Gay things are afoot in this atomic “utopia”

Daryl Dixon took awhile to age mentally

As I read more and more analysis about Daryl and rewatch some of the earlier seasons, I wonder if it was intended for his character to have some kind of age regression issue. (I didn't do, like, extensive research, I just looked into some CPTSD and age regression signs on a few different sites, so this is just an idea I'm tossing out in hopes of hearing some other perspectives!)

The first situation that really catches my attention is his reaction to Merle being left in Atlanta. Now, obviously, this would be an incredibly emotional time for anyone and it's not entirely out of place to just say he was very distraught over the news and anyone could have reacted the same way he did. I just think that the specific way he did might have some signs. If you think about a grown man, especially one who was raised in a very macho household, you would assume that their reaction might be to storm out or yell at someone. Although Daryl did yell, he also started crying and pacing. It seemed almost as if he was having a full-on meltdown. Some signs of age regression are meltdowns (Ranting, shouting, insulting others, threatening others, whining, angry tears, or getting physically violent) that ring any bells?

I couldn't find a gifs of that exact moment :(

It probably didn't help that the entirety of the camp was staring at him as all of this happened. Temper tantrums can happen because someone is scared/ashamed and can't regulate themselves. (Like sensory overload.)

Another thing that I want to kind of address is the way Rick responds to Daryl when he's having these sorts of meltdowns. Throughout the series, and in the third episode, we see Rick bending down almost horizontally just so he can make eye contact with Daryl. He speaks to him like he's a child, and instead of feeling insulted, Daryl actually takes comfort in it and calms down!

"I'd like to have a calm discussion on this topic, do you think we can manage that?"

What is age regression?

We all know that Daryl was abused as a child, and trauma like that can sort of freeze the brain. This is a quote I really like that explains it: “It doesn’t necessarily make you stuck at a certain age, but instead, [you are] acting out the emotional wounding that happened at that age,” Lapides adds." People may start to regress because they are triggered or feel threatened, and an apocalypse seems like it would cause a constant trigger. Daryl might be reverting back to childlike behaviors as a trauma response. (honorable mention being the nail biting, but that's a bit of a reach) Shane being the way that he was could have also been a trigger for him.

One of the symptoms of age regression is overly clingy behavior. And you are probably thinking, "well, if there's anything Daryl has, it's not clingy behavior. He's a loner." I disregarded this too for awhile before I really thought about it. He is highly independent when he's doing things he's comfortable in, like being in the woods or going for runs. But when it comes to making decisions or being social, Daryl immediately clings to someone who he knows will do it for him. Most of his life he had Mere to hide behind. The most outgoing and shameless person alive. I don't think Merle ever asked Daryl his opinion on anything. He would decide, and Daryl would follow, and I think Daryl took a lot of comfort in that. So when Merle was gone, he latched onto Rick because he was the best choice. He knew Rick was a very righteous man who had plenty of leadership qualities. He knew Rick would make decisions for him, and give him directions.

Carol and Rick's mothering

Circling back to the way Rick would react to Daryl's outbursts, carol sometimes did the same thing. I know some people ship them, but honestly, at least in the earlier seaons, I got major mother/son vibes from the two of them. Especially when Beth died and she was trying to teach him how to grieve. The forehead kisses, the pookie nickname, all of it seemed to point in that direction. There was also another time Rick pulled the "Can we manage that?" move, and it was during Aiden and Glenn's fight in S5. He made sure to get low enough to make eye contact, and block his pacing. He kept telling Daryl that "We can't do this now." It all just looks a lot like he and carol are parenting Daryl, if only in moments where he is feeling intense stress and that trauma triggers.

Anyways, this was just a few ideas I was tossing around, and very clearly this in my first analysis lol, any thoughts?

[nixotene]

Kind of in awe over how similar the actors for tua seem to be to their characters (in interviews at least) so take this with a grain of salt. I just think it’s cool how the casting directors seemed to find the perfect actors to play the roles, both looks and personality wise.

Master list of details I’ve found they share with their characters ig lol

Luther/Tom: loves working out and apparently does his learning while working out (cut to scene of Luther doing push-ups while reading). He’s a big softy and loves bringing the group together. He’s always there to boost his fellow actors self esteem.

Diego/David: Acts big and boisterous but is actually very invested in how others perceive him. Wants to be seen as the cool macho one but (not so) secretly has a heart of gold. He also seems to be the one they’re most likely to lovingly bully. Also dated Ritu (Lila’s actress) but kept the relationship as hidden as possible.

Ritu/Lila: she laughs to hide her true emotions. She overall tries hard to hide her true emotions. Again, secretly dated David and were only found out by fans through their families. Hate to say this one but seemed to break up due to events of s4 (just speculation as they stopped following each other/deleted photos off their socials a little before the season came out which likely means issues while filming it).

Allison/Emmy: cares a lot about her self image. Is a famous actor. I mean, they all are but like she really holds herself as one in interviews. She has a very refined actor way of answering questions while still allowing herself to be fun. Honestly hard to tell if she’s like Allison because I can’t tell how she’s like off screen, which is a good thing. She does often refer to the others in sibling/family terms which is so sweet.

Klaus/Robert: always saying the most unhinged and out there things. Constantly barefoot. He’s the glue that seems to hold them together and always knows how to make light of a situation through use of his quirky humour. I don’t know how watching the final scene together would have gone without him. Also appears to be a drug connoisseur.

Five/Aidan: very quiet until he needs to say something. He seems to very much be an old soul in a kids body. I remember in an interview on how they handled shooting the final scene and he mentioned he didn’t cry until he was alone in his trailer because he takes awhile to process things like that. He just seems like a very thoughtful person.

Ben/Justin: kinda sassy but in the way that you just love him more. The others (especially David) seem to love to bug him constantly. I love this bc Ben and Diego do seem to have been close before Ben died. He enjoys his alone time and solitude. He is soft spoken yet sassy. Honestly feels like he acts like a mix between umbrella Ben and sparrow Ben which I love.

Viktor/Elliot: he’s pretty introverted and doesn’t speak much unless prompted. Just overall a sweetheart that doesn’t want any trouble. He’s also a writer. Also tramsgemder

[poppy-metal]

need art to be apologizing all the way through tho. need him to be sorry he got beat up, saying that he wished he couldve ripped the guy apart, need him going all "i should've hit him harder-" and so so sorry about the mess he's making, all bloody and mushy and then you start to suck the regret out right by his dick :((((

hes worried you'll think he's lame because he got beat so easily :((( you should have a cooler boyfriend. putting himself down as always. but you tell him you don't want a giant muscled macho man as a boyfriend - you want art. the kind of guy who doesn't care about consequences when it comes to defending his girl.

hes back to being mushy and smiley when you call yourself that. nose still busted and voice all nasally. "you're my girl?"

"duh, artie. have been for awhile - want me to show you?"

teeth digging into his split bottom lip. nodding almost shyly. you'd tease him more if you weren't so fucking horny and eager to throat his cock. hands immediately coming up to tug at his belt. you'll suck all the self doubt out of his cock - make it so messy and dirty he gasps and loses any rational thought.

Hello there I hope your doing well and your day is going well too ,so it say that in your ask box is open for request, well I would really love to request bottom ace with gn reader or just female reader, go wild it could be a headcanon or a short fic dosent matter!

A/N: Oml hi anon! I am doing great and I hope your doing good as well!^^ sorry it took me awhile to get to ur request I have finals coming up so I was studying hella hard, but your request has been fulfilled and I cannot fathom how bad I would top this man js sayin. Also the song NASTY by russ helped write this But enjoy all my lovelies! ;3

Characters: Bottom!Ace x fem reader (fem is easier for me I hope thats alr!) and all the good bottom-top stuff! also a bit NSFW so yea- no minor's pls!^^

Bottom Ace Headcanons

Okay firstly, like I said in my other NSFW Ace hc, he has a praise kink, he likes giving praise, but my oh my, does he LOVE receiving it, call him a "good boy~" or say "your doing such a good job love~" he's immediately melting into you, filling your womb with his kids.

