OMG your velvety eye friendship headcanons were so cute!!! Can you also do some with angel dust?? Like him and the reader are besties and the reader has a contract with Vox. I think it’d be so cute if Angel stood up to Vox for her since she’s a total pushover compared to him and is super protective of his bestie 😤😤

Angle Dust And Bestfriend!Reader

———————————————————————

A/N: I’m so glad you liked the Velvette headcanons! I also love the idea of reader being in a similar situation as Angel but with Vox. I have been so exited to do this assskkkk! Ahhh I just love this idea!

———————————————————————

You and Angel had first met (before he went to Hazbin Hotel) when you found him high and passed out in an alley way.

You took pity on him and were worried that something would happen to him, so you took him back to your apartment.

When he woke up he was so confused until you explained.

He was so suprised you didn’t do anything and just took care of him, and my boy is SO THANKFUL.

Like you gave him food and water and let him take a shower, and you two just talked talked and you eventually became friends.

Your probably the person that convinced him to try the hotel out in the first place.

He goes to you for advice, or just to talk about struggles and lets you do the same. (VENTINGG BUDDIES)

Your one of the only people he lets babysit Fat Nuggets while he’s out for like a shoot or something because he doesn’t have many people he trusts :)

MATCHING OUTFITS MATCHING OUTFITS MATCHING OUTFITS

You better not be insecure or you will get a 3 hour lecture on how amazing you are, he knows what its like to be insecure and so he never wants you feel that way.

You two will regularly go hang out together.

Gets so happy if you join the Hazbin Hotel with him.

You honestly give him some more faith in humanity.

If you ever express romantic interest in someone expect him to be on you in a SECOND because he will be asking alll the questions (unless you don’t experience that then that’s okay too)

If you end up dating someone expect him to force you to let him meet them

Will be like a judgmental brother towards them.

He has to make sure they are good enough for you lol.

The most supportive person of you and your goals (surprisingly more than Charlie)

Like you boots eachother up so mucchhhh

(So wholesome)

You two would be best friends, with a hint of sibling relationship vibes

If your in a similar relationship with Vox like he was with Valentino, expect him to go crazy

While with Valentino he took a while to stand up to him, but with you he will not HESITATE

He will be so pissed. Will go confront Vox.

Will literally put his life in danger for you 😭

It will be the angriest angriest anybody would have ever seen him, anybody

Screaming, yelling, my guy is so protective of you holy moly.

Does not care about his own safety when it comes to you, because he knows you would do the exact same thing for him.

You helped him get away from Valentino now it’s his turn to fuck someone up.

SHORT DRABBLE

———————————————————————

Angel dust was chilling on the couch of your apartment. You and him had planned to hang out after you came home from work. He’s listening to music with one earbud in, bopping his head up and down to the tunes, his leg kicked over the couch.

He hears the lock turning and smiles, leaning over the couch as you walk in.

“Heyyyyy! Your finally home! How was…” He begins to say, happy to see you, yet he trails off short as soon as he sees the bruise and the dejected look on your face.

“Oh my god are you okay!?” He asks, immediately getting off the couch to go to you, fat nuggets trailing behind him.

You goes up to you, and you flinch a bit as he takes a hand and moves your hair to see the large bruise over your eye, concern written all over your face. Fat nuggets oinking below you, rubbing against your legs. “Yeah uhm… I’m.. fine..” You say quietly.

He frowns, obviously seeing your not, and he drags you over to the couch, sitting you down. “Okay what the fuck happened?!” He demands, as you sit there quietly, your hands in your lap.

“Vox just got a bit mad today that’s all, it’s nothing I haven’t handled before” You say, not wanting to worry him. Yet Angels face scrunches up in worry.

“Excuse me!? What do you mean; “nothing you haven’t handled before” is he hitting you?” He asks, sitting next to you.

“Just… s..sometimes… b-but only when he’s really pissed!” You say, trying to save yourself at the end, but it obviously not working.

Angel just stares at you silently for a second, before grabbing your hand. “……how long…..? How long has he been doing this to you..” He asks quietly.

You hesitate, “Since I started…” you murmer.

Angel looks at you sadly, glancing down. And he notices your arm. Before you can say anything he pulls up your sleeve to see dark bruises on your wrists, and his face twists in anger.

“I’m gonna fucking kill that stuck up asshole.” He says, standing up, beginning to walk. You stand up after him, grabbing his wrist. “Angel don’t! He’s is much much more powerful than us, and I don’t want him to hurt you!” You beg.

He turns around, and places his hands on your shoulders. “I will not let anyone, not even a stuck up prick like Vox, hurt my best friend.” He says, hugging you.

You try to speak, tears welling up in your eyes, and tears begin to fall down your cheeks as you bury your face into his shoulder. “P-lease don’t… I- can’t see you get hurt..” you sob.

He rubs your back soothingly, before he says. “You helped me before. Now it’s my turn.”

———————————————————————

A/N: Would anyone be interested in my continuing this where we get to see Angel Dust confronting Vox? I’ve never written a confrontation/fight scene before, but I could try! But anyways, hope you enjoyed! Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

4, 5, 7, 14 for the Outaiders ask!!!

thank you sm for the questions 😭 I got kinda worried no one's gonna ask me I'M SORRY FOR THIS TAKING SO LONG I forgot and then I got sick and

4. rank the main 7.

1) dallas. no explanation I just noticed I write and think about him the most

2) johnny. love my boy I wanna squish him.

3) ponyboy (he's my highest kinn how could I not)

4) darry

5) soda

6) two bit

7) steve

wasn't sure about anything starting off ponyboy

5. what are your favorite ships?

obv jally you give me a dramatic unresolved tension gay ship I eat that up

love stevepop (whatever is the name of it) too tho and I don't really know why guess I just feel like they would have that kind of relationship when you're obv not friends anymore but not dating yet because no one is smart enough to admit their feelings

I also like curly/pony. again no explanation and I didn't get into it at first cause we don't know much about curly but after reading a few fanfiction I can kinda see the vision...

7. what are your fave non-romantic relationships?

I don't really see johnny&ponyboy in romantic relationship, and much more like besties. love their friendship sm and wish I could have one like theirs 😭😭 they're comfortable with sticking together and understand each other on the other kind of level

LOVE CURTIS BROTHERS THEY'RE SOO FUCKING DEAR TO ME the conflict between darry and pony did something unexplainable to my heart. I was bawling my eyes out each time I saw that hospital reunion scene. I guess that's because it's the situation where I can relate both to ponyboy and darry, as a single mom's older child, and an older sibling.

I like the two-bit&marcia dynamic and maybe as romantic too but I'm not sure enough

I also like Tim/Dally as friends, I like the idea of them beating each other to death and being best buddies the next day, it's kinda funny. I just know damn well they're sick of each other but in a good way

14. telll us five headcanons you basically see as canon

this one is going to be kinda tough...

1) dally being a pale ass bitch and burning under the sun in five minutes in summer (whoever wrote about this, thank you)

2) curly sneaking in curtis' house at night through pony's window and scaring the shit out of him

3) if pony would ever leave Tulsa, he would move somewhere to the north, Illinois or Michigan maybe. (I just came up with it, but he would cause I live in michigan.) he would regret it because it's much colder in winter there than in oklahoma. he loves the nature though.

I couldn't think of anything else sorry 😭😭

I need all the Part 4 questions answered for Cora, thank you very much 🤗❤️

Yeesssss, my beloved Cora! I actually already answered some questions from Part 4 for her, but I'm very excited to dive into the others!

1. What is your OC's relationship to their family - biological or found?

Well, her biological family is dead, so... But she's incredibly proud of her heritage and honors her family's traditions, and she wants to carry on their legacy to the best of her ability. As for her found family, the Straw Hats... My goodness. She adores Luffy. He's just such a ball of sunshine. Even if she's sometimes put off by his stupidity or his antics, she can't really stay mad at him. Cora is in love with Zoro, even if she doesn't really realize it at first, and Zoro loves her back, even if he's frantically trying to deny it. The mosshead may be very stoic and a bit hard to get through to, but she understands him and gets through to his heart like few others do. She also feels very safe around him because she knows that he would murder anyone who tries to hurt her on the spot. Nami and Cora are fashion besties and they love to gossip. You better not get on their bad side because Nami can be very bitchy and Cora can be very dramatic. As for Usopp, she loves to experiment with him. Her with her dyes and their effects and him with gunpowder and other ammunition ingredients. You'll often see them just chilling and chatting in a corner with their various experiment kits. And Sanji... Oh boy, Sanji... Him and Cora have trauma-bonded on so many levels, but they also have such a sweet and romantic relationship... I'm not gonna talk about future Straw Hats here for spoiler reasons, but there's some cuteness going on there too!

2. Does your OC act differently around different people?

Answered here!

3. Is your OC a good leader? Do they like to lead or do they prefer to follow?

I'd say, yes, she could be a good leader if she managed to be confident about it. She definitely prefers to follow though.

4. Who influenced them the most on their journey?

Answered here!

5. Do they have any siblings?

Not anymore, no. I think she may have had an older half brother or sister (like, significantly older), but they're dead now.

6. Are they more dominant or submissive in their relationships? (Not just sexually if even at all - Do they give in easily? Are they demanding? Are they stubborn?)

At the start of her journey with the Straw Hats, she's definitely more on the submissive side, but she learns to put her foot down as she grows more comfortable around them and with herself. She starts off as a people pleaser but learns to absolutely bicker and be stubborn due to her friends' influence. The constant fighting between Zoro and Sanji and Nami's bitchiness is very inspiring lol

7. What type of friend are they?

Answered here!

8. How loyal are they?

Answered here!

9. How far would they be willing to travel for a loved one? What would it take to convince them?

Pretty far, honestly. The problem is that often doesn't have the appropriate means of travel, so some places are just unreachable for her, but she'll be damned if she doesn't at least try. The more serious the situation is, the more desperate she'll get at trying to get to her loved one by any means necessary.

Thanks so much for your ask! Hope you're having a lovely day! <3

I'm finally finished and thinking back to the pics you used as hints yesterday have me cackling djdjdhdkdkk i shall now dove into my fave bits!!

dance scene!!

not to self: do NOT get h word for your partner around your entire family!

