Heads/ Tails (Odo x female Reader)
Background: Odo and reader had broken up early in the Dominion war because the Founders sabotaged their relationship. Now that Odo is human, him and reader repair ties. Lwaxana tries to play matchmaker, But do reader and Odo get back together after a night of romance?
Warning: slight smut (like a paragraph or so, under 18, do not read) mild angst, happy ending
A/n: I have been on an Odo kick lately, and I’m living for it! Goodbye writer’s block. Inspired by the song “Heads/ Tails” by Hotspur
Word count: ~1,200
Tumblr media
This next song,” Vic Fontaine begins, “is ladies choice. Ladies, find a nice gent to dance with.”
I glance at Odo. “You want to? Just for the hell of it, I mean.”
Odo and I had been friends again for a while, but I wasn’t sure if he still had feelings for me the way I did for him. If nothing else it could be a dance among friends.
He shrugged, “why not?”
I take his hand as I lead him to the dance floor.
“You look lovely tonight,” Odo says. If I hadn’t known better, I would have thought I noticed a hint of shyness.
Heat rises to my cheeks as I blush. “Thanks, Lwaxana picked out the dress. You look nice, too.”
“Lwaxana said that I should wear this suit. I wasn’t sure at first though. I honestly wasn’t planning on coming here tonight,” he replies.
I smirk, as an idea dawns on me. “Neither was I. Ya wanna know something?”
“Hm?” Odo asks.
“If I didn’t know any better,” I begin. “I would have thought that Lwaxana set us up.”
Odo’s eyes widened slightly, “you think so?”
I shrug, “it’s possible.”
“And if she did?” he asks.
“What the hell, I’m just gonna enjoy it,” I smirk.
“I think I will, too.” Suddenly Odo dips me, and kisses me on the lips, before lifting me back up.
He blushes. “Sorry, I’ve always wanted to do that.”
“Don’t be,” I smile wide. I place one hand on his cheek, and the other on the back of his neck, and kiss him more passionately.
“Hey, kids, get a room,” Vic jokes at the end of the set.
Odo and I look at Vic, and then back at each other. “Sorry,” I giggle.
I take Odo’s hand and we run out of the Holosuite and head to my quarters.
*slight smut*
Odo unzips my dress, and admires me for a moment. “You are so beautiful.”
“And you are very handsome,” I say, placing a hand on his chest.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” he asks, leading me to the bed.
I nod, “I am if you are.”
“Yes, I’m sure,” Odo replies.
Odo is bigger than I remember, but I also have to remind myself that he is human now, so parts of him might be different. I gaze into his eyes as we make love, and feel so honored that not only was I his first as a changeling, but also as a human. We reach our peak at the same time, and kiss as we come down.
“I love you,” Odo says, breathless.
“I love you, too.” I smile up at him.
“Now, I know why you humans enjoy making love so much, I never felt such sensation as a changeling,” he says.
After we get cleaned up, he cuddles me until we fall asleep together. When I awake the next morning, he’s already gone. “Probably an early shift,” I think out loud.
I join Major Kira and Jadzia for lunch at Quark’s.
“So, where did you and Odo slip off to last night?” Kira asks.
“Nowhere important,” I blush and grin, stabbing around at my food.
Jadzia doesn’t even have to study me. “You did it, didn’t you?” She gasps.
I smirk.
“You did!” Kira states, surprised.
“So, how was it?” Jadzia asks.
I sigh. “Well, I’m not at liberty to disclose that information, but there’s a reason I didn’t want to eat here at Quark’s today.”
The three of us start giggling.
“What’s so funny ladies?” The sound of Quark’s voice freaks me out.
“Oh shit,” I mouth to the girls.
“Y/n, congrats to you and Odo,” Quark says smugly.
“Um, thanks. Have you seen him today?” I ask.
Quark shakes his head. “ No, I thought he was still in your quarters.”
“I gotta go, I’ll see you all later,” I reply. Where could Odo be? Was he ashamed about last night?
My anxiety rises, I didn’t see him in security this morning. I walk as fast as I can to his quarters, and ring the doorbell. After a few minutes of no response, I rush back to Security. To my relief, Odo is sitting at his desk. “I’ve been looking for you all day,” I state out of breath.
“Y/n, sit down, you look worn out,” Odo says.
I sit across from him. “I want to talk to you about last night.”
“So do I,” he replies. “I-I can’t stop thinking about it, it was wonderful, but I’m conflicted.”
I straighten up. “About what?”
He sighs. “I don’t understand how you can love me, after all that’s happened. I mean, I would give my last breath to be with you again, but would we work this time?”
I knit my eyebrows. “Odo, you and I both know that the reason we broke up was the founders. I have no reason to be mad at you. Look, I can’t promise you tomorrow, I can’t promise a perfect life, but I promise that as long as there is a heart in my chest, I will love you with every beat of it.”
“Look, I just need some time to think, last night was unexpected,” Odo replies.
My heart sinks. “Do you regret being with me last night?”
Odo shakes his head. “Not for a second. But this is a lot to process. I want to get back together, but I just have some thinking to do.”
I nod. “I want to get back together as well, but I want you to take your time, I don’t want to rush you into anything.”
Odo stands next to me, and takes my hand. “I’m grateful, but I promise I won’t make you wait long. I’ll give you my answer by the end of the night.”
“Computer, time?” I ask.
“The time is 00:00 hours,” the computer states.
I sigh, “midnight.” I bid my mind not to race. Maybe Odo just needed more time to think. I torture myself all night, tossing and turning, and jump out of bed as soon as my alarm goes off. I hurriedly get dressed and rush down to Security.
The door opens, but Odo is nowhere to be seen. However, on the desk is a vase of Bajoran moon flowers.
“Sorry for the delay,” I hear Odo say behind me.
I turn and see Odo standing at the entrance to Security, hands behind his back, smiling softly.
“Are these for me?” I ask.
He nods, stepping in. “Quark owed me a favor, but couldn’t get them in before midnight. The flowers came on the first cargo from Bajor around 300 hours.”
“Oh, Odo,” I hug him by the neck. “Does this mean-?”
Odo pulls away for a moment. “Y/n, I don’t know what the future holds, but I do know that life is better with you in it. You accepted me as a changeling, and you made my transition to human much more bearable. You’re the only person in the universe I could ever wish to be with. Will you be my partner in courtship, my girlfriend, again?”
I hug him again. “In a heartbeat. I love you, Odo.”
“I love you, too, y/n.”

Ranking Precures based off their design and concept Part 2.
9. Heart Catch Precure
Tumblr media
This is my favourite Precure season besides the original for the art style alone, despite putting it in the middle. I love the dresses and floral theme! The designs are so eye-catching although it does admittedly feel similar to Ojamajo Doremi.
There is the problem with Cure Sunshine being a trap character but not because she's willingly gender nonconforming. Feminizing GNC characters and framing nonconformity as a restriction when it's normally the other way around epitomizes traditional femininity as "natural" which is a harmful message for GNC girls and trans kids.
8. Star Twinkle Precure
Tumblr media
I'm biased for an alien themed Precure because that's right up my alley! All the colours look so nice together and the outfits are playful and fun to look at. They could've done more to really embody their theme though, I wouldn't think of space just by looking. Especially when the alien precures just look like normal people with different ears.
7. Kira Kira Precure A La Mode
Tumblr media
I love how much they committed to the idea and they went for two concepts here; pastry and animal! The actual outfits are so cute on their own but the pawed shoes and giant animals ears and tails are next level! It's probably Precure's funnest season in terms of theme. Zero subtlety and I love it.
6. Go! Princess Precure
Tumblr media
It's a lot to look at but I just love the extravagance of it all! The hair is extra, the dresses are intricate, and they execute the princess theme so well! All the details just add to the luxury of it all but nothing actually feels out of place for me.
5. Yes! Precure 5 (Go Go)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Their hairstyles have so much personality and the butterfly theme helps make them distinct. Both outfit versions scream classic Precure which I love and the Go Go ones are a simple but noticeable upgrade. It's an understated yet perfect step into group precures without doing too little or too much!
4. Fresh Pretty Cure
Tumblr media
I don't even know how to explain why I really love the appearance and style of Fresh Precure as it feels understated. It's just so cohesive to me, there's obviously a stylistic theme but the girls are still strongly distinct and character driven in their design. Their look feels original without relying on an obvious theme. It's hard to put my finger on but I just know that I love it!
3. Hug! Precure
Tumblr media
My favourite in terms of design, only knocked back because of its concept. They just look so gorgeous, I especially love the makeup! Their colour pallets are soft and they're just mesmerizing to look at. It kind of throws me off because they end up looking older than their actual age but I think this is the prettiest Precure line up!
2. Witchy Precure
Tumblr media
This is the most clever concept in Precure to me! I love the idea of having the same girls getting different magical girl outfits, it keeps it exciting! They also have very strong personalities that makes their individuality shine through their clothes while the witch aspect is never compromised. It just creates a lot of variety and cool ideas! All the outfits are stunning as well.
1. Pretty Cure
Tumblr media
Feels like it should be a given the classic would get first place, they were the blueprint after all. Maybe it is nostalgia talking but the outfits are still top notch! It feels knightly with the shoulder and chest pieces reminding me of armour but the frills and bows add that touch of flare and femininity. Cure Black's outfit has an edge to it that I don't see from other precures and her outfit feels practical on top of stylish! Cure White's is more graceful that captures an elegance that hasn't been repeated since. They contrast each other perfectly! Shiny Luminous has a princess look that suits the theme, even though she does stick out to me. Nonetheless, they still slap and can't be any more respected!

@killerhubby / cont.
Upon the other's... brags? That couldn't be right-- he wasn't necessarily bragging (normal people do not brag like that. it's unprecedented.) but, well-- what else could it have been? It was an odd sort of behavior, one that Kira wasn't too sure where to file it appropriately under. Perhaps it was best suited as a jest, with a splash of sarcasm... maybe? He wasn't sure.
There were small attempts at gauging for further reaction -- a subtle, little squint of the eyes, much like a feline would in an attempt to perceive -- but he didn't dare linger. If he tried a bit more, he's certain that that, too, would've gotten "called out" and tried to back him up into yet another corner.
He was polite and cordial but, for some reason or another, that only made the pit in Kira's stomach grow. Social interactions were always so, so dreadful. What made it even worse was that, currently, he couldn't see a proper way out.
Maybe if he were a little more tactical (he usually is, but with the picture he was currently painting for... him, it didn't feel right.) with just a pinch of affability, he probably could've walked away. There would've been no ceremony, no special effects, no fanfare-- no, none of that. All that he would've done, in that makebelieve situation, was walk away.
What else was there to say or do? Besides saying, "I have to go, now. Goodbye," obviously.
"... I see," he returned in a hushed voice, deciding to go with the safest of his options: acknowledgment. Recognition allowed for the situation to remain as "neutral", something that was simpler and far more easier for Kira to meld himself to. "It's nice, I think, that you've been keeping yourself, ehm... busy."
Mirage's so-called "hook" lay bare in front of Kira. He doesn't step near it nor does he even so much as think to look at it for too long. Its presence has been acknowledged and, henceforth, perceived. It felt a little too obvious, even as--
"Mm?"
--ah. He sees.
There's inklings of an uncomfortable sort of presence, the type where someone knew that something was wrong. But it also happened to be that type where said someone didn't know what exactly was wrong. All they knew was that something was wrong, and that it must either be eradicated or fixed. There was no other way around it, and Kira understood that feeling quite well. It was almost always an omen, of sorts, for a bigger scene in the future.
Was it a sort of prophecy? Not really. He knew, realistically, that it was just his anxiety.
"You... wouldn't happen to be talking about me, would you?"
He doesn't quite bite the bait (he bats at it, like a cat.) but does draw a bit closer. His steps were closer, in this hypothetical, and they were prepped for future, inevitable use. Both feet were spread apart, wide, just in case he'd need to suddenly bolt. For what reason, it was hard to say. Call it a hunch, honestly... a gut feeling.
Did women "flock" to him? He wouldn't quite say that. Sure, there were... handfuls, but he thought that sort of thing happened to men all the same. Women were, after all, fickle, little things. Each were individuals (haha, what a funny joke... his coworkers told a joke similar once. he didn't laugh, as much as he wanted to.) with their own, individual desire and preference. Kira couldn't help it if he checked all of the boxes for some of them-- he didn't ask for such heavy attention.
If he were given a choice, he'd have chosen to turn invisible for a few minutes once he left work back in those days. It'd have made his days less hard to get through, that was for sure. To be able to flick a switch and to, simply put, not exist for a few, necessary minutes? That sounded like heaven to the blond.
"I mean... in truth, if you are?" he began, still keeping his head turned away, as a snort crept out from the back of his throat. "I wouldn't disagree with you. I am pretty boring."
It's meant to insult him, he's sure but what if he wanted that? To be referred to as "boring" and, otherwise, unassuming? That he didn't deserve the adoration of several women (he thinks they were more attractive before they talked to him, anyway. most women, naturally, were like that.) nor the lingering gazes of men that followed after, almost as if to ask, "... Why him? That boring, old square?"
Mirage's words brought forth quite the possible conundrum. Was it not expected for a narcissist to want attention, to thrive off of it? Comparing them to the likes of someone who simply could not survive with their morning coffee, attention was a lot like caffeine, wasn't it? All of that had to have, at least, some bearing. Some grounds to stand on, because, well... what else was there to go off of? People barely have any concept of what "empathy" was nowadays, especially for those that were "wired" differently.
