✅ : what do they pretend to have together that they don't?

I think Robin has to do a lot of faking it until he makes it. There's no doubt that he's actually not fine at all. He suffers from PTSD from being in the holylands. Severe enough that they sent both him and much home. I think he tries very hard to prove that he's fine and that he's still the same Robin somewhat from when he left but really he did come home very changed and I don't think the merry men other than Much really knows that. Will and Marian though I do think have noticed a difference but Will doesn't call him up on it and I don't recall if Marian ever does but I think she would probably call him out on it.

🫥 : how often do they pretend to be fine to keep the peace?

I think petty things happen really often at camp. And Robin despite it all I do think is a little petty but since he's the leader and has to lead by example I do think he lets things slide to keep the peace just so Allan will maybe cop on and do the same thing (spoilers: he never does)

🔥 : what moment do they replay when they're ashamed?

Not getting to King Richard fast enough. I think he'll always carry that guilt with him no matter what and I think it weighs very heavily on him.

🚬 : what vice do they justify the most?

I think for every merry man he allows some kind of indulgence. Living in the forest is hard and within reason they can all have a little vice as a treat. I think maybe Djaq maybe whips them up a little something to take the edge off. Maybe something to smoke or just some kind of tonic to get them all a little intoxicated when alcohol is hard to come by.

💞 : do they separate sex and feelings, or blur them dangerously?

I think unless it's Will or Marian Robin is able to separate sex and his feelings. With those two especially, I think the lines got very blurred and messy for him. I think due to their history with him he's just not able to separate his feelings from the physical act.

🔪 : what would they do if survival demanded cruelty?

Robin's a very practical man and when push comes to shove if he has to kill someone he will. He didn't get though the holylands by being best friends with everyone. Robin though I think does try to keep casualties to minimum I think there's a lot of trauma around killing people and that's why he tries to solve things without killing people. But really if it was the only way I don't think he'd feel bad about doing what has to be done.

❛ you’re pulling your punches. ❜ (katie to marcus)

"Please, little old me? Pulling my punches? Maybe you're just getting better." Monkey teased as his fist connected to Katie's chest but didn't hurt her. This was just training, Marcus hadn't said he'd actually hurt Katie. If he was playing the role of Shifu Monkey to Katie his aim wasn't to hurt her. Katie tried connect a hit and Marcus blocked her with his arm. This was just hand to hand training he wasn't using Jingu Bang, he'd promised no weapons but he didn't promise not to use his powers.

Katie tried to connect another hit and a monkey fist connected with her stomach. She was leaving herself too open. Too eager to get a hit in on Monkey. Marcus plucked a hair while Katie was getting back in to position and blew it behind her creating a perfect Monkey clone. Things were about to go bananas.

As Katie tried one more time Marcus and his clone looked at each other and nodded. The clone's fist connected with Katie's back and Marcus' connected again with her stomach. "Whoops! What's this? Double trouble?" Monkey gave Katie a playful wink. "See you're so excited to actually smash my face in you didn't notice my very handsome twin sneaking up behind you. That's something we need to work on! You're not going to be able to rely on your powers the whole time, trust me I know it's hard to believe but it's happened to me before. I know, I know you're about to say but Monkey you're so cool." his impression of Katie wasn't half bad.

"But It has happened at the worst of times so you have to be ready to put your fists up and defend yourself."

☕ : what's their morning ritual, and what happens when it's disrupted?

Luke is an early bird he's up early, he has his tea and toast and then he's ready to go do what ever tasks he has to do. I think when he's disrupted from his routine the whole day is just thrown off. This can be just waking up late and not having his tea and toast. I think he's a grumpy little man if he doesn't get his morning snack. It just throws the whole day off but not enough to cancel the whole day unless he's really tired or needs to stay in bed because he's sick.

🎉 : do they enjoy social events, or endure them?

Luke I think endures social events. I don't really think he enjoys being in parties or in big crowds of people his own age. I think this is just due to how he and Wren were raised and just in general I think Luke is misunderstood by the wider world due to being trans. I think in a canon verse there's less to worry about, he's still got dysphoria but there's bigger issues at hand there but in a modern au setting I think it effects him more socially. Kids are mean and Luke just kind of shrinks in on himself during social things unless Wren is with him to bring him out of it a little.

🕳️ : what do they spiral about at night?

