i've chosen mental health and this is your sign to do the same! if you can take a break from something that isn't urgent, please do it! it's the best thing you can do for yourself. we all go through different things right now as i've noticed and it'll all be okay in the end. but please take care of your mental and physical health! take a break, don't do anything for a day or read your favorite book or watch your favorite movie / tv show. trust me, you earned it. there are better times ahead and even if you think they're not, if you're reading this, i manifest it for you! speaking of which, if anything good happens to you after reading this, feel free to tell me in private or anon. i'd love to hear about what made happy!

[evelili]

I know it’s been ages since I sent one of these, I’ve been busy and I’m still busy so I don’t have time to read the full chapter BUT!! Here’s some of my thoughts and favorite lines from the beginning of this chapter. The Final Trial.

I really love how you write the memory sequences in this story. They all flow really well and don’t feel redundant!! The reveal of these memories twilight has hidden of Luna are so good!! God!! Her devastation when she realized she had forgotten someone as important as Celestia’s SISTER her AUNT is AMAZING!!

-

her hair pulled back into a ponytail, her legs bare below the knees of a ridiculous pink-and-purple skort that she’d have been mortified to wear past puberty—eight or nine, then, she decided. It’s probably summertime, too.

-

God this mental image is so cute!! I had to google what skorts are but yeah they definitely fit Twilight and her character, especially as a kid!!

-

Twilight waited for her younger self to voice the familiar retort she thought she’d known her entire life—magic isn’t real; magic doesn’t exist; magic is fictional and fantastical and lies. But instead of a rational dismissal she heard her voice ask something completely wrong instead:

“You’re really going to show me how?”

And Twilight didn’t hear anything else after that.

-

DAMNNN this sequence is so good!! The way twilights world is just DESTROYED by this is fantastic!!

-

“Well, I wanted to check in on the two of you.” The door swung further open, and suddenly Twilight was face-to-face with the Celestia of her childhood—younger by nearly a decade and yet still recognizable in almost every way. She hadn’t ever thought time had changed her mentor much, but the contrast between present and past was far more blatant when not viewed as a gradual shift. No laugh lines. No grey hairs. No ice in her eyes.

Just a Celestia whose very presence made Someone bristle in response.

-

This description of her is DEVASTATING. She’s both somehow unhappier and so much happier with Luna in her life. The way you write her is stunning and I’m loving the conflict between her wanting Luna to focus on the future and Luna who is focused on enjoying the present. It’s a very cool conflict and I love how you’re handling it!! Them both caring more about twilights emotions than each other’s is heartbreaking

-

It did—to both the Twilight of the present and the past. “Yeah,” she said quietly. “I get it.”

-

Fuck this line is FANTASTIC. The understanding twilight finds in her memories of Luna are fantastic and I’m very curious on how this will impact how she handles Nightmare going forward. Unfortunately I can’t read anymore tonight, but I love it so far!!

STOP THE CLOCK. I FORGOT THIS BANGER LINE: “You believe in magic, Twilight,” she said gently. “And so long as you do, that’s belief enough for me.” The way you write Luna and how much she and celestia both love twilight is DEVASTATING

(combined ur two asks together) WAHHHH thank u so much for the asks!!! and no worries abt taking ur time w the story, u only get to read once for the first time after all!

this chapter is definitely Up There in terms of how happy i am with how it turned out, im rlly glad u liking it so far! i dont know how much i can say without spoiling things, but a reminder to read on fimfic to get the Full Experience (epub missing images my nemesis), a rather important section will b missing otherwise!!

i think to me a big aspect of luna and celestia's relationship in the show that kinda got glossed over was that celestia may not have realized how her actions affected luna until too late. and, it's kind of the "road to hell with good intentions" thing, bc i dont think celestia is the bad guy (at least in tte) for believing that the best way to help someone is plan, prepare, try to think ahead and look forward, etc. but, this kind of mindset can clash with someone who, at that moment, finds the prospect of thinking about the future so impossible. writing from life helped a lot in this regard :)

also, completely unrelated but also related, have a meme :D and thanks again for reading!

Idiot

Tsukasa & Nene (Project Sekai)

a/n: @thatonetickleblog PAYTON IT WAS REALLY HARD KEEPING IT A SECRET FROM YOU, BUT GUESS WHOS UR SQUEALING SANTA! i was really happy that i got you, especially we have similar interests and i originally planned to get this done for christmas but things came up… anyways, i kinda struggled characterizing nene so sorry if she’s ooc, BUT I HOPE U ENJOY PAYTON ILYSM

summary: when nene and tsukasa are left alone to practice for a show, things end up turning in a way neither of them expected.

word count: 1.2k

——

Nene stood awkwardly as Tsukasa prattled on and on about their next show. He was clearly and very vocal about his excitement. Of course, she was excited too, but… did he have to be. so loud?!

The two were at Tsukasa’s house. Rui realized he forgot an important prop and went to go get it, Emu deciding to tag along. This left Nene and Tsukasa all alone, which Nene didn’t mind, but she wasn’t used to dealing with the other’s seemingly infinite amount of energy.

“So what do you think, Nene?!” Tsukasa shouted, after a few minutes. Nene flinched at being addressed all of a sudden.

“It’s.. an idea, alright..” She started, but trailed off. “But…”

“But..?” This caught Tsukasa’s attention as he slowed down his movements, intent on listening to her completely.

“I think if we reveal who the culprit was at the end… it might leave the audience feeling unsatisfied? It kinda.. takes out the magical feel to it…” She mumbled, feeling shy. “I-I mean, it’s a good idea but the kind of story we are acting feels like an open ending would fit better.”

Tsukasa was silent for a few moments and Nene wondered if he didn’t like what he said.

“Hah!” Tsukasa yelled out, suddenly, hitting his fist to his palm. “You’re right, Nene!”

Tsukasa pulled out a pencil and began marking on the script. Nene, on the other hand, watched. She didn’t respond to his words, but she could feel happiness swelling up in her chest. She was afraid he wouldn’t like her changing the script, but she forgot what kind of person Tsukasa was.

“There we go! How’s that?” Tsukasa exclaimed, handing her the script. She read over it and skimmed through the notes, before giving an approving nod.

“It’s good.” She said, giving it back to the other.

“Great! Let’s practice!”

“N-now?! Shouldn’t we wait until Emu and Rui come back?” She asked, though she stood up anyway.

“We’ll practice when they are here too, but no harm in getting a head start!” Tsukasa explained, standing alongside her. He stretched his arms up for a moment, but pointed at a certain scene. “Let’s start here!”

“Okay..”

——

And so, they practiced. Since Tsukasa was the star of the show this time, that meant there were more scenes were Nene wasn’t as present or kinda just… stood there awkwardly. She didn’t mind, though. She didn’t want a lead spot like Tsukasa, anyway. Still, the role she was in, as the main character’s magical fairy guide, was a bit more out there than her previous roles.

“Hi-yah!” Tsukasa shouted, thrusting his palm out to the side and…

“Ow!” Nene gasped, holding her nose.

“Nene! I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to do that!” Tsukasa all but lept at her, concern painted on his face.

“You..” Nene said, voice a bit nasally from covering her nose.

“How can I make it up to you?!”

“You idiot!” Nene let her impulses get the best of her as she pounced on Tsukasa, feeling a sudden desire for payback. She wasn’t exactly sure what fo do, thouugh, until she landed on top of him. Tsukasa, clearly not prepared for this uncharacteristic action, toppled over, landing on the sofa. A small squeal slipped from his mouth and it didn’t take a genius to figure out why. Nene looked down, her hands gripping each side of Tsukasa’s ribs.

“NenEHEHEHE?!” He blurted, but was interrupted by his own laughter. Nene didn’t really know exactly what she was doing, but now that she started, she felt she couldn’t stop.

