REVERSED JAMS AU

In the distant past, when the chaos of iron and flame still reigned, five cookies were baked by the witches. Radiant beings graced with wisdom and power parallel to their own,the five were destined to reshape the tempestuous world and usher in an new era of peace, prosperity, and enlightenment for all.

Alas, great power always begets corruption.

One by one, their will crumbled under the weight of their own strength. Once promised saviors, the five became twisted apostles of evil, and brought forth darkness and devastation. The witches could not bear to watch the calamity that had befallen the precious land of their creation, and so the witches and the five began a war so destructive that remnants of it’s jam-shed were still evident in the lands, these five, who were given powers parallel to their creators managed to hold off the witches, even managing to kill one. Because of their sister’s sacrifice, the witches managed to take a large portion of the beast’s power, sealing them and their forces in the remote continent of Crispia, with the vestiges of power left behind, the witches then decided to create 5 more, heroes formed from the purest of dough and the half that the witches did manage to take from the beasts, it was purified in an enchanted sea and bathed in starlight, blessed by the winds, given the ferocity of flames, and merged together by nature and frost, thus creating 5 heroes, Truth, Resolution, Abundance/Change, Passion, and Freedom.

Some notes:

This is the initial plot for my Reversed Jams Au,

It's not really fleshed out yet, but I know what I want.

Pure Vanilla will be inspired by Prometheus (his backstory)

White Lily will be inspired by Pandora

Golden Cheese will be inspired (slightly) by Niobe and Isis

Holly Berry will be inspired (slightly) by Ishtar

Dark Cacao Cookie will be inspired by....idk..

Shadow Milk will be inspired by Odin

Mystic Flour will be inspired by Guan Yin

The rest of them? Idk, like I said I'm still fixing this up and making details along the way...

Lilith, Mother of Demons

Notes under cut, including some Bible info!

Between dolls, snakes, apples, circuses, ducks, etc, there were just too many motifs/thematic elements to shove onto just Lucifer. So, I streamlined and distributed. Lucifer is goat themed, Lilith is snake themed. Charlie is a mix of the two. I also use this to partly to imply that "the Devil" is not solely Lucifer. But humans mistake various different demons as one character. Lucifer is just the one who gets blamed for everything. That's part of why he's a goat; he's a scapegoat.

Snakes- there is a trending theme of Lilith being associated with snakes, and sometimes being the serpent who tempts Eve. I wanted to give her snake hair, but making all of it snakes would be too many and a hassle to draw. So I went with seven to represent the 7 deadly sins. They're all named, just like how Charlie has Hugh.

Pride= Vani (vanity)

Wrath= Irene (Ire)

Gluttony= Tony (gluttony)

Greed= Ava (avarice)

Lust= Libby (libido)

Envy= Desi (desire)

Sloth= Lazlo (lazy)

Owls- lilith has sometimes been translated as owl or as night bird. In some Mesopotamian myths, lilith demons fly. Some tablets depict a lilith with talons, horns, and/or wings.

Vampires - This is a design element that I didn't realize was a historically viable association to make until after I made the design. But I figured it would be good to mention anyway. Lilith has been equated with some vampiric elements over the centuries. It comes from a thematic overlap between succubi and early depictions of vampires. So while I may not have had vampires in mind, I think some of the elements naturally bled through(no pun intended).

Dolls- I took this one from canon Lucifer and gave it to Lilith instead. I figured she was created and used like a doll, so it could fit decently enough.

Full demon form: I designed her to be similar to a lamia from Greek mythology. Lamia is the latin equivalent to lilith, and lamia happen to be associated with snakes. I didn't know that until after I designed her normal form, so it's a neat coincidence. Lamia is both a single character and a type of snake-woman creature. Waist up is woman, waist down is snake. Similar to the nagas of hindu lore. More about Lamia in a bit.

--Heavenbound Backstory--

My ideas for her backstory can be found through HERE.

--is Lilith really Biblical? Kind of, but not really--

So, fun fact. Lilith isn't really in the Bible. The word lilith is mentioned once in Isaiah 34:14 in some translations. But translation is a tricky process and subject to the interpretation of the translator. It's an inevitable issue. It's part of why there are so many different versions of the Bible.

The single mention of lilith isn't even used as a name. Lilit/lilitu/other spelling variations are a type of Mesopotamian she-demon. Basically succubi, but then the concept merged with the child-killer Lamatshu. Liliths are often associated with seduction, wet dreams, reproductive problems, and child death. Using the term lilith had a cultural context that we don't really have now. It's like how people today will blame mysterious phenomenon on aliens.

Other Bible translations will use "night creatures", "screech owls", "Lamia" or other similar phrases instead. The context of the verse can change drastically based on what phrasing is used. Most versions(including the most popular ones like the KJV) steer away from "lilith".

--The Other Woman--

Bible: The idea of a woman before Eve is based on rabbinic myths used to explain a perceived discrepancy in the biblical creation story. In one account, it sounds as if man and woman were created together. In another, it sounds as if woman was created after. These myths also accuse Eve of a lot of misconduct, so it seems like a pretty misogynistic take anyway(and I don't use that phrasing lightly). These myths didn't name the woman, as far as I'm aware.

Lilith as the first wife: The oldest known depiction of Lilith as Adam's first wife is from a medieval Jewish story, the "Alphabet of Ben Sira." The author is unknown, and it's widely considered satirical. Lilith is ultimately portrayed as the evil one.

In some depictions of her, she forces herself on Adam and has his demon children. Or she is infertile and steals and/or kills babies. Or she causes miscarriages and fertility issues.

Samael's wife: In some other depictions, she and Samael are born as one. Sometimes as a hermaphrodite, sometimes in the same manner as Adam and Eve. And yet other depictions, she is the first wife of Samael. Sometimes God castrates Samael to prevent them from having demonic children, so Lilith goes to copulate with unaware sleeping men. Other times Lilith is rendered infertile. Sometimes she's the wife of Asmodeus.

Lamia: In the Latin Vulgate, lilith is translated as lamia. There are elements of early ideas for vampirism. Then Lilith is equated with the Greek character Lamia, who also has conflicting origin stories. Lamia has a human upper half and and snake lower half. In some sources, she is a daughter of Hecate. In another, she is cursed by Hecate to have stillborn children. In another, Hera killed all of Lamia's children, and Lamia's grief turned her into a monster that would steal and devour children. In some instances she was also cursed to never close her eyes/sleep, but Zeus gifted her the ability to remove her eyes instead.

Islam: Arabic folklore depicts a character similar to Lilith. She was rejected by Adam, so she mated with Iblis(the demon king) instead. She gave birth to thousands of demons.

Feminism: Lilith, overall, was depicted as an evil character until the feminist movement in the 70s. That's when she was depicted by Judith Plaskow as a strong willed woman who refused to submit to Adam(I guess they just ignored the history of rape and child murder, great job picking an inspirational feminist icon y'all). It's this feminist interpretation that Hellaverse seems to have based Lilith off of.

I wanted to balance aspects of these while also still favoring the portrayal of Lilith as not-evil. Unless canon decides to make her evil, then I may revisit the idea.

