Yeah haha. Technically his full name is Night Hunter, Bringer of Darkness, but it feels so weirdly formal calling him that, so I usually stick to just Night.

Hahaaaaa.... my mother found out ive been slowly dyeing my ginger patches black...

Why would you do that??? Being a tortie is so cool, I wish I had ginger patches! They're so pretty, why do you want to get rid of them???

Uhm. Gender dysphoria??

Like. I know cis male tortoiseshells exist but they're so rare that most cats take one look at me and go "oh, tortie, must be a girl" and that hurts.

You're fine <3 I get it. And no, she uh.. has no clue why I did it, she thinks I'm in my "emo phase" or something.

I can't be the only one here who thinks it's unfair to allow kittypets on this site. Posting pictures of themselves and their mates inside of the twolegplace, influencing the young kits on this site to abandon their Clans... surely everyone else sees the problem with this as well.

This is Clanblr, not "Kittypetblr". This was specifically made as a space for Clan cats to connect, not for kittypets to push their lifestyle on us.

They're going to convince our kits to abandon their home and their belief in StarClan just for a more secure life.

#EXACTLY #I only recently found out ex-tc Kipper was a kittypet #it was so upsetting to me because i've always loved his wood-scratch art #to find out he's a clan-abandoner was so saddening

The recent drama surrounding Kipper the Kittypet is sad and I hate that he's being bashed just for existing, but it's also incredibly stupid. I believe the cat who wrote the original post said something like, "it's CLANblr, not KITTYPETblr," and then something about belief in StarClan and I just... do you even realize how many Clanblr mods are non-Clan and/or don't believe in StarClan?

To name a few, @s-t-a-r-burning is former WindClan now rogue & openly an atheist, @theshadowhaseyes has been a kittypet his whole life, and @ssuunnrraayy-p has made zir entire blog about how ze travels from one Clan to another & doesnt consider zimself a Clan cat. Those are all mods. "It's clanblr no-" shut up. Just shut up.

I think a lot of cats put way too much emphasis on the parts of the warrior code that dont matter, and forget the parts that do, like "feed elders and kits first" and "never neglect a kit in pain or danger"... I feel like those are significantly more important than "a warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet," but maybe that's just me.

I feel like we don't talk enough about how SkyClan got chased out of their own territory during a time of crisis rather than all of the Clans trying to make room for everyone...

I mean, seriously. I know it's taught to all SkyClan apprentices, but I've talked to some of my friends from other Clans and they just. Didn't know that. They were never taught that the other Clans allowed SkyClan to be chased out due to territory loss.

🔲 sstep-xoxo-deactivated

:/ im pretty sure the whole thing about skclan being kicked out of their territory is just a conspiracy theory

:/ I do not like being stuck on the wrong site.

[dovveri]

not officially putting this as a request but do what you want with this 😂😂 i just think sana’s the type to be whiney asf when u tell her she can’t kiss u cause u’re wearing a cap and that she’d hit her head when she leans in sOooo as payback, she’d tell you that you can’t kiss her when she’s wearing specs because you’ll just bump your nose on the frame 😂😂😂😂

effervescent

synopsis: sana’s mad bcs you won’t let her kiss you when ur wearing a cap in public :(

warnings: puuuuure fluff + suggestive towards the end

w/c: 1.1k

a/n: its funny i actually had this exact thought the day before the anon sent this in but i couldnt say it bcs it wasnt long enough for a fic but then this came in and i went what da hell i can do a short lil piece ^,^

𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶָ𐀔

sana was an affectionate person. and an even more affectionate girlfriend. she absolutely loved clinging on to you, hugging you, kissing you, even in public she had no qualms with cuddling, being sickeningly in love, she loved it even more when you’d get embarrassed and shy, cooing at how cute you were, pinching your cheeks teasingly.

no matter where you where, if you were in her near vicinity, she’d find some way to get a hand on you, or slide into your lap, until you were sharing skin-to-skin contact she would refuse to leave you alone.

that also meant she would get pouty and adorably sad whenever you rejected her advances.

like now.

“baaaby gimme a kiss.”

“can’t baby i’m wearing a cap.”

“soooo? come hereee-“ she’s pulling you into her, craning her neck so she can kiss you but she knocks her head against the front of your cap, whining and pulling away immediately, cradling her forehead.

you giggle, “i told you baby.”

“just take off your cap then.” she’s pouting and looking up at you with a frown. you’d be lying if you said you didn’t like teasing her to get her looking this adorable for you.

“no can do. we’re in public sweetie the paps will get us.”

“i don’t care about them!”

“well i do.” you boop her nose lovingly, internally squealing at the way her nose scrunches in response, “you will not be making headlines for making out with one of your fans in public.”

“you’re not my fan anymore! you’re my girlfriend now!”

“not to the public i’m not.”

“then we can come out as a couple.” she’s determined with her statement, a cute crease coming to rest between her eyebrows as she starts thinking around how to do exactly that.

“noo baby your company would never allow that. besides i’m fine being yours in private. and i wouldn’t want to jeopardise your career anyway. and before you can say i won’t- i will, i love you but your fans are kinda insane.”

sana pouts, “fine.” she stomps away not saying anything else but you know it’s fine because she’s still holding your hand and pulling you along even when she may be a little annoyed you won’t let her kiss you in public.

𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶָ𐀔

"sana! i'm home!"

"okaeri!"

you slip off your shoes, padding into the living room where you heard your girlfriend's voice coming from, smiling at her in her reading glasses pouring over a set of papers spread on your coffee table.

"hi baby, what are you doing?"

"reading over these contracts the company sent. how was your day?"

"good. better now i'm home with you." you lean down to kiss her in greeting, but at the last second she turns her head so your lips land on her cheek.

you pout, bringing a hand up to her face to turn her back to you but she refuses, adamant on not looking at you.

"baby what's wrong?"

"nothing."

"something's wrong. did i do something? i swear i put my clothes in the laundry this morning."

"nothing's wrong."

you frown, crouching down fully to squat next to her. “if nothing’s wrong why won’t you kiss me?”

“i’m wearing specs.”

you’re silent for a second, “…okay…?”

“yeah.”

“um… are they new? i’m sorry if i didn’t notice. you look gorgeous whatever you’re wearing so i’m always stunned by you!” you try and joke with her but receive no reaction, coughing awkwardly and trying to cover up, “but they look nice!”

“thank you. they’re not new.”

“oh… right so…”

“i’m wearing specs. that’s why i won’t kiss you.”

“oh! wait why won’t you kiss me?”

she sighs, finally looking at you, “i told you. i’m wearing specs.”

“okay and? i’ve kissed you before while you’ve been wearing glasses.” you start to smile again, thinking she’s just teasing you, leaning in again but you’re shocked when she turns away with a huff, pushing her frames up her nose and picking up another page of paper.

“okay what the hell.” you snatch the papers out of her hand.

“hey!”

you ignore her protests. sliding into her lap and wrapping your hands around her neck, all while she still refuses to look at you or even touch you, her hands falling limp to her side after you take her papers away from her, then using them to lean back and away from you with a pout.

you can't have any of that so you pull on her neck gently, urging her forward.

"you're interrupting my work." she's got that slightly annoyed tone in her voice, but you know better.

"you're interrupting my kisses."

"i told you i'm wearing glasses so i can't kiss you right now. you'll bump your nose on the frame."

you frown, "no i won't."

"yes you will."

before she can react you lean in and steal a quick peck, breaking away with a giggle when she finally looks at you, only to gape at you in shock.

"y/n!"

"see? didn't bump my nose or anything."

"you weren't meant to kiss me!"

"why not?"

"because i didn't get to kiss you when you were wearing a cap so you don't get to kiss me when i'm wearing specs."

"wha- is that what this is about?"

"yes!"

you laugh, throwing your head back, still clinging on to her, "awwwh oh my god you really are a baby." you grin cheekily before dipping in again, stealing another kiss, then another, holding her face between your hands and pecking her all over her face, on her specs too while she whines and tries to push you off. "my baby." you finish with another kiss on her lips, giggling when you break away and have her chasing after you now to prolong your kiss.

"'m not a baby."

"yes you are."

"no i'm not."

"yes you are."

"no! i'm not!"

you laugh, letting her have it, patting her cheek affectionately that's now puffed out in a pout, "i'm sorry for not letting you kiss me while i was wearing a cap okay? you have full permission to do whatever you want to me next time i'm wearing one."

she raises an eyebrow, a smirk slowly appearing on her lips, "anything?"

you immediately become wary, shirking away from her but her hands come up to grip at your hips keeping you in her lap, "anything within reason of course."

"so if i can make riding your face in public sound reasonable... anything goes."

you snort, face immediately going bright red, “i don’t know how you could ever convince me to do that sana.”

