Um, if you don't mind me asking, why's the option to ask anonymously in your asks gone?
I kept getting a bunch of spam, so I need to know who to block.
I welcome legitimate asks, and if it’s in another language, I will translate it to the best of my abilities. Same with dyslexia, I’ll try to figure out what you were trying to type
But I’m not answering run-on sentence stuff that completely lose the point after ten words and I have to scroll ten times to get to the end of. I’ve tried putting those through ChatGPT to figure it out and even the damn robot needed a second
INCREDIBLY CONCERNING SPIKE IN ANTI-BLACKNESS IS HAPPENING RN.
Some of yall may have heard some of the shit that has been going on right now. I'm gonna give a quick run down of some of the stuff that has been happening. Note, this is not all, and it may never be all as much as I will try to update this.
(I am going to try and compile and briefly explain these as much as I can. There may be misinformation. Please inform me if I got something wrong.)
(This will also be updated with additional information and new topics added.)
1) Racist Chinese Dolls.
There are these dolls in China that are being called "Natasha" baby dolls. These dolls are not only very obvious caricatures of black people, but they are being advertised as a "stress relief" in which the people who buy these abuse it in various ways.
This links to a video of a compilation of the various "uses" of the doll. There are more in the replies of the tweet. (Another link to the same tweet just incase)
2) The Mocking, Abuse, and Dehumanization of Black Children.
Apart from the aforementioned doll, there are apparently people going around mocking, abusing, and dehumanizing black children.
Some people have compared black children to the doll.
Others have been going into African countries and have found ways to mock, abuse, and dehumanize black children for clout.
(Source 1 + Full Video) (Source 2)
There are more videos surfacing.
3) Black people are going missing.
Black people, especially children and teens have recently been going missing at an alarming rate. Some of these same people are turning up dead, deaths being ruled as "suicides."
While it generally unknown why many of these people are going missing, many suspect that their disappearances, deaths, and even lack of coverage is rooted in anti-blackness.
The following is a list of black people that have been reported missing as of recently. Please note that this is not a complete list (it may never be completed due to the fact that many of these disappearances will still occur as time passes) this may contain inaccurate information. Please inform me if that is the case.
By the time you see this, some of these people may have already been found either alive or deceased. This post will be updated overtime.
It is also heavily encouraged that you reblog this with more links to recent cases of missing black people if you are aware of any that aren’t included on this list.
First, I would like to wish a Happy Pride to all my followers (I am just an ally, at least currently, but I support you all!)
Decided to use this opportunity to finally reveal the sexualities and pronouns of the Haunted Class (... for now. Again, they always change depending on which plot I come up with).
I will keep updating this post as more ideas change or develop.
I'm honestly not sure about my gender. I enjoy she/her alot, but idk about any other pronouns. He and they don't work well for me, so I believe for right now, I'm cis-gender.
Thank you for standing by my family. I know I keep asking, but your support is what keeps us alive, especially after the recent bombing that injured us all. Our sole focus right now is saving my brother Samer. Securing his vital medications and evacuating him for treatment is our only hope. Please share our story and encourage others to donate @hazemsuhail
Since I have gone through all my lovely OCs, I’ll be switching to Black characters I love with all my heart and headcanon them all as neurospicy since Pride started with a queen known as William Dorsey Swann, the first confirmed drag queen
Wybie Lovat - President of Cat Ladies of America
He/They
Pansexual, Trans guy
Makes his cat little pride collars and lets him ride in the Bermuda Triangle known as his hair
Has the same jacket he usually wears but in trans flag colors
Rigged their motorbike to emit rainbow-colored glitter whenever they rode it
WORSHIPS Beyoncé
His grandma makes his carry a cattle prod in case of TERFs and crazy people involved with religion
He’s getting adopted by everyone he meets, most of them being the Dykes on Bikes
This kid fixed their leader’s motorcycle, so of course they love and wanna protect and adopt him
Also, people respect the hell out of his grandmother. Turns out, she sucker punched a bunch of homophobic protesters back in ‘85, gave queer kids a home at the Pink Palace on the condition they stay away from drugs, and many of those people still remember her
Surprisingly good at lip-syncing
Some say they saw who started the Glitter Wars. Wybie was too traumatized to speak
Virgil Hawkins - Static Pride
He/Him
Pansexual
Showed up as Static Shock just to get the crowd hyped while wearing a pansexual flag version of his coat
He gives kids rides on his disk
As Virgil, he’s casually flirting with everyone and shooting finger guns
He was able to convince Richie to come wearing his rainbow hoodie and made sure he wasn’t in any pictures so his dad wouldn’t see anything online
But he snagged a few Polaroids just for them
His dad and Sharon joined the ride in their Ally shirts. Robert got numbers from a few drag queens and he has no idea how to breathe now
No one can prove it, but Sharon may have been responsible for a protester’s car getting spray painted and then towed. Again, no one can prove it
But if you yell at her baby brother, she’s gonna get a little feral
He and the Bang Babies called for a month-long truce. Let the queers have a month with no metahuman-related chaos ruining their fun
They’re villains, but they’re not bad people
He swears he saw someone in red throw the first glitter bomb, igniting the Glitter War
Koki (Wild Kratts) - Women in STEM do NOT Support VoxTek
She/Her
Lesbian
Tricked out the Tortuga so it’d glow rainbow at night. Her team loves it
When the team went to save a pride of lions from poachers, she squealed when she saw two female lions curled up together with a cub between them
Her aunt who lives in New York tagged along with her and brought along her partner
Dyes her Afro lesbians flag colors
Martin is her most trusted himbo wingman, getting her numbers while wearing like fifty different pride pins because they're so colorful
She can do the splits in heels!
She once hacked into protesters' phones so all they showed were animal mating patterns for five hours straight
Gives kids rides on her hover bike
The kids love her, so the youth center asked her to teach a summer coding program
Legend has it, that if Koki sings a Beyoncé song, Sappho will appear from the rainbow mist
According to her, a fabulously dressed black teenager threw the first glitter bomb... That narrows it down
Tucker Foley - The Super Cool Sidekick
He/They
Polyromantic, Asexual, Demiboy
Wears nothing but cool asexual and demiboy gear for the entire month
Always posting selfies
Offers their expertise when it comes to tech during parades, handling, music, rigging drones to spray rainbow foam on protesters, etc.
Mostly hangs out with the gaymers and blerds
Those guys really know how to party
They cosplay for every event. Fan favorites are Cyborg, Alastor, and Rock Lock
He convinced Danny to call on some ghosts to mess with TERFs and homophobes
Those dumbasses never saw 'em coming
They even got Sam to call on some of her goth friends to scare those church weirdos off
They also use their PDA to mass-text mocking gifs to transphobes with the message, "Na-na-na-na-na! Your beliefs are stupid!"
