different types of dates with ateez
kim hongjoong - studio date
Tumblr media
he loves producing but he also loves you and sometimes he has a little trouble balancing the two
absolutely thinks he’s a genius when he realises that he can just combine the two instead and take you to his studio
he loves to sit you on his lap whilst he works, answering all your questions with a pretty smile
will order food to the studio and ask (beg) one of the members to collect it for him so neither of you have to leave the romantic haze you seem to be stuck in
you feed him while he works, pressing mouthful after mouthful to his lips before using the same cutlery to feed yourself
“what does this button do?” you ask as you lean over to point at a circular one that sits just left of his hand. he quirks a brow at you, a smirk sitting pretty on his lips.
“do you actually want to know? or are you going to zone out again like last time?”
park seonghwa - lego date
Tumblr media
it’s an incredibly cute concept in theory, but i feel like seonghwa would take over a little when it came to building the lego
you’d have to come up with some sort of system to make sure it’s fair like doing one number on the instructions each before passing it over
either that or the two of you do separate lego sets on opposite ends of the table (which he hates because the pieces get mixed up)
if he sees you do something wrong whilst it’s your turn to built, he doesn’t say anything but gently corrects you with his hands instead
displays it next to his bed and stares at it when he misses you a lot
“there’s a pink piece missing somewhere, seonghwa,” you mutter as your fingers card through the left over pieces that your boyfriend was trying to sort into organised piles.
“well maybe if you let me sort them out, you’d be able to find it easier…”
jeong yunho - city date
Tumblr media
he loves exploring cities whilst he’s got your hand tightly grasped in his or a strong arm wrapped around your waist
definitely has a long list of places that he picked out for you, and after each activity he sits you down and gets you to choose the next one
loves taking you on the public transport because more often than not it’s a tight squeeze and he gets to hold you close
lots of stops at cafes in between activities where he’ll definitely buy your coffee
and if he buys you a pastry he won’t actually let you feed yourself because why would you when he’s around to feed you instead?
“i can feed myself, y’know,” you giggle along with yunho as he pressed yet another forkful of cake to your lips. your complaints don’t stop him as he breaches you lips with it.
“why strain yourself when you have a boyfriend to do it for you?”
kang yeosang - aquarium date
Tumblr media
he takes you there because he thinks it’ll be calm and romantic but actually there’s actually screaming children everywhere
not that he really minds because the moment he sees your face light up at all the fish, all thoughts of having a calm date slip out of the window
lets you drag him around to each and every tank and listens very intently as you tell him which fish you like best
the two of you name the fish together; you name the cutest one yeosang and he finds the weirdest looking one and gives it your name
you tell him he’s being mean, but he’s quick to shut you up with a kiss
“look at that cute little epaulette shark,” you squeal as your hand shoots out to grab at your boyfriend’s. you’re too focussed on the fish to notice that he hasn’t taken his eyes off of your face the entire time.
“cute, indeed…”
choi san - gym date
Tumblr media
he lets you know that you don’t have to go to the gym with him, but you insist on the fact that you want to
you actually just want to stare at him as he works out, which he works out pretty early on when you zone out watching him do bicep curls
it’s a mutual thing though because he absolutely almost drops to the floor when you start doing squats in front of him
the whole date is just you two going back and forth to see who’s going to break first
it’s him and it only takes like 20 minutes because he’s a man after all, and seeing you in those little gym shorts it’s enough to drive him insane
“bet you can’t sit there in silence while i do this,” you poke fun at him as you grab a pair of medium weight dumbbells and begin to squat. you don’t have to see him to know where his eyes are focussed.
“why would i stay silent when i can tell you how hot you are instead?”
song mingi - bed date
Tumblr media
it’s exactly how it sounds - the two of you lay in his bed in pyjamas doing absolutely nothing all day long
although you do actually do stuff, but you just do it all in bed with the exception of sending mingi to pick up the take out
he brings it up to the bedroom and lays a blanket out across the sheet
the two sit on it like you’re having a picnic whilst mingi finds a nature documentary to put on so he can ‘create a vibe’
whatever vibe it is, you’re not sure, but you find it cute anyway and you’re more than happy to follow along with his weird suggestions
“the picnic i can cope with, but the bird sounds?” you get cut off by mingi shoving a piece of salmon maki between your lips to silence you. you chew on it gently, trying your hardest not to laugh when a pigeon starts cooing.
“it’s for the atmosphere, sunshine… the vibes, y’know?”
jung wooyoung - hair dye date
Tumblr media
the two of you, in his bathroom, surrounded by the smell of chemicals and the feeling of a bleach burnt scalp…
it doesn’t sound romantic at all but as he massages the pink dye into your hair with his fingers, you can’t help but relax against his touch
he refuses to get his own hair dyed because he ‘doesn’t trust you’ and ‘doesn’t want the stylists to yell at him’
but he does get in the shower with you when it’s time to wash your own dye off
and after he’s done washing your dye away, he bends down so you can wash his hair too, even if there’s no dye coating the stands
“there’s either shampoo or hairdye in my eyes, jung wooyoung,” you grumble as you desperately rub at them with the heels of your hands. he rolls his eyes and pulls your hands away from your face.
“i’m not the one doing my hardest to rub it in to your eyeballs, though, am i?”
choi jongho - basketball date
Tumblr media
literally in the dead of night he drags you out to the park nearby to play on the courts
he says it’s because it’s ’romantic under the moonlight’ but you’re pretty sure he just likes it when he has the court to himself
even if you’re proficient at basketball, he’ll find some excuse to come up behind you and wrap his hands around yours to ‘correct you’
you actually end up playing worse after his ‘corrections’ but that just gives him even more of an excuse to invade your personal space to help
you end up playing a match together but he keeps playing dirty by kissing you and then claiming ‘there’s no rules against it!’
“i know how to shoot a basket, idiot,” you giggle as jongho positions your arms from his spot behind your back. he’s pressed in close as he puts the ball into your hands.
“i’m not so sure, baby… you definitely look like you need my help.”

Baby Steps
Satoru Gojo
[Chapter 26] Date
← Previous Chapter - Story Masterlist - Next Chapter →
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairing: Satoru Gojo x f!Reader
Discord +18 - Twitter - Ko-Fi
Happy to co-host Gojo NSFW Week 2023! Come join us on Twitter!
Tumblr media
“I could just eat you.” You kiss Seiji’s tiny feet, and he laughs. You adore his little laughs more than anything. You never thought you could love him more than the day he was born, but your love for him keeps growing more and more each passing day.
At five months old, Seiji looks like a replica of his father. You wait for him to grow more into his features, to look more like you. But he doesn’t. You love him either way, even if he looks just like Satoru. Seiji just has the chubbiest cheeks and the cutest rolls. You can have a thousand of him, and as you think that you realize that you’re forgetting how horrible childbirth was. 
“Are you telling him that you’re gonna eat him again?” Satoru asks as he walks to sit by your side. You don’t pay attention to him, just looking at your baby. Satoru sits by your side and kisses the temple of your head.
You haven’t had the date that you were supposed to have, and you’re going out tonight. And instead of getting ready, you’re playing around with Seiji. Satoru clears his throat before he says, “Maybe I should handle Seiji while you get ready.”
“Why don’t you get ready?” You ask as you look over to him. But he is ready. You’re about to fight it off but you hear a certain sound that makes you hand the baby to his father. “Change his diaper while I go get ready.”
Satoru is clearly annoyed when you hand him Seiji. It’s his fault for suggesting that you get ready. It’s also baby Seiji’s fault for making a mess in his diaper during the worst possible moment. Satoru wastes no time in changing the diaper– Absolutely terrified though, especially after what happened during Seiji’s first month of life. Satoru is protected by his infinity, but the room isn’t. 
“I’m gonna miss you tonight, Seiji.” Satoru says, kissing the top of his baby’s head. Every night that Satoru has to work, he hates the fact that he won’t be able to be close to his baby. But Satoru wants to spend some time alone with you, and that means that he can’t bring Seiji. He doesn’t like the fact that Seiji is growing up so fast, and every time Satoru looks away the baby seems to learn something new.
He walks back to the living room, where Megumi tries to assemble something with his legos. Satoru smiles, realizing just how lucky he is. Tsumiki and Megumi argue like any pair of siblings, but apart from that, they’re very calm kids. Satoru speaks up, “Do you wanna play with Seiji for a bit?”
“Didn’t he just shit himself?” Megumi asks, leaving Satoru wide-eyed. Where did Megumi learn that language? Satoru doesn’t have a potty mouth, then he remembers that you certainly do. Even around Seiji, even though he scolds you about it. He doesn’t want Seiji’s first words to be fuck or shit. Apparently those are the only words you know.
“Don’t use that language, Megumi.” Satoru scolds him, and Megumi rolls his eyes before standing up and walking back to the room. You’re in the process of buying a house, and Megumi simply can’t wait since he was promised his own room. 
Satoru sighs before looking down at his baby. Seiji is stretching his hand out, trying to reach for something. Satoru doesn’t know what, and he’s trying to find what baby Seiji is looking at. He’s cooing at something, and then Satoru’s eyes finally land on the fish-shaped toy. Satoru grabs it and hands it to the baby. Seiji grips it, and Satoru just watches. 
There’s a knock on the door, and Satoru stands up, taking a deep breath to prepare himself to handle Kaya. When he opens the door, he tries his best to smile at her. She looks unamused with his presence, but her expression quickly changes when she sees baby Seiji. She doesn’t waste a minute in taking the baby from Satoru’s arms. 
She’s holding the baby in the air, risking that he pukes all over her, but she doesn’t care. “My cute little nephew, I’ve missed you.”
“You know it’s not just him, right?” Satoru asks, watching as Kaya walks inside. She ignores him, of course she knows. Kaya has met Megumi and Tsumiki a handful of times, and they seem fine. She won’t struggle much tonight. Satoru shuts the door. “How are you and Daisuke?”
“What do you mean?” She responds, genuinely confused. It makes Satoru click his tongue, in disbelief that they’re still not dating even though they’re so clearly into each other. Satoru ends up shaking his head, not wanting to get into the issue.
“Heads up, Seiji loves to poop right when you’re changing his diaper so be prepared.” Satoru warns her, and she chuckles.
