fall into place

A/N: HI POOKIE! im obsessed w ur energy and i would do anything for u, this sounds so cute hope u like it 😋

Pairing: Jonathan Byers x Fem!Reader

Summary: Jonathan comes home to find you fully adopted into the Byers’ daily routine. When did that happen? 1.3k words.

Warnings: fluff, domesticity, cringe 80s references, mike being annoying, KISSING, pet names (baby, heartthrob)

The front door slamming shut rattles the frame of the house, but nobody seems to care over the ruckus. Jonathan drops his messenger bag by the bench in the foyer, shucking his shoes and skirting to the kitchen. Joyce flips through a fashion catalog by the phone with her thumb nail perched between her lips.

"She's in El's room," Joyce says while Jonathan swipes an unopened juice pouch off the counter and tucks a pack of toaster strudel under his arm. There's an uproar in the other room from the usual teenage suspects. He's about to make his way upstairs when his mom chuckles.

"Oh, hi, mom, how was your day?" Joyce teases, "Thanks for asking, Jonathan. It was lovely, I bought you those juice pouches and toaster pastries you like. How was yours?" She cocks a brow, and he peeks back into the kitchen.

"Love you, mom."

"Love you, too. Oh, also it's fend night. There are some leftovers and dinners in the freezer. Your brother was craving frozen pizza."

"Sounds good!" he shouts, already halfway up the stairs and down the hall. The cassette deck on El's desk sings something tinny and youthful and he's pretty sure she has it cranked to full volume. You're perched at the foot of her bed with your fingers looping the fluffy strands of her hair into a criss-cross plait. You look over and smile, leaning into the kiss he plants on your cheek.

"Hi," you coo.

"Hi, baby," he says with a lazy smile across his face. "My room?"

"In a sec."

El tuts, "she's braiding my hair." You chuckle, tying off the end of her braid with a sparkly, blue elastic you nabbed from the bottom of the bathroom drawer. He tips the straw of his juice to your lips, and you hum and pat the top of El's head just before hopping to your feet and fleeing the room with Jonathan's hand in yours.

"Thank you!" she calls, but you both know you'd do it for her anytime.

He falls back onto his springy mattress, and you straddle his hips, pry the decadent box from his grasp, and triumphantly fish out a strudel.

"I didn't know Mike was visiting this week," you mumble through a mouthful of pastry.

"Yeah, their spring breaks lined up." Jonathan chugs the rest of his fruit cocktail, crushing the pouch and setting it on his bedside table alongside the discarded pastry box. Then he recoils, nose scrunching: "You met mike?"

You nod, nibbling the strudel in half and pressing bite-sized piece to his mouth, swiping away the stray crumbs that sprinkle his shirt. "It's cinnamon," you whisper. He hums.

"Was he weird?" he worries.

"Only a little," you tease, sweeping his hair off his forehead and leaning down to press a damp kiss to the open space.

"He's a punk."

You shrug. "Only a little."

You split the last piece of pastry between you, making sure you get an even amount of filling and frosting before clinking the edges and popping them into your mouths.

"What were you and El listening to?" he asks.

"Make it big. You know Wham. 'I don't want your freeeeedom!'" you mock, squeaking out the iconic high note, "Mike got it for her."

"Sounded... contemporary," he chuckles, setting his palms into the curve of your hips, hooking his thumbs in the loops of your jeans.

"Yeah, I think she has a thing for George Michael. We've been listening to it on repeat." Your stretch your arms over your head with a yawn.

"He is pretty cute," Jonathan teases.

"Yeah, well," you say with all the casualty of a partly cloudy Wednesday afternoon, "Not as cute as you."

He scoffs, sitting up with you still balanced in his lap. “Shut up,” he huffs.

“No!” You grin and lean in close, mumbling, “heartthrob,” in a kiss to his lips. When you pull back he stares softly into your eyes.

“How long have you been here?”

“My shift ended at two so,” you say, “since then. Why? You tryin’ to send me home, Byers?”

“No,” he whispers, he wouldn’t dream of it, “No, I like that you’re here when I get home.”