.......................................................

i feel like this can be used in one of those wesnesday character x y/n out of context posts like the comedic timing in "show a LITTLE vulnerability" is golden

....................................................

starting a gofundme to get birb some damn vaseline

............................................................

so painfully romantic and very VERY lovesick addams of her. to think her biggest fear was turning into her parents and THIS is your inner monologue??? mission failed babe.

......................................................

this was just precious. i feel like birb was getting weary of getting their ass handed to them and went to wednesday all frustrated and asked for help with anticipating the attacks and pretty little viper got fed up of having to tend to their wounds (not really) so she gave in, only bc they begged and not at all bc she couldn't take the way worry gripped her ice cold heart when birb got hurt. ALSO love how birb went from hiding out with Pugs (older sibling birb will never not hit btw) to be ready to fend off Gomez. the GROWTH!

......................................................

YES SHE IS AN ADDAMS. BY MARRI [call disconnects]

......................................................

if i had to choose 1 piece out of the entire story that perfectly represents the dynamic between them this would be a tough contender. like 9/10 birb is putty in her hands and would do quite literally anything for her BUT birb's also a little shit and know that this is something only she can get away with ugh i just love them smmmmm

......................................................

Finally decided to stop lurking because I just had to tell you how much I enjoy this story. Your characterization of Wednesday is so good, especially how you write her inner turmoils! Your ability to map out a setting so we can visualize exactly what's written puts us right in the atmosphere. I can't wait to see how you go about having Wednesday ask more about birb's family and the tearful goodbye as they go back to campus :(((((((( ANDDDD it may be a few chapters away but when enid gets wind of the trip and the development of the relationship??? I can hear her scream rn dkdjdjskkssks

brb building a time machine so i can skip to next Thursday!!!!

Bestie no STOP you hit me with the SCREENSHOTS it's official, we've now got to get married because this is my WEAKNESS

I LOVE seeing what parts y'all like because, of course I've got my own, but it's so exciting to see YOUR favourite parts. If they're different than mine, the same, WHY you like it. Like Wednesday lowkey getting all h word? It's such a small part but, like, it's THERE and you NOTICED IT. Or Wednesday's inability to EXPRESS HER FEELINGS IN A NICE WAY "I feel you're a little annoying" bitch PLEASE

But yes, there at the end with Birb just??? Being an asshole??? Like listen, Birb can be the sweetest thing ever, but deep down she's an INSUFFERABLE DICK and she's gotta make sure everyone remembers it

I'm so glad you're here, bestie! Don't worry, the next chapter will get y'all in the feels (I hope). Might even post it on Wednesday just because I love y'all 👀

A, C, and K?

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.

Well, Cisco/Hartley and Cisco/Harry are always ships kinda buzzing in the back of my mind for the Flash. But I'm also currently still twirling Reverb/HR around in my head because they turned out really cute. Haven't written any Caitlin/Iris recently so I'm kinda itchy to write more for them too. Or to go through the tags to just read some Snowest ship. Dunno which yet.

Also just always Iris and Barry be it platonic, queerplatonic, or romantic. They're always important to each other.

Thanks to the DW specials, Donna ~ The Doctor QPR is now forefront of my mind. Still want Donna to randomly show up in new seasons of the show and just always know who the Doctor is. Threaten to share embarrassing stories about the Time Lord with the new Companion. But also just... Shaun Temple spending time with the Doctor is something I really want. The two of them being cozy domestic and supporting Donna about something. The Doctor falling asleep on Shaun's shoulder, waking up enough to almost get up and then snuggle back down because comfy. Sylvia banning 14 from the kitchen until he gets baking lessons because he keeps mixing up common Earth ingredients with not-Earth Ingredients and maybe exploded something with flour once or twice. Rose sneaking out to Mars with her Uncle.

(Donna reconnecting with Martha and getting to know Mickey properly. Mickey absolutely making fun of the Doctor for creating split-off versions of himself twice. He's like a plant you can take cuttings from. Mickey and Shaun bonding over having amazing, wonderful, brave wives.)

C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.

Yuri/Estelle from Tales of Vesperia. I just see their relationship as being too sibling-ish to ship them. I love their platonic ship, though. They're besties for life, want to spend forever together in as non-romantic a way as possible.

Though these days I mostly just see Yuri as being gay, so I don't really vibe with Judy/Yuri either. And I see Estelle as being a lesbian, so Estelle/Flynn also makes me go O_o because I do forget other people don't headcanon them this way.

(The game is sooooo good, everyone should go play it.)

K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?

It's kinda a tie between Eleanor and Michael from The Good Place. The way they grow over time together and how much their friendship changes each other... that show was just so tightly and well written and so incredibly acted that I don't know that I'll ever get over how good it was. This was a show that maintained it's velocity consistently over the course of it's seasons. Told exactly the story it wanted to tell. And did not try to push for more than there was nor get cut off prematurely and have to rush to finish.

But Eleanor and Michael in particular just stand out to me the most in their growth over the seasons. Eleanor learning to love herself and stand up for herself and others. Micheal learning that there's more to humanity than the bad parts and more to him than the Bad Place. And so much of that growth is instigated and nurtured by each other.

(That said, Tales of Vesperia has most excellent character arcs too, everyone should play that game...)

Thief King for the ship ask 😁

Send me a character and I'll tell you (<- Still Accepting)

**Just a warning, I accidentally wrote 1000+ words and probably more then half of them are slightly off topic

My NOTP for them

If I had to choose, probably Ryou Bakura/Yami Bakura but only because I write him (Thief) as 32/34 and them as 16/18 and as his little brothers. So I can’t see them in a romantic light, which is a shame cause I had this cool fic I was writing back in 2016/17 that I can’t finish cause I write Thief so differently these days. But as found family they are absolutely the best group you could imagine!!! (Thief virtually is prepared to sign adoption papers for them in most things I’ve been writing lately. Hideki doesn’t mind letting his sons have an extra sibling so it’s all good.) In saying that I still adore when others draw them (mostly cause I know they draw a different Thief King to me)

My BROTP for them

Mai Valentine, I mean they’d gossip about girls and boys all day and go shopping maxing out Thief’s budget constantly and never even leaving a dent in Mai’s. They stay up late watching trashy tv with the most sarcastic remarks and they try on perfume together. They have loads of fun, Ishizu still isn’t overly keen on Thief but still her GF loves him, what she gonna do? It confuses people sometimes since Mai on odd occasions refers to Thief as Big Brother and Thief refers to her as Big Sister. They don’t know why they can’t both be the oldest sibling.

My OTP for them

Atemu!!! (Pharaoh Atemu, not Yami Yuugi-I count all Yami’s as completely separate people to their host or past selves) but I love enemies to lovers and the amount of times Thief has tried to kill Atemu until it turned into crappy flirting and plus while he was trying to murder the guy, Atemu still felt compelled to help bandage him up if any of the attempts backfired like when Atemu moved in with Yuugi for a while to figure life out and Yuugi smashed Thief with a chess board. Yeah… he kinda kept breaking into Atemu’s places to fight, Solomon set up a curfew and battle hours because Yuugi needs his sleep.

My second choice pairing for them

Hmmm, honestly not to sure. I kinda been stuck on the he’s married to Atemu thing for a few years now? maybe if I wrote him younger, Otogi? but honestly I made all the ancient peeps a lot older then the main cast, I just can’t think of anyone from that era for him as a second choice pairing. But I mean him and Otogi can sit around playing with dice and looking fabulous. Plus I think Thief would 100% support his dice game, anything to show up duel monsters just cause he knows how important it is to Atemu and co. The only issue with this pairing would be that Otogi and Malik’s relationship can be iffy and Thief would probably be one of Malik’s besties if they were the same age -_-

Actually!!! I changed my mind, but like a platonic ship if thats fine, I mean Otogi was sorta platonic anyway so I doubt it matters. But Kisara. I feel like she could kick his ass and he’d be totally amazed by that, plus she looks flawless and moves so swiftly when she kicks him in the cheek to stop him stealing her lunch. He also likes that she’s sorta deceiving cause no one expects her to stand up for herself and he smirks, takes a step back as she tells off whatever jackass was being rude to them. That and they can share jewellery and stuff, probably have things in common about lost and found family, young deaths, unjust deaths. Fire… I honestly don’t know a lot about Kisara but this old RPer (they’ve sadly deactivated) wrote her really well and I’ve read one or two short fics about them and thought they were cute!!! ((still leaving my above answer just cause))

My fluffy pairing for them

Atemu… I know it’s enemies to lovers, but like image when they get to the lovers stage. They’d be so cute and fluffy half of the time. I bet Thief would love to snuggle up to his husband and probably bite him at random yes… but still! I love writing random domestic stuff too and they’re so cute. Thief cleans their place and if Atemu tries, Thief just redoes it claiming he did it wrong. Where as if Thief cooks, Atemu has to recook it since it’s all basically raw. Atemu is supposedly Thief’s control tower to stop him doing stupid stuff, but honestly Atemu can get distracted from time to time and find himself in the middle of it instead -haha >u< ((Yeah for people who didn’t know, basically all I write about is casteshipping already married or engaged. It’s like my second or third favourite yugioh pairing - I say that cause currently two are tied for first, otherwise it’d be second for sure))

My angsty pairing for them

Mahado / Dark Magician. I’ll admit I’ve never written or drawn them romantically and Mahado’s aromatic and not very interested in a relationship let alone one with Thief, but I do like their dynamic. In all honestly I feel like there’d be a lot of difficult feelings between them, different to how Thief would be with Atemu. Atemu he blamed for a massacre his uncle did and his parents hid. Thief may never forgive Atemu for this, not completely but he can come to terms with it, it wasn’t his fault and they were both messed up kids by fate and the Gods.

Where as Mahado, he fought along side Atemu and I do believe him and Atemu are best friends, but theres a lot of difficult feelings between him and Thief that I don’t think either would want to address or bring up so they’d put it off until you could cut the tension with a knife somedays. It’s complicated.

