#i hate both ships with the passion of a thousand suns
Text
I honestly hate the idea of either Sylvie or Mobius as potential love interests for Loki. They are both very toxic to him and I don’t get why anyone would ship them with Loki. In fact I believe that the best ending for Loki is Loki leaving both Sylvie and Mobius while flipping them off with both hands while walking away. Loki deserves better than that for a love interest.
#loki#loki odinson#loki friggason#loki laufeyson#anti sylki#anti lokius#loki deserves better#i hate both ships with the passion of a thousand suns#they are both very toxic to loki

fic writer meme
ty claire @microcomets for the tag!!!!
How many works do you have on Ao3?
seventy three !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! jesus christ lol
2. What's your total Ao3 word count?
five hundred twelve thousand three hundred AND THREE human words. PLUS some comics
3. What fandoms do you write for?
whateber catches my fancy... mostly danmei these days but 🤫 perhaps a new world in the works soon
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
oh jeez lol
you asleep and dreaming
atlas
linger in the sun
take me by the waist to the water (<- this one's having a renaissance these days bc of the donghua, by far the most kudos per day)
this tornado loves you
the people love wangxian!
5. Do you respond to comments?
VERY RARELY... i try to respond asap to anyone who asks about translating (i LOVE TRANSLATIONS) but other than that i feel very shy about replying to comments LOL 😵💫😵💫 even though i love when authors respond to MY comments...
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
for a while i wrote a lot of "missing scene" wangxians where it's just like a moment or a handful of moments in the middle of the action, and i think all of them have implicit angsty endings: because they're just a missing scene, and there's no continuation, you understand that "having that conversation"/"kissing or almost kissing then" changes nothing in the greater arc... wei wuxian still gives jiang cheng his golden core, is still reviled and then killed... etc... but definitely the angstiest fic i've written remains flightless bird which cair read and then immediately blocked out of their mind forever
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
MOST Of my fics that aren't the above missing scene fics are happy endings. some faves include no other waters and to be a good companion, both post-tyk happy endings; at least in this lifetime, my most recent take on mdzs happy ending; a lot's gonna change, a wedding fic which was written in honor of most beloved friends mary + aubrey's actual real life wedding (and actual real life happy ending)
8. Do you get hate on fics?
not really lol probably once a year i'll get a rude comment that i immediately delete and go "? lol" about. i was NOT victimized by shino which >:/ okay... excluding me...
9. Do you write smut?
teehee
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you have written?
ive really only written one crossover (atlas: wangxian + hualian) which got it all out of my system. crossovers are hard to do well especially when all the things i'm into are in world structures that can't easily overlap
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
no fics "stolen" as in reposted wholesale (TO MY KNOWLEDGE?) but definitely i used to notice some plagiarism here and there when wangxian was really popping! mostly specific turns of phrase/passages but sometimes whole concepts. also one time i tweeted a funny hualian thread about hua cheng purring and then a couple days later i decided i want to whip it up into a fic and then like 3 hours after i posted the fic i went and checked the tag (these were the days that you could check the tag more than once a day) and someone had posted their own fic that was just beat-for-beat my original thread. uncredited obviously. lol
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
YES AND I ACTUALLY KEEP A CHERISHED SPREADSHEET OF ALL THE TRANSLATIONS!!!! like claire, mostly spanish/russian/chinese. most exciting tls for me personally are the persian and turkish ones
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
NO!!!!!!! I'M TOO UNRELIABLE AND OVERPROTECTIVE!!!!!!! every time zoë and miriam or fey and fer talk about how much they love co-writing i'm like omg. wish i were constitutionally capable of doing such an activity. but i'm not
14. What's your all time favorite ship?
THE SCHOONER WINDFALL OF OCRACOKE ISLAND!!!!!!!!! ROLL THE CLIP!!!!!!!!!!!!
no uhh idk passions come and go! once i get Particularly Into a ship i'll come back and read fics for it years later... every ship fills a different niche in my heart...
15. What is a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
(HUGE BOLD LETTERS) pacific rim wangxian au i miss you so bad
also inception au wenzhou fic but that feels more likely to be finished... maybe one day...
16. What are your writing strengths?
precision + beauty of language; i am really funny; i'm good at choreography
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
PLOT :( PACING :(
18. Thoughts of writing dialogue in another language in fics?
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! i like it the most when i personally can understand it LMFAO but like really well-written bilingual writing where you DON'T have to speak the second language in order to get the gist of what's being said - either bc of elegant/subtle translation in the narration or bc of context - is sooo good and so hard to do well
OR i love lianzi's approach to translation in her shl chinese restaurant au (ONE OF THE FUNNIEST FICS OF ALL TIME) where some of the text is written in chinese and you hover over it for the english translation
19. First fandom you wrote for?
technically les mis but that doesn't count. jojo's bizarre adventure
20. Favorite fic you have written?
ummmmm mmmm hmmmmm hmmmmm. at any given time i mostly like my most recent fics the best but i do think our eyes on the road is particularly enduring - i love a lot of the landscape writing i did in that one, i think i captured the vibe of "late winter in new england" particularly well!
I TAG... @cairoscene @vinelark @houtaroo @fruitdaze AND @uhuraisgay

karna for the character meme : D
oh? karna? karna my beloved? oh! how unexpected, what luck! an anon also asked for karna so lets GO
Sexuality Headcanon: he's ace, his only fiery desire is for battle. However he's panromantic. if he loves you, he loves you, and who you are is not a factor in why
Gender Headcanon: if you listen closely, you can hear me shouting from the rooftops "TRANS KARNA"
A ship I have with said character: honestly? i LOVE karna x jinako. it warms my heart!!!!! even if its a basic ship its the best one!!!! love for jinako forever!!!!
A BROTP I have with said character: Ashwatthama. 100%. and also obviously Duryo now that he's here, but Ash came to mind first. They beat each other up in the void for a thousand years for fun, dude. what more could you ever ask for in a brotp
A NOTP I have with said character: Do I Have To Say It. karjuna. karna x arjuna. hate it. it dies in a fire tonight by my hands.
A random headcanon: he gives off a lot of heat in a certain proximity, but he isn't hot to the touch. like, i think he has a normal body temperature when you touch him. snuggling up with him is probably just as cozy and comforting as with anyone else (if you ignore the spikes). BUT sitting in the chair next to him in the break room is equivalent of being next to a hot oven. Either get in close to get past the heat, or back off to get away from it. Furthermore, I don't think he understands this is the case, or that this happens at all, because HE himself is not hot. He assumes its because of his fire cape and not his own radiating sun-heat
General Opinion over said character: oooooooOOOOOHHHHH KARNA MY BELOVED. I adore him. I admire him. I see bits of myself in him. He's a silly little guy and a loyal friend who knows what he's about. He's incredibly kind, he's a dork when it comes to showing his kindness. He's both selfless and selfish, he's egotistical, he's logical and straight forward, he's always making sure others are satisfied and safe. He gets carried away a LOT but his heart is in the right place. He's a passionate dude with too many cool powers and too much pride to use them. Karna is very important to me and often inspires me. I enjoy him, I think about him constantly, and I'd like to steal his gender. Karna is my love, my heart, my stars and most importantly...my sun
As you can see, I have a totally normal and reserved general opinion about Karna Fate/Grand Order. in the remainder of this essay I will--

Shit, man, on this SS-fan thing, I hate Shippuden Sasuke with the passion of a thousand suns, but I don't want the guy to suffer (and I know, he's been through hell and Curse of Hatred and everything else, and I sympathize with him intellectually, but it's a "his behavior reminds me of someone who hurt me in the past so I can't get over it" sort of thing).
All that being said, I wouldn’t want him to be in an abusive relationship just so Sakura can "pay him back" for what he did or whatever. I hope they talked about it and I hope he apologized to everyone on Team 7, but I don't want him groveling daily to keep her love. That shit's not healthy. I like their mutual respect of each other as adults.
Honestly, as much as I love Sakura, she's got a lot of toxic behaviors herself that she needs to unlearn, mostly the tsundere ones because that's not healthy (that said, she never was that way with Sasuke, and again, it's unhealthy behavior. We shouldn't want to see her treat Sasuke like that, we should want her to grow too and not act that way to anyone). Side bar, I hate how prevalent the "violent scary wife" trope is in the world that they even did it to Temari and Hinata. Hinata. Fucking hell.
But really, I'm going to die mad because Sasuke pulled some Gomez Addams level shit going "My wife isn't a weak woman, she'll probably have everything handled by the time we get there," ontop of how he fought alongside Sakura in Gaiden, and so Boruto Sasuke has begrudgingly earned my respect, heck, even my adoration, and I feel like that should be illegal with how much I hate Shippuden Sasuke.
All this to say, I liked the ship in Part 1 and I like the ship post Shippuden, especially with my own headcanons to fill in the blanks.
And while I still hate Shippuden Sasuke, he's allowed to grow and change and be happy as an adult after processing all that unmitigated trauma he went through as a child. Idk why that's so hard for some people to grasp? Just my thoughts on SS that I wanted to throw in on the subject.
Thank you for your input, I agreed with pretty much everything you said, apart from the hating on Shippuden Sasuke part of course. My opinion on him never changed; he was my favourite character from beginning to end.
I'd also just like to highlight a few things from what you said.
It's a "his behavior reminds me of someone who hurt me in the past so I can't get over it" sort of thing
That's understandable, so fair enough.
Honestly, as much as I love Sakura, she's got a lot of toxic behaviors herself that she needs to unlearn, mostly the tsundere ones because that's not healthy
I'm glad you mentioned this, because it's not mentioned enough. Both Sasuke and Sakura had aspects of their characters that they needed to work on. Thankfully, much like Sasuke, the ones you mentioned for Sakura seemed to have faded from her adult self.
I hate how prevalent the "violent scary wife" trope is in the world that they even did it to Temari and Hinata. Hinata. Fucking hell.
I'm really glad you mentioned this, because my goodness I couldn't agree more.
Boruto Sasuke has begrudgingly earned my respect, heck, even my adoration, and I feel like that should be illegal with how much I hate Shippuden Sasuke.
I've never been in a situation where a character that I used to despise ended up earning my adoration. I either stay hating them, or I become indifferent to them, but my opinion has never changed so drastically that I actually end up liking them, must be strange, lol.

