Note
So people once were calling me a terf, persecuting me just because I held some different opinion. After taking a break from social media, I've did some thinking, and I've came to accept this label as a part of who I am. I identify, inside and out, within the fibers if my soul, as a terf, and anyone who objects to this is being criticalphobic. After a while though, being so enshrined with terfness started exposing to me the many issues and hypocrisies terfs have, which I started rejecting. I just remembered I left my pizza in the oven, its burning uh
Eventually I realized that by rejecting trans people from society, I was arbitrarily drawing a line between what a person participating in society could be, completely discounting all the possible ways our biology I've so long revered could betray the labels our ancestors placed on ourselves. I stopped excluding trans people and started exclusively rejecting normal feminists, making me a ferf, until I walked outside and accidently talked to a guy and found they were normal. With no one familiar to belong to, I gave in and joined feminists and became a rfet.
Anyways do you want to hear about the time I almost drowned in a public water fountain
and the oscar for "best supporting anonymous bait" goes to....... whatever the fuck this is
#this might low key be the best ask ive ever gottem#ty for the laugh anon#(the ask is very clearly a joke and i am posting it because it's funny#sending me more asks like this will not result in them getting posted tho#the joke has run it's course already)

Astrology Observations pt. 19
🕷️ Mutable moons need solitude / alone time. These people are introverts
🕷️ Capricorn ascendents w a Gemini 6H are great employees, but it’s nearly impossible for them to stay at one job for longer than a few years (or even less 👀)
🕷️ Everyone I know w a weak Mars placement or Mars in detriment have low spice tolerances & those who have a prominent Mars placement or an exalted Mars love spicy foods
🕷️ Fixed Mercuries run the music industry
🕷️ I swear Taurus placements are always late to everything lmao
🕷️ If you have Mercury square/conjunct/opposite Neptune in your chart, you need to be vocal & clear to others about what’s on your mind. Prone to misunderstanding- it’s in your best interest to get a second opinion, & be direct but civil when you feel wronged (bc there’s a high chance it’s not as bad as you’re thinking lol)
🕷️ Oppositely, ppl w their Mercury trine/sextile Neptune are so good at putting themselves in others’ shoes & seeing things from different perspectives. Excellent mediators !!
🕷️Capricorn placements: stop taking care of ppl financially just bc you care about them. Send a nice text or something 😭 (yea this is a self callout)
🕷️I could be biased but imo no one plays the victim like someone w Cancer or Libra placements
🕷️Libra & Cancer placements do be bad. tho. Literal ass & titties of the zodiac
🕷️Name me one fire sun woman that isn’t LGBTQ+ (impossible edition)
🕷️You’d think that ppl w 3H Mercuries would be good texters, but the ones I know either 1) forget to text back 2) stay on DND, or 3) prefer to call or FaceTime
🕷️ Aquarius Venus ppl are so fun to talk to, they’re all straight up clowns
🕷️ Someone w a 2H Chiron will literally go flat broke before they ask anyone for financial help. Their self esteem is strongly attached to their finances & material possessions so to be caught lacking in that area would be their worst nightmare
🕷️ As someone w Cardinal placements, Cardinal placements are so dramatic lmfao
🕷️ The Sagittarius Neptune generation (1970-1984) & all their escapist tendencies ☠️ whether it be drinking, dr*gs, traveling, gambling, working 24/7, or watching lots of TV..
🕷️ The Aquarius Neptune generation (1998-2011) & their internet activism :/ great in theory! But needs improvement. “Cancel culture” turned cyber-bullying, online desensitization, & “influencers” are some of the results from this generation. They might feel like an activist for posting on their story, but it will take more than that to create serious change

things enha does for you !
hey guys!!! after tha one last fic im back to soft content lolz. i got this idea when i was in class so excuse me if its crappy tho! this one is a lil smoll :')
make sure to leave feedback. my requests are open and so is my talk box so let's talk!
WARNINGS ! undertones of being naked and sunoo watching its all sfw so dont worry!! might contain grammar errors!
word count: 1k
LEE HEESEUNG !
— makes you homemade gifts
heeseung is pretty good at everything, so once in his life decides to make good use of it outside of his job.
heeseung loves giving you gifts, most of them expensive pieces of clothing or even random plushies he wins when he goes to the arcade with the other boys, but is there anything more meaningful than a gift he made himself?
he makes so many handmade things but his favorite thing to do is scrap books. he tries to collect his favorite pics with you every month and he puts them in a scrapbook with cute and sweet handwritten messages.
he loves seeing your wide smile as you scan every picture he chose, remembering each day like it was yesterday.
PARK JONGSEONG !
— leaves you notes or flowers
he does this almost everyday or at least when he stays over at yours and he even has special cute and decorated post its just for you :’)
sometimes he will notice that you might be feeling a little more down or stressed with school/work so he waits for you to fall asleep before he leaves after writing a heartfelt note and sticking it somewhere he knows you’ll see it.
or sometimes jay just feels like treating you nicely so he sends your favorite flowers with a postcard to your house or office.
it all just makes you feel so giddy and soft on the inside, you love how much he shows affection to you in all kinds of ways.
SIM JAKE !
— is present in the most important moments
being from abroad is hard and jake knows that because he also came from a different country, so when knows his s/o isn’t from korea he tries to make up for the fact you don’t have anyone like family members around to supporto you.
when you have important presentations he will be in the audience cheering for you with the biggest smile on his face.
most of the times he does this are surprises, you never know when to expect seeing him there and you would bawl your eyes out if you weren’t in front of so many people.
when you have your first job interview he will take you to where it’s going to take place and he will wait outside and when you come out will tell you that you did good no matter what results are gonna be.
PARK SUNGHOON !
— writes you letters expressing himself
i feel like sunghoon is really shy when it comes to expressing his feelings, although it doesn’t stop him from telling you he loves you every day.
every week he writes you a letter in neat and pretty handwriting, sometimes just telling you how he is feeling lately, other times talking about how much he loves you and how afraid he is of losing you.
he puts every feeling there is in him in the paper, always writing you more than one sheet of paper. After you read all of them you alway call him and you both talk about it, which makes him shy and his ears turn red.
you keep every letter in a box in a place only you and him know and you always read them when you miss him when he’s away.
KIM SUNOO !
— prepares you a spa day/bath
we all know sunoo is all about self care with all the skin care he does and the vitamins he takes and now it’s also a habit of yours thanks to him.
he loves taking care of you when he feels like you aren’t doing it, unable to do it either from stress or just being busy with your life.
when those situations happen, he never fails to surprise you when you come home with a warm bubbly bath in your bathroom, now candle lit.
he asks you to get in the tub as he leaves to get you more things.
he comes back with a huge variety of skin care for you to choose and prepares you your favorite light drink.
when you come out of the shower he will have you laying in the bed and will give the best back massage you’ll ever get, breaking all the knots in you, finishing off with kisses all over your back and face making you giggle.
YANG JUNGWON !
— takes time to celebrate important dates
jungwon loves planning things for you, especially your birthday. even though it makes him wanna rip his hair off he makes all the efforts to make it the best birthday party you could ever have.
literally no one can talk to him during the weeks he is planning it because he is so stressed that he will snap at someone unintentionally (he apologizes later, poor won)
he will plan it almost a month earlier to make sure everything is perfect. he look for the best bakeries around and tries to find the best rooftop to have the party.
he contacts every single one of your friends trying not to forget to invite anyone.
then the worts part comes, the present to give you. jungwon knows so much about you, almost every little detail, but one thing he doesn’t know is what to give you in your birthday, even if you reassure him he is the best present >-<
all the stress his worthy when he sees your teary eyes smile at the big party.
NISHIMURA RIKI !
— spends quality time with you
being an idol takes a lot of someone’s time and niki tries to use every second he had of free time to be with you since he’s always in and out of the country and he knows you hate being alone.
niki takes you everywhere you possibly can go. you go hiking, you go to amusement parks, to the movies, trying out restaurants, just anywhere.
he’s always up to try new things with you and sometimes he might bring the other boys along or you bring your friends, but it’s very rare to happen.
he always takes his digital camera, taking pictures of you when you aren’t looking, which he ends up showing you making you complain of how bad you look and he just glares at you.
sometimes you just go to quiet places and enjoy each other presence, like going to parks in the middle of the nowhere, where it’s just the two of you being two fools in love.

Biting the Hand That Feeds au FAQ (Vampires + donor au)
Any general content warnings for bhtf au?
Yes. A normal amount of fnaf warnings, a normal amount of vampire warnings. For someone who doesn't know I elaborate... For vampire stuff, the most obvious ones are blood, hypnosis, bites, and animalistic behaviour. Less obvious - slightly suggestive themes. For fnaf - fnaf's usual violence, dark themes, a drop of gore and murders. The lore is uh. Very dark. I will try to decrease the amount of all of the cruelty but man. People who know, know how hard it will be. But I will tag everything properly so don't worry.
Is there a fic for your au?
No. And currently, I'm not even planning on writing one.
How do I find the story?
For now, we have two comics that are directly connected and one that doesn't have a specific place in the story but is about canonical lore.
[ 1 ] - [ 2 ] - [ x ]
In future, we will have more and I probably absolutely will forget to update this post so I recommend checking the tags. Here's the tag list
Tip: don't click the tag. Tumblr hides half of the results. Type it in the blog's search instead :)
Are the comics the only canonical thing about au?
No! I answer asks and draw a lot of doodles with bhtf au all the time and 90% of them are canon. You can, yet again, find everything in the tag list linked in the previous question.
Can I draw/write fan stuff for your au?
Yes, please!! I'm always happy to see fanart and fan writings and literally everything that you do! Just tag me when you post and use a fanart or fanwriting tag for au specifically so I don't miss it!
Can you include my characters in your story?
No, unfortunately, I cannot. The story is already written and I don't have any "space" for background characters either. Maybe it will change but currently, things are like this.
I asked a question with an interaction with my characters and I never got an answer, why?
I don't accept such requests. I'm not ready to spend my time drawing other people's characters for free(if I personally don't want to, of course)
Is there any limit to how many questions I can ask?
No, not at all! You can ask all you want just please make sure your question wasn't answered before. There is a big possibility I will just simply delete it if it was answered beforehand many times. Check the ask tag for it.
What about limitations? Any boundaries?
Please no questions about tickling🧍♀️ I got so many of those it already makes me uncomfortable. And for some reason, a lot of people send asks that include violence towards my characters and while I don't really feel uncomfortable with this I just idk what to answer and why are you even doing this lmao
What questions I should avoid?
Well, not really avoid but I will mention it anyway.
The things I have planned to draw right now:
- Sun and Moon and y/n's first meeting
- The creation of Sun&Moon
- Why S&M are sensitive to light and darkness
- How they hunt
So no need to ask me about these. I will show it, I promise.
What about sexual themes?
I understand that I post a lot of suggestive stuff and it may appear I allow such a thing but no.
You can create content with it tho, I don't mind for the most part. Just be ready that I may not reblog it, as my Tumblr is a SFW place. It's always 50/50.
Romantic themes?
I do draw some kisses and cuddles when I feel like it and you of course can send ideas for cute interactions but in the story we're very far away from it lol.
My question gets ignored even though I followed everything that you mentioned here. Why?
Answered in main FAQ.
Can I share the ideas for your au with you?
YES!!! Yes, yes and yes! I'm very open to that, like yes! The only thing that I definitely want to mention - you should expect that I actually can take your ideas and use them. Some people are protective of their ideas so if you're like this you probably should not share them with me :)
The information that you're using for your au is wrong.
Happens sometimes yeah. I know nothing about any medical stuff for y/n so I usually improvise. After all it's an au about robotic vampires man, this information is absolutely wrong. But! You're free to drop feedback/constructive criticism in my inbox!
Will be updated later

