SALAAR (SPOILER ALERT)

continuing my tags from a previous post (sorry 😭 @deadloverscity) : like i said, i do think salaar is a good story so far. I like the world-building, I like the tribe coalition system that becomes a background for our story, and i like the fact that varadha and deva are in a toxic yaoi relationship.

im not gonna lie tho, i just haaaate the cinematography and lighting in prashant neel's movies. it's always a bad time there. It's like slapping a vignette over every frame of the movie, and it takes away any colour whatsoever. I understand that he wants to go for a dark vibe, but trust me, dark vibes can be achieved even without making the entire movie dark and invisible. I literally cannot see the actors doing any action! It's bad! It's not enjoyable. As a typical Telugu moviegoer (and assuming the movie was made for a predominantly telugu audience), I enjoy a somewhat vibrant colour scheme. So far, in all of our movies and even the mega movies (if you have watched RRR and Baahubali) there is a lot colour and imagery going on in the movies. I think in Prashant neel's cinemas, all of this is taken away. He has a set of colours that appear in his films consistently - which are black, grey and red. This colour scheme i feel, if repeatedly used, can be a bit boring and may take away the vibrance of the story. the stark contrasts (imo) do not emphasise the story, they overshadow it. still, take this w a grain of salt.

However, considering the fact that this is just his fourth film, ill cut him some slack. But man, if he is going to make movies for a telugu audience, i hope he lets go of the vignette filter.

next, the worldbuilding. i like it - here is a country that is completely separated from india, yet dictates certain aspects of it. i like that they chose an isolated place that evolves in parallel with the mainland, but retains the values of the tribes, making this place mythical and real at the same time. i was really intrigued by the tribe lore - about how the mannars ousted the shouryangas, and how rajamannar basically went against his own father's rule-book and is now facing dire consequences from bharava, whose tribe has the right to the throne right now. i also love love love loveeeeeee the fact that deva is the rightful heir to the throne - and also also the fact that whether he knows about this or not is left ambiguous. i love how this adds another layer to amma's hatred of khansaar and OH. MY. GOD. chef's kiss i love it.

as a personal taste, i don't like violence and epic fights tm overshadowing the narrative, which i feel the movie does. however, kannada film-making might be different. idk, i havent seen many kannada films other than kantara and kgf. the former is good i absolutely love it - the story is fantastic, the fight scenes are chumma, ufff i can praise it for days. the latter is pretty meh for me.

another thing i love about the movie is.. well, varadha and deva. dude, what is up with telugu guys unintentionally making queer movies these days? what is up with that yallll??? ohmygod. when i tell you that i smelled the romance im not lying. dude. dudeee. the whole friends to enemies to (maybe) friends/lovers arc theyve got going on? oooh baby i can feel the fanfics writing themselves. the whole soaked in blood-fighting-together scene? it was a miracle i wasnt jumping up and down on my seat. the dialogue in that scene 'i have friends more handsome than you' and then varadha getting kinda jealous and shit. lovely. the whole don't touch him thing that deva has got going on - baby boy just kiss him. and man. it's beautiful tragic and im writing a fanfic.

soo yeah this is my rant about salaar. im expecting something from it lol.

🌟🪐Star baby🪐🌟

So update on the writer guy: Honestly ever since we exchanged face reveals, he's acting like he's obsessed with the way I look. Specifically, my eyeballs. At first, it was cute and all...

But yesterday I felt like it was getting too much about me (specifically my face) so I tried to have a constructive or fun conversation. I asked him how his day went (it was Saturday) and how did he spend it. He said nothing and his life is pretty boring; he does nothing all day. Well, we spent 4 hours the day before just talking about his hobbies and passion for books and movies and writing so I was kinda thrown off. Which I suppose is not too bad, BUT THEN! He said his mind is occupied by something else entirely. Internally I went "Ain't no way he's gonna say it" and I played dumb and tried my best to steer away when he said "It's you. And specifically how you would look in casuals haha."

Star he wanted pictures of how I looked in jeans and shirts, I was MEGA disappointed. I felt objectified, not admired. I felt so disappointed because we bonded over meaningful conversations about our shared interests and thoughts and well... I just wanted a wholesome friendship ._.

We haven't talked since I said no to him. I even watched a movie and told him I watched Before Sunrise and it's beautiful and he replied "Good".

I'm so done. If we ever happen to talk again and he asks for pics or smth I'll straight up block him.

Anyways

HOW'S YOU MY LIDDOL LOVE??? How was ur weekend, I read the posts about the party and how much fun u had and my heart swelled and felt so warm. I love it when you're happy and having a good time; you deserve it considering the kind of week you had. Even so, I hope from here on your days are filled with warmth and loads of fun and love.

I LOVE YOU MY STAR💫

Your, 🦝

HI MY ANGELLLL 🫶🫶

Oh my god not the eyeball obsession…… HELPPPP THAT’S SO WEIRD???? I fucking HAAAATE IT when you’re in a talking phase with someone and they have to make it sexual 🤕 the first time my ex boyfriend did it I cried so hard because I genuinely thought we were building a connection and I brushed it off the next day, but looking back I would just cut off somebody who did that bc it’s always so random and it just completely throws off the dynamic. Like the minute some guy just wants pictures I will just straight up block now 😐 I’m so sorry bby I thought he seemed so cool and I was excited at least you’d have a wholesome friendship with him but it sucks he had to make it weird ☹️ if he tries to bother you again I will actually fight him frfr

ANYWAYS IM GOOOOOD my weekend was simultaneously so fun but tiring at the same time and I didn’t sleep at all last night so I’m so excited to be done w work today because I’m going to nap allllll day 🫶 I might order a coffee or something to keep me awake bc I feel so unproductive but other than that I’m pulling thru !! I also can’t believe it’s April omg this year is flying by frfr

I LOVE YOU BABY ANGELLLL I hope you have the best week ever and I’m sending you all my love always xoxoxoxo remember to eat and drink lots of water. I love u 👼💕💖💞💘💓💗 boop

🐞🌻🌱💜 For the ask game!! I demand more f/o dinopants lore (respectfully)

AAAA THANK YOU.. u want lore i can GIVE u lore, i have so much of it oh my god.. 💜💜💜

🐞 - What makes your f/o squirm?

Diego: he haaaates when things don't look put together, it makes his skin crawl. if he walks into a room and there's a piece of furniture slightly out of place, that's the first thing he'll point out and immediately insist must be fixed. he's particular about clothing as well; his suits need to be pressed and properly fitted, he'll go bananas if anything isn't to his liking and he'll make it everyone's problem LOL

HP: crowded spaces, lots of loud noises. they like their peace and quiet, a little stimulation is fine but it can quickly become too much. it's not uncommon for them to sort of disappear from social situations to go find a quiet corner. i'm usually in the same boat, following right behind them. it's hard when your boyfriend is the mayor and you get dragged into a lot of social gatherings :((

🌻 - How does your f/o cheer you up?

answered this already on this post but i'll say more about it anyway :))) HP is an amazing cook and really enjoys spending time in the kitchen.. they like to invite me to sit on the counter and watch them make my favorite meal, and they'll let me talk about whatever is upsetting me (if i need to). Diego is really good about offering distractions when i'm upset, so it's not uncommon for him to drag me outside to go ride horses together or take a walk. he prefers to fill the silence by talking about his work, which is great because i don't like to talk much when i'm upset, i'd rather just listen.

🌱 - How does your f/o feel about nature?

they love it, but in different ways. HP likes to be out in it, they aren't bothered by dirt or bugs or anything else that could be considered "gross". Diego spends a lot of time outside too, but he definitely avoids being too exposed. we all love animals, we have some cats and dogs and horses (ofc) and cows and yes, even dinosaurs.. Diego has a habit of turning house bugs into microraptors, even though we tell him we have too many lizards running around already !!!! he can't help it, he loves the little guys

💜 - Free space!