(Feb 19, 2025- fixed typos and rephrased some lined for clarity) (Feb 20, 2025- added the names of the snakes) (Feb 27, 2025- added a full demon form design and notes about it, reworded some lines)

DontOffendTheBees' DBDA Fic Masterpost

Or, essentially, my 2024 Ao3 Wrapped because this show is all I've posted on main all year 😅 But it's nice to be back in the swing of writing and it's been such a rough year, so I'm gonna take a minute now to bask in the glow of my accomplishments 💛

(please note fic links are to Ao3, and fics are locked to be visible to registered users only!)

Ongoing Fics:

Oh, Lonely Bones, Have You Forgotten? (M, 31.9k, ch. 3/4, Charles/Edwin)

A haunting little odyssey of Edwin finding his earthly remains, and figuring out where the hell to go from there. Was hoping to finish this off before the year was out but pain and other projects sadly got in the way! Don't worry, she will be complete one day, I swear!

Somewhere Beyond the Sea (T, 7k, ch 1/5, Charles/Edwin)

A sweet and magical Payneland Ponyo AU, written originally as a Secret Santa gift and then ballooning WAY out of proportion! I'm so, so excited for how this one turns out!

One-shots:

The Kind of Light That Means Just Love (When My Baby Smiles at Me) (T, 1.4k, Charles/Edwin)

Where it all began, a little ficlet I wrote based on a writing group prompt which made me realised how much fun the character voices were to play with. Short and sweet, Charles takes photos of Edwin and finds ways to be cheerful about it even when he doesn't show up in them.

Outside Looking In (T, 3.6k, Charles/Edwin)

Outsider POV fic in which Charles and Edwin are overhead having a very strange but sweet conversation while in their older disguises. While this was an early fic and there's probably some stuff I'd change about the dialogue if I wrote it now, I'm so fond of it and I'm touched by the response to it - ESPECIALLY in the form of Robin's incredible gifset! (this gifset MUST be reblogged by everyone, btw.)

The Scenic Route (T, 2.1k, Charles/Edwin)

A short, sweet little agency outing and Payneland get-together, written in large part to daydream of a better world of public transportation while I was stuck standing on a cross-country train for two hours.

No Rehearsing It, No Reversing It (T, 9.3k, Charles/Edwin)

Mandatory 'Charles massively overthinks getting together with Edwin' fic, a comedy of errors, featuring foiled kissing schemes, party games, flimsy excuses, and my first fateful foray into discovering how fun Cat King is to write.

’Cause You Cut Through All the Noise (M, 5.3k, Charles/Edwin)

First day of Payneland week, what a time! Edwin helps Charles calm down from a panic spiral with a healthy application of sweet, gently non-sexual dom/sub play, featuring sweet words and soothing games of cat's cradle.

Though We're Strangers 'Til Now (T, 4.7k, Charles/Edwin)

Payneland week day 2. One of my more out-there concepts; in the campy tradition of Saturday night British fantasy telly a la Merlin or Atlantis, Charles and Edwin take the mythological roles of Theseus and Ariadne. This fic exists in large part due to @every-moment-a-different-sound making me aware of Payneland week and asking me to collaborate, and once again, it is COMPULSORY that you go and reblog their GORGEOUS SHOWSTOPPING INCREDIBLE GIFS.

I Got Sunshine in a Bag (T, 1.2k, Charles/Edwin)

Payneland week day 3. The little script-format fic where (spoiler alert) Charles confesses his feelings to Edwin in the safe haven of his own magical bag of tricks. Sweet and silly!

Something I Can Turn To (T, 2.4k, Charles/Edwin)

Payneland week day 4. The AU where Charles and Edwin are alive in the same era, and helped each other survive the brutality of their teenage years. This one was so lovely to write and there's a little bittersweet hollow in my heart carved out for it. This fic also spawned this absolutely lovely art by @yasartmeme (GO REBLOG, GIVE IT LOVE) and a collection of related stories by several wonderful authors. Every time someone else dips their toe into this universe it warms my chilly little heart.

If the Shoe Fits, Then I Won’t Try It On (T, 2k, Charles/Edwin)

Payneland week day 5. Another outing with the disguises; pre-canon, Charles and Edwin on a case, getting used to their new magic disguises and constructing dubious backstories.

Spinning on That Dizzy Edge (M, 1k, Charles/Edwin)

Payneland week day 6. Short little flirty, steamy, fun date night with Charles and Edwin in a haunted pub, with a piano <3

Lived My Whole Life Before the First Light (M, 7.3k, Charles/Edwin)

Payneland week day 7. AKA the attic scene, as told in a soulmate AU. A few people who don't generally like soulmate AU's have told me this one plays with the concept in a way they found interesting and refreshing! Suffice it to say there's a happy ending, but not of the sort generally associated with the genre. And this one comes with yet another mandatory-reblog gifset, this one by @mellxncollie, which is SO beautiful and should be in an art gallery and truly such an honour to bestow upon my little words 💛

We Glimpse Each Other Out of Phase (T, 3.7k, Charles/Edwin)

Another little instalment in the Alive AU of Something I Can Turn To, this time a bittersweet domestic scene on a sleepless night in the kitchen.

Wise Men Build Their Houses on Rocks While the Rest of Us Settle for Skeletons (M, 2.2k, Cat King/Edwin)

First foray into Catwin! (or at least first on the main account 😉) Edwin digs through the Cat King's magical artifacts; and finds an ominous relic of his past lives.

Sink Your Teeth Right Through My Bones, Baby (M, 0.6k, Charles/Edwin)

First of the spotify wrapped inspired ficlets! A little glimpse into Edwin's mind as he and Charles cautiously approach a new dynamic in the bedroom.

Looks Like We’re In for Nasty Weather (T, 0.6k, Charles/Edwin)

Wrapped ficlet. Edwin and Charles brace themselves in the face of an ominous supernatural storm brewing.

Keep Me Warm, Love Me Long, Be My Sunlight (T, 1k, Cat King/Edwin/Charles)

Wrapped ficlet, and preview of the Ghostcat 1920s AU currently in the works by myself, @dear-monday and @tw0-ravens! In a sun-drenched loft in the last days of summer, Thomas contemplates what he has, and when he'll lose it.

Should I Cool It, or Should I Blow? (M, 1.9k, Cat King/Charles)

Wrapped ficlet. The Cat King confronts Charles after another little enemies-with-benefits hook-up for a little clarification on what, exactly, he's doing with his life.

And that about wraps it up for 2024! But I'll keep adding underneath this post when I inevitably write more -- so I'll be seeing you guys in '25! 🥰 Thank you thank you THANK YOU everyone who's shown me such incredible support over this year, this has been such an unbelievably fun fandom experience and I'm excited to sink my teeth into even more and longer fics next year 💛💛💛

My 2024 Writing Stats:

Works Published: 19 Word Count: 89,859 Top 3 fics (by kudos): 1. Outside Looking In 2. No Rehearsing It, No Reversing It 3. The Scenic Route

2025 One-Shots:

Third Contact of a Brief, yet Significant Eclipse (M, 4.2k, Cat King/Edwin)

A spin-off/prequel fic set in the universe of Wunderkammer by dear_monday and two_ravens! A bittersweet little scene at the tail end of museum curator!Edwin's dalliance with the Cat King; a torrid affair which lasted the duration of the 1960s.

Bet Was Made, I Kneeled and Prayed (and Went Off Like a Shotgun) (M, 2.5k, Cat King/Charles)

Wrapped fic, the last of them. Charles and the Cat King enjoy a bit of fun, fighty, no-strings messing around; and the Cat King comes away with more feelings than he bargained for.

