masterlist ✢ next

Vic Presley confirms y/n hasn't reached out to her even after Vic called asked her to in a publication a few days ago.

"I think she has blocked my number by now," Presley said, "I am devastated by this. I didn't think it was like her to discard relationships so easily."

Presley and y/ln have been friends since 2020, when they met at the opening of the SENSE Club in downtown Los Angeles and quickly became inseparable.

"y/n really was— is my best friend. I miss her and I want her to come back to me."

Vic Presley also commented on y/n's split from Aidan Kim in her own way: "I hate that she hurt Aidan. I was not aware they had so many problems, that's definitely the kind of stuff you tell your best friend."

y/n was spotted just a week ago with alleged (and constantly denied) boyfriend, Charles Leclerc on a stroll around Central Park. Victoria Presley couldn't help but speak her mind on this.

"y/n has changed so much since she met that guy. I met him in Miami and Monaco, he's not one of the good ones. He's managing to isolate her from everyone who loves her."

Once again, Victoria urges y/n to contact her so they can rekindle their friendship. "I am not angry at her, disappointed maybe. But I will always have my arms open for her."

SEE ALSO:

→ Mia Kim, the talented sister of Aidan Kim, set to make big screen debut.

→ Were Mia Kim and Victoria Presley mocking y/n y/ln in new Youtube Video?

→ Mia Kim: "y/n should have kept her mouth shut, there's still shit to be exposed about her."

FROM THE DREW BARRYMORE SHOW — JULY 6TH

[Y/N]: ❝(...) What matters to me right now, is that people now I am nothing of what they're calling me. I am not perfect, nobody is. But I have never cheated on a partner or used someone else as a 'toy' and most importantly, I built my own career.❞

[Y/N]: ❝It gets exhausting, you hear things about yourself you never even thought possible. It could be laughable if it wasn't so cruel❞

[Y/N]: ❝My relationship ended in February, but I believe it was over way before that. I acted in a way that was not fair to my ex-partner nor to myself, and I expressed my regrets about it. He had the right to not accept my apology, but not to make stuff up about the whole situation.❞

[Y/N]: ❝He's feeding his ego, he's a man, after all. But doing it at the expense of my work and my reputation is disgusting. I want one producer or casting agent to come forward and say they gave me a role thanks to my ex-boyfriend's input, just one.❞

[Y/N]: ❝I have surrounded myself with different people. They have been a great support system, always motivating me, and holding me back when I'm about to do something stupid. This also means I have left some people out of what's going on with me, and it's for the best.❞

[Y/N]: ❝Taylor Swift, bless her soul, has given me a lot of advice. She's the sweetest person ever and since the same guy that is trying to drag me has gone after her in a few interviews, she wants this to be over as much as I do. I think he made a mistake by messing with Taylor too.❞

[Y/N]: ❝Rumors will keep running, but I am finally at peace with knowing who I am and who I can trust. But those 'sources' should know my patience is running out.❞

By Jenny Highland // July 20th

Mia Kim and Victoria Presley are the hottest topic right now, but not for the reasons both influencers wish, as they are in trouble!

Both Los Angeles locals have received a 'Cease and Desist' letter from recovering actress y/n y/ln this week, per her team's advice. This was confirmed by both Presley and Kim on Twitter, saying they are 'flabbergasted' that y/n is accusing them of defamation.

While y/n is far from gaining her place back in the public's heart, we are not blind to what Victoria and Mia have done for the past month, riding the wave to get views and followers talking about their shared time with y/n. Who has every right to ask them to stop, as she has done in several interviews throughout the month.

For many people, this makes it more evident that it was either Presley or Kim who contacted tabloids to get their five minutes of fame and sink y/n deeper.

Actions have consequences for everyone, and if y/n decided to pick this fight at this point in her downfall/rerise/wherever it is that we are with her, it's because she knows she can win, right?

─── team principal radio: ❝thank you for reading! please let me know your thoughts! I know I'm ending your patience with this slow burn thing but I promise you we're getting there! Charles is back next chapter and you'll see haha. again, your interactions mean the world to me and i'm sorry if sometimes i don't reply to your comments, i'm just awkward but i love you all♡❞

Ahhh~ Thank you so much! I'm glad you like and enjoy writing and that requests don't bother you!

I've read the part too and I like it very much! Thank you for making my day better again and again! ^*^

Can I ask you please for part 3 (maybe 4 too?) for any U-20 and Neo egoists league characters like Oliver, Sae, Kaiser, Ness etc and coaches like Ego (I really want to read about his relationships with manager-chan. I feel that he warms up for her too x)), Chris, Snuffy, Noa etc.

Thank you for your answer, I was happy to get it!~ Have a great day and I wish you a lot of inspiration!~

With love,

Garden

Author:Thank u for the request! Oohhh I have so many ideas when it comes to the coaches! So I will be doing them individually! For the other players I have smth in mind and will be doing it later on! For now I wrote abt Ego, so I hope u like it🩷 also if u are looking for some cute platonic HC with the coaches @/maochira has great ones! They always leave me so happy ^^

Warnings ⚠️: none in particular. Reader uses she/her. Requests are open

⚽️Blue lock belongs to:Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura⚽️

Interview day...

"This place is really huge... they didn't lie when they wrote it's a huge, nationwide project." (Y/n) thought as she stood in front of the Blue Lock headquarters. A week ago she received an invitation for an internship at Blue Lock, and as she was excited joining it, she was terrified. Will she be good enough for it? Will the players like her as their manager? Will the people interviewing see her as fit for the position?

Taking a deep breath, (Y/n) walked inside already seeing a woman with reddish-brown hair waving at her.

"You must be (L/n) (Y/n). I am Teieri Anri, I will be interviewing you along with the head of this project." The woman smile as she approached (Y/n) and the girl bowed.

"Thank you for inviting me, it's an honor." The girl said with a red face.

'Teieri-san is so beautiful! I saw her on TV a few times, having her as a possible mentor would be so cool!' (Y/n) thought as the woman lead her down the hallway, explaining that it's just some formalities they will go over.

"By the way, don't let yourself get scared off by Ego-san... he seems scary at first glance, but he means well." Anri warned the girl, who simply nodded her head.

Black eyes bore into (Y/n) as the girl kept fidgeting in her spot. Ego Jinpachi, as she came to know him, was scarier than (Y/n) had expected, but she shouldn't be surprised.

'You would expect him to be like that if he has to deal with a bunch of high schoolers.' The girl thought as Ego sighed, finally speaking up again.

"Alright, this one might do. Cancel the other interviews we had planned." Ego told Anri.

'Did... did I get the spot?!' (Y/n) thought alarmed as Anri nodded her head.