“How many times has he done it to you?” She questions, and he scratches the back of his neck, awkwardly looking elsewhere. Too many times for him to be scared. While he looks away, he watches as you walk out of the bedroom, looking as stunning as ever. 
You’re putting on your earrings, and you’re clearly not ready to go yet. You just walked out of the bedroom to greet Kaya. When she sees you, she smiles and says, “There’s my favorite MILF.”
Satoru clears his throat, which doesn’t necessarily do anything. Kaya side-eyes him before she turns her full attention to you. You kiss her cheek before you kiss your son’s head. “How are you? Didn’t expect you to be here so early.”
“I’m right on time, am I not?” She responds and Satoru hums in response. You call over Megumi and Tsumiki, and it takes them a minute to walk out of their room to the living room. You smile at them before informing them,
“You remember Kaya, right? She’ll be taking care of you tonight. Please be nice to her.”
Kaya smiles at the kids, and Tsumiki smiles back. Megumi doesn’t care all that much, but it’s fine, she knows he’s a grumpy kid. You tell her basic instructions, stuff that Satoru can handle, before you walk back to the bedroom to finish getting ready.
Satoru wants to rush you since you have a special reservation, but he knows better than to. He just has to wait.
-
You’re almost late to your reservation, but thankfully you’re right on time. The place looks fancy, and the menu contains words that you can barely pronounce so you know this is way out of your price range; luckily, Satoru is paying. You’re just hoping that Seiji’s college fund isn’t the one that’s paying for dinner.
“How’s work?” You ask before you bring your glass up to your lips. You still don’t have a grasp on what he does, but you’ve moved on past it. You can’t see it, so it doesn’t concern you. As long as he isn’t killing innocent people, you’re fine. 
“Let’s not talk about that, please.” He chuckles. He changes the topic, “How are your classes? Were your exams too hard?”
“Not too hard.” You respond. You don’t want to admit that the term was a bit harder on you since you hadn’t taken classes since the previous fall term. Everything was so much harder for you because of your newborn. You managed to pull through though. “Glad to have the time off.”
“That’s nice to hear. Just know that if you don’t want to do it anymore–” He begins and you cut him off. As tempting as it sounds, you can’t really can’t just drop your studies to be a stay at home mom.
“I do want to do it.” You tell him. Your hands reach across the table to hold his hands. “Especially since you’re paying for everything. I don’t have that much left anyway.”
“Just letting you know that you have other options!” Satoru responds. Satoru keeps looking you up and down, you simply look stunning. He’s truly a lucky man. It isn’t official yet, but you have a baby and you act like a couple so is there really a need to formally ask you to be his girlfriend? Well, he guesses that he should. “I wish I could stay with Seiji all day long.”
“I mean… You could. Once I've graduated–” You begin and he interrupts him.
“My type of job isn’t one that I get to quit. I’m stuck doing it until I’m dead.” He’s told you it a couple of times, but you don’t seem to pay attention to it. Maybe he’d explain everything further, but he doesn’t want to ruin the mood. But you speak up,
“Why were you so insistent on your parents not finding out about Seiji?” 
“I just thought if no one in my life knew about Seiji then he’d be safe… I mean, you saw what happened when someone that wasn’t supposed to know found out.” He answers. He still hasn’t quite figured out how Suguru found out, but he has an idea. He shakes his head before he smiles at you and he squeezes your hands, “Let’s not talk about that.”
“What do you want to talk about?” You ask him, slightly tilting your head to the side. You look sweetly at him, slowly blinking. Fuck, you look so beautiful.
“Just how beautiful you look. Thanks for coming out with me tonight.” He can’t stop staring with loving eyes, and you feel your heart flutter. You feel so warm inside every time that you look at him, and you nearly squeal each time he compliments you. Kissing him just makes you smile foolishly, and you hate that he knows the effect he has on you. He’s been sweeter than ever lately, and you assume it’s because he sees you smile like never before.
“Thanks for inviting me.” You respond. It’s nice to be out after what feels like an eternity. You don’t have to worry about your baby or the kids. “We should do this more often. Just some alone time for the two of us.”
“I love that idea. No musty kids around. No dirty diapers to change.” He comments, causing you to laugh. You know that he hates changing dirty diapers but it’s a task that always falls in his hands. “Plus we’ll have fun after.”
“Doing what?” You question before he informs you,
“I took the carseat out of the car.” It doesn’t hit you, but when it finally does, a smirk comes to your lips. He then clears his throat, “I hope you enjoy the dinner tonight. I love this place.”
“Can’t wait to taste the food.”
-
It’s fair to say that you weren’t a big fan of the food so before your date comes to an end, you and Satoru walk around to find a place nearby to eat. Satoru keeps his eye out for a place that you might like, and he tries to walk fast since he sees you shivering. You’re both well dressed since it’s December, but it’s windy out. Wind hits right on your face and you’re sure that you’ll end up sick. 
“The food wasn’t that bad.” Satoru tries to argue, and you don’t dare to disagree. It just wasn’t too tasty, and you left half of your food untouched. Satoru found it delicious on the other hand.
“Yeah… I guess it wasn’t.” You respond, following his every step. He comes to a stop when he spots a cupcake shop, and he grabs your hand before dragging you to it. You’re relieved when you step into the place, warming up immediately. 
“What kind of cupcake do you want?” Satoru asks, and you take a moment to think about it.
“Carrot.” You respond, and a smile comes to his lips. Luckily enough, there isn’t a line so you’re able to get your cupcakes right away. You take a seat and begin to eat. Satoru is trying to get some of your food, but you make sure to keep it far from his reach. The fact that Satoru has really long arms doesn’t help you. 
“Have you had fun?” Satoru asks, snatching your food out of your hands and offering his own. You refuse to take it though. You nod in response, getting some of the icing of his cupcake on your finger before bringing it up to your lips.
“How about you? I know you enjoyed that nasty ass food.” You joke, and he rolls his eyes. You end up laughing at his reaction. He finally gives you back your cupcake and you gladly take it from his hands.
He clears his throat, “So…”
“So?” You blink rapidly, curious as to what he has to say.
“I guess we don’t need to do this properly since we have a baby and live together and do everything that couples do…” He begins, and he pauses to gather his words. You have an idea of what’s coming up, but you patiently wait for him to finish his statement. “I don’t wanna drag this out, so I’ll put it simple. Do you want to be my official girlfriend?”
You laugh. “I thought that at this point you’d be giving me an engagement ring but yes–”
He doesn’t waste a second as he reaches into his pockets to pull out the ring that he has. Your eyes go wide looking at it. You weren’t serious. There’s a smile on his face as he says,
“Do you want to skip the girlfriend stage and become my fiancée then?”

(I feel like Hound would sometimes zone out. Makarov would obviously want him ready whenever and for whatever he needs from hound. So as a result hound has conditioned himself to just zone out, he's there and aware of his surroundings but is so used to just waiting for an order. He can, and will sit there for hours.
Since Hound is with 141, he'd not be doing anything, still 'recovering' from his abduction. No task to fulfil, no orders from his superiors. He's free to do what he pleases, as long as it's within confines of the base. However, being so used to never putting his wants first, he unsure of what to do.
So price, being his saving grace, teaches him to enjoy things. TV Shows and Movies, something like bluey, which could do him well. Small things that could give him a bit of object permanence, like a plush toy or Lego set he can build himself, something with instructions but encourages creativity.
With the insurance that its his, that it will never be taken from him. That he's free to be a person and do as he pleases. What do you think?)
Yoooooo sharko and @agoofyannoyancetolaw I must be your brother from another mother because you two are reading my brain right now with your ideas lol.
But this is so true, Hound probably got sniper-esque like training to pay attention so our boy could 100% sit in one position a solid 24 hours just zoned out and waiting for orders.
And I do think Price would try that or maybe try doing the things they used to do before the kidnapping and mind break but it would go poorly. Price is public enemy nr.1 in Hound's eyes and Its hard to imagine Hound wanting to be near Price without trying to rip his throat out.
But like I had an idea where it basically falls on Soap and Gaz to watch Hound when he's given his daily time out and about.
And like you're sitting on the couch between the two Sargents, the muzzle irritating your skin from how tightly it's on (you bit someone again((ooh, also maybe Price having an argument with Kate where its like "how many times does Hound have to hurt people for you to understand you can't help him? The most merciful thing you can do is put the mad dog down."))
And like Soap decides he hates the quiet and puts some reality TV show on, or some Indian drama. And you're zoning out as you watch it, primarily listening to Gaz and Soap — Makarov conditioned you to always listen, so he can focus on important deals and conversations knowing you're listening to everything around him.
And the two Sargents start bickering over why Delilah can't marry Carlos because he's so in love with her and for some reason you speak up—
"she's fucking her brother."
And Soap tries to dismiss it and give his own conveluted theory but yours turns out to be true a scene later. Gaz cracks up laughing, soap falls off the couch, and your heart— your stupid, traitorous, idiotic, heart— births a small bubble of pure, innocent, giddy that bursts through your lips in a small, malformed laugh.

Käärijä's Veikkaus interview, 5.5.2023
Tumblr media
Ten Questions For Käärijä
In this interview Vantaa's most famous bowl-cut Jere Pöyhönen tells, how he thinks about his Käärijä-named alter ego and why he would sometime want to "whack" Käärijä. Furthermore, he reveals his embarrassing vice - and reminds you that in every one of us there lives a tiny Jesus.
Q1: Why do you have such a funny haircut?
"When I was in junior high, I got a bowl-cut during a break. It was on a whim. There were us two boys, who did it, and we rocked with the bowl-cuts. I've always been whimsical, a guy, who is easy to provoke. I like to try things, and I've never really been embarrassed by anything. We had a few friend groups in Vantaa, with who I hung out with, and I was always the clown in the group. I like to make others laugh and I also like to laugh at myself. The others laughed with me, not at me - or that's atleast what I like to believe!"
Tumblr media
Q2: So, Vantaa - you're a born and bred Vantaa-citizen. What does Vantaa mean to you?
