Gun i came to tumblr to freak about your vampire hector fic that I need more of (take your time obviously lmfao, do not sacrifice the quality for more chapters !!!)
But I adore the casual world building in it, off mentions of the blood buddy program, how feeding and the human and vampire relationship sort of works? Even dietary restrictions for some, love it love it :3
djdhdb thank you so much!!! I'm having a lot kf fun with it. I'm honestly not confident writing slice of life stuff like this but its so fun.
I love vampire stuff but it can be so edgy sometimes I really wanted to write something light and fluffy
I'm more than happy to yap about it, the story and world aren't fully planned out yet but im getting there lol
H5nk, who's had a crush on the other Hanks for the longest time but doesn't know how to approach them about it.
They do things that could be seen as romantic, they're very comfortable with physical contact, cuddling up together to watch movies and kissing each other goodnight.
But they're just friends.. right?
Friends who have been together though thick and thin, through the highest highs and lowest lows. Friends H5nk can't help but stare longingly at when he thinks no one is looking.
His feelings are intense, but he keeps them at bay. No matter how hard he tries, he can't gauge how the other Hanks feel. He doesn't want to make things weird, he doesn't want to lose them. He grows content with these feelings weighing heavy in his chest. He can deal with it, for the sake of protecting his friendships.
Until you come into the picture.
The human, who so quickly earned a special place in all of their hearts. He loves you, the others love you too, but even then H5nk finds himself longing for his bros, craving the affection he shares with you with them too.
He finds himself a little jealous of his own partner, watching how easily you show your love for them, unafraid to ruin everything like he was.
One day it becomes too much, the well finally overflows.
You're all hanging out together, it's been a few months since realization, a few months since you've established your lives together. You'd think six people living in a one-bedroom house would cause some problems, and it definitely did, but you made it work, better then most others could.
You were sat on the couch, H4nk on the floor, between your spread legs, head resting between your thighs. H1nk sat on one side, an arm wrapped around your waist, his head on your shoulder. H2nk laid next to him, legs curled close and head resting on H1nks lap.
H3nk was on your other side, one arm around your shoulders and the other around H5nks. You were watching a movie, a cheesy rom-com, not the type of movie they typically liked to watch, but one of the other objects you realized was playing a staring role, you wanted to support them.
As they watched, H5nk couldn't get his mind right. He was hyper aware of how H3nks arm felt draped over his shoulders, the feeling of his warm skin on H5nk even warmer neck.
H3nk was wearing a tank top, his strong arms on display. H5nk could hardly concentrate, his gaze drifting back to H3nk over and over again. He felt like he was going to die. His heart was beating so fast, his mind racing. He bit his lip, watching as the two main characters finally expressed their feelings for each other. Intense romantic music played as they kissed, and H5nk looked over at H3nk once again.
This time, H3nk was already looking back at him. H5nk tensed, H3nk smirked, leaning in closer. "Need something?" His voice was quiet, low and sexy, eyeing H5nk with his usual suggestive stare.
"You."
They both paused, H5nks eyes widened as he realized what he had just said, "I mean- that's- I just-" He stammered, trying to find an excuse, a reason to justify having said what he said.
But he didn't need to, he couldn't, not when he suddenly felt a pair of lips on his. His gaze focused on the redhead in front of him, eyes closed, his arm moving from his shoulder down to his waist, pulling him in closer.
H5nks eyes fluttered closed as he kissed him back, pressing his body closer to H3nk.
When they separated no words were said. H3nk squeezed H5nks waist, leaning his head onto H5nk shoulder, his attention focusing back on the movie.
H5nk was in shock, his mouth hanging slightly agape, looking down at the man resting on his shoulder. A smile pulled at his lips and he wrapped his arm around H3nk, resting his head on top of his.
I am TRYING to write something for Curt & Rod for kinktober but I am horribly distracted by Curt's realized clothes.
