#verrrrry intrigued

[bellafragolina]

you dont know how many times ive thought about writing a fanganronpa fic with all my and everyone else's favorite pokecharacters,,, the Angst potential is ENORMOUS

Oh god. . . Oh god that would be so angsty. So good too. The twins, one brother dying and the other suffering. God, how heartbreaking.

Though if you ask me, since poor Emmet is suffering from Ingo getting Hisui’d, I’d flip the script for a fanganronpa, and kill off Emmet so Ingo suffers, but that’s just me

I’d love to read it if you write it! Please link it to me if you do!!

✨warnings: toxic minho, slightly suggestive at the end

Moon in Sagittarius:

• The Moon is the ruler of emotions. It is also who you could feel yourself to be, if all was stripped from you. Many people relate it to the “psyche” or the unconscious. It represents the parts of ourselves that are most fundamental, that we may not even understand. It also reflects our “baseline” energy that we radiate while sitting quietly, being content with our own company. It is the part of ourselves that we really want to be SEEN and understood, even if we do not see or understand it ourselves.

• Sagittarius is the mutable fire sign. They are passionate people who are deeply intrigued by the world around them. They are known for needing a sense of freedom and individuality. They do not like to be tied down. In the same regard, they value exploration, adventure, and meeting new people. They see others as unique individuals and can likely meet them wherever they are at emotionally. Sagittarius people are quick thinkers, witty, and fun-loving.

• Long story short: Moon in Sagittarius people can often have light-hearted, often shifting emotions. They do not like to feel like they are pinned down to any one place. They do not like being told what to do. They will, however, bring a fun element to any time of relationship- platonic or romantic. They are fiercely loyal and passionate about those they love. They do not always feel comfortable with their emotions, so they tend to be flighty and try to run away from this. This is not a great coping mechanism and can lead to a lot of problems in expressing themselves emotionally and what they need from someone else.

As your boyfriend:

• Minho takes you on the most fun, most elaborate dates ever. He’d always find cool new things to do. And of course, he’d want to take his favorite person with him.

• He loves going home with you to meet your parents and learn more about where you grew up. He may have a nature that doesn’t come across this way, but he would inherently love getting to understand you better and see new places.

• He wants to travel with you!!! He will take you literally anywhere you want to go. And when you do, it’s just your own little world. Just the two of you.

• You have the most intellectual conversations ever. He has a lot of abstract ideas about life, and he isn’t afraid to talk to you about them. He likes to know the way you think about it too.

• You have a core group of friends that you hang out with as a couple. It’s not too big of a group, but getting together with them and having a night to cut loose is super important to him. And he loves the fact that he gets to do it with you.

• Friday night, you started to get excited as you heard the keys jingle in the lock of your shared apartment with Minho.

• Today had been a really tough week at work, and all you wanted to do was have a nice relaxing weekend with your boyfriend to decompress.

• Well, if we’re being honest, you felt like you’d crumble away to nothing if you didn’t get it. The stress was that bad.

• “Hi jagi,” Minho greeted you as he came through the hallway to the living room where you were sitting.

• “Hey honey! Please come sit with me. I need to rant about my day,” you pouted.

• He pulled a wide smirk across his face. “Well now you sound like me,” he teased.

• He walked over to the couch and plopped down next to you, letting his hand rest on your thigh.

• “Okay, what’s going on?” he asked.

• “So you know how I told you about the girl I went to high school with who just started at work? The one that’s a bitch?”

• Minho laughed. “You think everyone you work with is a bitch.”

• “You do too,” you stared at him.

• “I do not! Jisung is alright,” he smirked again, knowing that one would get an eye roll out of you… And it did.

• “Anywayssss, that girl. I’m already overwhelmed with stuff I have to get done to meet my deadline at the end of this month, and then she strolls up asking if I can help her with all of her shit too. Knowing damn well how busy I am. I see her over there laughing her ass off on the phone all day long. If she’d stop, then maybe she’d get something done. And THEN, after I told her I couldn’t because I had a bunch to work through as well, apparently she went to one of the main managers and complained that I wasn’t a good co-worker. Saying that apparently I should ‘give her a hand since she’s new’… I mean who goes to a manager with that shit and doesn’t even do a damn thing all day? All she does is gossip and talk shit. So NOW, I have a meeting with our manager Monday morning to talk about it, AND she’s spreading this all around that ‘I’m so horrible to her.’ Like genuinely, the only thing keeping me sane right now was knowing that I was coming home to you.”

• “Aww honey, I’m sorry.” Minho took your hand in his and brought it up to his mouth to plant a kiss on the back of it. “I can cook or we can order some food in and have a good night together. Whatever you want to do tonight. Just let me know what you want.”

• “I don’t want you to have to cook. I really just want you here with me. Maybe we could order some take out and then do a movie? I’m just super drained. Maybe tomorrow we could do something more fun.”

• “Tomorrow? I have plans with the boys. Felix, Jeongin, and I planned a camping trip for the weekend. It sounded like fun. But whatever you want to do tonight, we’ll do.”

• You shot up off the back of the seat. Surely you heard him wrong.

• “You’re doing what tomorrow?”

• “Going camping with Felix and I.N…”

• “Well, it would have been nice if you’d talked to me about that sooner… Or, I don’t know, maybe have just asked?”

• “Asked what? Asked if it was okay?” Minho scoffed.

• “Well, yeah?” you replied, furrowing your brows in confusion and frustration. The fuck is he being like this?

• “Sorry, I didn’t know I needed to ask for your permission to hang out with my friends,” he said sarcastically.

