Could I request Saburou, Dice and Juushi headcanons with an s/o who always calls them by cute petnames? Thank you so much in advance

Ahh cute cute cute!! I loved writing these so much. I love pet names and terms of endearment; they're so simple yet lovely. Anyway, thanks for the request anon, and I hope you enjoy 💕

𝗦𝗮𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗼, 𝗗𝗶𝗰𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗝𝘆𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗶 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝘀/𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗽𝗲𝘁 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀

-pairings: saburo yamada x gn!reader, dice arisugawa x gn!reader, jyushi aimono x gn!reader

-genre: fluff

Saburo

bun, creampuff, beau. saburo’s heard it all, right down to some of the more obscure pet names, from you; well, all except for his very own name, something that never did leave your lips often

pet names were generally a thing of mystery to saburo. he understood what they stood for: terms of endearment for someone you loved. but he never understood why one would use them

he was confused on that end, so when you first call him by such, saburo may end up looking somewhat puzzled as to why you hadn’t just called him by his usual name

perhaps it was because he was inexperienced with all this lovey-dovey stuff that he found pet names to be so strange. i mean, calling each other by name was sufficient enough, wasn’t it? there was no reason for them

he really didn’t think he was one to like pet names or grow accustomed to them. before you guys were a thing, admittedly, saburo did find pet names to be somewhat off-putting. they were never his thing

saburo wasn’t quite the affectionate person in the first place, so hearing you call him by something so sweet and intimate only made him feel so weird on the inside

what was this heart-fluttering sensation? why’d his heart skip a beat each time you called out to him by one of your special pet names? and more importantly, how come he didn’t seem to mind it all that much? in fact, he liked them in a way

though, in the beginning, he really couldn’t help but recoil a tiny bit each time. saburo did like them (which came as a shock to him), but they weren’t something he was used to. it takes time for him to grow into them

since you used pet names so much, on the other hand, saburo much preferred to simply call you by your own name rather than use his own nicknames

it was still much too embarrassing for him to call you by pet names, finding himself unable to even bring himself to say such cheesy names, especially if you guys weren’t alone

over time, however, as he gets more situated and comfortable in the relationship, i think that saburo would try to call you pet names, but only when he was alone with you

and it’d be so out of the blue too, catching you by surprise as he just so casually drops it when he’s asking you a question, though if you ask him to repeat it, saburo pretends as if he didn’t say anything

you very much still heard it crystal clear, however, and you can’t help but smile at it. your boyfriend was a bit adorable

Dice

oh man, he absolutely adored your pet names for him, even if they were admittedly somewhat obscure or made no sense. he didn’t really mind what you called him as long as it was sincere and loving

like yes! darling! he was your darling!! that’s him!

honestly, his face lit up so much each and every time you called him such cute pet names. darling, love, babe. they all were so so good! he couldn’t describe how happy he felt to have his lovely s/o practically call him such cute terms

dice was all about pet names i believe. sure, it was something small and casual, usually being glossed over in conversation, but there was something about pet names and the intimacy behind them that dice loved

it just felt right to be called ‘love’ or ‘darling’ by the person he loved most, y’know?

always loves it whenever you come up with new pet names to call him, as obscure as some of them may have sounded. in his mind, they only meant more since they were so strange that you wouldn’t call anyone else but him that. the obscure ones were his favorite

and just as you’re always calling dice by cute pet names, he’s doing the same exact thing to you. i do think it becomes a bit of a habit for him to call you pet names, kinda like second nature from how often he uses them

his absolute favorite thing to call you was his lucky charm (i will die on this hill) because dice likes to believe that you bring him immense luck in pretty much everything. you were his s/o after all, so it only made sense in his mind

i think the two of you just have a bunch of pet names or nicknames that are special to your guys’ relationship only. you guys are always making up new ones for one another

to outsiders, they simply were so weird and perhaps somewhat questionable, but to you guys, they were quite fun and endearing (maybe you two even try to one-up the other for the most creative and adorable pet name)

the both of you use pet names so often that when you just call him ‘dice,’ he immediately assumes that he was in trouble or that you had something serious to tell him, even when you reassure that you just wanted to say his name

he simply preferred that you called him pet names over his real name any day. they were much more intimate after all, and dice loved how endearing they sounded

Jyushi

cutie, love, darling. each time you called him by such a lovely pet name, it’d be the only thing on jyushi’s mind for a while afterwards. it was simply amazing how a single word could make him so red and flustered

jyushi wasn’t too used to affection or terms of endearment. he’s never really had anyone call him by a pet name or even an intimate nickname before, so hearing you, the person he loved so much, call him such was definitely heart-fluttering

he liked this feeling, liked it a lot actually. the way his heart skipped a beat and could hear its rhythmic thumping in his ears, the way the blood rushed to his face, the way your voice resounded in his mind. it all felt so good. it felt nice to feel so loved

even if you called him darling so casually, dropping it in conversation without much of a second thought, your pet names meant a lot to him. he always caught on to them each time and could never help the way he smiled at it

he was your darling, your cutie, your love!! that was quite nice. jyushi felt happy to have found someone that truly did love him in such a way and openly showed it. admittedly, it did help him feel much better about himself in general

but your pet names also made jyushi feel a bit shy and embarrassed, especially if you called him such around others

pet names were such personal and intimate terms of endearment, something only between partners. so to hear you call him pet names in front of others, especially his teammates or bandmates, well, jyushi couldn’t help but flush and be embarrassed

in a way, he did love it, almost as if you were proud to have him as an s/o and wanted others to know that you guys were a thing. on the other hand, jyushi simply couldn’t handle the attention or the way he could see them laugh a bit, especially if it was such a novel pet name

i think he’d ask if you could only keep it a thing between the two of you whenever you guys were alone since jyushi simply couldn’t handle it in public. besides the above reasons, it was also a bit much on him

as much as he loved your pet names, jyushi simply couldn’t bring himself to call you such cute names, well, in the beginning of the relationship at least

sure, he was a bit quick to latch on to anyone that showed him the slightest hint of love and attention or even care, but calling you something so intimate was something else entirely

jyushi does try, however, and as he got more comfortable with you and in the relationship, it becomes much easier for him to call you by such loving terms

actually, i think he might begin to prefer pet names over your guys’ actual names later on. they were something so small and simple yet carried a lot of meaning behind them. plus, he liked hearing you call him cute names instead

definitely calls you some over-the-top pet names given his visual kei persona or something cute like love or beau. but they were all beautiful in a sense and perhaps struck a chord within you

they sounded so lovely and since they came from jyushi, the man you loved, you couldn’t help but be fond of them

Affectionate Reader (HC)

Fandom: FFXV

Pairing: Chocobros x Reader (gender neutral)

Warning: None

Requested by: Anon

Prompt: Hello! I don't know if this was already requested. May i request hc for the chocobros with a cheerful and touchy crush, please? Like reader is touchy in a affectionate way, hugs, leaning head on the shoulder, patting their shoulder/head ( kinda hard to pat gladio's head of he is standing). Could it be gender neutral? Thank you!!

A/N: Lol I think most of us can’t reach Gladio’s head! cries in being 5′2

———————————————

Noctis

Noctis isn’t fond of being touched much, so at first, he tenses up or slightly flinches. His upbringing has taught him to maintain a respectful distance, so it takes him a little time to get used to your affection.

The prince will never admit this to you, but he adores it when you lean your head on his shoulder. Sometimes when you fall asleep, leaning against him, he watches your peaceful face with a smile.

Once Prompto caught Noctis watching you and decided to take a few pictures. The next day when he showed you the photos, you couldn’t help but turn a few shades of red. You almost ran to your prince charming and bear-hugged him but decided against it, knowing that Noctis would feel embarrassed. Instead, you quietly walked up to him and planted a kiss on his cheek, catching the heir off guard. “I love you.”

Those words were enough to make the prince blush. The two of you shared a sweet embrace, but that moment was cut short with all the “awws” and “oohs” from the prince’s friends.

To this very day, Prompto teases the two of you for being so lovey-dovey, while Gladio tells you two to “go get a room”.

Gladiolus

Gladio openly welcomes your touch from the first day you start dating him. Much to the prince’s dismay, neither one of you hesitates to display affection in front of the others.

A few weeks back, the shield invited you to join them camping, and you immediately agreed as it was a great chance to spend alone time with your lover. Gladio had finished setting up the tent and was watching Prompto taking pictures of Noctis. You walked up behind the shield and jumped up once, twice, and continued to do until Gladio turned around and looked at you. “What are you trying to do?"

"Pat your head! Why do you’ve to be so tall?” Your response drew hearty laughter from Gladio. The shield sat down on a chair and pulled you close to him. “Is this better?”

With a hum, you patted Gladio’s head, only to have him wrap his arms around you and bury his face in your chest. Behind the two of you, Prompto and Noctis were pretending to barf and be sick.

Prompto

Just like Gladiolus, Prompto has no issues with your affectionate touch, but what he loves the most is your cheerful personality.

The two of you were out on a date when Prompto suddenly said that he feels blessed having you in his life. His sudden yet sweet comment made you freeze in your tracks. Sensing your shock, Prompto pulled you in a firm hug, "I am sorry for being so sudden, but…but I like you very much. Can I…"

Sensing his hesitation, you cupped his cheeks and pecked his nose, "Prompto, it’s okay. You can tell me anything.” Those words were enough to push the blonde into telling you his true feelings. “People always see my cheerful personality and think that I am a happy-go-lucky guy. They’re not wrong, but what they don’t know is that I don’t have anyone that makes me smile. Now that has changed…thank you."

His words had made your heart melt, and from that day on, you decided that you want to be by his side forever.

Ignis

Similar to Noctis, Ignis’s upbringing restricted him from interacting closely with others, but unlike the prince, Iggy is mature and doesn’t mind your affection. Unbeknownst to you, Ignis admires your hugs above all.

You enjoyed giving hugs to your lover, but you noticed a pattern in his reactions to your hugs. On normal days, he would hold you close to him for a few seconds and break the hug, but on days that he was stressed, he would embrace you and place kisses on your head.

Curious, you asked Ignis about this, "Iggy, why do you like to kiss my head on certain days and not on other days?” Your lover stared at you with an eyebrow raised but quickly regained his composure and cleared his throat. He was shocked to learn that you had taken note of this.

“There are certain days that I find myself rather exhausted, and on those days, your hug,” he paused and once again cleared his throat, “diminishes the stress.” You gawked at his confession and could’ve sworn that you saw a hint of red on his cheeks. From then on, whenever you sensed Ignis’s stress, you made sure to give him extra tight hugs.

Jojo Drabble - Jotaro (Pride Month Special)

It's the end of Pride Month, and I haven't seen a single, not a single post about Aro/Aces...

I'm not really surprised. At all.

I'm linking some interesting videos and websites to help you understand this sexual orientation.

Asexuality: The invisible Orientation by Hippie Calico

I spent a day with Asexuals by Anthony Padilla

Asexuality by David Jay

Asexuality.org (available in 16 languages)

R/aaaacccccce on Reddit

R/asexuality on Reddit

(Both subreddits are very cute and full of funny memes and good positivity 💜🖤)

In regards to the visibility of this marginal and forgotten sexuality, I'll be making a drabble about it. With the only openly Aro/Ace character of Jojo that I know of.

※ Jojo Scenario • Jotaro - Ace to Ace

You opened the heavy metallic door leading to the rooftop, the loud clank and dry screech making you cringe. Hopefully the sound wouldn't alert the teachers or the class reps. After all, nobody was allowed on the roof. Especially during class hours.

You walked around, searching for a certain someone and, surely enough, the boy in question was there, just where you expected him to be.

"Man, you sure love to ditch, don't you?"

You chuckled and the male didn't even spare you a glance, his hat effectively shielding his face from the Spring sun as he laid leisurely on the floor, his arms pillowing his head.

"I could say the same to you."

Well, he wasn't wrong, you thought to yourself, but you would never admit it out loud and possibly give this smug man reason.

You slowly and carefully sat down next to him, groaning slightly at the painful difficulty of the usually simple task.

Jotaro perked up slightly at your discomfort, making sure you were alright. Thankfully you seemed alright and he relaxed.

"Yare yare daze, you shouldn't have come. You're still recovering, why are you walking flights of stairs now?"

That's right. You were still under medication and strict medical supervision for your quite severe stomach wounds. And you still weren't used to your prosthetic leg just yet.

It was purely a miracle that you managed to survive that fight against Dio, and you never ever took a second of your life for granted after that, thinking of the friends who didn't have the same chance as you, lost forever during that battle.

You looked down at your uniform skirt. You couldn't think about that now. You had to lift up the mood for Jotaro, and for them.

"Hey, I'm fine." You dismissed with a smile, "It doesn't even hurt that much anymore, it's been a while now." You reassured and he only mumbled his catchphrase again, laying back down.

You two kept each other company in comfortable silence. Despite everything, Jotaro was still taciturn and you were much calmer after all that happened the past few months.

It was already the end of the school year and your thoughts drifted to the future that awaited you, and what it had to possibly offer.

"Say, Jotaro..." You softly grasped his attention and he only hummed in response. "What do you think will happen next? After we graduate, I mean..."

"Hmm?" He opened a curious blue eye at you." ...Go to college or get a job. Or both. What else do you want to do?"

"Ah well..." You paused and thought of your next words. "I don't want to but... Guess I'll have to get married and stuff eventually... Have kids, cook for my husband, things like that you know..."

Jotaro clicked his tongue and scoffed at the disgusting idea. "...Bullshit."

"I know..." You sighed and looked back down at the male, only to see him stare at the now more covered sky, his usual glare softer on his face. You knew what he was thinking.

"Jotaro..." You called and he looked at you. "You're the same as me... Right?"

He didn't say anything, but his eyes spoke answers for him. You may not have known him for very long, but the adventures and experiences you lived with him were worth much more than years of friendship.

He huffed and closed his eyes. "Yare yare daze... Why are you talking about depressing things, now?"

"I mean... Can you blame me for being worried? I know you feel the exact same, Jotaro." You brought your knees up to your chest and stared ahead. "You'll have to get through the same thing at one point too... That's... What we're expected to do, after all... Whether we like it or not."

He hated to admit it, but you were right. What was the place in society for two outsiders with not interests in romantic or sexual relationships?

What were Aromantics and Asexuals besides loners, straight people craving attention and finding poor excuses for their lack of charisma?

Especially when everybody well knew that the only way to succeed in life, was to share it with a significant other and keep the bloodline going forever.

...Or was it really?

All these thoughts, your obligations as members of the patriarchal modern society, the implications behind all of it, the consequences, the fate you two would be doomed in. All of these were so painful. A lifelong struggle.

He was aware that he'd have to complete his other half of his life, achieve the ultimate life goals of getting married to a beautiful little wife and have cute little children running around the house and all that jazz.

