I Was Talking To Max About How My Hometown In NC Has Changed Since He’s Been Gone And He Pointed Out

i was talking to max about how my hometown in NC has changed since he’s been gone and he pointed out that our town is quickly becoming a wtnv situation. for instance: 

apparently our high school, which is 96 years old and looks like a 16th century gothic castle (complete with lion gargoyles), has a fourth floor that no one really knew about until this year. no one knows how long it’s been in the building but from pictures it looks completely different than the rest and has a strange metal staircase in a spiral pattern. 

there is also a basement in the high school with a swimming pool but no one is allowed down there and it is starting to rot the first floor.

for a good while there was a nice elderly black man that would stand outside of random stores and street corners and dance to make people smile. however, in the past few months he has disappeared and is nowhere to be found.

we have a kapstone paper mill in our town and it is regularly normal but some days the smell is absolutely overwhelming and blankets the town like a thick fog.

the abandoned movie theater is blocked off to the public but i was talking to some girls from school about it who occasionally break in to chill what it is like on the inside, and they said that there is a giant, bottomless hole in the entrance’s floor so they have to tiptoe across a single plank of wood to get to the other side. 

fairly popular places in town will close down for literally no reason. 

one time a tornado came through our town and it destroyed the sonic drive-in and a car dealership next to it but no debris could be found. only the empty lots were there. they rebuilt the sonic in less than a month but the car rental lot was kept empty and now bored teenagers harp around it like vultures.

one time my grandmother saw an unidentified animal in our backyard. she thought it was a fox but when my dog barked at it, it stood up on its back legs and ran away.

fox and coyote sightings are becoming strangely frequent in one single area of town and no one knows why???? its like they all congregate near a horse stable by an old junkyard my cousin used to work at.

whenever a dog runs away from home they all end up coming to my house. every dog that gets loose.

my grandmother saw an unidentified bird in a tree and i still can’t figure out what kind it was based on her description. 

sometimes you can hear random gunshots and loud, unknown bestial screams in the uptown areas

there’s probably more but i don’t really get out much. these are just things that i’ve witnessed myself or is common knowledge in town.

Freshly adopted Jason, who is so used to taking care of his mother that the first morning in the manor, he wakes up in early hours to cook for Bruce, too.

Logically speaking, he understands that Bruce doesn't need it — he is a healthy adult, and they have Alfred — but it is six in the morning, and his mind is foggy, so he just follows his instincts. Maybe he does not even realise that mom is not here, after all.

Alfred finds him in the weakly dimmed kitchen when he finishes his walk around the Manor before starting with his chores. He is amused at first, stopping quietly behind the child. He is doing great (that's a surprise since Dick intentionally just stirred more trouble), and Alfred can't help but smile a little.

'Good morning, master Jason. If you are hungry, you should wake me up the next time. I promise to take care of you.'

Jason blinks owlishly, still awfully sleepy. His eyes are barely opened, his hands working on the automat.

'Breakfast,' he mumbles, frowning a little. 'For mom- I mean, for dad.'

Alfred's smile falters. His original impression shifts in a late realisation.

Oh.

'Master Jason, you shouldn't really-'

'Finished,' he yawns, putting a one — just one, nothing for himself at all — plate in front of Alfred.

It is a very simple dish, scrambled eggs with some black paper and toasted bread — but not even made in a toaster, just on the pan; this kid probably doesn't know how to use toasters. It smells nice, Alfred compliments mentally.

'Can you-' He yawns. 'Pass to-'

And then little Jason falls asleep helplessly, falling right in Alfred's arms. He catches him, of course. This boy weighs nothing at all.

'Hey, Al,' Bruce sticks his head in the kitchen, no less sleepy. 'What is going on?'

Alfred explains to Bruce what happened, and he is no less distraught. He helps him to put Jason in the bed and eats all the breakfast he prepared, with a mixture of delight and despair.

And when Jason wakes up, embarrassed by the faint memories of the early morning, Alfred puts a big plate in front of him, filled with so much food that his big blue eyes light up instantly.

'Bon appetite, master Jason,' he smiles. 'Your cooking had passed my personal standards for a cook. You are a good soldier.'

Jason giggles, his mouth already stuffed with bacon.

'That I am.'

And that he always will be.

Any drunk head cannons for Mabel, Pacifica, dipper and wirt? Can wirt even get drunk?

Yes of course.

Mabel is the kind of drunk that sings at the top of her lungs on top of the table while everyone else cheers… which tbh is not that different from the normal Mabel behaviour so is kind of hard to figure out if she is drunk or just excited.