“You need to be more careful wifh your actions.” She pouted, annoyed, but kneaded her small hands into the other’s sides.

“Whahahat ahahahare y-you dohohohoing?!” Tsukasa screeched, shocked and embarrassed. Nene felt embarrassed too, but she pushed that feeling away.

“Payback..” She said, simply, not trusting herself to say any more. It was hard to admit, but Tsukasa actually.. looked quite cute like this. She was used to his boastful smiles and laughter, but this.. felt more genuine, like a side of Tsukasa she rarely got to see.

“Pahahahay bahahack?! I sahahahaid I wahahahas s-sohohorry!”

“Maybe you shouldn’t have been so reckless!” Nene spat, pinching in between each of the bones in his ribs. His ribs seemed like a sensitive area, but they couldn’t ellicit anything more than giggles and Nene had the urge to incite laughter out of the blond.

Instead, she began squeezing at his sides, light and barely there, but enough for yet another squeal to pass Tsukasa’s lips.

“NOHOHOHO N-nohohot thEHehere!”

Oh. This seemed like a good spot. Nene decided to linger there for a couple seconds, testingly trying different areas of his sides, different pressures, anything to see what gave her the most reactions.

“You’re so sensitive. It’s fitting for you…” She muttered, pressing at his sides like they were buttons on a controller.

“W-whAHAHAt is thAHAHAHAt s-sUHPOSehehed tohoho mean?!” Tsukasa cackled. “Just pihick sohohomewhere else!”

“If you say so.” And so, somewhere else became his stomach, including his belly button. She scribbled over his ticklish skin, though she could tell the clothing he was wearing offered some protection, but still drove him mad nonetheless.

“EhEHEHEHEh..!” Tsukasa shrieked, giggling and laughing. He seemed to squirm a lot, but didn’t put up much of a fight. Nene decided to store that in her mind for later, but then she thought about how stupid it would be to do that, so she erased it from her mind. (She would still remember.)

“Everywhere is just so.. sensitive, isn’t it?” Tsukasa blushed at that. It was true. Tsukasa was one of the most ticklish people she knew, even among her troupe, which were embarrassingly ticklish themselves. She was sure it was her and Tsukasa who held the record. Though, it was only Rui who knew about this fact compared to everyone being aware of Tsukasa’s ticklishness, through the fours’ countless tickle fights. Nene usually stayed out of those, though.

“Stohohohop..!” Tsukasa mumbled, through his laughter, holding his hands up to his face.

“…” Nene dipped her finger into his bellybutton. At least, as far as it could go through his clothes, and vibrated her fingers.

“AHHHAHHAAHA!”” Tsukasa laughed and laughed and Nene smiled along with him, resisting the urge to laugh to show him just how much she was enjoying this. But, she could indulge herself in a smile at the very least, she thought to herself.

“Ah, looks like you two had fun without us, huh?” Rui’s smirk could be heard in his voice and just like a cat, Nene jumped from her current position to almost all across on the other side of the room, her blush matching Tsukasa’s for being caught. Tsukasa stayed where he was, residual giggles leaving his mouth.

“Nene, you tickled Tsukasa?! No fair!” Emu pouted, though she seemed happy that they seemed to have a good time.

“Shut up..” Nene muttered, quietly, crossing her arms.

“Yeah, she got me pretty good…” Tsukasa sighed, the laughter and tingles finally leaving his system.

“I wanna tickle Tsukasa too!” Emu exclaimed, wiggling her fingers. Tsukasa only responded with a gulp.

“It has been a while, hasn’t it?” Rui pondered, almost as if he was feeling nostalgic.

“It’s only been two days!” Tsukasa squawked, panic and anticipation in his face, but before he could say any more, Emu was already tickling him, Rui following shortly after.

Idiots, Nene thought, as she smiled and decided to join in.

a lil recap of last chapter: you're assigned to work the red carpet at a national awards gala. there, you interview tons of celebrities, including kaminari! kaminari is super nice & you leave the event feeling exhausted, relieved, and satisfied all at once. you return home to take a light nap, only to wake up to a notification from your phone. it seems kaminari is texting you...? that's weird.

You throw your phone on the couch and bury your head in your hands. Your heart is racing at the thought of seeing Kaminari again. You have to pause and take a deep breath to calm yourself down. Thankfully, you have the rest of today to spend freaking about and picking out ten different outfits that you’ll never wear.

As for right now, though… It’s time to distract yourself. You pull up a Youtube video and resolutely pretend not to think about your date tomorrow.

thx for reading <33333

[scorpiongrassfield]

You’re in a Motel Room 

Start | Prev

The most notable thing in the room is the large cork board propped up in front of the TV. It has pictures and documents pinned up, with strands of yarn connecting them. 

Huh. You thought that was something people only did in shows. 

It wouldn’t surprise you that Pat would make one even if it was. 

The room is otherwise pretty unremarkable. Another bed to mirror yours, a bedside table wedged between them, a desk on the side of the room closest to yours, an armchair on the other side. 

So this is where you and Pat have been staying. Weird that you haven’t seen it until now. 

You push that though aside in favor of inspecting the note on the bedside table, which is written in neon green ink. 

It reads: 

“I’m gonna get some laundry done at the laundromat down the street. Don’t forget to eat when u wake up. Txt me if u need anything. - Pat 

p.s. Ur phone password is 0324, in case u forgot :P” 

Alright then. 

You have been wondering about how to get into your phone. 

At the moment, it’s charging on the desk. 

There’s also a set of keys and a caramel almond breakfast bar on the desk, the latter of which is half hidden under another sticky note that says “EAT THIS”. 

You aren’t really hungry though. Maybe later. 

When you type in the pass code, it actually works. Sweet. 

Your home screen is another cartoon character - a guy with short blond hair and orange eyes. He’s wearing a green jacket with fluff lining the hood. 

One of these days you’ll have to track down the shows these characters are from. They must have been important to you. 

But for now, you have a mission. 

Your text history is completely empty, but you do have Pat’s information in your contacts, along with two other people. One is “Angie” and the other is “Ghost Emoji”. 

You frown at your past self. 

Why bother putting someone in your contacts like that? 

Still frowning, you send Pat a text: 

[Will you need the car in the next few hours?] 

Pat sends back:  

{No Entry Sign Emoji} {where r u headed?} 

You Respond: 

[I want to follow up on a lead] 

{taking the initiative? excellent. Party Popper Emoji}  {try not 2 faint while driving, tho. or zone out.} {or almost hit another Deer Emoji}

[-_-] 

{hey… u can’t act like my worries aren’t warranted, kid. Pensive Emoji  just be careful.}

[I will] 

{then u have my blessing. pick up some Pizza Emoji on the way back if you can.}

[Okay] 

Pat doesn’t have anything else to say on the matter, so you unplug your phone and pocket it. 

You grab the keys and are halfway out the door when you realize that you have no idea where you are in relation to Theo’s cabin. Or what his address is. 

Your phone remedies the first problem pretty easy. Thank goodness for map apps. 

The second issue takes a little more thinking. 

You remember seeing the address on the papers about the cabin Pat gave you before. 

Where did they go? 

There are only so many places they could be in the motel room. You find them on the cork board after a few minutes. 

You put the address into your app and let it pull up a route for you. 

It’s about an hour away. For whatever reason, you and Pat aren’t staying in the town where the incident took place. 

Ah well. You’re sure you’ll be able to get yourself there in one piece. 

It’s facing the cabin again that worries you. 

What if it bites you again? 

You try to push the worry aside as you get into the car.

