Spite wasn't Lucanis's biggest issue in VG and I sort of get annoyed when people are like "Spite should have been a bigger problem!!!" Because yeah maybe before weisshaupt they should have had the two of them more earnestly disagreeing and that making it harder for Lucanis to physically be able to do his job but he spells it out for us multiple times in the Ossuary and afterwards: Spite doesn't want to be there. None of the spirits in the ossuary did. They didnt want to cross the veil spite is literally just as lost and hurt and confused as Lucanis the only reason they survived and didnt become one of those undead we have to kill is because of Lucanis's empathy and being able to put himself in Spite's shoes and see that. I don't think Spite would then actively try and sabotage the only person in the world who's been relatively kind to him he just wants Lucanis to let him be free like he promised. Like he gets frustrated and annoyed but its because Lucanis doesn't listen because listening means confronting all the other shit going on in his head and that is what he's afraid of. Not Spite. I think once he's out of the Ossuary he uses Spite as a scapegoat for all his other trauma like oh I have a demon in me so I don't have time to think about the fact that my cousin betrayed me or I was tortured or my grandmother is an abusive piece of shit SPITE IS NOT LUCANIS'S MAIN ISSUE

The Bourne Identity (2002)

[holmesunenthusiast]

The fact that before the Sign of Four Watson had literally only published a Study in Scarlet, and every story after that (before the great hiatus) he frames as happening either before or after his marriage makes me think that Mary must've been the one to encourage him to properly start writing them.

four isn't in splat3 because marie changed her job description to mainly include "kissing agent 2" and "being cute (for agent 2)"

Aaron’s such an underrated character on Aphblr tbh. He’s become one of my favorite characters in the cast as I rewatch more and more of Mystreet. Aaron will tease you, but he’s also one of the best characters in the cast to go to for emotional support. He’ll tell you as it is, smack you upside the head when you’re being crazy and shake you back to rational normalcy, but then he’ll sigh and tell you you’re gonna be just fine and everything’s gonna be okay. He is the number one (and on occasion only) holder of brain cells in the whole neighborhood. He’s the most sensible, and often the word of wisdom/rationale, much more so than Katelyn or Lucinda or Zane or Laurance are. This can often make him come off as a serious character, but he’s still down to clown! He just does it in a different way!

He’s supposed to contrast Aphmau’s louder, more extroverted, playful, ditzy, eccentric personality, by being quieter, more rational, more responsible, more cautious and careful, more reserved, a word of wisdom to contrast her crazier, chaotic energy and pranking and punning and ponies and general whimsical tomfoolery. But that does not, by any means, mean that he is not participating in the antics. Just because he’s the only one who thought to bring a first aid kit and a safety harness doesn’t mean he’s not jumping off that cliff with everyone else in this crazy cast. You tell him to dig, he’ll bring shovels. He may sigh or say “oh god not again” when shit goes awry or the gang decides they are Dead Set on doing something insane for the 10,000th time, but by god he will commit. Aphmau kidnaps a baby and goes on a mad chase for a comedic bit, and he never complains about how “stupid” and “reckless” and “obnoxious” his girlfriend is, he just says in a completely calm tone, “Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go save my girlfriend.” And he chases after her immediately lmao.

Aaron enables the antics and participates in them, and if you rile him up or challenge him damn well enough, he will throw himself into the group antics with an unbeatable, fiery fervor. If the boys decide they’re all gonna pretend to be Santa and his elves in order to cause prankster-variety chaos one day, Aaron would join in and go right alongside them. He’s here to make sure it all goes to plan. He’s here to make sure you don’t break any bones when you jump off that roof like a madman. He’s here to help you run away from the cops, help you break into the building. He may chide you for doing it in the first place (“do you even know what you’re doing?!”), and if needed he may drag you back home if you’re barking up the wrong tree and it’s nothing but detrimental to you, but if it’s viable for the bit, he absolutely will show you how to break a window correctly.

And he can be a little shit if he wants to, too!! He can snicker at you and tease you and make quips, and I bet if Aaron himself dedicated his energy to it, he would make the best of pranks. He’s not an asshole that’s full of himself and too serious and stoic and cool for being silly, he’s not a whiny bitch, he’s actually very incredibly supportive. At times, much more so than Garroth, Laurance, Zane, Katelyn, etc. He’s reliable, he trusts Aphmau a lot, he knows how shittily Aphmau cooks and still does his damndest to support her, and he will force himself to eat her biohazardous cooking just to make her happy. He is the chef of the household. He’s good with animals, animals love him. He’s a kind guy!!! He’s just got his own unique energy and vibe to him, that no one else in the cast really has, and I really appreciate that core trait of him. He’s a grounding character. He’s probably got his own ways that he’s weird and eccentric that are a lot more hidden than Aphmau’s. If we didn’t have Aaron, the entire neighborhood would have burned down ages ago, ten times over.