"And you think you will be able to stand the pressure?"

"I... well I have some experience from working with my school's football team, as I stated in the beginning. I also have some basic knowledge in the sport."

"Alright, Anri-chan will give you a little tour. You are expected to move here in 2 days. Now go."

'Harsh and straight to the point.' (Y/n) thought as she followed the woman out of the room.

"It went better than I expected! Some of the candidates folded 10 minutes after speaking to him, I think you will fit in here just right."

"R-really?! He was worse than this?!" (Y/n) asked, shivering at the idea.

"Not really, he is the same to everyone. You just argued with him on some points and maybe you didn't notice."

"I-I did... Sorry, I get lost when u talk sometimes." (Y/n) said, ashamed a little, but Anri kept reassuring her that it was fine.

"Don't you think this is brutal? To eliminate them just because they lost a tag game? And Kira is one of the best high school players too." Anri argued after the entrance exam was finished and both her and (Y/n) witnessed Ego argue with the white haired boy.

"It's final, if he can't think fast, he is not made for a striker." Ego said simply as he ate his yakisoba.

"Well, I am trusting you with them." Anri gave up.

"What is the next step? Will you start the matches soon?" (Y/n) questioned as the man shook his head.

"First we have a stamina training, then the real challenges will start. This is a game of elimination and survival of the fittest. Only the strongest egoist will survive this." (Y/n) nodded her head, looking at the monitors that showed the various teams.

'Ego-san sure is brutal, but in order to build up football from nothing we need the strongest... and so far it's these guys.' (Y/n) thought as she wrote down the names of all the players who are going further.

'Hmmm.' Ego raised an eyebrow, deciding to say nothing for now.

"Did you-"

"The goal was put just in the height you requested and every training area is equipped with water."

"And the-"

"The alarms are set just as you requested with that blaring sound."

"Also-"

"Ordered the Yakisoba."

Anri held back a giggled as Ego kept on being interrupted by the girl as she answered everything. It had been 2 weeks by then and (Y/n) finally got into a routine. It was funny for Anri to watch Ego pout in defeat as he told her to go assist Team V.

"I see you found someone who can't be easily intimated or angered." The woman teased as Ego shrugged his shoulders.

"Or you are growing soft."

"Shut up. You talk too much."

The next few days went somewhat peaceful and it was the night before the final match. Ego decided to do some more research on the players and prepare for the next step, when he heard noises from his office.

"I didn't leave anything on..." He muttered and opened the door, only to find (Y/n) inside, looking intensely at the game Team Z and Team Y had.

"What are you doing up so late? Watching a game at that?"

"Ego-san? I am taking notes of some of the players, you said you wanted to do some analysis but didn't have time."

The man was surprised as her words, but didn't show it as he took the notebook from her. He read it through, surprised how well detailed she was on the players.

"Why are you doing this? And how are you sure this is right?"

"I just like analyzing, I did the same in school too. And I am not a 100% sure, but 9 times out of 10 I was right, so I am pretty confident in this." (Y/n) answered calmly as Ego handed her the notebook and sat down next to her.

"Continue, u want to read these later."

Nodding, (Y/n) did as she was told while Ego just kept watching the screen.

"What did I say about feeding her garbage?!" Anri yelled as she saw (Y/n) and Ego eat the Yakisoba from the fridge.

"It's good food. In order to be a good at analyzing, she needs to eat." Ego argued as Anri handed (Y/n) some vegetables and fish.

"Here, eat this instead. We don't want you to get sick." Anri said, sending a side glare at Ego.

"What arebyou two even doing now?" The woman asked, looking down at the papers on Ego's table.

"I am teaching (Y/n) the essentials of reading the enemy. Now, as I said..."

Anri sighed as she watched Ego talking and (Y/n) nodding her head from time to time, with questions coming from her.

'This looks oddly cute... to see Ego-san have a soft spot for anyone is a once in a lifetime thing.'

Anri smiled softly and went on with the paperwork she had left for the day.

"Code red." Anri whispered to Ego who turned to look in the direction (Y/n) was.

"Not him now..." Ego sighed as he got up to pull the girl away from Oliver and Sae, but Bachira and Rin beat him to it. The boys pulled the girl away, saying some nonsense.

"Or maybe not." Anri laughed.

"Now I know for sure you have a soft spot."

"I don't. I just don't want more issues than I already have." Ego protested, keeping an eye on the U-20 team.

"Sure, sure~" Anri mucked.

— rivals to lovers !

synopsis: sworn rivals in terms of academics. you two would never even share a glance at eachother. your animosity towards eachother was quite well known throughout the academiya. yet here comes this co-project that will be the cupid for you two.

⌗:, a/n: its a special fic for my irl bestie. it was a deal and I had to do this @isqaroth

⌗:, warning: big tits men scare me.

" considering how you are, I'd say this project suits you. nothing but a waste of time."

You gasped and snapped back at him, "oh? so who gave you this authority to belittle the hardwork of someone? hmph!" you glared at him fiercely and stomped away. Your shoes were clacking against the marble floor quite loudly showing your clear hatred towards him.

"alhaitham, must you truly pick on them today of all days?" kaveh tried to reason, "today is after all the day we present our projects to ensure our enrollment in the best departments."

"What I said was not wrong. How do they expect to get a good seat when they've clearly chosen the topic that others will choose?" stating this he walked away the other direction towards his classroom which he was assigned.

It was the time when the students would be called to their respective departments. Contrary to what Alhaitham had guessed, your project was one of the best among the students and found the best class in your own Darshan.

"so? Mister alhaitham?" you snickered in his direction, "Looks like your intuition missed the bullseye this time." Even he found it quite odd, his guess and intuitions are always spot on but with you they would always come out incorrect.

"It was merely a prediction. Shouldn't you be glad it was incorrect?" he looked at you straight in the eyes. Clear distate in his tongue since he had entered the same darshan as you. The Haravatat, which he tried to avoid at all cost. He took this sore truth with a pinch of salt.

Not a day went by when you two wouldn't bicker. "Stop trying to read books while I'm talking alhaitham," you shouted. Unbeknownst to you, he had his noise-cancelling headphones on. You were fuming, and he decided not to listen to you during the most crucial time?! you unwillingly came to him since you couldn't rely on others' notes, and there was only Alhaitham who you could rely on.

Each passing day, you felt the wrinkles starting to appear on your forehead faster and you sighed more often. Today you felt 10 years of your life got subtracted because you and THE alhaitham were grouped for a project.

"There's no way the professor would commit such a crime..." you spoke devastated. He could say the same but decided to maintain his composure and only heaved a sigh with arms crossed.

