Date: 2012-07-25 10:27 pm (UTC)Snake suspects that Ciel lied to him, but is biding his time in any case. (Besides, he's lonely.)
He looks at Finny in complete bewilderment, because he's so bright and innocent and has already memorized all of the snakes' names. Because Finny *likes* him and he doesn't understand why.
Sebastian smells weird. Snake thinks he must be some kind of "freak" too, like Snake or one of the other circus people, but can't tell how.

Date: 2012-07-25 11:12 am (UTC)YGO: Seto Kaiba of course
Your story: Death and Michael
uh... if you get stuck for time you can just pick the one you want.
does it count as headcanon if i wrote it....
Date: 2012-07-26 12:40 am (UTC)He's an irritating submissive because the idiot refuses to use his safeword, even when he should.
He read Mokuba fairy tales when they were younger, but edited them when they were stupid. (The version where Cinderella exposed her stepmother as corrupt and took over her spinning business was way better, anyway.) The book was burned in his first week as Seto Kaiba.
He speaks at least seven languages, and tends to switch without noticing when he's distracted.
He's a sculptor, with metalwork and holograms. Some of the statues around Kaibaland are his.
Death:
In all the times that the Man in White has caused an imbalance, Death has had to interfere personally in about a third of them. Most of the time, humans cannot handle the power they find and things... balance themselves back out.
Death didn't lie - it has no idea what happens after humans die. But after Michael, it...wonders.
Death is nongendered - it doesn't quite understand the idea.
Death doesn't chose its form often - wherever someone is dying they are in that moment Death, and Death is they. But every now and then, there is a fresh corpse that Death finds useful.
Michael:
He almost tried, once, early on - some bug he was going to squash anyway, just to find out if he really *could* - he felt the tiny tiny tug of life, and then stopped, and picked it up so that he could put it outside. (I'm planning on writing that scene in, when I finally edit it)
He's never certain if he pities or hates Tobias - except right before he dies and he has the blinding thought of his wife left unprotected with his murderer, he's entirely certain that it might be hate.
He's retired, and works in his garden when his flowers are in season. He remembers how to, and it's nice to have the nice comfortable feeling of motions well worn into motor memory.
His heart breaks when a day passes and he finds out that it was his anniversary - he doesn't *miss* his old life, so to speak, but he misses the little connections, the bits of knowledge that help human beings show that they care about each other. When he finds out he cuts some roses from his garden and sets about cooking dinner, making whatever feels natural. He doesn't know what it's called and he burns the chicken a bit, but his wife smiles, startled and beautiful, and says that this meal was always her favorite - and that makes it better again.
....come to think of all of those michael bits might end up being canon.

Date: 2012-07-28 03:28 pm (UTC)I’m absolutely wedded to the idea that Kaiba would never use a safe word because it feel like losing to him – or at any rate conceding the match – and also because a small, unexplored part of him would want to make his lover totally responsible for his physical and emotional safety, that trust more than anything else would be the turn on.
I also love the idea that some of the KaibaLand statues are his – and naturally there’d be nothing to indicate which ones, and it’s not something he’d publicize because it’d feel too private.
I love the Michael scenes – they really do fit into your story when you revise it. I can just see him hovering over a bug and then loving, if not the bug, at least its life force. It’s funny Michael and his wife are such a wonderful OTP, I’m sappily in love with the idea that even though he doesn’t remember anything else, he knows he loves her. It says something about Michael that he’s special even to Death. Hell, he makes me feel sorry for Death, losing his only friend - and not even fully realizing that what he feels is friendship and affection, which makes it sadder.
Talk to you later.

Date: 2012-07-25 09:07 pm (UTC)an abundance of loki. inevitably
Date: 2012-07-26 01:21 am (UTC)He's not a bully and he's not malicious, he just doesn't stop to think about things much - teasing works with the warriors three, and they understand that he doesn't really mean it, so obviously Loki should know that too. Sparring is *fun*, way more fun than hiding in the library, and Loki probably just loses out of spite.
When Loki falls he mourns, but not with much belief - Loki would come back, he knows with faith and trust, because Loki would always come back.
He has a slight electrical charge around him at all times, and more so when he's startled or excited. Tony banned him from his workshop after he made machinery explode on accident. (Only Tony is allowed to do that.)
In the end, when Thor presses, staring Odin down and refusing to be budged until he got an answer to why Loki was in so much pain, so broken in those last moments - in the end Odin sighs and tells him, tells him about an newborn Jotun and a spell, secrets he never meant to tell. Thor blinks, glances at the spot where Loki would have been standing if he were there, wonders if mercy on the Jotnar planet meant he had to like individuals - then he decides it doesn't matter, because Loki is still Loki.
