Writer Asks
Tagged by @yallemagne (thank you<3) ages and ages ago... Inspired to answer because I just published a fic and feel good about it hjejejfjj
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
Undisclosed amount xD I've put a bunch on anon, especially from fandoms I'm not active in anymore (lbr, mostly Endeavour). Publically, it's 26 rn.
2. What's your total ao3 word count?
212040!
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Elisabeth, hopefully in the future Tanz der Vampire (I've been thinking about it for like five years), in the past Endeavour (TV).
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
They're all Endeavour because those are older and in a (slightly) bigger fandom... Unfortunately I think they're not the best ones I've written, a lot of them were when I was 18 (no offense to 18 year olds) and had just started writing fanfic ajajjjd. Which is why the top 5 are on anon except for one LOL. I really do think kudos doesn't tend to accumulate "correctly" xD People like familiar tropes and time of posting also affects it, there are many fics of mine I consider "underrated"
My top five kudosed Elisabeth fics are: black as the earth (shortened title), Flights of Angels (todolf longfic), Dominion, Midnight Man & Starwalk. tbh deserved...
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
Yes, I try to respond to every single one of them so people will hopefully comment in the future too, especially if they're kind, funny or thought-provoking!!! However, I delete them if I don't like them or they're weird, boundary-crossing or TMI ahdjfjjf (has happened a handful of times - the joys of writing explicit stuff lol. PSA: do not tell fic authors about your sexual activities in the comments, i do not consent...)
6. What's the fic you wrote that has the angstiest ending?
I often do bittersweet, or "sweet but also has Implications" >:] Oh and I guess there's a lot of them where Rudolf dies at the end... I think the actual angstiest might be No Forevers (Endeavour fic) even though nobody dies in that one. Though I ruined it by writing a sequel to it, after the showrunner wrote one of the characters back into the show after like 10 years xD In my defense, this wasn't my idea!!!
7. What's the fic you wrote that has the happiest ending?
Beams of Morning (Endeavour). I retconned one of my own DIY bittersweet endings whoops... 🤣🤣😭 It's sappy, even, but maybe that's allowed. For elisabeth it's Flights of Angels because the happiest happy endings are ones that feel deserved.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
No - I've gotten hate for my headcanons/meta and my video essays though (never to my face ;D) which can be fic adjacent. I guess it's because there's a better tagging system with fic, like, people won't be exposed to stuff they don't want to see as readily as with tumblr and youtube etc. And people also know how to leave other ppl alone!! Ajdjjfjf
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Yes. The unpleasantly sexy kind 👀
10. Do you write crossovers?
Noooo, I don't really read them either. The kinds of crossovers I like are the ones that are crossovers "in name only"; ie. setting or tropes lifted from one work, characters/cast from another. Wildly incongruent characters showing up in each other's universes and interacting etc doesn't fit into my suspension of disbelief most of the time 😭
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Luckily no!
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No, but I once helped someone translate theirs into English, which was cool. Oh, and recently I've been asked for permission to translate at least one of my fics - I hope it happens because it's always an honor!! >:]
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I've collaborated on series, but I haven't co-written stuff on a deeper level. I think I'm too much of a control freak to get into it ajsdjjf, I can do stuff inspired by other people and am happy if my stuff inspires other people, but if I need to agree on plot/characterisation with someone consistently I don't think it'd work out, since no two people have identical takes and preferences with stories and characters.
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
For around 2.5 years it's been todolf, it captures a lot of stuff I've liked in fiction for a longer time already >:D I can't really say whether it will be the Ship of a Lifetime for me... I mean it did make me move countries (as one reason of a few) but if someone asked me in the summer of 2016 I would've probably said [checks ao3 reading history] um. h*milton x j*fferson... so like. IT CHANGES A LOT OK ajajsjdj
15. What's a wip you want to finish, but don't think you ever will?
I don't want to doom any of my current wips to the graveyard!!!!!! I am having worries about the fate of my todolf swan lake modern ballet au fic though. The original draft outline is complete but it doesn't really fit my character interpretations for tod or rudolf anymore, it's from january 2022... Idk maybe I can one day rework it somehow with different characterisations ajsjdjf but yeah mostly it's interesting concepts haphazardly tied together but no coherent plot
16. What are your writing strengths?
Imagination/coming up with ideas, metaphors, descriptions (usually), grammar and syntax, writing crown prince rudolf really well (XDD), rhythm/pacing (usually), the way it Sounds (my brain sometimes fixates on phonetics randomly because after all, English is not my first language, and sometimes there'll be like, a really pleasing/satisfying combination of sounds in smth I think to write and I think I'm good at picking up on that, like how it flows and sounds. Idk if those preferences are universal though or if it's just me writing what I think sounds pleasing)
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Writing varied characters, writing varied speech patterns/"character voice" also in narration, vocabulary.... I am but a humble English as a second technically third language speaker,,,, (i'm doing an english language grad school degree rn lol so i think i'm no worse than natives, not humble abt this actually, but i'm on the level of like. a not so well-read native speaker. Because most actual fiction literature I've read in my life has been in Finnish, in English I've just read academic literature, fanfic and like 10 books max! I need to read more and become a better writer ahhdhhdhf)
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
No... Dialogue is a big no from me, it often feels cringe ngl ajsjdjdj. My personal philosophy is "if you need a translator's note for people to understand what's going on, don't put it in" 😅 A lot of the time different languages are also used in fic in nonsensical ways where it will look ok to a lot of people but bother the hell out of native speakers/ppl who speak the language. This is smth that can technically be done well but it's usually not aksldlldd. I think pet names and individual words can be fine but it needs to be done in moderation... I also obsess a lot over research, like, the nuances of the word need to actually mean what the author thinks it means :'D
19. First fandom you wrote for?
First published for Endeavour, first wrote for H*rry P*tter... (never-to-be-published fan comics and little stories as a young kid, like 8 years old).
20. Favorite fic you've written?
Right now it's vers l'onde souterraine... ;) I think I'm constantly improving as a writer and hopefully every fic will be better than the last!!

ROSE I AM FREAKING OUT HAVE YOU SEEN THE PREQUEL STUFF???? WHAT IS GOING ON, my god... I was literally about to go to sleep, decided to check Tumblr one last time and see this.... what WHAT!! WHATTTT!!!!!! I don't even know if this is good bad or what but just JENSEN IS PRODUCING A SUPERNATURAL PREQUEL AND DEAN'S GONNA BE THE NARRATOR OR Sth LIKE???? -🐸
YEAH i am normal about this <3 (jk i am also freaking out) welcome to: people screaming to me in my inbox about prequelgate ft. j/2 fallout theory. let's goooo!
Another copypasta and suddenly chaos machine is full on gay I love this prophecy
you know whats funny i just checked the j/2 tag and i feel like for the first time in a long time they are starting to realise that maybe THEY should be the ones who are "gutted" *sips tea*
ROSE HOLY SHIT ROOOOOOOOSE ITS HAPPENING HOLY SHIIIIIT
YEAH
Nevermind just read prequel and well good luck I guess but just you know kind of bleh who wants to watch John Winchester well let’s have hope anyways
i know a lot of people are bummed out but i am kind of very excited actually?? i trust robbie and even though yeah j*hn winchester turned into a nasty abusive bastard, it can be interesting to explore how it all started (imo). it's just the first of many stories they can tell.
I can only accept this circus if it’s Dean telling the stories to his and Cas’ kids and then we have a revival to show that the whole finale was in fact the end Chuck wanted there Jensen I fixed it
i would not say no to this
heyloo bee anon here
um- wtf is happening?
jackles prequel series?? why? i want to be excited about this but sheesh im scared
because supernatural is never dead <3
okay, but, jensen... john winchester ≠ jdm, you don’t have to go /that/ hard for him 🙃
true true... though i am waiting for jdm to comment on this, please i need it
WAIT A SECOND J2 FALLOUT THEORY TRUE??
LMAO HELL YEAH BESTIE
Rose you really picked the worst time to sleep for real
bestie it was literally 4 in the morning, what do you expect from me sdfjsfhsf
I can’t literally can’t we were all right LMAO j2 fallout theory is real and cockles (Misha supporting Jensen) is [gunshots] I’m just laughing cause what the hell is this timeline we’re living LMAOOOOOOOOOO
we would always end up here <3
Do we have the copypaste anons to thank for JP basically confirming the J2 fallout? lol 🦚
yes, everybody say 'thanks annoying idiots!'
ROSE, WAKE UP, COME HERE,
THERE'S A LOT GOING ON FFS
YEAH I KNOW BUT I NEEDED SLEEP
Anticipating that there's going to be a lot of yelling about the prequel on here: I am cackling, but also, I mean, the first time Dean got a look into his parent's past, Cas was the catalyst: literally entered Dean's mind and catapulted him to the 70s. So idk, it's not completely unreasonable to expect some Cas cameos, maybe setting up a parallel timeline since Dean is narrating. What I'm saying is, this is Jackles, he's getting JDM and Misha in on this lmao -Honeymoon Anon
you were right lmfaooo also i fully agree. misha's tweet further cemented that thought for me. he knew about this prequel and i dont think he is cas-baiting us, i think he'll be involved. i'd also be obsessed to see jensen and jdm act together again (though idk who jdm could play seeing as it's a prequel and he is way too old to play young j*hn)
longlivethetribbles heeft gevraagd:
Heyyyyyy bestie, are you SEEING the absolute madness going on right now holy shit
well a little late but I SURE AM BESTIE
bestie wake up pls s16 finale just dropped.
- 🍯
and WHAT a great one it was
I love coming home from work to see all of the chaos unfolding on Tumblr and Twitter. I'm absolutely buzzing right now. I'll probably still be here by the time you wake up and check tumblr 😂 - 🐢
lmaooo and were you still awake?? did you see my freak out??
Oooh bestie wake the fuck up, I know you’re gonna be excited for this one jsnsjsj
god i had SUCH a morning like. it's 12:00 now and all i did since i woke up is check tumblr rip
short summary: jen and dee gain the rights, they post on ig/twitter about a prequel ft john and mary that no one asked for, the fandom loses its everloving shit as usual, they trend on twitter thanks to the beloved twt intern who missed us, misha qt’s jen about cas possibly benefiting from being in the prequel, then j*red qt’s jensen abt how his feelings got hurt by him not being told about a prequel his character as no involvement in & he initially throws a tantrum, and the rest is history - 🦋 anon (ps: i hope this helps a little, i’ve been scattered brained trying to keep up with it all night lmao so pls let me know if i missed anything, bug crew !!)
thank you so much darling i figured it out eventually but this is a helpful summary!!!
I hope you enjoyed waking up to all of this XD -🐢
i sure did!!! also that answers my question about you being awake lmao
I WILL NEVER EVER EVER FORGIVE MYSELF FOR SLEEPING THROUGH ALL OF THIS DRAMA AND NOT EXPERIENCING IT IN PERSON I DIDN'T NEED THIS SLEEP - tea anon
well the party was still going strong this morning so im not TOO "gutted" see what i did there lmaooo
Now that you are caught up with the news... So idk if you remember this but...didn't jarpad tell jackles he was up for a reboot in an online panel? And jackles answered that this was news to him??
-🍯
yeah i think you are right but he was clearly joking and didnt expect jackles to actually be working on something already
J2 anon spare more of those anons let's finish this - tea anon
please, we're having a ball in this bitch
I saw a post on tumblr where someone said now that Kripke gave J&D the rights, maybe they’re starting with a prequel just to end on a reboot in years time and honestly ? I wanna believe that so badly. This is tinhatty but what if this is all calculated in a way that makes it so that Jensen is slowly starting to fix everything that was wrong with spn - now that he has the rights and he’s slowly making spn his own story ?! I mean he did say in his ig post he wants to ‘fill in the rest’ - and maybe Mary and John’s story is only the beginning of spn related content from J&D to come ??? Maybe he wants to give spn the justice it deserves ?? Thoughts ??
i dont think this is tinhatty at all i think this is very possible and not that much of a reach. i could see this happening yeah for sure
want to hear something funny. I found out I had a ruptured blood vessel in my eye because I was sending my friend a video freaking out when the prequel news dropped and I noticed the corner of my eye was red af. and when I got back online jared had tweeted.
DJFHSJD ANON THE CHAOS OF IT ALL, HELP, are you okay? <3
rose.. bestie... how are you feeling about The News? nsfshsf being european is a curse </3 🐞
i feel GREAT im living for it i feel on top of the world tbh (and yeah it really is dsjfhs)
What am I waking up to I can't WHAT I rested my eyes for like 5 minutes help *hits reblog button* - anon anon
yep yep essentially djfhs
“Jensen and Misha are Co workers who barley talk”
I can’t be sure of course but I’m fairly certain that this is the copypasta that brought the j/2 fallout theory back to life. Who’s apparently ‘barely talking’ now? skansjsjsj. It’s almost prophetic, these j/2 anons have superpowers I’m telling ya.
-poker face anon
next time we get one of them we should be thanking them lmaooo
ok, but are we gonna talk about the "When Daneel and I formed Chaos Machine Productions, we knew that the first story we wanted to tell was the story of John and Mary Winchester [...]"-quote because the way this is phrased implies they formed CHAOS MACHINE Productions with the intent of telling this story (first), i haven't been in this dumpster long enough but the name just tickles me in that Misha way, isn't it so sus??? am i missing something???? i mean with this announcement they SURE lived up to that name... 🧩-anon
you are absolutely right, chaos machine SCREAMS misha and we are all here for it!!
hey hey hey. joining the clownverse, there's no way THEE cas girl danneel doesn't know just how much the fandom loves misha and cas. so 2 + 2 = misha in the spn prequel!
AGREED
So I think I finally managed to catch up on wtf happened while I was asleep and my brain melted. What a shit show to wake up to.
Anyway thoughts.
I don't hate the idea of a Mary&John sequel. I think it has the potential to be good (It has the potential to be really bad too, so I'm kind scared).
🕯️🕯️🕯️ manifesting Mary being badass and John being kinda useless🕯️🕯️🕯️
As for the Jensen and J*red thing.
I can see Jensen not telling J*red even if they are still friends, because J*red is kinda good at accidentally telling Secrets. He could have told him right before he announced it so, so that J*red didn't have to find out from twitter. He was on the show for 15 years, he is bound to get asked about it. The public twitter meltdown was really unprofessional so. Like you have Jensen's number J*red. You could have sorted that out in private like a normal person, but instead you choose to act like a toddler throwing a tantrum.
Is it weird that I'm actually going to be kinda that for them if the actually had a falling out, even tho I don't like J*red all that much. They seemed to be really important to each other and while I thought before that the might have triefted apart a bit, I didn't think that the where actively fighting.
- 🐌 anon
the thing is, the polite/normal thing for jensen to do was text him before announcing it on twitter. it's weird he didn't, and that makes me believe that maybe yeah they did have a falling out. especially with the way j*red responded to it on twitter. if he had no other reason to be this upset (no prior beef or falling out) you'd think that he wouldn't be responding like this. on the other hand, the man is a mysterie to me so who the hell knows. i'm not gonna mourn about it if they did/do grow apart because j*red is just.... awful imo.