• “It’s not ‘asking for my permission.’ I’m just asking you to check in with me first- to talk about it...- is that so awful?”

• “I mean I would say that telling me that I either am allowed or aren’t allowed to see my friends is pretty awful. I’m an adult, y/n. You’re not my fucking parent.”

• Your blood was boiling at this point. The last thing you wanted to do was to “parent” him. But goddamn, wouldn’t it be nice for him to just see if maybe you needed him for the weekend? Or maybe if there was something he forgot was going on? Or to just let you KNOW about it? Jesus fucking Christ, here we go again.

• “I’m not trying to ‘parent’ you. I’m not trying to tell you what to do. I’m just asking that you COMMUNICATE with me what you want to do so that I know in advance… And to be honest, I really don’t want you going.”

• “Here it is,” Minho rolled his eyes with an annoyed smile. “You always do this. The second I mention wanting to spend time with the boys, you’re suddenly all disapproving,” he let out a strained, sarcastic chuckle before clearing his throat. “I’m sorry if you ‘don’t want me going’, but you don’t get to tell me what I can and can’t do.”

• Minho let out a deep breath before putting his hands on his knees and using the pressure to pull himself to standing. “I’m going tomorrow. Let me know I guess if you want to spend time with me tonight.” He looked down at you before walking away to the bedroom.

• And then, the house went quiet. For a long time.

• At that point, you’d decided to just give up. Your boyfriend was a conceited asshole and there was nothing you could do about it. You were upset, but you knew that crying wouldn’t help. After all of this shit, you just wanted to sleep.

• Problem: Minho was in the bedroom. You were too exhausted to fight anymore, now not even hungry to think about dinner. Instead, you just balled yourself up on the couch and went to sleep with a resentful heart.

• An hour later, Minho came creeping out of the bedroom to find you lying peacefully on the couch. He bent down next to you.

• “Jagi,” he whispered, brushing his hand along your shoulder.

• “Jagi,” he said again, a bit louder this time. You stirred a little bit.

• “Honey, please wake up. I need to talk to you,” he said as he saw your eyes slowly open, a confused look coming over your face.

• You took your time to sit upright. Another conversation about his little "boy’s trip" was the last thing you wanted right now.

• “What is it?” you mumbled grumpily.

• “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said what I did earlier.”

• You didn’t say anything back. I mean, what could you say? It was the truth.

• “And I’m going to work on that. To work on talking to you about things better, I mean. Maybe I can have a hard time doing that sometimes.” He never would admit when he was wrong. But this was a start.

• You just looked at him, trying to give him a facial expression for him to go on. You weren’t satisfied yet.

• “And I decided I’m going to stay home with you instead. You need me more than the boys do.”

• “Okay, you don’t have to do that, Min. You can still go, but I just needed you to understand where I was coming from.”

• “And I do understand now. That’s why I’m staying with you. I made up my mind. That’s what I want to do,” he said with a proud smile.

• You let out a soft chuckle. “You’re always gonna do whatever you wanna do, huh?” you joked. You finally flashed him a smile. The first smile you’d had all night.

• He just looked at you with a grin, giving a little bit of side eye. “If that’s true, then what if I wanna do you?”

• You tried to tease him by pushing him away, giggling a little in the process.

• “You better cut it out,” he said, pulling himself back to you until he was hovering right in front of your face. “I get to do whatever I want, remember?” He smiled as he inched his lips closer, but stopped himself right before letting them touch yours. “I made my mind up. I’m gonna do you. Whatever I say goes, Jagi.”

Ooo when does Akari’s hair start growing in white? Does it happen after everything, while they’re on the run, or while they’re still in hisui? All of them have really interesting ways they could be taken…

Omg That is verrrrry true…

Ok, so if it starts to happen before the time travel in Hisui then her choosing to dye her hair would be less a spur of the moment choice and more a cautious necessity. In this case her hair wouldn’t grow in entirely white all at once but instead it starts small. At first she thinks it could be a result of stress but it keeps spreading. She wears her bandanna constantly to hide her roots because she’s afraid how the people of Hisui would view this strange phenomenon. Arezu thankfully just thinks she’s going grey early and is happy to dye and style it for her every few weeks.

But gossip does get around and whispers of ‘cursed’ and ‘claimed by the baneful fox’ spreads. Those peoples behavior towards her is largely that of pity than hostility though, as if they expect her to one day travel out to the Icelands and not return. A few warn their children to avoid her out of fear but never say anything to her face. They all do still hold a respect for her after saving all of Hisui.

She shows what’s happening to her hair to professor Laventon to see if he can make anything of it. At first he hypothisize to could be a side effect of exposure to the rift. He insist on calling in Ingo for questioning as by this point they’ve discovers the arc-transceiver and know he comes from the future too. But when asked if his hair has always been silver he can indeed confirm that it has. His memory may be damaged but knows that’s true. After all, the vague memory of the smiling man who looks like him also has silver hair.

After this the Professor starts to consider other possibilities. Her repeated exposure to frenzied nobles is one. Or maybe it could honestly be a genetic trait from her family. Rei is the one to suggest that the rumors arn’t that far off and it’s because of all her ghostly companions. No one else in Hisui has had so many before.

This suggestion sparks a memory in Ingo, a snippet of a conversation of a person explaining ghost pokemon’s effect on children. ‘Your nephews eyes are just fine, sir. This commonly can happen with ghost starters.’

