finally taking a look at the oscars' nominations. it's given me another reason to finally sit down and watch society of snow (decide if I must protest when it's snubbed OR when it's awarded. obviously). AND may december but I would do that either way since it's by far the film I'm most interested in watching from this past year.
as usual los goya look more interesting. sure hope society of snow doesn't disappoint me though, because it's been nominated to like 13 categories, it has a good chance for a huge sweep, and i don't want a repeat of the fucking dull fest that was as bestas last year... honestly even if it's great i rarely think a film deserves that many lbr.

I asked for this
Context: Well before session 0 of this campaign I approached my dm about my character. She is a "human" (technically undead) zealot barbarian/phantom rogue. I pitched the idea that she doesn't remember much of anything about her past, except she sold her soul to her god on the battlefield so she could continue fighting. Only for that god to keep bringing her back to life to serve his bidding. DM loved this.  We joked about how healing abilities like cure wounds should harm instead of heal cause . Then decided lets do it. So we both agreed to this character, and I love it. DM and I agreed we should inform them about the healing thing ahead of time.  
The Session DM: Alright. How are you doing?
Me: 5 hp I'm doing fine.
DM: Great. Alright [Druid] your move.
Druid: Ok. First, bonus action healing word on [Me]. That's 6 not too bad. 
Me: Whelp. 
DM: Alright. So. Druid. You cast healing word, and you notice something strange. Instead of the bright light you usually see as it hits [Me] it curls into this disgusting dark color. 
Me: And I fall over?
DM: Indeed you do. 
Party: *Freaks out* 
Druid: THAT SHOULD HAVE HEALED HER WHAT HAPPENED?
Paladin: I DON'T KNOW! I DON'T RECOGNIZE THIS?
Me:...
DM: ...
Me: We forgot to tell them didn't we.
DM: I think we did.
Paladin: FORGOT TO TELL US WHAT?
Me: So.... Cause she's undead--
Bard: SHE'S UNDEAD?!
Me: We thought it'd be funny to have healing spells harm her, and necrotic damage heal her... sorry we meant to tell you guys. 
DM: I'm blaming you. 
Me: Fair. 
DM: Ok, [Druid] I'm letting you redo your turn, cause I swore one of us told you.
Druid: Uhhhh oh ha! I have wither and bloom! So if I attack [Me] with the necrotic I can heal another character? 
DM:.... I'm starting to hate that I agreed to this.
Me: NEW HACK!

i am NOT late to day one of Redactedtober 2023
ive never posted or shared fanfics before and im hella nervous to do so esp because i put this together in two hours with no proofreading
but i suppose now is as good a time as ever to post 🫡
uhhhh
1.3k words
cw: implied family trauma/abuse, read at ur own discression. nothing is "seen" in the fic.
Characters: Lovely x Vincent
prompt: Home
tagging: @specter-soltare @xanyiaz
Lovely shut off the car, sitting silent in the driveway for just a moment. They wanted to take a good look at the house before them. It'd been years.
Their childhood home.
They didn't know what exactly was pulling them, urging them to drive here today, they just knew they needed to see it again.
It wasn't nostalgia, really. There weren't many happy memories made in that house, so it wasn't like they missed it or anything. Just the opposite.
They stepped out of the car, leaves falling apart below their feet. The place could use some intense landscaping and yardwork, seems it hadn't been touched in decades. Moss had overwhelmed the front facing walls, the roof drain pipe was overfull with fallen leaves and pine needles, and god knows what else.
"Time has not been kind to you." They stated as they stuffed their hands in their pockets. With a sigh, they walked up the driveway. They weren't going to get caught for tresspassing, or breaking and entering, the house hadn't been touched in ages anyways. They also had no desire to go in the place, they just wanted to...peak around.
And peak they did.
Through the kitchen windows, they saw the old appliances they once used on a daily basis. The creaky cabinets were still the same, too.
Next was the living room windows. The house looked so different with no furniture, but it still felt all the same. You can't remove the memories of a place by replacing wallpaper or a fancy new rug.
They remembered what it was like, getting them and their siblings up for school each day. Taking care of the littles was important to Lovely. They needed to show them that if no one else, their older sibling wanted the best for them. Early mornings making breakfast, late nights helping the kids with homework, or trying to distract the young ones from the bickering down the hallway.
They hoped they had a good life now. Hoped they were happy.
With a heavy breath, they walked to the backyard gate, pushing the old metal back to let themselves in. The old tire swing came into view. A half smile grew over Lovely's face. Bittersweet.
Pushing the kids on the old rubber wheel, the laughter filling their memories. It was just enough to make them tear up for a moment.
They sat down on the swing, for the first time in years. The branch holding it leaned with the weight, but held strong just as well.
This house wasn't a happy one. It was... only okay for a few years. But the walls grew cold fast, and the warmth just never returned. It was as if it was built on a hellmouth, doomed from the beginning.
6:14 am. Shit, it's getting late. They needed to get home before the sun rose, Vincent would be getting back soon anyways. They stood from the swing and walked back to the car, looking back only once before they reached the car.
They drove with the top down on the car, taking in all the cool October air in their hair. The drive was therapeutic, leaving their old living quarters in the past.
As they pulled into the driveway, they smiled. A real smile. They took their time going inside, they just wanted to appreciate the place for what it is.
The garage smell that they hated, the quiet squeak in the door to the house, even the paint on the walls. (It was starting to chip, and the couple had planned on getting it fixed up, or even painting it a new color entirely, but for now they appreciated the wear and tear).
They wandered the place as if it was brand new to them, appreciating every doorframe and lightswitch in their path. Sure, it might seem goofy to take pride in these minor details but... to them, these things were signs of new beginnings. Happiness. A new life.
Lovely stumbled into the guest bedroom, the one they had taken over shortly after meeting Vincent. Some of their things still lived here in this room, but more as a decoration now.
They sat down on the bed, picturing the moment they had woken after Sam healed them. Lovely remember Vincent sitting next to them in the chair. How guilty he felt after the conflict happened. How they reached from the bed to lace their pinkies, a form of affection they share with him now. A way of reassuring him or themselves that things are okay. Will be okay. They had each other, through everything.
Lovely stood up, opening the doors to the, albeit small, closet. It was so cramped once they had officially moved in as Vincents... "little roommate," and the thought of the nickname made them laugh just as it had when he first said it.
