A reading on

Marilyn Monroe

Channeled messages:

"I prefer to be called Norma."

"Being Marilyn was devastating for me."

"I was enriched with the pleasures and joys of the world, but I could only be Marilyn, not Norma."

"I created an identity to escape my sufferings, but only to be faced with more."

"I miss my friends dearly."

"My beloved ___ (she doesn't wish to state who)."

"It's just a dress. She (Kim 💀) did me a favor by ripping that old thing."

"I appreciate others caring for my memory, but they can honor me differently (she's saying don't be weird fr)."

"I have plenty of other dresses that are far more beautiful."

"I actually didn't care for dressing up that much, I preferred to dressed casually and comfortably!"

"At first I was hurt by the movies they made about me, now I just laugh, they are obsessed with me, it's ridiculous."

"Oh, yes... *grins* (I asked is she at peace now that she's passed)."

"I am finally a happy old lady with wrinkles! I'm glad!"

Marilyn's past life lessons

Norma was a master manifestor. She had a powerful subconscious mind and was able to visualize her desires into her reality. Norma wanted change and she got it. Creating a new reality for herself as "Marilyn Monroe", when she previously used to be "Norma Jean". "If I could go back I would have healed first before focusing on pursuing my dream." By manifesting her dream as an actor, this also expanded her consciousness to a higher level. Norma was highly intelligent and spiritual. When she made it to the top, she had regrets regarding her past, her choices, and her loved ones. "I abandoned someone dear to me and I miss them so much, my heart aches for my babies." I think out of everything Norma regrets was her miscarriages or inability to be pregnant full term, she very much so wanted to be a mother but it just never happened. Despite this not being her fault, she feels to a point it was. "I had to mourn the loss of my children and the person I loved the most, I was not well." Her health decreased greatly in her acting career (mentally and physically). "I was being treated worse than a dog. Everyone only liked me to laugh at me, to fantasize about me. At least a dog had a place to go home to, what did I have left? Nothing." Towards the end of her life, she took it upon herself to take many risks and challenges. "I was going to get my freedom whether other people liked it or not. I am in control of my life, no one else." There is some sort of building that's significant or needs to be addressed, but I am unsure of what that place is or what it means 🧐. The events leading up to her death 😳...

I'm just gonna leave this here for interpretation 🙋🏽‍♀️

Marilyn's passing - what is her goal for the afterlife?

Norma does have plans to reincarnate. "I want to be reunited with my children." For her next life, her life lessons will be to learn how to trust others, discover what makes her happy, and to be more disciplined. "I can say I have done things I have shouldn't and I am terribly sorry for. I want to make it up to the people I care about if they will let me." Norma will live a more simpler life and as a way to give her a break from her past life's suffering, the universe could provide her with a happy and healthy family, or she will have to take the steps to get that wish fulfillment, but I do believe it will be possible. She will have to take responsibility for her actions, do something that is a good cause for others, and be empathetic to those surrounding her. I believe in Norma's next life she could work with children, perhaps a teacher? Or participate in a cause that helps with children. If she is unable to have a full term pregnancy, she could resort to adopting kids or being a foster mother. Norma will be more accepting of the challenges that come with this next lifetime and is already aware or prepared for it. "The past is the past and I am ready for my future."

Hello!! How are you? If it's okay, can I ask for platonic headcanons with the kid characters from Genshin Impact and a Traveller!Reader (reader is the traveller, but has no specific physical descriptions)?

Ofcourse!! Sorry if YaoYao is OOC because I haven't gotten to her story yet. Characters: Diona, Klee, Qiqi, YaoYao, Qiqi, Sayu, Nahida

CW: None

Theme: Basic headcannons

Reader: Gn Traveler Reader

~💥~KLEE~💥~

Klee is a very eccentric child, so everyone around Mondstadt was relived when you showed up and made fast friends with Klee

Klee begs you to take her on adventures even if they're dangerous, but she'll go even if you say no

Whenever she's sent to solitary confinement, you go in with her even if she protests

She blames herself whenever you get in trouble with Master Jean on her behalf, but you just chuckle and tell her there's nothing to worry about

Albedo is very thankful that you watch over her while he's busy

He's able to get work done without worrying about Klee blowing things up... Well sort of

You go fishing with her and that's how you end up getting in trouble most of the time

People call you the sibling chaos duo

She always holds your hand no matter where you guys are

When she cries, you comfort her by telling her stories or coloring with her

When you cry, she makes you drawings and picks flowers as well as patting your head

She loves telling you all about Dodoco and her mom

When you travel to other nations, Klee misses you dearly

She doesn't have the energy she used to when you were around and its just as concerning

Jean tries to help but realizes she really can't do much

Klee writes you letters all the time (with Albedos help) and you write back with a little trinket from the nation you're in

"When are they gonna come back Mr. Albedo?"

"When they get back Klee."

Her impatience drives her to try and get to you

Though either Kayea, Diluc, or Jean will catch her before she leaves

Once you come back, Klee clings to you and takes you on many playdates with her

"Yay! Y/n's back! We're gonna play all day!!"

"Uhm Klee, don't you think the traveler should rest before you two play?"

"It's okay Master Jean, I always have time to play with Klee."

~🐟~DIONA~🐟~

She's reluctant at trusting you at first

She thinks most adults are the same so when you came to her tavern, she didn't think you were any different

But when you asked if she wanted any help with anything she was sort of shocked

'Why do they want to help me?'

She lets you help and you often go to the tavern just to help

This starts the friendship between you and Diona

After an adventure in Mondstad you'd always order a non alcoholic drink and tell Diona about things that might help her with her alcohol demolish goal

She always appreciates the information you give her, but is disappointed that it never seems to work out

Whenever she has a day off, she'll always spend it with you

Whether it be helping with chores or walking around the forests

She loves any gift you make for her and will hang it on the wall of her tavern

If you ever catch her crying, you'll always pat her head and give her words of affirmation and comfort

If she ever catches you crying, she makes you your favorite drink and tells you all sorts of funny stories from her witnessing drunks around her place

She always enjoys your tales of adventuring

Whenever you go, she always tells you to come back safe and that she'll save a snack and drink for you when you get back

When you're in another nation she worries about you endlessly

She wouldn't admit it, but the ways she serves customers is way more snarky than usual

"Please be safe Y/n."

"Do not worry Diona, Y/n will be back before you can even tell any time as ever passed."

"I know that Prince! But I won't stop worrying about my sibling-"

"You called Y/n your sibling Diona."

Diona gets so flustered when people figure out that you're like a sibling to her

When you get back she treats you to so many sweets while she listens to your tales

"I'm so glad you're safe Y/n!"

"Thanks Diona! How about I help you now?"

