Dude- KC didn't have to bring you back in the first place, and you're smart enough to understand why we need to be careful about keeping you away from the others for now. Chill. And yes, him and Moon switch who has control with a daily schedule, with plans to eventually separate into different bodies.

-Magic Penguin

Kill Code: I have a deal with Moon where he is out during the day and I am allowed free reign at night. He is under the impression that I have been working to separate us. That is not entirely untrue-

Eclipse: *scoffs* Oh, I see. I'm your pity project. That or you're going to try to 'turn me against' them. Joke's on you, I hate them. I don't care about anyone. And if you think I'm going to grovel at your feet just because you brought me back, think again.

Kill Code: *growls* Eclipse.

Eclipse: Aw, big scawy Kill Code's mad! Oh no! Whatever will I do? *sneers*

Kill Code: *growls again* I will leave you. I must be upstairs before it is Moon's turn to take control. I will be back this evening. *stands up*

//There's a flash of something in Eclipse's eyes before it's replaced by anger again. Fear? Regret? It's gone just as fast.//

Hey, Tira!! Anon that suggested Latina! Reader here. First of all, are you doing good? Remember to drink water, okay?

Secondly, for a neglected! Reader plot,(or maybe a one-shot, whatever you feel like writing) what do you think about magical girl! Reader? Like, there's this pink (or any other color) teenage girl/boy in gotham that fights some type of not really scary monster (maybe those from precure, as they don't look that frightening) with glitter and hearts and cute stuff and then the batfam is just flabbergasted because why?? Are they?? So cute?? And they become yandere because they just think reader is so so adorable and innocent

And maybe gotham villains have a soft spot for reader becuase they saved them for the monster thingys

And now reader has to deal with all the most powerful entities in gotham being obsessed over them

And IF it is a neglected! Reader they have to deal with the pain of being adored by the batfam as their magical girl persona, but not as their real self

OR MAYBE!! Star butterfly! Reader (i could elaborate if you want!)

Sorry for the long ask and any writing mistakes, and again, really self indulgent because I love love love magical girls!!

Hi! I love hearing from you again!!! I'm doing good, I just watched the Deadpool and Wolverine movie and it's taken a grip on me 😩

I love that idea for the plot! I was hoping to do a magical girl reader because my FYP on both Tiktok AND Tumblr has been magical girl batfam and I just finished watching Sailor Moon last night.

I'd love to incorporate that into the plot (as well as make a separate one-shot of it in a different instance).

I for sure think that the Batfam would have the mindset of "oh, they're dressed up in cute, bright colours and is fighting non-frightening monsters. That must mean they're an innocent teen playing dress up and doesn't actually know the truth about the real world"

Whether it's true or not is up to you to decide for now but I personally think that Reader would be in the middle, aware of the world around them but oblivious to how it affects themselves - or completely different then that, Reader would be completely aware of the world and struggles in real life but fights as a magical girl + with a smile on her face so she can give others hope.

For the villains I think for sure that the ones who have a proper soft spot (eg. Wouldn't get Reader involved in crimes, would work to protect Reader) would be Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Riddler, Two-Face and Penguin.

For the villains that will let Reader get into trouble so they can save them I think it would be Bane, Catwoman, Clayface and Killer Croc. (Possibly Mad Hatter).

For the villains who would purposefully incorporate Reader into their schemes I think the main ones would be Joker, Hugo Strange and Scarecrow (for two different reasons however).

For Joker he'd see it more so as a bonding experience, a way to "hang out" and "catch up". Even if the Reader is held hostage, in the middle of the battle field, etc.

For Scarecrow I think it would come moreso from a sense of morbid curiosity. How far will Reader go to help people? How does their mind work? How will they react to Fear Gas? What is their fear?

I'd definitely think Harley would love the outfit and Mad Hatter would start to think of you as Alice with your colourful get-up.

If we're talking Batman villains who aren't in Gotham (Talia, Ra, Deadshot, Deathstroke) then I feel it would be a different kind of attachment.

It would be more like "what is this colourful child doing in such a dark place?" (Even if you are already in your adult years).

Talia and Ra would see Reader as someone to train, Reader has great strength to wield and if Talia/Ra can train them then Reader will be a great asset.

The difference between the two would be that Talia grows attached in a nurturing way while Ra grows attached in a condescending way.

Eg.

Talia would think of Reader as a child for her to protect

Ra would think of Reader as a lamb that will be slaughtered without him.

Deadshot has his own kid, he doesn't care much for another until seeing Reader hurt/sad. Reader would be a substitute for Deadshot's daughter while she's with her mother.

Deathstroke, I really don't like him (sorry if you do, he just makes me feel icky), but I feel he'd have a mix between Talia's headspace and Ra's headspace.

"Reader can't survive without me guiding them. Reader needs a father to help them grow" it doesn't matter if you have a dad, he won't compare to Deathstroke. If it's such a big deal for Reader Deathstroke will just remove Reader's father from the picture.

I'd love for you to elaborate on Star Butterfly!

Dw about long requests, I literally squealed when I saw it!!

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ anon request: link

Uh oh! I'm so sorry! Could I request this with Freminet, Lyney, and Thoma instead?

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ No worries! And I'm happy you decided to request it with different characters! I hope you'll like it despite how short it is for some!

Also, no favoritism here, it was just a longer explanation of mine with one penguin boy

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ fluff

✧ Thoma definitely wound your shyness cute, I mean... how could he not when you're just hiding behind him like that?