But that's not how Jotaro Kujo had ever imagined his life would be like.

He had his own dreams, his own comforts. Being alone was good. So good. But he had no choice, he'd have to satisfy society's expectations. He'd have to make his mother proud and granting her the little grandchildren she always wished to have.

Jotaro looked back at your metallic leg. After all you've been through, after all he's lost to save his mother, pleasing her and making her happy was the least he could do to honor your sacrifices and the deaths of his loved ones.

But what could he do? Force himself? A man couldnt force himself to develop feelings, he could only pretend. But what good would that do him?

He'd have to, eventually. He couldn't help but think back at you. You were all the same. And you two would be judged for life for not following suit and do like everyone else, like little sheeps.

Was it so wrong to not want to be with a special someone? To not get attached or attracted? Why was it so weird? Why was it unacceptable? Who deemed it necessary, to get stuck into marriage just for the sake of being married?

And man, his thoughts rathered to drift to sex either, that's really the last straw and if possible, he'd love to shut everybody up about it. Shut up everybody who only validated a man's worth by his primal urge to knock a woman up.

You seemed to be the only one he could actually talk about this with, since people would just tell you the usual 'You're gay!' or 'You haven't found the one yet!'.

Just like telling a depressed person to 'cheer up'. Bullshit excuses of people who couldn't accept that mindsets and sexualities differ with each human being.

What were the two of you supposed to do? You were stuck, cornered.

He was a stone that knew nothing about affection, and he already pitied the unlucky woman who'd get to him.

And you were just as bad of a stone. He felt bad for you, for having to have to lay down and take it without batting an eye just to satisfy the needs of the greedy bastard that'd snatch you away.

"... We'll figure it out, Y/N. We've dealt with much worse to worry about things like that."

"That's true but... I don't know. It's hard to imagine a family life. I like chilling on my own. And I'm still too sad about them to be lovey-dovey."

He scoffed, hitting your back playfully. "So what? Let two hopeless rocks with crippling depression be themselves. Sounds like a plan."

"Now, hear yourself talking about depressing things!" You chuckled and pointed out accusingly at him, stealing his precious hat and putting it on your own head.

He sat up with an exhausted sigh and roughly pulled his hat down your eyes, as his own little revenge, gratified by a small 'Ow!' of response from your end.

He let out a ghost of a smile as you were blinded by his hat, thankful that you couldn't see him even though he knew you'd never tease him for being more expressive.

"Ow, that actually hurt, Jojo, you bastard!"

"Let's go." He stood up before stretching his huge hand out to you, making sure to be careful with your injuries as he pulled you up to your feet with surprising gentleness.

Before you could reach your classroom, you grabbed your friend's arm, prompting him to stop walking in the empty hallways.

"But really, Jojo... Wherever you are, and if you have been pushed into a life that unsatisfies you in the future... think about me, okay? You know that somewhere, I'll be the exact same... You're not alone."

He couldn't help but soften his gaze just slightly. You were a thoughtful person, that wasn't a secret. You already had proven yourself to be compassionate multiple times during your crusade, and you kept on.

You made him realise that he was normal and it was okay to not feel anything. You two could only rely on each other now, and it sure didn't matter to him what people say.

Oh of course he'd heard his classmates gush about how cute you two were and how uncharacteristically sweet he was towards you ever since you came back from your trip.

Because the infamous Jotaro Kujo wouldn't just have a soft spot for just anyone, right? Nobody would believe that he became so gentle just because you were injured, there must be something more, right?

No. Absolutely not. And screw society for fogging people' small brains into thinking that there's an afterthought or innuendo behind every male-female, or even same sex platonic relationships.

He knew well that it made you as uncomfortable as him, but you always brushed it off and let the people talk. Let them believe whatever they wanted.

He never wanted to think too much about it, but he couldn't help but worry as well sometimes. That was the kind of things that pissed him off.

It pissed him off so bad. If it wasn't for you he would have crushed so many skulls already. That would teach some people to shut the fuck up.

"What are you thinking about, Jotaro?"

He blinked, humming questioningly at you as you had taken him out of his transe.

"You just called Star Platinum." You said as you grabbed the Stand's big hand, shaking it around as if to greet him, to which he responded with a whispery 'Ora'.

He sighed heavily, calling his Stand back. "Nothing... Nothing at all."

You chuckled a bit. You've learned to read him quite well overtime. A skill only his mother and Kakyoin had mastered. "I'm worried too, Jojo. Hopefully it will be okay... For us."

You patted his back reassuringly and he smiled.

Wasn't that kind of love enough? Love without obligation, without commitment. Without the consequences. Without gender norms, without standards. Just people caring for each other. Wasn't friendship, camaraderie, sisterhood and brotherhood beautiful enough?

Platonic, unromantic love was much stronger than any other type of relationship. He was satisfied with this form of social contact. He didn't need anything more.

Jotaro Kujo was never a greedy man, after all.

The male was suddenly brought back to his sense when he felt a tiny hand tug insistently at his sleeve, hoping to wake him up from his rêverie.

"Papa, you fell asleep on your desk again..."

Jotaro inhaled tiredly, scratching his head and taking in his surroundings, his study back in his home in Florida. He patted his daughter's head, making her scrunch her face a little.

Was it that late already? He was so used to dozing off after working on his thesis, reflecting on his life and his choices. He had been overworking himself lately. He knew he shouldn't overthink, but he couldn't help it.

"Thank you Jolyne. Go back to sleep now, alright?"

The little girl nodded and trutted out, leaving her father alone to his thoughts.

Jotaro let out another breath, eyeing a certain picture frame, taken in the desert. Hopefully you were living a fulfilling life of your own.

And hopefully you two would get to meet again, and maybe talk again.

Ace to ace.

Penumbra Superlatives: Most Likely To Be A Dark Matters NPC

The people demanded it, and I am indeed a magnanimous conspiracy theory machine, so here is my incredibly ridiculous reasoning behind my “who is in the dark matters simulation and who is fake” ranking, found here. Thank you to my partner for listening to me yell about this for 24 hours straight now. Man, I am gonna look like an idiot if this isn’t a Dark Matters induced simulation or dream in the end with how all-in I’ve been going with this.

Also, if you guys ever want me to lay out every fucking tiny detail I’ve seen that I think points to it being a simulation, I’ll do that too. Please validate me.

This is insanely long, it’s like two to three paragraphs for every member of the space family. This is kind of shameful, I almost feel bad. I’ll be your best friend forever if you read it all. Also, I’m putting it below the cut for everyone’s sanity. Anyway, let’s go lesbians, let’s go!

First, in the “definitely an active participant” category: Rrrrrita!

I’ll admit, it’s genuinely really hard to tell what discrepancies in the story are suspicious simulation details and what is just Rita being a particularly unreliable narrator. However, my first general point towards Rita being an active participant/player/whatever you want to call it is the fact that we’re experiencing this through her perspective! I think it would be really cool to tell the story from the perspective of a caricature puppeted by Dark Matters, but I feel like it would be way more obvious in gaps in her thinking patterns if she was fake. Honestly, I personally think it would be impossible to run it from the perspective of one of these NPCs (as i’m calling them) anyway, because... you know, they probably don’t have much in the way of thoughts in the first place.

Plus, out of everyone in the group, she is most likely to be plucked out of a group of criminals by Dark Matters to recruit. Sasha knows her (or at least knows of her) and how good she is at her job. I’m sure she’s got a target on her back as someone that’s too powerful (seriously, I pray for the universe the day Rita realizes just how quickly she could take over the world--see: my THEIA Rita AU that i came up with this morning which I might post about later), but I’m also pretty sure killing Rita would be seen as a wasted opportunity. This could just be another test, just like Day That Wouldn’t Die but in an even more controlled environment. The perfect trap, the perfect test--hopefully for perfect results. And with how she tends to get caught up in glamour and drama or get distracted so easily, she’s one of the easiest members of the group to trick into not questioning the little discrepancies that comes from living in a lie.

---

Next, Vespa. Love of my life and the only other member of the Carte Blanche crew that I’m almost totally sure is sharing space in this simulation.

She’s in a similar position that she’s a valuable asset for Dark Matters to try and take on--especially if they can use her past debts as blackmail or something along those lines. She’s a damn good assassin and they tend to specialize in making people disappear. Why wouldn’t they seize the opportunity to test her and see if she could truly work for them? Dark Matters also seems to lack an ethical core, to say the least, and if they consider her past trauma and her illness to be an issue, I’m sure they wouldn’t be against trying to “fix” her in their horribly scummy ways just so she could be a better killer for their organization. It could also be related to her skills as a doctor with the crew, to be fair--while Rita is off building robots and trying to break into a super secret base, Vespa is repairing the entire medical wing, an incredibly suspicious task when apparently enough of the ship survived that Rita’s computers are okay, the entire crew is unscathed, and the Ruby isn’t a warped hunk of metal.

Though she is also very likely to be nabbed by Dark Matters as an opportunity, the main condemning thing against Vespa being an NPC is the conversation we overhear with Buddy. No one else knows that Vespa considered or decided on leaving the crew. We can’t say that’s a part of Rita’s mind affecting the simulation around her because Rita doesn’t know, and it’s not information that could be hacked, either. It was just in her mind. Unless Dark Matters has their hands on new mind reading technology (oh god, not this shit again), there’s no way that the scene with Vespa and Buddy could exist unless Vespa is also inhabiting the simulation. Every scene they choose to include is deliberate. To rule Vespa out of the plan, all it would’ve taken was likely just Vespa being her normal defensive self. Why would they include a scene with a look into that vulnerability if it didn’t matter?

Speaking of the Vespa and Buddy scene--but why would Vespa snap at Rita that badly if she’s real, you might ask. You’re right, Vespa is aggressive but not that aggressive normally, and it stood out in the few interactions we saw. In Vespa’s defense, if she is participating in this simulation, she is understandably freaked the fuck out. Vespa spends every day of her life hyperaware of what might be real and what might be fake around her. She’s most likely to figure out that something is very wrong first simply because of that trait. How much of her mind is Dark Matters manipulating? Would DM have to simulate her hallucinations, or would that come naturally along with her mind being stuck in this simulation? I imagine that for every discrepancy we’ve picked up on, she’s picked up on six--but she no longer has the explanation of it being a hallucination. I imagine it’s frustrating and terrifying for her. I’d be on edge, too!

---

Moving into our next category: “probably in the simulation”, with our only candidate Buddy.

Buddy is my question mark character. We barely interacted with her this episode. From what I can tell, most of what we saw from her seems in character, and she had some wicked fucking lines. I’m sorry, I refuse to give Dark Matters credit for the line “If you imagine all that could go wrong, all you’ve done is drag yourself through a thousand disasters. And even in the worst-case scenario, you will only need to live through one.” Because it genuinely made me feel better in real life, goddammit.

Buddy is mostly in this category for lack of evidence, both with the lack of interaction and with how Rita kind of glazed over the family meeting with her distractions. So, it’s hard to say. I’d love to hear others’ theories on Buddy’s place in this.

---

Now, we cross the threshold into those that are probably not in the simulation, or are acting incredibly suspicious: the “on thin fucking ice” category. First, Peter.

Can this bastard decide on his personality for two whole minutes so I can get a handle on the little intricacies of the new Ransom persona? No? Goddammit. It’s hard to tell how much of the way he acted was genuinely suspicious and how much of it is the mask he’s put on for Peter Ransom. While he’s adopted the old name, he hasn’t adopted his old personality, so it’s near impossible to get good points of comparison on this new view. We’ve seen inside his head with this persona, sure, but we can’t compare the way he spoke and acted in his head with how he holds himself in front of Rita--he’s always going to choose his level of vulnerability based off of the least trusted person in the room. He’s not to that place with Rita yet. He’s going to have walls and facades up that he won’t have in front of Juno, or in front of himself. He can’t make it easy on him.

But that does not mean I can’t be suspicious of him, because I am. Fuck you, Nureyev, I’m still coming for you. Mainly, I’m squinting at his reaction to Rita’s plans and his lack of reaction to her openly talking about the two of them in an established relationship. We know damn well that Peter and Juno are not at that place yet. Why, do you ask? Because I trust that Sophie and Kevin wouldn’t take that moment from us. We’ve had three and a half years of slowburn buildup on Jupeter! We would not skip from “tentatively talking and trying to learn communication through ‘’’’’’poetry’’’’’’ and shit” to “established lovey dovey relationship” without being let in on it. I doubt Peter would let comments like the ones Rita made really slide in front of Juno--after all, the last time he admitted he was in love, Juno fucking left, and I bet there’s a lot of reluctance or trauma surrounding that. Yet he let it slide anyway.

Still, because Peter is a wild card, there’s still a possibility that his non-reaction was a defense mechanism or part of the Ransom facade (after all, he had to pretend he was in better standing with Juno than he actually was at first to keep his place in the family). The most suspicious thing he did in that conversation, in my opinion, was agree not to let anyone else know about the plan. He knows damn well that he is on thin ice with everyone in the crew except for Juno and Rita. Trust is in short supply for him and keeping his position in the family is incredibly important to him, both so he can find a way to pay off his debts and so he can pursue this shaky relationship he’s started to piece back together with Juno. Yet he hops right in with barely any pushback when it comes to keeping this Incredibly Vital And Important Plan a complete secret. Plus, you know, he supposedly couldn’t even stand, yet walked all the way to the computer cave. Sure, maybe Juno carried him, but I’d fully expect something like Juno picking him up to be a joke written into the script. I feel like it was deliberately left out.

Still, the only real glimpse of Peter that Dark Matters has ever had was of Rex Glass, and Peter definitely isn’t acting like his Rex persona, so how would they really know to get his personality around the Aurinko family to where it is? I suppose that could be attributed to Rita, Vespa, and/or Buddy shaping the simulation around them.

Tl;dr on the Peter section: He’s almost definitely an NPC but nothing is certain with a man whose entire sense of self is based off of an elaborate web of lies and inconsistencies.

---

Also probably an NPC, but I’m not sure, thus on thin fucking ice: Jet.

You cannot tell me for one fucking second that Jet doesn’t know the Ruby 7 inside and out. That car is his baby. He’s torn the car apart and repaired it more than anyone else, and you’re telling me he doesn’t understand the core functions of the car--the engine, the fuel tank? No fucking way. I don’t have 3.5 paragraphs of speculation for Jet, I’m just so hung up on the fucking car thing. His personality fits well, which is the one string I’m holding onto that makes him maybe possibly an actual human being, but I feel like Dark Matters fucked up by trying to fill in the blanks on the Ruby 7. That’s where I think the issue comes from--the reason there’s a part in the Ruby that Jet doesn’t understand is because DM doesn’t know how the Ruby works, and they tried to put in what they imagined could power it or fuzz over the details. But I will cry if the Ruby was actually destroyed in the crash, there’s no recovering from that.

