- gojo satoru x reader
valentine's is around the corner and word has it that you're going on a date with geto...? no way! gojo is going to make sure that you're saying no! ever wonder how gojo finally gets you to become his? be prepared for a confession of a lifetime!
genre/warnings. crack, semi-failed love confession (it's gojo, what do you expect?), poor geto, and of course, fluff !!
notes. i genuinely love writing this :') loser gojo has always have a soft spot in my heart *sighs* i'd recommend listening to beautiful & because of you - beast (highlight) for this !!
a part of gojo's love entries and valentine's special !
Satoru doesn't really pay attention to holidays. To him, it's all the same—he can turn everyday into a holiday if he wanted to.
However, Valentine's Day is an exception. He knows it and is somewhat excited even. Why, you ask? Because this is the moment he has chosen. He's going to make you his on that very day.
He had everything planned out to perfection: skylit rooftop, bouquet of roses, eloquent speech (at least, he thought so). He was going to charm the pants out of you and it'd be a smooth-sailing event, he was sure of it!
At least until he heard that life-shattering gossip—
"I saw Geto-san asking her out for the 14th just now!"
"What?" he snapped his head in Haibara's direction, who was eagerly sharing with him and the others what he had allegedly heard, his eyes practically sparkling with excitement.
"Ehh, not bad," Shoko mused with a hint of amusement, casting a curious look his way. It was obvious she was enjoying this.
Nanami let out a thoughtful hum. "That's quite a surprise. I didn't think they'll go that fast."
"But how?!" Satoru suddenly exploded, grabbing Haibara by the collar. "How did that slimy bangs go from saying nothing to asking her out?!"
"O-oh Gojo-san! Don't squish me, please!"
And from then onwards, his focus was set: preventing you from falling into Suguru's grimy hands. Absolutely no way! He was so close already. He was on the cusp of winning your heart, and he knew it!
Now, you laughed at his jokes, you didn't ignore him as much, and you even asked him if he was okay after his recent mission! That was huge progress, even Satoru knew as much. And no, even if it was Suguru, he refused to hand you over to him.
On the 14th, you were going to be his... even if it cost him everything!
Gojo Satoru is annoying. You supposed you knew that already, but over these past few days, his ability to get on your nerves somehow had ascended to a wholly new level.
"I'm telling you, you should go with me! I'm going to take you somewhere amazing!" he practically demanded right up in your space, prompting you to let out a long-drawn sigh.
By all means, his attempts to woo you were all lame. He didn't know the first thing about being humble, and logically, you should have been more inclined to push him away.
‘Should’ being the operative word, because, somehow, over the past few weeks, you've started to see his antics as not just bearable but even endearing in a way. No one had ever pursued you with such relentless zeal before him, and it became increasingly difficult to overlook the way your heart fluttered in response to his (occasionally dubious) attempts to win you over.
So, right now, it really wasn't because you were playing hard to get. "Gojo, I've told you already. I can't on that day, I've already got plans," you sighed, exasperated.
He shot you a glance, his expression shifting into a brazenly raised eyebrow. "With Suguru?"
"How do you—"
"Tell him no," Satoru pressed, scowling. "Tell him I asked you first."
"In fact, he asked first—"
“Just say no!”
“No!”
"You're seriously going on a date with him?" he questioned, almost in disbelief. "And what, you're going to confess to him too?"
His tone didn't sit well with you, causing your irritation to rise. You frowned and retorted boldly, "And if I do? It's not like you can do anything about it anyway."
Wait, that actually hurts. Satoru was now irked too. Hadn't he shown enough for you to understand just how much of a big deal it was for him? Didn't you know he actually likes you so much that it made him toss and turn on some nights?
(No, you didn't really know. He just made himself look stupid most of the time. You were not that impressed.)
"As a matter of fact, I can," he began, expression turning into a slight sneer. "I can and I will if you still insist on going with him."
"Wha?"
"I'm going to crash your party so hard, you'll wish you hadn't gone behind my back. The audacity he has, trying to steal my girl!"
"You sound like a creep," you couldn't help blurting out, wide-eyed. "And I'm not your girl—"
"You—are quite heartless." His gaze on you behind that glasses hardened, and you were suddenly taken aback by how upset he looked. "I'm giving you my all—I think about you all day and night I think it's actually making me crazy!"
You stared at him, genuinely dumbfounded this time, realizing that somehow or another now, he was pouring his emotions out.
"Nothing I say will make sense to you, but whatever—" he exhaled sharply in frustration. "It's always you—in my mind. Compared to anyone else now, you're the prettiest. And if you were to ask me to pull a Blue on Ichiji right now, I'd probably do it! You see now—what you have done to me?"
"Ichiji? Gojo—!"
"You might think I did all of this for your attention, and yes, you’re right! That's how much you've messed with my head!"
. . .
Oh, now he had really gone and done it, hadn't he? He had laid it all bare, every last bit of it—the chaotic heap stacking up as his botched confession. And there were no roses, no rooftop, and none of the grandeur he had envisioned. This was so not how he wanted it to go at all.
Satoru grimaced, suddenly regretting this turn of events. He had seen it coming already—you calling him a total weirdo and then leaving him in the dust. Just the thought was enough to make his heart squeeze. Wanting to escape before it became a reality, he abruptly turned on his heel and walked away from you.
He barely made it a few steps away before he felt a firm tug on his arm.
"Wait! Gojo!"
You grabbed his arm tightly, forcing him to turn towards you. Satoru stubbornly refused to meet your gaze, his lips pressed into a massive pout. Yet, beyond that display of defiance, you could discern a hint of heartbreak splashed across his face, and it made your stomach churn.
Always trying to make you look at him. Always trying to get you to smile through his lame jokes. Making himself stupid on purpose. Frustrated when his feelings went unnoticed… All Gojo Satoru did thus far finally added up.
So it's true... he likes me this much...?
In that moment, warmth flooded through you. This idiot. Everyone said he was no good, but your heart couldn't help but leap, and a flurry of butterflies seemed to dance in your stomach.
In this instant, everything seemed to fall into place. Any doubt you might have melted away, leaving only a sense of certainty about your feelings. Everything just feels absolutely right.
"I'm not going on a date with Geto, you know."
"Huh?" Upon hearing that, he swiveled to face you, his gaze intensively searching your face for further explanation.
With a huff, you elaborated, "It's for my Grade One promotion mission. Geto-san asked to join me for it."
"But why? He doesn't need to—"
"He wants to tag along to absorb more cursed spirits, you see..."
"Oh, amassing new little friends, I see," Satoru quipped, face scrunching up distastefully.
His mood seems better now, you noted. You exhaled, your heart suddenly felt like it was pounding louder. "So, you've got the wrong idea. It sucks but my Valentine's day is going to be spent on a mission."
A beat passed by before he finally spoke again, still sheepish and avoiding eye contact. "I'm coming with you too, for that... mission or whatever."
You pressed your lips together, trying to ignore the warmth spreading across your face. "And?"
"And... huh?"
"That's all? Nothing else you want to add?"
And suddenly his eyes sparkled back to life. Beyond those ridiculous round glasses, his bright, yet steadfast eyes met yours with such vibrant shine it made your chest thump so hard and face flush with matching intensity.
Silly, silly boy... liking me so much that he turns stupid.
"Actually, I've got plenty more to say!"
With an indignant snort, you released his arm. "Well, I'm waiting. Because what you just said before has to be the most underwhelming confession I've ever heard."
"Wha? Hey! That wasn't my confession! Just you wait, I'll do it over, and this time, I'll make you swoon so hard you'll forget how Suguru's face looks like!"
And on the night of February 14, he truly surpassed himself once again in making a terrible confession, and yet it still signified the day you truly became his—the beginning of your life together, which along the way, would be filled with more shenanigans, endless laughter and of course, love.
Epilogue
"Haibara, I really thought you're the most sensible here! I can't believe you!"
Suguru massaged his temples with utter grievance. So this was the cause of his headache and constant death stares Satoru gave him these past few days—the three people gathering in front of him!
"I've told you already, Nanami—Gojo is really going through with it," Shoko cackled with utter satisfaction. "Now, pay up."
"Ieiri-san... sigh— from now on, I'm not participating in your bets anymore."
Haibara, who went with Shoko's suggestion to incite this, sheepishly laughed. "Ehe, Geto-san, all that ends well is well though, no?"
"Satoru was really about to skin me alive! Ugh, and you almost ruined my date too..."
"Eh? Date?" All three sets of eyes suddenly fixed on him in utter astonishment. "Who?"
-> continue to 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 (with geto suguru—soon!)

Your work is AMAZING! I hope you're proud of yourself! 💕
I was wondering if you could write how the brothers would react to finding out you're insecure about your body/ looks? I feel like Lucifer and Beel would be so so sweet to MC 🥰
Have a wonderful rest of your day and stay safe!
Thank you!!! 🥺 Sorry for the wait friend, I nervously kept rewriting this for a while 😆♡
MC Feeling Insecure (Obey Me!)
"The truth is...I've always been insecure about my body and how I look." You say, confiding in your favorite demon one day.
»Characters: Demon Bros
»Tags: GN Reader, Fluff/Some Humor, Bulleted Style, Levi being down bad in his weird sweet way, Satan with the rizz™️
»Notes: I use beautiful+gorgeous+darling so if that bothers you then you should probably skip this!
Lucifer:
"You like to give me headaches." (Affectionate)
He just thought you knew how beautiful you are, he was surprised
The avatar of pride was going to teach you a lesson, it's what he does best after all
"We'll work through it together. I'll show you what I love about you."
And show you he did; he kissed every part of you that he loved- which was everything
He would tell you how great you looked, even in front of others
He took pride in that; it comes in many forms you see
He gave you daily affirmations and was patient with you on your bad days
One day he held your face gently and made you look at him: "I've been around for centuries and have had the opportunity to see all the realms...and I'd never met someone as beautiful as you." ♡♡♡
Mammon:
"Huh?"
He got real quiet...he was mildly annoyed
Actually, he started getting a little mad
How could you not see how perfect you are!?
Fine! Tch!
He took both your hands and looked at you intensely, knowing his face was burning
"Listen here-!"
"YoureTheMostBeautifulBeingInAllTheRealms!"
"You'rePerfection! ICantKeepMyEyesOffYou!"
Although his face was burning, he hoped in his heart that you understood how beautiful you are, it hurt him to think you thought otherwise
From then on he made an effort everyday (he hoped it helped) to tell you something he liked about you in his own Mammon way
Usually via text bc in person was too much for the tsundere sometimes
(1) New text from Mammon: Look all I'm sayin' is I know beautiful treasure when I see it, got it?
Levi:
"Ehh!?!"
He was not having it!
He thinks you're the most perfect thing ever!
The most precious thing to have ever graced his disgustingly bleak life!
