{the proposal- kuroo}

on today’s episode of “rev accidentally disregards the polls she made”, we have this fic :3 I actually adore this one, it was so fun to write!! hope you enjoy <3 also… thank you sm for 1k followers 😭🫶🏻 that’s huge, I appreciate everyone sm 🥹

gn!reader, no physical descriptions. fluff fluff fluff. alcohol mentions, drunk reader. dialogue heavy at the start.

“You need to propose to me.”

Kuroo, who is enjoying his drink, begins to choke. “I what?”

You roll your eyes with a barely concealed smile.

“Not for real, silly, just a fake one.”

He looks at you like you’ve gone insane. “I’m not following.”

“We’re broke university students, do you really think we can afford to pay for more than two drinks tonight? If you propose, I bet people would make a drunken mistake and offer to buy us a celebration round.” You wiggle your eyebrows at him as he continues to give you that same incredulous look.

“That’s-“ he cuts himself off before he can finish that thought and starts with a new one. “I doubt that would work. I mean, maybe at a restaurant with free dessert, but a bar? Really?”

“I’ve seen it done in stranger places!” You defend yourself. “Besides, you’ve been sipping on your drink for the past 25 minutes. If the ice had poison in it, you’d be dead by now,” you lean back and cross your arms.

Your boyfriend just shakes his head. “Your mind is a very interesting place. Alright, fine. We’ll do it, but if it doesn’t work that’s going to be really embarrassing. Hand me your ring, I’ll do it when more people are around.”

You only have to wait another ten minutes before a group of business men having a meeting a couple of tables over appear to be drunk enough to invest in young love.

Your boyfriend nods once to signal that he’s going to do it and soon enough he’s on one knee, fake tears forming at the corners of his eyes and a dusting of pink on his cheeks that make you want to kiss them.

(Your heart jumps that the thought that he could do this for real one day).

“You’re the love of my life,” he begins, and you make a mental note that he either has a bright future in acting or his drink really is too strong, despite his insistence that he could handle it earlier.

A lady one table over gasps and draws more attention to the performance in front of the customers.

“And I absolutely adore every single thing about you. I had a whole plan for this, but with the way you’re looking tonight, I can’t wait a second longer. We’ve managed to get many years together already, and I’d be honoured to spend the rest of our lives just like this. Will you marry me?”

You’re genuinely touched at his words and the sincerity in his tone almost makes you forget it’s fake.

Not wanting to make your audience wait much longer, you make a big show of nodding your head and jumping into his crouched form with a loud “yes!”

Drunken cheers are only background noise while you press against his chest. His heartbeat eliminates the chance of you focusing on anything but him.

Kuroo tips his head down to whisper, “think we pulled it off?”

You nod against him and start to get up. He looks over to see one of the drunk business men coming over to greet you.

“Congratulations on your engagement! Let us buy the happy couple some drinks!”

The man’s face is flushed and he gestures to his table. “Order whatever you’d like, it’ll be put on our tab.”

You fake surprise. “Oh my goodness, that’s very generous of you, but we could never take advantage of your kindness like that!”

Beside you, your ‘fiancé’ stifles a laugh but the man doesn’t notice. “No, I insist! You should celebrate.”

This time Kuroo takes over. “Ah… well, thank you, sir. Rest assured we won’t go too crazy.”

The man laughs and claps him on the back. “What a polite couple of kids you are! Reminds me of me and my wife,” he winks before heading back to his table, whistling some tune.

You spin around and look up at your boyfriend with a smug grin. “So what are we getting first?”

A couple of hours later, you’re both stumbling into your campus apartment, giggling and trying to shush each other despite not having any other roommates.

You somehow manage to get through your night routines and fall back into your bed soon after. You’re a far more wasted than Kuroo is (he always drinks less than you to be able to take care of you), so he tries to get you to sip on some water.

He watches you with a silly grin as you fiddle with your “engagement” ring. You’ve since slipped it back onto your index finger where it originally was this evening, but you move it back to your ring finger and fiddle with it.

“I think…” your words are slightly slurred and laced with sleep. “I mean, I know… that I don’t want my real engagement ring to be diamond.”

