Glisten & Glow, Love Me Like You Do (Love Songs Trio Volume 4)
I forgot to take a picture when they were fresh, but this is a smooth polish. 2 to 3 coats is good. It is slightly opaque but the matte really makes it stand out. 10/10 will use again and try some toppers with it!

[GIFTED] I was lucky enough to swatch the Gotta Love Summer collection by @threeheartspolish, which is available from January 11. Here you can see a collection of crellies with bright glitters and one magical glitter topper that I swatched over black, white and my bare nails. These polishes varied from 2-3 coats because I have long nails, but I feel like most would be 2 coaters if you have shorter nails. The opacity was out of this world - not patchy or streaky. It built up without feeling thick on my nails. These polishes are so easy to work with. The glitters are thin and had no texture once I applied my top coat. I used a peel off base coat so clean up was a breeze. I LOVED swatching these and I ended up having a favourite that I didn't even think I'd like that much when I first saw it because I don't usually gravitate to those colours. I was wrong. It's gorgeous.

ladrien fic recs!
there are SO MANY amazing ladrien fics i cant possibly cover them all but here are a few!
(all the ratings used are ao3 ratings)
((this is a very long post!))
FLUFF
Of Ivy and Sunlight by cyanise [ T, 1509 words, 1/1 ]
When Adrien takes to wandering the streets of Paris in ungodly hours, Ladybug has no choice but to keep an eye on him. Still, things are bound to get a little out of hand between two overloaded teenagers with a lot of love and not enough self-control.
a lovely post-chat blanc fic :’) it has a great flow and is just soft and so sweet and it’s just perfect. gosh i cannot really say more other than read it!!! also almost all of their other stuff is also ladrien so do check it out!
This can't be happening by PlaPla [ T, 6,467 words, 1/2 ]
Ladybug is unsure whether accompanying Adrien to a gala as his not-date is the best or worst thing that has ever happened to her. But when their table mates turn out to be none other than her long time friends Alya and Nino and with Adrien acting weirder and weirder she finds herself with bigger worries than an unrequited crush.
a djwifi/ladrien double date? hit me up! i love identity shenanigans, ball dancing, ladrien, and djwifi and this is a perfect mix for me. i know it’s incomplete but it doesn’t end in a cliff-hanger really, the part 2 is just a promise of more so it doesn’t feel incomplete! PlaPla also has a short oneshot of ladrien going for a motorcycle ride.
Falling again by emsylcatac [ M, 4,506 words, 2 Works ]
They had been dancing around each other for a while now, and while fifteen year old Adrien would have been ecstatic at the idea of dating Ladybug in secret, twenty-two year old Adrien knew better. But Ladybug wasn’t making it easy. It was like… she, too, was falling for him. And that surprisingly enough, she didn’t mind.
* * *
Or Adrien trying (and failing) to keep things professional between him and Ladybug when the two of them partner up for a mission. Older AU
things are a little steamy~ here (don’t worry, it’s only implied it’s very mild and closer to a T rating than the M) but it’s a great mature take on their dynamics! emsy has more ladrien one-shots in her collection of one-shots!
i'd love to go on a date with you by sae_what [ G, 6,480 words, 1/1 ]
Once it had been falsely announced throughout Paris that Adrien and Ladybug are in a relationship, Ladybug pays him a visit to turn him down gently.
Only, she doesn’t. And instead, she has a formal dinner date. With Adrien. At 8 pm. Tonight.
LADYBUG IN A SUIT!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaa. okay but for real it’s so sweet and also??? they are on a date!!! a rooftop date!! (too man exclamation marks oops)
Always Welcome by chatonne-rousse [ T, 1,683 words, 1/1 ]
Ladybug knows that Adrien's window is always open for her to swing by and stop in, whether for video games or a chat or, like tonight, for soft kisses and sweet nothings.
He loves these visits. His girlfriend is always welcome. Always. (Especially for kisses.)
Written for Ladrien June, day 8: bluebell eyes.
established relationship, pre-reveal ladrien. there is something very home-y about this fic and it’s all about the comfort and quiet that i adore about it!
Five Times Gabriel Agreste Caught Ladybug in His Son’s Bedroom (and the One Time He Caught Chat Noir) by agrestenoir [ T, 1,923 words, 1/1]
Gabriel Agreste keeps finding Ladybug in his son's bedroom. As a super villain and father, this will not stand.
this crack fic is... honestly so hilarious. it’s all through gabrie-i-am-trying-to-parent-and-failing-a-lot-agreste’s POV so it is so much ridiculous!
an uncurtain discovery by Missnoodles [ T, 4,684 words, 1/1 ]
When he returns from school on Wednesday afternoon, Adrien discovers the darkness in his own home. He struggles to come to terms with it. To his utter mortification and delight, Ladybug is nearby to rescue him.