Now featuring gorgeous and heartbreaking gifs courtesy of Olly, who simply never misses 💛💛💛💛💛

Darling, This Place is a Lover's Oasis

(M, 1.4k, Cat King/Edwin)

Valentine's fic; Edwin gets some much-deserved pampering courtesy of Cat King and his ridiculous 1970s oversized bathtub.

Evay QA Bulk Post 7 - Domino & Phlox Masterpost

Hey everybody! I am so happy you've been enjoying my take on Sonic's parents, my OCs Domino and Phlox! If you want to learn more about them that wasn't covered in "The Sonnet of Domino & Phlox," I have more info (including your questions and headcanons) below!

DOMINO

Dream Voice Actor: Aimee Carrero [x] [x] [x]

Theme Songs: "Wonderland" by Kalandra and "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba

PHLOX

Dream Voice Actor: Nathan Fillion [x] [x] [x] [x]

Theme Songs: “Better Things” by The Bouncing Souls (The original is by The Kinks, but I think this cover suits Phlox more) and “All Will Be Well” by Gabe Dixon

PHLOXINO PLAYLIST

QUESTIONS

Anon asked: I love your Sonic parents💙💙 Where did you get the idea for their names?

A: I'm so happy you like them! I try to include symbolism in the names I choose for my characters. Domino's name has two meanings. The main reason is in reference to "The Domino Effect." Her brief meeting with Phlox would --unbeknownst to either of them-- lead to the world's greatest hero! Secondly, I chose the name because life repeatedly knocks her down, but she does her best to get back up! Phlox's name comes from the purple flower. The Phlox flower symbolizes "unity/harmony/partnership" and can be given to someone to mean "We think the same" or "our souls are united." If you really dig deep into the mythology of the flower, it's said to "affect well-being and is a source of creativity and positive thoughts." Phlox is meant to be a perfect compliment to Domino, and together their love for the planet and positive outlook on life would be woven into the DNA of the bright ray of sunshine we know as Sonic.

midnightfire1222 asked: So where did Sonic get his trademark speed from? Phlox or Domino?

and Anon also asked: In your AU is there a reason behind Sonic’s abilities? Did his parents have that “gene” in them or something like that? Also, I remember you posted your vision about Amy’s parents as well, I know it’s unrelated but I’d like to ask if you could tell us what happened with them, because as I understand Amy is also an orphan in your AU. Thank u, I love your art <3

A: I like to think that Sonic's speed is purely a genetic mutation (a "gift"), not something he inherited from a family member. Domino is a "speed type" as far as class goes, but neither of them are remotely on Sonic's level. As far as Amy's parents (Clay and Lulu), I originally had them as deceased in my AU, but I've recently changed my mind on that! They are alive, but are not prominently involved in Amy's life. You will see more of them soon~ 😉🦔👰💍🦔🤵

@skywriter97 asked: I know she's a wanderer/nomad, but how long would Domino typically stay in one place? Would that change as she gets further in her pregnancy with Sonic?

A: Domino would never stay in one place more than a week. When she gets further along in her pregnancy, she gets kind of 'stuck' on Christmas Island and just waits it out there. As much as she enjoys her journeys, she'd know it's not worth the risk traveling while in the third trimester.

@skywriter97 also asked: If Phlox had been around, would he have been able to convince Domino that maybe remaining in a place would be a good idea because of the baby? Would he have tried?

A: Phlox doesn't get the chance, but he would have wanted to go on journeys WITH Domino. He would have liked the opportunity of enhancing her (their) way of life, not drastically changing it. Instead of staying in one place and building a traditional home, he would have instead worked on securing them a caravan of sorts, something along the lines of a Vardo wagon or a covered wagon (but maybe something that is powered so he doesn't have to pull it all the time ((though he's certainly strong enough lol))). That way they could remain on the road as long as they wanted and were still technically 'outdoors' at all times, but were always guaranteed shelter and a means of travel.

yama3002 asked: Did sonic or Amy or even Aurora wondered who is sonic parents ?

A: Amy and Aurora would definitely be curious. Because Sonic is all about living in the present and not focusing on the past, I don't believe he would be too concerned about knowing who his parents are/were. In my AU he has no memory of his early years so for all he knows, he just appeared on Christmas Island.

And anon asked: In your AU, does Aurora ever get curious about Sonics parents and ask him? I think you said he repressed that memory from the trauma and doesn’t remember anything - how would that conversation go? Does he ever get sad thinking about why he was abandoned or why he has no memory of them?

A: Like I said above, I really don't think Sonic troubles himself by worrying about these things. He doesn't know what it's like to have parents and so he doesn't know what he's missed out on, but he's also loved his life so he has no reason to complain. As far as why he doesn't remember them, I think that's too heavy of a topic for him to want to explore (hence, blocking out the trauma). Ignorance is bliss, right? If Aurora asked who his mom and dad are, I think he'd just be like "I don't have any, but that doesn't mean I don't have family! I've got your Uncle Tails, your Uncle Knuckles, my wife --aka yo' mama!-- and I have you! What more could I want?"

umi-teardrop asked: Does Phlox still loves Damino and will he ever realize Sonic is his son?

A: Though they didn't get to spend much time together and they don't use the word "love" until the epilogue of The Sonnet, yes I would say Phlox will always love her. At this time I'm undecided if he will canonically (to my AU) learn about Sonic being his son, but if I were to do that I know how I'd want them to find out (I write about it below!). Of course I'm open to y'all imagining that realization however you want, too!

bow-and-aro-child asked: I saw your interpretation of Sonic's parents and I CARE THEM very much!! Anyway, hypothetically, if Phlox (Sonic's dad; i hope i spelled that right) were to ever find out Sonic was his, how do you think that would play out? And how would that reunion go?

Anon also asked: Anon asked: No chance of Phlox and Sonic finding out their connection? Eggman trying a new dna targeting formula in his robots instead of Chao signature or movement detection and it instantly locking onto Phlox like a dog on a bone

A: If you've read The Sonnet, you learn that Phlox managed to take a photograph of Domino before she leaves. He cherishes that photo and considers it his magnum opus, so even after years have passed and he's never been able to find her, he always includes that photo of her in his exhibitions (never for sale, though!). I like to think that one day Amy convinces Sonic to go to a gallery for a date, and when Sonic sees the photo of Domino it reawakens his memories of her. Keep in mind, this would be a pretty intense moment for Sonic. I think it would be difficult for him to make this discovery on his own, but with Amy I think she would help him get through it. While they're having a discussion about her/the photograph, I think that's where Phlox would come in and be like "You knew her?? Can you tell me where she is? I'd love to talk to her, I have so much I want to say!" Then that would lead to some heavy conversations and then from there that's where they all put two-and-two together. It would be a very intense, heavy series of realizations haha. But just like I said above, I'm always interested in however y'all think things would play out, too. To the anon who wrote about Eggman: Now THAT is a fun idea! I didn't even think about Eggman being the one to accidentally make this discovery, but I do like it!

Anon asked: Will Sonic ever un-repress the memories of his mom?

A: I would like for him to do that, but that would be much later in his adult life when he's got the support of his family to help him get through it. I don't think he can handle that emotional trauma alone, especially before he's gotten more in touch with his feelings. I described above how I personally see it going down.

hedgethemaze asked: I was wondering, in the alternative chance that Domino would've told him about being pregnant with Sonic, what would've been Phlox reaction?