"Quite a lot actually. I think that Vantaa is an under-dog kinda place. It reflected, for example, in hockey, which I used to play a lot. When we played against Espoo, it had emotion! The deal is, in fact, that Vantaa-people hate people from Espoo! [laughter] People from Vantaa are somehow more real than Espoo-citizens or people from Helsinki, more honest. If a Vantaa-person doesn't have money, then for fuck's sake they don't have money, they won't try to hide it, like Espoo-people do. Indeed, Vantaa is the place to be. Or at least the Tikkurila hoods, Myyrmäki on the other hand... We totally aren't any kind of a big and happy family in Vantaa. [laughter] East- and West-Vantaa are completely different things, kinda like the Bronx and Brooklyn. Actually I'm from Ruskeasanta, and for example Ruskeasanta's or 'Rusa' 's Shell (a gas station) has been a significant place in my life. We used to go there with friends on our mopeds and drink coffee and tea, fool around, bully vocational school students."
Tumblr media
Q3: Wait a minute, you've gone to vocational school, too, but you aren't a student who drives around Tikkurila, around the local blocks?
"I haven't really driven there, maybe a couple times. But I haven't been serious about it in that way. I've never been a car-person, more of a moped-person, and that moped I liked more to tune and decorate, than to drive. I painted, tuned and tinkered with it. I, for example, melted Legos on the covering so I could get more plastic on them - no-one could ever guess, what color moped I'd come to school with."
"In my opinion, vocational school was more of a lifestyle than one going to vocational school. Students drove from gas station to gas station and went to Jumbo (a mall) with driving gloves on. I would rather stay at home to sleep and play Habbo Hotel. Sometimes I'd go to meets (meeting organized by youth to come show off their mopeds), and those were fun, but to those, too, we went with a few friends to laugh at the other dudes. [laughter] If I would now go to Rusa's Shell, I hope people would react to me positively. I'm still nevertheless on their side.
Tumblr media
Q4: What kind of memories do you have from Vantaa's Tulisuudelma (a pub, restaurant and music venue)?
"There I didn't go a lot. I was more often at Porkku (Pormestari, a nightclub that has since closed). The few times I was at Tulisuudelma, I sang karaoke. Vesku's 'Hyvää Puuta', that was my favorite. But Porkku was, at least in my mind, Tikkurila's most popular bar. It was a bit like Pinkku (a restaurant called Pingviini), but the cooler guys went to Porkku. [laughter] Yeah, vocational school students went to Pinkku. It might be, that 'Cha Cha Cha' is about a night in Porkku. There I have my first bar-memories. It became my own little home, where all the friends in town came to."
Tumblr media
"'Cha Cha Cha' represents dancing, and dancing represents freedom for me. That, that you have to be able to not be afraid to dance without thinking what the others think, even without drugs. You can see it as a drinking song also, I don't care about interpretations, but to me, it represents a lot more also. I want to encourage people to break free, because it's not about how well you can dance, it's about how you carry yourself. I'm not the most skilled singer, rapper or artist. But I believe in this thing, this madness, and I put 150 points on it. It creates the aesthetic, that he is just crazy and a star, even though really I'm just a regular dude from Vantaa."
Tumblr media
Q5: The song lasts 2 minutes and 55 seconds. Because of those shy of a three minutes you'll soon go on a long trip abroad to perform. What does that feel like?
"As a thought it's damn crazy. How much work - hours, days, weeks, months - and then it's over. Those are probably my life's most important 2 minutes and 55 seconds. I think, that Käärijä is going on a little trip, does what he does best and it goes just the way it is meant to go. Everything doesn't even need to be so fucking thought out and perfect. It needs a bit of improv, my own style. Because I don't like to be bound."
Tumblr media
Q6: You're a pop-star and many people have put a lot of money into your career. Isn't it inevitable, that in some way, you are bound?
"Yeah, that's exactly true. I've had had to work on that. I avoid it, when people tell me things and try to get me to do stuff, that I don't stand behind. It's been hard learning to say no, but it has been a necessary skill. Those people do see Käärijä as a product. It feels like a crazy thought - I'm like a walking billboard. But I'm a human and I have to do my own stuff, my own values, and not be with a note on my forehead saying 'buy this' or 'I'm selling this'."
"I've gone along with a couple things, but those have been the kind that benefit me. I want to rip out everything from those guys - the record label, ad-collabs and everything, and secure it that I'm not being fucked over. This is a rough business. People want a piece of Käärijä, which they can benefit from, so I have to be really alert. And not everything can be measured in wealth. For example, I've done stuff for charity."
Tumblr media
Q7: Many of the stories about you are headlined "Jere from Vantaa", and that's the way you seem like: a nice basic dude. How does that nice basic dude handle all that hassle?
"At the beginning, not so well. I'm humble, and I still have a lot to learn about a certain type of roughness. You have to know your value and value yourself. Who am I, where do I belong, what do I want from life - I think about these and develop all the time. But it's not easy when the big bosses come to say how things are. Then you just have to stay tough and argue against them."
"The piss hasn't got up to my head, because I'm not 20 anymore. If all this had happened at that age, I would most definitely be an asshole. I can differentiate Jere from Käärijä. If on the streets someone films me, or someone sends me suggestive messages on instagram, I know that those are meant for Käärijä, not Jere. They don't really even know Jere, in a way."
"Jere sometimes wonders on red carpets abroad 'why am I here?'. It sometimes feels like a ridiculous circus show - even though I obviously enjoy it and value it. Byt my morals lie elsewhere. I don't appreciate people if they have some great job and money, that doesn't interest me at all. People shouldn't be seen as products, but people should be seen as people and appreciated the way they are. That's why it feels so weird when people go nuts sometimes about this Käärijä-thing, start to cry when they see me. In Madrid one guy fainted because they saw me! It was at the same time like wow, we had created something that had caused this kind of a reaction. But at the same time I think 'what the fuck just happened to you?'."
Tumblr media
Q8: What sort of a relationship does Jere have with Käärijä?
"A really good one, mainly. We have a lot in common. In a way I'm a Käärijä-fan because I have to like the thing I'm doing, and in my mind we're making the best shit in Finland ever. But sometimes, when there's so much of this Käärijä-stuff, I'd like to whack that Käärijä: every time I come home and look in the mirror, there that bowl-cut is. Then I miss it, when I could go as Jere to the shop and be Jere to the people and not everyone would circle around Käärijä: how are you, how are you managing, how's the gigs, how's the music - fuck it. Let's talk about the weather!"
"Käärijä is also an armor. If someone asks to put on the bolero and go lay around for those photos, Käärijä will do it. Jere might not. With Käärijä I'm able and not afraid to do things. But the way that everyone right now wants to benefit from Käärijä, is of course sometimes heavy - and that's Käärijä's fault! He fucking did it! [laughter]"
Q9: If you could choose anyone to go in a sauna with, living or dead, who would you choose?
"That's a tough one. I'm a fan of Rammstein like crazy and I can relate to (the singer) Till Lindeman. But they say he's a really stiff guy. We probably wouldn't have a lot of conversation in the sauna..."
"If Jesus is really a real person in history, I'd maybe choose Jesus. I'd like to discuss with him: what all did he do, what kind of a guy he was. I'm really interested in that. Was he a regular fellow like all the rest of us?"
"I believe, that in all of us, there lives a tiny Jesus. I mean that I don't believe we're just a brain and a lump of meat. We're so much more. I don't necessarily mean supernatural things, but that there's something else, something that we can't reach with our level of consciousness. I don't believe in coincidences. There's always a reason why things go this or that way."
Tumblr media
Q10: Do you have some secret or habit that you're embarrassed about so much that you wouldn't want to tell of it to anyone?
"I don't really have skeletons in my closet like that... Well, this is a bit dumb, but the thing that I'm sometimes afraid to do, is: I like to put ketchup on everything. I put ketchup in meat soup, too. Once I was in a fancy steak restaurant, a great steak in front of me, and I thought, damn I'd kill for some ketchup now. But there were people around, certain type of steak enthusiasts, that I couldn't do it, because people would've judged it really hard. Yeah, maybe it's about being from Vantaa! [laughter]"

I know for a fact that Kid!Tenko would constantly try to break our relationship with Toshi,what are some things he would try to do,but most importantly,how would he react when he ultimately fails to break us up and we end up getting engaged? Maybe us even getting after him about his attitude and actions against Toshinori?
omg yesss the family drama would be INSANEE and im here for it, anw here's some headcanon thingies!!
Platonic yandere son!Tenko x Mommy!reader x Boyfriend!Toshi
In the au I did, Tenko met Toshi when he was in highschool, but for this headcanon imagine he meets him as a kid, boy is FERAL
Kid!Tenko is absolutely insane from the moment he meets him, actually charging at Toshi and attacking him
Of course you do everything you can to stop him, holding him like a little chihuahua and apologizing endlessly to Toshi
"I'm so sorry Toshi! Tenko is actually a really good boy, I don't know what's gotten into him.." All the while Kid!Tenko is struggling to get out of your hold and disintegrate Toshi
Toshi laughs and rubs Kid!Tenko's head, only to make him scream and struggle more in your hold, like the little gremlin he is. "It's okay sweetheart, young Tenko might just be nervous!! We'll meet again next time little one :D"
You HAD to carry Kid!Tenko all the way home because he wouldn't let go of you and he wouldn't stop crying
"Are you gonna leave me mommy? Why are you with that guy?? He stinks.. Do you hate me mom?? Do you like him more than me??" and your heart is gonna BURST. You keep comforting him telling him you will never leave him.
You decide that maybe exposing him slowly to Toshi would work, boy were you wrong..
Literally every time he sees Toshi all he sees is red and he immediately starts throwing tantrums that you never see him do at home.
You would start questioning your relationship with Toshi (like how Kid!Tenko planned) but Toshi would comfort you, being the best boyfriend there is you just can't give this up, you also think he would make an amazing father for Kid!Tenko
Whenever Toshi is over at your house, Kid!Tenko would place little lego pieces on the floor for Toshi to step on.
You would scold him for all the little evil things he does, but Toshi would always dismiss it as just some pranks of a kid
BUT its a different story once he enters high school, boy he did not changeee, he even became more unhinged
He became somewhat aggressive, to his classmates that talk smack about you, random men and women looking at you in the street and Toshi.
Boy has a grudge 😭
You thought their relationship will get better as Tenko grows up but it got worse
You finally had enough when you caught his hand as he was going to slap Toshi with five of his fingers
"TENKO I HAD ENOUGH OF THIS!!! All Toshi did was be a good father figure to you and this is what you do??!!" "But-" "NO BUTS!! Go to your room!!"
