Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
┆彡 CHAN [ 찬 ]
you woke up in your and chris’ bed, which made your stomach turn. he must have brought you here.
suddenly sitting up, you noticed your boyfriend is absent. did he leave…?
jumping out of the bed you rushed to living room and were relieved to see him in the kitchen.
however, guilt washed over you upon seeing him so… lifeless, hurt.
“hi” you whispered, clutching your shirt. chan looked at you and smiled softly, nodding his head.
“morning. there’s some coffee for you, breakfast will be done in a few minutes” he hummed and returned his gaze to the pan.
“chan, listen… i’m sorry i snapped at you yesterday. yes, i was tired but…” you hesitated, voice cracking “that’s not an excuse, really”
“i’m just worried, y/n” he said and his features softened.
“i know, i know” you hung your head low, afraid that tears will escape any second “it’s just… work has been shit lately and it’s draining me emotionally and physically… and i just…”
“hey, hey. it’s okay. i understand it. that’s why i’m here, right? to help you. but to help you, i need to know first” chan walked up to you, wrapping his arms around you. this warm, secure hug made you feel at ease “but i won’t be able to know if we don’t talk”
“i know… i’m so, so sorry. for snapping and for acting like an asshole… i’m sorry channie” you cried, pouring your heart out.
“i forgive you, y/n. i already did. let’s just treat this as a lesson, okay?” chan soothed you gently “let it out, baby. i’m here”
┆彡 MINHO [ 민호 ]
you and minho became distant. you began touching and kissing him less, head overflowing with worries each time when physical contact involved. eventually, you stopped. you just greeted him in the morning or after work.
and minho hated this.
he knew it was his fault because he snapped you. and if he didn’t do anything about it, your relationship might be on a thread... if it wasn't already.
so one day, when you woke up… you felt a soft kiss being pressed to your arm. you smiled gently to yourself, trying to remain calm. what is he scheming…?
"y/nnie… i’m sorry"
you turned around, frowning. lino’s eyes softened but there was a glint of sadness in them.
"i snapped at you when i had a bad day already. and… it was one of those days when i just don’t want to be touched, even by you. it- it sounds so idiotic but i promise you, it’s not your fault…" minho started and you bit your lip. your hands ached to cup his face and– "i can see you’re thinking about it. it’s fine, i’m fine. no, actually i’m not. i missed your touch and kisses so so much. and i feel like an idiot because i’ve brought it on me but above all…”
he hesitated and tapped your finger. you nodded, granting him permission to hold you. in an instant, he shuffled closer and wrapped his arms tightly around you.
"i’m sorry i made you feel like that. i can’t even imagine how you must have felt, thinking if ill snap at you today too… im so… fucking… sorry… " minho’s voice broke off and you felt his body shiver.
"it’s okay, min. i forgive you, don’t feel guilty. just tell me next time, okay? i understand that on some days you’re feeling like you don’t want to be touched, i respect that" you hummed into his skin, drawing shapes "just tell me"
"i will" minho smiled softly, heart warming because of your words, kindness, and touch.
┆彡 CHANGBIN [ 창빈 ]
with a shaking hand you dialed changbin’s number, looking at the droplets falling in front of you. he picked up instantly.
"hello, baby?" he asked, concern in his voice. you took a deep breath, trying to control your breaking voice slightly at least.
"you… um, you were right…" you mumbled, sniffling.
silence fell and you were expecting an 'i told you so' or 'see?' but none of that happened.
"i’m sorry, pretty. i swear, next time i see them somewhere i’ll talk to them. i’ll pick you up, hm?" changbin asked and even though you knew he didn’t see, you nodded. your heart felt light that you didn’t fight again.
"i… um, i’m sorry. for being so defensive about them but… i was in the wrong…" a soft sigh left your lips and you heard a loud 'yah!' causing you to move your phone away for a bit.
"don’t apologize. i’m the one who should say sorry, truly. i just didn’t want you to get hurt again but… i took it to far, i said some messed up shit. sorry" chanbin’s voice was gentle and then suddenly you heard a honk. eyes widening, you saw his car "also i may or may not have already been waiting here…"
"dumbass” you scoffed, wiping your tears and going to his car with a smile.
┆彡 HYUNJIN [ 현진 ]
hyunjin entered the house, frowning upon the silence. your shoes were on the floor, dirty dishes in the sink, some miscellaneous items scattered around the living room.
"y/n?" he called out. no answer.
you weren’t in the bedroom either. hyunjin, growing anxious, opened the bathroom door.
he saw you sleeping in the tub, head almost barely above the water.
"yah, dumbass!" he yelped and dragged you a bit up, safe enough but still in the water. your eyes opened lazily, gaze unfocused.
"huh?" you blinked at him and saw genuine worry on his face.
"you fell asleep in the tub, y/n. i got so scared" he sighed, tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear. he noticed your eye bags and it hit him like a truck: sure, dancing is his profession and he gets tired. but you, as a cleaning lady move as much as him and have to deal with other - usually assholes - people. you must be exhausted, even more than him.
then his gaze shifted to various scratches and bruises on your arms. you noticed it and smiled softly.
"it’s nothing, you know how clumsy i am. today i knocked over a broom and it hit my arm… it was kinda funny actually" you grinned but only saw sadness behind his eyes "hyune?"
"i… the thing i said the other day… i don’t mean it. i don’t think you’re just a cleaning lady, i shouldn’t say anything like this. and, it’s a bit stupid, but i realized just now… that at the end of the day, you’re probably as tired as me" he mumbled, voice small. you nodded, grabbing his hand.
"i won’t lie, what you said hurt me. but… i get it, you were tired and i got on your nerves–" you started.
"but i shouldn’t have bursted like that. let me take care of you now, hm? do you want me to wash your hair?" hyunjin asked, a cute smile finally blooming on his lips. you nodded energetically, causing him to giggle and place a tender kiss atop your head before proceeding to wash your hair.
┆彡 JISUNG [ 지성 ]
when he left the party, glad to finally be out… someone grabbed his arm. he turned around and saw beomgyu.
"what?" jisung grunted, looking at the stranger.
"dude, i don’t know what’s your problem but me and y/n were literally talking about you" beomgyu said, letting go of his arm "besides, i’m taken"
jisung wanted to snarl 'so what?' but the sudden reality hit him: he threw a tantrum like a spoiled brat and almost went home without you. beomgyu scanned his face suspiciously, seeing the gears turn in jisung’s head.
"y/n loves you, i can see it in the way her face lits up when she speaks about you" beomgyu said and shrugged, adding before leaving "thought i’d just let you know"
jisung went back, looking for you. it turned out you stayed outside, gazing into the sky.
"um, hi" he mumbled, sitting down next to you. you didn’t reply "i’m… sorry"
"that was fast" you teased, bitterness shining through your voice.
"beomgyu walked up to me. i acted like an idiot, i know. i was just… jealous, i guess" jisung murmured almost incoherently, shy about his feelings. you turned around and sent him a sky smirk.
"you were what?"
jisung rolled his eyes playfully.
"i was jealous, are you happy?" he repeated louder.
"it’s fine. just… don’t yell at me. and let me finish, for god’s sake. if you listened what i had to say, you’d know that we were discussing which guitar i should buy you as a gift" you explained and saw his eyes widen. you couldn’t possibly stay mad any longer at this boba-eyed quokka.
┆彡 FELIX [ 필릭스 ]
there was a doorbell echoing through the living room and you sent your friend a puzzled look. she shrugged and went to open the door.
"oh… y/n, it’s felix" she turned around and sent you a pitiful look. you just sighed, nodding. she let him in, scanning him head to toe threateningly, and left to her bedroom to give you some privacy.
"how did you know i’m here?" you asked, eyes avoiding his.
"(friend name) added a picture to the story that you’re here… so… um… i grabbed those and flew"
finally looking up, you noticed the bouquet of your favorite flowers in his hand. felix handed you them and sat down next to you on the couch, hesitantly tapping his fingers on his thigh. he wanted to hold your hand but wasn’t sure if you wanted to right now.
"i’m a bad boyfriend, aren’t i? even seungmin knew you were fired" he sighed with a sad smile "i’m so sorry. there’s nothing that could… be an excuse"
you took his hand in yours, humming in thought.
"will you work on it? i missed you. i know work is busy but at least talk to me, eat breakfasts with me… if we don’t work it out, i’m afraid–" your voice broke, not even wanting to say those words.
felix hugged you tightly, holding you as close as possible.
"i know. i will work on it, i promise. i’ll try to clear my schedule and we can go on a trip to jeju maybe?" he mumbled into your shoulder.
he just got a last chance and he wasn’t going to blow it.
┆彡 SEUNGMIN [ 승민 ]
returning home after three days, you entered the house only to see seungmin sleeping on the couch. the place was neatly cleaned, not even a single dirty spot in sight.
"oh, you’re back" seungmin murmured drowsily, leaning on his elbows "how was the stay?"
"good. why are you sleeping in the couch?" you asked, walking up to the fridge to put in the food your mom gave you. to your surprise, it was full with fresh groceries.
"i… uh, couldn’t really sleep well without you. i also have a thought about what i said and… listen, y/n, i’m sorry" he said "i really like your parents, i really do. i was just tired and… i don’t know what it’s like, that’s true. i didn’t consider your and their feelings… and i just hope your parents don’t hate me now because i’ll cry"
"i think they love you more than me at this point, my mom kept asking about you" you smiled softly, relieved to hear that you made wrong assumptions.
"just tell me a bit earlier if we’re going next time, okay?" he asked and you nodded with a happy grin "besides, it was lonely here without you"
┆彡 JEONGIN [ 정인 ]
"dude, what the fuck?" changbin asked, standing frozen. jeongin frowned "you were supposed to text eunjeong only to get the info about the cake, nothing more!"
that was true – they wanted to make you a surprise party because you passed your exams and eunjeong works in one of the best bakeries in the town, so they figured it’d be the best to text her.
"i got distracted… i didn’t know y/n would make such a fuss out of it" jeongin grunted and opened his phone to see your location on 'my friends'. he bit his lip, sudden realization hitting him like a ton of bricks. if he found out you were texting your ex… he wouldn’t be pleased about it either.
"what are you waiting for? go after her! and don’t spoil the surprise, too!" changbin pushed him out of the dorm.
in no time jeongin caught up with you, grabbing your hand. you turned around, wet stains on your cheeks. he felt a sharp sting in his heart upon realizing it’s his fault.
"listen… i didn’t mean any of that. but i need you to trust me" jeongin said, squeezing your hand. you hesitated.
"why? i trust you i just… don’t trust her" you mumbled, wiping your cheek.
"i know, i’m sorry. you’ll see soon, okay? can you forgive me? i love you so much, i just didn’t think it would hurt you that way" he added shyly. nodding softly, you tightened your lips into a line.
"okay…" you hummed.
hopefully the cake will be delicious enough to regain at least a piece of your trust.

