sharing the news || matt sturniolo part 2
Tumblr media
matt x fem!reader
summary: after a while you decided its time to share the news of your new chapter in life with Chris and Nick
warnings: pregnancy
word count: 1,5k
a/n: thank you for over 100 notes under part 1! I decided to continued the story. I hope you will like it!
It's been a month since me and Matt found out that I'm pregnant. It’s been hell of a ride so far. We somehow managed to talked Chris and Nick out of my little episode and told them I just got my period and was really upset, tired and need Matt to go to the store for me. I spent entire next two days in Matt’s room trying to figure out our situation. I was also constantly sick and anxious. After than I just tried to be as normal as I could so no one would be suspicious.
At first it was like I didn’t know what I should do. But then I found myself thinking about the baby with my hand on my stomach and I knew I wanted to keep it. I also did hear Matt talking to my belly in the middle of night which made me cry so hard in the bathroom because of how cute that was.
Today was my first ultrasound appointment to confirm the situation and check if everything is alright.
“You know… I was thinking that if everything is good I would like to tell Chris and Nick and then we can decide how and when we want to tell the rest of the family” Matt looked at me when we stopped on the red light.
Keeping this a secret form his brothers was really hard for him because they always talked about everything with each other. Which was scary for me at first. Their whole relationship and building my own with Matt but also becoming part of theirs. Now I just admire the bond between them.
“Yes I was thinking the same” I smiled at him and put my hand on his thigh. I was nervous about only one thing.
“What I was thinking… Is that I will literally jump if your fucking triplets genes worked too hard and there is more than one of those” I said what was on my mind recently.
“Oh my goodness… I didn’t think about this” He put his hand over his mouth.
He was clearly scared now.
“We giving one to Chris in that case” I said seriously.
“Please , we are never leaving our kids with Chris, ever” he said.
I only laughed at that and patted his leg.
“It’s gonna be all good Matt, let’s manifest it’s only one for now” I said.
“Baby… I know this month wasn’t ideal for you and we both tried to cope with the fact that we’re going to have a baby but also only us knowing for now is really special” He looked at me for a second and his eyes went back to the road.
That was also exactly how I felt and I leaned forward to him and kissed his cheek.
“I love you Matty… I know this is all hard but you’re right” I said.
“I love you too sweet girl… okay we’re here, let’s do this” He parked the car and took a deep breath.
Our appointment went smoothly. They did my blood test which confirmed that I’m pregnant. They also did bunch of other tests to see if I’m all good and healthy. Thankfully I was. The last step was the ultrasound.
“Alright parents…” The doctor said and I gasped at the cold of the liquid that she put all over my lower belly.
She called us “parents”, that took me by surprise and I felt so weird.
“Ready?” She looked at me and smiled and I only nodded and closed my hand on one of Matt’s hands.
She started the thing and looked at the monitor. We couldn’t see it just yet.
“Okay… I found it… everything looks great. The baby is healthy. Looks like you’re about 6/7 weeks pregnant” She said.
“Only one?” Matt asked and wiggled on the chair.
“Oh my Lord, Matt… He is a triplet and we were kind of scared that you know… there’s gonna be more than one” I laughed and looked back at the doctor.
“Yes there’s only one” She laughed as well and turned the screen so we could see it too.
I felt like my heart skipped a beat when I saw a little thing moving on the screen. Like a dot. But I knew it’s our baby.
“Oh my…” I said and she pushed some kid of button and sound of a really fast heartbeat started to play from the machine.
“Is that?..” Matt gasped as well.
“That’s your baby’s heart beating… it’s really fast that’s normal and that’s actually really good. The baby is really healthy, you guys… congratulations” She said with a big smile.
But both of us were speech less. I caught Matt swiping tears from his cheek with a corner of my eye. That moment was something you can’t explain. You need to experience that yourself to know how much love I felt in this moment.
When we were back in the car I put all of my stuff in the back seat, closed the doors and turned around to go to my doors but I was met by arms of my boyfriend.
“Oh Matt…” I said hugging him back.
He hid his head in the crock of my neck and I run my fingers through his hair. I felt tears on my skin and I couldn’t help as my eyes started to water as well.
“We’re going to be okay. We can do this Matt. Together” I said but my voice broke I couldn’t exactly feel what’s happening.
“I know… y/n I’m just so happy that’s it’s overwhelming” He said pulling back to rest his temple against mine.
“I feel exactly the same way” I whispered looking him in the eyes.
He kissed me and pulled me even closer to his body. I couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone else.
On our way back we stopped by target and some other places to get Nick’s and Chris’s favorite snacks, drinks and some funny, cheesy stuff that had “cool uncle” on it.
At home I put all of it in two boxes and also added a picture from the ultrasound to each.
This situation was so unreal for me and Matt. They were actually filming in the kitchen now. I really wanted to have their reaction on camera, so we told them that Matt wanted to do some kind of unboxing with their eyes blindfolded and they would have to guess what’s in the boxes.
When he texted me they are ready I took the boxes and come to the kitchen and put them in front of them and stood behind the camera.
“Okay you may open them” Matt said.
They started to pull stuff out.
“That’s bullshit it’s clearly Pepsi and popcorn” Chris said.
“Yes and that’s my own lip balm” Nick said annoyed.
“Okay how about this?” Matt took an ultrasound pictures and put into their hands.
“Piece of paper?” Chris said.
“No” Matt said and looked at me.
“Picture?” Nick said and showed it to the camera.
“Yes, it’s a picture” He nodded and smiled to the camera.
“Picture of us?” Chris asked and opened his can of Pepsi.
“No… but picture of someone that is in a room with us” Matt said.
“Oh my gosh you fucking freaking me out right now, what the fuck, are you a medium or what” Nick said an put the picture on the table.
“Okay… maybe just take your blindfolds off and Chris… you might want to wait with that fist sip” I said looking at them.
“I didn’t know you were here…” Nick said and started to undo the bandanna on his head.
I bit on my nails as I watched them taking those off. Then they looked at the boxes and I felt like I stopped breathing for a second.
“What the actual fuck? Is this some kind of prank?” Chris asked as his eyes widened.
“Oh my gosh are you kidding me?” Nick looked at me and stood up.
“Chris you owe me 1000 dollars… I knew it!” He hugged me tightly and I put my arms around him.
“Did you two bet on me being pregnant? What the hell?” I laughed.
My stress went away because how could I be stressed around them.
“I actually forgot that we did” Chris said and gave Matt a big hug.
“You guys… I don’t know what to say” Nick said pulling away from me.
“Well…. To be honest we don’t know either” I said and Matt only laughed.
“Yes… this feels really like a dream more than real life” Matt said looking at his brothers.
“Wait… are we first to know?” Chris asked.
“Of course you are… who else?” Matt looked at him and Nick went closer to them and they three shared a hug and than looked at me.
“Come here mama” Chris wiggled his eyebrows at me.
“Never, ever call me that again” I said seriously while coming into the hug.
They laugh and we stand like that for a minute or two.
“Okay I love you all but all three of you smell like three different colognes and I might throw up” I said stepping back.
This baby will be the luckiest baby in the whole world having them as a family.

I’ve been thinking about Miriel and her impact on the House of Feanor on the whole, as you do, and I was thinking what if she haunted the narrative even more? I think it’s pretty well established that she was depressed in some shape or form, that there were mental health problems contributing heavily but there were definitely physical aspects as well, ‘But in the bearing of her son Miriel was consumed in spirit and body; and after his birth she yearned for release from the labour of living.’ And I know that Feanor being Feanor was ascribed as a huge cause of this, that he was just so much stronger than the average elf that his birth was particularly taxing but I’m going to go ahead and assume that even if Feanor had been a perfectly normal baby Miriel would have been impacted. It just feels almost like this infant is being blamed for his mother’s death which, while definitely plausible as something that happened in universe, doesn’t really feel fair to him.
I’m theorising Miriel had underlying conditions from long before she became pregnant that made her prone to things like fainting, exhaustion, chronic pain and that in all honesty her having a child was never going to be a good idea. But they wanted a family together and where could be a safer place to raise one? Everything was perfect and safe, why shouldn’t they be able to overcome this little obstacle to doing what everyone else seemed to be doing without issue? Towards the end she was entirely bedridden, not even strong enough to sit at her loom.
Finwë was relieved beyond measure when Feanor seemed to grow almost exceedingly strong and healthy, as if he’d gotten all the strength Miriel had been missing, and he thought that was the matter laid to rest, Feanor was fine and any children of his would be as well. Except they weren’t. Nerdanel’s pregnancies were always a time of great panic, not for her health really because it wasn’t Feanor’s genes they were worried about it was Miriel’s. And Nerdanel was nothing like Miriel but her children…..
Ñolofinwe watches Feanor pacing the palace in a frenzy while a crowd of healers stream in and out of a room down the hall, some five times the standard amount, and he wants to try and reassure him but knows he, with his perfectly healthy baby boy, delivered with no fuss by one midwife just like his two perfectly healthy sons beforehand, to go home to, is the last person in Arda his brother could stand to converse with right now.
The sons and daughters of Fingolfin and Finarfin grew swiftly, strong and athletic with hearty appetites and bright dispositions. Feanor could not bring himself to hate children so he settled for hating his brothers instead. He does not envy them their children, he loves his more than he could ever have loved anything and that’s the problem right there, he loves his sons and he’s absolutely terrified that he’s going to lose them if he lays them down too long. They’re so small and as soon as they leave his or Nerdanel’s arms they seem to tremble with cold so he sleeps with them against his chest for more of the first years of their lives than was usual. After those many sleepless nights he always finds it hard to sleep without being able to feel the rise and fall of their breathing.
Their cousins often do not understand what the difference between them and the Feanorians is, most of them have vague memories of getting scolded within an inch of their lives for fighting one back when they got into childish arguments. Mostly they just resented it or assumed it was favouritism if it were by Finwe or fear of Feanor’s wrath if by their own parents. Angrod did not think too long on how easily Caranthir crumpled to the ground at an unexpected shove, after all he was the older wasn’t he? Surely the rules about being gentle shouldn’t apply? He was equally puzzled when Fingolfin came running and scooped Caranthir into his arms, pale and panicked as Maedhros assured him he’d make certain Feanor wouldn’t hear about the matter if he was alright.
They train and become agile and skilled with blades and bows if not physically broad and strong in the way of their cousins but no matter how their health improves there are always concerns and during their approaching adulthood it becomes clear their worries are not only in body. There are migraines that leave them in dark rooms unable to bear even the sound of footsteps outside, days where Curufin and Maedhros struggle to allow any food past there lips, days where Caranthir sobs for hours with some inexplicable ache, weeks where Maglor cannot find rest no matter how much exhaustion he feels, little cuts and gashes on Celegorm’s arms that seem too frequent to be fully accidental.
If you were to look at this from a modern perspective it would probably be some genetic tendency to bipolar disorder and major depression but they wouldn’t have that kind of language because in my headcanons about Valinor they have very little experience with mental illness and no idea how to respond to it. I’m citing the whole Miriel incident to back me up there.
And just to make this even more angsty have a Tyelko quote from the fic of this I may or may not write ‘Amme always said we were her miracles, that our survival and strength was a blessing from the Valar. I was lucky to make it to my first winter. I wonder now if things wouldn’t have been better for everyone else if I hadn’t.’

