“Girl! I see why you never left this job! The tips alone are enough to cover rent this month,” I said looking at the wad I already had in my mini apron. 

Lexi nodded, “See, what did I say? You won’t have to go back to the hospital for a while.” I contemplated the idea, sure the break from the physically, mentally, and emotionally draining job is nice. But, helping people, caring for them, that’s my passion. I’ll go back when I’m ready. As I wait for Lexi to make the next round of drinks for the police commissioner’s table, I turn and take in my surroundings.

The club is so unique. With a sunken lounge area and the circular light fixtures it almost has a 60s vibe. But with the seductive lighting and R&B playing it feels like a jazz club. Lexi slides the finished tray of drinks my way and I head towards the commissioner’s table. 

“Our favorite girl is back!” one of them shouted. They were all very close to being drunk, the drinks in my hand should do the job. 

“That’s me!” I said with my million dollar smile. I could already tell what kind of men I was dealing with, pretty boys who never heard the word ‘no’. I place all their drinks down and ask them if there’s anything else I can get them. 

“Aww c’mon leaving so soon? Stay and chat with us for a little while,” one of the men said. I huffed out a fake laugh, “I wish, but I’ve got to finish up my training”. They all boo’d in protest, but I just shrugged my shoulders and backed away. Breathing a sigh of relief I make my way back towards Lexi.

“Ouu girl, they like you,” she said laughing at me, 

I rolled my eyes, “I don’t wanna hear shit when the car is gassed up and the fridge is full. If they keep tipping me like this they can like me all they want,” i said cleaning off the counter. The lights started to dim as someone walked on stage. Out of my periferie I see Terry’s office door open. 

“Oop there go your man,” Lexi whispers in my direction. I huff out an annoyed breath, “Stop calling him that! What if someone hears you!” I whisper-shout, throwing my rag at her. Okay, so I might've developed a teeny-tiny crush on Terry. I don’t know how anyone can look at that man and not get swept up in his beauty. I keep it professional obviously, and it’s not even like he notices. Terry’s barely said two words to me since I started here. I sneak a peek at Terry over my shoulder and I feel my canine sink into my lower lip as I take in his attire.  

Dressed in a simple black long sleeve and matching black cargos and timberland boots. With the gold mini cuban link chain and glasses to top the look off, he’s any woman’s wet dream.

“Damn, Daphne could you be any more obvious?” Lexi asked, laughing at me. 

“Oh, shut up! Look at him, he’s too fine for his own good” I whisper, turning back toward my sister. I feel like a high school girl with a crush. I need to get a grip, fast. I grabbed the ice bucket, heading to the back to fill it up. I need to put some distance between myself and the green-eyed giant. I’ve only been working here about a week and I feel like I’m finally getting a hang of things. I bring the ice out and make my way over to my side of the bar. 

Eli, the police commissioner’s son, has become one of my regulars. After his dad leaves Eli usually stays to hit on whoever is within earshot. Tonight it looks like that’s me, “There she is!” he shouted, eyes low in his liquor induced haze. 

“Someone needs to get cut off I see,” I say, chuckling at Eli’s dopey grin. He groans, “Aww c’mon baaaby. Don’t b-be like that.” Eli reaches for my hand to grab my attention. Before he could open his mouth, the deep, sexy voice of my boss cuts him off.

“Eli quit harassing my staff before I cut you off,” Terry says, sliding into the seat next to Eli. 

“Don’t worry ‘bout it T-man! It’s allllll good,” Eli said, his words starting to blend together.

“Annnd, you’re cut off. Eli give me your phone so I can get you an Uber,”I say, making grabby hands at Eli. He smirks peering over at Terry who looks like he’d rather be anywhere but here. “See, told you she wanted me,” he said, nudging his elbow into Terry’s ribs. I roll my eyes not wanting to satisfy him with a response. Eli’s cute, don't get me wrong, but I’m just not interested.

“Actually someone’s coming to relieve you Daphne, I need you in the back,” Terry says leaning up on the counter. My eyes widened as I looked over at Terry. He just smirks and nods his head toward the door marked ‘employees only’. I nod before wiping my hands off on my pants and head towards that door. I glance over my shoulder to see Terry whisper something in Eli’s ear before he makes his way toward me. 

“Ready for your first assignment?” Terry asks as he makes his way to me. 

A dry chuckle leaves my mouth, “Will it be worse than that?” I ask, pointing my thumb in Eli’s direction. 

Terry’s shoulders shake with quiet laughter, “I hope not, here, c’mon they’re right through here”

I knew Terry was serious about using my medical side to help him out, I just didn’t think it’d be so soon. My mind blanks as I try to shift my focus to that of a 3 year trauma/ICU nurse. Not knowing what I’m walking into I take off my rings and bracelets as we enter the door. Terry leads me down what appears to be basement stairs and then leads me to another door. Before we go in he turns to me standing shoulder-width apart with his hands crossed in his front (REFERENCE).

s it just me or did it get ten degrees hotter in here?

“This kind of goes without saying but, you don’t say anything about what goes on behind this door,” Terry said.

With a nod of my head I say, “Of course not, now let’s see what I’ve gotten myself into yea?”

TERRY

“Gunshot wounds!? Terry, what do you expect me to do with this?!” Daphne asked, examining the semi-conscious man laying on the table. I watched carefully as she threw her locs up in a messy bun and went to work on her “patient”.

“They’re just flesh wounds, mostly just need patching up. You can do that right sweetheart?” I ask leaning back against the door. She rolls her eyes and mumbles out a ‘yeah’. That eye rolling shit is really starting to get on my nerves with how much it turns me on. 

“What kind of supplies do you have?” She asks looking over at me. 

I move to a storage closet on my right and open the door for her, “In here is everything you should need.”  I grab a cart containing multiple drawers with the supplies she might need (reference). Once I wheel it over to her she pauses and looks at the cart then me. 

“This is a hospital grade crash cart,” Daphne said, raising a brow at me. Damn, she’s pretty when she does that too. 

I nod slowly, “Yes, yes it is. I figured how can I ask you to do a job without the proper equipment.”

She lets out a disbelieving chuckle, “How’d you get all this? And can you get it restocked when I’m done with him?”

“Well I can’t really tell you how I got everything, let’s just say everything has its price. I’ll have it restocked before you have to do this again”, I say. 

Daphne just nods and takes a deep breath before heading to the sink, “Well, I’m going to need an extra hand in here. Do you have time or can you send someone else in here?”

“I’ll stay,” I reply with a shrug. She flashes me a small smile before instructing me to wash my hands in the sink. Once I finish I saddle up beside her and wait for instructions. Daphne hands me a pair of gloves instructing me to put them on. 

“Do you have any medical training?”Daphne asks as she puts a stethoscope to Paul’s (gunshot victim) chest. 

“Basic CPR and some shit I had to do in the field,” I say checking Paul’s heart rate 

“What branch?” 

“Who said I was military?” I ask, smirking at her. 

“Terry, be serious, look at how you stand, how you always sit facing the door, and how you talk. Let’s just say it wasn’t that hard for me to tell. Hand me that syringe that says ‘Morphine’ please,” she smiled at me sweetly, pointing at the aforementioned syringe.

I feel my smirk widen against my will, “You’ve been watching me?” I ask, passing her the syringe. 

She rolls her eyes yet again, “Oh don’t flatter yourself. I spent over a decade in healthcare. 25% of those people are from military backgrounds.” 

“So who was it? Mom or Dad?” I ask, holding pressure on Paul’s wound while she places an IV. 

“Huh?”, she asks, not looking up from her task. I can admire the way her nose scrunches and she bites her lip as she works through her task.

“Who was in the military? Your mom or your Dad?” I ask again. 

Daph lets out a small giggle, “What gave it away?” 

I clear my throat and her eyes meet mine. I move my index finger back and forth pointing at me then her, “Same recognizes same, sweetheart.” She huffs out another small laugh before focusing back in. I’m thinking of one thing and one thing only as we work in comfortable silence, patching Paul up. I need to make her laugh again. 

“My mom, she was in the Navy. She was the best,”I say reaching for my locket that had her picture in it. 

Terry nods before looking at me, “I’m sure she was sweetheart. I’m sorry you lost her so soon”. He’s got the prettiest eyes. They’re so expressive I feel like he’s saying more to me with just a look than he ever could with words. 

2.5 HOURS LATER

DAPHNE

When Terry and I exit the basement his club is empty.  “That was good work in there Daph,” Terry said, eyeing me appreciatively. 

“Well it was a simple plug and patch like you said, you probably could’ve done it,” I say, rubbing my hand against the back of my neck. 

Terry takes a step toward me, “You sore?”

“Yeah a tiny bit, it’s been a while since I had to do that. I’ll be fine,” I say, straightening my spine and shifting my hips from side to side. 

“Here let me,” Terry moved behind me, placing his hands at the base of my neck. My spine straightened like a stick was shoved straight up my ass. He starts to knead the stiff muscles in my neck and I feel my shoulders start to slump. He continues to knead and massage the back of my neck. I don’t even notice that I’m leaning back against him.

“Mmm that feels nice,” I say, leaning my hand to the side. He’s so close I can feel his exhale against my neck, I know he can see the goosebumps. 

“Yeah?” he says. I don’t know if I’m imagining it or not but it feels like his lips brush my neck. Before I can say anything else, there’s a knock on the door. I can feel Terry tense up behind me, like somebody poured a bucket of ice water down his back.  

“Go to the back, get your stuff, and leave,” Terry said, taking a step back from me like I burned him. My mind was reeling, I just silently nodded and turned to make my way back to the locker room. Who was at the door that made him shift his whole persona? I’m putting all my shit in my tote back when I hear my phone ring from somewhere inside it. Once I find it I tap the green button putting the phone up to my ear.

“Hey Lex, I’m about to leave now,” I say, slinging my bag over my shoulder. 

