Hear me out 💀

Miguel o'hara pinning over reader and sometimes calling them "Mi sol" or other pet names in Spanish thinking they don't understand.

However reader does understand them and finds it adorable.

So one day reader starts speaking Spanish to Miguel and he is like "You know Spanish?" And then realizes that they understood all the affectionate names he gave them 😭

Unknown Connection.

A Miguel O’hara fluff fic ♡

Warnings: N/A? fluff... I love... Fluff... Reader has no distinct role (Aka I didn’t know if you wanted a spider reader or a civilian reader, nonnie) Spanish Speaking G/N Reader!!!

A/N: NONNIE NONNIE NONNIE I LOVE YOU... you’re perfect, never change, this is my favorite ask and it will remain my favorite ask, thank you nonnie

Summary: Nonnie summed it up, mwah thank you nonnie

You two have always been close bound, even if Miguel would rather have his organs removed than admit it, however, he never really thought about why?

Perhaps it was because you were never scared of his angry spanish.

It was basically your dad telling you to shut up.

So?

Because he didn’t know you spoke spanish, our querido Miguelito* began coming up with little nicknames.

“Mí cielo*, how do you want your coffee?”

“Not that way, you hear me, Estrellita*?”

Or the occasional, “Ya, Ya, it’s time to go, Mí vida*.”

However, nothing could possibly prepare him for the knowledge that you knew what he was saying, what it meant, and that basically you had become his little sweetheart.

Again, not that he would ever admit it.

One morning, after staying in his room at the spider society, he was still drowsy, and probably couldn’t flip the switch to his english again.

“Venga, coño. ¿Me traes un café, dulzura? Con leche, 7 cubos de azúcar, me lo mezclas bién, ¿sí? Gracias solecito*.”

So you can imagine how you came back with his coffee, as he wanted it, just fine.

At first, it didn’t register in his brain, but after a short while of his work starting, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

The drowsiness was gone, the memories were back...

And you understood him perfectly.

Slamming the door wide open, he arrived, usually well mannered hair, some loose strands came flying down, as he puffed.

“¿Y tú? ¡¿Cuándo chingados me ibas a decir qué hablabas español?!*”

You, of course, just gave him a slight giggle, smiling at him coyly, but not so much. His expression was priceless.

“Yo creí qué yá sabías...*”

“¡Pues no! ¡No sabía!*”

Giggling as you smiled at him, and he stormed off to his office... Yeah, you definitely knew about all those nicknames, and he was foolish for not noticing the little spark in your eyes when he called you them.

...

That beautiful little spark.

Su pequeño destello... *

The worst part? It made his crush on you ten times bigger. And of course, Lyla thought it was so fucking funny... Despite now how he would live embarrassed for calling you all those little names without even having dated.

Oh well.

He might as well change that.

My Dear

Little Star

My Everything

Fucking Hell. (But cooler) Can you bring me a coffee, sweetie? With milk, 7 cubes of sugar, can you stir it well for me? Thank you, Little Sun.

And you?! When were you going to tell me you spoke Spanish too?!

I thought you knew...

Well no! I didn’t know!

His Little Spark...

CYBERFREAKY ???? SEL ???? R U STILL WITH US

I AM. DONT FORGET ME ‼️‼️

without spoiling anything, will valcita be in the 1930s version or was she just an au character? i miss her. masc women on simblr are a fucking blessing. -different lesbian anon

You get a GIF different lesbian anon and only a GIF. Make of it what you will 👀

THE SNEAK PEEK!!!! MIGHT I SAYY!!

I have never met a character to give me sooooo much trust issues as much as Alastor has.

YES there have been many wild card characters before. YES there have been ones that are so unpredictable it's hard to guess what they'd actually do *cough* Hisoka *cough*

BUT ALASTOR!!!

Like there are times where I TRUST him. There are times that I believe he's being genuine (like when he sent Mimzy away for the hotel's sake). And there are times that make you believe he isn't ALL evil (not killing egg bois despite being annoyed by them just bc Vaggie said he can't).

BUT LIKE HE IS JUST SO SHADY!!

He has his evil smirking moments, his glances, times when he's just scheming for seemingly no reason that has me questioning whether any of the good was even real!!

Comparing to another unpredictable character, at least with Hisoka, we KNOW, he isn't a good person. And he doesn't pretend to be. He openly just does whatever serves HIS interest the most.

ALASTOR IS JUST SO JEKEBSH

I CANNOT TELL WHAT HE WANTS. I cannot tell whats a lie.