You chuckle and drape your arm over his shoulder. “That’s very domestic of you.”

“God, I know”—he rolls his eyes, pressing his palms flat to your back and smiling coyly—“Wait ‘til uou hear how glad I am that everyone likes you so much. And that you like them, too. Even when they’re fucking crazy.”

You peck the corner of his mouth gently, willing a smile to creep across his face.

“I fit right in, don’t I?” you tease. But he doesn’t laugh, enamored by everything you say and do. His fingertips just graze your cheek and his eyes flick down to your mouth.

He sighs. “Like our missing puzzle piece.”

“Yeah,” you reason, “like the piece that gets knocked onto the floor to collect dust for ten years until someone's sweeping and randomly unwedges it from the floorboards only to realize it's from the puzzle they gave away last week.”

“No, more like,” he chuckles, “like the one stuck to the underside of the lid that you only find once youre putting the deconstructed puzzle away.”

You giggle, tilting your head back. Then you sigh, whipping your head back to stare into his eyes, foreheads pressed together.

“Maybe we’re all missing puzzle pieces,” he suggests. It’s whispered. Like it’s a secret and you two are the only ones who will ever know the truth.

You nod. “Oh, we definitely are. Five billion lonely little puzzle pieces waiting for our lost portrait.” Your fingers twirl a lock of his hair, and he holds back a splitting grin. “I can’t believe we’re having this conversation sober.”

He cackles, holding your lower back as he leans slightly. “Wait,” he says, “you’re sober?” You smack his chest, chuckling when he hollers, “I’m kidding! I’m kidding, you're the only person worth getting high with anymore since Argyle's in Utah.”

You pout facetiously, sticking out your lower lip with your brows knitting. “Jonny! So romantic!”

“Yeah, yeah, natural as riding a bike,” he teases. You smile and lean in to kiss him, and he meets your lips sweetly. You pull away and peck the corner of his mouth then his cheek before your doe eyes flick up to his. Your mouth opens to say something, but Mike bursts into the room.

“Ew, gross, at least close the door if you’re going to suck face!”

You turn over your shoulder with a scowl. “You close the door, we’re obviously busy.”

“I don’t even know you!” Mike scoffs.

You hop up and jump to the door wildly, about to slam it just as you squint and say, “Then you’ve got a lot to learn, sonny.”

But before you can close it, Will peeks into the conversation and offers, “C’mon, let’s be diplomatic, people! Mom says come eat and watch Nightmare on Elm Street.”

“Mister Kreugs again?” you say, “Yes, please!” You high-five Will, and he shuffles down the stairs. Mike and El follow. You turn back to see Jonathan lounging back on his bed, eyes closed and just barely smiling to himself.

“Coming, heartthrob?”

“Yeah,” he says, blinking awake, head lulling to gaze at you, “don’t wait up.”

But you run back anyway, grabbing his hand and tugging him to his feet.

“Too bad,” you whisper, giving him a consolation kiss. You get him to the bottom of the stairs before he pulls you back against him right on the last step. He kisses you sweetly and with a smile.

Will shouts from the living room, “Okay, I’m usually pretty tolerant, but please no making out during horror night!”

You chuckle, still holding Jonathan’s hand with his arm lazily around your waist. “Okay, fine. Only because you asked nicely.”

You look back to find Jonathan already staring at you. It still makes you nervous or excited or something. He’s holding you so close, and you can’t help but kiss him one last time.

INTRODUCING MY FURRY GUYS I GUESS. OR WHATEVER.

Kicking off this account I guess with a selection of (at this point, quite old) Toyhouse icons I did of my miscellaneous OC’s. All from basically the same universe, but some of them may be part of different unrelated stories from one another

Below the cut, I’ll give a super brief description of my main OC stories and who each character is is.

—————————————— I have three or four story projects in active/current development at the present, but I’ll introduce the two most developed ones.

