do you think the mess in oshiros hotel is meant to signify that hes been letting his problems pile up until its become too overwhelming to handle.
im thinking about the fact that he's definitely the one who's been making the mess but he doesn't even realize it. he ignores the clutter until it becomes too hard to ignore you know? like when it starts actively blocking the way to the presidential suite. he insists that he and his staff will handle it and that madeline shouldn't clean up his own mess, but he still doesn't do anything about it. does he know that the staff is gone? that it's just him there?
mr oshiro is so hell bent on impressing madeline so that she'll stay in his hotel. he's so in denial of everything. he doesn't even realize he's dead, he still thinks his hotel never got shut down. I think his insistence on her staying is bc he really wants to believe that the hotel is open, and a costumer would affirm that belief. it could also maybe be a mixture of loneliness too. (also, him treating her as a costumer even after she says no is absolutely him being in denial. that man is very unhealthily attached to this hotel,)
and even though it was nice of madeline to clean it up, there's still parts of the hotel she can't fix. the plumbing. the windows. the, hole in the ceiling (oops.) she's not qualified to help him, and that's why I think the chapter ends on a bit of a sour note. madeline is of course not a bad person for wanting to help, the point is that she can't. it is unfortunate but true
anyways mr oshiro is a very good character i like him a regular amount. im normal about that old man

Ngl youtube videos suddenly got me slowly turning into a Justin Russo hater.
#like mainly later seasons him#early seasons him is fine#but like i guess plot wise you could argue he becomes more iffy because you know the competition will be soon#and justin does want to become the family wizard#as for some reason this show still never fully tackled the fucked up shit of the idea that wizard siblings have to grow up studying magic#only for one or two or whatever number siblings to lose it to one sibling in a competition#like stevie was the closest we got to that#but like it still dont make it less bad with how justin was#like the worst example i can name is him literally refusing to save alex whose his sister btw and shes always dropped shit to save him#because he wants to project onto her that she purposely fucked up his chances to get back into the competition via#pushing the students to take the test only for them to be failed because bad guy being bad guy in reality#and basically blames her for the failure and such as a result and acts like its all an act when she is mad on the students behalf and shit#and his students have to drag him kicking and screaming just to save her from the bad guy's shit#and there's also the competition itself where harper and zeke get grabbed by a creature during it#but alex has to convince her brothers to save the two and thats just cold already on justins end with zeke#but cause they took too long they all lose the competition and magic#and both brothers especially justin proceed to treat alex like shit even during work hours meaning#fucking over family business just to get at alex#and when the dad ultimately almost sells the place justin STILL blames alex#like she was the only one working fully max was being max and justin was being a little bitch to her#aka the infamous refusing to make her orders only max's and when he does he throws the sandwich at her#and cause she was holding drinks at the time and didnt see it coming the drinks went on a customer#and also throwing table trash into her already full bin shes carrying around while cleaning tables#and therefore messing it up for her like#and alex's logo...well from sounds of shit thats just justin again being a hateful bitch to his sister with zero consquiences#even one commenter pointing how he sadistically smiled while telling her all her friends hate her#like dear god if the show was doing this to make everyone root for alex its working i hate later season justin#gonna be interesting if hes matured or not as an adult

My workplace isn't doing a good job convincing me not to jump ship and look for a different job after coming back from vacation. Especially today.
So our new manager started working with us (the deli department) this week. She doesn't have any experience in deli as her previous departments were produce and bakery. Not a big deal. She's learning the ropes, I get that. But that should mean she knows the basics of cleaning a department, such as sweeping, mopping, and washing dishes.
So tell me why she did fuck all to help me close deli when she sent my coworker home early??!!
My coworker cut herself and is on blood thinners. This meant the cut wouldn't stop bleeding even after treatment. And since that's a biohazard she couldn't go back to work. Again, my new manager made the right call. I'm not faulting her for that.
But when I'm the only one in this goddamn department who knows how to clean the goddamn slicers (besides my coworker closing cafe, but he was busy with his part of the department), why the FUCK wouldn't you help me out so I dont potentially lose my shit??! Especially when we were getting slammed with customers??? So I'm forced to help them instead of cleaning the turkey slicer??!!
She even said the best she could do would keep on counter when I asked her if she knew how to clean a slicer. SO WHY DID SHE BASICALLY STAND THERE DOING NOTHING WHILE I WAS STRUGGLING WITH CUSTOMERS??!!! EVEN IF SHE DIDNT KNOW WHERE EVERYTHING WAS, I COULD STILL DIRECT HER WHERE IT ALL WAS ITS NOT LIKE I DONT ALREADY DO THAT WITH MY OTHER COWORKER HALF OF THE TIME
Even if she couldn't handle counter, she could've at least swept the department and maybe even mopped. But instead she was focused on getting shit off the main floor since it was being waxed tonight. Which I even brought up when she started dragging stuff behind the counter, but she just brushed it off.
And before anyone comes at me with "well managers have their own stuff to do it makes sense that she couldn't help you," my previous manager wouldn't have left me struggling like this. She would've jumped on helping me close deli by either cleaning the slicer, cleaning dishes, or jumping on counter after sending my coworker home. Even if she was busy with her own manager stuff, she would've made sure I was caught up first before going off to do something else.
It was a miracle we even got out at a decent time, mostly because the cafe closer was a champ and helped me out instead of punching out once he was done. But fucking Christ we had to cut so many goddamn corners. I'm sure I'll get bitched at tomorrow by morning crew. I don't give a fuck at this point.
For real, I was seriously considering putting in my 2 weeks right then and there. Because fuck you you don't get to act friendly with me and not help me out at least a little bit, especially when I was legit struggling and almost had a mental breakdown. I wanted to give this manager a chance, I really did. But if this becomes a pattern, I'm fucking jumping ship I don't care anymore.

