ten things i hate about you ☆ bonus ☆ - b.b.
summary: you have met this man once in your life, at a bar after you passed out. and the second time you meet him it definitely is less pleasant. thankfully you never ever have to see him again. except now you are forced on a plane with him to the mediterranean because the tickets are non-refundable. fuck this.
pairing: bucky barnes x reader, natasha romanoff x reader
warnings: cursing, maybe?
a/n: GUYS😭😭 i'm literally leaving all y'all DRY. i am deeply sorry i just have like NO inspiration. (cuz like i get inspo from my life but i have no fucking action rn guys💀) ANYWAYS i hope u like it cuz its all ur getting until like a week or 2 from now🤭🫶
also i meant to post this after i finished the series but i wanted to give y'all smth
Tumblr media
top five insults by barnes and y/l/n
number one
you could hear the buzz of the hair clipper coming from the bungalow bathroom. the sound stopped abruptly, and bucky walked out. you looked up from your book to see bucky putting his fancy clippers away into his suitcase.
“i just love what you did to your hair,” you exclaimed, “how did you get it to come out of your nose like that?” you mocked innocence, trying to hold back laughter.
“very funny, y/n…” he said, mocking you, while walking back into the bathroom to inspect his nose.
number two
you adjusted the cotton sundress you had on in front of the mirror, trying to get it to fit properly. the part holding your boobs up didn’t sit properly and the straps were too big.
“at this point you should just take the mirror with you,” bucky remarked.
“honestly, i think you’re just jealous that you look like a ‘before’ picture and i look like an ‘after picture’,” you spun around to face him, arms crossed agaisnt your torso.
you turned back around and found a way to make the dress feel comfortable.
“okay, i got to agree that was a good one,” he laughed, his eyes drifting over your outfit.
number three
“oh my god, bucky look,” you signaled towards a book, “10 ways to help your everyday life this is perfect for your pathetic life,” you flashed him a wide grin.
he picked it up, inspected it, but you could tell he was trying to fight a smile.
“hmm,” he said, thoughtfully, “don’t worry about me, sweetheart, worry about that hideous wardrobe.”
“i know you love it, i saw the way you were eyeing my sundress the other day,” you hit his arm, snickering.
he nodded in response to your reply, a sneaky grin lingering.
number four
the two of you were emptying the dishwasher of the bungalow, you were drying the plates and bowls, and bucky was putting them away.
“this isn’t dry enough, y/n,” bucky insisted, flipping the mug over, while watching the extra water drip out of it, “you left some water in here.”
“do it yourself then,” you said, rolling your eyes at him.
“you’re just adorable, y/n!” bucky said, laughing to himself a bit, “you’re just like my cat, stupid and fiesty for no reason.” he began to cackle.
“aww! and you’re just like a clown, no hidden reason behind that,” you smiled up at him mischievously.
number five
you were spending your downtime standing by the kitchen counters, checking your phone. bucky was standing next to you, baking a small batch of muffins.
“literally every guy i get matched with on this stupid app is mediocre,” you said scrolling through a dating app, “i hate online dating.”
“oh honey, im so sorry for you,” bucky said, faking pity, “all those guys are just way too out of your league. you have miles and miles to go before you reach mediocre!” as he said that he crouched down to your height.
“shut the fuck up barnes,” you said pushing his face away from you.
he let out a loud cackle, pleased with your response.
----
hope u liked it cuz its all i got rn🙂🙂

actually i already rated the "canon" ships what am i doing. i know ill rate them again
naruhina: -10/10. concept is mediocre at best, popular guy x shy girl but that is literally not what is happening here. can we stop pretending its good
sasusaku: -10/10. please project onto someone else
narusaku: 2/10. they care about each other a lot so i guess its ok-er but still not very good romantically. but again if it were endgame it wouldve been not AS bad
inosai: 4/10. it makes so much sense but also zero sense and i never know how to feel about it. sai isnt a sasuke replacement tho. lavender marriage?
shikatema: 3/10. good in concept but again. see sokka and suki atla thats what this COULD HAVE been but it isnt. just bc theyve actually talked does not mean its good where are your expectations. 3 points for meeting before tho bc for some reason that is so hard in this series
chokarui: 3/10. the reason why the previous one also got 3. 3 points for this one bc i guess theres nothing objectively wrong with it but can we stop getting strong female characters move their entire lives to immigrate to the stupid leaf and rhen get dumbed down to angry housewife? please?
tamakiba: 1/10. i love kiba where did this come from tho. if we put tamaki in a crowd we would lose her. summary of all that is wrong in boruto The Pairings Were Not Planned If They Had To Make Up An Entire Ass Woman
itaizu: 0/10 bro. they were 7.
obirin: 3/10 i have.... mixed feelings. rin isnt enough of an actual character for this
kakarin: 1/10 see above
asukure: -1/10 i actually hate this one. fun fact asumas introduction is him being a misogynistic ass to kurenai, so i kinda never got over that w asumas character BUT THEN THEY WENT AND GOT TOGETHER???? for all i said ab other characters not really Having characters, kurenai really takes the cake. all this did was make her a wife and mom. cool. goodbye
yahikona: 8/10 winnnnn the background random couple of side characters is somehow better than all the main ones!!
hayugao: 5/10. idk if thats the ship name but yugao x hayate. at least they had development i guess but its just. theyre REALLY background
tsunadan: 10/10 love tsunadan live laugh love tsunadan. pairing that had the best development in the whole series and it was like. 3 pages long.
jiratsuna: 1/10 i just dont like jiraiya and tsunades already rejected him why does she have to accept him now. give it up old man
minakushi: 7/10 ive mentioned this before but while the pairing itself is nice, kushinas character gets done so bad w all her ambitions in this, and minato doesnt really have much of a character. better than the main ones but could be better.
hashimito: 4/10 see look i really think this couldve been good but then hashirama rambled about madara the whole time and didnt think to mention his WIFE! once so im kind of mad at him about that. hsmd juice sure ig but mito deserves better
hiruzen and his wife: 2/10. i feel like nobody should have to deal with hiruzen for such an extended amount of time but i remember finding her annoying too
koteizu: 100/10 obviously. of course they are canon. ostrich episode carried they carry love them

ive been sitting on this for like . months. i know this is like target audience: ME . but i dont care im subjecting the rest of you to it too.
should be noted that this is for an incredibly stupid au that im not going to bother explaining here . a total of like three people probably know what im talking but basically iykyk. will be happy to elaborate though if you ask. anyways fiona/scourge/finitevus/lien-da riichi mahjong nights headcanons
the whole stupid thing starts because fiona watches this dumb anime [knock-off of the legend of koizumi]. the premise is, amongst an... indescribable amount of stupidity, world politics basically runs on mahjong (riichi mahjong, specifically). lots of idiocy devolves from this. i think scourge would probably not enjoy it as much because 1) this requires some knowledge of current. ACTUALLY WAIT FUNNIEST POSSIBLE DIRECTION. legend of koizumi but with famous echidnaopolis/albion figures. okay so 1) this requires some knowledge of echidna history but scourge slept through all of the history lessons so he hasnt the faintest clue who any of these people are 2) following along with the game (while not necessary, you can still get enjoyment out of it without knowing anything abt mahjong through the stupidity of the people playing, but again the problem remains that he doesnt know who ANY of these people are) is borderline impossible and he's mostly just confused the whole time and 3) not enough violence. like yeah people die but thats after they sit and place tiles in orders he doesnt understand for reasons he also doesnt understand dramatically. fiona, though, who put in marginally more effort into her history lessons and is open to picking up new skills decides that she wants to learn how to play riichi mahjong.
so she introduces it to finitevus, who is. okay because on one hand he doesnt respect like almost anybody in this stupid show because they're all arrogant self-important morons, but on the other hand its also kind of offensive. like really offensive. like appallingly offensive. i... honestly i dont know how he would react. also its just really stupid like its so stupid. it has absolutely nothing meaningful or significant to say. its not like. the worst he's ever been forced to sit through (real housewives of mobotropolis was . a lot) but its still pretty bad. either way somehow fiona convinces him to pick mahjong up (after she forces him to sit through a few episodes) because its like um a strategy game and itll like totally . make them smarter, or something. its education right
somehow lien-da gets roped into this (blackmail, maybe?) and they play on the weekends
playing styles:
scourge: incredibly aggressive. "the best defense is a good offense. or even a mediocre offense. or any offense at all." is more or less his motto. cant be bothered to attempt with strategy, doesnt even look at anybody else's discards outside of seeing if he can pick them up to add to his own hand. should be noted that the only reason he doesnt cheat is because it requires too much paying attention to whats going on in the game. usually skirts by through winning before anybody else can. looks for the easiest & most convenient hand and will always try to win as opposed to cutting his losses (after an attempt to score big falls through). often deals into other people's hands. has a stupid amount of luck and has definitely gotten more yakuman than the rest of the group combined. usually ends up with an open hand, doesnt care at all. VERY easy to read, negative poker face.
fiona: tends to lean more on defensive but will sometimes go for a more aggressive style depending on how she's feeling. relatively new to mahjong strategy so mostly just trying to juggle betaori/suji/kabe and doing a mediocre job of it most of the time. on occasion if she gets frustrated or overconfident, she'll just drop the whole thing and only put a minimal focus on defense. doesn't deal into other people's hands too often but when she does its usually into finitevus'. she's picking up tricks from him though and is getting progressively harder to read. prefers a closed hand but if its convenient she's fine with an open one. has a good poker face.
finitevus: very defensive and exclusively aims for really good hands. perfectly fine with cutting his losses in the short run to focus on not dealing in. oftentimes will swoop in in the last few rounds with a crushing defeat for everybody else. really good at reading other people & their hands. can and will use suji to trip other people up. could not be more disgusted that 90% of scourge's wins come via pure luck as opposed to anything else. prefers to keep his hand closed if at all possible. perfect poker face, very hard to read. [+ designated score calculator. calculates it all in his head]
lien-da: generally tries to go for a more defensive/strategic style at first but usually gets overconfident and throws caution to the wind, getting progressively more aggressive (esp when she has a good hand). by the end she still keeps an eye on everybody else's discards for furiten, but not much more than that - other defensive strategies are too time consuming and require too much effort on her part. tries really hard to have a closed hand at the beginning of the game but usually gives up by the end. relatively easy to read, sporting a very mediocre to bad poker face.
win rankings go as follows: finitevus, fiona, scourge (PURELY through luck. keeps randomly getting yakuman to the chagrin of literally everybody else. they are all so mad about this because he doesnt deserve it not even a little bit), lien-da

10 Things Every Business Owners Should Know in 2022
Tumblr media
As a Digital marketing company owner, I realized many of the business owners thinks, It’s hard enough to keep up with running your business, let alone the best ways to market it. I’m writing this post to help business owners informed and on top of what’s important for your business’s growth and success. im not gonna say its gonna be easy, it requires you to do some work. let’s dive in.
1. Your UVP
Your unique value proposition is what sets you apart from your competitors. It’s the thing(s) you do to help your customers in ways that your competitors don’t (or can’t). Every successful business has a UVP, whether they’ve articulated it or not. If you don’t know your business’s unique value proposition, you need to; and then you need to incorporate it into your content and messaging.
2. Work on Local SEO
Search engines have radically improved their understanding of locality, and having your business correctly identified and optimized for local search is crucial for attracting the right customers. This means optimizing your website with your location in mind, getting your business listings in local directories set up, and tagging your location in your social media posts. If you don’t have a website get one today, you don’t know what are you losing. dominate google now.
3. The Importance of Google My Business
I noticed, most of the business owners not aware of this, The Google My Business platform is having an ever-growing impact on how local customers find businesses. Getting your Google My Business profile created and populated is a minimal time investment with a major return.
For more help with Google My Business, head to our GMB Knowledge Center with free help and how-to articles.
4. Who Your Competitors Are
It is not about focusing on business growth, a business owner should pay attention to their competitors too. It’s important to know your competitors so you can keep tabs on them, and identify gaps that you can fill in
6. What Your Metrics Are
It’s important to identify what success looks like for your business, which might be organic traffic, the conversion rate on your ads, email open rate, monthly revenue, or inventory growth. Whatever your important metrics are, knowing them gives you a baseline so that you can see how well you’re progressing and where you need to improve your performance. Related post: How to Know if Your Marketing is Working
7. Collect Your Reviews
Word of mouth has and always will be the most highly-prized method of getting your business in front of more customers. In addition to the traditional person-to-person form, online reviews are now a major component of the word about your business. Being proactive with collecting positive reviews for your business is one key to building your credibility with potential customers.
8. Email Still Works
Good old fashioned email marketing still works. It’s still effective, it’s still cheap, it’s still the way for you to convey huge amounts of information to your leads and prospects without taxing your resources or annoying your targets. I still recieving questions like does email marketing still works? yes, it still works
9. Your Niche
Your business has a niche. It is better to be great at one thing than it is to be mediocre at many things. Everyone can get mediocre just about anyplace they turn. Mediocre isn’t competitive. It’s great that’s hard to find. Find your niche and be great in it. Get a consultant if you can’t find one for yours.
10. The Power of Simple Content
Content is crucial for marketing, but you don’t have to be the world’s greatest writer to be successful. let me be honest I’m not good at writing, I leverage my writing with some of the Google tools like Grammarly. Marketing is about connection, it’s about you are telling a story to your audience. Write and create as if you are just talking with your audience in a regular personal conversation. Employ their language, convey simple and digestible information, and express your brand and thoights message in relatable ways.