A: Phlox would have been absolutely delighted! It would be nerve-wracking to learn that they're going to essentially be teen parents and life on the road is difficult enough as it is. But Phlox would have been over the moon happy!

faythwasfound asked: Would you ever draw a what if of domino if she lived and possibly her relationship to other characters besides sonic like tails, Amy or aurora?

and cop16461 also asked: Surely a Granny Domino au can exist right :pleading_face:

A: I've received a lot of interest in this and in fact, I made myself so sad while writing their story, that I ended up deciding to make an ALTERNATE-alternate universe where Domino stayed with Phlox and everything is happy hahaha. Anything that falls under that AAU will all be tagged under the #PhloxinoAAU tag.

atwas-meme-ing asked: So, I take it, in your other AU, Phlox and Domino stayed together because Phlox actually did ask Minnie to let him travel with her? Or somehow or other found some way of following her?

A: It was really important to me while writing the Sonnet to make it clear that it was both Domino and Phlox who made the mistake of not pursuing each other. Phlox should have spoken up, but equally Domino should have been willing to voice her concerns so he could prove his trustworthiness. For the #PhloxinoAAU, I would have it not only that Phlox would manage to say that line he had been rehearsing of why he got the backpack (so he could travel with her), but also then have Domino be willing to talk about her feelings and trust him to come with her. The two of them being willing to openly communicate would result in the happiest ending.

graciethemonsterartist asked: In your PhloxinoAAU, if Domino did perhaps stay with Phlox in the end and raised Sonic together as parents, what would their relationship be? Like would they get married when they found out that Domino is pregnant or would they simply stay together without tying the knot but still happily together? And if they do get married, what kind of wedding would it be? More importantly, what would Phlox reaction be when he founds out that he’s going to be a dad and finding out that his son has super Sonic speed? Lastly, in both scenarios where Domino stays and doesn’t stay. What gave her the idea to name Sonic, well Sonic?

A: Domino is not interested in marriage so she and Phlox would never legally "tie the knot." But they would be romantic partners in every sense of the word and would be very happy living their lives together and dedicating themselves to one another and to their son. Haha, finding out your son has super speed is pretty shocking and makes things pretty challenging, but just like what you see in the Epilogue of the Sonnet, I think Domino (and Phlox) would have found ways to make games to tucker him out and help him burn off his energy in more manageable ways hahaha! As far as his name, it seems that many of the Sonic character names are related to their powers or their purpose, so I almost think their kind must have an instinct for what powers their child may have or what they may end up looking like. At least, that's my headcanon for where the name Sonic came from. Maybe he was just kicking extra fast while she was still pregnant with him!

Anon asked: This probably isn't going to ever happen, but if Phlox and/or Sonic figured out they were related?

A: Phlox would definitely want to learn as much as he could about Sonic as possible and would absolutely want a relationship with him, but he would have to be careful to take it at Sonic's pace. He remembers how sometimes when he would push Domino for information or to talk about feelings, she would put up a wall; Sonic is the same way (though in his adulthood, I have Sonic being better about talking about his feelings). You also have to remember that Sonic doesn't focus on the past and he's had a great life without any parents, so I don't think he'd be overly eager to get to know this guy who is supposedly his dad. But ultimately, the two of them are great guys with a super positive outlook on life, so it's my preference that they would be able to end up having a positive relationship and end up being very close. Better late than never!

Anon asked: Does Sonic's Dad ever meet his granddaughter Aurora?

A: Whether Phlox ever learns that Sonic is his son or not, I like the idea of the two of them crossing paths often so he would have met Aurora at least on one occasion if not more.

theneedlemouseconnection asked: I can't stop thinking about Domino and Phlox! I wonder, what if Domino liked to be an early riser and left before Phlox woke up, but left him a note that he's kept all these years? And deep down, looking back, he wishes he hadn't been so promiscuous and had settled down with HER. And he doesn't know she drowned, so he keeps the letter in the hopes that someday they'll bump into each other again? And this is a HUGE what-if, but, what if, somehow, Phlox runs into his son at Domino's grave, finds out what happened from a mourning Sonic (poor boy 😭), and decides to GIVE HIM DOMINO'S LETTER. Just my random thoughts, because I'm obssessing over Sonic's parents now adkhskdjj

A: theneedlemouseconnection You asked me this question before I published the final chapter of The Sonnet of Domino & Phlox and you were so on to me, haha! Kudos to you! If you've read the story, you'll have found that Domino does leave a simple message in his favorite notebook. He keeps it forever. I'm so happy you like them!

cop16461 asked: Would Phlox ever begin to question any resemblances that sonic has to him? Would he try to find domino again and find out she passed?

A: Personally I find it more funny to have Sonic and Phlox completely oblivious to how similar they look and laugh. The thought would never cross Phlox's mind hahaha. Phlox has never stopped looking for Domino, even as his life has changed and he's progressed in his career and all that, he's always held on to a glimmer of hope that she's still out there and that they'll cross paths again. He wouldn't know that she died unless Sonic revealed that to him.

bloglover99 asked: What does Domino and Phlox think of Amy Rose a girl of Sonic dreams or their future daughter-in-law?

A: Domino and Phlox would LOVE Amy! There is some sonamy foreshadowing in the Epilogue of The Sonnet, where even before Sonic has met Amy, Domino makes him promise to keep (her) safe and never let (her) go. They both would love Amy's fiery spirit and her passion and her love for others, but especially her love for their son. If both Domino and Phlox were still in the picture, I think they would have helped Sonic to work through his feelings sooner.

Anon asked: I’m not sure if you’ve been ask this, but if Sonic and Amy’s parents were to meet each other, how do you think that scene would play out?

A: Unfortunately, Domino and Lulu would not get along at all haha 😅 They are complete and total opposites. Lulu loves the finer things in life and is materialistic and glamorous and superficial, whereas Domino rejects every single one of those things. However, I think Phlox and Clay would get along. They're both rugged in different ways and they're both gaga for their gals, so as long as their wives weren't fighting they would probably enjoy getting a beer together.

monkeyqueen2012 asked: How would Domino react to her granddaughter? Or her (8!) great grandchildren?

A: Domino would just adore Aurora! I could see them having camp outs under the stars and Aurora being absolutely captivated by all of Domino's stories. I have some PhloxinoAAU drawings with baby Aurora that I want to explore for sure! 😍 I also think Domino would be a good influence as far as Sonic's parenting and she would encourage him to give Aurora more space to explore and live a little more dangerously, so Aurora wouldn't have as much of a sheltered upbringing as she does in my main AU. I don't know that Domino would still be around to see all of her 8 great grandchildren, but that would really be something 💙 To be someone who had absolutely nobody and no family, to then having a gigantic family, all because of you? I think that'd make her heart soar!

YOUR HEADCANONS

Many of you have told me your headcanons for these two and I wanted to include them so others could read them, too!

pellet-the-cat said: Not an ask, but I have the headcanon that Aurora has Domino's laugh, and everytime Sonic hears it, it makes him reminisce of the times with his Mom, feeling like she would be just proud of her graddaughter as Sonic is proud of her.

