#i have seriously underestimated this post wow

◌ ｡ PAC: “All eyes on me” - how you can fight your insecurities and start to stand out?
hello, everyone!
honestly this reading turned out to be pretty different from what the heading suggests🫡 but i hope it will still find those who it destined to find. So, as always, remember that this is a general reading, so it may it may not resonate with you. good luck~
pile 1 pile 2 pile 3
°｡ Pile 1. ◌
hey hey, group one!! first of all, why do you underestimate yourself so much? seriously, this group came through as the ones with poor self-esteem, so if it’s not about you it’s not your group. I see people here focusing on their flaws and weaknesses too much. It comes to the point when you see nothing good in yourself, you refuse to recognize just how many good and outstanding qualities you possess. Every one of your strengths turns to weakness in your eyes. But seriously, you are so freaking cool, guys. Cards show you as someone extremely talented, interested and unique. Your personality is fascinating. There are not many people like you in this world. You are remarkably smart and intelligent, be it in a spiritual or scientific way, or maybe you know everything about, for example, cinematography or astrology. But, i believe, there’s not just one field in which you are educated. You know a lot. And i think you are pretty much aware of yourself too. And that’s interesting, because you still have self-esteem problems. Maybe that’s because you didn’t even have a chance to really esteem yourself, to see your worth, to show yourself to others, maybe, and receive some feedback, which, i am sure, would have been positive. You possess qualities that allow you to attract not only friends, but fans. Many of you have a talent, an outstanding one. Especially for performing in public, maybe singing, dancing, comedy, modeling or whatever. Many of you are destined for fame here. Wow, guys.
But what to do with that low self esteem of yours? First, acknowledge all your strengths and abilities. Make a list of them, and a list of your accomplishments too. Read them everyday. Teach yourself to stop seeing only bad side. You probably don’t tell anyone about this problem, but it will be really helpful for you to share it with your close friend (family member, lover, etc.). You would receive needed support from them. You don’t even realise how much their praise, compliments and encouragement will boost your confidence. And you will receive it for sure.
If what I said about a talent does resonate with you, well, it’s just a crime to hide it from the world. “Firework” by Katy Perry just started to play, so yeah, you know what to do. Don’t be afraid to express yourself. Wear that outfit you are afraid to wear, go out with that make up that it “too bold”, sing out loud, dance, post whatever it is that you want and so on. Remember, you are a star!!
°｡ Pile 2. ◌
hellooo, group 2!! who do we have here? we have critics. I see that people here are very critical of themselves. You set high standards for yourself, you must be the best in everything. You have to be all that: beautiful, smart, educated, skilful, proper etc. You want to succeed everywhere and in everything. It is important for you to show that you are no worse than others. You may have a fear of being left behind. And this makes you “cling” to everything at once, which ultimately leads to the fact that you are not truly successful at anything. “If you run after two hares, you will catch neither”, you know. And that makes you feel insecure, doubt your abilities and skills. You always feel like you are not enough. For example, you want to send resume for a job, but then you think “oh, i am not good enough for this position, they will definitely find someone better”. And you give up without even trying. Yes, you also give up too easily. Impostor syndrome may be the thing for you.
In fact the problem here is that because of that you don’t put enough energy and efforts into things that are interesting for you, that you want to do. It’s so hard for me to focus on your reading now, something distracts me all the time. You may feel the same. You can’t be perfect at everything, you should focus on what you really like.
I see that you are fast learners. You easily perceive new information and grasp the essence of things. You are probably always aware of what is happening in the world, you know all the latest news, follow trends, and all the gossip about your surroundings is unlikely to go unnoticed by you. And I think that you would be good at spreading information. Something about the way you speak captivates people. You can become a good speaker, blogger or work in marketing sphere.
Don’t let your doubts stop you from working towards your goals. My advice to you is to stop thinking and start acting. if you are unsure of your abilities and skills, take courses to improve your qualifications so that you can feel more confident. And stop being afraid to try and experiment. You are afraid to send this resume because “of course, they won’t accept you”but just try it. Or you don’t start drawing, let’s say, because you’re sure that you’ll get some kind of nonsense, just do it, draw it, and then again and again so you’ll improve and understand that it’s not all that bad. Here you need to stop expecting something supernatural from yourself, it’s okay if you are not perfect, accept yourself as you are and do what you can to become better. It is better to try and fail than to frame yourself into this “perfection” and do nothing. Good luck!!
°｡ Pile 3. ◌
Hi, group 3! An interesting case here. People here either have a decent, healthy self esteem (and if that is the case i don’t have much to say to you) or pretend it to be so. I see you here as extremely flamboyant personalities. You know how to draw attention, how to make people love you and how to get whatever it is that you want. You are charismatic, fun and charming. You learnt to be this way. At first i didn’t see a problem here. So maybe you don’t realise it either. You show the world a person that is not you, and you get so used to it. You display signs of a person with high self-esteem, but deep inside there’s a lot of pain, insecurities and fears. I see your inner child is extremely hurt here. Your connection with them is messed up. You lost yourself while pretending to be someone else to deserve love of people. Maybe you, the way you are, didn’t fit into society and weren’t accepted and that made you change. Many of you here are truly differ from your surroundings. Damn, we can have geniuses in this group. Your ideas, ways of thinking and seeing this world are something that people may not understand. You have very rich imagination and a creative vision. You are one of those who are able to come up with truly original ideas. Many of you also possess psychic abilities and are great master manifestors. And you all are so strong, because whereas I see your inner self suffering so much you are still able to show the world an absolutely happy and content person.
I see your inner child here as literally “bottled up” with its problems, fears and wounds. And he has to face it all alone. You are too scared to “open this bottle” because you would have to feel it all too. Or maybe you are not even aware of it. But it’s still there, inside of you. And if you stumbled across this reading it’s not just by accident.
So, what cards advice you here. You need to reconnect with your inner child, to recall who you was and who you really are. Understand and become aware of all your inner pain, triggers and everything that may bother you. Stop pretending. Give yourself time to acknowledge it all, accept yourself and relive all that pain. Let your feelings and emotions out. I’m not a doctor, indeed, but some of you would really benefit from working with a therapist if a lot of what i said resonates with you. To be and not to seem to be, that’s what you have to learn.

hi guys. i don't like to make posts like this but i figure i'd just want to clear some things up
first things first, i do not support OMOCAT and please get off my page if you do.
i know a lot of people are going to tell me that it was a long time ago. and i know. i know that people change and i do have faith that OMOCAT doesn't do the stuff she did anymore, but that isn't my problem
if you aren't aware of the extent of what she's said, it wasn't just the shota shirt. here are some ss of deleted tweets from 2012-2014.
if you're wondering, she has made an apology about the shirt she made about a year after she released it, stating that the definition had changed since then and she felt it was no longer appropriate
basically her whole thing was that it didn't mean that to her, and that it just meant little boy
and, to be quite honest, in this situation i don't care what 'shota' means, because either way it doesn't make her look any better. making a shirt with a picture of an anime boy with the words 'little boy' on it isn't much of an improvement.
and what's worse is her tweets. again, 'little boy underwear' doesn't sound any better than 'shota underwear'. in her tweet as of nov 2013, BEFORE the shirt was removed, she made the tweet that said,
'what does shota mean' 'uh'
i feel this pretty much implies that she knows in a lot of circumstances it has some sort of sexual connotation to it. and the tweet about people flipping their shit when they see her shota underwear???
a grown woman tweeting about 'how she doesn't like *all* little boys but thinking about her 3rd grade crush makes her flustered* is just straight out pedophilia, u cannot deny that this is weird af
i dislike cancel culture. i don't think people should have their lives ruined for making mistakes, but this was not a mistake. saying 'omori is hot wow good shota' about a 12 year old character she created isn't really something u can just bounce back from imo
the thing about the underwear and her apology only being about the shirt is the most gross to me. i think it's apparent that even if she didn't think shota is an erotic word, she obviously knew that other people felt it was and these were her responses.
i'm just posting all of this because i think people seriously underestimate the situation,, and i also don't want anyone thinking i support her in any way. i love OMORI with all of my heart and it rlly sucks to see the creator of it say this kind of shit
again, i know it was a long time ago but the thing is she never apologized for the tweets (as far as i'm aware) and only for the shirt, which ngl was kind of half-assed considering she only said 'i didn't know what it meant' (either way, in what world is selling a shirt that says 'little boy' on it reasonable?)
i don't want to reach, but i think her treatment of HERO in the game is also questionable. the adult women in the game fawn over him and SWEETHEART literally preys on him??? and the way the slime girls treat the boys is questionable imo. i wouldn't say this about a normal game but considering OMOCATs history this is strange to me.
anyways ill wrap this up by saying please do not interact if you support omocat!!

