#he should be romanceable istg

[lehguru]

BE MINE + ONE PIECE MEN

request: them asking the reader to be their partner + luffy, zoro, sanji & law

info: gn!reader, i forgor how i characterize them so bear with me, also this is me trying to crawl back to one piece so im sorry if its rlly bad; not proofread!!! (i should start asking ppl to beta read those istg)

monkey d.luffy didn't really straight up asked you to be his partner. luffy being luffy, he walked up to you one day and said that you were his partner. you, having feelings for the captain for a really long time now, chuckled nervously, asking "what do you mean?". as he explained that nami told him that if he liked you, then he should ask you out, you could hear the red head sighing from somewhere—you knew at least half of the crew was watching you two right now. you laughed softly at the proud smile he wore and nodded, agreeing to be his.

roronoa zoro was almost the same as luffy, but at least he had the decency to actually ask you about it. during a beautiful day, you were on one side of the little garden that was built in the thousand sunny's deck, helping robin to water the plants. out of nowhere, a shadow was cast upon your crouching form; looking up, you noticed the green haired swordsman and smiled at him, getting up. "yes, zor—"

cutting you off, he asked in the same stoic tone he almost always had: "do you want to be my partner?". your eyes went wide and you let out a small exclamation of surprise. taking that as a denial, he turned back and started to walk away, but you managed to yell out his name. "yes! i will be your partner." the man huffed and nodded, but you could see a slight blush dusting his cheekbones.

when the subject is romance and love, you always expect sanji to be a master at it. out of everyone, he should be the one knowing how to ask someone to be his significant other, but he has never felt this... strongly about someone like he feels about you. when he approaches you to ask that, he's holding a little box with your favorite dessert, his long slender fingers shaking a little as words seemed to catch on his throat for the first time in front of someone he loves. he took a deep breath, a bead of sweat dripping down the back of his neck, you touching his arm and asking 'is everything okay, sanji?' with your sweet voice sent him over the edge. "do you want to date me?", his words were clear for him, but for you, he simply spat all of them out at the same time. you told him to breathe and say it again, and he did, his eyes looking at the floor with the shame of the rejection that would surely come his way. your head almost bumped on his as you jumped on his arms, screaming a yes and giggling loudly. he hugged you and spun you around, giggles of his own leaving his pink lips.

trafalgar d.water law didn't want to acknowledge his feelings for you. you were one of his closest friends, one of the few people he trusted the most—you knew things about him that he never told another soul; so he was afraid of losing you. terrified even. he had lost enough people that he loved during his life and he couldn't bear to lose another one. but... his other friends knew a little too much about his "silly" feelings.

"c'mon man, go ask them out." law saw himself being cornered by penguin, sachi and bepo one day, all of them with playful expressions. "the worst you can get is a punch."

he tried to ignore them, ignore how his cheeks seemed to be heating up, but they were being so obnoxious and annoying, he couldn't handle them anymore. with a burst of rage, he yelled at them, "can you shut up? i don't like them and they don't like me, either!"

"like who?" your voice made his heart leave his body and he felt like stabbing the three men—and bear—that were running away now. "no one." law replied, scoffing to himself for the slip up. "torao! tell me! come on!" now you were the one bugging him and he rubbed his face with his hand. you poked his cheek, giving him a little pout. "law, please!"

"it's you." he snapped, making you freeze. "it's you, dumbass." surprising the man, you started to giggle, making him go from annoyed to even more embarassed. "what?" you kissed his lips softly and started to walk away, saying that you accepted to be his partner.

Diabolik lovers x reader (various)

Guys don't bully me this is my first post istg i'll bomb your family

A symphony of explosions ruptured through the sky as the angels above blew their mighty vessels of war. Forks of lightning licked through the heavens, warning those near and far of the impending eruption soon to blast their ear drums. The cascading shower hydrated the manor's old stone walls, grasping at whatever cracks they could get into, only to slip away from the house's embrace at the last second. The moon nor its many luminous companions could be seen as their everlasting beauty was hidden behind storm clouds. A whirlwind soon picked up, shaking the trees like a damned mad woman, soon to be lobotomized. Amidst all this eternal chaos however, was a girl simply trying to survive. She was just dropped off at a glorious mansion that ironically, seemed to hold a sort of deathly allure to it, despite it being right out of a romance novel. She was currently sitting on a royal blue sofa of the finest quality, a strange and perplexed looking man with spectacles adorned the couch opposite her. He had raven black and white ombre hair. Regardless of their contrasting colours, it seemed to take well on him. He gave off a sophisticated but yet also suffocating aura that seemed to envelop the entire room. He looked at you in a bit of a shock after hearing your story, no matter how hard he tried to remain stoic, the words you spoke completely baffled him.

"Would you please further elaborate on what you mean by 'caretaker'?" The man asked, the words barely leaving his tongue.

"Well uhm, like I said, I'll be staying here until an heir to the Sakamaki name is made and then I'll be their caretaker. Mr. Karlheinz specified that he'd prefer I raise the child because well.... He didn't technically state WHY I'm supposed to basically mother your child, besides I-I mean you seem perfectly capable! It's just that, well that's what I was sent here to do". You said, trying to explain your task as quickly as possible. You couldn't pinpoint why, but an urge to leave planted itself in your gut and you felt the need to end this interaction as soon as possible.

The man stayed silent for a second before humming out an acknowledgement to your statement. The air was tense as he stood up and spoke.

"Well then, I'm not sure why we weren't aware of something like this, however, let me be the first to greet you to the Sakamaki manor y/n." Just as he said that, a young man with a head of scorching flames entered. His appearance was tattered and unruly. A pant leg was up, while the other remained down, his shirt wasn't fully buttoned and his tie was worn tied around his neck like some sort of odd fashion statement. As soon as his emerald eyes locked onto yours, a smirk creeped its way onto his face.

"Oi Reiji, you didn't say nothin about us having a guest over." The boy spoke, his voice gnarled and sharp.

"I was unaware of her arrival, that man apparently sent us a.....babysitter." Reiji sighed at the end, his imminent frustration growing.

"Uh no no- it's not like that! I'm just here to take care of your child..well future child. I didn't know you had a brother though, Reiji.." You piped in, your brows knitting in a slight confusion as you weren't informed of Karl having more than one son. You originally thought that his son and daughter-in-law were too busy to take care of a child, so that's why you agreed to this whole thing. But now that you were thinking about it, where exactly was the girl? Your thoughts were interrupted as the ruby haired boy let out a mocking snort.