“you’ll be surprised at how persuasive i can be then.” she’s grinning now, looking adorably innocent in her wide frame glasses and oversized sleep shirt but suggesting completely devilish things.

you groan, pushing away from her and out of her lap, but not before she laughs, pulling you in again and kissing you, no longer caring that she’s still wearing her glasses that now have your lipstick mark printed on them.

Hi boo(i hope that was not too cringe)! Could you pls do a percy jackson, enemies to lovers! story? Like in everyone in the Camp knows their hatred against each other but then they get send on a quest together and end up kissing each other to disguise their quest?!

I would really appreciate it!

Have a good Day!

pairing: percy jackson x gn! reader (2nd pov is used but someone does say 'chick')

summary: much to your displeasure, you find yourself on a quest with the one person you hate the most.

warning(s): BICKERING. mutual pining (they just don't know it yet.), kissing, swearing, enemies to lovers.

a/n: IT WASNT CRINGE DWW HAHA, i tried my best!! school starts for me pretty soon so im trying to write as much as i can before i have to go back.. (also im sorry abt the images i dont know whats going on with my computer.)

you hated them, everyone of them.

that wretched camp and it's obnoxious staff oh, and don't even get you started on that stupid oracle. she set you up! they all did.

gods, why of all people did it have to be him?

perseus jackson - most of the time shortened to just percy jackson, maybe even peter johnson at times. what an ass he was.

believe it or not when you first came to camp half-blood you had actually taken a liking to him. he was cute, full of energy and full of endless bravery, your exact type.

you weren't sure when it begun, your hatred for him, that is. it kind of just..started. when? not sure. your exact guess must've been that one valentine's day when he accidentally sneaked the last muffin at breakfast. yeah, that must've been it.

to be honest though, you didn't need a reason. you just did, and you weren't exactly quiet about it either. from the day you started to hate his guts all his advances to be nice to you were met with a glare or a huff. sometimes you'd just straight up walk away from him.

so, it basically didn't take him long to send you back the same glares or huffs or even the smallest mutter of 'geez, not this chick again..' everyone hoped the feud would dissipate, that the two of you would grow the fuck up and call a truce.

too bad their prayers didn't help.

infact, you were pretty sure that even if the gods themselves came down from olympus and said 'get along or die right here' you'd pick the latter in a heartbeat.

so, when you'd initially been called into chiron for some 'great news' you'd expected him to tell you that percy had finally decided to leave camp - or that you'd won the lottery. fuck, you wished that was it.

"hey, stay on your side, bucko!" you said, nudging percy to the side aggressively. "i'm not on the market, especially for you."

"can you be serious for second!" percy snapped back, his eyebrows furrowed in frustration. "we have to prove to chiron that we can do this." he turned back to face the front. "or...we're in for another lecture."

"i wouldn't mind, really," you grinned. "i've perfected the art of sleeping with my eyes open."

"if only you could perfect the art of silence.."

you glared at him.

the two of you were submerged underwater at the moment in one of percy's bubbles. chiron had asked of you to go to queens in order to do..something? you didn't really pay attention to chiron at the time - besides, you were thinking about drowning yourself in the nearest lake when you'd heard the percy going on the quest with you in tow. the only thing you could remember was that it was super important to not let anyone see you.

something about the appearance of two demigod children to monster being dangerous? you weren't sure why he thought the things wouldn't be able to sniff you out anyways.

the bubble wasn't even your idea to be fair. you'd suggested just taking the train, as it much easier but percy disagreed - as usual. said it would be quicker to just swim over via bubble transfer and although you wanted to disagree, you settled on the idea that the station at this time would be packed as hell.

so you bit your tongue and allowed yourself to be trapped in a bubble with percy for about a half an hour or so.

"ugh, how much longer..?" you asked, adjusting your clothes uneasily. the bubble wasn't by any means uncomfortable just..kind of warm? weirdly enough. percy didn't spare you a glance only opting to shurg his shoulder slightly as he focused on the vast ocean in front of the two of you.

you glared at him from your spot in the bubble, uncomfortably crossing your legs as you turned away from him, jumping when you realized a never before seen fish was staring into your soul from outside the bubble. it wasn't a surprise to you to see the fish, percy was the son of poseidon, you expected him to go full aquaman one day and pull up to camp half blood with a stream of wild dolphins and squids.

still, the beady little dead eyes scared the shit out of you. and in your natural knee jerk reflex, you moved back, inching into percy and bumping his shoulder. he turned to face you with a distasteful look, face contorting in confusion when he noticed the small school of fish now gathering.

your face morphed into one of uncomfort as you gazed at the tons of fish that seemed to spawn out of nowhere. "uh..can you call your friends off?"

percy seemed to share a look with the fish, a look of embarrassment flashing over his face briefly as he glared at them intensely. you looked on at the exchange in silence because, was he really talking to fishes? the fish eventually scrammed after a while and you and percy were back on your way. silence fell over the two of you before you spoke up suddenly.

"i didn't know you spoke fish.."

"drop it."

"i think we're here." percy annouced as the bubble started to drift closer to shore. were you guys there? you weren't sure at all. you were just happy to be out of that bubble - the close proximity was making you break out.

you were in fact there, somehow. and it was by then it hit you that this was a quest - a really important mission for a demigod and since it was assigned to specifically you and percy, it meant you had to deliver.

your duo walked towards the city, looking around for any suspicious looking civilians or any sign of irregular activity. it would've been an easy task to scope out the objective of the mission if it wasn't for percy's loud breathing.

seriously, you could hear him practically breathing down your neck as the two of you walked. him and his stupid big nostrils - you couldn't focus.

"mind breathing a little less loud?"

percy blinked at you. "these requests are starting to get literally concerning." his face contorted in confusion. "how the hell does one 'breathe a little less loud' ?"

"they not be percy jackson."

"that wasn't even english??"

you were about to say something else smart when a couple of people ahead caught your attention, they weren't inherently weird looking but, you got this vibe from them - that they weren't completely human. your mind raced as you looked around as nonchalantly as you could.

there were people here. to your right, 2 parents and their one hyperactive son who clawed at the ice cream in front of him with his tongue, a bright smile on his face and to your left a group of younger looking teenage girls who were chatting brightly. most likely about hair dye because their highlights were so bright they were giving you eye cancer.

you thought fast. pulling percy by his wrist as you dashed down the street, rushing into the nearest store slash tourist attraction you could as you pushed him into the corner roughly, looking behind you to see if the people had followed you.

he gave you a completely surprised look, slight annoyance forming on his face as he exhaled heavily. "is there any reason you felt like dragging me into this.." he looked around, eyes landing on a random cowboy hat that was situated on a hook in the corner of the place. "slightly..cool place?" he finished, grabbing the cowboy hat and observing it curiously.

"i saw them, well - i think i did.." you mumbled out, looking around erratically as you watched out for any signs of being followed. percy quirked an eyebrow at you.

"the IRS finally caught you orr.."

"percy, this is serious!" you exclaimed, growing slightly embarrassed when the store owner shot the two of you a look. you smiled at the owner awkwardly, ushering percy into a corner with your hand.

"look, i'm pretty sure i found the guys we were going here for." you said, still stealing glances behind you. "i saw them..just now, when were walking."

"did they follow us?" percy asked, more seriously now.

"i'm not sure," you frowned.

percy thought for a moment before speaking once more."they wouldn't do anything with all these humans here - we just have to make sure we blend in."

"and how do you suppose we do that?"

percy grinned at you, reaching over to grab another hat that was right next to the one he'd picked up earlier.

you grimaced, who's idea was it to put you two together?

"do you think we lost them?"

"nah, we definitely still need the disguises."

the two of you were situated on the street currently, attempting to look as normal as possible. though, it was pretty hard to with these stupid cowboy hats percy insisted the two of you had to wear. claimed it would be "inconspicuous" but in reality it was extremely, eye catching.

you figured he just wanted you to wear it so he could laugh behind your back about how utterly foolish you looked. it didn't help that he'd picked out the hat with the corniest design for you - and it was bedazzled.

you let of a huff of frustration. "can we switch? this one's too big on me., i'm half blind here, man."

"you'll live," percy reassured. "besides, it's better if they can't see your face."

"what's the use? they'll just sniff us out eventually."

percy shot you a look. "you're no fun."

you opened your mouth to say something when percy's face changed as he locked eyes with something behind you. you barely had time to react when he pulled you into a brutal bear hug, turning you away from whatever it was that was behind you.

your muscles tensed as your face started to burn with embarrassment. a "what the fuck, percy?" was muffled into his shirt as you felt the presence of the monsters nearing closer. your heart sank to your feet as realized how near they were really.

"whatever i do.." percy whispered in your ear. "just promise you won't be too mad."

