You're a Demon Hunter. A rather good one. Unfortunately, a demon has possessed your husband's body. You know it's your duty to kill the demon and free him. But he's way sweeter and kinder than your annoying pos of a husband. He loves cooking and he actually likes your hobbies. Don't fall in love!

Rat detected. Make him jiggle.

[mutipede]

Holy shit I assume everyone is doing an up and down jiggle and maybe a side to side jiggle but if you jiggle your phone forward and backwards he jiggles in and out, too

The heroes defeat the villain as always, and the villain promises to come back in 100 years to break all they've built. The 100th year arrives, and they awake to a fascist regime led by the heroes who defeated them.

Believe it or not, in 1976 Raymond Howe released a children’s book series about the adventures of Hannibal the Hamster. That’s right. Hannibal. Except this one is a small, soft ball of fluff whose greatest crime is probably stealing sunflower seeds. Wild.

@hanniballecterscock Decided to take this to its logical fannibal conclusion because why not lol

A villain finds cover as a substitute teacher. They’re… surprisingly good at it, even if their teaching methods are bit odd.

In one of my film classes last semester we had to tell a story in 3 pictures for a mini assignment so my friend and I did this

Tips for Writing Injuries

✧ Broken ribs suck. You don’t just “walk it off.” Breathing hurts. Laughing hurts. Existing hurts. Characters with rib injuries won’t be doing heroic sprints.

✧ Concussions aren’t instant naps. Dazed vision, nausea, dizziness, maybe even personality changes, but they’re not going to collapse neatly like in the movies.

✧ Blood loss is sneaky. It’s not just about dramatic pools of blood. It’s dizziness, confusion, and the body getting cold as circulation tanks.

✧ Adrenaline lies. Someone can take a serious injury and not feel it until the fight’s over. That “I didn’t realize I was bleeding until later” trope? Very real.

✧ Twisted ankles are brutal. One bad step and suddenly running is off the table. Even walking hurts like hell. Perfect way to ground a chase scene.

✧ Burns linger. Even small burns hurt more than most people expect. Blisters, infection risk, constant pain, it’s not just a cool scar later.

✧ Dislocated shoulders = useless arm. Characters can’t keep swinging a sword or firing a gun. They’re basically fighting one-armed until it’s fixed.

✧ Shock is a thing. Pale skin, trembling, rapid heartbeat, and eventually disorientation. A character might not even realize how bad their wound is.

✧ Stitches aren’t magic. Getting sewn up is painful and recovery takes time. They’re not instantly battle-ready after a needle and thread.

✧ Scars tell stories. Some fade, some don’t. Some stay sensitive forever. Don’t forget the aftermath when the wound becomes part of the character.

"I asked chatgpt" oh ok, well I asked Hannibal Lecter and he wants to know if you have a business card.

[creativepromptsforwriting]

make 'em swoon

eyes meeting from across the room

reaching out, grabbing their hand

a subtle wink

licking their lips

a hug that gets deeper

"hi" *raspy voice*

falling asleep on each other

coming back for another kiss

pressing their foreheads together

smile that makes their eyes soften

brushing away their hair

putting their hand on the other's neck

holding them close by their hips

pulling them on their lap

smirking in a way that suggests more

drawing with their fingertips on their skin

hugging them from behind

a kiss pressed to the neck

lips brushing against their ear

whispering to them like they're alone in the world

alternatively add "ko" or "aking" to turn it into "my love" (e.g. mahal ko, sinta ko; aking mahal, aking sinta) with "aking" being used more often when talking about the one you love to a 3rd party;

or turn it into a verb (e.g. aking minamahal, kasintahan) to make it "lover"

Palangga/pangga/langga or "ga" for short and sometimes pagingging (ilonggo) (love) (can also be used platonically or between family members)

Kalasahan (tausug) (beloved) (this is pronounced with an emphasis in the SA syllable (as in kalaSAhan) instead of the LA like in the tagalog word LAsa (which means taste)

Ψυχή μου (my soul) (mostly romantic but can be used by a parent to their kid)

Swedish

Sötnos (cute nose)

Älskling (darling)

Let me know more terms of endearment in your languages! And please correct me if I'm wrong somewhere.

Please note that they are not all romantic. You can ask in the replies, so a native speaker can answer if it's appropiate for the type of relationship you want your characters to have.

Hannibal (2013-2015)

1x07 || 2x03 || 3x13

[sadbisexualmusic]

So maybe I’m talking out my ass about a show that has been off the air for decades but I noticed a cool detail in the Wire (major spoilers ahead)

So in Season 1, D’Angelo teaches Wallace and Bodie (and Poot? I think he’s there but I can’t remember) how to play chess, and he explains how the game works by comparing it to the drug trade, with Avon as the king, Stringer as the Queen, the stash as the Rook and kids like Wallace and Bodie as pawns. Bodie especially gets fixated on the pawns, clearly seeing himself in it and trying to ask how the pawn (he) can win the game. They also specifically mention how pawns kill, which is diagonally, and that pawns get taken out early.

Later in the season, when Poot and Bodie kill Wallace, they have him cornered, and they are in the opposite corner of the room, diagonally across from him. The way the scene is shot also emphasizes the diagonal line of the shots that kill Wallace, a visual reminder that these kids killed their friend because they’re pawns in someone else’s game.

I don’t know if this is a commonly discussed thing or I’m reading too much into it, but I thought this was a neat detail.