[violentshine]

gonna talk about a thief in thunderclan

i love slice of life stuff but. it didn't really show much of it. we get moments of brightheart calling cinderpelt her sister but there's no reference of her being thornclaw's and brackenfur's sister also really wished there was more frostfur :( Brightheart keeps mentioning her and Frostfur just never shows up other than to get one sentence congratulating her pregnancy. What's up with that

ive seen ppl call the fact the thief was just an owl a bit anticlimactic but i thought it was neat. shows that not every bad thing that happens is from some greater evil. if anything im surprised something like that hasn't happened before. cover your food. these guys would never survive walking a boardwalk with fries

one storytelling element i did not like is graystripe like as a whole

His response at BrightCloud after knowing they didn't tell him about the prey thief was weird considering every cat knew prey was disappearing. the gouges in the ground could be seen by anyone. the fact it took two warriors and not even the deputy to sit and think about "hm what could possibly leave this claw marks and take all our food" it was also really strange how this just didn't seem like an issue the cats cared about. Usually prey is a big deal and the fact it just going missing unnoticed and no cat is talking about it besides "hey where'd all the food go" and just leaving it at that (Also Cloudtail didn't seem to care either ?? Something has important as food going missing just didn't mater with any cat other than Brightheart ??)

these r the same guys that will pummel another clan cat if they so think they hunted over the border. if there's anything a cat shouldn't mess with is their food supply- it seemed thunderclan could care less about their food vanishing

another thing. ur telling me brightheart first bonding moment with longtail was after he got injured and idk not after the events of swiftpaw? Despite the controversy over their conversation, it feel like its such a lackluster reason for that to be the thing that brings them together. The book shows Brightheart's only issue with not trusting Longtail is because he's a clan mate and not idk someone you'd think she'd be acquainted with ? Someone that grieved over the same cat she did. And it seems so offensive for the book to say "oh longtail was friends with tigerstar that's why brightheart feels like she can't trust him" and not mention that tigerstar was responsible for leading the dogs to thunderclan. Longtail being blinded was the thing that was meant to assure Brightheart that he could be trusted ?? That's crazy

It's not like they forgot about Swiftpaw. He made an appearance, he was there. The writers just didn't seem to care to show a connection.

ok i know that you may not like destiel, but i promise you, as a fellow sam stan, the second half, especially the last couple chapters, of to become a man goes fucking wild for sam. it drives me feral even to this day. no spoilers tho.

when i was reading this fic, i would refer to to exist again because the interconnectivity is off the charts. the dialogue from the two fics are the same but the perspectives are different, so reading to exist again only or to become a man only is completely different experience off what is basically the same series. its like how arrested development's orginal formatting final season had all the different perspectives and jokes set up in each episode that didnt make sense until you watched the entire thing. and it is hilarious. the setup, which seem offhanded and weird pieces of dialogue in to exist again become key plot elements in to become a man. and deans perspective of magic is so different from sam's and cas. you just get a really good feel for how much of a freak sam is and how normal dean is in a world full of magic. it just adds another layer to world building.

and the fic addresses all of the issues i have about dean. it doesnt just wave a wand and make him unproblematic, but demenior makes dean work for it. he has character arc. he is not perfect at the end, but he is trying and that is what is important. and you also gotta to read to become a man just because of the whole cliff hanger for to exist again. once the to become a man has caught up with to exist again. i mean. the answers are definitely worth the wait.

i can tell you what specific chapters that are important for sam. i never reread the fic in its entirety but only to specific chapters that drive me, as a sam stan, insane. but its also the little moments between the major sam plot points that treat sam and deans relationship with such care and fucked-up-ness that i would recommend that you dont. you got to find the parts that drive you insane yourself

oh my god. i almost forgot about dem's characterization of purgatory. i dont want to spoil it, but it really expands on the wrongness of the leviathans and purgatory that supernatural never was able too.

and overarching themes. the overarching themes. its fucking beautiful and ties up everything so well. sam and dean have their own themes and arcs (which you can pretty much get from their story titles) that complement each other so well with the overarching message (the love it takes). it is wild. no it is well thought and planned.

warning: there is eldritch monster sex scenes in to become a man. you can skip it if you are not into it. there are warnings at the top of those chapters.

i could write essays about to exist again and to become a man. i could talk about them all day.

and it was such a joy reading it in real time. the theories and analyses that the readers made comment section for each chapter. the real time interactions with the author. it just made the experience so much better. and the music. oh the music that goes with this fic.

if i were you, i would reread to exist again whenever the timeline matches up with to become a man. it so worth it.

and the dem shares many of your cas/angel headcannons that are fully fleshed out in this fic.

oh and @demenior has little fics of the love it takes on their tumblr (this fic series is why i joined tumblr the first time around).

wow hello!!! it would be a mess to try and respond to each part of this individually but i read all of it closely and rlly appreciate the breakdown!!! i could rave about to exist again all day for the rest of time (the lorebuilding alone holy shit??? seriously its. im. its SO good.) and you make an excellent case for to become a man (congrats on ur lawboy coding) so clearly i will just have to reread the former and read the latter as soon as possible

It's the best appreciation you can show to a writer you like.

Thanks for the request. I've actually never written anything like this. So I had no clue what I was doing. But I hope you like it anyway.

And it's never a lot to ask. I'm always happy about requests. The time I'm writing is always my personal time cause writing is my way to cope.

----------

“Hey, Noaf. Have you listened to the album I recommended you?”, I wondered.

“Of course. It was great!”, she proclaimed.

“Wanna come to my place and listen to more today?”, I offered.

“Sure”, she agreed without hesitation.

“Hey, but we wanted to bake cookies today”, Dina protested.

“Oh, right! Sorry, sweetie. I forgot that it's already Thursday. Then how about tomorrow?”, I addressed Noaf again at the end.

“Yeah, why not?”, she shot back casually.

“Looking forward to it”, I stated with a wink before turning over to Mariam. “Did you bring the poster we were working on yesterday?”

“Here it is. I think we should get an easy A for it”, she assumed.

“Thanks to you, bunny”, I praised her with a grin while squeezing her shoulder.

I returned to my seat to take a look at my homework for the next lesson. After all I did not want my grades to drop.

“Hey, (f/n). Rania and I are going to a party this weekend. Could you cover us by ensuring our parents that we're sleeping over at your place?”, Layan begged me with puppy eyes.

“Sure. But only if you repay me for it afterwards”, I noted with a seductive voice.

“Oh, she knows what she wants”, Rania announced with a chuckle.

“Sure thing, babe. We'll think of something, right, Rania?”, Layan promised.

“Yeah, won't be too difficult”, she agreed.

“Great then”, I remarked, looked each of them in the eyes for a moment and then turned back to my notes.

“What was that about?”, Mariam questioned.

Jealousy was evident in her voice.

“I'm just flirting around. You usually don't have a problem with it when I do it with you”, I pointed out.

“So it doesn't mean anything?”, she inquired.

“Of course it means something, bunny”, I immediately reassured her and took her hand. “Never forget how great you are, okay? That I flirt around with others doesn't mean that you're any less important.”

She nodded, but still seemed to feel insecure.

“Come here”, I instructed and opened my arms for her.

She sat down on my lap and I held her for a moment.

“Better now?”, I wondered after a while.

“Yes, thank you”, she whispered and went back to Dina.

The next few lessons went by without anything major happening.

In P.E. we were playing basketball.

I watched Rania and Layan playing and cheered them on.

They were looking absolutely stunning while playing and especially Rania was simply great at Basketball.

When it was my turn to play and I scored some points Mariam and Dina cheered for me and I got a high-five from Rania and Layan.

Someone from the other team accidentally bumped into me making me fall to the ground.

“What the hell?”, Layan raged and pushed the girl.

I did not recognize who it was as I was slightly disoriented.

“Are you okay?”, Dina questioned, Mariam and Noaf right behind her looking worried as well.