for the ship game:
beckett/sascha
mina/jonathan
nines/lacroix
vykos/holzmann (aka Double Sascha)
[ship it or don't ship it meme]
Well that's a solid 'ship it' for all four. Let's go through 'em!
Beckett/Sascha
What made you ship it?
Literally, this exact passage.
Like yes okay funny haha 'hate fuck it out' and all but this passage is the bit that made me go, "Oh. They're parallels."
What are your favourite things about the ship?
They work so well together. Not just as a character dynamic, but in-universe. Once they stop trying to murder each other, they just click, and Drowning of Rasputin showcases that beautifully. They have shared passions but different approaches that coordinate extremely well, where Sascha gets Beckett to maybe act a little more analytically and Beckett gets Sascha to, um, not turn people inside out.
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
Super not a fan of the like... pre-Dracon-extraction stuff where it's still extremely unhealthy, like I have seen some ship content that was still very much 'enemies' and not so much 'enemies to lovers'. Like I feel Beckett saw enough in Dracon!Sascha to save their unlife in Constantinople, but I can't see an actual relationship starting until they get through that.
Mina/Jonathan
What made you ship it?
Jonathan went from "I should get this recipe for Mina! :D" to "I would condemn myself to hell for Mina". Mina went from "My fiance wrote to me *dokis*" to "My husband is a goddamn beast *eyes emoji*". They protect each other, they look after each other, and they complement each other. They both have this really cool dichotomy of being both Very Victorian and also Very GNC And Also Sometimes Feral. They're both fantastic characters in how they're written and fantastic people in that I would 100% love to be friends with them. And they love each other and are devoted to each other with the force of a thousand suns and it'd be exceedingly hard not to super love both characters and also not come out of it loving their relationship, too.
tl;dr I took one look at how in love these dorks were and decided I was in love with their love.
What are your favourite things about the ship?
Oh, uh, I think I covered that above tbh XD
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
Don't think so! They're not a main ship so I'm not as hooked in to the fandom, though, so I'm not 100% sure what the unpopular opinions are.
Nines/LaCroix
What made you ship it?
Played Bloodlines. Nines was my favourite, LaCroix managed to worm his way into problematic favourite. Peered with interest at some fics on AO3 and realised I had promptly lost my mind and read basically everything on there and then I was just in way too deep.
IIRC it was We Don't Have To Like Each Other To Survive This by @iravaid that made me go, "Fuck it, I ship it."
What are your favourite things about the ship?
They're absolutely brilliant foils. Camarilla Ventrue Prince vs Anarch Brujah street prince. LaCroix has authority on paper but no respect. He's Prince of the city and he's so alone up there in his tower. Nines doesn't want on-paper authority, and so rejects the title of Baron. He wants to be a part of the community, and for the most part, he absolutely is. He has, quite naturally, the respect that LaCroix wants, just not the on-paper power to enact his desires. They each want or need what the other has. If they worked together? Damn, LA's enemies wouldn't stand a goddamn chance.
Ira has a really good post on how they work as foils here.
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
Mmm not a fan of the non-consensual stuff but that's a disclaimer I have to give for any enemies-to-lovers ship, really XD;;
Vykos/Holzmann
Context: Sascha Holzmann is an OC based on a single sentence in Transylvania Chronicles II of Myca renaming themself after a fallen comrade who died fighting the Camarilla. You can read the bio I wrote for him here; the line from TCII is:
What made you ship it?
That little line from TCII. Myca is a walking clusterfuck of identity issues at that point. For them to take their entire name from someone means they must have been incredibly special to them, and that... stands out a lot. A lot of people must have died in that time. What makes this guy special?
What are your favourite things about the ship?
Rambled a fair bit on how I see them together in the bio/write-up linked above. With the caveat that lmao this is 100% a canon/OC ship... mostly it's the quiet support Sascha gives Myca? Myca has been Dracon!Myca for two and a half centuries at this point and I feel they no longer had much of a sense of identity of their own, and Sascha gave them the space to just... exist for a bit. No prying, no trying to Work Things Through, just being there.
Add on his values and what he stood for, wanting that freedom from manipulation, and I can see Myca seeing Sascha as... almost as an ideal? Someone who is free, who can act on their passions and values, who can advocate for themself as an individual, something Myca feels is no longer possible (based on @solivar's line in this phenomenal write-up: "I could not even pretend to be a self-willed child of Desire when my will was manifestly not nor could it ever again wholly be my own.") So the relationship they have, and taking his name afterwards, is a gesture of, "I'm intentionally and deliberately going to take his name as a way to represent his values, because those are values I want and need for myself."
I don't know, it's just a really interesting little tidbit from TCII that could spawn a whole lot of interesting stuff. The original Sascha had to have been so significant to Myca if they took his name, y'know?
Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
lmao no because I made it up entirely.

Olivarry and Snowest for the Ship Opinion Bingo? :)
Olivarry:
They definitely have a mutual crush in canon. Barry shows up on the Arrow with a crush on the Hood and then that crush just gets bigger when he knows its Oliver. Oliver absolutely has a bit of a crush on Barry too at the start of the Flash, talking about how inspiring Barry can be.
They both think the other is so cool. Which, knowing their comics selves hate each other with the passion of a thousand burning suns, is so hilarious to me.
Really to me writing/reading this ship isn't a 'what if these two had feelings for each other' but more of a 'what if these two were emotionally intelligent enough to realize they have feelings for each other?' Oh these two heroes. So smart in some areas, such oblivious idiots in others.
Snowwest:
They were the only two female main characters on the show in S1. I assumed that meant they'd get more interactions than they did once Iris was in the know. But... yeah I was so wrong about that. Because the show writers could lampshade that Iris and Caitlin ought to have interacted and been better friends as time went on, but wow were the writers shit at doing anything about it.
That's fine, I can fix it. I can make them friends and create scenarios where they kiss and find softness and safety with each other that they just don't with the guys in their lives. Where their choices and boundaries matter and no one feels the need to throw away their lives for someone else's story.
I am, perhaps, a bit bitter about the treatment of these two characters over so many seasons. But that's okay. Snowwest fics are typically sweet enough to make me feel better.

1, 2, 9, 23 for salty asks!!
What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?
Both sided K*man. I know I spoke positively of it before but I just really don't like it haha. It doesn't make sense to me and I don't like what it often does to Kyle's character.
I can see why it's popular! Enemies to lovers, especially with how in the past, Kyle and Cartman were written far more as if they were rivals. If you go as far as the very early seasons, Kyle was generally more of the aggressor in their friendship.
But Idk, I joined way after these episodes were the majority, and I felt really drawn in to Kyle as a character written very much like a abuse victim/survivor- Particularly an aggressive one, and for a while I do think that's how he intentionally was being written? As a joke of course, but episodes like Ginger Cow, Kyle's whole arc in season 21, Tegridy Farms, Mexican Joker, and probably a load of others one before and between these just stuck with me too heavily and seem to really hone in on Kyle being an unwilling participant in much of what Eric does to/with him. Kyle feels so withdrawn in many of these, so desperate to not be apart of things, or when he does insert himself, it feels like something he's doing out of obligation, guilt, paranoia even. And I just,,, Don't see that panning out as a shared attraction between them, unless it comes out of some sort of weird trauma response that I would hope Kyle doesn't last in endgame in a story. I have more opinions on this but I don't want to bash the ship too much.
I can see why people like it once again, especially because how seriously you take things in the show and how they affect the characters is not pretty vast. Something like Imagination Land to me can be basically three episodes of sexual harassment but with how South Park writes it's universe and treats the idea of "sucking balls" I guess I can understand why someone can watch that and just view it as their usual dumb rivalry. That's just kind of the thing with shows like South Park where things are fairly surreal and not meant to be taken as seriously- Or maybe they are? Who knows but I'm not gonna hate anyone for coming to a different conclusion.
Still, with all that being said, in the way I've come to characterize Kyle and read the show, Kyle returning attraction to Eric just feels so inconceivable to me and kind of ruins parts of his character I like way too much to throw aside.
2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?
Not sure this counts but like. Pretty much every popular(?) gay ship with Clyde. I just don't ship him with Tolkien or Craig, though I find those ships to still be cute!! I just can't help but prefer them as brotps. Clyde is still bisexual though fuck you personally @erratic-brainrot
He kisses Kenny sometimes :]
9. Most disliked character(s)? Why?
Mr. Hankey I just hate him he grosses me out so much I hate every moment he was on screen I don't care what the point of that one episode where he got canceled was I don't care about the moral we're supposed to learn at all he sucks he deserves it go to hell forever you literal piece of crap i despise you with the passion of a thousand suns
23. Unpopular character you love?
Hehehe I like towelie a lot. I never don't find him funny and I think he's a fun, surprisingly well rounded character. He makes a lot of Randy scenes very tolerable for me.
Based on this ask list :)
#anti kyman#i am not but like. this post probably qualifies as that so i don't want this showing up for anyone who doesn't want to see it#kyle broflovski#eric cartman#towelie#mr hankey#ask#clyde donovan#phantomchill

*deep inhale*
KEEP YO SHIT OUT OF MY SHIP TAG
*screaming into the void*
#God DAMN it y'all...#i just.... why does this ship piss me off so much??#i truly don't even know..... like i love both characters involved in it#but i hate the idea of romance between them with the passion of a thousand suns#I JUST#uuugghhhhh please stop#JUST STAY OUT IF MY SHIP TAG.... ITS ALL I ASK#seven hells