Once he was in his room he heard you crying which broke his heart, he never wanted to hurt his mommy. Its all that son of a bitch Toshi's fault. He was telling Tenko that you guys were engaged, and he would finally have you all for himself, lock you up in your new home without Tenko, which made Tenko want to kill him right there and then. He had to come up with a plan
You really were clueless. Little did you know Toshi was a yandere for you as well.

Online Matchup 3
Summery: Y/N just wanted to study and head home for some sleep, to bad the night in Gotham has different plans. Now all they want to do is see the one person who's been on their mind since they started talking. Question is, will Jason agree?
Warning: swearing, fluff, it gets a little angsty, comfort, a sprinkle of gun violence, a mugging.
A/N: I got it done by Friday. I did not think I could do it, but I did. I’m not sure part 4 will be up, but I will be taking the next week to try and finish other projects. If there’s anything you’d like to, let me know. Uh, this ended up being over 6k works, I hope you enjoy! Feedback is welcome.

Jason How do you know this?
Y/n Rumors mostly Guess that’s why the cops won’t do anything But I don’t think they’re rumors I know some of the students that are missing Most are on the top of their classes Some are scholarship students, they wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize it
Jason Damn My brother’s a cop, I could get him to look into it?
Y/n You’re brothers a cop in Bludhaven What do you think he can do in Gotham?
Jason How do you know that?
Y/N Jason, we’ve been talking for awhile And sometimes when you complain about your brothers, you let information slip past. Not that I mind, everything you tell me I keep to myself But you need to pay more attention to what you’re talking about
Jason Right, sorry I forgot about that

Jason …no
Y/n Everything okay? Er, you don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to it’s fine

Jason I guess I’ve been having nightmares lately 
Y/n About when you died? Allegedly 
Jason … Don’t know if I should be impressed that that’s where your mind jumps to or not
Y/n It’s a gift
Jason But yeah, that’s what they’re about Someone found me after, and took me in and raised me for a couple of years And then coming going back home It’s a lot I guess Sometimes I feel like I’m broken

Jason Ouch
Y/N Did you know that the library I’m at is open this late?
Jason Why?
Y/N College students needs books
Jason Yes But you can take them out and bring them home
Y/N I left my library card at home so now I’m stuck here with the book I need until I’m done
Jason See, I want to feel sorry for you But something’s holding me back
Y/N I can see the compassion from here Anyways I should go home soon
My phone’s about to die and I don’t have my charger either, you typed out and before you could hit send, you were met with your reflection on a black screen. “No,” you whined, slumping back into your chair. “It’s fine. I’ll just use my laptop, it should work.” 
Sitting up straight, you reached over to wake your computer up, you were met with the same fate as your phone. “No, nonono,” you muttered, frantically searching your backpack for your laptop charger. When you couldn’t find it, you dumped everything on the table, hoping you were just blind. But it wasn’t there.
You groaned when you came to the realization that luck wasn’t on your side tonight. 
Sighing in defeat, you made a note of the books you were using and the pages before cleaning up the table. As you stuffed your backpack with your things, you took a quick glance at the clock on the wall and cursed. If you don't hurry now, you’ll be late for the last train for the night.
If there’s one thing you hated most about Gotham, it was walking home really late at night. And the last you wanted to do was that, also you didn’t want to make Jason worry.
With the rest of your stuff hazardously stuffed into the backpack, you raced out of the library hoping to make the last train.
Jason You good? Home yet? Is everything okay? Hellooo? What happened? Are you safe?
Nothing. There was no response and when Jason tried to call you, it went straight to voicemail. No matter how many times he called, it always yielded the same result.
Jason is not worried. He knows you're busy with your project. Maybe you misplaced your phone while talking to someone. Or you’re already on your way home and need to concentrate on getting home. He vaguely recalls you saying you take the train to and from school.
Lighting up his phone to check the time, he nodded to himself. Yeah, that was it. You were just busy and on your way home. Jason’s not worried, he’s not.
“You okay there Jay?” Dick asked in concern, “you look a little worried there.”
Okay, so maybe he’s a little worried and maybe a little scared of what could potentially happen. In Gotham…At night.
“Yeah, I’m fine,” Jason lied, trying to push images of you hurt away. It didn’t help that there was this group out there kidnapping college students. For what, who knows. Jason only hoped that you didn’t get mixed up in it. 
Dick leaned in front of him and poked Jason’s forehead. “Are you sure? Your brow is pinched like you ate something sour,” he commented and Jason pushed him away with a scowl.
“Maybe he’s worried about his new friend,” Tim sang from the Bat computer. “It’s awfully late for a college student to be out in Gotham.”
Jason whipped his head around so fast, he was surprised he didn’t get whiplash. “How the fuck do you know?! I haven’t told you shit.”
“I’m a detective, Jason, I detect,” Tim pointily said, pressing buttons on the keyboard before a file with pictures of you showed on the screen. “Gotta say, they are kinda cute.”
“Why are you spying on them?” Jason asked, trying to keep his voice even. He was pissed he couldn’t have something in his life to himself. But his nosey siblings had to meddle in his life, love life too. It's like they have no life outside of fighting crime.
“I was bored,” he replied as Dick made his way over to the computer. No doubt curious on what Tim found.
“Don’t you have cases to solve?”
Tim shrugged, clicking through photos of you, which only served to piss Jason off even more. Why is it that he wanted to slowly get to learn more about you, that his brothers decided to do a deep dive without his permission? Times like these made him wish he stayed dead. “Your love life is more interesting at the moment.”
“Well, you can fuck off then,” he said, grabbing his Red Hood helmet from the nearby table and put it on.
“Where are you going?” Dick called over the roar of Jason’s motorcycle.
“Anywhere that’s not here,” he answered and sped off.
He had meant to drive aimlessly, but soon he found his way towards the library you were currently studying in.
He couldn’t get the images of you hurt out of his mind, and he convinced himself that it was fine to make sure you were okay. Otherwise, he’d be drowning in worry.
As he drove, he heard a cry for help. He almost dismissed it, thinking that someone who was on patrol would help them. But with his bike in idle, he heard it. Granted, the last time he heard your voice, you were all nasally with a hoarse voice from a sore throat. But he recognized you’re voice anywhere.
Parking his bike, he unholstered his gun and slowly made his way to the alley that your voice came from. Peeking his head around the corner, he saw you fighting with someone over your backpack. You held your own for a while, and Jason could only wait until there was an opening.
Was there a little part of him that wanted to see you fight? Maybe. but he doesn’t want to think about that now.
“Let go you asshole,” you grunted, pulling your backpack hard enough that the mugger tripped forward. Which gave you the time to kick him in the balls, hard. Jason winced at the impact and the mugger staggered backwards with a groan and you successfully gained back your bag. “Ha!”
“You bitch!” he yelled and lunged towards you. But before either of you could do anything, Jason surged forward and shot him in the leg. The both of you screamed, you at the sudden noise and the mugger at the pain. Without looking to see who was there, you ducked behind a dumpster, out of harms way.
Clever Little Bird, Jason thought as he stalked towards his prey. “Your mom ever teach you manners?” Jason asked. The mugger shook his head and begged Jason not to kill him. Jason was tempted too, but an annoying voice in the back of his mind, who sounded suspiciously like Bruce, whispered, don’t kill.
“Nah, I’m not gonna kill ya,” he grumbled and waved him away with his gun. “But if I see ya again, I ain’t making any promises.” He took it as it was, and limped away as fast as he could. Jason watched as he disappeared before holstering his gun and turned around towards you with a frown. You were curled in on yourself, hugging your bag tight.
“Hey,” he said softly, reaching out to tap you on your shoulders. With no warning, you quickly spun around and hit him with your bag. He winced as it collided with his chest, surprising him.
“Oh my god!” you exclaimed once you realized who he was. You dropped your arms from the next attack Jason had no doubt would have followed through. “I’m so sorry! I didn’t realize it was you.”
“What are you packing in there?” he grunted as he rubbed his chest, “fucking bricks?”
“Textbooks,” you answered sheepishly, hugging your backpack to your chest. “I’m really sorry I thought you were someone else.”
“No worries, I ain’t mad,” he said with a smile. Though you couldn’t see it given the helmet. “Hellva reflex though. Not many would fight back.”
You shrugged, tightening your grip on the backpack. The adrenaline must be wearing off, Jason noted. You were starting to shake. “What can I say? My flight or fight kicked in and there was nowhere to run.”
“Still,” he said, taking the moment to study you, and wishing he had shot the punk when he clocked the bruise forming under your eye. Other than that, there was nothing of note to worry about. Physically at least. Emotionally, he had no idea where your mind was at. “Are you doing okay?”
“Uh maybe?” you said, unsure yourself. You took a deep breath to calm yourself but it came out shakily. “I don’t know. I will be, once I’m home though.”
“Need a lift?” Jason offered, catching you by surprise.  You lifted your head to look at him, eyes narrowed. As if you were trying to see under the helmet. He stood there and waited. Eventually, you shook your head. Disappointment filtered through Jason but he pushed it down.
“Thanks, but I’m just down the street. Don’t think anything else can happen between here and there,” you said and Jason’s heart leaped at all the possibilities of what could happen.
“You’re gonna jinx yourself if you keep saying stuff like that,” he pointed out. You only shrugged and gave him a smile that made his heart skip a beat.
“I’m sure an angel is looking out for me,” you said, getting enough courage to pat him on the chest as you walked past him. “Be seeing ya, Red.”
Jason stood there for a moment and shook his head with a smile. You sure were something else. Though it was a short distance to your place, it didn’t stop Red Hood from following you until you made it to your apartment. Even then, he stayed on the roof adjacent to your building, waiting for your message saying you were okay.
You stood in front of your apartment door, keys in hand and frowned. With the adrenaline completely out of your system, and finally being alone, your mind raced with the events that transpired over the last couple of hours.
You had managed to make the last train and the journey was uneventful. It wasn’t until the walk home that your luck turned bad.
You were so focused on getting home that you didn’t notice the guy following you until he grabbed your backpack. You fought, Red Hood showered up surprising you and talked before going home.
