#I actually prefer that somebody cause something bad to happen and then go

Neil Gaiman was against the existence of the internet archive up until the most recent ruling against it. He’s made a turn around now that he’s apparently realized how bad this could eventually get for FF writers (due to increasingly litigious copyright restrictions being introduced) but honestly I’m really disappointed in him. He helped push the narrative that Internet Archive is stealing from authors and publishers by acting as a lending library and this turnaround of his is too little too late imo

Sources pls and thx

Also no, it's not too little too late. Unless you would rather that people never admit that they were wrong??

Clarrise la rue x fem!reader

Warnings and explanations: bad words (take the kids out of the living room she swears) gender is specified cause it was written as wlw, but it doenst actually makes a diference, fluff, like two sentences, there is a kiss in the picture but they dont actually kiss sorry.

Unspecified parent gender for both sides so yall can pick wichever

Trying not to kill myself.

That was what i was doing 15 hours ago, just as any normal teenagers living (or as i prefer saying fighting for the soul to stay on the body) during finals week.

In my room there was nothing but piles and piles of normal work, piles for extra credit, piles of old quizzes to try to get me prepared for the new ones and a dumb incomplete project for photography class that was due tomorrow.

Okay ill admit, i had a month to make that, and all i needed to do was shoot pictures, but that was the problem, i prefer taking pictures of people, their emotions, whatever they might be, just never ceases to amaze me.

And my dumb project made take pictures of....landscapes.

Not too bad, if i had any actual real talent for that type of photography, but i dont, every picture gets ruined somehow, its the lightning, the lack of it, my camera falls, gets full of dirt and i get so mad that i just give up.

That whole speach was necessary for me to explain what i was doing 14 hours ago, and that would explain what i was doing 5 minutes ago.

14 hours ago i decided to shoot the photos, i could try many times before it got dark, and if o was lucky enough i wouldnt go insane before the golden hour, and could actually get some nice pictures.

I grabbed my totte bag taking with me only the necessary, camera stuff, the camera, some snacks and my notebook to upload the pictures before i went mad.

13 hours ago i was running to save my life.

And do you know that moment went you go through so much your mind decides to erase it?

That happened, now, what i do remember, i was sitting in a bench by a calm road not too far from the town, i had got some actually good pictures, some of me, some of the trees, some of a butterfly, maybe three cars had passed by since i was there, driving slowly, always saying hi and doing a thumbs up, normal, friendly people from the town.

And then i heard a noise that shook the trees.

I remember seeing something, but never what, i remember running to home as fast as i could, feeling my heartbeats in my neck, i remember the noise, but the people in the streets looked at me like there was nothing behind me and i went crazy

I remember getting home, having a desperate talk with my parent while they got my suiticase ready, and i dont remember a single word.

I remember a funny looking guy my age that got to my house, with goat legs and a more desperate look, and i remember one last hug before i left.

And thats all, aside from a hell of a lot of running nobody cares.

Aparently i passed out from shock or exaustion because i woke up in a unknown place, at night, in a hospital bed, with no actual doctors other than 15 year olds teenagers.

And a horseman standing in the corner, with quite a intelectual look actually.

And let me tell you guys that after the talk we had, if somebody told me i would marry queen Elizabeth within 4 days, i would just belived it.

Because nothing ever in my life would ACTUALLY beat up the level of crazyness of finding out i DO have another parent, they are just, A FUCKING GOD. GREEK. GODS. AH.

Then, after telling me my whole life was in fact, a big fat lie, the horseman... left.

Telling me i should sleep in the infirmary this night for precaution and that he was going to get me to a cabin tomorrow.

Like that was the most normal thing to ever happen to a human, he said goodnight and left.

While i sat there just trying to...basically form a sentence that wasnt "for fucks sake what the fuck was that"

I would have loved to say that i did slept that night, dreaming about glory and greek myths but that did not happened, at all.

I walked around the infirmary for hours, opening every cabinet and trying to make my mind to something, i searched for my stuff, and thankfully found my camera, with some pictures i hadnt noticed i had taken, one specific had a blurred thing in the forest.

When the first rays of sunlight appeared i got dressed, and decided that, in order to prove to myself (and probably to the mental hospital afterwards) i was not insane, i needed proof that i was actually living, actually there, being a demigodess, thats what they called.

Very few people were up already, and i did received some weird looks, it was clear nobody knew me, that was fine, i didnt knew anybody either.

I walked around taking some pictures, sometimes getting lost, but everything amazed me, the forest, the cabins, the stables, i found the entrance to a beach too, and then i got to the training area, aparently, i stayed far away, god forbid i woke up from this nightmare with a spear in my head, oh no, that would be bad.

Openning my camera i zoomed in the people, my speciality, it was sweet, seeing them trully smile, and not pretend for the picture, it was a genuine feeling the camera would keep forever, i zoomed around other peoples faces, but my camera focused on a face i could never forget, and she looked back at me, and realized i was there, but not that i was me, because she came towards me with a angry look.

Ill admit, the look scared me as hell, so much i tried to pretend i was never taking pictures of her, i slightly changed the angle and kept my face hidden behind the camera.

Do i need to say that did not fucking worked? No? Thank you.

"Who the fuck do you think you are taking random pictures of pe-"

She yanked my camera off of me mid sentence and stopped completely, looking like she had seen a ghost for some seconds.

"(Y/n)?"

"Clari?"

"How- what are you doing here!?"

She asked, with a worried look, still kind of confused, she did this look since we were little girls, and for a moment i had a big deja vu.

Two little girls running around, playing all day, telling each other secrets and stories, running to hug each other eveytime they were close, i still saw that girl in her eyes, but by her previous look, she did not.

"What am i doing here? What are YOU doing here? One day you dissapear without a trace, and your family said you went to a new school even though it was the summer, and now i find you sparring with a spear? You are that too? A demigoddes, i mean?"

I spoke fast, nervous, as if my time in the world with her would end just as it did once.

Instead of responding me right away, clarisse did something that maybe would scare every single soul she knew in the past years.

She hugged me. Hard.

Breathing me in, and not letting me go exactly as you would expect of someone who hasnt seen me in years.

"I couldnt tell you anything... it wouldnt be safe...im sorry, i missed my friend... i missed you."

I just looked at her for some seconds, and then hugged her again, this time i was the one making it extra tight, i was the one going insane by the reconforting smell of her shampoo, praying that she couldnt feel my heartbeats against her chest, and how strong they were.

"Just.. dont leave me again okay? And ill forgive you, i promisse"

Hello there.

Since you're taking a request, then maybe some poły relationship with Theo and Mattheo. Preferably male lub gn reader

Thanks and have a good day

aaaaaa a non-monogamous relationship with my two favorite boyos??? abso-fuckin-lutely!!!

polyamorous theodore nott & mattheo riddle x gn!reader headcanons

(lovely pictures from @demieyesore)

since it wasn’t specified if the boyos were dating each other as well or not, i made it ✨up to reader interpretation✨

❕gender-neutral reader❕

TWs: violence (it’s theo & mattheo, what do you expect?), brief sexual harassment/attempted sexual assault (?)

requests open (please for the love of god)

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

general headcanons:

mattheo is little spoon and i will take no arguments

(he’s almost always in the middle <3)

if you call theo literally any pet name he will die on the spot

same if you call mattheo any variation of ‘pretty boy’ or ‘cutie’

(extra bonus points if you compliment something unrelated to his physical appearance, like how well he did on a test, or how perceptive he is. homeboy will have no idea how to respond. he’ll just be like 🧍‍♂️🥹👍🫶)

the poly thing actually only happened because there was a very aggressive love triangle thing going on and then they were like “wait this is dumb”

plus, it makes a bunch of the teachers uncomfy, + both of their fathers, so really it’s ideal

they r possessive as F U C K

they can share with each other, that’s it. no one else.

i dare anyone to try to bully or harass you

or actually, even just look at you

OR IF SOMEBODY TRIES TO ASK YOU OUT

someone call an ambulance for the poor fuck 💥🚑🚨🩹🪦💀

lil oneshot thing? idk man:

you go to one of enzo’s stupid parties without your boys

“i’ll be fine guys, promise”

y/n was, in fact, Not Fine™

someone tries to hit on you but just DOESNT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER

let's say it’s cormac mclaggen cause mf is creepy asf

(i know everyone makes him like ‘the bad guy’ but yk what if you don’t like it go write ur own headcanons. they’d probably be better anyways)

anywhore, cormac is like, getting a lil too close for comfort

just kind of haranguing you the whole night

offering drinks, complimenting how you’re dressed, telling you that your boyfriends are “so lucky to have someone as sexy as you”

🤮🤮

you are OBVIOUSLY uncomfortable

but shit hits the fan when he grabs your waist/hip area and tries to kiss you

✨surprise!✨

your mancandy was here the whole time 😌

(not cause they don’t trust you, they just don’t trust anybody else)

💥👊😡🩸🩹🔪🗡️💣

cormac: 🥊🦷😵‍💫🩸🩹🩼☠️⚰️🪦

(lowkey hot to watch em defend you but yk)

((y/n for literally no reason: 👁️🫦👁️)

(((if you tell mattheo you think it’s hot, he’ll just go 🥺🫶💋😚🫂)))

misc:

expounding further on my earlier mattheo x reader headcanons, a scientific study i’ve conducted has found that mattheo riddle is, in fact, a himbo

from the new partridge dictionary of slang and unconventional english, a himbo is “a man objectified by his good looks and presumed lack of intellectual qualities, a man who trades on this image, a gigolo”

objectified by his good looks? have you met tumblr? ✅

lack of intellectual qualities? well, he thinks violence solves everything and thinks with his dick instead of his brain so i’m gonna say yeah ✅

but let’s keep it going, shall we?

a himbo is also defined as the “human version of a golden retriever—beautiful, incredibly well-intentioned, and dumb.”

…yep

beautiful ✅ well-intentioned (in his own mind) ✅ & dumb (lovingly) ✅

additionally: buff 💪 ✅ & respects his romantic partner(s) ✅

“but hp-hcs,” you bemoan. “what does that make theo?”

well, my dear delusionists, theodore nott is a hunk—not quite a himbo, but close

hopefully this venn diagram i made of some of the himbos & himbo-adjacents in the hp world will help illustrate this for you

[qui-gg]

opinion on the bog ii 🤖🤖🤖

I’ll assume you mean bot and answer accordingly

(Drops art i havent shared and wasnt really planning to. But its appropriate for the things ill talk about yay)

Fun fact i didn’t really have a strong opinion of bots character for a while but then one day i woke up and went “I have an idea for a gjinka” and it caused me to get into their character and now its like my fav gjinka to draw

(Some fun facts about that gjinka design: their head is completely magnetic, and their “hair” is a set of completely removable accessories so their natural state is bald, they can add as much or as little as they want. Also they continue to wear a little pink because i was thinking of the “I can still like chocolate cake” line- they can still like pink too)

I LOVE BOT. Even though i have thoughts and opinions about the iffy nature they were implemented overall i love the concept of a character who was made to be someone else and theyve given me a lot to chew on which i appreciate with a character. What really fascinates me about them is how their interactions with other characters play out so id like to talk more about that⬇️

Their relationship with Cabby was what caused me to create the gjinka design in the first place, and then I found a song that made me think of them and i was like Wow. Bot and cabby’s initial impressions of one another being somewhat at odds due to miscommunication but ultimately other factors (cabby’s disability and bot’s suppression of their fake memory- wow they both have memory issues!) was something that lasted a while but then iii14 saw the end of bot’s assumptions of her being strained when they finally had the chance to actually talk with one another. Bot assumed that Cabby was obsessed with finding a way to explain their existence and identity which they very much felt didn’t need an explanation for who they were, but they realized this is only the way cabby processes the world around her they both place importance on identity both with not knowing their pasts and carving a way for their futures the way they are and they can do it together agh i love ittt