How their relationship gets revealed (iii)
Characters: Akaashi, Oikawa, Sakusa, Tsukishima, Ushijima
Category: fluff
Akaashi Keiji
You’re a best-selling novelist and incredibly famous
Akaashi has been your editor for 3 years now
He’s such a hardworking and dedicated worker
You buy him a lot of presents and he does as well
Constant uploads onto social media with new gifts and meals together
Which happens a lot because you need constant feedback and reviews
And so your readers kind of ship you with him
Lightly, like “Y’all are cute together” and “I wish I have this kind of support”
They don’t actually think you’re together and also don’t want to force it on you
But little do they know that you’ve been dating for over a year now
Because Akaashi is:
1. Kind and caring
2. Really hot/pretty
3. The gentlest person you’ve ever met and
4. Is incredibly professional and can separate work from personal feelings
5. Just look at him
He confessed his feelings for you after your last book sold over a million copies
Because he was drunk after the celebration
But you also liked him and a new relationship was born
Mainly kept on the down low because it’s just easier
You and him both have meddling people around you
But feelings grew day by day
And you desperately want everyone to know your boyfriend is such a wonderful and amazing partner like scream it from the top of your lungs
And so a new book was made
In the dedications page, you wrote “To my other half, thank you for taking care and loving me”
Reader are surprised at the relationship update
But are super happy for you even though they don’t know who it is
The book is a really sweet and cute novel
Readers think it sounds kind of familiar for some reason…
And at the end of the book, it says “To Akaashi Keiji”
(Turns out it was loosely based on yours and his relationship)
The reading community is flipped and your book reaches bestsellers in record time
Oikawa Tooru
Oikawa comes to Japan for a match against the Schweiden Adlers
His return was met with thousands of fans and plenty of photographers and reporters
Every one of his fans were saying how much they love him and hope he wins
And tons of gifts are given left and right
He gives his ever-so charming smile and gracefully accepts them
An interviewer asks him what he missed most in Japan
He rattles off a list
“My family, my friends—Iwa-chan isn’t here though—Japanese food. There’s this wonderful ramen place in my hometown! I also have to see Mattsun and…”
The reporter smiles and nods to his replies
His fans are screaming how they’ll buy anything he wants in the background
He thanks them but that just makes them scream louder
Then his face goes soft, like he’s remembering a really happy thing
“...but I missed [Name]-chan the most.”
The reporter’s eyes widens along with all his fan’s
Even hardcore, and I mean hardcore, fans didn’t know about this
“They’ve been supporting me so much and it’s been ages since my last visit… I just want to see and hug them.”
His small smile is so full of love and affection, even a blind person could see he’s in love
They had zero idea he was in a committed relationship
Most of his fans scream that they hope he has a good relationship
(He ignores the ones that are shrieking“No!”)
Photos of you with him are uploaded after he wins against Schweiden Adlers
He’s smiling like the sun in every single one of them
Sakusa Kiyoomi
Sakusa hates interviews and reporters
Because they keep sticking microphones, which is covered with theirs and everyone else’s germs, into his face
And expect him to be polite when he’s so uncomfortable
So he has a reputation for being a little (read: extremely) difficult for post-match interviews
Nearly everyone had given up
And then all of a sudden, he’s actually civilised in interviews
Like, answering questions and even smiling a little
Everyone’s thinking
“Is he okay?”
“What’s happening?”
“Oh god he’s finally lost it after being in a team with 3 crackheads #PrayForSakusa2020”
In reality, it’s because you’re the one interviewing him
He doesn't want to do it for anyone else, but you insisted that he has to
And now he responds to other reporters as well (albeit incredibly unwillingly)
But he only smiles for you
Fans start noticing after 3 – 4 interviews
“Is it me or is Sakusa really nice when that reporter asks him”
“No I noticed as well”
“DOES HE LIKE THEM ASDISJDW IS MY BOY IN LOVE”
“WHY IS EVERYONE DATING OR IN LOVE WHEN I’M SO ALONE”
After a match, you finish a live report which people can chat on (just say there is one)
It’s in a sheltered place so currently not a lot of people are around
And he doesn't walk away, just keeps standing there
He thinks the camera is off now, and so do you
But is isn’t it’s still on and going live
You’re about to pack up and walk away
But a small tug stops you
It’s Sakusa and the people are going wild because holy shit, is Sakusa actually touching someone??? Our clean freak?? Are my eyes deceiving me??
You take his hand (“What the hell?”) and softly ask “Kiyo? What’s wrong?” (“DID THEY SAY KIYO UGH CARDIAC ARREST”)
He mumbles about how he doesn’t want you to talk to his teammates, even for the sake of interviews (“IS SAKUSA JEALOUS??? OUR DETACHED BOY???”)
You giggle and ruffle his hair, kissing him over the mask (“I AM FAINTING CALL 119”) while saying you need to do your job
And then look over to the cameraman
Whose jaw is on the floor
And you can see the red blinking light from the camera
“Ah, shit”
Tsukishima Kei
His teammates (*cough* Koganegawa *cough*) outed him on social media
You were working overseas and came back after months
The day coincided with a practise match, but Tsukishima was able to excuse himself
So you’re having the time of your life with your saltTM
He’s actually a really nice and sweet boyfriend underneath all that salt and sass
Even made a date course to explore the city
Had a good lunch and some strawberry shortcake in his favourite bakery
You enjoy it immensely, so he was smiling secretly
But then his phone starts blowing up for some reason
When he checks it, there are thousands of questions flooding his messages and social media
Turns out Koganegawa slipped up
He was doing an Instagram Live and when someone asked where Tsukki was
Did he come up with a good excuse?
Nope, he immediately said “Oh, he’s out on a date!”
Everyone’s confused because our salt has a partner?? Since when??
And then he realises he screwed up, especially with how private Tsukki is
The only thing stopping the exposed boy from returning to the gym and throwing hands with the setter is you
You kept saying it’s fine and it’s okay
He reluctantly gives up on planning his revenge (not really though)
You distract him enough to go to the museum he’s going to be working at
And he later uploads a photo of you from behind while you’re reading a dinosaur’s description
(And a separate one where Koganegawa is in a dogeza pose)
Ushijima Wakatoshi
Schweiden Adlers won another match
Ushijima answers interviews, like he does every match
One particular reporter asks the root of his energy and passion
They expected an answer like “thirst for success” or “pride and honour” or something along those lines
But he smiles softly, which breaks everyone watching because they have never seen that before
But the next thing breaks them even more
He says “[Name], my spouse.”
His teammates knew about you but not everyone else
People are spitting their drinks out and absolutely flabbergasted
Even his own teammates because he didn’t seem like the person to say that
He says it’s your first anniversary as a married couple
But he’s overseas so he can’t be with you today
Says that he sent a present and he hopes you’ll like it
Then bows and just walks away to change
Like he hasn’t said the most scandalous thing since the start of his career
Tons of articles and Twitter posts are made about him and this new revelation
To the point where it’s trending #1
He doesn’t care though, and you really don’t either
It wasn’t that big or important of a secret
He just didn't mention it up to now because he didn’t see the need
He doesn’t have to publicise the extent of his love for you because you already know that
The present was a brand-new, top of the line laptop along with a new phone
The same brand as his (awww couple items)
So that he can FaceTime/video call you with HD quality
His teammates have to listen to him being sickeningly cute every night now
And complain about it on interviews
#BestHusbandUshijimaWakatoshi starts trending

MASTERLIST Updated 03/20/2021
COMPLETED AO3 FICS [Kim Taehyung/Park Jimin]
1. The Sound of Your Heart
Summary: There was something so easy about it, it was almost scary. Taehyung didn’t want to feel this way, didn’t want to feel this overwhelming fondness; but not unlike his head, his heart was hard to persuade once it had decided a path. And Taehyung was scared that it had decided on the mute new boy with pretty features and a warm smile.
Words: 144,014
2. All the King's Men
Summary: Castle servants Jimin and Taehyung find themselves involved in a game with the Crown Prince.
Words: 52,531
3. golden haze
Summary: Taehyung watches Jimin’s mouth twist into a pout, forming the word ‘fucking’ with his thick lips before he’s whipping out his translation device again. Taehyung doesn’t have time to stop him when various pornographic images pop up on his holographic screen, Jimin’s eyes widening with intrigue, his mouth falling open at the suggestive images in front of him.
(or: lonely college student taehyung harbors an alien fugitive in his apartment. nothing goes as planned.)
Words: 34,850
4. Drag'on Together (Love Is Its Own Magic)
Summary: “I swear to God, Taehyung if you stop to pick up one more rock because you think it might be some sort of rare stone, I’m leaving you here,” Jimin huffs as he tries to sound intimidating.
“Jiminnie, we both know you wouldn’t survive a minute without me, so stop with the empty threats, okay?” Taehyung replies, happily ignoring his dark-haired friend.
Jimin would argue, he would, if it wasn’t for the fact that Taehyung was right.
or
The time Taehyung and Jimin finds a blue rock and it turns out to be so much more.
Words: 30,554
5. even the weariest river
Summary: It's moments like this that make Taehyung panic. The open derision on each courtier's face, the scorn of his brother as he turns from his prey. The slit of Park Jimin's eyes, just barely open and dark and hateful, as Taehyung swallows and squares his shoulders and says—
"I want to claim him."
The tides of war change, and sweep Taehyung and Jimin along with them.
Words: 152,979
6. i fell in love with the pizza delivery guy (and then i blew him in the bathroom)
Summary: Send your best delivery guy. Preferably cute, preferably packing.
“You're the one who ordered me,” Taehyung says. Not exactly a question; more of a statement.
“Well, I ordered pizza; you just happen to be a delightful bonus,” Jimin clarifies, lips drawn up in a smirk that sets Taehuyung’s blood on fire in a most delectable way. “Although, had I known a pretty face like yours was working there...maybe I would have been more specific with my instructions. At least I know for next time.”
(or, Jimin orders pizza and a little something extra, and Taehyung delivers without really knowing what he's signing up for)
Words: 18,438
7. Grand Jeté
Summary: Refusing to spend another night alone, Taehyung surprises his perfectionist of a boyfriend Jimin at his dance studio with the intent of dragging him home. But their pent-up emotions from spending time apart has the visit ending with a lot of kissing and a little experimenting.