He felt a little bad at his outburst, he didn't mean to disregard your feelings
He knows a thing or two about insecurities after all
But he just cannot have you thinking that way and wanted to help you if he can!
The demon otaku pulled out a ready made powerpoint on why you're the absolutely perfect 3D partner
"L-look... all in all...you're beautiful! And I'll do a-anything I can to help you see that!"
He made it a point to worship you every day no matter how nervous he was
Yes he started a fan club, yes everyone else joined
Even Henry and Cerberus were a part of it
Satan:
"Hm. To think, I didn't expect someone as gorgeous as you would actually give me the time of day."
Tbh he also understands insecurities with one's self
He didn't know you also suffered through the same; and he wasn't going to let you go through it alone
"For what it's worth, I think you're absolute perfection." He said placing a kiss on your forehead
Brought out some self help books and the two of you went through them together
He would leave you daily positive handwritten notes
That didn't stop him from telling you how gorgeous you are in person though
Asmo:
"What!? I think you're absolutely gorgeous...Do you want to talk more about it?"
He was familiar with insecurities too, unbeknownst to...nearly everyone, so he sure as hell wasn't going to let you go through this alone!
He lent an ear and reassured you that you were so perfect and that you'll see it one day like so many others do
"Do you know how many demons and monsters we have to chase off everyday!?" "What!?" "Nevermind! But darling you are downright gorgeous down to your soul!"
Your personal hype man
Started hyping you up every morning before RAD...eventually everyone started joining in, even Lucifer
Beel:
"You're perfect the way you are?"
This big guy was confused, he didn't mean to sound rude or anything to your feelings
He just wasn't prepared for your confession
He thought you were divine; if he didn't know any better he'd think you were from the celestial realm
No matter-- he was going to help you see your beauty one way or another
He hugged you tightly, "Thank you for trusting me"
He held your hand as the two of you talked and he tried to reassure you the best he could
He covered you in kisses and, if you were okay with it, gave extra attention to the parts you hated
"You're delicious in so many ways. You're really beautiful."
Looked up ways to make you feel better and made you a jar with little daily affirmation notes ♡
Like everyone else, also told you personally everyday how beautiful you are
Belphie:
"...That's dumb."
Okay, even he thought that came out a little harsher than intended...leave it to him to be blunt
"I mean, I literally dream about you and when I'm awake you're better than any dream. You're beautiful."
He hugged you in hopes of making you feel better
"Look I'm not good at these things but I'll remind you everyday how amazingly gorgeous you are, alright?"
If you happen to nap/sleep together, he will whisper sweet stuff into your ear
"I'll keep saying these things until you believe it. And continue to, even after you realize it yourself."

how do you imagine Edgeworth and Phoenix parenting Trucy?
Thing is... I usually don't imagine them parenting anyone really... I mostly focus on humor and tension between the two. Closest thing would probably be Maya and Pearl but I see them more as surrogate family members akin to siblings and nieces or some third option. I guess you could say it would be two guys and their dog? As far as I am concerned two men and a dog are a family.
Reason for that being is that Trucy didn't "grasp" me as much character wise so it's a bit difficult to flesh and figure her out...aaand I'm not actually that fond of Apollo Justice (the game that is), atleast narrative wise, I just really really prefer the goofier tone of the OG trilogy and its characters. That is to say there are characters i legitimately enjoy in AJ, Klavier is flamboyant and fun, Ema Skye is wonderfully re-imagined as grumpy and a little bitter (which brings more personality to her than she had in Ashes), Kristoph is a wonderfully unhinged Regina George-esque prissbitch and Apollo is a high strung little chicken nugget. Not really a fan of the disbarment either, and while "Beanix" is an interesting idea and I certainly understand why people enjoy him it's just ehh.... it sorta makes sense for his personality to change but I personally didn't like that it changed that much. Then again I generally don't like change and am very stubborn about certain things. This to say Anon I'd hate to see you sad and empty handed so i give you this:
My best guess would be that Wright would be good at consoling, telling stories, being creative and imaginative and such, also surprisingly, house cleaning. Edgeworth would be good with homework, general organizing of things such as paperwork, finanical organizing maybe? I think he would also give great advice and nuggets of wisdom. As far as I am concerned they can both cook, just different things.
Anon and future anons please don't let my opinions discourage you from asking further questions or drawings connected to AJ. There are things I do like about it, I love having conversations about it and seeing other people's perspectives just because they are so different from mine. But most importantly I like making people laugh and feel good so don't hold back, yea? I apologize for the rant, a lot of things are interconnected and i wanted to give a good explanation on how and why I see things.

—i did something bad
pairing: anthony lockwood x fem!relic!reader
warnings: sexual references, kissing, a bit horny
authors note: wow.. this is by far the horniest piece i've ever written and i don't know if i should feel ashamed or proud.. you tell me please
Anthony Lockwoods hands were bound behind his back. he was sitting on the floor and wasn't able to move a muscle. the room was dark, he was just now coming back to his senses.
"good morning, sleeping beauty" a voice from the corner said, eachoing around the walls in the big room.
"who are you?" Lockwood asked, squinting. he could lightly make out a figure, but it was too dark and the girl, who the voice belonged to, was standing too far from him.
"oh, no one, really" you mused, stepping out of the shadow and in his direction.
you were gorgeous, was all he could and shouldn't think in that moment. you had beautiful h/c hair and your face looked like a statue, aphrodite or something.
"you are Anthony Lockwood, right?" you smiled, and for a second you seemed nice and as if you would help him
"yeah" he muttered "do you mind helping me?" he weakly lifted his arms. you looked around his body
you shook her head "nah" you bent down to his level "i think you look really pretty tied up" you whispered. your hand went to his left shoulder and with one drag forward, he was standing on his feet. "but you look so uncomfortable" you muttered, eyes jumping around the room, before they landed on a couch.
you walked him towards the piece of furniture, turning him around to look at you and then pushing him to land in the soft cushion
"better?" you asked and Lockwood averted his eyes, he didn't like the game you were obviously playing with him.
"look at me, pretty boy" you said, but Lockwood still didn't budge
finally, after a few more seconds of him avoiding your gaze, your hand went to his tie and wrapped itself around it. then you gently dragged. Lockwood could feel your minty breath on his cheek, still looking to the side, but unable to hide his surprise at the sudden proximity.
"why won't you look at me, huh?" you mused and you almost sounded disappointed. "i thought this was going to be fun"
he sighed, before he turned his eyes in your direction. "there he is!" you called and Lockwood had almost smiled. obviously you were the reason he had been unconscious and tied up in the first place, but something about you turned him on in a weird kind of way.
"oh i know that look" you mused, coming impossibly closer to his face to whisper: "desire"
Lockwood closed his eyes, waiting for your lips to connect, but nothing happened. "you didn't think it would be this easy, did you?" you shook your head laughing, letting go of his tie and walking back a few steps. "first you need to tell me a few things"
"yeah? what do you need to know?" he asked sarcastically "i'd love to tell you"
you ignored his tone "where did you get that skull?”
"which skull?” he acted dumb "i don't know what you're talking about"
"oh you do" you mused "it knows things, things only a few people could know. do you know his name, who he was?"
"why do you need to know that?" Lockwood was trying hard not to give in
"i'm noisy" you smiled and he watched intently as your hands went up to your blouse, unbuttoning the first button. "tell me" you smiled suggestively and Lockwood swallowed. he couldn't deny the effect you had on him
he shook his head, not trusting his voice to be steady enough.
you unbuttoned another one. half of your black bra being visible. your hand went back to your ponytail, undoing it.
"ehh" Lockwood stuttered "George he—" he watched as the third button got opened "he stole it"
"did he now?" you smiled, opening the last two buttons and Lockwood swallowed hard. you discarded your blouse, coming closer to the boy. your hand went back to his tie "what else do you know?" you whispered onto his lips "tell me everything"
Lockwood knew he couldn't resist anymore "fittes had it in their archives, only Lucy can talk to it"
"she can?" you asked surprised "i thought i was the only one who could hear him"
Lockwood shook his head and searched for your eyes, that had left his at the reveal.
"do you often do this?" he asked "seducing" he stuttered as your head quickly turned at him
"not as often as i would like, but i think i'm still good enough, yeah?" you asked, grabbing his shoulders and sitting down on his lap "i love doing bad things to pretty boys" you whispered in his ear
"do you, now?" Lockwood repeated your words from earlier
you were impressed that he was still looking up into your eyes, even though your breasts were right in front of him.
"yeah" you came closer "do you mind?"
he shook his head and quicker than he had anticipated, your hands went to his neck and you kissed him. he moaned slightly, looking up at you with begging eyes when you broke the kiss. "let me touch you" he whispered, lips swollen
"oh pretty boy" you mused, clasping your hand around his neck, in a choking manner, without applying any pressure "i don't do touching" you smiled before you dragged him forward and fiercely kissed him. your tung entered his mouth and he quickly took the lead, while now you were left moaning.
"i didn't know, you had it in you" you smiled surpised when you both broke the kiss, because of the lack of air.
"let me show you" he raised his arms
you shook your head laughing "so desperate" you plastered a last kiss on his mouth, before you stood up. "i think that was fair, you told me everything i needed to know and you even received your reward. normally they don't get their reward, but you were a good boy"
his eyes grew big as he watched you put on your blouse and buttoning it up. "can you at least let me go now?"
you had finished getting dressed and were now reapplying your lipstick, that had been lost on his lips.
"sure" you nodded, leaning over him as if you would free his hands, before you gently tucked a knife into the back pocket of his trousers "i think you are more than able to free yourself, pretty boy" you smiled, putting up your hair in a ponytail again "see you around"
"definitely" Lockwood smiled
you quickly left the room and he was on his own, struggling to free his hands.

TROLLS HOLIDAY OF HAVOC- A VALENTINES FANFIC: Part 1 (warning, rlly long)
only read this story if you are like REALLY bored and have nothing to do for the next bajillion minutes cuz ITS LONG
Its a mix of Broppy with a bit of Cliva!
I wrote this on Wattpad if you would rather read it there. 😘
"UGHHHHHHH," John Dory groaned as he and the rest of the BroZone brothers fell onto the couch the morning after one of their shows.
They were in Branch's bunker living room, where all of them except for Bruce lived now, though Bruce did live there when he was planning on staying in Pop Village for a while for shows, like this last week.
And there was only one way to describe what the brothers felt now: EXHAUSTED.
"I can't believe we did six shows in five days last week!" Clay groaned.
"I don't think I've slept since Monday," Branch sighed.
"At least we were all together," Floyd suggested. "It's better than when we were all apart, right?"
They all stared at him. It was obvious from their faces that they didn't really agree.
"I miss Brandy," Bruce sighed sadly, taking a picture of his wife and kids out of his hair.
