#once i started. just couldn’t stop

[propertyofkylar]

whitney finds out their slut knows nothing about sanrio (coughmecough) and tries to educate them on all the lore, but without making it obvious that they fucking love sanrio

-slp

my left knee hasn’t stopped hurting for the past 3 days, hoping some fluff/silly fics will distract me from the pain ;-;

ohhh this is a cute idea bestie ur prompts always slay. hope it makes u feel better!

m!whitney x gn!pc, no warnings just fluff :3

“Oh! How cute is this one!” You picked up a Hello Kitty plush on the shelf as you browsed the toy shop.

You were spending time with your boyfriend, who had begrudgingly agreed to visit the store with you, but not without complaining most of the way. Even now, he stood a few steps behind you, and every time you glanced back at him, he was either staring at the ceiling or his feet.

The smile on your face grew as you picked the plush next to the first one you spotted. “And this one! I didn’t know Hello Kitty could also be a bunny.”

“That’s My Melody.”

“Hm?” You turned around at the sound of Whitney speaking. He rolled his eyes and took a step closer to you.

“Don’t be so dumb, slut. Hello Kitty isn’t a bunny. This is My Melody. It’s just a different character made by Sanrio.”

“Oh…” you blinked slowly, a little put off by the insult. “I didn’t know.”

Whitney sighed. “Yeah, that’s what I would expect from a dumb orphan slut like you.” He stepped closer still and began pointing at different plushes on the shelf. “Hello Kitty is the most popular, but there’s a lot of different characters Sanrio has. See? The one with the black is Kuromi, that one goes along with My Melody. The frog is Keroppi. And this is Cinnamoroll,” he handed you an adorable soft, white toy. “You probably think this is a bunny too, but Cinnamoroll is actually a dog. So is that yellow one. That’s Pompompurin.”

You nodded, trying to keep up. “Okay. Wow. I didn’t know there were so many.”

Whitney picked up a green plush - he said that was Keroppi, right? - and turned it over in his hands. “Yeah. There’s a lot more, too. But I wouldn’t expect a shit store like this to carry those. They only sell the most popular characters here. The good shit you gotta import from Japan.”

“Okay…” you said again.

“Like I said,” Whitney repeated, placing the toy back down and fixing you with a stare. “I wouldn’t expect a stupid slut like you to know anything about it.”

You frowned, though, as something dawned on you. “Wait. How do you know all of this?”

Whitney didn’t say anything at first, but his stare grew icier. You subconsciously took a step back. “I mean…” you tried to say, but he lifted up a hand and with a quick swipe, he knocked over the entire display of toys. They came tumbling down with a crash. And when you opened your mouth to say something, Whitney used that same hand to push your shoulder, sending you flat on your ass.

He shook his head with a tsk, looking at the mess. “What a clumsy slut. Look what you did! How embarrassing. You better get up, too,” he looked over the top of your head. “Looks like the manager is coming, and he doesn’t look happy. See ya around, bitch.”

And with a quick mock-salute, he spun on his heel and sped out of the store, leaving you alone surrounded by plush toys on the floor.

bryce charles as ella ashmore is THE best casting decision they could’ve made hands down. every one of her songs is so difficult vocally and she makes them sound beautiful and look easy. she has spot on comedic timing and sells all her one liners, then in multiple scenes of the same show she’s fully sobbing her eyes out and screaming in pain. she brings depth to her heavy scenes and light into her upbeat ones. her dramatic acting is FLAWLESS, she helps the audience understand the gravity of everything ella’s enduring even in a show with a lot of melodramatic and fantastical elements. ella goes through the widest range of emotional experiences by far and bryce nails the portrayal of each and every one - fear, rage, guilt, grief, elation, love, disgust, vengeance, hope. she has a clear stage presence and is able to hold her own when she’s the only one onstage. her dance numbers are beautiful and she nails all her (one million pieces of) choreography. and once again i have to comment on her vocals like you have to be SO GOOD to sing those songs as well as she did even once let alone for the full run of the show. if i sounded like her i would never shut up. bryce charles is the true definition of a triple threat and i knew i would be impressed by her performance as ella ashmore but wow. just wow. blown away doesnt even begin to cover it

[theecholegend]

A gift for the lovely @talifu ❤️ sorry the request took so long😓 Life has been a little hectic as of late. Thanks for waiting! I hope you like it!