Akari is honestly relived that this is just a thing that can happen while Professor Laventon is intrigued. He tries to question Ingo further on the mater but he can’t recall much beyond that small bit. He needs something to actively jog his memory to access it. Laventon quietly laments the loss of such fascinating knowledge his lost memory’s could hold, but sincerely thanks Ingo for what he could remember.

Much later, after they spend nearly a month on the run, the roots of her hair have grown to show only 50% of her hair is still dark slate. Elesa comments on how, if she were to let it grow out now, she would look like a Zebstika!

Scorched Earth

cw: fluff, a bit of character building for dragon au, reshiram Emmet, dragon au,

pairing: Emmet x Reader

The Reshiram hybrid was always warm.

It was simply in his nature to always irradiate some heat, even if he was as cold-blooded as any other dragon type.

Which is why you laid pressed into his chest. His arm was around you tightly alongside his wings. The heat he gave off was always at its best in Unova's frigid winters. Snow had since piled up outside again, giving the region a soft cloudy appearance. It was beautiful but annoying.

Though, giving it some thought, you pondered the colour pairing with Emmet's own white feathers. While his flames burned a bright yellows and oranges, the rest of him remained soft, gentle cloud in tone. You would imagine how easily he could disappear into the clouds should he take on his proper Reshiram form. Closing your eyes for a moment, you tried to recall legends about the dragon.

He was one who helped those pursue truth and known for his terrifying flames.

You even recalled a legend from Galar about how Reshiram would burn down kingdoms consumed by greed and ignorance to truth. When you gazed at the man beside you, it felt impossible to imagine. He always wore a smile and spoke so gently yet bluntly in comparison to his older brother. While he clearly disliked being lied to, always able to know if someone was, he never was overly aggressive about it.

Still, he was a legendary hybrid, and they were not exactly known for being the most kind beings in the world. They had their duties and roles to attend to. Even though he and Ingo had taken to living more human-like lives than their counterparts, they clearly took their jobs as Reshiram and Zekrom seriously. It only made sense with their previous shared existence as the pokemon Kyurem.

You remembered reading about a certain king from the region of Paldea and wondered about what his opinion on him truly was.

“… It's been how many centuries since you stopped being Kyurem?” you asked him curiously.

“… Mmm, a long time,” he responded with a yawn, clearly having been pulled from just falling to a slumber, “Are you curious about my troubled past now, heehee?” A giggle followed, of course, but his eyes were now alight with intrigue about your unexpected question.

“Like… Say, two thousand years ago?” you asked him. He blinked.

“Mmm… Exactly two thousand? I had separated from Kyurem, and Ingo and I were…” his eyes darted to stare at the wall, “We were busy.” You felt like he was holding back information, but it felt unrelated to what you were pursuing. It was something that you would come back to later.

“… Do you know about the king of Paldea?” you asked him. He actually tensed up at your words. It seemed he did then. You also recalled that Zekrom would scorch lands that let go of righteousness.

“… Distantly,” Emmet replied, “I was verrrrry busy in Unova, but I did make a visit to those lands.” There was that word busy again.

“Did you and Ingo scorch Paldea for turning to greed and corruption?” This time, he let out a sigh. Sitting up, you watched him pout at you.

“… Somewhat…” he answered this time. You knew it. With wide eyes, you felt stunned.

“Wow, you guys did actually do your legendary duties at one point!” you gasped. Emmet's face shifted to offence.

“We still do!!!” he whined, “It's just peaceful now! There is no reason for us to intervene.” You laughed at his reaction. They probably still had jobs to do, yes, but they spent most of their time directing the Unovan subway system. You think they took that job more seriously than they probably did running Unova if you recalled the history of the region correctly. His pout was getting to you, though, so you gave a soft peck to his cheek for answering all of your questions.

Another whine came from him as he fluttered his wings a few times. You were pulled into his lap, where he nuzzled his face into your nape with a hum. More heat came from him as you realised just how cold it was out from under the covers. It was always nice to talk to the twins about their existences as legendary pokemon, but they obviously preferred you to view them as the funny train men in the Gear Station.

It was obvious that Emmet enjoyed the reputation of being Reshiram, but he would rather someone talk to him about his massive Joltik collection rather than how he once governed over Unova with his brother. Pokemon battling tactics were a better choice than how it felt to once be a Kyurem thousands of years ago. Your curiosity remained strong about their past, even when they mentioned how you were the mate of Emin, their name Kyurem. A sigh came from him.

“I'm not some terrifying dragon god all the time,” he told you, “Today. I am Emmet, and I am your cuddly boyfriend.” You could not disagree with that. Pressing your back closer to him, you linked your fingers with his and smiled at him.

“You are both a giant terrifying dragon god and my cuddly boyfriend,” you joked, “And enjoy both very much.” A loving peck to his lips ended the conversation as you both took to watching the snow pile up from outside your window.

Emmet felt a pit in his stomach, still.

He knew you would one day ask about the past with him and Ingo.

It was still a thing they wished to keep from you because of the shame that lingered from it.

[translucent-at-best]

I was at my retwist appointment earlier when my loctitian starts talking about a male client of hers.

"Verrrrry cute. And since you and me have similar taste in men, I think he'd be your type. Doing well for himself. Owns his own home, and drives a Tesla, girl. A little too young for me, but I told him I have a lot of female clients around his age that I could see him hitting it off with..."

*wink wink*

I'm not gon' lie, I was intrigued. So I ask her, "Did he say anything about what his type was?"

"Well I asked him where was from to get an idea of who he dates, and he said he grew up in Rancho. So I mentioned how it's a lot of white and Asian girls up that way. He agreed, but said he likes and dates all types of women."

...