YESS loak who lives in his brothers shadows falling for the girl that was BETHROTHED to his brother (who has a nasty attitude and isnt well liked within her inner circles but her people loves her bc shes nice to them only in her own ways lol) is a level of angst that is so hot
like loaks reaction when neteyam confided in him telling him hes gonna run away with his maid/childhood friend and loak is like ???? youre going to run away from your duties? and neteyam is just like yeah i love my beloved more than aristocracy lifestyle
few months have passed since then and now jake is stressed out from all of this - his oldest son is missing and no one knows where he or his maid is (except loak who he sends letters too from time to time)
and like u said he NEVER thought he would be the next king he had his whole life plan out, train the knights for his brothers army, date some girl who isnt ultra famous and wealthy but in the middle and settle down and pop out a few kids and now his whole world is turned around because he now has to fill in his brothers (complicated) shoes and hes realizing how intense this was all for neteyam and hes has to learn it pronto
but omg poor princess??? the man she was supposed to marry since she was practically born, has been told from a young age she was going to be prettiest wife to neteyam and then he goes into hiding for some maid ??? that would break her ego so bad, and now she has to marry the brother who all he does is play knight oh its so bad for her
but as they hang out they slowly (so slow neteyam would have his first baby by then lmfao) they slowly begin to become friendish - princess finds it hard because her attitude is the worse and she cant accept the fact that she likes someone who all he wanted to be was a trainor for the knights
and loak is trying to ignore that she was originally supposed to marry neteyam, he knows neteyam never liked her but it still fucks with him sometimes but he gets over it eventually
AND OMLLL princess!reader who goes to visit loak on the training grounds and shes definitely does not fit in bc shes hoping her custom made dress doesnt have mud on it as she tiptoes bc god its gross here and she asks the knights where loak and they guide her to where she is
cue her knocking on the door and opening it to see loaks back and oh my god his back is so hot its so broad and waist is so tiny and hes sweating n loak just turns around like what?? meanwhile her face is super red bc she didnt know he was that built underneath that hes leaner than the knights he trains who are meatheads but he was still so defined and the mixed metal necklaces he wore just compliments him so well and now shes needs to find her maid and ask her what are these feelings
— 🤍
Catch up on the story:
Part One | Part Two | Part Three | Part Four | Part Five
Extra: One | Two
CW:// Slight Mention of Pregnancy
Right?! She has such a "don't fuck with me, I'm not the one," attitude. She needs to be serious all the time, needs to always have her head on straight and can't make stupid mistakes because if she does, she loses all credibility. Sure, she's kind and looks out for her people, helping them and protecting them however she can, and her people see that and appreciate that - but she doesn't want to act like the emotionless bitch that she has to be. She wants to be happy, free to genuinely smile and feel what she feels, but she knows that if she shows even the hint of too much emotion, too much weakness, she's just going to be ripped apart.
And Lo'ak can understand that. He knows what it's like to not be able to be who you want to be. His whole life he's been compared to his perfect brother: Neteyam who is better at facilitating communication between neighboring kingdoms, Neteyam who speaks clearly and takes responsibility humbly when needed, Neteyam who's never had to be told not to slouch during court. He's been cast aside as the 'spare', but not invisible enough to not need to be on his game.
He can't joke around like he wants to, at least not without Jake and Neytiri hissing at him to behave. He can't go exploring, can't go out and see what far away lands have to offer because "your duties are here, son". So he found something that he enjoys, a way to get out all his pent up energy and aggression, and he's good at it. So good. He has a true gift for training the knights, getting them ready to battle and protect the kingdom, but even that's sometimes overshadowed by his brother - having to train Neteyam to fight, train Neteyam to be the best, even better than himself - to be worthy of the crown he would get one day.
Would have gotten. Because Neteyam is gone now. And somehow the responsibility, and all the duties that come with it, have fallen on Lo'ak's shoulders and now more than ever he feels he can't be himself.
He would understand how Princess feels . . . if he could get over his own bitterness.
Jake is freaking out - he's sent out a search party on multiple occasions looking for Neteyam and his runaway maid, but they can't find them. Neteyam is smart, building their cottage outside of the kingdom's boundaries, and the only person who knows the location of it is Lo'ak. Lo'ak is bitter, of course, and angry with his brother for what he's done to him. But he would never give up their location. He wants his brother to be happy, so he keeps the information to himself.
He appreciates the letters he gets from Neteyam though. They make him smile, to see that his brother is finally living the life he's always wanted: something calm and peaceful with the woman he loves. He's super giddy when he gets the letter that Neteyam and his wife are expecting their first child. He's going to be an uncle! And the news makes him so happy that he just can't help but smile all day, sneaking off to tell Kiri and Tuk the good news too, and Princess is just looking at him like he's crazy - "Why is he so smiley all of a sudden? What could he possibly be happy about?"
Their relationship is rocky at the start . . . and in the middle. At first, when she was still Neteyam's betrothed, Lo'ak thought she was a spoiled brat. And now that they're supposed to be together, they can't stand each other even more. But the more time they spend together, the more they can't help how their eyes start to trace the other's movements. Their ears seem to always latch on to the sound of the other's voice. Random thoughts popping into their heads about the other (how nice they look in their formal attire, how their eyes glimmer in the glow under the chandeliers) before they have to physically shake those thoughts out, annoyed that they were even there to begin with.
Lo'ak actually growls to himself when the thought of Princess, round and beautiful with their own future child, her fancy custom-made gown falling perfectly over the bump, pops into his head after he finds out Neteyam's expecting.
He's shaking a similar thought out of his head as he's undressing after a rather intense training session. The new knights he's training are annoying, young men who think they're so great and are flooded with undeserved confidence and it just makes Lo'ak want to rip his hair out. But he heard a couple of them whispering about how beautiful Princess is, and how they'd give anything for a night with her and Lo'ak can't seem to justify the dark feeling swirling around in his chest when he hears it.
He thinks it's one of them who slams the door open, come to annoy him even more with stupid questions or overconfident remarks, but instead it's her. The woman he can't seem to get out of his head. She's panting, face flushed with exertion from trying to walk through the mud coated ground. The bottom of her dress is covered with dark brown, once shiny heels now sticky and sinking into the ground. She always looks so put together and clean, so the ruined look throws him off a bit and he can't help but think that she looks beautiful like this too - all flushed and hair out of place from where she tossed it over her shoulder carelessly in her frustration just to get it out of her face. She's scowling, mouth opened ready to give him a few choice words no doubt, but her words die in her mouth when she sees him: topless, corded muscles and strong back on display, all glistening and sweaty and fuck - now she feels like she's starting to sweat.
She's never seen a male like this before. Never seen so much skin. And he turns around when she enters, surprised and the question "what are you doing here?" falling from his lips, but she doesn't answer. Can do nothing more than gape at him like a fish because now his broad chest is on display too, tapering down into a narrow waist. All he's got on is a pair of tight black pants and boots, and her eyes can't help but linger on the slight bulge she can see from where they hug him between his legs.
She feels hot all over, a tight ball forming in her stomach the longer she looks at him and it's only when she feels a strange wetness pooling between her own thighs that she snaps out of her trance. She turns and leaves without a word, running to her bedroom and immediately calling for her maid. If she ever had a best friend, it would be her maid - the person who has been there as her helper ever since she was a little girl. Her helper, her protector, her guide.
Her maid's eyes widen as they take in the look of her Princess's state - dress ruined and covered in mud, face hot and red with embarrassment and something else she can't quite place.
"I don't know what I'm doing!" the Princess cries. And her maid is there for her, to clean her up and wrap her in soft blankets, ready to hear what her Princess has to tell and give her the best advice she can.

