AITA for telling an old friend of mine not to come to Friendsgiving?
I (F, 26) have been hosting a Friendsgiving at my place for six years running. It’s a pretty big event, and usually ~25 people show up, but there’s a core group of five high school friends of mine that always come. We also prepare for the event together (baking pies, brining turkeys, singing Billy Joel, etc etc) Two of these friends were dating until a month ago (that’s an eight-year relationship). One of my friends (F, 25, we’ll call her R) cheated on my other friend (F, 26, we’ll call her L), for an extended period of time (5 months with several different people, including a close mutual friend of theirs who she is now dating). L found out and ended the relationship. I am still talking to both of them.
Now here’s where it gets complicated. L will not come if R comes, and R will not come if L comes. I love them both but they’re stubborn like that. R also wants to bring her new partner (NB, 28, we’ll call them X). However, L has been completely heartbroken for the past month. She quit her job, stopped eating, the whole enchilada. She’s been a mess, to put it lightly. As a friend group (along with her mom), I think we’ve managed to do a pretty decent job of taking care of her.
I should also add that X has dated and cheated upon another friend of mine (M, 26) who will be there. X has also fought with my partner and several of her friends. I’m not a huge fan of X, but whatever. Moving on.
A week ago, I received a text from R asking what dish I’d like her to bring for Friendsgiving. After much deliberation and several discussions with my partner (the event is hosted at our house), I told R that it wasn’t a good idea for them to join us for Friendsgiving. I was sad to do so, but I don’t want to but L in that position after a really rough breakup. I also think that the breakup is entirely R’s fault, so the burden of providing space should be on them. I also don’t want to inflict X upon my partner and guests, and I told R almost exactly that.
Since then, Ive received quite a few messages from friends and guests telling me that disinviting R was a rude thing to do. I’ve also gotten suggestions to simply lie to both L and R, but I really don’t want to do that. I’d love to have R at my Friendsgiving, but I don’t think that it’s wise to do so at this time. They’re welcome to come next year after things have cooled down a bit.
So after all that:
Am I the Asshole for telling R not to come to Thanksgiving, even though it’s tradition?
sorry for all the information and thank you for your feedback!
What are these acronyms?

Without You [Yoongi x Reader, Hobi x Reader] — HIATUS
A clean break.
That’s all y/n wants for her messy, complicated, and seemingly endless friends with benefits arrangement with Min Yoongi. But that seems to be the last thing he’s willing to give her.
When she moves halfway around the world, forcing the end of their arrangement, she discovers he’s left her with a gift that will alter the course of her life forever.
Will she go back to Yoongi or will a rekindled relationship with the estranged Jung Hoseok come between them?

Hi, need some advice
I’m 28 and my wife is 26, we’ve been married for 4 years and she’s wants a baby. She asked during our first year of marriage but I said no because I thought we were to young and I wasn’t financially stable enough, but honestly there were just excuses. She recently asked again and I don’t know what to say. I think we’re both old enough, I make great money at my current job, we have the space, but part of me is scared. What if I’m a bad parent. My parents were not the best, my dad was in the military and almost never around when he was home, and my mom left whenever my dad was home and would only show up when he was deploying. I work in a corporate setting so I make well over 6 figures, but I’m gone almost 3 to 4 months of the year due to business deals and meetings. And I don’t wanna be like my parents and never there for my kid. I wanna give my kid everything I didn’t have but I’m scared I’ll just end up like my parents( My dad). My wife has been so supportive of me and has helped me get to where I am now and I feel like the least I could due is give her baby, but I don’t know how to tell her how I’m feeling about it.
Wanting to have and raise kids is the first and best step to becoming a good parent. If you did not want kids or you were hesitating because you did not want the committment of children it would be a whole different thing. If you don't want kids don't have kids. If you are happy at the thought of raising a family and the work seems worth it and something you and your wife can handle together then absolutely move forward.
We are not destined to be our parents or repeat their faults, especially when we are aware of the mistakes they might have made, whether intentional or accidentally.
As far as travel is concerned, kids can handle that especially in this age of technology and things like zoom, facetime etc. I know families in which on parent travels quite a bit and they have built in to their routine Marco Polo videos, zoom calls and even letter writing as a way to stay engaged and have fun connecting without little kids getting too bored.
Your wife should have lots of on ground support in your absence. Having a built in (or two or three) emergency sitter just in case is a great relief. Make sure you have a good pet boarding facility and are in good standing if you have dogs or cats so that if something were to arise she has back up when you are away. Putting in place these kinds of support take a lot of worry off the table. A cleaning service can help as well as a decent list of good places she can call for things like car problems, plumbing and other household repairs.
Take time from your job (you probably get adoption or maternity leave even if you are not the birth mom) to bond with an new arrival, baby or not. The first few months are important to establish a relationship with both new borns or older kids in the case of adoption or foster.
When you are home you don't have to over compensate for your absence. Your child and wife will have a routine in place, don't disrupt that too much. It will stress you and them out. Just becasue you have been gone you don't need to "make up lost time" if you have been communicating with your family while away. Make sure you take time for your wife and don't feel guilty for getting a baby sitter once in a while, you still need your intimate connection (grown up time) with each other.
Lots of families are healthy and happy with both parents working 40 plus hours and barely making ends meet. If creating and nuturing a family is what you both want, go for it.

Brain worms still there, watching menacingly.
Ages:
Death of the king
Miranda 28
Eva 2
Alcina 15
Salvatore 14
Karl 8
Donna 8 (two months younger than Karl, who enjoys remarking often)
Angie birth
Miranda 32
Eva 6
Alcina 19
Salvatore 18
Karl 12
Donna 12
War start
Miranda 33
Eva 7
Alcina 20
Salvatore 19
Karl 13
Donna 13
Angie 1
Miranda knew that war was going to happen soon, so she was playing chess with her subjects and the rebels in the enemy kingdom, making sure that when push come to shove the war would be ended definitely and fast. The ceasefire was temporary and fragile, but she not wanted to be the one to broke it because se wanted to create a good reputation for the kingdom ( good ally, strong and stable) and it worked.
Ouside after the war and the plague, she is considered strict but benevolent, a ruler that is close to the gods but knows the pain of the mortals (for better or worse the death of Eva played a big role in that) and is cruel but efficient dealing with the threats at the kingdom, did hanging the decapitated head of the enemy king his linage was a bit excessive? Yes but was reasonable (again she made sure to move the strings needed make everything go her way).
This knowledge is the reason why she not pick fights with Karl, because she knew it and still did nothing, so she accepts his hatred as punishment.
Plague
It happen barely a month later that the alliance was formed.
Miranda 34
Eva 8
Alcina 21
Salvatore 20
Karl 14
Donna 14
Angie 2
Aftermath
Miranda 35
Alcina 22
Salvatore 21
Karl 15
Donna 15
Angie 3
Bela, Cass and Daniela 6
The difference between Karl and Donna situations as head of the their houses are the next:
The servants of the Heisenberg house respect/like Karl meanwhile most of the Beneviento not respect/like Donna.
Karl was raised to be proud of himself and to stand up for his decision and the consequences of them; Donna was raised to be a shadow helper never in the spotlight and whatever decisions she made were to be dealt together with Claudia.
Donna as the older surviving member of the Beneviento family had the responsibility of taking care of the youngest member (food, education, health, etc) everything that concerns with the raising of children. She was very involved with Angie BUT all the responsibilities were in the hands of her mother and sister.
The matrimony between Alcina/Mia a Karl/Ethan happened after three years.
Miranda 37
Alcina 25
Mia 22
Bela, Cass and Daniela 9
Salvatore 24
Karl 18
Ethan 19
Donna 18
Angie 6
Rose birth
Miranda 39
Alcina 27
Mia 25
Bela, Cass and Daniela 11
Salvatore 26
Karl 20
Ethan 21
Donna 20
Angie 8
Now the ships in this au are:
Alcina/Mia
Karl/Ethan
Salvatore/Urias
Miranda, Donna and the girls are free game I guess. But again if I'm cooking I'm gonna use the meat that I want to so there will be a Reader/OC situation.