The way you two bonded over the days you spent for the project was needless to say quite interesting. The time, place, and situations varied the variable of you two bickering stayed constant. "Did you chart out all the requirements, procedure, and observation?" he asked but you only scratched your neck, "ahh..about that.." he faceplamed loudly.

You two eventually learned more about the other's likes and dislikes. The usual disagreements between you two soon died down. This is the junction when you two started observing one another even intricately.

'guess he's not half bad..'

'seems like they've grown tolerable and kind these past few days..."

While these thoughts seemed foreign to both of you, those little things would soon form a small fragment of a treasured memory.

"Here you go." You threw the drink towards alhaitham and drank yours. "I don't remember telling you the flavour I liked of this drink?" "I'd say it was quite clear to me."

His words rather than being sharp like daggers were now more soothing and soft to hear. Your behaviour became more amicable towards him. Cooking him food sometimes, buying him the books he would tell you in the midst of a conversation. He did the same. The food you liked, the stationeries you'd eye and what not.

With time, the feelings in you for him blossomed. This was when you'd observe his admirable face from afar and when he was not looking. He even caught you looking at him a few times. He couldn't deny the feeling how his heart would rapidly thump inside his chest and the way his cheeks would redden whenever your hands brushed against one another's.

"haah...." he sighed loudly. His face in his hands. He truly needs to gather his thoughts right now. This attraction he felt towards you were not only growing more day by day but also growing quite unbearable as he has to hide his lovesick face under that stoic facade of his. "There should be some solution to this situation right?".

"how am I supposed to tell them that I lo—"

"huh? ah Alhaitham! I've been searching for you everywhere. Were you saying something?"

His eyes widened. "oh I was just.." don't panic alhaitham be calm like how you've always been. think this through.

"Oh it's nothing that important...let's go have dinner shall we?"

Many weeks passed by and alhaitham finally decided to confront you about his feelings. It was just like out of a cliché love story but it doesn't matter to him. For every problem he only wants the answer affirmative.

A soft breeze, gentle glow of the moonlight and quite streets. There was tranquil and a hint of romance in this dreamy landscape. He has been thinking about this for a while but, he couldn't find his happiness without you. Although both of you started your journey with hatred, it soon turned out to be one of love and care.

After a short silence, you spoke "nice view isn't it? to think that we reached one year of doing this project together...been eventful hasn't it?" His mind was all over the place, his heart thumping rapidly, and his palms cold. He's never been this anxious in his life.

"[name] I've been meaning to tell you—" before he could complete his sentence, you wrapped your hands around his large ones. "knew they were cold" you chuckled, "can't keep the hands of yours cold now can I?". There was this gentle look in yours eyes as if they knew everything. The moonlight accentuated your features even more. You look beautiful. Oh, you look godly.

Maybe it was adrenaline? Maybe it was him being serenaded by your breathtaking beauty that he involuntarily spoke what his heart felt.

"I love you"

Your eyes widened. A huge red blush dusted your cheeks on hearing the words from the mouth of a person that you pined for. You wrapped your arms around his neck and planted a tender kiss on his lips. You reciprocated his feelings with the same honey like sweetness.

"I love you too, Alhaitham"

Heyyy !! I'm in my missing shu hours now so can i request for any random oneshot of shu? You can write whatever you want hehe

To be with You, With Shu Yamino

Warning !

Fluff ; Hurt/Comfort ; Mentions of Distress ; Established Relationship

A/n !

I gotchu ! I hope you enjoy this anon (⁠｡⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧

This is based on his situation update in his community post ! I know it's been like, a week or so, but I can't help it (⁠ ⁠；⁠∀⁠；⁠) I just want to comfort Beloved Sorcerer.. (⁠｡⁠•́⁠︿⁠•̀⁠｡⁠)

➶◜◝➴

You noticed how he, your Beloved Sorcerer. Didn't act like he used to, no matter how hard he's pretending, you can see through him. You've known him for a long time to know when he's happy, sad, upset, anything by this point.

You noticed the way he, frowns more than he used to be. You can't miss the way his brows furrowed whenever he's frowning, it's rare to see him like this, you wanted to confront himabout it. But you didn't want to interfere with his personal space, despite both of you being in a relationship for a long time, both of you respected each other's privacy.

You can't help but to get worried over his health, you heard a news about a project that he had been working on are cancelled. You remember how devastated his face looked when he told you about it, you comforted him about it. You did, but it seems like the cancellation took a big impact on him. He then told you that his friends are going on a trip to Japan, he decided to come with them. He invited you to come with him. And you did, it was the best decision you made.

Meeting up with his friends, they're all so friendly, welcoming. You're glad that your Beloved Sorcerer is much more bright than before, you're happy he's having fun. And he is too that you're here with him. And with his friends, you, Shu, and the others made unforgettable experience and memories.

And after the trip, both of you went back home with a bright smile. The moment you stepped into your shared house, both of you put away the bags in your bedroom.

. . .

"Well, that was a fun trip! I am enjoying every bits of it, thank you for taking me with you Shu." You thanked him as you took off your jacket and hung it off, he look over at you and smiled. "I'm glad that you are," he said and approached you, your back was facing him. And at that exact moment you felt pair of arms snaked around your waist, his face buried at the crook of your neck. "I also enjoy every bits of the time we spent together.." he whispered, it made you shiver.

You gently pat his head, and ran a hand through his raven hair locks. "I am glad you do, you looked much brighter ever since the trip." You pointed out, making the raven froze for a moment. "Ah, you .. noticed huh, hahah.." he let out a breathy laugh, he then kissed your cheek. "..I'm sorry, I, must've made you worried.." he slowly turned your body around facing him.

He look down at your hands and gently rub his thumb along your knuckles, "I, was.. not doing well, I tried to be okay when I am not. But I am glad that the trip manage to make me feel better," he trailed off for a moment. "And much better that you're there with me.." he whispered shyly, you can see tint of red at the peak of his ears.

"I, love you, Shu.." You spat out and wrapped your arms around him, it took him a moment to wrapped his arms around you. But once he did, he held you so tight. Not tight enough to make you couldn't breathe, you then heard him whispering,

"I Love you too.."

New teachers at school!!!!

Chapter 10

Series Masterlist

A/N: Greetings,midgardians!So,my lovely mortals as many of you know, following the results of the poll JK's role is now officially switched to a student. Tom will be teaching History and English.....

Nyt!💚

Y/N : Stay, please!

You said in a low, meek voice. His heart clenched at the sight of you so sad and troubled.

Tom : I'm right here, sweetheart.

He said and sat back down on the bed and once he was one hundred percent sure that you're back in your slumber , he got up and laid on the couch in the room . Just in case you get another nightmare, though he sincerely hoped you don't .