✧ he didn't mind the fact you both seemed like 2 opposites, in fact he liked your dynamic!

✧ he honestly just liked the feeling of helping you just by being around you

✧ but when he realized you're not entirely what you seemed to be... he was most definitely surprised

✧ out of all situations, he didn't expect him getting insulted to anger you so much

✧ so when he first saw how angry you are, he immidietly thinked of an excuse and dragged you away as he tried calming you down

"Let's calm down, shall we? It was just small remark, I'm already over it! There's no need to be upset at anyone now."

✧ how could you not stand your guard but get so mad when someone insulted him?

✧ he'd love to see how you care about him but he'd really prefer if you coule he less... brutal with the words

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

@bleachtheidiot - come get your perfect malewife!

✧ Lyney absolutely loved using your shyness to bring that little red dust to your cheeks

✧ be it gifts, magic tricks, compliments, flirting... anything that worked! He could even do so in public for all he cared

✧ it was only natural for him to gain some attention and some mean remarks from time to time but he was honestly used to it! Tho... you weren't...

✧ when he first saw how angry you got, he had to admit, he enjoyed the show for first 3 seconds

✧ let's be honest, he'd pay back that person himself but if you want to have the pleasure of doing that, who is he to refuse you that?

✧ but he doesn't want you standing in court before he blinks so soon enough, he's right next to you, giving you a hug

"Now, now mon cherie... we're supposed to head to cafe for our date! Not fight with my crowd."

✧ his plan is to simply make an excuse, but if he distracts you too, it's even better!

✧ he won't admit to it but he definitely liked the feeling of being protected by you like that

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

@bleachtheidiot - come get your charming magician~

✧ both you and Freminet were just cute shy duo and no one could change that

✧ despite you two sharing trait that shouldn't go with each other, you were pretty comfortable in each other's company

✧ he was sometimes getting bothered by the comments towards him but he never really spoke out loud about it, just keeping to himself and moving on

✧ he'd only drop few lines when someone would try to say something bad about you and it seemed to be the case with you as well but... more violent it seems verbally of course

✧ when he first heard how loud you could yell and what insults you can think off, even he himself hot a bit startled at first

✧ of course she was quick to realize that everyone was staring so he immidietly put a hand on your shoulder, trying his best to calm you down

"Y/N... love... let's maybe just drop this topic and go somewhere else?"

✧ he's not even trying to hide he's doing his best to pull you away so you won't need to face consequences later

✧ later when you're alone, he sees the look on your face, telling him how disappointed you are so he quickly makes sure you know how thankful he is for your concern and protective nature towards him

✧ though let it not me invite for you to do that again, he'd still be worried that you might be the one ending hurt if you continue

[knickknacksandallthat]

I was watching hockey the other day and the announcers were talking about how on the penguins, there are three player who are setting the record for the longest tenure as teammates. they've been playing together for 18 years, i'm sure you can see where my brain went

Anon, yessss!! Omg I can literally just see the interview now:

(Jean, Jeremy, and Kevin sitting in a room with an interviewer)

INTERVIEWER: Well, thanks for sitting down with me, guys! And listen, a few of us were just talking about this - the three of you have been together on the same team for around 10 years now, right?

JEREMY: *smiling* Yep!

JEAN: If you say so.

INTERVIEWER: Wow, that's quite the tenure! Did you know, in fact, that you three are close to setting a record within the league?

KEVIN: What record?

INTERVIEWER: Most consecutive years together on a team.

JEAN: *raises eyebrow* they have records for this?

KEVIN: Who currently holds it?

INTERVIEWER: uh...well I think it's technically Neil Josten and Andrew Minyard with the Dragons.

JEREMY: Awww, good for them!

JEAN: *snorts*

INTERVIEWER: *clears throat* well, in any case, uh...that's quite the achievement, you know? Tell us - what's your secret? What's the magic between you three?

JEREMY: *still smiling* hmm, I wonder.

KEVIN: Practice, hard work, and experience.

INTERVIEWER: Well, I'm sure the time you train together accounts for a lot, but...there's nothing...else you'd say helps?

JEAN: Like?

INTERVIEWER: Um, like...well, you know...like friendship?

JEAN: *blinking* Friendship.

INTERVIEWER: Yeah, man...I mean, after all this time, I would think the three of you have grown so close that you'd be more like bros, you know?

JEAN: *frowning now* Bros.

JEREMY: *biting lip silently against grin* Ohhhh, right. Got it. Yeah man, for sure. Bros.

INTERVIEWER: Exactly! Homies, man.

KEVIN: *tone dripping with derision* Homies.

INTERVIEWER: Three dudes with the most sacred of all bonds - sports.

JEREMY: *now shaking with repressed laughter* Oh, for sure, my dude. Homies. Brotherly bonding. Soooooo hetero. The most.

(Kevin turns to scowl at Jeremy.)

INTERVIEWER: You know, it actually kind of surprised many of us that you didn't end up on a team with Neil and Andrew, Kevin. If anyone, those two are who many of us would have thought you'd be setting this record with.

JEREMY: Oh my god. *doubles over laughing*

JEAN: *smirking* Yes, tell us, Kevin. Why aren't you on a team with Neil and Andrew? Accomplishing this sacred connection of brotherly bonding?

KEVIN: *pinches bridge of nose with fingers before sighing* Let's just say being on the same team with them at the Olympics is more than enough.

