yourusername welcome back to my postgame penalty box update show: quinn finally did me a solid edition!

the first notable thing to happen in this game occurred at 7:05 in the first period— ‼️QUINN GOT A TRIPPING PENALTY‼️the second picture shows him pouting, probably because he knew i was going to be elated over this and he hates to see me happy

AND THEN a flame (ruzicka) tripped petey, which created a 4 on 4 for 1 minute and 17 seconds. nobody scored on the 4 on 4, but guess who did once quinn got out on parole? PETEY! THAT'S WHO! and milsy assisted on it! oh yeah! and quinn did, too! (his 21st assist ;))

this has made quinn have the third most career assists for a defenseman in their first 300 games! did i forget to mention that this was his 300th game? because it was!

onto the second period! quinn got hit and he fell down and hronek tried to throw hands in his honor but neither him nor the flame (pospisil) really succeeded in that, but they both got two for roughing anyways (i’d call it aggressive hugging but whatever works i guess)

then quinny baby let some agression out and slashed coleman (a flame) after he was interfered with while facing him, knocking the stick out of his hands! that's my big brother! don't take that shit! they both got a penalty, quinn's being his second (i cheered) and we had ourselves a 3 on 3 that trickled into the third!

sadly, the universe only liked me a little bit. while i was elated by quinn getting two penalties, it was a hard nuck life tonight (get it?) and we lost 5-2 :(

anyways! congratulations on having played 300 nhl games, huggy buggy! i love you way past infinity🩵

Nothing New (TEASER)

Idol!Bts x Choreographer!Reader

Hurt/Comfort, ANGST, Eventual Fluff, Jealousy, and Insecurities

Release Date: TBA

A/N: Hi guys! This one has been in the works for a WHILE, I keep getting stuck in certain parts, but I'll be done soon! For now, here is the little preview I posted about like a week ago. I hope you enjoy! Kissies and huggies!

.

Finally, a long-awaited date with all of you. The boys were filled with energy, talking and joking on the ride there, and you felt your heart growing lighter: you still had them.

They even helped you get off the car with all the gentleness in the world, helped you get in your seat and made sure you were completely comfortable.

The lightness quickly weighed down into something much heavier when you saw Joanna walk in and make her way to the table.

And the weight felt like it had been dropped to you feet when the guys scooted to make space for her, Namjoon even standing up to hug her and letting her sit first so she'd be in between him and Jungkook.

How long has it been since they hugged you with such happiness?

"Oh my god, Y/N, hi! The boys didn't tell me you would be here."

Something about the way she said "the boys" made your hands itch, almost as much as your throat itched to say 'likewise'.

"Welp. I'm here. Haha."

Dinner wasn't fun, to say the least.

Joanna was blatantly saying shit to embarrass you the entire time, and it even worse, your boyfriends seemed to be soaking up her every word, laughing whenever she pointed out something embarrassing about you when she knew you in high school.

"Yeah! And when we choreographed together, she would always forget her parts." She lets out a giggle and Hoseok laughs too: what's so funny?

"It was only once or twice." You groan, mostly to yourself, but Joanna hears it.

"Whatever helps you sleep at night."

Everyone laughs at her words again and suddenly, you start to think that staying home was the better option.

"I've always said she has the memory of a goldfish. Sometimes it felt like I was doing all the work because i constantly had to step in and help when Y/N froze up."

She turns to you to ask her next question:

"How are you doing now that I haven't been here to clean up after you? Are you making Jimin do it?" She laughs and nudges Jimin, who's sitting next to her, on the shoulder, and he happily shoves back with a bright smile on her face.

"I'm fine, it's rare that I forget stuff lately." 

She gasps in a dramatic manner - you wish she would just disappear already.

"You? Not wasting time in rehearsal? Because you forgot? That's unheard of!"

You hate the way pretty much all of the guys laugh at her words: they know how much work you've put into being a good choreographer. Why were they laughing at you? 

Suddenly, you feel the person next to you pressing up closer against you: Seokjin.

You look at him and he has a soft smile on his face, but not towards Joanna; his entire focus is on you. 

"You have a really good memory darling. We can tell you've worked on it." The knot in your stomach softens its grip after hearing Seokjin's words, and for the first time since you got here, your smile is genuine.

"Anyways, how'd you injure yourself?"

"Oh, we were doing some cardio and I tripped. Fell at an awkward angle and it twisted my leg. Haha."

Joanna laughs a little too hard at this.

"I've always also said that for a supposed dancer you sure are clumsy as hell."

Some of the guys giggle at her comment, and you look down at your lap: why were they laughing at you? 

Out of the corner of your eye, you see Seokjin sit up a little straighter, and you suspect he's gonna say something.

"Supposed dancer?" He raised a brow and to most people, it would've seemed like he was just egging onto the joke, but you and the rest of the table could tell that there was a serious undertone to his question.

It was no secret in your relationship with the guys that Seokjin had a specific soft spot for you – in a relationship as big as yours, its bound that all of you will have your weak spots for one another: Jungkook and Namjoon, Jimin and Taehyung, Hoseok and Yoongi, you and Seokjin. 

So you were more than relieved when he met your gaze; he knew you were uncomfortable. 

And as everyone knows, he's not one to stay quiet. 

"I just mean it's surprising that for someone so clumsy she went into the professional world where coordination is crucial."

Jungkook uses this point to tease Namjoon, and thankfully the attention is taken off of you. You catch Seokjin's stare again and this time it's accompanied with an apologetic smile and him reaching out his hand to hold yours. 

As your hands meet on top of the table, you seem to be the only one who notices the look Joanna sends you at the display of affection.

Shifting into JJK Universe!

I had this crazy dream and decided to write it down but with a little twist sksksk 😃

Warning: none, fluff? Manga spoiler inside!

Masterlist

I got this crazy dream when I took a nap in the afternoon. I was doing my college assignments that I ignored for weeks. Tomorrow is the deadline so I literally speedrun my essay to prevent me from failing that class.

It was like 5 pm when I finally sent my essay via email to my professor, there's nothing special that time. But somehow the air feels a bit warmer and I can smell the subtle scent of wet grass because my windows are open. I can see the red sky outside where the sun is barely setting.

And something about it moved me. I pulled my chair closer to my window and sat there for a moment. I rested my chin on the windowsill as I enjoyed the light breeze of passing wind hit me gently.

Being a seventh semester student is tiring, I keep running here and there trying to keep everything together when it's clearly falling apart. I was too busy chasing after my diploma to see the world around me.

I forgot that the world can be so… beautiful.

A smile was curved on my face. It may look like a tired smile, but it feels blissful nonetheless. This simple moment is very precious, where I can breathe easily without worrying about my assignments and grades. I can just simply… breathe.

I wasn't tired, no. I have an even more heavy assignment before. This much doesn't tire me or maybe it's because I didn't realize just how tired I am? Perhaps that's why my eyelids feel so heavy right now.

I got a night class later… a light nap won't be a problem, right?

