#It feels so good to write again ohmygosh…

[sunsetsandsunshine]

Heyyyyy guys ✨🩷🫨🔥‼️ Just wanted to say that I’m officially re-opening my inbox! So feel free to drop in tickle prompts or sumthin 💞💕🥳 (you don’t have to if you don’t want to obvs)‼️‼️‼️

[scarleart]

hellooo i heard you’re taking requests for elliee

could i request ab riding with ellie..?

like omg its so hot imagine riding her abs and it gets so wet and slick… but now there’s no more friction cause all your juices are everywhere :(( and then you get all whiney and noisy cause you just want more more more…

but its okay cause ellie will help her darling right?

right?

AHHH IM GOING INSANE also its perfectly fine if you can’t write it ❤️ take care

p.s. i really love your writing!!!! its rlly good <3

a/n : WTFF I’M ALSO GOING INSANE OHMYGOSH. also thank you so much babe :( you’re the sweetest!!

.˚₊┈୨♡୧┈₊˚.

omg this right here? i’m dying

imagine you’re just straddling ellie’s tummy, her toned and firm abs were being the delicious friction that were making you lose your mind. up until you got so fucking wet that you couldn’t do any sort of movement without slipping and losing your rhythm immediately :(

it just felt the slippery, drenched skin glide along your cunt. no pressure, no friction, nothing to sooth your ache. and ellie?

ellie watched as you struggled to try ANYTHING to feel that sensation on your puffy clit once more. a shit eating smirk breaking out on her face as she seen your hips stuttered, the whines of defeat leaving you continuously. you then placed your hands on the bed behind you, gaining leverage so you can try and ride her once more.

once again… it was nothing but a slippery goddamn mess. nothing there to please you :(

after a few moments, you did the last thing you could think of. you raised your hand to travel down to your weeping pussy, only to be stopped by a firm grip on your wrist.

“did i say you could touch?” the low voice that belonged to ellie rings out, her intense gaze intimidating as she kept staring at you.

“b-but baby—“

“no. did, i say, you could touch?” the freckled girl reprimanded slowly, her slit eyebrow lifting. silently telling you, you should start speaking. ellie was unable to hold in the chuckle that left her when she seen you throw your head back in frustration, your pouty lips turned downwards in a frown. a quiet, broken, “no, els no” then came from you, answering her question.

“yeah? s’why you do it, pup” she questions you in a sympathetic tone. she couldn’t help but to smile softly as she heard your whimper in response. god you were so cute when you were sexually frustrated. ellie eyes flickered down to the mess on her tummy, her abs just glistening with the shiny essence that belonged to you, you practically soaked her.

she then brought her fingers down to your wet, raging clit, rubbing at the poor button with care. she did that for a couple of seconds before bringing her fingers away to then lift them to her mouth. her tongue seeping out to lick at the digits before dropping it back to your pussy. ellie went back to rubbing at you before licking her fingers again.

she repeated the actions a couple of more times with a curse and a bite of her lip. seeing your sexy girlfriend moaning at your taste would be the cause of your death, you’re absolutely fucking sure.

“hm? y’ jus wanted to cum, huh pretty baby?” she murmurs softly, eyes holding an understanding as she nodded at you. at the firm circles on your clit, you were breathing heavily. eyes low and hooded, mewls exiting you left snd right.

you nod feverishly at the green eyed girl.

“un huh, jus wanna cum” you mutter with a pout. ellie smiles at you, her fingers picking up its pace quickly.

“yeah? i can do that”

Ohmygosh happy birthday!! Hope you have a good one and celebrate with your loved ones today :))

Could i request for 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐧𝐚𝐤𝐞? — 🐍 Go on a date with Tom, Ominis, or Sebastian! Send in anything you're comfortable sharing about yourself (such as your love language, 16 personalities), and I'll write a mini HC date, specifically curated for you.

I'm a hufflepuff (she/her), and my love language is physical touch and words of affirmation. I love doing arts and crafts, and I love cats (sorry tom). I'm also an ENFP.

Anyways, happy birthday again!! Have a very blessed one, and I wish you a good day ahead <33

🐍 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐇𝐂: 𝐓𝐨𝐦

Touch-Starved! Tom x Reader

A/N: Thank you so much for the birthday wish!! And I indeed had a great one (had some dim sum). We're very similar in nature it's comical. Also an ENFP, love cats and arts&crafts (embroidery, wood carving, etc). Even the love languages! I have a feeling we'd get along perfectly if we knew each other haha. Anyway, thank you for participating and I hope you'll enjoy it!

You're the embodiment of "Every Dark Lord needs an emotional support Hufflepuff"

He seriously needed an open-minded person like you, who would be willing to just be there for him.

Tom finds your enthusiasm infectious, often reluctantly breaking into a smirk at seeing you smile.

You're brilliant at making connections, gaining a deep understanding of yourself and others.

-----

Your love blossomed in the Room of Requirement.

On his patrol, Tom needed a place to hide, the panic getting to him as dark thoughts overwhelmed him.

He was desperate, and heaved a sigh of relief as the familiar door appeared on the wall.

He froze, when he opened the door, however.

It was you, in your own atelier, with all the tools prepared for any arts and crafts you might be interested in.

You froze as well, not having expected a guest.

Tom glanced around the arts&craft tools.

How on earth were these supposed to help him?

But, being the perceptive and good-natured Hufflepuff that you are, you noticed his dishevelled state.

You asked him if he was doing alright.

Tom couldn't speak. His teary eyes only staring at you and his jaw clenched.

Without a word, he took slow steps towards you.

And buried his face into your shoulder.

Your eyes widened at the tall man that had to crane his neck to reach your shoulder, his fists shaking at his sides and refusing to let a tear drop.

Slowly, you wrapped your arms around him.

Tom's shoulders relaxed significantly at the warmth that enveloped him.

He buried himself deeper into your embrace.

Realising then, that your embrace was his hiding place, shielding him from all of his dark thoughts.

-----

Tom is very possessive about having his emotional support Hufflepuff all for himself.

It took a lot of adjusting and discussions in the beginning.

Tom would practically hog all of your free hours.

And Tom is very selfish when it comes to your kindness and love.

-----

It was only when there was an apparent possibility that you might leave him, that Tom truly began to reconsider.

I can't lose her now.

Tom panicked. Where will he go to hide if she is out of his reach?

Tom grows determined to do anything if it means keeping you. Even if that may require him to change.

He begins taking an interest in you, your values, your interests, and your dislikes.

And questions what he can offer you.

-----

He is timid at first. But slowly grows accustomed to physical affection over time.

He begins with a gentle kiss on your hand.

Then your forehead.

Your cheek.

It ignited something in him when you giggled in response.

Like he was hearing an embodiment of sunshine.

He feels a grin spreading on his lips as well. And his arms swiftly take you, spinning you in the air and letting your skirt flow before embracing you.

He's like a touch-starved cat, in the sense that he grows more and more affectionate over time as he learns to trust.

Rubbing his cheeks against yours. Rubbing the tip of his nose against yours. Thumbing your cheek as he studies you with absolute adoration in his eyes.

It became easier as Tom saw how physical touch made you happy.

Wanting to see you smile, and hear that beautiful laughter in his ears, he is willing to do anything.

Words of affirmation were more challenging for him.

He grew up with the mindset that honesty is a vulnerability.

And he would never want to lie to you.

He began with statements (that wasn't even a compliment lol but he tried)

"Your shoes are navy." "You got an Outstanding for that Potion's essay." "Your hair changes colour in the sunlight."

When he couldn't bring himself to say he liked the colours of your shoes and hair, or that he was impressed by your grades.

Little by little, he braved himself.

"I like your hairstyle." "You should be proud of yourself for that charmwork."

He's still working on it.

But, you're noticing he's grown comfortable with showing unvoiced compliments

"Did you change your perfume?"

As he pulls you onto his lap at the breakfast table.

