you ain't my boyfriend, i ain't your girlfriend
Based on the song "Boyfriend" by Ariana Grande & Social House
masterlist
——————————————————————————
Tumblr media
“Do you think anyone in the friend group is dating?” Lydia inquired while you threw on an oversized shirt over your swimsuit.
You raised a brow. “I mean, Jett and Samantha.”
“I already know about them.”
"Well...no? Why?" you asked.
"I don't know why, but I feel like Vinnie and Julia have something going on."
That got your attention.
"Huh?"
"I mean, I could be wrong. I just see them together a lot it seems, so I wondered." She shrugged.
"Well-" you started. "They haven't even known each other that long."
"True. Just a thought."
You both went from your spot in the guest room across the hallway to Vinnie's room to call him downstairs.
Upon arriving, you hear laughing from two people. You didn't think anything of it until you saw Vinnie and Julia side by side on the bed, him showing her a something on his phone and she's the main one laughing.
"Hey!" Lydia greeted. "We were just trying to get everyone downstairs. Jett is firing up the grill as we speak."
"Cool, I'm sure my sister is looking for me anyways." Julia stated and got up from the foot of the bed."
She made eye contact with you and you gave her a closed mouth smile. She walked away with a little attitude in her hips and you felt your chest twist up when you saw Vinnie's eyes follow her out the room.
Why would Lydia put that thought in your head? If you hadn't already disliked the idea of them together, you surely did now.
Vinnie followed you both downstairs. Jack had planned a get together with all the friends... just because. There was even a water slide in the backyard.
These people could be so extra, but they were fun regardless.
You mingled around, talking to friends and saying hello to any new people. Every once in a while, you'd see Julia standing next to Vinnie, recording him for whatever reason. You felt yourself getting hot and didn't even realized you eyed her up and down until after.
Anyways.
A few minutes later, you met up with Evan in the backyard by the pool, a friend you met through Vinnie, but didn't know all too well yet.
"Hey!" you greeted him and brought him into a hug. "How have you been?"
"I've been good." he smiled.
"You just had a birthday right?"
"Yeah!" he smiled wider like he was happy you remembered.
"Well happy belated." you said and gave him another hug. "Sorry I couldn't be there."
"Thanks. It's cool though." he hugged you back.
You two began to catch up on things that recently happened in your lives since the last time you saw each other. Which was a while ago. He's so nice and easy to talk to. You wonder why you never really talked that much to each other before.
What you didn't know, was that Vinnie was observing the entire interaction.
He was sitting on top of the table a few feet away, talking to Jordan when seeing you with Evan started to distract him. He was looking past Jordan and subtly leaning forward to get a better look, nearly missing every other word he was saying but trying not to seem obvious.
(Refer to the picture I used)
And if looks could kill, Evan would be done for.
****
You were in the kitchen sipping on your drink when Vinnie approached you, and leaned against the counter with his arms causally across his chest.
“Hey.”
You gave him a nod back.
"What are you doing over here by yourself?"
"Got me a drink." you gestured to your glass. Sometimes you got so nervous around him that you couldn't even look him in the eye.
Vinnie glances over at the people in his line of sight and he gets a glimpse of Evan walking across the room.
"There go your boyfriend." he uttered, trying to hide that proud smirk on his face knowing he probably hit a nerve.
"Huh?" you quickly turned in his direction.
He dipped his head down by your ear and you swore you could feel his lips graze it. "Evan." he simply stated as if he wasn't annoyed by the idea.
You hated how cheeky he was being. You heard him perfectly fine.
"We're not dating." you revealed in defense.
"Well it's obvious that he wants to hit. It's embarrassing actually."
You rolled your eyes. "You have no idea what you're talking about."
Then you remembered a someone who'd been by Vinnie's side since she got here.
"Why are you talking about me? What about you and Julia?"
Now it was his turn to get defensive.
"Me and Julia?? Who told you that?"
"A little birdie told me." you shrugged.
"We don't have anything going on. I mean, she's cool and all but I don't know her like that. And she's more of Payton's friend than mine."
"Hmm," you said in response as if you weren't convinced.
Vinnie scoffed. "Whatever. It's not like you and I are dating anyway."
"Yeah, so lets just drop it." you agreed.
"Fine."
"Fine."
"Good."
"Good."
He was about to say something else but your stubborn ass wasn't about to let him have the last word.
You finished your drink in one swing before stating, "excuse me" as you put the glass to his chest and he grabbed in on instinct to not let it fall as you let go of it before making your way to the backyard again.
You both smirked behind each other's backs as the bickering made you like each other even more.

hey.
okay. hello! i'm back. :)
maybe you noticed, maybe not, but i have been away for a while.
i wish i could say i've been out living my life, so caught up in happiness and joy and loving each day that i've just not had time for tumblr. but....that is not true. i have been having a tough time! being away has been good, as i've had time to do other things that i like and to put energy into my own well-being, but it hasn't been the best time, I'll tell you that.
i peeked on the dash every now and then to keep my queue full and reblogged soothing things to my main blog and tried my best not to feel guilty about it all (i was also booping on April 1 lol). i just...I really needed a break. i've really enjoyed being here the last six or so months as i've changed my blog and entered the pedro/tlou space but i've also felt so, so alone.
and i know that it doesn't really matter!! like, we should all take breaks and go outside and all that stuff. and I know plenty of people are not very active, but this blog has been such a vital part of my life and happiness since I started it almost two years ago, so any lapse in activity feels like a loss. I've met lifelong friends and flexed my writing muscles and learned a hell of a lot. the fact that I have started to feel isolated and alone on here is a sort of personal betrayal, and there is no one to blame but myself.
So, I’m pulling back.
it means a few things — i don’t know how much writing I’ll be doing from now on. For Joel, especially — it’s been wonderful to meet folks in that community but it has also been really detrimental to my passion for both the game and writing. I’d like to return to some other characters on my masterlist, but we’ll see. I’ve got endless personal projects away from tumblr that I want to pour love and time into (my non-reader fics, my newsletter, a romance novel, a sci-fi novel, poetry, etc). I need to fall in love with my own work again.
it's a me problem, I want to stress that. i'm working on it! irl stuff has been kicking my ass. I've had a really, really hard winter and my mental health has suffered probably more than ever before. i let things I love -- like this blog -- fester and become negative and no longer being me joy. writing became stressful and difficult and I was focused on notes and interaction and looking around me and seeing success and then looking at myself and only seeing lack.
but that's why I took a break! i am getting help and support irl, i am putting in the time and effort to feel better about being alive and to be a better friend and person all around. And I want to tell you all about it because I am so grateful for your time and attention and support, even if we’re just strangers on the internet. i know this probably seems silly -- who cares about a fanfic blog? well, i care! i care a lot! it matters to me and therefore it matters!
anyway. on to the important stuff. here I am! and here's what's going to happen on this blog:
I am working on replying to asks and reblogs and comments I missed. Thank you for being patient with me! I don't know if I'll get to them all but know I see them and I am honored every single time.
I made a totally separate ao3 account with this blog url. I'm working on uploading everything I've posted here onto there and hopefully will continue to crosspost. It is going to take a long, long time, so please be patient! (you can follow my other ao3 here for my non x-reader fanfic).
I posted this fic! Jackson!Joel pulled me back into his world. It’s the first thing I’ve written in ages, so let me know what you think. as of now it's the last planned fic for that series, but who knows!
I hit a milestone while i was away that I am absolutely blown away by. I'm planning a celebration around it sometime this spring (hopefully) and I’d love to see you participate :)
lastly, thank you so much to my friends for letting me complain, whine, winge, etc. I am so sorry for missing all of your work, your celebrations, your bright energies, and all the rest. i am so sorry if it seemed like i was ignoring you. you are my guiding lights, my silver linings, my touchstones. you make me want to be here. i will try to make it up to you!
I want to be online less but make sure I’m connecting more in the moments that i am here. I want to pressure myself to write less and not feel bad that I’m not engaged all the time. I want this blog to once again feel like a place that nourishes me and not sucks me dry. i want to stop feeling like shit about all of it!!!!
so. come hang out in my inbox, my dms, let me know what you've been up to. I am really sorry for missing so much. thank you for sticking around. <3

Oh hi @bixell-pixell I'll include you even if we're not mutuals I think you're pretty chill all things considered
That's kinda it idk you that well
Anyways
You didn't specify so I'm going to list all my mutuals in the order of oldest to newest on my following page that I remember sorry of I missed anyone and for the @ s
*inhales*
@e-the-village-cryptid (I don't have a tag for e yet but it would probably just be E)
Not only the first person who I became friends with here but also the first one I ever started sharing my stories with, even if we don't talk too much I'm glad Every time we do and I see them on my dash, (they bring some of my favorite posts and when I do send posts sometimes I mix up and send them their own reblogs) I'm so glad we're still friends, thanks for letting me ramble about stuff for 6 hours hehe
@jaqofallgenders (no tag for jaq yet either)
my in person friend and the longest friendship I've ever had with someone, love you 🫶. I'll be more specific on Monday if our ADHD doesn't kick in and make us both forget
@strawberry-seal77 (seal-berry!!!)
Hi hi hi yellows my friend 👋 the person I consider to be the second ever friend I made on here, a lovely person as well and wait waaa and an amazing artist too 👀??? Love you silly goofball and the amazing posts and jokes you have we should chat more often I thinkith.
@rabid-mercenary16 (Rabid jumpscare)
Hey hey hey .... BWAMP! Hope you feel better soon
I probably have the most to say about Rabid but all try to make it a bit shorter. besides being the first artist to do art jokes and include me, with we also became mutuals and interacting around a time when my life started to get a lot better. Even if she's not the only factor in that I definitely associate her with stuff improving, and she did play a big factor in it (I already explained a lot on my Valentine's Day gift to her and the others). Also she's just an awesome person to spend time with and be goofy, amazing sense of humor and I just love being friends with such an awesome person and artist.
@dia-smthidk (Dia fren)
I'm assuming you don't want a bowl of soup
I also said a lot about them in my Valentine's Day gift, but we've become closer friends sense then even if we don't get to chat as much as I'd like to. I relate a lot and am surprised how we have so much in common. Amazing artist and person as well and I wish we could hang out more, idc if they think they're bringing down the mood when/if they bring stuff up about irl, and maybe I won't figure out their timezone but oh well, please take care of yourself gender sibling.