i cant believe im typing this i-
since its the tcg patch, heres this: scara teaching kabuki how to play tcg. Kabuki was honored bc usually scara only plays with wanderer (that brought the game to the house from the scholars in the academia) and anytime kabuki asked to join, scara would tell him to go away, that he doesnt know how to play and he will ruin the fun (even tho wanderer tells scara to zip it)
so when they start to play, scara will say the next few rounds will be for learning! He knows kabuki lacks alot of knowledge about humans, game logic included, so even after kabuki will catch the tcg rules, kinda, he could manipulate him.
Kabuki truly enjoys playing with his brother, even if he keeps losing, and he loves staring at the cards! Theyre so shiny and pretty! (Also wanderer made a custom mommy card in an extra art class he had, and since scara told kabuki he can have it, he should have KNOWN something is up. Red flag.)
Kabuki starts to learn, and scara explains the rules in a patient way that doesnt suit him at all. When kabuki wins, he let the pride get to his head (he made some wrong moves on purpose) and lets him relax. Then, he drops the next line:
"y'know, humans bet stuff when they play this game."
liar.
Kabuki doesnt understand gambling too well, but he believe his brother. He is quite concerned, and he tells scara he doesnt have any money. (Broke💀) scara tells him its fine, and betting isnt all about money. "For example," he says, "if i win, you stop running naked around the house, (He had enough, just like mommy) For, eh, week.." (he soften the deal)
"And if i win?"
"...you could share the milk time with me, and not have to wait for you and wanderers turn. For a week." (usually scara drinks alone)
Kabuki is excited. He plays, and he loses, and that puts a stop to mommys headaches... from him at least💀
He is ready to stop, he clearly lost, but scara keeps suggesting stuff he knows kabuki is interested in, and stuff kabuki can lose to him, before he says: "now.... if you lose, you give me 20% of your milk time with mommy." Kabuki is stunned! He tells scara thats not a good thing to bet on, because last time they somehow messed with their milk time, they got punished. But scara convince him with these words:
"If i lose, i give you mine."
Kabuki loses. And he loses again. And scara keeps making the milk time% higher and higher. And when his common sense finally sets and he wants to quit, he lost so much of his milk time and he wants to cry to mommy about it, (not snitch! Poor cutie kabuki just wants to cuddle with mommy and tell her he lost "fair and square" to scara.)
Then scara tells him - one more round. This time, he wont take his milk time, he just wants to keep kabuki from telling mommy. And if kabuki wins - he gets all his milk time back.
Of course, kabuki lost. And thats a good time to mention scara didnt explain ALL the rules to him.
Scara smirks, praising himself for this genius plan, while kabuki is sad and about to cry! Little did they both know, that when big bro wanderer came back home and saw scara and kabuki playing, he decided to spy on them and when the game was finished, he went to tell mommy.
Mommy is FURIOUS.
she already told them not to mess with the milk time, but the little stunt scara pulled truly crossed the line. While she is about to give scara the biggest punishment she can think of, AND taking his milk time, kabuki bursts into tears in the corner, begs for mercy from mommy, he truly believes hes as guilty as scara for gamblimg and falling for scaras tricks. Wanderer just rolls his eyes. Scara is now actually really really scared. Just an avarage day for them.
(Im so sorry its so long- i also never sent something to your blog before but i saw it for quite a while. Im sorry if theres any grammar errors english isnt my first language! And i hope you are okay with this stuff?)
such a cute scenario!!! 🫶
i can’t help but imagine scara having such a hard time holding back a smirk as he’s playing with kabuki.. his poker face gradually fading until he’s practically grinning at kabuki’s misery.
big bro wanderer being such a good spy for mommy, letting her know when her boys are up to no good! scara curses him for being a snitch while kabuki looks up to him for looking after them <3
wahhh kabukimono definitely would share at least half of the guilt with scara if he could. tcg match aside, if scara were to get in trouble, kabukimono would run up to mommy when she’s scolding him and tell her it’s his fault too! he should’ve told scara not to do it, or tried harder to stop him! kabuki’s puppy face has softened many punishments for scara…
(don’t worry it’s okay! i appreciate any length of asks sent to me :) thank you for seeing my blog for so long! no worries about your grammar, english isn’t my first language either!)

i think a lot of people are misunderstanding Eddie Munson
i've seen very stereotypical interpretations of his character - a metalhead, long hair, outspoken and loud. So its easy to assume he is this angry-at-the-world teenager.
But Eddie didn't actually insult people, he didnt express hate for people (the way Billy does). He expressed a frustration for the way society forces people to conform to ridiculous ideas and imaginary hierarchy, and how that can ruin and often contribute in the deaths of kids.
The idea that Chrissy Cunningham is the only popular kid he is nice to (because he has a crush on her) is false, because he wasn't really mean to anyone.
I've seen a lot of posts about how eddie "hates popular kids" which is not true at all. he simply expresses that he finds the popularity culture ridiculous and even when he was insulted he just like made a face and smiled, he didn't respond beyond that, and there was no anger and hatered in it. in the cafeteria he even smiled at the cheerleaders and made way for them, literally
Tumblr media
its really nice tbh how respectful he is even when he is publicly speaking against things. i havent really seen that much lately (online or in tv shows and movies). people always seem to attack other people, and its a given for outcasts to have a hate for popular kids.
eddie is just like "i dont hate you, i hate the things that divide us", which i completely agree with.
And when you consider all this - Eddie is so different from Billy. People place them in the same category but they are so different in character. the only thing they have in common is the music they listen to and maybe a bit of their fashion style (but not really because Eddie seems to love layering clothes and customizing them with pins and art of his favorite bands, while Billy dresses in more revealing, contemporary sexy style that generally appeals to all, with a little bit of metal vibes thrown in, for a sprinkle of danger)
billy is filled with hate and anger that he needs to express. he doesnt care who or what he projects that onto. (i could say a lot more about billy but this is not a post for him so i won't)
eddie on the other hand is not filled with anger. he seems like a person who is frustrated with society but he doesnt hate anyone. i dont see him even as a person who wants to fight. with anyone. i dont see him wanting to get physical with anyone. he truly is a sweet summer child.
which makes his death even more infuriating… he didnt want to fight and he didn't seem to know how to fight. he only fought because he was pressured into it. it was all about "people" thinking he is a coward because he runs away from danger and he felt ashamed from that. in the end the social expectations that he fought against were what contributed mostly into his death.
thats why i really didn't like anything that happened in the season because the characters actions were in clear contradiction with their personal values. it just didnt make any sense.
I liked Eddie's character as he was. He didn't need to be a hero. Not every person can be a hero. People who are willing to lay down their life for others or for the greater good are very few. Most people are afraid and most people would run away. I know I would and I wouldn't fault anyone for being scared.
I don't think it's brave and commendable to throw your life away, especially when there would have been a lot of different ways to handle the given situation without anyone losing their life.