You tell him you got a new one at Hogsmeade, noticing how he buried his face into your neck.

When you tell him you need to get to class,

His grip around your waist only tightens,

"Five more minutes,"

his voice muffled against your neck tickling you.

It won't be long before he can voice what he feels - what he's always felt.

-----

At one point, Tom began calling you 'his angel'

To him, you truly are the last grip he has on this world before he descends into chaos and unhinged rage

He is extremely protective of you.

You are his escapism, so he is determined to keep any darkness away from you.

That means keeping you safe, as well as keeping you away from any discussions of dark magic as well as some of his friends.

-----

Tom will regularly fight with your cat for your attention.

"No, you had her last night!"

As Tom glares at your cat.

Your cat knows how to annoy Tom as well.

Like, jumping onto your lap minutes before you leave for a date.

Tom will sulk in the corner but patiently wait until you are done petting him.

One day, you found him having a heart-to-heart with your cat.

"Look, I adore her. And I am not leaving her as much as you hate me. So we've got to find a way to work together."

"We both care for her, yes?"

Your cat meows, as if in agreement.

Tom shows a hint of endearment towards the cat at the possibility of their conflict coming to an end.

He approaches your cat for the first time, before he jumps back at a violent hiss.

"Merlin, I get it," he grumbled before moving to his usual corner of the room.

-----

People would find you two visiting Hogsmeade, regularly sampling the newest additions to the craft store.

Tom would stand back a bit in these stores.

Happy to learn different crafts if you were to teach him,

But he's more content to see you happy.

His eyes soften every time you smile up at him excitedly.

He would hold your hand in his coat/robe pocket

And walk with the proudest smile throughout the school and the village.

After all, how did such an unfortunate orphaned boy get to be with an embodiment of sunshine?

A/N: Oof. Sorry it got so long, you two were just so cute, I kept coming up with more to write. I hope you enjoyed it, and please lmk if there are any parts you want to be changed! (Whether it be your characterisation, or how you prefer Tom to act.)

BRO HEAR ME AOUT

After taking a short nap of almost 15 hours, I came up with an idea that is material for a fanfic scenario.

🥀Cielizzy hanahaki scenary 🥀

Lizzy who, faced with Ciel's rejections and indifference, begins to feel hurt and confused, beginning to question if she is more of a nuisance to Ciel than his beloved fiancée. And taking into account the revelation of her discovering the truth of Ciel who blatantly lied to her all this time. She realizes that Ciel does not love her and was nothing more than a fool in his eyes. (whether supernatural Magic or whatever) develops hanahaki disease, slowly getting sick, extinguishing Lizzy's happiness and sweetness

Ciel who always knew that Lizzy loves her brother and not him, Ciel who thinks that by revealing the truth Elizabeth will hate him. Ciel who, seeing that his lie was discovered, was heartbroken to see that his fear came true. Elizabeth chose to be with her brother and not HIM. Ciel who now knows that Lizzy is on her brother's side as she always should have been.

Ciel who somehow also develops hanahaki disease, Ciel who, although he was stubborn and a little stoic, still had that happy and loving side for his loved ones (thanks to Liz) Now with the illness he became more bitter and cynical, rarely showing himself to smile or be happy. Ciel who has already lost the small trace of light and happiness in his wounded heart

In this scenario, the disease does not kill them, it is just a painful ailment that always hurts the heart of the other. Both who always cough up small flowers of Myosotis when longing for each other's presence.

Both now think it was never meant to be💔🥀

(If no Cielizzy fan makes a fanfic about this then I will feel the need to try it because this idea is too good

oooh~✨ the hanahaki disease, i always liked that trope. and the forget-me-nots! is it because they don't want to forget their feelings for each other, or is it because they always want to be remembered by that person? I also like the idea of clovers since it's so symbolic of their childhood.

ohmygosh yeah, i always seen ciel and lizzy's feelings as always mutually unrequited, platonic or not. they care so much about each other, but never on the same wavelength. their self image is dependent on impressing each other, yet the two are so avoidant in confronting their feelings. theyre so pensive, so insecure whether their feelings are unrequited, that they end up believing it anyway.

and i like how you captured how they feel currently in the manga! ignoring their feelings as it chokes them, pretending they dont miss each other terribly. the story repeats over again that a narrative of love wont be fulfilled, but there's always this persisting, bittersweet connection between ciel and lizzy that they can't forget.

I don't know much about fan fiction, since im not really into it, but this was nice to read! You should definitely write it yourself! it's always fun creating for your interests, and if you think its a great idea, then go for it! and im sure any fans who see it will be excited for a new fanfic to read (*^ ^*)

[bruisedboys]

hi lovely mal! may i humbly request number 38 from list two for knives out? sender joins receiver in the shower with stevie <3 i feel like you’d make it so wonderfully, sickeningly sweet!

ohmygosh I’m so sorry this took me so long to answer babe!!! I kinda had a total brain blank for writing steve it just was not coming to me like I wanted it to. anyways here’s this

summary: steve joins you in the shower. 16+ for non-sexual nudity and suggestive themes (?)

implied fem!reader 0.5k words

Steve wakes up from his after-work nap and you’re missing in the space on the bed next to him. Eventually he wakes himself up enough to hear the shower running. He rolls out of bed and trudges across the hall to the bathroom. You’ve left the door open a smidge but he knocks anyway.

“Y/N?”

He hears the shower door being opened and then your voice. “Is that you, Steve? Come in, baby.”

Steve obeys. It’s hard not to. He pushes open the door and is met with a cloud of steam and a rush of sweet smells. The shower door is all clogged up so he only sees the outline of your figure but it makes his heart stutter anyway. You’ve pushed open the door a little and you’re sticking your head out.

“Steve,” you say, beaming. Your wet hair dripping over your face. “Hi, honey. Good sleep?”

Steve blinks. He can’t figure out if he’s woozy because he’s just woken up, or because you’re smiling at him like that. Most likely it’s the latter.

“Y-yeah, it was good,” he stutters, breathless and lovesick as ever.

“Did you want to come in?” You ask softly, your smile sweet as honey. “Plenty of room in here, if you want to.”

Steve nods so fast he almost snaps his neck. He’d be embarrassed but he’s too excited to join you in the shower. Too lovesick from your pretty smile and your bare shoulders peeking out from the shower door.

“Okay,” you beam. “Come on in when you’re ready.”

You shut the shower door and Steve feels like he can breathe again. He strips and makes quick work of it, chucking his work clothes in the hamper on top of yours before padding across the bathroom to the shower. Up close he can see your body even clearer. The dip of your waist. The curve of your hip. Your chest. He can’t imagine how his brain will short circuit when he actually manages to open the door.

“Come in, Stevie,” you call from behind the door. Obviously you’ve seen him standing there, and you’re waiting on him, and Steve’s being a total wuss.

He opens the door and there you are. In all your glory. Completely bare, your body dripping with soapy bubbles and hot water. Steve has to remind himself to breathe. Of course he’s seen you naked before. Plenty of times. It’s just— you’re so—

“You’re beautiful,” he blurts, forgetting to hold his tongue.

You giggle, surprised, and shift on your feet. “What?”

Steve lifts his eyes from where he’d been staring at your chest. Meets your eyes and swallows. “You’re beautiful,” he says again.

“Oh.” You laugh, shocked and a bit lovesick. Not nowhere as much as Steve. But pretty close. “Thanks, Steve,” you say sheepishly. “Now come on, you’re letting all the steam out.”

You grab his wrist with damp fingers and pull him in, reaching around him to shut the door. In the small space your bodies are close. So close your hip grazes Steve’s stomach. The hot water sprays over him and he’s so busy feeling all the points of contact between you and him that he barely feels it.

“Hot enough?” You ask, oblivious to his distraction.

“Yeah,” Steve says, breathless. “Perfect.”