Bun deserves the world and they keep sending me opposum images!!! Gona die from cuteness and his kindness one of these days istg
@spookykittyzzz (greaah why don't I have a tag for you???)
A very kind person and artist I don't know too much sense we're not that close yet but love the few chats we have had so far. Hope we get to hang out more even if I'm awful at reaching out to others and saying hi.
@glitchyk (goop buddies)!!
Nooo the parallels
One of the first people who was interested to deep dive into my creations and ask about my stories and worlds They're probably competing with Rabid with how much I have to say about her/silly. Seriously it's incredible how much we have in common and now I get to share and collaborate our sonas stories together it's amazing. And as someone once said "you can yap for hours". I love how creative and clever they are, I just wish they would be kinder to herself. One day I'll make glichy see how awesome she is.
@unfunnyaceartist (Floridian disadvantage) I feel like I should change that
When I say I was shookith when ace asked to be friends I mean I was shookith first person so show up and ask that (the others kinda just happened). Amazing artist and don't believe her lies she is funny. I'm so heckn glad we're friends., love the goofy and silly idc if she's a bit of a simp they've helped me a lot start to understand slang and references I'm supposed to understand shhshsh (such is the curse of how I grew up) we need to make our mafia sonas interact at some point I can already imagine the chaos /silly
@neptunestoast (plushy slime)
Hugs hugs hugs*
Trying my best not to baby talk I swear. amazing person first person to show up and be like "hey I Wana do something for you and your friends". Love their humor and another gender sibling!!! Hugs for ever for as long as they're ok with it. I love their creativity as well and Noodle is so adorable. I just want to pick them up in a hug so much. Kibbity/silly
@ner5y (no tag woops ill figure something out)
What are you doing here??? How are we friends???
I was absolutely confused and startled when they followed me especially since it was during a spoons argument . Amazing artist like holy heck I wish I was allowed to curse on this blog. Their humor also took me by surprise when I got invited to the discord, and even if they doubt how well they're running it I think they're doing amazing. And I love our silly interactions like this one
Tumblr media
@vexation-816 (chaotic ADHD buddy!!!)
Why did it take me so long to follow you istg
ADHD ADHD ADHD my buddy oh pal we both got that and it's driving us insane/silly. Love how creative he is and the ideas for his sona and character lore. Also one of the first people who shared a character they added to my nightlight au. This is getting twords the end and I'm tired of whiting so much and am on a timer oh no. But your amazing dude don't ever forget thag
@butlerbugbunny (anxiety bunny buddy)
This is why I didn't respond to the DM yet hshsh
New friend who I feel anxious talking to sometimes but a wonderful kind bunny who I'm also incredibly happy to be friends with. Love his art so much it's amazing (shoot shoot timer is going off) I'm glad he's their for bun and wish them the best I possibly can 🫶.
@lilithloves-you (lillith my be-loathed?) need to change that
Don't you dare bring up grilled cheese

hello, changing this whole thing since it's crappy and shit. anyways.
Welcome to my blog! this is mainly an RP blog for UTQV, or undertale queerverse, by @/nightmareishomophobic and @/thelunarsystemwrites (i think lunar helped? i am not sure, but i do know they made the name?) for aroace fell sans! and for his brother papyrus, who is trans masculine! (but he isn't in the UTQV and is simply a side character for this blog)
this blog is run by a MINOR, so only SFW interactions only! (swearing is allowed, BUT NO SLURS! I DO NOT WANT ANY SLURS IN MY INBOX AT ALL!) and more specifically, a minor who is at least 70% exhausted so..yeah.
oh yeah, forgot to introduce myself- my name is star or starz idrc, i am a queer minor (that sounds kinda funny actually..-) that just wants a safespace for anyone alike!
i am a panromantic (pansexual + aromantic) transmasc minor that also uses neo pronouns Ne/Nem/Nemself! but i don't particularly mind he/him nor they/them! (no she/her pronouns on me tho, only stuff like "ma'am, miss, lady" etc i am fine with those but no using of she/her! thank you.)
and if my blog name sounds familiar? hi! because you might know my other blog, aka @fellissuffering i lost that one due to a..mishap, let's say. (i also used to have two other blogs like @lewisiastar & @ask-repeatedreincarnation. those blogs are dead now! do not send asks to any of them!)
and if you want to ask me or fell anything (or just want to come by, that's cool too) here are the rules (kinda?) for that. :)
ASKS THAT I FEEL COMFORTABLE ANSWERING (AS ME OR FELL, IT WORKS EITHER WAY)
people asking for RP's, and asking some stuff about fell, being curious what fell is like, etc etc.
people just sending in with any color associated tag stuff, listing down favorites etc etc.
people being genuinely curious of the AU itself! ^^
people asking if fell is alright? uh, weird choice but okay then!
people just coming by to say hello! hello to you too ^^!
ASKS THAT I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE ANSWERING (AT ALL.)
asking what fell would be like as a father, when he would be one etc.
NSFW ASKS! (i haven't gotten them yet, thank god, but better safe than sorry.)
scam asks/or asks that looks like scams or ai. (haven't got 'em yet but again, better safe than sorry.)
bigot's/p3d0's/proshippers/comshippers etc etc. coming in and asking me stuff! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED HERE AT ALL!
if you have any questions for me or fell specifically, pls specify who your asking if you can? i don't want to accidentally answer it as fell or me at all and ruin it :(.

Stuck forever (by the glue)
A/n// hello! So this is a small thing that I thought of today, so sorry if it’s absolutely terrible! But it’s something to put out before I put out a long fic and finish request. So I hope you all enjoy!
Warning// kissing, swearing maybe?, jealous Wilbur, Wilbur and reader being cute, a pinch of angst if you look close enough, but pure fluff other than that. This is complete garbage :) (If I missed anything please tell me )
Tumblr media
“Did you see that?! You saw that right?!” Wilbur asked James as he pointed at where you stood.
You and a bunch of your friends were at a get together with a bunch of different people. And when you went to go grab another drink for you and Wilbur, you got stopped by a guy you’ve never seen before, but you gladly made conversation with him.
Wilbur had other thoughts. He was never the “jealous” type. But he definitely didn’t like when other people looked at you like….that.
“Will, what are you talking about?” James asked, confused as he also watched the two interact with each other. “He literally did nothing.” He said looking at Wilbur with a scrunched face.
“No. No. He looked at them like…… like the way I look at them! Like they’re the most perfect thing in the world. I mean.. I’m happy he thinks it too but I can only look at them like that!” Wilbur struggled to get out as he looked at James quickly with desperate eyes before returning them back to you and the mystery man.
James quickly realized what Wilbur was at and smirked. “You’re jealous, aren’t you?” He asked as he turned his body towards Wilbur.
“I- What?! no! I’m not jealous! I’m just… angry? I don’t know! I just don’t like the way he’s looking at them.”
“Like a completely normal person?! Will just admit it. Your jealous. It’s fine, I get it! But trust me when I say, you’re fine. Y/n loves you. A lot.” James reassured Wilbur as he fell back on the couch and sighed.
“You’re right. Thanks James.” Wilbur said as he fixed his beanie over his hair, the hair you kept bugging him about to get cut.
“Anytime. Now go over there and get out of here. This party sucks anyways.” James said as he down his drink and walked over to where Aria and Ash were.
Wilbur sighed and walked over to where you were talking to the guy. ‘Ok Will. Just act normal. You’re fine.’ He thought to himself.
“Hello darling, who’s this?” Wilbur asked you as he slipped his arms around your torso from behind you. He looked at the man as he rested his head on top of yours.
“Oh! Wilbur this is John. John this is Wilbur-“
“Their boyfriend.” Will cut you off, cockily smirking at John.
“Oh? Boyfriend?” John asked, his face falling into one of realization and panic. As this all happened, you just smiled at the ground and held Wilbur’s forearms that were around your waist, knowing full well your beloved boyfriend was jealous. “I- I actually have to go. Uh, it was lovely meeting you!” John said as he quickly grab a drink and left.
“You too!” You yelled over the music and the distance already put in between you both. “Really? Was that necessary?” You asked Will as you turned in his arms and raised your eyebrow at him.
“Yes, now let’s go home. I’m tired and want cuddles.” He said as he took your hand in his and started to pull you towards the door.
“Wait Wil- Ok well! Bye guys, get home safe please!” You told James and the others with him as you past them. As you both finally left the apartment and into the fresh, yet cold air, you took a deep breath in before looking at Wilbur. “Ok. What was that back there? Were you jealous?!” You slightly yelled at Wilbur as you both started walking back to your shared apartment.
“Can you be quiet?! Also no I wasn’t! I was just simply telling that man-“
“John.”
“John, that you are not available. Simple as that.” Wilbur concluded as he looked at the ground and shoved his hands in his coat pocket, a frown evident on his face.
Your face fell as you soon realized what Wilbur was getting at. “Hey, woah, woah. Talk to me. What’s wrong?” You asked him as you stepped in front of him, stopping him from walking and looked him in the eye. “What’s going on?”
“I- I’m afraid. That you’ll find someone else. Someone better. And I know you love me but that thought still lingers in my head every time someone talks to you. And I don’t know why.” Wilbur looks down at the ground again as you sigh and gently push his chin up to look at you.
“Hey. Look at me. I love you. So much. And if you think me talking to some person I probably won’t ever see again will lead to me leaving you, you’re insane. You are my other half. I can’t be without you, Will. I love you. And only you.” You finish as you lean up and kiss him. Wilbur gently kisses you back as he wraps his arms around your waist, pulling you into him. The kiss continued for some time, gentle and full of love, until you both had to pull back for air.
Wilbur sighed and placed his forehead on yours. “I love you more, my dear. Only you. Always. I’m sorry for being jealous.” He whispers the last part, not wanting to admit his feelings.
“See! You admit it! And it’s fine darling. I promise.” You say as you take his beanie off and mess up his hair. “Also, if you love me that much, you would get a haircut.” You tell Wilbur as you started to walk away from him.
“Ok fine. I’ll set up an appointment, just for you.” He said as he grabbed his beanie back from you and tucked his hair back into the hat. You grabbed his hand as you both fell into a steady motion.
“Hey. Think about it this way. We’re stuck together. Like glue. Forever. Sounds fun right?!” You ask him as you looks at him.
“Sounds absolutely fantastic my love.” Wilbur said genuinely as you smiled widely at him and kissed the back of his hand.