My main one is currently in need of a new title, but it’s a horror dramedy / murder mystery. about my fictional band with the tremendously on-the-nose name Dead Celebrities— whose rise to fame also coincides with a series of strange murders of several other prominent musicians in town. The story basically revolves around the members of the band trying to deduce who may be responsible for the killings, all while trying to stay alive themselves. The further they investigate, not only do they begin suspect one of their own may be the culprit, but that said culprit may be involved with even more sinister forces than they could have imagined.

My second one is called The Devil You Know, which revolves around the lead protagonist Nico who aspires to be a famous rock musician, but feels stifled by his chronic ailments and lack of skill. Through a boredom induced ouija board mishap, he finds himself summoning a demon who makes a deal with him to grant him otherworldly musical skill— unfortunately this leads to said demon possessing Nico, so now he must live with the experience of having the world’s worst roommate and a parasite wrapped up all in one ancient evil entity.

——————————————

As for the individual characters, I’ll introduce each in picture order from left to right.

1 / JESSE: Grumpy, broody, moody guitarist for an 80’s rock / heavy metal band called Dead Celebrities. Deep down very kind and sensitive despite what his aloof, offputting demeanor may indicate. Many wild town rumors circulate around him due to his mysterious nature, all of which are far more interesting than his actual life. Main protagonist of my murder mystery story. Also the main one trying to investigate the murders.

2 / CHERRY: One of Jesse’s best friends and member of Dead Celebrities’ rival band called Lost Daughters. A sarcastic spitfire and also her band’s lead singer. Is basically everyone’s wise older sister… even if she’s a bit smug about it sometimes. Part of the murder mystery story.

3 / PINK: Part of a story somewhat unrelated to the two I mentioned. His story takes place in the late 2000’s-early 2010’s. Former teen heartthrob kid’s sitcom actor turned somewhat washed up emo singer and social media personality. Has been cancelled every week for the past several years. Has made multiple YouTube apology videos. He’s kind of a fuckboy asshole (but he does redeem himself somewhat)

4/ WILEY: Weirdo bassist for Dead Celebrities and armchair paranormal expert. Professionally mentally ill, couch surfs and does odd jobs for income. Freaks out his roommates by doing seances in the apartment. Part of the murder mystery story. Is Donnie’s older half-brother.

5/ MEPHISTOPHELES: Demon. Nico’s parasite. Will drink all your pepsi and call you a bitch. Is the eternal spirit of a former musician. Part of the The Devil You Know story.

6/ DONNIE: Dorky rhythm guitarist and occasional keyboardist for Dead Celebrities. Painfully earnest and sweet. Has an unrequited crush on Jesse. Chronic nervous wreck but overcompensates with extreme friendliness. Overcaffeinated, sleep-deprived med school student. Part of the murder mystery story. Is Wiley’s little half-brother.

7/ EDDIE: Dead Celebrities’ drummer and casanova extraordinaire. Good with the business side of the band stuff. Gregarious, excitable, goofy personality. Really having fun with the whole rock-star persona thing. Think Jack Black type vibes. He’s also Cherry’s boyfriend. Part of the murder mystery story.

8/ RIOT: Part of a story partially connected to the murder mystery one. Goofy himbo glam metal party boy who don’t want nothin’ but a good time. Clinically oblivious.

9/ NICO: Perpetually anxious, poorly socialized shut-in with chronic illness and barely any exposure to the outside world. Craves a change of pace in the form of fame, but unfortunately a deal with a demon to gain said musical prowess resulting in said evil entity taking up partial residence in his body wasn’t the kind of shake-up he was wanting. Not to mention, the effects of acute demon possession have been taking a serious toll on his health… Part of the The Devil You Know story.

Something that’s coming up for me studying older work and writing retrofuture (because my characters deal with many personal and cultural issues that were current to the discourse of Boomers) is that in older work I watch and read, on the whole (I can’t be specific, this is just a feeling/vague pattern match) women actually used to be thirstier and also more openly romantic.

I honestly don’t think women in Hayes Code work are as coy as 80s women and on are. 40s-60s love stories often don’t have the same stalker vibes as 80s-90s do. You see the chemistry. You don’t see them fuck, sure, but you know they WANT to. You believe she wants him. I have no trouble reading the body language and interest of women in older films.