---

And finally, if you’ve made it this far and not left after whispering to yourself holy shit, she’s insane, she’s absolutely insane, how much does this woman talk, we have the final category: unfortunately an NPC. And holy shit, is Juno 100% not in this simulation or being almost entirely puppeted by Dark Matters.

I genuinely can’t get into all my reasoning behind Juno being a puppet here without going on forever and doubling the length of this post, and I’ve put you through so much already. But every inch of Juno is suspicious, down to his tone of voice. Look, I’m happy to see him happy. But it just seems like a jump--just like as I discussed in the Peter section with the Jupeter relationship. It feels like we skipped something, or missed something. This is my theory: Juno has been crafted based off of how Sasha Wire knew him when she saw him last. He doesn’t have reactions that are quite right to the computers, to Peter, to anyone, really. Everything felt just a little off--until he got frustrated. Then he became more realistically Juno. I think this might be because Sasha is basing a comfortable and happy Juno (the one she assumes he must be around the people on the ship, especially Peter if she knows they’re romantically involved) off of the Juno she interacted with when they were younger, which is just off in comparison to the Juno we know now. She can build a more three dimensional Juno in the situations she’s familiar with, like a bored Juno, a frustrated Juno, or an angry Juno. She’s got the one-liners down, I’ll give her that.

I’m also just in general not surprised if Sasha is just keeping him separate from the rest of them. Possibly to try and talk him out of the family, get him untangled from the Dark Matters mess? Plus, he’s incredibly perceptive, and might be considered a risk to the simulation if he was in it.

Also, the out-of-universe evidence: I am 100% convinced that the reason the episode script came out late is because it had to be edited to remove some of the directions, possibly suspicious things like “too cheery”. Specifically, I think one of Juno’s significant directions is missing. It’s hard to put exactly what kind of direction is missing into words because I don’t know anything about script writing, but I just... I have a feeling. Trust me on this. I’ve seen other people on Twitter talk about it too, I’m not the only one. I stand by it.

---

Anyway, since I want to keep my Juno-specific speculation as short as possible, that’s all, folks. If you stayed this long, genuinely I love you so much and I would give my life for you, message me or mention it in the tags that you made it all the way and maybe we could be mutuals or friends!! I love to ramble about this kind of thing. Follow me for more aimless speculation, hopefully not 2.5k words next time. If you have any questions or other stuff to discuss also mention it and I might post about it later!

Update: If you’re interested in the simulation theory, here’s the link to a post I just made laying out all my conspiracy theory evidence for it.

A Rose by any Other Name Would Smell as Sweet

Miserable_toad

Chapter 10: I will wear my heart upon my sleeve

Summary:

You wake up in Severus quarters and can't get your head around last night's events. You find an open ear for your thoughts with Minerva and Remus. In the end, you decide to play open cards.

Notes:

Not much to say about this one. Life sucks some times and I really needed a portion of fluff to cheer me up so I wrote this. Hope you all like it. Sorry about grammar mistakes. Also I realised there's an awful lot of tea drinking in my work. So go ahead and make yourself some tea to set the right mood! Tea's awesome and I mean that unironically.

Comments always appreciated. Thank you SO much for reading this! It means the world to me!

Chapter Text

I woke up on his couch, covered with a green velvet blanket. After a short feeling of disorientation, I remembered where I was and how I got here. It still felt unreal though. Did last night really happen? Did I really fall asleep on him? And he let me just do that without complaint? He held my hand….I looked around: On the table next to me were tea, some scones and croissants on plates as well as a butter knife next to a jar of marmelade. There was also a small roll of parchment put into the empty teacup. I sat up and read:

“Good Morning [y/n]

Unfortunately, I have some important appointments to attend and thus can’t personally talk to you right now. As it is Saturday, I knew you didn’t have any classes to attend, so I reckoned it was fine to let you sleep in. Feel free to have breakfast before you head out.

Best regards,

Severus.”

As short and non-revealing as it could be. The breakfast looked amazing, so I didn’t hesitate to dive in. Meanwhile I looked around at his room and it was now illuminated by the sun coming from the enchanted windows. It was breathtaking and you really had the impression they’d lead outside just like the roof in the Ravenclaw tower. I hope I can be a guest here any time soon again.

I headed out to the teacher’s common room to find anyone to talk to about last night. It’s true, I didn’t have any appointments and it was Saturday. The teacher’s room is usually quite deserted at the weekend but one or two people were almost always around. To my disappointment, Remus wasn’t there but Minerva sat in one of the chairs with her coffee, reading the newspaper. When she saw me, she put it hastily away, stood up and greeted me with a long and tight hug. Petting my arm she said:

“I’m so sorry about yesterday, dear. How are you? Do you have time for a cup of tea in my office? I’d really want to talk to you about what happened in a more private place.”

I took up the invitation and nodded thankfully. We went to the Gryffindor quarters, where she let me inside her office. She offered me some biscuits and a nice and warm Darjeeling tea before saying the following:

“Now that we can’t be interrupted… I just wanted to say I’m sorry. When I told my house about the events, they all seemed to be very shocked. The ones who are in your class assured me they will continue their activity in the drama group. So, you see, they are very committed to you and your class. Never think, we won’t support you. I really can’t imagine anyone in my house holding these antiquated views of the arts but I’m old enough to not be a fool. Just because they are Gryffindors doesn’t mean they are all perfect little angels. I made clear to them that I stand by your side no matter what. If anyone has a problem with this, they are free to discuss it with me and I will make sure they soon know why they’re utterly wrong.” Her tone was sincere and resolute. I was deeply touched to have the support of such a strong and wonderful woman. She might be a bit stubborn at times but gosh, I admired her so much.

I replied: “Thanks Minerva. That really means a lot to me. I feel so much better knowing you all stand by my side. You’ve all been so kind to me last night. I’m not scared anymore.”

“Right you are. I’m sure Remus will help you with any precautious. Don’t you worry.” – she said and tapped my hand. “I have to admit, I’m looking forward to your play. Shakespeare is very entertaining after all and some of my students have been cast in very interesting roles by you.” – she smirked lovingly and took up another biscuit.

“Oh, you won’t be disappointed. The students really want to put up a high-class performance despite having little or no experience. We still need a solid number of rehearsals, but they will give a splendid performance at the end of the year. I’m sure of it.” - I said this with way more confidence than I actually had but hey, we gotta advertise us well.

After finishing her biscuit, Minerva folded her hands on the desk and said with an elevated eyebrow: “Now… do you want to talk about the other thing, too?”

“What other thing?” – I replied.

“You didn’t return to your quarters last night. My owl came back with her message. I was a bit worried at first but then I thought it’ll be alright after I checked in with some of the portraits.”

“Oh...” – ok, how do I get out of this. I wasn’t ready to share my silly feelings to other colleagues than Remus that soon….

Minerva just smiled and tipped my head lightly with one of her fingers: “You don’t need to hide behind the bush, dear. I know you and Professor Snape have spent quite a lot of time together lately.”

I exclaimed: “He just gave me another refill of my sleeping potion”, which was the truth. Though that wasn’t what put me to sleep in the end..

Minerva shook her head: “But that’s not it, isn’t it?” I was a bit of lost for words at that. After some seconds of silence, she continued: “Come on now. We’re grown-ups and you’d be surprised to know how much flirting and seduction is going on within the staff departments. Now, Severus is usually never involved in things like this so it’s certainly something else.” Ok, I need to come back to her at some point to hear her elaborate on that. Swee, sweet gossip. Yet, let’s stick to my thing at first. It’s interesting how everyone I talk to about Severus is basically saying the same thing, so I said: “That’s what everyone is saying actually. That it’s unusual for him to be so friendly with someone.”

She replied: “Because it’s true. You get along well?”

“Yes, we do.”

“Can I be frank?” – she said, while looking sternly into my eyes.

“Of course.”

“Where do you think this is going? What do you feel for him?”

“I…. “and here I swallowed hard. Because vaguely telling it to Remus is fine but openly admitting it to someone new is difficult. I’m also not entirely sure of my concrete feelings, yet. I said: “I don’t know but… I think I’ve definitely fallen for him and would love to connect .. on a deeper level with him.”

“That’s a relief to hear.” – she replied quickly, taking another sip of tea. “Why?” - I asked with a puzzling face. She continued: “Because my dear, he’s head over heels for you.”

Finally, I could get a hold of Remus and we decided to watch the Gryffindor team during their training. It’s convenient because no one takes note of us in the stands. They’re way too focused on their training. The Hufflepuff team also isn’t interested in bullying their next game’s opponents during trainings. So, we were safe in that regard.

“Ok. That’s.. Minerva is very good in reading people and she certainly never holds back putting things bluntly.” – he said while watching some of the students trying to shoot a goal. “I guess we can take her word for it and he does have a sincere interest in you. We also have to take into account, of course, the fact that you were holding hands” -he said in a teasing tone, putting up his hand in a melodramatic gesture.

“Shut up, jerk.” – I pushed him slightly in jest. He continued: “For real, if that’s how a Professor Snape looks like being head over heels in love… that’s kind of disappointing. Though no, now that I think of it, I can’t see him doing lovey dovey talk or flirting with anyone. Still.. do you.... do you want to have a relationship with him? I’m not judging, really! In the end I wished he’d finally found someone to make him chill a bit. He's so goddamn tense.”

“I don’t know.. yes? Like we’ve just spent a couple of months working together, I don’t want to push this too fast. I only know, I want to pursue this further and be closer to him. But what if he just felt sorry for me yesterday. Or maybe he wanted me to calm down so I don’t ruin his couch with my snot or whatever.” – I said and put my head in my hands. UGH the whole thing shouldn’t be so complicated. I feel like a teenager..

Remus sighed and said: “I don’t think he’s the type for that. Once, I saw him give additional homework to a crying and clearly stressed out student without blinking an eye.” – Remus took up a stone and threw over the stands. He has a point, I thought. In the end, he could’ve just ordered me to leave. That reminds me.. “Minerva also told me I shouldn’t let his insecurities destroy anything good in his life again. She fears that he’ll try to get himself in the way of happiness. What do you make of this?”

“I agree. I think many people, me included, are responsible that he truly believes he’s the villain and he just sticked with it. I don’t think that’ll change much even with the prospect of love. I think in its core there is a self-manipulating tendency that comes from a deep feeling of insecurity. It doesn’t mean he can’t change. It also doesn’t mean that he shouldn’t have or deserves a fulfilling relationship. You might have to convince him of that fact though. If it ever gets too… intense.. don’t be a fool. Come to me, talk to me and we make sure you’re safe. Your past doesn’t give you a free ticket to being a dick.”

Bad memories came back to me. Of me being too patient, too naive, too.. compliant, not seeing that a person is abusive, manipulative and cruel. All the thoughts of ‘I don’t deserve any better’ come back to me. Maybe Severus is not the right choice.. what if it becomes similarly… nightmarish? But I can’t stop my heart and so far he didn’t show any red flags. He self-reflects. He apparently wants to change. And I can’t stop thinking about him and wanting to be with him. He has been nothing but kind. Harsh sometimes, but kind and caring. Honest with his flaws. Finally, I said to Remus: “I guess, I should just do the reasonable and grown up thing: be open, see where it goes, and talk to him?”

I returned to my quarters to do some reading in preparation for the upcoming week. Remus assured me he’ll come on Monday to put some new spells on the walls to guarantee protection. It was difficult concentrating though. My mind kept going back to last night’s event. The good and the bad parts of it. I sat on my balcony for a while to order my thoughts. It was a foggy afternoon and you could barely see the woods through the misty clouds. It was so peaceful. I’m surprised about my own calmness, considering that someone broke into my classroom, destroyed it and hasn’t been caught, yet. The overwhelming support here helps. I’m really lucky to be here and not.. in that other place.

I heard my doorbell ring and walked to the door to see who it was. I didn’t expect visitors and I don’t hold office hours on the weekend. Let’s hope that doesn’t mean bad news. Yet, the enchanted mirror next to the door, which serves kinda like a camera, showed me instead a tall, gaunt man in front of my door: Severus. I opened: “Hey” – I said. “Good Afternoon, [y/n].” – he replied. “I’m finished with my appointments today and wanted to tell you that I’ve found a potion that could help securing our classroom. I just checked with Pomfrey and Sprout and we indeed have all the ingredients for it. I think I could brew it until Monday.”

“Oh my God, that’s great!” – I replied. “Ehm.. would you like to come in? You can tell me more about it then. I’m intrigued. Thank you so much. Everyone supports me here, it’s overwhelming.. in a good way.” With that, I went back to my quarters and signalled him to follow me. He took a seat on the couch and I got some biscuits and drinks from the kitchen and put them on the table. After I sat down, he handed me an open book and pointed to the illustration of a potion on it. He explained to me how it works and how it leaves a trace on the perpetrator when he walks through it, which is invisible and can only be lifted by a spell. This spell can be modified during the creation of the potion and thus can only be used by its creator. It’s ingenious really. Complicated to make but I had full trust in Severus, who would surely have no difficulty brewing it.

After we agreed on the details on where and how to use it in my classroom, he told me more of his exchange with the Slytherin house last night. He told me, that some of them didn’t seem to be particularly shocked about the events but these were the students he knew to have a rather negative opinion about theatre. However, knowing that their own headteacher was on my side made them reluctant to give any rude comments. We talked a bit more about the beautiful edition of the potion book he had with him and did some more small talk about literature and the life of a teacher at Hogwarts. It felt so natural to talk to him. It was so easy and made so much fun. I decided it would be a good moment to ask about last night:

“I wanted to thank you again for yesterday. For the kind words and the delicious breakfast. May I ask you something though?”

“Speak your mind. No need for formalities.”

Ok, now comes the hard part. I sighed. “Were you nice to me only because you felt sorry? I mean, I fell asleep on you and you just let me without any complaints and you.. did take my..?”

He interjected suddenly: “I’m not sorry for anything and I certainly don’t feel the need to be friendly to anyone out of pity. I’d argue I didn’t give you any hints that this might be the case”

“But.. I mean, you were right. I was just.. the events of the day came all down on me in that moment. I realised how naïve I was to think that it wouldn’t happen here. I was also sad that I doubted myself so much after something like this. I will fight this. I will go on and hold my composure but it’s still.. difficult, you know? I didn’t have the right to load everything on you.”

“I offered you my ear, so it’s fine. I told you not to apologise for things that have been initiated and consented by me. And yes, it is difficult and it is frustrating. Yet, I’d rather have you here doing your work trying than simply giving in.”

“Thank you…” – I was really touched by this. No, don’t start crying again,don't be too emotional again. I still have questions to ask: “So, holding my hand wasn’t just an empty gesture out of the ‘How to comfort other people’ book?”