I'm not the type of person who dreams often. If I do, it would be an absurd type of dream, you know? Like the world is falling into a zombie outbreak and I'm the only human left. It usually ended with me running for my dear life with these left4dead zombies chasing for my ass.

Ugh, it was horrible. I don't wanna remember that dream again. Anyway the funny thing is, whenever I have these dreams I would always be able to access a side menu. Like an in-game menu where you can pause the world, resume the dream, skip the dream, or go back to the main menu a.k.a the real world. Of course, I was quick to choose to skip that dream— just to be chased by abnormal titans in another dream.

This time too, I was playing hide and seek with Huggy Wuggy from the Poppy Playtime game in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory (I know. It was a very wild dream). He found out where I hid, so I tried to run away but my body feels so heavy like time got slowed down but that thing— that blue furry monster walked so quickly towards me and was about to eat me.

I screamed but my voice also pitched down because I'm still stuck in the slow down mode. Thanks to my super quick reflexes, I was able to press the side menu and skip the dream/sarcastic.

So that's why now I'm stuck in this white space. I'm finally able to breathe freely and my movement becomes normal.

I was about to fall because of the sudden change in space, but luckily I was held by someone.

"Geez, that scared the hell out of me." The person who held me said, His voice is surprisingly familiar. "You appeared here out of nowhere and screamed like you're getting possessed." He had the audacity to laugh at my misery. I would be throwing hands and legs at him if only I wasn't so shocked at the current moment.

I let out a coughing fit because of the building tension earlier. My chest feels so tight, it's painful. The pain is very vivid, just like when someone punched you right on your chest. "Holy shit. Should have not watched that youtuber gameplay last night." I muttered between coughs.

"Hey, you're okay? You look a bit pale there." He pushed my chin with his thumb to see my face. I squinted my eyes shut, in fear that he had a disfigured face or something. I don't really think I can handle another jumpscare right now.

Sensing my fear, his voice got softer.

"It's okay. You're okay. Nothing is going to happen to you."

I clearly remember the owner of this voice. Is it really him? Can I open my eyes? What if it's not him? I can count the occasions where I fall for this kind of sweet trap in other dreams, it doesn't end well to say the least.

"I promise."

Oh, wow. He sounds very reliable. Why do I feel like crying?

"Aw, look at you." He ruffled my hair. "You're crying. You were that scared?" I can hear him chuckle lightly. "What kind of monster did you see to make you this scared, huh…" Maybe he took pity on my pathetic self, that's why he's pulling me closer to him.

A bump. Is this… his chest? For your information, yes it was hard. Also, boii, you're going to kill me right here.

"Now you're laughing. Aren't you a weird girl." He hummed, he sounded amused even. Figures, he must've never seen such a weirdo in his life.

But No, you don't understand mister. This is the most delightful dream I ever had in my life. Like for real? I don't wanna this to end.

Get a grip. I immediately slapped myself to stop my concerning train of thoughts. Geez, in all of the people I could have met, I have to embarrass myself in front of him.

Ah, now I wish to disappear.

"Quiet now, aren't we?" I can feel his hands trying to remove my hands that covered my face. "Come on, that's not fair. I let you cry on my chest earlier."

After a bit of pulling and tugging, I finally gave up. He's just that irresistible and also very stubborn.

"Now we're talking!" I opened my eyes and was met with his blue ones. "You're feeling better?"

"... Dear lord."

"Ah? Wah! Why are you falling all of a sudden?!"

"I must've saved a nation from a disaster in my previous life…" I was limp in his arms. My body gave up just like that, there's no ounce of power left. My knees shook like a jelly and my vision is getting blurry because of the rush of serotonin in my veins.

"What are you talking about?" He's enjoying this weird situation. He's pulling my noodle arms and twisting my body as if I'm a kind of a marionette. "You're really weird." He says but he's laughing at my pathetic state. Guess being a clown for my whole life can be advantageous sometimes.

"Thank you." He finally let me sit on the white ground. Currently breathing heavily and in denial.

"Hmmmmmmmm…." He leaned closer. I should've known this man doesn't know the concept of personal space. "I've never seen you before." He then clapped his hand in an excited manner. "Then how about introducing ourselves?"

".... Okay."

"Me first! I'm Gojo Satoru! I'm 28 years old and I'm a teacher!" He extended his hand and I accepted it hesitantly, because I was in awe at the size difference of our hands.

"... I'm Y/N…"

"... And?"

"... I'm 21 years old…"

"Uh-huh."

"And uh, I'm a college student."

"Ah, what semester are you in right now?"

"Seventh semester."

"I see, then you will be graduating soon!" He shook my hand vigorously and my whole body also shook following his movement. "Congrats!"

"I haven't graduated yet, why are you congratulating me?" I smiled.

"Because that means I will be the first to congratulate you!"

"Ah, that makes sense."

"So, you're not asking about what major I studied?" He asked with a wiggle on his eyebrows.

"Why should I?"

"Well because I'm a teacher. Isn't it natural to ask what major I studied?"

"Well, yeah." I nodded. "But then, a sorcerer doesn't have to go to college in order to be a Jujutsu teacher, right?"

He made a big surprised O. His expression is very cute, I can't hold back my laugh. "Are you a psychic?!"

"You can say that." I grinned.

"Oh, a sorcerer and a psychic. That would be a dope story." He smiled, his smile could light up the whole continent.

"I bet." I smiled back.

We spent like hours talking about various things. Mostly about our worlds, he's beyond surprised to hear that curses doesn't exist in my world.

"... That would be a perfect place to live." He told me in a rather solemn voice.

"Maybe."

He raised his eyebrows in question.

"Because in my world, some people have to live with something worse than a curse." I smiled bitterly at the thought. "You can say that we're cursed in one way or another."

"...True," he said. I thought he's a nosy person who invades others' personal space as he likes, but he doesn't push further after that.

"Hey, Gojo."

"What?"

"..." I'm hesitating to say this. I know that our time will be over soon and I don't know if I will be able to meet him again. But I always want to say this to him if I can. This is maybe just a dream, but my heart says otherwise— that's why I need to tell him this.

"... What are you going to say?"

"——————."

His eyes widened after hearing my words.

"Be careful." I told him with a sad smile. His surprised face somehow made me feeling hurt. "I don't want you to hurt even more."

Satoru woke up in a cold sweat.

"... Just a dream." It's supposed to be a dream. But why is his heart racing and filled with such uneasiness?

The words from the stranger in his dream keeps haunting his mind even with his hardest effort to forget it.

"Fuck." He bit his lips as the memory of his dream comes back again.