His grin widens so much his cheeks begin to hurt. “No? So what will it be, baby?”

You form your own smile. “I’m sure I’ll love whatever you come up with. You know me best after all.”

He forces you to take another sip of water when your words don’t get any less coherent. While you drink he thinks of the ruby ring tucked away somewhere at Kenma’s house. You’re far too good at sniffing out clues and he’s never been good at keeping secrets from you.

You’re still in university, it’s far too soon to get engaged for real- you’ve both always said you wanted to wait until you’re done with school- but he’s been saving up for that ring since high school. he’s always knows you would be the one for him.

So when the time comes he’ll be ready. With a speech much better than whatever he said tonight.

“Alright, let’s get some sleep. You’re going to have the worst hangover tomorrow, you haven’t had that much to drink in a while.”

You tug at his wrist before he can shut the lamp off. “Wait, don’t you want to celebrate our engagement?”

“Sleep, baby.”

You pout a bit. “Don’t you think we celebrated enough tonight?”

You stare at him and he sighs. “There’s plenty of time for celebrating our fake engagement some more tomorrow,” he shuts the lamp off and wrangles you down with him. “Now it’s time for sleep.”

“‘m not tired,” you mumble, obviously lying. “I could go all night.”

You settle onto your pillow and he strokes your cheek. “I know, sweetheart, you’re a fighter.”

You nod as you begin to doze off.

He notices the ring still on your finger and he smiles softly.

The hangover you’ll be sporting tomorrow will definitely have been worth it.

How they choose an engagement ring for you

Short little headcanons (scenarios?) about how the boys go about picking the perfect engagement ring for you.

Features: Diluc, Kaeya, Childe, Zhongli, Ayato, Itto, Kaveh, and Alhaitham. Reader's gender isn't mentioned, but Ayato's part implies fem!reader.

🦉Diluc – The more time Diluc spent with you, his lover, the more sure he was that you are the one. He knows he wants to spend he rest of his life with you, and so he decides to ask you to marry him. But first, he must find the perfect engagement ring to convey his sincere feelings for you. The Ragnvindr family is of noble origins, and Diluc is no stranger to expensive and beautiful jewelry. He decides to have your ring custom-made to ensure it encompasses all your favorite design elements. Diluc wants it to appeal to your tastes as much as possible because he wants you to like it, and he’s more than willing to spend extra mora to achieve this. The engagement ring will look beautiful and feature a garnet as the centerpiece—specially requested by Diluc. Garnet symbolizes unconditional love and protection for one’s partner, and Diluc swears to love you unconditionally and keep you safe for as long as he lives, even if he doesn’t say it aloud. He takes a more traditional approach in asking you to marry him, first wining and dining you before taking you out to a scenic place. He’ll get down on one knee and show you the ring, finally asking the question. It will be one of the few moments in his life where he will bare his heart to you and leave himself vulnerable.

🦚Kaeya – He never thought he’d find someone he’d want to marry, but here he is, browsing through Marjorie’s selection of engagement rings out of drunken impulse. He imagines how each ring would look on your hand, taking into account whether you would like the style and color because he knows your preferences down to a science. Kaeya tells himself this isn’t that serious, it’s just a fun little ‘what-if’, but he sees the perfect ring he knows will look stunning on your hand, and the same drunken impulse makes him buy it. Kaeya considers returning the ring when he sobers up the following day, but something stops him. He keeps telling himself he’ll do it later, but that later never comes. Days turn to weeks, and week into months, and that ring still sits in its box in his pocket. He’s joked about marrying you plenty of times before as a form of flirting, but asking the real thing feels impossible to Kaeya. It’s not until you find the ring by pure accident and piece things together yourself that the impossible turns to reality. Kaeya will play it cool and try to make light of the situation, but internally he will be a nervous wreck. If you accept, he’ll be over the moon, but if you reject him, he’ll be crushed.

