🫂 Comforting hugs

The Koopalings had an impressive airship, though it didn't compare to Bowser's old warship in size and scale. It was, however, large enough to come equipped with a prison– lacking the suspended cages and lava pits that Luigi was familiar with, but equally unwelcoming... cold, cramped, dirty and unsettling dark.

Mario and Luigi's captors hadn't come to conquer kingdoms, their only mission was to bring The Super Mario Brothers back to The Dark Lands in chains. Whether they were to be used as a bargaining chip or Bowser wanted the satisfaction of killing them himself, Luigi could only guess. The moment Bowser's young minions stopped squabbling and worked together as a unit, Luigi and Mario were quickly overwhelmed. The additional troops they had brought along overtook them the moment they fell, pulling them apart and dragging them away. That was the last time Luigi saw his brother before he woke up in a squalid cell.

If there was one bright side, it was that Luigi had learned how to pick locks since the last time he was captured. It took him about twenty minutes to work the door mechanisms free bit by bit, hiding his smuggled lock pick within the inner lining of his hat whenever a koopa or goomba wandered by.

When Luigi's cell door finally swung open he pumped his fist in the air victoriously, but he wasn't ready to pat himself on the back just yet. He was not safe by any means, and he still had to figure out what happened to Mario.

Luigi moved as swiftly and silently as possible down the murky hallway, keeping an ear out for guards while calling his brother's name, which echoed off the stone walls of vacant cells. Luigi began to worry that, besides the guards, he was the only one being held in that prison. What would that mean? Was Mario was being held elsewhere? Was he hurt? Was he being hurt? With these morbid thoughts plaguing his mind, Luigi could barely keep himself from letting out a cry of relief when he finally found his brother at the furthest end of the prison, where the bars on the cell walls were thicker and the doors had extra locks. Two goombas were positioned outside his cage, and before they could react Luigi took them out with two firm stomps. Before throwing them in a neighboring cell he searched them over for keys. Unfortunately, neither of them had been trusted with such a privilege.

You’re among the best people I’ve ever met through Tumblr. It’s been such a delight bonding with you through our shared love for Mario and writing and just getting to know the wonderful person you are. I appreciate your love and support for me and my fics as much as you appreciate mine for you and your fics. I hope you have the most wonderful and fun-filled day today! I love you, Zahra! 🫂☺️❤️

Oh, and tell Mugi I said hi 😁

Awww Riley 🥹😭🫂 Thank you so so much!! OMG what a BEAUTIFUL surprise to find your lovely ask in my inbox 🥰 Such a sweet and wonderful birthday surprise!! 💖💖

Your words are truly melting my heart and I really couldn't be more grateful nor lucky that we met 🫶 The feeling is mutual as it's also been soooo great to get to know you better and to both receive your support on my writing and discover yours 🥰 It's really been amazing to share our love for Mario and I hope we'll continue to do so for as long as possible ❤️💚

I love you too, Riley, so so much! 🥰🫂💖

Happy Birthday, Mugi!! 🥳🥳🎉🎊🎈

Reaching the big 3-0– quite a milestone! I’m happy that I and many others here get to celebrate with you! You and your art continue to be a shining presence for me, and I’m so proud of you and how far you’ve come. I hope you have a day as awesome as you! I love you! ❤️

Now, here come the celebratory hugs!

Yep, I've finally reached level 30. I hope it gives my stats a nice boost rather than just more backaches😁 (I just need to work out more again and it should be fine!)

Thank you so much, Riley! You're very sweet🫶 I'm always grateful for your support on my art, and I appreciate you on a more personal level too as you always brighten up my dash. Come to think of it, it's almost been a year since I've given you the piece you're using as a pfp for your own birthday. Seeing that you've liked it enough not to change it this entire time brings me joy☺️

Thanks again, and have a happy Mar10 Day!

Thanks for the ask, Riley! Let's see whatcha want to know about me~

Based on this ask game:

11. Do you have a comfort item? Tell us about it!

At first I wanted to say no, but I suppose these two little guys are that for me:

I'm not much of a plush collector. Other than these, I only have one Kakashi plush I got from my sister as a teen and it still has a place on my bookshelf above all the mangas. But I'm glad I got myself these two. I like that they're posable and have plastic heads, which makes them nicely weighted, so if I put one or both of them on my chest it gives a small illusion of a hug. Kinda like a small weighted blanket😊 And they're wonderful sleeping companions, too. If I wake up in the middle of the night after a bad dream or feeling anxious or even simply hot, I like to hug them and put my forehead against their cool plastic heads. Works great.

Yes yes, I'm a grown man sleeping with plushies that could very well be called dolls, and you cannot stop me, haha😆

15. Comfort food?

Ah, now you're speaking my language😋 Some examples of my comfort foods include chicken noodle soup, spaghetti bolognese and dark chocolate.

21. Tea, coffee, or hot cocoa?

Yes. Hehe, I like them all, especially tea and coffee. Out of the three, I definitely drink tea of different kinds most often, while hot cocoa is a treat I only have every once in a while.

25. If your soul was a color, what would it be?

Ah, this question... It's like one of these random personality quizzes, huh?😆 I have no idea! I don't even necessarily believe in the existence of such a thing as a soul, but I suppose that's beside the point lol. My favorite colors are red and green (I know what it sounds like, but I swear it's a coincidence!), but would it make one of them the color of my soul?🤔 Not sure. A classmate once told me I was giving her an orange vibe as she was picking a marker for me to borrow, so maybe orange? I also once had a friend who was super into the supernatural and spiritual stuff and who said that my "aura" was white, whatever that means - so maybe white, then?🤷‍♂️ You might as well pick a color for me lol

For the ‘why are you following me’ ask: I first started following you for your amazing art! Your style adds so much charm to the characters you draw, and the level of detail is astounding! The time, effort and love you pour into your art is so evident, and it warms my heart to see you use it to make fanart for the fics you love, which also shows just what a generous and supportive person you are.

And the loyalty, kindness and support you give to me and so many others is inspiring and nothing short of priceless. Your heart shows itself in the way you try to do right by your friends, and they are lucky to have you. I know I am! ☺️❤️ I cherish our interactions, and I appreciate all the love and support you give me and my fics!

Also, being mutuals and friends with a fellow aroace feels nice too 🤜🏻🤛

(In regard to this)

Hello Riley👋 Always a pleasure to hear from you.

Thank you for your kind words about my art! They mean more than you know🥰 I really appreciate your continued support! As I've mentioned before, your reblogs are always such a treat to read! Great, thoughtful feedback and heartwarming enthusiasm every time, they always make me smile❤️

And you know it's just a matter of time before you'll get fanart from me, too, you'll see😄 I promise I wouldn't be talking about these plans so much if I wasn't determined to see them through!

Thank you also for your other compliments! I definitely try my best, and it's nice when people appreciate it.

Hmm that's true, us aroaces, being the special type of aliens that we are, gotta stick together as much as we can👽😁