Nothing besides some shelves and hangers existed in the closet now, making the space seem much bigger than they previously remembered.
Lovely heard Vincent pull into the garage now, his music blasting as always. They told him more than once that if they had closer neighbors, they'd get so many noise complaints because of him. (But that usually ended with him saying something about how the pair could give the neighbors something "different" to listen to, instead).
"Lovely?" His voice echoed through the house, but they were too focused on memories and appreciation to answer him just yet. They heard him placing the blood bags into the fridge, but they also smelt it, too. They delighted in the idea of feeding soon, but not yet.
"Baby? Whatcha doin'?" He asked, he had traced their aura to the guest bedroom. A look of confusion and curiousity played across his face when he found them standing inside the closet, of all places. It was weird enough for them to be in this bedroom, let alone the closet.
Lovely reached over with a smile, pulling him in with them. "Hi." They wrapped their arms around him, taking in the smell of him as much as they could.
Vincent stumbled slightly, he wasn't expecting his partner to practically jump in his arms upon greeting them. Or being pulled into the closet, but uh...priorities?
"Hi," He laughed, pressing a kiss to the top of their forehead, "you doin' alright?"
"Never been better." They mumbled into his chest softly. They reached for their boyfriends hand, lacing their fingers before pressing kisses to each one.
"Well... I'm glad you're good. But uh... any particular reason we're standing in the closet of your old bedroom right now? I mean, I'll hold you wherever you want me too, but it's a little cramped in here." He took a moment to look around them, realizing just how tiny it was. One wrong move and he could bump his head on a shelf or something.
"I know! I know. It's perfect, isn't it?" Lovely squealed, practically bouncing in their spot. This earned them a laugh out of Viincent, who was still very puzzled by his partner, but whatever made them happy made him happy.
"Well, I brought home some blood bags, if you want to join me for one?" He asked. It had been a couple days since the pair had fed, and it'd be nice to feed again soon.
"Hold on, just wait. I want to stay here for just a minute."
"So... while we are here, you wanna explain what exactly we're doing in the closet right now?" Their boyfriend asked, though he showed no intention from moving from where he stood, his arms wrapped tightly around his partner.
"I was just... appreciating the place. The life I have now. And now that you're here... my home." They looked up with a smile, leaning on their toes to kiss him on the cheek. The sentiment made vincent smile wide, nodding as he pulled them in as close as possible. He shared that sentiment too, Lovely was just as much his home as he was theirs.
They wouldn't have it any other way.

🌑 f/o list:
i got lots of them, look out lolol.
they come from things i fixate enough on. there's a whole process of how they come about, there's even a thing in my noggin called The Processor, developing f/os. i have other fictional crushes, you can ask for those but its a long list so these are just the ones that i pretend exist commonly. those are the f/os for on my blog.
once more, i dont mind sharing f/os!! i believe fictional people arent owned by anyone but their copyright holders lol, but my version of the character is going to be different from yours, our own experiences, headcanons, etc. even if there could be some in common too, so it doesnt effect me or my comfort if other people love them too. other people who understand the loveliness of the f/o are just who i can talk to and relate to!! i would love to talk about them or yours :0
if you dont like sharing, then i wont talk about them with you so you can be comfy or dont have to interact, thats ok too. i know some people dont for comfort reasons or something. or youre just gatekeepers 👀 /j
there are tags you can block for f/os. if you dont like to share or dont like the f/o themselves, you can block them through "🌑 obscure f/o: 🔲" but 🔲 = the f/o's emoji. the f/o's emojis can be found in the long version of the list below. it doesnt offend me if you dont want to see the f/o or their content!
. 🌑 .
f.o. list below the drop down, its kind of long!! also there's gifs, one of them is a bit flashy, so watch your eyes. if you want the short version of the list without the cool gifs, colors, n details:
Gerard Butler's Phantom of the Opera
Bela Lugosi's Count Dracula
Tim Burton + Disney Headless Horsemen. BOTH of them. 🖤💙
too many robert englund characters- Freddy Krueger, Smiley, Inkubus, other ones, uhhhh=
Jason Voorhees
Data
other f.o.
ones being protected for sake of my comfort, not on the f/o list for the time being. . though they /could/ get their own things later or only on certain comments or posts for them.
there could be some pet f/os, but idk. theyre very occasional for me.
"ghosting" or other f/os that i dont know for certain are there, arent developed yet, dont exist very often, etc.
• ------- ⋅☾ 🌑 ☽⋅ ------- •
by order of existence:
their name or what/who they are!
Source (year of source) - where the f/o comes from
est. (year) - when they became an f/o
other notes - just some other notes :0
they have colors just cause i wanted to make them pretty, the colors dont mean anything specifically. the emojis are just for later reference for f/o content.
. 🌑 .
"Gerik" 🥔 (Gerard Butler's Phantom; Erik)
Phantom of the Opera (2004)
technically not the first f/o ever, but he's the one who wasnt what i consider "proto-f/o"
est. 2017?? i dont remember when i was a freshman in high school lolol.
i have a couple of other phantoms too, but they're considered retired and live in some other world now. they just visit sometimes. those were from the Broadway musical, 1943, and 1990.
Tumblr media
Vlad Dracula 🦇
Dracula (1934)
(yes, the old Bela Lugosi one. OLD F/O. <33)
est. 2018 or so, pretty close to my POTO obsession.
there's the Count Von Count (from Sesame Street-) f/o too who kind of stemmed off of the Drac fixation?? 2018/2019 or so, he's the queerplatonic comfort. 🦇 💜
Tumblr media
Headless Horsemen (i have 2, i love BOTH of them.)
Sleepy Hollow (1999) & The Adventures of Ichabod Crane and Mr. Toad/The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (1949)
Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow 💀est. 2019, Disney 🎃one est. same year but later!
They have their own lore + f/o headcanoned names, horses, so these horsemen are different from yours and the canon too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Freddy Krueger 🥓(yes, Fred, oh god-)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984-1991, I don't include New Nightmare in my f/o's lore/tweaks? but I do FvsJ!!)
est. 2021. . ??
