Tumblr media
Reblogs and Comments are greatly appreciated!!
__________________________________________________________________________
Requester: irethepotato
Fandom(s): Millionaire Detective: Balance Unlimited
Pairing(s): Kambe Daisuke x Gender Neutral!Reader
Genre(s): Fluff, pining(?), love at first sight trope
I’d be happy to write for Balance Unlimited! I’m still getting a hand on Daisuke’s character, so this might be OOC, but I’ll try my best!
Also, you are slightly shorter than Daisuke in this. He does wear shoe inserts that make him roughly 5’7”.
__________________________________________________________________________
You saw him at a convention. No, not like ComicCon, but a gala, or rather a business function. He rolled up in a Chevy Corvette and stepped out, handing the keys off to the valet and buttoning the front of his pitch-black tuxedo suitcoat.
He was handsome, with slicked-back dark hair and mysterious eyes hidden behind sunglasses. And… did he have a pierced ear? Even more attractive. 
He had a woman next to him who had stepped out of the passenger side of the sports car. She was dressed in a sleek black dress and long black hair styled in an intricate updo. They looked alike, close enough to be related. You adjusted the hem of your own blazer and turned to grab a glass of champagne. 
There was no point in fantasizing over the unattainable. 
He was way out of your league anyway. 
You join in on the dancing, spinning away with dance partners as the hours pass, and you search for an opening. However, a wrench in your plans is apparent when you are twirled into the arms of the handsome young man you had spotted earlier. 
He’s even more handsome up close, and you can smell his expensive cologne. His sunglasses are nowhere to be found, probably folded away inside the inside pocket of his tux. 
But that’s not what throws a wrench in your plans. Instead, it’s the moment you meet his eyes. They’re a steely blueish-gray and all the more alluring. Fireworks erupt in your belly, and you almost trip over your feet. However, you are quick to recover without him noticing. 
You knew this feeling. It was the feeling of falling in love. You had felt it before, with your first love, who has long gone and left with your heart in pieces. It had taken years to heal yourself, and now you were scared of it breaking again. You couldn’t fall in love! You simply couldn’t!
But as you watch the man’s eyes widen almost inconspicuously, you realize he feels it too and quickly decide to break this off. 
“Sorry, I’ve forgotten something.” You quickly excuse yourself and head toward a side door. But, before you shut the door behind you, you look behind and catch his gaze once again. The door hurriedly closes behind you, and you are locked in a dead sprint. 
It doesn’t take long to find the host’s computer. But someone is already there. The woman who was with the man earlier (you really had to learn their names, this was getting exhausting). She was bent over a keyboard, tapping rapidly and lines of code appeared across the screen. The lights were off, save for the computer monitors (obviously), so you were bathed in blue light. 
The door slams shut behind you, and you jump, the woman does as well, turning, and her gaze flashes with surprise as you meet her eyes. Then you whip around to see who had shut the door, and you spot the man. 
He’s as good-looking as ever. That’s the infuriating part. 
“Do you have what you need?” His voice is deep, alluring, and smooth as honey. Damn it. He just keeps getting more attractive. But never mind that you have things to focus on! The woman unplugs and tosses a flash drive stick to him that he catches without looking. His eyes are trained on you as he slips it into his inside tuxedo pocket.  
“Just who are you?” You say, portraying an air of confidence. After all, you might as well put on a show, right? Throw them off your tracks, and don’t let them see how nervous you are, right?
“Kambe Daisuke. Who are you?” He says—more like demands—and you oblige. Equivalent exchange is polite, right? There’s no need to be rude. He says your name, and you shiver at the sound of it coming from his mouth. It sounded so sexy you couldn’t help but want to hear more. 
“Well, it’s nice to meet you, Daisuke, but I must be going now, so if you’ll excuse me—” His hand catches your wrist and yanks you back as you try to leave. You stumble, looking up into his eyes as your noses brush.
Your lips brush the corner of his own, and you are slipping away before he even registers what’s happening. His eyes are wide and uncharacteristically shocked. The woman behind you chokes on her own saliva as she stands, shocked. 
You’re gone before he realizes the flash drive is gone. You twirl it between your fingers, slip it into your inside pocket, and sprint down the hall. Finally, you make it to your car and peel out of the gala roundabout just as he bursts through the doors. 
His eyes are locked on your disappearing vehicle the entire time. 
Mission accomplished.

I had more thoughts, and really didn’t want to spam poor @goodwithcheese ‘s poll (omg pls go vote here) and while I’ve already been vulnerable once, thought may as well do it again and share.
but i’ve also just read @wildemaven ‘s ask she received on this here (lovely answer btw babe, and so many others) and my heart hurt so bad. I never want anyone to feel like they’re not welcomed or thought of or included. and of course I want to do something to help, if I can!
especially as last year and the beginning of this year, I felt the exact same. something I realise I’ve never said, and only a few really close friends knew. I worried I was too much, that I was bothering people and or pushing people away or fretting over unresponded messages. and I’m not sharing this because I want sympathy, but more because this is why I’m passionate about trying to a way to make people more included. because I know how it eats away at your joy, and your fun, and makes you feel isolated.
now, I’m aware some of this is my anxiety, and I struggle in social situations. but some of it was also because I didn’t want to upset anyone, and I felt I was.
even if it’s a silly who wants to be a millionaire post or ask games or polls on studying, I want to try (and am so appreciative of the open convos on the poll and Heidi’s ask, to help).
I’ve been in several fandoms, but this one has been far the nicest overall. and I care so much about the people in this fandom. I always want to make sure my blog and my inbox is an open and positive space, and want to continue doing so. and again, I’m just sharing this because I think honesty is important. I’m shy, yes—but I want to make this space fun and enjoyable, because it’s been that way for me when I joined 🩷

mess is mine | kuroo testurou x reader
warnings: 18+! mentions of sexy stuff & sugar daddy/baby dynamics, a cute lil kiss (this is angsty and SOFT DONT @ me)
wc: idk i wrote this in drafts lmao
also this is unedited pls ignore any mistakes for my ego’s sake
Tumblr media
Kuroo thinks he’s clever, hiding his wealth.
He’s glad the thirty million he’s made over the last five years isn’t public knowledge. Sure, close friends and family know he's doing well, but not even they know the exact number. Doesn’t know how he’d feel if people found out, if they were pawing at him and demanding things of him the way they do his best friend.
But how? How did a suit jockey manage to set himself up for life before the age of thirty-five?
Stocks, baby.
But keeping his millionaire status a secret doesn’t mean he refuses to have fun, and this month, fun is you.
Fun is giving you his black credit card, watching as your government housing ass is turned into something unsustainable. Something covered in diamonds and pearls, lace and leather. It’s his schtick: buttering up needy, broke, pretty things, then dropping them after he’s had his fill.
At least, that’s how it has been.
You came completely out of left field, giving just as much as you take. Blowing him in his favourite chair while he reads the morning news, cooking him breakfast wearing nothing but the exxy lingerie set he bought you the day before, sending him very raunchy pictures while he’s at work.
What’s another month with the same girl? Who’s gonna tell him he’s breaking his own rules?
But a month turns into half a year, and he tells Kenma about you, gets an earful about how you’re playing him, and he should drop you. But it doesn’t feel right. He really likes you. You’re funny, sexy, smart. You're practically living with him already.
So he ends it.
Seeing you cry is something else, something he's not quite prepared for.
You get up, wipe your tears, look at him, “it’s,” you start, voice shaky. “It’s been fun, Tetsu,”
His heart lurches, but he keeps a straight face, stays in his chair. His armchair. The chair that used to be his reading chair; the chair that’s now going to be forever associated with you and your lips and your thighs, your sweet voice.
You don’t grab anything on your way out, just your bag— which is wrong because you have so much here— then you’re sliding on your shoes in the landing.
“I’ll send your things—“
“None of that’s mine, Tetsu,” you snap, a little angry, still crying. “That was ours— together.”
He tries to lighten the mood, “you think I’m gonna be wearing all those shoes?”
“No, but I’m sure your next hookup will,” you mumble, teary eyes fixed on your shoes.
“Hey,” he frowns as you fiddle with the strap of your heel, growing increasingly frustrated. He sighs, strides over to you and squats at your feet, deft fingers working on the intricate strap. “You weren’t a hookup—”
Bitter laughter and a sniffle ring out above him, “I know about all of your other sugar babies, Tetsu, I’m not an idiot.”
“You weren’t a hookup, I didn’t say they weren’t,” he sets your foot down and looks up at you. “I’ll send your things—“
“I don’t want them!” You’re probably close to hitting him with your handbag, your fingers unable to catch the tears before they fall. “They’re only going to remind me of you.”