You blinked at the memory. If you weren’t so in your head, you’d be giddy that you actually talked to Red Hood. You talked to Red Hood. What the fuck? You’re not even sure if you flirted with him near the end or not. But you were still processing everything.
You shook your head, trying to get out of it. You didn’t want to go inside. Going inside meant being alone, alone with your thoughts and that’s the last thing you wanted.
What you wanted was company, what you wanted was someone you haven’t even met yet, yet you knew you’d feel better after seeing him. You wondered if you called Jason, if he would pick up and ask to meet up. It couldn’t hurt to try.
With a half-baked plan, you finally unlocked the door. The first thing you do is plug in your phone, the second is to shower.
You wanted it to be quick, the faster you're done the faster you can leave the apartment. But you’re not sure what happened between grabbing your clothes and now. You just know that when you come to, your hair is wet and dressed in your comfortable clothes, and you find yourself standing in front of the mirror.
You feel better, if only a little.  You wince at the bruise and you could cover it up, but you’re tired and you don’t want to stay here any longer than you already have. Instead, you bushed your hair and leave the bathroom.
With your phone half charged, you grab it and your keys and wallet before leaving the apartment. As you walk towards the elevator, you open up your phone to see a few missed calls from your sister and Jason, and some texts from Jason asking if you’re okay. You made a note to call your sister in the morning and tried to ignore the guilt at seeing the messages from Jason. You pressed the button for the elevator, your thumb hovering over Jason’s name.
Maybe calling him will be a mistake, Despair whispered in your ear.
Or, maybe it’ll be the best thing in the world and you won’t regret it, Desire countered. And hope bloomed a little in your chest. With that, you pressed the call button without much thought and brought the phone to your ear.
One ring, you step in the elevator as you begin to second guess yourself that this was a bad idea. Second ring, you press the button for the lobby, starting to panic. Maybe he won’t pick up. Half of you hoped. By the third ring, you're off the elevator and almost hung up when the call connects.
“Little Bird?” Jason answered, and the grip on the phone tightened. You really didn’t think he’d pick up, and he doesn’t sound tired. For how late it is, anyways. If anything, he sounds awake, like he was waiting for something.
Guilt rears back into your stomach again when you realize he was waiting for you. Tears start to pool in the corner of your eyes, and you blink them away. You didn’t want to cry, that was for later, when you're curled up in a ball in bed. Waiting for sleep that you know will never come.
“Hey, you still there?” Jason asked, voice soft as if he knew that’s what you needed right now. Your heart warms at the person you’re slowly falling for. You clear your throat and hope your voice sounds normal when you answer.
“Hi,” your answer is a whisper, and you find yourself you don’t care.
“Hi,” he greeted back and you could hear the smile in his voice. “I’m surprised you're still awake. Figured you’d be in bed by now.”
"Yeah, me too. But I’m too wired to sleep,” you said, forcing your feet to move. You start walking out of the building and towards your favourite café that’s near your place. “Surprised you’re awake too. Still helping your brother?”
You’re so engrossed with your conversation, that you don’t feel eyes on you as you walk. And Jason hoped to keep it that way. “Nah, doing my own thing before going to bed. Surprised you called though. Usually, you shoot me a message.”
You stall for a moment, almost tripping on your feet, before walking again. “Er, yeah. Sorry I just…I don’t know.”
“You don’t have to say sorry. I don’t mind talking either. Besides, you've voice is music to my ears," Jason said, and you try not the blush with how casual he says things like that. "So, what’s up?”
You’re quiet for a second, chewing on your lip before blurting out the question, “do you want to meet up?”
You’re met with and you close your eyes at your stupidity. “Sorry,” you started, “that was stupid. You don’t have to if you don’t want to, I get it. It’s fine. Plus, it’s super late, like two in the morning late. And we should be sleeping but the thought of being alone right now scares me. And I don’t want to be alone and I just really need some company. And I thought why not Jason? I wanted to meet him for awhile and I’ve now realized it was bad timing and-”
“Are you sure?” Jason interrupted your rambling and you couldn’t be more thankful. You were positive you would big yourself in a hole you couldn’t get out of if you kept talking.
“Sure about what?” you asked dumbly, as if you forgot what you had just asked him. You’ve reached the café and stood in front of the door, peering in.
“That you want to meet up,” Jason said with a chuckle.
“Oh, uh yeah, I am sure,” you said with a nod. “I mean if that’s okay with you?”
“Sure is,” he said, “can I ask what brought this on?”
You're silent for a moment, debating whether to answer him or wait until he’s here to say. But you think of the bruise under your eye and you think it’s better to tell him now. “I, um, almost got mugged on my way home. He didn’t get my stuff, but he did clock me in the face. Could be worse though, but I don’t want to be alone right now.”
“Shit,” he breathed out, “are you okay?”
“Sorry,” you mumbled to the couple coming out of the café and stepped aside to let them go. You shrug even though he couldn’t see you. “Like I said, it could be worse.”
“Don’t. Don’t downplay what happened to you,” Jason said softly, “anyone would be shaken up after a mugging. You’re allowed to not be okay, sweetheart.”
The simple sentence is what breaks you, and you start letting the tears fall down your cheeks. “Damnit,” you mumbled, wiping your eyes with the sleeve of your sweater. “Have me crying in public Jason, not cool.”
“Sorry sweetie. Where are you? I’ll get there as soon as I can.” You rattle where you are and you can feel Jason’s smile through the phone. “I know the place. Order me a hot chocolate and I’ll be there in twenty.”
“Try not to break any laws now, Jason,” you muttered, though you smile all the same. Knowing you’ll meet Jason soon has you in better spirits since the incident happened.
“No promises.” With that, you hang up and walk into the building. You tell the barista your fine when she asks about the bruise and order your usual and Jason’s drink with a cake and find an empty table. You find yourself in the corner by a window, making your way over and you set your order down and sit facing the door.
You’re scrolling through your phone while you wait, trying to keep yourself distracted. And it helped with Jason texting you updates on what’s happening. You find it endearing, and a little silly, but it keeps you from spiraling and you're thankful.
Before you know it, you hear a roar of a motorcycle driving past, and you look up just in time to see them part in front of the building. You watch as they turn off the bike and climb off before taking the helmet off.
Breath escapes you as you recognize who it is, and pictures didn’t do Jason justice. Jason’s pretty, and you like the little white strip he has in his hair. It suits him, somehow.
Lifting your phone, you take a picture of him fluffing out his hair and type out a message saying you see him before sending it to him. You watch as he takes out his phone, frowning a little at the message. He whipped his head up and scanned the building until his eyes landed on you. All you can do is wave, and your heart almost leaps out of your chest at the smile he gives you.
It's brighter than you imagined and you're okay with it. Your eyes follow him as he makes his way inside. You stand when he makes his way towards you and you smile as he stands in front of you.
“Hi.”
“Hi.”
There’s a moment of silence between the two of you before you start to laugh. Not a full belly laugh, just a light chuckle as if someone told you a joke. You’re not sure why you find the whole thing funny, but you do. Maybe you're too tired to fully process it completely.
“Are you okay?” Jason asked, a little worried. He took a step forward, arms moving to give you a hug, but stopped himself. Worried that you wouldn’t appreciate the gesture, scared that you might reject his touch. Your heart warms at the hesitation and you make the decision for him. Stepping forward, you wrap your arms around him and practically met into his chest.
After a moment of hesitation, Jason wraps his arms around you, hugging you tight. It's one of the best hugs you’ve ever had, and you can't seem to remember the last time someone hugged you that wasn’t family.
“I am now,” you whispered, blinking away more tears. “Sorry if this first meeting isn’t exactly to your expectations.”
“Nah, I wouldn’t change this for the world,” he said, leaning back a little. Snaking one hand to your chin, he gently lifted your face to look at you. He hissed a little at the bruising and you can’t seem to find yourself to be embarrassed about. Not with the look Jason’s giving you, like you’re the only person who matters to him.
“That’s good,” you mumbled, blushing a little with the attention he was giving you. You pull away a little, only to pull him to sit down. Your feet started to hurt and you needed to let them rest. Sitting across from him, you wrap your hands around your cup and let the heat seep into them. “You know, I almost didn’t call. Was too afraid you’d say no or something.”
Jason leaned over a bit and took off his jacket and you tried to not openly stare at his arms.
“Don’t think I could say no to you,” Jason said, taking a sip from his drink as you averted your gaze to his face. “But I’m glad you called, I was trying to work up the nerve to ask you to a coffee date or something. Something always stopped me though.”
“Well, we’re here now,” you pointed out, leaning over the table with a smile. “Nothing we can do but move forward.”
“Wise words coming from a lady who thought I was asking for a booty call,” Jason said with a smirk. You gasped at the reminder, and reached over to pull the plate of cake you had bought to share with him.
“You know, just for that, I’m not sharing this with you,” you said, and moved the plate closer when Jason moved to grab it.
“Now that’s not fair, Little Bird. It’s been a tough night dealing with my brothers all night, I need a little pick me up,” he said, trying to grab the plate from you again. You moved it just before he could grab it, and stuck your nose in the air.
“Guess you should have thought about that before insulting me, good sir.” Jason snorted, mock surrendering. You giggled and moved the plate back to the middle. “How was your night? Anything interesting happen?”
“Nah, not really. Turned out he didn’t really need my help, just said that to rope me in for family supper,” Jason answered, picking up the fork and stabbing a piece of cake before eating it.
“If you’re gonna be mean to the cake, I won’t share,” you threatened, trying not to smile when he gave you a look. “Family dinner huh? Can’t be all that bad.”
“It’s not,” Jason hummed, “I get to eat Alfred’s cooking and there are some siblings I don’t mind hanging out with. It can be too much sometimes, you know? Like they lived their lives while I was somewhere out there being raised by different people, you know?”
“Mm not really but I can imagine,” you said, smiling when he snorted. “But they’re trying, that’s all you can ask for. Question is though, are you trying?”
Jason shifted as you stared at him with raised eyebrows. “What is this? An interrogation?”
“Can be if you want it to be,” you quipped back. Following his lead as he leaned forward.
“If anyone’s gonna do the questioning, it’s gonna be me.”
“You think so?”
“I know so, Little Bird.”