“It's nothing, guys. Just a few scrapes and light bruises. But I'm really dazzled that you're all caring so much for me”, I proposed with a seductive grin while placing my hand over my heart.

“You're the worst”, Noaf joked.

“And still you're all putting up with me”, I shot back and took Rania's hand to let her pull me back up. “So come on! Let's play!”, I encouraged everyone.

Miss Jumana shook her head with a smile and supported my suggestion.

“Like what you see?”, I teased Mariam when I caught her looking at me in the changing room which made her blush.

“How could anyone not like it?”, Layan proposed with a cocky grin.

I inched closer to her. “Gotta say that I like what I see as well”, I noted in a low voice.

I could see that it was hard for Layan to compose herself.

I started laughing and turned back to my locker to finish getting dressed.

When I left the bus with Dina after school I quickly turned back to Layan and Rania. “Looking forward to the weekend, girls. Oh and feel free to call me anytime. That also counts for you, Mariam”, I declared and disappeared out of sight for them.

[coeurify]

We talked, they had their input and I had mine. I asked them what was last month and they said it was nothing special really so I asked them if they were positive and all they said was "it was March". I kid you not I could see the wheels in their head spinning. I went and took a walk to calm down and when I got back they were crying and begging me to forgive them, I said it would take a while because I didn't really want to deal with anything at that moment, they apologized profusely and we just held each other. And then guess what. Not even 30 minutes later they are talking about the new partner and how they went on a date on the 6th. The day of our anniversary. I got mad and we yelled, and I had every right to be upset, they told me I had nothing to be that mad about. I locked myself in our room and packed their things and asked them to leave. They left and then when they got home texted me and said we were done because I'm "too possessive and jealous." I'm currently staring at all the missed calls from their mom.

-🙃

oh my love :(( im so sorry it went that way. they obviously dont respect you, considering how they reacted to the situation after you expressed being upset. i reblogged one of my mutuals talking abt ur previous but im gonna add that here . its ok to not want a relationship like that, and its more than ok to expect respect and care about important things such as anniversaries. the fact they reacted how they did and are now seemingly involving their mom.. not ok. you being upset they forgot your anniversary and then talked abt spending thst dsy with their other partner is not possessive.. its a normal reaction. maybe this is best, and its ok to not want poly relationships im the future. dont let others decide what u need to be ok with, u deserve the sort of live YOU want.

[catoscloves]

HI OMG I JUST FOUND UR ACC AND I JUST WANT TO KNOW UR CLATO HCS BC I LUVVVV THEM

I'M SO SORRY I LITERALLY FORGOT TO ANSWER THIS!! I'M OBSESSED WITH YOUR URL AND LOVE MEETING A FELLOW CLATO SHIPPER <33

the way these two consume my thoughts..... i actually started writing a fic about it (for the first time in like three years i think) so i could explore that dynamic, because it's so fascinating to me how these brutal soulless murderers (as katniss saw them) immediately became scared children the moment one of them was hurt - AND THEY CARED!! ABOUT EACH OTHER!! or at least that was true on cato's side haha (which brings me to my first head canon:)

I've seen a lot of takes where cato is completely whipped while clove is colder than he is emotionally but still soft around him, and then the other takes where he's like just as mean as she is, and i love that happy balance between the two <33 how i interpret his character is that he's a really overzealous teenage boy that's excited and wants to contribute in a positive way/give his existence worth, and that's why d2's propaganda system so easily took advantage of him, but he also is ironically soft where it counts, and clove eventually gets to see that side of him!! but it doesn't completely undo the way he was raised and clove was slowly growing on him/becoming someone he wanted to have around in that arena but he won't let that show in an excessively obvious way, at least not purposefully. but clove obviously has more control over her emotions than he does and when he felt threatened or hurt or in pain, and he felt all of those things as he watched clove died, he lost that control completely. clove grew equally as attached to him but she values her composure more than he does, which to me explains the discrepancy between their personalities.

my personal interpretation that's actually so important to me (it doesn't prevent me from enjoying the clato fics that go with the traditional They Knew Each Other Before The Games/Were Childhood Best Friends route but there's something so soft to me about this:) is that they did not know each other beforehand. they were just two random kids in d2 that chose to volunteer that year because they both saw their chance. they had no reason to care and were honestly completely indifferent to one another, both only focused on wanting to win. but it's a combination of all these little things: having been raised with the same ideas, sticking together as a team both before and during the Games, reminding each other of home, strategizing together and bonding as a team, secretly admiring the other's skills, late night conversations in the arena about their personal lives, and most importantly: the rule change bringing them closer... neither expected to care but unwillingly they grew to become amazing friends!!!! and they became invested in going home together, slowly becoming something like best friends, having someone to understand them, until obviously all of that came crashing down.

sorry for my mini rant lol, i get excited when talking about things i'm passionate about. as for small general headcanons: he's the only one she'll let touch her hair, and obviously this wouldn't happen in the Arena because they're on TV but she contemplated that idea for a little bit while she was trying to fall asleep, him braiding her hair. they look after each other's weapons and take turns keeping watch over the other at night, it's a kind of intimate vulnerability for them. and there is a LOT of friendly as well as unfriendly teasing/banter.

[quiveringdeer]

sweet nat I would like ur thoughts on one toji fushiguro!!

Thanks for this Mar! I dunno why I originally saw the post as separate ask prompts when I sent you the Gojo one, instead of answering them all about a character, my bad!

If anyone else wants to send an ask for this feel free!

Why I like them:

I'm always a sucker for a powerful antagonist lol Especially when they have heaps of trauma built in too, and Toji has that for sure! The way he was outcast by his family but used his heavenly restriction to overcome so much and become a notorious assassin is just peak character to me

Why I don't:

There's not really anything I dislike about him tbh 🤷🏽‍♀️

Favorite scene: 

To thirst over- In the anime when he catches the fish in his mouth and then the way his tongue sticks out after releasing it??? 🥵🥵🥵 Mappa had NO RIGHT --plus the backflips in the air with his shirt riding up juuuust enough to give a peak at his back - Chefs's kiss /CINEMA/

In general- The moments of flashback where he recalls his first wife's words about taking care of Megumi and then ends up offing himself to protect Megumi from himself. 

Favorite season/movie:

Second season of the show and every single scene involving him if im truthful

Favorite line:

 “I don’t go by Zen’in anymore. I got married and took my wife’s name. I go by Fushiguro now." -mans loves his wife TO THIS DAY! 

Favorite outfit: 

The classic tight dark shirt white slouchy pants combo

OTP: 

Toji x Mamaguro OF COURSE! Gosh what I wouldnt give to have some slice of life info from Gege on how they met, fell in love and the little time they all spent together after Megumi was born 🥹 Their love story is so important to me, like she's the G.O.A.T. of "I can make him better" uuuuugh 

BroTP: 

Uhhhh him and the worm lmao The fact the official fanbook says: "Toji was able to establish a friendly relationship with his inventory curse by earnestly training it like a pet." makes me giddy

Headcanon:

I dunno what's canon, fanon or simply conjecture since i havent read the manga but- I dont believe Toji ever /actually/ forgot who Megumi was in part 1 of Hidden Inventory. I think he was playing it up to downplay Megumi's importance to him in order to keep him safe. I think nearly every decision he makes is to try and keep Megs safe. Naming him a traditionally girl's name to potentially keep the rest of the Zenin clan off their trail since they dont value women no matter their cursed techniques. Finding a wealthy second wife to link himself to so that Megs wouldn't grow up destitute with just him ((even tho i read Toji and Tsumiki's mom apparently "ran away together" and spent up all the inheritance? i dunno i still wanna believe okay)) The way he saw his first wife/first love tbh- in Megumi when they were fighting in the alley and he flashbacked to her telling him to keep Megs safe. I also think that regardless of if it turned out Megs had ended up with the Zenins and taken their clan name after his first death- or the current timeline of him remaining Fushiguro, that Toji would have killed himself to protect Megumi in that last moment. I think the fact that he still had the Fushiguro name let him at least die more peacefully this second time. 