"what're you talk-"

and then before you knew it, you'd lost your lip virginity. i mean, it wasn't the worst first kiss story you'd have to tell people. boy kissed me in order to distract the bloodthirsty monsters that were tracking us down! wow, how romantic.

in all honesty, you knew percy just did what he had to do. you knew he just had to keep you to keep your disguises up. that was probably the rest why you leaned into the kiss, hands coming up to rest on his chest as his brutal bear hug eased into more a gentle hug, his hands moving the hold your hips.

the kiss had to look real - romantic. that's why you pretend to be so into it that you let out a satisfied hum. you weren't sure if the monsters had moved on from the two of you, you weren't even sure if you were safe at all in the moment. but, it was starting to get hard to think as your mind swirled with various conflicting thoughts that stemmed from your actions at the moment.

percy broke the kiss, his eyes gazing into your curiously as he removed his hands from your hips slowly. you removed your hand from his chest, pulling away gently. your eyes searched his own for any sign of discomfort or disgust as you started to grow weary of the fact he'd just stolen your first kiss.

yet, you were surprised to find that there was none - just confusion and surprise. you tore your eyes away from him, clearing your throat. as you fixed your outfit. "i..i think i saw them go somewhere over there." you pointed at the secluded alleyway not too far from where you and percy stood. "let's go - we can get the drop on them."

percy stared at you for a moment before nodding, slightly dazed and following you towards the alleyway silently.

the ride back home - or should you say float back home was silent, as it always was. though, something different seemed to be hanging in the air this time. a feeling of awkwardness that was mostly unnatural to you and percy.

you wanted to ask about it - the kiss, why did he do it? why was that first thing he came up with? why did he lean into you slightly? why did the world seemed to stop for a second when your lips met and most of all whyyy the hell did you want it to happen again?

you stole a glance at percy. the two of you were a few feet away from each other, on opposite sides of the bubble. maybe you were going crazy or something but did percy look..good? you swore it was just because of the mixed feelings you had about him being your first but you couldn't shake the thought about how beautiful he looked in the moment.

okay, something's not right.

"do you wanna talk about it?" you blurted out suddenly, shifting positions as you leaned forward slightly. percy turned to look at you, he wasn’t annoyed nor angry, not even suicidal. he looked, enamored — and slightly caught off guard by your question.

"talk about what exactly?"

your eyebrows furrowed. "you kissed me, percy jackson." you pointed at him accusingly. "and you liked it."

percy blew a raspberry, a slightly surprised look on his face. "what makes you think i liked it?"

you paused. had you read something wrong? you thought about dropping the idea but thought against it, deciding to die on that hill. "because your hands somehow found their way onto my hips," you started. "and your lips pursed — and your heartbeat picked up little by the little the longer it lasted."

you crossed your legs, inching away from percy as you gave him a small frown. "and..you looked at me weird." percy's face was flushed as he looked at you silently from his position on the other side of the bubble.

"how did i look at you..?"

you glanced at him. "like you didn't want to drown me in the lake and leave my body for the fishes." you joked. "like..you didn't hate me."

"i don't hate you."

your head spun towards percy, your eyes widened comically. you opened your mouth to say something but the words were caught in your throat. percy analyzed you before speaking once more.

"i don't think i ever have, it's just - you're very annoying." percy sighed. "and it sucks because you're more attractive than you think you are." you stared at him in silence. your heart pounded in your chest as you gulped.

"do you like me?"

"do you like me?" percy repeated with emphasis on the me.

you laughed, inching towards percy on the other side of the bubble. "i do." you stopped in front of him, a warm smile on your face as you watched a smile break out onto his face. "i like you too." he whispered, staring at you quietly before leaning forward slightly to test the waters.

you instantly took the bait, leaning forward as well as you locked lips with percy one again. a bolt of lightning shot through you as you leaned into his touch, placing your hand on his shoulder as you climbed into his lap. percy seemed more than happy to have you there, his hands coming to rest on your hips so he could keep you steady.

you broke the kiss, hands slithering around his neck as you looked down at him with a small smile. you were about to say something when your attention was brought to the sickly sight of a line of fish outside the bubble once again. you yelped in surprise, stumbling back slightly and if it wasn't for percy's grip on you, you probably would've busted your ass.

percy looked behind him, slightly annoyed at the presence of the fish. it lingered for a bit longer before dashing off reluctantly. at which point, percy turned to you with a frown. you eyed him curiously.

"what?"

"he's going to tell everyone about the '2 demigods getting it on in the bottom of the sea'. "

[shewhotellsstories]

People say Eloise is a self centered white feminist who enjoys the privileges that come with being a Bridgerton and although that's true, she is also a sheltered teenage girl who needs to learn about the world.

Her feelings of marriage are valid and while she needs to learn that desiring motherhood and marriage doesn't make a woman lesser, it's part of growing up and learning true feminism. She's a baby feminist but viewers don't want her to grow. How many teenage girls in today's day and age are all-knowing about feminism theory? Her friendship with Theo taught her about the working class and that connection to the outside world could have been a great learning experience for Eloise. Yes she has the privilege of being a Bridgerton but that safety net is exactly why she should be allowed to advocate for things the way she wanted Whistledown to(not a critique of the character but rather the writing and the fandom)

Penelope did some selfish things as Whistledown, abusing her power (cause it wasn't just about being gossip girl for the bag) and rather than acknowledge that we're expected to sweep it under the rug. I LOVE flawed characters because the writing acknowledges their wrong doings and yet certain characters get away with murder.

Eg s1 Blair was awful to Serena and while she had her reasons for doing so, revenge and her own self worth and abandonment issues, the show acknowledged this and we wanted good things for Blair. Serena slept with her best friend's boyfriend and covered up a mans overdose but we still root for her because she is a good person and is trying to grow.

If Penelope doesn't acknowledge her wrongdoings how can she grow as a character.

"Okay publishing a burn book is wrong but I love writing and I'm good at it, maybe I should become Jane Austin or something."

(throwing in how Edwina was raked over the coals for being angry with Kate and while the half sister comment was uncalled for, she wasnt given the same grace Penelope has been given)

I'm sorry for how long and all over the place this is.

No, I get it. The issue is that some characters are given grace while others are crucified. Some characters have their circumstances considered when examining their behavior while others don't. I hate it that some characters get novellas dedicated to defending their bad behavior while others should've just known better.

And that's totally the way I see Eloise Bridgerton. She's a baby feminist! She is in her just watched Ironed Jawed Angels and has maybe read a few zines era of feminism. When I was 17, I remember saying in class that I didn't think it was possible to be a SAHM and be happy and now my opinions have radically shifted because I'm not a kid anymore. Now, if you'd ask me I'd say it's a vulnerable position to be in economically because your security is tied up in your marriage working out and or your husband never dying, but it's your choice ultimately. What a difference a fully developed brain and college professors who require you to read bell hooks and Audre Lorde can make.

But seriously, the sad irony of Eloise being raked over the coals for "doing nothing" is that she was trying to become more informed and it blew up in her face. Spending time with Theo and other members of the working class was really good for her. Sadly, Penelope should've known better than most that she was genuinely trying to expand her worldview, but Eloise is the only person getting the bad friend allegations.

And yeah, as much as I love Kate and Anthony, people were way too hard on Edwina in season two. No one wanted to hurt her, but who in her position would toss confetti?

Plus, I'm really glad someone else is seeing the endless Gossip Girl comparisons that can be made here!

P.S. If you're interested one of my favorite Kanthony fics ends in Anthony and Kate encouraging Eloise to become a fiction/social commentary writer.

die with a smile

a hwang hyunjin short story

week five

though hyunjin was no longer staying in the hospital, that did not stop him from seeing you. everyday after his online classes he would make his was to you for the two hours left in visitation, sometimes the nurses would allow him to stay a little longer than usual.

over the couple of days, you were tired. you kept telling him to not worry and he tried not to, but deep down he worried. he always would try to get something out the nurses or your doctor, but it was the same excuse of "only her and her guardian" can only know.

even if you were tired your smile was still so bright that it would always make him smile.

today you wanted to go for a walk around the yard, and hyunjin let you leaned against him as both you slowly made your way looking around the flower beds. you stop slowly crouching down to smell the roses.

"i know it's very basic, but i do think roses are one of my favorites." you say touching the rose so softly, almost scared to ruin the beauty.

"why is that?" hyunjin asks crouching down right beside you. his face watching the features of yours, and the shine in your eyes.

"because they can convey how you feel based on the color. you know if i wasnt in here, sick, i would own a flower shop. i think they are so beautiful, and can say a lot to someone you give them to." you say struggling to stand up. hyunjin quickly pops to his feet, giving you a hand to stand.

