hi!! Ik this isnt very cheerful for ur early request😭 but if u r doing headcannons can i request straykids w an s/o whoes insecure maybe about like acne?? 🫶

Bf!Skz when s/o is insecure about acne❣️

Genre: Fluff, Comfort, Bf!Skz x gn!reader

A/n: Sorry for the wait with this one my love i’ve been a bit busy but i hope you enjoy! Feedback, replies, and reblogs are greatly appreciated! To anyone who may be struggling with acne, skin issues/disorders etc know that your beauty grows from the inside. so don’t ever let something temporary define you. You are so loved. Thank you for being here. Sending big hugs to all who need it right now. 🫂❤️ ~Fae 🧚🏽‍♀️ (M.Lists)

(dm’s requests and taglist are open!!)

Chan

Channie is Definitely the “i know you better than you know yourself” kind of Bf so he notices everything about you. Especially when you aren’t happy with yourself.

Physically not being able to sit back and watch you look at yourself in the mirror with disgust; he walks over to you and pulls you away from the mirror.

“Stop that” “stop what?” you immediately respond trying to walk past him avoiding eye contact as if your mind wasn’t racing a mile a minute with negative thoughts about yourself.

quickly pulling you into a tight embrace “C’mere you know you can’t hide from me my love” he says in a soft whisper as he began pressing kisses to your head and the side of your face. You then realize there was no escaping this conversation.

“You are so, SO beautiful and you literally have no idea.” You hug him back burying your face into his chest as your eyes start to water still refusing to look him in the eyes. “but i don’t feel beautiful channie… my skin looks so nasty right now” “it doesn’t matter honey, it’s temporary. Acne comes and goes, its natural bc you’re a human. You’re MY human and a little breakout isn’t going to change the way that i love you or the amazing person that you are. so don’t let it change the way you feel about yourself.”

After a few moments of silence Finally lifting your head up to look at him properly for the first time that morning, you see a smirking chan as he takes his thumb wiping away your tears “oh if only you could see yourself through my eyes darling… ”

Lee Know

is also SUPER quick to notice when you’re judging yourself.

i definitely see Lee know being an aggressive lover so off the rip he is not having it if his s/o is feeling ugly and unhappy with themselves.

Will definitely force you to do self love affirmations.

Standing in the mirror together as he hugs you from behind “Chin up .. now repeat after me…”

on the days you really struggle he is patient but very firm with you bc he is such a loverboy and will NOT accept ANYONE speaking down on the love of his life , not even yourself.

“Go on jagi … say it. We’re not moving until you love yourself!”

Changbin

Soft binnie ofc is very understanding and will also reassure you.

will let you rant and complain about how you feel listening carefully without interrupting.

Will definitely kiss all your breakouts and blemishes.

“Dont worry baby give it 2 weeks tops you wont even remember it was here.”

constantly reminds you how beautiful you look at random times during the day.

“Acne is temporary but my love is forever” he aggressively covers your face in kisses as you fall into a fit of giggles.

Yes .. very cheesy in his true cute binnie fashion lols

Hyunjin

will spoil you ROTTEN to the core.

the very second you complain about the smallest breakout he’s already on the phone booking you facials and skin treatments at a luxury spa.

You come home from work to see a huge gift basket on the kitchen counter overflowing with expensive skincare products. Facial cleansers, serums, toners, oils, spf’s, moisturizers, you name it, its in there.

“Jinnie .. baby what is all this??” “if my honey wants clear skin, then thats what you’ll get” “i swear i don’t deserve you” you say with teary eyes

“wait wait dont cry yet i have something else for you” “HUH??” in confusion and disbelief you watch hyunjin run off and return with a canvas. He turns it around and its a painting of you with the most beautiful flowers blooming from your face in the exact same spots you began to breakout a few days prior.

Han

Another aggressive lover.

you start pouting to him about your skin and it somehow turns into a mini lecture.

“Jagi your acne is flaring up again bc you’ve been too stressed out. how may times do i have to ask you to leave that fuck ass job and just let me take care of you!? “But ji-” “And you stress eating all this junk food isn’t helping either!”

he’s definitely holding you accountable for eating cleaner and making sure you drink enough water throughout the day

And if you fail to do so he is definitely on your ass about it! 😂

Felix

Lix is very comforting when you come to him in actual tears the day before a red carpet fashion event you two were attending together. “lix i cant go like this, look at my fucking face??” “Hun it’s really not as bad as you think, i promise.” “it is lix! i dont know how to cover this up” you began to cry again “would you feel better if i called Maya to come give you a professional full glam for tomorrow?” he reassures you hugging you tight and rubbing your back while already reaching for his phone to text his makeup artist.

But he also disciplines you about talking bad about yourself.

He has this rule where you can only make one negative comment about yourself a day. And every time you break that rule he throws one of your beloved pocket mirrors away (you had a LOT and he knew that)

“ Ew why do i-” “ EH?!? what was that!?” he glared at you with a raised eyebrow. “Gimmie me!” “But lix wait- we’re in public i need to know how my skin looks!” “idc hand it over.. you look beautiful and since you cant be nice to yourself now you’ll just have to take my word for it.” he cut you off with his hand out.

accepting your defeat you sigh loudly closing the compact mirror putting it in his hand and pouting as he got up with a smirk walking away to throw your 5th mirror this week in the trash

Seungmin

much like seungmin you are very strong and independent, you keep your “burdens” to yourself trying not to complain too much or trouble anyone with your issues. Especially if you are insecure about them.

but minnie knows when you’re struggling.

he knows you get a bit agitated when you dont feel your best and thats when you begin to distance yourself a bit more.

His love language being acts of service he would do small things for like make you natural homemade remedies like his mom used to do for him anytime your skin would flare up real bad.

after getting out of the shower still pouty from a long grumpy day, “here” he hands you a spray bottle. “ What’s this min? ”

“Aloe vera face mask” he says simply giving you a kiss on the forehead and walking away not wanting to make you feel bad for bringing up something he knows you’re insecure about.

i.n

whenever you’re breaking out jeongin does everything he possibly can to keep his lover happy.

he will definitely help you create a WHOLE NEW skincare routine.

he’s working overtime researching different products and the ingredients that would work best with your skin type.

even tho you are not happy about your acne he thoroughly enjoys your new way of spending quality time together.

“you know you don’t have to make this an US thing, right? Your skin already looks great” “how about you mind your little business and pass me the toner” you try to hold back a laugh as your sassy boyfriend stared you down through the mirror of your shared bathroom.

buying and trying a ton of new skincare products together.

rating which ones you liked best and which ones didn’t work at all for you.

he will even book you an appointment to see a dermatologist if you need to and ofc he’s gonna be going with you!

Taglist: @hanniemylovelyquokka @milknhoneyracha @tinyelfperson @jiisungllvr @turtledove824 @laylasbunbunny

virgin no more - a vinnie hacker smut

a/n: requested by anon; lowercase intended

cw: softdom!vinnie, sub!reader, praise kink, pussy eating, vanilla sex, soft sex, creampie, smut. this is an nsfw short, everything written is fictional. interact or don't, i'm not your mother

summary: you lose your virginity to your best friend vinnie

i’ve been thinking about it for so long and i feel that this time, it’s right. for years now, i’ve been a virgin. sure, i’ve had my fair share of kisses and makeout sessions in my past relationships, but i’ve never had sex with my past partners. one, i wasn’t ready and two, i’m terrified of losing it to someone i don’t trust with my heart and soul. but lately, i’ve been having thoughts about losing it to my best friend vinnie. vinnie and i have been best friends since his high school days in seattle. we both moved to la when he blew up on tiktok and now we’re both living in his new recently brought apartment.

it’s not my fault though! have you seen the man?! from his chiseled jawline to his perfectly sculpted god-like body that has been carved by the angels in heaven, he’s just simply irresistible. not only that, his personality is truly one of a kind. the sweetest, most caring human being on planet earth who wears his heart on his sleeve. the only problem is, he’s my best friend and i’m scared that he may not feel the same way that i feel about him. what if I ruin my friendship with him? that would be super awkward and embarrassing. then again, he hasn’t ruined our friendship every time he brings a girl home and fucks her senseless that she basically stumbles out of the house the next morning.

after taking the time to build up some courage, i decide it’s time.

“hey, vin. can i ask you something?”

“of course, what’s up?”

“this may be super awkward and embarrassing and you don’t have to answer, but what’s it like not being a virgin?”

“woah, um. it’s great, i guess. why you asking?”

“i guess what i’m trying to say is that i’m ready to lose my virginity.”

“that’s great, go for it!”

“i want to lose it to you.”

the silence in the room is so thick, you wouldn’t be able to cut it with a knife. vinnie and i sit opposite each other, our minds racing over what just transpired. great, i just ruined the most amazing friendship i could ever ask for.

“you want me to take your virginity?”

“yes. i trust you with my whole life. and i love you so much.”

“i love you so much. can i please kiss you?”

“please.”

he slowly leans in to capture my lips in one of the most passionate kisses i’ve ever had. the kiss is soft yet so hot. i feel him tug at the bottom of my shirt, wanting to take it off. i reach down to take it off my body, his eyes zoned in on my chest. his kisses move to my chest, kissing the tops of my tits before making his way down my cleavage. i unclasp my bra and remove it, letting it drop to the floor.

“they’re so pretty, oh my god. can i please touch?”