Thief doesn’t overly hold many hard feelings toward Mahado in a general sense, not for the things that happened in their first life, if anything he’d probably be the one to form the crush first. But Mahado, Thief killed him. Thief threatened the life he knew, everything her cared about was threatened because some misguided child waged a war against his childhood best friend over something he didn’t even do. Mahado has trouble seeing that Thief has changed, that things are different now, he more so tolerates him. Which pisses Thief off because he’s worked hard on himself and it hasn’t been easy putting his entire past behind him when it was apart of him for so long, and he thinks Mahado can still be a ‘Self sacrificing coward with no will of his own. Pathetic.’ If they dated I’d say they’d break up, but I do enjoy the dynamic and the idea.

My favourite poly ship for them

And despite the above statement, most likely Atemu and Mahado. Mostly cause I think Atemu would be interested in a three way, while he admits it’d most likely be a very hate filled three way, he’s curious. Thief and Mahado took a hard pass.

My weirdest pairing for them

IDK, most of the things I do with Thief revolve around him being married to Atemu, Mahado checking in on him to make sure he’s not fucking things up ((the gods assigned Mahado to do this)) Thief adopting Ryou and Bakura cause Hideki’s always working and Amos and Amelia are dead. He plays big brother a lot of the time, and I say he’d like guys only so IDK between everyone being too young for him in the universe I’ve created in my head and I’ll be honest I got sorta off track with canon and non-canon when it comes to ages and siblings and family and everything else. Also Zorc is trapped in another dimension and he calls him his uncle when people ask and Diabound is just Diabound, his protector and guardian angel. Basically watches over him…

Picture by itself

I have more ideas because yes

Daisey still had three evil exes that consist of Holly and two other ocs of mine (Andreas and Kiko) but I think Howdy just scares the three of them

Holly is kind of a bully character at the start but she warms up to the other neighbors (mainly the girls, she hates men relatable)

Eddie and Howdy experimented with each other in high school, that’s how Howdy figured out he was bi (my hc ofc)

They didn’t work out romantically but they’re still super close

Daisey can carry Howdy. I just think that’s funny considering Howdy is almost twice their height

Howdy moved out of his parents’s house when he was barely 18 because his parents kept treating him like trash for not being as “accomplished” as his siblings. The only reason he still talks to them is for his siblings’s sake

Howdy stayed at Eddie’s place after he left home, he bunked in the guest bedroom and helped with chores around the house while he looked for a job to pay rent (it wasn’t required, but he still wanted to pay because they were super sweet to let him stay)

Howdy took care of Lizzy the most, even suggesting the nickname Lizzy to begin with. Everyone just called her Ellie before that and she hated that nickname. That’s why she stayed with him after the whole turning into a butterfly thing

Howdy drives Lizzy to school and embarrasses her like an dad plying loud music to annoy her when dropping her off at the school

Holly is an ice skater, she wins local competitions all the time. Wallace is a photographer, his portfolio is full of pictures of Holly performing. He just liked taking photos of his sister being happy

Daisey cries when wintertime comes around. They just can’t stand to see all the plants die because of the cold. They legit cry over every little flower they see dead and covered in snow on the ground. They get cuddles as a form of consolation

Frank knits in his spare time, he makes scarfs for all his neighbors

Sally and Holly are besties. Sassy besties/gfs maybe?? 💅

Wallace might or might not have a crush on Barnaby, Holly judges him immensely for it because she thinks Barnaby is stinky and weird and very annoying(she’s half true), but whatever makes her brother happy I suppose

Andreas and Howdy don’t get along. Andreas reminds Howdy of a very specific brother of his and he wants nothing to do with it

This is random but everyone does karaoke

Again, I put too many :,>

Also I’m just gonna put it here, if you have any ideas or questions or just anything you want to share with me, don’t be scared to send an ask! I like hearing other people’s ideas :D

Howdy scaring anyone is hilarious to me, with what? His insane scamming- I mean Business techniques?

Ah yes Eddie and Howdy having dated at some point is great. Howdy would rather it Not be mentioned I imagine while Eddie is just proud of himself for being Howdy's Bi Awakening pfff

And just everything about Howdy staying with Eddie's family, just,, yes. Love it

Howdy being the extremely embarrassing dad/older brother checks out lol

I feel like Holly would threaten someone with her skates,, and mean it. Sally is very impressed and encourages it haha

I also cry when my favorite tree loses it leaves/flowers so me too Daisey

Frank and Poppy get together to have tea, knit, and gossip. It's canon I was there I promise

Wallace go get your dog, don't let anyone stop you lol

hell yeah karaoke. Sally gets really into it. Frank and Julie are dueting. Wally is just reading the lyrics.

leap of faith — sano manjiro x reader.

word count — 1.3k.

genre — fluff fluff fluff, i love sweet mikey.

contains — cursing, timeskip SPOILERS present, reader is gender neutral.

description — sano manjiro is in love with you, and he realizes how much he loves you at the ass crack of fuckin' dawn.

author's note — hey besties, this is my first published fic here, kinda short but mikey brain rot is heavy. i hope you enjoy this cute fic before i rip your hearts out with some angst in a few days :^) reblogs and likes are always appreciated! and please give me feedback in my inbox! hehe, enjoy.

“it’s late.”

you know. but you still wanted to hear the sound of his voice before bed.

“mm… i missed ya’, is that a crime?” your voice echos through the receiver, the sound of your duvet crinkling in the background as you shift in place. sano manjiro was a busy man. always has been, always will be. being the leader of a biker gang was never easy—let alone some “new age” criminal organization.

you didn’t understand why manjiro persisted to play this game of russian roulette with his life. but it was never your place to overstep, especially since this was his life. it was all he knew, all he understood. you’re not sure what he’s doing, or if he’s even allowed to talk on the phone at this hour, but you still wanted to hear him. just so you know he’s alive and well.

you hear him chuckle, the sound of his feet scurrying against whatever floor his sandals were clacking against. the background noise that accompanied him earlier has dissipated; you realized he probably went outside to hear you better.

“your crime is loving a fool like me way too much. don’t think you’re sane.” he’s right. you’re actually crazy for even pursuing him. there was a lot of push and shove in the beginning, both parties scared of being hurt and getting hurt. but you were always there, even when manjiro went through whatever darkness was eating at his soul.

“crazy for you.”

“corny.”

“you love me.”

a pause. eerie enough to send shivers down your spine. why wasn’t he responding? did something happen? did you smother him too much? is he regretting—

“marry me.”

… not what you were expecting. especially not over the phone.

“sano manjiro, did you just propose over the phone? what kind of shitty rom-com are we in?”

“is that a no?”

“... never said that.” you wanted to marry him. but you wanted him to put that lifestyle behind, for the sake of the family you might have in the future. kids, dogs, cats, etcetera. you wanted him to be in, one hundred percent. but you knew he was too deep into this world to run now—especially since he’s so well-known as the ‘invincible mikey.’ you still longed for a happy home with manjiro, and a normal life.

“maybe you’re right. it’s not my style to ask you this over the phone.”

“try again later. when you’re really ready.”

the gag is, he is ready.

manjiro hurries home, blond locks hidden underneath a thin, black hoodie. he’s shaking, like a pomeranian in the presence of fireworks. his hand meets the left side of his chest, back pressed up against the grey colored wall of your shared apartment as he slides down to sit on the floor. it was four in the morning, and manjiro was about to shit himself.

he gulps, eyes peering around for you, double checking that you were fast asleep before he makes a phone call. his fingers tapped the back of his iphone, impatiently waiting for the other caller to answer. though it was the crack of dawn, he still needed some moral support.

“mikey? fuck you callin’ for at this hour? haven’t heard from you in mo—”

“ken-chin. i’m proposing.”

a loud ‘flop’ rang through the receiver, accompanied by the bedsheets seemingly slipping underneath draken’s feet. it was a huge bomb to drop, especially when the duo has been separated for months on end. manjiro hears more shuffling, followed by a few curses. “you’re fucking lying. the one you’ve been one since—?”

“yeah. i’m crazy as hell. but i love them. head over heels. i’m a goddamn simp.”

“why the hell am i the first to know, man?”

“you’re m’best friend, even if i need to stay away from you. and, also… you’re not the first to know. i asked them already.”

“you WHAT? don’t fuckin’ tell me you did it some dumb way like over the pho— you did. you’re impulsive enough to do it like that, too.” regardless of how long it’s been, draken still knows and understands manjiro like nothing ever happened.

“yeah… not romantic. but i can’t see myself with anyone else. i trust no one else. but i… am…”

“scared? man, you’re the head of a criminal organization. ‘course you’re scared. you don’t want the love of your life… to get hurt…” his voice trails off and manjiro’s heart tenses even more. the memories of the past still felt fresh. all the people they lost in tokyo manji… could never be replaced. not in a million years.

but the living must live.

“i love y/n. never felt like this before. i’d quit everything. but i would have to make sure they’re safe and whatever future we have together is secure. i know i promised takemichi that i’d protect everyone and that future he worked so hard to save… but what about mine?”

manjiro really did sacrifice everything for his friends. being the type of person who carries everyone else’s burdens takes a toll on his mental. he felt selfish for wanting to leave it all behind. but maybe being selfish was beneficial once in a while.

“listen—”

“do you think i’m stupid?”

“mikey. you’re not stupid,” draken sighs, shuffling again in place. “you just want to love someone and be loved in return. nothin’ stupid about that. what is stupid though, is you proposing over the damn phone.”

he’s not wrong. it was a spur of the moment decision that could drastically change his life forever. but with you, he doesn’t care. as long as you’re his, forever.

“how do you think i should do it?”

“well. i guess, tell me some sappy shit. how do you feel about them, and whatnot.”

“i don’t think i could ever imagine me with anyone else. a lot of people have tried to grab my attention but i only have eyes for y/n. sometimes when shit gets real hard…” manjiro takes a deep sigh, fingers threading through his hair, tilting back the hood to let it fall onto his back. “i think of y/n and i remember that even in this shit world, someone is here for me. someone cares about me. they make me feel like i’m not alone anymore.

i have dreams ‘bout us, y’know? me and y/n… kids running around. a little mikey clone. pissin’ them off because we want little flags on our meals. going to the park and letting kids be kids. maybe i’ll teach ‘em at a dojo like gramps did for me and my siblings. maybe i’ll teach ‘em about bikes—with your help, of course.”

draken laughs, letting his friend continue his little speech as he gets comfortable in bed again. don’t think i’ve ever seen mikey like this, ever, draken muses.