HP can SING, oh my god they can sing and it's so beautiful... they're shy about it though, only doing it when they think no one can hear them. but we've caught them in the act a few times, we tell them they should show off their skill more often but of course they say no :')

Diego is a cuddly motherfucker but he will absolutely not admit it to anyone, and if we point it out to him he'll immediately resist any physical touch for a long time.. as if that will somehow make us forget about the way he so clearly likes being bundled up in a blanket with either one of us (or both!!!!)

read max brooks’ devolution the other day, which was A Thing to do right before bed. i liked it though!

it’s a horror novel in similar style to world war z, where some of it is interviews with various peoples, and most of it is the journal of one of the people living in a microcommunity designed and built by tech guys(six word horror story) to be eco-friendly and self-sustaining, except it’s on the slopes of mt rainier and when it erupts, even though they’re out of immediate danger, they’re cut off from things like drone grocery supplies and the internet they need to call for help. which might have worked out okay, except the eruption drove a troop of bigfoots from their usual home. the subtitle of the book is “a firsthand account of the rainier sasquatch massacre” so you can guess how that goes for everyone

spoilers and thoughts under the cut

i was kind of leery about it after i read the free sample off kindle, so it’s been a solid few weeks between reading that and reading the rest of the book, but eventually i decided i can finish it fast enough for a refund if it sucks. the sample was basically the intro to all the characters and, since i was interpreting it as a slasher intro, i will admit i was primed to hate everyone. you have the conflict-avoidant protagonist kate and her useless husband dan, tony the tech guy who designed the place and his “guru” wife yvette, a vegan foodie couple bobbi and vincent, a philosopher, reinhardt, a lesbian psychologist couple, carmen and effie, and their adopted daughter palomino who escaped the rohingya genocide, and mostar, an older woman who’s a sculptor working in a 3D printer. the only people i didn’t hate in the first chapter were palomino, who i was sad about presumably being in the massacre, and mostar, who people were jerks to

tony and yvette were…exactly what that description makes you think they were like. kate went all crushy over tech guy right away and wrote about guru in that annoying “ohhh she’s so BEAUTIFUL and NICE i haaaate her” way. foodie couple…eh. boring and annoying. i don’t even remember their intro. they turn out to be Those kinds of vegans that think animals are all sweet innocent harmless creatures. philosopher was pretentious. there was some hinting that carmen was emotionally abusive, but that never went anywhere? i don’t know if we’re expected to assume that the life-or-death situation improves their relationship like it does for kate and dan. also they gave their daughter a “placeholder” name so she could change it in the future if she wanted. which is fine as a concept but it felt weird that there’s never any mention that she probably had a name before? she’s mostly nonverbal throughout the book so it’s possible that she was never able to tell anyone her original name though. also the placeholder is “palomino” because of how her only possession when she was adopted was a book about horses.

anyway, i was disappointed that the free sample didn’t even mention any ~weird noises in the woods~ but once the volcano erupted things started moving faster. mostar immediately starts prepping for the long haul of being cut off and everyone is like “oh she’s ~crazy~ of course we’ll be reconnected and back to normal super soon” but she is the only person with a brain. tony is like “oh it’s fine we have water and power and heat and yes the volcano erupted but we’re fine and yes we can’t contact the outside world and the satellite radio is saying things are bad but they’re totally not don’t even worry about it” and yvette is alternately spouting bullshit crystal-healing slogans about ~connection~ and ~healing~ and playing social mind games to maintain control. like it feels as if they could’ve turned things into a cult if it wasn’t for getting cut off from supplies. they absolutely feel like people who could have manipulated their ~micro-eco-community~ into total obedience given enough time. they’re already isolated enough to make it work even before the eruption

everyone else in this story is SO FUCKING STUPID about wildlife. like carmen and effie are encouraging pal to hand-feed a random deer apples when they are cut off from getting any food from outside. a literal fucking mountain lion nearly eats pal and mostar chases it off with a homemade spear and yvette starts screaming at her about “it was just scared! how could you hurt it! you provoked it!” despite knowing it was bigfoots breaking into the compost bins, mostar tells everyone that it was a bear so they’ll actually listen but bobbi gets So Offended when she asks if anyone has bear spray and they decide to spread the compost in the fucking woods for the “bears” to eat! no brains! not one! they actually say that bears aren’t aggressive! they are when they’re fucking hungry because a fucking volcano exploded and drove all the food away! then kate and dan get bigfoot footage and prove to everyone that that’s what’s around and they’re like “no this is good most apes are herbivores! maybe they’re friendly! no we’ve never heard any of the seven million cautionary tales about not treating any wildlife, particularly apes, like harmless pets!”

if you hadn’t guessed, the most prevalent theme in this book is “nature is not nice” with a side order of “being too dependent on tech will fuck you over when that tech fails.”

mostar is the best character in the book tbh. she lived in a warzone that she never names but references a lot of things she learned there. including the sniper trick the bigfoots try. as mentioned, she is the only one to have a brain when the plot starts and drags everyone else kicking and screaming into growing one too. except tony and yvette. like a third of the way into the book they go and hole up in their house and proceed to have complete mental breakdowns, then get eaten. as you do. but they’re still terrible so it’s still satisfying. although it’s hinted that part of tony’s might be that he saw or even got chased by a bigfoot. but since he was trying to abandon everyone and save his own ass, it’s not like you work up much sympathy for him

the bigfoots are led by a scarred matriarch ruling what seems to be at least mostly her own family group, which was a touch i liked and made her being dubbed the “alpha” much more tolerable. also the fact that it’s not like kate is the kind of person who’d know more than the most mainstream nature stuff. also the bigfoots appear to be either human-level intelligent or close to it. on top of hurting one human to try to lure the others into a rescue, there’s a moment where one seems to be holding pal hostage(it doesn’t work. effie literally rips the bigfoot’s throat out with her teeth), and it’s speculated that alpha destroying kate’s garden and leaving a pile of dung in the middle might be spite. a very human motivation. kate seems pretty convinced that they’re capable of reason. so that made it a little weird towards the end when “zoo fees” are mentioned in the context of bigfoots. like i appreciated that it wasn’t going to be the standard government coverup angle. the book speculated that the government is planning to reveal the proof when the disaster relief is handled and attract a bunch of tourism based on bigfoots. admittedly primates aren’t especially one of my areas of interest but the way the bigfoots act strikes me as at least smart enough to cause a lot of debate on whether it’s ethical to keep them in captivity, even if they aren’t fully as intelligent as humans.

speaking of the lure, i think that was the most effectively scary part. besides the conceptual horror of them being smart enough to do that(and, you know, the idea of suffering through it), there’s a short but really effective passage that leads you to the slow realization of what alpha is waving at the humans and, therefore, exactly what happened to vincent. terrifying

i also really enjoyed the narrative foils of kate and alpha. maybe that’s not the right word for it but whatever that mirroring they have going on is. how alpha seems to recognize kate as the protagonist/the biggest threat/the enemy alpha. alpha destroying the garden in spite rather than taking the opportunity to kill kate after the burn. kate leading the desecration of alpha’s mate’s body to begin the real fight, alpha killing dan, kate killing alpha. it’s good.

even though she dies for it effie literally ripping juno’s throat out with her teeth to save pal is so fucking cool

i was very glad pal survived, at least potentially. i’m naturally biased in favor of the humans, but i liked the part of the ending where kate’s brother theorizes that maybe nobody’s found her and pal because they decided to hunt down the surviving bigfoots and may even still be out there, tracking the survivors to find other troops and living off bigfoot meat. fuck ‘em up.

Hello, I hope I'm not bothering you, but do you have any good "enemies to lovers" recs, may they be books or movies?

I neeeever am bothered by people asking for recommendations. Those are my favorite asks because I am nothing if not in love with my own opinions, lol

Books

Obviously, The Viscount Who Loved Me by Julia Quinn, the best Bridgerton book, because I’ve been blogging about it lol. If you haven’t read it, it’s basically “rake tries to seduce the beauty of the ton, beauty’s older sister cockblocks him, he realizes that He Is Into It”

The Hating Game by Sally Thorne is a classic. Very light and fluffy contemporary, two people who’ve always hated each other begin competing for the same job and fall in love.

