"It takes HOW LONG?" Black Hair is an Art (pt.2)
(This is part two of the hair lessons, focusing on writing/narratives. If you want to know how the styles LOOK, refer to part 1 and its addendum)
Now that you know what our hair actually looks like, we’re going to discuss incorporating that into your writing (original fic, fanfic, webcomics, anything with a narrative). You don’t HAVE to give us a dissertation on "how you studied 'The Black People’s Hair'" in your story. That’s not what I’m asking you to do. I’m just asking you to CONSIDER the effort and existence of it. The same way you put effort into discussing nonblack hair textures? Should be the sort of tenderness and care you put into discussing ours. It does not stand to reason that I have read thousands of stories describing "the silky, black/blonde tresses/waves that fell down their pale back as their lover ran their fingers through them", but Black readers have nothing of the sort to compare to without seeking our own authors out. Our hair deserves some loving and adoration too!
This is a very long post describing hairstyles and how they can correspond to your character's design and decisions, so I'll put a read more here. The sections are organized into 'Twist Out', 'Afros', 'Locs', 'Braids', 'Black Men', and 'Straight Hair' if you Ctrl F. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take your time to read all of this at some point though, as I put a lot of resources and explanation into this. I'm trusting you!
The History
As I discussed in the last lesson, our hair is incredibly important to us, and part of that includes the vulnerability and trust that comes along with access to it. This is due to a long history of oppression. There’s a racist history of making Black women hide our hair, as if it would ‘tempt white men’ away, regardless of it were due to actual attraction or the (more likely) rape of Black women. There’s a racist history of touching our hair, as though we are animals or zoo exhibits. We aren’t just going to let anyone touch our heads, so DON'T write that, unless you are doing so to show that it is a microaggression towards your character. Even now, cultural appropriation is rampant. If I were to wear cornrows with hoops, it'd be seen as 'ghetto' or 'gang-like'. Meanwhile, it is a fashion statement for white women. When Miles G Morales showed up in Across the Spiderverse, animators specifically chose cornrows for him, but many people mistakenly took it to me that he was 'rougher and tougher' than the original Miles. This was a racist perception! Hearing the Fade get hyped up in the news as the 'Travis Kelce', when Black men and especially NFL players have been wearing it for DECADES to crickets... it hurts lmao. Point is, you can describe and respect Black hair without being racist about it. Okay? Okay.
Vulnerability
YOUR CHARACTERS NEED TO BE CLOSE BEFORE ALLOWING THEM TO TOUCH THEIR HAIR!!!
It needs to be someone they TRUST wholeheartedly. Again, do NOT let a stranger touch their hair unless it’s meant to be an uncomfortable situation!
Consider CONSENT! Consent is ALWAYS beautiful! Have your other characters (Black or not) ASK to touch your Black characters’ hair! And not in the ‘Oh can I touch it?’ way. But if they’re really close friends or dating, have them ask to help do their braids, or wash their hair, or even just to stroke their hair and face! Or if your Black character is injured with a head wound, and they have to tend to them, have them ask! The asking shows a level of care and respect for your Black character and their body! At any point the consent may be revoked, and that needs to be respected! If they let them tend their head wound, but then smack their hand away after, that’s not ‘rude’- they’re allowed to do that, especially to signify that they aren’t at that level of trust yet. That's still angsty!
One great example of love from a Black character is doing their partner’s hair, or allowing their partner to do their hair. The ‘Hair-washing’ fic is a common thing in fanfiction; we all understand how that shows the depth of the trust in the relationship between the characters. How would you write about that trust with a Black character, if you don’t know what goes into taking care of their hair? If you don’t even know what their hair looks or feels like? The lack of awareness will show, and what should be a beautiful, deep moment will fall flat for Black readers. I wrote one once for my character with locs, and it honestly made me tear up because I realized that I’d never seen one, at least not in the majority white spaces that the fandoms I was in were.
Think about it- how often have you read a hair-washing fic with a Black character? Was it accurate? Would you know if it was accurate? Have you spoken to or heard anyone Black in your fandom space talk about it? Do you know anyone Black in your fandom space to ask? It’s things like this that we have to consider!
If you have a character that is nonblack in a relationship with your Black character, that honestly reveals even more trust because there’s a long history (again) behind that NOT happening! In life, we can’t go to the same places. I can’t go to a white hair salon or barbershop. They won’t know what to do! People are allowed to go through hair school without learning how to work with different, thicker textures. It’s not right nor fair, but it’s a part of the casual, systemic racism in our lives.
My feelings on what Lestat symbolizes aside, the scene where he plays with Louis’ curls in AMC's IWTV was an intelligent way to show that closeness, and how a nonblack character would affectionately play with a Black character’s hair! How he works with the curl in his fingers, rather than trying to pet Louis or run his fingers through- it was an intelligent move on Sam and Jacob’s part as actors to understand that THAT’S how that would go down!
If you have a character that wants to show a violation of your Black characters’ space, touching/harming our hair is cruelty on a very personal level that will generate an extreme reaction.
Think About Your Character!
When thinking about your Black character’s hairstyle, you need to think about your character themselves! What do they do every day? What are their hobbies? Are they Type A, Type B personality? Do they have a lot of time? Are they always in a rush? Are they noncommittal? Are they self-conscious? Artsy? Serious? Are they in a time period where the means to care for their hair are limited?
People make jokes and comments about how Black women don’t like getting our hair wet and dismiss our concerns. But it’s not out of ‘silliness’ or vanity. What you consider ‘just hair’ may have taken days of planning in advance and HOURS of our time! We put a lot of thought and effort into our hair, and it will easily shatter the illusion for your Black readers if you describe our hair poorly or create an unlikely scenario with it. It’s not a joke!
Some Terms:
Protective styles- a style that allows our hair to ‘rest’ with minimal manipulation
‘Tender-headed’- some people’s scalps are more sensitive to the tightness of styles, so it’ll hurt a little bit more and require some more gentleness (Regardless it’s still going to hurt for a bit after a fresh style)
Bonnets- a silk/satin cap of varying lengths that we wear at night to protect our hair and keep the moisture in
Loc Sock- same idea, but for locs
Durag- keeps short haircuts protected; can even help create the wave pattern that many Black men enjoy
Scarf- same idea as the bonnets, except scarfs can be used specifically for straight hairstyles to wrap them up to keep it straight and neat
(It'll seem real legit if you include your Black characters wearing their headcoverings at night! I remember laughing while reading Twilight because I knew that if Edward snuck into my room at night, he'd see me in my scarf or bonnet lmao.)
General Hair Care:
While I don’t completely agree with some of the advertising in this first one (it’s the internet. Can’t go nowhere without someone trying to hawk something) it’s cool in general to explain how our hair looks the way it does.
If you have Black children OCs, it’s important to consider that their parents have to do their hair, and how that will be its own experience! (It can be very stressful for Black children to get their hair done, as it takes a long time and can be physically uncomfortable. There are plenty of stories of burnt ears and tugged tangles and not very nice old women. Children are children! Keep in mind how they may behave while getting the style of your choice.
Moisturizing to keep healthy
Twist Outs
Cute twist out styles
Twist outs are a style that takes overnight to hold, or maybe even a few days! The cool thing is that the twists themselves can be the style! So the tighter you want their curls to be, the longer they’ll wear the twists in. If you want to describe your character with tighter curls, there needs to be a section of time where their hair remains in the twists! If your character has an event, and they want twists… this needs to be done in advance. Your character will NOT untwist them the day of, unless they want weak, limp curls (or you want the scene to compose of them having weak curls).
How long they'll last depends on the activity of your character! If all they do is work a desk job, or they don’t sweat very much, the twists can last some time! But if they sweat, or wear hats or caps, it’s not going to last long. Maybe a week.
Pros: Very versatile! If you have a character that loves trying new looks and enjoy being spontaneous, twist outs are for them! Easy! If your Black character is younger, or haven’t done their hair before, this is a great way for them to start working with their hair! Doesn’t take long (to do)! If your character is in a rush, and they do their twists, they can go just about anywhere. If they’re not self-conscious, this will be just fine.
Cons: It cannot get wet again, or the style will puff up back into your natural texture. It does not last long enough to say “oh my character went on a two year long fantasy adventure with this style.” If you want your character to have a twist out the whole time, they’re going to have to take time to do it. It would be cool if you incorporate a scene where they’re working on their hair, maybe in the background while everyone’s discussing plans or something. Just a reminder that their hair isn’t just staying magically twisted (unless they have the magic to do that).
Afros
Afro Style Guide, Style Guide for Men (works for any gender though)
Wash & Gos are just that- wash it (or really, condition it, you don’t have to shampoo it every time) dry with a t-shirt (to prevent breakage), put some oil and a light crème on it, fluff it up and you’re good to go! Maybe an hour at max and can be done while getting dressed in the morning!
Pros: Easy! If they’re doing a full, combed out afro, it’s not as simple, it will take more time. And at night it has to be plaited so that it maintains its length, otherwise it will tangle. But other than that, that’s still not all that hard. They can show off their curls! Black characters can and should have pride in their hair. It’s beautiful. This is the opportunity that you as an author can describe the pure texture of their hair, how it shines in the light, how the coils look, how soft it is! Romanticize Black hair the same way you do anyone else’s!
Cons: None really! Afros are wonderful! Just make sure that your character has a way to keep their hair from getting tangled. Just because it’s easy doesn’t mean there’s no maintenance! A pick, a bonnet, oil and water go a long way!
Locs
Five stages of locs
A person who does locs is a loctician.
Can be palm-rolled or interlocked/crocheted
I cannot emphasize enough that you do not want just anyone doing their locs! They can really mess up someone’s hair if they don’t know what they’re doing. I say that to say, for your character, if they don’t trust the person doing their hair… they should. They should not be walking into anyone’s place to get their hair locked; they’d do research first.
The time it takes locs to ‘bud’ (that is, to actually form the loc) depends on the texture of their hair. But it can take up to 3 months to even a year for them to actually ‘loc up’. So if your character just got locs, they’re not going to look neat. They’re going to be frizzy.
As long as they’re washing their hair, keeping it moisturized, and not using wax products (DO NOT HAVE ANY BLACK CHARACTER USE WAX PRODUCTS IT IS BAD FOR BLACK HAIR) it’ll last forever! Locs are incredibly strong, especially the thicker they get! It is recommended that locs are retwisted every six weeks, but if your character has freeform locs, doesn’t have the money or time right now, or they just aren’t that pressed, they can grow indefinitely.
Something cute to write in your stories: sometimes locs do just… fall out. Not the whole thing! But the same way thin hair gets everywhere… sometimes the ends of thin locs just… fall off! You’ll find little buds on the ground. This happens especially in the budding stage.
Pros: Very low daily maintenance! At most they’ll need a bonnet or loc sock, and oil/water mix to spritz and massage in. Strong style that can hold any look- buns, curls, etc. They can be dyed, though it will take a long time to do so. I say that to say, if you want your character to have bright green locs, go for it!!
Cons: Low daily, but HIGH wash day maintenance! So if your character has a fancy date or something to go on, they should not be getting their hair retwisted the same day, or at least not so close to. It’s going to be shiny, oily, and tight, which can cause discomfort. Give them the day to let the hair settle!
Locs are PERMANENT!! This isn’t a bad thing, as much as it is a ‘KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING BEFORE YOU DO IT’ thing. Technically they can be combed out, but that would take a very long time and very precise effort, and most people aren’t going through all that. They’re just going to cut them off and start fresh. If you have a character that would balk at such a choice, locs aren’t for them. If you have a character that’s picky and choosy, that likes versatility, that can’t make up their mind, do NOT give them locs unless they’re making the conscious choice to commit. (Again, this is subjective! Maybe they have locs because their mother died and it reminds them of her! Okay! That works!) If you have a character that’s vain, or at least doesn’t like looking awkward… unless they’re going to style up the awkward stage, they’re not going to want locs. (Awkward stage: the first two stages get considered awkward because the locs look messy. This is because they’re turning from curls to locs!)
Braids
Styles
How long braids can take depend on the style. Box braids can take 10-12 hours to do! Microbraids? You HAVE to have multiple people or you'll be there for damn near a day (and that's assuming you have a masterful braider!)
How long they last depend on your character! If they're like me as a kid, I didn't care how I looked, so my mom got me cheap braids and let me run free for two summer months. So if your Black character is a carefree child! Go for it. But if they're a teen or adult (or are very concerned about how they look) a month to six weeks is about how long braids can stay in before your new growth shows. A character that is usually trimmed and proper having loads of new growth over their braids may symbolize that they don’t have it all together anymore.
Pros: Protective style! Great way to let your character have minimal daily maintenance; oil and water and something to cover it. SOME braided styles allow for high activity and even rain without changing. It depends on the hair that’s been braided in, as well as the style. Incredibly versatile! They can have multi-colored braids, long braids, short braids, beads, trinkets… if your character is creative and bubbly and likes to experiment, the sky is the limit! That can symbolize their artistic expression, just by describing what they look like! So long as they have the time, they can have any look and style they want. No need to commit too long.
If your character is capable of doing their own braids (and locs, btw), they’re amazing. Like… that’s mad respect for them. If you describe your character being able to do their own braids, they’ve got amazing arm strength, patience, and skill. That skilled dexterity can be revealed as a trait of theirs through that alone.
Cons: They take a LONG TIME. Your character is not going anywhere. If they’re getting braids… they’re not going anywhere. If you write your character doing anything fancy the day of, depending on the type of braids, Black readers are not going to believe you. Even if it did get finished, it would be very tight. I currently have a poll going on, and so far, a good majority of the 10+ answers are braids! It cost MONEY. It is NOT CHEAP to get braids done! If your character is poor as a church mouse, they will be doing those braids with their friend in front of youtube. Because it can be in the hundreds of dollars. (Don’t get me started on hair culture right now; BACK IN MY DAY IT COST-)
Hairstyles on Black Men
I want to specifically give space and applause to these hairstyles on Black men, because we REALLY don’t give Black men enough credit for all the creativity they show with their hair! And again, with The Killmonger being the choice style in all these damn vidya games despite almost no Black man I know choosing it as a look… PLEASE LOOK! WE HAVE OPTIONS! Try describing how gorgeous these looks can be on your Black men characters! It would be very nice.
Straight Hair
Well, I was going to explain, but ol ‘Guest Writer’ here pretty much lays it all out! So just go ahead and read this article lol.
Just to re-emphasize, straight hair is NOT something that just grows out of our head that way! It takes effort! So if you have a character that doesn’t feel like maintaining straight hair, they shouldn’t have it! If your character has natural hair and lives in a rainy or humid city, they’re going to be fighting that weather to keep it straight- make sure that’s consistent with their personality!
My best friend used to wash and flatiron her hair every day. Like, laser focused on looking that good, Type A shit (she’s a top money banker now, so I guess it worked out). If you have a character like that, it’s fine! If they’re lazy any other time of the day, they’re not suddenly going to be waking up at 5am to flat iron their hair. It’s not consistent.
Conclusion
That’s pretty much what I have! I’m not the guru on all things Black hair, and I obviously cannot encompass every potential scenario you may have for your characters. Really, my intention here is to get you to think about how our hair reflects our character and personalities, and how when you write and/or draw a Black character, you have that ability! And when you’re able to incorporate that naturally, it makes your Black readers feel seen, like you actually cared about that character enough to give them just as much description as your nonblack characters. You don’t have to be a master at it! Just… occasionally the little things that we can go ‘oh, yeah!’ at would be nice. An equivalent effort would be nice.
Remember, it’s the thought that counts, but the action that delivers!

