PAUL MCCARTNEY singing ‘Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five’. From ‘One Hand Clapping’ (1974)

Okay I just wanna say that I really love your writing!!! Hope you and chimmy are doing well! Can I request a drabble with merman tae and y/n's a human and they're childhood besties and tae likes her but she's a dumb little bean. I just realised how many 'ands' are in that sentence. If you don't like it then...ahem know that I still love you!!! 💖💖💖

pearl of mine

pairing: taehyung x y/n

wordcount: 5k

glimpse: merman!tae is the reason why tourists can’t find any more shells and pearls in the shore, y/n owns more beach houses than deduction skills, and concierge!yoongi’s the hero :D // gif from pinterest

notes: are u kidding me baby i love it AND you!!!! chimmy barks his regards <3

“hmm? where’s barnacle boy?”

alright there goes your peace and quiet

it’s very nice to know that where yoongi is, translates to meaning that all your peaceful thoughts automatically aren’t there

if he’s not manning the concierge, it means he’s there keeping you company!!

annoying you

your ten minutes of bliss of just having your calves dipped into the water is interrupted now but it’s ok!!

after all, yoongi’s ur right-hand man anyways!! he’s the one who keeps track of everything and you’re so close to convicing your dad to put him in the family will too

you can’t manage your family business all by yourself!! how exactly are you gonna manage fIVE of the hotels that your parents have put under your care by yourself

five of the seventeen hotels that your family owns..,.,.,

（；＿；）

your dad gives you tOO much trust and he believes in you like actually a lot

a lot more than you could ever trust yourself tbh

he doesn’t want you to take charge only when he retires or dies!! you’re his little dove and he wants you to be as immersed in your family’s group of companies

it’s generous but of course it’s hectic

which is why you’re spearheading the handling of the actual main hotel he’s put under you!!

and the rest of the less major ones, you’ve had to go through a long and tedious process for so you could find an actual trustable manager and supervisor that wouldn’t commit embezzlement and-

yoongi’s about to scare you again by nudging your lower back with his foot, but you’re ahead of him when you nip his ankle with your nails

“... it’s mermaid man.”

he scoffs out a laugh because what was supposed to be a teasing nudge for your friend that’s clearly nOT human, turned to your joke instead of his

he doesn’t need to look at his watch to know what time it was by then bc he’s practically memorized the skies and the tide at this point

every 5:20 in the afternoon, you and taehyung would meet here!!

you come outside at exactly 4:50 to give yourself some leeway into preparing whatever you’d be giving him or rather, pestering yoongi what you think you should give him for that afternoon

it doesn’t necessarily have to be grand! on most days you just make him waffles without the crusty edges (he likes it the most when it’s so hot that it was still soft and jiggly) and the filling would be whatever food he hasn’t tried yet

.... basically.......... almost everything

but now it’s 5:23 and he could tell with how the water didn’t settle to the wooden platform as well as it did when it was 5:20

yoongi could actually TELL the difference because he’s seen you do this for the four years he’s been working here

the hotel had three wings — the shore wing, the balcony-sturdy-treehouse-type of wing, and the cabana wing

you bounce all around the place because naturally, you aRE the boss here, but afternoons really were just reserved for the cabana wing

where there’s a staff cabana by one of the wooden paths that lead to it, and one specifically reserved for you and probably yoongi now lmao bc he wouldn’t take a nap anywhere else

it’s you just sitting by the deck of your cabana that houses your too-expensive waffle maker, and a cozy blanket then deck pillows outside where you lay when taehyung’s there perched by the wood

you easily have three plates always, and yoongi just goes a lil bit soft that you let him intrude your routine with the merman

but today, all that highLy seems unlikely

“he’s totally not coming,” he exaggerates all in one breath, not having the decency to wait bc he’s stuffing his cheeks full with waffles

everything’s a hit or miss with mermaid man anyways and yoongi would rather nOT try his adventures of waffles with buttered rice in between no thank u

so that’s why he’s sticking with his trusty s’mores waffle!!! :D

put chocolate spread in between while it’s STILL in the pan, then tiny little marshmallows with crushed graham crackers and 10/10 u will see heaven

he gets crumbs on your sundress and you barely even grimace because you’re used to yoongi and all his yoongi-ness at this point

“yes he is! we’ve been doing this everyday without fail for like, twelve years already.”

you know what.,.,., maybe even longer than twelve years

this one’s marked on your calendar you can just SNIFF it

what you distinctly remember is your dad picking you up from school then suddenly deciding that he’ll teach you the ropes

you knew what everything was coming to because suddenly, you’d take your daily after-school snacks at the hotel

and then your weekends were slowly merging into memorizing names and amenities

... and then sitting by your dad’s chair with a juicebox when he had meetings

then before you even realize, you’re managing five hotels under your name and a particularly large one mainly

it was when you’ve had a suckish day at school because you cannot seem to just gET the multiplication table of 7 and your dad’s chasing after you again so you could get to see the fire escape plans as “fun little puzzles!!”

ya know what maybe you should go outside

it didn’t exactly click into your young mind that holy shit your family’s LOADED

all you knew was that people greeted you left and right even if you didn’t know them and you’d always be offered stuff you didn’t even ask for :D

all you cared about was skipping by the cabanas but holding by the rope on the side bc what if you fell lmao

yet what did fall to the water beside you was your bracelet!!!

:((

a red, single-threaded, string bracelet from your wrist that must’ve gotten loose

it’s something you’ve never took off and the sheer panic in your mind was tOO HIGH

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

even before you could call out to your dad though, or any of the staff that would literally drop everything to help you, something just shifts in the water

it’s too quick for you to even decipher and the multiplication table of 7 would’ve been easier to figure out

the moment you crouch by the end of the deck was when you see it aGAIN

there’s this incredibly pretty boy that emerges from the water, only his shoulders up to his head peeking out

he most certainly didn’t look... from around here tho

your attention’s immediately fixated on your bracelet, the one on his mouth as he only tilts his head when you do the same, an eager squeal breaking him out

hold on

wait a second

you’ve seen this in the tv sometimes!!! they were uh creatures that liked being by themselves in the sea

lol which is basically every sea creature

but the narrator said something about them looking like humans???

AND BESIDES

you overhear your dad talking about them sometimes

AND THEN IT HITS

THE HANDSOME FACE!! THE SHINY PRETTY-

up and age???

opened etch????

how do u spell that again

THE TAIL!!! THE PRETTY TAIL LOOKING LIKE THING!!!

“o-oh!! you’re-...”

“t-taehyung...?”

the boy who looks like your age replies, looking unsure of himself yet didn’t want to disappoint you either

you meant merman but it’s okay!!

your hands retrieve the bracelet from his mouth, a little giggle at the complexity of the situation

he was completely sold at that

this was his first human!!! his first actual human interaction and it wasn’t really bad as what his brothers painted out to be

you and taehyung took off from then and ya know what,,, maybe you even start purposefully dropping things in the water if you feel a little impatient that he hasn’t peeked his head yet

and yes yes that’s a completely iRRESPONSIBLE thing and your dad stopped you before you could possibly throw out a whole backpack into the water

which was weird for him to look at because there’s absolutely no one he could see in the water

it was a routine that not one of you ever skipped on once!!

even if you were sick and tae thinks that it’s the most pathetic thing because he doesn’t EVER get sick??? sue him for having a cold because he’s in the water 24/7 yea

even if one was late and wouldn’t be able to see the other, there would be an item placed by the deck as proof that they were indeed there!!

tae sometimes leaves a random conch shell or even seaweed in the shape of a heart when he’s swamped with his arrangements

even if there’s a storm, which taehyung absolutely loves because the water’s all cold!!! and it gives him a fun little ride when the waves are all wonky

you leave out a lunchbox that’s snug in a fixed mailbox (you forced yoongi to attach it) by the side of the deck poles and that would count as your attendance

“yes he is! we’ve been doing this everyday without fail for like, twelve years already.”

you are totally UNBELIEVABLE

yoongi snorts, almost choking on his waffles with how hard he did it

“and you’re twelve years dumb.”

ok now you take offense

huh???

“what’s that supposed to mean?”

you can’t be any more clueless, can you??

as if on cue, there’s the familar flop and splash that you nudge yoongi to be in his best behavior

taehyung makes his afternoon appearance by outlandishly doing his trick in the air, undoubtedly giving you a splash you’re used to by now

he literally does not care at the thought of anyone possible seeing him

besides, they physically can’t anyway because there’s a spell cast onto the area, allowing nobody to see them besides you

... and yoongi ://

he’s rather grand with his gestures and his words and even before taehyung knew the common lingo on ground, you could tell he was a little more stubborn with his strong expressions

after all, taehyung’s a prince at sea but at land.,.,.,.

<3 well <3

“i’m here!”

taehyung bEAMS radiantly, making you crouch and hold out your hands, him putting his face out immediately for you to squish

“oh, oh! i got you something, y/n!”

he seems to remember out of the blue in the middle of chewing his waffles, yoongi having to suppress another sigh

the prettiest pearl necklace :-)

“tae i already told you that-...”

you’re about to start berating him again with the gifts because what seemed to be so ordinary for him is very fAR from yours

you pout and tae only pushes the necklce to you further, not taking no for answer when he had to squint his eyes extra hard to look for the pearls this morning

to be honest you have sO much jewelry from taehyung

the common theme of it was of course they’re something you could get at sEA

and whenever people ask you about them, u have no idea how to tell where you got them

today’s pearl necklace was a little different — something more dainty and smaller and wraps around your neck like a choker would, a little more suited for everyday wear

“thank you!!!”

you smooch taehyung on the cheek extra quick and it takes every fiber in his tail to stop squealing

yoongi watches you two be disgustingly sweet and PLATONIC yet again, and he could only zero in on the pearl necklace around your neck

that is the fifth time this week

that is the fifth set of pearls you’ve gotten this week

normally you’d get a pearl every now and then and the often minuature sand sculptures

but this week changes the wHOLE ball game

“do you want a pearl ring?”

taehyung wiggles his eyebrows, boxy smile on full display and he looks breathtaking in the golden hours that you immediately poke his cheek

yoongi’s eyes widen because that’s literally-

you don’t seem to find the weight on his question because you only let out a non-commital sound and whisk him away on another conversation about his day

he’s long since dropped out of yours and taehyung’s conversation, going back to the concierge because his presence is required

and he still can’t shake off how CLUELESS you are

it’s when the night gets a little more chilly and you could see taehyung go beneath the water more often, taking it as a sign that he’s going back and his brothers are looking for him

“night-night, tae.”

you offer the top of his head a kiss, rushing back to the cabana to put on your coat and right on time, you miss the way taehyung’s eyes are bigger than a goldfish’s

(@_@)

oh my god

oh my fucking god

taehyung really hATES you

he hates you so much!!!!

SO SO MUCH

he resigns back into the water and he doesn’t even move at all

just defeatedly sits on the seabed and his aura effectively puts off everything around him

his heart’s beyond heavy and his eyes sting and he never wants to resurface ever again

he’s trying not to get upset too much because his emotions have the capacity of changing the tide and it would literally resonate through the seas if he gets even more sad

taehyung’s trying to rEPRESS everything back in but it’s no use :((

“hey, hey, calm down. what’s wrong?”

his brother immediately swims to his side at the first slight tremor he felt, having only little trouble in locating him

“i-i asked y/n if she wanted a pearl-...” tae stutters and he has to physically hold his chest to not sOB at your name, an insurmountable feeling of dread at his chest 

yeah, you! namjoon knows you

in fact all his brothers know you and you’ve met each other multiple times, but not as often as you and tae did

they don’t need to see you everyday to know that taehyung is head over tails in LOVE with you

the mention of you and their brother’s gifts in the same sentence isn’t anything new

“okay? but you give her pearls all the time? and-”

“... ring.”

oh

OH

pearl ring

“yeah? and what did she say?”

joon himself tries to quell the distress he feels because taehyung’s emotions are morE than potent to affect to everyone, most especially his brothers

he sees the others swimming to them from afar, worried frowns already on their faces and namjoon doesn’t want to panic even more

“nothing!! she said nOTHING!!!!”

jungkook tilts his head, cheeks puffed out as he tries to diffuse the situation

“but tae, it could mean-...”

“nothing. y/n absolutely wants nothing to do with me!”

taehyung half-huffs and half-sobs, immediately swimming past them that leaves them confused and with a headache

this was definitely going to be a problem

it already is

today has got to be the slowest day ever

the water is so still and timid

oh my god it literally just looks like tap water in a bathtub that’s untouched

you’ve noticed in the first thing in the morning

was it nORMAL to have the water so still???? practically no waves at all??? not even ripples????

you must be losing your mind right

you dragged yoongi from the concierge desk all the way outside

he squints his eyes because the water.... is definitely not supposed to be this way....

“huh. now that’s just odd.”

some of your patrons don’t seem to mind at all because that just means they could go take their pictures without waves putting their phones at risk

but nO

most especially the swimmers n the surfers and even the lifeguard are all ????

everyone’s collectively looking at the water

yoongi takes a twig and just pokes at it to go do ATLEAST something, but even the ripples it produces are mundane

the water is too still and it makes you miss the one who makes it all better

you spend the better part of your whole day in your sundress and hanging around the cabana, yoongi scrunching his nose up at the fact that he seemed to be more active than the actual hotelier here today

“taehyung doesn’t go up for another seven hours, y’know?”

he finds you sitting by the edge of the deck, feet vigorously splashing around the water without any resistance at all that it feels so unnerving

“yea i know that... just wanted to hang out with him.”

you murmur out the last part, making yoongs do a double-take at his boss who was never this soft-spoken

“and that’s what you’ve been doing ever since childhood? sit by the edge then hang out?”

he wants to push a couple of buttons to get you out of your phase of the day today, but he only gets some insistent nodding and nothing more

“that’s so mundane. that’s literally a decade-long routine!!”