If you're still doing the character ask game, I need to hear Tetsuya, all numbers please 👀🩵
Oh, wow. You most certainly shall have it. (Prepare to be here for a while.)
1. My first impression of them
Probably something like "cool, my favourite colour". I definitely had zero deep thoughts about him (or anyone) in the beginning, since I process feelings pretty slowly.
2. When I think I truly started to like them
Probably towards the end of season 2. (But hey, still on first watch.) Not because there was any particular moment that caused it, must have just had enough processing time around then, and enough information for points of connection.
3. A song that reminds me of them
Ahem. I'll attempt to narrow it down.
You're lucky the post limit is ten.
4. How many people I ship them with
One, really. Just Kagami. But that doesn't mean nothing besides that happens in my fics. Relationships are messy, so it's not like I'm preventing Kuroko from having any attraction towards other people, or anyone else to him.
5. My favourite ship of them
KagaKuro it is. I live for relationships that are based on trust, commitment and insane merging with another in an activity that both love. I don't need ships that feel surprising or outside the box, I need ships that feel real. I also don't need angst and toxicity. Of course there will always be problems in any relationship, but I want the general tone to be that of growth and positivity. A particular aspect that really made me fall in love with their love was the growth from dependent on each other to working on themselves as individuals to be stronger together, which leads to not needing to be together but still deciding to do so because they want to, which is beautiful. That's an aspect I love to explore further in my writing.
6. My least favourite ship of them.
I feel like I've answered this before, but it's Momoi. It literally makes my skin crawl to see stuff about them, (especially stuff that treats them as a natural progression of the story as if that's totally reasonable) and that's a strangely strong reaction from me, but it has to do with how Momoi's "crush" is depicted. I think there's something that really underestimates both characters in it, turning them into a joke that isn't funny at all. It's old news that women violating physical boundaries is seen as harmless and funny or even cute (truly despicable) but it really needs to stop. I also hate that Momoi's feelings are depicted in an incredibly shallow way that dumbs her down. I'm supposed to believe that a character as smart and confident as her will fall head over heels for someone she thought nothing of before, for the first random act of kindness? Yes, there absolutely are people who are so deprived of love and attention that they will do that, and it's not their fault, but I think it's dishonest to depict Momoi as someone who will confuse love and/or attraction with gratitude that hard. Sure, it doesn't take a genius to see that she sometimes feels left out because she's a girl, but that is incongruent as a reason for this too, because she's obviously looking for deeper friendship when she looks at everyone else longingly, so to think that she instantly fell in love as an answer to that doesn't make any sense. The only answer to this behaviour is self-deception, in a complexity that does justice to her character.
This is getting long, and I didn't even touch on Kuroko's side of things but really, you can read all about it in my fic, if you're interested.
7. A quote from them that you remember
I think I've answered this rather seriously before, so let's pick a funnier one. (at least a little.) I don't remember the exact wording, but it's the quote about there always being a slight chance that a meteorite will strike at the last seconds of the game. It's funny to me because I've said literally the same thing prior to seeing KnB, and I think it demonstrates in such a funny way both the strength and weakness of a brain that tends to ignore physical reality in favour of fantasy. The strength is obviously that you can find what you need for your desired outcome in almost anything, you can always imagine a way your fantasy will become reality, and so never lose hope, but the weakness is pretty obviously that not being so grounded in physical reality makes you rather clumsy and inconsistent with concrete physical tasks. Possibly it's not so funny to someone else, but it's funny to me as someone who has always been 1000% willpower, meanwhile struggling to develop physical abilities to even passably match that willpower. BUT when you do get there, magic happens. I would say it's desirable to have your head in the clouds and feet on the ground.
8. Your favourite outfit of them
I do like striped t-shirts.
9. Your least favourite outfit of them
Orange t-shirt. Wtf are you doing Kuroko, you have blue hair! Do you want to look dead?
10. Describe the character in one sentence
An impossibly relatable myriad of contradictions.
11. What's the first thing you think about when thinking about the character
Probably either the fandom here on Tumblr, or my own fics. Because those are the things that are in my daily life.
12. Sexuality hc!
Asexual and gray-romantic. That's how I just always read Kuroko in the anime and manga. I know a lot of people tend to automatically headcanon characters who display no opposite sex attraction as being gay, which is valid, but I am asexual myself so of course I'm more likely to start to wonder if someone is ace when they display neither opposite nor same sex attraction in a way that is clearly sexual. I see no evidence of it in canon, even Kagami seems to have some inclination towards being interested in sexual things compared to Kuroko. So Kuroko might just as well be ace. Which is HILARIOUS because it's called the invisible orientation sometimes. That's why I'll never let go of this headcanon. Literally who would be better asexual representation? Asexuality can even be one factor why Kuroko has so little presence. Apparently, people exchange sexual energy all the time, and if you don't emit, receive or respond to it, people may not even notice you. (It's a hypothesis but based on my experience there might be something to it.) Obviously that would be just one reason in something that is more complex, but that's just what makes it interesting to me, when multiple factors come together. Anyway, I do see latent romantic attraction there, but I don't think it's ever strong enough for Kuroko to act upon until Kagami of course. I don't think he's necessarily even aware of it. I do think that attraction is leaning towards men, though. However, he's very very particular. Only Kagami is able to break the threshold, haha. Also, thinking Kuroko is asexual doesn't necessarily mean I think he's sex-averse (since someone people still don't understand the difference.)
13. Your favourite friendship they have
I just talked about the negative aspects of their relationship, so it might not be obvious, unless you've seen a post where I talk about this, but it's with Momoi, and it's precisely because I think their friendship and actual points of connection were largely ignored in canon. They both feel slightly like outsiders, they both have made observing people in different ways their forte, which I think means they both have a natural interest for it, they are the most naturally socially inclined in their Teiko team (besides Akashi, but he's in a different way from them). They even have this pastel colour coding thing going on. And I think it's super tone-deaf to not have any explicit comparison between Kuroko's and Momoi's experiences of being ignored because she is definitely ignored too, yes in a different way, but the more important difference is that people don't even notice she is, and the fandom does it too. (Newsflash, the reason is misogyny.) There should definitely be similar comparison between Kuroko and Momoi as there is between Kuroko and Takao. As if being a "supporting character" is profound when a guy does it, but when a girl does it, it's just what she was supposed to do all along anyway, so no one even pays attention. Another point I can't help but see is, that if Kuroko was a girl, Momoi would definitely be that extrovert friend who adopts the introvert friend, and they would be besties like none you'd ever seen. Momoi would still bury Kuroko in hugs, but in a way more genuine way in which that over-enthusiasm wouldn't be out of place or shallow. But all of that deep friendship potential is ignored. In short, there is a shit ton to explore in their relationship, and I'm doing just that.
14. Best storyline they had
I don't know if I can answer anything else than the whole thing? I just love the whole premise and how it plays out. I love that the story is committed to the perspective of someone with significant limitations in power: Kuroko doesn't magically "win the lottery" and actually become the most powerful being, like protagonists usually do, in series like Naruto and Boku no Hero Academia. Kuroko's story is a lot like "the heroine's journey" and actually commits to the unattractive parts of it, meanwhile so many other stories just use the sexy parts of the heroine's journey to spice up the hero's journey and create emotion porn. That's why Kuroko is actually relatable to people who know that the ultimate power fantasy is out of their reach: he finds an alternative way to be strong, he actually has to be smart to overcome his limitations in power. I know some people love escaping to power fantasies, but I really appreciate these grounded aspects in this otherwise fantastical story. Even though the way to Seirin's win is paved with unexplained power of friendship moves that make no practical sense, the result doesn't feel like lazy storytelling because of this commitment.
15. Worst storyline they had
Hmm, there's no bad storyline in my opinion, so I'm just going to have to continue with how much more there would still be to get out of the overarching story with some added female perspective. So many of Kuroko's struggles are totally average struggles of women. Having less raw strength than the average person you'll be facing? Being ignored on a daily basis? Going out of your way to be the emotional glue because no one else will do it? Not being taken seriously? Your boundaries being constantly violated? Obviously, I'm not saying this doesn't happen to men. I'm saying this happens particularly to men who are thought of as feminine. So I think it's really sad that stories like this ignore how many struggles people who are perceived to be feminine, share. It's sad that misogyny prevents stories like these from getting out of the male centric narrative and keep isolating the male and female characters from each other even though they share so many experiences. So, the worst storyline is the lack of acknowledgement that it should have also always been a female storyline in addition to everything great it already does.
16. A childhood headcanon
Kuroko loved to pretend play that ghosts and spirits like poltergeist exist, and they are misunderstood and someone just needs to find the right words to talk to them, so he went looking for them in dark and mysterious places like a forest or an attic if he was near one.
17. What do you think their first word was?
"Granny" because she was always home more than Kuroko's parents.
18. How do you think they were as a kid?
I think Kuroko was significantly more shy, quiet and socially awkward, but also more animated and emotive. He had to grow a thicker skin and hide major parts of himself to survive in a harsh social world.
19. The most random ship you've seen people have with them?
Who haven't I seen? Kuroko no harem indeed. Probably like... Imayoshi or Kasamatsu? Which is like... why? Where is the chemistry? The foundation? The thematic significance? At least I understand why some people think it's hot to ship Kuroko with Hanamiya or the Jabberwock, like, I theoretically understand that some people find antagonists who demean someone and beat them up to be smashing boyfriend material, or if not that, at least some basic porn, but I don't think I will ever understand the people who seem like they are looking for ships with pretty much nothing in it. I guess they want to create everything themselves, maybe?
20. A weird headcanon
Kuroko wrote some angsty poetry in middle school and ended up burying it underground because he was embarrassed by it. I have no clue where this came from? I don't know if it's that weird, but it's the most baseless thing I've ever written in my fic. (I make sure my wilder shit is canon based even if it's an unlikely interpretation.)
21. When do you think they were at their happiest?
Besides Seirin's win and reuniting with the GOM, I think in early childhood when it was mostly just Kuroko and Granny who was really loving and showed him the magical world of stories, painting him a picture that he could do anything and be anything he wanted, and he didn't really know the real world wasn't as kind, yet.
22. When do you think they were at their lowest?
Besides end of middle school, at the spring of third year in high school. (Oops, spoilers for TOT!)
23. Future headcanon
Oh dear. Oh dear indeed. Do I have plans. Some that I feel like I'll be hanged for.
Oh well, let's just say that Kuroko and Kagami will definitely get married, since that's both obvious and safe.
24. What do you think is a secret they have that they never told anyone?
Argh, it's so hard for me to answer these because all secrets I think Kuroko has are, again, spoilers for my fic. A lot of them are still secrets to Kuroko as well, for quite some time.
Well, I don't think he told anyone he's asexual, out of self-preservation. (Untill he does.)
25. When do you think they acted the most ooc
Hmm, I don't have anything big, but it always felt a little strange to me that Kuroko decided to comfort Momoi by touching her head, as opposed to a shoulder or something, because Kuroko evidently doesn't like people touching his head. It seemed strange that he wouldn't consider it might be annoying to someone else too. Of course, I can come up with multiple explanations for this. There's no reason why he wouldn't know that it's in fact something that Momoi likes. Or he could have been trying to come up with the most platonic way to comfort someone he could think of, and it turned out strange. I'm sure there could be other explanations, too.
26. When do you think they were being "themselves" the most?
I think increasingly towards the end of the series, because he would gradually open up and relax more around people.
27. If they could meet a character from another show/movie/etc, who would be the most fun for them to meet?
I kind of dislike crossovers like this but... well, if I must choose, I guess it would be quite interesting if Kuroko could meet one of my own characters. Maybe the other protagonist from my debut novel, who is a literally invisible creature who would totally make Kuroko think that he was right in the childhood headcanon mentioned above.
28. The most unnecessary thing they ever did?
Hmm, I think Kuroko went a bit far about teasing Kagami with Nigou sometimes. I know it's hard to get if you don't have an irrational phobia, but it's not really a funny experience. It could be retraumatizing.
29. How do you think they would be as a parent?
The major spoiler questions just keep coming, geez. Obviously Kuroko will be a gentle and loving parent. It's just that I want to blurt all my fic plans out now. But I can't. All I can promise is that it's going to get... interesting. I have a habit of synthesizing canon and fanon in ways that make seemingly contradictory aspects blend together. Let's just say that I'll make liberal use of some loved and hated fan fic traditions in the topic of parenthood. I promise it's going to be a bit out there. Actually about as out there as basketball is in canon. Theoretically real. Which is kind of my point. (Presicely my point.)
30. The funniest scene they had?
Honestly, it's when Kuroko is looking at Kagami, mouth open and seeing him shining literal light, pfft. There's no way to watch that shit with a straight face, and no pun intended.
Thank you for asking me, I hope you had fun reading this, you deserve so much fun after working for entrance exams! I'm so happy about your success. ❤️ If you liked this answer, I'll always be down to do it for another character or just talk about things privately too. ✨