Unpopular opinion:

It's hard for me to read certain Toji x Reader content because of how integral I view his relationship with Megumi's mom. I'm not a fan of erasing her from his story/life or having reader be that person for him. I dunno why this is a sticking point for me of all the things I read and write lmao Still love reading shameless smut and also sometimes fluff with him that doesnt dive too deep into things but for deeper dives I feel like any Toji x Reader should be mainly one sided, unrequited romantic feelings for him 

A wish: 

More backstory for him! There was a fan mockup of sequel focused on him as a kid and growing up and I wanted it to be true sooo bad! I mean we all know he's Gege's favorite so if Gege didnt hate us they'd make it happen, but alas 😩 For now I make do with the adorable art by DDub1618 on twitter!

An oh-god-please-don't-ever-happen:

5 Words to best describe them:

geeze this feels hard for some reason hmmm: The Greatest of All Time 😎

My nickname for them:

Daddy 😏

an episode

today started out in one the worst ways possible. my sleep was disturbed. forcing me to go somewhere i have zero interest in. something binding me to staying there so that i couldnt leave in bw. feels like hell. i watched a movie, and it felt like the whole world judged me for it. all the conversations include my dad and i am gonna throw up all over if they dont stop. i am everywhere i am happily only if i do not hear about him. listening to anything that includes him makes me sick. and seems like everyone around me forgot to grow up. conversing like children, fighting, hanging over the same topic for a million years, keep fighting with no logics. pls make this end. and i had 2 episodes today and one yesterday night. i hate being forced to do something and i think that is what is causing these and they are developing headaches. this is a real issue bc, obviously, and also bc ive never had headaches before this, in my life, ever. i just cried briefly for 2 seconds before i got interrupted. what do i hate about this? everything. i just want to live peacefully and fucking everything everyone around me does is triggering me. i cannot help but think maybe its me. but then, what can i do to change any of this? completely blacked out, unable to breath, headaches, rotting in bed, pulling my hair hoping this pain will distract me from the pain in my heart. and the worst part is that i am in this alone. nobody understands neither do they try. this is what is pushing me into this hole of not caring about anything. to just plug in and be on my phone or just sleep and pretend that nothing is happening. when i know very well the moment i turn the volume down im gonna be haunted down. if not by others, then by my own thoughts. i have no idea what will help. my dress, my hair, my face, my body, my footwear, my bag, my phone, my laptop, my behaviour, my character, my personality, my fitness, my mind, my friends, my education, my music choices, people have opinions about everything. fuck it they judge my sleep schedule. i wouldnt care if its some random people, but ur own family? something u thought u could rely on and tell things to? when u think of someone as the most important person in ur life throughout ur life time and u see them spiralling and love them regardless but something is just off? i dont even know if i can talk to someone freely without any consequences anymore. heck, im only now realising how long its been since ive talked to a person honestly and comfortably, being myself, without giving every single one of my words much thought. its been so long since ive built up these walls. being alone now feels like the new normal. and anything else is just contrary it, and ive convinced myself this is for the best. not because it is but because it is the only option i have left. CONTRARY. as i am just writing this, my aunt comes upto me and tells me how she loves me sm and not to be mad at her if she points out something about me. i mean, im never really mad. im dissapointed. im so dissapointed in everyone, it would take another lifetime to talk about it. but i wont because idc. I DO NOT CARE.

[kashimos-hajime]

NO BECAUSE I WAS JUST ABT TO TURN MY PHONE OFF AND HEAD TO BED UNTIL I SAW THAT U UPDATED AND AAA INSTANTLY UNRUINED MY DAY THANK YOU

OKAY OKAY so i love how there was still a moment of soft fluffy comfort despite the unresolved angsty(is that the right word) mess geto and yn have going on rn coz despite the whole sort of but not rly intentionally pushing each other away thing they are doing, they would still go out of their way to be there for each other instead of committing to the bit. am i reading too much into this? probably. is this bare minimum? most likely </3 but geto ‘regurgitates his food out at the thought o commitment’ suguru and yn ‘physically and mentally mortified to form connections’ ln, both certifiably traumatised, could have easily taken the easy way out and dipped and ykw they deserve brownie points for that. also toge is so real for that i just know he gave geto the biggest stink eye the next time he saw him after that text 💀 AND LOOK WHEN I SAW THE UPDATE WAS TITLED ITADORI MY DUMB ASS LITERALLY WENT ‘aw maybe we are gonna see yn and yuji become fast friends and it’ll be rly cute’ BUT THEN I FORGOT THAT SUKUNA IS LITERALLY JUST SLEAZY YUJI AND 🫠 normalize blaming sukuna for everything. also props to maki for pushing aside the absolute disgust that comes with texting fic!gojo for yn’s wellbeing if it were me i would’ve started puking blood the moment i pulled up his contact.

thank you for another incredible update (as usual). i find it admirable that despite the truckload of stuff you had going on that you still made time for an update. and not to overstep but while ur regular updates are greatly appreciated, i think i (and many more) would not mind if you needed to slow down or take a break :) also i’m sorry i didn’t realise how long this gotten but oh well hehe i hope you have nothing but the world’s best naps after this!

every time i see an ask from you i get the happiest lightest feeling one can get from reading anything. you unruined my day as much as i have unruined yours so thank you <3

yes!! who cares about reading too much into it!! because THEY SURE AS HELL AREN’T FR like i think even though they have their own conflicting feelings (that the other doesn't know about or even remembers 😭) that they still prioritize their friendship even though they're not aware of how important it is to them :( they have a very deep sense of care for each other that drives them both a bit intensely especially because of how unused to that feeling they are, too 😭 getou being upset as soon as he saw yns tweet (to the point where he publicized it 🙄) and reaching out, yn letting him in and letting him help her cheer up. toge most definitely was rolling his eyes, but he had to bc maki wasn't there.

HELPPP NOT THE SUKUNA COMMENT!@!#N!LK#N no bc tbh you really CAN BLAME EVERYTHING ON HIM!!! he hasn't even shown up yet and you can blame him i swear :) and yes!! maki would literally walk through fire for yn bc of their friendship throughout high school. they've been through thick and thin together and even though maki comes off a bit harsh and y/n a bit frustrating, they love each other regardless.

thank you for your kind words! you're not overstepping dw :) i try to keep a healthy mindset about updating (i'm pretty fine with setting boundaries over the internet and stepping away when i need to) but i really wanted to give you guys the next update! i think my life should settle down over the next few weeks so they should resume at a semi-normal pace. sleep well!