8. Already Midnight
Summary: On New Year's Eve, Taehyung is drunk. So drunk that he doesn't recognize Jimin as his boyfriend. When Jimin kisses him at midnight, Taehyung threatens to call his man- aka Jimin.
Words: 3,951
9. Worth The Risk
Summary: The rules are simple: no kissing on the lips, no petnames, no cuddling after sex, no sleepovers, no labels, and no catching feelings.
It should be simple. In fact, it would be simple, if it weren’t for one tiny thing...Taehyung is pretty sure he’s in love with Jimin. And that’s absolutely against the rules.
Words: 23,645
10. Common Ground
Summary: Taehyung is rich, a little bit bratty, a lot a bit spoiled, and failing calculus. Jimin works full time, tutors, and is a straight-A student. There's a rulebook somewhere that states very clearly that people like Jimin should never associate with people like Taehyung. But rules are meant to be broken. And opposites always, always attract.
Words: 44,136
11. This is not a dream
Summary: He would think they were ships in the night if not for the fact that every night, Jimin lays his head in Taehyung’s lap and Taehyung runs fingers without nerve endings through his hair. If they didn't have this false, teasing closeness long enough to learn every detail of each other's lives, long enough that Jimin is the person Taehyung spends the most time with by a mile.
(Jimin leaves. Two months later, he falls in love with Taehyung.)
Words: 12,370

(Or: "I'm kind of pissed you didn't choose me to fake date, I'm your best friend")
Words: 20,206
13. the whole world is blue
Summary: Taehyung is not going to confess. That kind of thing never ends well. The movies are wrong. It doesn't always turn out to be mutual. Real life isn't so romantic like that.
Words: 10,829

Summary: As a best friend, Jimin will do anything for Taehyung. This includes being his fake boyfriend to ward off the unwanted attention Taehyung is receiving after using a dating app and agreeing to meet someone.
Words: 26,085
15. Define Me in Terms of You
Summary: This is either Taehyung's greatest idea, or his worst.
“So, let me get this straight. You want me to teach you how to play guitar, join a fake band and enter a competition just so that you can impress a guy you like?"
Words: 9,808
16. i just adore you asking for more
Summary: Taehyung is a successful model looking for a discreet release. Jimin is a professional dom who won’t judge his browsing history.
Words: 90,201
17. Sirius
Summary: "Dude, our entire relationship could be an Ed Sheeran album."
Words: 16,955
18. it's your heart i wanna live (& sleep) in

Words: 22,658
19. kissing up on fences (and up on walls, i don't want to fall)
Summary: They’ve always been close, Taehyung and Jimin. Where one went, it would be rare to see them without the other. This is a fact Namjoon knows better than most, having coexisted with them in close quarters for such a long time.
Namjoon had not, however, for all his proclaimed wisdom and prudence, had the foresight to see that they’d become this close.
(or: the five times the other members thought they were dating, and the one time jimin starts to wonder if they really are)
Words: 8,738

Summary: when chaebol/commitment anti-fan park jimin learns he's being married off, he does the smartest thing in the world: hire a fake boyfriend he found on the internet (aka Craigslist's personal ads)
all he needs is just three months with said fake boyfriend to convince his parents to leave him alone. after that, he'll get back to his regular programming.
except, not really.
Words: 209,565
22. Gravity//Oxygen
Summary: He already lost his parents.
He'll be damned if he loses Jimin's smile too.
We stay together.
Always.
Taehyung is out for revenge. And he'll do anything to get it.
Words: 180,321
23. A Screenshot of Youth
Summary: There’s a sharp intake of breath, Taehyung’s grip tightening over Jimin’s with a gentle squeeze. “Jimin,” his voice is serious, and Jimin watches him, strangely endeared. “Let’s be friends.”
And it’s like this, that they begin as friends in the heat of a sweltering summer, twelve years old and too young to think much of it, hands twined together under the blanket of a setting sun.
(In which Jimin and Taehyung grow up together.)
Words: 18,496
24. i'll take the desert, you take the coast

Words: 30,973
25. just to get a taste
Summary: The one where Jeongguk dares Jimin and Taehyung to kiss and it unravels a lot of feelings. But mostly more kisses.

How do you feel about each couple in HoA? Do have your favorites?
Abso-fucking-lutely I have favorites. I'm gonna give you all my feelings on the canon couples (plus Jabian, 'cause even though it wasn't canon it feels like big enough of a thing to count)
LOVE: I absolutely ADORE Fabian/Nina and Patricia/Eddie. Completely superior couples, a step above the rest. Nothing will compare. You can say one was my obsession as a child and one is my obsession now, but I am absolutely in love with the both of them. Fabian/Nina was my childhood obsession, and tbh Fabina was the very first ship I sought out fanfic for, it's how I discovered fanfiction dot net lol. I read SO much fanfic for them back then. And Peddie dominates my current fanfic life; 90% of the fics in my google drive are about them, and they're the only thing I wanna read frankly.
Love: Jerome/Mara and Alfie/Amber, I love them so much. Especially Jara, god I ADORE that couple. From the second Alfie called out Jerome's crush mid-season 1, I was hooked, and child me was anxiously waiting for them to happen. I still adore them. Also Amfie, that was another one of the childhood obsessions that I'm still in love with. I get why some people don't, but I still love them. I'm not currently obsessed with either of these couples like I am the two above, but I love them they're superior.
Neutral/Ambivalent: I have little to no feelings about Amber/Mick, Mick/Mara, and Alfie/Willow. Mickber was fine I guess but like it was very clear they were never going to last. Mickra had their moments but tbh I was just biding my time with them until Jara finally happened. And Walfie's cute I guess but I simply have no feelings about them.
Dislike: Fabian/Joy and Jerome/Willow. Nope. No thank you! I simply would rather not. I do not like. Not a fan.
Hate: I absolutely completely hate Jerome/Joy and Fabian/Mara with the fiery burning passion of a thousand suns. Thinking about them makes me viscerally upset and seeing them makes me feel like a bull seeing red. I reject them like a bad organ. Nope nope absolutely not. Cannot stand either of them whatsoever. If I see content featuring either of them I will close it SO fast. Like a surefire way to get me to absolutely never read your fic is to feature one of these two couples. I simply will not interact with them, I hate them so much. I don't want to look at them, I don't want to acknowledge them. And I have to stop myself from going on further or else I'm just going to make myself upset. Bottom line: I really really really hate them.

