What is Broken (Aemond Targaryen x Pregnant Wife!Reader) SNEAK PEEK
Tumblr media
The war, the "Dance of the Dragons," as they have come to call it, is over. And yet, you are not celebrating. You have just learned that your husband, Prince Aemond, spent the last months of the war with another woman in his bed. Not only that, but his mistress is pregnant. Just like you...
Pairing: Aemond Targaryen x fem!reader (third person, no use of Y/N), side Aemond Targaryen x Alys Rivers
Warnings: Angst, pregnancy and related symptoms, infidelity, maybe smut in the future idk
Author's note: Ok well since Studious came out of me trying to power through my writer's block, hopefully this'll not only be as good, but also work as well for kicking writer's block's ass. Idk how long it's gonna be. It's based on a convo I had with the Aemond AI (made by @foxyanon ) on a day when I just didn't feel like being happy at all. Coming soon (I hope)!
What is Broken Sneak Peek
It was a lovely night in King’s Landing.
There was not a cloud to be seen for miles, and the stars were bright and twinkling. The waters of Blackwater Bay were calm and reflected the full moon as clearly as a freshly polished mirror. Even the wind seemed in a pleasant mood, carrying the sweet scent of spring on its back as it drifted lazily through the windows of the Red Keep.
Every bit of it grated on her heart like a whetstone across dull steel.
The worst night of one’s life should not be so lovely, she thought. It should be terrible. With storms and an angry sea, and perhaps even a raging fire somewhere in the distance.
If the night had been so, she would not have seen it when, only a few moments ago, a massive winged form landed in the fields just outside the city with a lowing wail, the last person she wanted to see strapped to its back. Thankfully, Aemond was far enough away that she could not make him out against the mass of his mount.
The people would cheer him in the streets as he rode toward the castle. The victorious Prince, returning after long months at war, having not only ended the war itself but avenged the deaths of his sister, brother, and his little nieces and nephews.
Daemon Targaryen and his dragon had perished above the God’s Eye, the waters below boiling when their bodies fell into its depths.
With the Rogue Prince gone, the war was swiftly over. Rhaenyra was killed, her last remaining son taken as King Aegon’s ward, and the royal host returned to King’s Landing victorious. Even Cregan Stark had agreed to halt his advance South, redirecting to Harrenhal for peace talks.
Harrenhal. A cursed place, now to be the site of great diplomacy.
Even thinking about the horrible castle was enough to turn her stomach.
A letter detailing exactly what had occurred within those melted stone halls during the war, written by the late Prince Daemon himself, sat on her vanity. A final act of retribution against his soon-to-be killer.
She knew that her husband was only returning home because of the letter.
My dear Princess,
Despite the conflict between our sides of the family, I have always thought you a rather sweet girl. Therefore, it is with the deepest regret that I must now shoulder the burden of informing you of your beloved husband’s improper conduct during this awful conflict…
A pang of nausea shot through her stomach as she remembered the words.
A mistress… some Strong bastard… called Alys, my spies tell me… every night, without fail… from the very first week… another bastard babe in the whore’s witchly womb…
There was a pounding from within her, soft thumps and kicks as the life inside her own womb became unsettled by its mother’s roiling emotions. She laid a hand over her belly, whispering soothing words she did not believe to try and calm it – and herself.
Once, she would never have believed Daemon’s stories. But then word came that, after the final battle, Aemond returned to Harrenhal for less than an hour before he again mounted Vhagar and flew for King’s Landing. It was not like Aemond to make such swift decisions. Nor did it strike her as the action of an innocent man.
When she called for Ser Willis Fell, her heart had been filled with hope that the new Lord Commander of the Kingsguard would dispel her worries. That she had only allowed herself to consider the possibility of Aemond’s infidelity because her mind was addled by her delicate condition.
“My princess, I cannot, in good conscience, tell you a lie…”
She had screamed then. And cried. And possibly thrown things at the Kingsguard, but she couldn’t entirely remember.
All she could remember was how Aemond kissed her on the day he left for Harrenhal. Deeply and passionately. Until she could feel his love for her as clearly as her own heartbeat. Then he knelt before her and placed a single, tender kiss to her belly, to where they had only just learned that their babe grew.
Less than a moon’s turn later, he had taken another woman to his bed, and seeded her, too.

The Buried Dagger 1
OKAY mortarion time ….i forgot this was the book with purple prose and i had to go back in terror to make sure I didn't accidentally buy a McNeill novel again i did not, this is thankfully (?) someone else
Tumblr media
I'm trying to figure out what about this pushes it into "Wow Edgy" rather than being genuinely compelling well actually this isn't too bad, to be honest, it's really the next bit which is that the population of ynyx (and WHAT a name) doesn't have mouths "the cold ember of his familiar, obdurate resentment" I feel like I'm being unfair to the book by feeling bathos instead of pathos but i think it's that everything is so over the top
wait what year was this written Mortarion is literally breathing in the chemicals 2019 I'm now going to suffer from the belief that the writer of this was listening to Radioactive (due to this plus some other things) and now I've got it stuck in my head
Tumblr media
i want to take this seriously but i just can't, I'm sorry no one understands meeeeeeeee owo uncomfortable memory surfaces
i will say this, the prose is quite evocative
ok so mort has a giant chip on his shoulder and is an enormous misanthrope but just about every single person who has ever been in a position of authority over him DOES just use him as a tool
Tumblr media
boy did he choose the wrong side of the war
Tumblr media
tumblr has poisoned my mind regarding "the horrors" so it feels like "every day mortarion gets emails" mortarion: hm maybe i should get rid of the daemon and also all the stuff i used to summon him and go back to normal warfare
Tumblr media Tumblr media
holy shit holy shit he really is his father's son also hey uhhh mortarion do you remember that whole slippery slope speech you gave at Nikaea about literally this exact topic
the irony is killing me you're killing me, Reaper of Men, and I'm not even a man the manreaper of….justice (????) is unisex oh yeah i forgot to bring it up but Mort calling Magnus an "arrogant braggant" fills my salty soul with glee
Tumblr media
morty continues to try out for that fantasy villain role i think i'm warming up to the prose though
im breathing in the chemicals- im breathing in the chemicals- im breathing in the chemicals-
i think swallow's cd kept skipping while he wrote this
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is the third time he's breathed in the chemicals
Tumblr media
it's totally not a ritual, honest! okay, this is a cool fight scene mortarion can be cool in a fight, as a treat
lmao
Tumblr media
yes. this is funny to me. Mortarion is just so done with this whole thing Mort: why did i get sent on this sidequest rip typhon killstealing
Tumblr media
mortarion would really like to be starring in a different genre oh no cursed idea my thought was "what genre would be funniest to put him in" which was followed by "this is our get-along harem protagonist" but it's mort and rob idk at the end of godblight they got yeeted my next thought was magical girl anime he's the dark magical girl's mascot creature he is having friendship! just hdu call him and the magical girl friends
Tumblr media
typhon plotting out how to ambush mortarion with a hug
Tumblr media
uhhhhhh
Tumblr media
typhon: yeahhhh better not bring up the Fallen honestly typhon feels like one of the most intelligent characters in the series! ….huh why weren't the dark angels at Terra
Tumblr media Tumblr media
dude and then typhon internally cackles evilly like a kids show villain everything is going according to keikaku does your brain on nurgle turn you into snidely whiplash?
Mortarion what the heck
Tumblr media
normal behaviour to go along with the poison drinking or breathing in the chemicals and breathing in the chemicals- and breathing in the okay i'll stop
literally everyone on the ship is choking but typhon that was fast owo flashback time
okay so his evil dad (the first one) sent him out with golems to fight other golem things from other evil overlords as a test of some kind this is just his entire life, huh
oh lovely like wow the only reason mortarion's alive is that he's a primarch the abuse is kind of getting to ridiculous angst-fic levels and yet the way it's written is genuinely compelling? probably because he's not actually a normal human so it is survivable and not ridiculous but it is kind of walking on that line thrown to starving dogs when he was a toddler like
this really is his entire life huh
Tumblr media
annnnd also Necare experimented on him with poison what next did necare give him a dog and then kill the dog in front of him we're starting to get into bathos here
the last bit of this scene is, yeahh
Tumblr media
a bit. on the overwrought side.