I am back, and I am better.
Wow, what a ride 2023 was. We achieved our goals and came out smarter and stronger.
The last post I created was 02/21/2023, when I started my 40-day social media detox. I took it a bit too serious, because I restrained myself from using social media way longer than those 6 weeks - simply because it was one of the most refreshing experiences I have made so far - but also because my year early on was quite turbulent and I needed the time to fully focus on myself. That being said, I would like to take the opportunity and reflect on my highs and lows of 2023 as well as set my New Year's goals straight for 2024. This is going to be a personal post - view my New Years Goals as something that might inspire you to pursue certain areas in your life as well. <3
My lows.
My grandfather died. I loved him dearly, and he was my last grand parent to be alive.
My boyfriend and I had a one month "no talk" break that was initiated by him; he came back and we are on good terms again. However, I've been since then seriously questioning our relationship, and things haven't been the same, at least for me.
I've met some great people this year, but also some that turned out to be false friends.
Despite my social media detox, I have found myself quite a lot on YouTube again lately. It is distracting me from important tasks and my goals and always leaves me unmotivated and mentally drained.
Since moving abroad for my Master's, I feel like I am losing connections to my old friends. This, combined with the fact that I have moved around a lot in the past three years, makes me miss deep relationships and deep conversations.
My highs.
I achieved my goal and enrolled in my dream Master's, a highly selective program with connections to very prestigious companies.
I secured a VC internship, just as I had planned.
I achieved excellent grades at uni and outperformed myself - in all subjects (except for one unfortunately, which was, however, a disaster for everyone).
I had the privilege to travel Europe and stay in the finest hotels.
My relationship with my body and mind have never been better. Ironically, it was specifically during the one month break with my boyfriend that I have taken self-care very seriously and my self-confidence has reached an all-time high during this time.
My social media detox. For most of 2023, I haven't been on Instagram anymore, allowing me to fully focus on my life and goals. And it paid off. The mental clarity I've gained is insane.
My goals for 2024.
Finance.
To keep track of my finances, set a budget, avoid making unnecessary purchases and increase my income.
To take my investments more seriously and start investing my money - otherwise it will just lose value. I have done it in the past, but I have not pursued it as thoroughly as I want it to be pursued.
To be more smart with my money. One of my worst financial habits was to defer certain purchases to the last minute (e.g. booking flights), in the end spending more money than actually necessary.
Rich people don't get rich by wasting money. You get rich by keeping it and investing it wisely - into yourself and your future.
Beauty
To take care of my outer appearance every day and invest in good skin scare that will benefit me in the future as well.
To take care of my nails - I've never been to a nail salon before as I keep my nails rather short, without polish. My goal is to keep nice looking, natural nails throughout the year, done by a nailtech.
To elevate my style and get rid of old clothes that no longer serve me. Donate or sell them.
Never underestimate the power of good looks - for every aspect in your life. Love, worklife, personal life. Like it or not - pretty privilege exists.
(Mental) Health
To keep my self-compassion and self-confidence high and put myself first, as I should; but to never become vain and self-absorbed.
To care for my body and regularly work out. My goal is to become phsyically stonger and increase flexibility; a lean body is great, but the goal is to continue becoming the fittest and healthiest version of myself. Everything else follows.
To reduce my phone usage, specifically social media, to 2h / day maximum.
Your body is your temple, your mind the director of your life. Make sure to care for it - your future self will thank you.
Academics & Career
To keep full focus on my studies, attend lectures, pre- and post prepare lectures and stay on top of my assignments. My goal is to keep my GPA high and always strive to outperform myself.
To secure a summer internship that will help boost my career.
To be more bold and network with people more - in the end, everything is about good connections.
Never underestimate your abilities. You are smart and strong - you wouldn't be where you are right now, had you not worked hard in the past. Your place in the world is deserved. You are an independent woman - ain't no man telling us what to do.
Personal Growth
To declutter. To get rid of old things that no longer serve me and create fresh space for good things to enter.
To become more confident on social media and post more frequently. It doesn't matter what others think of us - why would we care? Besides, I live an exciting life - sharing my moments might inspire other to aim high as well.
To start my own small business. To just start. I have so many ideas, yet have never started one of them. Progress over perfection. Fail fast, learn and move on. 2024 is the year we finally start our business.
To connect more. Yes, I am incredibly busy but nobody should wait for my response for TWO MONTHS. Reply faster, dare to reach out more. Leverage your connections.
To allow myself for conscious time-off. During stressful periods, I tend to focus on work and uni only. This is not productive. There needs to be time for sports, meeting friends and self-care. 2024 is the year we prioritize having free-time as well - it is incredibly important for a healthy brain and increased productivity.
2023 was amazing for my personal growth, and 2024 will be even more so. Let's do this.
I have created a very detailed Notion page with all my goals for 2024, broken down into why I want to achieve them, when I will have achieved them and what steps need to be undertaken to achieve them. What you see above is just a part of it - it is important that you make your goals SMART as well (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time-bound) in order to hold yourself accountable and have a clear vision of where you are going.
I highly recommend you do the same - visualizing and writing down your goals are such powerful and important steps to achieve your goals.
Much love to you all. May 2024 be your year!

Three Son’s Au Snippet
If you have no idea what I’m refering to it’s this post
War’s let out a very pained moan, he must have had a little too much to drink last night because his arms were sour. He attempted to move them. They didn’t budge, that wasn’t right, he attempted again, still nothing. War’s eyes became as wide as roses as he realized what was going on. He, Sky, Wild, and the boy Hyrule were all captured, and not by an amateur either, the captain's arms were chained, and bound by rope. Whoever this person was, they knew of his reputation.
“Oh you're awake.” A familiar but sour voice expressing, looking up War’s was met with the youngest prince servant, Four.
“Oh thank goodness,” War’s was relieved. “Quick, four, help us out of these chains! I’m not sure what happened but someone must of—”
“Let me stop you right there Captain, I won’t be doing any of that.” The short teen stated.
Slowly the other’s began to wake up, and were also in great confusion.
“What…”
“Four, what is the meaning of this?” Sky pressed, sounding hurt.
The servant shrugged. “Just taking care of business.”
Wild began to shake wanting to break free. “YOU WERE A TRAITOR WEREN’T YOU! That plea to Prince Twilight about not going after Prince Wind was a part of your plan! You were trying to not have him rescued, so you could get some kind of pay I bet! I knew you always wanted the young prince dead!”
Never underestimate a short person's scorn, Four in anger slapped, Twilight’s Champion across the face. Before growling, “never speak those words again to me. I have done things for Wind's sake that you could never begin to comprehend.”
“You seem full of yourself to use such informal terms for the prince. That’s a rite only reserved for his family, his brothers, the people you are betraying!” War directed the teen’s attention towards him.
Four laughed, “bold words coming from you. Mister, I’m friends with the king on a first name basis! Sure, right reserved for brothers HA!” The short teen leaned into the captain’s face. “You and I both know that I have been more of a brother to Wind, then Twilight will ever be.”
“Then why have you done this?” Sky pleaded, wanting nothing more than peace among his fellow servants.
“You all seriously haven’t figured it out by now? Wow I mourn your intelligence. Fine very well, I won’t be seeing you after today anyways so might as well I guess.”
Four took a bow, “I am simply carrying out the order’s the prince has asked. For you see it is my duty to fulfill everything he has requested.” The teen smiled at the older boy's expression, as the realization and denial slowly creeped in.
“He wouldn’t,” Wild growled, “he wouldn’t do this.”
“Of course he would, I mean do you know who his mother is?”

1/21 Update
Hey Hey!
So Creation has been developing for about 8 months. Never thought I'd be sticking with it for this long. And I must be truly honest, I've severely underestimated the scope of the project.
I never expected writing an IF to be so horribly difficult, and before I started in March 2023, I really should have put more research and practice into how to write one.
(Mini-Demos, Drawing Boards, Brainstorming, plot, and choice structure before even beginning work on the first chapter).
See, before writing an IF, I wrote novels, which are a different beast altogether. As you know, you don't have to develop different small plotlines for the reader's choices when it comes to novels, and you can quite literally just write a straight plot that's much simpler. So in turn, my creativity and writing implementation have taken a massive downturn in recent weeks, and I have seen a lull regarding those two things for the past 4 months.
This may seem like I might be taking an indefinite hiatus of some sort or something, but that's as far from the truth as you can go. With me being in college again after winter break, the chances of massive updates to the novel might be even rarer, since this place drains me to all hell. But, what I can promise, although sometimes it's hard to guarantee it, is that:
Chapter 6 will be shipped to y'all within the next month or two after I put together some ideas.
Writer's block is one hell of a drug, man.
Also holy hell, almost 17,000 views on the CoG forums on my forum posting? I'm seriously blessed to have had my IF/novel thing be seen by that many eyes, (34,000, more or less). Wow.

Kouri watches The Devil Judge, episode 16, a post which got very long because *gestures at this entire episode*
Everything is terrible and I can’t wait to see KYH make his comeback
‘don’t tell me he actually killed my parents’ all this time Elijah never really believed KYH was guilty *sobbing*
KGO why did you think talking to the police would help
KYH wearing the hell out of that prison uniform
Shut up MJH. Stop talking forever.
Just shoot him KGO. KYH could talk your way out of it.
‘I didn’t think YSH would be killed’ oh well everything’s okay then!
Cool motive, MJH, you’re still an absolute dumbass
‘I underestimated HJS’ I think you just underestimated his wife
KIG: oh I’m gonna rescue KYH, I just don’t want your help to do it
Bamboo spear guy just does not take a hint
“I’ve been ordered to check her vitals” KGO please you could do that by looking at the monitor
Gee JSA it’s almost like teaming up with a bunch of billionaire sociopaths was a bad idea
Seriously she has no right to be surprised
“I didn’t think the poor people we shipped off to the Human Rights Violation Camp would include my poor people!” get fucked JSA, nobody is sorry for you
Now she’s upset that KYH is ‘dead’? Reconsider your life choices
MJH realizing he has made a crucial error
KYH looks so fucking proud of himself lmao
How did that conversation go? KIG getting him out of prison and then being like “oh by the way your boyfriend asked me for a suicide bomb vest, should we be concerned about that?”
Him donating all the warden’s money I’m dying
MJH’s face, like, yeah, you fucked up big time, didn’t you! Nobody’s sorry for you either
THIS FUCKING DRAMA QUEEN
You dipshits didn’t block his app after putting him in prison? That feels like a major oversight. But they did foreshadow it pretty well by having the app keeping working after the power was cut in episode 13 so I’ll allow it.
KYH baby what is you doing
Wow I’ve had orgasms that weren’t as satisfying as those 6 beating the shit out of each other in an effort to make it to the door
Not the end I expected for JSA but I have to say that ‘damn it … this is bullshit’ are baller last words
KGO, try kissing him on the mouth. See if that works.
Family hugs *sobbing*
These old guys: we’re not gonna listen to a word you say!
Just go to Switzerland, KGO. It’s not your job to fix the Korean government.
And then they got married and lived happily ever after
Anyway overall this show was absolutely wild from start to finish, I almost never guessed what was going to happen next. I laughed, I cried, I cheered. Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, showstopping, spectacular. 9.9/10, 0.1 point deducted for the ‘and then they went their separate ways’ ending as if KGO wasn’t on a plane to Switzerland the next day so Elijah would stop texting him pictures of KYH’s moping face.
#can't wait to start back at the beginning#and watch this entire show again#liveblog#kouri watches#the devil judge

Just a little something for Drowcember...and the first time I’ve ever actually drawn this character even though I honestly like him as much as I do Drizzt.
Kimmuriel Oblodra
It also amuses me that despite a lack of official art or significant description most of us have decided he has a ponytail hah
But seriously what are we going to do if we get official art and he doesn’t have one? lol

Humans as deathworlder space orcs story idea: Humanity makes contact with a highly advanced alien race before we ever even come close to figuring out FTL technology. Instead of trying to kill or enslave us they decide to uplift us. In exchange for access to their advanced technologies humanity agrees to help the aliens in their exploration of other hostile worlds which they have found too dangerous to explore. And also serve as shock troops against other more aggressive aliens. The friend aliens are basically space bees. So many...very intimidating...but ultimately very delicate and peaceful.

Me trying to convince friends who like farming/crafting games to play Project Zomboid with me: It’s fine. I made it so the zombies are scarce and super easy to kill. If you find one just tell me and I’ll kill them for you. It’ll be fine.
The Zombies two houses down about to ruin everything:

Wow, I...vastly underestimated how much you guys would vibe with the whole The Walking Dead in Space thing lol ok well...now that I have a day off from work here's some of the ideas I've been thinking about while bored this week.
----------
Human Diplomat: Hey, is there a reason all the water access areas don't allow humans anymore? Don't you guys know we have high water requirements?
Alien Space Station technician: Oh! No one told you?
Human: Told us what?
Alien: Sorry, they were supposed to tell you. Our apologizes, this must look terrible.
Human: Tell. Us. What?
Alien: Our bio filters detected the disease you all carry in the stations water supply after you visited last. Our scientists ran some tests and found that it can survive almost indefinitely in water and is highly resistant to our water treatments. We had to purge and decontaminate the entire system. We created a separate system for your use that is more isolated. You can use those....I....uh...are you ok? Is this sufficient?
Human, frantically writing in a log book: Oh? Yes, fine...that's fine!
Second human: I think you guys just solved a centuries old mystery for us.
Alien, looking confused: What mystery?
Second human: How our species all became infected so quickly.
Alien: You never found out?
Human: It wiped out 99% of our population during the initial outbreak...the how and why of it kind of stopped mattering after a bit, you know?
---------
Galactic News Reporter: Tragedy today after the recent excavation of the lost human mining crew in sector 92. Against human recommendations, rescuers continued their efforts throughout the week. The human deceased, commonly referred to as Walkers, attacked and killed several rescue parties before the site had to be bombed by air support military. Diplomats from several species met once again today to discuss the risks of open contact with the Humans and whether stricter protocols need to be put in place.
Video feed cuts to a human diplomat standing in a room full of multiple different aliens: We told you what to do! You didn't listen! You never listen to us! If you had, none of this would have happened!
Alien Politician: You recommended that the tunnels be collapsed before any excavation be conducted prior to the time frame denoted by safety regulations which would have condemned any potential survivors-
Human, hitting the table in front of him with his fists: YOU'RE STILL NOT LISTENING!
--------
Transport ship pilot over PA system: Our ship is currently on approach to the Human home planet of Terra. Be aware that we will be passing through the debris field left over from the Human Colony Wars which will require us to drop out of FTL. Our ship is specially equipped for this journey so rest assured we are in no danger from the debris. It is recommended that any windows be shielded for the duration of this time, thank you.
Human passenger pulls the shade down for their window with a sigh.
The alien next to them looks curious: Why do the windows need to be covered?
Human: Some people find the...debris...disturbing. *the way they said debris sounded sarcastic*
Alien: ...humans find broken ships disturbing?
Human: You didn't do very much research before coming here did you?
Alien just looks confused.
Human reaches over and opens the window cover. They pass close by one of the wrecked ships and at first it looks like any other debris field...then something moves and they realize it's a body. A human body floating in space. It jerks and twists as they pass by. Mouth opening and closing. The alien jerks back in surprise.
Human: The vacuum of space means they don't decompose so...all those people who didn't die properly...they're just out there...like that. Thousands of soldiers. Ships just full of Walkers.
They pass by another ship. This one looks intact and newer.

