A/N : i have nothing to say other than the fact there will be an excessive amount of twitch slang bc why tf not + just,,, heavy streamer!albedo brainrot ;-;

AIGHT

streamer albedo

…

pog—

so before we get into him being whipped for u, let’s go over the type of strimmer mr Kreideprinz is

fun fact that’s his twitch name—

albedo would be the type to do lots of variety streams of different games, but also the occasional art one if he wants to have a chill stream with his chat !!

speaking of chat… they’re an odd mix of wholesome supporters, KAPPA + POGGERS + catJAM (bc he always has some bangers on in the bg like yes u bless our ears my guy) + KEKW + EZ Clap + his own emotes spammers, mr albedo’s very own shrimps (me, ahEm—), and ppl who just appreciate his voice + gameplay

if there’s a troll he just bans them OMEGALUL

omg he has lots of emotes (which he made in some of his art streams so his viewers could choose some) for every scenario but we’ll get into the popular ones in a bit 👁👁

he’s most definitely one of the bigger, well-known streamers but with a smaller group of friends

his discord server has,,, a lot of ppl,,, 70k+ ppl big,,, rip notifs if ur in it ;-;

he has it muted tho 🐥 like, sir, that’s ur server pay the goddamn price smh

wait i forgot to mention this but he has his webcam on when streaming

so u can bet ur chickens that when ppl come to visit his stream bc of whatever category he has on, they stay for his visuals and voice <33

his twt 🤡 mans gets 1k+ likes, rts, comments within the first 5-10 mins

omg he gets soft when he receives sm support from his community 🥺🥺

gifts so many subs when hitting milestones, chat is wholesome or just whenever really HJKSDHKL 

also doesn’t swear much unless he gets played by his own game and/or someone is being incredibly annoying <//3

he also just,,, eats on stream

albedo straight up takes his webcam with him to show him cooking if his viewers ask for it

or he just orders food then and there and eats while chatting to everyone or watching youtube with his chat 🥺

nOW ONTO HIM BEING WHIPPED FOR U AS A GENSHIN STREAMER

this AR55 man 👩‍🦯

he can literally produce content from anything

from artifact farming, to spiral abyss, to running around mindlessly, to building characters he would normally never build, to him seeing how high up is considered too high to dive

and everyone eats it up bc it’s albedo <3

also !! he’s the type who includes the story quests in his streams so his reaction and thoughts on everything is just,,, there

now when u were first introduced in the prologue (yes ur one of the ogs + involved in the dvalin fight <33) he blanked and all his viewers could see was u on screen with him staring blankly in the bottom right of the screen

this man straight up saw u in a cutscene for one second and fell in love

his chat went wild omfg

he immediately made an emote for u and that’s his most popular one 😌

but i kid u not, the moment u appeared in that cutscene (one in which he will forever treasure in the crevices of his heart) was the moment he asked this exact question ;

“ so (y/n) banner when? ” 

and mihoyo heard his pleas and answered with ur event banner 

except it was like,, 4 months later 

at least ur finally here tho :’)

now he can have his lil science-y moments with ur voicelines ;-;

yes, ur the chief alchemist but ✨ 𝒅𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕 ✨

. . .

shut up

n e who

when he saw the notification from mihoyo’s official forums that u will be a playable character in the new update — along with new characters, region, events & a domain — i shit u not he did a rt, his own tweet, an announcement on the community feature on youtube, and made constant reminders to his viewers on twitch abt how he will be a (y/n) haver no matter what

he even added future (y/n) haver in his twt display name

what a shrimp—

the 1.2 update stream 🐥 he was there waiting for it to go live with like,,, 19k viewers spamming his chat abt predictions and obv ur official release + showcase

and when i say this man fell even more in love while watching ur trailer and character showcase 🥺 he wouldn’t stop smiling or being in awe bc ur just??? so stunning???

mihoyo clearly has a favourite child and it’s u

chat was spamming ur exclusive emote like crazy oml

u can bet it was also flooded with lots of POGs and POGGERS 

overall it was a very fun, chaotic stream filled with lots of (y/n) appreciation and love <33

also a very memorable stream for all his viewers bc of the side of albedo they rarely see unless ur involved

the day ur banner was to go live tho 🐥

the streams leading up to the fateful day consisted of him farming ur mats 

that’s it

boss runs, local specialties, hero wits, talent books, the mats needed for ur weapon he was inevitably going to pull for (only the best for the best, afterall) and many domain runs

many painful domain runs

all of it was worth it tho bc ur worth everything :’)

an actual quote said by him—

at least he can get u and ur weapon to lvl 90 right off the bat with all the artifacts tailored for u ;-;

and get u to that point he did HJSDKJF

once ur banner dropped? immediately started wishing

2 multis in and he gets u 😣

albedo nearly cried and was the literal embodiment of head in hands

wHEN I SAY HIS CHAT BLEW TF UP AND HIS MODS JOINED IN

modCheck has left the chat

everyone’s rooting for him :’)

pulled for ur weapon and got it in 1 multi

sir give me ur luck pls and ty

but yes he nearly choked on the gASP he let out while chat screamed even more

he blanked for a bit, i won’t lie ;-;

but when he realised this was real, he immediately went to his party set up and put u in

can we all get an f in the chat for his lvl 10 tartaglia 😔💔👊

his chat usually rages at him to build him but if he’s being honest, he cba

ur vl when he put u in the party tho <333

now he’s just spent half an hour running around with u, letting u do ur idle animations (will always be grateful for mihoyo creating u like this), reading ur very limited (for now—) character story and going through ur voicelines 

ur morning & about us (when he unlocks it) voiceline >>>>> his heart be running laps rn i swear

eventually he does begin to build u after much admiration on his end and at lvl 1 with lvl 20 artifacts, u already have 1.6k atk 🐥

now after he levels u and ur weapon to lvl 90, u have 2.8k atk 🐥

rip mobs <//3

he now plays u as his main dps 😌

the kit initially designed for u is meant to be more for support?? kinda like the whole ganyu or zhongli debate abt them being a dps or a support/sub dps ;-;

except ur more utility like venti or bennett

and even though the majority said at the beginning (aka, mihoyo, pretty much any other streamer and the larger part of the fanbase) that ur meant for support, he said fuck that and built u as his main dps

and i won’t lie, u do more damage than any of his characters, and ppl who co op with him

ur his pride and joy :’)

he went to take a look at ur consts to see if they were worth the rng suffering and, lo-and-behold,

they were

so now he’s using all his saved primos for u to try and get ur c6 const, along with making ur weapon r5 :’)

his chat gets a free view of him internally suffering when the gold light doesn’t come, and his external suffering when he loses the 50/50

in the end, he decided to whale for u <33

after nearly an hour, he has u to c6 and ur weapon to r5 ;-;

now all he’s been doing the whole stream is running around with u in open world, doing his daily farming, doing more domain and boss runs, exploring the new region (dragonspine) + ur story quest

he’s saving the event quest for another stream bc ✨content✨ 

in ur quest, he had multiple heart attacks and now has many, many screenshots <3

he now has a zoomed in pic of ur face as his twt pfp <33

okay so i also feel like he’s not all that bothered abt getting characters to friendship level 10 immediately and would rather let it happen through time

but obv ur not any other character *proceeds to debby ryan at u*

even if ur not fit for a particular domain or boss, he still puts u in the party so when collecting the blossom/rewards, u can get the friendship exp ;-;

he just wants ur name card so he can show off okay 🥺

when he lets his viewers pick out the playlist, 98% of the songs are from ur character demo theme 

they just know him so well 😩

they also just wanna see the way he smiles when he hears it play but shhhhhh

now he just has his in-game avatar as u, and ur namecard too <33

also his signature is just ;

“ (y/n)’s favourite streamer ”

SYNOPSIS : You have been in love with your best friend Sakusa Kiyoomi for as long as you can remember. The problem? He is in love with somebody else.

PS PS PS PS PLEASE LOOK AT THIS NOTE : 6k words. The paragraphs that start with a bold word (like this sentence) is Suna's actual feelings/POV.

Listen to this song for the experience hehe thank u for the wait and likes/rbs mean the world to me ily all ! <3

TAGLIST : CLOSED

prev ♡ series masterlist ♡ next

The ground below you felt like it was falling apart, walls closing in on you as your eyes keep zooming in on the silhouette of Suna with another woman. You desperately wanted to look away but your pupils stay glued to them as you savor the feeling of your chest tightening in pain—a great reminder that you weren't dreaming, neither are you insane. The vision is clear, it's real—so is the shattering of your heart that almost deafens you the longer you stay unmoving. The sting in your eyes another thrust to reality as you refuse to blink at the way she leans even closer to him, his hold on her waist tightening.

Osamu holds you by the wrist to forcibly turn you around, his eyes skimming your face in worry before slowly softening along with the tightness of his grip on you.

"Should I take you back to the cabin?" He asks you hesitantly, slow and cautious like he doesn’t want to say the wrong words and possibly make you even more upset than you visibly are—no matter how hard you try to hide it.

Shaking your head in decline, you tiredly smile at him—shaking your arms away from his fingers, "It's fine, 'Samu."

He looks at you in hesitation, worry in his eyes slowly melting as he receives your message clearly. It wasn’t that you were uncomfortable with Osamu, it’s more on the fact that you know he is a dear friend to both of you and you weren’t too big of a fan at the thought of revealing all your weakness to him—albeit you trusted him. The conflicted emotions bubbling inside you were real despite the fact that you haven’t come to terms with accepting it yet.

Not to mention, it was humiliating. To be in the middle of a club, alone, while your boyfriend sits on a couch with another woman. Recovering from the initial shock, you refuse to even sneak a glance any longer—the image burned into your mind strong enough for you to recall it with every blink of your eyes 

Looking around, your first worry would be if any prying eyes of your friends also saw the scene. You could take the humiliation, the embarrassment would probably dissipate as soon as it came. The idea of Suna being labeled as a cheater, something he's not, does make you flinch inwardly. You weren’t a saint. It's not that you’re trying to play the martyr who worries about other people instead of yourself. If anything, you're probably too selfish. You didn't want to hear the accusations fall on him as the price of what being with you requires.

He is supposed to be a free man. Suna Rintarō is a name everybody heard in these types of scenes and it wouldn't be a surprise to see a new woman on his arm every single week. Perhaps if you weren’t so insistent on locking him to you with your foolish requests—for your selfish benefits, maybe he'd have a better time. You couldn't imagine being tied down to the false responsibilities that come with fake-dating a person you didn’t even love.

Suna isn't like you. He's far from being someone like you. He wouldn't fall in love with you so easily as you did with him because he’s loyal to the woman he swore to steal back when he joined your hands together in agreement. He knows what your place in his life is and wasn’t fooled by the delusions that make everything seem so real. You, on the other hand, fail to recognize all the lines—all the boundaries.

Sighing in relief, it seems as if a load was taken off your chest at the relentless partying of your friends—oblivious as they keep themselves occupied with drinks and ladies. This night has done enough to wear you out, the last thing you want is finding excuses to feed the boys who would probably collapse at the reality of your situation. Osamu is one thing, but you don't fret over him too much—he's always been open-minded, understanding, never looking too shallow or too deeply into something before the truth is laid before him.

"'Samu," you begin, fidgeting slightly in your seat as he cranes his neck to you. "Just— Can you.. can you please not mention this to anyone? Let me handle it myself, please?"

He stays silent at that, cogs turning in his head before opening his mouth—possibly to ask you why you would want something like that until he closes it back in understanding, a smile on his lips as he nods along. "Of course, YN. If you need help handling him, tell me, yeah?"

"Of course." 

You wouldn't but the gesture was too kind for you to decline. If anything, you would hate it for any more people to be involved in the web of troubles you've weaved. Knowing Osamu, he would probably be extremely willing, a mediator of sorts that stands between you and Suna—yet it still leaves a bitter taste in your tongue, an uncomfortable itch you couldn’t seem to shake off at the thought of absolutely anybody else knowing.

Not even a minute later, Suna comes around in the corner of your eyes—feet lazily dragging himself to the direction of Kageyama and grabbing him by the shoulders to whisper something. Lifting his head up, your breath hitches in your throat at the way your eyes meet even for a few seconds—the intensity of his golden-green irises too strong for you to simply brush off and ignore. The look on his face is passive—nothing but a small fleck of emotion beneath, restlessness and annoyance if you could tell.0

Eyes widening, you couldn’t stop the way you sit straightly at the realization that he’s walking straight to you—making a beeline through the crowd until he's right in front of you, eyes cast down before slowly whispering in your ear. "I'm not feeling well. Come back to the cabin with me?"

The request sounds almost too powerful to make you bend, the soft slur of his voice on your ear—deep and hoarse along with the cold blow of his breath on the skin of your neck. Osamu stays silent beside you, fingers twirling the ice on his glass as he gives you side-eyes every few seconds. 

If this was a regular night, you would have your arms wrapped around Suna—face on his neck with his own arms around your waist. If you weren’t so confused and hung up on your feelings, you wouldn’t even think twice about it. However, the earlier incident still stings beneath your skin, the pits of your stomach churning in a fiery burn and it does anything but make saying yes an easy thing. 

Suna looks and acts casually with you. Confidence radiating over his whole being as nothing gives away the fact that there had been another woman in his arms a while ago. Well, it’s how it should be, isn't it? This was a game. You weren't dating, weren't in love. He warned you that this was dangerous, and like a moth to a flame, you ignore all of that.

It's unfortunate, however—the rejection coming immediately after you admit your feelings with yourself. He was right to look at you with so much pity that day. You are pitiful. The luck all spent in you as you continuously fall in love with men who want nothing to do with you. As you keep fighting for all the feelings brewing inside of you for them, they're caught up fighting for a woman you barely stand a chance with.

After everything he did to warn you, you find yourself right in his very trap. You couldn't even hate him for it, even if you tried, even if you so badly want to. Who blames another for their own faults? He toys with seduction too easily, treats you with gentle care. Maybe it was the fact that you've never really been on the receiving end of those things your whole life. Maybe that’s why you’re making a fool of yourself as you fall right at his feet. You're helpless in front of the strings that keep pulling you to him. 

Now, with your eyes on each other, connecting in such a way, you wonder how much of you he’s starting to unravel again. If he’s ripping your pages open like he always used to and figuring out that despite the way you act so tough around the idea of falling with him, your heart is harboring the feelings you’re not supposed to. He can look at you for a second and see through the deepest parts of your soul—no matter how cliché that sounded. Looking at you now, is he at least seeing the way your heart beats for him? 

You hope so. 

Courage didn’t come easy for you, opening your mouth with a shaky breath as you decide against the idea of staying with him tonight. Tomorrow is going to be a long day, you know. 

"I'll stay for a little longer," you finally breathe out, eyes looking anywhere but him in fear of getting found out—the truth about how badly you wanted to come with him, sink in him, get lost in him no matter how stupid it sounded. 

He doesn't immediately reply, eyes dragging over you and Osamu who gives him a reassuring nod—a silent message that says he'll take care of you at least while Suna isn't around. From your peripheral, you see Suna sharply inhale, a quiet goodbye falling from his lips as he walked towards the exit.

Bye, Suna. 

Last night was denial, the pain that comes along in the form of a knife that feels like it’s sucking all of you—yet you couldn’t bring yourself to find a reason for the hurt. Because you knew that if only you were a little stronger and refused the building feelings inside you, you wouldn't be hurting as much as you do now.

You're angry—both at yourself and him as the fresh remnants of last night sink into you the moment you open your eyes. Angry at yourself for getting dragged along, letting yourself get played like you always do. Angry at him for making a fool out of you, getting so easily strung by a beautiful woman when he was in this stupid scheme with you. Your emotions felt like it was spilling everywhere. You felt like a goddamn drama queen who couldn't handle watching her crush get with another woman even when he wasn't even hers, to begin with. 

The heavy feeling in your heart intensifies as you leave the bed you're supposed to share with him—his side cold and abandoned as he failed to stay beside you even for one more night. He's not stupid. He could probably tell of the dilemma plaguing you last night, and still, you wished you felt him wrap his arms around you—a reassurance that you at least meant a little more than what you make yourself to be, no matter how immature that sounded.

Today's plan was simple: eat your breakfast, talk to Suna and settle everything about the boundaries of being in this fake relationship. Maybe even end everything if it comes to that.

What wasn’t included in the plan, however, is you bumping into Omi on your way down the stairs.

Cursing in your head, you're once again put in a tight spot as a result of your stupidity—mind too incredibly preoccupied that you didn’t notice someone colliding with you. Wobbling at your feet, you immediately lose balance at the collision and impact of someone's hard chest—sending you back until familiar hands were suddenly gripping your elbows, steadying you against him.

You could tell immediately who it is—drawing a deep breath as you slowly glance up at the man before you, eyes and vision shaky as you try to avoid meeting the inevitable. With much uncertainty, your eyes connect almost painfully, veins spiking at the face of the man you were so used to loving and running after. And he still looked as beautiful as you remember him to be.

The strong cool scent of his cologne whiffing your senses as he stares down at you, onyx eyes narrowing at you as the waves of his hair frames the sides of his face as captivating as it's always been.

He doesn't speak immediately, eyes taking in your appearance and the obvious distraught in your head. Along with that are the hesitations that play in his mind—of whether he was ready to face what he’s been avoiding for months. Perhaps it was finally time to let go of the attitude that holds him back from having you back beside him. 

The grip on your elbows tighten and loosen as the seconds pass, Sakusa grimacing to himself as he lets out a breath—cough forcing its way out of him, snapping out of his reverie.

"Omi—"

"Excuse me," he shakes his head, as if breaking out of a trance before letting go of your wrist as he advances up the stairs. Empty, overbearing feelings flooding your body at his refusal to settle whatever it is that's dampening your friendship.

You couldn’t even blame him—even if you tried. You couldn't imagine how you'd feel if he were to suddenly start dating a person you've never been in good terms with your whole life. You felt as if you ruined whatever trust and expectation Sakusa had for you. People would say he's being too much about it, that your choice in men shouldn't be that big of a bother to him as long as you're happy. But if anything, you doubt it was the fact that you were "dating" Suna. Rather, it's probably the way you left him in the dark—no communication of something that you knew would be a big deal to him. Your friendship with him has never been so shallow but you grew up bare with each other—every corner and detail about your lives known to one another, so whatever it was about Sakusa was justified in your head.

It pained you the way things turn out. You want nothing more than to stop him as he moves past you, rest in his arms as you restore the treasure you shared with him. But if it was more time he needed, you'd give it to him.

Walking along the road, the cold breeze that hits you brings you back to the way Sakusa touched your wrist. It felt so strong, firm, real. He was beside you then, encasing your skin so closely with yours and yet the absence of the feelings you were expecting to feel puts you in a loop of both disbelief and confusion.

There wasn't the electricity in your veins the same way you feel when Suna brushes his skin with yours. Not the butterflies and heat that spreads throughout your body when his eyes follow your movements. The sparks that never seem to end when he speaks to you not making even the slightest appearance with Sakusa. It was confusing, to say the least. Maybe you shouldn't even look for those feelings in a situation as tense as your encounter with him, but you know those are mere excuses. 

More than anything, it was terrifying. It wasn’t a phase, not a simple moment of confusion in your distorted feelings—not because you've gotten used to getting the affections from Suna when you couldn’t with Sakusa. Even if you tried to escape it, you knew it was genuine—every smile, blush, tears you’ve ever shed for a man who sees you as nothing but a tool he'd use for another woman, much like what he was to you just a few months ago.

Deep down, it has always been nagging at the back of your head—how you wished to be the one in his arms, texting him good mornings and goodnights forever, but you didn’t allow them a second thought. The convenience store trips stopped being a normal thing to you a while ago, holding every destination close to your heart as you let yourself feel special every time he's sliding in your bed using the spare key you've given him of your home—slowly nudging you awake as he asks if you want to come with him.

You always said yes, the butterflies inside you erupting when he would teasingly tell you how it almost feels like we're really dating, yeah? with a sly grin on his face.

He's right. It all felt too real. Now, you’re stuck in a delusion that you were two people in a normal relationship—free to love, free to get jealous. That he was yours as much as you were his.

Reentering the house after an hour of wandering around the town, you return to find an empty living room. Voices of the people you’re sharing the cabin with coming from a distance. With the sliding doors of the backyard slightly ajar, you slowly make your way outside—ignoring the hard beat of your chest.

The moment you step into the backyard, your eyes automatically find the very first person you wish to see. He has changed into a much fresher set of clothes—white shirt beneath one of his jackets with the ends of his hair dripping with wetness, a small detail that tells you he had just gotten out of the shower. Despite the way your heart breaks, you couldn’t help but gape at the way he looks—breathtaking, beautiful, perfect as one can be. It was almost cheesy, straight out of a description in a romance novel but it all felt so right with Suna. He was every single bit of the term beautiful personified.