There's none of that, though, because he was over the motherfucking moon.
Everything had to be simplified, dumbed down. Instead of someone afflicted, it was someone who chose.
It made things easier to swallow, all the easier to stomach.
"Don't get me wrong, though... If you'll allow me to rewind a bit, and if instead you were talking about yourself, since that was the original topic--"
Tumblr media
"--you shouldn't speak so poorly of yourself. I'm sure those women have their reasons for finding someone so "boring" as you attractive."
Again, though, that was assuming that Kira was a narcissist. Which, of course, he wasn't. Of course not.
He was better than that.

Hello it’s been uhhhhhh like a thousand years and I’d rather be more active but lmao writing is hard and writing like fifty million WIPs is hard and living is hard but L MAO WE DOIN OUR BEST LOL
Anyways here’s a preview under the cut!
—————————————————
“I can’t believe the paperwork,” Noriaki snarked. He squinted at the computer screen from behind his reading glasses, which only emphasized the harlequin-like effect of the scars over his eyes. Battle scars from being a general field agent for the Foundation. But there has never been a hole through his stomach. “Stand User activity has increased by 10% and it’s such a pain.” He does not have to also mention that people have died, Tsuji Aya and Inspector Hisaoka. He’s postponing those reports for later when he can stop seeing Aya’s body exploding to dust whenever he closes his eyes.
Joseph groans and rubs a hand over his forehead. “Hermit’s not being too helpful, I’m afraid,” He tosses the next set of polaroids on the table. A bunch of them are shots in the sky with a blurry object that is most likely the photo of Kira Yoshihiro flying in the wind. More of them are shots of a man in a suit but not at any identifiable angle. Many of these seem to depict a busy commuter area, which didn’t help matters either.
Hierophant gathers the pictures and puts them in a stack of things that are meant to be scanned later. Kakyoin figures they can get some intern to do it—or maybe ask if Josuke or any of his friends were looking for a summer job and then have them do it. Maybe he could wrangle them into that service if he agreed to help them with some nice, healthy petty crime in a Kame-Yu department store.
“By the way,” Noriaki said, “When we find the arrow you’re going to take care of bringing it back to Liverpool, yes?” He clicks away an email ping—from his cousin Ryoko, he should check in on her since her university is probably on break soon—“You know, since Miss Anna’s absent and you’re the next senior member.”
“Ha,” Mr. Joestar said sardonically, catching the oblique insult about his age. “I’m 81 years young.”
“Mr. Caesar would beg to differ on the “young” based on how much he yells at you to keep up your Hamon better.”
“Anyway,” Mr. Joestar changed the subject, “Yeah, that’s why I’m here. Help find the arrow and then I’ll bring it to the vault with the others. It’s lucky Aunt Anna isn’t here…”
Noriaki actually peeled his eyes away from the computer screen to frown at Mr. Joestar, brow furrowed, “How so?”
“Ah, don’t worry it’s nothing,” Mr. Joestar waved, “Just the fact that this is kinda becoming a SNAFU. She’d probably be like, ‘This is what you get for not being thorough, Joseph!’ Wait, no, that’s what my mom would’ve said. Tough love sort, my mother. May death rest in peace from her.”
“Isn’t it the other way around?”
“I said what I said.”
“…Right, well, I’ll put you down for transport duty,” Noriaki typed away on the keyboard.
(What Joseph had actually been thinking about was the last time he’d taken an arrow to the Liverpool office. The Nijimuras’ arrow. When he’d given her the package she’d shooed a then-10-year-old Giorno off to play with Iggy. And yes, Iggy was deemed a responsible babysitter.
“You know, you seem to be settling down,” Joseph remarks after they’ve asked for an intern to grab some coffee after he delivered Aunt Anna’s lunch. “What with Giorno and all.”
“Oh, this shouldn’t be mistaken as retirement,” Anna corrected, “This is more, perhaps, slowing down for a little while,” she swirls her drink—her lunch—“It’s been a while since I’ve had to slow my pace to match this exactly with humans. Not since…Air Supplena, I believe. Your childhood.”
“You did have to travel a lot to track down Straizo and the Aja stones,” Joseph mused. “But I guess even now, you’re still searching for something. It’s just that with the arrows, there’s no time limit.”
“Oh, we should get them back soon either way,” Anna says, twirling the arrow in her hands distractedly. “And then we shall be once again united.”
“…What does that mean?”
Anna doesn’t seem to have heard, instead muttering under her breath. The arrow in her hand gleams.
“Aunt Anna?” Joseph repeats, more insistent.
Anna turns to him, blinking, “Yes?”
Somehow, Joseph thinks that she sounds more like herself with that response. There was some infinitesimal difference between this question and her last statement that Joseph was only now realizing he’d maybe seen before, but never really noticed it. Hermit Purple fidgets nervously in his soul. There is something about the Arrows and Aunt Anna.
“When you talk about reuniting, what does that mean?”
Aunt Anna blinked at him quizzically, “When I talk about what?”
“You—you just said—weird stuff about “reuniting.”
Her brows furrowed from behind her sunglasses, “I think you misheard me talking about putting this in with the rest?” She held up the Stand Arrow. It gleamed.
“…Sure, that’s probably it,” he says, backing down.
A clock rings out the hour, and Aunt Anna makes a noise like she’s remembered something, “Oh, I think the ice cream place I wanted to show you will close soon. Let’s go get Giorno and go there together,” she gives a soft smile as she leaves, humming as she goes. If Joseph didn’t know any better, the little tune had lyrics but he couldn’t really hear anything clearly. If he tried, he could hear something about rhinoceros beetles, maybe.
When she finds Joseph, Giorno, and Iggy, she seems a bit distracted until Giorno runs up excitedly to her asking for ice cream. They walk to the ice cream store and enjoy their treats on that sunny afternoon, and talk of plans for visiting Holly’s for Christmas. Very normal things. Yet that strange moment never quite leaves Joseph’s mind. He thinks that he should convince Aunt Anna to let some other people handle the arrows directly, he’s not sure why he has that thought, but it feels important. Very important.
Unfortunately, she leaves for Italy before he can really bring it up, and then comes the contact embargo to protect her cover, so the idea remains unmentioned.)

Friendship and Fate {03}
Summary: You and Stiles have been friends for years. You’ve loved each other since you were kids but when Stiles presents as an Alpha and you never present at all… well you’re not going to let him not claim his omega when she comes along.

(i know that was very specific i have so many ideas but can’t write for my life💀) also i life your work!- you deserve so much more recognition!
AN I am so sorry it's shorter than the others but it just felt like a good place to end it?
<<Prev || Friendship and Fate Masterlist || Next>>
Tumblr media
Eyes opening, you attempted to stretch, only to discover that you couldn’t actually move. Just as panic was about to sink in, your foggy brain reminded you that you were sharing a bed with Stiles which meant it was his arms around you.
You were half tempted to roll over, snuggle into his chest and go right back to sleep but the smell of the ocean air and the soft sound of crashing waves reminded you that you were not, in fact, at home but on an island for the pack bonding trip.
Slowly, carefully, you moved tried to move Stiles’ arm from your so that you could go and get ready for the day but you froze when you heard Stiles groan behind you as he pulled you flush against his body and nuzzled into your neck.
Chuckling softly, you tried to wriggle out of his arms and whispered to him, “Sti… we need to get up.”
“Ten more minutes Harls,” he mutters, his voice thick and groggy with sleep, his breath on your neck making the hairs on the back of your neck stand up and a shiver travel down your spine.
You bite back a small moan as you grab his arm before lifting it, “We don’t have a choice Bats. If we don’t get up Lydia is going to murder the two of us.”
Stiles’ reluctant groan fills your ears before you hear him give an exaggerated yawn and his arm lets go of you as he stretches out. Instantly, your body misses his touch but you push yourself off the bed and call the first shower.
The warm water of the shower was amazing on your body and you couldn’t believe just how relaxed you had found yourself this morning. Typically you had minor aches that the warm water would help with but this time there were no aches, nothing sore, no pains - just the comfort of a warm shower in the morning.
When you got out, you had thrown on a fluffy towel before you called out Stiles’ name, asking him what was on the agenda for today.
“Snorkeling and scuba lessons,” he reminded you as he passed you and you mentally rolled your eyes- Lydia had told you as much yesterday.
As you heard the water start up again, as Stiles jumped in the shower, you grabbed your duffel bag. Finding it empty you reminded yourself that you, Stiles and Lydia had unpacked all the clothing and you moved to the drawers. Quickly pulling out a couple of the swim suits, you decided to go with your most comfortable swim suit and after slipping into it you did your hair. You had enough time to grab Stiles a pair of his swim trunks before you heard him turning off thew water.
“Sti, I left you your swim trunks,” you called out as you slipped on some shoes and threw on a cover up, “I’m gonna get some breakfast with the pack.”
Making your way out to the kitchen, you most of the pack in the main part of the villa. Luke was making breakfast fo the group and Kira and Alex were helping him out.
“Anyone else notice that it’s the non-Alpha’s that are out here making breakfast?” Malia pointed out after a moment. You looked around and realized that she was right, it was you, Malia, Kira, Alex, Lydia and Luke.
“Mason’s not an Alpha,” Lydia pointed out and you heard Luke practically snort.
“It’s still us out here,” Malia scoffed and your small group had to laugh.
“Guarantee its only cause we were the ones to actually get up,” Kira points out, “Getting Scott out of bed this morning was a bear.”
“Jordan wasn’t much better,” Lydia confirmed with a shrug, “he seems to be exhausted.”
“Well we are on the other side of the world,” Malia said with a shrug before grabbing a water bottle.
“I pretty much told Stiles the same thing,” you said with a chuckle as you made your way over and grabbed the coffee pot and a cup and made yourself a cup.
Sitting at the breakfast table, sipping your morning coffee, you allowed yourself to just enjoy the time with your friends. It didn’t take long before the rest of the pack was up and about and after a decent breakfast, it was decided that it was time to make your way down to the docks to meet your boats.
You made your way back into the bedroom, thankful that Stiles had bought you a diving mask, snorkel  goggles, fins, and booties last year when the two  of you had decided to go to Cabo for the weekend and you were even more grateful that they still fit.
She and Jordan checked you in before you were split up into two groups of six. You and Stiles went with Theo, Malia, Lydia and Parrish.
Your instructor, Seru, took you on one of the smaller boats and out into the waters, to Beqa Island Lagoon and just far enough for you to enjoy what the waters of Fiji have to offer he says.
You were grateful that Lydia had booked this particular diving company. The group of you had been out snorkeling before but the way that this man explained things just made you feel more at ease.
It also helped that the company provided inflatable snorkeling vests because you hadn’t bought any while in Cabo and you’d forgotten to buy one before coming  and weren’t sure where to buy them on the island.
He checked with you, confirming that you knew what you were doing and you were aware of the basic safety procedures and risks involved with diving.
You were each paired off, coupled up of course, but everyone was planning on being the others snorkeling buddy. As a pack you took care of each other. It helped that Malia and Lydia were here with their mates which meant they were more attuned to each other.
It had been the reason that Scott and Kira had decided to go with Liam, Alex, Mason and Luke.  They were the youngest and newest couples. Ever since Liam had joined the pack, Scott had always treated him more like a little brother then just an Omega and once he and Kira had gotten back together - they treated the youngest members of the pack almost like their kids.
You were sure that you were going to meet up with them during your small expedition in the water and you and the rest of the pack would all end up looking after each other but your instructor was worried more about your small group and theirs would be worried about them.
After the safety protocols had been gone over and he had confirmed which of you were paired with who, the instructor had decided to go ahead and let you all get in the water.
Jumping in with Stiles and the others it took your body a moment to adjust to the waters but thankfully it wasn’t too bad, the warmth of the water was nice and after the water settled you could see the others in the water as well.
You felt a tap on your shoulder and turned around, Stiles offered you his hand and you placed your hand in his. The two of you started to explore and you find that the reef is absolutely beautiful. It’s full of the most beautiful coral formations you’ve ever seen. The colors are absolutely fantastic and with the sun reflecting around them you find yourself getting lost in them.
There’s fish that you’ve never seen and a part of you is tempted to reach out but you remember that the last time you’d been snorkeling Stiles had managed to get stung by a jellyfish.
So you kept your hands to yourself outside of just swimming.
Stiles tried to keep his eyes on the rest of the landscape he really did. He tried to pay attention to the fish they’d never seen. The coral formations, the sea anemones, even the turtles. However, his eyes kept getting dragged over to her.
Logically, he knew that the world around him was beautiful. He knew that they’d likely not get a chance to see the barrier reef again.. At least not this one… but he kept getting distracted by her.
He was unsurprised that he couldn’t keep his eyes off her. Long before he’d ever presented, he was drawn to her like she was the sun.
It had gotten worse after he’d presented and he’d had a hard time staying away from her. Something within him had always demanded that he claim her. He’d wanted to but when she hadn’t presented after a few years… He hadn’t cared. He still wanted to be with her but  then Chris had told them about how Alpha’s could only be with Omega’s… that only an Omega would be able to take his knot.
