[todomitoukei]

Got tagged by @haleigh-sloth and @xpromethiosx thank you <3

Why did you choose your URL?

Because dbhx was really big when I joined the fandom so my blog was mainly that and at this point, it would be too much of an effort to change it lol

Any side blogs?

Well, this is a sideblog! My main is @lightxhearted

How long have you been on tumblr

It was my 10 year anniversary on here last month.... *long sigh*

Do you have a queue tag?

Not exactly, but I usually put the art I reblog in the queue so I guess technically that is my queue tag?

Why did you start your blog in the first place?

I think one of my friends introduced me to it but it's been too long to remember any details.

Why did you choose your icon/pfp

It's Dabi for obvious reasons and then I also just really like transparent icons so now it looks like he's grabbing the posts >:)

Why did you choose your header?

If there is one good thing that has come out of bnha and the official English translation, it's Dabilingual and @/redphlox post was too funny not to use<3

What’s your post with the most notes?

This post of Saiki K. referencing Momo's quirk lmao

How many mutuals do you have?

I never counted. But a few and they are all amazing :)

How many followers do you have?

This is gonna be a lame-ass answer, but one of my favorite parts about tumblr is that you can't see other blog's follower count so... it shall remain a secret ;)

How many people do you follow

Way too many (671) - keep in mind that I've been on here for over a decade now so a bunch of those blogs are probably not even active anymore, but I can't be bothered to go through all of them. I just unfollow blogs now if they suddenly become active again and post stuff I don't care about anymore.

How often do you use tumblr each day?

Too much lol. I have a lot of free time at my job at the moment and Tumblr is the only social media app I actively use so when I'm trying to not use my brain and just pass the time, that's what I end up doing.

Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

Pretty sure I've only argued with anons but I've had anon turned off for a while now so not even that. I'm more of a mind-your-own-business person, so if I see a blog I disagree with I block them.

How do you feel about “you need to reblog this posts”

I ignore them.

Do you like tag games?

I do if they seem interesting (some of them get repetitive) But also sometimes I forget to do them rip

Do you like ask games?

Definitely!

Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

@/transhawks and @/thyandrawrites for sure lol, but also I'm not sure at what point someone would be considered tumblr famous?

Do you have a crush on a mutual?

Nope, they're all friend-shaped though<3

how long have you been on tumblr?

since the start of 2015 maybe ???? i had another account but deleted it and started fresh on here at the end of 2016. LMAO it started as a twd and yuri on ice blog khjhfdlsh my blog archive is so funny sometimes i look at it and laugh

do you have a queue tag?

hhahaha noooo. LMAOOOOOO vee’s answer is pretty much the same as me sldfhlakjhd i only recently figured out how the even do it and i think i prefer to reblog a million things at once ,,,, however i have been known to schedule things every now and then kasdfhlkjhd

why did you start your blog in the first place?

i started this once bc i think i took a break from tumblr for like a week after i deleted my old one but i missed it AJHDKJAHSjfhkdjhlk

why did you choose your icon/pfp?

omg zuko limp wrist angry gay icon !!! i’ve had this icon for uhhhhh maybe like 2 weeks now ?? originally i think i found the screenshot in someone’s twitter replies but the other day i giffed and coloured the little scene and took a screenshot from that and now this one is a bit more RED !! but yeah leo @thisisagaysonlyevent sums it up when he described zuko as my main girl and yeah <3

why did you choose your header?

omg zuko limp wrist angry gay icon !!! but yeah !! it used to just be that screenshot but i giffed it the other day <3333 i love it so much sometimes i just stare at my blog and watch him move hahaha

what’s your post with the most notes?

oh hahahahah i think its an umbrella academy one about klaus being gay and not being able to drive LMFAO. i kind of hate the post KJHDLJHFJHDskjdh it was a notes grab i will admit

how many people do you follow?

as of 11/6/2021 i follow 389 people kjshdflkjshdfkjhd i used to follow like 1000+ ,,,,,, but i was always missing my beloved mutuals’ posts so i cut it down sjdhflh the only downside is that the dash gets really really dead certain times of the day 

have you ever made a shitpost?

lmao i think it is my brand

how often do you use tumblr?

stop OMG skjhflkjhadskjfh this is so embarrassing ,,,, like a lot. its my main social media hahahah. i used to use instagram and tumblr equally but not so much anymore ,,,,

did you have a fight/argument with a blog once? who won?

LMAO vee’s answer to this made me laugh so hard bc SAME. i have never fought with people online for real but ive had dreams about it to HAAHHAHAHAH i’m crazy

how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this post’?

hmmmm it depends – i don’t like the condescending or guilt tripping ones

do you like tag games?

yes i do and i appreciate every single tag ive had but im a terrible person and procrastinate them. ive got a lot in my drafts from like months ago which i will get around to one day im sorry <3

which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous? 

lmao this year ive learnt that SO MANY of my mutuals are famous kjshdflhsdf its actually so crazy i didn’t know people could have that many followers on tumblr KJKDLJSHFKJHF. also ahhaha vee said that she think im famous which sajkfhdljhdf i will say this year i’ve like doubled the amount of followers i had this time last year but servingcunt is still pretty niche underground if you know you know grungecore pickle rick kafkaesque et cetera et cetera

do you have a crush on a mutual? 

im for real in love with all my mutuals <3 ily

[iampikachuhearmeroar]

sometime in this last week, or this week coming, my blog has turned/turns 10. god. a decade old. a whole ass chunk of my life i’ve spent on this hellsite. when i began on here, i was a kid. a lost, lonely, depressed and anxious 15/16 year old kid. a kid scared of her future. a kid confused about her future. what to do for uni. to change schools or not??? to do drama/acting at uni or english/philosophy or to move 8hrs away to another regional uni to “escape” her “washed up, dead end hometown” that was so typical of all the pop-punk music that she was listening to at the time.