Hi everypony!
My kofi is ko-fi.com/captainzigo if you enjoy my art, consider leaving me a tip! this is otherwise entirely a labor of love so,,,
you can also send a request with your tip! but if you choose to do so, please read the disclaimer later on in this post**
my non-art blog, where i accept asks is @snapewife-divorce-lawyer and my reblog-spam blog is @3amgaypotion also i am on bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/captainzigo.bsky.social
that's a bunch of pictures of my oc(/ponysona) Prickly Pear. she's a cowgirl
Frequent/noteworthy questions below the break
**on donations made to me:
i still dont take commissions currently, but if you send a request with a donation, there's a 99% chance i'll do it. and that remaining 1% i'll probably just ask you for a different request. if you send me a request with a donation you are not sending me a commision. you are making a donation, and i might do you a favor as a result. you do not own the resulting art. and I am under no obligation to complete it or to do it in the way that you like. you do not need to make a donation in order to make a request. i talk more about it here
hello mutuals!
If you are a mutual, DM me for an invite to discord server and subsequently to minecraft server
on sending me asks:
any asks you send me should be like Strongbad emails. one paragraph. no attachments. unless you are sending me refs.
in any interactions, please keep in mind that i am a stranger on the internet and act accordingly.
unless I have explicitly said otherwise, you can safely assume that I do not count you amongst my friends. it is nothing personal, it is in fact the opposite.
why am i like this?
i am autistic. i say this because representation matters, but also because i would like to ask that you please be very frank with me. i don't even really need your patience. just say what you mean and we will get along fine.
can you draw my ocs?
you most certainly can draw any of my ocs. i'd love that acually. tag me
on (re)posting my art:
do not post my art on other platforms. do not repost my art period. I don't really exist on other platforms since i deleted Twitter. So if you see my stuff on other platforms, it's not me. except for my bluesky.
transformative works are obviously allowed, at least here in america where i live. but if you want my blessing, please keep them SFW, and try to keep the spirit of the original artwork
is my blog SFW?
im in my twenties. i keep my blog SFW (as i define it) as a strict rule.
i do not consider the fact that sex exists, that some people enjoy it, or some innuendo to be NSFW. i also do not consider swearing, even as tho a sailor might, to be NSFW.
are NSFW interactions ok?
in short: no. while i have no aversion to to that sort of thing, and often actually enjoy it, i keep this blog SFW. the intention behind my art is to be SFW even when it might be skirting the line. in general, and especially, specifically with mlp, i do not wish to have NSFW interactions on the internet. please respect this boundary.
on shipping:
in my opinion, all romance real or fictional should be between people who are similar in age, doing age appropriate things, not closely related, and all with mutual consent. i am not interested in witnessing or interacting with anything outside of these parameters.
on my blue hair and pronouns:
i am a trans woman. i am also bisexual. i am also poly and demi since im listing things. i am out online becasue i know how important it is to know that you aren't alone.
do i take constructive criticism?
NO 🖕👹🖕 FUCK YOU!!!!!!! GET BLOCKED IDIOT!! unless you are a marginalized person who feels i have unintentionally made you uncomfortable somehow with my art or otherwise. in that case i am sorry and you do me a great favor by calling me out. OTHERWISE FUCK YOU DUMBASS IF YOU DONT LIKE MY ART GO DRAW YOUR OWN 🖕🖕🖕🖕
“i hate bronies”…
i don't necessarily hate you if you self identify with that label. i like to make myself off-putting to keep creeps away. i talk about it more in this post: https://www.tumblr.com/captainzigo/744131513208176640/when-i-say-i-hate-bronies-in-my-header-its
brony?
i don't hold a lot of nostalgia for old brony stuff. infact it's quite the opposite. i was a child when the show came out, and more than that i was a girl. i am not a brony.
do i like g5?
i like all generations of mip including the new stuff. gen 4 is just the one i grew up with
why is my header aurora, bori and alice from the best gift ever?
well that would be because i hate them like a mother hates a child. like the sun hates the moon. like sickly victorian child hates the slightest morsel of bread.
on flurryheart:
i often draw stuff about cozy glow x flurry heart. this is with the understanding that cozy glow spends about a decade turned to stone. nullifying the age gap.
🤓☝️ i think you mean effect, not affect
i am dyslexic. i spell stuff wrong all the time and i type weird. please don't bother correcting me. wooptydoo your brain is wired normally. sending you a medal.
on my username:
i've had the same username since i debuted on the internet. zigo is the name of an oc i made that i dont really talk much about anymore. zigo is a fine enough nickname, and at least one person calls me that irl.

Hiiiii Nivi. Saw a Preath post and now I am back in my Preath days all over again, but I wanted to talk about how similar Pazzi is to Preath 😭
I know we’ve talked about the basics and how Paige = Tobin, and Azzi = Christen. But it’s crazyyy how true it actually is 😭
Paige/PB are your basic white girls that are attractive and have that masculine vibe to them. They both have their flashy ways of playing, but always put teammates over anything. Tobin and PB give “quiet leader vibes” (I think PB is probs more vocal, but that’s just bc of her team and who she plays with). I also would say that Tobin and PB are both all around players. Tobin being a great winger, was amazing in the midfield for us for a while, and also has a good defensive presence and played RB for us as well during that cursed Rio Olympics 😭😭. And obvs PB is a 3 level scorer, but also a 2 way player (I think we do not appreciate her defense enough tho!!)
Azzi/CP are your “they were so pretty they were bullied in school and called ‘pretty girl pretty girl’” meme (LOL). Both are princesses and sweet, but lethal on the court/field. (Azzi and Press being sharp shooters and also quick asfff respectively). I constantly think about how silky smooth Azzi’s shoot is and how you always want her to be taking the shot. Meanwhile, Press is amazing at creating her own shot and any sliver of daylight, she’s pulling the trigger and it’s going to be a GOLAZO. I also think both players could have been in the limelight more, but bc of other teammates (Paige for Azzi, and Alex Morgan for CP) and their bad timing with injuries, people/media don’t appreciate them enough.
All 4 of them have battled injuries, all of them being knee injuries as well 😭 I just think it’s insane how we’ve talked about the dynamic of Preath/Pazzi and how similar they are, but individually, they are all so eerily similar as well LMAO
Okay, I’ll get off of my soap box now. I hope you slightly enjoyed this breakdown Nivi! Can’t wait to see what you say and what other comparisons you can think about haha 🫶🫶
Hi lovely <3
I love soapbox asks. They're my favorite so like y'all please never hesitate to send me long asks.
I think I've subconsciously had all of these thoughts but damn seeing it all laid out like that, the parallels go kind of insane. I think we often talk about it in terms of personality, but yeah Paige-Tobin and Azzi-Christen have such similar playing styles, it's actually uncanny.
Okay I actually do have a parallel that I've been thinking about and it's about Gemini-Capricorn (Preath) parings and Libra-Scorpio (Pazzi) pairing. Both of these pairings are very much opposites attract pairings (which we see in real life obviously) to the point where honestly in most situations, these pairings aren't compatible. Except from what I've read, there are certain exceptions who know how to take their opposite approaches to various problems in life and find the perfect way to mesh them together. As a result the "exception" are some of the most strongest couples there can be and I think that's kinda beautiful because I think both Pazzi/Preath together and individually are the exception to so many supposed rules.

((Definitely didn't rewrite this ask like 8 different times pshhhh u don't know what ur talking about-))
First things first, I'm 1000000% agreeing with your post about there not being enough platonic Spiderverse x Reader content. I am literally STARVING for platonic Spiderverse PLEASE,,,, there were only like 10 posts when I searched it up last and AO3 was so empty when I checked,,,,
Secondly, I rewatched the first Spiderverse two days ago ((& watched the new one earlier today)), but something about rewatching the original triggered some dormant part of me that has decided that Noir would be SUCH A GOOD PARENTAL / MENTOR FIGURE!!!
So, If you're cool with it, could I get some headcanons or a oneshot ((whatever you're feeling I'm starving here please-)) with him and a reader who's an older teen (like 17-19) and became Spiderman/woman/person when they were in their mid-teens (15/16)? It would probably work best with the context of the reader being a part of the events of the first movie, but in my head, reader has lived their entire life without close friends or anyone they could really talk to about their problems ((especially after they got bit)), so they closed themself off from others. Noir seems like the type that would be able to push someone like them to interact with others more, while also being entirely willing and eager to act as a support system. Maybe the oneshot/headcanon would involve reader getting hurt and Noir patching them up and letting them know that they do have other spider-people available to support them? Preferably gender-neutral but I don't mind either way! :]
((sorry but kinda not sorry for the kinda longish ask ((I did cut it down tho so hopefully it's a bit better)), rewatching Spiderverse triggered something in me that deeply desires parental! Noir so when I saw your post I immediately needed to send in an ask lol))
“You don’t have to shut everything out, you know.”
His words confused you for a moment, until you realized it was gonna be one of those sentimental, overly-emotional, trying to break your walls down, conversations.
“I don’t know what you mean.” You said, rather nonchalantly. You winced when he tightened the bandages around your arms.
You had insisted on going off on your own, resulting in you getting your ass beat- injured.
And apparently Noir was a doctor, so you got stuck with the black and white spiderman variant.
Everyone had tried to engage with you, the pig was very persistent in getting you to crack a smile with his cheesy, cartoony jokes. Their efforts proved to be fruitless.
You lived your entire like without needing anyone, and you weren’t about to change that. It was better that way. You were safer.
“You’re rather cut off for a kid?” It was said like a question, but you knew Noir knew it was a fact.
You acknowledged this was a huff as you cradled you injured arm.
“Could I, uh, see your hand?” Noir held out his own hand. You hesitated, looking between his hand and his masked face. You placed your hand in his.
He began to wrap your bruised hand in bandages that were provided by Mile’s universes Aunt May.
“I know being Spider-Man is hard, but it’s nice knowing there are other spider… people.”
You stayed silent, your answers coming out in hums or little noises, never taking your eyes off of his hands. You stiffened as his fingers touched one of the bruises.
“You’re allowed to talk, kid.” He said, looking you dead in the eye.
“I know that.” You replied, yanking your neatly bandaged hand away from him. “Just don’t see the need for it.”
Noir slightly tilted his head to the side. He hummed after hearing your answer.
“That’s a shame, I quite like the sound of your voice.
Now he was just trying to butter you up.
“Really?” Your tone of voice proved you didn’t believe him.
“Of course. I can only imagine the type of things you’ve got to say.” He leaned back in his chair in Aunt May’s living room. “What’s it like in your world? It’s obvious all our worlds are different.”
You sighed, a bit frustrated. “Look, I swing around, fight the bad guys, get bashed for it on the news, thats my life, nothing more to it.” You pulled your knees closer to your chest as you sat in an armchair.
“Well, if you ever wanna get more… in-depth about it, I haven’t quite lost my hearing yet.” He got up and sent two finger guns your way. It took everything in you not to let a small smile break free.
He left the room, leaving you by yourself. It was quiet and empty.
Suddenly, you didn’t like being alone.