"You mean to tell me that the old man didn't mention there being six of us? pfft- hah!" The boy spoke. Your heart almost plummeted into your ass as your mind slowly processed his words. Six??? There were six of them?

"Yes I'll have to agree with Ayato. It's odd that man didn't mention there's six of us." Reiji said as he fixed his glasses. "Well in that case, it seems an introduction should be made as soon as possible." As he finished speaking, a slight gush of wind hit you from all different angles. Suddenly four more men appeared out of what seemed to be thin air. They watched you coldly despite them all seeming to have different personalities. Silently judging you...no- not judging, but instead sizing you up. You've been in this situation enough times to know what men's stares mean, and these men wanted nothing good. The boy with purple hair spoke first.

"Teddy- what do you think of our new plaything? Doesn't she look lovely? I wonder what she tastes like, certainly not as good as Yui, but I'd still like to try." For the third time tonight you felt like you could scream. He wasn't being serious was he? This has to be some sort of persona, why would he even say that?? You inched behind Reiji, hoping the man could provide some form of shelter.

"Tsk. Go on and introduce yourself, or do I need to do that for you as well? Hiding behind me like a coward, slinking away the minute things seem to get too troublesome for you....honestly I have no idea why you were selected to come here in the first place. What does that man even see in you?" Reiji said with a scoff, his cold words leaving a shiver down your spine and a dent in your self esteem. You felt embarrassed as you sheepishly crawled away from Reiji to introduce yourself.

Once formalities were finally over with a few weird remark here and there, you were shown to your room. It was quite large, but you expected nothing less after seeing the size of the mansion. Truthfully, you were hoping to have a nice room this entire time. A dome glass ceiling sat right in the middle of the room, illuminating it with a blueish hue. The positioning of the bed was a bit odd, yet it captivated those who were to occupy in the residence. It was a circular bed that was laid with golden satin sheets and a marble platform which held up the delicate mattress. It stood right under the dome which would serve for lovely stargazing. There were many fine intricacies and details done to the bed's platform which made it seem much more compelling than a regular bed. The room was oddly laden with bookshelves and hanging plants. This seemed to soften up the room's regality and tone it down for someone of a more modern time. But you admitted that you wouldn't of mind sleeping in a princess like bedroom. Once you were done unpacking, you made your way downstairs since no one would be up at this hour. Instead, you were met with all brothers and a young blonde. She was delicately beautiful like a rose garden after a storm. You could feel her personality seep through from her meek behaviour. You did wonder though, who'd be the father if there were six of them? But before you could ponder the situation anymore, you noticed they were all in uniform despite it being night. You do recall that Karl mentioned they kept a bit of a peculiar schedule, but even so, is this really what he meant? School at night? You supposed it wasn't too weird for people of such high status to be so busy during the day that they'd have to go to school at night. But even so, how could a human possibly function like this? They'd all be braindead zombies by now, strange was definitely one of the many words to describe this lot.

"As we were late to know of your arrival, we hadn't planned for you to be joining us. Since you lack proper attire, you'll be staying back tonight." Reiji spoke almost exasperatedly. You almost felt a bit scared to stay in such an usual place by yourself. Reiji caught the look on your face and clicked his tongue.

"You truly think we'd let you stay here by yourself? One of us is going to remain here with you until the others are back." Reiji said bluntly. Who was it that was going to babysit you while they were away? Maybe this was your chance to learn more about your new housemates. Your eyes scanned the room, looking for your possible sitter. Then, in an instant you both made eye contact. Both orbs absorbed in each other as the others in the room seemed to be nothing more than an afterthought.

Ok so this is just part one of the series I'm planning. I'll let you guys vote on who it was that caught the reader's attention. TY for reading this btw :( I've been obsessed with this franchise since I was 11 so I'm insane currently.

serendipity. (viii)

─── chapter 8 ! ~ no secrets allowed (if you say so)

summary; when you, a waitress at the local coffee shop, are paired up with the new recruit scaramouche, you’re pretty sure both of you are going to get fired within a week. he’s just quit being a social media influencer and after being forced to work here to make ends meet, he’s ready to let everyone there know how much he hates it. the worst part? you can’t shake the feeling that you know him from somewhere. but as he slowly warms up to you, scaramouche realises that having a fresh start isn’t that bad after all, and perhaps the two of you meeting like this was pure serendipity.

a/n; hiii !! it's been a While... (me who says that almost every chapter) anyways! so as it turns out, i found out that someone nominated serendipity in a scara smau oscars organised by @bark-anon ?!?! and i was like OMG 🥺 bc there are so many talented authors and amazing series, i'm genuinely honoured that someone thought serendipity belongs up there :') then i realised that i haven't updated this in Years so here's a new chapter!!! hopefully now i can consistently post and finally finish this series istg 😭 /lh anyways, thank you so much for nominating me, and i hope you enjoy this update! <3 also for further context + details abt what scara & yn are talking abt in this chapter, you should totally read cynosure 👀 (horrible self-promo LMAO)

First kiss and confession hcs for tangerine boi?

It would take a while for Gakushu to confess to anyone he holds romantic feelings for.

Not because he's shy or anything, but because he spent a good chunk of his life convincing himself that he doesn't need a romantic partner.

Once he comes to the realization that he likes someone, he will obviously take some time to think about whether or not he should go through it.

Like, istg this guy takes romance and treats it as some sort of business deal.

When he finally confesses, he would be completely honest and straight to the point.

Although, not even the great Gakushu Asano is immune to feeling nervous about confessing his feelings. 

This is the same guy who can get a corporate sponsor with ease. 

"I have developed feelings for you. I understand I can't say or do anything to make you feel the same way about me, however, I can give a list of reasons why us being together could be beneficial for you."

Sigh.

It's a good thing he's cute.

Anyway, it would surprise, but also not surprise him if the person he likes accepts his feelings. 

But the confession wouldn't end there. 

Nope.

Like I said before, he treats romance as some sort of business deal.

He would say stuff about meeting each other's parents, or what days of the week are best for dates, what should happen on birthdays, etc, etc.

As for a first kiss though.

Well...

That may take a while.

Look, he may be extremely popular, but this dude has never once kissed anybody.

It takes him a while just to hold hands.

When he eventually muster up the courage, he would find the most appropriate time to kiss his partner.

And he would definitely ask if his lover wants to be kissed.

In short, Gakushu may be overconfident in many things, but when it comes to romance, the poor guy is so awkward and unsure.