"You always miss Brandy," John said, annoyed. "Why don't you enjoy hanging around us for a little while at least?"
"Because you guys never tell me how much you love me," Bruce shot back.
Floyd touched his shoulder. "Bruce, we love you a ton."
Bruce stared at him, then shrugged Floyd's hand off of his should. "Ehh, it's not the same."
"I'd be concerned if it was." Branch stood up. "Guys, we're all acting weird and mopey. You know why?"
"Because you didn't make us pancakes for breakfast like we asked?" John asked.
Branch frowned. "What? No. I told you; I don't have all the ingredients!"
"Well, I offered to go to the store for you, but nooooo you said--"
"It's because we all need a break!" Branch interrupted. "We've been working our butts off ever since we got back together, which is good, but we deserve a break sometime. Which is why--" He turned and grabbed the BroZone Planner book from off of the breakfast table, "--I completely emptied all of our activities this week." He placed it in front of Clay.
"What?! No way!" Clay opened the planner to the week that it was. It was true. The whole week had nothing written anywhere on it.
The brothers stared at it for a while.
"Omigosh, yes!! This is what I've been secretly wanting for the past two months!" John gave a sigh of relief.
"That means we can do whatever we want all week!" Floyd smiled. "This is gonna be so much fun!"
"Guys, we should totally go bowling!" Bruce suggested.
John gave Bruce a funny look. "Why?"
"Cuz I haven't been bowling in forever! Last time I went bowling with Brandy, I broke my left pinkie toe!" He lifted his foot to show his toe, which was hanging in a weird way.
"Eww, that is disgusting, put that down!" Branch shrieked, covering his eyes.
"Dude, it's just the way of nature. Things break. Including toes," Bruce explained.
"That doesn't mean we want to see it!" Floyd gagged.
"Okay, okay!! If you put that foot down, we'll go bowling!" John compromised.
"Okie!" Bruce put down his foot and gasped. "We can call it-- browling!!"
"Haha!! Yes! I love it!" John laughed, nudging him.
Clay had been quiet. His eyes were so wide they looked like saucers. Then he gave a relieved sigh. "Oh my gosh, it is so satisfying to open this planner to this week and see nothing in it."
"There's not nothing in it," Literal John pointed out. "It says 'Valentines Day' right there."
Clay gave him the bro, are you kidding me? look. "Thanks."
"You're welcome! 🤗" John answered.
"Ahhh, Valentines Day," Bruce gave another sigh, this time full of relaxation and enjoyment, as he sat back. "You know, Brandy and I met on Valentines Day."
His brother turned to him, annoyed.
"Yah, we know," John grunted. "You tell us every Saturd--"
"It was exactly ten years ago," Bruce began suddenly.
The rest of BroZone groaned.
"I was new to Vacay Island and the Islanders, and watched them party in the evening of Valentines Day, all partying like they were never gonna stop. I watched sadly, wishing that I had my own Valentine to party with."
"And then that's when you saw her," Branch predicted.
"By the snack stand," Clay continued.
"All alone," Floyd reminded.
"Looking kind of depressed," John finished. "Maybe a bit like us right no--"
"And then!" Bruce didn't wait for JD to finish. "I decided now was my chance. So I walked up to that beauty. Her eyes were shining like bits of heaven itself. Her skin as yellow as a really ripe banana. Her hair as stringy as the cheese in a cheese and spinach ravioli."
"Why do you always describe her like that?" Clay asked. "It absolutely disgust--"
Bruce ignored him. "And I walked up to her and said, 'Hey, you must be today's special cuz you're making me hungry!"
All the brothers winced, just as they always did whenever Bruce got to that part.
"I'm really surprised she didn't punch you after saying that," Branch remarked.
"Oh, she did," Bruce chuckled.
"Wait, what?!!" Clay gasped.
"Dude, how come you've never told us the one interesting part in this lame story?!!" John gaped.
"I don't know. It didn't really matter," Bruce shrugged.
"What is wrong with you?" Clay asked.
Floyd laughed.
"Well, anyways. After I said that, she--"
They all groaned again.
"BROOOOOZOOONNNEEEE!!!" came a high but sweet voice from the hallway.
Queen Poppy burst into the living room, her face full of excitement and joy. She waved a pink envelope in the air before twirling excitedly in the room. "I'm sorry that I just popped out of nowhere, but I had to tell you--!!"
She stopped, noticing Bruce's mouth open, mid-story. "Oop, am I interrupting something?"
"Nope, you just saved us," Clay said gratefully.
"Yes, please continue. Even your news may beat Bruce's story," John pleaded.
Branch smiled and rolled his eyes. He was completely grateful to Poppy for interrupting though. Hearing the same story every week wasn't very fun.
"What'd you want to tell us?" He asked, walking toward her.
"Well, you know how Valentines Day is in two days?" She sang in a happy voice.
"Ugh, don't start Bruce all over again!" John said, alarmed.
Bruce crossed his arms. "I don't get why you guys don't enjoy it. It's absolutely lovely."
"Sure, Bruce. If you say so." Floyd patted his shoulder.
"We were just talking about it," Branch informed Poppy, who looked a bit confuzzled.
"Oh. Well, good!" She grabbed his left arm. "I wanted to invite you all to--"
"Wait, invite us to?" Branch stopped her. "Poppy, I thought I told you, we were taking a break from parties and everything else all week!"
Poppy looked at him, remembered, then blushed. "Oh. Well, uhhh--" she scratched the back of her head. "It's not really a... party."
Branch sighed and took the pink envelope and opened it. Inside the card said:
YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO POP VILLAGE'S FIRST ANNUAL VALENTINE'S DAY DANCE!!
Formal Dress Required. Snacks Provided! 6pm to 9pm.
"Popppyyy," he gave long groan.
"I'm sorry, I didn't-- I forgot, you don't have to go!" Poppy's face flushed even more.
"Another party?!" John moaned, leaning back on the couch.
"But I was hoping to go back home that day!" Bruce said. He sighed. "Well, I guess..."
Clay also gave a sad sigh. "There goes our empty week." He grabbed a pencil and tried to bring himself to write in the planner Valentine Dance.
"For the second time, it's not empty! It already says 'Valentines Day', right there!" John pointed out again.
"DUDE HOW LITERAL CAN YOU BE?!!" Clay shrieked.
"Guys!" Poppy yelled.
They all turned to her.
She turned back to Branch. "Look. You're right. You told me not to invite you to a party. I thought the ball would be alright since it wasn't really a party, but I shouldn't have taken you so literally, and I'm sorry. You all don't have to go, no pressure." She gave him a kind smile and turned around and left.
They all stared after her.
"That was really sweet of her," Floyd said.
"Wow. Branch. She practically got on her knees, begging for forgiveness, and you just stand there like a doofus!" John said.
"Yeah, Brandy never would never have done that for me," Bruce said, impressed.
"Mostly because she doesn't have knees," Clay smarted.
The Clay and John snickered.
"I don't find that funny!" Bruce shouted.
Branch sat down next to Floyd.
"Penny for your thoughts," Floyd said gently.
"I think I'm gonna go to the dance," Branch said shortly.
"What?!" John turned to him. "What happened to browling?!!"
"We have all week to do that, it's just one day, guys." Branch shrugged. "Besides, I kinda want to make this Valentines Day perfect for Poppy. The past few haven't gone-- well, very well."
"What do you mean?" Floyd asked.
~~~ THREE YEARS AGO~~~
"Happy Valentines Day, Branch!!!" Poppy held out a Valentine's Day card to a grumpy Branch.
He took it with a plastered smile then stomped on it angrily.
"😱😱!!!" Everyone gasped.
~~~ TWO YEARS AGO~~~
"Happy Valentines Day, Branch!!" Poppy held out another Valentine's Day card for a grumpy Branch.
He took it and stomped on it.
"😱😱!!!" Everyone gasped.
~~~ONE YEAR AGO (Branch has his true colors now, y'all)~~~
"Happy Valentines Day, Branch!!" Poppy held out her annual Valentine's Day card to a now happy Branch, sure he wasn't going to stomp on it.
Glitter sprayed in his face.
"EEEWW, I GOT GLITTER IN MY MOUTH!!" Branch shrieked. "I THINK IMMA PUKE-" runs away gagging dangerously.
"😱😱!!!" Everyone gasped.
~~~BACK TO PRESENT TIME~~~
"Oof, yah, you do owe her a good Valentines Day," Floyd completely agreed.
"And maybe this is my way of doing it," Branch said. He got up. "I'm going to go tell Poppy. But none of you guys have to go."
"Oh, don't worry, we've got that in mind," John said, annoyed.
"Poppy!" Branch ran out of the living room smack into--
"Hiii!!" Poppy gave him a giddy smile.
"Poppy, were you standing there the whole time?" Branch asked, lifting an eyebrow.
She shifted uncomfortably. "Mayyybeee."
He couldn't help smiling.
"I was hoping you'd say you would still come! And you did!!" Poppy gave an excited squeal and jumped onto him, giving him a big hug.
"Okay, okay, but I don't think the rest of them are coming," Branch gently pushed her off of him.
"That's okay." She waved her hand carelessly. "As long as you're there."
He grinned.
"Viva and I are so excited, we're planning on decorating it all by ourselves and we're ordering the biggest cake you've ever seen and--" she gave an excited gasp. "Branch!! You'll have to come over tomorrow! I have so many ideas for your tuxedo!"
"Well, I-- uhh." Branch wasn't sure if he wanted to wear another tuxedo in his life. He had worn that all week so far.
"How about around 11am tomorrow?! Okay, good!" She kissed his cheek, not waiting for an answer. "I'll see you then!!!" And she danced toward the elevator.
Branch gave an exasperated sigh.
~~~ The Next Day~~~
"I'm off to Poppy's to see about tuxedos, guys," Branch said.
"Ouch, good luck with that." John lay on his back on the couch, covering the whole thing.
Branch rolled his eyes.
"Branch, do you have a mailbox?" Bruce asked from the breakfast nook. "I haven't had mail in forever!"
"Pfft, who'd send mail to you?" John asked. "You aren't a thrilling teenager anymore, Bruce."
"As a matter of fact, I get tons of fanmail, Mister I'm-Jealous-Cuz-I've-Never-Gotten-One-Fan-Letter-In-My-Entire-Life. But I was talking more about my family," Bruce said defensively.
"Mmm." John had no comeback.
"As an answer to your question," Branch finally managed to cut in, "No, Bruce, I do not. Poppy's working on that. I can go get your mail at the post office if you want."
"Ooh, and while you're there," Clay handed him a letter to mail.
"What's this?" Branch asked.
"Well, it's--" Clay began in his I'm-about-to-blab-about-serious-boring-and-important-stuff-for-about-fifteen-minutes voice.
