PART TWO!

Kid fic/parent fic dialogue prompts

Teenager: "How did you grow up so fast? Yesterday you were still my little baby..."

Characters: Team Chaotix❤️

2020 momento LOL

Di tutte le cose che possiamo recuperare dal 2020, penso che Scorpio sia il fattore più piacevole, secondo solo ai Destiel LMAO also I know the prompt is technically for teenagers but I had the most DARLING kid idea so........

Kid fic/parent fic prompts

The cake looks like shit.

Granted, it was all they could afford in the shop, aside from straight up stealing, and the Chaotix don't steal, so there wasn't really any choice, but that doesn't make it look any less like shit. It's lopsided and a bit banged up, which is probably the reason why it was on such a steep sale, and the frosting is of a dangerously neon color that promises endless hours of sugar rush.

And still, it is cake, and they managed to snatch it, so that ought to count for something. Besides, it's not like Charmy seems to care - he's too busy bouncing in excitement at the thought of dessert and celebration to notice just about anything else regarding the whole business. In fact, Vector can barely hold him back while Espio lights the candle on top, lest they set fire to the whole house and have to pay even more money.

"Sit down, kid," the crocodile grumbles, his grip tightening around the handful of bee he has to keep in place. "You're gettin' too big for this, I'm gonna have to put you on a leash soon. When did you grow so much, by the way? Weren't you still a little baby yesterday or something?"

"No!" Charmy protests, though he's still giggling in amusement. "I'm not a baby! I'm a real detective, and I want the first slice of cake! It's my birthday!"

"Uh. Are you sure? Can't really believe it."

"I can," Espio mutters, putting off the used matchstick. "He eats nearly as much as you do, and that is a feat."

Vector should probably feel offended, but a part of him is genuinely amazed that they even got to this point, so he's too distracted to care much. They didn't just manage to keep the kid alive all these years, which is already a bloody miracle - it's the fact that said years seem to have basically flown by that stuns him the most, to be quite honest. In his mind, it's not so long ago that Charmy was screaming the house down while teething, or learning to fly with a fretful Espio at his heels.

And yet, the boy he's holding right now is strong and brave and yeah, maybe reckless, too, but that can't really be helped, with the life they lead. He's still small, but he has grown so much he might as well be a different bee.

It's a shocker. But it's also the best stroke of luck they've ever had, all things considered.

So Vector lets go of him, and watches as Charmy blows the candle with only minimal worry about the lad's wings catching on fire, and for once, everything's right in the world.

"Happy birthday, Charmy. Can't wait to see what this real big detective has in store, heh?"

Hi!! Sorry for this, but I have a question: is it aro-culture, wanting to be in a romantic relationship with someone and not wanting that at the same time? Because i feel conflicted. Mostly I don’t want a romantic relationship, but sometimes i feel the pull of it, and i get so sad…

i just wanted your opinion on this, hope you dont mind me asking

hi,

this is from a while ago, but there's absolutely microlabels in the aro community for this experience! i'd recommend looking into cupioromantic, bellusromantic, romo aro, and romance favorable aromantic labels.

ECCOCI QUA

Noticing Trauma sentence starters:

"When you look at the Blue Fairy, you start shivering, like you're about to be sick. Why is that?” 

Relationship: Pinocchio-Geppetto (Piccolino no Bouken please❤️)

Have fun!

When you're in a competition for enablers and your opponent is Freenklin <3 thank you I enjoyed making Geppetto a clueless, unreliable narrator (but not the way August is, because I love August and I hate PNB Geppetto)

Noticing trauma prompts

The boy behaves so well, sometimes it's almost like he's not there at all.

It has given Geppetto a remarkable number of scares, admittedly. Even a few months in, and longer still since Pinocchio last gave him the slip, he can't shake off the thought that every delay and every quiet moment might mean the child has run away again. It's hard to believe someone could have changed so much - especially someone like Pinocchio, who looked irredeemable from the moment he came alive.

And still, it seems that a miracle has occurred. The boy goes to school and comes straight back, does all his homework and helps around the house, and eats everything that's put on the table without making a single comment - his face contorts momentarily, at times, when he puts vegetables in his mouth, but he remains quiet and grateful. That's the kind of transformation every man hopes for, when talking about their unruly charges.

At least, that's what Geppetto thinks. He's beyond happy, himself, and loves this respectable, peaceful life they've built for themselves more than anything in the world. He congratulates Pinocchio for his growth often, and thanks the fairy every change he gets, every time she stops by to see how the boy is faring.

He'd wish for these visits to be more frequent, if not for one detail: when they hear the lady's carriage rattling up the path to their house, Pinocchio gets more than quiet. He freezes.

It's hard to notice if one's not looking directly at him. It was only a coincidence that Geppetto became aware of it the first time, certainly. But since then, the old man's been paying attention, and the sight of it brings him pause.

He knows, by now, which habits the child has left over from the puppet, the way his legs swing when he's sitting, the careful gestures around his nose, but once the fairy enters the cottage, they disappear completely. Geppetto is welcoming and fretful, and Gina chatters happily for hours on end, but Pinocchio goes as still as a statue on his chair, only speaking when he's spoken to.

Politeness is a blessing, in their household, but this is also such a bewildering switch that it's difficult to understand why it would happen. It's not like the fairy is acting rudely, after all; she is soft-spoken and gentle, as she always is, prone to small smiles and kind touches. One couldn't hope for a better guest.

And yet, it keeps happening. Geppetto bears it for as long as he can, but one night curiosity gets the best of him, and once the lady has departed, he lets Gina waddle off to bed and puts a hand on Pinocchio's shoulder to stop him from following her.