He DOES NOT have any relations to the remake, he is exclusively the original series and FvsJ content. i BEG OF THEE do not associate him with it RGRHRHH- (no hate towards remake fans, he's just NOT MY FREDERICK. 😤)
for those of you convinced the original's a diddler too, tho. . not my frederick. <3
Tumblr media
The Rob Squad:
this is what i call the f/os that come from me becoming a loser for robert englund after freddy lolol.
all of them est. between 2021-2023 i think. so theyre new, but theyre very developed tho.
there are some other f/os of other rob characters, but theyre not developed enough/formed to be for certain??
includes: Smiley, Inkubus, other ones for later, down below:
Smiley :) ⛓
The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)
VERY lore heavy on my f/o, he has so little on him canonically, so i gave him some. My smiley is def not the exact same as yours.
he has NO CONTENT PLZ- i had to make this gif and i dont have good quality video tools >:"0 the head motion looks spooky fast for me idk how to fix iT.
Tumblr media
Inkubus 🖤
Inkubus (2011)
other tweaks/lore to him too. like demon and goat forms 👀
im nOT a loser for old men (normally), just this one >:"0 but we do support loving old men here, dont worry bros. <3
Tumblr media
Jason Voorhees 🏒
Friday the 13th (1980, im still watching FT13 so what movies get involved with his f/o form are still being developed. he's very. . ghost-ie rn between existing and not yet existing. they take time to develop for me.)
est. 2023
yes, it does get difficult with Freddy around. *sigh.*
relationship not known?? comfort f/o, bit of lore/tweaks for him too.
Tumblr media
Data ⭐
Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987-1994 i think??)
platonic?? im not really sure what the relationship is, he's just helpful and comforting.
Spot included.
est. late 2023/2024, very new & developing as of this post.
Tumblr media
. 🌑 .
for the one person who sent me an ask for my f/os: @wicked1will0sparkles

More pics of my dear pixel children. Gonna be a long post, so hiding it under a read more o7
Tumblr media Tumblr media
N'jinh actually looks pretty okay on benchmark, but he's already getting his entire face redone since I want him to use different base than Hawu'li. But he has that lazy, kinda dead eyed look too :/ Like the cheeck paintings showing up better tho!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Naho is mostly better, but I don't like the kinda wet glow on her nose + will have to do some adjusting to her skintone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Good god Yulan looks so dead behind those eyes D: Like horrifyingly empty... Benchmark also seems to make everyone into some weird yellowish hue.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Firn..... weird lighter eyebags aside (I think it's one of the face paints so it should be easy to fix at least), they stole his pretty, thick white eyelashes?? And why is his nose so dark, everyone else I've seen complains benchmark made their's too light??? (There's also some really weird graphical bug of his hair clipping really fast through that metal part of his feather hairpiece lol).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Einn is otherwise fine, but some weird graphical error eats his eye dot (it's just a tiny " / " line instead) and I have this weird feeling they made his eyes wider? Like they used to be very narrow, and now they are bigger around the middle. Also not a fan of his new lip color :/
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Momo honestly rocks the new look! My only complaint is that their nose looks very different, but it honestly fits them better. Very much a fan of the more rounded chin too, but I could see some people disliking it on their characters. Also very positively surprised by the new limbal ring, it fits in better and gives their white eye a nice glow.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meanwhile Chili looks a bit off? I loooooove the horn and scale textures, but his skin has a very weird green tinge I absolutely hate, as well as the new metal tips on horns (why same color as horns?? what's the point if I can't even see them?). His limbal rings are a bit funny with his eyecolor, so definitely have to tweak those little.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gee, Fish, who does your mom let you have eyeshine? Honestly she's looking very nice too, can't really find anything to complain about. Extra points for finally making her mouth look better.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ryne looks very good too, lalas are clearly the true winners here. Even her new eyecolor is closer to Ryne's. Interesting how her eyeshape seems to have changed too, but unlike Hawu'li hers actually fits her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hyth..... love, what on earth happened? Why is you face so round? Where did your eyebrows go? Why is you nose wider? What happened to your lips? Hydaelyn help me.... I'd almost say it's worse than Hawu'li's face changes :/
Super secret bonus: unnamed elezen base I played around with in character creation last week
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Uhhhh there are some nice points, like the shade of his new lips, but I do not like how bumpy the new shadows make his face :/

uhhhh since he just got a ref, 🍀, 🥊, and 🧠 for ghost host????
HI DUDE Um sorry I forgot to answer this Im forgetful
🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?
when i was doing some research on being otherkin, specially ghostkin, I saw a post of someone talking abt it and they referred to themself as “your ghost host” and my brain said. Yeah I need to make that.
(I don’t remember who it was but if I find that I’ll link it here)
also this cool ass moodboard I found in a discord server
Tumblr media
(On that note, Ghost Host’s design was supposed to be more colorful but I’m not really good at that… so I’m making up for that by making crazy art with him because he’s so sillay and like evil in a weird way absolutely batshit crazy and they deserve some crazy colors and eyestrain and glitch effects and)
🥊 -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?
they LOVE making things up!! Whether that is stories, plans, question, answers, whatever. He’s always been proud of his imagination
they hate cleaning up the mess his shenanigans make though…
🧠 - What do you like most about the OC?
He’s genuinely just SO FUN, fun to draw and write and talk about and everytime I think about them I come up with something new, I love how he can go from very silly to very scary so fast, I can do whatever I want this guy. And I can love and hate them at the same time.
also @butterscotch-goat u asked the first one too so I’m tagging u here. Because you’re so normal abt them <3

Tag 9 people you want to get to know better!
Tagged by @howuart and. Okay so apparently I got tagged by @west-brooke a bit back but I didn’t even see that I’m sorry ah ;-;
Currently reading:
New Hardware by @west-brooke . I usually read more often (fanfics, I mean) but I’ve been busy with a lot of other stuff, rip.
Favorite Color:
Purple is my absolute most favorite color!! But teal is a close second (the enby of colors, neither green nor blue. Truly both yet neither).
Last song:
Uhhhhhhh Scapeg♾️at by GHOST. I love the vibes.
Last Movie:
I don’t remember, actually. I don’t watch movies very often, I can never sit through them unless I’m doing something else at the same time—I use long YouTube videos for background noise while I’m drawing, though!
Sweet/Spicy/Savory:
Savory? Maybe? Definitely not spicy. I’m a super picky eater (sensory issues be damned) and I need stuff to taste a certain way a lot of the time. I will fucking know if something I’m eating isn’t what I’m used to and I hate that over-sensitivity.