(He does not discover that his father is supervillain. That will happen on a different Wednesday.)
Adrien is being a cat and gets tangled in the curtains on his window and it’s utterly ridiculous. all the bug and the cat tendencies make it funnier and adrien’s inner monologue is just a cherry on top!
secret valentine by a_miiraculer [ T, 12,245 words, 1/1 ]
this is the moment that we will come alive
brace yourself for love
sweet love, secret love
If Adrien had known that getting himself stuck in a tree would end like this, he would've gotten himself stuck sooner.
A drabble series.
i just,,,, don’t have words for how much i love it! it’s ridiculous, it’s cute, it’s funny, it’s whole-some and just ladrien. the writer also has a M rated multi-chapter ladrien kissing (no the M is very much real here) and a heroic adrien and ladybug one-shot too!
Those Benevolent Stars by peachcitt [ G, 23,696 words, 3/3 ]
“Will you come back?”
She looked up at the deep blue sky, as if she could somehow find the answer there. “I shouldn’t,” she said, shaking her head and looking back at him. But the stars were still there, caught in her eyes, and Adrien persisted.
“But will you?”
or
adrien meets his soulmate, a thief who calls herself ladybug. he falls for her, but she seems determined to maintain a space between them.
oh my god this au.... just no words!! it’s poetry and it’s tender and it’s about the yearning and just!!! perfect :’). Her current ongoing ladrien june fic is also akin to this (and the fic i linked before it) so do check it out too! (literally check out all of their works it’s so beautiful)
Flowers on the Window Sill by LNC [ G, 2,144 words, 1/1 ]
The first time Ladybug saw him, really saw him, the universe stopped.
this fic feels like poetry and it’s so lovely. LNC is always short and direct but it always hits right in the feels while also being hilarious. Her other ladrien works are just as good and i highly recommend going through them because it fulfills all of the ladrien needs (along with Reiaji)
whatever a sun will always sing is you by komorebirei [ T, 32,980 words, 37/37 ]
“I didn't think you'd actually... do anything," Adrien admitted, cheeks prickling with warmth. "I-I mean, I never expected... I didn't know you watched my interviews.” That definitely wasn’t how he'd imagined confessing to Ladybug.
“Of course I do!” Ladybug squeaked. “Uhh, that is…” She looked down at her hands, nervously turning her yo-yo over, over and over. “Maybe you’re not the only one with a crush.”
(After an unexpected confession, Ladybug and Adrien start dating in secret. A progressive character- and relationship-study quilted from drabbles, with the intention of digging treasure out of the cove that is Ladrien. Written using kashimalin-fanfiction's kiss writing prompts from Tumblr.)
it does such an excellent job at exploring this dynamic along with the characters. it’s such a sweet fic, each chapter short and fun!
ANGST
whose woods these are (I think I know.) by Reiaji [ T, 105,000 words, 25/25 ]
Four years after his future turns to cinders, Adrien is a servant in the house he was meant to inherit. Disowned by his father and abused by his stepmother, his days are filled with drudgery until he meets a masked huntress in the forest behind his father's chateau.
As his friendship with Ladybug turns to first love, he dreams of a future spent at her side.
Then, on the eve of the Princess's masquerade, he meets his guardian—and is granted a wish.
[Ladrien Cinderella AU]
Warnings: Child abuse, Graphic depiction of violence
this is absolutely gorgeous. it has so many troupes and so many amazing character arc and great build up and everything just flows so well. it left me in awe for weeks and i just. want to experience reading it for the first time again. look at this gorgeous art inspired by this! {and you have to read leonard bernstein too because LETTERS and LADRIEN and YEARNING}
i would do it again (oh, a thousand times) by bugabisous [ T, 2,266 words, 1/1 ]
Knowing you can bring someone back doesn’t mean you’re free of the pain of seeing them disappear before your eyes. He can’t imagine he’ll be able to look at her directly without replaying every horrifying moment when he felt her slip away in a puff of smoke.
When it happens once again, he already knows he’ll be trying again. He just can’t give up.
it expands on adrien’s feelings in the episode desperada (my beloved <3) and it is just ouch. such great angst, such great potential. the kind of tragedy that it offers is unusual for ml (it gets only rivaled by chat blanc tbh). to rival this angst bugabisous also has a fluffy one-shot :)
when the world gets too heavy (put it on my back) by Taliax [ T, 4,720 words, 1/1 ]
Chat Noir isn't allowed to cry over his father. But even when he's just Adrien, Ladybug won't abandon him.
Hawkmoth reveal hurt/comfort + Ladrien
the plagg and adrien bond written is just perfect, and oh this hits right in the feels :’) it hurts all in the right way. tali also has so many other ladrien works in all genres too
By Your Side by omniousunflower [ T, 4,361 words, 1/1 ]
(Angry and alone, Adrien waits on top of the Eiffel Tower for his lady.)