she was a tad overdramatic, loud, “funny” (as described by her school friends) and terribly forgetful in regards to homework and school assignments. she was angry at the world, most especially the catholic school she was fucking sick and tired of attending. but she was convinced that since she was the so-called “funny girl”, that she simply couldn’t be depressed or anxious. she believed herself unloveable because she didn’t look like a weird mixture of hayley williams and emo-pop queen lights. but now, i no longer believe that i have to look like the women that i looked up to in the ~emo scene~. fuck beauty standards. i am loveable.

in the years since joining tumblr, i’ve managed to get through business college, my undergrad degree and, well, failed out of postgrad due to obvious burnout and health issues amongst other things. although i’ve lost many friends irl and many followers/mutuals online on here. for those who’ve stuck around to see me get through all of this, thank you. to all the friends/casual mutuals that have since deactivated or only followed me for a short time then unfollowed; thank you.

like obviously i was never/have never been a massive popular blog on here, like thebootydiaries or vampireapologist (who has since deactivated a couple of months ago) with tens of thousands of followers. my follower count is still close to the 8,000 range at 7,892. obviously that’s still a lot of people (and of course, porn bots lmao and many, many non-active blogs), enough like one super old post from like 2012 tumblr pointed out, enough for a small to medium sized city or town, or something like that. i don’t know how many people i’ve really reached. i really don’t know how i actually amassed this small army of people.

i am aware though, that on other platforms like snapchat (lmao does anyone even use it anymore in 2021???)/instagram/youtube/tiktok etc, i’d PROBABLY be considered as some type of ~micro influencer (🤮🤮)~. hell, i actually had a bot slide into my notes about being one on here on this hellsite back in 2019. i don’t know if i’ve ever actually ~influenced~ anyone on here with my shitposts (when i started making some) or my personal posts. i don’t know my reach. even though, now, i do occasionally get featured on buzzfeed listicles (although pay me buzzfeed along with the OPs of those original embedded posts), i still don’t know how many people i’ve reached… and even with my very occasional checks of google analytics lmao. on top of this, grappling with the loss of followers at times is much, much easier than it was when i began on here and the first few years following that. i know that my follower count doesn’t determine my worth and stuff.

but over these 10 years, i have grown. i turn 26 this year. back in 2011, 15/16yo me never thought she’d be here. she was partially down the suicidal thoughts hole, with things about ~picturing her funeral and wondering who’d bother to turn up. if only she could pretend to be dead for a day to see who’d give a fuck~ and 16-18yo me was defs down it with her HSC hellscape thoughts in 2012/2013. that 3rd floor tafe/tech women’s bathroom window drop and the thought of scarring her class for life (and that cool dude from catholic school that she crushed on who ended up at tafe with her) with jumping out of it onto the concrete below. instead, she just posted on fb about ~being a failure~ etc which ultimately did lose her a bunch of facebook friends lmao. it was practically the same thing. her mental breakdown after the end of her hsc, where she let her earrings go green and get infected in her ears because “fuck self care, bc what the fuck is it??? i’ll never get better! let me fucking wallow in my self loathing bc it’s the only thing that i’m fucking good at!!!” so i no longer have my ears pierced. oh! it was just all too fucking much!!

i am happier today. i no longer have those semi-suicidal thoughts. hell, i almost died in 2020 from a fucking bowel aneurysm, after my stomach tumour excision surgery. that forced me to put things into perspective. i appreciate the little things . i appreciate the very few friends that i actually have. yes. i’m still depressed and anxious. some days are still shitty and hard. but nowhere as hard and shitty as they were back when i began on here 10 years ago.

how the fuck last 10 years have gone past, with my ass on here; clearing out my blog and caring more about doing that than my uni work (lmao whoops); having made some lifelong friends both internationally (from the US) and long distance domestically in australia, it’s been a long ride; i honestly have no fucking idea. obviously over these past 10 years, i’ve debated with myself over and over and over again whether i should delete/deactivate this account or not. would it make me healthier??? more than likely. but then when i have meltdowns or just inner ramblings i have to get out somewhere, where else to post??? on fb?? obvs not. it’s “attention seeking” or the like on there. no one will read them. no one will resonate. but on here??? even if i got/get one “like” in the notes or one “yo i feel this” response in the tags or replies, it feels like i’ve reached someone??? okay yeah. i know this place IS NOT therapy and i’m not using my followers as amateur (or probs even actual professional) armchair psychologists…. which is a thing i think people need to stop doing internet-wide: but that’s a whole other post that i reblogged a few days ago lmao. i really need to get another therapist, actually lmao.

but it’s the community i’ve found hard to leave. i have what feel like friends, when i’ve never been employed (still as of yet); and when all of my irl friends/acquaintances are working and doing the whole ~adulting~ and ~grown up life~ thing right. it’s also the frenzied rabidness of spite with hating staff’s godawful ideas. the memes. oh the memes. and also the RaWrInG 20s XD emo scene reemergence on here that’s kept me here. the messy petty drama from time to time of big blogs fighting it out.

this place really is bizarre and fun sometimes. and also the fact that i can still hide behind the ridiculous “roaring pikachu” URL that i made all those years ago. i am anonymous. it’s freeing. but on fb it’s all like “WHY WONT YOU ADD A BANNER IMAGE AND TELL US 20 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOU!!!!!???? LET PEOPLE WHO HAVENT SPOKEN TO YOU IN 10 YEARS KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU BECAUSE WE’RE ALL FRIENDS HERE!!!” and the same goes for Corporate Hellscape Facebook™️ (linkedin) but in the professional sense instead. y’all know fuck all about me really. besides my posts. and i love that and live for that. okay yeah. y’all know more about my mental health than my fb feed obvs… which is probably a terribly unfortunate thing. but still.

