Summary:

Buddy always had a hunch that someone on her crew would betray themโ€ฆ

Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that person would be Juno Steel.

this fic is a very long time coming- and i am so excited to share it with everyone. its an s3 canon divergence featuring nureyevโ€™s debt plot line. so spoilers up to s4, but nothing from the most recent season.

massive thanks to @violetsinviolence for the gorgeous banner and @melonoverlord for betaing this

don't talk to me about buffy summers. she didn't come back wrong. she wishes desperately she came back wrong. she's sure she did, because she feels wrong and if it wasn't her dying and it wasn't her being dragged kicking and screaming back to the land of the living and it wasn't her clawing out of her own grave only to have to do it all again then it's just her. it's just that buffy's wrong. she's irreperably broken and all death did was stop her from being able to hide it.

April Fools day here is always funny because my dash is full of โ€œhereโ€™s a Rick roll but itโ€™s actually a different songโ€ โ€œhereโ€™s โ€˜do you love the color of the skyโ€™ just kidding! Itโ€™s not the full long post!โ€ โ€œHereโ€™s a drawing I made of a kitty! Just kidding! Itโ€™s two kitties and theyโ€™re best friendsโ€ and we do this unironically and completely ignoring the blood lust we all experience every year just two weeks prior

dont get me wrong this is #mood but just try eating a piece of bread with salt. please, seriously. ok? at least a tiny bit. salt helps with nausea, bread calms the stomach acid. if you really canโ€™t face eating anything, just lick some salt like a damn elk, then wait and see if you can manage the bread. make some broth if youโ€™re into that kind of thing. no spices, yes salt. if youโ€™re feeling too weak and shaky to do much, just have a cup of tea with sugar (energy) and lemon (again, good against nausea). nibble on the lemon first, it will feel good, but donโ€™t overdo - citric acid on an empty stomach is a majorly bad idea. take care of yourself, youโ€™re the only you weโ€™ve got

โ€œYouโ€™re the only you weโ€™ve gotโ€

ok!!! โ™ฅ๏ธ

Yeah okay ill reblog that!!

This is so damn sweet and also good to know. I regularly have this struggle

Prompt from @inkedinserendipity: โ€œthe trope where nureyev tries to sell juno on not caring about him while theyโ€™re rescuing the fam, maybe the heist that makes it very clear heโ€™s been lyingโ€

~~~

Peter Nureyev spent a year learning what it was to lie to Juno. The shape of it was familiar in his mouth, the feeling of it on his skin as he pulled his face into the expressions he needed was a practiced thing. He was confident that he put on a convincing show; then, the evidence was the way Juno would smile at him, would soften and pull away the armor from another wound to let Nureyev look, would offer up little hopeful pieces of a future they could plan together. Nowโ€ฆ

Now, the evidence was the way Juno staggered closer after pulling himself out of the Ruby only to stop, stepping back before he could really get close and leaving that chilly distance uncontested between them. Puck was there before Nureyev had to wonder what he should do, almost leaping over the hood of the car and grabbing Junoโ€™s weight before he could fall to the ground.

Junoโ€™s collapse proved inevitable seconds later, but it was gentler with Puck falling next to him, both settling heavily in the dirt. The Ruby beeped softly and urgently, punching her side into a shape more concave than a working vehicle should be to hold them. Nureyev stood by, still and redundant.

There was nothing he could do here. All of that practice lying to Juno made him worse at lying to himself.

What is the main reason you keep your nails short?*

- play an instrument

- play a sport

- a hobby/craft that requires it (sewing, baking, woodworking ect.)

- practicality in everyday life

- practicality/requirement for work

- medical reason

- bite nails short

- sex related reason

- other/nuance

- long nails button

*short as in level with or shorter than your fingertip

If itโ€™s from force of habit from childhood (or similar), choose the option that was the main reason before it was habit

Iโ€™d say no cheating, but there are already five aces at the table.

just a reminder that apparently anybody who isnโ€™t ace cheats

this literally says the aces are cheatingโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ. becauseโ€ฆ you canโ€™t have five aces in a deckโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ.itโ€™s the Opposite of the second commentโ€ฆ

Reading comprehension on this site is piss-poor

How dare you say aces piss on the poor

Happy pride y'all

How dare you say we should take pride in pissing on the poor

Werenโ€™t you listening? Heโ€™s praying. GOES HARD AS FUCK

THIS!! THIS SCENE!!

Everyday I come across people who say โ€˜oh he was a procrastinator, oh he could have killed his uncle at anytime why didnโ€™t heโ€™

And everyone who says that is Missing. The. Point.

[Image description: The first image is a gif showing a bust portrait of Juno Steel, a black non-binary person with half braided hair wearing a purple turtleneck sweater, gold hoop earrings, and gold-framed glasses. The right frame of the glasses cycles through six different styles.

  1. A clear frame showing a scarred eye
  2. A tinted frame
  3. A tinted frame with a pink, pixelated eye that winks
  4. Golden shutters completely replacing the lens
  5. A golden lens with a rose etched into the outer bottom corner
  6. A cloth lens embroidered with roses and dahlias

The next six images are the individual frames of the gif, in order.

End description]

I was looking up post-enucleation treatment out of curiosity and apparently, it's recommended that you wear glasses to protect the remaining eye, which got me thinking, firstly, "Hey I should draw Juno with glasses" but also, "Oh, I should do something cool with the other lens"