He thinks one of the cosplayers is the one who started the Glitter Wars
Vince LaSelle - NBgAy
He/Him/Your Coolness
Gender-Nonconforming, Gay
Sashaying in high heels (It's canon, by the way. Vince CAN walk in heels)
Wears rainbow-colored sports jerseys
The sporty queers love him, especially the Softball Sapphics
Every time Vince sinks a basket like Michael Jordan, a trans boy gets his soup
He's got six inch heels and is not afraid to use them
That usually involves high-kicking a TERF
Teaches younger kids how to dribble and shoot
This got him a summer job at a summer camp for queer kids
This guy is surprisingly good at voguing
And shockingly, he’s the mom friend. He brings snack bags full of food he made, and now people are addicted to his cooking
The Gay Grillers welcome him to critique their cooking and fix what needs fixing. He’s critical, but fair
Protesters immediately shut up when they tasted the pie that was thrown at their faces
Along with the Ashleys, he makes sure Ashley B doesn’t go off the rails during her sugar high
Because he’s almost definitely sure Ashley B caused the Glitter Wars. She loves her sparkle
Ashley Boulet - Bad & Bougie
She/Her
Trans girl
When she told the other Ashleys she was a trans girl, that changed nothing. She’s a girl, she’s named Ashley, and she’s super stylish and gorgeous
But they do wear stylish trans flag pins on their purses in silent support
Her mean girl attitude is a shield she uses to insult others before they insult her… Or some therapy crap
Insults transphobes in French
Occasionally donates to trans rights fundraisers and makes anonymous donations to anyone in need of hormones
She is always dressed to the nines for pride parades, sparing no expense
She braids hair and does makeup for anyone who asks
Come to her if you want the hottest gossip
Do NOT let her have too much sugar. Ashleys A, Q, and T spent nearly an hour trying to find her after too much cotton candy
During one of her sugar highs, she thinks she may have seen a guy with a fade looking suspicious before the first glitter bomb was thrown
Elijah (Big Mouth) - And The Lord Said ‘Let there be Ace’
He/Him
Asexual
He was not expecting to meet so many other ace people at Pride
He met some other queer Christians and ended up with his face painted by a drag queen dressed as Whoopi Goldberg from Sister Act
Keeps it toned down in terms of his outfit, but he’s not afraid to go all out— mostly button-ups, suspenders, a bow tie
Of course, he got called “Urkel,” but he’s owning it
Does NOT care for the protesters screaming threats and slurs "in the name of Jesus"
Had some fun with the other queer Christians tagging their cars with rainbow stickers
He MAY have thrown a water balloon at some loud mouth pastor. No one can prove it. Only the Lord knows
Brings his aunt to every event and she goes all out ‘cause she got so much disposable income
This lady bet protesters they couldn’t do backflips and won some serious money
He got to lead a prayer circle with the other Queer Christians, asking for love, tolerance… And Dancing Queen on a loop
And no, he did not start the Glitter Wars! Don’t listen to a thing Ashley B is saying
Tucker seems very suspicious, and he did see someone in cosplay running
Penny Proud - She Was Born Loud & Proud
She/Her
Asexual
Slaying her Ace colors
Michael is her partner in crime during parades, making sure she looks absolutely stunning before leaving the house
Ace flag crop top, black ripped jeans, purple sneakers, stack bracelets, and some gorgeous silver hoops
She aso dyes her pigtails purple
Kareem’s there to cheer her on while wearing his Ally AF hoodie
He’s also intimidating protesters by looming over them if they try anything with her
But Penny’s also got his back
She once snatched some protester’s obvious wig when she tried flirting with Kareem since “his girlfriend obviously wasn’t going to satisfy him.” (Gross.)
And Kareem punched some creep in the balls when he said he could “fix” Penny’s asexuality (I don’t need to go further on what that freak meant)
She got invited to sing with some drag queens when they recognized her as a memeber of LPDZ
Turns out, her dad’s snacks make for excellent homophobe repellent
You just grab one, throw it at a protester, and they run away screaming
And that’s how Oscar made a fortune in June and rolled around in a pile of glitter-covered money
Penny’s almost certain she saw one of the Junkyard Gang running away from the scene of the crime after the first glitter bomb went off
She couldn’t see a thing past all the glitter
Michael Collins - He Was Born Louder & Prouder
He/Him
Gender-nonconforming, Gay
He’s the one that taught Penny how to Vogue, let’s get that straight
He’s got thirty one different wigs to wear all throughout June
Every time Michael does the splits, a trans girl gets her hair done all pretty
He refuses to let anyone attend a parade without a glow up. No one knows where he gets his accessories from or how he sews so fast
People BEG to be read by him
He makes it a goal to get selfies with every drag queen and king
Humiliated some homophobes during a one one three game of basketball and sent them home with a vicious read
Everyone loves Michael
He’s stated clearly he did not throw that glitter bomb
He loves a little sparkle, but not enough to cause a Glitter War and get that stuff everywhere
But if you ask him, he’ll say it wasn’t thrown… It fell from the sky
The Junkyard Gang - The Gang Knows Rudy and Albert Like Each Other
Albert: Pan He/Him
Rudy: Gay He/Him
Mushmouth: Ace, Demiboy He/They
Bill: Bi He/Him
Russell: Trans Dude He/Him
Old Weird Harold: AroAce Xe/Xir
Bucky: Omni They/Them
Dumb Donald: Pan, Nonbinary They/Them
Rudy was the last to come out amongst the gang but they ALL knew he was gay. That, or metrosexual… Nah, they knew he was gay
He always got super jealous when Albert would casually flirt with someone
Harold is the ultimate wingman and also the ultimate dad friend. He has baby leashes for everyone
Albert MAY have put a protester in a headlock when he put his hands in Rudy
Rudy's got strict parents (Old black money thinking they're better than other black people) so the gang has to sneak him out Rapunzel style... Which involves Rudy jumping out of the window into Albert's arms
They put on performances once in a while and get standing ovations
Mushmouth is pretty good at lip-syncing
Dumb Donald CANNOT tell when they're being flirted with
Legend has it, when they take off their hat, everyone gets a nosebleed because they're too gorgeous (The guy IS attractive under that beanie, though. Watch the movie)
Bucky is popular in cripple punk spaces (Bucky originally had spina bifida, but the writers got rid of that) and paints their crutches
Bill and Russel hang out with the other blerds and geek out over the Brown Hornet and Legal Eagle
The gang cheered the loudest when Albert and Rudy finally kissed
And no, they didn’t cause the Glitter Wars, either
Harold saw a guy with a fade looking suspicious earlier
Bucky saw someone in a “fresh pair of sneakers”
Albert thinks he may have seen someone in a superhero costume
Miles Morales - Your Friendly Neighborhood Queer
He/Him
Trans guy, Bi
Hangs out with Static Shock when they’re both in their gear, giving kids rides on Static’s disk and his webs
He figured out how to make his webs rainbow-colored and made an impressive mural
Just casually spray-painting TERFs cars with the colors of the trans flag and tagging protesters with stickers he made
As Miles… He’s doing about the same stuff
He can’t have too much sugar, either
Things get WEIRD
Did THE MEME with two other bi trans guys
His parents came along to show their support, and his mom was immediately loved by the drag queens for pulling off the splits
His dad felt a little out of place, but the energy kicked in when he got a few mojitos in
Hobi dropped in (so far, one of the cool ones of the Spider Society, Gwen’s still gotta earn back my trust after what she did) and pulled off some classic Black British anarchy
He smacked a protester on the arse with his guitar after the bastard tried to harass some young lesbian
Idiot didn’t see it coming
Hobi managed to convince Miles to have a little fun as Spider Man
So, they swung over the parade… And dropped a glitter bomb
It was Miles… He started the Glitter Wars
Things were getting too chummy around here
To this day, no one knows who threw the First Glitter Bomb and started the Glitter Wars
Howdy ho, y’all! Here’s what you’ve been waiting for, dropped at the witching hour of our last day! My big interview exclusive with the Myvan Variants of our many lovely AU’s! Sit down and relax while we get to know them a little better! @imsparky2002 @booksrbetterthanpeople @nerdy-chocomallow @thefcguy
AU’s Included: Class of Heroes//Class of Villainy//School for Monstrous Youths//Ghoul Squad//MiracOlympus//Arkham//Ravencroft//Akuma//Mythical Creatures//‘Canon’
Let’s get this thing started! Bring them in!
Q: How did you two meet?
QuasiIvan: Well, we met on the first day of school at Francoise Prep. It…wasn’t going very well for me at first, so I’d gone out to the woods to get some air and clear my head. But then…I heard this voice, singing. It was the most beautiful and angelic I’d ever heard, and I had to see who it was.
Snow Mylène: (Giggles) That was me! He gave me a bit of a start, because I hadn’t seen him sitting behind that tree, but mostly I was just happy to meet someone else who enjoyed spending time in the forest. And I could see right away that he was the sweetest, most gentle boy. He had such kind eyes and a tender smile, I couldn’t resist wanting to get to know him!
QuasiIvan: I…was mostly just surprised she was talking to me, that she didn’t run away screaming, like most people did. She…stayed. She made me feel happy and safe, for the first time around someone other than Esme. In that moment…I could already feel myself falling for her.
- - - -
Mylènsula: Oh, we actually met years before we were ever dragged to that wretched school, it’s quite a story! I was a young sea witch just discovering my affinity for magic and testing it on unfortunate victims, and he was just beginning his works as the most terrifying boogie who ever lived! I was fast asleep one night after a long day of tormenting mermaids, when the most frightful figure appeared in my dreams!
Ivan Oogie: She was the one’a the first folks I ever tried to give nightmares, and she had me doubtin’ my skills there for a second! No matter what I tried, I just couldn’ seem to spook her. So I kept tryin’, for years! But the more and more time I spent with her, the stronger her grip got on my heart. I didn’ really have my hopes up about ever gettin’ to meet the girl’a my nightmares in the flesh, but then, we got both got dragged to that reform program.
Mylènsula: It was as if fate itself intervened and declared we were meant to be together!