I shouldn't make headcanons before I finish the game, but here's some Vanillacupcakeshipping(Larry x Katy; kinda like this name better lol) headcanons!
They've only been married for 2 years now. They were dating for about 7 years before, though.
I like the idea that Giacomo is Larry's son :) so he is their son :) well Katy's step-son anyway! Maybe Larry was married before, I dunno lol
Larry tries everything Katy bakes, especially her newer pastries/experiments. Theres no garentee theyre added to the menu, but its pretty likely it will be.
Katy loves it when her husband comes home! She stays up as long as she can to wait up for him. She ends up falling asleep most times, however. Larry finds it very sweet of her, but worrying for her health.
Larry tries so hard to call her at the exact same time every day to say hello and check in on her, but sometimes he gets so busy that he cant call until the evening or not at all.
Though most times Katy cant answer anyway. Shes often too busy herself.
Katy really loves cute clothes so Larry will often come home with a cute dress or blouse he saw in the window and thought Katy would like it. She doesnt always find the chance to wear them, but its a nice gesture and she appreciates the thought behind it. They do have a couple date nights every month though and so she wears them then!
Speaking of date nights, I think they simply see a movie or go out eating. Larry makes it a point to spoil her on these nights because he thinks she deserves it. He also thinks she's a queen so he maybe a bit biased lol
He doesn't show it whatsoever, but on the inside Larry is a flustered mess any time Katy is around.
Larry worked a lot of over time in order to afford the ring he proposed with. She doesn't wear much jewelry due the risk of losing it while baking, but even so he wanted to give her a beautiful ring. It isnt fancy, the diamond is small but that was the point (since Katy doesn't wear much and prefers simple jewelry when she does wear it). What made it beautiful, and Katy can agree, are the custom web engravings on the outside and her name and the date they met was engraved on the inside too. Its very special to Katy and she wears it on a chain when she's working.
Their wedding wasn't anything special really. It was just their small families attending. A quick ceremony with a small reception at the bakery.
Giacomo is pretty okay with Katy. He didnt like her much when his dad and her started dating though. He mostly lives with his bio mom, but on the weekends he's with Larry and Katy— well when school isnt going on. Speaking of such, Larry had given up on trying to get Giacomo to go back to school. It was more so his ex-wife telling him to give up and let Giacomo make his own mistakes. Katy still feels like she may cross a line so she doesnt really say anything on the matter despite wanting to.
I don't think either of them want their own kids right now. Maybe in the future if its not too late, but for now they're fine.

Heeyyy can i make an eddie munson angst request?💔
Female reader has been in a relationship with Eddie for the last two years but breaks it off with him despite the fact that she still loves him
(She breaks up with him because she found out he is still selling drugs. Her best friend was an addict and had a really crappy time cuz of drugs and eventually it killed her and now reader can't tolerate the fact that eddie is into this world that killed her friend, she previously explained this to eddie that she sees dealing as helping vulnerable people to destroy themselves and eddie told her he'd stop (just cuz he didnt want to lose her) but she overhears eddie making a deal with someone and they have an argument and she tells him that she still loves him and doesn't wanna leave but she just can't mentally/emotionally deal with it)
this was so sad to write 😭
Title: Drug Dealer
Pairing: gender neutral reader x Eddie Munson
Warnings: drugs, mention of overdose, fluff, breakup, angst
A/N: To hold you over while you wait for the next part of Cheerleader :) Requests open, check my request rules and who I write for that’s linked on my navigation! My taglist is open and I would love it if you would like, comment, and reblog!
Tumblr media
You were not a fan of drugs. You just weren’t. You had tried them before for fun but have since vowed never again. You had your reasons. A very understandable reason. A little over two years ago, during your sophomore year of high school, your best friend Samantha overdosed. You knew she was doing drugs, and why too. She had started using hard drugs a few months before she died, and before you knew it she was addicted.
She stopped coming to school, she would ignore everyone, and she would stay at random peoples’ houses. You didn’t blame her, you blamed the drugs, and the people are her. Your classmates didn’t think the same way. Awful things were said about Sam at school. No one knew her like you did, so it pissed you off that they would talk about her. You missed her every day, and hoped that she was happy, wherever she was.
Your dislike of drugs was a problem during the beginning of your relationship with Eddie. At first you just tried to ignore the fact that he was a dealer. But it got to you after a while. One day after work Eddie was sitting at a table in his uncle’s trailer, sorting out baggies of weed. Your day had already been stressful, and seeing that made you break down. You dropped your bag on the floor and put your face in your hands, starting to sob.
Eddie’s eyes went wide and he immediately stopped what he was doing. “Y/n, y/n baby, what is it?” he asked. He had stood up and put his hands on your upper arms. He leaned down to try to see you. “Baby what is it?” he asked again. You sniffled loudly and sucked up your sobs. As soon as you moved your hands from your face Eddie wrapped his arms around you. He put a hand on the back of your head and very slowly started rocking back and forth, something he did whenever you were upset. “What’s wrong sweetheart?” he whispered in your ear.
“Eddie,” you hiccuped, “please stop selling drugs. I-I can’t- It hurts me to be around it. You know how-how Samantha died.”
He kissed the side of your hair. “Okay. If that’s what you want, then I’ll stop. Anything for you.”
“Thank you.”
And that was that. He gave the rest of what he had to his dealer and didn’t buy anymore. He got a job at the music store to make up for what he had been making. Things were good after that. Or at least that’s what you thought.
It was a quiet Tuesday at the video store; you’d only had about four customers in the six hours you had been working.
“Ugh,” Robin groaned. “Let’s just go home. We can close up early. No one’s coming anyways.”
“Sounds good to me,” you said. You and Robin locked up three hours early.
Your fingers drummed on the steering wheel as you drove to Eddie’s trailer. He would be surprised and delighted to spend extra time with you. You could imagine the childlike glee on his face when he sees you.
When you pulled up you noticed an unfamiliar car parked outside. Just as you were turning your SUV off the front door opened. A guy you had seen before walked out, looking around and clutching what appeared to be a small bag in his hand. He spotted you and nodded in greeting. You narrowed your eyes at him. This guy was a very well known stoner in town. You gripped your steering wheel, shutting your eyes and taking a deep breath. “This cannot be happening,” you thought. 
Once the stoner drove off you had cooled your emotions just a tad, enough to think straight. Despite that, you were holding back tears. You stepped out of your vehicle, walked up to the door of the trailer and opened it. You walked to Eddie’s room, heart breaking with each step.
“Eddie,” you choked out when you saw him sitting on his bed with an open lunchbox. The same lunchbox he had stored his drugs in before he stopped nearly two years ago.
“Baby,” he said, standing up. He rubbed his hands on the sides of his jeans.
“Eddie,” you repeated. “Are you selling again?”
“I-” he looked pitiful. He looked ashamed.
“Just tell me,” you said, defeated.
“I am but-”
You cut him off, “That’s all I need to hear.”
“Y/n please,” he begged. He took steps closer to you and tried to get you to look at him but you took a step away from him.
“No. You know, you know, how I feel about that. I asked you to stop and you said you would. You lied to me. You disrespected me and my wishes.” Tears fell from your cheeks. Your heart was breaking into a million pieces. No matter how much you loved him, or how much it hurt, you just couldn’t. You couldn’t be around it.
“Y/n please, I love you. I love you more than anything. You came into my life and made it so much better. I can’t lose you.” Tears were forming in his own eyes, and it broke your heart even more.
You shook your head, lip quivering. “I love you too but I can’t, I just can’t handle it.”
You both stood there for a minute silently before you turned around and started to walk to the door. Eddie followed behind you. “Don’t go. Don’t leave, please,” he said, voice cracking.
“I don’t want to go. But- but I have to.” You picked up your bag and opened the front door. You turned back to look at Eddie one more time. He looked completely unlike himself. His eyes were red and his cheeks were glistening with tears. All his energy was gone. He looked deflated. You turned away before you could change your mind.
“I love you,” you heard him say as you shut the door. You quickly walked to your car, trying to get as much distance as possible between you two. You drove for a few miles before the tears were blinding. You pulled over in an empty parking lot and let it all out. Two years of your life had been spent with Eddie. An amazing two years. You thought that he was the love of your life; that you would be together forever, but it seemed like you were wrong.

