you two should just hug this out.

[ID: three gifs of Eddie Diaz and Evan Buckley from 911 episode 8.09.

GIF 1: Eddie staring at Buck earnestly, with a wrinkle between his brows. His eyes are big and wet, mouth pursed like he's holding back emotion as he listens to Buck say, "Listen when Blaze jumped into her arms, I wasn’t sad. I was happy. Cause he was going to where he belongs."

GIF 2: Buck smiling at Eddie as he continues saying, "And thats why, I’m happy for you. Cause you’re going back to where you belong - with Christopher." His head is slightly tilted as he watches Eddie.

GIF 3: Eddie nodding once, his mouth twitching into a small, watery smile as he blinks back tears, nodding once gratefully at Buck.

/end ID]

bonus:

[ID: two gifs of Buck and Eddie hugging. The first has Eddie sniffing, working his jaw to hold back tears as he moves forward to wrap Buck in his arms, his mouth pressed against Buck's shoulder for a brief second. The second has Buck smiling wide from over Eddie's shoulder, holding him tight before letting go. Eddie turns to face the rest of their friends with pressed smile. /end ID]

pov: that new cotl animated short

funny idea where Shen Yuan transmigrates into a cute colorful lil world and his system tells him to collect data on bunnies, and not just any bunnies- beast bunnies

He thinks its cool, like omg theres this one bunny w dark fur and lil horns!! Omg its so cute, and this one has wings..!! And this one- its glowing! Its literally so cute!!

So he's in beast heaven where his goal is literally just Gotta Find Them All and optionally record their behavior for extra d-points! (D standing for data <3)

Eh, downside is he cant really use his left arm cuz he hasn't unlocked dual maining yet... but he'll get to it soon! For his bunnies!!

but! Theres evil creatures trying to eat his precious bunnies while he's researching them...!! His system tasks him with getting rid of these corrupted devourers to protect his defenseless bunnies-

well they're not all defenseless but the ones who CAN protect themselves are rare and most of what he has are just precious babies hiding behind him!! So, he takes up the missions and fight the evildoers!

Hey, but wait a minute- system, why are the devourers just.. pirate carrots?!

Oh, hey atleast he got a weapon!

Crack crack, boom!! He defeats the corrupted devourers- er, carrots- but wait, something sparkles in the corner of his eyes... he trims through the bushes and finds- another bunny?

[You have discovered Haze-Coated Dreams!]

His eyes were wide and shining because WOAH omg this bunny was majestic! It had a light shade of green and like, cute wind patterns! Theres even a little star pattern on its head!

But... aww, poor thing is trembling, it was so small too, probably just a baby. His heart clenched at the thought that those devourers were gonna eat something so cute... he looked around, though he cant seem to find its mother. They were probably eaten by the devourers...

He sighed and decided to just take the bunny in! More d-points for him!

He gently picks it up and cradles it in his arms.

[You have acquired Haze-Coated Dream!]

_____________________________

Xiao Jiu ran as fast as he could, trying to get away from monsters that sought for his flesh and blood.

But it was futile, wasn't it? They were faster, stronger, and he was just prey.

It wasn't any better that his clumsy self tripped and sprained his ankles. Fuck.

His heart thumped wildly in his chest, he didn't want to die yet. Please.

If he could not run, he crawled. He crawled and hid in a large bush, hoping those demons had not seen him. Hoping that whatever god was up there was merciful and let him live. But then what?

He trembled in the cold, his body aching and hurting all over.

Why did it have to be him?

His breath hitched as he heard the sounds of cracking bones and tearing flesh. He trembled and hugged himself tighter, trying to get himself together.

Crawl, crawl damnit. Move. Anything.

Why did it have to be him?

He couldn't hide his fear when he so clearly felt a shadow loom over him. His instincts burned and screamed and made him look up, to see if the monsters had spotted him.

The bush was cut, and he was exposed.

No. No.. nonononono NO NO-

Please.

Xiao Jiu froze as he saw a bloodied man, arm ripped off and dry blood staining the ripped clothing.

The man- more demon-like than the actual demons he saw - approached him- no get away from me- and picked him up. And cradled him.

He couldn't do anything. He was scared, confused, angry- and.. helpless, in a lot of senses.

He wasn't willing to backdown without a fight however.