Roll A Die, Roll A Poison - Evocation and Provocation
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
>Yan! Aventurine x Fem! Reader
>Word count: ~2.4k
>a/n: before anyone asks, no this isn't a series. I'm just writing a drabble from the same universe this is not an established series. very subtle yandere themes. just wholesome in general. the backstory of this in my mind is not so wholesome
Part 1
Tumblr media
Intrusive thoughts typically pop in uninvited and leave just as so. You do not let them stay for long lest they marinate and tempt you to cook them to feast on the ‘delicious’ outcome. However… however, this one has been festering in your mind ever since it made itself known. It has started rotting and mould is certainly growing on it, yet you are still allowing it to decay in your mind, waiting for the opportunity to let it seduce you into throwing it onto the grill.
You shamelessly pin the blame on Aventurine. After all, he was the one who said he’d like to experiment hairstyles on your hair, even going as far as to open video tutorials and search appropriate hairstyles for your hair texture. Unfortunately for him, the moment the blond took off his gloves, you had grabbed your hair protectively and uttered something about not trusting anyone with your hair.
Conveniently ignoring the fact that you were invested in which video tutorial he should follow, you declined his offer with a plethora of silly excuses (seriously, why did you say you’re afraid he might end up tangling it horribly? he treats his hair like his first born child he is obviously not so stupid as to do so). Having been let off the hook graciously by your captor unwilling living partner, you had carried on your merry day completely oblivious to the thoughts silently crawling from the dark in your mind.
Now you are here. Side eyeing him as he sheds off his fur lined coat followed by his hat. He turns around, looking at you as he discards his rose coloured sunglasses. The former two are placed onto a chair while the latter is placed on top of them. Irises more vibrant than those glasses remain fixed on you, and you grimace at the way the corners of his eyes crinkle from his smile.
That never happens outside these four walls. He never smiles like that outside.
Though you are lying on the bed with a book lying open over your chest, he makes no move to turn the situation into something intimate. Perhaps all his previous failed attempts have finally taught him something. Or maybe he’s just enjoying the view of you on his bed. He’s a simple minded creature after all.
Aventurine chuckles when you continue giving him a weird look. “You look relaxed.”
“No thanks to you.”
“Ouch.” He turns to the dressing table. First he takes off his wristwatch then his rings. The other accessories follow, and you strike when he least expects it.
“Aventurine,” you call, “I need something.”
He turns to face you instantly instead of looking at your reflection in the mirror like he usually does. At first he searches your face for any hints of what your request could be, yet his gaze drops to the cover of the open book lying on your chest. You close it and place it beside you face down promptly, cheeks burning because it’s one of those smutty romance books that he absolutely does not need to get access to.
Aventurine raises a brow at your antics, but humours you nonetheless. “This is rare. What would a beautiful woman like you need? I hope I’m not lacking in taking care of you.”
“I do agree that your knowledge is lacking in regards to women, but my request is… well, not something typical of me.”
He grows more curious, moving to the foot of the bed as he undoes his thigh garter before moving onto his belt. The two are placed onto the bed before he urges you to continue.
A nervous gulp precedes you voicing your request. The edges of your lips are stopped from scowling at yourself. “I need… I wish to have some time with your hair. There’s something I wish to try out.”
The reaction you receive is him unbelievingly blinking at you. His hands remain over the buttons over his waistcoat, frozen with twitching fingers. “My hair…?”
You sit up, nodding. He recovers quickly, clearing his throat. “My, that’s forward of you. What do you wish to do with it? You aren’t planning to turn me bald, are you?”
“As hilarious as that would be, no.”
“Then?” The waistcoat is unbuttoned, and he is currently shrugging it off. “If I am going to give you some time alone with my hair, it’s only fair I know your intentions.”
You swallow your pride, cursing yourself for tossing such rotten food onto a skillet. “I… I just want to braid it.”
Aventurine looks at you.
You look at him.
Aventurine continues looking at you.
You look at his waistcoat halfway down his arms.
Aventurine blinks at you.
You do not blink back.
“Is that it…?”
You nod at his question, and he clearly looks like he’s holding in a laugh. “My my. You’re being bashful as though you’re asking me to marry you,” he grins.
“This is worse than marrying you.”
“I’m glad to hear you changed your mind on nothing being worse than being mine forever.”
A glare is directed his way. His ability to remember your words is downright disturbing. Nevertheless, he places his waistcoat on the bed before crossing his arms. That damned smile is back on Aventurine’s face. The smile he has when he’s brewing something in his mind. Something that you would definitely not want to ingest.
“On one condition,” he raises a finger. “I want something in return.”
You raise a curious brow. “What would that be?”
 A response is not given right away. Instead he peels off his gloves, placing them next to the waistcoat on the bed. Then, he tilts his head at you before voicing his price. “I want a kiss. On the lips more specifically.”
To say you choked on your words would be an understatement.
He taps his lips with his bare hand, and you make a horrible cringing face. “With tongue would be preferable.”
You shake your head profusely at his demand. What does he take you for? “Absolutely not. Anywhere but your lips is fine. Don't make me regret trusting you enough to ask you for something.”
“Aw.” Aventurine visibly deflates, eyes falling to his discarded waistcoat on the bed. “We've kissed before. I didn't think… wait. You said anywhere but my lips.”
A different meaning of your words comes to mind, and you slap your palm over your mouth in horror. If that devious smile on his face is anything to go by, he's having ideas. “No. Don't get ideas. I do not mean what you think I mean.”
“Relax. So no kiss?”
“No.”
“Not even if I bat my eyelashes all pretty?”
“No.”
He sighs, loud and dramatic on purpose to rile you up. “I still remember the last time we kissed. It felt like you were eating my insides.”
“You had forced it upon me by kissing me first,” you accuse. “I know your games now.”
A finger points in your direction, accusing yet remindful. “I admit I kissed you first, but you kissed me back harder. You were the one who started using your tongue.”
“It was a spur of the moment thing! Don't compare that to now.”
Aventurine sighs wistfully, as though he’s remembering a fond memory. To him it is, but to you it is not. “Don’t be shy,” he coos. “I remember. We were alone, and you were absolutely into it.”
A phantom sensation of his hands all over you returns, the image of his eyes seemingly more vibrant before he closes them and kisses you again accompanying it. It heats your cheeks and renders you unable to hold eye contact with him. Regardless, you clear your throat and try to negotiate again.
After what seemed like forever, he finally settles with a kiss to the cheek as his payment (he declined your insistence to kiss his hand instead). Alas, Aventurine had another demand. To receive his payment after you’re done with his hair. Which brings you here.
He sits cross legged on the bed while you remain kneeled on the mattress behind him. It’s hard to braid his hair. The longer parts are uneven since it’s longer on his right, so you thought you would attempt a messy bun with whatever braid you could make. Unfortunately, that did not work out. The layers poked out and it was mostly just hair poking out and less braid.
A sigh and you try again. “You good back there?” Aventurine’s question is shut down with a harsh ‘shush’ and you return to your battle. Out of pure frustration, you grab the brush and brush back all his hair despite the tangles and the way his head gets pulled back with it.
“Hey, be gentle!”
You simply tut. “This is how mothers make their daughter’s hair in the morning before school. This is a core childhood experience recreation. Savour it while it lasts.”
The pout is evident in his voice. “You’re simply making excuses for being rough.”
All of his hair is grabbed into a half-assed ponytail. Bangs are still poking out and a lot of layers from the side are too short to even be grabbed into it. Seriously, how intricate is his hairstyle? How does the barber even maintain this?
You let go of all of it. Fingers shake the hair to let it settle according to his natural hair pattern, and when you’re satisfied, you pick up a small section from near his bangs. You don’t grab all his bangs, only incorporating some of them and leaving the rest to frame his face.
An idea pops into your head, a good one this time thankfully, and you start creating a dutch braid from there. When you reach the nape of his neck, you realise your mistake and undo the braid just an inch. Then, you try to incorporate the longer strands of his hair into it, yet when it simply pokes out instead of being tamed, you settle with ending the braid at his nape with a low ponytail.
The braid is loosened a little for volume, but you retract your hand when a few strands start poking out. He’s been surprisingly quiet, you note. However, one peek at his face and you see that his eyes are closed.
They instantly open, already side-eyeing you.
“What the hell!”
He chuckles. “What?”
“That’s creepy! Don’t do that again,” you grimace. Aventurine doesn’t seem to mind. He even seems amused.
“So,” he drawls, “may I see the finished product?”
You take a good look at your work. Honestly, his hair is so soft and pretty you’d ask if he could grow it out a bit just so you could braid it more freely. You wouldn’t of course, but it doesn’t hurt to think about it.
You dismiss him, “You’re free to look in a mirror.” As expected, he gets up right away, going to the dressing table and looking at himself with widened eyes. He inspects your work, fingertips gently running over the braid trailing from near his hairline to his nape. The hair in a ponytail is brought to drape over his right shoulder, and he smiles, satisfied.
More of his face is visible with the wispy bangs, but you have to admit. He looks gorgeous. It’s almost unfair that he’s pretty.
“Now then…” Aventurine turns to you, a smile on face as he continues. “My payment for allowing you to have your way with my precious hair.”
On the other hand, you sigh. “I make you pretty and work hard, yet I still get punished. Where’s the worker’s right’s association now?”
“Gone. Decimated. My kiss, dear. Now.”
Your curiosity has led you to this. As you slowly get off the bed and move closer to him, he watches you with attentive eyes. It is when you stand in front of him that he smiles, body language obviously impatient.
Out of simple desire to be generous, you first cup his face then dive in to kiss his left cheekbone. When you pull away after the quick peck, you’re surprised to see his cheeks slowly turning red.
You blink at him in disbelief. “Are you… are you blushing?”
Unfortunately, he recovers quickly as always, deflecting it to you despite his flustered face. “The woman I love just kissed me. Of course I’m going to blush.”
Now you are at the receiving end of embarrassment. It’s unfair. It’s so unfair how he’s still able to stir up feelings within you. It’s unfair how you still care about him. It’s unfair how you can’t let him leave the house without having a proper meal, and it’s unfair that you still send him the same “stay hydrated” sticker on his phone everyday when he’s not around you.
It’s unfair because you want to hate him so bad for what he has done, but you can never forget the questions he used to ask you whenever you both spent time together. They were hushed and quickly brushed off, deemed insignificant after you gave your answer and dubbed “just messing around”. You can never forget them because you know he meant them.
He meant every single one. He just didn’t want you to peel away the layers of his person.
“Woohoo. Aventurine to [Name]? Is there still a signal?”
You snap back, gaze rising from your feet to his face. “Wow, I really lost you there,” he says. “Come on. The kiss wasn’t that bad.”
“You’re right,” you breathe out. After a few seconds of thinking, you excuse yourself. However, as soon as you are out the door, Aventurine’s concern turns into curiosity as he promptly grabs the book you were reading earlier off the bed. A picture of its cover is snapped, and it is placed onto the nightstand.
Unbeknownst to you, Aventurine downloaded a pdf and started reading. Not without taking a picture of your master hairstyling skills of course. While you were regaining your bearings in a different room, he had been searching up summaries and key events of the book.
Perhaps you might be in for a different game next time.

