#it probably still is but i promise i tried to fix it 😭

[awakenatmidnights]

one of my favorite ways to spend the time on this silly little app has to be looking up posts about songs or albums that i am currently obsessed with and see people sharing their love for them. i love it. i love seeing humans care so much about one song, each for multiple different reasons, to the point of writing so beautifully about their fondness for it and post it for strangers to see. it's like, you posted about this song in 2015 and your opinion about it resonates with me in 2024. i love it, please don't you ever stop.

Time for an old school blog post, Hello!

Just various updates about life and shows and clothes and some photos! Adding a read more cut because I talk too much 😊

Happy equinox everyone!! The mild weather has been wonderful for daily park walks. We have been taking our meals outside as often as we can to make the most of it before summer scorches the land and all life. The longer days allow for a lot more wandering too but the imminent return of the heat is also making the longing to move up north worse by the day. We miss the choppy ocean and seaside cliffs 😭 We love the silence and the rain and the nippy sea breeze!! it's like being suspended in early spring for half the year and a rainy autumn the other half, Ideal if you don't mind humidity, but that's what wellies and flat caps are for. We have been looking for properties to rent to show up everyday so for now we lie in wait.

Speaking of nature, a few months ago we discovered a free app called Plantnet that you use to take and upload photos of plants, trees, flowers and it will identify them for you. You keep a log with their locations and can share them too to help contribute to each local biodiversity database. It feels like a pokedex for plants. There are many apps like this one to choose from too. It's been so fun learning what all these plants are called and memorizing them! I recommend it, is like a little educational side quest to take on while stretching your legs and getting some fresh air. This is not an ad I promise lmao I just think it's neat! kind of sad feeling the need to clarify that.

This weather is also making me want to start making outfit posts again! It's been so long since I made any!! my winter wardrobe is mostly long wool coats or capes and boots so the inspiration wasn't there but now I'm ready to pull out all my stuff back from under my bed storage and experiment again 👏 I've also been meaning to share some of Nicolas outfits for ages too so there is more variety, could be fun!

Speaking of clothes, lately I've grown more and more frustrated with how poorly most clothes fit me to the point where I'm considering learning how to make them from scratch. I usually have to take in the tops and hem the bottoms but most things I try on are just built weird even if I fix the size, or maybe I'm built weird! I think it may be both. Nicolas also said he would love to learn along with me so we will probably embark on that adventure soon. OH and on a short tangent, I got myself a sort of binder-like top that flattens the chest a bit and I'm loving it! I'm very flat already but what little bust I do have has always bothered me when I dress and I've found I feel a lot more comfortable in this type of top. I'm glad I tried it out so if you feel similarly you may want to give it a go too, see how it feels!

On the media side of things we have also been watching more of David Tennant's work. We are still very much in love with him to an embarrassing degree, you can probably tell if you follow me anywhere, my likes on twitter alone give me away alksjdf and Nicolas isn't any better! if he used social media his would look the same lmao.

Since my last report we have watched and absolutely LOVED "There She Goes" we already want to watch it again honestly. The family dynamics for all his characters are always so real and refreshing!! Their relationship with their wives especially are always so believable in every series we've seen, the comfort and camaraderie, the banter and just friendship! You can tell they enjoy each other's company, it feels true. I love it so much!!

We also watched "Inside man" which was..a very stressful mess but David was incredible as always, also very hot and very pitiful which is always great, and Stanley Tucci was on it! so that's also fun.

Then we rewatched season one of Good Omens and the first 4 seasons of Doctor Who, with all the extra content like the Confidentials, deleted scenes, video diaries and more, they are just so good!! our list of favourite episodes keeps growing, season four is incredible, we are loving all these seasons even more the second time around!! Now we are probably going to start watching either Classic Who or Torchwood, along with more of David's work. We were trying to pick what to watch during dinner the other day and Nicolas was like 'damn, David is not in this though, I miss him' and lmao same so now we just watch one show without him and one with him right after to cope 😂

OH we have also been doing more historical reenactment! Since the last one in the 20's we jumped back to Regency times. We have been putting our outfits together for a ball soon and hopefully another one in autumn in the UK 😊 1800 is the farthest back in time we've been yet so it's been fun doing research, finding pieces and learning the dances in class but also very hectic. I'll share more about this soon!

Then we also have a couple of 1900 events coming soon, so I'll be sharing more Edwardian looks as well, our favourite era!!

Anyway I think that's all for now, thanks for reading to whoever is doing so!! I know this is long and not a popular blogging format anymore but I enjoy it a lot, maybe some of you do too 🥰 I will reply to some messages soon, I'm so sorry I'm so bad at keeping up with those!! I've read them all and cherish every word 🥺 Thank you for supporting my art and shenanigans as always!! I hope you have a great week!!

he’s been probably lying

minatozaki sana & fem!reader // for u angst wanters out there damn 😭

sana has been, and will always be your soulmate.

she doesn’t know that though.

ever since you have fallen for the japanese woman, you have been starting to realize why you start to see a butterfly flutter around her in tones of lavender and rose pink.

like any other universe that lets soulmates find each other in ways of magic like this, she can’t see the butterfly that’s fluttering around her that you see.

so maybe that’s why even though your probably each other’s soulmates, she gets a boyfriend because she says to you that she hasn’t seen a butterfly like that at all.

he’s the farthest thing from being even a decent boyfriend to her, and you’re sure that the only thing keeping her there is his uncanny ability to pretend that they’re soulmates.

every night she asks him but he never mentions what’s the color of the butterfly.

tonight he forgets to hide his affairs, hide again from her observant eyes. forgets to hide the obvious truth in his lie.

so she always falls back into a habit that will break you into nothingness.

“i need you” she’s invasive, cunning, manipulative, mad, everything you know in a walking red flag that you saw in him. she’s become his walking mirror split image that haunts you deep within.

you fall for it though. every. single. fucking. time.

“stop it” you whisper, tears pouring down your eyes as you try to push her away “i’m not yours”

“just for the night” she whispers, kissing you every word she says, trying–no she’s begging, for you to give in this time again “just for the night”

“i don’t want just for a night anymore sana” you finally have the energy to gently push her away even with the alcohol in your system.

“i’m tired. please. when will you be tired of this set up. when will you be tired of his lies?”

“but he’s-“

you cut her off, cutting her final straw of delusions.

“i don’t care what he is”

sana wonders why she’s still with him even if she knows, and knows that you know something else.

“i don’t care what he represents”

wonders why she hasn’t fixed herself even after many promises to do so in quiet mornings of after. where she feels warmth and quiet into her world of loud noise.

“i don’t fucking even care that he’s your everything anymore”

she wonders why it’s you who gave up everything for her when she’s been giving you nothing

“he’s fucking lying to you” you seethe, yet the chokes the sobs tell her what mix of emotions you represent tonight “why aren’t you tried of that?”

the butterfly never leaves her, and for the first time in your life you wished it never appeared for this to be less complicated.

sana doesn’t reply, only tears slipping down, finally breaking her. she doesn’t even look at you, only around on your shoulders, wondering why it only showed up now.

that takes you enough time to leave the club, leave her alone with the butterfly she’s never going to see and for you to finally a chance of what it feels like to run away from this pain.

she looks at the butterfly on your shoulders until you disappear, the butterfly that speaks one answer to her million questions.

I wanna cry I’m so frustrated with school, only have a month left, and I’m failing out rn 😭😭😭 ANYHOO SMUT AS A DISTRACTION AM I RIGHT??

pairing: gender neutral reader x bsd men

nsfw warning: JUST DIRTY TALKING (no sex) SMUT BARELY ANY PLOT LOL reader is a brat, reader gets called out for masturbating when not allowed, reader gets caught with the scent still on their hands, bsd men with extremely good senses, degradation reader gets called a slut, brat, and bitch

You walked out of the bathroom stall, sighing as you felt just as worked up as before you tried to fix your issue. If anything, attempting to fix the pulsing in your pants on your own had only made it worse.

You had been ordered to not masturbate lately, it was a punishment for talking back and questioning his power over you. Fortunately for you, he was feeling horny has hell during that little incident of yours, and decided that you’d still have sex, but you weren’t allowed to touch yourself until he said otherwise. That had been going on for weeks. You usually didn’t need to fix anything yourself, your boyfriend was amazing in bed, catching onto every detail about your body and what you enjoyed. You saw heaven every time without fail. But today, you couldn’t help it.

You had gone out to assist him in a new mission, apparently there was a rival group spreading information that would not be good for outside ears to hear or make assumptions about. You had excused yourself to the bathroom halfway through. You drew yourself to tears desperately trying to move your hand the way he does to get that release, but you failed. Miserably. You were horny beyond belief all day, but you were in the middle of a job! There’s no fucking way you could have asked him for help without crumbling with shame. You stared into the mirror, splashing your face with cold water after rinsing your hands with soap and water.

You took a deep breath, and walked back out to join your lover at his side as he listened to a young man explaining some gibberish that you couldn’t focus on at all. He thanked the man, who bowed and turned away. He then turned to you, and raised an eyebrow.

“You were in there for a bit, are you feeling ok dear?”

You grinned, and quickly changed the subject like an idiot, “Yeah, I wasn’t feeling too well. It’s all good now, I just needed a few minutes. What new information we got?”

You forgot your boyfriend can see through any of your excuses.

He turned to face you fully, lifting a hand to cup your cheek. “Are you sure? Not burning up or anything?” He moved his hand to the other side of your face, supposedly checking to make sure you weren’t sick. You giggled, putting your hand on his cheek to reciprocate, rubbing your thumb over his smooth skin reassuringly.

“Yes baby, I promise I’m ok.”

