Terato thought # 6

Or thoughts I suppose Lol trying to make legit horror monsters a bit more sweet

•Stumbling into a monster couple’s domain there’s only one of them there and they insist you stay as a “dinner guest”. You survive only due to the fact that when this monsters spouse was parading as a human to test if you were going to leave them behind to save yourself when you don’t there’s no monsters out trying to kill you and it would have been the nicest dinner you’ve been too if you weren’t so spooked. The couple makes sure you bring a casserole home with you and you not to have a mild panic attack not even noticing a number on the sticky note attached to the tuberware

•curses and wishes gone terribly wrong will almost always have a monsters who feed off calamity behind it. while it seems like a normal day for both you and the monster the ending isn’t one any scary movie would ever expect. Your “friends” catch on fast to your immunity against everything from exploding cars to poisoned food they try killing you in your sleep and your monster shows up before despite all if the blood on them and how scary they look fear is no were near your thoughts on them in that moment they take you to a nice lil mom and pop dinner to help calm your nerves over food and you aren’t sure when it suddenly turned into a dare but you aren’t complaining

•you know exactly what you married and you know it’s just easier for both you and your lover to pretend you don’t know what they really are. You know they haven’t been eating right while trying to keep up their very bad human act. You can never out right say it but you leave their meat more raw and let them know you trust them and aren’t scared of them without ever giving away their true nature. There’s days however when you lye in bed your mind too troubled to even help yourself and on those days the shadows around you seem more larger and threatening to everyone near you waiting to strike if it means you’d feel better

•You have always felt bad for your grandmother who has lived by herself since the death of your grandfather many years before you even were born. Her home is still the same one she had at the beginning of her marriage and you’ve always wondered how she could stand being there for so long. It’s still beautiful right by the lake and after learning that your family is all to happy to send her to a home despite her almost perfect health you make an arrangement to live with her and “take care of her”. Which is ironic because she could definitely outdo you in every possible way. She even rises hours earlier than you to get a head start on her wood carvings almost all of them still have the same fish like creatures your grandmother has been inspired by even before your parents were born. It’s not long before you find out the truth behind your grandfather’s death and the lake isn’t just home to lil fishes instead there’s giant lake monsters that nearly give you a heart attack when you first see them… And it only gets worse when they start to follow you around everywhere like a lost puppy and refuse to leave your side. You try hiding them from your grandmother but that only works for so long before she starts to tease you about the hot catch you brought in…..

Terato thing I think about a lot #4

A modern monster with really naive and almost fairy tale like expecations they believe there is witches who live in houses that are able to move because they have chicken feet or that there’s magical moths whose soul purpose is to guide home lost children. You don’t ever say anything despite it bothering you for some unknown reason so you mull it over until you find one. And you get annoyed at the fact that you have the nerve to be peeved at them for actually believing in their hope and magic something you long ago had to leave behind. Your love had been trapped for most of their childhood their only source of knowledgeable about the outside was all storybooks. To this day you can find them reading them from time to time and with each time your own annoyance lessened and was replaced by doubt. There always a serene smile upon your monsters face as they revisited stories that kept them sane and it’s easy to see how every character matters to them. You hope that you are up to par with their visions of love and royalty too perfect for the likes of this world. You joke about them leaving you soon for a prince/princess soon which you get the cool Curt response of “To leave you would be to throw away love itself and I don’t think I am that foolish ”. Your heart beats out of control you can’t tell how long it had been for you waiting for someone to say something like that to you. Your monster nuzzles to your side and theres a tiny part of you that finally believes that maybe something fairy tale like is what you needed all along

Ghibli esque fairy tale #2

winter is always an awful time for your village and there is strict rules in place so that death doesn’t find its way to them. Each night belongs to the yuki-onna and  you don’t have a choice one night you have to run away from all the awfulness inside your own home and you can’t bring yourself to care about what happens next as long as you don’t die there you know you can find peace. you leave without shoes but your will to leave gets you past the border of the village and you wonder why nothing has happened to you yet. The moon is bright and you want to lay down and forget the pain running through you you think your wish is about to come true. There’s an otherworldly singing and you think it’s death herself going to take you away. When you wake it’s not the other side but it’s still far away from the world you know. A whole plate of fresh food is on the bedside and after spending a moment contemplating everything you take a strawberry before going to investigate your surroundings. It’s a big empty house with lovely but plain essentials. It’s outside you find the lady of the house and that gut feeling of not being in your own world is confirmed even more everything is too vivid. Your host has an area of ice and snow always surrounding her and even with the scars and blood scattered across her you still think she’s the most prettiest lady you have ever seen. “This is limbo and there’s no more paths you can travel on …. So I am giving you a choice today.” Her stare is distant and you guess that you’ve been here too many times to count. Your soul has been many people with hundreds of lives and you seek something that hasn’t been fulfilled in any of them. The memories come back to you in an odd way and it gives you the answer “Is there going to be an opening to be by your side? It’s such a shame your last assistant left you to do all this work….”. Your scared you had lost your chance forever until there’s that tiny smile “ To be fair it was never their fault for leaving im just glad they came back to me eventually” the flowers begin to bloom closer to her feet and the temp rises ever so slightly beside her. You started your lives with each other millions of years ago and within time you’d end it together as well

Little ways to test your fate

•Put on some burst bees pomegranate while thinking deeply about Persephone’s lips. Hades has a certain little club within the underworld waiting for you he’s the president of it so ~~~

•when you get into a fight with your moth s/o you simply turn off all the lights and they know better to be grumpy in the morning and talk through the problems with you despite the fact they never got home last night.

•finally telling your fey lover your true name (you don’t know it then but for whatever reason there is another fifty years added to your life for ‘no reason’…. Good thing you don’t know how they did it for you )

•defy death…….make out with a yautja, kiss their specs that line their skin and suddenly your life will not be anywhere near danger as they start demolishing the hordes of others who wish to tear you apart.

• not expecting Thorc’s hug to be as suffocating as it truly is (tight hugs are nice tho sometimes soo backk offf)

•run with werewolves , kiss carnivorous plant monsters and fall in love with old almost forgotten fire gods who sing your name always through every lit flame.