🐋Childe – Nothing is too expensive for Childe to afford, especially if it’s a gift for you. While picking out an engagement ring for you, he will focus more on the look and style of the accessory rather than the price. His main concern is finding something he thinks you will like and will look good on you; he’s literally not concerned about the price at all. Childe buys you a ring with a large gemstone in your favorite color and an engraving on the band about his undying love for you. The Harbinger loves spoiling you by giving you gifts since it’s one of his love languages, and to him, nothing speaks louder than an engagement ring of the highest quality money can afford. Plus, an extravagant and expensive-looking ring will clearly indicate to other men that you are taken and provided for. It’s both a show of love and a means to stake his claim. He’ll wine and dine you before posing the question and pulling out the ring. Childe will be visibly excited because he really wants to take your relationship to the next stage—he knows he wants a future with you, and he hopes you do too.

🔶Zhongli – Another man that’s not concerned about the price when purchasing you the ring (Hu Tao will chew him out for putting the bill on Wangsheng Funeral Parlor’s tab again). Zhongli has a very discerning eye when it comes to minerals and craftsmanship. He carefully appraises every ring on display, studying the quality of the metal in the band, the cut and polish of the gemstone, and the skillfulness of the craftsmanship. He will easily spot any flaws in the ring’s design or any fakes that a sneaky merchant might try to sell, so rest assured that you will receive a ring made of only top quality materials. He takes his time in selecting the perfect ring. His love for you is pure and true, and he wants the ring to reflect that. Anything less than the best won’t convey his feelings for you properly, or so he thinks. He’ll take you out for dinner first and then on a nice stroll around Liyue Harbor before asking the question and pulling out the ring, being very charming and polite as he does. He’s very calm about the whole thing, but will hide his disappointment if you say no.

🧋Ayato – After the passing of his parents, Ayato kept their wedding and engagement rings as a memento of sorts. The rings symbolized the loving bond between his parents, and he wanted to remember that. When Ayato developed a deep, intimate bond of his own with you, the thought of marrying you crossed his mind. He knew he could easily afford a high-quality, expensive engagement ring since he was the head of the Kamisato Clan, but he ended up choosing to give you his mother’s engagement ring. The passion and love that his father harbored when giving the ring to his mother are the same feelings Ayato feels towards you. In his mind, this engagement ring is the perfect physical representation of those feelings, and also a good way to welcome you into the Kamisato family. He would be slightly nervous about asking you to marry him, but he would hide his nervousness well. He truly wants to form a family with you, but he’s aware being the spouse to the Kamisato Clan head will come with it’s fair share of responsibilities, and he will understand if you choose to reject him. But if you accept, then Ayato hopes to use his parents’ old wedding rings during your marriage ceremony too.

🐂Itto – It is well known that Itto barely has a single mora to his name. The man can barely afford to buy food much less an engagement ring. Itto thought about giving you a cheap imitation of one, or crafting one out of flowers because it’s the thought that counts, right? But after some thought, he decides that no, he wants to get you a proper ring to show you how serious he is about wanting to marry you. With his mind made up, Itto will work hard to earn money by taking on various odd jobs. He can’t hold down a single job for long, but for the sake of your ring, he tries. It takes the oni a long time to scrounge up the necessary money because he will turn down any help from his gang members. He wants to obtain the ring through his own effort and nobody else’s. Itto won’t be able to afford a fancy ring with the money he saves up, so expect it to look simple but tasteful (thank Shinobu later for helping Itto choose a nice ring for you and avoid getting scammed). His proposal will be public and flashy, but he’d be really nervous about asking you to marry him, even dropping the ring and almost losing it because of his nerves, but rest assured you will receive it.

🍷Kaveh – The architect is very picky when it comes to choosing you gifts, more so this time since it’s an engagement ring to you from him. Kaveh went to a local jeweler to look at their selection of engagement rings, but he wasn’t satisfied with anything they had. This ring’s jewel is the wrong size, that ring’s metal is the wrong shade, and this one’s design isn’t pretty enough for your likeness. Disappointed, Kaveh decides that he will make you the perfect engagement ring himself. He takes weeks to design it, filling his sketchbooks with sketches of potential designs and crossing off failed attempts before he finally settles on one he thinks will look perfect on your hand. When the time comes to craft it, Kaveh buys only the best quality materials, taking on more commissions to be able to afford them. He works on the ring in his spare time, being careful to ensure every aspect of it looks as perfect as his artistic skills will allow. Once its finally finished, Kaveh feels proud of himself, confident that his ring will be one of the most beautiful pieces of jewelry you will ever see—and it honestly is. Even so, he’s still nervous about actually popping the question and giving it to you. When he finally works up the courage, he will take you out on a super romantic date that’s been planned down to every detail. The only unpredictable part about it will be your response to his proposal.