“man, we can own a whole zoo if we wanted. chifuyu could hook us up, in secret, of course. still have to protect everyone,” manjiro is grinning from ear to ear, head resting against the wall. “i wanna grow old with them. honestly, i didn’t think i’d make it to my twenties. more so, i didn’t want to live past twenty-something. but now… things are different. wanna be old and gray. see grandkids terrorize our children. die together.”

the tension in manjiro’s chest has faded away, only left with warmth that only you could bring him. his free hand reaches into his pocket to fumble with a small box, snapping it open to reveal the engagement ring his grandfather handed down to him.

he wasn’t the marrying type. but for you, he was.

“that all? you sound good like that, man. make an exception and let us come to the wedding.”

manjiro wants that more than anything. his friends, you... all safe. all happy. but again, the fear creeps up. he doesn’t know what to do with himself if any of you get hurt.

“... how do i tell y/n that?”

“you already have.” your voice makes him jump, knocking the velvet box out of his fingers and onto the hardwood floor. his face pales, followed by a huge lump forming at his throat when he sees your figure emerge from your shared bedroom.

“i-uh… i thought you were a-asleep.” manjiro mumbles, earning a huge laugh from draken on the other side. he hears him say something along the lines of ‘my cue to leave. good luck. send me an invite.’

“i was waiting for you.”

he’s sweating now, a small bead forming at the base of his neck. his phone is now at his side, the screen flashing from draken’s caller id to the lockscreen photo of you on your first date together, a few years back. your eyes zone into the box, though.

“i was going to do this… better. god, i fucked up, huh?”

you’re laughing now, rubbing your tired eyes before you join him near the wall, picking up the box. “what makes you think that, dummy?”

now he’s confused. you wanted him to ask when he was serious, but in his head, serious meant rose petals, candles, someone singing celine dion in the distance.

without a word, you slip the ring onto its appropriate finger, holding up to the small rays of sunlight that peaked through the window from the approaching sunrise. manjiro’s hands fly up to your face, holding his whole world in his hands. his eyes are shiny, on the brink of tears. you nudge your noses together, foreheads connecting tenderly. your hands hooked onto the hem of his hoodie, bringing his frame closer as you whisper a soft ‘yes.’

“yes?”

“yes, i’ll marry you.”

manjiro’s lips curl up into the silliest grin you’ve ever seen him sport, before he presses a soft kiss to your lips. now he’s kissing you quite desperately. as if he’s trying to make sure you’re real, that this isn’t a dream. you feel his words vibrate against your lips, “gonna make you so happy, i promise. i love you. i love you so, so much.”

“forevermore.”

“forever yours.”

Knightly fashion and Social duties - Stephanie Brown x Reader.

Summary: Stephanie has a costume party to attend, but feels insecure.

Word count: 2227.

Warnings: Anxiety; Established relationship; Cursing; Reader wearing a dress.

No pronouns specified for reader.

Author’s notes: Did Halloween put me on my tracks with writing again? Yes, yes it did. Was Stephanie the right character for my return? Yes, absolutely.

Halloween was supposed to be fun. But the longer Stephanie looked in the mirror, the more dread she carried inside.

When talking about her opinions on couples' costumes, she never hesitated on expressing her love for them. Putting on a bomb outfit was one thing, but doing so in match with someone she absolutely adored? Nothing else fulfilled her as much these holidays.

But this year took a slightly different turn the moment you tried to convince her to do differently from what she had planned.

Two pairs of eyes stare at each other’s reflection through a series of combined mirrors, one of them certainly more confident to the images looking back.

“Sure these are the ones?”

“Yes! It might take a few interventions from my sewing machine, but I guess our search ends here.” She thought for a moment. “Unless that’s not the one for you? I know I said the found was perfect and all, but we can keep looking if you’re not comfortable... You do look pretty cute, though. Just saying.” She states with her hands swaying behind her back, giving you a cute wink herself.

You smile bashfully.

“No, no, that’s not it. Just not sure I understand what you’re going for here...?” you signaled to both of your dresses, catching the European look you think she’s looking for. They're quite simple, yours giving more maiden-like vibes in comparison (maybe part of the changes she mentioned before?). “I thought you wanted to do couples this year? Showing up together at campus and all that?”

“Of course! That’s the whole point of being official this year.” You chuckle, and she gives you confused puppy eyes.

“Well, hopefully not the whole point...” you search for her hand and hold her in yours. “But how exactly do two princesses fall into romantic pair territory?”

Steph uses her free hand to make a sign of fake offense, not letting go of yours.

“Are you implying sapphic royalties isn’t the hottest and most trendy concept I could’ve come up with?” your lips form a straight line, trying to hold a laugh at how serious she sounds saying that.

“Well, not exactly... I just don’t think people will get it. They’ll probably assume we’re besties or siblings, as usual.”

“Not if I keep you around closer than appropriate for either of those theories...” she wiggles her eyebrows and pulls you close when she sees a smile on your face, proving her point by kissing you.

“I guess that could work.”

Silence.

“But..?” she says expectantly.

“But… I don’t know, really... Guess I just had expectations for the whole thing. I mean, you’re always rocking beautiful dresses every chance you get. For this night, I thought it was not only your chance to piss off your weird crime-fighting family by not helping them figure out whatever Calendar Man has planned, but also, to not do what was expected of you...”

Stephanie reflects on your words, confusion written all over her face. She thinks she might be grasping some of what you’re saying, but it’s not something she’ll like to hear for the moment.

She doesn’t want to give it up right away, though, so she settles for “Okay? Is this your way of saying you wanted more shots in the creative process? ‘Cause I might be open for suggestions if you’re having doubts” she lets go of you and plays with one of her earrings instead, closing her eyes and waiting for your response.

You freeze, not used to her putting you in the spotlights when it comes to fashion. But maybe it’s for the best to take her up on that offer.

She can’t see it, but you nod and go on your way around the big store, dragging the skirt of your dress as you walk.

Steph sees you off, eventually, but decides not to follow, not even with her eyes (a big feat, if she says so herself). She settles for looking in the mirror, second thoughts suddenly hitting.

Her dress was fancy but not too much, and there weren’t any plans on adding many extras either. She chose something more reminiscent of the middles ages, rather than victorian as she would’ve preferred, and was thinking on the ‘why’ of that decision.

Was she trying to blend in?

Maybe you were right in that your costumes could’ve been something else, something more on-the-face sort of thing, to show that you were now an item.

She could’ve gone all the way in the assemble themselves as well. And yet, that was never even an option in her head.

Oh god, what if you were offended by it? She didn’t mean to do it on purpose, but now—

“Hey! I think I found something!” the sound of your voice finds her. And so, she raises her head slowly, trying to be excited for whatever it is you have for her, but then...

“A knight? Seriously?”

“No. A female knight! Come on, don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence they have armour, close to your size mind you, when I’m literally dressed like this? I’d say it’s fate.”

“And I’d say you’re reaching. I’m dressed like this too, so why’s that costume for me?”

You fumble with your body and the armour, trying to plead with her in good faith. “You're already a freaking superhero! You wear suits for ass-kicking all the time! Would it be such a crime to dress as what you could’ve been in another time?”

She raises an eyebrow, silently asking if you truly believe any part of that explanation so confidently.

When you don’t falter, she crosses her arms and lets out a sigh. You pout, hanging the outfit close by, and coming closer to start giving her a few strokes on her biceps.

“Pleaseee? It’s just a fit-on. I won’t press any longer if you don’t like it... You’ll look so beautiful though, I can tell.” you give her cheeks a few pecks to seal the deal.

It doesn’t take more than that for her to start showing a grin. A coy look on her features.

“Fine... Hand it over.”

And Christ, did she looked good on it.

She ended up liking it more than she thought she would.

Adjusting the pieces to fit better and adding her own touch was proven more difficult than regular fabric would’ve been. But when she figured it out? She was proud of herself and enjoyed the fit even more.

It made her feel powerful too.

Looking at it now, however, an hour away for the party to start, she was having her doubts.

You were in the bathroom finishing your makeup, and made her promise not to interfere. That way, you could show her how much you learned from all the times she did your looks.

She feels a little better remembering how happy you were about that, but it doesn’t uplift her mood entirely. The look of a girl like her on full armour, hands rubbing together in a shy manner, was pathetic on her eyes.

She sits on the bed in front of the mirror in her bedroom with her head down, hoping to calm down soon enough. Before you notice, and get involved.

Not a chance.

“You think there’s any bronzer of yours I could borrow? It seems I left mine back h—” you stop on your tracks when faced with Stephanie’s current state. She looks startled, and on the brink of tears.

“Baby, what’s wrong?” you rush foward to kneel in front of her.

She tries to respond but curses when all that comes out is a sob. A weak “I don’t think I wanna go anymore...” is what she manages on her second attempt.

You look at her with furrowed brows, catching her hands when she throws them down in frustration.

“Why? Did something happen?”

“Everything’s happening! I never go out to any of this crap, the city could be burning on the other side of the bridge, and I’m sure nobody wants me in any said scene whatsoever.” She looks to the side, a little embarrassed by dumping all this stuff on you.

“You know that’s not true.”

She lets out a bitter laugh.

“Isn't it?”

“Of course not! I want you there, or anywhere else, for that matter. Just let me tag along, and I’m fine.” You kiss her on the forehead and rise to sit on her lap, wrapping your arms around her. She returns the hug. Keeping one of your arms around her neck for comfort and putting her head on the crook of yours. “What’s really bothering you? You were excited a few days ago. You kept sending me photos of how the costumes were coming along.” She keeps silent. Biting her lip before saying:

“I wasn’t... Not about the party, anyways.”

“Why not?”

“I just told you! I—” she closes her eyes. “I never show up to this stuff. Nobody cares enough to invite me, anyways.” you hum, knowing she wasn’t finished. “I just don’t know how to act around them, how to be me— No, not even that, but anything else. It’s no good. People make fun of me either way, making me out to be some sort of freak, even to myself! and I hate it.” She takes a breath. “I can’t show up, not like this.”

