@14daysdalovers day 1: Hart
*shuffles in 9 days late with a Dutch Bros*
I have absolutely 100% not been in a good headspace for actually quite a long time but I guess I’ll come out of my hole for these two 😂 this is probably the only piece I’ll end up doing for this years event but we’ll see.
Happy 14 Days guys!!! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all that I’ve seen! Keep up the fantastic work!
(Referenced the art “la Belle Dame sans Merci” cause I have not had a single original thought in my head 🤣)

Objection! (Eddie x reader smut) 18+ only!
Tumblr media
Author's note and content warnings:
2.6k words of silly smut. minors DNI!
I thought that a meet cute between a court stenographer and defendant would be fun. Please keep in mind that I know nothing about the judicial system and my only point of references are Better Call Saul and Legally Blonde. (I also found out that the dancing inflatable tubeman wasn't invented until the mid-late 90s. Please forgive me for my ignorance.)
Fem!reader along with use of she/her pronouns. No use of Y/N, just honey, ma'am and sweetheart. Mechanic!Eddie (it isn't touched on much in the story but that is his job in this world) slightly sub!Eddie, vigilante!Eddie, Eddie has a little bit of a stocking fetish, Eddie is a thigh man in this fic, mentions of drugs, oral sex (f receiving) unprotected piv sex (don't do that IRL) strangers to lovers.
Credit to @firefly-graphics for the divider ❄️ not tagging anyone since this isn't my usual fluff 💗
Tumblr media
It's a gray, snowy morning as you step off the city bus and walk to Hawkins courthouse. You check your watch as you enter the building. The first case of the day is at 8am and you've got 45 minutes to get your coffee and set up your station.
Most days are pretty much the same with your work. Scribing every word spoken during a case, then later editing and finalizing the transcript. Every once in a while you speak when you need someone to repeat themselves or when you are called upon to read a portion of the transcripts. Other than those instances, your job is to turn off your brain and type as fast and accurately as you possibly can. It can be a monotonous, boring job but it works for you.
You hang up your coat, grab a paper cup of coffee and sit at your station as you wait for the first case of the day.
The prosecutor enters, you see it's Leonard Mitchell. He's one of the older DAs and he has a reputation for being stubborn and irritable.
Next to enter the room is the defendant accompanied by his attorney. The defendant is wearing a slightly wrinkled white button-up shirt, black jeans, and boots, and his long brown curls are tied back into a bun. He whispers something to his lawyer as they take a seat.
The defense attorney looks vaguely familiar to you, but you can't place his name. He's in his mid-forties and has the cadence of an overworked and under-resourced public defender.
The bailiff enters the room and announces,
"ALL RISE"
All of you rise as the judge enters the room.
"Court is now in session. The honorable Judge Steward is presiding."
Judge Steward is one of your favorites. She's mastered the art of being patient yet firm and she's always been kind to you. You're scheduled to work beside her all day today.
"Good morning, everyone. Calling the case of the State of Indiana versus Edward Munson. The charge is petty theft. Mr. Munson, how do you plead?"
Eddie pleads not guilty and the proceedings begin.
The prosecutor starts his argument.
"On the evening of November 12th, an air dancer was stolen from Wheels and Deals car dealership. That air dancer was then seen at one of the defendants' rock shows."
Judge Steward interjects, "What is an "air dancer" exactly?"
"Your honor, an air dancer is an inflatable figure that, when attached to a fan, dances and flails around. They are mostly used for advertising, which was what Wheels and Deals Auto purchased this item for until it was stolen by Mr. Munson. The loss of potential profits from losing this item is substantial."
Eddie scoffs and his defense attorney rebuts with,
"They aren't exactly Superbowl commercials. They could bring in what, an extra sale or two?"
"Yes- of a car. Of which the average sale price for this establishment is for one single vehicle is $14,000."
Eddie's eyes go wide, he can't seriously be expected to pay 14 grand for a balloon, right?
The judge asks, "Mr. Mitchell, how much did Wheels & Deals purchase the air dancer for?"
"$149.95."
The arguments continue for a while, once they are finalized, Judge Steward makes her ruling.
"On the charge of petty theft, I find Mr. Munson guilty. He is ordered to pay $20 in restitution and work 12 hours of community service. The court is now adjourned."
As everyone leaves the room, you're approached by Regina, Judge Steward's clerk.
"You're the court reporter today, right?"
"Yes, I am."
"You can go. Judge Steward had something come up so the rest of the cases today are being postponed."
You grab your coat and walk outside. The ground is covered in slushy snow and as you walk down the courthouse steps, you lose your footing and start to slip. Just as you do, a hand reaches out to hold your elbow and steady you.
You look up and see the balloon thief smiling down at you from a step above. Now he's added a hoodie, leather jacket, and a denim vest over his button-up.
"Careful there, sweetheart. You could've fallen and landed on your money makers." He nods to your hands as he says "money makers" which makes you laugh.
"That would have been awful. Thanks, Mr. Munson."
"No problem. Let's make sure you make it the rest of the way in one piece, 'kay?"
He holds onto you the rest of the way down the stairs. Once you're on the sidewalk, he lets go, you miss his touch instantly.
"Thanks again, Mr. Munson. Take care."
"You too, sweetheart."
He gives you a nod before walking to the parking garage. You wait at the bus stop and check the schedule. The next bus isn't due for another 15 minutes. You would normally head back inside to wait but you don't want to risk embarrassing yourself again with the stairs.
You're shivering and breathing into your hands as a beat-up van approaches. Eddie reaches over and rolls down his passenger window to talk to you.
"You're gonna freeze out here, y'know?"
"Oh, I'm fine Mr. Munson. Really, don't worry about it."
"C'mon, let me drive you home."
You take a moment before getting in the van. It smells like cigarettes and some type of woodsy air freshener or cologne.
You buckle your seatbelt and thank him.
"Of course. Can't leave a fair maiden such as yourself to freeze. Where to?"
You smile at him and give him your address.
There's a comfortable silence between the two of you as he drives.
You look over at him and say, "Can I ask you something?" He looks at you from the corner of his eye.
"Why did I steal the air dancer?"
"Why did you steal the air dancer?"
"I didn't, he just came to my show. Can't help it that he has great music taste. Nice guy, actually. Named him Ozzy.
You laugh and he then says,
"That dealership is the worst, scamming people into buying shitty used cars for well over what they're worth. I work at Thacher Tire and we have so many people come in after being scammed by that place. I just had enough."
God, he stole something so stupid for such a sweet reason.
"That makes sense. A little payback for the people."
He looks at you and smiles, a beautiful dimpled smile "Exactly."
"How do you feel about the verdict?"
"Well, I'm still disappointed that my original trial by combat request was denied."
Your laughter fills the van, delighting Eddie as he continues,
"I'm glad I only have to pay $20, wish it was $0 but it's much more ideal than 14k."
"Very true."
"And the community service is fine. I mean, I was doing service for the community by stealing the damn thing in the first place but whatever." You nod in agreement as he continues,
"I'll be honest, one of the reasons I stole Ozzy is that I thought he'd be fun for shows. And for business."
"At the tire shop?"
"No, I deal on the side."
"Deal… cars?"
He laughs, "No, uh, other stuff."
Your eyebrows shoot up to your hairline and scold him,
"Eddie! Don't tell someone you met at the courthouse that you're a drug dealer!"
"Aw, I'm not Mr. Munson anymore? I liked when you called me that." You roll your eyes as he pulls up to your home. You're disappointed the drive was so short.
"I'm mostly just sad that I had to give Ozzy back to those dickheads. He belongs on stage with the real Ozzy, y'know?"
Your heart hurts at his personification of the inflatable man. You place your hand on his arm and say,
"Maybe they sent him to a farm where he can dance to Black Sabbath all day with others just like him."
He looks at your hand and bites his lip as he smiles.
"That's the dream. What, uh, what do you have going on the rest of the day?"
"Well, they sent me home early so I have no plans. I'm all free."
"Yeah? I'm kind of a free man too, in a way. Avoided some serious prison time today."
"Yeah? What are you gonna do with your newly found freedom, Mr. Munson?"
He looks at you for a moment before leaning in to kiss you. It's soft at first, your lips are barely touching as warm breath fans over you. He holds the back of your head with one hand and rubs your thigh with the other as he deepens the kiss. You give a tentative swipe at his lips with your tongue. He opens his mouth and repeats the action to you. You have your hands pressed against his chest as you lick into each other's mouths.