MK1 is such a bizarre experience bc on one hand some characters have benefited a lot from the "universe reset" (Baraka, Reptile, even arguably Shao who is less than a muahahaha conquer villain but someone who actually seems to care about his realm?). Others kind of raise interesting questions, like Shang Tsung : is he doomed to be bad or can he be good for a change? (In the story he choses to become a snake-oil salesman before joining the imperial family + there is an Union of Light Shang Tsung so him being good is a thing that could happen).

But then, instead of using that full reset NRS just leaves some things the same? Like. It's a reset. In 2023/2023. That was the perfect moment for implementing some (maybe not lots) changes. Perhaps starting making Johnny canonically bi? Just a small ripple towards a bigger change? Instead of getting stuck in same old ways?

YOW EXACTLY

Things i loved about Mk1 change:

Mileena and Kitana sibling relationship

Rain's character design

Tanya and Mileena!!!!

Sindel being badass empress and outworld thriving in peace under her reign

Baraka and Syzoth on the good side!!

Kenshi's yakuza past

Geras and Liu Kang's friendship! Liu Kang actually treating Geras as his equal 🥺 and Geras being so loyal to him 😫😭

Shang Tsung's zitsy behavior

Lin Kuei brothers 🥺

What i hate:

Hanzo being a kid and essentially everything about him being handed to Kuai Liang

Kung Lao being the second best again

Raiden and Kitana romance

Mileena and Tanya having the barest screen time

Controversial opinionated rant down below

I hated that they essentially just switched Liu Kang and Raiden's places. I started MK1 right after MK11 that i was furious to see Raiden chosen as the champion (IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MY BOY KUNG LAO LET HIM SHINE ISTG) and then flirting with Kitana with Liu Kang's exact line (I hope we meet again under different circumstances)??? Tf??

I understand that some plot elements are too good to change but character romances? Don't replace one side of the pairing, then try to serve it to the audience again! Reboot should give us more variety of character designs, stories, dynamics, and relationships. Give us the genderbent, queer, poc characters BC YOU'RE NOT EVEN SACRIFICING ANYTHING when we literally have infinite alternative timelines you can recall classics from. For example, we have our human Raiden and old man titan Raiden. We can do variety. I wanna see female Fujin, i wanna see Scorpion Harumi and fighter Suchin, i want actual deserved queer representation in Kung Jin, and i. wanna. see. canon Johnshi!

My hypothesis is that NRS is gonna bring in mk children through dimensional travel so that they don't need to age up our current characters. I'm saying this to push my point further that we don't need to repeat romance plotlines (dont come at me. I have bais just as you have bais for ur fav old pairings)

Listen, i loved Sonya and Johnny in previous games, her and Cassie were a huge part of Johnny's character arc, but since Johnny is already maturing by the end of mk1, i don't see a point in Cageblade anymore (very controversial but it's my blog so i will yap as much as i want) We are not erasing anything by possibly making Johnny queer. Johnny and Sonya can be married in different timeline and Cassie is still their child. If anything, we are enriching the character, expanding the universe. Really, I don't wanna buy the exact same game story in different graphics. I don't want to see Suchin die again just to serve Kenshi and Takeda's dynamic.

And don't even get me started again on heteronormality of the game. We have 6 realms that have diverse variety of biological and sociological configurations AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THEY ARE ALL HETEROSEXUAL?? NRS is a fucking pussy for not having enough queer representation. They think they can give us vague "blink, you will miss it" moments and move on. There are so many high selling good games with good lgbtq characters. Literal 2023's the game of the year, BG3 is so fucking gay that it's off to space and you're telling me that NRS is just going 🥺👉👈 but our fans 🥺👉👈

Anyways, NRS can eat shit and Johnshi for the president 🤘

The demon and the village

You stepped out of the forest as twilight descended, the last rays of sunlight casting a golden hue over the village. Your heart still pounded from your second encounter with Eddie, your mind racing with the implications of what had happened. You had touched him, felt the warmth of his fur beneath your fingers, and for a brief moment, you had seen something in his dark eyes that you couldn’t quite explain, something that made you want to return, to delve deeper into the mystery of who—or what—he was.

But as you neared the familiar outline of your home, a sense of dread began to creep in. You knew what awaited you—a confrontation you had been avoiding since the day you first ventured into the woods.

Your father was waiting for you at the entrance of your small cottage, his arms crossed over his broad chest. The lines on his weathered face seemed deeper than usual, his expression a hard, unyielding mask. He was a man of the earth, rooted in tradition and the ways of the village, and he did not tolerate defiance, especially from his daughter.

As you approached, he called out your name, his voice gruff and laced with barely contained anger. “Where have you been?”

You hesitated for a moment, then squared your shoulders, meeting his gaze head-on. “I went for a walk in the forest,” you replied, trying to keep your tone neutral.

Your father’s eyes narrowed, his frown deepening. “The forest? Again? How many times have I told you to stay away from those woods?” He took a step toward you, his voice rising. “It’s dangerous out there, child! You have no business wandering off alone like that.”

You bristled at his words, a spark of defiance igniting within you. “I’m not a child anymore, Father. I can take care of myself.”

“Take care of yourself?” he echoed, his voice laced with disbelief. “You think you know better than the rest of us? There’s a reason we stay out of those woods! There’s a reason we keep our distance.”

You clenched your fists, fighting to keep your voice steady. “You don’t understand. The forest isn’t what you think it is. It’s not just—”

Your father cut you off with a sharp gesture. “Enough!” His voice was harsh, carrying a rare intensity that made you take a step back. “You have no idea what you’re talking about. Do you think you’re the first to wander into those woods, to come back with tales of strange sights and sounds? There’s something out there, something dangerous!”

Your heart skipped a beat. You knew exactly what he was referring to, but you had to be careful. “What do you mean?”

Your father’s expression darkened, his voice dropping to a grave tone. “A creature. A beast that’s been haunting these woods for as long as anyone can remember. It’s not natural, not of this world. The men in the village have seen it, caught glimpses of it moving between the trees, and heard its growls in the dead of night. It has killed before, and it will kill again if we’re not careful.”

A cold chill ran down your spine. You knew the creature he spoke of—Eddie. But the thought of the villagers hunting him filled you with dread. They didn’t understand what he truly was, or the suffering he had endured. They only saw a monster, not the tortured soul hidden beneath the mask.

“You’re wrong,” you said, your voice trembling with emotion. “He’s not a monster. He’s… he’s something else, something that doesn’t deserve to be hunted.”

Your father’s eyes widened in shock and fury. “You’ve seen it, haven’t you?” His voice was low and dangerous. “You’ve seen this creature, and yet you still defend it?!”

You swallowed hard, knowing you were treading on dangerous ground. But you couldn’t lie to him, not about this. “Yes, I’ve seen him. But he didn’t harm me. He could have, but he didn’t.”