So he’d waited… he’d waited for her to present as an Omega because that was the only thing that had ever made sense. From everything Chris had told them… With how much he wanted her, she had to have been an Omega.
But she had never gone into a heat… she had never presented as an Omega and Chris had confirmed that it meant that she was a beta… like the majority of the world.
Then she had decided that they should stay friends only. She didn’t want to stop him from being able to take an Omega should he find one.
But she didn’t stop… she was the only thing that he wanted. Nothing else had mattered and he’d gone to talk to her about it but he’d read it on her face. She’d asked him to leave it alone and he knew that it broke her as much as it broke him.
So he’d agreed.
Breaking his heart in the process, he’d agreed.
It hadn’t stopped him from  wanting her… hadn’t stopped the Alpha in him from wanting to claim her.
She was the absolute light of his life.
But Stiles loved her… he respected her wishes and so he’s done everything he can the last couple of years to make sure that he respected her wishes. He had done everything he could to just stay her friend.
There’d been Omegas that had thrown themselves at him but they’d always disgusted him. They never smelled as divine as she did.
He’d avoided her during his ruts because he knew… he knew that if was around her when he was that out of his mind.. He’d want her and he knew that his need for her… whatever that primal voice he was able to ignore, would win out and he’d claim her. He’d hurt her and that was the last thing he’d ever want to do.
It had worked for the most part…
But the last couple of weeks since his last rut… it had been harder to not think of her that way, of what she would look like with his marking on her shoulder. What she would look like as she presented herself to him and what it would feel like as he sank into her and stretched her to him, how she’d clamp down around his knot… he did his best to shut it down when those thoughts appeared.
So yes, his gaze kept getting dragged over to her, no matter how hard he tried and his shorts felt uncomfortably tight even in the water but he did his best to focus on the  world around them.
It wasn’t working and Stiles felt like he needed a breath of air. Looking around, he caught sight of Theo who gave him a knowing look. Sending the were-coyote a desperate look,  Stiles waited until Theo simply nodded.
Quickly, Stiles made his way for the surface. No sooner than his head had broken through and he was gasping for air, taking large gulping breaths as he treaded above water.
The sound of their instructor calling his name caught his attention and Stiles had to turn to the man. Taking a moment to actually focus he realizes that the mans asking if he’s okay. The boat isn’t making its way over but he can see the life ring has been tossed out, floating just a little ways away.
The boat won’t come any closer in case there are others also on their way up.
“I’m fine!” he calls out to the man as he waves his hand in the air before giving the man the okay signal they’d been taught. ‘
Taking a few deep breaths, he allows his body to relax, forcing himself to get back under control before he dives under again and while it takes him a second to actually spot the others, he does so quickly and makes his way over to them.
It’s as he’s swimming over to them that he can see you making your way towards him, Theo and Malia just behind you. It isn’t until you’re close that he can see your face is twisted in worry and it throws him off balance for just a second when your body almost slams into his.
Your hands are instantly moving and it takes him a moment to realize that you’re actually signing to him.
Thinking back to the classes you’d gotten him to take, he  realizes that you’re pointing at him and then one hand is flat while the other is parallel moves against it in an almost fishlike move before you point at him again.
You do this movement a couple of times and Stiles eventually realizes that you’re asking him if he’s alright. He can’t remember how to sign that he’s fine but thankfully, he knows you paid attention to the instructor and he uses the same signal to tell you he’s fine…
It had been a small school of Masked Butterfly fish that had caught your attention and you’d turned around to get Stiles’ attention so he could see them too when you’d realized you couldn’t find him. You’d been looking around, moving enough to cause a ruckus and Theo had caught your attention. Pointing towards the surface and waving his arms.
Without a second thought, you’d propelled yourself upwards when you’d seen Stiles making his way back towards the reef. It had taken a bit of effort and you’d thanked swimming lessons when you managed to not slam into him.
A quick signed conversation later you realized he was fine. He’d probably just needed a little more air and didn’t wanna disturb you.
The group of you had been down for about seven minutes and you’d thought he would have still had air in the little pump thing they gave you guys, after all it was supposed to last ten minutes, but you shrugged it off.
Turning around, you realized that you could see the Butterfly fish not too far off and you still wanted to show Stiles so you pointed it out to him. But your lungs were starting to need more air so you motioned that you were heading back up for air real quick.
He nodded and followed along with you. When the two of you broke water, you gave him a skeptical look and all he did was smirk at you before pointing out, “Buddy system.”
“You left me alone!” you reminded him, playing at outrage.
“First off, I  did not, I told Theo to keep an eye on you,” he rebutted, “and besides, you didn’t even notice”
“For like a minute!”
“A minute I could have drowned in!” he dramatically grasped at his chest, making you laugh at his antics.
“Alright point taken,” you told him as you splashed some water at him,  before asking “but let’s go see the Masked Butterfly school then?”
“Which ones were those?”
“The yellow ones,” you remind him with a roll of your eyes.
You can hear Stiles laugh but shake your head before making your way back into the water. You meet up with Malia, Lydia, Jordan  and Theo.
Eventually, however, Scott, Kira and the others joined you and the pack simply enjoyed an early morning of snorkeling. You found that it was some of the most beautiful sights you’d ever seen. One of the things that you liked about traveling was the sights that you didn’t get in California.
Sure Big Bear was pretty, the beaches could be gorgeous and Yosemite was absolutely breathtaking but getting out of your little world.. Getting to travel and see the rest of the world. Well it always left you a bit breathless.
The Fijian reefs were so different from the ones you’d seen in Mexico. Perhaps it was just your memory but the colors were a thousand times brighter and you knew that there were animals you hadn’t seen in the waters in Mexico.
Kira and Alex seemed to be having a blast with it. Dragging each other towards different things.
You, Lydia, and Luke all got together and explored the area.
It wasn’t long before the morning got away from you and you each heard your respective instructors calling you back towards the boats.
Once you were on the boat, you slipped on the cover-up before you had Stiles tie the backing straps and you slipped on his shirt.
Tumblr media
Thankfully, the company had decided that they would honor Lydia’s request and decided they would drop you off on the other side of the island. It would take about 30 minutes to get to the other side.
You curled up with the girls and the three of you chatted away happily. While you didn’t mean to, you found your gaze kept sliding over to Stiles.
Having kept his shirt you had noticed that there were drops of water shining off his skin.
You could feel your breath catch in your throat and you must have been staring because a moment later, you can feel Lydia nudging you and when you look over, Malia’s giving you a knowing look.
You can feel your skin heat in embarrassment.
“See something you like?” Lydia teases you.
“Of course she does,” Malia chuckles and waggles her eyebrows at you.
“Shut up,” you mutter to the two girls.
You can hear both Theo and Jordan holding back a chortle and out of the corner of your eye, you can see both of the male's shoulders shaking.
Turning slightly, Stiles catches your eye and gives you a questioning look. Shaking your head all you can do is laugh softly because of course, this is how things work out.
Stiles merely shrugs at you before turning back towards the guys and the three of them seem to continue whatever conversation they’d been on.
You could feel your heart practically pounding in your throat and the girls just gave you knowing looks
Rolling your eyes, you shook your head.  It’s not like you weren’t actually aware of Stiles. Quite the opposite in fact.
Thankfully, they didn’t press the issue further and the three of you fall into your own conversation until, thankfully, you make it to the island again.  Scott, Kira, and the others are just behind you.
“Alright, let’s do lunch!” Stiles points out with a clap of his hands as you all get off the boat and his arm finds itself over your shoulders and you smile softly as you scoff softly.
Thankfully everyone agrees and you decide to go ahead and do some sightseeing after the fact.  The group of you find a smaller restaurant and, unsurprisingly, are advised that due to the size of your group, you’re going to have to wait for a little bit.
You catch up with Scott and Kira who are telling you about how their guide had actually suggested a pretty delicious family-owned restaurant for you to have dinner at. Apparently, they had taken a lot of the classic Fijian dishes and added American twists to them. Something they had learned the Americans appreciated.
The dishes were actually smaller dishes and served like samplers. You got to choose which one you wanted most. It would be a set of three, the dish that was the fusion, the American dish that it was fused with, and the classic Fijian dish that was the other half of it.
The idea sounded intriguing enough that mostly everyone seemed to agree with it. Theo, Liam,  and Alex were a bit more hesitant but they had agreed to it either way.
As the pack sat down and enjoyed their dinner, you all decided that you wanted to get back out in the water. Lydia had already suggested scuba diving and, thankfully, there was an area further out that you could go scuba diving in.
After some back and forth, Scott, Liam, and Theo thinking it would be better to get out there today, and Lydia, you, and Kira arguing that it would be better to get out there later this week as you’d already spent the morning in the water. Eventually, everyone agrees to go ahead and make it a trip for later in the week.
After lunch, the pack had decided that it would be good to explore the island a bit. After which, you would meet up at the villa before making your way down to Ivi Restaurant in order to enjoy a good night of food and some good old pack bonding.
Unsurprisingly, everyone kind of paired off with their significant others. You and Stiles started going through the small island where you knew you were obvious tourists, sticking out like a sore thumb in the crowds but you enjoyed it anyway.
You explored the little shops and made sure that you bought something from the locals. Things that were locally made. You’d promised yourself when Scott had taken the pack on their first out-of-country trip and Stiles had done a bunch of research about how some of the areas had issues with their own cultures disappearing because of tourism.
While buying the work didn’t fix the issue, it did help the people that lived in the area and you figured that was the  best possible action you could take.
While you were going through the shops you actually ended up meeting up with Scott and Kira, who had been doing pretty much the same thing. The four of you hung out for a little bit and as you moved through the island, you found yourself catching up with both of them.
You hadn’t actually realized how long it had been since you’d talked to either of them. So, linking your arm with Kira, pulling her closer to you with Scott and Stiles on either side of the two of you.
The four of you explored a few more shops and before you knew it, it was late enough in the day that you made your way towards the villa.  On the way, however, Kira wanted to stop and grab some groceries for the pack.
Nothing big, mostly just making sure there were some snacks and fruits that the pack could snack on. It had been something that she’d actually wanted to do yesterday but with how tired everyone had been and how much sleep she needed, she’d decided to hold off.
You had made your way through the island and had found a local outdoor market. Thankfully, you were able to get some items pretty quickly. It was mostly a lot of nuts and fruits but seeing as how that was something the entire pack was going to enjoy.
You and Stiles checked out a few different stalls for yourselves, trying to find something that you might want just for you. Picking up some strawberries and some nuts you were walking by a stall when a woman called the both of you over.
She offered you both a drink that was in a coconut shell. The thing was that it didn’t smell all that great and looked like maybe it was supposed to be water but it wasn’t actually very clear.
Looking over to Stiles, you knew he could see the question on your face and thankfully, he stepped in, clearing his throat, “Ummm what is it?”
“Kava,” the woman tells him, “It’s for you and your wife. It’s to relax, to smile, and for better sex.”
You can feel your skin heating up and you kind of want the ground to open up and swallow you whole.
Stiles’ face flushes a pretty red and you know that he’s feeling the same way. It’s the same look he’d had last night with the masseurs. He looked panicked and this time, you figured you’d save him.
Clearing your throat, you stepped forward, somewhat between him and the woman and cleared your throat, “Thank you… umm.. It will be good for relaxation.”
She looks between the two of you almost questioningly but you simply take the drink from her and shrug your shoulders.
Thanking the woman, you offer Stiles a soft, slightly embarrassed smile before the two of you make your way back towards the villa with Scott and Kira not far behind you.
Once you make it to the Villa you find that the rest of the pack was already there. They had apparently decided to make the most of their varying time with some intentional couple time.
It took you all of half a second to realize what that meant for some of them and you didn’t bother to bite back your laugh. After all, it had to be uncomfortable for the were’s in the group to have to listen to or smell some of the others.
Malia had shoved you with her shoulder, as retaliation, as she walked by her. Making you laugh even harder.
“Don’t be a jerk,” she mutters to you, “Too many scents.”
“You could’ve left,”  you point out to her, sticking your tongue out.
She merely shrugged her shoulders and offered you a wink.
“Well as wonderful as this all is,” Lydia’s voice cuts in, “We have reservations. Go get ready, all of you.”
You can see Stiles out of the corner of your eye and you know he’s rolling his eyes before he gives Malia a mock salute with two fingers making you laugh,
The two of you make your way back towards the room you’re sharing and you know that the others are making their way towards their rooms as well.
Rummaging through your clothes you realize that the last resort you had stayed at had a dress code when you went to the restaurants and you had no idea what this one was.
“Hey Sti?” You ask as you turn around from the clothes on your side of the closet and towards the brunette who’s holding up a set of different shirts, a regular t-shirt, and a button-up.
He looks up, meeting your gaze and he’s thinking the same thing because he smirks and asks you, “Dress code right?”
You nod your head and he’s practically bounding out the door, likely in search of Lydia, and you chuckle as you pull out a couple different options. Thankfully, you had brought a pretty stable wardrobe for the week with a few statement pieces that could either make an outfit more casual or more dressed up.
Grabbing Stiles’ flannel that you’d slept in and a clean pair of underwear, you made your way towards the bathroom
While you were showering, Stiles’ voice echoed through the bathroom,  “Lydia said they told her smart casual. But make sure you wear pants cause they’re expecting cold weather.”
“Got it!” you called out from under the water.
