#cherry my beloved 💜

[perexcri]

si vis amari, ama

part i: memento homo, quia pulvis eris et in pulverem reverteris

[remember, man, that you are dust, and to dust you shall return]

There’s a monster with gaping jaws in Mike’s chest, and it is desire; there’s a prophetic oblivion calling his name, and it is want. Both are the root of sin, and both have dug deep into his guts and veins and ink-black blood.

Will, however, seems to waver in that gray space between good and evil, virtue and sin: even his appearance marks this, with his hair that flickers between dark chocolate and ruddy blond in his light, eyes a dark brown spiked through with crushed bits of bright green, skin tanned to a nice shade contrasting with the iridescent light of his tattoos. In his strict adherence to the ways of the Holy One, he’s somehow managed to fall a bit from grace, and the messages he gives, though mixed, are comforting to Mike.

You are not beyond redemption, he seems to say with each meeting and conversation and glint in his eyes, and I am not beyond sin.

Or: After being forced to tend to souls in the wasteland between Heaven and Hell, Mike is given a mission: deceive an angel into leading him to the gates of Heaven.

part 1/7 of the bday gift for my dearly beloved @cherryisgone is here :D it’s got all kinds of fun things: angel/demon au, enemies to lovers, some ineffable husbands vibes, a self-indulgent amount of religious imagery, and, of course, lots of stuff i wrote in the middle of church!!

i’ll be posting once a day until it’s all done (because if Will Byers got a week-long celebration in this fandom then am i definitely gonna make sure my friend gets a week-long celebration too 😌✨), so expect to see more of this popping up in the coming days~

[and shout out to this angel!Will fanart by @byleranalysis that really kick-started my inspiration for this fic!!]

Credits to cafekitsune for the dividers! (I needed these omfg)

Warnings: Mentions of injuries, reader has a nightmare, cursing, ooc because... hm...., I don't know either, written in bullet form, I don't know this is so messy 🙏

• Alright, so where the fuck should I begin with this???

• You maybe fell for them, but they fell even harder— so much harder than their bones are brok— oh wait you mean THAT kind of falling??

• Anyways

• After you FINALLY saved enough money to buy a new phone you stepped on it when you were half asleep

• Ouch.

• You still had to bandage your foot because of the wounds it inflicted on your foot.

• And one time you were resting your foot; you found a certain Otome game...

• Duh bitch of course it was Obey Me! as if it wasn't obvious enough by the title

• You decided to download obey me because:

1. Your best friend forced you to.

2. You were bored.

3. You wanted to cure yourself from boredom after you wake up at 3 in the morning—

• Even though you had to delete a 'few' apps and things from your gallery...

• You think it was worth it! :D

• Because goddamn these guys in the cards look so ngh— excluding luke for obvious reasons.

• You look at them, yes.

• But bitch you dont know that THEY look at you too!

• At first, when they found out they were stuck in a game, they took a while in accepting things, that the human exchange student is- well, some sort of... coded sheep acting all plastic looking thing...?

• Like, what or who made them? Why? And when??? Why did they make them suffer like this??? Why make Lilith die and make Beel drown away in his guilt for god knows how long? and most importantly, what or who is playing??

• Well, until they've gotten access to your phone's camera— you can literally see their pupils form into hearts when stare into their eyes for so long! Except for Luke, they only sparkle more

• The sheep (aka the you in-game) was just... eugh.

• You know those occasional surprise guest sessions after those dance battles???

• Basically, the maximum amount of gifts you can get from surprise guests in a day is 6, and that you have to achieve a perfect sequence and stuff (Basically on all three actions that you do to them)

• ...Bro, they broke out of the coding that makes them give only 6 gifts to you a day and all of a sudden—

• HOLY SHIT??? 10K GRIMM IN ONE GIFT FROM BARBATOS???WHAT–?!

• You know they'll give you only 1k Grimm (it depends if they'll give you Grimm or the gift or nah)

• So— Bitch I'm not finished yet!

• Bro not only that, you also noticed that, as you were playing the game and progressed through the lessons smoothly.

• You could've sworn that the dance battles before were more difficult than now,

• Like bitch, who the fuck was responsible for buffing these mfs up?? 😭🙏

• You thought that Satan hated it when you touched him

• So why the fuck were you getting heart reactions from him when you accidentally tapped his head once when your phone fell on your head?!

