I would kill to have seen Robert absolutely freak the fuck out if Shroud kidnapped his SO and used them as a bargaining chip for the pulse. SO is slightly beaten up and shroud is just gloating.
I would love to know how Robert “god invented the left hook for a reason” Robertson would react.
If there is absolutely anything Robert Robertson does is care and give a shit. It’s his whole thing, that’s his brand!
So when you go missing at the start of his shift it nags in the back of his mind until he’s finally face to face with shroud. For you not to reply for hours wasn’t like you.
“It seems you don’t keep an eye on your things, Robert.”
“You loose my pulse for months, and loose track of your little boyfriend in just a few hours.”
Seeing you being held by your shirt collar by Shroud he almost looses it before he’s able to get his head back on straight. Other than a swollen cheek and some blood from your nose the only thing that hurt worse to see was the pure fear in your eyes.
Giving Shroud both pulses and finally having you in his arms again he’s twitching. Checking you over and holding your head into his chest like he’s trying to pull you into his body for protection.
The 50/50 fails and Robert sees his chance. He’s defended Blazers honor at the bar, now he gets to defend yours.
Shroud was beyond saving. To target innocent person for an almost 20 year old grudge was unforgivable. To destroy almost an entire town. No, there was no fixing this.
You didn’t do anything wrong, you just existed and made everything better. And you were punished for that.
Robert remembers the spike of pain in his knees when he tackled Shroud and fell to the floor. But nothing else.
Not the blood that dripped or the light leaving his eyes. If Robert tries he can remember a plea. One for mercy. One that wasn’t deserved.
What was clear in his memory is that he held you after. That you both cried and just stayed together for a moment as the sun started to rise.
I’m too lazy to get screenshots but I noticed this immediately when watching encanto just now and haven’t seen anyone else mention it. When the granny (I’m sorry I immediately forget everyone’s names) is having her flashback near the end of the movie there are three scenes just before the triplets are born that represent their gifts. The first one her and her husband are eating and laughing together (healing through food), the next they’re getting married on a super sunny and happy day (emotions control the weather) and then she cuts out those paper babies to show she’s having triplets in the future (predicting the future) !!! Did anyone else notice that? I thought it was such an interesting and cute detail
I haven’t posted in a little while but here’s an idea I’ve been rolling around 😭 based on my game where it’s my male body 2 teifling and I romanced Wyll. A friend pointed out how Wyll is like two feet away when Halsin asks if you wanna bang it out with him and as much as I laughed I wished so bad Wyll could join in
At first the idea made Wyll nauseous, sick to his stomach even. Halsin being in camp was nice, his charm and enthusiasm made for great conversations. As you moved closer to Baldurs Gate, Wyll found himself setting up by Halsin subconsciously. It just always seemed to happen.
It was comfortable at this point, being on the road so long anything becoming familiar is a godsend.
One night as Wyll sat and read he heard Halsin call for you, not wanting to be nosy he kept to his book. Just because he deemed you a lover didn’t mean you weren’t allowed to speak to other men! That would be ridiculous.
But this man was Halsin.
Halsin who was undeniably a hunk of a man. Whose honesty about attraction and sexuality was both open and alluring.
How his strength displayed itself when fighting. Along side you… how he’d heal you every chance he got.
He’s heard Halsin complement you before. But it wasn’t about what he said that itched at Wyll, when you’d walk away slightly flushed from the Druid—
It was what he didn’t say. How he left his intentions in the air, complementing you on your skill, your build, your bravery, your efforts. Things Wyll also loved about you.
What made his stomach flip was what he shouldn’t have heard. How Halsin praised you, how you’ve helped him and it’s made his heart soar. He especially shouldn’t have heard Halsin’s proposition for you.
To share a night together, skin on skin under the stars.
“I’ve already taken to someone Halsin. You do flatter me though.” You laughed, just letting the idea roll off your back so casually. But it was stone in Wylls mind. Halsin and you being intimate, getting to see your battle scared body.
The same scars Wyll kissed and adored when he got to see you that way. It made his stomach burn.
“You are bonded with Wyll body and soul. His scent lingers on your skin even now. If there’s anything to be between us, it must be with his consent.”
Damn it all, he couldn’t even be truly mad at the mountain of a man for being considerate. But what began to move the stone was what came next.
“And perhaps someday, his participation.” There was a feeling in Wylls stomach that was new. No longer an insecurity for being not at all like Halsin physically, but rather how the two of you were similar.
Both husky and large, how you’d both speak gently to him and genuinely care for his stories. How if he stood between you two he would be sandwiched between beefy chests and strong arms—
Interesting.
“Now that you mention it Halsin, how do you feel of Wyll? Perhaps we share the same attractions.” Wylls nails dug into the books pages in anticipation. If only he could see, but the shadows of both of you were all he was able to consume in the moment.
“Wyll is an admirable hero. Dedicating his body and soul to keeping those safe is never an easy choice, but it’s one he made and sticks to.” There was a pause and Wyll felt flush hearing your words of agreement.
“I’ve taken many in my time, none have made me stir quite like seeing you and Wyll fight along side each other. It’s like seeing two beings in their natural habitat.” Halsin chuckled, a deep sound that vibrated Wylls very bones. “Seeing him fight those goblins and the magic in the air was incredible. And his lean body works magic on the loins.”
“I do enjoy the idea of Wyll being showered with love by both of us, by the gods I do… but he is fairly old fashioned.” It was like a rubber band snapped against Wylls skin, you were right. Of course you were you knew him well!
But he liked the idea. A lot. And you didn’t know that, hells he didn’t even know he would either until the opportunity was actually in front of him. He felt like a fool being so flushed thinking of his lover and another man pleasing him.
You and halsin both wished each other a goodnight and camp fell into a calm quiet. You were walking back to your tent to sleep for the night and there Wyll sat. Perched on your bedroll, his eyes like a puppy as he looked up at you.
“How must we go about planning something like that with Halsin?”
okay I saw a post complaining about the Mitchell’s vs the machines and it’s driving me insane so I’m going to rant a little
They complained that the reveal at the end of the movie that Katie is gay was put at the end of the movie and is easily cut off and that we shouldn’t be happy about it. Buddy, this ain’t Disney, KATIE IS EXPLICITLY GAY THE ENTIRE MOVIE. literally every single second she is wearing a pride pin. There are rainbows vomited EVERYWHERE. Her whole character is not being like the standard! She CONTINUOUSLY puts emphasis on JADE when talking about her friends. Did you hear how she first described finally meeting people “like her”?? She mentions jade by name, and in her doodle she has made jaded name pop out more than others. SHE HAS A CRUSH ON HER. Not every single thing needs to be spelled out, it was clear the entire movie. The movie was NOT about her sexuality, she just IS A LESBIAN and she didn’t have to have a scene where she fucking looks to the audience and says “oh btw I’m gay!” Because she just is and it wasn’t a big deal. THIS IS A GOOD THING. THIS WAS GOOD REP. it made me so angry okay rant over
wtf I’m reading a saiki k fic and it starts off describing how the characters have chilled out in their final year of highschool and it goes “Kaidou’s bandages disappeared quietly and never returned, and their absence went unremarked.” And for some reason it made me so sad I almost started crying javdjwbdjebdbe