Here my gjinkas of them with an outfit styleswap

One day i kind of started placing suitcase in bots position to cabby though and i just think about their potential relationship primarily now though LMAO but thats unrelated

With fan and test tube I had stronger opinions about how the circumstances/reasons behind creating them weren’t strong enough and it caused both of their characters to backslide from where they were in ii14 but now i like to look at it and take what i can get from it because i like it when characters do bad and questionable things its interesting to analyze why they did something so selfish. In fan’s case he didnt have a strong connection with bow’s death when it happened beyond being a fan of her bc of his low empathy at the time especially he didnt process it as Death, and he believes he knows everything about bow as the number1 fan so now hes the best person for the job, and test tube coldly decides to recreate the image of a person under the idea shes now using her strengths for a good cause, but shes wrong and she has to learn shes wrong. Theyre not bot’s parents- but it’s easiest for them to describe them that way, since they created them, but that’s not quite how their relationship is at all. Bot has no real familial ties with them, and test tube created them with the sold intention of being somebody other than they are, so that’s always going to stick with them and theyre not just a blindly happy family now. Bot is also a grown adult that doesnt just go away they shouldn’t be infantilized so much. They can be friends with fan and test tube because they now recognize them as Bot but honestly theyd prefer keeping a distance when they can because they wish they were made intentionally or were just a person, but they appreciate being created. Its a pretty unique situation

What really fascinates me the most though is the concepts of how they are in relation to Bow, with the concept of being created as a replication of someone who already exists being so terrifying for both involved. In Bot’s perspective, their conscious is being repressed intentionally to continue living someone else’s life who they never even knew and doesnt identify with. And everyone is acting like its fine and okay when theyre the only one who seems to see how scary this is. They just struggle to grasp with their very existence with the only thing to guide them being a paragraph of a character description and to spew references that dont make sense. In BOWS perspective, she was a celebrity and the most popular contestant in the first season of a reality show, and even after dying on it the fans just screamed for her to “come back” though it was impossible. So her likeness kept getting replicated by both the show (doughs inclusion) and fans (bots creation) who both misrepresented her and she could do nothing but watch it play out. Her death was being denied and other people were living her life just because she was popular on a show, it’s terrifying. Terrifying and despair inducing for both of them theyd both have a disdain for one another on an existential degree, and bot finding their identity is freeing for both of them.

Lifetime achievement award made me insane abt this thanks panks

:D ive talked long enough so thanks for reading this far if you made ittt ! More art

Things I love ❤ or I hate 💔 in Powerpuff girls fanfics

Important, this is completely written with my personal preferences and individual taste, is not meant to attack anyone so remember: If you love what I hate is ok and if you hate what I love is ok too. Let's respect each other's individual preferences in fanfics and characters 🫂, also I admit some things that I might dislike are justified to happen depending of the gender of the story whether is dark, or just a bit serious but with comedy, slice of life... Or if the author simply wants to change some aspects of the characters and be creative, no one is obligated to indulge my preferences. (By the way this things could be something I have read so many times in lots of fanfics or it could be something I only read once, either way they're going to the list) :

Bubbles reaching a point she snaps and becomes hardcore and maybe a bit sadist. Love it, the trope of being the cutest🥰 character until you get crossed 🤬 is one of my favorites, all cuteness has its dark side😈. I love part of Bubbles point in fight is being dismissed by villains only to make them strongly regret it later.

Professor Utonium being an overprotective dad and intimidating to the RRB. Hate it, more like hating it is more like if you exaggerate with his overprotection is annoying 😑😑 and the situation where he is able to intimidate the RRB is just hilariously ridiculous and impossible to me🤪😬... Like if he can intimidate the boys what are the girls for in the first place why do they need them then? 🤷‍♀️ It doesn't make sense, also the Professor is a very sweet accepting person and also he has some sense of guilt towards Mojo Jojo who is the responsable of the RRBs, he would probably want to help them going to the right path rather than trying to antagonize them being an "intimidating" Dad.

Bubbles being a weak pushover who is constantly compared to her sisters and needs another character help to get stronger because otherwise she is useless. Hate it, as if she was less than her sisters, I just can't take it if she gets dismissed or bullied and she just accepts it and somebody else has to defend her 😤😤(not in all escenarios thought, I mean certain situations specifically). Bubbles is sensitive but she has a temper, she won't take bullying just like that, she can fight her two sisters at the same time and they never hesitate to call for her help if they are overpowered. There's a fanfic where they have to give up some classes to watch over the boys and Bubbles got the worst part having to give up something she loves, Blossom not bad intentioned but still thoughtless and insensitive says that because of her good grades and Buttercup being a sport star they give prestige to the school unlike her🤡🤡 and Bubbles just accepts this, she never speaks up against this or complains! 🤬🤬What she renounced to caused other students to bully her and she still doesn't stands up for herself, she doesn't even tell her sisters and someone else has to defend her WTF, excuse me?🤬🤬 Nope. Or other fic where she and Butch have a relationship and the whole premise is how useless she is in battle, being compared to Buttercup all the time and needing Butch to teach her how to fight... HELLO??? NOPE.🙅‍♀️

Butch's multiple nicknames for Buttercup. Love it, honestly Buttercup has the biggest amount of nicknames, mostly given by Butch : Butters, Butterfly (they could name their daughter that), Butt-Cup, Butterbitch, Butterbabe, Bitterbitch, Butterbutt... lol 🤣🤣🤣

Buttercup being the sister with the most experience in love. Love it, seriously I just love the irony and contrast of the puff that was the most grossed out about romance and kissing, the known toughest fighter being actually the first one having deep serious romantic feelings and relationships and being first experiencing heartbreak. 😭😭😭

The Blues always having the easiest love story or starting a general RRB-PPG story with them already in love. Hate it, seriously whether you chose to make Boomer a jerk or a super sweet guy you shouldn't make that easy a relationship, I mean where is the good juice? This two get lovey dovey two fast and easy like they can't have a decent funny banter like their siblings!? 😫Trust me they can and they should otherwise is too boring. I specially dislike it when at the beginning of the story they are already in love or even in a relationship, where is the juicy process?? 😐

The greens starting with violence a lot of banter only to become bros, (yes, Buttercup is a Bro) and besties and eventually falling in love and taking a long time to accept it. Love it, oh boy I LOVE it, the only time I like a slow burn is when the characters are like this, the greens are just so entertaining,👌👌 so aggressively in denial and it can get so deep a wholesome! My favorite is in that fanfic where he actually starts obsessingly lusting over Blossom in such exaggerated way that when he starts to fall for Buttercup it created a marvelous deep contrast between the shallow attraction and the hopeless deep feelings of love and is just so beautifully written (even though the reds are terrible and the blues are bland in that fic) , seriously you can feel hard the difference of how he sees the beauty of Buttercup in the simplest and most meaningful way full of feeling😭💗 compared to his constant obsessed shallow remarks towards Blossom's "hotness". It was just too good, I don't know if I ever going to read another fic with the Greens being that good again. 🥺💚💚

Bubbles being the one with the most emotional intelligence. Love it, is just the best when characters around her are used to her being slow thinking and having her head in the clouds to suddenly realize that she picks up instantly others people feelings and understands them perfectly. After all Blossom is the mind 🧠, Buttercup is the body 💪and Bubbles is the heart 🫀of the group.

Butch getting a kick out of fighting Buttercup. Love it, a classic Butch being a masochist per usual, never gets old. 👊😂😂

Boomer being a clumsy macho tsundere. Love it, I'm weak with tsundere characters and I think it fits him, he trying to act all macho but ending up being super clumsy making Bubbles think he is cute. 🥰

Buttercup being described as someone always dressed with chandals, hoodie and baggy clothes... Ect and specially making her wear that kind of clothes because she is ashamed of her femenine attributes. Hate it, because I don't see Buttercup as that kind of tomboy 😕, she would wear skirts or dresses as long as they suit her style (like of course she would hate a princess tutú duh! but denim skirts exist ok) and also I just can't picture her being ashamed of the femininity of her body,😤she is only shy about feelings or intimacy but if she has a worked out body with muscles to show, boobs or not she WILL show off to brag.

Buttercup being popular with girls while being straight. Love it, I like girls fangirling over a good tomboy but I also love that you don't fall in the stereotype of the tomboy having to be the lesbian, lesbians can be also femenine and girly ok?💅💄💋 I also like the jokes about her being a lesbian, because of course if she was actually one then it wouldn't be a joke. 😇😂

Blossom being: too correct, entitled, Mary Sue, cold, party pooper, too serious, too mean, too bossy controlling, too victimitist or sacrificed, too perfect... All this not as a puntual moment in the story but she being like this all the time. Hate it, but ok to be fair is true that Blossom has a lot of attributes that can make characters be obnoxious but I swear she also have other attributes that make up for it and create a good balance: yes she is self-centered, but still caring and supporting to others,😌 yes she is prideful but when her pride is hurt she pouts and that's cute🤭, yes she is bossy but she also knows she doesn't have full control on her sisters and she can be a cool girlboss😎, yes she can be serious...sometimes because mostly she is really silly and likes to have fun🙃🙂, yes she can be all about following the rules but we all know she always ends up breaking them when is convenient to her🤫, she can be selfish or mean but that is not her everyday, she studies a lot but likes comics and video games too... She is a good 3 dimensional character.

Also Blossom being humble and modest like for real not pretending to be. Hate it, she humble?😂 Ja, NOPE. Following my previous statement, she is a bit full of herself despite having insecurities but writers tend to make her modest because loving too much your appearance and brag about it it's seen as a bad thing but there are plenty of pleasant characters that brag a lot about their looks and are lovable like Stella from winx club or Rouge the bat. I like Blossom to be that character that once she notices her beauty gets good reactions she is going to own it and walk through the hall like in a catwalk with her chin up 💅😎(only to more likely crash into a closed door or something because she was so busy enjoying that she didn't pay attention). Trust me, most of the time the excessive modesty ends up being extremely annoying. Example, beach day scene I have read that made me roll my eyes hard: RRB, PPG and some of their school friends, here Blossom is uncharacteristically antisocial and prefers to hide away and read a book while covering herself as much as she can (because of course wearing a swimsuit being attractive is such an indecent thing to do 😑) Instead of playing with her sisters and friends, but at some point she decided to play volley and OMG she uncovered herself and showed her swimsuit!😱 Only to cover herself again fast...😐 Bricks legs wavered like he almost faint... The boys gasp Butch feigns a heart attack blah blah. This was just so meh🙄😬! I would have liked it more if she made a sexy stunt purposely to provoke Brick who is a big jerk here so she could gloat on his reaction without any shame about her body. In fact the opposite when Brick took off his shirt was better and funny, he did it to scape from his brothers who where dragging him and then a horny Buttercup destroyed it to shamelessly look at his abs 🤣🤣(that was a lot funnier than Butch reaction to Blossom) ,I guess is because Brick was only annoyed and grumpy but he wasn't ashamed or uncomfortable with the attractiveness of his body. I'm am being a sexist bitch? Nah, 🤷‍♀️a girl who is uncomfortable with being pretty(with her specific background) and is a teenager acting like a entitled prudish bitter adult lady at the same time😬 is just not my cup of tea... Not my Blossom, this Blossom gives hard slut-shaming vibes😒.... Ok ok I know I roasted her way too much, but I can't help it! Blossom is supposed to look up to miss Bellum and Wonder Woman and I totally think this one would disapprove them showing legs and Cleaveage 😫 DISHONOR that's something only the garbage Blossom from the Garbage 2016 bullshit reboot would do, don't make your fanfic Blossoms do the same!! 😭😭

The boys playing affectionately even as teens or adults. Love it, people don't give credit enough to this kind of scenes and they are so wholesome, I remember one fanfic that had a chapter where Boomer and Butch became dogs 🐶🐶and Boomer jumps on Brick and they start wrestling and the Butch jumps in too! 🥰And they were having fun I almost never get to read this kind of things because they usually write Brick like too cool, grumpy and wannabe a serious adult for this kind of thing.