Madness Combat: Just Bros Being Dudes
AO3 Link:
(Hhh This Took A Long Ass While Lmao)
--------------------------------------
Fandom: Madness Combat
Characters: Deimos, Sanford, Hank (Briefly), Jebus (Briefly), Tricky (Briefly)
Platonic Or Romantic?: Romantic Sanmos
Summary: Just A Normal Saturday In Nevada For The Boyfriends, Sanford And Deimos. They Also Share Their First Kiss With The Help Of Hank And Tricky Thanks To A Text Message. Also Deimos Makes A Lot Of Jokes, If You Know Them Then Congrats. :) If Not, That's Ok.
--------------------------------------
The Sound Of The Alarm Clock Went Off At 8:00 AM, Causing Deimos To Wake Up From His Slumber. He Sat Up From The Sleeping Position He Was In And Yawned While Stretching Before Hitting The Snooze Button And Rubbing His Eyes. Looking Over To His Side, He Noticed Sanford Was Absent From His Side Of The Bed. It Was Cold, So He Had Been Probably Gone For A While Now. It Was Done Nicely Compared To The Smaller Man's Side Of The Bed, Which Was Very Messy.
Deimos Knew San Liked To Wake Up An Hour Or Two Earlier Than Him All The Time. He Did That Even If They Weren’t Being Bothered By The L33t / A.A.H.W (Agency Against Hank Wimbleton) Groups Anymore. Deimos Slipped On The Closest Pair Of Slippers He Had By The Bed And Headed Toward The Kitchen. There He Heard Pans Being Set Down On The Stove Or In The Sink To Be Washed Later And Bacon Sizzling In A Pan.
Sanford Was At The Stove Making Breakfast While Whistling One Of Their Favorite Songs. That Favorite Song Happened To Be Poker Face By Lady Gaga, Deimos Would Always Sing And Dance Happily To It While Sanford Watched And Laughed During Their Breaks In Between Missions. Deimos Instantly Smiled At The Sight Of His Boyfriend Being In A Good Mood On A Morning. Everyone Knew Sanford Wasn't Much Of A Morning Person, He Was Only Cheerful When He Knew He Was Going To Have A Good Day.
It Always Was Fun Going On Missions Together And Then Getting To Relax With Each Other Afterwards. They Loved To Chat And Goof Off With Each Other All The Time. The Smaller Man Quietly Shuffled Into The Kitchen Being Careful Not To Distract The Man Cooking And Sat Down In A Chair. Ford Smiled And Flipped The Pancakes In The Pan. San Turned Around To See His Beloved Boyfriend Sitting At The Table.
Sanford, Smug: “Enjoying The View, Dee?’
Deimos, Jumping In Surprise And Hiding His Face In Embarrassment: “U-Uh What? Yeah, I Like Roses. I Mean What-”
Sanford, Giggling A Bit: “What? Anyway, How Many Pancakes Do You Want?”
Deimos: “Ooo, Can I Have 4?”
Sanford Nods And Turns Around, Walking Back To The Stove To Continue Their Breakfast. Deimos Watched His Boyfriend With Love In His Eyes. Dee Loved Watching His Boyfriend Do Anything; He Even Has A Whole Photo Album Full Of...Just Sanford In Battle Poses, Laying Down, Sitting, Ect..
Sanford Knew About Deimos’s Pictures. He Didn’t Really Mind, It Was Just When They Got Posted Online And Girls Were Coming To The Posts and Simping For The Man In The Bandana. Cut Back To Deimos Looking At Sanford With Love In His Eyes, Dee’s Tablet Vibrated On The Table.
Deimos Quickly Picked It Up, And Saw It Was From Hank. His Panic Died Down A Bit, And He Just Stared At The Notification. Like Sanford, Hank Liked Getting Up Early So He Can Get Things Done. One Of Those Things Would Be Making Sure Tricky Wasn’t Eating All The Food In The Fridge. Tricky Normally Has To Be Fed At Least 8 Times A Day To Ease His Chaotic Nature For A Few Minutes At Most. Then Jebus Has To Look After Him For Safety Reasons.
--------------------------------------------------
Hank: Deimos. Are You Up?
Hank: Deimos? It's 7:04 AM.
Hank: ?
Hank: Deimos??
Hank: Oh Yeah. I Forgot You Like To Sleep In
Hank: You're Probably Going To Wake Up At 8:30 AM, As Always.
Hank: Anyway, I Just Wanted To Say Tricky Misses You Guys. He Keeps Talking About You And He’s Wondering If You 2 Can Come Play With Him Later Today Or Tomorrow.
Hank: He's Happy You Two Are A Couple Now. He Bought A Gift For You Too.
Hank: Well….He Stole It, Then I Had To Pay For The Damage….AND The Gift
Hank: Also, Quick Question….Have You 2 Even Kissed Yet?
--------------------------------------------------
There Was Silence For A Good 3 Seconds Until Deimos Screamed, Startling Sanford. The Tablet Fell On The Table Before Ford Could Even Reach His Boyfriend. The Man In The Bandana Hugged His Boyfriend To Calm Him. Ford Thought It Was Some Fangirl Who Messaged Him And Sent Something Gross As That Happened Very Often. He Took The Tablet To See For Himself, And Snorted When He Saw The Message. He Looked At Deimos Desperately Trying Not To Laugh At What He Saw.
Sanford: “You-” *He Quietly Giggles, Trying Not To Embarrass Deimos On Purpose* “You’re Screaming Because We Haven’t Kissed Yet?”
Deimos: “Well- I- Yo- We- He-”
He Was Immediately Silenced By His Boyfriend’s Lips Making Contact With His. They Stayed Like That For A Few Minutes Before Sanford Pulled Back And Got Back To The Stove. Deimos Just Sat There In Shock, His Face All Hot And Red. That Was Their First Ever Kiss, And Deimos Wanted To Be Involved Too. Just Thinking About It Made Him More Flustered. He Must've Been Spaced Out For A While Because When He Looked Up, Sanford Wasn't There. He Checked His Tablet Again And Saw A Notification: A Text From Hank.
--------------------------------------------------
Hank: Lol. Sanford Told Me You Screamed When I Asked.
Hank: That Probably Was Really Funny In Person
Hank: If Only He Recorded It.
Hank: *[One Attachment Sent]*
{Hank: He Didn’t Answer My Question. Did You Guys Kiss Yet Orrr?
Sanford: Well Yes And No. You Embarrassed Him Lol. It Was So Funny Haha
Sanford: He Screamed When He Saw Your Message, Then I Kissed Him.
Hank: Pfft- Are You Serious?! Wow Lol
Sanford: Yeah Lmao. Made Me Throw A Pancake At The Ceiling. It Was Mine Too :(
Sanford: Good Wasted Pancake :(
Sanford: *[One Attachment Sent]* {Image Description: A Gray Tiled Ceiling With A Medium-Sized Pancake Smacked In Between 4 Tiles.}
Hank: XD}
Deimos: I-
Deimos: YOU!! >:( THAT WAS YOUR FAULT HANK J. WIMBLETON!!
Deimos: YOU MADE HIM WASTE HIS PANCAKE. THAT WAS YOU!!
Deimos: YOU FUDGING BULLY >:(
Deimos: I'LL HECKING FIGHT YOU!!
Hank: XD
Hank: Yeah Right Lol. I'll See You Later
--------------------------------------------------
A Couple Minutes Pass And Sanford Taps Deimos On The Shoulder. Dee Turns Around To See His Boyfriend Fully Dressed. A Pile Of Clothes Was Placed In The Seat Next To The Shorter Man. Deimos Could Only Assume It Was His Clothing, As Hank Did Invite Them Over To See Tricky. The Smoker Popped A Cigarette In His Mouth And Left To Get Dressed. Once He Got Back, He Put His Cigarette In The Ashtray And Got Sanford Greeted With A Kiss. Well 2, One On The Forehead And One On The Mouth.
Deimos: “You Know, You Could’ve Waited Till I Was Ready For The Kiss.”
Sanford: “Why? It Would’ve Been A Year Or Two If You Said You Were Ready. That’s Basically How Our Relationship Started. Everyone Knows That, Ev-EVEN TRICKY KNOWS!”
Deimos’s Face Just Heated Up, He Knew That Was True And Couldn't Argue. After That Chat, Sanford And Deimos Got In Their Car And Headed To The Base. Deimos Was Messaging Hank During The Entire Ride. Hank Was Teasing Deimos A Lot About The Kiss, And How Deimos Reacted When It Was First Brought Up. Deimos Yelled-Texted At Hank Again, Causing The Man In The Red Goggles To Laugh Again. Dee Put His Tablet Away Once They Got To The Base. Of Course, None Other Than Hank Himself Was There To Greet Them And Welcome Them Back In.
They Passed The Savior, Jebus, Who Was Reading A Book, Supposedly A Bible Or Something He Could Find Lying Around. He Was Sitting At A Table With Red Wine In A Fancy Glass And Biscuits On A Plate. Deimos Wondered If Hank Told Him About It, Since He Received A Teasing Look. Sanford Just Thought Nothing Of It, And Wanted To See If Tricky Had Actually Changed Since Their Last Encounter With Him.
Once They Approached Tricky's Room, Or Area (Whatever You Would Call It), They Saw Signs Like 'Caution: Beware The Clown', And 'Do Not Enter Unless You Are Hank'. They Were Also Greeted By The Sound Of Someone Eating Something Viciously.
Looking From The Glass Window On The Wall, They Saw The Clown Filling His Face With All Different Kinds Of Food. He Stopped To Grab A Drink, But Got Distracted By Seeing Hank With Sanford And Deimos. Tricky Immediately Ran To The Glass And Smacked His Face Against It, Causing Ford And Dee To Jump Back.
Tricky Smiled In Delight After Seeing Deimos And Sanford For The First Time In A Long While. He Waved Through The Glass, Then Rushed To The Speaker. The Faint Sound Of Someone Yelling 'HAAANNK!' And 'VALID. FRIENDS' Could Be Heard Through The Speaker. The Door Suddenly Opened Slowly, The Smell Of All Kinds Of Foods Plus Blood Pouring Out Of The Opening And The Cracks. The Clown Immediately Jumped Out Of The Room, Startling The Trio.
Tricky: "SANFORD! HANK! DEIMOS! FRIENDS! VALID. YES."
Hank Actually Smiled Upon Tricky's Entrance, He Patted The Clown's Head Twice And Let The Other 2 Do The Same Thing After. They Talked About Everything That Happened, And Caught Up With Each Other. Jebus Entered The Room Half Way Through The Conversation And Joined In. They Chatted For Hours, Tricky Was The One To Point Out The Time To Everyone. Sanford Said That He And Deimos Had To Leave, As It Was Late (11:12 PM).
They Said Their Goodbyes Before Ford And Dee Headed Out. They Stayed Silent In The Car, Just Thinking About How Much The Others Have Changed. Tricky, Who Has Become More Friendly And Takes Baths. Hank, Who Is More Calm And 'Married To A Blender'. And Jebus, Who Has More Control And Is Starting To Learn Dad Jokes.
Deimos: "I Had Fun Chatting With Them After A While. I Just Wish Candice Was There With Us, I Miss Her."
Sanford: "...We Didn't Know A Candice."
Deimos, Grinning: "I Know Candice. I've Known Her For A While Now."
Sanford, Not Falling For It: "Good For You. Is She Nice?"
Deimos: "....Y-Yeah…...Although Her House Really Smells Like Updog. It's A Problem."
Sanford: "......Really?"
Deimos, Pushing The Joke: "Yes, Especially The Kitchen. It Really Reeks Of Updog. It's Disgusting, Bleck"
Sanford, Sighing And Smiling: "What Is Updog?"
Deimos, Giggling Like A Child: "Nahat Much Wh-"
Deimos Couldn't Finish His Sentence Because He Was Laughing. Sanford Just Snorted And Smiled, He Always Knew How He Could Get His Boyfriend Lost In Laughter. Even If A Joke Wasn't Really That Funny, Deimos Could Be Laughing For An Hour. He Absolutely Loves Jokes Of All Kinds And It Doesn't Matter Who Tells Them. By The Time They Arrived Home, Deimos Was Still Slightly Giggling And Wiping A Tear From His Eye.
Sanford Carried Deimos Into The House, As The Man In The Visor Finished His Giggling Fit. Ford Set His Boyfriend Onto The Couch And Started Getting Ready For Bed. He Left Dee Some Comfy Clothes To Slip Into For Bed. About A Couple Minutes Later They Both Were On The Couch In Pajamas (Or Just Clothes They Never Wear To Work).
Deimos: "Why Weren’t You Laughing At The Joke, Sanford?"
Sanford: "The Joke Wasn't That Funny, Deimos. You've Heard It Over One Hundred Times Already."
Deimos, Giggling Again: "But..It's Funny."
Sanford, Trying Not To Smile: "It-It's Really Not."
Deimos, Now Full On Laughing: "I- It Was Funny When Hank Fell For The Candice Joke." *He Smacked His Side While He Laughed* "It Hurt Like Hell, But It Was Worth It!"
Sanford, Smiling But Trying Hard Not To Laugh: "Oh Right I Forgot About That."
Sanford Then Let Deimos Cuddle Against Him As He Laughed Again. He Only Laughed Harder When Sanford Yelled, 'It's Not That Funny!'. Eventually, Ford Was Laughing As Well With His Boyfriend. They Laughed Until They Eventually Fell Asleep. Today Was A Good Day For Both Of Them, And They Were Happy They Could Spend It Together, Like Old Times.