i KNOW i might sound insane, but what if vampire! Engel sets up traps around her isolated dark castle to capture any animal that is unfortunate enough to step on one of them, because she swears to not ever consume human blood and swore to only consume animal blood
and vampire hunter! König unluckily (luckily??) stepped on one of the bear traps, and she heard a scream from outside, so she went out to check and SHE SMELLED the smell she tried so hard to hide herself from
And she just kinda stood there, drooling and saw a very big BIG man, she thought it was a bear until he pulled out her dagger and pointed it at her, while panting in pain
IDKKK ITS GIVING ENEMIES TO LOVERS? STRANGERS TO LOVERS????? I worte this ina hirry because im about to cry thinking about it
Oh god the angst exploded in this one… sorry not sorry but these two are just UGHHH
König thought he was getting rescued when he heard the sound of soft footsteps. His stomach sinks when he sees this is not the case: his situation is far more dire than he thought. Not only is he stuck in an old trap and about to lose a foot: he's being hunted by the most dangerous, most beautiful little predator he has ever seen.
She's prowling, hungry and keen, crawling barely ten feet away from his sorry corpse-to-be. Her eyes glow in the darkness as she licks her lips; she's looking at her prey like a cute little house cat, dark and treacherous and extremely curious. He can't understand how those perfect hands could've managed to set all these traps: they look so dainty and frail. But looks can be deceiving when it comes to vampires. She's probably stronger than an average human male.
He can't hear her thoughts, which must be filled with the desire to drink. He doesn't have to: any vampire hunter can see that this one hasn't eaten properly in a while. Her lips are pale, she's breathing fast, she even moves on all fours like she's either too afraid or too weak to stand. Her fingers curl around the moss as she looks at him; her body almost trembles with anticipation.
When he draws his blade, she lets out a hiss and recoils further into the shadows. He's a pathetic mortal and a weak man for mourning the loss of that pretty little face and those lovely, enchanting eyes. He knows that she's a vampire, she's supposed to seduce her victims, but he can't help his sinful thoughts.
No woman has ever looked at him like that…
No woman has ever prowled upon him, it's usually the other way around. It won't take tremendous strength to kill this lovely little creature, but it will take a tremendous amount of willpower, a thing he used to have in abundance before he met her.
"Shy one. Did you set all these traps?" He asks and lowers his blade. The woman slinks back into a beam of moonlight, now standing on her own two feet. Her hips sway like in a dream, her red little tongue darts across the pale, bloodless lips.
"Who else if not me?"
Her voice is cool, cascading silk. It's calling him in like a siren song, forcing him to lower his dagger even more. She's dressed like an angel, in the purest white. A cruel joke from a vampire, or a desperate attempt to recall who she used to be when she was alive.
But her eyes are innocent – she's either the most cunning vampire he's ever met or then she's trapped, far more badly than him.
"You like to torture your victims?"
His question leaves the creature blinking. Then the curious eyes narrow to slits, the confused, hungry little mouth begins to pout.
"No. The traps are not meant for humans."
"No…? Why am I caught in one then?"
"Perhaps because you're clumsy."
She's cute when she's annoyed. Vampire charms or no, she lashes out so tactfully and elegantly that he cannot help but smile. What a proud, stubborn little creature… She's a sad, lonely little thing, just like he is. He would love to take her home as a pet.
His eyes must be softer when he smiles because it throws the vampire off guard. She takes a curious step towards him.
"If I set you free… will you leave me in peace?"
Her eyes are big and pleading now, free of any deceit, and he curses in his mind. If she's trying to allure him into another trap, it's working far too well.
"Ja," he tries to keep his voice even, "But if you try to drink from me–"
"I don't drink from humans."
"...Why not?"
There's no answer. But she takes another step, then another, then floats down to help him out of the huge trap meant for game. Her suspicious eyes dart to his blade every now and then until he decides to sheathe his weapon. The old hunters would deem him dead after this, but he can only concentrate on the woman before him. Her weak frame summons an immense amount of strength to open the trap.
The scent of blood must be like opium to her as the fresh wound on his leg becomes exposed. Her nostrils quiver and flare, her eyes flutter closed as she sighs softly. For that sweet, soft sound alone, he would open his veins for her himself.
"Fräulein… Are you alright?" He asks while bleeding profusely all over the ground. If she attacks him now, the culling would be well earned. No man should be this weak-willed.
"You… You smell good," she moans, her voice filled with so much longing that he can't take it anymore.
"Scheisse... Listen. One bite. Ja? You can have one bite and then I'll–"
Darkness and light envelop him all at once.
She dives forward like an eager lover, her body cold and frail and yet, so demanding when it hits him like the softest tide. He falls back, taking her with him, the vampire woman who is everything he ever wanted.
Her lips tremble on his neck for a while before she opens her mouth and sinks her tiny little teeth in. What else can he do but clutch her – in pleasure and in pain as she drinks and drinks and drinks until he's hard and groaning under her. The pain in his leg turns into full, ecstatic pangs of rushing blood, his ears are ringing with the song of it.
All he can feel is her. He can feel her relief and her hunger and the quick but quenching thirst, it makes him so happy his heart is about to burst.
The shy little lady is all but fearful now. She doesn't seem to care that his hands are roaming across her back and all over her waist. No: she hums and purrs with delight, attaches to him like she's in desperate need of a release too. She hasn't had a hearty drink in ages, then. He's glad to provide it for her: death is a small price to pay if he gets to hold her like this. If she kills him in these woods, it will be a good way to go.
"You don't… drink from humans, ja?"
He tries to laugh, but his voice comes out as a dry croak. The body above him goes tense like a bowstring.
"Don't be shy, kleine Engel," he rumbles when a pitiful sob disrupts the drinking. He only holds her closer: if these are his last minutes alive, he will spend them with this woman in his arms. The reassurance works, in a way: she draws breath so fast that the last gulp turns into a suck. It forces his whole body rigid; nothing has ever felt so good. But then she stops, and lets him go with an agonized, heartbroken look.
Vampires can't cry, that's what he was taught long ago in the academy. The demons of the night are to be hunted because they can never shed a tear for their sins. But this angelic creature, now warm and full and lush in his embrace, has tears streaming down her face.
"What did you call me?" She asks with a frail, thin voice. The white shadow above him is made of pure light as his senses begin to fail. He barely discerns that she looks more healthy, even more mesmerizing than before now that she has had her fill. He whispers his last words into the night air, just before losing consciousness.
"An angel…"
It's dawn when he wakes up without ever expecting to do so.
Someone has kept the beasts away during the dark, dangerous hours of the night. His wound is treated and his water can is full when he comes to. She has even brought her some bread and cheese on the forest floor. Stolen, no doubt, from some local homestead. The only evidence of him holding her in his arms last night are the two little punctures he finds on his neck. Small, neat and cute, just like her.
It doesn't help to know that vampires rarely leave their victims alive unless they wish to come back to them. It doesn't help to know that the reason for their return is usually the desire to turn the victim into a vampire – into a companion.
He should pursue and hunt her, but he's too weak. Or that's what he tells himself, at least. Deep down he knows he wouldn't do it even if he was in his prime.
After all, he could never kill an angel.