He sighed and slightly shook his head: “First of all, I wouldn’t read such a book and I doubt it exists. Second, I don’t need a handbook to know what people want or need to be comforted. I just often choose to ignore it for their sake. Third, I don’t hold hands with anyone as a purely performative gesture.”

“But does that mean you would hold my hand even if I wasn’t crying like a baby?”

“You weren’t crying like a baby. You were almost crying like a baby. But yes, Sherlock your deductive skills led to the right conclusion here: It would indeed ‘mean that’.”

“So………. you’d do it again?” – I asked curiously and looked at him way too happily.

“You’re insufferable do you know that? Are you not capable of asking directly if you want something specific?”

“And are you not capable of replying directly?”

“I don’t feel the need to spell out what is obvious. I don’t reward stupid questions.” - and with this he sighed, shook his head and took my hand again. This time was different. I wasn’t in a mood of despair; I didn’t need someone to get me grounded again. It was purely for pleasure. He looked down at the table but I could recognise the faintest blush on his face. His fingers were closely intertwined with mine. I could hear my heart beating up again and recognised him breathing slightly faster.

“This is nice.” – I said after a while.

“What a thoughtful observation.” - he said.

“Stop ruining the mood, Hamlet.” – and I sat closer to him. Once again, he let go of my hand and put his arm around me. He pulled me close, drawing circles on my shoulders. After some time, he took my other hand into his, looked at me and said quietly:

“You know. I’m not.. I didn’t join your group because I wanted anything of a superior motive. I truly want to support your cause, and these were always my intentions.”

“I know. Don’t worry about it.”

“In addition, I know I’m theoretically a perfect man.” – I rolled my eyes at this. “Yet, I don’t know if I... I’m not the best of keeping close relationships. I’m not the easiest man to be around. I don’t want to fool you.”

“I didn’t think so. It’s fine. To be honest, me neither. But I think we should just communicate, be honest with each other and see where it goes.” – I paused for a bit in thought. “Of course, if that’s what you also want...” Yes, just ruin anything brain. “Have you… had other relationships?”

He played a bit with my fingers and touched my hand softly: “Yes, I’m not a virgin if you mean that. But my former relationships either failed because I was.. frankly, a bit of an asshole, so there are on me. I don’t want to make these mistakes again. Others were nothing serious. My recent ones were more of a.. practical nature than an emotional one. They also have been some time ago, too. I assure you my intentions are not in that direction here. If I ever try again there should be more.”

“Same. My last relationship was very abusive. He didn’t respect me and I was too stupid to realise it sooner. Then I was alone for many years until I came here. Fiction is an escape for me in that regard. Drama, too. I thought when I leave my last working place, my home, my town.. I’d escape it all. In addition, I kind of gave up on love and dating and stuff.” – I sighed, realising I was sitting here with arms around me, holding hands with a man, which can definitely be identified as ‘love, dating’ and stuff’. The irony. I chuckled to myself.

“What’s so amusing?” – he asked.

“Well, guess at the moment I’m not really behaving like I might have given up on love.”

“I know that feeling.” – he said quietly and turned his head to my side. I could feel his breath on my hair and I wondered if he wanted to kiss me right now. Because damn I’d love to do that. For now though, this was perfect.

https://izetarion.tumblr.com/post/189410998186/theres-two-versions-of-adam-taurus?is_liked_post=1

Monty!Adam: Created by Monty Oum, a minority. Focused on the Faunus, while wanting to get back at the humans for their mistreatment of his kind, a man of revolution who was focused on the safety of his people - seen as how he was strong-armed into working with Cinder Fall after getting her maiden powers, wasn’t so psychopathic that he would turn on his own kind and kill humans out of sheer glee (seen with Cinder and her lot, as he gave them a chance to leave), prioritizes the cause over a cat girl, who was his student - sharing a “student-mentor” relationship as established by the show’s creator as well as said cat girl (“Forget it! It’s time I headed back to Mistral!”), has a legitimate reason to hate humans - especially those affiliated with the Schnee Dust Company, very charismatic, somewhat of a fallen mentor figure given the way the catgirl described him, his cause steadily consuming him (“I had someone I care for, who changed…”), is one of the most popular male characters in the series in the first half of RWBY - despite having little screentime, has an aesthetically-pleasing look to him, compared to DMC!Vergil and Jetstream Sam - two of the most iconic video game characters, in terms of looks and fighting style, Adam Taurus fans signs his adoption papers so that Miles and Kerry would never touch him. People use this version in their fanfics and RPs, turning him into a redeemable person while still keeping his morally grey aspects. Tauradonna is more mutual than lovey-dovey.

Okay so let’s break this down and show this is bullshit.

“Focused on the Fanaus-”

He is never shown to actually help any Fanaus and all White Fang activity, ESPECIALLY in Volumes 1 and 2, revolves around fucking over human. In fact, considering Tuskon, the fact that Vale does not have discrimination against Fanaus and V1 E1 openly says a peaceful protest of Fanaus was interrupted by the WF (” In other news, this Saturday's Faunus Civil Rights protest turned dark when members of the White Fang disrupted the ceremony. The once peaceful organization has now disrupted...”): Adam has acted AGAINST the Fanaus since LITERALLY the first episode.

“A man of revolution who was focused on the safety of his people-”

Which is why, in an EARLIER episode than the one you cite (Volume 2 Episode 12 meaning MONTY was in charge here as we know since he was cited with putting in the Raven scene in the SAME EPISODE against Miles and Kerry’s wishes): Adam gave no shits about his men DYING when he openly said he’d convince them to work with Cinder without so much as a glare at her. BTW, Adam specifically cited Cinder being HUMAN for the reason why he didn’t want to kill his men (’I won’t sacrifice my men for a human cause’). If the human part wasn’t the reason why he wasn’t agreeing with Cinder, why would his dialogue not be ‘I won’t sacrifice my men, no matter what.”?

“ wasn’t so psychopathic that he would turn on his own kind and kill humans out of sheer glee (seen with Cinder and her lot, as he gave them a chance to leave)-”

Nuh uh, in the same Volume Adam out right STABS Blake and says he wants to destroy everything she loves, in the previous Volume he didn’t care about his men dying and said nothing about trying to DESTROY VALE killing THOUSANDS if not MILLIONS of people (including FANAUS) and at the VERY beginning, he tried to blow up a train car full of people who hadn’t even raised a finger against him even though, as Blake shows, he could have detached the train.

“ prioritizes the cause over a cat girl, who was his student - sharing a “student-mentor” relationship as established by the show’s creator as well as said cat girl (“Forget it! It’s time I headed back to Mistral!”),”

Except that, again. Adam STABS Blake and outright shows malice towards her in the SAME VOLUME, Arkos shows mentorship and romance are NOT exclusive and even THAT line is delivered with Adam looking furious clearly showing he’s hung up about Blake.

“ has a legitimate reason to hate humans - especially those affiliated with the Schnee Dust Company-”

Not really, especially since Adam was shown to be selfish in previous Volumes so why would he care about other people? In fact, the ‘fuckboi’ Adam you’ll bitch about later has the reason to hate humans, especially those with the SDC. This version, since he’s apparently completely seperate, is just racist.

“very charismatic”

Never shown OR said. Just projecting.

“ somewhat of a fallen mentor figure given the way the catgirl described him,”

Notice how here they don’t actually say WHAT the description is despite KNOWING about quotes? That’s because there’s nothing actually said in the show that is ambiguously about a mentorship.

“ his cause steadily consuming him (“I had someone I care for, who changed…”)”

Doesn’t prove anything AND it coinsides with ‘fuckboi’ Adam.

“ is one of the most popular male characters in the series in the first half of RWBY - despite having little screentime,”

So is Kirito, wanna guess what V1-2 Adam and Kirito have in common? They don’t have defined personality and their popularity came from people projecting onto them.

“ has an aesthetically-pleasing look to him, compared to DMC!Vergil and Jetstream Sam - two of the most iconic video game characters, in terms of looks and fighting style”

Both of which are incredibly common in anime.

“ Adam Taurus fans signs his adoption papers so that Miles and Kerry would never touch him”

Too bad according to you, they weren’t the ones who ruined Adam. No no, your issues, as I have shown, existed with MONTY. So you better start smack talking him... what’s that, if you did that you couldn’t profit off his name and his fanboys would rip you to shreds? Maybe you shouldn’t be a disingenuous fuck.

‘ People use this version in their fanfics and RPs,’

And people turn Jaune into a generic self insert and Ruby into an edgy angsty psuedo anti hero- that means nothing.

“ turning him into a redeemable person while still keeping his morally grey aspects.”

So basically making him a generic anti villian instead of a tragic case of someone not being able to get over their past tramua.

“ Tauradonna is more mutual than lovey-dovey.”

And it’s more ‘abusive’ than mutual.

Fuckboi!Adam: Created by Miles and Kerry, two amateurish white guys noted for writing sub-par comedy segments and part of the upper echelons of Rooster Teeth. Born out of the criticism of “show, don’t tell aspect” of the show - barely having any visible evidence of Faunus racism, born out of the two admitting they couldn’t write a racism sub-plot - despite having the money and resources to do so, established as an abuser by CRWBY and demonized heavily by them and the fanbase despite little evidence of such prior to because of catgirl’s various descriptions of him pointing towards someone “dear” (“More of a mentor, actually…”), “hElLo, My LoVe!” “tHe bElLaDoNnAs HaVe CaUsEd Me NoThInG bUt GrIeF!”, “sO i JuSt wAsN’t GoOd EnOuGh FoR yOu.”, A fedora wearing crazed nazi ex-boyfriend, DMC-Reboot!Vergil but with the edgelord turned to 11, “Tauradonna? More like Tauradon’t!”, How many zippers does your dumbass outfit need? lol, Why did your voice crack?, Even his own VA hate him, Is an incel-ass bitch, Gaston apparently, Lol he’s attempting the birdbox challenge, That stupid ass face reveal did nothing as the damage was done, The fandom - primarily BMBLB, and CRWBY sing of his death (“Ding-dong the bitch is dead!”) - with the BMBLB fandom using his death as major evidence of their ship becoming canon. Also, his death caused such dissonance in the fandom that shit hit the fan in all kinds of ways, not to mention his death started the slow deterioration of RT - embodying the spite element that Blake attributed him, probably because he was pissed at CRWBY to the point where his hatred manifested as a curse - causing their various injustices against their employees to come out and be heavily criticized as a result (No, seriously, RT is visibly crumbling shortly after his demise).

“ Created by Miles and Kerry-”

And yet will somehow completely overlap with the Volumes Monty had the most control over.

“ two amateurish white guys”

Miles is part Mexician.

“ noted for writing sub-par comedy segments”

While Monty is noted for never writing whatsoever so i guess that means you think Miles and Kerry are better.

“ Born out of the criticism of “show, don’t tell aspect” of the show - barely having any visible evidence of Faunus racism, born out of the two admitting they couldn’t write a racism sub-plot - despite having the money and resources to do so,”

The criticism being located SOLELY in Volumes 1 and 2 Aka MONTY.

“ established as an abuser by CRWBY and demonized heavily by them and the fanbase despite little evidence of such prior to because of catgirl’s various descriptions of him pointing towards someone “dear” (“More of a mentor, actually…”)’“

You know...despite the fact that every single aspect of Adam’s character has been shown WITH MONTY, as I showed above.

“ “hElLo, My LoVe!” “

Located in Volume 3, which you cite as a Volume where ‘Monty!’ Adam existed.

“ “tHe bElLaDoNnAs HaVe CaUsEd Me NoThInG bUt GrIeF!” “

Huh, if you spelled “Belladonna” as “Miles and Kerry”, that sounds an awful lot like you...oh

“ “sO i JuSt wAsN’t GoOd EnOuGh FoR yOu.” “

They scream as Rooster Teeth ignores them.

“ A fedora wearing crazed nazi ex-boyfriend”

Never actually shown wearing a fedora or ever showing any personbality traits associated with it...but then again, you know what they say about mirrors...

Also at least it’s better than ‘blank edgy emo teen’ he was in Volume 3 which you loved apparently.

“ DMC-Reboot!Vergil but with the edgelord turned to 11″

Uh oh, Op’s brain rotted so he can’t actually make arguments....oh wait, he was always like that.

“ “Tauradonna? More like Tauradon’t!” “

So basically ‘wah wah wah. my otp is not canon’.

“ How many zippers does your dumbass outfit need?”

Dunno, why is wearing a tux as a freedom fighter and sticks out like a sore thumb?

“ Why did your voice crack?”

Why did he sound fourteen in Volume 3?

“ Even his own VA hate him,”

Ever since Volume 3 which you cite as “Monty!Adam”

“ Is an incel-ass bitch, Gaston apparently”

Or you know, a Beats who never grew up and never became a better person. But who needs insight?

“ Lol he’s attempting the birdbox challenge”

*insert Family Guy skit here*

“ hat stupid ass face reveal did nothing as the damage was done”

They say as most of the fandom did a 180 on how they view his character and gave him more justification for his actions than “Monty” Adam ever had.

“ he fandom - primarily BMBLB, and CRWBY sing of his death (“Ding-dong the bitch is dead!”)”

Which considering he was meant to be hated is a GOOD thing.

“ with the BMBLB fandom using his death as major evidence of their ship becoming canon”

Basically ‘wah wah wah make MY otp canon”

“ Also, his death caused such dissonance in the fandom that shit hit the fan in all kinds of ways”

all kinds being two ways: accepting it and throwing a fit because you didn’t get your way. Also inadvertently justifying wasps being assholes because they did the same thing during Volumes 4 and 5.

“ t to mention his death started the slow deterioration of RT - embodying the spite element that Blake attributed him, probably because he was pissed at CRWBY to the point where his hatred manifested as a curse - causing their various injustices against their employees to come out and be heavily criticized as a result (No, seriously, RT is visibly crumbling shortly after his demise).”

And said curse infected many of his fans where they all became monsters after his death like say, using the suffering of others AND THE DEAD *cough* MONTY *cough* all over a fictional character that didn’t even exist because as I have shown Adam is completely consistent with his characterization from the Black Trailer to his death. Something I am certain OP knows deep down because half way through this point they completely abandon any attempt at actually proving what they are saying to instead spout a bunch of memes in a vain attempt to appeal to people’s confirmation bias because they can’t actually make an argument to prove Adam had changed AT ALL, especially since their obsessive behavior, attempt at creating an abusive/parasitic relationship with RT and their own childishness has all but prove Adam is in no way unrealistic as they act like him except with NO justification whatsoever.

But sure, scream loud enough and people will think you’re right. That hasn’t BACKFIRED before.