COFFEE SHOP AU PT 4
SEGMENT THREE of four cause it turned out segment three is so long I cant put it in one post XD
After Cruentus had left to make the tea, Hat curled back up onto the bed, was he as bad as Vincent…with his inability to ever truly let Acylius go?
Nuzzling against the pillow Flug used to lay his head on , Amadeus whimpered softly…no if his Acylius did not…could not love him in this new life, he would never make him do anything he didn’t want to do, he could never do what Vincent had done to Flug, ever.
Now that he was the one with power he knew one thing, he would protect Acylius from ever being hurt or harmed again, if someone so much as tried to he would destroy them without second thought.
Pulling the pillow to his chest he cuddled it closer, knowing he was down there, in the town in that little coffee shop, so close and yet so far away was far more heart wrenching than anyone could imagine, to have those eyes look at him and not recognise him…a small part of him wondered if he should be in his life again…after all he had been the final piece to fall into place to set in motion the events that would lead to Acylius’s death…
Oh he knew Acylius would tell him it was always meant to happen, that it wasn’t his fault…idiot man, he could have lived and left the Elderichts to rot…let him rot in the gutters with them, if all his kindness only ended up with him being killed for it…
Hat curled in tighter feeling the guilt of that thought twist in his gut, to think it was dishonouring all Lulu had fought for, all he’d done only had him curl up tighter, often he’d wished he’d been able to save him, be there just in time and be his hero…the irony of those words…yet being a hero…was not all what modern day society made it out to be with brightly coloured suits and pulling in fans…it was about doing the right thing and stepping up…as much as Acylius had his darkness…
In his own right, to the Elderichts…he was their hero, who kept his name quiet out of respect because it was what his stupid tree had wanted…if he’d had his way he’d have built a statue, had books written about him, the finest artists make portrait galleries out of him, made the universe aware of his existence, a proclamation of love for everyone to hear spoken across time and space…
But no…that was not his Doctor Flug; his Acylius whispered like the spring breeze through the blossom trees he loved so much only becoming a thunderous fearful storm when called for, he was absolutely ridiculous at times, daft as anything to when he was in the safety of his own home…he could not forget that first morning….
(Wavy scene and flash back music, shrugs I’m just like that and finally using an old ramble of mine <3) and I will let you know when the flash back ends ❤️
Hat looked himself over in the mirror, he’d straightened out his tie and suit, even though his ears were hidden under his top hat even brushed the fur on them, made sure he was as presentable as he could be, after all he did not know what half of these fancy contraptions laid out on his…was it his dressing table.
That idiot Legion Demon just came out of nowhere and was all here have a place to sleep, a room of your own, even though you’re in heat I won’t take advantage of you or even touch you, honestly what was he supposed to do with that, anyone else would have taken what they wanted and left him there.
Hat huffed, why was he so upset that Acylius…no no he couldn’t call him that, he was Doctor Flug, Legion Demon, a creature highly sought after, if he wasn’t careful about how he spoke to the demon he might push his luck too far and be kicked out, that would not exactly be something new but…this time…even if they’d just met yesterday, he found himself not wanting to leave.
He would do what he needed to do, to placate him, to sooth his temper if he had one, most of his kind liked sex after all right, he did too honestly but…when it was consensual, but he was not above doing what needed to be done to keep a roof over his head within reason…though he still couldn’t deny he was somewhat miffed Acylius had not come in last night and just taken him, at least he would have been one of the more attractive…
Who was he fooling, he found the Legion demon beautiful, and what was he?
(This is my story and I will have hat all dreamy about the tree like some romance novel if I want XD)
A short little thing that had crawled out of a heap…he knew he deserved more, that his kind should not be living such poor lives, to be used as food, as toys or experiments, but too many of them had accepted their fates and he’d agreed to leave knowing his determination of better to rise up would only cause them problems…and well they already had enough of those.
Black Hat looked over the room he’d been given, that bed was so soft he thought he might have sunk into it never to be seen again, the on suite bathroom filled with so many different bottles of this, that and the other left him overwhelmed, usually he’d had to share baths with those he’d stayed with.
Hands on the dressers edge, his claws digging lightly into the wood, this was his chance, his first real big chance to make his place be more than what he was, to prove to all these rich elitist snobs that you did not need to come from riches to belong, that everyone was equal when things were made even and equal.
Yes when he had his stand, he would show them but for now he was going to go downstairs and show the Legion demon the respect he no doubt felt he deserved, there was no possible way there was not a catch in all of this somewhere.
He went first to the kitchen, it was silent and well no one was around and the bin seemed to need changing, stuffed full of scraps of food...with the word recycle carved into it, well no one was there yet he could find himself a bite to eat out of it, it was unlikely Acylius or his butler would serve him anything but what came from here anyway right.
Lifting the lid he didn’t even flinch at the smell, he’d eaten from worse places after all, Black Hat had been about to reach a hand in when he heard someone clearing their throat at the door way, he froze, was this it the thing that would get him turned out now, he was only taking food no longer wanted…his fingers stretched then curled, hand falling back by his side and waited.
“Sir, if Acylius saw you eating from the bins it would upset him greatly…”
Cruentus walked up by his side briskly and shut the lid
“Why because I was stealing something no longer wanted?”
Hat returned looking up at Cruentus, his gaze defiant and shoulders drawn back, he was not ashamed of finding food where he could when he needed it.
“No, because the thought he’d let you starve or feel you would ever go without food here would mortify him.”
Hat blinked as he listened to the hellhounds sombre tone, well that was unexpected
“Oh and why is that?”
It looked as if the butler had wanted to tell but his maw was kept shut on the matter shaking his head
“That is not my story to tell, perhaps the master will tell you eventually himself…now what do you want for breakfast.”
“I doubt you would give me anything with bacon.”
Hat replied looking away…this place was odd indeed.
“Do you want it thick cut? Smoked or not? Crispy or not?”
Cruentus inquired walking past him again and tied on his apron
“Th-there’s more than one way to have it?” Hat answered completely lost at that answer
“I see, I will make you a whole selection then, I assure you the master would want you to be able to learn what you like, though be warned he might pinch a piece of the crispy bacon.”
Cruentus laughed setting out the frying pans.
Pinch a piece of food from someone else’s plate? A Legion demon would never do such a thing, not a high class creature like Doctor Flug, no…it wasn’t possib- and then he saw the tall, long legged demon entering the room, scratching at his head, wearing grey sweat pants and a jumper to match, looking nothing like the being he’d met yesterday, adorned with a five o clock shadow, his hair not even brushed and fluffy slippers.
Hat stood there, slack jawed as Acylius yawned, fangs bared a moment and then just looking sleepy but happy
“Good morning Black Hat, I trust you slept well?”
Damn it his voice was that deep soft rumbling gravel …he could have read him the phone book and his ears would have perked up just to listen to each soothing syllable that left those scarred lips.
(I described it once as being like James Spader’s voice you might know the voice of Ultron from age of ultron or Alucard from Hellsing)
Of course the first thing to come out of Hat’s mouth was not exactly the appropriate answer as he sputtered
“Is this!? I mean is this how you usually live?!”
Cruentus bit his lip; forcing back the laugh that swelled within his chest, ohhhh apparently this little creature was in for a wakeup call if Hat thought he was living with a snobby demon indeed!
Acylius looked at him then opened the cupboard pulling out something akin to the lucky charms cereal only in this world it had little devils and demons and pentagons all pastel coloured
“Not when I have certain guests over, after all some demons will not see you unless you put on airs, a display that you are high class, boring stuff really if you ask me.”
He shrugged pulling now the milk from the fridge and was about to drink from the carton
“Boy, what have I told you about doing that? Don’t make me tap your ears young man.”
Cruentus pointed the tongs at him that he used to turn the bacon in the pan, snapping them at him.
Acylius’s ears went down as he smiled sheepishly, cheeks tinting pink
“Sorry Papa, I know it’s a bad habit.”
Did Doctor Flug’s butler just reprimand him, was Flugs Butler his father….what the huh?
Hat shook his head, what in all of hell what going on, standing up straight he looked up at them
“I am a guest here you could at least treat me as such, I have done my best to be proper like the rich are and…”
Acylius loomed over him, looking much like those silhouette pictures you see in animations when they’re going for the threatening look
“Is this what you want Amadeus for me to look down on you, I do not take kindly to my guests, they know visiting me and one wrong word can put them in poor favour with me…”
His eyes glowed white there was not colour in them and in that mass of black his smile grew and grew, showing off bright white fangs thin and needle like, another one appeared and another all of them speaking as he prodded him
“IS this what you want Amadeus, for me to be the monster they expect me to be?”
Cruentus raised a brow, oh so Hat liked what he saw before him did he, it was pretty obvious with how transfixed he was.
Amadeus pulled off his hat and played with it in his hands letting it fall below the waist, doing his best to subtly hide something that showed he enjoyed seeing this darker side of Acylius, Cruentus of course only shook his head and continued on the bacon, oh lord he could see how this was going to go eventually anyway.
Acylius froze, cat ears, fluffy black cat ears …Amadeus had, he wanted to touch them so much, to run his claws over them and nuzzle into the soft fur, his display disappeared, back into the grey sweats and dishevelled hair, cereal and milk in his hands and then the softest look that made Hat want to reach out and touch his face and let him know everything would be alright.
“I am sorry if I frightened you Amadeus…but you are not a guest you are a housemate and I want you to know you can be relaxed here in this place in your home if you so wish it to be your home.”
He turned and went to sit at the table about to pour milk into the box of cereal when Cruentus placed a bowl and spoon in front of him
“Stop that I know you’re just trying to be this extra lazy to vex me.”
Cruentus chuckled tapping the top of his head
“Perhaps I am, but you like knowing I still want you to do little things for me now and again Papa.”
“What kind of Father would I be if I were not there for my son hmm?”
Cruentus answered affectionately before going off to serve up the bacon.
Hat, was still standing shifting on his feet.
“Can I sit to?”
Cruentus came along with the plate and literally picked hat up by the back of the neck right where he knew he’d turn into a kitten and curl up completely compliant
“Dumbass he said you’re a house mate you can sit whenever you want.”
He sat him on the seat across from Acylius and set the plate down
“Bon appetit Amadeus, being welcomed to stay in the home by Acylius is honestly a rare thing…very rare.”
“Cruentus, can you please not do that again, I abhor when that is done to me.”
Hat ground out between clenched teeth, hands balled up into fists and ears laid back, his hat sitting on his lap, the problem he’d had was now gone, placing his hat back on, he expected Cruentus to snap at him or punish him…after all he was still…a…a sewer rat to everyone who wasn’t one of his kind…there was no reason for these demons to treat him like he…mattered.
“My apologies Amadeus, I should not have been so forward in my actions, I will not do that again.”
Hat only grumbled and started munching on the bacon using his fingers to pick it up
“Fork, Amadeus and knife if you want to start appearing proper in front of polite company.”
“Yes sir.”
“My name is Acylius, not sir, master or Doctor Flug behind closed doors and out of the ears of others, I suppose if it makes you comfortable you can call me Flug if you do not feel on a first name basis with me.”
“Really, that is a little too personal do you not think Doctor Flug?”
Black Hat sneered, after all was that not the way of the rich, to act better, to be Impersonal.
“Honestly at this rate I will leave as your actions have been highly disappointing and not what I expected of a Legion demon such as yourself.”
Was he doing it right, was he acting like the higher class do?
The room fell silent, a fist hitting the table making the cutlery rattle
“Amadeus Black Hat, you will not talk to him like that, what are you going to do? Return to living in motel rooms, drifting from place to place to be used like a toy, the next house you go into you will not come out of…except through the sewers as faecal matter.”
Acylius placed a hand on Cruentus’s arm; his father huffed and turned away
“The higher ups out there, most of them couldn’t give two shit’s they would sooner kill you…if I had not arrived Amadeus when I did …it would literally be a matter of moments before their assassins ascended on you and left your corpse in the street…”
The legion demon poked at his cereal, it’d gone soggy now and honestly he’d lost his appetite
“I’ve assigned you as my being, by law and the ways of a Legion this means they cannot touch you but only when I am with you or Cruentus is with you…I promised myself I would never do that, but I know what you are trying to do and I have already been trying to help the cause.”
Hat’s breath stilled, those eyes the way they changed hues of blue fleeting through emotions, assigned himself, he’d already been helping what did that mean he would ask soon it was clear the doctor was not done
“Amadeus outside of this home I now belong to you in their eyes like a pedigree dog, it’s what they see Legion demons as, they must treat us at least with respect and some kindness if they do not want their fortune to fall, but in this home. I am what I have always been, Acylius Flug the Free Legion, those who are on our side will know this, but I am going to use my ridiculously high class to teach you to be a refined villain and to be like them if you so wish to be a monster.”
Ah so that was what assigned meant, to be his …good luck charm to be the reason the dice fell in his favour so to speak, he’d given up his freedom in a sense for him…
“Amadeus’s I would tell you to take your elbows off the table as it is considered rude but in this place I am going to live my life as I wish to, as I want to, I only want to run a quiet little coffee shop , perhaps find a partner and live a quieter life…”
Acylius leaned back and placed his feet on the table and Amadeus’s looked along the length of those legs, holy …they were long.
“How did you find me?”
Amadeus asked quietly.
Acylius pulled a cigarette from nowhere, his thumb lighting up with a blue flame to light it, it was not a thing humans could inhale, despite it‘s sweet lavender scent, scratching lightly at his stubble he took a drag and let the taste settle on his tongue and the warmth of the smoke swirl within his lungs before exhaling, they were also not toxic but used as a relaxant with nothing that could cause harm.
“You were not exactly subtle about your notions, you let too many of the wrong ears hear your plans, your thoughts about inequality, there is always a high caste group who will detest such on goings and try to keep what they consider balance, to them you’re dangerous Amadeus…the thought that could get your kind to rise up if they feel there is reason and hope to.”
He paused again to take another puff
“Your kind were not always in the sewers, but I have not uncovered much of your history but I see you as a kindred spirit, both wanting better for our kind, I do not expect you to help my cause, but I ask one thing, if you do become some great overlord that over throws them…free the Legions from the contracts they are bound to, let them always have free choice to leave if they so desire to…once bound we cannot be freed unless our assigned master allows it.”
“I give you my word Flug, if you can truly help me, and mean what you are offering I will do what you ask…and I…I am sorry, I have had the idea all high people were the same even in their homes I forget that even those who reign in gold palaces have hearts…and own personal problems…do you all hide behind those marble masks of cold in public?”
Hat replied, offering out a piece of bacon, after all Cruentus had said Acylius did like pinching off other people’s plates and it’d seemed the doctor had gone off his cereal, it was a crispy piece so far his favourite of the lot but he wanted to share it with him.
Hat’s heart raced as their finger tips came in contact and Acylius actually took the piece and thanked him for it before proceeding to munch on it happily
“Thank you Black Hat, I can only hope you will stand to that promise, I have willingly pledged my life to you…and to answer your question, most of them do not wear emotional masks they are just that up their own ass and that cold…perhaps you have seen me around before…”
With a wave of his hand his face was cleaned up and hair tidied as well as scars hidden away he pulled a face one would expect a cold creature to pull.
“Oh dear lord you’re the one Vincent would not stop going on about…I remember him constantly talking about you, literally has a shrine of you in his bedroom…he let me stay one night after I fixed his coat for him.”
“Bah that daft obsessed Rabbit demon, often I have thought of putting him in a racing track and letting hounds chase after him, I wonder how he would feel about me then.”
He let the illusion fade and returned back to his dishevelled state letting a ring of smoke drift Hat’s way, the angle he was at made it circle the rough top hat perfectly, his ears perked up
“Ahh yes there it is, your organization shall be called Black Hat Organization, Evil is our business, and business is good!”
With a flick of his wrist a white card stood between two finger tips, he tossed it to Amadeus who caught it and saw the image, a silhouette of a top hat and a black ring with the business name under it.
“Now before we start any kind of business I will need to train and guide you and awaken such powers within you, not even you could imagine.”