over the last 10 years then, my superiority complex for being ~so original and intelligent~ or whatever the fuck i had in high school, has all but ebbed away. i’m not that smart just because i went to uni. hell, i literally did NONE of my in-class work and none of my philosophy readings in uni….. so i have fuck all idea of how i got through undergrad like that lmao. i’m not original when so many people can articulate the same thoughts that i have, but like, sometimes better, on a post (even though sometimes/most of the time the Tumblr User Hot Takes Tuesday™️ takes on here are fucking awful lmao). but still. originality is not something i really have anymore. or really had in the first place lmao.

so will i deactivate after these 10 years, like i’ve been saying for so, so long??? i honestly have no idea. but just know. thanks guise. have a nice gpoy selfie day XD. grab your wands. your tardises. grab your war paint. grab your whatever the fuck other fandom specific stuff that was one that hella cringe post from 2011 til 2015 random tumblr. that relic is as old as time itself. just as this mysterious roaring pikachu is for someone whose too loyal to leave this W E B B E D H E L L S I T E that’s just as much of a train wreck as she is. lmao.

[huenjin]

2020 year end greetings.

disclaimer: this is going to be very long ( ˶ ❛ ꁞ ❛ ˶ ), but that's how much gratitude i have and so much more of love.

2020. ah, this year was a very emotional journey for me and how i wish i could sing jessi's gucci all throughout. however, that was not the case. tumblr helped me run away from all those irl miseries. these people made me feel at home.

this skz writing blog has been existing from the last few days of september and it came to life when i was losing motivation to write on my main (which i closed down because stray kids made me like writing back again) and it's stayed since then. you guys have stayed since then. grateful, a one hundred times and more.

so, this is rue, getting sappy and so much more thankful for everything i have and recieved with this blog. this is rue, asking you to accompany me for a little more and to listen to the stories i have to share. the is rue with heart full of nothing but love for each one of you.

to each one of my mutuals, for whom i pray to the stars to shower you with nothing but fortune —

@sinisterlyhan ♡ eiko, best thing i ever did was hit you up. how are you always so calm? or at least that's the tone i have in my head when i read your texts. it's so pleasant to talk to you. ily. and let me get started on your writing — you've heard this from me like every day but ma'am, you make magic. you lace stars together to form such a beautiful constellation of a writing and i fall in love a little more. thank you for inspiring me to always do better!

🧸 :: put you on the anon list because in my head you are that anon — my very first one and the one that lit up my whole world. it's kind of a very proud moment when someone wants to talk to you. you made me feel that. you made feel loved. and to see how well your blog is doing now, god, i feel like a proud mother.

🐠 :: my greek princess. the fact that i learnt more about breads from you than from my school makes me laugh hehe. you really did light up my world with every ask you sent me and had me unknowingly hope that you are happy in every minute. and now that i know who you are, i'm even more content because you're a mutual too now!

🍧 :: god, you have a special place in my heart, ice cream anon! maybe because you liked me more than my fic and followed me here even though you were an anon from my bts blog. fuck, if that didn't make my heart flutter, nothing ever will! (hush, your relationship is something i am still rooting for!!)

🦊 |🌹| 🥀 | 🛸 :: the way you guys keep checks if i'm staying hydrated and healthy. i am. and even when i wasn't, your asks made me go drink a cup of water ha! thank you for loving me x

tiktok anon :: ♡♡♡♡♡♡ yes idk what else to say to you but that i would give you a piece of my heart. your tiktok asks make my whole day. it's something i look forward too! thank you for always making my day!

and to my other anons, tagged or untagged :: thank you for sending me an ask. every single one, either telling me to stay happy or hydrated, or that my fic was great or that you're feeling extra horny that day (we've all been there!) i appreciate it and thank you for making me smile! x

“I think I’m gonna check,” Jake lightly knocked his knuckles against the wooden table. 

Zoe lifted the corner of her hand. “I raise thirteen.”

The last card was placed onto the table. Last chance to bet. “Twenty-six,” Jake gazed through his eyelashes, raising the bet once again.

Groaning, Zoe threw her cards onto the pile of chips in the middle of the table, two fives staring her in the face. “Fine, you win.”

“As per usual!” Jake laughed as he slapped a pair of kings down in front of him and collected his chips. 

“Jesus! You always get the good hand!” Jake flashed a look of offense. 

“No I do--” He was briskly interrupted.

“Name one time you’ve lost! I bet you cheat.”

Before he could reply, someone walked through the door of the lunch room. “Nick?” Jake’s voice laced in confusion as his smirk dropped.

“Break’s over. We need you both.” 

Startled, the two followed their boss into a briefing room. “What’s the problem?” Zoe asked, leaning against the table. Jake sat down on a chair next to her, kicking his shoes onto the polished wood beside her. He popped some gum in his mouth before undoing his top button of his checked shirt; the two of them opted for a casual office day. Zoe and Nick both declined as he offered them each a piece. “Really? It’s strawberry…”

“Not now, Jake. We have a missing agent. You are two of our best trackers; no one else in the whole department is as… experienced. We need you to find him before it’s too late.” A picture was brought up; blond hair and brown eyes. 

“He was last seen at these coordinates-- get on it.” Nick left the two in silence as he dropped two files on the table and left the room.

Zoe picked one up and slid the other one Jake’s way, hitting his shoes. Sitting straight, he leaned forwards to take a closer look. “I have the agent.”

“I’ve got the leads…” Zoe mumbled with a frown, sifting through the relatively thin file that had been accumulated over the past few days. CCTV screenshots, cases previously solved that could harbour motive for revenge, and a few other documents referring to things she had never seen or heard of before. “Hey, Jake?” 

“Hmm?” He looked up with interest, his chewing paused.

“Have you ever heard of Abstergo Industries?”