“it’s a routine i don’t mind!!”

and that’s true

it’s a routine you want to do with the rest of your life because it now feels like the equivalent of showering basically

you feel so incomplete without it and satisfaction doesn’t settle on your bones until you do it with taehyung :D

“surely, there must be sOME reason for taehyung to not get bored from doing the same thing with you, right?”

alright one more nudge

you’re considerably more perky now that’s for sure

but that doesn’t mean any less clueless unfortunately

“must be the food!!”

oh my god,,,,,, u are so dumb

he leaves you alone and you don’t even question it because you’re too busy waiting for taehyung

you expect the tide to change when it’s already noon but really, nothing happens still

5:20 passes and he still isn’t there

it’s time for dinner and yoongi has to fetch you aLL the way from the other side of the wings he needed to supervised because you’re spending all your time waiting

you were supposed to have dinner with staff tonight but you don’t even think twice in telling him to go eat without you, giving the company card more than eagerly

“don’t you think it’s time to go home?”

yoongi pipes up when they’ve finished dinner and you’re still there

he feels so sorry for you :((

“w-what if he shows up last minute?”

there’s still hope in your voice and he doesn’t want to taint it as much as people

“hey. they need sleep too. you should go get some for yourself too, okay? now just leave a cookie or something,” he has to pry you off the deck himself, not wanting to feel any more sorry for you because you’re starting to tremble with how chilly the air is

taehyung doesn’t resurface the next day

or the next

and the day after that

taehyung doesn’t show up the entire week.

you’re worried OUT of your mind and you’re tempted to just take your dad’s yacht and sail across the water to try and look for him

or oR maybe you should get one of the divers to try and look for him!!!! but no that wouldn’t work, would it??

how about you go and look for tae yourself???

yoongi’s been busy with the hotel bc the actual hotelier of it (read: you) is too busy MOPING

you’ve ditched your sundresses and waited in hoodies and sweatpants you could roll up in the morning and roll down at night to wait for him

most people don’t even recognize you as the owner and they just walk rIGHT past you when they see you in the hallways

you’ve also been stress-making waffles that you reek of the batter and butter, the staff now having an abundance of experimental ones that you’ve made

you’re definitely not okay

“uh y/n you really rEALLY need to go to sleep.,.,”

yoongi gapes at you when he visits you at the cabana, clearing his schedule out to go watch over you and bc your dad won’t sit still with how unkempt you’ve been

he gestures to the hammock you’ve always begged him to put up, but his handiwork’s wASTED because you don’t even spend more than five seconds looking at it

you should be screaming with glee by now :((

how in the world could he possibly distract you from crushing sadness and worry

he’s been brainstorming the past week and his head’s even more hollow than the decorative coconuts in the gift shop

... wait a minute

hey this has got to be his most stupid idea but the one with the most promising results!!!!!

11/10 risky but it’s the cLOSEST he could get!!

“hey do you wanna do something stupid??”

your eyes glance at him immediately because it’s the first question he’s ever asked you besides if you’re okay or when was the last time you slept or when do you intend on picking yourself up

yoongi fishes for his tablet and whips up a video immediately, only taking minutes for him to explain and seconds for you to agree

it’s what made you end up this way

it’s the reason in your swimsuit with your legs all the way inside a duvet cover and the corners of it knotted tightly on your waist

you don’t know how yoongi’s managed to convince you to race him in swimming with your whole lower body inside a king-sized dUVET cover from one of the cabanas whose guests are arriving in an hour, but here you are lmao

“first one to the furthest cabana wins, alright?”

he practically yelps in explaining in an effort to hype you up and a hundred dollars dOES seem to make him excited himself 

you’re buzzing for the first time in the week and it’s the panicked shoves you try to give each other before starting that kicks you off in an eager mood 

“GO!”

you immediately dive in and you don’t expect the heaviness of your makeshift tail behind you, momentarily cussing yourself because wHY on earth did you get the high-quality ones smh ://

oh my god this is so fucking stupid and oddly enough, you’re ENJOYING it

you can’t exactly paddle your legs fluidly like the times when they aren’t wrapped in a duvet, and the distance of the last cabana seems so tiring now that u think about it

yoongi’s already ahead and you don’t get HOW has he managed to come that far???

also not to mention that the gap between the two of you is large and now you’re just struggling to even move

also doesn’t help oNE bit with how good of a handyman yoongi also is because that is one secure knot you got there sir

it’s only dawning in you that you’re NOT well-versed in swimming!!

not even close to an expert!!! all you know are the basics

but the basics seem hard to even apply when you’re dragging a king-sized duvet cover by your legs

you’d expect more skills from someone whose family owns water-centric properties bUT NO <3

you’re flailing almost to the bottom and your eyes sting then your limbs feel heavy

you’re not necessarily drowning either, it just feels so difficult to swim back up

you’re about to try again and boost yourself up by pushing from the floor but then suddenly you’re being HAULED BACK UP

you have no chance to even try and get away because you know that the hand around your waist aren’t yoongi’s

“are you out of your goddamn mind???”

you instinctively take a big gulp of air when you come up the surface, legs fluttering now that you have some type of support to keep you up

“why would you do this?? who did this??”

the deep voice only registers in you seconds later that it’s taehyung who’s in front of you and holding you up, staring you down intensely

your puzzlement only frustrates him even more, going back down while keeping his hands on your waist before he untangles the duvet cover by your legs rather quickly and powerfully

he emerges back up and he’s looking at you with sO much stress that you wanna dive back down

“y-yoo-...”

you don’t even manage to finish speaking before taehyung snaps his gaze away from you and really yELLS

“YOONGI!!!”

as if he didn’t manage to startle you enough, he looks back at you and pats at you all over out of instinct, wanting to know if you’re hurt by any means

you’re more shocked but it’s over the fact that you’re finally seeing him again

this isn’t the first time you’ve swam with taehyung but this IS the first time in this context

you’ve never been this close to him either and you’re out of breath just by looking at him

he doesn’t seem to share the sentiment though because he looks like he’s gonna pull his hair out in both relief and frustration

“oh my god! i fucking thought that my soulmate would die in a — i-in a bedsheet!”

you are so ridiculous that it actually makes his heart clench

he intentionally didn’t come to see you for a week because he was so hurt over your rejection

he did see you from a distance and he also has a particular someone to watch over you, but he never imagined that you’d be doing THIS

his heart just minutes ago was beating against his ribcage because his soulmate was in danger!!! he physically and literally cannot drown but that’s what it felt like

“i’m your soulmate?”

your breathless gasp explains it all

:O

oh so...

oh my god how could you have nOT known this all along???

HOW COULD YOU BE SO OBLIVIOUS

taehyung probably acted this way and most especially that way when he ignored you!!!

you vaguely remember yoongi telling you that pearls PROBABLY mean a lot to taehyung even if the tone he’s used on you is beyond certain

the pearl ring was meant for courting!!!

that explains why yoongi gasped and looked at you inrcredulously!!!!

no he’s been courting you ALL this time

you are so..... insuffeable

“i’m so sorry!!” 

you’ve crammed in twelve years of experience into two minutes of critical thinking, throwing your arms around taehyung and burying your face into his neck

he grunts a bit at that but he’s not complaining at all

“you mUST hate me,” you frown and the need to cry overpowers you, taehyung sensing it again which is why he immediately strokes your nape in comfort

“i could never.”

the waves come back and even if they’re present, the water was calming

you’re too entranced with tae and your realizations to even notice that the water felt so much better compared to when it was dead still

it’s when you hear a familiar set of giggles that you sNAP your head in anger

yOONGI????

yoongi’s much more near you now, floating and floating until you make the move to look down and see not a duvet cover, but rather a tangerine-colored tail by him

all you’ve been doing this day is squeaking

tae, although still a lil bit mad at yoongi because he’s endangered you, smiles at his informant who’s helped make him last through the week

“half-merman!! i’m sorry if i didn’t tell you sooner, y/n. but since tae’s full, that’s the reason he could only come on land once a month! and since i’m half, i could only come underwater once a month!!”

he grins at his explanation he’s been trying to piece together for the last couple of months

ok maybe years

it probably explained to why it’s no accident that he’s clicked with you instantly and he trusts you with his whole life!! you were truly a gentle human that’s an all-rounder

also explains to why yoongi wasn’t all THAT shocked when you brought him out one day on his first year of working and pleaded taehyung to rise up with only even his eyes blinking up at him

no wonder tae warmed up to yoongi quick even if he did say he had distrust with majority of humans!!

how could you not doubt for one second that it’s the reason why he’s always been really good at swimming too and holding his breath

yoongi chose his day of the month to be today because you were so down in the dumps, and aLSO for the reasoning that he missed the boys so that’s why he’s going down there in a heartbeat

taehyung pinches at your thigh, a bright grin on your face when you come face to face with him after waving yoongi goodbye

“are you gonna make me wait another twelve years more?”

he pecks your cheek and it doesn’t feel platonic anymore, a giddy smile in realization that you’ve finally come to your senses

“would you mind?”

://

the teasing lilt in your voice doesn’t seem to go anywhere anytime soon hee-hee

“maybe a little but-“

“no more waiting.”

you kiss taehyung and almost launch yourself at him, savoring the taste of him on your tongue that he has to grip your thighs around his waist a little tighter

yeah ur a little slow but ur spirits are high!! you’re on the right direction!!

you’re definitely worth waiting for

and panicking over

and courting

and loving

:)

[lilfellasblog]

I tried to choose a question but, I'm pretty interested in answers to all those tbh

You. I like you.

Talk about the first ship you ever had. - Tiencha (Tien Shinhan/ Yamcha), which is why I'm very sympathetic to those also suffering in rarepair hell.

Talk about three of the most important ships throughout your life. Destiel, Tiencha, Analogical

What’s your current OTP? Oof, I think I gotta go Prinxiety! So much potential for angst with hurt/comfort.

What’s your current NOTP? You know, I honestly can't think of any tbh.

Do you have any poly ships? For my OTP question, I originally answered LAMP/CALM, so definitely that!

How do you feel about love triangles? I think they can be intriguing if done well. If there's cheating involved, it would be pretty difficult for me to feel sympathy for the cheater.

How do you feel about RPF? It's fine, do whatever you want. Fanfic has always been for fans, not for creators. Purity culture and entitlement needs to stop. It's like seeing a sign that says "Snapping Turtles", jumping in the pond anyways, then yelling at the people who put up the sign after you lose a couple pounds of flesh.

Have you ever shipped yourself with a character? Tbh, the closest I've gotten is wanting different characters to adopt me and take me from my home. But I don't think I've ever romantically shipped myself with someone.

Do you have many ships that never got together at all? *cries in All Of Them*

Do you ship any characters that have never met? Huh. I don't think so tbh.

Talk about your favorite first kiss. Well in college there was- Oh! You mean fictional characters! :3 I think Virgil's first kiss with Roman in Healing Broken Wings is my favorite.

Have you ever been disappointed when your ship finally got together? *cries in It's Never Happened*

Has a ship ever broken your heart? In fanfic? Yeah, I've read some sad endings before and that's usually not my jam.

How do you feel about will they/won’t they? I'm fine with it so long as it ends in "Yes they will!"

Have you ever “shipped at first sight”? Analogical, actually!

Talk about a ship you initially disliked. I think when Remus first appeared, I had a hard time imagining him with anyone because of what a gremlin he is. I've come around to the trash rat tho.

Talk about a pairing you’ve stopped shipping romantically. Destiel.

Talk about a moment which made you question an entire ship. Season 6 of Supernatural. Destiel. >:(

Have you ever shipped something despite yourself? Kind of? I've done spite fics with spite ships.

Talk about a ship you feel alone in shipping. Tiencha, or Tien Shinhan/ Yamcha. They'd be so cute together!

Is there a ship you just don’t get, but have nothing against? Any ships that are part of fandoms I'm not in. I guess maybe Tony Stark/ Steve Rogers? They have such different values and ethics. They literally need a threat to the entire universe to come together.

Which of your ships have the best chemistry? Oh Analogical, easily. Royality too I think.

Which of your ships deserve better writing? Tiencha :(

Do you mostly ship canon pairings? Lmao no.

Have you ever shipped a pairing before you even started watching the show/movie simply because of gifs and graphics or similar? Yes I have! Crowley/ Aziraphale.

Have you noticed a pattern in your shipping? Is there a romantic dynamic you’re more drawn to? Not really, it's kind of all over the map.

Is there a ship you’ve shipped for most of your life? Tiencha.

Does shipping come easily to you? Yes, I am trash.

Do you need to ship something to really enjoy a movie/book/tv show/comic? Definitely not. I was a Potterhead, and I still don't really ship anything there.

Name a couple of fandoms in which you have no ships. Harry Potter, Marvel, DC Comics. I'm not in those fandoms tho.

Talk about one of your favorite headcanons for a ship you love. Roman is playfully protective of Virgil, and Virgil teases him by dramatically swooning.

Share five must-read fics. "Unexpected Destinies" was my first fic that I got into. Destiel fic, very complex and interesting AU. I think it got deleted during a LiveJournal purge tho. I got really into the "Battle Scars" series for a hot minute. Disabled Goku/ disabled Yamcha. "Perfect Attendance" by Periwren is great hurt/comfort starring Roman and Logan. "Welcome to the Neighborhood" by LeFay_Strent is absolutely hysterical. Shenanigans with Remy and Virgil, background Prinxiety, baffled Logan, it's a good time. And "War is Hell (but crushing is way more awkward)" by Jasper01 is incredible in so many ways! Funny, tragic, accurate, romantic, sweet, heartbreaking, all the things!

Name your favorite fanartist(s). So many fanartists have moved away from Sanders Sides, so I'm having a hard time thinking of many. To make sure I cover everyone, if there are any recs please let me know and I'll signal boost!

Share your favorite fanmix for your OTP. *Googles fanmix* It would appear I have none.

Recommend 1-5 shipper blogs. Gosh, so many of the shipping blogs I follow have become inactive in the Sides fandom. So! If any of you shipping blogs would like a shout-out, lmk and I'll signal boost!

Do you create fanmixes/gif sets/fanart/fic/fanvids and so on for you ships? Fic. So much fic.

Do you have a favorite trope and/or AU for your OTP? I mean I'm partial to Healing Broken Wings AU. As for trope, I'm a sucker for angst with hurt/comfort.

Do you like and use ship names? Definitely! Much faster to type.

Is there a fictional relationship you’d really want for yourself? I'm taking the word "fictional" literally here, because there is someone I'm in unrequited love with that I'm working on dealing with and I would really love a relationship with this person even though I know any hope is fiction.

If you could change one thing about your OTP, what would that be? Prinxiety, and that Roman would get some goshdang therapy!

Rating the girls out of 10 because I’m bored

Lottie - she acted pretty immaturely with the Rocco situation. I get her being upset but then she also kissed Gary behind Rocco’s back, so? She looks out for her girls quite a lot. I struggled with her on the Noah route because she, like everyone else, dismissed MC’s feelings quite a lot. Equally though, when she find out about MC kissing Noah on that route she doesn’t just turn her back on MC. She says fanny flutters. Her gem scenes with the tea leaves and such is worth it, in my opinion. If you tell her you want to share a bed with Kassam in Casa Amor (I did this on my Noah route so had no luck with him but just wanted to try it out), she actually didn’t mind. If you’re with Rocco when he’s cracking on with Marisol, she 100% has MC’s back too which is nice. 9/10, because depending on routes she can have her flaws.