His eyes quickly darkened, pulling you close to him with his hand which slid to the side of your neck from your cheek, making you squeal in surprise as you tried to remove your hand from his face. He moved fast as always, gripping your arm and placing your hand back onto his face.

“You’re a lying bitch.”

You blushed, profusely, eyes widening as you cursed yourself for not taking extra precautions. Dammit. How could you have underestimated that from him? You probably subconsciously did it on purpose you slut

“…..I-I don’t..”

His grip on your hand tightened, bringing it to his nose as he looked down into your eyes, breathing in deeply as his nose slowly traced up all the way to your finger tips.

“Mmm. I can smell it on you.” His voice sounded deeper and angry, even in barely a whisper. Adrenaline and pure embarrassment swarmed your tummy as he gently separated each of your fingers, smelling each one at a time while your face just burned warmer and warmer. You saw him break for only a second, eyebrows furrowing, the scent clearly turning him on. He pulled you closer so he could whisper in your ear.

“Don’t you try to get out of this now dear. How was it? Did you work yourself up more for me? Hm? Just so I can break you properly later? You did this on purpose didn’t you? Dirty fucking brat.” His tone was mocking, accentuating his last two words. You felt yourself melting on the inside. He could sense the throbbing in your pants just by being close to you, smirking wildly next to your neck; his lips barely hovering over your skin. He huffed out a small chuckle, sending shivers down your entire body.

“Feel that. Relish the burn and ache for me. We’re going to continue this job, and you’re going to be a good little thing until we get back.”

You caught a breath in your throat, nodding your head. You didn’t want to dig yourself a deeper hole.

His gaze darkens. “Hm? Is that understood? I need to hear an answer, slut.”

“Yes, yes sir I understand.” You managed with a sigh.

“Good. Now-“ He suddenly pulled away and got back to his work, grinning as if he didn’t silently promise to destroy you later. You gulped loud, praying to god that no one in that building witnessed that interaction.

Usahara Tobikichi in love with f!Reader headcanons (sfw and smutty)

(look at this official art by gaku kaze, why is he so cute/hot?!)

SFW:

Usahara is (to borrow a trope title) a Casanova Wannabe. He likes getting attention from women and wishes he could pull off the playboy persona; the idea of being irresistible to women is a nice daydream, especially considering he seems to be consistently overlooked in comparison to guys like Kumatani and Uramichi

Despite having dated before, relationships never quite seem to work out, whether it be due to Usahara's partners not wanting to stick around after realizing how tactless and irresponsible he is or Usahara stops putting in the effort to keep the relationship afloat. He’s not intentionally mean or careless, but truly good intentions can only make up so much for his flaws.

With all that in mind, Usahara wants a girlfriend; he would take being devoted to one woman over being admired by dozens any day of the week, even if he’s a touch embarrassed to admit it.

In comes you: Usahara thinks you’re cute and immediately tries to get your attention. He doesn’t have high hopes, but hey, it couldn’t hurt to put himself out there. It doesn't take long before Usahara starts going out of his way to talk to you, firing off jokes and one liners at any given time, basically making a fool of himself for a hint of a smile from you. In a short amount of time this casual attraction develops into not so casual, knee buckling, sweaty palms crush. Usahara's heart will shatter into a million pieces if you decide to reject him.

You’re so cute, patient and sweet, being with you just feels right. Every time Usahara sees you that throbbing ache in his chest only gets worse. You’re probably too good for him, he knows it, everyone around Usahara won't stop reminding him when he looks at you with goo goo eyes and insists today's the day: he's going to take that leap and make a move on you. Usahara feels like he hit the literal jackpot when you agreed to go out with him. 

When the two of you begin officially dating, it’s like a light switch clicks in Usahara’s head. Maybe because he’s older and (at least somewhat) wiser, but he’s making genuine efforts this time around to not repeat past mistakes.

When you bring up the issue of his spending habits or taking a joke too far, Usahara will listen and work with you to fix the issue. It’s important to him you know he’s taking this seriously. Usahara wants to have extra money to spoil his girl and the idea of saying something to hurt your feelings gnaws at him. He's determined to be the best boyfriend you've ever had or will have.

He tries so hard for you; Usahara honestly didn’t expect to get so attached. It makes him a bit more reflective, but also paranoid of messing up; he's always been his own worst enemy. For how easy going and chill Usahara comes off as, he's way more insecure than you might guess.

Expect clinging and being spammed with texts at any given moment, maybe a phone call or a silly picture. Now that he has an adorable girlfriend, Usahara jumps at any opportunity to do couple things, go on all the cute dates, call you pet names, buy matching charms for your keys/phones, feed each other, etc. But because he’s so eager and already fairly attached, it can be a bit...much:

“Babyyyy, I had a rough day! 😭 I need cuddles. I’m free after work, can you come over tonight? 😘"

"How's your day going? I wish I could skip work and see you..."

"I miss you xoxo ❤️” 

"Babe, did you get my message? Are you busy?”

“Is everything okay?”

“Hey...are you mad at me?😥"

“Sorry, didn’t mean to spam you.”

“So, should I get food omw home? What are you in the mood for?” "

Besides me lol"

"....babe? Did I do something wrong?”

“I’m sorry, did I forget our 3 week anniversary? Month anniversary?”

"I'll make it up to you, I promise!"

“Baby???”  

And you will get all of these messages over the course of an hour or so. Yes, Usahara does calm down eventually; granted, he'll still spam you with texts now and then even after he feels more secure in the relationship, but usually only when he's out drinking and he wishes he was with you instead.

Usahara keeps things from exes partially if they’re useful and there is a sentimental aspect to it for him; that being said, if it makes you uncomfortable, Usahara doesn’t hesitate to get rid of anything you don't want him to hold on to. You’re with him now, and besides, Usahara needs room for all the things of yours he plans to keep at his place from now on.

And now, for the spicy stuff (and a little smut):

Eager to please is an understatement. 

Seriously though, Usahara struggles to keep his hands to himself, particularly when it’s just you and him. He doesn’t want to come on too strong or too desperate, but he wants you.

He’ll probably try to just go with whatever you’re ready for but if it was up to Usahara, he would never have to use his hand again. Not when he has your soft, warm body to touch and explore.

You’ll definitely need to tell Usahara exactly what you want, because again, he has a hard time going on instinct or reading subtle cues. And honestly, he kind of likes being bossed around in bed.

When you ask him to pleasure you and he gets it right, Usahara gets off on your praise and satisfaction. He’s practically glowing when he first makes you cum and the first time he gets to feel it raw and dripping down his dick makes him almost climax inside you right then and there.

Usahara’s preferred positions are either you riding him while he sits up right and he loses his mind a little when you suck him off. He just can’t get over what you’re doing to him; extra points if you let him cum in your mouth or even just on your face or tits. It’s dirty and you look so beautiful, Usahara can hardly believe you’re real. 

Praise kink aside, Usahara also gets off on soft domination, edging (maybe because he’s so impatient), dirty talk, and costumes, Specifically seeing you with thigh highs and a mini skirt or a too big shirt, with or without panties. 

Talk about fucking like rabbits. Usahara has a high sex drive and would fuck you every day if he could, but he understands you might not always been in the mood. He’s actually happy to just kiss or cuddle, anything to feel you and be close. His favorite thing to do is strip down to nothing and lay over you, head on your chest and hugging you tight while he listens to your heart beat. He’ll still be horny but it can wait. 

“I can’t help it.” Usahara whines, only half teasing as he starts rubbing himself against you, silently begging you to touch him. You have no idea how fast you turn him into a needy mess just by stroking his hair or kissing his neck; he thrives on your attention, he wants to lose himself in you. 

When he’s especially pent up, Usahara acts pussy drunk, doubly so if he’s been putting off the orgasm. Once you finally let him fuck you, your arms around his neck and thighs squeezing his hips, Usahara could cry from how good you feel. He can't believe he gets to be with you like this, that you want him as badly as he needs you.

“So good so good so fucking good, I wanna fuck you all night, gonna cum so hard in your pussy baby. Can I go harder? Pleeeease?”

Drool is trailing down the corner of Usahara’s babbling mouth; he practically melts into your body, head resting in the crook of your neck and arms wrapped tight around you while he fucks you, barely pulling out of your gushing pussy with each sloppy thrust.

“I wanna cum, can I cum inside again? Sorry, I need it, need to fuck you. I can’t stop, fuck, fuck, oh fuck!” Usahara gasps, eyes blown wide as you squeeze around him, not even really meaning to; he hugs you tighter, nuzzling your neck, pressing soft kisses to the love bites he made earlier. It's all you can do to not go utterly limp and just allow him to use you like a living doll. Usahara pants, whines and whimpers like puppy as he mindlessly fucks into you, begging for you to hold him closer and spread your thighs wider. 

“So pretty, so good to me...I love it, love you," Usahara sobs and clings closer, cock is buried as deep as he can go while he rocks his hips. "Baby, I'm really gonna cum, gonna cum, please, wanna cum, I love you so much, baby, can I cum inside? Please? Just one more time, please, please, please!?”

hello angel! I was wondering if you could write a Dennis Reynolds x fem!reader one shot where basically, reader is apart of the gang and has been for a while. Surprisingly, one time when Dennis was really angry, she calmed him down. Everyone was shocked the first, but slowly overtime got used to it. Dennis always ignored the warm feeling in his chest when she calmed him, but when he went on a date and got really mad and the girl tried to calm him down, he got even more angry than realised he liked reader??

sorry if it’s confusing 😭🫶

calmed | dennis reynolds x reader

read part 2 here!!

authors note: HEYOOO still alive. thank u sm for this prompt anon! tbh it was a bit of a challenge and i struggled 😭 i always struggle to write for dennis. i hope i did this idea justice cuz i love it. also this is my first iasip fic im publishing yayayay please send more requests for it im sooo deep into it rn. ive got a dee fic in the works rn.

cw: average dennis insanity ofc, swearing, mentions of D.E.N.N.I.S ing girls so yk, mentions of sex.

fic under the cut!