–> This post includes all tweets posted on the official Rejet Twitter account for Reiji Sakamaki (@DiaLoverReijiS) in 2019.
Shuu l Ayato l Kanato l Laito l Subaru l Ruki l Kou l Yuma l Azusa l Carla l Shin l Kino
Tumblr media
January 4, 2019
> I am not getting anywhere organizing these New Year cards.
> Oh, Kou has sent one as well. Actually, this one is addressed to Subaru.
February 14, 2019
> Trying to give me chocolates is a rather pretentious decision, I must say. Let me have a close look at the chocolates you’ve chosen. If they do not suit my tastes, I shall have you buy new ones. Next time, I shall accompany you when you go pick out the chocolates.
February 25, 2019
> It has been a while, uncle. What seems to be the matter today? (@Richter)
> Yes, there have been no significant changes. Well, except for the large amount of Takoyaki for Ayato, coffins for Subaru and various type of sweets for Kanato which have been delivered to our manor. I shall take this as an opportunity to ask but, you were behind all of this, am I right? (@Richter)
> Please spare me the lip service. I already know what you are scheming. You claim to want to ask me something, but what is your true intention?  (@Richter)
> That is exactly what someone with bad intentions would say. What a great adult you are. I’d like to ask you to kindly refrain from taking such foolish actions. (@Richter)
> Please do not get the wrong idea. I do not need any gifts from you. (@Richter)
February 26, 2019
> A large amount of cutlery sets was delivered to this household earlier. Taking into account yesterday’s conversation, this must surely be uncle’s doing. Honestly, what a selfish act.
> However, considering the tableware in this house gets destroyed by Ayato and the others on a daily basis, it might not be bad to keep this as a back-up. I suppose I could at least go express a word of gratitute to our uncle, who seems to be repeatedly ringing the doorbell at present.
> The fact he threw those kind of questions at me as soon as we met shows his lack of manners. Since he was so persistent, I had no other choice but to respond. Well then, I’ll go polish all of this cutlery now.
March 14, 2019
> I have headed out to do some grocery shopping. (@Laito)
> Please substitute it with some vinyl string instead. (@Laito)
> Oh, I’m surprised you were able to tell. (@Ayato)
> I see. So that is your reasoning. In that case, I definitely won’t allow it. You have to prepare such a thing yourself. (@Ayato)
> You too? I told Ayato earlier as well, but these kind of things have to be prepared by yourself. (@Shuu)
March 18, 2019
> Honestly, no matter how many times you tell him, Shuu just will not wake up on a set time.
> I wonder if there are any good solutions?
> [Signal boost] We are currently gathering suggestions to prevent that good-for-nothing from sleeping. If you have a good suggestion, please get in touch with Sakamaki Reiji.
> I suppose the frying pan is still the most effective.
--> There’s a running joke within the DL franchise that Reiji goes around banging two pans together in the morning to wake everyone up. xD
March 27, 2019
> Answer me. Where are you right now?
> I wonder what you are planning, disappearing like that without reporting a single thing to me. It is outrageous for a lowly servant to act on their own accord like that. Let me tell you this now, you belong to me. I shall not allow my possessions to defy me like that. 
> Heed my every order. Understood?
> What do we have here?
> Those tweets from the afternoon are not by me. I wonder if one of my brothers is behind this.
> Alternatively, it could be related to the strange things which have been happening as of late. In that case, I cannot sit still. I have to investigate this as soon as possible.
> What’s with the dumbfounded expression? You are coming with me as well. Hurry up and get ready.
> Of course, I do not believe you will be of much use. If anything, if we were to run into some sort of trouble, I assume I would have to protect you at all costs.
> However, I still want to take you with me. I want you to be by my side; Therefore, please try your best not to burden me too much.
> I’ve taken my time to directly instruct you. So obviously, you will live up to my expectations, will you not? 
March 28, 2019
> Just help us out. We are starting with the cleaning of the living room. Understood? (@Kino)
April 1, 2019
> You guys! Listen to what yours truly says!
> Inside of Reiji is Ayato-sama!
May 9, 2019
> I can tell the season is changing.
> It has gotten warmer, so I’ll have to switch up my pajamas as well.
June 6, 2019
> About your shirt, it has most likely found its way to our household. I have never seen this shirt before, so there’s no mistaking it. (@Ruki)
> Shuu is behind this. After he came home with a dirty shirt, he told me he had changed into a random one which happened to be within reach. I assume yours was a perfect fit since you are the same height. (@Ruki)
> Yes, exactly. Although I don’t want to hear that from you. (@Ruki)
July 7, 2019
> I want to be able to spend one day without any discomfort. #TanabataWishes
August 7, 2019
> Pardon me.
> I have come to invite you to a party. Please attend tomorrow’s festivities with me. Of course, I shall personally escort you.
> Are you ready? Well then, let us head out.
August 16, 2019
> It’s salt, not sugar. Please do not get that wrong. (@Subaru)
August 22, 2019
> You! I was wondering where you had run off to, but this is where you’ve been? Did I not tell you to stay by my side at all costs during the party?
> You truly are hopeless without me.
August 29, 2019
> You truly are beyond belief, celebrating my birthday once again this year, you never learn. Even if you ask me what I want, I cannot answer. The fact that you wish for my happiness is more than enough. ...No, I suppose this is a good opportunity, let me be a little more greedy. Let’s start with a kiss. You can do that, right?
September 10, 2019
> Speak for yourself. (@Kanato)
September 24, 2019
> I found a book I read when I was young.
> Let me read it once more since it’s been a while.
> I might interpret it differently than back then. 
October 9, 2019
> Good grief. My brothers are a bunch of dimwits.
> Whoever hid my glasses and replaced them with sunglasses, reveal yourself at once! Right now, I might let you off the hook with a light punishment.
> If I have to catch the culprit myself without them admitting to their crime, I hope you are prepared to face an adequate punishment.
October 16, 2019
> I am busy right now. Please do that yourself. (@Kanato)
> I suppose you leave me with no other choice. You’ll have my full attention once I’ve finished up the task at hand. Please go and collect some leaves in the meantime. (@Kanato)
October 29, 2019
> Fufu, how pathetic.
> How careless of me, but somehow I simply cannot control myself in front of you. While repeating this action over and over, we might just go insane.
> You and me both.
October 31, 2019
> Two zombies visited our manor earlier.
> They demanded some konpeito. While I did not wish to give it to them so easily, I wanted to prevent them from sticking around for too long, so I just gave in.
--> Konpeito is a traditional Japanese sweet shaped like colorful, little stars. It’s basically just made out of sugar though, no additional taste. It’s also Kino’s favorite food.
> Seems like the desire to adapt to the customs of these events has been passing from one household to the other. These people must have a lot of free time on their hand, I reckon. Although I have a faint suspicion of who could be behind this.
> For us demon races to be participating in Halloween is simply outrageous.
> It would be a waste of my time to play along with these fools. They don’t seem to have caused any damage for now, so I’ll just leave them be.
November 5, 2019
> It’s tea time. March Hare, Dormouse, are you two ready?
--> It has been brought to my attention that there was a Dark Wonderland event going on for DL (and possibly other Rejet franchises) at this time, hence the Alice in Wonderland parody tweets during the beginning of November.
> Yes, exactly. Every day is tea time over here. Therefore, hurry up and drag the Dormouse over here. 
November 8, 2019
> Every day is tea time over here.
> Ever since I have been punished by the Queen, time has stopped for me.
> Well then, let us get this tea party started.
December 10, 2019
> The cold should not faze us Vampires, so why? Right now, I do not wish to let go of your warmth.
December 24, 2019
> Merry Christmas.
> It’s you we’re talking about. I am sure you must wish to spend Christmas Day with your lover? If that is what you long for, I will gladly fulfill said wish.

Noone expected im alive, but i am!!! XD
Soooooooo since i dont have Good excuse for my... "short" break i'll just go straight to The point (kinda).
(Since my last chapter my writting style Has Changed A little and I hope its for The best ^^")
WARNING
FROM NOW ON, THERE WILL BE POSTED SOMETHING AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH!!! (And this chapter includes bad english, since i didint have much time for correct translation. IM LOOKING 4 BETA READER XD)
This chapter is just an short flashback. These will apear every now and Then to introduce u to come backstory nad New plot.
Enjoy
Nothing Good Comes From Secrets
Chapter 4
—What if it doesn't work?— Asked the young boy, looking unsurely at his old friend. It was a quiet spring morning when the older man called on him to come to his aid. As his assistant boy unfortunately, had no other choice then to come to him and help his "boss". Regardless of the day or time, young assistant nad to be always Ready to come to this.. Blanc and not very clear room. This time He was sitting quietly on one of the many tables in a fairly large room. Young boy was stretching and yawning every now and then, from both obradom nad exuastion. After all, he too was human himself. He couldn't just stay awake for.. woj knows how many days in a row and be in fully rested. At the moment he was under the influence of a "few" mugs of coffee... which he didn't really mind, but probably wasn't the healthiest. While the aforementioned man walked around the room, going from one place to another, the boy most simply enjoyed doing nothing, and enjoyed a moment of peace.
—Don't whine, just stop hanging around and help me here.— said the old man quite dryly when finally, after several minutes of running from place to place, he stopped at a rather.. strange device.. or at least it could seem strange to people who didn't know it. From the very beginning of the device's development, the boy helped an adult onlocrat in constructing it, therefore both the general idea and the operation of the mechanisms were very well known to him. As soon as he paused at the typewriter for a moment, he immediately began rummaging through it, tinkering with a mass of colored cables. As the boy often pointed out to him, the adult never took a break. However, it didn't bother him somehow.. until adult didn't go too far with this all... "job" and happened to knock to his door at Like, for example 5 am. That was quite problematic and annoying. —Would you give me a screwdriver?— He said snapping him out of his mind, rather unhappy with the work of his assistant... since when nothing came to him, he just sits on this damned table and does nothing.
The boy sighed heavily, rolling his eyes at the tone of his friend's voice, then looked around for the tool. He looked around the room for a moment before he saw the screwdriver lying on the table... a few yards away... it was far too far to get up from a comfortable position and go get it... so he focused on the object lying nearby. him, extending his hand towards him. After a short while the object slowly and quite unsteadily lifted into the air and then slowly ventilated to the man, who grabbed it without any problems, even without looking at it. —Thank you, but you could move sometimes for a change— he said as if nothing had happened, continuing to work.
Hearing the tone of his voice, the teenager sighed heavily, placing his elbows on his lap and resting his head on his hands. He was even kicking his legs for some kind of fun in this robił od boredom. How many times has he heard that, and not only from his boss... still only people told him to get his ass off and finally get down to something.. only, his family didn't know where he was working, and couldn't never find out. He won't allow it. He don't want anything to happen to them. —Maybe… I could… but what for, when I can use mine…— he didn't even have a chance to finish The sentence because the older man spoke up, interrupting him.
—Your "tricks"?— He asked, rolling his eyes. He had known his assistant for so long that he already knew every answer or excuse he made almost event day. After all, not only was he working for him, but he also knew it from childhood. From an early age he knew this kid was a really special child.. it was also one of the only reasons why he had not been fired for his laziness yet. Only when he trully wanted something, he could get himself together. If he set something as a goal, it was impossible to stop him from fulfilling it... he always just needed a little kick to the momentum. —unfortunately for you, knowing all these "tricks" doesn't excuse you from not moving at all.— He said quite indifferently, continuing to work. Unfortunately, he did not have time to constantly reprimand his assistant. He was busy literally all the time. After all, he wasn't the type of person to sit still and do nothing. Even if he wanted to, he just couldn't.
At the end of this conversation, the boy shrugged the theatrical shoulders, before he lay down completely on the table he had been sitting on. He had had enough of this. All this craving for his boss... he didn't need a second father since he already had one. Besides, he was also able to take care of himself, even in the most unfavorable conditions. He has proven it more than once, and if necessary, he will prove it again. He's practically an adult, so people have to learn not to treat him like a baby. —yeah, whatever you say.— he said slowly closing his eyes. Maybe if he tries his best, he will get some sleep? At least he hoped so...