I don't know what kind of person it makes me, but hearing that was a turn off. I know I'm only interested in having a Black partner.

Someone I can say nigga with and around, someone I can trust to make a good and flavorful meal, someone who (hopefully) doesn't have any racist family members I have to worry about seeing over the holidays, someone I don't have to teach how to oil my scalp, someone who knows to clap on the two and four, someone whose back I can lotion after they shower (...because they lotion after they shower).

I want a Black partner who's only interested in having a Black partner too.

[iceyrukia]

just finished watching LOK ( yeah I'm verrrrry late) and gotta say that while watching it, in the back of my mind I was waiting for the Korra//sami pairing to develop. From being on here on this site I just knew that 1) this pairing was insanely popular 2) they became canon 3) it was celebrated for LGB representation (so I was just happy for the people on my dash + cool canon lesbian ship).

So all of these memories had me intrigued while watching the show so I was patiently waiting in anticipation .... only to be met with confusion. This pairing just happened out of nowhere ????? ( or rather they had very little build up) and seemed forced. It felt so lukewarm so I was confused as to if I overlooked something but then I remember that there was a time on here where people were upholding fictional lgb couples as the pinnacle of progression just by virtue of * insert pairing being gay here* and I understood how the hype over them didn't match what I was watching. It just reminds me of how starved people were of any representation that they would take anything, even a lackluster written lgb couple with shitty buildup over a hetero ship I guess. It also has to do with people's tendencies to virtue signal and liking the ideas of lgb ships just because of orientation rather than chemistry/compatibility. It's all so moralized. Like I'm amazed by how bland and badly written Korras//ami turned out to be especially in comparison to any other combination in the Makorasami triangle. Anyways that was my wtf moment of the week and a reminder that a lot of liberal fandom spaces just align themselves with whatever makes them look good/ progressive etc.

wip tag game

big thanks to @harpernovakaine for the tag 🥰

you know the drill: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it.

I seriously doubt we'll get to the asks, but have at my genius naming brain anyway:

rot

disco.fic

yassified

5 wrong 1 right

??? of leaves

not a bang, a whimper (this one is only made funny by the fact that I was writing it for a bang and then I dropped out. I know myself quite well)

think.exe has stopped working

this isn't praise kink

mississippi

s9 ftialt

most of these I can't even say anything coherent about because I start new docs verrrrry liberally thinking it's better to have a snippet or an idea however unfinished or forgotten, so it's not like I actually have that much writing going on haha. but yeah. this actually made me wanna revisit some of the above

tagging @alulaspeaks @damnable-bell @cowboyified @nigeltde-fic with the usual no pressure disclaimer!

[cinewhore]

I just saw your post about planning to watch some Disastrous Dinner Party movies. Would you be willing to post your reviews as you go along? I would be very curious to know what’s on the list and what your thoughts are each movie.

Yes! So this is the list I’m referring to: https://m.imdb.com/list/ls063344562/

I’ll tag all my watches #tishgoestodinner so you can find it easily!

So far on the list I’ve seen:

The invitation - I’d give it a three and a half out of five. It’s verrrrry slow up until the end but worth the watch. It’s a bit jumpy and deals with touchy subjects like death and children so be careful going in.

Clue - five out five. Hands down a perfect movie for me.

Coherence - another five out of five. It’s a small budget film that takes place in one location and the plot line is highly intriguing. Definitely recommend if you’re into the multiverse craze that’s happening

Get Out - favorite horror film although it’s not strictly based on a dinner party. Great watch

[the-heart-will-be-revived]

Entry One: Possibility!

There is a potential for great discovery here so I've seen.

I have been monitoring the activity here very closely! My fellow monsters here are verrrrry intriguing uhuhu.

I heard there were humans on the loose, oh how I would love to get my claws on one of them... Think about the breakthroughssss!

AHAH this is all very interesssssting, very very much so.

There is also another I've had my eye on, they pique my interest so. I would give anything to have them here, and to do tests.

No matter! I will keep considering this, taking notes, and otherwise.

Stay tuned for more updates ehhahhehuuhuhu.

Stay curious fellow scientists out there <3

@debelltio 𝔯𝔢𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔰𝔱𝔢𝔡: “plots please”

[ 𝔬𝔫𝔢 ] okay here's a classic: staaaaar waaaaaaaaaars! prequels to be exact. i think this could be fairly easy. i'll admit that i sttill haven't figured out what planet she's from originally BUT, she works part time for her senator on coruscant. well, part time at first. anyway, what if their planet/system has something the death star project needs but their senator is being a bit obstinate about an aspect of the agreement? as the senator's aide, they'd potentially cross paths quite a few times over this. she could be a help or a hinderance, depending on how we want it to go, and potentially go through into the originals timeline! i also think because their backgrounds are similar (at least going back to their grandparents) though differing since her mother would hold a lot of respect, it would be interesting to see what he thinks of her! (unflattering i'm sure)

[ 𝔱𝔴𝔬 ] regency verse? i know i've left you hanging with this on elizabeth (i'm sorry but you know i'll eventually get back there!!) butttttttt, it could be interesting here? they'd be on a verrrrry similar footing there, though i imagine he'd be far more wealthy than her family, but with her father being a well known professor and her mother being the daughter of a famous general... similar notoriety? we could have some sort of intrigue different from the one we have planned already. maybe he hopes to use her (or her siblings') connections as a stepping stone to a bigger goal? maybe they end up in an unfortunate situation together and have to solve it? endless possibilities.