“Good.” Your hands find his waist and you manoeuvre him until he’s directly under the spray. Steve’s stomach does a triple backflip at your touching, his heart pounding so hard he’s sure you can hear it.

He watches get on your tiptoes to grab your conditioner from the caddy, your pretty back to him. His eyes roam over the slip of your shoulders and then your spine. His gaze is lower than appropriate when you hold the bottle over your shoulder and glance back at him. His eyes snap to yours.

“Will you do my conditioner for me?” You ask.

Steve looks at you. Your beautiful body and your shiny hair and your bright smile. How could he ever say no to that?

(i don't usually rec things, or make rec lists, but the occasion has presented itself so here's a short little list of wolfstar recs. some from authors i know and love and trust, and some from strangers who I've never met but love anyway:

edit: i got to the end of the post, and decided to call this my beach read collection of wolfstar fics because they're all just...delightful to read. some angst, but otherwise. beach reads!)

-i'm not going to tag them, because every time i make a rec list these two are on it, and i'm sure they're tired of me being a banshee about their works but. here is a short list of some of my recent reads by aerid0nis and dykesiriusblack (@ steelycunt and @ dykefever on tumblr respectively

by aerid0nis and it only felt good while moving (written for their RS Candy Hearts and its SO CUTE) station to station : i read this one not too long ago after conjuring my courage because ridi's writing does things to me and ohmygosh was it lovely and fucking worth the fucking wait. there is angst and there is pining and there is so much love standing, by the wall honestly, just read it. by dykesiriusblack the shape and sound of god: a wolfstar fleabag au. i'm obsessed with the way this is written. lover, you should come over: look, the boys are messy in this and its beautiful.

Fearless Liabilities by @femme--de--lettres: a wolfstar summer camp AU. I admittedly have not yet finished this one, but I have read enough to comfortably rec it. andies writing never fails to make me laugh-- like audibly out loud. multiple times. i don't know anyone who is better at illustrating absolute shenanigans as well as andie can and this story is SO FREAKIN' CUTE. it has romance. it has camp. it has complicated families and friendships and. yah.

Only Fools are Satisfied by grumposaur (aka tumblr user @pancakehouse). AGAIN. I admittedly haven't finished this yet, but i'm going to rec it because sports AU girlies rise up and-- YES. this is a wolfstar tennis AU. Do i know anything about tennis? No. Am I hooked? yes. I am in love with sirius as we all should be, and it is so fun. (also, i can't explain it, but tumblr user pancakehouse, there is something...so like...nonchalant and casual about the way you write? effortless, every sentence and i'm enjoying every bit of it).

Just what the doctor ordered by wrappedup: i feel like everyone and their dog recs this one (pun intended) but rightfully so. beware tall remus, but the banter and pacing in this is so good.

Hard to Find by accioromulus. this one is short, easy breezy read. the dialogue is so fun and quick and its just...simple and cute. Muggle Roadtrip AU.

[rassicas]

Ohmygosh thank you for such a thorough answer! I loved reading that! First of all I want to thank you for all the amazing stuff you do and generally remind you that you are awesome. Secondly, a few follow-up questions because some things you mentioned particularly intrigued me:

1. What exactly are the problem with “what if lil judd?” The Judds are some of the most central figures in inkfish society so I imagine it’s quite possible they’d have enough weight to throw around to establish a small, shady business on the downlow. I’m sure that there are several problems, I just can’t think of any at present.

2. What do you mean by “though the english localization foolishly carried that motive into the finale of his story when it didn't make sense to do so?” I confess I’m probably just parsing that paragraph wrong, but wasn’t “that motive” his original mammalization plan? He was never MOTIVATED by profit, right? I don’t remember him mentioning profit motives in ROTM.

3. I’m really intrigued by this “O.R.C.A secretly working against Grizz” idea, and agree that ROTM was… weird and doesn’t really make sense taken at face value. Can you elaborate?

sure they'd have the power in the inkling world, what bugs me is the timeline for lil judd. by grizzco's reveal in april 2017, it seemed it was a business that was already well established in the inkling world. salmon roe/power eggs have been stated to be an important energy source, egg collection sites were in place, the grizzco building was there, and it already had a training video that looked like it was filmed like 30 years ago. lil judd was first revealed in. late 2016 i think? he was JUST born months prior. and grizz's plan was certainly in motion for a good long time before he even started the business. for the sake of the timeline itd make more sense to me that judd, not lil judd, was who grizz got in contact with... and maybe lied about his motives in the process since something like 'woah judd is evil all along!!' and not just Neutral feels pretty out of character imo. dont get me started on how grizz's entire motivations were based on him not seeing a single other mammal and him feeling isolated from that, and then the fact there are 2 other sapient mammals surviving on earth is conveniently left out. splatoon team either purposely obfuscating something there, or if not then that seems like a weird shitty writing decision

2. on top of the plethora of added-in business puns, doesnt get more blatant than this:

again, JP version makes no mention of profits and grizz's tone is more serious over all. 3. im gonna plug @ardnin's video because he explains this idea quite well!

[skinandscales-if]

Hello ! I hope you are well !

I just read your demo (yesterday if I'm being honest, but hey, sleep is nice), and. I'm blown away. The world ? The lore ? The characters ? Heck yeah the brainrot is so real they now all live rent free in my mind.

So I just wanted to say, thank you so much for this if ! It's so great, I looked though all the asks and I love it even more, really it's all incredible, and I felt for MC so much everytime it was mentioned that all of chapter 1 happened in. One day. I feel so bad for them, but at the same time this situation is so much of a shit show (affectionate) that in a way it's almost funny. I love it. Atlas was so frustrating but at the same time endearing. Reese is like. I adore this character.

So yeah, that was a message to share some love about your story, because you deserve it so so much ! I hope you have a nice day, or evening, or night !

😭 ohmygosh please you’re too kind! This is such a lovely message- I’m so glad you enjoyed the story and all there is to offer so far! Genuinely, hearing about people’s experiences and feelings while playing the game is super helpful and I’m very glad your MC came off as sympathetic and you’re interested to see where the characters and story goes! Someone getting brainrot is honestly the biggest compliment haha

It means the absolute world to me that you took the time to write this, it always motivates me to keep going! <3 I hope you also have a wonderful day/evening/night and thanks again! Here’s to more content and good vibes to come!

[dancingisdangerouss]

Hey love! After a few weeks being ill and stuck at home, i’ve just now finished all your works for The Black Phone (yay hyperfixation) and oh my gooood you’re such a good writer! Your stories are so entertaining and they keep me at the edge of my seat the entire time. I’m not that good with the whole writing thing myself, but my standards in fanfiction are extremely high for some reason, which makes it hard to find fanfics i enjoy. No disrespect to any fanfic writers, of course, i’m just picky. However, stumbling across your ao3 account and reading the first few sentences was lowkey like standing at the gates of heaven. It was a relief, truly. Love me some good writing and plot, which you always provide.

Thank you so much for doing what you do, and props to you for handling massive amounts of bullshit (saw the plagiarizing thing, not quite sure what happened but i totally understand how it sucks) This was supposed to be my little note of appreciation but i feel like it became sort of a mess. Anyway, hope you’re doing good!! Sending virtual hugs 🧡🧡

AAAAAHHHHH ohmygosh thank you so much, this made my week 🥺🥺 This is so ridiculously sweet omfg 💚💚

I’m in the midst of trying to transition hopefully into another job where I’ll be less stressed all the time, so here’s hoping I get the new job! I’ve been mentally on the verge of snapping from stress, so it’s been hard. But I’m seeking other employment elsewhere, and I’ve started up working on Non Compos Mentis again! ☺️

Agh yeah, I’ve dealt with a lot of hate on this account from the very beginning, and I remember it got to absurd levels of stupidity 🤦‍♀️ Thankfully most of that cleared up, but yeah with the other situation, basically I had a fan of my work who reached out saying I inspired her to write her own, and I was on good terms with her for a while until I realized she was basically copying my story with minor changes and using my style of writing, and it became this whole mess where I felt let down by the BP community.