You pull back and invite him to come inside, he smiles a big toothy grin before jumping out of the van and sprinting (and sliding) to the passenger side to open your door. You giggle at him, he holds your waist as you walk up to your front door. You hesitate before opening it, realizing you should make sure he isn't some notorious drug kingpin.
"What do you deal?"
"Just weed. Sometimes other stuff but it's usually just weed."
"Other stuff? Like what?" Once the door is unlocked take off your shoes and he follows suit.
"Well, it's rare that anyone wants it, but every once in a while I sell ketamine."
"The horse tranquilizer?"
"What's a girl like you know about special k?" He asks.
You chuckle, "A girl like me spent 60 hours last week transcribing in drug court. Probably recording some of your clients, now that I think about it."
You lead him to your bedroom. Once you're inside, he slips off your coat and cardigan, then begins unbuttoning your shirt.
"Well with customer confidentiality I couldn't possibly say." He removes your shirt once it's unbuttoned and leans down to plant kisses along your breasts. You moan and tug at the many layers covering his torso, he takes the hint and removes them.
"Of course. You're a professional, after all." You kiss his neck and trace the tattoos that decorate his chest with your fingers.
"But, the next time one of my customers gets picked up, I may have to show up to their arraignment if it means I get to see you again."
You laugh and lay back on your bed before replying, "You think that would be good for their case? Their dealer showing up with a stolen air dancer?"
He climbs on top of you, a couple of loose curls hang by your face as he leans in.
"Who knows? I may just woo you into accidentally writing the transcript as not guilty."
You roll your eyes and kiss him.
He runs his hand up your stocking-covered leg. Once he reaches the top of your thigh where the fabric ends, he lets out a groan.
"Fuck, these don't go all the way up? You're killing me here. Let's get this skirt out of the way so I can get a better look."
He unzips your skirt and rolls it down your legs. Once it reaches your ankles, he stops and rests his head against your calf.
"Honey, you are something else." He kisses his way along your leg. He looks into your eyes as he lightly bites the fabric of your stockings and pulls. Your thighs go to close on instinct but he pulls them apart.
"Y-you tear those and you're buying me another pair."
"That's fine. Got a deal set up later today with Arod for some Ket."
"Who?"
"Arod? Legolas' horse in Lord of the Rings? He- y'know nevermind. It's not important right now. I'll tell you after."
You laugh at him and he returns his focus to kissing up your thigh. He lays smooches and licks in the area where your mound and thigh meet.
Your hips buck, he holds them down and says, "Woah, down girl."
"You're ridicu-"
He cuts you off by pressing his mouth to your clothed pussy.
You gasp and hold onto his hair.
He pulls back to slide off your panties and says, "Keep talking, sweetheart. Tell me how ridiculous I am while I lick you out." your face heats up as he uses his pointer and middle finger to spread your lips, inspecting you.
"Fuck. Isn't she pretty?"
He spits directly on your clit which makes you squirm. He licks a flat stripe up your folds before eagerly lapping at your clit. It sends little shocks through your whole body. His big hands keep your thighs spread as he devours you.
The slick, wet sounds combined with both of your moans is, quite frankly, obscene.
He moves down to your entrance and gives it a few licks before shoving his tongue in as far as it will go. You gasp and shudder as he presses in and out, fucking you with his tongue. He switches from keeping your thighs spread to squeezing them against his head. You're a bit worried about hurting him, but he's having the time of his life.
The vibration from the little pleasured noises he is making, the feeling of his tongue inside you, and his nose nudging against your clit has you nearly sobbing.
You feel his eyes bore into you and when you finally give in and look down at him, he's a mess. Red cheeks, ruffled hair, and a twinkle in his eyes as he watches you come undone.
He shakes his head back and forth desperately for a moment before moving up to focus on your clit. Having his pretty pink lips eagerly suck at your oversensitive clit is almost painful. As you feel the pressure in your belly build, you tug on his hair and whisper that you're close. He continues sucking, working for your orgasm like it's a prize to be won.
When your release hits, you're seeing stars. He doesn't stop sucking and lapping until you push him away, twitching and teary-eyed. He moves up your body and kisses you. He's more gentle with your mouth than he was with your cunt and the taste of him mixed with your own slick is mouthwatering.
You reach down and fumble with his belt. You tug down his pants and boxers just enough for his cock to spring out. It's a bit longer than average and thick with a reddened, leaky tip. You stroke it softly as he kisses your neck.
"Gotta be inside of you, honey. Please?" He practically whimpers.
"Mhmm, put in me."
You feel him smile against you before saying,
"Yes ma'am. Here, let me help." Reaching down, he covers your hand that's holding his cock with his own and guides your hands up and down your folds before prodding at your entrance.
He enters you slowly, inch by inch, until he's buried all the way in.
"Jesus Christ, I'm not gonna last long. She's squeezin' me so tight. I nearly creamed my pants from eating you out."
"It's okay, Eddie. Take your time."
He holds still for a moment before grinding into you. You moan and hold onto his shoulders. Once he has control over himself, he finds a rhythm. The patch of curly hair surrounding his cock tickles your clit with every thrust. He reaches down to grip your thighs as he fucks you. He lasts for a few moments before pulling back to look at you with a pained expression on his face.
"You okay?"
"Fuck, I'm so close. Where c-can I cum?"
"Wh-where do you want to cum?"
"Your thighs, fuck. Want to cum on your thighs so bad."
"Please, paint my stockings, Mr. Munson."
Your words send him over the edge, he curses and pulls out, covering your stocking and skin with his release. He lays down beside you and pulls you to his chest. You listen to his heartbeat while he takes a moment to catch his breath. Once he does, he says,
"So, as I was saying, Arod is Legolas' horse and-"

Good morning! her is the schedule for today. you have 30 mins to get ready and come back here. then you will split into two groups and each group will be assigned a song to practice. you will practice that song for the next two days. when that song is preformed in two days, two people will get eli minated. please head to your rooms and get ready for the day. thank you and see you in 30 mins"
"ok! lets get ready"-rora
you girls got ready and met back in the living room. yong-hee told you to get into two groups. since there are 13 of you, there were six in one group and seven in the other group. you seven were sitting on your side, and the other six, on their side.
"group one, Eun-sa, Soo-ah, Cho-gyung, Rora, y/n, and Se-un. you will be practicing 'Wannabe by Itzy'. "

Your vamp au made me howl with laugher.
And I get a stupid idea here:
Purrrfect@always_purfect
I don't know about m*thrfuking vampires but I think this dude really has some power. It's the FORCE!People! Sith is real!
You guys are with me? Yes? I know this is not the normal shit I do or normal fake news I enjoyed so much to tear apart while laughing like crazy.
After 6 fuxking hours video comparison with 3 more hours debates with every SW YouTubers and VTubers we can gathered at the moment.
It's goddamned real.
The vamp lover's eye color changed from honeybrown to sith gold in the 48 different videos and photos we could found.
From 32 phones, 6 photos, 5 shop cameras, 3car cameras and 2 honest to force Polaroid photos. If you have more video, send it to me!
From his ehh passioned defense of his bestfriend-it's on the Brazil national News- we can found a base color and even then they flashed gold when surrounding lights didn't change at all.
Look at these [1:27 from video2][0:43 from video8][6:05 from video39]. You can see his eye color changed to gold even in the shadows, yeah they were totally glowing The first time I thought it's reflect too. But they didn't change back to honey when he turned around to face [3:14 from video 11] and they just keep going all sith-y when he decided to make a run for it. *[Check for more traditional sith eye color and video lights detail analysis]*
How could we be so sure it's force?
Our (probably not) young Sith Lord wasn't touched by any person when he raced trough the whole mob.
Turned left at third blue guard bar 0.23s early to avoid a grab from a redhood male from behind. Keep his pace and dance though at least 5 intentionaltripping without looking at all. Dropped back 2 inches so a kid next to him didn't lost his balloon because their parents were trying too hard to get a good angle. Dogged at least 12 throwing projects. And so on. I could keep going all day about how it's impossible for human to do what he did. Our pitiful brain just do not have the processing power and spatial awareness for this.*[Check for more kinematic analysis ]*
But the truth is:
Not a single soul could touch him at all. If he's not a chairvoyance, the Force will it is the only answer.
# First real time video record of eagle vision in the human history and it's Desmond running from Leovamp fans # # Sith Lord Eyes#
@fanworldbuildingfun Okay. I did not expect a Star Wars conspiracy angle but I'm all in.