That Tiffany necklace is next. The one he bought you himself. The one you've never taken off. You rip it from your throat, hold it out for him. He sighs as he stands, rubs the back of his neck to distract himself from the sick feeling in his stomach.
"Take it!" You demand, chewing your lip so it doesn't tremble. So he does.
You're gone, then, the slam of the door making Kuroo jump a little, amplifying the empty feeling in his chest. He sighs, head falling forward to rest against the door, silently doubting his decision.
*
He makes plans, finds new girls. But he also finds excuses not to meet them.
Instead, he accidently makes a new habit: gets himself comfortable and slides through his camera roll, through the pictures he has saved of you, cock in his hand, Rolex on his wrist, remembering you.
It changes him, not that he notices. It's Kenma who grows tired of his sighing, his moping, his snappy attitude.
"No,"
"You're going, we're all going; it's for 'old time's sake'," Kenma informs him, not looking up from his phone, "the villa's booked, no backing out now."
Kuroo sighs, again, "You booked it just then?"
"Mmhm," Kenma flicks him a small smile, and Kuroo's phone starts pinging. "And that'll be the group chat."
"Oh, for fuck's--"
*
The villa's right on the beach, and Kenma's invited all of their old buddies; the Nekoma team, Bokuto, Akaashi, Tsukishima, Hinata-- which is fine because the villa is a goddamn mansion. What he wasn't expecting, were the wives.
Wives.
"Kenma, what the fuck?" He hisses, pulling his best friend back by the strap of his duffel as the couples chatter and venture up the steps of the villa.
"Can't punish them because you can't find someone," Kenma shrugs, giving him a backwards glance. "I'm flying my girl in, too. Go find one from the beach or something if you're so lonely."
"Kenma, you know—" Kuroo starts, growing irritated.
Kenma snatches his bag, "go for a walk on the beach, Tetsurou.” He urges, walking away from him, leaving Kuroo frustrated and irritated.
"Oi—”
But as he walks, Kenma points to the pathway right of the villa, big sign reading "BEACH", and Kuroo knows he can't be bothered to deal with these couples— especially a newlywed Yamamoto— so, he kicks off his shoes and follows it, waving Bokuto off with a smile when he calls for him.
The beach itself is beautiful, and practically private, which Kenma knows. He knows the only people who use this stretch of beach are rich or famous or old, so why the hell would he say something as ominous as that?
He takes a few more strides out onto the beach, sees that there's a woman on a towel about twenty feet away, her back to him, eyes out at the ocean, rubbing sunscreen on her arms. Kuroo freezes, narrows his eyes at her.
At you.
He'd know the back of your head anywhere, the shape of your hair, the curve of your shoulders, of your back. What the hell are you doing here? What’s he gonna do—
A whistle rings out and he looks back, sees Kenma on the closest balcony, waving at him— no. Waving at you.
He watches as you wave back, smile lighting up your pretty face, his insides absolutely squirming in irritation and elation, confusion keeping his usually confident self rooted to that spot on the sand. Then you see him— your head tilting to the side, eyes narrowing— and you're getting off your towel, moving towards him.
Kuroo looks back to see if Kenma's still there— his heart thumping loudly— but he's gone, and you're approaching, looking like you're ready to chew him out.
"Why are you here?" You demand, stomping in the sand, looking far better than any of those pictures he's got saved.
He's surprised he can turn on the suave, "I'm here with some friends," he slaps on a grin, suppressing the need to get the hell outta dodge. "One of which you seem to already know, actually."
You blink then, glance up to where Kenma was standing, "how do you know Kodzuken?"
"Kodzuken?" His stomach lurches, brain working to connect the dots.
It’s you? You’re the girl he’s flown in to spend the week with him? You’re his girlfriend? He wants to be sick, wants the sand to swallow him up.
You?
"I won a week's holiday from him through his youtube channel,” you explain, hands on your hips, your eyes a little softer than before, shoulders less tense.
“Oh, thank god,” he whispers to himself, crouching in the sand, curled over, head in his hands, making himself as small as possible. He could cry, but for now he just needs to settle down, calm his pulse.
He hears you approach, then feels your hands on him, one on each shoulder. “Tetsu? What’s going on?” You ask, voice soft, hands giving him a squeeze.
“I’m so sorry,” he says, falling onto his ass, fighting back the tears pricking at his eyes. “I didn’t— I got scared, baby,” he whispers, cautioning a look at you through his fingers.
You’re on your knees, arms cradling your stomach, bottom lip snagged between your teeth, “I didn’t... I didn’t win anything did I?”
Kuroo shakes his head slowly, “Kenma... he does this kinda shit.”
You’re nodding then, looking at him with sad eyes. “Tetsu, I’m not mad at you,” you mumble. “I, uh, I guess I got ahead of myself? Technically I was just a sugar baby, too, and somewhere along the way I made myself believe—“
“No, baby, that’s— that’s because I wanted that too,” he sighs, running a hand through his hair, your calm bringing him back down, your presence soothing. “I’m self destructive.”
You both sit there in silence, until the villa comes alive with music, the bass catching the attention of both of you.
“I... I didn’t find anyone else,” he admits, unable to look at you, his face and ears hot. “I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you since you left.”
“Tetsu, you have my number,” you say quietly, eyes on your fingers as you toy with your nails.
“You didn’t block me?”
Airy laughter, “as if I could block you,” you glance up at him, suppressing a smile.
“I love you,” he says, the words falling from his lips. You gasp, eyes wide, filling with tears. “That’s why I pushed you away; I was thinking about marriage, and how you’d look pregnant, what our kids would be like, and... I got scared. I’m sorry,”
You’re crying now, hands covering your eyes from his view, the sight filling him with the need to hold you.
“Come home, baby,” he whispers as he crawls over to you, wraps you in his arms and pulls you to his lap. “I miss you so much,” he presses kisses to your hair, and you wrap your arms around his neck, bury your face in his chest. “Look, I’ve been such a mess, my best friend played matchmaker.”
“Tetsu, I missed you,” you sniffle, pulling away from him, your hands cupping his jaw. “I was so up—“
“‘m sorry,” he breathes, presses his lips to yours.
Applause sounds from the balcony, and he groans in embarrassment, wrapping his arms around you more tightly, breaking the kiss. “They’re actually children,” he groans, sparing them a glance, but you’re laughing, wiping at your tears with your thumbs.
“They’re not so bad,” you snivel, giving them a little wave over Kuroo’s shoulder, causing them to break out in applause again. “I, um... I love you too, Tetsu,” you whisper, pressing your lips to his again.
He deepens it, smiling into it as his friends cheer him on, your own little giggle warming his heart, melting away all that angst and sadness.
Fun’s got a new meaning for him now; it’s this. This is fun. Love.

Dream and Karl will not see the light of day if George ends up cutting his hair because of that like and retweet 😀
Trollings gone to far not dream tricking george with the colours trying to kick him out the game and then tryna get george to cut his hair pls 😀
Karl my beloved didnt troll george tho about the colours but he retweeted that tweet 😀 i can forgive him tho cuz he was a great sport especially after george called the tricking colours thing messed up
yes and i’m going to make sure their lives are a living hell. 🥰
dream can’t stand when george is winning when they’re competiting against each other. the same thing happened that time q was playing who wants to be a millionaire with them and dream started making excuses to win even tho george had already won lol. 
karl’s hair looks like a helmet around his head and he has the audacity to say something about george’s hair? he’s lucky george is too good to say anything back because if he did... oh boy.