Like all is well and good but that stupid fucking sleeveless turtleneck is pissing me off. It's a turtleneck but it has an open front and also has those fuck ass straps across the top. Just take it off oh my god please I hate it it's so distracting and it covers nothing, strip. now!
Now that I'm working on a longfic I'm realizing how fast of a writer I actually am. Like once I have an idea for something, I can just write and its wonderful. Then I finish the chapter and have to blankly stare at the screen and daydream until the next idea happens.
I used to think I was a really slow writer, but really it was just the lack on ideas and inspiration. I am hoping I don't run out of ideas so I can keep updating as frequently as I do.
I have a slight issue with the whole "Oh Eddie and Volt hate me because I respected Eddie's boundaries" thing
(OK I feel like I have to say absolutely respect people's boundaries irl. we are talking about fictional characters here)
The main thing is, you can't form a relationship of any kind with someone if you dont talk to them.
Eddie tells you to go away or leave him alone and you do that. What relationship could you possibly form from that?
Now I haven't played or watched through the hate route (because I feel bad about it) but I know that it involves not speaking to or helping Eddie when given the chance.
Eddie and Volts route is about accepting outside help.
On Eddie's part yes, but I think Volt is the one who really needs to learn to accept that help more so then Eddie.
When it comes to Eddie, Volt is protective. When you tell Volt that you're helping Eddie he reacts negatively. The reason for this, at least in my opinion, is because he wants to be the only one Eddie needs.
He was created to help Eddie and if he can't do that without help then what is the point of him being there? Why would he exsist at all?
Eddie is Volts top priority, not being able to help him the way the player could probably hurt. But he came to terms with it and allowed it to happen.
The Player sticking around Eddie and being insistent on helping Eddie proves to Volt that yes, they also really care about Eddie. It shows Volt that he can trust The Player with Eddie's wellbeing.
If The Player dosen’t stick around, dosent go out of their way to help Eddie, Volt would have no reason to trust them.
idk just my take on the hate ending for them from the small bits I have seen.
Playing Date Everything with a shit memory is so funny like
"omg I don't think I spoke to this object yet" only to be 2 conversations in and remember none of what was spoken
like I'm so sorry bbg I forgot you existed please remind me what happened in our last conversation
My first playthrough Diana threw me for a loop because I spoke to her once or twice the first week then never again until near the end of the game
I got distracted during the end of Barrys route and when I came back to him after running around with the Ceiling and Floor I completely blanked on what we talked about last time (still got his love ending tho <3)
In my second run for some reason I kept convincing myself I finished Barry when I hadn't even met him yet in the run. I was so confused as to who I could possibly be missing and when I checked the data-dex I through my game bugged because I so clearly remembered finishing his route
DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON TIMOTHY AND CHAIREMI
I had to pull up a guide and really focus because I kept forgetting to go talk to them and missed my window to do so
Timothy was easier then Chairemi for me, I kept forgetting what time I needed to talk to her. At least Timothy gave me an exact time
(Sorry for the long reblog this just made me think)
OK so I was gonna make a stupid joke but then I started actually thinking about it and there's so many fun possibilities I think I will explode if I don't type it out.
Quick spoiler warning for various stuff.
So.
The first person that came to mind was Shelly.
Here me out here
Her and Eddie are similar in a few ways, they're stressed, overworked and overwhelmed. Eddie had the faulty wire to real with, Shelly was mounted to the wall wrong. Are you seeing where I'm going with this?
Eddie is way better at hiding things (not from Volt but yk) then Shelly is. Volt exists to help Eddie, he's a natural caretaker and I can totally see him wanting to help Shelly out.
My second thought. Penelope.
The main reason being: She would fall in love with Volt immediately. I can totally picture the player trying to help Penelope get dates and introducing her to Volt. My girl would be a flustered MESS (not that I'm any better). I just thought it would be cute.
Last but not least, River.
Water conducts electricity, we all know that. I personally think it would be a very interesting thing to explore. Would touching Volt hurt River? Would it make her stronger, maybe feel more confident? I'm sure I could do some research and translate that into the context of them in a relationship, but i don't want to. So I won't.