There are many, MANY scenes in which you could pick apart the ever-loving shit out of Fitz's dialogue and his actions, or just look at how his character is treated from the POV the scene is being told from and compare that to what objectively might be happening.
But one of my favorite's has got to be the Unlocked healing center scene from Keefe's POV, because GOLLY was Fitz just bagged on in that scene, in an almost undetectable way.
(This also isn't meant to be hate on Keefe btw. He's a fine character, not my absolute favorite, but there's no reason to hate on him. It just so happens that Keefe's POV of Fitz is especially patronizing in this scene).
First of all, Shannon starts the scene with presenting us with how lonely and sad he was, just straight up:
”sadness
Nervousness
Regret
Loneliness
Plus a hefty dash of anger.
Coming straight from Fitz” (-Unlocked, idk what page lmao).
I mean, the man was grieving. He just broke up with his maybe girlfriend AND lost the only chance he had to finding his terrorist older brother (who might or might not want to end him and who has caused him and his family immense stress/trauma for the past 4 books if not their entire lives to a degree) in one fell swoop (because of the maybe girlfriend he trusted a lot, not to mention Fitz values trust almost more than he does love so you could basically say the girl he loved).
Me personally? I would just cease to exist after that, but here we have sad, nervous, regretful, lonely and angry Fitz in the healing center waiting for his maybe-bro to wake up. 
Once Keefe DID wake up, Fitz was nothing if not worried for Keefe and trying to comfort Keefe. Fitz was obviously GENUINELY worried for Keefe. Look at this:
”Fitz tore a hand through his boringly perfect hair. ‘I get why your mad. But I’m only trying to help. I know what you’re going through-‘
’Right-you totally know what it’s like to have you mom do deadly experiments on you,’ Keefe muttered. ‘I must’ve forgotten that part of the Vacker history.”
’Maybe not,’ Fitz conceded, ‘but I know what it’s like to have a traitor in the family. And I also remember how scary it is to wake up in one of these cots after being brutally attacked-just like I know how hard it is to talk about what’s wrong, because it feels like you’re admitting the Neverseen beat you. But they only win if you keep pretending everything’s normal, because you end up making the damage permanent.’
’I’m not damaged-‘
‘You’re right. That’s the wrong word.’ Fitz blew out a breath. ‘Look, all I’m trying to say is that I wouldn’t be walking right now if I hadn’t let Elwin help me. I probably wouldn’t even be alive. So I want to make sure you get the help you need-and you do need it, Keefe. No matter what you believe. But accepting help doesn’t make you weak. It just means you���re taking care of yourself.’”
Such an underrated Fitz moment, imo.
First and foremost, lets just take a second to point out the "boringly perfect" hair comment. I don't know why this stuck out to me, but it shows how differently these two characters think. While Fitz has his hair styled "perfectly" because its been his lifestyle to maintain a perfect façade, here we can see that Keefe STILL doesn't understand just what goes beyond this perfect façade of Fitz's. Keefe values freedom, loves rebellion, and his hairstyle reflects that. Keefe makes it messy, but a masterpiece. To Keefe, Fitz's hair is just generic and standard. Perfect, well presenting, but it follows the standard of whatever is considered "perfect" to elves, so we can see that it is repulsive to Keefe's nature.
This is much the same as how much Keefe sees the scale of what Alvar's disappearance has done to the Vacker Family. Keefe continues to reject the idea that the Vackers aren't as perfect as he once believed. As soon as Fitz even mentioned the idea of empathy for Keefe, the idea of relating to him, Keefe immediately rejects it, and rejects the idea that Fitz could have gone through any mental/emotional turbulence as a result of the horrendous situations Alvar has put him and his family through. I mean, for crying out loud, Fitz had literally tried to kill his brother in an emotional mess of conflicting feelings and guilt just two books ago, and unheard of crime for the elves. Fitz had to spend weeks and WEEKS in the healing center. Keefe was there when Alvar, on his deathbed, described how the "Vacker Legacy" was what drove him to a life of crime.
Yes, Keefe was having a rough time to put it lightly, but taking it out on others isn't justified (if you want to be mad at Fitz for taking his anger out on others, now you have to be mad at Keefe for taking his emotional distress out on his friend). We can certainly understand it, but we can't justify it, and because the POV is from a likable character, we're more willing to trust what the character says. Since Keefe presents Fitz's actions in a way that makes them seem appalling and jerk-y, and if Keefe presents this idea in his POV that Fitz is always Mr. Perfect and never has trouble in his family, then the readers are more likely to believe that. Objectively, based on what Fitz is saying and doing, we can see he's struggled and is struggling a lot. Fitz had to have worked on learning to receive help himself (asking for help is a SKILL, believe it or not) in order to truly explain how important it is to Keefe in the way he did.
Who just says "Accepting help doesn't make you weak, it just means you're taking care of yourself" and doesn't mean it in the kindest, most sincerest way ever?
Not just Keefe can take this advice, anyone should.
Side note: I also feel like he gave himself bad flashbacks to when he called Sophie damaged in book two when he accidentally used the word here. Ouch.
At another point in this scene, Keefe also shows how irrational he can be, as Fitz is simply trying to do the right thing and get Keefe the help he needs, and Keefe is ABSOLUTELY DEMONIZING Fitz for it. Keefe's health was Fitz's priority, and Fitz didn't necessarily care if he stepped on Keefe's toes to get him the help that he couldn't see he needed (Sophie was in the room as this point):
Unlocked page 561:
“‘Uh, you should probably step back, Sophie,’ Fitz warned. ‘I think your emotions are too strong for him.’
’No, they’re not!’ Keefe argued-and wow,did his voice sound strained. He cleared his throat and tried again. ‘Nothings wrong. I swear, I’m fine.’
’He keeps saying that,’ Fitz told her-because he was begging for a face-punch. And if the world hadn’t gotten so spinny, Keefe might’ve given it to him when Fitz added, ‘But Keefe’s been picking up all our emotions without even trying. And he’s always been able to do that with you, so I think you’re overwhelming him right now.’
’Okay, I’m done liking Captain Perfectpants,’ Ro announced.
‘Keefe was right there with her-which was probably why he blurted out, ‘Uh, for the record, most of the emotions are coming from you, Fitzy. You wouldn’t happen to have some unresolved feelings for anyone in this room, would you?’”
I'm not gonna lie, if somebody read my emotions and called me out on something that I was VERY touchy about, and was a relatively new blow, I would just leave the room. That was an A class jerk move right there.
Not saying Keefe IS a jerk, because all the characters have acted jerk-y in the series and everyone has their moments, but it was still pretty rude of Keefe to make that comment. What’s annoying is that nobody in the books seemed to react as though it is rude when Keefe makes these kinds of comments. If it was anybody else who had said that, there would be an apology required in order for that character to be redeemed. 
Keefe also literally wanted to PUNCH Fitz, because Fitz was...making sure Keefe stayed alive? Because Fitz cared enough about Keefe's health to make sure the details were pressed out and make sure the facts of the situation were clear? So Elwin could actually do his job??
Keefe hated Fitz in this moment because Fitz was being a practical, helpful guy, but from Keefe's perspective it just makes Fitz look like an asshole.
Ro’s unsolicited opinions are also very unhelpful, since Ro is written to be in support of what Keefe wants (or just in support of whatever will make Sokeefe happen…she’s kind of creepy about her Sokeefe obsession ngl), it makes her more likable and therefore the readers are more likely to trust what she says or take her opinion as their own. 
But Ro saying things like “I’m done liking Captain Perfect Pants” is rude, because it 1), insinuates she will only like someone based on how much they please her, and 2) denotes him to his perfect facade, which undermines his brilliant and complex character. 
Eventually, Keefe tried to apologize to Sophie in a telepathic conversation. He didn’t remotely consider apologizing to Fitz. 
I mean, Keefe was crazy terrified and hurting but...I don’t get how when Fitz was hurt and acted out he was suddenly “toxic and trash”, but when Keefe did the exact same thing nobody said anything.
And nobody even knows Fitz is hurt because nobody asks him. Nobody talks to him about how hard the Alvar situation is for him because they’re scared he’ll just get mad and yell at them, or they just assume he’s just mad about it and wanted to kill Alvar. 
Is nobody going to see that there’s some deep emotional/mental trauma to unpack here? Is he always just going to have to help himself all the time?
At least Keefe has people who understand him, who are willing to talk to him about what’s wrong and help him through it. He had a seriously traumatic childhood, and I’m not comparing their trauma or anything, that’s not what I’m trying to do. What I am trying to say is, Keefe’s got a whole crew of people helping him, people who want to make sure he’s okay, people who care for him, and he rejects it, deems them annoying in Fitz’s case, and just discounts the effort and energy they spend on him.
There is a lot more to unpack from this scene, but it’s mostly all along a similar vein of what I talked about here (this is long enough haha). There are also tons of little details about the Vackers in Unlocked that just emphasize how pressured Fitz is into the Vacker mold, and how the Alvar drama just makes it worse. 
For example: reading Fitz’s registry file, it says that it is “highly suggested that he choose someone on his match list” because of how dragged the Vacker name already is. So when people want to get upset with him for choosing "his reputation over Sophie", we have text evidence that its more complicated than that. Fitz isn't just choosing between being liked by the world and the person he likes, he's choosing whether or not to maintain a level of peace within his family at his own sacrifice. SPOILERS! (if you haven't read stellarlune don't read the rest of this paragraph). Eventually it was his sacrifice, because as of stellar lune, Sokeefe is official. Fitz couldn't repair things with Sophie quick enough, so she moved on.
It also mentions in Keefe’s detention slip write ups about how people actually hassle Biana and Fitz at Foxfire for Alvar being apart of the Neverseen. Because of their family, because of the Alvar drama, Fitz and Biana can't go to school without people bullying them.
Theres also this sad note in Fitz’s Base Quest instructions where Fitz writes about how you can use you special abilities while playing base quest, but included a little side note that said “but it's no fun when you turn invisible the whole time and hide Alvar!” Which just insinuates that Alvar would turn invisible and leave to go do whatever else he wanted while Fitz still thought they were playing. :( 
Depressing.