You can recall the first time you ever saw Dennis freak out.

"Idiots! Fucking idiots all of them!" Dennis ranted in his usual methodic tone. The gang wasn't phased, this sort of Dennis rant was something they'd become accustomed to. For you - the latest addition the gang - you had never witnessed one of Dennis' outbursts. It was probably that empathic nature or yours that made you want to act, to console him. And you did. Despite the gang's protests, once they noticed you about to leap into action. They knew it was better to just let Dennis ride out the anger and come down again. But you reached out and touched his arm. The gang collectively held their breath, expecting Dennis to bark out some obscenities in response, but it never came. The feeling of your hand on him made him turn to face you, to look at you.

"Dennis, it's okay, we'll fix this, I promise."

And he calmed. And took a deep breath.

"You know what? You're right. I can fix this." Dennis exhaled. Everyone was shocked,

"What the fuck just happened." Mac said blankly. In the whole time they had known him, Dennis had never been able to be pacified from one of these insane outbursts.

But then it became frequent, because Dennis's raging was frequent. Every time he would begin ranting and raving, you were able to calm him down. It was a voice of serene amidst the chaos. It went on for years like this, as you became part of the gang.

You were usually there hanging out with the gang when things would go wrong, and you'd be able to solve it and calm him down. But today, that wasn't the case. Today, Dennis was on a date.

Dennis was in the process of getting this woman to sleep with him, his stock procedure. But the date had been falling apart. It first started with his suit getting ruined. After dressing himself up in a nice blazer and shirt outfit, it was massacred by spaghetti after Mac spilt it on top of Dennis. Mac was haphazardly carrying it through their shared kitchen and failed to notice him.

"Christ Mac, what the hell are you doing!"

But that was okay. He could manage. He would just have to change. And although this did delay him, he could still D.E.N.N.I.S this girl. He could just say he was late because he was helping some old lady cross the street or looking after a stray kitten.

After successfully making it out of the door, he began to drive to the date. A cute restaurant not too far from his apartment, a picturesque rendezvous. But this was stalled even further by the lack of parking spaces available. Dennis groaned at threw his head back against the car headrest. After circling the block for what felt like the 100th time, Dennis decided to just park further away and book it to the restaurant. He settled for a tucked away corner of the city. Sure, it was far, but hey, at least it was a space.

Finally, after running to the entrance of the restaurant, he saw his date waiting, arms folded.

"Dennis! There you are! What took you so long?Are you.. okay? You look at a little out of sorts." Cadence spoke.

"Sorry. Sorry. Some old hags cat was- was trying to cross the road. I had to run from the other side of town." Dennis panted. He didn't expect the journey to have made him so debilitated. 'Not a perfect excuse, either. I might have messed up the wording..' he thought.

Dennis and his date, Cadence finally entered the restaurant. Dennis regained most of his breath and approached the host.

"Reynolds, table for two." He told the host.

The host scanned their notebook with a pen and searching eyes.

"Sorry, sir, I don't see anything for Reynolds here. Are you sure you booked for this restaurant?" The host replied. They lacked any kind of care for the situation, replying in a detached tone. Most likely years of working customer service had drained them.

"Am I sure I booked for- do you think I'm some kind of bumbling buffoon? Of course I fucking did!" Dennis snarled. Seemingly the frustrations from the evening were overflowing and spilling out.

"What do you take me for some kind of idiot!?" Dennis continued to bawl.

At this point, his date was getting embarrassed of his uncontrolled emotions. Cadence leaned in and touched his forearm. And maybe if it wasn't Dennis Reynolds she had performed this action on, it could have worked and soothed him.

"Dennis its okay, we can go eat somewhere else if you want?"

Immediately Dennis shook her grip off him.

"If I want? Why would I want to eat somewhere else when I made a fucking reservation here. What I want is to eat here!" He snapped, tapping his finger on the hosts notebook.

"Dennis, it's okay. We will do whatever you want." Cadence tried again.

"What I want? What I want is... well, what would you know about fixing shit! You're just..! Well, you're not.. not." Oh. And that's when it hit him.

What Dennis wanted now was not a reservation at this pseudo-rich restaurant. And he knew he certainly didn't want Cadence to try and comfort him. Her words didn't seem to hold any mindfulness or meaning... but yours did. She wasn't you. What he wanted was you. That's all he ever wanted. Everything else he had been doing for was a pathetic search to fill the void. The women he was trying to do, D.E.N.N.I.S, the dates he'd go on, the sex he would have, it all meant nothing.

All he wanted was you. A pure undivided love and something he had never felt before. Dennis had an unprofound realisation that he liked someone. Something most come to grips with in adolescents. But for him, that realisation was something he had never had. It made his heart ache and burn. He needed to act. He needed to call you and spill his heart out. Because no one was like you, and that's all he could think about as he turned on his heel and left the restaurant.

January Drama Wrap Up

January was a month of ups and downs (and some very big let downs) but over all I enjoyed what I watched. I tried out a new country's dramas and discovered some classics at the same time and I've built myself a pretty solid Currently Watching List to take me into February.

📊 The Stats

Total Dramas: 12

Currently Watching: 3

Completed: 4

Dropped: 2

On Hold: 3

My To Watch List: 60

🎭 The Dramas

🤼💰 Like Flowers in the Sand - Currently Watching

Like Flowers in the Sand is going to be another one of those k-dramas I am never going to be able to explain to my non k-drama watching friends without sounding like I've lost the plot a little.

"It's a small town drama about a minor league ssireum team and a wrestler who's been in a years long slump. There's also an investigation into a murder linked to match-fixing but that's kind of a side plot and it's linked to the wrestler's childhood friend who's reappeared incognito after disappearing mysteriously many years ago ... I promise it's good!"

It's probably not the drama for everyone but as someone who has historically loved sports centered k-dramas and who loved When Camilla Blooms this drama ticks so many of my boxes. I'm very excited to watch the complex relationships and politics of small town life be put under a microscope and dissected and I can already tell I'm going to love how morally grey all the characters are.

It also doesn't hurt that the ML is the biggest himbo to ever ever himbo and I love him and his empty brain to bits.

Prediction: I become a ssireum fan.

🕹️💌 Love For Love's Sake - Currently Watching

I've been staying away from K-BL these past few months because I've been struggling with their short run time but Love for Love' Sake lured me back in like a moth to the flame and I have no regrets.

Is Love For Love's Sake Perfect? No, there are definitely some pacing issues that are leaving me feeling very temporally confused about how quickly or slowly events are unfolding and the lower than average k-drama budget does show at certain points but, do you what?

I don't care.

I wholeheartedly love this drama and it's going to have to mess up its last 2 episodes Last Twilight style to change that.

The relationship between the main couple? Adorable. The openly gay leader of the school delinquents? We stan. The oddball friendship group forming because they're all slightly crushing on the ML? Sign me up! The addition of a glitch in the game that's starting to mess everything up? Horrifying and I love it.

Prediction: A new favourite K-BL is born and it's all thanks to this mf

🩺😭 Doctor Slump - Currently Watching

I'm watching this because it's on my Plan To Watch list and Netflix started playing the trailer after I'd finished watching an episode of The Way of the Househusband.

I won't lie, this is definitely the drama, out of all the dramas I'm currently watching, that I'm least certain I'll finish but, at the same time, I was pleasantly surprised by the first two episodes. Yes, it does do that typical comedy k-drama thing of mixing ridiculous over the top laughs with some incredibly difficult topics (because who doesn't want to be laughing hysterically one minute and then doing some deep self-reflection the next?) but so far the balance and the boundaries between the two moods has been relatively well struck and only time will tell if it manages to stay that way.

I appreciate tackling the topic of burn out and depression in a country that still champions overwork and mental fortitude above all else and I'm interested to see where it goes with that part of its arc. The "being framed for murder" I am a little less certain about, but it has definitely added a layer of intrigue to a story that would otherwise be relatively mundane and by the books.

As I said, time will tell if I continue to enjoy Doctor Slump but I'd say my only quibble with the drama so far is that I'm not sure "accused of (and potentially framed for) murder" and "suffering from depression due to burn out and work place abuse" quite fit what is normally meant by the word slump.

Prediction: Maybe I won't drop this half way through like I thought I would.

👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨🎥 BL Drama no Shuen ni Narimashita - Completed

My first Japanese BL ever and it was a good one. Yes, it was 3 episodes long, but it used its runtime perfectly. All of the main characters felt properly fleshed out (and the side characters were caricature enough that you only really needed one scene to know who they were and what they stood for), the pacing was great (it couldn't afford to drag but it didn't speed through scenes either), and it found the right balance between BL shenanigans and forrays into deeper messages. This was exactly what I needed at the time and, for someone who doesn't normally like mini-dramas that much, I enjoyed myself immensely.

Verdict: 8/10, I also want a life-size cardboard cutout of Aoyanagi to cuddle and hide behind when I open the door.

✒️💕 Cherry Magic, Japan - Completed

I'm planning to buy the manga.

I plan to watch the film next month (I never watch films).

I may have even checked out the fanfic scene in a bout of withdrawal.

Anyway, what I mean to say is that I get the hype, I really really do. This drama is fantastic.