“of course, vin. they’re all yours.” i smile at him.

vinnie groans before using his big, strong hands to grope at my tits. squeezing, massaging, licking, sucking and biting, all of these combined had me weak in the knees. he’s making me feel so good right now, and we haven’t even had sex! i drop to my knees in front of him, the feeling of being so aroused is making me dizzy. my eyes are level with vinnie’s growing bulge. he looks big, is he going to fit? oh my lord, he’s not going to fit. i start pulling down his sweats, wanting to desperately see what he’s hiding. i release him from the confines of his underwear. jesus christ, he’s not fitting. there’s no way that all of THAT is going to fit inside.

“like what you see, princess?” he smirks.

“yeah i do. it’s so… big.”

“as much as i want your mouth around it, tonight’s about you.”

he grabs me by the back of my thigh, scooping me up into his arms. he gently throws me onto our bed before crawling up to me and placing a sweet kiss on my lips. he moves down my body, stopping at my panties. he looks up at me, a cute yet seductive smile plastered on his face.

“can i take these off, sweetheart? wanna see what i’m working with.”

“yes.” i breathe out, my heart racing and head spinning

he slowly removes my panties, gasping at the sight in front of him. he tosses my panties to the side before licking a stripe up my pussy with his tongue, earning a moan from me. i feel his tongue suck and lick at my clit, the feeling of pleasure rushing through my veins.

“you okay, sweetheart?”

“yes, please keep going. it feels unreal.”

vinnie continues his actions, only this time, he speeds them up. my little bundle of nerves that have never been touched by a man before are so alive and so sensitive, i can barely form any words now. i suddenly feel a tightness in my stomach. is this what i think it is?

“vinnie, i-“

“you close, baby?”

“i don’t know. my stomach hurts though.”

“you’re close to having an orgasm. want me to keep going?”

“yes! please don’t stop! i need to know what it feels like.”

vinnie sucks and licks my clit a little more before i feel a strange rush through my body. my legs shake at the intense pleasure, my stomach contorts and my pussy clenches at fresh air. my breathing is rapid but is soon calm as he slowly stops his actions.

“you did such a good job, baby. i’m so proud of you. you ready for my cock now?”

“i think so.”

“if it hurts, we’ll stop okay? i promise to go slow and make you feel good.”

“okay.”

vinnie lubes his cock up and jerks it for a bit before aligning it at my entrance. he slowly pushes in, the pain almost unbearable.

“want me to stop?”

“no, i’m okay. you can keep going.”

he pushes himself all the way in, bottoming out when he’s fully inside. we both moan at the feeling. i slightly adjust to make sure it fits and won’t destroy me. i nod my head, signalling to vinnie to move. he starts to slowly rock in and out of my pussy. the pain instantly becomes pleasure again as he fucks my walls. i wrap my legs around his waist, pushing him closer to me. he leans over, hovering over my figure before placing a kiss to my forehead.

“oh vin, you feel so good. i love you.”

“i love you more, sweetheart. god, i’m so glad you chose to lose your vigirnity to me.”

our lips connect in a passionate kiss. vinnie wraps his arms around my back, holding me close so that our chests are touching. he continues rocking into me and making me feel oh so good. i feel that strange rush coming back again, this time it’s stronger and right on the edge.

“oh vin, i’m close.”

“yeah? cum for me, pretty girl, cum on my cock for me.”

vinnie thrusts one last time and i feel all the same sensations from when he ate me out.

“oh fuck, pretty girl. you did so good, i’m gonna cum now okay?”

“please cum inside me, vincent. i need you so bad.”

vinnie moans at my words and it doesn’t take him long before he’s shooting ropes up and around my walls. i moan and whimper at the warmth inside me, watching it as it slowly leaks out. he pulls out and flops on the other side of the bed.

“that was amazing. you’re seriously the best.”

“glad you enjoyed, princess. now let’s get you cleaned up, shall we?”

he kisses my lips before scooping me up into his arms as we go to clean up our mess. i can now say that i’m a virgin no more and that my virginity has been taken by the one and only vinnie hacker.

Mentions of cheating below

Let’s Go Back Home

You were super excited to be spending time in your home city. It was everything you needed. You were especially excited because it was the first time you had brought your boyfriend Jimin with you. The two of you had been dating for a little over a year now. You had taken him to see your old high school, you drove past your childhood home, and introduced him to a bunch of your old friends. Now you and him were sat with a few of those friends at your favorite restaurant waiting for dinner to arrive.

You were listening to one of your friends talk about the new job she was working at when someone suddenly came walking up to your table, “Y/N is that you? You turned around and your heart skipped a little when you saw your ex boyfriend. You hadn’t spoken to him in over three years. Not after you ended things when you found out that he was cheating on you. This all being part of the reason you decided to take a job in South Korea, leaving shortly after you broke up. He still looked just like you remembered. He was tall being well over six feet and looked like he had gained even more muscle. You always thought he was your type until you met Jimin. Jimin was kind and gentle, he was there for you in your worst moments, and never once let you be insecure. He also had beautiful eyes that you could look into for days and soft lips that would kiss you all over, a smile that made you melt to this day.

It took a few moments for you to be pulled out of your day dream about how amazing Jimin was to realize your ex was still waiting for an answer. Not wanting to say much but also not wanting to cause a scene in the middle of dinner you simply gave him a smile while grabbing Jimin’s hand underneath the table. Your ex not taking the hint continued, “Where have you been? You like fell off the face of the earth.”

You couldn’t believe that he was acting like nothing had happened and that the last time you saw him he wasn’t naked on top of another woman, “I live in South Korea now. I took a job there. I’m just home visiting for a week with my boyfriend.” Your ex glared over to Jimin and Jimin reciprocated the action, you could feel the tension between the two of them beginning. Your ex was about to speak again when a woman came walking up to him and started pulling on his arm, “Baby come on. We have to leave now or we’ll miss the movie.” You instantly recognized her as the woman that you had walked in on while she was naked underneath your now ex boyfriend. “Well at least he didn’t break your heart for nothing”, you thought to yourself as he gave you a quick wave and walked off.

Thankful that he was gone you turned your attention to Jimin. You squeezed his hand and he gave you a slight smile, but you could tell something was off. After the bill was paid and goodbyes were said you and Jimin made your way back to the hotel, but you couldn’t help noticing his mood had significantly fallen since dinner.

“Babe did something happen during dinner or did I say something to upset you.” He thought for a moment then shook his head, “No Y/N I’m just tired. I’m gonna take a shower and get in bed.” Not wanting to push it, you quietly nodded and went to change into your pajamas. After sometime he joined you in bed and you waited for him to open his arms so you could cuddle together like you always did before falling asleep, but to your dismay he pulled the blanket over his shoulder and curled up facing away from you.

Now you knew for sure something was wrong, but you had no idea what. You thought the entire day had been great. After some time and noticing Jimin continuing to fidget as sleep was not coming to him you decided to speak up, “Hey, you know I don’t like playing games like this right. Did something happen today? I thought we were having such a good time. Please tell me if I did something wrong so I can try and fix it.” Jimin stayed silent for a while and you were beginning to struggle with trying to prevent yourself from getting angry. It wasn’t until you heard a few sniffles come from his side of the bed that all your anger instantly vanished. “Hey hey hey babe why are you crying?”, you said slowing pulling him to lay on your chest.

“Why are you with me Y/N?” Not sure where this was coming from you continued to rub comforting circles onto his back,” What do you mean why am I with you? I love you.”

Jimin took a few shaky breaths before looking up at you, “I am the exact opposite of your ex. He’s super tall and looks like lifting weights is his full time job. I overheard your friends talking about how they couldn’t believe the two of you broke up and how when you described your perfect man you always described him. They said that they didn’t think you’d stay in South Korea more than a few months before you’d want to go back home to him. I’m not good enough for you. I’ll never be like him.”

It was then you remembered that you never explained to anyone why the two of you had broken up. You just said it didn’t work and left it at that. You also felt terrible that Jimin was laying here crying thinking he wasn’t good enough for you.

You pull him up so you could look into his eyes, the same eyes you had been dreaming about earlier, “Babe you are more than good enough for me. You make me feel more loved than anyone ever has. You are just right for me and I don’t need anyone else. I don’t want you to be like him at all. I just want you to be you. Besides he was a jerk who cheated on me. I hope I never have to see him again.”

With some times the tension in the room started to lessen and you continued to dry his tears, the two of you started to relax. Jimin snuggled further into your chest, “I’m sorry for getting so upset Y/N. It’s just when I saw that guy I thought there was no way I could compete and I got scared. I don’t want to loose you and I want to be everything that I can for you. I love you Y/N.” You smiled and kissed the top of his head, “I know baby. I love you too. Let’s get some sleep. We have an early flight tomorrow. It’s time to go back to home where we belong.”

Hyunjin X reader

"If love was poison we'd drink it anyways"

Warnings::mentions alcohol, sexual themes, guns, weapons

Pairing::criminal!hyunjin X fem!reader

A/N::I KNOW THIS LOOKS LIKE A SUPER CRINGY MAFIA BOYFRIEND FANFIC BUT I PROMISE THE NEXT FEW PARTS WONT BE

Clubs are greatly frowned upon in your country but not banned. Strip clubs? Now that was banned. But you had no interest of the sort. Even clubs were just for alcohol and sex nothing more. You paid regular visits to one club nearby your apartment, so much so even the people at the club would whisper and gossip about you.