(he doesn't ask why Odin said no, why Odin didn't grab them both, because he's afraid of what the answer would be.)
He likes Jane, but he liked a dozen mortal girls before her, and while she matters more because of what he learned with her, he never intended to keep her.
Loki is his brother, his best friend, his partner in crime and his -he always cuts off at that point, and he doesn't know why and never examines it too closely. Loki is his Loki, and that is all that matters. (He likes fine boned girls, and green eyes, and never thinks about that either.)
Loki once taught him "fetch", but never quite managed "roll over." Thor figured out that he was eating dog treats by then.
Of all of Loki's children, Thor thinks that he liked Fenrir the most.
...may just do loki's anyway, but later.

Date: 2012-07-26 08:21 pm (UTC)also your icon except i was playing tetris
Date: 2012-07-26 08:52 pm (UTC)He keeps a mental tally of the people that have died because of him, because he wasn't fast enough or smart enough.
He buried the circus crew, no funeral or fanfare, no names except their aliases, no dates - but he visited, once, and left a chocolate on Doll's stone. (I have that fic, half-finished, somewhere...)
He only visited his parent's graves once, and didn't look back when he left.
He obviously believes in the supernatural, and goes to church because it's appropriate, but he's something of an atheist. If there was any god interested in helping humans, then he would still have both eyes. (Aaaand another fic I need to finish sometime...)
Speaking of which, he's always surprised his eye doesn't burn when he takes communion.
When she pulled out her swords, it was the first time that Ciel thought that LIzzie might be a partner and not a burden.
Not that he plans to tell her about what happened to him.
He gives people second chances, if he thinks they'll take them - collecting a group of loyal servants, yes, but also because he was given a second chance himself, and if he gives the demon's offer to others it is only fair.
He believes himself to do what is necessary - to be a monster - to be a tool. (He believes things that aren't always true.)

sooo many tony feels
Date: 2012-07-28 12:20 am (UTC)He can tell of his Roombas apart, even if no one else can. (Bruce is learning.)
He and Rhodey have never fucked. (Not for lacking of effort on Tony's part, though.)
Pepper is not his wife or his girlfriend. She looked at him for a long moment and then started laughing.
(He's secretly grateful. He would break her.)
He didn't fuck Obie either. They did make out once, though when Tony was drunk and fifteen. (Obie had pushed him away, saying they shouldn't, but Tony wasn't drunk enough to believe that he meant it.)
He never told anyone about Yinsen.
Pepper suspects, because he slips up sometimes - says "we" instead of "I" when talking about the cave - but hasn't asked.
When Fury throws the cards down, it's Yinsen that Tony thinks of. (just wait to you see avengers)
He tries to push Steve away too, because Steve is even more perfect than Pepper and he can't bear to destroy him.
Steve doesn't really let him.
Bruce is his favorite.
When the Higgs was announced, he was in the middle of a press conference and happened to check his phone. He squeaked for about five minutes, and thrust his phone at Bruce. Bruce blinked and read it and then also squeaked and the next ten minutes were full of fanboying and trying to explain the significance to Steve and then giving up and Tony on the phone calling for a plane and yes, JARVIS, *all* of the alcohol. Then he and Bruce got drunk and crashed CERN'S party.
He's as surprised as anyone else when people keep in touch with him after, even if he was the one who gave Steve a phone.
it's been a while but here's Nagi
Date: 2012-07-29 11:52 pm (UTC)He didn't mind dying in the end - the kid was going to live and the others were out, because they were so much stronger than him, and his wife was waiting for him.
He believes in an afterlife. He has to, otherwise there would be no hope for anyone.
He thinks, dying, the thought that they were okay somewhere must have been where it started.
People flinched when he showed h is locket. He thought it must have been because his son was so beautiful.
The sin is tied to innocence, childishness. Maybe it was the make-believe that made him such a strong deadman.
Yagmur
Date: 2012-07-30 12:07 am (UTC)He once wished that he was allergic to cats, just so that he'd have an excuse. But then he realized that Ferman is generally covered in cat fur.
Nathalie has a cat. It likes him. He's not sure why this bothers him.
Ferman is the only man he's ever been attracted to.
He'd planned and practiced but he still sort of blinked and went, "...uh. I've never touched...er, someone else's, before." Ferman blushed and said, "We can learn together?"
He knows that Efe knows and hated his teasing until he realized that meant that Ferman wouldn't take it seriously.