Your father’s face contorted with rage, his voice rising to a shout. “You foolish girl! Do you think that means anything? It’s a beast, an abomination! It’s toying with you, waiting for the right moment to strike. You’ve been lucky so far, but that luck will run out.”

You shook your head, tears stinging your eyes. “You don’t know him like I do. He’s not what you think—”

Your father slammed his fist against the doorframe, cutting you off. “I don’t want to hear another word about it! You’re not going back into those woods, do you understand? If I catch you setting foot outside this village again, I’ll lock you in your room until you come to your senses.”

Your breath caught in your throat, your heart pounding with fear and anger. “You can’t keep me locked up like a prisoner! I’m not a child, and I won’t be treated like one!”

“You’ll do as you’re told!” your father roared, his voice echoing through the night. “This isn’t about you. It’s about the safety of the village, the safety of your family. That thing out there is a threat to all of us, and I won’t have my daughter playing games with it.”

You stood your ground, your voice shaking with emotion. “I’m not playing games. I’m trying to understand. There’s more to this than you know, more than any of us know.”

Your father’s expression hardened, his voice cold and resolute. “The men are gathering tonight. We’re going to track this creature down and to put an end to this once and for all. If you care for your life, and the lives of everyone in this village, you’ll stay far away from those woods. Do you understand?”

Your heart sank, a deep sense of dread settling in your chest. You knew there was no reasoning with him, not now, not when he was so convinced that Eddie was a threat. But you couldn’t just stand by and do nothing. You couldn’t let them hunt him, couldn’t let them destroy the only connection you had ever felt to something beyond the mundane life of the village.

Tears welled up in your eyes, but you refused to let them fall. “You don’t have to do this,” you whispered, your voice cracking. “He’s not the enemy.”

But your father remained unmoved, his expression as cold and unyielding as stone. “Go inside, and pray that we can rid this village of that monster before it’s too late.”

With that, he turned away, leaving you standing alone in the gathering darkness, your heart heavy with fear and sorrow. You knew what you had to do, even if it meant defying your father, even if it meant risking everything.

You had to warn Eddie.

I can empathize with being disappointed that your favs are losing, I do. So you want to know why Garrus has so much support? Are you wondering where the propaganda is? I'll give it to you.

Let's set aside the fact that the Mass Effect series is in itself a highly influential piece of sci fi that has been around for 15 years and has a greater hold on pop culture than most games. And let's honestly set aside sexual orientation - if being bi automatically makes you more dateable, then that should have been in the rules - because we often choose our genders in games, and a dateable character will make you want to play as another gender just to be with them (e.g. the only time I ever played male in Dragon Age Inquisition was because I fucking love Cassandra so much, istg).

So, Garrus. Yeah, he's a former cop, one who watched criminals get away with murder or worse, often because they could grease the right palms - the guy he asks you to help him find was a geneticist using human test subjects to grow organs and sell them illegally, who used hostages to stop the authorities from firing on him. You don't have to agree about how he wants to handle it, but damn, it's hard not to feel for someone sick of injustice and watching good people get hurt.

After your character dies (don't worry, you get better), he is disillusioned with the entire system and runs away to a place on the edge of the universe where crime and corruption runs rampant. He makes the gangs' lives hell and saves innocent peoples' lives until his team is killed, and when you find him, he's cornered by the gangs and ready to lose all hope. He literally takes a rocket to the face and is permanently disfigured for the rest of the series. He eventually asks you to help him find the man responsible for his team's demise, themself a member of his team that sold them out. And you know what? You can let the guy go and convince Garrus to end his need for revenge, because he respects you so damn much that he will question such things because you ask it of him.

In the third game, when the galaxy is on the verge of annihilation, and when his planet is under attack and he doesn't even know if his family members are alive, he will still join you and stand by your side because he has so much faith that YOU are capable of saving the galaxy, and he's willing to bet the lives of his family and all of his species on YOU. And he does this whether you are romanced or not.

So we have a disabled, traumatised veteran who is willing to question his values for someone he respects, who literally believes you are capable of saving the galaxy and will protect your back while you do it. He befriends someone from a species his people severely warred with, he will callibrate the shit out of your guns so you never lose a firefight, and for an alien, he dances a mean tango.

This is why we love Garrus Vakarian.

Scorn and the Saint-Maker - new chapter

(A murder mystery/romance/who-turned-them-human Good Omens fanfic, set at a university in Scotland, with lots of smut and one trans angel)

Chapter 4: In my tangled state of mind

Chapter summary: The Mathematics department tries to cope with the loss of their colleague. Fell gets unsolicited relationship advice and Crowley gets an unwanted check-in.

This chapter introduces another few side characters and extras as well as Crowley’s sister, who you might recognise, and Fell’s best friend, who you won’t.

Excerpt:

“Is he straight? Married? A religious fundie?” She took a drink of lemonade. “A fan of Joanne’s?” Fell flapped his hand at her. “No, no, none of that. He’s rather equal-opportunity with his disdain, I should think.” Lily almost spat out her second mouthful. “Equal-opportunity with his disdain!” She blotted at her chin with a tissue. “Yes! Call him the King of Scorn. He’s incredibly rude!” “He must look amazing.” Fell snorted. “Lily.” Then he grimaced. “Maybe,” he muttered.

(Fell is all of us in the above interaction, istg I'd fall like Icarus too in his shoes)

AFTER SCHOOL LESSONS FOR UNRIPE APPLES APPRECIATION POST

JUST GOT UP TO DATE WITH AFTER SCHOOL LESSONS FOR UNRIPE APPLES (CH. 135 with ad-watching fast passes on webtoon) AND OH MY GOD HSJAFHJSDHFKHSDFJKHADKSBCWE

Usually Cheol reacts to things Mi-ae does (which, by right, should make him blush (in a typical romance story)) in a shocked, appalled, or downright disgusted manner. BUTTTTTTT the more we see Cheol's pov (esp in those small moments by himself), the more we can tell just how much he likes Mi-ae (more than as a friend) (small smiles, etc) and just how unaware he actually is of this HJKDHFLJKSHDJKFH He's Mi-ae protector #1 and such a refreshing, trustable character

And Jisu is such a likeable character too ISTG HSKDJAFHJKSLHLJH like HUHDOF:EWIBCMNBEIW he's Mi-ae protector #2 and can be there for her when Cheol can't TuTTTTTT.... He's such a silly man