Cara Mia...
Pairing: Larissa Weems x Reader
Word Count: 1.7k
Genre: Fluff
Summary: Wednesday's older sister attends Nevermore and falls for a certain principle. The infamous Addams' Love at first Sight.
A/N: This is a mix of two requests that I got. I don't think I did either of them justice but this is what I could come up with. Not as much Larissa in this but I tried so please be nice ;-;
Tumblr media
Since the beginning of life you have been told of the infamous spiel of ‘love at first sight’ that occurs within the life of an Addams.
You’ve seen it with your parents, you’ve seen it happen to your Uncle Fester, hell you’ve seen it happen to Thing. Within your 18 years of life, not once have you experienced this phenomenon. And you don’t plan on experiencing it.
It was a gloriously gloomy Tuesday when your parents had determined that you also had to attend this…Nevermore Academy. They told you that as the eldest Addams child, you should set an example to your younger siblings, especially Wednesday during this ‘troubling’ time of hers. You didn’t have a choice really yet you didn’t really fight the decision.
You didn’t share your sister’s visions. You got a werewolf gene. However, you were able to tame it and thus your family let you go to a normal school. You didn’t care for it. You were sick of normies and sick of their existence. You were also able to help Wednesday get revenge on those jocks who bullied Pugsley. This decision of yours was probably the reason why you didn’t fight your parents on going to Nevermore Academy. If it wasn’t for Wednesday’s piranhas, you would’ve turned and let those jocks have it.
The whole family came to show their support for you and Wednesday going to Nevermore. You sat in the back next to Wednesday, trying not to gag as your parents were gushing over each other. Your mother hummed at your reaction before peeling herself away from your father, “You will understand when you find your person.” 
You opted to look out the window as your mother and father talked to your sister. “Your mother attended Nevermore, and she learned to control her visions, didn’t you mon cher?”
“Oh yes, that’s where your father and I met. With the help of my roommate, your father and I shared that special moment. It truly was love at first sight.”
You rolled your eyes and you're sure Wednesday would’ve rolled her eyes as well.
Your mother went on, “A little crow told me that Larissa is now the headmistress, oh she’s just the best. You’ll meet her very soon and see for yourselves. I’m sure she’ll take very good care of you two.”
Humming in response, you watched as the school came into sight. It wasn’t as big as you thought it was and no one was outside to greet you. It seemed like a good school already.
Heading into the school, your mother and father looked around in awe as they started to reminisce. Lurch and Thing stayed in the car as you and Wednesday took after your parents.
Morticia had led you all to the headmistress’ office and knocked gently.
“Come in.”
Your head tingled at the sound of that voice.
With your mother leading the way, you all filed into the office and as you laid eyes on her time felt like it stopped.
She was ethereal.
Nothing in this world, in this dimension, could compare to the woman in front of you. Her snow white hair that was perfectly coiffed to the right. Her plump red ruby lips that contrasted against her alabaster skin. Her deep blue ocean eyes that stared right into your soul. Her whole being called out to you and you could tell she felt it too.
Is this what your parents were talking about? What was this feeling?
“Y/n, did you hear me? Are you alright?”
You subtly shook your head, snapping yourself out of…whatever you were in, “Sorry, what was that?”
“Darling, Principal Weems was talking to you,” your mother said.
Larissa Weems’ smile softened as she watched you turn your attention back to her, “I was saying, dear, that I put you in the same hall as your mother and your sister. Ophelia Hall. Is that alright with you?”
You nodded dumbly, you’d do anything she’d say in a heartbeat. What was this feeling?
“Yes, yes that’s alright Principal Weems.”
“Please, I was friends with your parents, in private you may call me Larissa.”
“O-Of course, Larissa…”
Larissa smiled softly and nodded once before standing.
And oh boy when she stood, that feeling you first felt came back in full force. This woman was an amazon goddess. A beautiful stallion. Although you were tall yourself, she still beat you in height, especially in her beautiful heels.
Wednesday seemed to sense something off about you as she pushed you to stand straighter.
“Well then, if you will follow me, I will show you to your dorms.”
— — — — — — —
You luckily didn’t have to share a dorm as you were only put in Ophelia Hall because of your mother and they didn’t have anymore roommates to bunk up with people. You were happy, or, as happy as an Addams could be, since you weren’t really a people person anyway. 
Watching from a window, you looked on as your parents said their goodbyes to your sister. They were more worried about her than you and so you stayed behind, not needing to be sent off by them.
You heard a pair of heels click their way towards your window and you felt that spike in your heart shoot through the roof.
Larissa on the other hand wanted to know more about you, you intrigued her more than your father had when they were kids. She immediately felt this tug on her heart when she first saw you. At first she thought that it was anxiousness at seeing Gomez and Morticia again but this…this seemed different.
It felt as if her heart came alive in your presence. She had a strong urge to be in your presence, to hold you, comfort you, and protect you. Larissa never felt like this before and she wanted to know why this feeling only came about when you were within her sights.
The white haired woman gently laid a hand on your shoulder, "Not one for goodbyes I assume?"
"They only care about Wednesday being here. As the eldest Addams, I'm just here as support. There's no need for them to say their goodbyes to me."
Larissa frowned slightly, she didn't like the fact that you thought you weren't important here. On the contrary, you were or well, you are becoming important to her. "Nonsense. I'm sure they care about their eldest coming back to their Alma Mater. You'll see."
Maybe.
— — — — — 
As the months went by you and Larissa had gotten closer. Yes you were a student and teacher duo but no one batted an eye when it came to the two of you. You were only 18 so you were just barely able to attend this school anyway.
But you loved the time you spent with the headmistress. She'd ask for your help with checking in on students and although many students thought you were absolutely weird, you did as you were told to do. Your relation to Wednesday made 'making friends' a bit hard but you liked it that way.
You only needed Larissa. At least, it felt like that to you.
It came time to plan for the Rave'N and Larissa asked if you'd like to help. You said yes immediately.
You didn't pick out the all-white theme as Larissa did that (you really liked the color black too much), but you did help set up decorations and you went out to buy Wednesday's dress. Of course you stuck with Wednesday's color palette and got her a lacy black dress that surprisingly had a collar. It was perfect for your sister.
All that was left to do was attend the actual dance.
As a student at Nevermore, you did have your share of friends. You also had a share of admirers (much to the dislike of Weems) yet the only person you wanted to go with was somewhat out of your reach.
There was still the fact that you were a student and she was the principal. Your heart wanted to jump out of that boundary but your mind was holding you back. There were many times where your heart wanted to cross those lines, and you were sure Larissa felt the same. You were certain.
Yet there was always that nagging little voice in the back of your head.
Wednesday could tell that something was going on with you. As much as she spent time with Thing or Enid, you never hung out with your friends unless you were forced to. And so she went about investigating.
On occasion she would follow you to Weems' office and would eavesdrop on your conversations. At times she would hear laughter, yet it didn't belong to Weems.
You didn't laugh…did you? Were you actually happy?
It was clear as day that you were smitten with the principal and Wednesday could see your internal struggle. As a little sister, the least she could do was show some support. So, the night of the dance, she walked over to you and slapped you in the face.
It took you by surprise, you were just enjoying a yet-ini and you were ready to throw down with Wednesday but Thing stopped you by gripping your shoulder.
"Stop overthinking it. Ask her to dance. She's looking over here right now and I'd appreciate it if you stop the insipid googly eyes as it's reminding me of mother and father."
With that, Wednesday simply walked away.
You were left stunned. Was it really that obvious? Should you go for it? But what if–
Wednesday had shot you another look and you gave her a definite nod back. She looked pleased and went back to talking with Enid.
You did pass Larissa as you walked in the doors. She looked as magnificent as ever. You watched in awe as she gushed over her students and saw how happy she was that everyone was enjoying themselves. The passion she had for her job and the protectiveness she had for her students made your heart lurch in your chest. She was truly too good for this world, maybe too good for you, but you bet your ass that you wouldn’t show her how much she meant to you.
Mentally shaking yourself off, you turned towards the doors before you noticed that she wasn’t there anymore. Maybe this was a sign. Yeah. Maybe you—
“May I have this dance y/n?”
You turned to find Larissa right behind you with a hand waiting for you. Gladly taking her hand, she pulled you close by the waist and began guiding you in a waltz, “Cara mia…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N: I'm so sorry I stopped it right there but I got too tired to finish it :/ We'll see if I have the energy and motivation for a part 2 xD but hope you guys enjoyed!