Sleeping beauty - Xavier Thorpe
Summery: You found your best friend sleeping in his shed, his body laying on something he was drawing before falling asleep. Little did you know, it was a drawing of you.
Warnings: fluff, kissing, best friends to lovers, if there's any others please let me know
Word count: 1.3k
A/N: im sorry if this is really bad, i didn't check the story after finishing it up so there's probably gonna be some mistakes in here. this is my first time ever posting on tumblr, this is all very new to me and idk how any of this works or if im doing it correctly so please let me know what you think. im always open for suggestions or feedback!
——————
Walking outside in the forest after dark wasn't your favorite activity to do but you got a little worried about your best friend, Xavier. You texted him a while ago asking if everything was alright and he hasn't replied back yet. You're aware that he likes to take his distance sometimes and wants to be alone, which you completely understand and respect. But you also knew that whenever something is wrong, he keeps it to himself even when he shouldn't. He knows that you have your own things to sort out sometimes and he doesn't want you to carry around his luggage too, he doesn't want to feel like a burden.
He has the perfect spot to go to whenever he wants to be alone, a place where he can let go and express himself. Out in the woods next to the school there's a shed somewhere, he cleaned it out with permission from Ms. Weems to turn it into his private art studio. So naturally that's the first place that came to mind when you found out he wasn't in his room.
After a 15 minute walk in the woods you finally spot the old shed, covered by loads of plants that grew onto it over the years. It was certain he was inside as the lights of his shed were turned on, and only he can enter the shed considering he's the only one with a key.
You open the door quietly, not wanting to scare him this late at night. Your eyes scan the room looking for your friend, but you frown as you dont see him immediately. You take a step further inside, being able to see the room more.
That's when you spotted him, sitting on his wooden stool while his upper body was leaning on his workbench. He was sleeping peacefully, not even waking up because of the door opening. And you can imagine it making quite some noise considering how long that shed has been standing there in the forest. His hair was partly tied up in a loose bun, while also being untied at the back. A few strands of hair had fallen over his eyes, mouth slightly open. You could hear him breathe very quietly, holding your own breath to prevent him from waking up because of any noise. Even though he wouldn't wake up so easily, but you still felt the need to not make a sound.
If you could take a picture of this very moment, you'd carry it with you anywhere you go. Your heart melts at the sight of him, you stand there almost dying from cuteness overload. There was no denying that you see him as more than just a friend, but you would never actually admit that to anyone. Some of your other friends knew about your little crush on him, but it looks like Xavier himself can't take a hint at all. You've tried dropping him subtle hints, some a little less subtle than others, but it has no use. He must be blind to not notice you flirting with him all the time, or at least try to. That or he knows you like him, but decides not to say anything about it, being too afraid to lose you as a friend because of it.
As you get lost in your own thoughts again, your eyes divert from his pretty face to what seems to be what he was drawing before he had drifted off into deep sleep, staring at what you see in shock.
Underneath his body, drawn on the paper, was you. He made a drawing of you petting a kitten near the lake. It had so much details in it, you would think that he made this on the spot while you were posing for it. Thinking back to when this happened, you remember it being from before you two were even friends. It was one of your first days at Nevermore and you hadn't made any friends yet, not any human friends at least. You had gone for a walk near the lake to clear your mind after class, meeting a cute little orange kitten while you were there. You don't remember anyone else being around, let alone it being Xavier.
It makes you wonder though, was he following you? If so, what was the reason? Even if that was a bit of a stalker move, you couldn't help but feel warm inside because of it. Maybe there was a chance he did like you more than a friend. You leaned in a little closer to him, pressing your lips lightly to his cheek. You don't know what came over you in that moment, but you really felt the need to do that. This might be the only time you get to do this, so why not.
Unfortunately that light touch was enough to wake sleeping beauty, Xavier's eyes fluttered open slowly and his arms pushed his body up from the table. He makes eye contact with you and frowns at the sight of you standing there so close to him in the middle of the night.
"What are you doing here?", he asked softly but his voice came out a little raspy.
You couldn't make a sound, your eyes nervously looking at Xavier, then at the drawing, and then back at Xavier. He followed the direction of your eyes, also looking at the drawing now. He had completely forgotten he was working on that before he fell asleep, his body filling with embarrassment now as he realizes what situation he's gotten himself into.
"Uh, I can explain..."
He got nervous and looked down at the floor, not wanting to look you in the eye right now. He knew he couldn't talk himself out of this, you needed an explanation and he couldn't think of a single excuse. His hands were fiddling with the hem of his shirt and his face was turning a dark shade of pink, his body language was telling you exactly what you needed to know.
Taking a deep breath before opening his mouth again to say something while still not looking at you, he was prepared to finally tell you how he feels about you. Before he could say a word you lifted his chin up and softly kissed his lips, catching him completely off guard. It didn't take very long for him to kiss you back though, he had been waiting for this moment for so long. It didn't happen the way he thought it would, but he was definitely not complaining about it.
His hands found their way to your waist and pulled you closer to him, you falling onto his lap as a result. After what felt like ages you slowly pulled away from him, not really wanting to but you needed to catch your breath.
For a moment it stays silent in the shed, neither of you making any noise. All that's happening is you two staring at each other, enjoying the moment while thinking about what just happened. Xavier is the first one to break the silence.
"Does this mean you like me? More than just a friend?", he asks hesitantly.
"Took you long enough to realize, I've been trying to tell you for so long but you never seem to notice.", you let out a soft laugh while wrapping your hands around his neck.
"Maybe you should do something about your flirting skills then, they're gonna need some improvement if your goal was to show me you liked me.", he couldn't stop himself from teasing you.
"Oh please, there's nothing wrong with my flirting skills. If you would just open your eyes for once you'd see-"
Before you had the chance to finish that sentence he smashed his lips on yours to shut you up. This time the kiss was much more passionate and lasted even longer than the previous one. You never could've imagined this was how your night was going to end.