Maybe that’s why it hurts so bad. Because you knew you wouldn't be able to have someone so beautiful in your arms in your life. You were simply the type of person who didn't deserve it. Sakusa was enough of an example and this time, you didn't want to hope any longer, didn't want to take any more chances.

It takes a lot for your attention to be taken off of Suna, but a figure beside him does the job way too quickly. If anyone were to ever be the perfect piece to stand beside him, it would probably be her—you could tell as you look at them from a distance. She's close to him, way too close, for your liking. It wasn’t that she was doing anything that threatens your position in his life, she wasn't even looking at him, but her mere existence pushes you three steps back every single time. Every single time you think you have a chance, she breaks them too quickly.

Yura.

Her eyes gleam the way you always remember it to,  giggling at something Atsumu said as she throws her head back—hair falling on Suna's shoulders at the proximity shared between them. His eyes follow her every movement, lashes flickering with every smile she sends on someone's way and an upturn on the corner of his lips whenever her eyes would so much as fly over to him in a split second. He doesn’t turn at the creak of the sliding doors as you tug it close, attention solely made for the woman beside him.

Omi is a little farther from the pair, helping Osamu as they both barbecue the meat in the grill on the corner. The rest of the group sits huddled together around one of the fire pits in a circle.

Only when you start sitting across from him did he notice your presence, head jerking a little at the shadow that falls in front of him—eyebrows slightly rising when he sees you. Yura and Sakusa have arrived a day earlier than you were expecting them to be, dread settling in your stomach as you wonder what that might mean for you and Suna. Just how much time do you have before he ends this show?

You ate your food in silence, his eyes stuck to yours in an intense stare but you ignore him—letting the chatter of the others fill your mind. Bokuto's loud voice along with Atsumu and Hinata's serve as a very good distraction and a great way for you to avoid questions on why you and Suna aren't acknowledging each other—a direct contrast to Sakusa who sits on Yura's other side, hand around her waist as she leans back and nuzzles on his neck.

"Is it just me or is there some weird tension around here?" Bokuto suddenly interrupts without much thought, shrugging his shoulders before pushing up meat with his chopsticks on his mouth—making his next words a bit gurgled, "You know, like at the party?"

"Bokuto-san," Akaashi whispers next to him, voice low like a warning.

"No, yeah, YN's been actin' weird since this morning, 'eh?" Atsumu agrees quickly, laughing a little at his statement before Osamu pinches his arm—making him yelp out in pain.

"Ignore him," Osamu looks at you apologetically, eyes knowing as the only witness of what happened the night before while Kageyama looks anywhere but you, tensing at the realization that whatever is about to go down probably wouldn't be too nice.

Suna looks back at you blankly, leg bouncing beside Yura's who also looks at you with wide eyes. It wasn’t rational, to say the least. It was immature of you, foolish even. It wasn’t your character. But the longer the silence stretches over the seconds, the longer he stares at you beside the woman he loves with a face devoid of emotions even while you continuously break inside, the more the feelings swell inside you—threatening to burst.

You felt angry. You knew it was more to yourself than him but perhaps your denial was stronger than your reason, you keep finding in him the faults that wouldn't even exist had you not involved feelings. There was nothing to blame him for. He played the part when he had to, stuck by your side for months. But now, all you can do is blame him—even if it was wrong, even if you shouldn't.

Gritting your teeth, you sigh gently before looking up to meet Suna's eyes directly—the scenes of last night playing in your mind clearly. "Sorry, it’s just—" you stop yourself, drawing a deep breath before saying firmly, "I hate it when people don’t think about their actions and risk something for those that aren't even worth it."

Now you have definitely ruined everything. Taking last night as a catalyst, you pretend as if it was the only thing wrong about this whole thing. Pretending and fooling both yourself and him that it’s what driving this anger instead of the feelings brewing inside you. The place to tell him what’s worth it or not isn't even yours to claim.

With furrowed brows, Atsumu presses the topic. “Ya mean Sunarin? Are ya two in the middle of a fight or somethin'?”

 The blonde-haired twin might have found it humorous, but you didn’t. Not in the slightest as Suna's eyes on you further grow in intensity, narrowing like he’s trying to think of what is causing the rift between you. Osamu lowly hisses at his twin, muttering a you never know when to shut up, do you? with a nudge to his side. The rest of the circle looks at you either with confused stares or doing all they can to avoid being involved.

"Is everything alright?" Yura asks sweetly, grip on Sakusa's arm tightening as she leans her head down to look at the expression on Suna's face, then yours. 

For some reason, the sweet tone of her voice always makes you want to gag. The kindness laced in every word she says is just another slap to your face on why everybody would always like her more than they like you. Your attempts to open your mouth, a reassurance threatening to fall from your lips as you try to lie your way around by saying you were joking gets interrupted as a voice you haven’t heard of the whole day cuts through the thick tension in the air.

"Ah," Suna humorlessly chuckles in realization, clicking his tongue with his head hung low before turning over to you. It seems his hunch was right. You did see what happened last night and it's what's causing this attitude. "Is that what this is about? You're jealous?" The mockery in his face is strong, determination to hurt each other clear in both of your words. "Didn't expect you'd be so possessive. Not sure how I feel about that, baby."

It takes a lot to aggravate Suna. Usually, he'd be someone who would rather brush such matters off. But somehow, with you, he feels as though he could burst right now and it still wouldn't be enough to contain whatever it is that burns inside him. He flinches when he thinks of you. He feels choked up, heart in his throat every single time he looks at what situation he has put both of you through. 

Your eyes narrow as it snaps up to meet his face, lips curling in faux amusement as your vision blurs in frustration. He, on the other hand, seems incredibly relaxed—not a trace of uncertainty as he tries to keep pushing your buttons, taunting you. This is the problem with Suna. He was much too determined to win every game both of you would ever play.

"Well, I'm sorry I seem to value communication and trust, Suna," you bite back sarcastically with a glare, words slipping through your teeth as you notice the way Osamu tenses in the corner of your eyes. "Didn't expect it'd be too much to ask of you."

He tips his head sideways at that, hair falling on his cheeks as he lifts a brow. You could almost hear both the heartbreak and regret before he could even open his mouth, "Weren’t you aware of this thing called, I don’t know YN, limits? The tone in his voice makes you swallow, emphasis heavy on the last words as he holds fluent eye contact with you. "Sometimes, people need to learn how to back off," he spits, tongue slipping past his teeth before slowly nodding at you.  "I think now’s a good time for you to practice, yeah?"

The words die in your mouth, the message of his words clear and delivered. He's telling you to fuck off about his business—your eyes stinging with a glare as his face gleams with annoyance. 

Everyone else in the circle looks around in confusion. Nobody daring to speak in fear of making things worse. Sakusa's eyes don't leave yours, watching every expression that crosses your face so much that it makes you want to run over to his arms for whatever comfort he has left to give. Yura looks between both you and Suna in worry, eyes laced with an expression you couldn’t exactly tell apart as your vision starts blurring.

Unable to bear the tension paired with the eyes of the people around you, you stand up abruptly—exiting the balcony as you make a beeline for your shared bedroom with Suna, not expecting he’d stand right up to follow, feet creating a sound heavier than what it originally sounds in your head as you mentally prepare. The moment he closes the door behind him, it's as if the emotions poured out of you. 

It was embarrassing. How you're breaking apart so messily for him. The glare you send his way is not nearly as threatening as your eyes mirror the pain behind it. 

"I wish I was as big of a dick as you to find a hot guy in a club and flirt with him in front of my supposed boyfriend and all of our friends, Suna. I really wish I was," you tell him, throat tightening as you try to hold back the tears that are threatening to spill. He definitely thinks you're crazy. You've lost your goddamn mind being angry at him like this, but what are you supposed to do? Cry for him and his nonexistent feelings for you? "But I'm not. Fake relationship or not, I actually care about us."

You were almost choking out the words, Suna's eyes turning into slits as he scoffs at you, "You fucking saw me with a woman once and really thought I was about to fuck her? Not everyone is like you."

The last line makes you flinch, a reminder of your first encounter with him a few months ago being thrown at you so painfully this time when you used to always tease each other about it just a few weeks prior. 

"Maybe you weren’t going to but I know what I saw and you know what the consequences that would bring for both of us. I'm not stupid, Suna," you take a step forward, the blood in your veins spiking by the second as your nerves feel like reaching their limit.

He mirrors your action, taking another taunting step at you as well, "Unlike you, I respect the feelings I have for Yura, YN," he bites back, words much harsher than you would've thought he was capable of. His voice isn't even rising, not like yours is, but it was slicing right through you as if it was. "I don't go throwing myself to just anybody," he makes a point, the next words to fall from his lips, something you've already anticipated, seeing the direction this conversation is going to—but that didn't make it all hurt any less. "Have you ever thought about how much you claim to love Sakusa and yet your first thought was to sleep with me?"

He should just shut the fuck up. Suna knows the words slipping out of his mouth were words he didn't mean. He never minded how you approached him, didn't care that you were throwing a fit over seeing him with another woman, he could so easily put an end to this. But he’s stubborn. He refuses to put out the fire and is instead adding fuel to it, burning you as much as it burns him. He might as well be out of his mind, he thinks, with how much this whole thing is fucking with his head—messing him up much more than he would ever like to admit.

If you weren’t so used to hiding your emotions, holding back the tears with how many times you've done it in Sakusa's presence, you were pretty sure you would have broken down by now—having reached your limit as you endure the truths coming out of Suna's mouth. He must have thought you were so easy and it was funny how you were getting mad at him for something you were so used to doing.

"At least I have self-respect, Suna," you offer your last rebuttal, words flowing out of you without much thought as you let your emotions carry the words for you, eyes stinging as you dig your nails into your palms. "I don't go around doing whatever the hell I want and make a fool out of myself for being so careless, so easily swayed, to the point that I couldn’t even consider how it would affect others." You were barely hearing the words coming out of your mouth, ears ringing so loudly in your head. The only thing you were certain of is the fact that you'd regret all of this the moment you calm down. 

Except right now, you couldn’t really care less.

His eyes turn dark, clearly not liking your choice of words as he speaks at you with much venomous tone—laughing darkly as he finds the right spot to hurt, the right buttons to push. He has always been able to read you so well, he's hardly ever wrong about anything when it comes to you. Maybe that’s why breaking your heart was so easy for him. He probably knew you were dancing right at the palm of his hands and he would take advantage of that.

"Self-respect?" He throws his head back, eyes narrow and firm as he says the final blow to you—a damage that made you release the choke you've been holding back. "I am not the one letting myself get dragged along like.. this by a man who doesn't even give a fucking damn about her. Especially when it’s so clear he's only using her to get the woman he really wants," he almost spits the words out, pain crossing his eyes so quickly that you were pretty sure you must have just imagined it. 

He was thrusting the truth right in front of you. Saying the words clear enough to snap you out of this delusion you've made up in your head—seriously believing you had a chance. That things were going to work out. A part of you almost wants to be thankful, that he’s making it clear before you have a chance to distort it all in your head again.

"How much self-respect do you really have to keep," he searches for the words, pausing as he swallows thickly at the look on your face. "hurting yourself like this on a guy who doesn’t even like you enough to take you seriously?"

Suna knows it hurts. Suna knows you're breaking as he watches the crumbling look on your face. He should've stopped a while ago. He should've told you about how desperately he was pushing that woman away as she tries getting with him relentlessly. How he was telling her to back off because he has you and you were around. He's a taken man albeit fake, staged. 

However, Suna also knows. The fact that you’re toying around the line he wouldn't dare to cross with you and you're so dangerously close. A little more push and you would’ve been in that danger zone, risking yourself for what he wasn’t sure he could protect you from. He thinks it'd be better for you to trip right now and if it meant pushing you back from that line, he found he'd do whatever it takes. To him, you meant much more than he’d care to admit. If the price he had to pay was to feed you with words he never meant as he watches you cry in front of him, he thinks so be it.

The sight in front of him drains the energy in him, legs giving out as he sits on the bed he left you alone with last night. Turning your head down, you slowly move from your position—no arguments left to give as the dryness in your throat would probably betray you anyway.

Your mistake was falling in love with him. Acting like a girlfriend he was supposed to stay loyal to and getting mad at the nonexistent commitment both of you made with each other. It was a pity, how you had to bring up things you knew he could counter you for and now you're left to pick the broken pieces of your heart as it falls beneath his feet.

In Suna's head, he thinks of a billion ways he could come up with an apology, racking his brain for whatever he can do to stop you from leaving—even while knowing he wanted this, he caused this. Because you were right, he was a fool, who couldn't handle situations like this well enough. He would always be carried by his emotions and he would always say the wrong things. 

As your fingers reach for the doorknob, a voice calls out to you—a small whisper of your name yet stern and firm. A determined promise and a desperate request as you get yet another rejection from the man you want.

"Don't fall in love."

END NOTE : Title of the chapter is from this song and the lyrics that go "I know that you don't but if I ask you if you love me, I hope you lie to me."

Everyone knew college was stressful. Deadlines nearly every single week, assignments and essays, not to mention attending classes brought a whole new wave of anxieties for students every single day. Sometimes that stress was either doubled or relieved by having a partner for a project or two. Luckily for you, you and your old high school classmate Katsuki Bakugou were paired up for a project for one of your Quirk Law classes. It was a research project, one that required a forty slide presentation. You were headed on your way to Katsuki’s dorm today to work on it at the time you agreed upon: 5pm. Then you two would study together for upcoming midterms. It was all planned out down to a tee. So at around 3:50pm, Katsuki knew he had time. He figured he needed a break from his Rescue Tactics Indoors II class, otherwise his brain would begin oozing from his ears.

Pushing aside his overpriced textbook, he rolled his shoulders back, hearing the cracks of his stiff muscles while he stretched at his desk. He let out a sigh, propping his chin up on the palm of his hand as he scrolled mindlessly through his socials. Mina had posted a Throwback Thursday post, an old one of him and you back in your freshman year of college. His nose twitched in annoyance as he recalled the parties, more specifically Denki Kaminari’s birthday party, where he had gotten so drunk that the walls melted and bent before him. Katsuki’s expression changed however, as he swiped through the collection of photos to stumble across an image of you and him. Have you always worn dresses that tight? You practically had your ass out from how short your garment had been cut, tits threatening to spill out of your low hanging neckline. Not only that, but Katsuki had an arm slung around your shoulder. His smile was stretched wide due in part to the alcohol in his system, but also because you were standing next to him. You were laughing at something Mina had said behind the camera, your hand tossed against the slightly unbuttoned shirt Katsuki had worn that night. Your fingers had brushed against his toned chest and he scoffed at the thought. Slowly but surely, memories of that party flooded back to Katsuki in waves.

They were mostly recounts from Kirishima and Mina, but apparently you two had made out in front of everyone that night. He swiped left again, swallowing dryly as he saw just that. Your manicured fingers were wrapped tight around his party shirt, tongues in a deadly dance of want and desperation for each other. Katsuki’s eyes grew as he noticed that the photo hadn’t cut out the part where he had been kneading your ass through that skimpy dress of yours. Immediately, Katsuki went to Mina’s dms demanding to take down the photo. And she did, thank god, but not without sending Katsuki more than ten photos of you and him making out at the party. He clenched his jaw, anger and a low desire plaguing his conscience. Glancing to the top left corner of his phone, he noted the time. 4:10pm.

He had time.

Saving the photos to his gallery, he pushed his chair away from his desk to have some fucking breathing room. His eyes flitted down to his sweats and as he expected, there was a tent forming. He groaned, wiping the sweat from his palms off on his pant leg before languidly beginning to palm himself through his clothes. His breaths quickened, chest stuttering as he looked to his phone displaying the photos of you and him. There’s a faint recollection in the back of his head of how you taste. Like cherries from your glossy lips, like vodka from the shots you took off of Denki earlier that evening, how you moaned into his mouth the night you had drunkenly kissed.

Katsuki tugged the waistband of his sweats down, allowing his previously constrained cock to breathe. It slapped against his stomach, heavy and leaking. Shit, he didn’t remember being this horny at the beginning of this. Spitting into his palm, he lubed up his dick as best as he could on short notice. His eyelids drooped as he swiped through the pictures like a filmstrip, a montage of all the best moments he had with you at that party. You grinding on his lap, you whispering dirty ideas you wanted to do with him later, you, you, you…

Katsuki squeezed his aching shaft, fisting his cock as precum dribbled down his slippery head. His face was an uncanny shade of crimson, a testament to how horny he was all for a few old pictures of the two of you. “Y/n.” He swore he barely recognized his voice from how breathless and needy it was. He continued to pump his cock, the only thoughts replaying in his mind were perverted fantasies of you bouncing on his dick hard enough to hear the slap of your ass cheeks against his abs.

Tapping the screen of his phone twice to zoom in, he admired your curves with pursed lips. Fuck, you really were gorgeous. Everything about you radiated a sinful nature he could never put his tongue on. You were tempting him, licking flames up his body with such intensity that made him shiver. He cursed, thumb drifting over his slit as he hissed. Fuck you for being as ravishing as you were that night, fuck you for making him feel so goddamn needy for your-

“Bakugou, I was about to text you but I remembered you were studying today, so I figured it would be okay if I came a bit...” your words trailed off. You blinked rapidly in an attempt to process the scene unfolding before you. Katsuki Bakugou, holding his dick in his hand, face on fire with a deep blush, his other free hand secure around his phone with- was that a picture of you from your freshman year of college? There was a beat of silence, Katsuki’s uneven breathing the only sound in the room aside from the low drawl of the ceiling fan over both of your heads. You gaped at him, tongue darting out to wet your lips upon realizing his hand hadn’t stopped moving. If anything, you saw his hand flex around his cock, further tightening his grip as you stood right in front of him.

“What the fuck-”

“What?” he beat you to the punch, his lips twitching into a devilish smile, “Don’t like what you see?” His confidence knocked the air out of you, your bewildered attitude showing true on your features. Your body feels warm, searing beneath his gaze. “Excuse me?” you squeaked out, overcome with both curiosity and a hint of lust for the ash blond.

“Are you gonna fucking help me or not?” His pride was refusing him to be flustered, not when he was this feverish for you. He needed the upper hand, he needed control over this situation. And it seemed by how you were shifting your weight from side to side, that it was happening just as he wanted. Who were you to refuse such an offer from Katsuki Bakugou?

And that’s how you ended up here, nestled between thick, muscled thighs with your hand wrapped around his throbbing cock. He had you spit over his dick, his entire shaft gleaming in all its glory as it stood to attention in your grasp. The flash of his camera burned your eyes as you suckled on his crown, hand continuously jerking his cock while he ravenously watched you through the screen. The guttural groan that escaped him was nothing short of music to your ears, your thighs tensing as the coils of heat continued to build and knot between your legs.

“Mm. Keep going like that, take it. All the way in now, like a good little slut,” Katsuki instructed, his voice slicing through the heavy atmosphere of desire. The words make you whimper, enveloping his sensitive head in vibrations while you lick around his slit. A large hand cupped your face, forcing you to make eye contact with the ash blond behind the camera. His black tank top truly had no confines over him, since it was tight enough to see the outlines of his pecs and ripped torso. Katsuki sure worked hard to maintain his appearance, but you knew he had the strength to back those muscles up. The thought of him completely dominating you, holding you with strong arms and pinning you down with his body made your pussy even more wet with your slick than it already was. Even from how you were on your knees, Katsuki possessed an unspoken will over you. You wanted to please him, make him feel good, make him have no good reason not to give you everything he had to offer.

You took your lips off of his head with a little ‘pop’, eyes wide and expectant as a string of drool connected your bottom lip to the tip of his cock. Bakugou’s smile grew, making sure your face was completely in frame and in focus. “Dirty girl,” he hummed, thumb tracing the apple of your cheek before guiding your lips toward his twitching cock. You slowly kissed the vein on the side of it, mumbling out four words:

“Your dirty girl, daddy.”

The moment the words left your mouth, Katsuki let out a low, gravelly moan. It was as if a switch inside him had flipped. Without warning, he’s pulling you off the floor and sitting you down in his desk chair instead. He’s a bit rough, his vision clouded by the sheer want to fuck you until you were screaming his name, until his name was the only word your pretty little brain could recall. He abandoned his phone and instead had his hands drop to the armrests of his desk chair, encasing your body as he towered over you. Your skirt was immediately shucked up your waist and Katsuki’s hands went to work on your panties. He ripped them off completely, tossing them aside without a care as to where they went. He gazed down at you with fervour, licking his lips at the sight of your dripping cunt.