He had to admit ,this nightmare got him wondering that what so bad happened to you because of which you get those awful nightmares. He was pretty sure about the fact that they're connected.

-----------------------

You woke up by your mobile alarm, only to find ,Tom, peacefully sleeping on the couch. Always a gentleman. You didn't exactly remember what happened last night....but he was there with you,that much you could recall. You felt a bit bashful, now that you think of it ....he was your professor afterall 🤷🏻.

There was a text from Y/B/F/N....

" Hey!! I'll be staying at Jungkook's ..."

"Hey! Amazing!Sorry for replying late, At Tom's ..... 😅". You replied

You got up , as quietly as you could, didn't want to wake your professor up from his deep, peaceful slumber . As you tip-toed your way towards the door, you decided to make some breakfast for you two . So, you went down to the kitchen and started cooking.

You decided to make a proper English Breakfast with a cup of Earl grey. Humming a tune to yourself , you started cooking.

*After 20 minutes*

You felt a pair of hands on your waist and if it wasn't for the fact that you could recognise him just by his scent you'd have beaten the man up . 😅 Just a reflex after that incident because of which you get the nightmares.

"Good morning, darling!" You heard Tom's angelic voice, it sounded deeper as he just woke up.

He placed a kiss on your neck which made you smile.

"Good morning, sweetheart! Breakfast is almost done!"

His heart skipped a beat at the name , you never call him that.

"Mmmm.....I can already smell the delicacy you're whipping up ! What's on the menu?" " Classic english breakfast with a cup of your favourite Earl Grey tea !" you replied. "That sounds wonderful!! Let me help you set the table!" he offered politely. "Sure, thanks!"

As he helped you set the table up, you plated the breakfast.

"Bon appétit !!"

A contented moan escaped his lips as he took the first bite and hell if you wouldn't kill to hear that sound again....

" Mmmm ....you are an amazing cook , darling!! It's the best breakfast I've ever had! Scrumptious!!" He praised you with a heart warming smile.

" I'm glad you like it, Tom !! But hey - you yourself are a great cook !" you said . "Not as good as you!" He protested "Oh, come on!" you chuckled , a blush rising up your cheeks.

"Holy Shit!!! WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE !!!!!" you said as you looked at the time. "Late to what, darling?" He said, totally clueless. "COLLEGE!" You replied. For some reason, he started laughing. " Why . Are. You. Laughing. Tom !!????" Somehow, this made him laugh even harder. " You didn't check the emails , did you?? " He said.

As you picked up the phone, you saw an email from your college informing that all the classes are cancelled for this week. "Ohh.......... sorry" you said , completely crimson from blushing. "It's perfectly fine, dear! Plus, do you know that you look cute when you're angry?"

This made you blush even harder, if that was possible......."Come on !!!" you said.."I'm merely stating what's true" said he . This made you chuckle, "Thank you, sweetheart!"

*After the breakfast*

"Y/N ??" He said while you were making a presentation on your laptop for a project ...so, you hummed in response. "Uhh.... If you don't mind me asking......" he trailed off, so you looked him in the eye and asked - " What is it that's bothering you, Tom ?" " It's just.....last night......as you were having that nightmare, you were asking me to tell someone to stay away....... who's that ?" he inquired, his voice full of concern.

You felt like your heart has stopped beating, your face went pale and you started sweating. "Uhh..........unmm...I-I .......i-it....." you tried to say something but failed as you felt a lump in your throat.

"Hey - Hey , it's fine, darling! You don't need to tell me if it troubles you ! " He got up and brought some water for you . "Here, have some water " ......

"I'm so sorry for the sudden outburst..... it's just - " you tried to explain, only to be interrupted by him "It's okay sweetheart, you don't need to explain!" He softly stated. "Wanna watch a movie?" he asked to distract you from that grief of the nightmare.

"Sure!" you said. Both of you then proceed towards the home theatre he had.

"Choose the genre, dear " he said. "Umm ....... what about a thriller or maybe even horror?" you suggested. "Up for a thrill , are we ?" said he .

You guys decided to go with "The Shining" a classic. He even made some popcorn and got a few cans of cold-drinks .

*Sometime into the movie*

You clutched onto Tom for dear life and hid your face against him as one of the scariest scenes came . The fact that you were watching it for the first time didn't help at all . "Do you want me to put something else?" He cooed slowly. "No, it's fine, thank you for asking!'

*After the movie*

"Good Lord , that was amazing, awfully scary.... but amazing!" You chimed in to which he chuckled, "I'm glad you like it, darling!" He said and kissed you on the cheeks which made you blush. You did not see that coming.

"Oh my ! It's 12:30pm !! I must go now!" you exclaimed. "Please stay for lunch..." said Tom. "Trust me, Tom ... I'd love to but I really have to go..." ofcourse, he did try to make you stay but you had to go .... " ........fine ! Let me drop you, at least!" "That would be a great help!" you said. " Oh come on, darling!"

*After the he dropped you off*

You were still sitting in his car , in front of your apartment...... which was apparently locked . Y/B/F/N must still be with JK.....

"Tom?" "Yes, darling.." "Would like to join me for lunch, please?" "I'd love to, darling, but as you know the weather conditions are rather.... harsh. I better get going before it gets worse." He said refering to the windy weather.. "But-" you were interrupted by his lips on yours ...."Some other day, darling, I promise" he said.

"Okay......." you said, not fully agreed. "Come on, like I said, it's a promise!" he said and chuckled. "Fine. I must go, then..." you replied. "What if you grab your essentials and stay at mine?" he suggested.

Chuckling, you said, "Tom, I..umm...you know, I....I can't...plus Y/B/F/N would be alone if I do so.... thanks though " you smiled ... "Okay......but text me if you need anything, no need to go out in this wheather" 'Okay, so it's official. He is the sweetest man in the universe.' you thought.

"You're so sweet !!!!!!!" you said, placing a kiss on his cheeks and you could swear you saw him blush. 'and the cutest too' you continued your previous thought.

"I'll get going, now . Bye, Tom" "Goodbye , darling!" You opened the gate of his car and stepped out, waving to him one last time before making your way towards the door of your apartment.

After a few minutes your best friend also returned.

"Y/N , I'm home !" she called out . "Oh, hey !! How did it go ?" you said. "AMAZING!!!!" She exclaimed. "Well, that's great. But I need the whole story" you said and chuckled. "Done!" said your best friend, chuckling.

The next few days went normally.

Time skip......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*MONDAY*

You were qurrently getting ready for the classes and the first one was English.

Outfit of the day👆🏻

You paired your dress with a black overcoat as it was cold outside.