My #1 post of 2022
Sometimes when I’m at work and bored I like to think of how weird/interesting the entire idea of humanity from The Walking Dead universe progressing past the apocalyptic phase and just existing like normal with this infection. Like could you imagine humans from this universe used in a sci-fi setting where they meet aliens?
Just everything about humanity already and OH YEAH if we die for any reason that doesn’t destroy our brains enough our corpses will just keep going and immediately try to eat anything else alive around it because we all carry an inactive form of prion disease that activates upon death.
Aliens: Why are your bunks inside locked cages?
Humans: Oh, one of the early space missions a guy died in his sleep because of an oxygen leak near his bunk and ate everyone before they could wake up so...ya know, tradition.
Aliens: ...o-oh
On the other hand there would likely be common war tactics of kamakazi fighters who could easily weaponize themselves by dying on enemy ships.
I see peaceful relations with aliens being very difficult to maintain honestly lol
Even if we’re not trying to do anything hostile, who wants to risk exposure to something like that?

first night of splatoon 3
minor story spoilers under cut! tried to keep it relatively spoiler free but i've only played hero mode -- haven't touched an online battle -- so, well. its hard
i've been playing for about 8.5 hours, starting when the game went live. i've been 100%'ing hero mode as i go and haven't finished yet. it's extremely robust in terms of content, without being as grindy or tedious as splat2 hero mode! i think i have about 4 hours left, maybe a little more, making the campaign about 12 - 13 hours if you're going completionist like me. wow!
(to be more accurate, i've cleared sections 1 - 3 of stages and collectibles. all of section 4's stages are cleared except for one i missed, but i haven't combed it for collectibles yet. most of it is still labelled as an "area of interest" on the map.)
original plan was to finish tonight, but i underestimated how long it would be. it's getting light outside, and i'm definitely flagging -- time for a long nap, methinks. i'll finish it when i wake up :]
thoughts so far:
- the campaign's structure is a super awesome blend of the more classic hero modes from the previous two games, and octo expansion. i think it is better than both. it takes from and improves upon the formula of splatoon's previous story campaigns in a way i love-- truly, it is more than the sum of its parts.
- the story is way, way better than the previous games. still feels a bit weird that the octarians are here, and the new new squidbeak splatoon's comments about octarians are all the more jarring now that you can play as one, but... eh. oh well. plenty of time in this game's lifespan to bitch later, i hope.
- I LOVE DEEP CUT. i was worried their involvement would be minimal, or they'd get a slap on the wrist and fuck off, or they'd just be hype men like callie and marie, but their role is SO much more interesting and fun. seriously, their goofy asses make me smile every time i see them.
- the lore is cool, and i like that there are lots of collectibles without them being too tedious to find. some are hidden underground and only lil' buddy can find them, which can be a annoying because his ai is... a little dumb. it's not too bad though, the map highlights areas with collectibles you haven't found, and displays an icon on the map when you've collected all of one type of item on a given section. neat!
- there have been some super fun and crazy twists so far, guys. i'm really looking forward to where this is headed. i have my theories, but i'll keep them to myself.
- the music is SO GOOD. naturally, there are a few tracks that have gotten a bit old over the last few hours, as i've heard everything tens of times by now, but still. once again better than both s1 and s2 in this regard.
and those are most of my thoughts! it's 7:00 am as i'm writing this, and i seriously need to take a break. i'll make another post when i finish! i hope you're all having fun with splatoon 3, and i'll see you in a few hours!

The WIP Game
(Copied from @kadajchan )
The WIP game
I found this game on one of the blogs I am following in another fandom and it's seems fun. 😎
Rules:
post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have wips. (You can make your own post or reblog this one!) I have deemed that this isn’t just for writing either. Sketch titles? Comics? Dnd campaigns? If you have an unfinished project, it counts!!
{This is just my “Magi Fanfics” doc. Yes, parenthesis and other markings below are as they’re listed. I kept the spacing&punctuation as I have it in my googledocs. I omitted the chapter titles within each work though.}

Wow, that was more than I expected! To whoever I said “2 dozen wips” to last week, I apologize for seriously underestimating the inflation of fics in my mind!
Goddess Descends and Princess of Balbadd are in separate files, but I can list the titles within those if interested. And since this list is long...I may do another one later with my non-Magi titles.
Note:
18 is the one I posted for Magi Week titled Held in Captive Bliss
33 I posted in Enja Week as Old Dogs in a New World
35 I just posted as Dream on Fire
🤣 So you can totally see my naming scheme now
EDIT:
oops, I just realized I was supposed to tag as many people as I’ve got wips >.>;;; errrr...I don’t know 50 people on tumblr...sooooooo...If you’re reading this and want to do this, feel free to! (Honestly I’m just hoping for some ask box interaction. I promise I don’t bite...often...)

a summary of nortrell/mandinha over the first two months of 2022
(a followup from this)
they go to dubai and spend a month there, with friends (oliver, connor, tom, jakob, savannah, jennie, andrea, etc.)
they celebrate new years together (i am not linking everyone's celebration tiktoks)
lando goes public with luisa, max is one of the first to like the post
they do a lot of golfing in dubai, at various courses, with various combinations of people
max, lando, tom, jakob, etc. go karting at the dubai autodrome with the ln karts. luisa spends the day shopping with sav and jennie
max does his first stream of the year. it's golf, and it's luisa's twitch 'debut'. lando's pissed because there are weirdos in chat and the game isn't going his way. the two of them bicker over clothes
lando posts an instagram story, known to the community as the breakfast for three incident (fun fact! i had literally just woken up, logged into tumblr and experienced my dash in shambles that day it was 'fun')
the incident confirms that the three of them shared a hotel suite in dubai
tom confirms on stream that lando, max and luisa were the only ones from the group to stay in dubai
max does his second stream, another golf one, but this time with lando and aiden (the kid he coached in f4). lando is pissed because the game isn't going his way. (the stream is also conveniently timed so that younger fans (derogatory) miss it because they are in school)
(ok, i didn't document most of dubai) other activites participated in over the trip included padel, minigolf, dune buggying, beach days, jetskiing, ukno, typical dubai holiday activities, and also the dubai 24 hours
they all leave dubai to return to their respective countries
a few days into living in monaco, lando's in the uk for mclaren work
they play some golf
max sets up his pc in his room, and the two of them spend time playing halo (lando from the mtc)
max confirms a stream via social media for the next day.
max also hops on lando's flight that evening to monaco, with the intent to stream from lando's pc
he streams from monaco, but it's from a laptop instead - lando decided he wanted to play halo 5 minutes before max was supposed to go live. he streams from a laptop and his setup is... bad (i am a gamer/computer... person and i hated it), when the technical issues subside, he talks ideas for lando's gaming room with ria, scrolls the qdrnt subreddit and tells lando off for not playing halo (and also occasionaly talking to luisa too)
the three of them go golfing in monaco
lando skips the autosport awards to stay in monaco drinking caprisun with max and luisa
they fly back to the uk together so lando and luisa can attend the brits
lando goes on this morning again, and he's officialy adopted by phil and holly
max streams quite a bit over the week, watching car launches, playing five nights at freddy's and geoguessr, and scrolling twitter and reddit
him and lando go for more golfing before lando leaves for monaco again
lando and luisa spend valentines physically together, max and lando spend valentines virtually together (they have a halo multiplayer date)
(lando's back in the uk the next day anyway)
qdrnt do filming for elgato featuring simulators (or at least lando, aarav, steve and ria do, max is just there)
[actual quote] max: i'm here just for emotional support everyone
max streams when him are en route for a merch photoshoot in leeds. it's him and lando squished together in the back seat of a seven seater
[actual quote] lando: are you going to fist me?
the photoshoot is them standing on a plane..?
the next day max is back on his stream grind, playing fnaf and halo, dicussing furniture for his new setup (crafting an incredibly elaborate plan to get a very specific chair which is made in partnership with logitech so theoretically would be easy access to lando, etc. etc.), and also introducing his grandma to chat
[actual quote] theo: oh pity innit, you went to see your boyfriend lando the next day anyway
lando also streams: he does one playing roblox (i know, right) and another on halo with max
they both stream again the next day, max watching planes and lando playing halo with ria
lando leaves for mclaren's test day in barcelona starting him and max's longest stint apart yet not entirely sure when exactly, but luisa leaves for a shoot in barbados
max streams twitter and tarkov. during the twitter part, he's looking at sunglasses, prompting connor/tom/jakob/lando to comment about a 'misses'
max goes to monaco to set up the gaming room with ria and aarav. he's staying in a hotel but would have otherwise stayed in the apartment
he also has... an exchange with the team l4ndo and qdrnt admins. aarav refers to him as lando's housekeeper
he goes back to the uk for a day before jetting off to barcelona to catch the final day of testing
they both fly to portugal after testing finishes
they spend time with luisa and her friends, and the three of them watch bohemian rhapsody together.
lando and max return to the uk together, max being 20 minutes late for a qdrnt squad stream with aarav and niran. lando's on his bed watching tiktoks instagram reels before disappearing downstairs to stream his hair getting cut. they both yell at each other up and down the stairs. max's mum also appears to change max's bedsheets, but max pulls the streaming card
max is also learning portugese ffrom luisa. the one word he and lando both know definitely is the one for 'kisses'
#i have seriously underestimated this post wow#yeah this is long. again#complete with some half-assed citing!#nortrell timeline#lando norris#max fewtrell#nortrell#luisa oliveira#qdrnt#silver's fast car waffle

