[plasmasimagination]

hello!! i would like a hsr matchup if u still do them?? if u don't, then I apologize for not knowing im new to this 💔💔

im a gay autistic + bpd guy whose mbti type is entj :] despite being able to interact w other ppl if I want 2, I still don't HAHA I see no use in talking w strangers which may make me difficult to get along with at first.... i don't speak unless it's necessary. I love my friends dearly though and believe I have enough in my life to get by if yk what I mean. I love anything related to photography a lot and typology as well!! i like analyzing people mainly so I can feel good abt how I described them perfectly (hehehe sorry)

erm I don't get mad easily and when I'm upset, I brush off my feelings and try to be rational which has made ppl super comfortable with me!! which is good bcuz it's easier for them to b honest... I think... tho it's rough for me to open up I never do

i also enjoy philosophy sometimes!! I'm not religious at all but there's prob something out there...and I journal almost every night. I used to write poems and stories when I was 11-13, but now a lot of them never get finished smhh I love physics too esp astrophysics!! it's been my fav since my childhood ^_^ oh UMMM i like drinking tea (no I'm not british... im desi HAHA) 💔💔💔 i have always done well in school despite skipping a lot n now thinking abt failure in general makes me panic ... oops

I hope this was worded okay bcuz I can b terrible at describing myself !!! have a good day!!!

Hii sweetheart

Onto your matchup!

.

.

.

DAN HENG

Dan heng as calm as he is does enjoy the presence of a sweetheart like you

Similar to you, Dan Heng also dislikes talking to strangers, and prefers not to attempt to talk to them in any way

Dan Heng is a reader, and would love if you allowed him to read your stories/poets, he's gonna give constructive criticism but also praise, after all the best door to a soul is a poets work and he uses that to get to know your thought process and mind

I always say this, but when U date Dan Heng you get a free march 7th

So since you two are both into photography I'm sure y'all can talk about It or like take photos together, Dan Heng will be off to the side just watching the conversation go down and nodding satisfied

Your ability to analyze people will do well with Dan Heng, he's not very vocal about his feelings, so when you can figure it out it will help a lot so you can communicate easier with him

Hi bestie~ matchup request lets gooooooooooo

Im a very happy person most of the time. One of those immature but still mature people. I would quite literally do almost anything for those I love and I'm always planning for when I can next hang out with my friends. However, I still do like my alone time and have a flucuating social battery (somedays ill do a lot and want to do more, other days i do one thing and i dont want to do anything else lol)

I like trying new drinks or foods, playing video games, doing sports, singing, drawing, reading and generally learning about stories, no matter what form they come in!

I dislike the ocean, jerks, flakey people (despite having several as my friends 😔), being forced to socalize, and spiders.

Also idk if it matters too much but im also pan and genderfluid! Thank youuuuuuuu <3

Hihi Lexi chan! Thx for the request let’s see who your match is…DRUMROLL PLEASE!!!

🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁

DOPPIO DROPSCYTHE!!!

TW: mentions human trafficking in the beginning

I got Doppio in a matchup trade I did a few weeks ago so you and i are gonna have to share. Don’t worry he has two very big hands/j

You and Doppi mesh really well. You’re both active, full of energy, and down for anything. However you both know how to take things slow and appreciate the little things in life.

You and Doppio met when you were enrolled into XSOLIEL. The student council had been assigned a new mission: rescue and recruit a new student.

You were born with the power to shape shift. Similar to Kotoka Torahime, but instead of turning into people you turned into animals. You’re not quite sure how or why and you never questioned. You loved your ability it made you who you are, however sometimes you wished you were normal so you didn’t have to live in this hell hole…

You were an orphan. You never knew your “parents” were afraid of your ability. They thought you were some kind of monster or demon and sold you to the highest bidder. A rich businessman who made you shape shift and perform and treated you like an animal. You hated every single day of your life there, but you did make friends with the members of the troupe.

One day one the youngest members learned that you were to be sold to a rich man in the audience after the next night’s show. You didn’t want to leave your family and were worried on what would happen to the other performers.

That night you couldn’t sleep at all trying to think of a way out of your fate when you heard a commotion outside your quarters. You rushed out of your hammock to see what was going on.

You were faced with the sight of what looked to be two men in school uniforms single handedly beating up your master’s goons. You ran back before they could notice you and told everyone to hide. You didn’t know who they were or what they wanted but you weren’t willing to take the risk.

All of a sudden everything got quiet. You were practically holding your breath from where you were hiding in case they heard you. Suddenly you heard the crash of someone kicking down the door, and in walked a tall man with black, white and magenta hair.

He found where you were hiding and flashed a fanged smile. He introduced himself as Doppio Dropscythe the disciplinarian at XSOLIEL Institute of Infinity and that he was here to rescue you. He held his hand out to you, and despite not understanding what was going on or who this man was…you took his hand. (Aka author chan doesn’t wanna keep dwelling on this scene so we’re moving on)

6 months later and you’re loving your new life and new friends at XSOLIEL. Ever since they rescued you Doppio had done everything in his power to make you happy and love life again and you two were as thick as thieves. You were so close in fact that you had started to fall for him.

You had been confiding in your other best friend Kotoka (you two bonded really quickly over your similar powers) about your crush. She shipped you guys hard, and knew for a facf that Doppi wanted to ask you too but, too nervous.

However after a bit of hyping up from his friends he finally did. He showed up to your dorm in his 6’2 (187 cm) glory (he bumped his head on the way in), got on one knee with a bouquet of (insert favorite flower here), and asked you out in a very heart felt Doppio style monologue. And you said yes.

Since then you two have been the power couple of XSOLIEL. Him on student council and you on the basketball court. You two also team up for missions as well and dominate your enemies.