All the class S students are so loveable, and they're like a big big family T-T All their interactions are so heartwarming AEAEEAEAEEAEAEEAEAEEAEAEEE the academy is like Mi-ae's special home jfsdhfksdhflk

And Mi-ae herself, she's so cute and such a perfectly imperfect protagonist – while she's optimistic, bubbly and energetic, sometimes what people say actually bothers her, she has insecurites, and she's gets worried about Cheol even if it's at her own expense... That''s what makes her so realistic and endearing AAAAAAAAAAAA

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH AAAAEAEAEAEEEE

Unripe apples is so refreshingly enjoyable, it's so wholesome and funny and cute and oh my god. I first heard of it from one of Coax Illust's videos, where he drew a character based on instructions from a viewer and had to guess who it was (it was mi-ae), and I never thought I would go and read it until a few days back. Every panel feels like biting into a green apple. You'd have to read it to understand. It's almost as if you're there, sitting in the alley next to Mi-ae and Cheol's houses, staring at the airplanes in the sky beneath the streetlights; it's almost as if you're there, in the soft field of grass in the countryside, an elementary schooler once again; it's almost as if you're there, by the side of your caring, warm-hearted friends, relishing in your youth.

Reading unripe apples makes me want friendships like them, fun like them, and such an exciting school life T-T Someone tell me where can I get those

[acourtofthought]

if it weren't for one of the Valkyries being a possible love interest for Azriel we wouldn't have seen this much hate toward them istg... or maybe even worse bc they're women.

Saying that it's unrealistic to win a blood rite when you only had trained for 9 months while reading a fantasy book- wait scratch that A ROMANTASY is crazy imo. Like honey none of this is real, faes are. not. real. and on top of that the main plot is about the romance, the books are not here to give you logic!! How this is unrealistic while Feyre a 19 years old human girl killed a fkn giant wyrm with some piece of bones and mud is completely normal to you but you go around and say its unrealistic for Valkyries win the blood rite?

Or how they call the Valkyries goofing around with the house, childish and unlikeable while half centuries warriors having snowball fight is not childish or cringe?

I mean this is what happens when they only read the books for e/riel scenes while is none existence in acosf... they should enjoy them while they can cuz they're not gonna happen anymore. Watch something like this happens with CC3 bc they're only reading it for a none canon ship and when they get disappointed they blame it on writing and sjm...

(ps: I love both Bat Boys and Valkyries silliness and I believe in my high lady and the first Valkyries in centuries🫡)

I agree that there wouldn't be quite so much negativity towards certain characters if Gwyn were not set up to be an Az love interest. And you're right, there is a lot said about the Valkyrie's friendship and their accomplishments as a result.

The only thing I will say is that there's maybe a few valid points being made and I'll get to them in a second, though the problem is their agenda against Gwyn makes their arguments look more petty than coming from a place of interest in actual debate.

This is a fantasy book and wild and crazy things happen so them winning the Rite should be entirely plausible for that reason alone.

I think the problems come in when you look at the history of the Rite. Illyrian boys, at about 11 years old, are taken away from their family's for years and years to be trained all day in an extremely grueling and sometime violent manner.

I've seen some say that the girls were able to make it through the Rite because they had Cassian's training but he is the general of the Illyrian army's. If his training methods made it possible so that three adult females with absolutely no training prior (no exercise prior), can spend a few months training while still running a business (Emerie), working in the library (Gwyn and Nesta), in an encouraging environment rather than a punishing one, and become elite warriors in exactly the same way Rhys, Cassian, and Az did then why is that same kind of training not being pushed for in Devlin's camp rather than taking young boys from their homes? And if the moral of the story is that "friendship" is what got them through, then why aren't Rhys (the HL of the NC) or Cassian (the general) demanding that Devlin make changes to the training program to encourage more comradery and teamwork? Isn't it in their best interest to train the best warriors to protect their lands? Training them in what is clearly the most efficient way?

I've also seen some say Briallyn fixed it so Nesta won which is what made this Rite different from the bat boys but does that then make their win a true win if there was manipulation involved? I think the overall message is an amazing one while the execution left something to be desired as that particular storyline raised a lot of valid questions.

I don't begrudge the Valkyries their win at all, I think they are a fantastic addition to the series but I can see how it does seem a bit backwards, knowing that a few select adult females were taken under Cassian and Az's wings while allowing the children of their court to be forced at such a young age to train and placed under the care of Devlin who seems like an asshole.

With that said, maybe this will be SJM bringing about a new era and changes will be made to the Illyrian training program as a result. Maybe Devlin will be taken out and Az or Cassian will be put in charge of training the male Illyrians (which I think would make a great storyline for Az) while Nesta, Gwyn and Emerie train the females.

Hi vamps hii!! Uhhmmm I wanted to ask for a fanfic💪💪🧐🧐 like one where reader (she/her) is in mcr too and she starts to feel dizzy on stage and she passes out and has to go to the hospital and Frank and gerard lay on each side of her while she wakes up and doesn’t know what happened Tysm you don’t have to tho😭 I love your post sm istg!!!!

Gerard way x reader

Genre: fluff

Word count: 1,082

Warnings: hospitals, blood (not graphic), injuries

Its 2002 and you are the drummer of the little band My Chemical Romance.

You are secretly dating Gerard and the rest of the band just thinks you and gerard are just good friends (since you’ve know him since like 9th grade)

Its 7:34am and you just woke up. Ray is making some coffee.

“Hey (Y/N), you ready for tonight’s concert?” Ray asks you.

“Yes!! I’m pumped!” You laugh.

“Sweet!” Ray says.

“I’m gonna go change out of these pajamas.” You say.

“Ok!” Ray says.

You walk into the backroom with the beds and stuff and open a drawer and grab jeans, black hoodie, and a korn shirt.

You look over and see gerard sleeping his bunk.

You walk over to him and rub his back. “Gee.. wake up.” You say softly.

He groans and wakes up. “Huh..?”

“Wake up gee.” You say.

“Oh, morning.” Gerard says, smiling at you.

“Come here.. i wanna cuddle you..” gerard says.

“Shh!! Remember we can’t let them know we are.. you know.. also ray is in the next room.” You whisper.

He groans. “Fine..”

Frank walk out of the bathroom. “Oh morning (Y/N).” Frank says.

You jump. “Oh! Hey.”

“What did i scare you?” frank smiles smugly.

“A little..” you roll your eyes.

“I should get changed.” You walk away from them.

You go in the bathroom and change.

~

It’s around 11:36am.

“Hey what should we get to eat?” Mikey says.

“Hmm.. i don’t know.” Gerard says.

“I saw a diner down the street, we should go there.” You say.