"She's here again?" "I heard she comes literally every time" "She has sex here so often I'm so shocked she hasn't gotten pregnant" "she's probably on some kind of birth control or got her tubs tied"

They would always say, which that last part was true. Kind of. But that isn't important what's important is that you go to potentially illegal clubs and in the amount of times you go never have you met a man quite like him.

September 5th. You got off work at around 5 and went to your apartment. There you made dinner and quickly and ate it while scrolling through your phone. You then got a message from your friend.

Alyssa•You wanna come with me to a club tonight?

You•sure, when and where?

You instantly replied with ease.

Alyssa•it starts at like I dunno 9? It's at the back part of the oddinary bar.

The Oddinary bar is the one the two of you usually go to for clubs and drinking. They have a really cool back section so it was a hot spot. You talked to Alyssa more before doing some simple chores. The dishes, sweep the floor, laundry and you even had some time to spare to play some games.

People typically picture you as a "failure" so now you go to clubs and party all the time but they'd be wrong. You have a office job directly under the government so you get good and steady pay. You just went often for your own fun.

You put on a tight black dress, some black sunglasses and some loud heels to make your presence known. After putting some jewelry and makeup on you called your friend. She said she was on the way to pick you up so you grabbed a black purse and put in some necessary items in it. Makeup top ups, hair elastics, a tazer just in case any man tries to test you.

You didn't wait long before you got a notification that Alyssa was there. You let her in and gave her a big hug and cheek kisses. After some light chit chat you went out to her car. While driving she asked you "how has work been treating you?"

You thought for a moment before replying "Pretty good actually. I haven't been on call in a while now and my co-workers are being very helpful." You nodded.

"Oh that's great!" Alyssa smiled as the greenlight ahead of you lit up her face. You were always so amazed at how she drives in this outfits. Today she's wearing thigh high pink boots, strapless pink velvet dress, and to top it all off a fluffy soft pink jacket.

You sighed as she started driving again, relaxing in your seat. It wasn't long before you arrived at your destination and went inside the bar. When you first walked in you noticed a sketchy looking man sitting at the front by the bartender. He was with 2 other young men, one with sandy brown hair with a cigarette in his mouth, the other had black hair, and the first one that caught your eye had slicked back blonde hair. They were all wearing thick black suits.

You clutched onto your purse and kept walking past them. The bartender seemed very young and after talking to him he immediately led the both of you to the back where the club was.

Loud music and shouts could be heard on the way over. The man opened the door for you and let you into the party of crazies. After a few drinks and some sugar you and Alyssa started partying and flirting with whoever was closest.

You sat at a small circular table taking a little break from dancing when you realized suddenly you had to go to the bathroom. Like ASAP. so you went to the washroom, no big deal. But when you got there it was out of order! You knew there was a second one because this club room is massive but you didn't know where, but Alyssa might. You spotted her flirting with a much taller and well built woman. You decided to intrude and discreetly tell her your…situation.

"Seriously!? Do you not know where the second one is," she whisper yelled so the tall woman behind you wouldn't hear.

Alyssa gave you a few directions before going back to her new friend. You followed the directions she gave you and lord and behold there was the bathroom. After finally relieving yourself you heard someone crying? You didn't ask what was wrong because you were still in your own stall but you listened carefully. Was she on the phone? She started crying louder before running out of the bathroom. You washed your hands quickly and tried to follow her. You saw her heels as she was running away and they were a bright red.

You looked around the club for red heels before hearing the same girl crying loudly. You followed her whimpers and found a sketchy door. It was tucked away from the main area so you knocked and awaited a response "Excuse me, are you alright?" You asked softly. The girl stopped crying for a moment before resuming. You put your hand on the handle cautiously before twisting the knob. Surprisingly it wasn't locked. When you opened the door you saw a girl with red heels and a long sleeved black dress, her burnt orange hair hanging in her face. Next to her a silhouette of a man, the giant window behind them making it hard to see them clearly.

Then you heard a gun click behind you and a cold metal against the back of your head. "Come with us or I'll shoot." A man with a cold steen voice spoke. It was the man from earlier, slicked back blonde hair and a thick black suit. You grabbed his arm and twisted it, placing the gun in your hands now.

Turns out unfortunately for this young man, you're a police officer.

I've been meaning to put together a rec list for forever, but @kprecfest finally gave me the kick in the behind I needed to do it. This is a little long, but in no way exhaustive—I still have so many fics on my to read list and I haven't had the chance to venture far from VegasPete yet (but there are a few non-VP recs at the end there). Also, I tried to limit the number of recs per author to one or two, but so many of these authors have multiple amazing works. If you like something definitely give their profile a view. Also standard caveat to make sure you read the tags for these. I hope you enjoy!

VegasPete

Such Precious Hours by ellieellieoxenfree (wip, explicit, post-canon)

Nobody ever really escapes this life.

One of my favorite takes on post-canon injured Vegas, treating it as the disability it realistically would be. And Ellie is so deft at grounding the physical with emotional pain and vice versa. But this fic has an incredible emotional depth that is alternatively sweet and heavy and hard, with truly great family moments and a lot of heart.

do it for me by lusn (oneshot, mature, post-canon)

Pete rolls onto his back, thunks his head back lightly against the floor. “Goddammit,” he says.

Lu has such a fantastic skill for writing action and bamf!VegasPete. This was the fic that made me fall in love with her writing. It's action-packed and sexy as hell. Super fun.

walking shadows by Lise (oneshot, teen, post-canon)

Even if almost everything else in his life still kind of sucks, Vegas at least thought things with Pete were going pretty well. The past is in the past, right? Everything's fine. Or not. Pete's reliving his trauma at night. Vegas has a crisis about it, and tries to figure out what he's supposed to do now.

Annnnnnnnnnngst. The only fic to legit make me cry so far in this fandom. Vegas is really going through it in this fic as he deals with his guilt and self-loathing in the aftermath of canon. Heart-wrenching and devastating.

The Blood in Your Mouth by folie_a_yeux (wip, explicit, f/f au)

She could stay like this for hours, just staring at Pete. Making her stare back. She could snake her fingers through her hair, like she’s done now, countless times, and bare that exquisite neck. She could run her hands over her stomach, down her thighs, feeling her gasp and squirm. And she could take her. Right here, on the dirty floor of this cramped, filthy room. She could bring back the light in Pete’s eyes, that look she hid in that Bangkok cell. She could make her do more than scream. F/F PeteVegas, or "Torture is Always Sexier With Lesbians."

God. I love this fic so much. This version of Vegas, with no hope of ever being a heir because of her gender, is truly unhinged and breathtaking. And the writing is just so lush and sharp and visceral.

The Opposite Of Hate by kerrikins (oneshot, teen, character study)

Or, three times Pete should have killed Vegas but didn't. Or, Pete's filled with emotions and doesn't know what to do with them or what they mean. Set between his escape and the end of the season.

Kerri is maybe more known for her AUs, but this shorter canonical Pete POV fic is still one of my favorites. I love her take on Pete's mindset through this period of the story and how it transforms over the short period between episodes 13 and 14.

where it's so sweet and heavenly by saru (oneshot, explicit, post-canon w/Venice)

Hornbills mate for life. Vegas thinks he understands. or, Pete is the perfect business partner, lover and father. Vegas wants him to have his babies. Figuratively speaking.

Another gorgeously written post-canon fic, this time with a lush sense of setting and symbolism. Also Vegas's obsessive adoration of Pete is this is just top notch.

golden hour by honeydrip (lmeden) (oneshot, teen, post-canon)

Pete stretches as he wakes, a languid gesture that fills up the bed and presses him against Vegas. His spine cracks and the muscles in his shoulders scream and he feels the bruises on his side begin to burn. He is a symphony of pain, and he smiles into the flesh of Vegas’s arm. Pete and Vegas get ready to go out on a date.

If you are in love with Vegas's wardrobe like me, this is a great fic for you. Also has gorgeous writing and the intimacy is so good.

fool's gold landed on my shoulder by phnelt (oneshot, mature, canon-divergent/au)

Today is the day the minor family attacks the major family’s compound. It’s the seventh time for Vegas. (Time loop fic)

Vegas is stuck reliving the minor family coup over and over again. A short time loop fic with a whooper of a punch.

Lost Pet by clandestinegardenias (oneshot, mature, canon-divergent)

Vegas has very few things he truly allows himself to care for, in this life. Going through the routine of feeding his hedgehog, only to find that a second pet has left him in as many weeks, might finally be the thing that pulls him under.

Events go differently with Pete's escape and Vegas's hedgehog. I'll be honest, this one is on here because it feels like it was written for me a little bit. I'm quite fond of it.

Separated by a degree by shamiram (wip, explicit, au)

Pete doesn't quite know how he went from being a street thug working at an illegal boxing ring to being a bodyguard for one of the most powerful men in Thailand, but he isn’t exactly complaining. or: Vegas meets Pete at an underground boxing ring, and everything spirals uncontrollably for both of them

This is an omegaverse fic with omega!Vegas and Alpha!Pete. Also a boxer AU. I really love the VegasPete dynamic in this one and how the author approaches canonical events through this AU.

dancing in a snow globe by incendir (oneshot, mature, post-canon)

“Can’t sleep?” Pete echoes back. “Without you, no,” Vegas says quietly. “I can’t.” [Or, five times Pete is asked about Vegas, and one time he isn't]

Conversations Pete has in the aftermath of canon. I really love their dynamic in this one. It's all about the codependence and mutual obsession.