[veenxys]

hi aelin! may i get “dancing under the stars or kissing in the rain” with shiggy or bakugo?

either one of the prompts & characters is fine by me <3 ily take ur time muah

𓂃 ʚ ʿ prompt list! (closed)

bakugou couldn't be angrier right now.

he wanted everything to be perfect, for every little moment and detail of that day to be perfect and memorable for the rest of your lives. but unfortunately, he forgot to look at the weather forecast.

he muttered curses as he looked through the door of the restaurant you two were in as if that would ease the rain. and he just swears more as he notices the rain getting heavier and heavier.

he curses himself for not bringing an extra jacket because he gave his to you and he can't hide that he's cold too. he hates himself for not bringing his umbrella, and he hates this stupid rain even more.

you can see his anger and frustration because honestly, anyone could tell from his facial expression and the way he muttered something no one understood; you knew he was holding back so he wouldn't scream or break something. you take his arm gently and give him a light squeeze, as if to say "it's ok, it's not your fault" but he doesn't understand. he thinks he could have changed something.

you were having fun, or rather, are having fun. the day was amazing and it won't just be a moment that will ruin everything you two witnessed during the day. but unfortunately, bakugou doesn't believe that.

so you just open the restaurant door and walk out. he widens his eyes and tries to grab your arm but you're too quick to run into the rain. your clothes and hair quickly getting soaked as you twisted and swayed in the rain; like a happy child.

bakugou freezes in place. he doesn't know what to do as he watches you jump in puddles or spin around like you're dancing in a ballroom. he doesn't know what to do, he doesn't know whether to call you crazy or the most amazing person he's ever met.

you look back and smile slightly before running over to him. you give him your hand and for a moment, a whirlwind of thoughts fills his head, but quickly, his mind goes blank and he can only see you. you all soaked, you with a silly smile on your face, you. the most important person in his life. the person of his dreams.

when he realizes, he's already in the cold rain with you. he doesn't know what to do; just watch you dance and jump like there's no tomorrow. you take his hand and pull him towards you, bringing your bodies together as you wrap your arms around his neck. he put an arm around your waist and leans his forehead against yours as raindrops wet both of you entirely. you smile and he smiles back because he can't stop thinking how cliche this is. and how perfect that day was again.

he holds your face with his free hand and kisses you. an eager, passionate kiss that he's been waiting for the right moment to give you, but there's no better time to kiss the love of his life than under the rain, with the people at the restaurant looking at the two of you; some smiling for your love and others calling you crazy. but well, he doesn't mind being crazy for you.

you hold his face with both hands as his hand returns to your waist, pulling you even closer to him. you smile during the kiss; with foreheads still touching, he whispers against your lips "i love you, i really do.. but i won't take care of you sick ass tomorrow"

[koushou]

pairing : megumi x f!reader [fluff]

warnings : slight makeout scene idk HAHA nothing too intense though (also not proofread because i wanted to get this posted as soon as i finished it)

wc : 3.5k

a/n : ur too sweet omg and im FINALLY back from procrastinating your request again anon… (i really apologize i don’t mean to take so long pls forgive me D: ) i hope this is what you wanted!!

pt. 1 (you don’t really have to read pt 1 to understand this part but i do recommend it)

loud chatter echoes through the large modern dining hall located on the second floor of the hotel.

“i’m… so full…” a certain pink haired male burps for the nth time as he still continues to stuff food into his mouth. gojo laughs at itadori’s passion for the hotel food, while doing the same as he takes a large bite of a pancake.

you chuckle, taking a sip of your drink and leaning back in your cushioned chair, already finished with your 3rd plate of breakfast. i mean, who could blame you? hotel breakfast food just hits a different type of way.

“so, spill all the juicy events that happened last night, i wanna know!” nobara nudges you excitedly, her eyes twinkling as she pulls her chair closer to yours.

rolling your eyes, you look away from the ginger female and pretend to not have heard her. accidentally, you were now faced towards megumi, sitting on the opposite side of you. your eyes met for a brief moment before you quickly turned away, breaking the awkward interaction.

“aww— c’mon, y/n! please—“

“nothing happened at all! and don’t think i forgot the way you ignored my knocks on your door yesterday,” you shot her a glare, earning a sheepish laugh in return.

“but... in the same bed..?”

you were about to retort back when gojo stands up and claps his hand over his stomach, which now seemed just… a few sizes bigger.

“alright! have we all finished our food? god, when did hotel food get so good— anyway, it’s time to pack our things and head back home!” your constantly enthusiastic teacher exclaims, as a waiter comes to collect your plates.

after thanking the waiter and paying the bill (poor gojo-sensei’s wallet), you all head back upstairs to drive back home.

a thick silence hangs over your room as you and megumi collect your items, not wanting to bring up any events from last night. finally ready to head out, you walk towards the door to open it until another hand reaches the handle at the same time.

you retract your hand quickly, while the other hand lingers in the air above the knob.

“oh— sorry, you can go first!” you gulp, backing up a bit so megumi can exit first.

he pauses for a second, twisting the knob until the door pulls open. you expected him to walk out, but he makes his way to the other side of you instead, still holding the door open.

you look over at him with a questioning look, receiving a slight shrug and a hint of a smirk.

“ladies first.”

why was his stupid face so handsome?

you shook your head at his teasing expression, making your way out the door to the carpeted hallway, him following close behind.

the others were already at the lobby waiting, their conversation becoming clearer as you reach them.

“what’s taking them both so long? you don’t think they’re too busy… y’know…” nobara’s usual cheerful voice carries her words to your ears, making you roll your eyes and spook her from being.

“boo.”

“i’m just sayin- oh my go—“ she frantically turns around, breathing a sigh of relief upon seeing it was just you.

“you scared me!”

“what were we talking about?”

“nothing important! come on, we should get going!” nobara nudges gojo and itadori ahead, escaping you as she scurries out of the lobby.

you hear a yawn from behind you, a tuft of black hair moving past you as you suppress the urge to laugh at megumi’s already messy hairstyle, amplified by his morning bed hair.

finally, you were all seated back in gojo’s car, ready to drive back to the school so you all can head back to your own homes.

the ride back was full of gojo’s irritating voice singing along to songs playing from the car radio, itadori laughing along, and the rest of you too excited to leave the car.

“alright kids! we’re here, make sure to be safe on the way back home!”

gojo waves to all of you as you hop out of his car one by one, basking in the cool summer air for a few seconds.

“see you guys!”

itadori jogs away, heading in the direction of his own home, followed by megumi, then nobara, and lastly, you.

upon reaching your house, your mother welcomes you, asking about your day, if you had fun, and other typical mother questions.

you were telling her about your day when you suddenly recalled the hotel night events, and scurried away embarrassed upstairs to your room, leaving a very confused mom behind.

you flop down onto the bed, face down, wanting to get a good few minutes of quiet nap time in before your phone dings with a notification.

grunting, you pull your phone out from your pocket, swiping across the screen to check the message.

surprisingly, it was from megumi, eyebrows suspiciously raising as you open the text message from him. you two rarely texted unless it was about school or business-related, so you couldn’t think of anything he would need from you right now.

megumi : Hey.

megumi : I have your hair tie with me. You probably left it in my bag or something.

megumi : I’m coming over in 5 minutes.

you sat up abruptly, rereading his messages to make sure your eyes weren’t playing tricks on you.

you had been so caught up with his prior messages that you failed to register that he said he was going to be at your house in… 5 minutes.

hurriedly, you swiped to see what time he had sent that last message. 12:34 AM.

your eyes moved to the top of your phone screen, reading the current time. 12:37 AM.

almost falling out of bed scrambling to your room mirror, you checked your appearance to make sure you looked fine and your hair wasn’t messy and-

you paused.

“why am i so concerned about how i look? why do i care about this?”

you slapped your face with both hands, bringing yourself back to reality when you were interrupted again, but this time by your doorbell ringing from downstairs.

making your way out of your room, you saw that your mom had already opened the door with a familiar tall figure standing in the doorway.

“oh! megumi, it’s been a while!” your mom lets megumi in with a smile, already going to the kitchen to make him some tea.

he bows politely, sitting down on the couch, now changed into a loose white t-shirt with black shorts.

“uh- theres no need to make me tea, i won’t be here for too long—“

“nonsense! you can even stay for lunch, dear megumi! i just have to prepare the last dish and—“

you finally clear your throat, standing at the middle of the stairs, catching both of their attention.

“oh, y/n! i have to go out to the grocery store for some ingredients, take care of our guest megumi, alright?” she places two cups of tea on the table in front of megumi, grabbing her keys to head out.

“wait, mom—“

she sends you a wink by the door, already outside before you can finish your sentence.

you sigh in defeat, sitting across from megumi on the other couch.