Currently working on:
Editing New Hardware for @west-brooke (I’m realizing now that I @ ed you three times in one post god damn), finishing up a commission for a friend and then I have two other commissions lined up after that, and making more content/drawing more stuff for my LMK Morro au.
Ignore the fact that I’m working on a lot of things at once it’s fine
Tagging:
God I’m never good at this part but uhhhh @rina-calavera @anxiousworm @shimospookyapple @cats-crows-and-cryptids @fairytail-multishipper @the-violet-galaxy @priska-prisma @dontlookforme00 @ilovemorro

 A little a uhhhh Alexei flashback I suppose
CW: pet whump, non sexual nudity (whumpee being bathed), a pair of creepy whumpers, abandonment
***
 “I have an important guest coming over this evening, so I need you to look your best, Doll.” Nicholas explained as he ran the bath. Alexei just nodded, anxiously fidgeting with the hem of his shorts. Nicholas had guests over from time to time, but usually it wasn’t much of Alexei’s concern, so he figured this must’ve been really important if he were now involved. 
 He tried not to let the anxiety bother him too much. He didn’t like meeting new people, it made him nervous, but before that, the day had gone rather well. Some days were better than others, and that day had been especially good. He’d woken up in Nicholas’ arms, they stayed in bed cuddled up together a while longer before getting up, and Nicholas even allowed him to eat breakfast. He didn’t go to work that day, so Alexei basically spent the entire day on his lap or curled up at his feet, often with Nicholas’ hand running through his hair. At one point he would’ve hated it, he would’ve bitten and hissed like a feral cat, he would’ve tried to escape, but these days the thought didn’t even cross his mind. He’d gotten so used to being here, being with Nicholas, he was happy here. He couldn’t imagine life elsewhere, or as anything other than Nicholas’ Doll.
 Nicholas told him to undress and he did as he was told, he wasn’t shy around him anymore. He dropped his clothes on the floor and Nicholas helped him into the bathtub, after his broken ankle he had trouble balancing at times on his own, even long after it had healed. He settled into the warm water, but he didn’t have time to relax as Nicholas got to work cleaning him up, he didn’t think he was exceptionally dirty but he didn’t have a choice but to let Nicholas do as he pleased. He was gentle though, scrubbed him clean and then washed his hair, every now and then telling him how pretty he was. Nicholas always made him feel pretty. 
 Once he was done he helped him out of the tub and handed him a towel to dry off while he went back into the room, likely to pick out his clothes for him. He had a whole wardrobe of clothing Nicholas had picked for him, a lot had been given as a gift. Of course, everything felt like a gift when he owned nothing. He was drying his hair when Nicholas came back with his clothes and he helped him get dressed, Alexei having to resist the urge to wrinkle his nose in disgust. It wasn’t that the clothes weren’t nice, they absolutely were, but he hated the lacy fabric on that particular top, he hated the way it felt against his skin but he couldn’t complain. He never would’ve worn something like this before, not around other people anyway, but he wasn’t supposed to think about before. Nicholas called them “bad thoughts”. 
 “You’re absolutely lovely, you know that?” Nicholas said, dragging a brush through his hair. The compliment made him smile, made his face go red, he avoided looking at his reflection in the mirror he stood before. Nicholas loved his hair, he said he loved the color, he was always touching it and playing with it. He’d let it grow longer since he’d been there, not that he really had a choice. Nicholas pulled his hair back into a ponytail, the hairtie he used had a pretty red ribbon hanging off it. Again, not something Alexei ever would’ve chosen for himself, but Nicholas knew better, and he trusted him. 
 Alexei wished he could’ve asked about who this guest was. He didn’t know if Nicholas would actually tell him, or if he’d decide it was something he didn’t need to worry about. He always told him that as a pet, he just didn’t need to worry over important *human* things. He never really liked hearing that. 
 “You’re going to behave for me tonight, won’t you?” He asked, turning Alexei to face him and resting his hands on his hips. He nodded, acutely aware of the fact his thumb was resting over the brand on his hip. Nicholas touched it as often as he could, by now Alexei was used to it. “Good boy.” He said, leaning in and kissing his forehead. 
 He was brought downstairs and made to sit in the living room, kneeling on the floor beside the chair Nicholas liked to sit in. Nicholas went to the door to let his guest in, leading a man back into the living room. Something about him bothered Alexei right away, he didn’t know what, he looked like any other man Nicholas worked with, but something about this one made him anxious. He already planned on behaving, but he still reminded himself again to be good, to do whatever he could to avoid drawing this man’s attention. Apparently, that wouldn’t be possible, as the man quickly turned his attention from Nicholas to him, looking amused. 
 “Is this him?” He asked.
 “It is. Doll, can you stand up for us?” Nicholas asked, and Alexei hesitantly did as he was told, nervously looking between the two men. “He’s quieter now, I’ve made sure of that, and he does walk with a bit of a limp, poor thing had a broken ankle that never really healed right.” He said. Alexei found it odd that he explained that as if he hadn’t been the direct cause of that broken ankle. 
 “That’s fine, I don’t think it’ll be a problem.” He said, and Alexei immediately looked to Nicholas for an explanation, his eyes wide with fear. 
 “He’s perfectly obedient now though, I finally trained that terrible attitude out of him.” He laughed. 
 “He’s certainly a gorgeous thing.” The man said, stepping closer to him and tilting his chin up, forcing Alexei to meet his brown eyes. “Look at those pretty eyes… yes, I think you’ll do perfectly…” Alexei was beginning to panic, stumbling back from the man and looking at Nicholas for help.
 No, no this can’t be happening, you can’t let him take me! He silently pleaded, hoping Nicholas would laugh and brush the man off, tell him he couldn’t have Alexei no matter what. 
 “I thought he would.” Nicholas said, smiling at Alexei as though nothing were wrong. “I hope you’ll be good for Mr. Arison, Doll.” At this Alexei dropped to his knees in front of Nicholas, gripping his pantsleg tightly in his hands.
 Please! Please, please you can’t do this! I love you, I love you so much, I’ll do anything, please keep me! He silently begged, desperately mouthing the words as though if he tried hard enough, his voice would come back to him. Nicholas sighed heavily and knelt down, taking Alexei’s shaking hands in his own. 