The book is tap dancing on the line which is to be honest, making me sad i really want this to be good :/
if it's going to go all the way into goofy, i want it to go all the way so i can mock it if it's going to be half hard hitting and half goofy it feels like im pulling back to punch a small child this book also unfortunately has some kind of subplot on earth with a bunch of rando characters and also, unfortunately, Garro
oh this is i guess foreshadowing for what's going to happen to the death guard? so garro's friend got hit by an evil knife and unlike guilliman he did not have plot armour
so garro is working with a bunch of other dudes who defected from the traitor legions secretly working for malcador oh, and a psyker ultramarine
oh wait psyker ultramarine met garro on calth??? what??? how did he get to calth and back what is a timeline (i should be fair and stop banging on about this since i have not actually read the relevant books. at least I assume this has to be covered in a book I didn't read)
oh yeah sure let's undress the catatonic chained up woman oh she's a sister of silence my beloved
okay so context she had her name and serial number tattooed under her collarbone so. i guess that was more important??? apparently??? they did not take off the chains they just snapped them off of the wall and basically pushed her to start walking you couldn't just. pick her up??? wouldn't that be faster?? okay this was funny malcador sends an illusion of himself across the planet
Tumblr media
I'm rolling my eyes
Tumblr media
this is the guy running the imperium
does he have nothing better to do also why give them the job in the first place if he's not going to trust them not to "creatively reinterpret" his commands
oh we're back with Teen Mort and he keeps a diary ohhh a bunch of humans are rebelling and attacking
oh it's Teen Typhon meeting Teen Mort
Tumblr media Tumblr media
psychic powers time
Tumblr media
this is not the time to get angsty also he is kind of a grimdark rapunzel huh
back in the present and apparently mort broods a lot in his room and if you interrupt him he yells at you because of course he does you're interrupting his linkin park listening bluejay note: i love linkin park so i am allowed to make this joke annnd typhon is setting up the navigators on the ship to take the blame oh he just killed them all that was fast and now they're all trapped blind in the warp and typhon is being obviously evil and according to keikaku which is visible to everyone but Mort well tbf to Mort, he's very angry at Typhon for killing the navigators so he's probably missing stuff
typhon: this lifeboat is full of leeches just trust me typhon: throws it overboard
back in the past, Mort successfully rescues the spunky teens but his dad is coming so he tells them to get out while they can and then has his disney princess song realization that it's time to stand up for himself and he'd do it all again! and face his dad! and dieeeee okay the last bit isn't disney princess …ah
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ah mort: wait, that's an option??? rip his hair is getting in his eyes i hate when that happens
okay this is a cheesy line but it's working here
Tumblr media Tumblr media
okay i made the joke before about mortarion being the kind of guy who likes to stand on cliffs/balcony edges and look down but i DIDNT KNOW IT WAS LITERALY DONT STARE INTO THE WARP YOU IDIOT
i. oh boy we get to see an emperor-mort interaction
Tumblr media
i think the emperor is….actually trying here? but what the emperor is trying to say here is not what mort took from it

YouTube Links: Tchaikovsky 4, Dvořák 9
Comments:
Tchaikovsky 4
Idk there's an explanation in my head but I jsut realy like how it soudns
I love the regal opening with the horns!! The second movement's sad and gentle theme starting in the oboe is just straight up edible... I think I've listened to the second movement of Tchaik 4 maybe more than any other movement of any symphony. MWAH! And then the third movement scherzo with pizzicato abound is SO FUN!!! And finally you round all of that off with a beautiful finale. My favorite Tchaikovsky symphony by far!!!
More propaganda for Tchaik 4: it's a representation of friendship. This piece was written in the worst year of his life, when he was married to his beard and it was torturing him, but his biggest solace during that time was his best friend Nadya. This was the first piece he truly dedicated to her (and she didn't usually allow dedications but she let him because she cared about him so much) and he also saw this piece as a sign of recovery. The fact that he dedicated this piece "to my best friend" really sells it tbh. It's so personal and intimate and playful and I love it.
Dvořák 9
I know it's gonna get nominated a hundred times, but I have listened to it four times in a row in the past week so I gotta mention it. Exquisite bliss from first to last note.
it slays <3
When I heard the first movement for the first time, I was GRINNING LIKE AN IDIOT because of how much I loved it. LIKE THIS IS SO YUMMY (link opens to the timestamp)
it's got everything. the interplay between minor and major. themes from the early movements that come back in the finale. the most iconic english horn solo in all of classical music. dvorak wrote it while traveling across the US and was directly inspired not only by his native czech/bohemian soundscapes but the musical languages he heard from black and native americans. there's a tuba part but it only plays for like five measures. fantastic orchestrations, making full use of all the different colors of the orchestra. the start of the finale sounds kinda like jaws. it is physically impossible for me to feel upset while i'm listening to it it's the first symphony i ever played in orchestra and i'm so normal about it that i want to get that EH solo tattooed on my art and also i wrote a paper about it for a university music history class and i got an A on it so it should definitely win the bracket or i'll cry

Wow, I'm mad at myself for being late to the favorite fic subject coming up /j
Personally, I'm a huge sucker for cya and have itysg as a second(however, if we decide to count your other fics then... itysg would be third while your smile makes me smile would be second). I think it's the amount of world building that makes it so interesting for me along with the fact that it takes place before the archon war. Like, there hardly passes a day where cya doesn't just... scoot right over into my thoughts making it kinda hard to reread cause it know it so well </3.
I am sad to say that I haven't checked out BitA yet. When I first saw it while looking for some other fic of yours to read, I didn't really like apocalypse stories much. I might check it out though cause I'm a lot more open to those kinds of stories now. I also remember starting every good intention, but I don't remember why I stopped... I think I had to get off my phone for a bit and just... forgot to continue? Idk I really should check those two...
You really get me Sprinkles- those murder mystery fics are so good! I remember reading one of genshin that was also mixed with a time loop and I just ate it up-(it was sadly discontinued and then deleted from ao3, but not before I managed to download it for future offline reading-) I'm honestly interested in those wriolette ones you mentionned, may I have a few recs if you don't mind? I need more wriolette in my life.
Tumblr media
i do in fact have some wriolette murder mystery / cop mystery recs
A Match Made in France by oooohscar - not a murder mystery per se but it does contain mystery investigations. it's basically furina trying to matchmake neuvillette and wriothesley and she quickly discovers they work well as investigation partners? and so she starts trying to get them to investigate things together, but then shit gets out of hand. it's so fucking good and so fucking funny. like it's pre-reveal furina but i can forgive the mild ooc and- y'know, furina portrayal pre-trauma-reveal (?) just because it's so well written and hilarious (and also she's not portrayed entirely as a brat, i find her more absurdly histrionic than anything). also it's not just furina pov, it switches between all of them. it's incomplete but updating, and absolutely worth a read
The Gambler's Debt by Marsrevale - much more serious than the one above, this one is a murder mystery through and through. the mystery is still only starting, so it probably has a long way to go, but i'm patient so i'll keep up. it's basically neuvillette and clorinde going to investigate a series of murders in the fortress of meropide (this is a sort of modern au so meropide is a gambling house / hotel i think) and wriothesley is the main suspect, but there's also stuff going on between neuvillette and wriothesley bc they knew each other long ago but only wriothesley recognizes him. idk how else to describe it, it's really intriguing so far, i hope the mystery pans out nicely
Hold my hand, never let me go by Jinnmi - also a proper murder mystery, this one is about what is essentially a branch of fontaine's police force for criminal investigation led by wriothesley and the many interconected cases they have to solve. neuvillette is sent as a consultant to keep an eye on them, but ends up basically joining the team as they all try to solve a big case that seems to threaten the country whole and is also somehow connected to wriothesley's past. this one is very good, the murders might be a bit too gruesome for sensitive people? but still, really nice. i love the unsettling vibe of whatever the one behind this all is planning, the suspense is also really good. still updating and i rush to it every time a new chapter comes out, it had me in a chokehold when i first found it.
hope those sound interesting!

