Lucifer Morningstar x Reader Romance Headcanons
Some very random and very silly little headcanons about being in a relationship with the King of Hell, and likely the beginning of many more as I learn how to write for this darling cartoon that has consumed my entire brain.
Tumblr media
- He's one of the greatest flirts of all time, but with one enormous caveat: he has no ability to consciously flirt with anyone he's interested in. Quips and charming smiles come easy when he wants to banter with friends or taunt a foe, but when he starts to get feelings for you and actually attempts to be smooth, everything falls apart. All traces of his grace, power, and quick wit evaporate the instant he pulls his first move, and it only worsens the more flustered he becomes. His first attempt goes so badly that by the end more than a few things are on fire, and neither of you is entirely sure how. Thankfully, your receptiveness despite the disasters will build his confidence; and while he's never quite as smooth as when he's not trying, he does learn to make use of his charms whenever the moment calls for it.
- While at first he'll keep your relationship on the extreme down low, to the point of avoiding public dates and shows of affection, this is only so he can take the time to be sure you know and can fully agree to what you're getting into. Dating Lucifer Morningstar comes with a great many risks that don't ever go away, and he needs you to understand that while he'll do anything to keep you safe, your life will change forever once word gets out. The people of Hell are going to want to know all about their King's new lover, and he has more than a few enemies on multiple planes of existence you'll have to be wary of. As soon as he's convinced you're aware of the risks and accept them regardless, be prepared for him to make up for lost time and then some. He wants to take you on dates to Hell's most premier establishments, to have you on his arm for every single public appearance, and to proudly and boldly declare you to be his love whenever the opportunity presents itself.
- Genuine compliments go a long way with this man. Though he's got a very healthy sense of pride, he still very much enjoys praise, to the point of nearly giddy delight if he gets it from someone he's crushing on. This goes double if you catch him off guard. Expressing your awe when he unceremoniously summons a mundane item out of thin air will fluster him far more readily than even the most lascivious of flirtations, and he'll be riding the emotional high for the better part of a week. Praising his appearance has an even greater impact, and nothing puts a spring in his step quite like hearing how much you like his hair.
- Touch is one of his preferred love languages, second only to gifts and song. He likes to give as much as he does to receive, but as he's a little starved for affection, you'll find him very disproportionately affected by even the most chaste contact. The first time you try looping your arm through his, laying a hand on his shoulder, and even brushing up to his side he'll be deliriously happy. Once the gates are open, however, you can expect him to start initiating and upping the ante quite rapidly. He'll start taking your hand when it's available, cupping the small of your back as you walk at his side, and even pulling you in with his wings for a feathery embrace, and he doesn't stop there. Eventually, if you're amicable, he'll gladly offer his lap anytime you need a seat. This goes double if you're in public.
- Giving gifts is one of his favorite ways to express affection, but he doesn't just do so willy nilly, even if anything you could ask for will be provided in a heartbeat. Rather, he likes to surprise you by gifting something that you didn't even know you needed, and will spend a great deal of time noting what you need help with and drafting ideas to meet that need until he has the perfect solution. Being a craftsman with eons of experience and angelic powers means he can construct anything in the realm of imagination, and he'll use his skills to tune his creation to your particular tastes. All of this is done in secret to ensure you're surprised when he finally presents his creation. No matter how many hours he spends laboring over these gifts, your surprise and joy always makes it all worth it in the end.

silly lil wally things :) Wally Darling x Reader
this is a list of my wally fics. these can be read as oneshots, although they are also written to be readable as a series, including specific nods towards prior fics and such. although it is not necessary, it is highly recommended to read them in the following order. enjoy!!
snorrrk mimimi - When you wake up in the morning, something is different…
paint me like one of your french girls - You weren’t the best painter, nor were you the best at picking up hints…
alone with you - You and Wally sneak away for a breath of fresh air, providing the perfect opportunity to try to get your feelings off your chest.
the plan - Wally, desperate to get you to pick up on his feelings for you, sits down to try and sort out a plan with his wingmen.
late night confessions - The phone ringing late at night allows opportunity to come knocking.
sleepy phone call - You find yourself unable to fall asleep, leading you to call Wally in the late hours of the night.
promise - Wally convinces you to sleep over for the night.
kiss farewell - After a night spent at Wally's, he walks you home.
town gossip - News spread quickly about you and Wally, but what actually are you?
first date - Wally asks you out in a date, but little does he know.
alone with you, take two - Jealousy isn’t a frequent feeling for Wally, but sometimes, things get on his nerves.
(done.)
these can also all be found on my ao3.
I have a ko-fi as well, if you would like to support me!!
thank you so much to everyone for your support on my works so far. i truly, deeply appreciate everything. it means the world to me, as do you <3 have a wonderful day!!

God that wing care was so good. I love this warlock Tav scenario. I hope you write more of them in the future. Thank you for your work!
Thank you kindly, dear anon, and everyone else for your sweet responses to the ‘Wing Care’ bit.
You know, you are the second person to suggest a continuation of this and when writing it I honestly did not even think that there could be more to this little ficlet but I am very willing to provide. Thanks for the inspiration and giving me opportunity to return to these two yet again.
So here is a part deux for you all who enjoyed the first one. I hope this will serve your ‘pampering the devil’ needs once more.
Tumblr media
You arrived home satisfied at a job fulfilled. And fulfilled quite well you might add, granting you the opportunity in feeling pride at your skill as a warlock and an excellent debt collector, the bane of negligent contractors. Raphael was lucky to have taken you under his wing. You smiled at the memory of your meeting in the Devil’s Den. The fiend had been obviously pleased at you taking care of his… damaged goods. It was easy to tell by the way he had been so eager to quickly fill you in on your assignment, the intended reason of his visit.
Now that that had been dealt with you could finally indulge in some relaxation of your own and let yourself fall onto your bed, legs dangling down by the side since you still had your boots on. You shifted to untie the laces when suddenly your gaze fell upon your desk at the edge of your chambers. On it you could spy a parchment and something that looked like a small vial that had not been there when you’d left this morning.
With a sigh you got up again, unable to quench your curiosity. Upon closer inspection you immediately recognised your master’s elegant scrawl:
I HOPE your assignment went well and that my unfortunate debtor has been dealt with accordingly and as I should expect of a warlock in my services. It just so happens that I require them again. As soon as possible. Be sure to bring the vial with you.