Dates usually consist of video games, playing sports outside, and cooking. You two love to hang out with your friends but Doppi can pick up when you’ve had enough and make up an excuse for you guys to leave. He also takes care of spiders for you although begrudgingly. (You’re on your own for cockroaches though)

Have fun with this big innocent goofball.

This one was fun and pretty easy to write. Hope you like it

Runners Up: Vox Akuma, Luca Kaneshiro

[bruhhhh-huhhhhh]

Hello friend! Heres my info for the matchup exchange :D! I’d prefer a male killer from DBD, but honestly, if a survivor matches more with me thats cool too! (I’m a massive wesker simp but disregard this if he doesn’t match well with me, I promise I’m fine with it :D!!)

I use any pronouns :) I'm 5’6, I have very fair skin (i can't wear most concealer because im too pale :,) I have beauty marks that can be seen on my entire body, I have a slightly curly, blonde wolfcut, and light blue eyes. I have an hourglass shape, I am a little chubby though and have thicker thighs and uh... chest. I'm normally pretty careful.. but I do have a few scars on my knees from times I've tripped :,)) I'm proud of it all though!

Personality wise, l'm pretty dependent on other people's moods, if they're calm, I am too. Sad? Same here.. Besides that l'm usually very quiet and observant, preferring to watch the conversation rather than join in, ya know? l’ll only step in if someone asks my opinion or its something i'm super interested in/have lots of knowledge about. Seriously, I'll rant for hours to my s/o about my interests. I tend to be hyperactive and affectionate around people I care about though (especially my s/o), I absolutely will cuddle up next to them at any given moment, no questions asked. (I also will endlessly flirt with my partner if im feeling like an absolute gremlin-) I also love to playfully tease my partner, I will actually tackle them istg- l'm super caring and loyal too, so l'll make sure they know how appreciative I am of them with compliments and little gifts (random things I found that I thought they’d like- I’m like a crow-)!

I have bad anxiety which constantly makes me overthink things and fear that my partner is only with me out of pity.. Which only leads me to being jealous of others around my s/o. Haha clingy much ? :,))

Anyways, my hobbies include photography, knitting/sewing, playing video games, writing, listening to music, and fashion design!

Love language: Physical touch, gift giving, quality time.

Thank you so much and please take your time on this! Happy holidays :DD !

omg yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes

Anyways, I match you with...

Albert Wesker!

Please you two are a match made in... the entity's realm. I guess

Don't worry about the concealer, he'll have the entity make some especially for you. He doesn't care what it takes. All 4 kills every trail for the next ten trials? They're dead. A blood sacrifice? Already done. Albert doesn't really care if you wear it or not. You're still as beautiful to him either way, but if it makes you happy, he'll do anything to get it for you

This man will hug, squeeze, kiss, or even bite your curves every chance he can get. You can't blame him though! You're just so...squishy, and he loves it.

He's almost always calm, so you will be too. Seriously, this man needs to learn to express his feelings more often.

Pretty much the only time Wesker isn't calm is after an especially difficult trail. You get one of two versions of him. He's either very VERY angry, to the point where he'll excuse himself to go let put some of said anger, or he gets really affectionate. You won't be getting up for a while.

Please rant to him about anything you want. He loves it so much, even if it looks like he doesn't. It makes Wesker content to see you so excited.

He's never content

Flirt with him, I dare you. He'll flirt back so hard. It'd be funny to watch you guys go back and forth, trying to fluster the other

Albert almost always wins

He will keep each and every gift that you give him in his drawer at RPD. The entity makes it to where the drawer that he keeps them in is much bigger than it looks.

Don't worry about being jealous, Albert literally never interacts with others. He only does if either you or the entity makes him.

Please make him socialize, he needs it sometimes

Make him a new outfit and he'll love it. He may not wear it in trials, but he'll wear it when no one other than you can see it. He has an image to uphold, just not around you

If you're a survivor, Wesker will still chase you around in the trails. He won't hurt you, heavens no! He'll just get your adrenaline going

He'll also make it VERY clear to all the other survivors and killers that you aren't to be touched.

One time, Ace scoffed at you and said some...unsavory things. When you finally told Wesker about it, he made sure that Ace had a very interesting trail. He did some things that even the entity couldn't stop.

His head was delivered to the campfire on a stick :)

Anytime any of the killers even look at you for too long, let alone sacrifice you, they get an earful from Albert. And maybe a sock to the jaw if they argue back-

If you're a fellow killer, he'll sit there and let you vent about survivors being dicks and anything else you want to vent about

All in all, he enjoys your presence very much and will let you do anything you want

Treat him well :D

Note: I loved reading your information, it gave me Bubbles (from Powerpuff girls)vibes and I almost fell for you (gotta stay professional tho.)����💘

After a long time of thinking 💭 your match is....

Akaashi Keiji

Background:

You were a transfer student and it was your last year of high school. Finally! Your last year would be at Fukurōdani Academy. It was your first day and you wore the uniform, to add a pop of color you wore a blue ribbon tied in a bow to match your necktie. You even wore the right accessories and were ready to go. You entered the building and went to the helpdesk and explained your situation to the middle-aged lady. She gave you a reassuring smile and told you that you could take your time, because she dismissed you for your first hour, so you could explore the school building for yourself. After walking around for a while, you came to the conclusion that you were lost! This school was like a maze. You were looking for the library since you needed some books for your next class and you somehow ended up in the middle of…what looked like handball practice or was it volleyball? “Excuse me..” you asked and all the boys stopped and turned to you a black and white-haired boy around your age ran up to you “You must be here for the manager's position, right!” he looked down at you with a big smile. Another black-haired boy approached you two "Bokuto, leave her alone. She might feel uncomfortable." the boy looked at you and gave you a warm smile "I am Akaashi Keiji, nice to meet you." you introduced yourself by only responding with your name and realized how embarrassing it would be to admit that you got lost. So when Akaashi asked you why you were there you told him it was for the manager position. After all the paperwork was done you asked "Uhm…Akaashi could you tell me where the library is? I am new and have almost figured out where everything's located." he nodded and told you it was on the second floor right next to the staircase on the northern side of the building. You left and felt so stupid you really were an airhead! You got to the library and printed out your schedule and found your classroom and saw Bokutou and Akaashi sitting next to each other. Bokuto waved excitedly and told you to sit in front of him and you did.