Amusement Park Prompts
1. A and B are so focused on one another that they lost the group they came with.
2. A and B are getting into an argument while standing in the queue/riding the roller coaster/etc.
3. A is exhausted after spending the day at the amusement park, and B thinks they are incredibly cute when they are like that.
4. A (secretly) buys a souvenir for B.
5. A and B work for an amusement park as costumed characters – characters that are a couple/rivals. A disliking/having a crush on B makes this whole thing easier/a complicated mess.
6. A and B’s friends make them sit together on a ride.
7. A has prepared themselves meticulously for their day at the amusement park. The route they’ll take, the rides they’ll go on,… It would be a disaster if something went wrong.
8. A and B watch a show together.
9. A really doesn’t want to leave the amusement park when it is closing for the day.
10. Their friend group/A and B plan to pose for the amusement park ride photo. (It isn’t going smoothly.)
11. A is too short to go on a certain ride.
12. A holds B’s hand/buries their face in B’s shoulder while on a ride.
13. A (and B) flee(s) from the park’s mascot/hired costumed character that seems to follow them.
14. A and B temporarily split up to visit different attractions. (And A starts to panic when B doesn’t show up at the agreed upon time.)
15. A and B have an unplanned screaming match when the roller coaster/etc. drops.
16. A is visiting the amusement park for the first time.
17. At the end of the day, A and B watch the firework display together.
18. Seeing the couple standing in front of them in the queue displaying their love makes A miss B.
19. A and B try to find out on how many attractions they can make out on before the day is over.
20. Working for an amusement park, a place where everyone seems to have fun, is difficult when A’s life is a mess.
21. A shares some of their amusement park food/snack with B.
22. A meets stranger B, who is as obsessed with this specific ride as they are, in the queue.
23. A is afraid of heights but attempts to go on a ride (e.g. the Ferris wheel) for B.
24. A has spent most of the day screaming (and laughing) on the rides. Now their voice is hoarse.
25. Raindrops start to fall, the weather threatening to cut A and B’s day in the amusement park short.
26. A meets the (costumed) character in the amusement park that they loved as a child. B wonders if they should be jealous/envy them when they see A’s excitement.
27. A invites B to the amusement park, not expecting the whole friend group to come with them.
28. A and B lose sight of one another in the amusement park despite their best attempt to stay together.
29. A wins a plushie for B. (Maybe they should have played the game later in the day since they now have to carry it everywhere with them.)
30. A brings up the possibility to get married in the amusement park.
31. Goosebumps erupt on A’s skin as they walk through the empty amusement park (after work).
32. When A hears a certain song coming from one of the shops/the parade/etc., they start to dance (, asking B to join them).
33. A and B had so much fun at the amusement park that they forgot to (re-)apply their sunscreen.
34. Thanks to the ride, A is euphoric and blurts something out that they tried to keep a secret/confesses something to B.
35. Being at the amusement park gets too overwhelming for A (e.g. because of too many people/sounds) and they, together with B, search for a quiet spot.
36. A randomly runs into their ex/(ex) friend/crush B while visiting the amusement park.
37. A’s wide grin is the first thing B sees after wiping the water from their face, the water ride momentarily forgotten.
38. The ride is only meant for couples, so A pairs up with stranger B.
39. The queue A and B are standing in is moving slowly. (So, they start playing a game/use it to be that annoying couple).
40. A struggles to stay in character when their friends/crush joke(s) around/flirt(s)/etc. with their costumed character. (Do they know it’s them hiding underneath the costume?)
41. A and B visit the souvenir shop together.

43. A and B kiss/hold hands while enjoying the carousel, sitting on different horses/etc.
44. The amusement park ride photo of A and B is something. (And still,) A buys it.