Thinking about this now makes me wonder why River didn't show up during that one Arma event.

Hank 5 takes the spotlight this chapter!
I've decided to try my best to post every Thursday, I'll be sure to update here if I do fall behind though.
here is a little sneak peak into the chapter for anyone interested:
"Hey do you.. wanna maybe go for a walk? It really is beautiful tonight." The sky was clear, the moon was nearly full, illuminating the night in a soft glow, helped by the streetlights.
"So are you- I mean. Sure." He blushed, putting his hand over his face, "Sorry."
You smiled, "You don't have to apologize for complimenting me. Come on." You turned away from him and he pushed himself off the wall, walking at your side.
You walked side by side in a comfortable silence, you gazed up at the stars, admiring them. The silence was broken by H5nk, he cleared his throat, calling your attention to him.
I hope this is close to what you envisioned! I just started typing and this is the result lol
You and Kopi work together at her coffee shop and she kisses you (yippeeee)
ao3 link
(1,786 words)
When you walked into the coffee shop the first thing you smelled was freshly made espresso. The bell on the door rang, announcing your arrival, "You're here early." Kopi turned towards you, a warm smile gracing her features.
"So are you." You walked over to her, "Need a hand with anything?"
"Not right now, I actually wanted to surprise you with a special drink when you came in." She smiled at you nervously.
"Oh!" You smiled at her, "Well, how about I go hide out in the back and you can still surprise me?"
"Would you? I don't mean to chase you off but I've got some new ingredients I think you're going to love." She chuckled lightly.
"Of course, I'll be waiting." You nodded.
You put on your apron while you waited. You had started working for Kopi a few weeks ago and things have been amazing. It was just you and her, but you worked so well together she said you didn't need anyone else.
The work environment Kopi had created was perfect for you, you were never rushed, Kopi made it a point to tell you to take your time with things. You came from working at a chain coffee shop so you were still unlearning some bad habits.
The door to the break room opened and Kopi came in, holding two cups, "Alright, tell me what you think." She set one cup down and sat down beside you on the little couch. She held her cup in both hands, enjoying the warmth of the cup.
You picked up the cup and didn't hesitate to bring it to your lips. It smelled absolutely amazing, and when the liquid hit your tongue you couldn't help but hum in pleasure. "This is incredible Kopi." Your eyes shut and you relaxed into the couch, "This is exactly what I needed, you're the best."
Kopi giggled, "Oh stop. You really like it that much?"
"Like it? I love it, Kopi!" You opened your eyes, there was a fondness in your gaze. Kopi blushed.
"I'll have to add it to the menu, or maybe this can be a little something special, just for us?"
"Well.. I'd definitely be honored to enjoy this with you and you alone every morning. You have to teach me how to make it, so I can return the favor next time."
"Hm, I'll think about it. I almost want to keep the recipe to myself."
"Hey, you can't do this to me!" You whined.
You both laughed, "I'll teach you later, let me enjoy my little secret for a little longer."
"Okay, I'll be waiting."
You finished your coffee while talking and joking with Kopi. It was time to open the shop by the time you both finished.
"Look at the time! I'm so sorry Kopi, I got carried away!" You stood up but Kopi caught your wrist on your way to the door.
"Hang on, there's no rush, remember?" She smiled patiently at you.
"Oh, right." You took a deep breath, "Sorry."
"You don't need to apologize." She let go of your wrist, standing up beside you, "Let's clean up the cups then we'll open up shop." She was always so patient with you, it made your heart flutter.
You nodded, "Okay."
There were already a few people waiting outside by the time you actually opened, seeing them out there made you anxious. You bit your lip, looking at them then back to Kopi, who was still in absolutely no rush.
She just smiled at you, which helped calm you down some. You cleaned up the cups you used then made your way to the door, you flipped the sign as Kopi got things started.
The morning started off busy, as normal. You and Kopi spoke with customers while they waited for their coffee, you practically danced around each other behind the counter, working in perfect sync.