home back to you - pt 1
So my friends knew this was coming - finally posting the first part of the Steve/tommy/carol post S2 fic ❤️
Summary:
Steve’s fight with Billy is exactly the kick in the pants Tommy (and Carol) need to make amends with Steve. Now if only Steve and his weird security detail full of bratty middle schoolers made it easier to talk to him. The Steve/Tommy/Carol post-s2 fic that no one has been asking for but me <3
AO3 Link | Pt. 2
Minor tw: some ableist language, tommy badmouthing Jonathan and Nancy (tho this is NOT a bashing fic), the S2 shower scene being weird as hell
Tommy thought that Billy Hargrove was the best thing to happen to Hawkins High since Steve Harrington ditched his throne (and Tommy and Carol along with it).
Billy was wild in a way that was hard to match, sending fire thrumming through Tommy’s veins and scorching the hole that Steve had left behind. He was making things exciting again, shaking up the social hierarchy in a way that Tommy felt (or well, Carol pointed out) he could use to his advantage. It didn’t take long for the two of them to be practically attached at the hip, reminding him of earlier, easier days.
(Days he was trying hard to forget.)
A part of him was also watching how Billy circled Ste- Harrington, like a hawk circling its prey, reminding him of the nature documentaries he liked to watch when he was sick. It would worry him, maybe, the look in Billy’s eyes, if he wasn’t hoping this would be the thing that truly unseated Steve. That made him return to normal, drop Wheeler and come crawling back to him and Carol.
(He thought that Steve would’ve broken up with Nancy months ago, they’d never fought for this long before-)
Tommy came to regret that sentiment after everything played out.
It started at practice – well, if Tommy was being honest with himself (which he was trying to get better at, with mixed results), it likely started from the first moment that Billy laid his ice blue eyes on Harrington, that night at Tina’s party.
He hadn’t noticed it then, not as drunk as he was pretending to be but drunker than he really meant to be, thrumming with adrenaline (and something that felt strangely like attraction, though, that didn’t really make any sense) as Billy in one fatal blow, beat Steve’s record and became the new Keg King.
Tommy had felt bad about how excited he was, knowing that Steve, Carol, and him had worked hard to learn how to hold their liquor. That didn’t stop the petty part of him from being happy about it.
Not only was the new kid already putting Harrington in his place, maybe this would be the thing that caused Steve to turn (his) their way again. Cause him to care about his reputation a little more. He’d worked so hard for it – they all had – he didn’t get how he could just drop it so easily.
(How he could drop them so easily.)
Tommy was so sure this was the first step in finally pulling Steve’s head out of his ass – (show him that he and Carol didn’t need him) – that he introduced Billy to him that night.
Like he said, he didn’t realize it then, but that was the real start of it.
The start as he remembered it was at basketball practice the next day.
Billy was… competitive with Steve on the court.
Which, of course he was, Ste- Harrington managed to stay aloft in the social hierarchy, despite dropping all of his actual friends because of his place on the basketball team.
Basketball was the biggest sport in the school, in the county, and not just because everyone around was a fan of the Hoosiers, though that definitely played a part. Back when they were still sophomores, Tommy and Steve had helped lead the school to its first championship in years.
Steve shot the winning shot and got the keg king title at the after party, in one fell swoop securing his place not only in the Hawkins history books but also his spot at the top of the high school’s food chain for the rest of his high school career.
The next year they made him captain, and Harrington was good at being captain. Though he spent most of his time with Wheeler and even Byers (which, really? The guy that his almost-girlfriend cheated on him with? He was preferable to Tommy and Carol? His best friends since grade school?) he still made sure to dedicate time to the team, both on and off the court. And the team respected him for that.
(Tommy had to respect him for that, too. Even if it wasn’t fair that the only time Tommy got St- Harrington was when they were hanging out as a team.)
If Billy could unseat Steve on the court and with the team, his reign would be all but guaranteed. So, it made some sort of sense to Tommy as he watched Billy push their captain around, get in his face, yell at him to ‘plant his feet’. Tommy could see that Harrington wasn’t at his best, almost seeming hungover.
Thing was, despite how gone Tommy himself was, he knew that Steve hadn’t drank much that night. Aside from the fact that losing his Keg King title wasn’t enough to lure him into doing his own keg stand, he’s pretty sure he saw Wheeler hitting the punch bowl more than Stev- Harrington was. Especially when it led to a loud argument in Tina’s bathroom.
Even if he had been blackout drunk, Tommy would be able to tell when Steve was trying not to cry.
(He’d have to ask Carol later if it was possible to be emotionally hungover.)
The predatorial posturing was interrupted by Wheeler appearing at the door. Normally, it wouldn’t be odd to see her at practice. Tommy had seen her working on homework (gross) on the bleachers before, and even would occasionally pop in when doing a story for the school paper, but she had never interrupted like this before, with frustration visibly leaking off of her.
Ste- Harrington sighed and followed her out, waving to the coach. For once, he didn’t look like he was literally walking on air when approaching her.
“That Harrington’s girl?” Billy asked, sliding to a controlled stop next to Tommy.
He responded without thinking, “Not sure she will be after today.”
Billy threw his head back and let out a mocking laugh. Tommy flushed as he watched the sweat from Billy’s mullet trickle down his chest. He forced himself to look away as Coach blew the whistle.
–
Two days later Tommy got his confirmation.
“Wheeler isn’t here today, again,” Carol said, appearing beside his locker as he closed the door. He didn’t jump, used to his girlfriend appearing out of nowhere. “And you’ll never guess who else is missing.”
Tommy’s mouth dropped.
“No.”
“That fucking creep, Byers.”
Seemed like Tommy had been right. Steve and Wheeler had broken up.
(If they hadn’t yet, Steve sure wasn’t going to take her back this time. Talk about turning into your parents-)
He felt suddenly energized, riding on a high that carried him all the way through to afternoon practice. Especially with the way Billy’s eyes lit up at the little piece of gossip.
He decided to follow Billy’s lead on this, waiting for him to bring it up to Harrington. During practice, he mostly shoved the other around, taunting him and generally running circles around him. Tommy could tell that Harrington’s head still wasn’t in the game, and it reflected on the rest of his scrimmage team. They trounced them.
(Tommy almost felt bad about it, but the bitter part of him didn’t.)
Coach pulled Steve aside, probably to try and figure out ‘what the hell was up with him’, and the rest if the team hit the showers. Tommy and Billy both drew the short stick, getting some of the last shower slots, which was… not a problem exactly.
Tommy preferred to shower last, normally taking a little extra time to shoot hoops and shoot the shit. The less time spent in the locker room around his naked teammates, the better. Why would he want to spend time around a bunch of naked guys, anyway? Though, it was more time spent loitering around in his gross clothes than he really wanted.
Anyway, he wasn’t sure why he felt so uneasy about it.
Steve (Harrington dammit) still wasn’t done talking to the Coach by the time Tommy and Billy were finally able to get under that sweet, freezing water. He lifted his chin up towards the spray, savoring the feeling, letting it center him. His eyes were clenched shut, so he didn’t get soap in them.
(Not for any other reason at all.)
Right as he was ready to get out, Steve finally entered the showers. Tommy’s eyes popped open just in time to see the smirk crawl across Billy’s face.
“Don’t sweat it, Harrington,” he said, wiping water from his face as he stared intensely at their captain. “Today’s just not your day, man.”
“Yeah, not your week,” Tommy was quick to add on, eager to rub his newfound knowledge in his face. “You and the princess break up for one day, and she’s already running off with the school Creep.” He leaned around the shower pole to make eye contact with Steve.
Steve just stared at him, a note of confusion on his face before his eyes flickered down to his fancy soap impatiently. Surprise and glee flooded through Tommy.
“Oh shit, you don’t know,” he said, unable to keep his grin from growing. Steve continued with his routine, trying to ignore him. “Jonathan and the princess skipped yesterday. Still haven’t shown.”
His former best friend was refusing to look at him, but Tommy could see the way his mouth had tightened. He leaned against the pole, as close as he would allow himself to get in that moment.
“But that must just be a coincidence, right?”
Steve glanced at him before he grabbed his even fancier shampoo. The brief moment of eye contact was almost too much for Tommy. Steve kept his expression cold and uncaring, but Tommy knew him well enough still, could see the pinch around his eyes. The distaste. They were standing too close.
Tommy couldn’t stop the laughter that burst out of him, one part mocking, the other veering into hysterics, and turned away to grab his towel.
He didn’t really pay attention to what Billy said after that, trying to get his head on straight, but he couldn’t miss the way Billy’s mouth wrapped around the words “pretty boy”.
–
The town had an eerie feeling hanging over it that weekend.
He stayed over at Carol’s house all three nights. It was only meant to be one or two, but then both of her parents got called into work because of some sort of weird flu or food poisoning or whatever was going around.
Neither of them were fans of sleeping alone, though neither of them would admit it.
(Not that they really needed to admit it, after knowing each other this long, dating for this long. They didn’t need to waste time on pointless conversation.)
A pack of wild dogs seemed to be roaming through the woods, filling it with feral sounding snarls and leaving trails of debris everywhere. Tommy thought it was odd how they seemed to come out of nowhere, but it wasn’t uncommon for people to ditch animals on the side of the road, so didn’t give it too much thought.
Come Monday morning, the strangeness continued when Billy pulled up to school quieter than normal, rage hanging from his shoulders. His little sister wasn’t in the car with him for once, but Tommy just figured she was sick or something. He didn’t completely understand their family dynamic, honestly.
“Man, what happened to your face?” he exclaimed in surprise once the other man drew closer.
Vicki, who had been chatting with Carol, gasped dramatically and ran up to him, clucking her tongue and simpering at him. Billy put up with it, but didn’t have as heated of a smile to give her as he normally did, to her agitation.
“Had to teach someone a lesson,” he grunted, throwing his around her as something of a consolation. She huffed a little but snuggled up to him anyway, accepting the unspoken apology.
Privately, Tommy thought that it looked like someone had taught Billy the lesson, not the other way around. He wondered if it was Steve, and was privately impressed. He didn’t know Steve had it in him to go after someone like that, but maybe he’d been right. Maybe Wheeler ditching him was the kick in the pants he’d needed all along.
Tommy couldn’t wait to see what he might do, might say, when he got to school that day.
But Steve wasn’t at school that day, he didn’t show up to school that entire week.
He would’ve been worried, but Steve didn’t need him to worry about him anymore. He’d made that clear.
(Tommy was worried anyway.)
That week, he distracted himself by spending time with Billy. There was a sense of unease around the man at all times, but it lessened slightly as the week went on. Tommy could tell that he was fixating on him a little bit, more than he had with anyone other than Carol (or Steve) in ages.
Carol thought the whole thing was funny, giggling with Vicki and Nicole over milkshakes as Tommy, Billy, and whatever other members of the basketball team they dragged along with them were their normal rowdy selves. She knew how Tommy could get – had known him since he moved to this god forsaken town.
All that to say, he was feeling pretty good, despite the conspicuous absence of Harrington at their practices.
That peace was shattered the day he came back.
Tommy didn’t actually see Steve during the actual school day on Monday, but he did see the ripples that were sent through the student body. Whispers filled the halls, but cut off abruptly when Billy walked through them.
Carol’s lips were pinched at lunch, but she refused to tell him why. Wanted more information before she told him. She hated not having the full picture.
Looking back, it wouldn’t have mattered if she had told him. Nothing would have prepared him for seeing Steve that day.
Tommy stopped short when he saw Ste- Harring- Steve shuffling out of Coach’s office that afternoon. He had sunglasses on, but they couldn’t hide the rainbow mosaic on his face, a mix of purples and blues and yellows and greens – bruises all in different stages of healing. He looked like he’d been run over by a truck.
Tommy felt like he’d been hit by a truck. What the hell had happened?
Billy wouldn’t have done that, would he?
“Steve?” he called out, unable to stop himself from saying something. Ignoring the fact that that was the first time he had called Steve by his first name in literal months. He wasn’t really concerned with that right now, not trying to hide how much he cared. Not when Steve’s face looked like that.
Steve turned, his hair flopping limply. It was obvious he had done something to it, but not much. He never let it get this… lusterless in public. His face scrunched up, obviously squinting despite the sunglasses.
With a sigh that seemed to be masking a tired groan, Steve said, “I’m not in the mood, Hagan.”
Tommy knew getting last-named shouldn’t hurt (he and Steve had been doing it for months at this point, wielding it like a weapon every time they bothered to talk to each other), but it did.
“What happened to your face?” he asked, pushing down the hurt and unconsciously echoing the same question he asked Billy the week before.
“What do you think?” Steve scoffed, tossing his head back like he always did when rolling his eyes. This seemed to be a bad idea, since he immediately rocked back forward with a wince. “Your new best friend broke a plate over my head.”
Tommy reared back. “He did what?”
“Oh, he didn’t tell you?” he said, sounding incredibly bitter. “I shouldn’t be surprised. Probably didn’t want to admit that the only reason he wasn’t arrested for being a fucking psycho is because Hopper had other things to worry about.”
There seemed to be a strange ringing sound echoing through the halls, and it confused Tommy until he realized it was just his ears.
Billy did that?
Tommy didn’t want to believe it, not only because it just didn’t make sense (it made perfect sense, Billy had always seemed a little off to Tommy but he was too obsessed with him to care-) but because this wasn’t how it was supposed to go.
People got into petty fights all the time and normally no one was that fucked up at the end of it. A couple of bruises, maybe a broken nose or a black eye, something for the girls to coo over and for other guys to be subtly impressed by, knowing that guy was a guy that shouldn’t be messed with. The worst fight he’d seen happen was when Creepy Byers lost his shit on Steve the year before.
(Tommy wondered for a second what it was about Steve that made guys lose their gourd over him, but shoved that thought out of his mind.)
This- this wasn’t what was supposed to happen.
This wasn’t what he wanted.
Steve seemed to take his shocked silence for some sort of answer, because he sighed quietly to himself.
“It’s like talking to a brick wall, I swear,” he said, walking past him with a hand on his temple, massaging around the bandage he was only now noticing.
He moved aside to let him pass automatically, not sure how to get his mouth working again. Steve started towards the entrance, but paused suddenly, turning to call one last thing to his former best friend.
“Be careful around Billy, Tommy,” he said, using his first name for the first time in a year. “He’s more dangerous than you think he is.”