my official ranking of (basically) every song by hozier
(ignoring some collabs/songs from soundtracks etc)
(this is just my opinion no one shout at me)
(he has no Bad songs, only Less Brilliant ones)
52) To Noise Making (Sing) (the sing chorus at the end goes on just *that* bit too long
51) Sunlight (slightly repetitive)
50) Nobody (maybe this is controversial? does however contain one of my favourite lyrics “it’s suicide Tuesday back in LA”)
49) Sedated (the lowest ranked song of his self titled album and it’s not because it’s not good it’s because his discography is fucking insane)
48) Someone New (only ranked this low because it was very overplayed in Ireland when it came out)
47) Almost (Sweet Music) (this was never my favourite song but who can resist “i laugh like me again she laughs like you”)
46) Son of Nyx (hozier made the best study music song of all time)
45) Wasteland, Baby! (sounds exactly like the album feels, if that makes sense?)
44) Swan Upon Leda (would be higher but i keep accidentally forgetting to add it to my playlist because it’s not on an album. also Free Palestine)
43) Better Love (hozier’s voice is so beautiful)
42) Dinner & Diatribes (ever since someone said he sounds like Count von Count in this song i can’t un-hear it)
41) It Will Come Back (so sexy. one of the sexiest songs in his oeuvre)
40) NFWMB (an under appreciated classic. i remember playing this in the car when my dad was dropping our friend’s kid to school and getting in trouble for the cursing)
39) The Parting Glass - Live from The Late Late Show (not only a beautiful rendition, but it was also performed during covid when everyone was feeling very hopeless and he just captivated ireland for a few short moments. gorgeous)
38) Anything But (we are reaching the territory of songs that are so goddamned good that it feels a crime they are so low down. he has dozens of such songs)
37) In the Woods Somewhere (eerie vibes which are beautiful and exacerbated when you find out he based this on a dream he had)
36) To Be Alone (again, CRIMINAL that this is so low down. blame hozier having so many good songs. don’t blame me)
35) Angel of Small Death and the Codeine Scene (a bop AND a banger AND a jam. triple threat)
34) Damage Gets Done (their voices are soooo beautiful together)
33) Be (“When Atlas acts the maggot” is one of Hozier’s best Irish culture lines)
32) The Jackboot Jump - Live (BUT THE JACKBOOT ONLY JUMPS DOWN ON PEOPLE STANDING UP!!!)
31) Shrike (this song made me cry when i first heard it and i am Not one to cry)
30) To Someone From a Warm Climate (Uiscefhuaraithe) (GAEILGE MENTION!!!!)
29) Jackie and Wilson (one of my first ever favourite hozier songs)
28) Talk (i love the myth of orpheus and eurydice and i ALSO imagine being loved by hozier)
27) Moment’s Silence (Common Tongue) (blowjobs)
26) Eat Your Young (hozier wrote this for all first year trinity students who had to read Swift for their intro to irish writing lectures)
25) All Things End (don’t be sad. we begin again :). hozier said so)
24) I, Carrion (Icarian) (soft, sad, beautiful. like hozier)
23) Nina Cried Power (feat. Mavis Staples) (also very overplayed in Ireland but this time it really deserved it!!)
22) Cherry Wine - Live (one of the most beautiful and recognisable guitar bits of all time. yes i said guitar bits i don’t know anything about guitars)
21) As It Was (the drug the dark the light the flame…)
20) First Time (“anyway”)
19) Who We Are (makes me feel like my chest is being lifted to god)
18) No Plan (“As Mack explained, there will be darkness again” is one of the all-time great Hozier lyrics actually)
17) Would That I (it’s illegal for anyone to dislike this song)
16) De Selby (Part 2) (he wants to run against the world that’s turning!! he moves so fast that he’d outpace the dawn!!)
15) De Selby (Part 1) (AN ENTIRE VERSE AS GAEILGE)
14) Like Real People Do (once again, how is this so low? hozier is too good. “we should just kiss like real people do” lyrics of all time)
13) Butchered Tongue (i wrote an entire essay post about this song. with citations)
12) From Eden (time has maybe made us forget just how fucking insanely good this song is. IDEALISM SITS IN PRISON CHIVALRY FELL ON HIS SWORD INNOCENCE DIED SCREAMING. also reminds me of verse 2 of Human by The Killers)
11) Work Song (WHEN MY TIME COMES AROUND LAY ME GENTLY IN THE COLD DARK EARTH. NO GRAVE CAN HOLD MY BODY DOWN. I’LL CRAWL HOME TO HER. also special mention for: “in the low lamp light i was free” aka the name of one of my criminal minds fanfics. moving on)
10) Run (SOOOOO underrated. literally rare is this love keep it covered! run to me run to me lover! run until you feel your lungs bleeding!)
9) Movement (i played this song every day on repeat for 2 months when i was 17)
8) Arsonist’s Lullabye (wario of better love. don’t ask me how or why)
7) In a Week (feat. Karen Cowley) (the most gorgeous beautiful song of all time their voices are perfect for each other - I’D BE HOME WITH YOU)
6) First Light (BUT AFTER THIS IM NEVER GONNA BE THE SAME!!! AND I AM NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!)
5) Francesca (AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. URGAAAHHHHHHHH. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I’D TELL THEM PUT ME BACK IN IT!!!!!! DARLING I WOULD DO IT AGAIN!!!!!! IF I COULD HOLD YOU FOR A MINUTE!!!!! DARLING I’D GO THROUGH IT AGAIN!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)
4) Unknown / Nth (DO YOU KNOWWWWW I COULD BREAK BENEATH THE WEIGHT OF THE GOODNESS LOVE I STILL CARRY FOR YOU!!!! he had no right to sing this. and as beautifully as he does. makes me cry. sha-la-la)
3) Abstract (Psychopomp) (this wasn’t originally my favourite when i first listened to Unreal Unearth has grown on my heart and will not let go. did you know the memory hurts but does me no harm. and did you SEE HOW IT SHINESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
2) Take Me To Church (this being his debut single. DEBUT. SINGLE. no one else was doing it like him. the vocals the lyrics god the beautiful lyrics the MUSIC VIDEO!!!! ireland’s best living artist.)
1) Foreigner’s God (my favourite song of all time. no notes. utterly perfect in every way.)

The Stormlight Archive Volume 1: The Way of Kings’ Review: Chapter 28 + Interludes 1-4 - 1-6
Tumblr media
Hello hello hello, I am back, again, with another edition of ‘This Book Delights in Not Respecting the Structured Chunks I Planned to Write on’ bc naturally there had to be ONE chapter in between the previous part and interludes so they’re getting smushed together. No cool accompanying image this part bc all I have done is sit inside and do nothing so enjoy Twilight and mess (and technically Twilight counts as research for my final year project as I’m doing it on vampires so technically I’m working rn). 
Honestly, I think Brando delights in making me forget that Szeth exists only for him to re-emerge and fill my head with his stupid ass name (see one of the previous parts for my inital anger and outrage). All in all tho, I do love the interludes, they have such a palate cleansing vibes after the end of chapter 28 that help you kind of get over the wtf before moving on to the rest of the story. I will never understand when I hear that people skip or disregard them.
Spoiler Free Zone: 
With being so busy recently, I honestly forgot what happened in chapter 28 bc I read it so long ago now it seems but it does not disappoint skimming over it again. Not necessarily the whole chapter, I honestly didn’t have much tabbed, but the Dalinar character development and tHE END?? besties...
Brando’s book structuring is great. Minus the interludes (which again if any of you out there are skipping these ur so wrong for that), this feels so much like a Victorian three volume novel, which for those unfamiliar (tho it kind of speaks for itself) was a form book release under the serialisation umbrella that was popular at the time (for example the Bronte’s Wuthering Heights and Agnes Grey, as the two were too short for a traditional three volume release, were released together in the three volume format). Naturally this is my lit student side coming out but I feel like this isn’t done enough and it makes for an interesting structure. Ok, nerd moment over.
The interludes themselves, I mean, always iconic. I love the world building element it brings as even having a multi-perspective narrative, considering how expansive the universe is, is limiting to the possibilities you can explore in this. READ THE INTERLUDES AND APPRECIATE THEM. 
*SPOILERS BELOW (I FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO THE KEEP READING THINGY TY EVERYONE)*
Spoiler Zone:
And now, the epigraph for this part had me like so ready for this chapter. I was like thinking this shit right here just feels like theres something coming. Now initially I was a little disappointed bc I was thinking this just feels like an average chapter like I’m not seeing anything I feel like tabbing am I missing sections???
Then Navani comes in and starts chatting up my home slice Dalinar and I am like I was sensing tension earlier but more in the traditional sense over romantic tension like what is going on. But like this isn’t the climax I know it isnt.
BUT DALINAR ABDICATING ??? I know its bc like everyone is disrespecting my guy and he needs Adolin to fill the role so nothing like shady can happen but I was like floored man. For it to be then followed by interludes? Bro like just shoot me bc I have to read them its who I am.
It was interesting to see different character perspectives and locations etc in the interludes tho it always is. I love how Brando uses his writing at times to portray clear moral messages like in interludes 1-4 with the farmers as a respected population amongst the Shin and how Rysn finds that odd. For that to be followed by Vstim establishing that its not strange and just different and that should be respected was just such a lovely moment to see. 
A little bit obsessed with Axies tbh bc frankly if there were little spirit creatures that appear with what seems to be a wide range of idk what to call them like states of being or occurrences idk stuff and things basically I would be studying that shit too. 
And then, the bane of my existence, the bastard that haunts my nightmares: Szeth :|. Idk WHY his name passionately enrages the very core of my being but it does. Not to mention that I am actually invested in his story bc wtf is this now with some random geezer materialising from the shadows with the head of his former master? OF COURSE I would eat that shit up man. (I do applaud Brando tho for clothing him like a slut but acknowledging how impractical it is and making it an annoyance that was extremely iconic).

