Tumblr media
Being a teenager in the apocalypse was weird. You didn't exactly get a "normal teen experience" as Maggie said when talking to her about him.
It was weird you had felt all tingly when he came up to hug you, talk to you, when your hands accidentally brushed when he was handing Judith to you, honestly everything he did gave you that weird sensation in your guts. And you did not like it one bit.
"Mags, I just don't understand what's going on. Oh my gosh, am I sick? Am I gonna die? What am I gonna do if I die? Maggie don't let me die!" You panicked grabbing her shoulders and over-dramatically shaking her. "Y/N calm down, you're not sick, or dying. You're just in love," The way she said it so dreamily made you recoil.
"I am not in love with Carl, are you crazy? Only a crazy person could be in love with him. He's weird and annoying and he snores, Maggie he snores! He also does this thing in his sleep where he talks but its not full sentences or like blabs, he just says random sentences, honestly its kind of cute. Oh my god. I'm in love with Carl, aren't I?" You cut yourself off eyes widening in realization.
"Holy shit! You're in love with Carl?" An unexpected voice laughed, popping up behind you. "Glenn! Leave her alone!" Maggie smacked his arm, "I'd suggest that you go tell him, being in the apocalypse means teen love is hard, you know back when I was a teenager-" "Thanks for the advice, Glenn." You quickly blurted out running away to avoid hearing about Glenns teen life for the hundredth time.
Tumblr media
"Carl!" You called, seeing him leaving the pig pen. "Yes?" "I don't really know how to say this 'cause I'm really scared of ruining our friendship, but I think I like you?" It wasn't supposed to come out as a question, it just had. "Like, like like me?" He asked raising an eyebrow at your giggles when he said 'like' three times in a row.
"Yeah, I like, like you. I'm honestly not really sure I've never had a crush before, I talked to Maggie and Glenn and they both told me the way I'm feeling is what having a crush is like." You shrugged looking away the giggles had been replaced by that feeling again.
"Well, I was gonna ask- Can I be honest?" He mumbled smiling a little. You nodded, frowning upon not seeing a smile or a happy reaction like you hoped. "Okay, so, I have a little bit of a crush on you too, and it's been kind of obvious to everyone for a while, but I didn't want to say anything just in case you didn't feel the same." Carl admitted, causing you to let out a breath you didn't even know you were holding, but you were still rendered speechless, not knowing the right words to say.
"So does that mean we're a couple?" He asked voice wavering in nerves, fidgeting with his fingers as if you were going to say no. "Yes! I mean, uhm, of course." You exclaimed calming down, a smile crossing both of your faces.
"Okay, good. I was worried I'd make things awkward, and you wouldn't want to be friends anymore. Do you want to go somewhere quiet, just the two of us?" Carl mentioned nodding his head slightly at Maggie and Glenn in the distance watching the both of them. "Of course, silly!" You say a giant grin on your face grabbing his hand and dragging him towards the cell block you guys are staying in.
"So, is this your first relationship?" He quizzed interlacing your fingers walking into his cell dragging you with him.
"Duh, we were in elementary school when the world went to crap!" You said smile never leaving your face, sitting on his bed dragging him next to you. "Am your first, you know," he said trailing off blush covering his cheeks. "Yes Carl, you are my first boyfriend." Your smile increasing at the foreign word.
At first, he just smiles back gazing into your eyes, then his eyebrows start to furrow as he thinks about something, "Hey, that means we can kiss now, right?" "Carl!" You squeal a crimson blush engulfing your face, shielding your face into his shoulder.
"Oh, so now you want me to do the initiating? No problem." He says brushing the loose hairs out of your face leaning down towards you, noses almost touching. You freeze eyes glued open; you don't know how to react. Your now boyfriend is about to kiss you. You can feel his breath on your face as he leans closer, then suddenly, "Carl!" you both hear a familiar voice ring out, "Carl! Im coming in," the voice now revealing himself as Rick walked in just as you two separated a blush coating both your faces. "Well looks like someone caught us," Carl points out the obvious. "I'm gonna go find Beth!" You squeak out embarrassment lacing your tone, as you squeeze by Rick.
Carl watches you leave offering a small wave and smile as a parting, turning his attention onto his dad he shakes his head as he stutters out, "Don't you know how to knock?" "I did! But clearly you didn't hear me over all your smooching." Rick protested, he hadn't knocked why would he there were no doors on the cells only curtains but you couldn't exactly knock on that but his thinking, was quickly cut short by Carl grumbles.
"This isn't any of your business Dad." "Whatever, as long as your being safe and have her consent." Rick retaliated putting his hands on his hips like a disappointed mom. "Ew dad, it was just a kiss! And I did have consent!" Carl grimaced upon hearing those words it wasn't like they were having sex not yet at least.

I love love emotionally/socially intelligent lily/Remus/regulus where they just know stuff. Like if one of their friends is hiding their true feelings,if they're lying, or just knowing something they shouldn't (secret relationships, secret feelings etc) but also
....they're teenagers I like when they're clueless, or when they connect the dots super late. Or when they accidentally hurt their friends feelings because they're still kids, they're so absorbed in their own life that sometimes they don't notice other PPLS problems . It may not happen like a lot but maybe every once in a while y'know. Because yes there are teens who are just so socially aware of what's going on (whether they should or not).
Give me Lily Evans still distraught about her sisters silence that she doesn't notice Dorcas coming to the dorms and just never leaving (aka DORLENE happens and everyone in the dorm room knows but lily)
Give me Remus tired from exams and the full moon and accidentally saying SMTHN mean to James and not realizing till a week later (when exams are done) and genuinely being confused as to why James is all pouty towards him.
Give me regulus watching rosekiller both sneaking off to the library and being gone for hours (they rarely study) and not asking or connecting the dots because he's too busy staring at James, they come clean to him a month later and it just clicks in his mind. Rosekiller don't even question why regulus hasn't found out yet because they're too busy smooching against every available surface (where they can't be seen ofc)
Like I didn't know two of my friends, in the same friend group, were dating even tho they constantly snuck off together and were much closer than a normal friendship bc I was too busy crushing on our fourth member of the friend group. And they didn't notice because they were absorbed in each other.

Hey God it's me again. Back by nobody's request once again: Me, 🦝.
Can we talk about Heizou?
Trick question. I WILL talk about Heizou and YOU WILL listen.
I like him so much the little skrunkly Mr canon daddy issues. Mr I want my father to be proud of me and it hurts. Mr I need to be the best and I'll still not be enough.
I love him a lot. I know I'm usually here to be horny but tbh today I'm not. I just feel bad for him. We all talk about Kazuha's my-best-friend-died-in-my-arms story but Heizou's is completely ignored. It's the ptsd for me. It's the family issues for me. It's the other people have a false image of the nature of his being for me. It's the hidden insecurities, the silent overthinking for me. Like bro did anyone ever pay attention to how careful he is with the traveler because he doesn't want to scare them off. It's the no friends (only mildly derogatory) for me.
It's the everything for me. My brain pointed at this little dude and went "that one" and now I think about him. All the time. I just want to hold him. Like bestie is u good? Do you need a hug? Some comfort? Some therapy? I will smooch him very lovingly mwah mwah
✿ 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙨 ✿
characters: heizou x nb!reader
warnings: angst, fluff, PTSD, reverse comfort, insecurity, heizou’s just having a very very bad day😢reader and heizou’s not in a relationship yet
notes: SAME 🦝 NONNIE! i’ve reached friendship lvl10 with heizou and i read all stories of the characters whether i like them or not and heizou’s just made me cry😭😭😭 his only friend died out in public, in his arms, saying “i… i came to see you too”. i just cosnfijdnfjsjf
also i wrote this while listening to mitski and shed good few tears here and there 🦝 anon😔👍
Tumblr media
detective shikanoin heizou of the tenryou commission is a name that’s widely known for it’s incredible intelligence, witty remarks and boy-ish charms. however that’s not all there is of heizou.
at 2 in the morning, when someone knocks on your door and wakes you up from your nice dreams, it’s safe to say that you’re ready to throw hands unless it’s an emergency. but then again almost every time you’re awoken at an unholy hours is because it’s an emergency.
‘this better be something good ‘cause i have a long day of commissions tomorrow’ throwing on a haori on top of your loose yukata, stumbling to the front door of your little house, the least person you expected to wake you up was the renowned detective of the tenryou commission.
immediately thinking of what you did that could’ve been considered law-breaking, one came into mind. but hey, you had to sock that guy because he was troubling the traveler when they were on the brink of collapsing!
“…hey, sorry to wake you up so late” heizou’s voice snapped you out of your little mind-ramble.
“oh no, it’s fine. would you like to come in?” nodding and quietly shuffling into your house, heizou seemed just so… quiet. most of the times he would spend time with you, he would be rambling about the newest case he got, how the criminals are getting dumber and dumber everyday or just about things in general.
asking him if he would like something to drink and sitting in your kitchen at 2am with the detective just silently staring at his glass of water was concerning. moreover there were dry tear tracks on his face and his clothes seemed half-heartedly thrown on.
after a while of just sitting in a deafening silence, heizou started to talk. about how he wants to be seen as the perfect reliable detective, how he wants his dad to be proud of him, about how his only childhood friend was a fraud and a thief, how after a year of staying out of contact, he met his friend again only for them to be bleeding out on the side of the road of the festival.
when recalling how his only friend had told him he wanted to see him as well, while holding a bloodied green pebble from his wallet which had no mora, only the pebble, the tears that filled his eyes fell. choking on his words, trying to apologize for dumping all of his problems on you, this was also heizou.
the same shikanoin heizou that throws around flirty remarks with you. the same shikanoin heizou that catches criminals left and right like they were just passing by him in the streets. the same shikanoin heizou who proudly declared he wanted to stop evil.