 “Calm down my love.” He said gently. “You know I love you, and I’ve enjoyed these years with you so much, but… I’m afraid I’ve grown bored of you. You know I’ve never been one to put down pets, I think it’s rather inhumane, so instead, I’ve just found you a new home. You’re such a sweetheart, I know you’ll be just fine with Mr. Arison, he’s going to adore you as much as I do.” He said, smiling at him kindly. Alexei shook his head, he looked at the other man who was watching him expectantly and he realized he was supposed to just go with him, he was supposed to just leave behind the life he’d grown used to and go with this stranger. 
 He felt like he was going to be sick. He had accepted his place as a pet by now, but only as Nicholas’ pet, he knew how to behave for him, he knew how to survive like this, but he did not know that man or what he wanted from him. He didn’t have a choice in the matter though, he already knew that. He glanced around the room frantically, trying to find a way out, but he quickly realized that if he wanted out, then he had to handle it himself. He hadn’t tried this in so long, hadn’t thought about it even, but he would only be a pet if he could belong to Nicholas. He jumped to his feet and attempted to run out of the room, but they both seemed to have been anticipating this, and Nicholas hadn’t been lying about his ankle, he was easily caught and dragged back, and Nicholas shoved him into Mr. Arison’s arms. His arms were painfully wrenched behind his back, he was held in place while Nicholas looked him over. 
 “Oh, one last thing before you go.” He said, Alexei furiously attempted to blink back tears as he looked at him, still desperate that he would change his mind. All his hopes of that were crushed when Nicholas reached out and gently unclasped the collar he wore, the pretty pink one with the little bell he’d worn every day for two years now. He knew that solidified it, he no longer belonged to Nicholas, he was no longer his Doll, his love, his favorite, he was no longer anything to him. If he wasn’t anything to Nicholas, he felt like he wasn’t anything at all.
 Nicholas didn’t say goodbye to him. The last thing he did was remove his collar, and then Alexei was being dragged out of the house, the home he’d hardly left since he first entered it. He tried to fight, he struggled and kicked, his mouth open in a silent scream, but the man, Mr. Arison, was stronger than he was, effortlessly dragging him from the house and down the driveway, to a waiting car. Were he calmer he would’ve realized the man had come prepared for him to struggle, he opened one of the doors and Alexei was pushed face down onto the backseat, held down while his hands were cuffed behind him, the handcuffs had already been waiting in the car for him. 
 He gave up once he was restrained. He knew there was no escape, and that killed him inside. Mr. Arison, his new owner, got in the driver’s seat and started the car, completely ignoring the man sobbing silently in the backseat. He didn’t even bother sitting up, he didn’t want to, he didn’t want to have to face what was happening to him.
 He wanted to pretend this wasn’t happening. He wanted to pretend it was all a bad dream, and though he’d never been particularly religious or spiritual before, he found himself desperately praying that he would wake up in a time before all this, that he would wake up in Nicholas’ arms, back where he had been safe.

Hi! Please call me Frosch, she/they! Er... I think ask is still open? But if not, please ignore me. Thanks, and stay hydrated, fam!💮
So, um... could I please request a match-up? For such fandoms such as one piece, demon slayer.(and I noticed people usually ask for 3, so haikyuu?). Thanks!
So... a bit about me. I'm Gemini, INFP, and I am an introvert, plus a tad shy. Hmmm... I won't call myself kind, but I guess I'm a bit into "fairness" and whatnot. I try to help people in need but hate being tricked or being lied to, hate cheaters and playboys and etc etc. Meeting such people, my last screws gets loose, and i turn into an angry chihuahua. No shyness anymore, only a female Hulk. XD But anywho! I also adore my family and close ones, even if I don't show it by expressing it by words as often as others do. Usually, I just try to show it by gifting or getting to know their likes and dislikes? My temperament is melancholic one, but usually, I'm the one who cheers up the people around me. So I guess I'm a very adaptable person who can get on good terms with anyone, as long as I try. A bit of an easygoing person but petty at the same time? All in all, one big contradiction. I guess Geminis all like this? At least all Geminis around me are chaos incarnations.
Um. I have a huge sweet tooth, I love manga(yes, I'm also cap obvious XD), video games, comics aaaand novels. A big foodie. Hmmmm... Oh, I also try to write and draw too! But usually, I just give up, not liking how it ended up. XD Hmmm... my style is a mix of everything? Expect I don't wear dresses and skirts. So I'm a tomboy? Hmm... but I do wear some more feminine clothes too... Oh yes, I also hate pink. My favorite colors are black and white. I listen to pretty much everything, but I can't stand country. It's just... too depressing for my ass, thanks. X) Oh, I'm also love watching cartoons, horrors, comedy, and some other genres. Uhhhh... I don't know what else to write about me...
That's it, I think? Thank you, and have a great day! Thanks for the match-ups! Oh, and I hope it's okay if I go anonymously? A bit shy, sorry! If not, please just ignore my request! Again, bye and have a good day! Stay safe!🌻 (Sorry for all the mistakes. English is not my native language! Okay, bye for real now!♡)
Matchup for Frosch!
Tumblr media
One Piece: Shanks
Food is something the two of you share and enjoy together. Whenever the two of you are out at a new city or island, the two of you rush off to go eat something, needing some sort of food in your stomachs. He loves taking you to fancy restaurants and seeing the smile on your face when seeing your food, it always makes his heart beat faster.
Shanks was never a man to care for clothing or what people wear, that was until he saw your style quickly falling in love with it. When the two of you go off to shop, he usually has you pick out his outfits, loving everything that you pick out for him.
Tumblr media
Demon Slayer: Mitsuri
Gift giving is a strong trait for Mitsuri as well. One day, she found a small box on her doorstep with a little trinket from her significant other and she immediately found something to give back as payment for the generous gift. You guys have gifting wars, always wanting to one up the other.
I can see Mitsuri having a sweet tooth and that doesn't help with yours. The two of you spend days at cafes, eating all of the delicious treats, wasting all of your guys' money on the small items. You guys always come home and get confused, unsure of where both of your guys' money went, but when the notification of the payment being sent to the cafe was found, you two instantly knew the cause of your guy's problem.
Movie dates are adorable and can be spent together during any movie, especially with Mitsuri who will go out and see any movie, all except horror movies. Before meeting you, Mitsuri hated horror movies, always getting scared of them and never getting the concept behind them. Then, you came into her life and now she goes to see the movies no longer feeling afraid or fearful with someone strong by her side.