🎧Alhaitham – He’s not exactly frugal when it comes to buying things he likes or thinks are necessary, but he won’t buy you a super expensive engagement ring. In fact, he will get you a simple silver ring with minimal decoration. Haitham prioritizes function over fashion. He doesn’t see a point in giving you an extravagant and flashy ring that would probably hinder you in your daily activities when a simple ring will serve the exact same purpose and be less bothersome. But just because it doesn’t look extravagant doesn’t mean it’s cheap. Oh no, Haitham makes sure the metal is the real deal and made by a professional craftsman. He understands this would be a big step in your relationship, and he wants the ring to convey the seriousness of his feelings for you. The Scribe also won’t make a fanfare out of gifting it to you, he will simply pose the question during a calm and private moment between the two of you. He won’t show any nervousness or excitement on his face, and will be very understanding if you refuse but a part of him does hope you will agree. Haitham seldom likes to spend his time in the company of others, so for him to want you to be a permanent part of his life speaks volumes to how much he loves you. Not having you be a part of his life would certainly leave a mark on him.

Or: Cellbit starts overthinking his upcoming wedding (again), big surprise there

For Spiderbit Week Day Two: Modern AU | Family

-

The wedding is in a week and a half, and Cellbit can already tell that he isn't going to be able to sleep until his honeymoon. Not from the stress of wedding preparations- no, Pac and Mike and Foolish have got all of those covered. Not from cold feet, either- he loves Roier so much that his heart aches from the weight of it all, and he knows that Roier loves him just as much.

No, the wedding planning is going fine. Perfectly, even. The hall is picked out, and Pac and Foolish are going to start decorating it soon enough. The food is all set thanks to Phil's absolute prodigy of a son. The band, Radio Egg, has been practicing almost daily for about a month now. The officiant is ready. The suits are ready. The flowers are ready.

But...

Sighing, Cellbit looks out over the venue with his arms crossed. He shouldn't even be here- he promised Roier that he'd try and take a step back from all the wedding planning and preparations before his hair started falling out from stress, but Richarlyson wanted to show Bobby the venue, and, well. How could Cellbit say no to that?

"Look!" Richarlyson says, pointing the iPad up at a large stained glass window above the venue's doors. "It's a sunset!"

Bobby's response is garbled by both the iPad and the internet connection, but he sounds impressed enough.

Satisfied with his brother's response, Richarlyson beams and takes off to show him the gardens outside.

Cellbit lets him go. He doesn't want to bring the mood down with all his thinking.

The venue is one of Foolish and Vegetta's properties. It's gorgeous: large, open doorways, exposed wood framing, custom stained glasswork. It borders a river, and it's surrounded by a dense, peaceful forest. There are gardens now thanks to Pac and Mike (with Foolish's supervision.)

It's... big.

It's really big.

Which is fine! It's great, even! Roier has a lot of family coming! He has his parents, his grandfather, his (asshole) twin brother. Leo. Maybe even Bobby, if Bobby's doctors clear him for travel for a day.

And then there are his friends. Jaiden, Etoiles, Rivers, Carre, Mariana, Mariana's bizarre estranged husband. Missa, who is bringing Phil as his plus one, who is bringing both of their children. Pol, who is also acting as their photographer. Even some of Vegetta's old friends are coming, and some of Foolish's like Tina and Mouse.

There are a lot of chairs set up already on Roier's side of the venue. At least two dozen already, and some more are probably going to be added soon depending on whether or not Roier decides to invite Quackity and his (asshole) twin brother after all.

Cellbit looks at Roier's side.

And then he looks at his side and the six entire chairs set up.