“here.”

megumi pulls out a black hair tie from his pocket, almost identical to the one currently around your wrist.

you raise your eyebrows in suspicion at the hair tie. “but i only have one? and i didn’t bring any extra yesterday..?” you motion to your own arm.

he looks back and forth between your wrist and the one he had in his hand, scratching his head in confusion.

“it was in our hotel room, so i assumed it was yours.” he shrugs, placing it on the table. “but if it isn’t, i can just throw it away.”

you hum, taking a sip of the tea your mom prepared as he does the same, cringing as the still hot tea burns his tongue.

“pfft…”

he glares at you, placing the cup down as his eyes scan around your living room, taking in the decorations.

“i’ll just keep it then, it seems new.” you take the forgotten hair tie on the table, and wear it around your wrist, now decorated with two black hair ties.

he nods, sitting back against the couch, silence falling between you both.

a question suddenly popped up in your mind, your mouth moving faster than your brain.

“you came all the way here… just to give me a hair tie?”

the question seems to set him a little nervous, clearing his throat and avoiding eye contact as he fidgets in his seat.

“well— i figured i’d return it to you before i forgot,” he shrugs, reaching out to take another sip of his tea before pulling back quickly again at the heat.

you nod slowly, still unconvinced with his answer. who goes all the way to someone’s house to return a hair tie?

“okay then, see you on monday?” you get up, ready to send him back off.

his head snaps up, still not moving in his seat as he opens his mouth slowly, as if unsure of how to respond.

“um- i thought your mom said i could stay…for lunch…?”

he averts his eyes, pink dusting his pale cheeks as he looks away. your mouth forms into an ‘o’ shape as you recall your mom’s words and those were - in fact what she had said.

it wasn’t that you were against him staying for lunch, but you two weren’t even friends or remotely close at that. rivals would even suit you both better than friends.

“but if you want i can, uh, leave now,” he starts to stand, looking uncomfortable in his position across from you.

it was then that you remembered megumi’s background, that his mother had left early at birth, plus his father wasn’t exactly present.

you couldn’t imagine living without your parents, and how lonely he must be without true family.

“no! i mean, that’s not what i meant, you can stay.” you sputter out before he gets the wrong idea.

his eyes seem to light up at your words, nodding before sitting back down on his previous spot on the couch.

you glance over at the time on your phone, it had been around 7 minutes after your mom had left.

the tension was thick in the room, and just when you thought you were about to explode from the awkwardness, he finally breaks the silence.

“do you… play that?”

you turn to where his eyes are placed on, seeing your black xbox console laying on top of a cabinet, having been untouched for a while.

“oh that? yeah, occasionally, why?”

you hear a snicker from beside you, snapping your head to find his lips curled into a teasing grin.

“oh, i just didn’t think a nerd like you would play games.”

you raise your eyebrows at his words. “you sure about that? it doesn’t seem like you’re very good at games either, megumi.” you make sure to stretch out each three syllables of his name to tease him further.

he huffs while leaning back, still maintaining intense eye contact with you, almost challenging each other to say something back.

“how about this, whoever wins against the other gets to make them do whatever they want. no matter what it is.” he nods over to the console, tilting his head as he waits for your response.

you chuckle, standing up to take the console, fiddling with it for a moment before turning back to him.

“alright, just don’t cry when you lose too much, okay?”

he shrugs, smirking as he looks around the living room for the other console, making you remember something.

“oh, the other console plus a TV is in my room, wanna just play there?”

he stiffens suddenly, before nodding slowly and following you upstairs to your room.

reaching the door, you suddenly stop, making megumi grunt and come to a stop, almost crashing into you.

“uh - wait here.”

you open the door just enough to slip inside, quickly gathering some of your belongings and cleaning as much as you could, to at least make your room seem presentable.

“okay!” you open the door for megumi, who makes no move to enter at first.

“...”

“you can come in.”

“... is this okay?”

you cock your head, not understanding his question.

“your mom isn’t home.”

“...so?”

“we’re alone.”

“and?”

“i’m… going into your room.”

“what is your point?” you began to grow frustrated at this conversation. then, it hit you all of a sudden.

“ahh, megumi? have you never been in a girl’s room alone before?” you snicker, shaking your head from laughter.

he starts to protest, before quickly closing his mouth and finally entering your room.

you connect the two consoles into your TV in your room, sitting down on the edge of your bed as you load up the games on the screen.

“you can sit here if you want,” you pat the empty spot next to you, to which he carefully sits down on, taking one console from your hand.

“ready?”

he nods, as you start the game.

-- --

“what--?!”

you throw your hands up in frustration, groaning as you flop backwards on the bed.

“i told you, you can’t beat me.” megumi chuckles, dodging a stuffed bear you threw in his direction.

you huffed, sitting back up, determined to beat him at least once.

“one last rematch!”

he lets out a laugh, a rare one that you think you might just never forget, and starts the game again.

after a few minutes of intense clicking, yelling and laughing, you let out a proud shout, the word victory flashing across your screen.

you pick up another stuffed animal from your bed and toss it straight at megumi’s face, celebrating as he lets out an ‘oof’ and glare back at you.

“but i still won around, 7 times, so i get to make you do something- oof-” he stumbles back again from another stuffed animal to the face.

“hmm? i don’t know what you’re talking about--” you pretend to not have heard him before your vision goes momentarily black from a soft object hitting your face, a pink bear landing in your lap.

“hey!”

“what, you keep throwing them at me!”

“fine…”

“hey, why are you getting so close--!”

you tackle megumi backwards onto the bed, throwing your pillows at his face -- not very gently -- as he tries to shield his arms in vain.

“ahh—! okay, okay, i’m sorry, stop it—“ he huffs as you finally stops your attack, his dark blue orbs looking up into yours.

you only now noticed your close proximity, quickly sitting back up to create some distance between the both of you. he clears his throat, fiddling with one of your pillows.

“well, a loss is a loss, what do i have to do?” you sigh, admitting your defeat.

“hmm…” he seems to be lost in deep thought, probably trying to find the worst thing he can make you do.

after a few silent, intense seconds, he finally speaks.

“are you… free tomorrow?”

you turn to him, giving him a questioning look at his strange question. he only stares back at you in response, awaiting your answer.

“um… yeah, i’m free the whole day, why do you as-“

“come watch a movie with me tomorrow.” he blurts out quickly, not even letting you finish your sentence.

you gape at him, still processing his words, unsure if you had heard wrong.

“... sorry?”

his face was reddenning by the second, yet his eyes remained firmly on yours the whole time.

“let’s go watch the new movie in the theater. i heard it’s quite popular already despite releasing only last week.”

“oh… okay, i can ask nobara if she wants to com-“

“don’t!” he says a little too loudly, clearing his throat after as he regains his composure.

“i mean, i- just, you.”

“just.. us?”

he nods.

silence fell again between the two of you, unsure if he was asking you what you thought he was asking you. you decide to test the waters cautiously.

“man.. it’s almost like you’re asking me out on a date, megumi?” you tease lightly, expecting a ‘tch’ or an, ‘as if’.

“so what if i am?”

now that was an answer you weren’t expecting.

“you’re.. joking, right?”

megumi sighs, moving closer until his body was mere centimeters away from yours.

“i’m serious.”

“do you... like me or something?”

he stares at you blankly. “would i ask you on a date if i didn’t have feelings for you, idiot?”

you only just realize how stupid your question sounded, trying to find a response until he reaches up to cup your cheek with one hand.

they felt soft, yet slightly gruff from constant training and fighting, large enough to cover one half of your face. they were warm, slightly trembling probably from nervousness, yet made you wish he’d never take it off.

“it’s okay if you don’t want to. we can forget this ever happened.” his own cheeks turning slightly pink, yours probably even worse as the space between your faces closed in slowly.