Can we have one with mason where y/n and mason hate eachother but have to sleep in the same bed together and one thing leads to another if u know what I mean😳 and mason ends up confessing his feelings 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Druken Mistakes| Mason Mount smut
Tumblr media
Gif by @mountsmason
blurb: After being forced to share a room with mason, you both end up making one huge druken mistake.
notes: I haven't proof read this so don't judge guys. Lemme know if you want a part 2 xx
warnings: smut ;)
“Listen I’m really sorry guys, but it’s one night. We can get you separate rooms tomorrow, I promise” says Ben, pinching the top of his nose bridge.
“I’ll sleep on the reception sofa" you say before Bens huff interrupts you.
“Y/n? Come on, seriously stop acting like a child. It’s one night, it’s my wedding tomorrow so don’t ruin it for me by kicking up a fuss. please?"
“Okay, fine” you roll your eyes and look up to mason standing next to you, he was unusually quiet.
“Mase? Im really sorry mate, its just one night” says Ben with pleading eyes.
“Yeah, yeah, don’t worry mate. Your getting married in the morning you have enough to worry about”.
Conveniently the hotel had double booked the rooms of the maid of honour and best man, that just so happened to be you and mason.
It was around 10pm at night, you were cold and standing in a huge, fancy reception hall, your grip tight on the handle of the small suitcase beside you. Being told you would have to spend the night with mason is the last thing you needed to happen tonight.
Ben scurried off to go find his mum before he goes to bed, all the stress of marrying the love of his life tomorrow I suppose. Mason was stood at the desk getting the key to our room.
It was a long and quiet elevator ride, until you spoke up.
“You better not try anything mount-“
“I wasn’t planning too”
“Good. Because if you think I’m going to end up having some cliché mediocre sex with you just because we are maid of honour and best man then you are completely wrong.” You huff, once again gripping your suitcase handle.
“My abilities in the bedroom are far from mediocre, daring”
You felt your cheaks heat up at the comment, as mason smugly walks out of the elevator with a smirk on his face. I hate him.
He swiped the card on the door to a gorgeous manner hotel room. However, you could only see one towel, and one robe and, and... there was only one bed.
Of corse there’s only one bed. What was I expecting, bunkbeds? This can't get any worse. I need a drink.
“I can sleep on the floor” mason says, snapping you out if your gaze.
“Don’t be ridiculous. We can just stuff a pillow in the middle of the bed”
Mason just awkwardly laughs and sits on the bed, his back up again the headboard as he sits on his phone.
You sit at the desk and pull out the hotel phone.
“What are you doing? Who you calling?” Calls out mason.
“Room service, going to need a drink to get me through tonight. What do you drink?” You ask him, the phone against you ear as it rings.
“I don’t mind” he mumbles.
“White? Red? Should we get champagne?”
Mason found you extremely intriguing, you were confident and he was well, he was mason. “get some white, and ask if they're still doing food.”
“Hiya, can I get 2 bottles of any white wine to room 67 please? Thank you, and are you still doing food?”
And before you knew it you and mason was both say cross legged on the bed, a bowl of cheesy chips in the middle of you both and random tiny alcohol bottles from where you had drained the mini fridge, mason demanding that you had to do shots. You were on your third glass or maybe forth? Asking each other the randomist of questions.
“Okay, okay, I’ve got one, what’s the most embarrassing thing your parents have caught you doing?” Says mason.
“I dunno, probably something like dancing in my room naked when I was 15?” you say talking a sip of your wine, “you?”
Masons cheeks blush as he looks down.
“No. Fucking. Way. Mason Mount please don’t tell me your parents have walked in on you having sex?”
“Yep, most traumatic moment of my life” you and mason were in fits on the bed, laughing away.
It got to about 1am there was so doubt the two of you were drunk. You were both ignoring that you were going to have raging hangovers tomorrow, instead just enjoying each others company. You had managed to get on like a house on fire, which for you and mason was completely out of character, you were supposed to hate each other.
“Why do you hate me?” You couldn’t stop the words from spilling out of your mouth, a burning question that you’ve always wanted to ask mason.
The smile on his face fades as he downs the rest of his drink, pouring out another one. “I don’t hate you”
You sit there in silence for a moment before mason speaks up again, “why do you hate me?”
You look up at him with a simple smile, “I don’t hate you” you say, repeating his words.
“Y/n?”
“Mason”
“What would you do if I kissed you?”
“I don’t know” you mumble.
You look up to stare into his dark chocolate brown eyes, you could easily get lost in his eyes. You examine every freckle on his nose before your eyes dart down to his tongue that was wetting his lips before he speaks up again.
“Y/n?”
“Mason”
“Can I kiss you?”
You just nod your head frantically before masons hands make there way to your face and your lips collide, your teeth clash as you feel his smile on your lips. The kiss was slow and passionate, nothing like you have ever felt before.
You lean forward pushing all your weight onto mason so your on top of him, his hands move from you face to your waist where he gave a tight squeeze.
Once you pull apart for air, mason brushes the hair out of you face and behind your ear.
“You’ve got no idea how long I’ve wanted to do that” he breathlessly says.
“I think you should do it again”
“Me too” he mumbles onto your lips.
He tasted like wine and mint. His skin felt like soft silk. His hair felt cotton and his lips felt like they were made for yours.
Mason places his hand on your back as he turns you over gently, so he’s now on top. You're both trying to not break the kiss while taking your clothes off at the same time.
Masons lips remove from yours for a split second as he helps you remove your jumper and t shirt, he stares at your breasts like a teenage boy who’s never seen a pair of boobs in his life.
"your beautiful, you know that?"
You tried to hide the blush rising on your cheeks.
His face then moves to your left boob as he starts to trace circles with his tounge. His free hand rubbing your other boob as his thumb traces your hard nipple.
He then pulls away and placed kisses from your torso to your stomach, leaving a sloppy kiss on your pubic bone.
Mason sits up and pulls his top over his head as he then dives down to pull off your joggers and knickers, throwing them somewhere around the room.
You were completely naked, but for some reason you didn't feel exposed.
Mason snaked his hands under your thighs and placed them on his shoulders.
You felt his hot breath fan you leaking core, his tongue fattens as he does one long lick up your wet slit. Mason savers this taste, just incase he never got the chance to taste you again.
And with that his tongue was doing everything right. He gently swirled your clit before he dipped in an out of your hole teasing your slightly.
"mase, im so close"
"hold it for me, darling" mason says as he pulls away.
You felt a whine leave your mouth as he pulled of you to sit up and pull his joggers off.
"patience sweetheart" he was standing there naked, and it was...big. You watched as pre cum leaked from his tip as he climbed on top of you. He placed a kiss on your temple. He held eye contact with you as he ripped open the condom packet.
He put the condom on and lined himself up with your slit, he slowly inserted himself in you, you both gasp in sync once he is completely inside of you. Your legs wrap around his waist as you watch your back fro a better angle.
Mason intertwined your fingers and held your hand above your head. His moments were slow at first, slow and deep, every time he pulled out and pushed back in he hit your g spot.
"Mason, faster"
And before you knew it mason was pounding inside of you, the only noise in the room was both of your heavy breathing and the slapping of your skin.
You knew it wouldn't be long before you came, you felt a knot form in your stomach, it growing tighter with ever thrust. You knew mason was close too by how sloppy his thrusts were getting.
He took his hand out of the grip of yours and placed them in his mouth, then using his wet fingers to rub slow circles on your clit.
"cum with me y/n, please"
And with them simple words of encouragement your back arched, your skin squashing together as mason felt you grow tighter. your orgasm hitting you hard.
Mason collapsed on top of you, his face burred in your neck as he was still inside of you.
"I think I love you" muffles mason into your neck.
You just giggle and place your hands in his hair, knowing it was the alcohol talking.