How it started:

Being the manager of a volleyball team sure was exhausting, especially when disagreements occurred. You were quite a people pleaser and didn't really like confrontation even when there was someone clearly in the wrong. You also had to wash all the sweaty uniforms and towels, and memorize everything about volleyball so you could help them out better. And motivating Bokuto was also a full-time job. You really admired Akaashi, the way he was always prepared for when things didn't go as planned. He always had a plan B and if that failed C and after that well you know the alphabet. You were sitting next to the coach and were scrolling through your phone and saw that there was a new horror movie out. You already saw the trailer and were waiting for it to come out. You wanted to ask Akaashi out as friends. It wouldn't be weird, would it? You looked up and saw how they were cleaning up the gym which meant that practice was over for the day. You went to the locker room and changed into a pink sweater and a short jean skirt. You had no classes and wanted to go shopping and felt more comfortable in your own clothes rather than your school uniform. You ran out to catch your bus, but you saw Akaashi standing at the gate. "Hey Akaashi, what are you up to?" he looked at you and smiled "Nothing much, probably just homework and making sure Bokuto doesn't do anything stupid." "Would you like to go out with me.." you said it out of impulse and the both of you blushed "as friends of course!" you added quickly. "I don't want to go out with you as friends." he said softly, "You don't like me?" you asked sadly you really liked him and it did hurt you to know it wasn't mutual. "I do like you a lot, I'd rather go out on a real date than just as friends," he responded, his blush deepening with each word.

General headcanons:

💘He loves watching horror movies because you always cling on to him during jumpscares and suspenseful moments.

💘He always plays with your hair, it helps him think or calm down.

💘Loves to go to the beach with you. (it's like the typical beach episode)

💘You two bake a lot together and you teach him, he thinks you look adorable when you look so concentrated measuring the milk while your face is covered with flour.

💘You drag him to the mall for a shopping spree and he pretends like he doesn't like it, but in reality LOVES IT!

💘He gives you forehead kisses.

💘likes to lay his head on your boobs, I mean chest. 🍒

Other possible matches: Sugawara and Daichi

And Tomura Shigaraki

Background:

You were at the mall and had so many bargains, this day couldn't get any better! You walked around with a bunch of shopping bags and needed a break, so you looked around for a good cafe until someone bumped into you. You bowed and apologized, and after that you walked off not realizing you dropped your school ID. The person you bumped into picked it up. A week later someone approached you on the street, they wore a black hoodie and red sneakers. "Hey doesn't this belong to you?" the stranger showed you your school ID "yeah! where did you find it, thank you so much?" You asked relieved "I started a new hero agency with a special training program and I saw on your school ID that you were a UA student, so I was wondering if you might be interested." the stranger said ignoring your previous question. "Oh really, you have an agency? what's your hero name?" "I am not that famous, but I totally get it. Since you're a UA student you prefer to work with a more well-known hero." he says in a defeated tone, you slightly panicked "that's not true!" Since that day you were surrounded by a group of strange people, but who were you to judge. They were all so nice to me, you thought to yourself but they did ask an awful lot of questions regarding UA and its security system and about the dorms, etc. But maybe they got curious since they didn't attend UA themselves.

How it started:

“Follow me Y/n I want to show you something.” Shigaraki says as he tugs your hand with his index finger and thumb only, not wanting to decay you. It had been a few months after Shigaraki had scammed you with his whole hero agency lie making you join his league of villains against your will. You couldn’t escape either, you were stuck. He threatened to decay your loved ones so of course you decided to comply with whatever he wanted you to do. You really had to stop trusting strangers and seeing the good in people no matter what.. it was a bad habit of yours. Shigaraki still lets you go to UA but only so you can bring him information from within, the students their quirks your schedule and other important information. He made you a traitor. You felt guilty towards your classmates and teachers, but sadly you had no choice. “Look Y/n I found this videogame that looks like so much fun to play.” Shigaraki’s raspy voice sent a shiver down your spine. “And you’re showing me because?” You ask confused not understanding why he was showing you this game. You didn’t even play videogames. “Well dummy I wouldn’t have made Kurogiri summon you if this was a one player game but sadly it isn’t so I need you to grab the second controller and play with me.” Shigaraki says annoyed as if he was answering the most obvious question. “Well then why won’t you just play your game with Kurogiri?” You say returning his energy. “Because I don’t want to play with him.” Shigaraki says with a huff. In that moment he looked like a spoiled brat to you. “Okay I guess this isn’t the worst you’ve asked of me.” You say as you grab the other controller. After a few minutes of Shigaraki winning and geeking out on you, you started to realise that he wasn’t so bad after all. It was really amusing to see his eyes light up after he accidentally started a new cut scene. Or the way he gasped when he found a hidden Easter egg. His reaction reminded you of a misunderstood soul that was finally getting the chance to heal their inner child. “You know I don’t think you’re that bad for a villain.” You blurt out before you could rethink your words. The confused look on Shigaraki’s face made you continue. “I mean I expected you to be more mean and scary, you know.” Shigaraki places his controller on the coffee table in front of him. “And I expected you to resent me more, but for some odd reason you don’t.” Shigaraki says with his head tilted to the side as if he was trying to read you. “You know Y/n you’re and odd one.” Shigaraki says almost sounding fond. You smile at his words. “I think you’re odd too Tomura Shigaraki.”