He thinks that everything is over now.
He's wrong.
efe is king of everything except his wife
Date: 2012-07-30 12:17 am (UTC)He'll tell them, someday. At their wedding, maybe.
He has *plans* for that wedding.
His wife is beautiful and sharp-edged and puts up with no bullshit, responding to his teasing with a flat stare or a smack.
But sometimes when he's aimed at someone else, she'll listen and nod and slowly start to smirk and her eyes will gleam and he'll think - oh yes, that's why I fell in love with her.
-and then sometime she'll get him when he's not expecting it and he'll end up flat on his ass and covered in glitter - and she'll put her camera away and leave with a smirk and he'll think, smiling, and *that's* why I married her.
Cannonballs. At every chance.
He knows Cem has a crush. (Boy's kind of obvious.)
He wonders how long it'll take for someone to comment on the gay porn he keeps leaving around.
Hmm. Maybe he should leave sticky notes saying "THIS IS A HINT." on them.
He and Ozgur tussled at first over Those Idiots, because Ozgur is all responsible and shit and didn't understand - but then Efe sat him down and pointed at them. They watched as Those Idiots stared at each other's lips for about a half hour without either of them noticing. Ozgur blinked. "I told you they deserve it." "...yes."
erik is a badass spy
Date: 2012-07-30 12:54 am (UTC)He knows Yiddish but never uses it.
He hasn't celebrated anything since the war.
His power comes through his left hand because that's where the rage comes.
He never looked for Magda, after she left. She left him, and he respects that. (Later, he wishes he had.)
He never told Charles about her. (He wasn't sure he needed to.)
When Magda left, Erik could only think that it was a sign - he was never fit for a normal life after all.
He has passports from half a dozen countries, but holds citizenship nowhere.
He tried to join Mossaud when he made it to Israel. The recruiter had called him "boy" and gave him the card for immigration and said "you are too young to become a monster killing other monsters."
Erik had nodded stiffly and left, and five minutes later the recruiter's phone exploded.
Later, Mossaud occasionally traded information with him, as long as he hid the bodies.
People see his straight nose and his age and hear his accent and think he must be one of them, must have been a Nazi (he would have been too young, but they don't care) but the claim has long since lost its burn and rage.
Besides, it's useful.
He's killed for infomation, fucked women and men for it, faked nationalities and accents and allegiences - he carried an armband stolen from a dead bastard in his pocket once once, to get into a private meeting - he burned the armband and the building after. He feels no shame, because his idenity is pure regardless of what mask he wears, and he will do what works.
He has always been ready to die if he could take Schimdt down too.
charles is - Brilliant, ridiculous, beautiful and hopless. He's smart enough to understand but he *doesn't* because he's pampered and hopeful and Erik can't do what it would take to teach him.
Raven - Raven understands.
He doesn't love her, and she doesn't him. Not like that. She just wanted someone to *see* her.
He still has that bullet.
Erik died on that beach, and Magneto arose.
(Sometimes he wishes he didn't. Only sometimes.)
charles is feely too
Date: 2012-07-30 01:32 am (UTC)Raven stole his first drink for him.
He's not like his mother, hiding from her husband in the bottom of a bottle - he's not like that, he knows better, it'll be fine.
He's not ashamed of his power or hers, but he knows - painfully intimately well - what happens to the different.
He just wants all of his people to be safe and doesn't understand why they won't let him.
Erik is - Erik is sharp and quick and beautiful, not just his power, not just his mind - he's beautiful like a weapon, like a thunderstorm or a saint.
He thinks sometimes he died on that beach, and sometimes he just wishes he did.
Raven is his best friend, and Erik is his love - later he'll be able to look back and see the missteps and slights they never acknowledged until too late, the wounds he made and never knew - and he wishes he could apologize even as he knows they'd never stand for it.
He kissed Erik in a cramped car, somewhere in the middle of Kansas - in a truck in the Russian snow - in a plane on the way to Cuba. (He didn't on the beach, but he wanted to.)
The beach is the last time they touch.
In a way, though, Raven hurt more, because he was never quite fool enough to think that Erik was his. But Raven was familiar, comfortable, and that was his mistake.
He just wants them back - failing that, he wants them *safe*.
artist steve!
Date: 2012-07-30 11:56 pm (UTC)He does pencil sketches, out of habit - no money for anything more elaborate when he was a child.
Now Tony buys him oils and canvas and horse-hair brushes and steve feels faintly guilty for using them.
He gets Tony back by drawing really really cute pictures of him and posting them online.