HELLO I ADORE YOUR OCS SO MUCH WILL YOU TELL ME ABOUT KAI HE LOOKS LIKE A TOTAL "YOUR DAUGHTER CALLS ME DADDY TOO" DOUCHEBAG AND I FUCKING LOVE HIM AND WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT HIM

LBLMVBGK THANK U OMG love it when ppl like my kids, im a proud dad rn

ALSO wrow congrats on ur on point analysis, cause, that’s the Essence Of His Being (fun fact since i got two characters who go by the name of kai -cause fuck that basic writing tip that says ‘dont have two characters named the same thing- i usually refer to him as The Bad Kai cuz he a bad bitch)

so lets unwrap that dude shall we uwu

SO this dude was created when i realised my story didnt have antagonists so i made a bunch of Bad People and then they all became good people after i started giving them more personnality somehow eXCEPt him for some reason, the only survivor of the “everyone will be baby” plague, the only rude bitch in this house, the only guy who’s still on the dark grey side of morally grey...but tbh im in love with him cause he’s an asshole and im an idiot so like.

His base concept was basically something along the lines of “fuckboy but make it Couture”, like douchebag indeed But Gotta Be Fancy at being one, gotta add a pinch of Sneaky Bitch in the pot. His aesthetic is Chillin, gettin in ur pants, then moving on for some more chillin and more pants. So if you’re into some funky sexy time with no pressure and no ties, ya gon get along, your goals meet, time to have fun.

All that is supported by his charisma, cause unless ya got some nasty history, he’ll just look like that charming bad-boy “oho hot dude with a dangerous but not agressive” vibed person, and he’s quite a sweet-talker. He’s probs not only the ‘your daughter calls me daddy’ kind but also ‘and so will YOU, i’m scoring with the whole family and you wont stop me (and you wont WANT to stop me)’

He got that handsome ppl priviledge ya feel

but also, he wouldnt be a rude guy if he was just the ‘i enjoy chill frick-fracking and im just so sexy that no one can say no to that booty’ guy

Dude got quiiite some spite-fueled ego and Does Not Take losing well, and will not, in fact, let himself lose on any objective he has, and when that objective is A Person, he gets ugly. Being good at sweet talking also means being good at small stuff like “not saying exactly the truth always when it would be more beneficial not to”, “deliberately using euphemistic, ambiguous or obscure language so to mask wrong doings and technically saying the truth but in such a way that it becomes completely masked by a thick fog of bullshit”, and “use words and behaviour in general to influence others unscrupulously so to get something in return”. Even a little “playing with their perception in order to make them doubt in their thoughts and selves”. In short dude got no qualms about using all the tools of manipulation available if it means that he comes on top (or on bottom if the goal was getting an assful eeeeeey we’re masters of comedy here) It tends to be all for short term results tho, so not much your ‘boyfriend who convinces you you’re nothing without him” and more of a “you thought you were dating but only you were thinking that as he always kept it just vague enough to have you not official yet convinced of his and now you’re blaming yourself for believing you were together”

master of getting ass, also master of Ugly Ass Breakups, and master of suddenly dissapearing from your life so hard that you wonder if it was just your imagination all along (he got ugly past with a bunch of other ocs especially he’s ex boyfriend with two that are now together cause i dig that sort of drama the sAME dUDe gave u the trust issues that held u from going full lovey dovey ? i fucking lIVE off that kinda shit wait until he pops back like ‘oho hello fancy seeing YOU TWO here my two fave exes together incredible what a small world”)

Though I have to rework on all that cause that backstory is oLD AS SHIT (like prolly i built it in what, 2016? ew ugly) I had that stem from some sort of neglect-fueled inferiority complex. I had given him a kinda cold family with a bunch of siblings who got Way More Nurtured due to their respective talents and achievements, having him left behind and feeling like he got nothing. SO that’s basically the explanation as of today but i dont like iiiiit anymooooore so I’ll have to work on it to make it something i dig, cause idk, bitch feels flat so far.

BUT i do intend on keeping the whole concept of ~Loneliness~, and of him working alone and quite hard for anything he gets. And the general need of proving himself that had come from the WIP backstory. I don’t exactly see him as an overachiever at all, but definitly as an obstinate and persevering hardworking guy, because “Look YALL I WAS aBLE TO DO THIS YALL THOUGHT I COULDNT HUH YALL LOOK DOWN ON ME well fuck u cause idc im better than u now also ur mum’s into bondage i kno from experience bye”. So tbh pair up with him for group projects, you’ll be sure his share of the work will be done (but also if you dont do yours then he’s probably going to be a bITCh about it, no remorse in leaving blank slides in the middle of the powerpoint and then loudly proclaiming ‘OH RIGHT This was supposed to be Kevin’s part but I suppose he never sent it to me, despite the numerous reminders i sent him, no big deal, no hard feelings, its ok sweetie we all sometimes feel too lazy i forgive u :)” )

Also he’d be Chill to hang out with for like, parties, nights out at the bar, that kinda shit. He definetly has some beans to spill about quite some people, he gathers the goss as he gathers lovers (i was gonna end that in “as he spreads legs” but it sounded too PG-18 for this good Well Behaved family friendly blog) and Will Not stay tight lipped, and Will be a bitch when trashtalking people, and It Will Be Entertaining as it always is when you’re hearing about crazy exes and you’ve had some beers.

Now trivia that idk where else to write cause idk i stupid or more like disorganised :

- he digs red ale beer like if ya wanna win him over with the appropriate alcohol offer there u go

- he’s a fake blonde (cause my hobby is painting regrowth roots on hair)

- his design is a mixture of those 3dgy denim boys u see on pinterest and the specific brand of fuckboys that are french-L-section-chic-grunge-hipster-fuckboys (L section is like a branch of highschool)(that word combo is a so specific kinda guy)(its kinda like a softboi but more arrogant but in a lowkey way)(also they rich)(but he’s not rich so guess that should make him Less Arrogant)

-im constantly dead afraid of giving him more characteristics and story or whatveer cause he’s the only meanie i got left and i do Not want him to stop being an asshole but everytime i develop a character they end up nice or redeemed or whatever and i wanna keep him a bitch so i neglect him (just like his parents in his 2016 version wow)

he smokes (prolly started quite early to Be Kool and now relies on it for stress relief)

he’s outspoken and extraverted and prolly the guy who had a lot to say when you were doing debates in class (there’s always that person who has a Lot to argument about)(its him) but outside of a Set and Defined debate structure he probably doesnt give his mind voraciously

he’s a law student and despite saying he’s the one bad guy left he probably wont be a corrupt lawyer or judge or whatever like come on he will do his job properly he worked hARD FOR THIS justice may be served

he’s not the kind to openly hate or even dislike anyone cause what’s the point of wasting your energy on that? its much funnier to him to be obnoxiously Neutral with someone and basically ignore them but still strike them with some Spikes of passive-agressive comments, let them be Mad at your calmness

he’s 177cm tall (that’s like 5.8 according to google)

honestly if you’re bros with him he’s fun to be with the being a jerk is completly coincidental

he probably ranks high in the list of “those criminals who steal big lighters from their friends”

i think at a point his design had tattoos but i forgot the designs of those so now he doesnt anymore

a dog person

i think ive run out of facts (or my brain dead) so im leavin with a shirtless pic cause my hobby is drawing tits

in short, charming asshole who can get ugly, secretly feels lonely and small, works hard for himself, better have him as a friend than as a foe though probably not the most frontally agressive enemy, and also, your booty, hand it over.

#people probably excuse his naughty behaviour bc of his looks and that's the fact

OK. That’s it. I can’t take it anymore. I have to say it...write it, whatever. KUROSAKI ICHIGO IS NOT DENSE. He gets it, ok?! He knows. HE JUST WANTS PEOPLE TO STOP PUSHING HIM AND MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS.

For example, he knew for a long time about Orihime’s feeling for him. It was obvious for everyone, for him too even if he didn’t openly act about them for many reasons, yet some kept pushing him like they always do. He maybe knew even from the soul society arc, and if not, then Orihime’s confession before leaving to Hueco Mundo (which HE DID REMEMBER, first as a dream, then realized she was really there that night because his wounds were healed and could still feel her spiritual pressure on his wrist) made it clear. Why he did not act on about Orihime’s feelings like others wanted him, only Kubo himself can truly say but I’ll give my own guesses.

First, this is a shounen anime, not a slice of life, shoujo, romantic comedy etc.. Second, Ichigo’s personality. While Orihime’s feelings surface more easily, sometimes despite her own will, Ichigo is better at keeping his thoughts and feelings to himself. I don’t know for sure if he was shy about it, but he purposely chose to ignore the people pushing him about Orihime. In Japan, despite what anime and fanfiction shows us so often, romantic relationships during school years are considered detrimental to education so they are not encouraged. I don’t know if this really applies to Bleach, but Lisa had him go buy her porn magazines and Ichigo said he can’t legally buy them because he is underage and he only accompanied Shinji to the bookstore to shut her up, so laws for minors still apply at least and Ichigo is a good boy, not really interested in naked ladies (Yoruichi traumatized him enough, for comedy purposes, yet it worked so well because of Ichigo’s shy? personality and she KNEW it). He also had his own problems to deal with before entering a relationship. Becoming a shinigami and doing substitute work, learning to deal with his inner hollow, saving Rukia, saving Soul Society (several times), saving the world(s), saving himself from his depression (it rains a lot in his inner world), learning about himself and about his parents, getting a job, dealing with Xcution.... Ichigo had it rough for a teenager from the beginning and shouldn’t be blamed that he didn’t had time for romance. He had to fight a lot to get some peace, and settle down where he wanted, with who he wanted. He is not the type that would half-heartedly get into a relationship, he needed to set everything in place first. Of course, in all that turmoil he had to go save her too. At this point I think I have to clarify that I am under no circumstance suggesting that Orihime was like a reward or that all he did was for her, he wanted to protect everyone. Having any of his friends or family members missing in the end would have been a failed mission. Getting back to the topic, Ichigo was not written as a dense character, only the other characters would sometimes consider him dense and push him especially about the Orihime issue in an attempt to create a humorous moment (or so they thought because they overdid it so much it’s not funny anymore if it ever was). Recently, if we are to consider what happens in Bleach Brave Souls game as cannon, Shinji kept pushing Ichigo in the chocolate shop where they happened to meet Orihime, Ichigo ignored him at first, then he asked him to stop because he gets it – Orihime likes him, she might be there to buy him chocolates (which he might know its bullshit cuz Orihime would not buy him chocolates, she would make them herself), if she does and if he gives her anything back is their own damn business and not Shinji’s, not anyone else’s. That’s it. It’s so simple. Ichigo doesn’t act like a lovey-dovey teenager, he doesn’t act like a dense guy either, he acts like his love life is no one else’s business.

Submission - relationship problems that are driving me insane and could hurt someone i care about

For the record, I’ll just have you know I’m a girl in high school who’s DEFINITELY somewhere on the spectrum of asexuality (I’m not aromantic and I’ve masturbated multiple times in the past and I’m pretty sure I’m bi but with a romantic preference for guys…but if I were to ever do something physical I’d probably prefer it with a girl tbh?? idk if that’s weird or if that information was neccessary but in case it helps)

So I’m kind of in a relationship with this guy, and trust me, he’s amazing. He’s extremely caring and compassionate and loves me very much. Of course, he wants to get physically intimate (nothing huge, just maybe hand holding or hugging or cuddling or whatever). We’re both fifteen and very socially awkward nerds, and openly aware of it. Neither of us have kissed anyone yet, like not at all, and he’s asked multiple times if he can kiss me, and every single time I’ve turned him down. We have many deep philosophical conversations, also some about science and politics (though he knows a lot more than I do), and he’s just truly profound and brilliant and emotional but rational. He’s very empathic, open minded and understanding, guided by a strong moral compass…not to mention he’s a huuuuge meat lover and I’m actually succeeding in turning him vegan (logic and ethics always get to him). Thing is, I’m not easily fooled by men and their lies. I’m fully conscious when someone is acting/lying or gold-digging, and when I’m being manipulated, and I’ve known this guy VERY WELL for like two years now. We were best friends before we decided to tell each other how we feel, and he is very honest and sincere. He doesn’t try to act like something he’s not and while he’s polite, he truly doesn’t care what others think of him. We’ve both had psychological problems in the past and have counselled each other and helped each other through it (although I think I’ve helped him a lot more than he’s helped me. He’s been in a constant depressive state for like three years and honestly probably would’ve still been really depressed and unhappy if I hadn’t come along…obviously a three-year depression can’t go away completely just like that but for the first time in forever he’s really, truly happy). I make him incredibly happy and I know how much he loves me. In fact, he knows I’m uncomfortable with physical affection and is literally willing to wait as long as it takes for me. I mean, dude. The guy is fucking amazing. He’s super clingy and mushy and lovey-dovey and he knows I hate that shit so he’s trying to cut down on it as much as possible and give me space to let me breathe, and he’s in it for the long term. Dude. He actually wants to spend the rest of his life with me and no other girl.

But.

Here’s the big fat fucking problem. There’s two obstacles in the way of our happiness together. There’s me. There’s my fucked up mind. I’ve done this before with another guy, who actually happens to be one of his friends. See, this guy was (is) smart, and although he’s not as deep and philosophical as my current “boyfriend”, he was super chill and understanding. Truly amazing. He liked me for exactly who I was and constantly told me I was beautiful and smart, that I was worth it and enough and deserved the best. Kind of like my current boyfriend, he reassured me and reminded me to love myself and help me get over some fears of mine. 10/10 Tumblr’s dream boyfriend. And I eventually got bored of him somehow. My attraction began to fade until I had no romantic feelings for him whatsoever and I dumped him. The worst part is that I didn’t even dump him. I just ignored him until he got the hint. He picked up on it pretty quickly, too. After a few days of texting “I love you, I don’t want to lose you, I feel like you don’t like me anymore, what’s wrong, are you okay?” he finally just gave up. I avoided him like the plague until time made us strangers again, and now the two of us don’t acknowledge the past at all. It’s like it never happened. We just pretend it never existed and have never mentioned the giant elephant in the room, and now we just hang out regularly with our group of friends and joke like we used to.

First obstacle, like I said, is my fucked up mind. Here’s the thing about me. I’m what people call a heartbreaker, which honestly sounds cool and sexy and glamorous, the way strong empowered women who eat men for breakfast are glorified in edgy pop songs, but it’s honestly a psychological problem. And I’m not popular or slutty or anything, I’m just one of those girls, a tease who doesn’t know what the fuck she wants. And I don’t want to be one of those fantasy tough badass bitches that every heartbroken girl aspires to be, those who chew hearts up, spit them out and leave them in the dust. I don’t want to hurt good people. My current boyfriend doesn’t deserve me, but he also doesn’t deserve getting his heart broken. And I’m terrified because I can practically feel how crushed he’d be. He’d never get over it. If I dumped him, it would haunt him forever and I’d lose my best friend because we won’t be able to talk openly anymore. I’ll heal eventually (pretty soon actually), but he’d never be the same.