• And the voicelines...

• Holy shit the voicelines...

• if you EVER have Asmo as the person— or demon in this case— that'll show up on your D.D.D screen, and if you're playing somewhere around 12am-3am...

• ...😰🙏

• Man's practically gonna lecture you about how lack of sleep can damage your skin

• AND YOU CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT

"What the hell are you doing at 12am?! Aren't humans supposed to sleep at this time?!"

• The demon exclaimed with wide eyes and a pout on his lips. Im imagining it and its so funny lmfao.

"WHAT THE FU—"

• ...Yeah you didn't play for a few days after that.

• Did Asmo scare you too much??

• My hands smell like soy sauce what the fuck.

• That's not the only reason, but school was being bitch and decided to throw exams, assignments, projects, and more to your sleepless self! :D

• Also because you desperately needed to fix up your sleep schedule and you needed to buy sleeping pills for your deprived ass, but they didn't need to know about that now, do they????

• And since you read a lot— no, actually... too many fanfics for game characters being self-aware...

• You suspected that they're now apparently... self-aware!

• You know how you always have to play obey me in landscape on your phone??

• Cuz' what I'm trying to say here is that they can basically see your pretty face through your camera, but only occasionally.

• Yk why??

• Cuz you usually keep on covering the damn camera on your phone :( aka the front camera on the top on your phone whenever you're in story mode, dance battles, devilgram posts or whatever you called it, and pretty much the entire time you play Obey Me.

• But they don't have the heart to say it out loud to you! :<

• But hearing your laughs whenever your eyes bear witness to the brother's banter or your hymns of praises directed towards them whenever you win another dance battle is enough for them to be content with the time they spend with you.

• But it doesn't mean that they don't want more.

• How could they NOT want more?

• They want every. single. ounce. of your. attention.

• But yet...

• Your so close to them. Yet so far away.

• You tossed and turned in your sleep, cold sweat dripping off your forehead as your nightmare got the hold of yourself.

• Tears welled up in your closed eyes as you subconsiously muttered out incomprehensible gibberish in your sleep.

SON OF A BITCH?!

• You exclaimed as you immediately sat up in bed and shaked the thick covers of your blanket as if you would pass out from a heatstroke if it covered your seemingly traumatized form any second longer.

• You went out of your room to get some water to calm your tears down a little.

• After staying in the dining room for maybe... the past 30 minutes or so, you finally went back to your safe haven; your room of course!

• You lay down in bed; exhausted yet not tired enough to lull yourself back to sleep.

• And so, with dark circles and dried tears on your face, you decided to open your phone and play the only game you have in your full-storaged device; Obey Me! :D

• You waited for the game to finish loading with half-lidded eyes. Damn the wifi for being shitty this... midnight?

UGH FINALLY...

• You exclaimed loudly in your bed.

• 2:04am. The D.D.D showed you. Wait how long were you awake again???

• Idk if you have Mammon as the demon that pops up in your D.D.D, but here you go-

• Did I make him ooc? 😰

Oi, human! I heard ya cryin' earlier. Ya ok?!

• THERES NO YELLOW FOR THE TEXT COLOR WHAY?!

• The white-haired demon exclaimed with a frown. Oh shit, that's one way to assure yourself that they're self-aware. But you didn't they can hear you too, so what—

The fuck? I didn't know they can hear me too... 😭🙏

• You murmured out. Yep. Mammon heard that.

Oh shit! Does this mean that they heard me scream at a cockroach while I was playing before?! 😰

• ...He heard that too.

What? -Mammon

OMFG IM DONE GUYS! IM DONE! Sorry it took me forever though 😭🙏

Today...is a very special and important day for me, folks~💝😊Three years ago, a certain special troll became the highlight of my 2020 during rough times and immediately won my heart from the moment I knew he would have his own destiny and journey to find others like him...and his family.

[dokoni-mo]

Just to be clear, this isn’t a request, this is a thirst with a question!