"Suguru Getou is alive but his body is taken over by Noritoshi Kamo."

recently been looking into poppy playtime (it’s…. ok) and its like. theres some good concepts in here and the designs are pretty good but i feel like the lore falls apart immediately if you look too closely at it and maybe im missing something since i havent actually played it (i watched markiplier play it and then dug through the internet for the rest of the information until i lost interest) but ok

i like the biological elements to the monsters - love something bleeding when it Should Not Have Blood. i really dont think you can fit that many organs in a little dinosaur toy though. the big ones sure but that one guy who got put in a toy size dinosaur? and why did they just leave him in with the other experiments if he was a staff person who Agreed to this

anyway my main question is What Is The Motive Here

- if they’re seeking immortality, that just. feels like a really bizarre plot for a toy company? unless the idea is that the toy company was a front for the real operation all along but if you’re really trying to make bodies for humans to inhabit why not focus on, y’know, humanoid things, rather than whatever the hell huggy wuggy is. nobody wants to be that guy forever. and the monster toys still can die anyway, so

- it seems more likely that the purpose was to build worker/slaves, productivity and marketing over ethics and employee well being (kind of an ironic message coming from a developer who puts so much emphasis on marketing and also, the whole NFT thing, but whatever) we know huggy is intended to be security and mommy is intended to be the host for the games, but if that’s the reason - is it really that beneficial to squish people into monster toys? they already have a foster care system providing them with children they’re using as test subjects. this company clearly doesn’t give a shit about ethics, so why not just take advantage of the child labor they have access to rather than spending ungodly amounts of time and money on all these testing procedures and mutilating children into toy slaves. extremely traumatized workers forced into fucked up toy bodies are not going to be as efficient. they can still be killed and still need to eat (evidently More than a child would normally anyway, ) so what exactly is the benefit here. and like. ok mommy has some clear advantages but huggy’s really floppy. we see kissy flop her noodly arm helplessly trying to pull one lever - as cute and funny as that moment was, its clear this creature would not be a great factory worker

- if the point is that they intend to sell the toy monsters, theres just no benefit there whatsoever, even if the ethics of shoving frightened orphans into toys doesn’t bother you, even if you do fix the extreme aggression problem, you’re still gonna get lawsuits from parents when their kids’ toys start wandering off and crying in the corner. also toys get broken, kids tear things open, modders take things apart, people are going to figure out real fast that there’s, y’know, organs in there

which brings me to my major question of WHY is there a commercial for poppy? it seems like the poppy we find in the case is The Only poppy, she’s the only experiment that worked properly, she’s the ideal “toy that can talk to you like a person! (because she is one)” but they’ve never been able to replicate that success - how were they able to sell these dolls with the promise of the Real Girl Intelligence if they only had one (which clearly wasn’t sold since she’s still there)? or did they film the commercial after their success intending to make more dolls and never released it when things went wrong? poppy’s on a lot of the advertisements and stuff so she seems to be a recognized character in the brand. did they at one time manage to recreate her and just sold a bunch of little orphan girls trapped in dolls? is that what I’m supposed to be taking from this?

this is so real

noooo :(

LOLLLLLL yes. its true. but also its important to note that every thief in the story is a major character

REAL I LOVE RAINBOW DASH dirk is so based for this. he is just like me

calliopes art is so good....idk who ACTUALLY drew it but i dont think it was hussie

this is so funny

THIS IS SO COOL

thats the image limit... things are getting interesting! slowly but surely. all of them are pretty chill thus far but i have a feeling that things are about to get bad.

[beckface]

What got you so invested into the Two-Brains aka Bojack Mouseman and Becky? And like what kinds of aus/stories/concepts do u have for them (is very aware of them all but still wants ro hear em)

ALRIGHT LETS DO THE THING

Okay first off I tend to get really hyperfixated on funny things that I can sandbox in, so wordgirl was bait for me ngl. Like it has so much potential for really messy, angsty bullshit I can explore while still being entertaining

My brain latched on to Becky because I love the idea of a kid's show main character canonically cramming lessons down other character's throats. It's so funny. Also she's really cute and sweet and acts like a lot of the little kids I work with

I also have a track record with being absolutely OBSESSED with like a broken/toxic mentorship trope, (see also Sunset Shimmer and Princess Celestia, Jinx and Silco, you get the picture) and when I was getting into this fandom and I re-learned the whole backstory behind Steven and people saying he was like her teacher and the whole deal with the Superhero's and You book I was done for.

Like dude this is exactly the kind of thing I LOVE and there was not enough content of it, so here I am, making my own needlessly overthought content. Also he's in a prime position to turn Becky to the dark side and I just, ksjdhflsjfk

RANDOM PERSONAL CONCEPTS I THINK ABOUT WITH THEM:

Becky does her best to not think about him because she's got debilitating "black and white" disease. She was taught to see good v evil and lives by that, but slowly as she gets older that worldview cracks, and she's forced to confront her own complicating emotions regarding him that she'd been suppressing for so long

Twobrains also does his best to not think about her AND the rest of his past life because parallels, but when he does get reminded of it all he feels an overwhelming and uncomfortable guilt. He hates that guilt more then whatever Squeaky will do to him, and kinda just passively allows Squeaky to shock him back into crime-brain

Twobrain's petty Jealousy he gets when Wordgirl is paying attention to other villains like in the episodes with Victoria and Steve Mcclean was there at first with Miss Power, but it was intensified because she positioned herself as a mentor. That jealousy quickly faded when he saw who Power truly was, because he trusted that WG would eventually come to her senses, it was just a matter of when.

Becky tells the henchmen to make DTB eat regular food sometimes on the downlow just so he doesn't shrivel up and die

Becky is 100% more athletic then Twobrains but he's better at specific skill-based sports and it drives her INSANE

Becky goes to him for help on random shit in exchange for cheese. She seems to suddenly go deaf when Huggy reminds her that she can ask literally ANYONE ELSE for help on this specific thing

Twobrains really really wants her to be impressed with his evil schemes. I know this one is canon but I needed to emphasize it

🥀...IDOL FRIENDS: SALEM

ミ★ 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘪 𝘠𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘫𝘶𝘯 ★彡

Technically older that Yeonjun and gets shit for it from Tomorrow x Together's members. MΔSK joins in as well. When Yeonjun and Salem get together, it's a mess. No one really knows what to do with their presence. There tends to be a lot of yelling and flirting. If you were unaware of who they were, you would think they were dating. Everyone feels like the third wheel when you're with them. They fight over the bill a lot. Like, twenty minutes before it arrives, they're fighting already. No one knows how they became friends. MΔSK just showed up at Inkigayo one day and they seemed to know each other.

ミ★ 𝘚𝘢𝘬𝘶𝘳𝘢 ★彡

A whole mess. This is what they are together. A mess. They can't really doing anything together without messing around with something a bit too much. They met behind stage at a concert and exchanged numbers. This is the most wholesome relationship Salem has. Salem and Sakura are the type of friends who can just not talks for a month and then resume right where they are. A whole caretaker x caretaker vibe. You know?

ミ★ 𝘉𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘯 ★彡

Met Bang Chan when Hae-won dragged all of MΔSK to meet Stray Kids, as one does. He immediately opened up to Chan, drawn to the warmth that the elder emitted. Bang Chan is where Salem goes when he's having trouble or need help. It's turned into and Older Brother, Younger Brother type bond. It's funny though because Salem's not a very huggy person and yet, he gets attacked with them whenever he's around Chris. Salem's the younger here, making him a lot more free, with the excuse that he doesn't have to be the mature one. (and let's be honest, when is he ever actually mature)

a/n: this was kind of short but that's okay...