He's a whimperer and a beggar, no doubt about it, like he'll act all macho-man in front of everyone else, but when you two are alone he's begging you to ride him harder, small whimpers escaping his pretty sun-chapped lips "p-please y/n~ a-ah~! harder!~..." he'll whine strands of his ravenette sticking to his sweaty forehead.

When you first asked to be on top, he was hesitant since he thought he wouldn't like it because he's usually on top, but when you teased and edged him to an explosive orgasm, he has now become your pillow princess, though of course he'll make sure you feel good too <3

Hair pulling. I don't know why but I feel like he enjoys it when you tug at his raven locks a stinging pain on his scalp elevating his high, makes him moan more too.

Aftercare: Mk so this bb needs lots of cuddles and kisses, receiving or giving wise, he likes to be little spoon and feel extra loved, will be a big baby if you say that you want to be little spoon cause thats his place 🥺 but will big spoon you none the less <3

He's a switch but prefers being bottom boy cause he's a little lazy and he also just passes out sometimes due to his narcolepsy, so instead of you having to wait for him to wake up (which can take hours hehe) you can just keep going cause why stop?

he regularly gets teased by Marco and Thatch because he "follows you around like a puppy" according to the both of them, but what they don't know is he is your little puppy bottom boi ;3

I apologize if this isn't well-written as it is my first time writing something like this but I hope the anon that requested it and everyone else enjoyed reading it as I did writing it! reposts/reblogs are welcome js credit me! <3

Stan catching u fingering urself after coming home early from some sort of meeting or event and when he catches u he makes u finish in front of him and then he’s like “u wanna be a slut? I’ll treat u like one” and like totally fucks u up???

Stan x F!Reader

[Submit a prompt for Sunday Smut-a-thon!] [Stan Marsh Master List]

I thought that I had earned some time alone. Stan disagreed.

I was in bed, naked, legs spread with two fingers inside, grinding my clit on the heel of my palm when He walked into our bedroom.

We had a pact. No masturbation. We had to save all of our sexual energy for each other.

He threw his hands up, “You’ve gotta be kidding me,”

I quickly pulled my hand off myself and my face felt hot like I was sitting next to a fire.

“You might as well finish,” He said climbing over me.

“What?” I was embarrassed, I’d broken our pact and even worse, he caught me.

He grabbed my wrist and pushed my hand back between my legs, “Don’t act shy now,”

My fingers brushed against my clit and my leg twitched. I was so close before… I might as well finish, right?

His eyes were glued between my legs as I started to touch myself. Nervously at first, but the longer we went on, the more turned on he was getting and so was I.

His cock twitched against his zipper and just the sight of it sent me over the edge. I moaned loudly and he locked his mouth onto mine. I could feel his hands fumbling between us as he hurried to free himself.

I was still coming down from my orgasm when he swiftly pushed inside of me. I gasped as he squeezed inside of me without any kind of warning. I was even more surprised as he kept thrusting hard and fast.

Stan usually would take awhile to let it build and get into a rhythm… Not this time.

Is he still mad at me?

I put my hand on his cheek because I wanted to ask, but he snatched my wrist and pinned it down by my head.

“Stan, why–”

“Why, what?” He smirked, “Why am I fucking you like some common whore? Because I caught you acting like one,”

He could get a little insecure and controlling but even then he never treated me like this. I whimpered involuntarily but it just seemed to piss him off more.

“You’re such a fucking whore you couldn’t keep your hands off of yourself,” He slammed into me so hard that my whole body jumped, “Did it feel good? Does it feel better than when I touch you?”

“Of course not,” I whined.

His hand slid down my arm, tracing the skin until it closed around my throat, “Maybe I shouldn’t let you talk if you’re just gonna lie,”

He used his grip around my neck as leverage to force me down onto him and pound into me harder. My eyes rolled back and my back arched I don’t what button he pushed in my brain, but I came harder than I ever have. I moaned so loud, I was worried they could hear me outside. I was so caught up in my own bliss that I hardly noticed how close he’d gotten until he bucked up into my violently and groaned even louder than I did. He sounded so fucking angry and turned on at the same time, knew that this wasn’t some macho display just for show. His cock pulsed so violently as he pumped his hot, sticky seed into me that it almost hurt. It felt like he was stretching me out a little with each spurt.

I scanned his face as he panted over me and his mouth curled into a smirk, “Don’t look so relieved yet. I’m not done with you,”

[smytherines]

Alright. We know that Owen is trying to get Chimera's surveillance network up and global, to have "a world without agencies, a world without spies, a world without secrets."

We also know that the US government is attempting to do basically the same thing as Chimera.

Hear me out. What if it isn't that Owen doesn't care about exposing men like him and Curt. What if he's actually, in some weird way, trying to protect Curt? Or liberate him? Or at least, men like them?

Like maybe it started out as wanting to destroy Curt, as DMA he certainly wanted to kill Curt. But he didn't. I don't think he would've even if Tatiana hadn't rescued him. At least not from behind, without showing Curt who he really was first.

DMA was a role for Owen. He probably tortured a bunch of people. He probably even enjoyed it. He's kind of fucked up after breaking probably half the bones in his body and watching his partner run away before getting a building exploded on him. I think it's easier for him to be DMA than to be Owen Carvour. He is literally masking (autistic Owen headcanon for the win).

Owen has no logical reason to tell Curt about his plan or reveal who he really is after killing Von N*zi. The only possible reason is to get Curt to chase after him. So much of my Owen Carvour headcanon is based entirely on the acting choices Joey Richter makes during the staircase scene, because holy shit it is truly spectacular (obviously Curt Mega does an amazing job too, but it doesn't subvert anything about the character for me until the Big Reveal).

It looks like Owen has so much he wants to say, he has the gun on Curt for quite awhile just chattering away at him, but he's so furious and he hates Curt so much and he loves Curt so much that he can't find the words. He tries to be icy and distant and cold and condescending, but he looks... I dunno, incredibly sad? He's frustrated, like he cannot understand how Curt still worships all of this macho spy shit, working for a government that would destroy him for being gay.

My headcanon is that Owen wants to dismantle everything Curt ever believed in because what he believes in led to Owen nearly dying and Curt diving off the deep end with his alcohol use. Their governments destroy men like them, and having a surveillance network will only make that task easier. If Owen has control of that network, he'll be a God. Nobody will be able to touch him, or use his secrets against him. Maybe even somewhere in the back of his mind he thinks that he'd be able to protect them, as a couple.

Back to the acting choices, the part where Curt reminds Owen of their relationship, where he steps right into the gun and Owen lowers it (pointing it at Curt's heart, ugh) and he genuinely looks hesitant, he looks taken aback, like he didn't expect Curt to care about him or about their relationship at all anymore. And then he remembers what Curt did to him, remembers how much he suffered for Curt's hubris, maybe has a lil PTSD flashback of his own, and raises the gun back up and says "that secret died the night you left me for dead." That whole moment is just... a really tremendous acting job. He loves Curt, but he can't forgive him. He hates Curt, but he can't kill him.

It's a great scene on paper, but the choices they make here are all perfect. The staircase scene swap really drove this point home for me too, because actor Curt Mega is incredible, he nails the menace and the arrogance that are definitely part of that performance, but it's a cold read and definitely a different read on the character.

The thing that makes me an Owen Carvour apologist is how much emotion and vulnerability and uncertainty Joey Richter puts into the role. For an evil guy doing evil guy shit, he doesn't play it very arch. He does the menace and arrogance, but those aspects keep getting pushed to the background by the little breaks in his voice and the sadness in his eyes.

For me, the moment before Curt pulls the trigger, Owen looks almost... disappointed in him? Like he really thought that despite everything that has happened, that Curt would never choose to hurt him on purpose. I said it before, but it's like in some way he's still in the rubble waiting for Curt to save him. To care enough about him to save him.