Your “sort of a mess post” means the world to me 💚

[excited-insomniac]

Ok so i have no clue what im doing, but, i have a fic recommondation. Dont feel at all pressured to do this i just have been trying to find a this fic and cant, and i just LOVE your writing so much, but if its not your style i understand, trying never hurts tho so here goes.

What if uther as per usual is just an asshole and arthur feels absolutely terrible abt himself, and maybe merlin makes a joke and sets arthur off into like a state of panic or uther just took it too far and arthur breaks down, he tells merlin why he feels so bad so merlin absolutely gets pissed off at uther and comforts arthur and then arthur starts to feel confident being himself with his body type and preferences.

Okay so i know that was a lot, but i cant write to save my life and your one of my fav authors on Ao3. I totally understand if you have other fics, but i thought it was cute. Anyway, dont mind me ranting. You deserve so much love lol, have a good day ❤️

Aahhh ohmygosh what a lovely thing to say, thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

As for the fic suggestion, what if I were to tell you that you ticked almost every box for the start of the last chapter of my fic The Merlin Club? 👀 idk if you like pwp, but the plan is to start off with some good old emotional hurt/comfort after Uther chews Arthur out for something.

Thank you so much again!! I hope you have a great day!

[sailoryooons]

Hi Hali!

Just stopping in to say hi and I hope your life is finding a good balance again! 💜

I believe mental health always comes first so I hope you’ve had time to recover from switching jobs and moving states (sad we don’t live in the same state anymore - not that it changes anything 🤣)

I will always be your cheerleader for any writing you do in the future (and even if you somehow never do any more). I have always loved your writing style so so much. Specifically how you write Yoongi.

My *FAVORITE* thing to do is re-read your fics. I wish there was a way to “like” them again each time I read so you could see how many times I’ve re-read your work. Just to show you how much they all mean to me.

Sending virtual hugs and fist bumps your way!!

Ohmygosh hiiiii Rocky! I am doing okay - slowly trying to find balance as I adjust to a new job and living in a new city!!

I have... sort of started to find balance? I think it'll be a little easier when my season at work finally comes to an end and I have a little bit of time to catch my breath during the down period! I have in fact forsaken FL once more I am so sorry lmao.

UGH thank you so much - there is definitely writing in the future, slowly but surely. I was talking about writing at lunch with a friend today and just needing to ground myself back in it - the last year was so deeply challenging for me that I almost feel like I divorced myself from writing to protect myself from feeling overwhelmed.

Just knowing that you like to re-read my stuff to pass time and to relive them again actually makes me want to WEEP!!!!!! WEEP! Sometimes I get curious and re-read my stuff (I honestly mentally divorce everything I post because I have terrible posting anxiety) and totally forget sooo much that I have done and it's always a nice little surprise.

Thank you sooo much for all the kind words - you mean the world to me and this made my night even better and I appreciate you SO much!

[rirismommyspace]

Riri!! It’s so nice to see you again!! :D

The year is going well for me so far! I’m taking a writing class that’s a bit stressful, but thankfully it will be ending soon. I’m also very proud of myself because I started up my Duolingo Japanese lessons again. I haven’t missed a lesson since I started! (I believe my count is 67 days-)

At the beginning of this month, I started working on an amigurumi doll of one of my comfort characters. I think she’ll be done by the end of the month. I can’t wait for her to be finished!

Right now I’m starting up one of my (many) sideblogs. I was about to make a post when I saw you answering asks!

As far as your blog goes, I would enjoy if you keep it “personal.” I like how it’s a sort of hangout space where we can all talk with each other. (Don’t feel pressured to post by the way! Your health is much more important).

Anyways, I hope you have a lovely rest of your day!

˚₊✩‧₊ it's been a long time since these asks you've sent but I really really really hope you know how much I appreciate you, Bunny !!! You're always the absolute Sweetest ever and I'm always so happy when I see you in my notifs (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡ and ohmygosh !! good job with the Duolingo lessons !! You have some real dedication and that's so impressive!!!

[byhees]

i'm pretty sure that you would learn from things as we are not 70 year old grandmas, i'm glad my message made you feel really better (^///^) nah~ vi my writing might be average but not as great as your :]

and if you ever feel that your writing is not better, think of your writing when you started this hobby, maybe you weren't sure how to write or form good and dreamy sentences and see yourself now — being creative with your works and doing all great + improving you writing too <3

i'm totally happy too that i made someone day today and i feel really great, hehe. it's okay to feel like that vi, but i'm telling this once again, we are still young and there is still so much to learn 😤 and if i see you degrading yourself, i'll definitely kick your ass virtually （︶^︶）

and i'd love to be anon too ^^ i'm confused, maybe i'll be an emoji. i'll take this 🌼 emoji, it's calming and i hope it does to you too. also, i'm thinking of starting a writing account this month ending, but i still haven't written anything and it's ages since i opened my docs to write lmfao.

anyways, i totally wish you would improve and of course, let's get this together (*^▽^*) and be good friends too !! also can i know your birthday and timezone??

your message helped me so so much <3 again, thank you! ++ and i don’t believe it, i’m sure you’re a writing prodigy hiding behind the screen…

awhh, this is really good advice ^^ i really should tune back to vi from 1.5 months ago .0. i remember being so confused on how to format images back then HAHAH but anyways, thank you for putting my progress in perspective!

yep, we are still young, with a long way ahead^^ so let’s continue persevering and striving for improvement… and, yes! definitely going to view things more positively, so hopefully won’t get that kick? ( ˃̣̣̣̣o˂̣̣̣̣ )

and that’s so cute! i love the meaning of the emoji <3 well then, hi 🌼 anon :)) and ohmygosh, go for it! my little journey’s been really fun so far, and there are so many amazing people on enhablr ^^ definitely no regrets about joining

let’s definitely be good friends <3 oh and my birthday’s october 6, so i’m a libra :) and i’m not super knowledgeable of this whole timezone thing (they suck though!!so confusing..), but i think its GMT+8? it’s 7:50 pm right now, so it should be right?

oh, and back to you ^^ what’s your birthday and timezone?

[the-doomed-witch]

7h30?? I sent this.. like.. 01h30 for you or something :o. I think. I don't know. Hahaha

So, maybe I was a little grogue from my migraine pill when I wrote 🐰🐈, it was definitely between allucination and just a random pair. 😬

I think normal people write like you do 😅. I write stories that I have been daydreaming for a few days and need to take it out of my brain before I lose my mind due to overfixation - therapist's suggestion. I don't write just because is a good plot.

When I have this good ideas, I usually sent a anon ask for some real writer I like :x. Like I did you 🤭.

Yeah! I am just waiting for some opportunities at work. I think next year I am gonna be able to do it: a teacher is moving out of the city, so there is a spot left and I am the first one in the line up.. (I might have a few witchcraft candles light for it)🤭

Butterflies kisses are like... the epitome of Fluff. I am very much a sucker for it and actively ask my special someone for it without shame 😌

Let's get a smutty anatomical prompt this time, tho.... uhmm 🤔 *pretends to be thinking*

This one is a little bigger. Please Google " anterior superior iliac spine surface anatomy" and now let's place a hickey 1 cm inwards ***teaser heaven***

. . 🪶 (Fanning herself two dots)

(This one I sent 7h51 pm for you)

all i know is india is 8.5 hours ahead of brazil😭

PLEASE I’M STILL WHEEZING 😭😭 bunny and french cat sounds legit cute tho

that’s very interesting. i daydream a lot but it’s too crazy and unhinged and dirty to be written and read by lots of people on a platform lmao 😭🫣 well honestly speaking your ideas are really good, plus there’s the anatomical knowledge as an advantage for you 😙

GOOD LUCK ON GETTING THE JOB! i hope you get it *lights up a few more witchcraft candles* 🖤🖤

oooooo that’s so cute 🥺😩 for me the most extreme fluffy thing someone could do for me would be hands on my cheeks or cheek kisses. i love giving them too! 🥺🥺🥺 cries in touch starved and awfully single

okay i just googled that and ohmygosh anon don’t do this to me rn. screaming crying punching the walls laying down on the floor pulling my hair etc 😭😭 i’m a little insecure when it comes to my thighs but to have someone who makes me feel comfortable about them and- i need to stop hdjgshgsj

that’s very close !!!! it was sent at about 7:21PM (and i KNOW i’m answering 24h later but i’ll elaborate in a minute)

so this is what happens :

i see your ask early in the morning (no matter when somebody sends it, i usually see my inbox like a newsletter😭) by early morning i mean as early as 6:30AM.

i sit down to answer it at about 10:30AM (because i’m busy till like 10:00AM) and as soon as i do so, somehow my parents manage to call me for some work.

i keep the half answered ask as a draft and it never crosses my mind till the evening or the next morning (because ✨ADHD✨)

so that’s that. *in tony stark’s voice* it’s the goddamn mental illness again!