Generalheadcanons:

💘You two have a "girl's night" together where you watch horror movies, do skin care, and eat a bunch of snacks.

💘He uses his quirk as an excuse for you to hand feed him. (Such a brat) and you believe him.

💘He would kill anyone that’s mean to you (yandermode activated).

💘He is a picky eater and nags you about it. (“You know I don’t like this.” Or “You should have made me something else.”)

💘Loves it when you bake for him.

💘 You like to grab your makeup kit and draw Shigaraki a pair of eyebrows.

💘You also apply lipbalm on this man’s crusty lips.

Other possible matches: Tamaki Amajiki I'd appreciate it if you'd reblog this, and I hope you've enjoyed reading it <3

[mageofseven]

OOH this matchup thing is so cool!!

If you don’t mind doing one for me I would be ecstatic!!

My pronouns are she/they. I’m very much an introvert and prefer being alone or with 1 or 2 people but in social settings I’m actually super bubbly and friendly. I have been told on multiple occasions that I have big golden retriever energy and I’m always smiling.

I’m a huge nerd and wear almost exclusively graphic tees featuring my favorite games or bands. My hobbies include video games, knitting, and cooking (if I don’t have to do the clean up afterwards) I also have pretty bad adhd so my brain is always going super fast and I bounce around to a bunch of different things at once. Im also super clumsy (I’m 5’11 so I think my limbs are just too long) and forgetful so I need somebody who can be my own personal memory bank lol.

I appreciate you and I love this concept thank youuu

(ps if you don’t wanna do this you can totally just delete it I don’t mind)

Have you really not heard of matchups before? They've been around for a long time, a decade at minimum.

Do people not do them much anymore? Have they died out? I'm genuinely curious now.

But anyway! I know you said you need someone to be your memory bank, but in truth, your info screamed one man in particular.

Because of this

I pair you with...

Mammon

Yeah, sorry, this man doesn't have the best memory. But hey! You two can be forgetful together hehe.

Mammon would love your golden retriever energy. You just radiate positive vibes that this man is addicted to. You make him so great about himself and keep him in such a great mood. Any time with you is a great time and this man appreciates you so much for that.

Mammon also enjoys video games so you share this in common! He loves cooking too but...yeah, don't let him cook. Just have him clean up after you lol

I have an headcanon that Mammon also has ADHD and dyslexia but we're aren't talking about that right now. Y'all can bounce around together and hopefully manage to get somethings done with some tag team work on the hard days.

I see Mammon as a partier, but he'd never try to force you to go to any with him. Honestly, I can see him going to parties less because he'd rather spend time with you.

This man has been very lonely, but with you here, everything is much more fun and he honestly feels more understood by you than by anyone, even his brothers.

So thank you for making Mammon feel seen and cared for!

I hope you both live happily together 🥰

Hi, when you get the chance I would love a romantic Overwatch matchup!

I go by they/them but I'm pronoun apathetic with a dislike for feminine terms, omnisexual with a preference for more masculine presenting people

I can be pretty chill but I have severe ADHD and all those not so fun little quirks, once I am passionate about something I am deep in that interest for a while, I'm the therapist friend but I would really like someone to comfort me after everything is said and done, a lot of self doubt but to others I seen pretty confident and outgoing, I'm often found listening to music (I'm all over the place with genres so here's my playlist if you'd like to take a look💕 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4jN2o9ifTehuehJHauYgIg?si=Lw70wjgOQ4-HTlVOLIcK4A&utm_source=copy-link ) , I'm very clingy and physically affectionate but I also love giving thoughtful gifts that are handmade most of the time cause I love crafts and little projects.

If you have the time it be really cool if you could make a mini fic for my matchup

Thanks again for letting me know requests were open!

omg hi!!!! im so glad you could get a request in and of course!! i really wanted you to get your matchup in here because i never get overwatch requests lol. I think I have a great character for you though it took a lot of deciding lmaooo

the character I chose for you is...

TRACER!!

you both have almost the same energy, however, she is a little more hype

you both have ADHD (at least im pretty sure she does, i dont know if it was confirmed though) and are able to relate and actually help each other when things get really rough

she presents herself in a very masculine way through her outfits and hair, so I thought it would be perfect!

she loves to listen to you when you get hyperfixated on something

literally had heart eyes when you start going on and on about something you love

she will go to you for comfort when she is feeling down or just outright exhausted, but she will 100% be there for you too listening to everything you need to tell her

she will hype you up all the time telling you how good you look or how amazing you are and it makes you blush and makes you 10x more confident

if you make her a handmade gift, she will cry because it means so much to her

please be clingy because she's the same way and you two will literally be hugging everywhere lmao

just know that she loves you and will care for you all the time

and per your request, here is a little fic :)

MINI FIC

"I'm tired," you heard Tracer's iconic British accent as she walked into the room, her hair a complete mess. "y/n, hold me."

She blipped over to you and fell into your arms as you giggled, falling on the couch behind you. "Tracer, babe, you could give me some warning next time before you teleport into my arms." But you hugged her anyway, pulling her closer into your lap. "Long day, babe?"

Tracer just nodded into your chest, holding you close like you could run off at any second. "Tired."

Her voice was muffled in your chest, so you just ran your fingers in her hair, feeling her fall asleep.

"I love you, Tracer." You said under your breath, kissing her on the forehead.