I know how I interpret this show is based a lot more in acting choices and real-world politics and my political beliefs than it is in the text of the show, that this is a genre show with genre rules, but I really fucking appreciate having gay characters who were canonically in a relationship, who have enough complexity and are played with enough sincerity for people (me) to have long, involved headcanon about them.

(Also to be very very clear, actor Curt Mega does an incredible job in the staircase scene, the moments where agent Mega gets to be vulnerable and sincere are some of the best acting moments in the show and hurt every single time, when he steps into that gun I feel like I'm dying)

[viilpstick]

╰┈➤ 𝐩𝐮𝐬𝐡: Who told to sing for someone as a way to confess how they feel for you? No, scratch that, better question… Who gave them permission to play guitar?

𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔: Epel Felmier, Sebek Zigvolt, Kamlin Al-Asim, Ace Trappola x GN! Reader (separately)

𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒓𝒆: Fluff, crack, kinda cringe, headcanons + small scenarios :) (if you squeeze your eyes, there is a tiny agnst in epel’s part)

𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔: Bad english, Reader is not necessarily yuu!! A bit OOC, Barbie spoilers (? I think, it was just inspired by one scene of it), use of the word "Prince/Princess" in Kamlin's part.

this btch is the reason why I am doing this scenario 😭😭

Blame Ashton. Literally.

Alright, but seriously, he thought it was a good idea. Ashton did NOT had bad intentions on putting on this situations.

And, that man is old/j

He probably did this in his early teen years and it worked

Plus, Epel trusted him more than Vil’s advice when it comes to you (for some obvious reasons)

So, when he sees you uncomfortable face as he tries to make you think is his the most masculine man ever, he heart aches a bit, like?

“What? How… I thought they would like me in masculine way— Did I do something wrong? It can’t be, I hate to think Vil was right… They hate me, now?”

He’s overthinking! Apologize. 😡

You like Epel, but, man… Is he /srs or /j?

You’ll have to sit down and explain why you actually were uncomfortable; he’s forcing himself so much to be what he wants, that he forgets he could just be his normal self, not the ultra mega macho man, but not also Rarity from my little pony. Just… Him.

Because that’s what you like

It was the best idea Ashton had. Literally he’s so grateful he ran to him, instead of Vil. Who would make him look like a pretty princess awhile you would look like a Prince Charming. It was all set up, nothing could or should go wrong.

Taking a deep breath at the point he could feel the air whirling through his lungs, he took the guitar, a nervous smile was now forming as the confident façade was starting to fall down from his grip. It can’t happen, it just can’t. You are now here standing looking at him with a confused look waiting for his move, Epel needs to prove himself worthy.

When he starts, you cringed… Just so badly. You really like Epel, and think it’s sweet of him, but is he really just singing you “Push” by Matchbox Twenty? Thankfully, you were able to put up with it. At least the forty seconds of it, when you actually started to sweat cold. You started to check the time more than once, give a uncomfortable smile, looking around anywhere but his eyes, and it was when his fingers slip through the chords that he noticed; your uncomfortable expression.

And it may seem something he wouldn’t mind… If it was anyone else, but this is you we are talking about. He’s been crushing on you for so long. He stops playing putting down. Muttering a “Forget it,” than a “sorry”. It was when, you realized. Your mistake!

Sure, the moment was terrible. It was cringe and painful to watch. You take a deep breath and analyze, why you didn’t like that moment. Was it because of him? Definitely no. Was it because of the song? Maybe?

It took you a moment, when you realized. He wasn’t doing it for you nor him. But for his desperation for self proven of showing how strong and cool he is, Epel hates being mistaken by someone cute and pretty. He wants to be like those masculine man, those who have muscles and bodies are big.

A sigh leave your lips, as you take him by the cheek placing a sweet kiss, that trails to his mouth making him speechless. He completely looses composure as he watches you with the awe struck eyes, making you chuckle.

“I appreciate the gesture, but, next time… Put more a detail of yourself as a whole. Not just that part who wants to be something else.” A smile was placed on your face. As you reassure, behind the small letters, and choices of words, you like him for him. And honestly, that’s what matters. Maybe, the use of “just be yourself”, makes sense.”

You see that pink haired mf?

That’s the reason of why are you staring at Sebek on the couch trying to get the chord right.

For the fifty time.

You and Sebek were already dating for awhile, but usually you were the one to plan dates and take him out away from Malleus.

That’s when Lilia comes up, and says he should be more romantic with his loved one.

So, why not… Learn to play guitar, learn Matchbox Twenty lyrics of Push, take you out to hang out on Diasomnia and listen you play to him?

Good idea old man! ☝️🤓

Everytime someone passes through the Diasomnia lounge and your boyfriend is playing the lyrics (or… Trying to), you start to panic in embarrassment.

Not 100% of Sebek, you really think it’s sweet his gesture. He did put a lot of effort on memorizing a song for you and etc… But why, this song? Why??? 😭

“Sebek— I think it’s really sweet… But, it’s getting late and we don’t want you to get noise complaints—“ You try to make Sebek stop of singing and playing. But his stubbornness, was speaking WAY louder.

Sitting there quietly you waited for him get the right chord. As he gives a frustrated expression. Cursing under his breath every time he got it wrong, he even watched a video showing his to play the chord.

“Why it’s gotta to be so difficult?!” He loudly says closing his phone and putting away the guitar. Crossing his arms, refusing to look at your face. Like an angry child.

“Oh, you were doing great.” You encourage, but a small part was hoping for him to not believe at you, so he would stop playing the repetitive song that would clearly play in your brain for the next twenty four hours.

“I just don’t get it! Lilia says it’s better for me start to planning things for our time alone. And then, Grim says people love music so why aren’t you liking this?” He confesses the true reason of why he is been getting the same chord wrong, over and over again. He knew what he was doing (and probably for the first he was too shy to ask you in fear of your answer).

You simply chuckle. True, you may or may not exactly be liking the choice of song, since it didn’t matched you nor him. But, were you in any way uncomfortable with him? Never. You take his hand and warmth feeling rushes through his body looking to him on the eyes.

“Sebek, I think what Lilia meant is a date where we can hang out and you are away from Diasomnia. Grim, on the other hand, was probably thinking of slowly dancing.”

“Oh.”

As you explain you notice the realization hitting him. Good. Because, now you both look at the guitar and laugh together. It felt good that moment where only you two matter.

“But, thank you. I never had someone playing Push for me in my life.” You chuckle once again, leaning to give a peck on his lips. “And, if you want, we can plan the next date—“

“YOUNG MASTER!!” Sebek soon leaves you for Malleus who was walking by, to assist him any way.

You simply shrugs, but when you noticed his red cheeks… His reaction was purely a way to cover his shy self. You smile at the situation, taking the guitar to give you a look.

“You hold evil powers.”

No, because he did it in a Allan energy with Alladin intentions kinda of way, yk? 😰😰

It was actually sweet seeing him getting ready when…

“Kamlim, why are you playing Push?” “Isn’t that what people like?” “No?” “Oh…” There was a silence between you both as he takes a deep breath and: “I can show you the world—”

It wasn’t supposed to be in a Ken way, but when he asked for advice it was for Ace. Since, you both were close.

And instead of Ace ACTUALLY ask you for an idea, he comes up with the most random song for Kamlin to play for you

“Should we blame Kamlin?” “Or blame guitars players?” “Or should we blame Matchbox Twenty?”

No! Blame Ace! 😡

I think, Ace did not had bad intentions but he at the same time he had... I don't know

Either way, he just shrugs laugh and play another song.

Like, another day, another slay, period.

At the end was just him being innocent and not following his heart when he was going to choose a song to sing for you

Don't worry, he sings "A whole new world" for you

"A new fantastic point of view, no one to tell us no--" "--From where do you know this song?" "I don't know-- It just came to my mind." "Cool." "A whole new world!"