“i-i’m sorry hic i didn’t mean to dump-oomf!” being held close to your chest and telling him it was okay and that you understand was the last breaking point for him. sobbing out loudly like a child and clinging to you like a lifeline, this was also shikanoin heizou. your heizou.
after exhausting all his strength, you simply carried him to your bed for him to rest.
to heizou he felt like he was being gently cradled by the sun. so soft, warm and inviting.
to heizou, you were the only one to truly see who he was and not run away.
to heizou, you are the one he fell for and damn did he fell for the perfect person.
to heizou, your arms felt like home.

Playing Mind Games
Hey friends; it's 2:30 AM and I come to you with a new trope character list. Master Manipulative Mains. These men have orchestrated tactics and falsified scenarios to land themselves the men that they want.
This is a trope that I don't necessarily dislike because I do like these characters and the overall relationship dynamics are some of my faves. I'm not saying these characters are bad boyfriends, but the way they went about getting these boyfriends were a bit questionable.
If I was on the receiving end these mind games I would be throwing hands immediately. Anyway, enjoy this list of my fave Manipulative BL Protagonists.
Payu from Love in the Air
I love Payu, I really do, but the man preyed on Rain's ignorance of car maintenance and tampered with the boy's car because he knew Rain would turn to him for help, he was counting on it. He wanted Rain to owe him so he could take advantage of a non-existent debt he created. Like sir. You could've just asked him out, you saw the way he was ogling you at that dinner party. Then he made Rain jump through hoops to prove he was good enough for him and didn't tell him about the car tampering until after they were well established.
Tumblr media
Nubsib from Lovely Writer
Nubsib auditioned for a series his longtime crush, Gene, was the source writer for in the hopes of running into this man again. And then took advantage of his manager's friendship with that same writer and had him lie so that he could live with Gene. He tricked Gene into running lines with him so he could kiss him and had no intention of telling him that they were childhood friends. He just decided to wait until Gene found out on his own. He said he didn't want Gene to look at him like a younger brother so that's why he didn't reveal his true identity. Yea no, that's not how this works.
Tumblr media
Gao Shi De from We Best Love: No. 1 for You
In order to be a memorable presence in his long time crush's life, Shi De had taken it upon himself to become Shu Yi's sole rival from grade school through college. He one-upped his unsuspecting crush in sports, competitions, and academics. He also conned Shu Yi into being his errand boy so they could spend time together. And then when they finally got closer he convinced his cousin who just so happened to be the Uni's doctor to let him use his infirmary to set up a lock-in Halloween sleepover with Shu Yi. The manipulation Olympics Shi De put himself through was unmatched.
Tumblr media
Theo from Enchante
This man deserves an award for the manipulation tactics he went through to get Akk to confess to him first. He created a whole secret admirer to try to make Akk jealous and admit he liked him. Then he accidentally got the Uni's 4 most popular students to pretend they were his Enchante which further fueled his convoluted plan. Like he knew they weren't his admirer but he said nothing, I think it's because he could tell that Akk was jealous which was what he wanted. And then when the truth was finally revealed Akk just accepted it?? I guess he was just happy to find out Theo liked him. Couldn't be me.
Tumblr media
Kim Jun Ho from Kissable Lips
This vampire planned to use his supernatural charm to make an innocent Choi Min Hyun fall in love with him so he could drink all his blood and become human. He literally took advantage of every moment they had together to try to drink his blood. Jokes on him, his ass fell in love. SMH.
Tumblr media
Honorable mentions to Nuea from Secret Crush on You, because that man was very aware of Toh's crush on him and managed to convince Toh he was gonna teach him how to kiss but really he just wanted to smooch his little stalker because he liked him too. Not to mention that man stripped in front of Toh every chance he got, but honestly Toh was so into it that I can't even be mad.

been thinking about it lately and Ascended Astarion = Dead Dove content and I'm not sure that's really understood, even by the writers. when I finally got around to the character I decided to ascend him with, I was SUPREMELY disappointed by the conversations options following it. it seemed like the dialogue choices were trying to push the narrative on my character that they made this choice w/o considering the consequences and they are bound to regret it. the closest I could get to answering his question of "why did u let me go thru w it?" was "I wanted u to be powerful".
but with that character? my accept Bhaal durge? that isn't the reasoning. at all. (related: "what do u want as a reward?" "ur body" was the closest answer my character could give. otherwise I'd've answered "murder :))")
for context, this run was born of a conversation w my friend discussing supposed content no one had seen bc "no one's that evil". we thought, what's more evil than killing literally every npc? I failed the conceit of the challenge immediately bc I can't handle senseless animal cruelty in my games. killing children? fine (u need a mod to do this in BG3, but I am thankfully plenty delighted to use mods), killing a neutral animal npc? no can do.
so I started this durge (they are the only character that can come close to "killing" Gale with that first interaction) run with the intention of killing everyone except Shadowheart (only a cleric of Shar can truly kill Aylin) and Astarion (bc I need to smooch him). (and there is a mod for playing an origin character as durge, which would have meant playing as Shadowheart, but I MUST smooch Astarion and I don't tend to do het or female romances, unless I'm forced to (*sighs dreamily* oh, Garrus Vakarian). I'm just not interested in that set of equipment in that way, so may as well just make a durge dude.) somehow something went wonky and Halsin ended up joining us and I was so perplexed I just allowed him to stay. (he's meant to attack if u destroy the grove but free him anyway, but instead he just showed up that night and went straight into his Moonrise spiel. is it bc the wolf Silver never aggro'd me and thus survived???) so I fixed the Shadow Curse all while killing every single humanoid and hostile animal in acts 1 & 2. including Thaniel, which makes Halsin's talks later in act 3 of getting news from Thaniel and the Grove hysterical. idk what I did but I sure as hell broke this poor man.
(on a related note, Halsin will give out to u when u accept Bhaal, but will still give u the "u have exceeding my expectations, also we should bang" in the same conversation. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DID BUT IT'S DARKLY FUNNY.)
in the conversation when Astarion is expressing surprise that u let him go thru w it, my durge is just like, yes my motivation is that I like to kill ppl :))). it's not a sex thing for him (that is separate from the murder!), but he's still fine w the outcome. yes, Astarion looks down on him, but that's fine! he's allowed to be wrong about that, durge doesn't care. so long as Astarion lets him kill ppl he genuinely just does not give a shit.
(I actually had the idea that if Halsin were to ever rediscover his morals and tried to leave he'd ask Astarion to turn him so Halsin would not have a choice. as I said, this durge *does not fucking care*.)
this is probably the only character I will play that would let Astarion ascend bc I enjoy dead dove SOMETIMES, but not always or in large doses, but I get so few dialogue options that convey that in an rp sense! I don't think the writers/devs REALLY took that into consideration, sometimes. like, yeah, there are going to be ppl making fucked up choices but surely no one would go THIS far! for THIS reason! honey, u need to look up the Dead Dove tag on AO3, there are absolutely ppl making choices for those fucked up reasons.
(and I understand the whole "this confirms to Astarion about sex yadda yadda". even if that's not Tav/Durge motivation, that's how ASTARION would *interpret* it.)
(oh yes, and also, don't let Orin abduct Yenna. it doesn't matter whether u find out in camp or the sewers, Grub will not survive. I was devastated. if I'd known, I would have made sure Halsin was available for her, but she won't abduct a party member or someone ur romancing.)
long story short, I want to play a durge that even ascended Astarion finds unsettling. that's the dream.
Hello there, duck!
Your run sounds delightfully evil! I wish I could play one of those, haha, but I'm too soft hearted. My one evil run with my durge Salira was ended before even entering the grove because I felt horrible after getting rid of Gales hand! Seriously, I can barely take killing the squirrel as durge, and I always save Alfira because I feel horrendous otherwise!
(Fun fact, on all five runs I've done Yenna just vanished at some point and grubs was left standing in my camp, which was like...eh?)
And yes, Halsin is always somewhat of an issue, isn't he? He's just running around, causing mayhem in peoples games because he seems slightly bugged out, haha. I had one run, where he wouldn't go to the spot where we save Thaniel because he joined the fight against Marcus at Last Light and somehow got stuck, for some reason. Same run, none of his vocals would play, which was also very interesting. Everybody would make noise when they climbed or got hurt but Halsin was always silent and just there! And in another run the dude really straight up hated me - he was so mean and snappy, I swear to god he wanted my Durge dead - and then he suddenly went: "Hey you're super cool and strong and I just want to gently fuck you beneath the moonlight if you'll let me" and I was like: Say what.
Regarding the dead Dove: I've talked to people of Discord before, and some of them mentioned something similar a couple of times, but personally, I do think the writers actually knew what they were doing here!
