#please don't take us seriously we're just idiots having fun

[readerconfused]

It must be very sad not to be part of the Brazilian PJO Fandom because we are doing a task force to hide the truth from new fans of the series so they can be surprised watching the last episode

[soulprompts]

an unexpected arrival. (A PROMPT LIST!)

so a lovely anonymous angel asked for a list of prompts relating to an unexpected pregnancy, and i made a list! i have two other lists over on my other blog that i'm gonna reblog over here, but there may be some slight overlap with these; however, unlike the other two lists, these focus exclusively on the unexpected part. DON'T ADD TO THIS LIST, DON'T CLAIM IT AS YOUR OWN! but do have a tonne of fun with them!

" so, remember last week, when i had the flu and i couldn't leave my house? turns out it wasn't the flu. i'm pregnant. "

" i'm telling you about this baby because you deserve to know. that's all. i don't expect anything from you. i don't need you to step up or whatever. i just thought you ought to know. "

" i'm sure you don't need to be reminded, but... getting pregnant wasn't exactly part of the whole life plan. "

" you're sure? i mean, you did the test properly? maybe it was a false positive. or, or maybe you didn't read the results right... "

" a baby... well. that certainly complicates things, doesn't it? "

" i don't even know if i want kids. "

" could you please just stop reminding me that this isn't part of the plan?! you think i don't know that?! we're having a baby, i'm terrified enough without you reminding me! "

" look. i'm/you're not the first person to get pregnant, and i/you won't be the last. we're gonna figure it out, alright? "

" my place isn't even close to being big enough for a baby... they need so much stuff. cribs, prams, diaper stations... and my neighbors complain enough as it is, they'll evict me if i have a screaming baby as well... "

" hey... why don't you move in with me? i've got plenty of space, and my walls are thick, so the baby could scream as loud as they want. you could stay as long as you like. "

" should... we get married? i mean, that's what you do, isn't it? when someone's having a baby? "

" okay, we're not getting married. i mean, i appreciate the gesture, but... there's plenty of single parents out there. what's one more, right? "

" god... we are so stupid. i mean, seriously! any idiot knows that condoms aren't 100% effective! if we're dumb enough to forget that, how are we meant to look after a baby?! "

" you... you're kidding, right? this is a joke? it's a fake pregnancy test, some weird, slightly out of touch belated april fool's prank? "

" it's honestly insane that we didn't figure it out sooner... i mean, those were some wild cravings, right? "

" when you say late... do you mean like, a few days? or are we talking... months? "

" no, no, this... it changes everything. EVERYTHING. i... i don't know if i'm ready for this, i don't think i'm parent material, i... "

" hey. you're not alone. you got that? it takes a village, right? i'm gonna help you every step of the way. we all will. this kid, if you choose to go through with it... they'd be okay. "

" you know i support you. whatever choice you end up making. i will always be by your side. okay? "

" if this is some weird idea of a joke, i have to tell you, it's not funny. i mean, you're having a baby AND i'm somehow the dad? a little much, no? "

" no, i want to step up. it took two of us to make this baby, and i want to make sure you know that, if you go ahead with this, there's gonna be two of us to raise them, too. "

" the father doesn't believe that the baby is his. "

" okay. so screw the father. i'm going to be here to help you. okay? we'll parent this kid so well, they'll never want to know who their real dad is. "

" so... you wanna tell me who the father is? "

" the surprise baby is actually not just one baby. we're having twins/triplets/etc. "

" hey, hey... don't worry, okay? it's alright. it's all going to be okay. condoms break, yeah? it's no biggie... "

" what do you mean, you think?! haven't you taken a pregnancy test yet? "

" that's a lot of pregnancy books you got there... got something you want to tell me? "

" have you told the father yet? "

" i guess, seeing how you rushed over here so fast to tell me the news, that you think the baby is mine? "

" look, we both made plans, right? and obviously shit happens, but... a baby is a pretty massive deal. "

" how many other people have you told about the pregnancy? "

" what do you want to do? "

Please stop, I beg y'all.