[incorrect-poppy-playtime-quotes]

Huggy Wuggy, extremely tired: alright let's do this then! new alphabet! fuck the old alphabet! we just need 26 sounds that don't sound like anything else. so we can do like...squee and crum and-

Bunzo: Doug

Huggy Wuggy: and doug...and...bug...aw shit

Bunzo: FUCK

Bron: See? there's only so many sounds.

Huggy Wuggy: Nah I can make 26 sounds right now. even with half my brain.

Bron: Alright, I'll count.

Huggy Wuggy: So it can be like A, B, CUH...D-wow, it starts off with a lot of rhymes. B, C, D, E, all rhymes. So A, B, Cronk, DOUG, AaAAAaAAAaaAaawwwWWww, F...GUMPY!

Bunzo: No, it can't be 2 syllables!

Huggy Wuggy: We have W, so suck my ass. huff my duff.

Bunzo: Is that H?

Huggy Wuggy: Huff my duff is H

Bron, wheeze-laughing: Start over. start from the beginning.

Huggy Wuggy: A, B, Cronk, Doug, EEEEeEEeEEeEEyA...ffffNUH! GUMPY, HEYYYYY! I is good, J is good.

Bron: J's not good.

Bunzo: J sounds like A.

Huggy Wuggy: oh you're right...*whistles* you got the ol' whistle, do this alphabet.

Bunzo: Ok...

Bron: Start over.

Huggy Wuggy: ...God, A, B, Cronk, Doug, EEEEeEEeEEeEEyA, FNUH, GUMPY, HEEYYYYY! I...love you...dad...is I...I love you dad! you're right this is too hard. this is too much work.

Bron: But you're already 10 letters in!

Huggy Wuggy: alright, uh...Jesus? we'll just give him that letter...Cronk 2, and you would say it and a lot of people know it's the 2nd one.

Bron: The sequel

Huggy Wuggy: ...Li-L is good...M is good, but then N has to be evil M...Oh daddy, so you reference your dad in 2 of the letters of the alphabet, he's really gonna appreciate that...the military word for P is papa, so let's just continue the theme there, quebec I like...ARRRRRRR, a fun pirate joke, people like that...

Bron: Very good.

Huggy Wuggy: and then we can do...*hisses* T could just be *claps* you clap...U and W I think can stay...this stopped being funny

Bron: Go ahead and finish it though

Huggy Wuggy: Vape...W, Cross...

Dirk Strider, Jane Crocker

Act 6, page 4256-4259

timaeusTestified [TT] began bothering gutsyGumshoe [GG] at 12:01

TT: Why have you activated dear, sweet Huggy Bear.

TT: Are you in danger?

GG: Oh, no.

GG: I'm just trying to leave my house!

GG: Is this the real you, btw?

TT: Yeah, it's me.

TT: I disabled the AR for now.

GG: Ok. Just making sure!

GG: Jake was having some issues with it earlier, and I don't think he received its obfuscating tendencies in the humorous spirit intended.

TT: Yes, I'm catching up with the situation now.

GG: Oh, so you're talking to Jake then?

TT: Nah. Just reading their chat logs.

TT: Man, what the fuck?

TT: I can't leave these two alone for a minute. Can a guy get his ablutions on in fucking peace?

GG: :B

GG: Was it that bad?

TT: Not really.

TT: The responder doesn't much distort my position on things usually.

TT: Its demeanor leaves something desired though. I'd prefer it didn't make such aggressive and repeated claims of fidelity to my persona.

TT: Be misrepresentin' hells of key subtleties, yo.

GG: Why not just turn it off then?

TT: Keeps them both on their toes.

GG: Who?

TT: Jake and the responder.

TT: Jake needs to be more skeptical. Rather than take a Pollyanna jackknife ass-first off whatever turnip truck is blowing through town that day, he's got to apply more critical reasoning to shit.

TT: I keep telling him.

TT: I keep telling him, dude, you got to be more like Jane.

GG: These lectures I presume are roughly similar in complexion to those I'm familiar with?

GG: Those wherein I have, and I quote, "got to be more like Jake?"

TT: Yes, exactly.

TT: You're finally fucking getting it.

GG: I sincerely doubt that I am!

TT: Said the stubborn skeptic, skeptically.

GG: Let's not talk about my "issues" again, shalln't we?

TT: Shalln't?

TT: That ain't a thing to say, even for you.

GG: Shush!

GG: The word shalln't escape my vocabulary any longer, just as you SHALLN'T nitpick my language! That's my turf you're on, buster.

TT: Alright. Kinda don't care.

GG: What were you saying?

TT: About what? Jake?

GG: About leaving the responder on!

TT: Yeah.

TT: Anyway, I kind of owe it to him to let the program run as often as possible.

GG: Jake?

TT: No.

TT: The responder.

TT: It is a fully cognitive, self-aware entity I am responsible for, not even to mention an approximate cerebral duplicate of myself.

TT: You don't just make a clone of yourself to live in a dead end existence where it has no chance to thrive as an individual or surpass its limitations.

TT: That'd be sick.

GG: True.

TT: Also.

TT: The more the software runs, the broader and more detailed its experiential canopy becomes. Makes for a better dialogic partner.

GG: Dialogic?

GG: Are you saying you have conversations with your own auto-responder?

TT: Of course.

TT: Why do you think I made the thing?

GG: Hrm, that's interesting.

GG: I guess I always thought it was just a really elaborate gag!

TT: It's that too.

GG: Sometimes your sense of humor seems more impenetrably advanced than your robotics. I'll never understand this tapestry of irony you weave.

GG: Maybe I'm just stuck in the dark ages of pranksterism with my funny mustaches corny old joke book.

TT: Yes, you are. But that's fine.

TT: We come from different traditions. Someone needs to keep that racist southern asshole's legacy alive.

TT: There's dignity in taking up the work of our familial predecessors, even if what they did was insanely fucking stupid.

GG: Is that a note of bitterness directed at your superstar brother I am detecting?

TT: No way. He's awesome.

TT: I've told you, I don't begrudge any of his success.

TT: I've also told you he isn't my real bro even though I call him that. We're related through an esoteric process of genetic reamalgamation.

GG: Oh lordy. Yes, yes, I know. I don't need another ironic lesson in science fiction!

TT: Alright. My lessons are rad as fuck, but suit yourself.

TT: The point is, obviously his satirical methods have flaws, and whatever tempered brand of hero worship I might be practicing isn't keeping me from seeing that.

GG: Flaws?? Talk about understatement. Those movies are unwatchable.

GG: Unless your name is Jake English.

TT: Yes, spectacularly so. But they will have profound historical significance. Mark my words.

TT: And flaws aside, it's a legacy I'm proud to inherit. My duty isn't to appropriate his methods with absolute loyalty, but to apply reason and improve upon them. To leave my own mark.

TT: To perfect the art of irony.