"i mean, when you get out of here you can totally open one up, ill even be your first customer." hyunjin says leading you back to your room.

"yeah, that would be nice." you say softly.

its the day of hyunjins appointment and he felt good, he was hoping for some good news, or even no news about his condition. so he can make his way faster to see you.

on the way to the hospital, hyunjin stops at a near by flower shop. he wanted to surprise you.

"hi can i help you young man?" the older shop lady asked. staring at him as he looks at the arraignments of flowers in vases.

"yeah i want to give someone some flowers, i would actually like some red roses if thats okay?" hyunjin could feel the blush of his cheeks and could the warmth of his ears.

the lady smiles with a nod, walking to the back. after a few minutes she comes out with the flowers wrapped up. "confessing to someone lucky?"

"yeah something like that." hyunjin says blushing, paying his bill and rushing out the door.

hyunjin was sitting with his doctor not exactly paying attention to what exactly is he saying. he just wanted to see you, he was so used to having you around that not having you was lonely.

"hyunjin your charts are good, it looks like the medication is helping. no new changes but that could be a good sign as well." hyunjin nods

"if thats all can i go." he says already trying to get out his chair.

"yeah you are more than welcome to go, but there is som-" the doctor was cut off by hyunjin rushing out the door, he was not gonna wait. if it was important he will find the doctor later.

with roses in his hand, hyunjin rushes down the hall passing familiar nurses who give him sad smiles. hyunjin couldn't put his finger on it but the air in the hall was cold, dark and empty.

hyunjin saw your door open, rushing to it, hyunjin peeks around to see an empty bed. no not just an empty bed, empty walls. the paintings you painted were always hung. the sheets on your bed were folded waiting for someone new to occupy them. hyunjin felt his heart race. where were you. you were here yesterday. you were fine. you had to be fine.

letting the flowers fall to the ground hyunjin runs straight to jisungs room, not bothering with knocking. he pushes himself right in.

the scene in front of him made his worse fears feel like a reality.

jisung was crying in the arms of minho, minho tear stained face looks up at him and before he could say anything. hyunjin begins shaking his head.

"no." he was breaking " no no no" the tears were coming out before he could even realize.

"SHE WAS FINE. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT ROSES YESTERDAY AND HER FLOWER SHOP... no no she fine" hyunjin was full on crying, he felt like his world was crashing down.

"i didn't even get to tell her how i felt." hyunjin says in a whisper.

hyunjin didnt even realize he was crying on jisungs shoulder, he continued to cry with both his friends trying to soothe him.

after a while, hyunjin finally made it out of jisungs room, eyes red, nose running. he couldn't pass your room, not with you not in it. so he went the long way around. hyunjin let his feet do the walking while his mind wandered.

hyunjin found himself stopped at a certain door. yall's secret hideout.

hyunjin walked in the only form of light coming from the halls outside. hyunjin slowly reaches out, turning on the light.

what he first saw was your painting, the painting you were painting when he first found out you were a patient. it was a vases of roses. not just red. pink, orange and purple buds fill the vase. it was beautiful. you never let him see what you were hiding behind that tapestry.

hyunjin felt his eyes begin to water, he looks down to see a fallen letter addressed to him.

my dearest, hyunjin.

i wanna apologize for not telling you at first, and maybe its too late. but i had stage four cancer, i was too far gone for the doctors to do anything so i guess that leaves me to where we are right now.

when we first met, i was due to die any day. but by some miracle i continued to live. i was living on borrowed time, but i so desperately wanted to use every second on you.

you reminded me of myself when i first learned about having cancer, except i was further along before we caught it. i wanted to be someone you looked up to, and not let cancer get in your way. i didn't have that, i had to learn that me being the way i was, was hurting people i cared most about.

i didnt want to be forgotten in the dreams of the hospital so i chose you to remember me when my time has come, and along the short time we had together i found myself falling for you. you were the one i couldn't tell, because i knew i wouldn't be able to tell you, our time was past due.

thank you hyunjin, because through that fake happiness you so graciously pointed out, you became my real source of happiness. i tried to fight for you, for us, but sadly, my prayers weren't heard.

this painting was for you, slowly the colors of the roses made their way onto the canvas and it's everything i wish i could tell you, if i was still around.

live long and live freely, and don't be afraid to try, because trying got me, you.

forever yours.

hyunjin fell to his knees, the loud sobs echoed throughout the cold hospital.

a/n : thank you so much for the love and support on die with a smile! i hope you enjoyed it they way i enjoyed writing it! please let me know your thoughts!

[hp-confessions]

Seeing Snape and marauders fans argue all the time is like the live reenactment of the characters in a nutshell.

Both will continue arguing over their takes on that era and how their sides are the better choice. However, no one, or at least most of each community refuses to listen to each other. Instead they keep arguing as if it’s going to solve things.

Usually it’s always just reduced to petty insults.

“Snape deserved to get bullied” On a snape slander post.

“stan bambi” on any and EVERYpositive tt centered around snape.

“She should’ve gotten with snape anyways” on a jily post.

The same thing happens in the book. Insert the name calling.

Then there’s the apologists/victim blamers.

“Snape didn’t do anything wrong. he was right to bully children.”

Just because snapes life sucked doesn’t mean he’s just allowed to take it out on others?

“They were just fifteen.”

Unclothing someone, the shrieking shack incident , and probably having multiple 4v1 isn’t justifiable by any means.

“they matured”

Seeing as sirius still calls snape snivilous at his grown age, snape taking any moment he can to slander any of them, or just remus brushing things under the rug id say that yeah no the fuck they didn’t.

“snape saying mudblood was an accident”

He still said it.

“Shrieking shack was an accident”

Remus got exposed and Snape could’vedied.

“We dont know if they completely took off his underwear so it’s not that-“

exactly. we don’t. yet a lot of evidence points towards it but wtv. either way he still took his pants off. That’s assault.

“His father and the rest nearly killed me and tormented me for seven straight years.”

yes, and that’s bad ofc but that doesn’t excuse snape continuing the cycle and doing the same to his students.

”He was a slytherin! He wasn’t a good person!”

pretty sure a first year wasn’t showing any signs of being death eater material but alright..

then there’s the demonizers….😟

“Snapes a pedo because if harry was a girl he’d be creepy towards harry”

WHAT THE FUCK🤢🤮 NO HES NOT OH MY GOD..😨😭 Genuinley what goes through your mind when you think that.. Snaoe would probably still act hateful or if anything he’d absolutelyavoid fem!harry because in this hypothetical situation she was similar to lily. Not because he’s a pedophile but because of TRAUMA????? HELLO???? Seeing ur bully is one thing but seeing ur dead ex bff is another.. just. because. you. think. he. liked. her. mother. does. not. mean. he’s. going. to. become. a. kid. liker. for. her. daughter. just because harry’s a gender bend doesn’t mean snapes going to transform into a creep. how did you even get that from SNAPE of all people. SNAPE. If you haven’t gotten the memo bro DESPIES no he LOATHES the existence of children. he’d be the last person to be a pdo. Yes he does care for them obviously, but in a way of where if a pedo was idk being creepy with a child bro would 🪄💥🧨🔪🧠 off that pedo…

“Sirius tried to murder snape”

….no…he didn’t. if i recalled sirius was not guilty gor murder charges regarding a rat.. like i said earlier, the shrieking shack incident wasnt okay in the slightest but that doesn’t mean it was purposeful attempted murder. they were stupid (no this also doesn’t justify their actions) and thought it’d scare him and obviously didn’t think their little prank through. they weren’t trying to murder him they were just being assholes. i don’t see sirius using remus to kill, ever. a highly dangerous prank apparently? yeah? murder? no,

“____/____ didn’t contribute at all”

Snape, sirius, and remus literally threw away his life to save harry. not pettigrew tho he’s a little bitch rat i hate pettigrew!!!!!!!👺👺

Anyways, to summarize, everyone’s arguing yet never actually trying to achieve anything but submission when that’s quite literally impossible to accomplish. And that’s because no one’s willing to find a common ground and no one wants to actually create logical arguments. Petty insults and cursed theoretical nonsense isn’t going to solve the argument.

Many Snape fans ignore or straight up defend him bullying students and refuse to acknowledge he was in the wrong.

Many marauders fans ignore or straight up defend the bullying and refuse to acknowledge they were in the wrong.

Snape will refuse to back down from Sirius and Lupin and will continue behaving the way he does.

Sirius and Remus will refuse to back down from snape and continue to do the same things they did as schoolboys.