Aaaaarrghhhhh....

I've been seriously considering blocking some Anons, or closing my inbox to Anon asks. I don't like doing that to turtles, but I'm getting past frustrated and feeling drastic about it. A huge percentage of asks I've been getting are from turtles who do not curate their online experience and who constantly bring Twitter drama and anti messages to my doorstep and I'm tired of saying the same things over and over again.

I can't believe the volume of asks I've gotten about this stupid F'n Douban page, which tells me 100% that a decent number of you are not staying in your own lane!! The only people talking about this (fake BS) are antis!! Stay out of solo hashtags on Twitter!! Yes, that includes GG and DD's individual names. BLOCK AND IGNORE.

If you can't curate your online experience, that's your problem. Don't make it mine, or anyone else's on Tumblr.

You know what bugs me the most, is that some of you seem to put a lot more weight to what those antis who are trying to hurt you say than you do to anything me or @accio-victuuri or any of the other turtles who try to help you are saying. Why do you bother asking any of us anything if you're going to ignore the answer?

Look, antis are liars. I've said this a thousand times.

Douban is a USER EDITED site. Don't let yourself be trolled by haters. Stop buying into their narrative. They're trying to spin a negative story for you and you're getting sucked into it, and it's so frustrating.

If people keep writing me about stuff like this I'm going to close my inbox, or else take my own advice and use the block button. Stop hand-wringing about what idiots are saying on Twitter, or if you're going to do it, please don't do it in my inbox.

Focus on GG and DD and their works. Isn't that what we're all here for? Fandom should be fun!

Whatever you focus on, that's what your experience will be. Just remember that. Choose wisely.

For the next couple of weeks no one is allowed to send me negative asks. If you have any happy, positive questions related directly to GG and DD or their works, please feel free to send them in.

Hey! Before I begin this thread, I just wanna say, DON'T HARRASS ANYBODY. If you find the original post about what this is, then don't harass them or send them threats. They just have a bad take, that's all. Don't look for them, don't engage, just ignore their ass.

Trigger warning for Transphobia, and general dumbass takes ahead. This is gonna be a long one, so strap in! ^w^

So there's this assinine thread that is spreading around in the Sonic Headcannons tag, and I'm here to ratio it, and debunk it. Because it's been REALLY on my nerves, and I wanna talk about it in a longer format. Again, don't look for this person. And if you find them, don't harass them. That's not cool, and I blurred their name for a reason. Anyways, let's begin! In this first screencap I took, they talk about Sonic not being Trans because it doesn't fit with his character

Now me personally, I don't see Sonic as Trans. But I do see him as Demisexual and Demiromantic as two parts of my headcannon for him. So I'm gonna tell you that it's NOT THAT DEEP. Sonic can still be Trans or Cis, and still have the same personality. It's almost like Trans people are human beings, who have personalities outside of being Transgender! Who would've thought! What a crazy concept!😱 Which by the way, his personality changes in many interactions, look at Sonic Prime, or Sonic Boom for example. In Sonic Prime he acts way more goofy, and in Sonic Boom he's more of a sassy dork. But they still like the same things as far as we're aware. Do you know what would change about them and their personalities if they were Trans? If you said absolutely nothing, congratulations, you're not a braindead idiot! >w< Sonic can still run fast, be cocky, eat hot chili dogs and lie, as well as being Transgender! Because being Trans changes nothing about a person, especially not a FICTIONAL CARTOON HEDGEHOG.😱😱

Also Sonic is a fictional character, he's not even from nature itself, and it's fine if he were to change his gender. Which by the way, MOST TRANS HEADCANNONS MAKE HIM FTM, WHICH CHANGES NOTHING ABOUT HIS PYSICAL APPERENCE OTHER THAN TOP SURGERY SCARS. Side note about this first part, whoever actually uses "Woke Propaganda" in a non ironic way, I'm not gonna take you seriously. >:3

This next part of this weird take talks about how Trans Sonic is not representation, and that I can call them a transphobe all I want. So I will! Okay Transphobe, and I will fight you.🥰

Sometimes people like to just put headcannon things onto characters they kin, or they genuinely have reasons for thinking Sonic is Trans. Either way, Sonic and someone's headcannon of Sonic aren't the same! Someone drawing cute little top surgery scars on Sonic isn't going to change the Sonic Brand. It's not cannon, and Sonic being Trans is a headcannon for a reason. It's just a silly thing that lots of people agree with, and it literally harms nobody that some people draw Sonic as Transgender. People can still love Sonic the character, and still draw him as Trans.