professional help, c2. 'The urgency.'
Tumblr media
simon riley x original character.
trigger warnings: violence, sexual assault, mentions of rape, trauma, sexual themes, swearing, use of alcohol and drugs, eating disorders, depression.
song to listen to when reading this: The Chain, Fleetwood Mac.
abstract: this is Jude, this is a little bit of information about me since you care so much, I don't even know you… anyway yes, I really like being mysterious, what you gonna do about it, punch me in the face? I'm not even real, grow the fuck up. see ya.
Sometimes, she just fucking hated her life. She supposed it was normal like that, it happened to everyone to absolutely fucking despise their lives, no? She wakes at the same hour everyday, does her makeup. Not too much, not too little to show she was sleep deprived and got high last night. Her identity was concealed under eyeliner and blush. She looks like a doll. She likes her makeup, she's quite good at it. She plays with her hairstyles, sometimes a bun, sometimes braids, sometimes loose with a headband, depending on the mood. She walks her dog and cleans his poop. Jinx, a 5 month old Belgian Malinois she adopted when she moved. She found him at a shelter for abused puppies, he was the last one to get adopted. She decided to take him, she planned to move to the countryside soon anyways. Gaining his trust was one of her biggest accomplishments, now the dog had a bit of an attachment issue, but they were working on getting better together. She drives to work with the same 4 playlists playing in her car. Old rock, Frank Ocean, some Italian songs here and there.
She always comes in dressed in dark colours, dark red, dark blue or black. She has 10 male patients and 8 female soldiers. Some of them are combat medics, some snipers. Demolition experts. She works 'till lunch time, eats alone, sometimes skips lunch just to make her body feel something and indulge in disordered eating, then goes outside to smoke and comes back in. After the afternoon sessions, she sometimes has groups together for some group therapy. Then she usually goes home and smokes weed while she cooks her dinner, she acts like she's in MasterChef, puts on music and pours herself a glass of wine 'Quando sei qui con me' she sings to her dog, 'Questa stanza non ha più pareti, ma alberi'. Jinx doesn't even know Italian. Two times a week, she teaches ballet at a local dance school. 13 year old is not old enough to be on point shoes. It's her favourite time of the week though. She gets to finally have control of a situation, she gets some respect. 13 year olds, a fucking nightmare… She gets to tell them what to do and correct their arms, their feet, their posture and they listen! They do, and they like her, they say thank you Alba, see you next week! They learn her choreographies, they follow her lead when she explains a new variation. They even like the songs she chooses for warm up. Mostly Abba.
Alba is not her real name, but they don't know that. A gift from Laswell, when she started working for her. A sparkly new identity, English ID and nice documents that prove she's an English citizen, born in Southampton. She's not. Kept a little bit of Italian in the fake name. She hasn't been in Italy in close to five years. She went on vacation alone in Tuscany once, just to feel her country again for a second. She is not in contact with her family, last message from her sister was three years ago, it went 'I hope you're alive.' Her mother taught her violence. To be in power. To be beautiful and kind. To never ever trust someone who wouldn't give their life for you. Her mother taught her loyalty, respect. She used to never cry as a child. She loved to know stuff, to read about planets. She would kill lizards in the backyard with her little brother, who died young. She saw her first gun at 13. Now, her name is not Alba and it sure isn't Jude. Or Judy, as some patients call her. They know it's a callsign, a code name, everyone has one, especially in the task forces. Hers is Jude. 'Jude looks like an angel, but her words have thorns'. That's what Billy Lunette had to say about her. Billy had been her favourite patient for the whole of 2021. He had PTSD, he had night terrors and was in a mental hospital for schizophrenia symptoms for a while. He wouldn't take his medication, he would smoke, he was a mess. He listened to her though. She was the only one who visited him in the hospital. She showed him he could trust her and he completely lost himself in her. He would call her at 3 in the morning, drop by her office too many times per day, developed a bit of a codependency, but she was able to help him through his pain. He would do research about the treatments, the medicine, cognitive behavioural therapy. Billy was happy now. He was grateful to have had her and she was grateful that Billy had been a great patient. Big challenge. Billy was her biggest accomplishment, and proof of the fact she wasn't completely useless in the army.
She didn't work for the entirety of 2022. She had an accident with one of the patients, classified information. She survived, but man was it hard to live after that day... Spent time with her dog, visited a friend in San Francisco, taught ballet. Price and Laswell felt so guilty they continued to pay her even if she wasn't working. Why she decided to come back she really didn't know. She thinks the truth is she likes helping people, makes her feel good. She likes the crazy stories and that she had a reputation at the base, she was starting to be respected. She craved that. And it really started to bore her, the routine. Until Arash. Seeing Arash so frighted and tense was new, he was a calm and polite gentlemen. She saw an invisible string tying his story and his damned pilgrimage book to the mission she knew had failed in the Middle East. Now, it was a little bit of a stretch. So she did her little research, put her Sherlock hat on, lit a cigarette and started digging.
She had fun, until things really started clocking. He was missing his doctor appointments on purpose on specific dates, to go do what? Call someone? She couldn't steal his phone. Send letters? She tried the post office but found out nothing. The bank really did give her his statements, which was pure luck. He had set his personal security questions as his birthday and his mother's name, which she knew, because he told her. She knew everything about him, even his social security number. Arash really trusted her and she had an incredible memory for unnecessary details. Also, he left his wallet on the couch in her office countless times, it’s not that she looked, it was just there and she remembered. When she saw him stressed and fidgety she knew he was hiding something. She kept a straight face, 'Arash, we can really talk about whatever you want, you know' and he would interrupt her 'You don't understand. The urgency!', he continued to say. She really didn't want to tell Price herself, she would have preferred for Laswell to do it. She took extra time in the morning to get ready that day. She was going in a separate area she knew very little about, and nobody knew who she was. Sometimes people mistook her for someone's wife, or daughter. She chose her outfit accordingly, she wanted to seem professional. She wore a sports bra. There was nothing to look at anyways. She didn't put on lipstick, not even the nude one. She was used to being underestimated, and being looked down at. She was also used to raising her voice and presenting herself as stoic and cold. She knew perfectly how to be violence. She noticed a familiar face once she opened the door of the briefing room. A familiar face mask. The skull guy, she had seen him before. Was he the guy…
She could't get distracted. Her little mission went smoothly. She always knew Price liked her and feared her at the same time, and when it came to his little soldier boys, she really didn't care what they thought. The guy from the day of her accident even spoke to her. Poor thing. She was really amused no one told him about the reason why she didn't want to go home alone. He did really good that night, she remembers him well. He didn't try to speak too much, he sounded gentle. A gentle giant. Unfortunately for him, no one was gonna tell him about that day. When she left the room, she went straight home. She doubted someone would ever contact her again about the situation, they would handle it themselves, and probably very badly. She was driving to her ballet lesson, still thinking they all looked so confused by her words. They were probably gonna do a stupid interrogation, or rather do nothing and wait for the next mission to be a shit show. Imbecilli.
'Alright girls, one more time please!' At least she had her little ballerinas to cheer her up. She had them warm up, she usually did the warm up routine with them. She walked between the four rows of kids at the barre, delivering her corrections. Jennifer usually had stiff hands, and she was tense in her shoulders. Kyla had a beautiful turnout but she often confused her arms positions. The jetes routine, they always forgot that one. 'It's three in front and switch… guys I'm not gonna repeat myself'. She thought she sounded rude sometimes, but 13 year old American girls were a nightmare to work with. Last month, she even had to deal with poor Gemma being bullied in the changing rooms. 'I'm gonna say this just once, three in the front, switch to the back.' she liked demonstrating, felt like she was taking lessons herself. 'Ta-ra, ta-ra, ta-da. And we're gonna hold here' she lifted herself on her toes and attached her right pointed foot to her knee. She let go of the barre, holding her balance on one foot. 'Passè.' she said. The girls groaned. 'The more you complain the more I'm gonna make you stay like this girls. We're gonna do one minute.' She went to the side of the room, to play the music 'From the top.'
notes: translation of the song: 'Quando sei qui con me' when you're with me, 'Questa stanza non ha più pareti, ma alberi', this room doesn't have walls no more, it has trees.
notes: Alba means something specific!
translation: imbecilli, means imbeciles.
notes: let me know what you think !! <3
love, mare.

Inside the most famous opera house in Paris…
Ian: [worried, yet relieved] O-oh thank goodness you're alright. When I came in and saw you lying on the floor like that… I just… I-I didn't know. I don't know what I'd do if something bad happened to you.
Shaun: [excited and giddy] Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Can you believe it? They say a ghost is haunting the opera house! [excited squeal] How cool is that? Come on, let's go find him!

[Moonpie meows her approval through a mouthful of food.]
Shaun: [chuckles affectionately, tone softening] Glad to hear it little baby.
Shaun: [Regal accent] So how about you? Does my humble fare satisfy the glorious new rising star of the opera house?
Nick: So how's progress with your part?
Nick: I know you want to study your greatest rival closely, but if you keep staring at me like that, I'm going to start to feel embarrassed. What's on your mind?
Ian: You’ve been so busy performing all day today. I figured you haven’t had anything to eat yet, so I brought something for you.
Ian: Tada~! There's nothing like some hot fresh pizza after a long day of work. Just like the old days, remember?
Jack: You did great out there today. I'm so proud of you. You worked so hard... but remember that resting up and eating well is just as important.
And refuses to be forgotten

Sunny Day Jack
Voiced by NaughtyMaus
Jack: [suggestive] But I could take off everything else if you want me to~
OR WILL OBSESSION LEAD TO TRAGEDY?
Nick: [hopeless] The opera house is gone… The music is gone… Everything is just… gone. We're the only ones left. What's there to look forward to now?
Ian: [low and breathy] Don't worry... no one will ever find you here, not even him.
Ian: It's just going to be you and me... [unhinged chuckle] [pleasured sigh] forever. Just like it was always meant to be. [disturbing giggle]
Shaun: [choking on tears] It... it's fine. It's really fine. Things might look bad right now, but... but it'll get better as long as we stick together. ...It's going to be fine.
Jack?: [menacing] You promised to sing my music for me, remember? You promised to never leave me or forget me... You promised to always love me just as much as I love you... and those promises can never be broken.
Will you give in to the phantom's temptations?
Jack: If I am the phantom, it's because I was buried and forgotten.
Jack: If I am to be saved… it's because your love redeems me.
Or is it better to leave him forgotten?
Jack: [shouting, unhinged] This is the point of no return!
Jack: [ragged breathing, swallows hard] [whispered, desperate] Please... P-please. Don't leave me like this...