~

You guys get to the diner and walk in.

“Ahh, it’s warm in here.” Frank says.

You giggle.

“Fuck.. i hate Jersey winters.” Mikey says.

~

You guys are eating lunch in no time.

Gerard touches your shoe with his on purpose.

You glance at him wide eyed pissed a little.

Gerard just smirks and goes back to eating his food.

~

It’s about 5:36pm and you guys are driving to the venue to set up.

You guys park and hop out of the van.

“Lets unload this bitch!” Frank yells.

You giggle.

~

about a hour later you guys finish unloading and setting stuff up.

You start testing out your drums.

“Yo, (Y/N)! You gotta get your makeup on!!” Gerard yells.

“Oh shit! Right!!” You hop off your drum seat and run to the dressing room.

“Thanks for telling me, Gee..” you say out of breath.

“No problem.” Gerard says.

~

You guys start it off with Gee just speaking.

“Hi guys! We’re My Chemical Romance from New Jersey! I’m so excited playing with you guys!” Gerard says. “Alright! Lets start with our first song..”

You guys start with our lady of sorrows.

~

Its gotten up to song the last song on the record.

You look over and see frank rolling on the floor and jumping. You snort.

You focus on playing the drums. Until frank jumps and crashes into you. You hit your head pretty hard.

The only thing you hear before you pass out is “OH SHIT- (Y/N)!” From Gerard.

~

You wake up in a unfamiliar place.

“Gee! She’s awake!” You hear a voice that sounded like Frank’s say.

“Wha..?” You open your eyes and see Gerard.

“Hey.. how are you feeling (Y/N)..?” Gerard says softly.

“I-i’m fine.. wha.. what happened..?” You look over to a guilty frank.

“I- i jumped into you.. i’m so sorry (Y/N).” Frank says.

“Wheres Mikey and Ray..?” You ask Gerard.

“They are in the waiting room.. Mikey almost puked seeing you bleed everywhere.” Gerard giggles.

You giggle.

“How long have i been out?” You ask.

“Oh.. like.. 2 hours? Yeah 2.” Gerard says.

“Really! Oh my god!” You say.

Frank giggles.

“Also we got a hotel! So we can sleep comfortably and you don’t have to complain to be about your back hurting from the bunks!” Gerard says.

You laugh. “They do hurt my back!! I feel elderly when i wake up!” You say.

“Elderly?” Frank laughs.

“Yes! Like my back feels the same as your grandma’s!” You laugh.

The nurse walks in. “Hey you two- oh your awake (Y/N)! Yeah you just have a slight concussion but your fine if your going home with anyone.” She says.

“Oh i’m going to a hotel with those 4. We are touring around here so.” You say.

“Ah okay.” She says. “You’ll be free to leave let me just take out this stuff out of your arm..”

She takes the IVs out of your arm and you tense up from the pain.

“Alright! Your set!” She says.

You get up wobbling a little. Frank helps you stand up.

“You good?” Frank asks.

“Yeah.” You say.

You guys walk out to the waiting room to grab Mikey and Ray.

“Hey! She’s ready to go!” Gerard says.

“Oh hey (Y/N)! Are you okay..?” Ray says.

Mikey is sleeping on ray’s shoulder. He rubs his head to wake him up.

“Huh..?” Mikey mumbles.

“It’s time to go Mikey. (Y/N) is okay.” Ray whispers to mikey.

“Okay..” mikey puts on his glasses and gets up.

You guys leave the hospital and get in the van.

You lay your head on Gee’s shoulder and fall asleep.

~

“Hey.. (Y/N) we’re here at the hotel.” Gerard says.

“Okay..” you say.

You guys get out of the car and walk into the hotel.

“Hello!” Ray says to the lady at the table.

“Hello.” She says.

“I booked 6 rooms for us. Its under the name Ray.” Ray says.

“Okay..” the lady starts typing. “Yeah.. we only have 5 rooms open..” she says.

“Oh.” Ray says.

“That will be fine!” Ray says.

“So sorry that happened we got over booked a little..” she says.

“It’s fine..” Ray says. “Okay so.. we gotta share rooms by 2 people.. got it?”

You guys nod.

“Okay.. I’ll stay with Ray.” Mikey says.

“I’ll stay with Gee.” You say.

“I’ll stay with the tour manager.” Frank says.

“Sweet. Heres your guys’ cards.” Ray hands you guys’ the key cards.

You and Gerard get on the elevator to go to your guys’ room.

“Okay heres our room, Gee.” You say.

“Kay..” he says.

You unlock the room and walk in.

Gerard drops his bags and flops on the bed.

“C’mere..” Gerard puts out his arms.

“Hold on..” you say.

You undress from your bloody-ish clothes.

You climb into bed with Gerard and cuddle up to him.

“I love you (Y/N)..” Gerard Says.

“Love you too..” you say.

[bohemian-nights]

The way Rhaenyra stans boast about criticising other female characters (Alicent) for making bad decisions but when it’s their feminist girlboss icon Rhaenyra they’re silent 🔇

I swear their only argument is “Rhaenyra was born to rule” okay idc she and Aegon still suck ass as rulers. I would prefer for another woman later in the bloodline to be the first female heir instead of her.

“She’s giving woman rights 🥺” no she’s giving HERSELF rights. I swear if you’d got raped by one of her lovers she’d only get upset at the fact that he desired u.

“Alicent made her hand over the babe after she gave birth 🥺” I truly don’t give a fuck about how Rhaenyra made herself look extra weak in court to make Alicent (who I dislike as well) look bad

“Her sons were being bullied by Aemond 🥺” well maybe miss maegor should teach them how to hold their own and being competent rulers instead of only empathising how they’re heirs. If brunette #1 would ever be ruler, he’d have to continue ruling on threats because of the rumours.

Besides, I have no problem to people thinking Rhaenicent could be. But istg let woman be foes for once. 2 women fighting and it’s immediately “they were secretly lovers longing from each other 🥺” NO. LET THEM HATE. LET THEM BE FOES AND LET THEM EXPRESS ANGER. Not every feud between women has to be a secret la di da romance fuck the patriarchy moment 🤗

Anyways Baela will never end up with weak boy 1 she’s too much for him to handle 😍

And Olivia Cooke needs to stop fabricating those head-canons of her as canon stuff. She has her own opinion about the characters, that’s alright, but her little girl crush on Emma D’arcy shouldn’t reflect on the characters cause now we got dumbass fans thinking the actor’s and actresses’ words are law. I don’t need her white woman london feminism mingling into the already disaster that is HOTD.