First Lines Meme
Tagged by @cheeriosandwine
Rules: List the first lines of your last 20 stories (if you have less than 20, just list them all). See if there are any patterns. Choose your favorite opening line, then tag 10 of your favorite authors!
Oh, goodie, this should be fun XD Taken from the last 20 stories off my AO3 as of 4/2/21, I’m not gonna post links bc that’s exhausting but here’s my AO3 account, have fun.
1. It wasn’t often that Aziraphale got the urgent and sudden sense of being needed, not these days. (Summer Blockbuster Teenage Angst Fest, Chapter Nine: HOLY WATER)
2. Once upon a time, there lived a king named Shadwell, who did alright for himself as far as kingdoms went, but he had no heir to inherit his throne. (far longer than forever (you’re my best friend) )
3. Warlock Dowling walked his three special invitations to the mainland mailbox in the dead of night, six months before the posted date of the event.  (dancing queen (guaranteed to blow your mind) )
4. Crowley’s slumber was interrupted by a very insistent poke to his face. (Pen to Paper)
5. It is quiet and still, in the After. (repose)
6. How it happened wasn’t entirely clear. (Peace and Goodwill, although to be fair this was a collaborative work and I’m pretty sure this line in particular was olwendylluan’s; I thiiiink, if memory serves, my actual first written line was either “As a group, they followed Junior into the greenhouse, Angelica carrying her plate of food, Datura with half a danish still hanging out of their mouth.” or ““Where did you even find pipe cleaners?” Clem asked, looking up from his bow-making station at Angelica, sitting across the table from him and weaving together black and red pipe cleaners.“, it’s not entirely clear)
7. Marley was dead, though this has very little bearing whatsoever on the story about to unfold. (Bless Us, One and All, though props to Mr. Dickens for the yoinking that took place)
8. “Angel!” Crowley called as he stepped into the bookshop, one fine autumn afternoon well after Armageddon’t. (you don’t have to answer, leave them hangin’ on the line)
9. “Crowley. Crowley, look.” (Thirteenth Night, Chapter Two: Bones; it’s a compilation work of both standalone art and writing, I just took where one of the writing bits began)
10. Some days Junior couldn’t get out of bed. (Third Eden, Chapter Five: Step by Step; a collab, but this latest update was one of mine so here we are)
11. “Father?” (Snake Cottage, or Snottage, , Chapter Eleven: An Awkward Question)
12. The morning was cold and grey. (The Whole Truth)
13. Angelica, being a master of the art, knew when she was getting the cold shoulder. (The New Arrangement, Chapter 18: WAR AND PEACE; another collab, but this particular chapter, the latest update, was my own, so first lines from there it is)
14. It was a quiet afternoon in the bookshop, which didn’t happen often these days. (Snake Parents, or Snarents,)
15. It occurred to Aziraphale that he hadn’t heard the hissing of tiny tongues in quite a while. (A Very Wiggleverse Snektember, Chapter One: Sunbathing; another collaborative work but one that’s complete so I just took my first line in it)
16. In the end, Michael did not stay with Adam and Eve and their brood the entire time, though when she first left the little humans latched onto her hands and wailed. (Frabjous Portents, Chapter 4, which I am going to get back to I swear, I have an outline and everything XD)
17. Crowley was not in bed when Aziraphale woke up. (The Empty Nest)
18. Aziraphale drew his hand through the water of the bath he’d drawn for his beloved, stirring in the scented oils, testing the scalding temperatures. (living waters)
19. It started with an overheard conversation at school. (To Have and to Hold, Chapter One; another collab, but the first chapter was mine, so here we go!)
20. You have all, perhaps, heard the tale of the little cinder girl, yes? Good. (find me (somebody to love) )
I feel like I tend to start on one isolated kind of scene-setting or dynamic, dramatic sentence, but there were quite a few that had whole paragraphs to start, which surprised me, so I suppose I’m very pleased about it XD My favorite of the bunch is probably the opening of “living waters” but “Snake Parents, or Snarents,” has some very satisfying transitions, which isn’t opening lines but if you think about it, it kind of is, just for entire scenes.
Oh, tagging people...um...tell you what, if this sounds like fun to you, this is my explicit given permission, and you can even fib and say I tagged you, if you’d like XD

WIP Challenge
Thank you @irolltwenties for the tag ♥
WIP Challenge 😁❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍❤😁🤩🤩
Rules: tell us the titles of all the WIPs you are currently working on right now and a little about them. Then tag five other writers.
I am... only going to include WIPs I've actively worked on in recent memory or that are supposed to be coming up soon, because otherwise, we'll be here all day. Also, what are titles before posting? You can have the GDoc titles XD
[Warning for rape mentions and incest mentions]
JayTimWeek Fic - Day 2
A BDSM AU, with Dom!Tim and sub!Jay.
Tim has been Jason's most stable and preferred partner for being regularly put down, but it's always been platonic. In fact, Jason hasn't done a sexual scene in years and years, and the ones he has done haven't really been consensual. But his feelings for Tim have been changing, and he's been thinking about taking that step... only he has no idea how Tim feels about him.
JayDickWeek Day 1: Jealousy/Protectiveness
One of two installments that I'm hoping to get out for my dna verse between this event and OJTW (if I don't finish them in time for JDW). This one is set probably a month or two into the pregnancy, and Dick has gotten weird about letting Jason leave the apartment "because Bludhaven is so unsafe, and I just can’t stand you going out like this, Jay. I’m sorry, my instincts are just going haywire with wanting to keep you both safe." Finally, he caves and agrees to a weekend at the Manor to appease Jason.
But then he gets jealous when Jason lets Damian nurse from him, which kind of sets up the second story I want to write.
JayDickWeek Day 4: A/O/B
The second dna verse fic I'm working on. This one is likely to be much longer, so I'm worried about time constraints. It follows probably less than a month after the one I just talked about, and is essentially just Dick's not-so-slow descent into being That Kind of Alpha. You know, the kind he promised he'd never be? Yeah.
JayDickWeek Day 5: Never Adopted
Jason is a college-aged Omega, who was attacked by a serial killer who has been raping and murdering male Omegas. He manages to kill the Alpha in self-defense before he's murdered (but after he's been raped), and it's Nightwing who finds him. Dick finds out it's not the first time he's saved Jason and that Jason grew up in a boys' home run by the Martha Wayne Foundation. He takes an interest, initially as Nightwing, checking in and making sure Jason's okay, etc.
Then he starts showing up as Dick, and I'm looking forward to playing with identity issues. Can't wait for Jason to go to Nightwing and confide how he's scared that he has a stalker and that that stalker is Dick Grayson. Also thinking about making him a med student and having him be friendly with Steph/having Dick ask Steph to befriend him because he’s just so worried about this poor, traumatized, packless Omega.
JayDicksequel
The mythical sequel to my JayDick pet play fic that I've been insisting will exist for far too long now. Theoretically, it's supposed to be their first attempt at a 24-hour scene. Or, well. 24-hours, less vigilante time.
OJTW Day 2: Ra'sJay Sequel
A follow-up to the Ra'sJay thing I wrote during kinkmas. It's a 4 + 1 of Jason's heats, with the +1 being the truth about the heat where Ra's claimed him.
OJTW Day 7: Incest Kink
Probably going to use this to write a JayDick thing that's been Haunting me. It's pretty heavy on both breeding and incest kink. Hopefully I can keep this one on the shorter side, because it should just be a single sex scene. I just want to write Dick talking about breeding Jason until his womb breaks and then keeping him around to be their pups' practice omega 🥺
ra'sjaytim aob thing
Something I've been picking at for a while and am now hoping to finish in time for Day 6 of Ra'sBat Week. Basically, it's set post RHATO 25, except Roy never saved Jason and, instead, Batman left him on the streets, outside city limits, while he was going into a critical heat from the beating/breaking pack bonds. Jay chose calling in the League over death or being raped and mated by whatever random Alpha(s) caught his scent or stumbled across him, even though he knew what it likely meant for him.
That's the backstory, though. The fic itself is the Batfam finding out about all this after Tim is assigned to look into rumours about there being a new Heir to The Demon. Tim, in particular, is livid, because Bruce had led him to believe that he was keeping tabs on Jason when he wasn't. Naturally, Bruce insists on showing up to take the child so Ra's can't abuse it like he did Damian, and Jason makes a counter-offer to Tim, half-inviting/half-begging Tim to stay, to be his and Ra's' beta. To help Jay raise his pups, to help Jay /protect/ his pups...
sounds so sweet, ch. 2
More JayKyle smut. Moving to the bedroom. Rough sex. Paddling. Probably some lantern constructs as sex toys. Putting Jay down deeply enough for him to rest well, and then Kyle staying awake to watch over him and wait up for Roy to confront him, which will be chapter 3.
edge of a knife, ch. 4
The final chapter of my fem!Dick kinkmeme fill. I know for sure that it starts with Dick going back to Gotham so she can go to Leslie's clinic for the morning after pill, but there are two very different ways that I've considered ending it, and I can't decide which way I want it to go - either she goes to Bruce and confides in him about what happened... or she goes back to the Tower.
Just tagging whoever feels like doing it, tbh. If you have wips, pls do it. I'm nosy 🤣

Journal entry (#25) ~
Today was just a rest day in Vegas. My dad and i had a fun time gambling and eating some good food. Vegas is one of my favorite cities so really awesome to spend time here. We are driving to Arizona tomorrow and should be in Texas by Thursday in the late afternoon.
(4/20/21)
1. How were your emotions today?
they were a whole lot better than yesterday. I did a small workout this morning so my energy was boosted and so was my self esteem. I overall felt really good. My dad and i gambled and spent time together. I won like $55! I’m going to save it so my nerdy ass can buy Pokemon Snap for my switch xD (really excited for that game, lol)
I also reconnected with an old internet friend who is living in Texas too. I wanna plan to meet up with her so we can finally meet face to face after so many years. I made a friendship post on my main blog and ugh just seeing everyone in the photos makes me so happy 🥰 it doesn’t matter what difficult things i may go through, i will always have my friends there to support me :)
2. Did you have any lingering thoughts?
I mean, here and there i thought about R but nothing that would make me super upset. Him and i talked a little today, not too much. He was busy doing his thing as always. I guess when i see couples walking around all happy... makes me a tad jealous and a little sad. I start thinking about R and how that could be us or how that WAS us at a certain point.
I, again, don’t know what the future has in store. It is still uncertain. I can’t be super optimistic nor completely pessimistic. Its more like, what ever happens happens (thats starting to be a repeated thing). We can’t force ourselves to try to work on our relationship when he is struggling and i’m still figuring out myself too. I mean together, we made a good couple. We understood each other. Cared deeply for one another and both felt that instant connection when we first met. Its still super hard for me to accept that this is where we are right now. That we have to be apart. I think we are both feeling pain from the breakup... we just try to not talk about it too much.
I don’t know. Just trying to keep my head up while continuing to be a good friend to him.
3. Was there anything, big or small, that upset you today?
Not really. I was pretty mellow today.
Only thing was my stomach was hurting and smelled TOO much weed today... i know its 4/20 but damn lol
4. What activities did you do to destress?
Walked around Fremont Street and gambled a little. I still want my moijito so i’m sad i didn’t get one 😢
But doing these activities really helped me not think too much so i’m happy about that.
5. What still worries you?
Nothing that i have already talked about. Its still the same thing but i’m trying not to put all my energy into thinking too much into it. Doing that just makes my overall mental and physical health plummet and i don’t want to do that.
6. Did you work on your mental health books/worksheets?
I did! I did them before i started writing this 🙂
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall, good vibes today. I’m ready to hit the road with my dad for another 8 hours. We are almost there and i’m ready to get back home. I know i gotta start de cluttering and throwing/giving away stuff. I want a whole new set of stuff for myself and my apartment. I also am going to look into two jobs back home and if i don’t get anything back from them, i’m going to focus my time on Instacart. Things are looking up and i know whatever happens with R, as long as i have ME, things will be okay 👍🏼