See you soon
R
You squint your eyes at the letter. What could Raphael possibly want now? He did have other warlocks at his disposal, why yet again pester you with more work? After you handling his bruised wings with such care you at least expected him to be a bit more negligent with you with any further missions.
Returning the parchment to your desk again you took a closer look at that vial. Turning it around in your hands you spied a small label attached to the glass. Your Infernal could still use some work but you were sure the text read ‘massage oil’.
The portal took you straight to the House of Hope. Raphael was already awaiting you in the entrance hall.
‘Ah. My dutiful little warlock. How considerate of you to aid my call so soon.’ He spread his hands out wide in welcome. As well as his wings.
You were delighted to see they had returned to their former glory. By the Nine, did the devil heal up fast. Even for a cambion.
As usual you bowed to him respectfully. ‘When my master beckons I answer.’
‘And how wise of you to do so,’ he said. ‘I presume our heedless and pitiful customer has been taken care of?’
‘Just as you wished, Raphael. Yet another poor unfortunate soul added to your gory collection.’
He beamed at you. ‘Good. All the better to move on to your next task with haste. How is your Infernal these days?’
‘Well enough to have read the label on this.’ You held up the vial containing the oil. ‘Although the meaning behind it still escapes me.’
The devil threw you a conspiratorial smirk. ‘Be a good little mouse and make a clever guess.’
‘Well, this is far from the ointment I applied to your wings the other day. And I can see they are bereft of any fissures tonight. Do you want me to force this down some other contractor’s throat to leave them unable to escape a terrible curse of their bowels?’
Raphael chuckled. ‘No, you silly goose,’ he said with amusement. ‘By your enthralling display of care in Sharess’ Caress I’ve come to the realisation that I have been quite negligent of my own comfort and welfare lately. I don’t allow myself to indulge myself as often as I should. After all, you do want your sweet master to stay healthy and vigorous to take care of you, don’t you?’ And he tilted his head questioningly.
‘So,’ you began carefully. ‘You want me to do what now? Do it again but this time make it a proper massage?’
Now Raphael frowned at you and you could feel yourself tensing up at your patron’s patience wearing thin. ‘Is that not far better than sending you out through the mud and undergrowth of a stinking swamp? You should know that the next debtor on my list is quite the hermit.’ He examined his nails languidly. ‘But I guess if the prospect of spending time with me – taking care of your master is such trouble I might as well draft you a map of his abode in just a minute.’
You quickly threw your hands up in defense. ‘No, no, no,’ you said, throwing him a disarming smile. ‘I apologise, Raphael. It’s no trouble at all. I’m just surprised is all.’
His eyes roamed over you, still sparkling with skepticism. ‘Mhmm. All right. Then follow me.’
Raphael led you to his boudoir. You had never been invited inside. Before you unveiled the most lavish bed chambers one could imagine. The middle of the enormous room hosted a steaming bath which the devil approached. Quite obviously he wanted to take the same approach as last time, sitting down together at the edge of the pool while you would work your magic on his wings. Confidently you followed the steps of your patron but came to a sudden stop when he went to remove his belt. With a snap of his fingers his doublet and shirt followed suit. And so it was that the devil you had sworn your loyalty to stood right in front of you, upper body laid bare for you to worship.
‘I figured since you don’t have any fissures and bruises that need taking care of tonight I might offer you some more playroom.’
How very kind of him.
Raphael sat down and pat the space next to him. You heeded his unspoken instruction.
‘Well,’ he said. ‘Do you have everything you need?’
‘Um, yes,’ you said. ‘Only… Where… Where would you like me to start?’
‘Oh, I find myself to be just a little tense in the neck and shoulders. Why don’t you start there and work your way further down, hmm, little mouse?’
‘All right.’ You removed the cork from the vial he’d left you and poured a good bit of the liquid onto your hand, then put the container carefully aside, mindful to not knock it right into the water next to you. Smearing your hands thoroughly with the oil you began to wonder at this admittedly ridiculous situation you had found yourself in. Taking care of your master’s wounds had been an act made out of duty, and Raphael had been so opposed to the idea when you had first suggested it that it now seemed almost dubious of him wanting to return to this scenario again, and so soon at that.
Oh, well. The whims of the infernal, you thought to yourself, then put your hands to your master’s back.
You hadn’t thought it possible but Raphael’s shoulders were indeed quite tense. The way he always carried such an air of confidence about him there had not been a doubt in your mind that his limbs would be more slackened. How he continued to prove you wrong tonight.
Oil coated hands brushed over his warm skin and you let your fingers dig into the parts from where his strong shoulders protruded, massaging him in a way that was a blend of firm and gentle. The sigh coming from the cambion told you it was the perfected mixture.
‘Yes,’ he said, encouraging you on. ‘That feels good. Don’t stop with the shoulder just yet.’
Continuing your attention at his desired spot you could not help but ask: ‘Say, Raphael. I am quite flattered that you would invite me to… do this for you, but I cannot help but wonder why. Why me?’
Of course you knew about his incubus. Raphael knew that you knew. ‘Haarlep is not nearly as talented in the arts of pleasure as they’d have you believe. No, anything that goes beyond one’s carnal needs is out of their expertise. Big hands and claws? No, thank you. This is much better.’
You beamed when Raphael practically purred as your palm found its way towards the back of his neck, rubbing it with care. The oil was dripping and you were in need of replenishment but barely dared to remove your hands from him. Truth be told – with Raphael nothing short from a moaning mess, this massage had turned into quite the sensual ordeal.
‘I’m gonna need some more lotion,’ you said apologetically. ‘Your skin is so warm it pretty much turns the oil into thin air.’
The devil said nothing, patiently waiting for you to reapply the liquid to your loving palms and continue. When you put your hands back onto your master an odd little smile flitted across your lips, satisfied at having him so pliant under your touch.
‘There is nothing that could make me keep you from doing whatever that magic is.’
You bit your tongue wanting to tell him this is what the dirty mortals he thought so beneath him called basic affection, not wanting to risk an outburst of temper and saddened at the thought that he truly just might be unaware.
Finally you moved onto the base of his wings, lovingly curling your thumbs around them, then moving over to massage the joints of his left wing once more.
‘It is incredible how well you’ve healed up. There’s not a bruise to be seen.’
‘My dear, us devils do have a knack for this kind of stuff, you know?’ He paused. ‘Although, I do believe I also have you to thank for it. In parts, of course.’
You thought back on the battles of his youth he’d told you about and wondered if there had been someone there for him too. Taking care of him. This time you dared to breathe your musings to him: ‘Has anyone else done this for you before?’