I genuinely do believe he’d make a fantastic dad, being a combination of a soft and gentle and tenderly loving man, and responsible enough to always bring safety helmets and bandaids and snacks, very supportive of his kids development, emotionally available as a great source of genuine advice and wisdom while still getting plenty of encouragement. He would probably want to make an effort to be a very different parent than his father was, and since he was emotionally neglected as a child, he would refuse to do anything similar to his own kids. He’d be a good influence (and Aphmau would be the bad influence LOL)

He’s kind of a teddy bear of a man <3 If he weren’t so heavily wolf-themed, I’d say a bear would be the best animal that’d fit his personality and energy. He’d protect you like a bear, he can be really fucking terrifying if he wants to, but he’d only use that power to make sure Aphmau gets what she wants and needs to make her happy. He’d never use that terrifying intimidation factor of his on his friends and loved ones, never as anything more than a single look that has a derailing Garroth/Laurance/Travis/Dante/Gene/etc. get right the fuck back on track and start backpedaling, like if they started saying or doing something careless or stupid that made Aphmau feel worse. He’s quiet and reserved with that tired, grounded, solid energy of a bear. He’s a big guy. But he can also be really soft and supportive and sweet. He takes more time to come out of his shell and let down his walls, but when he does, he really dedicates his life to the few people he manages to trust. And it’s that thick outer shell that makes Aphmau a good match for him, because she’s kinda the only character in the cast who’s able to bring him out of his shell so easily.

She’s kind and extremely friendly, unstoppably and unendingly so. She’s sweet and naive and selfless in the way that proves to Aaron that she’s not trying to get anything out of him, she’s not lying to him, and she would never neglect him or just…abandon him like a discarded toy once she’s through with him. She’s not scared of him. She sees the best in everybody, and sees that there’s something more underneath that scary, prickly outer shell of defenses that’s managed to push everyone else away and keep the likes of Laurance and Garroth and Katelyn on their toes. She sees what no one else does, she sees the true beauty and the kind heart he has underneath. Even in MCD, when he’s literally held a sword to her throat and threatened her life multiple times, she can still sense that he’s full of shit and there’s a kind heart underneath, and if she does a little cultivating, extends a hand of gentle kindness and genuine affection, a kind of love and affection he’s never really seen before and been starved of all his life… it works wonders, and he steps out to meet her. He changes, drastically, because she sees the best in him, and that makes him want to become the best version of himself that he can be, for her. Where he might hate himself and grapple with feeling unloveable, Aphmau is there to remind him none of its true. And so he tries to keep her nightmares away in return, sticking by her side, taking care of her, cooking for her, encouraging her to keep doing everything she does best, defends her against the bullies that make her feel like she’s not good enough, and takes her by the shoulders to remind her that she is good enough, and all the voices out there and in her head that tell her she’s not are full of shit. Because he knows first-hand, better than most, the good things she brings to those around her and the wonderful presence she is in others lives, and how wonderful she is as a person. He trusts her. He’s here to guide her along in her path to becoming her fullest self, to give her that last big nudge to boost her along the way. Likely on a cosmic level, mainly, with her becoming Irene.

He’s very sweet, he’s sweet to Aphmau, Aphmau’s even sweeter to him, and genuinely I’ve learned to love the big, fluffy guy and I really appreciate him and his impact on the other characters the more and more I see of him. I don’t really know how I would enjoy Mystreet or MCD or the Aphverse without him. If he were real, I would love to give him one big hug, I bet his hugs would be amazing (topped only by Garroth’s rib-crushing bear hugs)

this is not me asking for requests but as i consider carl morck as a character while i go to sleep does anyone who was interested in fics for him have any specific ideas for blurbs! like a scenario straight from the show or straight from your gorgeous brain or anything at all? just wanna get ideas flowing in my head! could be angsty, fluff, hurt/comfort, or smut or a combo of anything. i love banter and am imaging a reader who is both sweet and sassy, nice to him but doesn't put up with his bullshit either <3

[iamhereinthebg]

Hiii, I really your art! Do you have any aus or fics?

Heyaaa! Thank you sm Anon I am so glad to hear that!

For Aus, my main one is a canon divergent one where the Mysteries know each other (it doesn't follow a precize timeline, they mostly just vibe in a white void)

And for more infos on old aus I answered an ask a looong time ago: here (I still really vibe with mysteryFam and AfterLife au)

I also have some shared aus with my friend @mari-lair where we basically just go insane on random aus AidaIro did illustrations for (Bee au and Magical Girl Au my beloved)

I have others aus I don't plan on really sharing for now (I can barely be active here at all dshkdjs) but maybe one day I am not sure

And for Fics I never wrote any in my life (at least in english and I never finished any ahah) but I started one really recently that could also be considered an au. A super indulgent canon divergent fic.