KEVIN: *grumbles under breath* The damn pair of menaces.

-------------------

INTERVIEWER: Josten and Minyard, we were just out talking to your rivals on the West Coast last week - Jeremy Knox, Jean Moreau, and your former PSU teammate, Kevin Day, from the Warriors.

*Both stare silently at him*

INTERVIEWER: *coughs* Right, so, we were just saying how that trio is coming up on your record for teammates with the most time spent together on one team.

NEIL: And? What's your point?

INTERVIEWER: *loosens tie* oh, well, there was a little curiosity, I guess, around why Kevin chose that team instead of coming to play for the Dragons - with the two of you, I mean, his former teammates. Um...do you know why that is?

NEIL: Because Andrew would probably stab him.

INTERVIEWER: I...what?

NEIL: *waving hand back and forth* Yeah, I'd probably give it two weeks at most.

INTERVIEWER: ...

NEIL: See, Kevin would whine and nag, and Andrew would get pissed but he promised Wymack he wouldn't, no matter how much Kevin annoys him. So...yeah. It's probably better that they both stay on opposite ends of the country.

INTERVIEWER: ...

ANDREW: *pulling lollipop out of mouth* Never let a sad, forty-something year old man convince you to promise shit.

Imma need an in-depth breakdown of Puff please! And I’m not being sarcastic either. Puff pre-dates my time in the outlander fandom.

Regards,

Your curious anon.

Dear Puffy Curious Anon,

If my cantankerous boss would have summoned me at 03:03 pm EEST (when your request landed in my inbox), just to tell me "Imma need an in-depth breakdown of the Greek trade unions' position on the current critical understaffing of the HoReCa sector", I would have politely answered "yes, ma'am, when is the deadline". I would have then turned on my heels, rolled my eyes, sworn like a drunk sailor under my breath (fuck my life comes to mind, pardon my French) and quickly be done with it.

You, bless your Anon heart, wrote: "Imma need an in-depth breakdown of Puff, please". Wee difference, Curious Anon: you are not my cantankerous boss. That being said, since the question has been asked by several people in the comment threads of the day's posts, I am gonna give you my two cents on Queen Pufflander, even if you've been around before I even knew this weird place existed. And hopefully put to rest this nonsense forever (wishful thinking, doubt it will happen).

Once upon a time, when S&C's bantering was the plat du jour on Twitter and this fandom a considerably less toxic place, Puff the Magic Dragon of the US East Coast was one of the Queen Bees of Shipperville. Her blog was witty and no-nonsense (if a tad verbose) and, as *urv, she quickly earned her fair share of side performers: Stella and Deep Throat (SOURCES) or the tarot reader(s) immediately come to mind. People loved Puff and that is only fair, to be honest: I bet the farm she was great fun. Little by little, information traded in DMs started to pile up in her famed Vault, from which she was generously sharing, from time to time, sibylline rants ("maybe they did or maybe they didn't, but don't worry, something happened and all shall soon be revealed"). I can critique that forever and a day and tell you that all this sent people's expectations up the roof and beyond, of course. But, again: I was not here. It is unfairly easy to judge all these things with a historian's eye, and people who lived to tell the tale are far more entitled than me to comment their fandom experience, circa 2015.

When the whole Shatner/Watchtower baliverne started (early 2016, if memory serves) things ugly escalated and rather quickly so. People started jumping ship. With McSideburns already in the house (EIFF comes to mind and a certain poignant S&C penguin picture, too), enter Flukenzie Floozy. Thus, after IFH, Puffy decided to pack her crystal ball & tent and move to greener pastures on Wordpress. There, she held court with a keen eye for the Byzantine politicking of this fandom, not unlike what Perfidious Albion did with regard to the Thirteen Rebelling Colonies, after that Boston Tea Party. Her main moments of intersection with the rest of the shipper community are Covfefe Pics (of course) and Remarkable Week-end (of course). With regard to Covfefe, she quickly cried wolf, but by the time Remarkable Week-end happened, she pulled off a mighty witty breakdown of The Nuptial Charade of the Century. Blaze of glory was Quarantein Ha-wa-wee (of course), when she blamed S for all the world's evils and then some more. After that, she concentrated on her Neverending Feud with *urv (a Private Investigator was, at some point, hired and paid for via crowdfunding), which somehow managed to end (nevertheless) with a Report she might or might not have sent to S, "for further consideration".

As all good prophets, Puffy finally went into Occultation circa 2021, not without warning us that she was torn between Gay Sam & SamCait intellectual traditions, with a wee penchant for the first (reason why I completely ditched her peddling, because IYKYK).

I can understand why people might think I could be Puffy. I am, however, very sure about my own identity, whereabouts and creed: to state the opposite would really, really be mental. I fully assumed my responsibility and went ahead to actually prove you, this morning, I wasn't. Reading her rants was useful, but also taxing. I doubt Stella and Deep Throat were anything else but narrative helpers in a sophisticated Greimas actantial model. Something I would never do, for example: I am confident enough not to need any crutches. And I am very, very sorry for this word vomit: it should come, perhaps, as solace its length could never compete with Puff's storytelling marathons.

To wash my sins (not really: because I really love that picture), here's S,C, a penguin and a cakebox (?), at EIFF 2015. This is, you can be certain, the purest thing on this page, Anon:

[legobiwan]

do you have any thoughts on powerups/how the bros use them?