Kate Quinn’s Mistress of Rome series is a saga and the initial big ship of the first book (which you do have to read lol) is not enemies to lovers. However, the NEXT ship which dominates the last two books of the series (which is four books long, and tbh... I recommend the second book but it’s a prequel and can be skipped technically) is SOOOOOOO GOOD. It’s really “childhood friends to young lovers to SEVERE ENEMIES still secretly in love” and it’s literally epic lol. Essentially, the series is set in Ancient Rome and Sabina (very bitchy Roman noblewoman) and Vix (child of a former gladiator, soldier) are friends who I think lose their virginities to each other? And are in love as kids. But then she fucks him over and marries the emperor. Who he actually begins to loyally serve! But he haaaates Sabina because she.... constantly backstabs him lol. But he also looooves Sabina and gets off on everything she does. And she wants him so badly. And it is delicious. And I live for it.

Both of the Evie Dunmore books I’ve read, Bringing Down the Duke and especially A Rogue of One’s Own are very enemies to lovers. In Bringing Down the Duke it’s a bluestocking versus a duke who for political reasons is her enemy. In A Rogue of One’s Own it’s another bluestocking versus a rake who has known her basically all their lives. They have to begin working together and fall in looove.

Sarah MacLean LIVES for this trope lol. Her first true enemies to lovers was Twelve Scandals to Start to Win An Earl’s Heart, in which the heroine is a scandalous young woman and the hero is a duke determined to avoid scandal--and he rebuffed her before the book began, so they hate each other. But he also has a massive boner around her, of course.

My favorite MacLean book, A Rogue By Another Name is another “childhood friends turn enemies to lovers”. The leads, Penelope and Bourne (last name lol) were best friends as kid and he basically fell off after life set in. Her family now has hold of his ancestral lands, and Bourne essentially blackmails Penelope into marrying him so that he can get those lands, after which she DESPISES him even though they had..... extremely great sex lol. It’s SUPER GOOD, and it involves borderline voyeurism, which is great.

Then No Good Duke Goes Unpunished is very enemies to lovers. The heroine was set to become the hero’s stepmother--then he woke up covered in blood with her missing. He then finds out, after years of being despised by society as a presumed murderer, that she is very much alive with a fake identity lol. It’s WILD.

The Rogue Not Taken is an enemies to lovers roadtrip romance. The heroine thinks the hero is a horrid rake who purposefully ruins marriages. He thinks she’s a stuck up brat. They end up journeying together and he eats her out in a moving carriage.

Theeen there’s Daring and the Duke. The hero literally thought the heroine was dead (MacLean loves this) and is OBSESSED with her, but she hates him because the man who raised them both basically pitted them against each other after their days of being childhood sweethearts. It’s very dark and delicious, and there are blow jobs! Blow jobs don’t happen enough in romances, especially historical romances. More BJs! They are fun!

If you’re interested in a dark and BONKERS romance, Desperate Measures by Katee Robert is a retelling of Disney’s Aladdin about a modern Jafar and Jasmine getting together after he takes over her father’s criminal empire. It’s definitely extremely explicit and a bit fucked up. The book comes with content warnings; the first sex scene is dubcon. (Like you’re reading from her perspective and she WANTS IT but she says no.)

Beach Read by Emily Henry is a cute contemporary in which the hero is a literary author and the heroine is a romance novelist. They find themselves in neighboring beach houses and basically challenge each other to write in the other person’s genre. Very light enemies to lovers.

A Heart of Blood and Ashes is a fantasy romance by Milla Vane! Essentially, the hero’s parents were killed by the heroine’s father and he’s out to kill her father and overtake his throne. Luckily, she’s on board. But he needs to marry her in order to accomplish his goals. They do not trust each other whatsoever and torment one another a lot. For context, within the first fifty pages she gives him a handjob while her hand is covered in her own brother’s blood (and yes, he did kill her brother). It’s great.

The Worst Best Man is about a wedding planner who suddenly finds herself needing to work with her ex-fiance’s brother... who she holds responsible for her fiance leaving her at the altar. Very fun and sexy contemporary.

The entire Four Horsemen series by Laura Thalassa. In each book, the heroine falls in love with a literal embodiment of one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, who is here to bring the end of the world. VERY heavy enemies to lovers. Kinda dark at times? Kinda fucked up at times? I love it a lot? It begins with Pestilence; War and Famine have already been released, but Death has not.

From Lukov with Love by Marina Zapata. It’s a figure skating romance; a down on her luck skater pairs up with a male skater who is extremely successful, and who she’s known for years and hated. Verrrrry slow burn, but fun.

Movies

The Proposal, of course, starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. You’ve probably seen this, but the setup is that she’s his evil boss, he’s her assistant, and she’s about to lose her visa so she bribes him into marrying her so that she can get citizenship. But ruh-roh, they have to go to Alaska for his family reunion and he’s also got a great body and is like, an Alaskan Rockefeller?

Obviously, Clueless which is enemies to lovers by way of former stepsiblings, and also by way of the only valid retelling of Emma. Emma itself is not enemies to lovers, really, but Clueless amps that aspect up a bit.

If you want a super tragic version, warning lol--House of Flying Daggers. It’s a wuxia movie, so melodramatic to the max. She’s a blind daughter of the leader of a vigilante group, he’s a soldier who’s gone undercover to follow her to their stronghold. Many reveals and one of my favorite dramatic love stories ensues.

Princess Diaries 2, duh. Baby Chris Pine? Anne Hathaway? PLEASE BITCH.

365 DNI. If you haven’t watched yet, watch it and thank me later. The greatest cinematic contribution of the last decade.

Down with Love. It’s a delightful take on like, 50s/60s sex comedies in which the heroine writes a book that convinces women to ignore love and men, which makes the hero look bad and makes it difficult for him to get laid. So he sets out to basically..... wear a different persona? And seduce her? It is one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen, and I adore it. Renee Zellweger and Ewan Macgregor have great chemistry in it too.

The Thomas Crown Affair, starring extremely hot Pierce Brosnan and Renee Russo. She’s an insurance investigator, he’s a billionaire who basically is suspected of stealing priceless works of art because he’s bored. She investigates him and immediately begins fucking him. Has a scene where she dances with him while wearing a completely transparent dress. Then they fuck everywhere in his house. I have never wanted to be between two people more.

The Painted Veil. A socialite marries a dorky scientist for convenience, then cheats on him. He finds out and basically forces her to go to China with him, where he is fighting the cholera epidemic, as an extremely long and petty murder suicide attempt. But they get to know each other! And the ice begins to melt! Warning: tragic but lovely.

Casino Royale YES I SAID THAT. The James Bond reboot movie that explains why he’s such a whore!!! HE WAS BROKEN!!! Basically James Bond is not like... a learned man... in this movie. So he’s a cocky bastard and the Bond girl is impossibly sexy Eva Green as Vesper, who’s the “money man” on his mission. They begin as bickering assholes and then fall in love. But also! Tragedy!

The animated Anastasia movie is one of the finest enemies to lovers movies of any time, I will defend this forever

Anyway.... Hope this gives you some ideas! Lol

do you have any random barzy headcanons you’d like to share with the class?

Um um um this is pretty on the spot, but these are the big main themes I use for him on this blog haha!! Feel free to send me hcs of your own!!!

he is 1000000% the softest fucking boyfriend ever!!! Cutie Pie!!!!

and he loves with everything in him and i mean like he is so so so committed to the relationship, He’s still young, so of course, he’s gonna mess up a little when it comes to love (not by cheating, absolutely not) but he always tries his best and he does amazing

if he’s really serious about you he'd want to keep the relationship on the down-low for a long time.