They aren't doing a disservice to the franchise by making him Trans, people are just having fun. You should try that sometime! It's better than spewing hateful opinions, and unironically using the word "Wokies" to refer to anybody who DARES to draw Sonic with two little lines on his chest. By the way, bellow is what they're SO PRESSED ABOUT!😱 Isn't that just the scariest thing you've ever seen!? Just two little lines on a character's chest area! Woah! I'm never gonna be able to sleep again!/silly Grow up.

(I don't know who the original artist is, if ya'll know, please tell me!)

Last screenshot I promise, but I'm not sharing their image they included with their lovely post.

Uhh, Trans teenagers exist in real life. Sure a lot of them don't get surgery, but that's the beauty of FICTION. Also why do you care so much that if he is a Teenager and Transgender? That seems a little gross to me. Trans people are able to make their own decisions, and can choose to, or to not get surgery. I'm not Trans myself, and I think that people should wait until they're older to get surgery. But I'm not going to throw up in disgust because someone made a choice for themselves. And it's really weird that you're pressed over a fictional teenager with top surgery scars being drawn on them.😒

People can draw their favorite characters as Trans to kin them, or just because they feel like it. In either scenario, it's a drawing. A fictional drawing that was made for fun. And what exactly are you "helping" by saying this take? Just exposing yourself for being scared of little lines on Sonic's chest? What changes about the video, or drawing, or media you consume because Sonic is drawn with, or without top surgery scars? Again, ABSOLOUTELY NOTHING!🥰🥰 Unless you're reading or watching a comic about Sonic's journey with being Transgender, which is a fanmade thing. Then nothing about certain videos or fan content changes in the slightest. And I think it's so strange that you're hurt enough by Trans Sonic, that you had to say it was the worst headcannon BY FAR. What about those headcannons that Sonic is in love with Tails, or where he's a stalker, or a creep? I guess those aren't nearly as bad as a Trans person existing according to this lovely individual. And I guess a Trans person is the worst thing he can be. (GROSS TAKE)

Fuck off, get a hobby, cope, L+Ratio.😒 Also Trans rights are human rights, and all my Trans fans are valid! And they're allowed to headcannon whatever character as Transgender, since they aren't hurting anybody by doing it! ^w^

Thanks for reading all of this if you did. Again don't look for this person, and don't harass them! I just had to get this off my chest as someone who's been harassed for my own Sonic LGBTQ+ headcannons before. Continue doing your headcannons, as long as you aren't being mean about them. And I hope you... enjoyed this post I guess? XD I hope I did well debunking this weirdo. I'll be sharing my own headcannons, as well as their headcannon designs over here hopefully sometime soon.

Trans rights are human rights! And have a wonderful day everyone, peace out! ^w^

Boo! Ahhh so scary!/silly

Timely questions- 141(and s'more characters)

Ghost is a time freak, he is always at the place he said he would be at the exact time he said he would arrive. This time it was different.

R/n: its 09:01, Ghost is officially late for the first time ever.

They look around the room,

R/n: all right let's do this, who's got theories?

Gaz: uh..alarm didn't go off

R/n: All three alarms? all with battery back-ups? c'mon who wants to take this seriously?

König: oh, he was taken in his sleep!

R/n: thats what im talking about, super dark König, but way more plausible than the sarge's idiotic alarm clock theory.

Soap: I bet he tucked himself into bed too tight and got stuck

Roach: mm, maybe he fell into another dimension where he is interesting

Price walks in: its 09, why is no one working?