Real or fantasy, this is something that will never be resolved. maybe because no one cares enough to fix it? maybe because they care too much?

either way i guess it’d be nice to say i like snape and not immediately stereotyped as a snape apologist or get made fun of by it from friends. Im not stupid and if anything i like that he’s morally grey. i don’t support his actions, but i like to see characters with faults and put together why they ended up that way. his home life and other (non bullying) aspects of him are relatable and that’s another reason i like him.

i guess it’d be nice to talk to marauders fans and let them yap abt fanfics and for them not to think that i’m going to instantly call them horrible people for liking the marauders. I may not be in the m fandom but that doesn’t mean i won’t be respectful and gen listen to them. i’m sure that marauders fans like relate to the non bullying aspects aswell.

anyways yeah, i kinda just wished the fandom was a little more chill and not a fucking dumpster fire💀💀

I really need to see Matty looking after Lou after she got the tattoo, maybe he helps with the aftercare, wrapping it etc... And how he can't stop looking at it and smiling

A/n: omg thank you for this, I love this and I thank you for sending this in... I wanna do more little blurbs like this about the ia series... I added a little reaction into this too. Don't know if this is what you wanted but.... Hope you like it?

Matty insists going to the tattoo studio with her but she's just as stubborn as him, telling him she wants to go alone, so he allows her, although he's pouting about it as she leaves him. She gets the tattoo done, in the same place as Matty's but on the other arm, opposite his. She returns to their hotel after that and Matty is a bit annoyed that he doesn't know she's back, only finding out when he stubbles across her in their living area of their room, the whole band crowded around her, looking at the tattoo beneath the wrap.

"How comes I'm the last to see" Matty pouts, trying to push his way through the group to find her.

His eyes land on her arm, smiling widely at the tattoo but more so at the positioning of it. His hand gently takes her arm in his, taking a closer look at it.

"Love" he says, smiling at her.

"Like it?" The question seems ridiculous because it's basically the same as all of their tattoos, but it means so much more than that.

"Love it" he says, standing to the left of her and taking her hand in his, smiling at the way their tattoos touch, she winces slightly at the pain but then smiles, nodding at him, letting him know that's exactly the reason she got it there.

Everyone smiles at them and two hours later, when she takes the wrap off, they all take a picture of their tattoos together, some standing a bit awkwardly (Ross for example) to get theirs in frame. After an awkward amount of shuffling about, they finally find a way that shows all of them and Jamie takes a picture, sending it to their group chat.

Matty's is then tugging Lou off somewhere, insisting that he helps clean, moisturise and then re-wrap it. He gently pushes Lou until she's resting in a comfortable position next to the sink, resting her bottom on the edge of the bath tub, draping her arm over the basin and washing the tattoo with warm water and suds.

"Doesnt hurt does it? Not too hot? Not too cold?" He asks all at once making her chuckle.

"No Matty I'm fine" she says and he still looks worried.

"You're sure?" She nods, leaning up to kiss him gently.

He gently dries it before leaning down to place a soft kiss against the skin, before reaching for the moisturiser the tattoo artist gave her, applying a small amount and gently massaging it in. For some reason he softly blows against the skin, maybe thinking it would help it dry quicker.

He comes to sit next to her, the bath tub digging slightly into his bum, making him realise maybe this wasnt the most comfortable place to sit. He rests his arm against hers, their tattoos adjacent to one another. The smile on his face is addictive and makes one of similar calibre rest against her own mouth.

His eyes keep flicking between his and hers, smiling at how identical they were. He slowly lifts her arm closer to his eyes again, impressed with the fine line artwork.

"How did you get it to be identical to mine?" He asks, completely in awe, with the fact she wanted it to be the same as his and the fact she finally has it, officially a part of the band.

"Sent them a picture of yours... Quite a few actually" she chuckles, he looks at her in shock, before a cheeky smile rises to his face.

"And how did you get those aye?" He asks.

"I have my ways" she lifts his own arm to her mouth now, kissing his tattoo this time.

"Cheeky" he says but his ego has inflated way too much to say anything else, he just smirks to himself. He knows what he means to her now, it was obvious.

He gently taps the tattoo, feeling that the moisturiser had sunk it a good amount, apologising when she lightly winces.

"Okay love, hold your arm out" he says and she does as he says, allowing him to wrap the tattoo, gently securing it with tape, smiling all the while down at it

"Beautiful" he says and they walk hand in hand back to the room to join the boys. Tattoos resting against each other, box against box.

I finally read again today, chapters 34-39 this time

Usually I read these books in german while on the bus but today I forgot my book, but fortunately, I had some time to go to the library and they had it, but only in english. And since I was sitting at a table with my phone, I was able to take notes live as I read, and I'd like to share those with you rather than doing what I usually do and trying to sum up all of my thoughts a few hours later

Chapter 35:

the fact that NO ONE in the summer court recognized Feyre is absolutely ridiculous, it really is like her accomplishments from the first just vanished, no wonder so many people recommend just skipping ahead to MAF i bet that would make the reading experience wayyyyy less frustrating

shes cursing herself from being so out of shape despite Cassian's 'lessons' and that reminds me, at the start of ACOMAF her internal monologue and other characters kept remarking on how thin and frail she had become and I dont think its come up since she started staying at the NC permanently, great mental health rep girlie

"I let instinct, no doubt granted from Rhys, guide me forward." Come onnnnnnnn, can Feyre not be cool on her own for one (1) moment

"Amarathan did not break that kindness [from before UTM]." no, but Rhys sure did

Once again, Feyre is horrified at her violating Tarquin's mind, rightfully so, and yet she continues to hang out with His Majesty, The King of Violating Minds

Rhys tells Feyre that she "thinks like an Illyrian", which is very strange to me given that Illyrian women are literally not allowed to do anything other than housework and Illyrian men are seemingly all violent misogynists whom Rhys hates

Chapter 36:

"I'd bet they wouldn't have handed over that book" but you didnt ask them though??? Like, they couldve just told Tarquin about their plans, he seems reasonable enough, even if Cresseida and Varian dont agree, he as high lord should be able to override their opinions easily and if that doesnt work out THEN you can go ahead and steal it. Sure, maybe they wouldve trippled security and/or thrown them out of the SC but that should hardly be an obstacle for The Most Powerful Highlord In The History Of Prythian and his eldritch girl best friend

Okay, so Rhysand did pack illyrian leathers for her which is nice, but still, I see no reason why Feyre had to wear dresses for this (and be okay with wearkng dresses when she absolutely wasnt at the start of ACOMAF) when the NC clearly has more feminine fashion involving pants

Theres lead in this vaguely medieval fantasy world?? And theyve had for like centuries?? That seems weird to me I'll have to look into that i think

Okay, so Feyre shapeshifted into Tarquin and she says that she didnt let any part of herself that wasnt Tarquin shine through while she opened the books locks, but those shapeshifting powers are Tamlin's though. That has some very interesting implications but tbh idk if I trust sjm to have thought about it that much

"I am summer; I am sea and sun and green things" that just sounds kinda silly, also I feel like it shouldve been "I am sea and sun and golden sand" given the beach vibes that the Summer Court has

Chapter 37:

note to self: lookup what Leshon Hakodesh is exactly bc theres no way its not some random mythological term that sjm is just dropping into her world [edit: its just the jewish term for 'the Holy Tongue', im not gonna question the implications of that any more than im gonna question the existence of Nyx as a minor goddess or something in this world]

Rhysand doesnt tells anyone jackshit and Cassian is ready to stab Amren if she dares go against him, why are these jokers friends again?

Chapter 38:

granted, its been a while since I read this book and my memory isnt the best, but why exactly does Rhysand need to keep the 'why' of their mission secret? wasnt their mission just to find the cauldron before Hybern does and prevent a war with prythian and the human world?? I guess maybe Rhys doesnt wanna reveal his secret goodness or whatever, but he couldve just had Feyre act as some kind of emissary to the rest of Prythian, like, just have her pretend this is information she found out by herself at the Night Court and have her relay it to the other courts, Feyre has saved them before they have no reason not to listen to her

"'I think Tarquin wanted to be my friend.'" question, is Tarquin/Rhys a thing? Obviously Rhys doesnt deserve Tarquin but idk, there could be something there I think. they have some nice aesthetic contrasts

why would Feyre say stuff like "mother above" when thats not a deity she believed in for most of her life? Like, I already talked about how Feyre clearly had the impulse to pray in ACOTAR she just didnt do it because the names of the mortal gods have been long forgotten, but idk, I feel like her starting to embrace fae religion warrants more exploration. and fae religion in general warrants more exploration tbh

"'Its not the end of the world if you [make a mistake] every now and then'" hello??? Feyre, he made you steal from a man that has been nothing but kind to you for no reason and now theres a bounty on your heads!! And lets not forget that Rhys, Amren and Feyre are all highranking politicians in the night court, youre lucky the SC is too occupied with rebuilding itself to declare war on your asses