Finally decided to send in a request for the black sheep event! My request contains, Draconia!Name and Riddle sharing the same desk for separate classes (ex. Draconia!Name first period, Riddle second) ,, with - Draconia!Name writing letters and leaving it at the shared desk for Riddle to pick up? Romantic if you could <3 and you can get very creative with it !!
passing notes || black sheep expansion pack
masterlist characters: riddle genre: fluff contains: not a whole lot of draconia!(name)? idk i just really liked the idea :), riddle pov summary: when a note left behind after a class turns into something more. notes: i had a lot of fun writing this :DD event: [black sheep expansion pack]
Tumblr media
it all started with a simple note. one most likely left behind in a rush. riddle, in hindsight, was quite glad he found it. he would leave it behind with two other notes accompanying it.
one was a simple "do not touch unless first period", a warning to the rest of the students who sat in that seat.
the second was a correction to the initial note, correcting a certain aspect of the subject the writer had gotten wrong in theirs. riddle was satisfied with himself, especially if the recipient was to be a member of heartslabyul.
much to his surprise, it wasn't.
Tumblr media
the next day, another note was left behind.
thank you! i passed my quiz because of you!
riddle didn't know what compelled him to answer this new note. normally, he would just nod in satisfaction at the thought of helping someone better their knowledge on his best subject, but that wasn't the case this time. something told him, urged him, to write back.
no need for thanks, was all he wrote, but it seemed to suffice. the next day, he was met with another note. and then he responded again. and then another note was left. and he responded again. and again. and again, and again, and again.
Tumblr media
so that's how he ended up where he was now, continuing to exchange notes with a certain person that sat in his same seat just a single period before him.
how was your day, riddle?
the same as it always is. should he change how he writes? cater seemed to agree when he told the two third years about his new "friend".
that's good! i'm glad to hear it :} they always scribbled a cute smile beside their message, little fangs poking out from the mouth of their drawing. when is your next unbirthday party? i'd love to help one day!
"how sweet," riddle hummed to himself at the latest note. without another thought, he turned to his binder of papers and began flipping through them, letting out a soft "a-ha!" when he pulls out one of the many schedules he had laid out for his dorm.
the next one should be in the next three days. or, rather, two if you receive this invitation during your first period, was what he had written, quietly admonishing himself under his breath.
"is this too formal? should i rewrite it...?" before he could stick to a decision, his teacher ushered him and the other students out of the room, huffing on about the next period he was about to tend to.
oh well, riddle simply sighed, tucking his binder under his arm.
Tumblr media
so the next unbirthday party is in two days, right? i'll try to make it! hopefully dorm leader draconia won't mind... i can't wait to see you in person!
riddle stifled a laugh, scooping the little note into his hands and tucking it away into his notebook.
i look forward to having you over, was what riddle left behind on the desk, a little heart scribbled in the corner only to be hurriedly erased a few moments later.
Tumblr media
it's tomorrow~ dorm leader draconia said i was able to go, can you believe it? i'll see you soon riddle <3, riddle nearly choked on his own spit as his eyes scanned over the heart. and yes, i saw the little heart you wrote on the last note. don't be afraid to keep it there next time, okay?
"hnmg..." riddle let out a sound that he didn't even know he was capable of making.
i'm glad to hear that, was all riddle managed to write, his hand shaking as he wrote the last word. he felt his heart pound in his chest as his eyes continued to dart between his notes and the special note from his friend. yes, his “friend”. just his friend.
(of course, he only tried to convince himself of this because of the lingering influence ms. rosehearts his mother had on him.)
regardless, he could not wait for the day to finally end.
Tumblr media
"you're restless," trey hummed in amusement, glancing over at riddle. "something's on your mind, huh?"
"don't even start, trey," riddle grumbled, earning a laugh from his vice dorm leader. and although riddle's words were sharp and snippy, he knew trey wasn't wrong.
"all hail our leader, the red sovereign himself... housewarden riddle!"
"we salute you, housewarden riddle!" despite his dorm members calling his name, riddle could only scan over the crowd in search of a not-so-familiar face.
see, he was familiar with all of his members and any guests that would be coming. all except the one he wanted to see. he knew their name and their dorm but not what they looked like.
and just when he thought they were not there, his eyes zeroed in on the one face he had never seen. a bright smile was plastered on their face and their horns were decorated with little red and white roses.
for the first time during the unbirthday party ritual's history (in riddle's era, at least), the dorm leader paused in his tracks. riddle couldn't help but stare in awe, finally matching a face with the little notes left behind on his desk. they offered a light grin, their little fangs barely peeking out from their lips.
"riddle?" trey suddenly called out, having paused a few steps in front of the redhead. despite the confused tone in his voice, the grin he shot at riddle was enough for the dorm leader to realize how much trey really knew.
"r-right..." riddle coughed into his fist, hurrying up to trey's side. the vice dorm leader merely chuckled before nodding, continuing to walk towards the table.
the ritual continued the way it always did, with riddle inspecting the decorations and embellishments and nodding in satisfaction as it was up to standard. when he announces the start of the tea party, he finds himself quickly ushering the unfamiliar face in the crowd towards him.
and as they hurry to his side, little red and white rose petals falling from their horns, riddle couldn't help but clutch the note in his pocket to ease the anxiety roaring in his heart.
allow me to court be mine? <3

July 16th, One day before Yin's Wedding.
Tumblr media
After sailing the boat for a while, Juyeon told Yin to stop by the shore near the back of the island. He told her that the four of them were going to have a small picnic.
Juyeon was releasing the anchor, Hyunjae was gathering what they brought, and.. Younghoon was still napping… Yin was lucky enough to lose rock paper scissors and be the one to wake him up.
“younghoon..? we're going to leave the boat now”
“Huh? Oh this wasn't a dream..” Younghoon sighs as he sits up and rubs his eyes slightly. With a tired smile he stands up and looks around, “Oh Yin, where's Juyeon and Hyunjae?”
“already off the boat, come on let's go! you also have to tell me how you met my mom”
“Oh do I?” Younghoon raises an eyebrow as the two of them walk over to get off the boat. “i've already asked hyunjae and juyeon, now i need to hear your story”
As the two meet up with Juyeon and Hyunjae on the beach, they find a spot on a hill with a flat area. Younghoon immediately going to lean on the tree that shades the area.
“Did Yin really ask you guys on how you met Y/n too?”
The other two men looked at each other before nodding, “I mean yeah, it's been years since I talked about y/n so why not” Hyunjae leans forward torwards Younghoon as he talks, “Are we going to get a live retelling on how you met Y/n??”
“Uhm…”
Tumblr media
july 15th, 2002
no way…..
TRAVEL DIARY! DO YOU REMEMBER THAT EXTRA HANDSOME BOY AT THE AIRPORT???
WELL HES HERE!!!! i did not know that my luck would be this good during this trip. three men. call me what you want but i am living the dream right now
also.. you know what they say, the third time's the charm ;) ok but in terms of when i saw them would that mean juyeon’s the third man or if i actually talk to them. and i will talk to the cutie by the way, just want to make it clear that this time i will make a move on him.
i am actually a bit nervous this time it is so weird, ew usually im not so hesitant like this i should just do what y/n does and be y/n
(oh god he has me talking in third person)
good luck y/n you got this!!
Tumblr media
July 16th, One day before Yin's Wedding.