Hello, so I didn’t see anything in you rules about like pregnancy/parenting so just sharing my brain rot, but feel free to delete this ask if it makes you uncomfortable!!
But, Smooches, as a little guy obsessed with genetics and science (planning on getting a degree in biology and other human sciences!!!ヽ(•̀ω•́ )ゝ✧ (my love for dottore has made me more and more of a deranged scientist…)) I’m just thinking about the Harbingers and how strong/dominant their genes might be…
We’ve only seen one of Childe’s siblings (Teucer) but I imagine in genes are STRONG cause his brother is almost the same as him 😭😭 Like you guys have a kid and they have the same blue eyes and ginger hair as Childe!
I also think it would be funny to have a kid with Dottore. I personally believe his genes are actually pretty recessive, but it’s funny to imagine having a kid with him and they look so similar to him everyone thinks it’s another one of his clones! It’s not until they get older or maybe call Dottore ‘father’ or something that it clicks in everyone’s mind that they’re not a clone!
Also, so many of the Fatui Harbingers have multi-colored hair (Arlecchino, Pantalone, Pierrio, Childe and Scaramouche all having a lighter or darker streak. I assume Columbina’s is dyed?) Just imagine their kid inheriting that!!
Oughh… i know all the harbingers would probably be terrible parents but I wanna be all domestic and lovey with them so bad 😭😭 [📺]
UGH YES THIS IS VERY CUTE,,, I TOO AM THINKING ABOUT THIS NOW! But yeah, I guess I never really thought about it but, you are right they look super alike 😭. (But honestly, I wouldn't be surprised when we meet the rest of Childe's family in Snezhnaya, they all look the same purely because that's what is easiest for HYV 😭)
Having a kid with Childe would be like having a mini him around and he absolutely adores it. It would be funny if you two kept trying to have a mini you, but instead all you got was mini Childes running around the place. 😭 AND DOTTORE 😭 I love that no one realizes it's his actual kid because 1. he's not going out of his way to explain the whole situation and 2. no one is questioning the existence of another blue-haired red-eye rascal. (Though when some people *cough those three particular annoying Harbingers* start to get too close to his kid, his irritation is noticeable.)
I imagine their kid does inherit the hairstreak, but in a different part of their hair 🥹 (Also, Pantalone's and Childe's hair streaks make me WDBAHDABWDW i love it sm. But then again the angst hcs of Pantalone getting the gray streak from using his Delusion make me🥲)
Okay but just hear me out on them being parents!! 😤 Well it's obvious Dottore is... Dottore. He struggles to even be a good husband sometimes, so being a parent is... territory none of us can fathom. But, you know I like to think at the very least, he'll remember how he was treated as a kid when he looks at his child,,, especially if his child looks similar to him. Honestly, he leaves a lot of the actual early parenting to you because well,,, he is Dottore, he does not know how to do these kinds of things, his hands are not meant to raise and love. A lot of the time you have to force him to, and well a lot of the time he spends with his kid is them sitting on his lap while he dumps a lot of scientific facts on his child (trying his best to avoid any unethical ones) Really,, he does love his kid, but the way he shows it well,, will need a lot of work (he has a lot of time to improve though because he'll expand the life span of them as well 😅)
Childe, most obviously, would be a very good father if you ask me. He is a family man, he's taken care of his siblings for a long time, he knows exactly what to do not just for his kid but for you too. Despite how his job may keep him away for periods of time, he spends every ounce of free time that he can give away with his kid!! Pantalone too I think would be good, a lot of it stems from how he struggled a lot as a child and he can never imagine his own child ever going through the same as him,, so i can see him as a pretty good parent :3
See, Pierro has the potential to be a very good parent, however, his job literally consumes all of his time,,, like of course he wants to spend time with his kid! He wants to tell them all about his old home and teach them the history and all! But the Fatui, the Celestia, all of it is far too important for him to spend extended amounts of time with his kid. 💔 And he refuses to let his kid mess up their sleep schedule to spend them with him at ungodly hours of the night... 😭 Capitano, another one who has potential! Unfortunately, as much as you taught him how to be more human and how to love, dealing with a kid is a whole other situation that he has no clue how to navigate,, by all means, he wants to learn, he wants to be a good dad, but it's,, a lot for him. Also scared of hurting his kid because of how tiny they are compared to him,, 😭 When the kid gets older though he starts to settle more in though!
Scaramouche, well, it's canon he's fond of kids! He'll be yelling and insulting everyone else but the minute his kid stumbles into his office all of a sudden he's calm! But with all of his trauma and other stuff going on, he doesn't become a better parent until he becomes Wanderer,, it's then when he really devotes more attention to raising his kid. Also is unconsciously overprotective of his kid because of how he lost the little boy centuries ago, so at least they'll never be in harm's way!
Arlecchino already has experience parenting, though she has work to do in like... the emotional and bonding section. Though she holds her children in the orphanage in a fond light, she still keeps them at arm's length because they are her soldiers... but she loves her kid very much!! Columbina is like, the fun parent, you're the one doing the discipline,, She is the one who loves to dress up your kid,, the one who probably lets them get away not eating their veggies 😭 But she is very very scary when she's mad so your kid knows not to get on her bad side!! Also good at putting the kid to sleep with her singing! Sandrone- well... kind of similar to Dottore. You and her child are the only two people she likes. But she also struggles a lot, and leaves a lot of parenting up to you,, though she and her robots keep a very watchful eye on the kid, she does not want them getting hurt with all the things around her lab! She ends up gaining more confidence when she finds out her kid likes to be in her lab during robot rides 🥹 Signora, I can also see being a pretty good parent! She just gives that vibe! I like to think she also has somewhat of a soft spot for kids! She loves taking care of her kid and watching them grow up :3
(Good luck with pursuing your degree btw! All of that sounds quite cool and I wish you all the best :3)