Here’s an uncoloured version just because

[hatchetation]

the way teenage bounty hunters DESERVED a second season. like what a tightly written, quippy, funny little show with so much heart. there’s so much good going on in it but things I particularly love:

Twin themes!! There’s so much good foreshadowing surrounding the big reveal (iykyk) and there’s also so much DOUBLING. Double lives especially is a big theme. Like, Debbie hiding Dana; sterling and Blair hiding their bounty hunting; the (functional) froyo shop being bowser’s bounty hunting lair; Terrance the lone wolf bounty hunter and bowser with his little “teen white savior” teammates; Yolanda’s sister who is a perfect foil for her; miles hiding Blair from his family; sterling hiding april from Blair…and then april hiding sterling period.

And I guess the doubling is kind of showing like, here are all the possibilities and here’s what happens when we let love in and here’s what happens when we shut it out

so much good stuff about being from the American south. As someone who grew up in the south and who grew up visiting close family in Atlanta…it is cool as fuck the way the south is portrayed in all of its complexity. The show does not shy away from issues of race, religion, SES, etc SPECFICALLY in Atlanta and manages to do it in a way that doesn’t come across as heavy handed. This show could ONLY be set in the south—it would be a fundamentally different show in any other setting

Also, like I said with the doubling points above, this show is full of secrets and secret keeping!!! But yet a fundamental point of the show is that being silenced is one of the worst things that can happen to a human being. There’s a scene where Blair is telling sterling that her dad yelled at her and that the worst part of all is that he told her to Be Quiet! And like in some ways that scene highlights what a loving household Blair has grown up in that the one of the worst things her Dad has ever said to her is be quiet (not even shut up)…but it really made me be like wow being told to stop questioning and be quiet IS something terrible. It’s a denial and a violation of our right to use our voices

and like it’s not a coincidence that in the final ep Dana gags sterling. Because the way sterling is talking to her is powerful and you can tell it is making her hesitate and question her whole life

so yeah anyway watch teenage bounty hunters! Or if you haven’t in a while, it’s definitely worth a rewatch

[figofswords]

somebody rec me some good books. and they do actually have to be good. don’t rec me something just because it’s gay or it’s popular, it has to also still be good. like both the story and the writing have to be good none of this good concept bad writing or good writing horrible story. fantasy or soft scifi preferred, especially if it’s nontraditional fantasy. I am bored and sick of the internet and I want to get back into reading more but I’m kinda meh about most of what’s on my shelf

*edit: when I say ��soft scifi” I don’t mean cozy I mean not hard scifi, as in stories that are more fantastical than grounded in hard science. for example the Martian is considered hard scifi, so not that. Star Wars would be closer to a soft scifi bc it’s all bullshit on the science end and it’s more about the vibes

[mauvemischief]

Aufhsjhd what if Neil’s hair was so fried from all the dye that it lost it’s curl….and then as soon as the natural auburn/rust color was back, suddenly Neil had all these curls and Andrew just couldn’t stand it becuase Neil Josten was stupid enough to have the audacity to have cute curls??????? (He demands that Neil has Dan teach him how to take care of them)

[sagesolsticewrites]

I promise at some point I’ll get back to writing pure fluff, y’all, but uh…. today is unfortunately not that day fjskfj

Scheduled fics for this week (so far):

- Anthony Boyle smut (written by my bestie @winniemaywebber!!! She’s amazing and I can’t wait for y’all to read it, I melted) to be posted Monday, March 4th at 10am Central Time

- Rosie smut to be posted Tuesday, March 5th at 10am Central Time 👀😏

[peachdues]

I have a confession peach, as a virgin over the age of 27, I'm looking forward to compass a lot, I feel seen, even if it is fiction, its a scenario and idea I will still gobble up bc how could I not, its SANEMI

AHHHH THIS MEANS SO MUCH BESTIE!!! 😭🤍😭🤍😭🤍 and no shame in that!! Tbh, I love writing virginity loss fics bc my own story was ASS.

I will say, the virginity scene is from his POV and Sanemi is lowkey having an internal CRISIS the entire time he’s getting balls deep inside reader (and after), but he’s talking her through it the entire time. Honestly I’ve been revisiting the smut scene for…reasons over the past few days because I’m so insanely attracted to this version of Sanemi (Sam had a medication change so his body is adjusting leave me aloneeeee)

Plus, if y’all end up wanting more, I’ve got it! But EEEE THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU SWEET FLOWER!! SMOOCHES AND LOVE TO YOU!!