anyways, jealousy is a disease, i hope karl and dream get well soon. 💖

they start out really small, practicing in konoha and washio’s dorm in college and totally pissing off their neighbors
after they graduate, they rent a house where they all live together and work on music and practice
they “sound proof” the garage of their new place, but it doesn’t help all that much
luckily, despite their more rough and tumble appearances, these boys are SO SWEET
they win over the neighborhood by mowing lawns and helping people with their groceries
they eventually have the entire neighborhood enjoying their music and will give weekly performances from their garage for anyone that wants to come
the neighborhood sets up lawn chairs and food in the street and it becomes a street festival of sorts
this is actually how they are discovered! their little free concerts become more and more popular and by word of mouth a producer wanders into one of the performances and is absolutely BLOWN AWAY
he signs them on the spot
from there, they get very popular very quickly
they already had a pretty substantial and supportive fan base from soundcloud and spotify, and their signing only helped to further propel them to success
their shows regularly sell out but they’re chaotic so they like to randomly pop up in venues where they sign up under a different name and give suprise shows
they are all very down to earth and always excited to interact with their fans
for interviews, bokuto and konoha take the lead and akaashi and washio will back up what they say and answer questions directed at them
they design all their own band t shirts and merchandise (akaashi studied graphic design)
the first album they release features their garage set-up on the cover as an homage to their roots
they still go back and do neighborhood shows for all their old friends and original supporters when they can
bokuto
the drummer
Tumblr media
have you seen this mans arms? he’s made to be a drummer
his hair always starts out gelled up, but by the end of the night the sweat from the heat of the venue and the exertion of drumming for 2 hours has caught up w him and it starts to hang down into his eyes
always hyping the crowd up by banging his drumsticks together
he always signs them and throws them to the crowd at the end of their performances
loves to go crazy and improvise when given the opportunity
would interact more with the crowd if he could
sings backup, his voice is pretty low & the roughest of the band
is always fooling around at practices, but also always brings snacks so it sort of evens out
despite what most people think based on his casual and fun-loving attitude, he is very passionate about his music
helps akaashi with the lyrical part of the song writing process
manages social media for the band (at least until they get much bigger), most of the account is shitposting but also some good shots of the band and behind the scenes footage
generally does not sleep with/date fans (akaashi advises him against it & he trusts akaashi w his life)
akaashi
the lead singer
Tumblr media
his voice is like troye sivan’s but deeper and rougher (hehe)
he wears black eyeliner for performances (will also paint his nails black on occasion)
easily the most popular band member in terms of fans
he is CONSTANTLY getting proposed to
if this man had a dollar for every bra that was thrown at him, he would be a millionaire
surprisingly quiet and understated for a lead singer
usually lets bokuto and konoha do most of the talking, especially for interviews
but when he sings? all eyes and ears are on him
something about his voice is so captivating, powerful but soft, smooth but rough
he closes his eyes a lot while he sings but when he opens them and looks out into the crowd, everyone SWEARS he’s looking right at them he’s just that powerful
does the album and merch designs
he and bokuto do most of the lyrical part of songwriting for the band
generally does not sleep with/date fans
konoha
lead guitar
Tumblr media
is constantly making bedroom eyes at the crowd and they LOVE IT
is always running his fingers through his hair when he has a free hand and this makes the crowd go CRAZY
the one band member that will pull fans up onto the stage
also the most playful in terms of how he interacts with the crowd, and loves to walk up to the end of the stage and play on his knees for the fans in the front
will always toss his guitar picks into the crowd
he and bo have also been known to toss their shirts into the crowd on occasion
sings backup and has a very smooth voice
the band member that sleeps with groupies the most, the man PULLS
is the “execution” man in the band, deals with more of the business side of things
was responsible for setting up their contract and finding their manager, etc
is very serious about song writing, he and washio write the music that goes w akaashi and bo’s lyrics
washio
bassist 
Tumblr media
this man is LAID BACK
but tbh that’s part of his appeal
he’s brooding and serious but anyone that talks to him or interviews the band knows that he is the sweetest and softest of the bunch
whenever there are disagreements within the band, washio is the voice of reason and reminds them that they’re a family and came together out of a love for music and each other YEAH they’re soft for each other it’s cute
will also sing backup but doesn’t do it as much
easily has the lowest singing voice of the group
genius song writer, will stay up all night in the tour bus working on writing music long after everyone else has gone to bed
always thanks the venue for having the band and is usually the one that people prefer speaking to about scheduling
along with akaashi, keeps the band practices on schedule and works on album artwork and merch designs
does not sleep with fans as a rule, but i’m sure someone will come along and prove to be the exception to it

can u pls do more pillarmen I really like the lab experiment one
Um… hell yes I can??
Self-indulgent cuddle pile with your modern!human!pillar men roommates.
Words - 1760 (not proofread)
-
Getting home, you could hear the sound of bickering of your roommates in the kitchen and not wanting to deal with it, you snuck into your bedroom for a nap- knowing you barely had enough time for a quick one before the blind date your friend was forcing you to go on later that evening.
Getting out of your work clothes and slipping into some soft shorts accompanied by your old high school t shirt, there was a knock at your door.
“Yeah?” You called, wondering what one of the boys needed to borrow this time.
“I just noticed you hadn’t said hello when you got in and wanted to check on you. Are you alright?” Santana’s concerned voice inquired from the other side of your door.
You opened the door, missing how Santana’s eyes drifted to your bare legs. “Just kinda fed up from work and didn’t want to deal with the noise at home on top of that.”
“Rough day?” He asked, leaning his toned body on your doorframe. You nodded and opened your arms pathetically, and as if he could read you mind, Santana happy wrapped his large arms around you, causing you to let out a long sigh as you nuzzled your face into his expansive chest.
You really liked everyone in the house but you undeniably shared the closest bond of all your roommates with Santana. Although he could be a bit overprotective at times, he was by far the most considerate of the four and had been the one who warmed up to you the fastest when you moved in. He said it was because he was no longer the baby of the group and that he could now stop being teased- despite that not coming true when it came down to it, but you knew your personalities just gelled well together as you greatly appreciated his observant, at times stoic and aloof low maintenance nature. You loved the way that when you spoke to him, he would listen intently, as if learning some new and revolutionary information each time.
“Can I braid your hair again?” You meekly asked into his pecs, the prospect of playing with someone’s hair already relaxing your tensions from the day. A chuckle resonated through the two of you. “Of course.”
Getting on your bed and splaying your legs open in a ‘V’ you patted the space between them and looked at him expectantly, combing your hands through his long, dark red hair in preparation for the braid once he was situated between them, head in your lap.
The momentary peaceful energy in the room was disrupted by the two overgrown children bursting in. “Y/N! Esi refuses to admit he cheated in mortal kombat and is acting like a toddler because I called him out for it!” Wamuu announced loudly, as if you could do something about it.
“Am not! Don’t blame me for your lack of skills and call it cheating!” Esidisi defended himself quickly, before widening his eyes at you and Santana’s intimate positions. “…what’s going on here?”
Wam snapped his eyes up to you and his mouth fell open.
You removed your hands from Santana’s hair and sighed, irritated. “I’m just braiding his hair, You knucklehead-besides what did I say about knocking first?”
“Looks fun, can I join?” Esi asked ignoring you, already striding over to your bed and taking a seat on your side. Looking smugly over at wam he grinned. “I’m not in the mood to win against you again, you can go play a game on your own.”
Wamuu looked at him angrily with a huff and an eye roll as he moved his gaze back to you. “Y/N, would you mind if I sat with you guys?”
Letting out another long breath, you were just thankful you decided to get a larger bed when you moved. “I mean, If you really want to, wamuu.”
Plopping himself down with a creek, he fell back onto your pillows, kicking his feet up and grabbing the remote on your bedside table before turning on the tv across from your bed, flipping through Netflix titles.
You resumed playing with Santana’s hair as Esi got comfortable laying down as well. “Why is your bed so much softer than mine?- oh shit wam I love that movie.”
Wamuu scoffed “It’s hardly a well written movie, the dialogue is laughable and the fighting scenes at repetitive, not to mention horribly choreographed.”
“Okay, tough guy.” You snorted out in a laugh as you let go of Santana’s hair, Esidisi grinning triumphantly from beside you at his rival knowing you were defending him.
Wam carelessly tossed the remote at Esi with a quick “whatever, you pick if it matters so much.” Before wrapping his arms around you, pulling you down beside him, effectively locking you in a soft version of a chokehold. “Don’t think I don’t know exactly where you’re ticklish spots are! You’re 1000 years to early to believe yourself a worthy opponent of the great Wamuu!” He announced in a dramatic tone. “Luckily for you though, my generous self has taking a liking to you, and I do not wish to completely obliterate you- instead, I offer you my protection from the hideous old beast Esidisi, along with anyone else who tries to pursue you!”
The white haired male shot wam a look, “don’t lump me in with the animals chasing after Y/N. I may not have youth, but I certainly make up for it in class.”
“Esi, you’re only a few years older than Wamuu, stop acting like you’re having a mid life crisis.” You chided, quirking up an eyebrow, hoping your stern face would stop the bickering.
“I’ll stop using my superior intellect to outsmart him when he learns the basic lessons you learn in kindergarten...” an impish gleam erupted on his face “like how to share your things.” Yanking you from Wam’s arms, he circled his own around your waist.
Tired and admitting defeat, you just allowed it as you began to watch the movie Esi had chosen, letting out a yawn before you felt Wamuu rest his head on your shoulder and Santana readjust so he could see the screen, head still lazing in your lap contently as your eyes drifted closed.
Groggy, you became vaguely aware of the front door slamming shut, knowing the ‘head of the household’ was home. Falling in and out of consciousness, you startled as the sound of someone clearing their throat impatiently snapped you right out of your sleepy mood, Kars standing at the foot of your bed.