When you’ll post it’s mutual 3rd part because i’m waiting and waiting T_T
It's Mutual Pt. 3 (fishnets)
A/N: Female anatomy for MC, I can post another version with Male anatomy if it’s requested!
cw: the smut begins. read at your own advisory
Your boots clicked on the polished stone floors of the HoL, the sound echoing in the currently abandoned halls. You wiped your palms down the sides of your black skirt, trying to remove the anxiety-induced moisture from them.
The outfit Simeon had picked originally was something you didn’t think an angel would approve of, but Simeon never failed to surprise you. After some debate, you agreed on the following: fishnets below a black skater skirt, paired with your black combat boots and a tight black top. You layered a few gold necklaces across your chest, all of varying lengths, and added a pair of gold cross earrings, hanging from your pierced ears.
With a final shake of your hands, releasing the jitters from them, you knocked on his office door. “Lucifer, it’s me. May I come in?”
He looked up from his desk quickly, despite inviting you the day prior, he didn’t think you’d show so soon
“Yes, of course” he replied, voice coming off colder than he anticipated, likely from the usual dread he’d feel when someone knocked on his door
Walking in, you closed the door behind you, making sure to do so gently. It was a huge door, and you didn’t want to raise the alarms of any of his brothers and draw them to his room. You approached his desk and watched his eyes as they traced your body. He knew you saw, but the way the skirt moved around your hips as you advanced captivated him. And how good your legs looked in the tights, not to mention your jewelry. He was in a trance.
“Hi, MC. Have a seat” he gestured towards the chair across from him, and you sat down, “So, you really came by” he prompted, making it rather obvious he wasn’t expecting you so soon
“Yeah, Simeon said it’d be a good idea, plus I missed seeing you one on one,” you said, watching the immediate blush on Lucifer’s cheeks at your confidence. “We’ve only been seeing each other in meetings for a while now, I want to check in with my favorite demon”
Swear to Diavolo you were killing him. His heart felt like it was beating out of his chest. He was your favorite? You missed him? Holy hell.
“It’s good to see you too, I agree it’s been too long since we talked like this” he smiled, taking the mug of coffee from his desk and sipping it, looking up at you from above the rim for a moment as he did so
His eye contact locked you in a trance, and you lost your train of thought. Gods he was handsome, and you again found yourself fighting the urge to take a new seat on his lap
“Nice mug” you teased, recognizing it instantly, “it’s sweet you’re actually using it”
“Well of course” he replied, a smug look crossing his face as the cup made a muted thud, landing perfectly centered on the coaster, “I wouldn’t want to disappoint you”
“Like I have that kind of power over you” you exhaled through your nose and raised your eyebrows at the implication, seeing just how far he’d take this
“You underestimate yourself, MC, and my feelings for you. I wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize our relationship”
You let out a small laugh in shock, “Wow, I’m honored. I wonder what all I can get you to do for me”
“I think you’d be surprised” and with that, he winked. Winked! He was going to be the death of you
“Someone’s feeling forward today, aren’t they?” you prodded, amazed your anxiety had melted away as you got further and further into this exchange. With each sentence, the tension in the room grew thicker, but this only motivated you to continue
“What can I say, you walk into my office looking as stunning as you do and think I could resist?”
A blush crossed your cheeks, the seriousness of the situation finally hitting you. You wondered just how much he’d fight if you tried to kiss him…
You stood, eyes scanning the visible part of his torso from above the desk, and walked around it to him. There was a foot or so between his lap and the desk, so you sat down on top of a small stack of papers. Crossing your legs, you looked him in the eyes
His eyes never left you. He almost had to cross his legs himself, the idea of you sitting so close to him, the smell of your shampoo washing over his nose as you sat across from him. Your knees were almost touching his, and he undeniably had the thought of spreading your legs apart and making you scream his name into the maroon walls
“I wonder…” you leaned over, resting your chin in your palm as you leaned closer him, elbow resting on your upper knee, “Just how long you can resist”
The look on his face was priceless. There was a huge part of him that wanted to take you right there, press his lips to yours and kiss every inch of your body. Bury his fingers inside you as he circled his tongue around your clit, working you through orgasm after orgasm. Which he would. But not yet.
“I think you’d be surprised” he smirked, sitting back in his chair, the space between you two growing slightly
“Can I test that? I think you’ll break easier than you want to admit” you wanted to make sure he was actually on the same page as you about this before you put the tricks Simeon had told you about into action
“Please, be my guest” he spread his legs a bit and rest his arms against the arms of his chair, knowing you’d be able to tell just how into it he was as soon as your hips met his
And you wouldn’t dream of not calling him out for it. You fit your legs on either side of his, thankful for the oversized chair he felt the need to buy - but didn’t press your hips together. You just sat on his lap, admiring his face up close for the first time.
His black hair laid perfectly across his forehead, loose strands from his stress habit breaking the mold. You reached up and gently ran your fingers through them, returning them to the place you knew Lucifer preferred them. His eyebrows framed his dark eyes almost perfectly, and his jawline cut a parallel line with his clavicle. He only wore crew neck sweaters on the weekend, a pattern only you seemed to notice
“You look handsome as always today, Lucifer. Your weekend style might be my favorite”
“Oh? I didn’t think anyone had noticed. Leave it to you to pick up on the small things” his hand went to your hip and he drew you a bit closer. His palm fit perfectly against the curve of your hips, and his grip tightened as your back arched into him
“Well of course I did, would you expect any less?”
“I suppose not, although it was quite recent I even put together that you felt this way about me”
You thought about teasing him further, asking who said you felt anything special for him, but knew there was a better way to tease him
You connected your hips with his, feeling his cock press against your pussy as you let out more of a sigh than you would have liked
“Oh, MC, if just the pressure of my cock against you has you moaning like that, we’re going to need to soundproof the walls” his voice was sultry, and his hands worked in tangent as one kept you pressed against him, the other moving up your back to wrap his fingers in your hair
You rolled your hips against him in gratification, just the words of what he was going to do to you driving you crazy
“Let’s hope no one’s around then” you whispered against his lips before you kissed him, the tension that had built between you finally breaking
His lips tasted of his favorite tea, and were much gentler than you’d imagined. You could feel how desperate he was to kiss you, to wrap you in his arms and never let you go, but he’d express that through his actions, not brute force. He’d make you cum harder than anyone else in your life, his cock feeling like it was made for your pussy the way he filled you up so perfectly
His tongue ran along your lower lip, and you instantly parted your lips. Your kisses deepened, and his hand moved from your hair to your chest. His thumb rubbed gently along the side of your breast, waiting for you to give him permission to continue
You nodded against his lips, breathing out heavily with lust as you did so. You broke away for just a moment, whispering “Please, Lucifer, fuck me” as you did
The instant the words left your lips he picked you up, legs wrapping around his waist like it was habit as he carried you to the couch…

Rockin Wit Mars ☄🔥⚡(Part 1)
Hey yall!
I wanted to come back and do another series about MARS through the signs. I'll do Aries-Virgo Mars in this post and Libra-Pisces in the next one.
Mars is the planet of "war," as some will describe it. Yet, Mars isnt just about fighting and getting over on your enemies(but it's a big part of it), it's also about how we expend our energy and even detail our work ethic/how we approach our projects. It may also represent our sexual instincts (I'll talk about that in another post if yall want). Mars can also detail what kind of leader we would be (Aries rules the 1st zodiac and its represented by Mars) in the times a transit Mars may aspect your natal Mars!
With furthur ado, let's get started!
ARIES MARS:
Wow Mars is in its home sign here. Meaning that an Aries Mars will definitely radiate peak Mars energy. Aries Mars are confrontational, let me just put that out there first 🤣, or more prone to be. Yet, this isnt a bad thing. Aries Mars dont like wasting time, they get to the root and nip it in the bud! Aries Mars are like "you gotta problem then let's address it." LOL. They can be good leaders! Yet, they must be aware of being too self-centered or in their ego (Aries rules self) and be willing to listen to others when they need to. As some may know, Aries are so impatient 🤣🤣🤣, and they may get frustrated easier because they approach projects with that Mars energy. So it may be better for them to pick projects that are quick for them to pick up and are easier to get through, yet that doesn't mean patience isnt a virtue for you, Aries Mars. A little patience goes a long way ❤🔥.
TAURUS MARS:
Speaking of patience, this mars sign may be a bit more patient and not as reactive. Earth signs in general are usually less reactive, so a Taurus Mars may not be as quick to confrontation as an Aries Mars. Yet, if you fuck with their possessions or shit that is dear to their hearts, you best believe you will hear from a Taurus Mars 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Taurus represents possessions and material things that make us comfortable, so dont try to do that to a Taurus Mars. Also, a Taurus Mars will not let up until you see their side (lol that Taurean stubborness) because they know for a fact out of everything you do, you mess with their stuff. Taurus Mars can be good leaders in areas they are really passionate about because that fixed energy doesn't let up which can really help them go far. I've also noticed Venusians dont waste time on things they arent passionate of (but that's another story for another post). But yeah Taurus Mars, just remember to listen to others as well, because I know that stubbornness 🤣🤣. You never know, some ideas may be better than you thought from the other side.
GEMINI MARS:
Oh wow this placement can also make for a good leader, that is, if they can focus on one particular thing at a time and not try to do 1000 things at once. A gemini mars uses their mars energy in their words. A gemini mars isnt afraid to express their ideas, especially if it means they are taking charge or using that mars energy towards their projects. I think this makes them good collaborators. They also may argue with siblings alot (Gemini represents our siblings) or not afraid to get into it with a neighbor. Since Gemini is a mutable sign, this Mars sign may be a bit all over the place when upset, but once they calm down they can definitely communicate how they feel.
CANCER MARS:
Now alot of people like to underestimate a cancer. Yet, they are represented by the crab. Hit and get pinched 🦀🦀. A cancer mars doesn't want to be confrontational unless they seriously have to. Also, cancer mars may react alot out of emotion to feel like they need to protect themselves. They are represented by the crab. That's not bad though, because cancer is cardinal, and a cardinal sign gon make sure you dont play with them 🤣. Its also a good way for them to have emotional boundaries, but Cancer Mars dont react on everyone so badly, take a minute to assess first if you dont do so already. Yet, this energy makes Cancer Mars a good leader especially within their family as Cancer rules over the home. They fight for their relatives and just people they care about in general. And dont let a parent be a cancer mars because you will hear from them if someone is bullying their child at school (you been warned). Speaking of, a cancer mars may also be very defensive/protective when it comes to women (cancer = feminity= women), so they can be good leaders when it comes to being a feminist or fighting for women's rights. On the flip side, unfortunately, a cancer mars may run into alot of issues/arguments with women. It just depends on the individuals natal chart and how the mars is placed.
LEO MARS:
A Leo is ruled by the Lion 🦁. Yall think a lion is scared easily lol? They are known to be the king of the jungle. With that said, a Leo Mars is a very confident leader. They also may not be afraid to get into it with men (Sun rules over men/father) or their dad. Like Cancer Mars, dont fuck with a Leo Mars kids as Leo represents 5th house themes like children. A Leo Mars may be aggressively confident with their projects and they demand to be seen/listened to if they are collaborating with a group. Which is not bad Leo Mars, but remember let someone else be the star for once 🤣. A Leo Mars also may make their enemies upset on purpose, like "look at me I'm fabulous and you not bitter betty" LMAO I SEE THEM DOING THAT. Yet, be mindful not to be too prideful or arrogant with it if you're in a leadership position Leo Mars. That pride and arrogance, esp if it's coming from a malicious place when someone hurt ya feelings, can be ya downfall.
VIRGO MARS:
Let me just say I never wanna get into it with a Virgo Mars 🤣🤣🤣🤣. A Virgo Mars is something serious. They are mercury ruled, meaning like Gemini Mars they combat with words. This also makes them a good leader as well, yet Virgo Mars good leaders were once criticized themselves before. A Virgo Mars can definitely thrive as a leader in the health or science area or in an area involving heavy research. Yet, a Virgo Mars may run into alot of issues at work or with their boss (Virgo = employee/employer relationship) if they are not careful. A Virgo Mars may approach their projects with a very methodical, razor sharp, meticulous energy. Yet, if you are collaborating with others Virgo Mars, be mindful to not use that Mars energy to painfully criticize others or be upset when someone in the group criticizes you. Definitely a leader that can handle the details, but be mindful that others have good opinions too.
That's all for part 1! I'll be back with part 2 soon!
Love yall,
-Claude