Another thing. I have really severe anxiety, multiple forms of it diagnosed by a professional, and avoidant personality disorder. I don’t confront my problems. Anything even slightly out of my comfort zone, I just can’t face directly. I can’t even present in front of a class. Today I cut class cause of a presentation I was totally ready for…I literally had like eleven lines of dialogue…but I skipped because the class was full of judgemental ass Enhanced students who already knew I was like four levels dumber than them. I just couldn’t deal with it. I avoid everything and then it just piles up until I just break down and have a serious twenty-minute panic attack.

Not to mention I’m super weird with affection and don’t want to hug or cuddle or hold hands or god forbid kiss, let alone do anything even remotely sexual. I just don’t like other people touching me. Romantic physical gestures just make me tense up and I get super awkward. Now, I’m not sure if my asexual ass is just wired this way or if I’m just really young and inexperienced and will get used to it in time. Maybe it’s cause I’m fifteen and overthink everything and am always super uncomfortable, or maybe this condition is permanent. Either way, I also fear longterm commitment

Okay. Second obstacle.

Of course, there’s another guy.

This guy I’ve liked for almost five years. Literally, since the first day of middle school when I first laid eyes on him, I was completely infatuated. All my dreams and fantasies were of him. Like, in my mind, we have already been married for decades and had three children (okay not literally, my biggest fear is actually having kids…my worst nightmares are of pregnancy and labor and giving birth and raising human beings and paying rent/taxes/bills and public transit and adulting but you get what I’m saying).

And guess what? My current boyfriend and I officially started going out the day after Valentine’s Day, this year. Because on Valentine’s Day, I found out the love of my life had a girlfriend.

(Actually, he has multiple flings and one girl I think is serious, but she’s long distance and both of them are perfectly okay with each other hooking up with other people while they’re not in the same country. Every year he goes overseas for the summer and during the summer they’re an official couple, but every other day of the year they literally tell each other everything. Like about the different people in their life and who they’ve hooked up with, and they’re both perfectly fine with it for some reason?? I don’t get it. It’s not even a polyamorous relationship. The guy just has a bunch of side hoes who he feels no emotional attatchment to…and, he reassured me, it’s completely mutual…and he just sometimes gets physical with when he’s lonely. But all of them know they’re not the only girls in his life and are okay with it because he’s also not the only guy in their life and they don’t like each other, they just make out or whatever?? Honestly, I don’t understand how it works at all but whatever.)

So my dilemma is that you can’t get over a crush…just like that. And the funny thing is, my current boyfriend is the only reason that middle school crush of mine even knows I exist now.

Okay, I think I should start using code names now;

X = current boyfriend, Y = middle school crush with a lot of side chicks

It’s hilarious because Y is the hot popular stereotypical fuckboy (or at least I thought he was…he’s not as shallow or superficial, and he’s aware of his ego and tries his best not to act as entitled/obnoxious as those douchebag friends of his that he doesn’t even like, and he’s actually really emotional but doesn’t show it and never lets himself be vulnerable) and he never once batted an eye in my direction, and NOW we are actually really good fucking friends.

All because of X.

See, X knew I liked Y, and although he liked me (a lot!), he pushed those feelings aside to help set me up with Y, because he considered my happiness more important than his own (and still does, which is why it’s so difficult to ever break his heart and I feel ridiculously guilty for even thinking like this). He got us talking, and now although Y is one of those hypersocial extroverts that adapts to their environment really easily and can fit in literally anywhere (the guy doesn’t have a specific clique, he can literally just hang out with anyone), he actually chooses to spend his lunches with my group of friends. And I’m not trying to make it sound like he’s gracing us with his superior presence and aura of popularity and coolness. He genuinely enjoys our company. I’ve noticed that although he’s ultracool and popular and everyone wants to hang out with him, he’s always just wandering alone with his earbuds in. Guy’s a loner by choice because he’s sick of his usual crowds…they’re either street thugs, drug lords and juvenile delinquents who are a really bad influence on him (I’m talking like the actual hood here, filled with criminals, gangfights and crystal meth), or the seriously dumb brain-fried stoners who do nothing but play video games and talk shit (these people are seriously stupid…they can barely form coherent sentences and have all dropped out of or failed school) OR the plastic popular crowd (who are all super fake, self centred and obsessed with their image).

He’s been making an effort to distance himself from these people. And it’s not that he’s one of us now. He’s not a meme-obsessed nerd who always cracks sick jokes about drugs and sex but has literally zero experience with any of it, because although we all have a dark, dry, fucked up sense of humor, we work hard, care about school and homework/chores and family duties, and get good grades, alwhile having our own geeky hobbies and quirks and pleasures, like computer programming or gaming or music or visual art and Photoshop. (X and my ex are both into computer programming, although X is a lot better and is basically kind of a genius when it comes to computer tech and programming. Y is a pitch perfect musical prodigy who composes amazing songs, can pick up on the chords to a new one in five minutes after listening to it for the first time, and can play the guitar and harmonica at the same time expertly. They’re both super talented and passionate about these things. If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about their personalities, I don’t know what will.)

Sorry. I’m getting too into detail

Thing is, I don’t think I love either of them. Or I might love both of them in different ways. But the thing is, I don’t know what love is. I don’t know if I can love. And I want to be loyal and devoted to X and love him as much as he loves me but it’s so damn hard with Y around. I don’t think I love Y as much as I love the idea of Y. I just love the way Y makes me feel. He’s kind of unstable and unpredictable (exactly the kind of wild mad love affair you want in high school but won’t last a day after grad) and a life with him would be fun. I’d never be bored, and I’d constantly feel the same rush of adrenaline I’ve always felt around him. You know, the typical stomach butterflies and pounding/racing heart and blood rushing to your brain, making you act crazy and be bold and do daring things. I’m somewhat of a thrill seeker.

But here’s the thing.

A relationship with Y, any plain fool could see, will not last. Let’s say, hypothetically, he does feel something for me. (He probably doesn’t, although X and my best female friend have said they’ve noticed something different about his behavior around me.) What then? We flirt, he gets me to smoke a joint or two, then eventually he pushes for deeper physical intimacy and I’m super nervous around him and want to take it ridiculously slow (because, let’s face it…if I’m uncomfortable doing anything with X, I’ll be awkward and self conscious as hell with Y). After a while, he gets tired of my unwillingness to reciprocate his sexual needs and calls up one of the many girls waiitng in line.

Now, I’m not saying he’d do this. He himself has told me today that he doesn’t want a romantic relationship at the moment, just light flings that everyone’s chill with, but if he were to meet a girl he was serious about spending the rest of his life with, he would immediately tell all of his Saturday night hookups that he has a girlfriend and he would be committed in the long term. But I have trust issues bordering on paranoia. I’m suspicious of everyone. Especially him.

A relationship with X, however.

X isn’t as physically attractive as Y is. Y is tall and blond and toned and takes great care of his appearance. He works out at the gym and has a haircut that costs more than ten bucks and actually wears clothes that he knows make him look hot. X actually has a very handsome facial structure and in ten, twenty, thirty years, X is going to fill out his scrawny skin-and-bones build and look a lot better than Y will.

And I know he loves me and cares for me and will never leave me, no matter what, or try to push me out of my comfort zone or make me do anything I don’t want to do. He wants what’s best for me and just wants me to be happy and healthy, even if it means sacrificing his own best interests in the process. That I can be sure of. The guy has no ulterior motives. He’s genuine and open and tells me things even if it’s embarrassing (and honestly sometimes I wish he would know where to draw a line when sharing shit, if you know what I mean). And unlike hedonistic Y, who drinks and smokes, X cares way too much about his neurons and physical/mental health in general to do anything like that.

Now, you probably see no dilemma. You’re thinking, “What the fuck is wrong with this kid? Where the fuck was X when I was in high school? Is X even real? He’s literally every girl’s dream. Y is a self destructive brain damaged stereotypical misogynistic fuckboy and that will never change.”

Well, it’s the current way they make me feel.

X was the best best friend I could ask for, back when we were nothing but best friends. He was someone I shared a deep bond with, a very close personal connection that was definitely more than platonic. There was always this chemistry. We just clicked.

But right now, he’s starting to bum me out. And no. It’s definitely not him. It’s just me. I know everyone’s heard this a million times but it’s true. He’s not doing anything wrong or different. His presence is simply smothering. I feel like I can’t breathe. (Not in a romantic way. In a miserably suffocating way.)

I have no idea what’s wrong with me or why I feel this way. It’s entirely possible that I only feel like this because I’m not quite over Y yet, and if I just give it time and hang on for a few more months, I’ll forget about Y and learn to truly appreciate X.

But what if I don’t? What if we just grow so distant that in the end I push him away completely because I can’t having Y so close yet so far away?

(Okay, this is starting to sound really dramatic and edgy. But seriously.)

My dilemma is that if I dump X, he’ll be heartbroken and I won’t be able to live with myself (okay not literally but the guilt would drive me insane) and he’d be really depressed (which he doesn’t deserve and goddammit I love him, I don’t want him to be unhappy). But stay with X and not tell him anything, I’LL be unhappy. I’ll suffer because Y, the guy I’ve been hopelessly in love with since the beginning of time, the guy I’ve always dreamt was my soulmate and would be my forever, is standing right there just out of reach…not to mention it would be horribly unfair to X to hide and pretend and act like everything’s okay. I’d be living a lie.

(And the worst part, if I cheat on X with Y. Like, what the fuck am I thinking?? Who am I anymore??? Don’t worry, I’m definitely not actually planning on doing it. Ever. I’d hate myself forever.)

Either way this goes, I’m guilty. I’m either a cheater, a liar, or a heartbreaker. Whichever way this goes, I’m a horrible person.

Unless we go for the scariest but most morally right scenario. I tell X exactly what’s going on. We talk about it, then I decide if I should tell Y. The problem is, this road is so unpredictable, full of twists and turns. It’s ethical, but it’s terrifying and could result in tension all around.

My question is; seriously, is there ANY way to deal with this where EVERYONE is happy??

(I’ll take “moderately content” by this point.)

It was extremely difficult to admit my feelings to myself. I know it’s wrong. That’s why I’m writing you. I’m so sorry about this long-ass novel. It probably sounds like the most dramatic clichè ever but human emotions are a lot more complicated than that and I want to know how to be happy without hurting anyone, because so far, every scenario I’ve played out in my head, no one really wins. I really need advice on this from someone older and more experienced. Insight from multiple sources with different opinions would be very much appreciated. Thank you so much for this blog, and for taking the time to actually read through all of this. Sorry it’s so long.

(P.S. I think I forgot to mention that X and I are kind of the unofficial school therapists. Everyone trusts X 100%, and he knows literally everyone’s deepest darkest secrets and has never uttered a word about them to anyone. Also, a lot of people seem to think I’m trustworthy and confide in me, although I see myself as somewhat of a mild gossip, and they seek help from me. Y is currently my only “patient”. He has a serious weed problem and has even considered mushrooms once but I talked him out of it, thankfully. He lives for new psychedelic/spiritual experiences and I’m helping him quit smoking and develop a more sensible, stable mindset. My “nurturing methods”, as he called them, are quite effective, according to him, and although I don’t see much progress, he claims I’ve helped him a lot since we met.

P.P.S. You know how I cut class today? I skipped with him and we had a very long and enlightening conversation and he told me a bunch of personal stuff and then I kind of told him about my problem with X and relationships in general. I said I wasn’t affectionate or romantic and didn’t like clingy partners and always pushed people away, but I didn’t tell him he was a big part of the reason my attraction to X was fading. Seriously. I’d rather die. And now Y and my mother are the only humans on earth who know X and I are drifting apart.

P.P.P.S. Y told me to keep X. He told me that he could see how much X loved me and how happy I made him, and that he didn’t deserve to be dumped like that, all of which I already knew and made me feel worse because he was right. Then he told me if I were to drop him…like, if the relationship was seriously making me unhappy…I had to do it in the gentlest way possible and be super careful not to hurt him. He also told me that I should tell X everything I told Y, because clear communication and mutual trust are the foundation upon which successful relationships are built upon. Funny enough, X said the same thing. I. Am. Freaking. Out. Please help me.)

I don’t want to do something I’ll regret. Any guidance you can offer would be very much appreciated.

hey, just another note on a past submission

You know how the asexual bicurious “heartbreaker” high school girl who sent you that submission about her current boyfriend X and the guy she’s liked forever Y? Yeah, just another note on it.

I JUST WANTED TO ADD THAT IT’S NOT URGENT, BUT IT IS VERY TIME SENSITIVE BECAUSE I HONESTLY DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND CAN’T PREDICT MY OWN ACTIONS AT THIS POINT.

Please tag your response with “stellaster” (don’t ask, it’s a unique personal thing that doesn’t have a tumblr tag)

=====================================

Hey love,

So first off, no. There is not a way that you can end things and everything can be happy, immediately. That’s the key word. We all find our ways to happiness sooner or later. We are all heartbroken and sad after a break and that’s completely normal so expecting for X to be happy even after breaking up is unrealistic. He’ll be unhappy and you can only hope that he’ll find his way and he’ll become happy again. But staying with him while you don’t love him or care for him in the way that he thinks you do, that would also make him unhappy as well. It’ll lead him to think that he’s making you unhappy and no one wants to do that to the ones they love. You also said that if you leave him and break his heart he’ll never be the same again. While this may be true, you don’t know if this is a good or a bad thing. No one bounces back after having their heart broken loving so fervently. However, he can become stronger. Will he be more cautious? Maybe, but we can hope that he’ll love again. You don’t know that someone else won’t come along and prove him that he deserves the best of everything.

I think the best thing you can do right now is to be honest with X about your relationship. Let him know that you don’t feel a strong emotion for him anymore. Let him know that while you realise it’s safe to be with him in the long run, you just don’t feel the rush of emotions that you want and you may not love him the same way he loves you. It’s important that you’re honest in all of your relationships because everyone deserves that. Everyone deserves an honest partner. I don’t know what else you want to do in regards to Y since he said he didn’t want to pursue a romantic relationship and you don’t seem to feel that it’ll be more than a hot moment of adrenaline either. But it may be better for all three for you to take some time and discover yourselves. You’re still in high school. You’re all young and there’s still sooooo many years ahead of you. So explore. If you realise that you still love X or Y later, maybe you can reconnect. While you’re discovering yourself, you can remain friends.

As for love, no one really defines love in the same way as others. So I would advise that you start thinking about what it means for you personally. When you think about love, when you think about soulmates, what do you expect from it? Don’t base it on what others think. What do you think it should mean? For me, a soulmate means a home. It means someone who accepts you for all that you are. Someone who is willing to die for you but also is willing to live as passionately for you. Someone who makes you feel safe, not just physically but emotionally as well. But a soulmate is also someone who challenges you to become better. To be a better person, to make you want to take on tasks that fear you and overcome them. That’s what it means to me. So while my soulmate may not be a romantic partner, it can be a platonic partner as well. So figure out what it means to you. And you know what? You may not figure it out for a while. You may not know for a while, and that’s fine too.