Raphael was silent again, and for a moment you thought he would simply refuse to answer. Then he gave away a quiet ‘No,’ quickly followed by ‘Just be careful with the skin there, yes? It is a little sensitive still.’
With the tips of your nails you gently caressed the membrane. The wing twitched. But this time not from pain. Maybe Raphael was a bit ticklish?
‘Where did you learn all this?’
‘Well, I have given massages before, you know? Never to someone with wings, mind you. I’m just doing what I think would feel nice.’
‘It does,’ Raphael said. ‘It does feel nice.’
You smiled to yourself again, proud that you could lend him your services as more than a warlock. As you moved on to his right wing you could feel something wrap around your ankle. It was his tail! Holding you tight. Was this something that happened unconsciously with devils? You could not imagine your patron showing his appreciation for your ministrations like that.
Deciding to give it no further thought because you could feel your cheeks blushing you poured out the rest of the massage oil into your palms and went to rub it all over Raphael’s back, eliciting the most delightful groan from your devil. You went on stroking, caressing, and kneading his skin until your hands were all but dry, then you finally removed them from him.
‘Well,’ you said. ‘I guess that’s the rest of the oil.’
The cambion quickly removed his tail from your ankle as if awakening from a strange dream and turned towards you. ‘I’ll make sure to get a bigger bottle next time.’
He drew his hand closer to your face, and lightly brushed his claw along your jaw. ‘Thank you, little mouse. If you should ever find yourself tensed up yourself I might be generous enough to return the favour.’

Heya! We recently got back into the arcana after having distanced for a few years, and I have been playing Muriel's route.
Well I fell in love again, along with a lot of our system, and we were wondering, if you could use the prompt of "M6 finds out MC is a system" or something like that? If you in have trouble finding information that can help, looking up DID can help get a good grip on systemhood!
If you don't feel comfortable with that I have a back up since we do want to suggest a prompt "M6 reacts to MC age regressing" if you haven't done that? I'd imagine Lucio's would be absolutely amazing and hilarious.
The Arcana HCs: When MC Age Regresses
~ @selfcarecollective I went with the age regression prompt, if only because that's something I'm a bit more familiar with! I hope you enjoy these ^.^ - brainrot ~
-- for writing purposes, MC is age regressing in their shared space with the M6 because they feel safe and supported enough to do so, but haven't gotten around to telling M6 about it yet. this can be read with the M6 being either a romantic or platonic partner, however, ALL INTERACTIONS ARE PURELY PLATONIC WHILE MC IS IN THIS HEADSPACE. thank you ^.^ --
Julian
Genuinely terrified
Here is what he knows: something has happened.
He does not know what that something is, or why it's resulted in you acting and speaking like a child, but he can tell it's not fake and he doesn't like the way you start to get upset when he asks about it
Which is right about when his protective older brother instincts kick in. He doesn't know why you seem to be working with a child's brain, but he knows how to take care of kids
And he's definitely committed to taking care of you
Finds that the best way to calm you down (and to calm himself down) is to wrap you up in a nice, safe, long hug
Starts asking gentler, simpler questions about what you need and works with that
He quickly finds that you're very receptive to being entertained, so he launches into the first story he can think of
You both quickly get caught up in said story, and that's how you end up bundled in blankets on the couch while he paces the room and soaks up all your reactions to his tall tale
Spends three days buried in all the age regression information he can find and emerges with a five page list of questions
Asra
Low-key thinks it's a fun game at first and just goes with it
Until you stub your toe playing hide-and-go-seek in the closed shop and start honest-to-goodness crying in a ball on the floor
Okay now they're a little worried, that's not your usual behavior
Step 1: double check that touch is ok
Step 2: ask to hold your foot and then do a flashy magic spell to make the pain go away
Step 3: scold the shop counter for getting in the way of your poor toes and watch you start to giggle
Step 4: cuddle you close and use the safety to try to get a read on what's happening in your head through your bond
Step 5: quietly realize that your mind is reverted to a young state and resolve to give you the happiest glimpse of childhood he can
What follows is them taking the rest of the day/night off to spoil you and snuggle you and listen to you and do all sorts of silly things to make you smile
Yes, this includes covering yourselves (and the shop by extension) in glow-in-the-dark paint
Yes, this includes Faust playing peek-a-boo with you until you laugh yourself sick
Nadia:
She's not proud of it, but the first place her mind flickers to is the off chance that you're mocking her in some way
After spending her entire life trying not to be associated with childish things, seeing you acting in such a way touches on relational insecurities that she's trying to leave in the dust
This concern only lasts for maybe two seconds, though, because a quick look into your eyes tells her you're not faking anything
Well, she does love to care for you
She's still learning how to play the support role when it comes to emotional connection, but she thrives on the opportunity to physically provide for you
You seem like you could use some comfort. She can do that
She calls for your favorite food, she cradles you on her lap, she gently smooths your hair out of your face and wraps you in her softest blankets
And she talks with you. Just talks, not a discussion around improvement plans or a philosophical heart-to-heart. She finds out what your favorite color is and which part of her face you like most
Her first question when you're back to your usual self is how best to care for you like that in the future
Muriel:
Immediately notices you slipping but doesn't breathe a word because he wants to know what's happening before he does anything about it
Okay, this seems fine, you're clearly in a very child-like state of mind (he's had enough flashbacks to have a rough idea of what that's like) but you seem content and happy
Why are you smiling at him like that
Why are you climbing into his lap
Wait no no no don't curl up and go to sleep on his chest, he still isn't sure what's going on with you, what if he somehow hurts you while you're vulnerable like this??
Okay, you're just resting. And you seem extra happy when he holds you close and safe. ... and you're looking at the carving he's working on like you want to play with it
Well ... if it makes you smile ...