“So, how did my kitty get stranded up here?” Ladybug asks.
Groaning, Adrien pulls his knees toward his chest and presses his face against them. “Because he’s stupid and impulsive.”
“Chasing pigeons, then?”
“No.” Shame burns in Adrien’s veins, white-hot now that Ladybug is here to witness his stupidity. “I threw my Miraculous, and Plagg wouldn’t get it for me.”
post-hawkmoth defeat, and adrien is not doing well at all. i am cheating because it is post reveal, pre relationship but it’s still ladrien. this fic is a roller coater of emotions, starting from a slightly crack scenario to a cute, awkward, hopeful ending. More Than You Know is another of sunny’s angsty ladrien work!
Breaking The Rules (AKA The Ladrien Fistfight) by ThisKwamiNeeds_aNap [ T, 8,714 words, 1/1 ]
Marinette may or may not be dying, but she’s still going to do her best to fix every single problem in the world. She’s not expecting Adrien to be the one who tries to stop her.
(Takes place immediately after Kwami Buster)
Warnings: panic attack, broken bones, PTSD. please read the tags!
*slaps this fic* this fic can fit in so much angst. it just?? left me in PAIN oof. it says ‘ladrien fistfight’ on the lid but nooo there is marinette is just having a freak out and it’s all so much??!! and it’s not just marinette there is adrien too and chloe and alya and- wow it’s amazing. love it so much it fills up my angst needs :’)
so that’s it for now! my personal commentary isn’t impressive nor does it do justice to the fic but i still hope you read a few of these!! happy reading!!
#ladren#fic rec#ml fic rec#miraculous ladybug#i know i dont do the fics justice but. oh well#lovesquare#ladrien#obviously check out the writers other workd too but this is ladrien so i am trying to give it a bit more emphasis#also i am so sorry i couldnt include more lesser known writers but unfortunatley they dont have ladrien uRGH anyway maybe sometime later!#i spend a lot of time on thi n got lazy so plz be considerate#also add recs if u want even self-promo is cool duh

🖇Faded to beige pt.2 (taeyong)
MASTERLIST
PARTS: | 01 | 02 | 03 |
HYBRID PROFILES
GENRE: Hybrid AU!, 1960′s, Drama, Future fluff
QUOTE:“Your fingers burned across his flesh, the gentle patter of your fingertips leaving him abuzz.”
WARNINGS: Blood, Injury
February 22nd - 1964
You slowly swirled the stale tea with the ivory teaspoon they had provided you. Your glum self was reflected in the tan liquid. Your pepped and curled hair peaked beneath your pillbox hat while blush stained pearls hung around your neck, complimenting the pink two-piece set you wore.
Your Aunt subtlety nudged you with the wedge of her shoe, your eyes flickered briefly towards her. She gave you one of her looks. The one that translated to stop what you were doing. You gently laid the teaspoon against the saucer, slouching back into your chair.
Two days had passed since the ordeal at the circus. You had foolishly thought that the spectacle of the hybrid escaping would be long forgotten. After all, socialites like your Aunt and the Bradley’s gossiped only until the next scandalized story came along. Yet, the tale of the escaped hybrid remained piping hot.
You accompanied your Aunt to brunch with the Bradley’s. The exclusive dining was invite-only, the Bradley’s hiring an entire room for the occasion.
The waiters stood close, their hands idle as they waited for a request. This place had its appeal. It conveyed indulgence, an opulence of a higher manner.
“What are those?” Someone from the party demanded.
The poor waitress redden under the abundance of eyes. She hugged a collection of newspapers against her chest.
“Answer me girl.”
“We were instructed by Mr. Cooper that the newspaper was to be brought in case anyone wanted to read one.” Another employee stepped in to answer.
Mrs. Bradely unimpressed, raised her thinly carved eyebrow, “Hurry up girl! Hand them out then.”
“Yes, ma’am.” She took a shaky step but nobody raised a hand for a newspaper.
“I’ll take one,” You spoke up.
She nodded furiously, placing one in you outstretch hand before scuttering away.
“Since when do you read the paper?” Your Aunt leaned in, her hand masking her mouth.
You shrugged, unfolding it. Your finger traced the wrinkled page, the bolden script catching your eye.
The murderous snow leopard hybrid escapes killing its trainer and injuring five others.
Your mouth dried.
Killed? Your thoughts returned Taeyong and his bloodstained face. How hadn’t it occurred to you before? You had aided a killer.
“Ferocious creature, to believe we saw it moments before it attacked its trainer.”
“The beast deserves to be put down.” Said another.
You looked over your newspaper. “Will they do that? Truly?”
Surprised stares turned your way.
“Put it down? I see why not.”