You both sat in his room, him on his bed and you on the floor on the blue and red carpet, you could only look at him in a endearing way, when he told you he wanted to play you a song, obviously you couldn't say no.

He sings so well, is the small touch of calmness and sweetness of his tone that could melt you in seconds. But, when he plays the first few chords your face fell into a confused one... Why the fuck. Was Kamlin. Playing Push??? It's a great song, really but, him singing it for you is just so, out of character of his "sunshine persona".

You give an awkward smile and nod trying to actually not laugh, man, his voice was beautiful. But, why Push? Who gave him that idea? His eyes were caught on you and though he takes time to understand your feelings usually, he knows something is wrong. Like, instantly he stops his tracks to calculate, were you not liking the song? Him singing? Did he got any chord incorrectly and you noticed?

"Prince/Princess? Are you okay? You didn't like it?" He looks at you with his doe eyes, but there was a worried smile after all the last thing he wants is see you not enjoying his actions, specially when is him for you.

You chuckle and smile, shaking your head. "Why are you playing Push by Matchbox twenty?" You raise your eyebrow completely confused with a signature upside down smile.

"Ace told me you would like it." He says now getting confused, you cursed under your breath. "You don't?"

"Well, I do like the song and you... But, I never thought you would play something like that, you know?" Holding your breath, you chuckle with the consuming confuse aura taking over you both.

He looks at you before smiling and laughing, as he takes to think of the situation, it was indeed not like him.

He pats the bed for you to get off the carpet, you smile sitting "Well, makes sense. So, would permit for me to sing a more... Characteristic song for you?" You raised your eyebrow yet, didn't denied, he starts play a familiar yet unfamiliar tone. Like, you have heard it before, but at the same time it was something completely new. Softly smiling upside down to him, your hand went to your legs as you heard him play.

"I can show you the world, shining, shimmering, splendid!"

Did for the meme, I think...

Honestly, Deuce and Grim were watching you both from afar with popcorn

(I hope you are ready to have lots of memes of you face trying to NOT laugh)

Kinda cringe to see him thinking he's nailing it 😭

Girlie thought he slays 💅

He tried???

We can’t defend him, it was his idea and he thought it was a good one 😞😞

Honestly, you felt like doing those “don’t laugh challenge” but when you do…

At first he pouts as he stops playing, but man is so head over heels he can’t stay mad at you, honestly

He laughs a long with you, maybe he noticed how cringe it was, maybe not, but he never felt that good

You and Ace aren't exactly together, this is your second date, there was no kiss in the first date, and you hoped for this one you would be able to press your lips against his. And from all of things, he could've planned... All the things he could planned. Him singing to you Push by Matchbox twenty? Was out of your predictions to these year on your list.

From afar you saw Deuce and Grim laughing at the situation as you sat with a desperate look on trying to contain any laughter to come out of your lips.

It pains you, it was such a cute act. But, then it's Ace and he's trying to impress. Aside that, he does play really good. Now, does he sing well? Sevens, no.

Your lips trembles, holding you breath to calm yourself down. Your smile was there but each time he looks away it turns into an upside down smile. You were sweating cold, man.

Plus, the song seemed to never end! Like, you are struggling! And Deuce and Grim laughing behind you both, trust me. It. Didn't helped your situation.

"Well, I won't do anything at ahLL-" He sighs in dissapoint when he get that note wrong... "Shit. Ha... Sorry."

He says. But, how were you... When he got a note out of tune, it was the last drop. The small slip in a normal situation would be unnoticeable, but this was a try not to laugh at Ace, level impossible. When that one note was played wrong. You couldn't contain any longer. As you almost fell behind laughing holding your tummy.

Ace looks at you with a pout, why were you laughing? He made a mistake it was not funny! Deuce and Grim on the back were now laughing even harder, if that was somehow possible? Deuce even chocked on air.

For a moment, poking fun at others was no longer entertainment. But, you couldn't stop, it was really impossible at the moment. He looks at you laughing with a small tear at the corner of your eye, the surroundings seemed to freeze. You really look beautiful, honestly, it didn't matter if your laugh was scandalous or in mute, if you putted your hand before your mouth or opened your mouth fully. He was just, like, completely at your mercy, by your mere existence.

"Sorry, Ace. It was Deuce and Grim's fault, I swear--" Your apologise fell into his deaf ears as you slowly calmed down. But, you wouldn't be able to process it correctly anything else, after he puts his hand under your chin pulling you closer to his lips, his breath tickled your upper lip as he pulls you into an endearing kiss. It took seconds for him pull away, leaving you with a blank expression awhile inside of you there were not even butterflies, just exploding fireworks in your stomach.

His laugh was what brought you back to where you were, to reality, closer to him.

"Heh... It really wasn't what we expected or first kiss to be. Don't worry in another life, I won't sing Push for you."

(A/N: When I was watching Barbie, Epel was all I could think about in that scene 😭)

Have you seen the TikTok that Jungkook liked and people are gossiping about? It's a video of a girl dancing Seven, but she's wearing a short crop top and baggy jeans that keep falling very low (she even has to censor it when it shows too much), which shows the string of very thin panties around her hips. Pretty much a sexy video. It's not funny, it's not cute...it's just sexy.

People keep saying he liked it because of Seven and because she was dancing to it, but I don't know about that....... 🤡

I have seen the TikTok but didn’t know there was gossip about it. But y/n JJK stans will do anything to “prove” that JK is hetero I suppose, so I’m not surprised. I didn’t get a “sexy” vibe from that video no more than anyone else doing the choreo to Seven. But since women are sexualized for their choice of clothing, I’m not surprised that people’s misogyny is showing. That’s a trendy style in Korea (look at other kpop girlies) and for dancers in general.

It’s a fact that JK’s likes are pretty much choreo covers with a few BTS jokes and memes sprinkled here and there. Him liking a video of a women dressed “sexy” is not proof of a heterosexual orientation. Did he say that she bit his neck? Did he suck on her sweaty ear in a stadium of 90k people? Because those things also happened, but those weren’t proof of his sexual orientation either. Especially not for the “JK is unequivocally straight” crowd of fans. I don’t attach any motive for him liking that video other than she was doing a great choreo cover so he liked it. He also liked a choreo video of a guy pole dancing to Seven awhile ago. But you didn’t attach the same narrative to that did you? Ah, that’s right because it’s not fitting your belief that JK is straight. I don’t seek out the “gay” in everything that JK does but boy do the straights try to see everything that he does as macho playboy heterosexual man. Ick.

Just had this thought but I’m curious… the punch out Wii men reacting to their s/o proposing to them?

Doc Louis: Looks like you have beaten him to it darling, honestly the night you decided to propose to him was also the night he was gonna propose to you. It’s definitely going to be a story he’s going to bring up at parties whenever he can.

Glass Joe: As much as he wanted to be the one to propose to you, it does warm his heart that you proposing first means that you actually want to be with him. Which does bring a few small tears to his eyes.

Von Kaiser: This man was in shock when you proposed to him as he did have a plan to propose to you but it seems that you will always find a way to surprise him. He’s not mad about it honestly once the shock wore off he was quite amused by it.

Disco Kid: There is a flood gate of tears coming out of this man’s face once you present the ring to him. He is just so happy that you want to share your life with him, just be prepared for some killer moves from him for your first dance.

King Hippo: Honestly it is custom in his culture for the leaders to be proposed to by their potential spouse, so when you did propose he just agreed immediately to it.

Piston Hondo: Much like Doc he wanted to propose to you on the same night you proposed to him, and he does almost immediately after you. The whole situation makes his face run red because of how sweet your engagement ring’s exchange was.

Bear Hugger: The moment you pull out the ring box he is pulling you into his arms and saying yes to the proposal before you can even utter the words. You can bet that in the next few days Miss Bear will know about your engagement.

Great Tiger: With all his magical arts and tricks he is happy that he can still be able to be surprised by you. Though most his opponents wouldn’t know it but under his clones gloves they also have a copy of his engagement ring on.