"Ya know what, doesn't matter, I'll take it." Branch was not about to stand here for fifteen minutes. Not when he could be talking to Poppy. "Anything else?"
"Oh! I have a grocery list!" John got up and handed him a five-foot-long list.
"John, I'm going to Poppy's pod. I'm not going anywhere near the grocery store."
"Well, you asked 'anything else' and I told you!" John went back to the couch. "You're welcome."
Branch rolled his eyes.
"Here, Branch. I'll go do that stuff." Floyd got up from the breakfast table. "You can go on ahead to Poppy's pod."
"Oh. Thanks, Floyd." Branch gave him a smile.
"We're off!" Floyd announced.
"Hmm."
"They don't care, let's just go before they order us to go pick up something somewhere else," Branch whispered.
"Good idea," Floyd agreed.
They started off toward the direction of Poppy's pod (the post office was on the way).
"Soooo...." Floyd said in a singsong voice.
"Soooo?" Branch asked.
"What's your gameplan?"
"For what?"
Floyd laughed. "Asking Poppy to the dance!"
"What?" Branch gave him a funny look. "I have to ask her? She's not just gonna assume we're going together because we're dating?"
"Well, of course she does. But it's more fun for the girls when they get asked." Floyd grinned. "You know, you'd think you've never been in a famous boyband."
"Yeah, well, girls weren't always my first priority, you know."
"I can see that." Floyd's grin turned into a gentle smile. "Branch, I want you to do how proud I am of you."
Branch shifted uncomfortably. "For what?"
"Getting along. Without us. Even before you had your true colors back. You dealth with Grandma..." Floyd gulped. "Well, you dealt with that all alone. And you still went on."
"Barely." Branch shrugged. "If it wasn't for Poppy, I don't know where I'd be right now."
"Well, it wasn't just Poppy." Floyd looked straight into Branch's blue eyes. "Poppy isn't in control of you changing, Branch. That's almost all you. She may have changed you, but you let her. And that's why you're here now, dating the Queen of the Pop Trolls."
Branch flushed.
Floyd chuckled. "I remember the day you were born. Clay made ten lame jokes about you right away, laughing at them by himself, Bruce seemed to be grumpy because you had blue eyes when he had always wanted them, and John looked like he wanted to die because he now had four brothers instead of three. But I knew right away, you were something special, Branch."
"I'm not that special," Branch said. But he couldn't stop smiling. "Oh, there's Poppy and Viva!"
They were in front of Poppy's pod, doing backflips in the grass, giggling like crazy.
"Oh, man, they're gonna break their necks!" Branch rushed to them. "Poppy, wait, don't--!!"
Floyd laughed, watching. Then he looked at Viva. She was laughing at Branch as well, giving him a teasing push, and he turned on her and tweaked a blonde curl, grinning, something he had grown to do lately as he as now as close to her as his brothers.
Branch knew a lot about Viva already because he hung around Poppy so much. Floyd wondered if he was close enough to her to be able to jokingly tweak a curl.
No, definitely not. But it would be fun to have a friend like that. And he hadn't had very many since he went to Mount Rageous.
Suddenly, an idea popped in his head. It sounded alright. Would Viva think so?
He smiled and walked toward her calmly, on a mission.

okay so i've never requested a platonic fic before, but if you're interested, i'd love to see a best friend!jake seresin x platonic!reader! i dunno anything fluff or just silliness with the guy :)
like when i think about being friends with him, i acknowledge 100% that he is a CertifiedPrettyBoy™ but he's just not my type 😭
but yeah, platonic!jake seresin x fem!reader please :)) i could see sarcasm thrown at him from reader and him spinning it into one of his flirting bits
I was super excited about this request because I'm ace and I love platonic/best friend fics so much.
-
"What do we need for fondue?" Jake asked, leaning against the basket of your shopping cart, flexing his arms when a woman walked passed, looking over at him and smiling. You rolled your eyes, you should have known that going shopping for game day would've been easier by yourself. Although you hated driving and Jake was always happy to drive. And brave the absolute headache that was Trader Joes on a Saturday.
"Broccoli, some kind of bread, apples, sausage..." You read over the list that you had unfolded on top of a bag of bagels. You looked up from the list to see him looking behind him, still following the same woman, "Seresin, I swear to god-"
"I'm paying attention darling," he joked, turning back and smiling at you.
"You are not paying attention," you replied, "but I will pretend that you are. What do you wanna get?"
"Hmm," he hummed meaningfully before standing up straight, "broccoli, apples, sausage."
"You just want me to have to go back over to the bread cause you know I hate that lady," you muttered.
"I think you come here too often if you have a literal vendetta against a woman stocking shelves," he replied, "but also, I saw the guy with the kids headed to the veggies and I don't want you to commit murder over a bag of tiny trees."
"A true american hero Hangman," you laughed, turning the cart in the opposite direction.
The first time you met Jake Seresin he'd been out with some friends at the bar you worked at and he'd laid on the charm, pleasantly surprised but unbothered that you weren't interested. From there, something of a strange friendship developed and eventually evolved into him moving in with you when he officially moved to the area and didn't wanna live on base. The whole thing worked out better than you ever imagined that it would, mostly because he was the first roommate you didn't actively hate. You even did things you weren't entirely excited to do, like host Super Bowl parties for his friends.
"Look at this!" Jake interrupted your stare down with the bread shelves, trying to decide between the ciabatta and the french loaves. When you turned he was holding a chocolate cake shaped like a heart, "for Valentines."
"I have a date," you reminded him.
"On Valentines?" He asked, looking down at the cake and then back at you.
"Yeah remember, I told you? I literally put it on the calendar."
"Then we can have it the day before." He insisted, putting it in the cart.
"On Galentine's day?"
"More like Pal-entines day."
"Ehh," you cringed and laughed when he rolled his eyes at you. "Did you get everything?"
"Yeah, and that girl's number too," he smiled, waving his phone at you.
"Naturally," you replied, "hey maybe you can share the cake with her."
Jake shook his head, "first date on Valentines? Yikes," he said and then, "you aren't going on a first date on Valentines are you?"
"No...it's like our third date." You replied, "I've literally detailed both previous dates."
"Yeah and you still haven't told me, your nearest and dearest friend, who it is you're going out with," Jake pointed out. He was right, obviously. You hadn't mentioned who you had been dating. You were usually too transparent with each other and you wanted to tell him it was just that...it was someone he knew and if things didn't go well or fizzled out or anything, you didn't want Jake to feel like he needed to get involved. You loved him and he was your best friend but sometimes he went into older brother mode and you didn't need him thinking he needed to fix something or move something along that didn't need to be fixed or moved along.
"I will...but not right now, when we're supposed to be grocery shopping," you replied.
Jake stuck his tongue out at you and grabbed the grocery list from the cart, scanning over the items you hadn't crossed out yet, "does this guy like football?"
"Why would that matter?" You asked, grabbing the ciabatta bread finally and putting it in your cart, "I don't like football."
"Don't like football?" He practically laughed out loud as he said it, "darling you were literally screaming at the TV during play-offs."
"Um," you dragged out the 'm' as you shot him a skeptical look, feigning disbelief at his claim, "I don't remember that."
"I definitely remember that. Coyote as my witness, I have never seen someone that excited about football outside my dad," he replied. "Hey, it's not Coyote is it?"
"What's not Coyote?"
"This guy you're dating."
"It is not Coyote," you replied, "I promise you will be the first to know if I feel like it's definitely going somewhere...and it won't be Coyote."
"Just checking."
You rolled your eyes, taking back the grocery list from him, "grocery shopping Hangman, grocery shopping."

The Color Pink (Part 12)
wow this has so many parts to it now
it's never gonna end
The Sleepover
As he waited for Hazel to show up, Theodore rushed to clean up around the house, especially the bedroom. He was in a panic. He cleaned up any clothes laying around. He hurried to change his sheets and blanket. He couldn't remember the last time he changed them... He was unsure what to do with the clean unfolded laundry. He didn't have time to fold it all and put it away, so he grabbed another hamper and shoved it all in. He darted his head around, looking for anything that might gross her out, but everything seemed fine. He texted her his address, and she texted back: I'm on my way!
He paced around as he waited for her. He was suddenly extremely nervous. What if she thinks I'm gross? What if she changes her mind about me? What if she thinks I'm too weird? What if... There was a knock on the door that interrupted his thoughts. He went over and opened the door. It was Hazel. She had a huge smile on her face. "Hi," she greeted.
"Hey," he replied, "come on in."
She walked in with her hands clasped together. Now that she was in his house, she was a bit timid. She had a small pink bag filled with clothes and small accessories. "I have to admit," she rubbed her arm, "now that I'm here, I am a bit nervous.
"Yeah, I get that. We can just take it easy."
"That'd be nice. I'm a little tired, honestly."
"We can go straight to bed if you want."
"You don't want to watch a movie or anything?"
"Oh, I have a TV in my room!"
"Wait, really?"
"Yeah! It has one of those built in CD players!"
"Oh, cool!" She reached into her bag. "Cause I brought a movie!" She pulled out a CD case. Princess Mononoke. "Have you ever heard of Studio Ghibli?"
"No, I haven't actually."
Hazel gasped. "What?! Their movies are so good! My Neighbor Totoro? Kiki's Delivery Service? Castle in the Sky?"
Theodore shrugged.
"Seriously?! Oh, my gosh, you'll love them!"
"Well, we can watch it out here or in the room."
"Mmmm... Let's go in the room! I've never had a TV in the bedroom! It sounds super comfy!"
"It is. I don't really watch it a lot. It's mostly for background noise while I sleep."
"Really?"
"Yeah. When I was a kid, my mom had a TV in her room. Whenever I had nightmares, I'd go into her room, and she'd put the TV on so I'd feel safe. It still helps me sleep sometimes."
"Aww! That's so cute!"
Theo shrugged and blushed. "Ehh, it's no big deal. Come on," he grabbed her hand, "my room is upstairs."
He held her hand as he led her upstairs, where there was a couple rooms and a bathroom. He took her into his room, it was nicely decorated to suit his personality. There were a few band posters, a few family portraits, some Polaroid pictures of him with some other people. There was also a broken skateboard hung up on the wall. The TV was on a wooden dresser which matched his bed frame. His bed was made nice and neatly. On it was one single plush animal. Hazel picked it up.
"What is this?" she asked.
"Oh, that's Mr. PuppyDog! He was my first Build-A-Bear."
"Aw! He's so cute! I have so many Build-A-Bears, I can't tell you all of their names."
"I have a few other plushes. They're in storage, somewhere. Probably still at my mom's house."
Hazel put the plush back down on the bed. "This whole room is filled with your personality."
Theo shrugged. "Whatever that means."
"It means that your room is a lot like what you're like."
"I'm still confused."