Yi! I am the anon who requested 16 and 77. You could do angst but with a happy ending?
Hi Anon! I did it! Finally xD sorry you had to wait so long. I might have more time on my hands but that doesn’t mean I always spend it wisely, or that my brain wants to cooperate when I tell it to make a story. 
Man, I really love this prompt. You picked a gooden. I won’t officially pair it with prompt 16 because I’ve already used that number (though I did add a kiss in it for you ;))
Warning for mentions of suicide (no one named, no details, just mentioned).
I hope you like it ^_^
I’ve now done prompts for: #1, #2, #4 and #16, #9, #10, #77, #78, #170 and #502
I also have 3 prompts waiting for: #20, #33 and an addition to #170 so if you send me a new one in be prepared to wait a while!
77. You just stood there and held me, then you started dancin’ slow. And as I pulled you tighter I swore I’d never let you go. (Point Blank)
Sam and Dean had been gone for almost two weeks now. Cas wasn’t worried, they checked in on a daily basis with updates and requests for lore and questions about how Jack was settling back in so he knew they were okay. They were hunting something with some kind of mind altering tendencies, whether a djinn, wraith, witch or something else was yet to be determined but it had killed six people. The victims had complained of nightmares a few days before their deaths. Suicides, all of them, and not clean. The thing was proving difficult to track down, it didn’t seem to have a preference of victims, man or woman, old or young. Different ethnicities and social circles, there didn’t seem to be anything that linked them. Cas could sense their frustration, but no, he wasn’t worried.
He did miss them however, especially Dean. Jack was good company; they played board games and Cas taught him some of the basics of fighting with a blade, just in case he was ever faced with an enemy while he couldn’t use his powers. They watched Netflix together, the brightly-coloured modern cartoons that Sam and Dean scoffed at and Jack asked him questions about angels and monsters and lore of all kinds, but there was always a certain level of separation to it, in the way he understood that there had to be between parents and their children and there were less jokes than when the Winchesters were around, less laughter. Cas wasn’t very good at jokes. His dry humour would sometimes get a snort or a small chuckle, but that was the extent of it. He didn’t have Dean’s ability to goof around and act the fool, nor did he have Sam’s quick tact in knowing where to poke to cause a laugh rather than offence. Jack wasn’t very good at jokes either though, so they rubbed along quite well together.
It was on the twelfth morning that Sam called for the second time that day and when Cas looked at the phone he knew something had gone wrong.
“What happened?” He demanded without preamble.
“Dean had a nightmare.” Sam’s voice was tight and worried, “A bad one.”
Cas frowned. “That’s not too unusual. Unless you think…”
“The thing got him. Yeah.”
“So you have… what? Less than two days until he becomes a suicide risk?”
“Yeah.”
Cas clenched his jaw, reached his free hand up to rub at the bridge of his nose.
“You’re not far away, I can be there-”
“No,” Sam said firmly. “I don’t want Jack anywhere near this thing and you can’t leave him alone right now. You need to stay where you are. We’ll figure this out.”
“But-”
“I know,” Sam said, and he really did sound apologetic. “Trust me, I’d rather have you here too. But we have Jack to look after and I’m not actually sure you coming here would help Dean. I mentioned you before and he just kind of… froze up.”
“He did?” Cas frowned at the far wall, that didn’t make any sense.
“Yeah. And he got this look… I think his nightmare was about you, or had you in it or something. Of course, I don’t know because he won’t talk to me but… It might be best you stay away for now. I’ll keep you posted.”
Cas sighed, biting down on his instinct to run to the garage and grab a set of keys. With his failing grace there was no guarantee he’d be able to do something so complex as break a curse or purge a venom or completely undo a biological reaction#. There were certain intricacies involved and he wasn’t certain he had the strength. The brothers could still fix this on their own, they still had time.
“Alright.” He conceded. “I’ll give you forty-eight hours. But after that I’m coming to meet you. I can’t just sit here and wait for that call.” His voice wobbled a little at the end as his imagination ran wild. But it wasn’t just the thought of Dean taking his own life that terrified him… selfishly it was the idea that Cas needed to see him again, that he couldn’t let the last memory he had of Dean be one where he’d walked away.
“That’s fair.” Sam agreed, and Cas could picture him running a hand through his hair, the way he did when he was stressed and worried. “But it won’t be needed. We’ll fix this. We’ll kill the thing and it’ll be fine.”
“Get Dean to make a list of everyone he met or bumped into yesterday,” Cas said in lieu of something reassuring. He had complete faith in the brothers, knew that they were more than capable hunters, that Sam at least would do whatever it took to save Dean, but there was still a tiny kernel in his brain that whispered what if he can’t this time, and Cas knew that it wouldn’t go away until the danger had passed.
The rest of the phone call was tense and perfunctory, but once he hung up, not being able to hear Sam’s concern actually alleviated his own. The danger wasn’t immediate yet and he trusted them to find a solution fast.
Xxx
It took them until the next morning. Cas was sitting with Jack and they were talking over bowls of cereal with the kind of sugar content that always made Sam purse his lips. Jack hadn’t seemed overly concerned about Dean when Cas told him what had happened; apparently he had the same confidence in the Winchesters that Cas did, and his surety was comforting.
The phone rang and even though Cas was sure nothing was wrong, that this was just Sam’s daily update on the situation, his spoon went clattering back into the bowl, splattering milk everywhere as he jumped to answer it.
“Sam?” He said. His voice did not tremble.
“We got it.” Sam’s voice was pure relief. “Witch. We’ll be back in a couple hours.”
Cas sighed heavy and cleansing. The expression on his face must have told Jack everything he needed to know because he smiled, gave a thumbs up and went back to his cereal.
“I’m glad,” Cas said. “Dean’s alright?”
“Yeah, the curse has broken.” Sam hesitated then, and his voice dropped like Dean was close by and he didn’t want him to overhear. “But it was real tough on him. Sent him into some kind of waking nightmare. Screaming fit, something. So he might not want to celebrate or anything when we get back.”
Which was code for ‘don’t be offended if Dean locks himself in his room for the next three days.’
“Of course. It’ll just be good to have you home. See you soon, Sam.”
“Bye, Cas.”
Cas placed the phone down and smiled as Jack munched on his cereal.
“They’re heading back. They should be here by noon.”
“Cool,” Jack said around his spoon. “I’m glad Dean’s okay.”
“Me too,” Cas agreed.
“I mean… I wasn’t exactly worried,” Jack continued, a slight furrow in his brow. “Is that wrong? I don’t know if it’s because of my soul or if I just knew they’d make it back.”
“The Winchesters do have an excellent record for making it through these kinds of situations,” Cas said carefully. “It’s not wrong to expect them to always make it back. It’s easy to feel like the danger isn’t real when we have all faced so much worse than a rogue witch. But many experienced hunters get killed on routine cases. The danger is always real, sometimes it’s just a matter of luck.”
“Or a matter of having your lives written out by God,” Jack said, a slight quirk to his mouth that Cas couldn’t help but mirror.
“Yes. I suppose knowing that Chuck has a specific plan for them makes it easier,” he said. “Knowing Him, if Sam or Dean dies on an ordinary case He’ll just resurrect them until they can play out His story. Or at least, their own story. They’ve never been good at following rules.”
Xxx
It had just gone midday when the door of the bunker clanged loudly, indicating the return of the brothers. Cas hurried to the war room to meet them. It was silly perhaps but he wanted to see Dean for himself, to make sure that he was alright. Dean shuffled behind Sam, his head down. He looked pale and wan, like he often did after the kind of nightmare that drew Cas into his room to try and soothe away. Clearly, whatever the witch had done to him was going to take more than a gas station burrito and a drive in the impala to get over. Sam looked like he needed a hot shower and a long nap. He nodded to Cas as he passed, clapping him on the shoulder. When Dean caught sight of him though he stopped halfway through a step. He seemed to forget that he was walking and began to tip forwards. Concerned, Cas stepped in to catch him and found himself with Dean’s arms around his neck and Dean’s smell in his nose and Dean’s mouth on his and his whole existence narrowed to just Dean, Dean, Dean.
Thoroughly overwhelmed by the whole situation, Cas decided that his best course of action was not to move so he stood there stiffly until Dean pulled back, only to bury his face in Cas’ shoulder instead and, in a move more terrifying than the wrath of God, began to sob.
“I killed you.” Dean’s voice was tiny and broken, barely audible, even to his ears. “I killed you and you let me and I had to burn you all over again.”
Cas didn’t know what to say. What would be the point in telling Dean that it was just a bad dream brought on by a curse? That it wasn’t real? Dean knew that, just as Cas had known that the room full of Deans that Naomi had made him kill weren’t real. That didn’t make the guilt any easier to carry. So instead he said nothing, raising his arms to fold them around Dean’s back, pulling him closer.
“I felt it,” Dean muttered against his neck. “It was so real. I had to, I just knew that I had to. But I don’t know why, and it doesn’t matter. I don’t care what happens, I know that I can’t do that again. I don’t care if the world burns.”
“I love you.” Cas whispered back, because for the first time it needed to be said. It had existed in the in-between spaces of their lives, of course, their love. Cas knew that Dean felt it too, knew it probably before Dean himself had accepted it. But Cas had let it exist without acknowledgement. He didn’t need a declaration and Dean wasn’t ready to make one. The feeling was enough.
Dean didn’t say it back, but Cas felt it in the way he clung on tighter, his fingers digging into his shoulder blades even through his trenchcoat and shirt. So Cas said it again, and again, his words the song forever playing in his mind, a symphony of feeling. So he began to rock Dean along to the sound, soothing and slow, patient and endless, and it was almost dancing, he thought, tightening his own hold. And as he did so, he knew that be it forty more years or four more minutes, Castiel would be content if he got to spend them holding Dean.

100 word meme
hiii, so I’ve been wanting to try this for a while since it seems to work out really well for @veliseraptor and i feel like it’d work out well for me too? so gonna give it a shot
rules are you vote for a fic and i write 100 words in it. so basically if u want a fic posted faster, vote for it, because a vote means i’ll actually work on it (hopefully XD). it’s mostly just a helpful way for me to have tangible goals that i can work toward without having to make decisions about what those goals are myself XD
[edit: oh yeah you can vote for up to 3]
so without further ado, here’s the list (as is traditional, with bonus excerpts as a reward for helping me with executive brain functions lmfao):
1. (Figment of Choice) [tw grandthorki shenanigans]
“Oh, but dear, if I had known it’d be like this, I would have had you change ages ago. You’re simply beautiful!” He smiled and ran the ends of his fingers down Loki’s jaw.  
Loki resisted the urge to bite them. Monster, he thought. Tears gathered in his eyes. “Please,” he begged. “Please don’t do this to me—”
“Loki, we’ve talked about this.” The Grandmaster made a disapproving clicking noise with his tongue. “Yesterday even. Didn’t I specifically tell your brother how I prefer those who are willing. Those who enjoy what Sakaar has to offer. What I have to offer. Are you telling me you’re not one of those people?”
“Yes,” Loki said by habit; then, “I mean, no—no, I am, I just—I don’t think—I can’t—”
“Shhh,” the Grandmaster said. “You know how much I hate hearing don’t and can’t. Come along, sweetheart, get up. As lovely as you are, I’m not only here for you. Time’s a’ticking.”
2. (The troy and lola story of my soul) [tw implied noncon/dubcon and csa]
Troy watched his friend disappear into his carriage, and then he watched a butterfly trail from flower to flower, and then he watched the sun approach the white mountains in the distance. His legs ached with the strain of standing as he watched, but he didn’t move. Moving would mean admitting the fact that his twin had been suffering for years. Suffering the same torment he himself had escaped. Moving would mean having to face the fact that his brother (sister?) might resent him. 
As he stood, he tried—he focused his entire mind upon an imagined woman lying nude in the lounge of a brothel. He tried to feel what she felt. He tried to feel the weight of a body on top of his or the repetitive aching of his insides. He tried to feel the unbearable numbness infecting his limbs with cold. But there was nothing, no sense of life from his twin. Nothing except the ghosts of his own memories.
“My Lord,” Margaret called from the patio, “won’t you come inside?”
Troy sighed but didn’t turn. “You know to call me Theodore.”
“It’s cold out here,” Margaret said as if she hadn’t heard. “At least let me fetch your cloak.”
Troy didn’t answer, and a moment later, he heard the door bang shut. He waited a bit longer. For what? He didn’t know. But then the crickets started chirping, and the chill of nighttime wind raised goosebumps on his arms, and he managed to stomach his fear and turn to face the house.
3. (Forget Me Not, Remember Still) [tw domestic abuse, grandthorki shenanigans]
“You look so sad,” Thor said, and Loki hated that his voice sounded at all like the Grandmaster’s. “What’s bothering you?”
Unsure whether it was safe to answer, Loki pressed his lips together.
“Tell me,” Thor said, just as gently, but—Loki could sense the difference in his patience.
He took a breath. “It’s nothing,” he said.
“It’s something,” Thor argued. “Now tell me—or do I have to remind you what happens when you try to think for yourself.”
Loki steeled himself against a flinch. Almost subconsciously, his hand came up and his fingers pressed against the bruises at his neck. The shirt he’d wanted to wear would have covered them, but this—it exposed him. It made him look weak, like a victim—and truly, was he not a victim now? Was he not being abused?
Wincing, he looked away from the mirror before the sight of himself could make him cry.
“Oh, Loki,” Thor said. “You’ve made some mistakes. All those marks show is that you’ve learned better. They’re nothing to be ashamed of.”
To you, Loki thought, and then shut the thought off. 
4. (On Our Terms) [tw grandthorki shenanigans]
The Grandmaster sighed loudly. “I don’t mean to offend you, but your society sounds quite borish.”
“It is,” the Valkyrie said, “but it’s the one we got, and I doubt you have room for three thousand potentially borish people here, so . . .”
“Yes, yes, your point has been made,” the Grandmaster said. “But you see—I’ve grown quite fond of these two, and I’m not quite sure if I want to let them go. Especially since they seem so eager to stay.”
“Yeah, I get it. So what’s your price?” she asked in a casual tone.
“My price? Goodness, gracious! I’m not the type to just sell these poor boys to the highest bidder. My dear dear 142, you should know better than to suggest such a thing! Absolutely unbelievable.”
There was a silence. Loki held his breath, closed his eyes, and tried not to think. Whatever happened, it wouldn’t matter what he did. It wouldn’t matter what he said. In fact, it might make things worse if he spoke, and things were already bad enough. The best he could do was keep silent and be good and just . . . wait. Wait to be dragged back into their nightmare.
Under the table, Thor’s free hand slipped around his and squeezed. Loki was numb, too numb, to care. He didn’t squeeze back.
At last, the Grandmaster gave a long put-upon sigh. “I suppose, I might be more . . . favorable to your wishes if you were to, hmm. Play a game with me.”
The Valkyrie shifted in her seat. “What kind of game?”
5. (thor ficlet whumptober chapter 4) [tw past noncon]
With a deep breath, Thor slipped on a robe over his nightshirt and pants (he no longer slept without a shirt), and headed toward the door. There was one person, in all of Asgard, besides her, who knew. His brother had every right to be angry. Even now, Thor remembered the things he had said the night before—before—and those had been his own words, not hers.
As he came to the door, feeling small and afraid, he remembered the morning after. How Loki had begged him for an apology and had not received one. How Thor had stood on the other side, unable to be anything but callous and cold. Their positions were reversed now. Thor prayed his brother would be more kind.
Trembling, he knocked.
Loki answered the door, not a minute later, robed in black and green, hair curly and disheveled. “Yes?” he said as he rubbed his eyes—and then, before Thor could answer, his face smoothed and his eyebrows furrowed low and angry on his face. “Did she try something again?”
“No,” Thor rushed to say, but Loki’s expression didn’t soften. Cheeks aflame, Thor fixed his gaze on the golden stone archway of the door and studied its numerous ridges and cracks. “I can’t—sleep,” he managed. “That—bed—” His throat felt hoarse. He returned his gaze to his brother and tried not to let the desperation seep into his voice. “I’m afraid to sleep alone.”
6. (IW AU thor whump) [tw violence]
“Let me make this clear,” Thor said. He ripped a strip of cloth free from his cape and toyed with it between his hands. “I follow the doctrine of my master because it’s what I believe. But even if I didn’t? Even if you somehow managed to convince me otherwise?” Thor lifted the red cloth and pressed it between the bones of her jaw. “I would follow him anyway. There is not one single thing you could say to dissuade me from his offer, universe be damned.” He tied the cloth in a knot on the back of her head. “Do you understand?”
Eyes blazing, Gamora kneed him in the thigh.
Thor stumbled. His heart sped, as he realized she’d been aiming for his crotch, and in a burst of rage, his hand clenched into a fist and raised in the air—trembling and white-knuckled and desperate to hit her back. 
He didn’t do it.
There was something in her face that sparked a memory in him—one of Loki, handcuffed and bright-eyed and braced for a blow on the Asgardian skiff. The time they’d gone to avenge a mother who had left them alone too soon. The time Loki (seemed to have) died. For a shocking moment, the woman in front of Thor looked just like his brother. From the the tension in her shoulders, to the set in her lips, and to the glassiness of her wide eyes.
He lowered his fist. Grief cascaded over him, and it weighed like bricks on his chest and needles in his heart. In a count to ten, Thor reminded himself of the doctrine and of Thanos’s offer—the gauntlet, with all five Infinity Stones, would resurrect his brother. This woman—this traitor—couldn’t. The choice was easy.
 “Get some rest,” he said, numb and cold. “Xandar is several hours away.”
7. (Zombie Post Apoc Novel) [tw grosss vagina shit, implied noncon]
At night, Helen catches her in the bathroom. The door is cracked open, and Cassandra is standing, one foot planted on the tub’s ledge and the other foot on the floor. Her hand is between her thighs and she’s holding the lighter under her clit, until the air sizzles with the smell of burnt flesh. She comes like that. Helen knows because tears leak from Cassandra’s face whenever her orgasm is real.
“I’m sorry,” Cassandra whispers when she notices Helen watching. “I have to.”
And Helen doesn’t bother arguing. Larry may dead, but there are countless Larry’s, and even if there aren’t, Andrew hovers in their room sleeping on their bed. Something has to burn. So Helen just closes the door behind her, turns on the vent to clear the smell, and grabs Neosporin from a drawer under the sink.
Cassandra sits on the bathtub ledge. “Maybe we should stay,” she whispers. “Maybe it really is better here.”
Helen kneels on the bathroom tile. “You’re gonna kill yourself if we stay here, babe.” Then she rubs the Neosporin over the folds of her sister’s vagina, and when the burns are good and treated, tears of ecstasy leak down Cassandra’s face.
In the silence that follows, Cassandra bites her lip. “If it comes to it… I don’t know that I could pull the trigger.”
“You can,” Helen says. “Just pretend you’re holding a lighter.”