[hplonesomeart]

More animation frame screenshots whoop whoop! I swear it’s almost comedic how he’s managed to hijack my YouTube channel and gain me a baffling amount of new subscribers from OUT OF NOWHERE WHA- someone needs to stop him before this happens again I’m scared /j. It’s been fun watching the numbers increase in real time if not a tad overwhelming, but thankfully it mostly makes me feel appreciative more than anything else. Hopefully it’s made people laugh or helped inspired others <3

I would have talked myself out of sharing it otherwise…so glad I made the right decision with posting there. Took a leap of faith and now I feel validated for doing so. I just hope that I’m doing the characters justice even if adding my own unique spin on it. Plus gotta take a step back and remind myself that viewership isn’t what makes the world go round. Wouldn’t want the numbers getting to my head this early on and intervening with my creative visions jksjskp! I get easily influenced sometimes so finding a healthy balance for it is key :))

In meantime enjoy the facial doodles I love drawing expressions hehe

[danielnelsen]

peach (my cat) is having a full-day vet appointment to scan and possibly remove some teeth (the perks of only being allowed wet food)

completely unrelated, but anything regarding peach’s health or her being somewhere else or anything even mildly off with her routine or behaviour is probably by biggest anxiety and panic trigger

[murdleandmarot]

Hi hi! Omg I just saw the post where you mentioned vicky teaching bluebelle the jellicle ball choreo and I am not normal abt it. Bellebelle got pranked 😔

TRULY‼️‼️‼️ YOU GET IT‼️‼️‼️

no but I had the idea appear in my head and it’s so sodding funny n cute I’m glad it infected you too :D

Because I can just imagine all the pre-jellicle dance nonsense happening (with all the misto and bomba and Alonzo ballet) and Bluebelle’s just like okay okay okay. This is chill. This is dignified. I am calm.

And then the amp music builds and she’s just like “WHAT THE FUCK” and scurries away, (like to the back where Deuteronomy is lolll)

And THEN when it finally starts and the music is playing and all the tension is released and it’s just FUN now, Bluebelle squints and is like. Hey wait a minute 🤨. I know what’s going on.

*flashback to like three months ago*

Bluebelle: Wow Victoria this new choreography you’ve been teaching me is so cool :) who’d you learn it from?

Victoria, who learned the choreo exactly one(1) hour ago: haha. Just. Somewhere.

[padfootastic]

Ahaha thank you for the nice comments in tags <3 i love Remus but he seems bit like a spineless people pleaser and after dating somebody who would rather lie about their feelings than have people be mildly upset with them..... I chose violence 🗡

no but ur so right because!!! i’ve been sleeping on this for a while but let’s talk about remus’ personality traits and how they have the potential to make him a bad/absent partner, at best, and an abusive one, at worst. everyone wants to turn him into this image of perfection just bc he’s such an ‘uwu victim’ figure in fanon but that’s SO far from the truth omg

(i am…just gonna put this remus character analysis under a cut bc it got unnecessarily long and i wouldn’t want u to read it if u didn’t want to lol)

so, for one, he’s manipulative. he has no combinations in twisting the truth or dodging it entirely for his own benefit. like, the man could stand in front of his dead best friend’s orphaned son & not even allude to the fact that he knew his dad. he had no problem bringing james & lily up in the most twisted ways possible to guilt/emotionally influence harry. so remus in a relationship would have the capacity to either knowingly or unknowingly manipulate his partner. the definition of gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss except more sinister.

next, his spinelessness. either as a defensive measure to deal w anti-werewolf hostility or as an innate personality trait, remus has the habit of just—not standing up for things. he looks away when his friends act like assholes, even when he’s in a position of authority (which yes, u can argue that he’s afraid of losing them but atp they’ve literally risked life & magic & azkaban for him so either way, he comes off badly—either he doesn’t mind himself, or he doesn’t fully trust their friendship, or it’s just easier to look away). in a relationship, this can manifest as bottling everything inside u until it makes u bitter or u violently unload on the other person in an entirely disproportionate manner. the dynamic would also be a bit skewed. the people pleasing u mentioned is also such a big thing that people usually overlook. when ur constantly trying to make the other person happy and don’t want to rock the boat, that is a cocktail for miscommunication and breakdown of relationships. ur also constantly putting the emotional burden of constructively dealing w issues on ur partner instead of doing it urself.