"Love you too." Tracer's sleepy voice said, her eyes still closed with a smile.

hello ! i was wondering if i could get a romantic star wars and harry potter matchup if that's alright ?

im 19 years old and bisexual. i have shoulder length wavy brown hair, and i wear glasses. im about 5'7 and pretty thin

i'm an ambivert, and can make conversation well when it's needed. i'm pretty smart but pretty slow if that makes sense 😭 on the outside, i seem quiet and reserved, but once i get to know someone, i can talk a lot. i have adhd and that can make it difficult for me to focus on one thing at a time, but overall i'm pretty good at learning new things

i play bass and collect action figures. music is a big thing in my life, as i play in a small band with a few friends from my university. some of my favorite artists are system of a down, blink-182, weezer, and slipknot. i play video games in my free time and i would say i'm not too bad at them. my love languages are physical touch, quality time, and gift giving. i love giving loved ones small things that remind me of them, and i love being close to others.

thanks so much and have a great day !

Yaya! Thank you so much for requesting this matchup!!! I hope you enjoy it! <333

Star Wars;

Rey:

🌌 You met Rey with Poe and BB-8, and you instantly felt some sort of connection with her, though it took you a while to warm up enough to her; it was the same for her too, she's got trust issues

🌌 When you did talk to her, you fell; you fell hard

🌌 It didn't take long for the two of you to confess your feelings for one another, and you both welcomed the start of a wonderful relationship

🌌 After the fall of the First Order, you and Rey finally had enough time to spend with each other, doing almost everything together

🌌 In the mornings, you'd wake up in each other's arms, laying there and just feeling at complete ease; you loved waking up in each other's arms and not having to get ready for anything or be anywhere

🌌 Rey would sometimes play with your hair, brushing her fingers through it as you hummed a song you were working on; you loved it whenever she played with your hair or braided it, it was calming and always made you feel like you belonged somewhere

🌌 When she was done with your hair, she'd wrapped her arms around your neck from behind, leaning down to place her chin on the top of your head; you especially loved when you'd tilt your head up and meet your lips with hers

🌌 You love training with Rey, her sometimes letting you use her lightsaber, and teaching you how to use it; she would wrap her arms around you, her hands covering yours on the hilt of the saber as she softly tells you how to swing or even cut a boulder in half

🌌 If you are ever stressed about something, Rey would just take you in her arms, softly squeezing you; you would do the same for Rey, taking her in your arms, listening to her heartbeat slow and finally calm

🌌 Rey thinks you are the greatest person in the galaxy, she says that to you every day, making sure that you know it (she's smitten), but most importantly that she loves you; she loves you so much that she feels like she has no room to breathe or exist without you in her life, she loves the way you make her feel safe, she can't imagine a world where she wouldn't have you by her side; she's never been happier in her entire life

🐾 You had known of Sirius through Remus, an old friend of yours who was married to your best friend Nymphadora, also known as Dora to close friends like you

🐾 You finally met him after he escaped, during the battle, having saved his life; for you, once your eyes met his, it was love at first sight

🐾 Sirius didn't know what to really think of you at first, he was very thankful and grateful for you saving his life, but when he got to know you, he thought that perhaps there was something more to you than what meets the eye

🐾 Sirius found the age gap to be… A bit awkward, him being seventeen years older than you, but he wasn't sure if it was a good idea to start anything with you; though when you looked at him… Sirius felt himself starting to melt; no matter how hard he tried, there was something about you that just made him want to be near you and spend all day with you

🐾 Eventually, the two of you began a relationship, and it was perfect; although not everything went according to plan at first, you couldn't ask for anyone else, Sirius was charming, sweet, funny and so much better than you ever imagined

🐾 After the battle, and after some healing on both your parts, Harry moved in with you and Sirius; it was fun having the kid around, and it was bittersweet when he left to find a place of his own with Ginny (the wedding was beautiful)

🐾 Sirius loved buying you things, a small habit he had gotten over the years, but he loved the smile you would get on your face whenever he bought you something new or thoughtful; whether that be a new journal, new quills, or even a Muggle Bass, you loved all the gifts he gave you

🐾 He even bought you a radio once where you would listen to music often, Sirius taking you in his arms and swaying with you to the classical music; you loved feeling his arms around you, the way your head fit perfectly into the crook of his neck and shoulders, the way he smelled like lavender, mahogany wood, and his own natural musk

🐾 One of your favorite things about Sirius is his hair, you loved how long, curly, and black it is; you loved to run your fingers through it while you were read on the couch; Sirius's head laying on your lap, his eyes closed and a blissful smile on his face, (most of the time he'd lay in your lap as a dog, which you thought was funny yet sweet)

🐾 You love learning new things with Sirius, especially if he taught you them, like the constellations, the meaning behind some of his tattoos, or even the little secrets he had tucked away inside his heart; you loved hearing old stories from his time at Hogwarts, learning about James, Peter, Remus, and himself

🐾 You loved Sirius unconditionally, always believing in his goodness and always willing to help him, no matter what; Sirius loved you to the moon and back, and never failed to remind you every morning and night of that fact, no one could compare to you

[enluv]

heyy back again im twirling my hair rn. bc im so delusional, could i please request a matchup for the event?? to follow the format: name's vienna and we're the same age and an idol with my personality irl..... i would say the closest i can think of is hueningkai actually?? im not really sure my brain is blanking on me rn. i would say it's part kai part eunchae part irene. so sorry for the confusion lol it's hard bc personalities never truly stay the same everywhere </3 my favourite song rn could prolly be plastic by moses sumney!! im a scorpio sun and i love photography!!

you don't have to take this up and if you do, then absolutely take the time!! muah ty and i wish you a lovely lovely rest of the week!! happy 3k <3

hi vie!! thank you for sending in for my event <3 i am so excited to give you a matchup hehe!!