Of course, I do agree that it relies heavily on the regret notion and that it somewhat shoehorns you into a certain narrative corner, I noticed that too when I was ascending him for research - I hated doing that, but all for the asks, haha - but I thought it was really fitting for what it is!
The bad ending, that is. I know we all somewhat forget that because of how people view him as a character, but ascension is the bad ending. Even on an evil run, where your character may have considered all options, it is very likely that Tav hasn't accounted for one very important part of being a true vampire.
The obsession.
It's still somewhat mild in the game, though definitely there, but it will only get stronger as time goes on, and it will probably get to the point that the only escape is death. Either his or Tav's. So, in the end, ascension will come with an armload of regret and the writers were making sure we know that.
And, on top of that, even if we let him ascend in a pursuit for power - or in in your durge's special case: murder :) - we still cast spawn Astarion aside because he doesn't fit our needs, thus making it very clear to him that who he is isn't enough and his behaviour is the price we now pay.
It's pretty much the same with all the other companions as well - justiciar Shadowheart and ascended Lae'zel, for example. However, it doesn't bother us as much, because we have different expectations towards ascended Astarion than, for example, dark justiciar Shadowheart. We don't expect a positive narrative here, a narrative where becoming shady-shar's loyal subject isn't an objectively dumb decision to make, so we don't mind the dead dove as much. It's exactly what we've been expecting - and Aylin even warned us how Shadowheart would change upon becoming a dark justiciar - so yepp. This went exactly how we thought it would and this is what we wanted.
Astarion, however, is a somewhat special case, because his bad ending is, by far, the one that gets the most romanticised. He's so heavily romanticised by so many, that the bad parts nearly start to fade, even with those who don't like the ascended ending. It becomes just 'the other ending', if you will.
And yet, it's still the bad ending.
Ascension is the bad ending for a character that we've somewhat given up on. That we misunderstood so deeply, mayhaps, that we traded his entire being for power and, quite frankly, beauty. We showed him that he isn't enough, we let the boy run and hide the only way he knew how and now we're faced with the consequences and yes, it's really dead dove but...what did we expect?

for the character ask game! dick grayson: 5, 16, 25
5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them? Lmao please don't ask me this question, because I have zero musical taste--and I don't mean I have bad musical taste, I mean I have no taste whatsoever, I barely listen to music, and I have no funny suggestions! (Mostly because I don't care for most of the ~jokes~ about his physical body.) 16. What's your least favorite ship for this character? Fandom has made it extremely hard to like a lot of other Dick ships because literally half the fandom can't stop tearing down Dick/Babs to build up their ship, which means there's nothing there for me to like, all it does is make me think there's not much there, if the only content to come up with is ranting about another ship. Nobody's obligated to like Dick/Babs, nobody's even obligated to not rant about it, I know where my scroll button is, but also all it does is push me further away from the ship that was supposedly being sold in that post, because it seems like an unfun place to be. But my actual least favorite ship for Dick is probably Bruce/Dick because it's so close to what I want out of that relationship, except also a thousand miles away from it! Honestly, one of my oldest friends is a Bruce/Dick shipper and the overlap we have of views on the characters is probably like 85%, we just diverge on how that plays out and we both feel extremely strongly about how we dislike the other path, but that we respect the other person being on it. We both are really into the fucked up entanglement of the characters, the mirroring aspect they have of each other, the belief that the other is the pure version of who they're meant to be, the frustration of how much they love the other while also being mad at them for the distance between them, the co-dependent disaster relationship, etc. All of that is the same for both of us, we just diverge on the context for it. Which is fine in our friendship, we meet in the middle, but there have been times when I feel like the ship would be so delicious for me, because it would tunnel vision in on those aspects I like, but the thought of them so much as even smooching makes me look like I bit into a lemon. How dare fandom almost give me what I want and then take it away from me!!!! Like, I don't actually care that it exists as a ship, fiction is not in a 1:1 relationship with reality and I think a lot of us get blinded by how modern comics go hard on the father & son aspect, which I am into and think is fair to evolve them into, but that wasn't always true and it's not like Bruce/Dick came out of nowhere. It just denies me personally what I want and therefore it it is The Worst For Me Personally And Thus Jail For DC Fandom For One Thousand Years!!!! 25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now? Dick Grayson is my longest running Blorbo, like that guy invented Blorboism for me, before I ever had such a name for the concept. Dick Grayson has been my One True Character for 20+ years, nobody has ever unseated him, not Anakin, not Obi-Wan, not Thor, not Usagi, not Duo, not Tezuka, NONE OF THEM that I've lost my mind about. Dick Grayson came on the scene for me when I first watched B:TAS and hit my tiny little baby brain with his daddy issues on display and excellent Nightwing design in later episodes and the push-and-pull relationship with Babs and my fannish life has never been the same since. "That it. That's him. That's the one. That's the character I'm going to obsess over for the rest of my life." I must have said when I first saw him and I HAVE NOT BEEN PROVEN WRONG YET.

So, i was about to make a post about it myself, but i decided to ask you instead: How will Andy's final death look like?
Given that Undead Unluck is described by a narration box as a story about MC's quest for "the greatest death ever, not once, not twice, but it was now chosen to be the final line of every epiosde of the anime... I think this might genuinly be the entire driving force behind the story. That Tozuka really does want to write the greatest death scene ever, and Undead Unluck is the result of that desire.
Now, the question is: How will this happen? Fuuko yeeting her boyfriend at the Sun during final ragnarok? Andy growing old with Fuuko and dying of old age, surrounded by friends and family? SEX SCENE???? (probably not, but the possibilty of that is very funny to me)
Im pondering this question, becuase on one hand i want AnFuu to live happily ever after as they deserve it. On the other, im sucker for tearjerking scenes, and Andy having a grand epic death would emotionally draining, and i love when stories do that to me...
And, lastly, theres my personal elephant in the room... I kinda want Gina to smooch Fuuko. Now,for the record, i love Fuuko's romance with Andy, and i am NOT the type of shipper who wants the rival ship to be killed off for "getting in the way of OTP" - like, cmon, ITS ANFUU, THE BEST CANON SHIP IN A BATTLE MANGA EVER!
I didnt really ship Fuuko/Gina (or Andy/Fuuko/Gina for that matter) until the loop 101. At that point, i somewhat became a "Andy x Fuuko x Gina OT3 truther", but that was mostly just a joke, i had no true hopesfor it... and then FUCKING POLYAMORY was offically introduced into the story! Something that you see even less in fiction then same-sex reletionships... Like, holy shit, i dont think anything's off the table anymore.
But unfortuently, that poses a dilemna: like one of your reblogs said, idk if AnFuu would be down with going poly, but i also dont want Gina to be shipped with Sean just for the sake of pairing her off with a guy...
So, once again, let me repeat this question: What happens to Andy at the end of the story? How does he die? and how does Gina fit into all of this?
(sorry for the long ask, i hope i didnt sound like a crazy shipper at the end lol)
I'm fairly confident that Andy's death is going to be a shockingly quiet affair given how much buildup it has on the basis that the idea of him finding the "greatest" death is no longer predicated on him trying to kill himself, but achieving a sense of fulfillment
He doesn't want to die for the sake of dying anymore, he wants to die knowing that he lived a good life and left something meaningful behind. Ever since we got to see the shape of Andy's soul, I've believed wholeheartedly that Andy's death will be surrounded by the smiling and tearful faces of everyone he loves and who loves him back
It's not the flashiest death, but it is the best death that I think anyone who enjoys their life can ask for

after you posted that pandoras actor post i cant stop thinking about supreme being!reader who seems very quiet and collected, and they get asked like "what… do you see in pandoras actor????" and they just go full Jessica Rabbit mode and say "He makes me laugh." (this isnt a request unless you want it to be, this is just a random idea i liked btw) I imagine having someone like Pandora's Actor could refreshing ???????? because everything else that happens with Ainz is too intense. Sometimes you need some cringe in your life. Its good for your soul. Maybe smooch it even.
Tumblr media
I still have PTSD from my Creepypasta phase, Hetalia phase, and my edgy/emo/"depressed" phase all together. Every single day I think about it, I curl up in cringe and wish I never remember it in my life.
BUT ANYWAYS
Y E S
I personally see (and hope that everyone sees) that PA is honestly a refresher, because honestly, he seems more... human like than anybody else ironically. He doesn't necessary follows orders without any questions, as he is willing to question orders if needed - but also like, EMBARRASS AINZ BECAUSE HE WAS BUILT LIKE THAT, DESPITE BEING MONSTERS.
I also see that PA is like... an embarrassing remainder of Ainz's more human side. Despite all the exterior of being the wise, powerful, monstrous, all knowing being, it's nice to being smooch by humanity a bit. Just to take a break from the position he's in forcefully. Away from Albedo, away from Shalltear, away from Demiurge, away from everybody that sees him differently. He just want to be known as Momonga, not Ainz Ooal Gown.
10/10 recommend 2 hours under PA's bubble to feel human again with a smooch and a constant reminder of your cringey moments.
I'm also going to flesh this idea out more, sorry this came out shitty qwq
Tumblr media
"U-uhm, pr-pretty lady?"