Hope - so, on non-Noah routes (disclaimer: I mostly do these because I don’t want Lurik to choose me at disaster recoupling), I’m usually close friends with her. Even after my last route where MC kissed Noah, she was actually still nice to MC after Casa Amor. I don’t really like her possessiveness of Noah; I get her being mad about the Priya/MC kiss. But I’m talking about from day one where you can’t even flirt with him without her frowny faces. If you’re on a Noah route, she completely dismisses MC feelings about him in Casa? Which I kind of understand her not being on board with the coupling, but that doesn’t mean MC can’t have feelings. Tbh I think her and Noah aren’t compatible at all but that’s for another post. She’s quite bossy a lot of the time, but with good intention - like on girls day out, I think she was just trying to keep the peace and have a day without drama. Um, don’t agree that she’s Posh Spice. She stole that title. 4/10 - I can’t deal with her day one possessiveness of Noah.

Marisol - Marisol fans are going to hate me for this. I don’t like her character that much. It annoys me when she constantly analyses everyone - I get it because it’s where her passion lies but it’s just so much sometimes. Especially in Casa Amor, like I really don’t care about those boys and I don’t care who’s genuine and who isn’t - I’m leaving them where the fuck they are lmao. It was kinda snakey for her to go behind Lottie’s back with Rocco but she did say when she first came in she wasn’t going to let anyone stand in her way of having a chance of love. I just don’t believe that she’s the shortest girl?? Obviously they did that for her and Graham to have that kiss but she doesn’t look like she would be short. Her fingers creep me out. HOWEVER, if you kiss Noah, she won’t pass any judgement and seems to be impressed that MC made a pass at Noah. Once she comes back from Casa Amor with Graham, she sort of disappears? Like where was she when they were building a den. 7/10

Original Hannah - I liked her, her character was sweet which was refreshing. All she needs to do is pull her head out of Lottie’s ass. I think if she stayed, her and MC would have actually become closer than her and Lottie. 8/10

Returning Hannah - so like, whilst I’m here for glow ups I do feel like the message to Hannah (and maybe younger girls) was “change yourself to be liked”. Saying that, as the days go on, her old self starts to show a lot more. Like when she says “erotically charged” instead of horny. I would have preferred Priya to return. 5/10

Priya - QUEEN. She has to steal your man but that’s okay, you can easily get him back. Let’s say it’s Bobby, for example, if you speak to him on the night your single for grafting, when she comes over she quotes Mean Girls and isn’t annoyed at you for flirting - she understands that it’s the first few days and it’s how Love Island works (take notes, Hope, who gets jealous when Noah comes to keep MC company). I feel bad for the backlash she gets in ON, especially if it’s MC who ended up kissing Noah and not her. She’s pretty goofy and playful and I love that about her, because with the way they made her and her age you would expect something else. Negatives?? Um... Yeah, I can’t think of any? Maybe ON but that’s not just her. Then she wants MC to win, so easily 10/10.

Chelsea - I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE FOR HER. Best friend, bra sister, would couple up with her if I could. She becomes MC’s best friend the minute she comes into the Villa and I feel like she’s always there for her, no matter what. With characters like Lottie and Hope, sure they have you’re back - as long as you’re not flirting with their man, or in some cases if you dare speak to them alone. Chelsea is always interested in whoever MC is coupled up with after Casa Amor, but if MC really wants to be with that person she doesn’t stand in the way. She does recouple with someone different quite a lot but she came in late, when everyone was pretty much settled into their couples, so I think she just found it hard to find someone. I don’t like that I had the option to suck her toe in Casa Amor but not share a bed with her. Fuck those Casa Amor guys, I want to share a bed with Chelsea - heck, I’d even share a bed with her in a Villa when they’re not happy in their couples (her with Gary, MC with whoever she saved for example). She made up a secret handshake with MC and I love that??? I don’t blame her for the drama around the Jo kiss - sure, she shouldn’t have blurted it out to the girls but Elisa should have never told her in the first place and when it all came out, Jo should have admitted to it. So I don’t judge her on that. She assigns Spice Girls to her friends and will perform a Spice Girls song with MC if you choose that option. She’s one of the funniest characters in there and I want her to be real so she can be my best friend. Easily 10/10.

Shannon - so I hated Shannon at first. Anything Casa Amor related, I hated it. But after getting more into LITG and seeing stuff on here, I ended up loving her. I don’t like her “game plan” type of approach to getting Ibrahim that much but it worked for a while. My biggest problem with her character is her not confronting Ibrahim about the kiss because that argument just dragged on so much. Equally, he could have owned up to it so it’s not entirely on her. She wasn’t a bitch to the Villa girls when they came back from Casa Amor (looking at you, Blake). There have been occasions where she’s called MC a people pleaser (r u d e) but so has Jo, so I won’t judge her on that. 8/10, would have been higher but I can’t be fucked with the Ibrahim and Jo kiss drama.

Blake - don’t have anything nice to say about her. On the Noah route, she practically begged him to bring her into the villa by saying it would be the safest option and I think she did the same with Lurik. She saw the boys were a mess after seeing the video and took advantage of that. She fakes being nice - if you’re nice to her, she’s still a bitch in the finale. Don’t waste your gems being nice. When you first meet her she instantly insults MC? Yeah -4/10 and I can only use this gif to conclude how I feel about her

Elisa - honestly there’s not much for me to say about her. For some reason she’s MC friends and will miss MC the most? Didn’t even feel that close to her. The kiss drama was annoying as hell and she should have told Shannon. Then she came at my girl Chelsea? CANCELLED. I want to burn her clothes, more specifically her sleepwear. Yeah I don’t think there’s much to say because I feel like I don’t care about her that much anyway? 3/10

Jo - first things first, PUT THAT TONGUE AWAY OR GO AND TONGUE JAKUB. The drama she caused was so fucking unnecessary, just admit to the kiss. She’s usually the one that calls MC a people pleaser so I want to deck her for that. I don’t understand why Ibrahim asked her to be his girlfriend after like 3 days? How does that make sense? She’s fucking rude when it comes to the shopping trip “who died and make you two king and queen—“ no one yet, hun, but it can be arranged. Don’t feel sorry for her when she melts her dolls voice box. Oh and if you let her go shopping, she basically only brings back nachos and nothing else which is dumb. Sometimes I want to feel sorry for her because she gets off to a bad start but honestly she’s pretty rude. 1/10.

[buttered-ghost-toast]

Listen, if you don't fill out all of those numbers and tell me everything about your MC I'm going to feel robbed

Oh geez, fam! ...aight. That took me a minute. But below you will find out more about my girl, Niri! 

1.      What is their favourite food?—

Cheeseburgers and carrots. 

2.       Do they have a fear of an animal? If so, what animal? –

Not a fan of snakes, lizards, frogs, sharks.

3.       What do they wear to bed? –

Shorts and a t-shirt. Sometimes nothing at all!! That had to stop when she moved into the HoL though. Brothers poppin’ in at all hours gettin’ an eyeful. Lucifer was upset. 

4.       Do they like cuddling?—

1000000000%. Niri’s a big ol’ cuddle bug. Asmo’s all about it. So is Beel. 

5.       Do they have a secret handshake with anyone? -- With Astaroth. It’s quite elaborate and they only ever do it when they decide to get up to trouble.

 6.       What do they look like? – 

She cute if I may say so myselffff (don’t judge me, she’s a self insert hah!) Mid to slightly above average height for a human female, fairly toned. Brown eyes, mid-back length hair that’s brown at the root, fades to a teal and purple under layers. Sometimes her hair will fade to a light yellowy-green. She has the hookup for dye from Barbatos who likes to procure things for her from the human realm. She also has quite a few tattoos.

 7.       Do they like chocolate? –

Only dark. She’s allergic to additives in certain milk chocolates so she doesn’t eat it much. 

 8.      What are their good and bad traits?

Good: Helpful, kind, encouraging, quite a hard worker in any task given her.

Bad: Easily swept up into trouble by others, will prioritize naps over other stuff sometimes, awfully flirtatious which gets her in hot water with Lucifer because apparently lesser demons keep poppin’ by the house with gifts also HUMAN, DID YOU REALLY JUST SAY THAT TO LORD DIAVOLO?! Oopsssssss~ Also, you know how Luci’s always doing the “MAAAAMMMOOOONNNNN…”…yeah, that’s almost always followed by “NIIIIIRIIIIIIIIII….”

 9.      Do they have any artistic talent?

Yes. She’s a musician so there’s that…and she likes to paint.

10.  What is their favourite room to be in, in the house they live in?

She likes the music room since the boys tend to spend quite a bit of time in there together, but she’s usually found in the kitchen making loads of food and baked goods…also, that’s where you’re more likely to find Beel, and she reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally likes Beel.

11.  Do they believe in luck?

To an extent. She believes that luck exists, but she thinks relying on it is a bit naïve.

12.  Can they do magic?

Like pull a rabbit out of a hat type thing? Yes. She picked up a few little tricks here and there from a friend who loves show magic. Def not the real stuff though.

13.  Do they believe in dragons?

She didn’t until she went to the Devildom. Not that they just have dragons hangin’ out all willy-nilly, but she’s heard stories from the brothers and others about dragons.

 14.  What is a pet peeve of theirs?

Rudeness and liars who don’t give up even after they’ve been caught in the lie. Also people who demand things of others as if they’re property and not living beings with feelings …this isn’t about Belphegor at all. Nope. She doesn’t have issues with him still.

15.  What was the last thing they cried about?

She was able to talk to all her bandmates at once for her weekly call home. They all just really miss each other, ok? It sucks that she has to lie to them about where she is because she knows they’re worried about her, but it was just nice to hear their voices.

16.  What is their sexuality?

Pan.

17.  Do they have a best friend? If so, who, and what makes them their best friend?

We’ll narrow this down to the Devildom. Niri gets along with everyone and literally loves all the beings she’s met and knows she could count on them for most anything, but there’s definitely a more solid feeling to her connection with Beelzebub. They sort of just get to be vulnerable and entirely open with one another and there is never judgement or ill will, even when Beel eats her secret snack stash…again.

 She’s kind of getting to that point with Astaroth as well, but she can sense he’s still a little guarded in certain aspects, and she’s not going to push.

18.  Have they ever been in a romantic relationship?

Yes, quite a few. It’s not her favorite thing to talk about since she’s been quite unlucky in that aspect, but hey, the past is the past.

19.  What does their relationship with their family look like? Are they close? Distant? Ect.

Her actual family family (with the exception of her brother) are not close in the least. They’re sort of barely on speaking terms. Her chosen family (comprised of her band and some of the closest staff) is extremely close.

20.  Do they have a pet?

No. She loves animals and had a dog up until recently, but they passed. It’s okay though, they had a good long life and it wasn’t painful for them when it happened.

21.  Do they have a familiar?

Nope. Non-magical.

22.  Are they a supernatural being?

Nope! “Boring” human, but she does seem to always find herself in weird situations that are sorta paranormal.

23.  How do they usually wear their hair?

It really just depends on the day. If she had time to work on it, it’s down and straight. If it’s a rush in the morning (read: fight for the bathroom because Beel won’t MOVE) she’ll toss it in a bun or ponytail depending on how hot it is outside. There are the odd days when she’ll just let it vibe in its natural wavy/curly state, but she kind of got fed up with the brothers calling her a sheep because it’s so fluffy.

24.  Can they play an instrument? If so, what instrument and what can they play?

Yes! She learned guitar and bass at a young age and was tinkering with drums before she was whisked away to the Devildom.

25.  What type a high schooler are/were they?

She was the quiet weird kid that didn’t quite fit in with the weird weird crowd, but also wasn’t popular. Plenty of people knew her or of her, but she mainly stuck with her group of friends and was nice to everyone.

26.  Have they ever been in a physical fight before? If so, with who? Who won?

Yes. Just small bits of violence. No one of import, tbh. But there was that one time they all went out to party at the fall and Mammon and Levi started teasing her and in her drunken state, Niri went to punch Mammon who managed to duck so she hit Levi square in the nose. He was fiiiiiiine.

27.  What is their favourite holiday?

Halloween because it’s fun, Christmas because of the togetherness, and EASTER BECAUSE MARSHMALLOW PEEPS!

 28.  If they could have one wish, what would they wish for?

A pass to go from the Devildom to the Human realm and back whenever she wants forever.

 29.  Do they wants kids? If they already have kids, do they want more?

No. Never.

 30.  Do they have a job?

Yes? Being a singer in a band is a job, right? It doesn’t always feel like a job because it’s awesome, but it’s a job.

 31.  Do they know how to drive?

Yes. She has convinced Mammon to let her drive his car on a few occasions and every time they get back he swears NEVER AGAIN. She a little speed demon.

 32.  Do they get stressed out easily?

Funny story, actually…YES. But she is pretty good at not letting it show. So on the outside she’s like la-la-la~ but inside it’s all AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~~

 33.  Did they ever dye their hair before? If so, to what colour? Did they like it?

Absolutely lol. Niri has gone through a few colors in her life, but her favorite is and always will be the teal. (Fun fact: the purple came from a happy accident a few years back when she dyed over a pink shade and a layer turned out purple. She liked it so now she does it that way on purpose.)

 34.  Have they ever broken the law?

Never anything egregious, but she’s gotten tickets for stuff in the human world. Disturbing the peace, speeding, she was fined once (along with her bandmates) for a surprise free show they did in front of a train station which got a lot more attention than they were expecting and wound up shutting down a couple city blocks. Oooooooooopsss~

 35.  Do they own a plant?

She’s really bad with plants. REALLY bad. She was gifted a plant by Simeon a couple weeks into the exchange program and it took an embarrassingly long time for her to notice it was a fake plant…since he knows she sucks at keeping things alive.

 36.  Have they ever rode a horse before?

Once, and it was a terrifying experience so she just keeps her distance now.

 37.  What is their favorite gif?

anything featuring Titus Andromedon.

 38.  Do they get along with others easily?

 She tries to. It’s not always possible, but she tries, dammit!

 39.  Do they have any tattoos?

Several, yes. One arm sleeve done, starting the other arm, both thighs have massive pieces on them and both ribs done as well. There are also a few small things on her fingers and back.

 40.  If I wanted to draw them, what would be distinct physical features that I would have to know to draw them correctly?

Lotta hair. Looooooottttta hair. And heavily winged eyeliner. Big lashes.

 41.  What is their favourite breed of dog?

Huskies. They’re just so cute and sassy! And perfectly sized!! Great cuddle buddies and fun to run with!

 42.  Do they live with anyone? If so, who?

Not in the human world, but she’s got 7 kinda irritating roomies in the Devildom!

 43.  Where is their dream vacation?

She’s traveled extensively, so there isn’t anywhere she dreams of going that she hasn’t already seen. Her favorite place is anywhere mountainous and lush.

 44.  Do they know more than one language?

Yep. Niri’s a language nerd. Because she likes to speak to fans and stuff, she has set it on herself to learn as many languages as she can. She’s not perfectly fluent in all of them, but it’s a good handful that she can hold a full conversation in. She and Satan like to practice with one another around the house, despite complaints from the others.