Don Flamenco: This man was definitely a bit bitter for awhile that you proposed to him first as it really took a hit to his pride. But after much scolding from his best friend Carmen he has learned to let it go and be happy that you actually wanted to be with him forever.

Aran Ryan: While he will always tell the world circuit boxers that he was the one to propose to you, he will always happily tease you that you were the one that wanted to stick with him through thick and thin. Especially if he’s up to something dumb.

Soda Popinski: No matter who’s proposing to who it is a time of celebration and many, many drinks. This man will be in tears as soon as the ring is actually on his finger as soon you will be able to properly call him yours.

Bald Bull: He actually preferred you taking the reins of the proposal as that way the paparazzi wouldn’t be able to ruin it. That being said he only wears his engagement ring inside your shared home to not tip off the paparazzi to any potential wedding in the works.

Super Macho Man: Much like most things in his life it will be on the internet within the hour. He honestly doesn’t mind that you were the one that proposed to him as long as the ring looks good, then he honestly doesn’t care.

Mr Sandman: He does feel slightly bitter that you were the one to propose to him but shakes these feelings off as at least he truly knows that you want to be with him and not his persona that puts on. He also happy that he no longer has stress about finding the right time to propose to you, it has honestly stopped 3 buildings from being destroyed.

Omg Ghosts was awesome!! I seriously loved it and was so mad when they said they weren't going to do a sequel because it didn't get many good reviews? Or not enough ppl bought it? Whatever the reason was it was stupid and they should of did a 2nd game anyways 😂 I'm still so sad that we were captured at the end and am now just sitting at the bottom of a hole about to be tortureddd 😭 that is a horrible ending and for the aftermath of it to never be spoken of again is evil tbh 😂

I actually did like the black ops games where the focus was with Mason and Woods. Same with MW and 141. It's when they started going away from those characters and storyline I was like eh. I remember in one of those advanced warfares or whatever they were like going back in time or something and then the world ended or something idk 😂😂😂 they were doing the most after awhile.

Last year I also ended up buying all the OG mw games and playing them again. I remember going into the gamestop and told the employee i wanted the 1st mw and he was like ok yeah no prob and handed me the 2019 one. I was like no i want the 2007 one. He was like 2007?!?!? 😂😂😂 Now I have the old ones and the reboots....plus ghosts 😂 I also can't stand the shape of the PS remotes so that's why I stuck with XBOX 😂

I feel like everyone I've personally talked to that enjoyed Ghosts has been a woman or female presenting so...that's probably why they didn't do a sequel 🙄

I didn't mind Advanced Warfare. It was kind of fun. Infinite Warfare was a bit insane lol. I struggled through it. I think when they started adding the like futuristic tech stuff and it became a lot more than just shoot here and blow this up, that's where they lost me.

Omg 🤣 not him being shocked about you wanting the OG original. I bought the remastered versions of the first two they released lol. I'll say they did make some improvements on the OGs in those. I still enjoy them and am partial to them for nostalgia's sake but I have come to enjoy the reboots a lot. I like that they fleshed out the characters and gave them actual personality besides just tough macho man fantasy.

See I'm the opposite, I hate Xbox controllers 😂 I have tiny hands though, so I like the Playstation controller shape (at least the ps4 controller shape)

Willing chapter 3

TW: period typical homophobia.

"You want some?"

(Y/N) blinks back to reality, picking his head up to look to his side. He's sitting on the bench hidden in the forest behind the school, a little spot for people to relax and smoke. He'd planned to sit alone and sort out his thoughts, however it seems someone had other ideas.

Beside the wooden table stands Hawkin high's most infamous student. Eddie munson. In all his long hair and denim clad glory.

The jock glances down to eye the hand held out to him, a joint pinched in between his fingertips. (Y/N) smiles but shakes his head at offer "thanks but I'm good, man." The metalhead shrugs "suit yourself" he says moving to sit beside the other teen as he feels around his pockets for a lighter. Any other time (Y/N) would take Eddie up on the offer, but he's meeting Billy soon and he's not too sure how the drug might affect his vampiric friend. He'd rather not accidentally spike the blonde.

Eddie's quiet as he lights up and takes a drag "it's been awhile since we last hung out" the tone has (Y/N) raising an eyebrow. Eddie clearly has something he wants to get off his chest. "Yeah, a good couple of weeks" he agrees, eyeing the metalhead as he waits for the other shoe to drop. "You've been hanging with Hawkin's kings a lot lately."

Here we go.

"I get that you had trouble with them in the past-" he sighs "it's not that, (Y/N). They're assholes" Eddie frowns, meeting his friend's gaze "I don't want them rubbing off on you." (Y/N) sighs leaning back on his hands, the wood of the table's surface is rough beneath his palms "I'm not going to forget about you, Eddie." He couldn't even if he tried to, the metalhead was an enigma. He's not someone you can get out of your mind easily. "They aren't bad guys" Eddie scoffs and (Y/N) shoots him a glare that has him holding his hands up in surrender. "Steve and Billy have changed a lot, they're good people" now it's Eddie's turn to glare.

"They're bullies and stuck up pricks" Eddie takes another drag "you're one of the only decent jocks around here, it'd suck if that changed" he sighs. "Aww, I'm only decent?" (Y/N) changes the subject knowing they'd just be going round in circles again if he tried to plead his case. Eddie huffs a laugh and rolls his eyes "well your company isn't terrible, but I just don't think you're weird enough." The jock laughs loudly "you should really fix that" he teases leaning his head on Eddie's shoulder.

He liked hanging out with Eddie. He didn't feel like he had to put up such a macho front like he did with the other jocks. He didn't have to put up with the slaps on the back or bum, Eddie was more of a hugger, clingy in a way but not overwhelming. He respected (Y/N)'s boundaries and always seems to know when he needs some quiet company. All in all the jock and the freak were an unlikely duo, but they made it work.

Admittedly (Y/N) knew it was a jerk move to ask Eddie to hang out after school, but he couldn't get over the idea of Eddie not getting along with his friends. It's a selfish thought, but he wants them all to hang out together. To prove Steve and Billy had changed for the better.

So a quick phone call and the promise of beers has Eddie agreeing to swing by after he gets changed, again. (Y/N) had caught the metalhead right after he'd gotten into his PJs for a lazy day.

"That's a yes from Eddie" the jock smiles as he hangs up the phone, turning to face the guests leaning against the kitchen counter talking quietly. Billy grunts his acknowledgement, pulling a face "I still need to feed" he points out, eyeing the expanse of (Y/N)'s neck "should probably get that over with before he gets here."

He doesn't need to say much more than that, his friend is already tugging off his shirt and setting it aside on the counter. "Take what you need" (Y/N) coaxes moving towards the blonde, tilting his head to the side to show off the smooth skin of his neck. Billy's hands find purchase on the teens waist as he leans in to trail his lips along his throat.

He knows it's just Billy's instincts. His mind reminds him of it every time the vampire feeds, but it's easy for his heart to want more. Easy to imagine what his lips might feel like against his own. Sometimes he wonders what Billy would say if he knew what went through his mind and he cringes. Unfortunately even his daydreams can't conjure a positive reaction.

He'd be pissed if he found out. Disgusted at the selfish reason (Y/N) allows himself to be bitten. Men shouldn't think the way he does about his friend. Billy could get pretty heated at the best of times, (Y/N) can only imagine the heat he'd get if he was ever open with his feelings. No doubt he'd lose his shit at hearing he'd been hanging around a fag this whole time.

Hands rub against his skin, running from his elbows to his shoulders in a soothing repetitive pattern. (Y/N) leans back against Steve's chest, accepting the comfort he offers them.

Steve is more than happy to take (Y/N) into his arms, smoothing his hands across the teens skin. "You're good" he mumbles, resisting the urge to bury his nose in their hair. It feels silly to admit that he's quite jealous of the situation (Y/N) is in. He had hated the idea of being bitten when he first found out about Billy's true nature, but ever since he'd let Billy drink from him it's all the jock can think about. Maybe he could suggest the vampire feed on him next time.