The two of you stare at each other, waiting to see who cracks first at the challenge. You blink and you know you’ve lost. “Yeah okay. But you didn’t answer my question,” you reminded him, leaning back.
“Yeah I’m trying, just hard,” he answered and he took a moment to study you. “Are you doing okay? Not to be rude, but you look exhausted.”
You snort and rub your eyes only to wince when you touch the bruise. “I don’t know. I haven’t really had time to process everything properly.”
“How’d you mean?”
“Like I didn’t sit down and cry about it yet. When I got home all I wanted to do was leave. But I forced myself to shower but I think I blacked out or something, I don’t know. I don’t remember it. After that, I left my apartment as fast as I could and called you.”
“Which I’m glad you did, but now you have to take a moment and let it sink in. You can take it now, let yourself not be okay, I won’t judge. Hell, I’m probably the last person to judge.”
You gave him a sad smile and slowly slumping down into your seat, trying to hide from the mostly empty café. As if sensing what you’re trying to do, Jason gets up and moves to sit beside you, angling his body so you’re hidden from view.
A wave of fondness washes over you, and you think he can’t surprise you anymore then he already has. Taking a deep breath, you slowly let it out and close your eyes. Listening to Jason and let yourself not be okay.
The night plays like a movie behind your eyelids and you fight to keep it playing. You  feel all the emotions that you managed to push away hit you like a truck, making you tear up. You cover your eyes with your arm and feel movement from beside you.
But you're too embarrassed to look, so you wait until Jason’s right beside you.
“I’m going to hug you okay?” You hear Jason whisper close to your ear. You nod and almost flinch when his arms snake around your waist, but you don’t. This touch is warm, caring. The complete opposite of the mugger. You feel safe for the first time that night.
You relaxed in Jason’s embrace and balled your firsts in his shirt as you cried. He sat there, rubbing your side, whispering that you’re okay, that it will be okay, and waited until you were done. 
You sniffle when the sob has subsided but you don’t let go just yet. You’re exhausted, embarrassed that you ended up crying on Jason, and you're not yet ready to face him.
“You’re okay,” Jason murmured, squeezing you reassuringly. You only nod, moving slightly to wipe your nose with your sleeve. But as you move to do that, there’s a napkin in front of you.
“Thanks,” you muttered, taking it and blowing your nose.
“Feeling better?” Jason asked, moving slightly but he kept you in his hold. And you're grateful for it. His touch was something you could get used to.
“Yeah, much. I think I could sleep forever,” you joked, leaning into him you felt his chuckle more then heard it.
“Please don’t, I enjoy your company,” he said and you smiled. “I hope you feel the same.”
“I do,” you hummed, “I’m sorry for crying all over you. I think I got your shirt all wet and snotty.”
“Nothing to be sorry for. It was something you needed and I’ll gladly be your shoulder to cry on.”
Silence settled between you, and you closed your eyes feeling the need to sleep. The two of you stayed like that until Jason could feel your body relax into sleeping.
“Come on, I think it’s time for you to go home,” Jason stated, shaking you a little to keep you awake.
“Noooo,” you whined, pouting as you sat up slowly. “But I’m having a great time.”
“You need sleep,” Jason pointed out, collecting your garbage and standing to throw it out. When he came back, he put on his jacket and smirked as you stared. “We can always hang out another time. Maybe next time it won’t happen at three in the morning.”
“Promise?”
“Promise,” he answered, holding out his hand. You blinked at it before grabbing it and he helped you up. “Come on, I’ll walk you home.”
“You don’t have to have,” you said, quick to shake your head.
“Please? For my peace of mind,” Jason said as he walked the both of you out. “Plus it prolongs the time I get to spend time with you.”
Opening your mouth to argue, you stop yourself and feel the blush creeping into your cheeks. “Fine,” you agreed begrudgingly, though glad for the company.
The walk was short, you spent the time talking about anything that came to mind. And before you knew it you were standing in front of your door. Jason had insisted on walking you up, to make sure you didn’t trip on anything. He had claimed and you didn’t seem to mind.
You have thought about inviting him in, but sleep was calling you and you didn’t want to seem too eager.
“So this is me,” you said awkwardly, unsure how to say goodnight.
“I had a good time,” he said, smiling. You squinted up at him, only now realizing how tall he was. 
“I ended up crying.”
“You had a bad night, you deserved to cry after what happened to you,” he countered. “Like I said, I’m the last person to judge.” 
“I’m going to get that story one day,” you challenged, and he leaned down a little, smirking. Cocky bastard.
“I’m looking forward to it,” he said, and you gently punched him in the chest with a laugh.
“Text me when you get home?”
“Awe, you worried about me,” he teased. You rolled your eyes as you took your keys out and unlocked the door.
“I can unworry about you,” you said, swinging the door open. Before going in, you turned and gave him a hug, squeezing tight. “Thanks, for you know.”
Jason returned the hug and buried his nose in your hair. “Anytime. Glad you're feeling better.”
You stay like that for a moment before Jason lets you go. He cupped your cheeks and for a brief moment, you thought he might kiss you.
“Night Little Bird, see you soon.”
With that, he turned and walked down the hallway, leaving you feeling warm inside.
Walking in, you unlocked the door and immediately plopped into your bed, letting your body relax. Sleep pulled at you but you were determined to stay awake until Jason texted.
But sleep was just as determined and stronger, you fell asleep just as your phone chimed.
Jason I’m home

Punk Percy Jackson headcanons but by an actual punk instead of someone who thinks skateboarding is an aesthetic
So first off this will include my Pjo self-insert Lex de los Santos since i'm a book!Percy selfshiper(and Walker is my little guy so expect lots of appreciation for him on this blog too)and if you're gonna be hateful of that,please just scroll past thanks!Now lets get into it:
Always had the punk mindset as seen in canon by her being anti-authority,rebelling against all corruption she sees and being extremely protective and loving towards younger minorities
But was too poor to afford the clothes and piercings and such.Didn't bother him though since he cared more about acting and thinking punk than looking it
Thalia was his first real experience with the subculture headon and that's a big reason why he admired and was lowkey jealous of her along with a bit of gender envy
Goes to protests with and does charity work with Rachel
And she buys him a bunch of punk stuff(From punk bussinesses ofc,otherwise what's the point)
Learned to DIY so many things it's a running gag
Riot Grrrl and Mcr fan-Also not punk but stans Megan Thee Stallion,Ice Spice and Lo-Fi beats too.Also really likes Green Day!!
The specific types of punk Percy is are afropunk(i hc them as half afro-dominican and half black-greek),seapunk(NOT because of Poseidon but because of Sally)and either crustpunk or pastel punk depending wether we're talking her as a bigender transfem and a misc between masc and fem presentation or her as a super femme trans woman.Not for gender roles reasons obviously because that would be ridicioulous but i just think that their lives would be significantly so that leads to a few differences in personalities and tastes
Persephone Ameila has comics!Starfire hair and dyes her faded from gray to white streak sea blue to blend in,Perseo Isadore has dreads and keeps his as is because Lex finds it hot.Here are illustrations of them by @honeypotsworld and @leo-thecactus using bases from the Pjo graphic novels!!

His autism definitely contributes to how how he approaches punkness.Examples include how blunt he is in it and a funny one is that he loves googling the most bizzare ass sounding and/or looking foods to make and eat and calls it 'sticking it to the man' and Lex encourages and joins on both
Their patches jacket has spikes on the shoulders and pockets and frills around the collar and his patches are the dominican,autism and trans flags,the anarchy symbol and ones to represent his most important people-A black mermaid for Sally,a pink rose for Lex,a skull for Nico and a yellow diamond for Hazel.It has a good handful of pins and his collection is ever growing but his favorites are the cat one and the Riptide one Lex made him
Goes on estrogen but light dosages and for a short amount of time compared to full transitions and gets no surgeries.Wears makeup too(*Insert the putting makeup on your gf redraw meme but with Perlex*)and has a tongue ring,an eyebrow piercing and forward helix on both ears
Radicalized Nico and Hazel,who are now goth punk and pastel goth punk.The three of them and Lex are known as 'The Outcast Godlings' because of the usual treatment Hades and Pluto kids get that the first two were no exception to and Percy's and Lex's feelings of isolation and otherness even after getting to Camp Half Blood,all of which were thankfully resolved by the the end of Hoo and the begining of Tales of Dead Seas(My fansequel to it that happens instead of Toa and has them as the mcs)
Exclusively buys his video games and consoles and legos secondhand due to being anti-capitalism
Killed Luke in TLO not only because of being the hero of the prophecy but also because no actual punk wouldn't unalive a fascist who was also a serial ped0phile the second they got the chance.She made sure it was extra painful too and even had Nico use his soul erasing power we saw in BOO on him
Owns a pair of colbat blue and black demonias that Beckendorf got him which are a little tight on him now but he wears them anyway to remember him by
Them and Lex make clothes for Nico and Hazel with Sally's help and play the Team Parents role for them in general♡
Perlex is punk4punk but Lex is pastel punk and solarpunk!!They go on punk dates like going to concerts together in matching outfits and skateboarding and rollerblading in their opposites aesthetics board and skates and defacing public property together <3 Also Percy has the cocky flirty punk guy thing going on you usually see in male characters who are but it's a Lex exclusive

more autistic little mike……. please im begging.. Begging..
ANONNNN why are you me. autistic and little mike are such important headcanons to me so here are some thoughts on how his autism would interact with his littlespace >< also this isn’t really an x reader. there’s no mention of the reader at all. just pls let me be autistic about mike ok
◞♡࿐ (TW for mention and small description of self harm)
• his depression has caused him to fall out of love with a lot of his hyperfixations and special interests so being little feels like the only time he can really indulge in them
• with the help of people on here, i landed on some special interest headcanons!!! i think he really liked legos and airplanes when he was younger so that translates over to his littlespace
• vanessa finds the airplane that garrett had when he went missing and gives it to mike. he cries for a while every time he sees it but he grows used to having it around and plays with it when he’s little
• he also gave up his legos to abby when he thought he aged them out. but she does eventually figures out about his age regression and sneaks the box of them into his room one day
• along with his airplane and legos, he also draws and watches cartoons. he draws so many planes and could definitely specifically name the ones he draws. he read a book when he was young and just never forgot them
• I FORGOT ABOUT DREAMS. dreams are definitely one of his special interests and that translates over to littlespace too. he’ll always draw scenes from his dreams right after waking up from one. he thinks they’re super cool (or sometimes really scary) and he just has a huge collection of his dream art
• also like i said in my first little!mike post, i think he allows himself to stim more when he’s little. he represses it as much as he can when he’s working or with other people but when he feels safe enough to be little, he feels safe enough to stim too
• his stims are more tactile than anything; his hands always have to be doing or touching something. he flaps them when he’s excited or just doing something stimulating in of itself.