Zuko Alone
I'm hoping for some Appa this episode. It's been too long since he's gotten any good sight gags.
Zuko is cosplaying Clint Eastwood. He's also back to being stupid pale this episode.
You know it's a good thing that Zuko's not in the Fire Nation anymore because he really would have sucked at being Fire Nation. Robbing pregnant women is probably kindergarden level stuff for them.
How is Zuko in such bad shape? Last time we saw him he had a cave full of spoils robbed from rich people. Did he not bother to pack at least some of that stuff? Actually, not thinking far enough ahead to pack would be pretty in character.
Oof that would rub me the wrong way. Not enough money for a meal, but sure, let's use totally edible eggs as ammo.
Tumblr media
Where'd the egg go?
Tumblr media
Who is the scarred up hat wearing vampire and what happened to the real Zuko? Imposter Zuko just elected to not be provoked into a fight. Real Zuko would already be setting things on fire.
Just a bunch of thugs. Yep. It's consistently awesome how many of the facets of war this show can cover.
Imposter Zuko and Song's horse bird just got kidnapped. Did not see that coming.
Tumblr media
Zuko kind of has arm bandages like Sokka has this episode. Also love the character detail that the boy has scraped knees.
Is the kid's dad the same guy as the man at the store? Or maybe this is a one haircut town?
So the guy who was near to fainting off his horse bird this morning is now turning down freely offered food? Could Zuko please shelve his pride for five minutes? Kudos to the mom for accurately reading his distaste for charity and turning it into a request for aid though. Although covering for the boy's egg trick is worth at least a meal.
Tangent!
I don't get Zuko. How can he still have so much pride when he's wearing rags and starving himself to feed Song's horse bird? I'm quite shameless when it comes to accepting help and I've never, ever been able to understand the whole 'too proud to accept charity' mindset. I'm always up for some charity. I have enough manners to offer to do the dishes after, but if you're offering free food I'm eating it. And I've never been in a situation as desperate as Zuko's. So I don't get this.
ok tangent over.
Tumblr media
Peak rich kid behaviour. I hope those nails aren't expensive otherwise Zuko doing work for food might end up with this family out of pocket.
Tumblr media
Is the wood grain on this ladder an actual photograph of wood grain?
Zuko has more patience this episode than he had for all of season 1 combined. He's also never gone this long without yelling. Either proximity to young children activates Zuko's otherwise mostly slumbering decency, or to fit him into a Fistful of Dollars homage the writers had to make him out of character.
Tumblr media
If I had been in this situation when I was a kid, if I had been a) this visibly bored, and b) this nosy around guests, I would have been given a hammer and a bag of nails in three seconds flat. Also, nice to see a Sokka face from Zuko.
I get that 'a man without a past' is a staple of the cowboy genre, but the boy's father bringing up the privacy of the past twice in like two minutes makes me think he's done stuff he doesn't want to talk about. Seems both the parents have read Zuko right though.
Tumblr media
Finally! Some pretty! I have been suffering! This may be the first really good pretty all season!
Tumblr media
Bad news for the Appa decor on my blog. He may have been supplanted in my affections.
Tumblr media
Two things: first, Zuko is a carbon copy of his mom. Second, That is way too much forehead.
Having Zuko's mom introduce herself by talking about the lengths mothers will go to for their children is not giving me foreshadowing anxiety at all.
Tumblr media
Azula's been a bitch since birth. Noted.
Tumblr media
Sir, your eyebrows. Also, yeah, I wouldn't want to play with her either.
Tumblr media
Yikes this is making my teeth itch and my skin crawl. Calling it now, she's rotten to the core.
Zuko and Azula's dad has some weak ass genes. BOTH of his children are carbon copies of their mom.
Also, I was not expecting Zuko's very stupid ponytail to be a pre-scar thing. It is much better with a full head of hair.
Tumblr media
If I had spent my childhood hanging out with an untouchable princess who set things on my head on fire for fun whenever I involuntarily displayed emotion, I'd be gloomy and apathetic in self defense too.
Tumblr media
Sokka in this episode in spirit, if not in person.
Tumblr media
Seriously that's the same face three times over!
Um, no? If Iroh doesn't make it back from the front, doesn't his son become next in line to be Firelord?
Tumblr media
Can you hear all the unspoken "father thinks that" and "father says that" in front of every one of Azula's opinions in this whole scene? I stand by my assertion that she's awful anyways, but she's also obviously drunk much too much of her dad's koolaid, if you know what I mean.
Tumblr media
This kid is going to get into so much trouble one of these days. Provoking the soldiers, nagging the mysterious stranger with the mysterious past, and now taking his weapons? Kid's sweet but he really needs to learn when to stop pushing his luck.
Tumblr media
Stabbing dead, dried wood sounds like a great way to utterly annihilate the edge on those. Hope Zuko packed a whetstone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Where is this patience coming from? I don't understand and it's BUGGING me.
Hold on. Technical problems.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My very basic DVD player sometimes has difficulty with these disks. Whatever happened between the above two screenshots, I've missed it. So picking back up from the one on the right...
Tumblr media
Either these soldiers are impressively cowardly (which, yeah) or Zuko's really been working on his death glare, because they've got him outnumbered and out-armoured and they still back off.
OH it's parallels! Zuko's cousin and the boy's older brother. Got it. Kind of a false parallel though. Grandson of the Firelord does not equal earth kingdom conscript.
Give the demonstrably impulsive and nosy child a knife. That'll work out just fine I'm sure. Pretty sad the kid glommed on to Zuko so quickly, but it's also yet another realistic representation of the consequences of war. This show's good.
Tumblr media
*shudders* theatre kids.
Tumblr media
She's tiny! Do you know how darkly humourous it is to watch a two foot tall baby spout her father's murderous nonsense? Once again, in this whole scene, not a word out of Azula's mouth is actually Azula's.
"What is wrong with that child?" Apart from budding homicidal and psychopathic tendencies? Her dad. Her dad is what's wrong with that child.
Their dad has no subtlety at all. And also no brain? You think a day after the firelord finds out one of his family died is the right time to very boorishly make a play for the crown with you daughter as a prop? Could you possibly come up with a better demonstration of why this guy shouldn't be in charge?
How did this asshole land such a nice wife?
Yep. Siding with the old firelord on this one.
Does flashback Zuko sleep in his day clothes? Because that's not ok.
Tumblr media
I like that their mom sees straight through Azula's lying here. She knows her daughter.
Tumblr media
In a move that should surprise no one, everything Zuko touches turns to shit, as usual.
Tumblr media
It's the Mexico filter!
Absolute truth from Zuko in that monologue. He's got them pegged. Too bad it fell on deaf ears. It's Zuko's curse, that whenever he approaches being remotely reasonable, he happens to be surrounded by people who will react in such a way that Zuko learns to equate being reasonable with failure.
An earthbender. The bare feet should have clued me in.
Last season Zuko and Iroh laid waste to like ten of these guys. And Iroh didn't even have pants. So what gives? Is he that starved?
Tumblr media
Ursa pulling a Mufasa.
Don't answer don't answer don't answer
And he does.
Zuko is so very good at completely misinterpreting the point.
So we can add thief to the list of things that make Azula awful. Also that delivery of "who's going to make me? Mom?" is chilling. Zuko's lost his only defender inside this atrocious family and she knows it, he knows it, hell the turtleducks probably know it.
His dying wish? You guys buying that?
Ozai. That's his name. I'd forgotten that.
So... something something dead firelord something something missing mom something something maybe Azula wasn't actually lying this time?
Final Thoughts
The title wasn't kidding. Let's rename the show 'Avatar: the Guy who's Really Bad at Capturing Him' while we're at it.
There is now no way whatsoever that Zuko is not going to be redeemed. No writing team would invest that much energy and a whole episode into a character we're not ultimately supposed to root for. So somehow he's going to end up joining the Gaang. Don't know how he'll pull that one off. He's done some pretty not great stuff. And it's not like the Gaang watched this episode and unlocked his tragic backstory.
Speaking of, what prompted these reflections? I could understand if Zuko started to contemplate his cousin and the events surrounding his loss in the war after he learned about the family's older brother, but he was having flashbacks before he even got to town. Usually when there are backstory bits, there's a good reason to show them at that time, like how the Storm prompts Aang to think about the last storm he was in, or seeing a boat from his father's fleet prompts Sokka to remember what his dad told him. So what caused Zuko's memories to give him situationally appropriate flashbacks?
Pretty funny that he found the Nice Earth Kingdom Family that Azula predicted for him. And they are really nice! Either Zuko is an open book or the parents' social intelligence is off the charts because they're giving him exactly what he needs to feel at ease after barely a single conversation.
Speaking of Azula, I'm not surprised to find that she's always had deeply awful tendencies, even as a child of (I'm guessing) less than ten. But it cannot be ignored that, from the moment her father took a liking to her (as a tool to boost his own greatness, if not as a person), she didn't stand a chance. You can tell by the number of times that the stuff coming out of her mouth is a thinly veiled repetition of her father's unfiltered opinions, that she's been spending lots of time listening to him, probably while he puts down her mom and brother and talks about how she's the special one. You know what I'm getting at. Azula never stood a chance once her father got involved, and her mom lost the ability to influence her once her father started giving Azula praise for objectively wrong behaviour. That being said, Azula is awful even when she doesn't need to be awful for her father's approval, like when she's with her friends, so it's not all her father's doing. She's not a good person but she also had plenty of help to become that.
I guess Zuko and his mom are Fire Nation anomalies? And maybe Iroh has become that since his son died and he lost the war?
How on earth did Zuko survive as long as he did in the palace without his mom to protect him? What a no-win situation to be in. The only person in a whole nation with empathy.
This episode does makes Season 1 Zuko make more sense. He's been larping his dad as a defense mechanism for surviving the Fire Nation/probably a very futile effort to earn his approval. Although Zuko doesn't seem to care much for his dad if the tone he takes with him by the turtleduck pond is any indication.
Being banished was the best thing that ever happened to Zuko. The more distance between him and his remaining non-uncle family, the better. Between prioritizing his crew over capturing the avatar in the Storm, releasing the Avatar in the Blue Spirit, and now defending a random earth kingdom child this episode, it's hilarious how much Zuko HASN'T learned the lesson that Ozai banished him for not knowing. Don't get me wrong; that's a good thing. This episode plainly shows that behaviour that pleases Ozai is behaviour that should be unlearned as quickly as possible.
Zuko completely missing the point of his mom's last instruction is delightfully on the nose. But it also makes sense, which I may talk more about later.
How did Zuko hold on to his temper (and his volume) for a whole episode?
How did a show named after the main character get away with an episode that doesn't feature him at all? As a concept, this is such a strange episode. The writers were like "how can we kick start the woobification of Zuko? I know! A Spaghetti Western!" and it worked. Who comes up with that?
I now want at least as much, if not more, of Sokka and Katara's childhood via flashbacks. And more Gyatso please. If they can devote a whole episode to the childhood of a guy who isn't even a team member yet, they can show me some Sokka childhood shenanigans as a palette cleanser.
I really don't know what conclusion to draw about this episode. The writers have given me a massive backstory/trauma dump and I'm honestly like:

Ooh you should do like headcannons of what it’s like sleeping next to Peter or having kids with Peter
ohhhh my gosh this is so intimidating, but i'll try my best !!
Tumblr media
💙peter maximoff headcanons💙