Perhaps a mumpearl as Olympic athletes for the inktober prompts :D!! I always imagine mumbo would be a cyclist of some kind and pearl might be some sort of swimmer/diver ?! ( that is like our number one Olympic sport after all),, feel free to do whatever with this tho :D
Sorry anon, I took like two thirds of your prompt and the other third.....went in a different direction. But maybe I'll write another drabble where Mumbo is an athlete because we need more Jock!Mumbo representation in this world.
Modern AU, Olympic Diver Pearl x Sports Photographer Mumbo, meet cute chaos, Paris 2024 games
The thing no one tells you about the Olympics, is how much free time you end up having.
Before your event it's all a frantic haze of nerves and training and excitement and practice and adrenaline and press and even more nerves. But before you know it, you're standing on a podium, hair still dripping wet from the diving well, overwhelmed with more emotions than you thought possible as you watch your flag rise towards the rafters even if there's another national anthem echoing off the walls of the Olympic Aquatic center as it goes.
But a silver medal is still fantastic. Pearl is more than satisfied with her dive in the finals and it takes another two days for the fact that she's an Olympic champion in the 10 meter platform dive to sink in.
The problem is that even after all that, there are still 8 more days until the closing ceremonies.
8 days is a long time, and you know what they say about idle hands.
"That's a great shot of you, Pearl, did you see this?" Skizz flips his phone screen around across the table in the Olympic Village dining hall, flashing an Instagram post in front of Pearl.
She barley has time to register the photo before the other half of the Australian men's synchronized diving team plops his breakfast down next to Skizz.
"What are you two looking at?" Impulse asks, and then the picture is gone as Skizz pulls it back to the other side of the table to show Impulse.
"Oh yeah, that’s a great photo. You should save that one," he nods in agreement, looking at Skizz's phone even as he starts to peel the wrapper off his muffin without looking down at his hands.
"I didn’t even really get to see- you know just send me the link." Pearl tosses out because just then Tango emerges from the crowd of athletes to join them for breakfast. Then Gem texts her about going to watch a women's beach volleyball match under the Eiffel Tower later that day and Scott stop by their table to trade for another Australia pin and Pearl completely forgets about the conversation and the photo in the general chaos of life in the Olympic village.
She doesn't even remember the conversation until the next day as waits for Tango's turn in the qualifying rounds of the men's 3 meter springboard. Should she be scrolling through Instagram while sitting in the stands for the Olympics? Probably not. But there are so many divers at this stage, and Tom Daly is sitting 10 rows ahead of her knitting an entire sweater, so she doesn’t feel that bad.
So she opens the link that Skizz sent her and starts to flick though the pictures in the post. It’s a pretty generic wrap up of the Australian Olympic team's happenings; a cool cycling action shot, an athlete hugging his girlfriend in the stands, a misty eyed gold medalist on the podium. The usual.
But there is it.
Buried in the middle of the carousal.
A shot of Pearl, her fingers just touching the water as she finishes her silver medal winning dive.
The boys were right.
It is a really good photo.
Pearl can probably count on one hand the number of good photos that exist of her diving. Hell, she can probably count on one hand the number of good photos that exist of anyone diving.
Diving is a sport of marvelous precision and grace that does not translate well in photography. It turns out that flipping and twisting your body at high speeds as you plummet towards the earth results in a lot of photos with weird faces and strange contortions. Not to mention whatever is usually happening with her hair.
But there is none of that awkwardness in this photo.
Instead it’s just the single clean line of Pearl's body pulled taught just before she slices into the water. Even in the photo she can feel the tension in her muscles as she arches her back, the momentum of her body as it races towards the water, the anticipation of an impact as her fingertips make the tiniest hints of a splash as they break the surface of the water.
It's gives her the incredible feeling of motion captured in stillness.
She's so engrossed in the picture she almost misses Tango's distinct shock of red and bleach blonde hair on the diving board until the announcer calls his name.
He has a great dive, not that she would expect anything less from the Olympic veteran. But what she notices most as she watches Tango effortlessly slip below the water is the wall of lenses beyond him on the other side of the pool.
She wonders if the photographer who took her picture is over there. She wonders, out of the sea of cameras clicking along the pool deck, which one it was.
Under any other circumstance, maybe that would have been it. A stray thought and some idle curiosity. Pearl would have saved the photo to post in her Olympics wrap up photo dump, and moved on.
Except for the next 3 days, she has nothing to do but sit in the stands of the Olympic Aquatics center, watching her friends dive for a few seconds at a time before going back to just staring at the wall of camera lenses right in front of her.
She cannot stop thinking about that photo.
So it starts off simple enough. First she checks the post for a photo credit and learns exactly how little a generic link to Getty Images will tell you about the actual photographer.
Then she does some some Google searches. Then some some. Then she falls down a lot of internet rabbit holes, and complains a lot about said searches and rabbit holes to all of her friends.
If her friends weren't also drowning in free time after finishing their events, maybe that would have been it. A series of forgotten mindless conversations over the chatter of Olympic crowds under the hot Parisian sun.
Except Gem's boredom manifests in her dragging everyone she's ever met to every event she can get tickets for, which is how Pearl meets False at an equestrian event neither of them really understand. And as they watch the horses conduct nearly identical jumps one after another, Pearl recounts the long, circuitous, frustrating saga of trying to track down this elusive photographer.
"Stress might be able to help you find out," False offers, glancing over at Pearl as she fans herself with a folded up event program.
"Who?"
"Stress. She's…" and Pearl follow where False is pointing with the edge of her program to an announcer tucked up inside one of the press booths. Even from here Pearl can see the woman in the vivid magenta suit jacket gesticulating wildly, her curly brown hair crushed in the center by a headset that appears to have large fake flowers stuck all over it.
"She's here with BBC. I've known her since the London Games I think? Maybe she knows how all that works," False shrugs.
If Pearl had literally anything better to do that afternoon, maybe that would have been it. A missed connection of friends of friends that she forgot about.
Except Pearl has no plans for the rest of the day other than drinking her body weight in champagne, so she convinces False to wait until all the horses are done competing, and then she drags False over to the press section to make the introduction.
It turns out that Stress Monster, equestrian legend and BBC announcer darling, does not, in fact, know how any of that works.
But she does know Iskall, who is either a Swedish language translator, a global media executive, a camera operator, or just a parent watching his stepson compete on the trampoline. Maybe all of the above. Between the Swedish accent, the Bristish accent, and the champagne Pearl had already had, its hard to keep track.
"This picture?" He asks, looking up from Pearl's phone where she pulled up the original Instagram post.
"Yes. I tried looking if there was a-"
"I got it." Iskall says, fingers already flying over her phone doing god only knows what. "I'll do it. I will find the person who took it. Iskall-man is on the case!"
"You're so dramatic," Stress rolls her eyes in a huff, nudging his shoulder.
"Do you not think I can do it? That I can find him? Or her? Because I can. I can find anything. I can do anything. Name one thing I can't do," He snaps his eyes up from Pearl's phone to glare at Stress, even thought she can tell there is no anger behind his eyes.
"What do you even know about diving?" Stress snarks back, barley suppressing a smile.
"Plenty! You don't know that I don't know about diving! And I don't even need to know about that to…"
Iskall doesn’t even look back at Pearl as he hands her the phone back, too busy bickering with Stress to say any more about Pearl's mystery photographer.
At that point, Pearl really thinks maybe this is it. This is a dead end as a friend of a friend of a friend with a real job and things to do other than obsess over who took a single stray photograph won’t remember Pearl's convoluted side quest of these games. Even if the question still nags at her every time she sees the swarms of media that suddenly seem to be everywhere at the games.
Except a day later she gets a call from Iskall as she is walking into the stands for Canoe Slalom. Which is not only an event, but apparently an event Australia is actually pretty good at.
"Hello? Iskall is-"
But before she can get a word in edgewise, he's already talking, voice moving a thousand miles an hour.
"Halo. Go down the stairs on your left right now."
She turns, staring at the stairs on her left, and at this point suddenly remembers that she has no memory of ever giving Iskall her number.
"How do you know where-"
"Your location. I shared it. You're there. At the danger canoe race. Go down the stairs."
"What the fuck? Why did you share my location with yourself, we just-"
"For this reason. So I could know if you were near him. You need to go down the stairs on your left right now because he is there. The guy who took the photo. Go to the photographers. Ask for Mumbo."
"Mumbo?"
"Yes. Mumbo. Go. He's there."
And just as abruptly, the call ends, leaving Pearl reeling.
"What just happened?" Tango asks as he and Gem just stare at her, the only 3 people standing still in the crowd shuffling towards their seats before the start of the event.
Pearl looks at her phone, and then back at the staircase on her left.
"I think the guy who took that picture is here."
"The diving photo you're obsessed with?" Gem asks, raising an eyebrow at her, but Pearl is still looking down at the stairs.
"Yeah. That was False's friend's that we met."
"The Swedish guy? How did he know we were-" Gem starts, but before Pearl can overthink the insanity of not just the phone call, but of this entire insane quest, she turns.
"I'm going to find him."
And she pivots to her left, striding down the stairs two at a time.
"Well of course we're coming with you!" Gem calls after Pearl, the sound of her and Tango's steps echoing after her.
Iskall is right, the press boxes are for the photographers are just down the stairs, and maybe that’s the only reason she gets to the edge of the barricade and shouts out "Mumbo!" into the dozen or so bodies pressed together facing the river.
She watches the shoulder of one guy stiffen before he lowers his lens, straightens up, and turns to look at her.
"Did you take the picture of me?" She calls over the click of cameras and the rush of water from the river below.
The expression on his face shifts to confusion as he looks back at her.
"Maybe?" he says, gesturing with the camera still in his hand.
"This one."
She shoves her phone towards him, the screen full of the image that she has stared at for so long over the past few days. It still takes her breath away every time, how someone could so perfectly capture how it feels to execute a perfect dive. And now the only person who managed to do that might be right here in front of her.
He steps away from the crowd of all the other photographers, coming closer to get a better look at her screen.
He looks at the picture, looks at her, looks at the picture again, and then looks at her.
"That’s you." He says, as if it some sort of revelation.
"Yes. Did you take the picture?"
"Yes."
"How?"
"How?"
"Yes how. This is a fantastic photo. This is amazing. How did you do this?"
"I mean, well, it's quite simple really. The thing with sports photography, so you just have to know when there will be moments that have a good composition. And opportunity, of course, so sometimes…"
As he talks it registers that not only is he blushing as he nervously rambles on, but that he's actually pretty good looking. The photographer who took the photo that she's been obsessed with for a week is not some abstract artist or featureless face behind a long lens among a sea of other lenses. Suddenly it is the attractive guy in front of her who still hasn't looked up from her phone.
"My photos don't look that good though," Tango says, suddenly appearing next to her along the barricade.
"Oh! I know-I recognize you too, you're, you're one of the other-" the camera man stumbles out, finally looking up to dart his gaze between Pearl and Tango with a flash of recognition. "Well okay, so I take a lot of photos so there probably- I mean not all of them get published so there are probably some that are- I might also be a little biased because you-"
"Biased?" Tango says, tipping his head with a glint in his eye, and Pearl swears the camera man's blush deepens.
"Mumbo! You gonna chat all day or what?" a voice shouts from the crowd of photographs.
"I have to go so," Mumbo says, starting to turn back.
"No," Pearl says, reaching for his arm, pulling him back towards the barricade. He's blinking down at where her hand is wrapped around his forearm, but he's not pulling away
"I spent an entire week looking for you. You're not just disappearing on me. What's your instagram?"
"It's just my name. Mumbo. I mean its @ MumboJumboPhotography cause I'm, you know," he says with a nervous laugh as he gestures with the camera one more time. She can feel the muscles in his arm shift under her fingers as he lifts the camera.
"Race is about to start man!" come from the line of photographers.
"I really need to- but it was nice meeting you! Thank you for the- yes. It was really great to meet you!" he stammers out, and this time Pearl lets him go as he turns back towards the Canoe Slalom race.
When Pearl, Gem, and Tango finally make their way back to their seats, she immediately follows @ MumboJumboPhotography on Instagram. It's just so she can tag him in any post she makes with that photo. After all this searching, its the least she can do.
But when she DM's him later that night after a few drinks at the club Impulse and Skizz drag her to…well she still has a few days of free time left to kill in Paris. And he is pretty hot.

