What is your preferred juicing method?

Something along this way, just tubes everywhere vibrating and sucking making the blueberry in question very flustered, embarrassed, and turned on. I think my favorite visual example though is the sequence piece by Villaru called Hubris. The animated juicing sequence always has me feeling a sort of way. Damn I wish this was me!!

Hiiii

What would be the cause of avid finally confessing to pyro? Does it have to with pyro getting almost killed by the holy water or somethin else?

One very important question

“If the vampiric part of him dies (like being staked) I'm sure it would let itself be known again..”

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!? WILL AVID DIE AND JUST TRAUMATISE HIS FRIENDS AND SEND PYRO INTO A BLIND RAGE?!?

Also gotta love the cowboy gettup pyro and avid has, both are slaying. 

Did avid and pyro coven kill Louis? What happened and do they know about Louis’ death?

Also just have to say I would kill for truffle.

Also also HELP ever since “the stupid ass ship chart” my brain can't stop thinking of pyro using avid as a battery ram against the humans.

Also how's the town doing?

And would the vampires try to desecrate the beacons? How long does it take for them to start desecrating them?

Also thank you for answering all my questions!!!!!

Living up to his namesake.

OK SO IVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS ASK FOR A GOOD FEW DAYS. the confession ended up Too Long, so I uploaded it on AO3! my very first one on there, here's the link:3 !! and I'll answer the rest of the questions under the cut

Avid manages to get out of Oakhurst without being staked, but it's not clear sailing for them after they leave!! They've got their old coven still trying to bring them to justice, and vampire hunters are still a threat. And yeah, I don't think Pyro would take to see Avid dying in front of him TOO well....

Avid and Pyros coven DID kill Louis, since the Sire didn't appreciate his whole "love the humans" thing happening so close to their territory, and Louis definitely argued back, not willing to bend on his morals. And any form of dissent had to be dealt with.

Pyro would most likely know more than Avid, and anything Avid knows would be whatever Pyro told him and snippets the Sire bragged out. Neither were involved in the actual act or the decision making: Pyro dealt with record keeping and estates and Avid was basically just entertainment. Whether or not Owen believes this is a whole other issue.

The town is doing VERY well in this au. There's no paranoid Avid driving a wedge between people, and they have a lot of organised, knowledgeable people. They're ALSO not losing a whole lot of people vampirism, so they have the numbers. But you also shouldn't underestimate the coven.

They would start desecrating beacons once they've been driven out of town, taking the castle one and trying to keep a few closer ones. I'd say while the town keeps a majority of the beacons consecrated, the coven causes a lot of issues by continuously making them neutral at the same time.

And no problem!!! Thank YOU for asking and for caring about this au it means so much 🥹🥹 I'm always so happy to answer questions even if it takes me a bit

[sukuna-dees-nuts]

this is for @nessieartss!! based on this (it was me that asked, surprise) and also the first part of this art

i hope you enjoy!! older brother sukuna lives rent free in my brain right now and i love him being a bastardman

---

“Ay, what the fuck was that?!” Sukuna shouts as Yuuji cackles in glee. His character races into first place, winning the Grand Prix. Sukuna' goes from first place to fourth. “You threw a red shell right after a blue shell! That's fucking cheating!”

Yuuji shrugs, lounging back against the couch and drops the controller next to him. “Don't hate the player, hate the game,” he says with a grin and pulls out his phone. “Those dishes aren't gonna wash themselves.”

Sukuna grunts as he tosses the controller onto the coffee table. “I hate both the player and the game.”

“And the game hates you!” the younger boy calls out after his brother's retreating figure.

Turning his attention back to his phone, Yuuji’s grin melts into a soft smile when he sees Yuko's name on a Snapchat notification. He glances over his shoulder to make sure that Sukuna is still in the kitchen before tapping on the notification. It won't be anything inappropriate, but he knows for a fact that if Sukuna saw that his younger brother was texting a girl, Yuuji wouldn't hear the end of it. 

The Snapchat shows a picture of a latte with the classic tulip foam art and a caption that reads: ‘I think I'm finally getting the hang of this latte foam art!’

Yuuji holds his phone out to take a picture of himself, giving Yuko a big smile and a thumbs up. 

‘That's so good!! Ur a professional now. If I ordered one, would u make me a cat???’