liaaa please don’t give me that promotion 💀 more hotch stuff bc ive been pining more for him lately and i keep thinking about that idea i told you about (where reader is jack’s teacher)? i’d think that aaron would try to bring jack to school personally, just to see you even if it was for few minutes? oh but can you imagine valentine’s day in jack’s school and the kids have to draw people in their lives they love/care a lot about and in his final drawing it’s you, aaron and jack next to a house on one side with his friends and his aunt on the other?
and when aaron comes to pick jack up, you hand him and jack this picture back and start complimenting jack on his skills but aaron is at the side wondering if this could work again?? :( he’s afraid of falling in love because he’s not sure if he’ll be able to protect them or be there for them when in need, but seeing his son so happy again just makes his heart melt. he likes being around you too, noticing that he has been putting his guard down when you’re talking to him.
once you’re done, you gently pat the top of jack’s head and he giggles as he walks away holding his dad’s hand, waving goodbye to you before a small slip up — he says “bye mom”. you can tell aaron freezes up, unsure how to feel but you’re immediately calling out to both of them saying that kids do this all the time and its no big deal.
you pass jack a little sweet, hoping it’ll ease the embarrassment he’s feeling. aaron turns to watch as you interact with his son, smiling and patiently reassuring him that it’s okay and that’s when he blurts out an invitation to have dinner with him?? this man would be so direct with no frills whatsoever, and while you’re taken aback by how abrupt it was, you can tell that he’s a little embarrassed by it too — his cheeks are tinted pink and he watches you nervously before you say yes. you quickly scribble down your number and pass it to him before leaving to tend to the other kids and their parents, now before sending a quick wink to the both of them.
aaron’s heart is beating like crazy because there’s no way he just managed to do that but as he walked towards his car, he cant help but smile at the thought that things are finally looking better for him, and that maybe, it doesn’t have to be just the two of the hotchner boys anymore <3
IM SO SORRY FOR ALWAYS SENDING LONG ASKS D:

aww baby, i don't think you gave me this idea the last ask you sent was sad horny hotch but teacher!reader !!!!! 👀👀👀👀 also never apologise for the long ask!!! i love them!! 🤍🤍
this makes me so sad and happy because the first chance at love after such a devastating loss??? 🥺🥺 like after the whole haley thing, he's so scared to love again because what happens if history repeats itself and he falls too fast and too deep?? but you're such a burst of colour, so vibrant and just so beautiful he just wants a taste. a little glimpse of what if.
and when he looks back after reaching his car, he can see you smiling and laughing to the other parents with their kids and you just look so damn gorgeous. the wind blowing just the right amount, the sun dancing across your face, all of it feels like a romcom. it's such a cliché but he all he wants to do is scoop you up in his arms and whirl you around before planting a soft kiss to your lips which look so inviting.
he paces himself though, this time he's a little more reserved but it's only because its so new. you've said yes to his invite, surely that must mean something good.
and in the midst of it all, your eyes have catches his again just before he enters his car. the usual stoic face drops a little and you see a hint of a smile and something more. his cheeks are tinged with pink, his eyes a hurricane of emotions even if you're too far away to decipher which is the most dominant. jack calls out to him again and he awkwardly breaks out of the trance, looking at his son before shooting you a soft smile as he gets into his car after securing jack in his seat
this dinner would be perfect, he concludes in his head. seeing your beautiful face and seeing just how happy you make him and jack feel, it was going to be all okay.
i love this so bad 😩🤲 your 😺 may belong to gideon but your heart def belongs to hotchycakes <33 😙😙

Your art is really cute! Amazing! I love the palette you work with for your art and the lines stick out really well! I'd love to draw Amy as well, but I struggle with her head and eyes sense there's no gap between the brow. Do you have any tips for that? Thank you in advanced, and I hope you're doing good!
Hi anon! First of all Thanks a lot!! I’m really flattered by all your words and sorry for how long this took, art block has been beating my ass, i have my own way of making Amy’s eyes and maybe there is a few tips i can share!
Tumblr media
So, without further ado welcome to my (probly not very good sorry) tutorial on how i draw Amy´s eyes!
Please have in mind that i´m not a professional in any way and this is only for reference!
Tumblr media
So I’m aware that this image will not be very helpful, I’m at a stage in which i can just draw Amy’s eyes in one go (im totally not flexing i still have to try many times) since I’ve drawn her so many times already, and then i just add the details later, i just wanted to show the actual way i do it before we start.
Tumblr media
Okay now let me share a trick i actually do myself when I’m having issues drawing Amy’s eyes!
1-We start with a circle! It’s they way i establish the size the eyes will have, i like making big ol’ eyes so it’s very important for me to make sure of the size.
2- Draw two dragon ball type of eyes, if you are having trouble with this just draw the full circles and erase the sides so you have a similar shape!
3- Here is when the magic happens, connect the brows! Two eyes turn into one! this has saved me so may times, you can adjust the size of the eyes to your liking.
4- Add the muzzle and nose as a reference for the face positioning, you can add a line for the muzzle, i personally don’t do this since i like the softer look the characters get when they don’t have the line.
5-Erase the circle and add eyes and ears! use the muzzle as a reference to draw Amy’s s head, her head is very circular!
Tumblr media
For the record i draw Amy’s s eyes in more of a semi-circular way and the no muzzle line makes her face look kind of flat, on model Amy’s eyes flow with her muzzle instead of stopping on it like mine does, this is something you have to have in mind if you want your art to look more on model!
Tumblr media
Try different shapes! angry eyes usually look sharper, more happy/exited eyes might look more circular etc, i recommend using a lot of references as well since they are the best way of learning in my opinion!
Tumblr media
And last but not least, go nuts!! Remember that all these rules can be broken, experiments with different types of eyes, and don’t be afraid of going off model, after all we do fan art for ourselves and drawing connected eyes is not a must for drawing sonic art!
I hope you found this little tutorial useful, I had a lot of fun breaking this down, I’ll be very happy to see more fan art of Amy in the future!