“Who’s pussy is this?” he coaxes with a grin, teeth shining. His hand slipped between your thighs, his index and middle finger tracing up and down your slit. Goosebumps erupted across your skin, your thighs instinctively closing around his hand. Your face bloomed with warmth, eyes darting away from his cocky demeanour, “Baku—”

Your body jolted as a firm smack was delivered to your sensitive pussy, a wet, lewd sound meeting your ears as he did. It made a high pitched, whiny moan be pulled out from your throat.

Fuck.

“Try again,” he ordered, tone demanding and almost condescending. His lips ghosted yours yet he never had any intention of moving close enough to seal the gap between the two of you. You whimpered, eyes meeting the dark red irises that were staring straight through you.

“‘S yours, daddy.”

“Now that’s a good fuckin’ girl.”

His lips found yours, teeth tugging at your bottom lip hard enough to make the warmth in your stomach double. The liquid heat had been building ever since you walked in, and you were fairly certain that you weren’t going to last much longer.

He hooked your knees over his elbows, biceps flexing as the muscles in his arms supported your full weight. He picked you up with such ease, your arms flying around his neck as you squeal, gasping at how little effort that took him. He was a pro-hero in training, of course he had practiced lifting people up no matter their body type or size. Either way, it didn’t matter to him. He thought you looked rather angelic clinging onto him regardless. He wasn’t even breaking a sweat with his hands spreading your cheeks, grunting as he adjusted you in his arms. He slid slowly into your slick cunt inch by suffocating inch, your walls fluttering and enclosing around his throbbing cock. Katsuki’s breathing was unsteady, eyes watching your expression intently in hopes that this new position would give you as much pleasure as it was giving him. His ego was running rapant from how you were holding onto him for dear life. You were practically shaking in his grasp, mouth open in an ‘o’ shape as all you could do was gape at how deep he reaches within you. You were keening, eyes hazed with lust and nails digging crescents into his shoulder blades hard enough to make him hiss.

When you finally catch your breath and adjust to his size, you give him a curt nod as an indication for him to start moving. Slowly, he lifted you up off his cock until his head kissed your entrance before allowing gravity to do most of the work. This position had his cock nudging your cervix and it made the knot in the pit of your stomach squeeze further, threatening to snap with every loud smack of his balls echoing through his dorm room. He pistoned into you like that, reaching deeper to rearrange your insides. It was like your entire body was being engulfed with pleasure and fire. He took in your face, how it scrunched in pleasure, hair sticking to your face as you mumble out how much you want to cum, how much you need to cum.

“Fuckin’ tight just for daddy, hah?” he cooed to you, “You wanna cum all over my cock like a little slut? You were watching me from the door jerking off for you. Dirty fuckin’ girl. Who’s making you feel good? Say it. Spit it out.”

“You!” you moaned, your head feeling light from the way the veins on the side of his cock rubbed your walls, “You, daddy. Please let me cum. I w- wanna cum!”

“I can’t hear you,” Katsuki rumbled, eyes steeled before you unmoving and unwilling to give you permission just yet. “Please!” you begged, “I’m a dirty girl. I’m your dirty girl, daddy! Please let me cum!” You were too engrossed in your pleasure to have any semblance of shame. Katsuki grinned. That’s what he wanted to hear. He let out a tiny ‘tch’ before uttering out, “Then cum, slut.”

Without another word, you let out a final wanton moan, gushing around him as the liquid heat finally expels from your body. Your orgasm hits you in waves, your body quivering with each new sensation as you hold Katsuki’s cock within your cunt. Your nails leave angry red marks along Katsuki’s shoulders, ultimately sending him hurtling towards his own release.

Cum dripped down his twitching cock, your chest heaving as your legs feel like jelly. Tingles shot down your spine as Katsuki pumped rope after rope of his sticky cum well enough to paint your inner walls white. He helped you ride out your high, delivering harsh bitemarks to your neck to leave a mural of hickeys claiming you as his. The smile he gives you is cocky, prideful, and arrogant. He placed you back down on his desk chair, your thighs still going through the aftershocks of your high. Reaching for his phone, he tapped the app icon for his camera. He knelt down, chuckling as your fingers slid between your legs to spread your lower lips for him. His cum seeped out past your slit, leaking down to your puckered asshole.

“There we go. Aren’t you daddy’s good girl, hm?”

Tiredly, you nodded.

“‘M daddy’s good girl.”

twitchcon :: cc!multiple x reader

fluff , platonic , gender neutral ! some mcyt headcanons if you were to attend twitchcon w them

cc’s included in order: tommyinnit , tubbo , ranboo , wilbur soot , philza , technoblade

cw: kinda lengthy for the minors (i think), not as much for the hags LMAO /hj

tommyinnit

this man is so excited to be at his first twitchcon & being able to hang out with all his best friends makes it a hundred times better

when he isn’t at a panel or doing meet & greets, he’s dragging you everywhere to see the whole convention center (clingyinnit)

he is just so at awe despite this not being his first convention to attend

you’d be surprised he gets tired pretty quickly & stops over to the partner lounge

you both rest for a bit against a wall in a pretty packed hallway despite it being an exclusive area to twitch partners

every time a famous streamer walks by he will yell it out and record it then vlog your reaction, even if they’re surrounded with bodyguards & trying to get to another place quickly

he’d zoom in his camera to their face at a horrible angle and be like

“oh my god it is THE ninja. ninja famous fortnite player, HELLO.”

but he gets completely ignored

then the camera pans out to you, still really zoomed in that the capture is blurry

“ninjainnit?”

“EH?”

tommy is so confused, forgetting the bit ninja did on his twitter where he renamed himself ‘ninjainnit’ for a split second

okay tommy isn’t that athletic but he will chase you and the rest of your group down a hallway if he had to

he’d probably find a toy gun from the artist alley/seller booths and shoot you and wilbur with it

but if tommy stumbles across any of the dream team, it’s about to be minecraft manhunt but irl

and he will def play his stream music while walking or smth when he’s bored (or trying to jump dream & sapnap)

** DO DO DO DO MANHUNT MUSIC **

oh my god,, now thinking about it he’s probably the one to open like random doors of empty rooms and steal stuff while you film him

like he will take a random empty glass, a bunch of pens, a freebie t-shirt, everything he sees he takes with him and you’re just panic

“tommy we’re literally not supposed to be here, and i’m stuck here filming you. it’s surely a felony in action”

“well, it’s their fault for leaving the doors open! plus this is great content. who’s the dirty crime boy now, HM?”

you’d tell wilbur about this and he’d scold tommy and threaten him with the same pen tommy stole

tommy probably would also drag you some weird event happening outside twitchcon along with tubbo and ranboo

“pokimane is giving out free pizza to everyone if we go to this one restaurant down the street!”

“we are literally gonna get bombarded. have you forgot you’re like three of twitch’s top streamers? i’d rather pay for all of our meals than try getting free pizza from pokimane against all her other fans”

“DEAL! let’s go to five guys then!”

you unfortunately end up paying for all 3 of their meals and picking on their food instead of buying your own

even with all of them making way more money than you, they still happen to be cheapskates

OR tommy will end up getting a burrito from a taco truck, immediately making a mess of himself, then proceed to complain how messy the food is to eat despite knowing what he was getting himself into before even ordering

“shit my clothes are all ruined now!”

“well that’s your fault you got a burrito, as if it’s your first time having one”

“i mean the food is good, i’m not complaining about that but i don’t think it’s that good that it’s worth costing my red and white shirt, im just saying”

tubbo

same with tommy, he is so excited

i don’t know why but i imagine him overpacking his suitcase and you making fun of him for it

anyway tubbo has his irl backpack on and streaming EVERYTHING

probably spends a lot of time at a bunch of different booths, checking out all the pointless gadgets he could buy for his stream

you’re the one to stop him from doing so

“TUBBO IT’S LITERALLY OVER TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS, STOP. DONT GET IT.”

“WHY NOT?? IT WILL BE COOL FOR MY STREAM AND I WILL USE IT EVERYDAY”

“okay theoretically speaking, how the hell are you going to even bring it home? which—let me remind you—is across the country for you and not to mention the giant ocean separating america and the uk”

“free ship-pang!!!”

“i hate to break it to you tubbo but there is no way you can get free shipping on a FIVE FOOT PC. it’s nearly as tall as you! what are you even gonna do on it, hack the government???”

the arguments are all lighthearted but eventually you give in and let him splurge over a thousand dollars in different devices he claimed he “needed”

i could honestly see him visiting the beaches in san diego and going for a swim or even renting out a boat to use for a bit :D

also he’d bring benson along with him and taking a bunch of scenic photos with it in them

i have a feeling he’s the type to schedule a spontaneous meet & greet because he was bored & gets in trouble for causing a mob in a certain part of the convention

he’s like “oh god, i did not expect this many of the bois to show up AHAHAH oops”

tubbo would def pull a lilypichu and bring his melodica or ukulele and play themes while following random people/cosplayers

at the end of the day, you’d find his bag just stuffed with crap he either got for free or bought in the convention

“how did you get all that stuff? i was with you all day??? and it’s only the first day of the convention, hello?? it looks like you’ve been collecting as if twitchcon has went on for a week already!”

“HA i have my ways, do not underestimate my powers”

lani would probably tag along for the vacation honestly

like whenever someone comes up to her giving her gifts/asking for pics, you and tubbo would tease her about how famous she is

and i dunno but something about tubbo just gives me this amusement park energy and going to legoland and spending the whole day there since it’s near by and because he can

ranboo

he is like a beacon in a sea of people, that’s it .

i honestly just see him causing as much chaos as the other two

ranboo would probably like take someone’s camera whether if they’re streaming or if it’s for the vlog, hold it up high, and point the camera directly above someone’s face

it did not matter how tall you were and if you had platform shoes on, ranboo was a skyscraper next to you

“HAHAH this is how i see you from this height, this is funny”

then he shows you the vid of the recording of him getting like an aerial view of your face

like you see your nose and all your pores and just overall a bad angle to be captured in

“OH GOD RANBOO DELETE THAT, ITS HORRIFIC”

i dunno why but i feel like he’d jump scare every person that was cosplaying as his minecraft character from behind for some reason

“BOO!”

“ranboo i’m not even remotely dressed as your skin—”

“don’t worry i’m practicing it’s fineee”

“you’re like the height of 2 people combined, i think you will be fine as is. you even intimidated the security at the front”

i feel like if he had his own panel he’d like pull up some undertale song in the middle of it and scare all the people in the crowd

“lore but in real life”

probably would get some matching keepsake with you from artist alley/the booths!

i could imagine like a cute keychain or smth :D

i feel like he’s the type to like randomly volunteer as a participant for those mini events in a booth thinking it would be funny but regrets it the moment he’s on stage

after introductions the presenter is like “okay ranboo, you will be given a random meme prompt above your head you won’t be able to see until after and you will have to make a random face to compliment it!”

and you can just tell by his facial expression he’s just thinking

oh god what have i gotten myself into

what is this game? who came up with this idea?

you’d laugh at him the whole time, even after he’s off the stage and finished with that small fiasco

“that was horrible. never again.”

“AHAHAH IT LOOKED SO AWKWARD YOU DID GREAT”

“I CROSSED MY EYES AND PUFFED MY CHEEKS BECAUSE I COULDNT THINK OF ANY OTHER FACIAL EXPRESSION. THE PROMPT ENDING UP BEING ‘WHEN TWITTER CANCELS YOU FOR USING PLASTIC STRAWS.’ AND WHEN I SAW WHAT IT WAS—LITERALLY WHAT KIND OF GAME–”

“I GOT PICTURES AND EVERYTHING ITS PERFECT AHAHAHAH”

wilbur soot

honestly with wilbur it’s slightly more chill

he already experienced twitchcon before so he’s just glad to see his friends again after so long

insists that you explore the convention yourself rather than sticking with him the whole time but you do anyway!

wilbur would probably have like a mini concert and gets you front row seats with the rest of the group

but that doesn’t mean before it that you’re not helping him set up

“y/n please– my amp is so heavy, i can carry it”

“don’t worry! i’m strong” :D

and musically talented or not, he will probably bring you and the rest of his friends up to stage to just vibe and sing a bunch of random acoustic songs

it’s not like some big concert hall stage,, i imagine more like a casual thing w a slightly higher platform from the ground yk?

after spending a long day at the convention he’d also bring everyone across the city to la jolla or smth !

you’d all probably have dinner there and chill, watching the pretty sunset

“this place is really pretty but oh my god im gonna lose my breath hiking up this stupid hill, please slow down”

and wilbur is like ??? because he’s completely fine with his long legs and everything

“just walk faster”

“no, you walk slower”

AHAHAH and for context traversing through la jolla by walking around the town is a bit hard since it’s basically on a bunch of hills (walking up from the beach to a restaurant actually is actually sm work, trust me ive been there)

wilbur honestly doesn’t spend that much time in the actual convention center, he’s probably sightseeing a bit of san diego with you instead

but i could imagine him staying at the tabletop games area playing dnd or smth

“c’mon y/n, come join!”

“uhh i’m not sure, i’m not the best at roleplay and...”

“it’s fine don’t worry!”

he’d pull you in with him and end up enjoying yourself even if it was your first time

and if you’re of age, you’d be wilbur’s +1 at the twitch partner party and make sure mans doesn’t too drunk

if it’s not too late in the night, you two would chill at the beach after the party

it’s just a nice, calming moment after all the loud music mixed with hundreds of conversations at the party

also something about like taking polaroids pictures with wilbur just seems to go hand in hand for me

i’m not sure why but you will be taking lots of pics with wilbur for sure (not necessarily you both in the photo, but of sceneries as well while you’re together!)

philza

literally a dad on vacation with his children, it doesn’t matter how old you are

need sunscreen? surprisingly has it

want a snack? probably has a small granola bar somewhere in his bag

but same with wilbur, he’s more chill like this isn’t his first time at twitchcon

omg he’d def bring you to the artist alley and just buy a bunch of fanart and stuff tho

“oh wow look phil, someone made a giant poster of the dream smp and shit!”

“holy shit that’s so good what the fuck!”

and he’s like rushing to that artist’s stall to buy a poster or print

idk why but phil seems like the person to know where he’s going all over the convention center

he probably had a copy of the directory map but yk

you just have trouble reading it bc all the signs seem to be misleading to you

nothing really crazy screams out to me of what phil would do at twitchcon besides like go to a few events, spend a bunch of time w his friends, etc

HOWEVER i could see him wasting a lot of his time at the gaming area and testing new games that are currently on the works of being developed

like “woah y/n, this vr game is sick, you should try it out!”

ngl i feel like phil would plan a visit to disneyland for everyone, like he gets the tickets and everything but once you’re at the park it’s free reign, y’all go everywhere with not much of a plan

the minors would try to cheap out phil and pay less than the others even though everyone else fully paid phil back and everything LMAO

ok but if he’s feeling nice, phil will buy everyone cotton candy/pretzels :D

and if you’re not hungry, he’d at least get you a mickey balloon

HE WILL HAVE MATCHING MICKEY EARS WITH MUMZA YES .

ALSO STAYING FOR THE FIREWORKS THOUGH OMG

just in general, best idea phil had for taking everyone to disneyland :D

technoblade

surprisingly techno is really calm despite this being like one of his first conventions

but when he finally settles in and gets comfortable, he’s showing the same energy

if you’re playfully yelling, he will yell back

however there’s still those awkward moments that are unavoidable

idk why but something about him makes me think that if you feel tired and want to go back to your hotel room, he’d go with you just to make sure you get there safe

he probably also needs a break from being around everyone else for a moment too LMAO

i could also see him searching far and wide in the artist alley for fanart of himself AHAHAH

walking around with him in the convention consists of someone yelling “BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD” every 5 minutes but you don’t really mind

something about him makes me think he’ll be forced into playing minecraft twitch rivals along with the rest of sbi or smth

and he’s like “oh god, i’m going to be on stage? and people will see my face while i play minecraft?”

“i’m sure it will be fun!”

“i mean i like being competitive and feeding my ego, but i’m not that desperate.. well”

do i imagine techno getting easily tired of being surrounded by a bunch of people and just going back to his hotel room with phil and watching some anime with him? yes

and will you watch even if you have no idea what’s going on? also yes

i feel like after a while of you guys hanging out in techno’s room, the rest of the gang will just slowly join you guys

like eventually everyone is there; you, techno, phil, wilbur, niki, tommy, tubbo, ranboo, etc

and techno is like “wha– where did you guys come from?” because his room is basically packed

and niki could be like “oh we can go if you want!”

then techno just insists that she’s fine “but who let the child get in?” clearly implying tommy’s presence

“OI!!”

eventually techno gives in with the company and someone gets a bunch of board games to play from the front desk

lots of yelling and laughing for sure

when it becomes late at night, techno is like half conscious, you’re on your phone, wilbur is staring out the window & enjoying the night view, tommy is passed out on the couch from tiredness, tubbo & ranboo is still wide awake quietly talking, and phil & niki are helping clean up the giant mess

eventually everyone brings themselves to go back to their own room except tommy who won’t budge

you give techno a look and he immediately understands what you were thinking

he rushes to the bathroom to fill up two cups with ice cold water and handed one to you

“on three?”

“okay.. one”

“two”

“three!”

then both of you pour the water on the poor child’s face

he jolts awake and saying a string of curses

“what the fuck techno? y/n too?”

“get out” is the only think techno says that before tommy rushes out with his stuff and you leave right after

a/n: i honestly can’t wait until conventions open up again though,, phil and ranboo were talking about vidcon earlier and omg.

also i kinda want to take in tommy requests but i’m not sure??? it would be both cc! and c! x gn!reader for sure tho. i love writing him to bits but who knows, maybe i’ll only stick to my ideas,, or not. send in a tommy x reader request, might do it, might not, but he’s my fav cc if you can’t tell so! :D (i dunno if i will keep it strictly platonic, but unrequited crushes and stuff are fun to write hehe,,)

edit: let’s hope i fixed all the grammar mistakes LMAO we love writing late at night :) /s /hj

soapy titty pics (sexting w/ inumaki)

a/n: here u go shawty i hope you enjoy ur toge smut @brandmeyelena <3.

toge inumaki x f!reader

tags/warnings: sexting, mild edging, male masturbation

w/c: 1.2k

it’s 2:00 am and toge’s still awake again.

staying up late and thinking of you — your hair, your eyes, the small curve at the base of your back. then his mind starts to wonder to other aspects of your beautiful body — your thighs, your tits, the way your perfect lips would look wrapped around his cock.

it’s been almost a month since he’s seen you and it’s been the most excruciating month of his life. he was tired and bitter that he had to be in another country fighting curses while you were back home without him. he missed pulling pranks on the other students and hearing your laugh ring out through the dorms — but he also missed the feeling of his dick in your pretty pussy. toge’s mind was bouncing from one extreme to the other but it was fitting, because he missed every aspect of you.

as thoughts of you continued to cloud his mind, his hand crept down to the growing bulge in his silky pajama pants. he pressed a firm hand over his budding erection, slowly palming it up and down.

fuck — the things he would do to have your head bobbing between his thighs right now.

his phone emitted a bright light in his dark room, a soft vibration buzzing from the device. he almost didn’t check it, because there was no way anyone of importance was contacting him at this hour. it was probably just an email, or a new follower on twitter, and he was kind of fucking busy living in his sexual fantasies of you.

but then it buzzed again, and then a third time, and a fourth time too. curiosity getting the best of him, he decided his aching member could wait another minute while he checked the notifications.

his cock twitched underneath the loose fabric, his mouth practically salivating as he stared as his phone. they were pictures from you, dimly lit snapshots of your round, perky tits covered in suds of soap. the pictures were accompanied by a single message, which read:

‘some soapy titty pics for u love,, wish u were here with me rn’

how ironic that both of you were up at this obscene hour just thinking of each other. you really were his soulmate — but he could focus on the sappy shit later, for now all he cared to focus on was how fucking hot you were.

‘yeah i’d titty fuck the hell out of those

how’d you know i was thinking about you right now?’

he quickly typed out his responses before his hand trailed back down to his throbbing erection. but this time he gently pushed the waistband of his pants down his thighs and let his cock spring free from its previous containment. he sucked a sharp breath through his teeth as he brushed his fingers over the sensitive skin.

he pumped a few lazy strokes up his length while he scrolled through the pictures you sent, pinching his phone so he could zoom in on your soapy, glistening breasts. your timing was truly impeccable — you have no idea how much he needed these.

‘lucky guess? you’re always thinking about me

and i’d let you do more than just titty fuck me

i can think of a couple other things that’d be even better’

your messages vibrate through his phone and send another rush of blood straight to his dick. he lifted his hand and collected some saliva in his mouth before spitting it into his palm. he massaged the sticky substance into his cock, his head falling back onto his pillow while he texted you back with his other hand.