I WANT to trust him. But it's like I know I CANT. But I also still WANT to. But I CANT bc thatd make me stupid and maybe walk right into his traps and and and

Al's gonna get my dumb ass too. I'm right with that other anon.

Here's the thing, I don't think for a single moment Alastor has not been truthful in what he's doing or what he wants.

He does, however, completely omit information or flat-out tells people it is none of their business. They don't need to know, so he keeps that to himself.

He's not lying, but he's not putting his cards fully on the table either.

While rewatching HxH I can say a fairly similar thing for Hisoka. He'll engage in a bit of back and forth just like Alastor, of course, but Hisoka is a lot more mischievous - at least in my opinion.

Where I think their main differences lie is with combat. While they're similar in the sense that they won't really engage if their opponent bores them, Hisoka actively seeks out people he wants to fight. Alastor on the other hand, with what we've been shown so far, only appears to do so in order to "let off steam" or make a point.

Both of them have the amazing ability to directly tell people what they're there for and have people second guess them at the same time. It's delightful, and beautiful character design/writing.

Do you HC Marc as being in touch with his Latino side? We've seen him clearly in touch with his Jewish side, but I almost wish we could have seen more of his Latino side as well! We know Jake is though.

I think… it’s something Marc wishes he could be more in touch with, but like, subconsciously. I think he knows and retains a lot of Spanish but never dares to speak it, i think he can read it and likes to listen in whenever he hears the rapid back and forth of two little old señoras (how do they talk so fast??), but he never responds - at least not in Spanish.

i think it reminds marc too much of what could have been- if that makes any sort of sense. He spent too much time in his younger years trying to be as perfect as he could (on and off) for his mother and it’s given him one too many bitter feelings towards the language- enough so that at a certain point in time, Marc stopped trying to speak or be understood.

i think marc was the kind of kid to revel in everything that made him different from others- i think he loved being Latino and Jewish and an Older Brother- these are all titles, you see, holders of identity- and when… and after… well. He stops wanting to be seen or known because that turns out to be dangerous.

so nonny im not sure if this answers your query entirely but . i think marc still connects in little ways. i think he likes to eat apple slices with tajín sprinkled on top and he loves piñatas and can make a mean salsa when pressed. I think he knows a lot of Spanish lullabies for some reason and just holds onto them in his heart in a little locked box that he doesn’t open but knows the contents of like the back of his hand.

(i also think that when marc reconnects with Jake his whole world is gonna open right up and tbh ?? i can’t wait.)

((send me MK asks!!))

H.. Home..? You don't.. you don't look like.. you look.. odd.. why is your hair gol..gold.. not.. w-w..hite?

..I don't understand what you mean. But we need to get you warmed up before we can get you home. Please, come with me.

welp rin nii thirst comin up tomorrow ૮⸝⸝> ̫ <⸝⸝ ა

Hey, I'm the anon you just answered (thank you for that, you could have just deleted my blind speculating, but thank you :) ) I am so pleased with how the episode turned out! Part of me wishes there could have been a confrontation with Tartt Sr, with Jamie backed up by the people who love him, but no, I absolutely loved that episode! Jamie absolutely broke my heart (the boot room scene, even though it got a little comic, oh god his face when he was saying how tired he was was just devastating). I love how Roy and Keeley spent the whole ep essentially just trying to make sure he is ok and expressing their love for him, I love the scene with his mum (hes a mummy's boy! Their relationship is just adorable!). Seeing him hurt on the pitch actually gave me chest pains, and when he walks off to the applause, big puppy eyes full of tears? I absolutely sobbed. And the med room scene! That scene was everything, the love they all have for each other, I am so happy they did that, I love them so much

Hiya, friendly speculation nonny! Very happy you decided to share your thoughts – I very much agree with them! There are a couple of tiny details (literally two) that had me a little “meh!” (and I still have a lot of questions about the Keeley poster, in spite of adoring the OT3 of it all) but all in all, this episode was so much more than I could have dreamed of! And different from what I’d dreamed, and it was just really, really perfect. And as much as the OT3 was gorgerous, gorgerous, gorgerous, the best thing might have been Jamie and his mum. They way they were with each other just explained so much about Jamie and I’m so freaking glad he’s had that sort of love and support in his life. And Simon! Darling Simon!

But also, the OT3. God. If we could just have this be the status of their relationship when the show ends, that would be perfect, that would be lovely.  