Hi there, Anon!
Thank you so much for requesting! I'm sorry this took so long. Hope you enjoy reading it. Feel free to request again anytime. :)
🛌🏻 Oh god, one can only imagine what sharing a bed with Laito’s like.
���🏻 I mean, most of his hobbies involve a bed.
🛌🏻 If you by any chance you happen to invite yourself into his bed, he’s more than amused and ready.
🛌🏻 In fact, it’s probably all he’d think about when the night rolls around if you told him during the day.
🛌🏻 Bear in mind tho that sharing a bed with Laito is quite different than you’d expect, especially since he’s alone with you in the privacy in his room.
🛌🏻 We all know he’s a pervert and one expects that he’d only do explicit things in his room or bed with his s/o.
🛌🏻 But realistically, he does a mix of things since he’s with a girl he really likes, he’s not solely focused on only having sex with her.
🛌🏻 So anyways, onto what he does.
🛌🏻 If you tell him that you’re sleeping in his room for the night, he goes all out.
🛌🏻 He dims the lights and has his room prepared for the occasion of you staying over with candlelight.
🛌🏻 Rose petals on his bed and around the bedroom floor, some romantic music in the background, even going down to feed you chocolates himself.
🛌🏻 He's all about making his girl feel special.
🛌🏻 "Laito, you don't have to do all this for me."
🛌🏻 "Nonsense, baby. Whoever is invited to my bed is my guest. It's only natural that they’re treated as such.” He’d smirk.
🛌🏻 Even serves and drinks wine/champagne with you in bed.
🛌🏻 He reads erotic French novels in bed lmao.
🛌🏻 He’d even read them to his s/o, and make them guess what certain lines mean, especially if they’re explicit in nature.
🛌🏻 “Je veux te manger (I want to eat you out). Can you guess what that means, baby?” He’d smirk.
🛌🏻 He’d even encourage you to repeat it with him to work on your pronunciation since he finds a girls struggling to pronounce a word cute.
I🛌🏻 In the end, he’d just end up kissing you as you’re trying to pronounce the phrase.
🛌🏻 He’ll even try to act out a scene from the book, giving you a small scene of drama. And if the scene is sensual/sexual, you best bet he’s going to act it out on you.
🛌🏻 Probably has a mini tv from the 1940s and watches old erotic french movies with you on it. It’s to keep the vintage aesthetic haha.
🛌🏻 And with this, since there’s erotic scenes, he’s definitely going to attempt the moves he sees in the movie on you.
🛌🏻 In the drawer of his nightstand, he keeps sex toys that can be used on him or you.
🛌🏻 Uses silk sheets on his bed because he believes that if he gets intimate, it increases the heat and “passion.” I mean, we all know how hot silk can get when there’s friction.
🛌🏻 Laito usually sleeps naked or in a man-thong that’s probably animal print, it’s either a leopard or tiger pattern.
🛌🏻 He doesn’t wear his hat to bed, but may put it on you since he thinks you look cute in it.
🛌🏻 But if you decide to tease him by taking it off him and wearing it in bed, he can’t contain himself.
🛌🏻 If there’s a spider on the wall, he’s going to start screaming and cling onto you for dear life, telling you to kill it.
🛌🏻 Meanwhile Subaru will tell him to shut up and stop screaming if he’s walking by his room since he thinks Laito’s having sex with his girlfriend. xDD
🛌🏻 Laito loves to talk about dreams he’s had and usually describes them in a sexual way even if they have nothing to do with sex.
🛌🏻 And he’s more than willing to hear out your dreams, especially if they’re sexual.
🛌🏻 He’s an open book, he’ll talk about his sexual escapdes with you, and encourages you to do the same since he likes to tell his lover everything.
🛌🏻 Instead of getting emo at 3am, he gets sexual.
🛌🏻 Sharing a bed with Laito involves roleplay.
🛌🏻 Which is where costumes come in and it's canon that Laito keeps a collection of female costumes... wtf.
🛌🏻 He has a bunch of sexy costumes he wants you to wear and he's dying to have you role play with him.
🛌🏻 He's probably got Christmas themed ones too. @liannelara-dracula and I swear he has a thing for Mrs. Clause lmao.
🛌🏻 If it’s not a sensual night, he has glasses on and is sitting on his bed beside you doing crossword puzzles.
🛌🏻 Gives you massages while talking about each others’ days.
🛌🏻 Might plug in an air diffuser before going to bed, a pine fragrance more specifcally.
🛌🏻 He ALWAYS wants you facing him, NEVER the other way around. He doesn't like it. He wants to see you.
🛌🏻 Likes to pull you into him and wrap an arm around you waist while whispering cute or minorly lewd things into your ears.
🛌🏻 He’s the little spoon all the way and he loves it.
🛌🏻 Likes to be hella close to you and prefers if your limbs are entangled with his.
🛌🏻 Loves to rest his head on your chest if he’s laying on top or next to you.
🛌🏻 He prefers that his lover puts a leg over him which locks him in.
🛌🏻 Gets very cold and snuggles up against you for warmth.
🛌🏻 He does like to grope your boobs, he does it even in his sleep as if it’s second nature to him almost.
🛌🏻 Laito sleep talks—he’s mostly mumbling about things he wants to do to you the next day.
🛌🏻 Takes selfies of him lying down with you in bed because he’s weird like that.
🛌🏻 Talks about making babies with you—like, he’s really interested in this sorta thing and what it entails.
🛌🏻 He likes to hold your hand and will kiss it before going to bed.
🛌🏻 If his lover is good at singing, he’d like it if she sings him to sleep.
🛌🏻 If you go to bed naked, he’s done and will not leave you alone.
🛌🏻 When you’re not spending the night in his bed, he happens to have a special track of recorded moans of you two from a past session, which helps him sleep at night if you’re not around.
🛌🏻 Afterall, Laito is the benefactor that hands out “moaning” tracts to his brothers.
🛌🏻 *cough* Shu in particular *cough*
🛌🏻 (Laito would never hand out the tracts between you and him tho, those are too special to him. He’d never let his brothers have those; it’s practically sacred property).
🛌🏻 Anyways—Laito will even listen to this special “track” of you and him if you’re laying beside him but are too busy to pay attention to him. It’s just a way for him to spend time since you’re occupied elsewhere.
🛌🏻 “I hope you don’t mind, baby, but I recorded us the other day.”
🛌🏻 “You did? Is that what you’re listening to now?” You’d question.
🛌🏻 Laito would smirk. “Of course. This is literally music to my ears.”
🛌🏻 “But why are you listening to that at this hour?”
🛌🏻 “Why, it helps me sleep.” He’d say.
🛌🏻 “But why would you listen to that when I could give you the real thing now?” You’d tease, his eyes widening as you sent his mind into overdrive at the idea.
🛌🏻 “Then I suppose there’s no time to waste.” He’d say, pulling you on top of him, being quick to escalate things, pulling you into a passionate kiss as his hands entangled themselves in your hair.