- - - -
Ivan Bumble: I met Flower when we both start DuPont. We were much smaller then. She was first person to say hello to me on first day, lots of others were…intimidated. Thought she was beautiful, and very nice. She made me feel…not as nervous about leaving mama, Sasha and mountains. I liked her very much.
MyLeaf: I’ll admit, it really surprised me that this big, strong yeti boy was so shy and gentle when I first met him. He came off as so grumpy and standoffish, but I could see underneath that he was just missing his home and family, like I was with my dad and my friends back home. So, I invited him to check out the greenhouse with me, and we got to talking. The spark between us was pretty immediate, I knew I was going to like him right away.
Ivan Bumble: I knew I like her too. She was best part of coming to new school, new place.
- - - -
Mylèntasma: Oh, I remember that day like it was just moments before now rather than years. I was about eight years old, out on a float around the city in the evening, taking in all the beautiful sights of Paris, when I heard quite a commotion coming from around the corner. Imagine my surprise when I turned that corner to see a giant gorilla, roaring at a group of boys who had a reputation for picking on younger children and those of different appearance.
Ivan Kong: It was my family’s first day in Paris and those guys had started messing with me and Nath. Eventually, I just got so mad that I couldn’t take it anymore, and I started to go Kong. Nath tried to get me to calm down, but I was just too pissed off. But then…I heard this beautiful voice, singing and telling me everything was going to be okay. That was when I met my beautiful phantom.
Mylèntasma: I could tell immediately from the way he was trying to protect his friend that he wasn’t some dangerous monster. I knew I had to do something to help. And when he turned from a giant ape to his equally adorable humanoid form…I knew I had made the right call.
- - - -
HephIvan: We met when we were very young, equivalent to around five years old by the standards of you humans. I was nervous because my mother was bringing me with her to Olympus for the first time. I knew that I looked…different and I didn’t think that the other deities my age were going to like me. I was sitting in the corner, tinkering with a toy I was making and waiting for my mom to finish up, when…Mylène came over.
Demelène: I had seen him sitting over there by himself, working on some kind of contraption that I had never seen before. He looked a bit nervous, and a bit lonely, so I decided to go over and introduce myself. I asked him what he was making, and while at first he was a bit hesitant, soon we got to talking. It didn’t take long for us to become friends, the tie of fate and all that.
HephIvan: After that, she started introducing me to everyone else, and I began to feel at home on Olympus…especially whenever she was around.
- - - -
Nightmare Weaver: We’d actually crossed paths a few times before got we dragged to DC Academy to take part in their “reform program” and I always thought he was hot but never had the guts to approach him. It wasn’t until we landed in the same class that we met properly. We ended up both partaking in a friendly sparring competition proposed by Kim. We got set against each other and I managed to get the drop on him with my fear gas.
Venom Bringer: Right away I was intrigued by her cunning, fearlessness and of course, her stunning beauty. I started trying to find whatever excuse I could to be around and talk to her before we would be dragged back to that wretched asylum at the end of the day. And the more we talked, the deeper I began to fall for her.
Nightmare Weaver: It was the same for me. He was everything I had been wanting in a partner, and we just needed the right time to make a move.
- - - -
Captain France: Well, since it was Mylène and her squad who found me in my frozen state, I guess she kind of felt obligated to help look after me, in a way. She would come visit me everyday and when I woke up, she would just sit and talk to me, seeing how I was feeling and telling me things I would need to know about the modern day. She really had no reason to care about me, this guy from decades ago she’d never met before, but…she kept coming anyway. How could I not fall for her?
Bullseye: I felt like I should at least try to make sure he was okay, being the one who found him down there and all. But when he came to and we started talking…he wasn’t at all like I was expecting. He was so…humble and sweet. And he would just make the dorkiest jokes with the cutest little smile, I couldn’t help but think he was adorable. It didn’t take me long to fall for him either.
Captain France: Everything was so new and scary to me, I had no idea what was going to happen to me or how people were going to react. But…I still felt like it was going to be alright…as long as she was there.
- - - -
Horrificator: We met about a week before we both started in the Advanced Villainy program. There I was, just wreaking havoc on a Friday afternoon, spreading terror in the hearts of those pathetic ‘good’ citizens, when crashing down the streets, tearing up everything in his path comes this huge, handsome hunk of stone. You could say I was enamored pretty quickly, I had to know more about him. So I crept up and did what I do best. I spooked him out of his wits! (Giggles)
Stoneheart: I’m just minding my own business, engaging in my specialty of property destruction, when I hear this ear-splitting shriek that scares the living hell out of me. So I turned around, ready to fight…and there she was. The most beautiful little horror I’d ever laid eyes on, smiling at me with those sharp teeth. All I could think was “I’m going to marry this girl.”
Horrificator: You have to admit, I got you good, my darling gem!
- - - -
Ogrevan: I remember that day like it was yesterday. I was about ten years old, out on my first ever shift guarding the village, so I was quite excited, getting to do adult things and such. That’s when I heard this beautiful voice ask me if I knew where the wild mountain thistle grows, and I looked and saw the most beautiful girl I’d ever laid eyes on in my life. I was so captivated by her that I couldn’t form a legible sentence. Thankfully, she laughed it off and just sprinted by me to go find it herself. When I was finally able to catch up to her, I was able to speak.
Drylène: He was so adorable, back then, and even more so now. I couldn’t help teasing him a bit. After that we introduced ourselves and got to talking, and before I knew it, I was finding any excuse to come by the mountainside, just to see and talk to him.
Ogrevan: It always made my day when she would come. I could feel myself falling deeper for her with every time. Even if it did tend to distract me from my guard duties.
- - - -
Mylène: Well, we both started attending DuPont at around six years old, but we never really talked much, given that we kind of ran in different circles. I mostly stuck to my theater group and Ivan could be bit of a loner except for a few people, he never really seemed like he wanted anyone around. It wasn’t until last year that we really got to know each other.
Ivan: I’d always thought that she was beautiful and awesome with the way she cared about people and the environment so much. We were in the same class for years and I’d always wanted to talk to her, but could never work up the guts to. I was never that good at letting people in. I’m still not always the best at it, really…
Mylène: You’re getting a lot better with opening up and letting people be there for you, teddy bear. And you have so many people who want to be, who care about you.
Q: How and when did you get together?
Snow Mylène: Well, it was a few months into our freshman year and Ivan and I had been getting to know each other very well. I knew that I liked him as much more than a friend, but I wasn’t sure if he felt the same way about me. Eventually, the school decided to try out this American tradition called a ‘Sadie Hawkins’ dance and I decided to take my chance and ask Ivan to be my date. He looked so surprised, it was adorable!
Quasilvan: Of course, I said yes. At the dance, we both ended up getting a little overwhelmed by all of the people so we stepped out for a little while. We ended up going for a walk along the trail. We stopped and watched the sunset…and ended up having our first kiss. It was…perfect.
- - - -
Ivan Oogie: Well, uh…(flushes bright red) I…wasn’t exactly as…smooth as I woulda hoped. See, we’d both gotten dragged off to that reform program, and when I saw ‘er in the hallway, I immediately recognized as the girl whose dreams I visited, the one I was…in love with. So, when we bumped into each other…my mouth spoke before my brain could catch up. I just came out and basically said “Be mine.” (Buries his face in his hand) So [beep]ing embarassin’. And in front’a people too!
Mylènsula: (Giggles) Well, I, for one, found his forwardness charming and bold! My heart already belonged to him anyway, so how could I say no? Shortly after, he took me on our horrifically romantic first date, and we’ve been wreaking havoc together ever since! Isn’t that right, Spookums?
Ivan Oogie: (Blushes and buries his head in her shoulder)
- - - -
MyLeaf: Well, it was a few months into the year we started the middle school grades. I had been crushing on him for ages, and I was pretty sure he felt the same way. We’d been spending a lot of time together, him helping tend to my plants and just chilling after classes. So…I took my shot and asked him if he wanted to go on a date. You can only imagine how I bloomed when he said yes! I set up a picnic in the woods just off the courtyard and we spent the whole afternoon together, just enjoying the company and talking about whatever.
Ivan Bumble: Was very happy when Flower asked me. I like her for a very long time too, and wanted her to like me. For date, I know Mylène love flowers, so I try to make a crown for her. It was…not good. Am better at drums than making art things.
MyLeaf: I thought it was adorable and very sweet. I have it pressed in my keepsake book!