And as things get more explicit, you see women - with their men - being more openly touchy-feely in their interactions with the male body (running fingers through the chest hair is SUCH a 70s sex trope).

You see men being positioned for female consumption. Women had their favorite heartthrobs and they’re positioned in a more sexualized way than ours were, damn you see so many ripped shirts.

It seems like, in older works, men sell sex, not just women. The big consumer via the images on TV - is a bored housewife.

then some time around the 80s and on, it changes. We start to get into “bunny boiler” imagery and social messaging that women are supposed to be coy. And I suspect that the visibility of easier sex is part of this, women are fighting to not be seen as perpetually sexually available. Part of the fallout of the Sexual Revolution having actually older roots than the women’s rights movement and push toward the ERA.

Now women have to be more reserved while more sexually aggressive men are still a strong norm. The woman has to have plausible deniability about being sexually available, not a slut.

which lends to the stalking-is-love trope

which I don’t see NEARLY as much of in older work

SHINICHIRO HEADCANONS

an: im really busy rn but this man has been on my mind lately 24/7, so there we go

— He loves music from the 80s. It doesn't matter where the song comes from, he vibes with it.

— He wasn't the most respectful person towards girls while he was a teen, but he changed a lot when Emma started to grow up. He began to look at things with a different perspective, realizing that he must have made more than one girl feel uncomfy.

— When he's drunk, he starts to tell his friends how amazing they are.

— I know it's canon, but he's good with kids, and he likes kids. Definitely has dreams about starting a family.

— Talking about kids, he loves spending time with Manjiro He complains a lot about him, but when he hasn't heard from him for 1 hour, he starts to get worried.

— One time when he was picking up Mikey and Emma from school, he flirted with a single mother. His siblings were gagging at the sight.

— Lost his virginity when he was 21. The girl was his first girlfriend. They both had fun and were laughing the whole time.

— He's bi: he likes women and Wakasa. He came to the conclusion after trying to flirt with him one night at the bar (realizing later that the lady with nice eyelashes was actually his friend).

— He met Inui one day he was walking to his shop and saw the blonde looking at the bikes with sparkles in his eyes. He asked him if he wanted to come in and watch the bikes closer and Seishu nodded. Once they were inside, Shinichiro started to work feeling Inupi's eyes on him through the entire process of fixing a bike. Weeks later, Inui started to ask him questions about motors and stuff, and Shin realized that the guy was actually a fast learner. A friendship was born.

— He loves sitcoms.

— When his Black Dragon era was over, he intended to keep his hairstyle, only for Emma to tell him if he was planning to die without a wife. Needless to say, he changed his hair a week later.

— His eating habits are really bad, and Emma always tries to include vegetables on his meals without him noticing.

— He started to smoke really young.

— When Emma started to go out with her friends, he always picked her up from wherever she was. And if her friends, needed a ride home, he was up to it. He wasn't successful with girls of his age, but with 13 y/o girls? An absolute heartthrob.

— His love language is physical contact (and quality time!).

— Before he goes on a date, he needs the outfit approval made by Inupi and Emma.

— He is a good person. But sometimes he is way too selfless.

[naamahdarling]

did the blorbo grow from a seed or did he pop into existence fully fledged and ready to be obsessed over?

does he run around in your mind shouting at you or does he sit quietly and wait for you to utilize him

Gowan at ~22 | Gowan at 47 | Gowan's ass at ~24

Oh, he is SO LOUD. It's so bad.

I love him so much, I want Every Excuse to talk about him so thanks for giving me one.

So Gowan's story, and I want to lead with it so you know where it wound up before I tell you where it started, is for a TTRPG space western campaign. It's a rags to riches story that involves a queer ADHD mess being swept off his swampy hellworld at 20 to become a genius fiddle-playing boy band heartthrob, being genetically modified in embarrassing ways like having iridescent hair, falling for his angel-voiced manufactured rival, ditching his contract over nonconsensual dentistry, evading an assassination attempt, and returning to his hellworld to sleep off this fever dream working in the family bar. Now 15-odd years later, he's very middle-aged, and shit's gotten really fucking bad: his swamp is poisoned, his hometown is being starved out by the company, he fucked things up with his boyfriend...and he's dying of a rare but terminal disease. So despite not being combat-oriented, and being at heart a genuinely good man, he's gearing up to go hunt some space trillionaires for sport. When everything is burning down around you and you have always been the prince of bad decisions, why not go out in a blaze of glory achieving something almost as meaningful as loving and being loved by your fans? Something that will make a difference...and get you remembered...forever.