‘obviously,, ur tits are just the warm-up

and then we’d move on to your mouth, right? with your hands tied behind your back just how you like them?’

he could practically imagine you down there, strands of spit hanging from the corners of your swollen lips while your tongue flicked over the head of his member. you’d be staring up at him with biggest eyes too, and they’d be glistening with a hint of mischief as you continued to tease him.

toge desperately fucked himself into his hand until the point where he was about to come, and then let his cock fall helplessly from his fingers. he was going to drag this out for as long as he could, edging himself in between each of your messages. but he could barely contain himself when the next thread came rolling through:

‘of course babe

i’d cover your thighs in love marks and then lather your dick with my tongue

hot, sticky saliva dripping from my chin while you shove it down my throat as hard as you want’

you were ruining this poor boy, a couple small beads of sweat forming above his brow. he was fiercely bucking his hips into his hand now, but it still wasn’t what he needed — it’s still wasn’t you.

but it was good enough, and he pushed himself right to the edge again before quickly letting go. his fingers twitched and trembled while they flurried across the screen:

‘fuck

then you can relax and i’ll do the work

slide my dick inside your wet pussy and bend you over the edge of the bed

i need you so bad it’s been so long’

toge’s hand wrapped around his shaft again, pumping faster and more frantic than he’d been before. his eyes were squeezed shut and he could practically feel the walls of your cunt around his cock. he’s picturing you riding you him, hearing the soft slapping noise of your ass hitting his thighs with every bounce. your hair is falling around your face, messy stands in front of your eyes as they roll back into your head. you look so pretty, so perfect on his cock, so-

‘two more weeks toge

two more weeks until i’m moaning and whimpering in your ears

gasping for air and clawing at the sheets while you take me from behind

i want you to wreck me when you finally get home’

he could almost hear the illusion of your delicate moans, the way they roll off your tongue and right into his yearning ears. and he could almost see your face contorting in overwhelming pleasure while he grinds his hips into yours.

clusters of the quietest whimpers slipped through his lips while he squirmed and stretched out his legs. he was intoxicated with thoughts of your body on his, your name glued to his lips while strings of white flew onto his bare chest. he milked out every last drop of his seed, the sticky white substance covering his torso and dripping down his hand.

he dropped his phone to the bed, the only sound in the silent room being his heavy, breathless pants. it was satisfying, doing this while he texted you, but it still didn’t amount to the real thing. what he really fucking needed was for this goddamn mission to end early so he could come home to you.

CARRD TUTORIAL: HOW TO MAKE A SOMEWHAT FANCY-LOOKING CARRD, STEP BY STEP. (LONG)

Alright, so I will take this step for step, so that hopefully even those who have never used Carrd before can follow this tutorial. This means that this will be a lengthy tutorial. You can always save your carrd while you’re in the middle of making it and continue working on it later if you find it takes a lot of time. I will show you how at the beginning of this tutorial!

This is mainly focused for single-muse pages, but I will add a little tips at the very bottom for multimuse pages. I will go into detail about a lot (but not all) functions on Carrd and how to implement them onto your own Carrd, but if you want to create the same template as the finished product for this as pictured above, take note of when I mention “This is the one I will be using for this template.” That’s what you want to follow.

Also the blockquoted parts are just a more detailed explanation of everything. If you simply want to create a template without understanding all the features of Carrd, you can skip reading these.

STEP 1. CREATE A CARRD ACCOUNT.

Basically, the first thing you want to do is to make an actual carrd account. Go to the website ‘carrd.co’, and click ‘choose a starting point’. There will be a few default carrd templates to choose between, but the main thing you want to do, is click the ‘blank canvas’ option (as seen in the image above) because we’re going to make this entirely from scratch!

STEP 2. THE CARRD EDITOR.

Now, once you are on the blank canvas, you will see a page like the one in the first image below (This is your work area, and you can click directly on this when you have stuff on it, to pull up the editor for each individual thing. For example, if you click directly on the “Nothing here yet! :)” text, the text editor will show up on the left side of the screen.) You will also see a little bar at the top right with a few different buttons on it, as seen zoomed in on the second image below.

QUICK RUNDOWN OF THE BUTTONS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT:

“+” BUTTON: This is where you will find all the different elements you can add to your carrd. We will be using this button a lot, and I will go more into detail about each element as we get further into the tutorial. “CIRCULAR ARROW POINTING COUNTER-CLOCKWISE”: Basically the undo button. “CIRCULAR ARROW POINTING CLOCKWISE”: Redo button. “RECTANGULAR BUTTON/MOBILE BUTTON”: This button lets you view your carrd in mobile version. This button will change appearance when you click on it, to resemble a laptop-screen, and clicking it again will return you to how your carrd will look on a laptop. “FLOPPY DISK BUTTON”: This button is called “Publish this site” when you hover over it, and you can click this button to publish your carrd, or “save as an offline draft.” (I recommend saving it as an offline draft regularly, so you can leave it and come back to it later to finish it!) “TRIPLE HORIZONTAL LINE BUTTON”: This button is called “More actions” when you hover over it, and provides the same publish / save as draft option, a “start over” option, a “background” option that opens up the ability to change background color, a “page” option, that allows you to edit the page (will be highlighted when you click on it), as well as “Documentation” “Instructions”, and “Dashboard”, the latter which will return you to the carrd dashboard, and with a free account, you can add two more carrds.

STEP 3. SETTING UP THE PAGE.

Now we want to set up the page. Basically, the “Page” is where we will be putting all of our things into. Text, images, tabs for rules, about pages, etc., will all be put inside this page. Keeping this in mind, it’s good to decide whether you want to have a fullscreen page, or a contained page, kind of like container themes on Tumblr. This is the most tedious part of the tutorial, and you likely will feel like you aren’t getting anywhere, but once you power through this step, things will quickly become a lot more fun! So... Let’s get through it together, shall we?

At the bar in the top right corner, click the triple horizontal line button, and then “Background” and the adjustment box in the image below will pop up at the left side of the screen. You will also see a green-blue border become visible around the edges of the screen. This indicates which area you are editing.

THE STYLE SECTION:

There is a dropdown menu that by default says “Color”. If you click this, there are a few more options that comes up. The ones that are free to use is “Color”, “Gradient”, and “Image”. The other two, “Video” and “Slideshow” you have to buy a Carrd pro membership for.

COLOR (THIS IS THE ONE WE WILL USE FOR THIS TUTORIAL): If you want one simple color as your Carrd’s background.

GRADIENT: Is if you want two colors in a gradient, which really becomes more easy to understand by just playing around with the adjustment options provided when you click it (It will not be used for this tutorial.)

IMAGE: If you want to use an image as your background. By clicking the “Upload” button, you can add your image. Under “Position”, you have a drop-down menu, where you can choose the image’s position. Unless you have a background that has symmetrical patterns, like say, squares with black, red, black, red, you might also want to use the “Tile” adjustment and use the “Off” option, so the image doesn’t repeat itself, neither horizontally nor vertically. If you do this, it might also be good to change the “Transparency color” (Which is the background color behind the image) to the same color as the background image. For the “Size” option, I would recommend either “Fill” or “Default”, to keep the size of the image. You can also add an overlay or pattern on top of your background image, which is better to just mess around with on your own.

We are going to simply use the “Color” one for this template. Click the #EDEDED text, and choose a background color. I am going to type in #000000 for this template, but this is where you’re allowed to have fun and choose whatever colors you prefer. If you don’t know the actual hex-code for the color you want, you can always click the square button next to the hex-code and pick the color from there.

Now, if you chose a black background like me, you might no longer see the text “Nothing here yet :)”. That’s okay, we’re getting to that now.

Click that same, triple horizontal line button in the top right bar as before, but this time click “Page” instead of “Background”, and then you will see the adjustment box (image below) pop up at the left side of the screen.

Let’s go ahead and change the “Style” part from “Default” to “Box”. You will see the page changes color to white, and you can now see the “Nothing here yet! :)” text again, while the background remains black, like the image below.

If you scroll down on the Page adjustment bar on the left, with all the adjustment options, you will see that there’s quite a lot of different adjustments you can do. I won’t go into all of them in this tutorial, but here’s some explanations for a lot of them in the blockquote below. If you’re only interested in creating the template you don’t need to read all this. We will only use the ‘Width’, ‘Background’ and temporarily the “border” adjustment for this template,.

POSITION: Here, you can change the position of the page on the Carrd. We use the default “centered” for this tutorial, but you can mess around with this as you want!

WIDTH: Adjusts the width of the page. We will change the width to 58 in this tutorial, but in some cases, it might be preferrable to have it all the way up to 100 (if you want a carrd that fills the whole screen with texts and/or images) or any other width, really, depending on the aesthetic you’re going for. Basically, the less width you give it, the more “container theme” aesthetic, it gets.

PADDING: How much space you want between the page and the content inside the page. (texts, images, etc.)

CORNER ROUNDING: If you want the page to have rounded corners, you can use the slider to adjust how round the corners should be.

SIZE: Sets the base size for all the elements. I would not mess around with this unless you know what you’re doing.

ALIGNMENT: Sets the alignment of all the content within the page. (Text, images etc.)

BACKGROUND: Here you can change the background color of just the page, remove the background color, or give it a gradient background.

BORDER: If you want a border around your page, you can do this here the same way you added a background color to the page. When you add a color to the border, two options will show up, one for the width of the border, and one for the style of the border. We will mess around with this in one of the steps.

Now that we have the page as a box, let’s temporarily add a border to the page. Scroll down to the “Border" option, and add in a border color that is visibly different than the background and the page background. I will be using #23B5B8 for this.

Now, if you’ve done this, the Carrd should look a little like the image below, perhaps with different colors if you have been bold.

Next, I want to make the page color to be the same color as the background color, but before that, since the text is black, I will change the text color of the ‘Nothing here yet! :)’ so the text doesn’t become black on black with the background. To do this, I simply click on the text, and then on the left side, you will see another type of adjustment box appear, that looks like the image below.

In this first panel, you can change the text itself. But to change the color, we will need to go to the Paintbrush button (below)

and another adjustment box will appear, that looks like the image below.

For now, we’re just gonna change the “Color” at the very top from #000000 to #c7227a (Don’t worry, we will go back and change this later. This is just to avoid it blending in with any backgrounds or whatever as we change things up along the way)

Now let’s click the triple horizontal line button again, and go back to “Page”, scroll down and change the Background color to #000000.

Now, your Carrd should look like this.

Now, the final thing I want to do to set up this page is to make the “Width” a little bigger to fit more things into it. I’m going to scroll up to the top, and change the “Width” from 40, to 58. Now, if you just click on the background area to remove the left adjustment bar, you Carrd should look like the image below.

STEP FOUR. ADDING A STATS PAGE.

OKAY! So, we got through the rough part! Phew! Feel free to take a few minutes break, before we continue!

Alright. First thing’s first. Let’s get rid off the ‘Nothing here yet! :)”. Just click on it, and click on the little trashcan button, right next to the ‘Done’ button.

Now comes the fun part! We’re going to add things and really build up our Carrd with information and all that good stuff! Click the ‘+’ button at the top right corner, and you will see a menu open up below, looking like the image below.

Let’s start by making a navigation, so you can switch between an “About / Muses” page, a “Rules” page, “Verses” page, etc.  A button is a good way to do this, so let’s start by adding a button by clicking on (you guessed it!) “Buttons” You will now see something like the image below pop up.

Lets say we want four buttons to start with. One for the about page, one for the rules page, one for verses and one for links / tags.

So, let’s just click the ‘Add’ button, four times! But wait! As you click the Add button, you will see the image below showing up.

This is actually a very important part of button-making. This is where you add the title to the button, but also the link to your button, that you will be taken to when you click the button.

For now, let’s LABEL the first button “ABOUT” and add the URL “#about” as seen in the image below. (We will leave the Background and Hover color empty for now, as there is a simpler way to give all the buttons the same color and hover color in a single step rather than doing it for each individual one! Though of course, if you want different colored buttons, you can go ahead and do this for the buttons here, like this.)

Now you can scroll down and add three more buttons, label them “RULES” with the URL “#rules”, label “VERSES” with the URL “#verses” and label “MAP” with the URL “#map”. Click DONE! and you will see your Carrd looks like the image below.

Alright, so we have the buttons up. But they look a bit boring, don’t they?

Click on the buttons again in the work area to pull the button editor back up, and click the paintbrush button as seen below!

Now an editor area will show up that looks like the image below.

Let’s give the buttons some color, shall we? Add in #C7227A (or whatever color you’d like) in the “Background” hex-code, and #B01969, to the “Hover” hex-code, to give a slight change of color when hovering over a button. Your buttons should now look a little something like the image below.

If you still think they look a little plain, we can go to the “Style” section, where it says “Solid”, and change it to “Outline”. And you will see the buttons change so the background is black, with a pink border around them. Let’s scroll down on the adjustment page, until we get to “Thickness”, which is the thickness of the border, and change it from “1″ to “5″. Now your buttons should look like the image below!

If you want to add an extra little fun effect, if you can click the “Play” button seen in the first image below, and another adjustment page will open up for the buttons, seen in the second image.

Now, on the “Buttons: On Hover” part, if you change “Fade In”, to “Tilt Left”, when you hover over a button, they will animate by tilting to the left, as seen in the image below.

If you still have the adjustment page up, click the “Done” button, because that’s enough about buttons for now! Now, let’s make the actual pages that the buttons will link to!

Click the ‘+’ button at the top right menu again, and this time, you want to click on ‘#control’

Because remember how we made the URL to the buttons be #about, #rules, #verses, and #map? Now, with this “#control”, we are basically adding a separation between the page that will show up when people open up your Carrd, and the different pages they will be taken to when they click on the buttons.

Now you will see something like the image below being added to your workspace

And on the left side, an adjustment page will open that looks like the image below.

The only thing we really want to focus on here, is the “Name” section. Lets change it from “section01″ to “about”, like in the image below, and then click ‘Done’

Now, let’s go back to our favorite button, the ‘+’ button in the top right corner and add something else!

Click on the ‘Container’ one this time, and let’s go one more step and click straight on the Paintbrush button!

And an adjustment page will open up that looks like the image below

Lets scroll all the way down to “Border” and give the border some color. I will give it the “#C7227A” color, like the buttons, and I will also change the width to “9″ and the “Style” to “Dotted”.

Now, for now, we’re going to focus on this being a single muse carrd. Multimuses, if you have a lot of muses, and want fancy about pages for all of them, you’re going to need to make multiple Carrd accounts because unless you have Carrd PRO, you can only add a certain number of things to your carrd. I will get into this more later, how you can do this the easiest way! ANYWAY! Now if you click ‘Done’, your Carrd should look like the image below.

As you can see, you can both see the “Home page” with the buttons, the “#about” line, and the dotted container with the text “Empty” inside. If you had saved your Carrd now, only the part with the buttons would show up when you went to the Carrd’s url, and if you clicked the “About” button, you would get to the empty container because of the “#about” control, but if you clicked any of the other buttons, they wouldn’t work.

Anyway, let’s add a STATS sheet to your container. Click inside the container on the work area, and then click that lovely ‘+’ button again! Then click the “Table” button, as seen below!

Now as seen in the image below, this might look a little messy at first sight, but it will quickly turn into a nice stats sheet.

So, let’s take a closer look at the adjustment page.

Basically, what I personally do to make a neat-looking stats sheet, is that I first remove all the text in the “Headings” section.

In the “Rows” section, I do the same, but this is where I will add in the stats for the muses. As it currently stands in the "Rows” box before you remove the text, each line vertical:

(”Neuromancer William Gibson 1984 0-441-56956-0″

Snow Crash) 

Represents each Horizontal section on the table seen in the image above that again. Basically, you add a line by hitting “SHIFT + ENTER”. If you just hit enter, you will get a new horizontal line below the first one. So basically “Snow Crash” as seen above, is the second horizontal line after “Neuromancer” all the way up to “0-441-56965-0)

So, as a quick copy-paste, you can delete the text there, and add in the one below:

NAME: musename

AGE: agehere

SPECIES: specieshere

GENDER: pronounshere

OCCUPATION: occupationhere

HEIGHT: heighthere

HAIR: colorhere

EYES: colorhere

FACECLAIM: fchere

And it will look a little something like the image below.

Or, without the adjustment editor, like the image below.

But let’s say you want to add an image, or some more text, like a short bio, next to it, and don’t want the stats to take up as much space in the container.

Click on the dotted border so the “Container” adjustment comes up. Then click the dotted rectangle button as seen below.

And change the “Default” to “Columns”, and if you want, yIfou can also click on “50% (Left) and change it to 40% to make the stats take up even a little less space, as seen in the image below.

Now your Carrd’s about section should look something like the image below.

Now, you can add something to the “Empty” space on the right by clicking... you guessed it. The famous “+” button!  

Now, only your imagination can stop you from what you can add here. If you want an image, you click on “Image” and “upload”, if you want some links, maybe you want to use the “button” feature to give them that extra popping look, or just “Links” for a more simple, text look kind of links. Maybe you want both an image, and some links underneath the image? Maybe you want to add a short bio (I recommend biographies to be short if you want it on the same page as your stats, and you’re using a “Columns” container. If you have a long bio, I recommend changing the “about” page to a “stats” page, and follow the steps at the beginning to add an extra button on the home page for “biography”, or keep the “Container” on “Default” and put the biography underneath the stats.)

Lets say you want an image next to the stats, so click on “Image” and on the button below (if it’s not already chosen)

Then on  “Upload” and find the image you want to upload, and you will come to a page looking a lot like the image below, only with the image you chose instead of the default bird.

Instead of manually cropping it, you can simply click the button in the top left corner, pictured below

Until the button looks like pictured below, and the “Crop grid” is gone.

Then, click “Accept” in the top right corner. Now your image might appear below the container. That is fine. Just click and drag it into the “Empty” space inside the container. Now the Carrd’s about section might look something like pictured below.

My image didn’t stretch all the way down to the bottom of the stats text, so in this case, one might want to add some buttons with some links to headcanons etc, or a “Text” with a quote.

In fact, let’s add a quote to make it look a little neater! Click the ‘+’ button again, and ‘Text’, and if the text appears below the container, drag it into the container, below the picture. Click the ‘A’ button in the top left, and change “Text” to whatever quote you want!

Then, click the painbrush button next to the ‘A’ button, Click the dropdown menu for “Font” and choose whatever font you like. I picked “Aguafina script” and then change the “Size” so that the text is approximately as large as the width of the image. Now your Carrd may look like this. Now this looks like a nearly finished stats page to me!

This is of course where I realize I’m a dumbass and am too far into the tutorial to start over from scratch to fix my mistake, so stick with me here. This is a stats page, right? But there’s really no room for a biography here in the container without it taking up too much space on one side or the other, but we want a biography section for our carrd, too!

So lets go back up to the “Home page” where the buttons are for a second. A reminder if you’ve forgotten how they look like:

Click on the buttons, anywhere on them is fine, and in the adjustment area on the left, add another button like in the tutorial earlier, change the LABEL to “STATS” and the URL to “#stats”.

Click and drag the button in the Adjustment area to be at the very top, above the “about” button like in the image below.

Alright, now look back onto the work area, and click the “control” section that reads “#about” as pictured below

And in the adjustment area, change “#about” to “#stats” like in the image below.

OKAY PHEW! CRISIS AVERTED! Now your Carrd should look as in the image below.

Now the only thing left is to add some buttons to make sure people can navigate away from this page onto some of the other pages. But this is actually really simple. Just click on the buttons at the very top of your carrd again, and in the adjustment page showing up on the left, you want to click the left bottom button looking like the image below:

Now you have TWO sets of the same buttons, with the same names, linking to the same things. Simply click and drag one of them below the “#stats” control, like pictured below.

Now, with that done, your Carrd’s stats page should look a little something like the image below, and with that, it looks pretty finished to me! Now maybe you want to have the “NAME:, AGE: SPECIES:,” etc. text and the “musename, agehere, specieshere” text to have two different colors. Maybe you want the “NAME, AGE, SPECIES”, etc text to be bold or italicized, or bold and italicized!

There’s a way you can do this as well. So I will add an extra step here to explain that in blockquotes for those interested. 

Click on the table, where the “NAME, AGE” etc text is, and click on the button pictured below to get to where you added in the text.

Now, replace that text with the text in bold italicized below:

[**NAME:**]{#c7227a} musename

[**AGE:**]{#c7227a} agehere

[**SPECIES:**]{#c7227a} specieshere

[**GENDER:**]{#c7227a} pronounshere

[**OCCUPATION:**]{#c7227a} occupationhere

[**HEIGHT:**]{#c7227a} heighthere

[**HAIR:**]{#c7227a} colorhere

[**EYES:**]{#c7227a} colorhere

[**FACECLAIM:**]{#c7227a} fchere

Now click the paintbrush button pictured below

And under “Color” change the hex-code, let’s say to “#DDDDDD” Now your stats page should look a little something like the image below

STEP FIVE. ADDING A BIOGRAPHY PAGE.