Tumblr media
Haikyuu: Asahi
You both are definitely introverted, having all of the signs of one and that only makes your relationship stronger, knowing that the other experiences the same thing. You guys prefer having indoor dates and creating pillow forts in the living room only to watch all sorts of movies. (Another character who hates horror movies, but still refuses to watch them when your around getting to scared)
Helping people in need is a strong trait within the two of you showing the most when around your guys friends and families. You're always there for each other's events cheering them on, or when the other is in need of some help the other is there ready to be of assistance. You attend all of his games, making sure to be the loudest one there just so he can hear you and be proud of how far he has gotten.

Taglist: @inkeris
——————————————————————————
——————————————————————————
Filtered sunlight struck your eyes, awakening you from somewhat pleasant dreams, though you didn’t remember what they were about. You laid in bed for a bit, tossing and turning in an attempt to fall back asleep. Prison beds weren’t exactly comfortable. Creaking springs squeaked beneath you as a pair of monolid eyes met yours.    “Good morning, youse!” Yancy chimed, eerily cheery for six in the morning.    “Good morning…” You grumbled, pulling the blankets back over your head. “We don’t have to be awake for another hour, Yance, why did you wake me up?”    “Oh,” He replied, “just wanted to say hi.” His voice wilted a bit as he slowly slid back down to his bunk to hide his blushing face. You hummed, stuffed your face back in your pillow, and went back to bed. BEEP   BEEP   BEEP   BEEP    “Fuck!” You cussed, scared shitless by the alarm. Yancy already stood by the cell door, dressed and ready for breakfast. He turned to look at you.    “Youse alright, lo- Y/N?”    “Yeah, I’m fine. Just jumped out of my skin from that dumb alarm.”    “Haha yeah,” Yancy chuckled. “It always gets ya when ya least ‘spect it.” You rolled your eyes as the door opened and you two were escorted to breakfast. Yancy glanced at you a couple times during the walk, his cheeks growing a pinkish hue every time. You swore you could pick out faint curved lines directly below his eyes, but it was hard to tell. Entering the dining room, you and your cellmate went to go sit down. You made it a point to sit next to him. The small glass windows were open today, and you could actually see through them. The sun hit Yancy’s eyes perfectly, creating the illusion of a small almond-colored halo in his eyes.    “Y’know, your eyes are actually kinda pretty.” You complimented as heat rose to your cheeks. Yancy, however, did something you had never seen him (or anyone else, really) do before: randomly grow tattoos. Now, a series of thickly outlined cartoon hearts stood proudly on his skin. You stared, bug-eyed at the odd situation. He raised an eyebrow at you.    “What, do I got somethin’ on my face?” You chuckled and scooted closer to him. You ran a thumb over his cheekbone to make sure they were real. He smiled like an idiot and the hearts grew a bit bigger. The skin below them was as pink as cotton candy.    “I hate to, uh, ruin the moment here, but… whatcha doing, Y/N?” Yancy questioned.    “Just looking at these random magical tattoos of yours.” He hummed and let you continue investigating. Soon he moved his hand, which had previously been awkwardly dangling between you two, to wrap around your shoulders protectively. He abandoned his lunch momentarily to press a small kiss to your forehead, a quick and seemingly impulsive act. Then smaller hearts spread to his arms and legs like freckles in the summertime.  You froze. Affection? That was new. You smiled and pressed your head into his shoulder, ignoring the scowling faces that glared upon you two. Other prisoners mumbled among themselves.    “Never thought he'd get a partner…”    “I know, it’s wild.” Another remarked. Yancy blushed and looked away for a moment, before returning his gaze to your own. He gently pressed his index finger to your nose with a light, “Boop.” Although, as shocking as it was to some, they forgot about it in only a few moments. One fight later, and they couldn’t care less anymore.

My fic year in review 2022
Copying @forabeatofadrum because I like to talk about myself and this seems like a fun end-of-year reflection. If any other writers see this and want to do it, please do!
Fics I wrote:
True Colors
The Feeling's Plain to Me
In Orbit
these bodies are hoping to get addicted to sound
Miles To Go
Courting Royalty
Cohabiting
Confluence
Connecting
Peaches
Roots
Babysitting
A Matter of Distance
Texts With Benefits
The Some Kind of Summer series
A World to Rediscover
The Mattress
Naughty and Oh, So Nice
Questions and thoughts below:
Best/worst title?
I hate titling stories, so honestly I'm not totally satisfied with any of my titles. Courting Royalty is probably my most clever - it's thematically relevant, a pun, and isn't just a lyric or literary reference. The worst title is these bodies are hoping to get addicted to sound because it's SO LONG WHY DID I DO THIS?
Best/worst summary?
I'm pretty happy with the summary for Miles To Go, because I feel like it gets at the tone and plot of the story without giving too much away:
In the wake of Finn’s death, Kurt struggles to keep up with schoolwork at NYADA or engage with his life in general. He finally finds purpose again when he decides to spend the summer venturing west, to scatter Finn’s ashes in the Pacific Ocean. The road trip is long and lonely and challenging, but Kurt’s luck starts to turn around when he meets a handsome man named Blaine, who’s heading to California for his own reasons. After crossing paths in Colorado, they decide to travel together. As they get closer to the west coast they start to let down their walls, learning more about each other and revealing what they’re really seeking on this trip.
The worst summary is probably The Feeling's Plain to Me, because it's so nondescript and boring, but I feel like I can get away with it because it's a sequel:
Ficlets set in the same ‘verse as It’s Who I’m With. What did Kurt and Blaine get up to in between Christmas and St. Patrick’s Day?
Best/worst first line?
If I have to pick a best, it might be Confluence, because I feel like it packs a lot into one sentence:
Charades and fishbowl were the first-choice games to get drunk during in the Bushwick loft, but sometimes the roommates wanted a quicker avenue to intoxication - in which case they played King’s Cup.
This is kind of cheating because Courting Royalty really opens with a magazine article, but the first line of narration is probably my favorite opening:
When Rachel had told Kurt that she was secretly a European princess, he was 100% certain that it was a scam.
I don't have anything that stands out to me as "worst" - just a few pretty mediocre ones.
Best/worst last line?