“but i don't think i can do this anymore, so just let me be a little selfish this once, okay?”

barely registering his words before he moves in to kiss you, soft lips moving against the other as his hand tightens against the side of your cheek. you barely register your own actions anymore, hands reaching up to tangle themselves in his hair, moving down to his neck, and finally finding home cupped around his face.

he groans against your lips, pressing you down until he was now hovering above you, never breaking the kiss even once in the process. you lost track of how long you both had been making out in your bed before you hear the front door open from downstairs.

frantically, the both of you separated in fear of your mom catching you in the act, catching your breaths while still processing what just happened.

you hear shuffling from downstairs, standing up to escape megumi before you were pulled back into a warm chest.

“wait—“ his arms wrap around you to trap you from leaving his grasp, your eyes looking everywhere but his, and suddenly your wall was the most interesting thing in sight.

“are we… really going to pretend that didn’t happen?” you finally gather the courage to look him in the face, almost melting at the soft pout set on his (now slightly redder than before) lips.

“ilikeyoutoo.” you get out quickly before you lose the chance to say it again.

he stiffens against you, eyes lighting up almost like an excited puppy receiving treats. “you like me? i didn’t hear you, so can you say it again?”

you huff, trying to wriggle your way out of his arms, only resulting in him pulling you closer to sit on his lap. he presses his forehead to yours, chuckling at your futile attempt to escape.

“i said— i like you—!” you ram your head into his, making him groan in pain, loosening his hold on you. the perfect chance for escape.

you saw the opportunity, dashing to the door, twisting the knob, almost getting it open until—

“nope,” megumi’s hand stops the door in time, instead twisting you around until your back was now flat against the wood, both of his palms placed beside your head.

“y/n? megumi?” your mom’s voice calls from downstairs, but all you could hear was your heartbeat thumping loudly in your chest.

“megumi! move, my mom’s home,” you place your hands on his chest, trying to push him away to no avail.

he grabs your pushing hand and places it on the left side of his chest, letting you feel the soft but fast thumping of his heart, almost matching the pace of your own.

“this is all your fault. you’re not gonna take responsibility for it?” he inches closer to your burning face, making you huff and grab his face.

you press your lips to his, feeling him immediately return the kiss, but you pull away after a few seconds, leaving him still trying to kiss you again.

“nope, my mom’s home, and i’m hungry.”

you open the door, seeing your mom begin to set the table with plates of food downstairs. you look back at megumi, who still looked sad after getting his kiss cut short.

sighing, you take his hand in yours, intertwining your fingers together before pulling him down the stairs.

“come on, it’s time for lunch. you’ll get more later.”

you feel him perk up, giving your hand a squeeze as he follows close behind.

you steal a glance at your wrist, still wearing both the hair ties. good thing he hadn’t noticed you stuffing one into his bag this morning.

🔖 writings and such - haikyuu scenario

ways they will try to cheer u up

some silly ways the haikyuu boys would try to cheer u up as i had a bad week and wanted to feel comforted lmao

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

characters : bokuto kōtarō, oikawa tōru, miya osamu, iwaizumi hajime and miya atsumu

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

bokuto kōtarō

he will literally sprint to ur house the second u messaged him with “it’s getting bad again”. the moment u opened ur door to greet him and he saw u had been crying, he makes it his own personal mission to bring back ur smile. he thought of something completely random, but he knows u will comply anyway. he takes ur hand and drags u to the nearest playground. it’s already quite late so u two were the only once. he takes u to the swing and let’s u sit on it as he then started to push u lightly, while simultaneously singing the chorus of one of ur favorite songs. before he knew it, u were singing along and asked him to push a little harder. he did so without complaint of course and u told him how grateful u are to have him by ur side. his smile could cure anything as he gave u one of his infamous radiating once. he kept on pushing and singing until he saw ur worries go away little by little and u start to smile again. he will ask u later what’s been bothering u, but for now his goal of cheering u up is more important

oikawa tōru

u’ve been distancing ur self more and more from him and he noticed that u stopped taking care of ur appearance. u kept on saying how he should be with someone as pretty as him and he never quite understood that, cause to him u are the most prettiest person and hearing u say such things about urself hurts him to hear. that’s why he decided to surprise u with an at home spa day to try to cheer u up. having the benefit of having an older sister, he knows exactly what kind of products to shop for at the drugstore. when he later came over that day with two bags full of products and snacks, u were surprised and also confused to say the least. he told u not worry about it, as he made work of creating an improv spa of ur room. the whole day, he kept on showering u with compliments of ‘how lucky he is with someone as beautiful and kindhearted as u in his life’ and ‘how u never fail to give him butterflies’. ur heart felt full with how much love and affection he was giving u that u tackled him into a hug. he was shocked at first, until he started to giggle and hugged u back as tightly while carding his hand through ur hair

miya osamu

not the type to bake, but he knows that u like it. so when he noticed that u’ve been feeling down, he proposed the idea to bake. it’s not that he doesn’t know how to bake, but he prefers to cook more. he searched up an recipe that is both simple but also fun to make and came up with an recipe for strawberry shortcake. everything went well, so well actually he almost forgot how clumsy u could be. almost. u were given the task to crack the eggs, but u wanted to show ‘samu that u could do it with one hand. one thing let to another and u ended up with egg residue on ur clothes and the mixing bowl on the floor. u both stared at the bowl on the floor for a few seconds, until u both started to laugh like two hyenas. it was so loud, ‘tsumu got kinda scared and ran upstairs to their shared bedroom. after that, u both decided ‘fuck it’ and went to the bakery to buy a strawberry shortcake, which u enjoyed together while talking about todays events. u intertwined the hand that was on top of the table with his and gave him a gentle smile. he did the same as he squeezed ur hand. he was the one who made u forget about ur worries and for that u were truly thankful

iwaizumi hajime

he refuses to let u hole urself up in ur room to mope around and he convinces (more like bribed u with snacks) to go on a hiking trip with him, claiming that going outside will help ease ur mind. u didn’t believe him, but honestly u would do anything for snacks and what more did u have to lose anyway. he helped u pick out a suitable comfy outfit and let’s u change as he prepared two bentos and enough water. after that he took u to his favorite hiking trail, the one which ends at a look-out spot at the top of a mountain, that shows the whole city beneath. u forgot how breathtaking nature truly is as u made ur way up. somewhere half way u got tired and he offered to piggyback ride u the remaining miles. when u both got at the look-out spot he laid out a blanket and u got to have a picknick together, while admiring the view. the peaceful look u have on ur face while ur eyes are closed, enjoying the fresh air and rays of sunlight, made him feel accomplished for trying to cheer u up. when u told him how thankful u are, he brought ur head onto his shoulder and gave u a forehead kiss as he proceeded to place his own head onto urs while closing his eyes. both enjoying each others company

miya atsumu

he knows that u can be quite the overthinker, especially in regards to the future. life can either go really slow or really fast and u can feel like ur losing control. he himself can’t really understand how u can overthink about stuff like that, as he’s the kind to live at the days moment. anyways, he still wants to cheer u up and he thought the best way to do that is to make u feel like a kid again. yes u heard him right, a pillow fort. the moment u came over at the miya resident, u were shocked to see such a big ass pillow fort. there were SO MANY PILLOWS AND BLANKETS, almost half of the living room was occupied. inside the fort there was a diversity of snacks and drinks and one of ur favorite studio ghibli movies played on the laptop. he also took the effort to decorate the fort with different fairy lights to give it a cosy feel. he claimed that he did it all himself, but knowing him he bribed ‘samu to help him. either way, u appreciated the gesture a lot as u kissed him on the cheek and hugged him tightly to thank him. he’s happy u had ur face buried into his chest so u couldn’t see his blush as he kissed the crown of ur head and held u as tight

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