finally. the gouenji post where i rate his looks (soccer and school uniforms excluded).
gouenji is the face of the franchise along with endou and kidou, he has his own manga spinoff, and he's regularly elected as a fan favourite in every popularity contest.
canonically, gouenji has a huge fanclub of girls rooting for him and it's definitely not only because soccer.
so why is he so popular ?
well mostly because he's non verbal most of the time (girls love boys who can shut up), he makes bomb ass takoyaki, and he's also very handsome. but are his clothes helping or is he THAT handsome ? let's find out.
Tumblr media
ah, the OG season 1 classic. the first ever outfit. he looks great. orange is as much his color as it is endou's, it suits him very well. we already know gouenji is careful with his looks, since he canonically spikes his hair every morning, and now, we can be sure the fucker knows how to dress himself. he knows how to make colors match, he even matches the sunset. truly unparalleled.
if kazemaru didn't exist, i would have fell in love with him. 10/10
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OG season 2. man i want that hoodie. i want it so much. it's as cool in the game as it is in the anime.
i really like how this outfit manages to hide him and completely reveal him at the same time. the orange color, the fucking saiyen hairstyle under the hood. this dumbass had to keep the spikes even though he knew he had to hide them under a fucking hoodie that would ruin his work. it's called dedication. 11/10
before moving on to GO, (where the problems lies mostly), let's talk about two out of category looks.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i love gouenji's looks in the games, especially the very first. he looks like a whole different character, way more rebellious and loudmouthed with his frosted tips, jet black eyes and eyebrows, unbuttoned jacket (we'll talk about those) and single earring. he looks very homosexual. 10/10
after the first game tho, they dropped the delinquent look and he got the inverted pikachu treatment, they made him rounder. a little saddened but not complaining, they kept the best features. 8/10
Tumblr media
one day i'll talk about the orion endings in detph, with all the emotions they triggered in me. persisting in giving him a hood is funny though. 7/10
OK NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT GO.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the ishido shuuji outfit. iconic.
my man looks EXPENSIVE and that's great. i can see the first game gouenji in him. i cannot tell if he's gay or european. the raybans, the blood read suit, the slutty unbuttoned shirt, the jewelry, the kazemaru blue streaks iN his unspiked hair ! this outfit would cost me more than my day job monthly salary. he's living the life.
i can't buy him as a villain but i can buy him as a mean girl. 100/10
Tumblr media
the concept art is as good as the final design. i do get why they didn't keep the spikes for this look. he would have looked a little too much like a gay broly. not a bad thing but understandably unpreferable.
Tumblr media
there it is. the glowdown.
his hair does look good unspiked but... where are the blue streaks. why is he suddely hiding his chest under three layes of clothing. gouenji darling you know warm colors suit you best so why the grey-blue-ish suit ? am i supposed to believe this is the real you ? i know it's not. i hope you find yourself. 4/10
Tumblr media
OH BOY NEVERMIND WTF IS THIS.
wtf went through everybody's head while designing this. i get this is a way to mimic adult endou's charm but it does not work. gouenji isn't endou. you love endou because he's a very wholesome bundle of joy (voiced by naruto), and you love gouenji bc he is one half of the inazuma eleven equivalent of sasuke (kidou being the other half), you can't dress them the same way and not see the dissonance.
this man is not gouenji, this man buys cheap beers in the early afternoon without saying thank you to the cashier. this man pretends to be a metalhead. this man just divorced kanye. i would not trust him with my kids.
this is not a relaxed look, this is a sad, depressed look. please gouenji talk to someone. people love you. you can be helped. 0/10
conclusion : i don't know how they fucked up so bad at the end, they really made gouenji forgot about his hard-earned fashion skills. thank god he actually IS that handsome but before that he's all W after W. i'm eager to see him in victory road.

silly byler ficlet that is basically 665 words of me projecting onto mike
@bylersrise @unsurebisexualcore
Mike knows he should be asleep. He does. What he doesn’t know is why he isn’t sleeping yet. So he slowly, slowly, carefully, carefully extracts himself from his boyfriend, who has been asleep for three hours at this point, to get his earbuds out of the basket they have tied under the bedside table.
Scrawny by Wallows has been on repeat for a few days, so obviously Mike just keeps listening to it. He physically restrains himself from wiggling around under the blankets with excitement for the song and gets the urge to bite something on about the third repeat of the night. He doesn’t remember where he put his chewy necklace so he settles for biting the heel of his hand, smiling all the while.
He’s so absorbed in the music that he doesn’t notice when his sleepy boyfriend shifts underneath him and seemingly out of nowhere, Will is pulling Mike’s hand away from his mouth. Mike turns to look at Will, grinning sheepishly and pulling out his earbuds one at a time.
“Mike, what are you doing?” Will asks, voice hoarse with sleep. It makes Mike’s smile wider. Will is adorable. “It’s almost 2 in the morning. You should be asleep. Also I can hear that,” he adds, nodding at Mike’s earbuds that are resting on the blankets.
“Me too.” Mike grins. “And I know. I just couldn’t sleep. I don’t know why,” He responds, subconsciously bringing his hand back to his mouth. Will pulls it away before it even gets there.
“Where’s your necklace? I know it’s hard to accommodate yourself sometimes but I don’t want you hurting yourself like this.” Mike shrugs. Will rolls over to dig through their basket. Some of the contents include various fidget toys for both Mike and Will, Will’s headphones, phone chargers, a shared water bottle (okay maybe they’re a little bit gross but neither of them care. Haters gonna hate), and usually Mike’s rubber lego brick necklace that he chews on as a stim but it seems to be missing at the moment.
“Aha,” Will mutters, rolling back over with Mike’s necklace wrapped around his fingers. “Stop biting your hand.”
Mike slips the soft cord over his head and immediately starts biting the rubber. “Shorry,” he says, muffled. “It doeshn’t hurt doe,” he adds.
Will smiles at him endearingly. “It might not feel painful but look at the bruises on your palms. Biting your hands hurts you. That’s why we got you the necklaces in the first place, ya goof.”
Mike unclenches his teeth, letting the colorful lego brick drop to his chest. “I couldn’t find it.”
“It was right there,” Will grins at him incredulously.
“Object permanence issues?”
“Okay fine,” Will compromises, having suffered from the same problem for his whole life. Just yesterday morning he was looking for his keys for ten minutes before realizing they were literally in his hand. “Still listening to Scrawny?”
“Yes,” Mike gushes. “I am a scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle, if you didn’t know.”
Will laughs. Mike has said the same thing at least five times a day since someone recommended the song to him last week. “Trust me, Mike, I know. Can you at least try to go to sleep soon?”
“I can try,” Mike agrees, putting his earbuds back in his ears but turning the volume down so it’s not distracting enough to keep him awake. Will kisses his forehead and mumbles a “goodnight” before settling down onto the pillows to go back to sleep.
Mike loves him, Mike loves him, Mike loves him. He pulls out an earbud. “Will,” he whispers, nudging his tired boyfriend.
“Mike,” Will whispers back.
“I love you.”
Will smiles, eyes still closed. “I love you too.”
It’s not the first time they’ve said it to each other but it still gives Mike butterflies everytime he hears it.
That night, Mike falls asleep next to his favorite person, listening to his favorite song, in his favorite place: his home.
uhmm hope you liked it if not then kiss my ass because i dont actually care this was very very self indulgent 😘

Crowley S2 Hair Post #3 Redone
(For reference: The Sideburns Scheme)
Crowley, Good Omens 2, Episode 1, The Arrival, phone call with Aziraphale in the Bentley
Sideburns Check
The sideburns are shorter than the last time we saw him while attending to his mail in the street. We are only given a front view of them so not much to go on compared to the previous two scenes.
Tumblr media
To my own best estimates, they are longer than they were in the park and when he later arrives at the coffee shop. I made a composite image for us to compare. All of these are brightened:
Tumblr media
As my theory goes, the sideburns shorten with time while driving. I consider the "two minutes" in the dialogue as a clue.
...
Brighter Red Streak Check
Tumblr media
The brighter red streak is not visibly over Crowley's left eye in the car. When Crowley later exits the car for entering the coffee shop, the streak can be found, having moved back to an area above his left eye.
In the meantime, there is a streak of hair on Crowley's right side of his head, by his forehead, that is brighter and more saturated up until the cut where he turns off the phone. So, the brighter red streak either moved—and will move again when the drive is done, or an alternative is presented in its place. When Crowley actually does turn off the phone, there is too much saturation within most of his hair overall for me to really feel like the streak is there anymore. So, maybe it actually is starting to move. His sideburns might have even shortened a little more already, but I can't tell due to the angle.
...
Hairstyle Changes
Tumblr media
For a differing hairstyle, instead of both sides pushing inward and up with extra separated curls, most of the top hair appears together and is swooping upward, then down to his right, like a curve.
...
Earthly Objects
(For reference: Earthly Objects)
Crowley is touching a steering wheel. Aziraphale is touching a phone. The dialogue itself includes a Hello, two questions, one number, and the name of the coffee shop.
Gabriel's around and touching a cup, presumably being seen by Aziraphale, but Gabriel has no actual dialogue himself. The fly is around too.
...
Story Commentary
This scene is the first time we see Crowley and Aziraphale interact in the present day. It's through a phone call instead of meeting each other in person. Season 1 did that too actually.
Tumblr media
However, the framing here decides to split the call, so that both characters are visibly on screen at the same time. The above image is brightened. Crowley is shown on the camera's left. Aziraphale is shown on the camera's right. In season 1, that would be considered as them being on the wrong sides. The standard then was that Crowley would be to Aziraphale's left when both are seen from the front. However, they are on the wrong sides so frequently in season 2, especially after a certain point in episode 5, it becomes overwhelming noise and loses meaning. I don't trust it. I figure things are not as bad as they seem.
The plants are more clearly shown as being in Crowley's car.
...
Tumblr media
Again, we don't actually see Crowley look in the mirror for his sideburns, but the camera work made sure we could see that the mirror is available quite early into the scene. He could have looked before the call. There are cuts of just Aziraphale and just Gabriel where Crowley could look without us seeing him look before he says, "Two minutes."
As the scene itself is presented, Gabriel's the last character on screen before it officially ends.
Referring to the timeline rundown post yet again, this scene does not have an obvious timestamp itself. In the context of the scenes surrounding it, it could finally actually fit into the timeline Aziraphale's been experiencing.
...
Muriel
I'm not making an entire separate post for this part so skip it or read it as you see fit. It covers a lot of what I already discussed here in the episode 1 section on this scene: Bookend Buddies - Crowley and Muriel.
This phone call scene connected to Gabriel with the fly acts a front bookend to Muriel's first scene in the entire season. Among my many theories about this season, I have one that Muriel and Crowley have a deep trust in each other, to the point I think they are good friends. I am starting to wonder if it is a mentor-student type relationship too, with Crowley taking on the mentor role and Muriel taking on the student role. That would be cute.
So, first, we are introduced to the matchbox. The story has decided that this matchbox and the quote on it are so important that the words are copied and flow out onto the screen, so that the bigger text can be more clearly read. The text itself says, "Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out." It includes, "Job 41: 19" as an additional reference.
Tumblr media
We have seen and will see some things that remind us of that quote. Fire leapt out of Crowley's mouth in season 1, episode 6, when he was pretending to be Aziraphale. Later in this episode 1 of season 2, we are going to see lightning shooting out of Crowley with such force that the lights of the coffee shop itself go out as part of a power outage.
According to numerous sources found through Google that know better than I do, this quote is in reference to a leviathan. I probably read that on other Tumblr posts months ago too. Leviathans can be associated with snakes, and Crowley is a snake demon.
When we do get to Job later, Crowley is going to be shown with fire as part of his own power even if it is not literally shooting out of his mouth or involving lamps.
That's a lot of clues hinting at a link to Crowley. I think the matchbox is interested in him. The matchbox might be evil or borderline evil.
Tumblr media
Eventually, we see Muriel. They are careful in their touch of picking up this suspicious object. They manage their digits deliberately in the touch itself, much like Crowley does for his touches.

