!
it's late. roy is dropping off/relaying something work related to riza.
at her Personal Apartment (shock, horror)
only for them to travel down.... the road which had always been left unravelled
WINK WONK

Michelle and Soldier Boy for ship memeee 💕
ULTIMATE SHIP MEME! || @twiicetheheart
Tumblr media
General:
Rate the Ship -   Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs
How long will they last? - Fucking. Forever.
How quickly did/will they fall in love? - I don't wanna say too quick, and i don't wanna say it took forever for them also. least for soldier boy, the second something happens to her that involves dealing with homelander. whether she was hurt-- or just feelings hurt, i think seeing the look on her face--- broken and all, that's when he realizes... that he hates seeing her sad, hurt--- and that's when it hits him that he loves her.
How was their first kiss? - oh my god. you know michi and i haven't talked about that, but i do have an idea of when they first kiss. def think it's when he tells her about his past-- like his real past, and also telling Michelle about his time with the russians-- maybe not entirely, because lbr he's still trying to block our most of his trauma and also probably can't recall what ELSE they done to him. -- but i imagine when he finally gives his name to Michelle, not his supe name. his real name. like letting her in--- fully. which he hasn't done in a long time. and also i think Soldier boy would be the one to make the move first, it would have been soft. despite who he is, cause he's not a soft man-- but with Michelle ? he's definitely got a soft spot for her. It would have been sweet and slow, filled with so much emotion, want & just vulnerable.
Wedding:
Who proposed? - lbr soldier boy would. he's old school. man bs.
Who is the best man/men? - .... nobody. LMAO WHAT FRIENDS ? xD
Who is the braid’s maid(s)? - damn idk. starlight maybe xD though she's gonna be like Michelle--- him ? LMAO idk guess we gotta see what bg characters are Michelle's friends.
Who did the most planning? - Michelle would. but why do I feel like she would try to still have him involved in SOME STUFF.
Who stressed the most? - Michelle. She's planning it after all.
How fancy was the ceremony? - Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.
Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? -
Sex:
Who is on top? - soldier boy is top dog-- but that doesn't mean he won't switch to let Michelle *cough cough* ride him.
Who is the one to instigate things? - soldier boy ! LMAO C'MON how can he not ? she's a babe.
How healthy is their sex life? - Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now
How kinky are they? - Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head
How long do they normally last? - listen soldier boy is a supe, he's never out of energy he's always up for it, and also women can last so ayyye ! these two can go hand in hand-- unless Michelle gotta be somewhere and THEN a quickie is in the works.
Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? - yes, soldier boy definitely is a man when it comes to wanting his women to cum. so yes, he will make sure she reaches climax before him ( which also means he cares about her, putting her needs before his )
How rough are they in bed? - Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it. // SO i think they can be both. cause it's SB and he def would have soft moments with Michelle, but also he's a dirty talker when needed.
How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.
Children:
How many children will they have naturally? - maybe two. soldier boy did say he wanted to be a dad after all.
How many children will they adopt? - none sorry kiddos.
Who gets stuck with the most diapers? - Michelle but don't think she doesn't have soldier boy help-- she makes his ass.
Who is the stricter parent? - soldier boy ? in some parts, and Michelle in other parts. so equal-- but Michelle still would be softer.
Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? - Michelle LMAO
Who remembers to pack the lunch(es)? - also Michelle
Who is the more loved parent? - i think they are both loved. but the kids would def be clinging to Michelle more.
Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings? - Michelle. can you imagine soldier boy ? god no.
Who cried the most at graduation? - Michelle. soldier boy @ himself was like : don't you dare cry pussy. don't do it-- fuck I'm crying shit.
Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? - soldier boy lbr. he's like i got you kid, i got you don't tell your mother.

Who does the most cooking? - michelle. soldier boy can't cook for shit.
Who is the most picky in their food choice? - i think Michelle. cause soldier boy looks like he has more of an appreciation for good after being in the box for a long ass time.
Who does the grocery shopping? - Michelle. listen soldier boy did it once, and he only got meat/jerky/junk food/beer
How often do they bake desserts? - i think Michelle does it a lot when she has the time. cause she seems like she knows how to bake real good.
Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? - soldier boy loves meat. I see Michelle being our salad girl for sure.
Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? - Michelle would be the one to do this. soldier boy though will surprise her-- and try to cook.... :) didn't go well though.