I keep saying this, its so infuriating how well Feyre and Rhysand already get along when theyve spent like, 2 or maybe 3 months if Im being very generous, worth of time together aside from their time UTM

god Feysand flirting is the most straight bullshit to ever straight bullshit I feel like im gonna die

Shes thinking about buying RED "lacy things" when that was meant to be a trigger for her, did no one edit this

"a sensual male voice chuckled with midnight laughter" istg the prose is so much worse in english

Feyre having to make herself focus to not look at Rhysand dick after he just had a horrible nightmare has the same energy as Bryce Crescent City thinking about how hot and muscular Hunt is while he just completely shut down because he had to kill someone

"The hole in my chest that was slowly starting to heal over" can you BE more unsubtle

Chapter 39:

Rhysand tattooing the symbol of the nightcourt onto both his knees because he "will bow for no one and nothing but his crown" is actually so funny, i wish he did more cringefail bullshit like that

I think out of all the inner circle relationships, I like Amren and Feyre the best so far and I absolutely do not believe that Cassian cares about Amren at all, much less sees her as family, that guy would kill her in a heartbeat if he could

forgive my aromanticness, but I really dont like the thing that Amren and Varian have going on, cant there be ONE character that doesnt have some stupid romance subplot in this world

Oh, so Mor telling Feyre very little of any specific plans they have is fine, but if someone from the spring court does it theyre the worst person ever

"[Cassian told me] that my family was full of bossy, know-it-all females" oh but hes sooooo much better than all those other illyrians who are all sexist brutes

Why are Beron and Helion the only ones with a last name

"[Strolling through Velaris with Mor] was perhaps my favorite, and the female certainly excelled at finding ways to spend money" are you fucking kidding me, are there actually people who consider a book with this kind of blatant 'women b shopping' bullshit to be feminist?

"'I wanted to protect my people, change the perceptions of the Illyrians, and eliminate the corruption that plagued the land'" wow Rhys and youve done such a good job at all of those things in the 500 years youve been on the throne

"[Tamlin] resented being High Lord — and maybe... maybe that was part of why the court had become what it was" ???? girlie what are you talking about, the spring court is fine right now it doesnt get destroyed until ACOWAR. which is also you fault

so Feyre is once again wearing a chiffon gown for political reasons when she could very well be wearing pants and shes completely fine with that. great

And Mor is wearing red and Feyre is completely unbothered by it, why give her a trigger like that if it just stops mattering the second shes out of the spring court

[thecoolcatstuff]

It seems people still have trouble seeing the mysoginistic patterns of this show with Adrien's arc so lets look into it from another character's angle that suffers from the same patterns: Emilie.

Emilie used the peacock miraculous, fell into a coma offscreen and was condemned to a role of being the show's emotional catalyst. The only little spoonfed information we have about her isnt ACTUALLY about her, but an information that served the porpose to affect the development and progression of other characters the writers deem as more important.

People are only allowed to remember her to create tension and drama, and to improve their own arcs, never her own.

As a consequence, in 5 seasons and 3 specials of this show (and with Emilie being mentioned in several episodes) we still have absolutelly no idea to what her personality was like, besides the handwavey "dead mom" archtrope they always present her.

And if it wasnt bad enough, lets look on the perspective of her agency.

Of course, we are talking about a character that is in a coma, which is just a convenient excuse to make a character unable to make their own choices for the whole extension of the show.

But here is the thing: her being in a coma doenst mean her whole character arc should be in one too. She could have always be fleshen out and developed by the instances where she was able to: the past.

They could have added flashbacks in many instances to develop her character. They just chose not to.

They could have voiced her opinions and thoughs through other characters many times. They just chose not to.

They could have make brief references and snipets about what her life was like or what did people think of her. They just chose not to.

Not even from the past she is able to express her opinions and make her own choices.

The only choice she DOES make(the video) is promply ignored by Gabriel even AFTER watching it. He sees the video, he misinterprets "dont put your life and Adrien's in line to try and save me" message she was saying as "come lets kill ourselves together". He does it, and kills her without her consent while still doing exactly what she said not to in the video: the wish.

And this sickening and fucked up thing is portrayed as a good and altruistic move. Horray for all women who have "dedicated" men like gabe as their husband I guess.

[bridgyrose]

Penny defeats the Gods by confusing the crap out of them for being an entirely new form of creation.

(May or may not be what you were thinking for this)

Penny felt her soul start to pull as the God of Light seemed to look over her, almost as if he was trying to figure out what she was. Not like she knew anymore either. Portions of aura werent her own, pieces of Winter’s that stayed attached to hers even after being separated using the aura transfer machine. Even her father’s and Ruby’s auras seemed to be entangled with all of this. And then there was her body. No longer machine, but not exactly flesh and blood even if that was how she manifested herself. 

“You… arent one of mine,” the God of Light said as he pulled at Penny’s aura, twisting a piece of it like a loose thread. “And you arent one of my brother’s.” 

Penny took a nervous breath as her body started to tingle, almost as if she could feel her aura being unwound. “I was made by my father.” A shiver went down her spine as she felt an unfamiliar warmth in her chest, a warmth that shouldn’t have been there. “But I am a person now.” 

“No, you’re not.” 

“I am-” 

“You are something… different.” The God of Light let go of Penny’s aura, letting it tangle back to her. “Your aura isnt natural, not like theirs.” 

Penny looked over to her friends as the God of Light motioned to them, frozen in time just like everything else around her. “It… it was an artificial aura.” 

“And one that you seemed to turn into your own, even though elements of others are still present. Now, tell me, what exactly are you?” 

“I-I am a person,” Penny said, her voice wavering as if she didnt believe what she was saying anymore. Ever since Ambrosius pulled her aura out of her mechanical body, there wasnt any certainty of what she was even if she knew that she was a person. And yet, even as the God of Light stood in front of her, she started to waver on if she truly believed what she was saying. “I… I am a real person.” 

“Are you?” the God of Light asked as she looked over her. “You’re not like them, something different that seems to defy the balance of life and death that I’ve created-” 

“A balance that you seem to break,” the God of Darkness spat out as he appeared next to his brother. 

“This one isnt my doing.” 

“But that one is,” the God of Darkness hissed as he pointed at Oscar. “A death you wouldnt let me bring back.” 

Penny took a step back as she watched the two gods argue, what she felt of a heart beating hard in her chest as she started to feel panic run through her. Her eyes glanced at her friends, locked in battle with Salem, waiting for the judgment the gods would give them once they finished arguing. She turned to face the gods once more, her voice quiet as she started to speak. “You… you broke the balance too.” 

The God of Darkness transformed into his dragon form as he turned to look at Penny, almost glaring as purple fire started to leave his mouth. “You stay out of this!” 

“You both broke the balance when you cursed Salem.” Penny’s voice shook as she took a small step back, watching as the God of Light transformed as well. “But you can both fix it. You can take away her curse, put Ozma to rest-” 

“And we’ll have to take you away to fix it too,” the God of Light spoke. “Once the balance has been restored, then humanity will be judged.” 

“Take me… away?” Penny asked. “You… you cannot take me away from my friends.” 

“You defile the balance like my brother has.” The God of Light reared up on his hind legs, a bright silver light starting to appear in his mouth, licking around like flame. “No one is allowed to cheat death.” 

Penny took another step back as she looked back at her friends, her heart starting to pound as she tried to calm herself once more. The thought of leaving her friends again pained her. Just as she was ready to accept her fate, she paused for a moment. “I… I am… proof the balance is not broken.” 

“Be quiet and accept-” 

“I want to hear her out,” the God of Darkness said as he stood in front of his brother. “Dont you?” 

The God of light lowered himself as the silver flames died down, glaring at Penny. “Speak before I change my mind.” 

“I-I am not human. I was… mechanical,” Penny started as she put a hand to her chest. “I died, but my soul was bound to my core and so I was rebuilt.” With a heavy sigh, she lowered her hand as she looked over towards her friends. “But after that, my life was in danger again. My friends tried to save me by pulling my soul away from my body and turning me into… this.  But even still, I was killed, the remains of me brought back. I… I am the embodiment of creation and destruction, I am proof that your balance has not been broken.” 

“She has a point,” the God of Darkness said as he went back to his humanoid form. “We can fix what you broke and leave them.” 

The God of Light transformed back, almost annoyed. “Fix what I broke? I didnt break-” 

“You were the one who brought Ozma back after you told me that I wasnt allowed to for Salem.” 

“She had asked me first and I told her no.” 

“And then you did anyway after we left this world.” The God of Darkness sighed and looked at Penny. “This world isnt ours anymore. We fix our mistake with Salem, put Ozma to rest, and leave her as proof that your balance isnt broken.”

The God of Light sighed and looked over at Salem, a bright light shining from his hand. “Then humanity has been judged as unworthy for us to live amongst.” 