There was a silence as he thought. “No; is it one of those massive corporations?”

Zoe’s eyes roamed various images of murder scenes, all having one thing in common; jewellry in the shape of a cross, circled in red ink. “Something like that…”

Did Nick mean for us to see this? It feels classified…

“So his name is Matthew Anderson. Twenty-six, unmarried, single child, no children. There is literally no record of him anywhere; no school record, no criminal record, no family record; nothing. Only things like “Favourite coffee shop”. The man’s an enigma. Why would anyone want to kidnap him? There’s no evidence to justify a ransom or leverage of any sort…”

“It does seem strange, but it might have something to do with this Abstergo place. Let’s go to that coffee shop and see what we can find.”

Jake followed Zoe towards the armory; full of necessary gear and equipment. The pair grabbed what they needed, namely the issued pepper spray and tasers. Their badges waited for them, along with any IDs they may need. “Ready?” Zoe debated bringing a firearm, but decided against it; there was already going to be one in the glovebox. 

All Jake did was wink and smile, donning his jacket. “Always.”

----------

They spent the rest of the afternoon searching for answers in the coffee shop. Social media, local news posts, Police records-- even private databases -- all with the keyword, ‘Abstergo’. Jake left to the counter after a while to buy more coffee for the two of them; their eyes had begun to sting from staring at a screen for so long. Zoe was writing some information down in her notepad when she saw movement out of the corner of her eye. She glanced to see someone dressed  in a grey hoodie and tracksuit bottoms. They had hidden their features under their hood, but Zoe could tell that they were looking in her direction. Hiding behind fallen hair, she rubbed her palms against her jeans. 

Jake returned with her latte, placing it down before sitting to nurse his cappuccino. He noticed how unsettled she had become. “You okay? You look as if you’ve seen a ghost.” After he spoke, he licked the milk mousse moustache from his upper lip. 

Zoe smiled, his actions calming her slightly. “I’m fine,” she said. “It’s just…” She lowered her voice. “There’s a guy over there. He’s just… staring.” Jake quickly flitted his gaze over in that direction and then back at his partner, his head unmoving.

“He is a bit creepy, isn’t he?” he mumbled. “Feel like getting out of here?”

“Please.” Jake left to get takeaway cups as Zoe started clearing the table. 

The sun had already begun to set as they left the coffee shop and got into an unmarked van designed for undercover work. As they were driving down some narrower country lanes, Jake noticed something out of the rearview mirror. “Uh, Zo’?” She hummed in reply from the driver’s seat, preoccupied with the road. “I think someone’s following us.”

“What should we do?” she asked, turning left. For the second time that day, Jake was interrupted. A bullet shattered one of the back windows.

“Not much!” Jake took the pistol out of the glovebox and began firing back.  Zoe stole a glance behind her. 

“Look out!” Jake grabbed the steering wheel and pulled. The wheels veered out of control and the van tumbled. It rolled off the road.

The vehicle eventually stopped, lying capsized on the grass. Footsteps approached the door. “Yeah, boss; we got ‘em,” a gravelly voice stated. Jake, barely conscious, never moved a muscle. “Roger,” the voice said again, and footsteps started to recede. 

“Zoe,” Jake groaned. He got a quiet mumble in response. His nose alerted him to the imminent danger they were in; the smell of petrol. Trying to move, he winced at the sudden throbbing pain in his head.

And his torso.

And his back.

He took a step to remove his seatbelt, bracing himself as he hit the roof below him. He groaned as his upper back collided with the ground. “Hey, Zo’.” Jake crawled below her and tried to unbuckle her seatbelt with a sense of panic. “Damn,” he cursed. The seatbelt wasn’t going to loosen willingly. He searched for any solution and found a glint in the half opened glovebox by his feet. He had rediscovered his pocket knife. 

Quickly, he pulled it open and stuck it in the seatbelt box, jiggling it around; waiting for the click.

After a few painstaking moments, the restraint opened. He ripped it off and Zoe fell onto Jake’s torso, immediately winding him. 

“Come on, Zo’; we need to get out of here.” His arm clung to her waist and he wriggled out as fast as he could from the flammable scrap. He was relieved as he inhaled fresh air; flushing out his lungs from the scent of leaking petrol. 

Once they were clear of the vehicle, Jake laid Zoe out of sight and began to lightly touch her face. “Wake up, Zo’. We need to leave!” There was a minimal groaning response; but she was still conscious-- with her eyes half open. “That’s good enough for me.” With difficulty, he scooped his partner into his chest, stood up shakily, and tried to walk in a straight direction. 

“FREEZE!” He stopped, closing his eyes. His arms were trembling in exhaustion, and his heart begun to palpitate. “Turn around—slowly.” He listened, clutching Zoe tightly.

“Come on, mate,” Jake tried, making earnest eye contact. “You don’t want to do this.” His eyes scanned the gun pointed at the two of them worriedly. 

“I don’t think that you’re in the position to tell me what to do.” The same voice, body turning in the shadows, triggered his radio. “Sir, they’re still alive.” A static grumble was all that could be deciphered in Jake’s ringing ears. “Yes, boss.”

The gun began to aim. “Don’t move.”

The safety clicked. “It would be in your best interest to close your eyes.”

Jake waited, watching the trigger, steeling his already hardened glare. 

Nothing happened.

Until, in a split second, the gun moved from Jake’s chest to Zoe’s. 

“NO!”

BANG!

Bodies were sent flying down the hill Jake had painfully trekked up. They rested at the bottom of the hill; lying still-- breathing stiller. “They’re finished now, boss,” the voice quipped. 

There was a sound of car doors slamming and a car engine starting, and it began to drive away.

It was still for a moment…

Until Jake grimaced. One of his arms were trapped under Zoe’s body This time, she was out cold. Jake wiped the grime off of his forehead, before being engulfed in a stabbing pain. He let out a broken cry.  Zoe was unharmed; a concussion was assumed, at worst.