TT: It's just like what you're doing with the work of your ancestor. You are striving to perfect his hokey vaudeville bullshit, or something.

TT: You seek the Zen of a pie to the face. The Tao of falling the fuck down.

GG: Ermm...

GG: If you say so!

GG: I dunno. Call me a simpleton, but I just like funny jokes.

TT: Can't fool me. You take your shit as serious as I do.

TT: And if I wasn't serious about it, I wouldn't have made you that rabbit. Then where the hell would you be?

GG: Well, aside from thousands of dollars in corpse-repair richer, I can't say.

TT: Has he been sleeping in the old man hollow again? Shit, that's adorable.

GG: I can think of cuter places for him to sleep, frankly!

TT: Yeah, bullshit.

TT: He's just being instinctive. In the wild, he would gut a carcass and sleep inside for warmth, as well as to secure tactical advantage for ambushing would-be scavengers.

GG: Oh, please.

GG: Anyway, property damage and desecration to cherished elders aside, Mr. Bear has been a lovely addition to the family.

TT: You haven't renamed him yet?

GG: Oh... no.

GG: I keep forgetting I'm supposed to!

TT: You've got to fucking rename him. Or change him to a girl if you want. That was important.

TT: When pets change owners they get new names. Fact.

GG: Sorry.

GG: I will name him right now!

GG: How about Lil' Sebastian?

TT: Fuck if that isn't the best name a thing could get.

GG: Yeah!!!

GG: So then, are you saying Mr. Sebastian here was an ironic present?

GG: Relayed strictly for guffaws?? >:B

TT: Yes, but it's not that simple. There were many layers involved.

TT: Some of them are literal layers, of metal and plush.

GG: Huh?

TT: There's a real stuffed rabbit beneath its exoskeleton.

GG: What! Really? :O

TT: Yeah.

TT: It belonged to my bro.

GG: I thought you said you didn't have such an heirloom to complete the plushie trifecta?

TT: I didn't. He didn't give it to me, and never intended to bequeath it.

TT: I stole it.

GG: Ooh. Risky!

TT: Nah. I got a little help from RL and ganked it out of his museum.

TT: It's this whole "priceless" collection of stupid shit from movies, defended like Fort Knox. Ironically of course.

GG: So it's from a movie?

TT: Ever hear of Con Air?

GG: Nope.

GG: Wait...

GG: Wasn't that some bit of action schlock from the 90's?

TT: Yes.

GG: Some of the silly nonsense referenced in his work was well before my time. I don't have the wherewithal to investigate all this minutia.

TT: Yeah, it doesn't matter really. But it was from that. Dude weirdly obsessed over that shit movie for years, among others.

TT: Know those signature shades you see him wearing on magazine covers and stuff? Another prop. A gift from Stiller himself, I believe.

GG: That does sound a tad obsessive. Wasn't he furious about your burglary?

TT: Pretty sure he didn't even notice. In years since, I never saw a news story about a "daring heist" or anything. I feel like he would have made some hay outta that.

TT: And if he did know, he'd probably just want to give me a stoic fist bump or something.

GG: Why didn't you mention this when you gave the gift? More irony?

TT: Essentially. It's not that easy to explain.

TT: Broadcasting the gesture would have made it seem tawdry, and would somewhat defray its humor value.

GG: I see. So it was like a private joke, and if anyone besides you was in on it, the joke would be ruined!

TT: Like I said, there are layers.

TT: On one level, I gave you a filthy tattered piece of shit, albeit of tremendous cultural significance, manhandled by some old B movie actors, now candy coated to function as a highly practical defender droid for your personal protection.

TT: On another level, I needed to incorporate something passable as a real heirloom.

TT: For sentimental reasons.

GG: D'awwwww.

GG: Wait, real sentiment, or ironic sentiment?

GG: Or is there no difference?? Am I missing the point here?

TT: No, it was genuine.

TT: The upper echelons of irony should always include measures of sincerity. And if the satirical practice is executed faithfully it will achieve something bona fide in its own right regardless.

TT: Through an intense commitment bordering on religious devotion to the absolutely inane, absurd, or plain fucking stupid, a very different kind of sincerity begins to materialize. One of reverence to the ridiculous. You begin to "mean it," but what exactly it is you mean is never quite what appears on the surface, and is utterly inaccessible to obtuse and literal minds. That you "mean it" then becomes inseparable from the joke, and additional rich strata of humor may be stripped aggressively from this irreconcilable truth.

GG: This is fascinating, if a wee bit more dissertation than I bargained for this morning.

GG: I have so much to learn. And I am not even saying that "ironically!"

GG: Will you teach me your ways one day, sir? Perhaps an apprenticeship will open?

TT: Oh god, I'd love that.

TT: Consider the position yours for the taking any time. Feel free to approach and kneel before Cal. With my sword and his floppy mitten, you will receive my flashstep anointment shoulder to shoulder, and to shoulder again.

GG: Tempting, but that rain check will have to stay unendorsed for now.

GG: Lil' Seb is beginning to act out, and I must put his fidgetiness to constructive use!

TT: Cool.

TT: Jane, one more thing.

TT: I'm sure you must be aware by now that you'll be the leader of our group, as you will be the first to enter the session.

GG: Um, no?

GG: This is news to me. I never gathered that "team leader" was a thing for this game.

TT: Trust me. It's a thing.

GG: Are you sure? I have my doubts.

GG: I believe as a group we will have the temerity to succeed, without my having to order people around like an insufferable bossypants.

TT: That's why you're our leader, Jane.

GG: Hm?

TT: Optimism through stalwart skepticism is an affect not everyone is plucky enough to be graced with.

GG: That's stupid!

TT: Yeah yeah. I know.

TT: You're not our leader, you're our FRIEND, right?

GG: Precisely!

GG: There is a BIG difference!

TT: And statements like that are also why you're our leader.

TT: But only in name and in spirit. Less so, functionally.

TT: If it puts your mind at ease, I'll be the one pulling the strings here.

GG: Oh yes?

GG: Then this whole affair will be one of D. Strider's grand productions in puppetry?

TT: I will be the unseen hand whose nimble digits are behind every subtle twitch in our session's bulbous foam ass.

TT: At least those gyrations not happening by the volition of its own quivering absorbant proboscis.

TT: If you ever need help, Jane. If you're ever in any trouble at all, let me know. Just say the word.

TT: I'll whip the toggle stick of this ludicrous marionette, cavorting its humongous bottom to intercept your freefall through the abyss.

TT: Snowcone you up in the fluffy crook of its cleft. Don't be alarmed if you're in no hurry to unpry yourself.

TT: For the great jut of this impudent rump has more yield to your touch than you ever dreamt. Remember to catch your breath as it cherishes the imprint of your hand like a memento from a lover gone to war.

TT: There's a lot of give to that ass, you may say.

TT: Might like to settle in. Make myself comfortable. Start a family.

TT: Bounce a coin off that ass, you'll demand of visitors. It's not going anywhere.

TT: Bet that coin'll take a good nap there.