Tumblr media
“Fine. But I'm not telling details-”
“what?!? but they're the best part. at least leave some details in. like what my mom was wearing, how pretty you thought she was, when did you two-”
Younghoon waves his hand around at Yin. Juyeon and Hyunjae are already starting to eat while waiting for the story.
“Alright alright, I'll leave some details in, I guess.. and don't expect much. I'm not a storyteller”
“You will be” Juyeon said before shoving a spoonful of food in his mouth.
“okayyy come on, come on, let's hear it!” yin exclaimed as she got ready to listen intently to younghoon.
“Calm down, Yin. I'll get to it. I think I'll need to give some background first. It was around twenty years ago, and I was on vacation with my parents and their best friends, plus their kids too. I first saw Y/n at the airport, I think?”
“wait does that mean you were the first one?”
“First one to talk to her.. no. but yes first one to see her”
Hyunjae gulps down his food loudly, “I think I was the first one to talk to your mom. Early June was when I met her”
“July 6th for me.”
“Uhm yesterday day, July 15th..”
“happy anniversary!!” the three men all looked at yin with different emotions on their face. “okay sorry wrong joke my bad. you can continue with your story now” yin takes a sip of her water to ignore the stares.
“Alright uh, so yeah, I didn't notice Y/n at first because I was making sure I had everything. But when I did look up and made eye contact with her, I had gotten so shy. I think I had a small blush on my face” Younghoon covers his face in slight embarrassment at the way the three others are listening to him.
“Now, it's a month later, and my parents just told me I'm going to marry a childhood friend and so-”
“Woah woah woah, you're going to just skip over that?? What do you- How did- WHAT”
Juyeon's jaw dropped as he put down his plate for dramatics and put his hands out, reaching for the air.
“Oh right uh, at a dinner with my family and her's, our parents said that.. we were going to get married in a month…”
“What.”
“The.”
“flip.”
“Yeah… my exact reaction, well almost. I was the only one who didn't know, so I ran away. Sneaked on a boat and ended up here on this island. Met Y/n at the hotel from earlier, and she clinged onto me, and we went out danced on the beach, kissed on the beach, and… dot dot dot.”
yin tilted her head in confusion and looked at the other two men who were nodding their heads with a slight smile, “dot dot dot? what does that mean?”
Hyunjae and Juyeon put their hands out for a high five to Younghoon while he replied to Yin, “It's something from our time, I'm not sure if you know about it.”
“but you're saying dot dot dot, how can i not know when it's just dots?”
The three of them start to stand up and stretch as they jokingly ignore Yin, “Alright let's pack up” Juyeon looks at a nonexistent watch on his wrist, “Oh yeah look at the time Yin, your wedding is tomorrow remember!”
“wait but-”
Tumblr media
july 17th, 2002
what a night.
younghoon is such a dream. literally. men like him are only seen in my dreams, big sighs ahhhh.
with him, i feel like nothing can go wrong.
like first of all, he's so respectful, offered to pay when yin could literally give it to us for free, always asked me first, and has a fiance.
he's getting married.
younghoon is getting married and not to me.
y/n.. you are so stupid. there always has to be something going wrong in the end, right? just why..?
Tumblr media
synopsis = a day before her wedding day, Yin decides to find her father so he can walk her down the isle, the problem? There's three candidates: Lee Juyeon, Kim Younghoon, and Lee Hyunjae.

LITERALLY every single DR I have
I have not completed the scripts for most of them 😭😭
KEYS: 💭 = Non-Media / Not from a book, movie, or show DR
Sorry if the grammar is bad, I’m too lazy to look over this post 😭😭
Magical Girl DR 💭
heavily inspired by Precure bcccc it’s cute. Who doesn’t want to fight enemies with frilly dresses?
Regular School DR 💭
School but like filled with drama, I have some things written out 😭😭 it’s super 2015 Wattpad-y so idk if I’m gonna talk abt it
Fantasy Minecraft YouTuber DR 💭
I KNOW WHAT YOURE THINKING… I DO NOTTTT LIKE ANY MINECRAFT YOUTUBER OTHER THAN LDSHADOWLADY AND SNIFFERFISH. I MEAN THAT LITERALLY. don’t misunderstand, please and thank you 🫶
Dreamscape Station DR 💭
I had a vision, but I’ve yet to work on this script enough for me to post a lot about it 😞 I did post about it tho on my TikTok account! Essentially it’s like the backrooms but cute, ethereal, not dangerous (kinda), and full of shifters from other realities. You take a train to different parts of ‘Dreamscape’ and explore! I made tickets for this DR too 😭😭
K-Pop Stan Life DR 💭
Self explanatory. I’m gonna be a fansite, buy as many albums as I could possibly buy, and trade cards with ppl online + provide lots of freebies!
J-Pop Idol DR (💭 kinda)
This was a requested script from someone on my request form (I’ve just realized I didn’t link my request form here on tumblr… it should be up before anyone’s read this). I ended actually using this script for my love live DR cuz my old love live scripts were the ugliest thing on the planet
Obsidian Bride DR
Obsidian Bride is a manhwa that’s literally Singles Inferno but in an isekai otome manhwa world + everyone’s based off a gem, your gem is chosen based on your life and personality!
MHA DR
I was influenced to shift here bc of Priicklleshifts on TikTok 😭😭😭. I don’t really like the actual anime that much, but it seems like a really fun place to shift to! The script for this DR is 100% complete (I haven’t added anything to it for months now)
Wind Breaker DR
Wind Breaker’s a bike racing manhwa that you can read for free on Webtoon. Idk who I’m gonna date, but I literally CANNOT date Jay bc he reminds me of my brother 😭😭
Made of Stardust DR
I’m so mad that nobody’s shifting here 😭 if you like fantasy romance books, stars, enemies to lovers, magical forests, angst, etherealism, I bet your ass would want to shift here. I plan to be Kalisa, and so far I don’t want to change the plot
Futuristic K-Pop DR 💭
Also self explanatory. I do have a filled version of this DR up if anyone wants to use it (It’s not in my current format tho cuz the script is old asf😭). I scripted in a contestant show where the contestants would come from different planets (Mars, Earth, and Kepler smth… I don’t remember the numbers)
Better CR DR 💭
The place I’ll probably be permashifting to
Hallows Ball DR 💭
Okay so I started this script like 2 years ago or smth and I was supposed to finish it before Halloween (it’s a masquerade ball DR but with a twist) and I just haven’t finished it yet 😭 let’s hope I finish it this year
How to Get my Husband on my Side DR
Another manhwa DR!
TGCF DR
I bought the first book to read bc I absolutely loved the anime 😭😭 I haven’t read more than like 30 pgs… I just really don’t like it when books are in third person 😭😭
Fantasy Kpop DR 💭
I completely forgot about this DR until I went through my TikTok account to see how ugly my themes were 😭😭 Basically this DR is set in a fantasy world, each of the kpop groups I scripted in are of different species (fae, vampires, elves, etc…) and I’ve gotta gather certain groups to help me find artifacts in every single kingdom so that magic doesn’t disappear (so corny omfggg…)
Hogwarts DR
I only wanted to shift here bc everyone else wanted to 😭😭
Old Kpop DR 💭
Not gonna shift here anymore, but the script is complete 😭😭 I remade it for my Kpop contestant DR
Kpop Contestant DR 💭
Self explanatory, there’s filled and non filled versions on my linktree
My Own Kpop Group DR 💭
This script happens in the same reality as my Kpop contestant one, this is this group I’ll be in once my contestant group disbands. My own Kpop group is time and mythology themed!