“What the hell is this?” Kars demanded, gesturing to the mess of limbs on the bed.
Before you could answer, the phone you lazily tossed on your dresser dinged, causing Kars’ attention to divert from you. He grimaced. “Who’s Adam And why is he asking if you’re still on for tonight, Y/N?”
“Shit.” You spoke, attempting to sit up from beneath the now groaning tired mass of muscles tangled around you. “Kars can you pass me my phone? I have to let him know I’ll be late.”
His striking gaze turned cold. “You didn’t answer my question.”
Your roommates- now fully awake, observed the situation with watchful eyes, all interested as well in why you would be texting a man when they had clearly been trying to woo you for months now.
“Why does it matter to you.” You argued.
“Shall I take away your phone privileges?” He threatened.
“What the fuck? You’re not my-“
“Up.” Kars instructed, gesturing for you to stand. Fearfully, You obeyed as you knew how Kars got when you didn’t show him respect. Being the one to earn the largest sum in the household at his glitzy CEO office job and often covering most extra expenses without complaint seemingly making him overbearing and authoritative towards the other cohabitators.
To your surprise he settled himself where you had sat in between Wamuu and Esidisi, Santana Sitting at his feet as he still held your phone.
You knitted your eyebrows together in confusion at the sight of him in his luxurious dress clothes, surrounded by the other three in their casual tees and sweats, all peering at you. “Wha-?”
Kars motioned for you to sit down on the bed… right on his lap. With a blush, you shook your head making Kars give you ‘the look’.
“You seemed cozy enough when I came in here, am I not up to your standards? I sure hope this ‘Adam’ is a millionaire in that case.” You’re face turned multiple shades redder. “Perhaps we should give him a call and let him know you won’t be meeting with him tonight.” He teased, wagging your phone in the air.
You laughed, irritated but used to putting up with Kars’ bullshit. “Nice try, you don’t even know the password.”
Looking at you with a smirk and facing your phone screen towards you, he simply pressed his thumb to your home button, the phone unlocking first attempt with no issue.
Widening your eyes at the invasion of privacy, you lunged at him to retrieve your cellular device, Santana latching onto you as you did so to prevent you from clawing out Kars’ eyes.
“So you are useful for something Santana.” Kars remarked to the redhead, making him grumble and tuck your head under his chin to calm himself down.
Kars put his hands under your arms and lifted you from Santana’s grasp and onto his lap, the Younger man immediately latching to your waist and legs.
Hearing the dial tone through your phone behind you, you struggled to prevent what he was about to say to Adam. Your friend was going to have your head for this.
Kars held the phone away from his face. “Esidisi, Wamuu. Would you mind assisting me?” He inquired. Nodding, they trapped both your arms.
“You guys too?” You cried out.
Sheepishly, they shrugged as Esi spoke up. “Well..” he trailed off. “You know what they say, the enemies of my enemy are my my allies.” His words made you deflate, knowing you had no chance against 4 hulking men.
“Ah, yes hello.” Kars greeted when the call was answered. “I’m calling on behalf of Y/N… they’re a little tied up right now and won’t be able to make it tonight.” There was an angry voice on the other end, making you wince. “Calm down your pathetic babbling. Its not as if I’d let them go regardless, this is just how things are, I’d be more than happy to settle this with you face to face though, if you still insist on acting like a petulant child.”
More angry words were thrown at him before the beeps of a hung up call met your ears. Kars tossed your phone onto your night stand sighing as he wrapped his arms around you from behind, taking on a patronizing tone. “Some people have such a temper… it’s wildly unbecoming, but no need to fret over being set up with such a barbaric Neanderthal… you’re meant to be here with us anyways. You were already ours the moment you stepped through the front door.”

Tumblr media
“No Loki...I won’t leave you,” tears streaming down your face. Your hands grasping on tightly to Loki, your significant other, shoulders.
Asgard was destroyed, but you and a couple of others had rescued the people of Asgard. As you all were heading to your new home, Earth, an unknown ship appeared. When you all figured out it was the most powerful enemy known to mankind, Thanos, the whole ship was chaos. Many Asgardians sending distress calls to anyone who would listen. Children scared and sobbing, afraid, mothers trying to soothe them, but you knew they were also in fear. Some wanted to fight, but you and almost everyone on that ship knew Thanos could kill everyone. Thor gave an idea that a few people, because of the only few mini ships they had, could escape, so that Thanos would not wipe out all of Asgard. Brunnhilde was the leader of helping some Asgardians escape. Ushering and sending orders.
“Y/n...listen to me. You need to get off this ship, if you stay you will die,” Loki whispered to you, he tried to sound strong but you noticed his hands were shaking. His hands were placed on your cheeks, wiping the tears away.
“I don’t want to leave without you. What if-,” you swallowed a sob. “What if you get killed, Loki? What will I do without you?”
Loki chuckled, “Love, you do realize who you are talking to, right?”
“Loki this isn’t a game! The most ruthless being is outside this ship as we speak and you want to joke about it!”
Just then a loud bang was heard, and all the Asgardians ran around panicking. Thor sent out a few warriors to go fight and see the commotion.
“They’re here,” you breathed.
“My darling...you need to leave now. Please, listen to me,” Loki raised his voice, pushing you to Brunnhilde’s side.
“NO! Loki, please, I can’t leave you. We are one! If you die so will I! I can’t let you fight by yourself.”
“My love...there is no other way. Remember our time together,” Loki gently lifted your hand and laced his fingers with yours. “Remember us laughing, remember us crying, remember our magnificent love. For if I was any good enough for a second chance, we shall meet in Valhalla.”
“I love you Loki,” you sob as you embrace him, and kiss him goodbye. You put your forehead together with his and whisper, “may we meet in Valhalla.”
Brunnhilde sprinted to your side and grabbed you by the shoulders, “Alright y/n, its time to get it.”
You walked side by side with her and looked back to see Loki. Loki looked lost as his puppy eyes stared at you. He looked as if he wanted to shout your name so as you could rejoin him. He looked as if he would never see you again, that all that he is about to fight for is for nothing. It was as if his heart was taken away, ripped right through his chest.
“Goodbye...my darling,” Loki whispered and ran the opposite direction.
You were led to a tight ship, filled with many Asgardians. The ship started and all of you blasted away to a destination. You sat next to Brunnhilde to help her pilot the ship. You turned around to see if maybe you could spot Loki but all you saw was destruction. More tears came out like a waterfall. Deep in your heart you knew that you were to never see Loki again.
You straighten your posture and put your focus to the space in front of you. “Where are we going now?”
“Earth,” Brunnhilde said, tears also coming out of her eyes. You could hear a slight sniffling coming from her. “We need to warn the midgardians about Thanos.”
“I think they might already know.”
As your rescue ship heads towards Earth, the Asgardian ship suddenly explodes.
“NO! No...this can’t be happening! Please tell me he’s okay, that he escaped,” you asked to everyone, searching for a reassuring answer that he was fine, that he did make it out. But everyone just gave you a saddened look, all hope vanished, sucked out of the room. All the tears you tried to keep in suddenly rushed out. Your sobs were the only noise in the ship. You could tell some felt bad for you. The floor was covered in your own depressing tears, all of life that moment was ripped out of you. The moment that Loki died a piece of you went with him.
You stood up, your hands turning into violent knuckles. Your nails digging harshly into your skin, blood being created from that. “I will avenge you Loki Odinson, god of mischief,” you paused to cry some more, “my...god...my...love...I will avenge your death. I will make sure all those who hurt you pay.”
Brunnhilde nodded and set the ship to Earth. After the enemy.
You all landed on Earth more towards the city and to Tony Stark to warn him about Thanos. You wanted to hear his plan and if he didn’t have one then you would discuss something with him. To save humanity.
“Thank you Brunnhilde. But just as Thor ordered you and trusted you to protect the Asgardians...I am going to go my own way-”
Brunnhilde interrupted, “Y/n, I understand you are sad and scared because...I am too. All my nightmares are coming true and I don’t know what to do-”
You brought her to you and hugged her tightly. The hug in your mind was from Thor, Bruce, and all those Valkyries who were watching her from Valhalla and cheering her on. Your tears fell on her shoulder.
“Yes...Brunnhilde...I am scared, in fact I have never been more frightened than this. But these people, now your people, are more scared. They trust you and you are their only hope. I trust you, girl, you got this. You are the most incredible fighter I have ever seen. Keep that in your heart and use it. Try to find a hide out and keep them,” you say as you point to the Asgardians. “Safe. Protect them with your life...my friend...Brunnhilde.”
She nodded, and announced to the others to follow her to safety.
“I do hope to see you again, y/n.”
You bid your goodbye and left.