Until a larger rush of people came in. You got nervous and started to work faster, faster then you were comfortable with, but that's how you learned to make coffee, fast.
"About time." A rude customer snapped, snatching their drink from your hand. "Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting?" You felt yourself go tense.
"I-I'm terribly sorry about th-"
"Excuse me." You flinched, hearing Kopi's voice behind you. She walked in front of you, "I ask that you not talk to my employee like that. We don't rush here at Kopi's Koffee, if you want to be in and out I recommend somewhere else." She spoke politely and with a smile, but she was clearly irritated with the woman.
The woman shot a glare at Kopi, but turned and left with an annoyed huff.
"Hey, are you okay?" Kopi put her hand on your arm, the touch was comforting.
"Yeah, I'm okay." You nodded, taking a deep breath. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be, just slow down a little, okay?"
"Slow down?"
"You're stressing, do you need to take a little break?"
You bit your lip, looking unsure, "But you need me here-"
Kopi shook her head, "Go take five minutes. I'll be just fine."
"But-"
"I, your boss, am telling you to take a break. Just five minutes." She still looked at you with that patient smile.
You nodded, "Okay, thank you." You felt calmer already, knowing Kopi was genuine in her care for you.
You took a short five minute breather in the back and came out calmer and level headed. You got through the rush more easily after that, and the rest of the day ran much smoother.
When the shop was empty you let your shoulders relax. The middle of the day was always the least busy time, so you and Kopi got a bit of a breather.
"How'd you like me to teach you how to make that coffee now?" Kopi offered as she finished drying a cup you just cleaned.
"Really?" Your eyes lit up. "Yes!"
She chuckled, "Alright, let's start." She started going through the steps and you watched her carefully. That wonderful smell from before filled the space, you felt truly at peace here, making coffee with her.
"Okay, now you try."
"Okay.." You took her place, doing your best to follow her steps exactly. When you got to the art part your hands shook.
"Calm down, you're thinking too hard." Kopi stood behind you, her hands resting on your wrists, she was standing so close to you. Her head looked over your shoulder, almost touching you, "Relax, do it like this." She guided your hands but your attention was more focused on how she felt pressed up against you.
"Are you listening?" She laughed.
"S-sorry." You blushed.
"It's okay. Let's do it one more time." You did it again, Kopi guiding you carefully.
"I did it!" you cheered, looking at the finished drink.
"Good job! I knew you could, I'm proud of you." She took your hand in hers, running her thumb across your knuckles before letting your hand fall from her grasp.
"T-Thanks." You rubbed the back of your neck, trying to breath and calm the blush on your cheeks.
The bell rang, signaling a customer had come, so you both got back to work.
The rest of the day went smoothly, it didn't get as busy as it did in the mornings but by the time it was time to close you were both tired.
"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow." Kopi dismissed you.
"Actually, can I stay?" You asked, normally Kopi liked to handle the cleanup by herself after hours, but you wanted to stay and help.
"Are you sure you want to? It's not very fun work."
"I'm sure. What are we starting with?"
"Let me show you how to clean the espresso machine."
Kopi showed you step by step how to clean it, together you made quick work of cleaning behind the counter. Next was the rest of the shop, you began to sweep as Kopi stacked chairs onto tables.
"We make a good team, don't we?" Kopi commented as you finished up your sweeping.
"Yeah, we really do." You smiled at her, "Hey uh, I.. just want to thank you. For being so patient with me and helping me out so much. I really appreciate it."
"Oh? Then I want to thank you too!" She smiled back, "You're always such a big help, you always listen to me and.. I really enjoy your company."
"You do?" You blushed.
"Of course I do!" Kopi took your hand in hers, "I honestly can't imagine my mornings without you now." Her cheeks reddened.
