BEYOND THIS POINT LIES POTENTIAL CRINGE. ADVANCE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I will be turning this account into my new VPhotography account for Cyberpunk 2077. Everything below this point on my account is a remnant of what this was previously made for. (Marvel Comics roleplay.) I don't have the heart to clear out my writing from when I was an angsty teenager obsessed with superheroes, so I'm making this post as a sort of marker for anyone who may ever end up deep-scrolling my Tumblr (for some fuckin reason). For anyone who sees this when it's still new, and who may still be following me for the old Marvel stuff; Thank you for the memories. All of you. I hope I made you smile as much as you guys made me. I hope the photography I do, and anything else I create and put here, also makes you smile.

LET THE HERESY COMMENCE!

#accountchange #bigchanges #upgrades people upgrades #time for a new phase #i hope you guys stick around #if anyone is still even here #hopefully one day this post means something :')

There had been some type of flu going around, Bucky hadnt expected to get it since he had some version of the serum in his system. When it hit though, he was a mess, locking himself away and into the bathroom, a cold and shivering ball of tiny Human, head perched on the side of the bathtub. He had been throwing up for three hours now, only thing that came up now was Blood.

Cletus had heard through the grapevine that Bucky had caught it. Nobody else was willing to help out of fear of contracting it themselves, but he knew his symbiote kept him immune to things like this. He swang over, slithering through the window. "Hey, Bucky!" He called out, not quite hearing him yet.

Cletus knocked on the door, having been gone for almost a year. When it opened, he smiled sheepishly. "Wanna go get Taco Bell?"

Justine jumped a bit as the door was knocked. “Coming!” She rushed to the door from the couch, thinking it was a package.

“…Cletus!?” She gasped.

She nodded again, leaning in and kissing him gently. “I guess. I don’t think Carnage is someone’s first choice for a super hero name, but, it’s got a soft spot for me, that’s for sure.”

He grinned like an idiot, his face turning a matching shade of red. “Yeah well, quite a few people have some hard spots for it, but you like it, so that’s all that matters to me.”

She smiled back at him, sighing happilly. “I’m glad.” The blonde gave another kiss. “Nice to know it’s not a dream anymore…”

"Still feels like it though, doesn't it?" He wrapped his arms tightly around her as if he was worried she might float away. "You're the best wife I could ask for J."

Cletus knocked on the door, having been gone for almost a year. When it opened, he smiled sheepishly. "Wanna go get Taco Bell?"

Justine jumped a bit as the door was knocked. “Coming!” She rushed to the door from the couch, thinking it was a package.

“…Cletus!?” She gasped.

Cletus knocked on the door, having been gone for almost a year. When it opened, he smiled sheepishly. "Wanna go get Taco Bell?"

Justine jumped a bit as the door was knocked. “Coming!” She rushed to the door from the couch, thinking it was a package.

“…Cletus!?” She gasped.

He opened his arms, tears quickly welling in his eyes. “Sorry I took so long this time Justine. You have no idea the scale of shitstorm I had to wade through.”

She jumped into his arms, tears going down her face. “It’s okay..I know you’ll always come back. You always have.”

He buried his face in her neck, barely able to stand from exhaustion, but she had waited so long for him to return, he at least owed her a decent length hug. “Are the kids awake?” He murmured, the tears coming freely now.

“Omnes is at a tournament for tennis and I think Tenshi is in her room, last time I checked.” She pulled him close, sighing. “They’ve missed you too. I know that.”

“Should I go say hello to Ten-Ten or just wait till Omnes gets home?” He offered, stroking her hair gently. Thoughts of the things he had had to do floated through his mind, but the thought of her drove them away.

“Whatever you’d like to do, love.” The blonde smiled and kissed his cheek. “I’m just glad you’re home.”

Sounds of pitterpatting feet could be heard nearby.

Cletus flushed, not entirely prepared. “Tenshi?” He called tentatively. “I’m home again honey.” He smiled. He hoped that the kids didn’t resent him for always having to leave.

The little one peeked around the corner. “C-Cletus?” She stammered, surprised and a little nervous. “Sweetie everything’s okay.” Her mother reassured.

The symbiote knelt down, his arms open for her. “Hey Ten-Ten! I’m finally home again!” He smiled, hoping she wouldn’t be upset. Children were unpredictable.

The child smiled a little, walking over gingerly and giving the man a hug. It was like she was dreaming, that he was really back, and she didn’t quite know how to handle it. Justine smiled softly.

He wrapped her up tightly, still crying happily. “Oh how I missed you little one.” He let her go for a moment, reaching into his backpack. He retrieved a small doll. “I got this for you from Japan.” He smiled.

“I’ve missed you too..” She tears up as she looks up at him. “Thank you.” She took the doll and admired it quietly. “Are you hungry love?” The taller blonde asked.

He nodded, the pack shifting slightly to reveal a well sealed vial of purple goop. He quickly zippered the bag, turning even whiter than normal. “Don’t worry about that Tenshi. That’s a present for your mother.” He explained.

She went off into the kitchen, not seeeing the exchange. Tenshi looked up at him confusingly. “Okay….”

Cletus patted her head. “Come on, you wanna grab some food sweetie?” He stood, pulling the bag back around his shoulders and walking to the kitchen.