"Let's go, shall we?" you asked your best friend. "Totally" she replied.

On your way, you guys grabbed a cup of coffee and headed towards your destination...

English Lecture

You sitting on one of the front benches with your best friend. You both were a bit early so no one else was there yet .....as you took a sip of your coffee, you heard the door open and what you saw made you choke on your drink.....

"Good morning, professor" said your best friend. "Good morning, Miss Carter. Um, Y/N you okay?"

You could almost sense a smirk on his face at your obvious reaction.

Okay!? The man literally changed his hair colour and then he's asking you if you're 'okay' ? As if he wasn't already enough he had to change his hair to Black didn't he? And the cherry on top was the outfit he chose.....a blue knitted sweater with a pair of black slacks.

( they could've been a bit less 'tight')

Holy Fuck.

" Y-yes I'm good, thanks!" you reply not so 'swiftly' . "Oh, that's better"....

"Mornin', d- Miss Y/L/N" he said after a slightly awkward stop....and you could tell that Y/B/F/N was trying her best not to laugh, roll her eyes or even grin.

"Good morning, professor!" you said blushing

You couldn't have been more grateful for the lack of audience .

As the students started entering and the class begun, you tired your best to not be distracted by the new change.

*Later in Tom's office*

"You seem to like this, huh?" he said refering to his new hair colour which was totally unexpected as he was the ever subtle one.

"I-I.....uhh...." you were more blushing than talking, earning a chuckle from him.

"Don't worry darling, I won't bite...... unless you ask me to, ofcourse" he said with a smirk and you could swear he winked.

Ok, so now it's official. He is acting a bit different today. You quite liked it, tbh.

You gulped. You just gulped.

"Anyways, my beloved what are your plans for Christmas?" he asked switching the topic like a light switch. "Uh....umm..well, Y/B/F/N is going out with her family so I guess I'll have to either go with her or spend it alone"

"You're not spending it with your family?" he asked "I never met my actual parents.....my aunt brought me up and she too passed a few years ago" you said, tears welling in your eyes but you quickly hide them. "...... I'm so sorry...... What if you stay with me?For Christmas?" he asked "Um...I beg your pardon"

"How about you spend Christmas with me?"

*********************

A/N : Hey mortals!! I know this chapter is a bit short.... sorry....I have a news for you guys,I won't be writing or posting anything for the next one month as I have a lot to work on...... again, I apologise.

regarding your update about rat (I love how you tag him) it was blind that rat cheated with some model or fan on tour, she was in her twenties or so and then a few days later first there were rumors of a divorce and then officially divorced. So maybe joe cheated more than once and who knows maybe even with this stormi (or whatever her name is). joe is horrible man, I hate him. And I still don't understand why some fans of joe think that rat won the case? After all, joe lost, as soon as joe and his team started saying that everything would be private, it became clear that rat would lose and Sophie would win, and when it became known that the case was moved to England, it became even more obvious that Sophie won, so everything is like this quietly and undisclosed, if their favorite rat won, he would definitely through his pocket TMZ, through some type of source, inform that these are the conditions and that type joe has a more favorable condition, the rat loves attention and doesn't care about children and their privacy, he would make it public. And since we don't know the details and everything happened quietly and privately, this is how Sophie and her team worked, and this clearly shows that Sophie won. I just can't understand how stupid his fans are. I'm sorry that I wrote so much, I just don't have anyone to talk to about it, and thoughts have accumulated. PS. Sophie looks very beautiful and very happy and glad that the children are around and that Perry supports her. And I'm also glad that she has two upcoming projects (I hope they won't be canceled), especially with Kit, I'm also waiting for Joan (for whom I have high hopes). I hope that everything will only get better and better in Sophie.

Hello anon!

Yeah, with all those rumors, it seems the rat is a serial cheater.

His fans believe he won because they are dumb and the press also mislead dumb people with the headlines, they only highlighted the fact that Sophie dropped her lawsuit against the rat, but they *pretend to be shocked* hide the part that she did that after the case was sent to a UK court, which was precisely what she requested in her lawsuit.

You can message me everytime you want!

I'm so very much glad as well, because Sophie is free from that nasty rat at last.

She's booked and busy, surrounded by her family, her closests friends and her baby girls. And also Perry is there being so sweet with her.

We can only hope the best for Sophie, always.

What about Donnie with a chubby s/o who is doubting themselves about their looks. To make it worse, they have noticed how much time Donnie has been spending with a female police office he has been helping out at the precinct and starts to think he doesn’t love her anymore? Sorry if it’s to much, love your writing by the way 💜💜

It's a date

A/n: Thanks so much for requesting! I hope you like it! I'm so glad you love my writing!

I couldn't have been more excited. Donnie had been so busy lately and I had felt like maybe he didn't really need me around anymore. But once he asked me out to a date I knew I was just being silly. Maybe I was letting my jealousy cloud my judgement. He had been spending a lot of time with a certain female officer, but he had a job to do and I know he doesn't have all the time in the world, but I'm glad he's still making time for me now.

I had wore my best outfit and glanced over my figure in the mirror. I knew that Donnie would think I looked beautiful. He told me anytime he saw me..but I don't feel very beautiful. There was always a cascade of thoughts in my mind whenever I took notice of my body. I know I'm not skinny and a big part of me wishes I was. Maybe I would feel prettier if I was skinner.

A ring from my phone broke through my thoughts and I turned to my bed. Picking it up from the covers and absentmindedly answering the call.

"Y/n.."

"Oh hey Donnie! I'm almost ready and I'll be over soon."

"About that..I kinda have to cancel. Something came up at the precinct and well I have to help."

"Oh... that's okay."

"Okay! Awesome. We can always reschedule."

"Yeah of course! I was thinking maybe we cou-"

A click cut off my sentence and I let out a huff. He had hung up on me. How could he? I mean I knew he was busy, but did he really have to go and hang up on me like that?

I wasn't gonna just not see him. He had to come back to the lair sometime. So I was gonna be there when he got back. I grabbed the last of my things and left my small apartment.

The walk was quick. My anger enough of a distraction to get me there quicker than I ever had before. Entering the lair I was greeted by Leo.

"Hey y/n! Donnie said you couldn't make it?"

"What? He canceled?" I stopped to stare at Leo and he looked to the lab.

"He's here."

"Seriously?" I walked to the lab and opened the door and took in the sight of Donnie working on a project with the same officer he's been seeing for the past week.

"Really? Got called into the precinct huh?" Donnie jumped at the sound of my voice and sat down the screwdriver in his hand.

"It's not what it looks like."

"It looks like you ditched me to hang out with her."