Once you were out of the shower, you walked out to find Stiles had changed into a pair of dark blue jeans, a black shirt, and a black button-up that he had thrown on top of the shirt. The sleeves were rolled up and you were treated to the sight of his forearms, one of your personal favorite features of his.
You must have stared too long because you can feel his eyes on you and you glance up to meet his eyes. He’s giving you a knowing look and you can feel your skin heat up.
“Don’t look at me in that tone of voice,” you tell him.
“I didn’t say anything!” he defends himself, a laugh on his lips,   and you can’t help but snort.
“Your face did,’” you tell him as you cross over to the closet and grab a pair of dark blue wash jeans, a white cotton shirt that’s loose and flowy in the front, scooping down further in the front but it’s not so loose that you drown in it.  Going through your shoes, it takes you a second but you settle on a pair of black sandals you had brought specifically for the beach. Everything else seemed either too casual or too… much.
You stick your tongue out at him, playfully, before you start to make your way over towards the doors when Stiles calls your name. A glance back and he’s lifting his jacket, a reminder that you need your own.
“Right…”
You make your way back towards the closet and grab the caramel-colored pleather jacket that he’d gifted you last year for Christmas and you shrug it on, happy that it’s just enough to keep you warm and comfortable enough that you can move mostly freely in the material.
The two of you met with the rest of the pack a few minutes later when Lydia got a look at your shoes and practically screeched in outrage. All you could do was raise an eyebrow at her and share a confused look with Parrish who just signed as he shook his head affectionately while the redheaded banshee ran to their shared room. Before anyone could actually say anything, she was out of the room again. A pair of nude heels with a thin strap across the toes and around the ankle with a thick chunky heel for you to use.
“Use these,” she practically hissed at you as she shoved the heels into your arms. Trying not to chuckle, you nodded your head and did as you were told.
You’d learned long ago that when Lydia was on one of her fashion moments, it was best to just follow along and do as she asked.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally, finally, after what had felt like forever - the pack made its way towards the main part of the island. You had to take another boat to get to Ivi Restaurant.
Thankfully, someone, likely Lydia or Mason, had had the foresight to call ahead and when you got there, you were only waiting a few minutes before your large group was being seated.
The table had a beautiful view of the ocean and you quickly took a seat on the side of the table where you would be able to see it. Would be able to watch the sunset over the beautiful water as you and your friends enjoyed the night.
Everyone ordered something. Luke had even asked for a possible vegan option - something that had thrown the waiter off for a moment before she asked you all to give her a second.
She came back with the chef a few minutes later who, after talking to Luke and getting his preferences, asked if he would trust her to put something together.
Luke had wholeheartedly agree before the woman had nodded and made her way back towards the kitchens. You all sipped on your respective drinks and talked about what you had done during the day… meaning most of the conversation was about Kira, Scott, Stiles and you as the rest of the group had made the most of their time just being a couple while the four of you had managed to actually explore.
You felt your eyes widen as Kira shared about your trip to the market. Apparently, she had overheard the woman about you and Stiles when she sold you the Kava and you couldn’t help but drop your head into your hands as the rest of the pack just laughed at your poor misfortune.
Thankfully, before you could scold any of them, the food came out.
The chef had made Luke something that looked like a taco that must have been tofu-based, something that looked for all the world to be green curry, a salad that was filled with local fruits that had to be in season currently, including oranges, and a rice dish that smelled like heaven.
The pack just spent the night together, the  moment settling something in your soul as you got lost in this moment.
With these people that you called home.
Time had flown by and the next thing that you knew, you felt a hand on your thigh. Looking over, you saw Stiles motioning towards the water behind Luke.
Following his line of sight, you felt your breath get caught in your throat at the site in front of you. You had seen beautiful sunsets before but there was something about the way that the sunset over the beautiful crystalline water took your breath away.
Stiles had to remind himself to breathe.  One of his favorite things was to just watch you. It always soothed something in him, made him feel warm inside in a way he couldn’t really explain. Looking at you now, he felt his heart catch in his throat, the way that your face lit up at the  sight of the sun setting in front of you.
Stiles couldn’t properly describe it but if he did have to put words to it…. Well it was like watching an old man, blind from cataracts, being gifted with sight again and seeing the world with an appreciation that most people would never know to have… that most people would never know to even consider.
That was just Y/N’s way though. When the rest of the world was too busy to notice the beauty in front of them. Hell even when the pack was too busy to notice the beauty in front of them, she always noticed it. She always took the time to see beauty in the world around her and, in return, the world gifted her with the most beautiful sights to exist.

Tumblr media
Black. Black was one of the colors you had seen a lot lately, black sky, black eyes, black dress, black suit, black hair... Black hair, your brother had black hair, pale skin and dark eye bags almost gave him the appearance of something dead. Well, I guess he didn’t just look dead anymore. L Lawliet was your brother, he was the worlds greatest detective, and the worlds worst brother, he didn’t call, nor did he text, it was like one day he fell off the face of the earth and the only thing you heard about him was through news stories and pamphlets. But, hey, none of it mattered anymore, so that was good. Right? 
Your dress was a nice black one, it had a white collar and was pleated at the ends. It reminded you of him, you used to play outside with him in a similar dress. You paired it with a black coat since the wind was blowing rather harshly.  You wore a slight bit of makeup, waterproof of course and a small bag to carry extra just in case. A wide brimmed black hat, black moccasins and black thigh high socks..  Nothing provocative, you were at your brothers funeral for crying out loud.
You had received a letter from what you assumed to be L a few days ago. The truth is that L never planned on contacting you again but, him and Watari had come up with a plan that in case of his death, you would be invited to his funeral. Clever little bastard, he had found a way to avoid you and still make you mourn him.
The only face you knew in the crowd of what, ten people? Was Light Yagami. You knew he was under suspicion for being kira, but you also knew he was in contact with your brother, so you befriended him in confidence that you accidentally see him and Light and would be able to see him again, without seeming like a total idiot for searching for someone who didn’t want to be found. But it never happened.
 You were about to talk at your brothers grave. You wanted to tell him how much you hated him for leaving you, damn it, he hadn’t even tried to reach out to you. Anger bubbled and boiled inside you, like an overflowing pot, ready to seethe.  
“L...” you croaked, not realizing how dry your mouth was. Everyone looked at you, their gaze melting your skull. Clearing your mouth and trying your best to control yourself, you said. “You we’re the worst brother anyone could’ve asked for, but still, I hope Kira is found. That way I can look into the fuckers eyes as he dies on the electric chair,” 
“Brother? L was your brother?” Light stammered. 
“Yes,” you put your bag down, eyes beginning to water, voice even raspier then before, “excuse me,” And with that you left to go calm down. 
Just before you left the funeral for good, you remembered your bag. You couldn’t just leave it at your brothers grave. You picked yourself up, shaking a little, you wobbled back over to the funeral. The other guys walked past you, maybe the funeral had already ended? 
Then you say him, standing over the grave. Your beautiful blue bags cool colors contrasted wonderfully with the red in the sky. You assumed Light was just saying a few final things to L privately, so you sat down at another grave waiting for him to finish so you could say some things as well. 
Lights laugh erupted out of nowhere, it frightened you to be honest. “Now everything that was in my way is gone, everyone else still believes in me,” everyone else? what was he talking about? “Its only a matter of time before i get rid of the police, whaddya think of that L? This is my perfect victory, that’s right! I WIN!” Oh god, now you were scared. Suddenly he turned towards you, as if someone had told him of your presents. “Y/n... how much did you hear?”  
You just stared at him, the gears in your head turning. Then it hit you, Light was Kira, a murderous psychopath who killed your brother. I mean L was already suspicious of Light for being Kira, and after what you just saw... That means that Light had been faking everything this whole time. Every minute of everyday he spent telling you he was getting closer to convincing your brother to meet with you, helping you, pretending to be your friend. You ran. God, you ran as fast as you could, you HAD to tell the others. Light was in fact Kira, he would be the fucker whose eyes you’d be looking into.
(Warning!! spice begins here) 
But before you got too far a hand reached onto your arm. Long, muscular fingers wrapped around your forearm. Too scared to turn around, your pulse dancing to the music of your heartbeat, you stood there. 
“Y/n,” he seemed a mere centimeter from your nape. “Say something, please,” his voice sounded so gentle, like he was talking to a small child who was in need of comfort. 
“W-why-- h-how?” Your tongue tripped over its self, twisting into a knot then sinking down to your throat. Gulping, to try and get the sensation away you said “You, k-killed L...” some would’ve said your voice was only a whisper, but to Light, it was as loud as church bells. 
He flipped you around, in a way that you were looking right at him, somehow, someway, this vicious killers eyes, didn’t seem evil. No they seemed determined and polite. They were dark brown. tree coloured almost. Both your arms had relaxed by now, suddenly it was just you and your brothers killer. Maybe, deep down, you were thankful, if Light hadn’t killed L you’d still be chasing your tail. On a wild goose chase for as long as you would live. 
Before you knew it, the distance between you and him got smaller and smaller.  Perhaps you should kiss him, just to spite L. Dance on his grave a little. 
Your lips met soft, sweet ones. Standing there you and light yagami kissed. It was soft and gentle, until Lights hands started moving. The tips of his fingers dragging up your skin, leaving a trail of goosebumps behind. From your wrist to your shoulders all the way to your neck, were it laid, lightly choking you. His other hand reached for the crick in your back, pulling you in closer. His tongue lightly brushed against your bottom lip and he began to focus on it. You could feel him through his clothes. Face burning with suspense you opened your mouth, allowing the kiss to take a step farther. 
His tongue was soft, it swished and swirled around with yours. He tasted like mint mouthwash. Wanting to feel him closer, your hands sliping under his shirt, dancing along his torso then resting on his chest.
This was wrong wasn’t it... Making out with your brothers murderer, there was no doubt about it, at his own funeral too. But if this was so wrong, then how come it wanted to be right?
Suggestions are open if you have any requests

@trulytaka​ asked: um i’ve always dreamt about a tattoo artist!renji falling for a client AU. it’s okay if you can’t come up with anything, just a suggestion!
How is it even possible that I have never read a Tattoo Artist! Renji AU?? (If there is one, please, send it to me immediately). Anyway, I got way too enamored of this idea, this is not even remotely a drabble, it is 4400 words and it is incredibly self-indulgent, I am absolutely not sorry.
It takes place in America and everyone is Japanese-American, because I am way more comfortable writing about American tattoo culture. I have never actually read a Tattoo Artist AU, I don’t know how they are supposed to go, this is just based on my own experiences getting inked. It’s mostly a story about Rukia and Renji being incredible nerfballs, there are not nearly enough stories about Rukia being a nerfball around Renji.
Read on ao3 or ff.net
💀     🛹     💕
Izuru Kira found Renji Abarai in the break room, simultaneously trying to cram a burrito into his face and read a Hellboy comic. He was holding the comic open with his elbow in an attempt to avoid spilling guacamole on Abe Sapien.
“Your two o’clock is here,” Izuru informed his distinguished colleague.
“Oh, great!” Renji replied, creasing the foil wrapper into a spout so that he could pour the last of the salsa drippings into his mouth.
“She’s waiting in the consult room,” Izuru went on, watching Renji toss the crumpled foil ball across the room, completely missing the trash can. “Look, have you met her before? A Miss Kuchiki?”
“Just exchanged a few emails,” Renji replied, as he scrubbed his hands at the sink. “Why? Is she scary?”
“Not in the usual way of Abarai clients,” Izuru replied. “I was just… wondering if she was... in the right place.”
“Her request was very specific,” Renji replied, scooping up his comic and the manila folder underneath it. “In fact, I am quite proud of what I came up with for her.” He whipped the folder open.
Izuru stared at it for a moment. “That is so specific.”
“I honestly think this is one of the best tatts I have ever designed. I hope she’s a real weirdo, because not just anyone deserves a masterpiece of this caliber.”
“Mmm,” Izuru agreed. “Yeah. Anyway, if there’s been a, uh, miscommunication, see if you can just… redirect her. Both Momo and I are in today, okay?”
Renji scoffed and stuffed his comic in Izuru’s hand as he marched down the hall toward the consult room. A miscommunication. Renji wondered what was wrong with her. She was probably mousy and wore glasses. Izuru always assumed girls like that would rather have a sad poem about the sea or a sprig of herbs inked on her wrist (conveniently, his specialties). Plenty of mousy girls with glasses would rather rock some fangs or dripping daggers, in Renji’s professional experience.
“Knock knock!” he announced, as he slid the door open. He took one step into the room and stopped dead.
Rukia Kuchiki was not mousy. She did not wear glasses.
Renji didn’t know much about suits. He did not happen to own one himself. But he guessed that Rukia Kuchiki’s suit was expensive, in part because it fit her perfectly, despite her tiny frame. It was jet black, and didn’t have a single speck of lint or cat hair on it. Her perfectly manicured hands were folded neatly on top of her crossed legs. She was wearing very tall, very pointy heels. Their soles were bright red, which Renji had learned from television meant that they were super expensive. He realized that he probably shouldn’t be looking at her legs, even though they were very nice to look at. His eyes snapped up to her face, but that honestly wasn’t any better.
Renji wasn’t often attracted to women, but she had probably the most interesting face he had ever seen-- heart-shaped, with big, dark eyes, a sharp chin, the cutest little nose. Her make-up was subtle and professional, and her hair was swept up with a clip, although it must be fairly short, because a few pieces hung down in front of her ears, and a thick lock dangled between her eyes.