R/n: Ghost is a few minutes late, and we're all trying to guess why

Price: I'd like to play,

He started walking around.

Price: I say he is in line at the bank.......this is fun

R/n: it is fun, but you're all wrong

Roach looks surprised and sad reader dismissed his answer

R/n: he clearly slipped through a subway grate and is having terrible sex with a mole man/woman (idk...just please don't god damn cancel me...I see the threats in my inbox)!

Ghost walks in, clearly rushing as he walks up to the team.

R/n: there he is! Ghost, where have you been, we've been worried sick, do you care to explain yourself?!

Ghost: I'm just 70 seconds late, its not a big deal, don't worry about it

Price: lieutenant you will tell us, and you will tell us now!

Ghost: there way a problem at the bank

Price, clearly proud of himself in dad mode: hot damn!

What are your thoughts on TotK so far?

[spoiler alert obviously don't keep reading if you don't want this]

-Gloom hands are the absolute best I love them so much never stop being horrible

-Gleeoks are nice. good to see them again. like the new look.

-Admittedly not completely wild about the fuse system but Kohga attacks you with a car and it's fun to watch people build all the looney tunes contraptions people make

-Can't believe they finally dropped Zelda's fursona only to make it a dimension of torment for her. I love the light dragon but can't Zelda have a dragon break rather than a dragon breakdown.

-In seriousness with the fake Zelda running around it could be an interesting twist if everyone believes the light dragon is hostile because it keeps randomly dive-bombing people while a Zelda who is lucid but unable to communicate is trying to chase people away from her impostor.

-Related to a prior point I like to think the Koroks kind of enjoy being yeeted. they're prankster forest spirits. this has to be at least a little bit fun.

-I'm not keen on Kilton in the first place and I don't think we needed Kilton 2: Worse Kilton. I don't like how every NPC in TLOZ that doesn't look completely conventionally attractive is increasingly signaled as either an evil overlord or a funny idiot you shouldn't respect or take seriously. I do not want to watch these clowns dance for me as a reminder to not take any sort of interest in monsters seriously. This is a vibes based thing and is not limited to the designs. I feel like you could keep those designs as-is and salvage the vibes but I'm not quite sure how.

-Narratively, Tears of the Kingdom feels suffused with a specific kind of old man sadness that he is No Longer Hip With The Kids (and this is not gender-specific but the predominant gender of the mouthpieces it is given ingame must be noted) without making any concessions to what The Kids actually care about so Rauru is here because they heard you didn't like Rhoam so now there's a super cool hip with-it dad who never yells at Zelda but also just like Rhoam his actions amount to failing her at a critical moment, leaving her alone to suffer, and then coming back as a ghost to implicitly give Link Daddy's Blessing to marry Zelda.

I want to like Rauru way more than I do because the Zonai's designs are fantastic, but I feel like the depiction of these "Sky Gods" and their role in history ends up patronizing the hell out of both the Zonai and everybody else, but especially the non-hyrulean vassal states where the Zonai are made out to be needless fairy godmothers when they have all the hallmarks of a dying people 10,000 years ago, we can only imagine Rauru's legacy was whitewashed to hell and back considering how central Hyrule positions its non-Hylian allies, But Then Also the Zonai are so beautiful and smart they created everything with their inherent superiority and if the gerudo, zora, gorons, or rito have any meaningful cultural legacy no they didn't the Zonai did this for/with them.

Also can we please not physically put the arm of the king with its power to command things and space on Link's body. This feels like a twofer desecrating Rauru even further by disembodying him down to only the useful part of him and also literally making Link just a bodily platform for the King's Authority. no we're not gonna empower YOUR hand we're gonna hack it off while you're unresponsive to make room for the real kingly authority. We've been doing this since Wind Waker and the quiet part feels like it's getting louder.

-I love Gloom I love the Depths. on the one hand yes they could afford to be a little more Actual Cave Like but as it is it kind of sends the vibe of like, a prior surface that sunk downward into the earth. The idea of moving up as well as down, this sort of heaven-and-hell motifs, are kinda great.