“Hmmm...” you focus on threading your fingers through her loose hair once she’s done, choosing your words carefully. “Well, that... Yeah, that sounds awful.” you chuckle. “But you know what standouts to me the most? How much power you’re giving them— To these people you don’t even care about! Listen, I— maybe I’m making things worse, but Steph— You said it yourself, they’re going to talk shit no matter what! So why not be your most authentic, confident, and beautiful self while you’re at it? Huh? I know, easier said than done but maybe we could—” you come to a halt when you feel a pair of lips on your neck, coming up to your jaw, and finishing up on your mouth.

“Shut up.” she’s still a bit lower than you, head-wise, courtesy of the lift she’s providing you by being still on her lap.

You find it utterly adorable.

“Kiss me like that again, and I might.” she smirks and does as you say.

You spent a long time like that, enjoying each other closeness. Trying to ignore the reasons you’re were both agitated not long ago. But when you feel some noise on the front door, followed by the sound of her mother’s voice announcing she’s home... You separate, feeling giggles coming out of your chests as Steph hugs you for support while you hide your head in her shoulder.

A princess with her knight, indeed.

“I was serious about earlier, y’know?” she rolls her eyes.

“Yeah, yeah, face my fears or whatever, yadda yadda yadda.”

“I mean... Duh, you’re the Spoiler, for fuck’s sake. The same one who fights psychopaths every night and doesn't even get paid for it! You absolutely can and should tell dumb college idiots to fuck off. But that’s not what I was referring to.”

She’s not sure what you’re trying to say with that, so she blinks away your words in hope that something comes to her, but it doesn’t.

“Enlighten me, then?” she says.

“Maybe we could go somewhere else instead?” You start. “Or not, and just stay in... It’ll be a shame for the costumes, which I know you worked hard for! But we could do a mean photo session in your room anyways. Make some memories, yeah?”

Steph listens to your words intently but can’t help not feeling guilty about your suggestions.

“You sure? Thought you were really into going out like this, showing off, and all that...”

“It’s you I’m into, okay?” You raise her head by the chin for a quick kiss. “I'll be happy as long as you are. Besides…” you say nonchalantly “There’ll be plenty of chances to show off my hot, weird girlfriend around.” You wink at her, going for a boop on the nose before she decides to tackle you into the bed instead.

“Take that back!”

A fit of laughter ensues.

“No!”

“Oh yeah? ‘Cause I think there might be a pool of dragons out through that window who would like a word, Princess.”

She tries to threaten with her sword for you to make a line for the opening (as if it’s suddenly pirates you’re disguising as), and it’s just too precious.

You give in.

“Alright, Alright!” You stroke her cheek. “You're not weird, just a regular dork.” That makes her almost spit out in laughter.

“I’ll take it.” She stares at you. Her eyes warm and joyful. You mirror her, a fond smile forming on your own.

“So...” your fingers go up her armoured arm. “What’s it gonna be then? Where or what should we do for the night?”

Her answer doesn’t come soon enough.

Instead, she opts for a kiss, one that tells you all kinds of other things: That she loves you. How happy she is, but also that she feels the same. That any place or activity comes short compared to just being together.

So yeah, whatever it is, she’s content with and feels prepared for.

As long as you’re beside her.

my thoughts on shang chi

obviously spoilers under the cut

- ten rings but they're actually bracelets

-i despise the romantic tension between the mother and the father in the first fight scene

- jiang li is so badass i love her

- when jiang li uses the rings, theyre gold, just like when shang chi uses them, so my theory is when xialing uses the rings, theyre blue, like her father

- the best misdirect is that shang chi is actually rich when in reality hes a valet

-the music in this is quality

- i want a friendship like katy and shang chi

- you fucking tell them katy

- the bus fight scene is the fucking best (actually all the fight scenes are the best)

- the MUSIC

- yas shang chi king shit right there

- the audacity that xu 'radiating bisexual energy' shang chi didnt ever do peace sign or finger guns is a travesty

- katy and shang chi are chaotic besties and i love them

- aw man the poor college students computer

- i appreciate that whenever shang chi or katy fell into each other it wasnt romantic in the slightest

- 'go you freak' katy im love you

- xialing could have stopped thanos by herself

- me, who lived in la for over half of my life: oh hey i know that!

- xialing shang chi katy chaotic trio when

- i love xialingxkaty so much

- wong is iconic and i love him

- 'now take your shirt off' dude whos name i dont remember you're iconic

- xialing marry katy challenge

- xialing could fucking murder me and i would thank her

- the paralells between xialing catching katy and shang chi catching katy is so funny bc when shang chi caught katy it was so platonic and then xialing had like five seconds of romantic eye contact with katy and they fell in love

- and THEN WHEN KATY CATCHES XIALING AND THEYRE GAY AND I LOVE THEM - these fight scenes are so good oh my god

- i fucking hate the father please die right now

- xialing uses she/they pronouns no i do not take arguments

- queens supporting queens

- *chanting* ace ring ace ring ace ring ace ring ace ring

- jiang li deserved so much better than the fucking father

- we deserved more scenes of xialing and shang chi being chaotic siblings

- fuck this bitch and his sexist fucking army i hope they die

- katy only cried out in anger when xialing was thrown in this essay i will-

- i want to live in ta lo it sounds so much cooler

- AWWWW MORRIS I LOVE YOU I WANT ONEEEEEE

- 'chicken pig' my beloved

- xialing i love you

- SHE GIVES THE KEYS TO KATY

- ta lo is so pretty

- i dont know what morris is but i know i want one

- xialing looks so sad when her aunt says welcome home because shes never felt at home until now

- xu xialing please step on me

- i love that you can find the similiarities and differences between the fighting styles in ta lo and the fighting stylves of the ten rings because the ten rings style radiates violence and pain while the ta lo style is more gentle, more calm, more on focusing your energy.

- THEY FIGHT SMARTER NOT HARDER - tiny shang chi and xialing are so cute

- the mother should have let the iron gang or whatever kill the father

- BE THERE FOR YOUR CHILDREN YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE

- can this idiot not see the winged hellspawn coming out of the mountain

- D R A G O N

- the mirror between the last fight scene between shang chi and his father and the father and the mother is so cool i love it

- xialing deserved half of the ten rings (also a girlfriend) (actually both)

- YASSS KATY FUCKING KILLING IT

- the shang chi cinematography my beloved

- yes xialing kill him

- their armor is so prettyyyyy

- (i dont remember what i wrote this about but its a quality fucking line) its called deceit you whore

- everyone in this movie is badass except for the villians, who are just asses

- katy being starstruck over carol danvers is a mood i love her

- i kinda love the way it seems like all magic is connected thats awesome

- wong shang chi and katy doing karaoke i love

- XIALING AS A VILLIAN IS SO BADASS YES QUEEN

tl:dr xialing and katy are a power couple, i love xialing, the cinematography in this movie is awesome, i want to kill the father

#val rambles #shang chi spoilers #shang chi #shang chi and the legend of the ten rings #THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME EVERYONE GO SEE IT #and xialingxkaty #xialing x katy #katy #xialing

CRUSHING ON YOUR BSFS BROTHER (HQ)

@defnotanotherhaikyuusimp

Alrighty

Ever since you and your bed were little

You’ve always had a crush on their older brother 👀

But there was a slight problem 🥲

Your friend 100% did NOT approve of your crush

I mean can you blame them....

He’s their brother

Your their friend

Things would get a little awkward

But little did you know...

Tsukishima liked you back 🤭

But he’s a cocky little shit

So he ALWAYS flirted with you!

Just to see you all flustered

It was cute to him

But of course it just made you embarrassed

Tour friend would always tell him off

But it never worked...

One day he just caved and told you he liked you

And you both decided to date behind your friends back

Of course you we’re gonna tell them eventually!

But for now they didn’t need to know 🙂

This went on for about a year

That’s right, a whole year of you two sneaking around your friend trying to keep your relationship on the down low

But eventually you two thought it was finally time to tell his sister and your very best friend about your relationship

Surely they would be shocked and betrayed and-

They knew.....

THEY FUCKING KNEW?!??!!

Apparently you two weren’t very discreet about your little relationship

They admitted they were a little upset at first

But you two just seemed so happy

Do they decided to let it slide

Also if y’all got married TECHNICALLY you guys would be related 😗

So that was a bonus

After you told your friend you two basically just dated in peace

Finally

Ok this one makes more sense cuz he has a little sister 👀

Okkkkkk

You we’re obviously his little sisters friend

And once you met her brother

Oh you fell hard

You always tried to be as inconspicuous as possible

But she started getting suspicious 🤨

Like why did you only want to hang out at her house?

And why did you ALWAYS make an effort to go to her brothers games??

One day she had enough and questioned you about it

And that’s when you had told her about your crush on her brother

But unlike tsukishimas sibling....

She was SO EXCITED

She encouraged your crush

I mean she liked you

and she liked her brother

Obviously it would be a match made in heaven 😃

But poor you

You we’re too nervous to tell him 🥲

But...

let’s just say his little sister can’t keep a secret to save her life

Yup, she tatted you out

Granted it was on accident

He had asked if you were dating anyone at dinner one night

And she accidentally said something about you not wanting to date anyone but him...

Yeah...

Your next interaction with him was a little awkward

But he ended up asking you out?!?!?

Apparently he’s liked you for a while

The only reason why he asked if you were seeing anyone was so he could find out if you were available

And APPARENTLY you we’re

Oml his sister was ECSTATIC

Home girl had already started planning your wedding for crying out loud

But hey I would get used to it

Cuz if all went well:..

She was gonna be your new sister in law 👀

Oop

Ok unlike the other two

Kuroos sister was trying to play matchmaker and get you two to date

The reason for this being...

You guys would CONSTANTLY flirt with eachother

It started with just Kuroo flirting and teasing you

But over time you started to tease and flirt back

And sure you both liked each other

But neither of you were sure if feelings were mutual

So you both just brushed it off as a “friendship thing”

But it was painfully obvious that you two liked each other

But apparently you two were romantically dense 😃

Because neither of you would confess...

So operation “get Kuroo a s/o who’s also her bestie” was a go

Jesus Christ you two didn’t make it easy for her

Once again....