Now with the stats done, let’s add another page. Click the “+” button we are getting to love, and on the “#control” and like before, we want this “#control” below everything we’ve just made, and we want to rename it from “#section02″ to “#about”, like the image below.

Now, lets add another container, by clicking the ‘+’ button again and “Container”. As you can see, the container is now in the same style as the last container you made. This goes for anything you add, it will be in the same style as the same thing you added last.

Now let’s go right ahead and click the ‘+’ button again and click ‘text’ this time! As you can see, the text is likely going to be in the same style as the quote you put under the image. Let’s go ahead and change that!

For my template, I want the font to be “Amiri”, and I want the size to be “1″, and the Color to be “#DDDDDD”, as pictured below.

I also want to scroll down and change the alignment from “Centered” to “Justify”, like so:

Now, in the adjustment page on the left, you can click the ‘A’ button, and you can add your biography in the text box. I will simply add some lorem ipsum text to fill it in, like in the image below.

Now, maybe you want to colorize some of the text, and bold and italicize it, etc. Formatting like so is very simply explained underneath the text editor, like this:

**Bold** *Italics* or _Italics_ ***Bold italics**** __Underline__   (two _’s on each side) [Link text](LINKURL) ~~Strikethrough~~ ==Highlight== [Color text]{#colorcode}

The highlighting one can be kinda cool, so I’ll show you how you can use this by adding it to the beginning of my lorem ipsum, like the image below

Which currently looks like the image below on the carrd.

However!! When we add ==TEXT== we can change the background of that highlighted text. If you now go on the text adjustment editor on the left, on the paintbrush, you will see the adjustment page has gotten two new options, as seen below.

“Highlight” and two hex-color-code boxes. The left one changes the color of the text itself, and the right one, changes the color of the background of the text. So if we add #FFFFF to the left, and #C7227A to the right, the text on the workspace will look like the image below!

Now, this in itself looks very boring, so maybe we want to add a title into the top of the container with the dotted border. Click our trusty ‘+’ and then ‘Text’. Now you might not see the text itself, so simply click “Done” and you should see it. Drag it up into the container, above the biography. Now you can go into the text editor, and you’re probably figuring this out yourself by now, but on the ‘A’ button, you change the actual text, so let’s maybe change it to “Biography.”, and then on the paintbrush button, you can change the font, size, color, etc.

I will change the color to “#C7227A”, the font to ‘Courier New’, the size to ‘1.625′, the alignment to ‘center’ and the appearance to ‘uppercase’.

Now, you can turn the container into a column container, and have it be two or three or four or more columns, and add more text etc to each column as you want, though be careful not to add too much, as a free carrd only has limited amounts of things you can add. 

For this template, I will be keeping the biography section simplistic, so now all I want to do, is to go and duplicate my buttons like we did earlier with the stats section, and add the duplicated button to the about section instead, and it should look a little something like this.

STEP SIX. RULES AND VERSES.

Basically, do the same for the rules page and verses page as the about page and/or stats page. REMEMBER TO ADD THE “#CONTROL” OR YOUR BUTTONS WON’T WORK!! Maybe you want to take use of the highlighted text to add titles to each of your rules and/or verses, and use a columned container like in the stats page. Maybe it ends up looking a little something like pictured below.

STEP SEVEN. THE NAVIGATIONS / LINKS PAGE!

Now, for the maps page, I will use our trusty ‘+’ for all these steps. First, I will add the “#control”. Remember to set the Label as “MAP” and the URL as “#map”. Next I will add a container, and add two columns to it, that are 50% each.

Inside the container on the left side, I will add a “Text” which I will align “centered”, and change the text to say “IN CHARACTER TAGS”. Next, I will add a “Button”, and then in the adjustment page for the button, I will click the “Add” six times, so that we have six buttons (they will likely appear three and three next to each other.) I will name each of these links whatever they should link to (E.G. ‘HEADCANONS’, ‘VISAGE’ ETC), and then copypaste the actual link you want it to link it to. (e.g.  https://blogurl.tumblr.com/tagged/taghere )

I will then do the same again, but the “Text” will say “OOC TAGS” instead.

I will then add an image and drag it into the right side of the container.

At last, I go back and duplicate the buttons with the ‘stats, about, rules, verses, map’ from one of the above pages, and drag it down to the maps page. You might end up with something looking akin to the image below.

Now, at last, we have all the pages set up... Except, maybe the “HOME PAGE” looks a little boring in comparison. So let’s go back up to the beginning, and add an image, just for the heck of it, and maybe some text underneath, like the image below!

Now, all that remains is going back and changing whatever colors you wanna change, etc. For me, I just wanted to change the border color of the actual page to “#C7227A” instead of “#23B5B8″. 

Once all that is said and done, let’s click the button pictured below so we can publish our carrd!

Type in something in the required fields, like below, and make sure you have checked the ‘Published to a .carrd.co URL’. 

Scroll down until you see the below.

Choose your url that isn’t taken, then publish your carrd! Make sure to go look at it and check to make sure all the buttons etc are working and that nothing is looking wonky! Now your carrd is all done! :D

BONUS FOR MULTIMUSES!!

Now, if you’re a multimuse blog, you can follow pretty much the same steps as above, but you might want to make individual accounts for each muse, so they can each have their own, individual carrd about page, considering if you have a lot of muses, you likely won’t be able to add fancy pages for all of them before running out of space!

Now, there’s a few tips and tricks to adding more accounts. ONE) you need to have TWO gmails. See, you can use the same email-trick that a lot of people use to make multipe blogs on tumblr under the same url by adding a ‘+NAME’ to the end of your email, like so: email+MUSENAME@gmail.com however, carrd can be a bit wonky and sometimes will only let you do this if you already have an existing account under an email WITHOUT that trick. that’s where the second gmail account comes in. You want to make your carrd account with that secondary gmail, then you want to go into the carrd dashboard, and change your account settings, and change that to the trick email  email+MUSENAME@gmail.com instead.

You can also use sessionbox when you’re on the carrd dashboard and add new sessionbox sessions to keep track of your carrds and keep them signed in.

As for linking to all your muses on your “MAIN CARRD.”, i recommend having your rules, muses list page, and navigation page on the main carrd, and the stats, verses, about page and perhaps also a mains page for each individual muse’s carrd.

You can list and link to each individual muse carrd by using buttons, like the image below

OR you can use a table, in which case, i recommend copy-pasting text in the blockquote below in the “Headings” section:

MUSE. NAME. LINK TO CARRD. FANDOM. STATUS. PLOTS OR WINGED?

And the blockquoted text below in the ‘Rows’ section (just copy and paste it into the rows as many times as you need to add more muses, and change the url where it says ‘CARDURLHERE’ to the url for your muse’s carrd)

==MUSE NAME.== [==***CARRD.***==](https://CARDURLHERE.carrd.co/) fandom here. activity here preference here.

==MUSE NAME.== [==***CARRD.***==](https://CARDURLHERE.carrd.co/) fandom here. activity here preference here.

And it will look a little something like this

That’s about all I have for this tutorial. Hope it helped! :D

Sorry if that seems dark, I’m still working with this cheap smartphone after my Google Pixel’s battery warped. Feel free to zoom in on the crystals, I purposely hid their meanings. I will give you a bit of info about you as a person, and give you a list of the (potential) careers that suit you. Of course, there could be more careers as along as it fits the theme of your personality/characteristics/skills.

Use your intuition to pick your pile(s), and then scroll down!

PILE 1

These certainly synchronized well without trying, and although I’m not counting all the BTS “Be” photocards, I did actually shuffle them anyway when I used them to cover up your crystal meaning; so I find it very interesting and helpful to see that J-Hope fell out for you.

As a person, I would sense that you’re someone who’s been through pain, but also healed or is currently on that journey toward healing. And, you might say, well that’s vague and everyone goes through that; however, 1: not everyone chooses to heal 2. not everyone chooses to heal and then help, some people continue the cycle of abuse/pain inflicted onto them 3. this is the kind of healing/pain that results in a life purpose in which some function or medium, action, or work that revolves around helping others. Not just being kind to others out of compassion and empathy, though that’s probably a given, I mean, your profession will revolve around this desire to heal, help, teach.

I feel like “release”, “pain”, “heal” are the keywords that would surround any career you choose, whether it’s to heal yourself, others, or both.

There’s a lot of greens here, with some red, purple, indigo: Heart, root, crown, third-eye chakra. Your intuition is strong, your empathy and compassion are strong, root would indicate the healing process and grounding through that or through some type of activity, crown is that spiritual/greater purpose aspect.

Which also fits in with this Self oracle; this card reads like the idea of the Higher Self, except it’s still referring to this incarnation’s soul, accepting of all parts, separate from the ego, understanding its place in the universe, so there would have to be some type of spiritual awakening that’s occurred for you or will. There’s a sense of awareness about how spiritual things work, which may also be an element in your ability and even DESIRE to do healing work.

For you, I feel you would be excellent in any career involving helping, healing, teaching, opening up people’s minds/hearts to something greater than themselves, to also assist them in getting on their life purpose path.

Careers: Spiritual healer (tarot, reiki, mediumship, etc...); teacher/professor; therapist;psychologist/psychiatrist; doctor/nurse/physical therapist; special needs; social worker; counselor; any type of rehabilitation; acupuncture; writer; journalist; comedian; religious positions; publishing; podcasts; or any other career in which “storytelling” is used to heal or heal yourself by expressing your emotions/thoughts, like screenplays, music, poetry, artist, designer, etc...

There’s definitely a strong focus here on using “words” to heal, so it’s definitely a call to all the artists out there or anyone who can weave writing/storytelling into their healing arts. Doctors may heal, but storytelling isn’t really part of that, so I definitely sense this is more toward people who feel comfortable using words/stories to express a healing element. Pictures count as words, too. Any type of physical manifestation of a feeling or vision is a reflection of thoughts.

There could even be opportunities for a career as a lawyer, judge, or even some type of other criminal/law component-job. Politics is also possible.

But, these are only if you have the intention of helping/healing/making a positive change in the community/world.

Photography, modeling... I see that in “the self” card...  there’s a sense of taking people who are “fragmented” and putting them back together again.

Really a career in which your intentions are coming from your heart in a way that there’s a conscious understanding that we (the collective) are connected and with that mindset, there’s a call to do good because that’s why we’re here.

My point is there’s something bigger drawing you/pushing you toward a healing career. It’s more than just “that sounds fun” or “my parents would like me to become that.” Several figures in these cards are touching their heart space and also there’s books, letters, etc... You get the idea.

I also feel like you’re not a sullen person in the sense that you hold a lot of anger or resentment, that you may even on the surface appear jolly, happy, have a good sense of humor and in private perhaps you are more quiet, reflective.

But, very much so I do also see a career in which interacting with others, especially one-on-one literally or as in one-on-one: your book and the reader; your song and the listener; your food and the diner, etc...

PILE 2

Sadly, I wrote out a very long and thorough description for Pile 2, but it got eaten by Tumblr. Maybe that’s part of the message, though, as this was the only Pile where - besides the careers - there was a very extensive personal message for you. I’ll try to bring back as much detail as the first time, if I can remember.

Here are some common themes for this pile: There is the sense that you have warrior energy but at the same time, you’ve built armor around yourself. To be honest, the fact you have Jimin as your photocard that fell out is really what shaped my opinion of the pile (no need to ask why, just trust me, and I like Jimin very much). The Destroyer card, which... has a couple of meanings. It can be about self-sabotage and it’s also about using objects, success, money, accomplishments as a symbol of recognition or success - not to realize that material things are temporary and don’t necessarily hold that type of value.

I do think this is a pile that weighs success against such things or has in the past. The destroyer reminded me of the wolf from Neverending story. It is the power behind the “Nothing” which tries to, basically, destroy that universe/world.

When I think about this, i see it as if... say some type of wound or incident happened when you were younger and it left a type of metaphorical scar on your soul, that scar kind of necrofied (that’s a word right) and turned into a black marble, and then all of this scar tissue formed around it. And that feels like a metaphor for all the armor imagery I’m seeing in these cards. This is something that has influenced your attitude in a lot of ways, particularly about yourself. I sense some issues with insecurity and comparing yourself to others, in terms of success or what you have, looks - but all of this comparison stems from that insecurity, lack of self-love. I’m not saying you aren’t confident, in fact I feel like this is the energy of an ambitious boss, but that’s tied into a desire to prove yourself, which, as I said, comes from this black marble wound you picked up somewhere. In fact, if it’s not this lifetime I was wondering if it’s something passed on from a previous lifetime(s), because it’s a very DEEP wound and I do sense that it’s... so much more than like - feeling neglected or abandoned as a kid or being bullied. It feels spiritually deeper and engrained.

Anyway, that’s what’s pushed you in the direction of wanting to achieve a certain lifestyle that reflects your success, your worth, your value, etc...

That type of ambition (when I first wrote your description) made me feel you’d be excellent in business, jobs where there’s some type of competition that keeps you excited and (not bored), that may change up frequently, where there’s a clear way of climbing the career ladder. I see you as potential CEOs, leaders of startups, PR moguls, social media masters. People who want a job in which they have some sense of power and authority. Not to do wicked things (although it’s possible you could be slightly overbearing, perhaps this is a pile for a lot of fire signs as it has that type of creative, fiery, independent, thirsty energy).

You’d be someone quite driven, so any field where you can be badass or have people perceive that you are. I don’t see this as being strictly - like... a practical job, no regular 9 to 5 stuff, not stuck in a boxy office. I see offices with views, in a cool building, working in modern offices if not for yourself, starting your own creative business ventures or fresh ventures with a lot of risk, exciting travel jobs. You could be flight attendants. I mean it does have the energy of superstar actors, singers, musicians.... there’s that Leo feeling of someone who wants attention and has this hungry ambition where they’d probably do a fair amount to be on top - just keep in mind that things come and go, that things aren’t always permanent and that things don’t determine your true value. What does - in theory - is who you are as a person, how you feel about yourself, are you doing it for you or the approval of others. And I’m not shaming, that’s quite normal, but that’s really a drive of the ego and it’s okay to think and reflect on why it is you feel so motivated to prove yourself when you don’t have to prove anything to anyone except maybe yourself.

So, again - apply that to jobs where you can show off. I do see you as not faking this. You’re very capable as like... project managers, you’d make good agents for people, real estate agents, radio personalities, the kind of people who drive to LA in a car with nothing to become an actor or something, you could be a fancy concierge in a well known hotel in Paris... bc you attach “prestige” to your job title. 

You get the idea... on the other hand since it seems I’ve been brow-beating you over materialism and attachment to things and titles - there’s also a sense that you want to protect those who cannot protect themselves. I see this in the nature card. Not to get all therapist on you, but perhaps bc you couldn’t protect yourself or just bc it’s right, there’s a sense of wanting to protect the “weak.” I’m not saying you’re a super social justice warrior though you may be, in fact I sense more of a disdain for people in general, so this is only about 1. young children 2. animals 3. the planet. You’re not looking out for the average person, just those that can’t defend themselves, so you may also be a leader in anything to do with protecting the environment, this could include being like a vegan chef or working for green peace, working as a diplomat, being a caretaker of young children or the infirm, it is possible you could be a nurse (specifically one who treats the old and young), or a lawyer - like environmental lawyer or one of those lawyers who would defend the immigrant children who got separated from their parents after crossing from Mexico to the US... you know there’s passion and ambition BUT you have a soft spot when people are being picked on. I mean you may pick on average people bc ur like bro we’re equal, i’ll take you on - but kids and animals, even if  you don’t LIKE kids, you wouldn’t stand for someone to mistreat them.

And for some of you you may have already been through this process of removing self sabotaging behavior or talk where you told yourself you weren’t good enough, etc... but it was probably part of your cycle. I feel like the destroyer was that sense of self-sabotage and darkness within you that drives you forward. 7 of swords has that “bitter” feeling to it here and also looks like, well, a stegosaurus, lol, like another instance of you surrounding yourself with these blades so no one will get near you and you’re still carrying them and the root is something “hidden.” But fool and child nature show that you aren’t a bad person, that you’re just reacting to some wound where you felt left behind or neglected or unappreciated. And that left this destroyer black hole, but the crystal wants you to learn self love, to treasure that more than success and such. I mean, I want you to BE successful, and you will be bc you’re capable and brave and ambitious and smart and clever and organized BUT I don’t want you to feel you have to prove yourself through high salaries and nice condos and the best wines and designer clothes - like treat yourself as you deserve it but status isn’t indicative of worth... you’re great as you are, nothing to prove. Love yourself.

Pile 3

On the one hand, I think pile three could have careers in any kind of mystical realm, if there’s also an aspect of the job where you’re doing, say, tarot out on the open via blog, youtube, etsy. There are plenty of cards to suggest talents in a spiritual job with agape, shaman, and magician. But with the crystal card and networker (and magician again), I also think there is an online aspect. All those cards are about communication, communication networks, etc...

By that default, this is a pile where you’d excel in the communication fields: publishing, radio broadcast, marketing, journalism, PR. Shamans can also be doctors, politicians, etc... (see pile 1). But this pile doesn’t necessarily have a “healer” aspect to it. This is like a. mystical skills 2. networking skills 3. communication skills. You don’t have to have spiritual skills, though. This is definitely not a tarot reader pile only, I don’t even feel that’s an aspect of it other than by default. This is more “communications” jobs.

Also, singer pops out. Poet. But, again, this is if you actually share your music to an online community or go to physical locations and share it. I also don’t feel this is a behind the scenes working in the music industry either.

What I see in the Shaman card, too, is a sense of learning, a sense of understanding your own darkness, a sense of being some sort of spiritual conduit between heaven and earth. We could say some artistic talents are just divine given, but unlike Pile 1, it’s not about healing, it’s about... purpose?

Agape is interesting because it’s... finding wonder in something physical... but it’s a divine wonder. If you were to see the grand canyon or some other really amazing physical/earth... landscape... and in that moment you feel this sort of divine wonder and humility. You might also really like Yuri on Ice xD

The Jenna card reminds me a bit of a nun, too. So there are several... spiritual but also religious themes within these cards...  there’s also a repeating theme about surrender and moving on, letting go.

Besides all communication jobs and online spiritual gigs, I see things like poet, singer, actor, specifically if any of you are studying opera. I see spiritual or religious leaders. I actually have a friend who worked in intense data programming whatever on the East Coast and such and such happened, she became a nun and moved to Scotland or something. 

I also see a teacher, but it would be religion, philosophy, history. Librarian. Someone who does research on said topics. Create documentaries, especially about nature or the human story, sociology. There’s also a sense of action. Like, you do something, you create something. It’s not sitting at a desk or being told what to do, I don’t feel this is any kind of service work.

I guess what I see it as is someone who “spreads a gospel.” And you can say gospel is anything that feels like a “truth.” And that truth is also spread through a “large” community or system via you or what you do. 

Documentary work feels right on the money, though. But like I said, it would have to be about anything that brings a sense of wonder. I feel like you’re more comfortable as an observer, behind a camera. I guess in that way you’re not really a youtube tarot reader... there’s humility to this pile, it’s not a show off pile. If you are in the spotlight it’s... not about you. I think it’ll be a job where you see or display something to do with the bigger picture. The bigger world. And there’s a sense of objectivity to it instead of trying to push a particular narrative, which is why nature documentaries or photography, still paintings, come to mind.

Poems and songs because they’re very short and capture a moment or single feeling... I included the cards that hid the crystal meaning and so far they’ve actually been spot on. I shuffled the bts photocards like I would oracles, and JK is actually someone who’s done documentary/video/photography work, he also draws, writes, sings. But he’s an introvert and he said once about filmwork that he liked doing videos bc a photo sometimes needs a description but a film, people get what you’re trying to say (in theory). He’s a Virgo by the way, with a Libra venus and a leo/virgo cusped moon, I think. And in the Magician card, it’s ruled by Mercury (which rules Gemini/virgo) The other card is a swords/air sign. My point being that if you need to know further if this is your pile, this is an earth-air pile. Air is about communication, earth is about... the earth, haha, grounding. So communication plus earth equals... nature documentaries.

There’s nature imagery, there’s a sense of stillness, self discovery, spiritual learning, humility, and... wonder. Also, moving forward, letting go.

In terms of working for others alone, I’m drawn more toward alone or in your job working for others you have a lot of independence to do your thing. 

Well, you get the idea, and let me look for any personal messages that seem important, as well. Jenna’s face reminds me of Billie Eilish. Oh, I also wanted to say I thought you might be a bit of a job nomad. You may go through several jobs before you find the ideal one or perhaps you simply move around bc you do freelance videography or whatever form of... work.