She waved her hand in dismissal. "Don't worry about it. It's not a bad thing." She handed him the CD. "Here."
"Oh, right."
He went over to the TV and started to fuss with it. As he put the CD in, she continued to examine his room. She went to sit down on the right side of the bed, but she noticed something on the nightstand.
"Um... Theo?"
"Yeah? What's up?"
"Is this your ashtray?"
Oh shit... He forgot to hide that. "Um... Yeah..."
"I didn't know you were a smoker."
"Sorry, I thought you knew. I thought everybody knew."
"No, I... I didn't."
"..." Theo didn't know what to say.
"I have to admit..." She looked at him. "I wasn't expecting that. I'm a little disappointed."
"I'm ashamed, honestly. It's not my proudest habit. I've tried to quit a few times, but it's rough."
"I've heard about that. My dad used to be a smoker. He quit, but it took a while. He got really bad withdrawals."
"Yeah, so did I when I tried to quit. I was really moody and got sick a few times..."
She shrugged. "Would you be willing to try quitting again?"
"I could try."
"Please? For me?" She made a cute face.
He chuckled and rubbed her on the head. "Sure. For you."
"Good."
"I'll get rid of this." He took the ashtray and moved it into the other room. He came back in and grabbed the remote from the dresser.
"Before we start the movie, we should get in our PJ's!"
"Oh, uh... I usually just sleep in a t-shirt and underwear, but I can put on some shorts or something."
"That's fine! I mean, you're already in a hoodie and sweatpants."
"Yeah, I don't know why you got dressed to come to a sleepover."
"Shush! Be nice to me!"
He laughed. "You want me to leave the room real quick, give you some privacy?"
"If you don't mind."
Noise stepped out of the room and closed the door behind him. Hazel changed from her day clothes to a pair of cute pajamas. They were pink satin cami top and shorts with black polka dots scattered around. The ends were covered with black lace. She opened the door and poked her head out.
"I'm all good, now," she said cheerfully.
Theodore opened the door and entered the room again. His eyes grew wide and he blushed.
"What?" She tilted her head in confusion.
"Sorry," he chuckled nervously. "You look really pretty."
She went over and held his face with her hands. His eyes grew even wider and his face was red. She giggled and rubbed her thumbs across his cheeks. She tilted her head and kissed him softly. "Relax. It's okay."
"Sorry, sorry. I'm still working on that."
"I know you are. Now, come on," she went back over to the right side of the bed and sat down. "Let's watch the movie! It's such a good one!"
He walked over and crawled onto the left side of the bed. He propped up some pillows to make it comfortable to lean back. He handed her the remote since she was the one who brought the movie.
"Oh, wait," Theo blurted.
"What is it?"
"Um... There's another thing that you might not be too happy with."
Hazel gave him a look.
"It's not like the smoking, but... Can you reach into the drawer on my nightstand?"
"Why?"
"I need to take my meds before I forget. I usually keep them in there."
"Oh! Yeah, sure!" She reached into the drawer and grabbed an orange pill bottle. She handed it to him.
"There should be another one in there."
She looked again and found another. She handed that one to him, too. "What are those?"
"They're my meds."
"Yeah, I know, but what are they?"
"Oh! Well, one of them is an antidepressant and the other is for my bipolar."
"Theo... You have depression?"
"... You don't?"
"No."
"Sorry, I usually just assume everybody does until they tell me else wise."
"And bipolar?"
"Well, I mean, yeah."
"I had no idea."
"Ask anybody who works for me, they'll tell you all about it." He laughed. "I have to grab some water from the kitchen. You wanna come with? We can grab some snacks or something for the movie."
"Yeah! I could use a water, too."
"Okay, come on!"
The two went downstairs and into the kitchen. Theo grabbed a couple of water bottles from the fridge while Hazel opened the pantry. "Holy shit," she exclaimed. In the pantry was candy and snacks galore. There was every kind of chips and candy imaginable. Hazel almost felt overwhelmed by the amount of selection.
"Theodore," she said, "do you even have real food?"
"Um... kind of? I eat out a lot."
"There's so much..."
"Yep! Pick whatever you want!"
"Oh, geez, I don't know."
Theodore already knew what he wanted. He grabbed a pack of gummy bears and a pack of classic Pocky.
"Oh, I love Pocky! Do you-"
"Yes, I have the strawberry flavor."
Hazel squealed as he handed her a box of strawberry Pocky. Strawberry anything was her favorite flavor. Theo gave her a water bottle and grabbed her hand as he led her back upstairs. They went back into the bedroom and got in their previous spots on the bed. Hazel sat up with her legs criss crossed, Theo sat against the headboard. Hazel picked up the remote. Theo grabbed one of the pill bottles and took the medicine.
"I'll take the other one later," he said. "It makes me really tired. I want to stay awake for the movie."
"You're going to love it!"
As the movie started, Hazel scooted over and rested her head on Theo's shoulder. Noise suddenly grew anxious. He put his hands together and twiddled his thumbs. He tried to focus on the film, but his heart was racing. Hazel leaned into him more and wrapped her arm around his waist and rubbed his chest with her free hand. "Relax," she spoke softly. "I'm not going to hurt you." She kissed his neck a couple times then his cheek. He still stared wide-eyed at the TV, hardly focusing on the movie. "Let me help you out," Hazel grabbed his arm and wrapped it around her. Theo took a deep breath and tried to calm down. He closed his eyes and focused on his breathing.
Halfway through the movie, Hazel felt Theo's head leaned onto hers. At first she thought it was cute. "Finally relaxed, huh," she teased, but he didn't respond. "Theo?" Then she realized he was asleep. A huge smile grew onto her face. She did her best not to giggle. She pat his chest, but he didn't respond, so she pat his face. "Theo."
"Hmm..."
"Theo!"
"Wha-?! Huh?"
"You fell asleep." She chuckled.
"Ah, shit, I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it. You had a long day. Do you just want to go to bed?"
"I guess so." He yawned. "I'm definitely tired."
"Okay, let's go to bed, then." She took the remote and turned off the movie and the TV.
She got up and reached into her bag. She pulled out a toothbrush and tooth paste.
"If you want to use the bathroom first," Theo spoke, "I'll grab you some pillows and an extra blanket. I'm sort of... a blanket hog."
She giggled at him. "Okay."
Hazel went into the bathroom and began brushing her teeth. There were little paper cups stacked next to the faucet. She filled one up and used it to rinse out her mouth. She forgot to grab her mouthwash, so she went back into the room to get it from her bag. As she walked back in, she saw Theo putting some fresh pillows and a folded up blanket on the bed. There was also a fleece pink blanket balled up on his side of the bed.
"Oh, hey," he looked at her. "Done already?"
"Almost. I forgot to get my mouthwash. I have a little mini one!" She grabbed it out of her bag and headed back to the bathroom. She filled the cap and swished it around her mouth for a minute before spitting it out into the sink. She went back into the room again. "Okay, your turn!"
Noise let out a small laugh and went into the bathroom to brush his teeth as well. Hazel fluffed up the pillows and crawled onto the bed. She got under the blanket that was on the bed instead of the one he gave to her. She felt the pink blanket that was on his side. It was incredibly soft. Theodore rinsed his mouth with water then swished a cap full of mouthwash and spit it out. He came back into the room to see Hazel nice and comfortable.
"I appreciate you bringing me an extra blanket," she smiled at him, "but I want to share a blanket with you."
"I don't mind. I only gave you the extra just in case I hog the blanket in the middle of the night." He walked up to the bed and took off his hoodie. He was wearing a yellow NTV t-shirt underneath.
"Self advertising, huh," she chuckled.
"Not really. Whenever we release merch, they give me a sample of some sort. I have a million of NTV t-shirts and hoodies." He went over to the dresser and opened one of the drawers. "I do want to find some shorts, though."
"You um... You don't have to."
"Nah, I get really warm at night. I don't want to sleep in sweatpants."
"You can sleep in your underwear if you're comfortable with it."
"I'm pretty sure I have some gym shorts around he-"
"..."
"..." Theodore was blushing. "I don't want to make you uncomfortable."
"I'll be fine." She smiled. "We'll be under the blanket, anyways."
"I think I'd be more comfortable in some shorts."
"Whatever works for you."
He quickly slipped into some soft grey shorts as he still faced the dresser. He got into bed, but Hazel stopped him before he laid down.
"Don't forget to take your other pill!"
"Shit, right! Thanks for reminding me." He chuckled. "I totally would've forgot." He opened the other bottle and swallowed the pill with a mouthful of water.
"By the way, I wanted to ask you something."
"What's up?"
What's with the pink blanket? Was that one for me?"
"Oh, no that's um... That's... Well, that's my blankie. I, uh... I can't really sleep without it."
"Aww, Theo!"
"Shush!"
"No, no, it's cute!"
"Shuuush!" He pouted and blushed.
"Don't be embarrassed! It's fine! I'm not judging you."
"Alright, alright."
"One more question."
"Hm?"
"Can we cuddle? I wanna spoon." She smiled cutely.
Theo blushed even harder. "Um... Yeah. Yeah, sure."
"I call little spoon!" She plopped on to her right side and giggled.
(Tiniest suggestive warning. Nothing bad happens but there is a small mention.)
Theo nervously clicked the lamp off and snuggled up to her. He wrapped his arm around her waist and leaned against her with his head on her neck. She put her arm on top of the one that wrapped around her and intertwined their fingers. Theo gulped and took a deep breath. Even though they were only cuddling, he found himself growing incredibly flustered... including down below. He moved his hips back and away from her. She noticed him move and picked her head up.
"Where ya goin'?"
"I, uh..." he spoke shakily.
"Get back here!" She threw her hips back at him, but jolted forward once she felt him. "Oh!"
"Sorry, I'm so sorry, I-"
She giggled. "Theo, relax. I take it as a compliment."
"Oh, my gosh, I just-"
"Theo! Calm down! Would it help if we switched and I was big spoon?"
"That... Yeah, that'd be nice."
"Come on," she flipped over and nudged him.
He rolled over, but he was still so embarrassed. He took a deep breath. Hazel snuggled up to him and played with his hair. He focused on his breathing as she gently scratched his scalp. With her other hand, she intertwined their fingers and held hands. Theodore felt his muscles relax. Before he knew it, he was zonked out. Hazel thought it was cute that he got so flustered. He was so cocky and brave when they first met, but now he was a nervous wreck. She knew it was going to take a while for him to settle, but in the meantime, she was going to help push him through it.
Eventually, Hazel had also fallen asleep and ended up rolling onto her back. She was sleeping soundly until she woke up freezing cold. Just as she was warned, The Noise was wrapped head to toe in the blanket. He was curled up in fetal position with the blanket over his ears. His pink "blankie" was even over his head. No wonder he gets so warm at night, she thought. She grabbed the extra blanket he had given her, unfolded it, and covered herself up. She let out a small groan as she snuggled up with the blanket.