Billy's eyes flick up to meet his own, peeking up at him through long lashes. The vampire has his face tucked into (Y/N)'s shoulder as he drinks, despite those dark eyes being focused on him. So different to the blue eyes he had so often associated with the blonde. Come to think of it, both Billy and (Y/N) had been on his mind a lot lately. Their smiles, their laughs, they took up constant residency in his mind. Had he always thought about them this much? Maybe he had always had (Y/N) on his mind, but Billy hargrove? That was admittedly a little surprising. They had started off as rivals afterall. Yet here he is, mind still hooked on the vampire.

Steve's hand traces up (Y/N)'s bicep, eyes still caught on those icy blue ones. His hand continues up, hesitantly threading through Billy's golden curls. The vampire hums against (Y/N)'s skin, his eyes slipping closed as Steve pets his hair. Nails lightly tracing over his scalp, he hadn't expected Billy to allow him this.

A repetitive knocking has the three of them jumping, jolting from each other's embrace. "Shit that'll be Eddie" (Y/N) guesses. "It's okay. I'll keep him occupied and you..." Steve says pointing to Billy "clean up."

He leaves the room to stall for time. Billy didn't get nearly enough blood, they all know it. But he can't worry about that now.

Eddie is confused to find Steve Harrington opening the door for him, the jock plasters and easy going grin on his face despite looking so flustered. "Hey Eddie" he exclaims, crossing his arms over his chest as he leans on the doorway. Eddie jerks his head up in a nod "Steve." The air is awkward as Steve leads the metalhead into the living room, not long after (Y/N) and Billy hargrove make their way into the room with a beer for each of them.

(Y/N) taps his nails on the tin of the can as they sit opposite Eddie "sorry, I forgot to mention Steve and Billy were coming over" he apologises but Eddie simply waves him off. However it's clear that the metalhead is clearly more withdrawn than his usual self.

A few beers in and he begins to warm up to the group a little bit, though (Y/N) knows he's holding back still. Being weird at school in front of a crowd around his friends is one thing but being weird at a small personal gathering and knowing only one person there is a whole other situation.

Billy isn't fairing much better. The blond taps his foot repetitively as the group sit and talk. They know Billy didn't get nearly enough blood to sate him. He can still taste the sweet tang of (Y/N)'s blood on his tongue which only serves to invigorate his thirst.

(Y/N) offers to get new beers for everyone as he heads into the kitchen to throw away his can. The beverage hisses as he cracks the tab, basking in the refreshingly cool liquid as he takes a sip. The tense atmosphere in the living room feels suffocating. Maybe it had been a bad idea to try and merge his friend groups.

"What's on your mind?" (Y/N) chokes on his, jerking the can from his lips as he's startled. "Ah shit!" He curses, holding his free hand to his mouth as he turns to face Billy. "Dude, I thought we talked about this? Don't sneak up on me like that" (Y/N) hisses with no real heat behind their words.

Billy ignores his complaint, stepping closer to the jock. They still as he gently grips their chin, scrutinising their face with a concerned gaze. His cheeks feel warm under Billy's gaze, a thumb lifts to prod his lower lip. Ice blue eyes have him pinned in place, unable to look away. Any words the man might have stick in his throat as the blond leans towards him.

(Y/N) is sure he must be dreaming when cool lips capture his own. It doesn't make sense for the jock to kiss him. Billy makes his attraction to women known with every other breath, he wouldn't kiss another boy.

(Y/N) hisses as his lip stings under Billy's tongue. A cut, he'd cut his lip on the can. Billy wasn't interested in kissing him, he wanted the blood coating his lips. The realisation has his chest squeezing painfully. Just another instinct tied to Billy's vampirism.

A large warm hand cups his cheek, the thumb brushing his ear softly. Billy kisses the human deeply, groaning at the sweet taste of blood on his tongue. He wants more of it, needs more. He wants to drain (Y/N) of every precious drop, like a man dying of thirst.

(Y/N) is stiff against him, his lips remain frozen against him. It'd be disappointing if not for the sweet distraction he's chasing. A gasp from the kitchen doorway has Billy's head snapping up to find Eddie standing, mouth agape as he stares at the two men. He wants to growl at him to leave, let him go back to drinking in (Y/N). But hands on his chest force him to take a few steps back, breaking his mindset.

"It's not what it looks like" (Y/N) claims, voice climbing in pitch. "It's cool, I'm chill with it" Eddie attempts to reassure them with his hands held up. The jock groans, frustrated "no, you don't understand. I cut my lip and well he's" (Y/N) cuts himself off, shooting a truly pitiful look towards Billy. He's trying not to expose him and that's sweet but... "I'm a vampire." Billy could care less about his cover being blown right now, he's been interrupted whilst feeding twice now and it's really starting to irk him.

Eddie pauses to blink at them before he laughs "dude relax, I'm not against it. You don't have to make up weird ass excuses" he shrugs, still smiling. "You don't believe them?" Billy speaks up from their side to which Eddie shoots Billy a deadpan look "no, I don't" Eddie says rolling his eyes as if it's the most ridiculous excuse he'd ever heard.

And yeah, maybe it would be a stupidly weird excuse... if they had been regular teens. But Billy's never been a regular teen...

Billy moves too quickly for either student to react. He shoves the metalhead against the wall, hands fisted in his shirt, fangs bared in the teens face. "JESUS H CHRIST!" Eddie exclaims, hands held up in a fearful surrender. "That good enough for you?" The vampire's snarl is dangerously soft as he speaks. (Y/N) can only watch on, frozen in place as the vampire holds his friend up against the wall, Eddie's hands scramble aimlessly behind himself on the wall.

"Or maybe this?" Eddie scrunches his eyes closed, trying to push himself further back into the wall as Billy leans in to lick a slow purposeful line up the front of his throat. "Fuck, man! Please, I'm sorry!" He whimpers in the vampire's grip.

Eddie smell so good, so fucking good. He presses his nose to the skin, breathing in the sweet aroma of blood pumping just beneath the skin. He draws his lips against the throat, opening his mouth to graze his teeth along the surface. He feels intoxicated.

Finally (Y/N) manages to shake himself from his stupor, quickly moving to put himself between the metalhead and the vampire. He flattens a palm against Billy's broad chest, keeping him at a safe distance. "Billy" (Y/N) warns softly "you don't want to hurt him" he keeps his tone even, but that look on Billy's face keeps casting the poor teen back to their first encounter.

A feral look shining in those pretty blue eyes, pinning the two humans to the spot. Billy had terrified him back then, but not now. Not when he knows that his friend would never hurt him.

Meanwhile Eddie clings to (Y/N)'s shoulders, eyes wide and shaking with terror. "I know you're hungry...I can help with that. But not him, you promised no randomly feeding on strangers anymore" (Y/N) speaks softly to the blonde, trying to keep his attention on them.

Billy shifts his gaze to meet Eddie's big brown bambi eyes. He looks so on edge, terrified even. Pretty. "He smells good" his voice is low and dangerous, eyes never leaving Eddie's. (Y/N) pushes on Billy's chest when he tries to move forwards on impulse, Billy's eyes flick down to the hand pressed firmly against him. Warm and solid. "I smell good?" Eddie panics, gripping the teen's shoulder tighter which has (Y/N) reaching back with his free hand to touch the man's side in what he hopes is a comforting gesture.

Luckily he's saved from having to try to talk Billy around that as Steve enters the room. "I heard shouting, what happened?" He eyes the scene and suddenly Billy is focused solely on him, icy blue slowly beginning to bleed into the red of his eyes. He'd forgotten about Steve momentarily. But now with him standing in the kitchen doorway he remembers. He's been replaying the moment he fed on the man over and over in his head every day since. He and (Y/N) were so tempting. But he was allowed to taste (Y/N), all he had to do was ask. But Harrington had been a one time thing.