Laurier Academy DR 💭
An actual idol school DR, you learn how to be a Kpop idol + a bunch of other stuff. I made a whole school website for this DR and there’s a four versions of this script:
Filled Co-Ed
Empty Co-Ed
Filled Girls Only
Empty Girls Only
(Co-ed is all genders in one school)
Elite School DR 💭
Idk why anyone uses this script bc not only is it ugly but the formatting is 😨😨 this was my first script that I posted to TikTok, and it has all the characters from my other DRs as students. Idk why, but I made everyone has an animal form. Mines a cat (kinda boring but I wanna be able to sneak around 😭)
Dragon Rider Academy (Aethergarde Academy DR) 💭
There’s also a filled version of this script in my linktree, don’t recommend it tho cuz it’s also poorly formatted and ugly. I think this was the second script I posted on my TikTok account
Shifting Library DR (Realmwalker Library) 💭
It’s a shifting library but better! All the books here are written by shifters. There’s different sections for world building, storytimes, quizzes, fanfics (of other ppls DRs), tips & methods, nsfw storytimes (adults only plz), philosophy related to shifting, and discussions about shifting (idk why I didn’t just merge discussions with philosophy..). Don’t be surprised if some or most of the shifters here aren’t human! I scripted that all non malevont beings that shift can come here; this does also mean that the books are automatically translated into the language you understand best. Oh and the authors aren’t always going to be human.
Love and Deepspace DR
My script for this one is pretty much complete, but I really want to know more about MC’s evol before shifting here 😭
Mental Health DR
I won’t talk about this DR at all on TikTok or on here (sorry) bc it’s super personal and I don’t want to seem like a damn baby 😭😭. I’m actually kind of scared of men irl, plus I didn’t have the best high school experience in my DR. My goal with this DR is to practice talking to people and get over my fear of men. This DR is my first ever DR; my original intent with shifting is to help get over my fear of men + people in general, especially taller people
Waiting Room
My waiting room is essentially an isekai manhwa mansion 😭😭 I scripted that there’s a serving cart with one of those 3 tiered afternoon snack things + milk tea, the milk tea has special properties that calm me down immediately when I drink it. My goal is to use the smell of the tea to know that I’ve shifted, and to drink the tea so I don’t fuck myself over and shift back to my OR 😭😭

12 and 17 for Displaced. It's literally my favorite book and I read it at least twice a year.
I'm having some trouble remembering the process for that one. 😅
12: Was there a scene you wished you could have included? Why didn’t it fit in?
At one point (I started thinking about it during Displaced and kept thinking about it during How to Build a Bridge), I wanted to have a smutty scene but with more research notes, but written by Link. And it would be notes that Zelda was making him write, "to get his point of view." And he would be writing mostly in the second person like, "You told me to write this down, so I am!" He kept writing down what he was thinking, there'd be an ellipse, then coming back to say, "You just said we can't do that right now."
I still think this idea is very funny and is very in character. However, that's just writing smut in the second person, and I got very bashful about it. I kept saying, "IDK, this is very weird and out of nowhere," and jenseits-der-sterne was like, "Well, Zelda’s sex diary thing was out of nowhere, so you should go for it!" And I couldn't get over it, so I didn't include it.
17: What was the hardest scene to write?
I remember there were parts that were hard to write for outside reasons.
The third chapter was hard because the reception for the first two chapters on ff.net was so bad. It made me not want to post more. About a year later, I was like "No! I've a story in my soul!" moved it to AO3, and kept going.
Also, there was a chapter in the Zora region where I finished the chapter, selected the text, meant to hit control c to copy it into AO3, accidentally hit "c", replaced over 2,000 words with the letter "c", and the undo button didn't work. Super demoralizing.

Hi!
Idk if this sent the first time, the wifi i’m using is really bad, but anyway…
I’m not sure if you’ve already done this, but I was wondering if you had any recommendations on books about Elvis? I’ve already read Last Train To Memphis but that’s just about the only one.
I’m a relatively new fan, but he’s so magnetic and interesting — I’d love to learn more about him 🫠🫠
Thank you!! xx
Hi there! So, it's really a case of what you're looking for, because there are lots of different entries into the world of Elvis. Heads up, first of all: Everyone and their elderly third cousin twice removed has written a book about Elvis. They all put themselves at the centre of Elvis' life and decisions to some degree or another. They all talk about his excesses and problems as if they were not just as heavily involved and partaking just as much. Some will quote conversations with Elvis as if they are verbatim. A healthy dose of cynicism is needed throughout. Also, don't bother reading anything by The Stanleys. This is my golden rule. So, I assume you're going to read Careless Love by Peter Guralnick, but I'll recommend it anyway. It's a hard read towards the end, and Guralnick's own feelings kind of color things in contrast with the more 'objective' Last Train. Still, I consider it a must read. If you're looking for more of an overview using more than one voice, I'd recommend Elvis and The Memphis Mafia by Alanna Nash with Billy Smith, Marty Lacker and Lamar Fike. They tell a good story, they are 'characters' in their own right, and they give you a strong idea of the vibe around Elvis. Disclaimer: facts are sometimes less important than a good yarn. Like I said, most of his friends wrote about him at least once. Some are more entertaining and readable than others. Lots of people like Joe Esposito's books, such as Good Rockin' Tonight and Elvis- Straight Up, because he comes across as personable and more respectful. Just remember that he was reporting back to The Colonel and good friends with Priscilla, Lisa and EPE. Same with longtime EPE employee Jerry Schilling's Me and Guy Named Elvis, but I like that he was quite different from the rest of the Memphis Mafia and this colours his stories. I really enjoyed Larry Geller's If I Can Dream. While the man loves the sound of his own voice, he also gives an insight into Elvis' struggles in the mid-60s with losing touch with himself and the life he is living. He saw Elvis in a way that most of the other guys couldn't comprehend because of their backgrounds maybe. Some of his stories also have a weird surreal truly Elvis quality. To get a glimpse into Elvis's upbringing and strongest relationship, Elvis and Gladys by Elaine Dundy is a good one. He makes much more sense when you feel you understand where he came from, at least to me. In terms of the women, Linda Thompson's A Little Thing Called Life is a fun read. She probably got to a more intimate insight into Elvis as a famous boyfriend than any of the other women, including Priscilla, in my opinion. She knows how to spin a tale too. June Juanico's Elvis: In the Twilight of Memory is a swoonworthy dream. She is a great writer, and got to sample some pre-superstar boyfriend Elvis. I also enjoyed Joyce Bova's Don't Ask Forever. It gives a view of how it must have been to be one of his side-chicks- Elvis had a new phone line installed in her apartment just for him and would try and get her to skip work (At Capitol Hill!) because her work was less important than his! If you're interested in any of Elvis's work, I highly, devotedly recommend Ernst Jorgensen's Elvis: A Life in Music. This man is the one who should get all the credit for Elvis's legacy continuing so far. Forget EPE, RCA, Sony, all of them. He is the supreme Elvis historian, has scoured and catalogued the vaults for all Elvis' recorded material. He is involved with the FTD label, which rescued and released all the outtakes, alternate versions, studio banter, concert soundboard recordings, everything. He is my hero. I think everyone has a different version of Elvis that they love, so if anyone else has any other recommendations, please chime in! And remember, we don't read a Stanley. Thank you for reaching out. Let me know what you end up reading next, I love a book discussion!