“As soon as the officials capture it of course.” One answered.
“I heard they are offering a handsome reward too.” Someone else contributed.
A sickening feeling washed over you.
───
Rain droplets fell from the grey skies. The concert was damp under his shoeless feet. Taeyong pulled the hood of his beige coater higher, ignoring the growl of his stomach.
He aimlessly roamed. The city a never-ending maze. Buildings stories high soared over him as noisy cars speed by.
Taeyong flinched, staring down. His blistered feet had stepped on a shard of glass. He leaned down to dig it out. The rain increased in momentum, an icy gust nearly toppling him over. Taeyong tried to shake away the cold but he continued to tremble.
Cold, hungry with nowhere to go. He was just as pitiful as he was back in his cage.
Taeyong took shelter in a shopfront, crouching by the door. He wrapped his soaked sleeves around his body and lowered his head on top.
He was thankful for the coat as without it he would be far worse.
“Y/N” He mouthed your name aloud. A sweet longing in his words.
───
You lowered your umbrella, shaking it to get rid of the excess moisture. You let it dry in the hallway as you dug out a card key. You swiped the card, the hotel suite buzzing open. You let out a long overdue sigh. You were free at last.
You threw your pillow hat aside and unpinned your curls. You ran your hands through your hair, massaging the tension from your scalp. Next, you unfastened the pearls and kicked of the skirt until it pooled at your ankles.
The rain spat violently against the terrace, upturning the cushions from the outdoor sunchairs. A lonesome fern plant tapped its branch against the stained glass.
You shivered, rubbing your goose risen flesh as you surveyed the grey clouds that lurked above. Your mind drifted to the snow leopard. Had he managed to find somewhere to rest? Was he still about in this weather?
You shook away your thoughts. He had killed someone, you reminded yourself.
You steped onto the mattress which laid central on the floor. You lifted the white duvet and sunk under the covers. Your hotel suite had little furniture besides a mattress, bookcase, and a desk. Your Aunt had initially told you to fill out the room with whatever you liked. Your monthly allowance would be more than enough to cover it. Yet, spending someone else’s money had always left a bad taste in your mouth.
You shut your eyelids, listening to the angry howl of the wind. Your Aunt would leave for the country club tomorrow morning, leaving you to your own devices. It would be a first, since you had arrived to the city. How would you pass the time?
───
The ashen skies faded into a muted orange. Taeyong raised his hand to deter the glare. Sunlight trickled between his fingers, warming the wet skin of his forehead. A new day had arrived.
Men and women dressed in suits and skirts brushed past avoiding eye contact. They carried briefcases and purses, preoccupied with their busy lives.
Taeyong licked his cracked lips the subtle smell of baked goods whoofing up his nostrils. His stomach rumbled, void of food. He used his strength to push himself off the pavement, remembering to adjust his hood to ensure his ears remained covered. His feet dragged, as he peeked into the store.
He paused at the sight of a display cabinet, inside laid an assortment of breads and cakes. His grimy fingers pressed closer, pushing his face forward until his nose was squashed against the glass. He could smell the wheat, the yeast, the eggs. His mouth watered. Taeyong spied on the people inside the store. A lady peeled away the brown paper taking a bite out of her treat. Her companion reached for his pocket pulling out some golden change. He handed it the employee in the apron before heading off.
Taeyong swallowed, looking down at his own pockets. He dipped his hands into both but found nothing.
───
You hummed, your hands resting behind your back as you strolled through the store. You examined the paint supplies, the canvas’ and ink. The craft store was somewhere you had always wanted to visit but couldn't because of your Aunt. She held no value in creative endeavors and would always scoff at your interest.
“Do you need any assistance miss?”
You peered up from the stencils. There stood a man wearing a pinch front fedora, his hair underneath was slicked back and his suit was neatly ironed.
“Not at all,” You politely dismissed, “Just browsing.”
You attempted to pass but he extended an arm, “My name is Mino.”
You glanced down at his hand, you bowed slightly exchanging a handshake, “Y/N”.
His face glowed, “It’s lovely to make your acquaintance.”
“Likewise.” You stepped aside.
“What were you interested in?” He followed.
“I’m not sure.”
“How about this?” He lifted a pack of triangular pencils.
You narrowed your eyes, “Do you work here?”
He chuckled, “No, I just wanted to strike up a conversation.”
Mino carried on his recommendations.
You decided on charcoal pencils and sketching paper, more so to get Mino to stop his badgering. You paid swiping your card and signing your receipt. You exited the store, Mino still on your heels.
“How about I buy you a cup of coffee,” He pointed ahead at a bakery, “They sell pastries too.”
He took you silence as an acceptance to his proposal. “Excellent then.”
You were about to hail a taxi and cut your interaction with Mino short when your eyes caught a familiar beige coat.