Cellbit... has Pac and Mike. He has Felps. Richarlyson, of course, is coming. So is Bagi, who agreed to come only if she could bring her daughter. But Empanada might decide to sit by her other mothers, and so might Bagi. So there could just be four people on Cellbit's side of the venue. Maybe a chair for Bad, but the invitation he responded to was Roier's and not Cellbit's, and is Cellbit overthinking this? No, yeah, right?

Outside, Richarlyson whoops and shouts, "Did you see that? I told you I can do a backflip now!"

Cellbit quietly lets out a single puff of laughter. He smiles, just a little, and goes to sit on the first chair on his side of the venue. In a perfect world, it would be his father's chair. But.

He leans his head back and looks up at the ceiling, hands clasped across his chest. His fingertips brush against his engagement ring. It was the best he could afford, but Roier deserves better.

His eyes slip shut.

Roier deserves better.

Slowly, Cellbit takes in a deep breath. He lets it out just as slowly. Breathing exercises, the same ones that Melissa taught him months ago when they first met while waiting outside of Roier's office.

(Melissa isn't coming to the wedding. Apparently, she's too busy with "business things". She sent a lovely card and a bouquet of flowers, though. So there's that.)

When Cellbit had reached out to his parents a month ago with wedding invitations, it was the first time he'd spoken to them since getting out of prison. Roier encouraged him to do it, just in case they actually changed their minds since their last conversation with him years and years ago.

But:

"Sorry, you must have sent this to the wrong address," Cellbit's father had written back. The invitation was wrinkled and folded messily into the back of the envelope with Cellbit's name scribbled out on it in red pen.

(He wrote a letter, a letter! Because he had blocked Cellbit's email and phone number and... it's understandable, actually.)

Felps is going to be the one to walk with Cellbit down the aisle. Both of Roier's fathers are walking him.

Cellbit isn't jealous of his fiancé. He knows that he's alone for a reason; the fresh scar across Roier's grandfather's face is proof enough of that.

It just... hurts. A little. Just a little.

His phone starts buzzing in his pocket. Only one person actually bothers reaching out to him, and so Cellbit smiles and pulls his phone out and accepts the call.

"Guapito!" he cheers.

"Gatinho!" Roier responds. "Hola, hola! Are you and Richarlyson still at the venue?"

"Mhmm. He's showing Bobby the river now, I think."

"Awww."

"Awww."

Roier bumps into something on the other end of the line and swears:

"Fucking- whatever! I'm fine!"

(Cellbit's smile aches from the sweet fondness dripping off it.)

Then, Roier asks, "How does it look? Send me a picture."

Never one to disobey his fiancé's orders, Cellbit gets out of the chair and walks up to the front of the venue. He takes a quick photo, sends it to Roier, tries not to feel too disappointed as he's faced with the sad reality of his familial situation yet again.

Roier is quiet for a moment.

And then, softly:

"They didn't RSVP, did they?"

Cellbit decides to feign indifference.

"Yeah, but it's fine. Felps said he's fine with walking me down the aisle."

"Isn't he your best man?"

"I think everybody in my wedding party except for Bagi is my best man."

"Even Richarlyson?"

Cellbit goes to take a look out the door. Richarlyson has calmed down by now, and he and Bobby are just talking now: Richarlyson spread out on the grass, Bobby propped up next to him. They're talking about nothing and everything and only things that other children would understand.

Turning back to the venue, Cellbit replies, "Nah, he's the ring bearer."

"Aww, that's cute. Bobby can help!"

"I thought Bobby was the flower boy."

"He can have two jobs."

Cellbit's smile saddens slightly. "Right."

(Because they don't even know if Bobby will be able to make it. So far, it's a yes, but things can change in just a week and a half. It only took two minutes for Bobby to need to be hospitalized, a week is nothing.)

"Speaking of jobs-" Roier starts.

Cellbit rolls his eyes. "I told you, I'm not quitting. Someone needs to keep an eye on Cucurucho."

"Sure, yeah, shut up, let me speak, okay? Okay?"

Cellbit shuts up.

Roier lets out a breath, and his smile is audible as he says, "I have a job for you! Since you're there, move some of my chairs over to your side. Try and make it even."

Cellbit's mouth goes dry. "I... what?"

"You heard me! Do I need to come and do it myself?"

"No, no! It's your day off! I'm just... why?"