So say it’s Halloween in the bunny universe, and Micheal leaves to go spend it with his siblings. So naturally, our favorite Peepaw Afton invites his darling little bunny over, because he just misses them so much. And maybe they haven’t been able to see each other for a little, so William daddy is certainly pent up and just want to feel bunny again

Bunny knows this. They’ve missed him too, and they want to surprise him. Really surprise him. So how will they do it?

Purple Playboy bunny suit. A purple playboy bunny suit. The ears, the tail, the bow tie, and the cuff bracelets all, of it.

Bunny might end up giving him a heart attack

There is something I’d like your opinion on. I can’t decide if William would prefer fishnets, regular tights, or bare legs. I’m kinda leaning towards regular tights, I feel like he would love to rip them to get to his bunny faster 💜

cherry my beloved you are gonna be the death of me /pos

minors dni

warnings: just some word vomit loll, age-gap relationship (reader 20 will almost 40 you know the deal), swearing, sensual touching, sir kink, dom/sub understones, established relationship, not proofread bc i was typing this at like 3872 words per second aklsdfj

Will is definitely definitely a see-through tights kinda guy. Like you know the ones that are kinda sheer, but still have some color to them? He definitely likes those. Fishnets are just a pain to take off. And bare legs are fine of course, but there's just something about the tights that really get him going. Maybe its the fact that they're just barely covering what he wants? Or just likes the look to them? Maybe. But in my opinion, it would be more so because he could rip them off, and he likes the way the plush of your thighs pokes out of them when he does. He loves how soft his bunny is, and unwrapping them like a present just for him is a (not-so) guilty pleasure of his.

I can also see him as like the type of person where like he thinks he's expected to come up with all the surprises and all that in the relationship. He very much likes to wear the pants, and what he says goes. He just wants his bunny to be good for him and love him unconditionally. That's all he ever asks. And when little bunny is good for him, that's when he gets to spoil them.

So if you were to show up in such a surprise for him?? Oh my goodness gracious. He'd be fucking floored.

When Michael told him that he'd be taking out Liz and Evan for halloween, William just knew it was the perfect opportunity to see you. Around the holiday, the diner gets busier than ever decorating and doing on-brand things in celebration. William is an old fart that hates both kids and halloween, so that week is always super stressful for him. Adding on to the stress, he barely gets a chance to see his bunny. Can't even call them on the phone. He gets really fucking frustrated. To the point he can't even relieve himself. When you finally come over halloween night, he's already drooling over having you in his bed again, imagining all the different ways he'll get to play with his bunny.

I can imagine you showing up in like,, an almost comically large coat trynna keep the outfit a secret,, so when he opens the door he's just like,

"Bunny? Are you alright? I don't believe it's that cold... Are you not feeling well, love?"

You scuttle inside and he shuts the door behind you, "No, no, It's just... I didn't know how else to keep your surprise a surprise."

"A surprise? For me? My darling, you know you don't have to do anything like that. Just having you here is all I need, sweet thing."

You take him by the hand and drag him into his bedroom, your cheeks heated in your embarrassment, "Just... trust me, okay? I think you're gonna like it."

He sits on the edge of his bed as you stand in front of him, too nervous to make any sort of eye contact. He watches as you slowly but surely take off your coat and drop it to the floor, feeling heat creeping down his neck as you put on your little bunny-ear headband.

Fucking god you're so cute to him. And purple too? You payed attention well, didn't you bunny? You picked that color for him, didn't you? Oh, his precious little one. His sweet adorable rabbit. You missed him too, didn't you? Of course you did. He missed you just as much. Can't you see it? Especially in the way his pants were already staring to tent?

"I-I'm sorry if you don't like it, but..." you peeped out, "I just saw it at the store and... You always say I'm your bunny, so..."

William didn't say a word as he stood up from his seat, reaching out and grabbing you by the waist and pulling you close. His large, strong hands were already wandering your body, feeling the fabric of your little costume on his fingertips. Pressed against him, you could already feel the effect your little surprise had on him against your thigh as he whispered to you.

"You have five seconds to get on that bed. Now. Or sir won't be very kind to you tonight, bunny."

[doumadono]

Hey so I didn't think I'd need to use this, but if your Emergency Requests are open, I could seriously use some comfort right now..