Maybe even a bit hesitant to introduce you to his lifestyle/ friends because he’s had people take advantage of that before

bet he’s a cute ass mama’s boy who frequently calls his parents (and eventually yours too) and gets along well with his sister (of course along with the teasing that comes with being siblings) and that’s so wholesome

he haaaates to see people sad or crying, like it physically hurts so he always tries to make them feel better, which he's not necessarily the best at but it’s the fact that he’s trying so hard that cheers them up then

he feels really nice to hug/cuddle/hold. His hands?? big and strong and warm. And that hair??? soft af and a lil wavy and cute as shit

and he smells really nice i bet, a scent that's masculine but like not overwhelmingly big tough manly man scent, you know what i mean???? I don’t even know what i mean tbh

he has really animated facial expressions, ya know? so i bet his face moves around a bunch while he’s dreaming

he has a closet full of shoes and half of them look alike but he swears to god their all unique

he'd be really into doing spa/self-care days with his gf. man’s a bitch for some beauty and isn't above taking care of himself. we stan

also this is just an observation: is it just me or does he have like.... reallllly nice lips?? Like in some pictures they look so pretty and plush

feel free to add more random thoughts!!!!

Beneath The Milky Twilight - Jaskier Fluff

Surprise, it's Jaskier x Y/N's turn for a bit of cutesy time! Real talk - The Amazing Devil's new album is beautiful, and Mr. Batey is talented as hell. Anyway, enjoy!

The tavern is crowded, and Jaskier is visibly nervous getting onto the stage. It probably doesn't help matters that you both downed a jug of wine to 'steel his nerves'.

When he begins strumming his lute, you cheer; he glances at you briefly, the anxiety easing as his cheeky smile tugs at his lips.

He plays mostly new material and the crowd has a mixed reaction. Some are here for tales of Geralt, and they're not interested in other songs.

There are those though, like you, who clap and whistle and dance as he plays.

When he's finished, he leaves the stage to the sound of applause; you're ready to congratulate him, but his features are desperately crestfallen. "Jas'?" You query, as he snatches up another jug of wine.

He shoots you a mournful glance and heads outside with the liquor; concerned, you follow.

One cup in, he's ready to decompress. "They haaaated it!" He despairs, pouring more wine, "I worked so hard, and they hated my new works!"

"They did not!" You defend, drinking to match him, "People were dancing, clapping. Sure, there were the Geralt fans--"

"It's not all about him!" The bard flusters, "My music is about life and love, not just about..." He huffs, "Handsome heroes. Gods, that's it, isn't it? I'm not broodingly striking enough. Ugh! Should I grow a beard?"

You laugh, and drain your cup. "You look daft with a beard. I think you're more than handsome, just as you are." The liquor has loosened your tongue, and you don't notice the slip until he's gone silent, regarding you. "...What?"

"You think I'm handsome?" He asks, with the shy neediness that comes from recent rejection. You feel yourself flushing.

"Erm, well I-- you're my best friend, and I..." You clear your throat, and sneak a glance at him, wishing a harpy would fly by and pluck you from your seat, never to be seen again.

But he's staring at you steadily, solemn, the river-blue of his bright eyes soft and so trusting that you can't possibly look away. A moment passes like this, stares entwined, silence, before he slowly leans forward.

You do the same, and when you kiss him it's the easiest thing in the world; he is warm and tastes of sweet wine and chewed mint-leaf, and his clever lips - the source of so many tales and so much talent - are tender, responsive. Both of you are tipsy, and when you weave your fingers into his artfully styled hair he makes a small groan, licking the taste of your mouth, nipping your lower lip, bumping noses clumsily when you try to get closer.

Eventually you part for breath, and his pupils are blown, mouth reddened by wine and your lipstick. You both catch your breath, and he grins.

"I've wanted to kiss you for so very long." He confesses in a rush, and you stroke his jaw with your thumbs.

"And I you." You readily admit, returning his bashful smile.

"So it's not a once-off... 'Jaskier pity performance' kiss?" He asks, hopefully.

You giggle. "You of all people should know that beautiful performances deserve an encore."

He laughs, and draws you close, lips finding your own again as you cuddle.

Inside, the drunken patrons are chattering away over the music of another bard, but outside, the show is magical.

The World Ends With You --- 001

Favorite character: SHO MINAMIMOTO. He is EXACTLY my brand of quirky villain. He's this punk nobody who storms around yelling about how great he is, giving himself a math gimmick and the Dadaist garbage sculptures, and then he decides he wants to fight God, but soon finds out this is a futile endeavor, you fucking idiot, I love you

Least Favorite character: I don't really have bad blood toward anyone in TWEWY right now. I used to HAAAATE Joshua for that ending twist but now I'm like "You sure did get me, you little shit" and also I take KHDDD as a direct sequel to TWEWY, so I like to think he got better, which really was the point implied by the original ending - that Neku's refusal to kill him after everything he'd done proved to him that humanity could surprise him, and now he's just like "Oh, I got ATTACHED to the damn kids from my experiment." Actually, I actively LIKE Joshua now.

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): Sho Minamimoto x Eliza (Skullgirls), Coco Atarashi x Symonne (Tales of Zestiria), Shiku, Beat/Ai, and you know what Sora ships with everyone he touches so let's just add Sora/Neku on here for crack time

Character I find most attractive: MR. MINAMIMOTO

Character I would marry: The Grim Heaper himself. Pi-Face

Character I would be best friends with: LOOK I KNOW SHO IS VERY UNLIKELY TO LIKE ME BUT I WANT TO ATTEMPT IT. Shiki would probably be more open to actual friendship from the get-go though, and I'd want to hang out with both her and Eri because I'm a sucker for background characters with interesting potential but no stage time

a random thought: Uzuki Yashiro has the best outfit in the entire game. Just the best outfit. I would love to cosplay her someday, not because I have any attachment to her whatsoever (I kinda forget about her a lot) but because her blouse is so frickin cute.

An unpopular opinion: I am not optimistic about NEO nor do I think we necessarily needed it

my canon OTP: There isn't much actual romance in this game except Mina/Makoto so you know what? Mina/Makoto is cute and I support it

Non-canon OTP: If I stay out of crossovers this has to be Shiku. Which is weird because I NEVER go that hard for "the main male character gets with the female best friend" but it's cute.

most badass character: Sanae Hanekoma and his "I'm just going to copy the boss forms of not one but TWO of the most powerful characters in the game and you fight them at the same time" schtick

pairing I am not a fan of: Neku/Joshua always makes me feel a little weird because it's built on deception and also Joshua is an adult godlike entity who is probably older than he looks and Neku is a bit young for that for my tastes. But it's not BAD and I see where it comes from. Now, where I'm angry is that I used to be a big fan of Sho Minamimoto/Mitsuki Konishi and I now realize that I was wearing rose-colored glasses and they were just using each other, and MY BOY DESERVES BETTER GOD DAMN IT.

character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): If Sho is a good guy in NEO I'll scream

favourite friendship: LISTEN. We were ROBBED by the lack of screen time between Coco Atarashi and Sho Minamimoto despite her being responsible for his resurrection. Hell, NEO probably is gonna make him resent her or something but I just want him as the evil big bro and her as the evil little sister and they are the Reaper sibs who go dancing down the street singing "That Beautiful Sound" from the B-Ghost musical

character I want to adopt or be adopted by: And if they do, can I be their biggest sister

Like Father, Like Daughter - Part 3

dewey finn x stark!reader

bonour mon petite croissants! okay so like this part is vvv different to the other parts and the ending is really rushed so my apologies. there’s pretty much no dewey in this one its all reader and tony because context and story lmao but it is vvv angsty!!!. sooo i hope you enjoy! also, i tagged you guys because yous have read and commented on the last parts and i hope yous are still liking it lmao lotsa love xxxx

Part 1

Part 2

words - 1800

warnings - alcohol, mentions on drugs, angst

“JARVIS, you up?” Tony questioned his AI as he walked back into the workshop. “for you sir, always”. It was dark and cold in Stark Tower. Tony had been footering around with mark 34 all day, non-stop. He had no idea where his daughter was. In fact you hadn’t spoken in days. It broke his heart but he knew that he needed to wait until you were ready to talk, and the fact that you were both as stubborn as each other didn’t help. As he checked his watch he couldn’t believe the time, 3:20 AM. “yeah, now flip it.. uh huh and push the revolvers up.. more to the left” Tony spoke to JARVIS with a holographic model of mark 34’s chest cavity moving around in front of him.