A: That is so SWEET! I love that headcanon! I picture Aimee Carrero as the voice of Domino, and I can see her laugh being appropriate for both Domino AND Aurora, so I think that totally works! Plus, that encourages Sonic to focus on the positive memories instead of just the bad.

middlechildwhoescapedthebasement said: What if Domino discovered Sonic's super speed because she tried putting pants on him? Like she just thought "I wonder if he likes pants like his dad?" She just merely held up the pants next to Sonic, blinked, and the next thing she knew he's up a TREE. (Apologies if this is too ooc, I just thought it'd give you a chuckle hopefully)

A: This cracked me UP! Oh my god I love that so much, this made me laugh! And I think it's very in-character for the both of them haha. Headcanon accepted!

emceevoices said: A little idea I thought of: I've heard that flash floods only exist due to manmade disruptions to the environment, such as dams and redirecting rivers. What if the flash flood that took Domino's life was caused (unintentionally, mind you,) by a dam set up by a young, budding scientist who was simply studying the environment for new energy sources and techniques. The young man's name? Dr. Ivo Robotnik.

A: @emceevoices, that's just EVIL! 😮😈 I do have a reference to a younger Eggman in The Sonnet, but I didn't even consider him being the cause of the flood! How very clever (and terrible!)

thegreenbomber-blog1 said: Imagine Amy meeting Phlox by hugging him thinking that he’s Sonic like in SA2 and 06, but unknowingly meeting her future father-in-law.

A: I normally don't like that old gag of Amy mistaking everyone for Sonic, but this one made me laugh! I mean, this is the one scenario where it would make perfect sense!

chrismantike said: Now this is a scenario I thought of what if a few years after aurora’s birth sonic gets a jolt and sees a fragment of a memory with his mom from something like playing in the park but he of course brushes this off and thinks it was just weird vision, but he does think about who that woman was and why she felt familiar when reminiscing about it in bed

A: This is definitely very possible! I like that it's a positive memory that is triggered, too, instead of just an awful one.

jasminearce03 said: For the Sonic Bday prompt. Since his birthday is close enough to Father's day, what about his biological Dad giving him a present coincidentally on his birthday and something like "If I ever had a son, I wish he couldbeas free as you are." All the while thinking of that girl he loved. Idk if it conflicts with your storyline or not just thought it was a cute idea.

A: You submitted this when I was asking for Sonic bday ideas, but I loved it so much I wanted to include it here! This warms my heart and breaks it at the same time. Thank you for sharing!

skywriter97 said: I know it'll never happen prob (except in my imagination) but imagine the DRAMA if Phlox and Sonic were to ever learn they're father and son. I just imagine Phlox being so HEARTBROKEN that he missed his son's life and wasn't there for him but at the same time SO PROUD of the Hero and person Sonic's become imma go cry in a corner now 😢 💔 😭

A: It means so much to me that their story touched you! Phlox would be so devastated to know how much he's missed out on because he would have loved to have been a part of Sonic's life. But I couldn't agree with you more: he'd be proud of who Sonic is now and grateful that he ended up the way he did, regardless of their pasts.

Anon said: Hello, I like your work and the story about Sonic and Domino, its ending broke my heart about Domino's death and how Sonic, in order to be well, had to forget her. It also made me think that Sonic, rather than forgetting Domino, tries not to think about her too much because of the pain and because it is less sad for me than Sonic forgetting his mother.

A: I totally get that and I don't blame you for thinking that :) I only chose that Sonic suppresses his memories (unintentionally) because Sonic tends to run away from his problems and this seemed like an appropriate trauma response for him. But you can absolutely have this headcanon, I support it!

I just caught up on grinning shadow, and I feel the need to long form ramble because I love it!

So, with the post-season 5 healing process, I feel like MK's is the least explored so far. The core of his identity crisis is 'everything' about him being connected to Wukong and Mac, so he chooses to pack up and leave it all behind while he discovers himself. With that in mind, he would probably be the most awol of the monkie kid cast.

Im curious what his process is like. I could totally see him full on leaving to become a traveling hero in other parts of the world for some of those years. So far that Wukong and the Journey couldn't possibly affect things. Like full on finding other lands and mythologies to adventure in. Making his own adventures to sort of build a whole new identity for himself. But that begs the questions of what sort of adventures lead to what sort of growth and change? What new people would he bring into his life to be his own? Etc.

And he obviously wouldn't fully stay away from the cast, probably makes rare visits or invitations when he needs Mei or Red Son. But even they are rooted in his connection to Wukong, so they could only do so much for his healing. Especially with Red Son only being in his life because of the staff, complicating his already confusing feelings (yay romantic angst to slow the burn) and then you add that Mei is also helping his sisters, and it becomes a 'she has enough emotional weight lifting on her plate' to MK's mind.

I'd bet he is actually the longest one to get on board for when they finally visit wukong (not the hardest to convince, that being the sisters, but takes the most time) because not only would he be there so less often, making him the least aware of a problem, but for his crisis, reconnecting the family would be like stepping back into that world and identity, so he would have to be the furthest along his recovery before being able to join them.

Then you get into how the cast feel about him leaving. His dads and uncle Sandy probably take it best because, honestly, they know he's healing and he's grown to 'leave the nest'. For Wukong it's probably numb pain, because it's reaffirming his 'better off without me' crisis. The sisters would likely be hella conflicted. Senses of abandonment mixing with guilt, but they also have their own healing to focus on. Red Son is of course cursed to an even slower burn romance with ling distance relationship thrown in, but i bet he is the one mk contacts most without even realizing it. The ones most hurt would probably be Mei and Mac. Mei would HATE the fact that she couldn't fully help carry the weight with her best friend, and miss him the most. She may even occasionally get angry at him when she's especially low or lonely (though she would never let him see that qhen he is around, and be guilty at herself later) And then poor Mac may feel guilty about creating him into so much pain, but could never regret it at the same time. And he wants his kids, but is scared to be around them. and all that complexity would have nowhere to release, because MK would be avoiding him too! Even his nicest kid 'wants nothing to do with him' (or so his brain says) It could even be the sisters who get them to meet again after their reconciling with Mac (like, "Bro, go see dad already!")

Sorry for the long ask, but THIS IS WHAT YOUR AMAZING TALENT HAS DONE TO MY BRAIN!

Am I in the general ball park for MK's identity crisis, or were you imagining something totally different?

Yeah that's pretty on point for what MK's going through, with a hefty does of body dysmorphia and discomfort because this is what he looks like:

He looks like someone tried to make his sisters from memory, which is what happened, Macaque was subconsciously recreating his cubs when he was making MK, he's literally a replacement for them.

That's great for the psyche!

And then he's dealing with the fact that he literally can not escape Wukong because the Monkey King is everywhere, fucking everywhere, he's even in Scooby Doo! I'm not even joking, he gets a cameo in Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated.

I hadn't really thought about how he gets onto better terms with his family (sans Wukong) until now, but having Bai He and Chao-Xing be the ones to facilitate it would be nice, and a way for them to sort of apologize for all the shit they did to him by trying to help him get better, they're not the greatest at feelings but they are trying their best.

And they can help him realize that he is his own person and more than he was intended to be, he's not a replacement, he's MK, their baby brother. They're going to be insufferable big sisters.

Thank you for this wonderful ramble! I'm so glad you like my au so much 🥰

Taglist:  @soobin-chois

“Ceeerbeeeruuus~” She called as she came down the stairs to the grand entrance of the underworld.

“I told you not to call me that, goddess.” Hyunjin growled as she came into his line of sight.

She pouted, “And I told you to call me Y/N, but if you aren’t going to listen, then why should I?”