So I was supposed to get a kitten soon from a friend who's cat had just had babies and I haven't had a cat in years since my previous baby died in 2021 during an extremely hard time in my life. And I was so incredibly excited to meet him and I had all of the stuff ready for him to come home to me, I just had to wait a few more weeks for him to be old enough. Well yesterday I got some horrific news that he had passed away and I spent about 3 hours crying so hard about the loss of a kitten I never even got to meet and I'm still extremely torn up about it.

Could you possibly write something about some of the Hashira (preferably Sanemi, Tengen, Giyuu, Kyojuro, and Obanai) helping their partner (they/them pronouns) deal with the grief of losing a beloved animal? You don't have to do all of those Hashira if that's too many, any of them will work fine. I just feel so swallowed up in this and I really don't know how to cope properly right now.

Thank you so much, my love💜

Hashiras & s/o who lost beloved animal - headcanons

A/N: I'm truly saddened to learn about your loss, my dear. Even though you didn't have the chance to meet that wonderful furry soul, it's completely natural for you to grieve. Your heart and home were ready to embrace them, showering them with all the love they could ever need. Take all the time you need to navigate through the mourning process. Of course feel free to reach out to me – whether it's here or on Instagram. I'm here for you ♥ I trust these small headcanons will provide a measure of solace.

MASTERLIST

Sanemi Shinazugawa

When he notices his partner's heavy heart due to the loss of their beloved animal, Sanemi decides to take a straightforward approach. He invites them to join him for a training session. With a mix of tough love and encouragement, he pushes them to channel their emotions into their movements. As they spar and practice together, he reminds them that strength comes from within, and sometimes pushing through physical challenges can help ease the weight of emotional pain. And in his own gruff way, he lets them know that he's there to support them every step of the way.

Tengen Uzui

Tengen understands the power of distraction and beauty. He takes their mind off the grief by whisking them away to a serene garden or a lively festival. He's the epitome of flamboyance and indulgence, but in this case, his extravagant gestures are all about making their partner smile again. He encourages them to express their feelings through art or music, even if they've never tried it before.

Giyuu Tomioka

Giyuu is quiet and reserved, but he's incredibly sensitive to their emotions. He doesn't overwhelm them with words, but he's a steady presence by their side. He brings them calming teas and sits with them by a tranquil river or under a cherry blossom tree, offering silent support. He shares stories about the strength and resilience of nature, reminding them that life is a cycle of beginnings and endings.

Kyojuro Rengoku

Kyojuro Rengoku, with his boundless energy and enthusiasm, knows that sometimes comfort can come in the form of a delicious meal. He spends the day in the kitchen, whipping up an array of their favorite comfort foods. The aroma of delicious dishes fills the air as he presents a table laden with a feast of flavors. With a warm smile, he encourages them to eat to their heart's content, reminding them that even in moments of sadness, there's solace in sharing a good meal and finding joy in the simple pleasures of life.

Obanai Iguro

Obanai's approach is gentle and soothing, grounded in tradition and mindfulness. He introduces them to the art of meditation and deep breathing, guiding them through moments of inner peace. He believes that by embracing stillness, they can feel their animal companion's presence in their hearts. He encourages them to plant a tree or a flower in honor of their beloved animal, fostering a connection between life and remembrance.

Wonderful day in Thailand. but now for the important questions.

Your favourite locations for our beloved ql couples to have their wedding reception?

Rose💜

Olá, @my-rose-tinted-glasses!

I'm a little late with my response, but these are some wedding locations I've thought of. I left out all schools, hotels, wedding studios and places with religious affiliations and chose a few places that would probably work better in fiction than in real life.

If you want a bridge, because those are kinda iconic, I'd say Chao Phraya Sky Park, which is in the middle of the Phra Pok Klao Bridge as seen in Cherry Magic Thailand, Last Twilight and Low Frequency's Official Pilot (location)

If you want a park proper, I'd say Benjakitti Park, but at night when it's less hot, as seen in Vice Versa (location)

If you'd like a plane, I'd think of Na-Oh Bangkok, as seen in Vice Versa and Y-Destiny (location)

If you like trains, here's Hua Lampong Station as seen in Theory of Love and My Stand-In (location)

If you like feeling a little rebellious and making noise where you shouldn't usually, how about the Neilson Hayes Library, as seen in Enchante and Shadow? (location)