Cat’s 2020 Goals: January Progress
So, at the beginning of the month, I posted my 10 goals for 2020, and I wanted to share a little progress update on how I did in January. Long story short: I skated by. I didn’t get to accomplish everything that I wanted, but life unfortunately happens. I set my goals low for this very reason because I know when life tends to get hectic (which I knew in the early months of this year it would be) I tend to get caught up in it and make excuses, so setting lowball goals gives me no real excuse not to accomplish them. So, let’s see how I really did.
Goal 1: Read at least two books a month
I actually accomplished this one! I read Heist Society and I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You both by Ally Carter. This is kind of a technicality since I have read both of them before, but to ease myself back into reading, I started with stories I know I already love. My ultimate goal is to read 1 new book a month, and 1 old book I love. One as a cushion to guarantee that I’ll like what I read and won’t get burnt out, and one to push myself into new territory. 
Goal 2: Buy 2 new books every month
I did that last month very early on as well, I actually bought 3 new books last month, and I’m going to get up after this and go run errands and buy two more new books (and a bookmark so I can stop using random objects and sticky notes). Last month I bought The Gathering by Kelley Armstrong (an author I’ve read before), Sea Witch, and Sea Witch Rising both by Sarah Henning (an author I haven’t read before). So I’m planning to read some of those this month as part of branching out into new book land. 
Goal 3: Finish a fanfic wip every month
I barely skated by with this one, which I have a feeling this one will be my most challenging goal. I get off on a technicality for this one for January because I technically finished TFR last night while it was still January, but I didn’t post it until this morning. But for my self-esteem so early on in the year, I’ll give myself a silver star for this one and say I accomplished it even if TFR wasn’t the fic I planned to finish last month.
Goal 4: Finish 2 WIPs before starting something new (outside of one-shots)
I blame this one for why the previous one was so difficult for that little addition in parenthesis. Because I haven’t started a new multi-chapter project (not really anyway) so I have kept my word, but I did take on a bunch of drabble requests and one-shots last month that took up time and were part of the reason I didn’t get to finish WYBM(F)L? last month like I wanted, but I don’t really regret them cause they were fun and needed. This just goes to show what a piece of shit I am, cause I will ride a technicality for all it’s worth, even unconsciously. 
The other goals following this one are more long term, but an update on goal 10: Cook more, I would say I made baby amounts of progress on that front. I still eat out a lot, but I did cook more than I usually do in the past month, so I will try to keep that trend going. 
I did also start working on something original last month, but I wrote less than 1000 words which is fine for now. I still have the rest of the year, and I’m sure as I read more, I’ll get inspired to write more original work stuff. 
So, yeah. This post is more for me than for any of you, cause I doubt many of you care, but if you’re curious about what I’m reading and want some book reccs, I’ll continue to do these updates every month. I might make a sideblog actually and do soft book reviews of things that I’m reading and keep up with a lot of this stuff there, so if I do that, I’ll share it so those that are interested can hop over and it will unclog this blog. I just need somewhere to dump my thoughts, and posting things publicly makes me feel a bit more accountable for accomplishing them cause I am the master of “eh, this doesn’t really matter in the long run” and continuing on with my comfortable habits. Putting them into the universe shames me into doing things, even if no one is actually shaming me to do them. It’s the principle of it that gets me. Sorry if this is boring to you. I’ll get back to shitposting XD

I’m back from Korea
I feel like October didn’t happen at all .. but at the same time, it happened & it happened too quickly =/
I was away for 2.5 weeks in Korea, & then when I came back, it was a mini series of night shifts so I practically did nothing. .. & by the time I realized it, it was Halloween & I was working evening shifts so I didn’t go out. O_O it has been 1 crazy month. But November is here now, & things are returning back to normal: my vacation withdrawal is over, & I have some “normal” combo of shifts, & it’s time to say bye-bye to the hot weather. It’s gonna be great~
Tumblr media
Okay, let’s be real: I’m never “over” a Korea trip lol the other day, I was really craving that budae jjigae. The struggle was real. So I made it for lunch ^^
For my 1st return post, I’ve decided to keep things simple & just share a brief summary of my 2.5 week-long trip with you!
Day 1-4: I stayed at my usual Seoul home, Namsan Hill Hotel. I was unable to book a longer stay at this place =( These 1st few days, I revisited some places in Seoul: Namdaemun (for hand-cut noodles called “kalguksu”); Sinchon/Ewha Womens Univ area/Hongik Univ area for shopping & ; Gyeongbokgung area for Tongin Market & some art museums; Insadong/Samcheongdong/Bukchon Hanok Village for some relaxing strolls around traditional Korean housing. Some new places I went to include:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- a cafe called “Kopi Han-yak-bang” (lit. trans.: “coffee Korean pharmacy”). Look it up! It’s super cool! The owner believes coffee has a healing power, just like traditional herbal medicine, so the cafe is like a vintage herbal medicine shop/pharmacy. It feels as if you’re entering a movie set rather than a cafe.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- The Skyfarm for brunch! Pretty place with amazing view of Seoul.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Seongsu area for industrial warehouse cafes. It was a valuable & memorable experience bcos Seongsu used to be an area for large factories (making of leather products & shoes, & car-fixing shops), but it’s revitalizing & the large factory spaces are now being converted to hip coffeeshops. Many of which do collabs with local/emerging artists & fashion designers so there’s lots of artsy things to see in these coffeeshops.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Seoul Forest. There’s like a picnic area, some basketball & tennis courts, walking trails, etc. .. I had a convenience store goods dinner in the picnic area, & watched the sunset there.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Day 5-8: I moved over to Savoy Hotel located in the heart of Myeongdong. It’s ~15min walk away from Namsan Hill Hotel. Great location but also quite loud. My options were slim when I was booking stuff, & I needed to stay close to Seoul Station bcos I arranged 4x 1-day trips! I didn’t realize it at first but then I was like, “I have 4 back-to-back day trips right now.” I was essentially out every day from like 0700h to 2100h.
Trip 1: Paju~ for Heyri Art Village & Provence. I have been to these places before & really liked it so I went back, esp Heyri Art Village. After the day trip, I met up with 2 of my coworkers for K-BBQ in the Hapjeong area.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trip 2: Jeonju~ I only went to 1 place in Jeonju & that was the Jeonju Hanok Village. It was raining all day that day. However, it was still very enjoyable. The village was a beautiful place, & under the rain, it looked even more picturesque.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trip 3: Incheon~ for Incheon Chinatown & Wolmido, which is an island connected to Incheon via a highway. Due to its close proximity to China, Incheon became a major port for trades back in the day, & the Chinese immigrants basically settled here, hence it’s the largest Chinatown in Korea. I met up with my friend Ji Yoon in Chinatown & we spent some time catching up.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trip 4: Gangneung~ For the annual Gangneung Coffee Festival; its title was “Voices of Coffee” this year! It was held at the Gangneung Olympic Ice Arena. I can’t recall how many shots of coffee samples I had that day, but it was a lot. I also went to the Anmok Coffee Street, which is a line of cafes along Anmok Beach - all the cafes face the beach so the view is pretty. Even more so on the day I went bcos it was cloudy =]
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Day 9: remained in Seoul today. Went to the Seoul Botanic Garden, which opened its doors in May 2019. Very pretty displays~ Huuuuuge space too. It was like Telus World x Muttart Conservatory x Devonian Botanic Garden. Lots to see, & if you go, allot more time for yourself here. & then in the evening, I camped out by Yeouido Hangang Park for the annual Seoul International Fireworks Festival, which was named “Life is Colourful” this year. So many ppl! I was expecting that before going but it was beyond my imagination. It was truly an experience- the streets were blocked off for pedestrian traffic & literally, it took like 10mins to move 5meters after the show as over! Then at the subway station nearby, there was a bottleneck, where apparently the capacity inside the underground station was reached so we needed to wait outside the exit.. . still, it was fun!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Day 10-12: 1 way train ticket to Busan. Yes, train to Busan ;) I was safe though hehe Busan was beautiful! In hindsight, I should’ve spent more time here but . .. NEXT TIME! I went to BIFF Square & Gukje Market, which was like across from my hotel, Stanford Inn Busan. Gamcheon Cultural Village was super cute; although I would hate being a resident there =/ The Busan Int’l Film Festival was happening then, & I visited the Expo & Convention Centre for the film market. Can’t go into the exhibition, but that whole area was filled with ads/posters of BIFF - it was a big deal! It was cool to witness such a big event & to experience the sheer scale of it. I then went to Shinsegae Centum City, which is the largest shopping complex in the world.  Haeundae Beach was also cool. I went on a cloudy day & it was awesome! That same evening/night, I checked out the Jagalchi Fish Market, which is the largest seafood market in Korea. It has 7 floors total, with 3 underground parking levels :O On the last day, bcos I only had the morning available to do stuff, I had Busan fish cake for breakfast & strolled in BIFF Square again.
*Note: I actually hit all the things on my itinerary EXCEPT for the Busan Museum of Art, which was closed on Mondays =( but the security guy let me in to see the lobby bcos he knew I was a tourist. Thank you!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Day 13-17: Flew from Busan Airport to Jeju Airport. I used more time than needed for the whole process- turned out foreigners have their own line at the Busan Airport, so it’s faster than locals. There’s also a domestic terminal & international terminal, so from arrival to being checked in & through security.. . it took less than 25mins. It was great! In regards to Jeju, I did the following:
- stayed in Jeju City for the arrival afternoon/evening, with my hotel being Astar Hotel. Had a street food dinner at Dongmun Market; they were having this night market/festival event so a bunch of street food stalls were open from 7pm-midnight. Smelled like heaven haha
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- I did my 1st hike ever on Hallasan Mountain, specifically the Gwaneunsa Trail, & I reached the peak. It was.. . hard. I can’t say I particularly enjoyed it; however, it has proven to me that I am a land person, & I belong in museums, cafes, & street walking lol. Look up the details of the trail! Was it ambitious of me to go on this for my 1st hike ever. .. without any hiking gear? I went with what some ppl would consider gym shoes, a hoodie, leggings, & a backpack with water, juice, kimbaps, 2 bananas, 6 mandarins, & some snacks (cheese crisps & pineapple cream-flavoured crackers).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- The day after the hike, my legs were still okay. But it was my glut that was starting to get sore XD I went to Osulloc Tea Museum & Innisfree Jeju House. The aesthetics <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Went to Black Pig Street for black pig bbq. I was hoping a restaurant or two was taking solo-diners & thankfully, the 2nd restaurant I asked did! I ordered pork neck instead of pork belly - it was quite tender & kinda chewy, actually. Later that evening, I went to the Tamra Cultural Festival 2019. It was neat~ There was an outdoor night market, as well as a stage for cultural dance/play/music.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Jeju Island is actually quite small, & it takes approx. an hour from 1 side of the island to the other side. Thus, for my 3rd (full) day, I went to the Jungmun (Jeju City is north of the island; Jungmun is south coast) & visited the Yellow Cafe, Chocolate Land, Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum, & Yeomiji Botanical Garden.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- From Jungmun, I took a local bus to Lee Jong Seop Street in Seogwipo, the next city over. The street is very pleasant & chill, with artwork along the street, coffeeshops & eateries, as well as little gift shops. Totally my thing! It reminds me Bukchon Hanok Village in terms of vibe, but minus the traditional housing look. The Seogwipo Olle Market is nearby, & is a great place to buy Jeju souvenirs. The pricing, I heard/read, is cheaper than Dongmun Market in Jeju City - it is true! There are also less tourists here, which was what made it enjoyable for me, personally.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Only the morning on my last day was free for activities bcos my flight to Seoul was early afternoon. I visited the area around Jeju City Hall, which was ~20min walk from my hotel. It was a very leisurely morning, where I sat down & enjoyed coffee at Coffee Finder & had a build-your-own-ramen bowl at a place nearby. The architecture of Coffee Finder was unique; it used to be a 2-floor house, with like a driveway/sidewalk. But the ummm first floor ceiling/second floor flooring was knocked down so there’s a “hole” in the middle of the cafe. The cafe has very homely vibes as the placement of tables/chairs are in what was (at one point) rooms of the house. It’s open but also you can get some privacy at the same time.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Day 17-18: Back to Seoul, & stayed at Namsan Hill Hotel~ Itaewon is a must! I need to go to Passion 5 every time lol. & I also revisited the Leeum Samsung Museum of Art bcos I like it. & then I had my last day as a “free” day, where I didn’t plan ANYTHING. I’m a very intense planner & when I go on trips, I literally plan to the minute haha & guess what, I ended up in Hongdae. Honestly, it’s my kinda place. Sadly, the transportation situation there isn’t convenient for the rest of my itinerary, or else I would choose a hotel that’s in the vicinity. I nearly spent 2.5 hrs at Coin Su Noraebang haha I realized that if you score high enough, time gets added to your paid time :O I can’t let that go to waste =P
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There ya go, Korea 2019!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
PS: I haven’t decided what/how I’m gonna go about posting my trip. .. There are wayyyy too many photos & it will take me a million yrs to write/upload. Perhaps expect unexpected Korea posts scattered between my regular posts :P I will, however, share with you the coffees I’ve had in Korea. I tried diff ones, from franchise to small local cafes, adventurous flavours & the typical black Americano. I didn’t have any poor experiences but there was 1 particular one that I will likely never order again - tbh, I should’ve expected it but I still went for it anyway *shrugs* so I guess it was all my fault haha ok, I’ll ttyl~!