But Jake was shot. And he was bleeding out. He choked on his words; the pain kept swallowing them. 

What he needed was an ambulance--and fast.

He only had one arm to move his body, and it caused him the most pain he had ever felt. 

“Argh,” he groaned. “Z-Zo’.”

He had to find something-- anything-- to call for help. He searched his pockets, but he knew that he wasn't prepared for situations like this.

… But maybe Zoe was. 

“Zoe,” Jake attempted to shake her awake. “Please, wake up!” 

There was minimal movement. 

“Help me out here, love...” He pressed against his side with his hand, whilst his other worked on slipping out from under Zoe’s body. Eventually, he managed to retrieve his trapped limb. 

There was no blood on Zoe’s clothing, and Jake reassured himself that she was unharmed-- relatively. 

He placed both his hands on his side, focusing on stopping the bleeding as much as possible. A wave of nausea overcame him; the heat from the flaming vehicle caused his stomach to churn almost endlessly as he glanced down. Blood was seeping through his fingers, and Jake’s vision was becoming increasingly blurred; he allowed himself to close his eyes, wanting nothing more than to pass out. He felt his mind begin to cloud over, but there was a certain buzzing in his ears. It was faint, but it was there…

The last thing he heard was his name being called by a half familiar voice.

He only hoped that it wasn’t too late…

------

Beep after beep after beep… his ears would explode any moment now. He tried to inhale through his nose, and quickly had the urge to itch as something constantly prodded inside his nostrils. 

Task 1 -- open your eyes.

 His eyelids felt content to stay obstructing his vision, yet his instincts said otherwise, and they obstinately broke apart.

It was dark. That was his first observation. 

Being in what he assumed was the hospital, the stereotype inclined him to believe that bright white lights would be the first thing he would see. That certainly wasn’t the case. The moon cast through the half open blinds, the entire building held an air of kenopsia.

Jake, still feeling drowsy, decided to wait until the sun rises to make any moves; all he knew was that he was safe, and he could allow himself to let go. 

----------

He closed his eyes for a second, and the sun was up, being met with a familiar face.

“Hey,” Zoe smiled, tension relaxing her shoulders. 

“Hi,” Jake replied, a smug grin playing on his lips. “Are you okay?”

“Am I okay? I’m not the one in a hospital bed.”

“Just making sure.”

“I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you.”

Jake chuckled. “You know me; I’m full of surprises.”

There was a calm silence that clouded over the room. “They said you were lucky, you know. You’ve been out for three days.” Zoe looked over at the IV drip that was taped to his arm. 

“The best three days of your life, I bet?” he chuckled. 

“No, no; Jake, they were the worst days I think I’ve ever had. Don’t pull a stunt like that ever again -- for both our sakes.”

He couldn’t help but smile. A few rapid knocks on the door interrupted the moment, and Nick came through the door. “Alright?”

“Alright.”

“Not bad.”

He sighed. “You probably have some questions.”

“So many questions…”

“You don’t even know…”

He raised his hand, silencing both voices. “Once you’re both ready, I will answer them. But for now, you’ll rest and recover. I apologise for… all of this.” He turned to leave, but stopped as if he forgot something. Without a word, he pulled out a coin, flipping it in Zoe’s direction, who caught it automatically. He nodded intently, and left. She shared a look with Jake, turning the now recognisable token in her hand. It wasn’t any form of currency, but instead had a certain insignia minted in the centre; a rather obscure looking ‘A’. If it was an ‘A’ at all…

“What do you think it means?” Zoe asked.

Jake shifted, slightly groaning. “I don’t know. But whatever it is, will change everything.”

Research in Red

Pairing: Chekov x Reader

Word Count: 1334

Warnings: pain, vomiting, general uncomfortableness associated with periods

A/N: Based on an anon request from ages ago: “I was wondering if I could request a really fluffy Chekov x reader imagine when the readers on her period and is having bad cramps and such and Chekov comforts and cuddles her?” I’m never sure if I should type the accent or not but I did so...if it sucks lmk and I’ll remove the accent lmao. 

It started with a small jolt of pain - one you were keen enough to ignore as you pulled on your uniform and prepared yourself for another day inside the groaning skeleton of the Enterprise. The pain grew like a tide as the day went on, until it felt like someone had tied a rope around your midsection and was pulling with all their strength. Oh, and the rope was made of barbed wire and was also on fire. You knew this was just the beginning. 

Usually, when your period was this painful in the beginning, it only lasted a few days. Here you were hitting day four, though, pressing as much of your body as you could against the metal walls of the corridor in an attempt to combat the hot flash searing every nerve in your body. 

This is how Chekov found you: sweat beading your forehead as you pressed yourself even closer to the wall. It looked like you were trying to walk through it somehow. Unsure of himself, Chekov remained silent until he reached the door a few feet away from you. It slid open with a noise that sounded more like a hiss. 

You jumped back from the wall, not expecting anyone else in the hallway. The movement was too quick. Too sudden. The lights seemed to get brighter as your head swam. You leaned back against the wall to keep from hitting the floor. You felt like you were floating. Or maybe like you were falling. You felt everything at once and then you didn’t feel anything except Chekov’s hand on your cheek. 

Gradually, you became aware that he was trying to tell you something, but, between the pain and the newly developed dizziness, you couldn’t make it out. Still, you were happy to listen to the distant murmur of his voice as he pulled you back up straight. 

He ran a hand through your hair, messing up your neatly tied ponytail. Perhaps on a different day you could have found the energy to be mad, though you weren’t sure you’d ever have the energy to be mad at the Ensign in front of you. 