LEO LARSON
full name: leonard "leo" michael larson
pronouns & gender: he/him, cis man
birthday & birthplace: february 9, 1996 (28); ann arbor, mi
location: ocean crest apartments
time in aurora bay: four years
sexuality: bisexual
occupation: art teacher at aurora bay high school
@aurorabayaesthetic
about.
leo is a midwestern boy through and through. he was born and raised in ann arbor, michigan (go blue!) and really prides himself on that. he'll go to bat for the midwest any day.
he's the oldest of three, with two younger sisters who he'd literally die for. his extended family on his mom's side is incredibly tight; his mom and all of her siblings actually bought up a lot of the houses in the same little cul-de-sac, so leo grew up seeing his cousins more like his siblings. lots of game day barbecues that spilled out into the street, riding bikes around town, driving around because there was nothing else to do, the whole suburban experience really
his parents split up when he was nine and he has little to no contact with his dad, who moved across the country after the divorce. he loves his mom but she went through a long period of dating bad guys that hasn't really ended, so he definitely has daddy issues
he's loved art for as long as he can remember, and he was always gifted with it. it started with chalk drawings in the driveway and went from there. he went to a progressive, hippy dippy high school in ann arbor that allowed him to specialize and get together a portfolio for college
leo is. not smart lmao. but he is talented, which is what got him into a joint brown university/rhode island school of design program. doing the whole ivy league thing was really not leo's jam. he felt like he was too far from his family and had a hard time fitting in to the kind of upper class vibe at an ivy, but he was able to find his niche and really focus on his work because of it.
after college, a fellowship brought him out to san francisco. he loved sf, but the kind of snobbery that really repulsed him in college just came out in full force when he was trying to break into the art world. the fellowship was supposed to last two years, but he gave it up after one and packed up his whole life to move south to aurora bay
he's been in town for four years now, and during that time he worked on teaching certifications, sort of because he didn't know exactly what else to do. all he wants to do all day is paint, but he developed such an imposter syndrome on top of a distaste for the established art world, so he figured that teaching art would allow him to do what he loves everyday while also giving him a lot of time to work on his own projects
he got a job at aurora bay high school and lives to project the kind of cool, gay, tattooed hippie teacher vibe that his teachers in high school had. he still does his own stuff and shows at local galleries/maintains a website where he sells pieces. he also does murals all over town, in storefronts, on the sides of businesses, for anyone who wants one at affordable prices. he sells handmade jewelry at local artisan markets. he just loves to make art!
leo is a very simple guy. the only things that really get through into his brain are pretty things. flowers, trinkets, etc. his apartment is immaculately designed, he's always looking out for a cute new piece for his mantel.
tidbits.
he has a dilute tortoiseshell cat named robert, after robert rauschenberg, who he mostly just calls bob
he actually speaks fluent irish but hardly ever has a chance to use it. his mom is a first generation american and her parents were basically irish nationalists who only came to the states because they were so poor in ireland. they were all about keeping the irish language alive, so his whole family spoke irish growing up
he's a bit of a slut! he is ACTIVE on grindr and tinder and all the things. if your character is too, they've probably hooked up
basically, he's just a sunshiny pretty boy
connections
party buds, hopeless wingman case for @heyits-asher
intrigued by, highkey crushin on @paxton-brady
art friends w/ @cherryxkoch, @maura-cortes, @cassidyxcooke
internet turned irl art friends w/ @lennonhansley
past fwb/on weird terms with @dancingdanvers
neighbors who leo drags into impromptu board game/wine/craft nights @emersonxcassidy, @cricketcampbell
went on a few dates with @atticus-cortes before they both accidentally ghosted each other
ex hookup/helped @esmaxdemirci cheat on her husband in sf

okay! I think I finally... have my muses sort of pieced together. (and they are all connected?? gasp!) if anything sounds intriguing, let me know!
daeun lee, 28. her real name is minji hwang, but she changed it and moved once her brother was killed. she swears his death was staged to look like an overdose because he had come across something he shouldn't have, and while she's frightened those same people could come after her, she also wants to know the truth.
met mai through a group counseling session for grief; they've gotten close over the year(s)
unbeknownst to her, she has befriended her brother's killer, joonho — though, they aren't super close
benz tungtawee, 27. paramedic that came across a scene he shouldn't have, and when his life was threatened on the spot, he said he could help. his family is under threat if he fails to cooperate. so, when he's not working a legitimate job, he's sucked into illegal work.
his older sister is mai, and he's an uncle
ends up getting really close with mix — either dating or exes, depending on the verse
mai nittaya, 31. personal trainer (or something of the sorts) and someone within the gang goes to her on a regular basis to make sure benz stays in line. she's unaware of the danger that surrounds them. also has a child (praew, 3 year old girl) and was going to get married, but he was killed in an accident.
her little brother is benz
met daeun through a group counseling session for grief; they've gotten close over the year(s)
mix surat, 30. security/sort of like a hitman; he handles the killings but he's not the one that makes the orders, he just follows them. also bartends on the side.
ends up getting really close with benz — either dating or exes, depending on the verse
occasionally ends up being the one following joonho around to protect him, but they've ended up becoming friends
joonho park, 28. goes by jordan. hacker that caught daeun's brother and ultimately the reason how/why he was killed. keeps the gang safe behind the scenes. son of the leader, so he typically has a body guard of the sort that follows him and stays close to ensure his safety.
befriended daeun, unbeknownst to her, just to keep an eye on her and her actions — he doesn't want her to get killed
friends with mix due to work; the other has played the role of body guard for him
then, of course, there's overlap. because benz knows mix, he also knows joonho, who knows daeun, who knows mai, etc. they may not be super familiar, but most of them know of each others' existence.