Hello again!
Sorry for being in here so much! I wanted to ask your opinion on something about Lewis and his interactions with people he is interviewed by or who he meets for the first time. What i mean is, when Lewis met Takashi Murkami and he described him as a nugget of love or something of those words or when the Mercedes E Sports boys met Lewis and Marcel said meeting Lewis is like an experience you can’t put into words (again im not sure of his exact words) what do you think it is about Lewis that makes people feel that way? Because no offence, i don’t often see anyone else being spoken about in this manner, so I wonder what it is about Lewis that has people feeling this way. And in your opinion, why do you think, despite this, people still want to call his character into question and imply or blatantly say he is the opposite of what so many other people have said he is?
I also would like to ask, what are a couple of things about Lewis that you appreciate?
Have a good day!
hey you! sorry for getting to this so late. i needed a breather. yes!!! people's reaction to meeting him is my absolute favorite thing. the way murakami has described him is a masterpiece in itself. it's so overwhelmingly priceless. he must be magic, this guy <3
well i've never met him so it wouldn't be right for me to try and guess the feeling or vouch for any of these experiences. at least not without bringing out my inner parasocial crazies. but in my opinion, aside from the obvious personality and aura, he's highly intuitive and excellent at reading energies around him and more often than not he reflects them back, probably drawing people in. he's super respectful and attentive when they're engaging him which must be refreshing. also he never ever does what's expected of him—including expectations based on perceptions, media reports or hearsay that always paint him a certain way. it probably surprises them the most i guess?
i appreciate and love a whole lotta things about him but let me try and stick to the topic and context here. i love that he is compassionate and often tries to show it through actions. he will ask interviewers about their day or lives, in a curious yet respectful way. will try to make them feel comfortable by being calm and soft-spoken. will try to make time for fans and not just through sheer obligation. i like that he's intentional with every single thing he does in public eye. it comes from hard learned lessons i'm sure and must take a whole team of people to make it work so well. but i love it, especially when you know the level of unnecessary scrutiny he faces.
i love the fact that he's not perfect. don't think i'd be a fan if he was. as someone learning to live with maladaptive perfectionism i take solace sometimes knowing it's okay to be less than perfect and it's okay to learn and improve, it's okay to keep striving in ways that might never reach perfection. you're allowed to be wrong and you can always be/do better the next time. i love it when he's spontaneous, lets out normal human emotions and passionate reactions. i love that he's one petty mf if and when he decides to be. love that he's always curious and ready to learn. he's not afraid of expressing himself, being himself (anymore), i really admire that. he could have easily gotten jaded by now with the amount of success as well as negativity but instead he's elevated himself beyond both and has nurtured his heart to be the best version of himself and enjoy the journey he's on.
but, one thing that i love the most about him is how easy he makes everything look. if there's one thing about him it's that he is going to make everything look effortless—hard work, driving, winning, success, fashion, attitude, reaction to criticism & hate, and most of all living (and living rent free in so many heads). it's probably what pisses some people off too. must need heaps of discipline, focus and strength to achieve it. but he does it anyway and you have to appreciate that.

Heya! i was wondering if i could get a matchup for tbhk, death note and mha? (only male characters please!)
I’m a minor, and my pronouns are she/her. I’m 4’10 (148 cm), and 'petite'. My MBTI is INTP and im a scorpio. I have dark drown eyes, shoulder length hair with layers and a fringe (its basically like ochakos haircut). My aesthetic is best described as the 'downtown girl aesthetic' but im a little alt too. I have alot of scars on my arms and legs so i would need to be with someone who wouldnt mind them or be disgusted by them, (when people see my scars, especially the ones on my legs, they look at them in disgust so,,)
My personality is compared to a cat and im a huge animal lover. My favourite color is purple and my interrests are drawing and listening to music, photography and baking. (i cant cook at all, baking is my forte) I also really like horror movies, the paranormal and basically anything creepy.
Im very touchy but only with people im very close to. My love languages are touch, biting and words of affirmation. I'm quiet around most people and on the introverted side. I get annoyed quite easily so when someone pisses me off im definetly not afraid to speak my mind though.
extra: Im always really cold so most of the time i have a heat pack with me when im in the house. I also really like chocolate and snacks. I always have something im snacking on.
Sorry this took so long I was busy with school!
Matchup for scara!
Tumblr media
Tbhk: Mitsuba
When he met you, it was love at first sight. He loved everything about you, he especially loves your personality. He thinks it's much similar to his and that the two of you share a lot in common. When hanging out with your guy friends, you're always seen together never disagreeing with what the other is thinking about.
Being a ghost he hadn't seen many animals before, but when you took him to see a few he fell in love immediately and the two of you now go out once a week to see animals. You came home one day to him surrondined by a bunch of animals that now thought your guys home was their home and refused to leave, but at least you like animals.
You suggested baking together and he was hesitant at first, but got into it after a while. The two of you had bright smiles on your faces when mixing the batter together, but it got a bit chaotic when you split some flour on him and then a flour fight started Now, while whatever you gusy were baking cooks the two of you have to clean the kitchen from the mess you guys made.
Tumblr media
Death Note: Misa
You met her at a modeling event when you were hired to be her part time assistant for the day, but when she saw your outfit, she immediately fell in love and demanded to see you in other outfits. She completely forgot about the event and focused on all the clothes you were being forced to try on. Once she was done making you try outfits on, you'd think she would be done and ready to go to the event, but you were wrong She then had you sit down in a chair for hours, while she tried different hairstyles on you.
It was quick for you guys to get into a relationship and for you to become her full time personal assistant Being the typical model she is, Misa demanded that the two of you announce your relationship on every social media there was meaning photos had to be taken: Lucky for you, you enjoyed photography and the photos came out super well and every single one of her followers loved them.
Horror movies are a must in your relationship. Maybe Misa seems like a baby sometimes, but she can get down on a horror movie, having a bunch of food and snacks for the two of you and face masks waiting to be done as the horror movie plays in the background. She doens't get scared easily during horror movies, but when your around she's acting scared just so you can hold her close and "protect her."
Tumblr media
MHA: lida
When you told him about his scars, you were prepared for him to be disgusted and no longer want to see you again, but it was quite the opposite. He was supportive and didn't mind any of the scars that were on your body. He showed his own scars from when he was doing hero work and hoped that you wouldn't feel ashamed to ever show him your scars.
He wasn't big on being touched and doing affection, but that was until you came into his life and introduced him to those sorts of things. He now enjoys coming up behind you and wrapping his arms around your form to hold you close. He also does it to keep you warm, especially during the winter when snow is falling and he sees you shivering, he'll pull you close and keep you warm.