"Say, my boy," he ventures, not unkindly, "you always get in a terrible state when the good fairy visits you- why, you look like you're about to be sick! Why is that? Do her talking animals frighten you?"

He'd meant it good-naturedly, almost as a joke, but Pinocchio's wide-eyed gaze near suffocates all of his amusement. The boy doesn't look like him - he barely looks like himself, from before he was turned - but there's something in his expression that reminds Geppetto of his own reflection in the mirror or in still water, back when he was at his most frightened, worrying himself sick over an ungrateful puppet.

The boy looks terrified. He looks like a fawn caught into a trap, and when he answers his voice is barely above a yelp, too. "I don't know," he says. "I'm sorry. I'll be more careful. Can I go to sleep, now?"

And Geppetto can't help but let him, can't do anything but watch him scurry away, with no more knowledge than he had before, and in fact more puzzled than ever. Should he be concerned? Should he pry with the fairy, to see if he'd get a more reasonable response?

Ah, it's probably not worth it. Pinocchio will grow out of it, no doubt, like he did with the rest of his bad habits.

Hello bestie! 1, 13 or 21 from the casual affections ask, for August and Emma (platonic affection of course) please :))))

NOI A STORYBROOKE LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOO

Casual Affections Prompts

Smiling at each other from across the room

Emma's phone vibrates in her pocket just as her mother reaches the apex of her rant, her voice raising one octave more.

She's not quite sure what said rant might be about, actually, but at this point it's too late to stop the other woman and ask, at least without risking Snow White's wrath. Emma has lost the plot too long ago to even begin making an educate guess - something her father has done wrong, probably. She'd rather not know, to be honest, and by the time she surreptitiously pulls out her phone to check on it she's just about ready to make up an excuse to leave altogether.

However, the new message she finds manages to temporarily distract her from her woes - she taps it open, and feels herself frowning in puzzlement at the content, despite her efforts to keep a blank expression.

Nod some more, you don't look very convinced.

She looks up to scan the room, and within seconds she manages to spot the culprit, sitting at a table on the opposite side of Granny's. August smiles when she meets his gaze, and puts down his phone to raise his coffee cup to her, in a mockery of a toast.

Emma snorts under her breath, and glances down again momentarily, shooting a quick text back. Sorry if I'm not as good at pretending as you.

The response is immediate, if even more cheeky. Harsh. Weren't you supposed to be one of the nice guys?

Yeah, when I have some patience left.

Want an excuse to get out of here?

She raises her gaze, visibly confused. August arches his eyebrows and inclines his head to the side, almost as if to say, well?

Emma debates the pros and cons for all of a second, then nods, discreetly but wearily. Not a moment later her phone is vibrating up a storm in her hand, the incoming call screen lighting up so bright even her mother notices and stops mid-word, distracted - it's clear she wants to ask who it might be, but Emma doesn't give her the time to, instead pushing herself up and arranging her face in something approaching an apologetic look.

"Sorry, Mom- I'll be right back, I've got to take this-"

She only presses the accept button once she's stridden away, the door to Granny's closing behind her back, so she doesn't have to conceal the gratitude in her voice. "You're a bad influence," she says, grinning. "I owe you a drink."

She can hear August laughing on the other end, entirely too satisfied with himself for someone who's just taken part in a ploy to fool the legendary Snow White.

"Sounds like a plan," he replies, fondly.

"You're welcome, by the way. Now you just need to make up some emergency to explain why you rushed out- one that doesn't involve me, preferably. I've already done my part."

10 Facts About My Characters: Vector please :)))

Since we have never been able to have a sensible conversation about Vector ever, I have chosen to interpret this as freenklin asking about Vector in my Belle is adopted by the Chaotix AU, because it's honestly funnier that way

Also pinging @seagull-laugh because it's likely some of these ideas are stuff we discussed together but my memory is fucking unreliable sorry baby

Ask me 10 things about one of my characters

even though deep down he knows Belle doesn't need to eat he'll try to feed her constantly because his nurturing instinct is stronger than logic

he'll let the kids listen to his music when they need to calm down but he also has stuff on hand that he's sure they like for less stressful situation

speaking of music he probably does that very parent-like thing of sitting in the car with the radio on for a while before actually going into the house since children are exhausting and he needs to recharge

Espio is the one to go to for bedtime stories usually, but Vector is better because he's DramaticTM and does the voices

(this one was Hollie's first for sure but) yeah he definitely takes Belle to Tails for a check up after every minor inconvenience, even just a screw coming loose, because WHAT IF WE'RE UNDERESTIMATING IT KID?

on the other hand he would refuse to let her help with anything that needs repairing around the house, even though she was literally MADE for that, because he doesn't want to endanger her; however a) Espio likely set him straight after five minutes b) she looks the type of girl to try to do it when Vector's not looking lmao

he did set her loose in Don and Nite's radio station, though, one of those times he and Espio dropped Charmy off to have some alone time. Nite likes her more than he does Charmy because she has a good eye for the mechanics of his job and she is also A LOT quieter than her bee brother friend

he takes the kids on little investigative field trips that have little to no impact on actual cases to hone their detective skills and keep them out of the house

don't let Sonic X fool you. He can't be trusted to go get groceries alone. He WILL forget shit and mistake toothpaste for mayonnaise. He will.

he roughhouses with Charmy every now and then but after some "incidents" the amount of times it happens went down drastically and they only do it OUT OF THE HOUSE

Late night chats, a cat stepping onto unfinished work, the split second of hesitation when someone asks what your name is, running for so long the only thing you can hear is blood pounding in your ears, hoping your old acquaintance won't recognize you when you cross their path on the sidewalk, "say hi to your father for me".