You have no idea what you have just unleashed, anon. :D I am super into world-building and lore when it comes to Mario stuff, so here's a random list of ideas that may or may not bear fruit for anyone who reads this. (Also, part of this is me sketching out concepts for solus creatura, so I thank my followers in advance for their patience here).

The vegetable/fruit/foliage powerups are naturally occurring. The Mushroom Kingdom has the most fertile conditions for these plants to grow, although other kingdoms have done a decent enough job of genetically engineering their own powerup plants.

This makes the powerups an integral part of the Mushroom Kingdom economy, and one of the reasons they're able to survive so long without any real standing army or defense system outside of Mario and Luigi. It's also one of the reasons they get invaded so often.

The Darklands, centuries before Bowser's reign, used to also cultivate powerups. They were overfarmed by a corrupt agricultural council, however, and in combination with a once-in-a-lifetime drought, the vast majority of their land and crop was ruined.

Luckily for the Darklands, their native species is capable of fire and they still retain a strong tradition of magical culture through the Magikoopas (although this was briefly wiped out during Bowser's father's reign, as he thought the Magikoopas were planning a coup. They, in fact, were, but for good reasons).

Now, the Mushroom Kingdom is wary of magic, due their own history and complicated relationship with the Darklands (this may be in part linked to an old civil war that caused the split between the Mushroom Kingdom and the Darklands). Their species is also just not that magically adept (something having to do with Toad physiognomy?) The powerups are a decent compromise - they afford magic-like abilities without rendering their user permanently superpowered.

There was some contention in the royal court when Mario and Luigi first arrived in terms of allowing them access to the powerups. Ultimately, it was decided the safety of the kingdom would supersede any worries about abuse of power. (This being said, Peach had to argue long and hard for this).

Mario and Luigi receive a monthly allotment of powerups and if they find any "in the wild," they're supposed to record each instance. Neither brother bothers with this and every month they get a nasty letter from Porcina in accounting, which has led to a years-long feud between her and Mario. Luigi has learned the better way to circumvent the system is bribery by brownie. It usually, although not always, works.

The non-vegetative powerups are created in Mushroom Kingdom labs. Because the Mushroom Kingdom is like a Times Square Station for warp-pipe travel, the dimensional crossroads makes it easier to cross-pollinate powerups with characteristics of other species and lands (cats, penguins, etc.)

Back in the day, E. Gadd was involved with a lot of this research, but ultimately left to pursue his own interests in the paranormal. It's also rumored that he and the governing scientific committee at the time had a spat about the limits of experimental ethics.

When Mario and Luigi are first introduced to the powerups, they think this is the coolest thing in the world. They have powers, which was an impossibility back in New York.

It takes them a while to get the hang of using the powerups. Mario set fire to a Mushroom Kingdom stable one time. Luigi crash landed into someone's wedding as a kitsune. The citizens, by and large, were relatively forgiving of these incidents, although it did make for a wild few days in the press.

At first, Mario and Luigi both love the fireball ability. That is, until the events of Super Paper Mario, after which they go a solid few months without coming NEAR a fireflower. Mario can't help flashback to that terrible moment in Merlon's house while Luigi experiences the oddest phantom pains if he as much holds a fireflower, although he can't say why exactly. (Mario, of course, has no idea Luigi was boxed and bombed twice by Dimentio).

Luigi loves flying and may steal a few extra Tanooki leaves to go out and experiment with aeronautics/aviation concepts in the dead of the night. This, subconsciously, directly influences his Brobot designs in his time as Mr. L.

Mario's favorite powerup is the classic mushroom. Finally, he gets to be as tall or taller than his younger brother.

They both think the Invincibility Star is incredible until they're faced with a situation in which the invincibility wears off at a dangerous moment, which almost turned fatal for Mario. It's a sobering moment, and brothers learn the lesson that no one is invincible forever.

The Mushroom Kingdom allows Mario and Luigi to use the powerups under the assumption that the "magic," as it were, never lasts. What they don't know, however, is that Luigi has a strange penchant for magic, which is why on more than one occasion, the effects of the powerups take longer to wear off on him. (One day, Luigi shows up to meet his brother looking a little...furrier than usual. "You look hairy, bro," Mario says, furrowing his brow. "I'm Italian." Mario rolls his eyes at his brother's quip. "Not that Italian. What, did you forget to shave again?" Luigi just shrugs, not wanting to admit this isn't the first time he's woken up with more hair than he's used to).

They tease each other mercilessly when they are introduced to some of the animalistic powerups. Luigi puts a litter box in his brother's room and buys him a collar with the name tag, "Fluffy." Mario cooks Luigi fish for five days straight after the penguin incident. He also starts singing the "Walk Like a Penguin" jingle every time his brother comes into the room.