"Nope! You're gonna rest, I can handle the Tavern for a bit longer on my own"

~❄️~QIQI~❄️~

Its odd for Qiqi to remember someone like you for so long

She makes it a priority not to forget you

Baizhu is grateful for you to be so kind to Qiqi and take her on outings when he's busy

He's also quite baffled that you can understand her nonsense speaking when she confuses something with another thing

She always loves walking around with you around Liyue as you teach her things from the nations you've been too

Her book has become a scrapbook at this point of photos of you and her as well as notes that she takes so she doesn't forget your stories

Whenever you find a good secluded spot, you two stretch and just talk to each other

When people see you two together, they find it odd that you out of all people would be able to befriend the little zombie

Qiqi tries her best to tell you memorable stories but often forgets the ending or important parts to it

She gets sad when she can't remember a story for you but you cheer her up by creating your own endings or details

Qiqi genuinely laughs with you around and doesn't always have a flat face

When you catch her crying, she immediately hugs you telling you about how she doesn't like feeling this and you let her cry it out while cuddling her and teaching her breathing techniques

When she catches you crying, she's unsure what to do and gets Baizhu to help comfort you but if he's not around she offers you some snacks and hugs

Whenever you go adventuring to a new nation she gets really upset

Every time you mention it she runs away but comes back after a day and wishes you good luck

She sends you photos of her adventures while you're not around and you giggle all the time when you look at them

"Is Y/n okay?"

"I'm sure they'll be alright Qiqi."

She askes Baizhu that every day of every hour

He gets annoyed by it sometimes but understands the girls concerns

When you get back you immediately go to her and start your stories and give her photos of the places you saw

"Can we go there together next time?"

"Of course Qiqi! Wherever you want to go, whatever you want to see I'll take you!"

~🐇~YAOYAO~🐇~

YaoYao cares for you so much and tries to protect you despite her age or stature

She loves taking care of you as if she were the older sibling

Whenever you get hurt during a commision or when you adventure with her, she brings Yuegui out to help you feel better

You often help her with her things when she has things to work on and such

Madame Ping loves that you have befriended her apprentice since YaoYao hasn't had many friends and seems so stuck on acting like an adult

YaoYao sometimes treats you as if you were younger but you don't mind since you get back at her and she doesn't mind

You often take her places and trust her the most when you adventure around Liyue with her

She loves telling you about all the things she's learning under Madame Ping as well as from you

YaoYao loves to take you to her safe spaces that are secret when she isn't feeling to good and just needs a break from people

You both often play around and climb trees together as well as joke a bit

When you catch her crying, its sort of rare since she never shares her true feelings with you but when she does you embrace her and reasure her that it is okay to cry and have the feelings she is having

When she catches you crying, YaoYao tries her best to make you feel better by letting you hold Yuegui and making you your favorite snack

When you go adventuring to another nation, she worried about you so much

"Still worried about Y/n YaoYao?"

"What if they come back hurt? I'm not there to help!"

"I'm sure they'll be fine, they are a very capable adventurer"

Madame Ping usually reassures YaoYao whenever she spirals into those what if thoughts

Whenever you send her something from the nation your from she is so relieved

She often sends 3 letters a day checking in on you and making sure you're eating well

Once you come back she immediately runs to the dock if she wasn't there already waiting for you

After she checks you for any injuries and such she takes you to the special spots you two have reserved for hanging out

"Y/N!"

"Hey YaoYao! Want to go to our special spot?"

"Yes please! I was so scared you wouldn't come back!"

"I always do and always will."

~🎐~SAYU~🎐~

Sayu considers you her sleeping buddy

She always depends on you for either distracting, avoiding, or talking to her caregiver

Sayu loves when you nap with her because it means she's even safer and is able to sleep longer when there is a disruption

Whenever she has a job she takes you with her and you always are willing to go

Even when you do most of the work, you just want Sayu to be well rested

Whenever she is upset about not being tall or the sleeping isn't making her taller, you take her on your shoulders and sort of help her feel better

You take her on sibling lunch dates and make sure she doesn't force herself to eat everything and tell her to set limits

You encourage her to do her own work when she brings you on missions bit by bit

Her caregiver is so grateful to you because she can finally take a break and not really worry about Sayu as much

You two tend to play games with each other but its very minimal and short

If someone were to call her lazy, you'd stick up for her and tell them that she works just as hard as anyone else

When you catch her crying you pull her into your lap and try to help her with whatever she is crying about but she ends up falling asleep in your lap

When she catches you crying she cuddles you and take you to where the foxes are so they can help you cheer up

When you leave to adventure other nations, Sayu is incredibly lazy and has to hide from her caregiver again

"Sayu! Come out this instant!"

"No! I'm not doing anything without Y/n!"

Sayu feels a bit better when you send her letters and telling her you're working hard

She works hard after those letters but its really rare

Once you come back, she drags you to the usual napping spot and naps with you

"I'm so glad you're back Y/n.."

"Did you miss me so much you didn't sleep?"

"No, I just like having naps with you."

~🍃~NAHIDA~🍃~

She first found you in the forests of Sumeru before the whole incident in Sumeru

You caught her attention and always made sure to make herself present in your dreams

Once you saw her in person you connected the dots really quickly and she became one of the quickest best friends you have ever made

She loves teaching you new things and spends a lot of time with you in the forests or in the main areas of Sumeru taking you to a bunch of best food places

People are shocked to see you treat her as a sibling but they don't question it since they don't want to offend their god

She loves hearing all the knowledge you've obtained from traveling all over Tevat

She likes coming up with funny analogies with you and seeing you giggle with her

She loves introducing you to things she's interested in and helping her research topic

Nahida found it funny how you and Scaramouch/Wanderer met again after the fight

You were all protective of her and saying if he hurt your sister that he would be dead

Nahida likes that you consider her a sister and would do anything to protect you as well as help you grow as a person

Whenever she cries you always manage to make her laugh with a funny story or with funny movements

Whenever you cry she puts you into a dream world to distract yourself to calm down and then when you come back the two of you talk about it to find solutions to the issue

When you go adventuring to another nation, she always visits you in your dreams

It startles you every time but once you get used to it, the two of you talk about how things are in Sumeru

"When are you going to come back Y/n?"

"It's a secret little leaf."

"Aww please tell me! I miss you so much!"

"But if I tell you I won't get to surprise you when I come back"

Once your back you always make it a surprise by sneaking into her Sanctuary with a little tea set

The two of you have a tea party and talk about the stories and new knowledge you have obtained

Nahida loves that you travel and wishes to much to come with you

Sure being in your dreams helps her a lot but it doesn't compare to being there with you physically

"What happened next?"

"Well as I was fighting, I figured out that the weakness is behind the neck, so you just put pressure there and then it'll colapse"

"Can I come with you next time Y/n?"

"Maybe, you better learn how to fight if you want to come little leaf"

I had a dream and I was wondering if you could write it!

I have a favorite stuffie! She's a bunny (she's pink and named bunbun😊), and in the dream, someone hides her from little me, and BDE finds out and gets even more protective over me. It takes all day, and Jerry's help to figure out where it is, and it was in the room I wasn't allowed in like ever! So BDE figured out I didn't misplace it, but someone hides it on purpose 😯 can you believe that!!!

oh no!!! i'm glad he was able to find it!!! this was super fun to write, thank you for the request! <3 my favorite stuffie is a big, fluffy dog and i can't imagine not being able to sleep with him every night 😥

wc: 1k

you really didn't want to bother elvis, not while he was deep in conversation with jerry in the music room. but your favorite plushie, your best friend, the little pink bunny that you loved so dearly had suddenly gone missing. whenever bunbun wasn't in your hands, she was sat somewhere patiently for your return in the same spot every single day. you looked everywhere in your room but she was nowhere to be found! and elvis would never take her from you–not your favorite plushie.

elvis could spot you in the corner of his eye, shyly hiding behind the wall. he raised a brow, “now, i know that ain’t a lil’ ghost hidin’ in my walls, is it?”

you walked out from behind the wall shyly, hands behind your back.