Midorima Shintarō: How Strong Is He?
So, I’m making this post in response to a couple asks I got (one by @taigaakagami and another anonymous one) asking some questions about Midorima:
Do I think Midorima is underrated in the GoM? This question includes Midorima being unable to go into the Zone/analysis on if he even needs the Zone.
What would it would be like if Midorima did enter the Zone? I’ll also talk about why Midorima hasn’t entered the Zone/if he even can enter the Zone.
Do I think Midorima is the best shooting guard in the series, despite the fact that characters like Hyuuga, Tatsuya, and Mibuchi are also strong shooting guards?
I don’t know that this post will be super long, but I’m going to try and answer these questions thoroughly. I’ll say upfront that I do think Midorima is the weakest of all the GoM members, excluding Kuroko. I’ve said this before in my posts, and the reasoning goes beyond the fact that Midorima is the only member of the GoM starters that hasn’t gone into the Zone. Let’s break down Midorima’s skills first, and then we can get into the comparisons.
TL;DR in bold
P.S. For the sake of argument, just know that when I say “GoM members” in this specific post, I never mean to include Kuroko. No offense to Kuroko, but on his own, he isn’t in the same league as the GoM starters.
Midorima’s Abilities & Weaknesses
Midorima’s basic abilities include his shooting accuracy, his defense, his intelligence, and his physical strength. He also improved his endurance over the course of the series to enhance his ability to shoot physically draining shots for longer periods of time. Of course, Kuroko no Basket is famous for naming every advanced ability a player has, so Midorima also has a few of those. His Super Three Point Shot allows him to shoot accurate three-pointers from the half-court and full-court lines, and the Sky-Direct Three Point Shot is a combination shot with Takao where Takao will pass the ball to Midorima’s hands--as he’s already in a shooting form--and Midorima makes the shot. This prevents any opponents from blocking the shot as Midorima can throw it off before the opposing team realizes what’s happened. Unless it’s Akashi, but we don’t need to get into that.
Though Midorima’s endurance isn’t a weakness for him anymore, like it was at the beginning of the series, he is still weak when it comes to the physicality of his GoM skills. Yes, he can make incredible shots that no one else can make, but it will definitely tear up his body in the process. If he’s able to make it to adulthood without seriously injuring his joints and muscles, he’ll be unstoppable, but until then, Midorima has to put limiters on his ability to remain healthy. Additionally, he can’t enter the Zone. Whether he needs to enter it or not is something we’re about to get into, but for now, it’s considered a weakness.
Is Midorima Underrated?
Asking if Midorima is underrated is kind of a subjective question, so really, this answer is up to whoever is reading this, but if I’m trying to be as objective as possible, I’m going to look at the comparisons between him and the other GoM members. How do fans of KnB react to Midorima in comparison to the other members? Do they generally think his abilities are weaker? Are his abilities weaker?
Here’s the thing: from what I know of the fandom surrounding KnB, it seems that people simply find Midorima’s abilities boring. Yes, everyone loves the Sky-Direct Three, but that’s because it’s a Midorima/Takao thing. It’s an awesome skill because it needs both of them. I think the mystique that comes with Akashi, the overwhelming awe that comes with Murasakibara, the amazement that comes with Aomine, and the surprises that come with Kise are too difficult to compete with. Midorima doesn’t have the same wow factor that they do. So, to that end, I don’t think Midorima is underrated because he is what he is. Some people really love him as a character and a player, and some people probably dislike him. But I don’t think people are underestimating his abilities. I think it’s perfectly clear to most people that his abilities are the most vanilla, if you will, despite potentially being the most useful. Plus, there’s the fact that he can’t enter the Zone. So, you’d be forgiven if you thought Midorima was the weakest based on that since the other members have all gone into the Zone.
Does Midorima Need the Zone?
Is Midorima underrated on the grounds that people think he’s weak for not being able to go into the Zone, despite him not even needing the Zone to being with? That is a possibility, yeah. I’ll talk about what a Midorima-in-the-Zone playstyle would look like in a minute, but I’ll agree with the notion that Midorima probably doesn’t need the Zone at all.
When players enter the Zone, you’re basically looking at the enhancement of all basic abilities. You’re faster, your more accurate, you’ve got more power. The downside to the Zone is that it drains the stamina of the player significantly. The requirements for entering are vast amounts of talent and passion for basketball.
The way I see it is that Midorima may actually be hindered by going into the Zone. The endurance training he completed to be able to use his abilities for an entire game would be wasted by draining his stamina in the Zone. Also, Midorima isn’t a very mobile player. He can be swift, and he does use power on defense, but his position as a shooting guard means constant movement isn’t necessary. Aomine, for example, needs to be able to drive and jump and dodge and pivot, so an increase in his physical abilities would only make those things more precise. Akashi needs to outmaneuver his opponents at the top of the key and make the correct passes to get the ball through, so being more agile benefits him. For Midorima, though, those improvements would go to waste.
What if Midorima did enter the Zone?
What would it look like for Midorima to be in the Zone? Why can’t he enter it already? Let’s answer that second question first. If Midorima meets both of the requirements for being in the Zone, why hasn’t he entered the Zone? Is it because he doesn’t have the talent? Well, no, because he’s a GoM member. And we know he loves basketball. So, what is it that keeps him away? I don’t think there’s a clear answer to this, but if I had to reach for one, it would be that Midorima doesn’t go one-on-one with people enough for him to focus in the way you need to if you’re gonna get into the Zone. I know that Midorima did go one-on-one with Kagami, but that showdown never had the same high-energy, high-movement feel that the Kagami/Aomine showdown did, or the Kagami/Kise one did.
As a shooting guard, Midorima is basically getting the ball to throw it off right away. He’s not in a position that favors one-on-one moments. I mean, of course, there’s always going to be some moments like that because shooting guards still have defenders, but it’s nothing like a power forward trying to make it past a center or a point guard trying to shake his defender so he can drive. It’s mostly just a.) the shooting guard gets the ball and b.) the defender tries to block it or knock it out of their opponent’s hands. Without the sense of rivalry being enhanced with one-on-one play, Midorima never really focuses hard enough to enter the Zone.
There is also the possibility that he can’t enter the Zone because he relies on his team more than the other GoM members. Which would also explain why Kuroko can’t go into the Zone. All of the GoM members rely on their teammates--well, Aomine is a work in progress, but he’s open to it, so we’ll leave that there--but Midorima is dependent on his team to perform at his best. Before meeting Takao, this wasn’t the case, but his skills elevated with the Sky-Direct Three, so his best now includes that. Meaning, he needs someone else to achieve it. Maybe that’s a stretch, but nonetheless. Look at it this way: Midorima is the only GoM member that hasn’t done the whole, “No offense to my team, but this moment is just about me” thing. Like, even Kise, who is super pro-teamwork, expressed his immaturity during his match with Seirin because he wanted to carry the burden of winning on his own. Midorima doesn’t do that, though, so maybe his lack of selfishness is why he can’t enter the Zone.
But what if he did?
I honestly don’t know that I can imagine a Midorima-in-the-Zone playstyle. It’s not like his accuracy can increase in the Zone if his accuracy is always 100%, right? I really think the only thing that would be different about Midorima in the Zone would be his speed. Which would, essentially, equate to him being able to throw shots off faster. I guess, potentially, he may step out of his traditional role as a shooting guard if he were in the Zone. Like, maybe he’d steal the ball back after a turnover or something. Takao definitely wouldn’t be able to keep up with him in the Zone, though, so I’m sure a game with Midorima in the Zone would end up like any other GoM-in-the-Zone game: Midorima running the whole thing by himself. I really don’t think it would look much different than the games we’ve already seen with Midorima, though. He’d just be sharper. I guess that’s why he was never written to go into the Zone because his abilities don’t really lend themselves to superhuman improvement. Probably because they’re already pretty superhuman.
Is Midorima the Best Shooting Guard in KnB?
Can I answer this with a short answer? Yes, he is. I’m not gonna front and say that the other incredible shooting guards in the series wouldn’t give Midorima a good fight. Tatsuya and Mibuchi, especially, but Hyuuga has also proven that he’s a worthy opponent for him. But it really comes down to accuracy. Midorima could be tricked by Tatsuya shots or foul off of Mibuchi’s, but they can miss. Midorima can’t. Actually, if it came down to a battle of accuracy, Hyuuga is probably the one I’d pick to go up against Midorima. And we’re talking individual abilities here, okay, not a team verses Midorima. One-on-one, Midorima’s basic abilities as a shooting guard outweigh anything else. That’s what they were designed to do when Midorima was written as a character, so I think it’s accurate to say that Midorima would win against any other shooting guard in the series 9 times out of 10. Now, that tenth time may be an interesting discussion to have, but that’s another post for another time.
Well, sorry this took so long to post. I meant to post it about a month ago, but hectic lives don’t leave room for KnB blogs. Anyway, please let me know your thoughts on this topic as I’m sure there are some of you reading that think Midorima is the strongest GoM player or that he’s so weak, any other shooting guard could beat him. I will try to make time for the pile of asks in my inbox in the future, so please bear with me and keep an eye out for what’s to come!