💙sleeping next to peter💙
listen, anon...
i personally don't imagine he sleeps
like, at all. ever
but if he did? he's either one of two sleeper types
he might crash like a log. and you won't be able to move him once he's conked out. like good luck tryin' to roll him off you
if you gotta get up? sucks to suck. you're stuck there for a while
but he could also be the type to toss and turn in his sleep
like, all night. super restless. kicking his legs and everything
might even talk a lot in his sleep, rambling incoherent babble
you'd wake up to him saying shit like, "ohhhh shit. forgot i left the cats in the car."
but he doesn't drive. he doesn't even have cats. what's he dreamin' about??? does he dream as fast as he moves????
he might also switch gears a lot. going from super clingy, to super distant really quick
one moment, he's got his cheek pressed to yours, snuggling super close. needing to be near you so bad, otherwise he'll literally die
the next, he wants his space. stretches himself out on the other side of the bed. and if you come too close, he lowkey groans about it. but like affectionately
he's like a picky cat hopped up on too much adrenaline
i don't think he'd be too overly affectionate, though. if anyone wrapped him up in a cuddle session for too long, he might get pretty antsy. just in case he's gotta move
don't even get me started on the potential for morning wood
💙having kids with peter💙
would strive to be the best damn dad ever, and you can't convince me otherwise
since he grew up without a dad himself. he wouldn't want his children to grow up feelin' the way he did
he'd try to be super present in their lives, and very involved. even if things got a little too overwhelming sometimes
he'd wanna be nothing but supportive and loving of all their hobbies and endeavors
peter knows when to set boundaries, but he'd have a tendency to be a little too lenient
once his kid got a little older, he'd be so tempted to drag them into some harmless trouble. to your dismay
like, they'd start pulling pranks on you together. but the pranks are as simple as pelting you with water balloons when you're least expecting it
or, oh no! he ran them to mcdonald's for somethin' to snack on. without you! and right after you said you were gonna make dinner that night too! they'll ruin their appetites like that!
"okay, but they really wanted nuggets. wouldn't stop askin' about it. they even said please! what was i supposed to do? say no!? look at this face!!" and he gestures to your kid's precious doll face
if his kid is born with mutant genes, he'd be so goddamn proud
and a little worried too. he'd be terrified of how his kid would be treated in school, especially for bein' different
that is...unless you enrolled your kid at charles's school. most ideal scenario honestly. peter would feel way more content then
his kid definitely wants to become a great, x-men hero like their papa someday
he introduces his kiddo to his favorite music wayyyy early on. like, your newborn is resting in their crib. and he's playin' pink floyd like it's a lullaby
"honey, we really gotta make sure this lil rascal's educated, don't we?" but he's talking about exposing them to david bowie
but if his kid grew up listening to all the genres he doesn't, he'd still be as supportive as he could
his kid likes lil nas or lady gaga or somethin'? he's takin' the whole family to a live show. he's wearing the merch. he's learning the songs. he's singin' those songs in the crowd
i do think he'd get pretty anxious, though. might worry he's not a good enough father. maybe thinks he's not cut out for it. you have to reassure him all the time: he's doing the best he can. better than you could ever hope for
he's busy with hero work and teaching a lot of the time. when he starts to get a lil too absent, he's terrified he's neglecting his kid in some way
but he's got no idea his kiddo thinks the entire world of him. literally the coolest dad ever in the history of the universe. his kid will go to school and be like "yeah well my dad's quicksilver"
he's the kinda dad who's gonna splurge on christmas gifts. so many, you won't be able to see the floor. you're worried he stole them all. but he swears on his life he paid for everything. he's gotta set a good example, after all !!
impossible challenge: try not to feel soft after thinkin' about him sitting in his kiddo's bed. readin' a bedtime story. doin' silly voices and pointing at all the pictures
the bedtime stories are x-men comics

Guessing game: Farm
Context: a familial soulmates AU is happening to newly-decanted baby clone "Superman" and Ma and Pa "it's free alien baby" Kent.
The waitress comes back with the drinks and asks if they're ready to order, and then they have to actually read the menu. She leaves them to it. The Zesti does taste really good, but Superman has a hard time concentrating on the menu and barely resists the urge to glance up at Jonathan and Martha every five seconds.
"Oh, wait–can you read yet, kiddo, or do you need some help with that?" Jonathan asks with a faint frown as he glances up at him himself, and somehow the question doesn't sound judgmental at all.
Weird, Superman thinks again.
"Yeah," he says. "Um–Cadmus was educating me with information uploads. I didn't finish them, but I can read and write and do, like . . . well, some math, anyway. I got through trig and precalc, mostly. Uh, and some chemistry and biology. And, like, I can speak English and Spanish and a little Mandarin, and I know basic ASL. I don't think I'm actually as smart as they thought I was gonna be, though, some of it's kinda . . . confusing, to be honest? And they only ever showed me stuff once, I think they just thought I'd . . . you know, get it."
"You're two weeks old!" Martha says with an exasperated huff. "Those damn morons, you're gonna need a lot more than two weeks' worth of yellow sun before you're going to get the eidetic memory or the enhanced intelligence."
"The–what?" Superman blinks. Jonathan and Martha glance at each other, oddly, and then back to him.
"Superman had perfect recall," Jonathan says. "Hyperthymesia. A photographic memory, you might call it."
"Oh," Superman says, blinking again. "Uh–I didn't know that."
"I don't know how much most people ever thought about it, so far as his powers went," Jonathan says with a shrug. "Not quite as flashy as the heat vision or the flying. Actually it's a surprise you can fly this quick, come to think."
"I'm sort of . . . cheating," Superman mutters, ducking his head. "My Kryptonian physiology isn't developed enough to give me the real powers yet and they didn't know how long it might take for them to come in, so they sort of . . . there's like this . . . field, kind of, that the original Superman put off? Subconscious telekinesis, I guess. Skin-tight force field, basically. It's why bullets weren't ripping up his suit all the time and why he could, like, pick up a whole freaking bus or whatever one-handed and it wouldn't just break in half from the fucked-up–uh, the messed-up support. The field would just wrap around whatever he was touching and reflexively keep it together. So Cadmus just kinda . . . copied that and cranked it up to eleven, for me. So I'm telekinetic, kind of?"
"Huh," Martha says, looking a little puzzled. "You know, that never even occurred to me, but it certainly explains a few things."
"It only works when I'm touching something," Superman says, fidgeting uncomfortably and feeling kind of like . . . well, he guesses his powers not being the same as the original Superman's were yet isn't gonna disappoint the Kents, right? Like, why would they care? "It's tactile-based. But I can always use it on myself. So I can fly and pick up real heavy shit and hit like I've got super-strength and make it look like I'm invulnerable. No heat vision or ice breath or X-ray vision or, uh, eidetic memory, though. Or super-speed or super-senses."
And definitely, definitely no enhanced intelligence.
"So you mean you're going to be stronger than Superman was?" Martha asks with a little frown, and Superman . . . blinks.
"Uh . . . I don't think so?" he says uncertainly, not sure where she got that idea. "I don't know how the hybridization of my DNA will affect, like . . . any of the Kryptonian powers. They might turn out weaker than his were, since my genes are sort of already adapted for a yellow sun."
"I don't know, being primed to process yellow sunlight might make your powers end up stronger, on that logic," Jonathan points out reasonably. "Once you grow into them a bit, anyway. And either way you'll have the telekinesis enhancing your strength and invulnerability, and that might get stronger too. And, well, at least some hybrids have a tendency to turn out bigger and stronger than their parent species."
Superman tilts his head. Blinks a couple times.
"Huh," he says.
Well, there's a really freaking cool and absolutely fucking terrifying thought.
"How do you know all that?" he asks. "Are you a biologist or something?"
"I'm a farmer, son," Jonathan says wryly. "I'm talking about mules and wolfdogs."
"You're a farmer?" Superman repeats in absolute bemusement.
"We both are, dear," Martha says. "All our lives. We live out in Smallville, actually, we're just here visiting . . . well. Clark's fiancée. Her name is Lois."
"Where's Smallville?" Superman asks, still bemused.
"Kansas," Martha says. "We have a little farm out there. And . . . well, we'd very much like to take you in, obviously, though I don't know where you're staying right now."
"Just, like–wherever, right now," Superman says awkwardly, trying not to sound as pathetic as he's pretty sure he does even as he wonders how that's supposed to be "obvious". He's not, like, a little kid or anything. It's not like he can't take care of himself. "Like, it's not really . . . just wherever."
Jonathan and Martha glance at each other. Superman feels embarrassed. It's not like it matters where he's staying, and like, he'll find a place, eventually, just . . . he hasn't quite figured out how to do that yet. That's all.
Cadmus, unfortunately, did not prepare him to ever live . . . well. Outside of Cadmus.
"Would you like to visit, at least? Take a look around?" Jonathan offers. "It's not too far a flight from Metropolis."
"Um . . . maybe," Superman says, really not sure what he'd ever do on a farm of all places. Like, in what way is a farm a "Superman" kind of place to be?
Though he guesses it'd be politer than making Jonathan and Martha come to Metropolis. And if they actually . . . if they really want to see him . . .
He could swing by sometimes, that's all. He guesses he'd have to be careful about doing it because probably the Kents aren't gonna want anybody to know they're his soulmates, given the whole "being civilians" thing. Maybe he can just . . . just pretend to be . . . he doesn't know, exactly? Just–maybe some random distant relative or something. Maybe they have some cousins or whatever. Or just . . . something.
Superman actually has no idea how many people hang out with their extended family members like that, to be honest, but it's the best idea he's coming up with right now.