connected to his cowardice is his habit of running away when things get tough. remus is conflict avoidant; he does not like to put himself in a position where he has to take a decisive stance, especially if it’s against what others around him believe in. he runs away when things get tough, and tbh, for me, this comes from a constant spiral of self hatred & self victimisation, both of which stem from his experience as a werewolf. in every difficult situation, he centres himself & his discomfort and instead of dealing with it and moving forward for a constructive solution, he decides that stepping back from it altogether is better. which, yeah, works well for him bc he can temporarily put a pin in it but it’s kinda terrible for everyone’s who’s left behind. so i also think that remus is a profoundly selfish character who doesn’t look beyond the end of his own nose. u can imagine how those traits might manifest themselves in a relationship.

and his people pleasing!! so this might be verging on fanon but his gratitude and/or devotion to dumbledore sets an…interesting tone. it’s also another example of how he cannot conceive himself in any other term except as a victimised werewolf. the marauders did a lot for him, arguably even more than dumbledore’s token representation formula, but he never felt indebted to them the way he did for D. dumbledore also kind of makes him feel needed? validates his feelings? and that just speaks to a very twisted sense of self for me. which, again, won’t bode well for his other interpersonal relations.

also, on a very hc note, i also feel like remus just…does not have any significant capacity to love. he takes and takes and takes but doesn’t give much in return. this doesn’t even have to be an actively malicious decision, tbh, just a very self-centred one. he doesn’t realise how much he’s taking bc he’s only thinking about his own circumstances.

all of these are also just why i can’t see r/s working out in any healthy manner. remus is exactly antithetical to everything sirius is/believes in, and not even in the fun ‘opposites attract’ way. but that’s another rant no one asked for lmao

[mountsmase]

Ok imagine casually dating Mase for a few months and you visit him in Manchester for the first time. You’ve been exclusive for a while but really want him to take the next step. He plans a whole weekend with you since he has more free time due to his injury, and is super sweet showing you around his new city 🥹 the last night he surprises you with a private rooftop dinner and officially asks you to be his girlfriend

yes yes yes this is so cute, maybe you have some mutual friends so knew each other for a while but only started to get to know him just before the transfer. You went on a few dates before he moved up north and definitely both really liked each other so agreed to keep seeing each other, but since you still live in the london area it’s been hard to see him. Maybe you’ve got a long weekend off work and since he’s injured and has got a lot more free time he invites you up for the weekend, offering to pay for a plane or train ticket for you from london but you drive up instead, not minding the long drive and not wanting to to put him out by having to collect you from the airport/train station.

The day you arrive would be so chill, not really feeling like going out after driving all morning and he’s more than happy to just spend some time at home with you, ordering a takeaway a watching a movie which inevitably leads to loads of cuddles and sweet touches.

The rest of the days are full of the two of you catching up and enjoying your time together, whether it be at his house or out and about whilst he shows you around Manchester and you just have the best time together, feeling so content and comfortable in each others company that he just can’t help asking you to be his on the final night.

Like you mentioned, maybe you’re at a nice rooftop restaurant, a little more dressed up and enjoying a nice dinner together when he asks the question, and you’re a little bit unsure at first. Obviously you like him, a lot. He makes you feel so special and being with him already feels so different (in the best way possible) compared to other guys you’ve been with in the past, you’re falling for him and you’re falling fast. But the distance between London and Manchester scares you a little, you’re worried that it won’t work out between the two of you and you don’t want to get your heartbroken. But, you decide to say yes, knowing that what you have with him is too special to throw away and give up on without even trying. Plus, he’s going to be in the London area frequently anyway, visiting all of his family and friends (and now you) that still live there, and at the end of the day, the drive isn’t too bad, and it’s worth it knowing he’s waiting for you at your destination.

Overall it would just be the sweetest evening ever, and leaving to head home the next day is the last thing you want to do, but it’s made a little easier knowing you’ve already made plans to see him the next week, and you’re already counting down the minuets until you see him again.