Hey!! I love your work here !! Itd be awesome if you could make a part 2 please!! <3
omg I am so happy I finally got a submission <3 I appreciate this so much, anyways, your wish is my command so here's part 2!
JUJUTSU KAISEN MEN AND A SINGLE MOM PT 2!
Hi! I originally wrote these scenarios for Haikyuu men, but since I made the decision to write for jjk as well, I figured this will be a fitting scenario for jjk men, please note that some of the characters are aged up and my ask box is and comments are open for suggestions, also take note that some of the plots may have been twisted to be more suitable for the scenario
TOJI FUSHIGURO
I am finally writing for this man vbcjhsbd am entering dangerous territory here
After his wife died, Toji has done nothing but to try and compensate for her absence to their two children, Tsumiki and Megumi
Tsumiki was in first grade, Megumi was in kindergarten and Toji was busy running his company to ensure the stability of the future of his children, despite being a busy multi-millionaire businessman, Toji has made it a point to always spend time with his children
may it be making breakfast for them in the morning and sending them off to school, or giving the both of them bubble baths at night to relax their tiny bodies after a long day at school and tucking them in while reading a bedtime story
he was always present in school activities which made other moms and teachers doll up a little bit extra, and today was no different day
Toji was carrying Megumi who was in his PE uniform and Tsumiki who was wearing a pretty pink dress was holding his right hand, it was Megumi's sports day, and it was the perfect time for him to bond with his children
there were a lot of people, and most of them came as a family, supporting their little ones in this little school activity, Megumi was part of the track and field competition which doesn't start in three hours
the trio decided to walk around the school when Tsumiki bumped into a little figure, it was a toddler walking alone in the middle of a sport festival
the toddler looked up and smiled brightly at them, she was so small and her hair was tied into two space buns, she was wearing a white dress with little flowers on it
Tsumiki was instantly in love, she always wanted a sister
"I'm so sorry baby" she says as she hugs the little girl
It seems like Megumi was smitten interested as well because he asks Toji to let him down and pinches the cheeks of the toddler as well, and when the baby looks up at him and smiles brightly while he was still holding her cheeks
Megumi was bright red and just blurted out "dad, let's take her home"
Toji was tempted if he was honest, the baby is extraordinarily adorable, Toji has been a single dad for as five years now, and he'd be lying if he said he didn't have baby fever from time to time
He dedicated most of his time being a breadwinner and a doting father that he did not step back into the dating world
Toji was snapped out of his trance when he hears a feminine giggle, he looks down and there you were, in all your glory
"I see you found my little Yua" you smiled at the two children
"Are you baby's mama?" Tsumiki asks
you smiled and nodded "I am, her name is Yua" you said
"you're so pretty ma'am, I'm Tsumiki and this is my brother Megumi" Tsumiki says shyly as she points at her younger brother which made you chuckle and bent down to their level
"well aren't you just sweet and lovely children" you said while fixing Tsumiki's hair and pinching Megumi's cheeks
Toji cleared his throat, he was there the whole time. This is one of the few times that Toji actually sees his children interacting with a woman who's actually a mother
you looked up to the big man in front of you and greeted him politely
"Hello sir, I assume you're Megumi-chan and Tsumiki-chan's dad?" you asked cautiously
"that's right, Toji Fushiguro, Misis..?" he asks for your name
"It's actually a Miss, Y/N btw" you smiled and extended your hand for a handshake which he took
Toji raises his left eyebrow, you were a single mom too? well hot damn was it his lucky day?
he feels a little hand tap his knee, it was Yua who had her arms outstretched at him, he quickly leans down and carries her, he looks at you talking with his children
"Megumi's competition is today he's nervous" Tsumiki says
you look at Megumi and held his cheeks in between your hands
"why are you nervous Megumi?" you asked
"what if I lose?" Megumi answers timidly
"well, what if you lose?" you smiled knowingly at him
Megumi tilted his head to the side
"if you lose, well you don't get a medal, and that's about it, sounds boring doesn't it?"
Megumi just stared at you
"How about instead of trying hard to get a medal, try your best to have a good time instead? I'm sure that's what you're dad asks of you as well” you smiled at the dark-haired boy
he gives you a little smile and nod
“can I ask for a hug?” 
Toji was shocked, Megumi is never affectionate with women except for Tsumiki, his wife died when she gave birth to Megumi so Megumi wasn’t able to experience any maternal love 
you smiled and outstretched your hand for the little boy to hug you
His dad was staring at you from a distance, from a widowed husband who has no intentions of dating, he was now raking his brain to come up with excuses to not let this interaction end
why would he ever let this end? you were an absolute angel, he could see the longing in his children’s eyes when they look at you, not to mention the little bundle of joy that he was carrying right now carved her way into his heart
and you, you were just perfect in his eyes, he’s a multi-million businessman and it’s probably not a smart thing to say, but you, a stranger, swept him off his feet
he can’t remember when was the last time he felt this way, but one thing’s for sure
he will do everything he can in his power to make you his.
NANAMI KENTO
away from the morbid world of Jujutsu, Nanami likes to appreciate the small things in life
he isn’t a fan of crowded places but he also hates staying at home during his day off and rot away on his couch, so he goes out and strolls around areas that are not too crowded
if there’s one thing Nanami likes aside from sleep, it’s literature, it helps him escape from the kind of world he lives in 
so on this day off, he decided to visit a bookstore that’s also a café, he’s been eyeing it for some time now and it’s in a hidden part of Tokyo, he also made sure to go there on a weekday so that fewer people will come in
When Nanami walked in he was greeted by the scent of bread, coffee, old books and a small giggle from a little boy 
Nanami whips his head to where the sound was coming from and then he saw you, you were in a brown dress, your hair tied neatly on a bun and you had your son in your lap playing with him which elicited the melodic giggles 
Nanami was stunned for a minute, he couldn’t move for a good fifteen seconds 
he never thought he’d see you again, but here you were
Nanami was now looking at the face of the girl from the bakery he used to go to when he quit being a sorcerer and became a salaryman
you still had the same brightness in your eyes, but something was different, it was so motherly
you looked as beautiful as the day he left that bakery and decided to return to the Jujutsu world
Nanami was happy to see you, being happy with your son, you must have lived a good life, you have a son, and hopefully an amazing husband as well
but who was he kidding? Nanami did not regret returning to the Jujutsu world, if he had one thing he regretted, it would be not telling you how he felt, it was not telling you that he wasn’t there for the bread, but for your smile that melted away his exhaustion, he went to that bakery to hear your bright voice greeting him, to have you say “are you having a good day so far sir?”, you charmed him the moment he entered that bakery, and you still do now, after seven years, he entered the café he assumes you own 
you noticed him and gave him the same exact smile, 
“I haven’t seen you in a while sir” you greeted him 
Nanami walks over to you on the counter “seven years huh? I see you got your own little space now” he states, a ghost of smile appearing on his thin lips
“I know, ironic isn’t it? I got a son now too” you chuckled and looked at your son who was sitting comfortably on his own chair 
Nanami looked at your son closely, he looked a lot like you, so much actually that he would think you made him by yourself 
“he’s name is Aoki” you say as you brush your son’s hair away from his face which made him scrunch his face
adorable. Nanami says inside his head 
“your husband must be lucky” he can’t help but blurt out
you smiled sadly “if he was so lucky he wouldn’t die so early”
Nanami looks at you and mumbles a small “sorry” 
you wave your hand and smile at him “don’t worry, I’ve actually been wanting to talk to you sir”
it’s embarrassing but Nanami can’t help but feel a little joy hearing those words coming out of your mouth 
“about what? and please do call me Nanami” he says 
you offered to make him coffee and serve him bread as you sat down on one of the tables of your café, after all, you were the only person there anyway
“my husband died two years ago, Aoki was just a month old...” you started and Nanami looks at you intently
“he... he was different... like you, he was a Jujutsu Sorcerer” 
Nanami was shocked, you knew he was a Jujutsu Sorcerer all along? 
“I- I only figured out that you were one when I recalled the time you fixed my shoulder problem at the bakery and compared it to my husband’s ability” you explained
“my husband died a tragic death, but I am worried for my son, I don’t-, I don’t know how to deal with him if he is bound to have the same abilities as his father” the distress in your voice was clear and it was understandable
Nanami looked at you with the same stoic eyes, but it was a sympathetic one
Nanami did not what to feel, he walks in and found the woman he loved for eight years with a son, but later founds out she was widowed, and her son has the possibility of having cursed energy
Nanami was confused as to how he felt at the moment, his emotions were changing the whole time, but if there was one feeling that stuck to him the whole time, it was the loud pounding of his heart against his ribs, the tingling in his stomach, and the immense joy of seeing you after a long time
Nanami wasn’t going to waste this time again, he was going to win you over, he was going to do it slowly but surely
he looks at the toddler on your lap and he takes him from you, he could feel the subtle cursed energy radiating off his tiny body, and just like that, Nanami knew that Aoki was set to live in a world where hideous monsters are seen through his eyes, he wasn’t blessed with the ignorance majority of the people get to experience 
right at that moment when Nanami felt Aoki in his chest, he promised himself that he was going to protect him and you at all costs
Nanami has always been living for the sake of other people, for people who need him, for his dead best friend, but today, he finally found a reason to live for himself 
he wanted to have you, he wanted to protect you, he wanted to protect the ray of sunshine he was holding right now, he wanted to protect his happiness 
he was greedy. the bliss he feels right now? he’d want to experience it forever if he could
and he’ll start by winning you over first, so please expect a handsome Jujutsu Sorcerer to visit your little café probably more often than he should