Suddenly his phone began to ring. “send it to voicemail” he quipped at JARVIS, still spinning the holograph, but the AI hastily responded “uh sir, it’s y/n’s mobile that’s calling you”. “what? Where is she?” he replied worriedly. Tony had a secret tracker on your phone for years and you had never noticed. JARVIS checked and replied “she’s in Katie’s bar sir”. Tony furrowed his eyebrows, folding his arms, expecting some drunken call from his daughter about how much she hated him, “ok answer it”. The AI answered the call and all Tony could hear was the loud, muffled music of the bar.

“hey sweetie how you getting on?” he answered the phone condescendingly, preparing for her shouting and swearing. But the voice he was met with was not his daughters. “uh, hey Mr Stark, it’s Peter, y/n’s friend?”. Tony furrowed his eyebrows again, concern building. “oh hey Pete, everything ok?”. Peter paused for a second. “well uh.. no, not really.” Tony’s heart was racing, his mind spinning and coining the worse scenarios. “I think you may need to come pick up y/n. She’s super messed up, worse than I’ve ever seen her.. and she uh.. she was about to buy.. uh cocaine from these random guys on the streets before we stopped her” Peter replied hesitantly. Tony was furious. Who the hell did you think you were and what the fuck did you think you were doing. He had been down this route before and it was one that he struggled to get out of. The rich and famous lifestyle was not an easy ride, but he would die before he let you fuck up as much as he did when he was your age.

Tony darted toward the door, not even lifting his jacket “uh huh kid, keep her at Katie’s bar, I’ll be there in five”. He didn’t even wait to here what peter had to say. He almost ran out to the Mercedes and drove at a speed that was lethal to get his daughter back and safe in his arms.

* * * * * * *

“yeah well fuck off” you shouted at the bouncer as your friends dragged you out of the bar, stumbling into the back of them. You pulled out of Peter’s grip and slid down the wall to sit on the ground. Your head was spinning. You had consumed a destructive amount of alcohol. You put your head in your hands. “ugh I haaaate my liiife” you almost shouted as your friends stood in front of you, patiently waiting for Tony. Peter bent down and rubbed your knee “you’re fine, y/n, everything will be okay”. You sobbed slightly “n-no it won’t Pete, im.. I’m fucked up”.

Just then was when the jet black Mercedes stopped outside of the bar, the door flinging open. You looked up at the sudden noise of the car acceleration, Peter standing up and thanking the lord that Tony was here. You squinted your eyes as someone got out the car, and then the realisation hit “you dicks called my dad?!?!?” you shouted drunkenly at your friends, who stood in silence. “right, come on.. up you get” Tony said as he attempted to pull you to your feet. To be honest, you didn’t want to protest too much. In your head you didn’t have to speak to your dad, you could just go to your own cosy bed, so you let him pull you to your feet, stumbling into him as you did so.

Your friends stood silent, feeling bad, and severely worried about you. “what has she had?” Tony questioned Peter as he put her in to the front seat of the car. “ugh, tequila, jack, vodka.. honestly a mix of everything”. Tony sighed, shutting the door and ignoring your protests from the car. “ok so just about everything she could lay her hands on? You’ll be the death of me kid seriously” Tony spoke as he walked round to get in the car. “Thanks guys, I’ll let you know how she gets on” he thanked your friends as he drove off.

The car ride home was filled with silence. Tony was too angry, and you were too drunk. You stumbled trying to get out of the car and fell on your knees, Tony went round and helped you up, putting your arm around his shoulder, almost carrying you up to the penthouse.

When the elevator dinged, and you both walked into the living room, you pulled yourself away from him “I don’t need your help”. “uh huh, sure you don’t miss independent. If it wasn’t for me you wouldn’t be here”. You rolled your eyes “I’m away to b-bed” you drunkenly began to attempt to walk towards your bedroom but you swayed and fell into one of pillars. Tony crossed his arms and watched you as you slid along the pillar and attempted to walk without it but couldn’t.

“please to god tell me what Peter told me wasn’t true y/n” Tony began, sternly. “w-well I don’t know? How th-the fuck am I supposed to know what peter told you” you snapped, head spinning. Your eyes were closed, head resting against the pillar. “you know damn right what I’m on about y/n. Cocaine? Random guys in the street? I’ll be damned if I let you ruin your life like that.” Tony lectured you as he went to put on the coffee machine. “well you kn-know what they say dad.. like father, li-like daughter right?” you slurred.

That hurt. This was the last thing Tony wanted to happen, for his daughter to end up like him. He had tried his best on his own, and he was so proud of you, but he just didn’t understand. Was it his fault? He walked out of the kitchen area and looked at you. His heart was shattered seeing you like this. His eyebrows were furrowed, and the hurt was seeping out of his eyes. Once you had locked eyes with him you looked away. You knew you were hurting him but you didn’t know how to help yourself.

You started to tear up. All of your emotions coming to fruition. You bounced very lightly against the pillar as tears began to stream down your face. You still couldn’t look at him. “dad.. w-why am I such a f-fuck up”.

This broke Tony’s heart. He instantly came over to you and pulled you into his embrace, tightly. “no- listen y/n. You could never be a fuck up. Look at everything you’ve achieved. I’m so so so incredibly proud of you sweetheart”. You sobbed into his shoulder as he rubbed you’re back. “y/n I just want you to realise your worth. You’re so beautiful and smart and you deserve the world. I hate seeing you try to drown your sorrows every night and bring home these random dudes. I just wish you’d talk to me”. He stroked your hair and kissed the top of your head.

“why don’t we make a coffee, if you can stomach it, we’ll go lay on your bed and you can talk to me if you’d like, or I’ll just lie with you until you fall asleep?” he pulled you off of him but kept you in his arms. You nodded, sniffling.

Tony took you to your room and sat you on the bed, you still being too drunk to function properly on your own, then went and made you both coffee. He came back in and sat it on your bedside table “this should help with the head in the morning”. He then went to the other side of the bed and laid down, “here, come rest your bones next to me”, he opened his arms and gestured for you to go and cuddle into him. You instantly shuffled over and let yourself relax into your dads embrace. You began to sob. Tony ran his hand through your hair.

“dad, I just feel like I’m not good enough” you managed through your sobs. “now what in your damn mind would make you think that y/N?”

* * * * *

You and Tony spoke all night. It was the first time you had both spoken like that in a long, long time. It broke his heart to hear why you felt the way you did and he would pay endless amount of money, and do anything in the world to help you, but he couldn’t. Eventually you both fell asleep, you had needed to get up a few times to be sick, and your dad was right there for you. He never left your side that night, and hardly slept a wink for fear you would throw up and choke in your sleep.

In the morning you thanked him, and you both made a plan. You had promised you would stop going out as much, and you both promised to spend more time with one another, which meant Tony had to stay out of the workshop more. And as time gradually went on, your relationship got better and better. You would both have coffee in the morning together, you both went to concerts again, and you were both cheeky smart asses to one another. You were a new person. You became more responsible, looked after yourself, stopped hooking up with random guys. You were unrecognisable.

“did you ever get in contact with that guy?” Tony had asked you one day as you were both working on mark 36 in the workshop, “what guy? There was that many” you joked. Tony laughed lightly, “no the one who uh, liked all the guitars remember? Had the cool ACDC t-shirt on?”. Dewey Finn. Suddenly you were taken back. Where the hell was he now? It must have been 4 months since that one night, but you would never forget it. That was one of the best nights of your life. “uh, no.. I don’t know if he would want to meet up really, given the circumstances. He probably hates me”.