"okay.. it's sorta what it looks like.." I don't have time for this. I went to leave, but paused at the sound of the officer's voice.

"Let him explain.."

I turned around and glared at her and she shrunk in on herself.

"I know I ditched you..I'm sorry, but I needed a girl's help for this and she offered..here." Donnie motioned me over to him and I slowly walked over to where he was stood.

"It was supposed to be a surprise so it's not finished yet." I stood next to Donnie and he motioned to the table and I looked down at it.

Letting out a gasp at the sight before me. There on the table was an incomplete, but still beautiful, stained glass window of me and Donnie..

"Donnie this is beautiful.." A small well of tears began to gather in my eyes.

"You deserve the best.. I'm sorry I've been a jerk..I just didn't want to spoil it for you.."

"No! It's okay..I love it..I love you." I hugged him and he hugged me back. Pressing a soft kiss onto my head.

"You look beautiful by the way."

"Thanks." I laughed before I pulled away and turned to look at her.

"I'm sorry I'm gonna go." She smiled before she slowly left the room and I turned back to look up at Donnie.

"Sorry you have to find someone new to help you."

"Yeah.. she's already here." He handed me a small hammer and a big smile grew on my face.

"You want me to help?!"

"I should have asked you in the first place dove."

I let out a laugh before waiting for directions on what to do.

"Just break the glass like this." I watched his direction and the smile on my face grew impossibly wider.

This was going to be so much fun. I'm sorta glad I barged on in here. I looked back at Donnie and he paused and turned to me.

"I love you y/n..thanks for coming here anyways."

"I love you too Donnie..I'm glad I came too."

"Y'know this is sorta like a date.." I broke some of the glass with the hammer.

"It is a date dove." My cheeks grew hot and I shook my head at his words. How could even the smallest of things he did fluster me so much?

"Yeah, Yeah. Show me what to do next!"

He smiled at me before showing me the next step. Stepping behind me and wrapping his arms around me.

"What are you doing?" I laughed and I felt the soft vibration of his chest as he let out a small chuckle.

"Holding you..just keep working." He layed his head onto my shoulder and I smiled to myself. If he keeps this up I don't think were gonna get anything done..

"You are beautiful by the way.."

"You already said that.."

"You should hear it again and again until you believe it.." His words meant a lot to me and I leaned into his touch.

"You had that look in your eyes and I don't want you to feel less than you are...your perfect to me and I wouldn't change anything about you."

"I love you Donnie.."

"I guarantee you that I love you more."

Hi,

i discovered your gorgues Art at instagram once and i'm soo Happy that you shipping Sarah Connor/T-800 "Uncle Bob" from Terminator 2, since they are a quite rare pairing but an so right and wholesome one:) Thank you so much for your passion about them as well to draw constantly pictures with them!!

I also saw that you posted an piece of an actual Comic with them in your IG Story once and I'm extremley interested in that Project and Comic. How much do u have already done of the Comic and did exits an larger Script for this? My absolute dream would be an Comic whpo centered at an What if the T-800 Survived?! and Skynet was gone for good? So that we have some Cool and Sweet Terminator Family Fluff with them:)

Believe it or not, but it was actually a Cartoon Series in Development that did exactly this Scenario with John, Sarah, and the T-800 as Main Characters who would be this funny Family together. The Show was in early development as it got canceled.

I would love to see more of your Terminator Art and hope that i could inspire you to do more:)

Best Regards

Lukas

Oh gosh I meant to reply to this a while ago- my apologies! But thank you so much, no one ever said anything like this to me before jfnfkdkd /Pos. I'm planning to draw more of this pair, they're so underrated yet have plenty of potentials ❤️❤️ Know or not, Sarah actually got into a relationship with dieter von rossbach (aka the man skynet based off the T-800) In the S.M Stirling novel trilogy, which I recommend reading :-)

Thank you for the kind words, Lukas! Glad there's plenty of people that ships them

New Year's Kiss (4420 words) by fulfillingbineeds Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Misfits (TV 2009) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Simon Bellamy/Nathan Young Characters: Simon Bellamy, Nathan Young Additional Tags: Dialogue Heavy, Kissing, Bonding, New Year's Eve, New Year's Kiss, Fluff, Nathan Young Being Nathan Young, Angst

Summary: Nathan and Simon spend New Year's Eve together on the community center roof and have some personal conversations.

Notes: This piece was inspired by a tweet from E4's official Nathan's twitter.

Simon felt his whole body shiver as the cold wind blew across him. He put his hood on, hoping it would cancel out some of the wind.

"God, I'm freezing my balls off here! This is awful! Why'd you suggest we go to the roof, Barry?" Nathan breathed out, his words coming out with a chattering of teeth.

Simon glared at Nathan.

"It wasn't my idea. It was yours." He huffed, narrowing his eyes at the shivering Irishman.

"Pfft. Tomato, Potatoe." Nathan quickly brushed Simon off. "Anyways, how long til midnight? I'd check myself, but I think my fingers would freeze off." Nathan slightly laughed during his last sentence. His hands were hidden under his coat, hugging himself and rubbing his arms up and down to create friction.

Simon went to his pocket to retrieve his phone. He was glad he thought ahead of time to bring gloves with him.

He glanced down at his phone screen, which read '11:10 pm December 31st, 2009.'

"Only forty more minutes til midnight," Simon said while putting his phone back away.

"Christ." Nathan huffed. He removed his left hand from under his coat and grabbed the beer sitting by his feet. His hand was shaking from the cold, which caused the can to shake aggressively as he brought it closer to his mouth.

"I thought you said your fingers would freeze off if you did anything," Simon smirked at him.

"Yeah, I did, but it would be worth it for a sip of this magnificence stolen beer," Nathan smirked back, lifting up the can in a cheering motion before bringing it to his lips. He shivered as the cold metal and liquid made contact with his mouth. "Jesus! It's freezing." Nathan whined, quickly chugging a few more gulps before placing the can back on the ground.

Simon also went to take a sip of his own beer. He could feel the coldness of the can through his glove and grimaced about what he was about to experience. He liked cold beer. Ice cold was the best, but not so much when it was below five on the community center roof with Nathan.

"Ugh, that's awful." Simon frowned as he placed his beer back onto the ground. He could hear Nathan’s stifled laughter as he did so.

"We should've gone to a bar or something. This is just depressing." Nathan used his freed hand to motion at both Simon and himself and everything around before it found its way back under his coat.

"A bar would probably be too full by now anyways," Simon responded.

"Yeah, Yeah." Nathan scoffed. "Well, at least I'm doing some good for the community tonight, even if it means I might freeze to death ‘cause of it."