The Coexistence of Opposite Values by destimushi (oneshot, explicit, post-canon)

Vegas can’t remember how it started. Can’t remember the day he decided inflicting pain would also bring him pleasure. Not satisfaction, not fulfilment, but a burning pleasure that sets his dick on fire. Pete asks for a caning. Vegas has thoughts about it.

I really love this fic's exploration of Vegas and his relationship to kink before and after Pete.

take me to your planet by any_open_eye (oneshot, explicit, missing scene)

Pete’s face is doing something. He thinks he might be smiling. He feels fucking high. What the hell is happening to him? He knows afterglow and this isn't it. If it was, he'd be way more into sex. There were people in high school and then one long-term girlfriend a few years ago, but she never—it was nothing like this. This is like… that blissful moment between sleeping and waking when you're conscious of your body but not yet of your mind. Just a vessel of receptors and processes. Electrified meat. “That was good, right?” Vegas's hands are on him. “Tell me it was good.”

Probably my favorite fic set within canon. I've reread this one so many times. It so beautifully connects episode 12 to the start of episode 13, and I really love Pete's headspace in this one.

even the clearest water by LuckyDiceKirby (oneshot, mature, post-canon)

He pulled Pete in for another kiss. Pete shoved him, hard, and Vegas fell back a few steps. He was breathing fast, his palms flat against the door. Vegas hadn’t seen him this scared in a long time. “What’s wrong?” Vegas asked. “I need you to shut me up,” Pete said. “I don’t care how. Use your belt, your shirt, I don’t care, just don’t let me talk.” - Vegas and Pete get dosed with a truth drug. No one ends up having a good time.

Pete's characterization in this fic is painful and incisive. Darkly delicious, this one.

Brand Recognition by iffervescent (oneshot, explicit, au)

Vegas wants his top billing back. Pete likes being on the bottom.

Super hot, smutty, smutty porn. I really loved Vegas's characterization in this too, especially his obsession with aftercare.

If You Had Something to Lose by raelle (wip, explicit, au)

When Pete saves a bleeding, gorgeous stranger from being killed by the Yakuza, that man opens doors to a world of submission and pleasure he’d never known before. When Vegas is saved by a beautiful college student, he knows he doesn’t want to let the man slip through his fingers. The two of them start up an arrangement: kinky sex, but only casually. But with the Yakuza on the hunt for the person who took down their men, and the main family asking questions about where Vegas goes when he disappears, how long will their casual arrangement last? – OR: Pete is a college student. Vegas is in the mafia. They shouldn’t meet, but they do, and their spark is impossible to ignore.

This one is just fun. I've been super enjoying the wild ride it takes me on every Friday. If you are looking for a fun fic to really dive into and spend some time in, this is it.

Other Recs

Intermission by Lise (Macau centric, teen, missing scenes)

His brother's in the hospital, his dad's dead, and his only ally is the main family bodyguard who was stalking Vegas, who seems to be a little unhinged. Macau, in the aftermath.

Really great exploration of Macau and what he might have been going through in episode 14 (aka he was not having a good time). I really love the range of emotions Macau processes in this and how he bonds with Pete. Great fic.

Dad Joke by nonplussed (Macau & Porchay & Pete, teen)

Technically written for day 1 of VP Fan Week for the prompt 'fake relationship', except there is no fake dating in this fic. There is, however, fake dad-ing

Delightful little fic about Macau and Chay bonding and giving Pete a hard time (with special guests Porsche and Vegas). Love this one.

reignite by lusn (Namphueng centric, teen, post-canon)

Namphueng has been endlessly dreaming. She can only tell because for the first time in years, she might finally be awake.

A darkly compelling exploration of Namphueng as she reacts to canonical events. Deeply love this character exploration and all it's terrible implications.

fuck it all back down by syzygetic (Vegas/multiple, explicit, canon-divergent)

Everything about sex is performative. There is no such thing as fucking without an agenda, at least in Vegas’s experience. He wouldn’t have survived to adulthood if he was precious about shit like that. Vegas and some of the men he sleeps with in his desperate, rage-filled attempts to be loved or hated--either will work.

I found this one to be a really compelling Vegas character study centering on his obsession with Kinn.

checkmate (series) by majestictortoise (teen/mature, post-canon)

I've actually only read the first few fics in this series, but I adore all of them and plan to finish the rest as soon as I have the time. The author has such an incredible grasp on the characterization for pretty much everybody and I love how they are continuing the story post-canon (aka operation kill korn).

And that's it (for now)! <3

Message to the author of this, but:

I just really wanna point out how good this ask blog is. Like, it’s not just art incorporated into each response, but good quality art that has emotions portrayed through each picture and great, in-character responses. The trust meter has been utilized super well, too, and it also feels really in-character. The background stories, slow build-up, mix of short and lengthy responses to various questions, etc etc… it’s all so very, very good. I know ask blogs aren’t as prevalent anymore and there isn’t much to compare it to, but even askblogs in the past don’t feel as well thought out and polished as this. It’s at the top of the pile of any old and current askblogs out there, and while I am all for embracing your own view on various characters, just the effort put into every little detail of this blog is just… mwah chef’s kiss good.

Anyway, I just love it so much, and I think everyone else probably does too. Askblogs definitely need to come back, but even if they did, and my following list ended up being filled with them, this specific blog is one that I’d come back to and obsess over and love the posts of. You do amazing work with this blog, and I love to see it.

You are way too kind to me, thank you so so much it genuinely means a whole lot.

I just want to make something fun and hope it inspires people or at least entertains. It's been wonderful to work with this blog, it wouldn't have been possible without YOU too.

Sending you kisses or hugs or whatever of your choosing. Months of boiling a character in your brain soup pays off.

#.divine echoes #ambulon is very special to me and i think he deserve something cool like this #knowing it Is cool does make me feel like im doing something right #thank you again. i don't have words to describe how much this made me happy #wonderful thing to wake up to. crying

Okay, how do I do this,

Let's see uh

Okay I have nothing to copy and paste really, so I'm just going to write from scratch. Bear with me.

Hiiiii I'm Edmund Endless. I'm 18, as of last February. Seems important to put out into the world.

I'm a little weirdo. Or, well a tall one according to some people (is 5'8" tall?), But either way, I fully admit that I am in fact rejecting the term normal when it comes to my identity. I'm in fact very eccentric in between the fact that I consider things like slacks to be casual pants and almost always wear some kind of Hawaiian shirt out in public because I like the design of a short sleeve button up with desgny stuff, that definitely counts.

As far as hobbies go, I've had a bit of time to accumulate some, such as being an artist on paper and digitally, a rudimentary writer in the works, and then I look cooking and playing Minecraft (I am most certainly not a gamer but that will hopefully be something I can work on)

I also like to dress super femme [though, also, I see clothing as a thing all should be able to enjoy free of gendered norms, sooo-]. So far not anything huge since I'm working on getting a job as we speak, but once I have money flowing in, I plan to do more. I think skirts, fishnets, and makeup are all amazing things, and that's not even the start of it.

Edit: I've been considering Gothic Victorian attire... I think it's also called Gothic Lolita? Outfits I've found look cute and i wish I had them now-

Anyway, as mentioned in my blurb at the top, I am neurodivergent. As far as I know I Do have an official diagnosis but I don't know where they are because I was not the one who got them- but anyway I have Autism and ADHD. I like to think of them as additional overlays over my brain (I imagine ADHD as like the weird additional RAM space over with my left hemisphere for example) that have a few drawbacks but generally make me who I am. Everyone is a unique individual and I think that's one of the best things ;]

Formerly I was a proud owner of a surprisingly old cockatiel whom I love and cherish- he got to be 31, nearly 32, this year. And throughout the last summer, I also care for two cats- neither of which have any problem with my bird. Usually it's more a concern of if he'll bite them lol

Since my birds passing I've adopted two rescues who needed a new person and while they're not fully tamed yet, we all enjoy each other and I hope to further the bond with time and effort.

Anyway it's a fair warning that because of that I may or may not understand certain social cues, sarcasm, certain jokes, etc. I definitely understand text tones a little better even before people started employing the /srs or whatever stuff, but it's better to put that out there. I can also be a little blunt, but between autism and experiences, I do try to not be harsh if I can.

Anyway I'm running out of long things to list so I'm just going to put some additional facts down here

- I currently have at least one experience working on an alpaca farm, and as a result I have a couple vague understandings of the stuff that goes on there and why they're quite profitable.

- I really really want to dye a bit of my hair hot pink. I think it would be awesome and very outside the box. [Edit: I DID IT! I'M GONNA DO IT AGAIN eventually]

- I like scary stuff and I like silly stuff, and I especially like it when both are involved. Mainly because I see a lot of the same humor nowadays and horror doesn't always phase me (I was one of those kids who got into FNAF when I was younger so a lot of the feeling of being scared over those kind of things desensitized me a little.)

- I at one point wanted to be a YouTuber as a career, but most likely that will not happen due to the ridiculousness of the platform not likely going to mesh very well with my vocabulary at least half the time consisting of Fuck here and there- which is to say I will probably still eventually get back into that because I wanted to post things on there too.