Tumblr media
hey everyone!! so, originally, i wanted to do one of these back when all of y'all were posting your 'follow forever' + favorite blogs lists for new year's eve, but at that point in time i didn't feel like i knew anyone well enough to make a full list. but now, it's been almost nine months (holy shit!!!) since i joined this fandom, and there have been so many people that i've connected with and who have made my experience on here so much fun and so special.
plus...it's my birthday today, so i thought - what better way to celebrate it than to show my immense love & appreciation for all my mutuals, followers friends, and anyone who has ever made my tumblr experience better?
this isn't really in any particular order, and also, i am so so sorry if i forgot anyone. i had to type this out at least six times over the past two months because tumblr kept deleting my progress for some reason, so i'm really sorry if i missed anyone because of it. i recognize the urls of anyone that regularly interacts with my posts, so i promise that if you've ever left nice tags in the reblogs of my gifs or replied to any of my WIPS or tagged me in a gifset or in a tag game or sent me a nice ask or anything at all, really, please know that i think you're wonderful and i love you all so much even if tumblr hates me and decided to erase all of the evidence of it 😅
okay, enough dillydallying!! putting this under a cut so that it doesn't swallow ur dash whole....n here we go :)

@basiltonpitch spencer!! i feel the need to echo the first thing i said to you and remind you that i think you're a genius :') fun fact that i haven't told you: when i first found your blog, even before i realized that you were That person who wrote the benvi meta that i loved, the first posts that i saw from you were your beautiful web weavings, and i was immediately like Who is this person??? and Who gave them the permission to stomp all over my heart like this?? wtf?? i just. i love ur brain So so much and i'm so grateful that i get to enjoy your creativity in not one but two of my favorite fandoms (soon to be 3 with 911 maybe?) oh also...this is slightly embarrassing but i've gone back through your blog a few times just so i can read your incredible meta because all of your thoughts are so valuable to me. you are the Only person on this site that i trust to Get devi vishwakumar and one of the biggest reasons why i'm so excited for never have i ever s4 to drop is so that i can experience it alongside you!! and even outside of your creative genius, you are one of my favorite people to talk to bc you're so kind and so supportive and such an absolute sweetheart and i really love hearing everything you have to say. so. um. basically. i am just a Spencer Enthusiast through and through 💖
@padmedala carson!! hello!! first off, i've said this to you a million times, but i want to thank you once again for writing one of my favorite pieces of byler fanfiction. do you know that one post about reading fanfics and having to stop because 'he would not say that?' well, your work is the epitome of reading a fic and feeling wholly satisfied because yes, he would say that - in fact, i would not hesitate for a minute to say that you have the strongest grasp on will and mike's characterization - especially their dynamic together - out of any writer i've met in this entire fandom. like...i enjoy your writing so much that i've read a couple of your pieces for IT despite not having any knowledge of the source material simply because i wanted to experience more of your work. you're also such a deeply kind and supportive person, and you have no idea how much i appreciate every single time you've checked up on me or sent me a sweet message or even just dropped into my inbox to say hello. you make my dash infinitely brighter, and i'm so very glad to know you and have you as a friend on here 💞
@wllbyers dani!! hi!! i have so much to say abt how wonderful you are, and i was struggling w how to articulate this for a while, but then i remembered that you once said to me that you found my presence on the dash comforting, and honestly, that's exactly how i feel about you. forgive me for the awkward metaphor, but seeing you on the dash is like coming home after a long day and having a warm, home-cooked meal. seeing your url and icon always makes me smile, and i'm so grateful that we're mutuals because of how kind, considerate, and utterly genuine you are!! i don't know if i'm describing this right, but you just feel so real, you know? i feel like your personality shines through with every post you make, and i always love seeing it. and i'm sorry if this is weird to say, but your openness and your authenticity about everything going on in your life makes me feel a little bit less alone about my own struggles. also do you remember when you started watching 911 and eventually ended up getting ahead of me, and you tagged each and every one of your posts just so that i wouldn't get spoiled? i know it seems simple, but the sheer fact that you thought of doing that just for me had me melting into a little puddle w my face looking like that one meme of kristen bell. you are just so, so lovely and i'm unbelievably glad we're mutuals 🥰
@willblogger ima i've said this many times before but i absolutely Need to say it again: you are genuinely the funniest person on byler tumblr. i cannot count the number of times that you've made me full-on belly laugh (to the point where my stomach starts to hurt) and completely destroyed my attempts to casually and inconspicuously scroll through tumblr in public places. i dunno how you do it at all but every single thing you say is such an absolute delight and i am always giggling n kicking my feet when i read the tags on all of your posts. the thousands of people on tiktok and twitter copying your jokes could never do it like you. you've also got this deep understanding of the way the text has been written and i really appreciate how your analysis honors the characters as they are instead of trying to make them more palatable them for this fandom. it's just. it's rare to find people that love these characters as they are and understand them as well as you do and i feel very lucky to have found your blog. also this is not related at all but ur plushies are cute as fuck & i love them :) OH!! n thank u sm for being my number one stevebucky enthusiast mutual n partner in rage when it comes to avengers endgame!! can't wait to have a hate party w you (if you'd like) in five days 💗
@willelfanpage SARA HI HELLO do u see me waving at you. this is me holding up a banner screaming abt how much i love you. as the resident fandom cheerleader who gives and gives and gives so much love to everyone she interacts with, you deserve someone cheering YOU back on and that is what i am here to do!! you are so brilliant and you have never made an incorrect post in your life!!! all your fics are wonderful and i've loved reading them!! you are kind, you are smart, you are funny, and you make everyone around you feel so safe and comfortable and welcome here. like. i can't tell you how much i admire how open you are with your kindness and friendship and how you give it so freely to everyone you interact with. i love talking to you so much - whether it's hearing about your life or sharing our ideas with one another or just. venting about anything i want to - and your enthusiasm is utterly infectious and makes me feel more hyped and excited to be in fandom. forgive me for being so sappy on main but i will never not be touched by your endless love for fandom, not only these characters and the works that people make, but for the people around you as well and i hope u know i love u very much too 💞
@jackietaylcrs hii marianne fellow haver of good taste!! i remember you once made a post wondering if your followers would still love you if your stranger posting went down to 0.5% and i wanted to lyk that i definitely would!! i really like reading your commentary on ST and yellowjackets, but even when you're posting about a show that i'm not familiar with, you have this Way of speaking that i find very charming and funny and entertaining, and you bring this inimitable energy to my dash that i doubt i could ever find elsewhere. i like the way you sign off your posts with 'and like i say: brf slt.' i think it’s Neat n it fits you very well. alsooo THANK YOU very very much for being the one to convince me to watch yellowjackets!! people have been telling me to watch it for a long time but in the end it was your posts that made me say, fuck it, and finally watch it. also. um. ur posts abt stephen harrison make me feel very Seen so. thank u. ok bye 💗
@emblazons hello marie my beloved mutual marie!! honestly, out of everything in this post, this message was the hardest to write because i don't even know where to begin with you!! you bring so, so much to this fandom - your thoughtful, entertaining, levelheaded commentary, your stunning gifsets, your logical and witty posts, your incredibly supportive and kind personality, and your endless passion for this show and all that goes into making it, as well as our shared love & enthusiasm for noah schnapp 😅 every time i think you've made the most brilliant observation or put out the most beautiful set, you go and top yourself by finding something new or making an even prettier gifset. if i had to pick one person whose contributions to the fandom enriched my experience of this show? more than anyone, it would be you!! and i could go on and wax poetic about your talent forever (as i have on many, many occasions bc you deserve it 🥰), but i'm gonna end it here by saying that you are a gift to this fandom and one of my absolute favorite people on here, and that i'm beyond grateful to know you.
@mikeandwillel sandy!!!! you are so so smart and your analysis is absolutely incredible. i look forward to each and every one of your analyses because you always find the most clever parallels and your deep dives into each of these characters' arcs are always written with so much care and skill. and of course, i forever have you to thank for writing The ultimate masterpiece (your s4 painting arc analysis) that finally convinced me of byler endgame and thus made my fandom experience so much more relaxing and fun. i also really love & how much you love mike for all that he is -- i feel like it's a little rare in this fandom, so seeing how much you adore his true character and how you Understand him better than anyone else i've ever met makes me really happy. and not to mention, i have no idea how you managed to get so good at gifmaking in such a short amount of time but all your sets are so beautiful!! you're a gem fr 💖