How often do they decorate the room/house for the holidays? - Michelle does it for each and every holiday, and also ben enjoys it cause he's been gone for a long time-- and like i said i think appreciates things more.
What are their goals for the relationship? - stay alive is number one for sure. but also have each other back no matter what.
Who is most likely to sleep till noon? - neither
Who plays the most pranks? - neither

They don't even like each other
Why Sasusaku is shit - a submission-based essay, part 1/2
Sasusaku - a canon het ship from the Naruto and Boruto fandoms between Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Hanako
sasuke has not and has NEVER had a shred of interest in sakura from the get-go. she continually harasses him and refuses to take his rejection as a no. later on in the series they try to kill each other at one point but sakura is still stupidly in love with him even though the dumbass instigated the killing attempt. he leaves her for dead at a later point toward the end of the series when they're literally fighting against a god lol. and STILL she tries to confess her love to him just for him to reject her once a-fucking gain. the series ends with him pushing her away. in the series sasuke's brother itachi has this gesture where he pokes sasuke on the forehead as a sign of distance- and sasuke does the same to sakura. SOMEHOW they end up together in the horrid sequel series boruto. but after allegedly knocking her up (which is a dubious topic in of itself which is a whole nother topic. but there are maternity doubts about their daughter sarada) he abandoned her to "go on a misson" for over 10 years. every time he is around her he looks like one of those animals in a really bad zoo that wants to ram itself against the glass in its enclosure. IT'S PRACTICALLY OUTRIGHT STATED HE AND SAKURA HAVE NEVER EVEN KISSED!! also this doesn't factor into how much the ship itself sucks but the shippers are some of the most homophobic pieces of shit i have encountered in any anime fandom <3 i hate them so much and i hate their shitty ship even more!
okay. listen. this has been done to death but HOLY FUCK. literally the reason sasuke even married her despite having NO INTEREST FOR THE ENTIRE SERIES was because she HARASSED HIM SO MUCH that he FINALLY GAVE IN JUST TO SATISFY HER. she manipulated him REPEATEDLY. she gave up on him after he left and tried to manipulate naruto into not going after him. they have NO CHEMISTRY. NO ROMANTIC BUILDUP. SASUKE IS A FLAMING HOMOSEXUAL. THEY HAD A KID?? THAT HE ABANDONED FOR THIRTEEN YEARS???? THEIR ONE DATE LASTED TWO AND A HALF MINUTES??????? THEY PROBABLY HAVEN'T EVEN KISSED?????????????? KISHIMOTO DIDN'T EVEN TRY TO WRITE A ROMANCE. HE JUST ONE DAY SAID "OH YEAH BTW SASUSAKU IS A THING NOW" PROBABLY JUST TO APPEASE THE SASUSAKU FANS OUT THERE. NARUTO AND SASUKE HAD MORE ROMANTIC CHEMISTRY BUILT UP WITHIN THE FIRST FIVE EPISODES THAN SASUKE AND SAKURA DID IN THE WHOLE GODDAMN SERIES.
She was in love with him for the entire series. he thought she was fucking annoying. that never really changed but the author decided they should end up together at the end. they got married and had a kid and he went on a trip for the kid’s entire life. he had more interest in his best friend/rival/canon soulmate. the author can’t write women. i feel very bad for sakura it is not her fault her husband is gay.
lbr theyre both gay and in love with their besties