I’m a slut for a good heist, what’ve you got cooked up so far? 💜

cee my love let us walk and talk

so the conman!steve au has been once again on my mind like a hat for many a hundred of year mostly because i want him to have his danny ocean moment!!!! and danny ocean isn't full smooth either, he's got a little goofy energy like steve has

this really came to light after i got this whopper prompt request from my love cherry @stveharringtn

and with this i formulated the plan.

steve is fresh out of the joint, and you're a former mark of his. you met him while working at a country club in order to put yourself through college. during this whirlwind little affair, he (stupidly?) had you stash a number of stolen pieces of jewelry on his behalf. he eventually went to jail for this and the running theory is you're the one who ratted him out-- the main runner of this theory is robin buckley, president of the don't shit where you eat club, and steve can see where she's coming from. but still. love prevails and makes you do dumb shit.

you, on the other hand? well, since steve's arrest, you changed your career path-- studied to become a gemologist so the next time some bastard in a linen suit asks you to hold a couple of sparklers, you'll at least know what they're worth. you're currently working as a fence in new york's diamond district.

and steve harrington is back on the streets. and old habits die hard.

supporting cast of characters include but are not limited to--

the aforementioned robin buckley as steve's partner in crime (our resident rusty ryan), dustin henderson as the bright-eyed young pickpocket-turned-professional conman under steve and robin's detailed tutelage, eddie munson as our beloved munitions expert, lucas sinclair and mike wheeler as the resident getaway drivers and will byers as the surveillance expert.

and on your end? you've got jane hopper and max mayfield working as your very own diamond scouts-- two former teenage cat burglars who you weren't about to leave starving in hell's kitchen.

the student becomes the master.

but then the master approaches you with a plan to lift millions of precious jewels from a prestigious new york exhibit (one that nancy wheeler happens to be managing (robin? your wife is calling)). he also plans on lifting YOUR HEART!!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!!

[rmd-writes]

hello dear beloved rae ❤️💜

@welcometololaland and i would like to submit a super special custom kiss prompt. pretty pretty please with a cherry on top, can you write for us:

tarlos - kiss in a tack room

(and because it's us, a dash of 🔥 would be very welcome)

cannot believe this has been sitting in my inbox for over a year 🫣🫣 but it’s @welcometololaland’s birthday so I thought I’d finally write this custom kiss prompt for you both 💖

It’s a wonder TK survived. Following Carlos on horseback for an hour, watching his perfect ass bounce in the saddle and the way this thighs flexed underneath his jeans as he moved was the most exquisite torture. Not to mention the way he steered his horse with just one hand on the reins, leaving the other to gesture to TK and point out various landmarks on the trail that TK is sure he was supposed to be paying attention to but all of his brain power was being sucked up by the dual forces of the sight of his husband riding a horse very competently and trying not to fall off his own horse in the process.

It was worse than watching Carlos steer the Camaro with one hand which always tempts him to offer Carlos road head even though it’s impossible in the Camaro. Not for lack of trying though.

Now though, TK’s been forced to watch Carlos take the tack off the horses, his flannel shirt discarded due to the heat leaving him in a tight white tank top and jeans that hug the curves of his thighs. In short, Carlos looks like a walking wet dream and TK is struggling.

“You know, you could help,” Carlos says drily, lifting a saddle off Snickers.

“And give up the view?” TK quips, waggling his eyebrows.

Carlos only shakes his head and carries the saddle to the rack room. TK follows him and as soon as Carlos has places the saddle on the rack, TK pounces.

“You are impossible,” he pronounces, hands firm on Carlos’ hips as he walks him backwards towards the door and pushes him into it.

“TK, this is the tack room.”

“And?” TK makes his lack of concern about their location clear by sucking lightly at the tendon on Carlos’ neck, feeling smug when he elicits a low groan from him.

“We can’t do this here.” Carlos protests weakly.

TK’s hands are already underneath Carlos’ tank top as he kisses him, demanding Carlos open to him with the press of his tongue and shoving a thigh between Carlos’ legs, kissing him until his head spins.

“If you don’t want to do this, we can stop,” TK says, pulling back for a moment, but Carlos is already rocking against his thigh and TK knows that he’s won.

“We don’t have long,” Carlos warns, tipping his head back against the wooden door.