Hi Fourangers,
First of all, I love your blog so much. It's like going through a history back when Naruto Manga chapters were released weekly and your reviews were so Golden, Hilarious and spot-on. Am a new fan though (especially an SNS fan), I just got into this fandom only this year. I don't know if you'll answer my ask, but I just wanted to try and ask you few questions and I pray that you might answer me....
1. Since you've written in a post that you were active in the eastern part of the fandom, How was chapter 698 received in Japan? Because this is the chapter I inherently realized they both love each other. Yeah, I was too late but somehow whenever they interact with each other in previous chapters I always find them to be 'Weird' for just to be friends. Chapter 698 is just blatantly obvious that they love each other. Considering Homophobia and Shounen genre, I have no idea how it was perceived over there back then in 2014.
2. Which scene made you to ship SNS?
3. As an SNS'er how do you feel about the ending, where everyone was married off when they were just 19 just to make some shitty sequel??? As a new fan, I felt betrayed and It would've been perfect if they had stopped at chapter 699, leaving an open ending.
4. How do you face with the accusation about Naruto and Sasuke as brothers and we, SNS'ers are Incest shippers??? I don't care about that Indra and Ashura thing. But Naruto himself told he considers Sasuke as his Brother couple of times. And in Chapter 699, Sasuke acknowledged, 'He finally understood what it meant'.... It's the only thing that confuses me and I don't even have an answer!!! Plus, Kishi himself gave an interview that he based Sasuke on his Brother... I really wonder how he gave such an interview when he literally made them wear necklaces with each other's faces.
5. How was Naruto and Sasuke's sexuality perceived in the fandom back then??? Man!! Kishimoto just made lot of comic reliefs on their sexuality by making Sasuke on Sai jutsu, Naruto not interested in Icha Icha but making Reverse Harem no Jutsu, Naruto was angry when Konohamaru made Boy on Boy jutsu whereas he had no problem with him doing it. LOL. And all those homoerotic posters. What do you think about their sexuality, personally??
6. Why did Kishi had to develop their bond as Soulmates with some unintentional or intentional romantic undertones, if he was eventually going to pair them up with girls??? He easily could've gave many such romantic tropes to other girls and keep the bond between N and S as purely friendship or brothers. It still would've made sense.
7. Final one, Was Naruto really Nosebleeding when Kurama made a joke about Sasuke's kiss in Chapter 572???? We had a lot of heated discussion with other shippers where they claim that it was just a splotch of snot.
Sorry for the lengthy ask....... I am so eager to know your answers and I don't want to spam your ask box by sending multiple asks.
Thanks 😊😊😊
Hey yo! Welcome new SNS fan! I'm so glad that you joined us and I'll try to answer as best as I can. I'm not very active here on tumblr (except browsing lol) but your ask was such a delight to read.
1. I honestly don't remember. I think I didn't follow the japanese boards until the eventual 699-700 disaster. People were craving for reactions and I was curious about it too lol. And well...it's been years, I doubt I'll be able to find the reactions from that time. Imo, most readers don't care much about pairings, they just wanted to read about power-ups and abilities and the basic Naruto Vs Sasuke. Though there are some backhanded jokes about how gay Naruto is for Sasuke.
2. Hah. It's going to be very anti-climatic but it was when Naruto and Sakura were eating in Ichiraku Ramen. Naruto just used Rasenshuriken against Kakuzu and he busted his arm. Sakura was healing his arm and her attention was focused on Naruto. I used to be a NaruSaku shipper so I thought "Oh hey! This is the moment that Naruto would have a candid romantic moment!" But nope. He talked about Sasuke. And I was already getting suspicious about Sasuke's feelings towards Naruto ya know? And the whole "SASUKE IS MIINEEEEEE" in Orochimaru's lair. It was that moment I thought "you only have Sasuke in your head don't you, Naruto?" and started shipping SNS.
3. Hooo boy was I surprised when it was suddenly revealed that they had the basic heteronormative, boring marriage with bunch of clones of themselves. Everyone thought that it was almost like a bad fanfiction come true and some thought that it was fake. It was a pandemonium lolololol. I also thought that it was too lame to be true and lo and behold, when it came true I was floored. And then whenever Kishimoto threw new material, I got insanely pissed off because S*arada and B*ruto becoming pairing material is ok because they are a girl and a boy, and then they paralleled with Naruto and Sasuke which are only FRIENDS because they are both men. ARGH. Open ending was what Kishimoto planned from the very beginning but wrote a sequel to earn more money.
In that aspect, I made peace with it because of the whole anime/manga industry. I learned that, as a mangaka, you don't earn a lot of money with selling books, but rather with merchandise and profiting with sales right. And that guy have a family to raise, have two kids (which is hilarious about how B*ruto movie is his self-insert story), he needs a steady income. Also, I read reports about how anime studios are so poor and animators don't receive a decent income not to mention they are overstaffed and tired, and B*ruto is a good money cow for them to earn money so they can invest later on other anime they have more passion about it. So even though I hate this story with a strength of thousands suns, they are putting meal on people's tables and making them pay rents. I'm ok.
4. Lemme roll my eyes because in the Last movie they said that Hinata is related to Kaguya and so is the Uzumaki and Uchiha clan so they are all related woo hoo. But in the aspect of brothers because reincarnations bla bla bla, didn't Naruto himself said that he's no longer that brother, he's himself? Hmm...I gotta re-read it. One day. Maybe. lol. But I'm sure that he said "Sasuke is not my brother but I'm sure we'll understand well as friends" so there. Honestly, there are a lot of interviews out there and a lot of them are fake, so I'd always take the interviews with a grain of salt lololol. I do know from artbooks that Kishimoto wanted to create Sasuke as a rival-esque character and that was it. As he was developing Sasuke and Naruto's relationship, since he liked the whole yin-yang concept, whenever he wrote Naruto's story, Sasuke's was developed at the same time as his shadow.
5. I can tell from Naruto Forums (I used to participate back in that day) MOST of the non-shippers thought it was gay as hell, but you know...it was a relic of that time. While they thought it was gay, they didn't put too much thought about you know? Because it was shounen, and we knew that it was a joke that it couldn't be taken seriously. Of course, in the SNS fandom, we did make more analysis and there were a lot of instance when Naruto and Sasuke's sexuality was questioned. Some other non-shippers also thought that Naruto was totes gay for Sasuke (including a IRL friend).
Imo, Naruto is definitely bisexual in my view. Sasuke I think he's asexual or gay. He's attracted to Naruto, but mostly because of his connection to him, not because of his physical attributes, so yeah...asexual. Or Pansexual. Sasuke is more complicated lmao. Imo, Naruto could be pansexual too, come to think about it. Yeah, I guess both being pansexual can be valid.
6. He developed Naruto and Sasuke being soulmates from the very beginning, that was proven in his comments in artbooks and in the manga. He probably created with the intention of making it purely platonic, going beyond physical ties. Then he shot himself on the foot by drawing Naruto thinking about Sasuke on bed, talking about how Sasuke is cool, meanwhile Sasuke waxing poetic about how Naruto saved him. What gives? Lol. Yeah, I think he got too enamored writing their relationship that he didn't have time to write romantic ones. What I noticed that Sakura's popularity never was really high, so I could see some editors putting their fingers all over it and making her less relevant. Also, Kishimoto didn't know how to handle her, so when she got her time to shine was the whole fake confession disaster. Coupled with Kishimoto sexism and, in his words (Kurenai's flashback), women are useful to spout more babies, women was never really relevant in his story, unfortunately. Even Kaguya who was technically the big bad boss, was never really fleshed out in comparison to Madara. So the null het romantic moments it's not because he wanted to elevate SNS moments, it's more about how he's incompetent about it. It's either Hinata slowly elevating to a relevant status because forced interaction (Pain's sacrifice and Neji's death) or Sakura being obligated to be pining over Sasuke because she's a girl. It's even more painful to see that, if we ignore B*ruto, both girls are shown to be just talking with their kids and dusting shelves, basically being housewives, even though thorough the story (especially Sakura) it was implied that both of them have much more potential than being their husband accessories.
7. It was a splotch of snot. I can confirm myself lol. Whenever the chapter is out and fans would scan it to scanlate it, the editor usually would amp up contrast to max. So usually the lines get much more thicker than usual, when you read the official release which gets straight from the source, you can notice how the lines are more delicate.
Oh lol...but then we also have a lot of controversy about translating style. THAT one is a whole new can of worms to open.
Man I had fun answering your questions! Please send more :P