I'm gonna say that the best is True Colors, because it's decently long and interesting:
But she smiled at her reflection - pink hair and ratty clothes and eyes bright with the sheen of intoxication - because she was free, and she was excited to figure out who the hell this new self was.
I think worst is probably Confluence. Not because it's particularly bad, but because I realize it's the second time this year I ended a fic with "Blaine follows Kurt out of bed for post-sex showering," and this ending line is the less interesting version of that:
“Ours,” Blaine agreed, and then pushed himself out of bed to follow his breathtaking naked fiancé to the shower.
Looking back, did you write more fics than you thought you would this year, less than you thought, or about what you predicted?
Way more! I feel like I was constantly writing this year. I did not expect to both have so many ideas and be able to deliver on so many of them.
What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted last year?
Uhhhh I mean I never expected to write a Kurt/Blaine/Sam threesome, let alone multiple fics about it, let alone spark a whole impromptu fest about it. This started as one sort of silly idea - the observation that both Kurt and Blaine had crushed on Sam and then ended up living with him - that other people took and built on, inspiring me and others to keep writing more.
Relatedly, I also didn't expect to write real actual smut, but we'll get back to that later.
What’s your favourite story this year? Not the most popular, but the one that makes you the happiest.
Ooof. I mean, I don't publish anything that I'm not proud of, and it's hard to pick my favorite child. If I had to choose one story that I'm the proudest of (saying it makes me happy is a little weird, although it does), it's probably Miles To Go. I know I've talked a lot about it elsewhere, but I think it's the most impressive work I've made this year, and there are so many scenes that I just love (the WHOLE Vegas sequence, man, I love myself for that).
Okay, NOW your most popular story.
By pretty much any metric, it's In Orbit. I'm immensely surprised and pleased that so many people enjoyed it. It meant a lot to me, and god was it fun to write.
Story most underappreciated by the universe?
This year it looks like it was True Colors, which has existed for just under a year and has 50 hits. I get it - it's a gen fic, a character study of Quinn - but I'm really proud of that story. It was one of those delightful creative exercises where I got to dive into the weird complexities of what characters might be going through emotionally, giving a little more weight and reality to the high-drama insanity that is Glee.
Story that could have been better?
I think it's Courting Royalty. I adored that prompt, and was so happy to write for it. I think it could have been a much more expansive story - there's so much to explore in the idea of surprise teenage royalty, and honestly it could have used more humor and hijinks. But I knew going in that I had to keep the scope pretty limited. I had just finished writing Miles To Go, which was 35k that I wrote in like, 2 months? I was tired, and on a deadline for the bang, so I kept it pretty succinct while still telling a complete story. I have some vague ideas for a sequel, so hopefully I can return to that world someday and expand on it.
Sexiest story?
Gotta be Confluence. It wasn't the first E-rated fic that I wrote, but it was the most like..."this is just a story about sex" fic that I wrote. I still kind of can't believe I did it.
Saddest story?
Miles To Go. It's about grief, and loss, and figuring out how to move forward from that. I'm happy with how I portrayed that, and if I did my job right I made some readers cry.
Most fun?
Maybe these bodies? It was sexy and fun, I got to throw in a little Kurtbastian to a Klaine story, and there was something very entertaining about Blaine's mix of immense guilt and immense horniness.
Story with single sweetest moment?
I don't think I write terribly treacly scenes. What comes to mind is the end of In Orbit - because the boys had been through a lot, so the epilogue was pretty damn sweet.
Hardest story to write?
Probably Naughty and Oh, So Nice. I was SO not inspired for this one. I wanted to write a Kublam Christmas fic - because, I don't know, there was something there about the warmth of the holidays mixed with the excitement of seeing old friends mixed with the dizzying possibilities of "seeing" old "friends" wink-wink-nudge-nudge. But then I was just not in a sex-writing mood but I needed to get it done by Christmas. The first draft of this was so bad, y'all. It had sentences like "and it felt amazing and then they both came." I still don't think it's as good as my other smutty fics (and I don't know how personal I wanna get in order to justify that lol), but thankfully several heroes from the Lima Bean Discord server helped me punch it up.
Easiest/most fun story to write?
Oh this is kind of how I answered the previous questions about these bodies, but I'll also say that In Orbit was a joy to write. There were some parts that were a little tougher to figure out, but overall I was just building the story ahead of me as I went, and it was a delight the whole time.
Did any stories shift your perceptions of the characters?
I really enjoyed examining both Quinn and Sam in the stories they were featured in this year - both of which I started doing a little last year, too. Writing the Some Kind of Summer stories was also a fun way to examine an alternate backstory for Sebastian. It's usually so accepted fandom-wide that he's a trust fund baby, so making it so that his stepdad was the rich/notable family member and he actually came from humbler roots was a fun avenue to explore. How does that recast Sebastian's personality and actions?
Most overdue story?
Definitely the Some Kind of Summer series. I had this image of Kurt and Sebastian being next-door neighbors and meeting on the roof outside of their bedrooms YEARS ago. Like, Glee-was-still-airing years ago. So I'm super glad that I finally got the chance to write that.
Did you take any writing risks this year? What did you learn from them?
Firstly I would just say that writing smut is a writing risk that I didn't expect to take. I think I have some old post where I say smut writers are braver than US marines and I can't imagine doing that - but, bit by bit, I worked my way up to the stuff I've written this year. It's challenging in a new way, but it's been interesting to play with and fun to bring some of my sexier ideas to life.
Secondly, I participated in collaborative fandom events, and working with an artist was a new and totally delightful experience for me. I can see how nerve-wracking that kind of collaboration could be, but I was fortunate to work with people who were great teammates and made some incredible art to go along with my stories!
Somewhat relatedly, I also became an admin for a fandom blog, and we hosted an event for the first time. We didn't get a ton of engagement, but we did get some, and I'm so grateful and astounded that anyone at all wanted to participate. I'm also really happy with the stuff that I wrote for that event. I don't know that it taught me much about writing, but running a fandom blog has definitely been a learning experience, and I hope we continue to grow and get better as we try more events.
This year’s theme and the story that demonstrates it most:
I cannot think of a cohesive theme for everything I've written this year (beyond the reality that it's all written by me and so it has my interests and experiences and hangups throughout). Honestly I'm happy with the variety, though.
What are your fic writing goals for next year?