Loving the new hype that the JJK anime is bringing!! Can I ask for Yuji x strong fem reader? How would he react to her getting hurt and how would he want to be comforted?? I adore your writing. Keep up the good work ✨
Hey! A Itadori request 🤧 best boy for sure haha. I loved today’s episode! Thank you so much for the compliment! I’m glad that you like my writing, I was a little nervous to start this without knowing if my writing was good enough and not mediocre but comments like this makes my day better and excited to keep writing!
Fushiguro and Y/n were the ones assigned to search for the Sukuna finger. That’s the moment when they met Itadori.
It was a weird meeting if you think about it. However, after that, Y/n and Itadori had been attached to the hip.
The two of them got along almost immediately. They relationship based in playful fighting and teasing. Y/n trying to make Itadori blush without avail (the boy was too oblivious for his own good).
The two of them usually trained together. When they first started their training, Itadori was nervous to do it. What if he hits her too hard? Or if she ends up with a nasty injure?
However, while overthinking, Y/n had already take him down.
Their training sessions consisted in Y/n betting Itadori up. He hasn’t been able to win against her, not even once.
Without realizing it, the two of them had caught feelings. In a pretty Itadori way, he had purred his feelings in one of their training sessions without knowing it. It made Y/n blush and unable to focus at the start, however, Itadori didn’t realize his opportunity and just walked over to her and kissed her lips.
Their friends had laugh and tease them at how Itadori had confessed. Y/n didn’t mind really. She was happy with Itadori now.
From then on, the two of them haven’t had to worry about the other. The two of them being sent to missions together with the other two first years.
Today was the same. The four of them had been sent on a mission together.
“Here’s where the Sukuna finger is suppose to be?” Fushiguro turned to look at Itadori who had his arm in Y/n shoulder while walking. He deadpanned.
“You’re our radar. You should know already.”
Y/n stifle a giggle from her friend remark. Her boyfriend turned to look at her with a fake glare.
They keep walking in the area. They were walking around an hospital, the area was surrounded by trees though. Something weird for an hospital to be.
It didn’t take long for the curses to began acknowledging their presence. The four first years decided to separate in pairs. Itadori and Y/n, while Fushiguro went with Kugisaki.
“Yuuji.” Y/n called at her boyfriend while following the curse running away from them.
Itadori glazed at her showing he was listening to her.
“Don’t let Sukuna out...”
Before the mission, Gojo had pulled Y/n out and talked to her privately.
“I need to ask for a favor Y/n-Chan!”
Y/n crossed her arms at her teacher childish tone. He just smiled at her.
It surprised her how serious he got a second after smiling.
“Don’t let Sukuna take control over Itadori’s body.”
“Huh? Why? I mean, haven’t he taken over before?”
“Yeah, but we don’t have to get used to his strength.”
Itadori hummed at her. His attention was in the curse in front of them. Her words weren’t something he retained in his head.
After her intermission, she put all her attention on the curse. The two of them had to be able to exorcise it without problem but the thing was too fast.
The chasing kept going for a long time. Neither of the two paying attention to their surroundings at the moment. The curse had been able to attract them just the way it wanted.
It took her a while to understand what was this weak curse doing. It had lead them to the boss. The curse that had the Sukuna finger.
It was too late though. The bigger and stronger curse got out of her hiding spot. It had a humanoid body but one could tell that the thing wasn’t human.
The first thing Y/n noticed was how the former curse they were chasing joined the bigger curse’s body
‘So it was part of it... Gross.’
Itadori had run from the left while Y/n went from the right. They strategy was simple. Land fast hits while dodging their attacks.
It worked at the start. However, the longer they hit it, the bigger it got.
“Why aren’t we dealing damage?!”
“Maybe because we’re attacking with cursed energy...”
Itadori turned to look at his girlfriend with a bewildered look.
“How else are we suppose to attack?!”
Y/n straighten her posture. She closed her fist in front of her. In a fats movement she had hit the curse with her pure raw strength. The curse hit back but she was able to dodge and go back to Itadori’s side.
“Why did you do that!” Itadori got close to her checking to see if she was injured or some fatal wound. Y/n smiled at him taking his hands off of her telling him that she was fine.
“Sorry, but look.” She pointed to the curse. Itadori turned around to see that Y/n’s punch had made some damage to it.
“I hit it without curse energy...” She got in position again. The enemy had began charging towards them.
Itadori got in fighting stance too.
‘So no curse energy...’ His fist had no longer curse energy. ‘I’ll have to hit it with just my strength!’
Just like their former strategy, they began landing several hits to the curse, this time without cursed energy.
It worked. The pair had manage to weaken the curse. However, in a moment of distraction, the curse had been able to land a hit.
Y/n saw the curse directing its hit in Itadori’s way. Her mind erase anything not related to her boyfriend, her body moving on its own.
Itadori saw everything in slow motion. One moment he was seeing his enemy fist directing to his face and a second later he saw Y/n take the hit for him.
Y/n feel her body making it’s way to the ground. Itadori’s reflexes saved her from the fall. Now in his arms he retreated a few steps from the curse in a frantic state to check on Y/n.
“Y/n! Hey!” He shook her body a little. “Y/n! Answer me!”
The girl opened her eyes a little. Her head turning to Itadori.
“Yuuji... Im fine...” Y/n tried to stand up but her body gave up against her will.
Yuuji bit his lip at his girlfriend state. He was mad at himself. He should have seen the attack coming his way! If he had he could have dodge and the two of them could have exorcised the curse already!
The descontrol in his emotions had given Sukuna a chance to take over his body without Itadori realizing it.
“Yuuji...! No!” It frustrate her how her voice sound so small. Sadly, she couldn’t do much since her body had run out of energy, her consciousness slowly fading away.
“You care too much about her, brat! Your emotions leaded to my freedom!”
Sukuna had easily defeated the curse. It caught his attention how Itadori hadn’t made an attempt to go back to his body.
Sukuna’s loud and wicked laugher filled the area.
Kugisaki and Fushiguro arrived at the scene. It took them a minute to let the imagen sick in their brain. Fushiguro sprinted to Y/n’s body while Kugisaki followed suit.
Fushiguro had taken Y/n’s body, Kugisaki was in position if Sukuna tried to do something.
“Itadori! Y/n is fine!” Fushiguro yelled for Itadori to come back. Y/n didn’t need Sukuna right now. She needed Itadori Yuuji, her boyfriend !
“Don’t let Sukuna take all the control!” Kugisaki joined Fushiguro trying to get Itadori to come back.
“She ne-“
“Yuuji...! Please!” With her last strength, Y/n was able to call for him.
Sukuna tsked. Itadori had taken control again. The first thing his brain had commanded was to run to Y/n and take her to Jujutsu High to take treatment as soon as possible.
Y/n had woke up in her bed. After the treatment, they had let her rest in her room. She groaned at the pain all over her body. She tried to moved to get out of bed but there was an additional weight in her. Taking a better look at herself she saw her boyfriend cuddling in her side.
Y/n smiled at how cute Itadori looked cuddle beside her like a cat. She run her fingers in his hair gently. Itadori began to stir from his sleep. His movements still affected by his sleepy mode, his eyes landed in his girlfriend’s smiling face.
Y/n was amused at his reaction. His sleepiness had faded faster that lighting, now being replace by an excited Itadori.
“You woke up!” He had throw himself in her without realizing it. Y/n groaned again at the force.
Itadori let go in a hurry, it was funny how fast his body moved trying to check for any more injuries or wounds in her body.
“Yuuji...” She tried to stop him but Itadori didn’t listen to her. “Yuuji! I’m fine!”
Y/n stopped his frantic moves taking his face in her hands. She tried to make eye contact but Itadori kept avoiding her eyes.
“Yuuji... Look at me please...”
Slowly and with trembling eyes, Itadori had focus her eyes on hers.
“I’m sorry... I was so scared when I saw you laying in my arms...!”
Y/n offered a gentle smile trying to ease his stress but Itadori kept getting worked up.
“And I could do anything! And Sukuna ha-“
Itadori was unable to kept talking with his girlfriend lips on his. He corresponded almost instantly. Trying to drown his worries, making sure that she was alive, beside him.
When the need for oxygen had presented, they separate from each other. Y/n got ride of the little tears escaping from his eyes gently with her thumb, he hadn’t realized they were there.
“Why don’t we cuddle?” Itadori nodded at her words, laying gently beside her.
“It wasn’t your fault Yuuji. I chose to protect you. And I’ll happily do it again.”
Itadori hugged her tighter at her words.
“Thank you...”
She stroked his hair gently. Itadori relaxed at the sweet action.
“You know...”
Itadori turned to look at her from his spot. Y/n avoided his eyes with a red face.
“You look kinda hot when Sukuna takes over your body...”
Itadori looked at her with a deadpanned expression.
“Gross Y/n.”

Hashira ft. Sabito as genshin impact players
aunotes : Bad grammar ahead! I didnt proofread it so be aware of brain damage. plus i initially wrote it at the 1.6 update
PART 1 : T.Muichiro, R.Kyojuro, K.Shinobu, S.Sanemi, U.Tengen 
Muichiro : he probably would be uninterested at first. He's more to first person shooting game or anything other than this concept of farming or investing. So that's why when he saw yuichirou banging his fist on his desk, trying to get his fav character, he would simply just watch
"Fck this game, i've had enough,"
"But you havent finish your wishing things yet,"
Stares. "How about you give it a try mui. You might get the character i want,"
"You sure about that? You might get angry at me," "better than nothing. Now go go, get em you donkey,"
His first ten pulls on the game brings out a light we all want to see
"Eh is tha-" "AAAA A FUCKING 5 STAR FCK FCKFCK,"
Apparently, it was one of the luckiest wish yuichiro had ever seen so far
"OHMYFUCK, you GOT A GODDAMN KLEE, QIQI AND SUCROSE WTFF???"
"I think i get your fav character?"
"Yeahh!! More than that to be honest. I want klee but you brought me two more person," sniffles and cries "you're really lucky mui. You should try and play the game,"
"It's probably the system. I doubt im that lucky tho,"
Nah, he really is lucky. Apparently he wished for his friends and got what they all really wanted for so long
"Thank you for getting me the aquila favonia, muichiro,"
"It's nothing really. I just simply press the button. It might be the system that's giving you the thing you want when i wish,"
"But still, even if i were to wish, i can get really scared and paranoid over it,"
"That's bad. You shouldnt invest yourself that much in the game tanjiro. It's just a game,"
"Ehehehe, i guess so. But you're really good at it muichiro! If you download it, we can play together :D!"
!!!!
It took the word "play together" to get muichiro down on his knee for that game. Usually the idea of playing with your friends is not that interesting. So when tanjiro said that, you bet he's going to play it
Type of player
Extremely lucky it's not even real. He got a five star on the beginner's banner
Fast farming. He probably will complete all the quest and become an endgame player within one month
"I just wanted to play with tanjiro..." bashfully
He's really good with whatever he's doing. Attack combo, dodging, elemental reaction and all sorts of stuff. If he invest more of his time on artifacts, he would probably even one shot it!!
He's very lucky. Very
Kyojuro : he wouldnt even know the existence of this game. Well, he took a glimpse of it one day and boom, heart stolen. Maybe it was the fiery burning passion in bennett that made him play the game.
'oh wow!! What a determined young boy! Even though he has a very bad luck he still keep pushing forward! Amazing!!'
'I want to be like him'
Kyojuro's the type of player to read and pay attention to every single lore of his fav character. Bennett, oh my how he wish he could've had bennett in his team. Every wishes he made would make him a c6 bennett main if only barbara wont stop coming home
"I really like you barbara but i dont want you!! Thank you for the c6 though!! I promise to use you in the future but just-" he prepares to wish
"not NOW!!" Clicks
The highest con of bennett he had ever gotten is probably c1. One day the paimon's bargain shop offered bennett as their monthly character. Kyojuro had never been so excited over a game before. He usually perks up over academics and not this kind of thing. But it's bennett, the character he admires the most.
Unfortunately he couldnt get it due to low currency. He had never feel so sad in his life.
"I shall not give up. Dont worry, i will be a c6 bennett main!!!"
He will be a c6 bennett haver!!
Type of player :
Carefully reads every stories and listens to their lines attentively. He finds it amazing how the company spent their everything on this game. It amazes him. From the stories, lores and lines, he truly appreciates it.
Balance his team pretty well. He mains bennett so he doesnt need that much of a healer in his team.
Enjoys bennett's hangout very much!! He tried to not get him killed by the dungeon's trap but ended up having to sacrifice him which ultimately ends the route. He had never felt so down and guilty before.
Not much of a damage dealer. He prefers to play it in normal mode and doesnt care that much about one shotting monster.
He feeds his character three meals a day!! If only there's a sleep option, he would be sending bennett to sleep first before the rest.
Everyone loves his teapot
Shinobu : found the game while she's scrolling through the app store out of boredom. Initially she played it on her phone but due to the fps and a really bad ping, so bad that douma wouldnt find her interesting anymore, she finally downloaded the game on her pc where things has starting to get real
"Ara, shinobu chan, it's lunch time already. Come downstairs please,"
"Sis give me five more minutes, JUST FIVE PLEASE I NEED TO KICK CHILDE's ASS,"
"he's not going anywhere sweetie,"
"yEAHH BUT MY BP IS,"
'Bp?'
"DIE DIE DIE!!" Aggresive clicking intensifies
"Shinobu chan dont hurt the keyboard that much!!"
She got lucky on the beginner's banner too and pulled a 5 star along with bennett and noelle. Who's the 5 star? Diluc Ragnvindr in all of his glory. Shinobu benched him sadly. She prefers sword over any other weapon
"I mean he's cool i guess but i just really dont get that 'WOAHHH COOL' vibe from him you know?"
"then give your diluc to me! I really want him so bad shinobu chan!"
Deep sighs "yeah sure. You can have my c2 diluc mitsuri..."
Loses 50/50 to diluc everytime everyone would think she either is lucky or cursed by the amount of that man greeting him on the screen. She still bench him though, sadly
"Im begging you, give me jEANN THE GRANDMASTER I NEED HEALER iN MY PARTY TO DO ABYSS
Type of player :
Suffers a lot in the abyss because she just want the primos which is a valid reason to do because that's the only thing that keeps her going
She's a sword character main. She'll properly build every character as either support or dps. The support would be kaeya and bennett, and her main dps ayaka
Ayaka main btw
Honestly at some point she wanted to quit the game because of how tiring it is but then inazuma came out
Fragile resin = 0
Resin = 160/160 happens once in a blue moon
"i should probably control myself with the amount of resin i've used,"
"But i cant,"
Hates domain but always can be seen playing in there
Only coops if mitsuri is there
"So that someone can calm me down,"
"That's not a really good reason shinobu chan,"
Sanemi : dude probably know the game through obanai. He watched the latter play and finds it interesting on how high the numbers he dealt. He loves challenges so a game like genshin impact would probably satisfy his need.
"Obanai, are you hearing this shit?"
"What is it sanemi, im busy doing this event,"
"That loser giyuu is also playing the game,"
"Oh yeah i know,"
"YOU KNOW? WHY YOU DIDNT TELL ME??"
"i just know right after you told me,"
"...."
Sanemi's a meta but a mediocre one. He's meta but he doesnt show it that much. Probably buys welkin once in every three months or when he really needs it same goes with battle pass too. Honestly, he really just use his money when he really needs something
"Donno if my allowance can buy me a welkin so i'll probably skip,"
"But the next banner is zhongli's,"
"....."
"Ah fuck it," buys
My man cant dodge after he got zhongli. Its very painful because he used to studies the enemies movement in the early game so that he can utilizes it on the team but zhongli's shield is so tank he forgot that dodging exists
"Im gonna kill you and you and you hhahaahhaah just you wait im gonna shred all of yo- oh shit zhongli's shield. puT IT BACK PUT IT BACK ON,"
That one event where zhongli's shield plays an important role in the domain? Yeah, he felt like a god at that time. Even got his c2 on his rerun. Sanemi just really like zhongli because it kinda reminds him of himejima. Calm and wise and strong too. He looks up on that kind of person
"Zhongli sama, im in debt for all of your hard work protecting my team," bows and wipes tears
Type of player :
Spends a little money on the game to get what he wants
Zhongli main
Is that one player that has hoards of food but doesnt even use it
"Why need healer when you have zhongli's shield,"
Compare to kyojuro, he doesnt even touch the teapot because he finds it ridiculous and bothersome to create and design everything in it
Loves one shotting bosses and compares it to giyuu. He ask for advices from obanai regarding team build supports and stuffs
Doesnt do character's story quest. The key is full every single time. He unlocks it but leaves the quest like that.
"Ah shit, i accidentally activate the quest,"
His friend list only has obanai in it. Whenever people sent him friend request, he wouldnt hesitate, more like wouldnt care to accept it
They either have to coop in obanai's world or his world and after that, unfriend immediately
Says thank you after coop because he has manners and then completely disappears
"Zhongli main forever,"
Tengen : played since 1.0 this madlad has been staying loyal to the game ever since. Quite huge amount of money he spend on this game to be honest but he never gets broke by it. You can see his regular donation to the game by purchasing welkin and battle pass and some genesis crystal too. He's loaded with money, he didnt know what to do with it.
Uzui also plays honkai impact and guns girl Z so when he saw the unknown god at the intro , he was not surprised.
"Oh we have to pick between the siblings? Cool cool co- oh hi kiana,"
"Thats so herrscher of void hahahahah,"
Although he is a loyal fan to MihoYo games, he lost his composure when he saw the 1st genshin anniversary reward because what was that. Imagine getting billions of money and they give us this? Tengen cant believe this shit
"Oh god wtf was that reward, i have to draw to get a welkin and some primos?? aND I ALSO HAVE TO BE LUCKY? WHAT-"
"WHERE'S MY FREE MONA,"
In need of mona. He needs mona so bad he literally spent his money on standard banner to get mona but always ends up with qiqi. Not that he's complaining but he just wants the astrologist to complete the support team
"GOD QIQI YOU AGAIN? WTF WFF WTF-" converts genesis crystal to primigems
"Tengen, you should control yourself!"
"SHUT UP KYOJURO, IM GONNA WASTE MY MONEY TILL I GET HER,"
"yeah but my f2p ass is hurting with how many bennett cons you got," droops
Tengen sees potential in every character. Everyone has their weakness and strength so when kokomi comes out, he diss her at first but then realize maybe its a new way for a character. Adds the uniqueness if he may say so.
"Meh i dont care honestly. You guys should pull whoever you find nice or beautiful. Like me ;)"
"Who do you main uzui?"
"Beidou,"
Type of player
Spoils the storylines, lores, leaks A LOT THE REST HAVE TO BLOCK HIM ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Speed runs the game and has become an endgame player ever since but he still does his daily commission and helps people with domains and stuffs
R5 every battle pass weapon
Fights azhdaha for fun and to test out his characters rather than ruin guards and stuff
Mona wanter
Puts traveller as the pfp and doesnt display any showcase of his characters and namecards. You can only see his achievements and spiral abyss ( 12-3 ). Says its for fun and mystery
Throws a lot of pickup lines and roleplays a lot. Spams your chatbox messages with stickers and censored stuffs
Probably steals your ores and exotic things like violetgrass, qingxin and silk flowers
Screams in the chatbox whenever he saw Mona until Kyojuro had to calm him down
Changes signature every single time and sometimes put spoilers in it
In every survey he would complain "MihoYo where the fuck is my Mona,"
Doesnt heals his characters