• he also rocks a lot, either on his feet or just his entire body. and this is a stim that helps him feel better when he’s having a meltdown or breakdown too
• speaking of meltdowns, they don’t happen too often because he Hates feeling weak. but they do occur when he’s little more often than not.
• (self harm mention and description here) it’s not like the happiest headcanon but I think he punches himself and bangs his head against walls when he’s having a meltdown. it’s sort of a stim but also self harm because he feels like he deserves it
• he doesn’t regress to too young, maybe around 10, so he knows what he’s feeling and he’s aware of why he’s feeling it so he’s just not always a happy little. but that’s okay
• he doesn’t have a lot of sensory issues tbh? when too many things are happening at once, he can feel overstimulated but it’s not often. he prefers the dark but doesn’t mind brightness. he doesn’t mind something that’s loud but he does get scared by a loud noise easily, but he can handle things like concerts. he’s kind of a picky eater and does get autistic about certain food (like having a comfort food or eating something once every day)
◞♡࿐
this kinda turned into me rambling about autistic mike sorry HAHHAHA I told y’all he was important to me. Anyway. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed <3 I have a lot of requests that might take me a bit to get around to but they’re still open and always welcome

@broken--bow my dear one, words cannot thank you for everything. How I wish they could. From your brain to my words. I hope I did it justice.
look at the stars. look how they shine.
Warnings: children witnessing dissociation, dissociation, grief. I swore I wouldn’t write endgame - but this is endgame with no death - snap happened but no one died.
Tumblr media
Summary: Nathaniel and Clint build a marble run. (3k)
.
Nate yawns.
The Saturday morning makes him grin as he sits up in bed and pads out of his room to find his parents.
Saturday sounds already in the kitchen, and he finds his mum and sister already awake and eating.
“Hey sleepy,” his mum greets him with a kiss on the forehead.
He smiles at her and sits at the table, watching his sister draw arrows and people, Nate steals a pencil to help her.
“Nate, no!” she groans as he starts to colour in.
“Hey buddy, come sit over here,” his mum guides, and he frowns, wanting to draw.
He moves down the bench seat, and twirls the pencil, the green colour moulding as it spins.
He does it again, before it flies out of his hand and hits Lila.
“Nate!” she exclaims, exasperated.
His mum looks at him, with the look she gets when he’s not quite in trouble, but on his way there.
He frowns.
“Come grab some pancakes.”
He’s guided to the bench again, and he picks up two, opting for chocolate syrup and sugar.
He gets strawberries thrown on his plate and he goes back to sit down, away from Lila who still seems annoyed at him.
He didn’t mean to.
He wanted to help.
“Where’s dad?”
“Soccer with Cooper,” Lila answers, “they’ll be back soon, cause mum needs to take us to Max’s birthday party and then she’s going to get —“
Nate’s stomach curls in jealousy.
“I want to come,” he says, his mum wondering over.
“Oh honey, it’s Max’s birthday, it’s for Lila and Cooper.”
He stands, pushing out his chair and pushing away his breakfast.
“Why can’t I go with you?”
“Because you weren’t invited,” Lila says, standing up, her voice loud.
“That’s not fair, I can go too, I know Max,” he argues.
“But you weren’t invited,” Lila argues back.
Nate crosses his arms.
His mum seems to see it coming, he bangs his fist on the table and tries to step forward to Lila. He’s done nothing right since he woke up, it doesn’t matter, he feels like he’s in trouble anyway.
He reaches out to push Lila, only to be stopped.
“Nate, stop.”
The boundary is clear and he pulls himself back.
“I didn’t even want to go,” he says, sticking his tongue out to stop tears as he runs away.
He hates being the youngest, the one who always gets left out.
He heads back to his bedroom and sits on his bed, kicking his Lego breaking it apart.
No one comes after him, and he thinks his mum must have taken Lila’s side.
Anger burns in him as he looks around his room.
It’s not fair.
He did want to go.
Doesn’t Max like him too?
He slows his body down, just like his dad taught him, taking a deep breath and squats to put his Lego back together.
It’s not the same.
A small knock on the door reveals both his mum and dad and immediately he feels like he’s in trouble.
“I’m sorry,” he starts, looking to them both.
“Oh buddy; it’s okay, it sucks that you can’t come too, but this is just for Lila and Cooper,” his mum starts.
“Plus, you and I get to hang together!” his dad finishes.
He brightens at that.
He feels he never gets to spend time just the two of them.
He goes to his cupboard and drags out a marble run he’s been dying to put together, but no one had wanted to do it with him.
His dad nods and smiles.
“Come down and say goodbye to Mum and the others, and then we’ll build it, bigger than any we’ve built before.”
Nate grins.
“Deal,” he says, high fiving his dad as hard as he can.
He acts predictably and shakes his hand out and then offers his hands behind him and Nate high fives him again; following him down the stairs.
Saying goodbye to the others is easy and his dad drags out the marble run.
Nate watches him and copies putting pieces together, careful in testing his favourite blue marble to make sure all the pieces were aligned and working.
Gently, he add the last piece, climbing on the chair and then carefully let’s his marble fly.
“It works!!!” he yells in glee, then turns around waiting to be told to be quieter. It doesn’t come, instead his dad whoops with him and they hug as Nate looks at the box of marbles grinning in anticipation.
“Can we..”
His dad laughs.
“Let’s put them all down!”
Dragging the box over, he looks at them and finds the colours he likes.
Blue.
Red.
Green.
Yellow.
The colours standing out against the clear ones.
“We can take turns,” Nate says generously.
He puts the blue one down and then hands his dad a red one.
He loves the sounds of it rolling.
“Can you hear it, dad? Can you hear it?”
His dad shakes his head but signs that he can see it.
Nate frowns.
He drags his dads hand over to the run, and pushes it on. He does the same with his hand and let’s the green one fly.
“I can feel it,” his dad smiles.
Nate grins.
Pushing the yellow marble into his dad’s hand, he looks away for a second to get more.
He doesn’t hear the click clack of the marble go down and he turns back around.
Nate freezes.
His dad is frozen too.
Fear and pain on his face.
At least that’s what he thinks it is.
“Dad?” he tries, his stomach dropping.
“Daddy?”
It’s clear he can’t hear him.
“Dad?” he tries again.
He’s staring at the yellow marble.
Nate tries to take it away, but the result is his father pulling away, closing his hand over it and dropping to his knees.
“No…” he hears him say, his voice angry and quiet.
“It’s okay, Dad,” he whispers.
He’s not sure what to do.
The world feels dark and his dad isn’t feeling well.
He thinks it’s his fault.
“I’m just going to call Mum, okay?”
Leaving the room, he stares momentarily at his father, his eyes still on the yellow marble as he touches it.
It’s like he can’t hear him.
The phone is where it always is.
Nate presses the buttons, just like Aunty Nat taught him so long ago.
“Mum!?”
He hears her pick up, but she doesn’t say anything.
“Mum??”
“Nate?”
It’s Cooper.
He doesn’t want Cooper.
“Get mum,” he asks, moving back to find his father in exactly the same position.
“I heard you were making trouble this morning,” Cooper laughs at him.
“Please, get Mum,” he asks again, on the verge of tears.
There’s something in his voice that makes Cooper hand the phone over.
His mum’s voice pushes him over the edge.
“Nate? Are you okay?”
He feels the first tear fall.
“Dad’s not… he’s stuck,” he gets out, trying to take a deep breath and then sits next to his fathers inert body.
“Dad?”
There’s no response.
“Hang on.”
He hears her say something to his siblings then her attention seems to come back to him. Slowly he reaches out to touch his father.
A finger.
Then another.
His dad is crying and he can’t help.
“It’s okay, Dad, I’m sorry,” he whispers.
“Nate? Are you okay?”
He puts his mum on speaker phone.
“Can you talk to Dad? He’s not talking. He’s crying..”
She’s silent.
“Am I on speakerphone?”
He nods.
“Nate?”
“Um, yes, he doesn’t have his ears in though.”
He watches his father carefully.
The marble still sitting in his palm.
“Daddy? Mum’s here. It’s okay, okay? I’m sorry,” he says, pushing the phone closer.
“Clint?”
Nate doesn’t listen to the start, he pushes the marble run away. It’s joy is gone.
He watches his father sit back at the sound of his mother’s voice.
He hears her talking.
He sits back down next to his father and draws on his hand, just like his dad usually does for him when he doesn’t feel well.
“Nate? Are you there sweetie?”
He nods.
His dad seems to be waking up, or coming back, it’s slow but there’s some signs of life.
“Nate?”
“Yeah, Mum, I’m here.”
“Are you okay?” she’s worried, he can hear it.
“I’m okay, I think… I think it’s my fault.”
“Nate, this isn’t you’re fault okay? Do you remember that Thanksgiving when Aunty Nat was here and she seemed to freeze at dinner? And you noticed, and told us she wasn’t feeling well?”
He nods. He remembers.
“But Dad already knew, he was already helping her,” he argues quietly.
“I know, but you’re going to help Dad until we get there, okay? We are on the way home.”
Nate nods.
“Can you open the window? Get a breeze in. Grab your drink bottle and see if Dad wants any, okay?”
Nate gets up and follows his mum’s ideas.
His bottle is next to the bag of marbles and again, he feels guilty.
“It’s my fault,” he says, voice shaking. “I gave him a yellow one.”
He doesn’t know the significance, but Copper was right. He made trouble. He couldn’t help it. It’s all his fault.
“It’s not your fault,” he hears his dad say.
His voice is quite and he pats the spot next to him.
“Sit with me,” he croaks, his eyes unfocused and hands shaking.
Nate obeys.
“I’m sorry, Dad,” he cries.
“Nate, Clint, we’re almost home, you’re going to hear the car.”