Name: Eliana Almeida
Faceclaim: Camila Queiroz
Gender & Pronouns: Cisfemale & She/Her
Age: 33
Birthday: May 19, 1990
Occupation: Event Planner
Neighborhood: Downtown
pinterest. playlist. visage. musings. wanted connections.
ALRIGHTY here we gooooo!
TW mention of neglect & addiction TW infidelity
Things for Eliana (Ellie) have never really been easy. It's always been one difficult thing after another, some at the hands of others and some of her very own doing.
Ellie grew up in California, from right outside of San Diego. Her parents are both originally from Covington, but Ellie has never been here until now due to her parents leaving home right after she was born.
The two of them were very young when Ellie was born and wanted to 'live their own lives' without their families trying to 'control them'.
Of course, they were young, dumb, and in love and way in over their heads. Her parents had always run with the wrong crowd and were all sorts of wrapped up in drinking/drug use from a young age. This only worsened once they moved all the way across the country.
Her parents were never really present. They could never really hold down a job and, honestly, they never really tried to.
When Ellie was 3 her younger brother was born and when she was 5 her younger sister was born.
She quickly took on a caregiver role, making sure that those siblings had the things that they needed. Even when she was in need of a caregiver herself. She was often the one clothing them, feeding them, making sure that they made their way to school. She would make sure forms were signed and that everything was taken care of.
It wasn't easy on her, not at all, and there were many days that she wanted to run away. But she knew that she couldn't leave those two kids alone.
Ellie had her first job when she was 15 as a hostess at a restaurant and paid what bills needed to be covered that her parents didn't seem to care about, as well as saved every dime that she could.
When she turned 18 she began serving tables and moved out of her parents home and into her own place. Her siblings often stayed with her and once they were older they all went no contact with their parents. They have not spoken since.
After Ellie moved out and was on her own, she did kind of go on a bit of a wild streak. With what felt like less responsibility and less overwhelming need to be in charge of everything, she felt free. She began to go out more, drink more, party more, etc. She made some not so great choices, but in her eyes she was finally just living her life the way she wanted.
During this period of her life, she began working for a catering company as a cater waiter/bartender. She loved getting to work different events and it really inspired her to want to further get into that line of work. She worked her way up to being a full fledged event planner and learned the ins & outs of the company/how the business side of things work. Around 28 she opened her own event planning company and now that's what she does full time.
She was married to Ryan Parrish, the two of them are no longer together due to her infidelity while he was deployed. The two of them felll very fast and very hard. She had never let anyone get close and with him it just came naturally. He's the only man she's ever trusted/loved. Although, despite all that, the two of them were not the healthiest of relationships. Due to them moving so quickly, they never realized how difficult two damaged people trying to be together might be and how many issues this might bring them. They argued/disagreed a lot. But at the end of the day, they always ended up back in each other's arms.
When he was gone though, it was sort of like she reverted back to what she was like before their marriage. She felt like she was on her own again, it was as if he/their relationship did not exist. It was definitely selfish, but it was not done in a malicious way (in her eyes).
Despite their toxic ways in their relationship, her cheating did sort of make her realize that she was being reckless with herself and with others. Her own infidelity was a major learning lesson and now she knows she would never do that again. But she, also, would likely never allow herself to get that deep into a relationship again. The thought of a serious relationship definitely scares her shitless.
The two of them still have some unfinished business, think like 'Sweet Home Alabama' unsigned papers vibes/finalizing divorce details, which is one of the reasons she is in town. Another is that she does still have family here that she wants to know - she wants to finally build some roots. She never got to know any of her extended family due to her parents leaving home so early, so she is using this as a chance to do that and see Ryan again.
I know with her being new to town the connections may be limited, but I am open to whatever! People who know her from home, people she may be related to, people who may know of her from Ryan, neighbors (she lives in an apartment downtown), etc. Just kind of some basics!

☆ –– (cierra ramirez, she/her, cis woman) who is CARTER CRUZ anyways? ew. you don’t know about HER, we’ll bet you want to. they’re feeling 28 and STRUMMING HER GUITAR feels like a perfect night to them. rumor has it they’re IMPULSIVE and OPPORTUNISTIC because they care, but they’re also AMBITIOUS and OPTIMISTIC in the best way. SHE works to make a little money as an ACTRESS. they’ve rented a place on cornelia street in the form of WOODVALE. MIDNIGHT RAIN (a) is the song they could dance to the beat of forevermore.
name: carter eliana cruz birthday: july 27, 1995 orientation: bisexual
carter grew up in a single parent household. her father left when she was seven years old and she hasn't heard from him since. despite asking her mom a thousand times why he left, she would never say. although she was so young when this happened, this event started the course of her whole personality. she became more optimistic, more competitive, she strived to be the best, to prove to him, wherever he was, that she was worth it, but more than that, that she was thriving without him.
as a kid, she would watch movies and tv shows, completely mesmerized. she would point at the tv and say how she was going to grow up to be just like the girl on the tv. she would put on skits with her friends at home, in school she would try out for their plays. she begged her mom for acting classes, she joined a local theatre company. she knew in her soul that this is what she was meant to do.
in her mid teens, she started travelling to LA frequently, going to audition for anything and everything. after a couple of years of constant no's she was starting to lose hope until halfway through her senior year, she was offered a supporting role in a major motion picture. turning this role down to finish school was not an option so she packed up her things and moved to LA. her career skyrocketed from there, she hardly got a break for the next five years.
despite the success of carter's career, the comments killed her self-confidence. she was constantly being told she needed to lose weight, she'd be so pretty if only she lost a few pounds. she tried unhealthy fad diets and when those didn't work, she stopped eating all together. reducing her diet to water and a small amount of veggies per day. her goal weight is unhealthy but she knows how to hide it.
many of her films shot scenes in New York and every time she visited, she fell more and more in love until she decided to rent an apartment and move to the city full-time.
CONNECTIONS
pr relationship - carter has not been in a real relationship in quite a while. her manager is worried that the public will lose interest if she's not in the media more so they set her up on a few dates with someone she's worked with recently. this can be a costar or anyone behind the scenes, pa, producer, makeup artist, etc
costar in the first movie she was in at 17 - she relied on this person a lot throughout filming and theyre still very close. maybe this person was kind of like a mentor to her or maybe they were both new to the industry and learned the ropes together
childhood best friend - they grew up together and this person felt like a connection to home while she was away
best friend - these two are each other's ride or die, they would do anything for each other. the type who aren't afraid to be honest and hurt the other's feelings, is prepared to hide a body for the other.
exes - she dated this person early on in her career, maybe things just fizzled, maybe there was drama
situationship - they talk, they hookup but the feelings aren't really there on carter's end. this could be an unrequited type thing or it could just be like fwb.
like this or hmu if you want to plot!!