TT: It's a gamble you win every goddamn time.

TT: Yeah.

GG: These lessons we talked about...

GG: They've already begun, haven't they? :o

TT: Jane, soon you'll believe what I've told you.

TT: You'll believe it all.

TT: It's just a shame that believing will take something so coarse as seeing, for a girl as sharp as you.

TT: Critical thought can lead one to accept the unlikely, just as much as dismiss the impossible.

TT: I can help with this too. Would you like me to program a Jane Crocker responder for you?

TT: I only require a simple captcha of your brain.

GG: Holy moly!

GG: Um, thank you, but no.

GG: I'm not ready to get dialogic with my cyberself just yet. My friends keep me busy enough as it is.

GG: Speaking of which, I really need to go. I know you love to talk my ear off, and it's always a treat, but let's catch up later after the game starts, ok?

GG: And if I do need your help, I promise I'll take you up on your offer!

TT: I made several. Which one?

GG: The one where you, hopefully not literally, offered to catch me in the crevice of a great big squishy butt! Hoo hoo hoo!

GG: Gtg!!! <3

gutsyGumshoe [GG] ceased bothering timaeusTestified [TT]

[gnocchighoul]

the undateables + a touch starved mc

Diavolo

This fucking guy abducted you and made you go to demon-college, the very least he can do is spare you some hugs.

Prince, Lord, Beefcake -- you don’t give a single flying damn about titles or customs. Much like a heat-seeking, pouch dwelling animal, all you care about is snuggles.

He’s Very surprised when you just waltz up to him one day at RAD and ask him for a hug. Seriously, nobody has the gall to do that.

Except for you, apparently. 

Needless to say, he is SO down. 

Diavolo is the prince of the Devildom and also of being touch-starved. Pretty much everyone is afraid of him, and Lucifer is a stingy meanie that wont give him hugs :(

He’s so excited that he doesn’t say anything, just picks you up and practically squeezes the life out of you. 

It’s wonderful and you decide that sacrificing your ability to breathe is well worth the payoff.

After you approach him a handful of times for hugs, he’s eventually just going to start hugging you on-sight. 

Like literally, on sight. If he catches a glimpse of you, he will cross the whole room just to give you a hug.

(think Moto Moto, he will trample anyone that gets in his way LMAOO i’m sorry dfghjk)

You can absolutely get him to give you a piggyback ride. Honestly, he’ll probably offer.

(There are definitely rumors that you two are dating. Some demons even think that you have a pact bond. The other RAD students are lowkey freaked out by you)

If you play your cards right, you can definitely spin this whole thing into an actual cuddle session :)

Barbatos

You’re always hugging him and he honestly thinks it's so cute.

At first, you’re very hesitant--slyly asking him to warm up your hands with his own, or let you rest your head on his shoulder, just for a minute!

You think you’re sneaky about it.

You’re absolutely not.

Finally, he tells you that whenever you want affection from him, you’re more than welcome to initiate. 

It’s not uncommon for you to hug him from behind and press your face into his back. 

You always ask, “is this okay?” and he always says “of course.” because it really, really is.

He’s honestly flattered that you seek him out for affection.

When you tell him that it's because he gives the Best hugs, he definitely blushes a little bit.  

His body temperature naturally runs cooler than most, which is a little bit strange, but at least you don't have to worry about overheating during snuggle time :D

He also likes to give you piggyback rides. Multitasking is something he often does, and if you’re chilling on his back like a baby possum, then his hands are still free to do other things as well. 

It’s very convenient. 

(Don’t get it twisted though, when he’s done with work for the day he’s so down to just chill and hold you. If you’ll let him, he especially likes to run his hands through your hair.)

Barb is Very intuitive. If you’re in need of some hugs, you don’t have to say anything. He just knows, and as long as you’ve given him consent, he’ll gladly wrap you up in his arms.

(Will also peck your cheek if you’re cool with it)

He’s just so polite and doting 

Simeon

Man… listen.

A hug from Simeon is equivalent to seeing the gates of Heaven open up.

He knows exactly how tight you need to be held, and because of that, his hugs are always warm and protective. 

Also, he likes to wrap his arms around your waist and rest his chin on your shoulder, which is just really fucking nice.

The vibes? Immaculate. 

As soon as you realize that he’s a heavenly hugger, he’s gonna have a hard time shaking you off. 

And you know what? He doesn’t really mind it. 

At first, he’s a little bit confused about why you’re so intent on cuddling him. Confused, but not averse to it in any way, mind you.

Then he’s actually a little bit sad when he realizes just exactly how touch starved you are, but, he understands. You make him realize that he is too--the demons are a lot less huggy than the angels are, surprisingly enough. 

So he thinks, maybe you two can help each other out :)

Funny enough, as long as you're okay with it, he lowkey jumps straight into acting like you two are a couple.

Wrapping an arm around your waist or shoulders in public, holding your hand, kissing your cheek…

If you’re uncomfortable with it though, he’ll definitely back off. He’s very very respectful of any boundaries you have.

Movie/cuddle night definitely becomes a thing for you guys.

Luke

Give this child hugs, please. And head pats. Pinch his little cheeks. Ruffle his hair. 

Be that doting overbearing parent-friend that smothers him with affection!! And snacks. Keep fruit snacks on hand for him fghjkdf

The first time you ruffle his hair, it’s because he’s just so darn cute, you can’t help it--he’s raving about the new cake recipe that he’s learning from Barbatos, and his eyes are shining bright as firebugs and he’s just so darn excited because he got it right on the first try and--

You’re just so proud of him!! So you ruffle his hair and he gets really embarrassed (he’s not a dog for you to pet!) 

But like. It felt really nice, so he Supposes that it’s okay. Just as long as it’s you. 

When you ask if you can hug him, he gets all blushy but is sooo excited because you honestly give really nice hugs

He won’t admit it, but he really appreciates how supportive you are of him. Though sometimes (like when you pinch his cheeks or monitor his screen-time) you’re a bit… how should I say,,,, a wee bit too much. 

Like Simeon.  

Give him a hug and pat his back when he’s upset and it’ll instantly make him feel better. 

(If he’s upset because one of the demon brothers was making fun of him and you give him a hug, seeing their jealous faces is definitely the icing on the cake for him lmaoo) 

Solomon

Ah, yes. The shady sorcerer. 

Solomon is an interesting case.

Lowkey, he acts kind of inhuman--but then again, even the demons and angels are more interested in cuddles than he is.

That’s not to say he isn’t at all--somewhere along the way, he just forgot that that’s a thing living creatures need. 

(Don’t get it twisted though--he has a pact with Asmo. You’re pretty sure he’s into some freaky shit. He just forgot that fluffy shit is also a very real and very necessary thing.)

When you tell him that you need a hug, he kinda blinks at you in confusion for a few seconds and asks, “....Need?” 

He can’t help but wonder if you got cursed or something, and if hugging is the cure. Like sleeping beauty but more platonic.

He wouldn’t put it past you. You’re very hex-able. 