awww poor Yoichi :(
Hmm, do you have any immortal headcanons?
I felt so sorry for him the whole time I was writing that AU. But yes, I do have some immortal OFA users headcanons.
Note: This time, an immortality quirk got mixed in with stockpile, so the users all had to fake their deaths. The headcanons go from there.
Yoichi had fun writing the books he always wanted to write, but under a pseudonym of course. His brother hates his books of course and vows to hunt down the author. (Yoichi does change pseudonyms and stuff every few years)
Also, once every few years, Yoichi will get HOOKED on some trend. It lasts about twice as long as it takes for the trend to die down.
Second married Yoichi and while he wanted to just steal what they needed; Yoichi convinced him to get money in a more ethical way. So, he became a mechanic. The only bad thing is they have to move every few years as they look the same age they were when they passed on OFA. Like the vampires in Twilight.
I headcanon Third as aro/ace, so this is a duoholders universe.
Also, Third becomes a therapist. He figured he would be qualified after so many years being the therapist friend. And he is good at it, but he also runs into the Twilight issue. Even so, the 3 are never far apart from each other. Third does have his own place, but he's always there if the other two need anything and vice versa.
(I have a weird version of trioholders where, while the first two holders are romantically involved, their friendship with Third runs so deep, that if he died, they would be destroyed. Same with Yoichi and Second. They all need and understand each other in a way so deeply, it goes beyond any normal intimacy. Like, platonic soulmates I guess is the best word for that.)
Hikage lives in the woods. After 18 years of being chased around, he decided to fake his death and give OFA to Banjo. So, now he lives with the forest creatures in peace. Third still drags him out for the occasional family dinner though.
Banjo uses his extra immortal time to become talented at, not just normal hobbies, but really weird stuff like peeling a banana with his feet like a monkey. In addition to bothering Hikage, he decided to try his hand at a childhood dream and become a cowboy. That didn't work out, so he travels the world instead.
My headcanon for En is that he had 5 siblings, so immortality would give him a lot of grieving to do. However, I also headcanon him as a lover of reptiles and technology, so he used his immortal time to get acquainted with all the new tech coming out each year and finally get a pet chameleon. He also got a degree in Graphic Art. However, he chooses to make his money by doing commissions.
Nana did give away her son after her husband died, but only until she faked her death. Then she got him back, so Kotaro doesn't end up being as bad, but there's definitely still some tension between them as she didn't tell him about her plan. She hides away, with Gran Torino helping her try to raise Kotaro as normally as possible. Meaning his last name does end up changed because Torino adopts him, but he co-parents with Nana. It's complicated. At least Hana and Tenko are happy children with grandparents who spoil them and a better dad. Nobody wants to be on the bad side of both Nana and Gran Torino.
Toshinori did not know about the immortality thing. Nana forgot to tell him, and he just thought his master had really good genes. So, he has the same knowledge in canon. In fact, his life is pretty much like canon, as they figured it was best that he goes to America for a bit to keep AFO away from Nana's hiding place. He also gets into the same fight with AFO, but sustains the same damage. You see, the immortality quirk doesn't keep them from getting hurt, it just keeps them from dying.
Oh yeah, remember the family dinners Hikage gets dragged to? Those are between every OFA user. Toshinori just thinks they're historians who love to joke around. He has to believe it at this point. At least they only happen once a year, unless there's an emergency, like a new user or a faked death. Or, AFO dying (is he dead?)
Then Toshinori brings Izuku to OFA family dinner. Cue the awing over the new user (who looks oddly familiar). There was some worry over how Izuku would adjust to the quirk, but they all assumed All Might had it figured out. That man was taught by someone who beat the crap out of him daily. All Might did not have it figured out.
(After the AFO fight, the other users convinced All Might to get a hobby or something, so he decided to try and get the credentials to become a teacher, because he always loved children. The credits to become a kindergarten teacher that is, so the jump to high school is still going to take some adjustment. Not to mention training a middle school boy to handle a quirk you gave them. I don't think there's a book on that.)
After the entrance exams, out of worry for their new user, all the vestiges move to the Musutafu area around UA to help with Izuku's training. The users get along great with Inko (who was told about OFA.) And Yoichi's brother and Inko's husband sure have a lot of similarities. What a coincidence...
From here they get upto all sorts of school-themed hijinks, but I'll let you imagine them. (The eventual meeting with Aizawa is always a fun one to imagine)
Uh... this did not turn out how I thought it would. It was supposed to be random headcanons and not a story outline. I did keep some stuff vague on purpose. Anyway, I hope you liked it :)

Maple Arc
Mapleshade's arc is a lot more politically motivated and complex than in the original.
Mapleshade's family descends from the original settlers, as does Oakfell's. At this point, the Thunder Champions and the Beach Rafters have been waring for a long time and Starwalker Oakfell is very keen on securing his legacy. Oakfell has two (legal) children with his wife, Sweetbriar. A single daughter, Kindlingwish, and a child, Birchface. Starwalker Oakfell basically wants to hook his kids up with a cat that'll give them stronger genes (stronger to him). Mapleshade is picked by Oakfell to be Birchface's mate and heavily pressured into it. Mapleshade is a very daring cat, a peak Thunder Champion and her only remaining family is her grandmother who is too old to be having kittens. Mapleshade and Birchface are good as friends, but aren't interested in each other that way. They both learn that, ironically, they both have mates in the Beach Rafter colony. They bond over this and decide to keep it their little secret and cover for each other. Kindlingwish on the other hand as her heart set on a cat her father disapproves of. Vipergrass has mostly kittypet/loner ancestry. Oakfell continues to push his daughter towards marrying Thrushtalon, who has 'better' lineage. When Mapleshade gets pregnant with Appledusk's kits, Birchface agrees to cover as the kits' father. The night before another battle, Birchface is going on a small walk with his mate, Saltswim and learns from them that Appledusk has been courting a cat named Reedshine behind Mapleshade's back. Angered and wanting to defend his friend, Birchface aims to get Appledusk alone so he can tell Appledusk he knows his little game and to apologize to Mapleshade. Appledusk realizes that he's in trouble and out of panic more than anything kicks Birchface into the rapids, which kills him and his young apprentice, Flowerpaw. Mapleshade hears of Birchface's death and is heartbroken. Birchface never got to tell her what he knew. Mapleshade keeps meeting Appledusk in secret who recounts the whole thing as an accident, that Birchface had slipped and hit his face against the slick rocks, crashing into the river. Mapleshade believes him and has his kits shortly after, passing them off as Birchface's kits.
When the kittens can barely walk, they pass as Birchface's kits easily. Especially Larchkit and Petalkit, while Patchkit is a 'mini mapleshade'. However as they grow, something is off about them. Ravenwing gets requested (read demanded) to do a summoning for Oakfell. Birchface refuses to answer and other cats appear instead, dark spirits that send Ravenwing the omen that Mapleshade's kits are half-colony cats. Not only that, but their true father is Birchface's murderer.
Mapleshade is forced to stay in the nursery to receive her punishment. Her grandmother, Fennelbush, her old mentor Bloomheart, and the deputy, Beestinger. Starwalker Oakfell catches on quick though and to save his conspirators Beestinger takes the blame and is executed. Loyal followers of Starwaker Oakfell (and those afraid of him), chase mapleshade and her kits, hunting them down. It blocks off Mapleshade's escape to anywhere except the Beach Rafters. A storm has brewed through all this and the rivers have turned to rapids. With no other choice, Mapleshade tries to get her kits across, but she and her babies are knocked into the water.
Nearby a Beach Rafter patrol, gathering supplies before the storm gets too bad, hear something going on. Even though Starwalker Darklightening had put propaganda through all her colony's heads, several cats were still firm believers in the 'Life Law'. Two important cats in the patrol are Eeldive who rescued Mapleshade from the water when the actual rescuers wouldn't, and Saltswim, Birchface's mate who had been mourning in silence and guilt, chases after Mapleshade's kits. Eeldive convinces the others to take Mapleshade to the colony and sadly, Saltswim comes back with the dead kittens, Mapleshade crumbles as her life falls apart, only for salt to be rubbed in her wounds when Appledusk proclaims he never loved her, when Saltswim spills his secret. Reedshine, Appledusk's legal mate is so horrified by her colony's treatment of Mapleshade and her mate, that she renounces their mateship then and there. Eeldive, Saltswim, and Reedshine all care and try to protect Mapleshade, when eventually Starwalker Darklightening states that basically Mapleshade is banished.
They continue to care for her in secret as Mapleshade finds her way around to the barn where Myler lives. Myler agrees to house Mapleshade. Eeldive Reddshine and Mapleshade slowly get closer, but Reedshine is pregnant. Maple and her sort of. both know its appledusk's but dont mention it out loud due to the pain of it. Grieving still, Mapleshade tries to sneak to Moonstone to contact Birchface or her kittens or, anyone really. She runs into Ravenwing, who threatens her, but when he mentions her kits in a bad way, Mapleshade attacks him. It's the biggest taboo of all the colonies to attack a healer. Mapleshade had no intention of killing him, but the battle escalates and Ravenwing ends up dead. Mapleshade is badly startled by this and combined with her nightmares she starts not eating or drinking, which leads to her hallucinating.
Later Mapleshade stumbles into Kindlingwish sort of by accident while trying to sneak over to pay respects at Birchface's grave. They get into a small argument which Kindlingwish turns into a physical fight as her grief overwhelms her. By accident, Kindlingwish is bitten by an adder and a scared, confused Mapleshade hears a patrol coming, leaving Kindlingwish to be found and having the patrol see her running from the scene of the crime.
Kindlingwish survives with some lifelong issues and dives into her bitterness, marrying Thrushtalon to please her father and having one kit, Pinefall (named after her father somewhat). She remains bitter and claims to her death that Mapleshade had tried to kill her. meanwhile back into time where Mapleshade is running away, she finds Eeldive who states Reedshine has started to go into labor. Mapleshade rushes to her and helps with her kitting. Soon after, Appledusk decides he's pissed and bitter and gathers supports to 'return reedshine' who he states had been kidnapped by Maple, Eel, Salt, and Myler. he plans on basically forcing Reedshine to come back with him and re-marry him at any cost. A battle breaks out, ending with Mapleshade killing Appledusk and chasing the battle party off. For awhile, Maple, Salt, Reed, and Myler (and Myler's husband) raise the kits and live as barncats/loners. later when Starwalker Darklightening dies, (probably to battle?) the next leader invites the group to return and live in the Beach Rafters colony were previous transgressions would be forgotten. After heavy debate they agree and eventually Maple, Eel, and Reed become wives. Though Mapleshade is haunted deeply by what happened and even at her death, the story around her has shapeshifted over the years.