omg + ditto mv theory
so we know that the 5 girls are struggling with a delusion:
hanni believes that she is Siri, which is clearly stated at the beginning of the mv: 'i exist for you. when you call i'll run to you, anywhere, anytime.' we see her running around through an iphone and in and out of different apps (clock, phone, music, etc.)
minji believes that she isn't a patient, and is actually a doctor trying to help the other girls: we see her find hanni talking to a brick wall and bringing her away. we also see her at the end with a person who we can presume to be another patient typing up a hate comment about nwjns 'am i the only one uncomfortable with this music video's material? just show their faces and dance.' and minji cuts in with 'all right, times up. / let's go.' we then see her approach a girl crouching down, who turns to reveal that she's also minji
hyein is shown to believe that she is a princess from a fairy tale: we see her with her prince charming (danielle) and when her apple watch strikes 12, she escapes on a subway (carriage). she's also shown as snow white and gets offered a poison apple, and then wakes up to a bear. in ban hee soo's video on december 28, the description reads 'these days, hyeins princess disease is so severe. she keeps asking where to buy the glass slippers, which really upsets me.'
haerin believes that she is a cat: there isn't much with this in the music video but the other four girls stare at a cat which we can assume is haerin and she's seen eating what looks like a cat treat
danielle believes that all 5 of them are a girl group called new jeans: during the music video she breaks the 4th wall by saying 'girls, what are you talking about? we're shooting a music video right now.' and points to the camera crew before going up to them and asking 'aren't we?' then she says 'guys, you really don't remember? come on, we're new jeans!' after which various clips of the girls performing and in music video's flash before moving on to the attention mv, during which minji cuts in with 'all right, stop.'
ban hee soo is the girl who is filming the other with her camera in the ditto mv, and her face is never shown. in the ditto mv, she represents new jeans' fans, with her name sounding like 'bunnies' the fandom name. the ditto mv shows the relationship between fans and idols, and how you can be so invested in them that you almost feel like they're your friends and you can go through a lot of ups and downs together, but you'll never really know them. but i think the ditto mv also links up with the omg mv.
ban hee soo is also a patient in the ward, but she doesn't actually know them. her delusion is that she is friends with the 5 of them and they all go to school together. side a of ditto shows hee soo's delusion fully, with it just being her recording clips of the girls dancing or messing around, while side b shows bits of reality with the clips actually just being empty halls or her other classmates giving her looks as they can't see the girls because it's all in hee soo's delusion.

23, 31, 60 for one of our ships and 28, 30, 51 for another!! 💖💖
ZOFIA & GRAYSON
23. Who's more likely to convince the other to stay in bed come morning? | I feel like it's definitely Grayson, Zofi is not a huge morning person but she's still the most responsible out of the two, and she likes taking her time during the morning so that her day starts nicely. He probably convinces her to stay in bed most mornings, but only for a few more minutes, which, of course, she uses to convince him to get up with her.
31. Can they sit side by side without touching the other or are they handsy? (lacing fingers, touching knees, etc.) | Zofia can, for sure. Grayson? Not so much. The thing is, they're both quite touchy, even in public, but Gray is way more than she is, so he's always looking for a way to be touching her, be that a hand on her back, an arm around her shoulder, a hand on her knee, etc. This is all fine with her, of course, but if she was the one initiating the contact it'd probably be just holding hands and a peck in the cheek every now and again.
60. Who pulls the other closer when they’re sleeping? | Again, definitely Gray. He's a cuddler, and very clingy when it comes to her. I feel like she moves around a lot during the night and ends up on the other side of the bed, so he has to pull her closer every once in a while when he realises they're not cuddling anymore lmao.
EMILEE & MILO
28. What are their thoughts on pet names? Do they have any? | I feel like Milo wasn't into pet names at all... Until he started dating Emilee. Like, they're so extra and clingy and mushy together that sometimes he catches himself being all lovey-dovey and gets embarrassed for like, a second at most, but let's be honest, he loves it. So they definitely use all kinds of silly pet names but while that's just Em's way of being, Milo does it mostly to make fun of her, in a cute way, not a mean one. I imagine he's always trying to outdo her :^)
30. Your OTP gets to pick out each other's outfits; what is each wearing? | This is funny because this post you rbed once immediately came to mind. So yeah, he's definitely putting her in a cosplay of one of his fave characters. Now, I think Em would kind of just put him in a cute outfit that would match how she normally dresses, there's probably a lot of pink and glitter and maybe even cow print going on. Hilarious.
51. What’s a non verbal way they say I love you? | One of the things I personally really like about their relationship is how they end up getting into a lot of stuff the other's into, like Milo getting her into anime and video games, and I also love that their music tastes are so similar (even tho we didn't even plan that!). So I think spending time doing things the other enjoys is one of their favourite ways to say 'I love you' without actually saying it :3
obligatory otp asks!

@viciouslyfilthy asked: Genuine question (sending this here via ask bc I have a lot to reply in DMs and I know that it can feel exciting to receive an ask on tumblr, at least from my pov :} ) but would you be interested in like- roleplaying a scenario where a muse tries to show Hal/Titan that just because he's 'nice' or a superhero doesn't entitle him to someone's affection/romance? I don't think he's TOTALLY morally irredeemable like say- Frollo (for example), plus he's pretty young- (22 something years old if I recall?) Again, to set an example- unlike Frollo who is way into his elderly years and has had a closed mindset engraved in his brain for decades. I think it would be interesting to have a muse try to get him out of his 'incel' mindset and watch the character development/realization get to him!! :0
I'm not trying to excuse his actions in any way of course, his behaviour and entitlement to one woman's affection remains inexcusable and immature! I just like to imagine he could be capable of changing and being a better person and- if we're talking him post-transformation, perhaps he could even become a decent superhero for the town like Metroman was. What do you think of this idea? /gen I'd love to hear your opinion!! <3
Hal might not be as emotionally complex as a villain like Frollo but his characterization is still VERY accurate to how a lot of people grow up to be like in modern days, especially online where they can hide their face. I always find these ficto representations to irl behaviors very interesting (other examples that catch my interest being: Ming Lee from Turning Red; The Riddler from the most recent Batman movie; Goldilocks from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish...)
Tumblr media
[ Random Ask ] | Always Accepting
(( Of course, it's always nice to receive asks about my muses, especially ones regarding their character, etc.! As for the scenario, I find the premise interesting and would like/wouldn't mind RPing that! He's 28, though (cause that's what they said in movie), so I'm not sure how easy mindsets would change at his age, especially for a seemingly stubborn and immature-esque character like him. It wouldn't be like Frollo's case where he's been close-minded for so long, but I feel that it would take a lot of time and effort on his part to change... and if he wants to :0 (also I agree with you, his actions to Roxanne & behavior in general is inexcusable; i just feel like you do that you can have a 'what-if' to characters and write/see them more than canon can provide...)
Fun fact: I actually have a verse (sort of) that when Hal gets his super powers and becomes Titan/Tighten, he tries to woo over Roxanne (like in the movie) but finds that it didn't work so he just kind of... moves on/tries to better himself after seeing "Benard" and Roxanne together and ends up being a good guy/hero! (It's still a work in progress and I'm trying to figure out how it'd align w/his character but still!) Basic premise is that he turns good/is a superhero rather than turning into a supervillain...
I also enjoy seeing real-life scenarios in characters and seeing them be really well-written... It really does make you think of them as real people (or relating anyway) and you give some wonderful examples!