 45.  Are they a quick learner?

Depends. Most things, yes…..math and processes requiring math, NO.

 46.  Have they ever won a contest before? If so, what for? What did they win?

No, she’s not really the luck having type.

 47.  If the world were to end in 24 hours, where would they be and who would they be with?

Probably hugging Beel. They hug often. They’re kinda always together. It’s gross according to Leviathan and Belphegor.

 48.  What does their room look like?

She didn’t change much in the room she was given at the HoL. Just added her fake plant from Simeon and a few human things…she actually got the “Hang in There” kitty poster just for kicks. Lucifer hates it.

 49.  If they could have an extinct animal for a pet, what would they have?

A dodo bird. Because they’re weird and cool.

 50.  If they got called out by someone, what would they do?

Laugh and argue probably. Depends what they’re calling her out on.

51.  Have they ever shot a gun before?

Yep. Actually enjoys shooting, it’s a fun stress reliever. She makes a point to drop by shooting ranges every once in a while back home.

 52.  Have they ever been axe throwing?

Once at a renaissance festival on an odd week of downtime. She didn’t do so well. The throwing was fine, but she never hit the target. Just be glad she didn’t hit a person either!

 53.  What is something that they want but can’t have?

At the moment, all the people she loves in one place.

 54.  Do they know how to fish?

Nope! She’s a mess with that kind of thing. Also, she doesn’t like the idea of fishing for anything herself. It makes her cry to think of the fish on the hook :<.

 55.  What is something they always wanted to do but too scared?

Hmm…Niri tries to live her life in a way that she won’t have regrets, so even if something is scary, she’ll pluck up the courage to do it. But…she still hasn’t jumped out of a plane.

 56.  Do they own their own baby pictures?

Absolutely not. She cringes thinking of the outfits her parents used to put her in, so she did her best to keep those kinds of things buried and acts like they never existed. Nope. Was never a baby. Nope.

 57.  What makes them standout among others?

Niri is a pro at pretending she’s confident, so she tends to draw attention when she walks in a room like she owns the place. Also her hair is kinda bright.

 58.  Do they like to show off?

Not really. She’s flamboyant in a sense, but she doesn’t go out of her way to call attention or to be center stage…heh.

 59.  What is their favourite song?

She can never pick, honestly. There are so many songs that are so amazing!

 60.  What would be their dream vehicle?

That’s a very good question. Probably something sitting in her garage back home. Probably being driven by one of her bandmates. Because hey, what are friends for?

 61.  What is their favourite book?

Not that she isn’t a big reader, but she doesn’t really get the time to enjoy books. There’s always something that needs attention or someplace to be and she’s required to engage, so focusing on a book or story is hard, but she’s a fan of classic novels, poetry, and Greek tragedies are always good!

 62.  Who, in their opinion, makes the best food?

She likes everything Barbatos makes and thinks Luke’s desserts are fantastic, but there’s something about a human recipe that just warms her heart, so…..herself. Lol.

 63.  Are they approachable?

Absolutely! If you can get past her intimidating resting face.

 64.  Did they ever change their appearance?

Not drastically, but she has gone through a few different phases until settling on a good one.

65.  What makes them smile?

The silliness of those around her. Thinking of good memories with family/friends. Puppies.

 66.  Do they like glowsticks?

Yes. She has a stockpile of glowsticks that the brothers keep adding to.

 67.  What is something that is simple, but always makes them smile?

Watching the brothers bicker, even if it’s getting out of hand. It reminds her of her friends and how they always pick on one another.

 68.  Are they a day or night person?

Night, usually. Not that she dislikes the daytime, but day usually has so much stuff to be done whereas night is the fun stuff that doesn’t need a schedule.

 69.  Are they allergic to anything?

Some milk chocolate, bell peppers, and certain devildom plants.

 70.  What do you, the creator of this OC, like most about them?

She’s a spunky little thing who loves to have fun and make others smile above all else.

 71.  Who is their ride or die?

In the Devildom, Beelzebub and Astaroth.

Beel for most things, and Asta for the stuff Beel won’t do.

 72.  Do they currently have a significant other? If not, are they going to get one later one?

Erm…eh…look, it’s never been officially labeled or anything, ok? Like yeah they’re kind always together and have pet names for each other and like always touch and cuddle and like snuggle up in bed together and stuffffffffffff but like, idk? Is Beel her dude? Like….do we wanna even get into that?????? I mean, maybe someday? Like…what? What was the question??

 73.  What attracts them to another person?

A genuine heart, a killer smile, and a rockin’ bod. Yeah okay look everyone can be a little shallow sometimes okay get off her case >__<.  

 74.  Who is one person that can always make them laugh?

She’s a damn fool and will laugh at ANYTHING, so it’s not hard. Everyone makes her laugh. The girl will 9 times out of 10 laugh at herself for the dumbest moments.

 75.  Have they ever partied too hard and their friends had to take them home?

Oh yes many times. Many many times.  One of the first few times she hung out (went on a date) one-on-one with Beel they had a drinking contest and as it turns out, he can really hold his devil liquor.

 76.  Who would be their cuddle buddy?

She’ll cuddle up to Beel 99.9% of the time because he’s big and warm and always happy to hold, but she also really enjoys cuddling with Asmodeus. He’s such a sweetie and he smells so nice and they just snuggle and talk and laugh and it’s a nice escape. (Loads of times there are Asmo x Niri x Asta sandwiches in Asmo’s room.)

 77.  Who would cheer them up after a long day?

She tends to go to one of the brothers depending on what kind of day it’s been. Most of the time it’s gonna be Beel because again, big/warm/happy to hold her, but there are occasions where she’ll drag Beel to one of the others’ rooms and they’ll just hang out.

 78.  If they had a nightmare, who would they run to?

I mean…Beel. Lol. He’s right there.

 79.  What object to the care for the most?

She has a picture of her friends from back home that sits on her desk. She treasures that above all while she’s down in the Devildom.

 80.  Do they like other people’s children?

Sure. Kids are fine as long as they go back to their parents after a bit.

 81.  How would they react if someone broke into their home?

Seeing as there’s always someone coming into her room regardless if she’s there or not, she probably would just shrug it off. If someone decided to have a bad lapse in judgement and break into the HoL? She wouldn’t have to lift a finger.

 82.  Does anyone make them have butterflies in their stomach?

I mean….Beel. Lol. He so big and cute! Also Diavolo because he also big and cute.

 83.  What is something that they are good at?

Crying to get out of trouble. She’s a little shit. Lol.

 84.  What is their neutral expression?

Niri kinda always looks pissed off or uninterested?  Until she smiles and you realize oh, she’s just a big ol’ faker.

 85.  Do they like to cook?

Yes. It’s one of her very favorite things to do!

 86.  What is something they can’t leave home without?

Her phone! (and Beel) but like, there’s just so much a phone can do!

 87.  Who is someone that they rely on?

Have I mentioned ever that Simeon is (or was at one time) Niri’s guardian angel? He seems to always be there and ready to help in any way, so she’s pretty reliant on him and hopes he feels the same toward her. (He does. Cue uwu’s)

 88.  Do they liked to be tickled?

Absolutely not. She’s extremely ticklish and hates being tickled. She flails and cries.

 89.  Have they ever been a sword fight before?

No. No she has not lol. Unless empty wrapping paper tubes count? She’s done that.  

 90.  What is a joke that they would find funny?

All the bad ones. All of them. Ugly laugh here we go!

 91.  Do they have a place that can go and turn off their brain?

The gardens at RAD. It’s peaceful and there’s a great  view of the sky.

 92.  What was their childhood like?

Not bad, but not memorable. There was a lot of pressure put on her to be a perfect kid, and she didn’t get to have a whole ton of fun.

 93.  What are they like as an adult?

Responsible, but definitely fun-loving. Like I mentioned before, she likes to live in a way that she won’t ever regret not having done something she wanted to do, or regret any actions she took, so she’s always got an open mind and welcomes new experiences. She’s a big ol’ kid.

 94.  Do they take criticism well?

Yes. She welcomes criticism in any form as she is always looking to be the best person she can be.

 95.  Have they ever jumped out of a plane?

No. Not yet!

 96.  Who do they like to make jokes with?

Literally anyone. A total joker. Big big clown.

 97.  Have you ever drawn them before? If you are comfortable with it, would you post a picture?

Yes! I draw Niri every once in a while. I actually need to draw her again soon! I miss that girl.

This went over the 1.2k mark again, so read me ramble about Motel California,  why I hate Scallison, and the subsequent diminishing impact of Allison‘s death under the read more.

I haven’t actually watched Motel California in a while, but— 

The sad thing about Scott creeping on Allison is that it’s completely in character, and that’s what makes it terrifying. The twins’ whole thing is their ability to merge, and not having their ‘own’ identity until later. Isaac is literally a werewolf because of his abuse. Boyd’s sister is gone, and accepting the bite meant family that couldn’t get taken away that easily. except it’s BH and then they all either died or fucked off to France anyway.

Point is, their lowest points are all very closely linked to being a werewolf (do we know if the twins were born or bitten?), or the reason they became a werewolf. 

Scott doesn’t have this. Scott wasn’t born with it, or chose the bite to get out of a shitty situation. It was forced on him, and his werewolf related lowest point will always be about what he was ‘forced to’ give up because of it. Even if you can’t convince me that human!Scott/hunter!Allison would ever work out. 

For Scott, being a werewolf is the only reason he didn’t end up with Allison. Which is true, because human!Scott couldn’t lie to her about how her family could realistically kill her if they found out about their relationship, or about what’s really trying to kill them, or about her mom trying to kill him, or— your get my point.

The wolfsbane enhances the worst part of you (be that trauma, or identity issues, or stalking someone to show how much he loves her), and that part will always be Allison. 

And a big part of season 1 was learning control to be with Allison, which doesn’t really matter, but I needed the control in here somewhere.

If he had been still human, they could have been annoyingly adorable together. This is, for Scott, all the werewolf’s fault.  So, being poisoned, and having ‘no control’ over his actions would be the perfect time to, and I cannot stress enough how much I want to strangle this kid sometimes, get Allison to take him back.

The worst part of their relationship for me is that they had so much potential. If it weren’t for fucking Scott. We could have had a strong relationship that defied all the hunter/werewolf drama. We even could have had a sweet first love that ended because Allison trusted the wrong people, and Scott wouldn’t stop lying to her. 

It’s why I like Allisaac a lot more than them. There’s baggage and blood on both sides, but they both know who the other is, has seen— has been on the receiving end of— their worst, and they’re still choosing to be together. 

Meanwhile Scott is somewhere in the background getting a good job on not stalking someone on the other side of the earth tattoo. Which, seriously, what?

But hey, at least Scott told Kira everything after only the first time she nearly got killed, so [insert gif of Stiles saying “progress”]

But instead the show kept pushing for them to be, if not endgame, the epitome of True Love. And I get that Scott is the main character, that he is supposed to be the Good Guy and Get The Girl or whatever. But the thing is, he’s not. He lies and manipulates people for their own good/to keep them safe. He uses people to get whatever outcome he wants. But he still becomes the True Alpha™, who never killed anyone, who has a strong moral compass, or whatever that whole speech was about. 

And this may just be me having read too many anti fic metas, but this is a show specifically made for teens, and the fact that the main character gets to do whatever he wants— including stalking, harassing, getting physical with someone he technically has power over because he like the girl who broke up with him, literally using someone’s body without their consent, etc— without any form of consequences other than maybe breaking up with Allison for a few episodes is Bad. Like, give me all the morally grey, manipulative main characters, but especially with shows aimed at younger people you need to be aware that they will see this shit being normalized/trivialized and will use it as a ‘norm’. 

And sure, shows like supernatural/the punisher do this, too. But, despite the Winchesters/Frank being the main characters and helping people, the show never lets you think what they’re doing is ‘good’.

Now, the dumpster fire that is the ‘I’m in the arms of my first love’ scene—

The short version is, I despise it and everything it stands for with a passion that’s only rivalled by my hatred for Kate and Theo.

The long version is, I already said why I hate Scott, especially anywhere near Allison. The show continuously pushes them together, reduces everything about Allison, her sacrifice, her skills, literally every other relationship she has, to being Scott’s First Love. 

She saved Isaac, the boy is literally 5 feet away from her, but we don’t get more than a close up of his face for 3 seconds, followed by 2 fucking minutes of Scott acting like he’s the only one who’s losing her. 

And from a writer’s perspective, it makes sense. Scott is the main character, Isaac and Kira are just the new love interest of the season, Lydia and Stiles couldn’t be in the fight (also Stydia™), I don’t remember why Chris showed up late, and even then, we already got’ their goodbye.

But the thing is, Allison isn’t Scott’s girlfriend. They’ve been broken up for the better part of the season. And it just continues to boil down to the fact that Scott doesn’t know how to handle not having a claim on her. They may still love each other, but that doesn’t mean everyone else doesn’t matter.

Isaac and Allison were (going to be? I don’t remember) dating, she literally just saved his life by sacrificing her own. 

Lydia was her best friend, she knew Allison was going to die. And from a writer’s perspective having her scream alone with the boy whose face just killed Allison is heartbreaking, but you can’t tell me that having Lydia scream for her as she watches her die, having Allison tell her that she’s her best friend, reassuring her that this isn’t her fault would be any less dramatic.

Stiles doesn’t even get to care. He’s unconscious, and after everything they’ve been through together, the show acts like they were never friends, like Stiles doesn’t deserve to mourn her.

Chris is what makes me the most angry. He just lost the last person he loved, after everything he lost his fucking daughter, and he gets to the scene too late and stares at her until the camera goes back to show us how much Scott is hurting.

And then he has to coach these kids through lying about her murder and he doesn’t get to break, doesn’t get to show how much it hurts until that scene with Isaac. 

Like, sure, Allison got to say goodbye to him, but Chris didn’t, and I fucking hate the show for it.

Series Masterlist

“Thank you, New York! Good night!” You cheered into the microphone, taking one last bow and giving a wave to the crowd before exiting the stage.

You immediately went to your dressing room and packed up your guitar, then grabbing a water bottle from the mini fridge in the corner. Performing shows was one of your favorite things to do, and you would never grow tired of it. Seeing all the fans who came to see you, and hear them sing along to your songs never got old. 

You sat down on the couch and took a sip from the water bottle. There was enough time for you to relax and come down from your adrenaline high before having to get on your tour bus and move on to the next place. 

Setting the water bottle next to you, you wiped the sweat that beaded on your forehead and grabbed your phone from where you had tossed it on the couch before going on stage. You opened Twitter, starting a new tweet.