[ 𝔱𝔥𝔯𝔢𝔢 ] because you >.> at the idea, got/asoiaf verse. i'd imagine that her family has some ties to the military, perhaps like above her mother was the daughter of a general/leader of troops, her father a scholar. that being said, i'm leaning toward her being from outside of westeros, across the western sea, as her mother being a leader (most unfortunately) in her own right makes more sense there. perhaps orson is there for business (or pleasure) or perhaps he's there against his will. all fodder really!

[ 𝔣𝔬𝔲𝔯 ] so you've seen my post and now we're talking about orson and satine in it, but she'd be the sister of a victor, the daughter of a former peacekeeper, from two, etc. their paths would definitely cross at some point, and it would be slightly chaotic too, however it happens. it could be terribly cringy or terribly interesting i have no idea.

[ahintofoctober]

I got rather behind with starting my 52 books for the year, due to some crazy life nonsense, but finally got started with Coldbrook (Tim Lebbon) a few days ago.

It's enjoyable thus far - a bit lacking in character development, but that may be a deliberate choice and will be rectified later. At the moment, I don't like two out of three of what seem to be the main characters, but I don't have to like characters to find a book enjoyable. If anything, I can always hope they get comeuppance. Win-win. 🤷‍♀️

The premise is interesting: it's a group of scientists who managed to open a portal to another world, and whaddayaknow, zombies came out. I like it! That's B-movie scary fun. It feels a bit like Stranger Things meets The Passage, and I love both, so all good there!

The only real criticism I have thus far is the use of epithets. In case anyone here doesn't know me from my own writing, I go a bit killer zombie myself about epithets. If a character knows someone's name, they think of them by the name! I don't think of my cat as "the fluffy one," I think of her as Nina! (Though she probably thinks of me as "the one with magical can-opening powers.")

Aside from that minor complaint, it's a lot of fun thus far, and will get even more fun when both zombies and reader break out of the science facility and watch the world start to burn (or shuffle around and moan and bite people). I do hope we get deeper character development, but it's also early enough in the story that different characters (with more development) may take center stage. Of the three that seem like leads thus far - Jonah, Holly, and Vic - Jonah and Vic have gotten a bit of backstory, while Holly has not, so I kind of suspect she'll get gnawed on soon. We'll see! (I'm also intrigued that we've gotten almost nothing yet about Bill Coldbrook. I'm verrrrry intrigued by that!)

[yourdeepestfathoms]

Hey can we get a Fic about the ‘Golf Club Incident’ mentioned in that kidney stones fic? I’m verrrrry intrigued. :)

of course! sorry it’s coming so late in the day, i took my math TSI today. but here it is!

this was supposed to be short and sweet, but then it became slightly longer and Dark.

enjoy!

[valleydean]

lmao idk why but this morning i was thinking about the horror-filled days of my first exposure to the spn fandom and it's a wild ride and tbh i'm shocked i stuck it out and that i'm still here because of it

so, i joined the fandom in 2008 the moment cas walked on screen. that was the first scene i ever saw and i was like "ok fuck i'm in." so he was always my fave and i loved it when he was on my screen, and i didn't know why at the time because i was young and naive but every time he and dean were in a scene together, my heart started beating very fast and i was like "hmm. they are interesting to me."

but again, this was 2008 and the destiel/cas nation was far and away the minority in the fandom. most people were w*ncest shippers and sam/dean girls, because that was the only option.

again, i was new and like - i'd been on myspace fandoms and verrrrry marginally lj fandoms, but spn was really my very first introduction to fandom spaces and terminology. so i had no idea what "shipping" meant or what fic actually was. ao3 wasn't even a thing yet!! (lmao i think you can see where this is going, regretfully)

so there were all these sam/dean girls and i was like "oh i love sam and dean!! they have a great relationship! ha-ha you call it w*ncest because they're so co-dependent you guys are sooooo funny!! also let me check out these free stories you guys are writing about supernatural, my new favorite tv show! it's gonna be awesome!!" so i read like, 2 i think, on lj. i don't remember what they were called or what they're about lmao but, credit where credit's due, they were genuinely good plot-wise. they were entertaining. but i was like "hmm. what's, uh. what's with all the hanky panky? they're brothers." so i was like - ok maybe it's just these fanfic authors that are into this so i'mma steer clear of this!

but then, when i started using twitter and tumblr more and i started following more people..... it slowly dawned on me......... that these people were like. serious. and i was like. oh no

so i made my way over to the speedily growing destiel side of the fandom. and i saw the way people shipped them. and at first, because of my Experience, i was also like. oh no. but also i'm warily intrigued, as you can imagine

and this was right around the time the man who would be king aired. and as soon as i laid eyes on that episode i immediately did a complete 180 and i was like - YES! where is the porn about THEM?! do people write fic about THEM!?

and, 100,000+ fics later, the answer is a resounding yes.

so basically, just this once, big props to the w*ncest shippers for making it weird and allowing me to discover destiel, which owns my ass and that i have a tattoo for now. and, to my fellow fans from that dark time who very correctly don't ship them but still love sam and dean, if you're still here, i am kissing you on the mouth

anyway, that's my story. this is my truth.

Hi!! I love your Submas stuff!! I was wondering if you could write something with them (separately) having an S/O that's a very popular actor in Pokéstar Studios but is shy irl. Maybe their pokémon could also be a Zoroark that helps with SFX? Love your writing, have a great day!!

anon my child self spent many many hours trying to beat the studio's bs...