Brick being a hot eye candy with so much bad boy aura and his brothers being jealous of that. Love it, ok when its about the girls I hate when there's only one super popular so I have to admit I'm being a bit sexist but i can't help it! the bros being dramatic because they don't get the same reaction as Brick from the fangirls is funny😆😆, they are handsome too 😍but Brick has the best brooding bad boy aura, like I can forget Brick being too much of a jerk if it gets me an emotional sibling conflict,👌👌that way I can dislike him but I can like his brothers development. Brotherly jealousy like this gives good boy drama.

Butch being kind of a pervert or a manwhore. Love it, specifically when is the kind of comical pervert that like in the animes gets bonked or smacked or punched in the face any time he tries to be flirty funny and says something gross. 🤣🤣🤣

Buttercup being a tsundere. Love it, just like with Boomer it fits her, we all now she is shy with sappy stuff, scared of having feelings, being defensive, blushing hard... I'm sure Bubbles thinks her sister is cute when she is like this 😍😍

Bubbles being innocently eager and Boomer being too awkward to handle it. Love it, you know that thing when a boy gets cocky and so sure of himself with a seemingly innocent pure girl and when he finally conquers her unexpectedly she gets forward and eager and suddenly the boy loses the confidence and gets awkward? Oh that's a good juice 😏 🧃

Making Brick doing everything Blossom does but better. Hate it, ok like I already said Blossom is so cultured and good at school because she works hard for it and likes studying😤, of course Brick would be as smart and cunning as her but making him out of the blue a genius that gets just as good or even better grades as her and also be so cultured too while being nonchalant about it is a huge NOPE for me🙄🙄, I accept something like Blossom roasting him because of his grades at school and he getting pissed starts to study to get better grades just to get back at her (making her be impressed, but pissed) 😂😂but I need to see the effort and the reason of motivation!😤 Because I don't see him liking studying and I won't take a genius that achieves that just because. The thing they could have in common I could believe are comics and playing guitar, let brick get turned on with her guitar skills please. 😆

Brick having a breakdown and crying. Love it, normally this guy is always the grumpiest or coldest or the most jerk jackass asshole in fanfics so when he actually has emotions and he displays them, and cries is just so satisfying... Love it. 🫶😃

Blossom being always the one sacrificing herself. Hate it, i see this way too often, writers tend to do it because she is the leader and because she is seen as the big sister (that's another one I hate, they popped to life at the same time there's no big or little sister😤) but I'd like to see the other sisters doing the sacrifice and see how it affects Blossom more often, give leader girl a break.

Blossom's sisters seemly being psychological unable to disobey her orders as if she was indisputable and if they disobey is seen as a terrible or stupid thing to do always. Hate it, sorry but that situation fits better with the RRB given Brick's intimidating nature, Blossom leads hers sisters and can get bossy but her sisters will never obey her if they don't agree with her,💪 they won't blindly do whatever she asks always and she doesn't have the right to forbid things to them, no like they will listen just because.😌 Remember the sisters aren't afraid to call her out, their relationship has a more love and trust nature, with the boys is ok because they probably think family love and trust is for sissies. 🤐

One of the girls being the most popular girl in school without a understandable justification. Hate it, in general I don't like when is only ONE of them because the three girls (aside being literal superheros) have enough traits to have their own individual fans but more importantly I need popularity to have a proper believable reason🧐. For example, PPGZ Bubbles isn't at all what I expected for an anime Bubbles but her popularity with boys at school was at least believable🤔, she was a lady like elegant girl, really kind and friendly with everyone, cheerful and that cares a lot about her appearance and that's exactly what you see in the show, for how simple the anime was you could see that she wasn't popular just because "cute". In contrast there is a fanfic Blossom is said to be top most popular girl in the school and the reasoning is: "she is so hot and has good legs"😬 because she dances (there's like an obsession about her legs) but then she has a really repellent insufferable entitled personality 🤬and is not really nice... I mean she is cold polite but not nice nice ☹️☹️(she is even cold and a bit thoughtless with her sisters in general) and apparently doesn't care too much about her appearance, mostly only worries about showing skin...🙄🙄 Someone like that is the most popular girl? I just don't believe that popularity statement. (By the way, I found weird that she was the only puff with good legs when the other sisters also do activities that can get you nice legs too, like being a cheerleader or playing every fucking school sport, so Buttercup's body is all cut and toned everywhere except her legs? Yeah I know I'm being a picky bitch🤐 about this but you get what I mean?)

Blossom being a funny drama queen. Love it, ohhh I love it,😆😆 she often overreacts over not big deals in the show, so seeing her being dramatic because she didn't get a A+ on every subject, or because she lost her favorite bow, or because she laughed so hard drinking a smoothie the drink came out of her nose🤣🤣 and then suddenly is the end of the world is just the best👌. I mean the other sisters are dramatic as well over silly things too but I think Blossom is funnier. But careful because depending of how is written it can backfire and she could become too victimist. 🙅‍♀️

Blossom and Bubbles being sassy bitches (the funny kind). Love it, usually is Buttercup the one who gets to give more comebacks and picks up a fight first and also play pranks but the other two usually have good behavior but then there's those precious moments when they are mischievous and get sassy and savage 😂😂 (remember in the show how Blossom messed with Brick in the boys are back in town? 🤣🤣 or there were moments where Bubbles innocently roasted Buttercup 😂?)

One of the RRB or the PPG overdoing the fight and getting all bloody and banged up and the other worried sick. Love it, oh boy I'm addicted to this kind of thing 👌👌 the bloodiest the better, I think the best one I read was one with the greens that ended with them sleeping together in a stretcher in the professor's lab😫😫😫😭 I'm dying! 💘

CPR situations. Love it or hate it depending of how is written, whether is drama or comedy.

Sick day plot. Love it, just like when they get injured, viruses and fevers are also welcome!😆👌 I prefer the boys getting sick over the girls because boys tend to act like soft big babies 🥺and crave attention and comfort🥰 (sometimes without noticing they are doing that and getting embarrassed later...), I'm so weak for this.

Beach or lake or swimming pool plot. Love it, classic anime episode that is always horny comedy. 😎👙

Bunny being alive. Not completely hate it but is just not my cup of tea, Bunny's existence is one of the few angst things I can take and I do love fics where she is mentioned or where she appears as a ghost or spirit... Those are tears I don't mind shed. 😢😢

Mayor character death. Ok, I'm not going to say I hate it... But most of the time I can't take it, like I become irrational and wish for a deux ex Machina🙃 so the dead character is resurrected... I once read two angst fics, in one brick slowly dies from a cancer and in the other buttercup is dead and butch is mourning her in a extremely mentally painful way for me...🥲🥲 I regret so much reading that, it completely destroyed me. Normally is only if is one of the RRB or the PPG that I can't endure it.🥲🥲😭😭

Sex. Love it or hate it depending completely on the writer skills on this matter. 😏

Princess Morebucks being obsessed with Brick. Hate it, like... I know she thought of them as cool and wanted to join forces but I think after how they treat her she must have a forever super grudge against them😬😬, and she probably looks down on men, being crazy about one of the dudes who belittled you and also get to have superpowers you want and don't have is not believable to me🙅‍♀️, I mean they hurt Princess pride and ego, she is not going to put that behind to pursue Brick, besides is a kind of plot drama that usually is only pointless and annoying soooo... Nope.

The girls being affectionate with each other. Love it, the warm wholesome sisterhood moments are beautiful let's see😫👌🥰, Bubbles sleeping in Blossoms lap, Buttercup accepting Bubbles affection after she did something for her, Blossom crying in Bubbles arms, Buttercup hugging Blossom from behind while she is having a breakdown and one of my favorites was the one that they are teens and sleep in separated beds but because Blossom had trouble sleeping Bubbles joined their beds and later Buttercup joins too! So beautiful! 😫😫👏👏👏

The Ruffs being friends with the Puffs that aren't their love interests. Love it, because they can have interesting relationships, honestly Brick and Bubbles is an underrated friendship, I'll love if she was able to terrify him to defend her sister and boyfriend 🤣🤣👌👌. Butch could ask Bubbles for love advice, Boomer could ask Blossom for help with Homework... Stuff like that 😁.

Girl... That's a lot of text between statements... I'm so sorry 😅😅 who knows if I'll think of more things and make a part two... 😅😅🙃

I Care About Him

(Hanzo x You!FemReader)

Part 2 - Lost

(Part 1: linked in the final of the this chapter)

(Art: YoloPharaoh)

* *working in your notebook while sitting in your bed, someone knock your door. You sighs thinking of the worse, Ana told you that would contact you to new updates of the mission with Hanzo, so many things to do already... you stand up going to open the door and who was there surprised you with a nose bleeding*

You- Oh! God, Hanzo! What happened?!

Hanzo- I... *sighs* I hit my bow in my face trying to fix it.

You- *smirk* And you want me to take care? *he nodded* Right, come in.

*Hanzo sat in your bed looking up for the blood don't drop on his white hoodie pants. You pick up some medications and give him to hold the small box while you clean the blood with a wet cloth. Again you were between his legs, very close*

Hanzo- Is too bad?

You- Well, is hurting?

Hanzo- A little bit.

You- And you can breath, so... is fine. Are you sure that was your bow?

Hanzo- Why? You think I would have a fight with somebody that talked about you while I was eating my dinner? *you stopped looking at him* What?

You- You did what?

Hanzo- What?

You- You just said that you were in a fight!

Hanzo- I did?

You- It wasn't the bow, what happened? *annoyed*

Hanzo- Look! I...! I can't let someone talk shit about you!

You- Who?

Hanzo- Some stupid soldiers! *angry while remembering* That...fucking! *sighs* Disgusting.

You- And you started a fight?

Hanzo- Nooo, I only told them to stop, cause that wasn't nice.

You- And...?

Hanzo- They laughed at me and keep saying things about you...

You- Aaand?

Hanzo- I punch his face! Ok...! I may have started!

You- And now you got a nose bleeding *fake smile and finish to clean his nose* Actually you have a bruise...

Hanzo- They hit me with a chair...

You- *Look at him in shook* Hanzo!

Hanzo- Don't be angry with me! *he embrace his arms around your body* Sorry...

You- Your ribs aren't even healed yet and you went to a physical fight?!

Hanzo- Mmmm....*he looked at you that only sighed in disappointment while bandaged his nose* You're very angry, right?

You- Look, I'm glad that you are defending me, but... Take care of you too. We're having the mission next week, you have to be fine. And... I'm not your girlfriend.

Hanzo- *smirk* Why you said that?

You- Cuz you're being overprotective with me.

Hanzo- I must, you have no idea what they say about you.

You- I prefer not to know...

Hanzo- Makes me angry, y/n... *sighs* Now I have a reason to punch them.

You- *laughs* Nooo, you don't have a reason.

Hanzo- Of course I do! *you finish the bandage and he keeps hugging you* You're my favorite person here.