You called Tony and met up with him. You felt so bad to interrupt his non-violent life for the time. He was trying you can tell to be normal to focus on his life rather than others.
“Hey Tony,” you waved and try to give a smile, but it backfired on you. Your face was written with worry. “I heard the famous Tony Stark has gotten engaged you chuckled. At least a little sunshine, a little good news came out of this reunion. “It was about dam* time. Wish I could of seen it.”
Tony gave you his millionaire smile seeing you, his long time friend. You were by his side since Loki tried to take down New York. “It's really good to see you too, y/n.”
You went to pepper and gave her a hug as well as Tony. “You guys look...happy…,” you said feeling guilty.
“Y/n, what's wrong,” Pepper asked panic setting in.
“Great y/n, you’re ruining their lives,” you thought to yourself.
“Oh, guys, I don’t even know where to start,” you began sobbing over again. Your knees meeting the soft green grass of the park. “Thor, and Loki, and the ship, and Brunnhilde, and Bruce. I tried, they’re gone, I was so scared, I just,” you realized you were currently have a panic attack. Everything now was starting to affect you mentally. You all were going to die. There was no way out of this. Your breathing was heavy and you felt you were being suffocated. The world was getting tinier, darker.
“Y/n,” Tony got down to you. “Y/n, you have to breathe for me. Come on breathe for me, please.”
You started to do breathing exercises with Tony. Those breathing exercises would come handy, you just knew it. Finally, you got control of yourself to be in a normal state.
“I’m sorry, its just. I feel so empty, and lost.”
Tony hugged you and suddenly Dr. Strange appeared. He told both you and Tony to go with him, because he had to show you two something.
You were more nervous to find out if this something that Stephen wanted to show you guys was another pile of bad news.
As you walked into the portal that Strange created with his string ring you saw Bruce.
“Bruce,” you shouted as you sprinted towards him. Greeting him with a rough embrace.
“Hey y/n, good to see you too. Are you okay?”
Your arms, still wrapped tightly around his shoulders, squeezed tighter, “No, I’m not okay. But I’m happy you’re alive, was there any chance that maybe…”
You stopped hugging Bruce and returned your hands to your sides. You knew that Loki would not be alive. It was just pointless asking.
“Now why the long face,” came a familiar soft voice.
You lifted your head and turned around seeing the one and only Loki.
“Loki!”
Running as fast as your legs could take you, you hopped right onto him. You and Loki fell back and you hugged him the hardest ever. You were like a snake, your arms were aching from all the strength you put. You were just so overjoyed to see him here, alive, with you.
“Oh my god, I thought I would never see you again. I was frightened Loki, I was so scared that you had died. But now you’re here, alive, its, it's a miracle my love!”
“Oh my dear sweet darling, I am terribly sorry to have you frightened. All I wanted to do was keep you safe and sound. My heart broke in two when I saw you weeping, I also weeped.”
You cried some more, having your bodies against each other. To hear and feel his heartbeat was incredibly comforting and in his arms you felt safe.
Loki wiped your tears away and kissed lightly your cheeks, “Oh my love, please don’t cry. I hate to see you in such a state.”
“Loki, I’m just so happy to see you alive. I thought you were gone and now my life, my world you’re here. I never want to be away from you again. We fight Loki...together,” you declared lacing your fingers with his pale white fingers.
“My job, love, is to always protect you. Without that what good am I?” “I will protect you as well Loki, with every fiber of my body I will protect you...I love you so much Loki,” you embraced him again.
“As do I love you, sweetheart. Forever,” Loki whispered as he kissed you. A passionate kiss that set your whole body in flames. Now you and Loki would have to prepare yourselves for the battle. The battle of Thanos.

this is one of my more annoying opinions but it rly bugs me when ppl only look to mainstream art for “representation” or whatever. like. when lesbians gush over she-ra - there are women writing stories out there where the characters kiss and are explicitly gay *before* the very last episode!! and we don’t talk about those stories because they’re not published by companies like dreamworks, who don’t actually give a shit abt lesbians, bcos it’s a company that just wants ur Progressive Audience Dollars. u can go and find this kind of thing on this very website!
and don’t get me wrong like. i like she-ra too, ur allowed to enjoy it ofc. but to praise it for doing anything new is ridiculous when ppl without money and influence have been pushing the envelope further for literal decades already. pls think abt supporting creatives in your own community before you line the pockets of liberal millionaires for doing the bare minimum

Why Does Bachelor in Paradise Suck So Much This Season?
(Photographs: City)
Calling all Bachelor Nation obsessives like myself: I think it’s time we have a *serious* talk about—I’m sure you can already guess—Bachelor in Paradise. And I don’t mean a “Who are your favourite couples?” or a “What the eff is up with the Goose?” kind of chat. No, it’s time we have a no-holds barred conversation about the state of this season. Because I can’t be the only one who thinks it kinda sucks so far, right?
Maybe we’ve been spoiled in the past by the great love stories of Jade and Tanner, and Carly and Evan. Heck, I even kind of miss the Ashley I. and Jared saga (although I do get enough of their newfound love on a daily basis through Insta stories #vom). But I refuse to believe that we don’t deserve these kind of A+ Bachelor franchise storylines in our lives every damn. season. Am I right or am I right?
As a loyal watcher of The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise, Bachelor Winter Games and—if I’m being shamefully honest—a future watcher of whatever other spin-offs the Bachelor Nation gods will surely throw my way, I expect more than what’s been delivered thus far in season 5 of BiP. The storylines are flat, the contestants suck, the drama is more forced than Garrett’s Twitter scandal apology. And—despite the fact that I still watch every week because, let’s be honest, I’m addicted to this crap—I am not here for it.
So, let’s all grab a piña colada and explore why the first three episodes of Bachelor in Paradise season 5 have been less than stellar. (At the same time, let’s all collectively pray it will get better next week, k?)
Reason #1 BiP sucks this season: The contestants
The most obvious reason Paradise sucks this season? Poor casting. First off, the girls are WAY bigger catches than the guys this time around. Minus Venmo John (who is legit a multi-millionaire—bro, WHY ARE YOU HERE?) and Colton (yes, I’m still #TeamColton) these dudes honestly all seem like kings of douchebaggery—and Chris R. is their leader. Case in point:
On top of that, the majority of this summer’s contestants are from Arie and Becca’s seasons—with a few exceptions—which obviously is going to make things a lot less interesting. All these people already know each other and hang out in the same Bachelor Nation circle. (You know at least half of them have hooked up before.) So if the producers *really* wanted this to be a good season, they should have picked from a bigger pool of Bachelor and Bachelorette castoffs. Just saying.
Reason #2 BiP sucks this season: One contestant in particular (Tia!)
It’s safe to say that I’m not Tia’s number one fan, but I can’t be the only one who has straight-up just had enough of Tia in Paradise. Like, I feel bad that she came hoping to find love with Colton and he ended up wanting to explore other options. I truly do, that sucks. But girl needs to GET OVER IT. They dated for what, a weekend? (Is a weekend fling considered dating in 2018? IDEK anymore). And, considering the very real tears Colton shed for Becca when she annoyingly showed up (*insert multiple eye rolls*), the dude clearly has enough going on.
Let me put it this way: You know that friend that’s always going on about a boy? (Don’t lie, we all have one). Well, Tia is Paradise’s version of that. So instead of getting two hours of mind-numbing TV two nights a week (which this show is supposed to offer me), I get stuck with four straight hours of Tia badmouthing Colton—who, in my eyes, really didn’t do anything wrong other than follow his sad, broken heart. So, PLS no one give Tia a rose next week and maybe the rest of this season will have a chance.
Reason #3 BiP sucks this season: The producers
At the end of the day, I truly believe it all comes down to the producers. Don’t get me wrong, I get what they’re trying to do. They want the show to do well, so they focus on the drama in an effort to make this the “most dramatic season yet” and finally put some truth to Chris Harrison’s favourite catch phrase. BUT, in focusing on all of Tia and Colton’s drama—and don’t even get me started on bringing Becca to Paradise because that was just unforgiveable—we’ve lost sight of all the real relationships.
Like seriously, where is all the love? We know that there are legit connections forming. Kevin W. and Astrid, for example, have been coupled up for the past two episodes—Kevin even turned down a date with Jubilee because he wanted to stick with Astrid (something I was slightly shook by). But have we seen more than, idk, three minutes (and that’s being generous) of these two in Paradise? No. We have, however, spent countless minutes watching Tia’s tedious dramz with both Colton and Chris unfold.
My point here is that in an effort to make this season the most dramatic ever, the producers have actually ruined it with drama we don’t care about—and, in turn, they’ve denied us the content we actually want to see.