**********

The familiar sound of a FaceTime call connecting rang in Y/n's ears and she held her phone up to her face. "Hi, Karl," she sighed.

"Y/N!!" he said with a cackle. "ARE YOU READY FOR YOUR DATE?!"

"Shut up, I'm doing this for you."

"I already gave you the tour though so really you could back out. You're choosing to stay." His voice was teasing and giddy. "Why's that, hmm?"

Heat rose instantly to Y/n's face. "Because I'm a woman of my word?"

"OkaAaAyy," he sang. "Or because you liiiiikeee himmm."

"Shhhut up, Karl. No, I don't."

"Suuuure."

"Is this why you called me?"

He giggled. "Yeah, but—"

Y/n disconnected the call and set her phone down with a small laugh and a shake of her head.

With her stream started and her chat greeted, the donation limit raised to $100 (both because she didn't want to be flooded with questions on the date and because she didn't want people to donate their hard-earned money), Y/n logged onto Dream's SMP and found the voice call Dream was in, George's name right under his.

After she clicked it to join, a small gasp emitted from her headphones before she heard Dream mutter something. "Get out, get out, leave."

George's voice was normal. "But I wanna—"

"GEORGE!" Dream yelled, making Y/n giggle.

"Fine!" George yelled back. "Have fun you two," he sang like Karl did before a sound from Discord told them that he left.

It was silent for a second before, "Hi."

"Hi." She giggled. "What was that about?"

"Oh, nothing, nothing. Just some last minute, uh, setting up."

She hummed, amused at the sound of his frantic voice.

"So, um... are you ready for our date?"

"I don't even know where you are. I'm still in my house."

"Knock, knock," he said with a laugh. Y/n turned to see green peeking through the cutouts on her oak door and she laughed.

She ran to the door and opened it for him, revealing Dream in a slightly altered version of his Minecraft skin. He looked the same, except the white blob appeared to be wearing a necktie of some sort. "You look ridiculous," she admitted with a smile. "Wait, is this a fancy date? Should I change my skin?"

"It's not fancy, I just wanted to look my best for the prettiest girl in the world."

"Ohmygosh," she muttered to herself, hoping that writing off his charming words and actions as annoying would make her face not heat up as much. So far, it hadn't worked. Two minutes in and she was already blushing like a schoolgirl whose crush asked her to play tag at recess. "So, I'm not underdressed?"

"No, you're always perfect."

She didn't comment, opting for an eye-roll instead. Truthfully, she wanted to flirt back with him, try to make his heart beat fast like hers already was, but she was worried her words wouldn't come off joking and that the true intention would be obvious, that he'd be able to breeze right past the jovial tone and hear the sincerity in her words. Wait, true intention? What was her true intention? Her true intention should obviously be to just joke around and have some fun, but deep down she knew the motivation for teasing him came from somewhere different, somewhere more meaningful.

She wanted to tease him because she wanted to be the one to make him blush, to make him trip over his words and not know what to do with his hands.

Why? Well, she was still figuring that out.

"If you're ready, follow me, ma'am."

"Where are you taking me?" she asked as she followed his character down prime path.

"Hmmm..." he mused. "A secret, obviously."

"Obviously," she scoffed. She noticed that he was several blocks ahead of her and she smiled to herself. "Hey, Dream?"

"Hm?" he asked, spinning to face her as he ran backward.

"I don't know how many dates you've been on, but usually people walk together. You know, gives them an excuse to maybe hold hands or at least enjoy each other's company?" She made sure her voice had just the right balance of teasing and seriousness, curious as to how he would respond.

"I, uh... oh."

"Unless you want me to just meet you there. I mean, you're practically running away from me."

"I'm just excited!" he excused, stopping briefly so she could catch up with him.

"But look at how many beautiful things there around us to look at while we get to where we're going!" she told him. "Well, maybe not that," she said with a laugh as she punched her fist towards Tommy's dirt house. "But other things."

Dream laughed and continued to walk next to her like she requested, pausing if he ever got too far ahead. "How can I look at all those when the most beautiful thing is walking right next to me?"

She's never rolled her eyes so hard in her life. "Shut up," she mumbled as she punched him.

"OW! BUG!"

"That was supposed to be a pat on the arm but Minecraft only has one level of hitting and it's a punch. Sorry."

Dream wheezed briefly before containing his laughter. "This way," he instructed, getting off the path and starting into the woods.

"Oh, really you're trying to kill me. That's why you didn't want me to wear anything nice. Didn't want me to ruin any of my fancy stuff."

"Foiled my plans," he joked lightly. "Okay but really, um, I was thinking—well, so you already have a house but I was thinking we could build one together. Or build something, I don't know. But you're really good at building and I know you really enjoy it so I thought maybe you could show—like, teach me and then later I'll teach you something and then we can have a little picnic dinner."

Y/n smiled at her nervousness. "Hey, that actually sounds really fun!"

"What? What do you mean actually?" He laughed. "What, did you expect me to plan something boring?"

She laughed over his dramatic pouting. "No, but I mean, I didn't know what to expect," she said shyly. "I do have to say, though, I'm not sure what you plan on teaching me. I'm pretty much a master at all possible Minecraft skills, so..."

"Oh, really?" he taunted. "Everything?"

"Mhm," she hummed, her confidence wavering at his smooth voice.

"We'll see about that..."

"Unless you mean you're gonna teach me how to code Minecraft. That's a Minecraft skill I will admit I know nothing about."

"No, no, nothing like that," he said with a laugh.

"Good, save the programming talk for later."

"For laaater, hmmm?" he sang flirtatiously.

"Oh my gosh," she said through a laugh. "You would think that's what I meant."

"Hey, you're the one that said you think it's cute when I talk about coding. Maybe you're into that."

"I was saying it's sweet hearing you talk about stuff you like, you nerd. Why did you immediately think—what, is your idea of dirty talk talking about... like... computer viruses?"

"WhAT?"

"Hey girl, lemme clean out your motherboard," she mocked in a deep voice. "You overclock my processor. Lemme program your, uh—uh...hAHA, nevermind, ew, no."

"BUG?! WHAAAT? What is wrong with you?" His gasps for breath between wheezes made her laugh with him. "Don't ever talk like that again, pleASE."

"I won't, I won't, I'm sorry. Oh my gosh."

"Is that your idea of flirting? You are bad!"

"No, no, no!" She laughed. "I was making fun of you. No, I'm actually really good."

She couldn't stop giggling to herself for a few minutes, embarrassed but also proud of the reaction she got from Dream. She loved hearing him laugh as if he would never stop, it made her heart so happy to hear, especially when she was the one who caused it.

Though she feared her horrible pickup lines, if you could even call them that, were already clipped, ready to be used against her for the rest of her life. Worth it. Probably.