You- *chuckles and let go of him sitting beside him* You mean, I'm your crush?

Hanzo- *blush* Ye- yeah... You're not my girlfriend, but you're my partner... I just want you save from those rumors.

You- You need to control your anger, Han, I mean it, is the second time this month.

Hanzo- Ops...*chuckles and lay down in your bed* I think I'll stay here for a while...!! *stretching and closing his eyes*

You- *lay down next to him* Since when you became a bad boy? You're getting into fights, you got your nose piercing last week *chuckles* Shaved your hair...

Hanzo- Bad boy? You didn't like it?

You- Quite the opposite... *Look at him* Since when you change your character?

Hanzo- Since I fell in love *smirk and look at you*

You- *laughs shyly* So that's the real Hanzo?

Hanzo- I guess... I was shaped like someone I'm not all those years.

You- I like both Hanzo... I mean, I like you *shrugs*

Hanzo- *chuckles and blush* I like you too... *silence and look at you* Why didn't we kiss yet?

You- Hanzo! *laughs shyly hiding your face in your hands*

*someone knock the door and both sit on the bed*

You- Come in! *Vivian open the door* Captain?

Hanzo- Something happened?

Soujourn- We got the signal again, we must go. Now!

*hours later, inside the ship*

*You were sleeping on Hanzo's shoulder while he study more and again about the mission on his tablet, while in the other side*

Ana- Ooh how right I was about them *chuckles*

Rein- *chuckles* Soul mates grow so fast! Look how close they're already, Ana! You are a love cupid!

Ana- It was written in the stars all this time... Genji is so happy with this, he said that he finally can see his true brother's light. Imagine, have to obey and be so unhappy your entire life and suddenly, someone appears like a angel to change your heart, your life... Everything *rest her head in Rein's arm and smile* I'm so happy for this kids. Such a young love... Both never thought of this before and suddenly happened.

Rein- *smile* You're like a proud mom, Ana~

Ana- I'm a happy grandma ~

Hanzo-... *Look at you and smile* You didn't slept well again... *move your hair from your face*

Ana- *walk towards him* Hey... *smile* She's a sleepy head, isn't she?

Hanzo- She never goes to bed in a appropriate time... *chuckles* and sleep a lot.

Ana- Are you two together?

Hanzo- What? You mean... Romantically? *she nodded and he chuckles blushing* Well... Almost, I believe. We're knowing each other.

Ana- You two seem very close and getting closer every day. I'm happy that you finally let go of your fears, Hanzo. When Genji told me you story, I cried... I could feel your pain since your were a child. Your loneliness, your duties... Everything.

Hanzo- Thanks for the compassion, Ana... *smiles* But, thanks to my brother and Overwatch, I finally felt embrace. But y/n... She did what I thought would be impossible for me. I... *chuckles shyly* I fell in love so bad...! I want to move on with her, but it may scare her...

Ana- Well, it may, yes, she is a very anxious person. You both, stay strong *wink going to the captain's cabin*

Hanzo- We will... *heard you moaning and slowly waking up* Hey Sleepyhead.

You- We didn't landed yet?

Hanzo- We have maybe two hours. We're going to the North, is kind hard.

You - You're right...! *yawn* I'm still sleppy...

Hanzo- Stay awake a little bit, it may help.

You- You missed me *smirk sleepy and he laughed* Whaaat? Did I lie?

Hanzo- Yes...? *you punch his arm* Ow! *chuckles* I'm joking~

Ana- *gets out of the cabine in hurry and desperate* Everybody! Hold on!!

Rein- Ana! *immediately stands up and a red light lighted up on the ship* What's going on?!

Ana- They found us...! *something hit the ship making her and Reinhardt fall*

Hanzo- Ana! Y/n! Hold Ana and I'll pick Reinhardt!!

Jack- *walks in holding onto the walls* Hold together! We're under attack!!

You- *putting Ana on the chair* The other ships! Where are they?!

Jack- We warned them! They only detected us...!! *something hit the ship again* Tracer!

Tracer- I'm fucking trying!! They're In my BUTT!!

Soujourn- The ship is on fire!! We must aboard the ship now!!

Tracer- What?!

Jack- Vivian! We're in the middle of the snow! In the middle of nowhere!

Soujourn- *throw him a parachute* If rather die again to an explosion, feel free!! *hit them again, everybody falls* Dammit! Jack! We'll be right behind you!!

Jack- You better be...! *put the parachute and everybody do the same* Everybody-! *hit again and the ship starts to make a warning sound* TRACER! OPEN THE DOOR! *the door open* RIGHT BEHIND ME, EVERYBODY! JUMP! NOW!

You- The backpack!! *you grab it*

Hanzo- Y/n we can't take it!

You- We're in the middle of nowhere...!! We need!

Hanzo- *thinking hard* Aargh...! Ok! Jump with me! I'll hold you!

Rein- Is that parachute works with my weight?! *Ana pushed him to the door* Ana...I don't know! I don't...!! *She kicks him out of the ship* WUAAAAAAH!!!

Ana- IF YOU DON'T PLANED TO DIE! YOU USE THE ONLY RESOURCE!! *jumps off*

You- *look down afraid and Hanzo holds your hands* I can't see nothing! I'm scared...!

Hanzo- We need to go right behind them, y/n! *hold your face* We can't lose them, ok?! I'm with you! Everything will be fine! Jump with me! 3...! 2...! *the ship started to lose altitude* NOW!

*both jump together and a few seconds the ship explode making the shock wave hit both of your strongly and losing balance on the air and separate a little bit, that later can make a huge trouble for him to open the parachute, but he fastly stabilized in the air, but you... We're in trouble! With no parachutes and a backpack, you body fliped over, facing up. Hanzo do his best to reach you while you were not able to move on the air. With a few minutes to open the parachute, Hanzo grabbed your wrist pulling you to him and open up the parachute, making now you both safe in the air*

You- *shaking and fast heavy breath in panic*...!!

Hanzo- I got you! I got you...! *taking a deep shaking breath* It's ok... *hug you tight for a moment to calm you down* I'm scared too...

*a few minutes in the air, Hanzo knew that he lost sign of the others... Both may be in trouble now. Two minutes in the air, both landed safely in a cold, rocky and snowy place. Around, big frozen trees and dense snow. Hanzo were putting his coat over your shoulders while you're trying to get yourself together after the almost death experience*

You- *looked at him surprised and worried* Your coat...

Hanzo- Keep it... *he was collecting some draw sticks under the trees* My body is pretty warm now. And I already came with snow clothes. Just keep yourself warm, ok? *he smirk to you*

You- If you say so... Thanks *hear something in the walk talkie inside the backpack, you immediately pick it up and Hanzo watched far* Is Vivian! Oh my God! *stands up happy* She's alive!

Hanzo- *smile in relieve*

You- Captain! Can you hear me?!

Soujourn- Y/n...! Dear good God you're alive too!

You - Thanks to Hanzo, here's here with men.

Soujourn- Great! Stick together and survive! We will find you too soon!

You- I got the backpack, captain, we are gonna to be fine.

Soujourn- Good, soldiers... I've being contact with Ana and Rein, they're fine. Tracer... Alive too, she send me a code in my system.

You- Jack?

Jack- I'm here, sweetheart... Don't worry.

You- *relived* You guys found each other?

Soujourn- For his lucky *laughs* Well, keep eye on the weather, we're lucky that is summer time, but the nights are cold and dangerous... Careful.

You- We will, captain.

Jack- *in the back* Hanzo! You know I take care of this girl, you better keep her safe...!

Hanzo- Yes, commander *laughs*

Soujourn- Be safe everyone, they'll find us soon.

PART 1:

[shippyo]

Random Hcs of Mr dark of the stuff that happens in Rayman mini cause why not,im very bored alright-

I like the idea that Mr. Dark, in his retired life of being that "threatening villain who wanted to reign over the glade" now raises (in a not very legal way) eggs that hide creatures/pets for other evil people,either by creating them himself by putting them for breed to get creatures with desirable characteristics for his clients or raising clients pets to train them to be more threatening and ferocious (or simply taking care just like a regular daycare for villain's pets,thats very funny for me tbh)

And for explain with Rayman mini stuff I like to imagine that those eggs that Mr. Dark gives Ray are failed or first-time experiments when he was breeding em and that those animals are not going to represent something bad for good/regular people in the glade,being comparable to a small cat or dog and instead to get rid of them, what better way to give them to a hero who he knows would take good care of these poor creatures (And maybe Rayman will put these creatures to adoption for the Teenesies or other people?)

I imagine that those challenges that Mr. Dark offers Rayman as "contracts" are actually things that Mr. Dark would have to do on his own such as rescuing the Teenesies but he prefers to get somebody else to do all job,he taking all the actual reward while Rayman just getting eggs.

[If u ask why Teenesis would ask Mr dark to rescue them i imagine that Mr dark,since he shapesift,he could have been making a name of his own with another identity,some short of "hero",but hey,why now do all that tiring job when you had the hyperactive jolly boy to do ALL that job?]

And at least some of these challenges of course, in others I imagine that he puts them with full intention like those of running 500 meters just for the mere laugh of seeing Rayman running around like a idiot for mere eggs of failed monsters that Mr dark himself created/breed,while Rayman thinking he did something good for it.

This is pretty much my hc to kinda explain why he does the things now that he came back after YEARS being dissapeared and why giving eggs to Rayman of cutesy creatures,,jwjdh

Thank u for listening my ted talk(?)

[stargazer-sims]

Subtlety

Eden: Cute sweater.

Haru: Thanks. It's my grandmother's.

Eden: You took your grandmother’s sweater?

Haru: Yeah, but she knows I have it. I like wearing it because it makes me feel close to her when I’m not with her. Weird, I know, but sometimes I just want to go home when I know I can’t, and this helps a little.

Eden: I don’t think it’s weird. It kinda makes me wish I’d brought something of my parents’ with me. I’m a lot farther away from home than you are, and I don’t know when I’m going to see my family next.

Haru: Oh. Sorry.

Eden: No, it’s okay. I knew it’d be like this when Charlie and I left. And I’m glad you can still see your family often, even if it’s not as often as you’d like.

Haru: If I had my way, I’d still be living with them. But, actually, if we're talking about literally seeing them, there's always video chats, and I can see my grandfather every evening during the week if I want to. Not in person, but I can watch him on TV.

Eden: Your grandfather is on TV?

Haru: Yeah. You’ve probably seen him too, if you ever watch the news on NHK.

Eden: Wait… Abe Sakuma, right? Same family name as you. I’ve seen him before, but I never made the connection.

Haru: You wouldn’t have any reason to until now.

Eden: So, your grandfather is famous too. No wonder you’re so comfortable with the spotlight. It’s kind of normal for you, isn’t it?

Haru: I guess you could say that. My grandmother says we’re both show-offs. I like to think of it as charisma and like, a talent for drawing attention to ourselves.

Eden: Some people might argue that consistently drawing attention to yourself isn’t a good thing.

Haru: Only if it’s the wrong kind of attention. Like, let’s say you’re trying to get attention from a cute boy. It’s not bad then, right?

Eden: Subtlety’s not one of your strengths, is it?

Haru: I don’t need subtlety. I’m sexy, rich and famous.

Eden: *laughing*

Haru: *yawning* I don’t know about you, but soaking in the bath made me sleepy.

Eden: As I was saying about your lack of subtlety…

Haru: Yeah, but sexy, rich and famous, remember?

Eden: Are you really sleepy?

Haru: Not really. I just want to cuddle.

Eden: You should’ve said so in the first place.

