#especially after it rained

[butch-bakugo]

Why cant I find any perfumes that actually smell like roses (or really any other flower) other than Bulgarian rose perfume?

Like roses have a distinct softly sweet flower smell that is light, airy and even abit earthy but every "rose" or "flower" scented perfume I find just smells like sickly sweet candy 😭

Imagine with me, if you will

Fox, at the end of a hundred hour shift, finally being able to step out of the main building. A few paces out and he finally registers the rain. When he does, the light, little patters of the small drops on his armour grow. Now the drops are large, and battering, thundering down on him. But unlike the majority of people, he doesn't think to get under cover, or even thank his stars that he's in armour, thus not getting wet. No. Instead he removes his helmet, clipping it to his side, and begins the slow walk back to the barracks. When he arrives he's drenched. Thorn meets him outside and tries to rush him in, but Fox won't move. He just stands in the rain for a couple more minutes. It hurts. The rain. It's hurting him. But once the water makes contact it gently rolls down his face, leaving behind a cool feeling. Not cold. Cool. It's remorseful, the rain is. It apologises for the stings and the pain. It leaves Fox feeling better. Finally he follows Thorn inside.

Nick's moments of panic under the umbrella in Heartstopper S1E4 before Charlie kisses him really get me. So I wrote a thing in second person to try to appreciate the weight of the emotions that I imagine Nick is experiencing.

------------------------

You’re into this boy. So into him. He’s been in your thoughts. . . a lot. You've been talking all the time, you keep wanting to see him, and whenever you do, it’s never enough. You can’t help but smile when you think of him, let alone when you see him.

You want this boy. Romantically. You don’t really know what that looks like, but you know it’s true.

And, it seems, he wants you, too.

Your first kiss was good. Really good. All those tingles and flutters and sparks that you felt from just being close to him were amplified into so much more. It was so much better than you could’ve ever imagined.

And then you panicked. You screwed it up. You ran. You went back, but it was too late. You need him to know that you don’t regret it, that you wanted it, that you want him, that you were (are) just freaking out.

You try to be calm, you try to keep your cool. (No need to embarrass yourself in front of your crush.) Plus things are a little weird, restrained, and understandably so. He's probably really hurt. You need to get this out, you need to explain. You can do it.

And then he begins apologising. It quickly becomes clear that he has this all wrong. That he’s wildly misunderstood, rewritten what has happened. You were there because you wanted to be, because you chose to be. Yes, you were scared — are scared — but he has this all twisted.

Charlie.

Charlie!

Charlie.

He's not getting it. So you kiss him.

You make sure he knows what’s going to happen, and even if he seems very confused, he responds readily enough. You attempt to pour all of your feelings into him, to get across all of your regret and sorrow for hurting him as well as (maybe especially) how much you do want this. And for a moment, he loses himself in the kiss. You understand, you do too. Kissing him is just as good as you remember.

And, well, it’s too late for being cool now. You just kissed all your emotions into him, practically begging him to understand; you’d best explain what those emotions are in the hopes that he properly will. (Besides, this isn’t just “your crush”, this is Charlie.) You can’t leave him standing there so lost and confused. You may be confused, but he deserves to know that that confusion isn't about him.

So you start to explain…and then it all comes out. You’re vulnerable in a way you can’t remember being before. There’s no one in your life you can talk to like this, especially not about this. And it’s really been messing with you. Because not only has this boy's presence in your life already begun to upend everything, but you're so much happier because of it. And what are you supposed to do with that? What even would your life be if it were entirely different? Do you even want it to be different? . . .Maybe. But it’s scary. But you want him. And you want you.

So you tell him this, more or less. Really, you cry into his chest. Is this too much? Is he overwhelmed? So much for keeping it cool, keeping your cool. But you need this. He seems okay, he seems to get it. The friendship you’ve built is there, it can handle difficult things — it already has. He seems to want to be there for you. So you let him, and he lets you, and things are hard but they’re better in this moment. You’re finally seen and understood, and maybe Charlie now understands why you ran away, that it wasn’t about him, about the two of you.

. . .But now what?

You want him, but being with him will indeed upend every single facet of your life if other people know. You’re not ready for that, you can’t face that yet. It's too much. Everything is still so new and confusing. You don’t want to ask, but you want to be with him and you don’t see any other way to do that right now except to…keep this a secret? He finishes the thought for you. "Yeah," you concede, unhappily, but owning that that’s where you’re at.

He agrees, he tries to reassure you; you’re not completely convinced, but you want to believe him, so you let yourself.

And there's that question again: Now what?

There have been a lot of emotions and things are a little weird, even if a lot better, and you want to say something, or to touch him, but this is new and you’re meant to be leaving and…best to just go. The awkwardness will fade eventually. You’ll figure out how to be in this new dynamic. For now, you’re wanting, but you don’t know how to do anything more than that (would he want you to?). So you smile at him through the awkwardness and start to walk home.

. . .

. . .