Pacifica is the cheerful drunk, the one making jokes and also she gets touchy with Mabel, sitting on her lap, giving her smooches on the cheek, hugging her, you know, everything she would never do had she been sobber.

We know how Dipper gets like when drunk, he goes into detailed explanations about paranormal stuff, and recently about his demon boyfriend that does not act as a demon but that doesn’t mean anyone is allowed to make fun of him or Dipper is getting his great uncle Ford’s crossbow to teach them a lesson.

Wirt can get drunk but he can only do so on certain liquors, aka either Elves’  special liquors that they refuse to share unless they get a good deal, or whatever the heck Mabel makes each time they forget to keep her away from the bar when they are drinking together.

Mabel might have lost the recipe for the Mabel Juice but she is quite good at making stuff to affect even a demon.

AAAAAAASAIDHS THIS IS SO SADDD

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Hunter X Hunter Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Gon Freecs/Killua Zoldyck, Gon Freecs & Killua Zoldyck Characters: Gon Freecs, Killua Zoldyck Additional Tags: Child Abuse, Past Child Abuse, Hurt/Comfort, Past Torture Summary:

Set post S1 E25, just after the Zoldyck family arc. Little bit of head canon filler/ fix it fic. Canon compliant violence and discussion of abuse.

‘Killua hisses as he passes over a particularly deep lash, its edges are frayed and it cannot have been made by a regular whip. Gon’s fist clenches around the cloth, and warm water runs out between his fingers. He’s heard of such things in dark corners from cruel people, but never seen them. His next word breaks in two and he sounds far more like the child both of them are supposed to be than either of them ever do.

“Why?” ’

Killua and Gon discuss what happened to him at the Zoldyck mansion.

Kite as a Narrative Foil to Killua

Goddamn I love writing meta so here’s some more meta. A huge thank you to @owlphallacies for helping me revise this monster!

In this I’m going to be talking about something that’s been percolating in my brain for a long time: the relationship that Kite and Killua have to each other as characters. Specifically, that Kite is likely to be a narrative foil to Killua. A narrative foil is a literary device that contrasts two things (plots, settings, characters, etc) by either setting them up as ‘completely different’ or ‘extremely similar except for one key difference’. This example would be the latter, definitely, and as a matching set Ging is certainly a foil to Gon (there’s a lot to say there, but this is already a 20 page Word doc so  >.>  I’ll just touch on it at times).

It’s not unreasonable for Kite and Ging to be a ‘previous generation’ version of Killua and Gon given how that’s a common thing in shonen manga—One Piece, for example, is rife with characters inheriting the unfulfilled dreams of their mentors. It’s a good way to establish character motivation, in that case, but in this one would more of a catalyst for character development than protagonist-vs-antagonist plot events.

tl; dr: In all likelihood Kite acts as a narrative foil to Killua through his relationship to Ging, which is similar to Killua and Gon’s except that the power imbalance is more exaggerated. On the more theoretical side, I predict that what prompts Gon and Killua to truly air out their respective issues and begin working to improve their relationship will be the dramatic destruction of Kite and Ging’s, proving the consequences of allowing such issues to fester over time.

i live for ur demonbae hcs. got anymore? even ones pertaining to mabel or greg

I was talking about this today with @that-one-girl-behind-you

Wirt is not immortal, not as he is right now. He doesn’t know it yet but he will get to live a normal (or as normal it can be when you are an all powerful demon) life. He will grow old and such. The difference is that when he dies he will go straight back to the Unknown to take over as the Beast.

He will wake up to a smiling Beatrice, who after helping him up will slap him for leaving her all the work with taking care of the souls and the dark lantern. Then she will hug him because deep down he had always been afraid she would never get to see him again.

It’s a bit surprising to see himself young again, and to realize how the antlers that had before been present only on his shadow are now really on his head.

But all of it is nothing compared to seeing the young man waiting next to the trees, a smile on his face, and looking as young as he does.

Wirt will break down in ugly tar like tears because it has been 5 years since Dipper died, 5 years he had lived with the fear that he would never see him again, and now he’s here, and they have all of eternity together.

Mabel will join them years later, not because she is a lost soul, but because she sold her soul to Wirt in exchange of  never getting a heatstroke while wearing her sweaters. Best deal ever.

Just Kiss Already

For fonbella cos I feel u, friend

Fandom: HxH

Pairing: Killugon

This was getting exhausting. If they didn’t do something soon, he was going to crack their skulls together and forcibly shake their brains into self awareness. The fact that he might not physically be able to catch both Gon and Killua, let alone make them aware of that which was so painfully obvious to everybody else, was only adding to Kurapika’s frustration.

Leorio found the whole thing hilarious.