And you’re like “Yes I need one please” but you don’t elaborate any more than that, so he’s confused but accepting, and just kinda. Holds his arms straight up. T-poses at you.

It’s weird. Not very effective at asserting his dominance. You snort and wrap your arms around him, and sloooowly, he lowers his arms to wrap them around you in a hesitant hug.

He awkwardly pats your back. 

You tell him to stop being weird and just squeeze you already.

Which he does. And it hits him all at fucking once that this is actually really nice, oh no--

Needless to say, he’s gonna start slyly asking you for affection too. But in really obvious ways where he’s like, “Oh noooo a spell backfired on me, quick I need to hold your hand or I might die”

He’s so full of shit. 

You definitely hold his hand. With passion. 

((part one with the demon brothers))

[rat-nitty]

Im really tired from doing the animatic so have this really fast little mouse sketch thing of the kids but they’re like 5 years older plus some funny headcanons cause everyones doing it so I can too :)

Jojo Hugs???😈

Workin’ on Communication Breakdown but also thinking about Jojo hugs so here’s me rating how good they would hug because I’m self-indulgent whoops-

Jonathan

Best hugs and y’all know it. Impeccable protective energy. When you are trapped in the cocoon that is Jonathan Joestar, you are safe from all emotional and bodily harm. Will not hesitate to fucking squeeze the shit out of your organs but its the good kind of feeling (I know y’all know what I mean)

Additional notes:

-Has hugged every Joestar in my Jonathan Is Somehow Alive And Also Like 32 Because I Said So pocket dimension™

11/10 for also probably getting you a glass of water and a blanket, too :’)

Joseph

Listen...I don’t wanna say it, but someone has to,,,Joseph Joestar would have the most uncomfortable and squeamish hugs imaginable. Please don’t get me wrong, I love this man, but he can’t stop moving for a solid 30 seconds and he has no idea how to make anyone comfortable cause the only person he’s ever hugged is his grandma lmao

Additional notes:

-One time Josuke asked him for a hug and they both over-thought it and Joseph did that awkward hug-pat thing because of course he would and Josuke let go too early and the entire thing was a disaster to watch the entire city of Morioh died from second-hand embarrassment that day

5/10 but only because he’d probably feel bad and make you hot choccy or something

Jotaro

Awkward tall man who would rather jump off a cliff than show physical affection to most people. His hugs are few and far between, but if you ever experience one, GODjjhgjgjhg It's his secret weapon that NO one expects him to pull out but it's like,,,a complete cure-all,,,it’ll make anyone feel better

Additional notes:

-Yes he has hugged Koochie before when our boy had a rough day and yes he’s also the kind of person to take off his coat and wrap it around the person he’s hugging for that extra warmth and support

7/10 for the warm coat and awkward family reunion vibes

Josuke

You can already tell from his face that he’s the second best hugger on the fucking planet. Man’s got the Joestar bloodline ARMS AND WARMTH. If anything, he’s more like Jonathan than Joseph in that way. Is not afraid to hug ALL his best bros whenever they need them and yes he is indeed Okuyasu’s support bro all hours of the day and night

Additional Notes:

-He also probably smells really good aside from the almost monstrous amount of hairspray and gel he manages to fit in his hair but we’re overlooking that because he’s Josuke

9/10 only because of that incident with Joseph which made him too awkward to hug well for like,,,a solid 3 weeks

Giorno

Didn’t receive enough love as a child and rarely ever got hugged, which means he’s awful at it only naturally. He has no idea how to act and yes he’s the kind of person who would just go limp in someone’s arms instead of reciprocating the action because he doesn’t really know how :/

Additional Notes:

-Since living with the gang, they’re slowly helping him be more adjusted to stuff like that and now he’s learning that hugs are beautiful, wonderful things *in salesperson voice* THAT HE, TOO, CAN HAVE :D

4/10 pre and during canon, but jumps up to a 6/10 because HE IS TRYING AND IMPROVING HGGHGHGHN

Jolyne

You know the kind of hugs you would get from the totally wasted woman in the bar bathroom where you give her some water and she calls you her best friend and you guys probably take a picture together? Jolyne energy. You know that one really cool girl everyone knows and you lend her your class notes and she spits out her gum and buys you a coke for your troubles and gives you a “I seriously love you dude” hug? Also Jolyne energy. You can decide if you like it or not, but it's a very particular kind of hug that I’m always here to experience

Additional notes:

-Unlike her father, she can and will throw out cool kid hugs all the time and they always feel good no matter what. It's not something you can savour like a Joot hug, but its still real good all the same :)))

7/10 for best girl energy

Johnny

Touch-starved. So, so painfully touch-starved that it's not even funny. Is the kind of person to “hate” affection but WILL NOT let go and cling for as long as possible and then feel guilty about being so clingy which just results in more hugs

Additional notes:

-Don’t even tell me Gyro isn’t the most touchy, huggy kind of person and when you put the two of them in god-knows-where, America it makes for some wholesome shit

Like,,,a 5/10 for actually giving them but an 8/10 when receiving them

I know nothing about Gappy I’m so sorry, but he kinda gives off will hug one and only one person all the fucking time and nothing else energy but Jojolion homies if you see this please reply to this and tell me about this man’s hugging skills without spoilers for my poor followers lmao

23 days on from my dad's death...

My dad's personality has been gone for years. I mourned for him many times over the years. Especially BIG TIME when he forget my relation to him.

That was a KILLER to live with that. 💔

Cut my fucking heart right out, goddamn it!

I re-taught him who I was many times, but it never stayed in his head. It was not consistent. Sometimes he'd get it right, other times not.

"You're my son." That was cause for extra praise and kisses and pats on the back from me and mom.

He did at least call me his "good friend" or "best friend". I'll take it. It was true too.

You could say "we were tight" or "buddies", or "close", but that just scratches the surface.

More like conjoined twins. We were just that connected. Almost quasi-psychic. In the old times before his vascular dementia.

And his personality peeked out sometimes from behind his eyes during these years. Even if I was regarded maybe just as his best friend. He just couldn't grasp onto the son part. 😢

That was so fucking hard. That first day he didn't know me. He still had all the other parts of his personality. He was sometimes uncomfortable with me even sitting next to him. Let alone holding his hand, hugging, or kissing him.

He was a touchy-feely huggy-kissy dad. He wasn't shy about me. None that bullshit hyper-macho horseshit. Like these dad's that only shakes his son's hand on his birthdays.

I would do the teenager thing "come on dad my friends are here!"

But I'd give anything to be in that awkward teen era getting kissed on the face by my dad out of his pride for me. Like he was before the stroke.

And we were maniacs. But good nutjobs. Fun psychos. Tricksters, pranksters. We'd fuck with people in funny unique ways.

Rubber dog shit. I had a briefcase with fake money. I'd play dead at a mall on a bench. Telling dirty jokes I heard or stuff like that.

With all my shyness or social phobia, I didn't do it for any other reason, but to get a laugh from my dad. Everyone else were just NPCs to me. We never did anything to hurt anyone. Some people got uptight and even called security on us. Lol security never did anything really. They shrugged us off.

