RULES ☆

key:

italicized if it's a preference

asteriks if there is a note at the bottom with further context

what i will write :3

canon x canon, canon x reader (if you send a request and want your reader to have specific attributes, tell me, or i'll make it as neutral as possible), canon x oc for friends

readers of any gender (request specific pronouns please! neos, any pronouns, he/they, she/they, whatever floats your boat! if you give no pronouns and no indication of a gender for your reader such as f!/m!/gn!, i will default to they/them or dm you if you're off anon)

queer relationships, het relationships*, polyamory, monogamy, open relationships

dom, sub or verse readers/dom, sub or verse canon characters

most kinks are okay (including stuff like blood, impact play and weapon play) so feel free to get specific in my inbox

neurodivergent or disabled readers (if it's something i'm unfamiliar with i will do research and try my best, but please feel free to leave me pointers in your request to help me!)

oneshots, short series (think 2 or 3 parts), drabbles, headcanons

what i wont write :3

no rape (dubcon is on thin ice), drugging, abuse*, yandere, pregnancy, pedophilia, student/teacher (even if its a college student) or large age gap pairings

nsfw for underage characters

no scat/piss/emeto, no cnc

no comfort works for csa/sa, self harm or eating disorders (writing this would probably trigger me, sorry)

long x reader series

further info :3

you must be +18 to request nsfw or interact with nsfw content (you will be blocked if i catch you breaking this rule)

i wont write verbal/physical abuse between the main pairing but i wouldn't mind doing it as something the reader or the canon character have dealt with in the past (whether that be from a parent/ex partner/friend doesnt matter, you can specify in the request). if the canon character has been abused in their source material i will also include this ofc.

i wouldnt mind writing stuff like codependency or like kill for each other type shit, but there's a fine line between like. guy who kills somebody in defense of their partner bc it makes sense for the story/their character (think characters like adrian chase for example) vs making a character who doesn't rly kill people do that bc then it comes across more ooc and sometimes even yandereish...if that makes sense.

please give me an idea of what you want in a request, don't just send "character x reader" (give me a scenario or at least say like "fluff with [insert character]").

im not the fastest writer unless im really excited about a prompt, please be patient. thanks to adhd i can be a bit of a procrastinator, but if you sent a request please feel free to ask for progress updates (just give me the specifics of what you asked for so i know it's yours). depending on how busy i am irl, if i have writers block and how many requests i have, writing might go faster or slower.

i'll try to do things first come, first serve, but if somebody sends in a new idea that really excites me i might write theirs first even if yours came before theirs bc i have adhd brain and i can write things faster when i'm rly hyped about em

erm idk if anyone cares but im a self shipper so yeah perhaps fics with my f/o's will deranged (in a loving way), if you want a list of my f/o's for those concerned with stuff like sharing, here is a list of mine, i don't mind sharing tho <3 my content is aimed towards selfshippers and i wouldn't wanna exclude anyone who shares so much love for the same lil guys as me

some characters i wont write x f!reader/m!reader for, please check this list before requesting (this is not an issue with any straight/bi/other interpretations of these characters, it just has to do with my comfort level and how i interpret that character)

like i mentioned before, i have adhd and i am specifically unmedicated at the moment, which means sometimes i'll write a lot more of one fandom than the others i'm into. this does not mean you can't request a different fandom! i will always be multifandom, i will always love my past fandoms, it just might take me a bit longer to write your request.

at the end of the day i just wanna keep things fun, writing has been a hobby of mine for over a decade now, so pls try to be kind to me and i'll be kind back! if any of these rules are unclear just send me an ask and i'll try to clarify!

Omg omg spotify just recommended this song to me: Kill Bill by SZA, and it has such intense obikin vibes to me. But is like Anakin/Vader chasing obi-wan throughout the kenobi series and a new hope? Or is it more jealous obi-wan who has fallen to the dark side because he’s jealous of Anakin’s relationship and is chasing Anakin around? What do you think??? Or am I just losing my mind and think literally everything relates to obikin now even when it doesn’t ??

listen, i heard boom boom boom by the vengaboys last summer and thought this would be a song anakin plays on a ridiculously loud and uses to “serenade” obi-wan (who’s both confused and exasperated), so you’re definitely not losing your mind. let me reassure you. you're not. we're all brainrotting here and we all welcome it ✌️

that being said omg those lyrics tho. i did wonder who would be who. i feel like obi-wan is more likely to be the one to at least try to be with another person after being with anakin and breaking up for whatever reason but i don't see him falling like this and then (trying to) killing his ex sjsjsnsn. this level of obsession is more anakin’s forte. that being said i think an obi-wan who quietly seethes with jealousy is just absolutely delicious to me.