“Perfect, I got a ride from Princess. I put my keys in your coat pocket so you wouldn’t have to Uber by yourself this late,” my oh so considerate sister says. 

“You’re too good to me. Dinner on me tomorrow, “ I say, finding the keys she mentioned. Lexi and I yap for a few minutes before we say our goodbyes. Leaving the locker room I bump right into Terry.

“Oh! Sorry didn’t see you there,” I hate how awkward and strained my voice sounds. Terry’s eyes are unreadable as he looks through me. 

“Time to go, I’ll walk you out,” he said then abruptly turned and started down the hallway. 

“What the fuck?” I mumble to myself. I know we aren’t best friends or anything, but I thought that Terry and I were at least breaking down that wall ‘boss/ employee’ relationship between us. I thought we could at least have some sort of civility toward one another. I follow him out towards the main floor of the club and make my way towards the door. There’s a group of men sitting in the center of the club, they all look hella shady. I pick up my pace a little bit so I can get the hell out of there. 

“Daphne?,” I hear as I walk past the table. I look up toward the voice and my blood runs cold. What the fuck is Rafa’s brother doing here?

AUTHOR'S NOTE:  okay, okay. I know this one is short but the next one will be longer I promise. I kind of just wanted to focus on a little bit of character building because this is going to be a series. Let me know what you guys think!

Vile

Pairing: Chris Sturniolo X Female Reader

Synopsis: Y/N is a mean girl who hates a soft boy! She wants her men mean and rough. When Chris doesn’t take this well things start to change….this is for my best friend who literally held me at gun point to write this long ass story😅

Warnings⚠️: This is juicy juicy SMUT. I’m talking hair pulling, smacking, spit, manhandling, knife kink. Chris is mean as fuck and a douchey asshole. So read at your own risk just know she’s juicy

Song for the imagine: One of The Girls- The Weeknd, JENNIE, Lily-Rose Depo

⚠️This is an 18+ story, so minors do not interact, or do??⚠️

Chris was such an annoying little clingy boy. We were friends for some time now, and we were literally the definition of black cat and golden retriever energy. I was always a bitch and cold, I mean I had my soft spots but ehhh. And he was so childish and giddy all the time.

I’m not sure how we became friends, or how we actually liked each other, but we did. I had actually really liked Chris, but something about him acting too childish for me kept me away.

Most of the time we hung out it required me to literally watch him like he was a child. He acted like such a little baby, and one part of me wanted to coddle him, and the other part of me wanted to smack him to reality.

“I can tell you why she ghosted you” I told Chris

“And why is that?” He said rolling his eyes

“Because you’re such a little pussy. You get pussy whipped and you’ve never even met the girl” I told him

“Not fucking true at all” he said sounding offended

“No, it's very true. You’re a munch, and girls don’t like that. Ease off. You’re doing too much” I told him

“Excuse the fuck out of me! Miss perfect. How many guys actually want you around. You’re so meh and dark and MEAN” he said

“Guys like mean girls…..I’ll have you know I get any guy I want” I told him

“Yeah right! I couldn’t be with a girl who’s mean” he said back

“Yeah because you’re too nice, and you’re like a baby. Tighten the fuck up” I responded back to him

“Could you not be mean to me” he said

“Uhhh let me think?? No” I said rolling my eyes at him

“Chris, I'm telling you. Stop being a little softy and you’ll see every girl will fall to their knees for you” I told him

“Would you fall to your knees for me?” He asked with a puppy dog face

“Not until you get mean…..i like my men just as mean, and you doing this puppy dog face is putting you at the bottom of my roster” I said giving him a weird face

“Not a single nice thing out your mouth” he said scoffing and rolling his eyes

“Oh! You see that the scoffing and the eye roll? Yeah, keep doing that. A bad attitude looks good on you” I told him nodding my head

“Ouu are you flirting with me?” He asked smirking

“Most definitely am not” I said laughing in his face

His face drops and he clenched his jaw

“Ohh Chris that was hot as fuck, keep doing it” I told him running my tongue along my teeth

“You think so?” He said getting happy again

“See now I was flirting with you, and that shit went right over your dome” I told him

“Uhhh whatever” he said giving up

I worked at a bar/lounge that Chris and his brothers always frequented. I’m sure it was for me because this is not their scene at all. I found it amusing, but Chris just wasn’t my type

I hadn’t seen the triplets in a good month. Their fame skyrocketed and they were on tour the last I saw on instagram. Man I kind of missed my munch I was getting bored with these guys.

I was working a boring night shift on a Tuesday when nobody would be in. We were so slow I think I washed the shot glasses 25 times….actually might be 26

The front door opened and Chris and his brothers walked in. Immediately my face lit up

“Hey guys” I said

“Y/N heyyyyy” Nick said walking over to sit at the bar

“Yoo” Matt said sitting next to him, and then Chris sat next to Matt

“Hey Chris” I said

He just nodded his head at me….whos this fucking cool guy? I asked myself

“How have you guys been?” I asked them

“We’ve been good, just got back from tour actually” Matt said

“Oh nice how was that? Insufferable I imagine with all the teenage girls screaming” I said

“I missed your negativity! Actually it was really fun” Nick said

“How many tits did you sign Chris? Oh wait your whole fanbase is like 16, and you’re too pussy to do it for the girls that are actually of age” I told him

“Fuck outta here” he said giving me a dirty look

“Oh someone’s a little feisty” I said looking at Matt and Nick

“Yeah he’s been a total dick lately. He’s really fucking pissing us off” Nick said rolling his eyes

“Shut the fuck up” Chris said rolling his eyes

I’m not sure who this new Chris is, but it was really fucking hot.

“Let me take you on a date” Chris randomly blurted out

“Fuck no….have you lost your mind” I told him laughing at him

“Why you gotta do me like that. I’m tryna be nice and ask you out” he said rolling his eyes

“I told you I like my men mean….not posers pretending to be mean” I said back

“Want me to smack you around and call you bitch then? Before you agree to go out with me” he asked scoffing

“Mmm that does sound enticing” I said winking at him

The triplets had left about an hour after hanging around, and I had to finish my boring shift. I was closing solo tonight since it wasn’t busy, and everyone cleaned their area, so I only had a small portion to clean

It was 2AM, and I walked over to the door switching the open sign to closed

I walked back to my area and was wiping down the bar and the tables that were mine. When all of a sudden I heard someone come in….I thought I locked the door??

“I’m sorry we’re closed” I yelled out since my back was turned

“You left the door open….rookie mistake” I heard someone say, I knew that voice

“Chris what the fuck” I said turning around

“Not happy to see me?” He asked frowning

“No…waiting around like some creep” I told him cleaning my last table

“Ohhh you wound me” he said

“Chris you’re so fucking corny please stop” I said shaking my head

“Just give me a chance please I really like you” he said

“You’re acting like a freaky obsessed teenager, NO” I told him

“I can be mean” he said back to me

“Yeah sure you can” I said laughing at him

“I can be mean, and I can fuck you like a dirty slut you annoying bitch” he said walking closer to me

“The fuck did you just say?” I asked shocked, and pleasantly surprised

“You heard me…” he said smugly

“I can make you take back all those things you said about me. When I fuck you like A DIRTY SLUT YOU ANNOYING BITCH” he said raising his voice at the last part

“I doubt you can fuck me good” I said feeding into him

“Oh I’ll have you fucking weeping and limp” he said laughing

“Come on then rude boy, I can take you” I said

Chris stormed over to me and slammed me into the edge of the bar table (fuck that will leave a mark tomorrow). He smashed his lips against mine in a disgusting and sloppy kiss, but it was so fucking hot my knees buckled a bit

“You’re getting nothing but my dick tonight, and I’m going to give it to you how I want, and you’re gonna take it, GOT IT” he said gripping onto my chin harshly

“Yes” I said

We started to make out and he was groping my body harshly with want and need

He pulled away and looked me over while licking his lips

His hand came up to my throat and he started to choke me

“You’re gonna be mine” he spat at me like venom on his tongue

He removed my shirt and my bra. Immediately grabbing my boobs massaging them while looking at my face

“Fuck Chris” I said biting my lip

He grabbed the back of my head and leaned my head down. I was looking at his palm

“Spit” he demanded

“What the fuck no” I told him

He smacked me, “I said spit” and he pushed my head a little harder

So I spat on his palm

“Good fucking girl” he let go of my head kind of pushing me back and brought his palm up to my nipple massaging the spit in

“Ohh fuck” I said throwing my head back

“Yeah what a fucking slut” he said massaging my other breast

“Stop fucking talking and do something” I said which he didn’t like because he spun me around and pushed me against the counter again

“You need to learn to be nice” he said, pulling my hair causing my head to go back. I winced in pain and pleasure

He pulled my skirt down and had me step out of it

“Red lace thong. You’re a mean bitch and a slut” he laughed

“Fuck you” I said

“OH! So vulgar” he said pulling my hair again

“How do you feel about a knife” he asked me massaging my ass with his right hand

“Chris what the fuck are you on” I said trying to look over my shoulder but he didn’t let me

“If I brought a knife up to your pussy would I make you shudder?” He asked in my ear

“You wouldn’t….you're a pussy” I said laughing

The next thing I heard was the sound of a pocket knife opening. This sick fuck, he really had a knife

“I would choose my next words wisely” he said

“Or what” I said rudely

Chris placed the blade on my ass slowly grazing it. This sent a chill down my spine

“I don’t know….you tell me” he said back

“Chris I’m not fucking around don’t be stupid” I told him

Slowly I felt the blade travel further until he slid it under my underwear, and cut the side of it, and then slid it to the other side, and cut the other side letting my now destroyed underwear fall to the floor

He then swiftly turned me around

“Speechless are we?” He said with a smile on his face

He took the knife and slowly ran it up from my stomach to the valley of my breast