Interview with Dr. Jelle Wauters, from the Department of Biology!
Do you have a specialization of some kind (types, wildlife, etc.) or do you just general biology? - @nobetternamethanthat2 , anonymous
My research is mainly related to type genetics! Although every Weavile is an ice type, the potency and the ability to control those ice powers may vary between individuals. I also study type-related diseases as they seem to be genetically passed down as well. During the Domestication era, this kind of variance was extremely rare among Pokemon. Nowadays, Pokemon have at least a bit of human DNA in them, and this seems to have affected some family lineages. So this is a bit of a new phenomenon that a lot of research is being put into.
What got you into biology? Why do you like it, do you have a favourite thing about it? - @megamannickblog , @ecoxlar-maybe, @theonlycampix , @tailsluigi
Well for my specific interest, I've been around Pokemon who suffer from type-related deficiencies all my life. I am actually one of them! My ice powers are very weak, almost nonexistent. I always wanted to know the science behind that so I decided to get more into it.
Biology is so fascinating as a whole though! There are so many different species of Pokemon with their own quirks and abilities, it's fun to learn about how every single one works. Even Pokemon that seem man-made and robotic, they have their own central nervous systems, digestive systems, etc. I think the diversity pulled me in too.
Is there any part of the curriculum you look forward to teaching most? -anonymous
When teaching my Type biology classes I am always excited to talk about the genetics behind it of course! It is only a small portion of the course, a lot of it is on the more “physical” side of things, how the powers are generated, how it affects our bodies and stuff like that. But it is nice to talk about my specific interest, even for a bit…
Do you have a least and favourite part about teaching biology? - @neonellie
I think my favourite part is being able to educate passionate students about something I am passionate about as well. It's hard to think of a least favourite aspect. Probably the grading, but I don't know anyone who enjoys that.
If you had to pick another subject to teach what would you pick? - @ecoxlar-maybe
Biology related? Probably the anatomy of different kinds of Pokemon. Non biology related, maybe chemistry? Biochemistry. Oh, I made that related to biology. Haha!
What's your biggest achievement during your time as a student? - @smartguy18
Oh, I've done many many research projects as a student! I guess the one I'm most proud of is the work I did with one of my professors on grass type decay. Some grass types inherit a trait that makes their body decay quite fast…like a flower that is constantly deprived of water. I worked on trying to identify what gene causes this. It is a topic very significant to me!
How did you end up teaching at Harmonia? Did you grow up around Arboria, what brought you here? -Bijoux from @redolentgrove , Minuy600
Oh, I didn't grow up here! I grew up in a region overseas called Rhinia. Honestly I was desperate to look for anywhere that would take me in. Harmonia University was the first one that got back to me, I had heard good things about it so I decided to come here! And I don't regret it!
How do you deal with rowdy students? -anonymous
Oh, I barely get any. I usually teach upper year students and grad students. They are usually pretty well-behaved. There's the occasional dispute with grades and stuff like that but I think the best thing to do is to listen, stay as calm as possible and try to reach common ground.
What do you do in your free time? - @dawnnotsomom, @askgodmotherdaringdo
I love sports! Especially winter sports, such as figure skating and snowboarding. During other seasons I like to hit the badminton court. Other than that, I building and painting figurines.
Do you like video games? If so, what genres? -anonymous
I do play occasionally. Mostly farming and city-building sims.
Your hair always looks really pretty. Do you have a specific morning routine to keep yourself looking so nice? If not, have you tried experimenting recently with your fashion at all? - @missclovercat
Haha, thank you! My hair is naturally puffy like this due to my mother being a Flareon. A little wash and blow dry gets it like this! I'm not really one to experiment with fashion at all, anything comfortable and keeps me cool works.
Do you have anyone special in your life? - @wevelocityteampresents-blog
Oh hoho….yes….I have two! My lovely wife and daughter. I wouldn't know how to live without them.
This isn't a question but @winguontheweb has said that they love that you look like pink lemonade!
Tumblr media
Oh! Well…thank you! That is quite the compliment. I love pink lemonade, haha!
Any tips for someone who wants to learn biology? -Wil from @ask-the-shiny-pokemons
Well, you're interested - that's a great start! If there's an aspect of biology you're interested in, such as microbiology, genetics, anatomy, etc… the easiest thing to do is just look up resources to learn about that topic! You may want to borrow books about it in the library, listen to lectures, watch educational videos, etc. Then you can expand to other topics! Soon enough you'll be an expert!
That concludes the interview! Do you have any closing remarks?

I basically day dream this soooo this could be any genshin character that you want…
So this is how it goes, one of the genshin men, xiao in my imagine, were transported first to our world and get to meet the reader first. Then a few years after that, the other genshin men arrive in our world.
And the funny part is that Childe immediately started to propose on the spot
Childe: Please marry me! I’ve been waiting for ages to be with you.
Reader: … I already have children.
Childe: Don’t worry I’m good with kids. I’ll make sure to be a great fa-
Reader: I’m also married.
Childe: … who is this man? *he says calmly as he prepares who’s hydro blades*
Then reader called out to Xiao and xiao appear carrying their kids. Ya know those baby carriers you strapped on your torso. Yeah imagine xiao with that, while holding hands with the other kid.
Childe and Xiao basically have a stare off. If it weren’t for the children on Xiao, Childe would have lunge on him already.
The other men are too stun to speak because of Childe’s shamelessly then Reader’s reveal about having a family with Xiao.
Altho regardless of who got to reader first if it isn’t Childe he would demand a death match.
Idk I just randomly thought of this. Sorry for rambling. It was a cute idea that I wanted to share.
lol i would imagine this with zhongli who was reverse isekai'd to our world. our children better take his genes i mean look at this beautiful, beautiful man
childe does seem like the type to challenge your s/o for your hand in marriage - i mean this man was willing to potentially sink a whole city to the ocean... but i'd like to hope that when he sees you so happy with your partner, he would slowly back off...
cute concept!! i'm glad you're daydreaming about things that make you happy, and thank you for sharing with us about it!! in turn, lemme share a daydream of mine <3
whenever i feel like i'm touch starved and want to hug someone but can't because of circumstances, i'd hug my plushies before going to bed and imagine something like this:
Tumblr media
cuddles with xiao! he's probably shorter than you so he would be the little spoon. but even if he's taller than you - still, be the big spoon. he might scoff and say things like 'adepti do not need sleep'. well, ignore him. as soon as your arms wrap around him and pull him flush against your body, he wouldn't make any effort to push you away even if he certainly could.
nuzzle his neck. kiss the top of his head. relax and regulate your breathing calmly, maybe hum a calming song if you're into that, and wait.
xiao will slowly relax. the frown between his eyebrows disappears. the downturn of his lips smoothening out into a neutral line bordering on an upward curve. the blush on his cheeks washes out. if you're brave enough, don't be afraid to tuck his head into your chest - he loves hearing your heartbeat. unknowingly, his own heart syncs with yours, along with his breathing.
when you drift to sleep, he might follow - and if you're lucky, he might even join you in your dreams, where you can continue to cuddle in a field of flowers <3

Been keeping away from the drama cause I'm mostly tired, want to mostly focus on the original series, and I can't wait for this fanfic to completely die truly from the death drag is doing since it's long overdue; but after reading this— it needed to be addressed. Saw some copium going on about it already.
You can say stuff like "he is a yōkai", "he was always like that", "he is too good to lower himself to the standards and morals of humans", "retcons can happen" "you see? Rumiko is supervising now", "You weren't paying attention to the story" "the translation should say this instead of this" etc etc. Sure. of course, Jan. All that shit is bs as shown in the source material a thousand times already. Ok, moving on.
but AGAIN this Sesshomaru is just not the same one. Not the same to the original anime and not the same og manga either. This is like a completely different character than what we've been shown before. Nope. Ken Narita said it best and knew it.
This one is a completely regressed version and you can die on the hill after punching me in the face "that it's the same one, it's canon" but the original one wouldn't let crap like this slide. Oh yes, I know he's not a fucking prince charming; for sure! WE ALL KNOW. But Sesshomaru had already grown enough that he gave a fuk at least about those around him. Even if he's a person who barely expresses himself. So, much so, that no matter how you view the relationship of him and Rin— you know he was still coming to see and make sure he was okay even when she was in a village that might as well be safe 💯% thanks to his brother along his wife + inugang and others. He took care of Kohaku after Kikyo died! He regretted not leaving Rin in a village earlier when she lost her life again. Here, he's whole family are accessories. You got even Shippo weirdly being his servant all of a sudden. You can measure the regression with a ruler 📐
The vibes Rumiko Takahashi is giving me at this point are: A) she doesn't give a fuk because the og story is FINISHED as she has talked before (tbh this woman didn't give a fuck starting the last half of the series cause you can look up her interviews on Rumic World/Furinkan, and she was half ass winging it by the end cause that's how much she stopped vibin with her "Magnum Opus". Thanks Sunrise) and since she doesn't give a fuk, she doesn't want to even bother looking at her own source material. This is why I've gone mostly "Death of the author" with her at this point.
B) The other thing could be as well that she's fuking this thing on purpose. "But, Gene she's supervi—" no shut up. And stop snorting the copium. You'd think if this was canon she'd be truly wanting to sell the story and this ship, but it's like she wants to make sure he along everything else is the worst possible every chapter. If she truly is supervising, cause honestly she still feels like she quickly looks over sht, goes "whatever, I'm done with this" and goes back to doing Inuyasha revamp *cough* I mean MAO. Though, it's quite understandable why she was so reluctant to allow this in the first place.
And let me tell you, the "Character becomes terrible parental unit when the next generation is born, so their past growth is thrown out the window" trope. It's OVERUSED GARBAGE that fuks up good stories 🗑️🚮 You got characters that are really similar to Sessh that are doing better in other animes for Pete's sake. LIKE "THE VILLAIN" OF YASHAHIME: KIRINMARU 🦄🤡
It's pitiful really. I dunno how anyone can still enjoy this because "uWu it gives me crumbs". Nah, have some standards. Other people can do better stories. Other people can write this better while still respecting the original story. And I'm not saying you can't enjoy some things from it, because you can (like Moroha, Kirin, the Mirsan kids, whatever). But this could've been better done. Peace.