"Eddie knows. Billy slipped a little, I'm trying to bring him back" (Y/N) fills him in whilst not taking his eyes off of the vampire. Steve nods, turning his attention completely to Billy. "Hey Hargrove" he greets softly. Slowly he raises his hand palm up, outstretched to the man who glances at the limb and then back to Steve's face. "You're still hungry right?" He coaxes gently.

The crimson completely overtakes his eyes again before the blue bleeds back into them slightly. "You can feed on me but we need to go to the living room first, yeah?" Billy eyes Steve's neck, licking his lips before nodding and stalking towards the human, having completely forgotten about (Y/N) and Eddie.

The two stay quiet as Billy takes Steve's hand and allows the jock to lead him out of the kitchen. Giving it a moment (Y/N) then steps away from Eddie to turn and face him. Now the hard part. He grasps Eddie's shoulder, but fails at drawing the metalhead's attention. "I get that you're scared and that was a lot, but if you just trust me I'll explain everything." Eddie turns his eyes away from the door Billy had disappeared through to look at (Y/N). "I won't let you get hurt" (Y/N) promises looking so damn determined that Eddie almost believed he could fight the vampire off bare handed if he needed to.

"Five minutes, then I'm gone" the brunette mumbles, already regretting his agreement but the smile (Y/N) gives him is too bright for him to care about the possible consequences.

Leading Eddie back into the living room, (Y/N) convinces the metalhead to sit down. Billy and Steve are on the opposite couch, the vampire is too busy nosing at Steve's to notice the two humans. He can't see Steve's face since it's hidden in the crook of Billy's jean jacket, Eddie flinches watching Billy sink his fangs into the jock's neck. The arms around his waist tighten pulling the man closer, flush against the vampire as he feeds and Eddie can't seem to look away from the disturbing scene. He subtly pinches the skin of his forearm, wincing at the pain. He's awake, this isn't a dream.

Eddie finally tears his eyes away from the scene to look at (Y/N) who sits quietly beside him, observing the scene with no shame or fear present on his features. How long had they been 'feeding' Billy?

"So how did you find out he was a...vampire?" It feels weird to acknowledge that this is reality. The question breaks (Y/N) from his staring and he turns to face Eddie. His friend seems reluctant to answer the question for a moment "by accident" he shrugs "kind of how Steve found out, caught him feeding and well that was that." The answer is vague at best and as Billy pulls away from Steve it's clear he's debating saying something, but decides better of it.

Billy wipes the small traces of blood from his lips, shifting Steve's limp form to lay back against the couch back. Eddie flinches when he stands up and (Y/N) puts his hand on the metalhead's knee, giving it a reassuring squeeze. Billy eyes the action but says nothing as heads out of the room.

He almost wants to protest when (Y/N) switches to sit beside Steve on his couch, pulling his loose body against them as he speaks softly. "This is normal," he brushes Steve's hair back. "We think Billy has some kind of...thing in his bite to relieve the pain and coax his meals to be more compliant." Eddie grimaces at his friend referring to himself as a meal.

He nearly jumps out of his seat when Billy sits down beside him, having magically appeared out of nowhere. The latter seems unbothered by his reaction, sliding a toastie across the coffee table. (Y/N) thanks him with a soft smile "you don't have to be so on edge, Eddie" he talks as he coaxes Steve to eat the food Billy had made him. "Billy won't need to feed till next week." It's an attempt at reassuring him. "We have a schedule that works for us, so I don't get too worn out." It's then that it hits him. It's not Steve and (Y/N) feeding Billy, just (Y/N). Steve is simply a one off.

Pushing the new knowledge aside he finally gets the courage to ask a question. "What did you mean by I smelt good?" He eyes the vampire cautiously. The blonde doesn't seem bothered by the look, leaning back on the couch with his arm resting over the back. Completely at ease. "Some blood just tastes better than others and you..." he shoots Eddie a grin as he looks the metalhead up and down "smell delicious." If he was trying to unnerve the human then it's working.

"Billy quit freaking him out" (Y/N) scolds, shooting him a sharp glare. "So you're not going to bite me?" Eddie asks tentatively. "No, unless you're offering?" He grins and Eddie leans further into the armrest, eyes wide and freaked out only for Billy to throw his head back and cackle at his reaction. He gets scolded by (Y/N) once more, the jock lobbing a pillow at the vampire's head for good measure.

The room settles down after that with (Y/N) managing to convince Steve into finishing most of his toastie. Billy's eyes stay glued to the duo under an almost protective gaze, that is till he feels eyes boring into the side of his own head. "Can I help you?" He asks, turning his head to face Eddie and smirking when the metalhead jumps. "Sorry, you just don't look as vampiric as I would've expected" he rushes out.

The blonde grins, making a show of running his tongue along the large fangs that hadn't been there before. "Sorry I'm not as ghoulish as you'd hoped for" to which Eddie sputters. "Billy don't taunt him, he's not used to you yet" (Y/N) cuts in and to Eddie's suprise Billy backs off. He moves over to the other two humans, taking Steve into his arms. He holds the former king bridal style as he lets (Y/N) know he'll take the teen to bed.

Billy heads upstairs, holding Steve close to his chest as he climbs them. "Should we really leave Steve alone with him?" He asks once the blonde is out of sight. "Billy isn't going to hurt him, they're friends...of sorts" (Y/N) reasures.

"How long has he been feeding on you?" Eddie asks after a moment. "About ten months ish" he explains "a couple of months, about mine I think" he shrugs sitting back with a soft smile as Eddie moves to sit beside him "any other questions?"

There are so many thoughts and feelings

I really despise the idea that fans expressing criticism (constructive, and not harassment, which was out there, too) is openly called whining.

I always go back to the old quote by Elvis Presley (who had his own issues, as do we all) I heard years back; "The fans can have my shirt, they put it on my back."

There needs to be a healthy amount of respect on both sides. Both. I don't want NR's or anyone's shirt, but as a tv watcher I am passionate, dedicated and therefore also critical. I want to say my shit.

I accept many Deus ex machinas because that's the name of the game. I can accept that the biggest horde we have seen in the show was destroyed by a fiery explosion in five minutes without any proper explanation or set up of where and how they were able to get all the stuff they needed and get it all in place etc but I cannot accept them making a one year later scene where people are hardly recognizable as themselves.

Don't call it whining when I'm calling you out in your lapse in quality, and how you (=everyone involved) have let the integrity and inner logic of your own show and characters disintegrate, to concentrate on the franchise and the many upcoming spinoffs.

Don't think I'm up for the hype of a "f*cking epic show", when you couldn't finish this one properly. (I'm also looking at you, Game of Thrones.)

I respect NR as an actor and he has made Daryl come alive for 12 years. And that is why this hurts. I am not saying this is all his fault of course, but for awhile now he has not been helping and has become a part of the problem.

We are his fans too, though our Daryl was never the macho lone wolf they're most likely going to turn him into.

It's a tough day.

Hi! I have enjoyed some of those western movies you listed, but many of them have eluded me. I'm writing a modern AU and I figured we could help each other out! I get info and you get to talk about your favs 😁 So aside from the Clint Eastwood classics, are there any on the list you'd think a southern, macho soldier guy born in '66 and who is also really into western would count among his favorites? Which one would touch a person who doesn't know how to live out his emotions, but western movies would kinda sorta give him an outlet? Which one has the best villain, which one has the best hero?

Oh my gosh hi!! Sorry for the late reply, but Thanks for the question (and thank you for letting me talk about westerns!) 😁😁😁

for movies, I'd say some of the best to think of are definitely:

-Once Upon a Time in the West, I think Frank is an excellent villain while Harmonica and Cheyenne are, definitely not heroes, but important in their own right and convey a sense of justice while not exactly being 'good guys.' The soundtrack is also excellent as well and also helps set the mood for the scenes, whether it be an intense scene or one with faint hope.