Tumblr media
Today was payday.
“You look…” Charles made a face. “Vibrant.”
“I get paid!” you squealed.
“Oh, boy,” Charles said. “You know there’s more to life than money, [Name]. There’s knowledge. You could always learn more. There’s love. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you with a significant other, honestly. There’s—”
You waved a dismissive hand. “I know all that already! I’m satisfied, Charles. It’s just not so bad to be financially secure while I’m at it. Money is the best thing ever!”
“Money is the root of all evil.”
“The root of all evil is buried deep within that chest of yours,” you accused. You picked up a clean rag and soaked it in a water basin. “You never let me have any fun on payday. Anyway, today there’s a new book being released, and I’ve been waiting for the sequel since forever.”
Charles nodded. “I think I know which book you’re talking about. Give it time and your librarian friend will have it in the library in no time.”
“That very librarian friend is coming today to hand-deliver the book to me.”
“Of course. Never once would you abandon your shift for books. Though, I think I’ve once seen you leave midway through the day because you saw a cat on the balcony while standing outside.”
“It was a cute cat,” you defended. 
“You shouldn’t make friends with cats. They’re very picky and particular with whom they associate with.”
“Ah,” you said absentmindedly, “like Master Diluc.”
“[Name], that’s your boss.”
You deserved the reprimand. “Sorry. It’s not anything bad. I actually took your advice the other day and chatted with him a bit. He’s not as… cold as I thought, but he’s certainly as chilly as Snezhnaya at times.”
Diluc had been somewhat stubborn when you insisted on helping him. You didn’t understand. It was only natural to be there for other people; however, Diluc believed differently. He was right in some ways. Too much dependency would lead one to no good, but that was not your concern.
“Before comparing your employer to one of the coldest nations in Teyvat,” Charles said, “I nominate you to call for Patton a bit today. He’s coming in late ‘cause he’s wrapped up with something today.”
“Do you think me standing out there would do the tavern some good?”
“Try wearing a costume. Draws attention.”
“Right on. Let me see if there’s any maid uniforms in the back.”
As much as you worshipped your own looks on a daily basis, standing outside where Patton typically was took a toll on your body. But your mental health persevered. After all, you were getting paid today. Nothing could deter your smile.
You stood outside, calling out passing people with hopes of luring them in with Dandelion Wine. Diona, who worked at Cat’s Tail, stopped by to convince you to join her tavern. She was ultimately dedicated to sabotaging the traditional and rich wine industry of Mondstadt yet was doing rather poorly at it. You declined politely, as your job was the wine industry of Mondstadt.
Nimrod, one of the usuals, entered the tavern. He dodged his wife who condemned his drinking habits. He typically hung around Angel’s Share for the addicting wine. It was not strange to see him coming in and out of alleyways.
Not even the approaching Master Diluc could taint your spirits.
The approaching Master Diluc.
You’d recognize his hair and determined face anywhere. You were accustomed to seeing it, as you saw him often. You smiled and greeted him accordingly just before he entered the tavern. “Hello, Master Diluc. Have a good day today.”
“I will,” he said. “I assume today’s a good day for you, too.”
“Of course.”
Donna was giving him puppy-dog eyes around the corner, you saw, but she gave him puppy-dog eyes every day, so what was new? Diluc, the brooding bachelor bastard of Mondstadt, was the center of many ladies’ attention.
He was the center of yours because your paycheck was in his hands. 
Days and weeks went by.
Because you knew Diluc’s secret and nighttime hobby, it wasn’t strange for you and he to grow closer. When he’d come back to the tavern, you arranged a nice meal for him to eat. Heroes needed plenty of food, you figured. 
Sometimes, you’d eat with him in agonizing silence.
He made for mediocre company, but when it was late at night and you had nothing to do, he was a fine person to talk to. He kept his distance, preferring to sit a seat away from you at the bar, idly standing when you were sitting at a table. But you never felt alone on those nights. 
Diluc came back injured sometimes, and as each night passed, he let you tend to his wounds pathetically before he went to see a doctor. You didn’t know if he was humoring your concern or if he seriously needed your help.
Even without you, he was doing just fine, but little by little, akin to a trickling stream, he began to rely on you. Another person’s trust was a heavy thing to carry, and Diluc’s trust was the weight of the entire world upon your shoulders. You feared that if you ever messed up, Diluc’s trust would be gone in a snap. 
Diluc and you shared meals, which was nothing out of the ordinary now, but there was small conversation. Diluc, to your knowledge, never really participated in idle chatter, but he talked with you about the sights he’d seen around Liyue, the hub of business in Teyvat, and you retold jokes your friends had said and rumors about a certain person that were made just to pass time. 
You could pull vicarious wonder when Diluc told you of the other nations. You’d venture there yourself, but your skills in the adventuring department were lacking.
You admitted that you were wrong about Diluc; where you had thought him cold and stoic, he was protective and brave. He treasured his work above nearly everything—to the point he overworked. In a way he was somewhat like you. A little different, though. A little stranger. A little better.
Diluc had grand aspirations and was bold personified. You, too, had something to live for, but it wasn’t as great as his. You liked the little things; you liked the dog who wagged his tail whenever you passed in hopes of you giving it a treat; you liked shopping with your friends; you liked reading new books and joking around with Lisa.
You and Master Diluc seem to complement each other, that’s all, Charles had said then.
“Charles, you’re insane,” you said, pushing Charles’ shoulder. “It’s never going to work. Patton would never agree to putting on the maid dress.”
“And if we bribe him?” Charles asked.
Diluc was standing on the other side of the bar, a brow quirked and a smile lapping at his lips. His arms were crossed, and as much as he tried to seem intimidating, he looked like a friend to you. Before, you would have seen him as judgmental and indifferent, but the Diluc before you was someone who you knew better.
“How much do you think we should give Patton? Maybe we need to sort into bigger pockets.” You peered at Diluc.
Charles said, “What—do you think Master Diluc is willing to put on such a uniform?”
You laughed, and Diluc was looking at you. He didn’t look upset at all. His face was calm, and his pretty cupid’s bow lips were drawn in an amused smile. Oh, he was gorgeous—and upon that thought intruding your headspace, you nearly stopped laughing.
Sometimes Diluc would bring you small trinkets from the winery. You once brought up you wanted an owl statue to put on your balcony to attract other owls (though you were sure that wasn’t how nature worked), and Diluc, sure enough, gave you an owl statue around the size of your torso. 
“Master Diluc,” you said. “What is this?”
“An owl statue.”
“Gee, wow! I thought it was a penguin.” You tentatively patted the top of its head. “What’s it for?”
“You,” he said. “I had it laying around the winery.”
It provoked thought in you. What sort of person had an owl statue laying around? You felt the need to give Diluc something back, but what did you have to give him? So that very night, you took him outside of Mondstadt so you could capture a Mist Flower Corolla for your friend. 
Typically, you wouldn’t take your employer out on an errand, but you were done with work, so it wasn’t Master Diluc. It was just Diluc. Diluc looked like he wanted to say no to you because he didn’t really devote his time into something so trivial, but you insisted.
“If you needed it that badly,” Diluc said, “you could have asked me. We have plenty near the winery, and I can take care of them easily.”
“It’s not that,” you said, watching an Ice Flower bloom and freeze the water around it. “It’s about the adventure. The message.”
“And what’s this message you speak of?”
“It’s the message of ‘hey, I nearly froze my ass off to get this flower for you, but I care about you enough to risk frostbite.’”
“How… kind of you, [Name].”
You and Diluc spent all night catching enough Mist Flower Corollas for your liking. You wanted a bouquet, and you had a bouquet at the end of the night, at the expense of Diluc’s time and your sleep. You carried the bundle in your hands happily.
Diluc’s fire skills came handy, and it wouldn’t be a lie if you said you brought him along just for it. You liked his personality and his friendship, of course, but his fire skills were a… plus!
On the nights where it was just you and he, Diluc sat nearer to you now. Diluc picked up Charles’ shifts more often and sat across from you whenever you were seated at tables. He sat next to you at the bar, entertaining you out of your boredom. 
It wasn’t until one day, Donna of the flower shop was gushing about Diluc, and you felt uneasy. You’d known that Donna was incredibly fond of Diluc, but it never bothered you until now. 
Of course, you brought it up to Charles, one of your closest confidants, only third to your bank account and Lisa.
“He likes you back, you know,” Charles said, playing with the tip jar. The coins clinked and clanked in there. “I can tell you that much, [Name].”
“Ewwwwww,” you moaned. “Talking to you about my problems is gross. Where’s Lisa? She’ll tell me the truth for sure. You only want me happy so I can clean the entire tavern for free again. You want me to cover your shift again?”
“Sure I do,” Charles said, “but what I’m saying is true, [Name]. He looks at you all funky.”
“Yeah, because I’m a funky gal.”
“Stop it.”
“Funky, funky, funky.”
“Please.” Charles sighed and set down the tip jar. “It’s like… you and he are weirdly connected. He looks at you a lot. He always looks at you whenever there’s a joke, just to see if you’re laughing, I guess. He must like your laugh. I think it sounds like a horse, personally.”
You chewed the inside of your cheek. You loved talking to Charles. You loved money. You loved your friends, and you loved your happiness. You loved—no, you liked Diluc. You didn’t know what to do when it came to him. Maybe if you kept away, your affections would find someone else to torment.
Like, for example, that newly hired boy next door that nearly killed his shop’s plants. He was a clumsy sort of cute. 
But Diluc was not clumsy. He was meticulous and always got the job done. He took care of himself well, and on days he overworked, you made sure he took some time to rest. 
You shook your head. You should stop thinking about Diluc for now and focus.
Yet it was always you and Diluc, and Diluc began to invade your thoughts. You brought up weaving flowers into his long hair, and Diluc always turned you down, saying that there wasn’t enough time for that. 
You wished to brush Diluc’s bangs back and lightly kiss his forehead, if he was okay with that. Instead, you said to Diluc, you have a big forehead. No wonder you’re so smart.
Can we go back to the part where you said I had a big forehead? he’d retorted.
It wasn’t until nearly a month later did Diluc come to his shift with Mist Flower Corollas in hand and shyly handed them to you. There was a red hue on his cheeks, and his voice was small, afraid of rejection. His hair was tied back in a neater fashion, and his eyes were cast downward.
Become someone dear to me, he had said.
He wore fine clothes and a nervous expression. It was so out of character for Diluc. You felt as if you were watching a high school boy struggle to express his feelings. However, had Diluc walked into the tavern with a more open chest and chin up, he wouldn’t have been Diluc at all. 
You liked Diluc as he was—somewhat closed off but kind enough. Mondstadt’s hero. A knight who donned glimmering red hair and a steel exterior. You wondered if Diluc had to prep himself before coming to you. 
“Sorry,” he said although there was nothing to be sorry for, really. “I mean, if you don’t like the flowers—”
Hey, I nearly froze my ass off to get this flower for you, but I care about you enough to risk frostbite.
You took the flowers. “Oh, no, I love it. I really, really do, Master Diluc!”
“Just Diluc.”
“Diluc,” you corrected. “Do I get financial compensation if I become someone dear to you?”
“For starters, I could give you a Mist Flower Corolla every day,” Diluc said, “if that’s enough to satiate you.”
“And then?”
“In the evenings, I’d take you to Cider Lake to watch the starry night while you read those magazines of yours. We don’t need to talk. Just bask in each other’s company, really.”
You tried to fight the smile that was growing on your face. You set down the flowers on the bar counter before saying, “that’s it?”
“I’d let you weave flowers into my hair. I’d take you all over Teyvat, if that’s what you wished as well. I’d take care of you as much as you had taken care of me whenever I’m injured. I’d learn your jokes and get along well with your friends because they seem pleasant.”
You didn’t know Diluc was such a romantic. You dusted Diluc’s shoulder. “I would hold your hand.”
Diluc frowned. “This doesn’t feel very equal to me.”
“You want more?” you quipped. “I’d kiss your forehead. And then I’d read to you. That is, if you like fairy tales… Oh! And then I’d take you up to the mountains where we could see the constellations the best! I love constellations; they’re so pretty.”
“Truthfully,” Diluc admitted, “you don’t have to do anything. I think… I think I’d be satisfied if I just had your company.”
“Would you now? And what about Donna from the flower shop?”
“What about her?”
“Oh, nothing.” You pretended to think about Diluc’s proposal. “I have to say, I think I’m enchanted by your offer, Diluc. I’m going to have to say yes. I will become someone dear to you.”