Oh I think it depends on the night and what he's worried about. He's worried about Wrens safety or maybe he's worried about Wren liking a girl for the village more than him. Wren I think is a big thing he spirals over especially when they haven't started dating or when Wren is trying to act too much like a big hero like his dad.

🧬 : what did they inherit emotionally from their caregivers?

Luke I think takes after his mum the most in terms of his personality but I think he got a deep caring nature from his dad. Luke can be spunky and boisterous but when he deeply cares about something he cares about it with his entire being. He's a very sweet boy really.

🖊️ : do they write things down or let thoughts rot in their head?

I think Luke tries to write things down but he doesn't really have the luxury of being able to do that in a canon verse. I think in a modern verse though Luke totally has 60 journals that he just writes in and never looks at the pages again. Once something is on the page and out of his head he doesn't care about it any more (most of the time)

🛑 : what's an immediate turn-off for them?

Having his dysphoria triggered. It's sometimes not an immediate turn off if it's a genuine accident or it's something he just never considered but it's made him feel a little bit weird.

🧼 : what's something they're weirdly particular about being clean?

His work space and his lab and especially his hands. He works with some of the most poisonous and venomous substances known to man I think he's always double and triple checking that his hands are CLEAN even though he wears all the safety equipment I thing there's always a "what if" in the back of his head. I think he takes that kind of safety very seriously.

🎭 : how different are they with strangers versus people they trust?

I think he's actually quite serious when he's not among peers or their children. He is a world renowned herpetologist, I think when it comes to his professional life he's less jolly, still excited about his work but he's able to be professional about it. Among friends he's excited, he can;t help himself but to explain to his friends about his newest specimen and how cool it is. I think his friends make room for his obsession, or they even think it's very endearing. In the VFD especially I think he's very appreciated.

🩸 : what wound shaped them the most, even if they won't admit it?

I think he takes the deaths of Bertrand and Beatrice incredibly hard. He has that framed photo of the three of them inside the piano. He acts quite jolly to their kids when he meets them, but I do think he was incredibly heart broken. I think Bertrand and Monty's family were incredibly close, his sister does marry Bertrand's cousin so I tend to think those two especially were childhood friends.

☔️ : do they intellectualize pain instead of feeling it?

I think he's the intellecualise pain type of person. He's a scientist so he finds reasons and logical conclusions to things. I think being in the VFD helped shape that too. He comes to rational conclusions about the things that they have to do and it helps himself and maybe others to be at peace with it.

🎱 : what do they need to feel wanted?

Monty I think need someone who likes to listen. I don't think he could be with someone who wasn't excited about his work and doesn't want to hear about it. His reptiles are his pride and joy and he's tied so much of himself and his personality to his work that I think if you weren't willing to engage with him on it then you're not going to be dating him.

🩶 : what line have they already crossed and justified? or regret?

I think there's many lines that Monty has crossed and I don't really think he regrets any of them this was just how all of them were raised and trained. Being in the VFD and my headcanon is that he's their poison supplier I think he was the one that supplied the darts to kill Olaf's parents. I think he does ultimately regret that one specific plot but only because it's the one that got Bertrand and Beatrice eventually killed.

Hank looked down at the message on his phone. How was he supposed to address all of this? Was double texting acceptable and just how much pain medication was Paco on? How does Hank admit that he died when he went to avenge Pacos death. That was a conversation that needed to be had face to face and yet... Paco was admitting so many things just over text. He never really was the type of guy who could have those kinds of conversations face to face anyway. Maybe Hank should just text everything back.

"Hey, I died trying to avenge you I wasn't really murdered. I'm sorry." Send text. Hank let out as soft sigh.

@riffraffrabble asked:

i worked very hard, so... i deserve it! (pedro to bobby)

Bobby wasn't sure if Spidey had worked that hard, he'd actually done the hard job of icing up all the baddies while Spidey knocked them out. It was a team effort actually now that Bobby thought about it. They were sitting on a rooftop, eating a well deserved burrito from one of the food truck guys that frequented Queens.

"Yeah you do deserve this burrito this shit is hungry work." Though Bobby never felt hungry until the ice was gone. That was the thing about being made of ice, you didn't have any organs to worry about. It was a little perk of his mutation. He'd known Spidey for as long as he'd been in the X-men. They were in the same age bracket, Spidey being two years older than Bobby. All the young heroes who started out at their age kind of knew each other though Jean and Scott never really were friends in the same way that Spidey and Bobby were.