Chekov started leading you down the hallway and you thought you heard the word ‘Medbay.’ At this, you began to protest. You insisted you just needed to return to your quarters and lie down. Although, you should probably notify Scotty first that you wouldn’t be back. Now that you thought of it, you probably should’ve notified him a while ago. You weren’t sure how long you’d spent in this hallway, but as Chekov led you up to the living quarters you saw a lot of people who should’ve still been on shift if it was only lunch break. 

You typed your passcode into the door and, as it slid open, you felt bile rise in your throat. Chekov barely had time to register your absence before you were throwing yourself to the floor in front of the toilet and spilling your guts to it. A sob came up along with the vomit as your body heaved again. Cold ran down your spine as all the heat dissipated from your very bones, and you were shocked the tears didn’t freeze on your cheeks as cold as you felt. 

Chekov knelt in front of you, looking every bit like a lost puppy. “What can I do,” he whispered. “What do you need?” You shook your head. “I’ll call ze doctor. He’ll know what to do.”

“No,” you protested, “No, it’s nothing I promise.” 

“It’s not nosing.” Panic crept into his voice. “You almost passed out in ze hallway. Now you’re throwing up and crying and shivering and you tell me it’s nosing. Gospodi! It’s not nosing!”

“I appreciate your concern, Pavel,” you said as you pushed yourself up to sit on the edge of the toilet seat, “but it is. It’ll pass in a couple days. It’s just…”

“Just what?” 

You turned away, suddenly unable to look Chekov in the eyes. “Just my period.”

Poor Chekov turned as red as the beets he used to say his grandmother grew in his hometown. He stammered something Russian under his breath and fled the bathroom so quickly you had to blink a couple times before the shadow of his body left your vision. 

You shook your head again with a soft laugh, before flushing the toilet and grabbing the heating pad under your sink. Within a few minutes, you’d told Scotty you weren’t coming back today, put on your pajamas, and snuggled into bed as the warmth from the heating pad spread across your abdomen like a gentle caress. 

The alarm dragged you flailing out of the best sleep you’d had in the past few days. The heating pad was long since cold, hanging over the edge bed as if too was trying to escape your body. You got out of bed carefully, checking to make sure there were no spots on your sheets. You wondered how many soiled bed spreads you could send to the laundry center a month before they stopped sending any back. 

The comm on your nightstand dinged just as you were making your way to the bathroom. Scotty’s voice filled your small room as he told you Chekov had told him you weren’t feeling well and offered to cover your shift. The Bridge hardly needed the extra hands right now, and everyone wanted you healed up as quick as possible. You didn’t have time to thank him before the line went dead. 

You tossed the comm back onto your nightstand and flopped back into bed with all the grace of a salmon swimming upstream. Cocooning yourself in the covers, you cranked the heating pad back to its highest setting and were asleep again in a matter of seconds.

A soft knock at your door woke you. You groaned as you rolled over. The clock on the nightstand was blank. It seemed the heating pad had tripped the fuse on the outlet, and, with no other means of telling time, you had no idea how long you’d been asleep. Perhaps Scotty had come to do a welfare check. 

The knock came again, more insistently. You called back that you were coming and traipsed to the door, the floor icy against your feet. You fumbled for the light switch first, allowing your eyes to adjust so the bright, clinical hallway lights wouldn’t blind you. 

When the door opened, Chekov couldn’t stop the grin spreading across his face. You stood before him, sleep still clearly weighing your features down, in your dinosaur print pajamas and disheveled hair. His heart swelled when you grinned at him. 

“I brought you somesing.” He held up a basket you hadn’t noticed a moment ago, and you could’ve cried from joy. 

There were chocolates and pain medicine and tea and, if that wasn’t enough, a selection of movies and music from different eras. You hardly knew what to say. Instead, you threw your arms around Chekov and kissed him on the cheek. 

The tips of his ears were turning red again as you pulled away, and you could feel a similar blush creeping across your cheeks. There was silence then, thick and heavy like a humid summer night but not entirely uncomfortable. You reached to take the basket from Chekov, but he didn’t let go, his mind still in too much of a haze to function properly. 

“Do you…” Your voice trailed off as you inched your hand closer to his. “Do you maybe want to watch one of those movies with me tonight?” 

Chekov nodded enthusiastically. “I would love to! I’ve been meaning to watch zem since we started zis trip, but I don’t like watching movies alone and I haven’t found ze right person to watch zem with but -” 

You laughed at Chekov’s nervous rambling. “Come on, Pavel,” you said, tugging the basket slightly. He moved with it, following you into your room as the door slid closed.

[kakitysax]

@tatiebop thanks for the tag! It didn’t work lmao but I saw my name in there! These are all probably going to be really long, too, so...sorry in advance.

(Actually it ended up being so long that I’m just gonna put a cut right here)

Name/Nickname: Oh boy.

My real name is also my birth name, and I’m not about to share it. Not because I’m scared of y’all but because I do like having some level of mystery or privacy or whatever. 

I also have a lot of names that I like, but very few of them are actually in use. Also, just to be clear, Karkalicious is not one of them. That one is more like a pair of ironic sunglasses that I’ve become pretty fond of wearing. Still, I guess it’s about time I share some of the more utilitarian ones...

Kaz (Kazzy / Kazzyboi) is one that’s gotten the most use over the years. On the spectrum of serious to ironic names it’s closer to ironic, but that’s just because it belonged to a shitty character I made when I was twelve.

Calais (Cal / Callie) is one of my serious names, and has also gotten some use. I’m pretty fond of it.

Most of the other names are ones that I share with characters of mine. But my REAL name is always gonna be my birth name. I love it so much. Wish I’d realized sooner that you don’t need to change your name in order to be nonbinary.

Gender: Nonbinary. 

I do have a gender, but there isn’t really a word to describe it? It looks and smells vaguely feminine but is decidedly not female. I like She online, but They in real life, and I’m not averse to He.