Hi, sorry for bothering you and feel completely free not to answer this if you don't want to or aren't interested in it anymore, but I just really like your Devil's Carnival AU and I'd love to know more about it so dropping some questions here 👀 sorry if they're too many!
1. How do you imagine Charlie's and Vaggie's relationship developing? They obviously meet in "After the fall", right after Vaggie's fall from grace, but when did they start dating? How did it happen? Since in canon one of the things Vaggie loves about Charlie is her kindness and compassion towards sinners, how does that translate into this AU, where Charlie is less sunshine-y?
2. Does your idea involve Lute being more like Cora or like the Agent? With this I mean whether she has feelings for Vaggie which she hides because they're "inappropriate and illegal" or if she's courting Vaggie because Adam asked her to as a way to expose Vaggie while she's internally praying for her not to do something stupid and prove Adam right. I think you kind of explained it already in your other post but I didn't fully get it 🥲
3. Slightly related to the previous one but how does Vaggie fall? Is it for the same reasons as June?
4. Have you thought of roles for characters like Husk, Alastor or Niffty?
5. What do you think would happen in this AU in a hypothetical 3rd movie?
Your art style is so beautiful btw! You're such a talented artist :)
You are literally doing the opposite of bothering me don't worry I got so excited seeing this ask in my inbox you have no idea fsgsghskbds i have everything under read more bc it turned out long but thank you so much for the compliment on my art and also for this ask !!!
1:
More or less vaggie and charlie getting together is closer to how it happened in hazbin hotel since i feel like part of it is the similarities of vaggie meeting charlie immediately after her fall and charlie still being kind and helping her which is the start of their connection, and overtime they grow closer and end up falling in love. I do like to think it did take them a while to get together but it was over the course of getting to know one another and their passions/dreams/ect that they began to truly understand who the other was and fall for them.
A little side note off of that which is relevant to understanding a less sunshiny charlie and how it translates to chaggie; with this particular role for charlie it has her mirroring aspects of both of her parents by design, but her character motivations are still very rooted in the fact that she is kind and believes in the good of sinners, heaven has just pushed her too far. Like even tho she's technically fulfilling lucifer's role from the devil's carnival, in doing so she's bearing more similarities to lilith's role in hell in hazbin in that she empowers sinners with her voice (in this case particularly any who've fallen from heaven since it seems like in the devil's carnival this was an occurrence that happened multiple times). And that kind of motivates her disdain for heaven to see how easily they cast out those who don't live up to their standards + with the obvious hypocrisy in how adam acts it makes her more disillusioned with the whole system altogether that heaven stands for and perpetuates (like lucifer hazbin hotel), which is what results in her saying 'fuck it' and just send sinners up there.
originally i was thinking the first movie didn't quite fit for charlie in lucifer's role because it does seem kind of cruel the way the sinners are tormented and it felt like it deviated from charlie's character, but i changed my mind after seeing the second bc i think it could read as a misguided attempt at redemption playing by heaven's rules of shunning what's perceived as sin (which we do see charlie try to do in the actual show) rather than her more trust exercises/team building route she goes for in hazbin. Like for charlie i think she'd genuinely think she's helping to try and get each of them to realize what sin they've committed for redemption's sake but hits her breaking point with heaven by the end. Probably from a mix of not fully believing some of the sins committed warrant eternal damnation (I feel like angel in particular with this one is especially sad because its unclear whether or not tamara ever does get sent to heaven/redeemed?) and being pissed at how hypocritical adam is by engaging in the same sins he's damning people to hell for. Charlie sending trains of sinners up isnt just a passive aggressive thing to do to heaven to shun her role as their torturer but also a statement that sinners and winners are one in the same-like she's completely giving up on trying for redemption within heaven's rules and just showing them that if they continue with this hypocrisy and cruelty, redemption is unnecessary bc these sinners fit right in as flawed as they are. I think this would also make Adam's damage control before 'bells of black sunday' especially insulting to charlie as well.
And vaggie sees that compassion in charlie when they first meet and she is kind to her in her lowest point, but realizes how much deeper it goes the more they get to know one another. In this AU also charlie knew from the beginning that vaggie was a former exorcist, but finding out why she fell was probably something that happened later on. (I do think the idea of them first starting to spend more time together by reading Aesop's fables to one another would be really cute too, like charlie likely reads stories to most new sinners to help with the transition to hell but vaggie shows so much genuine interest that it becomes a routine for them)
(Another side note; I think a scene in the actual film which supports a well intentioned charlie and works well for her character is the one with the devil and the ticket keeper towards the end of the second movie when the ticket keeper confronts lucifer about his plan. Like its vox yelling at charlie that heaven will try to fuck them up because of what she's doing, and him saying that he is the one who'll be standing on the tracks to push her out of the way, but charlie getting angry at this and saying she would never let him do that and that she will be on the tracks with him, and then she tells him her plan finally. I think this scene works well because it not only shows charlie's devotion to her ideas and to those she cares about, but also the disconnect between her intentions and her actions that could allow for the first movie's plot of torturing sinners to be born out of a want to help them. Because in this case she does have a well thought out plan and everything is done with intent, but vaggie is the only one who really knows this so to vox it seems like shes being reckless and impulsive due to how she's been acting, and heaven also isn't really understanding the message in the way she wanted.)
2:
With Lute and vaggie i think i have a clearer idea of what's going on now than when i first made the post in summary because i think lutes role is dependent on if we're talking in the plot or if we're talking in relation to vaggie. I think adam probably still wanted her to get closer to Vaggie and prove she wasn't worthy of heaven/it was a test of loyalty for lute to betray her but the feelings between them that developed were ones that Lute definitely deemed to be 'inappropriate and illegal'. I think they probably could have had their romantic moments between them still in secret but after getting found out and confronted by the watchword Lute realized because she had fallen for vaggie she was resigned to letting vaggie fall so she wouldn't have to deal with the fact that she loved her or get caught having a secret relationship with her. Like externally they present similarly to the agent and june with their respective roles in the narrative, but in terms of who they are to one another it's was closer to what cora and june had going on.
With their plot as well I feel like some of the heaven caste system needs to be examined/adjusted so it better fits them, but I haven't had the time to dig into it as it exists in the film enough that I feel comfortable deconstructing and reconstructing it just yet. Definitely working on it though !
3:
And going off of this I think when vaggie fell Lute took the opportunity to make it look like she had acted calculated and callously this whole time as to maintain adam's respect as well as prove her loyalty, when in reality that was very much not the case and she did really care for vaggie at one point but forced herself to hate her because of what loving her would mean. I also think vaggie's fall would be something tied to kindness rather than ambition because it follows more closely to what happened in hazbin and also would probably endear her to charlie more when she finds out (and make her angrier at heaven), but Im also not 100% sure what that would look like in terms of how it plays out in the film.
4:
So I have thought a bit of nifty/alastor/husk though they are more unsure in who they'd be. I am kind of stuck on the idea of Alastor as the publicist in his more positive sense because I think it fits and i think it'd be cool to incorporate more physical radio aspects into his design in the same way that the publicist has the horn attached at his ear (plus mimzy can be there too as one of the songbirds). I do also like the idea of him playing the role of the watchword to some extent (just keeping it solely to radio) bc he loves drama. Partly because I think it fits to let him be in heaven but still be an absolute menace to the general public, and partly because i think its funny to keep Al and Vox separated like toddlers who will start a fight with one another if left alone for too long. I had thought about having vox as the watchword and alastor as the publicist, but I kind of like the 'charlie works with the vees' plot a bit too much to separate vox from them. With Husk and Niffty I go back and forth on who they'd play, partly bc when i was originally brainstorming this au with a friend we thought husk could be the hobo clown but that was also when we were thinking Alastor as Lucifer's role instead of charlie (and this was before I had watched the second movie so the cast overall was very different) so im not entirely sure. If we're going with carnie roles for them i think husk as the hobo clown or the magician i can live with and niffty as one of the bayonets maybe. But having Alastor in heaven kind of throws off the dynamic so im unsure fully where to put them.
5:
The idea of what would happen in a third movie is SO INTERESTING and I hadn't even thought about it. I think part of this AU deviates from the movie to be more chaggie focussed so I imagine a third movie could focus more on their relationship as well, maybe even delving into them bonding over their shared plan to overthrow heaven and we'd get to see that development of the plan/their relationship in the flashbacks with the present being them actually enacting their plan. Like they are a power couple and share each other's passion, and theyre really the only 2 who actually know what the plan is. I think by this point vox would have been told the plan by charlie in the previous movie so he would have to also help get the carnies organized and on board. There'd also have to be some scenes in heaven with Adam losing it as his control of heaven falters, plus finding out whats going on with the sinners sent to heaven. Really theres just a ton of possibilities since the actual third movie was never made.
#This whole AU kind of started because I was listening to 'grace for sale' and was like 'There has got to be a way this works with hazbin'#and that spiralled into talking with a friend about it until we figured bits and pieces out#and then I watched the second movie and at that point was like 'ok wait hold on a second-'#and then it was just an excuse to redraw screenshots from the movie since im obsessed with the way they do lighting#but it spiralled into a full blown au bc i have brainrot#and I will forever be tweaking it and analyzing it now bc its so fun and the more i talk to others about it the more developed it gets#its lasting as long as this special interest lasts which based on my track record will be comically long#also tumblr user chaggiehearts i hope you know i read and cherish all of the tags you put on the art when you reblogged it and part of this#ask was easy to answer bc i had already typed up some of the responses to what you put in the tags to message you about acuacjcfj#so if you'd ever want to discuss more my DMs are always open asfjidcfjn#the devil's carnival au#the devils carnival#hazbin hotel#chaggie#fallenwings