Hyunjin scoffed at her, leaning against the stone wall beside the gate. He shook his head, letting the fiery red strands block his face from her. “Yours is a matter of station, not preference.”

It was who she was—a chthonic nymph, the Bringer of Nightmares and Madness, daughter of Persephone and Zeus, the goddess of the restless undead and propitiation, Goddess Melinoë, wanderer of the Earth, Y/N. As much as he wanted to disregard all that she was, he never could without repercussions.

Her hand gripped his chin, tilting his face back up to her own. He had no idea when she moved over to him; the nymph was always silent on her feet. A perk, he supposed, since she was a being of undeath. It certainly helped when she was parading all of her lost souls at night and scaring the locals.

Y/N’s eyes found Hyunjin’s icy ones. “What’s the matter, Hyun?”

He rolled his eyes and jerked away from her grip, glancing to the doors. “Nothing, god– Y/N.” He added in a whisper at her glare.

She reached up, hesitantly, and brushed his bangs behind his ear. There was no telling how he’d react when he was like this. He’d either bend to her will or snap at her and send her scampering to her room.

It was who he was—the guard “dog” of hell, Cerberus, a man with a split soul, Hyunjin. He couldn’t help it when he was like this. He couldn’t help when his anger clouded his mind from anything else.

To her immense pleasure, though, as her hand glided through his silky strands, the hair shimmered and blonde was left in its wake.

“Take a break, Hyun…” she whispered.

“You know I can’t,” he whined, pushing his head harder against where she was still petting him.

She cooed at her puppy. “No one will know… Just come by my room for a while? You need to relax.”

“I want to; I really do… But what if Hades notices?” Hyunjin pouted, eyes rounder than they had been before and lips plumper.

Y/N, on the other hand, was scowling at the god’s name. “Let me handle my fa– Hades. If he even finds out.”

Hyunjin frowned at her displeasure and leaned off the wall. He wrapped his arms around his goddess’s waist and nuzzled against her neck, only stopping and pulling away when he felt her demeanor relax against him.

  It had been like that for eons. Since Y/N was the offspring of Persephone and Zeus, Hades held a particular dislike for his step-daughter. It wasn’t her fault though. She didn’t ask to be born. No one was to blame but Zeus himself. He had disguised himself as his brother just to sleep with his brother’s wife. Typical.

Still… Hades saw Y/N as a reminder of that and treated her as such. She was sure if it weren’t for her mother’s loving heart, she would’ve been cast out of the underworld. Hades tolerated Y/N for his wife’s sake, nothing more. And, in return, Y/N grew to treat her step-father (slash uncle) with the same “respect” that she received.

What could she say, she was her mother’s daughter… A spiteful one at that.

Her feud with Hades did bear one good thing, though.

A beautiful relationship with Cerberus.

Cerberus was not as the stories told. Or, well… Not quite.

He saw himself as a beast, a monster, and so that is what the mortals saw him as, as well. But, in reality, Hyunjin was a man with a shattered soul. Cursed to immortality and split into three: love, desperation, rage.

Hades saw an opportunity and ran with it. He captured Hyunjin’s souls and chained him (metaphorically) to the gates of hell. He was bound to the king’s will and forced to guard the underworld entrance for eternity.

He loathed Hades for imprisoning him.

Something which he bonded greatly with Y/N over.

“Please, Hyun?” Y/N whispered, breaking his silence and regaining his attention. “I have something important I want to talk with you about… Something private.”

Hyunjin’s gaze traveled from her eyes to the thick chains and locks on the gate. When his eyes remet hers, he gave a subtle nod. “I’ll see you this evening, goddess.”

Lips downturning ever-so-slightly, Y/N understood. She nodded and gave a small bow before turning to head to her room.

With her soft, loving stare no longer on him—her warmth no longer in his presence—Hyunjin’s hair faded once more from blonde to hellfire red.

🎃

As Hyunjin approached her room, he felt himself tensing.

His goddess and he often found themselves alone, but he had never strayed from his post. Not more than a few yards anyway.

Sometimes Y/N would coax him to settle into a nook with her and chat. Other times, she would find him at hell’s doors with paints and canvases in tow to distract him.

If she was busy with her own godly duties, she would bring him books to keep him busy during the many, many hours of the day.

His favorite times were when she would forego meals with her family to eat with him instead. She always shared her fruits with him, and would even sneak sushi back from the mortal realm since it was his favorite.

Once in a while, she had been unable to rest, coming to sit by his side in the dead of night—silence surrounding them—until she drifted back off to sleep.

The first time that had happened, she had slouched against him, looking very un-goddess-like with her mouth open a little and brow furrowed. When he had tried to readjust, Y/N had grumbled and clung to him.

He knew he was a goner then.

He would sooner die than let anything take his goddess away from him. It wasn’t for another fifty years or so that he realized she felt the same way. But once feelings had been reciprocated, their relationship had flourished.

And yet… He had still never been to her room.

He had never dared to defy his orders.

It wasn’t out of respect for Hades. No. It was for fear that if he disobeyed, the king would punish Hyunjin by taking his goddess away.

So why was he putting her at risk now? Why allow her to convince him that this night was worth it?

It had been something in her eyes. The way she had been so insistent to have him just “take a little break.”

She had never suggested something like that before.

Sure, she would bring things to him to help him destress; she would grace him with her presence to help him relax; she would dote on him to help him unwind.

But always at the gate.

Y/N knew the consequences that Hyunjin could face for abandoning his post. So for her to insist on him coming by her room then there was something she needed to tell him within the confines of her own protective wards.

Something Hades could not know about.

“Hyun,” Y/N breathed, opening the door. As their eyes met, his red hair, tinged with a hint of black, lightened. “Come in…” She led him into her room, to a small sitting area by her fireplace. “I’m sorry if I startled you… I could hear you pacing.”

Hyunjin’s lips parted into a sorry smile, but he moved towards Y/N for an embrace regardless. “I was nervous about what you needed to say privately to me.”

“Is that what this is about?” Y/N questioned, reaching up to curl a lock of black hair around her finger.

“Ah…” Hyunjin grimaced. “That was more the thought that you might be ending our relationship…”

His eyes met hers seriously, questioningly, and watered. His hair darkened once more, losing the bits of blonde that had appeared with his love for her, and the inky red—a mixture of his desolation at the thought of losing her and permanent anger at their predicament—took over once more.

Y/N tutted. “I have no plans in ending our relationship, Hyun. Actually… What I needed to discuss with you is quite the opposite…” Hyunjin’s head tilted, and she continued. “When you first explained to me about how you were… trapped. I started doing some research…”

The goddess pulled Hyunjin to sit with her on the couch, gathering a large book from her side table to show him her centuries-old notes.

“The curse from your living days has kept your soul in fragments, divided by the three strongest emotions you felt at the time of your death. The… being that created that curse has long been destroyed, and unfortunately their knowledge along with it. And, without knowing the original parameters, putting your soul back together is… improbable.”

“I– I understand…” Hyunjin whispered, voice wobbling. “Honestly, once Hades found me, I never expected to be put back together anyway. I assumed I would always be this… mess. Monster.” He spat the last bit.