“Sounds like a challenge, babe.” TK smirks, unbuttoning Carlos jeans and then sinking to his knees.

Sorry for that question but I really curious!

What made you fell in love with Cross and Lust?

Tell us more!!

😳😳😳 hhuh what rreally,, , ,,, 😳 u wanna hear me yap abt my sillies, my beloveds,,, (i appreciate the enthusiasm tho omg 🥺🫶🫶🫶)

i want to have the yuris with lust and the yaois with cross I I MEAN HWHWAT 🧍‍♂️

UM.

haha anyWAY,, (oh gog this ended up long)

🍫—

cross checks so many boxes for me it makes me go insane. too good to be true. versatile(??)— like it's somehow way too easy to put him in Situations. (he's bf and husbone material??? just -20hp me now; that already kills me) he's. hh. gawddamn there's reasons why he won a utmv sans sexyman poll.

he's like a crush that you can't get out of your head no matter what you do, i'm so freaking down bad for him it's not even funny anymore. ever since simping for cross i have not been the same since. the man has changed me. the attraction/simp feelings hit me like a bat out of nowhere and i don't understand why it's so intense— i. hh.

,,i like when ppl make him dorky. stupidly silly (absolutely love shitpost shenanigans and would absolutely LOVE to get into silly shenanigans with him and with/without his bestie epic). fun to be around when he's deemed you as a good friend. stars, he'd give good hugs. strong, solid, and warm, the kind of hugs u don't wanna pull away from so soon. a little endearingly cringe. fanon simp cross is adorable and fun to mess around with. tsundere cross is adorable and fun to mess with. cute anxious guy under all that intimidating aloofness. when i say his smile is an absolute treasure, i mean that. his blush making him look like a grape or a glowing bulb is adorable and makes me wanna tease him more. anime protag/character vibes so strong i wanna have a cute bl/shoujo manga romance with him type shit yk.

then there's times when he's The Hot Dude and i think it's illegal if he's all confident and smug and dom actually (/hj) cause that makes me wanna fucking fite him HELLO? SIR? ILLEGAL????? (<- the fight or flight response of a tsundere towards a milder tsundere LOL).

-hp every single time. mf gets successful d20 rolls w/ rizz on me and i get a critical hit every time. it's a 50/50 either i fluster to death and become weak or i wanna fite his dumbass

i'll. i can fight him. i'll lose but i can fight him for sure. (why is he so cool⁉️‼️💢💢💢RRRRRRR)

he makes me feel things. lots of things. (mostly fluster but when i'm feelin sooper soff i jst wanna shower his skull in keeses. ima kissy lil guy)

tired cross makes me just wanna take care of him. want him to come home to me without any worry because he thinks i'm his safe space.

when he's being stubborn i want to tell him to chill out for a little while, take a break and watch some funny stuff while drinking choccy milk or eating his fav foods and be cozy. bapping him if he's gonna try to get out of this too soon. he's gonna get the free time he deserves n relax n get cuddles n kithes.

the way he can gently hold my hand and look at me with a sincere look in his eyelights and say something genuinely affectionate feels like cupid shooting an arrow through my soul, but also feels like a balm. (a promise of loyalty and faithfulness.) (a kiss on the forehead? a cherry on top.)

well now i can't be mean to him with all the nice he's saying and doing. i just want nice things for him o(-< (even if he's a bastard sometimes lol<3 all circles back to the silly) (silly is always important)

💜—

i love lust. so so so much. the fanon interpretation of him, anyway.

(don't get me wrong, i absolutely adore the feminine slay content of lust; but am i wrong for yearning for more masc lust content?)

i like my lust sans respectful, goofy, sans-like, an absolute sweetheart, and a caring, wonderful life partner. under the flirty personality and charm(ing looks), is a sans behavior that made me fall deeper. (he makes me feel very gender too) (ohmygofd yeah no he actually makes me think of gender sometimes rauauagrrgh<3/pos). i don't have to worry about showing my cring, weird side to him, because he's also a gremlin,, o(-< he doesn't have to present himself all nice and pretty all the time (although he's always pretty in my eyes). he can be comfortably himself; with me 🥺

i want to be his safe space.