A few hours later, Muriel has unlocked several new skills: giving the carvings names. Giving the carvings individual voices. Helping you build an elaborate plot about the carvings' adventures
He eventually convinces you to get off his lap by having Inanna lie on top of you instead. She now considers you her pup
Does begin a new collection of carvings, specifically for you to enjoy next time you're in that headspace
Portia:
Baffled
But somehow instinctively knows what to do
She can tell right away from the way you're holding yourself to the change in your speaking patterns that your head isn't in the space it usually is. She just wants to make sure that that's a good thing
Also, you're oddly adorable like this
She'll ask you a few basic questions, but her nurturing instincts are strong, so as soon as she has a rough idea of what's going on she's jumping straight into gentle older sister mode
Will find a quiet, grounding activity to do with you so you can stay focused on something soothing while she keeps interacting with you and keeping tabs on your physical and mental state
She makes cookies (has it been mentioned that she stress bakes? she stress bakes) and has the time of her life rolling them out with you, making different shapes and counting chocolate chips
Pepi goes out of her way to lean on you and purr whenever she gets the chance so you stay extra grounded and safe
When you're back in your normal headspace, she's going to ask you about it first before trying to do any research. She wants to focus her efforts on your specific experience more than anything
Lucio
It's a good thing this is happening during down time or he would be beside himself with panic
He's still panicking a little, of course, but since you seem happy and uninjured and since Mercedes and Melchior aren't acting up he figures that this is just normal magician weirdness
He comes to the conclusion that you had an accident with a spell and now you have your child brain instead of your normal brain
Oh CRAP he's not good with kids, he knows he's not good with kids, he wants you to be happy, what does he do???
He tries asking you a few panicked questions, but it only seems to be distressing you and he hates seeing you upset
Sweets. Kids like sweets. He also likes sweets. And you don't seem like you're about to scold him for blowing his budget ...
He takes your hand in his non-metal one, throws a hooded cape over you that he knows you like, and marches you through the town until he finds the closest bakery
The rush of joy he feels from watching you light up at getting to pick as many sweets as you want is unrivaled
And watching you play tag and giggle with the dogs is even sweeter while you work off the resulting sugar high

Engaging with fiction in good faith allows you to build empathy by experiencing things through the eyes of other people
and refusing to engage with certain fiction because of a hard line moral stance against The Wrong Kind Of Fiction just makes you a less empathetic person over all.
The thing is, I engage with a lot of fiction that I would object to in real life. Sometimes I also run into fiction that I'm not particularly happy or comfortable with, but because the story is compelling, engaging, genuine and earnest and presented in a vulnerable, earnest, human way, my surface level distaste is overridden by my connection with a stranger who I've been given the opportunity to know.
I just read a comic by a gay man that has heavy drug use, written in a way that has an intimate knowledge of the kind of life and culture a lot of gay men run into, full of casual sex and hard drugs and sudden death and violence. The protagonist isn't a bad person, but he's also not the best person, but you root for him all the way through. And then he has a really bad trip and dies.
I don't feel particularly comfortable with any of that, but I was engaged all the way through. And by simplistic metrics many people might not consider it "good gay rep" or whatever because it involves a gay man doing all the hard drugs, being promiscuous and then dying, but it was written authentically, by a gay man who clearly has had experience with these things, and encourages you the reader to seek help and provides resources if you've experienced something similar.
I do not accept the idea that you should always have a moral stance on the fiction you consume. You don't have to make excuses, or have caveats, to justify the "problematic fiction" you've engaged with, maybe even enjoyed. Because a lot of fiction, particularly indie fiction, is a conversation between a creator revealing something honest and vulnerable, and a reader learning about the lives of others and experiences they will never have.
And it is a silly exercise to try to give that sort of conversation a (very ironically named) Common Sense Media review because it's got violence and drugs and kinky sex or whatever.
It is easy to stick to fiction you're comfortable with. I've done it, I do it. But in my experience, allowing yourself to engage with other people's stories, comfortable or not, is healthy for you as a human being in learning empathy and compassion for other human beings. Try reading some books in the local library, or do what I did and buy a bunch of indie comics and books from a convention full of indie creators (easy) and actually read them (Dark Souls Hard Mode).
And who knows, maybe you'll find something that'll change your life, or help you grow as a person. Or maybe you'll find a cool new thing you like.

You are a lady in waiting for a visiting noblewoman in King's Landing. You're from a highborn house but left your home for the opportunities the capitol provided.
Most days you find yourself waiting on your Lady and learning the way of the court (which basically means learning to talk circles around each other). She's one of the few kind people to you in this city and it's not from lack of trying.
Being in a bigger body than the other women puts a target on your back for verbal attacks and harassment, and as much as your Lady does her best to shield you from it there's only so much she can do.
That's how you met Sandor
On your way back from Court one day you find yourself cornered by two guardsmen who had their eyes on you all morning. They poke at you with their swords, making comments about ripping through your clothes when Sandor rounds a corner and spots all of you.
He meets your eyes and turns to the guards, " What do you cunts think you're doing?"
They whip around confidently until they see him and stutter over themselves backing away. You take this moment to rush away but not before whispering a thank you as you pass him.
From then on you begin to notice him more often, in Court, on your walks through the garden, even during meals. The first few times you catch his eye he quickly looks away, much to your disappointment.
It wasn't often a woman of your likeness was defended by a man, let alone at all, so you try to make it a point to find him to thank him properly.
It's difficult catching him alone but one night as your looking at the stars from the garden you hear the clanking of armor pass behind you and stop, " What're you doing here?" A deep voice asks.
You turn to him, " Oh, sorry Ser I was just enjoying the stars. Aren't they beautiful? "
"I'm no Ser, just The Hound"
" Well that's not a proper name, what did your mother call you?"
He hesitates, " Sandor"
" Thank you Sandor, for saving me a while back. I don't know what I would've done without your help." You pluck a few large daisies from the patch of flowers next to you and hold it out for him. " It's not much, but if you press it between book pages they can be used as a bookmark."
He looks around confused, " Girl, I don't read. Now lets get you back to your chambers before you have another run in with that scum. "
Dejected, you place the flowers down but stay where you are looking up at the stars. It wasn't often you could sneak out and get a good look so you savor the moment.
He huffs looking up, " What's there to look at any way? Just a bunch of lights"
Laughing softly you say, " They are more than just lights, I mean I know what the Maesters say about them but I choose to believe something else. I believe they're our dreams and wishes, hung by the Gods as a promise to fulfill them."
You realize how silly that must be to a man who kills for a living, but as you turn to him to apologize you see his face turned upwards and his eyes shut.
You both take a moment in silence beneath the stars before you turn to walk towards your room, " Good night, Sandor. I hope the night treats you well."
( What you don't see as you walk away is Sandor picking up and pocketing one of the Daisies)
During the weeks following your encounter with him, you begin to see a change in his demeanor towards you. His cold stares turn soft and fleeting and when your eyes meet in Court or during meals they linger as if he's trying to solve something in your eyes.
It flustered you to no end and soon those stolen glances turned to greetings as you passed by each other, which seemed to happen so frequently now.