“Yo! Can I put this cast iron pan in the dishwasher?” Sukuna asks from the kitchen. He waits for a response and gets nothing. “I’m about to put this pan in the dishwasher!” Again, no response. Rolling his eyes, Sukuna makes his way back out to the living room. “Dude, if this pan gets ruined, it’s gonna be your fault—”

Sukuna cuts himself off when he catches sight of a picture of a girl on his little brother’s screen. Immediately, he reaches over the couch and snatches the phone out of Yuuji’s hand. “Oh! Who is this?” he gasps, bringing the screen closer to his face for a better look. “Do you have a girlfriend little bro?”

“Hey!” Yuuji scrambles, turning around to lean over the back of the couch in an attempt to grab his phone back. Sukuna places his hand on Yuuji’s forehead, keeping him at arm’s length as he looks over the picture. “Give me back my phone!”

Smacking Sukuna’s arm away, Yuuji vaults over the back of the couch and decides to try and wrestle his phone back from his brother. It doesn’t work, however. The two grapple for a few moments and the next thing Yuuji knows, Sukuna has his arm wrapped around his brother’s neck, holding him in a firm headlock. It isn’t enough to hurt him, but it’s enough to keep him from trying to escape, knowing that it’s futile. 

“Who is she, huh?” Sukuna presses as he slides Yuuji’s phone into his pocket and begins rubbing his knuckles on the top of Yuuji’s head. 

“I’m not gonna tell you!” Yuuji laughs, trying in vain to smack Sukuna’s hand away from his head. 

“Well, I’m not letting you go until I get some answers,” the older boy states, rapping his knuckles against Yuuji’s forehead. Then he pinches Yuuji’s nose. 

Weighing his pros and cons, Yuuji relents. “Okay, okay! I’ll tell you! Just let me go.”

Sukuna snorts. “Nah, if I let you go right now, you’ll just try to punch me and I won’t get what I asked for.”

Yuuji groans. His brother knows him too well. “Her name is Yuko. She’s just a friend. I haven’t asked her out… yet,” he grumbles the last word.

Satisfied, Sukuna releases his hold on his brother and hands Yuuji's phone back. 

In the midst of the struggle, Sukuna hadn’t noticed his own phone had fallen out of his pocket. It dings and Yuuji is the first to snatch it off the ground, curious to see who would be texting Sukuna. His jaw drops at the name displayed on the lock screen.

Sukuna quickly plucks his phone from Yuuji’s hand and goes back to the kitchen as Yuuji shouts after him, “Dude, why is Megumi texting you? And why is there a heart next to his name?!”

anemic but not a loser

Ships: Nico/Will

Summary: A series of events that occur after Nico faints one morning, unaware he has anemia. Will is does everything in his power to change that fact.

Notes: Medical procedures, descriptions of fainting, needles, and trypanophobia

Whole fic is here but the first chapter is under the cut

Chapter 1: falling for you

Will yawned, squinting at Nico’s frail figure as he stumbled out of Will’s bed, probably for the bathroom next door. He smiled, eyes closing as he drifted in and out of sleep.

Nico and Will had only been dating for a few weeks, but it was amazing watching Nico become more comfortable around him, and, as of last week, they’d started sleeping in the same bed. Their hot and cold body temperatures complemented each other well, and Nico admitted it stopped a fair few of his nightmares, which Will was totally normal about.

Nico had been admitting more things as of late, but there was one thing Will just couldn’t get him to budge on: his health.

Nico had always been on the fragile side, with dark eye bags and a bag-of-bones physique. Nothing a good diet and absence of shadow travel couldn’t fix, right? 

Wrong. Nico had maybe gained a little healthy weight, but he still had chronic brainfog, got dizzy in training, lost his vision when standing up, and spaced out often—to the point he’d ask Will to repeat sentences he knew for sure Nico had heard. 

And the list of symptoms in Will’s brain kept growing.

He was worried, to say the least. They’d gotten into a sort of fight last night over Nico’s stupid belief that he “wasn’t that sick”. Will had watched in horror as Nico’s shell cracked back into place before storming out of the infirmary to give himself space from the healer. 

Thankfully, later in the night, he felt Nico’s gaunt body settle beside him, and everything was alright again.

A series of loud bangs sounded from the next room over, breaking Will out of his daze. He sat up, rubbing at his eyes. Had Austin accidentally knocked over his alarm when pressing snooze again? He shrugged, laying back down and returning to his daydreaming.