-As afraid as I was of this version of Ganondorf being made out to be a puppet/pawn/disciple of Demise I was actually very, very pleased to see the man just straight up eat Demise's lunch in every conceivable way. Even his demon king form which feels the closest to aping Demise replaces the primal pyroclast vibes with that saturated blood color. Demise feels like a primal titan- Ganondorf feels like a Persephone stained with the fruits of the underworld. I love his designs I love his vibes I love what they did with him. This is SUCH a good return to 'letting Ganondorf be a person rather than a screaming rage cloud'.

Literally the only thing I don't like is I think his tiny dinky oni horns are silly and he didn't need them. that's it.

-I mentioned Kohga but I'm so glad Kohga just decided that since he fell down a hole he Lives There Now.

-the like likes are excellent. If you are sensing a pattern here it's that I'm very fond of the creature design. You begin to see why I'm frustrated with Kilton and Kilton 2: Worse Kilton. Just let me hang out with the horriblins. have you seen them.

-Ok I don't really like that they had a "here, idiot, this is how you make a functional weapon" angle to giving Conspicuously Weapon Shaped horns on all the main monsters so you can just harvest them to make spears or hammers or such. This is part of the part of Fuse I'm not keen on.

-did we really need zonai device gachapons. they were not being at all subtle about how toyetic this new mechanic was, to the point of it feeling kinda immersion breaking. how seriously are we supposed to take this. Zelda is over there doing the anime fisheye stare. This is the last surviving legacy of a dead people. We are capable of recreating the Guardian Massacre from BOTW onto random blins now. But whee. Car go brrrr.

-TLOZ Please Stop Adding Gimmick Robot Characters That Obviously Have Feelings But Are Also Slavishly Bound To A Purpose Long After It's Useful To Anyone And Were Made That Way By Heroic Guys We Are Supposed To Root For And This Isn't Framed As A Problem, and other songs by Fall Out Boy,

-Yona is a good character and I like her, Sidon is allowed to be bisexual

-this isn't unique to TOTK or originating there but I have a little petty rage in my heart that goron rock food is just... comedy cartoon meat but made of rocks. I hate it. expose us to an entirely alien concept of cuisine. Make me yearn to eat bismuth knowing my human limitations would fail me. I was thinking about this the entire Marbled Rock Roast plot.

WHAT IS THERE TO ROAST

IT'S ROCKS

HEAT CANNOT ALTER THE PROPERTIES OF ROCKS WITHOUT EITHER MELTING THEM OR TURNING THEM INTO A WHOLE DIFFERENT ROCK

-I think Evermeans are good and we should live in fear of resource-useful setpieces more often. there should be hostile jar mimics next. Wind Waker had enemies popping out of jars but also you could get the drop on them by breaking the jar like normal, and that fails the mimic test of "am I now afraid to perform Ordinary Actions in places I'm not sure are safe"

TW: Suicide mention, KOSA, venting and ranting.

I'm going to scream. I swear to fucking god.

Firstly, I find out about KOSA this morning and nearly went insane. Whoever thought about this goddamn project is wrong on so many levels. I hope they don't pass the bill this year. Actually, I hope this project gets thrown in the fiery dump where it belongs and never gets brought up again. I nearly lost it, and if it happens I'm gonna be miserable and in so much trouble.

The "genius" who came up with KOSA and the fuckers who actually support this pathetic idea that came from the pits of hell are genuinely insane and deserve to burn. I don't care if I sound rude, KOSA and the idiot who made it deserve all my massive hatred, anger and death threats. Because why are you taking away the only fucking thing I have in this world to cope with? Why are you taking away my privacy and my rights? Why are you taking away my chance to escape from the real world for a brief moment, why is my chance to talk to my friends being taken away?? If you really want to "represent" us, then give us back our freedom and LISTEN TO US. FOR FUCKS SAKE.