“Am I scaring you?” He asked with a fake pout

“No you’re turning me on” I said looking into his eyes

He then pulled my head back allowing my neck to be exposed, and he lightly slid the knife against my neck

“Mmmm how about now” he said taunting me

“Maybe a little bit. The knifes at my fucking throat” I said getting scared

“Good” he said then placed the knife on the counter, and grabbed me harshly throwing me against a table

He flipped me around so my chest was against the table and my ass was up

“Now I’m going to fuck you so hard you won’t even know your name” he said smacking my ass

“Fuck” I said wincing in pain

Chris kicked my legs apart, and started to unzip his pants. Taking his hard dick out. He walked around to where my head was

“Be a good girl and spit on my cock” he said smacking me lightly

I opened my mouth and spit on his cock. He then used that to jerk himself off. Slowly walking back behind me

He was teasing my entrance at such an agonizingly slow pace

“CHRIS PLEASE” I said already fucked out

“Shut the fuck up” he warned

And slowly he slid into me bottoming out in one go

“Mmmm this pussy was made for me” he said groaning

Within a few second Chris was pounding into me like a feral fucking animal. His hips connecting to my ass in loud smacks

“Fuck Chris you feel so good” I moaned out gripping the table

He was pounding into me relentlessly like I was some fucking ragdoll. His dick was touching all the right places

“Give me your hands” he said, but I ignored him

He grabbed my hair and pulled me up

“I said. GIVE ME YOUR FUCKING HANDS” he said throwing me forward

“IM SORRY IM SORRY” I said giving him my hands

He grabbed them together and started pounding into me even harder. How was this humanly possible

“Oh my god Chris” I said moaning and drooling everywhere

He lifted my leg up so my knee was on the table as he thrusted into me

“Such a good fucking slut for me” he said laughing as he smacked my ass with his right hand

“You gonna let me take you on a date now?” He asked

“Yes Chris yes! Whatever you want” I said moaning as tears fell from my eyes from the pleasure

“Good! Letting me fuck you like a dumb slut, and then letting me be your man” he said thrusting into me hard

“Fuck I’m gonna cum” I screeched out

“Yeah cum on my cock” he said as he pounded into me

“Fuck fuck fuck” I said and I came all over his cock. I was shaking and moaning out incoherent words as my legs were about to give out

“Let me cum on your tits” he said as he pulled out of me and roughly turned me over

He jerked himself over before moaning out my name as his lower abdomen constricted and he he came all over my tits

He came down from his high, picking his pants up and catching his breath

“Now how’s that for signing tits” he said lightly smacking me in my face

“Touché” I said rolling my eyes at him

“Let me clean you up, so I can take you home” he said

Chris had cleaned me up, and helped me clean the bar up again before I fully closed, and he decided to take me home

“So about that date?” He said when we pulled up to my house

“Yeah?” I asked him getting ready to get out

“Are you down?”he asked

“Of course! Pick me up tomorrow at 6” I said before kissing him on the lips, and walking to my house.

The End

I hope yall like this one! I haven’t done a Chris smut in a minute. Can’t wait to finish these imagines! I love writing 🤭❤️❤️

hey, hope you're doing well!

I've been re-reading LORE | REKINDLED from time to time everytime a new chapter comes out, it's just something I've been in the habit of doing incase I pick up anything that might've flown over my head the first time and also because your artstyle is just very nice to look at

Though I was wondering, if the gods can teleport, what is the use of cars for? Hades teleported back home and let Charon take his car back which became the inciting incident for Persephone to end up in the Underworld. Is it for carpooling? Just to show off status and riches? To keep up with modern trends?

I hope I didn't come off too strong with my question, it was just something that popped into my mind while I was rereading. Your rewrite is extremely fascinating and I'm excited to see how it continues!

Ouu I've been waiting for someone to ask this! >:3

Olympus and the Underworld differ in how they operate. Olympus has many gods who are revered and worshipped, and as such their society was largely built on the relationship between gods and mortals through the offerings made by humans and the boons given by gods.

The Underworld, on the other hand, couldn't depend on such gifts as many mortals don't worship them in the same way as Olympians - rather, they're feared and whispered about, with the common belief that to speak the names of the Underworld gods would be to invoke death and chaos.

So, to ensure that the Underworld could still develop, Hades had to build the Underworld through the exchange of goods and services (i.e. capitalism).

Shades have no need for economy. They're dead. So while some do wind up working for Hades in indebted servitude (specifically the beings who attempted to bargain with the God of the Dead), the majority of them are simply cast into Asphodel, Elysium, or Tartarus, depending on the judgment given by Hades, and live out the rest of their afterlives wherever they end up.

Through all this, Olympus and the Underworld have worked together closely to advance their respective realms at an even pace. Hephaestus has operated as a freelancer working as a middleman between the two, lending his skills to the technological advancement of the realms.

Satyrs and nymphs make up a large part of the populations in both the Underworld and Olympus (though for nymphs, there are certain restrictions as to where they can travel depending on their original form - not all nymphs can survive in the Underworld) so much of their respective societies were built around the inclusion of nymphs and satyrs as a result. Gods can teleport, satyrs and nymphs can't. As such, much of the technology present in both realms is for the benefit of satyrs and nymphs, including cars. It's why we see Hades driving a car in the first episode (as he was planning on picking up Minthe) and again when showing Persephone the rainbow bridge connecting the realms, but not when he's simply travelling around on his own. Satyrs and nymphs aren't so much "lower class" as they are just beings who don't have the luxuries of teleportation and flight like gods do - they still contribute and are acknowledged as residents of their realms by the gods who reign over them, so the gods have done their part to ensure that the nymphs and satyrs can exist within a functional society that benefits both them and the gods. Just like with the mortals, it's on the gods' shoulders to ensure their subjects can thrive.

Apollo is one of the few gods who uses cars as a status symbol as he has a very distinctly golden vehicle that makes it easy to identify him. He's very much trying to be seen (•̀ᴗ•́)و

omg is he gonna propose already 😭 https://pin.it/2EMFZjW3m

BC!JK

brunch. think brunch y/n you say to yourself as you pick out various outfits in your closet that fit both the warm weather outside and the occasion. “i’m gonna be late, stormy” you whine to your pomeranian who just so happened to be sitting by a matching green outfit. a green tank and matching skirt that you’re sure fits the occasion and will certainly have jungkook’s jaw on the floor because for some strange reason, you enjoy looking good for him.

you make sure to freshen up before putting your outfit on and when you finish doing your hair, you spray yourself down and admire your beauty in your full-body mirror.

“how do i look stormy?” you ask your pup and judging from her rapid panting, you assume she thinks you look gorgeous and you agree. the color brings out your freckles, the gifted necklace, and don’t forget your glasses.

after making sure you lathered yourself in your favorite vanilla scent and making sure stormy was okay, arrive at jungkook’s house at 10 on the dot. you’re hoping you aren’t late and for a few minutes, you sit outside until you remember you have the key to jungkook’s home.

“Hey yn!” jungkook says as you walk inside his rather large home. you’ll never get tired to his home because it is rather huge despite him being the only person that lives in it. even with you around his home still felt rather big but he takes such good care of his home and it’s obvious.

when you make it to the kitchen, you find it so hard to not burst into laughter because here is jungkook in a white tee, sweats, and an apron tied tight around his small waist but the cherry on top is the spatula. while he’s gawking at your beauty, you’re admiring his husband material look.

“morning, jungkook” you smile and like the good host he is, jungkook guides you to his kitchen table where you patiently wait for him to finish cooking.

“ouu, okay chef jungkook” you joke as you push your spectacles up and watch him cook the bacon, sausage, squeeze fresh oranges to make orange juice, and cut up the fruit for additional vitamins.

by the time jungkook finishes, your jaw is on the floor from the presentation alone. one would have thought this was a picture from a google search because that is how well jungkook cooked and organized the wide range of food options for you. it was tedious but the surprised look on your face and your reaction to the first bite is all worth it.

“this is so amazing, jungkook” you say “how did you learn to cook so well? you need to invest in having your own restaurant. people would line up from all over the world to get a taste of your food. starting with your number one supporter, me”

Please just stop making his heartbeat so crazy like this.

You are so sweet, you just called yourself his number one supporter, and it seems like you are because you’ve always supported him… that warms his heart so much. “Yn please I have a very weak heart when it comes to you..” he dramatically puts a hand over his chest. But his eyes are settled on yours.

Because the green dress is just everything, “you know I love perfection and when you’re single, you’ve got to learn how to cook, clean.. yourself.” That is true. He cannot accept anything that’s less than perfect.

Also? Jungkook needs to stop staring at your Body.

It’s really heartwarming for him to watch you actually enjoy his cooking, it’s all worth it, “well yn enjoy the food and then you’ll have fruits.” He announces as he takes a bites of the eggs, and then he shoves a sausage down his throat.

Hmm, he’s not that bad at cooking.

It’s nice to eat breakfast with you, he doesn’t eat breakfast that often. Your company is so calming, and he hopes that he’ll get to experience it often.

“Ynnnn I hope you enjoyed the food- now it’s time for fruits.” He gets up excitedly, and before you can say anything else, he’s already bringing a huge fruit tray.

There is a surprise in the fruit tray, and he’s sure that your reading skills are top-tier, he carefully sets the tray down, and he’s so fucking nervous right now.

He’s kind of artistic and creative, so he hopes he’ll get his vision because he really worked hard on this fruit tray.

Oh God, what if you say no?

“Y-Yn can you read what is written with the fruits?” of course you’re already staring with a shocked face, but here goes nothing.

it’s written “be my gf?”