I want to make progress on and start posting Disaster Boys (working title) (and also hopefully finish it, God I hope that doesn't take a whole year). I also have a whole list of other fic ideas I'd love to make headway on - most notably my Mediator AU, which I MUST WRITE but still have to work out so many plotting kinks before I can truly start drafting.
Overall, this was a shockingly productive and creative year. According to AO3 I published 164,797 words in 2022 (which is inflated because In Orbit was actually mostly posted in 2021). It's the first full year of fic writing I've had since getting back into fandom. I'm pleased that I still have so much that I want to work on.

-When he was around 8 his parents got a divorce and his mother was the one that ended up getting custody
-Their mom was in a pretty bad state at this point and they moved back to Puerto Rico beacause their mom needed a LOT support from her family (including financial, until she got a job)
-Their mom's family was pretty happy to not only have their daughter(/sister/niece, etc) back but to also have their grandchildren/nephews/cousins living with them as well
-Jeremy and Fritz LOVED it, living in such a big house with so many relatives seemed so much better than living in that small house with just their parents and eachother, even the community seemed better in their eyes
-Butt eventually their mom decided she was ready to get back on her feet and they moved back to America in 1985 when they were 15
-Their mom started going to nursing school, with the help of money from her relatives, and Fritz and Jeremy seemed old enough to either stay home alone or go out with no adult supervision so they frequented some weird Pizzeria/Family fun center
-Jeremy started hanging out with a young employee there named "Fritz" (Fritz Smith, I'm definitely changing his first name later)
-And Fritz started making new friends at the Pizzeria so things seemed good
-Anyways "Fritz's" shift ends and he suggests that he and Jeremy go hangout somewhere outside of the Pizzeria and Jeremy agrees
-Then when he gets home his brother isn't there and he thinks "well he's probably just spending time with his friends or something and lost track of time"
-Then later his mom gets home and asks where Fritz is, Jermey says he's not sure, his mom gets worried but he's like "don't worry he's probably with a friend"
-Next morning he isn't there and NOW Jeremy's worried, he goes downstairs and his mom's panicking as on the news it speaks of a girl named Suzanne who had been hanging out with friends at "Freddy B. Fazbear's Pizzeria" and had been reported to have not came home last night by her parents
-Ofc Ms. Santana thinks the same thing happened to her son and so she reports a similar case to the the police and other parents end up doing the same
-Months go by and nothing in particular shows up and later "Freddy B. Fazbear's" faces a few lawsuits and ends up shutting down
-Ms. Santana feels bad for continuously taking money from her relatives but with how things are she doesn't have a choice
-Jeremy decides to get a job to help his mom and ends up working as a cashier, like the good friend he is, "Fritz" drives Jeremy to work :)
-A year or so later (in 1987) "Fazbear Jr's" opens up
-And since Jemery's mom is still in nursing school and Jeremy ends up hearing about how "Fritz" is working at Fazbear Jr's cuz it has decent pay, he ends up working there despite hating the Fazbear's franchise
-I thinks nows the time to say that Jeremy's real name is Jamie and the only reason he gets called "Jeremy" at the work place is because his supervisor/manager could really care less about whether he gets his name right also I just like to think that he was the least fave employee <3 (probably got something against him beacause of the lawsuit)
-He doesn't tell his mom because she thinks she'll freak out and ends up keeping/hiding the extra money for himself
-He obviously feels bad but tries to think of a positive side like "Well in a year or so when she finally graduates and gets a nursing job, I can use the money I saved up and move out so she doesn't have to worry about anything but her job and her self"
-So anyways "Fritz" goes on about how he wants to move out of his parents' house, mostly cuz it wasn't the best environment, and so he and Jeremy end up making this plan of how they were going to move out together and get some house out of town, not to far so Jeremy can still see his mom from time to time and yeah
-They meet a new coworker named Micheal and they end up becoming friends with him for a while
-"Fritz" ends up applying for newer postition of "night guard" cause it's said to pay more, he ends up not showing up to work the next day
-As soon as Jeremy's shift ended, he went over to check up on him
-"Fritz" was basically just paraniod asf and when Jeremy tried to ask him what happend he kept on being incoherent or vague all Jeremy could understand was when he said they needed "to get as far away as possible from this town/place"
-They ended up having an argument
-The next day Jeremy went to work and on his way to the storage/back room, y'know(Bite of '87 happend)
-Jeremy gets hospitalized which leads to his mom finding out about the job and she was NOT happy about it (She wasn't like, mad at Jeremy or anything just worried and stuff)
-Ok so I'm getting like really lazy to explain but he recovers, "Fritz" finally tells him what's going on an they both get the fuck out of that town
-They did NOT graduate high school("Fritz was already kind of a drop out even before the incident and stuff)
-For college/university stuff, "Fritz" got offered the opportunity to work in exchange for college tuition and Jeremy had a tuition reimbursement plan
-Anyways they get older, graduate, get better jobs, etc.
-Him and "Fritz" do get married later on
-So now he just lives a decently normal life with his husband. Until he decides to be a beta tester for a VR new game made by the Fazbear company that is
I'm tired asf rn but watch me wake up tmr, re-read this and find a bunch of spelling and grammar mistakes

So I am currently brain rotting hard over botw specifically I am brain rotting over Revali
which is slightly a problem because nearly everyone I know whose played the game hate him!
(well thats exaggerated but)
even 2/3 of the new people in my twitch chat dont like him one in particular brought it up out of NOWHERE (maybe because the recharge line played but still)
the 3rd person said they didnt particularly enjoy him but did ask me about my theories and let me talk for ten minites about them so they get a pass
Listen have I got THEORIES im like that matpat dude
except i may be over projecting onto a character again
I am going through the dlc stuff for the first time and the game in general for the second and the chance to learn if im right or not about birdbrain has got me screaming
its gonna be like when i accidentally unaligned my desk by slamming my hands on it over quinn from potionomics
anyways i am in misery (kinda) because my favorite person to info dump on (my girlfriend) doesnt like revali and i dont wanna bother them by talking about their least favorite champion to her
even if i know i wouldnt actually be bothering her
anyways I am in deep denial about kinning that dumb bird and if my theory is right then im gonna have to cut my losses and admit defeat
but i am doing revalis dlc stuff last because you know best for last sorta thing so itll be a bit before i see if im right
speaking of best for last does anyone else sort their candy by color/flavor and the eat it worst to best? because uhhhh apparently not everyone does