“well, hi darlin’. what's goin’ on?” he asked, squatting in front of you.

“uhm..” you glanced over at jerry then back at elvis. “bunbun…s-she's gone ‘n i can't find her.”

elvis gasped, “and you looked everywhere in your room?”

you nodded. “even under my bed! ‘n it's scary under there!”

he stood up and let out a small ‘hm..’, placing his hands on his hips. of course, he didn't touch it. jerry didn't touch it. you were very careful of where you placed bunbun and he knew of it. the only time he ever touched the plushie was if you were having a bad day and you specifically asked for him to bring it to you. he disallowed people going upstairs without his permission–he couldn't even remember the last person to ask to go upstairs that wasn't to go into his office. someone definitely did this on purpose, that is unless there's a bunny plushie thief on the loose that he wasn't aware of.

unless you really did misplace it. he knows you aren't fully there when little and can be forgetful sometimes.

elvis sighed, “well, looks like we’re lookin’ for a bunny on the run.” he looked at jerry. “you mind helpin’?”

“not at all. i’ll go look around outside.” he nodded, stepping out the front door to start his search.

“i swear i didn' lose her, daddy!” you sniffled. “you gotta find her!”

“we’re gonna find bunbun, i promise ya.” he took your hand and began searching everywhere inside the house.

no sign of her in the music room or the foyer. mary hadn't seen her anywhere in the kitchen either. elvis searched the kitchen himself just in case, still nothing. no sign in the den–just a few broken crayons that mysteriously found their way behind a couch. you were starting to get worried. you don't know what you'd do if she was gone forever. you knew you didn't misplace her, you would never.

jerry came back inside, sighing. “no sign of her outside. i looked everywhere. none of the horses got her, nothin’ in the stables either.” he frowned at the sad expression on your face, “sorry, kid.”

“she can't just be gone forever….” you sniffled, wiping at your eyes with the back of your hand.

“we ain't givin' up just yet. let’s go check the bedroom one more time, alright?” elvis brought you back upstairs to the bedroom, tear the whole room apart trying to find your beloved bunny. he looked in every drawer, behind every piece of furniture and under every place he could think of.

the bunny was a lost cause and honestly, he didn't know how to tell you. “honey, i think bunbun might be gone. we’ve really looked everywhere…..”

“she can't be gone!” you cried, “daddy, you said you'd find her!”

“i did baby, but we’ve torn this whole house apart and-” an idea popped into his head, one last room he hadn't checked. his office. you weren't allowed in there, so it'd make no sense for bunbun to be in there but it was worth a shot anyway. “hold on. stay right there.” he sternly pointed at you, showing you he meant it. you nodded, taking a seat on the bed.

elvis unlocked the door to his office, entering and beginning his own search. he checked the file drawers, boxes, under the sofa, nothing. he finally moved to his desk, searching every crack and crevice until he came across pink fur sticking out of the bottom drawer. he opened it, meeting face to face with your pink bunny. “well, hello there.” he took it out, checking for any marks or tears. she looked just fine, unharmed, and still pink. but how did it even get there?

he walked out of his office, looking at jerry from up the steps, “you been in my office recently?”

“no, i don't think so. why?”

he held up the bunny, “someone hid this damn bunny from her in my desk.”

elvis wasn't gonna lie, he was fuming at whoever decided to hide her from you. he knew it was on purpose, you were his good baby and never entered his office without his permission. there was no reason for her to be in there.

his friends knew you were little and loved that bunny to death. most were accepting and understanding of it, but some were confused by it–always finding their way out of being stuck with you while little. he had an idea who was up to this prank, he'd definitely be firing someone later.

he approached you in the bedroom, a fake sad expression lingering on his face with his hands behind his back. “sweetheart,” he crouched down slowly. you felt more tears begin to pool in your eyes, only to be met with the pink bunny as he excitedly pulled her out in front of you. “look who i found!”

“bunbun!” you squealed, taking her and holding her close to your chest. “you found her!”

“just like i said i would!” he grinned, patting your knee. “now, honey. you keep a close eye on yittle bunbun here. and make sure to always stay by daddy’s side when you've got her in your hands. can you do that for me?”

“mhm!” you pet the soft fur on your plushie, smiling down at her finally being in your hands.

he smiled, giving you a quick kiss. “you go on and play now, come get me if you need anything.” he looked down at the plushie, tapping on her nose. “happy to have you back!”

「 LOVER OF MINE 」

Genre: Angst.

Trope: lovers to strangers.

Network: @sandsofire

WC: 747

My love,

I saw you today. You looked so…..beautiful. You looked happy and I'm so glad. I'm so glad that you're happy. You were almost glowing you know? I was a few tables over. I wanted to go up to you and ask you how you were but I didn't dare. I saw her with you and she's so beautiful. Just like you. It's like you both were made for eachother. Like, God has created you and her for each other. I don't know her name but with how angelic she looked next to you I could only assume that it'd be something just as beautiful. You looked so happy with her. Like she brought the whole world to your feet. Like she hung the stars in the sky.

I wanted to be selfish. I wanted to ruin what you had. I wanted to go up to you and ruin what moment you were having with her. But I couldn't. I just couldn't. I didn't have the guts. I would've cried if you were to tell me who she was to you. I know who she is– I just– I don't think I could've taken that, you know? I know you've moved on. Of course you have, it's been almost 6 years since we've parted our ways right? Yeah. It's—

I still haven't moved on. I couldn't. I thought I had moved on but turns out I didn't and it hurts. It hurts to know that you've healed and moved on like it was easy. I couldn't. Every other night I'd dream about you. About you just being by my side. And then I'd wake up to realize that I'm still stuck on my past. I'm still the loser that I was 6 years ago. I still love you. And it hurts to see you move on with someone who loves you like how I used to— maybe even more than me. And I have no right to be sad. I know.

The last time I saw you, a year ago, you gave me your books so I could study for my test. I was sick and you wanted to carry my bags so that I won't be hurting. We sat and talked for hours. You told me that your mother passed. I told you about my illness. You told me you got into university and I told you I didn't. You showed me the scar on your arm when I asked, a football related injury. You were the same clumsy man I had loved all those years ago. I fixed your hair for you. I ignored the call you got. I thought it was just your friend since you didn't pick up. You held my hand as you helped me walk to the bus stop.You smiled at me.

You smiled at me and I foolishly thought I had a chance. A chance at a love that I so dearly craved. You are– were my endgame. Now as days go by and I see all these people who are in love, I feel hollow inside. Like I'd never get to feel love anymore. Like I'd never be whole again. You left and took a significant piece of my heart with you.

I guess I'm just broken now. I can't seem to truly love anyone anymore you know? Not like the way I loved you. Now every time someone shows me any kind of love I get scared. I get nervous. I don't know why. I just can't seem to let go of this hurt anymore. I guess it's insecurity, that no one would love me like you did or maybe because I know I won't be able to love anyone the way I loved you. And I know it'd hurt them like how it hurts me. I can't do that to a human being. I just can't.

I can't even hate her, your girlfriend, she seems perfect. And she makes you happy. That's the most important thing. You're happy. That's all that matters to me.

I just wish it was me who made you this happy.

I'd never send this letter to you. I'd never hurt you like that. I could never. So I guess this is the end of us. In my mind.

Today is the day I let you go. Today is the day I free you from what's left of my heart. I'll heal. I'll live.