After all, the Devil is the hero of his own story.

I like it. It's ridiculous, dramatic, meaningful, three things you need for a good TTRPG character. He's got a lot of depth because I've been working on him for over a year behind the scenes.

Now, where that started? I need you to understand that this is ACUTELY embarrassing to me.*

I main Zane in Borderlands 3 because I love his '80s cyberpunk space western vibe and his (bad?) Irish accent. A friend who knows me way too well saw that I'd customized him in horrendous eye-searing neon colors and said "That's gonna be your tabletop character for the space western campaign I'm going to run lol!" and I said "FUCK."

But how to give a narrative origin for this middle-aged man's atrocious Lisa Frank aesthetic? Immediately I thought ex boy band turned mercenary, and while none of that stuck exactly, it was nevertheless all I needed to get going.

He hasn't shut up since.

This is his cat:

* It shouldn't be, but I cannot shake the TREMENDOUS fuckor of being so accurately targeted by my ex.

[invaderarizona]

Bruce x Brandy is the better version of Zipper x Gadget

Not only Bruce and Brandy gives me the Donkey x Dragon or Vortex x Beelzebee vibes but they’re actually the better versions of Zipper x Gadget, since they’re married mixed speacies couples that involves small husbands and giant wives with over 10 children.

But the biggest difference between them is that Bruce and Brandy actually makes more sense than them because their speacies are based off on toys (since he’s a troll doll and she’s a hand doll like puppet).

Not only that but before they met, when he was a heartthrob and used to flirt with every girls around. There was a background picture of him going out on a date with the Smidge look alike (which I’m just gonna assume that’s her mom instead of sister) and he seems to be uncomfortable with it (implying that deep down inside, he never entirely love the women he flirts or go out with due to not being his perfect match and whatever reasons, Brandy probably has something that none of the girls have, I bet they have the same reason for why Jessica chose Roger more than any hot guys she used to go out with). After they got married, when they have kids, not only they look so adorably normal but theorizing that Bruce is the one who gives birth to his children actually makes even more sense. Because so far, we don’t know how Vacay landers along with Rageons giving birth yet but we do know that trolls gives birth by popping the eggs out of their hair and so far it seems like both genders are treated equally (at least so far). Besides there is a theory that Brandy maybe trans coded (since I found out that her voice actress is actually a trans woman) so it makes even sense in case if it’s confirmed that the females are the ones who give birth normally in vacy island.

Meanwhile for Gadget and Zipper, they literally have no heart in their relationship. It’s rather soulless, still no build up nor even hints reasons before, they look disgusting together and their children are the ugliest hybrids I’ve ever seen. It doesn’t make sense for Gadget to be the one who gives birth, since flys gives birth by laying eggs and mice don’t lay eggs, they give birth normally like hamsters. This would’ve make sense if either Zipper was trans, the children being adopted or just some egg donor from some random fly character but nope, this is somehow canon for Gadget being the one who lays eggs and it’s probably the 80’s Fly horror movies reference (seriously that nightmare scene where Veronica finds out that she’s pregnant becomes even more real in the sequel). Thanks to that disgusting theory and one of Disney’s stupid decisions to give the childhood fans a middle finger, now it makes Gadget look even more unattractive and definitely not cute to think about that birth theory.

[auseyre]

Finally figured out my issue with Prapai, and why I just roll my eyes when he's on-screen when I actually liked him in the short scenes in the Payu/Rain section. Other than the obvious coerced consent/stalker issues, obvs.