[jubjubbird]

ouu!! thank you!! i wonder if any of this is stuff u knew already or if it’s changed…

Favorite Color: my favorite color, or at least the one i’ve said is my favorite color since i was super young, is yellow. hell my room used to be yellow. thank fuck it isn’t anymore my poor eyes burned every morning. but i am a dedicated yellow defender forever. visually, my favorite color is purple though. it look nice :]

Currently Reading: i hate to admit it but i’ve fallen out of being the avid reader i was when i was a kid and i hate that fact :(… it feels like nothing captivates me as much as it used to. still, if you count audiobooks, i’m slowly working through his dark materials, specifically the first book, because i never read it as a kid!

Last Song: technically amulet of justice by gloryhammer, but that’s because i’m looping the entire dundaxian story over and over. last one i specifically picked out to listen to was keeper of the celestial flame of abernethy also by gloryhammer bc i think the animation of zargothrax’s clone is rlly cool!

Last Film: i genuinely cannot remember i so rarely watch movies. oh shit wait lmao i forgot the endlessly playing television in the hospital. i can’t say i watched the entire thing from start to finish, this was months ago and also it was 2am at the hospital, so i don’t remember most of it. but i think it was i, robot. at the very least i watched as much of it as i could.

Last Series: i watch series(es?) even less than movies, so i was about to say i don’t know, but then i remembered my dear friend zero who has been showing me the good place :] i’m really enjoying it so far!

Sweet/Savory/Salty: easily sweet if we are talking drinks but savory if we are talking food.

Tea or Coffee: if you’ve known me for long enough you will soon learn of my utter hatred for coffee. plus it was the cause of my last hospital visit anyways so i’d say i have reason to hate it.

Working On: ooh boy quite a lot. i have multiple cross stitch projects i am trying to finish in time to gift to friends, and i am working on one billion websites that i want to finish. i’ve also been meaning to make some ocs before artfight this year. yayyy

Nine People I Wish I Knew Better

i've never gotten tagged in these before, it's kinda exciting :D -> and so a very special thanks to: @rose-margaritas n @robyngoesrogue

Favorite Colour: green!!! or grey, or sage

Currently Reading: Like We're Gonna Die Young (Again) by RoseGanymede95 [go read it, it's amazing >:3c]

Last Song: E.T. by Katie Perry

Last Film: i don't really watch movies that often, so i couldn't say ^óWo^ |u u |__

Last Series: last one i watched all the way through was Étoile, and i'm currently debating watching Red, White, and Royal Blue :3

Sweet//Salty//Savory: i prefer more savory things, but my drinks are sweet enough to give ya cavities hehe

Tea or Coffee?: my sociology teacher told me that if i replaced all the coffee i drank with hard drugs i'd have a serious addiction problem

Working On: ooh... so much actually.. so so much. i've got a post-canon Étoile fic i've gotten like- halfway through [featuring jayenne AND gabias] a pokemon Étoile au [bc i love pokemon] a stobotnik fic i'm struggling with, two wbk fics, a link click fic i'm stuck on, QUITE a few polychampions fics, annnd a few more in the beginning stages of fleshing ;3

𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐞 (jeremiah fisher x deaf!reader)

description: you were sure hell came over, cause how could an attractive boy like jeremiah fisher ask you out?

𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐭𝐰𝐨 (coming soon)

The sun was scalding out today, you were sure that the ocean water would cool you down. But of course, work came first. Working alongside your mother wasn’t to bad. You enjoyed the quality time this gave you with her. Many rich folks would say this isn’t “a real job.” but it provided for your large family so it worked.

These Mexican inspired beach bags sold greatly out here. The women who walked past you and your mother’s stand would Ouu and ahh at all the different designs. It always made you smile, seeing how happy it made your mother even if she sold a little 8$ coin purse.

It sometimes was a struggle though, With your moms main language being Spanish and her only knowing a bit of English. Some impatient customers would walk away in a storm mumbling what you think always were insults. You of course, tried to help as best as you could but with you being deaf you think that only made them more agitated. As soon as you would speak or in better terms write what you wanted to say they rolled their eyes.

You were currently straightening up the purses that sat on the table when you noticed a body slowly stop walking by your stand. You looked up with a shy smile, nerves were on autopilot, your mother had stepped away to use the bathroom so you’d have to deal with this customer alone. On top of that anxiety prickled your skin when you saw that it was a boy your age, a very attractive one at that.

You quickly grabbed your notebook, writing down a quick message.

Hey, how are you? (I’m deaf) :)

You turned the notebook towards him, you watched as his extremely beautiful ice blue eyes followed each word on the paper. Sometimes you thought that you really were meant to be deaf, because you worried if you had a voice you would embarrass yourself letting this boy know just how attractive you thought he was.

The boy smiled, and you were almost positive that if you heard the chuckle that followed you would melt into the ground. He slowly started to speak “Can you read lips?” You nodded your head, catching each word he spoke clearly. “Alright, I’m Jeremiah, what’s your name.?” You quickly turned the notebook back towards you really hoping he doesn’t notice how shaky your hands were. After writing your answer you turned it back towards him.

My name is y/n nice to meet you Jeremiah!

Your eyes immediately went to his lips waiting for him to speak. “Pretty name” You immediately broke out into a smile, Quickly writing out another message.

I wouldn’t call it pretty, but thank you. But are interested in anything here?

You immediately went right back into work mode, that’s why he walked up in the first place right? no way a guy like him would give you attention. “Actually no, everything is nice don’t get me wrong but I actually walked over to give you this.” he held up a ice cold pink lemonade your favorite.

The message you were currently writing back was messy but still readable.

For me why?

“Noticed you out here for awhile, and it’s fucking hot and I don’t want you to die from heat stroke cause you wouldn’t be able to go out with me.” He nervously ran his hand, through his curls blowing out a nervous breath. You almost didn’t catch every word he spoke, his lips moved a little fast that time but it was all good.

You wanna take me out?

You contemplated on writing more but honestly you were thinking this was definitely a dream, no boy has ever walked up to you, doing this it was all new. He nodded his head “Yup, I’ll be back tomorrow same place right?” He asked looking back as if he had somewhere to be. He slowly put down the very delicious looking lemonade down on the table.

Yes, I’ll be here tomorrow:)) bye Jeremiah.

“See you later, pretty girl.” He spoke before walking away.” You immediately grabbed the lemonade, taking big gulps was that real?

~

30 MINUTES BEFORE…..

“I want a challenge so choose wisely!” Jeremiah laughed, looking around the beach. Steven laughed out loud, “I don’t think you want to much of a challenge” Jeremiah smacked his lips “What is that supposed to mean?” Steven shook his head mumbling a never mind, continuing searching for a perfect victim.

His eyes immediately caught sight of you, all alone. “Jeremiah check it out, what about her?” Jeremiah rolled his eyes “no dude not even, that’s like asking to lose.” Steven threw his head back in annoyance “Why not dude? It’s gotta be her, she deserves a good time to.”

Jeremiah smacked him in the back of his head. “You know what? Yeah, she’s perfect.” Steve nodded his head “Alright so you have to start now, she’s one of those girls who never come out at night.” Jeremiah laughed “I got it, this should be easy, ask her out, date her for awhile, get her to say or sign that she loves me or whatever and I’ll leave her in the dust.”

“Yeah, and if all goes according to plan you win yourself 500 bucks.” Steven excitedly pushed Jeremiah away.

Happy early birthday! Can you do the fake dating trope? For Jumin, definitely🥰

✨✨SISSI!!!✨✨

OUU, I LOVE THIS TROPE. I was too shy to write it cuz there are so many BRILLIANT renditions, but I’ll try!!

(I’m totally still working on your first ask, too >w<)

“Your mother is coming to visit?

Furiously rubbing his temples, Jumin grunted an affirmation. You had never seen him in such a state; it was very… un-Jumin-like of him to show an ounce of anxiety.

“She sent this. You can read it, if you like.” Sliding a thick paper your way, you pushed your hair back and started reading.

Jumin couldn’t help but smirk at your expressions — how they went from curious, to skeptical, to horrified.

“Jumin, she… she’s terminally ill…?”

“… It seems so.”

The nonchalant tone in his voice sparked something in you. Forcing the letter down, you pressed both palms against his mahogany desk. “How could you be so uncaring? This is your mother, not some stranger from off the street, Jumin.”

Jumin stared at you. Something inexplainable in his eyes — a flash of unknown darkness — made you stand down.

“Is it so important to you that I meet with her?” Jumin asked, drumming his fingers anxiously against the letter.

“… Well…” you clasped his hand, stilling his jittery movements. “As your friend? Yes. You do for family.”

His long lashes covered the conflicting look in his eyes. “All right. I’ll do it.”

You moved to release his hand, surprised he allowed you to hold onto him for this long. But you remembered something — something you had skimmed over previously. Snatching the letter, you began to read it again.

“No, I’m not engaged to anyone from the Christopher family.”

“… Okay, how did you know I was looking for that.”

“You are incredibly easy to read,” Jumin sighed. “Your eyes speak before your mouth moves.”

“… Nu-uh,” you murmured under your breath.

Pressing his tense back against the chair, Jumin closed his eyes. “I had forgotten who that family was until today. I certainly didn’t know I was engaged to any of them.”

Your eyes grew. “Did your mother arrange it when you were little?”

“She did so many things,” Jumin replied, his voice an octave above a whisper. “I originally had plans to get out of meeting with her, but.” His intense gaze in your direction nearly made you blush.

“Oh, come on. How bad could it be, Jumin?”

“You don’t know my mother the way I do.” Long fingers began fiddling with his tie pin. “Do you remember, when we met, you expressed that I was a hard-ass, or a tough, demanding, and uncompromising person according to Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary?”

“… Yeah?”

“She is 1⁄1,000,000 times worse.”

Your eyes darted.

“She is worse.” Despite the situation, Jumin couldn’t help but notice how often he was grinning.

Specifically in your direction.

“Yikes,” you whistled, resting your chin in your hand.