2, 9, 15 for end of year asks?
okay IM DOING IT !!! ugh I’m so sorry I always answer these so late and so LONG but here I am. let’s do this…
2. favorite fic of the year
oh this is HARD I read such good fic this year it’s not fair. WAIT. are we talking a fic I’ve written or a fic I’ve read? I’m doing both to be safe. for both fandoms TWICE! here we go…
gravity falls
written? midnight’s call, of course, as well as the beginnings of its sequel. it’s just so detectable and whumpish and ‘ford wants/should be the main character here but honestly he isnt’ energy that it’s not funny. it’s also the longest wip that I’ve completed thus far (though it’s looking to be easily surpassed) AND it was my first wip ever AND one of the first fics I put on ao3 at all! so! it’s pretty special to me!! :))
as for read, god you can’t make me choose. what had me squealing the most…. it’s been a while and yet there are some that immediately come to mind. do I have to pick?? UHHHHH I’ll have to go between Another World, Another Time by jikanet_tanaka and Interproximal Gradations by callipraxia, which is the third part of the For Want Of A Jailbreak series (sorry, I really couldn’t choose mshdhsh) they both have similar vibes yet such different plots that I can’t help but group them in my head sometimes but they are ALSO some of the most high-quality heartbreaking emotionally investing fiction I’ve ingested on this mortal coil. like BRO. it’s been like six months since I’ve read both and I can still remember certain scenes and the plot and other things I loved so CLEARLY. for example: in another world, they hit ford over the head a LOT. like I can remember three individual times lmao, and two of them were by the same person! the first was entering the strange dimension in the beginning to jumpstart the plot, the second was overexertion/being wacked by a blinded ex-jheselbraum disciple after escaping an attempted to be built PORTAL ROOM in a high tech bill-esque fortress, and the third was during an unsuccessful raid for parts for a resistance the people of the dimension he and the pines have ended up by the same ex-disciple. does that make sense? possibly not! but don’t you want to read to find out? ;) /lh
good omens
written? it would’ve been do you remember hanging up the stars had it been completed by now (which is Impossible lmao) so I’m gonna have to with an angel who goes along with heaven, because 1) it’s my favorite era *medieval/wessex 537* 2) it’s heavy crowley whump 3) I wrote it over two months ago and I can still read it without wanting to die. like I see the flaws, but they are easily overlooked because CROWLEY WHUMP!!!!! I WROTE THAT!!! it’s the ultimate ‘writing what I want to read’ assortment. augh
read? well I haven’t actually gotten to the life-changing longfic on par with the gf fic. I have them marked for later, definitely, but I haven’t read anything past 30k in this fandom yet so I suspect there’s more earth shattering shit out there. atm, though, Ithink I’m going with The Ark by rfsmiley. holy fuck, where do I begin. I have a love/hate relationship with dystopia—love because we get to think about the inevitability of failure, death, and humanity degraded down to pure survival and the things that make us human are a luxury, and hate because we have to think about the inevitability of failure, death, and humanity degraded down to pure survival and the things that make us human are a luxury. it’s just so bleak yet colorful at the same time. media like tlou is triple s tier. so reading a fic like that… safe to say it broke me. they made it to the stars!!!! they cherish every orange slice! every book! they still love each other!! they knew this was gonna happen and they stuck around!!! UGH!!!!! AND THE FACT THE THING’S CALLED THE FUCKINGGGGG ARK. THE ARK. IRONY. IRONY. JAIL FOR AUTHOR RFSMILEY! JAIL FOR A THOUSAND YEARS!
9. favorite creator of the year
okay back to something more soft. first off; I can’t pick. firstly bc idk if it means a fan artist or writer or professional people like filmmakers and show runners. secondly bc there are so many ! how could I pick! also I’d feel back for picking one person over another thats just my brain is wired, and for that I apologize. so moving on ! ty for asking though <3
15. favorite headcanon of the year
god how do you PICK that!!!! thinking…….. AGAIN, it’s between ‘ford is autistic’ and (i’m sorry if this small and silly) ‘aziraphale and crowley like holding hands’ (though that’s fucking canon, but I’m headcanoning it). just. they’re both so important to me. ford is me and aziraphale and crowley love each other. ugh. UGH. thanks for the ask dude, and I’m gonna go jump into a hole now ✨

What are your thoughts about Susannah’s “to belly husband” letter in the third book? I love that she wrote it to Conrad but also that letter makes me so sad because when I read the book i felt like so many of the characters especially Jeremiah used it against Conrad… and like Conrad didn’t force his mom to write that? I know it’s just cause Jeremiah was once again mad realizing that everyone thought it should be Conrad with belly and he was taking out his anger on Conrad but iirc it just felt that added to everyone thinking Conrad was the devil and the reason their wedding ended but I mean while it was because conrad was still on belly’s heart that’s NOT Conrad’s fault he gave up belly and accepted her rejection at his confession on the beach… like idk it just makes me mad how everyone painted conrad as the devil in the books and even a letter supporting him that he had no control over was used against him 😭
Okay I totally agree with you. I feel like I need to take a moment to explain the Susannah letters at the end of book 3 because it seems like people are confused about the letter. It wasn't a letter to Belly's husband (and maybe this actually makes it worse), Susannah wrote letters for all of the kids on their wedding days (probably Steven too!) and we get to read Belly's in the epilogue. The letter that Laurel gave to Jeremiah was supposed to be Jere's wedding day letter from Susannah, I think they say that his name is written on the envelope. But the actual letter inside the envelope was Conrad's wedding day letter. I did feel bad for Jeremiah in that moment because it must have felt awful on top of everything else, but the way he took it out on Conrad was not fair to me at all. Conrad didn't put the letter in the envelope, he didn't even know what it said. Susannah probably mixed them up by accident when she was putting them in the envelopes (or Laurel did it on purpose). Either way, the letter wasn't Conrad's fault. I kind of loved that Susannah wrote that she had only ever seen Conrad in love once and it was with Belly.
I think it was important that Jeremiah got Conrad's letter by mistake because it's what finally woke him up and made him realize that he was making mistake and had been wearing blinders the whole time. I always felt that Jeremiah convinced himself that Conrad was horrible and that Conrad didn't really love Belly, not the way Belly loved Conrad and I believe that's how Jeremiah justified getting in between them. But when he read the letter and his mom said Conrad was in love with Belly, Jeremiah couldn't ignore it anymore, he finally accepted that Conrad wasn't an evil person and that Conrad and Belly really were in love in a way that Jere and Belly were never going to be. I always felt like Jeremiah was the only one who really held it against Conrad. I think maybe Steven was upset that both brothers had his sister upset, and Belly was upset with Conrad but to me it wasn't really about Conrad at the very end when Belly says it didn't rain and they didn't get married. Conrad was a big part of it, but Belly and Jeremiah realized together, finally, that they weren't really good together and weren't ready to be married. The letters really do make it sound like Conrad was kind of exiled, but it was really only Belly who exiled him (he talks about dinners with Laurel, Steven, Jere and Adam and how they're all reconciling). I think Belly just needed space away from both brothers for a while (it's kinda implied to me that she didn't talk to Jere for a while although she reconciled with him first). I think she just needed that space to think things over and grow into herself and see who she really was without being defined by everyone else. And it seemed like Conrad understood that too, and he wanted her to have that time and space, which is why he waited so long before writing her any letters (and he chose such nice way to reach out to her that put the least amount of pressure on each of them).
It does make me so sad that Conrad spent so much time and effort trying to be supportive of the wedding, getting Laurel on board for Belly, helping plan the wedding, agreeing to be the best man and then going to get Jeremiah for Belly so she can still be happy and everyone still blames Conrad for "ruining" the wedding. And it wasn't even his fault at all, or even really fully about him confessing his feelings- it was Belly and Jere finally admitting that they weren't good together and they weren't truly in love. They finally left delulu land for lack of a better word. At the end of the day Jere and Belly weren't it for each other, they weren't truly, deeply in love and they didn't give each other fireworks, they weren't a forever relationship (and everybody knew the whole time. that's why every single person is against the wedding to begin with). Even if Conrad didn't confess, they still might have called off the wedding or eventually got divorced. I hate how everyone makes it about Conrad when it wasn't just him that was stopping the wedding. Belly herself was not fully confident or all in on the idea for a lot of the 3rd book, she kept questioning the decision but she went along with the whole thing for Jeremiah.
basically, Jeremiah had a right to be upset but so did Belly and so did Conrad. And it was partly Conrad and the fact that Belly never stopped loving him, but i don't think it's fair to blame that on him or to blame the whole called off wedding on him.