"Me either, I love working here, working with you." You squeezed her hand, "Kopi I-" You bit your tongue, stopping yourself from speaking. You took a deep breath, "-I am really grateful to you. I can't imagine working anywhere else or with anyone else. You make work.. not feel like work." You confessed
"You really mean that?" Kopi slowly and softly intertwined your fingers.
"Yeah, I do, Kopi." You moved a little closer and so did she.
You found yourselves gravitating towards each other, Kopi's lips parted, her eyes fluttering shut. Your eyes widened, your face felt hot, you took a moment to truly admire her face, she was beautiful. You let your eyes fall closed, but before you could close the distance, you hesitated.
Your shoulders tensed, your brain began to think a mile a minute. Then you felt soft lips on yours, your eyes shot open in surprise. Kopi had closed the gap, her free hand moving and resting on your shoulder.
Your eyes fell closed again, you cupped her cheek, kissing her back softly. Your name tumbled from her lips as she pulled away, she leaned her face into your hand.
"Kopi.." You took a deep breath then leaned in to kiss her. She kissed you back, both her arms coming up to wrap around your neck. You held her face in one hand, your other on the small of her back.
When you separated you rested your forehead against hers, you both smiled. "Dose.. does this mean you.. like me too?" You asked stupidly.
Kopi giggled, "How about I kiss you again and you tell me." Without hesitation she kissed you again and again and again. On your lips, your cheeks, forehead then back to your lips.
"Okay! I get it! Okay!" You laughed, grabbing her face in both your hands to stop her. "Kopi I.. I love you."
"I love you too."
You both stood there, holding each other, more than content to stand there in each other's arms. It felt so right, it felt like this is where you were meant to be.
Wrote another Kopi oneshot because she deserves it
ao3 link
Every morning Kopi writes a fun fact on your to-go cup, every morning you keep it.
Today, you decided to make her a gift, to show just how much it means to you.
warning: I made an attempt at a Haiku, its not good.
1,387 words.
"Welcome to Kopi's Koffee, I'll be with you in a moment!" Kopi's familiar voice greeted you when you walked into her coffee shop. You waited at the counter patiently for her to finish putting together an order, when she saw you she smiled wider.
"Hello again, did you want your usual?" You had been getting your morning coffee from Kopi ever since she opened up shop here.
"You know me so well, yes please." You nodded.
"Coming right up." You paid and she got to work right away, taking her time as she always did. Her coffee always tasted better to you, maybe due to the love and care she poured into each cup. When she finished she grabbed a marker from her apron and wrote something on your paper cup before handing it to you.
Your fingers brushed as you took it from her, "I'll see you tomorrow." Her cheeks flushed.
"Yeah, have a good rest of your day, Kopi." You waved her goodbye and left her shop, reading what she had written.
"Did you know.." Every time you got coffee from her she'd write a little coffee related fun fact for you, always beginning the same way. ".. bee's like coffee? The nectar from coffee flowers have caffeine in them that bees are attracted to." The fact was accompanied by a little drawing of a bee.
Your smile grew as you took your first sip from the cup. You made your way home, you weren't working today. Even on your days off you bought coffee from her, you used to only make coffee at home, but after going to Kopi's for the first time you were hooked.
Partly because you loved her coffee, partly because seeing her brightened your morning. She was really sweet, always friendly and when she wasn't busy you'd stay and talk with her as you drank your coffee.
You had grown to really like her, you could only hope she enjoyed your company as much as you enjoyed hers.
You finished your coffee on your walk back to your house, heading into your kitchen and rinsing out the cup. You brought the clean and dried cup to your office and carefully cut out the fun fact. You turned it around to the blank side and wrote down the date, then began to write.
The first time you went to Kopi's Koffee you were stuck in a major creative block, but when you read the little fact she wrote on your cup it gave you a little burst of inspiration. Ever since then you always cut out the fun facts she wrote, and used it as a sort of prompt to draw or write.
"Little bee so sweet
To the caffeine flower he
sips it so sweetly"
"Good enough." You muttered to yourself, Haiku's weren't your strong suit, but you felt like trying to write one today. You opened a new tab on your computer, searching up pictures of a coffee flower. You began to sketch the flower, adding a fuzzy looking bee, resting on the petals.