"Hm?"
The date was unknown during the time when that child asked... everything was fuzzy when you tried to remember that memory. All you remember was the warmth it gave you when you remembered that child. The warmth of feeling human again...
That child was playing with your hair, no, attaching flowers in your hair when they asked. You were surprised when that child didn't fear you when the two of you met. You were an arachne, half spider half human, and still no fear were sensed. That child intrigued you heavily to the point where it became a daily thing to visit them... during the day? No... Night time... It was night time you always come visit. They... They lived in a village where the population wasn't that much, but big enough where... large farms... existed.
"Why do you feel happy when you talk.... P-pandora A-actor?" Your lower body's fangs clicked quietly, almost as it was a laugh when you were questioned about that. A pure soul...
"Well, he makes me laugh... Of course, he also reminds me too much of my... old... friends..." You dabbled on. "He makes me feel like a human. Honestly a breather from my duties as a supreme leader, despite cringing on my friend's creation." The concept of time would seem to not exist when you dabbled on about him while the child would play with your hair.
"One day..." You chattered on, "One day you will get the chance to see him..." The hands on your hair seems to ghost on you once you snap back to reality.
The grass tumbles and tussles against the cold night air. You couldn't see how dark or light the night is due to your blindness, but on instinct you could tell it was dark. You clicked softly, frowning at your own hopefulness. You were alone where a village once known to exist where gone, yet still here you are still at the same spot where the two of you met. In your hands was a messily drawn image of him, though it was slightly crumpled through your reminisce.
"I promised you that you would see him one day..." You said quietly. The grass continued to tussle and tumble in the wind, almost like a quiet melody to hide the silence in the village. "... I'm sorry if the drawing is bad because of my distraction, I can redraw it again when I come visit you one day..."
The pile of stones with many small gifts seems to beg to differ though...

THIS.
Rebecca's facial expression change as she reads that nonsense. These two holding hands. This is MY silver lining in this. I miss Rebecca and Keeley spending more time together.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love them your honor.
Tumblr media
This is so awkward. :') I can't help but to wish Roy x Jamie x Keeley all together.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Not gonna lie, this was one of my first questions bc I'm curious, but I didn't think Roy would go there. Couldn't imagine that happening, even, bc I probably think better of him? At the same point, I can see him being jealous like that & can't imagine Jamie, of all people, asking that question now 'cause he definitely knows better. Would be ironic if he actually goes there, too, and Keeley answers. It's weird, and awkward, and I'm glad we get to see their personalities through this.
Keeley's soft, "That's okay" with an "Unbelievable" undertone is known to so many women, I think. This is so important.
Tumblr media
What? You fucked up? :')
Tumblr media
I keep wondering, what model and year is this car? It's such a huge change from Jamie's Aston Martin.
Tumblr media
Keeley is THE best girl. The bestest.
Tumblr media
"It's all shit, Ted." ROY X JAMIE X KEELEY WHEEEENNNNNN
Tumblr media
They're really cute, and I'm still very much on the fence, but I wish they could stay together. :( Jack doesn't seem EVIL evil, you know? maybe she just needs to learn, idk.
Tumblr media
THEY'RE SO CUTE. Ugh, Ted is the ultimate dad tbh. I'm 28 & even I kinda envy having a dad like this. If only he could pull himself together. :( At the same time he's poking that topic with Henry very gently, so I don't think there's any hard with that. Idk. Those things are complicated.
Tumblr media
You know who's excited to be around you and looks at you like you're their entire world, Ted? That's Trent. He's right there, within the reach of your hand.
Tumblr media
You definitely should have had. There is sooo much learning for Jack to do. You know who mostly learned their lesson? Jamie. :) My feelings are all over the place.
Tumblr media
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Beard smooching Ted WHEN???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Of course he does, what did you expect? :DDD His fav player is Jamie fucking Tartt. Also, Beard smiling like THAT.
I honestly love the idea of Beard and Ted living together, but at the same time the idea of Beard getting up early in the morning to stop by at Ted's and cook breakfast for him and Henry? Are you kidding me? Fucking goals. I want what they have.
Tumblr media
RESPECT!!!!!! Beard is the real one.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Henry is his dad's son. Can he just move in with Ted, please? I wouldn't mind that kid growing up around the team, Jamie constantly interacting with him. Beard taking Ted and Henry out for fun activities. That kid would grow up an AWESOME person.
Tumblr media
I'm sorry, friend? I thought you were open about this? Gosh, there is so much wrong with their relationship. Do they communicate at ALL? It's like i'm on a swing: on the ship, off the ship. Can you two finally establish what's going on between you? Are you showing off your girlfriend or what? Like, listen, queer people shouldn't come out every time, especially if they're not comfortable with people around them. At the same time, I'm confused. She didn't even address this interaction after while Keeley obviously felt awkward and insecure about this. That's not good.
Tumblr media
This is what Nate should have sent. I'm so fucking done with Rupert, when will Nate leave him and go back to Ted?

lol anon back (same anon that listed why Rami is amazing)! I got more 🙃
He’s our clumsy king and owns it
He fell at the Oscars, fell/pushed off a side railing, did parkour only to fall when he started running on the ground (it was a Mr. Robot blooper), fell backwards in a fucking chair, and tripped during the Red Carpet at the Met Gala. This man literally trips over air and himself but we still love him ❤️
Spending time with Emma who is non-binary
Literally does make a difference because it helps non-binary people feel like they’re noticed!
Puts so much thought and consideration i to his characters and roles!
Just think about all he had to do for “The Pacific”, “Mr. Robot”, and “Bohemian Rhapsody”! Definitely lots of dedication and hard work and passion for his roles, like wow. 
Rami’s hair
Never gets old and I love his curly hair era! Also wavy hair too! Wonderful hair lol
He has great expectations for his roles
In an interview, Rami was asked if he was happy about “Night at the Museum” casting a pharaoh correctly. Rami’s reaction literally said, “that shouldn’t be something to be super overly happy about, it should just be casted correctly”. Good expectations honestly. 
Rami was the side character for so damn long and steals every scene he’s in
Rami is literally amazing in all scenes he does and even if he’s not the main character, all eyes are on him (at least mine are 😌)
He’s one of the best versatile actors I think I’ll ever witness!
This man has literally played: a gay teenager who was crushing on his best friend
traumatized war veteran who has a thick Cajun accent
an iconic and memorable lead band singer
Alcatraz prisoner who plays the violin
ancient mummy pharaoh that comes to life at night
hacker with d.i.d and ptsd
a doctor named Adam Terry
random dude in Battle Ship
a vampire with a cool scarf
a mountain man and in real life Rami gets the chance to squabble in a tiny boat with his identical twin lmao (best sibling fight we’ll ever witness, @the-real-ramimalekpeen have you used this scene for Twin Tuesday yet?)
a 6’0 tall guy in a video game who was said to most likely have schizophrenia
a dude with a beard
a weirdo guy in the literal fucking show “BoJack Horseman”
and like so many other characters I’m choosing not to describe
Already said he was a “bad boy” and pranks people but he’s literally really funny 
Have you seen him in different interviews? Such a charmer and pretty funny as well.
Like the interview with Charlie Hunnam where there was a question about Rami’s eye color and he and Charlie were teasing each other and trying to find out Rami’s eye color. Then some pictures are also pretty funny.
Also the “DoLittle” game with Robert Downey Jr (Rami’s whole outfit and appearance during the Ellen Show with Robert Downey Jr 😩👌 literally here for his outfit, freaking immaculate lmao)
“wE sHot LiVe aiD oN dAy onE” 
That’ll be in my head forever, thanks Rami
“A playful smooch”
I don’t think I’ll recover from the shocked looks on everybody’s faces when Rami exposed how he had a kiss with Daniel Craig. 
His fans are wonderful 
This man has the best real fans. Which includes the fan artists, fanfic writers, and people who just appreciate him and/or his films! also people who stand up for him which is YOU Flipper and RamiPeen 👏
Photo shoots
How can you look at his photo shoots and NOT smile??? Precious but also sexy man. 
Again he has a literal soft spot for children
That one time where I’m pretty sure he read a book to a few children
Best hugs
He seriously gives the sweetest and warmest hugs. Like can I get a hug?? 🫂 
Oppenheimer moments
I don’t care what anyone says about his role in Oppenheimer. He had literally eight minutes of screen time yet still went for the fucking jugular and was successful. 
The bulge
He has no shame and no, I won’t expand on this except… @the-real-ramimalekpeen 😉
Doesn’t give a fuck about haters
Lmao y’all hated Rami in Amsterdam and thought his character was stupid? Well he probably doesn’t give a shit (or is obliviously living his best life) lmao. 
Ages like fine wine 
God he looks like he’s in his fucking thirties in so many pictures. Raise your hand if you ever looked at a picture of him and thought, “oh a picture when he was in his twenties!” and it turns out the picture was taken in his fucking 40s… a few days ago… Unproblematic people age perfectly. 
His smile makes me smile
Could he be any cuter??? His smile literally is so wonderful.  
Most caring thing you’ll see all day and is husband material
When he was giving Emma his jacket, comforting the woman (friend) who was crying and thanking the waitress, and so many other events 🥺
Okay anyways got even more than this lol… sorry for rambling on about our Rami. I’m just so happy I finally get the chance to share my Rami findings and thoughts I’ve collected over the years.