Virtual Reality
finally İzuku became the #1 hero.like his childhood dream like all might.
he was helping everyone showing the light to the villians everything was perfect.
his father always helped him. after rescuing shigaraki from all for one , he came back.
but there is always that he didnt expect to happen
first there was the sound of a glass breaking then ı banged my head .shock is still in my mind when ı opened my eyes.
“where am I?!”
—————————•——————————
ı took off the medicine mask from my mouth when ı looked around, the room was dark, the green color illuminated the room a little.the air was so thin it made me cough.
İzuku realized at that moment was that his arms and all his hardwork is gone.
Alarms go off everthing flashes red. he panicked . his heart are moving with alarms. he was choking on his choughs.
he could hear so many foot steps.
I closed my eyes.someone took me in their arms.
“dont run away my bunny.”the voice was so soft and deep.
“ dont be afraid you eill be fine now, daddy is got you”a hand started drawing a circle on my back.
“dad?”
I slowly opened my eyes and saw my fathers face softened with worry.
“yes ducky.” he started caressing my head.
“why am ı here and what hapened to my arm-“ı looked at him scarred.
“hush little one… Im sorry about what hapened to you.ı couldnt stop it”he frowned.
its like the moment my mom found out ı was quirkless.
Tears were threatening to fall from my eyes.
a hand wiped my tears as they fall”dont cry bunny.its all over, dad is here to take care of you.”
he started rocking me back and forth slowly at the same time.
my stomach growled. I was so ashamed.I had ignored it until now.
“hmm.. you look hungry. would you like something to eat?”he chuckled.
When a nice smell hit my nose,I immediately looked up.
Katsudon!
he started to feed me. “did you like it?”
“taste… good”I spoke with my mouth full.
when ı looked up he looked very happy.
By the time ı finished eating I was feeling better…. and sleepy.A yawn escaped my mouth.
“ you must be tired little one.”he chuckled.”lets tuck you in bed.”
I leaned against my fathers chest as he took me to bed.I could hear his heartbeat. I soon fell asleep.
—————————•—————————
His son looked so peaceful while he was sleeping. The sleeping pill had taken effect thankfully.
He always wanted to feel this moment.ı felt the void in my heart was starting to fill again. A void he couldnt fill since his brother and son died.
he felt peacefull while caressing his hair.
He would never let him die again.
Even though he dont want to.
—————————•—————————
“Why do you treat me like a baby?”
“hmm, why did you think that?”He brought another piece of food closer to my mouth.
I swallow it fast “Whenever you’re around me you look at me like ım a baby”I frowned.
“because I love you more than you can think of besides ı missed you”He smiled.
My father wiped out my mouth with a napkin.
His phone started ringing.
“I will be right back.”He left before ı can say anything to him.
When he came back his face remained neutral.
“Ducky,do you want to came to your dad’s job?”
There wasnt much to do around here so I accepted.
He picked me up “ So let’s clean you up ducky.”
—————————•—————————
He sat me on his lap and started playing with my hair.
“ I love you hair. I used to keep it a bit long too but its easier this way.” He sighed.
“ I dont usually bother taming my curls.”I said as I leaned into his hand.
“sensei” Long black hair waving as he approached.
“did you bring the others?”My dad asked.
“Yes. They are here.”
then his eyes fell on me.
“Im İzuku”I said.
I saw strange emotions pass over his face.
“I take my leave.” He left quickly.
İt was like something about me bothered him.
My dad held one side of my face.” Dont worry,Tenko usually stays at such a distance.”
I started to feel uncomfortable when other people came in.I run away quickly.
“İzuku!”
I could feel my dad looking after me with concern.
While I was looking around something caught my eye.
It was very dark.When I turned and cablesran through the graund.They say curiosity kills cat.I quickly went in.
I gasped when I saw brains and black skins.
That can’t be happening right now, right?
His dad created nomu’s.He had always ignored his da- no all for one’s suspicious behavior.He acted so foolish.
Now he would either escape or act like nothing happened.But İzuku can’t do this anymore.
he saw a table at the distance.
Unfortunately nothing was able to used with this arms.Than he saw the photo of him sleeping on the edge of the table.
I hit a tank when I tried to run away quickly.
“kacchan?!”I screamed in shock.
All of my friends in there.
“ ah, bunny. did you see something you shouldn’t have found?”devil smirked.
I opened my eyes with fear.
“what did you do to them?!”I yelled at him.
“My, my… now, hush little one.”He caught me.”I was going to let you play with them when they are ready”He started caressing my hair.
“Now ducky, you look scared “He speaks again eith hsi gentle voice.”sleep of the edge of dreams.”
As my vision faded I could feel his grin.
—————————•—————————
its my first fic and ım sorry if its cringe😂

Hey! Sorry for the question, but I was wondering where to find resources on getting into druidry/how to find a grove? I noticed you suggested not doing looking online—another thing I wondered was if it was a closed practice?
alright so this might be a long answer
i'll answer the second question first- is druidry a closed practice?
theres debate but the consensus is largely that no, it is not closed. some argue that it is semi-closed in the sense that it must be practiced only by people who have done tons of research and study on celtic history if they aren't celtic. i personally dont love this idea much, several members of my grove practice multiple religions alongside druidry like judaism or indigenous american religions. i dont feel like they should have this extra burden of proving their dedication essentially for not being white 🤷‍♂️
now- how to find a grove
first you need to know what type of druidry you are interested in. there are two main large druid organizations that i'm aware of
1) OBOD (Order of Bards Ovates and Druids)
this group is largely neopagan, focuses on welsh and british traditions, and draws heavily from arthurian mythology- although i believe their new president is an Irish woman so we'll see how that influences the order. they have a website where you can find a chapter near you.
2) ADF (Ár nDraíocht Féin or A Druid Fellowship)
this group is largely revivalist/ reconstructionist, focuses on irish traditions, and draws heavily from irish mythology. they also have a website where you can find a chapter near you.
outside of those there are of course independent groves. thats what im part of! these are more difficult to find, i would probably begin my search for one on facebook and asking around local witchy shops. lots of these groups are more informal and dont have a specific website. the advice to steer away from the internet is because you will find a lot of snake oil salesmen unfortunately.
one online source i do really highly recommend is the irish pagan school. they offer courses and online classes and guided meditations that are all extremely thorough and led by indigenous irish people. they're also launching the ogham academy which is super cool if that's something you're interested in!
for the most part youre just going to have to show up in person to a lot of places until you find somewhere that fits. also, dont be afraid of being the only druid in a different pagan group if you like that community and theyre willing to have you! i personally think that having a strong community is more important than being in a druids only club lmao
hope that helps!!!

☆ANNOUCMENT TIME!!☆
Helloooo there beautiful! How are ya?
So im posting this to give you all an annoucment about my tumblr. For the month of October, I will be doing Inktober!!
But not just any october...
~♡A COOKIE RUN KINGDOM COSTUMETOBER! ♡~
What is a crk costumetober you may ask?
Well this is an inktober challange that has been thought out by yours truly!
Since Inktober's regular prompts can get veeeery mediocre I decided to attempt making my own to satisfy and the other's Crk obsession- So all of my lovely Crk fans:
💕you are eating well this month!💕
How will this challange work?
Well as it is said in the Title, For 31 days I will be drawing one costume from cookie run kingdom. That game is notorious for incredibly scrumptious costume designs.
Mwah dilectable🤌✨💕
But don't think im just gonna be a silly little goober drawing any costume I want- Because come on, the choices are endless, I wanted to ground myself to rules:
1.You must draw at least 2 costumes from each rarity-This includes the special ones and YES BTS COUNTS TOO
2. A cookie must be drawn only once- We cannot have repeats, that would be kindaaaaa...eh just to see all the madeilines, parfaits or espressos fill my sketchbooks. Only once can they be feature in the Inktober
3.Recolors do not count- Come on, I gotta be a little mean, no shortcuts here im afraid darling! Unless the cookie has a notable difference than they CANNOT be featured! 💫Make it lively!💫
4.Last week of october (or the last 7 days) will be the more stricter- The first 5 days will be dedicated to the halloween costumes released in Crk! Because ya know- ✨S p o o k y m o n t h ✨ The 6th day is gonna dedicated to your all time favourite costume (again, it cannot be a repeated one, save it for that day) and Last day is going to be about your Crk oc/persona in a costume or if you don't have one you are allowed to create a costume for a cookie that doesn't have one!
(I can already sense the frost Queen fans- Oh god qwq)
Aaaand that's it! Those are the rules for my inktober prompt!
If you are up for more sugar, spice and everything nice in your october of ink than you are welcome to try put my crk costumetober!
If you do participate, please make sure to Credit me! Can't wait to see your creations lovelies^^
Have a beeeeeautiful day!🤍💙
(Sorry for a weeeird twist in writting- I just discovered the color tool hehehehe/silly)