@paintingformike hi!! i've said this before but i really do think you've always been The strongest soldier in the byler fandom (like, ngl your posts were Carrying byler tumblr for a while there while everyone was still in their debating-over-s5-canon phase). you've always been so levelheaded and astute with your observations, and i've always admired and respected how your posts make it seem so simple and So clear how all of the overarching themes of the show are leading to byler endgame. you've got an incredible way with words and i'm so glad to have you in our fandom 💞
-
and now for the creatives in this fandom - some incredible gifmakers whose beautiful sets have been the highlight of my dash, some wonderful writers who have ripped my heart out over and over again only to stitch it back together seamlessly just one paragraph later, and brilliant fan artists who are able to capture so much and make me feel the entire spectrum of human emotion with just a few brush strokes:
@sharpesjoy - em!! you're an absolute sweetheart and such a joy to see on my dash. all of your gifs are so gorgeous and so clearly infused with all of the love that you have for everything you watch and i've added several shows to my watchlist because your gifs have made me want to watch them so badly 💞
@heroeddiemunson - kai!! your creations are so beautiful and you have this unique gifmaking style that i'm totally obsessed with!! your colorings and typography are always so pretty and i Love how special and creative your sets are, especially the D&D character sheets. like.....i have no idea how u come up w all these incredible ideas but i'm so very glad u do bc my dash is better for it❣️
@kaliprasad - hi!! your blog is amazing and i'm so glad that i found it bc all your gifs are fantastic and i love them So much. i think your talent is insane tbh, that byers brothers set that you made for me a little while ago is still one of my favorite things i've seen on this whole site, and i love that you love them just as much as i do 🫂
@kingofscoops - no one, and i mean no one, does coloring like you!! all of your sets are so vibrant and bring so much life to my dash & i think the ST fandom is very lucky to have you ❤️

@mayahawkins - MADDYYYYYYY you are So talented, and believe me when i say that your gifs have been the Biggest inspiration for my own gifmaking journey. all your sets are so pretty & i love everything you make - including your playlists which live rent free in my mind!! but as a reminder i also love following your blog for You and not just your gifs :) you're an incredibly sweet person and ur presence on my dash is utterly invaluable 💗
@padme-amidala - hi erika!! okay, calling you a gifmaker almost feels wrong because that word doesn't feel like enough to encompass how beautiful your work is...all ur ideas are So amazing and you have such a natural eye for color and detail!! it is so clear that you pour so much love into all of your creations, and if i'm being honest, one of the reasons why i am so grateful to be a byler shipper is so that i can appreciate your craft to the fullest. and you're also Such a genuinely kind person that i always look forward to seeing on the dash!! thank you for being so lovely!!
@wiseatom - hi thea!! your writing is the ultimate definition of comfort. when i read ur work, no matter what i'm doing physically, mentally i am in my cozy bed with the fireplace crackling in the corner, surrounded by twinkly lights and warm blankets, sipping hot cocoa bc that is the kind of emotion ur writing invokes ✨
@byeler - irene!! your fics were my introduction to the world of byler fics and i admire you and your writing so very much 💞 i don't know how it's possible for one person to have this much skill and talent, but you do, and i'm so grateful that you've chosen to share it with us. eagerly waiting on a new heavy hopes chapter was one of the highlights of my fandom experience and that fic is a piece of writing that i will always come back to over and over again 🫶
@astrobei - suni i have been reading fics for over a decade now and i have still never encountered a writer that does emotion quite like you do, devastating me with every single fic you put out. i promise i mean this in the best way possible but you're So damn good at capturing all of that heartbreak and pain and inflicting the same agony on your readers, and it would have killed me by now if not for the fact that you're equally good at writing the sweetest fluff that has me melting into a puddle whenever i read 🫂
@hopelessromanfic - lyssaaaa!!! i've been Such a huge fan of landslide ever since you started writing it - it's one of my all time favorite fics in the fandom and i'm obsessed with the storyline and your characterization in all of your fics 😍

@junkoandthediamonds - your character studies are beautiful and i'm obsessed with your byler comics, your gifs and your ST x DC crossovers!!! i love your realistic style so So much and if i worked for the duffers i would 1000000% hire you to draw the official comics because i can't get enough of your work 🥰
@livsmessydoodles - fun fact: last year, when HSMTMTS s3 was airing, i remember seeing your rina art throughout the season and immediately fell in love with your style and your interpretation of the characters, and the same exact thing happened when i saw your ST work, and it wasn't until you followed me that i put the pieces together and realized that you were the same person 😅 your style is So gorgeous and your art just makes me so happy, and trust me when i say that i am mentally wallpapering all of your work to the inside of my brain so i can look at it forever❣️
and of course, a very special shoutout to all of the people that i don't know too well but are still such a comfort to have on tumblr: @miwism @yearninginblue @kittykat940 @robinsnance @jesper-faheyss @bylersheart @usergabby @achingly-shy @wheelersboy @wontbyers @stbyers @will80sbyers @watpoetry @frodohaven 💝
+ to all my other mutuals: tumblr wouldn't let me link your profiles because of some ridiculous limit, but please know that i see all of you and i am hugging you through my screen rn. thank you!! 👍🏼

The Gym Membership - Part 37 (Crosshair)
Summary: Layla meets an extended member of the family.
A/N: Hello Lovelies,
I'm sorry for not uploading last week, however, I wanted to give TBB's finale its proper focus. I'm so sad it's the end, but I'm glad they all survived. I'm a little upset Tech didn't come back, or the fact we have no idea what happened to Cody or how Wolffe left the Empire. Also THEY DID SCORCH DIRTY! He deserved a redemption arc.
Anyway I'm going to start uploading two parts a week for The Gym Membership.
Love oo
Warnings: Liquor, flirting, annoyance, discussions of finding Cross attractive. I think that's it, if I miss any warnings, please let me know.
AO3 Link   |   Words: 1,013   |   PREVIOUS - -> NEXT
Gym Membership Master List  |   Main Master List
Tumblr media
Layla kept her eyes focused on Crosshair and Rob, and the aggressive nature from the latter as he kept getting in Cross’ face. Both Hunter and Tech had stepped in to keep both men apart. Hunter pushed Rob away from Cross, getting him to cool down a little.  
I shook my head as I watched him, how Rob ended up joining our group was beyond me, he was irritating and showy, and now he was getting aggressive with Cross. Ugh! He needed to go. 
Yet, watching Crosshair stand his ground, showing off how talented he was, I could understand why he became a sniper, and what Avery saw in him. After all, he’s handsome, skilled, snarky, funny even if he didn’t mean to be, kind when he trusted and liked the person enough, not to mention he was ready to defend if needed … he was the epitome of a man. I couldn’t help smirk at his bored and not impressed attitude coming from Rob. 
“Layla!” 
A hand shook my shoulder, I turned to see Sofie smirking as she, Mel and Zai were all looking at me, “Sorry, what?”
All three burst out laughing, probably didn’t help that they were all getting a little tipsy, “Wow, you really can’t take your eyes off Cross, can you?” Mel chuckled, “I called it.” She looked at the other girls, “Didn’t I call it?” Zai and Sofie both nodded in agreement. 
“Uh … no … that’s” I readjusted myself, turning my back to Crosshair, as I faced the three women before me, “I wasn’t … he’s … that’s my sister’s …”
Mel held up her hand trying to calm me down, “Listen, Layla, there’s nothing wrong with you finding him attractive. I mean, you guys were never really … family. Right?” She took another sip of her drink, “I mean you two didn’t really interact with each other during all that time you both were taking care of Avery, it was mostly each of you yelling at the other person, if I understand correctly.”
I nodded tilting my head from side to side, unable to look her in the eye from the embarrassment of our first encounter and our subsequent conversations. “Yeah, I mean I guess, you could say that …” I ran my hand through my hair, letting out an exasperated sigh, “Okay, that’s actually a pretty accurate description of our relationship.”
“Then what’s the problem? Neither of you would be doing anything wrong, Layla.”
“It’s … no” I shook my head, “No, that’s just …”
Zai cleared her throat, leaning forward, “If I may?” She held up her finger, “Layla, the only thing you need to answer is, do you think he’s attractive?”
“That’s a ridiculous question.” 
“Is it though?” Sofie asked as she sipped her own drink.
“Be honest, Layla, do you find him attractive?” Zai posed the question one more time.
“I’m sure everyone would find him attractive, he’s a good looking guy and he’s sweet, and stoic. He’s that guy.”
“What guy?” Mel tilted her head in confusion.
“You know that guy that stands on the wall and says, you don’t have to be afraid, because I’m standing watch and nothing’s going to hurt you. Not on my watch. That guy. So of course, people would find him attractive.”
“Okay, then would you be interested in going on a date with him?” Sofie added.
“I couldn’t … I mean, he’s Avery’s …”
“But sweetie, Avery isn’t here anymore. We’re not saying marry the man or even sleep with him, we’re saying if there’s an attraction, don’t be afraid to explore it,” Mel offered. 
“Well, well, well, who would’ve thought I’d meet so many beautiful women at an axe throwing bar.” Mel turned and squealed in delight at the … alright I had to admit, extremely handsome man that just walked up to our table. 
“HOWZER!” Mel wrapped her arms around him, hugging him tightly, as she laughed in delight. After a few seconds, Mel pulled away smiling, “Howzer, have you met Layla? She’s Avery’s sister.”
“Avery? … Oh! Crosshair’s wife … ex-wife.” Howzer turned to look at her, his speech faltering as he looked into her eyes. 
“Hi …” he let out breathlessly. 
I couldn’t pull my eyes away from him, there was a charge, an electricity I’d never experienced before with anyone else. “Hi,” my lips turned into a giant smile on their own volition, “nice to meet you.”
Howzer took her hand in his, “Pleasures all mine,” he leaned down and pressed a kiss to her knuckles. “Layla, right?”
“Yeah.”
“I am very sorry to hear about your sister’s passing. Anyone that is able to put up with my cousin, deserves a medal,” his eyes floated to the black armbands, “I take it she was in the military?”
“How did you know?”
“The arm bands, I’m a cop we do something similar but it’s on our badges.” 
“You’re a cop?”
“That I am. Captain of the 526th.”
“Is that your station number?”
“Oh right,” he chuckles, “forget civilians wouldn’t know that, so what do you do ?”
“Defence lawyer” Layla smiled, “Captain Howzer.”
“Defence lawyer?” He smirked, shaking his head, “Why is it always the really good looking ones that break your heart.”
“Don’t worry, my clients are mostly wrongfully convicted. After all, I enjoy going after crooked cops.” 
Howzer leaned against the table, “A woman after my own heart.” 
Sofie, Zai and Mel all were biting back a squeal, they were all holding back, trying hard not to laugh. Each of them felt their cheeks flushed, watching Howzer turn on the charm. Although they all knew him, talked to him, hung out with him on numerous occasions, not one of them had ever seen him actually flirt with anyone. 
Mel couldn’t help but wonder, whether or not Crosshair was watching, she glanced over and saw him looking over, his eyes focused on Layla and Howzer. She’d been suspecting for a while, especially since he seemed to ask her a lot of questions regarding Layla. If she needed definitive confirmation, it was at that moment when Crosshair’s eyes never faltered.