Flexible Asks for Salieri and Erik (or whoever you like if you choose to swap them out for any of the questions) to feed the brainrot perhaps uwu: ⏰️ 🖼 📍 🛡 😨 🤕 💖 💛 👍 🐜
OHOHOHOHOHO IT'S FINALLY TIME I LOVE WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME THINGS even if I lovingly bullied u into it <3
Ask game is here if anyone wants it/wants to ask me anything else for anyone <3
So a run through again w/Erik bcus not everyone reads servant profiles: Erik in FGO is more akin to an actor playing the Phantom of the Opera than being the Phantom himself. He's the model for the character, which is where his Innocent Monster comes from; he grows the claws and has the disfigurement on his face bcus of it. [ps if that is not the right word pls pls pls tell me, I used this guide from the National Center on Disability and Journalism but it can still be Wrong]
Just wanted to stress that bcus this is FGO's Phantom, not the Phantom of the Opera's Phantom who needs. So so much therapy. Like FGO's does too BUT STILL
⏰️ Who starts off the morning routine? Who makes them late?
Neither of these fuckers sleep lbr. 50% of the time they'll be up all night working on an opera, 50% of the time they are up bcus of The Demons. However if they DID ever sleep, Salieri would be up first and Erik would just refuse to get up, there are PEOPLE out there why would he GO
As for who makes them late, it switches between them both. When Erik is Not hiding in the basement he always puts a lot of effort into his costumes so it takes Time to get everything ready. And Salieri is cut from the same cloth, if you aren't going to look your best why even go???
Yes they do show up to Chaldea movie nights dressed to the nines yes everyone does lovingly tease Salieri about it [he made it very clear early on that he was fine with it but if Any of them do it to Erik he will have Words] but also it's endearing. There's Chaldea's resident dad and one of its resident basement creatures, dressed like they're going to a coronation.
🖼 Who has final say on the decor? What does their space look like?
Only when I typed it for this did I realize this is a painting and not a spider web XD ANYWAY decor is a Fight. Admittedly a low stakes one bcus imo they DO keep their own spaces, solely bcus Salieri is not going to live in a cave, Erik, sorry. And Erik isn't going to tell Salieri how to decorate because it's his room.
However if they DID have a shared space it would be a bit of a fight. Salieri enjoys gothic architecture just as much as Erik but they have different ideas of it. Salieri thinks arches and stained glass, maybe some wrought iron, and Erik thinks skulls and bronze statues looking horrified and in agony.
Salieri thinks that the normal Chaldea lighting is fine, actually, Erik would like five million candles around the entire room, but that is a FIRE HAZARD, ERIK. A chandelier is also brought up and Immediately denied bcus Salieri knows he would drop it on someone. If not to kill then at least to scare the shit out of.
Also the room isn't TALL enough but I like to believe they are an hour into a polite but intense discussion about Salieri not wanting Erik to have a murder chandelier and Erik being offended that he thinks he would ABSOLUTELY murder someone with it when Salieri finally goes "And how would it even hang? It would be an inch off the ground, bello." and Erik sits there like. Wait shit fuck you're right dammit
Not related to the question but Erik's little. Haunted mouse cave would be perfect for Halloween, Salieri talks him into it but doesn't have to convince him much bcus Erik has such a flair for the ✨drama✨and then they decorate it together <3
📍Who's the instigator? How does it usually go?
Honestlyyyy neither of them is really adventurous? Like. Erik literally hides in the basement all day. He might wander out if he hears exceptional music or singing which. Could be considered An adventure but they really aren't for him lmao
And while Salieri isn't As tucked away, he also seems like the type to just chill at home you know? If Ritsuka needs him he'll be there in a heartbeat, but he isn't one of the servants who hears "adventure" and goes racing off to meet it.
Ig you could see Salieri as a halfway instigator if you go with what I said in my other post [bottom], in that if he's chosen for a particularly dangerous reason Erik will slip through shadows and story to be by his side to try and protect him as best he can. And while Salieri does his best to make his partner not worry, there has been at least one case where they were in Big Trouble and Salieri lets himself be grabbed so Erik drops a chandelier on someone/slits their throat w/his claws.
They HAVE talked about this though, and the first time it happens Salieri is So apologetic and Erik is like ??? it's chill I would drop a thousand chandeliers on ppl bcus I love you <3 and then they have to talk about THAT bcus that's not what he was saying, Erik, he doesn't want you to feel used or like a tool and THAT gets into the basis of who he is bcus while he Is an actor stepping into the role of the Phantom of the Opera, there's still gonna be overlap and learned behaviors bcus of it. Like being a tool for other people bcus Erik thinks it's love. And it can be, in a way, Salieri isn't trying to CHANGE that he is just trying to stress that he loves him for many reasons and not just what he can do for him.
This is a very entertaining discussion to watch bcus they are both worried about the other and neither of them is grasping the other's points. Erik wants Salieri to know he will do anything and everything for him happily; Salieri wants Erik to know that he appreciates and loves his devotion but such strong devotion can be harmful to the person offering it and the last thing he wants is to hurt Erik somehow.
Mozart composes a scene about it, probably, meaning to be teasing Salieri bcus he doesn't get as much ATTENTION now that his friend has a boyfriend what the FUCK but instead it makes each of their points clear to the other lmao
🛡 Who's the best fighter? How do they fight together? How do they protect each other?
I would say that they're both effective fighters. I know in-game they're a bronze 2* and a silver 3* but given all the other fate IPs we've seen where servants who are bronze/silver in FGO are super fuckin OP, this doesn't rlly impact things. They do have different specialties though.
So Salieri I think tends to fight head on, he does have ranged capabilities but he's much more effective when he can also stab people. He is pretty fast because of it, BUT if he's quick enough he can pull up the Wailing Facade to tank hits as well. He isn't BUILT to tank hits, not like Mash is, but he has the ability to do so. He does require a good amount of support if he's taking hit after hit, but I hc him as another servant who just. Will not stop getting back up. "Isn't that every servant" YES but I mean it more in a his spirit origin could be reading as Destroyed and he'd still force himself back up out of rage alone. Yes this does lead to dramatic collapses on the battlefield hehehe
Erik meanwhile has two fighting styles: sneak attacks and silent assassinations, and all out berserker rage mode. This is mainly because he's a berserker in Shinjuku and HONESTLY given how they write him in fate he rlly should be a berserker in general- I know he's an assassin due to source material, but berserker honestly makes more sense. So his typical attacks are in the shadows, appears before anyone knows he exists and disappears before people even realize they've died. Howeverrrrrr if Salieri takes a really bad hit or goes down and doesn't get back up...my god this man goes feral. He has those claws and he will USE THEM. Also like the idea bcus of how often he appears with the skeleghosts that he can just. Generate those, sing them back to life maybe?
So to use them effectively they don't often fight Together; they have different roles and they understand it well. However when they have to, when one of them is overwhelmed the other is There immediately [so long as it doesn't leave Ritsuka in danger] and then it's back to back "failure is not an option because I am NOT losing you" full-on slaughter. I like to think that Mozart tries to keep an eye on Salieri to follow him to provide support, and an eye on Erik bcus that's his bestie's partner, for better or for worse [he has mixed feelings about Erik]. Conversely, Moriarty also keeps an eye on them bcus Erik is his Bro and he also is canonically fond of Salieri as well, so they have been in a Desperate situation before when Crime Gramps comes rocketing from fucking nowhere and takes out like ten people in one sweep. And then complains about his back lmao
I kinda already went over how they protect each other but idk this could be my small brain thinking when I play FGO but I think their NPs kinda compliment each other; Salieri deals heavy damage+lowers arts resist, Erik deals heavy defense ignoring damage+lowers debuff resist. They aren't perfectly matched like some but. It works imo so there have been times where Salieri will just burst into his NP to give Erik a boost for his, and vice versa. BUT ALSO ERIK DROPS CHANDELIERS ON PPL and other heavy things lmao. After they discuss it, Salieri does consent to it being A strategy they can use if they Have to, and Erik agrees even though he doesn't like his partner being in that much danger. His fave part of that strategy though is that he gets to shadow Salieri Heavily, he enjoys having his partner in line of sight for once.