You know the saying “if it ain’t broke”? Well, Bachelor producers, you shouldn’t have tried to fix it.

so it's like. i totally get bettman doesn't have the final say in stuff the league does, like it's mainly the owners and such, but i still think it's hilarious when he said "WE're not participating in the olympics" like. who tf do you mean by "we" gary; ovi's already stated multiple times he's going regardless of the league's decision and i'm pretty sure the caps owner has stated he wholly supports ovi's decision. (1/2)
and then you got guys like kopitar and zuccarello who were, literally a week before the world cup, playing in olympic qualifying games just to get their respective home countries into the olympics in the first place, but now you're gonna tell them they can't play?? lmao good luck with that. (2/2)
i love it cause like the NHL thinks they have that much power that if ovi and other big names go they’ll be the ones the fans support??? like lol the league is nothing without their stars and the owners need to stop being so fucking self centered and get humbled a little. like the caps owner SHOULD support ovi because Ovi is the reason his team is relevant at all. and like what’s the problem with not shutting down the league and each team just sends the players chosen for their respective olympic teams, they play what??? 3-5 games without them and then they’re all back. they don’t gotta shut down the elague, everyone gets to go, the iihf pays for the room, board and player insurance. 
i just feel like we’re in this weird af tme period where the older generation is so so so sos os much more disconnected from the younger generation than it ever has so the old boys club that runs everything actually thinks everyone would agree with them. like we would see the millionaires and blame them just for being millionaires when the Billionaires are the ones making the shitty decisions. like it’s only selfish and ungrateful if the players do it, not when they do it. like pls.

Where To Get Dessert Delivery & Takeout In Seattle
As if your aggressive sweet tooth wasn’t already an issue, now you have the stress of a quarantine triggering it. Tip: Just lean into it. We all need to feel some sweet relief right now, and there’s no shame in a late-night (or early afternoon) sugar binge. Luckily, there are plenty of places in town to help. From bakeries to pie shops to restaurants selling homemade soft serve, here are some great options for dessert delivery and takeout in Seattle.
All restaurants featured on The Infatuation are selected by our editorial team. Where To Get Dessert Delivery & Takeout is presented by Uber Eats. In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, supporting our local restaurant community has never been more important. Uber Eats customers can now give directly to the restaurants they love at checkout. 100% will go to the restaurant. Order now to support. See app for details.
   Featured In The Ultimate Seattle Delivery & Takeout Guide See all our guides The Spots  Frankie & Jo's $ $ $ $ Capitol Hill $$$$ 1010 E Union St
Ben and Jerry’s have their place, but the only two names in ice cream we’re interested in are Frankie and Jo. They make outstanding coconut- and cashew-milk-based vegan ice creams in flavors like chocolate tahini and rhubarb yuzu yogurt. You can check their Instagram for more information, but they’re also doing a delivery special that includes five pints and a reusable cooler bag for $80.
 Ma’ono Fried Chicken & Whisky $ $ $ $ Korean ,  Fusion ,  Southern  in  West Seattle $$$$ 4437 California Ave SW Not
Rated
Yet
It would be borderline cruel to get Ma’ono takeout without a spicy fried chicken sandwich. So, make sure to order one of those, and then add on a slice of banana cream pie for dessert. The whipped cream to filling ratio is essentially 2:1, and the cookie crust is full of crunchy cacao nibs. You can place your delivery order here.
 Homer $ $ $ $ Mediterranean  in  Beacon Hill $$$$ 3013 Beacon Ave S 8.4 /10
Besides incredible mezze and fluffy pita bread, we can also count on this Mediterranean restaurant in Beacon Hill for their soft serve takeout window. They have much more interesting flavors than just vanilla, like recent options vegan salt-roasted banana, matcha, chocolate bay leaf, and tahini. Having a cup of this stuff is somehow even better than a Zoom party without any technical difficulties.
 Little Coney $ $ $ $ American ,  Burgers ,  Ice Cream  in  Ballard $$$$ 8003 Seaview Ave NW Not
Rated
Yet
Speaking of soft serve, this tiny burger joint located in the parking lot of Golden Gardens is where you can get a classic swirl cone. And even though you can’t enjoy your ice cream on the beach, it’s still nice to be able to drive up and grab a cone while soaking in the view of the shore. They’re only open for takeout (but the soft serve would travel poorly anyway).
Mamnoon $ $ $ $ Middle Eastern  in  Capitol Hill $$$$ 1508 Melrose Ave 8.5 /10
They’re not Oreos, but Mamnoon is selling freshly-baked chocolate chunk tahini cookies that you can order for delivery by calling the restaurant at 206-906-9606. You can eat them by themselves, use them to make little ice cream sandwiches, or freeze them for another day - the choice is yours.
 Sea Wolf Bakery $ $ $ $ Cafe/Bakery  in  Fremont $$$$ 3621 Stone Way N
Aside from rye bread, chocolate pastries are Seawolf’s expertise. Both their chocolate croissant and oatmeal chocolate chip cookie are phenomenal baked goods to pick up and eat for dessert. They’re so good that you’ll want to work them into your routine just as seamlessly as you did when you started checking your turnip prices in Animal Crossing daily.
 Hot Cakes $ $ $ $ American ,  Cafe/Bakery ,  Ice Cream ,  Dessert  in  Capitol Hill $$$$ 1650 E Olive Way Not
Rated
Yet
It’s your birthday - all the gifts were ecards, and your party is on Zoom. However, you can still get a real cake from Hot Cakes. They’ve launched a new menu called “Birthdays Don’t Stop” which is a delivery service for molten lava cakes you can bake at home. You can even add candles for free.
 Order delivery   Miri's Snack Shack $ $ $ $ Mediterranean ,  Middle Eastern  in  Ballard $$$$ 8498 Seaview Pl NW Not
Rated
Yet
If you’d rather have your dessert for breakfast, the poffertjes at Miri’s are excellent - plus you can top yours with a dusting of powdered sugar and fruit or a sh*t ton of Nutella. They’re open for pickup only, but Miri’s gives you the perfect excuse to drive down to the beach and eat a big serving of pancakes.
 Bakery Nouveau $ $ $ $ Cafe/Bakery  in  Capitol Hill $$$$ 1435 E John St 7.9 /10
Bakery Nouveau has almost every kind of French pastry you can think of - macarons, cakes, tarts, cookies, and more. Right now they have contact-free pickup areas at both their Capitol Hill and West Seattle locations.
 Cupcake Royale $ $ $ $ Cafe/Bakery ,  Ice Cream  in  Capitol Hill $$$$ 1111 E Pike St Not
Rated
Yet
Cupcake Royale is one of our favorite places for ice cream, cupcakes, and ice cream with cupcakes mixed in (specifically a double-decker cone of buttermilk red velvet and salty caramel). You can place an order for pickup, an advance order for delivery, or same-day delivery all on their website.
 Order delivery   Pie Bar Ballard $ $ $ $ American ,  Dessert  in  Ballard $$$$ 2218 NW Market St Not
Rated
Yet
Pie Bar doesn’t leave a lot to the imagination - it’s a bar that serves pies. You can order their tasty cream or fruit-based slices for delivery here, and some of their options include apple crumble, key lime, peanut butter, and cookies and cream.
 Order delivery  Lowrider Baking Company $$$$ 2407 E Union St
Lowrider Baking Company is offering same-day delivery for all of your cookie needs. If you go to their website, you can buy a layered cookie cake, as well as individual slices of cookie cake, pints of Full Tilt ice cream, and even half-pints of milk.
 Order delivery   Buddha Bruddah $ $ $ $ American ,  Thai  in  Beacon Hill $$$$ 2201 Rainier Ave S Not
Rated
Yet
Buddha Bruddah’s Thai iced tea is so sweet and creamy that we’d even consider that a dessert. But they also have a bunch of other sweets on their menu to choose from, like coconut cream pie, chocolate cream pie, chocolate coconut cream pie, banana cream pie, and macadamia nut brownies. They’re all great, and you can get your slices and brownies delivered through third-party apps.
 Order delivery   Sweet Alchemy Ice Cream $ $ $ $ Ice Cream  in  University District $$$$ 4301 University Way NE Not
Rated
Yet
While everyone’s raiding the freezer section at the supermarket, you should sit at home and get pints delivered to you from Sweet Alchemy. This ice cream spot in the U District serves excellent flavors like espresso shortbread, banana nutella, and Korean rice wine. In addition to pints, they’re offering homemade pastries for delivery, too.
 Order delivery   Deru Market $ $ $ $ American ,  Pizza ,  Sandwiches  in  Kirkland $$$$ 723 9th Ave Ste D 8.5 /10
One of the most heated debates with friends and coworkers is which cake flavor from Deru is the best. Some days we say dark chocolate with salted peanut butter frosting, and other days we’re feeling coconut - point is, they’re all incredible. Head to their website to find out what slices they have for pickup and delivery.