Hello! Can you do a cutecore fem reader x Scott tenorman,please? It’s fine if not tho, anyways have a good day/night!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Warnings: Swearing
Background: You been with your boyfriend for a while but he doesn't like the way you dress. When you confide in Scott, he tells you, you deserve better and know he can be that better.
Status: Ongoing
Next part
Tumblr media
Bound
You walked into school, pulling up your sunglasses to the top of your head the minute you stepped into the building. You walked to your boyfriend who was leaning against his locker talking with his friends.
"Hey baby." You say with a warm smile.
He looks over at you and raised an eyebrow. He looked back at his friends giving them a look causing them to leave. He looked back down at you and sighed.
"You know I don't like you wearing clothes like that." He said with a frown.
You look down at your pink sweats and pink matching sweater. Your body was covered but your clothes did hug your figure. You've had this discussion with him before and you tried your best to tone it down but apparently, it wasn't enough.
"I'm sorry? I didn't think this was that bad." You said with a pout.
"Not that bad? Your tits are out. I don't want other people seeing you like that." He said with a sigh.
You sigh and nod zipping up your sweater and hiding your chest. He nodded and put his hand on your head.
"See better. Right?" He asked with a smug smile.
You nod still a bit upset about the interaction. He walked off leaving you there. You sigh and walk to your locker standing next to Scott as you open your locker. You and Scott would talk occasionally but you weren't friends.
"What's wrong?" He asked taking out some books from his locker.
"Do you think my outfit is too much?" You ask looking over at him.
He looked at you up and down and shrugged. "I don't see anything wrong with it."
"That's what I'm saying but Dillion doesn't like it." You mutter turning back to your locker.
"You deserve better." He said closing his locker.
"You don't know him. He's pretty good, he just has some issues with what I wear." You say with a sigh.
"Is he?" He asked leaning against his locker with a smirk. "You shouldn't let him control what you wear. I miss your old clothes."
"Tell me why that doesn't surprise me?" You teased rolling your eyes.
"Ya well, when you realize you need better I'll be here to be better." He said before walking off.
You smiled and shook your head as you continued on with your day. You couldn't help but think about what Scott said. You tried your best to get over it but you felt like you needed to prove he was wrong. As the school day you unzipped your jacket showing your white tanktop that revealed your cleavage.
You made your way to the front gates seeing Dillian waiting there. As you made your way to him you could see his face drop and turn in anger.
"Hey."
"What did I tell you about your clothes?" He spat out
"I wanna wear what I want.." You say looking down at your feet.
"I'm your boyfriend no one else should see you like this. You shouldn't be dressing like a slut." He said with a frown.
"A slut?" You repeated in an offended tone looking up at him. "Ya know what? Fuck you dude we're done."
You turn to leave before he grabs your arm and makes you turn back. "You're not leaving me."
"Let go of me." You say trying to pull away your arm until Scott walks over.
Scott gently pulls his hand off you and takes your hand. You and Dillian stood there watching him do it, feeling a bit of shock from the suddenness. Scott began walking off with you leaving Dillian there just glaring at you two.
"I could have handled it." You mutter, keeping your hand in his.
"I'm sure." He said with a smirk, keeping his eyes forward.
"Are you gonna say it?" You ask softly
"Say what?"
"I told you so."
"No, but I'm glad I was right." He said walking up to your door.
"Enjoying my suffering?" You joke taking out your keys.
"I'm enjoying his suffering. You'll be fine especially when you agree to go out with me." He said with a smug smile as if he knew you would say yes.
"In your dreams, Tenorman." You said stepping inside your house.
"Can't wait to see you in them." He said as you closed your door.

Hello there, how do you do? \⁠(⁠^⁠o⁠^⁠)⁠/
I recently found your blog and got to say I was so excited to explore it, hehe! Nowadays it's hard to find some Ben 10 account so I was really happy when I come across yours.
Anyways though I wanted to request but since I got no idea for now I think might interact with you since you sound like any interactive person (⁠ㆁ⁠ω⁠ㆁ⁠)
Yk what made you write for Ben 10 fandom since you know not many fall in love with their childhood interest later in life. Honestly I get into Ben 10 again when few days earlier my cousin was watching Ben 10 online and I end up watching one episode with him too and thus my old love for series and character rise again 🐀
Would like to see your answer. Anyways have a wonderful day ahead and don't forget to eat your meal. Byeeee!
Hi! I am so sorry it took me so long to see this! I have no idea how long this has been sitting in my ask box, I'm not active on this blog anymore. I was unaware that it's still getting just as much attention as it did when I was in high school. Just a warning, this is a very long response.
To answer your question, It's not that I fell in love with it later in life, but that I never stopped loving it.
Tumblr media
I am autistic, and have had the same handful of interests since I was younger. Ben 10, Transformers, DC, Marvel, Devil May Cry, to name a few. Most of my interests were influenced by the people I grew up around. like my abusers. I also have a biological who is only two years younger than me. The two of us have always had the most of the same interests our entire life, but my interest in these things was always more intense than his. To the point my bio family found it annoying.
For context, we didn't know I was autistic growing up. We didn't have health insurance for most of my developmental years. It took being taken into foster care for my most of my health- mental and physical- to be cared about, addressed, and treated. It also doesn't help that my cousin (son of a very close family friend) is also autistic and we have different care needs. Because I didn't present exactly like him, my behavior was ignored. Written off as me being quirky, whiney, needy, annoying, antisocial, and stupid/ditsy.
Having the same interests as your younger brother is a doubled edged sword. On one hand, you always have someone to talk to. On the other, despite being more into something than him my interest wasn't taken seriously (because I am AFAB) and he was always got the toys and books (that he would never even read) about said interests. I always had to sit and watch as he got to enjoy things about our shared interest- and I was always left out.
I remember when my grandmother got him an Omnitrix toy that came with these tiny plastic figures of all of the aliens, and when you placed it on the Omnitrix, the toy would say the alien's name. I was so jealous, I wanted that toy so badly. But, siblings being siblings, if my brother found me playing with it he would throw a fit and get me in trouble. This caused me a lot of stress and anxiety growing up. Not just because It was invalidating, but also because I was being denied access to my special interest in a way.
However, there is one thing that my brother and I don't share. I love to read and write. To the point it was an actual problem when I was growing up. I would stay up on our bunk bed, reading and writing for so long that I would miss meals entirely. But, It was something they could never take away from me for force me to share with my brother. I have been writing about my special interests since I was in the 6th grade. Of course, my mother threw away most of it, and its all in notebooks rotting in some landfill now.
When I was 16, I made this blog and started posting reader insert fanfiction here- which I had already done for another fandom once before (@honeydew-mel0n). Actually, I was posting on both blogs at the same time! Before that, I had a Wattpad that I posted on (Still do, actually, haha.) I stopped posting on this blog after I graduated high school as I had collage classes to focus on, and eventually a job.
I no longer post here, not because it's no longer a special interest, but because I'm going to be 20 soon. I don't feel it's appropriate for me, as an adult, to continue to write such content about characters that are minors. It now makes me uncomfortable to do so. However, I am going to keep the blog up because many people like it and continue to read it. I'd never want to take that away from anyone. I do have a bunch of old drafts saved that I might post, but only if people would want to read my unfinished drafts. There is also a part of me that wants to keep exploring the Benzarro plot I was writing- but I probably won't
I hope this makes sense, thank you for asking!