im going to outline all of my thoughts about spiderman no way home here, i also do not think mcu spoilers matter so im going to just throw this out there and if you don’t want to see spoilers then look away. ok anyway
• lots of weird writing weird choices , the story was . not good
• there was one really good scene in which the three spidermen are talking and theyre like “so uhh does the. does the web come out of anywhere else or…. you don’t have to say it if it’s too personal but….. unless?” and i hope people share just that clip on its own. it is the only part of the movie worth watching. it goes on for *just* a bit too long
• all the usual marvel actors were fine and mediocre and whatever. like they werent bad but they were just fine. HOWEVER the actors from the other spiderman movies did SO good, willem dafoe fucking killed it, so like the juxtaposition definitely did not do the marvel people any favors lol
• say the line bart
• for some reason for the first half or so there was this weird subtext(?) going on between doc ock and green goblin which was confusing for me and also the audience around me, like there was an audible confused chuckle, they were alone in a room together and he was like “imagine…. just you…… just me………..” and it was like. Huh?? i can only hope this doesn’t spark something terrible. also hope we don’t start seeing anything about marvel’s first gay character. also doc ock’s wife just died leave him be
• i just know andrew garfield was putting all the bisexual energy he could into his performance. and i salute him for it
anyway in conclusion it’s not good enough to go see but somebody should post the good parts online. i give it a 3/10, one point per spiderman one point for doctor octopus and one point for willem dafoe, minus two points for curing mental health issues with unexplained science and also for that as a plot point to begin with. the plot was bad

HC: BNHA Boys x Aizawa’s Daughter! Reader
Anonymous: Hello, Can I request headcanon for Todoroki, Bakugou and Midoriya who is dating Aizawa's daughter? She is in class 1-A but has a Quirk different from his
Hello anon! Im super sorry but I only did Shoto and Bakugo because of how long I made them- I hope you dont mind!
*Important Note: kinda backstory-ish so the HC’s make sense-basically y/n is adopted by Aisawa from a young age and she ironically has a quirk that intensifies other quirks
Alrightie thats all I wanted to add- hope you enjoy!
-----------------------------
SHOUTO
Tumblr media
Aizawa totally saw that you two liked each other- you were his daughter, like of course he sees this!
Whenever Shouto would talk to you, your face would become a soft shade of pink and your nervousness would come out- you’d stumble over words, bite your lip, brush your hair behind you ears- the works
Shouto as well- it wasn’t as obvious, but he definitely acted different towards you
One time when Shoto was having a difficult time learning how to get out of zip ties (a strange little side lesson by Midnight- she wanted to show the class how to get out of a kidnapping situation in which Kaminari kept yelling out “this is sooooo kinky!” 
Jirou of course slapped him, which made Aizawa stifle a laugh)
Since you had always been around heroes most of your life, you were taught well in combat and self defense skills
Aizawa watched interested as you helped Todoroki, his face becoming tinted in red and his tone softer
After you had left to do your own assignment, Aizawa had caught Shoto just staring down at his hands in amazement as if he couldn’t believe what just happened
That’s when Aizawa knew you two liked each other
He really was okay with it though-most others would have thought the hero would be over the top protective, but with Shoto-he was a good kid, kinda quiet, had a darker past than most his age but-Aizawa knew Todoroki would never intentionally hurt you.
It took a few long,grueling months for Shoto to finally ask you out, and when he did, Aizawa could only feel relieved-because Jesus Christ he’d been just waiting for you two to just start dating already!
The only thing he was worried about was-well- Shoto’s father
He knew of Endeavor, never personally, just because of the fact that Aizawa never cared for the hero
He saw him as arrogant, rude, and blinded by his own personal agenda- he also knew of Shoto’s distatse for his father, which he knew had to be for a good reason
Shoto and Aisawa had both warned you of his father, with Shoto revealing his dark childhood to you and Aizawa warning you to not cross Endeavor’s path because of his entitled nature
You and Todoroki had no intention of telling his father of your relationship, until the day when you had mistakenly visited Todoroki’s house when his father was home
Was EXTREMELY awkward
Endeavor was not kind to you- in fact he was cold and unforgiving in what he said around you
Endeavor really was flabbergasted- how could his son be wasting his time over some girl? He was also disappointed in his choice- Endeavor found your quirk to be mediocre, since he had noticed you at the Sport’s Festival. He noted that your quirk was essentially only useful to others, nothing flashy about it at all- what a waste
Why couldn't Shoto find someone with more power to add to his family’s already strong gene pool?.
 Yes, he knew you were Aizawa’s daughter- but not even of blood- and even if you were, he wouldnt accept you two going out together
He also went on to say that Shoto should be focusing on his training, not on some little crush
 basically stated you weren't good enough for his family or son
Shoto quickly left with you, trying to reassure as much as possible that what his old man said was not true, and that he loved you no matter what
Did you kinda cry? Yes. And did Todoroki and Aizawa wanna kick Endeavor’s ass? Also a yes
You and Todoroki continued to go out with Aizawa backing you two up, even if Shoto got into a few arguments over you with his father
One day Aizawa was supervising a team building exercise, where it was pairs of two against two. You and Shoto were on one side, while Bakugo and Deku were on the other.
Endeavor had chosen to come to UA  that day to see how his son was improving, looking down at disdain that he was still courting you
Aizawa was not particularly happy having to deal with Endeavor- he knew he was judging your every move, every punch you landed, every mistake you made
You were very good at hand to hand combat though, even without a flashy quirk- as Bakugo and Shoto were sparring, you were taking Izuku head on, making him sweat a little, even with his own quirk against yours.
Endeavor still gave you the biggest dirty look ever
Aiszawa about to throw hands ngl
Then something happened- Izuku was able to finally land a hit on you, using his quirk to launch you back a few feet. You tumbled into the dirt, Todoroki running to see if you were okay.
“What is he doing?!” Endeavor grunted out in frustration, “Why is he-”
You strangely put out your hand, and Todoroki touched it. Endeavor was furious, seeing this as some form of weakness-
Todoroki then turned around, his quirk improving ten fold. Endeavor had never seen anything like it- Shoto had made an ice blast, larger than anyone he had ever seen- even from the Sports Festival.
It was-well- it was even better than his own quirk
 Aizawa looked at Endeavor’s clearly shocked face with a smug expression.
Hell yeah this scum bag now knows his daughter is freaking awesome
But then Endeavor’s mind started to race- clearly your quirk had some merit. If you and Shoto could produce a child with that much power on its own, hell, his family line would forever be the #1 hero!
He grinned at the thought, turning to Aizawa, a little too cheerful
“That’s your daughter, uh-” he searched for your name, “y/n, correct-”
“Dont even start,” Aisawa cut him off, making Endeavor pissed as he walked down to the training grounds quietly to go check up on you.
-----------------------------
BAKUGO
Tumblr media
Bakugo at first was very intimidated by you and was kind of an ass towards you
He knew you had a really useful quirk and was kinda scared of that
He also was so terrfied because he was starting to get the first symptoms of a crush and was too stupid to even admit to it
Classic “I like you so Im going to be mean to you” situation
Wouldn constantly say you only got into UA because of your Dad’s reputation as a Pro Hero/ Teacher
Aizawa would hear about this and would be so mortified- he was worried this would happen when going to UA, and he was extremely angry at Bakugou
But he felt that if he intervened, it would make the situation worse and confirm the rude things Bakugo was saying
You also reassured him that you were okay (even though the rude comments hurt you slightly) but you’d get over it
It just made you upset that Bakugo didnt even want to know you- you thought he was kinda cute even though he could be rude
I fully believe Aizawa (in times of crisis) would consult Midnight and Present Mic for parental advice because its gotta be tough raising a child on your own
Midnight offered to put you and Bakugo together on the next training exercise, so Bakugo would be forced to talk to you and realize you weren't so bad
AIsawa thought about it long and hard and finally agreed- he was scared Bakugo would go and be a jerk to you, but he knew you were capable of dealing with his antics
When Midnight read off the pairings that day, you were both mortified- you because you would have to be stuck with the hot head that hated your guts, while Katsuki was freaking out inside
He was going to act like an idiot around you- what the hell was Midnight thinking?!
Once you two got in the mock city set up for the training exercise, you couldn't even say a word to each other
‘All Bakugo grunted out was, “Just stay out of my way.” and trudged off
“You idiot!” you called out, “we have to work together or we fail-”
Just then, the exercise started and a giant training robot was coming after you- Bakugo feebly tried to blast it, but his flames were too short to even reach the monster
‘Let me help!” you called out, reaching for his hands- you quirk only worked if you could touch the person.
He shrugged off your advances- Jesus Christ if you saw he was getting flustered-
“Hell no!” he yelled out in panic, “Im not letting a little prick like you-”
You grabbed his face between your hands, letting your Quirk transfer to him and making his cheeks bright red
You had never even seen Bakugo so speechless- he looked like a deer in headlights
“Use your quirk!” you yelled out, hiding behind him- you didnt know how powerful his quirk would become, but with experience, you knew it was about to become intense
He shook his head, trying to clear himself of the feeling of your skin on his- it was intoxicating, even though it was only for a few seconds- and why was your presence so irritatingly calming and distracting at the same damn time?! 
His heart was beating so fast, feeling your frame hiding behind him
He smirked, feeling you quirk course through is veins, and raised his arm to shoot a blast of fire at the machine
Instantly, a gigantic explosion of flames leaped out of his hands, shocking him
He instantly grounded his feet, trying to keep up with the power coming out of his hands
The blast went farther than anything he had ever produced (even his signature AP shot), licking up the side of the machine and burning it to a crisp
He looked at his hands and back at you, his heart thumping as you grabbed his shoulders in happiness and wrapping him into an impulsive hug
“We did it Bakugou!” you yelled out cheerfully
He just couldn't stop staring- why did you look so goddamn pretty?
“....Thanks...I guess your quirk is good enough for UA....”  he mumbled out, looking away from you as he said it
You stared at him in shock- did he just- compliment you?
You two instantly won the training exercise, and after that, Bakugo neve bothered you- in fact he kinda just ignored you, like you didnt even exist
He just still couldnt get over the fact that you had touched him, and how he felt when you touched you, seeing those pretty eyes of yours stare into his-
One day Kirihsima caught Bakugo staring at you as you sparred with Izuku, obvious fury in his eyes
“You okay man?” he asked, sitting next to Bakugo
All he did was grunt as the obvious blush grew 
Kirishima would not STOP bothering him to ask you out after that- it was so annoying to him
“Can you shut up? I dont like her?” slowly turned into “Okay you ass I get it I need to ask her out!”
You were always the last to leave class, since you always talk to your dad before you go off to lunch
And Bakugo took note of this
You had thought that the hallway was completely empty, only to see Bakugo resting against  a locker, his arms folded and his head slumped down
“Hey Bakugo!” you greeted kindly, a little nervous- you really didnt know where you two stood as far as relationships go- were you enemies, rivals, acquittances, friends? 
With Bakugo, who the hell knew.
 “Mr. Aisawa is in classroom if you needed help with something, sorry I took so long-”
“I actually-” he gulped slightly, stuffing his hands into his pockets, “I wanted to talk to you.”
Your heart started to pick up in speed- what was this all about?
“Uh, sure, what is it?” you asked politely, walking closer to him. You grabbed onto your backpack strap, gripping hard- you felt like you could float away at any moment, your nerves making your body go haywire.
“I know Ive been an ass,” he started, “and I havent talked to you much, but would you- maybe-uh...uhm..shit!” he cursed as he fumbled on his words, his cheeks a cherry red
You giggled, your face now too hitting up- was this really happening? Was he really going to ask you out?
‘Are you trying to ask me-” you started, but Bakugo instantly cut you off
“Shut up baka I was going to say it!”
“Say what, exactly?” Right at perfect time, Aizawa walked by, standing in front of your two blushing faces, asking in a colder tone than usual.
Bakugo instantly cursed everything in existence- why the hell did his teacher, your dad, show up right now?!
You two both stared at him, not knowing what to do- 
Aizawa was practically staring daggers into Bakugo- fear riddled in Aizawa’s stomach. Bakugo, the most arrogant boy in his class, liked you? He say you as his sweet, innocent little girl- would this hot head destroy that image of you? And a boy who was so cruel to you- you looked ready to even say yes to him after everything he called you!
He had vaguely remembered having a conversation like this with Midnight, in which she tried to explain that most boys who had crushes would react to them with anger in which to cover up their true feelings
To be honest, Aizawa thought it was a boat full of crap until now- now he realized this was why Bakugo had terrorized you so much- but he couldn't get over the fact of how rude he was to you so many weeks back
“Bakugo, I suggest you go to lunch before I send you to the principal’s office for using language like that on school grounds- especially towards my daughter,” he stated cruelly, his eyes cold and menacing. 
Bakugo stared at him, debating whether to yell something back at him- but thinking better of it, he merely just sulked, it taking everything in him to keep his mouth shut.
“Come, y/n, I’ll pick you up something up to eat from the teacher’s lounge,” Aisawa commanded softly to you, just wanting you to stay away from Bakugo for as long as possible.
As you were walking behind Aisawa, you caught a look of Bakugo sulking, looking absolutely defeated
Your heart broke for your crush, and right as your eyes met, you turned around, walking backwards slightly to mouth him a quick ‘Yes” and a smile, watching as a small grin form on Bakugo’s red cheeks
Yeah, your dad did not agree about it at first, but after he realized Bakugo loved you as much as he did and was ready to protect you with his whole life, Aisawa’s walls did melt - slightly