She looked like a mean lawyer from a movie, one that would drive a fancy sportscar like an act of violence. Scary, for sure. But not in the usual way of Abarai clients, who tended toward the large and beefy, not that sharp and sharklike.
That nose, though.
Suddenly, her face split into a big grin. “Hi,” she announced brightly. “I’m Rukia Kuchiki.” She had a deep voice, a very beautiful voice. “You must be Renji Abarai.” Her eyes flicked to his arms. “I mean, of course you are, who else would have those arms? They’re so cool.”
“My arms?” Renji said stupidly. “Are they… famous?”
Rukia’s cheeks flushed. “Oh, well, I follow you on Instagram, and you don’t have any pictures of your face, but your arms are in a lot of the shots and they’re, well, they’re kinda distinctive. Do you think, um, would you mind if I looked at them?”
Renji’s eyebrows shot up. It’s not like he wasn’t used to having his arms checked out, but most people were more… subtle about it. Oh, well, it was her dime. “I didn’t do them myself, obviously,” he pointed out, rolling up the sleeves of his t-shirt so she could see the baboon skull on his left shoulder. A skeletal arm traced down the rest of that arm, complete with an outline of his own hand bones. On the right side, a snake spine coiled around his bicep, ending with a hissing skull. “I mean, it was my design, but my friends-- the other three tattoo artists here-- all helped ink me up.” He plopped down in the chair that sat catty corner to the couch where Rukia was sitting, and held his arms out. “We’re sort of a full-service studio. I’m the skeletons and monsters guy. Izuru, the guy you met on desk duty today-- is good at calligraphy and watercolors and little, itty bitty tattoos. Momo is our nature girl, she specializes in flowers and animals, and she’s great with bright colors. The snake skull was all her. Shuuhei is really into classic tattoo art-- you need a hula girl or a heart with an arrow through it, he’s your man. He’s also incredibly talented at revamping old regret tattoos, there’s good money in that.”
“Mm,” Rukia agreed, finally tearing her eyes away from his forearms to look up at his face, and abruptly turned even pinker. A lot of people fantasized about getting a tattoo and then got a bad case of nerves when it was time to make the leap. Maybe all this was way out of her comfort zone. Renji was trying his best to be friendly and chatty, which usually helped, but he was not used to dealing with this class of lady. He hoped he wasn’t coming off as too familiar.
“Actually,” Rukia went on, pulling on her fingers nervously. “I picked this place specifically because of you. For your work, I mean. I’m kind of a big fan. I saw some of your paintings at an exhibition over at the Fine Arts College, and I just, you know, fell in love. I’d always thought I’d like to get a tattoo someday, and when I found out that you were a tattoo artist, I knew it had to be you. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time, and I’m babbling and I’m really sorry, I’m just very excited.”
Renji blinked. “You’re not babbling,” he replied slowly. He was sort of hoping she might say some more things about how much she liked his art in her beautiful voice. “Wait, an exhibition at the art school? That must have been at least three years ago, when I was doing my MFA.”
“Er, right,” Rukia looked a little sheepish. “A friend of mine had some work in the same exhibit, you probably don’t know her. My favorite one of your paintings was the one with the Black Lagoon creatures eating hamburgers at a diner, but I also really liked the one that was like a huge monster with a big bone mask stalking through a city, the way you did the shadows was just incredible.”
That particular painting was currently wrapped in brown paper and stuffed behind Renji’s couch. His last boyfriend had told him it was “creepy.”
“Uh, glad you liked it,” Renji managed. “Who was your friend?”
“Her name is Inoue. Orihime Inoue.”
“Oh, the robot girl!” Renji exclaimed. “Er, I mean she drew robots. Constantly. For every assignment. I didn’t mean to imply she was… robotic. In any way.” Jeez, Abarai, pull it together, he chided himself. “Yeah, I remember her. I didn’t know her well, but she sure could draw some tight robots. Is, she, uh, doing well?”
“She’s doing storyboards for a stop-motion animation studio,” Rukia replied.
Renji smiled. “That sounds perfect for her.”
Rukia bit her bottom lip and Renji’s throat went dry.
“So, um, you said in your email that you would have a design for me to look at?”
Renji realized that he was gripping the folder like a doofus. “Right! I did a couple of variations,” he explained, passing it from one hand to the other. “But you explained the concept pretty clearly, and I’m really happy with how the first one came out. I mean, obviously, it’s your tattoo! Please give me any feedback you have, you won’t offend me, even if you hate it! Tattoo designs often take a few iterations, it’s very normal, don’t hold back.”
She was staring at him, those big eyes wide and sparkling. “Can I… see it?”
“Oh! Right!” He shoved the folder at her.
Rukia opened it up and gasped.
“I especially love the way you draw skeletons,” Rukia’s email had read. “Do you think you could tattoo a grim reaper doing a sick kickflip on a skateboard onto my outer bicep? I do lift, so I am pretty jacked, if that makes a difference.”
“It’s perfect,” Rukia sighed in a tiny voice.
“Um, in the first variation (that’s page 2) I added some sunglasses, and in the second one, the grim reaper is flipping the bird and also its head is on fire. I guess I thought that grim reapers should be gender neutral but now I’m wondering if you would have preferred more of a… lady grim reaper?” Renji yammered absently.
“Oh, no,” Rukia murmured softly, flipping through the pages. Renji wasn’t even sure she had listened to a word he had said. “These are amazing. I love the sunglasses, but I also like the way you put little flames in the eye sockets in the first one…” She waved a hand absently. “Oh, and don’t worry, I like a non-binary skeleton.”
A small problem had just occurred to Renji. “Hey, um, please don’t take this the wrong way, but I… may have overestimated the size of your arms.”
“Oh?” Rukia asked, and abruptly shucked off her expensive suit jacket. She was wearing a pale purple sleeveless silk blouse underneath. She held one arm out experimentally, and then flexed. The muscle definition on her bicep made Renji take an involuntary swallow, but the fact that she was wicked cut did not buy him much in the way of real estate.
“I’ll just shrink it down maybe 25%,” he reassured her. “I’ll have to simplify some of the detail on--”
“No,” Rukia frowned, her eyebrows drawing together. “Don’t do that.” She thought for a moment. “I’m not committed to having it on my arm.” She uncrossed her legs and hefted one high-heeled foot onto the coffee table in front of her. “What do you think? Is my thigh big enough?”
Renji tried to make words come out, but it just wasn’t happening.
“Er… sorry,” Rukia said slowly, tugging at her hem. “I forgot I was wearing a skirt today.”
“Huh?” Renji scrambled to recover. He needed to say something. She looked really embarrassed. Say something! Say something professional about her leg! “Sorry, I was, uh, thinking!” Good, good, now keep going. “Don’t be self-conscious, I see people’s bodies all the time. Bodies are no big deal, we all got ‘em, right?” This was true in the abstract sense, but he knew these were blatant lies as they exited his mouth. Most people’s bodies were no big deal. He had only known her for five minutes, but was certain that Rukia Kuchiki’s thighs were a very big deal. He studied her leg, stroking his chin, like he was some kind of anthropologist of thigh tattoos. Mostly he was trying to figure out what would seem like an appropriate amount of time to look at a person’s thigh, a person who was your professional client that you most definitely did not have the hots for. “There’s certainly plenty of room,” he declared. “But, you know, people are going to see it less. Which is a selling point for some people! It’s just a personal decision that you’ll have to make. It sounds like you had a big vision.”
Rukia gingerly placed her foot back on the floor. “I had actually been wondering if maybe the upper arm was too public, anyway,” she admitted. “The fact is, I just got full access to my trust fund, and this is sort of a celebration, but I may have been a little overeager to piss off my big brother. He’s very stodgy.” She contemplated the area of her leg that was covered by her pencil skirt. “But so are a lot of people in my field. I can wait until I’m running my own company before I get started on the full sleeve of my dreams, right?”
“Worked for me,” Renji replied, utterly lost by whatever she was talking about. “What… field are you in?”
“Oh, finance,” she dismissed.
Finance. Of course. Renji tried to shoo away the weight of disappointment that was settling in his stomach. He was talking to a friendly client who was clearly loaded, loved his work, and was contemplating thousands of dollars worth of future business. He should be thrilled. He should probably be trying to sell her one of his old paintings-- they were only gathering dust, anyway. Renji would never break the studio policy about hitting on clients. The fact that she would surely laugh at him if he asked her to his favorite burger joint ought to make things easier, right?
“This is so hard!” Rukia declared, and Renji was shaken from his reverie. She was just contemplating his draft designs again, though, flipping back and forth between them.
“You don’t have to decide right now,” he reassured her. “You can think about it and email me. If you’re happy enough, we can schedule your session, and we’ll work out the details between now and then. Chat it over with your pal MechaHime, she’s got good opinions.” He paused. Momo always said he was too nice during consults, they were running a business, but he couldn’t help it. “Or you can just call back when you’re ready. No pressure.”
Rukia slammed her fist down on her knee. “No! Let’s schedule it! Do I pay now?”
“20% deposit. Let’s go out front, Izuru will ring it up.”
“Perfect.” She looked longingly at the drawings again. “Can I take these with me? You’re absolutely right, Orihime will know what to do.”
Renji wrinkled his nose. “It’s actually against studio policy but…”
Rukia’s face suddenly became very serious. “Then it’s against policy.” She winked at him and smiled. “You should take care of your intellectual property, Mr. Abarai.”
“I never get over to this part of town, to be honest,” Rukia admitted as they walked back up to the front. “Is the taco place across the street any good?”
“Oh, yeah, it’s great,” Renji agreed. “Momo and I painted a huge mural on their wall, so they give us free churros.”
“Are tacos a good post-tattoo celebratory meal?” Rukia asked curiously.
“Well, you actually want to eat beforehand,” Renji pointed out. “It’s important to keep your energy up. I don’t estimate yours should take very long, I’m gonna book you a two-hour slot.”
“Ah, okay,” Rukia agreed, and Renji realized belatedly that...maybe… she had been asking him out? No. Surely not. His brain scrabbled for a response, but then he stepped into the reception area and his brain shut down entirely.
“It’s DONE!” Shuuhei bellowed. “Behold my work, ye mighty, and despair!”
Tetsuzaemon Iba, serial client, yakuza enthusiast, and assistant manager at a doggie day care, was flexing. He was not wearing a shirt.
From behind the reception desk, Kira was wearing a dour frown and shaking his head.
“It’s a masterpiece,” Renji declared. “I admit I was skeptical, but it looks fantastic, man. You happy with it?”
“It” was a massive tattoo, covering the wide landscape of Iba’s broad back. It featured a lucky cat, grinning maniacally, its paw held high. It was on fire. The kanji for “lucky charm” was incorporated somehow. It was a disaster. It was perfect.
“How could I not be?” Iba boomed.
“Whoa,” a tiny voice behind Renji said.
Iba’s face went pale when he realized that he was being Peak Iba in front of an elegant, professional woman whose shoes probably cost more than his entire net worth. “Gimme me my shirt!” he demanded of Shuuhei.
“That’s… amazing!” Rukia exclaimed, her face lighting up. “Wow, how long did that take?”
Shuuhei blinked slowly as he passed Iba his shirt. “Five sessions.”
“Well, it’s so cute!” Rukia announced. “You must love cats.”
Iba lifted at the same gym as Renji and watched Momo’s Pomeranian on Tuesdays and Thursdays. He was a regular fixture at the tattoo studio, and all four of them liked to drag him, but no one, none of them, had ever roasted him this hard. Renji cursed that no-asking-out-clients rule, because he wanted to buy Rukia Kuchiki her own body weight in tacos and then ask her to be his wife.
“He’s more of a dog person,” Shuuhei supplied.
“Great with dogs,” Izuru added.
“Shut up, you jerks, I am a lover of all animals,” Iba grumbled as he pulled his Hawaiian shirt over his shoulders. “Is this your lawyer, Abarai? Did you finally get arrested for that hairstyle?”
“I have an MBA, actually, not a JD,” Rukia replied matter-of-factly. “And I am his client. Can you show that large man my tattoo design? Is that allowed?”
Renji chuckled, and pulled out his drawing.
“That,” Iba declared, “is a wicked tatt.”
“Oh, you showed me that email!” Shuuhei recalled. “It came out great.” He regarded Rukia. “He was really excited about that one, you made his day.”
Rukia just beamed proudly.
“Are we booking a session, then?” Izuru asked hopefully.
“Yeah, two hours,” Renji nodded.
“Let me just finish ringing up Iba, and I’ll see when you’ve got an opening,” Izuru replied.
“This your first one?” Shuuhei asked Rukia conversationally.
“Mm-hmm,” Rukia nodded.
“Well, you made a good choice. Clean design, mostly black with just a few color pops, should go on quick and easy, and it’ll hold up really well, too.”
“This is Shuuhei, the one I was telling you about, who fixes a lot of bad tattoos.”
“I have never had to fix an Abarai tattoo,” Shuuhei declared. “He’s great with first timers. Very gentle. I’ve fallen asleep while he was inking me.” Shuuhei pointed to the pair of crossed scythes gracing his upper arm. “This is one of his.”
“Oooh, neat!” Rukia agreed.