Haru: But, wouldn’t that be a complete lack of subtlety? Wouldn’t you prefer me to try, at least?

Eden: Your attempts are adorable, even if they’re hilarious, so yeah. I guess I would.

Haru: Adorable. Can you say that again, please?

Eden: You’re adorable, Haru.

Haru: Thank you. I already love hearing that from you.

Eden: I wonder where everyone else is? We haven’t seen anyone since we finished eating and said we were going to the bath.

Haru: Do you want them around? I’m fine with being alone with you.

Eden: I’m happy to be alone with you too. I just thought it’d be… I don’t know. Busier around here.

Haru: Usually it is. Senjirō and Keigo are probably sulking in their room now, and I’ll bet Ryu is hiding out somewhere with Ji-Soo, doing exactly what we’re doing.

Eden: I didn’t realize Ji-Soo lives here with you.

Haru: She doesn’t. She and her brother have a place in town. She’s only here because you’re here. Not that Ryu’s complaining, I’ll bet.

Eden: So, Ji-Soo and Ryu are a thing? Is that allowed?

Haru: It’s not really allowed, but even if they’re not confessing it, they definitely are a thing. If you ask me though, I think they should just say something, ‘cause it’s like the worst-kept secret of all time anyway.

Eden: What would happen if they did officially get together?

Haru: Ji-Soo would probably lose her job. I mean, think of it like getting into a relationship with somebody you essentially work for. Like a nurse hooking up with a patient or something.

Eden: Yeah, I can see how that’d be a problem. But like, if that were you, wouldn’t you ask yourself if your job is more important than the person you love?

Haru: Yeah, I would. I love what I’m doing now, and it’s really important to me, but if I had to choose between this and a person I loved, you know what? I’d give all of this up in a heartbeat.

Eden: Hopefully it’ll never come to that. I hope you get to have it all.

Haru: If I’m lucky, and things keep going the way they’re going, maybe I will.

[thefirstknife]

I think one reason people are very polarized on LF is that, not only is it a very fine line to walk between "too self-contained" and "too reliant on external content", but there's a large borderlands around that line on either side that fall into the realm of "personal taste". Some people like things that are more self-contained, and some prefer things that are more externally interlinked. And, honestly, even at the extreme ends of "purely self-contained" or "purely empty filler reliant on external stuff to enjoy" you *still* have people who prefer one or the other and they're not objectively bad. It's a complicated matter of balance and taste. And I think more people need to let go of the idea that their taste is objectively correct for things like this. And I say this as somebody who did find that my taste and the devs' vision didn't quite line up this time. It happens! It doesn't mean we need to get nasty about it like a lot of people are doing... :(

I definitely agree! It's one of the reasons why I find most of the discussions on this topic to be really pointless a lot of the time. It's just people screaming over one another about things that are incredibly subjective while claiming they're not. Everyone thinks they're right, on top of a real issue in balancing that line.

For a lot of people, it's really frustrating that the game expects them to play just Destiny in order to understand everything. And then for a lot of other people who DO play just Destiny (or simply have more time/money), it's frustrating when there's breaks and content droughts and when there's seasons that end up feeling meaningless. And a lot of people who are in between! Bungie can never satisfy all of them. Someone will always feel left out.

Actually one of my issues with the entire Witch Queen year was that the expansion itself was a banger and had a lot of stuff in there and a lot of further hints. But then the seasons did not really focus on any of those questions at all. We didn't get more insight into the Lucent Hive, we didn't get more about Savathun's meddling with the Collapse, we didn't get anything more about her since she died, we didn't get anything substantial about Xivu either and time is running out. We had stuff that was setting up plot points for Lightfall, but they were also not fully expanded on.

I would've LOVED if all seasons in WQ were more narratively important and connected. If every season we got a fresh new hint about Savathun's plans and schemes, about things she's done, about a whole new set of Hive that, for all intents and purposes, we should be trying to understand and get close to. I'm definitely not the only one; I've seen a lot of people lamenting the lack of information and lore about the Lucent Hive and what they're doing.

If Bungie is entirely truthful and we will for real get into the thick of it during the seasons this year, I actually prefer that. It means that I have something to look forward to during the whole year and that we will slowly be given information about burning questions that will keep us entertained as we prepare for The Final Shape. Because a lot of questions from WQ have still not been answered and aren't directly relevant anymore so who knows when they will be up for answering.

I also understand people who just don't like this style at all. And neither of us is inherently right or wrong. So when people go online and insist about "bad writing," it's really silly. And ultimately, Bungie can't really cater to us both. It's a strange place to be in and I think we should keep giving Bungie feedback. In a normal way, of course. The type of outrage that Lightfall caused has not been pleasant at all. We can definitely let Bungie know that they maybe pushed one side too much over the line without being nasty.

i think there's a lot to be said, on both sides, for "this thing is the mostest popularest thing in The Real World but is not seen as an actually valid thing in online/lefty spheres", because i know there tends to be that inclination to go "literally just step outside", as a response to "let's normalise/appreciate [normalised outside of a small portion of online spaces thing]", but i think that misses the mark a tiny bit. what you're saying there is "go to a place with an overall toxic view of this thing, and enjoy it in that context", when maybe the person was actually saying "i feel like the spheres i've aligned with politically don't have a healthy view of this either, so where am i supposed to go?" and that's not always the case, it is definitely obviously often said disingenuously or whatever, but it probably is best to still respond with more care in those cases, if there's a chance doing so may even disarm the initial statement.

express "yes, obviously having a left wing environment that sees things in a less toxic way than the outside world would be better, therefore if a thing can be done in a non-toxic way, we should be entirely willing to normalise doing so". i'll give an example, i have mentioned this before, i tend to prefer skinny people [lefties feel completely free to gasp in horror] in dating, it's not a "those just inherently objectively are hotter", that's nonsense, i don't think it makes someone objectively hot if i find them hot, or not if i don't either, and i have found some larger people hot, it's just a trend i found in who i tend to like. i have introspected, it's not bigoted (i probably won't go into kink/s too much rn, but kneecaps sexy), i really also don't think it is healthy to overanalyse your every little thought for Signs Of Bad. obviously, outside of lefty spaces, the norms are "skinny, but not too skinny = hot", but you may see an enormous difference between that and what i said. i said "idk it's literally just a personal preference that doesn't mean anything in objective terms" and society says "no this person is objectively a hotter person than that one", and when somebody says that they found lefty spaces immediately assumed they meant the latter if what they meant was the former, and responded to it with some variation of "only dogs like bones", that's a problem with that one lefty space, that's simply reversing society's negative behaviour. saying "just go outside" is saying "go live in the fatphobia world".

no it doesn't happen that much, it's something i've mainly found happens in moderately toxic discord servers with a few newbies, who's politics have barely evolved past "society bad", but yes, it's actually essential that lefty spaces don't jump to conclusions, to demonise and assume the worst of people, and disallow them to pursue a thing in the context of a healthier environment. but i do wanna note there's better examples than this, it's only one i have personal experience of seeing happen, that feeds into another i'll sometimes see, where anorexia is seen as a personal failing we'd better shame and insult, rather than a mental illness and way we sometimes exist that deserves as much acceptance as others in reality, one that is not as accepted and adored in society as folks who's body positivity activism begins and ends at "world hate all fatness, therefore world like all smallness, therefore smallness is actually bad" think, which is an overly simplified binary (as better expressed in a post somebody made about how the world really doesn't want lesbians to be bi or bi people to be lesbians, it's just hating both, but experiencing life as one or the other may cause people to feel that the world likes the other). and i think being an informative, non-judgemental sphere that can recognise such a nuanced situation, and allow people a non-toxic space to have a particular emotion or experience, instead of saying "no, go have those things in a space with a toxic outlook", is more mature tbh.

"normalise masuline men" is sometimes a shitty conservative, in disingenuous attempt to weaponise lefty language against trans people or gnc people, and sometimes some lib gay masc4masc, who's tired of being told he should try femboys, by a toxic friend circle that doesn't understand that's not how it works. yeah, this purportedly left space should accept any gendered expression, i think. i think him seeing masculinity in a positive light, and being supported in his tastes by his friends, is better than them saying "literally just go outside [where all the toxic masculinity is, and i'll additionally add, where being gay at all isn't accepted, even that masc4masc guy, if anything he'd be seen as defying a gendered stereotype himself because both 'wear the pants']". if you cannot surpass your urge to shrug somebody off, and see complexity in statements like this, you're really not a very good lefty advocate. (additionally, more femboy for me, masc4mascs are a blessing).

do you have any more yandere/possessive kyle brain juice?? 👀👀

Oh~ I see I got a risk taker here 💅

I wouldn’t say I’m into the idea of Kyle going all yandere on Cartman, cause I just don’t see that happening because I feel it’s too far off from his character unless it’s some gag then maybe?

However, I DO see him sabotaging alot of Cartman’s relationships like some crazy obsessive psychopath.

If Cartman were to marry somebody while he’s actually been around Eric for the longest time waiting patiently for an opportunity, then yes, you could bet he would try sabotaging the wedding and if he fails he’ll try to break their marriage somehow.

I see Kyle as this sly bitter man who wants things handed to him even if he outright says outloud that people have to work hard to get what they want to archive. And yes, you could see Kyle working his ass off for superficial things, to boost his imagine as a man who has got his shit together.

However behind walls he's far from that, he's a sad lonely broken man who's only goal in life is to pursue this image of what's considered normal for a man his age "follow the typical stereotypes" of what you're supposed to be doing instead of what he truly would want to do.

And the only mistake he's done is not working or even attempting to change his relationship with Cartman; the only person worth Kyle's wait.

The only person he'd dive deep inside a abyss for, actually make an effort to change, the only person who'll give him that life he so desperately craves; one that isn't planned, one that's unexpected, thrilling in a sense. He loves how unpredictable Cartman is and what chaotic things it'll bring alongside with into his life.

They're ladies that come and go; Kyle is shit when it comes to relationships cause he is a closeted cartmansexual! Jsjsjs he's so down bad for Cartman man, he subconsciously puts their dynamic onto the women he's dating sometimes just to make it 'spicy' and interesting, even being an ass and intentionally forcing them to eat more.

It's sad cause it's shown in canon that Cartman can move on from this obsession with Kyle but Kyle can't.

He so craves Cartman's soul to be only bonded to him even if denies it with a passion.

He'll preferred a hundred times over the choice of Cartman being just as alone and miserable as him than for Cartman to be happy with out him.

So I can picture him snapping at some point, photoshopping Cartman with some woman making it look he was having an affair and sending it to his wife and anonymously spreading doubts to her.

Considering in this au I see Kyle being still considered a "close friend" for Cartman and his family. I see Cartman's wife knocking at the door in the middle of the night with just her night robe and slippers on while her makeup was a pouring mess. Kyle feigned ignorance and added a small gasp which was completely fake, "what happened, Elizabeth?" He rested his hand on her shoulder to mimic sympathy, gesturing inside, "come on in, I'll make you a cup of coffee."

She explained with full detail of what happened as Kyle nodded attentively while sipping his cup of coffee.

"I just- why would Eric ever do this to me? I never thought he'd be the type of man that-" she began bawling once more; devastated. Kyle wince by the noise she emitted.

Kyle denies with his head now feigning disbelief despite wanting to kick her out and get back to bed, "well, it is Cartman and I did warned you before marrying him that he was— something."

She wiped her tears, nodding now "understanding" Kyle's "concerning" intentions before, "you always been such a great friend, Kyle," she smiled sadly standing up from the table as she approached him as he rested himself in the counter.

"I should've just listened to you from the start, you we're just worrying for me and I shoved all away your warning and I'm so sorry," she grabbed Kyle's free had in a pleading gesture.