He also seemed to find you every night you snuck out to see the stars. It started out staying quiet as the first night, but quickly turned to whispered conversations under moonlight till dawn. You did most of the talking, but that was okay, he wasn't one with words but his eyes could tell you stories.
Every once in a while you were even able to get him to crack a smile at your jokes about Joffrey, but he was always telling you to be careful for unwanted listeners.
He was like that more often, looking out for you. You hadn't been bothered by any of the guards since that day, the kitchen staff weren't giving you looks as you plated food anymore and it felt like you were finally fitting in. ( as much as you could in this place)
You wouldn't know it but whenever he was in your presence, even from afar, his eyes would wander to you searching for any excuse to be close. One too many times he was caught doing so and had to swiftly deal with said person. The last thing he needed was any gossip reaching yours or Joffrey's ears.
And then one night it all ended. The battle at blackwater bay.
You were tending to the crying woman and children hiding when a large BOOM is heard as the door swings open. And in pops Sandor, out of breath and rushing towards you,
" I'm getting you the fuck out of here"
He lifts you up over his shoulder, leaving no room for discussion, and heads out to his horse.
After weeks of travel, you find yourself hundreds of miles away from Kings Landing, your home, and your Lady. You thought you'd never see the day you miss Kings Landing but here you are, miles away from home with a man that makes your heart flutter. And yet, you're not sure he even feels the same.
Through the breaking daylight you see you're standing on the outskirts of a small village.
You say," You must've been frightened that night...the night the water was on fire, but what would make you think to take me with you. I'm nobody. "
He looks at you as if you've offended him and wordlessly reaches into his pocket to grab the book smashed daisy and hands it to you.
" Now, that house over there looks abandoned. We could set up- "
With all the bravery you can muster you place a hand on the side of his face and reach up to gently kiss him.
He softly places his hand over yours as he leans down for you.
After a few moments you pull away, " We might be seeing a falling star tonight."
He looks at you puzzled
You laugh lightly, " Seems a dream of mine finally came true"
Tumblr media
Pt 2 with the actual headcanons of being with him and living in the country side should be out in the next week or so. Hope you enjoyed!!

Do you have any petpeaves regarding the M*A*S*H fandom?
lol sure i'll take the opportunity provided to express a few, ty for the ask!
Overall Mash fandom is pretty awesome imo, and I actually don't have many compared to a lot of fandoms I've been in, and the ones I do have tend to apply to most fandoms anyway lol, they're staples of fandom in general.
-- The biggest one is probably the common take that Hawkeye is insecure, self-loathing, emotionally repressed, thinks he doesn't deserve love, yadda yadda yadda. This isn't really Mash specific because the bad-self-esteem-ray hits every bottom in fandom at some point lol, but it's extra grating in Mash fandom for me because to me it feels more blatantly OOC than most versions of this.
Now to be fair to fandom there are a few scattered lines throughout the series you can take out of context to justify this take, and one bad episode that provably contradicts the rest of the show (Who Knew), but I feel like you have to stretch like a gymnast to justify it and ignore 99% of the rest of the show and Hawkeye's behaviour.
And it's boring and flattens Hawkeye to a caricature of someone else imho.
-- Generally, and again this applies to all fandoms lbr, I dislike the way a lot of people need to jump to accusations of bigotry to justify their personal preferences. One example I've seen a couple of times that's absolutely bizarre to me is the take that if Klinger gets dicked down and/or feminized in fic it's because of racist fetishization. That's Maxwell Q. Klinger, the dude who wears dresses throughout most of the show and canonically grows to genuinely enjoy it. And even if he was 100% masculine, that's what a lot of fandom does to every single dude they love ever lol, all it means is that Klinger has a fanbase, which is a good thing. imo attitudes like these help contribute to non-white characters getting less fanworks about them, and while I don't think it's prevalent enough in Mash fandom to have a negative effect, I've seen it destroy other ships featuring characters of colour.
Another example is the classic bad take that if you don't ship women in het or interpret a heterosexual relationship as doomed/not romantic/etc, it's because of misogyny lol. It's not hugely common in Mash fandom but I've seen it occasionally from BJ/Peg shippers and the very occasional Margaret enthusiast.
Oh and another example is that depicting Hawkeye as effeminate is homophobia. Again, this is Hawkeye, the dude who proudly calls himself unmanly in various ways every episode and makes 50 jokes about wanting to get fucked in the ass. Frankly it's a bigger stretch to me to assume he wouldn't easily and happily adopt actual effeminate body language/phrasing and tone if he's, say, at the bar and wants to pull a top. Or maybe even just if there are no straight people around, yk? Why not? The take that writing unmasculine men is offensive is a fandom classic and usually strikes me itself as homophobic, gender essentialist, and basically just someone's masc4masc kink masquerading as an issue.
Like to be clear there is certainly bigotry in the Mash fandom, as in every fandom, and it's worth discussing, and sometimes depending on context it can even apply in the above cases (eg if a fic about Klinger getting dicked down earnestly described him as idk exotic or something, or if people who 'feminize' male characters take it to silly extremes and start writing meta about how these men are woman-coded/victims of misogyny lol) but this ain't it chief, this is people repackaging their own pet peeves in social justice language to win perceived arguments, and it's a bad vibe.
-- This one IS fairly Mash specific lol, and to be clear it's 100% harmless and just something that makes me roll my eyes sometimes because I'm not into it myself and it strips away the things I do like about the ship: the way a lot of Hawk/BJ fans headcanon BJ as much more supportive and sensitive to Hawkeye than he actually is, by taking various things he does and assuming he does them for Hawkeye, like he's constantly aware of Hawkeye's unexpressed needs and catering to them.
Yk, he wears pink shirts for Hawkeye! He grew the moustache for Hawkeye (never mind that Hawkeye hates it)! He stole Hawkeye's joke to give Hawkeye enrichment because Hawkeye loves... being upset I guess. Joker Is Wild? All for Hawkeye because Hawkeye loves being paranoid and alienating people. (The reasoning I've actually seen is that Hawkeye loves having an excuse to throw a tantrum lol). He totally comforts Hawkeye when Hawkeye is upset, they just never show it. He is devoted to Hawkeye, he'd do anything for him, ignore the episodes where he calls him crazy and ditches him while he's facing adversity. He's Hawkeye's emotional support!
I've seen it in serious meta and casual headcanons and fic where BJ just falls into role of tender, emotionally intelligent emotional support like it's an assumed part of their dynamic despite not only never seeing that in canon, but Hawkeye actually pointing out multiple times that BJ is not very supportive.