They approached a cleared-out area in the woods and Dream stopped and turned to Y/n. "So, we're here. What should we build?"

"Oh, so now I have to plan? Wow, you are so underprepared," she joked.

"What, no! I originally... I wanted to build a, like, a house together because I didn't— I forgot you made your—your house already and—but since you already have one—"

"We can still build a house," she interrupted with a soft voice. Him fumbling over his words was very endearing but also very confusing. How serious was he taking this bit? Or was he... actually nervous? She was actually nervous but she had reasons to be: a huge live audience to entertain and not ignore, and the weird staticky, itchy feeling in her tummy every time Dream spoke to her. Both valid reasons to be nervous. What was his excuse?

"Really? You wanna build a home together?"

Heat rose to her cheeks at his wording and she hummed. "Mhm. You can be my secret lover I hide in my vacation home. Like a second life kinda deal."

He scoffed. "Oh, now I'm just your side piece, Bug?"

"Nah, you're my main bitch, baby. I just wanna hide you away to keep you for myself because I'm selfish."

There was silence on his end for a few moments, making Y/n's face practically catch fire as she thought about her words. Why did she say that?? How can he flirt all the time but as soon as she says something: dead silence.

"Well.... shhhhhit," he finally mumbled definitively.

"You wanted me to flirt with you, Dream. You literally asked me too!" She laughed, trying to cover up her embarrassment. It had been less than 20 minutes and she already made a fool of herself.

"I did, I did, I just—wow. Come on, that was... I didn't expect you to go from never flirting to calling me baby!"

"Too much?" she bit her lip as she waited for him to explain if it was a good or bad thing.

He paused again. "....no."

She laughed loudly, pulling her hoodie collar up to her face in an attempt to rid herself of the giddiness and heat on her face. Like anyone could see anyway.

"So, a house?"

"A house."

"What kind of house do you think we should build together, Dream?"

"Maybe...." he thought as he ran around the area. "Maybe, like, a log cabin? Since we're in a forest. It's fitting..."

"Very true, very true..." she thought. "I was thinking a castle was more suited for you, king, but a cabin works too."

"Bug!" he yelled, laughter bubbling up in his voice. "What is wrong with you?"

"What?" she said defensively, giggling.

"You're a handful today," he groaned under his breath and she smiled. Though his words said one thing, Y/n could tell he was enjoying her energy.

"So, a dinky, old cabin, or what?"

"Whatever you want to build," he sighed.

"You always this agreeable?"

"Only to you."

"Well, I honestly don't have much practice with building cabins and since I want to show off my skills, I mean, that's the whole point of this, right? For me to impress you with my skills?"

Dream laughed so she continued.

"I think we should build a treehouse."

"A treehouse?"

"Mhm. What do you think? I make a pretty bomb treehouse."

"That sounds awesome!" he agreed. "Oh, and it could go from, like, one tree to another and, like, connect with a bridge! Like, the living room on one and the bedroom on another."

"Yeah, exactly! Okay, it's settled."

"What do we need? What do you want me to do?"

"I'm thinking.... we use cobblestone?"

Dead silent. Literally no noise until a few moments later, ".......Bug. This might be a deal-breaker."

"I'm joooking! You think I'd build something out of cobblestone? Who am I, Tommy? No, what's your favorite wood?"

"Dark oak."

"GOOD. Me too. So.... we need dark oak. Or, wait! Okay, hear me out."

"I'm hearing..." Dream prompted as he pressed A and D on his keyboard back and forth, earning a giggle from Y/n. He character was bouncing left and right is excitement.

"Dark oak planks..." she started.

"Mhm."

"Stone bricks..."

"Go on."

"And green wool for accents."

"Well, now you're just pandering."

"No!" she laughed. "Not, like, lime wool. Green wool. It's close to you but not as... obnoxiously blinding."

"I trust your vision. I'll go get materials."

"Perfect, you're the best, Dweam."

"Yeah, yeah," he grumbled before laughing. "You pick out a tree you think would be best for the main part."

40 minutes later, they were nowhere near being done. Y/n had shown him how to make a good house layout after he placed the floor in the shape of a square. She had yelled at him for it first, of course. They also had the frame of the walls and one bridge but nothing on the other side of said bridge. Not wanting the stream to last six hours since this was only the first part of the date, Y/n made a suggestion.

"What if...."

"What if what?" Dream asked, pausing to look at her character, who had stopped fixing his mistakes. "Did I mess something up?"

"No, I was just thinking. What if we make this the whole house and do a little garden on the other side of the bridge? Or like a little cute thing."

"A little cute thing?" Dream laughed.

"You know, like a thing," she said, knowing she hadn't clarified anything. "I forgot this is only date one, you can't read my mind yet."

"Oh, so there are gonna be future dates? I thought this was just to pay off your debt?"

She paused, playing with her hoodie strings between her left hand. "Well, I guess we'll see."

Dream laughed. "So, what little cute thing did you want to make?"

"We could put a bench facing the sunset and have some potted flowers and hang lanterns and stuff."

"Oh, like a romantic spot?"

"I guess if you wanna think of it like that."

"Sounds cute," he said. "So, we have to change the layout in here then?"

"Nah, I mean, we can just not add a kitchen, we obviously don't need one anyway."

"True. Then all we need is to put our bed down, right?"

"Beds," Y/n corrected.

"Well, when they're together it looks like one big bed."

"Who said we're putting out beds together?"

"Buuuuggg..." he whined. "Come on... lemme put my bed next to yours."

She giggled again. What was with all the giggling, sheesh. "No. There's plenty of space, put it somewhere else." She placed her white bed down in the corner and went across the bridge to bring her idea to life, or, to Minecraft.

It only took about ten minutes and she finished when Dream spoke again. "I think I'm done."

"I am too! Let's take one final look around." She went back inside and immediately noticed his bed right next to hers. She stared at his character and he laughed.

"Whaaat?" he asked shyly and she just sighed, letting it happen. They took a look around and agreed that it was basically the best treehouse in the entire universe, both in Minecraft and real life.

"Bug, you're so good at building," Dream complimented as he ran around the house. "What's your favorite part?"

"Ummm...." She looked around before deciding on the bridge. "I like how you made the bridge. And I like the little touches you added to it. It's nice."

"Thanks! I think the 'little cute thing' you did is the best part."

"Shut up, I can't stand you," she scoffed. "But thanks."

"Hey, Bug?" Dream asked, leading her back into the house. He faced the two beds placed together and she prepared herself for the worst joke of all time. "Is this where all the programming talk happens?"

"I knew it! I knew you were gonna say that! Shut up!" She punched Dream as he laughed loudly and she couldn't stop smiling. "You're such a nerd. You're so annoying."

"OH! I have an idea, wait here."

***

It had been a solid eight and a half minutes of Y/n waiting for Dream and he showed no signs of returning. He was silent too, so she resorted to saying random things to get him to crack.

"When will my husband return from war?" she joked, her voice laced with sadness and longing.

There was a small suppressed laugh from his mic, but still no words.

"Sometimes I think I can still hear him laughing at me."

He must have gotten reeeaaalll close to his mic, because his next words, the first ones he had spoken in almost ten minutes, were whispered but she felt like he was in her ear. "I'll be home soon, baby."

Once again, she was so glad her chat couldn't see her because she literally shivered and her face was so warm she felt like she was glowing.

For the first time all stream, her eyes betrayed her and she looked at her chat as she pulled her hoodie collar up to her face.

user18: BUGSY BEIN REEEAL QUIET

user4: i think i just passed out

user11: wHAT ON EARTH DREAM ADKXKH

user7: BUGSY ON GOD BE REAL WITH US WTF IS GOING ON RN

user2: hey bestie i cant do this rn

user9: they can't talk to each other like that and say they're just friends pleASE

Also for the first time all stream, someone dared to donate at her limit (which, again, was ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS).

karakatara donated $100 I had to donate bc I just HAD to tell you how cute you and dream are! honestly my favorite couple ever and I was just wondering how long you've been dating??? love you and your videos!!!!!