One Day: Fives x Reader
"Hey," you whispered, taking a seat next to your favorite ARC trooper. Things have been off lately in the 501st. Ahsoka's been gone for a while now and the boys are finally starting to pick up their momentum again. Losing their little sister wasn't easy for any of them. Today was one of the few days the 501st got a break. Just as you expected, Fives was awake before the break of dawn, waiting for the sun to rise over the Naboo country side. Having a day off on Naboo was a favorite among the boys, as it was much more laid back than Coruscant, though unfortunately, the break would soon be over and they would be shipped out later that morning.
Fives looked up at you, his legs dangling off a valley cliff facing westward. Seeing you brought a smile to his face, but he remained silent as you sat down next to him. The moment you hit the ground, your shoulder was met with his arm and the side of his head rested against yours. He closed his eyes a took a deep breath. For once, you sensed tranquility in him.
"I think we can end it," he finally spoke, his head still pressed against yours.
"End what?"
"The war. Ringo Vinda would be a huge step in the right direction and-"
You pushed your index finger against his mouth and softly shook your head, "Remember what I told you. We must take things as they come. If we shoot that high, it will only hurt if we don't achieve."
Fives closed his eyes and nodded, placing his head back where it was, "The last time I shot high, I ended up exceeding my goals," he chuckled, pressing a kiss into your cheek, "I wanted to go on a date with my General and now she's my girlfriend!"
You rolled your eyes and smiled, "Once again, the ARC outplays the Jedi."
Fives mumbled incoherently into your shoulder as his playfully pulled your body onto the ground, allowing you to lay on top of him. You hummed, letting him know you had no idea what he just said.
"Would shooting for making my general mine forever be too high of a shot?" He asked, tilting his head towards yours.
His beautiful honey brown eyes met yours and you shrugged at his question.
"I think it's worth the shot," he smiled, reaching down into his holster, "what do you say?"
You looked at him baffled for a moment before breaking eye contact and looking at the ring between his fingers. Quickly, you sat up and gasped, "Shut up."
"I'm being serious, (Y/N)."
"Fives," your voice cracked, a few tears beginning to well in your eyes. You couldn't get out any other words. You nodded rapidly at him, prompting your favorite smile. He slowly placed the ring on your finger.
"I know you always say day by day, but I don't want a day without you. Ever."
You held your hand up and admired the ring, wondering how he got enough money together for something so beautiful. The glow of the rising sun made the ring sparkle. "You did an amazing job with it," you smiled, your gaze still locked on the ring, "I just wish we could have an engagement-moon!"
Fives chuckled and puller you closer to him, "We'll get one. Someday."
You two spend the last moments of peace together watching the final minutes of the sunrise. Everything was perfect.
Before you knew it you were on a transport to Ringo Vinda with the men of the 501st. The Republic needed extra assistance on the planetary wide space station, so who else would they call besides the "elite" clone company. Fives took his helmet off and exhaled, giving you a soft grin. You looked around at the other men and noticed Tup frantically tapping his foot.
"Everything alright, Tup?" you asked, knowing damn well he wasn't one to be too on edge over a simple battle.
"Just jittery, sir," he quickly responded, diverting his attention away from you. You looked at Fives and shrugged.
The rest of the transport ride was spend sitting in a narrow hallway with the legion, sitting across from Fives. You both had your legs extended, pushing your feet together playfully.
"Ready boys?" Anakin asked as the ship landed on the top of the space station.
You winked at Fives, something you always do before a battle before hopping out of the ship.
In typical 501st fashion, you all had control of another command center soon after arrival. All in all, you were enjoying this battle. There were minimal casualties and you got to fight along side other legions and Jedi Generals.
You, Anakin, and the twin Generals, Tiplar and Tiplee, gathered in the center of the room to discuss the take over of the central command center. The plan seemed pretty straight foward, just a typical attack from all angles alone then together strategy. With all the different corridors though, this meant sperating the 501st into three groups.
"We could put Fives in command of the best troops in the legion. I'll take Appo and you can take Rex. It would be solid group split," you suggested, hating the fact that ultimately, for victory you needed to be separated from Fives for a braid moment.
"I agree," Anakin nodded, "Let's get to it. I'll let Fives know."
Putting the mission at hand in front of your attachment, you led your men towards the east corridor and began the task at hand.
"Oh maker," you mumbled as you reached central commend. Thousands of driods surrounded the Sepertist general.
"Where is everyone else?!" Appo yelled through his comlink, startling you.
As if it was on que, Anakin's and Fives' groups entered the hangar, pushing through the droids like knives through warm butter.
Appo led the men into the heat of battle as you fought your way towards Fives.
"Has any one ever told you that you're the most fantastic ARC this army's ever seen?" You smiled, deflecting blasts away from Fives.
"Well," he dodged a blast and shot down a droid, "this gorgeous Jedi tells me that all the time."
An explosion stopped you before you could respond. "I'm gonna go help them," you groaned, rushing away from Fives' side. On your way to aid the struggling men, you noticed Tup standing in the middle of the battle field, frozen. "C'mon Tup!" You yelled as you ran past him.
Fives turned his head to your direction to make sure you made it to the other side safely when he saw the unthinkable. "Tup!" he screamed as he watched his brother shoot down General Tiplar, then point his blaster towards you. "Tup, stop" he screamed louder, lunging towards him as he managed to get one blast right into your shoulder.
You muttered an explicit then turned around, seeing Fives laying on top of Tup and not too far away, Tiplar's body.
"What the kriff?!" you spit through your teeth with venom, wincing at the pain in your shoulder.
Before you could get an explanation on what happened, Anakin commanded retreat and everyone fell back into that command room you gained control of previously.
After settling Tup with Kix and Rex, Fives rushed to your side and knelt down next to the step you were sitting on, "Are you okay?"
"You were in charge of him, Fives!" you whined moving your body slowly away from his.
Fives glanced up to make sure there wasn't anyone near you, "Cyare, I'm going to get to the bottom of this. You're not in too much pain, right?"
You shook your head, "Are you okay?"
"I'm okay and just as confused as you are," he placed his hands on your thigh and tapped, "He's a good friend of both of us. We'll figure this out." He got up and went back over to Fives to check on Tup. You grinned as you watched him walk away. Every time you see him in his full ARC armor, you notice he walks with more confidence, which you find beyond attractive. Once he was out of your line of sight, you closed your eyes to do some quick meditation, thinking maybe the force could guide you through Tup.
Internal Conflict, huh, you thought to your self, wondering what could have caused it. Without thinking, you walked up to the room where Tup was being held.
"Tup, has everything been al-"
You were cut off by Tup lunging at you, yelling inaudibly. Fives quickly sprung between you and Tup to protect you and pushed Tup onto the ground. Your lover turned around, with worry in his eyes. Still shocked with what happened, you retreated back into the command room, asking for Kix to come with.
"You need to bring him to the Jedi Council," you explained to Kix, "unless you can find something that's wrong."
Kix scrunched his forehead, "I'm not sure General. They don't train you for something like this. Maybe a trip to Kamino might be a better idea. Besides, they know clone anatomy better than anyone."
"That works, but (Y/N), we need to get you to the Jedi Council," Anakin butted in. He stopped you before you could give a reason not to, "We can't let that get infected."
"I am just as much as general here as you are!"
"The 501st is going to be on leave after this battle. You won't be without us long!" Fives chimed in, giving you a wink, "what boys? We have maybe two more rotations left on this piece of junk!"
After enough begging, you finally complied...until you noticed Appo was escorting you to your ship. "I thought Fives was escorting me back to Coruscant," you noted, stopping in your tracks.
"I'm sorry, General. But Fives was ordered to return to Kamino with Tup."
You pressed your lips together, "Oh! Well I forgot to give him his blaster back! I'll be right back!"
Appo looked at you confused, "General, what blaster?"
"Yes," you nodded, rushing back to the command room. You made you way to Fives and pulled him out of the room, trying to keep your action on the down low.
"I know, I know. I wanted to escort you but-" you cut him off with a kiss, moving your hands up the back of his head and softly tugging at his hair. His hands rested on your hips, pulling you closer to him. You pulled back slightly.
"Please stay safe," you murmured, giving him a gentle kiss.
He trailed his kisses across your cheek and stopped at your ear and whispered, "Anything for you cyare."
You pulled him in for a passionate hug, "I need to get going."
"Hey, you need to be safe too. That was a pretty damn good kiss, better not be the last!"
"Fives," you sighed, "Don't say that."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
As you walked away to the ship, you glanced back at Fives, assuring yourself that it would be okay. Right now, the only thing you wanted was for your arm to heal for you could get back to the battlefield with Fives. But in that moment, the best thing you could look forward too is sleeping in your Jedi Temple quarters again.
The next morning, you woke up and immediately looked at your holopad, hoping to see a new message from Fives. Nothing. Only a message from Jesse, asking if you would like to join the boys at 79's that night.
"Guess Ringo Vinda ended sooner than I thought," you thought to yourself, getting ready for the day.
Once nightfall hit, you began to get ready for a night of fun. As you put the finishing touches on your makeup, there was a knock of panic on your quarters door. It was Anakin.
"Have you heard from Fives?!" He said in a rush, bursting into your room with Rex.
You gave them a confused look, "I actually haven't. Figured he was exhausted from the mission. Is everything alright?"
Anakin stopped, "You haven't heard anything?"
"Guys, what's going on?" You asked, concern in your voice.
"Sit down," Anakin sighed sitting on the edge of your bed, "look, Rex and I know about you and Fives. We think you can help."
"Help with what?"
Anakin and Rex looked at each other, then at you, "Fives tried to kill the chancellor and he's on the run. We think maybe you can talk to him."
You looked at them in shock, "you can't be right."
~
"She was supposed to be here already," Jesse noted, taking another sip of his drink.
"I'm okay with that. Gives us more time to think of what we are going to tell her," Kix replied, "besides, she won't believe us."
Jesse chuckled, "that would be a first."
"Anyway, I'm going to head to the 'fresher. I don't care if she has the hots for Fives, I still need to look presentable in front of her!"
"Keep dreaming," Jesse snorted, taking another sip of his drink.
Kix rolled his eyes and made his way to the refresher. Just as he began to check for any imperfections, the door opened.
"Looks like the 501st is back on Coruscant," the clone said, approaching.
"Yeah, the craziest thing happened on Ringo Vinda," Kix responded, turning to face to clone.
"I know," he mumbled, taking off his hat, revealing his identity.
"Fives?!"
~
"I'm so sorry Kix," you sighed, "I was almost ready to go but something came up with Fives and i-"
"I know. I'm sending over coordinates right now. He wants you to meet him there," Kix informed you, sending over the coordinates.
"Thank you Kix," you softly smiled into the comlink after turning it off. You turned to head out of the crowded bar but stopped, looking back at Kix. He looked at you with sympathy, yet you could sense his hurt. Fives was hurting, hurting enough to effect his closest brothers.
"Good luck," he mouthed out before motioning you off.
You gave him a half assed smile and took off, desperate to find your lover. On the way to the coordinates, your mind was blank. Not a single thought racing. That was the only way you could get through this confusing nightmare.
The coordinates weren't anything much. Just an old abandoned hangar in the lower levels. With some hesitation, you leaped off your speeder and entered the hangar. Though you couldn't see him, you sensed his presence.
"Fives?" You called out, slowly making your way deeper into the hanger.
"Oh cyare," he sighed behind you, throwing his body into yours. He deepened the embrace and nuzzled his head into your neck, "please believe me."
"Of course I trust you, love," you whispered, running your fingers down his spine. You frowned slightly at the sight of his missing hair. There had to be a story behind it, but you didn't want to probe. Becides, hair grows back. "Fives, what happened?"
He struggled to get words out without weeping, "can we go find some cheap motel to lay down and talk. I just want to hold you close, lay under blankets and explain everything. I'd feel safer there, I'd-"
You pressed two fingers against his lips, "anything you need, we'll make it happen. I promi-"
"FIVES! Let her go!" Screamed Anakin from across the room, Rex accompanying him.
Anakin used the force to rip you out of Fives' arms and towards him. "Fives, how can we trust you alone with her after what you did."
"Anakin!" You yelled, slapping his hand and rushing towards Fives. Anakin couldn't let that happen. He scrambled to the closest control panel and activated a ray shield, making it impossible to reach Fives.
"Fives, explain yourself." Anakin demanded, getting a look of rage from you.
"There's a big plan!" Fives began to rant, "A plan to kill the Jedi! It's in the mind of every clone! The chancellor told me. This is bigger than anyone could imagine. You've got to believe me!"
"Fives, why try to assassinate the chancellor?" Anakin asked as calm as possible, ignoring your attempts to break free of the ray sheild.
Before he could explain himself, Commander Fox and his battalion barged into the hangar, weapons drawn. "Surrender Fives!" Fox yelled, getting closer to Fives.
"No no no!" Fives screamed, holding up the pistol he managed to sneak off your belt while he was hugging you.
"FIVES PUT IT DOWN!" You yelled at the top of your lungs, fearing the worst.
Fives looked at you, then back at Fox, then back at you, but it was too late. As his eyes made contact with you again, a single shot went straight into his chest. The pistol dropped to the floor, and not long after Fives.
You screamed his name in agony as Rex and Anakin rushed to his side. Rex cradled Fives as you watched in horror behind the ray shield.
"Get her out of there," Anakin commanded to Fox.
As Fox shot your ray shield down, Fives looked up at Rex, gasping for air, but managed to get out, "Take care of her for me. Please."
The second you were free from the shield, you ran to your lovers limp body. Rex quickly handed him over to you. Tears trickled from your face as you began to stroke his cheek.
"Fives, Fives, listen to me," you struggled to get out. "Hang in there, you're going to be okay. We're going to be okay." You held up your hand with the engagement ring. "See, we're going to have our someday, together. And that someday is super soon and, and, and." You kept rapid firing anything you think could spark live in him, but you knew he was too far gone. You watched a few tears slowly make their way down his face.
With every last bit of energy he had left in him, he softy squeezed your hand, "I love you." he whispered, before fading away.
"No. No. No. Fives Fives," you gasped, shaking his body, "no no don't leave me don't leave me."
"(Y/N)," Anakin sighed behind you.
You closed your eyes, rested your head on your lovers dead chest, and began to bawl in true pain.
Rex took a knee besides you and slowing began to rub your back, making sure he does everything he can to fulfill the promise he made his best friend.