Cherry Magic is one of those classics that you watch as a newbie and go "oh yeah I get why everyone is obsessed with this". The premise is novel and well executed, the characters are oh so easy to love, the main romance is so incredibly shippable, and the friendships are just as endearing.

I personally love the role Adachi's mind reading plays in shaping his relationship with Kurosawa and how the way it's handled means the audience feels what Adachi is feeling right alongside him. How can you not be charmed by the inner monologue of someone so sweetly and respectfully head over heels for you? But at the same time just because you're charmed, does that mean you like them back or is it just because you can see them at their most vulnerable? And what about once you're in the relationship? Do you give up the thing you know made it possible? Or do you pull back so you can't mess up once the crutch you rely on is gone?

There was so much quiet nuance to Adachi's and Kurosawa's relationship to each other and those around them and, when I one day sit down for a rewatch, I'm looking forward to unpicking them all.

Verdict: 8.5/10, Adachi and Kurosawa are going to be one of those couples that's impossible to leave behind. This is going to stick with me for a while, and once it's unstuck I'll just watch it again.

📸🌦️ Welcome to Samdal-Ri - Completed

I know some people thought the premise of Welcome to Sandal-Ri was unrealistic but, personally, I found it hard not to draw parallels between what happened to Cho Sam Dal in the drama and what happened to Kim Seon Ho in real life. Yes, the situations may differ somewhat (Sam Dal faces false accusations of work-place bullying by an employee while Seon Ho was accused of coercing his girlfriend into getting an abortion) but there were enough similarities (the media frenzy and the sheer intensity of the backlash, the scandals happening just as their careers peaked, the gradual revelation of what actually transpired) that I would be very surprised if there was no link at all.

For that alone, Welcome To Samdal-Ri had my attention from the get go. If this story were from a Western perspective, I would certainly have been much more wary of a story tackling false accusations (looking at you Euphoria) but from a Korean perspective, where celebrity culture is far more intense and volatile and in which false accusations have happened before and cancel culture can indeed end a career for even minor infractions (like dating), I wanted to see how it would be handled.

Ultimately I was satisfied, not wowed, not disappointed, satisfied. The show didn't dig that deep into the subject (personally I would have appreciated Sam Dal's case juxtaposed against another case in which the accusations turned out to be true) but it handled it deftly enough and felt "case-by-case" enough that I didn't feel as though it inadvertently gave off the message of "not believe anyone bringing accusations against celebrities".

Other than my own personal interest in the premise, Welcome to Sandal-Ri did a good job of holding my interest. In terms of overall vibe, it felt like a mix between (perhaps unsurprisingly) Hometown Cha Cha Cha (the idyllic small-town community filled with friends and loveable elders) and Our Beloved Summer (childhood lovers unfairly broken up but still pining for each other after years apart). The pacing was good, the characters loveable (I am now in love with Cho Hae In), and each episode felt like sinking into a warm bath for an hour.

Verdict: 8/10, it tackled an interesting topic while providing its audience with plenty of comfort and heart. It could have done without the love triangle though, just saying.

📃👩‍❤️‍👩 Out of Breath - Completed

I don't have too much to say about Out of Breath given it was 3 episodes long and less than an hour run time in total but I'm glad I watched it. Firstly, because it was nice to watch a (rare) Korean GL and secondly, because it managed to fit a lot into its short run time. Two break ups, a love triangle/unrequited love, cute dates, commentary on living queer in Korea, commentary on being out in Korea.... This show really had it all.

It was short, it was sweet, and it had a lot to say. I can't say I'd watch it again in a hurry, but I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a realistic portrayal of queer (and specifically) lesbian life in Korea.

Verdict: 7.5/10, it unpacked a lot in a short amount of time, the couple was extra cute too.

🫂💕 Cherry Magic Thailand - On Hold

I realised very early on into watching Cherry Magic Thailand that I'd probably get a lot more out of it if I watched the original first. I'm not normally someone who says watching the OG is necessary to watch the adaptation (in fact I normally rebel against that idea with a whole lot of passion) but in this case it became very clear that without watching Cherry Magic Japan first, I was missing important reference points and comparisons that were pretty key to understanding and appreciating that plot fully.

Anyway, I've now watched and loved Cherry Magic Japan so Cherry Magic Thailand is back on the menu, I just want to give myself enough time away that when I go back to it, it's with completely new eyes (and I'm excited for when that moment comes).

Verdict: On Hold until I can give it a proper fresh start.

🩺🍲 Cooking Crush - On Hold

I watched this at completely the wrong time. I struggle with rom-com dramas at the best of times but by now I should know that I absolutely should not try to watch one when I am going through a period of high stress.

I am not kind to rom-coms when I am stressed, even the ones I might otherwise enjoyed.

As it is, I initially dropped Cooking Crush because I was struggling to stay focussed enough to finish an episode and the characters were grating on me. Looking back, part of me thinks that my lack of focus and general irritability may have had less to do with the drama itself and much more to do with the fact I could barely focus on anything during that time period and that I had barely any spoons left to give people in my actual life, let alone fictional ones.

So...

Anyway, Cooking Crush has continued to come across my dash in gif, meme, and analysis form and I've realised that I actually really like what I'm seeing, enough so that I've moved it out of the "dropped" pile and into my "on hold" list so as to give it a second shot in the not so distant future (something that doesn't normally happen).

I genuinely think I might like this drama, I just need to make sure I'm in the right mindset for it first to give it a fair shot 💪

Verdict: On Hold until my next holiday.

🐍🦅 The Sign - On Hold

On paper The Sign sounds like it's right up my street, after all what's not to love about star-crossed lovers doomed by the threads of fate and history to lose each other?

But that's the thing, "on paper". In real life The Sign is well, messy and a bit too cop-heavy for my liking. Sure there are some great moments, Billy and Babe's chemistry is on fire, and it may have one of the best and most artistic sex scenes ever to grace the BL screens of the world but sexy times does not a good show make and I've found myself torn about whether or not I should keep going or just give up at this point.

To help me decide I've taken the "on paper" part of The Sign very literally and bought the book to read. If I like the book (the translation is a bit choppy but I can overlook that if the story is good) then I'll finish the show, if I don't then into the land of the dropped it goes.

Verdict: On Hold until I've actually experienced it on paper.

🌄🖕 Last Twilight - Dropped (episode 10)

I won't lie, this is the second time (the first time being Only Friends) that I've ended up being grateful my busy schedule got in the way of my drama watching because wow this show really took a tumble at the last hurdle. There was so much Last Twilight could have done, so many societal boundaries it could have crossed and reshaped and re-imagined but instead it went with... well a literal "fix it fic" ending that fixed nothing but instead broke all it had built up beyond repair.

I'm not going to go into detail about how Last Twilight let nearly every single one of its principal characters down, about how Mhok was never allowed screen time to process his own emotional trauma, about how the show briefly touched upon and then completely glossed over the very different social and financial circumstances of the both couples and the effects this would have on their experience of the world, of how there was so much ableist messaging around both the treatment of Dad's character which was always lurking under the surface but which only really came to light alongside the ending..... All I'm going to say is that, up until episode 9, Last Twilight had a choice about what messages it wanted it's audiences to come away with at the end, and it picked the wrong fucking ones.

It could have been a challenge to the ableist and classist mainstream norm so often portrayed in the media, instead it perpetuated harmful and hurtful rhetoric and stereotypes against the very people it claimed to champion.

Maybe one day I'll watch it again, but only because I want to properly break down what went so wrong.

👨‍⚕️⏳ Triage - Dropped (episode 10)

This one hurts me.

This one well and truly hurts me.

Because, the thing is, I loved so much about this show. It does so much right and up until episode 10 I was preparing to rank it among my favourite BLs of all time; the plot was fast moving and carried you from episode to episode in a whirlwind of anticipation, the romance (although minor compared to most other BLs) was highly shippable, the characters had depth and flaws and strengths that made you root for them, and the time loop plot device was doing things that were genuinely new and innovative.

I was hooked.

And then everything I loved just disappeared.

I don't know what possessed the creators of this show to completely change the universe of the drama for the last 2 episodes, maybe they thought the old one was getting stale (it wasn't).

All I can say is I absolutely hated the new turn of events.

Familiar characters with entirely new personalities and character arcs who I was apparently expected to root for (I don't know who they are anymore), time travel rules thrown out of the window because the plot demanded it be so (I'm sorry but the notebook time travels now? And a kiss will bring back memories?), the entire premise of the show just dropped and never even properly answered (why did Tin need to save Tol????? What about his heart murmur????)....

No.

Just no.

I'm out.

Verdict: Dropped for becoming a completely different drama in the last 2 episodes

⭐ The Awards

I fell in love with a lot of people and things this month so let's talk about them

☺️ Smile That Could Launch A Thousand Ships

Yuuichi Kurosawa (and his actor Keita Machida) is, quite frankly, a ridiculously gorgeous man in the most normal of circumstances but his smile takes it to a whole new level.

Truly a sight that could light up a room (and the whole building the room was in), this smile is filled with such genuine happiness and love that it's hard not to smile right back just as brightly, whether you be a hapless audience member beaming at your computer screen or a flustered Adachi trying desperately to hold on to your heart.

What I also love about this smile is that it only comes out when Kurosawa is properly, over the moon happy. He's got other smiles for other occasions and they're all very pretty but this one? This one sits above them all and makes them pale in comparison.

🩷 Biggest Crush

I have a type and that type is Cho Mina (and quite possibly Kang Mi Na, I clearly need to work through her filmography for... science). But seriously, this woman is STUNNING and is made all the more so by her dedication to her daughter and her refusal to let society pressure her into being ashamed of being a young single mum. She's strong, she's kind, she's independent, she's beautiful both inside and out. I don't care if she got the least screen time out of all the sisters, she stole the whole show for me and I am smitten.