😨 What do they each fear? Do the other's know?
Erik by being the model for the Phantom shares his appearance and some of the same headspace; because of this one of his biggest fears is people seeing him without his mask or glamor of some sort. Bcus imo even when Erik has his mask off in my stories at least his face isn't magically fixed, and he has some sort of glamor or magic hiding it. An illusion, mirrors, idk how he just Does.
Now Salieri is very good at boundaries and as such never touches his mask or asks; what he learns comes willingly from Erik. He always makes sure to be Very physically affectionate with him because of it, pressing kisses to his forehead, cheek, lips, hands, his mask if it wouldn't make him uncomfortable.
Eventually they're in a fight in some singularity and Erik loses not only his mask but also his glamour, and he is. Terrified horrified anxious scared. Salieri fights his way through to him, gives him his own mask, and helps him fight off the enemies. After the battle Erik returns the mask bcus the gesture is Too Much at once, Salieri takes it and asks if he can kiss him four times, each at a different place. The fourth is on his now unmasked face and my god Erik is a mess about it, about what he thinks is the worst part of himself being loved.
 And when the others are making their way over, Salieri just steps in front of him and doesn't let anyone else see him. Maybe Lobo brings the mask, he is the Goodest Boy. Or one of Salieri's firing squad.
Salieri for his part is mostly afraid of 1. losing himself and 2. never being himself in the first place. He can't ever fully shake the idea that he doesn't belong in his own body due to the nature of his spirit origin, and it gives him a lot of anxiety and depression that he works hard to hide. Erik sees all of it before they're even really friends, ngl, he kinda. Sees everything. So when they become friends he does tell Salieri he Knows he isn't okay when he says he is, not in an accusatory way, just like "hey I want you to know that I know" way.
Which is part of what helps lead into their relationship [it's a slow build from friends to lovers [after being strangers] that they don't even notice] because Salieri doesn't feel like he has to hide with him.
🤕 Have they shared with each other what hurt them the most? How do they care for each other?
Alright I kinda already did this with Erik above whOOPS but. I would say what hurts Erik the most is the mockery and hate people hold for him solely because of his appearance. Because if you READ THE BOOK overall it ends like. Hey this guy was, at the start of this, a human like anyone else. And maybe if people had looked below skin deep, none of this would have Even happened. Like. The Phantom absolutely did fucked up shit but who he became was at the hands of the abuse, mockery, and awful parts of humanity that were hurled at him.
So Erik really, really cannot handle being Perceived in anyway, it always feels as if people are watching him, mocking him behind his back, calling him a demon, etc. Now as mentioned above Salieri helps mostly in that he wholeheartedly embraces every part of who Erik is. He fucking loves his partner, okay? They adore each other, he loves him. He doesn't care about his face or his claws he cares about who Erik is. And admittedly he ADORES his voice oml does he love his man's voice he has made SO MANY OPERAS FOR HIM NOW.
For Salieri's part, what has hurt him most are the rumors that he killed Mozart. Both because it literally. Gave him the most incorrect spirit origin IMAGINABLE for how he actually was in life, and because it led him to such dark points in his life.
Now Erik approached this in a way Salieri Probably would not approve of in that he first makes sure fuckin No One is talking badly about Salieri in Chaldea at all and if they are. They get a visit. <3 And then he seeks out Mozart who at first thinks his bestie's boyf is here to throw hands but no he actually wants to know more about Salieri in life but from an outside perspective, as much of what Salieri says about himself is negative.
So he learns who his partner actually was and it eases things into conversations which also helps Salieri when he feels like he's losing himself again. For all that everyone in Chaldea is a little worried they'll be bad for each other, they are remarkably well suited.
💖 Who acts the most loving? And are they the most attached?
I feel like they both act equally loving because they both know the other needs it. While Salieri is uncomfortable with PDA, when Erik wanders up out of the basement for the first time in months he knows he needs support, so he's very physically affectionate. So from an outside perspective, Salieri would look the most loving due to not only being physically affectionate in front of others but also engaging in behaviors he usually wouldn't for the comfort of his partner.
Meanwhile Erik is often there for Salieri in his darker moments, times where he is overwhelmed and feeling isolated and Erik just. Comes in through his mirror. While they do Technically wreck each other's sleeping schedules, it's most often to support each other. Once Salieri has seen his face Erik also puts a lot of trust in him by leaving his mask off at times, a layer of extreme vulnerability showing that he trusts and loves him more than anything.
Idk they just LOVE EACH OTHER OKAY and they're both fully head over heels for each other, composing each other music and Salieri finds Erik's voice to be absolutely Divine, but when Erik hears Salieri's voice. He is just in the thrall of it. They sing TOGETHER and all of Chaldea is down bad LMAOOO Mozart is prying at the walls like LET ME DOWN THERE I HAVE TO C O M P O S E
💛 What do other's think about their bond? Family, friends, society?
OH BOY THIS IS A FUN ONE
Okay so I'll break it into chunks. Starting from Ritsuka! They love both of these servants dearly and once they determine that while they may be encouraging some bad health strategies, they are mostly helping each other, they are totally okay with it. Makes them happy to see.
NOW FOR ERIK I like to think the Shinjuku servants all kinda vibe together to some degree after what Moriarty put them all through LMAO minus Saber Artoria Alter and Jalter bcus they hate each other BUT LIKE THEY LOVE TO HATE EACH OTHER SO-
So like. Jalter and Hessian already love Salieri and they aren't concerned about him and Erik. They are a Little concerned about Erik being who he is but more on that later. But Moriarty already is fond of Salieri so he's 100% onboard, prob was Erik's hype man like "Salieri shows up to my bar sometimes and he's never with anyone I am 100% positive that you have a chance JUST MENTION IT YOU ALREADY SPEND ALL THIS TIME TOGETHER" and I feel like Yan Qing would try and be a hype person too. Saber Artoria doesn't rlly gaf and while Shakespeare's roll in Shinjuku prob would've made him Less willing to hang out with them he is ALWAYS down for the tea so-
BUT FOR SALIERI'S PART. Man a lot of people are Very concerned. Usually a servant = was that person, not so much where they're a model for the character. Other Innocent Monster types would prob grasp it easier but.
So Jalter and Hessian accept it faster than the other avengers due to knowing Erik better and being able to observe him closer. Lobo is angy for a while longer tho bcus Puppy. Dantes is Very suspicious of it for a Very long time until Erik sits down with him like "okay I hate people but we are going to Talk because this is upsetting Salieri"
Marie, Sanson, and d'Eon are supportive but cautious, though as they see them interact they're like "oh they're great okay <3"
AND THEN MOZART. Mozart who happens to stumble upon them and then they disappear themselves into Chaldea bcus they are NOT ready to talk about this yet, sits his ass outside Salieri's room for HOURS or maybe even days until his friend comes out. BUT rather than be a huge explosive argument Mozart is just like.
"Him? Why??"
And Salieri steels himself and starts talking and Mozart who doesn't GET it or see what he sees in Erik is like. Okay...okay okay okay I don't. I don't GET it. But he makes you happy. He does make you happy?? Okay he makes you happy. So Mozart actually has the quickest come around to Erik bcus he has that talk with Salieri bcus they are BESTIES.
👍 What do you like about this dynamic?
I like a lot of things, some more surface level than others. I like that they both canonically/historically have wonderful voices, and that they both greatly enjoy opera. I like feral overprotective partners. But also I really feel like they could understand each other better with how their Innocent Monster traits present, which is why it drives me NUTS that typemoon says Salieri doesn't like Erik sdzfxcg
Just. A person cast to play a role who then has that role inflicted upon himself. A person twisted into a murderer because of public belief and perception. LIKE Y'ALL SEE IT RIGHT??? I mean i know you do Wolfie but EVERYONE ELSE AS WELL-
🐜 What's your smallest headcanon for them?
I think they would both enjoy the Looney Tunes opera cartoons even though they're both serious about opera bcus they're just fun little things and it expands opera's audience.
THANK U AS ALWAYS FOR LETTING ME SCREAM EVEN THO I USED THE BDAY CARD ON U LAST NIGHT <3