batman forever riddlebat ship meme
(This one was inevitable. God, do I love this movie. @heroes-etc gave me questions from this ship meme.)
2. Who is the most insecure and what makes them feel better?
The obvious answer here is Edward because he is... clearly and pathologically insecure in his identity and requiring outside approval. You could argue he gets over this once he adopts his flamboyant supervillain identity, but as soon as he steps out of it to be Edward Nygma again he’s as self-conscious as ever. On some level his Bruce cosplay at the Nygmatech party is probably supposed to be a dig at his former idol, but it’s pretty transparent that he’s paranoid about not measuring up, especially once Bruce actually walks in.
As for what makes him feel better, two obvious high points of his self-esteem right off the bat (lol) are when Bruce is giving him positive attention in his intro scene, and directly afterwards when he’s murdering his boss for ragging on him.
Of course, neither external validation or murder is, like, a permanent solution to insecurity. Obviously. If they ever got together Bruce would probably make him go to therapy, which would be incredibly hypocritical because, as Dr. Meridian points out in this movie, that’s not exactly something Bruce is doing. Although in Bruce’s defense, if you count the novelizations as canon for this continuity, the psychiatrist Alfred hired for him as a child basically wrote him off as a lost cause that was going to inevitably self-destruct at some point in adulthood. So I can see why he’d think therapy isn’t for him.
"Young Bruce may seem quite the stalwart, but there’s still a child beneath that veneer of calm acceptance [...] The day will come when that veneer crumbles, and the boy reacts to the memory of his ordeal. Such matters may be postponed, but not indefinitely. And the longer this one is delayed, the greater the damage will be to his psyche.”
“Still,” Alfred pressed. “How do you think this will all come out? Off the record, if you prefer.”
Another pause. “I am not terribly optimistic,” the stout man admitted. “But I assure you, I will do my best.”
Alternatively, Bruce just lets Edward borrow his clothes and calls it a day. It’s less time consuming than therapy and both the movie and novelization demonstrate how into that Edward is.
He was murmuring to himself, “We’ll probably be dining at Wayne Manor together.” He envisioned Bruce sitting across from him, and began to launch into a narrative [...] “Yes. Yes. A Party in my honor? I should have rented a tuxedo. What?” he couldn’t believe it, “One of yours, Bruce?” He gave it a moment’s thought and then shrugged. “Why not? We are the same size.”
3. Who is the most romantic?
Uh, not Bruce! Batman Forever is the most thoughtfully romantic he gets in the entire series, and even here his only two dates ideas are “whatever Gotham social event my secretary tells me I need a date for” and “coming on to my date in my alternate identity to see if she loves me enough not to cheat on me with Batman.” Also, he vacillates between staunchly refusing to do any flirting at all and dishing out the least romantic pick-up lines possible.
You say “bad writing,” I say “totally in character for a hot rich guy who knows that this is as hard as he has to try to get into someone’s pants.” Bruce might love his partner with the intensity of a thousand dying suns, but he’s still sending Alfred to buy all their Valentine’s Day presents. His idea of a romantic evening for two is finally trusting someone enough to tell them his secret identity. If he’s done that already, or they already figured it out, then his playbook is over. That’s clearly the only romantic fantasy he’s ever allowed himself.
(I was going to say he does this once every movie, but he actually never does this in Batman & Robin specifically because he doesn’t actually care about Julie Madison. She proposes to him and he gets her name wrong while shooting her down. Add that to the “Bruce Wayne isn’t romantic” box.)
The ridiculous amount of magazine cut-outs populating Edward’s apartment indicates that he probably has a very vibrant and extensive set of fantasies involving Bruce, which is hinted at a couple times in the novelization.
Edward would certainly know him when he saw him. He’d spent enough time anticipating the moment, after all [...] Finally he was going to be meeting Bruce Wayne face-to-face, and he had every moment of the encounter scripted [...] He’d rehearsed it to perfection in his mind for weeks upon months.
In the grand scheme of things... in the fabulous, sweeping, intertwining destinies of Bruce Wayne and Edward Nygma, such a slip would not even rate a footnote.
He becomes suddenly and painfully aware that if Bruce Wayne walked away without Edward Nygma by his side, then that would be it. It would be finished. All these weeks, months... indeed, a lifetime of planning... and it was crumbling under him just like that.
Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean his fantasies are all romantic in the traditional sense of the word. This is a man who was charmed by Harvey holding a charity circus hostage with some kind of graffitied missile warhead. Tonally, there’s not even that much of a difference between his crush collages and his riddle death threats.
What’s weirder, using a magazine cutout of someone you hate to make a pop-up card of their face, or using a magazine cutout of someone you love to replace the anatomically correct heart in the cardiovascular system diagram you keep in your apartment/arcade/makeshift laboratory? Probably the former, since it was made with the express purpose of Bruce actually seeing it. Although presumably Edward was planning on taking Bruce to his apartment at some point? And in the novelization, he actually drags Bruce into his cubicle to look at his Wayne Shrine.
He grabbed Bruce’s arms and shouted “No, don’t leave me! I need you!” [...] Bruce was thunderstruck as he was pulled partway into Edward’s office... and then he caught sight of the shrine.
Edwards’s head bobbed eagerly. Now, finally, Bruce would understand the depth of Nygma’s devotion to his idol. He would see how important he was to Nygma.
Notably, the only thing that upsets Bruce about the fact that one of his employees has a serial killer wall dedicated to him at their work station (@heroes-etc: realistically.... IS this the first time this has happened? i doubt it.) is the fact that the shrine includes a picture of him taken directly after his parents’ death, which is obviously a huge trigger for Bruce’s PTSD.
Wayne’s gaze zeroed in on the picture of himself as a young man.
The eyes of Wayne the elder locked with Wayne the younger, and when he slowly turned his scrutiny back to Edward Nygma, Edward could feel the temperature in the cubicle drop to subzero.
Later, once Bruce isn’t being actively reminded of the most traumatizing day of his life, he reflects that he could probably relate to Edward’s specific brand of crazy, and hopes that it’s not too late to try again (it is).
He paused momentarily at Edward Nygma’s cubicle, thinking about the intensity he’d seen in the man’s eyes the other day. Nygma’s ideas might have been a bit odd, but that sort of passion—if properly channeled—could accomplish miracles. That was something Bruce Wayne certainly knew better than anyone else. Perhaps after this fiasco was the time to take Nygma aside under less-pressured circumstances. Start again...
With any other character, I would call bull on their being this unphased by someone being obsessed enough with them to build a stalker shrine, but, like. It’s Batman. He probably has a stalker shrine to Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman in his cave somewhere. When they start dating, Edward mails the weirdest magazine cutout valentines to his office on the regular, and every time Bruce has to assure his staff that it’s not a ransom letter and it’s just “his boyfriend being romantic.”
9. What is the most embarrassing thing they have done in front of each other?
I mean, by most people’s standards, any one of the things that Edward does in front of Bruce could easily be the most embarrassing thing to happen to them in their lifetime. But for the most part, Edward seems blissfully free of that kind of self-consciousness. He accidentally introduces himself to Bruce as “[extended moaning sound] Bruce Wayne” and shakes it off without even registering his mistake. Even when he feels like Bruce has rejected him and his project, his emotional state is more shocked, saddened, and angry than it is ashamed. He does apologize to Bruce, during the scene where they first meet, for holding on to his hand too long during their handshake. And by “handshake” I mean that Bruce extends his hand to be shaken, and Edward just grabs on and holds it without any motion whatsoever for the entire first half of their conversation. Which might be the only time he ever apologizes in the entire movie. So I’ll say that was his moment of embarrassment.
Bruce only really embarrasses himself in front of Alfred, but Edward does manage to trick Bruce into getting scanned by his mind reading device at the Nygmatech party. Being tricked in general would be pretty awkward for Bruce, since this movie goes out of its way to show the audience how SMART and CLEVER and KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT BRAINWAVES Bruce is at every opportunity. But being tricked into getting your mind read is about a million times more embarrassing than just running into a wall like some kind of Looney Tune. Obviously having access to Bruce’s mind allows Edward to figure out that his former boss/current obsessee is Batman, but also it’s just got to be super weird in there. Bruce is a bizarre man.
12. What first changes when it starts getting serious?
Whether he’s idolizing Bruce or plotting his destruction, Edward is still seeing the subject of his lifelong obsession as a larger than life exaggeration of the real man. Some of that pedestal would probably survive into the beginning of a romantic relationship, but by the time they got serious Edward would have had to recognize that Bruce has both positive and negative traits. He would also have had to grapple with the fact that the man he once assumed would make everything in his life better is a lot of work to be around, especially in this movie’s continuity where the trauma of his family’s death and his guilt over allowing enemies like Joker to die are genuinely affecting Bruce’s day-to-day functionality.
(A lot of things, Chase.)
Edward’s introduction scene demonstrates that he doesn’t see Bruce as having these kinds of problems. His Escapism Wish Fulfillment Device TM is clearly a very personal project for him, since he, you know. Is kind of already living in a Bruce-centric fantasy world.
When he’s pitching it to Bruce, however, he states that he doesn’t think someone like Bruce would ever need to escape reality (which could just be ingratiating flattery, but he barely seems aware of what he’s saying at the time because he’s too busy staring with his mouth open at Bruce putting on glasses).
(Side note: an interjection from @heroes-etc
Anyway, moving on.)
Obviously we know he’s wrong, since Bruce escapes his reality every night by dressing up like a bat and scaring people. Normally that’s just subtext (or me being cynical and creating subtext), but Batman Forever introduced a hot psychiatrist who is constantly poking at Batman for being a power fantasy created by a traumatized mind to cope with intense feelings of helplessness in childhood.
The novelization makes it clear that it’s not the illusion of perfection that Edward is attracted to, however. The picture of Bruce in Crime Alley is what kickstarts Edward’s obsession, not because Bruce seemed flawless but because he seemed to be going through similar pain as Edward (whatever Edward’s pain even IS in this continuity). So I think recognizing Bruce’s issues would be less of a dealbreaker and more of a point of connection, were they to get serious.
He saw, there in Bruce Wayne’s face, an intensity that mirrored his own. An anger, a frustration at the hand that fate had dealt him. There were no tears on Bruce’s face. Instead there was a smoldering intelligence that Edward intuitively sensed was on par with his own.
There was something in Bruce’s eyes, something in that gaze. There was Bruce, in a moment of raw emotion, his parents just having been cruelly taken from him. And there was no self-pity. Just cold, hard anger.
[...] Ed still had the newspaper with him when he was walking home from school. Not that he needed it to read; the contents were safely locked away in his skull, thanks to his photographic memory. But he wanted to clip out the articles and pictures about Bruce Wayne. He found the young man fascinating, as if he had discovered a soulmate of sorts.
For Bruce, on the other hand, getting serious presumably just means attempting to include Edward more and more in the found family he builds in the latter half of the 90’s Batman movies. Alfred approving a love interest is not quite as tantamount in this continuity as it is sometimes (Micheal Gough Alfred is pretty laid back), but Bruce is still spending all of his non-Batman, non-socialite time with his butler. So if Edward wants to hang out with Bruce, he has to either get on Alfred’s good side or prepare for a lot of “romantic quality time” where his boyfriend’s dad is glaring at him from the background.
Dick is less important to get on the good side of, since he and Bruce argue all the time in these movies (apparently one of the proposed scripts for Batman & Robin was Bruce kicking Dick out of the house and making him go to college, where Dick would cope with his dad-related anger by bullying his psychology professor Dr. Crane into becoming a supervillain. I personally feel like I deserved to see that Scarecrow origin). So if Dick doesn’t like Bruce’s new boyfriend, it’s just one more thing for them to be catty to each other about.
Alfred’s niece Barbara Wilson on the other hand (who is adorable as a fusion of Barbara Gordon and Julia Pennyworth, do not @ me) would be absolutely vital for Edward to win over, because her opinion could easily either make or break his standing with her uncle. Also Bruce decided to adopt her within five minutes of meeting her, so he’s obviously fond.
19. Where do they go on their first date?
Edward’s fantasy sequence in the novelization makes it obvious enough that he would really, really like to have dinner at Wayne Manor. Hanging out at someone’s house isn’t really a traditional first date, especially if one of you is a billionaire who could have taken you literally anywhere, but clearly none of that matters to Bruce, because that’s exactly the first date he invites Vicki Vale on in Batman (1989).
It’s pretty painfully awkward (“You want to know the truth? I don’t think I’ve ever been in this room before”) until Bruce gives up on the formality and takes her down to eat the rest of their courses with Alfred in the kitchen.
I feel like his first date with Edward could probably go the same way, with a few major differences. One, Edward would have been super enthused about eating in the fancy dining hall, and Bruce would have only suggested finishing their meal in the kitchen because Edward clearly wanted to see As Much Of The Manor As Possible. Two, when Alfred offers to stop embarrassing Bruce and leave them alone for the end of their date, Edward would have insisted he stay and break out the baby albums. You cannot convince me that Alfred is not a scrapbooker. Actually, does what Edward’s doing count as scrapbooking? Maybe they could compare notes.
#riddlebat#batman forever#edward nygma#riddler#bruce wayne#batman#ship meme#i do not actually recommend reading the novelization because it did chase so dirty i still seethe about it sometimes#but it did make edward pretty fucking gay#now the batman & robin novelization i recommend wholeheartedly#because for some reason bruce has a huge crush on mr. freeze#like literally bruce stalked him for a while in his 20's#and his internal narration is constantly monologueing about how handsome victor is#truly george clooney batman is canon gay