Taeyong?
You forgot about Mino or anyone else and took off towards the man facing the sign of the bakery.
You enclosed both of your hands around his sleeves and twirled him to face you. Those yellowish-blue eyes met yours, suprised etched across his features.
Taeyong felt your light touch, his mouth trembled as he saw you. His hunger vanished, a warmth pooling into his stomach.
He studied you and the beautiful curves of your face. The the key-lime green eyeshadow that accentuated the color of your eyes. The form-fitting cardigan and checkered mini skirt.
His eyes lingered on the goosebumps on your legs, without thinking he began removing his coat in an attempt to wrap it around you instead.
You stopped him, promptly tugging the hood back over his ears. “What are you doing?” Your voice came off as a scowl.
“You’re cold.” He replied simply.
Your face softened, “I’m fine,” You assured.
“Y/N? Who's this?” Mino jogged towards you.
Taeyong grasped your wrist, pulling you behind his frame. He let out a hiss which made Mino fall back.
You quickly linked hands with Taeyong, squeezing him.
“Please excuse my friend, he isn’t feeling too well.” You spouted a lie, “Come on, let us get you home.” You dragged Taeyong behind you, leaving the stunned Mino gaping.
Friend? Home?
Taeyong eased his footing, making it easier for you to pull him along. He didn’t dare speak in fear you’d let him go.
Instead, he concentrated on the way your hair bounced behind you and the heat your hand radiated whilst tied to his.
You took Taeyong back to your hotel. You approached the assistance desk where the rabbit hybrid greeted you, your key card already present in his hands.
Taeyong peered from underneath the hood, his sights falling upon the fellow hybrid. The hybrid stiffened while Taeyong tightened his hold on your hand.
You rode the lift in silence, every so often you’d glance at Taeyong’s naked feet. His feet were swollen and covered in filth.
“How long have you been walking around without any shoes?” The question fell from your lips.
Taeyong followed your gaze, “I’ve never worn shoes before.”
He couldn’t quite read the flicker of emotion that washed over you.
“Come on, let’s get you cleaned up.” Your voice came out rougher.
Your were itching to get him into something warm but first, you had to scrub off the grim and patch up his feet.
Taeyong stopped in awe of your hotel suite, as minimal as it was it was a lot nicer than anything he was use too. You took him into the bathroom, flicking the light switch on. Taeyong jumped at the sudden heat that radiated from the ceiling above.
“Please sit,” You referred to the small stool by the porcelain bathtub.
He did as he was told, not missing how you had said the word, please.
He eyed as you filled the bathtub, testing the water with the back of your hand. You twisted the knob to cease the water’s flow. You then crouched in front of him, your sweet self only inches from him. You carefully slid the coat off his shoulders revealing his torso. Your fingers burned across his flesh, the gentle patter of your fingertips leaving him abuzz.
You scanned his bruised body, a gasp stuck in your throat. You traced of the largest of scars, what looked like a claw slicing into his chest.
“Does it hurt?”
He titled his head. “Not anymore.”
He saw your lips quiver as if you wanted to ask more but you swallowed your words reaching for a washcloth.
“Does it disgust you?”
You dipped the cloth into the warm water. “No,” You squeezed the excess water.
“Does it scare you?”
You dabbed the cloth across his collar bone getting rid of the dried blood. You had a feeling he wasn’t just speaking about the scar.
“No, it doesn’t scare me”
Taeyong’s chest rumbled, appreciative of your answer.
You moved to wash his back. You audible gulped, unable to contain your horror. Angry lesions were slashed into the swollen flesh while lacerations overlapped, healing ones.
“What did they do to you?”
Taeyong tried to pry you away, but you weaseled out of his grip.
“Y/N?” Shame layered in his voice.
You disappeared out of the bathroom but quickly returned with bandages and ointment.
“Try to stay still,”
Taeyong hadn’t a chance to respond as you pressed the damp cloth over his wound. A growl escaped, his fingernails digging into the stool as you washed his back.
“This is going to sting but it will prevent infection.” You uncapped the ointment and slathered it across.
Taeyong cursed and fidgeted. In return, you whispered and soothed. He eventually relaxed, taking long staggered breaths.
“It’s nearly over,” You unraveled a roll of bandages, circling them around his torso, shoulders, and back.
Once he was covered, you worked on his feet. You spunged them clean, with the warm bathwater. You used the same ointment to tend to the blisters.
“That should be the last of it,” You pointed to your work.
Taeyong was about to stand assuming you were done when you pushed him back down.
You soaked a new towel and ruffled his hair. You used your fingers to comb out any knots. Lastly, you stroked gently across his ears.
A purr escaped from Taeyang's mouth, his eyelids fluttering.
The sound made your cheeks flush, such a beautiful shade he was all too tempted to brush against it.