 “Had so much fun tonight. New York, I love you x”

You posted the tweet, then started scrolling through your feed. There was nothing out of the ordinary; just tweets from friends, family, fans. You liked a few tweets here and there, but mostly just scrolled through without giving much thought to any of them. Just one particular tweet caught your eye. It was a recommended tweet, from a user you didn’t follow.

“Absolutely love this song. Great job @/your/twitter/user/”

Attached was a screenshot of Spotify playing a song from your newest album that was released not too long ago. 

You grinned to yourself, seeing it was one of your more “underrated” songs that people seemed to not pay much attention to, at least compared to your more popular singles. Glancing at the person who tweeted it, you immediately recognized the name. Calum Hood; he was a bassist in a band. You knew quite a few of their songs, one of your favorites being their latest release, Youngblood. It was undeniably a beautifully written song. You couldn’t exactly call yourself a major 5 Seconds of Summer fan, but you did enjoy listening to them. 

You liked the tweet, then responded with a simple “Thank you! ;)”

You clicked on his name and followed him, noticing he was already following you. He seemed like a nice guy; unfortunately, you had never gotten the chance to meet him. Maybe one day. 

Then, a thought popped into your head. You recalled seeing 5 Seconds of Summer on the setlist for the B96 Summer Bash in Chicago, which you were also set to be performing at. It would be a perfect opportunity to meet him and see him live with his band. You smiled to yourself, standing up and grabbing all your things that you took into the dressing room. You walked out to the back door of the venue, where a security guard waited to walk you to your tour bus. You beamed and waved to the huddle of fans that were crowded behind a barrier, but scurried right to the bus. 

After you changed into some sweats and a t-shirt, you crawled into your bunk and continued to scroll through your phone. A few tweets from fans popped up, theorizing about something going on between you and Calum, just because he had tweeted you one time. You laughed softly to yourself, simply scrolling by. They could think whatever they wanted; truth was, you had never even met him in person. 

…

The day of the Summer Bash came around, and frankly, the idea of finding Calum to meet him had pretty much slipped your mind completely. You still had a tour going on, and you needed to focus more on that and promoting your new album. 

You stepped out of the van that drove you from your hotel to the venue, taking a deep breath as the warm air hit you. Thankfully, Chicago was mostly warm this time of year. A part of you wanted to stay outside and just enjoy the nice weather for a while, but you needed to get inside to get ready and rehearse a bit. 

After going through the mess of checking in with the crew and being told a very specific schedule to follow, you were finally shown to your dressing room to get ready and practice. Your stylists followed you inside, ready to doll you up for your performance. 

Once you were dressed, warmed up your voice and tuned your guitar, you still had a while before showtime. There was no point in sitting around in your dressing room the whole time when there must have been something to do around. 

You grabbed your phone and walked out, starting to aimlessly wander around the backstage area. You ran into a few people that you had met before, exchanging hugs and good luck wishes for the show. 

Eventually, you got so invested into replying to a text from your best friend that you totally stopped paying attention to where you were going. It wasn’t until you walked directly into something, or someone, that you were brought back to the real world. 

You began uttering out a rushed apology and looked up to see what poor soul you ran into, and you immediately recognized the face. It was the guy who tweeted you when you were in New York; Calum was his name. 

He clearly recognized you, too, because his eyes nearly popped out of his head.

“I am so sorry, I wasn’t paying atten-”

“It’s okay, really,” he interrupted your rambling, running his hand through his hair. He tried to act casual, but in reality, his heart was beating a mile a minute. He had been a fan of your music since you first started, and he always wished to meet you. That was finally happening, and the fact that you were ten times more beautiful in person was not helping. Not that he didn’t always think you were beautiful; it was just a whole different experience. 

“You’re Calum, yeah?” You asked, looking up at him with a grin. He nodded in response, smiling. 

“That’s me. And you’re Y/N...I really love your music,” he admitted, eyes falling to the floor in a sheepish manner. He usually never had a problem talking to people, but for some reason, you were making him flustered like never before. 

You blushed, fiddling with your phone in your hands.

“Thanks,” you mumbled. “I’m a fan of you guys, too. I’ve had Youngblood on repeat for a while.”

He chuckled, bringing his brown eyes back up to meet yours. You could get lost in his eyes. The beautiful chocolate brown was enough to make you melt. 

“I’m glad you like it.”

You bit your lip and looked around the hallway, not sure of what else to say. This was one of your least favorite things; awkward silences. Especially with Calum Hood, of all people. 

“So, this is going to sound really weird, but I’ve been wanting to meet you for a while now. I’m just such a fan, you’re music is sensational,” he rambled, tan cheeks turning a light shade of pink. “I’m sorry I sound like a creep, I’m just really glad this is happening.”

You laughed softly at his embarrassment, shaking your head. 

“You don’t sound like a creep. I’m really glad to meet you as well. You’re really sweet,” you said, the compliment rolling off your tongue easily. You the continued, “Would you like to hang out sometime, Calum? We could find a time when we’re both not busy, and go out if you want.”

He smiled, nodding his head in agreement. 

“I’d love to.”

The two of you exchanged numbers, and proceeded to say your goodbyes; the show would be starting soon, and you both needed to get back to your dressing rooms. 

“See you later, Y/N.”

“Bye, Cal.”

Cal. Oh God, you called him Cal. 

It was just a simple nickname, but your mind still raced. What if only his close friends called him that? You weren’t exactly close, you had just met. It probably wasn’t really a big deal, but you couldn’t help but overthink. 

Upon returning, you touched up your hair and straightened out your outfit. You were going on first, and 5 Seconds of Summer was scheduled to perform right after you. You knew you needed to focus on your performance, so you pushed your panic about the nickname completely out of your mind. It’s just a nickname, after all. 

A crew member knocked on your door, signaling it was showtime. You checked your appearance one last time before heading out the door. You found your guitar backstage and shook out your nerves. 

“Y/N!”

You turned around at the sound of your name, and smiled when you saw Calum walking up to you. 

“Hey,” you said, adjusting the strap on your shoulder. 

“Just wanted to wish you luck,” he said, stuffing his hands in the pockets of his pants. 

You grinned and opened your mouth to reply, but the sound of another voice yelling cut you off. 

“He has a crush on you!”

A laugh escaped your lips as Calum whipped around and raised a certain finger at whoever yelled; glancing past him, you found the source to be one of his bandmates, Luke, you believed. 

“He’s kind of a dumbass,” he sighed, turning back around to face you. 

You shrugged. “Don’t worry about it.”

Although trying to appear casual, your cheeks undeniably red. A crush? It seemed unlikely, he had only just met you, and Luke could easily just be trying to embarrass him. But, still...you wouldn’t mind it if he did have a crush on you. 

Before he could say anything else, a crew member tapped you on the shoulder and jabbed his thumb towards the stage. Showtime.

“I’ll see you later,” you said with a smile. He returned it, and you ran onto the stage. The sounds of excited screams filled your ears, and you beamed brightly at the crowd. 

“What’s up, Chicago!” You yelled into the microphone, earning a chorus of screams in response. It was a great audience, you could tell. 

You started strumming your guitar, and your band started to play as well; one of the singles from your new album. 

A smile found its way onto your face as the crowd sang along; that was a feeling nothing could ever beat.

After a few songs, you took your bows and walked off the stage, still buzzing on adrenaline. Calum, Ashton, Luke and Michael were standing backstage, waiting for their turn to perform.

“You did awesome,” Ashton commented, giving you a thumbs up. Michael uttered an agreement, then directing his gaze to Calum. Luke nudged the boy’s shoulder.

“Y-yeah, you were amazing,” he stuttered, grinning. You smiled, patting his shoulder. God, he was adorable when he got flustered. 

“Thanks, guys. Good luck!” You waved to them as they made their way on stage, and you handed your guitar off to a crew member. You opted to stay backstage to watch their performance, and you couldn’t help but grin. 

They all clearly loved music and performing, and it warmed your heart to see their passion. Calum in particular looked so into it, bouncing around the stage and playing his bass with such a fire in his eyes. He was beyond talented, too. 

At one point, he turned to look backstage. He saw you standing there, and quickly shot you a smile. You returned it with a thumbs up, showing you were enjoying the performance. He looked down for a moment, still smiling widely, before heading towards his microphone to sing during Want You Back.

“Would you mind going back to your dressing room, ma’am? We have to clear the area for the incoming stage setup.”

The sound of a voice snapped you out of your attention to the song, and you nodded your head. 

“Yeah, of course.”

You took one last look at the band before scurrying away. Once back in your dressing room, you grabbed your phone and opened a new message to Calum. 

“They kicked me out of the backstage area :( but you guys did awesome!!”

You sighed happily, reclining into the chair at the vanity. You were happy to have met the Aussie boy, even if it was briefly. A part of you thought maybe, just maybe, the fan’s theories on Twitter could become true one day. 

[filisaceaf]

oof ok i have a lot so you can choose (phan aus for the headcanons ask): detective au (one or both of them), au where dan is still a fan/never met phil in 2009, supernatural au (one of them is not human), x-men-type mutants au, hogwarts au (i had to :p)

You wanted only one AU you said? I’m sorry, Phan is my hyperfocus of the month so it looks like you win the headcannons of 3/5 the AUs and you know what? I’m not even sorry my homie.

This is long so I threw it under a cut.

Detective AU

1. Okay so, one would think Dan is the detective with his charming good looks who could get him into locations easily and charm people but Phil is actually a great detective because even though he’s tall, he just lives his life wanting to help people find something lost or someone missing or make sure people are not being unfairly treated. Dan is more his handler, part secretary (look someone needs to make sense of Phil’s notes, file them in a way that makes sense and is easily accessible to other people, and make sure Phil doesn’t overwork himself into a migraine like he has the past three weeks) and part paralegal at Phil’s little detective agency. He is very protective of his boss.

2. Phil loves being a detective. He doesn’t like to “spill tea” on clients like some people like to think he does, but he likes helping 80 year old women who were robbed get their wedding rings back or help someone find their missing child (he wishes those cases turned out a lot better than they usually do, but at the very least he helps people begin to grieve). He likes helping find justice and is actually pretty particular about what cases he’ll take. He hates doing cases about people thinking their spouses are cheating and really he does those if he’s desperate to make sure that he can pay Dan and his bills.

3. You can pry this one from my cold dead hands but Phil definitely has a corgi named Watson that he likes to dress up in plaid. Watson comes to the office with Phil because of long hours and has a little bed under Phil’s obnoxiously large desk that he bought specifically so he could have a bed for Watson there. Phil likes to pretend he’s hurt by Watson also curling up under Dan’s desk (but really he just goes soft for Dan’s voice going high pitched and “hello Watson”).

4. Dan is not a lawyer in the AU, but he did complete a paralegal program! As a paralegal, Dan can do legal research for anyone, but usually he does it for any jobs Phil did that end up needing to go to court. He can also draft legal documents and is also a notary; he just can’t legally represent anyone in court. Dan likes to joke that he is a slacker to the fact that “I’m a lawyer, but the bare minimum of one”. They met at college when Phil was in his last year of majoring in criminal justice and media studies and Dan was still on the track to wanting to be a lawyer. He took a gap (period) of years, had an existential crisis, became better friends with Phil during that time. Phil originally started his detective agency with another partner and when they left, Dan took over the secretarial side of things. It took him a few years, but he eventually went back to school to finish his paralegal certificate and Phil cheered the loudest at his graduation ceremony.

5. I don’t know how these two get together in the AU, but just know it is a slow burn. Like literal years and months and eons of mutual pining with them taking Watson on walks and late nights at the office and shared coffee runs and Dan always being scared Phil is going to do something super dangerous for his health like climb in a vent or park to close to a gangster’s house and get shot. After they get together, they do agree that Dan should get a another job because working together and living together with Phil’s unpredictable schedule was causing some fights for a long period of time (because they didn’t live together before this point). Dan does still stop by pretty often and double check the secretaries work and curl up in the corner of the sofa of Phil’s office (“Dan’s sofa crease” Phil affectionately calls it) and work on stuff for his other job at a nonprofit for mental health awareness.

Dan is a Fanboy and Literally the Biggest Philly AU (The barely alternate timeline tbh)

1. So, this is literally always my favorite kind of AU and I have a lot of soft feelings about these boys always managing to find each other somehow. But yes, Dan got discouraged after the like 100th time of subtweeting Phil and commenting on his videos and not getting a response, he never reached out to Phil for editing tips. Instead!!! He reaches out to a few other YouTubers years later when he’s going through his existential crisis and he’s like “you know, the last time i was happy was when I on YouTube all the time”. So he takes a gap year in university to try and see if it’s something he likes doing. He was not expecting for his channel to be well received. It takes him ages to figure out the jumpcut thing.

2. Because he never got to know Phil as young as he did, when they first meet at Summer In the City, Dan is actively trying not to lose his shit. Because holy fuck. This is Amazing Phil. This is the guy who he would play in the background while he studied and would donate so much on live streams and upvote and fuck he’s wearing some OG Phil merch with Lion on it. He walks around all day with his jacket zipped up because Phil can’t know he’s a fan; Phil is so smart and creative and funny and god. He’s completely turned upside down when Phil sees him and approaches him because “you’re danny’s snot on fire, right?”

Dan never regretted a username more in HIS LIFE and this exact moment lead to his rebranding months later

3. But they exchanged contact information and eventually did a collab video: Phil is Not on Fire. And they whole time, Dan is trying not to breathe too deep or do anything annoying because he’s in Phil’s bedroom??? His filming area??? His pants are on the floor like two feet away??? And when the tackle happens, Dan hopes he didn’t get a concussion and hallucinated the whole thing because Phil is warm and grinning at him with his tongue sticking out and holy shit, this is better than any video, gif, screen redraw, anything. Seeing it up close??? 

4. Phil doesn’t even notice Dan’s a fan until him and Jimmy do a ‘What’s in my tumblr tag?’ and Dan’s blog comes up with some Phil gif reblogs from back in the day and Phil just messages Dan screenshots. Dan is mortified. He’s going to delete his tumblr. He’s not Tyler (not that Tyler is bad, they’ve messaged a few times, but Dan’s not a /fanboy/ ((lmao he is))). Phil just giggles on the video and says that Dan is such a nice guy. Kind of. Definitely cheats at Mario Kart. Dan is literally going to die, this is the second best day of his life

5.They get together when they are both traveling for Playlist Live and they hook up at a party one of the nights there. Dan would be mortified if he didn’t wake up and Phil was still there. He didn’t take off in the middle of the night; he’s wrapped around Phil and Phil is mumbling under his breath about how Dan needs to stop moving and just sleep. Their coming out video is on Dan’s Channel and is Titled “I’m still #1 phil trash” which is a throw back to a privated video called “#1 phil trash” where it’s Dan talking about how talented and funny and inspirational Phil Lester is for six minutes because someone had asked him on Formspring who one of his idols was .