(It took sy 3 hours to put his disoriented bunny that was trying to fight him thinking he was probably one of the carrots to sleep. Poor baby.)

__________________

Anyways so yeah shen yuan thinks he got transported into a beast bunny heaven

Literally everyone around him says otherwise, but oh no shen yuan doesnt speak bunny and carrot language unfortunately :(

Sy thinks he's a beast tamer and also he chops up all the carrots to feed to his bunnies (remember what carrots are?... yeah... his house is a bit... messy...)

Sy: omg new rare bunny type?!?!?!!! This is the best day ever.

Sj, traumatized asf: who are you..?!. (sy baba-beams him and he immediately (4 weeks) becomes his boy)

Sy serving his bunnies the chopped up carrots: eat up and grow big and strong!

Sj: (avoiding the "carrots" bc he is NOT eating raw flesh)

Sy, noticing sj avoiding the carrots: oh no, my baby still has trauma from that experience :( its ok, SYSTEM!!!! gimme recipes. Now.

Sy looking at the (dead) carrots: i wonder if i can eat this...

System: no!!! It is heavily advised against!!

Sy: huh? Why?

System, sweating and trying to find an explanation that doesnt reveal the carrots are literally just demon abomanations: .....theyre digestible only to the rabbits! Theyre toxic to humans like how chocolate is toxic to dogs!

Sy: (believing it) huh... that makes total sense.

if you're wondering what sy looks like in this au, in literally everyone else's POV he:

Has one arm, the other looks like it was ripped off

Has clothes that are bloody and dirty asf like he just got out of a bloodbath

Has dead eyes and a clawed out eye (referencing to the fact he sees the world like a cutesy place even tho it isnt LMAO system pulling so many strings)

Has a butcher knife

His okay-arm has spikes coming out of his flesh

So basically he looks like he got out of a slaughter/cruel lab but he loves his bunnies (monstrous pets with 1 lil very hateful kid) very dearly and no when he sees himself in reflection he just looks like a Normal Guy

This is just my excuse to make monsteryuan but slightly more insane

(this isn't a question about the best p&p adaptation ever, it is simply which you prefer OUT OF THESE TWO OPTIONS since they are the two most commonly talked about and compared!!)

[limnsaber]

can you believe there are still pencils in the ceiling

[dorkicon]

thinking about one of my favorite marvel pages again. not really in terms of narrative importance i guess, more just bc it hits on the hallmarks i enjoy in this particular arc:

1. straxus being a little bitch (look at that pose in panel two!)

2. marveltron in psychological distress (sorry buddy)

its also drilled the term 'optimus prime tulpa' into my head forever. because thats who straxus is feeling up. the optimus prime tulpa. optimus prime tulpa.

Putting more stuff for the split screen/beast bunny au

To be clear, Shen yuan sees himself as Normal Guy TM no matter where it is, be it lake or mirrors or basically anything that reveals himself. Its rly his vision that got fucked by the system lmao

He does unlock "dual maining" eventually, as in his 2nd arm. Its a bit cursed, since the second arm is made from a dead arm actually but was manipulated and revived by some dark art. Or well, it was made by a "carrot."

Basically, system made him find a very very specific "carrot" and made him kill it. He used the flesh and roughly formed it into the shape of an arm, a sharp blade on the end of the made arm. He lodged that blade into his own, connecting his flesh and the demon flesh. The demon flesh of the "carrot" started to regenerate due to the blade drawing shen yuan's unknown blood and merging with the demon flesh's own.

In shen yuan's pov, an arm magically appeared after he "chopped up some carrots for the materials" to make said arm. It looks great to him, but anyone else witnessing that scene would've been HORRIFIED.

Oh yeah the demon arm is blackened and charred, as well as having sharp bloody claws. So basically, he became even more of a monster !! But hey, he has two arms now. Yay!

Does shen yuan ever find out he sees things differently compared to others? Haha, no idea. Maybe he will, maybe he won't!

The system decides, afterall.

Will shen yuan ever be able to communicate with the "bunnies"? Yeah he loves his babies very much.

Yes he still gushes about other monsters and yes other monsters exists, the "carrots" only appear when the system deems them an "enemy"

but... how would that work?

A flickering figure, tripping between orange and gray.