Penny closed her eyes, raising her arm to protect herself as the silver light flooded around the castle, the unfamiliar warmth burning at her chest. Then, the warmth disappeared. She opened her eyes, arm shaking as she looked for the gods who were no longer in front of her. And as she saw her friends, still standing, time slowly unfreezing, her heart relaxed as she realized the gods were no longer a threat.

Without even really thinking about it, Lex gave a shove at Scar's muscular arm and hissed, "Quick, under the porch!" When he gave her a doubtful look that she could feel even through the his mask, she shoved him again, harder, "Come on, please!"  

"Hey, Lex, you okay?" came Karen's voice from behind her. Lex whipped her head around once more to face her friend, foot completely in her mouth. This oughta be good. 

"Karen, hey, listen, I have a really good explanation for this." She was waiting for her friend to register what she was seeing; waiting to see the shock and fear on her face, for her to-  

"Okay," Karen replied, crunching out onto the snowy porch to look out at the surrounding forest, "For what?"  

Lex would've been totally puzzled had she not seen the ever so slight movement of a large, clawed hand dissapearing underneath the porch. She visibly relaxed, mentally trying to cook up a way to justify her crazy outburst, "Uh, for-" The hand under the porch reappeared so the tips of the claws were peeking out into the daylight, accompanied by a sweep of dark rope-like appendages that could only be his 'hair'. "For- For forgetting. About you coming here today. I can explain."  

"Oh," Karen waved a hand in the air dismissively, "Hon, I told you, don't worry about it. It happens to the best of us." She took a step off the porch, and Lex panicked briefly until the hand that was noticable slunk back into the shadows of the house. As long as Karen didn't get down on her hands and knees, she probably wouldn't see him now. The fucking porch monster. In the back of her mind, Lex wondered why he hadn't just gone invisible. He was completely capable of it, with the help from his wristband. Then she realized her probably thought her freaking out was funny, and he wanted to show off his speed and agility. Bastard.  

"The truth is," Lex stated, taking a deep breath, "I met someone."

Karen gasped in excitement and Lex noticed another slight movement coming from under the porch. "Oh, my God, that's great!" Karen exclaimed, hands flying to her face. "Who is he? How did you guys meet?!"  

"I... met him on one of my tours out on the ice." It wasn't entirely a lie. "He was one of my clients on the expedition." Now it was.  

"Oh, how romantic!" Karen gasped, "Was it love at first sight?"  

Lex smirked at the thought, "Definitely not. He's so different from me - we butted heads more than once." Also not entirely a lie.  

"And then you two fell for each other! Lex, I'm so happy for you! Does he at least live closeby?"  

"No, he's..." Lex pondered: He's from outer space. "He's not from around here. He lives pretty far away." Just a couple of light years.  

"Distance isn't necessarily a bad thing, though," Karen answered with a wink, "You get time to yourself."  

"Exactly." That was how Lex had always felt. Until now. Honestly, she wouldn't mind if Scar had a permanent fixture on her planet; she enjoyed his company just as much as she enjoyed her alone time. And that was definitely saying something. "This one, though, I wouldn't mind having a little bit closer."  

Karen looked shocked, "You must really like him."  

Lex smiled, thinking of her alien friend, "I do." Then she wrapped her arms around herself, even though she wasnt really cold, "Let's go inside and talk some more, it's getting cold out here!" She looked back towards where Karen's car was parked, briefly, "And your car looks fine, nothing to-" She glanced back towards the house just in time to see Scar disappear into her living room, the door swinging behind him. Oh. My. God. "-worry about."  

"Oh, stupid thing," Karen tisked, moving back towards Lex's front door, "I know I closed it."  

"Um, Karen!" Lex said suddenly, brain working furiously to try and keep up this game. "Didn't you say you brought pictures of your sister's family?" she babbled.  

"Oh, yes! Thanks for reminding me!" Karen started walking back towards her car, much to Lex's relief. "I want to show you the pictures from her wedding, she looked like an angel."  

"Yes, I'd love to see them!" Lex replied, inching up onto the porch towards the door, "I'm just gonna throw some salt down so we don't kill ourselves on the ice." Leaning inside the house to grab her bucket of ice by  the door, Lex hissed, "I'm gonna kill you," to seemingly thin air. A chortle of amusement answered her from the kitchen area, and she growled again before heading back outside. She wondered what he would do if she took a handful of salt and threw it at his face. Probably laugh at her. She made herself look busy on the porch, sprinkling salt down on the not very icy boards, while stimultaneously keeping an eye on the activity going on inside the house. From what she could tell, Scar was in invisible mode; she couldn't see him moving, nor could she hear him. The intergalactic hunter; silent, deadly, and a prankster. He owed her big time for this.  

"Okay, I have a big box full of photos I want you to see - I found some of our old pictures from college!" Karen said cheerily, and Lex laughed.  

"Oh boy, memories!" She pulled the door open to let Karen and her armful of stuff go in first, praying that she wouldn't come face to face with a seven foot alien. Her blood ran cold when Karen cried out in surprise, and she practically mowed the doorway down to get inside. God damn him. 

"What, are you alright?!" Lex exclaimed, looking around to see: absolutely nothing. Her heart felt like a machine gun in her chest.  

"Yeah, sorry to scare you Lex, I slipped on the floor; ugh, my boots are making a mess in here!" Karen stated, trying her best to wipe off the bottoms of her shoes on the door mat.  

Lex felt like she was gonna need high blood pressure medication after this one. Or at least five of her anxiety pills. "It's okay, don't worry about it Kar, I'll clean up in a little while." Jokingly, she added, with a bit more volume and clarity, "I thought you saw a ghost, or something."  

Karen laughed in reply, "Oh man, wouldn't that be something?" After taking her boots off, she made her way back towards the couch, and Lex noticed movement near the hallway. Scar was invisible, but there was always that slight glint that was still visible even in their spectrum. He went still when he noticed Lex watching him, and she very slowly shook her head at him. Don't. You. Dare. Almost gleefully, Scar once again stepped towards Karen, and from the glinting of the light on his near invisible form, Lex could tell he had his hand outstretched. Good Lord, was she babysitting a rowdy child this whole time? The biggest child ever, with inch long claws and deadly precision with a blade. When they were alone next time, Lex meant to ask him exactly how old in alien years he was compared to human years. Even with someone over hundreds of years old, she was still the mature one in this relationship.  

Lex tried her hardest not to react suddenly; Karen would think she was insane if she just started freaking out at the empty hallway. She was attempting to think of a way to diffuse this situation without turning into psycho-lady. A bit stiffly, she walked over towards where Scar was standing by the shadowed hallway, and he ceased all movement. Smiling tightly, a glare in her eyes directed at him, she brushed past him a little more forcefully than necessary. She mouthed behave at him before turning to walk over to the couch to sit by her friend. A large, hot hand smoothed through her hair as she passed, and despite her stern attitude towards him, she couldn't help but smile at that. She sat down on the couch between where Scar was standing and Karen was sitting, effectively blocking him from trying anything (for now).  

Karen showed Lex the photos from her sister's wedding, and a few hours passed with more pictures being viewed, more chatting, more laughter, and surprisingly no disturbances. Lex wondered, looking at her clock (the time now being 3:03pm) if Scar was even still in the house. His kind moved with such stealth, such control, that ninety nine percent of the time when he came to visit her,  if he didn't allow himself to make a noise, she would never have known he was there. Karen was just getting up to leave, having a dinner date with her own fiance, and she and Lex were walking towards the door so Karen could grab her coat off of the hanger.  

"So, next week?" Lex asked. She had really missed her friend; though Lex had never had a best friend (until now, and he wasn't even human), she and Karen had always gotten on well. They'd gone to school together, been roomates in college for a time (until Lex had moved into a single, preferring solitude), and had remained in contact ever since. Lex honestly did look forward to more times with Karen - and maybe even with other actual human beings, at some point.  

"That'll be perfect! Let me know when you're off!" Karen replied joyfully, slipping her coat on as Lex did the same. Just as they were about to exit the house, a deep, rattling trill came from behind them, near where the hallway leading to Lex's bedroom was. God damnit, just when everything was going smoothly.  

"What the hell was that?" Karen asked, leaning closer to look towards the source of the noise.  

"Um, probably my furnace, it does that someti-"  

The noise game again, this time from the kitchen. Getting closer.  

"Are you sure, Lex? It sounds like it's here in the room with us," This time, Karen's voice held an undertone of worry, her eyes darting around the interior of the home.  

"I- um, there could be a raccoon, I thought I saw one coming out from under the house the other-" Lex stammered lamely, not even finishing her sentence before a growl - yes, a growl - came from right in front of them.  