Jealousy

Rogues Headcanons request: rogues who are jealous of their crush with another partner. i'm so sorry anon this post got messed up by tumblr so i had to delete it and i've only now found time to rewrite it ;-; 💜 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: threats, posessive/obsessive behaviour, violence, yandere bullshit i guess

penguin

oswald cobblepot isn't the type to wait around for someone

someone who obviously doesn't see a good thing when it's standing in front of them

sure he'll pine for a bit

but anyone who doesn't have the sense to know he's the better choice in any situation is too dumb to be with him

however, for the right person (that person being you...)

he might be known to spend nights in his office, avoiding going home to his empty apartment

because it bothers him that you're not there, sitting beside him

curling up to him in bed, waking up to him in the mornings

all the little things that he's missing out on, that someone else now has

it's enough to drive a respectable businessman to some rather cruel efforts to get what he wants

poison ivy

pam likes to think of herself as "above it all"

she's just green, the hue has nothing to do with jealousy

but the sudden, unprompted, and rather intense development of a mini jungle outside of your apartment?

that has everything to do with jealousy

they can bring you a bouequet of flowers, sure, the decapitated heads of something that was once living trussed up in bows

but only she can build you a botanical garden wherever you please

something that keeps living and growing

just like her intense infatuation with you

and the dead weight your carrying around with you will definitely become handy

since they can be mixed into compost for her gardens

how dramatic can he get? seems like the answer is "very"

although, if he really sat down to think about it

his talents could definitey see him go far here, e.g. his skill in the art of disposal

nothing extravagant or showy, no, this has to be secretive, stealthy, surprising

one quick shot to their forehead from a distance

or a pretend mugging, an oddly precise slash to the neck doing the trick

which method of ridding you of this new love of your life would cause you the least amount of psychological damage?

because he's not keen on the idea of waiting around for you much longer

so you have to get over this current obstacle pretty quickly once they've been dealt with

mr freeze

it's likely been a while since he last latched onto someone emotionally

so there's already a deep connection between you, even if it's one sided, and it's difficult for him to look past it

even knowing that you're with someone else

the thoguht of someone trying to take nora from him when she was there infuriates him

and yet here he is, considering doing the exact same thing

it's different though, because he deserves someone nice to love

he's owed someone to care for and to dote after, and to return the favour to him

he'd definitely opt for a romantic gesture to win you over

something magical, like freezing your idiot partner and scooping you up in his arms

and carrying you off to his lair to keep you isolated for decades in near mint condition

riddler

his proclivity for solving puzzles and knowing the answer to everything has kept him awake every night

why are you with someone else and not with him?

why would you ever choose someone else over him?

absolutely bizarre behaviour BUT you just need someone to show you the error of your ways

someone to teach you, to educate you, so you can make better choices in the future

and of course, he's willing to use force if need be

some of his best lectures have been given with a captive audience

sometimes it really is the only way to get people like you to listen

and perhaps, at the end, he'll offer up a little pop quiz, the kind where if you fail it, your head goes pop

how smart is that new partner of yours anyway, hm?

two face

everything comes down to a choice

you just happened to make the wrong one

now harvey might be willing to respect your choices

he's a reasonable man after all

but two face is not taking this absolutely shocking disregard of his feelings well

it's not even up for the coin to decide

it's rampage time

and no one is safe from his intense violence and rage until he has you in his arms

and if that doesn't work, he can always rely on harvey and his brains

that lawyer talk should come in handy when he's arguing his case for choosing him

harley quinn

ok first of all, rude

she's willing to forget about her true love, mr j, and give you a chance

and you're going to pick someone else

hey! it's not her fault she never got around to asking you out

you should have asked her out! you do the hard work, bub!

anyway, her jealous streak is based in a defense mechanism

you are 100% going to be her worst enemy

it's part of distancing herself from you

and a way to avoid any blame on herself for not being quick enough to snap you up

god forbid she's to blame for her own misfortune

mad hatter

jervis is entirely respectful of your choices

it's not your fault that you didn't see him, or notice his affections

and it's not really his fault that he wasn't brave enough to say anything before it was too late

it's just that the universe has decided that you don't quite get your happy ever after yet

every fairytale story requires a bit of drama

a plot twist, to make the sweet, perfect ending more satisfying

he has absolutely no doubt that you'll find your way to him

without the need for any dubious tea or fashionable hats that might alter your beahviour

and then it'll all be the way it should be, you with him

in wonderland together forever

scarecrow

that's fine.

no really, make your own choices, make the wrong choices

the fear of losing you is fascinating and he's fine to hold onto that

but he will be getting revenge, just for the fun of it

see how well your new flame protects you when you wake up from one of jonathan's nightmares

especially when those nightmares feature your new partner

tormenting you, haunting you, terrifying you

oh, wouldn't you like to find safety in jonathan's arms?

well, perhaps he might find the kindness in him to allow that

but you'll have to beg, and suffer sufficiently, first

bane

ok so let's face it no one is arguing with bane or fighting him for your affections

but he's just such a big soft lug

if he saw you, knowing you were happy

even if that meant you were happier with someone other than him

he absolutely would do nothing to disrupt that

his jealousy would be well contained, never cruel or mean-spirited

he just knows that he would love the opportunity to show you what you're missing

the minute he suspects you're unhappy though, he is back on his simping bullshit with you, not brave enough to just ask you out

and you better hope he never gets the idea that your partner is being anything less than wonderful to you

or he'll crush them with one hand

I just want a factually accurate, incredibly detailed Palmer station in winter in Antarctica fic where Lilith and Beatrice are no nonsense researchers and Camila and Ava and all nonsense maintenance/mechanics people with incredibly well written smut for both ships to magically appear out of thin air. C’mon, universe, help me out…

okay okay okay okay but listen beatrice is there to study heliophysics for nasa. she’s as usual a fucking science nerd supreme & if you ask her about the heliopause or voyager 1 well i hope you brought snacks because she’s not remotely normal about solar wind fizzling out against interstellar wind & the small influence (cosmologically) of the brightest thing we know.