It was $100. She had to answer it. Meaning, she had to use words after Dream said that like that and she wasn't sure that was physically possible right now.

"Aren't you going to answer?" Dream taunted.

"Wha—what, are you—you stream watching, you weirdo?" she forced out. "Why?"

"I wanted to read your chat, they're really funny."

"I haven't been reading it."

"What, why? They've been so funny this whole time."

"I've been too scared to."

"Too scared? Of what?"

Of the jokes that she wanted to be real? Of seeing something so cute only to break her heart when she remembers it's all a joke? Of seeing someone hate her for being so close to Dream? Many things.

"Of seeing something... that boosts your ego."

"What? Oh, come on. Hey, answer the dono. Someone gave you their hard earned money for that."

"Yeah, wait, chat, I had the limit that high so you DON'T donate! Why on earth would you—"

"You're avoiding the question."

"We aren't actually dating! Not actually a couple!" she said with a laugh, though something in her heart was very much against laughing at that fact. "Obviously not."

"Well, it's only the first date, so, we'll see I guess, but..."

"I cannot stand you. Thank you so much for the dono, though, Karakatara. You're insane for... yeah. Thank you so much." She turned her attention back to Dream. "Actually though are you ever coming back?"

"Yeah, what, I'm almost there. I see the you staring out the window. ."

When he got inside, he dropped a blue cornflower for Y/n and stepped back. "Okay, now, give that to me."

She followed, not understanding. "For you, Dream." She dropped the flower.

"Aw, Bug! That's so kind! Aw! Thank you! Here's a flower for you, too!" He dropped her a red poppy and then put two item frames on the wall above their beds. He put the blue cornflower above his bed and she followed by putting the red one above hers. "Now that's my favorite part of the house."

"You didn't want to use the real ones? What, did you lose my flower or something?"

"Hell no!" he defended loudly. "No, I just don't want someone to steal that one. It's in my enderchest for safe-keeping."

He said it so casually like it was no big deal, but her heart soared. She too had his flower in her enderchest.

"This," she said dramatically with a sigh, "is now a treehome."

***

"I already told you I'm the best PVP player out there."

"Bug, honey, I've seen you play Bedwars. You're trash."

"Hey!" Hehe, honey. Shut up brain.

"But that's okay! I'm here to teach you."

Y/n's character stood across a makeshift battlefield from Dream's, an axe in hand and armor that was definitely donated by DreamXD on her body. "This is kinda sexist of you. Assuming I know how to name a cute house but not fight."

"Oh no, that's not—crap. Bug, I'm only basing this off of your streams, which I watch all the time—"

Once again, he said something so casual and yet it still made her heart skip three beats and once again, she grabbed the collar of her hoodie and pulled it up to hide her face. This thing had to be stretched by now from how often it was yanked on in this stream alone.

"—and don't get me wrong, you're great! But you're also good at a lot of stuff and—"

"Dream!" she giggled out. "I'm teasing. I admit you're much better than me."

"I wouldn't say much better but... it's the only thing I could possibly teach you anything about because you're just so good at Minecraft." His tone was sarcastic at this point but she knew he was meaning what he said.

"Whatever. Come on, Dream, show me how it's done."

He actually had a lot of very useful tips that Y/n otherwise would have never thought about. I guess when you tryhard Minecraft, she thought, you learn a thing or two about pvp. It was a complete joke, but she still kept it to herself.

"I could basically beat anyone now," she said confidently.

"Yeah, basically. Except maybe Technoblade."

"Nah, even him."

"Let's see how good you really are. To the death."

"What?" She laughed. "You're gonna try to kill me on our date?"

"Yeah, scared?" Seconds later, a creeper exploded near Dream and he screeched, jumping back. Y/n lost it. She laughed loudly, clutching her stomach.

"Dr-Dream!" She laughed. "What the hell was that?"

"It scared me!" he argued. "Here, I'll protect you," he offered, running past her and killing a skeleton that was shooting towards her.

"I don't need protecting, especially from you! Besides, if you're trying to kill me, you'd let the mobs get me."

"No," he decided. "No one's allowed to kill my Bug."

She was literally going to explode. "Wh—"

"Only I get to."

"Dream!" she scoffed, running to kill the skeleton first. She succeeded and he pouted.

"Hey—I did more damage than you, you just had the final hit."

"Really? Cause to me it looks like I'm your knight in shining armor."

"Nuh-uh," he spat.

"Dream. F5 right now, you're covered in arrows."

There was a pause. "Oh whatever." He hit her once and that's all it took for them to start fighting, throwing jokes and taunts at each other the whole time, eventually resulting in a satisfying win for her.

Dream was slain by Bugsy

"WHAT?! HOW?"

<Tubbo> i thogt you were on a date <Ranboo> well definitley not anymore <Ranboo> is that canon <JackManifoldTV> WOMEN

"What was that about you being better than me?" Y/n teased.

"Oh, come ON! I still had damage from the skeleton, and besides, I taught you everything you know!"

"That just makes you a very good teacher, Dream," she said sincerely and he paused, probably expecting her to insult him instead of compliment him.

"Yeah, suck up now that you've murdered me."

***

They were finally at their final stop, three hours into the stream. Not too bad on time, though this was probably the longest Minecraft date in the history of Minecraft dates. Also the best, but maybe Y/n was biased.

There was a huge tree, obviously built instead of naturally generated, with lanterns hanging down and lighting areas of the dark world around them. Under that was a checkered pattern of carpet, a single chest in the center with a potted plant sitting next to it.

"The carpet is supposed to look like a, uh, what's it called... picnic blanket?" Dream explained as they approached the scene, clearly not happy with how it turned out. "It looks weird. Nothing compared to the treehouse you built."

"We built," she corrected. "And this looks awesome, Dream," Y/n complimented. "It's is also my favorite colors."

"Yeah, I had some help from Karl on that one."

She leaned back in her chair in real life and pressed her hands to her face. Oh, it was so unfair how cute he was when he was shy like this. She glanced at chat, which only made her face go from the temperature of molten lava to basically the sun. She was going to explode.

She hummed, a little giggle coming out as well. "That's cute."

She sat (crouched) on the picnic blanket (piece of carpet) while Dream put a disc in the jukebox off to the side.

"Is that a Tommy disc?" she giggled and Dream laughed.

"No, no, no, don't worry. There shouldn't be any continuations of wars interrupting our date."

"Shouldn't be," she emphasized, noticing someone approaching them from the distance.

Dream was about to speak when Quackity reached them and quickly joined the voice channel.

"Oh no," Dream sighed. "We've come so far."

"AYYEEE WHAT'S GOING ON, MAN?!" Quackity yelled in his Mexican Dream voice, his voice bubbling with laughter. "IS THIS A DATE OR SOMETHING, MAN?"

"Quackity, go AWAY!" Dream ordered, punching the character who had stripped to his underwear. "YOU'RE INDECENT! THERE IS A LADY HERE!"

Y/n laughed, enjoying the scene of fancy Dream hitting naked Quackity away from their picnic dinner.

"I'm your waiter, I'm your waiter!" Quackity said in his normal voice, still laughing. "DREAM! WILL YOU STO— QUIT HITTING ME!"

This had turned chaotic very quickly.

"We don't need a waiter," Dream informed him.

"Then I'm the singing gram you ordered." He started singing a song and Dream groaned. "HEY THERE DELILAH WHAT'S IT LIKE IN NEW YORK CITY—"

"No! You're being a clout chaser, go away!"

"I'm honestly impressed we made it this far without anyone coming into the voice channel," Y/n admitted.

"I paid them," Dream joked.

"You did not!" Karl's voice suddenly came through and Y/n laughed. "We were all just being polite and staying away but we're getting bored! We've been so patient!"