- - - -
Ivan Kong: (Blushes bright red) Well…that day was certainly something special. I had been in love with Mylène pretty much from the day I met her. But…I was way too shy to tell her how I felt. Eve try time I tried…the words kept getting jumbled up in my head and I would just walk away frustrated. And then I would worry whenever I did that that Mylène would think I didn’t like her. I just got so deep in my own head. Thankfully, she’s not as bad with words as I can be.
Mylèntasma: I had also been in love with him for ages, and wanted to find the perfect moment to profess this to him. I had written a special composition to tell him how I felt, and I tried several times to perform it, but things seemed to keep getting in the way. Finally, on a gloomy fall afternoon, things seemed to come together. I had managed to get him alone in my dear concert hall, and I played my heart out. I’m just so happy he accepted and returned my feelings. We’ve been in harmony ever since!
- - - -
Demelène: Oh, I remember that wonderful day clearly, even though it was so many years ago now. I was down on Earth, tending to the new sprouts of the Summer season, when I felt a hot rush of wind I would know anywhere. It was my Ivan, of course, and he had this adorable, bashful expression on his face. I was hoping he was going to ask if we could begin proper immortal courtship, but somewhere in my mind I just couldn’t believe it. I still struggled quite a bit with confidence back then…
HephIvan: Well, to me, she’s always been so beautiful, this vision of loveliness and kindness, certainly way too good for me…I was praying to the Fates that she would say yes, but I didn’t have my hopes up. I had worked for weeks to make her the perfect gift, her gold and amber wreath of wheat, so I brought it to her, and confessed that I’d been in love with her for years. By some miracle, she felt the same way and we became an item. And now, here we are, years later, happily married.
Demelène: I still wear the wreath every day, along with this, now! (Shows her beautiful wedding ring, made by Ivan, naturally.)
- - - -
Venom Bringer: I knew I would have to do something truly special to prove to her that I was worthy to be her partner, so I did what I do best. I found the perfect time to bust us both out of our cells during a transfer, and I took her out to terrorize Paris. I brought her to where we first laid eyes on each other, where I’d spelled out her name with the bones of the gutless higher-ups of an oil company that was ruining the earth. I confessed my undying devotion, and she agreed to be mine.
Nightmare Weaver: It was so romantic! I had been wanting to go after those fools for ages, and he had done it just for me! Of course, I said yes! After that, we went and tore down a few buildings that were being constructed on protected natural land, and shared our first kiss before those annoying heroes managed to catch up to us. We were thrown back into that lousy asylum, but I didn’t care! The man of my dreams was finally mine, and nothing could take the joy of that away from me!
- - - -
Bullseye: Oh, it was just the cutest thing. He was so old-fashioned about it, but in the most adorable way! He actually called up my dad to ask his permission to take me on a date, and I knew that papa liked him. After that, he asked me to meet him in the training room. He was waiting with flowers and everything! He was blushing so much, I thought his cheeks might never lose the pink. He was so sweet and genuine with his confession that I couldn’t help but fall even deeper for him. Of course, I still had to tease him a little bit!
Captain France: She made me beat her in a sparring match before I could take her out on a date. It took me six tries, but I finally managed to do it! I decided to go simple, I took her for a walk around Paris, we got lunch and saw a movie. It might seem a little boring, but for us, it was perfect. Being able to call this amazing girl my partner was more than worth getting knocked on my ass a few times…excuse my language.
- - - -
Stoneheart: I still remember the day…well, night she asked me out as one of the happiest of my life! It was the dead of the night, and I was sound asleep in my room. But then, I woke up to a loud scraping noise. I looked and there were huge claw marks across my wall. You could say I was…a bit spooked. Then I heard something under my bed, before it darted out and into the shadows. For a few minutes, I kept seeing this shadowy figure dart around my room, before it seemed to disappear…but not for long.
Horrificator: That shadowy creature was me, of course! And then I went for the final scare. I exploded out of the shadows with my most petrifying scream and scared him out of his wits! I waited for him to calm down and stop screaming before I confessed my love. Thankfully, he felt the same and found my…unorthodox approach charming! So much so that that was when he kissed me for the first time! I’m just glad his parents didn’t wake up!
- - - -
Drylène: Oh, I remember the day when he began courting me. It was one of the times I had come to visit him on the mountainside, and he had quite the surprise waiting for me! A beautiful picnic decorated with candles and all of my favorite flowers! After we sat down, he played a song he had written specially for me to profess his love! It was beautiful, and I could only give yes as my answer!
Ogrevan: I worked on that song for weeks. I wanted it to be perfect, to convey everything that I felt for her. I was so nervous that day, terrified I was going to play a wrong note or say the wrong thing and mess everything up. But…the moment I saw her face, all of those nerves disappeared. And when she kissed me after accepting and returning my feelings…I felt like I was on top of the world.
- - - -
Ivan: Well…it was a bit of an…awkward situation…what with me getting akumatized and whisking her away to the top of the Eiffel Tower and all…Still wish that could have gone better.
Mylène: But no one can argue with the results, to be sure! Yeah, the whole “taken by the first akuma and then falling from the top of the Eiffel Tower” was…an experience. But I got the sweetest boyfriend in the entire world out of it! I still have the song he wrote me in my keepsake box! And at least it’ll be a funny story to tell our kids someday!
Ivan: I’m just glad it all worked out. We’ve been through so much together now, and I couldn’t imagine wanting anyone else by my side.
Q: What is one of the things you love most about him/her?
Quasilvan: Her kindness and willingness to give love to everyone, no matter who, or what they are. Her endless compassion for everybody and everything around her never ceases to amaze me, even when people have been less than kind to her, like her stepmother. She’s the most truly good-hearted person I’ve ever known, and that’s why I’m so grateful she decided to give that heart to me.
Snow Mylène: And I love his gentle spirit, how he doesn’t use his size and strength against people, even though he easily could. He’s been through so much, suffered so much cruelty, and yet he’s still one of the most empathetic and tender-hearted people I know. He uses his natural gifts to help rather than harm, despite how people treat him even now, and that’s what I admire the most about him.
- - - -
Mylensula: Of course, I love the way my darling BuggyBoo is so passionate about his craft of terror. You always know that whatever he has planned is going to be horrifying and spectacular, so I look forward to it every time. All the time, effort and finesse he puts into each scare he pulls off, and the gleam in his empty eyes when he hears the screams of his victims, it thrills me to my core!
Ivan Oogie: And I love the way my scallop puts it all on the floor, brings the fire with everything she does. No matter what she’s up to, what poor sucker she’s conning, or who she’s hexin’, she gives it 110%. Everybody in the room’s gonna be payin’ attention, especially me, she’ll make sure’a that! Nothin’ gets me goin’ more than seeing her make a show out of her latest scheme, because I know she’s putting all her wicked lil heart into it!
- - - -
Ivan Bumble: I love Flower’s passion about protecting and loving all living things. She treat everyone with respect and kindness, no matter if monster, human or plant. Makes people feel safe and cared about, she listen and she help where she can. She make me want to be better, kinder person every day.
MyLeaf: And I love how he’s so fiercely strong and protective with the ones he loves, but at the same time, so gentle and kind. He’ll step up to fight for someone who can’t fight for themselves, but also has the gentlest touch when he’s working with my plant babies or helping someone who’s injured. I love both sides of him, and that’s something that’s never going to change.
- - - -
Mylentasma: How fiercely and with all of himself that he protects the things he cares about. He’s never too afraid to jump into a battle if one of us is at risk, and he’ll give it his all to protect someone who can’t defend themselves. I love how he’s always willing to stand up to bullies, whether it be stupid kids harassing monsters or his own father being awful, he won’t stand for people being mistreated. Even if he can lose his temper sometimes, I know it’s just because he cares so much about things being fair and safe for everyone.
Ivan Kong: And I love how Mylène is so passionate about her craft, and puts her all into every performance. She always pours her entire heart into the composition, the preparation, and the performance. It’s amazing to get to watch her, and know that the heart of such an amazing and talented woman belongs to me. Mylène can make you feel every emotion at once when she puts on a show, she’s a true work of art.
- - - -
Hephlvan: I love the compassion and dedication she shows to every living thing, no matter how big or small. She takes care of everyone on Olympus, both physically and emotionally. She’s kind of like the mother that so many of our fellow immortals never got to have. And the way she makes sure the mortals are taken care of without fail every single year. Her unending kindness never fails to amaze me.