literally killingmyself
had my first customer get upset with me over self checkout. trying to stock shit while theres no one around and im rationalizing to myself well even if there is someone around they can check themself out now. but then this woman comes over i greet her and inform her about our new self check and shes like oh ok. but then she is hovering over me and eventually is rudely like. Well are you gonna check me out. “its just 3 items” she eventually like snidely says to me as if i shouldve known she wanted to be checked out bc of that?? its just 3 items fucking scan them yourself if youre gonna give me that attitude bitch
then another customer she was nice about it but she didnt realize it takes card only and iknew that a card out self check would be confusing to people especially with no clear indication that its card only until the end of the transaction. theres no label or sign saying card only. so she was a bit rankled about that and she said yeah bur theyre brand new i feel bad for you for having to run back and foeth between stocking and helping me at self check and im like haha its a learning curve for everyone. she leaves i go on my walkie and say yeah we absolutely should put a sign saying card only like i had said before cuz i already got a customer confused by it. Then mt fucking SM gives me fucking attitude and says “we’re the ambassadors we have to tell them, no sign” like huh? that defeats the whole purpose of self checkout if i need to constantly hover over every single person and ask them how they’re checking out. if youre using sco as a way to short staff us then fucking let me as main cashier do things i normally wouldnt be able to do in between customers, like stocking. i still cant fucking do that if i have to hover over ever single person then. Also thats just asking for trouble because just by nature of how crazy shit gets, someone will eventually forget to tell a customer and its no one’s fault its just being a fucking human but by not having it objectively posted that means anyone who gets mad when that eventually happens will then put the blame on the poor cashier. For the love of god for both the cashier and the customers sakes just put a fucking sign up what is your damn problem
AND THEN i have a creepy customer fucking asking me if we’re hiring, “are you guys still hiring Miss Brot?” (after looking at my nametag) i say no he says aw is it cuz /i/ asked i just said no lol its cuz its after the holidays we lose our seasonal hours. And hes acting all like weirdly flirty and he calls me beautiful hes with another man whose just acting as normal and the normal man is the one doing the purchase this weird guy is just standing next to him with him and so im just being normal with the normal guy ignoring the creepy guy but as i say have a good day then this man shouts out like Bye beautiful! like girlie leave me ALONE im in a terrible mood already

Second Chances - Part 6
The past few weeks Billy Russo has treated you to a whirlwind romance. He lavishes you with flowers and random gifts. Limited edition of your favorite books. Tickets to the theater. He cooks breakfasts and dinner for you Early morning runs in Central Park has become the norm. You do a couple laps around the Reservoir. He gave you a lot of shit for stopping in the middle of your runs at this guys cart for the best Spiced Hot Chocolate in the city. "It's the best! If Anthony's there, you have to stop and get some." Shrugging your shoulders, "I don't make the rules." Billy's given you a tour of Anvil and introduced you to his friends. They seemed shocked to meet you. Maybe Bill hasn't brought his women around his friends before. 3-4 night out of the week you spend at each other's place. You know it's just sex, just it sometimes feels like love.
Tumblr media
One night you're overseeing a black-tie fundraising event for a local politician. Its a big event that your company landed so you needed things to be perfect. The service and program went off without a hitch so you're heading out when you see Billy. He's didnt mention he'd be attending but there he is looking dashing as ever in a custom looking tuxedo. You head in his direction when a beautiful blonde slips her hand into his. Billy smiles down and kisses her. Wrapping his arm around her waist he holds her to his side.
Your world just got knocked off it's axis. Every bit of air has left your body. You cant breathe. You feel tears but refuse to let them fall. The woman is absolutely stunning and perfect. Billy's equal. This is the type of woman that belongs with Bill. Not you. Before you think better of it, you pull out your phone and call him, praying he'll step away to talk to you. He pulls out his phone and you get his voicemail. He rejected your call. You hang up and leave.
You barely make it home before you give in to your broken hearted tears. You get into the shower and try to scrub the memory of Billy off you. You cry until the hot water is gone and you have no tears left. You had no claim to Bill. He could see whoever he wanted. He had given you hope that there was indeed more to your relationship. For a man who doesn't do second dates, he spent a lot of time seducing you. Is that his game? He was with you for 3 night out of the week, has been with that woman for the other 4? You feel sick.
You throw yourself into your work. Bill's called you multiple times and you've ignored all of them. He's even dropped by your office and you had your assistant make excuses for you.
Your assistant must have said something to Candice because she is now at your place pounding on your door, "Y/N! Open up! I'm not leaving and I know you're in there!"
Rushing to the door, "Oh my God! I have neighbors, you lunatic. What's wrong with you?"
"The question is, 'What's wrong with YOU?' I figure you'd tell me when you're ready but...What did Russo do?"
Curls up on the couch, "I just needed time to sulk. I knew the type of man he was when I started this whole thing. I was taken in by the whole Russo package. I was out of my league from the very start."
"That's bullshit. Youre worth 10 of him!" You let her hug you, "What happened?"
"Bill attended Senator Ellis' fundraiser a couple weeks ago...with a date. I was working the event and saw them."
"Are you sure it was a date? You're just jealous. It makes you crazy.
"I'm positive it was a date. He held her hand and kissed her. I even called him and he looked at his phone and rejected my call."
Candice grimaces, "Aw, babe!"
"How can I hurt so much for losing someone that was NEVER mine. What kills me is I KNEW this going in. He admitted he prefers to keep things casual. He never promised me a damn thing."
"Have you talked? Did he explain himself?"
"I can't," shaking your head. "He's called but I don't feel strong enough to talk to him. He will never know how hard I cried over him that night."
"So, you're ghosting him." You don't answer. "Very mature."
"Hey! Who's side are you on?"
"I'm always on your side! Obviously he doesn't think dating other people an issue with you. And it is. Pull yourself together and end it on your terms. Do this and he'll stop with the calls and dropping by the office. Your torture will end and you can move on."