Where Akane wakes up in an unknown place after the events of the red house, having fuzzy memories of what happened in the new timeline. He just wanna go back Home.

And that's the idea for now and if you follow this blog a little of course you know which character he will meet on his journey (spoilers alert: the mystery kids ofc, I plan to make Akane and Shijima interact sm omg)

I don't think I will post it (my writing english is a disaster it's so obvious that the sentences were thought in half another language/half english ahah) but I plan to do some illustrations for it when I can :DD I am kinda excited for this one for now ^^

Thank you again for the ask Anon!

[littleplantfreak]

Hmmmmmm how about Kaji, Ume, Suo, Sakura and Kiryu reacting to their s/o telling them they’re on a no-sex-ban for a whole motherfucking week HELP ALL BECAUSE OF A PETTY ARGUMENT

Kaji’s in disbelief at first. Are you serious? Unfortunately for him you are, which leaves him brooding more than normal for the week and everyone can tell. It’s not that he NEEDS it technically, but its like when someone tells you you cant have something and you start just…thinking and thinking and thinking and now he’s antsy, but he does stick it out to the very end if only because he’s insanely stubborn.

I think Ume’s actually more bothered you both argued even if it was petty. The no sex ban doesn’t affect him much as long as he can do other stuff. A week without cuddling and kisses would kill him probably, but he’s pretty satisfied just spending the time making up with you and getting back to normal.

Suo’s kind of a petty bitch (at least to me) so he ends up thinking “alright bet” when you tell him no sex for a week. He ends up making it harder for YOU during the week with how much of a tease he is. “You said no sex! I’m just stopping where I’m at so I follow your rules,” he says so smugly you wanna throttle him. Makes you hold yourself to it. If it was a more serious argument I think it’d be different though.

Hmm…Sakura’s baffled like Kaji, but more because he has no clue what that has to do with the argument. Realizes you’re punishing him despite there really being no correct side to your argument and just grumbles about it. He’d probably get the wrong idea though and assume you don’t want him to touch you at all. You’re probably gonna have to talk to him about it or apologize, because in the end he gives you too much space (while pouting the whole time)

Kiryu’s also a little petty but not as much as Suo is. Accepts your terms and respects them, but tells you if you change your mind, he’s more than happy to go whenever. If you try to initiate he’ll be like “but what about the ban? are we lifting that now hm?” all soothing and sweet as he rubs your calves and thighs with his hands. I think he’s one of the few that just talks you out of it by hitting your weak spots.

homesick (1/?)

summary: It’s Annabeth’s wedding day. She leaves the groom at the altar. 

Or, the day she runs away for the last time and everything that follows.

The dress is white. She always thought she wanted a color, partially out of spite against all the customs and etiquette and expectations of matrimony. Just because the Chase family likes to adhere to customs doesn’t mean Annabeth does, and she’s certainly got the juvenile detention arrest record to prove that. Her hair is tied back out of her face in an elegant updo; they’d attempted to straighten her curls at Helen’s behest, but even the strongest hairspray couldn’t keep them all down, and some of her hair waves and coils anyway. The veil is pinned in neatly and trailing down her back. The dress has sleeves - she wasn’t so sure she wanted them either, but her stepmother insisted in the alterations.  “Something borrowed,” she’d said of the sleeves, given the lace was from her family. Annabeth isn’t even technically related to them, and they never liked her.  She looks at herself in the mirror and frowns. Her frown only deepens when she thinks she probably shouldn’t be frowning. It’s her wedding day. It’s supposed to be the happiest day of her life. Somewhere in the church, her fiance is waiting, presumably looking handsome in his suit. She touches the necklace at her throat.  “Something blue,” Helen said, offering the gold chain with the small blue sapphire attached. Piper had frowned, because they’d just been talking about the seashell earrings Annabeth had wanted - in blue.

anyway i've been reluctant to share this weird thing i'm working on given my track record for finishing things, but it's been a WEEK of a few days so. fuck it we ball.

Worth it (Romy)

"That’s it, we’re banning that word."

"What ?! But...chère ! You can't decide to ban a word like that !"

"I can and I have."

Remy's outraged expression was funny, but it didn't take long for it to turn into an evil smirk.

"Oh yeah ? And what will you do if I say it again ?"

Rogue snorted in disdain but didn't answer because, to be honest, there wasn't much she could do to stop him from saying it over and over again. He got closer and grabbed her arm as she tried to move away.

"Rogue", he said in a warm, intense voice.

The fact that he used her name rather than the usual nickname showed how important the moment was, and Rogue allowed herself to be captured, her eyes riveted on his as he ran a gloved finger over her face. He lingered a moment to caress her skin, then tucked back a lock of her hair.