also i just love your writing in general you make me want to start my own blog dedicated to the heroes and and start writing again 🌟💗
Stop, I make you want to start your own blog and start writing again! That feels like such a compliment thank you! 😭💕
All members \(ˆ-ˆ)/
Summary: Planning your wedding together with Xdinary Heroes.
WC:~1k
Warning:grammar
Tumblr media
photo not mine credit to owner.
Gunil
Gunil gets so excited when it’s time for the two of you to start planning your guys’ wedding. He’s very open to hearing all of your ideas and opinions. Honestly he just wants to do what will make you happiest. Even if that meant holding the wedding in your guys’ living room. He’d do it as long as he gets to marry you. Ends up getting very invested in your wedding hairstyle. 
“Ooh this one’s really pretty,” Gunil said pointing at a hairstyle.
“Gunil you’ved said that about the past three hairstyles,” you laughed. 
“Well they’re all pretty. I really like the little flowers in this one though,” he points. It’s more like planning a wedding with your best friend. If things get a little hectic and stressful he’s there to keep you grounded. He’s not looking for some perfect fairytale wedding. Reminds you that the important part is that you love each other and that’s all he really needs.
Jungsu
Jungsu always heard that planning a wedding is a lot of work, but he didn’t fully understand it until now. Booking a venue, catering, the cake, making and sending invitations, getting decor, finding your dress, finding his suit and that’s not even everything. It really was all a lot of work.
“Does this suit not look the same as the last one?” Jungsu murmured to you when you were at his suit fitting. You chuckled as you readjusted his tie.
“The last one was a slim-fit, this one is a modern-fit. Not that I know what that means though,” you laughed and so does Jungsu. The never ending appointments can be a bit stressful, but since you and Jungsu are tackling them together they don’t seem so bad. Everything is more than worth it as the big picture starts to be drawn together. Jungsu gets to marry you with a beautiful wedding the two of you planned together, making it all the more special. 
Gaon/Jiseok
When it comes to wedding planning Jiseok lets you take the lead. It’s very daunting to him. He thought choosing the ring to propose to you with was hard, but turns out wedding planning is a whole other level. If you ask for his opinion he’ll give it to you, but also tells you that he trusts you and whatever decision you make he’ll like. Jiseok is most involved when it comes to choosing a cake flavor. He was so excited to go taste all of the different flavors. 
“It looks like you’re only here to eat cake,” you poked him playfully. 
“Cake is very important. Everyone has to eat it,” Jiseok spoke, taking another bite. 
“Ok then, which do you like best?” You asked. Jiseok thought for a moment. 
“This one,” he points to a plate. Even if he’s not the most involved he is still always there for you to lean on. Makes sure that at the end of the day you are happy.
O.de/Seungmin
Seungmin is right there by your side for everything. Tends to just agree with what you want, but if he does have some of his own ideas and wants, he is not afraid to let you know. He easily expresses his opinion to you. If you’re getting caught up on small details he’s there to ease your mind about it. Suggest that you take a break and come back to it later. 
“Seungmin, I don't think these flowers look good together,” you sighed, feeling a little frustrated. 
“Y/n,” he says, taking you by the hands. “They’re flowers and I think they do look good together. Let’s just step away for a bit and come back,” he rubs his thumbs over the back of your hands. Looking at you with loving, reassuring eyes. He’ll step up and take more charge if he senses that you’re becoming a bit overwhelmed. Seungmin understands that you want the wedding to be great, everything you dreamed of and he wants to give that to you, but not at the cost of your well being.
Junhan/Hyeongjun
The mere thought of everything that needs to get done for the wedding is enough to stress him out a bit. He is more than glad to let you take the reins. His only ask is for it to be a small wedding, which you’re more than happy to agree to.  A small wedding helps to make some other aspects of planning easier too. That doesn’t mean there still aren’t a few stressful encounters along the way. 
“You know what? We could always just elope. Then everything else wouldn't matter,” Hyeongjun states. He’s half joking. A wedding is a unique experience and he wants to experience it with you, but on the other hand he can’t say that eloping doesn’t sound tempting. 
“Don’t tempt me with a good time,” you responded. It’s only a joke though and you both know it. You two won’t let these hurdles get in the way of your wedding. Hyeongjun will hold your hand all the way through it.
Jooyeon
Jooyeon is more involved than he thought that he would be. In the beginning phases of planning he was just letting you take the ropes and giving his thoughts here and there. However as the planning process moved along he found himself falling deeper into it. Before he knew it was asking where you should have flower centerpieces or glass centerpieces or maybe even just some candles. 
“These flower centerpieces are pretty, but look I found these glass ones that look pretty cool. I also saw some pictures of candles that also look pretty. Which one do you think we should do?” Jooyeon questions, looking at you with a slight pout.
“We could put the candles in the glass centerpieces,” you suggested. 
“You’re a genius,” he raves, eyes litting up. You laughed at his excitement. It was very pleasant to watch as Jooyeon fell more and more invested in wedding planning. In the end the pair of you will have a wedding that you both loved and loved preparing together.

good time .̮ෆ.。๑º
(billy hargrove x f!reader ft. best friend!eddie munson x f!reader)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is my first time writing something longer and english is not my first language so i'm a little bit scared, but feedback and reblogs are really appreciated!! ♡
words: 2.3k
warnings: mention of smoking weed, alcohol comsumption, fingering, unprotected sex, petnames (baby, doll), dirty talk - let me know if i've missed something
Tumblr media
do you know this feeling like everything in your life is just fine? because that's what y/n felt when she woke up one friday morning. she had a job she liked - she was a waitress in a dinner, y/n liked working with people so this job gave her a lot of joy and a lot of opportunities to meet someone new. the other thing she was happy about that one friday morning was her friendship with one and only eddie munson. they were neighbours since they were kids living one trailer next to each other. eddie and y/n had a lot of things in common, but also so much that made them different. people called eddie "the freak" and automatically y/n became "the one who hangs out with the freak". not that she cared about it much, she knew what she's worth and mean comments did nothing to her and her friendship with eddie.
so you can tell that she was grateful for two things - her job and her best friend, not much but it made her morning way better.
she stepped outside her trailer and smiled wide when she saw eddie waiting for her next to his van so both of them can drive to school like almost every morning.
"you are late" eddie commented and opened a door for his best friend when y/n just showed him her middle finger and laughed, he did the same and a few moments later both of them were driving to school listening to music that eddie chose.
"we should go to jenny's party today" y/n said out of nowhere and eddie almost choked on his saliva, they both weren't party goers. that was one of the things they had in common.
"are you crazy? what- where did this idea came from?" munson raised his eyebrow and looked at his friend.
"i don't know, but i know the girl i told you about will be there, i met her at the dinner and trust me, she's 100% your type, eds" y/n said happily "c'mon, this will be fun!"
"fun? when was the last time we were at a party? nobody ever invites us, y/n" he shooked his head "aren't we the freaks or something?"
"we are just cooler than other people" y/n said "so what? you coming with me or not?"
eddie needed a moment to think about it, he was quiet all the way to school and at the parking lot he finally said one simple "i'll come with you"
×××
y/n was excited for this party, maybe because this wasn't her normal way of spending friday evening. she was usually with eddie watching a movie or smoking something or she was at work, but today wasn't her shift so she wanted to make it the best friday night ever.
eddie was the one who knocked at her door first, he was wearing his everyday outfit and y/n laughed a little bit when she saw him.
"are you really wearing your hellfire club shirt?" she asked.
"yeah, that's my signature look! but you've changed a couple of things... new hairstyle? new top? are you trying to impress someone at this party?" eddie was curious, he really was. what the hell happened to his best friend?
"i'm just hoping for a good time" she said with a smile and winked at him. eddie just shooked his head and both of them get to his van to go to jenny's party.
×××
jenny's house wasn't too far away from the trailer park. y/n and eddie only had a 15 minutes ride - full of metal music, both of them liked it, well, y/n only liked it because of eddie. he forced her to listen to music with him when they were younger, now she likes it almost as much as he does, but all the credits goes to eddie munson. speaking of music he also teached her how to play guitar, but she was bad at this, when eddie was a natural.
when they have arrived at the party there already were a lot of people. the first thing y/n wanted to do was to find a girl she was talking about to eddie. her name was stacy and y/n were sure she and eddie would get along. stacy also was in a band, she played the bass and she also liked fantasy games. she was basically eddie munson but female. it took them some time to find her but when they did eddie was impressed.
"i'll leave you two alone, find me later, eds!" y/n said and went inside the house leaving her friend and stacy alone on the patio. she decided to get something to drink so her next stop was in the kitchen. y/n made herself a drink and looked around. she knew some of the people but some of them were new to her. and there was one particular person moving in her direction with a grin on his lips. billy hargrove. she knew him, there was probably not one single person in hawkins who didn't. one thing - she never really talked to him, except taking his orders at the dinner.
"am i having hallucinations? y/n y/l/n at a party?" he said moving closer to y/n. she just took a sip from her drink.
"maybe you should get used to it" she said and shrugged "it's never too late to change something in your life, right?"
"are you here alone? or with this freak you are friends with?" billy asked "you really should find new friends by the way"
"my friends are none of your business, hargrove" y/n looked at him "don't you have somewhere else to be or some other girl to bother?"
he just laughed. and y/n thought this was a really nice sound and that made her feel weird. billy hargrove is not nice and there is nothing nice about him... but he was good looking. really fucking good looking. something switched in her mind, wasn't she at this party for good time? something about making this the best friday night ever? why not billy helping with this? yes, he was an asshole and he used girls and he probably just wanted to be able to score her out of his list of girls he fucked but was this really a big problem to y/n? no, not tonight.
"i think you want me to bother you" he winked at her and get a little bit closer, at this point y/n wanted to play his game. she jumped on the kitchen counter and looked at him.
"you say so? interesting observation, tell me more about it" she once again took a sip from her drink and then put the empty cup next to her.
"it's your first party in... forever? you are here alone, waiting for somebody to keep you company and something tells me you are looking for something more than just a little conversation" billy said and in a few moments he was standing between y/n's legs, his hands on her thighs. her eyes was on his hands in just a few seconds, then she looked at him again. he was closer. he was so fucking close.
"and in my humble opinion you are looking for another girl for one night and you think you've just found one, don't you?" she grinned and licked her lips.
"what if i did?" he raised his eyebrow "tell me i'm wrong and i'll leave you alone, y/n"
after that she said nothing. she was just looking at him, first her eyes were on his eyes and two seconds later she looked at his lips. he reacted immediately and kissed her. the kiss was passionate and hungry. her hands found their place in his hair keeping his face close to hers. their kiss was more and more wet and full of lust. y/n moaned a little in his lips and billy just growled at this. she was the one who pushed him back a little bit first and he was confused at first and looked at her with a questioning look on his face.
"do you wanna go somewhere more private?" y/n asked and billy was really surprised by her question. he was still looking at her - y/n's hair were a little bit messy from him keeping his hand on her head during the kiss, her lips were more pink than usual and just a bit more swollen. she already looked like a wet dream and he didn't even touched her yet.
billy didn't answer her question, he just took her hand in his. she jumped out of the counter and followed him. they went to the bathroom and billy locked the door behind them. y/n was the first one to kiss him then and this kiss was even more lustful than the previous one. billy's hands were on y/n in a matter of seconds. first on her hips pulling her closer to him then on her ass. she jumped and wrapped her legs around his waist. she started kissing his neck, but he stopped her really fast. he wanted to kiss her, touch her, to be in charge. just a little bit later his lips were on her neck, she moaned softly and he felt like he was about to explode.
"fuck, never thought you could sound so sweet, baby" he said and then he bit y/n's neck. she nearly screamed. y/n was sure this will leave a mark - billy loved it. he wanted people to see that somebody, no, not somebody - that he had her. he placed her on top of a sink, his lips were on hers once again and his hands started to unbutton her jeans. y/n helped him with that and then she was in front of him just in her peachy top and underwear. she didn't want to wait any longer and unbuttoned his jeans too. when she was doing it billy saw that she was already wet. this cute girl from the dinner? letting him fuck her in some random person's bathroom? he got a little bit lost in his own mind and came back to real world when he heard her voice.
"you going to do something or you want me to fuck you on this floor?" y/n raised her eyebrow waiting for his next move. this left him a little bit shocked and the idea of her riding his dick here was in fact very tempting, but maybe next time? now he touched her through her panties. y/n closed her eyes a little bit and bit her lips. when billy saw this he slapped her cheek, not too hard, but enough for her to feel it. she looked at him with wide eyes.
"look at me and be loud, let me hear you, doll" he growled next to her ear. his fingers slipped inside her underwear and inside her, she was actually really wet. billy cursed when he felt it. y/n grabbed billy's shoulders. she wasn't a virgin but she also wasn't this close with anybody in a long time. "fuck, don't tell me my fingers alone are too much for you" billy said and started moving them faster and faster. at this point y/n was just a mess, she put her head on his shoulder and bit him when she came on his fingers for the first time, he hissed the second he felt her teeth. her breath was loud and uneven. billy moved one step from her and took off his boxers. he grabbed her legs, moved her underwear to the side and next thing y/n knows is his dick inside her, taking the breath away from her lungs completely.
"f-fuck, billy-" y/n moaned loudly, she was wet but still felt like this is too much "slow down, fuck!" she cried a little and pulled on his hair with her fingers.
"c'mon baby, you can take me, you wanted this" he said and moaned too. he was right she wanted this, fuck, she wanted this so bad. and now she had it. billy hargrove pounding in her on the sink in one of her classmates bathroom. making her a walking mess. he knew what he was doing, with a reputation like this he absolutely knew what he was doing. y/n felt she's close again and billy felt that too. she was getting tighter and tighter. he was still moving inside her, he wanted to touch her but she was quicker and started playing with her clit by herself, at this sight he was the one who almost screamd.
"god, you are dirty" he commented and let her play with herself, y/n started mumbling something but billy wasn't sure what, not that he cared. she came again, stronger than before. he still was moving inside her, she was sensitive but all of this felt like heaven. he came a few moments after her second orgasm when he pulled out and ruined her panties. she was still catching her breath when billy started putting his clothes back on. when he was ready he took a package of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one of them. y/n looked at him, she was a bit tired but she couldn't stop thinking about how hot and sexy he looks right now. she took a piece of paper and tried to clean her underwear now covered with billy's cum. when she did that she put her jeans back on and came closer to billy. he was looking at her all the time. she took his cigarette and while staring in his eyes she started smoking, billy licked his lips.
"fuck, baby, stop being so fuckin sexy or next time i see you in that little uniform in the dinner i'll fuck you on the table"
"i'm closing on mondays, don't be late" y/n said and winked at him, then gave him his cigarette and just like that she left the bathroom. billy was still there, standing with his mouht open and she knew she would have a lot of fun just in three days.