=======================
@revengeofthesithwasagoodmovie reblogs @always_purfect

October 2022 Art (OC-tober)
All my drawings for OC-tober 2022! I did miss out Day 9 + Day 22, I think coz the prompts weren't specific to any of my OCs, but I was happy to get a unique OC drawn for 29 whole days! I'll list the prompts below too
vvv dates + info under the cut vvv
1, 2, 3 - 01-02-03/10/2022 : (The Care Taker ; The Crazy One ; The Guide)
Raven, Calypso, and Sean - Raven being something of a caretaker, caring for her little brothers, and even taking on her infant half siblings, she's very busy all of the time... Calypso, yeah hes just crazie. Sean I figured is a maths teacher, he probably teaches Noah, and is a mentor to him
4, 5, 6 - 04-05-06/10/2022 : (The Grump ; The Beauty ; The Evil One)
Ruben, Antonia, and Russula - Ruben is definitely grumpy, I think the only thing that could make him smile is if you present him with some nice cheeses, or do something really stupid :p Toni, ofc is beautiful, she takes a lot of pride in her appearance, oh the style!! i wanna be her!! Russula.. isnt "evil", not really, but shes a demon lady so thats as close as you'll get x
7, 8, 9 - 07-08-10/10/2022 : (The Pet Owner ; The Mechanic ; The Quiet One)
Wren, Delilah, and Jay - I like thinking Wren would, at some point, have a guide dog, though it's not really canon unfortunately. Delilah is one of my Ace Attorney OCs! The daughter of Ron & Desiree, she definitely has a knack for mechanics, even at such a young age. Jay is like the "fly on the wall" of the Maedas, so is Robin tbf, I think both of them sit in a corner and stare, but yeah totally quiet, unless he feels like being snarky, he just sits and is judgemental
10, 11, 12 - 11-12-13/10/2022 : (The Handsome One ; The Thief ; The Best Friends)
Copper, Angel, Blaire + Ginger - Copper is handsome!!! thats all really. Angel is another of my AA OCs, Delilah's grandma, actually, like Ron she's a thief, though it's more serious stuff, Angel might not even be her real name, who knows! Blaire and Ginger are beloved to me, best friends who found each other thru drag!
13, 14 - 14-15/10/2022 : (The Gun Lover ; The Cutie pie)
Richie and Robin - Richie isn't a "gun lover" exactly, only that he has a gun for an arm, sometimes, which he loves, but yea he might be a bit "and then i started blastin"... and Robin is a cutie pie! I've updated his design since this, but he's still cute <3
15, 16, 17 - 16-17-18/10/2022 : (Someone Else's OC (Mitzi from @creaturedrawz) ; The Helper ; The Nature Lover)
Mitzi, Susie, and Buttercup - i hadn't drawn Mitzi yet and i rly wanted to bc i love her... i need to draw for others more x ,, Susie, ofc is very helpful, super friendly and outgoing, and Buttercup is a farm boy, despite living in the city he still ofc has a huge love of nature
18, 19, 20 - 19-20-21/10/2022 : (The Father ; The Siblings ; The Girl Next Door)
Felix, Una + Zin, and Penny - Felix... ugh.. da dad evar... i love his swag ass gay boy style... Una n Zin, some of my IZ OCs, they're siblings, but, it's complicated, they consider each other siblings anyway thats all that matters, Una worries abt him a lot. PENNY, ms americas sweetheart that penny. she is battling demons in hell, with her boobs (gay)... she used to be human, but since fucking. dying. shes having a gradual transformation x
21, 22, 23 - 23-24-25/10/2022 : (The Gang Leader ; The Sad One ; The Gamer)
Caspian, Rushada, and Pumpkin - Caspian isn't a gang leader, but he would get wrapped up in gangs, but dont worry he turns it around <3 Rushada my beloved sadgirl.. again its funny to see her before i gave her a slight redesign, i liked her hands in this one tho. Pumpkin is a gamer, in his gamer zelda shirt and gamer cargo shorts, thats about it
24, 25, 26 - 26-27-28/10/2022 : (The Mother ; The Power Within ; The Lovers)
Alice, Lafayette, Gizmo + Jasmine - Alice <3 my scouse ma.. she kinda just is The mother of my ocs ig ,, Lafayette, i still haven't figured out anything too concrete about his lore, but the hidden power thing is something i feel fits him. Jasmine n Gizmo have been my standout married couple ocs for years now, i just never draw Gizmo LOL, so this is still the most recent thing of him... oops
27, 28, 29 - 29-30-31/10/2022 : (The Scientist ; The Marked One ; The Goddess)
Daffy, Luna, and Rosaline - Last stretch..... im getting tired of typing....... Daffy likes to picture himself as a mad scientist but hes just a dorky autistic dude accidentally making nuclear bombs in his bedroom lmfao. Luna i thought was obvious for the prompt, she's a zombie catgirl so shes just, parts. bits n pieces. Rosaline, again like Lafayette, i dont have much concrete about her, but being my 1 goddess oc it was pretty obvious she'd be the one i drew for the last day lol

Dovrei essere contenta vista la quantità dei drama visti quest'anno. Ma ahimè quantità non implica qualità: a differenza degli altri anni, non ho trovato serie capaci di farmi innamorare...capaci di rimanere nella mia mente per settimane e settimane.
Quel drama che ti prende il cuore e si fa amare anche con mille difetti...ho visto drama carini, apprezzabili e godibili ma roba alla Black o alla The Untamed - per capirci - non ne ho trovata.
ma comunque:
1) Il drama più bello che hai visto: Reborn Rich
Ok, diciamo che questo drama è tutto, tranne che perfetto. Il finale poi andrebbe riscritto da capo e la storia d'amore per me, poteva benissimo essere eliminata.
Nonostante ciò a me questa serie è piaciuta molto. La recitazione è stata d'altissimo livello per tutti gli attori, con alcuni che hanno letteralmente spaccato lo schermo data la loro bravura.
La trama non è nulla di innovativo per carità - tizio sfigatissimo che torna nel passato e grazie alle sue conoscenze trova rivalsa e giustizia - ma ho amato tutta la parte anni 80' e 90' e 2000: i vestiti, i film, gli eventi e tutta la cultura che faceva parte di quel periodo. Come dimenticare l'attesa per lo scoccare degli anni 2000? Quando alcuni pensavano che sarebbe finito il mondo?
E' poi così soddisfacente vedere il percorso del protagonista, i suoi piani e soluzioni per raggiungere i suoi obbiettivi e inevitabilmente ti ritrovi a fare il tifo per lui, soprattutto in confronto agli altri personaggi. Song Joong Ki tratteggia un personaggio che per certi versi ricorda il buon Vincenzo e siccome ne ero un po' orfana, trovo bello ritrovare anche qui. Anche se qui la scena viene letteralmente rubata da Lee Sung Min che regala un interpretazione del Nonno del protagonista da Oscar. la dinamica tra Nonno e Nipote poi, credo che sia la cosa più bella e che più mi ha convinto di questa serie.
Ho poi trovato interessante come nonostante la serie fosse un mini corso di economia aziendale, tra azioni, borsa, indice di mercato e compagnia, io non mi sia mai annoiata. La serie ha un buon ritmo, svariati colpi di scena ed è emozionante osservare il viaggio di Joong Ki per ottenere la sua rivincita.
2) La storia d'amore che ti ha conquistato di più: My Dear Donovan
Ci sono state tante storie d'amore che ricordo con piacere soprattutto sul lato Korea. Ma faccio il salto della quaglia e voto per My Dear Donovan direttamente dalla Thailandia.
La prima cosa che ho apprezzato è che il lead non fosse il solito CEO arrogante, con la puzza sotto il naso che guarda un po', si innamora del caso umano di turno. In My Dear Donovan, il Donovan è un ragazzo normalissimo che nonostante faccia l'attore e quindi si presume sia superbo come pochi, in realtà è dolcissimo e molto alla mano.
La storia d'amore è semplice ma ben costruita passo passo, con la protagonista imbranatissima in amore ma una volta trovatolo, è decisa a stargli accanto nel bene e nel male. Come ogni relazione ha i suoi alti e bassi, litigate, dubbi, fraintendimenti, problemi di comunicazione ecc ecc ma loro reggono botta - soprattutto grazie alla lead - e superano le difficoltà che gli si pongono davanti guidati dalla voglia di stare assieme.
Carini da morire.
3) Il drama che ti è piaciuto di meno: Gaus Electronics
Ok, questo drama è stato visto unicamente per la presenza di Kwak Dong Yeon, attore che avevo adorato in Vincenzo e che volevo vedermi in un ruolo più centrale. Ed perché era una commedia leggera. Io e @veronica-nardi ci guardiamo sempre mattoni, robe serie e per una volta volevamo qualcosa di più spensierato.