"You're worth it. Believe me. I wish you could see how worthy you are."

She wrinkled her nose because he said it again, but still couldn't stop looking at him. Listening to him. Feeling his fingers around her arm, his breath so close to her mouth. She wanted him, she needed him, but she couldn't and she shouldn't and...

"Chère", he said again. His lips were closer. She drew in a sharp breath, trying to steel herself as Remy's smirk grew wicked.

"Say it, chère. I want you to repeat it : I'm worthy, I'm worthy, I'm worthy. Say it."

She frowned and jerked her arm away to take a step backwards.

"Worthy of what ? Of a week coma ? You're an idiot, Remy."

"A full week ?" he grinned. "That's a long kiss you're promising me."

"Shut up."

"Je suis un idiot", he conceided. "But that doesn't change the fact that you're worthy, Rogue. I don't care if I have to wait months, years or decades to kiss you. I don't care about the gloves, or the potential coma or the obstacles that the universe will put between us. Je t'aime, and you're worth loving. You can ban that word all you want, it doesn't change the fact it's true. You're worth it all, chère, and you'd better start believing it, because I won't stop saying it."

so tired of tudor dramas where there are no women… and even when there are women… there aren’t…ykwim?

[backjustforberena]

I'm really annoyed because I rewatched "Maryland" and now I have all these questions and thoughts and potential fic ideas. I didn't need this. I didn't need this at all.

[resident-gay-bitch]

Hiii if you like the marauders maybe you wanna checkout some of my fics? I’ve currently got 11 up on my ao3 and a bunch more ficlets and stuff on tumblr that you can find through my pinned post!!

If you decide to stop by, thanks for checking my work out, and if you stick around, thanks for reading!!

A 2 for Anne Wentworth and a newborn baby?

Aww sweet!

2. A kiss on the nose

"Do you think she has the Elliot countenance?" Mary asked, leaning down to peer into the baby's face. "No, I don't think she does."

"It would be remarkable if she did, considering she is only four weeks old," Anne said mildly.

"I hope you'll be able to put that rash to rights before Father visits you. He would be most displeased by it."

Anne did not bother pointing out that nearly all babies at this age had these little red bumps on their faces, including Mary's own, nor that her father had made no promise to visit his newest grandchild any time soon.

Instead, Anne bent her face to the baby's own, and placed a soft kiss upon the end of her tiny pink nose. "I think your countenance is perfect, dear heart," she whispered.

Dreamcatcher (sfw)

(or who has dreams, nightmares, and anything in between)

Sakura has dreams and nightmares, although most of the time he only remembers snippets. Prone to gasping awake or shooting up into sitting position during nightmares. The type to have dreams about his friends and feel like they’re at fault for what happened. Once he had a dream Nirei stole his food and he wouldn’t let Nirei sit next to him during lunch the next day without telling him specifically he better back off his sandwiches.

Whenever Hiragi has a nightmare, stomach cramping follows. Whether it’s his stomach causing them or them causing further stomach distress, he’ll never know, but he has tea and medicine to settle down before trying again. Mumbles in his sleep on occasion, and it’s really kind of cute.

It’s no surprise Umemiya is a dreamer. Sure maybe once in a blue moon he’ll have a bad one, but for the most part they’re really weird and silly. Loves to talk about them at breakfast the next morning, recounting his time flying with a penguin, or being chased by trolls. He remembers the whole thing usually, though he’s such a deep sleeper that once he’s worn himself out enough and has one of those big, drool inducing rests, he just sleeps with no dreams to be had.

Suo is vague, beats around the bush, and generally likes to joke around. When he tells his friends he dreams in black and white? He’s actually telling the truth! He doesn't have good or bad dreams often, but when he does, he likes to laugh about them in the morning. Something about them looking like he’s watching an old movie makes them all the more funny.

Kaji has nightmares more than dreams, but mostly he sleeps without either. He’ll be in a shit mood the next day though, because the nightmare will have him tossing and turning, trying to find the comfiest spot on the bed that seems to have disappeared in the hour or so it took him to be woken by it. Another sleep mumbler. He can actually sleep with his music blasting in his ears pretty easily too!

Kotoha dreams most of the time. She’ll exchange sleep stories with Ume, but hers always seem to be a little tamer than his. Has a diffuser that cycles through colored lights she’ll put on if she has a dream she deems ‘not great’ and a stuffed dragon her siblings got her that guards her dreams on the nightstand next to her bed. Sometimes she’ll have it on the pillow next to her for no particular reason; it’s just soothing (and so soft and cute.)

Experimenting some more with em dashes and incoherent sentences 🤍 I love messing around with words. This poem came out of nowhere but I think it’s really representative of the way I’ve been feeling lately.

Let me know your thoughts and interpretations.

Thank you for reading and stay safe! 😊
