Tommy is a knight, Ranboo is the queen (cause platonic marriage), Purpled is a rook, Puffy is a bishop, Eret is a pawn (that turns into a queen later in the game), and Tyrant himself is the king.

Tyrant looks at the superhero duo across the board, before spreading his arms out, “your move, Ladybug”

Okay that’s smart and terrifying. Oh god.

Just all of Mari and Adrien’s friends being chess pieces and now they have to go and pretty much use them to go and beat Tyrant. Oh man. And now we have the others also being chess pieces and they’re just as terrified as everyone is. They probably try to talk Tubbo out of it but it’s usually met with him brushing it off.

It’s now super stressful for Mari and Adrien now because they don’t want their friends hurt. They don’t want to win if it means that one of their friends will get hurt.

Now I know this is supposed to be serious and stuff but at the same time I can see Ranboo just blinking almost at the breaking point and realizing that even though it is chess, it doesn’t mean it has to be traditional Chess.

It can mean it could be Fundy and George’s style of Chess back at their home.

Ladybug’s lucky charm there is a bunch of Monopoly Money and she just goes and fucking buys all the chess pieces when she realizes this.

(Nino: Uh uh uh. I go and put down the White Eyes Dragon card!

Ladybug: Nino I don’t think that’s going to wor-

Tyrant: Oh that’s how you want to play? Well then I play the Pokemon Card Reshiram! Beat that!

Ladybug: W h a t

This was one of my FAVORITE scenes in the series and damn if I don’t love the idea of getting to do my own spin on it!  So here we go!!!

It's hard to watch Alec pace across the loft for the fifth or sixth time, tension in every inch of his body.  Magnus sympathizes, but Alec's expression is still furious and he is showing no signs of stopping to take a breath, let alone advice.  

"What am I supposed to do," Alec snarled, glancing down at his tablet again, the order there to hand over command to Aldertree blaring red on his phone every time he looked at it.  Aldertree would have already taken over his office, would have taken his place without waiting a moment to think and it makes his skin crawl to think of what is going to happen to the Downworlder Council meetings with him at the helm.  He paces across the loft again, tugging hard at his hair.  

"Alexander," Magnus called, trying to get him to stop his frantic pacing for just a moment.  "What does the order say?"  

Alec scoffed and glared at Magnus.  "That I am to turn over immediate control to Aldertree, and he is now the de facto Head of the New York-"

"Alec," Magnus growled, moving to his feet.  "I am asking you for a reason.  Does everyone in the institute report to him now?  Or no?"  

Alec blinked and tilted his head, opening his mouth for a moment before snapping it shut.  "Why are you asking that?"  

Magnus gave a faint smile.  "Because I know what makes a leader and what does not.  I have no doubt in my mind that you don't need to do anything other than show up and be yourself and your people, your team, will know who is in charge."  

Alec shook his head and scowled.  "He could report me easily enough-"

"Report what?" Magnus asked with a raised eyebrow.  "That you are taking initiative to get things accomplished?  That you are ensuring it run as appropriately?"  He stepped closer and pressed a hand to Alec's chest.  "Alexander, are you honestly telling me that you believe your team, the team you have built, worked with, trained and coached for years now, is going to accept his leadership just because the Clave said so?"  

Alec stared at Magnus and frowned.  "Those are orders."  

"And," Magnus said, a grin on his face.  "How many times have I seen you roll your eyes when your mother gave a similar reason, or excuse?  Following orders is all well and good, until they no longer make sense.  Then you stop following them."  

Alec blinked.  

"Think about it," Magnus said, giving him a little push.  "Go there.  Challenge him.  Dare him to try to get them to obey him instead of you.  Your people are loyal to you, Alexander.  They're loyal to what you are building at that Institute.  Don't you dare let some directive from Idris destroy everything you have worked to build in that Institute."  

Alec softened and reached out to wrap an arm around Magnus, pulling him in close, smiling.  "You're the best boyfriend a guy could ask for, you know that?"  

Magnus huffed and nuzzled into Alec's neck, pressing a kiss to his deflect rune.  "That is arguable, considering I just set you up to spend the remainder of the evening at the Institute, rather than with me."  

"Yeah," Alec said with an eyeroll.  "You prevented a very long night of pacing and anger.  I should be thanking you."  

"Thank me when you get your Institute back," Magnus said, pushing back from Alec just enough to steal a kiss.  "Want me to come in as backup?"  

Alec shook his head.  "I need to do this on my own.  I'll make sure to tell you when it's over.  He won't let me take control for long until he tries to grab it back."  

Magnus nodded, smiling at him.  "Trust yourself and trust your team, Alec.  They're loyal to you, not him."  

"You're right," Alec said, squaring his shoulders as he gave Magnus a grateful smile.  "I love you."  

Magnus pulled Alec in for a kiss, exhaling against his lips, before he let Alec tug himself away.  "I love you too," he whispered.  "Now go kick his ass."  

Alec winked at him.  "Do you have enough energy for a portal-"

Magnus summoned it before Alec had finished asking the question and gave him a wave.  "Get going.  I'll see you tomorrow if you don't make it home tonight."  

"I promise to text you either way."  

Magnus watched Alec step into the portal with a wave and turned to the drink cart, helping himself to it.  He glanced at the portal he'd yet to close and considered following Alec in, glamouring himself, just so he could watch the show about to unfold, but no, it'd be better if he left things to Alec.  He'd be too inclined to help if he did go.  He closed the portal and picked up his martini glass, heading for his office.  He had at least a few hours that he could kill before he went to bed.  