Silence lingered… until you slammed your hand against the desk. “I have an idea.”

Eyes glancing from the table to your hand, Jumin suppressed another laugh upon noticing you were barely holding in your discomfort. “Yes, well?”

“Stay with me, here. What if I pretended to be your fiancée? That way, your mom won’t pressure you into marrying that Christopher chick!”

Jumin’s head rose slowly, steel-gray eyes trained on you the entire time. His face was illegible… it always was. Your nerves kicked in, but you proceeded confidently.

“There’s no harm in it! I’ll dress up, drape myself over your arm, make a nice show of it, and that’ll be —”

“No.”

You deflated. “… But I wasn’t done.”

“No.” Standing quickly, Jumin stepped down from his desk and moved to fetch a hidden bottle of whiskey.

Your cheeks flushed and your heart hammered recklessly in your chest — had Jumin just rejected you? Granted, the situation was a hypothetical one, but still…

Your feet remained planted on the floor; you felt ashamed to move, wanting the tile to open up and eat you alive. You inhaled “I mean, I know I’m not heiress material, but… I was just trying to help, I guess.”

Jumin set his glass down. “Wait, that’s not what I meant at all.” Nearly tripping over his loafers, Jumin rushed to your side, gripping your chin “Listen to me. My mother is a ruthless woman. Very cruel. She will go out of her way to insult you, even if all that is left of you is a coffin in the ground. I can’t expose such a person to you.”

You took a deep, calming breath. So that’s what it was. “Jumin, I’m grown. Besides, you’ll be with me, so it’s not like I’m gonna be left alone with her!”

Fingers pressing into your cheeks a little too much, Jumin’s eyes searched yours. “Why would you do this for me?”

With puckered lips, you answered as best you could. “Cu-th yerr mah fwen.”

Releasing you, Jumin dug for his handkerchief and blotted the spit on your lip. “That’s right. We are friends, aren’t we.”

“And since I consider the RFA to be family, you’re family too! And you do for family!”

Jumin raised his brows, unenthused. “… Great. Then. I’ll have clothes sent to your apartment for you to try. Feel free to express your opinions freely to me tonight, as I’ll be picking you up for a session on tea.”

“Oh, because your family loves brewing tea, right?”

“Correct. How comfortable do you feel in stilettos?”

“… Uh…”

“No harm in trying them, then.” As Jumin tapped delivery instructions onto his keypad at a furious pace, you reached for a chocolate candy from a tiny bowl on his desk, unwrapped it, and popped it into your mouth.

You did not expect for Jumin to grab your hand with a touch more tender than the cut of beef you ate the night of the party. “Mm — Jumin!?”

He lowered his head, warm lips pressing a kiss onto the back of your hand. You were in too much shock to register that he had placed another kiss on your knuckles.

You were still in a state of shock, the chocolate dangling on your tongue as Jumin leaned in, his chest barely touching your own as he swept your hair back with deft fingers.

The same lips that that had kissed your hand were now pressed against your ear; Jumin exhaled, the very sound frightening and exciting you. “Then. I’ll see you later, my dear.”

You had no time to react; Jumin pulled away just as quickly as he had moved in, throwing his jacket on and leaving the office.

You shoved more chocolates into your mouth and prepped yourself to follow suit. If this was what it was like being engaged to Jumin, then… well… there was no harm in liking it a little.

OKIE, imma have to break this down into parts cuz the idea I have is pretty substantial. I don’t want Tumblr to yell at me like HRRBLRR, LIMIT REACHED.

Hope you liked dis first part!! and omg I swear I will continue writing this. I suck at writing parts, but imma DO DIS.

Fic: A Tale or Two Deaths

Author: @emblue-sparks

Rating: T

Summary: Billie awakens in the Empty and is greeted by someone unexpected. When recognizing the unique opportunity not previously afforded them, each share who and what gave them the perspectives they now maintain.

Ok here we go!

So seriously the imagery is overall gorgeous in this fic I love it.

They took in the scenery, absorbing what they could of the sensory perceptions available. The environment’s underlying static dampened the authenticity of whatever it was that did play to the senses.

very cool description of the empty nice writing here.

They became aware of a breeze which should have been cool to the skin, yet barely registered as the ghost of wind. It was a poor simulation. 

more cool writing good job dude

"You?" She queried, having wondered since his universal presence was abruptly non-existent from the multiverse. All but Death had a book, an irony she considered poetic.

Ouu that IS poetic and I would be dying to know as well if I was her (pun intended)

"Chuck pushed me into being the villain," she growled, then immediately reeled herself in

I mean she truly was just trying to do her job.

Julian commented matter of factly, smashing a bit of wet moss between his fingers in examination.

I like this little gesture

Her neighbors were murdered or taken. Her baby was gone, her wife's mangled corpse was left to bloat among hundreds of others. It was then that she begged for death.

horribly sad

Julian appeared taken aback, as if no one had ever thought to ask him. And perhaps nobody had.

love this also this made me think that since death is as old as god he must have had several vessels before the one we know.

To read the rest of this great little fic, head over to Ao3 and be sure to leave Blue kudos and comments!

Eeeeeeeee I'm always looking for unpopular and new fantasy books to read!!

(I'm assuming disenchanted is unpopular bcs this is the first time I'm hearing about it, but maybe it's just me?)

so is this a series or a standalone? what's the romance quota? and the male lead hehe?

ouu and I love me a pregnancy trope

thank youuu <3

YESSSS ANON I AM SO GLAD YOU ASKED.

ahem. *puts on my garin lives in my mind rent free sweatshirt while skimming through my personalized copy of disenchanted* it was many moons ago when i discovered disenchanted. or more accurately may of last year and oh my did it consume me.

currently disenchanted only has one book released however the author, brianna sugalski, is currently writing the sequel disillusioned (which i may or may not have helped with the title naming process. probably not but it's nice to dream).

it centers around the princess of france, lilac trécesson, setting out on a journey through the brocéliande forest to rid herself of an.... ailment. you see, she can speak the darklings' (pretty much any creature that isn't human) tongue and that doesn't sit well with lilac's people. or her parents for that matter.

during this life-changing journey she happens upon a young man named garin, now he may be the most beautiful man she's ever met but she wouldn't admit that out loud, of course. they exchange words, and you can tell they already have some chemistry so this is when my interest was really peaked bc i am nothing if not a slut for romance.

time passes and it's revealed that garin has a secret of his own.... now i won't spoil it but, he's hot. very hot. and also very sarcastic, and has a habit of scolding entitled pricks on how to properly stab him. as my sweatshirt claims, he truly does live in my mind rent free.

anyhow, lilac and garin become somewhat reluctant travel companions and it's a grand old time. they laugh, they cry, lilac nearly dies at least twice. some meddling fae might become involved. it's really an incredible traipse through the brocéliande forest. 10/10 would come again.

i don't want to spoil too much of the later parts of the book but trust me. it's good. i love the development lilac has throughout the story, coming to realize that she is enough. as is.

as for the last bit of your ask... there isn't a pregnancy trope. at least not yet. i was just commenting on something brianna said in an instagram post she made today, idk if she means there will be parenthood for lilac and/or garin or if she means something entirely different. either way, i'm here for it.

i hope you enjoyed this silly little ask, i'm not usually good at explaining what books are about but it's fun to try and i just really love this book lmao. as always, if anyone reads disenchanted and likes it, come talk to me about it PLS. on the other hand, if you don't like it, don't tell me bc i couldn't handle it.

so all in all.... disenchanted supremacy.

Prince Charming and the pauper PT #1

AN: this is my first fan fic so let me know what you think and if you want another part! Suggestions are always welcome

Words: 2,400

About: Brock Boeser finds an unexpected love intrest....

YOUR POV

It was a pretty normal December night in Vancouver, Cold and snowy and all I wanted was to be hanging out with my friends around a fire drinking hot chocolate but of course I was stuck at work.. My name is Y/N I’m 22 years old and I work full time as a waitress at the Parlour in Yaletown. Now normally my shifts went by slowly and painfully, each day an exact copy of the day before with the occasional cute boy or maybe even a celebrity but for the most part my days blurred together as one. Work all day, sleep, repeat just so I could afford to live in one of the most expensive cities in the world, part of me didn’t mind, Vancouver really was an amazing place to live.

Today however was different. Every year the Vancouver Canucks hold their end of year dinner party here at the Parlour, I’ve been lucky enough to avoid it at all cost. Unfortunatly for me my luck has run out and I was scheduled to be one of 3 waitresses serving their party. Some girls would kill for this opportunity, serving rich professional athletes, but not me. I’ve served my fair share of hockey players and they all turn out to be assholes who don’t know how to leave a tip.

BROCK’S POV

I couldn’t really believe that this was my third end of year dinner as a Canuck, time has gone by way too fast. It was almost 6PM, I was waiting for Quinn to pick me up, he said he would be here by now and If we’re late I will beat his ass. He knows how much I hate being late. As if on que I felt my cell phone vibrate in my pocket. The Screen read “Huggy Bear” I chuckled to myself as I am still thankful that isn’t my nickname and I answered the phone. “hey you here?”. “Yeah hurry up, Green will kill us if were late” Quinn said so fast I barely caught what he said and the line went dead. I said goodbye to Coolie and Milo and I made my way to Quinn’s car.

Once I got into Quinn’s car it was only a 5-minute drive to the restaurant. Yaletown was our favourite place to get food, they have way too many places to choose from but the Parlour was one of the best. We walk up to the host and let her know we’re here for the dinner, she escorts us to the back room where the rest of the team was already seated. You could hear the boy’s voices echo through the whole restaurant. Guess that’s what you get with 20+ drunk men at one table. “yo that host was smoking, I’ve seen her here before and she was definitely interested in you” Quinn teases me but I do my best to ignore. Not to be cocky but girls tend to flirt with me all the time but on the contrary to what people think I’m not a player. I don’t flirt unless I’m interested which I never really am because it’s hard to know people’s real intentions when you’re a professional athlete, besides I’m not really looking for anything right now. I leave the flirting up to Jake.