I love your love for him!

asking this to my fav dndads artists, do you ship any of the teens, if so whom with?
Sorry i took a little while to think about this
hmmmm
this is actually a really hard question because i haven’t really thought about it-
okay i’m gonna go teen by teen 🫡
Taylor— honestly, swiftli. I feel like link is the one taylor gets along best with, so it’s kinda hard for me to see taylor with anyone but link.— BUT ALSO the idea of gothweeb is adorable and i find it kinda funny. they kinda bully each other but it’s fun because i love them. gothweeb is probably my #2 taylor ship. —i feel like taylor and hero was funny but it would’ve never worked out, and it didn’t, and i thought it was really funny. so like, i didn’t really ship it, but i thought they were hilarious.
Link— this is when i reveal my biggest secret… i love gothcleats. i like gothcleats a lot more than i like swiftli. gothcleat moments are more serious and carry more meaning, swiftli if mainly just funny homoeroticism and i love it. i honestly don’t know how to explain why i like gothcleats so much i just do. they hold a special place in my heart. —swiftli is my second favorite. LIKE AHHHHHHHH!!! PIZZA, PISS, HOMOEROTICISM!!!! ALL THE BEST THINGS!!! once again, their relationship is mostly just them being dorky little dweebs and i love them for it. — I LOVE KICKWORTHY… but that’s mostly because it’s basically just me and my best friend and i thought it was funny. i love the joker, my best friend loves garfield, instant win.but in all seriousness, i don’t really have a big opinion on them. i feel like since link didn’t like him at all until after apollo four teens, they dont have a wholesome enough relationship. i know that link has warmed up to herm a lot since then and i find them cute, its just that. — oakicks- i love oakicks and i think that if they polished up their friendship that would be wonderful. norm tries so hard to make everything good for everyone, especially link and herm, but it never works for him. so like, if link had tried a little harder to be nice and include him earlier in the season, it coulda worked.
Norm— ah norm… poor sweet norm… ANYWAY!! Oakworthy. i love oakworthy. it’s so dimmed but i also think it’s so cool and i just think it should be 100% canon. i mean, normal has been manifesting it since the dance, so like, cmon. I feel like herm doesn’t actually like scary as much as he says he does. like it’s just part of the bit. if herm breaks character, the first thing he better do is give norm a smooch. that’s all im saying. i will choose to believe that hermie actually likes normal and is just playing a part rn. he has to crack. he just has to. Norm deserves to get what he wants for just once, and this is all he wants. please anthony, let will have his moment. — Coin Toss, do they actually have a ship name? cause if not i just came up with one. Anyway- scary and norm. i love them. they are so same narrative opposite direction and i love them for it. i see them as platonic but like, feel free to give the homies a kiss ig. but yeah i mostly see them as platonic and scary needs to accept that norm is her new best friend. deal. — i already laid out my reasons why oakicks doesn’t work. i love them but like 😔. —oakweeb just does not work. it never will. taylor bullies norm way too much.
Scary — uhhh- Gothcleats, Gothkicks, wtv. i already laid out my reasons in links section. but like, link and scary could help each other out so much. both of their lives would be (i don’t wanna say so much, but) better. anyway- scary just needs to accept that she can be loved. — gothweeb, i already laid out my thoughts in taylor’s section. i like that and i think they would be cute, but like, not established enough. so i see them as platonic. — already stated my case for coin toss, platonic and i love them. I will explain the whole scary and hermie thing in the herm section- cause i need to write down stuff for herm… — scerica. yes. i love them. let the girls be girls. i ship it, like extremely, but also- they only interacted once in canon. they are my teen, female, nark basically. yes.
Herm- THE SCENE PARTNERS- SCARY AND HERM ARE JUST SCENE PARTNERS TO HERM- I FEEL LIKE HERMIE AND SCARY ARE REALLY GOOD FRIENDS AND THEY SHOULD HAVE GIRLSNIGHT WITH MARGARITA AND ERICA- HERM REFERRED TO SCARY AS A SCENE PARTNER THATS ALL IM SAYING — oakworthy. yes. if hermie can get over himself and accept that scary is nothing but a friend and a scene partner, it would work. please. i am begging. — already stated my place on kickworthy — swiftworthy is illegal.
your welcome-
i rambled- a lot.

Oh for the fic meme - Tim finding out about Lucy’s parents and how they feel about her career and the things they’ve said to her about it.
Pretty sure I know who this anon from oh god OVER A YEAR AGO is, but just this once, I won’t name names.  Instead, I will merely dedicate it to the lovely @goodgirlssayiloveyoutoo as a congratulations.
title: want your heart beating on me, don’t leave me hot and lonely, read it on AO3 here
rating: mmm...  let’s say a hard teen?  (that’s a pg-13 for anyone who remembers movie ratings)
warnings: none apply!  this is a canon divergence, my friends.
a/n: This was an anon prompt from last year 😭 but I did finally write something for it, sweet anon!  (I know who it was...  I think.)  It also fills my @chenfordsource bingo square of Lopez/Evers wedding venue.  The title of the fic is from James Bay's Peer Pressure.  
Oh, also, if anyone is curious, I have discussed it with a friend and decided how the finale happening like this could have shifted everything a hop, skip, and a jump over in S4 while still maintaining the same character beats and plots.
P.S.  I tried so hard to add a series of gifs but both the gif search on here and my laptop are junk so it didn’t work out.  Please think of the following relevant moments: the exchange between Nova and Officer Bradford when she gets pulled over, Tim giving Lucy that filthy once-over, and Lucy and Tim discussing Nova being thirsty, and Tim telling Lucy to save him a dance.  Thank you.
------------
It’s nearing the end of the night, only the closest of family and friends remain, when they finally get their dance. 
"May I cut in?"  It's phrased as a question but both Jackson and Lucy know it's not.  They're officially P2s, he's not her superior anymore so it's not an order, and they're off duty anyway.  Jackson makes eye contact and lifts a brow, lips pursed in such a way that Lucy knows they'll be talking about this later.  She does her best to control the blush she's sure is blooming on cheeks as she squeezes Jackson's arm and nods, dark waves brushing his jaw as he plants a quick smooch on her temple.
"Have fun, don't do anything I wouldn't do!"
"Jackson!"  Lucy can't help the scandalized gasp of his name that slips past her lips.  Lucy considers herself a fairly adventurous spirit and Jackson puts her to shame.  She catches Tim's interested look as Jackson walks away cackling and hides her face against Tim’s shoulder as steps forward to take her hand in his, the other one landing low on her back. It doesn’t feel like a dance between colleagues as she takes in his woodsy cologne, feels the bite of his callused hand through the thin fabric of her dress, with the pinprick twinkle of the stars and strung lights alike, and the sharp warmth of her still-fading blush on her cheeks. 
“Is there anything that Jackson wouldn’t do?”
Tim’s question startles her into looking up and the words tumble out without meaning to.  
“With you?  Nothing.”  Her eyes clamp shut as she feels Tim’s body shake against hers as he laughs at her unexpectedly candid comment.
“Lucy?  Lucy.”  He repeats her name and it’s the most she’s ever heard him say her name.  She likes how it sounds on his lips.  She finally opens her eyes again and finds herself unable to tear her gaze away from the intense blue of his.  “At least we know Jackson has quality taste.”
“He does.”  She smooths her hand down his lapel before settling it on his shoulder once more.  “Don’t mind me, I haven’t really slept since the UC op.”  She hopes the excuse doesn’t sound quite as weak to Tim’s ears as it does to her own but given the steady way he watches her, she doesn’t think she’s successful.
“I heard Jackson say something about your parents.”  The shift in topics makes Lucy ache, just a bit.
“Have you-did you meet my parents?”  She knows he’ll understand she’s asking about when she was abducted and she waits for his short nod before she continues.  “They don’t really like me being a cop.  They… They think the system is too corrupt, too oppressive, for any good to come of it.”  She feels the way his hand tightens on hers, the way he presses her just a little closer.  “My dad didn’t show up for my graduation dinner and my mom, well.  It went badly.  Jackson yelled at her afterward.  We haven’t talked since.”
“Lucy…”  His voice is a low murmur into her hair and it feels more like they’re hugging than dancing at this point, but it’s been days, maybe weeks, since Lucy has felt this comfortable and safe so she’s not going to be the one to point it out.  He pulls back just a little so he can find her eyes with his.  “I’m not going to lie and say the system isn’t fucked up.  I think we both know it is.  But cops like you and Jackson are how it’s going to get better.  Hopefully, it’s cops like me that can help you do that.”  She knows she’s going to tear up if she doesn’t break the emotion of the moment.  Tim’s ability to throw her for a loop when she least expects it will never stop surprising her.  She knows Tim can read everything on her face but she’s not trying to hide it.  She blinks quickly to hold back any tears, then she blows out a breath and takes a look around.
“Guess we made it to the party together after all, Officer Bradford.”  He glances around the room, takes in the other couples dancing, the waning crowd at the bar, the lingering guests scattered at tables, and smiles that half-smile that makes Lucy flush with pride every time she pulls it out of him..