"What?" Simon asked, looking confused. He started to wonder if the cold was affecting Nathan's brain.

"I'm helping out a lonely virgin with having his first New Year's with someone other than his hand. If it wasn't for me, you'd be stuck in your room playing perverted porn games all night long." Nathan impishly grinned while miming wanking himself.

"I don't play porn games. I'm not a pervert." Simon frowned.

"But if it wasn't for me, you'd still be alone in your room tonight, right?" Nathan narrowed his eyes.

Simon opened his mouth to respond but swiftly shut it because Nathan was right. He would have spent another New Year’s alone if he hadn't been invited out tonight.

Nathan huffed a laugh before moving closer to Simon and swung his arm across his shoulder. He began to rub Simon's arm in a comforting motion.

"I'm glad I can brighten up your sad little life once again," Nathan smirked and booped Simon on the nose, causing him to shiver and squirm away.

"My life isn't sad, and you're not the first person I've spent New Year's with." Simon glared, brows furrowed.

"You know family doesn't count." Nathan rebutted.

"I know, and that's not what I meant."

"So are you saying you had a friend? Aww." Nathan cooed. "So why aren't you hanging out with them instead?"

"We had a falling out."

"Try to burn their house down?" Nathan chuckled, glancing over at Simon, whose eyes had widened, and he started to pat his hair down like he typically did whenever he was nervous.

"Oh my god, you tried to burn their house down. Christ, you little pyromaniac!" Nathan playfully swatted Simon's arm.

"I'm not a pyromaniac… It was just a stupid drunken mistake." Simon looked down at his feet, his lips slightly pouting.

PRO WRESTLING RATINGS 2023 (5 of 6)

20 professional wrestling matches out of 182 watched throughout September & October were rated 4 stars and higher.

AEW, surprise surprise, had the most top-rated matches with 11.

My favourite match of this block; Bryan Danielson vs Zack Sabre Jr. from AEW WrestleDream on October 1st. I rated it 4.75 out of 5. It was beautiful.

Here are 3 matches that I suggest you goddamn watch:

Chad Gable vs GUNTHER (Monday Night RAW, September 4th) I'm not a big WWE fan these days, but every once in a while they manage to pull their best wrestlers (most often GUNTHER than not) into having an amazing contest with major stakes that feel so very fun to watch. A primetime stage in Chad Gable' career began when he first challenged GUNTH and this rematch had his reputation shoot like a rocket. I hope they do it a third time.

Billie Starkz vs Marina Shafir (REVOLVER Women's Grand Prix, October 8th) Marina's time in AEW has not shown her at her best. If you've yet to see her at a time where she has the chance to act as a methodical and calculating powerhouse of sheer grappling knowhow, then you should watch this match where she manages to help the already impressive Billie Starkz tell a super compelling David vs Goliath story.

Fuminori Abe vs Takuya Nomura (Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura Produce Kakuto Tanteidan ~ Bokura Wa Kakuto Tanteidan, October 12th) Although it got a 4.5 and not a 4.75 (rewatch coming soon, that may change) this has gotta be the most engaging and thrilling and captivating match of 2023. Violent, yet positive in its way of harm. Both Abe and Nomura are made men to men, they are both such amazing wrestlers. Plus, they also happen to be the most consistently good tag team in the world today so more power to them!!

Wrestler Of The Block has been cancelled because I'd rather focus on my Wrestler Of The Year list for the final post.

The updated total of matches watched since the last post is....

950

Which means that I am definitely going to hit my goal this time. As I said , for 2022 I tried to hit the big 1K, but only got to about 800. After finishing with this year, I will continue to watch a lot of pro wrestling - I do LOVE it after all - but I don't think I'll be keeping up with current-day stuff in the same way as I have for the last 2 years.

Well, these past two months have been very slow-moving for me, since I've had to move house and took a week away from watching any wrestling to focus on that. I am sorta glad that I did take time away, because I did not realise just how monotonous this whole project had begun to feel until I got back into the swing of things.

Regardless, this is still very fun for me. I love this shit.

anyway here's a quick run down of some things you might have seen actor bal in! aside from some bit parts in a number of long-running tv shows and movies & etc, these are some of his bigger projects.

The River Dragon (2006, film) - He's thirteen/fourteen in this movie and I do in fact need you to bully him about him being a baby. Balfour plays Halfdan, a young boy from the Danelaw who befriends a dragon in the River Ouse. There was a period of time where they played this yearly in that weird between-Christmas-and-end-of-year period, and it's based on a beloved children's book.

Other Lives (2007-9, tv) - A recurring role in this drama, Balfour played Jamie Wilson, the troubled son of one of the main characters. His character got killed off after three years of variously stupid plots because he was the designated Cautionary Tale Character and, honestly, he was glad to see the back of this one. It was not good. But he did get to go to Newcastle to film it, and he enjoyed that.

The Veil of Time (2012, film) - Balfour played the supporting role of Gregory, a young man from 18th century Derbyshire who was killed in mysterious circumstances. His story becomes the obsession of the main character of the film, Eva, while she's visiting the stately home in which he was killed. He got some recognition for this one on the back of a very solid performance.

The Prizefighter (2013, tv) - This is about the time when he was like "oh, I'm a period drama guy, I do period dramas". Set in the 1920s, he plays Adam Flynn, the brother of main character Amelia, who is in love with the titular prizefighter. He's a horrible, awful dude in this one and the feedback he receives the most is "wow, I was so glad when you died!" It wasn't great but it did get multiple seasons after he was written out, so whatever.

The Dead Water (2015, tv) - Balfour plays Ned Braithwaite in this tense murder mystery about a late-nineteenth century merchant ship crew. Notable for: how cosy he looks in the costumes, his curls, one particularly intense interrogation scene and the fact that the final scene of the first season leaves his character's fate entirely ambiguous. Is he dead? Does he get back home? Who knows, this show got cancelled after one season because nobody watched it and now you're going to stumble across it years later and be desperate to know what was meant to happen in season two.

Run Wild (2019, film) - His comeback project! Balfour plays Scott Miller, a Mancunian country musician in a band trying to hold itself together while the relationship at its centre falls apart. He was required to sing and play music for this film, which led to him learning how to play both the harmonica and banjo. It's his finest film yet, and he was praised for a strong start to his return to what had previously been a very, very mixed career. There was also a lot of speculation around the bts of this film as to whether he had a fling with Alfie Hoult, who was one of the duo of musicians who worked on the music, on social media. I personally would not blame you for falling in love with him a little bit in this movie.