“I’m done.” You cleared your throat.
He didn’t reply, still debating if you’d allow him to touch your cheek.
“Would you like something to eat?”
Taeyong had almost forgotten how hungry he was. A smile crept on his face as he nodded enthusiastically.
───
Taeyong lay on his side, his figure curled into a ball. You sketched with charcoal, smudging the shadows of his cheekbones. His eyes were shut, his nose adorably scrunched as he slept upon your mattress.
You sat at your desk, a lamp your only source of light. The curtains were drawn to prevent the afternoon sun from disturbing Taeyong’s slumber. After his meal of porridge and honey, he fell in a heap on your bed. You had tucked him under the covers, wriggling a pillow underneath his head.
Taeyong rolled on his bandaged back, letting out a cry. You dropped your sketching paper, crawling on the mattress to tilt him back onto his side. As you touched his arm, he jerked awake his hand flying for your neck. He pinned you down his thumb pressing down on your windpipe.
“Taeyong,” You chocked.
Taeyong’s face shifted, his eyes widening. “Y/N?” He loosened his grip immediately.
“I’m sorry,” He spilled, he hadn’t meant to hurt someone, especially not you. “I’m so sorry.”
You coughed, rubbing where his hand had been. “It’s okay,” You inhaled.
Taeyong lowered himself shamefully back onto the mattress. Silence came between you both.
“Did I startle you?” You finally spoke.
“I’m so sorry.” He repeated.
What did they do to you Taeyong? Your heart bled.
“I know.” You moved to lay beside him.
“Do you hate me?”
“No.”
Taeyong searched your face, you didn’t appear to be lying.
Unexpectedly, he wrapped around you, pulling himself closer. He hid his face in the nape of your neck whispering sweet nothings against your skin.
You softened, absently stroking the back of his head until he fell asleep.

It’s been a while let’s update the new shows I watched in 2019.
Bluff city…???: I didn’t even finish the first episode. For me familiar faces and good actors are not enough to keep me watching. Maybe I’ll go back and watch it at a later date. Let’s be honest, I’ve already forgotten what it’s called. (Canceled)
Evil: Such a roller coater ride with this show. I loved it in the beginning because of the subject mater. It’s a do you believe in miracles’ ponder. And then I lost interest.
Mixed-ish: I’ve seen one episode. I had to do a Google search to find out if it’s been canceled or not. Like I said before I went off the- ish franchise slowly. (Canceled)
Prodigal son: It’s a shame, I liked it. I mean I get it, but still. (Canceled)
Stumptown: Loved it sad to see it go. (Canceled)
The Politician: Still haven’t gotten round to watching season 2. It’s on my to watch list.
Carol’s second act: The show was funny I thought. It might also have half to do with the loveable familiar faces. (Canceled)
Sunnyside: So this show was good in parts. I liked the premise of it. I’m not really surprised to be honest it only got 1 season. (Canceled)
All rise: Damn it man, I loved this show so much. (Canceled)

Hi i love your story hyde's long way home it was a roller coaters it was amazing i loved every minute of it every chapter was briliant for real i read a lot of stories about hyde and Jackie but this one was one of the greatest it was so sad and funny hyde speaking french was hilarious😂 hyde saying what he said to Jackie's mom at the end was so funny and great i couldn't stopped laughing after that it was really amazing you're really talented keep writing thanks for such a great story bye
(2) Hi that's me again i just want to say that you're really talented i wish i knew how to write a story like that i má trying and trying and it's just not good what i am writing i love writing so it's hard not to do it and i love Jackie and hyde so i am trying to write stories about them mostly without no luck yet but your stories are amazing really keep writing these stories they are awesome thanks for it bye
First, thank you so, so much! I’m happy you enjoyed Hyde’s Long Way Home! 😊
As for writing, I’d say start with a short story. A one-shot. A fic with a relatively small conflict for Jackie and Hyde to overcome.
The best way to learn how to write is to 1) write and 2) read well-written books or stories.
I’ve written quite a few T7S fic-writing advice and general writing advice posts. Maybe they’ll help you, too: 1, 2, 3.