wc; 5.8k+
You both dabbled in the idea of having sex, having shared mutual trust and desire for each other within the early stages of your love-filled relationship.
Even so, the obvious statements were left unsaid, and the obvious desire you both have for each other’s bodies had been left alone, never to be picked up again.
Now don’t underestimate yourself, there would be some not-so-rare make-out sessions when you both got into the mood and made sure to give each other ‘the look’, but they’d always end in Shuichi stiffening up and asking if you’d like to stop.
And like an idiot, you had always said the same goddamn thing, the opposite of what you wanted to say. “Sure, y- yeah.” Always praying he wouldn’t hear the disappointment in your voice. You didn’t want him to be upset that you wanted to continue, because wouldn’t that just be selfish of you?
Your prayers always seemed to be answered anyway, though mostly carried by Shuichi’s helplessly obvious nature; he ate it all up.
But maybe you should’ve been praying for the opposite because otherwise, you wouldn’t be here right now.
Maybe it was the stress from the fact that Shuichi’s boss yelled at him today, maybe it was from the fact that he had one of his colleagues accidentally file one of the most important cases, improperly, maybe it was because you both hadn’t fucked in 6 months.
Well, whatever it was, it had Shuichi fuming.
“This? Again?” Shuichi sighed in an attempt to calm himself, his face lacking the patience it usually held.
“What do you mean ‘again’!? I’ve told you this, tons of times before!” To be fair, you had no idea why you had been so angry either, but before you could even think or hold yourself back, random arguments you truly never cared about had been brought up.
What the hell were you two even fighting about?
Despite your mind screaming at you to stop, your mouth continued to act first. “God, why don’t you ever listen to me? You know, sometimes it seriously just feels like I’m talking to a brick wall when I talk to you.” That wasn’t true.
“Is that right?” He didn’t know what came over him. “Well, if we’re talking about our talking habits, I think you sometimes talk too much; it’s hard to keep track of what you’re saying sometimes, and it just- it brings me a headache…!” That wasn’t true either; he was a detective, he listened to every single detail you spoke out from those beautiful lips. Shuichi would listen as intently as he would during an investigation as he gathered information from perps.
But you didn’t know that. You had been too busy reeling from his previous statement to remember all the nice moments you had before this. His words felt like acid on your palpitating heart. Did you talk that much?
You gulped, lip trembling without your consent. “Y- yeah?”
No, I didn’t mean any of it. Please don’t look at me like that. “... Yeah.” Shuichi averted his eyes as he lied for no good reason.
You nodded in feigned indifference, chewing the inside of your cheek as you attempted to walk past him and outside the kitchen — to which he immediately stopped you, an urgency laced within his actions. Sudden anxiety wracked his body, and images of the previous executions flashed in his mind.
You couldn’t go.
With his eyes wide in a slight panic, they narrowed back to their normal width as he took a deep breath, pulling you towards him and suddenly pushing his lips on yours. “Shu-” he blanketed any open space for noise to escape through with his lips, kissing you with desperation you’ve never witnessed firsthand.
Despite your internal concern for him, your hands slipped up his shoulders to the back of his neck, pushing him closer to you than he already was on instinct.
Okay… This was okay. It was better than fighting, that was for sure.
You were confused by the sudden display of physician affection, but you could only get a little of you to care; you missed him. It had only been 5 minutes into the fight, yet you had been pulling him close like you hadn’t seen him in a year. Luckily for both you and him, he missed you too. He didn’t like fights. Especially not meaningless ones like these.
You both didn’t know how, nor when, but before you knew it, you had been sitting atop the kitchen counter, legs wrapped tightly around Shuichi’s waist as his hands gripped yours. A familiar, heavy feeling of arousal pooled up at your stomach, remaining there like an itch you knew only Shuichi could scratch. Shuichi was comfortably close for you to somewhat feel his phone poke at your thigh, but even so, not close enough. Clothes started to feel restricting, and you both shared the same need to just tear them off, but
—
“S/o,” he muffled on your lips, trying his best to try and pull away from your captivating lips on his, though it was incredibly hard with those velvety lips of yours.
“S/o!” The bad feeling in his stomach grew, and he suddenly realized it had been because he didn’t want such a special moment for the two of you, to be spoiled by a petty fight neither of you would remember in a few days. He didn’t want your shared story to be an argument that leads to sex. Call him a hopeless romantic but, that simply didn’t sit right with him.
Shuichi pulled away abruptly, apologizing under his breath as he avoided eye contact with a slightly puzzled you. “I…” He started nervously, gently nestling his forehead atop your beating heart in an attempt to self-soothe himself.
"I don’t want us to finally, um, do... This out of- of anger and- S/o, you have to know that I love you so much and that I-” That wasn’t what he meant to say, it didn’t come out right, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t think of what he had originally planned to say. His mind was jumbled, words weren’t good enough for him anymore. Shuichi began to prick small unwanted tears at the corner of his eyes as he rambled with sincere intention.
“I don’t want to look back at this day and- Or what if you regr-”
You shook your head frantically before he could finish his sentence, gentle fingertips tapping the underside of his head as you urged him to look into your eyes. You sighed fondly as you swam in those pools of liquid gold, a small, assuring smile contorting onto your face.
“It’s okay, I know, I know you didn’t mean it.” You took another breath as you continued, a deeper inhale. “And I know what you mean but, Shuichi I… No matter what, I could never regret a single thing with you,” His hands tightened around you.
“And frankly, it doesn’t matter how we ended up… Doing this with each other.” It was kind of funny how you both couldn't say the word 'sex'. A three-letter word that may have seemed terrifying to the two of you back then, started to gradually lose its intimidation factor.
“Because as long as you love me, and I love you, that’s all that will matter.” You lightly laughed at how sappy you sounded; wondering if you’d be this romantic when reciting your vows.
You two weren't even married.
But Shuichi would be lying through his teeth if he said he hadn't visualized you in a veil; and wow, did you look amazing.
Shuichi paused, gazing up at you with intense affection, and love for you. You could feel your cheeks heat up from how intently he gazed at you, you couldn't help but slightly shrink underneath his gaze.
Without missing another beat, Shuichi suddenly broke the gaze, and wrapped his arms underneath your bottom, picking you up with a concealed struggle. He'd have thought spending most of his time typing in that office, would give him some sort of arm strength.
Well, you'd find out later, wouldn't you?
Making his way to the bedroom carefully, Shuichi gently set you down on your back, trapping you in between his arms and locking his lips back onto yours soft and slowly, unlike his last pecks.
You could feel your heart rate speed up as he started to run his hand underneath the thin material of your top, and despite the rising anxiousness itching at you, the feeling of love and anticipation easily overpowered the feeling — though not completely.
For a split second, Shuichi pulled away to pull your shirt up and over your head, and the moment his loving, eager golden eyes found their way back to you, he swore he almost suffered a cardiac arrest on the spot.
With your hands resting beside your head, lips swollen and exposed chest heaving; he thought you looked like the most stunning human being that had ever graced this earth.
And he wasted no time showing you how he felt.
Quickly stripping himself of his shirt, you watched in slight amusement as he struggled to throw the material across his room, his eagerness becoming his enemy. He felt the mattress slightly dip and inflate, though he couldn't see anything as his vision was obstructed. Shuichi — despite having a feeling you had sat up and was probably going to help — didn't want to submit into his embarrassment just yet. He could take off his shirts, and he was going to prove it-
His eyes clenched shut in frustration, suddenly shot open as he felt a cool breeze hit his warm face, as well as the sound of quiet laughter.
"C- come on, don't laugh...!" Shuichi complained half-heartedly.
You grinned. "Sorry, sorry," You raised your hands in defence, taken by surprise as
Shuichi pinned the same hands back onto the bed, playfully pecking your face all over before moving down the valley of your neck and collarbone.
You did your absolute best to not laugh as Shuichi had told you to, but you couldn't prevent the huge, goofy smile that broke out on your face. The euphoria of having someone you truly love and trust, showering you with affection, combined with the ticklish feeling of his slightly chapped lips on your neck, had caused you to giggle.
"Is it- Is it really that funny?" Shuichi grumbled, kisses turning into gentle bites as he wanted to get you to make noises that weren't giggles; not that he didn't adore the sound.
Just not in this situation, nor position.
"It's not, I-" You snorted, "I promise! I just, I feel really, really happy right now." You admitted in between laughter.
You felt Shuichi pause against your neck, and your laughter died down as you wondered if you did something wrong.
"Shuichi-?" You squeaked as you felt his warm breath and kisses travel quickly towards your stomach, right above where you wanted it most. You could feel your face heat up, as well as your core, from the mere puff of air.
Your excitement slowly turned to dread as you felt his hands slowly slide down to the waistband of your pants, and without realizing it, you stiffened up. You felt slightly guilty of your reaction; you wanted this, right? You were so excited a moment ago, where did it go? The logical part of you didn't seem to want to chime in and say, 'It's a natural reaction!'
So you settled for chewing your lip in an attempt to distract yourself from the heart-wrenching guilt.
The action hadn't gone unnoticed by Shuichi; he knew that habit all too well. It was a nervous habit, quite often in many people, but it always seemed to drive Shuichi crazy when you did it. He never noticed when others did, as he was constantly too busy staring straight at you like a boy with a hopeless crush.
But look at him now.
Shuichi from 6 months ago probably wouldn't believe the Post-Shuichi, that he had got the chance to be your boyfriend, let alone share such an intimate moment with someone as special as you.
"Hey, look at me," He grinned gently as he caught your attention.
"It's... It's just me here. You don't have to worry, or be nervous because I'm right here, and I... I'll love you no matter what." It was hypocritical to say, as his hands had practically been quivering beyond his control, but he spoke the sincere truth for you.
He watched in slight anxiousness as you stayed in silent, stunned shock. Shuichi started wondering if he should've said something else-
"O- Okay, yeah, you can- You can, um." You didn't mean to sound so awkward, but you hoped the slight eagerness laced in your voice made the message clear enough for him.
Shuichi slipped his thumbs underneath the waistband of your pants, golden eyes focused entirely on your face as to detect any discomfort.
Seeing none, he slipped the rest of it off, growing excited yet also nervous as he saw you for the first time. "You're soaked..." He uttered underneath his breath in stunned awe, unwillingly causing you to jerk your legs shut.
And who's fault is that!? You wanted to say that, but in the condition and position you were in right now, it didn't seem very possible nor ideal.
You let out a small whimper as you felt Shuichi gently encourage your legs back open, a small pout on his face as you hadn't given him enough time to savour the visual.
No words were said, and no words were needed as Shuichi communicated his wanton need for your pussy with nothing but his eyes. Captivated and persuaded by his puppy-dog eyes, you hesitantly opened your legs back up, silently gasping as you felt the cold air hit your glossy folds yet again.
Your momentary shock faltered into embarrassed confusion as you caught Shuichi staring at it with a thoughtful gaze. It was strange; you felt like an animal at the zoo up for display to just... Stare at.
But perhaps the most embarrassing thing about the whole thing was the stars in his eyes as he watched you twitch and shudder. “Sh- Shuichi.” You tried to snap him out of his gaze, face growing hotter and hotter as time passed by with him continuing to stare at your impatient pussy.
“I’m just going to… Put one in.”
If there was anything Shuichi had learned from the numerous articles on how to please your partner during sex, is to always prep them.
“Wait, huh-?"
His finger sunk in easily, prodding finger slipping into a pillowy bundle of nerves; it was like heaven on earth for Shuichi, and he wanted to make sure it felt the same for you.
"Hah- Nnnn!”
Your loud moan snapped him out of his trance, and unfortunately, he had reacted a moment too late as his finger had already been knuckle deep.
Experiencing a mini panic attack, guilt overwhelmed his body, and he moved to pull out, only to be caught by surprise as you caught his wrist right before he could.
"N- No...! It's- It's okay, mmngh- Just- just feels good, is all." You were glad you hadn't lost the complete ability to speak yet; because that'd surely be humiliating, wouldn't it?
Shuichi tensed his hand unintentionally, causing you to jolt slightly as you could feel every single movement. Shuichi's eyes widened in realization and guilt at your sudden reaction.
"A-Ah, sorry! I didn't mean to-" He cut himself off, head tilting as you moaned a little too loud for your taste — but not loud enough for his.
Shuichi shifted himself, so his face was hovering over your blissed-out one, slight confusion taking over your features as he seemed to be watching you carefully, almost as if he was expecting something —
With a sharp inhale, you felt your hole swallow in another finger, the pleasure now doubled up. If this is what fingering felt like... Then you'd have to assume the main course felt 5x as good as this, right?
Your hands shot up to his shoulders to dig your nails into, the pleasure finally becoming too much as he started experimentally moving in and out slowly.
Shuichi would've asked, 'Is this okay?' but judging by your moans and pleas for more, he concludes he has his answer.
Running his thumb down your folds, Shuichi decided he would explore your pussy as he continued his slow thrusts in your clenching hole — and what better way to do that than to accidentally brush his fingers against your clit?
You nearly sobbed, climax rising alarmingly close, before dropping as Shuichi continued with his exploration.
"Shuichi! T- There! Right there! Please!" You repeated like a mad man, nearly jolting up if it wasn't for Shuichi's body that loomed over you.
With a confused, but obedient nod of his head, Shuichi tested the waters yet again, eyebrows furrowing as he pressed around in random spots. "Ah!" His eyes widened in slight achievement as he watched you start to violently spazz out the moment he pressed onto a button-like nerve.
"C- Coming, I'm- I'm comin- Ahnn!" Shuichi began roughly circling his thumb over the bundle of nerves, unknown of how sensitive the nerve was, and unknowingly forcing you into overstimulation.
"Sh- Ah- W- Wait!" You stammered, squirming away from his unrelenting hand, unsure as to why it had felt as strong as it felt. "Wait, please!" Shuichi suddenly pulled away from your clit, panic taking over his body yet again as he carefully picked you up and slipped you onto his lap.