“You’re being embarrassing,” Renji informed his friend.
“Always,” Shuuhei agreed. “Nice to meet you! I hope I get to see the finished product.” He waved to Iba as he headed off toward the back. “Don’t forget to moisturize!”
“Everyone’s so friendly here,” Rukia said softly to Renji. “This isn’t at all like I pictured it.”
Renji stretched his arms behind his head. “Nah, we’re just a bunch of goofballs who like drawin’ on people. Very lowkey.”
“I guess I’ve thought a lot about the getting tattooed part of getting tattooed, but I never thought of it as… a job. That people have.”
“It’s a great job,” Renji replied. “I love it. I’m just lucky that Izuru over there has enough business sense to keep the other three of us from running it into the ground.”
“That’s certainly the truth,” Izuru agreed, as Iba headed out the door. “Two hours, you said? Renji’s got a 4-6pm block open on a Wednesday, three weeks from now. The 24th, how does that work for you, Ms. Kuchiki?”
“Do you think that’s enough time to settle on a design?” Renji asked. “If you come up with changes, it should only take me a day or two to incorporate them.”
“Oh! Yes, three weeks should be fine. I thought… it might be a little sooner,” Rukia replied, sounding a tad disappointed.
“Abarai’s a busy man, three weeks is actually pretty quick,” Izuru explained.
“Right, of course!” Rukia nodded. “Yes, I’ll take the 24th!”
She then paid her deposit, a process which involved her taking approximately ten thousand items out of her purse, including a full-sized drawing pad, a single fingerless glove, and a Pez dispenser with a duck head. She was the most contradictory person Renji had ever met, and he just wanted to know everything about her. But instead, they were going to exchange a couple of emails about a grim reaper on a skateboard, he was going to spend an hour and a half two inches from her naked thigh in a state of intense, non-sexual concentration, and then he would likely never see her again.
“Okay, I guess that’s it!” Rukia said, stuffing the last of her worldly belongings back into the purse. “Three weeks, then!”
“Three weeks it is,” Renji agreed. “Unless we happen to run into each other at the taco place.”
Rukia blinked. “Oh!” she exclaimed. “Right. Ha, ha, of course!” She’d been walking backwards toward the door, an impressive feat in those heels, and she spun suddenly to pull it open.
“It’s a push,” Renji and Izuru chorused together.
“Ha, ha, of course it is!” Rukia laughed nervously, and ducked out.
Izuru stared pointedly at Renji. “Wow,” he said.
“I don’t know what you have against her,” Renji scowled. “So she’s professional. She was really nice. She’s a big fan of my work.”
Izuru cocked his head. “She’s clearly also a big fan of you.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Renji said.
“Look, I’m sorry I implied that a person who drives a Lotus Exige would not be interested in having your weird skeleton doodles permanently placed on her body,” Izuru held up his hands, “but did you really not notice the little hearts and singing birds floating around her head every time she gazed longingly at you?”
“Since when do you know anything about cars?” Renji snapped.
“It looked fancy and I asked Shuuhei what it was, okay!”
On cue, Shuuhei burst back into the reception area, Momo close on his tail. “Are we talking about the hot client who has a crush on Abarai?”
“Did you ask her out?” Momo asked breathlessly.
“She’s not really his type,” Izuru mused. “Very corporate.”
Renji frowned. Did he have a type? If his type excluded people like Rukia Kuchiki, he might need to get a new type.
“Who cares, she was adorable!” Momo insisted. “I woulda asked her out.”
“Renji, if you go out with her, can you get me a ride in the Exige?” Shuuhei added.
“I’m not gonna ask her out!” Renji protested. “What happened to the no-hitting-on-clients rule?”
“The rule is no creeping on clients,” Shuuhei correctly. “This is different. She’s clearly into you, big time.”
“Also, she seems non-terrible, unlike the questionable human beings you usually take up with,” Izuru pointed out. “We could relax the rule if it netted you an actually decent partner for a change.”
Renji scowled judgmentally at Izuru, as if his own dating history had been remotely better before he and Shuuhei finally hooked up.
“Oh!” Momo waved her phone. “Speaking of which, I googled her, like you told me to, Izuru--”
“Izuru!” Renji protested.
“--and you were right! She’s not just one of the Kuchikis, she’s the granddaughter!” Momo thrust her phone in Renji’s face. It was some article about some fancy charity event, complete with a picture that was clearly Rukia, dressed in a dramatic black and gold evening gown.
Renji wanted to push Momo’s hand away, but he also didn’t want to stop looking at Rukia in that dress. “The who?” he asked.
Izuru and Momo sighed dramatically in synchronized exasperation.
“Embarrassingly rich old money family? I don’t know what they actually do, but they’re always in the newspapers, donating money for something or other--”
“Billionaire philanthropists,” Shuuhei intoned in a fake deep voice.
“--I heard they’re descended from some famous clan of samurai back in Japan,” Momo ignored him. She jerked her phone back and started tapping at it frantically. “I’m sure you’ve seen pictures of the grandson-- Rukia’s brother, I guess. He always makes those lists of top ten hottest bachelors.”
“He’s dreamy,” Shuuhei seconded.
“Impossibly dreamy,” Izuru thirded.
Momo flipped her phone around again, to reveal a picture of a very serious, and very handsome man in a classic three-piece wool suit. Renji supposed “impossibly dreamy” was not an inaccurate description.
“Yeah, I think I’ve seen pictures of that guy before,” Renji shrugged. “He’s okay. Rukia has a more interesting face, I think.”
Momo and Shuuhei exchanged raised eyebrows.
“You do like her, then?” Izuru asked, his face brightening. “You’re wrong, by the way, Byakuya Kuchiki has the face of an angel.”
“Rukia says he’s stuffy,” Renji shrugged. “And fine. I like her. She’s cute and nice and had good taste in tattoos. What’s not to like?”
“Are you gonna ask her out, then?” Momo pressed.
“Absolutely not,” Renji replied. “She’s my client. Besides, as you just pointed out, she’s loaded. What’s she want with a scumbag like me?”
All three of his friends groaned.
“You have good delts and sexy hair,” Izuru pointed out.
“You give amazing hugs!” Momo declared.
“You draw fantastic skeletons,” Shuuhei added. “Which, apparently, is relevant to her interests, and not a thing you usually find on Tindr.”
“Also, we’ve already established that she does like you, regardless of whether she has a valid reason for doing so,” Izuru concluded. “So, if you’re at all interested, you really shouldn’t let that stop you.”
“I think you should go for it,” Momo encouraged.
“Me, too,” Shuuhei agreed.
Renji grimaced. She was an amazing girl, too good to be true probably. If she had any sense at all, she would certainly turn him down. But maybe… just maybe… she didn’t have any sense. “Okay,” he grudgingly agreed. “I’ll do it. But not until I’m finished the damn tattoo!”

4 Year Anniversary
I’ve had this blog for 4 years now, it has certainly felt like eternity.
None of my blogs have lasted anywhere near this long, and while it ultimately failed (55 followers LMAO down from like 180 max) I’ve had fun. I haven’t changed much these 4 years but to you all I have. To me I am just more cynical, more depressed and hopeless (I’m still unreasonably edgy and I embrace that). I don’t like to think about those early times, when I wasn’t being the most cringe person here I was slowly ruining friendships by being incredibly annoying. Was it all my fault? Probably not, but oh well can’t change that shit. 
Going through these old interactions hurts but they were more innocent times, when people had fun with my nonsense. Back then the only lore I had was a disillusioned Reaper looking for anything to break the dread of being alive and making happy memories, and a member of a species all my own with a big heart and trauma just trying to live his long life the way he wants to. Kira was originally going to be the primary character on this blog but that didn’t last long. Nul was just one success after another and EVERYONE liked the character and his morbid humor. Kind worn it all out though. At least he didn’t become flanderized (seriously when’s the last time you heard Nul call someone a meatbag or pulled a cryptic prank on someone that wasn’t Bor?). He had some wonderful growth, shame Kira never got much. I built a whole universe and lore that I still love working on but its not suited for books, a graphic novel maybe, but not a book.
Every additional character has been a disaster to some extent: Nala was a massive mistake and I still don’t know why I made her (another world eater was a good idea but awfully executed), Olivia never fit and her threads were pathetic because they were impossible to write, I don’t regret Sun though he was a proper fucking addition that got a lot of interest but its sad that by then the interactions dried up, and I don’t want to think about Mason he was an attempt to make a more RP friendly character but all my interest in him died as soon as I posted that bio because I HAD DONE IT AGAIN! I MADE A CHARACTER THAT IS A TERRIBLE PERSON AND IS VERY DIFFICULT TO RP WITH! My verses interactions have been some of my favorites and I wish OCs in fandom RPCs weren’t shit on so hard, I would love to go back but all I can do are the custom protagonists or actual OCs and then I’d be repeating the cycle all over again.
Perhaps my time to leave was long ago, I just don’t got it anymore. I suppose it’s nice that people are here for me now, never really had that before. I’m not leaving anytime soon though (barring mental health forcing me to act irrationally) and I hope to make more friends and maybe by some miracle get this blog back in action.
Happy Birthday Beloved-Death
“I just love their interactions forgive me”
“ AHHHH i am super excited to see how it’s going to turn out!! it already sounds super interesting!!! i love the idea of reapers tbh and you’ve put a whole new spin on them i am totally game for this!!!! “
These two hurt so much. Back when people thought I was funny, engaging, original, and a joy to rp with. NGL my favorite people to write with, I had amazing chemistry with both. I had more trust back then too...
Nul had 2 friends at one point, that was perhaps the best point in my RP history. It felt wonderful. I don’t think I’ll ever chemistry again.
Let’s also not talk at all about the Sarg persona, that’s going to my grave.

Lmao Arata is a good character ngl, I would love to see what you make of him!!
As for Light, I do understand where you're coming from. And yeah, it's kinda easy to feel sorry for him, and kinda hard to actually hate him for what he did (apart from killing L ofc. That was his worst crime lmao). But like, I really the fact that while people do take note of how L was a human underneath his oddities and eccentricities (not everyone takes note of this either actually. It's just those like me and you who perhaps lile to look a little deeper and not label him as a "monster), the fact that Light too, was a human before he became Kira often gets ignored and pushed to the sidelines. Like, he did seem as a genuinely nice (a little uptight maybe, but nice), when he lost his memories, and I can't help but think what could have been if he hadn't found the Death Note.
And that's where most of my Light-related ideas stem from lmao. What would have happened if he had met someone when he had lost his memories, and fallen in love with them. Would he have rethought his actions when he got his memories back? Or would it have eventually turned to another toxic relationship like the one with Misa?
Did I go too much into detail lmao?
Oooh. You know Arata? That makes me so happy!!! Haha, I wanna see what I do with him too. Lol.
As for light, oooh. Reminds me of joker in the harley Quinn animated series, and how he was, like an actual decent person. You know? It might be very very possible. Especially at the time where he lost his memories, he was also in a place where he worked hard, and worked in the police force; and didn't seem bored tbh. Think it could've really gone well tbh. Also, I feel maybe Misa wasn't suited for light. Like, I think she's really nice and stuff, but that Light should be with someone who doesn't let them keep pushing and can see through any tactics. We know light is capable of being manipulative (as I L) and that requires some, "I'm not gonna support you 10000 percent in everything, even if, and especially when, it disregards me in the process" idk. Hahha.
Imo, with Misa, it would end up toxic somehow. And if not, since Misa may not worship him, he may just get bored(?) Cuz of the lack of intellectual stimulation. (in fairness Misa is smart too; but not in the way light is. He doesn't feel like the kinda guy who's looking for a "balance" per se. So idk.
Misa was really nice though, and it would be nice if she was with someone nice and understanding, especially from the pressures of being an idol, of sorts? Gotta be tiring and make you very insecure. Idk.
And nahhh. Not too much at all. It's also really nice to talk to you. 🍰💖

I know most people see the blondes and immediately think of the oversaturation and some of the poorly made dolls with blonde hair. I want to take a deep dive into each and give my options, thoughts, and things that couldn't been different. Also this is just my opinion, you don't have to agree! This is all light hearted also, let's get started!
Historicals:
Elizabeth- I know she had some controversy since her book didn't match the doll. Plus the rewrite that followed. I think, especially since her hair is wavy, she'd have been identical to Samantha. Aside from her pin curls. I honestly think the rework was understandable. Plus the doll to me reads similar to her character and personality in the books. While a doll like Samantha doesn't register quite the same. This one I can see both sides though. Other colors, like black could've worked too. I am a bit biased as I think Elizabeth is one of the prettiest AG dolls. However Black hair also would've been gorgeous.
Caroline- imagine she had black hair and the same striking green eyes! I don't think she's a bad doll by any stretch, but there seems to be no reason for her to be blonde. Any color of hair would've suited her. Plus a darker color hair and the same bright clothes and eyes would've been so striking and really drive home the vibes of the sea that she is supposed to embody. I honestly think I might send my Caroline to someone in the community to get her rewigged with a black colored wig instead!
Kirsten- I think a different shade of blonde and more historically accurate hairstyle wouldve suited her wonderfully! I don't have many opinions but I think her as a blonde isn't bad!
Nellie- i think her hair needs to be more strawberry blonde and less blonde blonde but otherwise the look suits her and its quite unique! I honestly wouldn't change her at all.