ed edd n eddy alphabet soup part ii anyone?
may be headed in the direction of a fic me thinks idk i'm just at a point where my brain is experiencing a creative outpouring in the form of ed edd n eddy content
[eddeddy specific i guess. let's see]
cw for substances, implied (but up to interpretation) traumatic events, child abuse/domestic violence mention, double d enjoying calculus
[also ... i may have mentioned this previously somewhere but i'm currently almost 2 years clean from dxm abuse & all drugs so PLEASE know that interactions with substances are not something that should be romanticized or promoted, i'm not trying to do that i just also have been in high school and as a teenager substances are something that exist]
[for purposes of me being me this story features the three ed's as seniors in high school, as well as rolf, kevin, and nazz. johnny & may kanker are juniors in high school, sarah & jimmy are sophomores, and eldest kankers have graduated hs]
[eddy's brother is in the can and staying there cuz i'm not about to deal with his ass sorry]
picking up from double d's brain alphabet soup...
- beginning
but that wasn't productive ruminating for the current task at hand, no.
no, the focus of his current endeavor, as he had been sorely forcing his near non-existent attention span back too, was familiarizing himself with the revision outline for the first calculus ii quiz of his last year of high school.
calculus had been relatively simple, the theoretical aspect of geometry soothingly absent from this branch of arithmetic, with many of the classic formula/solve/answer questions (however tedious the problems may be.) double d enjoyed problems with direct, proven answers, especially ones that would simply be labeled as correct or incorrect. knowing that without a doubt there was a proven, logical, factual answer for a problem was motivating and provided structure.
although he still received excellent markings in his literature classes, and had become especially gifted in theoretical analysis and research investigation, the concept of language left him feeling rather uncomfortable. while there were specific outlines, literary devices, and general frame of composition to guide him, a compelling and well-written piece of writing was largely subjective. personal opinions of the audience were essential to the response of the piece, and therefore effective criticism stemmed often from personal preference rather than execution.
ed, a third of double d’s nearly life-long trio of best friends, had surprisingly excelled in the areas of creative writing and storytelling in the past few years. while his spelling and grammar needed (and likely would always need) some work, his ability to reveal emotion in his writing was pleasantly shocking and impressive to both edd and eddy. double d had scanned ed’s last few impromptu creative writing assignments, and had beamed with pride at each one, offering only some minor suggestions each time that the other teen had taken with great appreciation and warmth. ed had also grown to become interested in cooking, and after nearly burning double d’s house to ash multiple times while trying to cook hot dog burgers, had gotten a strict warning that he'd better work on his scientific skills if he ever considered returning to double d's kitchen again. this had led to double d spending a few grueling hours explaining measurements and proper handling of equipment, but had ultimately paid off in the form of the trio enjoying a delicious ed-cooked meal nearly three times a week.
ed had also joined a d&d league, following a recommendation from a (long overdo) psychiatric assessment that ed had dyslexia and adhd, and would benefit from some time outside of his house. double d and eddy had understood that this was a nice way of the shrink telling ed's parents that their continued domestic violence mishaps and borderline abusive behavior towards their son had been resulting in cognitive decline, and that ed having a productive hobby and solid support system would hopefully be able to keep him stable and shield him from his parents further traumatizing him.
eddy was, to few of the cul-de-sac kid's surprise, quite gifted in the areas of communications, business, and physical education. following his brother’s arrest and eventual incarceration, eddy had been hitting the gym to try and kill off his festering anger and hurt from the abuse. he had made the junior varsity football team the first year, and was quickly promoted to varsity his sophomore year. eddy was still shorter than ed and double d, but was noticeably stronger and better ‘filled out.’ eddy had prided himself on his self-described 'total beefy hunk of a bod,' much to ed's howls of amusement and double d's eye roll of affection. while eddy worked tirelessly on his car, ranting about the 'idiotic lack of, if actually existent, formation strategy’ of the quarterback, double d had become increasingly aware of how eddy's personality had developed. it was clear that eddy had become more confident, in not only himself, but in his abilities. he also showed an impressive talent for pattern recognition, strategizing, and planning. this had been a major asset to their football team, who were mostly 6'2 boulders that had clearly only made the team for their size. of course, it was inevitable that eddy would always be the snarky little attention hog he was, but it was pretty clear to double d that eddy was also becoming observant and (though this may be a stretch) stabilized. he had also gotten tattoos, one of a dragon that matched with ed and a few for other reasons that double d hadn't been paying attention to due to his uncharacteristic staring in shock and (now identifiable) gay panic. eddy had developed an obsession with piercings, too. his ears, left eyebrow, right nostril, and tongue in specific were victims of this endevor, and although kevin had rolled his eyes and scoffed at the look, eddy looked incredible and had remained confident in his appearance.
in fact, it was jimmy, who had grown up more than anyone could imagine, who was the first to compliment eddy on his piercings. jimmy had taken up swimming and diving, as well as student government, and debate team with eddy. his voice was scratchy and soothing, and his ability to tear it up in the pool had astonished and overjoyed everyone. he had been returning to states for swim year after year since the 7th grade, and the legendary smile that had always been the focal feature of his face was now accompanied by a freckling of acne. his baja sweatshirts and acid wash jeans, along with a surprising choice of reebok shoes, had been proof of his own self-settling.
sarah had become distant, although physically present, halfway through freshman year. that october, a rumor had circulated about sarah that double d didn't even want to think about, especially after sarah had told him the truth about what had actually happened.
sarah stayed close to ed the next few years, the rare instance of a unmistakable clang of a sarah laugh present after a particularly goofy joke from jimmy or a swat at the hand of ed trying to steal a french fry was rare, but had become more common. the sound of her laugh was helpful for reminding them that she was healing, and that the blazing force of fire that lies inside, although flickering, hasn't gone out.
johnny had joined a d&d leauge with ed, and was unsurprisingly terrific at arts of all kinds. he had gotten lead roles in the last few student-led visual arts productions, twice as the main supporting character and once as the lead-joseph, in 'joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat.' in the summers, johnny had played baseball, and was playing varsity by junior year. plank remained lodged in his backpack, a comforting reminder that some things never change.
rolf had also become interested in musical theater, as well as baseball. during baseball season, rolf, johnny, and kevin would spend lots of time together, baseball having brought them back. kevin and rolf remained close year round, rolf supporting kevin during football season and kevin supporting rolf at his theater performances, although theater was ‘nerdy’ in his unwarranted opinion.
to everyone's immense surprise, nazz had joined a band. she had joined a rock-n-roll jazz band with marie kanker and rolf, as well as two other boys and the occasional sarah on backup vocals. nazz had also joined the d&d league, per request of ed, and had seemed to be enjoying that. in the summer she played softball, also with marie, and had spent a great portion of each season trying to convince sarah to play.
nazz had grown into someone that double d deeply admired. she was authorative, inclusive, open, and stood firm in herself and her beliefs. she hadn't been interested in showing off, focusing primarily on connection and including others. the other boys in his grade had teased her for her interest in make up and fashion, and nazz didn't care. she enjoyed ‘feminine’ things because they made her happy, just like shredding on her guitar and playing d&d and other typically ‘masculine’ things made her happy. she did what she wanted to do, and she had told double d that even if she was applying make up or learning how to kick start a car engine to impress someone, than what's so wrong with that? what's wrong with wanting to look nice for someone, or wanting to be able to help them? what's wrong with having pride in yourself?
double d had went home after that conversation and started crying. he couldn't stop, and he didn't understand why he had been crying in the first place. he wasn't much of a crier at all-in fact he hadn't cried in months-but when nazz had explained that to him, he supposed he realized how much he cared about her. he realized that the kind of growth it takes to reach that conclusion could only stem from something changing, and he realized that an inevitable and painful part of growth is change.
he had also realized that change triggered advancement, which triggered the discovery of philosophies like the one nazz lived by.
it had also come to mind that to develop such a welcoming and independent philosophy, nazz may have experienced something that was possibly quite traumatizing.
it was the same string of thoughts that double d had regarding the look on eddy’s face before they parted ways for the night. the humid july night buzzed with cicadas and secondhand smoke hung suspended under the artificial buzz of the street light near their houses. a roar of laughter from eddy followed by a the scheming, sly smirk, the kind where you try to stop your teeth from showing but it happens anyway, the light producing a halo effect upon his best friend and leaving double d in a glowy haze. the way eddy’s nose scrunches slightly with the smile and the way his deep, spruce blue eyes stare coyly at him before he takes a final drag of a blunt rolled in a way the should be considered a violation of the herb's personal rights. his eyes mischievous but distant as his lips and lungs kill the joint for good, the image of eddy flicking the discarded paper away and exhaling the smoke upwards. following this dramatic gesture, was what eddy had said to double d moments before he had said goodnight on that warm july evening.