I don’t understand if ur serious when u say that you’re anti fatws (esp bucky) lol???? for real?
yeah i think he’s not bucky. OOC. and like, not for stupid shit, but when it comes to stuff that matters. i always thought bucky has a solid moral compass (similar to steves). i mean just from what we’ve seen in canon, idk if this is just my own intrepratations, but anyway, i don’t agree with his actions, i dont agree with him asking sam to put his safety on the line with the ‘you helped steve with the accords i think you should help me’ ok bucky you were taken in as a refugee by an untouchable nation, sam was put into a supermax prison steve had to break him out of, and then was on the run as a fugitive for two years. the absolute NERVE.
and like, the man he breaks out of prison is z*mo? really? that’s his ABUSER. i don’t understand why no one else seems upset by this. that’s not bucky. OOC. if he wanted any help from z*mo, he could have asked for him to help from behind the bars he very much deserves to be behind. if he refused to help, oh well, too bad, buh bye. i dont understand who thought this was a good idea. are we forgetting z*mo intentionally triggered bucky into going into his winter soldier programming, which resulted in bucky killing again? the thing he did not want to do? he literally says, over and over again, ‘i dont do that anymore’ and ‘i dont want to kill anyone’ and ‘(resigned) wheres the fight’.
im not gonna describe *that scene* that triggered me very badly, if you dont know what im talking about im sorry but i cannot physically write the words. but im very very upset at the writers for a throwaway line that implies past sexual abuse* knowing FULL well the majority of their demographic who like bucky/identify with him are in fact women/afab, and like, going by the statistics alone, would find something like this 1. triggering and 2. a slap in the face. just, for why? what purpose did that line serve, actually? was it necessary? for plot progession? (*though, i maintain, z*mo doesnt know shit, he’s being a dick bc thats half his personality, and talking shit bc thats the other half of his personality). but yeah. one of the major reasons i dont like whoever it was that writes bucky in this show.
another thing, the obsession with the shield? putting all that blame onto sam? i mean... i understand he’s upset about being abandoned by his best friend (and arguably only friend, i guess?) but like. shut up about the shield. shut up about the shield!!! where’s the ‘the little guy from brooklyn, im following him’ like bucky never gave a shit about captain america. whats going on through his head actually? bc like.. if there’s things he’s not saying, we won’t fucking know about them, will we?
i honestly dont know what the writers are doing, i don’t know whether they’re completely misunderstanding his characer, or trying to foreshadow bucky going to the dark side, or whats going on. bc at this point he looks more like an antagonist at the very least, if not outright villain.
the only accurate bucky content i have seen so far is like, him and sam acting like a married couple, him making nerdy references, and the flashback scene in wakanda which is the only time i have seen sebastian stan actually acting.
i don’t know who this fool is, but it’s not bucky.
as for the show in general, im not liking what im seeing, and no i dont need to watch it to form an opinion. not gonna put myself through however many hours of mediocre content. i never had high hopes about it, but this half-assed storyline with the flag smashers (clearly a poor attempt at portraying antifas as the enemy), the super soldier serum, the dollar store captain america, z*mo??? why is he even here????
sam not having enough of the spotlight...in his own goddamn show... like. idk. i think he deserved something of his own. a better storyline. something that’s about *him*, his life, his struggles. with bucky as his sidekick. sam, pretending to be too sensible to run into crazy shit, bucky, resigned, being dragged along, being sam’s wingman, his support. *thats* their dynamic. from what i have seen about sam’s scenes, he seems to be more or less in character, imo, but i just... feel like he’s being sidelined. in his own show.
THE THERAPY/THERAPIST. I hate EVERYTHING about it. from her demeanor, attitude towards her client, not addressing him by his preferred name, her judgmental tone/statements, her belittling/dismissing bucky’s pain, her ‘rules’ and just. everything. everything. for ONCE i would like to see an ACCURATE portrayal of therapy in media. because it’s the opposite. the exact opposite of this. there’s a long thread from twitter i reblogged that goes more into detail, but i think like, it’s one of those things that really piss me off. therapy is about creating a safe space, putting your patients comfort first, listening, empathising, not judging, not mocking, not disrespecting, helping your patient open up, help them recover and make progress at their own pace. i mean. its so disgusting to see this. i’ve never had professional psychologist training, not as part of my degree or anything else, and i wrote a fic with steve going to therapy that’s 100% better than this bullshit we’re being served (and at the time i wrote the fic, i had never been to therapy, only counselling, which is very different). how come? why cant they, with their budget and their resources, their ability to conduct extensive research and even hire consultants, not do a better job with this part of the show? disappointing. truly.
maybe i don’t know exactly what’s going on, plotwise, or whatever, but like, if i dont like what i’m seeing, why would i invest more time to find out more about the show? the mcu has been steadily declining since 2016, lets be real. civil war, infinity war, endgame... this was all an absolute shitshow. fatws can only do so much with the canon they are being given to work with, without outright retconning everything, but even so... it’s weak. i always thought the writers wouldnt be able to write anything thats half as good as the stuff fans come up with and... i think i was right.
thanks for the question.