But little did you know..

Don’t get me started on people who disrespect Dan Espinoza...

Oh man, actually don’t get me started. There’s so much disrespect for him and I hate it!

Look, Dan has made some seriously messed up choices, we know this. However, there are some things that I hate that fandom does, the main one being erasing his role as Trixie’s father (who, by the way, is Trixie Espinoza, I’m tired of seeing folks tag her as Trixie Decker I’m ngl, it’s yet another erasure of Dan from her life). There are so, so many fics that portray Dan as a douche and - hey, as much as I love Dan, I know that’s not completely far off, but those fics then go on to portray him as a deadbeat dad who seemingly can’t care less about Trixie, and that’s simply not true.

Dan has stated multiple times that he loves Trixie, she’s the reason he doesn’t become completely morally corrupt, like we see in the bonus episode!!! He knows her interests, she clearly loves him, as he explained to Charlotte, he cares about the quality of time he gets with Trixie even though he knows with his job and the divorce that the quantity of time isn’t going to be there as much. And to see people erase that (and Maze!!!! Fics also seem to completely forget that she exists and is Trixie’s best friend!!) to make it be that Trixie’s True Good Dad is Lucifer? I love Lucifer and I love him being a step satan but Trixie can have more than one parent and we don’t need to bash the MOC’s relationship with his daughter to make it so that her “real, good, responsible” parents who know how to actually love her are the white ones, m’kay?

And also the douche part (I’m COMPLETELY pivoting away from the fandom point now) - look, yes, Dan is a douche. Personally, as much as I love him, I also want his redemption to be him going to jail and/or resigning as a cop (I’ll take resigning, bc ik shows with cop characters probably aren’t gonna do that first one, unfortunately), because he is a bad cop to a T and he needs to face consequences for his actions. But gosh, the hate he gets compared to say...Lucifer? Both characters clash a lot and we also see so many backslides from both of them. They take one step forward and three steps back. In both of them, we see characters who are struggling with the thought of being good - Lucifer in that he doesn’t think he can be, and Dan trying to desperately to cling to the thought that he is. And I think both are very cool stories.

Or, if we look at Dan vs Ella. Ella is pretty universally loved, and she shows us that - no it’s not easy to be a good person, but it’s possible, even through the bad times. She holds up a mirror to the good part of humanity, the kind that trucks on no matter what, who takes the opportunity to make the right decision, even if it’s hard. Dan shows us another mirror, but this time, of the struggle to do good things in the face of hard situations, of having that choice and failing while still wanting and attempting to be a good person. I’m not saying one is more realistic than the other, but Dan’s reactions are realistic for a lot of us and I think sometimes people don’t want to admit that they may fall into the Dan camp more than they do the Ella camp. It isn’t easy for Ella to be who she is, but it’s easy for us to love her because ultimately, she always makes the right choice. We can be frustrated by Lucifer, but he’s our protagonist and we have an insight into him more than other characters. It’s easier to root for them, to forgive them when they have pitfalls.

Dan doesn’t have that, he’s a character who started off being well, a douche. And you know what? Dan also has that knowledge and that struggle and we see that there is potential there. In the first season he takes accountability for his actions (it’s the department that doesn’t punish him, and I still think he should face consequences and I haaaate that he probably won’t, but he was willing), he fights against Azrael’s blade and admits fault for his actions - something Lucifer said was surprising for a human - he is Amenadiel’s only human friend, he was the Goddess’s favorite human. Dan is struggling, and god he is frustrating, but he’s also shown real, genuine potential and real self-awareness for his actions even when he backslides, and I think to just write him off as a douche while not necessarily inaccurate also just barely scratches the surface of what his character could represent and how beautiful a true, genuine quest to be good is.

send me “don’t get me started on” + a random topic and i‘ll answer with a rant about it

“Got My Ion You”

pairing: Spider-man/peter parker x reader

genre: flufff

warnings: none :)

Request?

word count: 2.6k

A/n: tbh i got this idea while i was cleaning my room. so idk if it even makes sense and i haaaate itttt also this is the longest one shot fic i’ve ever written lord help me

—————————————————————————————————-

You looked up from your homework, chewing on the end of your pencil lightly. It was a habit that you had never been able to let go, but you claimed it helped you “think better”. You eyes narrowed in on your best friend who was currently lounging next to you on his phone.

“Hey Pete.” The brunette looked over at you, eyes wide with a puzzled expression.

“Exactly how does being on your phone help you with studying for finals?” You questioned him jokingly. After all, he was the one who had begged you to come over and study claiming that he couldn’t focus alone.

“I already know all the material.” He shrugged, going back to scroll through his feed.

Your eyebrows bumped together and confusion. “Then why did you beg and plead to come study with me?”

“Is there a problem with me wanting to hang out with my best friend since second grade?” He questioned you innocently, rolling onto his stomach. He placed his head on his palms and blinked at you with puppy eyes.

Okay, you had to admit he had a point. The two of you were practically inseparable. From spending almost everyday together or on video call to constantly texting, you almost considered him your brother.

Almost.

See, you happened to have a rather huge crush on none other than Peter Parker. You’d started having feelings for him nearly two years ago, and assumed that the butterflies would die in a few month. But you were wrong...so wrong.

The butterflies had seemed to multiply and now you were in love with the curly haired, starry-eyed, beautiful boy whom you called your friend...and nothing more.

But there was nothing you could do to fix your problem. You risked a lot by telling him about your feelings. Peter wasn’t the type to stop being friends with you just because you liked him, but you didn’t want to ruin things and make it awkward.

It was cliche, you knew that. But this was real life. Things don’t work like those movies and books do...right?

What you didn’t know is that Peter wasn’t much better off that you. He had liked you since, well, you first met him. He had just never said anything due to the same reasons you had.

That and recently Peter had started having a growing attraction to someone he could never tell you about in a million years.

You shook your head, coming back to reality, and rolled your eyes at him. “What are you doing anyway?”

He showed the screen of his phone to you before moving it back. “Reading science pick up lines.” He said, as if the pastime was completely normal.

“Oooooh~ Peterrr wanna tell me about her?” You cooed, mimicking a basic highschool girl while moving closer to him.

“Nahhh.” He rolled over onto his side so his back was facing you. “Don’t think I will.”

You’d be a liar if you didn’t admit that you’re heart dropped for a second. But how could you not expect him to have a crush on someone else. Honestly you were surprised he didn’t even have anyone in the first place considering how beautiful and perfect he was.

You didn’t reply, only going back to study your notes. Your answer being in the form of the sound of you writing.

“Do you wanna hear one?” His soft voice asked after a few seconds of silence.

You signed and slowly nodded without looking up, but you could just tell he was beaming at the moment.

“Ok ok... So. My love for you is like the universe.” You raised an eyebrow at him. “Never ending!”

His face almost made you laugh, but just for the spite of it, you kept a straight face and slowly shook your head in fake disapproval.

“Not feelin it?”

“Try another one, Champ.” You rolled your eyes, a tiny smile pulling at your lips.

“Fine.” He sighed, scrolling through his phone for another second before glancing at you. “Do you like science? Cuz i’ve got my ion you.”

The joke was bad enough, but Peter, being the little shit he is, added a wink into the mix. To avoid blushing madly from the tiny gesture, you picked up a pillow and threw it at him as hard as possible.

“What the—Ouch!” He flailed off the bed, exaggerating his pain and rolled around on the floor. “Oh i’m wounded!” He groaned before picking the same weapon up and chucking it back at you.

You ducked, missing his attack completely. You smiled widely at him, holding up two middle fingers innocently.

“You’re the worst.” You rolled your eyes, a tiny giggle still detectable in your voice. “You and your pick-up lines.”

“Hey, I’m just warming up.” Peter sat up, pushing the messy curls from his eyes. “You must be a 90 degree angle because to me, you look just right.”