Demelène: And I love how he’s never let anyone’s negative opinions of him and the terrible words of foolish humans make him bitter or spiteful. He maintains his dignity, and he’s the kindest, most merciful and helpful god I’ve ever known. Whenever someone may need assistance, he’s always one of the first ones to offer and he never requires anything in return. He treats everyone with respect and dignity, even if they don’t return the favor.
- - - -
Nightmare Weaver: I admire the fact that he matches his incredible strength with the cunning to pull off plans that can even rival Max’s in genius! It’s what makes him such a formidable villain, and why we’re such a perfect match! So many fools are so quick to underestimate him, dismiss him as a mindless brute who only knows how to do physical damage, but he’s so much more than that! The way he can utterly break a person inside and out is something that makes my dark heart race.
Venom Bringer: And I adore the way she doesn’t let the experiences of her past stop her from being the most terrifying villain who ever lived and following her passion of spreading fear. The fools who tormented her will live to fear her name, and I’ll be by her side to make sure that happens. But she doesn’t need me to be strong. She’s overcome her past fears to become something truly menacing, and it makes me love her all the more.
- - - -
Captain France: I love how she never lets anyone underestimate her just because she doesn’t have powers like most of the others do. She’s one of the most capable fighters in the entire school, and she’ll be happy to prove it against anyone. Her strength and resolve are truly inspiring to me, and I’ll never stop being amazed at what she can do. She’s a true hero, even without powers, and I won’t let anyone say different.
Bullseye: l admire his strength too, with all of my heart. He’s been through so much, both before and after he was frozen. He’s lost so many people, missed so much of a life he never got to live, and was dropped into a world that was completely new to him. But he never let that make him bitter or keep him from treating people with kindness. And he’s never afraid to admit when he’s confused, scared or needs help, and to me, that shows true strength.
- - - -
Horrificator: I admire the way my darling gem is so fierce whenever anyone challenges him! The way he crushes his opponents underfoot when they dare to question his strength and power, it’s truly something to behold. He makes me swoon every time we go out to terrorize the Light, with how he wreaks havoc and tears apart everything those fools hold dear. He lets no one disrespect him, or me, and that’s why I adore him so. He has such passion for villainy, it’s truly inspiring!
Stoneheart: And it always gets me going when I see how my little terror has so much passion for what she does! She puts her all into every spook she pulls on those pathetic weaklings, and it gets my granite heart racing. She’s so beautiful when she’s at her most terrifying, and with every scream that makes her power grow, my love for her grows along with it. I always can’t wait to see what she’s going to do next!
- - - -
Ogrevan: How fiercely she protects the people, creatures and things she loves. She’s never one to stand down and let someone she cares about be stepped on, even if it’s by someone who’s bigger, stronger or more powerful than she is. She amazes me with how absolutely fearless she can be, and the compassion she shows for everybody around her. She drives me to be better every single day.
Drylène: And I love his gentle and creative spirit, how much of his heart he puts into his music and poetry. You can feel the emotion in every note and word, and it just makes me fall deeper and deeper for him with every piece. So many people always seem to see him as this big brute, swinging his club around and deadlifting trees-not that it doesn’t make me blush when he does that last one-, but I see what’s within-his loving and artistic side.
- - - -
Mylène: I love how he doesn’t let the way people perceive him and judge him because of his appearance dictate who he is as a person. He’s the sweetest, gentlest boy I’ve ever known, even though people refuse to believe that because of his father’s reputation. He treats people with kindness even when they don’t have the courtesy to return the favor, which shows that in the way that counts, he’s stronger than any of them will ever be.
Ivan: And I love how no matter what people try to stop her or tell her to back down, she never stops fighting for what’s right. She stands up to people that most others wouldn’t in a million years, to try to make the world a better place for everyone. She’s the bravest person I know, even if it takes her a bit to realize it sometimes. She inspires me every singly day.
Q: What are some of your favorite things to do as a couple?
Snow Mylène: Oh, we love going for quiet walks in the woods outside the school, spending time with all my animal friends and just enjoying the beauty of nature. It’s so peaceful out there, one of the few times I get to see him totally relaxed. You should see his face whenever we go to visit the rabbits’ burrow! His smile at all the little baby bunnies is the cutest thing in the world!
Quasilvan: I also just…really love listening to Mylène sing. Whether she’s on stage performing with the other royals, calming down the animals or just humming to herself when we’re having a quiet moment alone, I just love to hear her. Something about her voice just makes me feel…calm and happy.
- - - -
Ivan Oogie: Well, we always love scarin’ the wits outta people together, whether it’s with her spells or my spooks. Nothin’s more fun for us than hearin’ the screams of our victims! And when I get to watch her string those poor suckers along only to crush ‘em in the end with total hopelessness…it just reminds me even more that she’s the girl for me!
Mylènsula: And I so love getting to watch him terrify people, and give some frights of my own. But we do enjoy our quieter moments too! It’s such fun to watch those pathetic “horror” movies that humans make and laugh about how we could do it so much better! But as much as we love our villainous ways, I’m never opposed to a tender moment with my buggyboo! His strong arms are my favorite place to be! (Giggles)
- - - -
MyLeaf: Oh, we love spending time in the greenhouse together, whether it’s just relaxing or tending to my darling babies! He’s so good with them and they just adore him, especially Cookie and Ogg. It’s so relaxing for both of us to be in nature, which is why we also like to go for quiet walks around the woods around the school. It’s so peaceful and spooky out there, perfect for monsters who need a bit of a break. I’m also never opposed to a cuddle with my snowbeau! (Giggles) Yetis give the best, comfiest hugs after all!
Ivan Bumble: (Blushes and nuzzles her neck) I like all things Mylène said. Also love when she come to Monster SMASH practices and shows. Feel much less nervous when she there. Flower is my muse.
- - - -
Ivan Kong: I love getting to listen to her play and sing, no matter what the occasion. Her voice is the one thing that can always send my heart racing no matter what. Especially when it’s a quiet moment between us when she’s singing just for me. It just feels…perfect. I also love going for a swing for me, fly for her, around Paris, just enjoying the scenery and each other’s company. It’s one of the few times I feel totally relaxed, like nothing could make me hulk out and go Kong.
Mylentasma: And I love getting to give back to the community with my darling monkey man! We especially love spending time with the less-privileged children of Paris, it always makes them so happy. You should see the way they climb all over him, they just adore Ivan, it’s precious! It’s also so much fun whenever we try and spook one another, though I’m considerably better at it than he is. It’s not really his fault, because how could I possibly be scared of this adorable face? (She cups his cheeks as he blushes like mad)
- - - -
Demelène: Oh, I love whenever we’re able to go down for a quiet moment together on Earth, sitting and enjoying the sunlight while I tell him stories of my latest encounters with mortals and he tells me of his latest projects. He usually has some new gift that he made for me, not that I’m complaining. Who doesn’t love to be spoiled, when it’s done out of love? I also do genuinely do enjoy times when I get to help him in his forge. It’s so fascinating to see him work and the passion he puts into it. And speaking of passion (she smiles coyly), I, of course, enjoy my…private time with my husband in our chambers.
Hephlvan: (Goes insanely red) I…can say the same, love. I also love getting to watch her do her work down on Earth. The way the whole world seems to bloom from just her presence alone is amazing to me. I’m truly married to an incredible goddess, and I never forget it. And I love getting to show her the things I create, especially the gifts I make for her. The way her face lights up with curiosity never fails to make my heart skip a beat.
- - - -
Venom Bringer: I love whenever we’re able to break out of that wretched asylum to do some petrifying and cracking skulls. It’s a true gift to me to get to see my beautiful scarecrow in her element, when she’s making people live their worst nightmare. While we always know it won’t be long before the heroes come after us, it’s worth it get to spend some time with her, doing what we both love.
Nightmare Weaver: There’s nothing better in the world, my darling brute! We’re villains to the core, and spreading fear and pain is what we do! But, if we’re truly being honest, I also enjoy when we can have quiet, tender moments together. We’ve both suffered so much pain in our lives, and just being able to take a moment to hold each other…makes everything feel alright, even if it’s only for a moment. Being with him makes me feel safe.
- - - -
Bullseye: Well, I’ll always enjoy the moments when we’re in the heat of battle together. We’re totally in sync and have each other’s backs no matter what. It’s almost like I can read his mind and I can read his. There’s nothing better than taking down a bad guy with the one you love, in my opinion. But I also enjoy our quiet moments, where I can just sit and tell or show him things about the modern world. It’s always adorable to see how amazed he is about how things have advanced!