In his own section he has a smarmy heartthrob vibe that is very 80s. Think Robert Downey Jr in the Pick Up Artist, Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Rob Lowe, and James Spader in pretty much everything. I mean it’s definitely a vibe and James Spader needs to call me, but I was not sad about the 90s moving to a more kinda goofy yet sincere romantic lead.

On the other hand

She is everything. She also needs to call me.

Hiii hope babysitting is goin good

What kind of clothes do each of your characters wear? Like what’s their go-to/favorite outfit? Totally not asking this so I can make fanart haha don’t be silly

I'm drenched wet like a sad cat because I had to wrestle the kid into the shower, but otherwise it's going great 😂

Fanart you say?? Fanaaaart (explodes) 💛💛💛💛💛💛

In detail:

Bella: The one with the most distinctive style, especially now she no longer has an uptight university job. Fishnets, big combat boots, black mini skirt or jeans shorts, ratty crop tops, band t-shirts, black sports bra and some see through mesh blouse. Just imagine you searched "grunge" on pinterest. Add a big mop of curly auburn hair and obligatory Adele eyeliner. Bella has only 1 hole in her ear and she's normally wearing silver jewelry (small studs), she wears many rings but no bracelets and her nails aren't long (she types all day). If she's forced to do formal wear, she'll be in plain black and embrace the Addams family vibes.

Wendy: GIRLY. Whimsy! FUN! Mid flowy skirts, dresses with ruffles and layers and floral prints, beautiful strappy heels, 80s pop music t-shirts coupled with pink jeans. Funky earrings, bracelets, rings. Glittery nail polish. Mini dresses. She's got chin length brown wavy hair and her sense of style is very Barbie-coded, but she does manage to tone it down for more serious situations, so she doesn't look like a Barbie cosplay.

Vince: Dark wash ripped jeans, black tank top or graphic t-shirts (deep V neck), sometimes a button up, black leather jacket (with the belts and buckles, it's for Style) or his varsity football jacket. Worn hiker boots. Not many accessories because he can't be bothered. If it's warm out he'll be in large jeans shorts and flip flops, he simply cannot be assed.

Leo: Boy-Next-Door extreme. Baby blue jeans, light colored t-shirts with a crew neck, hanging on his frame a little loose. Almost never wears patterns. Leo is still finding so much of his identity and he got bullied for being queer, so he's a little stick in the mud when it comes to style. The less he stands out, the better. Worn converse shoes, will often commit the sin of wearing jeans on jeans. His jeans jacket is his favorite and he'll wear it 4 days a week if needed. Also he wears his team hoodie a lot and he'll wear the jacket on top of the hoodie, much to Jonah's displeasure. For work he's always in suits and button ups, again in the most boring shades and combos.

Lucas: His the son of a heartthrob musician. Lucas knows how to dress with style, he just won't. Very similar to Leo's, except add in a lot of university apparel, team shirts, the varsity jacket and those gym-bro tank tops with armholes so huge a man might as well be wearing nothing.

Jonah: Snob. You know he splurges in silk shirts, he's in social pants 90% of the time. Polo shirts, henleys, cable knit sweaters, formal shoes or vans sneakers, polished clean. Always ironed. Wears deep jewel tones a lot, they bring out the hazel in his eyes. If he's in jeans, they're medium wash and never ripped. Will wear a cardigan and cause Leo to seriously consider not going out with him.

I was going thru music videos (as you do) and the way Luis Miguel looks in this one kinda gave me you vibes

https://youtu.be/yG7MPEQm1-w

ok bye

I really don't know where I would be without the gender euphoria I get from you telling me I look like various 80's latin pop heartthrobs, thank you so much 😭❤️

Step Out in Style by Wearing that Sweatshirt Right

 Do you know that you have a secret weapon in your wardrobe?

We are talking about the classic sweatshirt here.

Anything that has ruled the style quotient for more than five decades makes an entry to become the most popular menswear of all time. A sweatshirt can be worn by men of all ages; to flaunt that heartthrob style or to showcase that ageless style.

A sweatshirt when paired right can transform your complete style. It has a casual, but chic athletic vibe to it.

A sweatshirt for men is seasonless and can be worn by men with any body shape.  Above all, it is quite easy to layer, and this is why it is a genuine outfit found in every man's wardrobe.