Kit-while Kits whole look is very iconic I don't think Kit necessarily needs blonde hair, I think a light brown would've also suited them! I think Kits look is pretty awesome, and super noticeable. But I don't think brown hair would dampen that at all. Brown hair, might have actually looked a bit nicer!
Maryellen- I have a few issues with her hair. I think its cute as is. But they should've totally made her a full red head with a more period accurate style! (While doing googling I noticed that a pony tail with bangs was a accurate style but idk it just feels the laziest of the options? If that makes sense) I noticed that most of the styles of the time are quite intricate and may be hard to replicate on a doll meant for kids. I found one that was popular among teens that I think Maryellen could've totaled rocked
Tumblr media
Julie- Why did she just have long straight hair? Yes it was a style but it was usually accompanied by layered or feathered look or bangs. A more shag type with long bangs would've looked awesome! Plus brown hair and brown eyes are much needed.
Courtney- I have no option because I don't plan on getting her ever, however if you like her thats great! When I look at her she's not 80s as the history she's 80s as the modern marketing pull. Her looks look like costumes or the modern reruns of the 80s looks. Especially her hair. I don't mean to be saltly on main but E
GOTY:
Kailey- ah! I think this blonde works. I can't remember what time this was; but I know that for a long time when I was a kid living a lifestyle close to the beach, especially in cali, was linked to blonde hair! It makes sense to me why she has blonde hair
Mia St. Claire- I'm unsure what the change should be but she definitely needs a new color. I think with her meet outfit a more alternative style would've been sweet! Maybe raccoon dye and sideswept bangs. I'm not sure her personality or style but the shoes really give me 2000s alternative vibes.
Gwen- She should've had a unique shade of brown! I think it would look best still a light color. A new brown would help her stand out since Sonali and Chrissa are so unique themselves and Gwen is easily confused with #12
Lanie- absolutely no changes, none. At this time being blonde was heavily tied to feminine things, being a "mean girl" or "popular girl" and things like makeup, clothes, traditionally "girly" things. Lanie subverts that perfectly. She loves nature and is a self proclaimed scientist. It's perfect!
McKenna- while I love McKenna a different hair color would've looked just as good! I don't have specific ideas, I think her hair is nice but also other colors would suit her too.
Isabelle- Another blonde that needs no changes. While yes at the time the blonde was starting to get redundant. I think the blonde hair is perfect for her, and her unique part and wig, plus the added colors. Make it definitely a good look.
Lea- Lea,, confuses me in so many ways. Shes a gorgeous doll sure. But why isn't she fully a doc, why is she blonde, etc. I hate to say that I'd want to change her as she is another stunning doll but a dark brown or black would've been super nice too!
Kira- I wish they took the Kira doll and made her a truly me, so we could get more unique truly mes and get another poc GOTY 😩 /lh
Tenney- she should've been a brunette period, it would've been so pretty! Her freckles and eyes with big brown hair, ah *chefs kiss*

1, 13, 16, 22, 30, 33, 38, 48, 54, 59, 64, 65-69 all for Tinsel lol (I know this is a lot so I wont ask your other characters for now unless you’re cool with more)
Ask and you shall receive
1 What does your character typically keep in their pockets?
Tinsel seems to just shove everything in their pockets and forget about it. Really if you give them something they'll probably carry it around for a few months. The mainstays are 1) extremely waterproof eyeliner 2) drawings from Cora 3) half eaten snacks.
13 If they were a body of water, what would they be?
Tinsel's got a lot of big emotions, never stays still and they can be pretty mercurial so I'd say they're a river.
16 What keeps them going?
Power of friendship, baybeee. Tinsel does have their own goals but they can get discouraged/distracted/insecure about stuff. They really thrive with external motivation.
22 What kind of person would they never side with?
Jealous or needlessly selfish people. They were raised in a big family so they were taught very early on not to be either of those things. Tinsel's sense of morality is a little skewed tbh so I feel like they could be talked into holding their nose and siding with shadier individuals. Especially if they're getting paid well. HOWEVER there's a hard, personal line against people who take advantage of young people with dreams.
30 What never gets old for your character? Something your character can’t get enough of?
Besides attention and taco bell, I think Tinsel would be the kind of person who constantly rewatches their favorite movies. It's kind of weird now that they're dating the person in their favorite movies but yeah. They also love I'm to infodump of they're comfortable enough to do it.
33 How do they feel about the unknown?
I think they're fine with the unknown now. I don't think they were as fine with it before they started adventuring because they mostly avoided their problems if they could lol. I think they're more comfortable with it now.
38 What fairytale/myth suits your character the best?
I honestly have no idea. They don't really fit the regular selkie stories and I'm not too well versed in other myths/fairytales.
48 What do they want to leave behind?
Oh, you know they want to drop all that baggage they have. They spent a while ignoring it or just jumping to the worse conclusion about things. Getting answers about their life seems to help them leave some of that trauma behind.
54 What is something they currently look forward to? What is something they dread?
They're looking forward to seeing their fiance and girlfriend again! But they're also excited to be back into adventuring after their break because they really like adventuring with their friends.
They dread when the prophecy thing coming around because it seems like a lot of pressure. They're also dreading their curse getting worse and telling their parents about their engagement.
59 What’s something your character has realized?
They recently realized that people aren't always just going to leave them. They were really worried about Riot up and leaving but the "should we get married? I think we should get married" thing really made them reconsider that fear.
I think Tinsel's also realizing people don't actually judge them as hard as they think they do. Like, they're not there all the way yet but it's coming.
64 What is one thing they want each party member to know?
Kira: I'm more honest with you than I am with most people. Not sure why that is.
Zona: I appreciate every nice thing you say about me. I wish I could put them in a scrap book.
65 Adoration or Intimidation?
Adoration!
66 Outward Passion or Quiet Rebellion?
Outward passion!
67 Selflessness or Self-Preservation?
Selflessness!
68 Objective or Subjective?
Subjective!
69 Journey or Destination? 
Journey!

DS9 Companion liveblogging (3/14)
From 2x01 “The Homecoming” to 2x13 “Armageddon Game”:
“Quark’s alter-ego, Armin Shimerman, was delighted to discover that Season 2 would establish him as quite ‘a ladies’ man,’ with liaisons of one sort or another in ‘Rules of Acquisition’ and ‘Profit and Loss’ and numerous flirtations in between. ‘I believe Quark’s had more relationships than anyone else on the show,’ Shimerman notes with pleasure.” This is cute. I like how no one is a bigger booster of Quark and Ferengi than Shimerman <3
On Bajoran fashion: “Kira’s recreational garb in the episode [2x02 “The Circle”], and also her outfit from the mission to the Hutet labor camp in ‘The Homecoming,’ represent a deliberate shift in Bajoran costuming enacted by Costume Designer Robert Blackman. ‘The color palette remained the same, the rust, green, and gold earth tones, but the textures changed,’ explains Blackman. ‘During the first season, the clothes on background Bajorans were flat-finished,’ a reflection of what the producers liked at that time. But as the show moved into its second season, says Blackman, ‘they felt that the clothing needed to have a rougher texture, that the wardrobe looked too sleek, like something you’d see at the Sherman Oaks Galleria’—a place made notorious in the 1980s by Frank Zappa’s satirical song ‘Valley Girl.’ Thus, Blackman chose to use loose knits, crochets, and ‘things over things’ for Kira’s off-duty clothes, ‘so that you would get a kind of buildup of texture on a Bajoran background.’ Blackman notes that the shift in costume design had synergy with changes in the look of the station’s Promenade. ‘It became more bazaarlike, with banners and more neon. It had been too utilitarian, too perfect.’”
For 2x04 “Invasive Procedures”: I didn’t realize the woman guest star in this episode also played the scientist in “Little Green Men.” And Tim Russ was one of the Klingons in this episode!
Interesting notes here on how this episode reveals sides of the characters that hadn’t been seen before: Bashir showing genuine affection for Jadzia; Sisko handling a hostage situation and in an up-close fight; Jadzia young and vulnerable and afraid without the Dax symbiont in her; Quark going far beyond the harmless criminal schtick he normally has and Kira drawing a line with him.
It surprises me that 2x05 “Cardassians” is really Garak’s SECOND appearance. He appears in the second ep of season 1 and then disappears for a whole season?! He becomes such a regular part of the cast and his closeness with Bashir is so well established and convincing that I feel like I falsely remembered him being around more than he actually was (onscreen).
I feel a bit dumb but I didn’t realize that “laying pipe” had, like, a non-sexual meaning? Ira Behr: “How do we take Garak and lay pipe?” Me: Oh my.
Anyway, interesting note that this is the first episode to establish a link between the Cardassian characters, Garak and Dukat.
I like this note on Garak learning to see Cardassian politics through Bashir’s eyes:
Tumblr media
“When offers of wine and women fail to win over Kot, Quark appeals to Odo for help. Although the constable enjoys seeing Quark squirm, he agrees to look into the situation.” - More suggestive Quodo lmao.
I love everything about this:
Tumblr media
The episode synopsis in this book says “Odo had become even more suspicious a short time later when he spotted Pallra kissing Dukat.” I got confused because I was like, "I don’t remember THAT happening." Looks like it was in the script and probably filmed but was cut at the editing stage (I’m guessing):
Odo comes out of a turbolift... moves down the corridor... stops at a corner as he hears voices: PALLRA (O.S.) Goodnight. GUL DUKAT (O.S.) Trust me. You have nothing to worry about. Odo peeks around the corner to see Gul Dukat is standing at Pallra's door... kissing her... Odo moves back behind the wall, reacting. ANGLE - ON DUKAT AND PALLRA as they break their kiss, Dukat smiles and she goes inside... he walks toward Odo, turns the corner and as he passes where Odo used to be, there is now a picture on the wall of Dukat and it's crooked... he walks by it, then stops, looks curiously at the picture, straightens it and leaves.
(Interesting that this demonstrates Odo using his shapeshifting for the first time to discreetly observe people.)
Interesting notes on 2x09 “Second Sight” about why the episode was unexpectedly weak. Interesting because I also thought that episode was weak but I wasn’t sure why. The reasons listed in the book are that they changed the love plotline from Bashir to Sisko, and the terraformer character ended up changing quite a bit and eventually ended up more eccentric and egotistical rather than tortured. The first one I agree changes the story quite a bit because I feel like Sisko is a bit too sensible to get much attached to a nice woman he meets for like a few seconds at a time, but Bashir would probably be intrigued and easily drawn in. I think the episode is an important one for Sisko, though, because it indicates he’s started to heal from Jennifer’s death, but other than that, the emotional stakes just seemed off/not there.
Interesting notes on all the Trek actor connections there are in the 2x10 “Sanctuary” episode.
“But somehow, aside from some positive comments about the racquetball sequences, the episode [2x11 “Rivals”] seems to have struck out with both viewers and crew. ‘Our e-mail fans really liked the tight suit that Bashir wore in the matches.’ Robert Hewitt Wolfe grins. ‘They liked that a lot.’” - lmao
I kind of liked "Rivals," though? It's not a very memorable episode if I'm being honest, but I liked seeing a character who is as slimy as Quark and the Bashir/O'Brien one-sided rivalry was comedy gold, and it's an important episode for establishing their relationship?
I did not know that the swindler character in this episode was the same race as Guinan, and originally intended to be her son! Also, he was originally conceived as a recurring rival for Quark, but the competitive dynamic didn’t really gel between the two so that was dropped. Probably okay, though, since we eventually got Brunt instead.
Interesting how there originally was the idea for Rene Auberjonois to play both Odo and Mora, and for Armin Shimerman to play both Quark and Ishka (lol), but in both cases the time-consuming makeup procedure made that intractable.
Not much to say about 2x13 “Armageddon Game” except it’s another good Bashir and O’Brien episode and Rosalind Chao is a great actress.