“We did.  Are we still going to have a lot of fun together or was that an empty promise?”  The question sounds innocent on the face of it but the wave of anticipation that curls in her gut suggests she is not interested in innocent.  The way he looks at her, eyes dark, a smirk curling his lips, suggests innocent is not where his mind is either.
“Now who’s being thirsty?”  She doesn’t wait for an answer.  “For the record, I don’t make promises I won’t keep.”  She runs a finger around his bowtie.  “We’d probably have to ditch the fancy clothes.”  She flutters her lashes doing her best to exude a guileless sincerity.
“I can think of a few places we can leave them.  That chair in my hotel room, the floor.”  The pout her red lips form isn’t faked.
“Maybe ditched is the wrong word.  I would like to see you in this,” she plucks at his suit jacket, “again sometime which means you take it off carefully enough to maintain it.”  She bites her lip and toys with his lapel again.  “But I promise that taking everything off slowly will be worth your while.”  She thinks of the skimpy black lace underwear she has on, worn in an effort to ground her back in being Lucy, in making her feel sexy and present, and she’s pleased someone else will get to see it tonight.
She’s going home with Tim Bradford and there’s precious little that could make her feel more like herself than that.  He clears his throat, the slightly glazed look in his eyes clearing.
“Let’s get out of here?”  She nods almost frantically.  She’s finally doing something that Jackson wouldn’t do because he’s definitely not going to fuck his T.O. in as many filthy ways as he’ll allow before the sun comes up.  “My room?”  They’ve all rented rooms nearby and Tamara is, thankfully, squared away in the family suite that Patrice rented, but Lucy’s room adjoins Jackson’s and that’s not something she’s going to put him through so she nods again.
They walk out of there as calmly as they can, Lucy swiping her clutch from the table she left it at, waving casually at a bridesmaid she recognizes as she goes.  They don’t touch in the cab beyond the press of their legs and Lucy is afraid that once she starts, she won’t be able to stop.  She’s not wrong.  They make it to the elevator before he’s kissing her and she’s pressed against the long, lean length of his body and god, does it feel good.
--------------
Later, when they’re lying in bed, sweat cooling on their overheated skin, she’s not sure what’s going to happen tomorrow or the next day after that, but they still have two hours to sunrise and Lucy has learned to make every second count.  She lets the sheet pool at her hips as she sits up and straddles Tim’s waist.
“Night’s not over yet, Officer.”

Pairings: Lee Felix x fem oc
genre: fluff, non-idol AU
Warnings: none really, this is just an introductory chapter.
Word count: 5.1 k
(not proof read!)
Note: Hi, i have yet again started a new AU that i’m not entirely sure i’ll finish, but i have more time on my hands so i thought i’d give it a shot.
Enjoy x
The sound of the alarm cutting through her music, alerting her that there are 10 minutes left till class starts. Luna turns off her alarm and gathers her sketch, book and picks up her bag, she stuffs everything in and slips her phone into her pocket. She swipes her finger over her headphones, turning off the noise cancelling mode, paranoid of not hearing her surroundings as she walks through the halls.
As she gets up and dusts her pants off in case any loose grass stuck from the garden, and is on her way to the commonary division of the campus for her core lecture. Being in her second year and still taking core subjects and not just major focused ones irritate her but at least they’re all relatively easy so they’re no bother when it comes to grades.
As she walks through the doors of the building, breezy wind and gentle sun rays no longer on her, she is instantly in a more glum mode. Luna is a nature oriented girl, the lack of sun and clear skies accompanied with wind that smells of lingering early morning gardening that she has to suffer 2 hours at a time for every lecture makes her moody, her resting face seeming intimidating and unapproachable is not good company. She has friends, plenty of in fact, however they all have at some point mentioned how had they not been paired up or been a part of the same groups they would have never been friends because they were all weary of her.
Nonetheless, she puts in no effort to change it. She makes a quick stop at the girls bathroom, washing her hands and reclipping her hair up before making her way to class. English literature. Ironic, since her major had nothing to do with it, in hindsight. But still it was a core class to most majors at Hankuk. As she reaches the massive lecture room, she sits at the front, not because she’s an ace student, which she actually is, but she can’t focus if she sits in the back. She also had bad vision and doesn’t use her glasses often, even though she always has them. 
Luna pulls out her phone to check the time, 10:55, even though she took her sweet time getting to class, walking so slow she irritated some of the students who were in more of a rush than her, she still had 5 more minutes left. She pulls out her black frame glasses and uses them to push her hair out of her face, resting at the top of her head, because lord knows they were made to be used as a headband and not vision enhancement. Instead she squits, because she’s a striver. She pulls out her notebook, flips to the English literature section, pulls out her pen and leans back in her seat, waiting.
In walks mingi and eunbi, two of her friends since the first year, when they spot her they both smile and wave excitedly at her, which she returns. As they go to walk past her up the stairs, eunbi gives luna a quick smooch on the cheek, to which she scrunches her nose and giggles at. The two have been inseparable since they’ve become friends, going as far as jumping through hoops to be roommates this year. 
Before the two go to sit at the back row, so mingi can sleep and eunbi can take notes whilst occasionally bothering mingi as he sleeps, she tugs luna’s sleeve lightly, making her look up at her with raised brows in question. “Wanna go get coffee after class?” she asks with a shake of her shoulders, luna smirks and nudges her in agreement. “Can i come?” mingi asks leaning his bigger frame on eubi as he gives soft puppy eyes to luna whilst glancing down at eunbi.
“No,”
“Sure,”
 The pair look at each other, “no?” luna asks looking at eunbi questioningly, “oh sorry i think i picked up your habit,” she fakes shock as she looks at luna who rolls her eyes, “very funny,” she retorts pushing the pair away to go to their seats, and they do, giggling on their way up the stairs. 
In a few seconds time, the professor walks in, making everyone scurry to their seats and all the commotion to die down. The two hours pass by agonisingly slow, the course isn’t necessarily difficult, but it is very boring in some chapters, so much so that sometimes, even though the professor is highly terrifying, some students accidentally fall asleep and snore too loudly, which usually earns them a good scolding but a good laugh from the rest of the class. 
After a 2 hour long torture of occassional note taking, luna staring down the proffessor on accident when she zones out but doesn’t want to seem like she sin’t focusing, and stealing glances at her phone on the table every time eunbi texts the dozzing off emojie to the groupchat till she put her phone on do not disturb, the class was over. Luna, and other students,  slowly picking up their things whilst others rush to get to their next lecture. As she slings her black one shoulder bag on whilst getting out of her seat, she almost bumps into someone, he stops taking a step back. “Oh I’m sorry, are you okay?” he asks extending a hand to her. 
Luna nods with a tigh lipped smile, mentally drained from the class. “I’m good, don’t worry about.” she waves off, for a brief moment his eyes widen as she speaks but then he smiles nodding, bangs falling in his face but he pushes them back behind his ear. “Okay good,” he smiles standing awkwardly with luna slowly furrowing her eyebrows in confusion, ‘should i apologize too’ she wonders to herself, but before she could he points to the door, “i have class. Bye” he smiles politely and she returns in before he’s dashing out of the class.
“Who was that?” eunbi asks as her and mingi make their way down the stairs to luna, she shrugs “don’t know, we almost bumped into each other so he was just apologising.”
“That’s hyunjin.” mingi points out, nodding his head in the direction of the door where said hyunjin had just left through, both girls look at him for further information.
“Hyunjin who?”
“Your crush?”
“Childhood best friend?”
“Roommate?”
“Group member?”
“Why are your replies always so vague?” eunbi asks after their fit, luna nods i agreement, scowl on her face. “You didn’t ask how i know him.” he states as the three make their way out of the class. “Mingi, there are certain things that instinctively just, follow, you don’t need to be asked.” luna argues, leading the three of them to the closest door in order to get some sun and get away from the suffocating halls. 
“Not everything is instinctive luna.” 
“Not everyone has the patience and tolerance to ask the simplist things. Mingi.” she retorts back nudging him. He rolls his eyes, and luna catches it but before he could catch her wide eyes and mouth, eunbi cuts in “a new cafe opened up 10 minutes from here, let’s go.” she grabs both of their hands as she drags them to the campus gates. The three walk in, mostly, comfortable silence. With the occasional dread of their next class, except luna, who was done for the day. 
“How come your schedule is so good?!” eunbi angrily stomps making luna laugh at her childish antics. “I told you to wake up early on registration day, you missed the good slots.” she links her arm with a grumpy eunbi. “You’re such a virgo.” luna rolls her eyes at the comment, “stop with the zodiac signs, it’s just discipline.” she defends herself but Eunbi still grumbles ‘virgo’ under her breath but she doesn’t bother reply.
Once they reach the cafe eunbi was talking about all three of them have forgotten whatever conversation they were in the middle of as they entered, it was beyond beautiful. The cafe had different shades of brown and beige for furniture, there was another story on top with limited seats situated right in front of the window. The walls were covered in books that seemed to be accessible to customers, the cashier and pick up stall were white marble with a beautiful pastry display in the middle that caught luna’s eye. “Shut up.” she rushes to it, mingi hot on her trails.