Kyle had to hold back a mischievous smile, before placing his cup in the counter, "no hard feelings he's quite a good actor."

"So you do believe he actually did cheat? Tell me the truth, Kyle, you know him better than anyone-"

'You got that right,' Kyle thought shallow.

"You're his friend so you must know if he do such thing."

'Surprisingly he would not, but you should know that if you actually knew him.'

"Look Elizabeth," he shush her hand away courteously, as he touched the tiles of the counter with his fingers, "Cartman's my friend, but I can admit when he's a bigoted selfish lying dick. Trust me, he definitely cheated on you."

Elizabeth bawled even harder and smash her face against Kyle's chest, Kyle looked at her in disgust cause he knew damn well she was gonna leave all her damn snot all over his pj's.

After a couple of minutes she calmed down and immediately came on to him, grabbing his arm and pressing her knee against his crotch, whispering in a sultry manner, "maybe I should try paying him back with the same coin?"

Any man would've folded, however Kyle wasn't one of them unfazed and indifferent to her provocative touch.

Kyle thought for a moment, this would definitely guarantee Cartman leaving her. However if he ever found out he was the one to had slept with her Cartman would never forgive him for it.

Besides, a easy slut like her was not deserving of his body, so he pushed her away denying with his hand, "I'm not the type of man who'll volunteer in adultery. Besides, Cartman's still my friend whatever goes on with you guys isn't my issue to get involved with." He smiled lightly, "however I do wish you much luck."

And with that she left quite bitter for being rejected but took it as initiative to start packing her shit and leave Cartman.

Kyle smiled proud and accomplished of himself while taking another sip of his now cold coffee.

I always want to hear work based horror stories

I call this one: confetti catastrophe.

I wasn't actually there when it initially happened, but I was there for the last of it. So, keep in mind check-in hours go pretty late into the night. So it could be 11 pm or 12 am and you could still check into a room.

So, one night a woman checks into the hotel and all seems normal. She books a room with two beds, gets her keys and goes up the elevator to her room. According to what the lady who worked that night said, it was just her and then, later, a small crowd of people followed carrying things. Think a group of 6 or 7, with children at least ages 12 and younger.

The lady didn't think anything of it, so nobody realized something was up until early in the morning. I finally arrived to work, around 8 or 9 am, and got my list of rooms to clean. I was also told to bring a broom to a room cause they called requesting one. That's pretty normal: some people prefer to clean up their rooms themselves during their stay, instead of having housekeepers tidy up for them.

So, I'm taking the elevator up and I'm feeling good. My hope in humanity, and my career, in tact. Honestly it's still on the fence these days, but this was a huge strike. The elevator doors open, I look beyond the mini lobby into the hallway and there I see it: confetti. It's on the carpeted floors of the hallway, and I'm just thinking oh no. I walked out into the hallway and the majority of it was covered in confetti. Somebody had dumped confetti all down the halls and left it.

As I'm trying not to burst from sheer fucking rage, confusion and stress, I go to the room the requested a broom. What I didn't know at the time: it was the room that the woman mentioned earlier checked into.

So, if everything else wasn't a red flag, this was. A child in a onesie opened the door. She looked to be about ten years old, ish. I didn't question it, asked if they were the room that requested the broom. Little girl nodded her head with a smile, and I'm noticing she's keeping the door kinda narrowed, so I couldn't see in the room. I thought it was smart of her, as bad as it was that she opened the door in the first place, but whatever. I hand her the broom and said "when you're finished, please leave it by the housekeeping closet next to the elevator". Spoiler: that never happened.

So, I go downstairs and I tell my assistant manager (AM) what I saw in the hallways. She couldn't believe it, so I brought her up to show her. She is baffled. In all her years of working in the hotel industry, she was never so shocked by the sight of something. That's when we start to put the pieces together, because the night shift employee did mention to AM about there being some sus people that checked into the hotel.

So, the people from that very room called down, and they let us know they will be checking out late. Keep in mind, check out time ends at 11 am. For every hour after that, people are charged a fee for late checkout (you are required to have a card on file in case of situations like this, so they were charged). We're like okay, no worries. Happens all the time.

So, after almost a fucking hour of vacuuming that hallway, getting all in the corners and under the doors (because confetti was so spread out it was going under the doors and into other rooms), trying to get up as much confetti as possible. Alas, my efforts were in vain. It took weeks for us to get all the confetti vacuumed up.

Fast forward: it is 1 pm, we haven't heard or seen any of the people from that room come out except for once. When they had come down they were exiting the hotel with something, and we asked if they were done and ready to check out. They said no, they still needed to go back up and grab something. Okay. Kinda sus, but as long as they're quick it's fine... No.

The time comes when me and my AM are fed up. We decide ya know what? We're gonna go up there and see what the fuck is going on. We knock on the door, which had more confetti suddenly under it, three times. Announced "front desk" each time. Opened the door... and fucking hell I almost had a stroke from sheer fucking rage.

The broom? In the corner. Multiple piles of confetti, pieces of paper and whatever else. Towels, sheets, blankets and pillow cases that all had to be thrown out because the stains were so bad. A bowl of raviolis that was hardly touched, left sitting on the desk. Confetti in the bathtub. Stains on the floor that we had to call the MM to scrub off. Confetti in the goddamn AC filters. Smell? Terrible. The only good thing that came out of that room was a fucking quarter, and you know I took that home and put it in the coin jar.

Turns out the AM and I were naïve and too trusting that these people would check out like normal people. They didn't even bring back the keys: they left the keys in the room. They snuck out, knowing they left a mess. We believe they were holding a late-night children's birthday party in the room, and chose to do it at a hotel cause they wouldn't have to clean it up.

That room was put out of order for several days. The MM, myself and another housekeeper all took part in cleaning that room. It was a nightmare.

Draken, Chifuyu, Mitsuya, the Kawata twins and Kazutora in:

When they see you with your ex.

Disclaimer: E/N means Ex's name. The ex changes gender for each one to be more exclusive I'm sorry if it feels confusing. Kazutora's has mild angst but otherwise this is really sfw.

🌟 Draken

☆ He'd kinda crashed Mikey and Emma's day out. You'd told him you had something to do this weekend so what else was he supposed to do with his free time? The three of them had stopped to eat on the outdoor patio at a nice restaurant and while Emma and Mikey chatted away about something school related. Draken sat quietly sipping his tea.

☆ You'd been kinda weird when he'd asked why the two of you couldn't hang out today. You didn't even tell him what it was you were doing instead. And you always told him literally everything about your life. Sometimes unprompted.

• "Hey, isn't that Name?" Emma's voice suddenly caught his attention.

• "Who's the guy?" Mikey questioned in between bites of his food.

☆ Draken's head shot in the direction Emma had pointed in. Sure enough there you were, talking with a guy who was about the same height as Draken. Weirdly enough Draken felt like he'd seen this guy somewhere before.

• "Is that?.. E/N?"

☆ Draken squinted still staring at the two of you talking. You didn't exactly look happy but you and your ex were standing way too close. He felt a little pang in his heart.

• "Maybe she just.." Emma cut herself off. Your arm came up to wrap around your ex's neck. Pulling him in for a hug which he just as soon reciprocated.

• "Let's just go." Draken said and Emma seemed to immediately agree. As soon as Draken and Emma squeezed back into the open doors of the restaurant Mikey hightailed it in the opposite direction.

• "Dammit Mikey!"

• "Mikey!" Emma called but it was definitely too late for that.

☆ Mikey ran up behind you tapping your shoulder as Emma and Draken made their way down to the scene that was now forming.

• "Are you cheating on Ken chin?" Mikey questioned with zero hesitation. His face stern and his shoulders bared.

• "Mikey.." You said

• "I would've preferred to do this later." Draken grit. Though Mikey didn't even spare him a glance.

• "This is.. your new boyfriend right?" E/N asked

• "Name." Emma began "I know you wouldn't cheat on Draken.."

☆ You sighed putting some space between Mikey who looked two seconds away from punching someone and your ex whose confusion seemed to grow the longer this went on.

• "I'm not, I would never.." You sighed before continuing on. "He's dating my friend now and since we had some bad blood between us.. I figured I should try to get along with him since he's staying in my life. But I'm so sorry Ken Ken, I should've told you yesterday when you asked."

☆ Mikey stepped to the side as you held out your hand for Draken to take. He wasted no time pulling you into his arms, pressing a kiss to the top of your forehead.

• "Don't ever do this again."

• "Go out with my ex without explaining myself? Or get caught going out with my ex without explaining myself?"

• "All of it." Mikey interjected, hands placed in his pocket but his normal smile was starting to reappear.

• "Go home you two. I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon with these two."

• "Oh? Is it because you're worried something will happen?" You asked Draken laced your finger tips slipping your hand into his pocket.

• "I was never worried, I just wanted to spend time with you." He explained

☆ Definitely should've just invited him in the first place because within a couple hours your ex and Draken have become better friends than the two of you were supposed to be.

🌟 Chifuyu

☆ Him and Takemichi decided to spend the afternoon in Chifuyu's favorite manga shop since sitting at home had become tiresome.

☆ Takemichi had organized a small pile of books around his body like a nest while Chifuyu just searched the aisles aimlessly. He didn't have a book in mind before coming here so he figured he'd pick one out from his favorite section once they got there.

• "Hey Chifuyu?" Takemichi looked up as Chifuyu flipped through one book while he held another in his hand.

• "I can't buy both of these. Takemichi which one do you think is better?"

• "Isn't that Name?" Takemichi pointed over the stack of books on his left sure enough just outside the aisle was you with a girl chatting away.

• "Who's the girl Name's talking with?" Takemichi asked looking up at Chifuyu, though Chifuyu had already ducked his way behind the bookshelf peering out of the aisle at the current scenario.

• "What the hell are you doing?" He asked coming over.

• "That's Name's ex."

• Takemichi fell in line next to Chifuyu peering over his head, "I didn't know Name dated girls too.."

• "Yeah.. it's not a big deal.." Chifuyu said as the two of you giggled about something a couple feet away.

• "If it's not a big deal why are we hiding?"

• "Shh!" Chifuyu ducked back as you and your ex walked a little ways away. "Come on let's follow them."

• "Why don't we just go talk to them?" Takemichi followed reluctantly.

• "I don't want Name to think I came here because I was stalking-"

☆ Just as Chifuyu had made it to the next aisle he tripped over a snag in the carpet causing an oblivious Takemichi to bump into him. A loud oof from both of them alerting you and your ex of their presence.

• "Chi?" You called annndd now you were coming over. "Hey Chi, what are you doing here?"

• "This is my favorite manga place." Chifuyu answered with a grunt, stepping into the aisle.

• "I know.. I just thought you and Takemichi would be at your place."

• "What's going on?.. This is what you were busy with?" He gestured between the two of you.

• "Chi." You stepped forward and Chifuyu took one step back. "You know how me and, E/N are childhood best friends and how my grandmother is sick right now? My grandmother is basically a second mother to her so she invited me out to take my mind and her's off things, She suggested we come in here and I said ok but it wasn't right of me to not tell you, I'm sorry baby."

☆ Chifuyu looked between you and your ex his eyes slowly beginning to soften.

• "I'm not mad love. It was just weird you don't normally do underhanded things like this." He pulled you into his chest for a hug and you wrapped your arms around his waist.

• "You should come with us." E/N said pointing to Chifuyu and Takemichi. "Name won't stop talking about how wonderful you are as a boyfriend anyway."

☆ A bright pink flutters over both you and Chifuyu's cheeks as Takemichi snickers behind you both.