hihi uhhm. sorry if this comes off as creepy but i scoured both your blogs for info on pop and lock but unless i suck at looking for stuff i didtnt find much. you should totes tell me more about them
that's not creepy at all don't worry!!! i've never really posted any oc lore publicly because i'm not sure if people care, and boy do i apologize you having to look through my sideblog because Wow Is There Nothing Important On It, but i'm BEYOND elated to answer any questions about them!!! literally thank you so much for asking, you made my day 😭
i have a looooot of stuff about them written down on places like google docs, a discord server i infodump in, and also In My Head so there's a HUGE amount of previously untapped info about them just around, but i'll stick to their main things for now :)
(i also have a toyhouse, but i never finished setting it up, so i'll also probably post more oc stuff on that when it's done)
pINK Lemonade Official Lore Post™ under the cut!
_________________________________________________________
POP:
Pop is an Octoling based on the Flapjack octopus. They are genderfluid, and thanks to the benefits of the cephalopod form, change their physical appearance regularly just for the hell of it. They vary between masc-leaning and femme-leaning, but usually look some flavor of GNC. (Their physical build remains the same, think of it like how the player characters in Splatoon change their gender and hairstyle. Pop just does that whenever they feel like it.)
They are fruitily charming, outgoing, unserious to a fault, and smug. Pop is a lot more sociable than Lock, often chatting people up or making friends at unexpected times. They are well aware of their charm, but make an effort to be the more likable of the two. They like to introduce themselves first, leading to many close relationships with a lot of people that otherwise would never have talked to them. However, when they dislike someone, they make it VERY known. They are unable to hide their distaste towards anyone they regard as too annoying. They can get aloof at times, but are generally a very peppy and easy-going person.
_________________________________________________________
LOCK:
Lock is an Inkling based on the Whiplash squid. He is the composer and instrumentalist of the duo, and is very talented on the keyboard.
He likes to put on an off-puttingly brooding, "cool guy" persona, but when you get to know him, it becomes clear he is often neurotic and overly sensitive. He can be very visibly depressed, though he tries to play off his inability to take care of himself as part of his uncaring attitude. He pushes people away instinctively, but gets very attached to the people who love him despite this. Unfortunately, he doesn't know how to healthily express his emotions and can get rather sulky and mean, leading his closest personal relationships to be... rather strained at times.
He also has a toxic and ultimately doomed relationship with Tide of Suit-Nami that both Shlubby and I have agreed is very fun to watch as it slowly burns. Sorry Lock, you're fated to lose the best boyfriend you'll ever have :')
_________________________________________________________
There's a lot more to both of their backstories, but for the sake of keeping things simple, here's a condensed version.
Lock was a trust fund baby pushed into idol culture that got shunted off to boarding school once he was deemed more trouble than he was worth by his parents. In a petulant attempt to be acknowledged by them, he regularly commits petty crimes and acts of vandalism, but is bailed out from afar every time to avoid his family name getting bad press. It's a real sore spot for him.
Pop had loving parents who encouraged them to explore their love for music, but after they got older and started posting their music to HueTube, they got relentlessly mocked for being cringe and were devastated. They went to boarding school in an attempt to escape their reputation and worked past their trauma by pouring it into their work and reclaiming their identity.
Pop and Lock were placed together as part of an idol internship program during their last year of school. Pop felt bad for Lock, and specifically requested him as means of lending a hand. Lock had previously avoided them for quite some time, but once they were forced to pair up he realized he had found his first genuine friend.
_________________________________________________________
and, special one-time deal, two extra characters! i literally have never posted (or. ahem. finished) any art of these two, but they fill out the gang behind the scenes and they occupy my brainspace just as much as pop and lock do :)
_________________________________________________________
MONA:
Mona is a halfmoon betta fish and handler-turned-posse-member of the group. She's an underpaid and overworked employee of the idol agency Pop and Lock are employed at, and was assigned to pINK Lemonade to keep them in check after they were involved in one too many incidents (read: PR nightmares)
She has a bit of a temper, as most bettas do, but over time has formed a real relationship with Pop and Lock and does not blow up at them as much as she does others. Their friendship has also helped her loosen up and not let her job consume her soul.
_________________________________________________________
CILAN:
Cilan is a calm, easygoing, tall inkling and the oldest of the four. He has long purple hair and seemingly permanently closed eyes. He's the group's resident eye-candy and secretary/flunky. There isn't a whole lot to his personality that I can say right now. He's just hot... sue me...
_________________________________________________________
Thank you so much for asking about my ocs!!

Wishful
Tumblr media
Part of my Invisible Illness Series
Warnings: PCOS symptoms, moodswings, hair loss, unwanted hair, shaving, reader upset, depression, female reader, a little suggestive at the end
Summary: Why is it always chin hair?!
Tumblr media
Sighing at your reflection in the mirror, you turned your head left and right before sighing again. You had noticed your hair falling out a lot more in the bath lately and when you brushed your hair, something you had struggled with and even with the various oils and potions you still felt that you were losing more hair from your head than you were regrowing back.
And then you had the unwanted body hair.
Especially the ones on your chin and face.
If only you could somehow implant those onto your head, while the ones on your head fell out the ones on your face grew at an almost exponential rate. Despite the plucking, shaving and lasering you did you still had pesky hair coming back like unwanted weeds. It was something you hated, you felt so unattractive and unsexy especially in front of Daichi.
He was so handsome, large frame from his volleyball high school days and muscular arms and legs that he had maintained in the gym. And when he was in his uniform, something he filled all too well, you would always be a little starstruck when he got ready in the morning, tempted to drag him back into bed for a few minutes. Another sigh which turned into a gasp when Daichi walked into the bathroom, he was in a pair of sweatpants and nothing else, yawning as he scratched his head cutely.
"Morning, babe."
You smiled back, eyes catching his in the reflection of the mirror as he stood behind you. But when he leaned over to give you a kiss you sidestepped him and patted his chest instead, turning to leave you halted when he grabbed your wrist gently. His other hand holding your waist as he tugged you forward so you were stood toe to toe.
"Morning breath that bad?"
You shook your head, not trusting yourself to speak at this time. His hand coming under your chin, you pushing your chin to your chest so he couldn't feel the bristles against his palm. You tried to move again, but his arms were around you and with his bulky frame it made escaping impossible.
"Baby..."
"It's nothing. You need to get ready for work and-"
Your sentence cut off when he leaned his forehead against yours, pushing you against the wall gently so you were restrained even more this time. The concern shining in his eyes, his mouth tipped down in a small frown as he scanned you up and down, looking for a reason that you dodged his kiss.
"You know I love you and nothing you say or do will change that. But I'm upset that you won't discuss this with me... especially since I'm pretty sure it's the same reason you skipped the work dinner yesterday with my colleagues."
Last night you had gotten all ready to meet Daichi for dinner, put on your favourite dress and make up... but one look in the mirror and you had felt horrible. You looked bloated, stomach accentuated by the cut of the dress and your skin was starting to break out so you could see all your imperfections under the make up. The hairstyle you had tried had shown more of your thinning hair than you'd like, your excited mood instantly evaporated and you ended up undressing, showering and climbing into bed crying.
"Look at me." You did, wet eyes meeting his as he kissed your forehead. "You're my wife. Nothing about you is anything but amazing. You're allowed to have a bad day, everyone does, but I really wish you would talk to me and not shut me out. Sickness and health means just that, whatever worries you have about yourself do not take away from how much I love and adore you. Ok?" You nodded, silent tears streaming down your face at his confession. "Now, come shower with me and then we'll go out and have brunch."
He turned with a sharp tap on your ass and wink, sweatpants falling the floor in a heap.