'd, there's no point in me stayin’ after graduation. nothin’ left to stay for once you and lumpy leave for school. i'm leaving this shithole, one way or another.’
double d remembers that moment exactly. the moment that triggered everything to follow, the specific moment when he had realized that he was absolutely terrified of losing his best friend in a way that hadn't previously aligned with his stasis levels. he remembers eddy waving goodbye, calling something about ‘catching him later,’ and double d paced back home and locked himself in his room.
he thought of what nazz had said earlier that day when the older kids of rhe cul-de-sac had gathered at rolf's for table tennis and an excuse to finish a pack of twisted teas. that it isn't wrong to want. it was, in fact, a fundamental function of a sentient creatures existence, and that the external shame that people project on others for having desires in inherently hypocritical. nazz, with her laid back attitude and approachable demeanor, sharing the wisdom of a life once lived through self-criticism.
he thought of what eddy had said about leaving this place, one way or another, and it was then that double d let the pieces of his strained conscious unravel and descended into a fit of choking through tears.
it was becoming very obvious to that eddward that he was entering an entirely different plane of trouble.

zuma i am so pissed rn you have NO idea AUGH
idk if you remember but i mentioned that i have a jjk fic somewhere out there and i made the reader a third year, right?? and you know how up until the actual culling game arc we don't see the third years at all, so i think it was reasonable for me to assume that they were suspended since yuuta's admission cause even back then they were never brought up.
so i've been making [name] hang out with the second years (first years ig, since i started in jjk 0) only to find out through the wiki page that, apparently, according to the official jjk fanbook, hakari was present during the parade of a hundred demons, and then he beat up some higher up sometime during then and that's how he got suspended. like, WHY DOES GEGE NOT WRITE THIS IN THE ACTUAL MANGA??? i hate plotholes, moreso in my own writing, and now it makes it seem like my reader is actively avoiding their own classmates for no good reason 💀 but i also am not that familiar with either of them so i guess i'm just gonna pretend they ain't there. if gege isn't talking then neither am i.
ANYWAY. i also don't really like how hakari is written but i think i'll save that for a seperate ask,,, thanks for answering my previous question! i've watched pokemon on and off, though the others not so much. i have heard that assassination classroom is REALLY good, though. i'm currently watching solo leveling cause someone asked me to watch it and apparently the mc will get a glow up and i am a simple person. i see a pretty boy who can fight, i click,,, i like plot too ofc, but having attractive people in a fandom is always an asset me thinks.
- 🍉
WAIR WHAAATT first who tf is hakari is it that one guy with the brownish black hair or am i losing it UH. BUT YEA THATS SO WEIRD WHY TF WOULD GEGE NOT EBEN MENTION THAT? 😭 i think he js has so many side characters that he gave up n got lazy.. BUT OMG ARE U STILL WRITING THE FIC?? 👁️ hows it goinf??!
YES JEHEJWN U NEED TO WATCH ASSASINATION CLASSROM PLS. U WIL LNOT REGRET IT I PROMISEEEE <3 solo levellinf trailers keeps coming on my yt fyp so i should prob check it out.. IS IT GOOD SO FAR?

9. Things you hope to see in future media
10. Things you never wanted to exist
(That is all. I love your content! Brings me so much serotonin. :))
1: gregory and evan EASY. evan is a little higher but on like a different level I think. when fnaf 4 came out he was actually like the first human character and I loved him as a kid. chris or the crying child was intriguing to me and I remember loving fnaf 4 soo much and looking at fanart of foxybro crying at crying childs hospital bed loll
gregory is just. I like him as a character so much. his story is so cool and just the game universe hes in is so easy to get into. I LOVE SECURITY BREACH AND SW ERA‼. it's so fun theorizing about him and waiting to see what's in store for him story wise. I could go on but that's enough lol
2: both animatronic and humans count?? if so I've always hated the guts of the trash pals. I feel bad they're just little guys but they bring me so much rage. idk why.
3: ...fnaf 4 and security breach. basically the exact same reasons for flashlight duo being my faves that I said up top. fnaf 4 has been my favorite for a long time and is the home of one of my top characters ever. I have memories with it and still enjoy it to this day. and security breach is just.... like its so full of love and you can tell and it has such a good world and characters. the passion is oozing out of ever crevice and it just got so unlucky. but it's all there in spirit if you know where to look and it makes the fanon incredible. just very easy to love
4: never been too much of a fan of ucn or pizza sim. sl as well for that matter 😭 sorry I just dont like them too much. I think there 100% should have been a buffer between sl and pizza sim and Henry was just so out of nowhere at the exact same time as the ending. it's just weird. they're not bad just not my favorites
5: OH BOY. Tony becker number 1. my beloved. second and third are greg fetch and oscar out of stock. oscar is genuinely one of the best written characters out of all the books and oos is just like. probably the best book in general. but Tony Becker takes my number 1 spot for being so so interesting alongside Gregory and being silly
6: dont really have one. I guess someone like Greg's dad
7: GGY!!!!! I just love GGY because its about Gregory but books on their own I love fetch and out of stock. I already have talked about why oos is so good but fetch is just a personal fave of mine as well. love u greg and oscar
8: DITTOPHOBIA.💥💥💥
9: definitely more Gregory backstory!! I'm hoping for GGY but I wont be too upset if its confirmed not canon. I'm just so excited to see where they take him. also would love to get more 3 star fam insight because we NEED some. also bring back Gregory and Freddy duo in gameplay I miss them every day
10: dittophobia💥💥💥
thank you so much dude!! I'm so glad my stuff makes you happy :))

It's 12:00 am so here's a weird question:
So, it's midnight as I'm writing this, so my brain is braining in some weird ways.
Anyways, I was thinking about writing cuz I'm working on a WIP right now and realized most if not all of my WIP's focus more on Kaminari than they do Jirou.
That in itself makes sense. I think it's because I just relate more to Kaminari's character growth/arc (or at least the one he should've been given and is still like kinda there) and, as anyone whose sen the art I've reblogged, relate to depressed Kaminari a bit to much in general.
But here's what I was thinking about: Is that a problem? Because obviously with me having several WIP's communication issues come up in a couple. But because it's written from Kaminari's "POV" (I mean I write third person, but the narrative follows him and his privy to his thoughts exclusively so like... I guess POV is the right term?) i think it ends up putting Jirou in the "at fault" position too much, simply because I never end up writing her "POV" (Or if I do, there's less of hers than Kaminari's). And that isn't sitting with me right right now.
For some examples: I have two fics out on Ao3 right now. In the first one I wrote (SPOILER ALERT IG) in the second chapter there's a slight mixup and it makes it seem like it's Jirou exclusively who's at fault for that, which like, doesn't seem right, especially as the first chapter was just shits and giggles. Then in the second fic I wrote the whole premise is on a miscommunication but it's only written from Kaminari's "POV", so it makes him seem entirely not at fault? Especially with the dialogue at the end of the fic, which I still think the dialogue makes sense for both characters, but like, it still makes out Jirou to be the only problem rather than blame on both sides? idk.
So, should I just try and write more stuff from Jirou's "POV" to fix that problem? Because if that is the solution I'm still afraid of just like doing a shitty job at it because I don't relate to the character as much and then it still seems like she would still go in the "at fault" position for miscommunications and other problems. Or is it that I just need to get better at writing?
Anyways, thoughts anyone?