Hazel woke up again around her usual time, around 5 in the morning. To her, that was "sleeping in". She looked over at Noise, who was still sleeping with his blankie over his head. She debated on waking him up, but she wasn't too keen on disturbing him. With the way the paparazzi treated him the day before, she thought he deserved to rest. She slowly crawled out of bed so she could brush her teeth, but she accidentally woke him up doing so. His eyes squinted as he moved the blanket off his head.
"Sorry," she whispered. "I didn't mean to wake you up."
"Mmmph..." He groaned. "It's okay..." He tiredly slurred his words.
"I was going to let you sleep. You seemed like you needed it."
He sat up and took a deep breath. "Yeah... I'll be fine. I can always take a nap later." He yawned and stretched. He let out a small chuckled once he saw that she used the other blanket. "I warned you that I'm a blanket hog."
She giggled. "You should've seen yourself. You were wrapped up like a burrito."
"Yeah, I've always slept like that."
"That's probably why you get so hot at night."
"I can't sleep any other way."
She booped him on the nose. "You wanna go out and get some food or somethin'?"
"Yeah, sure," he yawned again. "I could eat. I'm gonna brush my teeth, though."
"I was gonna-"
"You can go first. I can lay down a few more minutes." He smiled as he slid back down.
She chuckled softly as she headed over to the bathroom with her toothbrush, toothpaste, and this time, she remembered her mouthwash.

Momo's "An Idol's Daily Life" Rabbitchat Part 2
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5
Preference survey
Momo: Maneko-chan, is it okay if I drop by Takanashi Agency today?
Tsumugi: Thank you for your hard work! Of course it is, is this about the dumbbell matter?
Momo: Yep that's right! (*´∀`)b I ordered two sets online by accident and Mitsuki agreed to take one off my hands!
Tsumugi: Thank you for going to all that trouble! Mitsuki-san has a shoot and won't be here today, so I'd like to ask if it's okay for someone else to receive them in his stead.
Tsumugi: I'm sure you're busy, so please let me take them if you don't mind...!
Momo: It's just an excuse to be on the move, so don't worry about it! I also want to see Kinako-chan since it's been a while☆
Momo: They were a big nuisance even if I kept them in my room, so Mitsuki did me a big favor~!
Tsumugi: He was excited to give his all in his home workouts, after he receives the dumbbells!
Momo: Since Mitsuki is already really strong, he'll get an even bigger power-up!
Tsumugi: It appears he wants to build even more muscle than he has now!
Momo: I'll do my best too, in order not to lose(っ`・ω・´)っ)))
Momo: Welp, it's evening already, but I'll drop by later, okay!
Tsumugi: We'll be expecting you!
Tsumugi: I may be away for a while to attend a meeting, so in that case is it okay if Banri-san is the one to welcome you?
Momo: Ehh!?!?!?!?!? Ban-san will be there today!?
Tsumugi: Yes! I informed him that you'll be visiting this evening!
Option 1:
Tsumugi: He said he looks forward to seeing you!
Momo: Eeh!? Can you let him know I'm looking forward to it too!? We had really bad timing when we met during MEZZO"-kun's recording last week, so I didn't even get to greet him (｡>д<。)
Option 2:
Tsumugi: He said he really wants to talk to you, after all this time!
Momo: Wait a sec, I'm getting nervous all of a sudden!! I'm very happy I get to catch up with Ban-san too! I'll be there asap, okay!? -==Σ((つ°∀° )つ
Option 3:
Tsumugi: Is Yuki-san going to be coming as well?
Momo: Not really, Yuki has another shoot to do, so I'll be by myself! I really hope he can come with me next time there's a chance to meet Ban-san though.
Momo: Wah~~~~ I'm kinda excited now!
Momo: Maneko-chan, thanks for telling me beforehand. If I'd come over there without knowing, my heart might not have been prepared! ><
Momo: By the way, can I ask you something?
Tsumugi: What is it!
Momo: Do you like Lemon cheese tarts*?
Tsumugi: I love them!
Momo: (*^_°) b
Tsumugi: Um, why do you ask?
Momo: It's kinda like a survey of Maneko-chan's preferences! (*>∀・*)/
Momo: It seems that a popular Lemon cheese tart shop opened recently, so I was wondering if you knew about it!
Tsumugi: Are you perhaps talking about the shop that recently opened near the TV station!?
Momo: Yeah yeah, that one! The staff told me it's delicious and that there's also pistachios in it!
Momo: Have you tried it yet?
Tsumugi: Not yet, unfortunately... Banri-san and I went there during our break the other day, but it was sold out so I couldn't get it.. ><
Momo: Thought so, it's really popular after all (ノ_・。) I heard people were lining up for over two hours on opening day.
Tsumugi: That's right..! I heard it's relatively empty on weekday mornings, but I can't really go then...
Momo: Some good news for you, Maneko-chan! (oノ∇ `)ノ:* • ° ° • *
Momo: They'll be accepting reservations, starting next week!
Tsumugi: Is that so!?
Momo: Apparently, if you make a reservation online you can skip the line!
Tsumugi: Wow! I'll be sure to check it out! Momo-san you're really well-informed!
Momo: Eeh, you think so? I just happened to catch something about it in the wind that's all (・´3`・)
Momo: By the way, how many people are in the office todaay?~*
Tsumugi: Huh?
Tsumugi: Including myself and Banri-san, there should be 5 people...
Momo: Understood! (・∀・)ゞ
Momo: I'll go buy some souvenirs so look forward to it✩
Tsumugi: Could this be..!
Momo: Fufufu, you'll have to wait and see ･･･(¯ー+¯)
Tsumugi:
1)Also known as Hokkaido cheese tarts apparently, this is what they look like
2) In this bit, Momo uses -nya instead of -na, like he usually does, though it wasn't possible to integrate it in the sentence itself without making it sound cringey (the original isn't, by the way) so just imagine him saying it with his >:3 mischievous cat voice lol

SO SORRY FOR REQUESTING AGAIN!! UHH CAN I REQUEST SHIN TSUKIMI X AFAB READER HEADCANONS, FLUFF??? TYSM!!!!!!!! :333333333333
SHIN TSUKIMI X READER HEADCANONS🧞♀️
🩵Dating Shin has few benefits. If he's working at a convenience store he miiiight get you some veryyy special discounts!! If you're having a problem with your device he'll help you for sure! Someone's talking shit about you? He'll call them out in verbal and every computer language he knows.(lil shinnie will TRY to protect u from old greendori man LOL)
🩵In YTTS he said that hugs aren't his thing. But hear me out, once this man discovers HOW AMAZING it feels to be held by YOU he'll melt on the spot. Congrats hun u made him a clingy ahh btch. Only behind closed doors tho! No way Tsukimi will cling to you in public nuh uh that's too pathetic for Shinnie. Mentioning public display of afection, Shin is quite ok with it! He won't be all lovey dovey ofc (he'd get embarassed) but that doesn't mean he won't touch you at all. He'd LOVEE to hold your hand!! Also cheek kisses and quick lip pecks>> Do that and he'll be a happy boy.
🩵Don't expect a lot of dates from this dude..He's tight on money, it'd be hard asf to take you out with the little money he has. BUT! If he ever has extra money after paying the rent he'll make sure to take you somewhere affordable or buy you something small but sweet. Buuut if the two of you move in together dates should be a more often thing. Both of you are paying the rent=cheaper&more money left for shinnie. Then he'll tryyyy to spoil you a little! ^^
🩵If you two live together expect cuddlessss! I'd say Shin is a switch when it comes to cuddling. He can be the big spoon but doesn't mind being the small one as well. He loves laying his head on your chest and lap too! He dgaf about the size. Pillow is pillow. Oh but ehh at night he might still your sheets as an accident.. But that's okie just kick his ass in the morning :3
🩵Pleaseeee remind this dude to take good care of himselff. Before he was dating you, ngl his selfcare was kinda..bad? Yk he was pretty down after Midori stuff etc. But now he has you! He's doing wayyy better now ofc but it's good to remind him anyway. He'll most likely return the gesture in your way. Oh! And I BEG..PLS TELL HIM TO SOMETIMES STRAIGHTEN HIS BACK!! Yk his posture is poor due all the time spent in front of the computer and his weak body built but we don't want old pops Shin to yap how his back hurts. Shoulder massages from you will make him melt fr.
🩵Soo yeah I think pookie Shin is a pretty sweet bf. I feel like your relationship is the type "you fell first, he fell harder". Protect the heart that he gave you. Be there for him he'll be there for you. Trust him he'll trust you. As your relationship develops he'll probably open up about Sou and stuff. Just don't hurt him <3
omfg im so so sorry for not posting😭 i was planning to do this request after christmas but my head was empty asf.. writers block fr BUT I THINK ITS OVER YAY. forgive my terrible grammar🫶 TAKE CARE LUVSS
#your turn to die x reader#yttd x reader#sou hiyori#sou hiyori x reader#your turn to die#yttd#shin tsukimi#shin tsukimi x reader#your turn to shine

A message to the TSP community
(Uhhh warning? Slight vent)
Ehh it's nothing all that bad or anything
Okay, so, sorry that this is something that I don't usually post. But I just got some things to say for a moment here.
So, I have a hard time in blending in at school. Almost everyone sees me as the quiet and sensitive kid. I've been trying to make them try to see me differently, but it feels like they just gently push me away because they're scared of me. I'm no good at starting conversations (in my native language) so what I do is that I'd throw topics of smalltalks and just hopes that one of them turn into a full on conversation. I wanna fit in, but it's just hard to do so when your reputation has been cemented into everyone's minds. I know I need to socialize in real life instead of being in it online all the time, but for the time being, I wanna thank the community that made me feel like I belong somewhere.
TSP fandom. Fellas, let me tell you just how much I've been thriving here. From the previous fandoms I've ever been in, I have never felt like I'm in my best place. I actually talked, made new friends, my art and writing has been improving rapidly, and overall it's just been amazing and thrilling. I thought that joining this community would be like any other fandoms I been in, have fun for a while and then just move on. But for this fandom, my god, I feel like I fit right in, I feel like I belong, I feel like people actually wanna talk to me and they're willing and interested to listen what I have to talk about. I feel the most happy here from any fandoms by far. And for someone who has trouble fitting in irl as I've stated, I couldn't be more grateful.
You guys, thank you so much for accepting me into the fandom, thank you so much for noticing me, thank you so much for loving my art, my characters, and my writing, thank you so much for making me feel like I belong.