[blkbonnet]

Thinking about this art by @mattewkanada and imagining them sat there on deck just casually comparing rings. Stede makes a comment about how lovely the ruby is and how it’s never been a colour he’s really worn. He’s not sure if it’s for him. Ed doesn’t agree and takes it off before confidently putting it on Stede’s finger. Whoever told him what colours he could and could not wear deserves to be thrown overboard with cannonballs tied around their ankles. "You look good in everything, mate.” He smiles as he points down at Stede’s hand as if that proves his point. Stede pulls his gaze away from Ed’s face and looks down at his hand and finds himself marvelling at the jewel. It really does look lovely, although he doubts that has anything to do with him and everything to do with the fact it belongs to Ed.

He immediately offers to give Ed one of his own rings. “The turquoise one, perhaps?” He says it’s always been his favourite. The colour, he explains, is how he kept the ocean close to him when it felt so far away. An impossible dream that got him through the monotony. "My true heart, if you will.” Ed is almost glad Stede is still staring down at the ring because he’s sure his face would give away just how much his own heart is beating for this man. His own impossible dream made true. Despite the meaning behind the ring, Stede doesn’t hesitate as he takes it off and reaches for Ed’s hand. Stede has to try several of Ed’s fingers before finding one it fits. It’s something they both have a good giggle about, completely oblivious to the fact Lucius is watching from afar clutching at his chest. Black Pete hears the steady stream of ohmygodohmygodohmygod and also looks over. By the time the co-captains are sat there, hands out in front of them and fingers spread as they look lovingly between each other and their new rings, half the crew have stopped what they’re doing and are watching. The rest of the crew hear about it within minutes. But Ed and Stede are still only paying attention to each other. They carry on sitting there, talking about everything and nothing, until they eventually move on with their day. Thinking very little about the swapped rings now sitting proudly on their fingers.

Lucius is the first to express how happy he is for them. Stede is rather baffled at the seemingly random outburst but thanks him anyway. Black Pete joyfully slaps Ed on the back and finds himself immediately pinned to the mast. Ed drops him as soon as he realises he’s a friend not a foe but he’s too busy fighting the adrenaline to hear any of the congratulations. Although by the time dinner comes around it’s quite obvious to them both that something weird is going on. Roach bringing out another forty orange glaze cake only confirms it. But everyone is just so happy that they decide to simply join in with the celebrations and have a wonderful night too.

It’s not until the following morning that it hits Stede. He’s woken up slowly, the early sun hitting the new ring on his finger where it’s still resting on Ed’s chest. He looks at it and thinks of Ed. Almost as if sensing it, Ed sleepily reaches for his hand and links their fingers together and falls back to sleep. Stede smiles at their joined hands and seeing the rings next to each other only heightens that feeling he’s still getting used to. Yet it’s right in front of him now. His heart in Ed’s hands, quite literally. It feels so right. Better than any dream. He thinks this is how it should have felt when-

“ED! ED! Wake up! They think we’re engaged!”

Ed, who does not wake up, only snuggles back into his pillow and lazily replies. “Well we usually are at this time of the day but I think that cake took it out of me,” he rubs his exposed belly with his other hand, “I’m good to sleep for another few hours”, and rolls over much like a cat would in a sun spot.

Stede gets distracted by the first bit because well, he’s not wrong, and then again by the belly. Ed not being a fan of sleepwear is something he still can’t decide is a bad thing or a very, very good thing... Then he remembers why he woke him in the first place. So he averts his eyes back to Ed’s face and carries on with his revelation. That wakes Ed up. He looks up at Stede with more vulnerability in his eyes than either of them are ready for.

“And is that… a bad thing?”

Whatever he had been expecting, it wasn’t that. It catches Stede completely off guard. Marriage is something that has only filled him with dread his entire life. But he lets himself imagine it now with Ed and…

“No. No, it’s not.” The only thing that scares Stede is how easy it was to get to that answer. But then he realises it was easy because it was honest. This life with Ed is better than any dream. He not only can imagine being tied to him for the rest of his life, he wants it. This, him, them. Forever. They’re both smiling at each other (like the lovesick idiots they are) as they both wordlessly come to the same conclusion.

They don’t emerge from their quarters until well into the afternoon but when they do, they do it hand in hand and freshly engaged.

my new miku is so cute !!! I’m losing my mind over her