Hogwarts AU

1. Phil is from a magical household and his brother is a squib with a banging music career. Maybe it’s latent magic? Either way, Martyn is a sick af dj and Phil loves it when it’s time for summer vacation because he can visit Martyn in London and see some shows (he can’t go every night) or just wander around during the day with Martyn’s girlfriend Cornelia, who graduated from Durmstrang Institute, while Martyn sleeps off a late night show. Martyn being a Squib leads him to take Muggle Studies though because he wants to be able to connect with the world Martyn lives in and someday, at the rate technology is expanding, he is going to have to leave the isolating wizarding world. 

2. Dan is from a muggle family and it shows in the tenacious way he fights to be accepted by his fellow Slytherins. Every O on an assignment he gets is validation, because see I belong here, I’m one of you, I may not have families who can trace their magic past Bloody Mary or past the plague, but I am still one of Merlin’ people. He isn’t a braggart though; it’s more of an internal validation until someone asks him for help in a subject. 

3. Phil first really approaches Dan in his second year. He brought a hamster to Hogwarts (look, they’ve gotten relatively relaxed since Harry defeated the Dark Lord and the Peter Pettigrew Incident) and didn’t realize she was pregnant. The hamster had five babies and Phil remembered the lonely looking Slytherin who sat at the back of three of their house’s shared classes and thought “the boy needs a friend” so he gives Dan one of the babies. Dan names her Suki and spends so much time trying to make her happy.

4. Dan and Phil first kiss in Hogsmeade towards the end of their sixth year. Because look, these boys are magical but you can’t expect magic to help them get a clue. But they are sitting one one of the benches in town during early March and sipping Butterbeer and Phil just looks over and knows he has to kiss Dan. It’s a biological need. And it’s a good first kiss, warm and syrupy from the butterbeer.

5. Look I love Phil but I’m 99% sure Phil is someone who splinches when he Apparates. He leaves behind clothes more often than not, but there was one instance he left behind his left hand. Dan is fond, but it definitely explains the 20000 socks just lying around the flat they get after graduating.

The Good, The Bad, and The Dirty: RWBY Vol 6 E 12

I wish I could’ve enjoyed this, but the fact that this episode could’ve been perfectly merged with last weeks episode for a rightful 23-25 minute episodes makes me angry.

Overall rating: 3/10

A.N.: First we got all buildup, now we got all pay off. Why do they keep doing this?

The Good:

Quick spoilers for the review ahead: most of the contents of this section are about the Bee vs. Adam fight. In fact, the 3/10 rating is earned because of this since I was just bored during the fist half and during the cliffhanger.

A quick shoutout to Ruby for figuring out an alternative way to neutralize Cordovin without yelling it or making it as obvious as Oscar’s plan was. TBH the writers did a poor job trying to execute the first plan by being just as obvious to make it not work.

This week the fight between Blake, Yang and Adam continues, but unlike last week, both girls get to fight by each others side. What’s really interesting about the scenes showcased on this episode is the way both adapt to their current circumstances and still manage to get that sweet Bumbleby combo we’ve experienced in previous volumes.

They are both quick on their feet, always in sync. Blake’s evasive technique and light hits help to destabilize Adam while Yang carries the punch (literally). She distracts him and positions him right where Yang needs him to be. Not only that, but she makes sure Adam cannot absorb any of Yang’s heavy hits, completely conscious of how that can backfire.

Of course, the ribbon combo attack the pair is known for makes a comeback. This time, Yang grabs what’s left of Gambol Shroud to protect Blake and is the one throwing her partner around.

The flying cat Faunus is not strong enough to break Adam’s stance and she’s thrown away, and her aura breaks. Like everyone guessed, Blake’s aura is purple, the same shade Yang’s bandana is ;)

Now is Yang’s turn to hold her ground against Adam while she keeps an eye on Blake, who could easily fall to there death. hOW THE FUCK CAN SHE CLIMB WITH HEELS.

“The moment of truth, Yang. Do you think you’re faster than you were at Beacon?”

Yang trembles.

“Me neither.”

Here’s the second thing I wanted to point out about this fight: Adam still tries to use manipulation to get the upper hand. He knows a part of Blake still fears him, and he knows Yang’s trauma is associated with him.

Again and again he has tried to exploit this, but once more: he fails.

Yang goes for an evasive tactic rather than an offensive one, more proof of her character development.

Adam continues taunting, because he has no other tools or tactics he can use. He desperately tries to clutch to power, even though last episode showed him that Yang and Blake are at their strongest when together.

This is why he wanted to sever that link in volume 3. Even if he didn’t know how good of a team they were, he knew the best way to break Blake was through Yang.

“What does she even see in you!” remarks how out of his element Adam is. He lost the fight before he actually lost it.

Yang’s Semblance makes a return, but TBH the animation was pretty underwhelming considering we’ve waited for its comeback for about 3 years. I think Adam’s Moonslice animation has been maintained. Everything from the color palette shift, to the way the red on his outfit lights up. His presence is there.

Yang’s Semblance doesn’t bust in victorious and glorious. It’s more like a tame flame. I appreciate the fire effects, and the way Yang’s moments are highlighted with 2D yellow effects, but where’e the frame distortion? The glowing red eyes? The final punch was nice, but overall, I’m disappointed.

Finally, the moment we all have been waiting for comes: Adam Taurus’s death. Have some popcorn peeps. There was no other way to end the whole arc, Adam was irredeemable.

If you wanted me to be honest, I thought Adam was going to fall to his death in some fight scenario where he was so consumed by anger and his obsession that he looses it; or Yang was going to be the one ending it.

Having them both kill him, with both halves of Gambol Shroud no less, is so fucking powerful and fitting. Of course, quite traumatic for Blake, who would be the one most affected by it.

I think they nailed the reaction. Aside from the obvs Bumbleby excitement, Blake breaking down, the remainder of the promise and Yang comforting her so delicately is the perfect way to end this arc.

Unfortunately, it isn’t quite as cathartic and beautiful since we’re cut short by the need to establish another cliff hanger.

The Bad:

I see people left and right on RT’s forms, Tumblr and YouTube praising the CRWBY for getting better at pacing or even “nailing” it.

Boi, oh boi, could you not be more wrong.

This episode could and should’ve been part of last episode. There’s no reason why any writer would cut the momentum episode 11 carried for a cheap cliff hanger and have the resolution to the fights be concluded 7 days later.

Do you know what real shows do? They make a two parter. A half an hour special.

I could bring up AtlA, but I’m going to bring up SU.

Do you know what’s going to happen next Monday on CN?

A 45 minute special Steven Universe season finale.

You know why?

Because the best way to finalize the diamond arc is by paying off all the buildup with a huge chunk of content! The decision to have the final 4 episodes group together to deliver some satisfactory pay off will be a blast.

Yes, we don’t know how season is going to end, but I can fucking tell you this special is the best way to end this arc.

SU’s atrocious schedule has made a lot of people drop the show, and I don;’t blame them. CN doesn’t know what its doing, and it’s purposefully killing shows with this (Se also: Adventure Time).

However, if there’s something the Crewniverse know how to do is delivering a story that can fit an episode.

A beginning/set up, a middle and a resolution/ending.

RWBY doesn’t do that. Episodes are: all build up, all buildup + some middle, some middle+tiny resolution.

The only way one can truly enjoy RWBY is by binge watching it, but unfortunately, RT doesn’t release the episodes Netflix style.

Do they change and adapt their writing because of this?

No, they don’t.

The problem wasn’t that the RWBY girls were separated, it’s that the writing team doesn’t know how to properly pace a story for an audience.

Also, is anyone bothered by the fact that no matter how many times Cordovin hit the Atlesian ship, that thing could still work?

Way to kill the momentum.

The Dirty:

I see a lot of people reflagging GIFs of Ruby and Qrow showing how much the girl has grown and how conflicted he might be, and TBH I see what you do.

I know Qrow looks at Ruby and probably thinks of Summer.

Summer is dead; Ruby is not, and Qrow wants to keep it that way. But Ruby is on her way to becoming an adult, she’s the leader on her team, a figure to her friends and the protagonist of the show. She has to show she’s prepared to take a stance.

Awesome scenes guys! You forgot something tho:

Rubys conflict.

Just like the glazed over Oscars big “this is what I stand for” moment of his arc, we never see Ruby at her weakest.

People complained of this during volume 4, but have you not notice she has not broken down or showed a real crisis? This 5 minutes with the apathy is not enough, and though I love her questioning Ozpin, I feel this needed more fuel.

Sometimes it feels like the writers know what a protagonist is supposed to sound like and act like, but don’t quite get how they got there.

Oh yeah, Grimm show up btw. We all knew this so meh.

Overall rating: 3/10

A.N.: Someone should really teach Miles and Kerry the ways episodes are structured. It’s season 6 and still haven’t grasped how to write an episodic series.

Top Ten VLD Ships Game

Oh god, I was tagged by @paternaltendencies and I also saw my good friend @kunfetti do this list and I’m not gonna lie, I’m afraid my list is so painfully childish that you could barely guess we are all the same age... thank you for putting up with my fangirl ass and constant shitposting! You guys are the best! Haha. Anyways, here we go! (Only the top 3 get a gif)

1. KLANCE

*Insert oprah gif here*. I mean, does anyone who knows me even doubt it? Lol. We’ve had our ups and downs with this ship, but still they are my favs. It’s because of them I even started writing and honestly? It kinda changed my life? So they are the eternal champions of my heart <3 (also KICK ‘cause I don’t know when to give up). I don’t even have to add this, but the content is neverending and tbh, this ship is so full of talented people it’s INSANE. The impact still shocks me. And since I don’t interact with the core fandom, for me it’s always been like taking a stroll lol.

2. SHATT

This is easily a tie in the first place, after all they are my preferred combo. Listen to me, kiddos. This ship? Is precious. Y’all sleeping on it. I’m glad Matt has had 2 glow ups ‘cause every time, we’ve seen new people join and that’s GOOD. The content is precious. All my mutuals came exclusively from THIS ship, they are the chillest group of people I’ve ever seen and the quality of the fics is INSANE. Give it a try, and since I’m trying to convert you check these authors: Kunfetti, paternaltendencies, Eilera, luddleston, Martieek and some works from BossToaster. Also shatt sunday? A reason to live through the week. This is a pairing with history, cute af, infinite potential (and the last 5 minutes of s7 can suck it lol).

3. LOTURA

Have you ever shipped something that comes true and then is shattered to pieces the very same episode? No? Well we lotura stans have, and we deserve some respect! I knew 2 things from the very moment this purple goblin appeared: 1. I was adopting him, 2. He would sweet talk my Allura sooner or later, because they are in the same level and totally can balance each other. Together? We all owe them money. Also, lost heirs with gorgeous hair finding their place in this universe? Guess it was too good to be true. I had hope for a better outcome tho. One that didn't include genocide, for example. Still, I have faith in s8 👀 (again, I'm don't know when to give up). All I ask is... no more awkward close ups on kisses, please vld crew. That shit scarred me, and I’m a stan.

4. KEITOR

“Tf you on, woman?” you ask in a terrified voice, pointing at me with your finger. I bring my pan and pot and smash them together to scream: THEY HAD A LOT IN COMMON. THEY DESERVED A MOMENT OR TWO. THEY ARE A TOTAL POWER COUPLE. But!!! Then they didn't cross a word and we had to retort to fics. Ty, vld. Still, good art and good fics and the fandom is quiet and the right amount of fucked up. Love them. Also a good part of my love for this ship I owe it to my good friend @conisaura who is an AU genius. Tenía que decirlo, bai.

5. ADASHI

I truly wish this one didn’t grow up so much on me, but hey! It could be worse!... wait, no, it couldn’t. It’s a great ship, I’m just weak to happy Shiro? Too bad the vld crew ain’t on that lol. Well, let’s be real, we know their relationship was hard and had already hit the bottom, but even if they weren’t meant to be a couple again, Adam’s treatment was awful. In the end, this ship stays in this place out of pure spite, ‘cause I’m THAT petty. And the art is truly gorgeous. You guys are gods, creating paradise out of nothing.

6. SHANCE

Tbh, this is the only sha**din pairing I can dig. And I dig it. Shiro deserves love, that's out of question. Lance does too. And I'm weak to pretty dorks, which... both of them are. I think it's a gorgeous pair, full of chemistry and badass, they totally would complement each other and I'm sure Shiro would let go of a lot of his issues with someone like Lance. Now that the paladins are older in canon, honestly my irks regardins this ship are all gone. Go for it guys!

7. CORALFOR/ALFORAN

Listen, old Coran loved that dork king and I totally ship them. Even he ships themselves (?).  And I love Coran a lot, so in the pathetic distribution of unnecessary couples last season, I wish they had the delicacy of giving some love to our fav Altean pan, at least. But nope. SO... COME TO ME, GORGEOUS MAN <3. (You wish I was kidding, right? I am not).

8. HEITH

I could probably fill this list with only all Hunky ships, he is just... Perfect. The perfect bf to anyone (where do I find a Hunk for me?). But to Keith? A match made on heaven, I mean, they are literally all the other needs in this life. After s7? Suspicions totally confirmed. I just... Love Hunk. And Keef. This is a good ship. Wish there was more content tho, especially sfw (the Hunk thirst is real here in tambler).

9. ALLURANCE

So low? You salty? Nope, I ain't. Not at this ship, at least. I love Allura dearly and I've always acknowledged Lance's crush on her (please, who wouldn't have a crush on her?). If I did this before last season tho, it would probably have been in adashi’s place, but right now I'm kinda... Eh. Unfair to judge based on canon, but I can't help it... Still, it stays in my list! If they give us good, wholesome allurance next season, I'm gonna be fine. That drawing bit at the end of s7, for example? That’s good. That’s what I want to see.

10. HUNELLE

Sorry Shay, honey, but you weren't there for too many seasons and s7 gave me sassy, tired power couple which is far more attractive to me than cinnamon roll couple :(. Still... I don't trust this Romelle lady, so I'm glad Hunky is smarter than me to choose partners lolol.

BONUS: KINCLAIN

This one is my newest ship and is pure crack, but I just know it’s gonna climb like a friggin spider on this list, I can see it!!! Ryan Kinkade, the tough, silent mfe pilot, smiling because he can't resist Lance's charm?? Hello guys??? Pure af. I may or may not be writing something right now...

PS: I’m just aware of the lack of wlw in this list. I’m kinda baffled? But I’m pretty sure this is due to the fact I don’t ship Pidge with anyone AND the general lack of good interactions between the ladies in this show. I can’t even ship ezor and zethrid without remembering they KILLED THEM. TY VLD CREW??????