Romantically Dense

She tried EVERYTHING

From leaving forged letters

To sending you flowers “from Kuroo”

NOTHING WORKED

But one day you came over for dinner

And you and Kuroo were doing your casual flirting

Then something just snapped in his sister

“Omg you two just fucking date already”

The room went silent...

You got really hot in the face

And Kuroo turned bright red

Then Kuroo started stuttering about taking you out on a date

And in turn you stuttered out what sounded like a yes

Misto’s Mating Dance Partners

Because the White Cat Lift AKA Mating Dance scene of the Jellicle Ball focuses mainly on Victoria and whoever she’s dancing with, what’s going on in the background is often ignored. But, there’s a clear pattern. The other cats pair off, go to the edges of the stage, forming a circle around Victoria and Her Man. They then do...whatever. There don’t seem to be official rules for what the pairs do, so some of them nap, some of the stare out into space, some of them cuddle...

And some of them blatantly fuck.

This scene is often called the Cat Orgy because of the blatant fucking that often occurs. So, you can watch the characters, see who pairs up with who and whether or not they fuck. Because Misto is my favorite character and one of the easiest to identify in even low-quality bootlegs, I went and watched him during this scene in every production in my bootleg collection.

Part One: Failure

In several of the older productions, I couldn’t see anything. Bootleggers and professionals alike tended to zoom in on Victoria and Her Man and stay there for most of the scene. Mexico 1991 mainly did this. Also, Vienna, with its Dark Voids and Weird Editing Choices was impossible to decipher.

Among the newer productions, Madrid was lost to Weird Editing Choices. Most of the dance wasn’t even visible! There were long close ups on Old Deuteronomy and Grizabella doing nothing when they should have been filming Victoria and Plato doing Something. It wasn’t even like they were distracted by an interesting background event. They just held the camera on characters who weren’t doing anything other than Reacting Slightly.

Part Two: Mistoria

Paris and Zurich paired Misto with Victoria for the Mating Dance. There was a slightly different dynamic with Misto and Victoria than there is when Plato or Tumblebrutus is Victoria’s Man. When Plato or Tumble, the most common choices for this part, approach Victoria, they’re awkward, but they still sort of take the lead. Victoria comes across as a bit shy at first, but she quickly gets into it. In the Mistoria versions, Misto is far more nervous approaching and often jumps back startled after touching Victoria. It feels like Victoria takes the lead in these versions, turning her back and basically being like “lift me”. Zurich Misto in particular is practically freaking out and the lift is kind of bizarre to watch because he looks so tiny!

Part Three: You’d Think Misto/Cassandra Would Be a Bigger Ship

Broadway-based productions, which paired Alonzo with Demeter, seemed to love pairing Misto with Cassandra for the Mating Dance. Troika and Buenos Aires did this and they did it in the same way. Misto and Cassandra practically have a dance of their own, performing the same motions when paired together. Usually, these pairs tend to seem like they’re improvising a little, but this specific couple has its own choreography.

The idea to pair Misto and Cassandra most likely comes from Misto later choosing Cassandra as his “lovely assistant” when he brings back Old Deuteronomy. In most productions, they don’t have much interaction outside of that. In Troika, Cassandra is also one of the cats who sometimes stands in for Coricopat and Tantomile, who were cut. Coricopat and Tantomile’s twin stuff was given to Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer, while a lot of their psychic moments were given to either Demeter or Cassandra. So, in Troika, Misto and Cassandra are both mystical cats of some sort, which brings them together, because it’s something other cats don’t get.

I’m not super into this ship, because I generally don’t ship Misto with women, but the implications of the pairing in the Troika version are interesting.

Part Four: Lonely Misto

Hamburg, The German Tent Tour, and probably Moscow didn’t pair Misto with anyone. He just sat by himself. In Hamburg, there was a reason for this. Just like how Buenos Aires and Troika gave Misto’s role of fetching Old Deuteronomy to Skimble, Hamburg has a Mistotable instead of a Skimbletable.

I probably should’ve listed Moscow as a failure, but I’m still not sure what happened there.

The German Tent Tour just has Misto sitting by himself. He crawls to the Cuddle Pile, does a handstand, and no one cares.

But, the German Tent Tour shows signs of being part of a trend. While earlier, Broadway-based shows liked pairing Misto and Cassandra, newer productions never seem sure who to pair him with, so you have this scene of a lonely Misto surrounded by happy, horny straight couples and looking a bit out of place. This was probably unintentional, but it gives Misto an extra layer of gay coding.

Part Five: More Recent Stuff That Doesn’t Fit in the Other Categories

The 2013 UK Tour does something a bit interesting. Misto just sort of naps during the Mating Dance, but Carbucketty, who’s been following him around and imitating his dance moves for the past few minutes, lies down to nap at his feet. They don’t really interact and they’re barely touching, but it still counts as a pair. This is the closest I’ve gotten to finding a version where Misto’s paired with a tom. Of course, compared to most of the straight couples in any version of this scene, there is no horniness to be found. So, they’re two bros napping next to each other, but not quite cuddling ‘cause they’re not gay :(

Also I think Carbucketty might’ve ditched Misto for Rumpleteazer at the last second. We can never have nice things.

The Broadway Revival, having different choreography and staging for most of the Jellicle Ball is interesting in the way the Broadway Revival is usually interesting (kind of frustrating tbh). In the new choreography, everything from Bomba’s solo through the Mating Dance is basically one scene. Some queens dance, even more queens join them, a bunch of toms show up and pair up with them, the Boys Ballet and Whirlygigs are replaced with a romantic dance, everyone takes a hit of moonlight and things start to resemble other productions a bit more from there.

Because the pairs pair up quickly and stay together for a long time, it’s easy to see all of them. Only most of the cast is paired up, but I can identify, Tugger/Bomba, Munk/Demeter, Alonzo/Cassandra, Skimble/Jenny, Plato/Victoria, Coricopat/Tantomile (why do the siblings always stay together for the horny scenes?), Mungojerrie/Rumpleteazer (they’re probably not siblings in this version, so they get a pass), Pouncival/Electra, and Carbucketty/Sillabub.

Jellylorum, Tumblebrutus, and Mistoffelees are absent. They’re offstage until the Mating Dance properly starts. I have no idea where Tumblebrutus went, but this isn’t about him. Tugger crawls past Misto and they almost interact before Tugger leaves with Bomba. Jellylorum pairs up with Misto, presumably because neither one could find an actually date.

Now, the actress who played Jellylorum in this production has said in interviews that she played Jellylorum as the same age as Tugger. (The actors are besties irl so they made their characters besties too). So, this isn’t quite as weird as if feels when you first read it. Everyone’s the same age in this show, except for the kittens. Electra, Sillabub, and Pouncival were played as literal children in every scene but this one, because no one can escape the cat orgy (except Tumblebrutus, for some reason). But, unlike in 1998, which featured a lot of crack pairings during this scene (Tugger/Jenny, anyone?), pretty much every pairing in the 2016 orgy is the most obvious pairing possible. Anyone who didn’t have an obvious opposite gender counterpart was given one, except for Misto, Jelly, and Tumble. They could’ve brought back Peter (renamed Asparagus) from the opening to be Jelly’s obvious pairing, and then just had Tumble nap on Misto’s feet like 2013 Carbucketty, but they didn’t.

The result is that they created a bunch of comphet pairings but simply couldn’t do so for Misto. All his usual comphet pairing were taken. Cassandra’s with Alonzo and Victoria’s with Plato. Knowing that Tyler Hanes and Ricky Ubeda both shipped Tuggoffelees, they probably didn’t want to do the comphet thing either. Up until this point, this production had actually downplayed Tugger/Bomba, compared to other versions and added Tugger/Misto moments. I think, if it’d been allowed, Tugger and Misto would’ve been paired up there. Bomba can be like 1998, not having her usual partner and just going with whoever’s not paired up, which would be Tumblebrutus this time. Peter could be there for Jelly. Everyone’s happy!

But seriously, Gay Misto Mating Dance Scene when? Somebody get on that. People already find the horniness in Cats to be weird and adding gay horniness won’t make much of a difference.

RINA, PORTWELL AND JACK×GINA

Suppose the writers want me to ship Portwell till Rina endgame. Nope.

But I have something else in mind.

From an unbiased POV, I just see two very good looking BFFs. If you look at Rini, Rina, Redlyn, Seblos, Kourt x Howie, they all have romantic chemistry.😍🔥

EJ acknowledges how amazing Gina is and puts her 1st. Healthy friendship is what I see. And my Gina being so loved by another Caswell. 💜

And no, it's not just because of their actors' ages. They are professionals. Even Delena, the actors were 10 years apart. But their on screen chemistry was very romantic. Even Stelena. So, this isn't about age. They just don't emanate romantic fire.

The most I can see is a sophmore finding a senior who is attractive (because EJ is smoking hot) and feeling a little sidelined and lonely. And a senior seeing a sophmore as an underrated dazzling star with a heart of gold.💛

If any thing, it's to show that someone SEES Gina. She probably feels so out of place and hurt by Ricky. It's not about receiving validation from a man, but it's to let Gina know there are others who get her. EJ needs to show what it's like to be treated well and let Gina raise her standards when it comes to being loved. He needs to get rid of her confusion whether or not she's wanted and to stop her 'disappearing Gina act'.

Most of all, Ricky needs to see how well EJ treats Gina and how special she is. So in the future, he will treat her well as a boyfriend once this boy sorts out his own issues. EJ needs to be that constant best friend to Gina, not a sibling but not more than friends either. Just playful besties who make jokes and flirts a little to uplift each other. 🤗😎

No romantic energy here. Just Team Wonderstudy besties. 😌

If Gina is going to have a love interest, it would be Jack.

I'm undoubtedly Muffy stan, but Buffy and Jonah had a little chemistry. I think it would definetely work. Jack is described as a smooth talking, charming flirt. And who else is single at the East High for him to have a thing with? Gina!

Here is a gif I made. Here they are just best buds on Andi Mack but I can see them playing romantic characters in HSMTMTS. 😍

He's also described as having a 'wanderlust'. Perhaps it's him Gina will meet at the airport because he seems to travel a lot. A stranger who changes her mind and eventually becomes a forbidden romance once she gets to know he's from North High. Jealous Ricky incoming! Last episode also mentions Ricky re-evaluating a party crasher.🤔

Why would Gina bring a North High student to an East high party? Maybe because he got her to stay!