ava is the station mechanic & also a pilot & a professional alpinist. big fan of penguins. her & bea meet when Ava slides off the roof of the bio-building & ends up dangling upside-down in her harness waving to a flummoxed bea through the window.

lilith is a marine biologist and glaciologist & cam is part of her dive-team. they’re weird and soft and lilith is like a stork in a lab coat when cam is around (clumsy) but she’s also… constantly in a wet suit or in a lara croft-type fit because biologists are Like That so cam is playing it cool but like… wants to fuck this strange woman who gets emo over the melting ice caps.

help anon you’re testing my whisker-thin resolve to not start any more aus

can i request little!mina getting an ear infection so she has to use drops to treat her infection but she thinks that it'll hurt so she cries when cg!jeonghyo says they have to use it so she gets better but she just cries and they calm her down by singing her favorite song while using the drops

hiya anon :) yes! mina would be so scared :(( but jeongyeon & jihyo are such caring & gentle mamas & they'd make sure to treat their baby extra gentle

ear infection

|| little!mina, cg!jeongyeon, cg!jihyo ||

The girls made sure they didn’t get sick often. If they did, they made sure to handle it quietly. With the world tour, packed schedules, and barely any time to rest, it was inevitable that someone was going to get sick at least once.

Mina didn’t expect to get sick while they were on tour and she most definitely didn’t expect to get sick when they were taking one of their rare breaks. When she went to the doctor because her ear hurt and she couldn’t hear well, she was very upset to find out she had an ear infection.

An ear infection was the last thing she needed since her ears were one of the many parts of her body she used for her job. Not to mention they hurt and the only way to get rid of it was with time and ear drops.

Mina was sitting on the couch watching TV with her penguin stuffy. Her ear hurt but the TV was distracting her from the pain. She didn’t notice her mamas walk in until they were blocking the TV.

With a small whine, Mina looked up at her mamas, upset that they were blocking her show. “Wan’ watch TV.” Mina huffed, laying her face down in the couch. She usually wasn’t so fussy, but she didn’t feel good so it was harder for her to control her feelings.

Jeongyeon and Jihyo could sense their baby’s frustration and see how tired she was from her ear hurting. They sat down on either side of her and gently reached out to stroke her hair.

“How you feeling, sweet pea?” Jihyo leaned down to kiss Mina’s cheek. She earned a small hum of appreciation from the little but frowned when she saw the pained expression on her face.

Mina simply pointed to her ear and said, “Ouchie.” They knew Mina’s ear infection was painful and they knew they that she just wanted to be better again.

“Do you want mommy and I to help you, baby?” Jeongyeon asked, here voice soft as her hand closed around something small in her pocket.

Mina gave a small nod and leaned back into the couch. Maybe her mamas could do something magical and make her ear infection just go away.

Jeongyeon nodded and pulled the object out of her pocket, revealing a small bottle of ear drops. Mina looked at her mama and tilted her head, unsure of what she was holding. “What dat?”

“They’re ear drops, sweet pea. They make your ear not feel all icky.” Jihyo brushed Mina’s hair behind her ear and scooted a little closer to her.

Mina nodded, still not sure what that meant. Maybe that was the magic that was going to make her feel all better.

“Can you tilt your head for me, angel?” Jeongyeon made sure to keep her voice calm as she unscrewed the cap on the ear drops. She leaned over the little’s ear and held the drops up.

Jeongyeon accidentally missed, one drop falling on the outer shell of Mina’s ear. The second the cold liquid touched her skin, Mina panicked. She didn’t know that water was going to go in her ear.

Quickly, Mina scrambled off the couch and ran into her bedroom. She shut the door and crawled under the covers, holding her penguin stuffy tight to her chest.

When Mina’s mamas came into town trying to with the drops again, she started to cry. She didn’t want water in her ear. She didn’t want it to hurt more. “No! Mina hurt!”

Jihyo gently pulls Mina’s covers down and picks the little up, cradling her in her arms. “It’s not going to hurt, sweet pea. I promise. It’s just a little cold for a few seconds and then you’ll feel so much better.”

Mina wasn’t convinced. She was torn between wanting her mama to hold her and not wanting to be tricked into more of the drops. She buried her face onto her mommy’s chest, small sobs leaving her.

Jeongyeon and Jihyo felt their hearts break. They knew the drops were the only way for Mina’s ear infection to get better, but the last thing they wanted to do was scare the poor little.

Jeongyeon reached a hand out and gently rubbed small circles into Mina’s back. They sat there quietly for a few minutes before they tried again.

“Why don’t we sing your favorite song while we do it, angel? That way you won’t be as focused on the drops.” Jeongyeon kept gently rubbing Mina’s back, feeling a small bit of success when she turned her face to look up at her.

Mina sniffled, wiping her tears with the back of her hand. She still really didn’t want the drops, but she loved when her mamas sang to her. It made everything better.

Hesitantly, Mina nodded. She still had a few tears in the corners of her eyes threatening to spill, but Jihyo held her hand, squeezing it a few times to let her know she was okay.

Jihyo started to hum a little, rocking her baby back and forth a little to calm her down a little more.

“Well, can’t you see that it’s just raining? Ain’t no need to go outside.” Jeongyeon started to sing Banana Pancakes and almost immediately Mina’s body started to relax. It never failed to make her baby happy.

As they kept singing, Mina’s body relaxed more. Jeongyeon gently tilted Mina’s head again and lifted the drops. Mina held onto Jihyo’s hand, squeezing it.