- I've been getting into baking and I really want to try to make creamy jalapeno popper stuffed chocolate donuts from scratch. I also want to make a pizza from scratch :]

- I love Legos and I like making transformers out of them when I can figure out how to do it.

- I like music that is either from the 50s jazz era, older rock, shitposty songs, and then will wood. I/me/myself babyy :D

- I have read the entire Twilight series and shamelessly admit that I used to think it was the coolest thing when I was younger. Not So much Anymore.

- I'm a big fan of books by Rick riordan, James Patterson, and other obscure artists that right strange cool stories- such as The hitchhiker's guide which I also read the entire trilogy of four books.

- for some reason my default thought to looking cooler involves spikes and leather and you know I can't entirely say why. But I think it makes anyone look instantly cooler to be dressed in at least a cool leather jacket and heeled matching boots.

- I am in fact the person behind the two projects R.O.O.T and Enduralt. The former (Root) which I work on more because that's a long-term project and an original project. The other one (Enduralt) was just something me and an old friend kind of jumped back into for fun and I figured I'd keep the ball rolling as long as I can since I felt like it deserved to have its ideas shown in some capacity.

- I have a C shaped spine last I checked. It doesn't affect a whole lot as long as I'm careful, but I think it's an interesting fact to mention.

- through very roundabout means I am related to Johnny Cash, but not by blood.

- at some point I really want to have the space to build the model of an old car but retrofitted for modern road safety stuff since nowadays you need to have at least a partially electric car to drive on the road. I'd like to have mine look nice and cool.

- this probably should have gone upwards by the cake idea but I really like mixing foods together and at some point I intend to create my ultimate burger I've always dreamed of.

- also my favorite color is magenta and I am frustrated that it is hard to find that color in the kind of clothes I like to get because if I could I would have a lot of nice sweaters and skirts and stuff in magenta and it would be amazing-

Anyway, that's all I can think of right now, so unless I something start reblogging and adding more to the list, that's everything relevant. Feel free to ask more about that stuff and I'll tell stories like the weird uncles/dad friend that I am to people.

How the hell do I pin this-

Compliments! "You're just so talented!" + Sweet Tarts?

Carrie preened in front of the mirror, smoothing put her performance dress. She knew her song and dance backwards and forwards, so all she could really control was how she looked. Which was amazing, if she said so herself.

“You ready Carrie?” her accompanist asked. Reggie had come highly recommend by her friend Julie, since Julie herself wasn’t able to play for her. They had gone through her numbers numerous times, so she knew he was more than competent. She just wanted this part to be over.

"Ready as I'll ever be," she replied, plastering her show smile on her face and walking out to the stage, head held high.

She goes through the motions of the audition, giving it her all, but she's so in the zone that before she knows it the judges are giving her kind smiles and promising to be in touch.

"Great job Carrie!" Reggie says, offering her a friendly hug, which she graciously accepts. They hadn't exactly become friends over the past few weeks, but Reggie was a genuinely nice guy and his playing elevated her performance more than a recording would have.

"Thanks. Listen, you've been so great with helping me-could I thank you with some lunch?" Carrie offered. "Or even just a coffee?"

"Umm, I actually have my own audition next, so after that?" Reggie said shyly.

Carrie was a little gobsmacked, watching Reggie walk out on the stage and introduce himself, picking up a shiny red bass to do a song he had written himself. She didn't even know he could play another instrument aside from piano! And he had devoted so much time to help her, he couldn't have spared some for himself?

Carrie's admiration of him grew exponentially, especially when he started to play. The song was a sweet love ballad with a punk edge, and some country sensibilities. She knew she'd be humming it later that day for sure. She was also sure she applauded louder than the judges when Reggie finished, but when he turned and smiled at her, the pink of his cheeks making him glow, she knew he appreciated it.

"Reggie!" she cried as they exited the auditorium. "You didn't tell me you could.... wow!"

"Shucks, thanks," Reggie replied, running his fingers through his hair. "Honestly bass is my primary instrument, I only really do the piano for school since there's no real guitar and bass centred course."

"I'm jealous," Carrie remarked. "I can't play any instruments and here you are shredding on two."

"More like four," Reggie mumbled, blushing bright.

"Four?"

"Piano, bass, banjo, and I'm pretty decent on acoustic guitar," Reggie admitted. "I'd like to learn fiddle too, since Julie started learning it and is loving it."

"You're just so talented!" Carrie exclaimed, then sobered. "I feel so... less compared to you. You'll definitely get the spot."

"Hey no," Reggie said, taking her hands into his. "Your song blew me away, and your dancing is top notch. I could never move like that. The spot is totally yours."

"Well thank you," Carrie replied, not pulling her hands away. "So to celebrate us both being uber talented and totally getting in, how about that lunch I promised you?"

"Sounds like a perfect first date," Reggie replied with a grin. "Since we're totally going to be the power couple at that school."

Carrie snorted, swinging their hands between them. "We'll see."

But in the end? Reggie was right, and Carrie was thankful every day for her super talented boyfriend.

Especially because when they were together? They made the sweetest music-in every sense of the word.

That people send hate over op Wild is beyond absurd and completely inappropriate. Tho I will admit it has caused me some frustration in the past. See it’s not when Wild is op that I feel irritated, it’s when Wild is op only because the rest of the cast has been massively nerfed and had all their braincells stolen that I personally get annoyed and click away.

It’s not that Wild shouldn’t be op, he clearly should be, it’s just that he should be a top tier op badass on a whole team of goddess blessed op badasses.

Wild is awesome! There is no reason everyone else needs to be torn down so he can shine. He doesn’t need 8 clever experienced heroes to suddenly become incompetent toddlers who need him to show them which end of a sword to grab to be amazing. I just don’t understand the appeal of any Link being the only Link capable of tying their own boots without assistance.

Bleh I forgot where I was going with this. Oh right answering your question. If your goal is to upset people then it’s not a matter of how great you make your fave it’s more a matter of how many dumps you take on their faves by proxie in the process. Death threats however remain absolutely unacceptable under any circumstances.

Full disclosure not a Wild hater. Sky is my favorite because I somehow I always fall for the nicest of the background characters. For me Wild comes in 4th place after Hyrule and Legend.

Thankfully this won't be an issue as the fic takes place pre-LU, the characters I have to balance with Wild are mostly Zelda and the champions (and pre-calamity Link), and most of the ways that Wild is being op is stuff that is kind of reasonable, though a lot of it is my own personal interpretation.

Anyway, literally no other Link gets the hate that Wild does, and it's made me extremely hesitant to join LU-only spaces because I know how people feel about him. I put a lot of emotional energy into this guy and always feel kind of terrible when people are mean to him. I get if he's not someone's favorite or if they're sick of seeing a lot of content with him when their faves don't get as much attention, but this negative attitude about him makes it super uncomfortable for people who really like him. I've seen so many Wild stans be afraid to write about him or post about him because of how they might be received in the fandom and that is NOT OKAY.

This should be a fun piece of media to add to and interact with and not something that people should feel afraid of contributing to.

I'm sorry for the rant, thanks for sending me this, I really appreciate an in-depth response lol.

GralunaIsland's 1 Year Anniversary!

I have no clue if it's cringe or not, but I just wanted to celebrate my blog's 1 year anniversary of existence a little!!

On this very day last year, October 21, 2021, I made my first Tumblr post, and it's been such a fun ride ever since.

Not only have I made some lasting, dear friendships because of it, it's just been a blast running it, because, yes, I get to run my mouth on a subject I feel so strongly about, but mostly because it's introduced me to a wonderful community of likeminded individuals and even some who disagree yet are so kind!

Continuing with the celebration, I'm shouting out some of my favorite followers/friends/visitors to my blog as a thank you for your kindness! (so sorry if this is embarrassing you; if it does, just dm me and I’ll edit it right away!)

@youthinkofacoolname My near and dear tumblr best friend, you've been my greatest supporter! Always giving me advice and discussing gr///via so wisely with me, even just chatting about whatever, and always understanding when life keeps me busy, not to mention liking all my posts and just being generally awesome! You're the best!! (Accept it!!)

@walkinginfiction My first amazing Tumblr friend who's very special to me, you’ve been here since the beginning! Even though you’re super busy with life, which is totally understandable, whenever you’re here, you give some of the kindest, most helpful support, and your comments are just so well thought out and intentional!

@pinkoperatorpursepie You're honestly just the sweetest person ever (with the absolutely cutest profile picture!!), always so on top of liking my posts as soon as they're posted. Your loyalty and vigilance mean so much to me! You're seriously one of my favorite followers!

@teamcharlastor You might change your username constantly, but you yourself never change! You’re so fun to talk with and you’re always sending me so many asks with great insight or questions! You’re such a great friend to me! Thank you for helping me keep the Anti gr///via fandom alive with your own posts on your blog too!

@bonnielass23 You've said some of the kindest things to me ever on this blog, and you're so thoughtful in your asks and comments! Your insight is superb! And your fanfics are brilliant! I utterly enjoy reading them; thank you for sharing them with me! Such a sweet person!

@nashadragneel Bestie, you're such a kind, amazing person! We may disagree on certain things, but our friendship is a testament that you can do so and look past your differences and live in harmony! You're a stellar individual!

@meancetosociety You’re such a sweetheart! You're so understanding, and you share your absolutely delightful head-canon and fanfic ideas with me and even ask for my humble opinion! I love talking to you!