Season three can dive into whether Gina wants to switch schools after Jack's persuasion because she seems so impressed with their dance studio right now. Time for Ricky to start pining, competing and hating on Jack for no reason.

And Jack not being happy that Gina and Ricky are playing romantic interests on stage, and then asks her to play the lead with him in his school. Ricky taking every opportunity to serenade Gina under the pretense of his character while Jack also does the same on his guitar. Gonna be so funny. 😂

Here's a preview! Jack, someone who is in par with Ricky, serenading Gina. Oh boy!😅

Ricky meanwhile....

"He's a little pitchy. And completely off beat. I can do it so much better. Jack, nope. More like Jack-ASS!" 😒

Everyone noticing that Ricky hates Jack not because he's from North High (or plotting to destroy them), but because Ricky likes Gina. A lot. And him finally admitting that.

Ricky trying to get Gina back in his arms with the whole, "I wouldn't quit on us even if you moved away." "Even if everything changes, my feelings for you will never change." "I'm not scared of change as much as I'm scared of losing you." "Please stay, and I promise to never quit on us again."

And Gina, who's heart was and is still with Ricky, stays for love. And season three ends with them kissing on stage, playing each other's love interests and being real life lovers too.

Season four will show their relationship. Fluff and angst. It's ups and downs. Them truly falling for each other. And them confessing their love for each other.

Season five will have them getting over their honey moon phase and having quarrels. And life getting in the way. Breaking up momentarily. Season 5b will be about them hurting badly without each other and having minor slip ups and kissing each other despite being broken up.

Season six will show them getting back together with the incoming RAIN KISS!!! The season will end with this.

Ricky- I have a proposal to run past you

Gina- Oh no (laughing) Is Nini okay?

Ricky- Since we are dating and I went behind your back but for a good reason. Would you be flattered?

Gina- Yes Ricky, I'd be flattered.

Then Ricky takes her to a room full of flowers and sings her a love song, and gets down on one knee and proposes to her full on Fifty Shades style. She says yes but they'll officially marry only when they are ready and older. But till then, she becomes his fiance. Each other's homes.

Eventually move in together in Ricky's apartment. Though I don't think we'll get any spicy Rina scenes considering this is PG Disney.

The End. (Unless they move to freeform which I doubt).

💍❤

DIVES IN HERE SO FAST FOR MADCOM MATCHUPZS

u shouldn't have now i gotta psychoanalyze you for everyone to see ://// /j

u gte a two for one deal bc ur epic swag and also a bestie <3333

[ no tws necessary ]

I match you w/ Deimos platonically ;

-I feel like you two would have sibling / cousins kinda dynamic. you both cause problems on purpose and bully eachother (jokingly) while doing it. I feel like there would b a lot of inside jokes between you two , you'll say some little word / phrase and he'll just double over in laughter while the others stare at you two in confusion

-BUT on a diff note i do think ur energy matches his rlly well, u can be pretty upbeat and lively but you can also be pretty chill which fits him, sometimes he wants to go do something dangerous and dumb with you and other times he just wants to sit and ramble with you endlessly about whatever seems to come to mind. 10/10 you both have Those kind of semi-deep conversations where you both just kinda bare parts of ur souls to each other n shit, its hard to describe but he always leaves feeling a little bit lighter / less shallow (if that makes sense)

-i hc him as actually being a pretty good listener so if you ever needed to talk / go off abt something he's able to just sit and nod along with you. offers his own little in puts here and there based off how ur kinda talkin abt it (ex. if you seem a little more lost / frantic he tries to offer advice but if ur more pissed off he gives little 'what a dick / shit, really?' comments here and there)

-idk he just likes hanging out w/ you, he's not great with telling you he appreciates you and he's not super sappy w/ his friends so he does it in other ways (usually going 'hey this made me think of you' or picking up things you wanted for you every now and then)

i match u w/ hank romantically ;

(-PROMMY IM NOT JUST SAYING THIS BC U LIKE HIM IM BEING /SRS ,,, )

-I feel like at first he might've been pretty neutral abt you, ur just kinda. there. but he starts warming up to you over time and gets really comfortable w/ you in ways he doesn't even notice until someone else points it out

-once again i feel like ur energy goes pretty well with his, he's not as lively as you but having someone like you in that sense w/ him does make him kinda . perk up a little if that makes sense?? on his own he tends to get frustrated and tired pretty easily, it only takes a few things going wrong for him to start getting snippy and pissed so your more optimistic / light approach to things kinda slows that down, like. something abt ur ability to just kinda roll w/ things as they come makes him feel a lot calmer in a weird way

-also you come across as a helpful person 2 me so i feel like he really appreciates any of that. whether its you helping him bring stuff in after a raid or bandaging some wound of his he cant reach / do himself or you cheering san or dei up he just kinda. stares a little. he finds himself thinking abt it a lot more than he normally would with others. (he doesn't say thanks very often but you can notice it in the quiet nod or murmur he gives you after you help him out)

-he's not a fan of talking about his problems (it makes him feel vulnerable and antsy so he prefers to keep it bottled up :[ ) but he tends to go to you if he's ever in a state where he just needs to chill out a little. usually doesn't speak very much but he'll just kinda. walk over and sit down next to you and watch whatever it is you're doing. you can usually tell because he'll only give little nods and grunts to any questions you give (i hc him as having moments where he doesn't have the energy to really talk) but he really enjoys just listening to you ramble or talk to him to get his mind off things

-also i refuse to believe you're THAT tall so he gives you his clothes (mainly his jacket) a lot, he just likes seeing them on you :) tends to kinda lean down and give you a kiss on the forehead / temple whenever he notices you're wearing them

-tldr he feels really comfortable and safe around you and he finds himself enjoying your prescence a lot more than he does w/ most people

-also i hope you like weird kind of vaguely threatening confessions bc he doesn't know how to properly convey his positive feelings very well. u know how i said something abt him holding flowers way too tightly (mostly bc he's nervous / lost on it) whenever he gifts em to you in some other post??? yeah he does that to you while confessing lmao

#DO I TAG THESE AS X READER?????????????????#X JO?? help girl im lost #(bangss my fist on the windows of infinite ikea)#matchups #madcom matchups #madness combat matchups #I GUESS?? look man idk .#rot writes

Brutas! La Policia!

I've read a few analysis on this episode before so while watching it again I was mindful to pay attention to certain details, for example; Armando's facial movements and the way he spoke while also paying attention to Marcela's behavior throughout the episodes that take place for that night (I think there's two or three.)

Now to start this off Armando is already at the drag party. He calls Marcela up and explains he'll be at the apartment. Now Marcela's reaction reminded me a lot of how abusers behave in public. They smile, they laugh, they're kind, loving, understanding, and most of all the perfect S.O so when you complain about it absolutely no one believes you because "they're so perfect" she often giggles when conversing with him, instead of yelling like she normally would she lets things slide.

Now up to this point of the series we've seen a pretty...dysfunctional relationship but they have their ups more than their downs. We know Armando is a cheating whore and that Marcela is aware of this but lets it slide even though she yells at him all the time. However Marcela is often seen more loving towards Armando, the only time they truly have heated arguments that aren't related to Armando cheating, they're related towards Betty and her role in the company and his life. See up to this point(Before Marcela came back from New York) we as viewers have seen Armando be annoyed at his fiancé but she was still his number one girl, meaning that yeah he could have his side pieces but at the end of the day (As he said himself) she was the woman he wanted to be with, was it for the sake of his parents or just for the company, whatever it may be he wanted to be with her. By little things like asking Betty to stay in meetings, to asking her to sit beside him during meetings Marcela's behavior begins to change. I noticed that when she came back from NY and entered his office, he went and stood next to Betty and looked at her and then Marcela, smiled and commented on her new look (Something that I find interesting and I'll comment on that when I get to that ep) he then went and kissed her, now I know it could have been interpreted that he was feeling guilty over the conversation he was having with Mario and Betty (the company getting seized by Terra Moda) which could be true but I find it interesting that in that moment they didn't show him staring at Mario and then Betty or vise versa but instead he stood next to Betty and glanced at her for a moment.

Why do I bring this up when it happened days before the Drag Party? Because it speaks on the shift that they begin to have in their relationship. Often we see Armando as the main instigator and I won't sit here and justify that man's actions. He was a serial cheater, a whore if you will, and had no regards for anyone's feelings, even his own, though his egoism made him think so highly of himself, showed that he was truly an insecure person(I could write down a post dedicated entirety of this character personality because the writing, the directing, and the acting added so much dimension to a character I'd otherwise find repulsive with no grain of redemption.) However; when you look at this dysfunctional and complex romantic relationship between Marcela and Armando you begin to see why the relationship is so terrible and it isn't soley based on his cheating.

Again, Marcela is playing this act of being an understanding and easy going girlfriend in front of Patricia Fernandez, the model, she lets Armando's erratic behavior slide and even behaves when he hangs up on her, instead of calling him multiple times and yelling at him. When her bestie Patty tries to instigate her, her sister Beatriz tries to calm her by saying 'Maybe something did happen and we're not leaving this apartment 'til he shows up' but this entire time we see a compose and calm Marcela, something we all know is not like her. Now, she had spoken to Armando before that scene, where she told him she could go get him and for a brief moment Armando agrees, seeming a bit reluctant at first but he agrees to receive her help, then Daniel and Beatriz show up and he finds out and decided he no longer wants her help.

Who does he call?

Betty.

Betty agrees to go get him on his terms, whereas Marcela said she was taking her siblings with her, or otherwise they'd stay in his apartment(he didn't want them there in the first place). Even when they find him and Betty freaks out, she doesn't judge him. Instead she tells him that she understands not to ask questions and that his secret was safe with her, even though she doesn't get what's going on. Had Marcela reacted the same way?

I want to mention this now, before when Armando had to go to the gay bar to apologize to Hugo he said he felt like he had lost a part of himself, he felt vulnerable (Something we know that dude doesn't ever do) and Marcela's go to, instead of listening to him or truly paying attention to him was simply saying she was going to remind him that he was a man and bam seggsy time.