HOT DAMN ITS BEEN A MINUTE! I know I’m sorry y’all life has just been all up in the way for the past couple weeks/months but I’m back now! It’s late where I’m at so I will get started with the Matchmaker post as soon as I can but for now please enjoy this head cannon thing I wrote for y’all, it’s been in my drafts forever now but I figured sure why not, let’s finish it up and post part 1! Terribly sorry about my sudden disappearance but I have found that nothing quite fills the void more than being on here and sharing experiences with all of you! Thank you for you patience I do apologize once again, you have all been tremendous and I love you for it.
Without further ado let’s get in to it!
Recently I went to the fair and the entire time I could only think about how the Hashira would act. Therefore I decided to write and I hope you all enjoy. (Me from the future here, went to the fair and had an amazing time! Enjoy some pictures! More at the bottom)
Btw this is all based on my opinion and has no actual evidence to back it up.
Warnings: Sanemi traumatizes entire fair. But no seriously like heights, someone almost falling off a ride. That’s it tho.
PLEASE ENJOY!
The Hashira at The Fair
Part 1!
Kyojuro Rengoku:
I love Rengoku, everyone knows that. He is my comfort character, my baby daddy, if you will. So maybe I am partial but I think he would be one of the funniest characters at the fair, let me elaborate.
In my belief, he would be in charge of the entire operation. He buys the tickets, he organizes it, he rallies everyone together, but most of all he is there to ensure that everyone has a good time AND a safe time.
“Seat belts everyone!” *in ms. Frizzle’s voice*
Think I’m playing? Absolutely not. Rengoku is on the ball when it comes to height requirements and restrictions, too tall or too short that’s too bad.
Seatbelts? Don’t make me laugh. Before the ride starts Kyojuro is running and making sure all seatbelts are up to code and are fastened. He does not care if you battle some of the most violent and horrid demons there are, you will be safe at the fair.
Will question the structural integrity of the rides themselves.
Kyojuro. They are consistently taken down and put up in a span of a week, there will be stuff missing and there will be issues. It’s best not to ask.
Nevertheless he does end up having a good time. He throughly enjoys the rides that are as follows: The Scrambler-you get into these little booths and it moves around really fast in almost a star shape pattern. Whole lot of fun, one of my favorites. The Alien Abduction- it’s just an alien ship shaped building that spins around really fast. The g force sticks you too the wall. Really fun, kinda dizzy afterwards (much like sleeping with Kyojuro). And then finally The Nitro. It’s essentially a huge swing, but it’s like a swing on steroids. It’s really fast and sends you really high, this one is prolly my favorite.
Kyojuro is pretty tame when it comes to trying all the rides and when it comes to others being too short or too tall for one of the rides, he feels that he should stay beside them and keep them company so they don’t feel left out. He really wants to make sure everyone had a good time.
On terms of food served at the fair, I think he would really enjoy funnel cakes. That isn’t to say he didn’t eat atleast one of everything. (Him and Mitsuri spent a lot of time trying the fair food. They ate 6 funnel cakes. The poor people working at the food trucks were beyond stressed with how much they were eating and buying. The lemonade guy couldn’t keep up😔).
On the subject of games, Kyojuro enjoyed the darts and ring toss. Extremely good at both and as a result came home with a ton of stuffed animals. The biggest one being a stuffed sloth. Very much enjoys his sloth and let’s it sit next to his bed. (Cuddles with it sometimes, but nobody knows). Won a ton of prizes for Shinobu and Mitsuri. Gave a bunch to Gyomie as well for the kids at the orphanage. After a short talk it was decided that they come back the next day to bring the kids.
In conclusion these are the same people and you can’t tell me otherwise. 12/10 had a great time and will be coming back.
Uzui Tengen
Oh man, Uzui Tengen and his wives at the fair. Be still my heart.
Number 1. BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT HOW GOTDAMN CUTE THIS SHIT FINNA BE.
Number 2. Let’s not lie to ourselves or anyone else by denying that Tengen and the girls are literally the cutest relationship I’ve ever seen.
So y’all already KNOW that they gonna be having the most fun, well almost. Let me explain.
Ok so we know that Suma can be a little skittish, and Makio kinda makes it worse if I’m not gonna lie simple because when Suma does get nervous Makio can be a little harsh.
Which then results in Tengen feeling more of babysitter rather a husband taking his wives out for a fun evening. I know you maybe wondering where I’m going with this but please, bear with me.
The Ferris Wheel. A staple of the amusement industry, all with its bright lights and soaring heights, it’s no wonder it’s one of the most iconic and recognized piece of fair equipment. That being said, if you have never riding on a Ferris wheel, I do not recommend it for the faint of heart. Not it is not fast, and no it doesn’t sling you around like some of the rides, but if you have a fear of heights or just not prepared, the ride itself can be a bit jarring.
Therefore, when Tengen and his wonderful, beautiful, lovely wives all got on to the ride, it was at that moment Suma had begun to sweat. First the booth went up and then stopped, and then again, and again and again, till they were at the very top of the ride. Of course Tengen wasn’t nearly as impressed because he could jump higher than the peak of the Ferris wheel but still he acted as if he was enjoying himself. Everyone was except for Suma.
Suma clung to Tengen’s arm, this in return caused Makio to fuss. As the two of them got into it, the booth started to sway back and forth. This of course caused Suma to become even more scared.
The rest of the ride was spent trying to calm both of them down.
Btw Kyojuro was sweating the entire time as they were not adhering to the rules of The Ferris Wheel.
Absolutely shameful.
Eventually the Ferris wheel ride ended. Suma in tears, Makio still fussing all the while Hinatsuru and Tengen desperately tried to separate the two.
Rest of the evening went off without a hitch, every one of the girls got a large stuffed animal. (Tengen won these at one of those strength games. Yk the one with the big hammer and a bell at the top). (He broke it).
They all four took really cute pictures together, in fact they got several with all the hashira! 11/10 wonderful evening will definitely be coming back to the fair, next time he will be prepared for if and when Suma gets scared on the Ferris Wheel or other tall rides.
Gyomei Himejima:
Oof alright.
So.
He’s a big man, like a VERY big MAN.
7 feet 2 inches and HALF! THATS A BIG DUDE.
And I’m sure you could already understand that yes, he unfortunately wasn’t allowed on many of the rides. But☝️. He found other ways to enjoy the fair!
Let me tell y’all, this man is a BEAST at fair games. Ring toss? Boom, undefeated. Darts? Bodied. Cornhole? Didn’t even faze him. Dunk the clown? Dude shoulda just stayed in the water bc either way he was gonna get there with Gyomei throwing strikes every time. He was doing so well that carnies were getting mad. Not only that a crowd had eventually formed around him; watching in utter astonishment as the giant man (blind, giant man, was ABSOLUTELY BRUTALIZING THESE GAMES).
More specifically…the dart throwing incident.
Let me set the mood for ya. Kinda give you a bit of a visual explanation as to better explain the where, when, who, for this scene.
The sun had long set, the cool night air filled with laughter and excitement as the fair continued into the evening. Lights, music, the cacophony of peoples voices, and the smell of fried foods are what make up the atmosphere of the game booths and rides. Except for one game at the far end of a long and winding path of fair games. There an unusually large man stood with three darts in his hand. One by one he carefully picked them out and threw them towards the board. Each bullseye had a little red balloon in the center, every line had a number of prizes one could win. But if one were to hit directly in the center they would win a large prize. You had three chances to win a big prize, the target to the left, the target in the middle, and the target to the right. If someone were to hit all three bullseyes they would not only win three big prizes but they also win an extra three chances.
Kyojuro explained the rules to Gyomei and handed him the darts. Not a moment after that three distinct pops could be heard ring out in the surrounding area.
A hush fell over the people who were waiting patiently behind him, even the woman who ran the booth seemed amazed at Gyomie’s win. She allowed him to pick out three large stuffed animals and handed him the darts back.
Once more balloons were blown up and set into position, Gyomei played again.
POP!
POP!
POP!
The woman turned to see that once again all the balloons had been popped, all three darts sat perfect in the center of each target. She was flabbergasted! She couldn’t even speak, it was rare as it was seeing someone who could hit all three targets but dead center 6 times in a row?!?! She shook her head looking at Gyomei and then back at the board, once more at Gyomei and then again back at the board.
Once she regained her composure she removed the darts, filled the balloons again, and handed the darts to him.
“Well done! Let’s see if you can do it a third!” She said, she eyed him closely as she was sure something was amiss.
Now the line of people behind him turned into a small group surrounding him, they all whispered and talked amongst themselves as they watched him carefully.
Silently Gyomie picked out his darts and threw them one by one.
POP!
POP!
POP!
The crowd erupted in cheers! He had done it again! The woman now clearly sweating as Gyomie had only spent 1 dollar and had won 9 prizes! Suddenly the people that stood next to him began throwing dollars and quarters at the woman, screaming that she give him the darts and let him play again.
As more commotion began to erupt, more people were gathered to the booth to watch him play. Some of the other fair goers even went as far as placing bets on Gyomie, wagering when the woman running the booth would eventually kick him out as she was running out of balloons and prizes.
Gyomie played a perfect game 6 times before Kyojuro thought it best to go play another game. He won 18 prizes from that game alone😐. They went to the ping pong in a bowl game, he won 12 goldfish.
At the end of the night Gyomie had more prizes THAN ANYONE IN THE HISTORY OF FAIR GAME PLAYERS EVER WON. So many in fact he stood next to the Caterpillar roller coaster for the kids and gave out a toy for every kid that came by.
That night Gyomie became more than a Hashira. He became a martyr, a light for those who had been burned by sleazy fair games, never again would they lose hope as it was he who came and won them all.
13/10 he had an amazing time, but cried when the lady said he was too good and needed to play another game. He felt bad and later came back to apologize and she gave him a hug. He cried once again.
Sanemi Shinazugawa
He is immediately kicked out.
Jk jk but like fr tho👀 he acted a fool.
Not even gonna lie to y’all, yall see this man, no but do y’all really see this man. He is 5 foot 10 inches of pure malice. (He’s soft baby on this inside but this is not important to the story). Straight menace behavior, DO NOT TELL ME IM WRONG.
He cut every line, and when people tried to protest to this he only turned around and glared at them with his cold eyes🥶 most people would stare back and tremble in terror, one man even began to weep as he looked into Sanemi’s eyes. The man later mumbled that he had peered into hell and hell peered back. (The man was traumatized for lack of a better term, needed therapy, he’s doing better now tho).
Sanemi rode every ride and played every game, he even got into a fight with one of the clowns! (In Sanemi’s defense the clown had it coming). But besides all that Sanemi found most enjoyment out of terrifying the other participants on the rides. In one instance, he turned to the woman sitting next to him and offhandedly mentioned that the seat she was sitting in didn’t latch all the way. As it was theses seats for this specific ride had a bit of give to them when you pushed the pull down part of the harness. She instinctively pushed the bar and it moved a bit before clicking, she turned to look at him and before she had the chance to alert the ride operator, the ride began to swing.
Once the ride had finished the woman was convinced her life had nearly ended due to a faulty ride harness. She immediately got off the ride and ran into the crowd, but her fear wasn’t entirely that of the ride’s seats, it was partially because as she started to scream and beg for dear life, Sanemi erupted in laughter. The scariest part was being seated next to him for the entirety of the ride.
This some how only fueled his behavior. Next he wanted to take it to the next level. He wanted to scare everyone, the people on the ride, the operators, even those who weren’t riding. Each ride he got on he made an effort to terrify everyone. Whether it be him yelling that ride was falling apart or dropping pieces of nuts and bolts close to the operators. This only aroused his hunger. He needed to take it one step further.
There is a ride called The Umbrella, The Octopus, The plane ride, whatever you want to call it, it’s the same ride. It’s giant tower that has a bunch of swings hanging from it, first it starts of slow and low to the ground, it is then risen off the ground and high above the pavement in which it begins to swing faster. This is a VERY tame ride compared to others as it isn’t extremely fast and it’s also not extremely high when compared to the Ring of Fire (one of Sanemi’s favorites although it did make him slightly sick) and the Ferris Wheel (got bored and started throwing nuts and bolts off the side, surprisingly didn’t hit anyone but as people noticed what they assumed were parts that had fallen off the ride, left the line in search of something “safer”). Sanemi cut to the front of the line and went to find the perfect swing, one was wrapped in caution tape and the seat belt was no longer there. Quickly and quietly he removed the tape and sat down, wrapping what little remained around his waist as it then would appear he did have a seatbelt on. The operator came by and only glanced at Sanemi before going to start the ride. He sat back and chuckled knowing he was going to enjoy this more out of any other he had been on that day. Slowly the ride started and before long he was hoisted several meters from the ground, swing softly through the cool air. He took in a deep breath to savor the moment, it was relaxing being so far up from the chaos, listening to the music and watching the bright colorful lights. Without a moments notice he slipped from the seat and began to scream.
The people below looked up to one of the most horrifying sights there was to see, up in the air a man hung from his swing, his hands gripping to one of the chains that held the swing. He writhed and kicked his feet as he yelled for someone to help. Most if not all began to scream and point. Others got the attention of the operator who hurriedly tried to lower the ride. Every passenger aboard that night gripped their seats and cried. Soon the whole fair watched with bated breath, parents shielded their children, others ran to get help, most stared in shock. The whole while Sanemi cackled in between screams.
The authorities were notified and by the time they arrived with paramedics on scene, the ride had ended and Sanemi was nowhere to be found. This was because he fled and hid himself within the crowd, he caught up with Kyojuro and Gyomie. He played several games with them, all the while Kyojuro was blissfully unaware of the Sanemi’s failure to abide by the rules of the fair rides the main one being, KEEP HANDS AND FEET INSIDE THE RIDE AT ALL TIMES. (Truth be known, Sanemi did in fact have his hands in the ride with the only exclusion being his entire body).
(Sanemi also wanted to play the strong man big hammer game but Tengen had broken it earlier so it was still under repair. He was a tad disappointed and this is what I choose to believe started this entire fiasco).
10/10 had a glorious time at the fair and might come back again someday, he narrowly avoided being escorted off the premises on several occasions so the fact that he didn’t is considered a win in my book. He also single handedly traumatized, horrified, terrified, and scarred an entire group of people spreading to several rides and the riders, operators, as well as the people below the rides themselves. All of this, without being caught by Kyojuro. Truly inspiring.