He wasn't sure how to post them, so Bruce helps, and sometimes gives him reference photos. (The one where Dummy is poking Tony with a blender is his favorite.)
Steve's drawn most of the team, but he doesn't keep any of them.
He gave Tony's portrait to Pepper (and refused Tony's offers to pose nude), gave Clint and Natasha's to each other. Bruce's was given to Tony who displayed it promently in the lab to mortify Bruce. Thor's he gave to Jane.
He didn't do one of himself and won't, no matter how Tony asks.
(He did another one, a little more unsteady, based on description and imagination and rushed memories of battle. He wasn't sure it worked, in the end - not sure he captured the likeness of a man he never really met and not the mad wreckage the man became. But he finished it, black and green, and wraps it up and tells Jane to give it Thor next time he she sees him.)
(The next time he sees Thor, he gets hugged so hard his ribs are briefly bruised.)
Sometimes Tony reminds him of his father. Sometimes, Tony reminds him of Bucky.
He loved - loves - Bucky more dearly than almost anyone.
Bucky was -is? - his best friend, his partner, his back up. Peggy is his inspiration, his warrior-goddess, maybe not really his but she could be -
He's not sure he could ever chose between them. (He's only a little grateful he never had to.)
All in all, he's glad he's in new century, even if he misses the old sometimes.
+cats
Date: 2012-07-31 12:42 am (UTC)His cats are his babies. Even if they might hate Yagmur a bit.
Efe tried to dress up Orca. Once.
He always knew there was something wrong with him. He prayed and believed and married a nice girl his parents liked but there was still something *broken*.
If it's not because he wanted men (a man), then it's because he doesn't know how to love anyone the way they deserve. (He thinks it's his fault Esra left.)
He sings in the shower. And to his cats.
He's an excellent cook, and it's his job to pick the resturants when they're out. (Efe and Cem pick more... scandalous places.)
If that woman hurts Yagmur he's not sure what he would do.
Sometimes, he sits next to Ogzur and says, "Everyone is insane." "Yes," Ozgur replies, "That's why we stay."
He thinks he's lost him forever.
He hasn't.
manslut #1
Date: 2012-08-02 04:13 am (UTC)The only thing he can cook is curry, and even that only sort of.
"Curry" on the other hand...
Drugs don't do fuck all, but he can fake a high.
He knows all of Sebastian's sweet spots, all his kinks - knows that if he wants he to make Sebastian's eyes flare with lust he just slides to his knees and calls him "daddy"
But turnabout is fair play, and Sebastian makes him weak in the knees.
He doesn't like the Phantomhive brat, because his brother his boring now, collared and some part of the fascianted bastard likes it (no one puts a collar on Sebastian but him) - and it's stupid, because he's waited for centuries for his perfect brother to mess up and it's happened and now he's furious.
He and Sebastian had picked their surnames together. Konstantinov because Constantine was a fucking loon, and the Russian is charmingly exotic most places he goes.
'sides, it's fun watching people try and spell it.
Dimitri had asked - shouldn't we share a surname, since we're brothers? Sebastian had smirked and said, it's scandalous enough that we are both men... aaaand the discussion was over.
Soma is - something else, and his faith is contagious, delicious except he doesn't want to ruin him, just...look at him for a while, because he's amazing -
-and he refuses to admit that he's starting to get why Sebastian likes humans so much.
and catwhore for last.
Date: 2012-08-05 02:36 am (UTC)(He likes making it, though.)
He doesn't mind steaks
Demons that form close together rarely stay together - solatary beasts all of them. He and Dimitri are something of an exception, to see each other as something other than competition. Partnerships are not unheard of, but the sort of long standing non-interference agreement is rarer.
Sebastian thinks it's worth it, but won't tell Dimitri that.
Demons tend to be agents of chaos almost by nature, but Sebastian likes order, likes rules, likes the way pain can be intscribed into routine and likes watching humans twist them selves into unnatural shapes for tradition.
But what he likes most of all is a soul that twists and bends but never ever breaks.
(Ciel is his favorite human, for a lot of reasons.)
(He's more fascinated by Ciel than he wants to admit.)
He's more attracted to Ciel's soul than is proper, more fascinaetd by this tiny soul than any self-respecting demon would be. He knows this, but he also knows that that tiny soul is bright and fascinating and worth it; like a moth to a flame or a cat to a shiny toy he can't help it.
He knows that he can handle it. (Dimitri thinks otherwise. Sebastian doesn't plan on telling him that he might be right.)
Cats are his favorite (cats and little children) because they are sneaky and soft and always, always see the truth.