She nods. “Where there bears on unicycles this time?” The small one held the doll as she started to walk to the kitchen. “Please tell me there wasn’t any.”

“No there wasn’t any Bears. But there was this really bad man who fought people using music.” He picked her up, setting her on the counter. “Can you imagine that? One of my favorite things and I had to fight it.”

“Interesting.” She looked up at him. “Was he the phantom of the opera?” Justine giggled at the comment.

“I wish he was, would have been a lot easier of a fight.” He chuckled. “Tenshi, I know I just got home and all, but could I have a minute to talk to your mama?”

She nods, using her light to get off the counter and out of the room. Justine looked through the pantry for something to make.

Cletus looked at his wife, and took a deep breath. “Justine, do you want a normal life forever?” He asked, trying not to sound too nervous.

“Where is this coming from?” She asked, looking over her shoulder and turning around.”You know being a fairy like me, its never normal.”

He took the vial from his bag. The goop was shifting, turning, and occasionally moving as if alive. “This is the Scorn symbiote. I retrieved it from one of the SHIELD labs. If you want to, as soon as this symbiote touches your skin, you can have the same powers I have.” He explained blankly.

Justine tensed slightly as she watched the goop. “ Okay…but I think being a fairy is just enough…”

She looked to him worriedly.

“If you say no, I’ll bring it back to SHIELD and the opportunity will most likely never come up again. If you say yes, I can teach you how to control her. You can become a hero like me.” He shrugged. “The choice is yours.”

“But I am a hero, you’ve just never seen it. I don’t know how this will react with my magic. It could be lethal to myself and everyone around me. I don’t want to go through that again. I don’t want another little girl dying at my hands.” Her eyes went dark, as her mind started to reel about the moment.

He took a few steps forward and hugged her. “That’s fine. It’s okay.” He cooed, stroking her hair. “I love you Justine.”

She hugged him tight. “I still have nightmares about it.” Tears came and went,as they always did as she thought about it. “I love you too. Just the way you are.”

He found himself lost in his thoughts, face in her hair. He thought back to his mother’s death. He remembered murdering his father. He remembered who he used to be. And then he remembered that he beat those demons.

Justine sniffled. Being a young girl and being a host to a dark entity wasn’t the best childhood. She still remembered the look of the little girl’s sister, the crowd around her when she came to, and the branding of being a monster. Eventually she was separated from the horrible thing, but she felt so guilty.

Two broken pieces to a puzzle. That’s how Cletus always saw himself and his wife. Two very much broken people who fit together perfectly. “I’m sorry if I worried you…”

“It’s okay.” She rested her head on his shoulder. At least in his embrace she could calm down and think in the moment. Something she couldn’t do for a long while.

“Sometimes I feel like this thing is a curse, but then I remember all the good I’ve done since and…” He looked down at his hand, the symbiote covering it in red, his fingers turning to claws. “It feels better sometimes to just ignore it.”

She planted a kiss on his cheek. “But think about it. We probably wouldn’t have met then.” Justine spoke, cuddling up to him. “…and honestly I don’t know what I’d do without you, Cletus.”

He blushed slightly pink. “Yeah, you’re right. I’m just glad you didn’t meet me before I found this thing. I was even more of a monster back then.”

She cupped his cheek in her hand. “I’m sure I would have fell for your charms and your southern accent anyway. ” A smile adorned her features as she rubbed his cheek with her thumb.

His hand turned back to normal, holding her wrist gently. “And I would have…” He trailed off, looking away. “Sometimes I wonder if I really am okay…” He murmured.

She blushed gently as her wrist was grabbed. “You’ve gone through a lot, love. You won’t heal completely as it never happened.” Justine spoke softly, looking. up at him. “That’s completely okay with me.”

His hand slowly turned symbiotic, the red form flowing over his skin, turning it cool to the touch. “The reason the symbiote I brought home even exists is because I asked Carnage to make one for you. It’s based off of all my thoughts and memories of you.” He explained, not breaking eye contact.

She nods, shivering a bit as the carnage symbiote held her wrist. “You did?” Her heart started to pick up pace, but she smiled.

He nodded, a small smile growing on his face. "Yeah. Her name is Scorn because all symbiotes have to have weird, violent sounding names apparently."

Cletus knocked on the door, having been gone for almost a year. When it opened, he smiled sheepishly. "Wanna go get Taco Bell?"

Justine jumped a bit as the door was knocked. “Coming!” She rushed to the door from the couch, thinking it was a package.

“It’s okay.” She rested her head on his shoulder. At least in his embrace she could calm down and think in the moment. Something she couldn’t do for a long while.

“Sometimes I feel like this thing is a curse, but then I remember all the good I’ve done since and…” He looked down at his hand, the symbiote covering it in red, his fingers turning to claws. “It feels better sometimes to just ignore it.”

She planted a kiss on his cheek. “But think about it. We probably wouldn’t have met then.” Justine spoke, cuddling up to him. “…and honestly I don’t know what I’d do without you, Cletus.”

He blushed slightly pink. "Yeah, you're right. I'm just glad you didn't meet me before I found this thing. I was even more of a monster back then."