It's also a misreading of Hawkeye who is actually the emotional support of their friendship, rather than vice versa, and tends to go hand in hand with my first pet peeve: Hawkeye as an emotionally insecure, repressed mess lol. BJ goes to him when he needs a shoulder to cry on, something consistent to the point of it being a way to manipulate Hawkeye in Picture This. Not vice versa. Hawkeye goes to Margaret or Mulcahy or Sidney. The only example I can think of where BJ provides emotional support (by which I mean listening to Hawkeye's emotional concerns and offering supportive input) to Hawkeye is the end of Comrades in Arms, and it's like the bare minimum of fulfilling the typical best friend on tv role.
(I like that BJ doesn't fulfill that role tbh! It's more interesting that way, it makes their dynamic feel more unique and intriguing.)
-- Also people who think Mash got more progressive in the later seasons. I think it demonstrates a shallow understanding of the political implications of the show. Getting rid of the character with a slur for a nickname doesn't automatically equal less racist, it's just an easy thing to point to that doesn't require much critical thought. And the growing feminist concerns go hand in hand with depicting republicans, patriots, and racist imperialistic military commanders as good people.
And to be fair I sympathize with this take, I've seen it everywhere from fandom to grumbling republicans complaining about mash getting preachier to professionally written retrospectives and academic analysis lol, so it's not like I hold fandom to higher standards. The ways Mash grows more regressive are more insidious, and the problems in the early seasons are much more obvious and in your face than in the later seasons. And there will always be some debate on whether eg rampant womanizing is worse than pro-imperialism messages, though I know what side I fall on there.
But imo it still sucks that it's such a popular opinion.
-- The emphasis on found family, especially in a 'the war brought them together' sense. Any hint of gratitude that the war let them meet people they love in fic, or whatever. This is something I can't completely blame on fandom because the show itself veered uncomfortably close to this a few times too in the later years, but yeah I'm not a fan. To me the most important aspect of Mash is the fact that they all hate it there, the war is worse than hell, they're virtually prisoners trapped in a nightmare, and any of the draftees would absolutely trade those relationships for an end to the war or just a ticket home. Their friendships are less a silver lining and more a painkiller that just barely takes the edge off. I think this vibe is clearer in the first half of the show, but that's yet another reason the first half is better and more progressive politically lol. And it doesn't disappear in the latter half either, just gets a bit more muddied.
-- This kind of goes hand in hand with the above points, but I feel like it's more of an older Mash fandom issue that I encounter when archive diving moreso than a thing currently (though I do occasionally still see it these days): fans who actively like the military stuff lol. I've read fic where dog tags are kinked on/romanticized, fic that depicts draft-dodging as bad, etc. These days it's more stuff in line with the worst parts of canon, like taking Potter at face value as a Good authority figure who deserves respect because of his military experience, but yeah. Don't like that.
-- Okay that's all I got off the top of my head. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to whine lol

yn with flirty/cold/slippery attitude, hellos, and "about [character]" voicelines? (chongyun diluc childe kazuha)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Y/N Voicelines
warnings ; offensive words, etc.
characters ; Kazuha, Diluc, Childe & Chongyun
notes ; i added some voicelines too LMQO i got too carried away, im cringing
Hello
Oh?... you're curious about who I am? A bit strange... to be certain you had called upon odd metier in your lifetime, so it wasn't all too unpredictable that you would seek to know more about myself and what my intention in this world was. So I've chosen to deliver the response myself. I am a Traveler from another world, like you. but! you aspire to the truth of teyvat while I, L/N, Y/N aim to understand it. So tell me, what have I come here to inquire of from you?
Tumblr media
Chat: Delays
just how absurd are you? standin' here and accomplishing nothing. I am not going to be responsible for you for falling behind.
When Thunder Strikes
Oh my... Pleasant climate it is, I always like to think that if I have to listen to one additional thunderclap, I might get hit by its lightning! Haha, ridiculous. you think I'm that childish? quit it.
After The Rain
I'll concede, I am fairly enjoying this ambiance, I enjoy walking alone, and it’s always been uncomplicated going off someplace with no gazes on me.
When it Snows
it’s only a few tiny fragments, yet the chill is intense. Ugh, I've always despised it whenever it snows, not to speak of that winter brings the most ominous weather ever.
Good Morning
Get up and take hold of the day with all your strength or I might as well end up taking care of you today too.
Good Afternoon
Why don't we halt by the inn? You and that small thing flowing beside you are probably drowsy.
Good Evening
Another evening has eventually dropped anchor. The only thing that could make this duller is that I got to witness it.
Good Night
Haha, you're anxious that I might take the opportunity to kill you while you're napping? that's actually an excellent idea, though I'm quite surprised you're not dead yet, perhaps I should get more rest if I have a strategy at slaughtering you, so don't concern too much about it. I'm not going to do anything harmful tonight, and I guarantee you won't remember it in the dawn. just rest up.
About Kaedehara Kazuha
You're talking about the Young Samurai? Seriously? Why would that be something to gloat about, huh? I'm not even really surprised you'd let out this variety of stuff. you've always been quite the gossipy person. all I know is that he's remarkable at making ballads, hm? you wish to know more about him? why don't you ask him yourself? You're so pesky.
About Childe
That man is a menace. No, he's the absolute connotation of agony. I loathe his demeanor. Imagine not being competent to use chopsticks. what are you, a juvenile? his name suits him. That man provides me headaches every period we interact. though his combat ability is something that I should be proud of, he is one of a fighter and it's difficult to find someone with that vast skill.
About Diluc
did I hear that right? you're asking me about that grumpy man, the one who always looks like he's on the verge of massacring his mates? the grumpy one with the scarred knuckles and that bloody piercing eyes who has never ceased looking ready to kill ever since the day I met him, but hey, he has captivating features if you know what I mean.
About Chongyun
That young man who loves to exorcist his nonexistent ghosts? I don't know why but he always seems nervous around me, is there something intimidating about me? What a silly thought, whatever he's adorable enough to calm me down.

Pairing: coworker!chan x afab!reader
Genre: smut
Word count: 1.1k
tags: cocky Chan, rival!chan, food service au, car sex, praise kink, unprotected sex, neck kisses, biting, degrading, harsh language
author note: hi lol. bc of Xans request, its here. it took a week but it's here. maybe it's bc i’ve been planning my wedding, or I'm excited about the concert, there's just a lot going on in my life I'm a little overwhelmed so please be patient guys. thank you.