Hot For Teacher
A Remi x Levi Non-Canon Fic Series
Pt. 1 of many
⚠️Content Warning⚠️
Foul language & Suggestive tension
Tumblr media
Author’s Notes: Alright Snow Puppies! I’m back with another series for Remi x Levi! This one I’m hoping to be a little bit longer than the last. I was more or less testing the waters with “New Guy” but I think I have a really fun idea you’ll love! Strap in! As always Remi is owned by the awesome @aller-geez !
Description: Levi is a newly divorced English Professor, at his local community college. Recently, he’s had a new student that clearly lacks boundaries. Can he maintain his purity as a responsible educator to society? Or will he submit to the taboo…
“Alright, Students! It’s the first day of class, and let me tell you all, I’m excited to have you!” The man was cheerful, full of light as he stood not but 5 foot 7, in his beige tight fit trousers and light blue long sleeves. It matched well with the brown lapel he wore over, he grabbed a dry erase marker and began to scribble his name across the board. “Professor Levi, I am your English instructor for the next 4 semesters! I hope to establish a close rapport with you all! In fact let’s do some ice breakers,” he clapped his hands together before he pointed at one end of the room. “Start here and end,” pointing towards the opposite section side now. “Here!” Levi was so excited to be back in the classroom. After his insane divorce due to it being a poorly arranged marriage, he had a hard time during the break months. Without his students to distract him from how very real being alone was, he was nothing.
The students introduced themselves one by one, mentioning a hobby, favorite color, etc. the usual thing Levi tried keeping his rather short attention span to. In truth, these weren’t the things he would remember about his students. It was how they wrote, how they used their voice with passion that resonated with people like Levi. It was several voices in before he heard one, deep, almost hypnotizing voice start speaking.
“Hey…I’m Remington, you guys can call me Remi…I guess…I like cars,” Levi’s bright diamond eyes met those of shining emeralds, and the second they locked, the wolf sneers. “And I think I’m really going to enjoy this class,” voice sultry, a few of the female students sighing in admiration and adoration. Professor Levi cleared his throat, praying the freshly dusted freckled cheeks went unnoticed by most as he quickly nodded and pointed to the next student. “We-Welcome Remi, nice to meet you…moving on…” he felt a flush of warmth. What was this? Was he flustered? He’d had many handsome and gorgeous students before, but no one ever caught his eye quite like this. This man was unbelievably hot, long black unkempt hair, these green eyes that closely resembled gems, his angular jaw was sharp but strong…masculine but still so delicate.
The class finished introducing themselves, and as they all sat, the raven haired man’s eyes never left that of the blue eyed professor’s frame. Studying his every twist, and turn. For Remington, he’d never understood having the hots for someone in such a setting like this, but feasting his eyes on such…a cute, petite professor, those shimmering eyes of wonder…he could tell this was going to be his favorite class indeed. He had to get his hands on him, he had to have him. It was destiny, and he knew it was because he’d never felt this immediate attraction to anyone in his entire 28 years of life. There was nothing that would stop him…but how would he play the game? The wolf wondered to himself.
Levi sprung right back into action as he started to jot down the lesson plans, the structure of the class, expectations and rules. It was going increasingly well, when the emerald eyed mischief, raised his hand silently. Seemingly surprised Levi pointed towards the hand. “Yes? Remi..was it?” Nodding, the tall student stood up and spoke out loud, with the confidence of 10,000 men.
“Yeah, I was wondering, how much extra credit do I need to take you out?” Biting his lower lip. The teacher’s face lit up in bright crimson, suddenly taken aback by the student’s sheer audacity.
“Mr. Connors, that is a highly inappropriate question to ask, and we can discuss boundaries after class,” the man abruptly slammed his pointing sticking onto the desk in front of him with furious intent. After class? Alone? That didn’t sound too bad to him. He smoothly, and swiftly sat back down in silence. Everyone trying their best not to stare, but definitely shared their fair part in whispers. Remi smirked to himself, unaware, and frankly uncaring of anyone else’s reaction around him. He would wait until after class then. So forward, and in front of everyone? Naughty professor. The wolf thought to himself completely lost in his desires for the other.
Levi on the other hand, was internally fuming. Who does this little shit think he is? Being so openly forward like that in a class of students? While he’s working!? The disrespect was immeasurable and he was sure to think of a fair punishment for him. That’s for sure. The lesson droned on and on, the raven haired student doodled little comics on the side of his notes. Mostly just mini wolves shooting themselves in the head, but a couple other random squiggles here and there too.
“Mr. Connors, can you tell me the concept behind ‘To Kill a Mockingbird?’ Real easy book, it was part of the summer reading when you signed up for the class…” narrowing his eyes at the other, sly smile spread across his own face knowing full well he hadn’t been paying attention. Remi scratched the back of his head as he looked down at his less than helpful notes.
“Uh…hunting…?” He guessed at the top of his head, no one said anything. No one even chuckled because Remi’s aura was more than threatening enough to gain respect amongst his peers. They just all looked back at their Professor, to anticipate his next move.
“The concept of the book ‘To Kill a Mocking Bird’, Mr. Connors, is Innocence. The mockingbird represents, innocence..” he nodded his head matter-of-factly turning sharp on his heels to make a point to the student that he would, make an example of him at any given moment he chose. The wolf raised an eyebrow at the other’s back now turned to him. ‘Oh? Are we playing a game now?’ He wondered excitedly as the lesson continued. An hour passed and there was a large chime that echoed the entire classroom, signaling the end of period. Everyone scattered to push their things into their bags, scrambling to their feet to catch their next lessons. Remi however, slowly put his things away, taking his sweet time as the room emptied one by one. Eventually, it was just him and professor Levi left alone to their own devices. Finally having gathered his things, he walked down to the desk where the white haired man sat. “You wanted to see me?” His voice smug as he easily over towered the other that looked up at him.
“Yes…what the hell are you doing?” Raising a thin brow and setting his chin on the top of his folded hands, using his elbows for support.
“A…ttending college?” Remi even questioned himself now, was that not the answer to the question? Abruptly, Levi pushed himself back from his desk and stood up, shaking a judgmental finger at the handsome student.
“No, you know what I’m talking about! Don’t go making suggestive or flirtatious remarks at me during class! Highly inappropriate…” blushing brightly feeling the emotions overwhelm him. It’s not like he didn’t enjoy the other’s flirtations, but it was extremely forbidden, he wouldn’t lose his job for some idiot that would probably drop out in two weeks anyway.
“So, you’re saying outside of class is fine then?” Waggling his eyebrows in a cheeky fashion, truly hoping to garner at least a smile. The ocean eyed man sighed with sincere annoyance, truthfully hiding the feeling of giddiness in his gut, before shaking his head back and forth. Without saying a word. “I’m sorry, Professor…just..never had a hot teacher before, we’re both adults we can speak honestly here,” he shrugged stepping dangerously closer to the shorter male in front of him. Levi followed his motions but by backing up, finding himself wedged between the other and the whiteboard now.