📃 Line That Hit Me Like A Freight Train

"I'm used to pretending to be normal"

"pretending to be normal"

I'm going to be forever grateful to Cherry Magic for giving me positive and thoughtful Ace rep in Fujisaki, for showing her happy and confident and unbothered by society's expectations that she should one day couple up and settle down, for giving voice to the Ace experience of "pretending to be normal" in simple line that holds so much meaning and so many layers.

I know it's not canon, but in my head Fujisaki does tell Adachi out loud one day, and she gets her response of "is that so".

🛌 Plot Device That Made Me Sit Up and Go "Yes"

I may have ended up dropping Triage but credit where credit is due, it did do a lot of things right and one of those things was its ideas around time loops/ time travel. The idea that where you fall asleep at the end of the time loop directly affects how far back you travel back in time for the start of the loop?

Genius.

Why haven't I seen this done before??? It's such a clever way to provide the loop-character with the agency they need to actually make changes without breaking the established rules of the time loop and it allows for each iteration of the loop to be significantly different depending on how early or how late the changes to the timeline are made.

It literally solves almost all of my usual issues with time loop narratives.

It was genuinely intriguing watching Tin try to work out where he needed to fall asleep in order to go back as far as he needed and it was such a shame that, as the show neared its end, that aspect of the time loop experience just sort of fell away.

I want more time loop ideas like this and I want them now.

🌄 Scene That Took My Breath Away

Last Twilight may have ended by taking this scene and its significance and flushing it down the toilet but you know what, the author is dead and I killed him. I'm taking this scene back.

Day wanting his last experience with his quickly disappearing sight to be a homage to the book that helped him come to terms with his disability and see the world anew, his description of the sunset he could see in his mind's eye that is far more brilliant and beautiful than reality could ever dream to be, his clear moment of realisation that yes, he could live without his sight and not only could he live without it, he could well and truly thrive, the last thing he sees being Mhok's face as the ultimate declaration of love....

The last twilight in episode 9 could have been a truly special moment and, taken in isolation, it still is. It's just such a shame that such a beautiful depiction of growth and healing and self-love and self-acceptance was ultimately papered over with an ending that didn't fit it at all, one that erased the positive and affirming messages this scene held.

[dragonnarrative-writes]

Your slasher handler story is just… 😩💕 I can’t believe this good food tbh. It’s perfection. I literally am on the edge of my seat. The predator/prey dynamic is perfectly executed, the way you describe his true nature shining through the façade every now and then, and despite the fact she catches some of those moments herself she still tries to be rational, to befriend him to keep herself safe😭 I’m like babyyyyy, you’re a lamb walking into the jaws of a wolf thinking you’ll be going for a kiss??? But this last chapter (and the ones before) I was really thinking he was going soft on her because they had their tender moments and it seems like the stockholm syndrome is really settling, but the ending had me grasping my pearls!

(ps: is it okay to send in an idea/request if you vibe w it based on this story? I just had a very angsty imagine in mind, where somewhere along the way he finally has almost all ties with your life cut. You quit your job, you are basically not allowed to leave and you don’t have any contact with anyone unless it’s supervised which is very rare. But you try to bargain to visit your apartment or a friend one last time, you promise it’s just to say “goodbye” and after that you’re going to do whatever he wants (which he finds adorable, a pet he owns trying to bargain with him. But he humours you nonetheless, because this could get very interesting and he already has some ideas for his reward). For you, it’s partially a last desperate attempt to raise alarms, but also you’re just so homesick for your life as you knew it. Sure, it wasn’t perfect but it was yours. And you were in control of it in freedom. You get to have your moment, but he makes you say your goodbyes and takes you back home with him eventually (a twisted part of me sees him make you /or have you watch him set fire to the building for some reason😭). And on the way back home you just break down, as it finally settles that it’s really game over for you now and that you’ve lost. You’re his now. And the realisation for him that he hasn’t broken you in as well as he thought he had, so now he has to fix that of course.

Idk there’s just something about thinking that bargaining with your captor is a good idea and not realising you’re always always gonna up w the short end of the stick that I just eat up)

okay this has gotten really long!!! I’m out, thank you once again for sharing this amazing series w us and have a good one!!!✌🏻😽

Thank you so much! I'm so glad that you've enjoyed the dynamic.(thank you to EVERYONE who comments, reblogs and replys, I see them all and spend too much time smooching every single one of them) I've really tried to capture that Reader is aware that she's playing at domesticating a Big Predator, but she's way out of her depth.

Please do send me thoughts and requests! I'm not really an angst writer (yet! I wasn't a dark fic writer either, but the turns do table) but I love love love the ideas.

Act-tu-a-ly! You would probably love @charliemwrites's Keeper/Kept series. I think there's a few different parts that touch specifically on that exact dynamic. There's a lot to explore in that particular sandbox, so I don't remember exactly where those specific sections are, but it's all a fantastic read.

You might also like @groguspicklejar's Mafia!AU, it's gotten deliciously angsty as of late! Not so much mourning the old life, but there's plenty of "oh shit I'm a pet and this is real and Not Great."

[hotcat37]

I had a 20 hours shift and after I woke up I saw the notification of the new IKEA chapter ❤️. It made my day so much better ❤️❤️❤️❤️

The hurt-comfort chapter is something I needed❤️❤️❤️❤️

“He knows it's not an excuse but at the time Nace had acted out on instinct. For those few seconds kissing Jan felt right. Like the easiest thing he's ever done.”

“Tries to come up with a scenario that doesn't end in tears and a smack to the face.” Poor baby.

“Why did he kiss Jan? Because it felt good. Because Jan makes him feel safe. Because.....because he loves him. What he initially thought was just a crush has derailed into something else entirely. Crush doesn't even come close to describing his complex feelings for the guitarist.” It’s a bad circumstance but he finally realised what Jan means to him❤️

Love how Nace’s priority is Ollie. To keep him safe and loved. I’m also sad that he didn’t dare to consider the same treatment for himself, didn’t have the self-confidence to allow it for himself.

“How could he have been this blind? Did he just never see how manipulative she is or did he subconsciously know all along but refuse to acknowledge it? Most of all he's disappointed in himself for only seeing it once Ollie got unfairly involved. Now everything is blowing up right in his face and his dog is the one suffering most from it.”

“He just doesn't understand. Legitimately can't comprehend why Maja would treat an animal like this. Christ, how did he not see this coming? Nace thought that being hit by her is the worst thing she could do but what she's done to Ollie tonight is a hundred times worse in comparison.”

Accepting and realising that she is no longer a safe place for him BUT Jan is❤️❤️❤️

Kris is a hero for driving Jan to Nace’s place. Although I think Jan would have spent money on taxi to get Nace’s place as soon as possible.

Jan is being a sweetheart❤️❤️❤️ (can’t wait to see his inner thoughts of Nace’s call and the things happened after)(can Jan fix the controller? Does Nace wants it to get fixed?)

“Nace doesn't even realize that Jan is checking for bruises until he's blatantly asked” "Are you hurt?"” “Nace starts to cry, unable to help himself, giving up on wiping the tears away pretty quickly when they just keep on coming.”

Asking for what he wants/needs is such a huge thing.❤️❤️❤️❤️

“"C-can you wa....wait f-for me-?"” “Nace can't be with him until he's sorted out his own shit. It's only fair to Jan.” “Eventually, Jan promises: ".....of course. I'll wait forever if you want, Nace."”

Why do you have to end the chapter with “And for the second time that night, Nace thinks that just maybe, things will be okay.” Why can’t Nace have some peace? Also Maja still has the keyes to his place? Will Nace have a breakdown in front of Jan just to be surprised how much better and kinder Jan helps him to get through and recover from it?

Only 5 more chapters left 😭😭😭😭

AAAAH ANON THANK U SM FOR THE LONG MESSAGE!! I LOVE getting long comments eee 🥰🥰 Sorry for putting Nace, Ollie and you through it reader 😅 The most important but jarring thing about this chapter to me was really driving the point home that Nace would have likely and unfortunately still stayed with Maja if she hadn't neglected Ollie like that. Because he won't tolerate any abuse towards anyone that isn't him :( He definitely has a lot of reflection and healing to do before starting anything with Jan.

Also I'll probably add at least one more chapter because there'll only be like 4 chapters of Jance actually being together which isn't a lot so I'm planning on having some more happy content at the end to compensate for all the angst

Thanks so much for the message anon and just for you, I'll give some info about the next chapter (whenever it comes out lmao): the whole thing will be one big flashback that adds a lot of context to Nace's character in the fic 👀

[wonolic]

Corina's relationship with the Sakamaki brothers ! ୧⁠ (⁠ ＾⁠ ⁠〰⁠ ⁠＾⁠)⁠୨

A/N: still have to make a post about Corina's personality. As you read, keep in mind that Corina is a Dandere.

What's a Dandere? Dandere characters will normally be quiet and silent, possibly to the point of coming across as emotionless at times. However, they will suddenly become talkative and sweet when alone with the right person if they are comfortable enough to pour their heart out, revealing that they're actually just shy.

In Corina's case, she's a Dandere that when you get to know her better, you see that she's actually ecstatic and funny girl. Now, let's go read the post!

︵ ︵ ︵ ︵ . . . .

𝘴𝘩𝘶 ⤸

Shu and Corina rarely talk since she came to the house, they also barely see each other, it's more like they just enjoy or don't mind each other's presence. Usually, Shu doesn't like to have to spend time with Corina because, in his eyes, she's loud af and hyperactive like a child who just ingested 2 packages of pure white sugar, but he'll eventually use her lap as a pillow while in the limousine in their way to Ryoutei.