Clearly this wasn't put into much thought at all and you are toying around with our mental health, because the consequences for KOSA are going to be fatal. Not only are the kids in danger from their information being leaked to their parents (parents nowadays are terrible and abusive in general, and the internet is LITERALLY OUR SAFE SPACE), but this is going to increase suicide numbers. And if I don't keep my shit together I might end up joining that cursed number too, maybe you'll change your mind then. Nah because this is the only way you adults are ever gonna learn your goddamn mistakes! Because you never listen to us kids, you're always "oh-so superior and all-knowing and basically an adult"

This project will cause a lot of damage to the kids' mental health and you're basically going to witness a high decrease of the population. Ain't no way most of us are going to survive this if the bill gets passed. Ever thought about that??

I'm genuinely too upset about this. The thought of never fucking having privacy or talking to my friends again (WHILE HAVING IN MIND A FEW OF THEM ARE FUCKING SUICIDIAL AND I TALK THEM OUT OF IT) is tormenting enough.

Please, for the love of god, keep spreading awareness about this terrible issue. Do anything please let's just never let this happen.

Secondly, I am genuinely upset with Tumblr's new desktop page design or whatever. It gives me claustrophobia, it isn't spacious and neat anymore, instead it's a mess.

What does the Tumblr staff try to accomplish with this pathetic design? Because it's so hilarious./neg

Everybody hates it. There's no way they're gonna keep this up for long, stop taking our comfort space and turning it into something pathetic and unusable. Seriously. Stop giving us more stress when we're just trying to enjoy our own day and casually check the notifications and have fun talking to friends.

This new design? I hate it. It's terrible for my eyesight and it makes me want to quit because I swear to god, that's how you make me feel everytime pathetic, unnecessary changes are made. This isn't even Tumblr anymore, dear staff. You're slowly ruining it, you're ruining my home. Tumblr always was everybody's home, stop turning it into Twitter 2.0. Please. Respect the users' wishes and let this app be the way it used to be. People love it the way it is, get rid of this new design and bring back the old and neat desktop page design.

Yoichi and Shigehira Sequel Cute moments - Part 1

Shigehira: "I couldn't have done it if Yoichi-san hadn't supported me! He deserves all the credit, not me!"

Yoichi: "Stop whining and accept people's compliments sometimes! It wouldn't hurt! That's why you're such a baby!"

Shigehira: "WHO ARE YOU CALLING A BABY!?"

Yoshino and the soldiers: *sigh*

???: "YOSH! It's time to celebrate!"

Shigehira, Yoichi and all the soldiers: "What the!?"

Yoshino: *blushing*

Morinaga (Half-naked): "The 4 Brawny Men will celebrate your victory!"

Morinaga (Half-naked): "I---Adachi Morinaga!"

Benkei (Half-naked): "I---Mushashibo Benkei."

Ibuki (Half-naked): "I don't even know why I am here but these two forced me to take off my clothes so yeah....I----Shuten Doji Ibuki."

Kurama (Half-naked): "I---the King Of All Brawny Men, Kurama."

Ibuki(Half-naked): "Don't add unnecessary titles."

Yoichi: "What's going on here? Why are you four half-naked?"

Shigehira: "What is this 4 Brawny Men?"

Benkei: "I took off my clothes to wipe my sweat and then I saw Morinaga doing the same thing, next to me."

Morinaga: "I thought it was fate and also asked Kurama and Ibuki to join us."

Yoshino (blushing): "That doesn't explain anything...."

Kurama: "Stupid woman."

Ibuki: "Don't overthink. Just feel it."

(F-F-Feel....?)

Yoichi: "Yes yes. That's enough, you'll give her a nosebleed. Don't take them too seriously, Yoshino."

Yoichi: "Whatever it is, I can't believe that Benkei, who is always serious, would take part in something like this."

Benkei: "This will benefit the relationship between the three forces. Also...."

Benkei: "You lazy bastard. You always skip meetings and trainings to sleep. It's time I get my revenge on you."

Yoichi: "Hey! Don't take advantage of this opportunity to take out your daily grudges."