This is stupid, this was so fucking stupid but Jun would get himself killed of they didnt do something about it.
Maya and Kai knew for a while that their teammate was doing some shady shit lately, but this was damn near crazy. With Jun's landlord raising the price on rent he started to sell weapons to people that really, really shouldnt be having them. The teens knew money was needed to live in their world, but there had to be something better than that, especially something that wasnt gonna get their buddy arrested let alone lose his job.
Amaya was looking at her shoes, she knew this was the responsible thing to do, but she hated being a snitch--what happened to having eachother's backs no matter what? She took a glance at her level headed friend, "You sure we should do this, I mean I dont know if you have but I've certainly done my share of unethical shit for cash."
"Yeah, but first off you legitimately had no other option with your unemployed ass and secondly I remember you having to go to court multiple times for stealing," Kaito was biting his nails, he didnt really know why he was nervous. The kid trusted Kakashi, it wasnt like he'd throw the kid in a cell on sight, but still this was bad. Not to mention the guilt swallowing him for not calling this bullshit out when he found out a month ago.
They both knew it was pointless to try and talk since into their comrade now, the teen was too stubborn for his own good. Knowing Junpei he probably had been doing this for awhile now (considering that his landlord raised the rent almost four months ago) and was getting an adrenaline rush by not getting caught yet. But gods damn this could lead to serious trouble, with the law and rougher 'customers.'
Kaito wanted to go to Anko-sensei about it first, yet Maya brought up a good point; what would she be able to do? Don't get them wrong, they wouldnt trade their sensei for the world but when it came to legal strings she had little to none, at best she could maybe talk Jun down to taking a break from pushing illegal weapons.
The kids lost the chance for consideration when they saw a familiar silver haired man.
Kakashi was a busy man. There were a lot of things for him to do in a day and rarely did he find the opportunity to linger around and chat with old friends.
Yet, as he rounded the corner and laid eyes upon Kaito and Maya standing in the hallway just outside of his office, he couldn't help but feel like this was one of that moments he had to make time.
Perhaps it was the glum looks on their faces or the overbearing weight that seemed to hover in the small space. Maybe it was simply because he hated seeing the two of them look at him as if they were afraid to speak.
Afraid to tell him whatever it was that plagued his mind.
Coming to a stop in front of the pair he looked between them. An attempt to assess the situation before he broached the subject of their presence.
Judging by the way Kaito refused to meet his eyes, he guessed that it was bad.
Very bad.
"And to what do I owe the pleasure?" he asked in a poor attempt to lighten the mood even just a little.

ok im suffocating you in prompts but
imagine mo getting jealous over df like
maybe a bunch of tourist girls are paying too much attention to him and he knows df wouldnt respond and that hes loyal but he still wants to lay his claim you know
so he gets in there stands close to him even swings a hand over his shoulder while df is thinking oh youre very forward today silvertongue what happened
one of the women makes a very forward move and refers to mo as dustfingers friend or even brother and mo is like ok thats enough love we're leaving and on the way out he pecks him on the lips and thats when df realizes ooooh you were jelly to my peanut butter werent you and mo is all like i dont know what youre talking about i just didnt want to be there anymore would you prefer if i left you there and of course they go home and make up and make out lay their claims on each other something something posessive sex maybe
-G
you know these prompts are the highlight of my days <3 thanks and sorry it’s taking me forever to get through them ily
*
The villa doesn't always get tourists, but when it does, it's in swarms -- at least that's what it feels like when more than one big bus arrives at once, flooding the plaza with sunglasses and cameras. Mo watches from inside the bookshop as people trickle out in a never-ending line.
Tourists are, however, not only a promise of good sales for him, but also of good work for Dustfinger. The local fire-juggler and his trained pet marten have become quite the anticipated act since they moved here.
Standing by the bookshop (in the shade because his all-black clothes are a hassle in the midday sun), his hands clasped behind his back, Dustfinger still feels like a dream sometimes. Mo smiles to himself just as Dustfinger turns quickly to wave at him; he gives the man a thumbs up and he gladly walks to the crowd.
Mo could sit by the counter and watch through the shop windows; he'd actually be glad to do so. Dustfinger's performances never lose their magic and even in daylight he still holds everyone's attention at the palm of his burning hands.
But the bell jingles and a fifteen year-old with green hair and long-sleeves walks in, plucking off her earbuds with a bored expression. For a moment, Mo wishes Meggie was here.
"Afternoon," he chimes and the girl offers him a raised eyebrow. Wary. "I'm Mo. Feel free to call if you need anything, alright?"
She nods and goes back to looking around. The murder/mystery section seems to catch her eye and Mo stops watching, goes back to tagging some new volumes.
It's a few moments before he hears from her. He's just going around the counter to reorganize some shelves when she goes, Hello you! with the softest of voices. A long mrrrreow! follows and Mo chuckles.
"His name is Gustav," he announces. "He's... A little dumb."
The girl gasps audibly. "Don't listen to him, Gustav, I'm sure he doesn't mean it," she whispers.
A burst of flames lights up the plaza, then. Mo turns to look as Dustfinger nears the end of his performance. A fire-dragon circles Dustfinger without harming him or the astonished crowd. At last, the dragon disappears in a cloud of light smoke and the master gives an exaggerated bow as the group erupts in claps and shouts.
* * *
It's been a good half hour since Dustfinger's show ended. Mo's been busy with customers, mostly enjoying the little gift shop. The last group to leave the shop is actually Gustav's friend with her mother; she waves goodbye timidly before letting the door slide shut. Gustav runs headfirst into the glass trying to chase after her and she looks mortified.
Mo approaches the tabby cat and collects him in his arms, massages his little head carefully. Gustav quickly turns into a purring machine. That's when he notices Dustfinger still hasn't come back; he's standing in the plaza, his equipment still spread around his feet as three women circle him with smiles and soft touches.
Mo isn't jealous. Well, not too jealous; he trusts his boyfriend/almost-husband/character-he-read-out-of-a-book-and-has-fallen-in-love-with/partner. It's the way Dustfinger looks around, a little uncomfortable with the proximity of those 3 strangers, that makes something boil in his blood. He puts Gustav down gently before marching outside.
"Thanks. Haha, thank you," Dustfinger keeps repeating, accepting the insistent compliments to his performance and looks.
The thing is, Mo and Dustfinger, they're not exactly hiding, but they're discreet. Not everyone in the villa has caught up to the fact that they're a couple and not just business partners who happen to also live together. With two kids. And a cat.
But Mo doesn't care about that right now. He approaches the group and gently places a hand on Dustfinger's back. The fire-eater jumps in place, but seems to relax completely as soon as he sees who it is.
"Silvertongue!" He beams and the sun suddenly becomes bleary and boring. "I mean, Mo. These lovely ladies have taken extra time to compliment my work, isn't that nice?"
"Very much so," Mo nods towards the women. "We appreciate your kindness."
The three women share a look, one of them actually huffs and chuckles. She looks Mo up and down, then turns to face Dustfinger again, making a point of ignoring Mo’s presence.
“Anyway, as I was saying, we were wondering if you do private shows?” She raises an eyebrow, reaches forward to pull an errand red hair off Dustfinger’s shoulder. “We’re staying in town for the night and we’d love if you could maybe join us... That is, if your, uh, brother will allow it.”
They laugh amongst themselves again and Mo can sense the way Dustfinger’s shoulders tense up, trying to control his temper. He doesn’t want to be rude to them, even though they would deserve it.
“Sorry, we already have something scheduled,” Mo says, stepping forward. He turns to Dustfinger, “Get your stuff, darling, we gotta head back, yeah?”
Dustfinger nods, gratitude in his eyes. He makes a quick move of collecting his equipment, shoving everything with Gwin in the bag and zipping it shut.
“Thanks for the kind words,” the fire-eater says one last time. “Enjoy your stay!”
He turns around and starts walking away, and Mo gives a long look to the women before following. His hand finds Dustfinger’s shoulder and Dustfinger’s arm circles his waist, pulling him into a soft kiss.
“You okay?” The fire-eater asks, frowning.
“Are you?” Mo can’t help the way his words are red, angry.
Dustfinger takes no offense. He pushes the shop door open and holds it out for Mo, who steps inside and looks back at the women through the window. All three of them are still watching them, now full of shock in their features.
“Are you...” He looks as Dustfinger resumes speaking, “Jealous?”
Mo lets out a long breath. He hates himself for the little show he just put up. “Maybe... A little...”
Dustfinger is chuckling. He drops his bag to the floor, pulls Mo into a tight hug and plants a long, open-mouthed kiss on his lips.
“You silly man,” is a soft murmur when they break apart. Dustfinger’s nose rubs into Mo’s. “You know you’ve got me smitten with your love spell.”
Mo rolls his eyes. “I didn’t hex you, D, how many times-”
“My silvertongue.” He’s teasing and Mo knows. “My wizard of words~”
“Yours,” Mo agrees, his face suddenly warm.
And maybe he doesn’t have to act jealous and he definitely doesn’t have to worry about Dustfinger cheating. But he does like the effect it has on Dustfinger...
Even more later that night, when Dustfinger gets aggressive and bites into his shoulder as he fucks Mo so hard he’s sore for two whole days after, all the while saying people are gonna know you’re mine now, and then lets Mo bite and mark him as well.
And he’s not jealous, he isn’t.
But it feels good.