Probably the brother who sucks her blood the least + the brother who spends time with her the least. He complains that Corina's blood has a taste that's unpleasant, and he finds it too troublesome to suck her blood, she just can't keep quiet while he does after all.

𝘳𝘦𝘪𝘫𝘪 ⤸

Reiji wants to fix Corina at any chance. Since Corina's arrival at the manor, Reiji has pointed out all her flaws; she looked like she understood and tried to get better, a thing that made Reiji really satisfied, but she was still so stubborn and childish sometimes that he couldn't stand this awful attitude. So, as a form of correction and punishment, Reiji was the first one to bite Corina. And god, he made it hurt so much that the girl couldn't even move her shoulder without feeling it throb for days.

Now that they're living for some weeks together, Reiji and Corina have a "better" relationship. Of course, they sometimes discuss or simply talk in a passive-aggressive way with each other, but Reiji likes the way Corina is submissive to him and will do anything he asks without complaining too much and even if Corina doesn't like tea, she likes to spend time with Reiji and likes to take some extra classes with him.

𝘢𝘺𝘢𝘵𝘰 ⤸

The first thing Ayato thought after seeing Corina was "I'm going to mess with her so bad". They don't mind each other's presence, and tbh, they even get along pretty well. Ayato teases her a lot, he knows she's short-tempered, and that makes her annoyed, but nothing Corina can't forgive (she can't resist those big green eyes of his), also he finds her defined biceps and shoulders cool but too manly for his liking. At school, Corina always goes to Ayato's games and cheers up for him, to the point where she spends the day making a big poster with red glitter that even a person who has myopia can clearly read what's written.

Because both of them are so egocentric, they're almost always arguing and challenging each other with stupid games to see who's the best. Of course, in physical games, Ayato is always the winner (don't ask about mental games bcuz Corina has ADHD and Ayato is just airheaded sometimes), but when it comes to video-games, oh god, Corina is like a pro at any fighting game, Ayato has no chance at all of winning her. 😭

𝘬𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘰 ⤸

They literally hate each other, lol, don't put them alone in the same room because those two are going to kill each other in the first 5 minutes.

I mean, when Corina first arrived at the manor, Kanato thought she smelled good (Corina wears lots of vanilla scented things) and wanted a taste of her blood, but when she kicked his knee, almost ripped Teddy's ear off while struggling and screamed her lungs out, Kanato promised to himself that he would never forgive her, principally because of that Teddy thing. Now, Kanato simply despises Corina, but she mostly fears him.

It's rare, but sometimes, they get along. Like, when Kanato needs someone to accompany him to his tea party, Corina is there because she likes that type of thing and has her very own teddy bear too. Or to try on the dresses he made, Corina loves to wear those lolita styled dresses, and in those moments, Corina genuinely likes staying by Kanato's side.

𝘭𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘰 ⤸

Thinks she's the cutest little thing he ever saw, principally when she's wearing pigtails. Corina most times doesn't feel completely safe around Laito, but nothing she can't handle (any priest at the church made her more uncomfortable than Laito), Corina actually finds him the funniest brother.

Laito was the one who stayed the most time by Corina's side, they got close fast and developed some type of intimacy together. Not that you can call them friends or something like that, it's more like a casual relationship of people who live under the same roof.

Laito even tried to claim her at one point, but she got scarred + she didn't want to lose her virginity like that. Reiji was having a normal day until he found out, after finding Corina hiding in his laboratory, and got angry because Corina's blood was for everyone and Laito shouldn't be so selfish because claiming her would ruin her blood for the others, including him.

𝘴𝘶𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘶 ⤸

Has kind of a crush on this sad emo boy (self insert moment 🤧), but doesn't want him to know and will probably never tell him because she has a big ego just like her redheaded bestie. When Corina started living in the manor, Subaru didn't like her at all.

At first, because she was mostly quiet and quite nervous when interacting with him and his brothers, he didn't care about her. Then, she ended up in the same class as him, suddenly gaining some type of friendship with his classmates + teachers and the hell started there for him.

She was just too agitated for his liking, exaggerated, loud and the smile that never faded from her face annoyed him. He even gave her the nickname of "loud dog", making fun of her for being stubborn like a puppy, joking about having to discipline her or putting a leash on her with his name carved on it.

Like Reiji, after some weeks of living together, they got a little bit closer, to the point where the quiet and nervous girl completely disappeared and what was left was the same always excited and loud girl Subaru saw at class (he secretly likes that side of Corina).

A/N: Thank you for reading, see you in the next post! 💗

[alo-piss-trancy]

Btw even if I don't check in here as often as I used to, I really do appreciate all of you who stick with this blog anyways c': Especially since I barely post anything 'kinky' myself anymore. So this is mostly just a gaming/media rant and personal blog now oops

In some ways I'm definitely better off than I was a few years ago, but I've also been dealing with a lot of chaos in my life and household and it doesn't look like it's gonna get fixed very soon. Mix of financial, physical health of me and family I've been heavily assisting, house things in desperate need of repair...

On top of that I've been starting to realize I might actually have developed some form of Agoraphobia from all that time I was housebound before... and other stuff, but I think that was probably the main contributor. I'm still looking into it but with how a lot of the other things I've tried to cope haven't helped, meds don't seem to touch it much, and it seems to be getting worse, it's looking more and more likely than I'd like to admit. Which sucks bc it's also going to be hard af to keep up with working to treat it with Exposure or smth if I'm buried in all the above stuff/have limited transport/places to even go. It's really freaking hard when I do rarely go out and the anxiety/illness makes it so much worse. There've been times I've had to give up and go back early after like, an hour bc I was vomiting/crippled with pain/on the verge of fainting... and that's been happening more often. Like 1 in every 3 times, and I may only get out 3 times a month at the worst points.

Idk. I'm trying. I'm keeping up with the bare minimum rn and that's all I can really say lol

Also the only problem that's actually relevant to kink blog: my drive is still at 0 or even the negatives bc I can't get my medication sorted out bc my appointments got pushed back AGAIN ☠️ So yeah. That's why there has been no writing or hc posts and will not probably be for a WHILE. On God, it's about as appealing to me as eating dry cardboard 😔 Trying to write or draw anything fun is like pulling teeth and if I won't enjoy the end result then I'm not gonna bother RIP. When I get that sorted out maybe I can finally touch my poor WIP pile again 😭

Uh yeah so. That's why I've been so absent for like... forever. I do miss checking in here but I also get in my own head sometimes about posting when I'm not 'providing' anything this blog was intended for. Which I realise is dumb bc it's MY blog and if I want to rant about video games only for like a year straight then I'm allowed to. But brains are Fun like that 🥲

For what it's worth I'm not in like, a fullblown mental crisis so please don't worry about that! I'm not in any immediate danger or smth! I do have some other hobbies I've been keeping up with and socialising in other spaces. And I've been reading. So I promise I'm not in a complete isolated depression pit 💛 Life could definitely be better and I def have some rough days, but I have been trying to take some baby steps to either fix things or keep myself sane at least lol

Idk I just felt like I should explain why I've been mostly gone for ages off and on. I do lurk here sometimes to peek at things even if I don't have the energy to show myself. But I do really appreciate anyone who sends asks or comments on my ao3 or just reads my ramblings lol 💛 Even when I can't respond immediately I still treasure the gesture and it makes me happy to see some of the same names around in my notifs/dash c': So thank you~

Summary: After your fight with Anne you head back to the oil rig.

Warnings: mentions of bl00d, d34th, want to v0m1t, and bl33ding wounds.

The ferry ride back to the oil rig was… Uncomfortable. Sabine was mad at you she refused to speak or look at you. Anything you said to her was ignored she was highly disappointed. Your first mission was messy. Everything had been going well until you went to fight Anne. You told Sabine you would fight Anne, and show her you were a real threat to her team, but you didn’t land more than three or four hits on the Soul Rider. You promised Sabine you were ready to fight you wanted to join her on a mission. You really did feel ready when you promised her, but your feelings took over you during the fight. How could you fight someone you loved before? Anne used to be your friend your brain couldn’t forget that no matter how hard you tried. You still held some love for the woman and her team feelings did not allow you to fight her, and probably wouldn’t allow you to fight the others either. You heard your horse neigh, and you looked to them seeing them look forward. You were at the oil rig now. The ship was circling around the rig trying to find a dock. Your palms started to sweat at the thought of Sands finding out about today. Would Sabine tell him? You wanted to tell her not to you wanted to tell her this was just a bad day and that it wouldn’t repeat, but she was still ignoring you. You really didn’t want to speak to Sands. The man was a rough leader he saw your every mistake, and each mistake made earned you a long talk. You were tired and sore you really didn’t want to deal with a huge long boring talk. When the ship docked at the rig you gathered your horse’s reins leading them off the ferry ramp and onto the dock. Jay waited for you at the dock wanting to hear how your first mission had gone. As soon as the woman saw Sabine’s sour look she knew it didn’t go well. Sabine and Khaan got off the ship first so Jay went to Sabine asking what had happened and your teammate told her everything. By the time you got to Jay, Sabine was done talking, and walking away with her horse. Jay stood still for a second trying to process what Sabine had told her. Once she was able to, she spoke “what happened? You said you were ready?” The woman watched as you frowned leaning against your horse for support “I was.” You said and your horse stood still allowing you to lean on them “I really was but I don’t know what came over me and-.” The thought of what Anne had said to you popped into your head. You hadn’t forgotten about what she said you just pushed it away too scared to think that what she was saying was true. Did the Soul Riders really run away like Katja had told you? Or did they stay and find your body like Anne said they did? What story was true?... You had to find out… You had to speak to Katja. Jay watched as your frown turned to a scowl “I need to speak to Katja” you stopped leaning against your horse walking closer to Jay “where is she?” The woman didn’t answer your question instead she shook her head saying “I think we need to see Sands first.” You huffed your tone changing from neutral to displeased “I need to speak to Katja” you weren’t going to see Sands you were going to see Katja. Jay’s nose scrunched a bit as her brows furrowed. The woman knew you were going to be stubborn about what you wanted. She didn’t want to stay, and argue with you so she nodded “fine” her tone changed from concerned to annoyed “let’s go find Katja.”