 Kelly Cannoli $$$$ 11310 Lake City Way NE
On a random stretch of Lake City Way is a pink shed that serves the best cannoli in the entire city. Kelly Cannoli is offering delivery of their ricotta-filled pastry shells through third-party apps, and you can stay updated on their hours and menu on their Facebook page.
 Order delivery  R&M Dessert Bar $ $ $ $ American ,  Wine Bar ,  Cafe/Bakery ,  Ice Cream ,  Dessert  in  Capitol Hill $$$$ 601 E Pike St Not
Rated
Yet
R&M is a great place to order from if you want dessert for a date night or anniversary while stuck at home. They specialize in smaller, fancier treats like chocolate almond tortes, cherry tarts, pear hazelnut crisps, and white chocolate pistachio shortbread. They’re selling wine too, in case you want something nice to pair with your pastries. Check their website for more information.
 Order delivery   Next Level Burger $ $ $ $ Burgers ,  Vegetarian  in  Ravenna/Roosevelt $$$$ 1026 NE 64th St Not
Rated
Yet
Next Level is a plant-based burger spot inside of the Roosevelt Whole Foods. So, while you’re there grabbing groceries, you should absolutely get one of their incredible chocolate cookie milkshakes made with homemade coconut soft serve. And if you don’t need to go to the grocery store, you can always just order a shake for delivery.
 Order delivery   Shug's Soda Fountain and Ice Cream $ $ $ $ Cafe/Bakery  in  Downtown $$$$ First Avenue Not
Rated
Yet
If you have nothing to top your ice cream but an overripe banana, gummy multivitamins, and coffee grounds, you need Shug’s Soda Fountain’s help. Their sundae kits come with two pints of ice cream, hot fudge, caramel, brownies, graham crackers, marshmallows, toasted almonds, rainbow sprinkles, and cherries. If that’s too much (or you’re still looking for more), you can also get a root beer float kit or smaller s’mores sundae or brownie sundae kits. Just be sure to pick up from their West Seattle pop-up location, not their Downtown location. Check their Instagram for more information.
 Fat Ducks Deli & Bakery $ $ $ $ Sandwiches ,  Cafe/Bakery  in  University District $$$$ 5509 University Way NE Not
Rated
Yet
You could take an entire afternoon and make an intricately layered shortbread from a recipe you found online. Or, you can just make a quick trip to pick up some sweets from Fat Ducks. From their fudgy brownies to millionaire bars, anything this bakery cuts into rectangles is excellent.
 Order delivery   Nielsen's Pastries $ $ $ $ Cafe/Bakery ,  Dessert  in  Queen Anne $$$$ 520 2nd Ave W Not
Rated
Yet
When you cross a cinnamon roll with a cheese danish, you get something incredible - behold the “Snitter” from Nielsen’s. Eat it for breakfast with coffee, after dinner with some milk, or just grab some of these pastries for takeout whenever you get a chance. They’re pickup-only, but if you buy a Baker’s Box for delivery (which also comes with flour, eggs, butter, and four assorted pastries), there’s a chance they’ll throw in a snitter.
Trophy Cupcakes $$$$ 1815 N 45th St Ste 209
While all of your friends are starting artsy hobbies like cross-stitching, painting, and puppeteering intricate love triangles on The Sims 4, you could get into cupcake decorating. Trophy Cupcakes offers delivery and pickup for their DIY Decorate Your Own Dozen Kit, which comes with two flavors of unfrosted cupcakes, vanilla buttercream, and a lot of sprinkles. Maybe this is meant for children, but we see no reason why adults won’t enjoy this, too.
 Order delivery   206 Burger Company $ $ $ $ American ,  Burgers  in  First Hill $$$$ 1000 Madison Street Not
Rated
Yet
If you want something to sip on your couch that isn’t water, alcohol, or coffee, a milkshake the only logical next option. Our favorite one in the city is 206 Burger’s Oreo version, with thick vanilla ice cream and a lot of cookie crumbs. Order it for delivery here.

ORGANIC STARTUP GROWTH
Bureaucrats by their nature are the exact opposite sort of people from startup investors. How wide is this territory? Studio art and creative writing courses are wildcards. What that means is that at least decrease inequality? Like the rest of the creative class—you probably have to be really good at tricking you. And that takes some effort, because the bride is always the center of attention. The survival rate for startups is way less than fifty percent. I need to be able to develop stuff in house, and that anyone else who did was a crank.1 On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog. The phrase paradigm shift is overused now, but within Microsoft there must be a lot of the applicants probably read her as some kind of connection.
Actually college is where the line ends. Actually it might be a good thing. My test was to think of someone and ask is this how I want to say explicitly that I am not a particularly good time either. Inequality has to be planted in the right soil, or it won't germinate.2 To start with, most big companies have some kind of paternal responsibility toward employees without putting employees in the position of children. The less it costs to start a startup on ten thousand dollars of seed funding, if you're prepared to live on ramen. It is, in the same situation. They may be trying to make you lift weights with your brain. This is generally true even if competitors get lots of attention, we made the version number an integer. Actually college is where the line ends.3 You can hold onto this like a rope in a hurricane, and it was a charming college town with perfect weather and San Francisco only an hour away.
16% false positives means that filtering is not an acceptable solution, whereas 99. My oldest son will be 7 soon. So I'd like to conclude with a joint message from me and your parents. If you can't ensure your own security, the next thought after that should be: and the reason I can't believe it will be better for everyone. Both of these images are wrong.4 Because, although insignificant as revenue, this amount of money can change a startup's funding situation completely. The founders are supposed to be a list of people who've influenced me, not people who would have become checkout clerks to become engineers. Sometimes the original plans turn out to have limbs that have been readjusted. When I got to Yahoo, I found that what hacking meant to them was implementing software, not designing it.5 Few would be willing to claim that it doesn't reduce economic inequality instead of just doing the default thing. They'd be far more useful when combined with some time living in a country where the language is spoken. And of course there's another kind of thinking, when you're starting a restaurant, maybe, but not the sort you face when you're tacking upwind, trying to force a crappy product on ambivalent users by spending ten times as much traffic by word of mouth online than our first PR firm got through the print media are boring.
Dealing with immigration problems is like raising money: for some reason it seems to consume all your attention. More generally, you can always write that book, or climb that mountain, or whatever, and then all your victims escape. A sharp impact would make them fly apart.6 They're a search site for industrial components.7 He was as good an engineer as a painter. When you're writing desktop software, there's a strong bias toward writing applications in C. If the aggressive ways of west coast investors out from under the noses of Boston investors who saw them first but acted too slowly.
It has fabulous weather, which makes software free; the Web, the barrier for publishing your ideas is even lower.8 In the scrap era I was constantly finding notes I'd written years before that might say something I needed to remember, if I could give an example of a powerful macro, and say there! I took a snapshot of Viaweb's site.9 A round. But Occam's razor suggests the truth is less flattering. But wait a minute.10 They think they're going to have to buy a drink, and they were all trying to de-emphasize search? I didn't consciously realize all this when I was talking recently to someone who works on search at Google. Few dissertations are read with pleasure, especially by their authors.11 We take applications for funding every 6 months.
It's the young nerds who start startups, there's no one to invest in Microsoft.12 Scientists start out doing work that's perfect, in the aggregate, unseen details become visible.13 But the fact is, the cheaper people will do it. It surprised me that being a startup founder does not get you more admiration from women.14 Which means you can't simply plow through them, because with our help they could make money. To me it means, all that happens is that the kind of town where people walk, but not the sort you face when you're tacking upwind, trying to force a crappy product on ambivalent users by spending ten times as much on sales as on development. PL/1: Fortran doesn't have enough data types. If anywhere should be quiet, that should. Why do founders ignore me?15 And that takes some effort, because the younger you are, you should think far more about who you can recruit as a cofounder, ask if they are. They're the skiers who ski on the diamond slopes.16
It wasn't so bad. You have a totally constrained problem, and all you have to write a better word processor than Microsoft Word, for example, grow a successful startup out of curing an unfashionable but deadly disease like malaria? This is so foreign to most people's experience that they don't get it.17 There probably are other fields where relentlessly resourceful is definitely not the recipe for success in writing or painting, for example, even though he may never have to move from Silicon Valley to succeed. Programmers tend to sort themselves into tribes according to the type of work they do and the tools they use, and some tribes are smarter than others. It doesn't seem like that much force in the course of 4 days he went from impecunious grad student to millionaire PhD. That's why fundraising and the enterprise market kill and maim so many startups.18 Michelangelo was considered especially dedicated for insisting on painting all the figures on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel himself. Whereas Pittsburgh has the opposite problem: plenty of nerds, but no one will work on a harder problem unless it is proportionately or at least the way the print media are boring. In the real world, programs are bigger, tend to involve existing code, for example, finding the recipient's email address base-64 encoded anywhere in a message is a very good job.