Essie Not Red-Y For Bed Collection
Hubby bought this collection for me for Christmas, and I finally got around to reviewing it! The Essie Not Red-Y For Bed Collection consists of 9 shades in cream and pearl finishes. Also, I don’t know about you, but I am always ready for bed! 😆
Most of these shades were 2 coaters, with the exception of Pillow Talk the Talk, which needed 3. Other than that, there isn’t much else to say, so…

*Gifted* This is Butterscotch from the Green Origin collection by @barrymcosmetics 💛 This is such an unusual colour for me, I dont have anything like it and I'm not sure why! Such such rich caramel colour and texture 💛 . . Made of 70% natural ingredients, each shade is super glossy and has a lovely formula. They can be one coaters but I have applied 2 coats. They also have a base/top coat in this collection which adds an extra beautiful sleek gloss, as you can see here 💛 . . P.s. they are not ridges on my nails, the polish is so glossy you can see everything in the background 😄 . . . . #BMGreenOrigin #barrym #BarrysStars #gifted #swatch #swatches #nailpolishswatch #nailsonpoint #nailsobsession #lookatthosenails #nailenny #manicure #nailstagram #instanails #nailpolish #nailspafeature #nailsclip #ignails #nailitdaily #nailedit #craftyfingers #npa #nailpolishaddict (at England) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2zwbG2A_v6/?igshid=x77xu8qmiyb6

I checked with Chloe and she said that I could post pictures of me wearing 2 Years and Counting by @threeheartspolish. Three Hearts Polish has very quickly become one of my all time favourite indie brands. The polishes do not miss. Every collection has me enthralled. Chloe is Holo Royalty as far as I'm concerned. What I love about this polish is the unique metallic flakies alongside the holo. And also? It was almost a one coater. For a colour this light. This was gifted to me because I purchased other polishes and it can be gifted to you too by making an order throughout September. I highly recommend it. I would also recommend the Paired Up collection. But honestly you can't go wrong. #naturalnails #nailpolishaddict #threeheartspolish #holonails #flakienails #cutenails #supportsmall #nailgram #nailswatches https://www.instagram.com/p/CiZ7JahhlHa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#054 The Aspects: Aspect Patterns: The Grand Cross
When looking at the patterns in the centre of the chart which are formed by the aspects, there are patterns that appear which are formed when the planets come together to form larger configurations.
By coming together, I mean that they form patterns by sitting at degrees in the natal chart which form aspects which conjoin to make larger patterns which form a larger pattern in the chart.
These patterns are usually formed with planets and asteroids, but not usually with hypothetical or calculated points like the Ascendant or Midheaven, the Lunar Nodes, or Black Moon Lilith.
These patterns can be considered challenging or easy offering potentials for growth or good fortune in each of their expressions.
Some are more commonly known than others.
This week we are taking a look at the Grand Cross which is formed when there is a planet at the same degree, 90° apart in each of the related modes: Cardinal, Fixed or Mutable.
For example, if you have a planet at 15° of each of the Cardinal signs each planet will be 90° or 180° apart. This forms an aspect pattern that looks like a big square with a cross going from corner to corner.
As you may recall from the episodes on the square aspect and planets in opposition, there’s a lot of tension with planets that sit 90° apart. Oppositions are considered to have a tension as well, though not all oppositions have to be challenging, though they can be.
The Grand Cross is a volatile aspect pattern which creates a great amount of tension in the natal chart. This tension can be expressed productively, or coater-productively depending on the self-awareness of the native. I think of it as a Catherine wheel, with each corner of the square being activated when lit, causing this pattern to spin out of control. It has to burn out before it can slow down and each point of the aspect pattern feeds into itself and can trigger the other points very easily.
As with the opposition, relationships are implied, and with the square aspect there is an unavoidable internalised friction which cannot be ignored. Like my counselling skills teacher says “relationships are the vehicle to change” and this is exactly the type of challenge instigated by this aspect pattern.
Do you have a grand cross in your chart? Let me know!

My top 21 games of all time
EDIT: it was 20 but i forgot 1 game and it def should be in there and i can’t kick out Pokemon, so 21 it is.
I’m going to rank the top 21 games i’ve ever played. This is just my own personal experience i am in no way an expert in games.
21. Pokemon Leaf Green (Game Boy Advanced)
I remember when Pokemon Blue/Red first came out and i really wanted to play it so i borrowed Blue of a guy named Bradley Dentist and my dad caught me playing on it one night when i was supposed to be asleep. Pokemon Leaf Green is a remake of this game and i think i was in University days or my last few years of College (released 2004 so college days) and it was awesome, just an update with new features and places to go from Blue/Red.
20. NBA Live 07 (Playstation 2)
I’m a big NBA fan so one of the games shouldve made it, out of all the NBA games, this has been my favorite one. T-Mac being on the cover helps but it was really cool, players had special moves and there was one play that was unguardable, you have to have a guy that could dunk really well, i think it was the highflyer one, you run under the basket and do a windmill dunk, nobody could stop it. The menu was also really cool watching players highlights in real life
19. Groove Coater Wai Wai Party (Nintendo Switch)
Out of all the games ranked, this is the newest game. I first played this when i went to Japan in 2015 and got hooked playing it at the arcade. i was mostly at the arcade cause i didn’t travel anywhere else, i just stayed in Tokyo for 2 and a half weeks, i love tokyo. Anyways this game is so much fun, the music is great and its opened up my eyes into hardcore tonic and vovaloid music which i now listen. Its fun enough to play casual and has hard songs if you want to challenge yourself.
18. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (Playstation 2)
This game is one of the best of all time, open world in Los Angeles, hire guys to be in your gang and do drive bys, long storyline which i never finished, and just tons and tons of things to do. You could never get bored of it.
17. Megaman Network Battle 3 Blue (Game Boy Advanced)
This game was one of the coolest set ups ive played. You log into the internet and explore fighting various bots and monsters and you have a deck of cards, each card has a special power etc. Ive always been a sucker for creating decks and making the best deck, using different strategies. This game i bought in the US in 07 and played this one and another game for ages. Good story line too and i think you could play this for hours on end too

You GF/OP AU. My fingers itch to write fic for it. I need me grumpy-gruff Pirate Ford who's had just about enough being forced to deal with stupid Marines coming after him. (Also -- Enis Lobby? Ford's totally the one that gets nabbed and put in sea stone handcuffs.)
Anyone who’d like to write fic is absolutely free to do so! Ford is the perfect Candidate for Enies lobby haha, I wonder who would take the place of Lucci. I could see Gideon being an upstart kid who got control of CP9 from having a dad with connections like Spandam did, though he’s not as awful as Spandam.
I imagine Ford’s main problem is Bill, since Bill still needs a lot of knowledge that Ford has about Devil fruits for his nefarious. Stan would maybe be more notorious among Marines because he has a history of escaping capture (like his history of arrests), and I like the idea of Durland and Blubbs being a pair of particularly persistent but well meaning marines chasing them around like how Smoker and Tashigi chase Luffy.
I have toyed with the idea that Stan had actually been put in Impel Down once, and he escaped when a much more infamous pirate broke out and started a riot like with Luffy’s team. Maybe Rico is the one who broke out and considers Stan to be in his debt. Then Stan got contacted by Ford who was trying to hide his research from Bill and needed help. They of course end up bumping heads instead, though from that point it would be a bit different from the show, since there’s no portal. Ford would end up stranded in the Florian Triangle and Stan would dedicate a lot of years to finding Ford, since the Grand Line is impossible to navigate without a log pose, and the Florian Triangle is uncharted and covered in perpetual mist. I feel kinda bad about putting Stan in Impel Down though, since it’s much worse than regular prison. He’d probably be sent sent to level 2 since his bounty would be lower back then and I feel like he could handle the animals a bit better than the razor blade floor level or the starvation level.
I have a few other ideas for other character in the show, like maybe Pacifica is a young noble who wants to break away from her parents like Sabo did, Candy and Grenda are Water 7 locals that Mabel befriends, Robbie is a low ranking Marine who hates his job but was forced into it by his parents to build character, Toby Determined is the guy that gets bounty poster photos, Melody is a coater at Sabaody and hits it off with Soos, Susan is a mermaid lady that works a diner at Fishman Island, etc. It’s a fun universe to play with!

Some snaps of the new setup and new equipment I have been working on/purchased over the last few months. It finally seems to be coming together but I still have improvements to make such as shelving, lighting and temperature control to name a few. As you can see from the first image my biggest purchase was the Riley Hopkins Jr 6 colour 4 station press (+ cart), which is a massive 90” in diameter and takes up the majority of space. It is also the most important purchase as this will allow me to expand the business into printing multi colour jobs on apparel, which I’ve already began to do (literally printed my first 2 colour job yesterday) so it’s an investment I was happy to make! With the press taking up so much space there wasn’t really enough room for a tunnel dryer. This means I’m not curing the ink immediately as the garments come off the press but instead using the print rack to store and allow them to air dry (I use water based inks rather than plastisol) before curing them with the heat press. This obviously takes a lot longer but this has the advantage of giving each print a heat press finish which leaves them nice and smooth. You can also see the wooden unit I made for the heat press on castor wheels to allow easy movement. The 18”x24” flash unit was another necessary purchase and allows me to flash cure inks before printing other colours on top. This was a relatively cheap model that I’ll be looking to upgrade sometime in the future. I’m still using a heat gun for smaller designs to keep the temp & electricity bill down! Some of you may notice the screen rack I made from my story a while back. This was a custom build job and holds upto 14 screens (I think) with shelving above for storing whatever else. I also have my squeegee holder attached to one side and a pegboard to the other, which holds all sorts of scoop coaters, t-squares, mixing sticks & various other items. So now the bulk of the set up is completed I can concentrate on my branding & advertising so you may see a change in logo along with a new website coming soon! 😎✌️✨ . . . #design #print #screenprinting #screenprint #rileyhopkinsjr #studio #printisntdead #printmaking #printspotters #diy https://www.instagram.com/p/B0T8GAcHXZn/?igshid=t6t8xessdza0