Wallpapers (Shinso x Reader)
a/n: it has been a hot minute since i last drabbled about my purple boy. with that here is some fluff :’) god shinso is like a breath of fresh air from all the heavy fics im making XD
PROMPT: Shinso likes stealing your phone to change your wallpaper into something random. Using that opportunity, you try to tell your feelings via wallpaper.
Warning: Fluff, Mediocre work :3 huhu gomen
Masterlist for all my fics :) here
Tumblr media
Crushes.
They can either be a blessing or a curse.
One would consider it a blessing if the person reciprocates the feeling. Or, it can be put into good use. Say, as an inspiration for an exam or motivation to move forward. It can be considered a curse if they are dense, ignorant, or just so happened to be named ‘Hitoshi Shinso’.
Your feelings for Shinso was no doubt a slap to the face. It took a damn while before he finally lowered his walls and saw you as a friend. From the sports festival to the joint training session, it was all kept at bay. The sensation of butterflies fluttering in your tummy when he mentions your last name. The giddiness you feel when he drags the chair beside you and greets you a good morning. Well, basically anything he does just brightens your day.
Once he was finally comfortable, you saw just how much of a tease he was.
There was never a day when you would roll your eyes at his antics. If you would not disrupt the classroom’s peace by yelling his name, 2-A would immediately think something’s wrong or that both of you had a fight.
One habit Shinso developed was taking your phone and changing your wallpaper. The possibilities were endless when it came to options. Sometimes you would catch him taking your phone and his dead panned lilac eyes would scan for the perfect picture to replace the current one. There were great ones but there were questionable ones as well. It was annoying at first but, you got used to it.
In all honesty, you were just using that as an excuse for him to bring his chair closer to your desk. It was the perfect reason to stare at him as he went through his options. You could tell when he’s done his usual task, his mouth would form into smirk and he’d put your phone on the desk face down.
“I already know you changed my wallpaper.” You’d comment. “Why bother putting it face down? And why don’t I get a chance to change yours?”
“To add to the surprise, (L/N).” That’s what he always said. “And, my phone is off limits.”
That little sentence sparked an idea.
You had always been planning on telling Shinso about your harbored feelings. It was supposed to happen on Valentine’s day. However, you realized that it would look scripted and that he’d probably receive a few other chocolates. He was a good looking guy and when people saw how he had transferred to the Hero Course, that was enough for girls and guys to turn their heads with curious sparkling eyes.
Today was the day. You had changed your wallpaper into a gif that wrote out ‘I like you’. That might be enough for him to look at you and finally let you take the weight off your chest. It was taking too long for the bell to ring. When it did, you took your phone from your pocket and set the plan to start.
Placing it on your desk, you stared as the purple haired boy dragged his chair to sit closer to you. His tired eyes were accompanied by a lazy smile. His hand reaching out to grab your phone. Rolling your eyes, you let him be as you grabbed a book from your bag.
Unlocking your phone, his eyebrows jumped when he saw the wallpaper. You were still busy reading but that alone made his heart skip a beat. Blinking to himself, he thought that it was probably a prank and that his own feelings were not reciprocated. Probably.
Brushing the thought aside, he looked up a picture that would sum up his response. Once he was able to choose, he set it as your wallpaper. You were still busy reading your book. Not wanting to disturb you anymore, he stood up and walked towards Deku and his friends.
Not expecting his reaction, you waited till his butt was rested on the desk and his back facing you. Sure that he was engrossed in their topic, you took your phone and unlocked it. Your shoulders slumped when you saw the change of wallpaper.
It was a picture of All Might. With the caption saying 'Who doesn't like me?'.
“Failed attempt?” Denki teased as he sat on your desk.
“Shut it.” You pouted and pocketed your phone. “I thought the message was clear.”
“Or maybe he thought it was a joke? You know how his brain works. Probably thought it was some kind of plot for him to stop bugging you and your phone.”
“Ah shit.” Denki was right. “What can I do then? If random wallpapers won’t work, what will?”
“Do you guys have any pictures together?”
“Yeah. One.”
“Use that.” Your pikachu friend patted your shoulder and left you alone with your thoughts. Just in time for the bell to ring.
While waiting for the teacher, you scrolled down your gallery till you stopped at that one photo you had with Shinso. Hoping that it would work, you set it as your wallpaper and prayed for the best.
It had already been a few days and Shinso still wasn’t able to get that cursed image off his head. It was somehow fair that you would do that to bug him but it still stung nonetheless. Somehow he had developed the fear of taking your phone. He would capture you placing it on your desk, free for him to grab and yet he chose not to.
Today was now friday and the two of you had planned to go to a nearby cat cafe. Shinso walked by your side with your bag in his hand as well. Your mind wondered why he chose not to touch your phone, just when you saw the need for him to. Upon seeing the signage, you were relieved. The tension was a little drowning especially since it had been a silent walk from school.
Now that the cats were nuzzling on you, your eyes landed on Shinso. A black and white cat sleeping on his lap. A miniscule smile rested on his lips. Your heart ached and all you wanted to do was replace the cat. Damn. You were jealous of a cat. The sigh you let out was a little too loud.
His attention was now on you. Maybe he should just tell you his feelings now that you were alone with him. It had always made him wonder. He was always used to starting conversations, but when he realized he had developed feelings for you, he just froze and his mind would malfunction.
“Hey, Shinso…”
“What?”
Taking your phone out, you placed it in front of him. Not sure what you meant, he took the device and began to fidget with it.
“You, uh, you haven’t been changing my wallpaper these days.” Your cheeks burned at the thought of him finally seeing your wallpaper.
"Realized I was invading your personal space." He replied. Eyes lowering while his free hand caressed the napping. His heart beat ramming in his chest. Might as well say it now. If the Dekusquad told him he was blind of your affection then perhaps they were right.
"I miss you changing my wallpapers…" That was probably enough to let him unlock your phone.
Judging that it wasn't the best time to go all mushy, he nodded his head and scooted closer to you. Careful to not disturb the sleeping cat. When he was beside you, only mere inches apart, he unlocked the device. His breath hitched when he saw the picture.
“Is this a joke?” He now turned to face you. Shinso just couldn’t take it if you had wanted him to change the picture you two had together. “Look, if you wanted me to stop changing it you could just tell me rather than do this.”
Staring blindly into space, you internalized how blind he was.
“Hitoshi.” Your voice was a little sterner now. Yet, it was music to his ears. This would have to be the first time you called him by his first name. Looking down at the cats cuddling with you, a small pout formed on your mouth. “Do you not understand the messages I’m sending you? The gif from a few days ago? How my wallpaper is the only picture I have of us?”
“Shit.” Chuckling at his stupidity, he facepalmed himself. “I guess I let overthinking win this time.”
Stretching his arm, he gently brushed your cheek with his index knuckle. The reddish blush on your face gave him the needed confident boost. When his eyes met yours, he took his phone from his pocket and handed it to you.
“Change my wallpaper.”
A small smile began to form on the face. If this was what you think it was then it was all worth it. Frowning at the sight of his wallpaper, you threw the phone at his chest. Being met with a Beadpool wallpaper that said ‘Ligma’ was not what you expected.
But, the laughter that he gave you made you think otherwise. Seeing how his arms began to snake around you into a hug, you leaned on to the crook of his neck. His embrace was warm and comfortable, everything you had imagined it would be. His hand found its way to the back of your head. Feeling him softly petting you caused the butterflies to rampage.
“But seriously though? Ligma?”
“Could not waste an opportunity, (Y/N).” Gently pushing you away, just enough for him to look at you, he gave your cheek a quick kiss. The purple orbs you adored gleamed with excitement and playfulness at the reciprocation of his feelings. “But, feel free to check my gallery if you want.”
Handing you his phone back, you opened the gallery and giggled. Despite all the memes and cat photos, a few stolen pictures of you were scattered across the app. Sneaky bastard. No wonder he preferred not to let you hold his phone.
“Want to commemorate this day and take our second picture together?” He offered. Pulling you back to lean on him.
“Wouldn’t want it any other way~”

Stranger: Even if it’s the bare minimum
You: thanks im fine i just feel so confused
Stranger: I am pretty sure that someday something will come that will make it worth it
You: im doing well im being nice to my loved ones im going to work im having fun im just existentially terrified
Stranger: For everyone
You: yeh i think so too
You: i kno u dont kno me but im rooting for you
Stranger: How old are you ? Sorry if that’s too personal
You: im 20
Stranger: I’m rooting for you too!!! 😄
You: thx
Stranger: The confusion starts at the twenty’s
Stranger: I’m 25 and haven’t figured it out
You: lol ive been confused 4 so long tho
You: i think being confused is the whole point
Stranger: Maybe the meaning of life isn’t to find it purpose
Stranger: But to live and live while it lasts
Stranger: Love*
You: like its all just fluctuations of energy and the universe is just reminding itself that it exists bc being is the point of being like a perfect circle of belief and truth
You: yes i think so too
You: but it leads me to chasing empty bliss
Stranger: You should write a book about it
Stranger: Or poems
You: i want to feel more purpose but i dont know how im scared of nit finding peace and my vulnerability being exploited
You: i write poetry but i feel as tho i havent developed craft
Stranger: You must be brave to feel extraordinary :)
You: how do u express urself?
You: :)
Stranger: I dance
You: <3
Stranger: I’m a dancer
You: thats so wonderful
Stranger: Not good with words
You: does it make you feel free? i can only dance with the lights off
Stranger: Sometimes I turn the music up and close my eyes and just dance whatever I feel inside
You: that sounds nice
You: what kind of music do u like?
Stranger: And most of the times it feels like breaking my own heart
You: :(
Stranger: But it flies itself back together right after
You: in a good or bad way?
Stranger: Glues*
You: sometimes i wish i cud crack open my heart and show people
Stranger: I feel like a slightly cracked heart must fall apart to be build up again
You: i always paraphrase kafka when he said the reason for everything he did is to try and express the unexpressable
Stranger: People tend to ignore small cracks
Stranger: But take it serious when it’s all in pieces
You: :( i wish we cud all b more gentle with each other
Stranger: Same
You: i wish i had more energy to see everyones breaking hearts and fill up the cracks with my own love
Stranger: And I wish we would only fall in love with people who fall for us back
You: are you in love with him?
Stranger: I am
You: i dont kno whether ive ever been in love love what is it like?
Stranger: I’ve been in love once before
Stranger: And I swore I’d never open myself up for anyone
Stranger: And my best friend convinced me to go on this date with this guy
Stranger: And when he kissed me I just knew
You: that must hav been terrifying
Stranger: Took me 5years tho
Stranger: To fall like this again
Stranger: It was
Stranger: In it’s ironic way
Stranger: And it still is
You: i can tget close to anyone like that bc ive got all this stuff i cant let anyone see its brave for you to let someone in even if it hurts
Stranger: You know what?
Stranger: It wasn’t a decision I made !!
You: huh i never thought of it that way
You: maybe it was god
Stranger: Im fact the decision I took was to not let him in before we went on that date
Stranger: It wasn’t something I was in control of
Stranger: And it took him 5 hours to kiss me 😄
Stranger: And when he did time stopped
Stranger: And so did my senses except for feeling
You: what makes him so special? is it just the way he makes you feel or is there a big reason in your mind?
Stranger: It’s …
Stranger: How can I say this
Stranger: He was a surprise
Stranger: I didn’t expect him to be that good
You: did you feel like you had met before?
Stranger: I thought he’d be just another mediocre guy
You: so he suprised you
Stranger: But when I saw his smile and eyes I just knew I was screwed
Stranger: Yeah
Stranger: Feel good to finally talk about all this haha
You: ive never felt that way about way about anyone it sounds so confusing
You: is he kind?
Stranger: He was
You: is he not anymore?
Stranger: Sadly no
You: :(
Stranger: He decided to take a step back from me
You: what did he do to make you feel this way (if you dont mind me askin)
You: oh
Stranger: I remember when he called me to tell me he’s not ready for a relationship
You: what are you going to do? i cant imagine never seeing anyone i care about like that again
Stranger: Last time I saw him was three weeks ago
Stranger: And last time I heard from him was one week bwfore
You: did you know him long before ?
Stranger: Three months
Stranger: Not that long
Stranger: But I knew what he would mean to me when I first saw him
Stranger: So it felt like a smaller eternity
You: that sound so difficult
Stranger: I miss him terribly:)
You: i cant imagine feeling that way it wud really scare me everyone i talk to ive known for like 8years i cant give so much of myself to someone new
Stranger: You don’t have to give yourself to someone all at once
Stranger: Be protective of your energy
Stranger: And never trust the other person to not hurt you!
Stranger: But trust yourself and how you will react to it
Stranger: Trust that’s you would be strong enough to handle it
You: do you think he saw the real you? its so weird to think that everyone percieves you differently and out of your own control i worry that i focus too much on an idea of a person that i cud be
Stranger: Yea and no
Stranger: What I showed him was the real me but I also know that I didn’t show him everything that I am
Stranger: I feel your fear ! You got to know who you are as a person first
Stranger: And you got to be authentic with the people around you
You: i think it takes so long to show a clear picture of urself and its always moving and running away from the person you were when you last talked to that person who you want to really see you
Stranger: Exactly!
Stranger: That’s probably the most genuine talk I ever had
You: im so tired of trying to be a person i wish i cud just melt into everyone around me but theres so much i dislike about those around me and its not possible anyway. its just hard knowing the reason for everything is human connection and not living in a way that respects that truth
Stranger: Thank you
You: thank you too
You: i really appreciate your sharing its so scar to be honest out loud
You: *scary
Stranger: True
Stranger: I guess being anonymous makes it easier
You: yeh i just i was going to see a friend today who i feel like understands me but i couldnt in the end and i needed to express a part of myself u kno even tho im talking to other people who know me and care its not the same
You: i hope ou feel better soon regardless of what he chooses for himself
Stranger: I know exactly what you mean
Stranger: After all I have to choose myself over him as well :)
Stranger: Sometimes love isn’t enough
Stranger: Who am I fooling… most of the times it’s not enough
You: i have so many kind lovely friends and family who is trying but i cant let go of this heavy thing its like theres always some invisible chain wrapped around me
You: yeh :(
You: why cant we all help each other more
Stranger: Not many people are spiritual enough to say love is enough and all that matters f*ck the rest
You: i know so many people in pain and im too tired to be there all the time
You: its easy for me to say love is enough when i dont hav so many real problems that cant b solved with love alone
Stranger: I really pray for you to break out of those chains
Stranger: You seem like an amazing loving and caring person
Stranger: You deserve happiness
You: thanks i dont kno whether my hope has any power to reach you but i really hope you get some relief from your pain too
You: you too
You: i think we all do but i cant know that im so lucky to not meet people who are cruel enough to take that belief away from me
Stranger: And if you ever do meet people like that do me the favor of removing them immediately
Stranger: If it costs you your peace it’s too exoenz
You: i guess but i always think what happens to them when im gone?
Stranger: Expensive *
You: where do they go?
Stranger: ALWAYS !
You: what do they feel?
Stranger: That’s none of your business
Stranger: Let them find their own way
You: yeh i think we all need to respect ourselves to let go of toxicity
Stranger: You don’t have to guide them
You: i just feel like i want to care more i want to love more but i dont and that makes me feel small and selfish i wish we cud all connect our love its so scary not being able to reach each other
You: im scared to change and become better it sounds so hard i feel so selfish
Stranger: You’re not selfish if it means protecting your energy
Stranger: But don’t stand in your own way
Stranger: Be brave
Stranger: Can’t stress that enough
You: thanks i think i do need to be braver i try and look more people in the eye but maybe i need to be brave against myself more than against other people
Stranger: Have you ever watched greys anatomy?
You: since they arent in my control
You: no but all my friends love it
You: its on my list loll
Stranger: So Meredith grey said something like :
Stranger: Maybe she wasn’t opening up to people not because she was scared of the love she would receive
Stranger: But scared of what would happen when they took this live away from her someday
Stranger: Once you get a taste of love
Stranger: It’s like a drug
Stranger: Love*
You: like you and him, i find it hard to accept it when people choose me over someone else so i push them away to other people and i get upset that they replaced me
You: love is so scary
You: its too much
Stranger: Me and him …
Stranger: I feel like this story is not over yet
Stranger: :)
Stranger: And that calms me
You: i think if you have so much love inside you, u will succeed and find yourself in a good place if you focus on that love
Stranger: Yeah
Stranger: I literally believe in love because of the way I know I am capable to love
You: sometimes i worry that im not capable of love like that like i have something inside me that puts people off even though on a surface level i seem nice and passionate or sweet or whatever
You: like i worry im just playing a part and soon ill get tired of acting and i wont be what people need anymore
Stranger: Don’t worry too much
Stranger: Just truly be yourself
You: thanks i will try too
You: its so weird loving life this much and still not being happy
Stranger: Damn
You: like im so happy but its never enough
You: its not the right kind of joy it wont fit
Stranger: And this whole convo started with this simple question
You: loll
Stranger: What makes you happy
Stranger: Lol
Stranger: You know what I just realized
You: wot :0
Stranger: My answer was wrong in so many ways
Stranger: Your happiness shouldn’t be depending on someone else
Stranger: Cause you can’t control other peoples behavior
You: thats so real
You: its so scary tho since you cant b alone but you cant rely purely on others
Stranger: Your happiness should only be in your hands
Stranger: So controversial
Stranger: It’s a daily risk lol
You: like other people are all that matters but to them you are the other people so we all need to be kind to ourselves to be kind to each toher but we're all to hurt and scared to do all of it in the right way
You: we're all walking around with a piece of the happy puzzle and we have'nt figured out how to put it together
Stranger: sometimes we forget that all people are vulnerable and maybe hurting too
Stranger: When someone hurts your feelings you tend to forget you might have hurt theirs too
You: i always remember but i dont always respect it and that makes me dislike the kind of person i let myself be
Stranger: You will learn to
You: i hope so
You: i think thats the point
Stranger: Don’t pressure yourself
You: like we live and we all learn the same lesson
You: but it seems like its always repeating
You: like why haven't we learned it yet
You: like we're all one soul
You: and we can't reach the end of this problem or is the point how good we feel at points of it? i cant just chase joy if its fleeting iworry that even love is fleeting
You: idk i know we only hav the present
You: like all the advice uve given me i trust it
You: i just freak out thinking of the big picture
Stranger: Relax 😄
Stranger: It’s not all that serious
Stranger: Don’t forget to live along the way
Stranger: Love was never meant to be safe or measured!
Stranger: You got to be brave and love irritationally
You: i think that that is fair i just i go long stretches living and then i remember the whole question of why and how shud i live and i get all tangled up again
Stranger: And instead of being scared, trusting yourself with it
You: i think i need to trust more and i think faith is trust
Stranger: Grow and learn to trust yourself
You: i want to have more faith in myself in others in the future i just worry the way i acheive this will only be a bandaid i want more than blind faith i want to see the world and see it as it is and still feel love and joy and trust the universe and myself to experience it correctly and even let go of the whole concept of correct.
Stranger: I also think I might fall asleep soon lol
You: thanks for listening i think i will too lol good luck i wish you all the best <£
You: <3
Stranger: That’s what I wish you too
Stranger: From the bottom of my heart
You: :-)
Stranger: Take care strangee
You: u 2 :-)
Stranger: Stranger*