WIP Whenever
was tagged by the wonderful @captastra and fabulous @the-lastcall recently-ish, sorry it's taken me a little while to get it done, i am feeling under the weather again :')
haven't got much on the go right now other than my Ghost fic, the drawing of Terzo, and some test thing im trying for Merryn, my new Warlock in Destiny 2. words and art below the cut:)
Far Away From the Stench of the Heavens:
After a little while more, Aether finally broke the silence, his voice back to normal again.
‘’So, yer Maj, you ever gonna explain to me exactly why you and Mountain decided to have the worlds most intense staring competition back there? Don’t tell me that lanky idiot is the Antichrist, because I will give up on everything if that’s the case.’’
You looked up at him in confusion, delicate features twisted as you tried to work out what he meant. You could hardly tell him that you’d once tried to kill his friend, not after he’d been so very kind to you. But at the same time, the thought of lying burned at your spirit like acid. You decided instead to give him a question of your own. If he told the truth, so would you.
‘’I don’t know. You ever gonna explain what exactly the deal is with you and Omega? Because there’s no way that kind of anger comes just from a stupid joke, none whatsoever.’’
You paused for a second, frowning thoughtfully.
‘’And why would it matter if Mountain was the Antichrist. How would I even know?’’
Aether gave you a strange look, like it was obvious how you would know, which only served to confuse you further.
‘’Alright then, keep your secrets, your Highness. I’m sure you’ll find out mine and Omegas after you’ve been here a little while, gossip is the preferred pastime of so many Siblings here, after all. As for the Antichrist thing, maybe I’m not the best guy to explain that to you. If we have time tonight, I’ll see about taking you to someone who can explain, deal?’’
You nodded, unsurprised by his unwillingness to explain the animosity, but also refusing to judge, seeing as you were doing the exact same thing.
Dead Woman Walking:
Merryn rolled her eyes, an exasperated sigh hissing its way from between those unearthly lips. Devrim shifted from one foot to the other slightly, uncomfortable. It felt like he was seeing something secret, that wasn't meant for the eyes of a mere human. The reluctant Guardian was talking again, tone dripping with fury. Despite his better judgement, Devrim couldn't help but listen.
''You think this is a blessing?? You think that I would ever choose something like this for myself, that I'd choose to be some awful puppet of that damn Traveler?! I don't give a damn how long you were looking for me, I want you to put me back! Go find someone else! I am not playing this fucking game, you worthless bundle of scrap metal!''
The Ghost was saying something in response, trying its best to sooth the furious Awoken, but it didn't seem to be working. In all his years at the Farm and just the EDZ in general, Devrim had never seen anyone react like this to becoming a Guardian. Sure, you got the odd one who was afraid, or confused, but never anyone actively furious to have been brought back. He wondered about the life Merryn had left behind. It must have been special, if she was this angry at losing it.
Though, now that he thought about it, didn't Guardians lose all memories of their pasts when they were brought back? To avoid this kind of thing? Something must have gone wrong then, if she remembered enough to be angry. Very wrong.
Terzo WIP:
Tumblr media
mmm so blurry and unfinished. alas, artblock means he will go unfinished for a while yet:')
no pressure tags: @toyapandora @the-laridian @strangefable @purplehairsecretlair and anyone else with anything to share, consider this me tagging you too:)

me: im fine
me im my head: I itch. All the time. Deep beneath my skin, where the bone sits, enshrined in flesh, I feel it. Something, not moving but that wants to move. Wants to be free. It itches, and I don’t think I want it. I don’t know what to do. You can’t help me. I don’t think so, at least. But whatever it is that calls to me, that wants me for its own, it hates you. It hates what you are and what you do. And if it hates you, then maybe you can help me. If I wanted to be helped. I don’t know if I do. You must understand, it sings so sweetly, and I need it, but I am afraid. It isn’t right and I need help. I need it to be seen. To be seen in the cold light of knowledge is anathema to the things that crawl and slither and swarm in the corners and the cracks. In the pitted holes of the hive. You can’t see it, of course. It isn’t real. Not like you or I are real. It’s more of an everywhere. A feeling. Are you familiar with trypophobia? That disgusted fear at holes, irregular, honeycombed holes. Makes you feel that itch in the back of your mind, like the holes are there too, in your own brain, rotten and hollow and swarming. Is that real? I’m sorry, I know I’m meant to be telling you what happened. What brought me to this place. This place of books and learning, of sight and beholding. I’m sorry. I should. I will. I… I haven’t slept in some time. I can’t sleep. My dreams are crawling and many-legged. Not just slithering and burrowing, though it is the burrowing that draws me. They always sing that song of flesh. I hope you will forgive me for such a rambling story. I hope you will forgive me for a great many things, as it may be I do worse. I have that feeling, that instinct that squirms through your belly. There will be great violence done here. And I bleed into that violence. Do you know, I wonder? As I watch you sitting there through the glass. Eating a sandwich. Do you know where you are? You called me “dear”. “Have a seat, dear.” “You can write it down, dear.” “Take as much time as you need, dear.” Can you truly know the danger you are in? There is a wasps’ nest in my attic.

Hello!!! I saw your tags on a post and I'm so sorry but I simply must be nosey about your circus dnd character and their changeling partner 👀👀👀 please tell me more about them!!! (Only if you're comfortable of course!!)
OMG!! yes absolutely!! ok mild rant ahead aksjldh
So his name is Dorathel Lefevbre (Dolly as a nickname) he's a sheep themed tiefling! his dad was a sheppard so he grew up arround sheep a lot and he got picked up by the circus after an angry mob burned down his house (and potentially parents) cause they were dumb and afraid and thought they were raising a demon he was lk 9 he didnt actually SEE them die but he also hasnt been back to his home town ever since cause untill he sees the graves they might still be alive so BUT yeah the circus is awesome its all feywild themed! theres a hag, a watter nympth a centaur, all kinds of fun stuff! the owner of the circus used to be lk royalty in the feywild but moved over and brought some of his friends to start a circus cause no one was impressed by magic over there Dorathel is a tight rope walker and sword swallower glamor bard, and his partner is Zazel or Zee for short(they/them), a changeling who also got a kinda shit life, their parents were dopplegangers who used zazel to scam people and tried to sell them to the circus for profit so the circus owner actually said yes to get them out of that shitty situation They re a bit older than dorathel but they became really good friends and then lovers and grew up together as an acting duo! doing stunts and acrobatic stuff together! Zazel is a swords bard/rogue multiclass and they re a knife thrower (so lots of performances together of them throwing knives and dorathel being the assistant) they re very much incredibly in love lk they re THAT annoying couple just being obnoxious over how much they love each other asjkdad they ve also broken each other out of jail a few times for getting into trouble the circus leader disapeared out of nowhere, left only his jacket that he wears now everywhere, so Dorathel's main mission in a campaign whenever i play him will be to look for clues for what happened while Zazel stays at the circus shapeshifting into the leader to keep up appearances and keep the show going. They ve talked about getting married but want it to be special so they both agreed to bet on who can make the most over dramatic insane proposal first askjd with the leader back to officiate them/walk them down the isle! i already got their wedding outfits ready and all! Dorathel is gonna spend all the time just either using Sending every day to check on them or just constnatly write letters back and forth akjsd have some art of them! ps! the golden ribbon thing they both have on the tail and neck, is made from 2 halfs of the first ticket they ever sold for their act together! this way they re always together (and dorathel can recognize Zazel no matter what shape they take <3)