So I’m gonna just tag a fellow voltron stan who I guess I always scare with my random interactions (sorry honey I’m awkward af, no pressure to do this), @gayromanticsubplots and anyone who wants to do this, feel free to tag me so I can see! <3

2 x 11 questions tag game + Bold stuff tag game

And we got tagged by some lovely people, thank youu ♥

1 - tagged by @lingolden​

What’s your favorite beverage? least favorite? Water / Coke

Name 3 things on your bucket list. To watch a men volleyball match (NT or serie A1) live, to see a dawn from a rooftop with someone, to save a life (in any way)

What attracted you to learning each of your target languages?

What do you do when you’re feeling down in order to cheer yourself up? Read, study a language or something, listen to music, but mostly go out and take photos

Opinions on social media? Love it? Hate it? Not sure, I’m not that much into them despite I recognize that, if used well (not thinking about how many people follow you and how they see you and mostly respecting the other person) they are good to learn from each other and exchange stuff and ideas and culture in general

Do you already have childrens’ names picked out? Kinda, but I’ll talk with their dad ofc (if I’ll ever meet him lol)

If you got to do-over one moment, what would you choose? Any moment with my dog

Do you want to be famous? I’m good here in the shadow

What do you do when you can’t sleep? Daydream, imagine some random FF in my head

Not really a question, but…go learn 5 words in your target language! Hmm should I write in Italian (for learners) or Russian? Whatevs, here both (RUS - ENG - ITA):

мо́ре - sea - mare не́бo - sky - cielo о́блако - cloud - nuvola о́зеро - lake - lago океа́н - ocean - oceano

______________________________________________________

2 - tagged by @langscollector​

1. Do you like spicy food? Yes, but not too spicy

2. If you could move somewhere, where would it be and why? Idk probably somewhere else in Italy.. I think it could happen only if I found a job or the love of my life (lol... mostly a job though). I like staying here.

3. What kind of learner are you (visual, auditory..)? Hmm... visual? I usually write stuff when I have to learn something, it helps me focus and remember. I used to have a very good photographic memory, but now... not that much lol

4. What was the last photo you took? This one I think.

5. What’s your cure for hiccups? Squeezing some lemon juice in my mouth (I hope this sounds bad only for a very tired me at past midnight).

6. Do you have a motto/ quote you live by? There are a few tbh, for example, as Confucius said: non fare agli altri ciò che non vorresti fosse fatto a te = Do not do to others what you would not like them to do to you.

7. Share your favourite meme or funniest joke. Honestly the thing I love the most is this gif because the first time I saw it, it said “me entering a spiderweb”, and that’s actually what I do when I accidentally enter a spiderweb. No more sure about my choice btw.

8. If you were to change your name, which one would you choose? I used to like Sabrina, and Alessandra. I’d go for the second one, despite I started to like my name recently.

9. What’s the one thing you regret buying? Uhmm... probably a pair of trousers I only wore a couple of times. I liked them but I don’t have many occasions to actually wear them.

10. What food do you crave often? Bruschetta, or salatini. Appetizers basically.

11. Describe your ideal day. Simply a calm, slow day. With no news at all. A pretty boring day, spent on my own, far from all the problems, and all the phones and everything. LOL

My Questions: using again some old questions nobody answered yet. 1. What is one thing you have to do but hate to do?? 2. Let’s suppose I’m visiting your hometown: what should I do/see first? 3. What’s your biggest dream? Is it the same you had when you were little? 4. Tell me a line/quote from your favorite book/song/movie 5. What’s the first word you learnt in the language you’re learning/have learnt? 6. Is there a very old memory you want to share? 7. Do you talk to yourself? What do you usually tell you? 8. Let’s suppose you have a terrible memory (as me), and you need to take a note: do you take a pen and write it down or do you write it on your smartphone? 9. Do you like to swim? 10. What’s your biggest passion? 11. Do you have a particular bad habit?

MX reactions when you’re a pretty terrible driver

HOnestly, I haven’t even picked up that damn drivers book yet (I put myself to sleep tbh) and I graduated last year... I mean I CAN drive, but apparently without a little plastic card I’m breaking laws XD BUT, this request honestly made me laugh when I read it and I say thinking about these reactions just made my day.  Thank you for the fun request and I hope you like it!!! 

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

Shownu: Although it was such a high risk for him, he’d be the best supporter he could be, but honestly his irritation for how horrible a driver you are, would far surpass his fear at this point.  He’d be impressed on how you couldn’t drive to save your life, or his for that matter.  He’d try so hard, but he’d need a break, that or a reason big enough to gently tell you to just forget driving and he’ll take you to and from places to spare lives. 

“No, Jagi listen- doN’T JUST BRAKE LIKE THAT.  *breathes*  Listen, we may need to rethink our options here.” 

Wonho: Support: 9/10, Fear 11/10.  He’d wanna help so hard, but every time he see you get into the drivers seat, he wants to just run the hell away (this boy can’t say no to you, you’re too gosh darn cute).  When you offer to drive him to the gym he’d just smile and say okay, but honestly, he’d rather not.  If he’s in the car with you already with you behind the wheel, you bet your eggrolls he’d be holding that niffy ‘oh shit handle’ above his head so tightly he could go pull ups in his seat. However, he’d always make it a point to give you tips and tell you right from wrong, basically as soon as you start and nonstop, just hoping no one pulls you over. 

“Okay, first off, you best put your seat belt on.  You know, safety and all that.  Now, uh, just go and I’ll teach while you drive.  Watch the road though, and the gas, and don’t brake suddenly, and no tailing people, that pisses them off.” 

Minhyuk: Silent terror. He’d appear, basically calm while he gave you a route to drive around.  It’d be a small route, no longer than 5 minutes circling a block or, but honestly, your horrible driving had him literally on the edge of his seat.  He’d have his hand on the door at all times, ready to unlock that door and jump his ass out if he had to, but he couldn’t let you know that.  He’d give you pointers, point to the signs and what they them and how your should memorize them.  He’d point out the lines in the road and the traffic lights and even the right ways to do what.  But, one wrong move from you and he’d sometimes lose his calm appearance and jump, nearly hitting his head on the car ceiling.  

“Aight, so those lines mean it’s a one way street.  Don’t go the other way, or else it’s gonna be real bad Hun.  That sign there means to yield and stop for people.  It’s obviously VERY bad to hit someone. *jumps when you brake hard at a stop light* Oh dear god.” 

Kihyun: He’d be the person would make sure you know the rules backwards and forwards before he even lets you look at a car.  He’d be driving you somewhere and he’d randomly throw these questions at you, and if you got it wrong, he’d postpone your actual driving.  Tbh, he’s just scared out of his wits to even be put in the same car as you while you drive.  He’s heard stories, and he wants no part in one of them.  But, as a caring mother boyfriend he’d put his life on the line and teach you, but he’d teach you very carefully.  He’d smile through his fear and when he’s had enough for one day, he’s reach over, grab the stirring wheel, make you pull over, take the keys out of the ignition and tell you he’s driving the rest of the way.

“Y-yeah, that was good.  You didn’t jump the curb at that turn babe, that’s improvement I would say.  Now, uh- ah!  Pull off there.  *grabs the wheel, easing you into a parking space on the side of the road and takes the keys once you park*  Now, out.  I’m driving now.” 

Hyungwon: The ‘what the actual hell’ kinda teacher.  He’d criticize basically everything.  He wouldn’t be scared, so much as actually concerned for how horrible our skills behind the wheel were. He’d be more concerned with the people outside who have to actively avoid not getting hit by you while they cross a crosswalk.  Don’t let it slip though, between his criticisms and comments, he would tell you useful tips and tricks to not die.  He’d also like to mock the way your sit and move the wheel like your nervous. His meme game is strong when you drive, let’s be real. 

“So, rule 1, don’t hit a person.  Rule 2, literally stay on the road.  What are you even doing?  How can someone be so bad at this, literally a 4 year old could drive better than you.  Bruh, are you actually bad at this, or are you shitting with me right now?” 

Jooheon: He’d try so hard, but teaching wouldn’t really happen here.  Y’all know this child has no filter or volume control when he’s scared.  If you did something even the slightest bit wrong, he’s just light your car with screaming and shouting and rapid slaps on the headboard.  He’d literally start having a relationship with his seat belt, while losing his mind. He loves you, but you’re going out with the easily anxious child.  I pray for you in your attempts to drive.  With time, you learn to drive with someone else’s help, and just leave Jooheon to pout at home while your out with someone else actually learning things.  

“OKay, I’m okay, no worriES OMG YOUR GOING OVER THE SPEED LIMIT.”

“Jooheon-”

“OMG WATCH THE ROAD.  DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING?! WHERE ARE YOUR GOING?! wHERE ARE WE?!”

“I’m never taking you anywhere ever again, I swear to god.” 

“gOOD!”

I.M: Concerned and afraid.  If you even mentioned the idea of having him help you drive better, he’d go and actually put on an extra lay of clothes ‘for protection’.  He has ZERO confidence in your attempt to drive less trashy, but he’ll support you anyways.  Honestly, if you manage a block without jumping a curb or almost hitting a sign, it’d be a pleasant surprise and you’d get a nice pat on your leg as a ‘congratulations for not killing me’.  He would probably also be the most useful in teaching.  He’d have the book with him, or at least tip pulled up on his phone and would point out literally everything you should learn while also giving you little quizzes when your stopped.  He’d teach, but out of fear.  He also gave you a time limit, 10 minutes driving practice then he’s outtie. 

“Okay, as soon as we’re on the road, your time starts. Now, pay attention to signs and be cautious. Remember, get me back home in 10 or else I’m hoping out and walking.  I’m 100% serious. *Makes it out of the parking lot without hitting a car or bumping into anything*  Ooooh, good job babe.  That’s a solid start.”

Uncharted Part 5

Warnings: None 

Word Count: 2.2k

A/n: Helll0oo! I’m back with another part of Uncharted, I hope you guys enjoy. I’m hoping you guys don’t think I’m going to slow, I really wanted to build a trust and a certain camaraderie between you and the team. Also, because it seems strangely unrealistic to have them suddenly trust you full- heartedly. Don’t worry Bucky’s coming soon…:) 

PSA: Tear In My Heart PArt 2 is coming soon too. I’m having some serious writer’s BLOCK so I’m sorry for that, it should be up this week though ! And I do have some other things coming so stay tuned :))) Part 1

Part 3

Part 4

Gif not mine tbh just needed a good fight scene

Training Room, Avengers Tower

 “And why are we here?” Pietro asks in his accented English, one hand slung over his sister’s shoulders. The siblings were leaning against the stack of mats.  

“We’re here to test out the newbie!” Clint says snickering a little bit.  The sound of a glass door opening and footsteps interrupts their endless teasing.

 “Clint, please.” Steve walks towards the group with an exasperated glare. Natasha, Thor, Vision, Bruce, Clint, Pietro, Wanda and Sam were there, the only people missing was Tony and (y/n). 

“They’ll be here any second.” The rest of the group restarted chatting amicably before the two people they’ve been waiting for entered the room. 

Your POV 

You wring your hands together and pace the room while waiting for Tony. You were excited and nervous. You knew that you could do this, you’ve trained yourself for years and you were confident in your skills. But, even amongst a group of superhuman, sometimes enhanced, people, you had a fear of being the odd one out. 

The pressurized air hush of your apartment door opens and a familiar sound of footsteps enter your household. 

“Ready?” He asks standing next to you. You look up to him and you see something you’ve never seen before. Even in the short time that you’ve known him personally, there’s one thing you never thought he’d be. Tony was being serious, his brows were tightly knitted together and his lips were pursed.

  “Hey, you okay?” You place a reassuring hand on his arm..  

“Ya, it’s just,” he pauses, he rubs a hand over his face and slips a small smile onto his face,” actually, never mind. You’ll be fine.” You frown at him unconvinced, but leave it at that. 

He places a guiding hand on the small of your back and leads you to the elevator once again. He presses a couple of buttons as you make idle talk about trivial subjects. He almost distracts you completely from your purpose. It lingers in the back of your mind, but bothers you less now.  

You walk through a large and high hallway, or tunnel, that suited it better. Security cameras littered every couple of feet. You walked for a good minute before seeing two large frosted glass double doors with chrome handles and a keypad on either side.

 “Ready?” He pauses with one hand on the handle. You give a shaky nod. You walk through the door and hear the conversation die instantly._ How wonderful, just kill the vibe the moment you walk into the room_.  

 “So who’s going to step into the ring with (y/n)?” Sam whispers to Steve.

 “Not yet.” He responded, Sam gave him a confused look.

 You say hi to everyone and everyone responds in their one way. Sam, Pietro and Thor look like they’re on an episode of the Bachelor, sporting boyish smiles and tight shirts. Clint and Natasha give you friendly smiles, you were a bit taken aback by Natasha’s warm welcome, but took it as a good sign. Steve just gave you a big grin, came over and put a welcoming hand on your shoulder. Bruce was standing casually in the back, observing quietly, alongside Vision who was floating, observing you curiously.   

Steve turns to you and starts speaking, “Alright, so we’re here to see what you can do. Not that we don’t trust Fury or anything but still. Ok?” He talks as if he’s speaking solely to you, yet he’s obviously addressing the rest of the group too. You nod. 

“I want you to start off by demonstrating your powers. I only got a glimpse when we were in your apartment.”  At this point, the room had shifted and held an air of curiosity mingling with a certain stranger-danger. You totally understood where they were coming from though, you were, in the end, just a university student.  

As they looked at you intently, you stepped away from your blankets of safety and into the middle of the training area.  

“Let’s get started” you declare. 

Steve’s POV 

Her petite body moved swiftly and quietly to the middle of the large expanse of semi-hard mats.  

“Does someone have a soccer ball or like a baseball?” Her voice calm, collected. 

“Uh ya, here you go.” Clint tosses a softball in her direction. She catches easily in one hand, not even blinking. Good Reflexes. 

 “Steve? Could you turn your back to me and stand right there?” He raises a questionable eyebrow, but follows her orders, turning his back to the other members of the team. 

“I take it you have good reflexes, so you should be ok.” She says, that piques the interest of everyone in the room. 

 “Here we go.” She mutters to herself softly.  A beat of silence goes by. Then, a quiet gust of air washed over them and a jagged hole the size of a basketball just appeared mid-air. Seconds after, a second one showed up right in front of Steve. He stepped back in surprise, but went back to his previous position.  When you looked into the portal you could see the point of view of the other juxtaposing opening. 

From his view, he could see (y/n), in front of him. Around the edges of the portal were swirling particles of iridescent purple and blue hues seemingly suspended.  

“I’m going to throw the ball through the portal.” She explains. Lightly, she tosses the ball straight through, where Steve catches it easily about ten feet away.   

Your POV 

“That’s one way I could use it. Most of the time I just use it grab some stuff around the house.” You attempt to lighten the mood. You’re met with admiring gazes and curious looks. You didn’t really expect much else. 