~!~

Alec headed straight for Operations as soon as he was in the Institute, reading over the reports that were waiting.  He knew, he was certain, that Aldertree was waiting in his office, but Alec wasn't about to give him the satisfaction of a confrontation there.  If he wanted it, they'd have it here, out in front of the team.  He fell into his role the same as always, pulling up a graphic of the New York subway station where a Behemoth demon had been sighted only an hour ago, speaking to a group of trainee shadowhunters who would be accompanying Izzy and Jace on the hunt.  

Woah Pirate boy got many requests! + Anon

JJ x Pirate AU // Request #24

Jameson the Navigator - he has a parrot [Polly] who speaks for him. He’s part of The Septic Eye ship crew and as one the more educated part of the crew - he became the navigator.

I drew this during my first livestream on Instagram and I would like to thank everybody who came or even dropped by, it was really nice talking to you, it helped to push my anxiety away for a little bit and I hope I will be able to do it again - if you wanna follow me - pistachio_lan on Insta!

Clary: She would be the one internally screaming in bisexual distress at all the hot people

Jace: The token straight dude who’s doing his best to be supportive

Simon: He would also be internally screaming at all the hot people.

Izzy: She would be loud and proud, trying to get Alec to be more outgoing.

Magnus: Also loud and proud, shooing people away from his very asexual friend, Raphael

Alec: He would rather be in the background and away from all the people flirting with him. He’s glad he’s here, but he’s just not one to be extravagant.

Maia: Taking ass and kicking names.

Puffy realizing that Dream is also a victim of XD’s memory manipulation

Puffy storming the prison and demanding to see her son

Puffy frozen in shock as she sees Dream lying on the prison floor, unconscious and wounded from torture

Puffy immediately going over and wrapping her arms around Dream, laying his head on her lap

Dream slowly waking up, eyes dazed and unfocused, his voice but a whisper “mom...?”

Puffy holding him tighter, tears flowing down her eyes, “it’s ok, duckling. Everything’s going to be ok. I’m here now, mom’s here”

;-;

C!Tommy waking up in the Theater world and wondering where the hell he is. Sapnap calls his names and says they’re gonna be late and that’s weird but c!Tommy still follows.

Sapnap leads him to a theater and c!Tommy is taken back when he sees Wilbur- not ghostbur but Wilbur- standing on the stage talking to a tall kid that kinda reminds him of Ranboo and Dream?

C!Tommy starts panicking because Dream is supposed to be in prison but before he can say anything t!Phil arrives.

“Alright, we got one week till showtime and a lot to do today. We’ll start with Ranboo’s panic room scene and then go to the prison visit because there’s some things that still need to be worked on” Phil says. Dream and Ranboo nod while Wilbur gets off the stage.

‘This is weirdest dream I’ve ever had” c!Tommy thinks as he watched Ranboo and Dream act. It’s all creepy and serious until Ranboo pauses for a really long time and says “line?”

“Ranboo!”

“I know I’m sorry!”

“Tommy are you ok?” Wilbur asks. C!Tommy looks at his not dead brother and doesn’t know how to respond. He doesn’t have to because at that moment the door slams open and in walks t!Tommy

“Sorry I’m late. My teacher held me after class and I would’ve texted but she wouldn’t let use my phone and-“. The two Tommy’s see each other and everyone else sees them too, practice completely forgotten. It’s silent until t!tommy and says “what the fuck?!”

Chaos ensues

Sentient Prison au

Sam was confident Tommy would be alright because he thought Pandora would make sure nothing happens. However, Tommy wasn’t near any of Pandora’s moving parts when Dream beat him up so it couldn’t do anything.

The days after Tommy’s death, Pandora refused to speak to Sam. Partly out of anger, partly out of guilt. It should’ve done something, but what? And it was Sam who kept Tommy past the week, who convinced Pandora to not let Tommy across.

Sam avoids going to Pandora until a week later. He enters, surprised Pandora even let him in, and just collapsed at his desk staring at the redstone lamp he uses to communicate with his creation.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. It was my idea to leave him there. I didn’t think anything would happen, I thought- I don’t know what I thought”

Pandora doesn’t respond, Sam starts crying. “He’s dead and it’s my fault. His body is still in that cell and I can’t get him out. I’m sorry you had to stare at that for so long”

The familiar comforting hum of machinery fills Sam’s ears. He looks at the lamp as Pandora responds in Morse code.

‘Don’t...cry...I’ll...help...you...get...his...body...out’

Sam smiles, “thank you. Do you hate me?”

Two flickers. No.

“Why?”

‘You’re...my...friend’

Man and machine work together to get Tommy’s body out of the cell and Sam and Puffy give Tommy a proper burial the next day.

Puffy: how’d you get his body without Dream noticing?

Sam wanted to tell her. Finally unveil his biggest secret. But now wasn’t the time. Maybe another day.

Sam: ...I had some help

Basically in the afterlife, Tommy is granted an interesting job by either death or the universe or some other powerful being. He’s to house and take care of souls who have recently died but aren’t ready to move on yet. He’s basically in charge of limbo, which happened to look exactly like the Big Innit Hotel.

Tommy gets his hotel in the end, but not in the way he thought. Souls come in and out constantly, some stay for less than a day, others for months. But no one stays forever. It’s interesting meeting all these people and hearing their stories and making friends even though he know they’ll soon be gone. He’s still our gremlin child but he loves this job that was assigned to him.

Also Wilbur and Schlatt are his employees, hilarity ensues.

Tommy just chills in the afterlife and goes and welcomes those who has died. Wilbur and Schlatt bicker all the time but Tommy makes sure that they still do their job.