That being said, only praises to Baela, Rhaena, Aemond (He’s villainy but he’s dutiful and I like that), Helaena, Daeron, and Sara Snow. Fuck everyone that degrades Sara Snow for Jacela or whatever people call that sinking ship

You aren’t wrong. The only thing I have to say is that that a lot of stuff said by these people is said as a deflection because they stan a sh*tty character and have said some pretty deplorable things in her defense.

Case in point, they stan Jacela(no one wants Jace so they don’t care about Baela being with him) solely to deflect from the fact that they think it’s disgusting for Daemon to want Nettles when their white blonde self-insert is right there.

They hate on Aemond because he’s what they wish the strong boys were(look at all the Team Black fanfics where he switches sides and gets with their OC-created self-insert).

They attack Alicent and try to say she’s a racist religious freak who hates other women even though Missy Anne is the one who actively tried to kill a Black girl for the crime of sleeping with her husband.

In regard to Rancid, I think Olivia (and Emma) are being fed by the showrunners to play into it. At this point, it’s more than obvious that their characters' relationship is the central love story in this show. It’s silly and it makes zero sense past episode 8, but it’s unfortunately Ryan Condal's vision(this man is just 🫠).

I'm going through my 2014 Sims 4 hyperfixation and all of the default cas Sims have lore and like half of them are married to someone but all of them have their maiden name (which is great for my lore head. Ts4 has given me so many maiden names for Sims that would have never had any) but it makes me think about who would have each last name.

Babs L'Amour+Ollie Purdue = L'Amour-Purdue

Amber Stein+Armand Diaggrio= Stein

June Kay+Steve Fogel = Fogel.

It is so hard to think tho cause these are such important Sims in the series. They're legit on every promotion from early development.

Also babs and Ollie canonically have 3 kids, but they're also canonically a baby and 2 kids. But this was before toddlers so in my head they're younger (child toddler and infant) but it goes against the lore and one of the things that makes me the most pissed is when people disobey the minute amount of lore we have in the Sims 4. Like stop. I need advice.

Like her kids are also objectively ugly and should be ignored I can also identify where they live and I objectively don't like it so I'm breaking more lore and I genuinely don't know what to do

The Sims 4 is my fnaf lore istg. These damn kids don't even have names. (I've named them male female and baby.) also their kids can't happen in the Sims 4 because Ollie would never have that white ahh baby and Babs canonically would never cheat on him. She saw him and her heart melted instantly and he convinced her to follow her dreams and she wrote romance novels about them.

um my brain retained none of that information except for white baby like nooo whilte baby you cant be saying that anyways one of (if not) the most confusing things in fnaf is the security logbook, specifically the foxy grid where people theorized it would reveal the crying childs name. previously people got the name evan out of it but the method was kinda all over the place but for a while its all we really had. until about a week ago when someone got evad out of the foxy grid instead of evan. at first glance it seems like a dead end but throughout the book it tells you to reflect a lot and theres a picture of a mirror and when you reflect evad you get dave! and it actually means a lot because william afton used dave as an alias to do his evil murder shit. like the narrative satisfaction of him using his dead sons name to try and "put him back together" just seems so "bittersweet fitting" to reference one of scraptraps lines in fnaf 6

We Best Love: Episode 2, "Why are we here, just to suffer?"

ON THE PREVIOUS FIRST EPISODE:

Well, damn, now I have no idea what'll happen next. I usually expect something like this to happen near the end of any romance, but they just went and did it.

Will they reach the second base in this episode, then? Who knows.

They already kissed, now we just wait for that sweet tension.

I swear, the more I watch this intro the more gay it looks. Like, I can feel the tension in the air.

Meanwhile, Shi De is a hopeless romantic, he can't be more obvious with that monologue. Like, it's impossible.

He keeps saying things like "look at me" as if that isn't the gayest thing to ever say in any fictional show when you refer to another guy.

[EAW: Now I know what this reminded me of. Warning: kinda MHA spoilery but w/o context , @bossman ]

Idk which one is gayer, I'll be honest

Shi De, you're the one that kissed him underwater OUT OF NOWHERE. Are you really in the position of asking that?

"What's wrong with you? Why did you kiss me?" TELL HIM, SHU YI!

He says that Shu Yi wasn't coming up. Boy, that's the lamest excuse I've heard. Please just follow Bruno Mars advice and say this instead.

Now he's asking about Yu Xin, like he's tired of Shu Yi pining after her for so long (the jealousy, guys... Alexa, play Heather). But Shu Yi is all "you stalkin' me?".

I know he asked that as a joke.

THAT WAS A RETHORICAL QUESTION, BUT SHI DE SAID GO BIG OR GO HOME!

Is Shu Yi fucking serious?

"So you can defeat me". Sweetie, that's not-

Not the reaction I expected. Like, I used to watch Ladybug but this guy's too much. How is he somehow more oblivious than Adrien? Is barely episode two. Lord, please don't tell me it gets worse. I'll need ice cream if he starts acting more dense than he already is.

Anyways, Gao Shi De tries to comfort him but Shu Yi tells him to get lost and our boy obeys.

He went back into the water, istg...

I can only picture Linkin Park in the backhead of his mind playing very loudly. My son is in his sad arc.

He's being very dramatic and thinking "boy, I need to get over it".

Well, he actually says a lot more, trying to be deep and all that, but I was very distracted by his dramatic self.

Tho he's right that it's worse when the unrequited love is a friendship. Little does he know, for Gao Shi De the unrequited love is hitting hard.

Oh no

He seems into it

Well, idk what'll happen next, but whatever it is, please don't let this pretty lady be a rebound, what you need is to dwell in your own feelings, even if it doesn't feel right at the moment, because it's better to learn how to live with those emotions and then manage them, that way you will be mature enought to fall in love in a better- who am I kidding, his ass is not listening

Fang Zheng Wen tries to talk to him, but then Yu Xin appears and invites them for lunch, but Shu Yi says he "doesn't wanna be a third wheel".

I feel you, man. You don't have to force yourself to be in that uncomfortable situation.

HERE COMES THE BOY TO THE RESCUE

It's a green flag if someone notices what you're trying to say without saying it. He was uncomfortable and at least someone not only noticed but also did SOMETHING about it.

Like, no hate to Zheng Wen but it's obvious the atmosphere is not pleasant for your friend, you should say or do something.

Speaking of being proactive, Shi De went and showed him a recording of him at the pool, in a low moment as we know he got a taste of that unrequited love.

Shu Yi is again asking the right questions ("why do you follow me all the time", "what do you want") that would give him a clear answer if he wasn't so dense.