A confrontation with Tartt Sr has a lot of dramatic potential, and there’s nothing to say it can’t be explored in fanfic, even given what we got in this episode. He might slip back into bad habits and the team might still get the chance to stand up for our number 9! (I also have a vague notion that if his rehabilitation sticks and if him and Jamie does develop some sort of functional relationship and Jamie decides to invite him to some sort of event that includes other members of the team they could all just corner Tartt Sr. and give him some variant of the shovel talk, you ever hurt him again we’ll fuck you up, and that’s be nice too.)l

I ask this genuinely: how do you manage to create so much? I really admire how much you make things, and enjoy your hobbies so much. I'm trying to figure out how to feel motivated to do projects again

This got extremely ramble-y, so it's below a read more

A lot of it is honestly luck? I have a stay-at-home job that has a fair amount of down time* where I have to be sitting at my computer in case someone emails me/messages me/calls me but can make things while waiting for emails, and it pays enough I can afford to live and buy craft supplies. I've also had a bunch of people, including relatives, neighbors, friends' relatives, and strangers destash and give me a lot of craft supplies for free. Part of it is that I get...idk how to word it. Antsy and listless when I haven't made things in a while? Making things is enrichment for me, and I know that, so I make a point to not go more than a few days without making something. Sometimes I don't want to make things, but I know I'll feel better if I finish a project**, so I'll crochet a little monster or make a tiny witch hat or something, and usually once I start making something I feel better and want to keep making things. Part of it is that I let myself make things on a whim. I've accumulated enough colors of minky, yarn, and embroidery floss*** that I can pretty much make any small thing I think of immediately after I think of it. This isn't universally applicable advice; I have the storage space to (mostly) store it neatly, and I know myself well enough to know I will absolutely lose enthusiasm for a project if I have to wait too long to start it. If I'm making a quilt but have a strong urge to make a tiny monster, I will take a break from the quilt to make a monster (I sometimes struggle with finishing big projects because of this, but it's a work in progress, and I always finish the project eventually). I also love craft supplies as decor. I let myself switch between hobbies as I have the urge to, and trust that I will eventually go back to previous hobbies. I used to guilt myself about changing hobbies, but now I embrace it. Learning new things is good for me! I just spent like three months quilting, like two weeks making doll clothes and a doll to fit them, and now two and a half days embroidering. I'm thinking about making a teddy bear sized tricorn hat. A few weeks ago I made a chain mail/scale mail bracelet, and before then I think it had been like five years since I made anything with chain mail. Sometimes I do get caught up in guilt about crafts. Like, guilt that I promised to make someone something and haven't yet, or that I spent money on supplies but haven't used them, or that someone bought me supplies and I haven't used them. It can absolutely drain all my crafting motivation. When that happens, I try to take a step back, and find what is stopping me/causing me guilt. Is a gift late? That's okay, my friends and family understand crafting takes time and won't be upset. Did I spend money on supplies and not use them yet? That's okay, picking them out brought me joy and inspiration and I will use them in the future. Someone bought me supplies and I haven't used them? How awesome that they thought of me! Someday I'll make something cool with that stuff, and it's great to have another metaphorical crayon in my crayon box to open up more possibilities of things to make. Sometimes I also get hung up on patterns, where part of it is just utterly unenjoyable to me and I can't bring myself to start making the thing. When that happens, I try to figure out what bugs me about it. Is it too complex a pattern? Okay, I'll pick a simpler one. Do I hate hand sewing applique? Okay, I'll look up machine applique, or use a different fabric that doesn't need applique, or pick a different pattern. I think I might've gotten a little off topic? Part of it is also that I struggle to focus on watching shows or even sometimes reading if I am not also making something.

*I mean, it varies day to day, but a lot more downtime than my first job

**there's some neurochemical thing about finishing a project, especially when the finished project creates a tangible object? ***I used to make friendship bracelets

taking it as a reflection of the fandom instead of the work, doing whatever will help me keep writing - love that! thank you so much, ill definitely keep that in mind in the future. :D i was actually considering shelving the multi-chap one till later, but honestly? reading your reply encouraged me, and im putting that fic up as soon as im done proofreading it! thank you again, youre the best! ❤ - E.

That's awesome, Nonny! Sometimes it just takes reframing how you look at something to get yourself to where you need to be <3 I hope you keep writing, no matter what happens!

And on the flip side...

Firstly, my writing is almost certainly exactly as good as I think it is. I just never said what that was, and I'm definitely not going to get into it now.