Alright, that's pretty much what I have to say for now. My account had reached over 100 followers lately (Idk if I've said that yet, but eh), I'll be holding a dtiys as a celebration for this milestone. Once again, thank you so much TSP fandom, I LOVE YOU ALL SM MWAH /plat💙

New Living Conditions | Katsumi Story 2 (pt.2)
// previous //
K: (At the end of the day, I ended staying here in Nagi-nii's room anyway.. if I remember, Yuuchan is also his roommate..)
(This mirror..)
(My hair's grown out a lot since that time huh..?")
K: Speak of the devil…
Y: I was wondering why the Vice Prez was telling me to go back into my room, I was wondering it could be some trap but~ it's just you, Katsumi-kun.
K: Was he trying to pass on a message?
Y: Correct! He said.. "meet me outside"~?
K: It's late now isn't it?
K: Mhm, late. Wait, Nagisa-nii hasn't told you about how I'm bunking here has he?
Y: Ehh~? I don't think Hakaze-senpai would agree to that.
K: Hakaze-san, huh? (glaring to the side) Perhaps it's better he doesn't sleep with me in the same room as him~
Y: Uwaa, how scary.
Perhaps the Vice Prez' has rubbed off on you a tad bit much..
K: Choose your next words carefully, Yuuchan.
Y: Ahaha, I'd say it's like mother like daughter yknow?
K: Where did you hear that?
Y: I've been hearing some of his grievances towards your nicknames from Aniki.
K: He's overheard huh?
Y: Wooops, I think I let that one slip..
K: I don't mind, actually, join us.
K: It first started as a joke.. it came from a place of resentment considering the workload put on me in the beginning.
.. Eh..? Yuuchan?
Y: Sorry, you just sounded familliar..
K: What do you mean..? You've heard it before?
Y: The part about it coming from a place of resentment, you're.. not too close to your parents are you?
K: What parents? I only know people who forced me into this world.
Y: As I thought..
It reminded of me, actually.
K: (Damn, do any of these idols have actual functional families?)
Do you want to talk with me..? (tilts her head)
Y: I'd love to.. but well look at the time~!
Maybe next time.. when I'm more ready.
K: Alright, I'll keep it in mind, but I'll always be ready to listen.
K: (I had to let Yuuchan send me out so that security didn't suspect me, I'm glad this is only for a few days.)
(Hmm.. Saegusa-kun is waiting on the other side)
K: ..yawn.. (His face brightened up when he saw me..)
I: Good evening, Katsumi-shi! Did I just happen to wake you?
K: I am~ sleepy.
I: You're just in luck then, after pulling some strings, I managed to get you an apartment lease.
K: ..!? So soon?
I: You were rather perturbed at the thought of staying in either the dorms or a hotel, so I looked into some listings near ES for your convenience.
Wait for me here, I'll go get the car.
--- later ---
I: Put on your seatbelt.
K: Ah right, sorry.. I keep forgetting.
I: So from where we left off—
K: …-immediately dozes off-
I: -contented sigh- Sleeping so soundly next to a viper like me, you really have no fear, do you?
I: You know, even I'm shocked at this feat of kindness..
All you've done is cause me headaches, and yet.
The position for our manager had always been cycled through students from Reimei, a revolving door of new faces.
His Highness and Excellency stopped remembering their names—
I: Not that I minded, I saw it best to use a tool up to it's most efficient before discarding it away.. The look on their faces, perhaps they thought "is this going to be my life now?" pfft, how shallow. It's blameless, people chase their ideals for happiness. And yet you..
I: His Highness expressed his frustrations at seeing them go, asking to have our own official manager so he wouldn't have to call them to just get Jun to do it himself. The timing of that job listing was quite off, the number of applicants were quite low..
K: -stirring-
I: (Can she hear me, I wonder?)
-He slows down the car to a halt, opening her eyes before shining a flashlight at it, Katsumi is dead asleep-
I: (sighs) I suppose talking to you helps process these thoughts, where was I..? Right.
When you first arrived, you came in a barely ironed shirt and blazer. You were the youngest of the applicants, but to my surprise you already had 3 years of work experience. Illegally, anyway.
I: Your interview was rather interesting, countless odd jobs here and there, that comment you made about us idols.. However looking into your background told me the info I needed to hire you. The ability to keep secrets is treasured in this industry after all.
I: Well, it was a headache at first— you're awfully rude to any authority figure. Though you managed to gain the favor of the others rather quickly, your earnestness didn't go unnoticed. They started telling me about you.. using your name.
I: When Jun brought up your living situation and made /me/ do something about it, I was perplexed. What is it.. about you?
K: -stirring again-.. hmm..? Are we here now?
I: (..) Ah yes, we're almost there. You can continue resting for the meantime.
// next //

🦷 ⇢ Share some personal wisdom or a life hack you swear on? I'm always looking for wisdom to hoard
🌿 ⇢ Give some advice on writer's block and low creativity please? I'd love to know how you get around it
🦋 ⇢ What is something that's been on your heart and mind lately?
And soft 🧩 (As in I already asked three and you don't have to include this one!!) ⇢ What will make you click away from a fanficfion immediately?
I'm glad I finally got to participate in one of these! I tried to grab ones I didn't see you answer already!
hi hi hi!!! these are fun, aren't they? i don't do them very often but it's fun to open up a bit hehehe c: i did already answer the writer's block one already, so i'll skip that one
🦷 ⇢ Share some personal wisdom or a life hack you swear on?
i think one of my most powerful pieces of advice for people is to be weird. don't waste your time and mental energy managing someone else's reaction to your words, actions, or habits. things like. i want to write this fic but no one will read it because i suck/it's weird/it's too kinky/no one's into this show anymore. who cares? you want to write it, write it! i have things in somewhat strange places in my house because over the years, i've found the places where i Think about things, and if the thing i'm thinking about is There when i think about it, i'll do it! is it weird? fuck yeah! i get odd looks all the time when people come over. but who cares? it's my house, and it helps me live a better life. i tell the weird joke that only makes me laugh. i listen to the music that makes other people go eugh. i dyed my hair weird colors while working in a conservative industry. i'm so fuckin weird!!! but i'm also happy, and the people in my life are here because they like Me for Me, not some person that i pretend to be in order to fit in.
🦋 ⇢ What is something that's been on your heart and mind lately?
hmm. thinking about changing jobs. not sure what i want to do. making it to the end of the day without having done anything towards fixing anything about it, day after day after day. annoying. hey, everyone, quick, pay me to write turtle smut
🧩 ⇢ what will make you click away from a fanfiction immediately?
i don't like things in first person, but that's true for novels as well, so i'm not sure i think it counts as a fanfic-specific thing.
i have a moderate tolerance for some grammar issues, but if they're egregious i'll back out. same with characterization i dislike; i'll tolerate some, but at a certain point i'm like ehh i'm just not the right audience for this (see my argument on how ooc is a concept i don't agree with). if there's a fic with heavy angst, i scroll to the end and read it first. if it isn't satisfying to trudge through all of that emotional heartbreak to reach that ending, i give the fic a pass.
for reader fics specifically, i'm not big into oc/ fics that call themselves reader fics but aren't. think... written in third person, and they're named, and they have a physical description, like... my dude, that's an oc. which is cool, go you. but i don't wanna read your oc/ fic. i clicked on a reader/ fic, i want to read something in second person.

So, I played Princess Peach: Showtime! last night, and I have some thoughts.
Warning: Spoilers for the entirety of Floor 1 under the cut.
Opening
Wow, the music is good.
I love Grape's design! So... unique!
Grape's name, however, is ... ehh. It could be worse, but I'd still prefer something a bit more intimidating.
Why does Stella have to make crying baby noises when she's upset? It makes it hard to take her seriously and it's honestly just really grating to listen to.
Stella's design, while not the worst thing in the world, just seems a bit... off to me. I can't place it, but something about her just looks... weird.
Why is light magic named "Sparkle"? It just sounds a bit... goofy.
Swordfighter-1
Wow, the loading times for levels are... a bit much.
Why does the "level loading" music have to have that long, low horn that sounds almost exactly like the noise older Nintendo games make when they crash? The first time I heard it, I freaked because I thought there was something wrong with my copy of the game.
Why did they make B the action button and A the jump button? In every other game I've played, B is jump! That button switch has actually made me die a few times in a later level, and generally made me bad at parts that require jumping with quick reflexes.
Wow, this game IS easy.
The pre-transformation sections of levels where you just run around swinging your ribbon at stuff are honestly kinda boring.
Oh man, Swordfighter Peach looks AWESOME!
Again, the game is still really easy, but blasting your way through hordes of Sour Bunch members makes you feel INCREDIBLY powerful.
And I love the acrobatic and flashy dodges too.
Why does the very imposing knight with the hammer go down in one hit? Seriously, all you need to do is jump over his shockwave once and oop, down he goes.
The end boss is CRAZY! Who'd've thought that a Mario (spinoff) game would have you fight a giant killer plant that ISN'T a piranha plant! Also, wow, this random spinoff gets original bosses and Mario Wonder doesn't.
Jokes aside, though, I love the thorny flower bud boss. Does it have a name?
Ninja-1
Normally stealth levels in games are the ones that everybody hates, but honestly this one is GREAT!
Again, the game is still pretty easy, but stealth-attacking enemies and taking them out in one hit also feels POWERFUL.
I love how the guards can't tell where Peach is when she has a freakin' SPOTLIGHT shining on her. Or when she's pressed up against a wall and her GIANT YELLOW PONYTAIL is sticking up above her camo paper.
Why does being spotted make Peach turn into a log and then teleport to just before whatever stealth section you failed? I mean, I get sending you back to try again, but what's with the log? Is it a reference to some ninja trope I'm not familiar with?
Oh man, the chase sequence is SUPERB. Especially the wallrunning bits, and
When the enemy drops one of the scrolls, and Peach somehow uses it to summon a giant wave to ride. It makes no sense, but it's FRICKIN AWESOME.
Honestly, I'd really like it if the wave chase had ended with the enemy dropping a second scroll, and Peach using it to summon another crazy setpiece. (Hey, I just realized, that wave is a "dramatic setpiece" both in-universe and in the video game sense.)
Patissiere-1
Once again, the section before the transformation is... rather slow.
Honestly, I was expecting this to be the "annoying gimmicky minigame level", but I'm pleasantly surprised. It's a gimmicky minigame level, sure, but not an annoying one.
While getting above the minimum required to advance in the cake-decorating and cookie minigames wasn't too hard, I can see that I'll have my work cut out for me when I come back to get all the Sparkle Gems.
This isn't too bad, but it's annoying how in the cookie minigame there isn't any visual indicator that you're about to overmix something.
Cowgirl-1
One word: AWESOME!
Again, the ease at which you can lasso enemies and throw them around makes you feel powerful.
Oh, and that barrel-throwing fight sequence manages to simultaneously be both awesome and hilarious. I don't know why, it's just funny in the best way.
Crazy Thought: Cowgirl Peach tests her barrel-lassoing skills against Donkey Kong.