"Yeah, hurry up! We wanna play!!!" Sapnap whined. "Dream, it's not fair for you to steal Bugsy from us for so long."

"Oh my gosh!" she exclaimed with a laugh as Dream laughed along.

"Just ten minutes! Ten more minutes!" Dream bargained but none of them would have it. "Just so I can say goodbye!"

"No!" George insisted. "Right now!"

"Look, wait, wait, hold on—"

<Sapnap joined the game> <GeorgeNotFound joined the game> <KarlJacobs joined the game>

"—hold ON!" Dream begged, watching as the three boys ran and joined Quackity by the picnic blanket.

Y/n could not stop laughing at all the avatars around them. The date had been so peaceful and cute but all good things must come to a chaotic end.

"Wait, come on, Karl, Karl, Karl," Dream said quickly. "Come here. Bug, just a sec, please. Stay right there."

"Okay," she agreed, curious to see his plan.

Karl followed him and of course Sapnap couldn't help but also join them.

"Okay," Dream whispered loudly, clearly wanting everyone to hear his offer. He crouched and the other two copied. "Just give me ten minutes—"

"Ten?" Sapnap asked loudly.

"Shhh!!! Yes, ten minutes, to say goodbye and, you know, end the date."

There was a long, thick pause. "What exactly are your intentions with Bugsy Games," Karl asked seriously, matching Dream's whisper.

"Well, I wanna make sure she gets home safe, you know, so I'm gonna drop her off and, I don't know, see if maybe.... maybe she'll give me a hug?"

Karl and Sapnap both gasped dramatically and Y/n giggled, sparing a glance at her chat who were all freaking out.

"What the hell?" Quackity said while laughing. He and George were still standing near Y/n so they were just watching the goons with her.

"Bugsy is not that kind of girl!" Sapnap protested. "You think she's just gonna give you a hug?"

"Sapnap! Do you not know how to whisper???"

George let a loud laugh slip before slapping his hand over his mouth, which his mic picked up.

"Okay, Dream, wait, so you're gonna try to... hug her?" Karl clarified. "She won't even let me hug her. Good luck."

"Well, I'm not going to force her into anything but, I don't know, she said something about holding my hand earlier so I just thought maybe there's a possibility—"

"WHAT?" Karl yelled before going back to the whisper. "Okay, okay, don't panic, but that's huge. Dadnap, a word?"

He and Sapnap broke off from Dream and formed their own huddle, except their whispers were incoherent mumblings that weren't even English.

"Oh my gosh," Y/n groaned loudly, an unmistakable laugh behind her words.

"Okay," Sapnap said, rejoining Dream. "We'll give you five minutes but if you take any longer, we're barging in and killing you."

"Yes, sir!" Dream said. "Thank you, sirs."

"Mhm. Okay, break!"

They all uncrouched in sync before Dream ran back to Y/n.

"How did it go?" she asked as if she didn't hear the entire conversation.

"Bad news," he started. "Your dad's want you home."

"Shame, I was quite enjoying my time."

Dream slowly turned towards the boys as if to glare at them for ending the date before turning back to her. "Then, maybe, I don't know, we could do this again sometime?"

"I.... think I'd like that," she said slowly, trying to tease him.

He giggled and told her he was going to drop her off at her house, even though when the date was over, they were all probably gonna mess around together anyway so there was no point in them leaving the group. But it was the thought that counted.

He ended up taking her back to the treehouse, which warmed her heart. She also noticed when they faced each other at front of the door, she could see the four other boys watching them.

"Goodnight, my sweet Bug," he said poshly.

"Goodnight, Dream." He turned away but she stopped him. "Wait!" She moved to his side and made a loud, MUAH, sound before stepping back in front of him. "A kiss on the cheek," she clarified, not wanting him to think she gave him a real kiss.

"Cute," he said under his breath, almost like he didn't mean to say it out loud. "Night night." He turned away and ran down to the others, screaming the whole way. "GUYS, DID YOU SEE THAT? BUG GAVE ME A KISS ON THE CHEEK!! OMG DID YOU SEE, DID YOU SEE?"

Chat was gonna have a field day with that. Actually, with a lot of things that had happened. Oh, she could see the clips and edits now.... oh boy.

[notyourdayrdream]

sixteen glee fics i love!!

today’s my birthday, and i really wanted to have something to post. but i’ve been so busy and kind lost the passion to write over the past few weeks :( so instead i wanted to highlight a few of the authors and their stories that are little presents to read each time

not in order <3

1. Milk and Caffeine by @theyaskedmeto

written like how a fresh batch of cookies tastes. or how espresso feels as it washes over your tongue. one of the earliest klaine fics i read and i still come back to it.

2. The Hating Game by @coffeeorderwrites

so perfect, capital P Perfect. laugh out loud funny too. i want this entire story tattooed on me. it made me really want to read the book it’s based on, but i’m afraid it won’t be as good!

3. andante, andante by himbosamevans

very slice of life-y and very cute. the ending has so much emotion and i walked away with a deeper appreciation of burt hummel.

4. out tonight by snakebitewrites

i usually don’t like chat fics but for some reason this pulled me in! (it’s kurtcedes, kurtcedes pulled me in). feels like something straight out of season five (in a good way!) chaotic and definitely something that happened canonically because i said so.

5. No, the one beside the sex shop by slowcookedvig

read this one while the days in quarantine began to bleed together, and omg it’s so much fun?!??! feels so recent with a very unique premise. i mean, they bake bread! in quarantine! i did that too! the Valentines update is very cool too

6. If Music Be by @blurglesmurfklaine

i vividly remember being super excited to see an email notification that this fic had been updated. i’d rush to my room after school and read it in ten minutes, then again to savor every single word. made me miss concert band.

7. Friends in Low Places by @esperantoauthor

a staple. a classic. will be read in middle schools and considered a must read. i love a snarky blaine, and OHMYGOSH klaine is so adorable in this!

8. Chasing Pavements by @spaceorphan18

i actually need to catch up on this! but ugh, fake dating, i live off this trope. you know when something is written so well you just want to throw your book/phone and bury your head in your pillow and scream? that’s me ever over chapter of this fic.

9. A Simpler Time by legallyblained

i feel like not enough people have seen Pleasantville! i remember watching it when i was really young with my parents. loved santana and blaine’s relationship in this and the 50s aesthetic! will definitely get you a bit emotional

10. Syrup and Honey by @heartsmadeofbooks

read it on ff.net and loved it! started my complete love for bakery AUs and lawyer!blaine. really great descriptions, the world felt so full and complete! can’t wait to reread!

11. Lights Will Guide You Home by lavender_love00

i mean, it’s perfect. waiting to reread this, but the world of this story is so lived in and cozy that when everything falls apart you crumble with it. bittersweet but mostly sweet ending, when i ended the story i just felt so satisfied

12. Anderson Barbershop by PaellaisComplicated

really cute! jeff and nick were a cute side couple to have along with the setting (never read a klaine fic set in jersey lol) the second part of the series is awesome too!

13. In Orbit by hundredindecisions

having so much fun reading this so far! i love stories where people float in and out of each other’s lives, it feels so real. can’t wait to read more!

14. Wise to be Cruel by hedgehogtongues

AHH I WANT SEASON TWO NOW! really made me see characters in a new light, santana and kurt especially. loved sancedes, and the building of kurt and blaine’s eventual relationship. santana’s snark is just perfect for her situation as kurt.

15. I Have Guidelines by @hippohead

friends to lovers, fake dating, my kryptonite. from the very beginning, i could tell kurt and blaine were hopelessly in love with each other. and then sebastian, oh sebastian.

16. Pressed Against The Glass (series) by @gleefulpoppet

combined some of the tropes i enjoyed the least (soulmates, age gaps) and wove them into a beautiful story. kurt and blaine are so patient, that the smaller moments have more pay off than the big ones. a masterpiece.

thank you guys for making this year so special :)