▲Ingo▼

● He honestly likely hasn't seen your movies unless they've been released to home media means. Ingo is busy and usually gets his entertainment from his couch. The convenience is appreciated greatly; he can properly unwind in the privacy of his home. There's no reason for him to go see a movie in a theatre unless it's something he desperately wanted to watch or someone dragged him out.

● If you're inundated with fans and things akin to that, Ingo's ignorance to all of that is a nice change of pace. However, should you drag him out to see your movie, he's going to pay close attention and deeply enjoy your work. It's something that important to you, so it's important to him by the same virtue.

● Impressed by your Zoroark's ability being transferred into SFX work. He's definitely thought about having (or has) using pokemon around the station in some way. Watchogs seem particularly good for directing traffic… He's scratching the fox's head in deep contemplation. The illusionist chirps from the sudden affection and presses their head into his hand.

● Certainly, he understands the facade you put on for your job and fans. He does something similar at his place of work. New employees around the station often think he's some sort of dictator with how he yells orders and demands a level of authority in sheer presence alone. (They are quick to learn he just acts like that, and speaking with him will often resolve any and all issues.) Your shyness is handled responsibly by the Subway Boss; he'll work for your comfort.

● If any fans attempt to harass or stalk you, he's immediately at your defence and ordering them to either stop or he's calling the police. Especially if they try to take advantage of your shyness. Ingo has dealt with a few crazy fans of his own, so he's absolutely not going to let any bother you. (Might even send out Haxorus to help intimidate the fan further.)

● Sadly, you cannot get him to star in a movie unless he's playing a conductor of some sort. He's a strong, powerful trainer with handsome features to boot. Ingo would do wonderfully, but he has no interest or passion like you do in acting. (You can either convince a director to make a movie with trains somehow involved or beg Ingo, as his resolve can fail when it comes to you.)

▽Emmet△

○ He's probably seen your movies. Emmet likely recognizes you from something he's seen you in at the station and starts a conversation up with you. Your battles always seem so dramatic on the screen; he needs that in his life. (Unlike Ingo, Emmet attempts to get out more and visits theatres often with Elesa. Occasionally, the two band together and drag out the more reclusive twin.)

○ You probably are unsure if he's a fan or casual viewer at first, and the answer is both. When he's dating you, there's a bit more fan behaviour, but that's all born out of his passion for you as his partner. People in theatres for your premieres notice the Subway Boss and likely cock a brow at his unexpected presence. It only gets worse when he claps louder than anyone else in the room at the end of the movie. You're likely flustered from his loud support.

○ Visibly intrigued by Zoroark's ability being used as SFX. That's verrrrry smart, and something he never considered before you told him. He wants to have a station mascot, but Ingo keeps turning down his requests. Joltiks are cute, so he has no idea why his brother is so adamantly against it. Emmet pets the fox and wonders if perhaps something more popular with children would be a better idea. (A stray Purrloin who lingers around the station is agreed upon by the twins. She has her own hat and title.)

○ He understands that your public face is different from your true self. Ingo is much the same way, often appearing more harsh and cold at work, but Emmet knows his twin his a big softie who's biggest dream is to settle down. The younger twin doesn't exactly shift that much between a work persona and his private life. He thinks your shyness is cute and loves helping you with it. (Please cling to him, it's something that makes his smile brighten.)

○ Should any fans be dumb enough to harass or stalk you, they're dealing with an absolutely pissed Emmet. If they take advantage of your shyness, he's even madder. He's instantly removing you from the fan with a venomous glare in his eyes and unspoken threats should they cause you anymore harm. If the situation gets worse, he's fighting them with his hands or pokemon.

○ Emmet begs you to let him star in a movie with you. He wants to see those dramatic battles in action and not filtered through a screen. Disappointment is heavy in the air when the green screen room is introduced. This can't be right, he thinks. Then you're brawling a green hunt of metal and the Subway Boss is sitting dumbfounded.  (Calls Ingo and tells him Pokestar is a lie. The older twin has no context and his horribly confused by the phrase 'green makes our movies'.)

nosleep mods deleted this for apparently not being a horror story. enjoy

My friend Ed is a bit of an outdoorsman. Not one of those hardcore 'two week hike hunting for food and sleeping in the dirt' types, but he does his share of hunting and camping. He and I got into it together when we met in community college and went on a weed-fueled camping trip over spring break, and since then he has far outgrown my own outdoor endeavors.

He's gotten some great stories to tell over the years. Finding a pair of souvenir Vegas dice in the stomach of a rabbit he was cleaning, getting hit by two skunks in a single day, close encounters with pumas and bears, and the far more harrowing and painful encounters with other hikers. But he's never come back with anything all that disturbing. Until his last trip.

Ed had been making an admirable effort of converting his 'spend the fall watching netflix and consuming pumpkin themed beverages' oriented boyfriend, Saúl, to some small game hunting. About a year ago, the two of them had taken a trip down south to do just that.

A few days into their week-long trip, I got a flurry of panicked texts from Saúl. It was all things like, "omg we just saw something so messed up" and "never going to the desert again LMAO there was a naked guy" or something to that effect.

I barely remember. I was bedridden with the worst case of the flu I'd ever experienced, and received these texts through a haze of fever and Nyquil. At that time, my response to those texts was more or less "Wow, hate when that happens :("

Neither of them provided elaboration upon their return, and I was a little too consumed in my own misery to ask for it. It was left at that.

Last week, Ed and I were practicing our usual 7 o'clock ritual of smoking behind the gas station during his break and complaining about the mere existence of customers. His mask was pulled down to his chin and he was fumbling with an entire cigar he'd brought to work, complaining about some customer who was shirtless in the middle of November and clearly blitzed out of his mind.