Hi! Once you get this you have to say five things you like about yourself, publicly, then send this to ten of your favorite followers (nonnegotiable) SPREAD POSITIVITY! 💌😘
this is nice and all but im you’d be mistaken if you thought me bold enough to send this along to others. im not gonna risk bothering a bunch of people i rarely ever interact with, sorry!
with that said, im always trying to incorporate more positivity into my life so lets fucking do this! (also i have a tendency to ramble way too much so this’ll be miles long probably. sorry.)
1. the fact that i always try my best.
(do i always succeed? fuck no. but have i always been noted for embarrassingly high levels of enthusiasm and effort? yes. i used to get called a tryhard as an insult but honestly, i never took it that way. i really do think its my best trait. like, i DO try hard. i try really hard! like, what about it?)
2. writing skills!
(...i think i should thank my autism + my younger self’s obsessive special interest in reading everything i could get my hands on (everything - books, signs, nutritional info, pamphlets n shit,,,) for that particular skill of mine. its like the one and only thing i consider myself actually good at - and not just passionate about but mediocre at, like most other things - u kno?)
3. my face.
(took a damn long time to come to peace with it but im there. im not gorgeous, im not hideous. im neutral - a face u wouldnt pick out of a lineup - but im honestly happy to look in the mirror and see what i see, and thats enough for me.)
4. my organisational skills!
(while my motivation is fuelled from crappy stuff like rampant anxiety and perfectionism, it at least makes me a pretty good student. i get things done on time and always do things to the very best of my ability, even if its unnecessary.)
5. okay, im running out of things i like about myself. okay huh. okay. well, im hairy? i used to be wildly insecure about it but now i think its pretty cool. that makes number 5, i guess.

QUESTION OF THE DAY #6: Send me your most unpopular theatre opinion. Something that might make someone want to fight you. Please don’t be offensive (racist, misogynistic, etc.), but other than that…go as hard as you want. Spill all the tea.
MY ANSWERS: 1) The Pretty Woman score fucking slaps idek, 2) Come From Away (or even Bandstand...) should’ve won the 2017 Best Musical Tony, 3) I prefer the West End Heathers cast album to Off Broadway, 4) Shows shouldn’t sweep the Tonys just because they’re Best Musical worthy...shows that aren’t too critically acclaimed but have really impressive elements should get recognition too.
SUMMARY: Out of 37 responses: 5 were about Dear Evan Hansen, 3 were about Hamilton specifically, 2 were about: Rent, ALW, Wicked, In The Heights, Be More Chill, etc. etc....if your favorite musical is one of these and you get easily offended i wouldn’t read these.
NOTE: I agree with some of these, I highly disagree with others. I do not endorse any of the things that were said, I am simply sharing them with you all. These were what was sent to me. I’m going to number them so if you want to complain about or agree with one you can send me an ask with the number you’re referring to. 
1. howmuchchildrens said: unpopular opinion: i really liked the 2012 version of les mis. i liked russel crowe as javert.
2. Anonymous said: Unpopular opinion: Bootlegs harm to local theatre communities, though I do not believe anyone intends for that to be the case. While it's possible to bootleg responsibly (and I might even say it's beneficial to do so), those who may not know the intricacies of theatrical copyright law or who haven't heard the horror stories from a theatre that's been hit with legal action DUE to a bootleg may record or watch a show irresponsibly, which can greatly harm other routes of theatre accessibility.
3. Anonymous said: Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals are mostly terrible. He only got and stayed popular because a lot of other musical creators and taste makers died in the AIDS epidemic
4. Anonymous said: Almost all musicals using the songs of one artist are cash grabs with no plot or point.
5. Anonymous said: If your musical only has 1 woman OR the women only get sad/romantic songs you need to do something else with your life.
6. nerdshrimp said: Unpopular opinion: Next To Normal does a better job of portraying the effects of mental illness than Dear Evan Hansen does. N2N also doesn't romanticise mental illness & excuse shitty behavior like DEH tries to
7. Anonymous said: Hadestown is a lesser show on Broadway. I fell in love with the live album, and I was so excited for it to come to Broadway. I was so disappointed to see the changes they made. Orpheus and Eurydice's relationship is less interesting and more generic. The changed lyrics are often sloppy and not as good as the original. They fucking wrecked Epic III. Also, no hate to R/ee/ve, but he's just not a good enough singer to convince me that he could soften the heart of Hades. His high notes are awful.

10. Anonymous said: unpopular theatre opinion(s): Dear Evan Hansen is Very Bad for its handling of mental illness, Hamilton is overrated and praised too much, and high school/college musical theatre programs can be just as good as Broadway. (also, musical movies would be better if they hired broadway actors, but that's not an unpopular opinion)

15. Anonymous said: unpopular opinion? wicked is the epitome of white feminism. it's preached as super great for representation but we literally got the first black glinda in 2019?!?!?!? and before that woc could only play elphaba who's villainized and deemed evil by the whole city
16. Anonymous said: Not so much an opinion as a reaction, but of all Lin's works (ITH, Bring it On, 21 Chump Street, Hamilton), 21 Chump Street gets the biggest emotional reaction of all the cast recordings. The second Justin is like "I don't want your money" (And then later on with the "...what the heck did you.... dooooo", I am a complete goner. Worse than Abuela Claudia and Philip Hamilton's deaths combined

21. Anonymous said: In the Heights.... Overrated.
22. Anonymous said: I do not know if this is an unpopular opinion or not, but here is my opinion: Musicals that are entirely or nearly entirely songs (Hamilton, Hadestown, In The Heights, etc) are the most valid bc I can understand the plot without using wikipedia (I'm looking at you, Jagged Little Pill, I love you but what is your plot????)
23. Anonymous said: I'd rather have a bad film adaptation than no film adaptation
24. Anonymous said: Rent sucks and while it was a stepping stone for more ""controversial"" topics to appear on Broadway it's actually biphobic and features several generally terrible people doing generally terrible things and doesn't actually address the real crisis at all; it's all performative wokeness. The only real good it did was cast a bunch of "nobodies" for the time and make theater somewhat more accessible.
25. stardust-and-seas said: Dear Evan Hansen doesn't properly address mental health despite being about mental health and resolves nobodies character arcs satisfactorily. It's another show that reaches its hands around the throats of marginalized teenagers saying "look I'm relatable!!" The songs taken out of context are significantly more powerful than when placed in the context of the show, which gives us exactly zero evidence of Evan's work to improve and also never resolves Evan's u healthy goals in the first place.
26. stardust-and-seas said: Be More Chill is a raging dumpster fire and the only decent song from it, Michael in the Bathroom, reads as a whiny rich white boy whose potential social anxiety and depression is left ambiguous, which is exactly what it is. When taken out of context it better exemplifies the othering that happens to marginalized groups but lets be real here: bullying/cliques don't happen to "just anyone"; it's the marginalized groups that are othered and abandoned for not being "normal"
27. stardust-and-seas said: There's a difference between shows that don't take themselves seriously because they're meant to be fun and light and shows that pretend not to take themselves too seriously but want to be taken seriously by the audience and the latter always ends up mediocre at best
28. redueka said: i think that dear evan hansen handles every issue it presents badly. i also think that beetlejuice was badly directed

33. Anonymous said: mari.ah r.ose fa.ith is not a good regina george. everything she says sounds monotonous and while i understand she's trying to play off the ""whatever"" teenager (she does this a lot with her teenage characters), 90% of the time she sounds and looks like she doesn't want to be there; her voice is great but most songs feel unnatural and forced and she changes them too much. she's just not selling regina to me as a believable character (this is all from a technical point of view)