I don’t think you’re strange for having an aversion to physical touch. Touch aversion is not uncommon for asexuals. I would adivse that you look up more on asexuality and touch aversion. It’s not an uncommon phenomenon. It’ll help you find soe peace with what you’re feeling rather than feeling out of sorts and weird. Explore your seuxailty and your romantic preferences. A lot of people have different preferences and the world is no longer black and white anymore. There’s a million shades of grey in between and we just have to learn to navigate ourselves based on our feelings. So you may find out later that you’re not as romantic as you had thought. You may be aromantic or demiromantic. You may only want a QPP instead of a lover in your life. Whatever it is, exploration of self is the best adventure to go on.

I hope this helps a little. I tried to tackle everything as best as I could. I hope everything works out.

Always by your side,

Kelly

JABDJSJSJ MATCHUPS I'm a girl long (thick) black hair, and I'm 163cm. I tend to be really polite but I'm usually super loud and sometimes I have an attitude when I'm with people I'm comfortable w (like best friends and family). I don't have many hobbies, but I've started taking interest in teas and pastries. Singing is also really fun. I spend most of my time on my phone talking w friends. Also I'm not really into the things other girls like so I generally feel out of place at school, etc.

hi you !! I see you a lot in the blog’s notificationsso it was fun to finally do your matchup lmao! I hope you like it ♥ I didn’thesitate one second when writing this, as weird as it may seem the two of youare perfect for each other !!!

Your match is Arashi Narukami !

His first reaction when learning a girl had joined theschool was to gasp loudly. A girl ? A ray of light and hope in this ocean ofmale sweat and dirty jokes ? He didn’t even know you and yet he already considered you his savior. He hurried to meet you, really giddy at the thought he’d finally havesomeone to chat about girly things with ! He found really sweet the fact youtend to be very polite, but told you he’d be way happier if you could be morecasual with him. He wants to be your friend, after all : you don’t need to betoo uptight with him ! And that’s how he took you under his wing as if it werethe most natural thing to do.

Soon enough, you had a self-proclaimed big sister.Arashi’s ready to do absolutely anything to help you feel at home at Yumenosaki! He’ll show you around and make sure you’re not lost, help you withassignments after classes, introduce you to people… He also loves to join youduring lunch break and eat with you ! Most of the time he cooks his lunch athome and brings it with him, so he took the habit to cook a little bit more tomake you taste his cooking every day. He’s a very positive and nice person, sohanging out with him is really fun !To be fair, he was surprised to learn you’re not into girly things. Oh, but hewon’t give up so easily. He won’t bore you talking about makeup all day long,don’t worry. But he likes to bring you at his favorite stores after classes,showing you cute things he likes and offering to buy something for you. Expecthim to invite you to his house during weekends, and to gossip while doing yournails. He could become a professional, really. He likes to do your hair, too,and you always look like a different person once he’s done ! He won’t force youto try those things out, though, and simply offers to give you a little makeover oradvice if you want. Besides, it’s not like it’s unpleasant : he even sometimeshelps you use facemasks and skin care products ! It’s always a bit embarrassingto have him touch your face so openly, but it feels amazing and you have toadmit he’s really talented with his fingers.

Arashi came to absolutely adore you in record time :it kind of feels like you’re his little sister ! You don’t know much aboutfashion, makeup and other traditionally feminine activities, so he has anexcuse to teach you ! That’s not all you do together though. He likes to trainsinging with you, often giving you little tips. He loves your singing voice andsometimes even cries when you try singing emotional songs.He thinks you loving tea and pastries is really cute and loves to bring you tohis favorite cafés after school ! He claims his two favorite things in theworld are reunited there : sweet things and your smile ! He’ll often just stickto tea, though, as he’s always trying out a new diet. You know it’s for his modellingcareer so you can’t really say much, but you kind of feel sad for him when younotice how sugar-starved he looks…This is exactly why you started looking into cooking : you wanted to makesweets he could eat while dieting without feeling bad ! As you’re not veryinterested in girly stuff, you never really considered making sweets for yourloved ones, but you picked up quite a few tricks while helping Arashi around.Besides, he said himself he’d love to taste your cooking someday. The first fewtries didn’t go exactly as well as you hoped, but eventually you managed tomake the perfect snack for him : low-calories but still sweet anddelicious-looking ! He was really flustered when you gave it to him and huggedyou tight, saying he didn’t know what he did to deserve someone like you in hislife. He even teared up a bit !

As time went by, you started to notice you didn’t onlyharbor friendly feelings towards Arashi. Sure, you did at first. But he’s sonice and kind… And pretty, too. It’s only natural that you’d grow a bit of acrush on him at some point… right ? You didn’t dare talk to him about it atfirst. After all, he’s always saying he considers you like his little sister,or gushing about how handsome Kunugi-sensei is. It’s not as if someone like youstood a chance, right… ? He’s always surrounded by pretty girls, too. Yousometimes come to cheer on him during photoshoots, and his girlcoworkers love to flock around him like lovestruck puppies. You used to think you couldn’t possible rival models… They’re the type of cute and girly girls Arashi seems to love, too.So naturally, you decided confessing to him wasn’t a good idea.Only, Arashi noticed you were looking pretty depressed. He came to confront youabout it, asking what was wrong. You were ready to just pretend everything wasfine when he surprised you, softly asking how you would react if he said heloved you more than as a friend. And he wasn’t joking or playing around : hedid admit he had a crush on you on the spot, looking dead serious. To behonest, you still can’t believe he’s your boyfriend now. All that it took wasto tell him you felt the same, and boom : instant boyfriend. Crazy, right ?

But to Arashi, the fun has only just begun. Now hegets to tell everyone he’s dating you, and he has an excuse to constantly betalking about you (which he was already doing before, anyway). He loves to take you out ondates, bringing you to his favorite places and doing silly couple stufftogether ! Going skating together : check. Buying matching clothes : check.Kissing in the amusement park’s ferris wheel : check. Oh but beware if he triesto bring you shopping with him : you’re going to be complaining and holding thebags while he drools over the clothes on the racks. People often look at you inamusement : it’s not very common to see the roles in a couple being reversed like they arefor you and Arashi !Your boyfriend also loves to have nice, long chats with you. He’s prettytalkative but also likes to listen, loving how loud you can get. He’ll also letyou rant or complain about stuff if you want and will be 100% supportive ofyou !

You managed to land yourself a great boyfriend,congrats ! Arashi’s very passionate and takes your interests to heart. He’salways proud of you and pushes you to do your very best ! To him, nothing’sbetter than just spending lovey-dovey moments with you, holding you in his armswhile doing something you love. He treasures you dearly and will make you happy !

Other possible match : Mika

☯ for celebs!!!

send me a ☯ for a brotp meme

Billie/Jason/Jonathan (yea, I’m doing the ot3)

who’s older?: Jason and Jonathan are the same age. Probably a couple months apart. Billie is the baby.

who’s more protective?: Hm, maybe Jonathan. He’s always ready to fight for them. Billie is protective of Jason though. He was her first friend after she moved to LA. But she’s also protective of Jon. Not as much though since Jon fights his won battles often. Jason is protective of the both of them too though.

what’s their origin?: Jon and Jason met at some gala years back. Jon hated it, of course. He hates going to those kind of things. He hung around the bar for most of the night, which is where he met Jason. Despite the major personality differences, they hit it off. Years later, Billie got cast as a very, very small recurring role on a show where Jason is a huge star. I imagine he hits on all the female extras, hit on her and she just LAUGHED in his face. Jason then introduced Billie to Jon and they’ve all been friends since then.

what are four words to describe their relationship?: Sarcastic, boozy, funny, breezy

how does each one feel when the other gets into a romantic relationship?: do they get jealous? are they super protective? proud of their friend getting out there?? Billie and Jon definitely tease Jason whenever he gets in a relationship since he’s all about the PR relationship. They don’t really take them seriously. Jon and Jason also tease Billie when she dates someone but are generally protective. They get all older brother like and have to check the guy out and make sure he’s worthy of her. When Jon dates and is actually open about it, they’re happy and surprised. He isn’t really the lovey dovey type so again, there is a lot of teasing. But I think in general, happiness and being proud that he put himself out there and opened up to someone.

list three problems that they’ve encountered in their time together: Finding time to actually hang out. They’re all busy with their film schedules so sometimes they can go a long time without seeing each other. Also, finding a nice place where there won’t be a bunch of fans or cameras in their faces. And…that’s only two but that’s really all I can think of.

how often do they fight?: Every time they see each other. But it’s never anything serious. They’re all kind of sarcastic assholes with each other. So it’s all for laughs.

what would their biggest fight be about?: Australia vs. England/Who’s Homeland is better? Jon and Jason say England. Billie says Australia. It’s never ending.

nicknames/terms of endearment?: Billie calls Jason - Jayso and Jon - Jono from time to time. Jon calls them by their names because he doesn’t do fluffy/cutesy nicknames. Jason usually sticks with the normal names too, maybe calls Billie hon or sweetie but not too often and probably usually before saying something sarcastic.

how long will they last?: do they fall out a few months after friendship blooms? do they laugh at their respective grandchildren together while looking over photos from decades ago? I’m gonna say FOREVERRRRRRRRR! They all love each other and like hanging out. I can’t imagine them not staying close to each other.

how well do they know each other?: They know a lot ore about each other than Wikipedia does. No, really. They’re close. Between all the teasing they do have somewhat serious conversations. They know each other’s likes and dislikes, goals in life and details about their past.

which of the two is more: violent, expressive, affectionate, irritable, intelligent, attractive, kind: Jon - Violent, Irritable. Jason - Attractive, Kind. Billie - Expressive, Affectionate. They’re all fairly intelligent. Even if they joke and say Jason is just a pretty face.

are there any chances of them n o t staying platonic?: Well, Jason and Jon definitely aren’t going to hook up. Billie and Jon look at each other like siblings. I wouldn’t put it pass Billie and Jason to drunkenly make out at least once but that would be them super, super drunk. They’re all very platonic.

how would they react if the other were to die?: Devastated.

what extent would one half of the brotp go for the other?: Billie would defend her boys like crazy, Jon would fight people like crazy and Jason would also defend them like crazy. They’re like a little family, really. They would do a lot for each other.

list headcanons for them based around: a slide, a laptop, winter, coca-cola, braiding hair, shoes, two of your choice: Winter is actually kind of an argument with them. Jason and Jon say that winter is during the obvious December to March months. But Billie is a backwards Australian and insists that nope, those are summer months. And whenever it’s in the middle of ACTUAL winter and it gets a little chilly, she gets all dramatic and wears a coat and says “it’s so cold for summer” and then an intense debate will break out for three days. Billie is in love with french braids. Especially the cutesy french braided pigtails. She absolutely loves them. However, she can’t do it herself. Whenever she tries it looks all loose and uneven. So, she has somehow convinced both Jason and Jon to learn. They watched numerous videos online and now whenever Billie wants her hair braided, she finds one of them and has them do it. As payment, she always buys the first two rounds at the bar.

Tyler/Nikki

who’s older?: You know, I have no clue. Nikki might be though.

who’s more protective?: Tyler is more protective over Nikki. He’s known her for years and has a huge crush on her and everyone knows it. And he’s very protective. He gets really defensive any time there is something bad said about her in the press.

what’s their origin?: Probably at the Kids Choice Awards. Tyler was very young when he was discovered and so was Nikki. They probably presented at the award show and then hung out afterwards. They saw each other a lot at these kind of events and eventually just became friends. As they got older they would hang out at bigger, more mature events then silly award shows.

what are four words to describe their relationship?: Playful, lively, flirty, flawed

how does each one feel when the other gets into a romantic relationship?: do they get jealous? are they super protective? proud of their friend getting out there?? They get jealous. Tyler already makes it known he’s interested in Nikki so obviously he gets jealous. But in the end, he’s also happy if she’s happy. He’s not really a sore loser about it. And Nikki gets jealous too. She likes the attention Tyler gives her and when he’s dating someone he isn’t being all flirty with her and so she gets a bit jealous.

list three problems that they’ve encountered in their time together: Tyler’s feelings for her, Fans/paparazzi inserting themselves in their business (Tyler’s fault), Nikki leading him on here and there

how often do they fight?: I don’t think they’ve ever fought. Sure she gets annoyed when he’s openly says he likes Nikki but she denies him and he gets jealous when she’s with someone else. But they don’t ever let that get in the way of their actual friendship

what would their biggest fight be about?: If they actually got into a fight, like a real one, it would be Tyler’s feelings for her.

nicknames/terms of endearment?: Babe, hon, sweetie, baby, sexy, stuff like that. Also Ty and Nik.

how long will they last?: do they fall out a few months after friendship blooms? do they laugh at their respective grandchildren together while looking over photos from decades ago? They’ve been friends since they were middle school aged and nothing has come between them yet. I don’t really thing anything could. They’ll be friends a really long ways down the road.

how well do they know each other?: I imagine they know pretty much everything there is to know about each other. Again, they’ve known each other since they were like 10/11 and they’re in their 20′s now. There isn’t much they keep secret or really can keep secret.

which of the two is more: violent, expressive, affectionate, irritable, intelligent, attractive, kind: I’d say - Nikki is more violent, irritable, intelligent and Tyler is more expressive, affectionate and kind. They’re both very attractive people though so tie on that.

are there any chances of them n o t staying platonic?: Yes and no. They’ll definitely dabble in something more but never actually date or be exclusive. They’ll always be first and foremost platonic friends.

how would they react if the other were to die?: It would be a huge blow to either of them. They’re like each other’s longest lasting friends.

what extent would one half of the brotp go for the other?: Tyler would do anything Nikki asked him to do. Honestly, he is a sucker for her. She would do a lot for him too but not quite as much.

list headcanons for them based around: a slide, a laptop, winter, coca-cola, braiding hair, shoes, two of your choice: Nikki and Tyler have had a pretty nice tradition over the years that right after a party or an after party, they get some fast food and go back to one of their homes to crash. Because of this, Tyler has acquired so many pairs of Nikki’s shoes over the years that she has her own shoe rack in the guest bedroom’s closet. She comes over, kicks off the uncomfortable heels and forgets to grab them as she heads out the next day to her car. Sometimes she’ll have him bring them over to her but there’s enough left behind that he had to do something with them. Tyler will never admit it to anyone other than Nikki but he’s actually afraid of heights. But he loves water parks and going up on the big slides they have. But again, afraid of heights. When he was younger, he told Nikki this in confidence and she promised to go on every water slide with him. That way he’d have someone with him and wouldn’t be so scared. Now, as an adult, he’s still not a fan of heights but isn’t too afraid to go up on a water slide alone but he’s so used to Nikki being by his side that he generally won’t go on one without her.