Sincerely,

The one who loved you.

Pink petals scatter behind her despite the little princess’s best efforts to keep her gift steady. She had really underestimated just how messy these specific flowers could be this time of year, though fortunately she’s able to find her similarly pink-haired target before she loses every last petal to the wind.

Elise’s beams, rushing towards the other princess as quickly as she can without jostling the delicate flowers too much. “Sakura! Happy birthday!” She holds the bouquet out, pushing it into Sakura’s hands admittedly a little forcefully in her excitement.

“They’re sakura! Like you! Hehe,” Elise giggles as she points to the tiny pink flowers. “I thought you’d maybe miss Hoshido a little bit, so I had some brought over.” For something so small, they were surprisingly hard for her to get into Fodlan. But it’s worth it if she likes it. Even more so if it helps her miss Hoshido— like she assumes she does— just a little less. She’d definitely miss Nohr a bunch of her siblings weren’t with her, anyway.

“So!” Elise claps her hands together once the flowers were securely in the grasp of their recipient. “What do you wanna do? It’s your day, so we can do whateeeeever you want! Anything at all! Promise!”

Sakura was the kind of person who loved celebrating events and above all, her birthday certainly was one of her feavourite moment to be grateful and to feast, yet-- it wasn't the same without her beloved siblings, for more than a year now. She missed them so dearly, but she knew as well that she made a lot of new friends at the Garreg Mach Monastery: everyone here was so warm and welcoming, she felt blessed to be able to share several happy moments with them all.

But, some of them were actually deeper in her heart and that was when she heard her voice.

"Elise!!" she turned to face the petite blonde princess, her dainty smile always accompanying her and this time, not only the smile was accompanying her. "For me?!" Sakura turned red, her cheeks softened as she shared a gentle smile with Elise; she always knew how to make her happy, especially during this unique occasions. And she was absolutely true: she missed Hoshido like the air, but as soon as she saw her face, every cloud in her head is swept away and peace returned.

"I'm so glad for your gift, it means the world to me.. You mean the world to me, Elise" she couldn't help but threw her free hand around her neck, embracing her body in a warm gesture of affection. Now she was happy.

"And of course, we might start with a tea party!" she said as she turned away from the embrance, then digging her nose into the bouquet -they were so splendid. She returned her gaze to her, "It's not just my day, it's our day, understood?" and she lastly smiled, the most authentic smile after so long, dedicated to someone who could truly appreciate and understand her love.

#nohrslittleflower #elise support #ask #//happy birthday to Sakura :celebrate:#and thank you so much for this beautiful gift metal it means literally the world for her :oldplead: <3

Hi Ro! 🩶 Just wanted to drop in, to let you know how much I absolutely adore your art!! 🫶💕 (like it truly makes me so happy to see whenever you've posted a new one! 🥰)

So in relation to that I wanted to ask: What are the top 5 things that inspire you to do art? 👀

(also curious if there is anything about art in general, that you'd like to talk about! 🤗🩵)

Hey stella <333 thank you so much for enjoying my art :] I'm so glad you like it❤️

1. My hyperfixations - as soon as I join a Fandom or community I immediately feel the need to draw fanart for it, anything I'm passionate about really😅games, movies, fanfics, youtubers etc..

2. Other people - whenever I get requests for certain parings or drawings I get so happy because I'm like- "this person likes MY art so much they want to request!?" and I get so exited whenever someone even reblogs my stuff :D

3. People I love - anytime I have a friend that I love so dearly I constantly wanna draw them and give them gifts. If you somehow were able to look through my sketchbooks over the years, you would find month long periods where I would only be drawing one person. These things come and go but I love the rush of creativity I get whenever it happens :)))

4. Boredom - I know it's weird- hear me out. When I was in school I always found myself doodling in my notebooks when a class was boring (which it usually was haha) and it subconsciously really helped with my art journey and with my inspiration over the years.

5. Myself - sometimes I feel that the only way to express what's going on in my head is through art. It doesn't matter what kind. Sometimes I feel really overwhelmed and a random fucking poem about it pops into my head so I write down. Maybe I saw something really beautiful somewhere and absolutely HAD to draw what it made me feel. I find myself in so many things around me and I want to get it on paper or in my notes app just to preserve the feeling.

Art runs in my family, I have a few cousins who draw and on both my parents sides they have a history of it. Though my main inspiration to start drawing was my sister. My older sister draws so amazingly even three year-old me wanted to be like her. She unknowingly encouraged me to continue expressing myself and I am forever grateful for her. It's also so fun to see how other hobbies translate, for example I plays guitar; I didn't know this until after I started playing but my dad always wanted to play when he was a kid and my mom played guitar when she was in seventh grade (I started playing in seventh grade too!) my brother and my cousin also took a few classes and so did my grandpa on my mom's side. It's so cool to see things that don't seem genetic translate in different family members👍 okay sorry for the rant I got carried away😅😅

John Wick 4 head cannons but it's all Caine & Koji because my friends hate me for it :3

• Caine & Koji would never often go out together in public areas; and even if they do, they'd go to quiet places. Places such as small cafes, to the park they went to as a child, and or to a small orchid garden. Koji loves visiting the orchid garden, since he was a 16 year old kid, where he'd often go with friends, especially Caine.

• Koji was an open minded person, someone who found peace in his life, especially after having Akira, and raising her by himself. Caine is someone who was always afraid to express his feelings to many, other than his friends. Caine has been through many issues, issues that he doesn't want to talk about; but Koji was someone Caine trusted with the truth. Koji helped Caine overcome all of the bottled emotions. Koji was so glad to help Caine be able to open up. Caine only ever had one thing he'd never opened up about to Koji. Caine loved Koji so, so much; even when they were young. Caine was so in love. It was never platonic. Koji felt the same way. Koji loved Caine so dearly. Koji had always thought if would have been a hopeless dream. Caine had written so many letters for Koji, letters he never sent to him.

Anyways, sorry for not posting. My household is not doing too well right now, and I'm very busy. I want to spend as much time with my loved ones after a long day of hard working for 9 hours. I do post on other accounts, though! Well, not often.

Happy New Year!

{out of dalmasca} Happy 2024, everyone! I just wanted to thank some folks, while I'm here, so excuse me while I get mushy for a second.

