Creamy Parmesan Italian Sausage Soup

being an older sibling is like. you've never known a life without me. mom yelled at me and it taught her she never wanted to yell at you. I painted my room purple and grey and then you did too. we live in the same house but I haven't spoken to you in months. I don't know your favorite color. I saw it was going to rain so I picked you up from school on my way home so your books wouldn't get wet. i was so worried when you woke up sick when you were three. you don't remember being sick. mom and dad made their worst mistakes with me and I'm glad they didn't make them with you. I'm doing everything for the first time so you won't be in the dark. I don't know any of your friend's names anymore. I used to know them all. if something happens to mom and dad you won't have to worry because everything will fall to me. you don't like to be home alone but even if you don't see me just knowing I'm there makes you feel better. at least that's what mom told me. you still give me jars to open for you because you can't quite get them. I only see you during dinner. i'd never even think about missing one of your concerts. I stand at the counter when I eat and now you do, too. when offered a selection of books you picked the same one I did when i was your age. I'm terrified you compare yourself to me. I love you. I don't know if you like me. I want you to. mom says dinner's ready

I don’t think anyone else has made this comparison before which is wild to me but Meowth is so Similar to Rocket Raccoon it’s uncanny?

Both:

Started out as ordinary, innocent young animals like any other of their species

Are now hyper intelligent gadgeteer geniuses who may as well be human as they speak and walk on two legs like any other human does complete with wearing clothes

Can translate animal/Pokémon even with their speaking of human language

Resorted to thievery after the world was cruel to them which are pivotal parts of their heartbreaking backstories

Became what they are now through tragic means with amounts of nerve damage or unnatural warping of their skeletal systems done to their bodies as a result of becoming bipedal

Are tough wisecracking jerkass smartass little guys with Brooklyn accents and hearts of gold

Are associated with the word rocket 🚀 with it having a special meaning to both of them

Are part of groups who became found family and found a place of belonging with them when they were rejected elsewhere

Are considered freaks of nature and dehumanized by most as specimens to be studied/experimented on/used for profit except for their found families who genuinely love them for who they are and affirm their humanity through treating them like they would any other person

We don’t particularly want to share it publicly yet, but if anyone is interested in reading the first four chapters we’ve written of a Cryptid AU involving Lovino and Feliciano, let me know!

It’s called The Archer, The Seer and The Creature and it technically has 2p Italy as well, but significantly more canon divergent. We’ve taken a lot of creative liberties with this but it’s by far some of our best work yet.

loving you was like holding onto a star, beautiful, but it always left me burned.

laughs in DID

happy first day of guardians of the galaxy holiday special season to all who celebrate!

Italy brothers character design in World Stars is the best