I’m mostly seeing emphasis on the throat chakra and using it in your career, how your throat chakra has to do with your alignment/purpose. Like I said, you tend to be a close observer of people or the things around you, more so than the average person. You probably like to people watch or go outside and watch the trees or clouds or sky, you have a fascination with nature or natural monuments. I want to say you may like to wear white, but I think the white outfits in two of these cards is more about... the “purity” tied to these moments of wonder/inspiration. I think in terms of “moving on” from anything, that nature is a healer for you. You’re wise, you have the ability to teach but also be a student.

I’m suddenly getting Death vibes so perhaps some of you had a near death experience or a very striking spiritual transformation. Or some experience that kind of “spooked” you. 

And oh also possibly an interest in space, astronomy, astrology as that would also fall under a natural phenomenon that induces wonder. But I also see the sea/ocean, as well. Marine biology, diving, astronomer, astronaut, mountain climber, haha. The agape card makes me think of something jungkook mentioned recently about how he relaxes in a dark room, a single candle on, listening to music, and that’s also a bit of a vibe for this pile. You probably meditate, do yoga, etc... and you can “purify” your soul through throat chakra activities... and... yeah. That felt repetitive, but... there are probably a lot of jobs I don’t know about that encompass this sort of feeling, so I wanted to be over-thorough. Hopefully Tumblr won’t delete this like it did Pile 2 when I went to save draft!

PILE 4

Not that poet hasn’t slid in to a couple other piles as an option, but this one clearly speaks it. There are other piles that mention a job centered around the throat chakra or communication, but this pile seems very specific.

I happened to shuffle all the bts photocards I was just using to cover up the crystal meanings, and you got RM, who is the rapper of the group. His style of writing is very poetic; outside of BTS, he has this album called Mono, and it is... it has the most incredible atmosphere to it that it feels like poetry rap. That’s how he writes anyway, he takes a very philosophical but artistic approach, plays with words and metaphors and language, and I see that here with the page of swords and hermit. There’s a sense of studying language in those two cards, so someone who... is an interpreter, who speaks multiple languages and uses that in their job, speech therapist, studies the... science behind words, etymology? Isn’t that what it is? Studies the written word, such as... philosophy... or would teach English. Also ironic I said translator and RM is the one who translates for BTS when they do English interviews. The poet looks like they’re singing, too, but I feel more that rather than say “singer” this pile is connected to... language, writing, words, studying them or there’s an intellectual pursuit around language. Archivist, researcher, librarian. Someone who’d work at the Smithsonian and could decipher Egyptian or Sumerian, etc... or archaeologist even. Or working with religious or spiritual texts. Working in a museum and archiving... I think even coding could fall under this, using coding to create things, studying coding or web programming, etc...  I guess it could be any job in which there’s knowledge and communication involved. More on the technical side. Engineer even, but again that’s like using the language of “math” to create.

I went to look up the flame oracle and the first line is “In sanskrit...” so again haha another tie to language. It also says at the end “it is likely that The Poet, The Mystic, or The Shaman” would call to you with the language of the flame. so again, “language”, “poet”. Shaman is a card that showed up in pile 3 so you could always check that out and I was almost going to say I feel something tied to pile 3 but that’s only bc pile 3 was the throat chakra jobs. But the flame card reminds me of ace of wands, it’s about inner vitality... however I felt through this description of the card that there was another message about having a passion for language, history, and ancient civilizations, their knowledge.

And Fairy Stone is a sacred stone found in canada, sacred to the native peoples who live there, so again, an appreciation for culture, history, knowledge, what’s “sacred” to a group of people, etc...  and there’s also elements of Magician vibe to it, as well, with the sense of manifesting success. The aspect of Geneva we’d be drawn to is probably the “knowing” but I also feel ambition, too. Ambition fits with the flame card, the flames around page of swords, flame on the hermit’s staff. But... that makes me think of that greek story or whatever about when the gods gave humans fire... and it was like... giving them knowledge. I’m sensing a very specific, repeating pattern here. I suppose you could also make a great tour guide of these types of places.

Pretty sure you get the idea of what the job could involve whether I named it specifically or not.

And as a personal message, what do I see - well you’d have to be extremely intelligent, as in book smart, read a lot, have a passion for ancient civilizations or culture, societies, architecture, old writings, etc... you might have a fascination with language. You might do a lot of writing yourself, if not songs or poetry or fiction, then keeping a journal or coding. You might do a lot of deep thinking in general, be a passionate communicator, especially about topics you’re very interested in...  you might already collect... specific objects. They don’t have to be crystals or stones or historical stuff, but maybe. However, it reminds me that RM collects bonzai plants and these ... robot figure things. So, yeah I feel you may have collections of specific things. Maybe you even collect books or a specific author’s books, might have a library at home or at least a decent bookshelf, might be a bit on the nerdy side, might think a lot like an earth sign, maybe sometimes... not rigid per se but almost like... structure to thoughts even if they’re artistic. You might be clumsy, you might sometimes lack common sense or like a lower social IQ... as in occasionally socially awkward. That’s me thinking of RM, because I do feel there’s fire energy even if it’s not prominent in your chart, there’s passion... enthusiasm... confidence, ambition.

But I think that passion would be directed at your hobbies/interests/job.

I think you’re probably quick-witted, though. Maybe even sarcastic.

I also want to say diplomat bc I see with the poet speaking there’s the doves, so it’s like someone who can speak and with their words create peace, so orator, politician, motivational speaker. You might be known for having eyes that stand out or an intense stare. You may have an interest in... the fantasy genre or have an interest in art, able to see stories through works of art or architecture. You’d enjoy going to a big city and visiting all the art museums.

I don’t see any advice or warnings or...  I think that about wraps it up, Pile 4.

[literaphobe]

speaking of meet up streams, i never really liked karlnap meet up streams. i’ll be honest and say individually they are the two i watch the least out of dtqk, but i feel like whenever karl is involved in a meet up stream, they feel so impersonal. like the karlnap cooking stream, why was there a camera man? and why was he zooming in and out and shaking it around all the time? george’s solo cooking streams and the snf cooking stream were much more entertaining imo.

i loved all of the qnf irl streams in december, the two of them together are electric and they both know how to balance an entertaining stream whilst maintaining that level of intimacy with the viewers.

i really enjoyed the snf streams too, especially the minecraft one and the cooking stream. i LOVED the qnfnap smoothie stream, where one of Them was the camera man rather than a random person, and it felt kinda like a home video.

i think karl relies way too much on his mr beast connections and experience for streaming, when mr beast is not a streamer. what works for youtube videos doesnt work for streams.

i love the whole . mom and pop store hands on vibe. like heres my mom and pop ranking:

1) dream. started his journey by studying the algorithm. learned coding to make interesting plugins for videos even tho he doesn’t personally do that as much these days. comes up with video ideas, edits all his own main channel videos, heavily involved in lore and writing and has pitched so many ideas, edits other people’s videos too and comes up w ideas for them, trains himself for his content, aka like improving his skills for manhunt and sourcing plus coming up w cool traps and tricks

2) quackity. his youtube channel grew up from ground up since he was a kid he’s heavily involved in the editing process of his own videos aside from subtitling he has gone through so many phases on his channel to keep things fresh as a creator his LORE is all edited and written by him he’s put in the effort to reach out to creators to put together a cohesive entertaining storyline he has his own ideas, he’s great w production and performance

3) george. instrumental to a lot of the coded plugins for his and dream’s videos esp in the early days, takes a lot of pride in his channel even if he isn’t usually the creative driving force behind certain ideas, but stuff like the ‘minecraft but my friend is ___’ idea was found by him and pitched to dream, he also edits his own videos in the event where he doesn’t girlboss dream into it, he is less involved in lore but has done impressive streams w heavy cc involvement and like set up (aka him ‘destroying’ the server and it all going back) and he’s shown good acting skills, he cares about the entertainment value he brings, brainstorms ideas for fun streams etc

4) sapnap. he’s a little more of a does as told guy which is fine because he followed dream here and that’s awesome and i wish i had his life. he’s dedicated def, he puts effort into filming and editing and when they film a video for his channel he’s usually prompt about getting it done and with lore he has the heart he wants to participate and make it more entertaining and he also wants to have a laugh and he is just skilled and that’s impressive always to see

5) karl. im sorry i love you i will free you one day. but maybe u don’t want to be freed. anyway i appreciate karl’s tenacity like he is a fun guy very friendly and ‘everyone is his friend’ vibe he is where he is bc he worked very hard with the stroke of luck he had w mr beast but well the minecraft videos did him no favors. i know he has it in him it just feels like he gets too ambitious so obviously he has to delegate but then when there’s too much delegation it loses some sincerity :( im sorry

KiSCon- Progress Report #2

Dear K/S friends,

Greetings! How is it May already? We hope you got well through the various April holidays. It's high time for our second progress report! Some of the following might be “old news” for you, but we think it is important to repeat details about registration & Discord. 1. Registration: You can sign up for our virtual KiScon 2022 directly on Conline. Please note that we handle all registrations through this framework this year. Registration is a 2-step process: 1) click “Join” to enter the KiScon area on Conline, then 2) click “Registration” to sign up for our 2022 convention. For a detailed explanation with screenshots, you can reach out to us! We recommend that you use a fannish name for your Conline profile, ideally your badge name (if you usually put both your real name and your fannish name on convention badges, only use the fannish part). 2. KiScon Discord (“KiScord”): You can join our KiScon Discord server by following this invite link. To make things a bit easier for the con staff, we’d appreciate if you could add your badge name also to your Discord profile name so that we know who is who. :-) For the convention weekend, there will be special channels for activities and chat, exclusive to con attendees. We will also create "Starfleet Academy" channels a week before the con, for training and practice, so that members can get used to the virtual setting and try out things. You can, of course, just take part in the convention by joining the panels in the Zoom sessions, but we strongly encourage you to also join the Discord server; it provides another layer of discussion and socialising during the con, and it will be the quickest way for you to get technical support if needed; some activities and games will require Discord. As always with all things computer and internet, we are very happy to help you if you have questions or encounter problems. We want to make this experience of a virtual KiScon as pleasant and smooth as possible for you. You can email me directly for help (1lostone @ kiscon.org) or feel free to send me an ask here or at my personal tumblr. There will be a Pub Night on the KiScord on Saturday, May 28th, 5:00 p.m. EDT (what time is that for me?) Join us for chat and games! This is also a good opportunity to get more familiar with Discord.  3. KiScon Fanvid Shows: send us your submissions! There will be three vid shows at KiScon 2022: Classics, Premieres/Competition, and our famous Disco Show on Saturday. To make these shows as awesome as possible, we ask you to send in your vids, please! Whether you are an old-skool vidder or a newcomer, queen of angsty vids or king of crack, seasoned scholar of K/S eye-sex studies, or master of plot transformations — we’d love to feature your works at the KiScon vid shows! We are looking for:

Premieres of all genres: these are vids that have not been published on the Internet or distributed on DVDs/tapes yet (we are lenient if the vid has been shown at a convention in the past, as long as it is not available anywhere). Vids created in or after 2020 (and unpublished) are eligible for our competition.

Classics of all genres: vids that showcase the history and rich variety of K/S and Star Trek vidding from the late 1970s to the 2010s

Fun & danceable song vids for our Disco Night & Sing-a-Long: exactly what it says on the tin – upbeat vids suitable for singing along and dancing the night away! 

Submission guidelines:

Star Trek TOS, TAS, movies, reboot are all welcome! However, we strive to keep the balance between TOS and reboot – we reserve the right to shift around vids between classics and disco tribs, if necessary. The focus should be on Kirk/Spock; we will accept a limited number of gen vids, though (but no other pairings).

Length limit per vid: 5 minutes.

Submissions of up to three vids per vidder permitted. A team counts as a person of its own.

Attending membership is not required, but if you grace us with your online presence at the convention, be prepared to get a virtual room full of adoration.

For the competition: There are two categories, drama (angst, serious topics, death, H/C) and humour (anything angst-free, happy and upbeat). Each vidder can send in one vid per category for the competition. (You can still submit more vids to the shows, though!) The attending members of KiScon will vote after the show and determine the winners, who will be featured on the KiScon blog and recced all over the ’net.

There is also going to be a download link with the vid shows after the con, as a goodie for attending and supporting members. Let us know if you’re fine with your vids being included in it.

Please submit your vid as high-resolution and high-quality as possible, and use reasonably common and reliable formats (e.g. .mp4, .mov, .avi – please spare us the pain of .flv or .wmv files). We want your work to look fabulous. For more details and technical instructions, please get in touch with T'Lara: larissa @ kiscon . org

Please register your vids as soon as possible by letting us know what you plan to send in (vidder name, title, song, genre, universe, length), either via the form on the KiScon website or send a message to T'Lara! Deadline for actual vid submission (preferably by Dropbox or similar download link): October 10th, 2022. We are looking forward to seeing your contributions!

4. KiScon Goodie Bag: Our traditional con bag will be entirely digital this year! Sadly, this means no chocolates (insert stoically sad Vulcans here)! But while you will, of course, get a .pdf file of the con zine, a .pdf file of the program booklet, and a download link for the vids, we will also include various other digital treats for you. Usually there are also goodies donated by con attendees or supporting members in the bags, e.g. stickers, sweets, flyers, bracelets etc., and we would be happy if members continued this tradition also in the virtual space. Anything that can be downloaded and shared digitally is game! Want to make a podfic or filk or mixtape for the con bag? Have some cool Trek crochet or sewing patterns that you would like to share? An awesome desktop wallpaper or digital stickers/badges that members can then use on their social media? Maybe a cool recipe for K/S cookies or a lovely manip?  The only restriction is that goodies need to be fannish in a transformative way, that means e.g. no video files of Trek eps, no audiobooks of pro novels, and no unaltered screenshots or officially released images. When in doubt, just ask us.  You can also send in digital flyers for your fannish projects, but these can also be included in the program booklet — which brings us to the next point… 5. KiScon Program Booklet:

The program booklet or “con book” not only provides all members with the schedule and a detailed overview of all the activities during KiScon, but will also include a section on dealers and year-round fannish spaces, much like a directory. If you would like us to include  links to your zine project, fannish event, fic fest, Trek podcast etc., please get in touch with us. This booklet will be compiled fairly close to the convention to reflect updates and changes in the schedule, but we’d appreciate if you sent in your submissions until October 1st, 2022.  Members who have a dealer ticket will get a more detailed listing. Please let us know how you would like to be presented in the booklet (for example: a list of all your available zines, announcements of new issues and calls for zine submissions). 6. Where to find information & announcements: Official website KiScon Discord server Tumblr blog Twitter Conline Facebook Group Dreamwidth 7. Last but not least, a signal boost: T'hy'la Bang (completed) & Sunflower Auction (ongoing) For your K/S delight, please check out the awesome fic and art from the T'hy'la Bang 2022: AO3 collection, masterlist. There's such a cornupia of talent in our fandom! <3 We'd also like to make you aware of Sunflower Auction, a multi-fandom charity project for Ukraine. Creator sign-ups are open until May 10, 2022, 23:59 UTC. Several fans from the Trek and K/S community have already signed up. Yours in K/S,

KONOHA ELEVEN IN A ZOOM CLASS!

FEATURING: naruto, sakura, shikamaru, ino, choji, hinata, kiba, shino, neji, rock lee, and tenten

WARNINGS: mentions of food

NARUTO

definitely has forgotten that he was unmuted multiple times

or his camera was accidentally turned on

you could just see him sprawled on his bed with a bowl of instant ramen on his lap and a blanket wrapped around himself

EARRAPE SLURPS!! rip headphone users.

sometimes he notices that his camera’s turned on and you can see him freak out and scramble to turn it off

but he accidentally unmutes himself too and so you just hear panicked yelling

his device topples to the floor with a loud crash and he screams so loud istg

the next thing you see is naruto’s face hovering over the camera in fear just before his camera turns off and he’s muted again

the teacher is so confused?? naruto should i call an ambulance

but when he’s not eating in class, he’s sleeping in class

too busy sleeping to leave the zoom at the end of class so he’s always the last one left in the meeting besides the teacher

always asks sakura what happened during the zoom and she is FED UP

SAKURA

enters the waiting room 15 minutes before class is actually supposed to begin

spends the next 15 minutes rearranging her work area, making sure she’s prepared for the day

sits properly at her desk with her hair smoothed down and her face positioned perfectly in frame

if no one else has their camera on, she’s the only one with it on

seriously, she ALWAYS HAS IT ON

and she never leaves the screen somehow

diligently takes notes, uses the “raise hand” feature every two minutes to ask a question

sometimes it can get a bit annoying, even for the teacher

but she almost always gets perfect marks

acts like in angel in class, but after class... no promises, naruto!

SHIKAMARU

this man can barely stay awake during missions, so during a zoom? HECK NAH

shikamaru is literally me,, half asleep during lessons but somehow gets amazing grades

everyone’s either pissed at or envious of him (especially naruto)

obviously does not have his camera on

and rarely ever unmutes

uses the chat feature to answer the teacher’s questions but this man is basically asleep so its so incoherent

“shikamaru, what is a hyperbole?”

in chat: “a hyeprbole is a exsaggerayed phras,e”

teacher definitely thinks he’s cheating on tests

INO

either a) daydreaming about boys or b) checking herself out in the zoom camera OR c) secretly fuming at sakura’s know-it-all behavior

the two girls definitely compete to see who can raise their virtual hand first

"ahem, ahem- sensei? could i answer this question?"

her voice gets all sickly sweet and sakura HATES IT

the two of them totally got caught insulting each other in the private chat

100% the type of student to rewrite her notes after classes with various markers and colored pens and pretty fonts and patterns and whatnot

loves doodling flowers in her notebook during boring lessons!

CHOJI

another strong contender for the Loudest Student award!

not on purpose though, he just forgets that space bar = unmute, and plays some jumping game in another tab (like the no internet dino game!)

also,, rip headphone users

c r o n c h munch munch munch

are you kidding this man's chews are loud enough in person, but with a HEADSET?! hoo boy.

has conked out several times during class

just imagine the name Choji Akimichi with a profile picture of a bag of chips light up with the green box around it with a thunk

the teacher and class is so confused

but then you hear mumbles of "barbeque... chips... barbeque..."

and you realize that the man fell asleep onto his keyboard

he sleeps through the rest of class

HINATA

shy bb has never ONCE turned on her camera

the only time she's ever unmuted was to say "here" during attendance on the first day of school

if the teacher ever takes attendance again, she just uses the raise hand feature

what if naruto-kun thinks my voice is ugly? what if i accidentally turn on my camera? what if the teacher thinks i'm not paying attention? what if-

poor baby is too busy worrying about showing herself on zoom to actually pay attention

actually gets good grades though and her classmates wonder if she’s even there

her zoom pfp is definitely just a purple google “H”

KIBA

has the CUTEST zoom pfp hands down

it’s a selfie of him grinning cheerily with baby akamaru

100% has his camera on the whole time to show off his pup

he loves seeing everyone’s faces on screen melt and aww at the lil big doggo

sometimes akamaru just walks in front of the camera and blocks kiba from view and you just see a massive wall of white fur on screen LMAO

even though kiba’s muted, you can see him and akamaru bickering about who knows what

or even play fighting,, these two get into full on BRAWLS during class

just imagine akamaru shoves kiba into his desk and his camera crashes to the ground overturned so you see the ceiling and the occasional dog tail wagging in the corner

seriously, can the teacher ever catch a break with this class?

the answer is no.