@illbringthechaosmagic - I have so enjoyed writing with you, it's not even funny. You are an amazing writer, and the life your pour into your muses makes every story we write better than the last. I'm so happy we have become good friends in addition to being writing partners, and whether its screaming about our muses in messages, writing threads, or having fun with asks, I've truly enjoyed every moment. You're not only an awesome writer, you're a sweet and wonderful person too. My rp experience just wouldn't be the same without you and your muses. Here's to another year of writing and gabbing together! <3

@starcchild/@disillusionedjudge - You are a very gifted writer, and I have always been so incredibly impressed with the level of thought and detail you pour into your OCs. You make them seem so alive, and whatever canon they're meant to fit into, they always do so seamlessly, to the point of me forgetting they're not really part of the canon. Carter is absolutely canon for me for the MCU! Each of your OCs is so engaging and three-dimensional that from writer to writer, I'm very impressed with what you've been able to do with them! I've enjoyed writing many of my muses with many of yours, and I've definitely enjoyed our OOC conversations too. I'm happy to call you my friend, and I hope we can continue writing together for a long time to come. =)

@tarnishedxjudgement - I'm so glad to have found a kindred spirit who loves FFXII as much as I do! It has been wonderful screaming about all things FFXII with you, and I will forever be impressed with your deep understanding of Noah/Gabranth. You write him in a way I can only aspire to, and it has been so much fun writing my other FFXII muses with your Noah. You capture his motivations, his personality, his emotions, his mannerisms, everything perfectly. And developing our more realistic, more detailed Dark!Ivalice AU together has been so rewarding, breathing new life into a game I already loved so dearly. =)

Mantis-mun - Okay, so I know you're the only Mantis-mun I write with, but even if you weren't, I'd still say you were the best. From the little I've seen of Mantis, you write her so well, not just her dialogue and personality, but the whole feelings she gives as a character. You make her seem like she truly is one of a kind, or the last of her kind, with such a unique perspective on life, the universe, and those around her. It's been so interesting and fun to write some of my muses with your Mantis, and I feel privileged that you take the time to do so, even if you don't always have a ton of love for this hellsite! XD

Thor-mun - I admire your ability to come up with so many different AUs, worlds, times, and scenarios for your muses! Thank you for all the interesting interactions on this blog and others, and for putting up with how badly I keep up with all your ideas sometimes. Even if I'm ridiculously slow to answer them all, I read every single one, and your creativity is always inspiring. You've caused me on several occasions to really think outside the box with my muses and stretch my own skills a bit as a writer, and for that I'm truly grateful. It's always wonderful to not only find great writers to write with on here, but to also grow as a writer myself because of the interactions I have, so thank you for helping me to do that! =)

I hope all of you have a wonderful 2024, and I look forward to writing more with all of you! <3

#{ out of dalmasca } ᵒᵒᶜ #{thank you for writing with me and putting up with my raving about fictional people!}#{i love you all! <3}

Jaune incoming surprise visit and hug from your mom and dad brace yourself for lectures and spine shattering bear hugs!

"Hey Jaune!"

Jaune's head swiveled to the left, hearing both of his sisters, Indy and Lapus, who were staying at Beacon for a while. *No one ever asked anything about them!*

"What's uuuupppp!"

The pitch in his voice sky rocketed as he was suddenly pulled from his seat and sort of lifted? He wasn't pulled too high from the ground as the onee who grabbed him, not only was able to manhandle him, but she was also far shorter than he!

"Ah! There is my dearest son. You're looking healthier than the day you departed from us!"

"Ma...Ma!?"

Everyone who had been there, Team RWSY, and the rest of his team, all stared wide eyed! Shocked at the woman before them... well except May, May recognized her, because as far as she could tell the woman had hardly changed. She still held herself with a gate of strength, and though she appeared young, she could see the subtle signs of aging. Yet, she was still as beautiful as the day that May had met her.

Pyrrha, however, was not quite as calm as May, and despite the excitement from the rest of the group. She was worried that she would not hit it off with her future mother in law!

"So then."

Jaune found himself released, though his mother quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him. Causing him to spin out of control till he protectively landed in the arms of what the crowd could only describe as a giant of a man! Everyone looked up, at an individual that dwarfed even Rua.

Muscles and a bit of girth on his belly, the elder Trevor Arc, smiled with a splendent gaze as he pulled his son into a crippling bear hug.

"Ah! Jaune! It's so good to see you well! I'm so excited to see you healthy and going!"

It was apparent to all, that the parents loved their son dearly. After all, why wouldn't they? Especially seeing him in far better condition than he'd been before.

Though... any excitement stopped as Theodora, or just Theo, turned her attention to the crowd.

She said nothing, instead examining each girl before her, including Ren!

Till she stopped upon both Pyrrha and May.

"Well then..." She didn't say much more, till she took a step forward.

Even, or perhaps because, Pyrrha was so experienced, the young champion couldn't help but take a minor step back. '

"Greetings girls."

To her surprise, any form of animosity she may have expected was... missing?

Instead she was greeted with a warm smile, as both her and May gave one another worried glances.

"Thank you." The mother of their lover bowed before them, "For looking after, and making my son very happy... and..." The rest of the group were just as shocked as she did the same for them. "Thank you all for being his friends."

Lapus and Indyboth gave one another smiling glances, even Lapus, who was naturally jealous of Pyrrha, seemed to be pleased with the situation.

"We shall be staying here for a while, as we have business. I do hope we'll get the chance to speak properly. For now, we must check into the guest rooms."

Though, before she left, Theo stopped and glanced at May, "And May." The short, plump, voluptuous girl was pulled into a tight, warm hug that was filled with nothing but love and regret. "I'm so glad you're doing alright."

And May... she felt tears form... real warm heartfelt tears...

"Thank you..."

"Of course dear, I'm just glad you found one another again."

Pyrrha... Pyrrha wasn't sure what to say, but then Theo opened her arms and beckoned her forward and... she felt that same warmth May did.

"I'm looking forward to knowing you both... though I wish he'd talked to us first, he's had nothing but good things to say about you both. So again, thank you, from the bottom of my heart."

Pyrrha wasn't sure what she'd expected from Jaune's mother, part o her thought she'd be... more aggressive for her taking away her son... but she couldn't help but lean into the hug her heart blossoming.

#Trevor Arc #Tempverse #Theo Arc #Lapus Arc #Indy Arc #Jaune Arc #PYrrha Nikos #May Zedong #combined arms

Thoughts on The Owl House Season 3 Thanks to Them

Let's begin

I loved the opening intro for this special. I knew when I heard it from the sneak peek that it would be amazing and it really was. I also like how this episode opened just immediately after King's Tide and we get a few minutes to see Luz reunited with her mom, explaining the situation to Camilia and Vee, Luz and Hunter comforting each other over their trauma and secrets from their friends, and just overall just seeing how the kids get themselves comfortable with what appears to be a long stay in the human realm.

Luz being in school was a wish that I'm glad that came true. Apparently Luz has an infamous reputation of being weird and doing crazy stunts to the point where the new kids were in awe of her. But it foreshadowed the reason why Luz acts that way and how no matter what she did, the people at school, the town, heck almost everyone wouldn't be able to understand her interests and passions. Her love of fantasy came from someone she loved and miss dearly but there was no one else who could understand that feeling. It was only when she left Gravesfield that Luz was able to flourish and be able to express herself in a way that helped her cope and it shows that quite clearly. Luz tries so hard to fit in and be herself but the town just wouldn't accept her earnest attempts.

Camila is the Best Mom ever and I know that when she meets Eda, they're going to be the best of friends and co parents you'll ever meet. I found her character to be very interesting as it reiterates that Camilia does care and understand Luz's struggle to be creative and fit in because she was like that too. I always knew that Camila just wanted to make sure that Luz was happy and unafraid to be herself and the same goes for the rest of kids as well. Camila, however, had to hide most of the things that made her happy in order to try to be accepted and not be made fun of or bullied for it. Just like how Luz was being treated before.

The witch kids exploring Gravesfield was great to see and I love how much of a dork they were in trying to stay hidden while also trying to solve a mystery all by themselves. Seeing the gang hanging out and getting to attend an autumn festival for Halloween was a dream come true.

Hunter, oh my sweet boy. He suffered so much in this special. He was finally starting to find himself and learning more about who he wanted to be. He was beginning to be truly happy living his life as a normal kid and not as a coven scout or the Golden Guard. That is until He reappeared. Hunter is truly the epitome of just wanting happiness for him but when?!