Her eyes almost glimmer as she looks at all the displayed sweets. Chocolate strawberry muffin, brownie cookies, coffee cake, vanilla raspberry, tiramisu cake, they seemed endless. And all seem freshly made. Luna has a sweet tooth, a very severe sweet tooth, the wakes up in the middle of the night and craves something sweet type of sweet tooth. And ever since she was young desserts have always been a favourite of hers, and even as the years go by, they still will be. 
“Hello,” the sweet girl behind the counter smiles warmly at luna and mingi who were bent over the display. As she tries to stand up she bumps into mingi, nudging him to get off her as she bows politely returning the greeting to the lady. 
“What do you guys want? It’s on me.” eunbi says from in front of the cashier, luna shakes her head pulling her card holder from her bag as she approaches her, “absolutely not, you paid last time.” she nudges her and stands in front of the cashier with an offended eunbi stuck to her back. “This is our first time here, let me pay i told you about the place.” the lady stands behind the cashier with a smile on her face as she watches luna take her card out and extend it to her just as eunbi grabs the back of her pants to pull her back but luna takes her hand and wraps it around her waist, having eunbi’s chest pressed against her back, chin on luna’s shoulder as she pouts. 
“You’re annoying.” she mumbles in luna’s ear as the cashier takes the card smiling at them, “i feel well taken care of,” mingi says patting luna’s head as she swats his hand away. “Iced latte with almond milk please.” luna orders first “we’ll both have an iced americano please.” eunbi orders for her and mingi. 
“What cake do you want?” luna asks mingi, knowing he probably has his eyes on one but may be shy to ask since she’s paying. He hesitates at first but hums looking back at the display, “i’m stuck between tiramisu and vanilla raspberry.” 
“Let’s get both and try them out together,” luna suggests and mingi nods happily. “One tiramisu and one raspberry cake please.” the cashier nods and rings them up. “Here you go, hope you enjoy.” the cashier hands luna her card and receipt to which she politely thanks her for and the 3 of them turn to find a table. 
“Let’s sit up there,” eunbi points at the second story where the tables were against the large glass window that overlooked a beautiful view of the city. Mingi and luna followed her as she walked towards the stairs, “oh, you guys go, i’ll get the order.” mingi says turning back to the pick up area, not waiting for a reply. The two girls go to get a table, “this place will look gorgeous at night.” luna points out as the two set their bags  down and pull out the chairs next to each other. “Yeah, we could come study here when the dorm gets stuffy.” eunbi suggests and luna nods back eagerly, “i was just thinking that, it would be really nice, we could ask about their working hours before we leave.” she takes the hair clip out letting her hair down, ruffling it a little. 
Mingi comes back with their orders, luna and eunbi helping set the tray down because mingi seemed to be struggling with balancing the drinks. After taking her first sip of her coffee luna passes it to the other two to taste it, since they always mock her for not being able to handle black coffee  since she can’t have regular milk, but they both seemed to like it. “Let’s try the cakes.” luna nudges mingi who excitedly bounces in his seat with her, she unwraps one of the forks and hands it to mingi who happily takes it and digs into the vanilla raspberry cake in front of him. He hums in satisfaction as he leans on the table, luna smiles and pokes into her slice, as soon as she tastes it she leans back in her seat grunting lowly at how the desserts melts in her mouth, “it’s so good,” she says and mingi hums back.
“Here try mine,” she takes a piece and holds the fork up to his mouth, he tries it and instantly melts into his seat like luna. “Good right?” she asks him excitedly and he nods. “It’s so good!” he squeals making her laugh. “Here,” he breaks out of his haze and gets a piece of his cake to have luna try. She places her hand over her mouth as she hums happily, “so soft.” she says holding eye contact with a very enthusiastic mingi. “Do you want to try?” luna asks turning to a very smiley eunbi. “ you guys are so cute when you’re eating something you like.” she points out looking at the pair fondly.
“Try mine,” luna holds up the fork to a refusing eunbi, “no, i’m good.”
“She won’t eat it till she’s on her period.” mingi retorts making eunbi stick her tongue out at him. “Try it so you know to crave it when you’re on your period.” luna argues, making her give in. she takes the piece offered to her, she eats silently then simply nods. “It’s good.” she finally says after she swallows.
Luna turns to mingi with a distasteful look on her face “her reactions are so underwhelming.” she says taking a sip of her coffee, “i’m just not a big fan of desserts like you two,” eunbi defends herself to the pair, “that’s fine, i’m talking about your reaction.” luna retorts taking another bite.
The three of them sat together, talking and finishing up their drinks till both mingi and eunbi had to leave for class. “When do you finish today?” luna asks her roommate as they pack up, “four.” eunbi pouts whilst picking up her bag.
“Want me to pick you up?” luna offers grabbing the tray on her way down the stairs. “No it’s okay i’ll walk, you also have work.”
“I have work at 6, i could pick you up then we could have dinner before i go.” luna suggests placing the tray at the pick up spot and thanks the lovely lady behind the counter. “Yeah sure, are you gonna walk back to campus with us?” eunbi asks as they leave the cafe. “Yeah, my motorcycle is there.” 
“Okay miss racer.” mingi nudges her but she rolls her eyes, “i’m not a racer,” 
“Then why do you have a motorcycle?”
“It’s faster, also gas is cheaper.” luna defends as they begin their 10 minute walk, knowing they’ll bicker the whole way there. “Stop lying. You’re doing it for the chicks.” he points at her as she feign guilt and murmurs a sarcastic shit under her breath making the other two laugh. 
Upon reaching university campus, the three part, each going their separate ways. Luna makes her way to the stall where her motorcycle is parked, once on and her helmet is on, she rears out and is on her way to her shared apartment. Luna and eunbi managed to get an apartment that’s a good 15 minute walk from campus. By motorcycle, it’s a 6 minute drive. Thankfully both of the girls are well off financially to be able to afford an apartment this close to campus. Both girls work alongside university to support themselves. Neither of them is rich, they do get help with tuition from their parents. But they also pay a good amount of it and pay for all their personal living expenses. They don’t live luxuriously, but they live very well.
Once at the apartment complex, luna parks her motorcycle in her designated spot, takes off her helmet and pulls out her door card. Thankfully they were able to land an apartment in a well secured building where you can’t get in without either being a resident or being personally let in by a resident. They live on the 5th floor, which is why the elevator is very convenient when it’s grocery shopping day.   
When in front of her apartment, luna takes a quick look around the hall before entering the security code to their apartment. Once inside with the door locking behind her, she takes off her shoes, hangs up her bag in the closet next to the door with their last minute jackets they share. She hears the tiny patter coming closer, looking behind her from the closet she sees her little cavalier pattering towards her. She smiles big, bending dow to pick up her dog. “Hey coco,” she coos at the puppy, well 3 year old puppy i guess, scratching her head as she struts in, past the hall and into the living room where she plops down on the couch. She leans back into the couch, dog in her lap as she mindlessly pats and scratches her.  
The apartment is comforting, it’s very simple and very warm. They both had a hand in decorating and managing the general spaces, and since they signed a one year lease and will renew it again for two years, they put in a lot of effort and care. When you enter the apartment you are in the only hallway in the apartment, the first door on your right is eunbi’s room, the one after on the left is luna, and the third door on the right is the bathroom. The walls of the hallway are a light beige, much like the floor tiles. 
when you pass the hallway, to your right is the kitchen, with cool toned light grey marble and light beige cupboards. The table, placed at the far end of the kitchen space, is white, with twi white chairs, a white bench on the other side and two beige chairs on either had of the table. 
The living room, facing the kitchen is very warm and simple. Since the two girls really valued the space, since the apartment isn’t too big and they don’t like to feel cluttered, they only have one big couch stretched across one wall, the big floor to ceiling sliding glass doors that lead out to the balcony that lets in a lot of natural sunlight, a very important deciding factor for picking this apartment. A big white massage chair, excited impulse purchase upon signing the apartment lease, placed right in front of the window. On the wall facing the couch is a big flat screen that the girls only use on the weekend when they have enough time to binge a show. 
The relationship the two girls have, may seem unusual to some. Even they would find it weird if they met someone who took such a big decision only 3 months after meeting someone. But within meeting each other, luna and eunbi became friends fairly quickly, they found comfort in each other and have grown a bond that was so strong that it even scared them a little. 
Granted the girls aren’t perfect, they’ve had arguments, brutal ones, but also ones you would have with a sibling that cares about you very much. These arguments were never spared by jealousy, anger, resentment, or even a simple disagreement. 
Like the one time eunbi was so concerned over luna’s wellbeing during the last semester when she was spending endless nights with no sleep, overworking herself, taking on extra work to send her parents money for when her little sister needed urgent surgery, barely eating to the point that she was hospitalized. It upset eunbi that she wasn’t taking care of herself and was putting herself in such danger, seeing her in that state worried her a lot. But what really pissed her was when luna snapped at her one time, telling her mind her business and that she was fine. That was their first fight. 
When their apartment still had nothing but a couch, some kitchen necessities, and the two were sleeping on the same mattress in the living room. Eunbi had spent the night in her empty room, sleeping on the floor covered in only her jacket because she left the covers for luna. However, she woke up in the living room, on the mattress, covered in their shared fluffy blanket with a plate of food on the floor covered in syran wrap with a note that read ‘i made us breakfast but you didn’t wake up,’ and that made eunbi happy. Us. meaning she ate. 