anyway!! yeah, i think it would be more anakin (or rather vader, really, if you closely follow the lyrics) chasing obi-wan. and the thought of that is devastating, isn't it. i wouldn't be able to (or even want to tbh) write something like this but yeah, i think vader would kill obi-wan and his potential new partner to make sure nobody else would have his former master if he himself can't have him. its a bit murky tbh because while anakin/vader do have these violent outbursts (anakin with clovis, and vader is, well, vader and also canonically kills obi-wan) but anakin (and by extension vader) (they're not separate people, im just trying to distinguish moments of his life sksjsnsksk) didn't physically attack padme over clovis, he “only” choked her when he first fell and was already steeped deeper in the dark side than ever before, therefore already more twisted and enraged and out of control. so there is still, i suppose, a fine line to walk between him not actually wanting to hurt the person he loves and him being so utterly deranged that he does (nearly) kill them. so it would depend which nuance you want to give to the setting and story. because i could also see him killing the partner but not obi-wan, and make this be a sort, idk, taunt? or threat and a promise that if he can't have obi-wan, he'll make sure nobody else will, but because he's also cruel and vindictive and possessive but in a way that makes him unwilling to actually kill obi-wan, he'd go for killing every person who tries to get close to obi-wan. which is just very fucked up and dark and very unhappy.

anyway, i dont actually know why i typed this all up tbh but even though im not usually into something like this (writing or reading-wise) it's still fun to sort of brainstorm it or something i guess??

so, again, you're def not alone and not losing your mind!!

[bepp-ers]

AHHHH I read your Drabble on my father Izuku or Bakugou; I loved it! I’m instantly curious if you wanna do another request from me, but if you’re ever free can you do some head cannons of life before and after finding out?? like things the reader was allowed to do and then how life goes after that whole things?? i always wonder if yandere fathers would allow their little girls to date or something lol. Idk if im explaining it well; just some nice ole head canons. also did he like kill the mother?😭 I’m like “oh nah what did she do???”

hey! always happy to see you in my asks <3 thanks for the request!! and sorry this took so long, ive been sorting out college applications recently and it is SO hectic, but im here now!!!! love you anon! <3

PART ONE IS HERE!!! HIGHLY SUGGEST READING THIS FIRST <3

more yandere! father! platonic! izuku midoriya/katsuki bakugou headcanons, bc why not?

Firstly, he did kill the mother in the first half.

Basically, his darling had had enough of him and tried to contact authorities, and also take him out herself.

She wanted her child to be safe, as well as him gone, and she was willing to do anything to rid the world of him.

In his eyes, there was no hope. Normally, he'd try to redeem her. Let her prove her love again. But it was too far.

She had to die. And so, he killed her.

After all, he's pretty fucking deranged. You didn't forget that, did you?

-

Before the incident, you could do a bit more. Sure, you couldn't go out alone. And dating was out of the question.

But you had whatever you wanted. All the money, the best phone, the nicest room.

He'd do anything for his only kid! After all, you were his pride and joy. More of a brag, but you didn't realise.

Don't try supporting another pro hero, though. He'll destroy your memorabilia, and ask you to please only support him, okay?

He's the best. He alone will protect you. He's your dad, for god's sake! He has to show you that he's the best hero.

Nevermind Red Riot, or Creati- pay attention to him.

Oh, and he has no actual intention of allowing you to become a hero. Too dangerous, the hero industry.

For Bakugou, if you inherited his quirk, you weren't to use it too much for fear of getting hurt.

If you were quirkless, great!! You're weak and need his protection more than ever. He'll look after you, don't you worry your sweet little head.

For Midoriya, I'm sorry but he was quirkless, you're probably gonna be quirkless too. He was considering passing One for All down to you, but he just couldn't.

All that training and damage, how could he put you through it?? So he had to let you stay safe and sound, under his protection.

After the incident, you can't do anything.

No going out. Always under his watch. He will know everything. No contact with the outside world.

He'll also refrain from finding a darling for a while. He's still a bit upset over his old one, so it'll just be the two of you for a while.

He thinks he's the perfect parent. And maybe he is.

Like it or not, you're stuck with him, so get used to it! You don't have anyone else.

