happy birthday, everyone's favorite gay robot <3

For the prompt Dream Wedding! My main Hayden is the Joker personality, so I wanted to manifest that:

mysterious - only close friend guests

rebellious - she wouldn't buy into the wedding industry so easily-- non-white dress, non-white cake

humorous - probably pops up in the vows & ofc smushing the cake everywhere

logical - despite being an inexpensive ceremony, i think hayden would still go with a cohesive theme. stars to match her job

thank you to @lizzybeth1986 for the organization & the hayden young masterlist for references <3 <3

This morning, I looked in the mirror and for the first time since I saw wires in my stomach...I didn't feel compelled to look away.

I didn't hate who I saw.

Happy Birthday, Hayden Young! 🌈🎂🍰🍩

Hi! This is my little silly submission, one of my favorite Hayden Young (F!Rebel Asian Hayden) quotes. I really really like this one as it happens after all her journey struggling with a lot of mixed feelings, (presumably) PTSD and her own evolving in a sincerity moment with MC (F! in my case) before the final battle w Eros.

I wanted to put on some nostalgic but also joyfull yellows, a butterfly for the evolving and some cheesy notes of course. 🌟🌈✨💫.

We love you, Hayden! 💖

Will Hayden use the note or no?🤔

I had an art planned for today but I couldn't do it 😭 I tried to draw all day but I couldn't😭 So I imagined a little bit of the marriage proposal 😍 I don't remember if I've already done that?😅

Hayden Appreciation Day!

For @haydenyoungappreciationweek, (hosted by @lizzybeth1986 and @sazanes) I wanted to do a series of headcanons surrounding some of the suggested prompts. My Hayden is a Black woman who changes to her name to Tess and my Perfect Match MC is named Jae.

Tess's future

Tess spends the first few years after Perfect Match living independently and exploring more about herself. She helps Keegan and Psyche gain self-determination for the rest of the Matches. Harley… is a more difficult case, but she refuses to give up on her. Down the line, she, Jae, and Sloane all move into a house together. They almost convinced Nadia and Steve to move in as well, but the two were very keen on having their own private space. Damien also preferred living alone and Khaan was focused on keeping Hamza stable in one place. The house has at least two guest rooms, one of which essentially becomes Alana's room when she needs a place to stay. Sloane follows in her mother's footsteps and the trio decide to have a baby. They name her Ursa, because bears are sacred to Artemis and no one in this family will turn down a Greek Mythology reference. Ursa's middle name is Mae because everyone in this family also respects the first Black woman in space. She's spoiled sweet and the epitome of the phrase "it takes a village."

Scrapbook

Tess loves photography, but she has no patience for organizing photos. Luckily, Sloane will take absolutely any excuse to make a file directory and Jae has a mountain of stationery supplies. After being together for years, their house has a scrapbook in about every corner. There's an entire bookshelf solely dedicated to Ursa.

Birthday/Road Trip/Bucket List

Tess is an Adventurer, so all her birthdays revolve around trips. She's the official photographer, Sloane is the itinerary master, and Jae is there to make sure everyone actually relaxes. When Ursa gets older, she becomes the official playlist mixer and snack picker.

Kim Washington

With Tess, Sloane, and Jae united at the hip, there was no way Kim would ever disappear from Tess's life. Especially after Ursa is born, there's frequent mother-mother-mother-daughter trips to Washington, D.C. to see Nana Kim.

Tess also spend a lot of one-on-one time with Kim. She's intent on forming her own relationship with Kim.

Work Day

Tess's invented job under Eros was being a photographer, but she decided to pursue it legitimately after the events of Perfect Match. Her first photo series revolves around working with Psyche to bring Matches into the public eye.

Pizza!

Tess loves pineapple on pizza. Fight me. It causes wars among the Argonauts to this day. She also branches out to more outrageous pizza pairings, partly to experiment and partly to see everyone's disgusted reactions.

[khoicesbyk]

It's Hayden Young Appreciation Day! Aka the birthday of my favorite green-eyed monster Jayden. I miss him. He was always so interesting and sweet and sexy. So in honor of today here's a little something of my baby on his birthday. It's simple yet sexy. Just the way I like him.

Seren had a bit of an accident

A few of the Noble Lady's bratty daughters decided bullying the servants was fun. So one of them tripped Seren. This is half a second before she realizes her knives are exposed. She's a bit surprised. She can't retaliate either.

Even though we could only celebrate Hayden's birthday for only one day...the presence, love and creativity all of you have brought for this character made it truly special. We can't thank all of you enough for spending Hayden's birthday with us, and celebrating this incredible character!!

In keeping with most of our weeks, the wonderful @sazanes and I have put together this gorgeous video of all the work we got from you as well as a special thank you to all the people and fan-community blogs who helped us signal boost this event!

A huge thank you to our CONTRIBUTORS, who left no stone unturned in creating such a variety of things for Hayden... fics, art, edits - we even got a gif of Hayden's iconic quote about looking in the mirror and no longer hating themselves, from their love confession!! I love how many of us reimagined what Hayden's eventual wedding would look like. Thank you all, so much, for showing us your love for Hayden through your creativity and thoughts 💗

Mars & Jupiter in Conjunction

Got up pre-dawn today to witness Mars and Jupiter in conjunction. Seen over Grand Traverse Bay, East Arm.

Also visible in the main (vertical) image above: the Pleiades (upper right), Orion (lower right), and Hyades with Aldebaran (just to the right of the Mars/Jupiter near-union). Four images by Richard Koenig; taken August 14th 2024.

Ameow! Hi! How are you? You're super cute!

Aldebaran (α Tauri, orange star, upper right) and some stars of the Hyades // Guillermo Cervantes Mosqueda

The name Aldebaran comes from the Arabic al Dabarān, meaning "the follower" because it seems to follow the Pleiades.