Ma Gaus è troppo spensierato. Ed ha una comicità che non mi ha quasi mai fatto ridere. Un po' come Welcome To Waikiki. Quella voglia di far ridere a tutti costi mettendo appositamente scene assurde che dovrebbero essere divertenti ma che lo senti da lontano che sono forzatissime solo per suscitarti la risata.
Più vedo questi genere di drama koreani e più penso che una certa comicità possa farla ed esser convincenti solo i giapponesi.
4) una serie che meriterebbe un sequel: Mezzanotte a Istanbul
Ne ho due. Il primo è Mezzanotte a Istanbul. Necessito di un seguito perché la serie si è conclusa con un colpone di scena che presuppone un continuo ma che ad oggi, nulla si sa. @ili91-efp nulla?
Le domande lasciate aperte sono milioni e tutte le teorie che mi sono fatta sui vari viaggi nel tempo, il ruolo e l'identità della protagonista, sua figlia, il lead e tutta quest'altra roba, DEVE essere risolta.
L'altro è Moving. Anch'esso è finito facendoci presupporre un continuo, con la presentazione di altri ipotetici villain - un intero alfabeto a quanto pare - ma soprattutto voglio vedere come continua la vita delle persone con i super poteri? Le varie famiglie avranno trovato la pace? O il Governo - come si evince dal finale - non ha ancora finito con loro? Dateci il sequel!!
5) Il personaggio preferito: The Gifted
Nonostante la serie di The Gifted sia affondata nella mia opinione personale come il Titanic in quella celebre notte, una cosa positiva me l'ha data: Wave.
Wave mia stella polare nel nulla cosmico.
Quando inizia la serie Wave ci viene presentato come un vero "dito in culo". Ossessionato dai voti e dalla classifica della scuola, Wave non è interessato a stringere amicizie o conoscere persone. Anche perché soffre di una terribile mancanza di fiducia negli altri e teme di poter essere usato.[ SPOILER] cosa che è effettivamente successo. [FINE SPOILER]
Durante la serie Wave mostra un evoluzione clamorosa. Quello che dice e fa' , mi ha riempito di gioia e di un orgoglio senza pari. Durante il drama rimane un personaggio a tutto tondo, deciso e chiaro, dimostrando però di poter e voler cambiare.
[SPOILER]
Il voler andare nella stessa università dei poracci di Pang rinunciando ad una formazione a 5 stelle per amicizia - anche se per me questi due sono già fidanzati e sposati. Ma non lo dite in giro. Per me sono un BL nascosto - dimostra un cambiamento, un apertura che non ha eguali in nessun altro personaggio della serie. [FINE SPOILER]
Tumblr media
6) Il personaggio più odiato: Goodby My Princess
Ci metto quasi tutti i personaggi di Goodbye My Princess. Dal principe in questione, al second lead. Dalla Nonna imperatrice al cane che passa sullo sfondo. Ho augurato ogni male a più di metà personaggi ed ad ogni morte non ho mai versato una singola lacrima. Ok, qui più che colpa dei personaggi era colpa della scrittura della serie.
Ma ancora... se ripenso al lead [SPOILER[ che uccide il second lead davanti alla moglie e dopo gli professa il suo amore, [FINE SPOILER] mi sale un crimine così forte che vorrei entrare nel drama per pestarlo.
Ed è infatti il lead di Goodbye il mio vincitore in questa categoria. La serie ce lo presenta come quest'uomo desideroso di vendetta e potere che manipola, usa, intriga e ammazza chiunque gli si pari davanti. E nemmeno gli affetti più cari sono in salvo dalla sua missione. [SPOILER] Qui ricordo che nella prima vita ha mentito alla lead, la usata, gli ha ammazzato Nonno, Madre e reso pazzo il Padre. L'ha rapita e voleva sposarla con la forza.
Nella sua seconda vita, siccome sta poraccia non aveva sofferto abbastanza, si ritrovano sposati e senza memoria di cosa sia successo prima.
Il lead, nonostante sappia che la famiglia della ragazza sia morta, le mente di nuovo, facendole credere che siano ancora tutti vivi. Forse prova un fascino perverso nel vederla scrivere a dei genitori che MAI RISPONDERANNO. Poi s'innamorano - dio solo sa come - ed il lead inizia a insultarla, stalkerarla... da bravo uomo tossico non comprende come la moglie sia infelice della loro vita matrimoniale e anche se lo capisse NON GLIENE FREGHEREBBE NULLA. L'importante è che lei stia lì. Aggiungiamo sequestro di persona ai reati di quest'uomo.
Con una simile mentalità non può sopportare che la lead sia legata ad un altro uomo, quindi, quando ciccia fuori il second lead e nonostante sappia che sia il maestro della moglie e che lei ci tiene molto, lo ammazza davanti e a lei OBBLIGANDOLA a vederlo morire.
Disperata e obbligata ad un matrimonio tossico la lead finalmente recupera la memoria della sua prima vita e la tegolata che gli arriva in testa è terribile! Quado poi il lead decide di fare guerra al regno della moglie, la ragazza si ammazza pur di fermarlo.
Ma per tutta la serie il lead, con le mani ancora sporche di sangue e sanità mentale della moglie [FINE SPOILER] ci ripeterà che l'ha sempre amata.
OHHHHHH.... l'amore!
Io non so quante imprecazioni ho tirato verso questo personaggio. Ogni volta che era in scena, avevo la bile che saliva a livelli astronomici. Bugiardo, manipolatore, tossico...
7) L'ambientazione più brutta: Back From The Brink
Back from the Brink. Quella foresta di alberi finti tipo recita della scuola mi danno ancora fastidio a pensarci.
Idealmente erano anche paesaggi belli essendo il drama un fantasy, c'erano molte location che visivamente - da lontano - erano belle.
Ma una volta viste da vicino si vedeva questo effetto finto che pareva tutta roba di plastica.
8) Il finale più bello: PS: i hate You
Poetico.
Il finale di questo drama, non solo racchiude perfettamente il mood della serie ma lo fa con un colpone di scena che si poteva annusare da lontano ma che quando accade è così assurdo che non ci credi. Non solo.
Il finale di Ps I hate you chiude splendidamente tutte le trame e da' ai personaggi la conclusione perfetta.
Niente buonismo, niente cose strane per far arrivare al lieto fine forzatamente la storia...finisce tutto come dovrebbe finire.
[SPOILER] ho amato che Saras, l'unica delle cinque ragazze a prendersi la responsabilità dei suoi misfatti, fosse anche l'unica che alla fine sorridesse. [FINE SPOILER]
Finale perfetto. Non lo cambierei di una virgola.
9) Un attore e un attrice che ti sono piaciuti tantissimo: Reborn Rich e One Piece
Attore preferito: Lee Sung Min. La sua interpretazione in Reborn Rich è stata così toccante e intensa che mi sono commossa. Soprattutto nella parte finale della storia quando la trama prevedeva un'interpretazione più emotiva, ha dato il meglio di se. La scena dell'ascensore rimane una delle più toccanti viste quest'anno.
Vorrei però dare il premio di consolazione a Lee Je Hoon in Taxi Driver. Qui la storia prevedeva che l'attore in questione fingesse di essere diverse persone e non importa il tipo: dal coatto di periferia al tirocinante imbranato, Lee Je Hoon ha interpretato in modo magistrale qualsiasi ruolo richiestogli. Bravissimo.
Per le donne invece, voto per Emily Rudd in One Piece. Considerando la giovane età e la pressione del dover intepretare un personaggio così famoso, Emily ha fatto un ottimo lavoro. Il cambiamento della personalità del personaggio durante la serie, è perfettamente realizzato dall'attrice che fa notare molto bene questo passaggio cruciale del suo personaggio.
La sua recitazione non è ovviamente intensa come quella di altre attrici nella mia lista ma voglio dargli il voto sulla fiducia e sul grand lavoro svolto.
Tumblr media
10) La morte di un personaggio che ancora non hai superato: Goodbye My Princess
Onestamente non ricordo di morti che non avrei voluto accadessero. Ma trovo allucinante come in Goodbye My Princess [SPOILER] siano crepati TUTTI tranne l'unico a cui auguravo un Erasmus tra i lombrichi.
Scherzi a parte, ci sono rimasta male per la morte della lead poiché sta poraccia aveva avuto una vita di merda, con un matrimonio orribile e l'unico modo per sfuggire a tutto è stato il suicidio. [FINE SPOILER]
Non si meritava quella fine. Non così. E non lei.