For the NPC game: the (previous and current) charr imperators!
Send Me an NPC and I'll Share My Thoughts
Ohhh this is an interesting one. Let's see.
Starting with Bangar and Crecia: Bangar is such a fascinating character. Absolutely love him as a character, great writing, etc etc, love bullying that old man and would gladly shove him into traffic if I knew him in person. Facist pos but man is he interestingly written. I think they did a really good job with him!
Crecia is such a weird character for me to click with, honestly; this is because my girl Agaue has almost exactly the same backstory as her, with the exception of two items: Cre had been born when her mother fled, and Agaue wasn't. And Cre went Blood where Agaue went Ash. So interacting with her made Agaue, who is vehemently anti-Flame Legion at this point in her life, want to tear out throats. I do think she's... interesting. Nothing about how she's written, really, but it's weird basically having the same character lmao. Some of the rawest lines in the game, though, lbr. The "I should've bled you out" line lives rent free in my head.
Next, Smodur! I'm a little unhappy with how he ended up, if I'm being honest! I really liked him early on, playing through the Iron Legion stuff on at least one of my charr, and he seemed level compared to the other characters he was surrounded by. The way he behaved in IBS though felt almost like character assassination, I guess? It didn't seem to fit with how he behaved before, so it grated me a little bit. Like they needed someone to be the warmonger as the Blood Legion guy was out doing a civil war instigation, so the dice landed on him.
Malice I love. Largely because of Agaue but MAN we know like. Nothing about her. And I love that to a degree, because she sort of exemplifies the Ash Legion as it is. Utter secrecy, utter silence. Also how everyone just kinda knows she has spies in every legion, like its an open secret. I don't have a lot to say but I Just Think She's Neat.
And because I think he technically counts? Efram. God I have so much love for Efram, and I desperately want anet to tell us more about him. I want to know more about how he rose to power, how he avoided assassination for his beliefs, whether he had his own camp that fell under him with various recruits. I want to know what changed his mind about female charr, I want to know about his daughter! He's such a cool concept but we know so little about him and I need more tbh.