-Shane, it's such an amazing film and I think (from what i understand of how you described the character you're talking about) could relate somewhat, he's an enigmatic and closed off figure in the Starrett's life and you never actually find out what his past is nor where he goes once he leaves, but you can tell that he cares for the family-- hence being part of the reason why he decides to go after Ryker, but you can tell that somewhere in his somewhat grey morals that there's a good and honorable man in him

-The Magnificent Seven, the original movie (despite being a remake of the seven samurai) is one of the best stories ive seen played out in a western. There's a lot left up to interpretation about the seven, but theyre all heroes in their own right because even though they all took a job that didnt even pay well, they were willing to risk their lives to protect a town that none of them have an attachment to. Calvera isn't the strongest antagonist I've seen, but he plays his part well and is able to give the seven a reason to fight.

-Django, the og italian one, is interesting. I don't have much to say, it's been awhile since I've seen it, but it could have something of use. But, Django himself is a curious character, we know virtually nothing about the man, but it's clear that he has a mission and will use his resources to follow through until he achieves his goal.

-Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, I love this movie. Despite the main characters technically being the bad guys, you can't help but find yourself hoping for them to succeed. The dynamic between the two is fantastic, Sundance being the quiet one willing to do what needs to be done while Butch is the ideas man. It's really interesting seeing how your perception of them is skewed once you remember that they're not good people, but understand and find yourself in the characters?

I'm really hoping this helps you out somewhat and wasn't tooooo confusing? (If you need me to elaborate on anything just shoot me another message and ill try and clarify anything!!)

Good luck on your writing ventures! Have a great day 😊

Freddy Fenrir SFW alphabet

Because im feeling nice

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

Hes very touchy and loud about his affection, he gives bone crushing hugs, back pats and if you're smaller than him he likes lifting you and ruffling your hair. He loves bragging and pointing out how pretty and amazing his s/o is

B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

Hes very loyal and trustworthy with friends but even with them hes a magnet for problems. He's reckless and adventure seeking which often leads to him and those around him into trouble but he would fight nail and tooth for his friends.

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

He's very touchy as i said earlier, while he tries to limit his PDA to keep up his macho persona but in private hes like a PYTHON, he wants to hold you for hours and hours and while he prefer to big spoin he loves getting pampered too. Just dont tell anyone

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

He moves too fast, when you start dating, to him, its like you two are already married. He's surprisingly self-sufficient, he can cook and clean but he's rarely home because of his job as a Shadow Guard. Its probably for the best because he sheds fur and it can get in the food

E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

He would never want to, but if he realizes being with him puts you in danger he would he will claim he will protect you until he realizes HE is the danger and he would start behaving aggressive and mean to you so YOU leave HIM

F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

He's extremely devoted and loyal, again, in his mind you two are already married and its like he's in a constant honeymoon mindset. He moves too fast so you have to sit him down and tell him if it makes uncomfortable

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

He's trying okay? He has an amazing gentlemen when handling stuff he likes but he still has trouble controlling his strength and his size alone can be troublesome. He would rather die than to hurt you so he tries very best to touch as delicately as possible

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

His hugs are BONECRUSHING and he likes hugging you often. Proceed with caution

I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)

While he moves too fast in the relationship it would take him awhile to actually say the L word. He doesn't want to seem weak in anyway and until he finally says it he expresses it by praising everything you do. But when he DOES say it he's at his softest and it means he trusts you completely

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

VERY jealous and possesive over you, theres moments where he's more like your bodyguard than your boyfriend. You can interact with others but if he feels like something's wring he comes over and puts his arms around your waist and holds you while giving a death stare to that person talking with you. In the worst case he will try to fight them

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

Having a snout makes kissing very complicated. He cant kiss like humans do and he doesn't like licking you so he presses his snout against you and likes to nibble on you

L = Little ones (How are they around children?)

Kind of shocking but hes actually good with kids but he doesn't intend to. Children think a shade-wearing werewolf is very cool and when they express it he gets all warmed up and finds it funny how kids want to climb him. This one is a secret of his but he would LOVE to have kids of his own(warning he would totally dress them up like him so they match)

M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)

He wakes up early to do his beauty routine and usually doesnt wake you up but if you have to wake up early too he will do things like climbing on top of you, shaking you and straight up pulling you out of bed.

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

He's more active at night and given he spends so much time at the Decree he likes to use night-time to catch up with you.

O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)

It actually takes him awhile to truly open up but he does unknowingly reveal things about him here and there

P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)

He has some serious anger problems, very hot headed but if you tell him you dont like it he will try to tone it down for you, which terrifies everyone that knows him

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

Hes shockingly very into details. He tries to learn and remember as much as possible about you. He likes hearing you talk and when you show interest in a certain topic he investigates about so he can talk more with you and he gets mad when people get your orders wrong even if you havent noticed yet

R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)

When you still weren't dating he offered to take you home whenever you were out at night. The way you two would chat and joke around in the moonlight was something very sweet and after you relationship is already established he likes going out with you at night

S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)

Everyone is kind of worried about how you seem to be the only creature Freddy doesn't want to hurt. He touches you with a lot of care and he likes knowing you're okay so if he can't watch over you he has his lackeys watch over you for him, if someone harms you he definitely gets involved and he leaves the aggresor UNRECOGNIZABLE

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

He wants to be the best partner you could ever have, he pays for everything and tries to get you the most expensive gifts and he takes you to the fanciest places but if you dont like those kind of things he tries to get what you DO like, he also doesn't like letting all the tasks to you, he prefers to do the toughest ones so you are okay and also because he wants to show off how strong he is

U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)

Oh boy, listen. He has plenty of pros but his CONS are certainly something. For starters he loves violence and fighting, he would never harm you but he would try to fight everyone that comes near you, he leaves fur everywhere, he bites stuff, he's very loud, very impulsive and he thinks its funny to make you mad. And thats without mentioning the fact that he's pretty much an extremely dangerous t3rrorist but hey hes fluffy so its okay👍

V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

A lot. He cares a lot. He has a morning routine for his fur which can take hours and spends thousands on products, he has to get custom made EVERYTHING because of his anatomy being so rare. (His obsession with looking good could come from a need to feel less of a monster)

W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

Yes. He has a mate like mentality and just like real wolves who mate for LIFE when he isnt with you he feels like something is missing and he would actually be more efficient in missions because the sooner hes done with it the sooner he can go back to you. The only one who suffers more than him about your time apart is Leon who has to deal with Freddy non stop whining about how much he misses you

X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)

His collar was specially made for him by the Shadow Decree and it limits his actual strenght. This measure was taken because he kept destroying the installations and harming co-workers. He only accepted to wear it because it looks cool

Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)

He hates negative and unconfident people, people who are always like "i cant do it", he doesnt like cowards and overall its a total deal breaker for him if they treat him like a dog or an animal in general or if they minimize him and if they try to control him

Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)

He sleeps like a log and he likes hooding onto something when he sleep and its usually you the one trapped in his arms. At least he doesnt snore but he does groan in his sleep

*Slight, but mainly unimportant spoilers*

As some may recall, I defended the outlaws webtoon for a number of reasons, and some of those I still keep to.

But I officially do not like their characterization of adult Jason. I held out for awhile because it was a new series, just starting to get it's footing. For alot of stuff that's still the case.

Now I think there's been enough dialogue to make an assessment.

I think that Jason would be kinda macho(in a must not show weakness because of trauma way, which can be toxic but I think different kind than is shown)- but not really in the slightly toxic way it's being portrayed.

I also don't like how this Jason is resistance to rolling with life's punches, that's my favorite thing about Jason really.

He serves a knuckle sandwich right back.

He is stubborn in a way he keeps repeating mistakes that I personally don't see him making, and I cannot for the life of me think of why he would care about a random person on the internet saying he has lice, then spending forever on a comeback.

These are all things that they may be planning on doing an ark for, and I will still be reading it(I also love the art).

But mostly because this is officially a different Jason.

And this Jason I don't see Artemis falling for.

At least Bizarro is still sweet.