Jihyo rubbed small circles into the back of the littles hand and kept singing, encouraging her through the process. “I’ll make you banana pancakes. Pretend like it’s the weekend now.”

Jeongyeon and Jihyo’s voices were so soothing and even as Mina felt the drops in her ear, she didn’t feel as scared. It still felt icky the way the drops were in ears, but it wasn’t as scary.

“Rain all day and I really, really, really don’t mind. Can’t you see? Can’t you see? You gotta wake up slow.”

By the time her mamas finished the song, her ear was already feeling much better. The ear drops really did work. Mina looked up when her mama was finished and held onto her hand. She pulled herself from Jihyo’s arms and onto Jeongyeon’s lap.

Mina cuddled into her mama’s embrace and mumbled out a small thank to the both of them. “Feel better.” Mina said in a tiny voice.

Jeongyeon and Jihyo let out a small sigh in relief. The drops would soon work their magic and after a few more days of drops, Mina’s ear infection should be gone.

Jeongyeon gently rocked Mina back and forth. “You did such a good job for us, sweet pea. Mommy and mama are so proud of you.”

A small smile formed on Mina’s lips and she tucked her head under Jeongyeon’s chin. She felt much better with her mamas.

“Wan’ banana song again p’ease.” Mina looked up at her mamas and their hearts melted. They could never say no to their baby, especially when she was being so good.

So, they laid back on Mina’s bed and started to sing again. They’d sing the song a million times if it made their baby happy.

“Well, can’t you see that it’s just raining…”

Oh boy ok this is happening I guess! Let's just pray it goes well.

*Steps back because I fully expect Eclipse to wake up and start swinging, even with whatever protocols KC put in him*

[parttimepuff]

Oh yeah Deedles was having a panic attack much like how meta was having a panic attack much like you may or may not by the end of this ask bandwanna wabble bee see the reason Beep was calming him down was because an anon (not myself regrettably) tossed an m!a at him, as in, a magic anon, rendering him a dark matter for like, I dunno. 20 minutes for you guys? Same deal with Meta, short Sweet panic inducing and very informative for them both!

M!A dark matter bandanna dee

As the long run-on sentence went on, the Waddle Dee was truly overwhelmed by the info being thrown at them all at once. "W-wait, huh, what??" Bandana questioned, having more than a few thoughts on the subject and no real inkling on what was to come. The same could not be sad for the king as he began reaching out for them. "Hey, you better not-" Dedede demanded, but for naught as a cloud of colored smoke surrounded his advisor, leaving a Dark Matter drone with their signature head-wear.

"…shit." The Penguin muttered, Kirby open mouthed at the transformation that had just taken place. As for Bandana. "…aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" They screeched, any questions they'd had replaced with blind panic. The two winced at the unexpected volume and they weren't the only ones, Beep shooting up straight in her room on the Starcutter.

"B-bandana, it's ok!!" Dedede insisted, trying to calm them down with the first thing that came to mind. "It won't last!! …right, it won't, right?" Kirby asked the king, his uncertainty not helping matters. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" Bandana continued, having hardly stopped as they had no need to take a breath in this state. "Nova damnit-" The penguin cursed, taking off his robe and wrapping them up in it. They continued screaming, though now the sound was muffled considerably.

Sighing, Dedede patted the Waddle Dee through the robe. It was the best he could do until they calmed down. But she might be able to do better. "WHO ARE YOU???" Beep shouted back through her mind just to be heard. "AAAAAAAAAA?????" Was Bandana's best response, not recognizing the voice. "Yer probably driving her nuts, Bandee." The king commented, not certain his advisor would absorb what he'd said. "Her..? Oh, Beep can hear them, right?" Kirby inquired, leaning in as though he could hear her as well.

The penguin nodded, turning his attention back to the new Matter. "Bandana! Bandana, take a deep breath, ok!? Close yer eyes. ..eye." Dedede corrected. "aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!" Bandana wailed, tough at least more quietly. "WHATS WRONG WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING???" Beep tried again, more frantic now about what was going on. "hhhhhhhhh, this is too much, Way too much at once..!" The Waddle Dee finally managed to express. Another pat. "Ah know, Bandana, it's a lot. Just listen to us. Don't think too hard about it." The penguin reminded them. "We're here and you're safe!" Kirby seconded.

"Well, tell me what’s wrong and where you are holy shit-" Beep probed, ready to go find them as soon as she could. Trying to calm themself down, Bandana focused on their voices. "Ok, ok ok ok, just listening, listening will help. I'm safe. I-I'm safe, right? You're safe??" They frantically asked. "We're all safe here, promise, Bandee!!" The puff echoed, patting them a few times for good measure. "Yer not in any danger and yer not a danger to us, Bandana." Dedede assured them.

"Ok, ok w-we're safe. I'm in, just in the throne room, been in here a million times. Did-is anyone going to come in?? Oh Nova, I was so loud-" Bandana whimpered. "Throne room-" Beep began, before she paused, understanding now what was happening. With a level of malice she rarely used, she hissed. "Anons." It wasn't hard for her to put those pieces together. Inside the room, Dedede tried to reassure the poor Dee. "Ah don't think-" He started, interrupted by knocking at the door, leaving them all silent.