Did You Catch Ranveer’s Flirty Comments On Deepika’s Instagram Yet?

New Post has been published on http://healingawerness.com/getting-healthy/getting-healthy-women/did-you-catch-ranveers-flirty-comments-on-deepikas-instagram-yet/

Did You Catch Ranveer’s Flirty Comments On Deepika’s Instagram Yet?

Chaitra Krishnan June 3, 2019

We’ve seen many amazing Bollywood couples fall in love, get married, and grow old together — Dharmendra and Hema Malini, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bhaduri, Sunil Dutt and Nargis, and the list goes on. The latest marriage row was ignited by Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s wedding in December 2017 which spread like a wildfire. But there wasn’t an end to it, 2018 saw Bollywood celebrities like Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, Ranveer Singh, Sonam Kapoor, Neha Dhupia, Himesh Reshammiya, etc. tie the knot! Boy, we could as well call 2018 as a year dedicated to Bollywood weddings alone. Out of all these weddings, if there’s one that has been the most anticipated, it has to be Deepika and Ranveer’s wedding. And why not? They were dating for around six years before they got married and they are super cute together! (twinkling eyes)

Ranveer and Deepika are real-life examples of how opposites attract. Ranveer (and his clothes), has clearly given us an idea about how colorful his personality is. He has always been vocal about his thoughts and he’s on the highest of energy levels when it comes to expressing his love for Deepika. On the other hand, Deepika has always been quite low key about her personal life. Also, her personality is classy and more towards the mellow side. Nonetheless, the two have been posting flirty comments on each other’s Instagram and we can’t get enough of it! These comments totally prove that they’re madly in love!

The Lovey-Dovey Hubby

If you’ve been following Deepika and Ranveer, you’d know how much of a cheesy husband Ranveer is. For the millennials, life is all about social media, and commenting cute tokens of appreciation on your partner’s Instagram posts is almost like standing up on the roof and shouting it out to the world.

Among all the B-town couples who are active on Instagram, Ranveer is probably the one who has aced public display of affection in the virtual world. Well, this applies pretty well to Ranveer in the real world as well. He never misses an opportunity to appreciate his beautiful wife at award shows, reality shows, interviews, and at other events.

During the recent edition of Zee Cine Awards, after winning the Best Actor Award (Viewer’s choice) for the role of Alauddin Khilji in Padmavati, Ranveer delivered a speech that left Deepika in tears. He thanked Sanjay Leela Bhansali for his blockbuster acting roles and then thanked him for becoming the reason why he met Deepika. He said, “Aur kya mangu mein uparwale se? Apni Leela, apni Mastani, apni Rani se shaadi kar li. Sach mein hero bangaya mein toh yaar.” (What else do I ask God for, I’ve married my Leela, my Mastani, my Queen and I’ve become the real hero guys!) Awww! Isn’t that just adorbs? No wonder why Deepika’s eyes started watering like a fountain after the speech. We feel you DeePee!

Right Behind You Pati Dev

When it comes to flirting on Instagram, Deepika isn’t far behind either. Her comments on Ranveer Singh’s posts are pretty “awww”some. Even before the hottest couple in B-town officially announced their wedding, Deepika was asked by Karan Johar about their relationship on his TV chat show, Koffee with Karan. Deepika turned all pink when Karan pointed out the couple’s flirty comments on each other’s post. Even though they have been denying the fact that they were in a relationship, for a very long time, we all know that wasn’t true. Thank you, Instagram!

Deepika as we know, had a rough break up phase after she parted ways from Ranbir Kapoor, her first Boyfriend in the film industry. The Deepika we saw back then was quite open about her relationship and even clicked family pictures with Ranbir’s parents! She then went through episodes of depression for a while, about which she later talked openly to the public.

Why Women Pull Away: 12 Reasons Why Girls Run as You Get Closer

You’re dating a girl and want to take it to the next level, but do you feel like she’s pulling away? Here’s why women pull away in the first place.

This always happens, even to the best of us. We’re hanging out with someone, we start to develop feelings, and just when you think everything’s going great, boom. It ends. Don’t worry, you’re not the only one wondering why women pull away.

Sadly, this happens to most of us, even me. I went to Australia for a guy, and he pulled away while I was there, so don’t think it’s so cheery on our side either. So, if you’re dealing with this right now, I understand.

Why women pull away

You probably think that women are complicated, but it’s not women, it’s people in general. People are complicated and make things so much more dramatic than they need to be. Listen, I don’t know what’s going on in their heads, but, I have a pretty good idea behind why women pull away. I know it’s cliché, but it’s not you. It’s them.

I mean, they may not be sure or into you, but that’s not because you’re doing something wrong. So, don’t think you’re the problem.

#1 It’s all happening too soon. She didn’t expect this to happen. Now she’s freaking out. It’s normal when people fall in love, everything just falls off balance and you’re taken down this whirlwind that you didn’t expect.

But at the same time, she’s scared. When things happen all of a sudden it becomes very overwhelming, causing people to just take a break and get some air. Maybe all she needs is some air. [Read: What a woman really wants when she pulls away]

#2 You’re too aggressive. You’re too much and not in a good way. You’re too much in her face, too lovey dovey, just too much. This isn’t bad, but for her, it’s overwhelming. Take it easy, cowboy. Your aggressiveness is causing her to freak out and retreat. If you want her, it’s cool, but don’t make her feel like she’s being hunted.

#3 She’s terrified. Falling in love is a big deal. It’s terrifying. I fell in love and got rejected, so you can only imagine how she’s feeling. Not everyone is so willing to jump into a relationship like you or me.

Some people take longer to process their feelings and really decide if it’s for them or not. So, maybe she really likes you, but she’s scared as shit. Don’t pressure her, give her space, and talk to her. If she’s scared, she’ll tell you what she needs from you. [Read: 10 clearest signs you should back off when pursuing a girl]

#4 She’s trying to figure things out. She likes you, but she’s trying to grasp onto the railings, if you get what I mean. Maybe this was unexpected and now she’s off balance. She just needs to figure out if this is what she wants and how this relationship will work for her. In this case, she needs time to adjust. Communicate openly with her.

#5 She isn’t feeling the same way. She went on a couple dates with you, tried it out, but she’s not into you like that. Sure, she thinks you’re nice and a good person, but for her, you’re missing something. This doesn’t mean you miss something, you are who you are, but you’re not for her. She knows that, hence, why she’s pulling away from you. [Read: Is she flirting or just being friendly? The real differences]

#6 She’s not sure. She likes you, but she’s just not sure if you’re the one she wants to date. I know, it’s harsh to read that, but it happens. She tests you out and if she pulls away, maybe you’re not the one for her. Which, on the bright side, is good that you found out now.

This has probably happened to you as well, maybe you liked a girl, but not enough to be exclusive with her. Right now, this is what’s happening.

#7 You’re not being patient. One of the biggest reasons why women pull away is because you’re rushing things too quickly. She likes you, you like her, but you’re already looking for the ring, and it’s only the second date. You need to slow it down and take a breath.

If you’re too impatient, she feels it and that makes someone uncomfortable very easily. So, just try to enjoy the moment and though you want a future with her, don’t make it so obvious just yet. [Read: 8 signs you’re coming on way too strong]

#8 She actually really likes you. She really likes you. In fact, she likes you a lot. This is a terrifying thought for many people. I mean, when you like someone, you open yourself up to getting hurt. And what’s the best way to not get hurt? To not see anyone or at least to keep things casual. If things get too serious and she sees herself falling for you, she’s out.

#9 She’s suffering from “FOMO.” Or, also known as the fear of missing out. Listen, she likes you, but she’s also interested in the guy that works at Starbucks. Do you get what I mean? She doesn’t want to commit to you because she’s not fully ready to stop seeing other people.

You’re too serious for her, and she still wants to play the field. This doesn’t mean she doesn’t like you, she does, but not enough. [Read: 15 signs she’s leading you on and taking you nowhere]

#10 You’ve become “soft.” Now, I don’t think you should become an asshole to try to keep her, this isn’t what it’s about. But she liked the chase and she liked that you didn’t always give her what she wanted.

Now, you’re in love with her and you want to do nothing more than shower her with gifts, I get it. But don’t do it. Treat her well and treat her with respect but don’t throw in the towel and surrender yourself to her. She may be bored now that she’s getting her way all the time.

#11 You’re not giving her space. You clearly see that she’s pulling away. Instead of communicating with her or giving her space, you suffocate her. Which, I understand, you’re scared of losing her so you try to pull her back to you. But, by suffocating her with yourself, you won’t get her back.

You need to give her the space she needs since she’s clearly already in her head with thought. Instead of being in her face, talk to her. [Read: How to give space in a relationship and not drift apart]

#12 You’re not communicating how you feel. She may really be into you, but you’re not letting her know that you’re into her. So, why would she invest her time into someone who she can’t fully read? How does she know you’re into her if you don’t express it in some fashion?

She may be pulling away because she feels she’ll get hurt in the end. Now, it doesn’t matter if you really like her, she can’t tell if you do, so it’s the same as not liking her.

[Read: How to let a girl know you genuinely like her, without even telling her]

Now that you know why women pull away, don’t be so hard on yourself. Sure, what she did wasn’t nice, but she’s clearly not the one for you. So, be happy, you dodged a bullet.

Is He Going to Propose? 15 Signs He’s About to Get on One Knee

If you and your beau have been dating for a while now, you may be wondering if he’s ready for marriage. Is he going to propose? Here’s how to tell.

I think most women out there dream about their wedding day from a very young age. We think up the perfect groom and then figure out all the little details we want to include on the big day. Sometimes we even act it out as children. That can change when we grow up and actually get close to marriage because we don’t even know if marriage is on his mind yet. Is he going to propose?

This question flits in and out of our minds numerous times when the relationship gets to a point where marriage is a real possibility. We wonder when and how he’ll do it and sometimes it can even drive us crazy. If only there was a way for us to tell if a man was going to propose or not. Oh yeah, there are lots of ways!

Marriage is not something to take lightly

As much as us ladies have dreamed about our wedding days for so long, one thing we can’t forget about is who our groom is. With the excitement of such a big day, it can be easy to get caught up in whether or not he’ll put a ring on it.

Just remember that you should be worrying about who you’re marrying, not what the wedding will look like. You should find the person to spend your life with; the one person who will make you happier than anyone else. Then you can worry about the wedding. [Read: 20 questions to ask your partner before you get married]

Is he going to propose?

Now that’s the real question. If you’re at the point where you think he might pop the question, then I’m assuming you’ve already discussed marriage. You know exactly how he feels about it and if he would even want to marry you.

That’s the easy part. The rest is really just a waiting game. But if you think he’s getting close to popping the question, pay close attention. These are all the signs he’s about to get down on one knee. [Read: How to get him to propose]

#1 He’s been talking about marriage more frequently. Has your man been overly eager to talk about wedding-related topics lately? Is he actually letting you watch those crazy wedding shows with no arguments?

Then he might be gearing up to pop the question. When he talks more about marriage, he’s thinking about it way more. And that means a ring could be in your future.

#2 He’s been discussing kids with you. This only applies if both of you want kids. If not, don’t worry about this sign. But if your man is bringing up the topic of kids and wanting them and openly discussing names, he might be thinking about proposing soon. [Read: How to know if you’re both ready to have a baby]

#3 He brought up your living situations. Do you two live together or apart? If your man is discussing moving in together or anything else about where you’ll be living in the future, it means he sees you two living together. This also means he could be planning on proposing to solidify that decision. [Read: 15 things to know before moving in with your boyfriend]

#4 He’s been going MIA recently. Does he just wander out without a coherent response? If he’s being shady about his whereabouts, he could be scoping out different rings. Don’t jump to negative conclusions here. If this sign is present with a few more on this list, it might be him proposing soon.

#5 He planned a date night for the two of you as a surprise. Does he have a really special date night planned for the two of you? If so, it could be the night he’s going to propose. Be prepared and do your nails up really pretty! A date night that’s unlike your typical dates at this point in your relationship could mean something big.

#6 He hasn’t been spending as much lately. Let’s be real, rings and weddings are NOT cheap. If your boyfriend is planning to propose in the near future, he’ll be frugal. He won’t spend a lot of money going out or buying anything big or expensive. And that’s because he has a big purchase coming up.

#7 He’s been meeting with your parents/friends. This is one of the biggest signs he’s about to propose. If your man is meeting with your parents and friends behind your back, it’s for a reason.

And that reason is to get any details he can about your engagement and ring preferences. If he’s meeting with your parents, he could be asking for permission to marry you. [Read: How to tell if he’s serious about you]

#8 He’s just been acting odd in general. When guys are trying to hide something – anything, really – they’ll act strangely. You’ll just be able to tell that something is off. This could be more a lot more reasons too. But if it’s paired with these other signs, it’s because he’s going to propose.

#9 He’s been shielding his phone and computer screen from you. I know us ladies tend to think of bad things when our men do this but don’t. If you’re far enough in your relationship where marriage is on the table, then this could be a sign he’s searching for a ring and doesn’t want you to see it. So don’t be snooping! It could be a surprise.

#10 He’s been acting nervous. I think guys will be nervous to ask for your hand in marriage no matter how long you’ve been together. That being said, this nervousness will definitely show. If he’s just been acting nervous in general lately, a proposal may be why. [Read: 10 ways to know for sure if a guy wants to marry you]

#11 He’s been extra lovey-dovey. Obviously, marriage is a confession of your love. If your boyfriend has been extra touchy-feely and giving you a lot more attention than usual, he could be buttering you up for a proposal. This could be because he’s actually feeling affectionate or because he wants to up his chances of getting a “yes.”

#12 He’s been extra kind and generous. The same goes for his behavior toward you that’s not affectionate. Is he just being very kind and sweet in general? This is also a way he’s getting you really feeling good before the proposal.

#13 Your friends and family are acting strange, too. The truth is, unless you keep your personal life very private from them, your friends and family will know about the proposal before you do. Therefore, they’ll act weird around you. They may make little hints or just turn to each other and laugh. Be on the look out for this sign!

#14 He starts discussing vacation destinations. This is usually done in the sense that he’s planning a normal vacation for the two of you. But really, he’s gearing up for the honeymoon. He wants to get an idea as to how much the trip will be and where you’d like to go. He might even be looking for a real vacation where he can propose. [Read: How to make your honeymoon sex unbelievable]

#15 He starts telling you more how much he loves you. If he starts professing his love to you and making it very obvious that he loves you a lot, he might be getting ready to propose. He just wants to make sure you know he loves you. That way, you’ll see his feelings for you and you’ll give him that “yes!”

[Read: 14 undeniable signs he wants to spend forever with you]

So is he going to propose or not? If he’s showing a number of these signs above, the answer is pretty simple – YES!