So, how to wear that sweatshirt right? Let us have a look.

Time to Dress it up

Pick a neutral-colored sweatshirt, without any print or a logo on it, and pair it up with white sneakers and chinos. You can even pair a clean-cut sweatshirt with selvage denim and casual shoes like a loafer.

If you want to rock that casual yet formal look, pair it up with a coat. Though most sweatshirts for men go well with casual suits, you can look stunning by wearing a bomber jacket or just layering it with a formal overcoat. Take it to the next level by using a jacket or an overcoat with a traditional houndstooth check print.

Try to Dress it down

If you are not a fan of layering and prefer wearing sweatshirts as loungewear, pick a few oversized ones in neutral shades. You can even try sweatshirts with huge logos or in block colors as the style is pretty much "in" this season.

Such sweatshirts can be styled with a jogger or even jeans for that casual, comfortable look. If you are good to try a bold style, you can pair a sweatshirt with a logo with a tracksuit, and finish the look with sliders.

The Classic Grey Sweatshirt

The common sweatshirt that can be found in the wardrobe of almost every man is a classic grey sweatshirt. One need not put a lot of effort into styling this. Just pair it up with white sneakers and chinos or selvage denim. Just this and it will look like you have made a lot of effort into this. This is indeed a perfect outfit for a loungewear or weekend picnic.

Sweatshirts with Big Logos

Do you know that sweatshirts gained a lot of popularity when sports teams from universities wore them to proudly showcase their allegiance? Designers today are doing something similar.

With the wide variety of styles available, you can pick one for that bold streetwear look, or choose with your favorite brand logo and show your love by flaunting your pictures on Instagram.

Sweatshirts with Short Sleeves

Have you ever tried sweatshirts with short sleeves? Well, if you haven't, it is time you give them a try. It is easy to find sweatshirts with short sleeves in two styles. One of them would be the 80s oversized style and the other which has sleeves that resemble a Japanese Kimono.

These sweatshirts are much similar to the others on the list, but the ones with short sleeves bare your forearms.

These work like a charm if you have a toned body, and these can be paired with joggers or denim. However, make sure to pick one in a neutral or a natural tone.

Now that you know a little about styling the sweatshirt, it is time to take out that magic weapon from the corners of your wardrobe and step out in style.Article Source: https://maniaclife.com/blogs/news/step-out-in-style-by-wearing-that-sweatshirt-right

Ok i have a silly self indulgent au ideas.

They are called character pov aus. They are where you are now in the character in question's place. So i.e. pov au: you are now protecting earthrealm as a god in raiden place. Now you are in raidens pov. How would you handle it? What would you do differently? Etc.

So i made a fun Johnny cage pov au. Where I'm in Johnny cages place. So I'm a Hollywood heartthrob actress trying my best to survive mortal kombat. Trying to prove my prowess as a fighter. And make sense of the crazy. Pretty simple. (AS IT SHOULD BE WITH JC!)

The only difference besides it being well self insert pov. Sonya is a good friend not a lover. Liu is a crush,lao is a crush, Actually Jenny crushes on a lot of people ok. That never really changed. But not sonya. She's a friend. Kitana tho? Perhaps.

Oh and shang tsung you ask? Well he doesn't change much. Same ol sneky man. But he gets some time to show more of his martial arts mastery. And is a tad bit well nicer considering. Maybe a bit flirtatious. Maybe a crush.

Master boyd also LIVES! (For a bit longer that is. Or at least we get see more of him before shang tsung "illkays" him)

Tired to get that 80s/90s cali vibe. Tattoos too (cuz I'm extra ok?)

Rose gold,purple n pink neon. Foo-dog elements and kneepads.

Sunset aviator shades. Hell yeah.

Jenny cage is ready to show her glow. (Which i had start as pink/purple,than blue,then green,then gold/white. To show growth. Also btw the powers come from the natural chi/qi within. Not some ancient bloodline plot device. Nope. All natural non gmo)

And yes. Raiden is still sassy. And is still a tired dad trying hard.