Secondly, I didn't 'blame' the fandom. I said that a fic's success (or lack thereof) can be a reflection of the fandom, of its sensibilities and its interests at the time of publishing, and that sometimes, the success of a fic has absolutely fuck all to do with how well-written it is and everything to do with what the fandom's into.

Let's take, for example, my two most recent fics. This one is from 7/25. I wrote it in about two hours because I was inspired by my friend texting me about the Deuxmoi Sunday Spotted:

This is, tbh, about as good as a fic of mine does these days. Solid kudos to hit ratio, kudos over 100, nice amount of comments, everything I could ask for.

Then this is the fic that I published this past Sunday, that I spent two weeks working on, including doing research when I should have been working:

...whomp, whomp.

I don't think that the first fic's relative (and comparative) success has anything to do with how good the writing is. I think it has quite a bit to do with the fact that the type of fic it is and what it's about spoke to people a lot more than the second one did. Which is not a knock against the fandom by any stretch. It's a neutral observation.

And, to the question of a third nonny in my busy inbox today:

Despite a few people saying that they'd love to read more in the 'verse of the second fic, it's highly unlikely, for instance, I would write a follow-up because it's not worth my time or energy. If I can knock out a modern AU fluff fic in two hours that does twice as well as something that took me two weeks...

My time and energy is not an unlimited resource, would that it were, and I have to prioritize, which means, yeah, there are things that will not get written (or at least, won't get written until I have the spare time, energy and motivation on my hands to do so).

Reputation inspired Edissy fic w each chapter based on the tracks ?? I'd die

"Like "call it what you want" fits them so perfectly" 2/2

Fellow swifties in this fandom unite! As a hardcore Reputation lover I am so, so here for this idea and you're right, nonny, I probably will never be able to listen to "Call it What You Want" without remembering Chrissy and Eddie again.

If I weren't juggling like five other fics for them right now I would promise that this is the next thing I would work on for them, but I don't want to get any hopes up so I will just say I am working on this now that you've dropped the idea in my head, and that I am excited for it too, it just might not be done any time soon

Personally Taylor Swift has a way of making the best and most perfect OTP songs, so lately I've been associating most of them with edssy anyway, but the idea of fics based around them is... very interesting to say the least.

Thanks for the idea!

Okay forget about my crush on Jo, Valcita has my undying love now. I'm sorry Jo but I see a masculine woman and all thoughts are gone. Anyways, I love Jo's new look! Ah and a restaurant? Everything she deserves ugh this save is so fluffy! I'm going to be in a world of pain for when we go back to the 1930s ❤️ - LGL

Gasp! A new lesbian has appeared on the scene and it’s your moment to prove that namesake correct yet again 😌

But come, come, dearest LGL, let’s sit…

The time of your beloved AU happy fluffy time may come to an end faster than I had initially planned. The 1930s now has me in an absolute death grip. I cannot stop thinking about it or writing for it, so alas, many of my plans in the AU have been dashed (including your beloved Rosella but I hope my new offering of Valcita can make up for it).

I still plan to reach the end of this arc in the modern day, mostly because it’s begun to bleed into our historical universe, and there are multiple strings to connect before we move on back into the world of pain. I did warn you after all that there was no determining how long we’d stay there for 😉

Have you seen Mahito's new design? He looks so cutee

Yes I have and when I tell you barely any of my thoughts were holy... 🛐🛐🛐

I am so excited to see this arc animated!!

hi! just wanted to say that smtb is my favourite eris series 🥹🥹 i just love his snarky attitude and the banter between he and iris has me dying of laughter every chapter 🤣🤣 they’re honestly so sweet and i enjoy the little side stories that i find on your blog 😌 hope you’re doing well, and i look forward to the upcoming chapters 💛💛💛💛

Thank you for enjoying my babes and whatever I have to offer with them!! I’m thrilled you enjoy it so much!! ♥️

I can’t say why exactly but you give off the energy of phineas from phineas and ferb??

Okay……I’m crying this is so funny

Hey Ferb! I know what we’re gonna do today! Angst over fictional characters and put them through pain!

But fr I’m sitting here typing one handed because my dog is alll over me bc he knows we’re leaving bc the suitcases are out and I’m laughing hysterically and he’s just staring at me like 0•0

Anywayssss nonnie this is great I have never even remotely been compared to Phineas before, but I take this as a high compliment because that kid is so fucking productive and I literally only packed for my trip that I’m leaving for rn like an hour ago

Secretly think you're an absolutely perfect dream of a man