Chiariamoci, non è perché mi freghi qualcosa di lei a livello emotivo - mi stava simpatica ma nulla di più - il mio " morte non superata" è più ad un livello di giustizia divina.
Goodbye My princess mi ha insegnato che non c'è giustizia a questo mondo.
11) La OST che ti è piaciuta di più: High and Low
Qui me la gioco facile. Se nel quiz c'è High and Low, stai certa che vincerà nella categoria musicale. Sarà perché in realtà questo drama è uno spottone al gruppo degli Exile?! probabile
Comunque sia, l'OST che voglio far vincere è Top Down degli Exile appunto, canzone che accompagna il Liceo Housan.
Mado' che carica che da'! Il ritmo e quelle note ti fanno venir voglia di saltare sulla sedia e ballare come se non ci fosse un domani.
youtube
ALZATEEEEE IL VOLUMEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
12) L'attore e attrice peggiori: Café Minamdang/ Back From the Brink
Come attrice peggiore voto Oh Yeon Seo di Cafe Minamdang. Purtroppo a me questa attrice, non c'è verso che mi piaccia. L'avevo già vista in Korean Odissey ed era stata la sua recitazione il più grave motivo per il drop di quella serie. In questa, continuo a trovarla troppo rigida e finta. Una recitazione che non mi convince, con quegli occhi spalancati e quella rigidezza che proprio non mi piace.
Stesso discorso per Neo Hou di Back from the Brink. Ho trovato la sua recitazione troppo rigida con il risultato che il suo personaggio doveva essere altero e freddo ma sembrava troppo compassato. Anche nelle scene presumibilmente più divertenti, la sua rigidità facciale mi ha impedito di godermi i momenti.
13) Una serie che merita più conoscenza: Miu 404
Voterò per MIU 404 premiandolo per essere sì una serie investigativa ad episodi ma capace di sviluppare la trama orizzontale lungo tutta la storia. E non sempre è così. Ha un buon livello di indagine, qualche mistero e personaggi interessanti che creano delle bromance molto carine.
Inoltre ha un buon ritmo e umorismo alla giapponese che non guasta mai.
Merita di essere più conosciuto secondo me, perché è davvero un buon prodotto, uno dei migliori che ho visto di questo genere ad episodi.
14) Il momento che ti ha fatto saltare sulla sedia PS: i hate you
PS: I hate You si è portato a casa qualche premio quest'anno, tra cui questo. Il momento che mi ha fatto saltare sulla sedia non è stato tanto per la rivelazione ma perché era così assurda, così "malefica" - ma che si sentiva da lontano - che quando succede davvero puoi solo coprirti la bocca con la mano sconvoltissima.
E sì, [SPOILER] mi riferisco alla sorpresa di Pitch come psicopatico che ha complottato per uccidere la sua stessa sorella ed avere la ragazza dei suoi sogni come premio e giocattolino nel finale. [ FINE SPOILER]
E' stato stupendo perché io già a metà serie avevo annusato che c'era qualcosa che non andava ma mai avrei pensato che sarebbero arrivati a quel punto.
Capolavoro.
Della psicopatia.
Ma ancora capolavoro.
15) Il protagonista maschile preferito: High and Low The Worst Episode 0
Io sono piuttosto sicura che non è la prima volta che Murayama Yoshiki si prende questo premio. Ahimè sono una sua fan sfegatata: potevo perdermi l'occasione per premiarlo ancora una volta? Dai che è l'ultima.
Tralasciando battute da fangirl, leggendo la lista, grandi lead maschili capaci di prendermi il cuore e farmi empatizzare con loro...non ce ne sono stati. Carini sì. Alcuni più interessanti di altri ma ancora dimenticabili.
Ed allora voto per questo ragazzo - anche se ormai dovrebbe essere sulla venticinquina - ma l'età scolastica del Liceo Oya è variabile - capace sempre di farmi sorridere e stupirmi.
E' chiaro che una delle cose che apprezzo di più in un personaggio è la sua crescita ed evoluzione. Posso amare un characters quando lo vedo crescere, cambiare ed essere una persona diversa, rispetto all'inizio della storia.
Murayama è così. Parte come ragazzino a cui piace fare a botte senza nessuno scopo, per diventare un leader competente e capace anche di prendere decisioni impopolari per salvaguardare il futuro dei ragazzi. E quando nel finale decide di lasciare finalmente la scuola, è come se passasse il testimone agli altri ragazzi che adesso dovranno portare in alto la bandiera dell'Oya come aveva già fatto lui.
Tra i vari personaggi dell'intera saga di High&Low, Murayama è quello che ho amato di più e su cui la serie stessa ha sviluppato la storia. E ci sarà un motivo. XD
16) La storia d'amore che non ti è piaciuta: Extraordinary You
Per non far vincere di nuovo Goodbye My Princess - anche se questa categoria sarebbe la sua, praticamente - voterò per Extraordinaey You.
Non ho mai capito perché e per come questi due si dovessero amare. La lead si incuriosisce del personaggio senza nome che fa da sfondo alla trama del fumetto, iniziano a parlare e s'innamorano. La storia d'amore parte anche in modo carino e per i primi episodi più interessare ma dopo un po' annoia.
Erano perfetti assieme e grondavano miele fuso non c'è mai stato conflitto, tensione, pepe nella loro storia d'amore. Tanto che i classici impedimenti sono stati tutti esterni alla coppia.
Ed alla fine ho trovato la loro storia d'amore piatta e super scontata. Anche perché lui, avendo la personalità di un budino, faceva tutto ciò che la lead gli diceva, lei lo guardava con gli occhi a cuore ecc ecc...
Una coppia noiosa.
17) Miglior bacio: Tale Of The Nine- Tailed 1938
Voto il bacio tra Lee Rang e Jang Yeo Hee.
Finalmente una gioia per quest'uomo!
Dopo un corteggiamento serrato da parte della sirenetta dei nostri cuori e dopo aver ricevuto vari rifiuti, finalmente Lee Rang abbandona tutte le paranoie, insicurezze e dubbi e mi regala un gran bel bacio. Anche perché nato dopo episodi ed episodi di ottima chimica trai due personaggi e occhiate languide da una parte e dall'altra. XD
E' stato bello vederlo sciogliersi a abbandonare l'ossessione per suo fratello per vivere finalmente questa storia d'amore.
Tumblr media
18) Il drama che hai fatto fatica a finire: The Gifted 2
Oddio, in questa risposta ci poteva entrare benissimo anche The Midnight Museum ma si è salvato poiché così assurdo e fuori di testa che volevo arrivare alla fine, solo per scoprire cosa gli sceneggiatori si sarebbero inventati di altrettanto inconcepibile.
Ecco perché il voto va a The Gifted 2. La prima stagione mi era piaciuta ma la seconda mi ha terribilmente annoiato e non vedevo l'ora che finisse: personaggi involuti, villain con un plot armor esagerato, buchi di trama, cosa che accadono ma che facciamo finta che non siano mai successe...un delirio.
Inoltre tutta la parte centrale della stagione, non vede la trama fare passi avanti. [SPOILER] Da quando Pang e gli altri si allontano - intorno al 4-5 episodio - fino al 10/11 episodio, non succede nulla di rilevante ai fini della trama. Sì c'è la lotta tra il governo e il preside, la non morte di Time e Korn ma nel disegno globale, tutto questo potevano cancellarlo e voilà il finale non sarebbe cambiato quasi per niente. [FINE SPOILER]
19) Scena d'azione migliore: Yu Yu Hakusho
Incredibile ma vero, non è High And Low a vincere in questa categoria. Anche se le botte sono state meravigliose come sempre!
Voto per combattimenti di Yu Yu Hakusho che sì, c'era troppo sangue e budella per i miei gusti ma le legnate tra Yusuke e Goki nella discarica delle macchine, mi rimarrà nel cervello per mesi.
C'è Goki che prende una portiera di una macchina e la lancia dritto per dritto in faccia a Yusuke. Quello salta al centimetro e con mosse da contorsionista, schiva la portiera che si va a conficcare in un altra auto a 2 cm dal protagonista!
Poesia!
20) Miglior Villain: Reborn Rich
Voto per il vecchio Jin Yang Cheol.
Ok, è un villain un po' atipico ma per il lead e noi spettatori, ha sicuramente rivestito il ruolo di antagonista da sconfiggere.
Il nonno del protagonista infatti, non è malefico, infido o perverso. Quest'uomo è un cinico bastardo, arguto capitalista inflessibile, esigente, a tratti crudele, machiavellico, spregiudicato...ma ha anche dei difetti
Ma allora perché il migliore?