It was as he was describing the man's public indecency that I remembered the frantic texts I had received last fall.

"Hey, speaking of nudity...What was the story with the naked dude in the desert?" I asked him.

He cringed.

"From last year, on your trip?" I pressed.

"Yeah, I know, I know. God. Did Saúl text you?"

"Yeah, but he didn't give me the details of it."

Ed finished lighting the cigar, and took a long drag.

"Yeah, okay." He said. "I was honestly trying to forget about it but like. I don't know why Saúl was so stuck on the nudity like, that was the least messed up part of it all. It was the craziest thing."

It was the craziest thing is the set of words he would begin every particularly intriguing story with, and I realized I should probably settle in. I made myself comfortable against the dumpster in anticipation.

His story was as follows.

"So, yeah. We were out in the scrub. Technically weren't supposed to be there, we were a little ways off my aunt's land but like, there's no one to bug you about that out there. It was this kinda rocky area, lots of little hills and tall brush. So you couldn't see very far from the ground. And it was pretty well into the afternoon, and we hadn't caught a damn thing, so we were just kinda screwing around at that point. And we were near this bigass arroyo, and-"

He paused.

"Wait, you know what an arroyo is?" He asked me, taking another drag from his cigar.

I shook my head. He nodded solemnly at my midwestern ignorance.

“Okay, yeah. So it's a dry sorta riverbed in the desert. You ever seen a dried up creek? It's like that. They form when the rains come and are completely dry the rest of the year. And a lot of them are pretty small, but this one was like, a miniature canyon. Probably thirty feet across and ten feet deep. And it kind of winds around the hills before getting shallower when the elevation changes or whatever.

“So anyway we’re… yeah we’re there. The arroyo is on the other side of some rocks, and the open desert is in front of us. And we were sat down in the shade, having some beef jerky and stuff."

He paused again. He seemed to be lost in thought, eyes squinting and looking somewhere distant.

"So yeah, we're having a grand old time, just having a snack or whatever. And suddenly we hear screaming. Some guy’s screaming, ‘help! help me!’ out in the bush somewhere nearby.”

“And you know how Saúl is. Too much of a sweetheart for his own good. He's like nudging me and going "Eddie, we should go help." And yeah, sure, I wanted to help but there was something… Weird? About it? Like the shouting sounded real close but I wasn’t hearing anything else that, you know, accompanies a call for help. Like, no running, no sounds of struggling or being mauled by a wild animal or whatever. It was DEAD silent whenever the guy wasn't shouting.

"And like, call me an asshole but I'm not gonna do some ‘white person in a horror movie 'lets split up, gang!'’ shit. I was staying right where I was.”

"So we just kind of sat there, listening to it. The guy had started just- shrieking. No words, just making noise. And at this point I was starting to feel like a complete bastard for being the pragmatic one, but Saúl didn't seem to wanna move either. Like, it was super off.

"And then, there’s another sound. Kind of a…uh… Gurgling noise? Like-”

Ed broke off to make an odd sound in his throat. It was a low, prolonged croak that slowly lifted into a 'whoop!’

Some old woman in the process of fueling her SUV glared at him. He scowled back.

“Okay, it was actually nothing like that. But you get the idea.”

“And that happens a couple times, and it... It didn't sound like a person's voice anymore. And I'm thinking maybe the world's most fucked up coyote just killed a guy and was celebrating or whatever, but it didn't really sound like an animal either. It was kinda inorganic, you know what I mean?

"But yeah, it kind of whoops a couple more times, and then the last time it just... Didn't stop. It kept going, and it turns into this- music? It sounded, uh, sort of like a bunch of different flutes being played at once. But lower. Very deep. I don’t remember the tune so don’t ask. But it was music, and me and Saúl are just looking at each other like "what the fuck?”.

"And at that point, curiosity is kicking in and I'm gripped by this wave of idiocy, so I get up and start walking towards the sound. Low to the ground, super slow. Stealth. And I can tell it’s coming from the arroyo. So I just verrrrry carefully climb up the side and look inside.“

Ed paused to grasp for words.

"And there’s a man in there. Some pasty dude. Sunburnt, t-shirt tan lines, all that. Pretty scrawny, but otherwise normal looking from the chest down. No injuries or nothing, which I can say for sure because, yeah, the dude is completely naked. I mean naked. There was a pile of his clothes nearby, and his whole dick was out and he was barefoot. And he was DANCING. He’s just dancing naked in this friggin’ ditch.

"And it took me a bit to process what was going on with his head. Like, the music sounds are coming from up there. And I’m thinking he’s got some sort of weird instrument over his head, but he dances towards me and um. He has no head. Or like- Shit. He kind of has a head? Like I could sort of make it out, but it’s tilted all the way backwards. Like, touching his back. So his neck's facing the sky, and his eyes are just kind of staring out behind him.

"And there’s all these… tubes. Coming out of where the nose and mouth probably used to be. Big fleshy tubes, skin toned. But they didn't flop around, they were like, pretty firm. And they’ve got little holes all over them. And that’s where the music is coming from. He’s playing them.”

Ed lifted his arms over his head and mimed with his fingers. “Like a flute”

“So like, it’s the most fucked up thing I’ve ever seen, basically, but I can’t stop watching. And Saúl eventually comes up beside me, and we don’t say anything, we just watch this guy. It’s gotta be like… A solid hour we’re just sitting there, with this guy playing his music and dancing around. And he starts moving up the arroyo, still dancing the whole time, and eventually he’s out of sight. But we hear the music a good while longer until it gets too distant. I don't think he ever saw us. Or he didn't care. I don't know."