You weren’t going to lie, you liked putting on a show. The situation calls for it when you’re one of many servers in a high-end restaurant with customers that always have money to burn. Initially, it felt demeaning, no doubt about it, but it didn’t matter when you say those stacks of tips grow. The pay made the job tolerable until a new guy joined a few months ago.
He was cute, you had to admit, but you knew a threat when you saw one. If you weren’t quick, he would have the opportunity to steal all your clientele, he already had the ins with the middle-aged female crowd and it was looking up with boys around his age. With that pretty boy smile and a tight round ass to boot, he was racking in his own benjamins and regulars that call him by name. He was already on par with you in such a short amount of time.
Normally, you wouldn’t have let this go and bother you, but he seems to enjoy flaunting the success rather than the actual success itself. Let’s just say as pretty as his lips were, boy did he love to talk shit through them. “It’s only been an hour and up to $300 in tips tonight. Lee Chan, you really have it good, don’t you?”
And yes, he does refer to himself in the third person.
You roll your eyes out of his line of vision to mumble curses to yourself, but the newbie hears it nonetheless. He struts in your aisle and leans against the wall next to you as you input table 12’s order. He crosses one arm over the other, a smug smile on his face. “How are you, y/n? You doing good?”
“I was better before you started to walk over. Now my morale is down.”
“Oh well, that can’t be good. Your performance is declining, poor morale won’t do you any favors.”
You shut your eyes and took a deep breath before submitting the order to the kitchen. You turn to face the nuisance head-on. “Don't get cocky because customers are getting interested in a fresh face. It’ll only be before they get sick of you.”
“Like they are with you?”
“Unlike you, I provide consistency. Speaking of,” you began unbuttoning the top of your blouse, a sliver of skin peeking through tantalizingly. Chan’s throat runs dry, and his nails scratch up against his apron. “That’s one of my customers now, with a big group even.”
You tend to the familiar faces assigned to your section and put on a smile. In effortless banter, you get the new arrivals to grow interested in the restaurant’s current promotion and rack up a big bill. A typical flawless execution as always on your end. In the corner of your eye, you notice Chan observing you from inside the kitchen as usual. An intensity in his eyes that seems to grow in passing time. You knew it all too well, having had those same eyes on him.
You both seem to be fighting for the top rank and as silly as it may be, you found it to be worth your time. If you were honest, the boy's ego had to come down to Earth. Even if he was good at his job, it was no excuse to be as obnoxious as he is. No matter how hot he is, it was no excuse for him to treat you like—
“Shit—f-fuck.”
Chan’s lips latch on your neck like a leech and catch the surface of your skin between his teeth. You suck your breath and let the sounds of traffic hum behind the car windows. Your hands roam on the skin exposed from his open shirt, tracing along his tone build. 
“Mmh, you’re so cute when you’re needy.” He mumbles in your skin.
“Y-you’re so a-annoying.”
He chuckles, pulling away from your neck to level his face to yours. “You’re already having sex with me in my car. You can stop with the facade now.”
“Shut up.”
You climb on top of his lap, smashing your lips against his in a frenzy, just knowing he’d definitely have shit on you for succumbing, but at this moment all you wanted was to get off on smth. His hands on your hips, he guides them on top of his body, feeling the heat of your skin tickle him. “You want me so bad.”
“I will leave this car right now if you don’t shut the fuck up.”
“Well, why would you want to,” his hands creep down your pants and past your underwear, feeling the embarrassing wet spot he caused, “we have unfinished business.”
“If you keep talking like you’re in a bad porno, I will seriously leave you blue balled,” you bold state as his index finger curls up at your entrance, “I’m not fu-fuck…”
“What’s that,” he taunts, “you were telling me off?”
“Just—mmh.”
Your hips grind down on his lap, his erection inevitably growing underneath you. You lean into his touch and capture his lips in yours, panting softly as you pull off your blouse. His fingers trace over the texture of your skin, calling your name sinisterly. He readily unbuttons his pants and brings length out in full view. He gazes up at you, Adam’s apple bobbing down as he speaks. “Ride me. I want to see what those hips can do.”
He helps you out of your work pants, kicking them under the driver’s seat, your knees digging into the cushion of his leather seats. He embraces your upper body, watching as you pull out his cock from his underwear and slip it inside you. He groans at how you squeeze around him, watching as either of your arms lands behind him on the back of his seats, your eyes wandering behind him. 
He takes your hands and forces them on the surface of his shoulders, your eyes instinctively on him in an instant, heeding his words. “Is it so hard for you to have your eyes on me? Can you do that for me?”
You silently nod, succumbing to the very man you hate so much in the workplace, falling limp to his very word.
“Can you say it out loud for me?”
“I’ll make sure to look at you.” You solemnly reassure.
He offers a kind smile. “Good little slut.”
Your stomach churns at his confusing praise, not having enough time to properly react when he decides to start thrusting up into you. Your hips move at his speed and your eyes begin to roll the back of your skull, feeling his cock stuffing inside you effortlessly. Hands tingling in excitement, you grab handfuls of his shirt. “Fuck me faster, please, Chan.”
“I live to serve.”

Might be a silly question but would you be able to do a quick post about the girls of Silver bullets and who their relationships (romantic?) are with?
I find that I’m reading too many things at one time and am having a hard time remembering who’s with who. Ps absolutely love your writing!
hey anon! not a silly question at all and something i'm more than happy to provide!!! it's quite the grouping and a whole lot of people and moving parts, so it is no worries at all :D some of the girls have more established and *finalized* storylines and such, while others....we'll see as it comes. so! below are all the pairings, with little descriptions i've given each! both vivian and bessie have boyfriends back home (and are serving in the war), while all the other girls are either paired with some MOTA boys or not (if you have ideas though, i'd be happy to take them!) this can serve as a silver bullets pairing masterlist!! thank you again and enjoy! <3
PAIRINGS:
ANNIE BRADSHAW X JOHN BRADY
Two pilots who find one another amid a world war, trying to seek out some form of comfort and warmth, in a time filled with grief, mental torment, and uncertainty.
FRANCIS MONTEZ
A co-pilot whose mental battle becomes the biggest proponent next to a world war - wondering if their replacement pilot will step up to plate, if they'll go down and lose Silver Bullets altogether, or if they'll be blasted from the sky in a metal coffin.
BESSIE CARLISLE X THOMAS MCKENZIE (OMC)
Separated by countries and oceans and merely connected through nothing but letters and pressed flowers, with scented envelopes, childhood sweethearts who fell head over heels with one another.