Shogun Steel Episode 3:
-wait how did shinobu think he could kick zyro out actually???? He doesnt own beyblade. He doesnt own the beypark. What tf is that entitlement????
-i like that maru also speaks to shinobu like he should know who she is. Tbf, he should, shes more important than him
-"run away? My battle with you has already been settled" dont worry zyro, shinobu just doesnt know how to handle a gay panic
-BACKGROUND GIRL BLADER EXISTS I LIKE HER OUTFIT
-tsubasa: i left my office. Im going to act all cool but really its because i accidently dumped all my paperwork out the window and im escaping before my subordinates murder me.
-i want to think that all the waitresses at benkeis cafe are really good bladers who are trained to destroy annoying customers. Shinobu or kite acts rude to one once and they get killed in 5 seconds.
-i want to see someone pass out in the middle of battle again, up on those platforms they seem even more removed than they did before and i want to revel in the hilariousness
-the guy facing zyro didnt even try to attack why would they be surprised abt losing then
-kite appears. Rip me im going to actually have to recognize his existence next episode.
-i wish there was a whole episode of zyro and maru shenanigans before this rematch with shinobu and zyro. The runtime is simply unfortunate. Its messed up the pacing so much
-salamander weaves slightly, it clearly would keep him from getting hit despite the range being less than its diameter.
-someone give shinobu an ace ring
-shinobu copied hikarus move. At least hes got good taste
-zyro: I ONLY HAVE ONE TRICK AND DAMN IF I WONT KEEP USING IT UNTIL IT WORKS
-maru actually rooting for zyro like shed deny it later but shes actually invested in him winning. She wants to pretend to be superior to bladers (which she is) but shes totally the type to get super excited and start bouncing up and down in the middle of a game
-i feel like if zyro knew masamune hed copy some of masamunes techniques. I think theyre also pretty similar
-"no way! It cant be! Zyros on fire but his jacket is so fake that it cant even burn"
-shinibu loses. There goes his entire sense of identity. Hikaru would bully him.
-tsubasa if you keep giving bad cryptic lines im stealing your screentime rights.
-summary: there was the least amount of maru and zyro interactions in this episode so obviously its the worst. I wasnt too invested in the whole thing and i feel like its kinda bad pacing. But otherwise its still a solid episode, just doesnt have enough buildup of zyros character and relationships for me.

I work at an art supply store in a popular city in america (i think there's like a handful idk) and I swear to god, some of the men i work with are on one. I don't mean to come off as complaining but sometimes the lack of respect, discipline, and creativity from some of these dudes really get to me. Like i can't help but feel frustrated. They really have me questioning my sanity. Like the other night, we were having a goodbye party for one of the girls who quit to focus on her art. From my POV it was going great. My friend and I had a few drinks and I managed to separate myself from the people I'd usually avoid until i started talking to two of my managers (I adore one of them, she can do no wrong imo). We started talking about how some people in the store can be a bit misogynistic. There was an incident with a coworker and I where he kinda just brushed me off in front of a customer as if i was stupid and it was really humiliating. He kinda undermines all of the women in the store and always has to be right. Anyways. After that i was like 'man this guy stinks.' I can acknowledge that i need to chill out and stop being so mad about things but at this point its repeated behavior and i can't stand seeing my friends be disrespected at work. We started discussing his behavior at work and TBF we both had drinks and I was just pulling his leg, but he got super defensive of this dude and then started ranting as if i was accusing HIM of hating women. Honestly i didnt care to argue so i just left after saying something dumb back. Flash forward to the next day. I'm talking to my coworkers about the party and they start saying all the creepy things he did that night including kissing a coworker's shoulder w/out consent. The last time he had a party at his place he got super drunk and was trying to dance/grind on every girl there, including myself. Keep in mind that i'm super awkward so i literally stood there frozen. That night was garbage. Anytime he is drunk his true self comes out and it's so gross because he gets so aggressive and touchy. This is why you don't party with your managers. Now I see him and i get rlly annoyed. Like genuinely annoyed. That being said. The last time i argued with a manager I had the worst experience at work ever. Going in was always torture. That's a whole other story in itself. The general consensus is that that guy sucks and is toxic. But so is this other guy. There's no point in bringing it up to management because they hate conflict and will try to find a middle ground. There's no middle ground. This dude is a creep. I don't know if i want him to lose his job... That's kinda evil right. This behavior isn't going to change overnight. Multiple people in the store have told him that his behavior is gross. And he's like 'yeah ik, i gotta work on that' but... he's not.... doing.. anything. to change. And he's the type of person to get hangry. Girl this is not kindergarten 🤨