@perfectlyimperfectcharacterfan Your insightful comments truly leave me in awe! I appreciate the meticulous attention you give my posts and for sharing your intelligent musings with me! They really have me thinking even deeper into the analyses I post, and I really appreciate how you push me to do so just by simply being a clever, sharp individual.

@nillajinx Last, but definitely not least-- your support really astounds me! You reblog so many of my posts I can’t even keep track! The appreciation I have for you knows no bounds. Thank you so much!

But also, huge thank you to all my followers and to everyone who even just reads my posts! >_<

Continuing on the celebration haha, in honor of 1 year of running this blog, over the course of today, I'll be reblogging some of my most favorite posts I've written over the year. I have no idea if other blogs do this, but if they don't I guess I'll just be the first to start this tradition!

My goal is that it'll let my new followers get a chance to see some of the older things I've written, and maybe some of my old followers will get to reread something they liked.

Lastly, just an update, I'm still getting through all my wonderful asks, so thank y'all so much for your infinite patience with me! Today my family came up to visit me from my hometown, so I don’t have too much time to myself rn, but things are getting done, I assure you (ง’̀-‘́)ง

Thank you all again for the support, and here’s to another year of Anti gr///via content!🎉

#happy graluna’s anniversary!#love y’all lots #anti gruvia #anti juvia #anti juvia lockser #anti juvia loxar #anti gray x juvia

The Photoshoot (Part 23)

Cillian Murphy

Previous parts here

A/N-Warning: ⚠️ There’s a photo I added in this part to explain a small consequence of what a high level of stress can do to human body, nothing nasty or ugly, simple truth, I have two friends who had something similar to this. Stress rash it’s called, If feel like Yael is too whiny here, think of it from a point of view where she’s been bottling everything inside… and remember to be kind to everyone around you, we don’t know what the other one might be going through 💝

Notes: I hope the game isn’t too nasty, I went to a baby shower with my friends and we played this game exactly 🍼👶🏻

Photo credits: Rochelle Deanna Karidis(model)/ if you have a Photoshoot you like, send me the photos maybe we can fit it into the story 😉

“God I’m so nervous.” Rochelle declared as she was getting a touch up on her makeup. “I’m really sorry I had to reschedule.”

She reminded Yael of Snow White, the Disney princess, pale skin, super black hair, blue eyes and red bright lips, but with a modern touch.

“I hope the allergy wasn’t so bad.”

“I still think it’s the hair dye.” Alyssa, her friend and makeup artist commented.

“Really?” Yael tried some shoots against the window.

Rochelle then explained she had the same reaction in the past, but still wasn’t sure if it was an actual allergy or stress.

Yael looked at her. She knew first hand stress did horrible things to people.

“Yeah, I’ve been having a hard time lately, I’ve been on tour with my boyfriend, we are in the middle of our wedding preparation, dealing with the fans…”

“So, this is kind of a bridal photoshoot?” She noticed her arms covered with tattoos.

“I haven’t thought about it, I wanted these photos to be just for him.”

“Okay, let’s get the groom something sexy then. Take off your blouse and bra.” She was used to naked bodies, it was art, the human body was a temple she respected so much.

“Oh, just like that?” She seemed worried. “Let’s just try it out, if you don’t like it, you don’t show him the photos.” Yael suggested. She always tried to make her clients feel comfortable around the camera. So she instructed Rochelle to walk over the window, the contrast of the light added an angelic touch. “Cover your breasts with your hands and look over here.”

It was the perfect way to shot all of her body art.

They seemed to love the idea, feeling more relaxed, taking her top off made her forget about being shy in front of the camera, plus she trusted Yael and the incredible result of her work.

Yael shot a few photos of her in bed and finally as the session was coming to an end she asked: “Can you get in the bathtub? I filled it with water.” Rochelle looked at her friend and smiled.

Yael’s phone interrupted her instructions. “I will be really quick, it’s my boyfriend, he is in Ireland.”

“Hey! I know you’re busy, just wanted to wish you a good shooting. I love you.”

Yael couldn’t stop the smile from her lips.

“Love you too and miss you like crazy… will call you when I get home.”

After hanging up, Rochelle was smiling at Yael, she was already in the bathtub.

“You sound like me, when my boyfriend is away. How did you meet?”

“In a Photoshoot, I was taking his photographs for a magazine.” Yael explained briefly without saying much about Cillian, respecting his privacy. Yael snapped a photo BTS of them.

“That’s amazing, I met him in a Photoshoot too! But I was doing the makeup.”

“Wow… funny coincidence. Right look up here.”

***

“And finally, from September 11 to October 11 we’ll be at the National Theater in London.” Cillian smiled at her through the video call they were making. As soon as the dates for the play were over, he was planning to take some long vacations he just needed to check the dates and place with Yael to be together.

“You will be here for a month?” Her voice lighting up.

“Yeah, it’s good right?” Yael nodded, happy with the news. “I thought you would like that.”

“Definitely, looking forward to it.”

“You can have your friends and family come over, I can get you a couple of tickets.”

“Thank you, I bet they will like the play.”

Cillian looked at her, even though she was smiling, he could see she was sad. She had been scratching her arm.

“Will you be able to come over next week?” He asked hopeful.

The smile left her face completely, she had been traveling a lot, moved a lot of her engagements to be able to be with him, now she had been doing two sometimes three photoshoots a day to get her agenda back on track. She had prints to ship, needed to upload some photos to her web page, edit…

“I still don’t know, I really want to, but I have a couple of photoshoots scheduled already… the dates aren’t defined yet, I’m waiting for the confirmation.”

“Baby it’s okay, it’s fine… please don’t worry.” He didn’t want to put her into any more pressure. “I just loved having you here visiting.”

“Me too, I had a great time in the island.” The memories playing on her mind, it had been a wonderful getaway, feeling like she recharged batteries.

“Come back and I will take you again.” He chuckled.

Yael smiled. “I want to… but let me see the dates alright?”

Cillian nodded. What was it with the need to have her close?

“When I called yesterday, you were at a doctor’s appointment. What happened?” He wanted to ask her about that. Yael looked away. “What’s going on my love?”

Cillian didn’t expect to see her lower lip trembling, her eyes filled with tears as she covered her face, moving away from the camera.

“Yael.”

What’s happening? He thought, worried about her reaction. Was this because he went out last night to drink and forgot to call her back?

“Can I call you back later?” She tried to wipe away the tears.

“No, I want you to tell me why are you crying, I’m fucking worried about you.”

She waved her hand as if it was nothing. “My period is close, it’s just the fucking hormones.”

“You’re probably right, but I know that’s not all… talk to me.”

She took her time to answer him, taking deep breaths, she tried to calm herself.

“Mum saw my arm, and she forced me to go to the doctor… I’ve done this before, not on purpose of course, I just can’t help it.”

“What is it? Why?”

“The worst part is gone now, don’t worry… I had some creams for it already.” Looking down at her hands she explained: “It’s just stress, I worry too much, I know you’re doing just fine and this is normal to you with your work, but I’m learning ok? This long-distance relationship is completely new to me, I… I don’t know.” She mumbled. Feeling like finally all of her worries and fears were getting the best of her. The fact that she didn’t know if she could travel back again and when was making her not only frustrated, but upset as well.

He asked her to get close to the camera, he could only see a red mark on her arm, but as she moved closer, the damage was more visible. Why didn’t he see it when she was over there?

“I know you have your parents asking you this, but please stop scratching your arm?”

Yael gave him a small nod. “I’m trying. It’s just… there are a lot of things going on and I miss you.”

“I miss you too.”

He felt so bad, because deep down, he knew part of her stress was caused by him, the whole baby situation had been a mayor change for them not only in the present time, but in how it would turn upside down their future. Sure, it was easy to say ‘don’t worry about things that aren’t happening yet’, but he knew those worries had a valid reason. She would be turned into a stepmother overnight, and she had accepted it in a very humble way, pouring her heart out, offering to help in everything she could. She already had been reading books about how to make things easier for the child to be around the new partner, telling him things he would need to buy to make the place safer, she had already investigated how good it is for a baby to grow with a dog, according to a few sources it made the babies immune system stronger and Labradors were excellent company, since they have a kind soul.

He knew Yael was a blessing in his life, without her, this whole thing would be much harder. That’s why he completely understood the effect the stress was having on her.

If this was the other way around, he wasn’t so sure he could deal with her having someone else’s baby like she was doing.

“What can I do to make it better, my love?”

“Nothing, but thank you really… it’s just the stress of the things I can’t control.”

The distance, work, the baby, their relationship…

“Don’t want to see you worrying, I’m taking a few days off from the rehearsal.”

“No, look it’s getting better I promise, I don’t want you to distract right now.”

Sighting, she saw Cillian biting his lip. “Is your offer of me going over there still on the table?” She asked after a few minutes.

“100% I would love to have you here for a longer period of time. Forever if you can.” He assured her. He wanted it so bad, but asking her to move in over and over again didn’t feel right, Cillian wanted her to do it on her own time. “I don’t want you to worry about anything, alright? Just come over when you are done with your contracts.”

“I’m working on my photobook, to show it there…”

For now, it was the best she could do, for her, to be there for him, for their relationship, she could easily fit her career in Ireland.

“This is the best news I’ve heard in a while, that you are coming.” He smiled at her, and Yael mirrored him. “But I can’t help it to feel bad that you are finishing your contracts there.”