The Highwayman (2020, film) - Uh oh, they've realised he can sing! In this R.obin H.ood retelling, set in the 18th century, Balfour plays A.lan-a-Dale and, boy, they sure do make him sing. He's playing someone from Lancashire and his accent has been perfected, thank you. This film isn't his best but was pretty decent. It's not the worst adaptation out there. The bar is low, but a solid character-first plot can get you a long way.

The G.reat B.ritish B.ake Off (2020, tv) - A charity episode that will go down in history. Balfour burned everything he tried to make except for some brownies, broke his oven, burned his hand and spent half of his time getting bleeped for swearing. There is more than one supercut of his disaster episode online. He spent most of it with his head in his hands going "why did I do this, why did any of you let me do this" but, don't worry, it was for the bit.

Wild Hunt (2021, film) - Balfour plays William, a 15th century farmer from Yorkshire who is haunted by spectral hounds. Full-on folk horror, came out in October and got a whole lot of attention, least of all for the fact that he's in every single shot and is pretty much carrying the whole thing himself. He's spoken a lot about how emotionally exhausting it was to film, but he's very proud of it. It's definitely not a film for the squeamish.

Peaked (2022, tv) - A limited series romcom. Balfour plays Joe, a handsome baker who falls for a thief, Marcus, who just pulled off the heist of the century and has decided to lay low in the Peak District until it all blows over. It's modern, for once, and a role where he actually just gets to be goofy and cute. You probably heard about it on social media because it's gay and he takes his shirt off a lot.

Herald (2023-, tv) - A drama/thriller about an investigative journalist, Alyssa Roydon, who uncovers a political scandal. Balfour plays Lucas Niven, a rival journalist with whom Roydon develops a toxic romantic relationship. Season one was highly regarded and one of the most watched programmes on television that year. Season two is set to begin in mid-2024 and is more organised crime-oriented.

Hare Spell (2024, film) - A folk horror/thriller about an accusation of witchcraft that tears an isolated village apart in 17th century Scotland. Balfour plays Thomas Kerr, the husband of Janet, the accused woman. It releases in early 2024 and reviews very well. He is very much back to breaking hearts and performing at his best in this one.

I just read your recent asks about warrior nun and what you said about showrunners only caring for viewers so long as they make money from it just Hit™. Still, I just wanted to let you know that Simon Barry, the showrunner for Warrior Nun, is actually a huge supporter of the sapphic ship that everyone keeps recommending! He's the reason why they're gay! Netflix did not want to make avatrice canon but Simon and the cast got the kiss in the last season completely by secret. He even introduced a specific male character as a potential love interest for Ava (one of the characters of Avatrice) specifically to throw Netflix off his scent. It's half the reason why the show was cancelled lmao

Ok and I am genuinely glad for you guys, and I hope I'm wrong! But also I know how Hollywood is and how media execs are, and if these things are gonna be actual movies, the likelihood is that the queer will be cut. Or made so minuscule in the actual project that it's token queer rep at best.

I'm sure the showrunner is a great guy and I'm sure he has a lot of great intentions, and again I hope I am wrong, but I've seen this happen before with queer plots (e.g. Fried Green Tomatoes was a lot gayer in the book) and I would not be shocked if it happens with this. I mean tbh idk if I even believe that 'tricked' story because it's not like he just uploaded the season of WN himself without approval, people sign off on these things. Writers, directors, producers, camera people who do the shots, makeup, set design, etc - all these people have to be paid for their work which means them being there to shoot has to be approved. They have to block shots and do the lighting and then edit it and set music to it and so on and so on. Like... there's zero percent chance that it wasn't greenlit by Netflix I'm sorry but that's just not how these things work. The people cutting the checks make the final calls, and I'm genuinely happy for you guys that you got it! But unfortunately if given any kind of chance, they will de-gayify everything for big screen because they think it's more marketable. That's all I'm saying. So this was never me hating on him or the show or anything because I hope they don't, but I'm just saying if they do I won't be surpised.

"you three really do work well together"

i miss that. i miss having a team that had my back. this weekend was spent with my boys. we did a very good thing. and i was able to really see j*** in a new light as a guy who spent 6 hours of his day, to help a sweet lady who was willing to ask.

the road to get there wasn't perfect, but the results sure were. i can only hope, if i were in m***'s shoes, i'd be humble enough to ask and accept the help of those who care. i'm so happy for her and grateful to have been a part of it.

today, i didn't let the depression and anxiety tie me to bed. i took advantage of this sunday, even if it was a slow start. groceries, and reorganizing. rearranging furniture and letting go of my dying plants. finding solutions to the ghosts of dead diy projects with d***** by my side. my best friend. joking with me and working together to finally make the living room make sense. reassuring me and adding fixes to bring so much beauty into our home. i am so thankful.

d** sparked my joy, and intensified my drive like i can always count on him to do. he did not push me to move past my hurt of cancelled plans, he instead helped me grasp the control i so needed. what could have been triggering became motivating and suddenly the projects ive been pushing to tomorrow became done today. so incredibly glad to be doing life with him, with them. if m******** can't be proud of me, I can be happy with the life ive made on my own.

I'm starting to wonder why gmmtv even greenlit Not Me in the first place. Don't get me wrong, I am SO glad they did because it's become one of my fav Thai BLs but it seems to me like they're trying their best to make the world NOT talk about it (the lack of promotion for the show compared to other BLs, the lack of offgun stuff compared to their previous work together, etc.). Like, if gmmtv is so afraid of how they'd look in front of... idk who (the government? the people in the shadows running Thailand??), then why even make Not Me in the first place? Wouldn't it have been easier for them to just turn down the project? Genuinely curious

couldn't agree more!!! like, I'm so happy this show came to be, even though it deserved approximately 1000000000000 more than what what it got. but also, gmmtv is so paradoxical about it?? like either you lean full onto the political stuff, or you don't. on the one hand I understand that when the show became what it was (it’s only in jan 2021 when the screenwriters started working on the script that the show became political), it had already been announced at gmmtv 2021 so they couldn't cancel the show entirely, but they still could've pushed for it to not be about politics & more about petty critical stuff. though I'm sure with p'nuchie's reputation & power, they preferred to let her do her thing than piss her off (while still cutting her budget, as I said PARADOXICAL.) but on the other hand, like it SUCKS that they've had to bow down to unknown (likely thai political) forces, bc now it's not even impeding the show's success, but offgun as well. so in a way, they couldn't have turned down the project bc it was already announced before it became political, but I don't understand this mindset of leaning into things only halfway. though they did the same for a gift to the people you hate that directly showed the prime minister as corrupt (I have a video on it here), which they fully produced, yet didn't advertize at all despite it being adapted from a very well-known thai comic. so they're willing to produce political shows, but also willingly sabotage them. I love it here <3