 “WOah, that’s so cool.” You hear the voice of a really young kid from behind you. You jerk your head to the side to see a kid that could only be about 15 years old, who is taller than you. (At this point everyone was taller than you)

 Tony stalks over to the young adolescent. “What are you doing, Peter? F.R.I.D.A.Y  can you tell me how Peter got in here?” 

You let him have access to the Tower any time. I quote : “Just give the kid what he wants.” 

“Alright, alright, I got it. Ok, Parker, you get to stay here, but be quiet. We’re testing out the new girl.”  

The room quiets down from their barely controlled fits of laughter. Despite being the second newest member of the team, they really appreciated his presence. He added a youthful side to the team, always there to cheer them up with the naivety of any high schooler.

  “Oh hey! I’m, uh, Peter, ya, Peter Parker.”  You smile lightly.

 “Nice to meet you Peter.” The young boy blushes a bit. 

 “Ok, who’s going up against (y/n) in the ring?” Steve asks. You look at him incredulously, he just shrugs, an air of faked nonchalance hiding his discomfort. If you’re lucky, Steve probably feels bad for you, what a gentleman. 

 “I’ll go.” Clint says, sauntering over to your side. 

“Do I get to keep my gear?” He asks you tauntingly.  

“Wouldn’t have it any other way.” You smile smugly, you hear a couple of people snicker. 

You climb up into the ring, mentally preparing yourself for what’s to come. You jump up and down, roll your neck one way then the other, crack your knuckles and stretch out your back. Clint is getting ready too, you could tell that his arms were ridiculously strong but his right arm might have more give then the left. His stance is solid, but given the chance to  knock him down, the left knee would be a keeper. You see him assessing you in the same calculating gaze and you let him.

  “Ready?”  

You give a curt nod and start circling each other.  It was clear he wanted you to make the first move and he would wait until the end of time for you to make it so you decided to play it dirty and call a bluff. 

You breathed in deeply through your nose and moved quickly sending a light jab to his right side making sure it was quick and short, not enough to hurt but just enough to wind. You took your chance to send a swift kick, testing the waters, but a strong hand pushes you back and sends you hurling backwards only to be caught off guard again by a series of calculated blows through your torso. 

You grit your teeth and let out a low growl, blocking off the pain. You hit quickly and efficiently maximising the strength of your blows, making sure to lock your wrists. He was obviously taken aback, not recognising the fighting style you were using. 

You easily blocked his attacks using his lack of knowledge as an advantage.  You quickly get down to one knee pulling his other leg towards you, he gives out a off-guarded shout and before he knows it, you open a portal small enough for your hand that leads to his other ankle. Your grab a hold of it and yank as hard as you can, making for an ungraceful belly flop by Clint.  

He groans and you put one hand on the back of his neck, your right knee in the middle of his back with all his gear detached in your other hand.  You kneel there panting and sweating just a little bit.

 “God, you’re like a tiny Bruce Lee.” He groans laying on the mat. 

You stand up, still a little out of breath and look around the rooms. You’re not sure whether to be scared or proud. Thor, Pietro, Sam, Spidey are all looking at you with mixed levels of attraction, fear and pride. Cap and Tony both have a knowing smirk that said  I knew she could do that. Natasha had a small smile on her face, probably because Clint just got knocked on his ass. Wanda and Vision were obviously impressed, but smiled.  

“Well, welcome to the team.” Tony says proudly. Everyone vacates the gym, still seemingly impressed by your abilities. You just stand there and turn back to Clint who is still laying on the floor miserably. 

“Hey, Clint, you okay? Some of those techniques were rusty.” You offer a hand for him to get up. He looks at you and pauses at your outstretched hand, gauging whether he could trust you or not. He makes a decision and grips your smaller hand firmly and hauls himself up. 

“You’re really good. I’m surprised, most people Fury brings in don’t even hold up when they hang around us. 

“I’m impressed, you should train with Nat a bit, she’ll love it.” You blush slightly at the praise. Despite the fight you just had, he seems really nice, you couldn’t help but notice a fatherly vibe under all the childlike mannerisms.  

“Thanks,” you look back at the door where Tony was waiting for you. 

“I better head back now.” He huffs out a laugh.”Ya, he seems to have adopted you.” You chuckle at that. 

“I guess he has.” 

You leave the archer and walk towards the billionaire.

 “Hey sweet cheeks, how’s it going?” He slings an arm over your shoulders, you jump a little at the contact, but relax. 

“I’m still… overwhelmed.”  He leads you over to his lab where Bruce is already working. 

 “That’s pretty normal. Now I know you dropped out of MIT for reason you will not disclose BUT I am granting you access to my lab as long as you don’t touch any of my stuff without my permission. And Bruce’s for that matter, God forbid that happens again.” He says shaking his head. 

Then again, you don’t notice, because you can’t wrap your head around the fact that these people are being so generous towards you. A stranger.  

You just stopped in your tracks, staring at the floor. You were still trying to get your mind to comprehend the fact that you deserved this. 

“Uh, hey, (y/n). What’s going on? Because you know, if that was too much I could tell Cap, or maybe Clint. I could talk to Clint if you want… Or maybe…”

 “No, no. It’s fine. It’s just- are you sure they’re good with me? I mean with me on the team?”

 “Yes,” and the way he said it, so plain and so simple, it made you feel better instantly,” I can tell you’re going to be an incredible asset to the team. I mean, you got Thor to love you, and Cap’s already convinced you’re like a tiny ninja. Half the team is ogling you.”  

You laugh a little, that last bit of doubt slipping away. He’s really good at this comforting thing. 

 “Thank you.” The message you wanted to convey clear in those two little words. Tony seems to  understand that and offers your shoulder a comforting squeeze before dragging you to your new workstation and rambling on and on about his new discoveries, inventions and ideas. 

 You couldn’t be more content being on the receiving end of his thoughts.

Hello!

Hello could I have explained ship with Bts and exo please?i am a mild extrovert who loves animals and babies a lot. People who don’t know me as well would describe me as shy and demure but with my friends I am known an the quirky funny yet oddly charming one lol in my group and often notice small things others wouldn’t. I love cuddles and humor is a must in any relationship with me haha.i can be very random sometimes and I love pulling harmless pranks, thriller and horror movies ,anime,ADVENTURES, mangas, comics etc.i am very caring to someone I like and like assisting people whenever I can.i often space out and do weird stuff without realizing it.i love old people as well because they can be adorable sometimes like my grandma haha. More tomboyish than girly. Friends say I am adorable tho becuz of my automatic facial expressions and my ability to get hurt anywhere haha.family is everything to me. Can be blunt sometimes and tease you a lot lol . I believe in the possibilities of aliens fully and have theories abt them lmao. Going to volunteer at animal shelters and nursery homes soon.im okay with pda but u can guarantee I will be blushing a lot and be all over the place ( I do blush easily ugh). Would love it if my partner was my partner is crime with me . Love amusement parks and playgrounds. Can be very playful one minute then the next I’d just wanna lay down and cuddle and have deep talks.love acting out scenarios by myself lol.loveeee babies and would like to have three at least when married.i tend to ask a lot of weird random questions and my friends get a headache everytime I ask them lol and they often say they can’t understand how my mind works .altho I can be quite childish , I know when to be serious and can give pretty good advice to ppl who need it. Loyalty is a must for me as I am extremely loyal to both friends and partner. I can be sensitive at times as well and will cry out of anger or sadness easily which I hate.i love playing games which both of us can enjoy and also like playing badminton and tennis. My fashion style is usually casual and simple with a elegant or tomboyish touch to it altho when going out I tend to go more towards the casual sophisticated style haha. I love beanies , snap backs and hoodies as well as sweaters.since I’m 5"2 , apparently everything I do makes me look adorable (according to friends)and the fact that I have a tomboyish personality doesn’t help lol. I can be girly sometimes and it usually involves me touching anything cute and fangirling over it haha.i love drawing,painting and listening to new music and discovering them as well.i give at least 110% to everything I am passionately towards. Thanks and keep up the hard work!😚

Of course, hun! Tbh you sound like a bundle of fun to hang out with! And thank you! I’ll do my best to keep working hard! <3

From BTS I ship you with... V!

Okay so this was a done deal the minute you said you’d want them to be your partner in crime. I mean, loving animals and kids? Being quirky and funny? I think this boy has those covered and would join you in playing with animals or do strange things to make you laugh. I personally view him as someone who, once he was committed to someone in a relationship, would be loyal to the end.  And I think he’d take you on dates to amusement parks or just on walks through a park, and would be amused that you go from playful to cuddly. And having random conversations about things like aliens? I don’t see a problem there. I could however see him randomly hugging you or something just to see you blush and you’d just see him smiling that big rectangle smile at you and poking your cheek. Over all, I could see there not being a dull moment, and having so many random conversations that just end in him poking your nose while cuddling and just being completely adorable!

And from EXO I ship you with... Xiumin!

Okay so I was tempted to say Baekhyun or Chanyeol, but for some reason, I felt like Xiumin was a better fit! Okay so I personally think that this guy has a great sense of humor (all I can think of is his “Hawaii” pun lol). I think he’d also be someone who would notice certain things about people that others might not, and I feel like he is someone who would want to be there for people and give advice when he can, so you’d have a partner in that. I also think he would be a bit of a prankster, so either you two could team up on someone else, or you’d have the prank war of your life. I feel like he’s also someone who would highly value loyalty in a relationship, and would do his best to be there for both you and your family. I think he’d be someone who would be a more private person with skinship other than small things like holding hands or something, but if he were in the right mood, he might hug you or peck your cheek just to see you blush a bit, but I don’t see that happening often. I’d see s lot of your dates being something simple like going to a playground and just talking about anything and everything while sitting on the swings!

I hope you like your ships, and sorry if you didn’t get your biases! (You got two of mine lol <3) Gifs used are not mine: credit to the owner(s)! <3

#1-40. Love you.

alright yall adie wants me to answer everything so here goes the rest of these asks since I don’t have any more from anyone !!!

1. Talk about the first ship you ever had.

I believe I’ve talked about them before, but Chase and Zoey from Zoey 101. I think they were the first pairing I shipped before I even knew what shipping meant. Fun fact; i’ve seen every episode of Zoey 101 

5. Do you have any poly ships?

I do not! Not because I don’t think there should be, I’ve said this before when someone asked me about this that; we all ship what we think love is. That’s kind of just how it ends up being. It’s why so many people ship so many different ships. So yeah, I see love between one person and another person. But that doesn’t mean that poly relationships don’t exist for those that see love differently! :)

6. How do you feel about love triangles?

Get them out of my face aldskjf 

7. How do you feel about RPF?

Not really into it. Just because I imagine being a famous person and reading about myself.. no thanks aha!

8. Have you ever shipped yourself with a character?

No, I mean there are characters where I’m like.. if I was in that world I’d date THEM. (aka scott mccall). But I don’t actively ship myself into fandom lmao.

9. Do you have many ships that never got together at all?

Tommy and Lindy from Eye CandyRachel and Joey from FriendsMalia and Kira from Teen WolfStiles and Cora from Teen WolfAllison and Lydia from Teen WolfClary and Isabelle from Shadowhunters (still holding out hope lmao)+ more probably ahahaha

10. Do you ship any characters that have never met?

Isaac and Malia on Teen Wolf; I feel like their dynamic would be legendary tbh!

11. Talk about your favorite first kiss.

Can I count Stiles and Lydia’s second kiss as their first real kiss? Because goddamn!!!

But otherwise as far as first kisses go.. I think Max and Liz from Roswell might as well take this one because they were so cute and pure and just eep !

12. Have you ever been disappointed when your ship finally got together?

None that I can think of? I was disappointed in Young & Hungry because they kept going back and forth with Josh and Gabby that by the time they got together for like what.. the third time? I was kind of over it. There were other angsty storylines that if they had gotten together then.. would have been better.

14. How do you feel about will they/won’t they?

Ugh I love this trope! Like dancing around each other’s feelings.. it hits home for me as most of the time this is me LMAO

15. Have you ever “shipped at first sight”?

Riley and Lucas on Girl Meets World for sure!

16. Talk about a ship you initially disliked.

Uhhh Stiles and M@lia I guess? But it was only because they really came out of the blue. And I usually like my ships with some kind of build up. And even the ships I have that have no build up, get really good story lines where we see them progress, or at least see the moment they got together. And those I can live with. But these two felt a little last minute, and they only felt like they were together to me in their alone scenes, and it was just odd writing on the production’s part. They did grow on me a bit as time went on; but in the end I never really shipped them.

17. Talk about a pairing you’ve stopped shipping romantically.

Damon & Elena; simply I just realized how much healthier I viewed Stefan & Elena and ended up just dropping this ship altogether.

18. Talk about a moment which made you question an entire ship.

Season 2 of reign made me question Frary a lot. Like m/onde was a complete mess to me, and just everything that happened only to lead back to Frary getting back together in the last like little bit of the season? It was messy and I didn’t like it :(

19. Have you ever shipped something despite yourself?

What an intriguing question?? I suppose Damon & Elena at the time.. because I always knew there was something off about them.

21. Is there a ship you just don’t get, but have nothing against?

I suppose like.. Archie and Veronica?? Like I have nothing against them getting together or not getting together. I just don’t see the appeal I suppose---or I guess I do but I’m not into it.

24. Do you mostly ship canon pairings?

No, I ship whatever I like tbh lmao

25. Have you ever shipped a pairing before you even started watching the show/movie simply because of gifs and graphics or similar?

Currently I dashboard ship: Westallen & Karamel

26. Have you noticed a pattern in your shipping? Is there a romantic dynamic you’re more drawn to?

Yes for sure, I explained more in another ask but simply; Person A loves Person B but is comfortable in loving them from afar (or assumes their love is unrequited) and would do anything to keep this person happy. Meanwhile, Person B doesn’t realize their feelings (or have no feelings as of yet) for Person A until one day they realize that Person A has wormed their way into their heart and now they can’t live without them.(stiles/lydia, katniss/peeta, klaus/caroline, tommy/lindy --- examples)

27. Is there a ship you’ve shipped for most of your life?

Uhhh Stydia and Everlark I suppose? Since I was fourteen/fifteen!

28. Does shipping come easily to you?

Too easily sometimes which is sad for my poor poor heart sometimes!!

29. Do you need to ship something to really enjoy a movie/book/tv show/comic?

Nope!! My favourite stories are ones of found families, where a group of people find home/family where they never thought they would. And those stories are my favourite! Like Teen Wolf, Roswell, Friends, etc.

40. If you could change one thing about your OTP, what would that be?

Since my OTP is Stiles and Lydia.. I mean I guess I’d like to see them together more now that they are together. But with Dylan’s filming schedule I’m not sure how much of that I will get. But I’m content with their story, and it’s one of the reasons I love them so much so I don’t think I could change anything about these stubborn assholes in love?