vance hopper x reader
-> you and vance finally hang out and your relationship starts to blossom!!
-> thanks for sm appreciation on the first part!! it was my first fanfic and everyone was super nice ab it tysm 😞🙏 ALSO, i don't know where vance lives so bare with me and pretend he lives in a cul-de-sac (idk directions that well either IM SO SORRY ILL DO BETTER NEXT FIC I PROMISE) 😞🤘
-> taglist; @dracosbloodychicken
Tumblr media
vance liked you, a lot more than he's willing to admit to anyone, even himself. he occasionally glanced at you while playing the pinball machine he loved so much. sometimes you'd make eye contact and he'd look back at the game instantly. not even watching the ball inside of the game but away, elsewhere so he couldn't look back at you. god emotions were horrible; he thought. he repeatedly pressed the buttons on the side of the machine until you spoke.
"want to go get shakes later?" you asked, fiddling with the bracelets on your arm a little.
"i guess, i'm not doing anything else." he responded, although his tone was mellow and annoyed, he really did want to hang out with you. he just didn't want to show it, his vulnerability that is.
"alright then, i'll meet you here again at like 4:30, my mom needs me to help with dinner."
he nodded his head and you left the building, leaving only the memory of you standing next to him. he rolled his eyes, making a weak attempt and pretending to not care. he hated that every time you left he felt so happy and grossly obsessed with every interaction you've had with each other, whether it be something simple or complex conversations about whatever. he cared so much it was so annoying to him.
while overthinking he missed the button and the shiny grey ball placed in the machine fell back into the hole. he punched the side of the machine, causing the few people in the store to jump at the sudden noise. with no money left he had no choice but to leave. he walked home all pissed until he saw the front of your home, where you were doing yard work (thanks to your mom).
he's been to your house a few times, although most of the time you two just lounged in your living room watching shitty movies he'd complain about later. however, despite this he still came over every saturday when your parents weren't home to watch them with you.
"vance!! hello—!?" you waved, snapping him out of his daydreams.
he scoffed as he walked across the street towards the gray fence that separated your home and the empty sidewalk. he leaned up against the rusty metal and watched as you finished raking the leaves out front. you both talked again, vance seemed more relaxed however. he didn’t really have a reason to be mad out here, well not anymore at least.
“mm’ anyway it’s almost 4:30, let’s go.” he started walking away despite you yelling at him to wait. he stopped near a corner and waited for you to catch up. you stood by his side as you both were on the way to the local diner. the diner wasn't perfect, but at least they had good shakes.
you got a booth and you both sat and talked while waiting for the server. discussing topics like school, homework, weather, and anything and everything that came to mind. you smiled and vance almost reciprocated it, almost. the waiter came over and handed you both what you ordered, a strawberry milkshake for you, and a vanilla one for vance, because he's basic like that. well, that's what you called him, he could careless.
"but how are your grades doing? i think you ditched the last two days right?"
"i was sick."
"oh, like, for real?"
"yes." he blankly stared at you, his eyebrow raised slightly. based on his expression alone you can tell he thought you were an idiot. you laughed, hard, harder than you probably should've. his expression itself was hilarious but the fact that vance actually gets sick sent you over the edge.
"what are you laughing at?? what's so funny??" he asked, demanding an answer from you. his face blushed red as he looked away from you, but his angered expression slowly diminished as he watched you slowly calm down from your laughing/coughing fit. he glanced at you as your arm held your stomach, still coughing a bit in your hand.
"uhm— ahem, okay. uh, how's your shake?"
"is that all you have to ask after almost dying? i was about to bury your ass in the back of the restaurant."
"if i did die would you come to my funeral?"
"no." he threw a five dollar bill on the table. "let's go, m' tired of this place."
"already? we were there for like ten minutes." you joked, walking with him out of the door, the bells atop the door ringing as you both walked out.
"ten minutes too long." he groaned, shaking his head to get his hair out of his face. "i can't fucking stand being in one place too long."
"you don't seem to mind standing in front a machine for over three hours."
"it's different, idiot."
"sure." you said, as you guys went towards, presumably, vance's home, it went quiet. not the awkward kind of quiet like the first time you met but the content kind of quiet, the enjoying each other's presence kind of quiet. vance noticed you eyeing his hand every three seconds, he would've scoffed if he wasn't endlessly in love with you.
besides, there wasn't anyone around so. . . before you rounded another block towards the cul-de-sac, he grabbed your hand and enveloped your fingers together. five minutes passed and you followed him into his house. this is probably the second time you've been here, might as well be the first because the first time you came you waited outside.
"well, i'm gonna get going now. um, i'll see you tomorrow." you waved, finally letting go as his hand as you walked out the front door.
"oh, yeah, okay, bye. cya' tomorrow i guess." he responded, watching you close the front door. his heart was pounding in his chest, vance almost panicked because he thought he was having a heart attack, but it was just stupid emotions. maybe it wasn't so bad, he didn't mind having emotions at that moment, especially if they were for you.
"so, you gonna tell me who that is?"
"MA'—?"

(Hi everyone! Mod Goomy here! So, 300 followers. That is absolutely wild to me. I know I still had my 200 follower event but I’m gonna be honest with you, I kinda ran outta steam on that one. I’m really sorry but it was just a lot for me to draw. I feel bad because when I first began it, I wanted to do it. I really did. But, things kept happening and that meant I couldn’t draw for it and I’ve just kinda lost interest. Sorry. I’m definitely not very good when it comes to big continuous events like that.
Anyway. 300 followers. Hi hello. That’s is a lot of followers. I’m genuinely just incredibly thankful that so many of you want to follow me. I'll go over just some bits on how I started this blog and some things I want to say.
This blog started out because I needed a creative outlet for my story telling. Especially with the stories I was listening to, there were some that were very character-driven and I loved all of their interactions and how they would react to the world around them. I used to run a dnd campaign and I was still missing doing that.
So, that’s when I started planning my own ask blog. The main event that inspired me to do it in this style was the giant event that @/askthetraveller did with their rayquaza and what @/asksavel did with fighting Dravol. I’d been following the traveller since the beginning of their blog and when savel was a gastly, before the mod decided to have a break in their story. Those events just seemed like so much fun. And I loved the fact that they brought the community together where everyone could join in and be a part of it.
It was wonderful to see and it inspired me to want to be a part of this community. This wonderful community filled with so many incredible and kind people. You all inspire me and encourage me to keep going. You all fill me with that excitement of wanting to continue. The reactions I have gotten to Destino have been so much fun.
The wild variation of relationships Destino has been able to build with some of your characters has been great. From being enemies with Snow and Galadriel hating Destino's guts, to Gizmo and Indigo playing along and sharing in the banter too. I love how each character has such a different reaction to Destino.
And my other characters too. Felix, Hope, Mistress Mirage, King Nox and Queen Karma, the Bisharp brothers Roy and Hershel. I have so much fun showing them all to you and how they interact with you all.
Speaking of that Absol, Destino was originally inspired by my dnd character Xave. Xave was a rich, stuck-up and egotistical bastard who only cared for himself. He was inspired by the bastard characters I'd seen and liked in media. So, I wanted another bastard character.
At first, Destino started as just an absol drawing. And then I drew them with more personality. And it began to fall in place. What was this character's name? Backstory? What adventure would I want them to go on? And then the cogs started turning. A story started being made with story beats being planned out. Other kingdoms stared to fall into place and suddenly I had this whole world where I knew I wanted to turn it into an ask blog. I was excited. I was talking to my partner about it and they were asking world-building questions I'd never think of.
This was in October last year. Destino character has definitely changed a bit since I first created them. Still an ass back then but was definitely a bit more friendly and a huge nerd. I'm glad I changed that because of how well you've taken Destino. I took a pause from my world and the creation of it until the end of December. I looked at it again and all of the stuff I had done for it and said to myself, "I wish I had turned this into an ask blog."
And then it clicked that I could still do that. What was stopping me? Anxiety. That was what. I asked my partner if they thought I should start it. And they said, "Yes. If that's what you want to do. I'll even push the button for you to make it if that's what will get you going." And then it was made. And I was busy drawing my very first post.
And it took off from there. I met loads of people, enjoyed the interactions I was having and started to really enjoy myself. It was nice just to be able to get my ideas down.
And I still am. I still am enjoying each and every moment. This is the longest I have consistently enjoyed a project like this. So, thank you all. Thank you to each and every one of you who like, reblog, comment, send an ask or even just look at my posts. I truly do appreciate you all.
And I truly appreciate the people I speak with in this community too. This community has definitely changed my life for the better. I'm so happy to be a part of it. I feel the community is in a really good place at the moment. I'm aware that in the past, it has had its troubles. But, as someone who's only joined this year, it has been a fantastic and kind place to be. And seeing apparent veterans of the community also coming back, this truly is a good year for ask blogging. I mean, you've all definitely been a good influence on myself as a newbie.
And with how this is going, I hope I can continue to be a part of it for years to come. I've got a huge story planned (three arcs (with arc one split into two parts) with stuff in between (kinda filler and kinda character development)) and hope I can take you on a fun (and perhaps sometimes emotional) journey with you all. You are all truly special to me. Thank you.)