--------------------
Kuroo Tetsurou liked to write on his arms. Despite his mother's half-serious warnings about “ink poisoning” or staining his skin, he insisted on marking his arms and legs wherever he could. Not like his best-friend-since-always Bokuto Koutaro, who had to write on his arms or he’d forget to breathe, but artfully. He’d draw designs, animals, the occasional chemical compound. The whole idea behind soulmates fascinated him: how one person could mark their arm and someone potentially thousands of miles away, would have that same mark appear. The amount of articles, studies, and books he’d read about the topic, even at a young age, could put an undergrad researcher to shame.
my notes: again with the soulmate au bc i cannot help myself. but really cute!!! probably gonna read this again later!

Kenma gets a text from an unknown number. He'd be lying if he said the guy behind it wasn't kind of endearing.
my notes: again, i love wrong number texts. it focuses more on kenma’s friendship, but kenma’s pov with texting kuroo is more than him realizing feelings and stuff. really cute, ive read it multiple times.

author summary: He should have known that there was a Specific Reason™ why it was so absolutely vital that he and Matsukawa specifically meet for a reading of the script. He should have known that there had to be some evil catch beyond sitting in a tiny, cramped studio with his newly sworn enemy.
Hanamaki stares at the title of the script he’d so gracefully neglected the night before.
FORBIDDEN PARADISE
“Excuse me,” Hanamaki starts, raising a pen in the air while staring blankly at the packet in his free hand. “Just to clarify, you want me to record a boy's love CD with Matsukawa?”
my notes: a very good voice actor au. there is some misunderstanding on hanamaki’s part bc he didnt finish listening to matsukawa, and this is really cute and i love matsuhana.

author summary: Hanamaki texts the wrong number when trying to extort tips out of Oikawa in order to defeat Iwaizumi in arm wrestling, and then continues to text the witty stranger who had answered.
my notes: minor iwaoi, daisuga, bokuaka // god i think this is my favourite matsuhana fic overall, maybe in general, but my god is it great. this is probably a common rec, but its understandable as to why it is. basically au where makki texts matsun (who goes to karasuno) instead of oikawa for tips to beat iwaizumi at an arm wrestling match. but they keep messaging. and holy shit i love their conversations. please read this, it is 256/10
there we go!! i might go a part two with more ships (kagehina, tsukkiyama and iwaoi) but this took up way to much time lol. i have an essay due in a couple hours. but hope u like these fics as much as i do!!

Do you think that a court of silver flames was well written? When I read it, I hated every character that I use to loved. Most people are happy that Tamlin is suffering for his mistakes but did Feyre not do the same to Nesta? I also love the friends that Nesta made but I feel like Nesta isn’t the type to have sleepovers with hot chocolate. I saw her more as Loki character (cunning and mischievous). Also the fact that Feyre is literally still a child and is a mother is weird. I just hate that book. To make things worse, NESTA AND CASSIAN DIDN’T REALLY TALK ABOUT THIER ISSUES (like the fact that Cassian is more loyal to his friends than his own mate and the trauma that Nesta went through). I just felt like the book is very poorly written and everyone acts like Feyre is perfect makes me want to throw up. Am I a horrible person for wanting Feyre and Rhysand to die?
TW: for mentions of rape/severe depression/ childhood abandonment.
You see I have a love/hate relationship with ACOSF because I see a lot of good in the story and in Nessian’s relationship in general, I do wish we spent more time on Nessian than on the Feysand baby plotline. I think most of the reason this book went the way it did was because at first it had a separate plot line. If you go back to ACOFAS, it’s as clear as day, she may have had to scrap the idea due to the various problems within the text. If she had went with the simpler plot of Nesta’s healing journey and Nessian’s romance this book would’ve been better, because despite having a 800 page book about a Nessian, I still feel like I know nothing about them, like I loved getting glimpses into both their past and Feysand and their pregnancy plot take away from who the book is supposed to be about which is Nessian. However I went into this book with the mind set that SJM can’t let go of Feysand (even though Nessian is her second biggest ship in her fandom and a better ship in my opinion) that and all her various lives had the same five questions so I kinda figured this would be the case. I think since I prepared myself I ended up enjoying the book because I went into it with low expectations, but that still doesn’t mean I can’t admit that it could’ve been an extraordinary book If SJM focused on the couple it should have been focused on, As for Feysand, I’m an anti Feysand shipper because I can’t stand Rhysand. He is the worst type of person. Feyre I’ve always been on the fence about her. I don’t hate her with a burning passion of a thousand suns, but I don’t love her either. As far as the IC the only two I hate right now (besides Rhysand) are Mor and Amren. And I can agree, I think people acting like Feyre is the perfect being enables Feyre a lot, it squanders the potential Feyre could have as a character by treating her as if she’s still a child and keeping things from her about her own court, like she can’t be happy 24/7 and people need to realize that, tough childhood or not, the real world doesn’t give you these type of free passes, as for Cassian, I’m at an impass. I love Nessian with my whole heart and soul, but even I can admit when he can be a dick, it’s why out of the bat boys, he’s my favorite. The thing about his devotion is that it’s all about psychology and the effects of childhood abandonment, Cassian’s main fear is being abandoned by those he loves. To feel unwanted and unloved. (If you look back to the way he talks about wanting kids and how he would make sure that they never felt unwanted or unloved it hits harder) and giving Cassian’s history him clinging onto whatever family he thinks he has makes a lot of sense. Even if that family doesn’t deserve his devotion at times (I’m looking at you Rhysand) but let me go further, In Cassian’s history, he was a biproduct of rape, we have no clue what psychological repercussions that has on Cassian, but from the way that it appears to affect him I can say that it’s a pretty heavy factor to why Cassian feels unloved and unwanted, He was also ripped away from his mother at a young age and thrown into a place that made him feel even more unwanted, his mother was also murdered before he could do anything about it, and it’s clear as day that he blames himself for his mother’s death like Nesta blames herself for her father’s. That being said Rhys is a sensitive subject for Cassian because despite Rhys being a raging asshole, Rhys was also the first person that Cassian made a connection with. Rhys’s mother was also the person that made sure that Cassian felt loved and wanted. So I can imagine after 500 years it’s hard for Cassian to let that go and Nesta understands that no matter how much she may hate Rhys. It doesn’t mean she necessarily has to like Rhys. There’s a lot of great reasons why she doesn’t, but she’s not going to get in the middle of that relationship because she knows how important Rhys is to Cassian. But she’s also Cassian’s mate and best believe that she’d rip Rhys a new asshole if he hurt Cassian in anyway, (I’ll probably make this an analysis later)