Bobby and Spidey just had more in common. They both liked math and they were queer. Queer young heroes naturally just kind of hung out together and stuck to each other like glue. Bobby assumed that Spidey had noticed his queerness right away. Before any of the other X-men did for sure. Spidey had always been so loud and proud when he was around Bobby it'd given a younger iceman more confidence in himself. He hadn't known very many gay heroes as a teenager.

"You know," Bobby said after swallowing a bite of his burrito. "I don't think these are as good as the guy who had that cart, remember him? We saved him when I was like seventeen and he gave us free burritos for months." He'd ended up opening a restaurant somewhere out in Brooklyn. "You think if we asked nicely he'd give us the recipe?"

‘  i’m the guy from the lady and the tramp who gives stray dogs pasta and stands in an alleyway playing an accordion for them  ’ (piotr to bobby)

Memes from my meme tag || Accepting

Piotr had really meant it when he said he'd never seen a Disney film. Bobby had took it upon himself to show his fellow teammate all of the classics. So far they've done all of his childhood favourites, Peter Pan, Sword in the Stone, The Black Cauldron, Lady and the Tramp and now as the Robin Hood tape rewinds in the VCR they ideally chat about the film they just watched. Bobby leaned up to engage in conversation.

There wasn't much of an age gap between them, Bobby and Piotr normally ended up hanging out together like this often. Bobby was older by a couple of years but Piotr's size made him look much other than gangly Bobby who often still got mistaken for a teenager when he wasn't iced up.

"You know, I could totally see you making spaghetti for two dogs in the alley. Guess that would make me the assistant chef." Bobby looked at Piotr's muscular form and was quite for a few minutes lost in thoughts he really shouldn't be thinking about Piotr. Oh yeah, he'd diffidently like to assist him in something. He snapped out of it. He needed to say something before he had to explain himself to Piotr who probably wouldn't appreciate that.

"You know one year for halloween I dressed up as Arthur. I had the scarf and everything. My mom cut my hair like his too."

🕰️ : what time do they naturally wake up when no one needs them?

I don't think there's anything natural about how Jean wakes up. Jean has a scheduled that has been drilled in to him since he was fourteen years old. It's the same one that Riko has drilled in to him. He wakes up when it's time for the Ravens to train and he goes to sleep when the ravens go to sleep. It's not a natural rhythm. It's one learned out of survival and I don't think he'll ever truly have a natural time to wake up that's actually his own. The raven training at the crack of dawn is etched deep in to him.

💀 : do they trust their own memories?

Jean trust his memories because that's really all he has left of a lot of things. That's what he has left of his sister. He as to trust that those are correct otherwise I think he'd spiral. As for post being sold to the ravens I think there's maybe a lot of gaps from trauma that have been filled in by his brain that maybe Jean shouldn't trust but not trust them maybe feels like he's lost power over himself. He's a young man who's suffered a lot of violence both physical and sexual. I think he holds on to what he can and trusts it but I think there is probably a lot of stuff he kind of has to guess what happened to him or what he did after.

🕶 : what lie do they tell themselves to survive?

I don't think Jean personally can lie to himself in an effort to keep himself surviving. He's a person who desperately wants to give up and the only thing keeping him alive is that he'd promise to stay alive. Now he has to survive even if he doesn't want to anymore. His existence is painful and miserable and yet he keeps going because he promised to. I think before he reached this point of no return he lied to himself about surviving to find his sister but I think deep down that he truly knew she was dead otherwise why would he reach the point of giving up like he did?

🕳️ : what habit would unravel them if taken away?

There's so many that I think he needs to unlearn. They're all unhealthy but I think scratching at his own neck is something that will make him spiral if he's made to stop. I thing gradually over time that Jean could kick that habit but he has so much trauma tied to it that he's going to need a lot of time to work through that.

🤲 : do they like being in control, or giving it up?

Jean likes being in control. He need to be in control actually and a partner just has to accept that Jean isn't able to give it up. Jean has had no control since he was fourteen. I don't think he'd ever consent to giving up control at all. I think that's probably the only way he'd ever be able to have intimacy with someone.

🧨 : what would make them snap permanently?

Betrayal of trust and broken promises. His trust has been betrayed and violated so many times and he's had so many promises broken on him. I think if he lets someone in again and he trusts them that if they break that trust that Jean has worked hard to build up then we're in breakdown territory.