soooo idk who else to ask but like what happened to all the big names during the sebaciel renaissance?? I’ve kinda been off tumble pretty much since nsfw ban, but what happened to blogs like chromehopelite and ciel’s lingerire or vexing young master? Im sure there’s others I’m missing I just can’t remember but I feel like no one uploads on the sebaciel ao3 tag as much as it used to in like 2017 and 2018. hopefully the fandom will come alive again with a new season?
Hello! I have no idea what happened to Vexing Young Master but as for the others, as far as I know, Ciels Lingerie got obliterated again and again, both here and on twitter, and I guess at one point they gave up. Their latest twitter seems to have been hacked by crypto bros.
Chromehoplite is still around, just not in the fandom anymore. And who can blame them, considering the amount of vile messages they got on a daily basis.
To be honest, I've been active in the tumblr fandom for... Idk how long, before BoC, and it was the most prolific back when BoC aired. After that, it's been a downward spiral. It got a bit refreshment through BoM and BotA but not in the same way. Back during BoM, the fandom felt huge.
I think it's a natural development. Manga fandoms are most active when there's a fairly recent tv anime adaptation (movies just don't do it like tv shows). There hasn't been one in a long time, and additionally, we've had to put up with our main characters virtually missing from the manga for about half a decade now. The twin reveal was that long ago!
So I completely understand that the fandom has become the way it is now. I consider myself crazy for still sticking around the way I do (but I have no plans of changing that) but most people aren't as weird about Kuroshitsuji as I am.
That being said, I also believe that the fandom will have a real renaissance when the show airs again. I never expected that twitter-borne renaissance to hold on anyway because it was mostly just born out of spite against antis (which is valid but not enough to give people the motivation to stick with a manga that's barely progressing over the course of years). Chrome and the others were there before the twitter renaissance and they were there after it too to some extent, but I guess lives go on, priorities and interests change and also, fandom can just be really nasty and detrimental to your mental health sometimes.
Maybe we'll see some familiar people come back when the new show airs, who knows!
I hope my answer helped!
P.S.: from the perspective of a creator myself, the disappearance of popular creators coincides with a strong decrease of engagement with authors' and artists' works. You could say it's a hen and egg kind of situation but I think the common denominator is the lack of progress in the manga and everyone's fatigue with everything. In any case, from a creator's POV it does feel kind of discouraging sometimes when you feel like your skill has increased over time but people don't interact with it as much as they used to. Like, I know it's the size of the fandom but I sometimes think, "has my art gotten that bad?" and I mean I don't draw for attention or else I'd draw Genshin or sth like that but it is a little difficult to process anyway. Sorry for the rant.

Hello! I’m relatively new to the genshin fandom and after doing Venti’s story quest I have decided that he is the favorite, but all of the fics I try to find with him he’s usually just a side character, so do you have any recommendations? :)
Sorry if it’s too much to ask you can ignore this if you want
Anon we are shaking hands!!! Venti's story quest really got a lot of people onto the Venti fan train huh XD
Also you're in luck because when ever I hyperfixate on a character I tend to scourer their ao3 tag like a dog digging holes in someone's yard (admittedly I've only begun organizing my bookmarks recently so I may miss a fic but it's fineeee)
Anyway onto the fic recs! (I'll mention the potential quest spoilers since I don't know how far into the game you are)
The Melody of a Gentle Breeze A recent fic I read and one I made art for! Nameless Bard/Venti's friend gets yeeted to the present learns about how the world has changed. I love how he's characterized here and how his relationship with venti is portrayed <3 (admittedly venti isn't the main focus here but you can feel his presence and influence on the fic and I adore that!!!)
Singing to the Mountains, Only My Echoes Sing Back This one is based on the Wings of Shimmering Galaxy (anniversary glider) description! It's about Venti's story and the fic ties it to song and I love it a ton!!!
Pure Sky This one is a lighter one that uses wine as a character study and honestly I love that! Venti and his love for Mond and their love for one another in return my beloved!!!!
Three Evenings Before the End THIS ONE THIS ONE IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE FICS!! It talks about Venti's friend's throughout Mondstadt's history and the whole thing with repeating parallels and how he notices the similarities and differences between his friends throughout the ages,,, o u g h A lot of the stuff in the fic is regarding bits of old mondstadt and aristocratic mond lore that you can find in book, weapon and artifact descriptions in game so it's not quite spoilers. But you might get a little confused regarding the characters if you don't know the jist of mond's history sfdgdfs (the author has the second chapter dedicated to worldbuilding and lore speculations tho which is hella neat!!!!)
Event Horizon I THINK ABOUT THIS EVERY SINGLE DAY Not really spoilers but it does talk about the Cataclysm and destruction of Khaenri'ah + speculations(?) though a convo between Venti and Dain (The guy that narrates the character miscellanies and who first appears in game in Bough Keeper: Dainsleif and later on in subsequent archon quests)
The Archons (soldier, poet, king ANOTHER FAVE OF MINE! This one's a series about Venti and his interactions with the other archons!! I love how it shows the more serious side of him that others may not see along with his usual silly whimsy <3 Of course, since each fic talks about the archons we meet in each nation, spoilers for all the archon quests so far!
The Springtimes You Never Saw Okay this one's longer than the ones I've recommended so far (my ADHD fucks with my attention span so I tend to stick to one-shots for the most part) but it's so good!!!! I know I say that about all the fics here lmao but I do genuinely adore this fic. It's a canon divergent AU where Dvalin never gets poisoned during the fight with Durin 500 years ago and it's such a good character study of my boyyyyy Also while the fic is tagged xiaoven it's queerplatonic and the pairing doesn't take center stage (not that into shipping in general lol so I tend to prefer fics without ships or with them not as the main focus)

📰 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐄: 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒!
literally me rn 👆🏻
anyways, hello my loves! i’m here to give you some updates on where this blog stands and is (hopefully!) going 🤭
first, what the fuck happened? 🫣
it’s been pretty much exactly a year since i dipped from this account (again). i’m sorry about that. i got a little overwhelmed and frankly just didn’t feel motivated or excited to write for a long time. i tried writing a few things (and got a little far tbh) but i just wasn’t satisfied with any of it. i even had a terrible moment or two where i got very close to deleting this account entirely but i decided against it as i’m really proud of some of the things i put out, and i would’ve been really sad to see it go. i also love all of you very much and appreciate everything you guys have done for or said to me, and i would’ve felt really guilty taking this blog away from you guys. so i promise i won’t be doing that any time soon!
second, first love 🥰
i’m sure most of you have seen my teaser for first love part 5 by now (which, yes, will unfortunately be the last part for the series 😓) but!! i have like 1 or 2 small things i plan on posting before hand to keep you guys fed since it won’t be posted for another month or so. i’ve been working on it as much as i can for the past couple months, but i do work basically every day so i can only write so much 🫤 but yeah, that’s how first love is! i’ll explain some more on it when i can!!
third, asks/messages 💬
i’ve gotten so many sweet messages since i went MIA (a little under 40 😭). i’m sorry to keep all of you waiting, but i promise i’ll try to answer them soon! i did get some negative comments about my absence and such, but i won’t be answering any of those publicly. i don’t want to feed into them. i understand i’ve done this multiple times & it’s annoying, and i apologize for that. writing is a big passion of mine (as is interacting with all of you!) but it can get draining running this account sometimes. i’m trying my best, and i appreciate your patience with me. i’m definitely undeserving of it.
fourth, also! ☝🏻
i have decided that from now on i will not be taking requests. as much as i love writing specific stuff that you guys want, it does give me a little anxiety. so i will only be taking very limited requests for drabble games and stuff like that in the future. i hope you guys understand 🫶🏻
i also decided to delete my twitter account (well, it kind of got hacked? i think? idk i had trouble with it and basically can’t get back in and don’t want to create a whole new one) so i wont be answering asks with twitter links anymore for this reason.
fifth, comebacks?! 🤩
i’ve recently tried to catch up on some of the comebacks i missed. txt’s temptation ep, monsta x’s reason ep, enhypen’s dark blood ep, and skz’s 5 star album have been in my rotation lately and i love them!! (duh) so if any of you want to stop by my inbox and fangirl over them with me i’d absolutely love that 🥺👉🏻👈🏻
lastly, a thank you 💌
thanks to all of you that continued to follow me, leave likes/reblogs/comments, and message me while i was gone. you guys truly don’t understand how much your support for me means. like i said, i was close to deleting this account all together, but i decided against it, and it was largely because of you. i decided to keep writing because of you. re-reading all of the precious comments you’ve left me on my older work motivated me and inspired me to continue writing first love which sparked my joy again. so, thank you. i also hope some of you read this and it encourages you to leave love for other writers like myself. you could be the one that changes someone’s entire outlook on their account and keep them going. at the very least, you’ll make their day 💕
also, thank you for 4,000 followers??? um what the fuck??? i’ve never had so many people supporting me, i’m actually losing my marbles rn please help me find them??? (that was such a lame joke, okay i’m going to bed soon 😭🥱 ily bye)
i love you. i love you. i love you. more content is coming soon. promise. 😚💗