thats mostly it i think! dorathel was my first ever dnd character and has gone through a lot of changes across the years, i put a lot of my self in him and its been a really great way to explore gender expression so he really means a lot to me, and its super fun to have 2 ocs super in love for whenever i wanna draw wholesome content, currently in a campaign with a different character cause it fit better thematically, so i cant wait to play with Dorathel one day! <3 hope you enjoy it and thank you again for asking! i draw nearly exclusively my own dnd characters so im always down to talk about them to whoever is interested ^^ (do feel free to dm me if you wanna/are comfortable to talk about any character of yours i d love to hear about them as well!)

Congrats!!! I discovered you right at the beginning of my obsession for Paul Dano and I have to admit, it's rare that I follow a person! Your writing is so captivating, I didn't want to miss your writings. When you started showing interest in Eddie Munson, I was a little disappointed and was afraid you were going to give up on Dano completely, buuuuuuut… I fell in love with Munson, of course. And realized that no matter what characters you like, I'm going to keep following you. You are part of my daily life and you have a place in my heart!
I choose… THE JETSET LIFE IS GOING TO KILL YOU (stranger things please ~) (and i will be back tomorrow with an another request hehe <3)
The first impression I give is not positive, according to my friends, colleagues and classmates, I look angry and cold. My gothic/metal/i dontknowbutitsalt style doesn't help me. Yet, I am pretty cheerful and have an easy laugh. I am happy to be here !
I am very nervous and anxious, my primary emotion is fear. I am afraid of death, storms, infinity, space, in short, my partner must accept that I am Shaggy AND Scooby.
It's hard to get my trust. It makes me feel like a princess in a castle that is protected by a dragon. One mistake and it's death, one wrong move and there's no going back, the trust is lost forever. And when it comes to my love life, oof… I'm demisexual, it's a bit impossible to win my heart. I'm looking for a Gomez Addams (AND I WILL FIND HIM).
I have BPD. My mood swings are drastic, it is not easy to live with this disorder (for others and for me). I tend to push away people who want to get to know me or give me affection, because I am afraid of abandonment, but I am also afraid of hurting them.
I spend my free time writing, drawing, sewing, knitting and crocheting! … and playing Stardew Valley. No, I won't say how many hours I have at this game, it's terrifying.
(Im French Canadian, sorry for mistakes ><)
first of all... let me say, my goodness! thank you for your kind words <3 you are truly so sweet, so thank you so so much for sticking around with my blog, even passed my dano writings im so incredibly glad to hear that you enjoy my work!!! thank youuu so so so much <3
as for a stranger things matchup: im going to have to say eddie! for starters i think he would totally feel you on the "not positive" first impression thing (which i also totally get too lmao one of my friends recently told me he's wanted to be my friend since he first met me but always put off talking to me because i "looked angry" LMAOO) But yeah, no a lot of people think eddie is "scary" at first glance but it turns out underneath that he's a total sweetheart! so, on that front- you two will definitely know what it feels like to be judged as something you're not at first glance.
secondly, you say you have issues with trust, which is why i think eddie would be a good match for you, as we can see in szn 4 he's like, incredibly loyal to his friends, and he really cares about them a lot, he is not the type to ever get close to breaking your trust once he has it, he's the kind of guy that wants to earn your trust and keep it.
on the anxiety front too, he's also a great partner! while clearly being skittish at times himself, he does seem to try to make the people around him comfortable! for instance, the drug deal scene with chrissy: she's clearly nervous but eddie takes to lightening the mood, he makes her laugh and doesn't take himself too seriously and overall really just helps relieve any of the intensity in the air!
also- eddie would think your hobbies are totally cool, especially in regards to sewing! you could help him with his battle jackets, or patch pants,and DIY-ing his clothes since that's a huge part of the scene!
overall i think of the stranger things characters, eddie would be your best match! :) i hope you are satisfied with your match and again, thank you dearly for your kind kind words <33
this request was part of my 1.5k celebration, want to join? look here!

How did you get into animation? Im 23 and feel its too late to get into it
HI HI HI!! So sorry I'm responding to this so late! I had work yesterday and I have been so tired out from the physical labor, on top of other personal drama I don't want to delve into.
To answer your question, I'm still trying to get into the animation industry, so I'm not a certified professional yet. Emphasis on YET. I will be turning 25 in 5 months and I still haven't had the job opportunity come my way. So if you think age has any factor in getting into the career: rest assured that age has no limit in this industry. To get further into detail, I'll add a read more about the intricacies that I've learned from the animation industry so far <3
So the animation experience varies from person to person. I've had friends who started their careers with big studios right after we all graduated art school by age 22. You have people like me who are still looking for a job in the industry by age 24, and show no signs of stopping. I've seen plenty of artists over 30 and 40 barely getting their foot in the door into the career. Don't let these young content creators or success stories of infamous show runners make you think you're too late to get started in animation!
As an example: J.G. Quintel ,the creator of Regular Show, took what I believe was 10 years to get started at Cartoon Network after graduating from CALarts, and spent those 10 years after graduating working retail and register jobs.
Consider your factors in life. For me, I grew up with a town that never favored the arts, so I thankfully had the financial support to go to an art school in California for a couple of years to expand and improve the skills I previously had. DO NOT THINK THAT GOING TO ART SCHOOL IS A MUST! Plenty of artists in this career have gotten successful without ever having went to college. Unless you think you need it and you have the money, then start researching where you'd want to attend, look at the intuition and alumni reviews and etc.
As far as portfolio advice goes, my professors have taught me one thing I keep in mind: ✨QUALITY OVER QUANTITY✨. You can have a small and dingy or big and fancy portfolio, but recruiters will not care. As long as you have the skill they're looking for, that's all that matters. Do not be afraid to draw something outside of your comfort zone - flexibility in your skills is a bonus. Anatomy and cafè/life drawings are a must to show companies you know how to draw humans and animals. Most importantly, try to cater to the specific job in the industry you want to aim for. If you're looking to only be a storyboard artist, show thumbnails, rough sketches, and your own animatics/storyboards projects. And vice versa appplies for the other positions out there.
My last pieces of advice: DO. NOT. GIVE. UP. This profession relies on passion, optimism, resilience, preservation, and determination. The second you give up, it's over. Obviously this doesn’t mean you can't draw for yourself or take a break; but do not get discouraged from being denied or ignored from the opportunities you apply to, that you don't see the point in it anymore. These, at this time, are extremely common, but they aren't a reflection of you as an artist or as a person. This is why you constantly need to practice as much as you can, thus going back to never giving up. That way, when you apply again, you'll be better than you were before, improving your chances of getting hired even more.
Do not worry about your age and thinking that it's too late for you. In this industry, it's never too late to start your career regardless of your age. Stay vigilant, do not give up, and always practice on improving your drawing skills! I hope this helps and I wish you the best of luck in your endeavor 💖 here's to one day working with each other🌸