Oooh boy. Why do I feel like I should go straight to the replies, or else I will start talking about having a crush again? No one cares, I’m annoying, I’m sorry. Yesterday around midnight, I actually caved and told my best friend because I just couldn’t keep my feelings to myself any longer, and I was pleasantly surprised by her reaction. I didn’t want to tell her at first because we kinda tend to turn this kind of stuff into jokes, but I guess she did figure out that this time, it’s serious serious - THERE WE GO I’M OVERSHARING AGAIN I AM AN IDIOT. Anyway did I mention I love her? I don’t deserve her. She’s the best, you guys don’t even know her but I just wanted to give her a little shoutout because damn, thanks for yesterday, I thought I would explode. Also, she has an important exam in a week, so if you could send positive vibes her way, that would be great.
By the time you’re seeing this replies, I think I’m playing with Realm of Magic. I’m so excited! Last time I bought a pack on release day was with Seasons. I’m not sure who I will play this with yet. Maybe with Lucian and his girlfriend. I really hope you can somehow turn an alien into a spellcaster, even if that means he’d no longer be an alien. I don’t mind that. Whoops, hold on, was that a spoiler? Yeah, uh, Lucian is a teenager in my game at the moment, he has a girlfriend and he’s not very alien-y and I don’t care about that. Honestly…when have my aliens ever been alien-y? Miracle was the only one and she hated that (and 2019 Ronnie hates that she hated that but 2017 Ronnie didn’t know any better, long story).
Witches are something I’ve wanted in this game for a long time, so they better be good or else I’ll cry. Next up…I know everyone wants university, and I think we’ll get it, but to be fair, I don’t care about it that much. I’ll be playing university irl so I guess that makes sense. 😂 I would really like something like a band game pack, where you can form a band and have concerts and write music and…just do musician stuff, I guess. I was hoping bands would be added in Get Famous but nah, it was pretty much just acting…which I still haven’t explored. 🤦‍♀️ But yeah, band game pack is like my dream. I’m guessing it could be retro themed too, and have many references to some iconic bands?? Imagine if it was like 70s-80s inspired. Imagine THE HAIR. Did I mention I will defend weird 80s hair until the day I die? Yeah. I would really love that. I’m not saying I think a pack like this will happen, but it would be an absolute dream if it did.
TL;DR: I have a crush, I’m playing Realm of Magic and I want a band themed game pack.
autistichatkid replied to your post “Oh wow guess who’s putting nsb on long lifespan because even though…”
psa: you can use mccc to customize lifespan length!!! i dont like how fast normal goes but long is like. So Long. so i use mccc to make everything just a Lil Longer
I know you can do that, I don’t know how but it’s possible, yes! I’m not sure if I want to go for that though, I mean MCCC breaks with almost every update and knowing me, I would forget to fix my settings every single time. I think I’ll just use ea’s long lifespan and then age up people when I feel like aging them up.
desira-sims replied to your post “hey years ago you said you liked symphonic metal, do you still listen…”
Care to share some of your favorites? I’ve been in a music listening mood but feel in a rut.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your post “hey years ago you said you liked symphonic metal, do you still listen…”
I also don’t listen to e. g. often nowadays and… Their latest album was not my cup of tea except for song or two. And my music preference is now “whatever pleases my ears” even if it will make anyone else’s ear bleed��
Yeah sure, I can share my faves from 2-3 years ago! I’m not saying “from the genre” because I know some of these aren’t that symphonic, at this point it’s all a blur to me, to be fair. Besides, I stopped caring about genres, so…yeah. Just pointing that out so no one comes for me like “how dare you say band xy is that genre”. 
Anyway, 2-3 years ago I really loved Nightwish, Within Temptation and Sonata Arctica, those were like my holy trinity, I would listen to them all the time, every single day. The latest WT album wasn’t really my cup of tea, I like their older stuff way more. SA released a new album last week, I kinda liked it but it wasn’t love at first listen. I’ll have to go back to form an opinion on it. Again, their older stuff is better in my opinion. Nightwish…I don’t know if it’s still going on, but people really liked comparing the three different singers they’ve had, and I don’t know why, I think they’re all amazing in their own way. I believe I’ve read on Instagram that new album is coming next year and I’m so excited for that. I don’t think there’s a Nightwish album I disliked.
I also really liked Delain and…Stratovarius, I think it was called? One summer I also listened to Epica a lot, but then all their songs started sounding the same to me. Sorry to any Epica fans that might be following me 😅 And I’m fairly sure I’m forgetting someone, but I believe there should be playlists on Spotify easy to find.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your post “Updates”
Unfortunately I didn’t manage to create a possible spouse(( but I hope there’ll be other possibilities!XD
And good luck!
There definitely will be! Lately, I kinda hate every sim I create, sooo…I’ll leave that for someone else :D
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your photoset “That morning, when Vanessa was leaving for work, I had a bad feeling….”
I don’t like this!
I didn’t think this would freak people out so much…but it did…and I’m really sorry :D
1o8percent replied to your photoset “Roxanne: Maybe if I go to bed, it’ll just come to me in a dream. I…”
I’ve definitely had story ideas come to me in a dream. I got several ideas for my completed legacy that way, so good luck Roxanne!
When I’m writing something late at night and I get stuck, it actually helps me to turn off the computer and go think about the story in bed. And ta-da, I suddenly get ideas! Some of them get lost as soon as I fall asleep, but usually the right direction stays in my head and I’m ready to pick it up as soon as I sit down to write again.
igglemouse replied to your photoset Roxy, the interaction said “feel tummy”, not “take the baby out of…”
She just can’t wait to meet her new sibling XD
That’s actually terrifying D:
brightlysimming replied to your post “I got a hug from a girl I barely know and now I’m emo, I already love…”
Aa!! That’s so great! I’m happy you had a good time!!
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your post “I got a hug from a girl I barely know and now I’m emo, I already love…”
Congratulations! I hope you’ll have fun there! ��
I’m still not over that last weekend. Everyone was so nice and kind and fun and I loved talking to these people so much, uni will be great with them ;-; 
The best surprise to me was that there was this person, and they would come to me a few times and ask if I wanted to hang out with them away from the drunk crowds?? (we’re Czech, of course 95% of people who went to that trip got drunk in the evening -_- :D) And that was just so nice? I’m not used to people wanting to hang out with me. Also, we had great time together, if they called now I would quit everything to hang out with them :D
I’m about to start crying again. To all you lonely people struggling out there, trust me, it gets better, you’re not always going to be lonely and miserable. I thought that would be my case, but nope, things are starting to look better. And they will eventually start looking better for you too, I just know it. Don’t give up <3

1 & 4 are ��
I think it’s official, we’ll be chopping Sunset’s hair off, yay!

School and real life comes first, but I’ll be excited to see these simmies pop up when the time comes. ��
So am I! I’m not sure what to do right now. I want to play RoM, but when I come back to my NSB…do I finish Sunset’s generation requirements first, or do I just slowly start throwing these teens in? Kind of like I started working on Ross’s aspiration when it was technically still the Mint gen. Eh, I’ll figure it out.

have to get up at 5:30 for a next month. feel your pain..
That’s not great D: I think I’d have to do that too, if I wasn’t moving to a dorm in Prague later this month. Spending so much time on the train and having to wake up so early would kill me.
elisabettasims replied to your post “Ahh, of course. I kinda forgot that I would get tan in summer, today I…”
I feel this on a personal level.
I kinda never had to deal with this before because I’ve been using foundation only for a year or so. And I’m fairly sure I’m using a lighter one now, because I definitely didn’t feel like a vampire last September :D

talia you might be safe this time but you definitely should NOT be thinking you have nothing to worry about after… Earlier
I hate how this turned out D: I’ve noticed that sims in my game aren’t fond of the “enthuse about…” interactions. And then it ruins things like this.

Don’t boast too much, love!
She’s really doing great though! Maybe she didn’t make the best first impression, but she’s been working really hard ever since.

What’s the name of the song? I love everything connected to fireXD
It’s “We Didn’t Start The Fire” by Billy Joel! Warning: It’s super catchy.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your photoset “I absolutely fell in love with these cute pants some time ago but I…”
I think I will overuse these pants now:D So thank you for introducing them in the first place:D And for shoutout!
I was glad to help! And… I remember those girls!
Thank youuu! I’m a “high waisted everything” kinda girl, so of course I had to recolour these so I could use them even more often. And I’m glad that I’m not the only one, I mean, the reblogs and likes on this post are insane.
And yay, glad you remember them! Juliet and Amber were easier to recognize, I guess, but the other two, Lily and Lavender…I haven’t posted them too much, ever. I forgot how pretty they were *-* I will definitely use them as my models for recolours and stuff.

I like your ideas for him though
Thank you so much! I’ve been seeing him on my dash a lot lately, so it’s kinda weird seeing like three different versions of him at once, especially when someone makes him do things my version of him would never do :D

I’m intrigued by the last one.
desira-sims replied to your photoset “There you go…some gen 3 moments with no context. Good luck figuring…”
I don’t approve of the second one. No tears! I’ll gladly take more of the 4th and get the feeling she’s a little tired of seeing it all the time. Fire is also bad, but I guess the conversation was to good to stop. And that last one. Oh that’s great.
dandylion240 replied to your photoset “There you go…some gen 3 moments with no context. Good luck figuring…”
Why is Ross crying? Nothing better have happened to Caleb
*evil laughter*
I love how you guys assume the worst. I mean, I’m not surprised. I tend to accidentally kill my sims a lot this year. Well, you’ll find out very soon what is actually going on in these!
Also, just a side note, that child in picture #4 is Lucian and he’s not a girl, but I will admit he looks like one (and I’m fairly sure he knows that too and is okay with that, I mean, if he didn’t want to look like that, he’d beg for a haircut), so no worries. Just throwing it out there.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your post “Oh, try to do Salim Benali!”
Aw he looks adorable! It makes me love him even more,
elisabettasims replied to your post “Oh, try to do Salim Benali!”
Salim is hard because he’s already pretty good looking, etc. He’s the dad of one of my sims who I did a BC with and founded my legacy on her, LOL(Anissa Hoffmann, she has her mom’s last name). Though I guess REALLY Salim and her mother are the founders but, I didn’t start a legacy until after her BC.
I agree, he’s definitely one of the few miracle townies who don’t need fixing.
Also, thank you!
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your photoset “Ugh, I hate this already. Can I go back to being an adorable evil…”
You can be an adorable evil child instead!
Oh, she will be.
tiny-tany-thaanos replied to your photoset “Gwyneth: “Ready to age up, sweetie?” Avery: oh mum you bet”
Why is Gwyneth so cute I can’t even describe it!
Her cute face is the only reason why I thought “well, I could try a BPR I guess…”
Seriously. I’ve never really cared about berries, I’ve always prefered vanilla sims and berries were just something I created in cas from time to time and then never touched again. I still prefer vanilla sims and kinda doubt I’ll ever start another berry save.
elisabettasims replied to your photoset “Right…so now you’re a middle aged mum with a midlife crisis and a…”
I HATE THAT STUPID HAIR AND HOW IT SHOWS UP ON EVERYONE WHEN THEY AGE UP. *coughcough* Sorry. Had a bad flashback seeing that.
I hate it so much too! But actually, wanna hear a deep dark secret? I once used it on a sim…unironically. Like I actually thought it was cute.
I was 11 though, so that makes it okay, I think. I hope.

hey so um if you don’t mind me asking, what advice would you give someone who is just starting writing on tumblr, like what not to do and how to get people to see my work..?.. thanks hun xx
Hello! I have a couple tips which is basically what I did when I started writing for this blog and things I still keep in mind when posting new stuff. There’s a lot and I hope that even some of them can be helpful enough!
1. Just post. Simple yeah but very very important, don’t hesitate. Don’t give it any second thoughts and don’t believe it’s crap and not worthy uploading (says the person that thinks this every time she uploads a story XD). Just do your thing, if you spent time writing a fic then that alone makes it worth uploading! And trust me, 99% of the time you will be surprised at the positive response. Most of the time, and I mean it, when I have second thought about a story and really don’t believe it’s that good it ends up being super popular, for my standards at least.
2.Tags. This is like a number one rule for me, especially when I got started with writing on tumblr, it’s to tag everything. Up to this day I really tag anything in my fics (characters, show, pairing). And usually with more than one ways as you can see if you check some fic’s tags, e.g. dean x reader, dean winchester x reader, dean imagine, dean winchester imagine, dean one shot, dean fanfiction etc etc and trust me it helped a looot during my first fics!
3. Don’t be afraid to submit your stories to some blog, I know there are blogs out there that post imagines and fics all coming from other fans/blogs and I would upload/submit lots of stories there myself because they have lots and lots of followers that can get to know your writing!
4.Have a theme that is easy on the eye. I am going to be changing mine soon and other than making it all dolled up, I keep in mind for my text posts to have as large letters as possible for people to read easily. I don’t know important this is to others, considering lots of people use their phones for tumblr, but I am usually on pc and it does matter.
5. Opening requests, if you have the time and willingness to do that, is something I would advice doing. It’s not only nice when you run out of ideas of things to write but also gives people a chance to know your writing. Keep your inbox open, with anon-option on, and lots of people will start talking to you.
6. It all needs patience. It takes time, trust me I didn’t just start my blog ne day and then woke up the next morning with 17k followers. I’ve been doing this for pretty long, so don’t be discouraged if at first you think there aren’t people out there that like your writing! Honestly, I didn’t even pay attention to the notes when I first posted, and I didn’t get any messages (like aaaany at all) at first but I kept posting and posting until more and more people saw my fics and send messages and everything! Ihonestly still remember the first message I got, and how my blog was back then, heck even the theme I had XD
When it comes to writing I could also add:
In the beginning it will be a little hard and as with everybody your writing is not going to be perfect. But as long as you got a nice and original plot then you are on the right way. You only need to keep writing and reading other stories to either get ideas and improve yourself. The more you write, even short stories, the better!
What’s more, if you want your stories to be long just like most people like them it would be a good advice to write a lot about how the characters feel. Getting to give the reader an insight of the characters thoughts and dilemas sometimes is very good! You can also get to describe a lot. What is happening and all. What I mean is that when you write for example: “Where’s my pie?” Dean said. it is of course good sometimes, keeping it simple, you can always add a few more things like “Where’s my pie?” Dean asked with a raised eyebrow and an almost accusing voice tone. This way you both get more words if you want it and it also makes your writing more interesting for others. Of course the most important thing is that you get to make the reader see as they read what you had in mind when you were writing the story. You get it? It enables you to create a whole scene that with enough detail could as well be filmed.
Furthermore, it is good sometimes to use a different word for one thing. Like instead of saying ‘said’ you can say ‘asked’ when it’s a question, or for example ‘came out of his lips’ and so on. It certainly makes the story more interesting and not boring even if the plot is very interesting itself.
Now, originality is a trait I believe. Even if you are a writer or not. You may think your stories are not original, like e.g. Sam confessing his feelings to insecure Reader, but it doesn’t matter. You write that. Immediately. Because even if like thousands of other writers have written it it still is original cause it’s writen from you and that means it still is something different. After all nobody’s writing is similar 100% to others’. So yeah just always go ahead and write whatever story ya want anytime you want!
Well, equally important is to check your writing before you upload it. Of course there might be times you don’t have the time to check them and it is absolutely fine. But most of the time it would be nice to check them to make sure there are not mistakes that will confuse the readers. Other mistakes like vocabulary or grammar as long as they are not confusing I don’t think matter that much- or well at least I know they don’t bother me.
What matters is a good and believable plot. Key word: Believable. No matter if it is an AU or set in our world or in the spn universe it always has to be believable. This actually matters a lot to me, which is why I end up writing very long stories sometimes. You can let yourself get carried away and you can keep going even if the story is already very long as long as you feel it is believavle. Like you can’t have e.g. Cas and reader fighting a second and then over two lines from each Cas apologizes and is all soft. Gotta make it more believable, show them slowly calm down until they both apologize. Like how you’d see an episode. It doesn’t last just 5 minutes.