You were in your room pacing back and forth as you waited for Katja. You and Jay found the woman in the stables with Mortifa. She was busy, so she told you to wait for her. You didn’t want to speak in the stables you needed more privacy, so you told Katja to meet you in your room. Jay went to speak to Sands about your mission leaving you to walk to your room alone and anxious. Your anxiety grew as you waited for Katja to come to you, and it got worse as you thought about the long talk you would have with Sands over today. Hopefully the woman remembered that she was supposed to meet you in your room. She was taking a long time you were starting to think that she completely forgot about you. While you waited you thought about how to ask her about the story she told you. How do you ask someone if they lied to you without making it… Bad? How can you ask her if she lied without upsetting her in some way? While you thought about how to say what was on your mind you heard muffled footsteps outside your room. The steps were getting louder, and you knew they had to be from Katja. You waited a couple seconds, and when the steps stopped you looked at your door. The door shook a bit as it was knocked on making your room echo. You quickly walked to the door eager to know the truth when you opened it you gave Katja no time to talk. You quickly dragged her in by the arm surprising the witch as you dragged her into the room. Katja really wanted to ask you what your problem was, but you spoke first “did you lie to me?” You decided to just say it not worrying about being kind. If Katja lied to you then she deserved no kindness from you. If she didn’t lie then you would apologize later, but right now you needed to be rude. You needed to make it clear you wanted the truth you weren’t going to keep playing games. Katja laughed surprised by your question and your awful behavior “excuse you?” She glared at you, and you glared back. “You told me my friends left me behind as soon as the explosion happened” when you said ‘friends’ Katja began to feel uneasy. She and the team were your friends now, were you starting to become disloyal? You spoke again backing away from her your body slowly moving you towards the door without you realizing it. “You said I was left out there alone… But when I was fighting Anne today she said they never left me” your nose scrunched your brows furrowed. Your expression reminded Katja of a snarling animal “she said they found my body.” You were getting closer to the door Katja took notice of it. The witch tensed feeling more and more threatened as you spoke and moved. “And you believed her?” Katja scoffed “she’s lying to you! She lied so you wouldn’t fight her!” That was a huge possibility but your brain was saying ‘keep pushing’ so you did. “I believed her because I knew her longer” your body stopped when you got near the door “she sounded pretty fucking honest to me.” The woman looked at the door, and then to you… What were you planning? “Why did you lie?” You knew the truth now, and Katja couldn’t fight back with more lies anymore. The woman rolled her eyes at you “we’re your real friends and you want to go back to the ones who make you work day and night? Who don’t truly see you or your power?” Katja was trying to make you stay, and calm down, but you refused it “answer me!” You yelled at her “why did you lie?!” You were angry now, you wanted the truth. The witch gave in deciding to tell you the true story, but she still had a plan to try and make you stay “we know who you are.” Her glare intensified “Aideen” she said the name like it was the most disgusting thing ever. You tensed not knowing what to say. How did she know who you were? You didn’t get to ask her thanks to your body freezing in fear and surprise. “Jay came up with the plan.” Katja started walking towards you taking small steps, so she wouldn’t scare you.

“She planned everything” you watched as the woman got closer “she had the Drakonium be put out there, she made sure you would be near the smallest pile, she made an illusion of you to trick your friends, and we stayed out there until you woke up.” You felt like throwing up you betrayed everyone for a lie. Guilt ate away at your insides as Katja spoke “we did all that for you” the witch was acting out her plan now “we care for you so much we did all of this for you.” Her plan was to make it seem like you meant so much to her that you would stay. The woman was right in front of you now she held your shoulders, and through your shirt you could feel the cold of her skin. One wrong move and you could end up with frostbite “aren’t we better than the Soul Riders? We cared for you more than they did aren’t we better?” You seemed to be calming down your angry look going away… But only for a second. The look returned your face burning with anger “you lied to me!” You pushed Katja away quickly walking backwards, so her hands wouldn’t touch any exposed skin. “How are you any better!? You fucking lied to me, and took me away from my friends!” You looked to the door, and Katja went wide eyed “don’t you dare.” She watched as you took a step towards the door “leave this room and I’ll kill you for being a traitor!” You looked to her then back to the door, and you ran out of your room ignoring her words. You ran as fast as you could not bothering to look back to see if Katja was following you. You wanted to look, but you were glad you didn’t as a giant spike of ice appeared in front of you. The spike was aimed right for your torso you managed to dodge it before it could hit any vital organ. Had curiosity gotten the better of you the spike would have pierced you. You didn’t escape unharmed the spike grazed your side. Blood poured from the wound covering your shirt in a crimson red color. Adrenaline hit you making you run faster, and it dulled the pain of your cut putting all focus on survival. Katja was serious she really was going to try and kill you. You had to get off the oil rig this was life or death. You ran down the hall taking a turn running straight for the stables. You weren’t going to leave your horse you’d rather die than leave your horse. More spikes appeared in front of you some of them left a cut on you as you ran around them. The cuts ranged from big to small the spikes were getting harder to dodge. Katja was set on killing you, and you knew she wasn’t going to give up until she did. A strong horrible fear hit you as you realized you might not make it out of the rig alive.

TY FOR READING! :D

[i-willstealyourtoes]

Ok ok I'm back-

So I had an idea, Houston, Hoxton, Dallas, and wolf (if you don't do 4 you can just pick two) but their S/O gets hurt, like not fatally, but like shot in the leg or hits their head on something after getting flashbanged, and how they would react during and after the incident?

Wb wb hiiii glad to see u around ^^

Dallas, Hoxton, Houston + Wolf with hurt s/o

Dallas

- Okay so I imagine it was a normal heist when all of a sudden he hears you make a loud yelp of pain behind him

- My guy almost broke his neck whipping it around that fast

- 'SHIT, (Y/N)!!'

- You had been shot in the calf D:

- He was quick to respond by running over and lending his shoulder for support as he helped you to get out of the fight

- 'Just hang on (Y/n), you'll be fine!'

- Once you both got out of the line of fire, he let you rest against a wall whilst bringing out a first aid and kneeling beside you

- 'It's alright, you're gonna be fine. Tell me what happened?'

- According to you, you had just evaded a snipers headshot but it still hit your leg

- 'I swear to god, those snipers are the bane of my existence!' (haha bane more like bain)

- After he took care of the bleeding, he stood up and held out his hand

- 'Do you think you can get back in the fight? Heist's not over yet, (Y/n).'

- If you try to get back up and fight, he's glad/proud to see it

- 'That's my (Y/n). Now come on, let's go get those damn cops!'

- He definitely stays a little closer to you and keeps an eye out during the battle

- Once it's all over, he definitely boasted about your determination and stuff while keeping an arm around your shoulder

- 'Yeah, did you see (Y/n)? They managed to kill (insert a decent number) of cops WHILE handicapped! My partner's pretty great!'

- 'Well, they're pretty and great, mind you.'

- However, if you couldn't get back up/you were in too much pain, he definitely understands

- 'Are you sure? Alright, it's fine, just stay here, we'll finish this quick and come back for you, promise.'

- With a quick kiss on the forehead he quickly runs out into the fight, still switching his view to you while he can, making sure you don't get into trouble

- After the heist is over, he low-key threatens Twitch to come all the way back to where you were so it's easier to pick you up

- 'See, told you we'd come back. Didn't take too long either right?'

- Even if you didn't participate in the rest of the heist, he's proud anyway (it shows you know when to pick your fights)

- 'It's alright (Y/n), next heist you'll get them. Let's focus on you recovering for now though.'

- TLDR: He's quick to support and understands if you can't get back up + he's proud whether or not you choose to get back up

- OH also he gives you this face 😊 in either situation bc ☺️

Hoxton

- Bro I hate tasers oml

- But yeah, you got caught between 2 tasers

- Not fun 😭😭😭

- When Hoxton heard the sound of tasers charging, he quickly turned to see the two of them shocking you

- 'FUCK, TASERS! (Y/N)!!!'

- Luckily man's is good at shooting so it wasn't long before you were free of the two cops

- As you collapsed from the shock, he caught you (omg I love men)

- 'I know you like me, but that doesn't mean you should literally fall for me too.'

- Anyways, he helped you up and gave you a pat on the back :)

- 'Alright, let's keep going then? Still gotta fix the damn drill.'

- (It's his way of trying to encourage you to keep going ok)

- If you keep moving he's glad, it means the injury wasn't serious :)

- 'Alright good, get going then!' (he's just being his usual teasing self fr)

- After the heist is done, he'd probably check in on you again

- 'You're still alright then? Good, I'd hate to have to bring you into the hospital.... bloody hate hospitals...'

- But if you collapse in his arms again when he tried helping you up? Panik 😟

- 'H-hey, what'd I just say about swooning? You alright (Y/n)? Can you walk still?'

- He'd definitely sound more worried if you can't walk well

- 'Alright, I'll help you to somewhere safe, okay? Just hang in there.'