Captain France: That’s what I love most with her, too. She’s always so patient explaining things to me, it blows my mind. I especially love our movie nights, where I just get to hold her close and enjoy all the stories that have been made since I was frozen. She still has to explain a lot to me, but she doesn’t seem to mind. And let’s just say, I don’t mind being tossed around in a sparring match or two if it means spending time with her.
- - - -
Stoneheart: Well, we always love going out to wreak some havoc on Paris. There’s nothing more fun for a couple of villains than turning the landscape into a living hell for pathetic little wastes of space like those ‘rebels’ who try to challenge us! With me knocking down buildings and crumbling streets, and her spreading nightmares and collecting screams, we’re one of the best villain teams out there. And nothing makes me happier than getting to do have some good-old-fashioned wicked fun with my little nightmare!
Horrificator: I absolutely adore getting to ruin lives with my hunky mountain of a man! And since we both grow bigger and stronger with the more people try to fight us, we’re able to cause that much more chaos! What could be more wonderful? But I also love when we get to teach the younger classes of villains, like sweet little Sasha, the ways of being a truly awful villain. They adore and look up to us, so it’s only right that we set a good example!
- - - -
Drylène: Oh, I love just spending a quiet afternoon with him, sitting in the woods or on the mountainside, enjoying the scenery of our beautiful home and listening to him write his poetry and music. Getting to hear what’s going through his mind and heart is something that means so much to me, he’s so talented and passionate about it! (Giggles) And I love to pay him visits when he’s on guard duty, just to make it a little more interesting for him!
Ogrevan: I have to say, she’s always a welcome surprise, even if she makes it a bit hard to stay focused on actually guarding the place. (Gives her a playful knowing look, at which she giggles) I also love just going on walks through the forest with her, helping her tend to the trees and wildlife. The Everwoods are so beautiful, and when I have the most beautiful flower in all of Miracularia by my side, it’s hard not to feel happy and content.
- - - -
Ivan: I love it when she comes to watch Kitty Section rehearsals and just hangs out with all of us. Getting to put the way I feel about her into music is something that means a lot to me and I’m glad I get to share that with her. I also like when she comes over to my house for movie nights and we just chill on the couch, talking about whatever and enjoying each other’s company. Honestly, any moment that I spend with her feels perfect.
Mylène: Awww, Teddy Bear! I love whenever we go out and do volunteer work together. He’s always so happy to do it with me and we have such a great time helping out around Paris. It feels good to give back to the community with someone you care about. I also love when we’ll just spend a quiet afternoon walking around Paris, enjoying the scenery and each other’s company. Just simple little moments like that.
Q: How do you usually deal with arguments or disagreements?
Quasilvan: Whenever there’s something we disagree about, which doesn’t happen often as we’re usually on the same wavelength and talk about things when something is wrong, we both try to take a minute to cool down. Usually I’ll go up to my belltower and work on my poems for a little bit, and Mylène will go out to the woods to spend time with her animals.
Snow Mylène: After we’ve both had time to cool off we’ll meet up to talk through whatever we were butting heads about and come up with a compromise that makes us both happy. The key to staying healthy in a relationship is communicating what you’re feeling and being honest with one another after all.
- - - -
Mylènsula: Well, we hate to be mad at each other, so we always try to resolve things before they can lead to a fight, but no one is perfect. I will admit, I can be quite…petty when I become sufficiently angry and at times say things that I shouldn’t and that I don’t mean. I always feel so terrible afterward, knowing that I hurt my darling buggyboo.
Ivan Oogie: And I’ll admit that when I get steamed, I can be pretty bullheaded. Sometimes I storm off and it takes me a bit to even wanna talk. I know I shouldn’t ignore her and I’m lettin’ my anger get the best’a me, but I’ve always had a temper. But it never takes us too long to get things patched up, right darlin’?
Mylènsula: Of course, my love! Eventually, after we’ve both had time to calm down, we sit and talk things out, work out a compromise between what we both want! Our love will always prevail in the end!
- - - -
Ivan Bumble: I do not like to be upset or angry with Flower, and thankfully, does not happen often. We talk about things before they become problem. But, we are not perfect. Sometimes we do not agree, and we fight. I do not like when this happens. Yetis can be very stubborn, so sometimes can take a while before am ready to talk things out. Flower is very patient. I try to be too.
MyLeaf: Like Ivan said, we hate being upset with one another, it just hurts too much. But, no relationship is perfect, and arguments are bound to happen. And when they do, we both just take a bit of time to cool off. I’ll go spend some time with my plants and just tending the greenhouse, and he goes to practice his drums or work out for a while. Once we’ve both had time to breathe and ease our frustrations, we meet up to talk things through and come up with a compromise. Communication is key, after all.
- - - -
Mylèntasma: Well, my monkey man and I can both be very passionate people, so of course there are times when our heads can both get a little hot when we disagree about something. They don’t happen often, given that we’re open with our feelings and talk through things before they become problems. But no relationship is without its troubles, and there are times when we’ve both stormed off in a huff after saying things we didn’t mean. We’re not proud of it, but it happens.
Ivan Kong: Usually we both need to take a little while to cool our heads. I’ll work out for a little bit, go for a climb or some sparring with Kim, and she vents through her music. After that, we’ll meet up and talk things out. I can still be a bit stubborn sometimes, especially when I think I’m right, but thankfully, she’s pretty good at getting me to pull my head out of my ass. We come up with a compromise and apologize for being dumb. We know we’re gonna be okay, because our relationship is strong.
- - - -
Hephlvan: Well, even when an immortal couple loves each other as deeply and infinitely as we do, eternity is a long time and there are bound to be disagreements. Mylène and I have always been open with our feelings and when we have an issue with something, so we’re usually good about talking things through. But still, there are times when we can have our heated disputes. Like when one of thinks the other is overworking themself, for example. That’s…one of the most frequent arguments we have.
Demelène: It’s only because we want one another to be healthy and safe, love. In any case, whenever a dispute arises, we both take our time to decompress, doing whatever we need to do to calm down before coming back together to talk things through. We value communication and honesty in our relationship, and that’s why we’ve been able to remain strong through our many years.
- - - -
Nightmare Weaver: Well, we’re very rarely at odds with one another, given how we see eye to eye on most things. But…there are times when, due to our mutual somewhat reserved natures, we can let heated emotions get the better of us and it results in a fight. Naturally, neither of us likes it when this happens, and we try to resolve it as quickly as possible…but both of us can also be quite stubborn. We never fail to come around and come back together, though.
Venom Bringer: I admit, I’ve said things that I deeply regret when we’ve had our fights, and I’ll never truly forgive myself for the times I’ve caused her pain. But like Mylène said, we always come to our senses. Usually after we’ve taken some time to cool down, me bashing someone in a sparring match or getting in a workout and her working on her fear gas weapons, we’ll come together for a talk and work things out. We love each other too much not to.
- - - -
Captain France: As much as we try to always be open with our feelings and talk things out, no relationship is really perfect. Sometimes I take on too much and can be a bit too stubborn in my role as leader, and sometimes Mylène can go too far with trying to prove her capabilities as a non-meta hero. When that happens, we can get heated. But we always manage to get things back on the right track. Usually we both just need to take a moment to breathe.
Bullseye: Exactly. We’ll both take some time to do our relaxing activities, his writing and some target practice for me. After we’ve both been able to think about things, we’ll apologize and talk things out. Usually we’re able to come up with a compromise that makes both of us happy, and that’s what a healthy relationship is all about.
- - - -
Horrificator: Well…we always try to be good at being open with each other and not letting negative feelings and thoughts fester until they become problems, but…when you’re both villains with infamous tempers, there are bound to be times when things can blow up. There have been times when I’ve met my anger get the best of me and said things to hurt my darling gem, and he’s done the same. We both regret it afterward, hate ourselves for causing each other pain. But these are merely small bumps in the road.
Stoneheart: Exactly, babe. After we’ve had some to cool down, wreaked some havoc on our own, we’ll talk things out and get back on the right track. We always make things right, even if it takes a little longer sometimes. I’m not letting my little fright slip away from me, that’s for damn sure.
- - - -
Ogrevan: Well, we always try to be open with our feelings, because that’s how you keep a healthy and loving relationship together. But everyone has disagreements from time to time. Usually whenever we get a little heated about something, what we try to do is step away for a moment to think and cool our heads. I’ll usually play my music and she tends her trees. Relaxing activities that give us a way to ease our nerves and consider each other’s perspective.