Y/N reached over to him, squeezing his hand in a moment of comfort. He smiled, albeit pitifully, and she continued with her news. “It’s not impossible for you to be whole, Hyun… There are just external forces that have to fill in the cracks.” Y/N sighed, “Technically that is what Hades did for you. He melded the shards of your soul together with underworld magic. He eternally bound you to his realm to serve him… And, I–”

She set the book back on the table, turning her body to bring both hands to hold Hyunjin’s shoulders. “I found a ritual… I’m not powerful enough to break my step-father’s magic, but I can alter it. I can… I can sever your chains to the underworld gates by tying you to another ‘object’ of the underworld, so to speak…”

“What?” Hyunjin whispered, but by the way she gazed over him with a sorrowful love, he already suspected he knew the answer.

“Myself.” Y/N shook her head, cutting off his objections. “I would bind my soul to the fragments of yours. Mine would become the glue holding yours together.”

“You’d be stuck with me forever.”

She smiled, leaning forward to place a gentle kiss on his pouty lips, hands entwining with his—now very blonde—locks. “I could think of no better eternity.”

Hyunjin, however, did not fully reciprocate her affection and gently pushed his goddess away. Y/N’s smile fell, pulling her hands away as well. “I’m sorry I couldn’t give you your freedom, Hyunjin… I tried to find something, anything. But if Hades created a key, he destroyed it long ago… This was the best solution I could come up with.”

“No, goddess,” Hyunjin grabbed Y/N’s fiddling hands, “This is more than enough.” He met her eyes seriously, “Yes, once I would’ve given anything for my independence. But now… All I want is the freedom to be with you… I just worry that you haven’t thought through the repercussions of this…”

Y/N snorted a laugh. “Hyunjin, trust me, I have. I want to spend the rest of my days with you, and after, if The Fates allow, we will be together in our next life as well. We would be bound together, come death and rebirth. I can think of nothing I want more.”

“Then… it would be my utmost pleasure to be bound to you, my goddess.”

With a somber nod, Y/N turned once more to the side table and retrieved a few items. She placed a small wooden bowl with a red string inside between them.

“I will ask this of you once more… Hwang ‘Cerberus’ Hyunjin, Hound of Hades and Guard of the Underworld, do you consent to binding our souls together. Entwining our fates for all eternity?”

“I do, goddess.”

“Please give me your hand.”

Silently, he held his hand to her. She took his hand carefully, caressing the soft skin before placing a light kiss on his palm. Y/N raised her small blade, slowly carving her ritual symbol into his palm.

Hyunjin couldn’t deny how his heart skipped a beat at the kiss, but it nearly stopped as the knife bit into his flesh. He desperately tried to bite back the whimper that he let out when his goddess began to literally carve herself into him.

But he couldn’t help himself and the smallest moan slipped between his plush lips, causing Y/N to hesitate before moving the blade to her own hand.

After another few, silent, moments she showed her palm where she carved his own symbol as well before grasping his palm in hers. Y/N’s eyes finally raised from their conjoined palms as their blood melded and dripped into the bowl, coating the string.

Once the cord had soaked and their hands had healed sufficiently, she withdrew her hold on him to tie the blood-bound string to them both. Her fingers moved deftly in tying a tight knot around his pinky and nodded for him to tie to the other end to her own finger.

His hands tied the knot a bit shakier than hers had but once he was done, Y/N leaned forward to rest her forehead against his.

“It is done…” She whispered, “You belong to me… with me. And I, you.”

Hyunjin glanced at the string in time to catch the ritual magic disintegrate into a red glimmer. The magic soaked into their bodies and highlighted their healing symbols, moving through their veins and into both of their hearts—their souls.

His lips split into a wide-smile, eyes becoming nothing more than crescents as he felt her within him. He felt her undying love for him; her loyalty and trust. He felt the warmth she always brought with her but took when she left… except a piece of it now resided in his own chest, never dissipating.

“Hyunjin,” she nearly panted. His eyes snapped open, his smile faltering at Y/N’s expression. If he was feeling her… was she feeling his soul as well? His love and… desperation for her. His eyes widened as hers darkened, a mischievous smile forming. “Maybe I should’ve chosen a collar for you instead of just a leash, hm? Is that what you want, puppy?”

Hyunjin froze, and when he didn’t answer, Y/N pressed on. “Oh come now… You have to be a good boy and tell me what you want. Show me what you want, puppy.”

He remained frozen for a moment more before she noticed him gulp and his gaze shifted back down to her hand—the one that would forever bear his symbol. His chin tilted upwards, baring his neck, and when she didn’t get the hint, he, ever so slowly, wrapped his slender fingers around her wrist and guided her hand to his neck.

As her own fingers fit against his throat, giving a light squeeze, Hyunjin continued to hold over her hand and hold her eyes as well, pleading. His gaze shifted, lowering his lids until his eyes held a teasing promise of passion, darker and hotter than the depths of hell. He broke her stare, eyes fluttering closed and mouth dropping open, when she truly tightened her grip around his neck.

Y/N tutted. “So that’s what you want then, puppy? You want me to be your collar.” She smirked while she pushed him to sit against the back of the couch, climbing to straddle his long legs. “You know… I can feel what you’ve felt in your soul for eons now. I can feel how desperate you’ve been for me.” She clicked her tongue, alternating between cutting off his blood flow and air supply and caressing his neck lovingly. “Have you touched yourself to the image of me? Made yourself a mess to the thought of what I could have done to you?”

Hyunjin whimpered. “I apologize… I couldn’t help myself. You’re so beautiful, goddess.”

She clenched around nothing, eyes fluttering for a moment, at the use of her normally formal title being used in such a… reverent manner.

“Please, goddess…” Hyunjin continued in a whiny pout, “Let me worship you.”

Y/N’s breath hitched imperceptibly, “Very well, puppy. Get on your knees and show me how much you adore me.”

Hyunjin nodded, eyes glazed and lips wet, as he stood from the couch and dropped to his knees in front of her. Without breaking eye contact, she shifted and spread her legs, raising the skirts of her dress and exposing her dripping cunt.

He leaned forward, nose tracing the inside of her thigh and nuzzling lightly against her pubic bone. “I’ve neglected you, goddess.”

“Should I punish you?” She quipped. Hyunjin’s eyes flew up to hers pleadingly. Hers was the only punishment he ever craved. “No, I think not tonight. Tonight we will worship one another; we will celebrate.”

The whispered promise of pleasure, in combination with the heavenly scent of his goddess just on the tip of his tongue, drew a deep, guttural groan from Hyunjin, eyes rolling back as well.

He waited for no further instruction, no need for pushing, and dove into her. A sharp gasp escaping her at the sudden feeling. Hyunjin, ever so pleased with himself, smirked against her lips before flicking her clit with his tongue.

Y/N’s head dropped back, lolling against the sofa, and she rocked her hips forward when he flattened his tongue. “Hyun… Oh my gods,” she moaned.

Sweat began to gather on her brow—her dress becoming suffocating—as Hyunjin continued to fuck her with his mouth. Her fingers found their way into his hair, tugging harshly on the black locks, when she felt him scissor two fingers into her.

Y/N exhaled slowly, a shudder racking her body while he alternated between sucking on her clit and dipping his tongue into her heat—all while his fingers diligently opened her up for him.

She was going to cum. She could feel it building, fire burning in her belly.

But she wasn’t done with him yet.

Y/N pulled him harshly by the hair, a pleasantly pitiful whimper escaping his lips as he lost contact with his treat.

“Hyunjin.” Y/N scolded as he growled and tried to pull her back to his mouth. He glared up at her, defying her. “Stop that, puppy. You did good, so so good. But I want something else…”

“Yes, my goddess?” Hyunjin’s eyes softened, his head cocking, “I will give you anything, anything to show you how much I adore you.”