OKAY! ive caught up on punz’s stream, and unless im missing anymore i think im good for tonight

some interesting things have been revealed/confirmed, so we’re making a list

yeah it was a little thing and probably not canon, but i find the fact that dream used his god-of-the-smp powers to tp punz to him

dream did not mention his spy in the butcher army to punz. it could be that he doesn’t trust punz enough, but idk about that since dream has also said that punz is really the only person that dream can trust to be on his side, so he could have been lying about a spy? he sometimes hangs out in walls so i wouldnt be surprised if he was just trailing someone

also? dream is getting worried. we dont generally see this because he keeps on a mask(lol), so i think its interesting that he trust punz with his vulnerability. im guessing hes really feeling like punz is his last friend and is putting a lot of trust in him

dream was sounding super lonely? ive talked about this before, but this just confirmed it. all he wants is for the smp to be all united together, to be “one big family” and hes just trying to fix it in whatever deranged way he thinks will work

dream has something BIG planned. like, he said “nobody’s gonna like me” so thats gotta be something actually extreme. I cant really imagine what it could be, unless hes destroying everything, or imprisoning everyone, so thats something to look out for

hes planning to leave dream smp. like not in a meta way, but aside from him taking time to look for tommy, hes also planning to go away after the big thing he pulls, and hes going to put punz in charge

he cares about punz, obviously, but also enough to publicly “break” relations between himself and punz in order to protect him. it could also be so that when dream leaves he still has a hold on to power when he has punz in charge (might happen at the festival? that would probably be a good time, but it may be too late in the year)

dream’s casual tone when talking about terrorizing tommy is freaky, and his little ‘make sure hes still under...’ to quickly changing to saying ‘make sure hes okay’ makes me wonder how aware he is that what hes doing is bad, and if hes trying to hide it

punz is fully a mercenary, and called his and dreams relationship and alliance before he said friendship, and im just thinking hes super neutral about all thats happening as long as he gets his own things. hes really only out here for money and i have to wonder if hed pause if someone offered him more money

obsetress: so isabel can get a kiss from her mom

em: im going to kill u w my bare hands

obsetress: cut to vi in the bathroom wiping it off later à la jennifer check

em: im GONNA

obsetress: sometimes when vi has to go out of town for business or w/e she leaves a stack of napkins with arthur to put in isabel's lunch so she can still get a kiss from her mom even when she's gone

em: thats so extra??

em: dani transformative power of (platonic) love

obsetress: "Platonic"

[obaewankenope]

on the ranking of angels

the whole ranking of angels kinda comes from one guy: pseudo-dionysius the areopagite from 5th century ad, this dude gave us the basis for ranking angels in groups, levels, grades, choirs etc

we don’t really know who tf he was since he literally just made himself out to be some psuedo version of dionysius (because we obviously needed another dionysius in human history) and i’d love to time travel and kick him in the nads if i could.

anyway. so yeah. ranking angels. 

my upbringing is catholic and i went to communion and read that godsawful bible and blah-blah and so on so like, a lot of my own understanding stems from that and then the deranged Research Frenzies i’m known for. this means i’ve done learning about this topic and generally, i feel like there’s a bit of a... misunderstanding in the good omens fandom as to where aziraphale, crowley (as raphael or not), gabriel and co seem to land in terms of ranks and power levels.

cherubim, seraphim, archangels... fancy words we sort of know but don’t really Get. time to get em.

.

F I R S T  S P H E R E

saraph/seraph-im:

according to tradition, these boys are top dog in christian theology but fifth in jewish. my memory serves to remind me that archangels are also seraphim and that the three main types of angels are cherubs, saraph, and thrones with the other spheres being more titles for them to have on top of that. i’ve read online where the archangels michael, gabriel, and samael/lucifer are either saraph or cherubs but this is... well, thanks to pseudo-dionysius, not exactly easy to frickin’ parse. the book of isaiah describes saraphs as having six wings (two on the back, two hiding the face, two at the feet/genitals).

this means that gabriel, lucifer, michael, uriel and even sandalphon (dude why no ‘iel’ on the end, it’s sad) are higher ranks than aziraphale in terms of sheer power even if they may be outranked by aziraphale regarding humans proper. make sense? nope? not surprising.

cherub-im:

cherubs attend to god and are also kinda shoved into the joyous role of guarding eden. in jewish theology, cherubs are either second or third lowest ranked (eighth or ninth) compared to the saraphs who are middle of the way. it’s from cherubs -- described in the book of ezekiel -- that we have that many faced, multi-winged conception of angels btw. usually a lion, ox, human, and eagle to represent all types of animals (where’s the snake you say? crowley nicked it... probably). thanks to some later western christian traditions we kinda see cherubs as plump, little, babies with those bows with love-heart arrows (probably crowley’s doing to piss aziraphale off). cherubs do have two pairs of wings (four in total) compared to the six that saraphs have, making them different at least there.

so aziraphale being a cherub makes sense. but he’s gonna be second-tier to saraphs like gab’ and co thus he does still obey gabriel as and when required--only in regards to humans can aziraphale kinda disobey because principality trumps archangel with humans but again, gabriel has more pull in heaven and can still punish him (plus gabriel is an asshole in the show and is Just Like That)

thrones aka ophanim:

these fellas are kinda just guards of gods throne. they’re called thrones or galgalim (refers to ezekiel’s wheels during his vision of the chariot). a dead sea scroll calls them angels and puts them below saraphs and cherubs while the book of enoch says they never sleep (like saraphs and cherubs) and guard god’s throne. i can’t really find any names ascribed to this group but are associated with meting out divine justice and maintain cosmic harmony.

i can only imagine how Done they are with crowley over him stopping time...