Okay, so I watched Winx season 4...
....and I am not okay with it!
These are my full notes & thoughts.... aka one big rant👀
Okay so a quick reminder that I watched the German dub of season 4 so if I mention voice actors it's always the German ones. Oh, and I don't consider anything post movie #1 canon. Okay that's it, thank you. Now let's start the rant.
Episode 1:
the opening cringed right in 🙄
all of a sudden Faragonda comes to mind, that there is another stage of transformation - all of a sudden
the Trix picture in the Hall of Enchantments saved my day
Of course, Bloom has to touch everything again (the curtain in front of the wizards' picture was there on purpose, bloom!)
Winxologie doesn't sound arrogant at all, Tecna
Layla thinks dancing is also a class
"The winx are all totally in love with themselves" Clarice yes, you so right
Amaryl is still with the freshmen 🤣
if Bloom had said she hadn't done it, Faragonda would have believed her - poor Alice isn't extra enough yet to be the teacher's pet. Maybe if she is also the princess of a lost kingdom she eventually has the chance to become Faragonda's new favorite
he (Ogron) talks (has the same voice actor as) like cool cake (Codatorta don't ask why I call him cool cake I just do)
Episode 3:
how ruthless the Winx are (again I forgot what they did. probably them totally failing every fkn job)
zombie stuffed animals wtf girls
these animals are so UGLY and not cute
Episode 4:
why are you so shitty with the boyz? They just want to help you??!! Another hint, that skloom is dammed
no seriously the boys are just there being nice, ready to help and the Winx (mainly Bloom) are UGHHHHH YOU DON'T TRUST US
>:((((((((((
Episode 5
why don't you use fairy dust to turn the ass ugly fairy animals back? Rainbow be like: FCK CONTINUITY!
the Winx are the problem, not the specialists (they treat the boys like shit 😭)
Roxy's dad is lol. how can you have such a bad memory? best thing is calling HELIA -> TOBIAS xD
Why is Musa's bear called Pepe? Wasn't there another name? The name is already taken, Rainbow! :(
Episode 6
why this new hairstyle boys? helia looks so stupid. he was the cute, mysterious cool boy and now he is the freak with the bangs
Episode 8
it's no wonder, that Stella wasn't allowed to drive a car on Solaria. i mean it's stella and i don't want to know how high radius' bill was for all the crashed cars 😂
of course everyone can ride a horse now! Didn't bloom say she can't ride a horse in the 2nd movie? fck continuity
at least Musa is allowed to sing alone in this ep! give musa the musical attention she deserves and fck bloom. give the fire girl an instrument and let musa sing, she's the goddamn fairy of music!
nabu and timmy are the only non toxic bfs lmao i love them
Episode 9
Erendor suuuper inconspicuous
you were on Sparx? Sparx? Not Domino? U sure?
i love Erendor's rant. still why can't he rule? does this man need vacation so badly? why is sky even king? sense come out where u hiding
Tumblr media
the bed is minimally exaggerated
Episode 10
Roxy be like: I'm not like you, Bloom. I don't want to be special. lemme be a normal earth girl and chill. no need to make me a PRINCESS IN THE FUTURE *cough*
you're listening to the police radio, Tecna? ok how criminal of you lmao
not Musa being a toxic bitch again. that's why i ship driven
Tumblr media
Stella x Musa (even though musa is wrong but this cute. i love when they are sweet with each other. in s1 and s2 they had their problems but since s3 they're such besties)
Episode 11
musa, jason is your producer, not your boyfriend
➡ nothing against age gaps but he is clearly interested in her because she has talent, not because she has boobs
➡ and wTf you HAVE a boyfriend, musa! poor riven, my boi 😭
nabu x layla!!!!! (i will say it again and again, they built them up to destroy them and that is unnecessary drama! 😭
Episode 14
yes musa, short hair does suit you better
➡ also stella saying that long hair is the best thing ever is pretty rude against tecna? but hey, she's cool with it: stella: hair is the most effective weapon of seduction a girl has - Tecna: oh really, i though it was the brain - burrrrrn (in the German dub it's even meaner of stella because she explicitly says LONG hair is the most effective weapon a girl has)
Bloom didn't want to be a fairy at first like Roxy?? gurl, you were totally into it! it was you stupid dream after all
if stella had seen brandon being nice to a girl she's be mad? Ehm, they used to make a game out of who flirts with more people. real stella would chill, s4 stella would explode
yes riven, you just don't have a relationship base this season makes it more obvious than ever
and the animals just stay free in the city? ok...
Episode 15
YOU BROKE UP WITH HIM, MUSA! don't act as if HE was the problem🤯
Also do we see Mitzi as a fairy ever again? no? ok
Episode 16
oh brilliant Faragonda can't solve the mystery of the white circle? loser
who said that Bloom is the one singing? who is the music fairy? i think it's not her for sure!?
WHY DOES BLOOM SING?!
Poor Riven bb
yes Riven, change yourself completely, then everything will be fine. i mean rivusa shipping aside, it's never good to change yourself for another person. musa fcks up just as much as he does. maybe they just have to face that they don't work together? never ever try to become someone you are not. if a person wants YOU to change, better question the relationship with that person
➡ ngl rainbow could have written them better. it's a mystery why they don't make them break up before s7. it's simply not working
bloom has to address twice that she is a clever fairy to sky in case he forgets
➡ WHO HAS TO CALL ONESELF CLEVER AGAIN AND AGAIN MIGHT BE NOT SO CLEVER IRL I DON'T MAKE THE RULES
Episode 17
 Tir Nan Og is near Ireland BUT it's a tropical island. makes sense
ehm is it just me or does Morgana looks exactly like the mermaid queen of andros' whose name i forgot?
Tumblr media
hm not even that much. maybe it's the shape of their faces
Episode 18
Roxy is veeeeery emotional
brandon, don't say "you act like ex-lovers", that's very mean
you have been arguing a lot lately, musa? You argue ALL THE TIME!
Episode 19
essential oils or essential fairies? 🤣 why? i can't take them serious with that name. it sounds like "This is eucalyptus, this is peppermint, and this is lavender"🤣
do they build up nabu x layla so lovely, so that the end is even more tragic?? fck you rainbow
Tumblr media
not stella patting the snake 🐍🤣 i love how she is not AHHHHH :0 but t AWWWWWW >.&lt;
Episode 21
Tumblr media
not musa kissing andy in fkn front of riven!!!
since when has it been the winx's dream to become musicians? since yesterday? ok
ogron, you serious? Don't give them the black circle
not musa worrying they'll be late for their show. i mean girls, it's the world that has to be saved again. fck your damn gig
not the German dub putting the cherry on top again with giving us some extra lines when in the original is just a "huh" when the winx discover sybilla's pan fairy minions:
Tumblr media
➡ bloom: cute *v* - stella: ..you really think so? (same girl)
bloom: we have the gIfT oF hEaRt!! Stella: the power of prudence would be a more suiteable one - omg stella slay
riven sings.. he really sings. that proves again which's bf he is
no but seriously it's so nice that the boys want to play out time to make sure the winx will have their performance too later
➡ musa: YOU WANT TO STEAL US OUR SUCCESS!!!! >:(((((( JKLDFHIDHFSFHK they made it to guarantee that YOU can still perform!
Episode preview: The Winx….and Roxy
➡ as much as you try Roxy, you'll never be a Winx 😂
Episode 22
Tecna...
Tumblr media
....who put you in that dress???
the wizards are all 4 my boyz and i love them
Episode 23
bloom isn't thinking at all again EWEWEW I WilL fIgHt YoU! Yes, go on. Fight against the fairy of WAR. you sure got good chances. and why she alone? why of all things HER?
nebula: you will pay for your arrogance ➡️ Yes girl
Aurora be like: worried…but for my ice tower!
➡️ love it how she gives no fcks about nebula but is only worried about her home
is it that simple? Roxy just gotta say please please and Morgana is aw okay I won't go on with the war against the humans
black gift: ah good, you can prevent a death, well you certainly won't act in haste i'm sure (spoiler: in the end it's not their fault at all and that is really a plot twist. i already saw bloom saving some stranger just to waste the gift so that nabu has to die. but it's not that case. idk how to feel about it. yaay fairies you did your best?)
Episode 24
Totally normal that a rabbit pays for pizza. wtf Gardenia you all high there?
layla speculating about the future 😭
nebula that ol' bitch was always the fairy of peace - now of war WAHAHA i think that's kinda neat. also nebula is a queen
until he (nabu) awakens?? Isn't he quite dead?
ok he is completely dead. then don't spoil us with little hints of hope that he might open his eyes again ok?
bloom: too baaaaad......not that i could use my dragon flame healing bring ppl bak to live powers on him nooo *whistle*
Episode 25
Layla is now eViL
do these tragic flashbacks have to be???😭😭
Red Fountain?? wtf German dub, it was always Rote Fontäne!, duuuh
another tragic flashback 😭
hard cut and at the end enchantix again? which animator was sloppy here?
nebula is such a queen
layla badass
secret revealed: morgana is roxy's mom - yes come on we ALL saw that coming
we give a fck about continuity again and act as if it wasn't centuries ago that the fairies were defeated at earth WTF. how is it even possibible that morgana was with claus?? sense, wherever you are, COME OUT
Episode 26
to name an episode without ice & fire without having ICY in it, is mean tho
one could have made nebula's and layla's change of mind more exciting
➡️ it was like: Oh, OH we're GOOD again! <3
nebula the real queen and she got what she deserved, i love that
Overall:
yeh this season is so cringe, okay? i watched 26 episodes and i feel like nothing really happened? the plot was so lame and slow. i mean, look what happens in s1-s3 in all the episodes. there was so much more going on. it was just relationship drama and unncecessary i gotta say. if they have to write rivusa so toxic then why don't they simply break them up and give them a harmonic ending? maybe being friends is better for them? also no fan of musa becoming a girly bitch with long hair. give me back my tomboy. i have to say too: a season without the trix is no real season even though the wizards are cool. also faragona is so useless let's don't talk about that. and the winx were teachers for ONE episode and after that they are like: meh no we live now our ugly love and pet life in gardenia. the pets, the PETS. i HATE them. they are so ugly. I mean the pixies had a plot they had to fulfill. they had a SENSE in the winx universe. the pets are just ...ugh. not cute. Then Roxy: my opinion on her: she's a bit over dramatic but fine i guess? still wonder why her wings are so big if she is no believix fairy. nebula, diana and aurora were really cool but come on, we did not really need this season. then the criticism that everyone has: wtf with the second movie. where does it take place? why is nabu alive? why do they have their beliviex? it's just that this season was rushed and the plot was meh. and i know it gets worse so let's face it. winx ended after the first movie and this is an ass ugly boring and lame written ff au.
And yes, I will go on with the detailed comments on s1. these notes here were just randomly taken on my phone and i felt the need to share them.

Late for work ✨
Rosho and Sasara x reader, you just refuse to let them go by delaying their release as long as possible.
Warnings: none in particular, maybe something slightly suggestive, but nothing explicit.
Rosho
° You look at the clock on the wall and the clock on your cell phone successively, in a few minutes he should leave for work. He is already ready, having breakfast with you while he corrects some homework for his students. A tense silence flooded the room, only the passing of leaves and his pen is heard.
° you sigh before taking another sip of your tea, you look at his cup and see that he already finished everything and even ate his toast. He starts to pick up his things and put them away, it's a little before usual time, so you rush to finish your drink so you can see him off at the door.
° You approach the hall with an anguished look, squeezing your hands anxiously. Seeing you that way, he can't help but copy your sad face. "You can't always do the same, you know I'll be back!" He doesn't want to separate either but if he says so he knows you'll find a way to make him stay.
°"I know that but, today is the day you come home late... and... tomorrow you have to go with Sasara and Rei to practice" making puppy eyes, you put your hands in a sign of supplication. "No, don't do that to me!" The briefcase that he was holding firmly in his hand loosens a bit, he has very little resistance when you start acting like that because he is not very strict with you and you always manage to make him less and less so.
° "It's still a little early look…" you point to the clock on the wall and even though you say early, it's only a few minutes and you both know it. Rosho draws a deep breath, letting his shoulders and the briefcase drop. Resigned, he opens his arms for you but avoids making eye contact, instead he looks at a random spot to the right of him.
° Smiling at your victory, you rush to fill his face with kisses, holding him by the neck so that he is at your height, even so you stand on your toes to reach his forehead. A delicate blush adorns his cheeks and, pretending to look at it, you try to take off his glasses.
° "No, I'll really be late…" he says looking at you fixedly, he already knows that when you take his glasses it's to force him to look for them and that never ends quickly. One of his hands moves to your face and cradles you.
° "So you can do that?" You smile preparing "that?... So I can go to work without you missing me?" He waits for your response, but he only does it as a formality and he smiles too before placing one hand on the back of your neck and one on your back to pull you back.
° he curves over you, in such a way that you must lift one leg for balance, trusting his grip, otherwise you will fall easily. Giving you a very passionate and slow kiss, you can't help but interrupt him to laugh loudly on his lips. Pressing against his body you enjoy the moment.
°Every time he does that you feel like you're one step away from melting, being as shy and reserved as he is, you don't know when he took the initiative to say goodbye like that on especially long days, but you enjoy them so much that you don't really care .
° When he is about to separate, you start the kiss again, holding tightly to his back, causing him to laugh too. A couple of strands have messed up from his neat hairstyle, falling over his eyes and tickling your cheeks. On these occasions he wonders what the farewell would be like if he were away from home for a few days.
Sasara
° You open your eyes with difficulty, it's early in the morning, but Sasara is already dressing in front of the bedroom mirror. Waking up with difficulty you stretch your arms yawning exaggeratedly.
° "Huh? Did you wake up sweetheart? But I almost didn't make noise" speaking almost loudly is drilling your brain. "Shhhh, you're yelling" you say trying to lower your voice as you crawl across the bed to where he is.
° Observing your movements through the mirror, despite your complaint, he keeps shouting "ahh! Are you going to say good morning to me?" He turns around to give you a chaste kiss on the lips and immediately goes back to arranging his wardrobe.
° Today he would film a segment for a program and they had made an appointment at a very early hour, that was not very unusual, the strange thing was that given the remoteness of the place and the duration of the filming, he would only return for the afternoon of the following day. You don't want to bother him with his work, but you know that even though it's only one day, you're going to miss him so you want to take advantage of every remaining moment.
° Still behind him, you run your hands up his back, caressing him and pulling at his clothes. "Hey!" He rearranges his shirt and you undo a button on his jacket. "You had put it on wrong…" you pretend to help him and undo the knot of his tie. Without losing his smile for a second, he tries to fix his clothes as fast as you ruin them, but he doesn't succeed.
° he takes a step away from the bed and looks at you funny through the mirror, forcing you to stand up to reach him. Complaining, you stretch a little more and catch him by the waist, hugging him with the intention that he can't keep moving.
° "ohh? You don't want me to go?..." You respond with an exaggerated groan against his back. You stand up and kiss his shoulder causing him to laugh. "Why does it have to be so long?" you ask in a cracked voice, conveying your sadness.
° You kiss his other shoulder and you reach his neck kissing him too. He gets so excited when you put affectionate that he can't help but scream. He turns in your arms to face you so he can kiss you gently. "Don't be like that… I promise I'll be back as soon as possible, I'll also bring those sweets you like so much" his tone calmed down and you know he means it.
° You don't want to distress him so you try to give him your best smile, but instead he has his eyes open and is trying to reassure you by giving his words seriousness and that breaks you. You put your complaints away and just kiss him, leaning your body against him, taking a deep breath as you give up.
° Or so he thought, your hands return to his clothes and you ruin his shirt once more, but you do it so slowly that he even feels sorry for you. Walking away from you, he smiles playfully, taking off his jacket and unbuttoning his pants "I can let a train pass, don't you think?..." He says before throwing himself on the bed on top of you, crushing you for a brief second before kissing you intensely, keeping you firmly under him.
° Both laugh under the touch of the other, but slowly the laughter turns into gasps and moans when their caresses become daring and lustful. They easily forget the schedule, giving in to their desires once again, despite the fact that they had already said goodbye in this way the night before.