You smiled at your work, this was your daily creative warmup, it helped get things flowing, most of the time. You opened a drawer and pulled out an envelope, it was filled to the brim with previous coffee cup clippings. You fit the newest one inside, the envelope was clearly overstuffed, you'd need a new one soon.
You counted the paper, "Has it been a month already?" You pulled them out of the envelope, they weren't a uniform shape, some were squared, some round, some bigger than others.
You began to sort them, each one you had written the date you received them. Looking back at each one an idea implanted itself in your brain. You began working right away.
Kopi hadn't seen you at all today. You didn't come in during the morning rush, nor during lunchtime or even in the afternoon. Kopi was ready to close up shop now but she hesitated today. She began cleaning up, but she didn't turn the open sign to closed, not yet.
She had her back turned to the door, starting to sweep the floors after stacking all the chairs up onto the tables. When the bell on the door rang she stopped, she turned around and when her eyes landed on you her smile lit up the room.
"I hope I'm not too late." You were a little surprised by how happy she was to see you.
She set the broom aside and crossed the shop to greet you, "Not at all! I was wondering when you were going to show up."
"Yeah, sorry about that. I was going to stop in earlier but I just got a little distracted." You rubbed the back of your neck, in your other hand you held a really small gift bag. Kopi looked at it, but didn't ask about it.
"Well, can I get you your usual?"
"Only if it's not too much trouble."
"I haven't cleaned out the machine yet, I'll get that started for you. So what's kept you so busy all day?" She asked as she began making your drink.
"Well.. I've been working on a little project. The idea just came to me yesterday after I got my morning coffee and I finally finished it."
"Really? What kind of project if you don't mind me asking?" She turned back to you.
You placed the gift bag on the counter, "Oh just a little gift for you." Your cheeks flushed, your eyes looking away from her.
"For me?" Her eyes widened a little, "You shouldn't have!" Her smile made all your anxieties melt away.
"I wanted to."
She stepped away from what she was doing, standing in front of you now, "Can I?"
"Of course!"
She reached into the small bag, and pulled out what you had made. A booklet made of the fun facts you had cut out of your to-go cups, bound together with brown twine.
"This is.." She opened it, finding your first drawling, she flipped through the pages slowly. You had decorated your additions, adding color to your sketches.
"Your fun facts actually really helped me stay inspired. I really look forward to it every day, every morning I draw or write something new because of it. I thought this would be a.. nice way to say thank you." You rambled, worried she wouldn't like it.
"This is.. beautiful." She met your gaze, appreciation and awe clear in her gaze, "I really inspire you this much?"
"Of course you do. Seeing you- I mean, you know, coming here every morning is the highlight of my day. I wanted to show you how much it actually means to me that you take the time to write these on my cup."
"You know.. I only write them for you." She blushed, turning her eyes back to the booklet.
"Really?" Her admission surprised you, you thought she did this for all the to-go orders.
"Yeah, to be honest, I don't know why I started. But you looked so happy the first time I did it I.. wanted to keep doing it."
A warm feeling settled in your chest, "I'm glad you did."
"Me too.." A comfortable silence overtook you both, Kopi slid the booklet into her apron pocket, it fit nicely, then turned to finish your coffee.
She looked at you as she grabbed a marker, you shared a smile before she began to write. She set the cup down in front of you, the writing facing away from you. "Will I see you tomorrow?"
"Bright and early. I promise."
"I can't wait." She pushed the cup towards you and you picked it up.
Written on the cup was a phone number, "Call me :)" written just underneath. Your heart skipped a beat, you looked back at her, eyes wide. You nodded, "I'll talk to you later."
You left her shop, feeling lighter than air. The entire way home, you couldn't stop smiling. Again you finished your drink on the way home, rinsing out the cup and drying it. You cut out the number and set it down on your desk, you pulled out your phone and dialed it.
