By this point we’ve all seen a hundred “Lucy had a crush on Cooper Howard and doesn’t realize he’s the Ghoul” takes (which feed me during the hiatus, thanks), but just for the lols I’d love to see the reversal: Lucy hates this guy.

Cooper Howard is her personal White Whale. Lucy hate-watches his films and nit-picks every scene like someone is paying her caps to do it. Whatever the opposite of a blorbo is, that’s Cooper. She woke up one day and chose violence against this 200 years dead actor in particular… but, you know, in a PR approved, Vaultie kind of way. Why the hate? Who knows. Probably a combination of her dad showing her Cooper’s debut film right when she hit that tween age where liking what your parents like is soul crushing and the fact that if she didn’t have this emotional outlet she’d probably explode. It’s the one (1) thing goody-goody Lucy is irrational about and Norm takes endless pleasure in it.

So she’s traveling with the Ghoul, right? Not a whole lot to do while traversing the Wasteland, especially when your companion is blatantly ignoring you and the pip-boy isn’t picking up any radio signals. So when Lucy is able to open that wound again she starts talking about her dad. The books he liked. Jokes he told over dinner. His favorite pair of socks. Silly, inconsequential things that don’t touch on the weight of his betrayal.

Eventually, Lucy talks about the movies they used to watch.

Eventually, Lucy is comfortable enough—and bored enough—to segue into epic rants about Cooper Fudging Howard. For hours. Nothing escapes her passive aggressive, couched-as-constructive-criticism bitching. Not his acting (“Really, he’d benefit from learning a gesture other than sticking his hands in his belt”), not his looks (“Who decided to put him in those pants in Master of the Ranch? Although, Dad says Howard is the one who requested them…”), not even his unintentional impact on the family (“I swear if Dad makes me watch A Man and His Dog one more time…”).

All the while Cooper is walking a few paces ahead. Seemingly stoic.

Actually losing it.

What’s he even supposed to do in this situation?? He hates himself, but not like that. Cooper doesn’t have any desire to talk to Vaultie (that’s a lie. He’s good at lying to himself), but suddenly he wants to turn around, finger held aloft in the air (hers), and correct everything coming out of her mouth—whether he truly disagrees or not. Hands-in-belt is a classic cowboy pose. He loved those pants.

Cooper is Struggling™ and they haven’t even hit the strip yet.

Bonus points: Somewhere along the line they get together and Cooper starts angsting over whether Lucy will leave him. Not because of the radiation damage, or the murder, or the cannibalism, but because if she ever finds out he’s Cooper Howard she’ll absolutely abandon ship. Or kill him. Either option seems likely at this point.

God Fallout New Vegas is actually a TERRIBLE game that SUCKS & NO ONE should EVER play it NO STARS I fucking hate it here...

New Vegas shenanigans

My durge, Eris, and Enver Gortash, staring down Ketheric Thorm at some boring meeting. (pre-tadpole times) E & E were in love. I don't make the rules. @lwiann created this beautiful piece for me. Thank you so very much!

“Somehow, I still love you. I’m a coward, aren’t I?”

A scene from my fic brought to life by the amazingly talented @tokamiart !!!

When someone inevitably gives him a copy of the Drizzt books...

commission for @lipstickghoulie of astarion and her tav!

full view on twitter

Of course I had to draw the new coolest ghoul in town!!!

I fell in love with this lighting

Original post

Would Astarion renew the bite? Discuss. ♥

ok so i made castlevania au astarion

posted this a while back on twitter, and i thought maybe i should revive my tumblr acc just a little bit

Pairing: Spawn!Astarion x namedFemale!Tav (my Tav, Evelyn)

Rating: 18 +, Explicit

Word Count: ~6.5k

Warnings/Tags: Sexually explicit content, period sex, period blood, menstrual symptoms, menstrual discomfort, mentions of pregnancy and miscarriage/pregnancy loss, sexually aggressive Astarion, a bit of blood-play, Astarion struggling with intimacy a little bit, tender loving aftercare, slight in-game spoilers (The Underdark)

Summary: Evelyn finds herself without her usual tonics and to subdue her menstrual symptoms just as the party arrives down into the Underdark. With no merchants in sight as of yet, Evelyn realizes she must endure the pains… that is, until her vampire lover offers a more creative solution.

A/N: Just because my revelation on Astarion’s love for period blood was more… scientific, doesn’t mean I don’t believe that Astarion also just adores this because he gets to have sloppy, messy period sex with his lover. ;) Please enjoy my requested take on this delicious trope!

And of course, a massive thanks and shout-out to the best beta-reader a girl could ask for, @herdarkestnightelegance! ✨❤️ always a pleasure to work with you, friend!

A lot of you already know that I’m a little freak about period stuff so this should come as no surprise but I LOVED this! A definite must-read (especially if you have a menstrual kink)! 🤪

Despite having super vampire powers, Astarion hiding in a bush while he stalks his ex is funny to me ok