Perché se è difficile creare un eroe in una storia, ancor più difficile è creare un avversario credibile da battere ed il Nonno del protagonista è stato un incredibile rivale per il nipote. Per Do Jun battere il nonno in affari è l'unico modo per mostrare quanto vale, a costo di farlo soffrire.
Ed il finale del personaggio del Nonno è incredibilmente triste e se la serie è riuscita a farmi empatizzare con un tale personaggio, un uomo mostrato spesso nel suo lato peggiore, c'è solo da fare degli applausi.
21) Il finale peggiore: I Am The Years You Are The Star
Qui il premio c'è a mani basse. Dopo 24 episodi che mi rompi il caz..o sulla SICURISSIMA morte della protagonista. poiché malata di una malattia sconosciuta ma incurabile... [SPOILER] lei guarisce. Da cosa non si sa. Come non si sa. Ma lei adesso sta bene. Giusto in tempo per coronare il suo sogno d'amore. Non è bellissimo??! [FINE SPOILER]
Quando sono arrivata al finale ero così basita e fuori dai miei panni che mi sono trovata a ridere istericamente per 10 minuti buoni.
Questo non è un finale. E' una presa per il cu..o.
22) La protagonista femminile preferita: My love from the star
La star Cheon Song Yi. Donna con i contro cazzi ma capace di essere alla mano e super divertente. Nonostante il ruolo da attrice famosissima, Song Yi rimane una ragazza alla mano che fa cose che tutte noi potremmo fare: cantare ubriache davanti alla tv, fare telefonate senza senso o scenate degne della migliore tragedia greca.
Ma oltre a ciò, Cheon Song Yi è anche una donna decisa, che sa quel che vuole e risponde per le rime a chi non la rispetta.
E se qualcosa va male, non si deprime pensando che la sua vita è rovinata ecc..ecc ma prende le cose come vengono. Decisa sì a rimettere in piedi la sua vita dopo i vari problemi ma senza piangersi addosso ogni 3 minuti o implorare l'aiuto di altri.
Tumblr media
23) La scena o frase che ti è rimasta impressa: Reborn Rich
Di nuovo Reborn Rich e qui metterò papale papale la scena incriminata: [SPOILER]
Io non credo che potrò mai dimenticare il 12° episodio: la scena nell'ascensore, quando il Nonno dopo una sfuriata colossale al lead, si fa la pipì addosso e guarda il ragazzo con lo sguardo disperato è di una potenza stratosferica. Credo di aver pianto. Tornando alla scena dell'ascensore, quella è emblematica per mostrare i diversi livelli di attaccamento dei due nipoti verso il nonno: mentre il maggiore mette consapevolmente il nonno in difficoltà, mettendolo appositamente in imbarazzo, desideroso di mostrare agli altri la demenza del Nonno per il proprio tornaconto, Do Jin protegge la dignità dell'anziano, rovesciando appositamente il secchio d'acqua per nascondere la pipì del vecchio e non far capire alla donna delle pulizie lì presente, quello che era successo.[FINE SPOILER] Nonno e Nipote si ritrovano a proteggersi a vicenda cementificando un legame già stupendo e regalando allo spettatore tutta l'intensità di questa relazione ormai arrivata alle battute finali ma che è stata così incisiva e bellissima lungo tutto l'arco della serie.
Ci ho ripensato per giorni a questa scena e ancora adesso mi fa scendere la lacrimuccia e mi fa commuovere.
24) Il villain peggiore: W
Cosa c'è di peggio di un cattivo scritto male??
Uno che non esiste. e voilà
Eh già. Perché il fantastico autore di questo fumetto ha pensato bene di dare al villain un valore emotivo e non narrativo e quindi non strutturando nessuna storia attorno a lui. [SPOILER]
Il cattivo di W e poi anche del fumetto, non ha motivazioni, non ha background, non ha nulla. Semplicemente è un cartonato che sta lì per ammazzare la famiglia del lead, incastrarlo per omicidio della stessa e ciao. Adios amigos. [FINE SPOILER]
Terribile. E lo so che dovrei prendermela con lo scrittore del fumetto per aver creato sto mostro di nonsense, ma siccome si vota il "villain peggiore" e l'autore non si è impegnato manco mezzo secondo per crearlo, il voto della vergogna se lo prende lui.
25) Una bromance spettacolare: Tale Of The Nine Tailed
Qui voto per il fratelli volpe. Lee Rang e Lee Yeon lungo tutte le due stagioni hanno un rapporto molto strano: Il minore è legatissimo al fratello - quasi ossessivo - ama suo fratello ma lo risente per averlo abbandonato. Vorrebbe passare del tempo con lui ma ha sempre il terrore di affezionarsi e poi soffrire nel caso che Yeon [SPOILER[ lo abbandoni di nuovo. [FINE SPOILER]
D'altra parte Yeon adora il fratellino ma vorrebbe vivere una vita sua, stare con la ragazza che ama e vorrebbe che anche Rang trovasse una sua strada che sia a prescindere dalla vita di Yeon.
Nella prima stagione tra i due fratelli c'è maretta e una dinamica conflittuale ma che allo stesso tempo è amorevole. Nella seconda, le cose vanno ancora meglio ed i due fratelli finalmente si riappacificano e trovano ognuno la propria strada.
Una bromance carina, profonda e divertente che rivedo sempre volentieri.
Tumblr media
25 BIS) L'anno scorso la sfida era vedere:
Un cdrama storico o wuxia
Un drama tratto da un libro/novel/manga/webcomic
Un drama che ha vinto almeno un premio
come è andata? ci siete riusciti?
Yes! E non ho nemmeno dovuto cercarli. Mi sono capitati e solo quando sono andata a fare il quiz, mi sono accorta di aver completato la missione.
Back From The Brink per il drama Wuxia, One Piece per il drama tratto da manga e Moving per aver vinto il Grand Bell Awards nella categoria Miglior Serie. oltre ad aver vinto una fraccata di altri premi.
La sfida di quest'anno è di vedersi un drama/film co-prodotto o con attori (principali) di due o più paesi, entro la fine del 2024. Dite che è fattibile? XD
Qui ho barato. Onestamente non avevo idea di quale drama vedermi con queste caratteristiche...ma poi leggendo la risposta al quiz di @lisia81 mi sono illuminata: One Piece.
Cioè!
Non è che è fattibile, è già fatta praticamente.

Tutto ciò che eravamo è tutto ciò che saremo mai". Hermione Granger non ricorda l'ultima volta che ha sognato - il sonno è arrivato come un abisso nero, uno spazio vuoto tra i momenti di veglia... non diverso dalla sua memoria. Mancavano così tanti mesi agli ultimi due anni della sua vita. Aveva fatto pace con quegli spazi vuoti, dicendosi che erano il risultato del trauma e delle torture subite in guerra. Così, quando si sveglia da qualcosa che sembra più un ricordo che un sogno, qualcosa che la sua mente non avrebbe mai concepito da sola, si tuffa a capofitto nel mistero del sesto anno. Determinata a illuminare i punti neri della sua linea temporale che non riesce a ricordare, Hermione si ritrova coinvolta in incubi degli anni passati che sono più di quanto sembrino. Più ricorda, più scopre che al centro di tutti i suoi ricordi dimenticati c'è Draco Malfoy, criminale di guerra in attesa di processo per i suoi crimini come Mangiamorte.

OC question of the day! If you could make a character real, which of your OCs would be:
your bestie
your spouse/partner
your secret lover!
your friendly rival
your enemy!
BONUS: do this for other people’s OCs too! Pass the game along (anonymously or not)
HAHAH ok so I’ve had another one of these asks marinating in my inbox bc OMG such a hard decision but ok I’m ready now
Tumblr media Tumblr media
your bestie
❧ i would have to say dan. she's like this no-nonsense, authentic gal and incredibly protective over her friends. however, she doesn't get blinded by that. she'll tell you what you need to hear so YEAH!
your spouse/partner
❧ GOD THIS IS LIKE THE MOST DIFFICULT QUESTION! AH AH! like we have atlas but he's a feral cat that needs to be domesticated ASAP. gabriel and his beautiful confidence. frances and her meticulousness. however, i'd probably have to go with icarus. i love that he's so driven and well-balanced (minus the whole vi fiasco). in the upcoming tessellate post, i feel like the nature of his character shines through. he's gonna make sure the people around him are taken care of but he also shows that you can still do exciting things. idk i just find his character to be endearing and falling for someone like that would be slow and well rounded.
your secret lover!