Sign: Libra (I’ve always resonated a lot more with Gemini though. Not sure how I come across. Let me know!)

Height: 5′2 and 3/4ths

Birthday: October 21st

Favorite Bands: Look my taste in music is shit it’s just a grab-bag of singular songs that I stumbled across and liked. I do like U2 though.

Favorite Solo Artists: Lemon Demon, Toby Fox, Tensei (Fucking kill me.)

Song Stuck In My Head Right Now: Lifetime Achievement Award (Lemon Demon)

Last Movie: Wall-E (last Saturday’s Family Movie Night)

Last TV Show: Depends on how you classify it? The last show that I’ve watched that is like professionally produced is Pokemon: Indigo League, which I watch with R. The last episodic animated series I’ve consumed is the fanmade anime Touhou: Memories of Phantasm

When I Created This Blog: Last September

Last Thing I Googled: “Crying Emoji Meme” for This Post

Other Blogs: @karkles-does-things @yeet-your-smeet @the-grub-hub @yeet-your-feels

Do I Get Asks: I get them pretty much daily ever since Jay came back from the dead, but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t like more! (sometimes I lie awake at night wondering who it was that asked if I would rather have $4000 a week or $10 million up front because I think they’re my favorite)

Why I Chose This URL: Story Time

Shortly before I made this blog, I had an encounter with my sister wherein I was forced to engage her while heavily dissociated. The back of my brain had to generate something completely mindless to say in order to give some semblance of humanity. Like one of those fucking “we showed a Robot 20 hours of X and then forced it to write it’s own X.”

What it churned out was “don’t you hate it when you just yeet your skeet?”

“What?” asked my sister, a valid question.

“You know, when your skeet’s been yeeted?” I responded.

It kind of stuck. 

Among the few who know about the incident, to have your skeet yeeted has come to mean having an out-of-body experience so intense that you are either deluded or no longer aware of the random bullshit that you are doing. It makes sense.

Average Hours Of Sleep: 7

Lucky Number: I don’t know if this is like an astrology thing, and I don’t care because my lucky number is 13 and nothing will change that

Instruments: I can bullshit my way around a clarinet, and know a little more about drums. The only thing I’ve been consistently learning to use is my voice. Apparently it’s a good one, but I’ve been feeling kind of insecure about it lately.

What I’m Wearing: My Void Hoodie. Always. Also sweatpants.

Dream Trip: Japan. But only after I learn enough Japanese to not fucking embarrass myself

Favorite Song: Bro why do people ask this? Let’s be real here, we all have an ever-shifting list of songs that slap and songs that we’ve listened to so much that we hate them now and songs that we liked when we were depressed and make us too sad now.

Top 3 Fictional Universes I’d Like To Live In: 

Uh it’s less that I want to live in a fictional universe and more that I want control over how I can interact with other people. I’d be fine with any universe provided I could fly and teleport and maybe turn invisible.

Fucking Shit this got really long.

I’m gonna tag @timefire25, and @maxisfunky because I’m pretty sure Tatie got everyone else. @thegayhellhound I’d love to hear from you too

[astralectric]

All primes and your favourite numbers~

I’m math illiterate and I had to look up what prime numbers are lmao

2. If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be?

“the one”

3. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17

it’s a short poem (Mary Oliver), so I’ll just type the whole thing:

“Loneliness

I too have known loneliness.

I too have known what if is to feel

misunderstood,

rejected, and suddenly

not at all beautiful.

oh, mother earth,

your comfort is great, your arms never withhold.

It has saved my life to know this.

Your rivers flowing, your roses opening in the morning.

Oh, motions of tenderness!”

5 What does your latest text message from someone else say?

“YES” - my bestie

7 What’s your strangest talent?

When I was a kid I could do a head sit and braid my hair with my toes lol. I don’t think I can do that anymore. Nowadays... I can recite some poems that I love, but is that considered strange? I figured out how to paint with crayons and I’m pretty good at it.

11. Do you have any strange phobias?

Yes, I can’t stand anything to do with eyeballs. I’ve actually been putting off going to the optometrist for too long now :/

13 What’s your religion?

I’m not a part of any organized religion. Spiritually I lean towards buddhism since it makes sense to me, and I read The Kybalion last year and felt pretty in tune with that as well.

17 What was the last lie you told?

(to my cat) “If you keep sneaking outside I will not keep letting you back in!”

19 What does your URL mean?

astral + electric. I just came up with it on the fly.

23 How do you vent your anger?

Of all the negative emotions anger is the one I experience the least, so usually I just relish in feeling it at all. If something is bothering me for too long I write about it in my journal and that usually helps the feeling move along.

29 Do you believe in ghosts? How about aliens?

No and yes

31 Smell the air. What do you smell?

My window is open and it has that crisp fall air smell coming in. Also cat food.

37. Do you believe in luck?

I believe that people’s lives follow their attention, but other than that I’m kind of a soft determinist so yes? I think so

41. What is the last book you read?

“Lone Rider: The First British Woman to Motorcycle Around the World”

43. Do you have any nicknames?

Just Ginny

47: Do you have any obsessions right now?

Sadly no fun ones. I’ve been hyper-focused on getting better at digital art the last couple months.

53. Do you save money or spend it?

I would love to save money but I haven’t had regular work since August rip. When I’m working I prefer to save but I’ll spend on something I think is worth it.

59 Where were you yesterday?

Home, and on a little hike.

61 Are you wearing socks right now?

yes!

67 What were you doing last night at 12AM?

😴

71 You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?

Save the dog, does anybody ever answer this question differently?

73 You can only have one of these things; trust or love.

This one is evil and since it’s not actually phrased as a question I’m not answering it.

79 What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far?

Any time I travel it’s the latest best decision.

83. Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word; heart.