"... Lex?" Karen squeaked, now sounding a little bit more than worried.  

"Karen," Lex returned as calmly as she could , "I have to tell you something."  

Unfortunately, the 'something' she had to tell Karen about chose that exact moment to materialize right in front of their faces. Both women's heads slowly traced up the body of the creature in front of them before coming to a stop at his deadlocked, masked head.  

Said creature cocked his head once to the left, almost inquisitively, before dropping to a crouch, throwing his arms back wide, and letting out an ear-splitting roar that Lex swore rattled the windows.  

She didn't even get a chance to say Karen's name before her friend was screaming bloody murder, already having shoved past the door, and was tearing down the snowy walkway to her car, almost falling a few times in her haste. Both Lex and Scar watched as she, still screaming, jumped in her car and stomped on the gas, barely waiting until the car was even on. Lex didn't even think she had the door closed fully when she was spraying snow, gravel and ice on her way down the driveway going about sixty miles per hour.  

Lex turned her head to look at Scar, who turned his head to look down at her as she sighed heavily through her nose, a murderous glare on her face.  

"Great, now we've really done it."

My "The Nun" head canons because im desperate

Because I still haven't moved on with the maurine (yes I made them a ship name) ship these are my head canons a.k.a tweaks to the movie to make them get together🥲

In the first movie:

☆ Irene is not a nun, but only a helper or has connections with the church.

☆ She was only called because the church knew that of her visions.

☆ During this time, Irene was wondering if she would start becoming a nun since the other sisters at the convent where she was staying we're trying to convince her to be one.

☆ When Irene and Father Burke met, Irene told him what I wrote above, so when they went to Maurice's house to ask about the abbey, Burke lied to Maurice to back off because "Irene is a nun"

☆ Irene still took vows from Burke when they were about to fight the final boss/fight, but since it wasn't official and Burke was the only one with a position in the church that was there during that moment it doesnt count!! (Let's just say that when they got back, the church didn't allow it ;) )

☆ Since Irene isnt a nun here, the "Thank you for saving my life, Maurice" SCENE IS MORE IMPACTFUL

☆ In the last scene, Irene revealed to Maurice that she really wasn't a nun but she was just planning to🤣

Second movie:

☆ Okay so when Valak was there in the climax scene in the first movie, they actually didn't possess maurice!

So how did they go to boarding school?

Valak still has another portal but is inactive, which made it's barriers there weak, but since their main portal was closed in the first movie, Valak then went to that other inactive portal. There, one after another, Valak possessed innocent people, (after Valak posseses another person, their last vessel dies kind of thing) so the scene where the church noticed that people were dying left and right in the churches still happens, up until Valak makes their way to the boarding school where the eye of saint lucy is placed!

☆ So who gets possessed in part 2?

ITS THE TEACHER MWAHAHAHA (I kinda have beef with her character smh, but I think it's kinda appropriate that she gets possessed, im not quite sure how that happens but take it as it is! This is my head canon😭)

☆ Since it was the teacher who was possessed, she manipulates Maurice not to interfere with what Valak is trying to do BY SHOWING THAT SHE WAS KIND AND DEFINATELY NOT POSSESSED so that Maurice would not be suspicious of her, so expect some back and fourth scenes with the four characters in the movie.

☆ During the train flashback scene, SINCE IRENE DIDN'T BECOME A NUN, THERE IS MORE TENSION BECAUSE THEY BOTH ARE HAVING REGRETS FOR LEAVING SINCE THERE HAS BEEN SPARKS BUILDING UP BETWEEN THEM THAT ITS OBVIOUS ENOUGH THAT THEY BOTH THINK THAT THERE MIGHT BE SOMETHING THERE BUT DID NOT PERSUE EACH OTHER because Maurice was leaving and went to look for a job far from the church since he still is traumatized 🤩😭😭😭

☆ After that Maurice went looking for a new job and found it at the boarding school and the rest of the movie happens exactly the same.

☆ At the end of the movie, THE TEACHER DIES SO THERE'S NO ONE TO GET POSSESSED BY VALAK AGAIN AFTER A WHILE

(okay maybe I do have beef with her character.. ONLY because, if you really think about it, if the teacher wasnt there, and it was only sophie who was with maurice, THERE LITERALLY IS LITTLE TO NO DIFFERENCE WITH THE MOVIE)

☆ BUT— Maurice would still almost die and the thank you for saving my life scene happens AGAIN BUT MUCH MORE IMPACTFUL BECAUSE THERE IS A KISS AT THE END YESS!!!!! SWEET VICTORY!!!!!! WOHOOO THE SHIP HAS SAILED!!! After Irene kissed Maurice, maybe frenchie would even say "You even cut your hair after I left" (because yes, when i saw that irene had short hair for the movie, i immediately thought that she was broken hearted after they parted ways Hshshsh🫠) and Irene just laughes at him AND THE MOVIE ENDS HAPPLY EVER AFTER!!!!

It is cliché, but then again— it's my head canon😭

If there are any writers out there who miraculously gets inspired to write for them because of this, DO IT PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU 🙏

ᓚᗢCHAP 10 — soup????

gyu❤️ well now im glad i decided to ride my bike cuz theres no way i could hide my car but also why? you remeber how i wasnt allowed to go to the party last night? well my mom is kinda like mad and im kinda grounded theres so way ur not coming over tho im dedicated

gyu❤️ ok got it is there a specific way i should sneak in?

you try to hide ur bike under my window then ill help u in itll make sense once u get here i promise

gyu❤️ awsome ill be there in like 20 you OMG gyu what??!?!??! are u dying?!??!/1//??! you NO IM OKAY i just remembered that i can give u ur bday present today!!!!!!!!!!!!!! gyu omg????? the way i literally cannot wait

what would high school be without partying and sneaking boys in? sneaking in beomgyu isn't as hard as you thought it was though. Just get him through the window and be quiet. Thankfully for you your room is downstairs so there's no need to worry about him falling off the roof, but of course, you still have to be careful so you aren't caught. and you're deathly nervous.

first things first, you gotta make yourself seem sick. should be easy, just put a thermometer in some hot water and put some blush on so your cheeks are red. then all you have to do is play the part, cough when you can, and make him do everything for you aka be lazy. and that's exactly what you start doing, you try to heat up some water as fast as you can, and practically painting your face red with blush so it's as believable as possible.

even trying to go the extra mile to quickly tell your mom that you feel sick, she scolds you of course thinking it's because you went to a party, but as soon as she stops you run back to your room, putting a heater near your bedroom door to help muffle the sounds of you and beomgyu talking once he gets there.

speaking of beomgyu, you hear a knock on your window. you flinch at hearing the sound, forgetting he wouldn't be coming through the door for a minute. but the second you remember you sprint over to your bedroom window located over your bed, moving the curtains to the side and opening up the window.

"Hey, beomgyu!!!"

"hi y/n!!"

"You should hide your bike in that bush, want me to help?" you offer, slightly leaning out the window wanting to help.

"no? You're sick, why would you help hide my bike? I could never make some one that's do something for me." beomgyu says as he puts his bike behind the bush near your window, trying to not get the vines tangled in the bike.

"Oh right, well come inside already, I didn't lie to my mom for you to be here for nothing," you say, making room for him to climb out of the window and onto your bed. and he does with ease.

"y/n you should lie down, I brought some things to help you feel better." Since the two of you are already sitting it isn't hard for him to get you to lie down. he gently pushes you down with one hand on your shoulder and the other on your back. he moves one of your blankets over you and you start to feel bad about lying to him. you're sure that he would have come over if you just asked, but you can't lie, it is definitely nice to have him pamper you.

"Here, take a sip" you're surprised once you see a small spoon with what you think is soup near your mouth.

"What's this? soup? jeez, you're really prepared."

"Of course I am! I knew I would have to stay and your room so I brought a thermal with soup in it for you. And don't worry, if you spill it on yourself, I brought napkins." he proclaims proudly, clearly preparing himself thoroughly for the situation.

Giving in to his caring antics, you reluctantly take the spoon in your hand and take a sip.

"It's good, but you don't have to feed me. I'm not that sick. I can feed myself." You reach over, bringing the thermal filled with soup in your unoccupied hand.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. I just feel bad since you got sick because of my bday party," he says sounding a little defeated.

"Oh right speaking of your birthday, your present arrived!!!!!!!" You try to get up to get the present from your desk, but he stops you not wanting to make you get up still under the impression that you're sick.

"Just tell me where it is, I'll get it for you"

11:48 pm

hours later after beomgyu's opened his present and the two of you had been hanging out, you both decided to watch movies together. after maybe the third movie you both get kinda tired but you both say nothing still wanting to hang out with each other. not the best idea since you both have school in the morning and you end up falling asleep, in the same bed.
