mmh I don't know if this is really an American term, it's just something I found on google after seeing a movie that I really liked, headcannons related to a "pollyanna" mc that apparently means someone who has the ability to focus only on him positive side and just like in the movie, mc teaches the boys the "happy game" The game is to find something to be happy about in every situation, no matter how bleak it is, I feel that many of the pararai boy lack some uvur optimism for my fav group TWC<3
hello! thank you for your request. i have not heard of this movie before, but what a sweet concept! these moody boys definitely need some cheering up once in a while, haha. please take good care. ❤️
note: fem. reader
genre: romance/fluff.
characters: naoakira saimon. yohei kanbayashi. ryu natsume. shiki ando.
saimon:
there’ve been plenty of times he’s felt bleak and alone. whether it’s memories of his last love emerging, or feeling helpless seeing his young wards distraught over little things in life, saimon is indeed a sensitive, caring man who tends to place more on his shoulders if it meant relieving someone of it. with this comes a heavier sense of duty on the mind, one he’s not always able to address properly. however, you help him do just so.
in times of distress, you and your sweet words bring a soothing cloud to his jumbled mind. your innocuous game is easy enough, and simple so he’s able to play even if you’re not around. saimon is willing to learn from your positive outlook, finds it useful for when he’s caught up in his own ordeals. he appreciates the way you see the world and hopes to feel as you do someday.
yohei:
the worst things in life are what yohei’s prepared himself for, seeing how often they come to fruition; losing family, fighting for survival, a lost love unrequited. yohei is never quite the optimist you yourself have come to be, but finds himself drawn to the sweet simple way you look at life. there is an envy, almost, his over how happily you go through days, never dragged down by weight of sin’s past. you are never without a hope or a wish.
it’s silly, yohei thinks, this cutesy, wishy-washy game of yours. you want him of all people to play along? it’s only at your insistence (and perhaps kisses) that he begrudgingly agrees to play. he’ll struggle at first, needing your insight to help him decide just why little moments spark joy. it’s a game he’s yet to master on his own. but slowly, slowly, does he learn to play even without your gentle guidance.
ryu:
there isn’t much that brings ryu down. he is utterly carefree and impassive of the things around him, his world being far better to spend time in. he is perhaps a great match for you in this sense, in sharing this ever positive outlook. but even he has secrets of his own, unlike the chaos and play of his usual self. there are times he becomes inexplicably downtrodden, always over memories blurring into millions of fragments. surely your game brightens his day, helps him to realize you’re always there besides him.
games! games! games! if there’s anything ryu likes, it’s a good game. he’s made up plenty on his own, but he’s happy to try yours out. he’s already very good at picking out good and great things that happen in his day — he likes to imagine plucking them like flowers to bring to you later, to prove he’s a master of your fun, happy game. ryu often visits you just to tell of his day and his findings, in every and all detail, and it’s all thanks to you.
shiki:
pessimism is perhaps too familiar a foe for shiki. it is a mindset ingrained in him for so long, he’s hardly known any other way to live. it is with the support of his family that he’s improving as he grows, and knowing you care for him despite all his flaws, too. you two are likely the most unusual pairing, opposites attracting and all. you are every bit as happy as he is gloomy, but somehow you’re able to bring out the best in him regardless.
he takes your game very seriously, wholeheartedly taking account of your thoughtfulness in teaching him. shiki tries his hardest to play even when you’re not around to encourage him, with varying results. but he’s grateful for the second instinct you’ve instilled in him, to look for positives with his negative eyes. he knows he has a lot of work to do to get over his moody disposition, but as long as he has you, your happy game, maybe it won’t be so bad to get through.

omg thank u for answering. I am interested in any Liverpool ships & fics that are well written 😆 lol whatever fics you like!
Ok!! I mostly wanted to clarify that you were into football slash and not x reader 😅 Both are fine but I only have recs for one 😊
I kept this to recently active writers to make it manageable. Also I tried to complete this without too much thought because otherwise I would spiral but I’m so afraid I forgot someone obvious so apologies in advance 🙏
My favourite (mostly) Liverpool writers are, in alphabetical order:
@blowthemoonout / halfacre
@brinywxter
@erlingshaalands / preachingdoll
@footnotesandendings / inlovewithnight
@immortaltale / perfectpride
januarysveryown
@kloppinthekop
@konstantinostsimikas / anon on ao3 but fic is “static”
@mebiselfandi / peachpulp
suoh
@tl-trashtalk
@trentxaa / baozibb
@ollieflopkins / selkathyouth
@walkon-throughtherain / stardust_66

I do think it’s so cool that we meet Natalie in the adult timeline at a point after she’s already lost Travis. Like she doesn’t know she’s lost him when we meet her but we the viewer know on rewatch that she’s already seen him for the last time. And like him as the person she’s built her life around and who has been her closest confidante for 25 years and by the time we meet her she is already going beyond the bounds of the way she has lived since the woods, she has to find a new way to live, the old way is dead and it doesn’t work anymore. and honestly the same can be said for the others too — the ways they’ve been coping are faltering. shauna kills adam because of how hard she’s not coping. taissa blows up her marriage because of how hard she’s not coping. misty’s life has been defined by isolation and here she is building genuine connection with nat.
like the thing about yellowjackets being that the past all already happened they can’t change it they’re stuck in this cycle and they can’t break . and ALSO at the same time as that we are meeting them in a moment when they do not know what they are becoming. their timeline is fixed and their timeline is in flux and they don’t have any understanding of where they’re going. the show as a closed loop (by the time we finish out the ‘96 timeline of the last season we know we will one day just arrive back at the ‘21 timeline of the first season) and the show as this infinite black hole of inexorable becoming (the ‘21 timeline of the first season spinning off into the distance of all this life and change that the ‘96 characters in all their despair and desolation could never dream of, they don’t know how much more suffering there is, they don’t know how much more joy there is either. )

you know next to galeria krakowska there’s a intersection of sorts where the right of passage has the car driving from kurniki into the pawia road and not the car that’s driving straight on the pawia road right…… the amount of goddamn times someone tried to drive into me because they thought they were on the main road is astonishing. today i had to beep at the lady in the giant bmw suv who made a face at me like i’m the crazy one… if that thing crashed into my small sedan that’d be it……. awful place