❧ okoko i do NOT condone cheating but maybe more of a fleeting yet soul-crushing lover, i'd have to pick ares. he's got a keen eye for details and sees beauty in just about everything. a musician, which is something i find to be attractive.
your friendly rival
❧ kai. i do feel like i would debate the guy over a lot of things and we would have very opposite opinions about things but i feel like we would both be fine with those differences. he's just a guy with big feelings! >,<
your enemy!
❧ you know, i've been needing to write a lot about toni lately and when you start to understand why he acts the way he does around atlas, NOT SAYING IT'S RIGHT, but it makes me recognize that he's human too... there is one character i have in mind but you guys haven't met him yet so for the sake of not spoiling it, you guys should at least be introduced to him soon in about 12-14 scenes from wednesday. now he's a pretty gnarly character -__-
i shan't do the bonus because AHH idk i don't like making others feel left out! AHHH
thank you for da ask! <3

Happy Friday / DADWC! From the 14 Days DA Lovers 2023 prompts, for your Thalia/Blackwall or Thalia/Cullen, may I submit: Frilly Cakes?
Ha, I love this! I know the "frilly cakes" thing originated with Blackwall but I went with hard mode and wrote something for Thalia/Cullen 😅
Just a lil shippy nonsense for @dadrunkwriting and @14daysdalovers
WC: 781
---
The buffet table was piled high with with pastries: elaborate tiered trays that displayed the miniature delights. They came in a variety of shapes and colors. Thalia saw square ones dolloped with creme and drizzled with chocolate, round ones crowded with raspberries and dusted with sugar, heart-shaped ones filled with lemon curd, and more. Her stomach rumbled as she stared at them from across the room, over the shoulder of yet another Orlesian diplomat. 
Her smile had been frozen on her face so long her muscles began to hurt. As soon as she bid adieu to one masked noble-person, another took the vacant spot in front of her. She shifted uncomfortably in the pinching shoes she wore under her long gown, but didn’t dare move. Even though she was starving. 
“If you’ll excuse us, Comte,” came a honeyed tenor that made her heart soar, “I’ve need of the Inquisitor for a moment.” 
Cullen appeared in front of her, looking quite fit in the scarlet and gold of the Inquisition uniform. He offered her an elbow, which she gratefully took. If the the Comte thought this behavior strange, the face behind the mask gave no indication. 
Cullen led her into a narrow room adjacent to the ballroom, chillier than the rooms being used for the fete, but quieter and dimmer as well. 
“What is it? What’s happened?” Thalia asked. 
“Ah— well, nothing, per se.” Cullen threw her a secretive smile. “You just looked like you could use a break.”
Thalia let out a relieved sigh. “I do, thank you.” She sat down on a chaise lounge and propped her feet in the air, rotating one sore ankle. “My hero.” 
“It’s the least I could do. Maker knows I’ve felt similarly, in this sea of sharks.” He strode to the ajar door, casting a furtive glance through the crack. “It should be a few minutes before they notices you’ve gone. Is there anything I can get for you?”
“Oh, I’ve been dying for a mille-feuille.” Thalia sighed. “Or perhaps a madeleine.”
A thin line appeared between Cullen’s eyebrows, accompanied by a puzzled silence. 
“One of the frilly cakes at the buffet table.” Thalia forgot, sometimes, low little Orlesian he knew. 
“Ah. Well, that shouldn’t be too hard. Wish me luck.” His grin was quite brave and dashing; it made her giggle. 
“Oh, good luck.” 
Cullen arrived back in record time, with a tiny plate with an equally tiny pastry on it. Neither a mille-feuille nor a madeleine, but it had several delicate layers of pastry and was topped with a generous portion of icing. 
“Incredible,” Thalia said, sitting up. The stay of her dress had been digging into her ribs and she wished for a pair of trousers so that she could be rid of the ridiculous obstacles known as skirts, but this was a worthy consolation. 
She took the plate from him and pressed the cake into her mouth with far less grace than befit a lady, but it was so delicious she did not care. She chewed carefully, letting out a hum of delight. “Mm, amazing. You know, Orlais might be a den of vice and backstabbing, but their food is always…” 
She trailed off, noticing the way Cullen gazed at her, with half-lidded hazel eyes and a jaw slack with desire. Thalia’s cheeks grew warm. “What is it?”
“You’ve, er, got a touch of icing, that’s all.” He motioned vaguely toward her face. 
“Oh, how unbecoming.” Thalia drew her tongue over her lips, which didn’t seem to do anything. 
“No, no, ah— may I?” 
Thalia nodded, and Cullen leaned down, drawing his thumb along the corner of her mouth. Thalia stared up at him, a thud shuddering her heart at the way he hovered, close enough for her to see his individual lashes and the stubble that clung stubbornly to his jaw. His eyes caught hers, and they froze. 
“Hi,” Thalia breathed. 
He swallowed thickly. “Hello.” He cupped her cheek and moved closer. “I didn’t get all of it. I think there’s enough here to… to…” 
“Lick?” Thalia supplied, and they both began to laugh.
“Not without your permission!” Cullen exclaimed. 
“Well,” she said, still giggling, “consider this your license to lick.”
He closed the space between them and kissed her just above the edge of her mouth. She felt the tip of his tongue touch her from between his teeth and let out a pleased chortle. She turned her face, kissing him full on the lips as the sweetness of the icing melted between them. 
“That was pretty good,” Cullen murmured when they parted. 
“The cake or the licking?” Thalia teased. 
“Please,” Cullen said, turning bright red. “I’m embarrassed enough as it is.”

14 Days of DA Lovers Day
I have not seen anything about a 2024 14 Days of Dragon Age Lovers, but I never finish the full lists so I still have some of the previous two years to do.
14 Days of Dragon Age Lovers
Prompt: Captured
For @14daysdalovers writing prompts :D
Pairing: Cassandra Pentghast (Divine) x Solas
Rating: G
I'm having a blast just writing short scenes and poem-ish things this year
The portrait in the Divine's private chambers wasn’t overly large. The frame was lacking in the anticipated frivolity of the Orlesian styles, but patient hands had shaped its form. The glass was crystalline clear and gifted from Serault, sparkling softly as candle light flickers. The figure contained within the delicately carved frame, when inquired upon, was always explained with a soft, half smile and a slight blush upon the Divine’s cheeks.
Captured by a well intentioned, but still learning hand, the elven man is dozing beneath the canopy of a myrtle. Auburn lashes delicately drawn upon softly flushed cheeks. An attempt at dappled shadows cast him in a delicate light, the slightest of smiles upon his lips. A spall scar mars his brow, but the man upon that canvas seems all the more breathtaking for it.
“He is the Haven I seek when the woes of the people and the clamoring of the Chantry gets to be too much.” She’ll say, eyes gazing upon the picture with tenderness.
“You endeavor to do too much, no mere mortal can shoulder all of their woes.” A husky impression that sets her to fits of giggles, surprising whomever is graced her with normally stoic presence.

Dragging Frankenstein - Chapter 21
The one where I get immeasurably sick of Victor! I mentioned the capslock-yelling? It begins here.
You know I can’t stand Victor, so I’m happy if he’s inconvenienced. But he and the Creature can hardly be the only people who canoe around there, can they?
Also, the “handsome young man, about five and twenty years of age” – is everyone gay here? DAS GAY: 35
And if poor Henry’s body was not yet cold and they thought they could still revive him, did the Creature bring him over to Ireland alive to kill him there? How???
“The first part of this deposition did not in the least interest me” -.- Victor is such a twat. Someone is dead? Whatevs, don’t care! IT’S ALL ABOUT ME: 25
He gets another one right away because even Henry’s death is just cause for another self-centered whinefest. “the agonies that I endured”, yeah, sure. IT’S ALL ABOUT ME: 26
I find this line highly interesting: “Death snatches away many blooming children […], how many brides and youthful lovers…” So. Children, brides, lovers. William, Elizabeth, Henry, nah? DAS GAY: 36
“Of what materials was I made, that I could resist so many shocks?” This right there. This is the good shit. Victor is more and more estranged from his own human nature, speaking of himself in the same terms that can be used for his Creature.
Then it’s two months angst coma, and when he wakes up, of course he complains about the lacking luxury IN FUCKING PRISON WHEN HE’S IN FOR MURDER, VICTOR. Sorry. I hate him. I SO PRIVILEGED: 12
“and [the nurse’s] countenance expressed all the bad qualities which often characterized that class.” AAAAAARRRRGGHHH! *jumps up and strangles Victor* I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU, YOU PHYSIOGNOMIST-BULLSHIT SPEWING, LOATHSOME, CONCEITED, JUDGY, SHALLOW, SNOB TWIT!! HOW DARE YOU LOOK DOWN ON A WOMAN WHO PUT IN ALL THE TIME OF HER DAY TO KEEP YOU ALIVE WHEN YOU ARE USELESSLY LYING AROUND BEING A BRAINLESS PIECE OF FLESH, A STRANGER IN THIS COUNTRY, AND ASSUMED TO BE A MURDERER!!! DIE!!