• "Next time you can bring Hina and we can make this into an outing." Chifuyu said, poking Takemichi in his side with his elbow before wrapping his arm around your midsection.

☆ You guys probably end up staying in the store for a couple more hours honestly because if there's anything you and Chifuyu have in common it's your love for manga.

🌟 Mitsuya

☆ He'd been running errands for his mother all morning so by the time he reached the supermarket he was completely exhausted. He pushed his shopping cart through the aisles with a long sigh, checking off items as he went.

☆ He rounded the last corner glad that his day was nearly over and already thinking about what he was going to prepare for dinner when the sound of your voice caught his attention.

☆ His first assumption was that he was so tired he was imagining it but the airy ring of your laugh soon validated his suspicions. You'd told him you were hanging out with friends today after all.

☆ He grabbed the last thing on his list deciding to go say hi. He wheeled the cart directly into the next aisle walking up as you and a person he didn't recognize were having a chat with an elderly woman.

• "You two are so cute together." The woman gestured with a small smile.

• "Oh.. no we're exes and friends." E/N explained

• "Aw I'm sorry things didn't work out for you two." The woman nodded

☆ You opened your mouth to respond but Mitsuya's warm gaze caught your attention first.

• "Suya, hey!" You greeted, walking over to greet your boyfriend with a small hug.

• "That's the actual boyfriend." Your ex explained to the woman.

• "This is the friend you told me about yesterday?" Mitsuya asked looking at your ex with a blank expression.

☆ The tension in the aisle could be sliced with a knife and the lady from before quickly walked away to another side of the store.

• "We are just friends now I promise. There's nothing going on between us and they're having a party tonight that's why we're here." You gestured to your ex who awkwardly waved back. "I was going to invite you later so that you could sneak out when Luna and Mana are asleep."

• Mitsuya nodded his expression softening as he reached up to cup your cheek, "I wish you had just explained that earlier, next time just tell me I won't be angry."

• "I will, I promise." You gave him a quick peck which he reciprocated. "I'm going to head with Suya but I'll see you at the party later?" You asked turning to your ex.

• "Yeah, I'll see you then." They replied as they left.

☆ And yeah sure Mitsuya said he was cool with it but you two ended up skipping the party and after dinner you both stayed in bed all night.. (Do with that what you will. 🙃)

🌟 Nahoya/Smiley

☆ You'd only been dating Nahoya for a month and everyday you two met up at the same place after school.

☆ Sometimes (like today) he'd grab Souya/Angry and head out to meet you. Today the three of you were just supposed to grab a quick bite to eat before heading to the Toman meeting.

☆ The second the two of them had stopped their bikes Souya pointed you out where you were holding a box and talking to some stranger.

• "Who's that guy?" Nahoya's grin tightened as he watched the way the guy yapped away while you just silently listened.

• "He looks like somebody." Souya pondered for a second before his gaze fell on his brother. "I recognize his face he was in some picture on Name's wall."

☆ Nahoya didn't wait another second to storm over to the situation Souya trotting along behind with his teeth grit.

• "What the hell is this?" Nahoya grunted though his smile never wavered. The indent of anger extremely noticeable on his forehead.

• "Hoya, this is E/N he-"

• "E/N as in your ex?" Souya chimed up before you could finish.

• "You invited your ex here when you knew I was coming? What kind of shit are you pulling here Name?"

☆ His smile began to dip at the edges but it was obvious he was trying to keep up his natural facade. His fists clenching at his side, book bag carefully slipped into Souya's arms behind him.

• "I just needed my stuff back, I promise." You tried to explain, shaking the box in your possession for Nahoya to see.

• "I didn't mean to intrude on your-"

• "You shut the fuck up!"

• "Hoya!"

• "So you thought you should invite him on our date? Are you trying to piss me off?"

• You stomped your foot exasperation slowly starting to take over in your face and tone. "Hoya, I didn't invite him! I told him I was here and he's gonna be on vacation for three weeks but I needed my camera back." You hold up the camera that you'd fished from the box, Desperation thick in your voice. "So he decided to drop my stuff off with me and you just happened to get here before he could leave." You rest your fingertips on the bridge of your nose. Glad for the silence that soon arises.

• "I should go." Your ex whispers doing a little scoot around Nahoya who still hadn't completely cooled off.

• "Hey, stop it." Nahoya grips your chin pulling your shaky form closer to himself. "You should've just asked me to get your shit for you."

• You muster a little giggle, sniffling and wiping your face with the back of your hand. "You would've kicked his ass then brought me my stuff."

• "He would've deserved it."

☆ You pull Nahoya closer though he's still a little hesitant to return your affection.

• "Let me make it up to you please? You and Souya." You turn to Souya who's still holding both his and Nahoya's backpacks.

• "You're paying for lunch today." Nahoya replies pulling you into his side. He lowers his voice leaning into your ear as Souya walks ahead to his bike. "And if I ever see that jackass again I'll break his jaw."

🌟 Kazutora

☆ Baji and him had spent the day riding their motorcycles until they decided to take a break not too far away from the shrine where Toman meetings were always held.

☆ They soon found themselves parking their bikes and skipping stones by the riverbed.

• "So, why is it that you're hanging out with me instead of your partner today?" Baji asked as his stone plopped into the water.

• "They said they had something going on." Kazutora replied

• "If I was with someone that gorgeous I'd be willing to go with them but whatever."

• "Maybe you should have someone before you start dishing out relationship advice."

☆ Baji grinned wide throwing a soft punch which Kazutora caught with a snicker pretending to right hook him. It soon lead into a chase with Baji dodging all of Kazutora's playful jabs walking backwards and making sound effects to go along with each swipe of his fists.

☆ Baji grabbed both of Kazutora's fists pushing him back until he nearly tumbled onto his ass. His laugh unbridled in its volume.

• "Come here Kazutora I'll show you how to throw a real punch."

• "What the fuck.." Kazutora's gaze followed two people walking along the path that went just overhead.

☆ Baji's head whipped around to track Kazutora's gaze stopping on the two people walking side by side almost out of sight at this point.

• "Is that-" Kazutora was nearly gone by the time Baji had processed the words. "Hey!" He called out running to catch up but Kazutora had already sprinted to the top of the bank, jogging along to catch up to the people they'd spotted.

• "Name!" His voice boomed closing the distance scarily quick.

☆ You'd stopped dead in your tracks, turning to face the chilling look in your boyfriend's eyes as he stood before you. Baji right behind and practically out of breath.

• "Who is that?" Kazutora pointed

• "Tora.. baby don't freak out.."

☆ His earring clinked against his face as he stared into your eyes.

• "Are you leaving me now? Is that it?"

• "Tora!" You huff, putting your hands out.

• "Kazutora.." Baji called out already sensing the weight of the situation.

• "She's my ex but listen-"

• "So you are cheating on me.." Kazutora's jaw locks and when you reach out for his sleeves with pleas of his name he just slaps your arms away.

☆ When he leaves he runs for his bike. His leg anchored over the side already gripping the handle bars tightly when Baji's loud scream of his name rips through the air.

☆ He's got his bike out of park but just as he starts to drive away you dash out from nowhere and yank his handle bar.

• "Dammit Tora listen to me!!" You beg, he can clearly see the beginnings of tears stinging the corners of your eyes as you hold onto the hand still clutching his handlebars.

• "What could you possibly say? That it didn't mean anything? That you love me?!"

• "Yes! I do love you! You mean everything to me! I needed to be with E/N today because her mom went missing a couple days ago! The woman that took me in and loved me all my life is out there somewhere and no one knows anything about it so dammit Kazutora if you love me even half as much as I love you, don't leave me right now!"

☆ You latched onto his jacket letting your loud sobs fill the now quiet air.

• "You told me.. You love me.." His whispered tone barely reaches your ears as you continue to choke on your own tears.

• "I.. love you.. Tora.." You hiccuped

☆ His arms wrapped gently around your waist, face deep in the crook of your neck as you slowly began to relax.

• "I'm sorry." You felt him tremble as he held you closer than he ever had before. "I love you.." He reciprocated. "I'm here.."

🌟 Souya/Angry

☆ Souya tended to listen more than you realized. Like when you go on and on about a band you absolutely adore to the point where he stays up until almost 12 am to snag tickets for the two of you to go see them on the weekend. And this was that weekend.

☆ He'd been nearly bursting with excitement over it and now he could finally surprise you with the news after holding it in for a solid week.

☆ He parked his bike across the street from your house, reaching into his jacket pocket for the umpteenth time to check that both tickets were there. After a few more minutes of preparing, blowing into his hand to check his breath, smoothing his sweaty hands over his jacket. He rung your doorbell. The heel of his toe tapping against the floor as he waited for you to answer.

☆ When the door finally opened a person much taller than Souya answered.

• "Yup." The person pursed their lips one hand on the tool belt wrapped around their waist. For a second Souya pondered if he'd somehow rung the wrong doorbell until he looked at the number in plain view embellished on your door front.

• "Who are you?" It definitely came off more aggressive thanks to Angry's naturally violent resting face.

☆ Before the person could answer you came bounding down the stairs, pulling the door open wider.

• "Why the hell would you answer my door?" You spit at the person standing beside you as you pull your boyfriend inside, shutting the door behind him.

• "I think you mean thank you."

• "Fuck off." You tell the person who was already walking back to the kitchen.

☆ The naturally angry imprint on Souya's face seems to deepen as he makes eye contact with you.

• "I wish you had called." You sighed, tugging Souya into the living room by his jacket sleeves.

• "Who the hell is that?"

• "You remember how I said my ex is in the remodeling business.."

• "That's your ex?"

• "Yes but listen! If I work with him I can get a discount, I just want that wall taken out to open up the space a bit more." You gesture to the kitchen where your ex is currently examining the wall. "I would've told you sooner but between my friend coaxing me into doing this remodel and that drunk night with you and Nahoya it was hard to find time."

☆ Souya dipped his hands into his pockets, staring blankly into the distance. His brow furrowed deeper than normal and his foot tapped against the hardwood.

• "If you're uncomfortable with this I'll get someone else.."

• "Get someone else."

• "Wait before you answer." You scoot closer to your still ticked boyfriend and he makes eye contact with you again. "This kind of remodel normally costs way more than the bargain I'm getting with them."

☆ Souya blinked blankly at you.

• "Sou plllleeeeaaasssee, you can be here whenever they are." You gesture to the kitchen.

• "No I can't I have a job."

• "Fine.. I'll call you the entire time." He sighed with a roll of his eyes. And you rubbed both his arms with a long groan of his name. "How about this, I bring you and them to dinner. Once you see how disinterested I am you might be more for it."

• "Not worried about you, I'm worried about them." His forehead rubbed against yours and you giggled.

• "I promise I only love you."

• "Would you love me more if I got tickets to your favorite band for today?"

• "I'm never leaving you." You proclaim wrapping your arms tightly around Souya's midsection. "That's a proposal by the way we're engaged now. I don't make the rules."

• "E/N I'm engaged now!" You yell towards the kitchen.

• "I heard, congrats!" They yelled back

☆ Souya just scoffed but his cheeks bloomed into the deepest shade of red as he walked upstairs with you to your bedroom to help you pick out an outfit for the concert.

✨Self Care Methods for the Moon Signs 🌙

creds to: @omgits_ella on instagram

♨️Aries Moon: i feel like the best self care methods for aries moon placements is something physical. like, maybe it’s a specific hobby you guys enjoy that takes up your entire attention but it’s also something that you take your energy out on. maybe it’s excerising, working out, or maybe something like.. my best friend with an aries moon binges competivite video games. something that you can really focus on to distract you & consume you so that negative energy doesn’t project to your loved ones.