Now back to this episode, Betty goes to pick him up, he explains what happened, Betty asked one question and once he answered her back the conversation regarding that is let go of. They then go to Eco Moda, cops show up, Betty laughs once the cops leave and Armando, after his hellish night, finally laughs at the situation. In a night he himself calls hell, Betty helps bring some sort of comfort and brightness to it.

Later at her house Armando hears Don Hermes express himself regarding the way he treats Betty(Now lets scratch the tape here and rewind just a few scenes before; Armando seemed annoyed at being in Betty's home, once she left the room we see him roll his eyes once he sees where he is, which shows just how stuck up that foo' is and he could catch these hands.) and cut to the scene of Armando leaving her house in Don Hermes's clothes and he asks her if he was truly awful. Now the interesting part of this is that first he asked if he mistreats her, to which she answers back no, he looks truly sadden and disturbed with the idea when asking that that he could be mistreating her. He then mentions that her dad has a bad impression of the company, then he proceeds to say that he had a bad impression of him, indicating that he cares about his image and the way her dad thinks of him. Betty tells him that he doesn't need to worry and that her dad won't beat him up, to ignore him and he then asks her "Is it really that awful to work for us? Is it a nightmare to work for me?" once more showing us, unlike before, that he isn't soley preoccupied with the company, but he actually cares about what Betty thinks of him and the way he treats her as he later says that he'll work on yelling less at her. This entire time Betty is a trooper, as always, she listens to him, tries to reassure him, doesn't judge, and helps him deal with what ever it is he's dealing with.

This leads to Armando showing up to the apartment, Marcela goes to greet him and then takes notice to what he's wearing and instantly a judge-y look falls upon her face.

You can tell by his body language that he feels embarrassed, warned out and frustrated but Marcela goes to the room instead of paying attention to his body language and his reaction she goes to question him. To add to this she is instantly irritated at him and in the room goes to tell him "Do you have any idea how much embarrassment you've made me go through? in front of everyone?" tell me that doesn't sound abusive, I'll wait.

She then goes to name everyone in the apartment and that he knew exactly who was there, how could he be so selfish as to go to his own apartment, dressed in clothes he borrowed from his assistant's dad because he had to go settle a bet he made so Hugo wouldn't quite the company, therefore hurt the company they all love? How dare he do that to her? Marcela goes to tell him "You better think of something good to tell me!" and his facial expression the entire time is dead. He looks done but when he speaks to her, as he has his back to her, his voice sounds kind, though his facial expression looks dead. He replied "Nothing my love... I dressed up in drag" she doesn't believe him and he tells her the whole truth. He even admits that his biggest mistake that night was not being honest with her from the get go and she goes to sniff him, then shoves him away from her.

This is where Marcela shows her true colors. In the eyes of the public she is the poor girlfriend who forgives her cheating boyfriend who is always yelling but behind close doors with just Armando she is emotionally abusive to him.

People often justify her behavior because Armando is a cheater, there fore hey no harm no foul. However no matter what his actions are she is emotionally abusive towards him. In this instance the problem wasn't him cheating or running off. He was truthful to her about his whereabouts and took responsibility for his mistakes but Marcela's behavior is still wrong. She makes his embarrassment about her, daring to insinuate that he's selfish in that instant for causing her to look bad in front of her guest. Not once thinking about how he could have felt, she's supposed to be the one that is in love in the relationship. She's supposed to be the one that picks up on the cues and cares about him because he's supposed to be the jerk who is selfish at all times and disregards her and thinks of her as just an object to screw at night, right?

Remember how I mentioned the night Armando went to the gay bar?

In this breakdown of this scene I want you to remember that incident.

Marcela, in a loving voice asks him "I don't understand why you couldn't tell me something so dumb?" she is using emotional manipulation here because in the bedroom her tone hadn't been that. It had been angry. What she truly wants is for Armando to confess some wrong doing, something to give her an excuse to act out. However Armando is honest with her once more and tells her that to him that wasn't dumb but had been an entreat(in Spanish the word used "Suplicio" interprets that it had been a deep inner begging for it to end, osea, it had been suffering.) Marcela seems truly concentrated and caring to what he is saying. She does after all care for him. He is being communicative and opening his feelings up to her, something he didn't do with Betty and this is where once again Marcela makes it about herself.

I'm not saying she didn't have a right to but if your S.O is opening up their feelings about something that just happened to them and how deeply it affected them, going as far as to say "you have to understand me" and then you say "and you had to go to someone else?" this turns to focus away from the person who is being vulnerable and turns it towards you, what would you call that? Trying to find fault in someone's feelings and invalidating them by dismissing them and making their reaction a personal attack against you and your relationship is abusive one way or another. She wasn't looking to comfort him, she wasn't looking to show she was truly the one he could count on. She was trying to justify her actions, trying to justify that she has a right to behave and react the way she does because he lied and didn't call her so she could aid him. His body language then proceeds to shift from being the one that was being vulnerable to then having to defend himself.

She warns really, though it reads as she is asking him, to not involve Betty in his personal life. That Betty is only supposed to be part of the company's time. He sits standoff-ish, a nervous tick of him that I've noticed is that he often bites his thumb nail when feeling nervous(duh) he then stands up and stares at her for a brief second before letting out a sigh and hugging her and agreeing.

Have you ever had a conversation with someone that just makes you feel so emotionally frustrated that instead of talking it out you just sigh and agree with them? You set aside your own experience and emotions because you're just tired of having to defend your feelings? So you bend their way in hopes it ends the discussion?

Yeah Armando feels that deeply.

This isn't the last of these scenes. Often their dynamic of a dysfunctional relationship, toxic relationship if you will, is seen more focused when Armando is yelling at her or cheating on her. The subtle ways Marcela is abusive is often seen as a "Poor Morch she is just trying to be in his life" you don't try and be in someone's life by making it all about you, invalidating their experiences, not taking no when they say they're not in the mood(often even before Betty and him got involved when he'd say no to her she'd kiss him and wouldn't stop until he finally gave in.) and then threatening that you'll destroy them if they leave you.

Once again the acting, the directing, and the writing itself tell us a very hard telling truth. In relationships, often when they are toxic on both ends, it isn't always one person who is the instigator. Often they shift. One moment someone is being reactive to the abuse, the next the other is being abusive. However this sets the domino effect we later see with Armando and Marcela always at each other's throats, especially the day of the new collection launch, when Armando finds out about Betty's platonic love.

You can compare both of these relationships and their S.O. While in one the S.O is always making it all about themselves, the other is allowing the other to be the main focus(Betty deserved better than the beginning steps of her romance with Armando(once again I can go off on this character and their behavior in great detail lol)). Armando was never the main focus or really any focus of his relationship with Marcela. It was always about her and his parents. While with Betty, even in this episode, we see them both dealing with it. In the company and now for the first time in a setting outside of the company, Armando isn't facing something on his own or going through the motions of something for the sake of everyone but he is very much present.

I really don't know if any of this makes any sense. I think it plays out the dynamic of the relationship and what's to come of it very well. It also highlights Marcela's toxic behavior and abuse as well and why Armando seemed so unhappy by the point that he accepted to romance Betty.

To add to this; This is all just days or weeks apart from the day the plan to make Betty fall in love with him to secure the company is created. The change between Marcela and Armando has been slow but it comes to an exploding halt by then.

Marcela's behavior is abusive. You cannot look at it any other way but that. She is possessive, jealous, emotionally manipulative, sexually manipulative, and over all views Armando as an object that belongs to her. When he bends her way her love is unconditional and she's happy. The correct term is that she is in the honeymoon stages. If your S.O is so afraid of making any mistake due to your reaction; IT'S ABUSE. You're an abusive person. She isn't physically abusive or sexually abusive towards him but she is verbally and emotionally abusive towards him.

We often see him have a tone that is kind and loving while his entire body and facial expression shows the contrary. It shows a man afraid to speak his mind.

Yes he yells at her, he cheats on her, and he isn't the greatest boyfriend. He tells her that he'll do her the favor of marrying her, that he'll end their relationship if she tells his parents the true state of the company. He manipulates her, he is a gran manipulator. He isn't the best but what makes him different from Marcela? That he takes accountability for it. He feels an immense guilt for lying to her and cheating, not only sexually on her with Betty, but emotionally and mentally. He carries that load while Marcela not once has ever show guilt, remorse, or accountability for her abuse.

While one shows to have some form of redemption the other still believes and tries to justify their behavior. Often she is looking for things to be upset about regarding Armando. As if she just needs one small reason to throw every mistake in his face, to yell, to manipulate, and to be over-all a possessive, controlling, abusive girlfriend.

Now this doesn't mean Armando is innocent. There is a reason why their relationship is toxic because they're both abusive towards each other but I noticed that often times, when the subject isn't infidelities', Armando's abusive tendencies come from a reaction rather than the instigator. He is an instigator at times(he cheats for god's sake) but Armando's abuse is manipulation and gas lighting, which are bad too. Those are the moments he is the instigator, when he is being manipulative, gaslighting, or cheating, the rest are reactionary abusive tendencies towards Marcela, who feeds the cycle of toxicity because due to Armando's cheating and gaslighting she's a possessive control freak and the cycle feeds itself. They are both bad people, they are both at fault of the dysfunction in their relationship and they are both abusive towards each other. I think it's important to note why it is that Armando even began to have feelings for Betty as he himself said that their relationship was harmonic whereas what he had with Marcela was anything but that.

Now I'm not saying Armando is the victime here. He is both the victimizer and the victime as well as Marcela.

Once I collect my thoughts to better express and breakdown scenes where Armando is the instigator in the abuse in his relationship with Marcela I'll make a post for it and I'll definitely make one about his abuse in his relationship with Betty.

But let me just say this, I don't hate Marcela. I actually like her, outside of her relationship with Armando and how vile and abusive she has been towards Betty from the get go, she shows to care about her employee's her siblings, and is companionate towards others but I've seen one too many people always act like she was only a victim and never did any wrong. Her character is meant to be realistic which means she is no saint and neither are any of the characters in this novela.

'Til next time.
