Bar Red's Redemption ✔
"If you turn your back to me again, you better be bending over, sweetheart." *** Everyone warns you about boys who go looking for troubles, who have bruised knuckles and split lips, whose eyes are so dark that it seems like they could swallow oceans and come out alive, about the boys who look like danger, but no one warns about boys who stay silent for way too long, or ones with rings under their eyes, boys with sad eyes and boys who whisper things so sweet, so quietly that you wonder if he was an angel. Everyone warns you about the bad boys, but no one seems to warn you about the broken ones. Bar Red was a broken boy who finally finds someone to help mend his scattered pieces. Everyone saw him as the untrustworthy, unstable beast who was more than willing to punch anyone's face in. Swear words and bad habits mixed with smirks and wicked grins are enough to ward anyone off. But, apparently for Clementine, that's exactly what pulls her in. She has no clue what she's getting into but she's about to find out. She wasn't innocent, not by far, but she had dignity, a warm aura, niceness, and stubbornness that could rival a mule. Mix that with Bar's possessiveness and overprotective behavior, some interesting situations will definitely arise. Adding in the fact that Clementine had to tutor Bar for the rest of the school year and his almost instinctual urge to be apart of her life, they are bound to get close. Bar swears, Clementine hates it. He fights, she glares while bandaging up his knuckles. She reads instead of eats and he refuses dinner until she joins him. He is rude and she ignores him until he apologizes. Both, easily, frustrate the other while simultaneously falling into love. Broken boys are the only ones that can fix themselves so will this broken boy manage to do so before he drives away the one girl who wiggled her way past every barrier? This is the story of a broken bad boy clashing with the sad good girl. * #1 in the Red series Stand aloneComplete

Casino Cups (READER INSERT) (Eventually reader x Cuphead)
!NO LONGER BEING UPDATED! I'm in the process of rewriting this now, please go read that one. I mean you could read this one too...but go read the rewritten one after. Ok so idk how often this will be updated... BUT it will follow the blog for the most part. I don't usually put in art but if I do NO ART IS MINE. THE COVER IS NOT MINE EITHER. This is an AU of casino cups, but the idea itself rights go to Brightgoat and Camelart (I am so sorry if I spelled their name wrong...) This is my own version of casino cups, it for the most part follows the actual blog. Casino cups does not belong to me. Characters are not mine, nor is art. Now that that is clear.. Y/N L/N was the childhood best friend of the cupbros, but moved to Inkwell City when they turned 13. They hear about Cuphead and Mugman defeating the Devil, and they want answers. They desperately miss their friends and want to know what really happened. This description is getting really long but.. Reader is Gender Neutral, so They/Them pronouns. If I mess up a few times on the pronouns, tell me and I'll fix it immediately. Reader is a cup I think..? I'm not sure how it works and it really doesn't matter; but I guess Reader will be a cup but it doesn't matter so if you rather not be a cup then it's fine. !THIS IS A READER INSERT! Eventually, this will be a Casino!Cuphead x Reader. But that's after the story develops because Cuphead doesn't exactly know what love means yet. So let's put it this way. Throughout the entire story, Cuphead likes Y/N, Y/N likes Cuphead. Y/N knows what it means, Cuphead does not. Around the truth or dare part he does I think. I'll put more details in the first part of this story since the description is getting long. If you made it down here then here's some cookies 🍪🍪 Hope you like the story!!Complete