For anyone who's looking for good, well written saiouma stories ;)
Finished Long Fics:
Second Chances - Post Game fic where the game was virtual reality and everyone lives. Shuichi goes back to his apartment only to realize he had a roommate pre-game; Kokichi. VERY good highly recommend, it seems very boring at first but it's fucking HILARIOUS and very much slow burn. 10/10
Therefore you and me (as a result of living, as a result of dying): HONESTLY MY FAVORITE FIC EVER. it is post-game and everyone lives but throw in all their trauma (ACTUALLY realistically) and that Team Danganronpa is forcing them into their rehabilitate facility and absolute major angst and voila. the energy this fic gives me is to DIE for but im a slut for angst. emotionally damaging, indeed. 100/10
our deal: in-game fic where when kokichi stops shuichi in the virtual world in chapter 4 when he asks him to partner up, except shuichi says YES. this entire fic gives me anxiety and also makes me kick me feet like im delulu. character study + introspection are by far my FAVORITE ao3 tags. 12/10
Reaching: in-game alternate universe fic where kokichi, the mc, is stuck in a loop. whenever he dies, he wakes back up in the locker. OMG THIS ENTIRE THING IS SO GOOD. there's a twist with shuichi that you will NOT see coming. out of pure encouragement i will not say anything more abt this fic. 600/10
Deceit - The Phantom Thief: predictably, a phantom thief AU where shuichi, a detective, takes on the impossible case of the notorious phantom thief! i've read a lot of phantom thief stuff, but this one has a very solid plot line and HORRIBLY slow romance. like, the world seemed like it was going to end before they confessed. literally. 25/10
Sending Postcards from a Plane Crash: another slow burn fic bc im a whore for internal torture. basically the v3 cast survives a plane crash and are isolated on an island. they need to find a way off, but there are some strange irregularities on the island. like polar bears! (it's a tropical island.) everyone is characterized pretty well, but kokichi isnt villainized for the most part, which i like a lot. 10/10
I Reach Out My Hand, Yet He Doesn't Take It: OH. MY. GOD. if i said the other ones were emotionally damaging, this fic takes it to the NEXT FUCKING LEVEL AHAHA. this.... hurts :') but in a good way i think. another post-game fic where everyone survives except this time danganronpa wasn't a game show and the other two games plots were actually happening. it's SO GOOOOOD. and sad. pls read it.
Porcelain Parasite: i havent actually finished this one, but it's a royal AU where shuichi basically gets sold by his parents to kokichi's parents, who are like royal people. and kokichi is kinda weird bc i think he gets cursed by junko. not sure ahaha. ITS GOOD THO. some of the parts scared the heebie jeebies outta me. had me scared for their lives actually. if you like stuff like this its the only fic of its saiouma kind that's written well 👍
Temptations: VERYYYY smut heavy, so if you're not into that i don't recommend this. but if you are.... this is where you belong, brothers. it's in-game and kind of enemies to lovers at the beginning, but shuichi doesnt take very long to move past "hating" kokichi LMAO. very angsty.... and sad. my heart breaks consistently while reading this </3 definitely and owie fic but still very very good. 58388583/10
lies (and how to unravel them): TW for eating disorders throughout the entire fic- like it's the main focus. it was kind of hard to read for me bc it was so well described. shuichi is the one struggling with an ED, and while saiouma is a part of the fic, its main point is his struggles rather than him and kokichi. 10/10 but if you're sensitive to that kinda jazz, i dont recommend this
Sexy Singles in Your Area: the entire first three chapters of this fic is just entirely second hand embarrassment. im talking the worst second hand embarrassment of my LIFE out of all the shows ive seen and books ive read. its so bad fhejgj. it's a very funny and cute fic but also shuichi is DUMB. dumb dumb dense and dumb. also, it has a bunch of angst. cute but angsty. i would say its relatively light however. kokichi is characterized very well, which makes it even better <3 10/10
Everyone's Killing Reality: it's everything you want and more. in-game saiouma where the author changed a bunch of things from the danganronpa game that fucking SUCKED ASS. this is so good bc it satisfies my poor saiouma heart while also making the plot simultaneously stronger. this fic is canon idc what anyone says. 1000000/10
Coastline Massacre: solider au that gave me a bajillion heart attacks while reading it. THIS MADE ME CRY. A LOT. just thinking abt it is making me sad holy shit. 40/10 but oh my GOD beware of the goddamn PAIN you will feel while reading this.
Stay With Me: omg a fic without angst?!?! and a lot of smut. if it isnt angsty its sex. real tears. very fluffy and smut heavy (and its GOOD). 15/10
Dawn Again on this Vibrant and Violent Night: literally just finished this read. OH. MY. GODDDD. i know im obsessing over everything else on this list but by far this is the best one. so fr rn!! the way this person writes is ASTONISHING. the plot had me on the edge of my seat the whole time, plot twist after twist, i SCREAMED at a few of them. its very much plot heavy and focuses on kokichi and shuichi, and it's also ingame. kokichi is characterized to PERFECTION, and im very picky abt how other people write kokichi. i was on the verge of tears throughout the second half of this not bc it was sad, but bc how well the tension was written and laid out. GEHAHFJD IM. I LOVE THIS FIC. MY WHOLE HEART <33 199293848757585885/10
Finished Short Fics:
i consider "short" to be from 10,000 words to 70,000 words. so 😍
you've got the right to remain right here with me: phantom thief au where kokichi is looking for a new roommate to live with (cuz his dumbass got evicted). but kaede hooks him up with shuichi, the detective who is actively chasing his case. so now kokichi is living with him and somehow avoid getting caught <3 all my heart, angsty and fluffy, SO ADORABLE OMG. pls read its worth it
arisama, arisama: in-game alternate plot where instead of the time limit as the motive, it's the despair disease. kokichi has the gullible disease and i find it fucking hilarious. kinda bittersweet ending but its still cute— i would say light angst.
Where the Music Meets the Ocean: again i think this is light angst but some may disagree— alternate universe outside of the killing game where kokichi finds out that shuichi is some sort of mermaid thing- IDK it was never specified exactly what he was. but yeah its very cute and kokichi is a bit of a reckless dummy
Searching for Redemption: in-game universe where no one actually dies for the sack of saiouma and nothing else, there's no real plot logic, but not in a bad way. it starts out smut heavy but gets kinda angsty/fluffy, so i highly recommend it lol. also by one of my favorite ao3 authors 😍
Unextinguished Embers: ok im very much used to plot twists and what not, but the plot twist in this made me SCREEEEEAM. genuine shock. this is a fantasy AU where The Tragedy was about Junko being a sorcerer and basically giving sorcerers a bad name bc she was evil. they were all eradicated except.... one (its kokichi spoiler). shuichi meets him and OOPS you'll have to read it yourself ;P ITS SO GOOD PLS
Pirates of the Caribbean: Vault of the Pirate Lords: if you like pirates and Johnny Depp then you will def like this. it's kinda based off the movies but not really, it has a different plot line. shuichi is the governor's kid and kokichi is a pirate- kokichi kidnaps shuichi but for some dumbass reason he's enthusiastic abt it???? like why are you excited to be kidnapped. weirdo!
Unfinished Fics:
now i don't normally read unfinished stuff but im running out of content 😭😭 send help
fool me twice: alternate universe au where shuichi's ex from high school is kokichi, and now they're both 22 and working at the same place and shuichi is STILL a bitch abt him and kokichi's history. unfinished but so far it's pretty damn good. kokichi and shuichi are so perfectly characterized it's maddening
that's all for now but PLEASE if you have something not on this list that i can read TELL ME. i've read every finished long-fic on ao3 and even wattpad at this point. begging so hard

Ah shit ah fuck. Theres immediately like 4 i wanna hear about. I feel like i should ask about forced pregnancy first tho bc i was just posting about my own wip that also has forced pregnancy in it - laz
This one is part of a series where I explore kinks I really enjoy but for some reason I rarely ever write about. It worked as it kind of "unlocked" forced pregnancy for me and I started using it in like... 3 or 4 fics lmao.
This in particular is an Omegaverse in which Dick gets abducted together with a bunch of other Omegas, and kept under strict observation for a while (and also forcefully given various drugs and experimented on while partially sedated). Unbeknownst to him also a bunch of Alphas have been abducted and tests are run on the individual subjects to get them paired with the "fittest candidate", then a very powerful artificial heat/rut gets triggered for all the "couples". Dick gets paired with Slade of course. He does get pregnant and he's allowed to be with Slade initially, but at some point they try to separate them to keep experimenting on Dick and his unborn pup, although at this point Dick and Slade fight back and manage to get themselves out of there.
Dick is in severe PTSD after all of this (the whole ordeal lasted months and he's been in isolation for most of them, he also has very faint but very traumatic recollections of when he got sedated and variably probed), and Slade takes care of him for a while. They realize that the pup is growing more slowly than the average (bc of the experiments this is not going to be a normal pup), and at some point Dick kind of snaps out of it and decides he doesn't want it, and he can't deal with having this alien thing inside of him any longer.
Thing is. Slade disagrees, because this is also his pup, and from taking care of Dick he switches to actively keeping Dick prisoner, and forcing him to carry the pregnancy to term (they are both unaware that this is also a result of the experiments and Slade is not thinking clearly or acting normally, and the idea of losing this pup sends him into an almost berserker rage. This is something Dick will realize at some point, but it's not like knowing it helps).
I haven't decided how it ends, if the pup gets taken away soon after they're born, or if Slade and/or Dick actually raise them. I have in fact only written the beginning of this lol. I accept suggestions!
#obvious but I prefer to add it anyway#cw forced pregnancy#experiments on a pregnant person#mentions of abortion#thanks for asking laz ♥#my asks#wip ask game

Sooooo... it's time for my rants again! But i don't want to talk about exams or Jegulus... I want Bartylily!
At first I was like: "There are people who ship it?! Okay, weird..." and then... and then I thought about it and thought about it and thought about it.... and then I thought even MORE about it! And now I totally get it! It's just so sad that there aren't much fanfics about it, which is also the reason why I'm just more excited about "academic weapon" (no pressure)!

I KNOW !! WE DEFINITELY NEED MORE FICS !! and i also i need more time to read the ones i haven't read yet.. hopefully next month since i'm gonna be on holiday for a couple of weeks!!