SHINO

his zoom pfp is just a tick.

a singular tick

totally answers questions in chat with proper capitalization and punctuation

shikamaru’s improper answers tick him off

“A hyperbole is an expression that is greatly exaggerated. They are used in order to create emphasis.”

has never unmuted in his life either

he’s so unfazed by everything that goes down in class that it’s funny

if anything the slightest bit RELATED to bugs comes up during class, in 0.00238 seconds this man has an entire essay about them posted in chat, almost like he had it copied and READY to paste

everyone's definitely shocked that there’s actually a human listening behind a tick profile picture

NEJI

a very diligent note taker

seriously, this man writes like a printer; perfectly even handwriting that looks like a font, a million words per minute

everyone asks him for his notes after the zoom because they’re so neat (especially naruto, to neji’s dismay)

he gets excellent grades since he’s so organized and focused

just wishes the zoom would be over so he can work alone in peace

really hates unmuting so he often gives one-word answers in the chat

“Yes” “47” “Present” “Goodbye”

has used a zoom reaction ONCE in his life and he has never wanted to crawl into a hole and perish more

it was a complete accident,, mans was just trying to open the chat to type in his answer, but in a cruel twist of fate he clicked on the 😂 reaction

and he just sat there for ten excruciating seconds in complete and utter shock and shame for ten excruciating seconds as he prayed for it to disappear

tenten would never let him live that down

ROCK LEE

Zoom Reaction Enthusiast

😂😮👍🎉❤️ 24/7

naruto accidentally unmutes himself? 😮

choji falls asleep on his keyboard? 😂

neji answers something correctly? 👍

tenten received the highest score in class? 🎉

akamaru appears on screen? ❤️

unmutes whenever he needs to, but he thinks the little emoticons are so silly and cute

otherwise, he is EXTRA FOCUSED and EXTREMELY DETERMINED to learn all of the things

he’s the first to unmute whenever the teacher asks if the class can see the screen share, hear them correctly, etc.

never takes his eyes off the screen!! he could be missing out on important information

I FEEL LIKE,, i feel like he would totally keep his camera off when he’s muted but whenever he unmutes he would also turn his camera on

so when he says a quick “yes!” his camera turns on but before his camera can adjust properly to the light he mutes and turns his camera back off so his face is just super dark for a split second LMAOOO

tell me im wrong

TENTEN

exasperated by this entire class

thinks her and neji are the only sane ones in the class and it’s true

wants to tell sakura and ino to stop competing and just focus on learning, since they’re the only other girls in the class besides hinata

plus she’s just fed up with all the lazy boys

takes great pride in passing every assignment, test, or exam with flying colors

teachers pet, but the quieter type who stays after every zoom and sends lots of emails regarding assignments and grades and whatnot (unlike sakura and ino who rub it in the teacher’s face)

doesn’t like helping other people besides neji, girl’s got a soft spot for him since they have a mutual respect for each other

but if you’re a handsome prince, maybe she’ll help you out!

if you enjoyed this post, likes and reblogs are much appreciated :) feel free to request here, and make sure to read the rules first! have a lovely day everyone <3

[sunflowerdaisybee]

Hi, I've been reading a lot of your work and I just have to say that your writing is amazing. I just got the courage to send a request.

Could you do a hard of hearing male reader?? Like maybe with any or all of the feral boys. Reader knows asl/bsl and the boys find it interesting and would like to learn.

This is so cute <3333 and I'm glad you like my work! Your request is really cool and I hope to see you around more, I love when people send in requests <3 also Quackity is pink text and George is blue

Summary: The feral boys want to surprise you

Pairing: P!Feral Boys X Reader

Pronouns: he/him

[A/n]: requests are open

"Where can we learn sign language though? The only person I know that knows it is (Y/n) and we can't ask him."

"We could look it up." The other boys hummed in agreement, all opening up google to look into ways to learn asl.

"Here's one that sounds promising, it's online asl classes and you can do private lessons or do lessons with a general class. You do it over zoom and depending on the lesson plan you choose depends on the price."

"What are the prices?"

"$30 for a week of general and $50 for a week of private, that's per person."

"That's not too bad, what are the ratings?"

"Uh 2.5 outta 5, there's a lot of mixed opinions. There's a lot of people saying it's a scam and that they learned nothing and a couple saying it was great. Doesn't seem too trustworthy, we should keep looking." All conversation stopped as a ping sounded out and you joined the call.

"Did you guys start the call without me or am I just late?"

"We started early, we were just talking about random stuff while we waited for you." Sapnap spoke and sent a message in the chatbox so that you could read it in case you didn't hear him.

"Ah ok, so what game are we playing today?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The five boys had a few more secret meetings after that, discussing different ways to learn asl and surprise you. It wasn't easy though as often found themselves not liking the learning guide they had found.

"Maybe we should just ask (Y/n) to teach us, I mean it would be best to learn from him anyways. He already knows it and could teach us free."

"But that would ruin the surprise aspect of it."

"I'm just gonna ask him, I'm don't feel like looking at any more scam sites." There were a few murmurs of protest before everyone eventually settled into the idea.

George sent you a message, inviting you to the call. It was only a moment before you joined, a ding alerting them to your arrival.

"Hey, guys what's up?"

"Can you teach us sign language?" Dream spoke fast, almost forgetting to send a message with it as well. Though once you had read it you lit up with joy.

"Yes, I would love to!" You nodded excitedly and asked what about it had piqued their interest.

"Actually we wanted to learn so that we could surprise you but we couldn't find anyone to learn from that seemed credible so we asked you."

"We just want to be able to communicate better with you is all." Your heart warmed at that, a grateful smile taking home on your face.

"When do you guys wanna start learning? We can make a schedule and plan for when you all have free time."

"We want to start learning as soon as possible!"

"Awesome!"

Could we get some Ceddy and his s/o, where he gets jealous of another sorcerer and it's just dying for attention? I myself have been dying to see something like this :3

omg i actually love this AHASDA i got so excited to write for this

i've based this off the day of the sorcerers episode for a clearer explanation but in this version, greylock wasn't part of grimtrix's clan and still remained as a normal royal sorcerer

the actual jealousy content begins under the ━━━ line so if you wanna skip the plot and go straight to that, you're free to

enjoy!

Jealous Cedric | Cedric X Reader

It was the day of the annual 'Day of the Sorcerers' festival - and Cedric had been ecstatic all year to finally take you and show you what it's all about. It had been a good few years now since the incident that occurred with Grimtrix and his clan, so it seemed like an appropriate time for Cedric to have you accompany him. You were excited too; Cedric had spoken fondly of the events and was excited for you to experience a day of the topic he was zealous about.

The entire flying-carriage ride was full of giggles and eager bursts of passion from Cedric as he explained some of the stalls you needed to visit and performances you simply had to see and went into in depth detail on traditions held that you'd love. You smiled, listening intently to your significant other as he grinned at you, relishing in his enthusiasm and finding his rambling adorable.

When you finally arrived at Hexley Hall, Cedric practically bounced out of the flying-carriage and took in the enormous crowd of wizards, witches, sorcerers and people who had travelled all over the Kingdom for this event. He gasped with delight before remembering his manners, turning back to the carriage and opening the door, offering his hand for you to climb out safely - which you grabbed with a beam. The familiar feel of Cedric's gloves locked against your palms was soothing in the crowd, and his slender fingers slipped into place securely with your own. You allowed him to guide you and take the lead as you followed his fast pace, noticing the thrilled glint in his hazel eyes.

"Oh my love, I am simply ecstatic for you to be here with me today, thank you for coming." Cedric spoke back to you, his tone of voice slightly higher with excitement, glancing behind his shoulder and keeping his hands interlocked tightly with yours. "I'm really excited to be here with you too, Cedric. It looks amazing!"

You looked around the venue and marvelled at the moving statues guarding the closed door - it was obvious that it had not begun yet, giving you time to look up at all the mystic spells being cast by various sorcerers. Phoenix birds made from flames and glitter zoomed elegantly around the dark night sky, lighting it up like fireworks as the sorcerer's guided them with the tips of their wands. Cedric caught your gaze and squeezed your hand gently, smiling at you. "Impressive, right? I know a spell similar to that, but you'll see so much more ins-"

He was cut off by the loud movement of the stone statues beginning to move and open the doors, as all the people gathered outside began to rapidly shuffle and move. Your hand gripped Cedric's as he practically dragged you towards the door with a grin.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The day went fantastically, as you and Cedric toured around the hall, allowing you to witness so many magical and enchanted performances of talent, try amazing foods and watch as Cedric expanded his own skills by eagerly writing down new spells he had learnt on an old bit of parchment paper he found in his pocket and buy new ingredients for some potions he was desperate to brew.

"Darling, I won't be a moment - I just need to go to this stall and buy something I had forgotten to earlier - just stay here, alright?"

You gave Cedric a reaffirming smile and turned back to the stall you were once looking at as he hurried away, before feeling a pressure on your shoulder. The feeling made you jump slightly, but your expression softened as you realised who it was.

"[Y/N]! How unusual to see you here!" Greylock said with his signature smile, as you sighed with relief and returned one back to him. You had briefly met Greylock a few years ago when he had visited Enchancia with his King, but this was before you and Cedric were together and did not familiarise yourself with him much. You were even surprised that he had remembered your name. "I can't say I'm surprised to see you here, Greylock. It is quite an event to be held, wouldn't you say?"

You felt rude to ignore Greylock and patiently wait for Cedric's arrival, so the two of you stood, speaking small talk and laughing at Greylock's small jokes. Cedric made his way through the crowd, holding a paper bag full of ingredients and adding his new addition to it, when he glanced up at where you once were to see Greylock.

Greylock the Grand was speaking to you. He had his arm on your shoulder, and it didn't look like he had plans to remove it anytime soon. Cedric grit his teeth, narrowing his eyebrows as he watched him speak to you and you laugh at whatever he was saying. What was to be described as a fiery pit began to form in Cedric's stomach, as he cleared his throat and made his way other to you both.

You sensed Cedric's arrival out of the corner of your eye and secretly thanked him - the conversation had turned to your love life, something that you did not wish to speak about in detail with Greylock. Greylock's glance broke from you to Cedric, giving him a smile and going to shake his hand. "Cedric! I was just asking [Y/N] why they were here alone, but it turns out I was wrong!"

Like it was nothing, Cedric wrapped an arm around your waist and pulled you close towards him, quite quickly. The sudden movement took you by surprise as you put a hand on his chest, looking up at him and seeing a snarl on his face, his eyes cold as he looked at Greylock. It immediately clicked, as you bit your lip with a smile. If it was coming honestly from you, Cedric was quite a jealous and possessive individual. You knew that this jealousy partially stemmed from the bullying and torment he experienced in his younger years, but Cedric also had a burning passion to make everyone around him aware that you were his.

"Oh really?" Cedric began to reply, his tone of voice flat as he began to rub your waist with his fingers. Greylock raised an eyebrow at Cedric's arm placement, but was so oblivious to the situation that he continued on. "Yeah, I was just mentioning how dangerous it could be to let such a pretty sweetheart loose alone, especially with all these sorcerers around."

Cedric's grip seemed to tighten on your waist as his eyebrows got lower, his facial expression getting angrier by the minute. "That's good, but they're not alone. Me and my partner were just about to leave, thank you Greylock. Until we meet again." He said flatly, turning around but keeping his arm hooked around your waist. The two of you left a speechless Greylock standing still as he watched Cedric guide you out of the hall and outside.

Outside was quieter, as most of the sorcerer's were now inside and experiencing the event to all it's glee. The dark night sky was illuminated with stars and the bright moonlight shone down on you. You were silent until you were outside, stopping and facing Cedric. You put both of your hands on his chest, your cheeks slightly pink from Cedric's outburst earlier. Cedric took your hands in his and rubbed the back of them with his thumbs, leaning down and placing a sweet kiss on your cheek, before lingering his lips and moving up to place them upon yours, placing them in a gentle - but hungry - kiss. You reciprocated the kiss keenly, as if you had been waiting for it all night.

One of Cedric's hands fell from yours, but instead found its place entangled in your hair and running down the back of your neck as he kissed you. You broke apart with a huff of breath, but Cedric kept his hands on you.

"My dear, I love you. Merlin forbid I ever let you out of my sight again. You're all mine, alright?"

[etherian-affairs]

Entrapdak is still subtext, they didn't confirm it

Y’all can’t be seeing that entire arc and say they ain’t canonically in love. Season 3 and 4 already have huge evidence for it but like we can dive here too.

How about the first time we see Entrapta having a chance to see a dormant clone she immediately goes to it to check if it’s Hordak? She’s in a genelab of some kind, the tech here is amazing, and she’s immediately ignored it to check on this clone.

We learn she recovered the LUVD Crystal and has had it on her person this whole time just in case she finds Hordak and he needs it. She’s carrying it with her because she cares about him, she worries about him, she wants to help him.

She just so desperately wants it to be him, to see him again and for him to see her.

Of course this is Wrong Hordak, which leads to another very important reveal.

Entrapta has been keeping a list. We can infer she’s been watching the clones to try and determine which one is Hordak. This is an active tally in her mind, something she’s been doing. Entrapta isn’t really one to pine, she’s one to work, and this is her working in regards to Hordak.

On Hordak’s side?

Entrapta loses the crystal on Prime’s Ship, and Hordak finds it. Hordak has been reset but he sees it and immediately remembers her, at least her name. His affections for her are strong enough he instantly begins to break control.

Other times we see a solid break of control like this are on chipped people, notably Catra and Spinnerella who break Prime’s grip through their love. This continues too. Hordak continues to have scenes holding and pondering the crystal, and when Prime has him help retrieve memories from an old body we get the scene of Hordak retrieving his own memories. 

Notably he takes a risk, while Prime is distracted he lets himself dive into his own mind.

And very notably gets this flashback at the end of the sequence.

Let’s zoom forward to Failsafe, back on Etheria. To their ENCOUNTER. Hordak finds her, asks her what she is doing here. Then sees her and...

He recognizes her.

Entrapta does THIS, and then...

This is a CLASSIC trope right here. Character who isn’t supposed to feel things falls in love and drops that “What have you done to me?”

Entrapta takes his hand. A gentle touch between them as they found each other again.

As Swift Wind pulls her away the last thing she does is remind him his Imperfections are Beautiful, he’s Beautiful. She knows he’s out there, he recognizes her. She knows he’ll come back to her. There’s faith there, and Entrapta normally isn’t really one for that.

And that night.

While everyone else is asleep she pulls up an image of him, just to look at it.

And then, and THEN. The real OOMF moment to it all. Entrapta is captured, Hordak is her primary guard here.

Instantly he is upset to see her upset, and when ordered to kill her later.

He breaks free. He reclaims himself to protect her, to save her. Just as she’s saved him.

He looks back at her, gentle and kind, and dare I say loving?

Entrapta confirms she simply believed in him, in his ability to overcome.

Then Prime does his space demon possession thing, and She-Ra purifies Hordak. 

Like do I even need commentary for this?

This is a love arc. It’s really really blatant. They don’t kiss, they don’t say the words love but also its Entrapta and Hordak. That’s not really how they are? That’s part of the beauty of it too. They clearly, very clearly, love each other and it’s in their own way. 

tl;dr did you watch the show?

a warm december

pairing: college!peter parker x reader

request: Since it's the holiday season, I was wondering if I could request something with Peter and female!reader where they're dating but reader doesn't know that he's Spider-Man and one night when it's particularly cold, Spider-Man comes crashing through reader's window. Turns out the heater in his suit failed and since he has issues with thermoregulation, it's up to reader to warm him up? Can be either fluffy or smutty or a combo. Author's choice! 😉 by anonymous

warnings: some soft-ish smut, unprotected sex (u already know to be safe, wear protection y’all) 

word count: 3.6k

notes: so i was clearing out my inbox but when i came to write this i figured i should make it a full fic instead––also u can imagine this takes place like the second week of december so it can be for either hanukkah or christmas or kwanzaa or anything! happy holidays <3

It felt good to be back home for the holidays. You had a good time at college but you were happy to be done with exams. You were also more than grateful to be able to sleep in your own bed in the comfort of your own home. You had made a lot of good memories thus far in all your classes, in your dorm that you were able to decorate the way you wanted with your roommate, Gwen––but you had missed your family and you had missed your boyfriend as well.

You and Peter’s colleges were only a few hours away from each other, so you could have visited each other, but your schedules were too busy and something always seemed to come up on both your ends. You were both swamped with work and sometimes you just didn’t have the energy to travel, but you both understood. 

So instead, you and Peter had facetimed and even used zoom to talk for hours after class when you both were free or at night before you went to bed. He’d even met some of your friends and he’d won them over almost immediately, his charm never ran out. You’d also met some of his friends as well, the one you’d seen most was named Harry. He was a flirt, but you knew it was all in good fun––you both liked to see Peter flustered and annoyed, but out of love of course. 

Unfortunately, you had yet to see Peter since you had gotten back. You understood that he needed some time to settle in, and you knew for certain that May missed him more than anything. You’d been home for a couple days now and you’d spent your time catching up with your parents, and helping decorate the apartment. You put up some white fairy lights in your room, wanting to feel the holiday spirit a little more in your space––the lights always made you feel more cozy too. You smiled to yourself as you turned them on, already feeling more calm before looking in your desk and grabbing the small spider-man snow globe you’d gotten at the store a few years back. Peter got weirdly blushy when he first saw it, but you never really asked why. 

You set it down on your dresser and went to find your midtown high sweatshirt, it was one of the warmest ones you had. Though the heat was on in your home, you could still feel the cold air seeping through from the walls and the windows that looked out into the city. You could see the small figures of people walking down in the cold street, bundled up, the lights in every window of the buildings across the street. 

You were about to make sure the window was closed properly when a figure appeared on the outside of your room, slowly opening the window. You stood frozen in fear, too shocked to even scream. Your eyes widened when you realized who exactly was making their way into your room, the famous red and blue suit contrasting with the white specks of snow falling outside. 

“You––You’re Spider-Man––” You were stuttering in disbelief as the hero stood in your room, closing the window quietly. He turned around immediately, it seemed he hadn’t thought this through. The eyes of his mask were wide, almost frantic as he looked at you and put a finger up to his lips, gesturing for you to be quiet. 

You nodded slowly and quickly closed your door, making sure your parents were nowhere near. You locked the door just in case. You had already said goodnight, so they probably wouldn’t come by anyway, but you never know. 

You turned back around and took a few deep breaths to calm yourself down. Surely there was an issue? Spider-Man wasn’t known to make home visits––

Your brows furrowed when you focused on the masked hero in front of you. He was almost hunched over, his limbs moving slowly as they trembled. You stepped towards him, your hands outstretched but sticking close to you as you were unsure of what to do.

“Are you okay?”

He paused, looking down, muttering something to himself that you couldn’t quite hear. “I––Shit. I didn’t want you to find out like this, I swear.” 

You only looked at him, even more confused. 

He tried to stand up straight and you could hear him wince as he looked up at you. “I––” He cleared his throat. “Please don’t be mad, okay? I just didn’t tell you because I wanted to protect you and I could never figure out the right time to say it––” He pulled off his mask and your eyes widened, a gasp escaping you when you took in his familiar features. His eyes were wide and apologetic, his hair fluffy and messed up, but as you looked closer you noticed his nose, cheeks and red were all a painful red, his lips almost blue.

You closed the distance between you, your hands coming up to hold his cheeks and you could feel his body sigh in relief from the warmth of your palms. “Peter, oh my god! Are you okay?” Your eyes were scanning his features, the only thing on your mind being your worry for him.

You could feel his eyes watching you carefully up close as you held him gently. “You––” Your eyes flickered up to his when you noticed the trembles in his voice as he spoke up quietly, almost as if he was scared. “You’re not mad?”  

You pouted at him, “No baby I’m not mad. I understand, really. It makes sense why you were so busy all the time.” You gave him a small smile but it quickly slipped off your face when you focused on the boy in front of you. “But you’re freezing Pete. Doesn’t the suit have a heating feature or something?” 

He looked at you for a moment, his eyes sparkling as he wondered how he got so lucky. “I um––” He shook his head, trying his best to pay attention when a shiver ran through his body. “Yeah it––It does but the thermoregulation malfunctioned earlier when I um…” He trailed off and you raised a brow, trying to catch his eye.

He looked down and licked his lips, already starting to feel his face a little more in the temperature of your room. “I kinda…” He scratched the back of his head. “Bumped into a building earlier?...” 

You paused and Peter looked up when you didn’t say anything, whining your name when he noticed you trying your best to suppress a smile. “Oh come on it’s not funny!” 

You bit your lip, nodding as you tried to calm down. “Of course, right. I’m sorry.” You rubbed your thumb across his cheek and you could see him warming up to you again, subconsciously pressing his face into your palm. “It’s just, you really bumped into a building? How did you even do that, Pete?” You couldn’t help but let out a small laugh.

He rolled his eyes but you could see a sheepish smile tugging at his lips. “I uh––I was swinging by the park where we had our first date and I kinda got distracted, started daydreaming about you honestly.”

You smiled at him, recognizing that the fresh blush on his cheeks was no longer from the cold.  “Aww Pete,” you cooed, pulling him in for a sweet kiss. Your lips connected softly, your movements familiar despite the months you’d spent apart. When you pulled away, the both of you were smiling wide. “Missed you, Pete.” 

He wanted to reach out and hold you so badly, but he knew that his suit was cold, especially his hands, so he let his arms lay limp at his sides. “Missed you more and more every day.” He leaned in and pressed a short kiss to your forehead, the small gesture making your cheeks heat up. 

“I’d let you take a shower to warm up, but my parents would probably see you…”

He nodded, “No, it’s okay! I was...Actually hoping you could warm me up? If you don’t mind, of course––”

Your eyes brightened as you watched him stutter, he was still as cute as ever. “Okay. I think you have some clothes left over here too, so I’ll get them.” You went over to your dresser and looked through the drawers to find the sweats and hoodie he’d left over for you. 

Peter pressed the middle of his chest and sighed as he let the damp material slide off of him. He stepped out of it and put it on your chair along with his mask, before putting his hands together and blowing hot air in between them. He was shifting from side to side, rubbing his hands together quickly as he waited patiently. He just really wanted to hold you. 

