Caretaker Lines!!

✮ "Stop trying to act tough. You're shaking."

✮ "When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

✮ "Hold still--I know it stings, but I have to do this."

✮ "You scared me half to death, you know that?"

✮ "I've got you. You don't have to hold yourself up anymore."

✮ "Just breathe. In and out. I'm right here."

✮ "You're going to need stitches and I swear, if you say you're fine one more time--"

✮ "Don't argue with me right now. Just let me help you."

✮ "I'm not going anywhere, so stop telling me to leave."

✮ "Can you squeeze my hand? I need to know you can hear me."

✮ "You're running a fever on top of everything else. Of course you are."

✮ "I found you on the floor. Do you understand how terrifying that was?"

oh my god this moment is everything.

This is the very first time he's seen this side of Yor. She reminds him of himself and his fellow spies, people who have faced the reality of death and gotten used to it. To some extent, this entire country has, since the war wasn't so long ago, but they're different. I wonder how he tries to fit this in with his perception of Yor as a normal civilian.

If you're writing anything involving cons, scams, heists, or morally questionable characters who are very good at lying, here are some free resources I've been using for research. Saving you the "why is this in my search history" anxiety.

1. The FBI's Famous Cases & Criminals archive (fbi.gov/history/famous-cases) has detailed breakdowns of real fraud cases, Ponzi schemes, and confidence operations. The language they use is clinical and precise, which is perfect for getting the procedural details right.

2. The FTC Consumer Sentinel Network publishes annual reports on the most common fraud tactics in the US. Great for understanding how modern scams actually work and what makes people fall for them.

3. The Smithsonian's American Art Museum has a free digital collection of forgery case studies. If your character forges documents or art, this is gold.

4. Court Listener (courtlistener.com) is a free legal database where you can read actual court transcripts from fraud trials. Want to know how a real con artist talks under oath? This is where you find out.

5. The Internet Archive's collection of old newspaper crime sections. Search for "confidence man" or "swindle" in papers from the 1920s through 1960s and you'll find incredible real stories that would feel too dramatic for fiction.

Bonus: The Psychology of Fraud section on the Association for Psychological Science website has accessible articles about why people trust, how deception works cognitively, and what makes someone a convincing liar. Essential reading if you want your con artist characters to feel psychologically real.

Reblog to save for later. Your WIP will thank you.

I once saw this idea of yuri and yor's coworkers were thinking that yor was a stripper/sex-worker.

And what if loid would think that too?

He sees her, coming back late from work, really late, after her normal job ended like 4 hours before. He sees her bruised, with bandages and shes trying to hide them. He did research and he findes out what everyone else thinks yor other job is.

So after one mission, yor comes back late. Shes very quiet, trying not to wake anybody up.

Then Loid turns the lights on.

"Goodnight Yor."

"L-Loid-san!? What are you doing up this late!?"

"Yor...do you think im poor?" Asked while getting closer to his wife.

"W-what? Of course not!"

"I feel like you dont trust that im completly serious about taking care about you and Anya. Full care. You dont have to sell yourself anymore yor, I promise i will take care of you." He hugged her.

Yor melted a little in his arms, but she needed to explain yourself.

"Loid im not selling myself! And I know that you take care of me and anya!"

"What? Then what are you doing after work?"

Yor blushed.

"Im learning how to Cook." She muttered.

"You, what?"

"Im learning how to Cook okey!?"

Loid looked at her and started laughting.

God, he loved this woman.

“Loid” is healing

A sign of it is dreaming about the past that was forgotten. I know this is a storytelling tool, but this is actually how it happens irl too. It means your subconscious is ready to process what was suppressed.

This happens when the body feels safe enough to begin healing.

So why now?…

Because of Yor and Anya. In this case, they’re next to him after he wakes up from a nightmare, symbolically and literally creating a sense of safety, a safe space. He feels safe with them in “Loid’s house.” Even if he doesn’t realize it, his body does.

This is also why he collapses when he returns home and sees Yor.

And Anya gives him comfort with a headpat (physical affection) when he wakes up from the nightmare. Real comfort, telling him that he has nothing to be afraid of. He’s safe.

His heart, his home, his safe space, held by two people.

It’s beautiful <3

Aru Shah headcannons for general use:

Aiden trying to take pictures during a storm, Aru comes in, points the camera, and tells him when for a perfect picture of the lightning or just perfect lighting

Aru will sometimes hold grudges and arguments in just to use them during a storm so that she can win. She can't help that there tends to be aggressive thunder after she's made her point that shuts everyone else up. She deserves to be petty. Bonus points if aiden/rudy/brynne brings it up to the potatoes like a conspiracy theory when aru suddenly seems too forgiving. Omg Aru getting caught on the weather app preplanning her meltdowns. think about it

Aru and Aiden need to recreate the Spiderman kiss scene at their wedding. Aiden Acharya, do it I dare you.