dating neil perry <3 (latine version)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
warning(s): none:)
pair: neil perry x gn!reader
one shot or hc: hc
note: i got the idea from this post, so thank you so much!! im mexican so it might seem like i mention mexican culture more like music and food (its what i know!), but i do try my best to be inclusive since latin america has such rich history. this is me trying to write within the time period of the 50s/60s <3. let me know if you wish a more modern version, enjoy!
Tumblr media
-neil is a love at first sight kind of guy, he literally saw you laughing all giggly and couldn't stop smiling himself
-your friends teased you by singing piel canela by los panchos, "me importas tú, y tú, y tú, y solamente tú~"
-and as you kept laughing, all red, neil finally got the courage from his friends even though his heart was all smushed by your angelic smile
-when he was finally determined to ask you on a date, that man was calm, cool, and collected which made you even more nervous as he approached your friends and you
-he'd give you those puppy dog eyes and you'd immediately melt before a word is even said
-once neil asks you out, it seems a crowd cheers somewhere beyond and neil can only chuckle sheepishly at his friends' reactions
-you guys begin dating and neil finds your culture fascinating! (in a good way lol)
-he'd want to know all the holidays, celebrate with you, to hell with his dad and his rules (he loves you too much <3)
-when he experienced latin music for the first time he would never go back
-he'd buy so many vinyls from different genres and constantly ask you to slow dance in the living room like the love birds you two are
-neil is the type to slowly get into the groove of things to dance cumbia, bachata, salsa
-oh but he will learn and surprise your whole family! it makes you kinda jealous when your primos are there watching him
-but he reminds them of you by giving you a kiss
-you'd hum some songs and be very surprised when he comes along singing the lyrics (maybe not perfect, but it’s so cute)
-it made you realize just how much he is trying to understand you who are, your language, which is so important to you
-you call him 'mi amor' (my love) and he would always ask what that means but you didn't want to say
-it basically means you love him and that was scary
-but imagine him singing cien años by pedro infante? it'd be the first time you'd say 'i love you'
-he alternatively says i love you and te amo because he loves you sooooo! much
-you'd giggle and say "yo tambien te amo, mi amor"
-he would always have cute nicknames like 'my darling' or 'my angel' but then he started using 'cariño'
-only when you two were alone because he was afraid his pronunciation wasn't too well
-you have no idea who he learned it from, but it made you tear up the first time you heard it from him
-his favorite part about being with you is the food, like at one point he'd just be like 'fuck it!' and make tamales with all the women
-his favorite desert is arroz con leche because i said so!
-he can’t handle spicy food, im sorry yall but i have to be accurate, the white genes </3
-curse words/phrases in spanish? he would know them all because your primos would tell him to say [x] and he'd do it without question lmaoo
-obviously you would not stop it because its kinda hilarious, but you would eventually inform him on what the words/phrases mean
-overall he'd get along with your family like they might call him 'guerrito' but he wouldn't mind
-neil would be surprised by the amount of spanish covers from english songs and vice versa, but it really opened his eyes to a new world
-he loves you, your culture, language, food, music, and everything else that comes with it
-sure, sometimes he doesn't understand what you're saying but he makes sure to study real hard and eventually become fluent in spanish
-his favorite part is when you sing to him (or listening to a song), something soft like cielito lindo :( and you watch him fall asleep as you stroke his hair
-neil perry is the best boyfriend fr <3

Hey bud. Got some Starburst duo headcanons for ya
Chris has an allergy to bees. They obviously can't sting him because of his steel skin, but whenever he's near them, he gets bad itchy rashes on himself (usually on his neck and face first) and has to get away from them before it gets worse
Jake loves mushroom toppings on his pizza. Chris loves pineapple and sausages on his
Jake loves the color red. Chris likes purple and pale pink
At certain times, Jake will panic about stuff and can sometimes exaggerate things a bit because of it, especially whenever he's trying to solve a case since he'll get a little too ahead of himself while still in the middle of putting things together, which can make him look a little like a drama queen during moments in front of others
Jake owns a fish named Sammy
Chris enjoys the rain at night during bedtime since it's peaceful to him
Chris' favorite animals are birds and horses
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I Like these, Buddy. I like them A WHOLE LOT @spider-jaysart
💙💖💙
If I may add a tad bit more or maybe expand on these;
- Sammy in particular is a small common clownfish and lives inside one of the biggest tanks they can afford that can fit inside the apartment’s living room. Jake consistently keeps his eyes on Sammy whenever he’s in the living room; he’s seen plenty of online videos of the worst fish owners imaginable and he’s determined not to repeat their mistakes
- One of Chris’ annoyances that can truly get to souring his mood would be seeing bad takes and posts from anywhere that state claims of ‘Superman is an alien who only does the good things because it makes us humans puny, insignificant and stupid compared to other beings’, ‘Superboy Red is only great at thing and that’s being an utter waste of genes and he can’t even do that right’, basically any takes that discredit his family is something he truly doesn’t appreciate
- Some of the classmates at Chris’ school often compare his relationship with Thara to that of Peter Parker and MJ Watson not just due to the latter having similar enough red hair to MJ but also her more outgoing and spunky personality that complements Chris’ more introspective and relatively reserved one brings in mind the similarities to Peter X MJ. Even Chris can comment that those comparisons aren’t necessarily unfounded
- Due to his 6 stomachs and physiology, Jake can tolerate eating less than adequate food at restaurants and is pretty resilient to food borne illnesses. That being all said, it also helps him detect if a meal or few aren’t healthy for regular humans to have less they risk food poisoning. Anytime Jake is in the kitchen whether it be for late night snacks or even volunteering to make dinner, he’s almost religiously very careful about what his hands touch and keeping them clean when possible so that he doesn’t risk cross contamination. Having Chris as a companion in the kitchen in turn becomes very handy via the latter having microscopic and x ray vision at his disposal.

Sunset Valley - again
Like many of you, I've been following @greenplumbboblover's Sunset Valley Chronicles - or whatever she's named it. (Old-timers' disease!). Which made me nostalgic for SV - probably my favorite town to play. And while I've been playing, I've been re-doing the lots. Because I can!
Tumblr media
I moved the family in that multi-colored, hot mess of a house into this one. This was a remake of theirs that was done a gazillion years ago by @lilymayrose. You can see the original over on her blog - which is still active. Or at least up. (Lily's Sim Antics (lilyssimantics.blogspot.com).
Tumblr media
Anyway, I did make changes - mostly to the outdoor landscaping. The original had a swimming pool in the backyard and since I have 3 pools in this frammin town, unless you are super rich like the Landgraabs, Altos, or Goths, I expect my lazy sims to use the public facilities. But back to my changes. I resurfaced the driveway and added that spot where the trashcan and bicycles are. Then I resurfaced the sidewalks, moved flowerbeds, and gave them a hot tub. (I'm not entirely mean!)
Tumblr media
I didn't do a whole lot to the inside - because I liked her version. Maybe switched out some rugs and got rid of all the toddler junk - because I aged the rugrat up.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anyway, here's the family - the Single Moms. Fiona has finally come out-of-the-closet and is currently trying her darndest to convince Molly that they should be exclusive. (Their lifetime relationship is around 41 - even though they are supposedly "girlfriends.") I'm guessing, hating your beloved's cookie-cruncher is not the way to endear yourself to the object of one's affections. River - the teen - just wants the 2 of them to keep it in the bedroom. (Fiona is big on public displays of her amorous desires). While the youngest - I forget her name - is just happy to not be living in a shelter. BTW, in my town, she is the product of a drunken one-night-stand that Molly had with that Alvi sim. (The reason his wife bailed on him). Right now, she doesn't know who her dad is.
Tumblr media
Then I hopped next door and did a tiny make-over of Jaime's house. I basically tried to keep it as horrible as EA had designed it. I did get rid of their carport and made a new one - sort of an arbor thingie. Then - because the description says this is an Asian-Tudor mix, I added that new siding on the gables after re-doing the roof a tad. I also got rid of that extra front door and replaced all the windows and doors using B5Studios' Grant Park set.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Inside, I left all the wall finishes the way they were. Except for the bathroom. That one I changed. Anyway, I made the kitchen a bit bigger since that front door was deleted, freeing up space. Then I added those Grant Park screens in the dining area. I basically reused her furniture, although here and there I made a few changes. I did get rid of that spare bedroom, making it into an office, since all the doctors I work with, always take their work home with them. I also put up those posters by @kimmiessimmies, because Jaime has a major crush on the lead singer. And she is absolutely sure that if he ever met her, he'd dump that Sadie sim for her - because she is just that BEAUTIFUL!!!! And don't you forget it! Well, you can't because she reminds everyone she meets that she's beautiful and smart! But apparently not smart enough, because she got demoted at work when she bragged about her latest conquest - Thornton Wolff. (Seems her boss, Geoffrey Landgraab - a good friend of Morgana's - was not pleased.)
Tumblr media
And here the little tart is! Basically, all I did was change her skin and hair and toned down her make-up. I did give her some new clothes, but some I kept because I don't like having a whole neighborhood of models walking around. And this outfit wasn't that ghastly.
BTW, she's set her sights on a new gene therapist who was recently added to the hospital staff. His family lives in a new house next door to the Keatons. But since he comes from a traditional Chinese family, his parents are having none of it. Like Yumi Sekemoto, they are looking for a nice Asian girl to marry their son to. So, that lets out Ms. Jaime and her BF Pauline Wan. They're on the fence about Tori whatshername.