That horse chase sequence is pretty fun, but it's also where I died a few times because I lassoed when I meant to jump.
And, to top it all off, the boss fight against the leader of the robbers is epic. My only disappointment is that, when he's charging around the arena after you, you can't matador him into those piles of gem boxes landing the first hit revealed. I understand why you can't, but I still wish you could.
Floor 1/First Main Boss
It appears that Peach understands as much as I do that, while forcing open the door that's obviously full of dark magic might be a bad idea, it's also the only way to progress the game.
I'm not sure what to think about the fact that you need Sparkle Gems to open the Spooky Floating Door. I mean, the cost was low enough that it wasn't a problem for me, but I could see it frustrating someone who isn't very good at the game (especially since doors on later floors will probably use the same mechanic), and speedrunners are probably going to HATE it.
Why is the evil version of Sparkle named "Darkle"? It just sounds stupid.
WE'RE FIGHTING A GIANT DISCO CHICKEN!
Oh man, Disco Wing is awesome. Especially the part where THE GRAVITY FRIGGIN' FLIPS UPSIDE DOWN!
It's funny how the only time Disco Wing does that giant rolling attack is when the arena has been changed in a way that makes it possible for Peach to dodge it. Disco Wing, you could've won easily if you'd just done that attack a few times at the start of the fight!
Crazy Thought: Disco Wing meets Hole Punch from Paper Mario: The Origami King.
NINTENDO, I WANNA REFIGHT THE DISCO CHICKEN! LET ME REFIGHT THE DISCO CHICKEN!
So, after fighting Disco Wing I finally checked out the dress shop, and THERE'S A DISCO DRESS! That is DEFINITELY what I'm wearing for the rest of the game (or at least until beating the next floor boss unlocks another crazy dress pattern.)
Disco Wing's boss theme wasn't very disco-y for some rea- WAIT, I JUST CHECKED THE OFFICLIAL SOUNDTRACK AND ALL THE MAIN BOSSES HAVE THE SAME THEME?! Nintendo, WHY??! Now I won't be able to hear Juno Songs make covers for each individual boss!
In conclusion, Showtime! is definitely a straight A of a game so far. If it keeps on being as good as it was, I might even consider pushing its grade up to an A+.

Confessions
Summary: Copia wants to ask you out, but he's nervous.
Word count: 609 words lmao, sorry this one was shorter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copia loved you. Ever since he saw you, he'd been spellbound by your presence and just wanted to pull you into a big kiss sometimes. But he'd never do that, he was way too shy. All he could do was stare at you from afar, gazing at you dreamily. His head was filled with filthy thoughts about you, but you'd never guess it by the calm, almost blank expression on his face.
"Hey, Cardi," you said, giving him a small but genuine smile. "H-hi," he stuttered. Ugh, why did I say it like that, he thought. You didn't mind, though, you thought his stuttering was cute. In fact, you thought everything he did was cute. The way he fidgeted with his gloves, his dumb jokes, and his overall awkwardness. You didn't want to admit it, but you too were in love with him.
"So how are you today?" you asked him, putting an arm on his shoulder. He shuddered, feeling the warmth of your touch. "I'm good... My rat kind of, eh, chewed a hole in my shirt this morning, but other than that, I'm really good." He looked into your shiny, bright eyes and couldn't suppress a little smile. Satanas, you were beautiful. Every little detail of your face was permanently stuck in his mind from staring at you all day.
"What about you?" Copia asked, breaking eye contact. "Well, I've been great, but, um, I've been wanting to tell you something. Something personal, too, so we should probably go somewhere-" you looked around. "-private." Copia's eyes widened. "Oh yeah? Like where?" He was getting a little nervous, you didn't usually act like this unless you had something really, really important to say.
The two of you ended up in the small kitchen, which was empty at this hour. The lights were off and there wasn't any light except for the dim glow of a black candle. But you didn't mind, you'd be leaving as soon as you told the cardinal what you needed to. "Okay, so, um..." But just as you were about to talk, Copia raised his hand as to imply he was about to say something. "Oh, haha, you can go first," you chuckled.
Copia let out a shuddery breath as he took a step closer. "So Y/N, ehh, this might be a little awkward but... ehm... I kind of, I... what I mean to say is, I like you."
There was a moment of silence before you replied. "That's what I was going to say," you said with a slight grin. Before Copia could say anything, you jumped onto him and gave him a kiss. Not on the cheek, but straight on his lips. He broke away suddenly. "But I also have something else to say" he said, straightening himself. He cleared his throat and pulled something from his pocket. It was a little wooden box, painted black and red. He opened in and inside was a small but beautiful dead flower, and in the light of the dimly lit candle, it looked like it was glowing.
"Y/N, will you go out with me?" he asked, looking down, blushing. It took you a minute before you fully comprehended what he just said, and when you did, you too were blushing. "I-I'd love to!" you said, sounding way more excited than you meant to. He grinned happily as you said those three words; this was the greatest day of his pathetic, stressful life. "Are you sure? Really??" He gasped as you pulled him in for a hug, one that lasted a long time. "Yes, really," you laughed. "So, where do you wanna go?"

Weekly Tag Wednesday!
I'm finally on time! :D Thank you Kat @mybrainismelted for the tag! 💙
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
Name: Sky
Zodiac Sign: Pisces ♓︎
Personality type in enneagram, myers-briggs, or both: I only know that I'm supposedly INFJ-T
Before we hit the road, what snack are you gonna bring for our trip? Hmmm. Chocolate of any kind, chicken nuggets and sandwiches. 🍫🥪
Navigator gets to pick the music so what song are you turning on? I'll definitely be annoying and put on a whole musical 🎶 (most likely The Phantom of the Opera 🤫). Apologies in advance
What is a universe from a fantasy tv show you would like to visit? Supernatural and Alagaësia (Inheritance Cycle) 🐉 (technically it's only a book series yet, but the TV show is in the works, so it counts)
And what about a fantasy movie? I have no idea. Maybe James Cameron's Avatar universe? I'd love to see Pandora.
Okay, how about a sci-fi tv show? I don't think I've ever watched a sci-fi show, so I have no idea about this one. I'm open to suggestions though 👀
And a sci-fi movie universe? Ehh. I've never been too involved in sci-fi movies either, but I grew up in a Star Trek household. So maybe there 💫
Any other tv show or movie universes you'd like to swing by before we move on? Buffyverse. And HTTYD. All the way 🫡🧛♂️🐉 I'd probably never leave the latter.
Okay hold on to your butts we're switching gears to fanfic universes. Tell me which fanfic universe we're visiting first? Anything and everything. I have way too many favorites.
Cool, do you have one more you'd like to stop at before we head home? Who says I'm leaving?
Alright, on our way out of fanfic land you get to snag some tropes to bring home and apply to your own life, think fast! Fluff, Healing Together. Comfort. Endgame. Basically the opposites of what I usually go with 😆
Wow okay, hope those tropes work out for you!! Our adventure has finally come to an end, where in the world am I dropping you off? Budapest... but if anyone needs company somewhere else, I'm more than happy to tag along 😁

What do you think about the RW ships? just curious is all.
hmmm.. well! first i do wanna preface this with the obligatory "i'm not hating on anybody with this, u do u and i do me is my genuine philosophy. i'll respect u from the distance if you do the same for me"
aight so i'm not gon list every ship in the fandom that has spawned in outta the stardust n give my specific opinion on it, cuz i'm not exactly keepin up
the only two ships i don't mind n find cute on the paper are NSH x Moon and Arti x Gour cuz both of them have that Old People Love Each Other in Easy Peace Despite The Circumstances Surrounding Them kick to them. i'm a weak bitch for that type of troupe for romantic relationships. not gon do anythin with 'em in my own stuff, though
i find myself more interested in the entirely and wholly platonic interpretation of everything in the game. platonic love is a matter of course, makin the story flow feel more smoother to me for that while also stayin nicely close to that religious narrative of the game (u can fight me on this but the Ancients' religion isn't *wrong*. the bad thing that happened with it is that it was taken to extremes and variety wasn't allowed. i could tell you why riddin oneself of the third and fifth sin isn't a bad idea at all- afterall, i kind of live by that myself!- and what they probably meant by riddin yourself of the sins without the extremist approach)
for the other ships... 🤔
well, the iterators are far too rooted in my head as sibs to vibe with ships with them, but more properly told:
• Suns and Pebs are too much of "teacher and naive student" to me and i also find this dynamic more interesting to explore. uuuuu how spicy it is to think of Suns brainwashing Pebs but meaning it well uuuuuuuuuu
• Suns and NSH are... let's just say that if i was in NSH's place and Suns talked to me like that i'd slap them so fuckin hard n if i WAS in a romantic relationship with them i'd dump them then and there (not in a bitchy ex kind of way, i'd be still down to talk, but i can't imagine bein in a relationship where the other half calls the most likely inevitable death of your closest friend a "setback" to their brainwashing of that friend's little brother would be Very healthy)
• n i think what is the only other iterator ship left, Sliver and Moon... i find it kind of silly, honestly? like as far as *i* know the main reason why that exists is cuz Moon remembers what happened with Sliver after being given her own pearl about some notes she wrote herself on Sliver despite being baround three gazillion bagillion braincells short. i don't really see that as a strong incentive to start shippin 'em cuz like. you give Moon a very solid memory jogger and right in her second set of monologue she states that Sliver is literally a legend among the itties-titties. the best i can compare it to a real life thing is asking an american if they have any idea who Abraham Lincoln was at all. or asking a slovak if they knew who Finally managed to solidly establish our language after centuries of oppression. like of Course you're going to know That even on ur deathbed??? those are incredibly important historical figures for you n your home!!! also c'mon she remembers the feckin bug pupae, if THAT stuck in there this big boy info is def gon be kickin around
as for the slugcats... well ehh..... you can probably guess from what i mainly draw that i'm not Too focused on the slugs, only maybe Hunter so my slugshippin lore knowledge is p weak. when i first saw the slugshippin take off before i started postin bout RW again i thought it was silly to ship animals n still kinda do? 🤷♀️ doesn't help that canonically they have no business meeting each other except Monk n Surv (that is a strong No to shippin) and Hunter's writhing corpse n Gour (we are Not ducks we do not support necrophilia). i generally like to stick to the timeline, personally. good world-building. i respect good world-building too much to deviate too hard
BUT! i am going to use my status as pre-Downpour RW veteran and tell you to not listen to the whiny wrinkly babies in the tag that wail about how slugshippin is ruining the fandom. fuck 'em bitches, you do what u wanna (within moral common sense)
#Spot says stuff#rw#sorry you probably didn't want me goin on a spiel about RW shipping in general but yanno if we are already here#there's also not really much i have to say to the matter in the more specific shippin kind of sense