i want to see him heal and be happy and be happy with me and give him all the love i can give and care for him and make him soso happy i just want him to feel SO sosososo loved, he deserves so much more

he's the only one who's able to get a certain reaction out of me; to pull flowers out of my heart. to pull out words of love and devotion and appreciation, heart bursting with affection only for him.

for him, i would try. i would live for him. i wish someone like him (the him i've created from interpretations and headcanons) was real irl.

i want to not care i don't care if he's a gorgeous well-known person that people fawn over, or if he's a campus crush, etc.,

i want him to think i'm worthy enough to keep in his life. for him to know how special he is to me, for him to know how much i want him in my life as much as i want him to keep me in his.

my immediate reaction when i think of him is: 😊💕💜💜💜eeeee kicks and giggles and flaps hands teehee

i love him so much i get a heart-on for him (/silly but it is true sometimes; love him so much it aches (in a good way))

My sweet puffin dumpling cherry filled blueberry pie in the sky with fluffy marshmallow clouds.

What the moments that made you look at jikook suspish… I’m talking moments that made you pause and wonder what in the gay was going on. Or moments that wake you up in the middle of the night?.

One of mine is jikook dynamite Christmas song.

I love you, and I miss you, my beloved love story 💜💜

Hello my Rainbow Cupcake Sprinkle!! I love and miss you too!!! 💜💜💜💛💛💛

I love this question, because those two are suspicious as fuck.

I'll start with the first time I asked myself "What in the gay heaven is going on here?"

That would be Jungkook's extremely enthusiastic response to Jimin's "Lie" performance. Dude was THIRSTY. All that gulping and watching with his mouth wide open. Questions were being asked of himself.

Second would be the Coming of Age ceremony. Because yes, when I become a legal adult who can engage in intimacies with my older lover, I too pick a song that is about just that, and also pick the man I would thus be engaging in these intimacies with to perform with me.

Let us not forget how JK told us it was hard for him to run with his hands tied and Jimin said that he had actually liked it. JK giggled like a school girl crying no, but his body language said Yes Sir.

Speaking of hands tied, Jimin is a little too good at tying his own hands up and being pulled comfortably with a leash.

The "for twitter" selfie that was never posted on Twitter. JK'S face screamed gay panic.

That one American interview, I think from 2015, where JK is standing behind Jimin and is basically rutting against Jimin's moving fingers. Dirty boys. Exhibitionists in their natural habitat.

Lana Del Ray. That's all I'm gonna say.

legit could not decide for wip wonsday so let the dice choose, and they’ve picked the bear au (my beloved) please and ty 💜

bear au for you my beloved kk, thank you for the motivation on this day 🥹💛

help me write!

It’s interesting, having him in this place, in that since Robin moved back in with her parents, she hasn’t really had friends over. There’s a certain level of humiliation to the whole thing, because even if her parents are more than open to her having guests, having to explain to the guests that her parents might be in and out when she’s a fully grown adult is just… Well, it brings about a whole slew of questions she doesn’t feel like answering. 

How she failed so hard to end up here. Stuff like that. 

Steve Harrington, though, had walked in while both of her parents were making their way out the door to go to work and he had just gone and charmed the pants off of them. All that poise of a kid who grew up around more adults than other kids his own age; all that ease of talking to people that Robin still struggles with on a daily basis. 

It felt like a masterclass in interpersonal communication as he waved them goodbye and settled himself into the Buckley home, and even now it doesn’t feel awkward the way she kind of expected it to. He just integrates himself into her world and doesn’t judge her for any of it and watches her spend hours making lunch with the extra groceries she asked him to pick up on the way. 

“I’m not really a, uh,” Robin chuckles self-deprecatingly, “I’m like— if I stop moving, I die. I’m pretty sure.” 

Steve hums and plucks a cherry tomato to pop in his mouth before she can stop him. 

“Like a shark,” he nods with too much understanding. 

“A…what?”

“A shark,” Steve repeats. “Stop moving you die, or whatever. That’s a shark thing.” 

“I…” Robin snorts. 

“Hey, I can know things,” Steve argues good naturedly, dropping his forearms to the counter and looking up at her with all that same charm, only different. Dialed down. More natural.