CARRIE ACHTERBERG X JAMES DOUGLASS
Bombardier friends who suddenly find themselves together more often not - and usually always trying to get the other to laugh, even if they're not watching.
KENNEDY FARLEY X JOHN EGAN
In training, she was a waist gunner on his fort. Then he found out she was a Red Sox fan and he, being a loyal Yankees fan, took every opportunity to 'bust her chops'. On tougher days, they seem to linger a little closer to one another than warranted.
MARGIE HARLOWE X BERNARD DEMARCO
Bonded over their love for animals and seemed to hang around one another since. Co-parents it appears to Meatball, the husky won in craps - they say they're just friends though.
JUDY RYBINSKI X ROSIE ROSENTHAL
Losing command pilot after command pilot began to take its toll on the young turret ball gunner, so getting a new pilot who stepped up to the plate and took charge made her gravitate closer toward him more than anything.
MARIANNE SALINGER
Lovingly takes care of an orange cat named Frank who likes to wander the base. Has never been in anything serious with a guy, usually a cheerleader for her friends, if anything.
VIVIAN RATCLIFFE X JAMES PENNINGTON (OMC)
He worked at her dad's mechanic garage and soon was coming over for dinner at the Ratcliffe household. She hangs onto any letters he sends and spends nights writing back to him in training, hoping one day, they're back on her family's farm once again.
PAULINA STAGLIANO
Had a boyfriend back home, but when she was in Greenland, wrote that he thought they should break it off - since then has made it her goal to commit entirely to the cause and focus on the world in front of her - and the war.

Vox Machina rant time! Specifically I've been thinking about Scanlan.
CRC1 Scanlan and TLOVM Scanlan are quite different in my mind. Technically I discovered the DND game before the show, but I didn't get into it until after TLOVM came out. Thus, for some characters including Scanlan, I saw their show characterizations before the original ttrpg ones. And honestly I think that made me like him less??? Which isn't really anything against the show because it's entirely a product of the show format.
Let me explain. If you think about Scanlan in TLOVM, most of his lines are comedic relief. There's a lot of jokes and the like in TLOVM, and most of them are his. That's not really all that much of a problem for me on it's own, as Scanlan is a very comedic character, and it's important to show that. What bothers me is that to me, it kind of cheapens him. It makes him seem incompetent, incapable of taking things seriously, and like he constantly has his mind in gutter. That impression is wrong, but since it's most of what we see of him it's the conclusion I drew first. And so when watching the show, while I respected him as a character, as a person he came off annoying and frustrating (especially because my humor is quite different)
In the campaign however, I like Scanlan a lot more. He's great! He still provides a lot of comic relief, (he is still the same character concept after all!) but the difference is that the campaign's long format allows his character and the story as a whole more breathing room. Not only is there more time for character growth, but there's also more opportunities for each character to branch out and do things the others usually do without it destroying characterizations. Watching the episodes I can find so many times where Scanlan is the one who comes up with the plan, or is the voice of reason, or gathers the information, or carries out a serious negotiation. When every line isn't vital to his character, he has the time to crack a variety of jokes which I actually find hilarious. When there's enough opportunities to plan to go around and you don't have to give them all to the Smart Guy, your funny guy can have strokes of tactical brilliance too. And so then I actually care about him because he's given the space to be something more complex than a walking dick joke. Yes, he has his moments in the show too, but they're so overshadowed by everything else that they barely factor into my idea of him. The campaign gives him the space to make his silly little jokes and innuendos and rhymes, while still being something more than that.
All of this to say that adapting such a huge story is very hard because every individual action is so much more important. My first impressions of Scanlan weren't great, because most of what's in the show is stuff I personally find annoying. But in listening to the episodes, where his character has the time to be more complex, I've actually come to quite like him.
(disclaimer: this is not me hating on TLOVM at all it's amazing and I really enjoy it it's just that listening to the og campaign got me thinking)

Just thought of a silly prompt, but an expansion on Jefferson's line in Cabinet Battle #2, "Daddy's callin'" being expanded upon? I always thought that Hamilton would totally jump Jefferson, being how he already tends to fly off the handle at remarks like that. Hope you're doing well!! XXX
I very much enjoy this question anon-friend. The first time I saw Hamilton in person I had this brief thought, but then kind of drove it away for a few reasons:
* Thomas himself is not a physical guy. I wouldn't speculate that he can't take a punch, but I doubt he'd get the satisfaction of pushing Alexander to violence if he's going to be the target of said violence.
* Thomas probably would think provoking Alexander to violence is beneath him. This kind of goes along with the first point, but for Thomas, his focus in my mind is making himself look better and smarter than Alexander. (I could go on and on about classism here, but the main point is Thomas had every opportunity, Alex had zero save Washington’s support. But here they are basically on equal footing, and it's gotta smart that Alexander is about 13 years younger than him).
* Switching points of view, Alexander is beyond desperate to prove he belongs here, that he's a gentleman, and that he is just as good as Thomas and the rest of the cabinet and he does belong here. (He has moments of doubt of course, but he knows he needs to keep himself from flying off the handle all the time).
If my brain was functioning a bit more these last couple weeks I'd be able to dig more in depth, but I hope this provides a bit of (my) characterization-lite. Basically give me Alex struggling with lots of self doubt and impostor syndrome his whole life.

The intersection of climate communication and climate creativity... enter the Zine
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Whoever said art was therapeutic was right, and this week's assignment for class took me back to childhood in some ways, just letting ideas flow, coloring outside of the lines, folding, cutting, pasting, scribbling and creating. When I first heard about Zines I was like "what is that?" then when our local Zine librarian stopped by and explained and shared a few examples I started to get it. However, it wasn't until I created my own that I really appreciated the experience. First and foremost because it provided an opportunity to connect with classmates and share ideas on designs, to catch up on recent events and to laugh about silly things, which is especially important in a time when everything feels so serious.
Second of all, in class, I heard the TA say that last year when they made a Zine they weren't initially into it but when they got home they couldn't stop working on, it and now I understand; I did continue mine at home after class too. What I appreciate most about the experience is that it reminded me that there are still things to be enjoyed, simple pleasures like doing something for fun and not obligation (ok that is a half-truth because this is for a grade) and to express your thoughts in a way that is unrestricted. If there's one thing to take away from my Zine is that while we talk about decarbonization and net zero we need to remember to think about it from all angles and how it affects all groups.