Yael shook her head. “I’m not giving up my dreams… I’m just relocating them to the Emerald Island.”

She was so sure of her decision and all the good things it would do to their relationship that it didn’t feel like she was giving up anything, quite the opposite, she was doing everything in her power to make their relationship work.

“You have no idea how happy this is making me.” Running his hands through his hair, Yael saw the smile reach his eyes.

She knew, of course she knew, because she felt the same way.

***

Enda insisted on going back home with him after the rehearsal, Yael told him she couldn’t go with him to the theater because she was busy editing some photos she had to print and ship.

“Can I use your bathroom?” His friend asked.

“As long as you don’t take it.”

“Ha-ha, you don’t have any other jokes but the same old from ten years ago?”

But before Cillian could reply anything, a loud round of “SURPRISE!” filled the apartment.

He was indeed, surprised to see his best friends gathered in his place. Hugging one by one, until he found his brother Pad last in the line.

“What the fuck are you doing here dickhead?”

“I love you too, dickhead.” Pad replied hugging his older brother. “This is your daddy shower.” Pad pointed around. “Organized by no other than your super comprehensive, broad-minded and patience girlfriend…” turning to his brother, Pad added: “I really hope you are thinking of getting serious with her, because I don’t know of a single woman who would go into all this trouble like she did.”

Yael then came out of the kitchen smiling, she had a lovely blush on her cheeks.

“What’s all of this? I love it, when did you do it?” His arms wrapped around her immediately, kissing her lips softly. Looking around he found a fucking adorable one piece with instructions fail proof.

He was overwhelmed by her actions. This wasn’t just about the baby, it was about showing him he had the love and support from his closest friends. There was nothing in this world with which he could pay her what she was doing for him.

“I thought you could use a little fun, after all the things you’ve been through…” Her hands caressed his cheeks earning a few whistles and growls from his friends. “Enda and your brother helped me a lot.”

There was a chalkboard and a fishbowl to suggest baby names. He didn’t know yet if it was a boy or a girl.

“No, no you need to take the full credit, she did everything, the food, decoration, the games…” Pad put an arm around her shoulders in a friendly sign, the little he knew about Yael, he knew she was a good woman, he liked her.

Cillian noticed the banner in neutral colors, in the corner there was a teddy bear with balloons.

“I’m scared to drink that.” One of his friends joked.

“It’s just lemonade with food colorant.” She made one pink and one blue.

After hearing that, Ferch decided he could drink a glass. “Cill is different you know, good kind of different since you are around.”

“He makes me feel different too in a good way.” Yael looked in his direction, talking to some of his friends, noticing her eyes on him, Cillian winked at her.

“So, I heard you have some baby games prepared for us.” There was a diaper-pong board in the corner.

The genuine smile on Yael’s lips made Cillian walk straight to her. “I do! And I hope you guys are willing to participate.”

Enda whistled for the men to be quiet. All of them got close to the dining room. There were diapers on the table.

“Since I don’t have much experience with babies, I was hoping some of you could share some tips and advice with Cill when it comes to babies, the dynamic here as you know it’s a little bit unusual, but I’m sure even I can learn from your experiences.”

“You want me to show him how to put a nappy?” One of them asked her.

“Not right now, those are for a game, I printed you guys the instructions and I will leave it to you.”

“Babe… what makes you think these fuckers read instructions?” Cillian had a funny look on his face. “I don’t read instructions.”

“Stay with us Yael.” His brother suggested.

“But this daddy-shower is for you.”

She thought the guys could use some time away from any female company, but soon a chorus asking her to stay filled the room.

“Will you stay?” Cillian asked giving her a pleading gaze.

Nodding, she smiled at him.

“Okay so, Cill has said you have some funny dark kind of humor, I think this game will match your expectations. The diapers on the table have different kinds of chocolate, you have to taste it and guess which one is that.”

She opened one of the five diapers in front of them and laughed loudly with the disgust expressions and sounds they made.

Frowning, Enda asked: “What the hell is that?”

“It’s chocolate!” As if it wasn’t obvious.

“On a fucking diaper?!” Dermot was about to throw up.

“Ah come on! And now you are all saints, right?” She grinned.

Cillian looked in Yael’s direction amused.

“If this is the first game… wonder what you have in store for game #5…” Cillian crossed his arms in front of his chest, an amused look on his face.

“It’s just chocolate, and you have eaten worse, so stop whining.” Ferch declared, he took the lead, took one of the diapers and licked the chocolate. “Snickers?” He moved off the table with the diaper on his hands to keep licking it.

Cillian was next. “Easy, this one is the Langer bar.” He winked at her. “Are you gonna kiss me now?” He had chocolate on his nose.

“If you had chosen the one with milk chocolate I would kiss you.” But she kissed him anyways.

In the end, one by one took a diaper and guessed the chocolate. And Cillian a great time thanks to Yael.

Lets ask the Girls of Class 77 what they think of Genderbend!Hajime!!!!

Disclaimer: R18 material! If not to your liking then please do not read!

Chiaki

"Hm? May? It took a bit of adjusting to her, but Hajime will always be Hajime~ And now we can do even even more stuff together, like share each other's clothes! She really looks good in spare pajamas...really good actually~" Chiaki blushed, her mind wandering to May plump butt filling out her Pac-Man maze pajamas pants really well and how the Sonic themed crop top exposed her lover's tight stomach just enough underboob from her massive tits~

Akane

"Eh? Hart? Ohhh, right, that guy's a girl now. Eh, doesn't mean much to me. Dude's the same as ever, always quick to make a racket. You should have seen her yesterday. I kept telling her it was fine to go topless at the beach and even dragged her about to show her, but she kept on squeaking. Real cute to look at though~"

Sonia

"Hajime? Oh, 'May'! It's been quite the curious affair to get to know the new Hinata after being used to the old for so long, but I took it as a challenge to allow the both of us to bond over some Novoselic culture! Now Nut November is still on-going and having someone as voluptuous as her help relieve my pent-up citizens has been a godsend~"

Peko

"That would be May now, correct? Given her new form, I actually decide to spar with her since I wanted to see if she still had her old, fit body. And...well..." Huh? Peko was blushing madly as thoughts of May in Peko's tight uniform came back to her. "She is...as healthy as expected."

Ibuki

"Ibuki thinks May-May is hot as Hell itself~ She can give even Mikan and Peko-Peko a run for their money~ Ibuki just had to greet her by running up and diving into those double D's of hers~ They just looked so soft and nommable, you know?!"

Mahiru

"O-oh, Hajime...or May? I'm sorry, it's been a time trying to adjust to her. But, I suppose its just...the same? Kind of? I've been trying to help her adjust as best as I can since what she's going through is quite a shift from what she was. It's been fun hanging out with May still! I've been taking pictures of her in the new outfits I gave her, to show her that she looks really amazing!...H-huh?! O-of course, its just that!!" She wouldn't dare try to take sneaky pics of May doing lewd stuff by accident...wouldn't dream of it~

Hiyoko

"Doesn't matter how you slice it, a dweeb is still a dweeb!! And as long as I can get her to still gimme piggyback rides or do my stuff for me, then nothing's changed!!" Hiyoko said, though as she stomped off, you can't help but her her grumbling over something about May's 'cow tits' sticking out in a kimono for some reason?

Mikan

"I-I th-that's...H-hajime has h-helped me so much in the past!! I-I just had to help him out when he became a girl!! I w-was the one that did her examination when we learned she'd changed and I was...s-super g-gentle to get her settled in~ Sh-she comes back to me daily for tr-treatment~ Teeheehee~ I love her just as much, no matter what gender she is~" Mikan's face would slowly warp into a loving, yet kind of creepy grin as she remembered the times she had to 'examine' May's body. In full detail, with an added bonus to help the new girl out.

Hikaru’s 1st Stage Play 「GOOD LUCK YOUR MEMORIES：Re」

I hope some of you used this amazing opportunity to purchase a ticket for Hikaru’s stage play broadcast. The limited run is officially over so I thought I would share the version I purchased (Team A). If anyone happened to get Team B and is willing to share, please let me know! 🙏

For links and a detailed summary, please look beneath the cut 〈(•ˇ‿ˇ•)-→

❗FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY❗ ❗CREDIT ME if you USE/SHARE parts of this❗

『Good Luck Your Memories-Re』 Team A

『Good Luck Your Memories-Re』 Team B ※ Courtesy of one of my super kind followers. Thank you so much!