He does, the wheels on gravel and the heaviness in the air.
He feels the difference in the world.
Drawing on his father’s hand, he can’t look up at him. He doesn’t want to see his dad cry.
He also doesn’t want his dad to see him cry.
Nate hears the front door, the slow climb of his mum’s feet up the stairs.
The door opens slowly, but it’s not his mum through the door first.
“Natasha?”
His dad’s voice is still croaky, but there’s some movement in his body.
Nate rises with him, holding onto his hand.
Aunty Nat and his mum enter his room, and immediately he feels better.
There’s some else here to help.
They’re going to help his dad.
The three adults move to Nate’s bed, quiet voices speaking words that he doesn’t care to listen to. He doesn’t really want to stay either.
Leaving the room, he takes on last look at his mum holding his dad’s hand and Natasha holding his face in her hands.
It seems almost intrusive to be there.
Adult business.
Nate leaves.
Uncomfortableness in his guts as he feels unsure of what to do next.
He plods down the stairs to get some water, the snap changed everything. Everyone was different.
Everyone felt sad all the time.
His dad, his tattoos, his siblings, even his mum who was snapped with them.
He doesn’t know.
He doesn’t understand.
Nate fixes his laces, then heads outside to the swings.
Wishing that he’d been able to go Max’s birthday, he lets himself cry as he swings.
It’s moments before his mum comes out to him, and sits on the swing next to him.
“Hey buddy,” she opens.
“Scary seeing Dad like that, huh?”
Nate nods but doesn’t answer.
“He’s seen a lot of things that make him feel sad lately. It looks like you guys were building a pretty cool marble run.”
He takes a deep breath.
“We were going to take a photo to show Uncle Tony. Dad said he’d like it, you know, while he recovers.”
He thinks back.
“It’s my fault, I gave him the yellow marble,” he confesses with a hiccup.
His mum stands, and then stands in front of where he’s swinging, stopping him and crouching so she’s at his level.
“Sweetheart. That is not your fault. You are not responsible for your dad’s reactions okay?”
She doesn’t let him swing, even though he can’t look at her.
“Do you remember, we talked about somethings that make Aunty Nat sad? That there are some times that remind her of something she doesn’t want to think about? Dad has that too, sometimes he’s better able to hide it from you guys, but today, the yellow marble reminded him of something he wasn’t ready for.”
Nate finally looks at her.
“What?”
She looks to the ground.
“There was a mission to get us all back, do you remember Dad talking about it? He got to go to outer space, yeah?”
Nate nods.
He likes the story of the spaceship in outer space, with Rocket the Raccoon and the search for the stones to bring everyone back.
He digs his feet into the dirt.
“Was it something in outer space?”
His mum nods.
“There was something your Dad and Aunty Nat had to find, but to find it, they had to do something dangerous.”
Nate narrows his eyes.
“How dangerous?”
His mum swallows.
“Aunty Nat, technically… she died… so they could find it.”
His mum stands, and moves back to the swing.
“But mum, Aunt Nat is here, you went to pick her up?”
The swing in silence for a bit, and Nate watches the shadows of people in his room.
It seems his dad is more mobile, and Aunty Nat is helping.
She’s not dead.
“I know, but your dad didn’t know that when Tony brought everyone back, that she’d come back too. The yellow marble… it reminds him that she was gone for a bit.”
Nate nods.
He understands.
He does.
Sometimes he feels sad too, that he doesn’t know what to do with himself.
He sees Natasha and his dad enter the kitchen and he hops off the swing.
“Can I go apologise to him?” he asks, “tell him I didn’t mean it?”
His mum stands and gives him a big bone crushing hug .
“You have nothing to apologise for, okay? This is not your fault. None of this is your fault.”
She kisses him on the top of his head and they walk hand in hand back to the house.
“Mum?” he sighs heavily.
“Do you think Dad will want to play with me again?”
His mum looks down and smiles.
“I know he will.”
Nate enters cautiously, moving slowly, and looks for his dad who’s now making tea in the kitchen.
“Nate,” he greets, “I’m so sorry. Are you okay?”
He opens his arms and Nate hugs him readily.
He was so worried.
His dad, though still moving slowly, feels better, the world feels better. He lets himself get picked up and he revels in the constant touch and reconnection.
“Some chocolate milk?”
Nate nods.
“For me too?”
He grins at his aunt. Hopping down he hugs her too.
She feels different, somehow; than before the snap, and he doesn’t ask about the scaring on her fingers and how it travels up her arms.
It doesn’t feel polite.
Maybe his dad will tell him the story of Natasha’s scars and his own tattoos one day. Maybe he’ll request it as a bedtime story.
Instead he lets himself be dragged to the table, where Natasha seats herself next to him and they watch his dad make the hot chocolate.
“I’ve got to go pick up the others,” his mum calls and Nate nods and waves.
She kisses him, then Nat and then his Dad and leaves them all in the Kitchen.
“Dad tells me you made a cool marble run,” Natasha starts, and Nate shrugs. He wants to pull it apart and never play with it again.
“It’s so big and intricate,” his Dad calls, stirring drinks.
“Should we show Nat after this?”
Nate feels hesitant.
He’s proud of what they did.
But he doesn’t want to repeat what happened.
Leaving abruptly, he runs to to his room.
Yellow marbles.
He finds the bag and pulls them out, sorting them all into colours.
A knock at the door and his dad calls his name, maybe in worry as he tells him to hold on.
He does it quickly and systematically until he finds all the yellow and puts them into their own bag.
Maybe now they can play.
He opens the door to find both adults standing there - hot chocolate in hand, and he opens it wider to let them in.
“I put them away,” he tells them.
“You put what away?”
Natasha is always quicker.
“Yellow marbles?”
“You don’t have to worry about it when we play now, it won’t make you… sad.”
He gets another hug, this time sandwiched in between two bodies.
Nate grins. He likes doing right by people.
It’s how the others find them; sitting in the bedroom playing, rotating and putting marbles down the run, moving bits and making it bigger in some sections and smaller in others.
Til dinner they play and nothing happens.
He continually checks, making sure that his Dad or Aunty Nat don’t go anywhere.
They talk of nothing and lots of things.
His dad leaves to help his mum with dinner.
Lila joins them and then Cooper.
Nate feels the day pass and even though it started as a no good kind of day, he feels like it got better.
He tells Natasha, as he lays on his bed with her, watching Cooper change the marble run to be something else.
“I have days like that too,” she tells him.
“Not every day has to be all good.”
He nods.
She’s so warm and safe that he closes his eyes to the click clack of the marbles rolling.

SOUTH PARK SOCIAL MEDIA HEADCANONS
Hello, hi!! I am bored... so, let's write some headcanons hehe
Also thx for the support 🥺 I love you guys
STAN MARSH
This man hates tiktok and refuses to install it (it's canon ,,, I know) he would instead use some knock off version like YouTube shorts or Instagram reels 🤠
He would send Kyle tiktoks that were funny like 7 months ago which he JUST got to see on ig reels.
He probably has likes 4 posts on Instagram. Most of them are just pictures of his dog, his girlfriend and random ass pinterest pictures he liked
This man would have a pinterest board of goth music he liked back in his emo era
Also, when he was emo... he made a whole new instagram where posed as an e-boy
Just wanted you guys to let you know that.
He also watches call of duty and markiplier on youtube
his user is one that he made when he was 13 and he never changed it
It's stanfnaff
He deffo had a fnaf phase
KYLE BROFLOVSKI
We've all seen Cupid Ye by now...
He would totally have a tiktok account where he posts famous dances (renegade for example)
He expected them to go viral since his dance moves were pretty "smooth"
They never did
He uses Twitter just to comment on his friend's posts
Also to annoy Cartman by hacking his account
He doesn't actually hack him. His password is just CartmanBrahhh
This man never uses instagram
He never posted neither
His pfp is a selfie of him with ike
Since Ike isn't allowed to use Instagram, he uses his brother's account to watch updates of his favourite youtubers
Which explains why Kyle follows pewdipie lmao
His user is just his name with random numbers
Fucking kyleb8392
KENNY MCCORMICK
Let's be honest
He wouldn't even use social media
He has a phone but it's like all cracked and dirty and
It looks like a skinned iphone
He just found it on the street and surprisingly it worked
He has only instagram, youtube and pou installed
On Instagram his name is KensbigD and the only photo he ever posted is a very low quality picture of him
On youtube he watches sometimes commentary youtubers
His deepest darkest secret? Oh yeah, Kenny watches play doh egg videos
Overall he never uses his phone since he doesn't have wifi at all
He also has 18 pictures on his phone and it's memes that he finds funny and some others that already came with the phone which he never deleted.
ERIC CARTMAN
Cartman has every social media istg
He uses discord and Twitter to troll random people by making them think he's dreamsexual or some shit
His username on Instagram is Cartm.an9
He never posts anything
If he does it's probably just a really cringy photo with some filter he took of butters
On youtube he has a gaming channel ofc but has literally left it abandoned
I feel like he'd watch those videos of people eating really spicy stuff then saying NO REACTION
He tried to do it once
He went to the hospital for 4 days
CRAIG TUCKER
Craig would watch those 1 hour analysis video about a random movie
Or those summaries of weird kdramas
He watches cute guinea pig videos but never admits to it
His history is filled with minecraft videos that tweek watches every once in a while
On tiktok he would probably post those sarcastic memes like "Oh yeah galaxy is really big then theres you, a waste of space"
He used to have a secret account where he posted those cute partner videos with tweek
They went viral
Everyone saw them
Never again
His user on ig is probably just his name
Craig_Tucker
He posts pictures of things he finds cool
TWEEK TWEAK
Tweek watches those asmr videos on youtube
Also minecraft building and lego tutorials
Hes probably addicted to tiktok
His fyp is filled with those clickbait videos of "A METEOR IS HITTING THE EARTH SOON WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!!"
Craig tried helping him by creating new accounts and blocking certain words
They keep coming back somehow
He never posts anything on instagram
He has both of his cameras covered with black tape
He's scared of them watching him
On tiktok he posted only once and it's a video of him in class drawing on the table
His user is just TTWEKE29
I'm tired and I don't want to keep writing... but Wendy would totally watch daily vlog diaries of fit girls