🧸Taurus Moon: the best self care method for taurus moon placements i feel like would be taking things slow. taking your emotions & physical needs/things at your own pace and indulging in your needs. i’m not saying go do whatever you want, i’m saying that i understand that you need time to process your emotions, take that time. take care of yourself along the way but make sure you’re not throwing others to the side for your usuage, and going down the bad route. things happen for a reason and sometimes we just have no control over what’s happening. accepting that at the end of everyday you’re going to be okay is crucial, and understanding that the things you have learned can be seen as lessons instead of negative views/thoughts, which can prevent you from running into further problems in the future.

🗣Gemini Moon: the best self care method for gemini moons would be VENTING. they need somebody to talk to about what is going on in their head or else they feel scatterbrained and not “all there.” gemini is ruled by mercury, so gemini moons are prone to feeling more anxious than other signs. they usually just like to play it off. if they don’t talk to anybody and they don’t let out all this mercurial energy, they are prone to shutting down for awhile or using distractions to runaway from their inner thoughts in order to cope. they are also popular for using humour to cover up their emotions so everything seems “fine.” they need someone to talk to that is healthy for them, that stimulates them in the right ways, and is somebody that they trust. they only want to talk when THEY want to so give them their space and time and surely they will come to you.

🦀Cancer Moon: the best self care method for cancer moons i feel like would be comfort. comforting yourself with whatever your needs are. whether that be spending time with your loved ones, indulging in your comfort foods, or maybe even helping somebody else out. doing whatever you need to help process your emotions in a positive way, but remembering not shell up and push the ones you love around you away. remembering to keep that balance between your needs & others needs.

🎭Leo Moon: the best self care method for leo moons would be to pamper yourself. make yourself feel good, make yourself feel like yourself again. go out with friends, go on adventures, explore new hobbies, express yourself. don’t take it too far though and go down the wrong route, remembering to watch yourself to remain in that healthy mindset. surround yourselves with those you hold close & would do anything for, and remember to take care of yourselves.

🌷Virgo Moon: the best self care method for virgo moons i feel like would be journaling. virgo is ruled by mercury which can make virgo moons more anxious than other signs whether they show it or not. similiar to gemini moons, if they don’t let out all of this mercurial energy, they can feel disconnected trying to figure all of their emotions out. feeling “not all there” like gemini moons. since virgo is a more private sign than gemini, they don’t usually like to talk about their emotions much because of the earth influence. they don’t like being vulnerable unless they trust you. that’s why i think virgo would be interested in journaling rather than venting, they could keep their emotions to themselves but they can write out their feelings to let out this mercurial energy. it could also help them organize their emotions by jotting them down, letting them realize and understand what they’re feeling. basically it helps you rationalize your emotions, which is what they’re all about doing in their head. this is just a more organizing way to do it in my opinion.

🥂Libra Moon: the best self care method for libra moons i feel like would be taking time for yourself. doing the things that you need to do for YOURSELF, and to stop caring so much about how other people perceive you, and what they want from you or for you. surround yourself with the people you trust, and people you know are going to be there for you. take the time out of your day to do special things for yourself, maybe induldge in your favorite foods or your favorite hobby. use positive affirminations with yourself, remind yourself that it’s not all about what others think. your voice matters. you matter. what you think matters more than what anyone else thinks of you. keep reminding yourself of the good things about yourself using those positive affirminations. you deserve good things.

🖤Scorpio Moon: the best self care method for scorpio moons i feel like would be tapping into yourself. scorpio is ruled by pluto, the planet of change and transformation. if i know anything about scorpio placements, it’s that wherever scorpio is placed is going to show you the intense changing / transformation of yourself. for you guys, it must be tough. for this placement i would reccomend doing various things. for one, i would reccomend journaling. unlike virgo moons who do it for organization of their thoughts / feelings, i feel like it would be best for you aswell because your emotions can be so intense and overwhelming that you desperately need an outlet. journaling would allow a way for you to jot down these emotions without anyone getting hurt in the crossfire, but it also allows you to understand what you’re feeling on a deeper level. it’s actually been proven that physically reading & writing on a topic can further deepen your understanding on it. it would allow you to become more comfortable with yourself and your emotional state. another method i would reccomend would be distraction. listen, i know you’re emotions are crazy overwhelming and you feel trapped by them. i know it may seem hard at the moment, but distracting yourself would allow you to process your feelings more. when you first get into an emotional situation, your feelings are so intense that you may view it as an “all or nothing” situation. you may lash out at others, say things you don’t mean, or you may shut down entirely. if you use distraction, your emotions aren’t going to feel as intense because you’re doing something else. you’ve gotta occupy your mind with something you enjoy, that consumes all of your energy so later on you will be in a more rational emotional state, and so everything just won’t seem as overwhelming. this will help you become more clear minded with your emotions, rather than acting out on your emotions.

🏹Saggitarius Moon: the best self care method for sag moons i feel like would be to go out on an adventure. do something fun with yourself or with the people you love the most. let yourself be free. express yourself and remember to use positive affirminations with yourself. surround yourself with the people you trust and talk about what you’re feeling whenever you’re ready. trust yourself, and be humble with those around you. try not to runaway from your feelings, because that only causes you to runaway from yourself. accept yourself and who you are, believe that you are capable of great things. because you are capable. believe & accept yourself, and you will go a long way.

🌻Capricorn Moon: the best self care method for capricorn moons i feel like would be letting yourself take a break. it’s a good thing to balance out your work, hobbies, and relaxation time but i know that you guys like being productive and like grinding. so i would say to balance yourself out. if you think you would be better processing your emotions by working your butt off, go for it. but remember not to overwork yourself. remember that you’re productivity does not determine your worth. or maybe give yourself some much needed relaxtion time, go out with your closest friends, and talk to people that have your back. whatever you prefer, but the idea is to allow yourself to take a step back and say, “i’ve done so much, i deserve a break.” remember to balance this though, and use it when you need it.

👾Aquarious Moon: the best self care method for aquarious moon i feel like would be giving them their space. when an aquarious moon is upset about something, the best thing they need is space to rationalize and intellectualize their emotions. they want to rationalize in their head how they feel this way, why they feel this way, and what they can they do about it. sometimes they may feel better venting / talking to somebody they trust about it, or going out with their close friends because they are prone to overthinking. maybe take up a new hobby for variety or something new. let yourself have fun, and let yourself be happy. accept yourself and trust your gut.

can i request and Akutagawa x reader first meeting in an alleyway for a mission, and Akutagawa really found an interest in her, but the reader is chuuyas sister, and Chuuya is really overprotective of her because... why not💀

you can decide whether it’s fluff or whatever i mean preferably fluff but whatever you want i’ll survive

This made me laugh out loud cause imagine Chuuya threatening Akutagawa to take care of you or else and he’s just standing there confused like 🧍 also I might have gone off track from the request so my bad 😞

CW: minor language cause it’s Chuuya and I was gonna out a spoiler warning for Akutagawa past/S2 but then I realized I didn’t name drop so we’re good 🤠

Chuuya’s not stupid.

He’s far from it really.

So he doesn’t understand why his damn sister and his subordinate think he is!

You think he doesn’t notice those longing glances Akutagawa gives you when he thinks you’re not looking? How his tone doesn’t necessarily match the harshness of his words? How he just practically became your shadow, going anywhere that you were? God, it makes him cringe when he sees how awkward he is when he tries to hold a conversation with you, sounding so stiff that he pities him. Then he remembers who he likes, and it gets his blood boiling all over again.

It’s the most obvious thing in the world that Akutagawa likes you, and even if he feels a headache coming on, he can’t help but feel a little bit sorry for him. He’s been acting as a mentor for him since his…original one left (and he still wants to beat his face in because of all the damage he’s done) but in a much better and healthier way. He’s treating Akutagawa as a real person, not just a weapon for the Port Mafia, and this included helping him in any way he could and actually bonding with him outside of their work. Neither one of them were blessed enough to have a normal upbringing, but Chuuya was going to try his hardest not to remind him of that whenever he needed him on stuff that seems simple. Like this whole situation- that he would have been more than happy to help if the crush wasn’t on his little sister!

Chuuya loves you, you’re the only family that he has, so you can’t really be mad at him for reacting this way. He dealt with you joining the Port Mafia, but to have somebody ogling at his sister on a daily basis? He’s cracking his favorite wine glass just thinking about it!

He knows that while Akutagawa “looked up” to his old mentor, didn’t mean that he was a carbon copy of the guy. He still has his own sense of morals, even if it was…twisted at times. He realizes that he’s smart and confident in his ability, but is dense as hell when it comes to anything social.

But he is cruel enough however to make him regret being born if he finds out that he did anything to you-

“Akutagawa.”

Which lead to him confronting said boy (who’s honestly confused) outside of this new cafe you’ve been dying to go to.

“I don’t know what your plan is with my sister, but it better not be any funny business! I see you trying to sneak around with her- what you think I don’t see that?! I’m not a dumbass like- GRRR just listen! If you do anything to (Y/N), I’ll swear I’ll make you regret it. I may like you, but don’t think for a second that I-“

“Won’t hesitate to crush you and blah blah blah- Are you done yet? You’re kinda spoiling our tea here.”

And then you came outside, holding onto your sweet treats waiting to be shared.

“I- shut the hell up! Who do you think you are talking to your older brother like that?!”

“Your younger sister who’s tired of you stalking us!”

“STALKING?! Excuse the hell out of me for being concerned!”

“Oh stop pouting. And just because you’re concerned doesn’t mean you have to send people to follow us every time we step out of the office.”

This was just a blow up waiting to happen, honestly. You don’t know why your brother thinks you’re just the most oblivious person on the planet, but he does. Actually oh wait- you do know why! Because he’s your dumbass older brother who thinks he knows everything and that you don’t. And you noticed how much hovering he’s been doing ever since you started hanging out with Akutagawa more.

You guys aren’t even dating!

Yet.

But that still doesn’t excuse his behavior. Sending people to follow you guys, popping up when you guys get even a millisecond alone, openly glaring at him so much that you don’t think he even realizes it anymore.

“Now can you leave us be? You’re causing a scene here and look! You’re upsetting Aku!”

“AKU?!” You even have a pet name for him now?! And poor Akutagawa is just…lost on what’s going on, along with the other bystanders.

“Anyway BYE big bro that’s ironically short, see you at home! Don’t try to kill anyone and quit being a weirdo!” You yelled, dragging Akutagawa away as quick as possible.

“Hey! Don’t walk away from me when I’m talking to you- HEY! THIS ISN’T OVER YOU TWO! I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!”

“Yeah it’s like we live at the same place or something!”

“I WASN’T TALKING TO YOU-”

You two were already crossing another street when he just gave up. The nerve of you, ugh you act too much like him sometimes. You’re too headstrong and stubborn like him, but he really is just watching out for you.

But then he sees how relaxed Akutagawa is around you, how he’s letting you in slowly but surely, and he starts to think that…there’s a chance that he might be able to deal with this-

“Wait- SHORT?!”

Then he’s foaming at the mouth again.

Bonus:

“…Aku?”

It seemed that your little nickname caught Akutagawa off guard too.

“Like it? I know I’m just the best at-”

“Don’t call me such a ridiculous name in front of people ever again.”

“Hm…so only when it’s just us, got it.”

Even if it wasn’t verbal you could tell that he agreed, if trying to turn his face away from you was any indication.

He’s not the friendliest guy, and he can be cold, but he’s trying, and you can see this going somewhere.

You can tell he does too.
