A bunch of smut one shots to celebrate a certain number in my stats today lmao. I would’ve had more prepped but I didn’t think it would happen so fast? And I’ve missed some chances before so I’m just gonna go for it this time. That being said, it’s just smut fics so if that’s not your thing, dw abt it lol. I kinda tease certain AUs bc I have a plot being written where the oneshot would’ve taken place but some are just ones I used for the sake of it being a diff AU.
adorable dad thing today: watching the man cook
for context, when he was a young college student he worked at a fancy restaurant in the middle of nowhere. From time to time he pulls out his skills from that restaurant whether it's cooking or random waiter things or whatnot. He absolutely loves cooking. He's so good at it too.
And, I don't know, there's just something about it. Him opening the oven to pull out three pans of golden beautiful enchiladas made with such specificity and love. Enough to feed his family for two days and also a couple of young adults who were stopping by for food. The love. Small batch huge heart. So much care.
He used to hate complex foods. He used to be a horrible picky eater who didn't like tomatoes or mushrooms or anything red or anything grown up. (This was before I knew him, but I know stories.) He used to hate cooking. And then, to be a dad, he learned. He learned for work to support his family and then he learned for love to feed his family. And decades later he's still at it. And it's incredible. I cannot fathom food as good as my dad's.
Forget adorable. My dad is precious.

I think about this photo in the butcher shop a lot.
Talked about the concept with some buddies on discord (hi if they also have tumblr), obviously Mel ends up fine, either by Ken putting a stop to it, or it’s just staged to look very silly, but imagine, if you will, what would happen if this scenario ended very, very poorly.
So, I drew it.
BLOOD AND DECAPITATION WARNING!! ⚠️
Yeah im. Mean to these guys. What about it huh. Punk.
Might consider making this a whole AU since I have a lot of thoughts about it. Not sure what to call it though lol. This concept is absolutely FUCKED and I love it :-))
The joy of creating good food is ones reflection of passion, desire, and, to some point, eroticism. 🥰🙏⚘️

I always thought Tyrian was The Scorpion who could control his nature.
Do you think Tyrian might try and make Mercury see things his way?
Hello anons!
These asks can be answered together!
To the first anon, ooooh, interesting take! Do you mind to elaborate?
Anyway, as for me, I do not think he can actually control his nature. Tbh... I would not be surprised if in the end his nature were to lead him to his death.
As for now, I would rather say that he is the Scorpion who has embraced his nature:
Tyrian: Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh. I want to tell you both a little secret. Your question is all wrong. "What do you want from this?" Children, please, if you're not loving what you're doing, then you're in the wrong field.
Tyrian: Do what makes you happy children... please? I'm begging you...
He does what makes him happy aka killing and hurting others. He has accepted who he is, so he does not really try to change or to become someone else.
I think this reading also fits with him foiling both Qrow and Mercury aka two characters who have trouble accepting who they are.
On one hand Qrow sees himself only as a bad omen. He thinks it is his own nature and misses how much he means for his loved ones.
On the other hand Mercury claims he is embracing his own nature:
Mercury: All my life, my father trained me to be a killer, an assassin like him. And then moments after I killed him, you two showed up looking for someone with my exact skills. Just felt like it was meant to be.
But he is actually negating his personhood:
Tyrian: All you ever learned was pain and violence, and now you're too afraid to leave it. Such a tragedy.
Which leads us to the second anon’s question.
Honestly it is too soon to say.
As for now, there has actually been an interesting dynamic between Tyrian and Mercury. To be more specific, Tyrian has actually said out loud things Mercury has been negating/repressing.
Mercury wants to see himself as a big bad man, but Tyrian strips him of this coping mechanism and states Mercury is just a victim and a scared child.
Mercury does not want to deal with the Salem destroying the world, but Tyrian appears and makes this truth impossible to escape.
At the same time, Tyrian’s body language in both occasions has been controlling and threathening. He tells Mercury the truth, but also traps him in fear more and more.
In short, their interactions are good because Tyrian’s body language negates the effect his words could have.
All in all, it seems to me as a jungian dynamic...Tyrian is acting as Mercury’s shadow in multiple ways. He is giving voice to truths Mercury deep down knows, but does not accept. At the same time, he is taking control of Mercury (he literally drags him away in War).
Until Mercury is trapped in his fear he will be Tyrian’s prisoner as well.
So, I do not know if Tyrian will consciously try to influence/groom Mercury. He seems more than anything having fun tormenting him tbh. However, it is possible Mercury will try to act more like him as a coping mechanism. After all, it is the same thing he has done with Marcus. Mercury deep down despises his father, but he is still doing what his father would have wanted him to do. At the same time, the juxtaposition with Tyrian might lead Mercury to finally accept he can’t be like him or his father, no matter how much he tries.
Anyway, it is too soon to say, there are many possibilities.
Thank you for the ask!