The story of the Wittebane Brothers was everything that I wanted but had a surprising twist to it. The brothers were actually orphans and were originally not from Gravesfield. They had decided to adopt the towns ideals in order to fit in which was being witch hunters. That is until they met a real witch by the name of Evelyn and showed them the wonders of magic. Caleb had followed her while Philip went after them to save his brother from the evil witch.

The Climax!!! I have no words to describe it, it just makes me sad to think about it.

Overall I loved this special so much and this wait for the next two is going to be brutal.

Some time ago someone sent an ask talking about how much they admire Magnus’ strength in tlnd for being able to finally remove himself from toxic environments and knowing his limits.

I’ve been think about that since i read tlnd for the first (of many) time.

It must’ve hurt so bad and I can’t help but envy Magnus for being able to do that…

Just over a year ago I met someone who came to mean SO much to me in such short time. We got too close too quickly and I truly care about her from the bottom of my heart. She isn’t a saint or an angel or some incredibly good person but I loved her so much. The thing is that we aren’t good for each other. We both knew our relationship would end up hurting us both but we still continued. Keep in mind we never dated… we weren’t even “talking” we were just friends but it always felt like there was something more between us (at least to me).

We had an argument. It was a simple disagreement but she took it too far because she thought that’s what I was doing as well. I told her we’re done. She was sad. I felt confused… i wasn’t sad but I wasn’t particularly happy. After about one week of no contact I sent her a note asking if she’d tell me what’s on the test (she had it on that day and I had it the day after). She said she would in exchange of being friends again and that was that. When she told me the stuff she was nice about it but I couldn’t help but be bitter. She had told everyone and was openly bitter while I had to keep it all to myself. That made her mad. Tonight we’re going to talk and I think I need to fully breakup with her for good.

We arent good for each other. She is hurting me in more than one way and I can’t let her get in the way of my academic success. I’m tired. She got so many unnecessary people involved and never listens. I know I’d be doing the right thing but I’m so fucking scared. We have a lot of mutual friends (that she has been bad mouthing me to) and I don’t wanna lose all of them. As hard as that is to admit, I don’t wanna be alone at school. It’s scary. I can’t believe I ever loved her. She totally led me on.

Wanting to explain our entire relationship will be way too long (and painful) but I don’t know if I should do it. Just because I know it’s the right thing for me doesn’t make it any easier to do. I don’t want to go back to being friends and pretending like nothing happened. I was open to doing that because I thought she was getting close to crossing a line but I think she has already crossed it.

Oh my love. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Getting your heart and trust broken by someone you loved dearly is literally the worst thing ever. I'm sending you a lot of love.

I'm so happy (and so fucking proud) to see you so self-aware. This kind of self-awareness often comes from trauma and pain. But if you are learning how to be and do better from books (from Magnus!) and from the world around you, that's amazing. Good for you.

It's never easy to walk away from something. Whether it's good or bad. Walking away requires strength. Walking away from something you want to hold onto requires even more strength.

I won't lie to you and say it's gonna feel better. You know it won't. It's bullshit. But we do it not because it will make us feel better but because we don't have to regret it in the future.

I know you are scared of losing your friends and your social circle. I hope they will go easy and will be empathetic. You absolutely don't have to say the 'whole story' or 'explain yourself' to retain your friends. If these friends choose someone who likes to badmouth, then that's their choice.

PS - telling someone 'i will help you if you will give me what i want' is a big red flag. bad mouthing and shit talking someone the moment they set up boundaries and call out your bullshit is even a bigger red flag. I'm glad you can see through it.

i hope the talk goes well. i'm here if you want to rant or scream or cry x

chigiri! despite being the one with the shortest fic (still pretty long!) it was honestly my favorite (after bachiras ofc). the idea of having someone that understands you in a level that no one can is truly amazing (and the irony of a soccer player w a leg injury and an artist w wrist injury god that was good). the scene that got me the most was deff when reader met their old art friends(?), that got me real good,, and chigiri helping us out uwaah, but yea i get it not wanting to let others know abt your weaknesses and all and the fact chigiri covered for us in that one moment went straight to my heart!! although overall it's really a bittersweet thing with the uncertainty and the change in your body that will deff impact your future ughh so good. despite not being able to show all of chigiri i still feel like his character was on point (your efforts showed a lot!! i could totes see him doing all that)

(referencing this fic)

Thank you for reading my chigiri fic! I'm proud of all of my bllk fics, but I think I have a soft spot for an artist's swan song just bc it touches on some personal topcis for me, so I'm glad you enjoyed it too!

I really had a blast writing reader and chigiri's relationship! I love the parallels between their injuries, and how they support each other during such a vulnerable time in their lives. It's a lot more "serious" and "mature" than the other fics, which focused more on romance. This fic focused a lot more on reader and their dreams!!

I'm glad you liked that scene with reader's old classmates! I had a friend beta-read this fic for me, and she suggested fleshing out that scene a bit more, and I appreciate her advice dearly! There really is something about not wanting to be seen as a "fallen genius" which chigiri understands very well </3

Chigiri surprisingly took more of a supporting role, even though this was "his" fic, huh? Haha. I wanted to write more about his own relationship with football and his dreams, but I ended up focusing more on reader, and didn't have room to elaborate his struggles </3 alas, maybe I will one day, bc I'm curious about writing his recovery process from having a torn ACL!!!!

June 17: Chengxian 💜🖤💕

childhood friends to lovers/QPPs, ace Jiang Cheng, bi & aro Wei Wuxian, modern AU

(A/N: If you're wondering about a certain other someone, he will have a wonderful, full life of his own in Suzhou in this AU but is not in this story. 💙 There are some brief mentions of offscreen ace-antagonism, not by anyone we know.)

Read on ao3

Jiang Cheng had been Wei Ying's best friend in the whole world for his entire life.

Okay. Well, not quite his entire life, but certainly since Wei Ying’s parents moved to California when he was little little, which was about as far back as Wei Ying could remember anyway. Wei Ying’s baba and Jiang Cheng’s baba had grown up in Wuhan together and been best friends when they were kids, so naturally, when Wei Ying’s family moved into the same neighborhood as the Jiangs, it made perfect sense for Wei Ying and Jiang Cheng to become best friends too.

It was Jiang Cheng who had taught Wei Ying that he didn't have to be afraid of dogs, by introducing him to Princess, Jasmine, and Lil' Love. Lil' Love lived up to her name, coming and quietly sitting in all her fluffy glory on Wei Ying’s lap every time he went over to play.

It was also Jiang Cheng who Wei Ying got drunk with for the first time. They snuck booze from the cabinet where Wei Ying’s parents kept it and laughed at the faces each other made with every shot until they stopped tasting the harsh burn, and then laughing more just because.

(Wei Ying’s mom had not laughed, not at the time, when the two teens had been sick as anything the next morning, but instead made them a gloriously greasy late breakfast and gave them lots of advice about proper hydration.

Then she told Jiang Cheng’s mom and let her scold them.)

It was Jiang Cheng who came out first, their first semester in college, when he told Wei Ying he didn't think he wanted to have sex with anyone, ever, and asked if Wei Ying thought that meant no one would ever want to date him. Wei Ying hugged him tight and told him he didn't know about everyone out there, but he knew Jiang Cheng was the best guy in the world and would be an awesome boyfriend, and he'd fight anyone who said differently.