5 minutes go by and we all finish looking at the menu, I always get the same thing a BBQ burger with a hey y’all as my drink but doesn’t hurt to look. As I put the menu down I notice three women walk into the room, we all drop our tones so we can tell the waitresses our orders. Two of them are the same as last year but one I did not recognize but wow she was beautiful and I don’t say that lightly.

YOUR POV

6PM rolled around quicker than I would’ve liked but I just wanted to get this dinner over with. Once we knew all the boys were seated and ready to order we went into the room, notepads in hand. We decided we would split the table in three and make it easier for ourselves that way. I’m not a hockey fan but I don’t live under a rock and I do recognize most of the boy’s I’m serving. I go from left to right, and to my surprise the orders are basic and the drinks are all beer which makes my life a lot easier and on top of that they all seem to be pretty nice. I finally reach the last two boys in my section of the table. Both look somewhat younger. One has dark brown curly hair with dark circles under his eyes, I don’t recognize him, he orders a burger as well as a beer, I furrow my eyebrows debating whether or not to ID this boy as he barely looks 17 but I decide against it as I know it would embarrass him and probably cost me a good tip. As I’m writing down his order I notice the boy sitting next to him eyeing me. I look up and make direct eye contact with two very blue eyes staring at me. I shift my feet and he look away. That’s Brock Boeser I recognize him from my friends fangirling over him last time we went to watch the hockey game. My stomach twists and I suddenly got nervous. He was kind of hot. I take a step away from the tired looking boy closer to Brock to take his order. “W-What can I get for you” I stuttered slightly, and I NEVER stutter when taking orders. What was wrong with me this boy isn’t anything that special, although his hair does flow kind of nicely. “Um can I please get the BBQ burger and a Hey y’all” he said softly. “yeah good choice, can I please see your ID?.” As soon as those words left my mouth I instantly regretted them and I felt my cheeks get hot “my bad umm don’t need to see your ID never mind  I’m just going to go put these orders through” I said before I practically ran out of the room more embarrassed then I have ever been. I just asked BROCK BOESER for ID and not the 17-year-old looking kid sitting right beside him, I am such an idiot. I walked to the kitchen and put in the orders and just prayed he would still tip me. As I waited, I felt my mind drifting to him I had to shake it off as 1) I was at work, I have to be professional and 2) hockey players are bad news.

BROCK’S POV

The whole room went silent, and then everyone erupted into laughter and proceeded to tease me about what had just happened. “Mr. Sensitive getting ID’d sitting next to Quinner that’s classic” Taney shouted across the table. I felt myself smile as I thought about what had just happened, I could tell she was flustered and it was standard practice to ask for ID although I do look about 30. She ran away with the orders before I could even ask for her name. she was beautiful, long blonde hair, blue eyes and a lot shorter than me I’d say about 5’4 I couldn’t stop smiling and the boys started to notice. “ouu Boes is day dreaming” Petey joked “at least ask for her name” he said while giving me a nudge “yeah yeah I will” I replied

About 25 minutes went by and we were all a few drinks in, the girl still hadn’t returned I assumed she was avoiding me. Next thing I know the food starts to get brought in.  A part of me really hopped she would come back just so I could admire her again and maybe ask for her name. Moments later I see her long blonde hair turn the corner. She’s looking at her feet avoiding all eye contact. She approaches me and places the plate down in front of me and starts to walk away. All the boys were looking at me, waiting for me to make a move and ask for her name but I couldn’t seem to speak. “Hey miss!” I heard Petey yell. She turned around and looked at me and just as fast looked away and towards Petey. “Brock over here wants to know your name” he smirked and I felt my heart sink and bile rise to my throat, did he seriously just throw me under the bus like that. I was pissed. At first she didn’t say anything, she just stood there like she didn’t know what to do but her eyes shifted to mine as she said “ Y/N, my name is Y/N” and just like that she was out of the room before I could even ask her anything else. My emotion soon turned from happy to pissed off really quick. “Way to throw me under the bus Petey, she probably thinks I was talking about her now or something” I scoffed and sank into my chair like a child. “you should be saying you’re welcome, if I hadn’t said something you never would have”. Part of me knew he was right. I’m pretty shy and reserved and I like to keep to myself unless I know you.

YOUR POV

Did that really just happen. Did Brock Boeser really want to know my name or were his teammates just messing with me? Either way I can’t seem to stop smiling. I came into this night wanting nothing to do with it or these boys and all of a sudden the one boy I find attractive in there wants to know my name?.

The night is coming to an end, I’ve avoided the room as much as possible, I’ve been in and out grabbing plates and refilling drinks, no more comments have been made just many stares. We’ve made eye contact once or twice a small smile included but my time is up and it’s time for the bills. I go around my side of the table one by one receiving a very drunk thank you from each of them until I get to Brock. Apart of me wants to say something but knows its unprofessional. I hand him the card machine, brushing hands as he takes it from me and we both look at each other. Het lets out a small laugh, I could tell he’d had some drinks but not nearly as many as the rest of the boys which weirdly made me feel relieved. He puts his passcode in and hands me back the machine, I take out the receipt and notice he tipped me 200$. As he stands up to put his coat on I say to him “You must’ve made a mistake, it says you tipped 200$ maybe you mean 20$?” he turns to me a flashes a smile “No mistake you deserve It” I almost felt like crying of happiness as 200$ to me means a lot more then to him. “oh, wow um thanks you so much, I hope you have a good rest of your night” I say barely being able to suppress a smile.

“yeah about the rest of the night, I’m having some friends over and I wanted to know if you wanted to umm maybe join?’ he said somewhat hesitantly. Almost as if he was nervous.

“I finish shift in an hour” I replied more confidently then id expected. “oh, great okay here’s my number text me after for the address” he replied almost surprised I had said yes. I tried to keep my cool but inside my stomach was doing flips. Brock Boeser what are you doing to me…..

Thanks Moonie!!! I have so much fun writing it!!

[mystic-kitten-writer]

It’s wonderful how you love reading people’s words about almost anything and attend to their words, being able to sense their feelings behind it. And I agree, it’s so lovely when you can sense a person’s joy through their words, as you said! Here I am once again, feeling special, thanks to you 💛 You’re a darling! And I’ll try my best to send long asks whenever possible!! (1/11)

Ahh, it’s going to be a while before I actually feel comfortable doing chart readings! But you know what? I would be happy to read your astrology chart for free, if you want! It would be great practice for me and it would give me a chance to grow my confidence. Though only if you want, let me know! ☺️ I’m so happy to know you’re learning and grasping everything perfectly! The way you believe in me astrology-wise makes my heart all warm 💓 (2/11)

I’m sorry your summer courses got cancelled btw, especially since you were on track to graduate. Hopefully, this gives you time for yourself though. I wish I can say I enjoy being active too, but it’s not something I do often tbh. Though I do love walking, as well as dancing (but it’s been a while). I need to find more activities that can get me moving 😔 Ah I see, what solo activities do you like doing to stay active? (I fall on the introverted side, I tend to favor being alone too) (3/11)

I’m on the same boat as you + your family. I haven’t been outside since mid-March and being at home until now has made me a bit antsy. It probably added to the weird headspace I was in too. Though that’s gone now, I’m feeling much better + less stressed thankfully. The semester is still in session for me, I’ve got about until mid-May until it’s over. Though I’m glad that school will be over before my birthday, so that’s a blessing I’m super thankful for! I can enjoy my day in peace, aha. (4/11)

Manipulation can be associated with a few other signs too actually, but Scorpio is definitely up there in the top three! And it is definitely true that that as you get older, you can either grow more into your sign’s archetype or some traits lessen over time. Rather than it being some traits disappearing, it’s more likely due to other planetary energies in certain signs coming into play and becoming more prominent. (5/11)

There’s also this point in everyone’s chart, the midheaven. It’s been said that whatever sign a person’s midheaven is in, that person shows more of that energy as they get older. Which brings me to how you got the impression that I’m a Libra! My midheaven is in Libra, which is probably why you felt that more than Taurus. It’s fascinating, especially since we’re just interacting through messages. Didn’t know my Libra energy was showing that strongly but it’s nice being aware of that now! (‪6/11‬)

I will definitely let you know if any of my guesses change when I do a rewatch of the whole series! (P.S. did you hear the announcement that A:TLA will be on Netflix ‪on May 15th‬?!) And to make it more fun, I’ll assess the other characters as well and share what signs I believe they could possibly be! I’ll consider it my mini summer project 😋 But oh my gosh, soft Zuko in the comics? 🤧 Maybe I should read the comics too then, since it might give me more material to work with. (‪7/11‬)

Your questions made sense, it’s all good! I think the best thing to refer to and see how Yue’s Venus energy influences Zuko’s Cancer side is that conversation in chapter 22 of Limerence, where Zuko told Yue that if having a family meant having a family with her, then that’s all he could ever want. Of course, he loves her, so there’s no doubt about them having a family together eventually. (‪8/11‬)

Though this is highlighted more with Yue’s Venus + Zuko’s Cancer energy because those energies meshing creates a soft/tender vibe, which makes coming together and creating a family highly ideal. Because Venus carries this loving energy which reinforces Cancer’s love for being domestic. As for the dynamic of Yue’s Libra and Zuko’s Aries, I feel that it’s one of the things that sets the overall tone for their relationship. (‪9/11‬)  

With Aries/Libra, it’s kind of a classic case of Venus & Mars, so Yue being the affectionate/gentle one while Zuko being the intense/bold one, that paints the picture of their Aries/Libra dynamic. All that Libra/Scorpio energy in your sister’s family though, wow!! There are some common patterns in astrology that can occur with family, and one of those patterns can manifest as a certain sign or two being strong in the family. I guess that’s completely true for your sister! (‪10/11‬)

I’ll wrap all of this up by saying that chapter 33 of Limerence is completely enthralling! With every single chapter, I’m just in love with your storytelling. You’re such a fantastic writer! And also, it’s very enjoyable talking to you every time! Thank you for showing such warm energy always, it’s refreshing 💜 -  🌻 (‪11/11‬)

AHHHH – my lovely 🌻-anon~! 🥰🥰🥰

How long have you been studying astrology, and how long does it usually take for one to gain the confidence and skills to provide a service? I’m just so curious – but I never had anyone to ask these questions and learn. I’m sorry if these queries sound silly 😅

BUT BABE.