“PETER!” You yelled, once again chucking the pillow back at him. This time however, you were giggling at his stupid self. It wasn’t long before he too joined you as a laughing mess. All which was music to your ears.

~•~

The next day was an absolute roller coaster for you. It started out like any normal day, but after getting an Avengers alert in the middle of AP Chem, things got a little crazy.

That would be your third unexcused absence that week. If you kept your side job up, your mother would start to wonder what you were doing instead.

Of course it wasn’t your fault, it was either get perfect attendance or save the world. You chose the latter.

Stumbling out of school, you ran into a abandoned alley way and began hurriedly stripping out of your school clothes, revealing the slightly armored spandex suit that was hidden beneath. You shuffled through your bag, pulling out the black, red, and silver mask.

You stuffed your school back in its normal hiding spot before running down the alley, failing to notice the webbed (in plain sight) backpack also there.

“Hey. F.R.I.D.A.Y.?” You tapped your temple.

“Yes, Ms. L/N?” The automated voice responded.

“Pick me up.”

“Already on it, look behind you.” You glanced over your shoulder, smiling under your mask as your similarly colored motorcycle approached from behind.

Doing a backflip at exactly the right moment, you landed perfectly on the seat of your ride. Gripping the handles, your sped up, moving faster towards the indicated spot on your mask’s digital map.

“Incoming call from: Spider-Man.” You raised your eyebrows at the notification but told F.R.I.D.A.Y. to answer it.

“Hey Webhead!” You greeted your partner. Without the original Avengers around to protect Manhattan, the two of you had become the next generation. The dynamic duo. Partners in fighting crime. “How’s downtown looking?”

You heard incoherent sarcastic mumbling before getting a reply. “Looks like a giant mechanic thingy.”

“Thingy? Very professional.”

“—Shut up. You’re late anyway.”

You swerved hard around a truck, leaning in order to make it in time before oncoming traffic reached you. “Sorry we live in Manhattan. Traffic isn’t always ideal.” You rolled your eyes at your partner.

“Wanna take the high route?” You could hear the ‘thwip’ sound of his webshooters, knowing that he was already in his way.

You didn’t reply, just ended the call and gave F.R.I.D.A.Y a quick command. “Hey take over for me, will you?”

“Of course.”

You let go of the handle bars, raising one arm, knowing your spider-friend wasn’t far away.

A gloved hands clasped your semi-covered one and pulled you into the air.

“Yoink!” You looked up at the hero, knowing that he was grinning behind his mask.

“Really? Every time?” Your mask’s eyes narrowed at him in faux disapproval.

He shrugged, using the momentum of swinging to pull you up against his body. You wrapped your arms around his neck, allowing him to let go of you and use both hands to swing through the city. You could feel his heart beat, and it was racing. You could only assume he was nervous about the fight; you were too.

The two of you were close, fighting crime together for almost a year now was one of the factors. However, you didn’t really know who he actually was.

It was a promise you both made when you signed up for the job. You weren’t gonna let your personal lives get mixed with your hero lives. It was sensible, but it didn’t keep you from wondering what he looked like under than mask. You’d be naive to assume he never thought the same.

Not long after, the two of you were standing on a rooftop, watching as the giant mechanical monster worked it’s way towards the heart of Manhattan.

You breathed out an exasperated breath as you watched it. “Hydra again?”

Spider-Man crossed his arms across his chest and shrugged. “I’m assuming so. Looks tougher than last time though.”

“Don’t be a whimp.” You shrugged, attempting to mask the worry in your own voice. “You ready to go, Spidey?”

He looked from you, to the machine, then back to you. “Ready as I’ll ever be.” He held out his hand, ready for your famous handshake.

You smiled, following his lead before jumping into action.

~i can’t write fight scenes help~

Nearly two hours later, you sat on the same rooftop from before as a bruised, sweaty, and bloody mess. You could feel the wounds healing due to your healing factor, but it hurt none the less.

Spider-man has dropped you off (per your command) and was dealing with the clean up and press. but you expected him to be back at any moment.

As if he had heard your thoughts, the masked web-slinger showed up. He landed on the rooftop, his body language showing how exhausted he really was.

He stumbled over to you, sliding down the same half wall you rested against.

“Back from the red carpet?” You quipped, trying to control your heaving breathing.

“Har. Har.” He mock laughed, placing a hand over the burned scar on his abdomen while wincing.

He glanced at you, one of his fiberglass eye-lenses was cracked, giving you the first look at his real eyes you had ever seen. But there was something else, the tiny part of his cheek you could seen was...pink? Was he blushing?

You shook your head. No, of course not. He was probably just worn out.

But his eyes didn’t leave your figure. They were searching you, even though most of your face was covered (except for the parts now exposed from cuts and burns).

But there was something familiar about those eyes. Something that you couldn’t put your together due to your hazy, tired mind.

Your partner seemed to be thinking something similar as you. But he gave up, resting his head back against the wall and sighed heavily.

“Hey.” He breathed, not looking at you. You didn’t verbal reply, just looking at you with tired eyes. “Do you like science?”

You raised you eyebrow, mouth moving to open as you finally began to piece two and two together.

“Cuz I’ve got my ion you.” Laughing breathlessly at his joke, the hero attempted to lighten the mood. the effort caused him to wince several times during the process.

“Wha...what the?” You slowly sat up, eyes widening. “Peter..?”

The visible eye widened in shock. “Uh, uh.” He cleared his throat, lowering his voice. “What are you talkin—“ You pulled off you mask, eyes still wide with surprise. “Y/N?!!”

Spider-man reached up and pulled up off his own mask, his eyes nearly as wide as yours.

There sat your childhood best friend, bruised from battle, with his mouth hanging wide open.

“How can this be?” He asked, his voice going an octave higher as he stuttered. “My best friend is also my hero partner? That’s crazy, i mean, what are the chances of that? And to think I stopped liking you because i thought i had no chance and I started liking your alter ego—wait, shit.” He covered his mouth with his hands.

“Peter...?” Leaning towards him, your voice fell to just barely above a whisper. “You like...me?”

“Well I...” He glanced at you and pushed back his messy curls from his forehead. “Yes...I like you. I’ve liked you ever since we met.” He admitted sheepishly.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” You asked softly, already knowing the reason.

“Because...you just seemed so out of my league.” He glanced down at his hands, fidgeting nervously with the webshooters. “You’re amazing, sweet, kind, and absolutely beautiful. Plus we have such an amazing friendship I—“ He took a deep breath when you placed your own hand over his, slowly interlocking them.

He looked up at you, a sudden wave of boldness washing through his veins. “—I don’t wanna just be your friend.”

His free hand moved up to cup your cheek; his eyes glanced from your eyes to your lips. “I want to be more.” He breathed.

You didn’t reply, your actions speaking for you as you leaned closer to him.

“Can I..?” Peter asked, unsure suddenly as doubts began to flood his mind.

You could tell he was about to say something else, but before he could say anything, you gently pressed your lips against his.

And suddenly a beautiful feeling washed over you. Those butterflies you had been holding onto seemed to burst into freedom. Your lips moved in sync, like they were made to be together.

Peter’s hands found your hips naturally, holding onto you as if you were his lifeline. You hands wrapped around his neck, fingers twirling gently in his soft hair.

Pulling back for hair, your chests heaved, but you kept your forehead pressed against his.

“Hey Pete?” You asked softly.

He hummed in response, face still red and heart pounding.

“I think...I love you.” You whispered now only a few centimeters from his lips.

Peter’s heart skipped a beat when you said those words. Those magical words he never thought he would hear you say. He bit his lips, savoring the sound of you saying it play over and over in his mind.

“Can you..” He hesitated. “Can you say that again?”

Your eyebrows bumped together as you leaned back to get a better look at him. “I love you?”

Like a giddy middle school girl, he fell backwards, nearly giggling from all the emotions that were coursing through him.

“Oh my god, Y/N!” He laughed, covering his face with his hands before jumping up.