Jiang Cheng found a group on campus for third culture LBGT kids, and Wei Ying went with him, as a supportive ally.

Which was how Wei Ying figured out that he was not just a supportive ally.

In listening to the others talk about orientation and identity and attraction and cultural expectations, Wei Ying realized that what he'd always assumed was normal—finding all kinds of people physically attractive, regardless of their gender—was actually his bisexuality. So that was kind of cool.

"So yeah, now we can be queer together!" Wei Ying said, when he excitedly shared his newfound realization with Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng snorted. "Yeah, 'all' and 'nothing,'" he joked.

It was Jiang Cheng who'd helped him practice what to say to his parents when he wanted to change his major at the end of sophomore year, and Jiang Cheng who reminded him to eat and sleep and "take a fucking break, Wei Ying," those next couple semesters when he took way too many hours so he wouldn't have to rack up a whole extra year's worth of student loans to finish his new degree plan.

It was Jiang Cheng who graduated first, on a gorgeous blue-skyed sunny day in May, and Jiang Cheng who suggested Wei Ying keep living with him at his new apartment, so he wouldn't have to try to find a one-semester lease until he finished in December.

(They renewed the lease together every time.)

Jiang Cheng ribbed him playfully each time Wei Ying met someone new, but he was always there each times things fizzled out after a few months for reasons that never quite made sense to Wei Ying.

Jiang Cheng occasionally dated too, and Wei Ying was glad he never did have to fight anybody—though he did drive Jiang Cheng to the emergency room the time he came home with split knuckles from punching a guy who, "seemed to think I didn't know my own mind about certain things."

But dating sucked for everybody, right? It wasn't like Wei Ying or Jiang Cheng were in any hurry to settle down and do the whole spouse and kids thing or whatever. Wei Ying tried to imagine it and just... couldn't, though the image of Jiang Cheng with a baby was admittedly pretty cute.

It was not Jiang Cheng, but Jiang Yanli, a few months after she proposed to her girlfriend and they started planning their wedding, who Wei Ying finally asked, "Yanli-jie, how does a person decide someone else is their person?"

Jiang Yanli looked across the room to where Jiang Cheng was showing her soon-to-be-wife how to put side spin on a billiards ball and smiled. "I think you just know," she said. "You meet someone and you get to know them, spend time together, then one day you realize you love them and want to build the rest of your life with them."

Wei Ying wrinkled his nose. "I dunno if it works that way for me. Just some random person? I've never met anyone I can imagine wanting to live with all the time. Well, besides—huh..." he cut off suddenly and darted a look over at Jiang Yanli, who just calmly sipped her drink.

"Have you ever told him that?" she asked, after a moment where Wei Ying reassessed his entire life and dating history. "I think he might appreciate hearing it."

"I... huh. Yanli-jie, you're kinda blowing my mind here," he complained.

"I gathered," she said wryly, before fixing him with a smile that made all the hair on the back of his neck stand up. "Of course, I trust," she told him, "that I do not need to explain to you of all people how very dearly I hold my didi's happiness and well-being."

He swallowed and raised three fingers in the salute he'd used ever since the summer that—hah—he and Jiang Cheng had decided as kids that they would make their own oath of brotherhood like the heroes of their favorite show. "I, Wei Ying, swear to you that I would kick my own ass before I did anything to hurt him."

Jiang Yanli leaned over to knock her shoulder against his and nodded. "That's what I thought."

Turned out, dating Jiang Cheng didn't suck at all.

It felt easy in a way Wei Ying’s past dates never had, less like trying to keep up with a game whose rules everybody knew except him, more like... well, like spending time with his best friend in the whole world, but on purpose. There was also a tension in the back of Wei Ying’s mind that seemed to have lifted, though he couldn't quite pinpoint what it was that had gone.

It was Jiang Cheng who helped him figure it out.

"I think it's that now I'm able to count on this. On us," he said, when Wei Ying brought it up. "Before, whenever you went out with someone new, I wondered if this would be the time you'd find someone to fall in love with and leave me behind."

"Aww, Chengcheng! I would never!"

Jiang Cheng huffed and rolled his eyes, but his cheeks were pink. "Well, I know that now," he said, a pleased little smile breaking through his attempts at a scowl.

"As long as you're sure—" Wei Ying began, still getting used to thinking about himself with the word "aromantic." Still a so very sure that Jiang Cheng deserved to be fallen in love with.

"Hey!" Jiang Cheng cut him off. "None of that. I know you. And I know you don't see it this way, but I personally think it's pretty damn romantic that you choose to love me, on purpose."

"I simply have exquisite taste in life partners," Wei Ying sniffed, embarassed the way he always got when Jiang Cheng declared something he'd done "romantic."

"You do," Jiang Cheng agreed. "Someone told me a long time ago I was the best guy in the world and would make an awesome boyfriend, and that he would fight anyone who said differently."

Wei Ying laughed. "That's you and your sister I've promised to kick my own ass if I ever break your heart, then. Guess I'll just have to keep you forever."

"Damn right, you will," Jiang Cheng agreed, grinning smug and happy and breathtakingly beautiful. Wei Ying leaned across the couch to give him a sweet, closed-mouth kiss—the kind Jiang Cheng had shyly admitted he actually did like, a lot—and smiled too, at how lucky he'd gotten to be with his best friend in the whole world for his entire life.

🖤💜

Today's (extremely long!) thread was inspired by this WONDERFUL art of ace Jiang Cheng and bi & aro Wei Ying! Go give Midori some love on Twitter!

I spent a nonzero amount of time googling to double check when various terms and flags came into vogue, so if you're wondering, WWX & JC were in college in the early 2000s, before the ace and aro flags were designed. By the time they get themselves figured out, they can get their cute wristbands.

...which, yes, means these dingdongs spent about a solid decade living together before realizing that was what they wanted to do forever. 😉

This also means Jiang Yanli and her unnamed wife here are getting married between when California started recognizing same-sex marriages in 2008 and the Obergefell v. Hodges ruling in 2015! THIS SHIT'S RECENT!!!

Happy Pride, thank you for reading, check out more LGBTQIA+ sweetness on my #PrideMonthSnippets Masterpost!

Starry Eyed

Neither of them had planned on going to the aquarium that day. In fact, neither of them had any real plans for the day, since neither of them were really the type to plan ahead, both more adept at going with the flow and thinking on their feet. But, as they'd been wandering around near aimlessly in this particular universe, acting more as tourists than as transdimensional voyagers in search of a way home for a wayward fallen star, Frisk had gotten distracted by the excited crowd of people steadily streaming into the large public aquarium, and her insatiable curiosity had lead her to join them, with Dream dutifully tagging along behind her.

So there they were, surrounded by giant glass tanks housing thousands of fish and other aquatic lifeforms, with Frisk's face pressed against the glass separating her from the colourful clownfish she was admiring, occasionally letting out appreciative "oooh"s and "aah"s as the clownfish darted in and out of the anemone. For his part, Dream was more than content to admire his lovely companion, an incredibly soft and fond smile on his face as he basked in the contentment and delight radiating from Frisk. It made his soul sing to see and feel a being so kind and unselfish be so happy and carefree.

"Are you enjoying yourself, Frisk?" the question was entirely unnecessary, but Dream just wanted to hear her voice her obvious joy. And as always, she did not disappoint him.