Did Terry ever pay Trish alimony lol? How expensive was their divorce? And does Trish still live in the mansion with Terry, or does she just randomly drop by unexpectedly and bug him? Also: Trish and Daniel should team up to annoy Terry. Lmao. Would Trish ever date/get married again? How long before the events of LMLAE were Trish and Terry divorced?
I am putting more thought into this now than I ever did while in the process of writing the actual fic.
Yeah, I guess there would be alimony? It's not like it would be a strain on him. Again, I feel like there's just no expense Silver would even bat an eyelash at, so how expensive the divorce was wouldn't be a concern. Nah, Trish doesn't live with him. She stayed there for a good while during the events of lmlae but she has her own estate. She doesn't really drop in unexpectedly, cause I feel like she'd at least tell Geoffrey, but Geoffrey probably wouldn't tell Terry lmao. Oh, Danish (ship name for Daniel and Trish????) would def get on Terry's nerves a lot together, when they weren't getting on each other's nerves, that is. Honestly, they all annoy tf out of each other. Geoffrey loves to eavesdrop and instigate shit when he can too.
Trish would date for sure. She might also get married, but it really depends on whether she finds the right person. She doesn't want to downgrade either lbr. Her and Terry probably weren't divorced for that long. A couple years at most, I'd say.

Oh also like. I don't chronicle every single one of my thoughts because a lot of it has been said already (I'm not trying to Raise Awareness or stuff just trying to stay semi-sane) but on this point I want to make my stance undeniably clear to anyone within earshot because I would hate myself if I didn't and would hate anyone who assumed otherwise.
The current Israeli government (Binyamin Netanyahu and his cronies, particularly the likes of Itamar Ben Gvir, Bezalel Smotrich and Amichai Eliyahu) is downright evil and I'd rather abandon the mortal plane by my own volition than even pretend I stand for their actions or anything close to it. Like sure Hamas is also extremely evil but they are not the evil I can hold accountable. These men? Evil, every single one of them, and the ones standing silent behind them and letting them instigate murder in silence. All of them.
No ifs buts or ands. I want the hostages back, I want people to stop dying, I want all of us, Israeli and Palestinian, to be free and peaceful in this land we call home, and I also know for a fact that we are ruled by a 100% evil government - and if you think you're opening my six-point-starred eyes to this fact by trying to "well, ackshually" me about Israel well guess what, I know, I have always known, they are the ones that brought us here and knowing this is making my trauma actively worse because I have been screaming about Netanyahu for the last ten years (the "he's-a-fascist-dictator-in-the-making" kind of screaming) when even the leftists thought I was too extreme.
My government sucks (understatement) and the world is like "not saying you should die but I wouldn't cry if you did" @ half the world's Jews (also understatement) so like. The only thing I can turn to is my own people - and there, there's the one thing. Only one thing is giving me hope. People here aren't blind. We are informed, angry, and pushing back whenever we have an instant away from our trauma.
The world thinks living in Israel is sucking Big Propaganda dick and swallowing like the good Hasbara little whores that we are or what-the-fuck-ever but like. No one, no one is more informed and angry about Israel than Israeli Jews and we don't usually share it with the world because, lbr, a good chunk of it is Antisemitic enough as is and yes I'm sick of being labeled "one of the good ones" as if that wasn't Antisemitic enough on its own, but we know. We fucking know.
This is the only thing that has given me any shred of hope for this country. The majority of the people actually do know better, when push comes to shove. In the majority there was fear and naivete and idiocy but not (again: in the MAJORITY) malice. This is how the pipeline goes and you're stuck before you even know you're there. If elections were held today then hindsight would be the fucking James Webb. Not like it matters because we're here and people are dying. We are trapped between the rock of October 7 + perpetual existential trauma + growing Antisemitism, and the hard place that is the absolute evil that has ruled us for the past year and brought us here.
When the time of truth comes, I hope this nation judges them every bit as harshly as they have earned. I hope we hold them accountable for every single drop of blood. But until then. Until then we're powerless to stop this. We have no control over any of the worst parts of our existence at present.
And still? We still push back with all our might. We do. I push back, in any direction, because something's gotta give and it sure as fuck isn't going to be me.