“I carry your heart(I carry it in my heart)”

89. What would be the question you’d be afraid to tell the truth on?

maybe: what do you want most right now?

97 Have you ever thrown up in a car?

yes lol

My favorite numbers:

4: What do you think about the most?

Trying to figure out how I’m going to turn my skills into a career, hoping that my future has romance in it, planning my slow travel around the world while worrying that the longer covid is a threat the less likely I’ll be to actually do it.

10: When was the last time you played air guitar?

right now babe

Nickname: Bon, Sodo, Soba, Shabo

Zodiac: Taurus/Gemini Sun, Aries Moon, Leo Rising. Earth Tiger.

Hight: 5'6″

Hogwarts house: I’ve gotten all of them before but I usually say Slytherin, or, if I have the choice, Slytherpuff.

Last thing I googled: Pontiac (I was trying to get a mental image reference for this song)

Song stuck in my head: I didn’t have anything stuck in my head until I remembered I googled that, so- 20 Naked Pentecostals in a Pontiac

Number of followers: 227, apparently. I had like 800 smthn on my last acct, but there was a really bad glitch that wouldn’t let me edit the theme at ALL, and then i got locked out of it and the email associated to it somehow. So, new account. Thankfully I had already hoarded this URL, and am now very attached to it.

Amount of sleep: Usually, 9-10 hours, but really it’s however much sleep has me waking up at 10, 10:30am.

Lucky number: idk, but my favorite number is 4, I think. I also like 14 and 16. and 666 if we want our fav like. meme number?

Dream job: At one point I would’ve said animator. But now... not sure. Story board artist, maybe, I would love to work with stories like that, especially at Cartoon Network type thing, kids stuff, but honestly... I’ve also really fallen in love with being a barista, and the prospect of opening a tabletop game shop/coffee shop is very tempting.

Wearing: I just changed into PJs, so blue running shorts and a loose white/orange tank

Fave song: I don’t think I have one SPECIFIC one, but I am a big fan of Sweet Tooth, although literally anything by Alexander James Adams or his predecessor Heather Alexander makes me feel... better, be it more pumped up, or happy, or just... at home. Some examples are Storyteller, Fairy Queen and it’s follow up, He of the Sidhe, and March of Cambreadth (good if you like bagpipes, that one!)

Fave instrument: Taiko drum. I am working on playing viola, which I also love, but taiko makes me tear up just thinking about it, it’s so powerful and incredible, and it just moves me and makes me feel like I’m ready to fight and do anything with the world.

Aesthetic: Blue. Fuck ton of blue. Beyond that, uhhhhhhh it’s a grab bag of shit, I guess low-key fantasy slash urban magic, but my general order to thing is just usually casual and All Of It Blue

Fave animal noises: Puppies attempting howls are amazing, but we’ve had fledgling crows super active lately, and listening to them try to figure out how to caw is hilarious and adorable. I will also take foxes laughing. 

Fave author: Prrrrobably Gail Carriger and Terry Pratchett (although I haven’t read all of discworld YET, I LOVE what I have read)

Do you finish what you start?: Sometimes! When I’m properly motivated or feeling stubborn or hyperfocused enough

Random? If you were and animal what would you be?: I consider myself a husky. Very dramatic, constantly screaming, expressive and attention-seeking. Also picky

I taaaaaaag @cephalopodqueen @ragd0llprince @thebloodsuckerproxy @rigazz @bees-with-swords aaaand if you wanna do this, count me as your tagger lmao

Tagged by @doomedteaparty !!!! thanks for tagging :D

Rules: answer the questions and then tag 20 people.

Name: Lydia

Nickname: Obsi to friends and folks on the internet

Star sign: Taurus

Gender: nb woman 

Sexuality: Lesbian

Favorite color: I love purple, especially lilac

Time right now: 1:41 am

Average hours of sleep: 8-9 

The last thing I googled: Death Note fanfic...https://archiveofourown.org/users/princegrisejoie/pseuds/Devilinthebox...I really like this author

Number of blankets: 4 or 5 because I like being cozy

Favorite fictional character: L from Death Note, he keeps haunting me because he was one of the first characters that broke my little heart ;A;

What are you wearing right now: A shirt that I won at pride and some comfy yoga pants

Favorite book: David Clement Davies’ The Sight

Favorite musician: Hozier’s my boyyy, I saw him in concert recently!

Dream job: Architecture, but really? A job where I make enough so I can travel a lot for fun :p

Number of followers: 1707

When did you create your account: May of 2012...

What do you post about: I hyperfixate on a lot of things and then queue main fandoms/side fandoms. Right now I’m into Elder Scrolls. I also post about Death Note, taz, Okami, Sailor Moon, and anything that grabs my attention tbh

What made you get an account: Well. I was a tiny high schooler who got into Sherlock around the hiatus and heard that tumblr really liked Benny C (I had a crush on him at that time), so I hopped on board the tumblr train. A LOT has changed since then LMAO

When did your blog reach its peak: I don’t think there was ever really a peak. I’m just here, and will remain here until I stop having fun with this blog. 

Do you get asks on a daily basis: No, but god I remember wanting to be like one of those tumblr popular people back in 2012 that had cute anons and stuff

Why did you choose your url: Oof. It’s a leftover relic from my time playing on Howrse, a horse raising game. Everyone in this forum I frequented had edgy names, and I was just...PaintHorse1. My favorite rock (well, volcanic glass, shhh) was obsidian, but I had also heard it used in gothic novels as a way to describe darkness, I think, so I also tacked on shadow at the end. Were it not for the laws of tumblr urls, I would have used the name’s original format: *Obsidian.Shadow* 

Hmmm I can’t think of 20 people off the top of my head, but @reihun @starrykid @murdoc @starrykid @trans-l-lawliet @goblette oof, um, anyone who wishes to do this? Heh ^.^;