.

i’m just gonna straight up skip the second sphere because, well; dominions organise lower angels and keep things ticking over; virtues are the sign post makers of divine shit; and powers/authorities just watch a lot and keep things running along on a cosmic scale. so, administrators. literally. poor civil servants of heaven. they probably don’t even get a decent pay.

.

the third sphere is what we’re interested in anyway, because of the whole “principalities outrank archangels tho” stuff. so here we are

.

T H I R D  S P H E R E

principalities:

principalities/rulers are guides and protectors of nations and institutions. so you’d have a principality guarding the catholic church, one covering the orthodox church, another who deals with maybe protecting italy and so on. aziraphale is the principality of the eastern gate of eden, that- that’s a pretty big thing. principalities wear crowns and carry sceptres, and carry out the orders given to them by upper sphere angels.

in canon, aziraphale is a principality, but i can’t recall him being called anything. i’m not sure if it’s fandom deciding here’s a cherub or not, ignoring the spheres or not, or whatever, but he doesn’t Really rank above gabriel. gaiman himself made a note of the difference between Archangels and archangels - the capital A makes the difference. so see seraphs as Archangels and third sphere archangels as the generic boys. 

in my mind, gabriel and michael -- as pretty much the only really named archangels in christian theology -- are the Archangels whilst sandalphon and uriel are archangels. so aziraphale can ignore two of the four but not michael or gabriel outright (we’re not discussing the disobedience by avoidance tactic he employs a lot). expanding the Archangel category to include maybe Raphael (angel of healing) and Azrael (angel of death) works too, but generally, aziraphale can’t disobey direct orders from them because they are his bosses. unless -- and this is the thing -- it comes to something involving His Specific Principality. but being the principality of eden is... well, eden doesn’t exist anymore. some major mental gymnastics would be required for aziraphale to decide Earth Is Eden Thus Earth Is My Principality SUCK IT GABRIEL and ignore heaven... actually... this might well explain a fair amount of his behaviour lmao. someone else can play with That tho. 

archangels:

funnily enough, archangels aren’t mentioned in the bible more than two or three times. in christianity, gabriel is called an archangel but there’s actually nothing in the bible to support that. michael is called an archangel in the new testament tho. the word means “chief angel” coming from greek archein for first in rank or power -- hence why it’s a bit odd for archangels to be ranked below others. archangel is only ever a singular term and used Only for michael btw. 

but in the book of tobit/tobias, we get an archangel raphael, an archangel uriel is also brought up in anglican and russian orthodox religions. raphael isn’t really considered a Canon angel outside of roman catholicism (my lot btw), eastern orthodox and anglicans, whilst uriel isn’t mentioned in the western christian bible at all. 

raphael gives us the idea of seven archangels btw - from the book of tobit where he says he’s “one of the seven who stand before the Lord”. 

in the books of enoch and revelations, we’re told that there are seven spirits of god that stand before the throne and some interpretations have the seven archangels as those seven spirits.

depending on the theological tradition, the names of the archangels vary. the ones i know of as roman catholic are gabriel, michael, and raphael (lucifer doesn’t count bc he’s fallen obvs), whereas eastern orthodox has seven and even an extra one depending: michael, gabriel, raphael, uriel, selaphiel/salathiel, jegudiel/jehudiel, barachiel, and jerahmeel/jeremiel.

the names vary depending on what faith you are but, generally, the three most common are gabriel, michael, and raphael - who are described as seraphim or cherubim and archangels as like their job title.

angels:

regular dudes. i cba even going Into This One Okay?

.

so all of this means that aziraphale is second to gabriel no matter what unless he does some awesome mental gymnastics and claims earth as eden and argues it’s his job to oversee it as fit (just imagine the vein in gabriel’s head popping from That Conversation).

aziraphale is definitely powerful, he’d have to be as a principality of eden - it’s kind of a Big Deal to be in charge of eden, even if you might share the job with three others - but he’s not quite as powerful as an archangel who is basically the second in command of heaven after god.

unless, as i’ve said, aziraphale draws on his position as a principality and uses That over gabriel who seems very set on his “i’m the fucking archangel gabriel” spiel lmao.

so yeah. this is just A Thing for me. idk if any one else feels this way about it all or not, but you can ignore me about all of this. i’m not an Authority on it and honestly, this is more to make sense of it all For Myself than to Tell Ya’ll How It Ought To Be.