tell me who you’d take on a date and where you would go! — CLOSED
@thisbloghasnoaesthetic​ asked: Id love to take Jotaro on a date. Just something chill. Like getting some good food. Or just sitting together doing nothing. I'd love to just read a book with my head on his shoulder. Just enjoying eachothers quiet comfort :)
omg that sounds like a great date for Jotaro! he definitely seems like the type to want a chill date. he’d probably opt for something that offers takeout if you’re referencing Part 3!Joot, somewhere a little nicer but just as casual if you’re referencing Part 4!Joot. and while you’re reading, you might just catch a teeny, tiny smile on his lips. but don’t say anything or you’ll ruin the moment 🤭💕
anonymous asked: i would wanna take kakyoin out to an indoor roller rink so we could rollerskate together 🥺 it’s one of the things i like to do most and i’d wanna skate around w him while holding hands! also cause he’s tall, i feel like it’d be hard for him to keep balance and prevent himself from falling lolll. but we could go out to an ice cream place nearby afterwards and watch the sun set (if the time is right) 💗
how cute!! sharing something you love with the one you love most... I dig it. Kakyoin would be soooo embarrassed, though! he just wants to impress you but his center of gravity is absolutely awful. rip. at the end of the day, however, he’d be so appreciative that you shared something so personal with him. ❤️ let him pay for the ice cream, it’s the least he can do!! and maybe hold your hand while you watch the sunset 🌅
@lavaicerinkk​ asked: I would ask mista, probably to like a concert or something like that. We'd probably go as homies, then when we get home id be like "what if we kissed haha" and hed be like 😳😳 ok, and then we live happily ever after
LMAAAAOOOOO. I feel like this is v in character for Mista.... he’d be caught so off guard by it! esp since he probably would’ve accepted that you were just friends. not that he’d say no, tho 👀 he’d just be like, “wait, for real?” and waste no time kissing you after you gave him permission. what a happy ending. 💕
@murcx04​ asked: Take someone on a date huh hmmmmm- Josuke is my bet HAHA Hed be so refreshing to be with óuò. And we'd go shopping kfbfjfn And that where- he'll just show his pleading eyes and want you to buy the shoes he wants oh boy-
I agree, he would be a very refreshing plus one! I think a shopping date would be v traditional with him. I’m imagining you both at the mall, where he cackles at all the weird sex stuff at Spencer’s and shares his food court soft pretzel with you. 🥨 he probably wouldn’t explicitly say that he wants new shoes, but he’d nudge you and be like, “hey. if you wanna know what to get me for my birthday...” and point to the Air Force 1′s on display. so subtle. 🙄
anonymous asked: tbh i think i'd like to take kira out to dinner and go on a walk. i know its a simple date but i think he's really neat and i don't really like big or flashy events and i don't think he would either kjfnksnjks. its just sumn that would suit both of us nice
ooo interesting choice, nonnie! I 100% agree with you on this one. Kira would probably take you to one of those restaurants that have private rooms. I think some ritzier places are like that? anyway, he’d want to focus this date all on you. no mindless chatter from other patrons, no screaming children — the more noise he can minimize, the better. and during your walk, I can see him allowing you to take the reins on the conversation. he just finds everything you say so fascinating! 🌷💗
@catnymous​ asked: I'd take Fugo first to just a simple lil cafe then to the park :3
Cat!! I missed you!! you should come into the askbox more often, I always enjoy your replies. in the meantime, Fugo probably overthinks a lot so this date would be casual enough for him to relax. he would probably opt for some coffee and a slice of cake that he can share with you 🍰❤️ and a stroll through the park would be the perfect way to walk off the calories! (plus when you get to a fountain he’ll probably make some corny wish about getting to spend more days with you like this a;sdfkjl)
anonymous asked: Idk if you’re familiar with part 7... but I would bring Johnny to the planetarium; it’s a place that I love, and bringing him to a place special to me would mean a lot, I think. I’d tell him all of my favorite things about space. And, it’s a little mushy, but I’d remind him that just because you can’t always see the stars doesn’t mean they’re not there; every one is special and the same is for people. And of course, it would be a fun day out to appreciate the beautiful things in the world
unfortunately, I’m not familiar with Part 7... :( but thank you so much for sharing nonetheless! this is such a heart-warming confession 💕 I wish there was more I could say; I love that you’d share all your favorite things about space, and how everything and everyone is special. 💫 such a beautiful confession. 
@serenityblaze44​ asked: I would take Bruno and/or Abbacchio to a conservatory or garden, maybe bring a picnic. Nothing too exciting, just time to relax and spend time together. Then go home for cuddles.
por que no los dos? ahaha nah I’m joking... unless 👀 no but for real, this sounds ideal for both of them! ❤️ they would both appreciate the time to unwind. I could see Abbacchio prepping all the food, while Bucciarati handles everything else (packing the blanket, utensils, alcohol, etc.). they’d probably opt for somewhere outside of Naples since it’s far too crowded in the city. afterwards, be prepared for a gr8 nap between two warm, loving boys!!
anonymous asked: I'd take Kakyoin on a date! I think it would be really fun to go somewhere like an amusement park or arcade so we could just kinda be stupid together and forget our problems. Id go on the Ferris wheel and try to kiss him at the top but he'd probably shake the cart the whole time to freak me out 😂😂 After everything he's gone through, he deserves to have a lot of fun and id love to see him smile 🥰😍
aw friend, this is such a sweet scenario! hopefully the Ferris wheel doesn’t give him too many bad memories of Death Thirteen though ope,, anyway, what a lovely way to forget about all the stuff he’s endured! he’d playfully challenge you to some arcade games (and I’m using “playfully” lightly here) and then destroy you. 🙄 but it’s okay, any tickets he gets will immediately go to a cute stuffed animal just for you 🧸
@hadesaedes​ asked: OOOH I’d have to go with either Yukako or Koichi (even tho i have like TWO hands either is fine). Yukako is a very passionate and strong lover which I LOVE cause im shy with affection so being bold with it is MWUAH. While Koichi is also passionate I like to think he enjoys more simple and low key dates which is my type of thing. Having to just bask in each other’s company without having to fill the silence is GREAT. THEY ARE BOTH GREAT!!! In this essay I will-
AHHH A+ CHOICES, FRIEND. Yukako and Koichi would spoil you so much!! they’d handle any date expenses (movie tickets, food, etc.) and would adore having any opportunity to hold your hand 😊 Yukako would probably be more physically affectionate; she’ll either have her hand on top of yours or her feet wrapped between yours when sitting. Koichi would opt for compliments, praising you on how cool and smart you are! wow, what a supportive pair 🤝
anonymous asked: It's very hard to choose, but I'd go on a date with Bruno. Idk I'm just very gay for him. He knows a lot of nice and fancy places in Naples, but since that's not really my world, I'd take him to a small coffee shop or something. Nothing fancy or expensive but still very enjoyable. Maybe some ice cream. Walking through the city and going to a restaurant in the evening. Maybe something fancy this time, or just a simple pizza
how lovely!! Bucciarati would honestly be open to try anything, but I think a small coffee shop would be v enjoyable for him. there’s so much you can learn about someone over a cup of joe. ☕ since he’s been living in / around Naples his whole life, he’d probably share some neat facts about the city while on your stroll! “the Amalfi Coast is best known for its limoncello liqueur. I know a great place to try it if you’re interested.” 🍋
@moloko-tyan​ asked: Hello, little bird💫sending you rays of love and positive energy! This new event is so much fun. Several hours I wondered with who I wanted to go out, ahah. And I think it would be Erina. She deserves to have fun especially after all those awful events in her life. We would go to atelier. We could go through fabrics to choose which fits the best. We would look at lovely laces, buttons, jewels and we would argue about models of dresses and evening gowns. I want her to feel safe🌻 thank u so much!
friend! I always get so excited when you pop into my askbox!! ty for participating 💕 Erina is such a great choice imo. and this is such a creative date! she’d have so much fun running her fingers over all the interesting fabrics. Erina would take the most beautiful dresses and hold them up against you, saying how lovely the color suits you. 👗 although she’d be too shy to try those dresses on herself, she would have so much fun spending the day with you!!
anonymous asked: I hope it's okay to send this (I honestly don't want you to get overwhelmed)! But if it's okay: I would love to take Fugo on a date! I love this boy with all my heart and I would love to travel with him to my country to a town next to the sea and give him a tour of its history (and visit the local art and history museums there)! And later grab some ice cream and walk along the seafront in the evening where there are less people and just enjoy the walk together as the sun sets. -Turtle Anon🐢
oooohh, Turtle Anon!! thank you for your concern. you’re all good, don’t worry! anywho, that’s a wonderful date for Fugo. he would have an absolute blast reading about all the art and history your country has to offer 🏛️ you might have to push him along though, he’s the type to absorb everything n really slow down when reading... but at the end of the day, as you’re walking along the beach, he’d thank you for sharing a part of yourself with him. he’d be so honored! ☀️
anonymous asked: tbh i'd love to take narancia on a super spontaneous date... only the date and time are set, the entire day is just going around town and doing whatever stupid fun random things,, eating street food and going into shops to try on random fits and running around laughing, mayhaps go to an arcade, or do some karaoke. and then wind down at like a mcdonalds late at night, tired but happy and satisfied.. hhh nara is v fun i just wanna hang out w him honestly 🤕😔🤕😔
yeeeess this is the perfect date for Narancia!! he loves spontaneous stuff like this. he’d have so much fun gorging himself on street food and playing around with weird fits. he’d probably put on the stupidest things he can find, like this. and if you go to karaoke, be ready to screech some absolute bangers. he will not take anything less than confident (yet bad), loud (yet joyous) singing. 🎤 n while he might be falling nodding off at the McDonald’s, he’d sleepily tell you how amazing the day was and how he wants to do this again 💕
@tomomi012​ asked: I'm going to share another ideal date idea, but with Kakyoin. I'd like us to go to one of those cat cafes in Japan. I mean, cats, coffee and a cute Japanese boy, is this heaven? and I would tell him: "Nori, today I am in heaven"
ofc, share all you want! omg... I love this idea..... Kakyoin would be so soft anytime a cat approaches him. he’d do a little “pspsps” and hold out his finger for them to smell. and once a cat actually nudges him, he’d just melt! he wouldn’t show it outwardly, but you can see it in how bright his eyes get. I think Kakyoin would be the type to either attract a ton of cats or cats hate him, there’s no in between. 😭❤️ both make for some gr8 scenarios, though! 
@pommmejuice​​ asked: for your post about taking a character on a date :,) i think i’d like to take abba to art museums/cultural centers ,, i’d love to talk to him about my culture and what life is like (if he’d be interested;; lol) n maybe afterwards while we get italian food he can talk to me about what italian culture is like, the parts that aren’t shown in the media 🥺 so uh a date where we’re both learning new things about each other hehe
n maybeeeee take fugo to a café where we can study together n talk about our favorite things in our lives/culture.... n maybe hold hands on the table and maybe stare into his eyes tenderly ... you know because he’s my BFF (Best Friend Forever) .. you know how best friends do.. 😳
ooo Ireeene I figured you’d say Abbacchio :3c but that’s such a cute date for him! ofc he’d be interested in learning more about you!! you wouldn’t see it, but every time you share something you that you love about your culture, Abbacchio’s gaze on you would be so loving... 💖 he adores that you’re sharing so personal with him (of all people!!). and he’d get a kick out of telling you misconceptions about Italy. don’t get him started on how much he hates the Mario Bros.
as for Fugo, he would react similarly. I could see him ask more questions about your culture, while Abbacchio lets you go on and on. he’s so interested in everything about you!! and the moment you hold his hand... wow... get ready to see some intense blushing... he wouldn’t pull away, but his attention would turn to something else and his stutter would be apparent. pull yourself together, Fugo! 😤
anonymous asked: I'd take Rohan on a date, I'm a lil gay for that trash man. Tbh, it would either be an amazing date or a total disaster. I think we'd plan something fun and relaxing, like going to an art gallery or seeing a movie, but we'd end up in an adventure because that's what keeps happening to Rohan for some reason. At the end of the day we'd go to a restaurant to put a normal ending to that strange day
HAHAHA omggg friend this is a pretty accurate description of Rohan’s life. I think he’d be really annoyed that the day ended up this way, but he’s glad that he got to spend it with someone he tolerates. 💕 Rohan would try to push past those feelings once you go to the restaurant. this date is still salvageable!! he might complain a lil, but ultimately, he’d try to focus on you and what you enjoyed 🥰
@xxbluejayxx​ asked: For the Jojo date thing, I'd take Abbacchio. Well not really picky about the kind of date, I feel a nice quiet one at home would be best. It could be a homemade dinner, a movie night, or both. When it comes down to it, for me anytime spent with someone I love is time well spent, and that is something I will willingly admit
this is such a peaceful date for Abbacchio! I agree, a quiet date at home would be best. 😊❤️ as I mentioned in other scenarios, he’d likely take over kitchen duties. no need to worry about anything, just tell him what you want and he’d whip it up for you! and when it comes time to watch the movie, he’d tell you to sit a lil closer to him... he’s not very good with verbalizing affection, but he loves when he can feel your skin against his.
anonymous asked: I reeally wanna take Polnareff on a date. He deserves it sooo much. He's such a handsome sweetie. Id turn on the charm for him for once, like he always does. I have a beautiful image in my head of an outdoor patio restaurant with hundreds of strings of lights. We both dress up and have a lovely meal under the stars and magical lights, and then our favorite song plays and we have a dance beneath the lights. I think it would be goofy and romantic, stepping on toes as we attempt to dance around 😍
ahhh Polnareff would be so flattered to have you flirt with him! he’d probably get a lil flustered since this is nicer than what he’s used to, but seeing you dressed to the nines would make make him go 🥵 likewise, he’d push himself through the situation by just focusing on you. and when you start dancing... wow!! he’d lose himself laughing and being absolutely miserable at showing his moves. but it doesn’t matter, because he’s here with you and everything is okay ⭐
@rat-makes-stuff asked: Ok so I would take Giorno back to my home state of Michigan. Mafia boss has got to be tired as hell, so what's better than walking through the woods and collecting rocks at Lake Huron (I'm biased that's my favorite lake no CAP). We would watch the sun set and then look at the stars when they come out. Wildflower picking, trying to see how many deer we can find, and picnics by the lake? Yes pleaseee
before I start, Tumblr wasn’t letting me tag you in this!! so I hope you still see my response :( anyway, this is such a relaxing date! Don Giorno would love to unwind in nature. he’d probably take some stones he found near Lake Huron and turn them into a bouquet of flowers for you! 💐and since he’s probably never seen the sky without light pollution, he’d be astonished at how beautiful the sky is. he wouldn’t be able to say anything, just pull you close to him and thank you for taking him out here 🌠