For friendship asks-John and Arthur
When I think they became friends (if canon already hasn't showed how they became friends): Has canon established the when? I get the feeling they would have met in like late adolescence/young adulthood...like long enough ago for them to be casually calling each other "Jack" and (most tellingly for the son of a Wholeass Lord) "Art", but not long enough ago to have been "childhood friends."
My favorite scene of them: Arthur sobbing into Jack's arms while Jack awkwardly pats his back like "uh...there, there" and then later tells his phonograph "Dear Diary: I was so Normal and Masculine today."
A random headcanon I have of them: Well Jack is obviously canonically neurodivergent right? I get the sense Arthur kind of knows this, in whatever terms were available to non-psychologist Victorian English gentlemen lmao ("My friend Jack can be a bit of an odd chap, gets into funny moods and goes on tangents about the strangest things, but he's bloody brilliant") and frequently will play subtle defense against people who might judge him or make fun of him--which, given that he's the son of a Motherfucking Lord, often just consists of Standing With Him At Parties and Laughing At His Dumb Jokes (and occasionally subtly "translating").
My favorite thing about them: Literally never a question of jealousy or competition over Lucy!! Best Bros 4 Lyfe (also Quincey)
A scene I wish we had of them: Literally any Suitor Squad Shenanigans from pre-canon!!
A scene with them that I want to rewrite/change in some way: Hmmm maybe Arthur telling Jack not to be a dick to Renfield? "That man SECONDED my FATHER show some respect you ASS!"
What makes me like their friendship: It's just so prep+nerd
Who I think is the ”crazier” one: I mean if we're talking "Somewhat mentally unstable" then Jack. If we're talking "Down 2 clown at ALL TIMES" then Arthur (Jack will absolutely participate in shenanigans but he is hesitant to Instigate them).
Would I change anything about their friendship? More hugging and crying and Talking About Feelings mb.
A song that reminds me of them: Uh....hm. idk?
Which one of the friends can I relate to more? Need you even ask? I'll give you a hint: it's not the socially-competent one. :')
A word to describe them: Complicit
What I think would have happened if they never met: Lbr the only reason Jack has ANY friends other than Van Helsing is Arthur and/or Quincey. And it seems more likely that Jack would have met Arthur first, and then Arthur met Quincey thru some rich-guy-bullshit. So yeah. Jack with NO friends. He would already be at evil scientist levels by the time the story started.
If I can picture them to be more than only friends: It may surprise y'all but I really don't get into shipping beyond joking around fjckgjfjc. But I can fully believe JACK can picture that (or would like to, anyway, low self-esteem aside).
If I would want to be friends with them: Oh hell yes.

The "why would I do that?" and "maybe I just like you" responses to the suggestion he's following her around...when he's straight up been stalking her for like a year.
Leading her to believe vampires killed his family and he's on a vengeance quest and flirting to fluster her so she gets off the topic. But never technically lying so when the truth comes out he can say "I didn't say that, you just assumed."
Letting her ramble long enough for her to admit she's been obsessing over him when she thinks he's read her diary (which he probably did lbr).
The "I should go, I can't be around you because I want you too much" with clearly no genuine intention of actually leaving that just so happens to instigate a makeout session.
The implication that Buffy thinks she's in love with a guy who she literally knows nothing about, after never having a proper or honest conversation with him.
And the weeks of swooping in and running off. Doing stuff like giving her his jacket, giving her helpful info and expressing concern for her wellbeing, but being distant enough that she has to wonder whether he likes her or not. Making her question who he is and what he wants instead of being open, so she thinks about him all the time and creates a fantasy in her mind of who he is.

ULTIMATE SHIP MEME! || @w1dowed
Tumblr media
General:
Rate the Ship -   Awful | Ew | No pics pls | I’m not comfortable | Alright | I like it! | Got Pics? | Let’s do it! | Why is this not getting more attention?! | The OTP to rule all other OTPs
How long will they last? - till death and beyond the grave
How quickly did/will they fall in love? - honestly, I think negan always had this fascination with maggie. i mean, of all the girls in that line up why did he want to take maggie ? i mean cause she had a husband ? or cause like he said that one time in his cell that he saw the fire in her eyes. and even when he saw she was alive he remembered her ! i mean come on now ? interesting ain't it. now, when do I think negan falls for maggie-- well I think besides always having that little fascination over her, in our verse-- I think it's during that time in that house, where they are pushing at each other, and when they have sex for the first time... i think that's when negan feels... something for maggie awakens. like it's always been there, the lust for her and all. but in that moment, and the on going moments between them that happen. the more he gets to know her in our verse-- the cabin. he's a man, and a man who feels, and with that I feel like negan's emotions get a head of him. so the moment he falls in love with maggie is the moment their lips lock.
How was their first kiss? - hot, steamy, all the naughty in between the kisses. it was needy, urgent, and let's be real, no shame. well some shame cause it turned into sex LMAO.