"….Kirby, go answer that. Outta the room." Dedede instructed. "Right! Right, I'll do that!!" Kirby agreed, running off to run defense. Bandana groaned, their fears realized. "Y-yeah, those no good gray guys with the sunglasses, they did this a-and oh Nova, what if someone comes in..!" They despaired, terrified of what could happen to them, to the others. The king blinked, confused by their response "Eh? Oh, yer talking to her." He surmised. "H-huh?" The Waddle Dee replied. "Let Beep know ah'm here with you and you'll be alright." The penguin told them.

It was Beep that they'd been talking to..? "His majesty, he said, um he wants you to know he's here." Bandana relayed, hesitant. "Oh shit? Deeds?" Beep responded, surprised, but relieved that he was there to help them. "Y-yeah, King Dedede. Y-you know him well..?" The Waddle Dee inferred. "Pretty well." Dedede confirmed. "Are you one of his friends…? I mean, even if you aren’t I’m sure you’d be okay. I’m sorry the anons are bullying you too…" She expressed.

"I'm, I work as his advisor. We, yeah, we're really good friends… I, thank you… I never expected them to-I didn't know they could do something like this." Bandana explained. "That's, kinda on me. Ah should've told you." Dedede apologized, glancing away despite the fact that they couldn't see him. "Good! Good. So you’ll be okay!" Beep ensured them. "Anons are jerks. A lot of them anyway. They kinda do whatever the fuck they want." She grumbled. "What’s your name? Are you gonna be okay being like-" A pause. It could be left unsaid. "You gonna be okay?"

"I will be, I'll be ok…" Bandana repeated, mostly to convince themself. Trying to move on, they focused on the rest. "We've had to kick them out enough times that we know that, hmph." They huffed, more than done with their shenanigans. "My name is Bandana Dee. I'm… i-it feels so strange, but I'm, nothing hurts and I'm not, no one else is, hurt…" The Waddle Dee trailed off, still cared of the thought. "See? …it's scary, but yer still you. That hasn't changed." Dedede told them, speaking from experience.

"I-it hasn't, no. …I'm, I apologize for screaming." Bandana replied to the Matter now that they understood what she must have heard. "…why would anyone get hurt." Beep interrogated, making them tense. "I-I, that's…" The Waddle Dee searched, flustered, for the right words, catching the king's attention. "That is, what I meant was, g-getting hurt was, because I was really scared-" They continued, making things snap into focus for their boss. "Oh. Yikes. That's one thing we're going to need to teach everyone, the big thing, really." Dedede figured. "Dedede, please-" They pleaded.

"Oh." Beep realized what they'd been getting at. "I didn’t hurt anyone when I got scared. You won’t, either." She promised. "Y-yes… You're right, I-I won't. I'm, so sorry…" Bandana apologized, ashamed of thinking of the possibility. "Mm. Ah'm sure you would've come around to this without the forced transformation, but… Well, ah'm glad you know what ah know now." Dedede patted them on the head. They supposed they did know now, having spoken to her. She was just as they'd insisted she was, if not more so. Nothing like some of the things they'd heard.

"I understand… U-um, Beep? We're going to work really, really hard on announcing you and your family's citizenship. I have some ideas, we're gonna do our best." Bandana announced. This came as quite the surprise. "…really?" Beep asked, hopeful. "Really! It's, I've never really put together something like this before, but we'll go over everything with you before we start. I think his majesty has a number for you?" They glanced at the king. "Fer her uncle, but yeah." Dedede confirmed.

They paused. "Her what? Um, I need to get, caught up on everything first, I think." Bandana figured. "He has Gremlin's phone number, I think." Beep remembered. "Gremlin?? Is your uncle??" The Waddle Dee exclaimed. "Yup." Dedede confirmed nonchalantly. "Huh…" They hummed. So much strange new information. "Is it, gonna be soon?" Beep asked. "Um, if we work at it consistently, we'd probably be ready in about a week? Maybe two, depending on getting material together." They detailed.

This time, Beep said nothing. She was just surprised. Pleasantly so, but surprised nonetheless. They were working hard for her, even Bandana who had just been terrified of what she was. It wasn't lost on them how she must feel, either. With what she'd been through... they felt they could understand her, even if just a little. And as that thought passed, smoke billowed out from Dedede's robe, leaving the Waddle Dee back in their original shape. They'd certainly learned something in what must have been the last 10 minutes.

challenge: outline a hockey rpf fic based only on what you know from osmosis

Oh man anon you are fun, bc right now at like 11pm the only people's names I remember are Sid/Geno and like one or two others and can't remember what team anyone belongs to but the thing I would actually most like to do is some kind of weird magic AU where joining a hockey team gives you weird inhuman characteristics depending on the team, which is mostly an excuse to give Krakens players tentacles, but also you can do fun things like, hmm, Penguins get fun cold water survival traits and Flyers have wings!

Ooo I think you can do a really fun thing with a player who gets traded & then has to get accustomed to losing the one trait he was used to & gaining this new thing he doesn't know what to do with. There's an element of "this wasn't my choice or in my control but now I have to live with it" and maybe getting mentorship from another player about how to deal with it...

Yes ok I dig this concept, someone who actually knows anything about hockey should write it.

Okay so seals on MKs cage.... I uh hmmmm

Clog the seals with cheese?????? Give mk a random boost of magic so he breaks out on his own after the physical structure got weakened?

I'll be honest I got nothing for the magic aspect of that for his cage if another anon can get the seals off the rest can be handled penguins of Madagascar style to get him out

I don't think any Anon got power capacity for this