Drylène: After that, we’ll meet up again and talk things out, come up with something between what we both want, a compromise. Communicating is important, that’s how you fix problems. And even when we aren’t seeing eye to eye at the moment, I know we’ll hash things out. Our love is strong enough for bumps in the road.
- - - -
Mylène: Well, we always try to put everything we’re feeling on the table before it can fester and become a problem. That’s the way you keep a relationship healthy, open communication. But of course, every once in a while we will have a disagreement about something, though of course we both hate when that happens.
Ivan: Usually if we have a little fight about something we’ll try and give each other a few hours to cool off before we meet up to talk things out. I admit, sometimes I can get a little heated and storm off when I should stay and talk things out, but Mylène is always patient with me and is always ready to work it out when I cool my head. She’s awesome like that.
Q: What do you imagine for your future together?
Snow Mylène: Oh, I’ve thought of what our lives will be like many times. Of course, I’ll be responsible for taking over my kingdom once I come of age, and there’s no one I’d rather have ruling by my side. I can already see us leading as kindly and fairly as we can, and doing it together. Our kingdom will be a safe haven for anyone who feels like they aren’t welcome anywhere else, and for all the creatures of the wild, of course!
Quasilvan: I’ll admit, I’m a bit nervous at the idea of becoming a king, but I know that as long as I have Mylène by my side, I’ll be okay. I definitely see us having a couple of kids, who will always know how amazing they are and that we love them no matter what. We’ll be sure to teach them the importance of treating others and the environment with kindness and valuing themselves.
- - - -
Ivan Oogie: Well, I plan on keepin’ this little beauty all to myself for as long as there’s still breath in my lungs, so you can bet your [beep]in’ ass she’s gon’ be my wife someday! As soon as I can get a ring on that finger! We’ll keep frightenin’ and hexin’ people till the end of our days, rulin’ Halloween and the seven seas together! I’ll build my legacy as the best damn boogie man there ever was, and she’ll be the most feared sorceress queen of the seas! That sounds like a damn fine plan to me!
Mylènsula: Just perfect, my darling scream! And of course, we hope to eventually welcome a few little ones! We’ll be far better parents than the lousy ones we had, to be sure! We’ll teach them the ways of sorcery and scaring, and they’ll be some of the most terrifying villains to ever walk the earth! Isn’t that right, Spookums?
Ivan Oogie: You better believe it, Scallop!
- - - -
MyLeaf: Well, obviously we plan on being together after we graduate DuPont. I love him with all of my heart, I could never imagine us parting ways. We both want to do our part to help with Adrien’s cause of fighting for monsters’ rights with humans, so that’s definitely something I envision for us. I’ll keep working with my plants and developing new botanical tonics and he’ll keep playing his music with Monster SMASH, and of course, we’ll support each other no matter what. And I definitely see a wedding in our future.
Ivan Bumble: Have always known I want to marry my Flower. She is best part of my life. I want to spend rest of it by her side, keeping her safe and happy. If I can do that, I will be happy. Also want to have family together. Does not matter how big, as long as is with her.
- - - -
Ivan Kong: Well, we’ll keep protecting Paris together, for one thing. I’ll keep fighting by her side, and supporting her no matter what she does. She’s going to be one of the greatest performers this world has ever seen. And I intend to be right there with her, cheering her on through it all. I’m…not really sure what I want to do once we retire from being heroes, but I’m sure with her and our friends there, the right thing will show itself to me with time.
Mylentasma: Of course, darling. You’ll find what you’re meant to do, and it will be something great. And of course, we hope to get married when the time is right! I can already picture our beautiful wedding day, alive with music and spooks abound. And we hope to eventually start a little family of ghouls of our own. I’ve always envisioned us raising children together, and I know he’ll be the most wonderful, loving father!
- - - -
Demelène: Well, of course, we quite literally have eternity to be together, being immortals and all. And I know that with every year we spend together in the infinite ones we have, our love will only grow. We’ll keep doing the best we possibly can in our roles as deities, and support each other no matter what. I’ll keep the seasons coming and going, and he’ll keep Olympus running smoothly with his work. I couldn’t imagine a better partner to spend eternity with.
Hephlvan: And I couldn’t imagine living my immortal life without her by my side. Such a future could only be darkness. No offense, Reshma! We have discussed it, and we would like to welcome children of our own someday. However many it ends up being doesn’t matter. What matters is that we’ll raise them with love and teach them the responsibility that comes with being gods. If we can do that, I think we’ll be fine.
- - - -
Venom Bringer: Well, for one thing, eventually, we and all of friends are going to break out of that wretched asylum for good and tear it to the ground. When that happens, we’ll show everyone why they’re right to fear our names. We’ll craft the world in our own villainous image and make the heroes wish they never thought to challenge us! And when the time is right, I’ll ask my darling little fright to marry me, and we’ll spend the rest of our lives crushing spirits by each other’s side.
Nightmare Weaver: (Swoons) It all sounds just perfect! We’ll make the world a walking nightmare for anyone who dares to challenge us, and darkness will finally reign supreme! Fear will be the dominant force, and no one will be able to stop us! And if we happen to bring a few villainous little ones into the world to share our love of villainy, what’s the matter with that, loves?
- - - -
Bullseye: Well, we’ll do our part in protecting the world together, for certain. The Avengers, we’ve all talked about staying a team after graduation and going pro together, so that’s something we look forward to! Ivan and I both take part in and support a lot of community outreach programs, so we’ll keep doing that. And, we do hope to get married someday, maybe have a family when the time is right. Whatever’s in the cards for us, I know we’ll get through it together.
Captain France: Pretty much everything Mylène said. But of course, heroes all eventually retire. And when that happens, who knows what will come next for us? But as long as she’s there with me, I know I’ll be happy. I can see us settling down together somewhere nice and quiet, with the family we’ve built up. I know that life will lead us to the right path after we’re ready to take the next step.
- - - -
Stoneheart: Well, as soon as we’re out of school, me, my little fright and the rest of our villain friends are going to conquer the Light Side once and for all, make all those pathetic rebels kneel before us before we crush them underfoot. We’ll start with Paris and then move on to the rest of the world. Darkness and evil will reign over everything. And when the time comes, I’ll ask my horrifying beauty to marry me, and we’ll spend the rest of our lives together.
Horrificator: I can hardly wait for that day to come! It will be perfect! And of course, me and my darling gem hope to eventually welcome a few wicked little ones of our own. Whatever powers they may end up having, we’ll teach them how to show those pathetic civilians to fear their names and tremble when they walk by. We’ll be a perfect, evil little family!
- - - -
Drylène: I already know I want to spend the rest of my life with him. And when the time is right, we’ll get married and spend our long lives as partners. He’ll take over as head of the village guard, keeping the family we build safe and writing more of his music. And I’ll work to achieve my goals, performing with the Dionysian Association and serving on the Elder Nymph Council. We’ll keep supporting each other no matter what, and work through any problems that come our way.
Ogrevan: As long as I have Mylène by my side, I know I’ll be fine. I worry sometimes about failing in my duties as head of the guard, but I know that as long as it’s to keep her and my sister safe, I’ll do what I have to. She’s an amazing actress and a great leader, so I know she’ll achieve what she sets her mind to, and I’ll be at every show and support every decision. I can’t wait to have a family with her, whatever it ends up looking like.
- - - -
Ivan: Well, we’ve both talked about getting married, so that’s something I can definitely see for us, but that’s a ways off, so in the near future, I see us just continuing to support each other and hopefully continuing to fall deeper for one another every day. I can see my little mouse continuing to do her thing and save the world, and I intend to be there fighting by her side. I’ll write as many songs and poems as I need to so that she sees she’s the best thing that ever happened to me.
Mylène: And when the time does come for us to get married, I can already envision it being the happiest day of my life. I can see us getting a nice little apartment, somewhere away from the main streets of the city, and like Ivan said, continuing to support each other. Eventually, maybe we have a couple kids and we raise them to treat other people kindly and always look out for the world we live in.
Ivan: That sounds perfect, Mylène.
Q: What’s the one thing you want your partner to know and never forget?
Quasilvan: That the true reason she’s the fairest of them all isn’t because of her outer beauty, though to me she’s the most beautiful woman in the world. It’s because she has the kindest heart of anyone I’ve ever known and how much she cares for everyone and everything around her. Her pure soul and gentle heart are what make her the most beautiful person on earth.