»»—— CLICK ME 🎁 CLICK ME ——««

Detailed Summary (beware of spoilers):

“I will surely return to collect my reward - your memories!” Takuma - a run-of-the-mill private investigator, Seiji - a nerdy officer of an anti crime unit and Kosuke - a wannabe gangster. Three men that have been close friends since their school days. Despite their conflicting professions, they promised they would never interfere with each other’s work and have thus remained close. This changes when a mysterious woman named Shizuku (=Hikaru) suddenly appears on the scene. Wanting to escape her current life, Shizuku has chosen to run away but she is being chased by her older sister Itsuki. The men step in to help her and decide to take her under their wing. For the first time in her life, she experiences friendship and kindness, especially during her interactions with Takuma’s assistant Yui. After a while, the three friends find out about Shizuku’s special abilities. Everyone who enters a contract with her may go back in time to change a moment they regret. Initially, the men do not believe her story but when both Kosuke and Seiji find themselves in a predicament, they are willing to make a pact with Shizuku. Her powers turn out to be in fact genuine and both men manage to change a past event in their favour. However, in the wake of doing so, they are unknowingly breaking the rule of never interfering with each other’s work. Soon they become top dog in their respective professions. Eventually, Takuma learns that the price of using Shizuku’s ability is a gradual memory loss. Not only that, their existence also starts disappearing from loved ones’ memories. Basically, the course of history is changed. The only one who remains mysteriously unaffected by all of this is Takuma. As memories are lost, personality slowly changes and humanity is stripped away, the two men become corrupted. This results in a lethal showdown between the yakuza and the anti-crime-force that threatens to destroy the entire city. As Takuma watches the drama unfold he wants to protect his friends, discover the secrets behind Shizuku’s abilities and reveal the true motives of the mysterious Itsuki. Alas, he is powerless in the face of organised crime and ultimately cannot stop his former friends from killing each other and taking several people with them. Shizuku is heartbroken to witness how her actions have indirectly caused so much pain and death.She feels like she has no other choice but to kill her sister Itsuki in order to put a stop to this endless suffering. However, before Shizuku can finish the deed, Itsuki manages to fatally wound her younger sister. With her final breath, Shizuku makes a pact with Takuma. Lives are restored, the trajectories of Seiji’s and Kosuke’s careers are completely changed leading to a happy and fruitful life for both of them. The price that needs to be paid - the erasure of Takuma’s existence from people’s minds. Takuma being an anomaly, is able to keep his memories but he is now living together with Shizuku in another dimension where they have been forgotten by everyone they have come to love. Only small traces of memory remain…

Do you have any ship regrets? Like a ship you were ALL IN on, but then dropped - be it because the source material didn't treat them right, their fandom annoyed you, the actors ended up being trash, etc.?

oh TOTALLY. YES. a lot of these i have not revisited in years so we're operating off of vague recollections here, BUT HERE'S A LIST OF SEVERAL OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. not a comprehensive list but a ramble i'm sorry

clay/gemma on sons of anarchy. i love villainous marrieds and complicated ships, but. then he beat the shit out of her. idk idk i'm just left with a lot of mixed feelings here. clearly i can under other circumstances move beyond this kind of shitty occurence (it took me a long time to get past ep 5 of iwtv bc of this) but i never quite got over this with clay/gemma. when they were good tho they were AMAZING. i love an evil king and queen. but ya kno. yikes

max/murphy on in the dark. the second i was given leslie/max i was so immediately VIBIN i realized that like. i'd never REALLY loved max/murphy. i'd just been shipping what was in front of me, being super into casey deidrick, and brushing off a lot of the bad vibes i felt about it. and lol i never watched the last season but i heard about how shit went down with leslie/max so like thats not a forever otp or anything, it just helped me realize that max/murphy was not really my jam

dorothy/lucas on emerald city. this is a ship that i was into the idea of, then shipped like BURNING at the end of that ep when he keeps trying to tell the knock knock joke and she was like internally screaming. but then we got his identity, fixed his amnesia, and his love for glinda, and it just. it ruined a good thing is what i have to say. it just left me annoyed at the end of the day.

bonnie/jeremy on tvd. i know a lot of my friends were anti this ship to start with for a lot of reasons (and a lot of ppl were anti it back in the day bc they were still hoping for jeremy/tyler) but they had some cute content, and honestly I was relieved there was SOMEONE who was putting bonnies life first. but then he cheated on her with a ghost.......... i love anna but. REALLY?

jessica/luke in the marvel netflix universe. oh this one hurts. this one hurts a lot. i LOOOOOOOOOOVE comics jessica/luke. ANOTHER FUCK FIRST FEELINGS LATER SHIP! I LOVE THOSE! and when we first saw them together in the jessica jones show i thought it was going great! the actors have good chemistry and i loved their interactions! BUT. THEN. SHE KILLED HIS WIFE. AND SHE KNEW THIS AND HAD BEEN STALKING HIM OUT OF GUILT. AND THEN HAD SEX WITH HIM KNOWING SHE KILLED HIS WIFE. look obviously reva's death was not her fault, in any way. she had zero control over that situation. but she had control over her actions during the series, and she chose to get close to luke and have sex with him, knowing exactly how his wife died and that kilgrave was behind it, and not telling him shit til she absolutely had to. i can appreciate their relationship for what it is in that universe, but i reALLY can't ship it anymore.

bay/emmett on switched at birth. they were SO CUTE. SOOOOOOOOO CUTE. i loved this ship a lot. then the show got more boring and i stopped watching it, and then like?? he was a huge asshole?? after she was assaulted?? LITERALLY WHAT THE FUCK. idk whatever way you slice it, however that all went down in context that i'm missing, it just sounds like such a betrayal and now i get twitchy thinking about it

hayley/elijah on the originals. i distinctly remember being super hype the first time they had sex. then after she became a vampire, he became extraordinarily judgmental and i just shut down at the idea entirely. extremely meh to me 5ever

some other vague ones: jim/any of his love interests on gotham (they kept STARTING good but then jim being jim it........ blew up), len/sara and barry/len in the dc tv universe (len/sara became boring to me much much quicker, esp bc the fandom surrounding it left a lot to be desired. barry/len took longer and i still really appreciate the dynamic but i began finding it kinda boring lol. its a westallen micklen life for ME) (i can still get into coldwestallen tho, that's still fun for me and its a very different kind of fandom angle that's not so..... uwu little barry and his zaddy type of vibe), so many ships on good trouble they really worked overtime to RUIN, i still cannot belieeeeeeeve hit the floor wrote ahsha/derek off by saying he was angry at her for having an abortion (one of many WHAT THE FUCK SEASON 4?!?!?!! moments), a ship i won't name that i was into for a few seasons, then started finding boring, then their stans started sending me kill yourself anons bc i'd started shipping a competing ship (IT'S NOT A GREAT LOOK YOU GUYS), james/kara on supergirl was SO CUTE and the show immediately destroyed it the second they could, in a way that just leaves me annoyed and bitter and incapable of shipping the season 1 version anymore, CHASE/GERT IN THE RUNAWAYS SHOW, another example where i still ship their comics selves hardcore but god. i hate some of the choices they made for their tv counterparts, and season 2 really killed a lot of it for me.

i'm sure theres fifty more EXTREMELY PRESSING EXAMPLES but this is all i got for now <333

Been a while since I’ve posted something related to XIV so here’s some Carmina. There was something about next patch using portraits for more dungeons and stuff or something? I dono I don’t really pay attention to announcements and just skim patch notes for stuff I care about when things actually come out but I heard something about this and decided that I needed to go in and make portaits for every class. This also resulted in me tweaking a couple glams and making a few new ones. Sadly I use two of my glam plats for my Crafter and Gatherer glams so MNK/SAM and DRG/RPR have to share outfits for now. PLEASE SE I just need 2 more glam plates (though also like a nice rounded 5 would be nice to keep holiday outfits separate on). Anyways random details about all the tweaks and new outfits (along with some of my general long winded ramblings) below the cut I guess.

So SCH, RDM, MCH, and NIN got completely new looks. My old SCH was too close in color and used a lot of the same pieces as my SGE look I put together for story this expansion so it had to go. RDM used a top that I had modded and so didn’t look right anymore. The top it has WAS originally on my new MCH look but I had shifted that to be more pirate-y and still wanted to use the top and it looks great in red. NIN was going to get a modified version of a Cait Sith cosplay I put together for a group Halloween shot my FC did but then I realized when lookig through stuff that I had the Neo-Ishgardian top and that plan went out the window as I decided I had a need to work around that top for the look.

Meanwhile... BRD continues to get stuck with my holiday look whatever that ends up being. So for now it gets to support my Christmas gear. Maybe after the holidays I’ll change it but the look is solid on its own holiday season or not so it may just stay.

For more minor changes... My DNC used to sport a hat, I might even have some screenshots somewhere on here from the past where it still sports that hat. The look was built around an old old glam from the HW days that I made that was very... tap-dancer-esque. These days the new look has kind of been a Mina default look and is what I base a lot of my art and designing around but I always leave out the hat so decided I’d switch it with glasses. They might not stay but I do always love the look of glasses on Mina. Second only to hair flowers (I just didn’t feel I had any good ones on hand to go with the look).

MNK/SAM got new earrings and DRG/RPR got new nails. These were both super minor style changes. I wanted some earrings that were lowkey and that I didn’t really use much (instead of my usual heart earrings) for the MNK/SAM look. That look has always been a staple of my wardrobe since at least early HW if not sooner than that. It’s simple and effective and was built entirely around the gloves and going “what else can I make black that has gold accents?” The DRG/RPR look is similarly an old classic of mine, built completely around the Maelstrom coat. I used to have the sharp beastly nails on the look and I just switched those out for the like regular painted nails. Super minor change for a look that has never stopped being amazing. The way the Y’shtola HW boots pair with that coat is too dang powerful.

As one last random aside, BLU continues to be my most extra look. I have tried to make it over the top and extravagant in ever incarnation I’ve made of it. This one is decidedly less silly than it’s first main glam (which I should dig up some old pics of) but it still has that very loud, “LOOK AT ME” showmanship to the design. Every time I make a new outfit for it I have a lot of fun with it. The only look that I think brings me more joy from the sillyness of it is my blindfolded “I can’t read” SMN look.