"Yes! Very much so," she finally tore her face away from the fish to turn her bright smile to her friend. "I have never seen living fish up close before. Since they live under the water, where my light cannot reach them, I have never been able to observe them like this. They are such fascinating creatures, I am certain I could look at them for centuries and not get bored!"

Dream chuckled at her enthusiasm.

"I'm glad you like them," then his smile turned wry as he asked her, only half-jokingly, "though I hope you don't actually intend to spend the next few centuries just staring at fish swimming around."

Frisk giggled and shook her head, her long bangs falling onto her closed eyelids.

"Goodness, no! For the first time in my very long life, I have the chance to witness sights which had thus far been denied to me, and actually interact with beings other than my sisters. I would not dream of wasting such an incredible opportunity," she turned to look around her at all of the many and varied exhibits, wonder filling her face. "For so long have I been stuck in the cold, silent and dark vastness of space, far from any other lifeform, no planets to warm and only my sisters to sing to, unable to do much beyond watch other, tiny beings live their impossibly short lives. I could never have imagined that I would one day be able to be amongst the very people I had only been able to look upon before."

Despite the sadness of her words and in her tone, Dream could not feel anything but her happiness at her current situation. While he was relieved that she didn't seem to dwell on a lonely past she couldn't change, he dearly hoped that she wasn't merely concealing any negative feelings from him. If she was hurting, he wanted to know and wanted to help her. He wasn't used to this uncertainty; ever since he'd eaten the last Golden Apple, he'd always been able to rely on his empathy to know how others were truly feeling, but with this Frisk, he could only feel what she chose to show. He hadn't felt this helpless since... since he was a child and his brother refused to let him know how much he was suffering, while Dream had been blissfully ignorant. He'd been so clueless back then... He refused to repeat those mistakes, he vowed deep in his heart, his golden eyelights focused on his celestial companion, the light from the tanks casting her form in an ethereal blue glow. Especially not with someone who'd become so important to him so quickly.

It wasn't that long ago that the two of them had met. He'd been wandering the Multiverse as usual, watching out for any sign of his corrupted brother, when he'd noticed that an Outertale AU which should have remained dormant and forever stuck in a limbo state, had suddenly become active and achieved its happy ending. Intrigued, he'd entered the AU and come face to face with its Frisk. Which should have been impossible, given this AU's Frisk had died in a tragic accident years ago, long before ever having the chance of crash landing in the Ebott Quadrant. So then, who was this woman? He'd approached her, trying to question her as subtly as possible, but to his astonishment, she'd already known who he was! Thankfully, she was very forthcoming with her explanation and happy to answer all of his questions.

As it turned out, this "Frisk" was actually a star, who had been observing the trapped monsters since they'd first been exiled to their asteroid belt, and had eventually taken pity on them and decided to fall from her place in the heavens, taking the place of that universe's Frisk and freeing the monsters. But with that task accomplished, she'd found herself at a loss as to where to go from there. Having fallen from the sky, she could no longer go back home. And she couldn't remain amongst her new friends and conceal her true identity forever. As it was, the Outer Sans of that AU had already begun to suspect that she was not all that she seemed. It didn't help that the darker her surroundings, the brighter the light she emitted ("I am a star, it is in my nature to shine!"). So Dream, moved by her plight and by her selflessness and her compassion, had vowed to help her find a way to return her to her home, promising to protect her until then, an offer the stranded star had gladly accepted. And they'd been adventuring together throughout the Multiverse ever since.

Somewhere along the way, Dream's feelings for her had grown from mere admiration and respect, to something... deeper. She was so endlessly fascinated by the worlds and people she'd long watched over but was now suddenly a part of, cherishing every new experience like it was a precious gift, maintaining an optimism and a positivity that rivalled even his, and always, always remaining kind and courteous to anyone and everyone she met. Also, the warmth and the light her very being constantly radiated was an unexpected but welcome boon, especially in the colder and darker parts of the Multiverse. She was far from defenceless, but as a being who'd spent the past several million years doing little besides spectating others and singing to her sisters, she was unused to action and wholly inexperienced at interacting with people, often becoming overwhelmed when at the centre of too much attention, so it fell to Dream to guide and guard her. A task that he was fiercely devoted to and which would be a lot easier if she would let him know of all of her emotions, not just the positive ones, he mused as he watched the disguised star dash to another fish tank and press her face once more against the glass.

"Hey, Frisk?" he called out to her, catching her attention as she turned to him curiously. "I have something for you."

She skipped towards him and gazed at him with giddy expectation, her head tilted to the side.

"Oh? What is it?"

"Well, I've noticed how your hair keeps falling into your eyes. And I know you don't actually need them to see, but it'd be a shame to cover your pretty face," he blushed, smiling bashfully at her, "so, here."

Dream reached out towards her face, delicately clipping her long, brown hair back and away from her surprised face, with a pair of glittery, star-shaped golden hair clips. Frisk lifted her trembling hands to gently, hesitantly trace the edges of her gifted hair accessories, before giving Dream the brightest, most radiant smile he'd ever witnessed.

"That... I... I do not know what to say. I have never received anything from anyone before. And you have been so very, very kind to me, since the moment we met. Your presence has meant more to me than mortal words can convey. And now you grant me a keepsake of my very own, to always remind me of your brilliance. Truly, I shall cherish this with every atom of my existence. Thank you, Dream. Thank you so much for this precious treasure you have given me."

And with that, Frisk opened her eyes, revealing the blazing starlight of her soul, a light that expressed what her words couldn't, as the full depth of her emotions was finally revealed to Dream. He gave her the brightest smile he could in return, his eyelights morphing into little stars as they gazed at his own little star, his entire being filled with a gentle, yet powerful warmth. It seemed she wasn't only talking about the hair clips.

___________________________________________________

For no apparent reason, I've completely lost any and all motivation to write anything, despite the next fic in my Lost Child series being something that I've been looking forward to writing since the very beginning. Is this burnout? I can't tell. Either way, I've decided to write a light-hearted little bit of fluff, featuring the two most positive characters in the Multiverse, as a form of literary comfort food.

So here's FallenStar!Frisk. As you can see, she's not technically a Frisk, but since Dream isn't technically a Sans, I don't care. She's my baby, leave me alone. She was slightly inspired by the fallen stars of the amazing film "Stardust", though she works a little differently. She's one of the sweetest OCs I've ever created, a pure cinnamon bun, cheerful, inquisitive and naïve, with a zest for life I truly envy. Both her and Dream are adorable dorks and sometimes I just wanna think and write about a cute couple being cute, okay?! Just let me indulge in some cute fluff once in a while!

I had intended for there to be way more fluff, but I needed to explain her backstory, a least some of it. I'll expound it more in future drabbles, but here's the basics. Also, since she's just a small star, with literally nothing around her for lightyears, and isn't part of any constellation or anything, she's not important or notable enough to have been given her own name, so she's borrowing the name "Frisk" until she gets one of her very own. For the curious, it'll be "Lumi", short for "illuminate". It's short and cute, like her, and sounds like "Luma", those adorable little star babies from Super Mario Galaxy. And naming a star "Star", or variations of it, is a bit too boring for me.

Anyway, hopefully this'll help reignite my passion for writing and kick my ass enough to get the next work out. And if it doesn't, expect more self-indulgent fluff with two lovable dorks.