"'Why'? Because they're all your family, too, stupid. We're getting married. Mi familia es tu familia."

Stunned into silence, Cellbit can only listen as Roier continues: "It's our wedding, who cares if the audience is all mixed up? Who gives a shit!"

Weakly, Cellbit echoes, "Who gives a shit. But, Roier, are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure."

A brief pause, and then, quieter, Roier adds, "Only if you're okay with it. I don't want to, like-"

"No, it's fine. I..." Tears welling up and lungs filling with emotion, Cellbit chokes out, "I love you. Te amo."

"Ay, now! Save it for the wedding!"

"Não," Cellbit simply says, "Eu te amo. Pendejo."

"You're going to make me cry, what the fuck?"

Roier sniffs. So does Cellbit. But Cellbit is smiling, and he knows that Roier is, too.

Outside, Richarlyson laughs. So does Bobby, in his cute little robotic way.

Cellbit looks at the chairs. They'll all be filled in a week and a half, and it'll be the best day of his life. He'll be married, and his entire family will be watching, and that's all he's ever wanted.

How Ghost and Soap would propose to you— COD Headcanons

How would our boys propose to the reader? This is what I imagine.

Ghost:

- This man would plan everything accordingly, months prior to the engagement.

- It’s important that everything has to be perfect for you.

- He’s also very calm and collected, knowing that you loved him very much and he loved you.

- Ghost won’t pick a ring just because it’s expensive, it has to match your taste/aesthetic so you’ll be more pleased with it.

- When the day finally comes, you’re completely oblivious. Good. He wants to catch you completely by surprise.

- Ghost plans to take you on a date where you first met— the coffee shop, where he was getting a tea and you were his barista when you two immediately became smitten.

- You’re enjoying a latte and he ordered his usual tea, his thumb grazing the velvet box in his pocket.

- Soon enough, he told you to close your eyes since he had a surprise for you.

- You obliged and Ghost went to your side, going down on one knee and taking out the box.

“I know it’s taken me a long time to do this, but I needed to make sure everything was perfect for you before I did. And I can’t go on my next mission without knowing your answer to this..”

Your eyes shot open and you quickly covered your mouth with your hand, the tears beginning to stream down.

“(Y/n), will you do me this honor of being the love of my life?”

And you let out a choked yes.

And he slipped the ring on your finger before you jumped into his arms, kissing him and sobbing.

You both had the coffee shop cheering you on and congratulating you over and over.

________

Soap:

- this man will go all out for the engagement. Love had no price tag in his opinion.

- This man also had to give himself a stern pep talk in the mirror to raise his confidence up.

- That and calling Ghost about what he should do and if the ring was a good choice— also worrying about if you’d say no.

- “If (y/n) doesn’t want it I’ll take it.” “Shut up.” The two would joke and playfully argue about the engagement to make Soap feel better.

- Finally, he was ready to do it. And he picked your anniversary so it would be less suspicious.

- The ring he had gotten you was the most expensive he could afford, and he truly hoped you like it.

- He was taking you out to an expensive dinner too.

- All you could do was wonder how this hobo could afford all this.

- When he told you to close your eyes because he had an anniversary gift, you joked that it better be a ring.

- You opened your eyes when he asked you to and found him at your side, on his knee with a beautiful ring out.

“I know you wanted to wait until we could properly afford all of this but I just can’t do that anymore, (y/n). I need to make you mine right now. I can’t afford to waste another minute. I actually can’t even afford a piece of gum after this.”

He chuckled as you started laughing in between sobs.

“Will you be mine then? And you can’t say no because I can’t return the ring.”

Obviously you said yes to your hobo.

He slipped the ring on your finger and you two shared a kiss, with the waitstaff and customers cheering for you.

_________

Bonus: how ghost and soap would propose to each other.

Ghost: What did the lieutenant say to the sergeant?

Soap: what?

Ghost: I was going to propose to you but my dog ate the ring. Now it’s a diamond in the ruff.

Soap: Not bad.

Ghost: …

Soap: …

Ghost: …

Soap: wait a minute.