“I love you. I love you. I love you!” He laughed, forgetting all previous pain. You looked at him, smiling at how genuinely happy he was. He reached a hand out to you, pulling you up.

He twirled you around, causing you to giggle at his pure reaction to the event. Coming back in from the twirl, you wrapped your arms around his torso, hugging him tightly.

He laughed softly, resting his head in the crook of your neck, beaming like a little kid in a candy store.

“Are you less than 90 degrees?”

“Peter, don’t you dare—“

“Cause you’re acute girl!” He laughed, and you pushed away from him, punching his chest (lightly of course). He laughed, giving you the biggest grin possible. “You know you love me.” He smirked, winking at you.

You blushed, shaking your head as you crossed your arms. “Yeah..” You huffed. “Yeah I love you..”

You smiled at each other, getting lost in the magic of the night.

All we can hope for now...

So, I know that there are still people who have hope that somehow...someway, D&D are gonna pull a ‘Jaime lives’ scenario outta their ass. I wish I had their optimism. But I don’t. (if not I’ll gladly eat my words....) Nikolaj said Jaime’s last scene was beautiful and though I hated it and I definitely think Nikolaj hated that his story ended up this way, I can imagine him thinking the scene with him and Lena was beautiful. So maybe he liked the scene but HATED the ending and all that.....(Lena didn’t particularly like it either apparently and I get her, a villain like Cersei deserved a much better death than that...) He also said his final scene FILMING WISE was in a beautiful location (Ballycastle) and with a person he’s not really filmed with before. (I’m guessing Euron, even though they have filmed together I’m assuming Nik meant one on one) It all adds up.

I haaaate that it all adds up, trust me. urgh. All we can hope for now is that we get some scenario where Brienne finds some kind of peace with it. I’m hoping Bran or someone lets Brienne know that Jaime did love her and that there was a part of him that was happy and that wanted to stay with her but that he felt he wasn’t a good man and he’d never be able to let it go. At least this way Brienne knows that Jaime did love her. It sucks. It’s not what we wanted...and I’ll still never be able to forgive them for what they did to both of them but at least she’ll know and audiences will know that he LOVED her. Him leaving has nothing to do with her or her being unlovable. It’s alllll him (and by him I mean D&D because as we know..... none of this makes sense at all) Even if they do this... they still killed Jaime’s character arc though. But... at least it’s something :(

Recently someone asked you what you think about the Sakamaki, and now I would like to ask you what do you think about the Mukami and Tsukinami. I really like your views on the characters, so I hope you do not mind my question. ^^

Well, overall I am really not a fan of any of the Mukamis (＞＜).

Not only did they fail to make me fall for them, I failed to understand their role in the story. I mean, there’s no reason for them to have been a part of the Adam and Eve plan since they never could be Adam anyway. So what was the point??? To make the Sakamaki’s jealous so that they fell for Yui??? Well they already made each other jealous! They didn’t need the Mukamis for that???

So yeah I just kinda always scratch my head at their existence in the story at all.

But, regardless here is my individual opinion of them:

Ruki: I freaking love Ruki’s voice. His was the first I heard of the Mukamis and omg. He oozes dominance and arrogance and apathy. For all the Mukamis, I listened to their MB drama CDs first, and Ruki’s is fantastic. He is so frightening: a total manifestation of calm control and power. And he holds you over the edge of a tower by your throat to prove it. But even when he starts to lose control by the smell and taste of your blood, he maintains a sexy, domineering air about him. Plus, his character design fits his voice so well. I mean look at him ಠoಠ:

However, his route in the MB game is another story.

I was enjoying his route since he was just as domineering and frightening as his drma CD. But when he killed the stray kitten that Yui was taking care of, I immediately lost all desire for him and wanted to stab him in the eye because he didn’t just kill the poor thing, he removed its fucking soul.

I mean what the fuck Rejet?!

I was disgusted with him and refused to finish his route after that. As much as I enjoyed his CD, I can’t really listen to it anymore without getting pissed about the kitten all over again 😡😡

Yuuma: I salivate over Yuuma’s character design (•ω•)

I don’t normally like big guys irl, but his long hair and well-toned body make big guys in anime totally acceptable 👍👍 A++. I’m not a fan of his accent and the way he speaks, but his voice itself is still quite (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

His MB drama CD was amazing. I’ve listened to it soooo many times. He kidnaps you quite roughly, basically just grabbing you off the street as you try to run from him. But instead of taking you to Ruki like he is supposed to, he decides to take you to his own special cabin that no one knows about. He is rough and dominant and sadistic. You try to fight back and run, but he holds you down and cuts your clothes off with a knife.

Yeah, it’s great 😁😁

But I haaaated his game route. I like rough and sadistic, but I draw the line at a wife beater. Punching and kicking a girl is not ok with me, especially with a vampire as large as he is with a human girl as small as Yui.

No. Just no.

So when Yui started to fall for him after he did all that, I got pissed. Really pissed. In HDB, Yui would recognize that the feelings she had for the vampires were wrong and she would usually try to fight the feelings before eventually succumbing to them as her mind became twisted and masochistic. In Yuuma’s route, that didn’t happen. They ended up in this happy, romantic ending without any of that. And I was just sickened. Not only did it make zero sense, but it romanticized some serious abuse.

I didn’t bother playing his other endings after that. But I am at least still able to enjoy his drama CD, unlike Ruki.

Kou: I listened to Kou’s drama CD once. Just once.

I’m a masochist, so I like fear and pain. But holy shit did Kou pass my limits. He tortures you, ripping open bite marks over and over.. and the sound effects are just … Nope Nope Nope. Not for me.

I am not a fan of his fake happy go lucky voice either. I prefer controlled and dominant voices. His voice drops can be rather frightening though, but also hard to hear as he tends to whisper them under his breathe. His emotional flips are similar to Laito, but Kou’s are a lot more frequent.

I haven’t played Kou’s route though because I know that he is enormously emotionally manipulative and psychologically abusive – and that is very triggering for me. Laito is very emotionally manipulative too, but I’ve heard that Kou takes it much farther, and I just haven’t been motivated to play him because of that. His character design does nothing for me either (＞＜)

Asuza: @cpt-trips is trying to get me to fall in love with him lol. But I haven’t listened to his drama CD yet. And I haven’t played his route. I just… Can… Not… Handle…. His…. Voice…. And… His… Slow… Speaking. I will try for her sake though. Hopefully soon lol.

Onto the Tsukinamis.

I have not played their routes (though I’ve read a few translations and discussed them with people who have played their routes). However, I have definitely listened to several of their drama CDs. I think their storylines make a hell of a lot more sense than the Mukamis, so I’m looking forward to playing their routes once I get Dark Fate.

But here’s my opinion of my experiences of them so far:

Shin: OMFG. Shin’s voice.

I loved this seiyuu as Shikamaru in Naruto so when I heard him as Shin, I flipped out. He is wonderfully terrifying as Shin. He is all out of fucks to give and will not hesitate to hurt you. And he let’s you know it very quickly. He has a voice drop too, one that is used very rarely but it will send shivers down your spine.

I’m not a fan of the combination of glasses and an eyepatch though. I think that looks rather ridiculous. They should have just left it with the eye patch. But his hair and eyes are 👍😍

Carla: Ok I looove his character design. He’s so goddamn pretty. That beautiful hair and those eyes. Jesus Christ those eyes.

But…. his voice just ruins it for me! It doesn’t fit his design AT ALL! He sounds like a 50 year old grouchy man and I don’t find it sexy whatsoever! 😭😭

I have tried, I really have, to get adjusted to his voice because I like how mean and sadistic he is. And I think I’d enjoy his DF route. But no matter how many times I listen to his drama CDs, I just get totally turned off by his voice. I really don’t know if I’d be able to handle his route lol.

So yeah.., those are my thoughts on them. You won’t see me reblog things involving the Mukamis or Tsukinamis too often because, overall, I enjoy the Sakamakis so much more, so I tend to just immerse myself in everything that has to do with them.