after much consideration, the match I have picked for you is...lee know!

my reasoning? - I’ve heard from friends that the best company a Scorpio can have is another Scorpio! You have this side to you that I’ve seen for a while now since we’ve known one another for almost two years! It’s like you’re very serious and you take what you do super seriously like your writings are no joke, they’re amazing and when you put your mind to something, you get it done! I think you and lino are similar in that way, both hardworking people who enjoy what they do. He’s so work oriented when it comes to being an idol like it’s no secret that he practices for hours and has been a professional dancer for years now, and it reminds me of the same drive you show on here! I hope that makes sense, it’s been a pleasure to watch you grow as a writer and friends <3

small drabble: minho’s been at it for hours now, he just can’t seem to get this one move the way it should be, he knows he should take a break soon but he can’t seem to let this one go, that is until the door to the practice room swings open at full force hitting again the back wall. he freezes and turns, seeing you fuming, and his heart drops. “I’ve been calling you for two hours” your voice is calm and collected and he knows then that he’s in big trouble, for months you’ve asked him to call you when he felt like nothing was going right, and every time he ended up like this, stuck in the practice room for hours, there you were after to coddle him, but not tonight, tonight you’d remind him that he needs to take a break and if it happened again he’d get more than a smack to the head!

Hii there!! Im soo excited to get bnha matchup! Can i have a matchup with bnha boys please?

Im an infj, my hobbies are crafting, drawing, and workout.

I guess im a calculative person, i manage my money very strictly. I can be very sociable with my friends but it tends to drain me soo much when i get alone. I like to have a solo date by myself and im not afraid to explore alone. Im self aware with my surrounding and i have tendency to judge people before i talk with them so that i can predict which is the right way to behave with them

Thank you soo much! I wish you a happy day🥰🥰

Hi hi there anonie, thak you so much for sending in a match-up request! I know you sent this ask in a while ago so I hope you still end up seeing this somehow, I had fun writing this and I hope you enjoy it too if it reaches you! :)

I’d Match You With: 

Shoto Todoroki! 

Reasoning:

Shoto’s very similar to you in a lot of ways when it comes to needing a mix between alone time and time to socialize, and the two of you work well together and complement one another’s personalities and needs pretty well overall.

Headcanons About Your Relationship:

- Shoto notices how you’re always very careful and calculative when it comes to your money, so oftentimes he will buy you things so that you don’t have to stress about it. Not because he thinks you can’t pay for yourself, he knows you’re perfectly capable of managing your money how you please, but he has the means to treat you and he likes giving you gifts or buying you meals sometimes, it just makes him happy to see you happy and not have to be so careful about your decision-making :>

- Shoto absolutely loves spending time with you, but he’s also someone who needs some time alone to unwind every once in a while, so he’s more than happy to let you have your own alone time when you need it. You can go on a little adventure on your own, and he’ll rest or read a book at home until you’re both recharged and ready to spend more time together!

- Shoto likes doing cute little crafts with you! Honestly at first he wasn’t sure about the idea and wasn’t all that interested, but it was something you cared about and something you could do together, so he decided to give it a try and ended up really enjoying it! :)

- I’m not gonna lie, though, he kinda sucked at it at first lol. He had all the parts and steps correct, he just didn’t have the artistic touch to make them look as cute as you do at first, but he gets better with time :> And he loves giving you the little crafts he makes once he’s done, he’s really proud of his efforts and wants to share them with you!

- Shoto honestly just isn’t a super artistic person in general, so he’s not much of a drawer/artist himself. But because he doesn’t know much about art, he finds it really fascinating to watch you while you work! He loves watching the ways you use and layer different colors, it’s such a fascinating process to him and he’ll happily watch you draw whenever you’re willing to let him

- And if you ever gift him any of your drawings, especially if it’s a drawing of him or something like that, he will literally cherish it forever :’) That drawing is absolutely getting framed and placed on his bedside table so he can see your wonderful work all the time, I have no doubt about this

- Shoto is totally down to work out with you! He knows he needs to stay in shape and well-trained in order to perform his duties as a hero course student well, but for a long time training had negative, painful associations for him because of his father, so working out and training with you turns the experience into a much more positive, productive one for him :)

- Shoto’s the type of boyfriend to tell you about every little accomplishment he has, he just wants to make you proud of him aaaa he’s literally the cutest :’) Any time he makes progress in one of his workouts or anything like that he’s telling you almost immediately, even if it’s completely mundane lol pls just tell him how amazing he did and that you’re proud of him <3

CHRISSY CUNNINGHAM

when chrissy locks eyes with you for the first time, her heart beats faster than it ever has. she feels like it’s the first time she’s ever been able to see clearly her entire life. it’s not until you tap her shoulder to bring her back to reality that she realizes you’re right in front of her. you two got paired up for a class project, and now for an entire month, you had to study the human mind and how complex it works. you don’t know how grateful chrissy is that you were willing to repeat the assignment to her, because she was NOT listening to the teacher the moment you sat beside her.

chrissy had always known she liked girls the way she shouldn’t. she tried her best to distract herself with men, and with jason especially, she felt like she’d been getting somewhere. but when every single weekday, she sat beside you and got to know you more, nothing seemed to work anymore and she couldn’t handle the feeling. oh, and don’t even mention the fact you two not only were together period six every day- but now, every saturday was study day for you two. chrissy felt like she was going crazy.

somehow, a discussion landed on sexuality. with how close you two became in the past month, chrissy felt comfortable confiding in you about how she felt about girls but never mentioned anything about how she felt about you in particular. you weren’t just any girl, you were you. you were the beautiful awsten she could never seem to get her mind off of. wait a sec, why are you making that face? why do you look so confused?