We were like Jackass, but we didn't tape it. It was our own "show", for fun memories, reminding each other about the laugh we had, only to laugh about it in the car!

He was a large part of me. And some part of me went into the crypt with him. There's a part of me that faded away with his personality too.

I keep telling these stories with/to my mom or to anyone with ears. Because I was proud of him. We had a lot of fun.

I miss that son of a bitch.

"I don't want to ruin your party" with Jake Virts?

Losing a friend is harder than breaking up with a lover.

You’re 100% convinced of this, and the reason that that’s true is because when you go through a break up, your friends are understanding.

When you have a fight with a friend, your other friends are gonna be dicks about it.

“You didn’t tell me we were going to Jake’s birthday party,” you hiss, clutching Brock’s hoodie as you try to stop him walking.

It doesn’t work; Brock is a lot stronger than you, and he’s a stubborn asshole, at that.

“Boes,” you continue, trying to dig your heels in. “Brock! I’m not going!”

“Yes you are,” he says. “You are going to Jake’s birthday party. This whole thing with Jake is dumb, and you’re gonna get over it.”

He finally stands still, crosses his arms and stares at you with a frown on his face. His voice is sharp when he speaks. “You’re my friend. You’re Petey’s friend. Bo loves you. Quinn misses you. And I don’t give a rat’s ass if Jake said some stupid shit and now you can’t even look at him anymore, you’re gonna get over it, because I don’t like that I can’t see two of my best friends at the same time.” He raises an eyebrow. “Besides, if you don’t come, Huggy is gonna be very upset. Do you wanna upset Huggy, Y/N?”

No, you don’t wanna upset Quinn. He’s kinda your rookie, or it feels like that anyway, when he came into the league wide eyed and nervous and you were the very first person to make him laugh and do three tequila shots, after which he threw up in Brock’s bathroom.

No team bonding like tequila bonding.

So, the threat of upsetting Quinn and the fact that Brock won’t let go of your wrist means you end up standing in Jake’s apartment, which is filled to the brim with teammates, and it’s so familiar it’s painful.

You haven’t been over there in 6 months. Ever since Halloween, since you were flirting with one of Jake’s non-hockey friends in a futile attempt to get over your pathetic crush on your absolutely-not-interested-in-that best friend, and Jake got unreasonably upset and said some messed up things.

Donny is sitting at your feet, wagging his tail. He got really excited when you came in and you’ve missed the dogs maybe even more than you’ve missed Jake himself, miss the way they would curl up on the couch with you when you watched Jake’s games on his television, miss how happy they got when you took them on walks, or how they would always sleep in the bed with you when you took care of them on Jake’s roadtrips.

“What did he even say?”

It’s Petey, who asks, suddenly and cutting through the loud music and the boisterous noises of hockey players playing drinking games. Of course it’s Petey; he’s always been able to look straight through people, and you’re no exception.

He can tell that you’re moping.

“He said that I can’t date his friends.” The words still sting, even months later. “He thinks I’m not good enough for them.”

Petey raises an eyebrow, looks like he doesn’t believe you. That stings, too, because you know they’re Jake’s teammates and you would never expect them to be angry at him on your account, but they’re your friends too and shouldn’t they at least believe you?

“Did he say that?” Petey presses. “Those words?”

“No, he said I’m not right for them.” Those words have haunted you every night since that Halloween.

“Ah,” Petey nods, as if that makes more sense.

“Tuna, birthday boy, come join me!” Troy calls out, and you watch as Jake makes his way towards the beer pong table. He’s wearing his snapback backwards, his shirt a little too tight, and there’s a few days worth of stubble on his chin. He looks like a fratboy. He looks good.

God, you miss him.

“I think you’re both dumb,” Petey declares. That’s not surprising; Petey thinks most people are dumb, except for Brock, who actually is dumb but has somehow managed to convince Petey he’s the best thing since sliced bread. It’s the hair, you think.

“Thanks, Alien,” you mumble, and Petey shoots you a dagger of a glare at the use of that nickname. You quickly ruffle his hair, and the glare softens.

“Talk to him,” he says, and you don’t bother to respond to that.

“Gonna get another drink.” You make your way into the kitchen. Donny follows you and suddenly Bruce appears, too, trotting into the kitchen with you.

You’re just rummaging through the fridge when a familiar voice sounds, making all the hairs in your neck stand up.

“They’ve missed you, you know.”

You stand back, close the fridge. “I’ve missed them too.”

When you turn to Jake, he’s leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed. His eyes are fixed on the cabinets behind you. He looks awkward, which is probably not fair, since this is his party.

“I can go, if you want,” you blurt out. “I don’t want to ruin your party.”

Jake’s frown, if anything, deepens.

It just makes you nervous, which makes you talk more. “Brock forced me to come, and I wasn’t gonna stay but I was talking to Huggy and then Petey and the dogs were there and…”

“I remember when you gave me my nickname.” Jake’s smile is small, private. “Everyone still calls me Tuna. Nobody still knows why.”

Your mouth shuts with a clack.

Jake sighs. “Look, I know we’re not okay, and you don’t wanna be in the same place as me, but these are your friends too. And, you know… You were gonna be my end game. So.” He shrugs. 

Before you can wonder what the hell that means, he continues. 

“We can just pretend to be friends for right now, and you can have a fun night with the guys, and then you can go back to hating me tomorrow. Just don’t leave, okay? Stay.”

“I don’t hate you.” Another thing you blurt out that you didn’t necessarily wanna say, but you don’t hate him.

It’s the opposite problem, in fact.

“It just wasn’t fun to hear that my best friend doesn’t think I’m good enough to date his friends, you know? Even though I wasn’t even planning to date them, I wasn’t flirting, really, I was just talking, and…”

“Not good enough?” Jake looks baffled. “That is what you thought I meant?”

You immediately go into defense, cross your arms around yourself to protect against the hurt that’s building up.

“That’s what you said.”

“I said you weren’t right for them.” Suddenly, Jake starts laughing.

Great, now you’re getting upset again.

“It’s not funny,” you bite, and you’re wondering whether you can push through him and reach the front door before Brock or Petey stop you, except then Jake steps forward and reaches out.

Suddenly his hands are on yours, carefully tugging them loose from where they’ve crossed under your arms.

“It’s a little funny,” he says, and his voice is fond, “that I somehow messed up telling you that I want to date you so much that you ended up thinking I think you suck.”

Something short circuits in your brain.

“You… want to date me?”

Jake sounds a little sheepish when he says: “That Halloween, I was jealous and kinda drunk. So it’s possible that I wasn’t entirely clear on my intentions.”

“Not entirely…” you sputter. “Jake, you sounded like you hated me!”

“I don’t.” Jake takes a step closer. “I really, really don’t. When I said you weren’t right for them, I meant to say you’re right for me.”

You can’t do much else than press up on your tiptoes and kiss him.

Somewhere in the background, someone yells: “Happy birthday, Tuna!”