- He'd let you rest in a alleyway or room and check for any severe injuries

- 'You just stay put alright? We'll just do this without you. Just.... stay safe, that's all you need to worry about.'

- After it's all over, he'd be quick to rush back to you and help you to the van

- 'How do you feel now? Better?'

- Yeah no mans might be a lil worried

- Would low-key give you better treatment than he would to any of the others

- 'Alright everyone move, (Y/n) needs a seat! Houston, let them sit down!'

- As he's helping you out, he'd give you some words of reassurance

- 'It's alright (Y/n). We still pulled it off right? Then don't worry about it. You're fine.'

- He luv u fr fr

Houston

- Bo do you have a thing for the steele brothers (I get it tbh they're so babygirl)

- Anyway, I imagine he was just fixing the drill when all of sudden-

- 'OW-'

- He turned away from the drill to see you writhing in pain, as a cloaker towered on top of your semi-conscious form

- '(Y/N)!!!'

- He picked up his gun and shot down the cloaker quick, then rushed over to you and helped you up

- 'Be more careful next time alright? I can't always be there to help you out.'

- If you got up and continued fighting, he'd probably leave you be, though next time he hears a cloaker he'd probably drop everything to make sure you don't get hurt again

- 'What would you do without me huh?'

- Once the heist was done, he'd check in on you again

- 'You sure you're alright? That bruise.... well it looks shit-'

- He's just being weird in the way he cares for you alright

- OH also he might boast a bit too if the conversation turns to that

- 'Yeah, you thought you did good today? Well, (Y/n) got knocked out and STILL managed to get more done than you. Guess my partner's just better than you.'

- If you still were out of it when he tried picking you up, he'd have a more serious tone

- 'Shit, are you.... are you okay? Here, let me move you here...'

- He has no issue picking you up bridal style bc it makes him feel like a hero

- 'Just stay still alright? Take 5 and see if you feel better. If not... uh... just stay down. You'll be fine.'

- Is low-key under performing bc he's worried for you

- He keeps in a 10 meter radius of you and keeps turning to look at you

- When the heist is done and they're escaping, he rushes to you and helps you to the van

- 'Hey, you're okay right?' + 'You'll be fine, let me look at the wound more.'

- My guy is overall a lil worried

Wolf

- (Uh I'm not too good at Wolf but I'll try)

- So everything was going fine until-

- SURPRISE, DOZER ATTACK

- My guy sent you FLYING into a wall

- When Wolf heard this, he was a mix of complete panic and also anger (which is the usual but now it was heightened)

- 'SHIT, (Y/N)!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

- He quickly decided to rush the Dozer first and went mental on him fr

- My guy shouldn't have punted you fr now he's..... messed up (and dead)

- After his manic panic (hehe) calmed down, he rushed to you

- 'Sh-shit, (Y/n), you look pretty bad... Are you sure you can get up?'

- If you got up he feels a little less panicky bc at least you can get up

- 'Alright, let's go then...!'

- Protects you like a guard dog (guard wolf???) and keeps an eye on you fr

- He was always protective but now he's staying by your side

- 'I'm not gonna leave you (Y/n)!'

- Even when everything was over, he still looked worried

- 'You sure you're okay? Here, let me check...'

- If you're okay he's okay :)

- OH if you thank him for looking out for you, he's like 🤭

- 'Oh! No problem...!! :D'

- If you couldn't get back up tho???

- Ohno

- 'Shit....okay, just stay here, I'll protect you...!'

- Remember how I said he'd stay in a 10 meter radius- yeah now it's like... 5

- He watches you like a hawk and won't leave even if someone asks him to

- 'Hey Wolf! Come ove-'

- 'No.'

- When the heist finishes, he finally moves away from the spot with you in his arms

- 'Don't worry, (Y/n), you'll be fine!'

- After he checks in on you/gets someone to help you out he's still a little worried fr, holding your hand and stuff

- 'Are you okay now? I swear I'm gonna kill all of those cops and rip their spines out of their body...'

- Those cops better not hit you again otherwise... uh....

[bread-bird-writes]

oh my god I just realized you’re THAT bread_bird. it’s an honor!! anyway for the ask game: 2, 3, 4, 11, 15 (Seeing Ghosts), 27, 30, 32, 44?

AAAA HI I CAN’T FOLLOW PEOPLE IN A SIDE BLOG 😭😭😭 FREAKIN STOKED ABT THIS THO YOU’RE SO COOL

I have never done one of these so here goes:

2. Usually, one day is a writing day and one day is a reading day. Writing’s all-consuming for me, so I probably end up writing more than I read, but I’ve cleared entire tags before by pure accident.

3. Gosh, any fic that I really like or emotionally effects me really pushes me into that mood. Things will spur me into action and remind me that, hey! Maybe I should be writing! Fic in generally really gets me, y’know?

4. FUCK- HEY WAIT- I have a favorite fic/few fics picked out for every single fandom I’ve ever written for, and then some. It’s INSANELY difficult to pick for some fandoms, mostly Sonic and Danganronpa, so here’s a couple that are my undisputed favorites from the fandoms they’re from! ‘Untouchable’ by pollutedstar, ‘Amaranthus’ by Archadian_Skies, and ‘All’s Fair in Love and War’ by AEpixie7.

11. Very rarely do I put actual thought into them. I’ll plunk a line from the middle of the story into the title box and call it a day, unless I previously had some sort of wild, insane moment of clarity and had a good idea for a title.

15. AW THAT’S SO NICE- my personal favorite is actually my least read fic, The Corn and His Deer. It’s based off of an eight-minute clip from The October Monologues done by the Faceless Old Woman in Welcome to Night Vale, and I wrote the whole thing on one plane ride. I had to type in the character tag manually. I adore it, that one was all for me.

27. I like to try! I’ll tag stuff, of course, and in my longer works, I really do need to get better about marking which chapters are upsetting or sexual. I mark the sexual ones well, but sometimes I forget that something I was completely neutral about when I wrote it could upset someone. Certain stuff ALWAYS gets tagged, though, as long as I remember I put it in there. People are always welcome to ask me to tag something or to point out that I forgot a wanting, and I’ll definitely fix it!

30. I’d like to let you know that I started working on this at way too early of an hour where I am, and for this bullet, I just put down ‘No! Ratio!’ I have a couple fics I could do this for, but this is the one I know will be finished soon-ish. So. Anyway. Here’s the bit!

Calmly, carefully, Stone got back into the car, drove to the nearby lake, and hurled his phone into it as hard as he possibly could.

He stopped. Waited. Realized that it was both waterproof and essential, unique tech, tech that was now sitting at the bottom of Green Hills’ most possible lake. It could wash up onshore at any time.

Thirty minutes later, he dragged himself out of the lake, phone in hand, and climbed back into the car. By two in the morning, Stone finally collapsed into bed, still soaked and reeking of lake water. (Some stuff cut for plot reasons don’t worry about it)

Two hours after that, his alarm went off. He really needed to make better choices on his sleeping habits, he decided, or at least the habits that included jumping into a lake and having to rush a shower before he resumed his old life for the first time in 250 days.

32. I promise you that I tried; it led to me staring blankly at my AO3 page for twenty minutes. So! In exchange, I can tell you my three favorite (posted) scenes I’ve written even though that changes with the wind, which would be the hypothermia scene from Total Apathy, the epilogue from Proximal Development, and the scene of Mondo and Taka watching trial 3 in Everybody Wants to Rule the World.

44. Okay, so I’m American, right? That’s probably pretty obvious, I’ve written a marching band AU, for god’s sake, but why is Google docs so insistent on keeping me in my lane? Sometimes, British English has better spellings. When I write a word like ‘traveling’ and spell it with the British spelling, two L’s, who cares? Why is that any of their business? Grey is clearly the superior spelling between grey and gray! Those convey two different things! I’ll spell ‘color’ like ‘colourgh’ for all I care! Language is fake and we made it up for notes! Also, Times New Roman sure is a font, so is Arial, but I think everybody deserves to have a fun little font to write in, even if it’s effectively the same as those, specifically to have a favorite font. It adds character.

[ahundredtimesover]

Omg mimi the way that i was just getting up from the floor and you decided to kick me again with that tiny escene of angst </3 I loved it tho because they fixed it so maturely none of them walked away from it and they both tried to make things right this time, it was so nice to see them being honest with each other.

This oc is so much like me in a lot of ways and it's so encouraging to see that she's being able to enjoy things and love and be loved i love this family so much!!!

These two are SO meant to be istg, like oc always trying to push him away to protect herself and her daughter and also him and then jk is like fuck that i want YOU and always make her FEEL things, that it might sound so basic and easy but for people like oc it's actually really hard to not overthink everything in order to not get hurt. So her being this open to jungkook these last chapter its such a huge advance that it's probably not that big deal for people that it's not like her.

BTW YEAH YOU'RE REALLY SERIOUS ABOUT THE SLOW BURN HUH DO YOU ENJOY MAKING ME SUFFERRRRRR????????? not but anyway i'm a happy girl with that last hug and the kisses on the cheek but now i kinda want more im sorry i'm insatiable now

I adore you, pls!!! 🥺🥺 Just needed that little scene to show that they’re still human and they’re figuring this out, but that they’re in this and that they’ve changed, precisely bc they want it to work.

And agree - planners and over thinkers need a lot worked out in their heads; it’s not always easy, but sometimes all it takes is some who understands and who accepts us for us to be able to give it our all. I’m glad you somehow see yourself in her 🥰

They’re getting there, I promise 😭😭 these last 2 chapters will be worth it! As always, I appreciate you so much. Will always be grateful for your ask about single mom OC (and I’ll always mention it!)