What. Just. Happened.

This is good, but awkward, but good, and he wants this too, right? You’re together now, right? You’re really getting to be with him, with this boy you want so much, with Charlie. This is happening?

And then you hear it: Charlie calling out to you. Feet slapping on wet pavement.

“Nick!”

You stop, startled, confused, off-balance. What’s happening? He’s smiling, but.. What could possibly be worth running out into the rain in his pyjamas for? Has he changed his mind already? Does he not want this? Is keeping it a secret too much?

The doubts and fear are filling your mind, but you try to rein it in, to not let it show, to not let him see.

And then he looks back at you. And you know, in an instant, that everything that you wanted for your goodbye, he wanted, too.

Right? Please let you be understanding this correctly. You look at his lips, once, twice — you can’t help it. You’re desperately hoping that you’re on the same page, but barely daring to believe it.

And then he kisses you.

And the world stops.

.

.

.

.

And this is it. This is right.

Charlie.

This boy just ran out in the rain to kiss you. He’s soaking wet, he must be freezing, and here he is, kissing you. That’s the only reason he came out after you. To kiss you.

He smiles — that amazing smile of his that lights up your whole world — and then he runs off again.

There’s no more room for thoughts, only feelings. Massive feelings that well up inside you. So much sentiment that it feels like your heart is bursting.

You thought you were off-balance before? Well now you’re practically drunk.

What have you gotten yourself into?

Maybe the best thing ever.

Wonder if OG E-Soul & Yang Cheng are going to parallel/foil Firm Man and Wolf Girl in a heartwarming way, or in a painful way

Listen, while I still lowkey want Logan Lerman to make an appearance in the pjo show I, jokingly, was on the Paul Blofis train, but now, what if he played the og Perseus from the myths? Walk with me, the show already opened up with Percy standing before the statue of his namesake, something that's important to the narrative (both book and show) because he was one of the few heroes who was happy. What if, during some scene where Percy is possibly pushed to his limits OR just finished a battle and came out as a hero he bumps into this random, but otherworldly, man who, in passing, gives him some advice or whatever. Percy ask who he is, only to find out the man he's named after is standing right in front of him---hold on!

(And then we see a glimpse or even get a scene with Andromeda---who is depicted as a black woman like she should be---and Annabeth, like Rick, the opportunity is there!)

Imaging Dew as one of those lizards that shoots blood from his eyes when he’s scared

Imaging he agrees to watch this paranormal horror movie with Rain and like halfway through Rain feels him jump a little. Teasingly asks him if he’s scared because Dew loves horror movies (slashers not paranormal)

And Dew turns to him with blood dripping down his face with the most serious expression ever like “No what could have possibly given you that idea??”

Sky's shirttttttttt

I can make it even better:

That is a trendy company, hard to find.

Sky only really will spend money on himself to buy anime.

It is a Korean company.

There are mentions of Rain's family traveling to Korea with work, Rain has gone on trips.

It genuinely is very plausible that Rain bought that for Sky.

Red-winged blackbirds tend to prefer wetter areas than where I live but 👁️✨

You know this is a safe space. So since Aizawa is in the public eye again thanks to Vigilantes… I don’t know how much of a Aizawa fan I am. I think it stems from me having some strict teachers that there constructive criticism was Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr too harsh for what we were doing. I know he has a lot of lovely moments, but idk maybe if he got humbled himself by the students or the other characters. I mean this does feel like a Bakugo situation like “He lost and eye, foot, half of his quirk what more do you want?” Well as we see in the future he doesn’t… change and is still like that so unlike Bakugo he doesn’t have the development moment. It is nice seeing him be a mentor still, but… no foot, not eye, quirk is pretty much gone maybe just humble yourself a little Mr. Aizawa. Idk maybe I’m too sensitive, I don’t hate Aizawa I’m just weird.

u are totally well within ur right to this opinion!

i'm just genuinely curious — what made u send Me this ask. Me, the guy who has rarely ever talked about aizawa. Me, who is almost hilariously Not the aizawa guy

16 and a half hours later and i have finished the watcher. what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck.

[rainibao]

I was drawing with the kids at work, and I started trying to doodle Vein with red marker(yea sorry I'm down bad).

Suddenly, one of them asked me, "Is that Elsa?"

I cackled a little then answered with "Well...kinda."

Then she proceeded to draw her own rendition of a princess for me and we left it at that

[punk-o-ween]

watching criminal minds again (after forgetting sbt it HELP) and damn im on ep 4 and when i tell you i relate to spencer reid sm im gonna explode

[stripedchickens]

An update! I saw ‘Hollow Mind’ and man was I not okay- I didn’t cry surprisingly but man what an episode :(

Belos is absolutely horrible and Hunter my poor sweet boy. You can tell he’s older than Luz but even then by his mannerisms, his voice and actions you can tell that he’s still just a kid.

Seeing Luz try and be there for him was so sweet, and her realization about Belos poor child.