“W-Well you need to get it together…besides..even if you weren’t my student..you expect a scholar like me to be interested in someone who can’t even do the required reading?” He scoffed rolling crystal blues back before returning their heated eye contact, squinting with judgement. “Be for real,” that one stung. Remi stepped back and he contemplated what the other just said, emerald orbs studying the smaller’s body language, before grabbing his backpack tighter to his body, his shoulders raised and dropped with challenging confidence.
“Alright, fine…we’ll see then,” looking his Professor up and down one last time, taking a long pause before turning on his heels and heading out of the classroom as if nothing had just happened at all.
‘What the hell was that ?’ Levi thought to himself as he slowly sat back down at his desk. ‘We’ll see? The fuck was that supposed to mean?’ He shook his head back and forth. No. He wouldn’t let some long haired, chiseled body pretty boy distract him from his successes. He gathered his things and began to pack up for the day. Everything would be fine, he didn’t have to worry because Remi wasn’t going to be a problem. No. It would fizzle out as most people obsessed with their teacher first day do. Putting today’s discomfort behind him, Levi set his sights on going back home.
Two Weeks Later
It had been quiet in the classroom, much to the Professor’s surprise. Remi had maintained a quiet demeanor, taking notes, paying attention. The few times he’d been called upon he actually had intelligent answers, seeming his one moment of embarrassment set him straight. The white haired male feeling certainly satisfied at his methods proving fruitful. “Alright everyone, I’m handing out a pop quiz,” the class groaned, some panicked, the wolf leaning against the palm of his hand without a trace of emotion. Just forever looking at the leopard in a studious and obsessive manner.Levi waved his hands about and hushed the crowd of anxious students. “Don’t worry, don’t worry it’s not going to directly affect your grades, I just want to see how well you’re all retaining the information so far…think of it as an educational check in,” this bit of information seemed to settle most of the more flustered students.
He started passing around the small sheets of 8 test questions. It was multiple choice, wouldn’t take them all longer than maybe fifteen minutes. After distributing their tests, Levi sat back at his desk, waiting patiently as he observed the students at work. His eyes lingering on the raven haired delinquent…he held his hopes out for this one. Shortly after receiving the test, Remi breezed through each question, having paid close attention he was confident in his answers. Sliding himself out from the desk, he stood up and carried himself across the room to slide the test onto his Professor’s desk, tossing him a cheeky wink with a matching devious smirk. The leopard blushed, avoiding eye contact as Remi returned to his seat. He cleared his throat before going over each of the answers, and much to his surprise, the wolf had passed with flying colors. Every answer correct. ‘Impressive…’ he thought to himself before setting it in the ��graded’ basket.
At first, it took the student far too long to get out of bed the morning of this dreadful class, just to trudge himself into this bland and boring room. However, since he laid his eyes on the adorably fit professor, it’s suddenly become the highlight of his every Tues and Thursday. If being an active student was important to his new object of desire, an active student he would be. Studying in his free time, analyzing and observing every concept and topic addressed by the bubbly educator. He knew a basic 8 question test wasn’t a whole lot to gauge his recent efforts on, but it would be a significant difference, it would surely make an impression.
One by one, each student turned in their tests, Levi grading them immediately and setting them aside. He waited patiently until the very last student turned in their assignment and once done, Levi stood up with his handful of papers. “Thanks you guys! I really appreciate you taking these tests to the best of your abilities, it seems most of you are retaining the lessons, and are right on track!” He flashed a glance over at the emerald eyed student, who’s side smirk stayed presently on his face. The white haired man reddened almost unnoticeably to everyone else, but not to man he wish to hide it from. He continued to nervously give the rest of his lesson feeling those green eyes burning into the back of him as he did. The hour seemed to creep by, introducing the most basic of reading assignments, Romeo and Juliet, before the bell finally rang, and Levi felt like he would be able to breathe soon. The pressure of the man’s gaze was far too much to handle.
Remi sat, waiting patiently for everyone to clear out before he stood up at his seat, walking down now to the door after the last student wandered out, he locked it shut. Upon hearing the *tink* of his classroom door locking, Levi looked over, eyebrows furrowed before questioning the wolf.
“Hey, why are you locking my door?” The man could only chuckle in response, stepping over to the desk in a few long strides, as the white and black haired man stood up from his desk now. “No seriously, what the hell is with yo-…” suddenly he was pushed up against the white board with Remi’s strong arm slammed down to the side of his head, pinning him there, the student bore down onto his much smaller professor.
“Have I impressed you? As you can see, I’m not a COMPLETE, idiot…” his breath hot against the other’s face, his heart racing a million miles a second as his ocean blues sparkled innocently up at the intimidating one. It was true, within the educator he knew there had been a shift within the student’s behaviors. It would be an out right lie to say it had gone unnoticed and unappreciated. Remi brought his free hand over to the man’s face, dragging his thin index down the front of his sweater vest. “What’s a guy gotta do, hm?”
“I-…I…” completely at a loss for words as he looked his student up and down before shaking his head clear of any impure thoughts. “This..is a College, a place of learning..your actions…” trying to rationalize the best he could to not lead himself head first into temptation.
“Are hIgHlY iNaPpRoPRiAtE…yeah and? I have a feeling you like a bit of…inappropriate…behavior,” his finger stopped at the man’s belt, bringing attention to the slight bulge print that was building within Levi’s slacks at the forceful treatment. Gripping it just barely with the tip of said finger, he tugged, before it released with a snap. Levi’s breath caught in his throat, he’d never felt more vulnerable..he’d also never been in this position. Completely fawned and pinned over by an extremely attractive man? Usually it was women throwing themselves at him. It was refreshing to catch the sex he was attracted to…but at work?! His student?! The universe was truly a sick place.
Levi took both his palms now and shoved the taller off him, doing his best to fight off impulsivity, though he wasn’t as strong, Remi allowed the other his space. He could take a hint. Kind of. He chuckled, however, shoveling his hands deep within jean pockets before adjusting the bag on his shoulders. “You’re out of line, Connors,” the leopard knitted his eyesbrows together as he scolded the student, who just continued to undress the professor with his glowing emerald orbs.
“Maybe…but you like it, and so long as you do…I won’t stop,” biting his pierced lower lip, he turned now with a lingering glance behind his shoulder, he flashed another smirk, before turning back and starting his way back towards the door of the classroom. “Have a good rest of your evening, Professor…Guess I’ll just have to try harder..see you Thursday…” unclinking the lock, swinging open the door and disappearing from the room all together. Levi stood there with disbelief. This can’t be happening right? No..he thought this was all over…but, it was clearly only getting started.
To be continued…
I know, I know…it’s pretty vanilla from what we are used to. Trust the slow burn, puppies, trust the slow burn. I promise it’ll be worth it, I have lots of plans for angst, fluff, smut. Any suggestions, would be awesome as well! Thanks for all that take the time to read my fics, I truly appreciate each and every one of you <3