The nerve of this guy. He's blackmailing him with the video.

"You have to be on-call and obey me." Sounds fruity, LET'S GO!

Modern marriage proposal, they call it.

So the only way to break this deal off is for Shu Yi to beat him, anything counts. Shi De tells him that and Shu Yi looks excited.

"I'll beat you hard" This isn't getting less gayer by the second.

"Tomorrow in my house" I'll count those as dates.

Skip to the next morning and now they're arguing over going on a car or a MRT.

Bro is blackmailing him with the video again, so they end up being late and Shu Yi pretends to be mad about it.

You are not beating the stalker allegations.

"You have it so you can put pranks on me?" Why are we here, just to suffer?

While Shu Yi keeps being his oblivious self, Shi De invites him for breakfast.

Class is boring and Shu Yi falls asleep on his shoulders, so adorable.

Still, you'll have to lend him your notes, man.

Classmate over there is telling Shi De to wake him up and our boy refuses. Let him have this moment, dude.

"But he's not even from this departam-" "Shut up"

After class, Shu Yi suddendly wants to have lunch.

Oh

Well, Yu Xin is there and Gao Shi De can tell that his boy is not feeling good.

So now both of them are hiding, but

"How long do you have to hide from her?" He's not wrong

Obviously is gonna be awkward but is better to do it sooner rather than latter or it'll be worse and he'll end up losing his friends without wanting to.

And Shu Yi knows this, but he says it still hurts. And that's totally reasonable

But then "if she finds out, we can't be friends anymore"

No, man. If you can get pass that, you'll just have an even stronger friendship. If not, she at least will know it and will try to explain how you're still important to her, even if her love isn't the same as the love you say you feel. The only thing actually puting your friendship in danger is the dreaded miscommunication.

"Why do I tell you this" Cause he's your future husband

And, of course, because is nice to say things. Bottling up your feelings will only hurt you more on the long run, you need to face them head on.

Gao Shi De agrees with me, a total w

"You can't just put [love] back into the shelf"

Then he says Shi De wouldn't understand. Boy do I have news for you...

Shi De says he DOES know and Shu Yi is curious

This is too much. This is Wei Ying levels of oblivious.

Shu Yi, stop ruining my ship, you're part of it.

Shi De's classmate keeps looking at him like that meme of someone pointing with their eyebrow raised and a big rainbow at the side.

Wait, I had an idea

Sorry, I had to

Sharing a meal is fruity activity, says science (at this point it's just me thinking these are dates, because if they're not, I'm even more curious about how a REAL date between these two would be).

Well, now the classmate, the same one from before, keeps butting in and acting as if this couple's existence is a personal offense.

But his dislike seems more inclined towards Shu Yi. [EAW: is this guy 🌈 too?]

Now our main couple and their closed ones (even tho the guy with no name may only be a classmate) are all in the same table, and this dude keeps making passive aggressive comments, but Shu Yi bro defends him and says that Zhou Shu Yi doesn't lose, not against Shi De, and if he did, it was on purpose.

Thanks for exposing him, man.

And guess who comes in

Welp, a lot has happened in just one meal, right?

Of course, Shu Yi leaves immediatly. And Shi De follows.

At an arcade, Shu Yi's friend is asking him why are they so close now? Is it another prank for Shi De?

No, my man, but you should ask Gao Shi De, at least he knows more about his own feelings.

Suddendly, and idea.

Did you really never think of this? Were you so caught up in trying to rile him up that you didn't actually do any basic competition? You really are something else.

Playing montage!

This is even funnier because for Gao Shi De, I bet he shares my mind and totally thinks of this as a date

Meanwhile, Shu Yi

"Your days are numbered, you little-"

Shu Yi does his litle finger gun at Shi De and I'm like don't worry, you already shot him, just look at how his eyes are hearts when he's with you.

Welp, we have a flustered Shi De.

It's obvious who keeps winning again and again. But in case it wasn't clear with episode 1, it's Shi De.

Shu Yi leaves, ready to be "tortured" again tomorrow, and Shi De is totally smug because he got what he wanted, at least. A nice time with future bf.

Cute aggression, they call it. Typical of future life partners.

Perfect opportunity to commit theft, says Shu Yi, but he's caught instantly.

Both begin to wrestle for the phone and for being caught and then somehow this happens.

The way I had to pause (the video and myself) after this. Gods, my mind is not pure and I'm going to hell.

Also, I snorted hella hard.

Yu Xin is me fr

I know it's basically the same scene, but this is just too perfect for a meme

Yu Xin apologizes saying "I thought you and Gao Shi De were together". Give them a few months. If it depends on Shi De, it could be weeks. If it's on Shu Yi's hand, maybe we'll need like three years at minimum.

It's usually "from their limited perspective, it can be seen as fruity" but man, from my non limited perpsective as someone who witnessed those moments, this is still fruity as f.

Yu Xin has the right energy but not the right idea and keeps insiting that Shu Yi confesses. Shi De gets tired of watching this uncomfortable circus and leaves with Shu Yi.

"Are they really not dating?" You both are his friends and know him well enough, I do not. And even I think this is very very rainbowish.

Well, Yu Xin, they are on a date so does this answer your question?

"Why do you add spicy if you can't take it?" "Cause you like it" This is a gem.

"I just know you too well" It's nice to know that at least from Shi De's perspective this is a rivalry more than an enemies relationship.

Shu Yi thanks him for getting him out of there, and says that Yu Xin and Zheng Wen are really compatible and make a perfect couple.

"What would you do if the one you love loves another person" says Shu Yi, having dealt with something similar to rejection but accepting it.

After eating they go out but Shu Yi starts feeling bad and Shi De takes him to a doctor.

"Try to separate them and take adantage of it" says Shi De and Shu Yi gulps hard. Try to run but you won't get far, kid.

So that was episode 2! Aside from the doctor being a bummer and not letting me and Shu Yi live (or well, die), it was fun. They're not even in an official relationship yet, but sure feels like it!

"If you want to die keep eating spicy hotpot" Hey doc, I'll die but I'll die happy, ok?

Shu Yi, man, like, besides the obvious hints through the whole episode, he literally kissed you. Like, how dense can you be?

And to @bitacrytic, oml, thanks a lot! Tumblr was being a b*tch and didn't let me answer your comment. And yeah, so far I'm invested. But also busy. I hope to finish the post for episode 3 sooner.

The most probable case is that I'll be uploading these blind reactions weekly, but only if I'm less busy those weeks. [Jokes on me, adult life is hard.]

Anygays, hope you enjoyed this. (I surely did.)