You quickly turned around when you found the clothes, pausing in your tracks when you noticed that he’d gained some muscle since the last time you saw him. Your mouth ran dry as your eyes trailed down his body. “Um––” You set the clothes at the end of the bed. “You know I think sharing body heat is a good way to warm you up.” 

His eyes widened, “Yeah, I mean, sure. That––that should work.” 

You took your sweats off, then your sweatshirt, along with your shirt and you could feel his eyes burning through you. You got into the bed, beckoning your boyfriend to come closer. “C’mere.” 

He rushed over and got under the covers, a small smile on his face as he laid down next to you. His hand was inching towards your waist but he paused, looking into your eyes. “I tried to warm my hands up but they’re still a little cold––”

You laughed at how cute he was being and grabbed his hand, bringing it over to hold you. If anything the cool feeling of his fingertips soothed you as he dug them into your waist softly. You moved closer together until you were sharing a pillow, your noses almost grazing each other’s.

You brought a hand up to play with his hair, your legs tangled together as he pulled you as close as possible. He sighed contently and let his eyes flutter shut for a moment. There was a satisfied and almost reminiscent smile on his face when he looked back at you. “Missed this.” 

You bit your lip and took your hand away teasingly. “Missed what?”

He immediately pouted, “Hey––” He whined, dragging out the word. He took your hand and placed it back in his hair and you couldn’t help but laugh at how adorable he was being. “Don’t be mean to me. I had a rough night.” He gave you the best puppy dog eyes he could muster and you rolled your eyes.

You leaned in and pressed a kiss to his nose. “Such a baby.” 

He gave you a cheeky smile. “Your baby.” 

“Yeah,” You smiled, still playing with his hair. “My baby.” 

You pressed your lips against his and he pulled you impossibly closer, breathing slowly as he kissed you deeply. Your heads tilted in sync, your mouths moving together, softly and sweetly. He raised himself up on one arm so he was hovering over you slightly and unintentionally rubbed his thigh between your legs, making you sigh and squeeze your legs around him, your arms coming up to wrap around his neck. He pulled away when you hummed into the kiss.

You looked up at him, pure want and adoration in your eyes. “Need you, Pete. Wanna feel you.”

He nodded and looked into your eyes, his thumb caressing your cheek. “Haven’t felt you in a while, have I?” His voice was soft as he took in your features. “I’ll give you anything you want, princess.” He pressed a quick kiss to your lips before sliding his boxers off, as you slipped off your underwear. 

He climbed over you and settled between your legs, and as cheesy and weird as it was, he felt at home. “Do you want me to––” He looked down, and you easily filled in the blank. 

You raised a brow, “How exactly is that going to warm you up, Pete?” 

He blushed, his eyes darting around you. “Well I just––I haven’t tasted you in a while…”

You could feel yourself getting flustered and he could hear your heartbeat quicken but chose not to comment on it. “Maybe tomorrow, babe.” You swore you saw his eyes light up. “But for now, get in me please.” 

He nodded immediately. “Yeah, yeah okay. Let me just––” He was about to slip a hand down when you stopped him. He paused and you grabbed his wrist gently and brought his hand up to your mouth, slipping two fingers in eagerly as he watched you in shock, his jaw dropped. Your eyes were innocent as you looked up at him, your lips wrapped around his fingers, sucking and wetting them thoroughly. 

When you let them go with a pop you simply smiled and shrugged. “They were cold.” 

He let out a breath of laughter in disbelief, before coming down to kiss you passionately. Your hands came up and held his face and you sighed when his fingers came down to spread your lips and rub your clit. “God, I missed you.” He said when pulled away, looking down at you in awe. 

He rubbed his fingers along your slit, collecting and spreading your wetness and teasing your clit before slipping his fingers inside of you, biting his lip at the way your head tilted back, your eyes fluttering shut as you moaned. He leaned forward and pressed small kisses along the column of your throat, enjoying the way he could feel your pulse under his lips. He trailed his kisses up to your sweet spot, each one lasting longer and becoming more sensual as he reached it. 

The vibration of his voice felt good as he spoke up against you, his fingers thrusting into you at a pleasing pace. “That feel good, baby?” 

You swallowed and nodded, licking your lips. “Mhm. So good.” 

His lips curved into a smile against your skin, still pressing kisses as he marked your neck––it’d been a while since he’d been able to do this and he was going to savor it as much as he could. When he was done putting the finishing touches on his first love bite, he sped up his fingers and decided to press his thumb against your bundle of nerves. You gasped as your thighs clenched around him unconsciously, your hands coming down to hold his arm. 

He pulled away from your neck reluctantly, finding that he’d found comfort resting his lips against your skin––he’d have to ask you if he could leave more marks later on. He noticed the look of desire in your eyes, the way your lips were parted almost in a silent plea. 

You were close but you still wanted to feel him. You wanted all of him. “Pete I need you––”

He licked his lips “Can tell you’re close though, baby.” He pressed harder against your clit and you whined, your hips bucking desperately, making him smile. “Just wanna see you fall apart on my fingers. Haven’t seen it in way too long.” He was looking at you from under his lashes, his eyes somehow filled with both hunger and tenderness. “Gonna let me watch you cum on my fingers, princess?” 

You breathed out and nodded, the pleasure clouding your thoughts. “O––Okay.” 

He kept the same pace, knowing what you needed to tip over the edge and grinned absentmindedly when your thighs trembled and weakly tried to shut around his hand. He gently pushed them apart and slowed his movements, rubbing your clit softly as you mewled and ground your hips into his touch slowly to feel the extent of your climax. His eyes were trailing over your features, the furrow between your brows, the way your eyes rolled back before they fluttered shut, the way you bit your lip when the peak of your orgasm washed away. He was so in love with you and everything about you. 

He gently slid his fingers out of you and brought them up to his mouth to lick and suck them clean. His eyes were still watching you absentmindedly that he didn’t even realize you were staring at him, your mouth open in shock and lust. He only snapped out of it when your hand reached down to grab his cock.

“Shit––” 

You rubbed his tip through your folds, getting it wet as you stroked his hard member. He easily took over for you and held your thigh as he slid in slowly, letting you accommodate to the stretch and feel every inch of him that you’d missed for all these months. 

“So good––Feel so so good.” He groaned as he bottomed out and felt your walls practically suck him in where he belonged. His head fell back for a moment as he got lost in the pleasure––you felt much better than his hand. 

His hands dug into your thighs as he took a moment to collect himself, not wanting to finish just yet. He leaned forward so that his body was pressed up against yours, since you were doing this to share body heat after all. You wrapped your arms under his and around him, letting your fingertips dig into his back as he started to thrust into you, slow and deep.

“Missed being inside you.” He grunted out, his lips grazing yours. It felt nice to finally be connected without any barriers in the way, skin to skin as you poured your hearts out to each other. You could feel your heartbeats and your breaths syncing together as you went on, Peter’s hips thrusting into you at a faster pace as one of his hands squeezed between you to rub at your sensitive clit. 

“Gonna give me one more, yeah?” His remark was more of a statement than a question as he stared into your eyes, the look in them warm and wanting. You found yourself nodding anyway, smiling to yourself when you noticed his lips curve up at your response. 

With a few more purposeful thrusts and rubs of his thumb, you were tipping over the edge, Peter not far behind as he pressed his lips against yours urgently to muffle the both of your moans and cries.Your legs tightened around his waist, pulling him in as he rutted his hips into you, releasing inside you with a long and satisfied sigh against your lips. 

As you settled down from your highs, your fingers slowly released their grip on his back, your limbs sinking back into the sheets as you relaxed. You pressed a few small kisses to each other’s lips, the last one lingering a bit before you pulled away from each other. Peter watched you for a few moments before kissing both of your cheeks and pulling out of you slowly, biting his lip as he focused on the sight between your legs.

Though you tried to let Pete stay in bed in the warmth of the sheets, he insisted that you’d done a good job warming him up, and kissed you hand before making his way over to find the package of baby wipes on you always kept on your dresser to clean you up. He noticed you’d already taken out the little spider-man snow globe and smiled to himself, feeling a light coating of blush rise to his cheeks.

He made his way back to you and pressed a knee onto the bed as he cleaned between your legs gently, apologizing quietly when you jolted at the feeling. The wipe was wet and cold, but it was also soothing––Peter’s hand that was caressing your leg also helped soothe you as well. He quickly discarded the wipe in the trash near your bedside as you plugged in your phone and got ready for bed, the two of you working like clockwork. 

Peter made his way back under the covers with you and with open arms as you scooted closer to him, resting your head on his chest as he wrapped his arms around you, pressing a kiss to your forehead. You nestled further into him, the both of you had sappy smiles on your faces. 

“So, are you warm enough now?” You asked, slinging your arm and leg around him.

“Definitely. That was way better than the heating system in my suit.”

You laughed and pinched his side teasingly, making him whine playfully. 

A comfortable silence fell upon the room and you waited a moment before speaking up again. “I’m glad we can do this again.” You admitted quietly.  

He knew exactly what you meant, how you felt––because he felt the same. He’d been counting down the days until he’d be able to hold you again. He held you tighter. “Me too. Couldn’t sleep as well at first without you by my side, you know.” His hand mindlessly traced patterns on the bare skin of your back.

You looked up at him. “You never told me that.”

He shrugged, looking up at the ceiling. “Didn’t want you to worry.” He looked back down at you and his eyes were so focused on you that he didn’t blink for a moment, just taking all of you in. “Now that I’m with you, I’m not letting you go until I absolutely have to, though.” 

You let out a sound between a hum and a content sigh and tilted your head up to meet his lips with yours for one last sweet kiss before you went to sleep. “I’m okay with that.” 

He smiled cutely and you rested your head back on his chest. 

“Goodnight Pete.”

“Night sweetheart.”

GIF Tutorial for Beginners

People keep asking me to teach them how to make gifs and I end up writing them long confusing messages, so I figured maybe it’s time to just write up an actual clean tutorial instead! This is supposed to be for total beginners! (Or people who want to switch to a new process that I’ve curated and streamlined over 8 years of making gifs.) I’ll try to keep this as barebones as possible, and won’t include all the advanced stuff I usually add. I hope it’s easy enough to follow, and I’ll include some links at the end for more stuff. I really do think it’s better to make a few simple gifs before doing more complicated stuff though, just to get used to it!

There will be three sections in this tutorial: #1 Basics - How to make a gif in PS at all #2 Sharpen - How to use sharpen/denoise filters in an easy way #3 Colouring - Just a few very basic adjustment layers

What you need:

A video (most common formats should work, although .mkv doesn’t always)

Photoshop (I use PS CC 2018 - this one because I'm morally opposed to Adobe’s subscription model - but versions aren’t super different from each other)

In the end, you should hopefully be able to make something like this:

This is gonna be so long. Sorry. You can make a gif with just part #1! The rest is just to make it look better.

#1 Basics

If any of the tools/functions aren’t where they should be for you, your best bet is googling it, you might need to change something in your preferences!

Make sure to save your PS file... often. PS has a tendency to crash, especially on laptops.

First, you need to get the video file. I recommend a shorter video, a few minutes long, if it’s longer you might want to cut it into shorter parts beforehand. This is just because PS’s video import tool sucks.

I chose the Butter MV, specifically Jungkook’s body roll at 1:24 because that’s what I want to look at for the duration of this tutorial. No further questions, thanks.

1. Open PS, go to File > Import > Video Frames to Layers

2. In the little pop-up, choose the part of the video that you want to gif. This will import every frame of the video into PS as a layer, so it has to be a relatively short part, or it’ll take ages (and gifs can’t be that big anyway). Now you can also see why it’s almost impossible to select the correct part if the video is too long.

The little controls at the bottom are for trimming, the one in the middle just for the preview. Make sure “Make Frame Animation” is selected! Then click OK.

3. Now you have your layers, and you have a frame animation! On the right are your layers, that’s where we’ll apply the colouring etc. later on. On the bottom, that’s your timeline or frame animation - that’s what the gif will be in the end! So if you delete frames, the layers will still be there, but they won’t show up in the gif. If you click on a frame, you can see the little eye checkmark on the layer that’s currently visible.

4. The timeline controls at the bottom that are relevant right now: set to “forever” so the gif will loop, you can play the animation with the play button, and you can delete the selected frame(s). The number on each frame is the speed of the gif, depending on the video I usually set it to 0.05 or 0.06 (photoshop lies to you when you play the animation, the only way to test this is to open the finished gif, preferably on tumblr or wherever you want to upload it).

5. As you can see, the animation starts a bit before the actual part that I want, so go ahead and delete all the frames in the animation that you don’t want! You can delete the corresponding layers too if you want, to make the PS file smaller, but it has no influence on the gif. (Hold Shift to select multiple frames as usual)

6. Next, we’re gonna crop the gif however we want! You can do this with the crop tool in the left sidebar, but with gifs like this where there’s a lot of moving parts, I sometimes just use the selection tool in the left sidebar, like so:

When you click on different frames, the selection stays, and you can check to make sure Jungkook doesn’t suddenly go out of frame if you crop it like that!

At this point, make sure the selection/crop isn’t smaller than you want the gif to be! For tumblr, what matters is the width (in pixels) of gifs. In the end, the width dimensions on tumblr should be 540px (1 gif per row), 268px (2 gifs per row), or 177/178px (3 gifs per row). Anything else will lead to very shitty resizing!

For this gif I’m going full sized, meaning 540px wide, so I made sure my selection isn’t smaller than that.

Then just go to Image > Crop, and it’s done!

7. Check to see if this is what you want, then resize: go to Image > Image Size to resize the picture. Make sure the little “link” between Width and Height is active (to keep the same aspect ratio), then set the width to 540px or whatever you chose. I always set the resample option to Bicubic.

Once that’s done, set the zoom to 100% right above the timeline, to see what it really looks like.

Almost done! A little note about the sizing: width is the important part for tumblr, but if you want to make a whole gif set (especially with more than 1 gif per row!!!) make sure to make all the gifs the same height, otherwise they won’t line up and tumblr will do whatever it wants.

I ended up making mine 540 x 400 and ended up with this:

8. Time to save the gif!! Go to File > Export > Save for Web (OR just use the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Alt + S) (or whatever it is on Mac).

In the pop-up, you can change things about the gif, but most things should already be the way you want it (Image size, Looping option forever). Selective should be the default, just like the rest.

You can choose between Pattern and Diffusion, some gif makers swear on one or the other, I go back and forth.

On the bottom left, you can see the size of your gif. Keep an eye on that! I believe Tumblr allows every single gif to be up to 10mb, but I try to keep mine under 5mb or close to it, because I think tumblr adds compression if it gets closer to 10mb?? Anyway back in my day you couldn’t upload anything over 1mb. You’ll never know our struggles.

Then just save it, and that’s it, you made a gif! Well done!! Here’s the end result:

:)

#2 Sharpen

There are countless ways out there to make gifs as smooth and clean as possible! Here I’ll show you the easiest way, but it also provides a good basis for other methods. The main difficulty is that you you need to sharpen the layers, but you don’t want to 100 layers one by one. So what we’re gonna do is convert the layers into a Smart Object, which functions as one layer!

1. Convert the frame animation timeline to a video timeline with the little button right underneath on the left:

It should look like this, and I’m sorry but I can’t explain this one because I’m not an expert here, but you can just ignore it:

2. Select all layers: Select > All Layers, or just manually. 

Then right click on the layers > Convert to Smart Object. Now there’s only one layer left, but don’t worry, the frames are still there!

3. De-noise! It reduces noise, takes away some of that grain. More necessary in some videos. It also makes it less sharp, so I do this one first. Filter > Noise > Reduce Noise

My default settings are, Strength: 6, Preserve Details: 60, Reduce Color Noise: 45, Sharpen Details: 25, Remove JPEG Artifact: No. But you can play around, especially with the strength, and see how the little preview looks. Don’t apply too much of it! Or it will look weirdly smooth with no details in the end.

4. File > Sharpen > Smart Sharpen. 

Settings: I usually have mine at Amount: 500, Reduce Noise: 5, and Radius at either 0.2 or 0.3, depending on the video. I’ll actually do 0.3 here, because I find it a bit blurry otherwise. If you sharpen more, it can quickly get grainy.

The difference isn’t huge, but here’s a little before and after denoise & sharpen:

5. Technically you can just save it as a gif (save for web) as shown above now, or you can convert it back to a frame animation, which I’d recommend especially if you use certain other sharpening methods (I’ll show you how to convert it back at the end of the colouring part), but for now, let’s go straight to the next part:

#3 Colouring

Now, you CAN do this part right after part #1, still in frame animation, without a smart object. I prefer it like this because sometimes PS acts weird, but if you want to skip the smart object stuff: select all frames, and add the adjustment layers at the very top, above all the other layers. (It only affects selected frames; and it only affects the layers under it.)

The adjustment layers should be above the layer tray, and these are the ones we’ll use today: Brightness/Contrast, Curves, Vibrance, Color Balance, Selective Color.

All of these are optional! You can do one, or all, or any combination. This is just the very most basic for me to get a gif to a point that I like. I’d recommend sticking to these for a start, but once you get the hang of it, definitely feel free to play around! It’s fun! Every gif maker has different preferences here, too, so there’s tutorials for everything.

1. Curves: Just click Auto, tbh. You can play around, but Auto works fine for me as a start, just to brighten or darken some parts as a base.

2. Brightness/Contrast: Usually videos are a bit dark, and contrast can help to make it seem sharper AND cut down on gif size, so I usually just up both of them a bit (but not too much! Or it’ll look cheap). Here I put them at B: 19, C: 23

3. Vibrance: I love very vibrant and colourful gifs, so I usually up the vibrance (and sometimes the saturation). This one is already very vibrant, so I only put +5, but if you try to colour, say, a very moody tv show, this can help wonders, especially if you want to work with the colours more later.

If you prefer less vibrant gifs, you can also lower the values here!

4. Color Balance: getting a bit more complicated now. Often, videos will have a slight yellow or green or blue tint, and this is where you can correct that. This video is a bit yellow, so I added +17 Blue. It was still too warm, so i added -11 Cyan as well. This neutralized the yellow tint, but I wanted some of the reddish tone back, so I added -5 Magenta. I usually do a similar process like that, depending on the tone. 

Instead of Midtones, you can also do this for Shadows and Highlights individually.

5. Selective Color: now this is the most complicated, but also the most fun to play around in my opinion! Be careful here, if you do something too extreme it’ll look like shit or make the gif super grainy. I some rough goals in mind here: make the blue hair as blue as possible, make their skin tone a bit less pale, and enhance the black and white (which I always do).

You choose a colour at the top, and then add or subtract cyan/magenta/yellow/black values for that colour.

Skin tone: yellow and red. For this gif, I just added black to both, making them darker. Sometimes, if you change one or both those colours for a different part of the gif (for example, if I wanted to make the background less yellow, I’d subtract yellow from the yellows - but then I’d add yellow to the reds, to make the skin tone natural again.)

Blue hair: Just ramp up the cyan for the blues. Be careful with putting anything to +100, but here it’s already so bright that it should be fine. His roots are more purple, so I changed the magentas by adding cyan and black, and subtracting magenta and yellow. It’s not super clean, but fine for our purposes.

Black/white: depending on the gif, I often either add or subtract black to the whites. Adding makes the highlights less blinding, a bit darker, and flatter (I like to do that if one side of the face is bright white in the sunlight, for example). Subtracting creates contrast, makes it brighter, can wash it out. It can also lessen the gif size, and here it’s mostly just the tracksuit instead of important details, so I subtracted black. For the blacks, I almost always just add a bit of black, to make it more intense. Just like adding contrast, this can make the gif seem sharper and less grainy.

And done! 

6. You could just save it as gif now, but as I said, I prefer to convert it back to frame animation timeline first, if only because I like to let it play through before I save it, and it works better for me there than in the video timeline.

Select all frames, then click the little menu on the top right of the video timeline > Convert Frames > Flatten Frames into Clips

7. When you scroll down to the bottom of the layers now, the old smart object + adjustment layers should be at the bottom, under all the new layers. Delete the old ones, we don’t need them anymore.

8. Convert the timeline back to frame animation, by clicking the little button at the bottom left of the video timeline:

9. Click on the menu top right of the timeline again > Make Frames from Layers

10. Now, just some potential cleaning left to do. Sometimes, there’s a doubled or empty frame or layer at the beginning or end, just delete those as necessary. The timing of the frames is probably off, too, just select all frames and set the delay time to 0.05 (or whatever).

Now your done! Save as gif, and you should get this:

I included some bonus links and tips after this but tumblr ate that whole part so I guess it’s going into a separate post. (Here is is)

Anyway, I tried to make this as easy to follow as possible for beginners, but feel free to send me an ask for clarification anytime. Hope this helps, now go make gifs and have fun!!