Who is on top? - negan, but w/ maggie he definitely let's her top. which I don't think he has ever done w/ any other woman. but with maggie ? he has a lot of trust in her topping him.
Who is the one to instigate things? - both. both have their moments in instigating the other for sex.
How healthy is their sex life? - Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now

How long do they normally last? - listen 3 rounds in one day? maybe more-- negan has a high sex drive and he's gonna be coming after maggie every damn time for some good ol sex.
Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? - fuck yeah !! they love watching the other come apart. it's hot.
How rough are they in bed? - Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.
How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.

How many children will they have naturally? - 1 together. ( jack ) ( in other verses 2 ( tilly & jack )
How many children will they adopt? - 1 ? guess ginny if we add her into the mix of it ! ( and well in a way maggie kinda adopts tilly in, and negan the same with hershel ) though they don't have to call them mom/dad-- but still like adopt as part of the family.

March 14: My So-Called Life 1x05
This episode always affects me emotionally, like way more than I think it should, or that I think it should still. I don't know what that says about me. But the conversation between Angela and Patty where Angela talks about her perception of herself as ugly made me cry, and the ending gets me teary-eyed every time, too.
I really will hand it to this ep for going so hard on its theme. Literally every character, story line, even background item, was all pointing toward the theme of insecurity in one's physical appearance. I especially liked the details of the Shakespeare with makeup and the ever-more-defiled anti-smoking poster. Even characters without strong individual story lines get a little something--like Graham trying to floss again, or Bryan feeling insecure about all the couples.
I also liked how genuinely optimistic and heartwarming it was... Like, very few people exhibited any malice at all. There were the girls in the locker room being mean about the model on the magazine, and the nameless, faceless boys behind the list of sophomore girls. But for the most part, people hurt each other entirely accidentally, or, it might be more accurate to say, people hurt themselves, by attributing negative thoughts to others. No one cares that Angela has one tiny zit on an otherwise flawless face. No one thinks Patty is old and ugly. Kyle, representing the Himbo Jocks, likes Sharon for her personality as well as her body. Bryan doesn't care that Rickie wears makeup; if anything, he seems mildly interested in it all.
And when Angela and Sharon say hurtful things to each other, or when Angela says hurtful things to Patty, they end up talking it out later and not just forgiving each other, but talking out the reasons for their arguments. Every time characters left their own bubbles and shared their thoughts or insecurities with other characters, they were rewarded: Angela and Patty realizing they'd completely misunderstood each other, Angela and Sharon recognizing their shared insecurities, Bryan and Rickie bonding over their shared sense of themselves as outcasts, and the group in English all finding something to identify with or that was resonant in the Metamorphosis.
I really liked that conversation with Jordan, Brian, Rickie, and Sharon about the Metamorphosis. Yeah, that's an obvious story to track to adolescence, and that's fine, but I liked how... they were both characters speaking to their own themes and teenagers having a decently realistic conversation about a piece of writing. The analysis isn't necessarily deep, like Sharon's comment, but it's true to their experiences and the sort of things that would stick out to them, especially encountering this text for the first time. And Jordan... maybe this is just me seeing him as an adult, but what a sweet boy, at the end of the day. The way he encouraged Brian, a kid he barely knows, to go after Rayanne.... And the way he says that he thinks it's "plausible" that one could die of loneliness, especially in the context of his own housing insecurity, and the way he says it so subtly but thoughtfully, really breaks my heart.
It's interesting that this is the second episode in a row that's really focused on the Chases, this time another Angela and Patty parallel arc, with fairly little time given to Rayanne or Jordan, even though both characters were introduced in the pilot as sort of the instigators for Angela.
I'm not sure enough time was given to Rayanne. I see her promiscuity, especially now as an adult lbr, as a sort of cry for help. There must be something wrong with her, as the voiceover says--because she's not bothered by anything, or because she IS? I'm still convinced she has a thing for Angela. The way she was looking at her (looking super pretty in that dress), even though I know it's just 'let's all look at the main character syndrome' further convinced me.
My mind has been wandering a lot this whole time and it's also 11:30 somehow so I think it's time I got to bed.

❝ why don’t you get a real job? ❞ ( from Bri but it’s coming from a place of concern and care (and some ignorance lbr 😬 )
Instigation Starters
"Why does everyone keep asking me that?" Vale blurted out, a hurt expression in their eyes as they sat on Bri's couch, their godzilla slippers on their feet. With eyebrows furrowed, they stared at the floor, absentmindedly kicking their feet. Their question still stood: Why did everyone keep asking them that? Did they not have a real job? Merc work was a real job! They were working on commission and keeping the city a safer place. This was important shit!
"Do you really see my work as...not a job? All the shit I do, and it's not enough to be work? I come home at the strangest hours, bleeding, bruised, clinging to the few eddies I got, and that's not enough?" Their voice strains, wobbling under the stress of apparently nothing in their life being actually productive. "I'm sorry I don't sit at a desk or-or-o-or. Or get bodyguards to make sure I'm not hurt! But this is what makes me happy!"
Vale huffed and rubbed at their eyes, trying to force welling tears to stay put. "I don't care if you don't respect my work. But please just. Just act like you do. For my sake. It makes me happy to help people. It makes me happy to be a mercenary. I know it's not the cleanest or nicest or most respected job, but it's what I love to do, and that's enough for me."