“I want to fuck you,” she smirked, pushing him backwards with a foot so that she could gracefully stand from the couch. “All night, if you would like,” she added as she untied and let her dress pool at her feet.

Hyunjin’s eyes widened. He had hoped this might be where things would lead to after he received the depth of her feelings within his soul, but now that it was actually happening, he was shocked.

His gaze met her soft one and trailed down to her outstretched hand. Gently locking his fingers with hers, she helped him stand. Y/N reached up, brushing his own, rather sweaty, hair from his face and caressing his cheek.

She leaned up, placing a lingering kiss to his bottom lip, and whispered, “Come with me.”

He nodded slowly, allowing her to lead him to her bed. Y/N pushed his shoulders gently so that he sat on the edge. Hyunjin was dazed, already fucked out just from tasting her, and he struggled to keep his eyes open.

Anything she wanted, he would give it to her.

Y/N gently threaded her fingers through his hair, scratching the now-blackened roots, and delighted in the shiver that visibly racked his body.

Edged terribly, Hyunjin’s hips bucked forward at a particular tug of his locks. His eyes flew open, widening comically, and her own narrowed on his minute reactions.

He held himself too still, eyes flitting between her stare, her lips, and her thighs.

“Poor puppy…” She tsked, stepping forward to push one of her legs between his and subsequently pressing her delicious thigh against his painfully hard cock. “Just a dumb dog, needing something to hump.”

Hyunjin nodded pathetically, experimentally rolling his hips forward into her thigh. At the press of her warm skin, even against his clothing, Hyunjin felt himself fall fully; his midnight hair reflecting his deep need for his goddess, and only his goddess.

“Hyun, are you okay?” Y/N whispered teasingly, fingering the locks of black that had completely overtaken his blonde hair.

“Yes, please goddess, please continue.” He whined, continuing to rut against her lightly.

She clicked her tongue at him again, “Oh, puppy. You’re more desperate than I thought…”

“Yes…” Hyunjin leaned forward, trailing his lips across her bare stomach. His breath a warm whisper on her, “I’ve wanted you for centuries, my goddess.”

Not one to pass up an opportunity to tease him, Y/N began to pull away, “Only a want, a mere fleeting desire for me?”

“No, goddess! Please, I need you,” Hyunjin cried, swiftly pulling the goddess down and rolling over so that she was pinned beneath him. “I need you so badly. I’ll be a good boy… Please!”

In his begging, Hyunjin had failed to notice that he had begun to grind down against her wantonly. He winced at how hard and sensitive his clothed cock felt, rubbing against his goddess, but he continued regardless, delighting in the painfully pleasurable drag.

Y/N flexed her thigh, enjoying the hiss of appreciation that came from between his thick lips. “Alright, puppy. Let me show you then, what it means to be mine.”

Hyunjin nodded rapidly, almost making himself dizzy, and sat up to straddle her. She pulled on the fasteners of his pants to free his cock.

“So hard, puppy…” Y/N fake pouted as she rubbed a thumb over his weeping tip.

He whined. Loudly. And rutted into her palm, fucking himself with her hand. The faint roughness from the scar of his mark dragged down his shaft, eliciting pretty moans from him further.

Y/N guided him against her wet folds, the tip catching against her clit while he continued to rut, and coated him in her desire.

Finally– Finally.

She lined him with her entrance and gave him the permission he so desperately craved.

“Fuck me, Hyunjin. Be a good puppy, and fill. me. up.”

He pushed into her slowly. Not for any reason as to tease her or defy her orders or even to let her adjust, but because he simply needed to pace himself.

Hyunjin had only dreamed of being able to be with his goddess in this way. He wasn’t going to blow his chances by literally blowing too soon.

Y/N could tell he was struggling, and she grazed her hands up his covered torso, wrapping her arms around his neck. She pulled him to her, kissing him and swallowing the little whimpers he let out every time she—mostly—involuntarily clenched.

As a goddess she was expected to control herself, be in control of herself. But being surrounded by, filled with, Hyunjin made her weak.

Luckily—or not—for her, Hyunjin was just as uncontrolled. The desperation that consumed one of his soul fragments had grown and taken hold of him. And once he felt how warm and tight she was around him, he couldn’t help but snap his hips forward.

Hyunjin’s thrusts became erratic. He kissed her sloppily, movements becoming messier when she moaned and becoming harder when she whimpered.

He nipped down her jawline, biting down particularly hard on her jugular when she buried her nails into his back. When had her hands found their way under his tunic? He couldn’t think of anything else except how good, how right, it felt to be inside her. To fill her and claim her and be one with her.

Y/N felt herself peaking again, never having fallen too far from her own edge, and reached between her legs to rub her clit. Hyunjin might’ve been a bit sloppy, too caught up in his own pleasure, but the stretch of his cock in her was just too delicious to not finish her off.

“Good boy, Hyun,” she moaned in his ear. “Cum for me, in me, puppy. Become mine.”

She hadn’t even finished her words. At his goddess’s command to cum, he was spilling himself inside. Feeling the warmth flood her, Y/N arched herself as the pleasure blinded her, vision whiting out as if she had entered Olympus. She might’ve screamed or maybe that was just the ringing in her ears.

Hyunjin, eyes heavily lidded as he stared down at her, fucked her through her orgasm. And when she settled, he kissed gently around her neck and cheeks.

Y/N smiled, bringing her marked palm to his cheek, and kissed him deeply.

After a few, long, moments of breathing and gathering their bearings, the two readjusted in her bed. Silk and luxury surrounding them, nothing felt more comforting than each other’s arms.

“Hades is going to destroy us when he finds out what we’ve done.” Hyunjin finally spoke quietly into the darkness of her room.

“Good thing I have the fearsome Cerberus to protect me.” She teased, nipping at his collarbone.

“I’m serious, Y/N. I need you… I– I love you. I can’t have anything harming you.” Hyunjin squeezed her tighter to him.

“I love you too, Hyunjin. I swear to you, you will never lose me. I am eternally yours.” Y/N sighed, her heart full. “I don’t know what will happen with my step-father. But, you are mine now as I am yours. We will deal with whatever comes, together, in this life and the next.”

cat/cats/pretty kitty - self explanatory, it's just cat posts

cool art - also self explanatory (but has more overlap with fandom than the next tag)

for reference/reference for later - really cool art + medical, writing, and tech advice posts + writing/drawing ideas

lol/lmao - uh...just stuff i find funny?

free palestine - posts in support of a free Palestine! (zionists fuck off)

now for the fandom stuff...I won't add any tags for fandoms I have less than 15 posts in since most of those are ones I am no longer in (for instance, I haven't been into the dsmp since like, forever, so I've just deleted/privated the posts; also, in light of the not so recent news about Neil Gaiman, I probably won't post anything from the Sandman/Good Omens anymore although I respect the latter as also being sir Terry Pratchett's work--I will therefore not be adding it to the masterpost although the posts will still be in the archive)

sheer art attack - (riffing off of the Queen song lmao) art I really, really wanna look at again. and again. and again. and which might also give me an actual sheer heart attack

RSP - (regularly scheduled program post) queue tag

Original content (i.e. posted by me) won't be tagged with the '[media name] shtick' thing I've got going on--it'll use the regular tags you'd expect.