I would love a reading – but I’ll have to give you something. I refuse to not pay or give something back (even if small!). Plus, I need to say thank you for indulging me and letting me bother you non-stop with my questions 😂 But, seriously – you should be confident. You have literally not only captured my interest but a lot of others too!

Honestly, as sucky as it is to not graduate, I’m doing exactly that – taking the time for myself. I’ve been going for walks as of late while listening to some tunes! I live near conservation, so I’m lucky that I have a huge forest with lakes and a beach to unwind. But before I got hurt, I used to do cross-country, high-jump, and shotput (I miss those days 😭).

But, if you enjoy dancing – I encourage Zumba💃

I know it seems random, but it’s something super fun to do by yourself (or with someone else, I usually do it with my mom) and it just gets you moving. I’ve been doing Zumba almost every day because sitting on the couch is starting to get to me. It’s totally random – but it’s a fun way to get active in the comforts of your home, and you got some fun music to listen to. I’m glad to hear you’ve gotten out of that weird headspace though – I relate a lot to you in that aspect. It can take a while to get out of it, but the important part is that you did it! And I wish you the best with school, you’re almost done.

Also, happy Taurus season, babe~! 😘😘

Ouu, so what other signs associate with manipulation? I always hear Scorpio, so you’ve piqued my interest. And, I’m going to be honest, I’m still in shock that you’re a Taurus LOOL. I don’t know why, but the way you write reminds me of some of my friends/family who are Libras. You just have this diplomacy when you write? Do I sound crazy – probably 😂😂. I’ve never heard about the midheaven, but now that you told me that, it does make a lot of sense. Like you know how Zuko screams Mars? You scream Libra for me😋

YES I DID HEAR. Okay, so I’m from Canada, so ATLA is already here for us to watch – but my best friend (he lives in the States) literally called me screaming in excitement. We’re planning binge-watching dates for us to video chat and watch together. So I think I can safely assume you shall be binge-watching ATLA starting May 15 😉😉

Soft Zuko.

I swear, I fangirled soooooooo damn hard.

My heart – gone.

Soul – snatched.

Zuko is just such a cutie, like a teddy bear – with that smile of his and I just ajsdksadjksjdkasdksd My body can’t handle this level of cuteness. Like he has his kick-ass moments, but getting to see that other side of him was beautiful. My favourite moment was he gives Kiyi a piggy-back ride and tucks her into bed. If you end up reading the comics – you gotta let me know. I’m dying to know what you think of it!

It was also neat seeing Katara’s and Aang’s relationship develop in the comics (and Toph). Like the comics captured the essence of an awkward teenage romance (Katara and Aang) blooming into a long-lasting relationship. Like my friends said they cringed so hard during some ‘romantic’ moments between them, and they’re like it made us cringe not because it was bad, but because that was us when we were teenagers with our partners.

Oh wow – thank you for the examples! Honestly, it makes sense now about the domestic aspects with Zuko’s Cancer and Yue’s Venus. I just needed to make sure I was understanding it, I need to know these facts👏👏 But I swear – I feel like their whole relationship is the definition of chaotic neutral 😂😂

Is there a reason why certain signs have a strong presence in certain families (like you mentioned how you have a lot of ‘me’s’ in yours lol). Or is just random?

But I’m glad you enjoyed chapter 33, love! It feels so nice to get back into a writing routine – I was going nuts, not able to write consistently. I need to channel my chaotic energy into my stories LOOL

But I hope you’re taking care of yourself (family and friends included) in these times! It’s nice engaging in these long chats, it makes so happy (can you tell 😂).

I can’t wait till I hear from you again🌻~! 💜💜💜

[thediaryofnat-blog]

Hello I guess...

This is weird, but who the fuck cares. No offence, but Tumblr is just sort of cliche. Yeah, I know that makes me a cliche too, yet here we both still are. This is just going to be a safe place where I vent about my stupid feelings, the ex’s I still hook up with (oops), the midlife crisis that I’m having because turning 20 makes me feel like I’ve pretty much accomplished nothing, some pics of shit I’m doing and maybe some pictures of other shit too, and everything in between. If you know me in real life, please don’t fucking read this shit (unless you’re the ex that I’m still in love with, you can read this shit because I’m guessing over half of it will be about you anyway).

You want to know me a bit? Well, here’s some pointless (and not very interesting) facts about me and my life;

I live in Canada and have my entire life.

I’m in University, studying Politics Science (want some tea about that fact? Well, the ex that I’ m in love (the one I talked about not even two seconds ago) applied to the same school and program that I’m in for next year so basically just fuck me in the ass).

I have a lot of siblings, like seriously 6 of them (five sisters and a brother), no my parents aren’t Amish or anything they just got divorced and now were one phat family. That was so fucking cringy I’m truly sorry you had to read that.

Ouu one time I went through a bad break up (HOLY SHIT YES IT WAS THE SAME EX! YEAH I TOLD YOU THIS WILL CONSIST OF HIM A LOT), anyway as I was saying, I went through a bad break up and went on a complete sex bender and brought my body count up like 10 people oops

I had this best friend for 18 fricken years of my life (literally met her in daycare before my first birthday) and I don’t know why but I miss her and I felt like that needed to go here (because no one is reading this far anyway)(honestly, don’t think anyone read this at all but fuck it). 

What else do people say when they’re introducing themselves to strangers... I’m questioning my religion so that’s on my mind too. 

So I guess if you actually read that, it’s nice to meet you and I hope you stick around because I can always use some more friends. DM me if you want (do you call tumblr messages DM’s? idk I’m new here sorry). 

See you on the flip side (actually I’ll probably just see ya in the next post). 

OH SHIT, also my names Natalie

[thekillingmoonmoon]

hellooo =)

i have had... quite a week, lol. we have a whiteboard with all our deadlines and for the last few months it's been top to bottom full, but today we had an informal group meeting to look it over one last time... then wipe it down and clear it of everything! so now it's a new set of deadlines, which is great for us, mentally. i have two new projects to start from scratch plus one that was taken off hold, so that's pretty exciting. how was your weekend (i think at this point i can add week)? i saw inupi's piece go up! i'm excited to read all three together!

do you still do the journaling? like with a blank page and you draw out all the boxes, sections, headers and such? i always thought peoples' page layouts looked so pretty when i used to see them posted online. i won't lie, i love washi tape. and you totally could wallpaper parts of your apartment with it! you could washi tape the narrow band of outer doorframe casing and the inner strip of doorstop. i should remember this, i might do it in my rooms. you always prompt such fun ideas out of me, haha ^_^

OU the collins classics with the mostly black spine and white lower quarter? if yes, i love those because it reminds me of pantone cards. which one is your favourite cover?

ouu (i feel like a lot of my sentences are going to start with ouu today) what colours are your flowers? i wish i could cultivate any sort of garden or flowerbed but i seem to be some sort of vampire that leaches plant life force... i've never been able to keep anything alive for very long ^_^;;;

aha we are opposite in work-voice, mine lowers. i started talking to the new person about non-work stuff to try to convince them i am not, in fact, a robot. it's been a few weeks and i think they're slowly getting used to all of us now, which is nice.

the sewing au (we need a name for it. sew-kyo revengers?) is really taking shape (lollll i'm not sorry) and i love it. i think rindou does give feedback and requests on material selection. maybe that's what the dud pairs are, not only functional revenge pairs, but material testers. you just know rindou will put one on and immediately drop down into a squat or a side split and mitsuya will talk about the spandex percentages that would affect how shiny the pants look versus how stretchy they can be. he'll use yoga pants as an example. rindou will take the yoga pants home, for research. they will be so comfortable they will not return to mitsuya's sewing studio. ran does crackle and pop! i'll bet he also makes creaky door noises! in bonten he and omi have creak-offs... it's this, lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjKB0rc3V_g

sanzu as an agent of petty chaos might be my favourite part of all this (you know i'm biased for sanzu though) bc we can make him do the most irritating things. they'll be in a room before a meeting and he'll casually bring up the upcoming holiday season and potential gift giving and watch all three just tense up. you're right, he'll totally find her socials and make sure the screenshots include the little band underneath to show that he's hearted it, before sending it on its merry way to koko. i want to give mikey a personality or something but i just see him absentmindedly munching on a dorayaki.

sunburn and braais in christmas sounds amazing XD. is it like a humid heat or a dry heat during the christmas season? (i'm asking a lot of questions this time, i'm sorry haha). i thought about how i would describe what i like about winter here. sometimes at night it's dead silent outside, no wind, no city or animal noise, and the air is just the right amount of crystalline cold that makes it seem like the world has been frozen and time stands still. yeah, that's probably my favourite part. close second is the crunching sound walking on snow makes as it compresses under your boot.

i am so jealous of your heart-baking, and the fact that at the time of writing you had pizza dough going! how was it! i've never made pizza from scratch. i would probably overload it with cheese and it would be a soggy mess. have you ever had an inkling to add something not originally listed in a recipe and have it turn out better than expected?

ahh it's good to have a lot of playlists... you'd definitely be able to find something to fit any mood or vibe. i'm always excited by the yearly spotify wrapped playlist they send you. haha really looking forward to seeing the eight songs i had on repeat for days on end at the top, and then whichever playlist's songs afterward.

i'll send inupi soon, sorry i always send the fic responses after the lifey messages 😔💐

Helloo! I missed you! I hope you're okay

and never apologise for the lifey responses, I cherish them so

Ooo, a whiteboard wipe and re-order! that can be a good happening! a nice fresh start without all the inky scribbles and arrows moving projects along and adding and subtracting deadlines and details, so I hope the new schedule brings about some positive change for the ends of the year

My weekend was pretty slow, as was the start of this week, my fatigue decided to come back in full swing so I had to reprioritise some things (including writing, wah) BUT it seems like this weekend will be good - I'm seeing my roommate from uni for cake!