Cindle (@cindle-writes) is someone I cannot say enough lovely things about! I want to give a special thank you to Cindle for all of her amazing Mutuals March posts with this shoutout dedicated especially to her. 💜

I think it's safe to say Cindle has quickly established herself as a pillar of the Tomarrymort community, whether it be to cheerlead, beta, or simply enable those in our little corner of fandom. Not only that, Cindle consistently writes some of the most amazing fics in a wide range of characters, ships, and tropes -- providing us with delicious smut that often includes an amazing plot twist as the cherry on top!

Long story short, Cindle never ceases to amaze me with her dedication to this fandom, both as a talented author and a supportive friend. Her enthusiasm makes this space a better one!

Cindle, thank you for all that you do! We appreciate you so very much. 💜🛐 To celebrate you, here are a few favourite works of yours chosen by some of your friends!

☪ complete (Tom / Harry) E | 8.7k | Complete | Underage

Everything about this fic is perfect! There are so many yummy angst pieces of young Tom’s sad orphan backstory that are reflected in his (manipulative) interactions with Harry, and it meshes so beautifully with Harry's initial polite treatment of him as they get to know each other. Of course, the 'strangers' aspect speedruns right into 'lovers' once Harry realizes his newly-adopted baby Dark Lord is actually an omega. The ensuing smut is 👏🏼🥵🔥💯😈 !! I go absolutely feral for this dynamic and this fic delivers on every count.

☪ dawn of a death of a dream (Tom / Harry) E | 53.8k | On-Going | No Archive Warnings Apply

This story demonstrates just how patient a young Tom Riddle was when it came to achieving his goals, and I just love how even with Harry being so certain Tom manages to capture him in his own messy web. We get mind games between enemies who often forget they are enemies, and allow their positive feelings for each other to shine through in a bid to trap the other using their intimate relationship. So fun & silly & WAIT WHAT?? 💜💜💜 ( this blurb written by Apples! 🍎)

☪ Everything Green Is Gold (Tom / Harry) E | 21.3k | On-Going | Underage

BABY HARRY BELOVED! Professor Riddle takes first year Harry under his wing and teaches him sooo many things 😏🍆. Cindle really outdid herself on this story -- Tom is super manipulative with everything he does, but he is also so attentive with Harry in the process that even though we know what's happening, we're liable to... forget. Just a little 🤏. A million kudos for such a hot and realistic depiction 🔥!!

☪ in bad faith (Voldemort / Harry, Cedric / Harry) E | 2.9k | Complete | Non-Con, Underage

This fic builds on an already fantastic premise -- an AU of GoF where Voldemort captures Cedric (and Harry!) -- and expands it to include even more angst! The smut is delicious and the plot twist at the end had me going insane. Without spoiling too much, I will say I love the aspects of the original dynamic surrounding Cedric, Harry, and Voldemort that are incorporated into this glorious mindfuck continuation.

☪ i’ve missed you, my boy (Tom / Harry) E | 1.9k | Complete | Underage

One of the BEST plot twists I have ever read! Harry’s complex relationship with Voldemort is done so well in this post-war AU. I don’t want to spoil anything, but the reread value of this fic is incredible -- in the brief span of a few thousand words, we get so much character insight and build up to a truly incredible reveal. It is a delight going back and picking out all the details that lends to just how deeply messed up and multilayered this relationship is!

☪ last rites (Scarcrux / Harry) E | 5.1k | Complete | Major Character Death

Such a HOT fic. Scarcrux knows all of Harry's deepest, darkest secrets -- including just how he likes to get off. Watching Harry's resistance crumble in the face of Tom's careful seduction is one of my favourite dynamics in this ship! And BOTTOM TOM is the whipped cream hat on this perfect PWP parfait. 💜🔥 We deserve more fics like this one, where Tom gets what he wants!

☪ the dark passenger (Al / Harry, Tom / Harry) E | 5k | Complete | Non-Con, Underage

Cindle's next-gen writing is a huge part of why I have any interest at all in those characters, and this story is a great example of why! In this fic, we navigate Al's co-dependent relationship with Harry as his loving father and (though he doesn't know it!) his fated enemy. The merging of Al and Tom's personalities is so well done and elevates both ship aspects of the story, as well as seeing Harry through the lens of Al-with-Tom, in such a unique way!