-

“Oh my goodness, did I just-“ Chrissy put a hand over her mouth and a hand over her heart. “I’m so sorry, I can’t believe I just said that out loud, I-I was just- I was talking and… that all came out. I’m really sorry, jeez I’m so sorry!”

“Chris, it’s okay,” you reassured, a soft smile on your face as you bashfully looked away to gather your own thoughts into words. “Um, I actually… I really, really do like you. I just, I didn’t know what to say considering you’re with Jason and everything, and the fact you’re just… you. Not like that’s a bad thing! It’s just, well, I don’t want to lose you. Not over something silly like this.”

Chrissy looked back up at your eyes, her hands still placed where they were previously, but she put them by her sides and stood up in front of you. You were very visibly confused until you were pushed backward from your sitting position on your bed to a now laying one, Chrissy’s arms wrapped around you as she hugged you with her face in the comfort of your neck.

“You won’t lose me. You’ll never lose me, Aws.” Chrissy smiled into your neck. You happily hugged her back in a more comfortable position, the two of you laid there for the next few minutes. You could worry about Jason and everything else later, but now- it felt too perfect to let this feeling go.

Hi hi! I would like to request a match up for genshin :> preferably male characters. My prounouns are she/her and I just recently turned 18! I'm a cancer and also an INFP. My height's 173 cm or 5'8 in ft.

Recently, I've been so invested in drawing and reading novels. I'm a student, definitely pursuing art. I'm terribly awkward and much more comfortable with silence since I don't like loud things everyday. Tho my music playlists are either rock, experimental or incredibly soft TT. For an ideal date, I would like to just see the person and observe them. I'm sometimes very clingy skinship wise and childish or very distant but not in a bad way. I like to show affection through actions since I'm very bad at speaking. And I can't think of anything nowww.

That's all, thank you so much :>

Hello! i am sooo so so so so sorry its been literally over a YEAR since you requested <////3

I went on a break and left heaps of requests unanswered </3

But despite the wait, I really hope the matchup lives up to your expectations! thank you so much for your patience!!

Warnings!!: May be spoilers to Genshin Impact! Otherwise uts's pretty chill

I match you with...

Albedo!

I thought of this matchup almost INSTANTLY

You and Albedo met in the knights of Favonius library (trying to find a book on art techniques)

You both went to grab the same one smh

And that’s how your friendship started! And from there a relationship eventually grew

You often go with Albedo up to his cave lab on Dragon Spine

You’re the only reason he may consider getting doors to his lab

Often you two will sit in comfortable silence while he’s working so he can focus, and in the meanwhile you usually read or draw

However if he’s done working the two of you are likely to talk nonstop about whatever comes up, whether that's art, a book you’ve been reading, or one of his experiments!

If one of you aren’t feeling up to talking, the other person will keep going on about something while the other listens

Or if you’re both out of it you just cuddle<3

Klee ADORES you! 

You often look after her while Albedo works

However sometimes she’s just a litttllleee too hyper for you and you get drained

But don’t worry, Albedo notices and comes to the rescue

“Klee? Would you like to draw something for (Lee)? Or how about you both draw something for each other? I’ll set a timer and you can both focus on your drawings until it runs out.”

“Okay!! I’m going to draw Dodoco!”

“...Thank you”

“:)”

You know those dates you see on tiktok where you each draw something on a canvas and then swap every 10 minutes? 

Yeah

You’d do that

And you know how people annotate a book and give it to someone as a gift?

That too

The two of you are used to staying together in the lab, usually cuddling together to keep warm in the cold

In the Winter you tend to have trouble sleeping in the even more intense cold

Fear not. Albedo will hold you and play with your hair until you fall asleep

Honestly y’all are so used to sleeping together in the lab that you’re just used to sleeping together and probably slowly moved in with each other and before you knew it, you were living together

Overall, it's a very understanding relationship built on a mutual trust and respect

And although he may not say it often, rest assured

“I love you (Lee). More than should be possible.”

I hope you enjoyed! Again im so sorry for the wait!! i cant apologise enough!

hellooo, i’ve never tried this before but i would like to have a matchup as well \o/ i really like your blog and this is my first ask (also english is not my first language— so sorry if i make anything wrong

i’m an intp-t and my hobbies mainly include reading and playing games, i’m bisexual and use she/him pronouns!! i also have hardcore depression anxiety and adhd lmao :,) i’m unintentionally sarcastic which might come as rude to some, that’s ironic considering that most people see me as very trustworthy since i have a tendency to try to help everyone around me as much as i can. besides my two roommates i also have a cat who i love very much :,)

when i was younger i used to be more sociable and honest but through the years and after certain events i developed hard trust and commitment issues(which makes kinda hard for me to maintain a relationship but i’m trying my best!!); now that i’m older i’ve turned into someone very closed up, nowadays i pretty much have only two real friends(even if im invited to uni parties often help). im a medicine student and my main goal is to become a forensic psychiatrist in the future, tbh i had a golden child syndrome and seek academic validation constantly(talk about being a high achiever) lol this kinda makes it hard for me to let go of “control” of stuff and lowkey a workaholic, being stubborn as well is not a great addition. i’m pretty self conscious towards my looks and personality but try my best to not let it show, that comes from my family/“friends” from high school making fun of me bc of my freckles and many scars.

i can play the piano, speak 3 languages and have a waaay younger brother who i used to be a mother figure for, even if we lost contact after some time due to my complicated status with family. i can be very competitive and sort of a sore loser hahaha, however i really admire people that are better than me at something and try to learn with them(so i can surpass them /hj). even if i have a hard time relaxing i can be very outgoing with the ones that i trust(my only two besties lmao) almost becoming a whole different person, i love to make them laugh and make sure that they are healthy :))

welp, i don’t know what else to say but again i really like your blog and thank you for sticking around w the fandom <3

I match you with...