"I- I'm sorry...! I didn't... Are you- Are you okay?" He stuttered, eyes wide with concern.
Had he gone too far? Was he missing something? Maybe there was a spot you didn't like?
You shook your head, doing little to assure the rising storm of worry you knew Shuichi would accumulate.
"I- I'm okay, it felt good. I think you just overstimulated me a bit but," You brought your arms around his neck, scooching your partially numb ass over his erection.
"... Not like I didn't like it." You grinned lopsidedly, leaning up to capture his lips into a passionate kiss, one filled to the brim with ever-lasting passion. He wasted no time to reciprocate, face slightly reddening as he groaned from the slightest pressure of your thigh pressing down against his erection.
"Sorry...-" Shuichi slipped in an apology, before quickly being sent back into the depths of your touch.
"Don't be-" You countered, letting one of your hands run down the crevices and nooks of his scrawny chest and stomach, down to trace his faint V-line.
"Mm-" An unplanned moan slipped out, and the blush on his cheeks worsened. He was sensitive, and that was to be expected for a first-timer. Though Shuichi refused to believe it was his sensitivity, but your soft touch.
Jolts of pleasure shot up his spine, and his pants only grew tighter, to the point where his brain was screaming at him to take them off.
Lucky for him, you complied without another thought.
You broke the kiss, resting your forehead against his chest as you hunched over to unbuckle his pants. The breathy and beautiful sounds of Shuichi panting like a dog-in-heat above you only made your fingers work faster. The sound of his zipper being pulled down hit his ears, and his eyes clenched tight shut as he felt a curious hand fiddle with his boxers.
"Can I...?"
He nodded frantically, an adorable eagerness overtaking control of his actions.
As you slipped your hand into the binds of his grey-scale boxers, you weren't sure what you were going to see, or how he would feel once you got your hands on his stiff length.
Shuichi wasn't sure what he was expecting either, but expectations didn't matter when you were with each other, right?
"H- Hnnnn...!"
Well, even so, he sure as hell wasn't expecting his strained whine he let out the moment your hand coiled around the base of his cock. With his whine unintentionally egging you on, you decided to pull it out all the way, curious to see him.
God, if you were to laugh now, he'd probably die.
The truth was, you weren’t sure if you could physically laugh, nor breathe…. Or even speak for that matter. He rendered you speechless, and as he tried to read your expression, he found himself praying the silence was a good thing. Though before the thick, lust-filled air could suffocate you both, you decided to voice your thoughts.
“W- Will that fit…?” Your face was probably as hot as a pizza pocket fresh out of the oven.
Now, you weren’t sure what a real dick looked like; you hadn’t seen one in real life before, so maybe it was average in dick sizes, but you couldn’t help but shudder from uncontrollable excitement combined with the fear of that thing tearing into you.
Shuichi noticed the look of fear on your face, and his instinct kicked in; nervosity and anxiety went as he focused on your needs instead, something he’d always done, to an almost unhealthy point.
You let yourself fall back onto the mattress yet again, your head that had been lost in its own thoughts, hitting the plush pillows as Shuichi softly guided you comfortably down. It seemed only now did you realize you were completely bare to Shuichi, head to toe, naked. What a convenient time.
Shuichi’s T-Shirt struggles couldn’t distract you now, and so there you sat, avoiding eye contact with the worried boy as you shrunk further into yourself. You were ready, you repeated to yourself. But perhaps your true fear had been, was he ready for you?
His voice broke the upsetting silence, and out came the words you didn’t want to hear. “If you’re having doubts, we don’t have to do this today, or ever, for that matter.” Shuichi was so close to you, you could practically hear the sound of his little heart beating unevenly. Your hand subconsciously lifted and set itself on his chest to try and feel the small hum and vibration of his heart, and for a second you almost forgot what he had asked.
“I… Shuichi, I want this but,” You weren’t sure how to explain, and a part of you wished he could just read your mind and tell you exactly what you wanted to hear. But relationships weren’t that easy.
“I… What if I dissatisfy you? Like, what if I’m too small, or too loose, or- or what if how I look impacts the experience; are you sure you want to have your very first time with someone like me? Like-” Shuichi cut you off with his lips, the desire for you to stop talking about things that would never happen, as well as the desire to kiss you, combining into this moment.
The man wore an expression of pure earnestness; the confidence he had almost scared you. “I love you so much, and none of that matters to me. I promise you, none of that will ever happen.” His voice was heartbreakingly sincere, to the point where you felt guilty for doubting him.
He, honest to god, understood how you felt completely. Shuichi was afraid he would cum too early, or if he wasn’t long enough, or girthy enough- He was terrified of ruining your first experience with him, he just didn’t want to look the emotion because he was afraid diffidence wasn’t sexy.
Maybe it was ridiculous, but to be fair, your assumption of yourself dissatisfying him was even more so.
Not trusting your own voice to speak, you simply averted your eyes and nodded, exhaling slowly as you tried to push your doubts away. Shuichi followed your gaze, using a gentle hand to tilt your head back to face him, wanting you to look at him as he finally puts it in.
“I’ll go… really slow, okay? Tell me if you want me to stop, okay baby?” You went beet red at the new pet name, but before you could counter his sneaky remark, your voice and breath were stolen from you as you felt something warm throb at your entrance. Was that his —
“Sh- Shit...!” You hissed, eyes clenching tightly shut to conceal the small tears prickling at the corners of your eyes. You were right, it was going to hurt.
Shuichi had only slipped in the tip of his cock, marvelling at how easily it sunk in at fault to your slick. He bit back several low moans that threatened to spill out of his mouth, God, you felt so warm inside. Perhaps it was a gross thought, but Shuichi hadn’t exactly been thinking anymore, eyes clouded and nearly crossed from the intense, foreign but pleasing feeling.
“H- How does It feel this good…?” He slipped quietly to himself, eyes lidded as he lost himself in your embrace.
Gulping harshly, he stilled his hips and tore his eyes away from your walls that hugged him so snugly, shifting his attention instead to your pained expression. With a hushed and strained voice, Shuichi voiced several shy but sincere praises and assurances.
His bony hands travelled up from your hips, to lace your hands, fingers shakily lacing your fingers together. Shuichi found himself sighing in relief as he could feel your stiffness slipping away, squeezing your hand as a reminder that he was proud of you for it.
“Do you want me to move?” Shuichi asked, worried eyes darting to your concealed ones.
You pursed your lips, hesitating to shake your head no. You knew they couldn’t stay like that forever — Well, Shuichi probably would’ve if you told him to, but you couldn’t do that to him. Then again, you were still trying to get used to the painful yet filling intrusion in between your legs.
You were on a mental crossroad, unsure of what to say in response to such a simple question. And great, now you left him too long without a reply; the poor guy was just laying there. You could hear your brain screaming at you to just say something! Just fucking say something-!
Shuichi noticed your slight discomforted expression, as well as feeling you tense underneath him. A light bulb went off in his head as he thought of a way to make it all better, and he opened his mouth to speak once again.
“Hey, it’s okay, it’s okay, just um… Just trust me, okay?” You felt him squeeze your hands again, to which you squeezed back, voice caught in your throat.
You trusted him, of course, you did. What if he didn't know how much you trusted him? You would put your entire life in his hands, you would jump off a cliff if he told you it was safe.
Your lifeline spoke up again, "Take a deep breath and then exhale at three. R- Ready?"
You nodded, taking the deepest breath you could.
"One," Shuichi whispered.
"Two," You felt your shoulders relaxing.
"Three." As soon as your entire body sunk into the sheets, relaxing completely, he sunk the rest of his length inside you, pushing harshly against your hands pinned on the bed for leverage. Shuichi had been holding his breath as to not moan too loud, despite the foreign feeling, it almost felt like it was meant to be like this. Would it be cheesy if he thought fucking you was his destiny?
You gasped sharply, eyes shooting open as your jaw dropped, silent screams escaping your mouth as your back arched into him.
"Ah- Ah!" Your strained moans grew louder as the stretch finally registered within you. A bead of sweat formed on your forehead as you squeezed his hands tightly, wanting to pull him closer.
Shuichi didn't say anything, biting down on his lip and nearly drawing blood as he bottomed out, his balls clapping gently on the tender skin of your ass.
You couldn't help but whine uncontrollably the feeling being too much. You could feel everything. The small curve of his perfect cock, the feeling of his tip pulsating into your walls and every goddamn accidental shift of his Shuichi’s hips.
With his hips pressed as close as they could be against yours, you had no choice but to wrap your legs around his waist, heels bumping against his tail bone as you did such.
Everything seemed to slow after a couple of seconds filled with breathy silence, your heart rate slowing down as well. The stretch remained, but the pain slowly melted away with every exhale you took, pleasure and need overtaking it instead. “Sh- Shuichi.” After hearing your voice so brittle, Shuichi lifted his head from your shoulder in urgency and concern. “Y- Yeah? D- Don’t worry, I won’t move until y-”
“N- No, you can- You can move, it- I want it.” You stammered over your words, suddenly shy as you pleaded for him. It was embarrassing to be begging for something so lewd, but you’d soon learn that embarrassment wasn’t valid when you were screaming your lungs out.
You’d wonder why you were both suddenly so timid with each other, treating each other like fragile glass that could break if you arose your voice too high.
Nodding uncertainly at your words, Shuichi gave your hands one last reassuring squeeze unsure if he had done that to assure you or him.
With a shaky inhale, Shuichi tested the waters by rolling his hips against yours gently. Worrying whether he was doing it right, as well as worrying if he hurt you. Though he’d be lying if the worry didn’t somewhat slip his mind the moment he felt that nearly irresistible wave of bliss wash over his body. Not wanting the feeling to stop, Shuichi decided he’d do it again, causing you to moan louder than the first time.
He couldn’t help but feel something strike his heart, and before he knew it, he was thrusting harder, more, aiming in different directions to get you to moan louder.
“Hah!” It was a foreign feeling, but that didn’t necessarily mean it was a bad thing. You could feel your heart pulsating, a thin layer of sweat cultivating on your skin and his, and most of all you could feel Shuichi moving inside you. Every inch of him rubbed against your walls, and all of it just felt so fucking addicting.
“S/o!” His call for your name had lost itself in the sea of your moans as well as his own.
You could only reply in rickety moans, body bouncing as each thrust he granted upon you pushed your head closer to the headboard; the only thing keeping you as close as you were to Shuichi, being your connected hands.
“Sh- Shuichi, fuck!” You couldn’t even remember your name anymore, the name of your lover rolling off your tongue a couple of hundred times as your eyes rolled into the back of your skull, his hard pace driving you to insanity. You couldn’t even recognize yourself anymore, moans that escaped your lips sounded so pornographic you couldn’t possibly assume those were yours.
Shuichi on the other hand had been moaning and grunting like he was in pain; the way your walls clenched around him had brought him closer and closer to his high, but he didn’t want to cum just yet. He wanted to get that sweet spot.
It was so incredibly gratifying every time you called out his name; maybe not-so for the neighbours, but he couldn’t help but feel slightly smug as his neighbours would’ve known that it was — “Shuichi!” — who had been making you wail and moan like that.
Your uncertainty and discomfort from earlier disappeared into thin air, forgotten forever as you lost yourself in this new feeling of being plowed like a cornfield.
Finally finding the energy and courage to pry open your tear-filled eyes, your jaw remained slack, mouth blubbering out nonsense and ‘I love you’s as you made eye contact with Shuichi.
You felt your heart stutter and stop a moment as you saw how pretty he looked at that moment. With his facial expression contorting into one of pure pleasure, and a thin layer of sweat making his skin almost seem like it was glowing, combined with the loving look in his eyes; it was all too much, and before you knew it, you made your own lewd expression as you felt a foreign knot suddenly build up and untie in your stomach just as quick.
With stuttered, pathetic attempts at pleading his name, you attempted to get his attention as you had been slightly afraid of what was building up inside you. “Sh- Shu- Some- Something’s- Mmnhah!” You sobbed out, jaw going slack as screams poured out from your throat.
Shuichi’s eyes widened just a fraction as he realized what was happening, slowing his hips before suddenly going faster than before, grunting as he brought himself back to his high. “It’s- It’s okay baby, just let go- Urk—!” Shuichi wheezed as he felt your trembling vaginal walls clamp onto his throbbing length, feeling as if he had just gotten the air punched out of him. Well, you were only following his order.
Hunching over you, he squeezed your hands as he rolled his hips one last time, slow and deep, causing you to elicit a louder scream from the spot he hit. He had to suppress a thankful smile; there it was. He began to dig his glans especially hard into that spot, causing you to sob and squirm from the intense pleasure he had been putting onto you. “S- So good- I- I can’t-” You stammered, mind fuzzy and misfunctioning as your orgasm had been concentrated by Shuichi’s bold action.
You wondered if this was his first time; he seemed so experience like he knew all the right spots to press and prod at.
When really, he just read way too many porn mags.
Shuichi’s breath hitched as he felt his cock twitch, not long after the mini action, he had finally released inside you, going slack over your body as he nearly cried into your shoulder from how good it felt. Desperate and shaky moans and groans spilled from the binds of his thin lips, and no matter how hard he tried to dig himself into your neck, the moans remained loud.
Time seemed to slow down, Shuichi had gone flaccid inside you and quiet as he tried to catch his breath. Despite the lower half of your body still incredibly sensitive and numb, you managed to switch your positions, shifting him, so he was laying on his side instead of you.
He let himself be cradled by you, sweaty skin sticking together in an uncomfortably comfortable way. It was warm.
“... God, we should’ve done that months ago.” You half-joked, voice gravelly.
Shuichi groaned in response, wincing as he pulled out slowly.
“I don’t think I.. regret waiting.” Shuichi truthfully spoke, smiling a lopsided grin.
“Because it made this moment more special… right?” He hoped he wasn’t the only one to think so.
You nodded, eyes eventually drifting shut. “Yeah… You’re right, you’re.. always right.”