*ahem* Count? I SO PRIVILEGED: 13
And then she’s also indifferent. Can you believe that. How dare she not pity Victor appropriately; his life is so haaaaard.
“I turned with loathing from the woman who could utter so unfeeling a speech” – dude, 1st, she literally just agreed with what you said, and 2nd, she’s perfectly polite. I can’t with him.
“careless” and “brutality”, what is with him? He was fed. And medicated. Through a coma. Of two months. She probably wiped his ass in the meantime! Jesus Christ with this guy.
“Mr Kirwin had shown me extreme kindness”, best room and all, easy-peasy. I SO PRIVILEGED: 14
I’m so spiteful right now, I want to give him another one for complaining that Mr. Kirwin is not permanently fluttering around him and “wretched indeed was the best”. What an incredible snob. Read the room, for once.
“Can I do anything to make you more comfortable?” Mr. Kirwin, crawl out of his ass for a second there, will you? Zero respect for that guy, too.
“on the whole earth there is no comfort which I am capable of receiving.” – then why won’t you stop complaining about your accommodation?
“doubtless, evidence can easily be brought to free you from your criminal charge.” – considering the circumstances in which Henry and Victor were found, it should be about as flimsy as the evidence for his guilt. What even is this case?
“a friend has come to visit you” Urgh. Dude, just spare us the dead herring and SAY right away that it’s his father; I hate it when Victor gets excuses to spew paranoia around. As if the Creature would officially speak to people in broad daylight and all that to come visit Victor in prison. Has Victor lost his last brain cell during the angst coma?
…and Victor hops right from “wah, take him away!” to “why does he not hasten to me?” in an instant. Whew, I hate this brat. IT’S ALL ABOUT ME: 27
me-me-me-me-me! Sorry, this recap is getting exceptionally salty.
I’m wondering why the magistrate treats him like a child. Isn’t Victor the same age as Henry, aka obviously an adult? Eh, but that’s picked up by Frankenstein sr. Gotta baby the baby a bit.
“…and Elizabeth, and Ernest?” – Ernest? Oh yeah, that guy! He sure is a person that exists! He’s so important for his family, isn’t he? Good, dear Ernest.
More whining, complaints that he actually has to sit through a trial, would you believe the audacity of these people…
“proved that I was on the Orkney Islands when the body of my friend was found” ??? How’d they do that? Victor was completely isolated; he wasn’t talking to anyone. Who could have professed his presence anywhere at any time at all? Eh, convenience.
Shelley seriously calls Henry’s eyes “dark orbs”. I blame her purple-prose husband, and wanna bitchslap him for it. What is he, My Immortal’s author?
Also, can you stop gushing about your dead boyfriend’s beautiful eyelashes? DAS GAY: 37
Geez.
“My father tried to awaken in me the feelings of affection.” – Heh, good luck. As if Victor would feel for his fellow humans. IT’S ALL ABOUT ME: 28
“At these moments I often endeavoured to put an end to the existence I loathed” – good. Do it.
“to watch over the lives of those I so fondly loved” – I don’t believe you. You don’t care, so I won’t.
“put an end to the existence of the monstrous Image which I had endued with the mockery of a soul still more monstrous” – first of all, word-for-word repetition of phrasing. Second of all, this. DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR: 16
As if.
“I was a mere skeleton” – poor Elizabeth; that wouldn’t have been a fun wedding night even without the visitor.
He’s also laudanum-addicted now. I found it tragic with Emil Behring. It only makes me roll my eyes at Victor and go, “of course the little wimp does that, too.”
If there weren’t a ton of kind people around him, he never would have survived till now.
With his third victim, the Creature has apparently acquired a taste for killing Anyone But Victor, and isn't that just super convenient. Wouldn't it be a much more apt demonstration of power to set an end to his creator's existence, seeing as he owes his miserable existence to him? A life given, a life taken. Sounds way more logical to me than killing a ton of innocents. But then again, this fits right in with how Victor considers those close to him only as extensions of himself - he's a true narcissist that way. William dies? Oh, how Victor suffers! Justine gets killed? Oh, how bad that makes Victor feel! Elizabeth is depressed? Well, it can only be on Victor's behalf! And the Creature buys right into it, God bless. Good that at least he doesn't have a family.

hap friiiii "A letter with a broken seal; the wax is stamped with a familiar symbol" for Cullen/Amaryllis??
thank you Rooooooo
I'm not super in love with how I ended this, but I'm schleepy and I have to work tomorrow lol so here is Lis reading some poems Cullen wrote her years ago and laughing at how cute her husband is. (I wrote all of the atrocious poems--the last was written for 14 Days of DA Lovers last year. I just used it again because I liked it lol)
For @dadrunkwriting
Rating: G
WC: 700~
***
With a snap of her finger, Amaryllis lights the candle. She pulls her shawl tighter around her shoulders and takes a step into the room, grimacing at the sharp pain that shoots up her ankles as her bare feet touch the floor. Should have put on my socks, she laments silently. But it was too late to go back. She wouldn’t risk waking him, not after the long day he’d had. 
She walks to the trunk in the corner, beside the writing desk. Taking to her knees, she pries it open, releasing the clasps gently as to not make noise. She rests the top against the wall, then brings the candle closer, squinting into the dark. The last time she had touched them, she had placed them beneath the box of inkwells–
There, she finds them. She holds them to her chest, then rushes to the sofa, sliding the candle atop the table in front of her. Amaryllis pulls the throw blanket from the back, curling up in it as she undoes the ties around them.
The first, as the rest, is embossed with the broken image of the lion’s helm, so very familiar to her now. She could draw a perfect copy of it with her eyes closed, she thinks, and with her left hand, too. 
Sliding her finger beneath the broken seal, she opens it.
Dear Amaryllis, it reads.
She smiles. She knows them by heart now, so skips through the niceties for the thing she looks forward to most.
You told me you like poetry, he wrote. So I thought I’d try my hand at it, if only to one day impress you, or to see you laugh at my foolishness.
She had laughed at him, and still did, but not for his foolishness–she had never found him to be foolish. Silly, maybe, was a better choice. 
His first attempt never failed to make her smile.
Roses are red, 
Violets are blue,
Please come back soon, 
I may perish without you.
Stifling a laugh, she lays the first to the side, then opens the next. 
I’ve been informed that poetry need not always rhyme. This, I’m not quite sure I understand, but nevertheless, I will try. For you.
On the battlements we stood,
On a cold winter’s night,
Side by side, I felt your warmth,
And while you gazed at the stars,
I gazed at mine.
Laying it atop the last, she opens another. This one she knows she shouldn’t read, because she can’t stop herself from snorting, almost dropping the parchment in her haste to slap a hand over her mouth.
Shall I compare thine eyes to a leather strop?
Thy hair to the mud upon my brow?
No, I shall not,
Because I have been informed,
That I could not have written something worse,
Or far less flattering,
Than a comparison to mud.
His attempt at humor, he had said, though she knew better now more than ever. She remembered arriving home to Skyhold, pulling him in for a kiss and a laugh, only for Dorian to shake his head, throwing up his hands. She had no taste, no taste at all, he’d said. 
Next is her favorite. The poem he had gifted her on the night of their wedding.
A heart is a 
precious thing,  
as much as love is
the sun rising from its bed,
to grace us with its warmth.
A heart is a 
priceless thing,
as much as a family is,
a home is,
a child is.
Priceless.
A heart is a 
joyous thing.
It is not made whole at birth.
No, it is built,
piece by piece,
by the touch of your hand,
the lines of your smile,
the feel of you,
soft
and whole.
You are
the pieces of my heart, and
you are
the reason behind my smile, and 
you are
my joyous,
my priceless,
my precious thing.
The door creaks open behind her, and Amaryllis drops her letters, startled.
“Lis,” Cullen whispers. His curls are mussed, sticking straight up in the back. He tries to rub the sleep from his eyes but fails as he sways where he stands. “What’re you doing?”
“I couldn’t sleep.”
“...it’s cold.”
“I know,” she whispers back. “Do you want me to stoke the fire?”
“No,” his voice is stronger this time. He blinks hard once, twice, then frowns. “Come back to bed?”
“I’ll be right there.”