—————

Nico’s vision swam as he mindlessly walked into the bathroom, not even glancing at his reflection.

And then the ground was swept from underneath him, his feet leaning inwards and outwards as he tried to regain his balance. He swayed back and forth, limbs flailing, pawing for anything to grab onto. His pupils widened, blinking rapidly before he promptly collapsed, slamming the side of his head against the wall.

Just as suddenly as it had happened, it stopped, and Nico shook as if he’d been pulled out of the depths after drowning.

What just happened? How had he gotten here? Where was here?

One thought prevailed through the noise. Where was Will?

Nico lurched out of the bathroom, panic searing through him. He needed Will.

He searched aimlessly, tripping, hands shaking at a random door handle in blind terror, but it wouldn’t budge. His head ached, panging in a hollow way as his breath staggered.

Nico let out a hysterical whimper as he sought solace to no avail. Finally, his eyes caught on familiar socked feet, poking off of a familiar bed. He breathed a sigh of relief, quivering as he struggled to run towards Will.

“Will,” Nico sobbed, leaning on the doorway as cold tears streamed down his face in an instant. “I don’t know what happened, I–” He gulped down another shallow breath, staring at his boyfriend’s blurry, confused face. “I couldn’t stand, my–my head hit the wall.” Nico’s palm found his aching cheekbone as Will sprang to a stand.

“Oh, honey.” He took Nico in his arms, sitting them down on the bed. “Gods, was that noise you?”

Nico nodded. “I didn’t trip over or anything.” His lower lip trembled. “My vision was gone.”

Will rubbed away a tear, tender. “You must have fainted, darling.”

“I’m that sick?” Nico gasped. It made sense, but only really ill people fainted, right? Not to mention, he was so zoned out that he didn’t even know who he was or why he was walking into that bathroom. It was terrifying how quickly that could happen.

Will held his face in his hands. “Looks like it.” His gaze softened as he pulled Nico closer. “That must have been so scary.”

“It really was. I don’t even remember going in there. All I knew was that I needed you.” Despite it all, Nico was slowly calming down in Will’s presence, now understanding what happened, though not why.

“Oh, Precious. I’m sorry I wasn’t there.” Will pulled away, grabbing both of Nico’s hands. “I hate to say it, but I think all these symptoms are pointing to a bigger issue.”

Nico shuddered. “Well, I don’t want it to happen again. How do we fix it?”

Will tugged Nico to the middle of the bed, tucking him in. “Don’t worry, we’ll figure that out later. For now, let’s get some food into you.” Will stood, kissing Nico’s forehead. “Rest, please. Eggs okay?”

—————

Nico got up slowly, being gentle with himself as he walked towards the big house kitchen to see two sunnyside eggs. He giggled a bit, seeing them positioned on the toast like eyes with a tomato sauce smile.

Will enveloped him in a hug from behind. “That’s the face I make when I see you too.”

“A goofy lil’ grin?” Nico cackled when Will nodded dumbly. He winced as the feeling in the back of his head got worse, like how it feels when you change altitudes falling through the air. “I don’t want to feel like this forever.”

Will frowned, sympathy gathering in his eyes at the change in mood. “And you won’t. I have my suspicions about what’s wrong. We’ll figure this out.” He squeezed him tighter, careful around his face.

Nico smiled softly, “I trust you.” He took a bite of toast. “You make good eggs.”

“I’m a man of many talents.” Will chuckled, but he tilted his head in thought a second later.

“What is it?” Nico asked, curious.

“How do you feel about needles?”

i hope you enjoyed!! you can find the rest here

take care of yourself!!!

I did something crazy!

I did the @tf-bigbang this year! It was my first long form writing project and I'm so proud of myself!

Here is the first sneak peek of my 12 chapter story!

"But then came the court. Endless sessions with ministers and generals, all trying to carve off more power, more credit, more blood. Every word was a dagger hidden in a velvet glove, and Megatron had to smile through it, his tail twitching behind him like a predator barely leashed.

He needed peace. Even just a moment. A breath.

~~The mortal~~ The human, was supposed to be in his room, resting. The stubborn little creature had been unconscious when Megatron found him on that altar, barely alive. Megatron hadn’t meant to keep him. But the longer he was there, pale and curled under thick blankets, eyes occasionally cracking open just long enough to glare something had shifted in Megatron's chest.

He didn’t even know the human’s name."