One thing the two always did after their rare fights was talk. Always. And that is what ensures that they never fight over the same thing twice. 
After a few minutes of patting head and tail wagging, luna gets up to see what she could fix up for dinner. After checking the fridge and freezer, she decides on a quick and simple sushi bake. They had both salmon and shrimp, left over rice, and a half full pack of nori. And since they were due for a good grocery run in 2 days, they needed to empty out as much as they could so nothing goes bad. 
By the time it hit 3:30 and her alarm went off, she gave coco a quick snack, pulled out her outfit for work and laid it on the bed for when she needs to go, readjusted her hair and touched up her eyeliner, she then set up the plates on the table and covered them so they won’t go cold in those few minutes. 
“Ohhh working hours.” she reminded herself, realising she hadn’t asked the the cashier lady about their working hours, which may seem unimportant, but since luna studies early in the morning most of the time and needs to find a cafe that opens before 8, she deemed it important. It was on her way to and from university so it wasn’t too much of a hassle to pass by.
With a kiss to her dog’s head, she slips her feet into her shoes and grabs her keys, and is out the door. If it weren’t for korean law, luna wouldn’t wear her helmet, it almost takes the fun away from riding a motorcycle. You can’t feel the wind in your hair, on your face. Granted it keeps you from squinting all the time, but that’s about it. Sure safety is important too, but the wind. 
The drive to the cafe turns out to be a 5 minute ride, meaning it’ll take 3 minutes to get to university. As she shuts off her motorcycle and her phone in her pocket dings with a text message.
Eunbi: 10 minutes.
Good enough time.
Helmet in hand, luna pushes the door to the cafe open, upon entering she notices there are more people than in the morning, but it’s still not crowded.
She walks up to the cashier and waits behind the guy ordering in front of her. As he was done, takes his receipt and moves aside, luna notices him as the guy she almost bumped into after class. He notices her too, smiling and pointing at her “it’s you!” he exclaims at her. She raises her brows smiling, “it’s you too.” she returns and he giggles, pushing his hair back with a smile. “Welcome back.” the lady at the cashier welcomes luna, making her step forward and lean over the counter, “hello, i’m not here to order i just wanted to ask when you guys open?” 
“Oh, we open 7 and close 10 on weekdays and open 9 and close 11 on weekends” the kind lady answers, luna nods and thanks her. When she turns to leave the line she notices hyunjin still standing. 
“I’m hyunjin, i feel like since we bumped into each other twice it’s only proper i introduce myself.” he reaches his hand out for her to shake, and she does.
“Oh mingi told us, i’m luna.”
“He remembers me? Didn’t expect it we only met once. We have a mutual friend, changbin.” hyunjin explains pointing at a table where 3 other boys were seated, they were all looking over to where he was talking to luna. One had light brown hair and had on a pair of black rimmed glasses, he was wearing a a grey oversized sweatshirt. Another boy had strawberry blonde hair, he had on a stripped red and black sweatshirt. The third was slightly buffer then the other 2, he had dark brown hair and was wearing a white plain shirt, with a grey sweater or jacket over his shoulders, luna recognized him. They weren’t close enough for her to be able to see them properly but enough to be able to make out their silhouettes somewhat clearly.  
 Upon making eye contact, changbin smiled and waved at luna which she returned. 
“Oh i know changbin, or not his name at least but i saw him a few times with mingi, we also shared a class last semester.” luna notes as she turns back to hyunjin. 
“oh , are you foreign by the way? I’m just asking because of your name.” it might seem like an inappropriate thing to ask, especially since they’ve barely been acquainted with one another, but within the 2 years she’s lived in korea, she’s used to people being blunt, especially so with foreigners.
“Iced americano.” the lady at the counter calls, urging hyunjin to pick up his drink and a straw.
“Oh that’s a very wild guess, what could have possibly urged it?” luna jokes making hyunjin giggle a very adorable giggle where he covers his mouth with the hand holding the straw.  
He punches the straw into the drink and holds it out to luna. She looks at the drink before letting out a chuckle and shaking her head, “no thank you.”
“I’m from Cuba actually.” she finally answers making his eyebrows shoot up into his hair line, “oh, i’ve never met anyone from Cuba.” he states back, interested.
“Yeah me neither.” luna deadpans making hyunjin let out this shocked sound, “i’m joking.”
 “i’ve lived in canada most of my life,” she explains, his mouth shapes a ‘o’ and he nods. He notices the helmet in her hand and points to it, “do you ride?” hyunjin asks excitedly looking from the helmet to luna few times.
“I do,” she replies with a smile holding it up. “I do have to go pick my friend up though.”
“yeah , sure.” he takes a step back allowing her room to move, “it was nice talking to you hyunjin.” she says finally as she waves and walks past him but not before he returns the smile and waves “likewise.” 
When outside luna notices that the sun is beginning to set, giving the sky a very beautiful view with splashes of orange and darkening shades of blue as the night approaches. 
She puts her helmet on and gets on her bike, she takes the quick trip to university, stopping right at the door where students have already began filing out. She leans over, pulling her visor up and pulling out her phone.
4:01
She’s exactly on time, so there’s no need rushing eunbi. She scrolls on her phone for a bit, motorcycle still running as she waits for her roommate.
She feels a pair of hands on her waist making her turn her head to look behind her. “Hey, girlfriend.” eunbi greets excitedly as she gets behind luna with her arms around her waist. Luna chuckles, taking off her helmet. 
“Put this on.” she hands it to eunbi who gladly takes it. “You’re using me as an excuse to not wear it.” she secures it over her head before clicking the safety in place.
“Yeah, and I still haven’t found another one that’s worth the money.”
“You’re really buying another helmet for me?” eunbi asks, voice laced with excitement and fluster. Luna simply nods, “hold on tight.” 
“I took a picture of you, can i post it?” eunbi asks showing her the picture she took just seconds ago of luna on her phone leaning on her bike. 
“Sure.” is the last thing she tells eunbi before taking off to go home.
After eating, eunbi doing the dishes whilst luna changes for her tutoring session and filling up coco’s food and water bowls, luna is stood in front of the mirror at the door adjusting her white button up into her jeans. 
“Seeing you in these clothes is still so weird to me.” eunbi says from the other end of the hallway, watching as luna pulled her long hair into a low bun. “I’m an actress. I must play the part.” luna replies, pulling front pieces out, not liking how sleek her oily hair looked in the bun. She’s due for a shower as soon as she’s back. “Don’t go pulling a parasite.”
“If i do at least you’ll know where to find me.” luna checks her teeth one final time before turning to eunbi.
“Can i borrow your bus card?” she nods, “isn’t today thursday though? Why are you going to jihoon?” eunbi asks going into her room, coming back a few seconds later, bus card in hand. She knows luna only takes the bus when she’s going to jihoon’s house for a lesson since she doesn’t want to show up on a bike.
“He has a test next week, he asked for the extra lessons.” 
She holds up the card eunbi just gave her “Thanks. Bye honey i’m off to make us some money.” luna bids her friend, in a very high pitched tone making eunbi laugh loudly, scaring poor coco who stood at her feet watching luna put her shoes on.
“Don’t wait up for me if i’m late, you have an 8am.” luna says, standing in the doorway of their apartment, with an accusing finger pointed at eunbi.
She grumbles and stomps, “you do too though,” she defends knowing very well luna is an early riser no matter how much sleep she gets, even if it’s an hour.
“Bye.” luna blows her one last kiss before closing the door. 
i’ll post the next part once this reaches 20 likes/reblogs <3

Babyyyy 😍 I'm about to dig into your masterlist. Which story would you recommend me (or any other fellow newcomer) to start with? 🥰 I know they're all gonna be beautiful, but I just wanted to ask and also say hi and send you a smooch! 💚Hope you're having a great day!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
INEEEESSSS 😍😍😍 my day was great, and even became so much better since you're here. but oh no... when your crush asks you a simple question and you blush and stutter and have no idea how to answer... that's how I feel right now!! mmmmhhmm I don't knowwww, I'll probably overthink and still regret the one I recommend. I guess it's better to give you a quick overview so you can make your own choice based on your mood:
HOW DO I MAKE YOU LOVE ME explores the struggles of having a crush on neteyam and is actually the very first fic I've written for this fandom (first posted on ao3) so it has a sentimental significance for me and I'd suggest starting with that one (however it has 10k words so it's veeery long) 
JUST NETEYAM is a readers' favorite and includes olo'eyktan neteyam with the arranged marriage trope based on the bridgerton spin-off queen charlotte (this one has 8k words, a bit shorter but still very long; part two is in the works)
if you'd like a quick read that's both funny and fluffy, and want to know more about the ups and downs of being friends with your crush's younger brother then SLEEPLESS might be something for you
my other works such as BIG EYES, BIG LIES deal with heavy topics, bullying and its aftermath in this case, and thus might not be suitable for all audiences; same with HOTTER THAN SIN which is basically neteyam smut with a minimum of plot lol 
bby, I can't believe you're interested in my writing, it's such an honor, sooo many smooches back to you, and I'm very curious which one you're going to pick 💕ilyyyy <3333