Snow Mylène: And I want him to know that no matter what anyone says or thinks, he is beautiful, inside and out. The only ones who would try to tell him otherwise are narrow-minded fools who can’t see his kindness and honesty for what it is. The people who truly matter know and love him for the beauty that lies within.
- - - -
Mylensula: That no matter what anybody says, who tries to shame him for doing things his own way, the fools who try to say he brings shame to boogie-kind, he will always be perfect to me! I’ve admired him since the day we met, and my admiration for him only grows with each day that passes! No one in the world can terrify weaklings or make my heart race like he does, and he’s going to go down in history as the greatest boogeyman who ever lived! You mark my words!
Ivan Oogie: (Blushes) Darlin’…What I want my scallop to know is that I’m always gonna have her back, no matter what comes our way. My li’l witch can handle herself just fine, I know that. But as long as I’m around, no one’s ever gonna lay a hand on her pretty li’l head. Anyone who has a problem with the way she does business and tries to do somethin’ about it, is gonna have to deal the boogeyman!
Mylènsula: (Coos) Spookums~! (They begin to passionately kiss)
- - - -
Ivan Bumble: Want Flower to know that she is my peace. World outside of mountains can be very…loud and overwhelming. But whenever she is around…I feel okay. She makes things not as scary, and I love her very much. Being with her makes me very happy.
MyLeaf: (Kisses his cheek) And I want my Yeti Teddy to know that even if people refuse to see him as anything but a brute because of stupid yeti stereotypes, I see who he really is, and he makes me feel safe. He’s gentle, kind, a passionate creative and thinks much deeper about things than anyone gives him credit for. He has a such a big heart and I know he’ll always be there to stand by me.
- - - -
Mylèntasma: I want Ivan to remember that even if he can struggle with his temper and controlling his Kong form, he’s not a bad person and he’ll always be a hero in my eyes. If anything, it’s just because he has such a big heart and is so protective of those he loves. He would never harm an innocent person and I know he’ll always be there to protect me and the others when we need it, because that’s who he is.
Ivan Kong: I want my phantom to know how truly beautiful and inspiring she is in everything she does. Whenever she takes the stage, when she’s leading people to safety or taking down an akuma, or even when she’s just sitting working on a new piece, she just glows from within. It makes me want to be the best possible version of myself, a version that deserves to be by her side. She’s amazing.
- - - -
Hephlvan: That she’s always been and will always be more than enough. She has so many responsibilities as the goddess of the seasons, and always feels like it’s her job to care for people and do everything for the mortals. I just want her to remember that she’s important too and that we all love and value her for everything she does. She’s the kindest deity I’ve ever known, and she’ll always be enough for me.
Demelène: And I want him to remember that no matter what ignorant mortals say, he’s beautiful, both inside and out. His passion for the things he creates, his gentle heart, how he’s always willing to help others. He’s the most amazing men I’ve ever met, and if anyone can’t look past the differences about his appearance, then they’re a fool. I’m so lucky to spend eternity with him as my husband.
- - - -
Nightmare Weaver: I wish that he would always know how much I admire him for his strength even with all this life has put him through. He’s never let the damage from his past stop him from conquering any obstacle in his way and I find that so truly inspiring. It’s why I fell in love with him, his will to keep going no matter what fool tries to stop him or how many times we get locked in that blasted asylum.
Venom Bringer: That she is the light that brings me out the darkness of my own mind. Whenever I start to doubt whether I’ll be able to prove myself, all I have to do is look at her. She motivates me to go big or go home, because I know she’ll stand by me no matter what. Just like I’ll stand by her, and always keep her safe, no matter who I have to break to do it.
- - - -
Captain France: That no matter how much the modern world scares and confuses me, it’s worth it as long as she’s here. Whenever I miss my old life, my family, my old home…just seeing her face is enough to make me feel like everything is going to be alright. She makes me feel safe and helps me whenever there’s something I don’t understand. I know she’ll always be there for me.
Bullseye: That the only person whose standards and expectations he needs to live up to are his own. People always put so much pressure on him, as the leader of the Avengers and this ‘legendary war hero’, but they don’t care enough to look deeper. He’s the kindest and most genuinely heroic person I’ve ever known, and the people who truly matter see that and love him for it.
- - - -
Horrificator: That he’s so much smarter and a more capable villain than people think he is. Everyone always treats him like a dumb brute who only knows how to smash things. But I, and all of our friends, know the truth. He’s on the same level of wicked brilliance as the rest of us, some of our most devious schemes have been his idea! One day, they’ll all know what he’s capable of!
Stoneheart: Thanks, babe. I want my little terror to know that no matter who tries to make her feel small, she’s the scariest villain out there, and I know Eri and Anthony. No one can really compete with her in the frights game, and one day, she’ll show everyone what she’s made of and stop their hearts with her power!
- - - -
Ogrevan: I want Mylène to know that she’s so much stronger than people, and even she herself sometimes, believe she is. She has so much heart and I know she’ll use it to make Miracularia a better place. She cares so much for everybody and I know she’s going to achieve her dream of serving the environmental preservation seat in the Elder Nymph Council.
Drylène: And I want him to remember that him being gentle and choosing to avoid fighting when he can doesn’t make him weak or unworthy of his future position. It means he’s compassionate and willing to give people a chance. He’s still one of the strongest people I know and he’ll be a worthy guardian of the tribe, I know it for a fact.
- - - -
Mylène: That no matter what, no matter what anyone tries to tell me or who people believe him to be because of his background, I’ll never be afraid of him. He’s the most amazing, kindest, and all-around incredible boy I’ve ever known, and even if he can struggle with his temper sometimes, I know he has the gentlest heart, and would never hurt anyone.
Ivan: That she’s so much braver and stronger than she believes herself to be, and she’s my greatest inspiration. Somehow, someway, she’s going to change the world for the better, even if she doesn’t think that herself. I love you, Little Mouse.
Mylène: I love you too, Teddy Bear.
I hope you all enjoyed this! Happy Myvan May! (Booksy, Sparky, Coco, FC, or any of my friends I work with, feel free to add any additional questions and answers you’d like!)
The skeleton put on a smile of mock innocence as she placed an apple on Mylene's plate and a tomato on Ivan's.
"I figured you two could use the nutrition. Especially you, Mylene." She remarked, taking satisfaction in seeing the princess squirm a bit. She knew the terrible memories of their pasts would come crawling in and they'd be in a fetal position in no time, all while she seemed like the sane one to most naive onlookers.
The hunchback frowned as he put a hand on his girlfriend's shoulder. It was no fun seeing her relive the time she was nearly killed by a poisoned apple. Nor was it great for him to remember being pelted by vegetables and tortured by malicious townsfolk at the Festival of Fools.
"She doesn't eat meat or drink dairy, Lila. Now could you please leave us alone?"
Lila just giggled and sauntered off. Her work was done, anyway. He then grabbed Mylene's apple and took a bite out of it.
"Ivan, what are you doing?!"
He smiled in reassurance.
"Don't worry. Just making sure it wasn't poisoned."
"By putting your own life on the line?!"
"Of course, you know I'd do that for you."
She blushed before shaking her head and biting the tomato.
"Oh Ivan, that's very sweet, but it wouldn't make me happy to see you suffering from any sort of ailment that you chose to inflict on yourself."
He chuckled.
"I suppose tomatoes can't be poisoned?"
"...oh hush up."
Happy Myvan May! Lemme know your thoughts in the reblogs and replies. @booksrbetterthanpeople @msweebyness @nerdy-chocomallow
A little ask for DC AU: Given that their girlfriend is Arkham AU’s equivalent of Big Barda…what are Sapphire Beetle and Wildmorph’s opinions of Granny Goodness?
Sapphire Beetle: *Cracks her knuckles* Oh, I’d like to have a talk with her.
Khaji-Da: *Speaks to her telepathically*
Sapphire Beetle: Fine, I wont use the bat with nails… Just the paddle with nails.
Wildmorph: All I know is, I would very much like to bite her as a copperhead. Or step on her as an elephant. Or eat her as a lion. I’d just like to hurt her is all.
Myzan’r: *Flies over* Sapphire Beetle! Wildmorph! Granny Goodness is back.
Sapphire Beetle: I’M COMING FOR YOU, OLD WOMAN! *Flies out through the roof*
Wildmorph: *Morphs into a bull and charges through the wall*
Wonderer: … We have doors, but I’m not messing with angry girlfriends.