Raine Days(oc) art+ramble
i am losing my mind, i cannot draw digitally at this time so im left to either draw traditionally in my silly little graphing notebook or write out silly ideas for my character
Tumblr media Tumblr media
have my silly notebook page and a silly finger phone doodle🫶
dont mind the cat ear doodles, not canon to them, i just felt silly goofy (they are infact a fruit bat now)
and i apologize in advance for the lengthy ramble below🙏
i believe this hides the rest of my ramble for those who wish to read and those who dont? but anyways onto my ramble
so ive recently discovered, what was missing from raines design was little animal parts! (my old middle school days have returned to haunt me)
taking into account how theyre meant to be the sleepy character in the cast, i took to the internet to find sleepy animals, as i didnt want to do the basic cat ears and tail (i have enough ocs who are part cat, again from my middle school days) and in my searching i remembered bats exist!! so raine is now part fruit bat! (their favorite fruit is grapes incase anyones even curious)
but then i started thinking about what their relationships with all the other characters would be like, so starting off with of course the main man of the cast...
•wally! - i like to think theyre besties or at the very least close friends! perhaps Raine might take on a more leading role in their friendship when wallys learning something or doing something silly, like how everyones decided wally steals apples from howdys store. i like to think raine tries to intervene, or at least pay. (so wally doesnt get in trouble) which leads to their relationship with...
•howdy! - since raine pays (like a normal customer) for their items (and wallys) howdy is thankful and for that the two have a good relationship! not besties but they are friends! not much to say though, but sometimes howdy gives them little deals as a thanks! specifically on the items raine often buys! (theyre very consistent in what they pick, grapes and a blue soda, and no they do not know what the actual flavor is, only blue)
•sally! - again, besties! more so than with wally actually! before their house was built, raine actually lived with sally for a little while! they had the same problem that poppy does at the beginning, where when sally would be rehearsing to herself raine would think she was talking to them. they learned quick though, and would actually help sometimes too! their checkered pj pants are actually a gift from sally, as raine wanted to match something with sally! they sleepover often together (raine always falls asleep first however)
•julie! - theyre friends! julies pretty energetic, which keeps raine awake for the most part when they hang out together, but sometimes raine just really needs to rest or chill out, which julie gladly respects. raine loves looking at and taking care of flowers with her though! theyve joined julie in talking to franks flowers, granted that raine can't actually understand the flowers. (they fully believe juile can though) which leads to...
•frank! - theyre uh fine? not enemies or anything but not quite close friends or anything? franks knows a lot about stuff and has a lot of books, which raine likes, but frank can be a bit serious which kinda just worries raine sometimes that he doesnt like them. they want to read his books though. which in turn leads to...
•eddie! - close friends! eddie teaches raine arts and crafts often, as they find it fun and cute. they keep every craft they do together because they like having little trinkets around their house. eddies also trying to help raine get close to frank actually, reassuring them that frank likes them. (theyre still worried, its a wip)
•poppy! - poppys got a kind of mothering relationship with raine! she teaches them how to bake actually, raine took interest in it after the first time poppy gave them some homebaked goods. now whenever theres an event where everyone brings treats or food, raine helps poppy bake! also raine tends to bruise easily and randomly, which poppy worries a lot about (its gotten to where poppy baby proofed her home out of concern) they still get bruises from god knows what
so overall, theyre friends with most of the neighbors, with the outliers being the slow growing work in progress friendship with frank, and the mother/child relationship they have with poppy rather than friendship.
thats all for now! i'll probably make another ramble specifically about raines habits soon! (if anyone's actually interested, if not another essay for my notes app🫶)

awh those hc for atsushi & tanizaki hurt me in all the rights ways but they were also rlly soft and those are the writings i love the most, i kept on rereading it hehe
and i never realized how much i loved tanizaki until i came across those hcs so i thank you for awakening that for me <33
this request might seem to similar to the one the anon asked for so you don’t have to write this if you don’t want to, but can i ask for atsushi and tanizaki (separately) accidentally standing up their s/o on a date?? smth like they’re there for hours and the boys just don’t show up and their s/o just goes home? or they arrive just as their abt to leave?
and pls pls take care of yourself author-san we love u💗💗
sorry this might come late aaaaaaa anw thank u sm for this req (i never thought tht the tanizaki + atsu post would do well) i hope u enjoy, take care too ^^
hcs for atsushi and tanizaki accidentally standing up their s/o.
nakajima atsushi
like i said in the other post mentioned in the ask, he isnt the type of guy to forget dates or stand you up
he'd feel guilty and sad if he did yknow, esp if its on purpose. he wouldnt do tht to you
so let's say tht he had an urgent matter to attend to that popped up unexpectedly
he couldn't tell you over the phone because his phone is dead, and he couldn't borrow anyone else's because he'd only be rushed out of the agency to do this task
"im so sorry, y/n. ill try and make it on time." he says to no one in particular as he speeds up his pace to finish this mission as quick as he can
you, on the other hand, are all set to go to this new cafe down the block
it's been a while since he's taken you on a date, and it just so happens to be at a friday afternoon after your work/school and his work hours
usually he's the first one to arrive, but you show up first, and you didnt think much of it, he could be caught up with dazai again
aaaaand its been 30 mins and he hasnt shown up so you order something and decide to wait for him more, you know his work and how it can be.... weird... at times
you've finished your food by the time the sky turns dark and the cafe slowly loses its customers as its almost abt to close
its not tht late, probably around 7 pm, you lost track of time anyway
you were sad, but also confused because atsushi, the atsushi nakajima, had stood you up. out of all people?
since you dont wanna be kicked out by the employees, you left by yourself, leaving a tip for ur waitress who so kindly gave you an extra drink ("hey, i saw you kinda sad, so its on the house.")
on your way back home, you saw atsushi running towards you with a tired expression
"atsu? are you okay?" you worry abt his appearance, his shirt sleeves ripped up to his biceps and pants also ripped
"you're worrying abt me when im 3 hours late to our date? :("
"of course i am, who cares abt the date?? are you okay, are you injured?" even if you were bummed out abt the date, his well being came first to you, which made atsushi lowk tear up
he pulls you into a hug and keeps apologizing for being late, saying he'll make it up to you and whatnot but ur here fussing because he won't let you tend to him
y'all ended up watching a movie at home after he reluctantly let you patch him up and feed him
hes so happy tht you weren't mad at him like fr he was like "what if she hates me? what if she thinks im cheating?" on the way to the coffee shop 😔 my poor baby
tanizaki junichirou
i keep using naomi as his excuse but i really cant think of any other thing that can keep him away
naomi probably needed help for a project in school, so he left a bit earlier to go to help her in the library. 
when u woke up, juni wasnt there anymore, so you thought he was preparing for your cute little picnic date
u imagined him setting up a cute little blanket with fairy lights and candles like omg so romantic
so u were sooo excited !! u sent him a quick text saying that ure getting ready and u got up to heat up the food u both prepared the night before
with the basket in hand u walked to the park where u planned to set up
aaaand he wasnt there, like nothing
there were no fairy lights, no blanket, no candles, nothing
poor u, u thought he would already be setting up the date :((
so u called atsushi to see if he went to the agency 
“tanizaki-kun? he hasn’t been here since yesterday, i dont think he has a shift today, y/n-san. why do you ask?”
“oh... thank you, atsushi. i was just looking for him..”
“have you tried calling him?” 
“yeah but i think he has his phone turned off...”
ok anw
you waited like around 4 hours for him to show up :((
like u tried not to eat the food but damn u havent eaten so u ate like a few sandwiches and one of the yogurts you packed
until the sun went down and he still hasnt arrived
but he called you! 
“y/n, where are you? i just got home from the library...” 
“library? what were you doing in the library?”
“i was helping naomi with her project, i thought i told you?”
“well you forgot, and you also forgot we had a date today, im guessing?”
“... a date? what do- oh.. the picnic date we planned??? omg y/n i-im so sorry-”
“it’s fine, junichirou,” you sigh “ill just go home-”
“nononono! im coming there, wait for me, okay?”
“juni, it’s fine, really, ill just go home”
“nope, stay there, baby, im coming”
and he arrived with candles and fairy lights and take out from your favorite place :(((
so yeah he really just becomes clingy and apologizes a lot and makes it up to u :((
“y/n :((((( im sorry :((((((”
“i told u, its fine”