How & Why Celibacy Works

Ussy Costs Funds, Ick is Free

Level Up Lecture: Xesual Economics 101

Disclaimer: I am an adult cisgender woman targeting a teen audience. I encourage all teens to share and/or include their parents in the conversation of our posts for the sake of transparency on my adult end. Thank you for your engagement.

The Walmarts keep the Targets in business. The Family Dollars / Dollar Generals fill in the gaps where the Walmarts fall flat

Target: Celibate

Walmart: Xesually Active Singles

Family Dollar / DG: Xes Workers or Misc.

I’m not saying if you’re a xesually active single, you’re cheap as a person. I am highlighting how celibacy is the premium product that’s preferred by customers in the market.

There are people who would drive to another Target if their local one is out of something versus heading to the Walmart or Family Dollar within their location.

POV: You’re selling ussy (p or b in front ;)

Everybody sells ussy even if they are poor businessmen. I’m gonna teach you how to market and leverage your coochie correctly.

Men (masculines) marry for the main incentive: in-house ussy.

Pick Up This Gem: This is why you do not move in with them until you’ve at least received an engagement ring.

You are aware of the fact that all masculines want access to your ussy…eventually. Now that you know this, you are going to dangle it over their heads until they give you the things (or lifestyle) you want.

Marriage

Gifts

Business or personal investments, etc.

Choose which ussy you have:

Target Ussy - higher prices, Starbucks, target customer is not on a tight budget seeking steals, strong brand loyalty (driving to another Target versus visiting competitors)

Walmart Ussy - mid range prices, hit or miss with consumers and their affordability thus the wide range of products

Family Dollar / DG -lowest prices, accessible for low income buyers (girls with cheap bfs or baby daddy’s, not SWers) accessible for buyers seeking instant gratification which is affordability.

Answer Now!: Who is your target customer?

MY TARGET CUSTOMER

Disposable income

Regular shopper

Money management, but generous spending

Most likely you listed something that aligns with Target’s target audience, right? It’s ok if you feel like it’s a Target / Walmart (hit or miss remember?).

This is how the Walmarts (xesually active singles) keep the Targets (abstinence and celibates) in business; Target has a competitor to leverage their premium product against.

If you don’t like it, go to our competitors (Walmart / DG). Why?

Because the fact that you can’t afford / don’t prefer Target (no xes until marriage) is the reason why our regular customers shop here, and many of them spend a lot each Target trip.

Customers= Masculines

There are plenty of high spending, high quality, high earning people who shop exclusively at Walmart or rotate stores for the best prices. This is how Walmart balances the market, allowing Target to market as the premium place to shop.

If you chose NO:

Quick Breakdown

This is the best time to remain abstinent or practice celibacy because the market is saturated with free / easy access opportunities for xes. It’s a marketing strategy to reserve your body for exclusive access, especially if you’ve never had xes b4.

Exclusive access has the leverage to insist on getting what they want before entry is allowed.

This leverage is lacked or lessened when you allow xesual access prior to securing your goal(s) at hand-marriage, gifts, investment, etc.

You’re not reserved, which means access to you is not exclusive even if you are rarely used. This is where the leverage of abstinence and celibacy comes in.

Bluntly: the (high quality) masculines who can offer the most fun and funds usually prefer exclusive access. Most people prefer exclusivity to feel special. Dare to tell me I’m wrong

This leverage allows you to make a luxury sale, similar to fashion houses or upscale lounges.

POV: You are a nightclub

You require patrons to book a table and a bottle of champagne before being allowed into the club.

Your “table” and “champagne” is equivalent to requiring a masculine to marry you before gaining entry into your body.

If they don’t like it, point the person to the BYOB or the club that’s more of their style.

Exclusive Access = The premium, preferred product by a higher class/ quality / spending group of consumers.

Now, I hope that made sense.

TIP 2 TEEN SELF: Learn about proper hypergamy early on. Not the SB/ SW stuff even amongst hypergamy content. Take the time out to learn how to date up and build yourself into becoming the woman who thrives in high quality environments instead of shying away or fumbling.

Homework: Listen to this Science of Birds podcast. Take notes on how the “choosy” female bird chooses which male to make babies with

BuyMeACoffee, but I prefer wine ;)