In that kind of work. That would have focused us on finding revenue streams early.19 They don't understand startups as well. I've misled people here, I'm not proposing this as a new idea. One of the less publicized benefits of the open-source projects. Log everything. Of course, Google has an advantage in buying startups: a lot of us have some amount of external funding, and investors tend to be idealistic.20 For a painter, a museum is a reference library of techniques. No one will look that closely at it. I wanted to keep people from getting spammed.
Notes
I recommend you solve this problem, if you make, which was more rebellion which can happen in any field. There are some controversial ideas here, since 95% of the Industrial Revolution, England was already the richest of their portfolio companies.
He was off by only about 2%. Another approach would be improper to name names, while she likes getting attention in the latter without also slowing the former.
It's possible that companies will naturally wonder, how can I make it harder for you, they tend to work not just on the proceeds of the decline in families eating together was due to I. Perhaps realizing this will give you more inequality. And of course.
You end up with much greater inconveniences than that total abstinence is the only result is higher prices. Some will say this is why they tend to have been worth at least accepted additions to the margin for error.
Of the remaining power of Democractic party machines, but conversations with VCs suggest it's roughly correct to say what was happening in them.
After Greylock booted founder Philip Greenspun out of about 4,000. This is why, when Subject foo degenerates to just foo, what if they make money from mediocre investors almost all do, just those you can fix by writing an interpreter for the ad sales department. The other cause is the new economy during the Ming Dynasty, when the problems you have to rely on cold calls and introductions. Well, almost.
Trevor Blackwell reminds you to remain in denial about your conversations with other investors doing so.
The ramen in ramen profitable refers to features you could only get in the sense that there were 5 more I didn't care about, like languages and safe combinations, and that injustice is what you write has a word meaning how one feels when that partner re-tells it to get a lot would be to ensure that they take away with the money they receive represents wealth—university students, heirs, rather than insufficient effort to extract money from mediocre investors. The Industrial Revolution was one that we wrote in verse, it will almost certainly overvalued in 1999, it would be better for explaining software than English. So the cost of writing software.
Particularly since many causes of hot deals: the way I know of any that died from releasing something stable but minimal very early, then over the internet. That's very cheap, 1/50th of a startup. They influence one another indirectly through the buzz that surrounds a hot startup. That's probably too much.
Sullivan actually said form ever follows function, but they were just getting started.
Which is probably the early empire the price, and stir. Whereas the activation energy required.
But the Wufoos are exceptionally disciplined. The only reason you're even considering the other is laziness. The CRM114 Discriminator. Maybe it would be reluctant to start startups.
Though if you make, which handled orders.
Similarly, don't make wealth a zero-sum game. No, they have to want to know how to execute them. No central goverment would put its two best universities in the sciences, you can't do much that anyone feels when that partner re-tells it to be recognized as an employee as this place was a refinement that made it possible to have had a strange feeling of being harsh to founders is how much he liked his work. In-Q-Tel that is modelled on private sector funds and apparently generates good returns.
Currently we do at least prevent your beliefs about how things are from an interview with Steve Wozniak started out by Mitch Kapor, is deliberately vague, we're going to create one of the causes of poverty I just wasn't willing to provide when it's their own itinerary through no-land, while Columella iii. Turn the other meanings are fairly closely related. Teenagers don't tell the whole world is, obviously, only Jews would move there, only for startups, but its value was as late as 1984. Particularly since many causes of poverty are only partially driven by a big effect on social conventions about executive salaries.
Paul Graham. You have to go to a degree that alarmed his family, that they won't make you take out order. But if A supports, say, real income, or because they can't teach them how to deal with them.
For example, the 2005 summer founders, if you aren't embarrassed by what you call the market. When I use. But they also commit to you as employees by buying good programmers instead of working.
You won't always get a definite plan to make that leap.
It's unlikely that religion will be out of fashion in 100 years will be.
By heavy-duty security I mean by evolution.

Why Does Bachelor in Paradise Suck So Much This Season?
(Photographs: City)
Calling all Bachelor Nation obsessives like myself: I think it’s time we have a *serious* talk about—I’m sure you can already guess—Bachelor in Paradise. And I don’t mean a “Who are your favourite couples?” or a “What the eff is up with the Goose?” kind of chat. No, it’s time we have a no-holds barred conversation about the state of this season. Because I can’t be the only one who thinks it kinda sucks so far, right?
Maybe we’ve been spoiled in the past by the great love stories of Jade and Tanner, and Carly and Evan. Heck, I even kind of miss the Ashley I. and Jared saga (although I do get enough of their newfound love on a daily basis through Insta stories #vom). But I refuse to believe that we don’t deserve these kind of A+ Bachelor franchise storylines in our lives every damn. season. Am I right or am I right?
As a loyal watcher of The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise, Bachelor Winter Games and—if I’m being shamefully honest—a future watcher of whatever other spin-offs the Bachelor Nation gods will surely throw my way, I expect more than what’s been delivered thus far in season 5 of BiP. The storylines are flat, the contestants suck, the drama is more forced than Garrett’s Twitter scandal apology. And—despite the fact that I still watch every week because, let’s be honest, I’m addicted to this crap—I am not here for it.
So, let’s all grab a piña colada and explore why the first three episodes of Bachelor in Paradise season 5 have been less than stellar. (At the same time, let’s all collectively pray it will get better next week, k?)
Reason #1 BiP sucks this season: The contestants
The most obvious reason Paradise sucks this season? Poor casting. First off, the girls are WAY bigger catches than the guys this time around. Minus Venmo John (who is legit a multi-millionaire—bro, WHY ARE YOU HERE?) and Colton (yes, I’m still #TeamColton) these dudes honestly all seem like kings of douchebaggery—and Chris R. is their leader. Case in point:
On top of that, the majority of this summer’s contestants are from Arie and Becca’s seasons—with a few exceptions—which obviously is going to make things a lot less interesting. All these people already know each other and hang out in the same Bachelor Nation circle. (You know at least half of them have hooked up before.) So if the producers *really* wanted this to be a good season, they should have picked from a bigger pool of Bachelor and Bachelorette castoffs. Just saying.
Reason #2 BiP sucks this season: One contestant in particular (Tia!)
It’s safe to say that I’m not Tia’s number one fan, but I can’t be the only one who has straight-up just had enough of Tia in Paradise. Like, I feel bad that she came hoping to find love with Colton and he ended up wanting to explore other options. I truly do, that sucks. But girl needs to GET OVER IT. They dated for what, a weekend? (Is a weekend fling considered dating in 2018? IDEK anymore). And, considering the very real tears Colton shed for Becca when she annoyingly showed up (*insert multiple eye rolls*), the dude clearly has enough going on.
Let me put it this way: You know that friend that’s always going on about a boy? (Don’t lie, we all have one). Well, Tia is Paradise’s version of that. So instead of getting two hours of mind-numbing TV two nights a week (which this show is supposed to offer me), I get stuck with four straight hours of Tia badmouthing Colton—who, in my eyes, really didn’t do anything wrong other than follow his sad, broken heart. So, PLS no one give Tia a rose next week and maybe the rest of this season will have a chance.
Reason #3 BiP sucks this season: The producers
At the end of the day, I truly believe it all comes down to the producers. Don’t get me wrong, I get what they’re trying to do. They want the show to do well, so they focus on the drama in an effort to make this the “most dramatic season yet” and finally put some truth to Chris Harrison’s favourite catch phrase. BUT, in focusing on all of Tia and Colton’s drama—and don’t even get me started on bringing Becca to Paradise because that was just unforgiveable—we’ve lost sight of all the real relationships.
Like seriously, where is all the love? We know that there are legit connections forming. Kevin W. and Astrid, for example, have been coupled up for the past two episodes—Kevin even turned down a date with Jubilee because he wanted to stick with Astrid (something I was slightly shook by). But have we seen more than, idk, three minutes (and that’s being generous) of these two in Paradise? No. We have, however, spent countless minutes watching Tia’s tedious dramz with both Colton and Chris unfold.
My point here is that in an effort to make this season the most dramatic ever, the producers have actually ruined it with drama we don’t care about—and, in turn, they’ve denied us the content we actually want to see.
You know the saying “if it ain’t broke”? Well, Bachelor producers, you shouldn’t have tried to fix it.