As for journalling... hm.. I wish I did all the cute hand-drawn things but I'm too rigid, really. I do draw up my own calendars and schedules and go to town with washi taping those, but other than that I don't have the patience for the calligraphy and daily planning - i use a normal printed diary that I customise for that (I paste in schedules and calendars so that it becomes very fat and tattered)

Okay so Collins classics covers? I really enjoy the Hamlet cover, with our "poor Yorick' on full display - plus the covers for both of Homer's epics are really stunning. I love when they use classic paintings as covers for classic books! which cover is your fave?

My flowers are bright pink, magenta and white - not my usual colour palette but theyre very cheerful XD Can I suggest either a philodendron or Japanese peace lily (unless you have a cat that likes to nom everything) both of them don't require much maintenance so maybe they will be immune to your plant vampirism >_<

I CACKLED at that simpsons clip, thank you! then I absolutely lost it at the idea of Ran and Takeomi having that kind of interaction (Takeomi would win though, he's got older bones). That also reminded me of my dad, because wow, everyone needs to know when he's sitting down or standing up, and he makes sure of it by making all the noises. In the same vein, my partner and I have not so much 'creak-offs' but 'pop-offs', because both of us have really crackly joints. However, he can make his joints pop, mine just sort of *happens* and everyone around me looks on in horror as most of my skeleton relocates itself. sigh..

Does Mitsuya now have his own patented fabrc due to the Haitanis? yes. It is Haitani tested and approved, suitable for lounging and getting into a fist fight. tear-free and blood-repellant. it's a little shiny from the spandex, but Haitanis don't mind a bit of sparkle, do they? To be fair, Rindou suddenly dropping into a squat in a new pair of pants is something i would do to (with an accompanying crackle) because if there's something i'm picky about, it's making sure I can move around freely in my clothes (jeans are a strong no) (i also giggled a lot at sewkyo revengers, never apologise for a pun)

as for summer, it depends where you are when it comes to heat. If you live inland, then it's just really fucking dry. If you're located between the mountains and the sea its more humid (yay geography). Im located far enough from the sea for the temperatures to get ridiculous, but close enough that it's still really humid. idk. summer is just a sweaty experience, no matter where you are x_x I really love your description of that snowy silence, it must be so peaceful, yet also a bit eery? I so desperately wish to crunch some fresh snow one day >_<

god, can you imagine how tense the holiday season is at Bonten??? Koko has involuntarily bought every possible gift for you, and now they all just sit in his apartment, staring at him in their shiny wrapping and bows. because of course he can't give them to any one else, can he? and when Sanzu shows him that picture of you making biscuits for the holidays Koko wants to cry, because how many times did he wave off your baking in exchange for a meal at a high-class restaurant? and now he'd give up all the gourmet meals in the world just to receive your slightly skew baked treats :(

Now the Haitanis... Rindou hasn't done any shopping for the holidays, but Ran has... but no-one know who he's been shopping for, except that the gifts are eerily in line with Rindou's ex's interests... of course, you were Ran's friend long before you were Rindou's ex, and it makes sense for him to buy gifts for you, but why are they so romantic? Sanzu points out all of these things, in the middle of a meeting, in front of Rindou. Mikey, as dead inside as he is, makes Sanzu stand in the corner with his mouth duct-taped shut. (poor Mikey, now that we've seen that the only two moods are 'empty' and 'murder', maybe it's better that we have a third mood: 'dorayaki')

I don't have spotify, so I don't get judged by my music app lol, but I do have a good giggle at the yearly diagnoses of peoples' playlists. What are your most played songs? I'm always keen for new music :)

The pizza was great! it's the official recipe backed by the Italian government (LOL) so it can't really go too wrong. The first few attempts were.. interesting... but now that we have a proper little pizza oven and many trials under our belt, the pizza we make is pretty decent.

as for recipe freestyling... hm.. the most I've done is add in an adjacent flavour because I ddn't have the necessary original, but it didn't really go to plan. Baking needs the chemical reactions of certain ingredients to work, so when you start substituting, things get a little weird. My partner's brother's girlfriend (sister-in-law-in-theory?) tried the Coconut Biscuits Recipe and used a different flour and oh boy.. it did not go well.. needless to say, I will be teaching her in person this holiday season :))

Take your time with Inupi Baby, I still need to write the last part, which may take a while because I want to finally get Takeomi's pieces together. I grumble all the time about the lack of takeomi content, and then proceed not to make any of my own, pitiful!

I hope the rest of your week goes well (happy thanksgiving if that's part of your cultural context, if not, happy weekend >_<)

lots of love

🐰🌙

[tmtxtf]

Hi lovely ! 😘

That sounds really nice !!

Tyyy ! We did !

Omg Happy late Birthday !!! Hope you had the best birthday in the world <33 Did you do anything to celebrate ?

Mine is on May 7 ! So you're right . I am a summer baby !

I am ^^ Sometimes it's challenging , like when they don't do their homework , but overall my students are great and I enjoy teaching them ^-^ They're also very cute ! Like , one time my youngest student showed me her plushie collection haha . Aww ty sweetie <333

Well , I wouldn't say I've mastered French . Like , when I write essays in French , Google Translate is still my best friend sometimes haha . That is very true ! If I do go to Japan , I'd like to know at least the basics first ! Hbu ? Are there any languages you'd like to learn ? ^-^

Ooo !! So we have the same biases , as well as favourite Marvel movies . May I say , you have great taste ;) hehe

Yeah , I got that vibe too !! Samee 😭😭 I always remember how he said Plds gave him the option to be the eldest of their next boy group , but I'm so glad he chose to stay in Svt ! He seems rly close with his hyungs ^^

I completely agree !!! I don't know if I mentioned that my family came here from the Philippines ? But the Philippine Christmas tradition is to celebrate it on Christmas Eve / Noche Buena . We have a biggg Filipino meal , open presents , and play games ^^ And for New Year's , we mostly just eat food (It's not a Filipino celebration without food haha) Hbu ??

My hobbies are watching YouTube , writing , playing online games with my friends , and I recently started making gifs ! Hbu ?? ^-^

Ouu , nice choice :) I shall send it on the next ask ! Excited to see yours <3

Wishing you a great day , too ! Mwah <3

Byee~

hi dear k (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡

how have you been? I hope you had a great weekend, sflr! I kinda took some time to create your playlist + had a busy and tiring weekend but how was yours?

oh! thank you for your nice wishes ♡, actually I celebrated twice (at home with my family and at my grandparent's, it was really good^^). oh so I have to wait almost a whole year to congratulate you? ╥_╥ may I ask if u did something to celebrate it? how was your birthday cake?

awww, that's so sweet! i'm glad you're having a nice time, I can see how much you love being a teacher! and you only have one group? or you have different groups? for example, here in mexico during elementary school you only have one teacher (and they teach you all subjects minus english) and when you start middle school (and all next levels) that's when you get new a different teacher per subject, is it the same for canada?

oh no worries, google translate is everyone's best friend haha, I also agree on speaking the language of the country you're visiting (it makes the experience so much better) mmm, for me I would like to get a better level with any of the languages I have previously studied and then maybe try to learn korean? it would be quite nice to understand interviews / music lyrics without subs haha.

I keep on getting surprised on how many things we have in common (^_<). // exactly, I think he made the best choice ever, i can't imagine svt without chan ╥_╥.

oh you did not!! philippines is somehow kinda familiar with mexico and latin america!! I love how there are some spanish words included in filipino and the cities named in spanish, I'm not so familiar with ph history but I have always been interested in their country and culture :o, may I ask what are your traditional dishes for noche buena? and for new year's? ʕ •ᴥ• ʔ // well now that I think of me having traditions (I think I have none??), here in Mexico we have a lot (we kinda celebrate almost everything lol) but my favorite one should be independence day because of the food!! and decorations around the city, (christmas is also quite nice but my family never does something too special like other mex families, just a big dinner!). if you are interested in anything about my culture I'll gladly tell you everything I know ^^.

your hobbies are really cool! do you share your gifs here on tumblr? mine are photography (nothing pro, just with my phone), walk with my dog, listen to music, reading and doing legos, puzzles or sudokus. ٩(◕‿◕｡)۶

now, finally!! here's the playlist I created for you: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGc_tgiNe9oQx1Xyy_LH53ZpNYGq00eeZ&feature=share

I decided to create a playlist you think matches your anon’s personality, I ended up adding 17 songs (1 hour lenght) and I included the groups you also listen too / like (svt, exo, nct and wayv) (maybe you already have listened this songs?) I also included two skz's and ateez's songs (that reminds me of your personality and that I also happen to like a lot!) plus kyungsoo's latest song sang in spanish!! (he made his solo debut on july 26th, and this is the second time he sings in spanish, he's really good with spanish pronunciation!!). ♡ and one extra thing, I don't want to seem too pushy but once you listen to the playlist I made, would you mind sharing with me your thoughts on it? I hope you like it!!

until next time my deary! wishing you a great week, remember to stay safe (o˘◡˘o)♡