"Baba?.."

the blur spoke, a reaching hand towards Shen Yuan. What?

They continued to flicker, the system undecided and unresponsive. Was this an illusion? A new devourer type?

He wasn't gonna take any risks, so he assumed so and tried to attack.

The devourer dodged it, albeit sloppily, barely making it.

I won't miss the next time.

He swung his butcher's knife, though the devourer kept dodging and even got a hit on him. He was getting kinda frustrated, until he remembered he has a new arm now!

With his realization, he quickly grabbed the devourer using his new arm and pinned it down, the knife to its barely seen panicking face.

before he could cut the carrot though, his system blaired at him.

[ERROR!] [ERROR!] [ERROR!]

What?

"-BA"

"-BABA!"

An unclear voice like a dream snapped him out of it, and when he looked down; his bunny? Oh fuck.

He quickly let go and saw how scared his green bunny was. Guilty, shen yuan scooped up the teary-eyed bunny and gently cradled it, muttering apologies.

Eh, but wait.. did it just call him "baba"?!

And suddenly he was convinced they have a special connection.

The system rung up,

[host has prevented the illusion 'Unseen' from making you hurt your bunnies.]

[10 d-points has been given.]

Hm, well shen yuan supposes it was easy enough to figure out, but did he seriously need to traumatize his baby? But then again thats the illusion's fault, he has nothing to do with it except being another victim. Sigh~

Now that he thinks about it, why did the figure look faintly human?

Eh, well it was an illusion, so who cares?

And then in sj's pov its like, his baba cuts up another demon. But then, he started cutting it up into mesh, and was forming it into something, something that looked eerily like an arm.

He stuck his extra blade into it and holy fuck did he just stabbed himself?!-

And then the arm made by the flesh of a demon suddenly regenerated into his baba's arm and the next thing he knows is that his adoptive dad struggled to stand and breathe.

He was worried only for a bit because the next, his baba looked at him, and fucking tried to kill him.

Atleast shen jiu managed to snap him out of it, so now his worrisome and scary monster was hugging him and muttering unintelligibles that felt like apologies.

No amount of apologies can make up for that jumpscare but thanks dad.

oh also, the bunnies could be either beasts or human. The rarer ones were always human though, or atleast human kids.

To seperate the 2 so that either the humans wont kill the demon beasts or the demons wont kill the humans, the system seperated it into 3 using traits.

Humans were always "haze", smth smth haze. Like shen jiu's being "haze-coated dreams." But that ones obvious, for a non obvious one lets use lqg as an example. Liu Qingge's could be "burning iron spirit" or smth and in the status lqg's bunny would have the trait "haze" alongside other traits.

Meanwhile, demons or specifically monsters that the system can consider friendly enough to be made bunnies would have the trait "beast", while demons as in ppl like mobei-jun would have the trait "demonic"

And the system would tell him that he needs to seperate them so their traits dont clash and make their life uncomfy

And who was shen yuan to allow his babies to suffer?!

___________________

System: kill this devourer to get its materials to make your arm

Sy: ayyy finally!

(Few minutes later)

Sj: wtf wtf wtf wtf

Sy: oops

System:

System: seems we encountered another monster (" > .>) —> (looks away)

Sy: damn that monster, made my poor baby scared :(

System, sweating: yeaaahhhh.... heres some d-points.

_________________

Shen yuan eats human food. He discovered demonic and haze bunnies only until later, shen jiu was his first haze bunny. The system tells him that haze bunnies have the same diet as humans because when they grow up they eventually take on a humanoid form, or well.. learn. The system needs an excuse to further reason why sj cant communicate afterall.

Haze coated dreams aka sj randomly transforming back into a bunny

Sy: ???

System who was trying to keep sj from spilling the beans: haze bunnies learn to maintain their humanoid form, but it doesnt last very long as their control is weak.

Sy: ah that makes sense.

Yes, shen jiu will be able to communicate with shen yuan eventually, but only when the system knows that sj is already used to sy's monster-esque appearance and wont infact snitch. (Or cant)

If needed, the system will js "haze" (censor) the revealing words in the form of sj speaking unintelligebles and convince shen yuan that his haze bunny was still learning how to speak.

Well, by the time the system cant use that excuse, it would've already fulfilled its goal anyway.

Anywayyyss yeah just some stuff in my head