He was silent for a long while. I waited for him to continue, but it was evident that it was over.

"And... That was it?" I asked.

"Yeah, that was it. We got the hell out of there and didn't see him again. Or hear anything about a crazy nudist in the area."

He took another puff of his cigar, and coughed.

"I mean, it could have been... A really, really good costume or something. Like, REALLY good. I mean I definitely saw his eyes blinking. On the head that was... You know. Bent entirely backwards. But hey, could be a costume!" He added with a flourish, clearly not entertaining this possibility whatsoever.

"Holy shit." I said.

He laughed, and snuffed out his cigar in the snow. "Damn right."

[wowtobio]

uhm hi can i ask how the boys would react if their s/o has a tattoo w/ tendou,sakusa,himata and kageyama it seems like alot but u can just pick one or two of them thank you i love your writings!

Tendou, Sakusa and Kageyama with an s/o with a tattoo

ooh this was so much fun to write, i didn’t write for Hinata though if you don’t mind, I just could not think of anything to write for him i’m sorry!! :( i hope you enjoy either way ❤︎ thank you!

**in japan, typically tattoos are associated with the yakuza, this will still apply SLIGHTLY mostly for kags and sakusa. it will be considered but it won’t be as bad as it actually is deemed in japan, for the sake of fluffy content 

warnings: none just fluff :)

Tendou

i would die for tendo in a hoodie 

Okok he would definitely be amazed by your tattoo ! 

If your tattoo is pretty noticeable, that is the first thing his eyes go too when meeting you and on further encounters with the red-head. He won’t ask about it the very first time though just to be cautious. 

After a few moments with him though and you both establish an acquainted friendship that’s when he would ask about the meaning behind your tattoo and why you got it. 

Has mesmerized eyes the whole time you explain your tattoo to him as he intently listens. And then proceeds to ask question after question~ 

“When did you get it? Did your parents know? You’re not a delinquent right??? AH SORRY! Was that too much?” 

Please don’t bash on him though, he is just genuinely interested :) 

Probably asks permission to touch your tattoo a few times awwh. Tendou would politely say please and when you say yes he just lightly pokes it and is just for?? whatever? reason??? amazed? lol cutie

If you got your tattoo for a deep reason, he would sympathize with you and would even admire you for marking your body for your reasons. If you got it because you were just tipsy one night he would endlessly make fun of you and occasionally bring it up just to tease you.

And if your tattoo is hidden, when you show it he just feels so honored and does all of the above just in private and more hushed. 

He just thinks it’s really amazing and it’s one of the many things he loves about you. While you cuddle he would just like to have a hand over your tattoo, warming the area leaving a pleasant sensation for the both of you.

“Ne (y/n)-chan ~ thank you for showing me this part of you” 

Sakusa

He would probably think your tattoo would be dirt at first glance, therefore would feel disgusted and just avoid interaction with you. Until he realizes it is a tattoo in which he will feel confused since you didn’t look like the type to have one. 

Sakusa would never admit it, but he was and is intrigued by your tattoo. He was pretty sure you were not part of a gang or something.

I can’t imagine him ever asking or mentioning it, it would most likely just be you causally talking about your tattoo or mentioning something about in which he would scoff at just the idea of tattoos. 

His reasoning being you never know how dirty those needles are and if they ever replace/clean them. 

He gives you slightly weird looks when you explain the meaning behind your tattoo, but overall would have a serious face the whole time and would simply nod his head knowing how much your tattoo means to you.

If you ended up getting it by accident, he would scoff and scold you for being such an idiot haha, but nothing too vulgar. Just a quick flick to the forehead and a comment. 

If your tattoo is hidden, you once took off a piece of cloth and his eyes widen at the sight of it. Unlike the above, he would probably ask what was that on your skin. 

It’s something Sakusa would not prefer, but it is a part of you that has meaning so he would never insult you about it. He would probably act like it doesn’t exist. 

But at the end of the day, you never catch his eyes of admiration towards the ink in your skin. 

Kageyama

He would lowkey be verrrrry intimidated by it at first glance. He would like question your whole existence. Thoughts would be like “but she’s too pretty to be a yakuza????” 

He can’t help but stare at it, maybe a bit too intensely and you can’t help but shiver at his intensity. But, you get over it and giggle, pulling up whatever article of clothing to show the setter your full tattoo. 

Caught off guard and just would freeze in place, continues to just stare. His eyes would continue to widen as he intently listens to the meaning and would probably just mumble “wows” or “woahs” 

Unlike Tendou, he would not ask a lot of questions maybe one or two but overall nothing bombarding you. His mind kinda goes blank because he feels weird emotions about you having a tattoo.

If you got your tattoo due to your drunken state, he would probably be angry haha. 

“BOKE!!” 

Then he apologizes by kissing you on the forehead afterwards hmph

If your tattoo is hidden, I can see you showing him in an intimate moment and he just ogles it. He has both amazement yet confusion written on his face and you giggle explaining the tattoo to him. 

After a bit, he’s grown to really like your tattoo and the design of it. 

When Kageyama’s upset, he likes to trace the lines of your tattoo while cuddling. Even when you’re cuddling normally. It’s one of his favorite things to do since it’s almost therapeutic for him. 

Overtime he secretly comes to love your tattoo, but he would never admit it to you. If you ask him he would just avoid the question with blushing cheeks hehe

-

a/n: omg i was proof reading this but holy crap in the future if i had a tattoo and my boyfriend don’t trace it over like kageyama i don’t want him