Jumin!

You're somebody that's gone through a lot of things through life but you don't let it bring you down. You know that there are things that have to be done and you don't hesitate to do them. You know that it's going to be for the better if you do what has to be done, even if it feels like you're overwhelmed. You have struggled and fought to be where you are in life and you know that tomorrow is going to be better than yesterday because all the hard work you're putting in now. Even if it's hard to see it on the surface, you want to believe that there is something good common next.

That's why somebody like you goes perfectly with Jumin. You both share a lot of the same issues but you deal with it in different ways these different ways are confounding and confusing to the other but that does not mean that you are not able to make a lasting bond out of it. It's simply means that you get to see that there's another side to the way that you deal with your emotions and that if you allow yourself to trust in others, you can feel a lot better. The two of you together are able to work through so much and you're for the better for it. Not just for your relationship but for your personal strength. Since you're going to be butting heads, it means that you challenge each other in a way that opens up the door to grow.

Day 140: Friday May 20, 2022 - “New Phone”

Earlier this week while on the phone with my Grandpa in Michigan my phone started making odd noises.  And when I hung up, it immediately lost cell service that wouldn’t comeback. - no more texting my Dad about his fantasy baseball matchup.   Then the screen started wigging out and by evening it had flickered to black only to come back to life in the morning, be gone by lunch, back by dinner and gone again the next day.   Um - obviously the death call was coming for it.  Luckily Verizon was running a free iPhone deal and so I decided today to go for it and trade in my dying guy for a shiny new toy.   Before I made the move, the juices of my old iPhone 11 gave me one last opportunity to back everything up to the cloud making the setup on the new phone practically seamless; same screen photo and everything.   Did anything even change? In fact, by morning, I barely even remember it was a new phone.  Got a new hunter green Otterbox Defender to keep it nice as thats never done me wrong.   Only had the iPhone 11 for less than two years so Im a little disappointed it didn’t last longer since I didn’t have an accident to blame this upgrade on.   But ever since upgrading from my old blackjack to my first smart phone almost 10 years ago, I’ve been brand loyal to iPhone and its hard to imagine that will ever change.

Song: Flatland Cavalry - Gettin By

Quote: “...But the heart is not a computer that can be upgraded so quickly and easily with the latest version of love. Love cannot be sealed hermetically inside a tight box like any other on the store shelf; even though the word itself is in public domain, its quality is not. Love cannot promise a full customer satisfaction garanteed or a whole lifetime of dreams shared refunded, with no questions asked. Love cannot be agreed to in terms and conditions as quickly as the "Next" button being clicked. These unspoken terms and conditions grow and develop over time until it gets very messy, and no one remembers how such a mess of accusation and anger was able to overshadow their pure ecstasy of love, the spark between two people turning on a new operation system of togetherness for the first time. Love is always beta; never a golden master. If love were a computer, constant bug reports and subsequent fixes are the name of the game, and there are many unexplained breakdowns. The heart is too stubborn for explanations and too impatient for forgiveness, and there is usually no one at the tech support line. Forgive me stan, if I've crashed so often. It's just to hard to boot up to a whole new future without you. I am an empty monitor in search of a "hello.” ― Raymond Luczak

warnings: being trapped, panic attack?, spoilers

[503 words]

———————————————————

it had been a stormy day, meaning Pepa wasn’t in a good mood, the last few days had been thunder and rain besides of course Antonio’s gift ceremony. You had been cleaning up your family’s kitchen while they were out buying groceries when you heard a crack outside,

you peaked out the window when you saw the street split down the middle, creating thin crevices in the ground, you watch as a crack branched off from the main one, rapidly making its way to where you were standing. your eyes widen as you felt your house get unstable, you had tried to get out the door but debri had fallen in front of you, blocking the way, you stumbled back as the wall to your left crumbled at your feet, you ran deeper into your house trying to get away from the collapsing walls, you ran into your room and crouched down to the ground, holding your hands above your head and you felt the falls cave in, debri hit all around you scraping your hands and tearing your dress a bit. you heard some last rocks falling and you open your eyes, cautiously uncovering your head, you see you were surrounded by debris and broken pieces of concrete, you had scrapes all along your arms and legs and you could lift your head much because of the concrete above you, you were scared to scream in case of concrete crushing you, you were trapped. they would think you got away, not bothering to look in the pile of rubble for you. you felt your breathing get heavier but you couldn’t hear it, all you could hear was a high pitched ringing, your eyes fogged with tears. all you could hear was that goddamn ringing!

“amor?!” until you heard someone, your novio. he was looking for you, your love called your name many times, but you couldn’t answer them, you could hear debris moving as him and another made their way to you. the crack of light you could see was widened as you saw Luisa’s struggling face slowly lifting the concrete that was above you, Camilo then moved the one in front of you, almost creating an exit for you as he grabbed your forearms and pulled you out, Luisa dropped the concrete after you were far enough away from it. you looked back at her regaining her breath from lifting the heavy piece as your face was pulled to face the front and you felt kisses covering your cheeks and face,

“ay, i thought you were dead, amor! don’t scare me like that” he said when they finished covering your face, after he was done he pulled you close and hugged you, you hugged them back, stuffing your face into their shoulder as you let some tears finish flowing. Camilo felt his shirt get damp and lifted your head up, wiping your tears,

“ay, amor, it’s okay, you’re safe now” he held your face as you nodded. you were okay now.

———————————————————

i hope you like this!! sorry it isn’t very long :((
