Kaaat can I get some YOU AND VANILLA ICE LORE PLEASE?
1.) SORRY TO KEEP YOU WAITING THIS LONG I’M CRCYUFJF
2.) i've been sitting here thinking "how much lore is too much lore?" like i don’t just wanna drop EVERYTHING so i’ll try my best not to ramble 😳
also THANK YOU for asking i get so excited whenever someone gives me an excuse to talk about them
okokok so first off i have to mention my s/i, d. shay, because their references go together — she’s named after rapper vanilla ice’s dj in the 90s, dj deshay, and i don’t mean to brag but i think that’s a massive 200iq big brain idea okay carrying on hxjskd
adding a cut for length 👉👈
i’m condensing a lot but: shay is from miami and was in a ‘gang’ before she killed the leader, obviously panicked not wanting to go to jail so she decided that fleeing the damn country was the best plan and that’s why she’s in egypt ;w; …i haven’t exactly figured out a way for her to stay in the mansion without dio turning her into a capri sun but i’ll do that eventually hxjdndm
anyway finally getting to what you actually asked me orz
so she met vanilla by accident while terence was trying to show her around after meeting dio – she wasn’t paying attention to where she was going and walked right into him, and because she was so on edge she straight up just threatened him to watch where he’s going (even tho it was her that wasn’t paying attention) and was like trying to fight him while terence is just there like GIRL NO
she didn’t come off as very threatening tho because she’s so tiny (height comparison below but i mean tiny), she was like an angry chihuahua if anything JCXJJX
she calmed down later obviously but she has a night terror that night about the gang, suffering from them frequently. after waking up from it, she attempts to sneak around to find a balcony or a window or somewhere that she can sit outside and smoke, but instead she runs into vanilla while he’s like,, stalking the halls or whatever tf he does there all day as soon as she opens her door, nearly having a heart attack when she peeked out into the hallway and saw him there. “oh god, you’re not here to fight are you..?”
they’re both like “what are you doing 🤨” and shay tries to explain but basically just word vomits and apologizes at least 7 times for being so unhinged earlier. she asks if she can tag along with him bc somebody to talk to is the next best thing but of course he just sighs, telling her he doesn’t have time for that. she’s basically like “well you do now :)))” and tags along after him anyway — eventually throughout the night they start chatting, she tells him why she’s on the run and he’s the first person to really listen to her ;;
that happens a few times before eventually he starts waiting for her outside her door, opening up to her a little about himself, mentioning how most people in the mansion are afraid of him, he even shows her cream - she’s not scared of it. in fact shay was the first one to really treat him like an equal, not out of fear of him or his stand, but because she could, and she wanted to 🥺
there’s still some bits and pieces i need to fill in but i hc that they both suck with recognizing their feelings/emotions so everything kinda came to a head at once but that’s a lore dump for another day, i don’t wanna make this too long, so i’ll cut it off here but somebody remind me and i’ll post the rest someday 👉👈
there’s also,, the whole thing about vanilla’s enmeshment with dio that i’m,, not entirely sure how to work around yet? and i mean i hc him with like the worst past ever but that’s another bridge to cross later cjskkxkx
also i just wanted an excuse to post this gif that started as an extremely rough sketch that i colored for some reason and got stupidly attached to but this post seems like the best place to post it jfjxkdkd
like i said there’s SO much more but i’m not good with keeping track of lore and i don’t wanna spam everything rn but they love each other dearly 💜
Omg I knew Tom was gonna show up in one of these answers and ur absolutely right that a cartoon cat next to a VERY serious depressed dilf in his 40s must be very jarring, but I can't help it I love them both so much 🥺💖🥺💖🥺
We're new mutuals, and so rite of passage for me is please can I have some lore for whichever ship you're thinking of!! >w<
ALRIGHT SO! I had to think very hard about which ship I wanted to talk about, and my boyfriend suggested I talk about my ship with Polnareff and Avdol!!
So in my everyone lives AU, I have the idea that Avdol and I go back to France with Polnareff, we all end up getting married to each other, and go live on a big ass farm in the countryside. My S/I ends up having a daughter named Beth with Polnareff, and twin daughters named Shandi and Christine with Avdol! I haven’t decided too much about their stands yet, except Beth is going to have a healing stand named Dr. Love! Still deciding on Shandi and Christine’s stands!
We also bring Iggy with us and he keeps an eye on the chickens we keep! He’s also very protective of the girls too. But honestly I just adore the idea of the three of us having a pretty quiet and peaceful life, and from time to time Joseph, Jotaro and Kakyoin visit us with Jolyne (btw my S/I is related to the Joestars as a distant cousin, but all my JJBA S/Is are related to the Joestars in some way except for the one I need to develop to put with Lisa Lisa), and eventually Josuke and Giorno and all them because. Family.
Also my S/I is VERY motherly over the part 4 and 5 characters- she’s very family oriented, even if she’s not related to them. She treats Josuke and Giorno’s friends as if they were her family as well, and sees Kakyoin as a younger brother. Jotaro and Joseph are distant cousins to her, but she has a sibling type relationship with Jotaro and affectionately refers to Joseph as her uncle!
Now, this is is for the everyone lives AU. The canon verse I have for her is very sad and tragic, and I can go into it at a later date, but tbh I have so much stuff planned for my JJBA S/Is it’s all very… incoherent. I just need to sit down and actually write everything out.
Hannah I just wanted to say I'm reading New Moon from the beginning and LOVING it your writing is so good!! I've been so busy I haven't had a chance but Im catching up and I'M INTO THIS
aa thank you!! im super glad to hear that youre enjoying it so much!