Both Morinaga-san and Benkei approached Shigehira-kun and Yoichi-san.

Both Shigehira-kun and Yoichi-san awkwardly stepped back.

Morinaga: "It's time for World's First Ever Brawny Palanquin!"

Morinaga-san and Benkei picked up both Shigehira-kun and Yoichi-san.

Morinaga: "Come on, Ibuki. Kurama. Let's make the Brawny Palanquin together!"

Ibuki: "Why do I have to do so much physical labor?"

Kurama: "Why must I carry someone one other than Yoshitsune?"

(As long as it's Yoshitsune-sama, he's fine, huh?)

Benkei: "We're straight going to the banquet hall."

Morinaga: "We all decided to prepare a victory feast for you two, as one big happy family."

Morinaga: "I have also prepared sake from the Shogunate's very own brewery."

Kurama: "Sake? Why didn't say that first?"

Ibuki: "The Shogunate's own brewery, huh? Not bad, not bad."

Both Ibuki and Kurama joined to carry Yoichi-san and Shigehira-kun.

Kurama: "Haa...this is too slow."

Kurama, in annoyance, spreads his wings.

Shigehira: "Ah! I'm gonna fall!"

Benkei: "You idiot! Don't fly on your own."

Kurama: "I can't keep up with your movements like insects crawling on the ground."

Yoichi: "Woah! If you fly from one side, the whole palanquin thing will slant on one side, and we will fall on top of each other."

Morinaga: "That's okay. Yoichi and Shigehira can support each other!"

Ibuki: "Such a beautiful way to help each other out, isn't it?"

Shigehira and Yoichi: *awkward*

The two men, who were about to fall off, hugged each other awkwardly.

At the same time...

Tamamo (Confused): "I brought the sake you asked for and.....what the hell is going on over there?"

Sueharu (Faceplams): "Probably one of their most embarrassing nightmares coming to live."

Along with Tamamo and Sueharu, the others were also standing besides them.

Yoshitsune (expressionless): ".......That looks fun."

Kagetoki (Serious face): "I see that you too have unique taste. What about you?"

Akihito ((◕‿◕)): "I'd rather ride in a regular palanquin."

Yasuchika (Very serious): "Of course! Akihito-sama will not be carried on such a barbaric-looking palanquin."

Yoritomo (⌒‿⌒): "Do whatever you want and however you want, but please bring those two to the banquet as soon as possible."

All the soldiers: " YES!!!"

Both Shigehira-kun and Yoichi-san gave up resisting and were finally put down in the banquet hall.

[butchhansolo]

Ok well now you've got me interested in your thoughts on crosshair, please go off on one I'll gladly read it

oh GOD where to even start

well first of all let me just put it on the table that i don't like the Crosshair Still Has His Inhibitor Chip Through To Season 2! camp like at all. sorry. i'm taking this way more seriously than i should but that's kind of the fun of it for me so here goes -- this theory does 2 things that i dislike about blorbo fandom-/woob-ification, for me: 1) his agency and flaws are wiped away in favour of crosshair being the universe's favourite punching bag pathetic little meow meow who everything bad happens to for no good reason just because they want to be mean to him through the deus ex It's Not His Fault Actually! mind control, granting him total absolution from, and 2) it completely ignores the narrative of the overall story which requires crosshair to have agency in his own decisions or else it all falls apart. there would be no weight to his poor decisions in the latter half of s1 and no weight to the batch letting him choose to stay with the empire. cody literally outlines the point of crosshair's narrative: "We make our own decisions. Our own choices. And we have to live with them too." -- the point is making bad choices and living with it and being better, the point is that he makes mistakes and is irrational and angry and so so heartbreakingly human, and as all humans do, just as he has a say in his misdeeds, he also has a say in choosing to be a better person than he was before.

having his chip be the influence causing him to do the idiotic shit he does is literally a detriment to his character at the point we're at now -- it makes him less interesting in favour of turning him into a Nothing sob story, and it's just a disservice to his character. even if s3 pulls it out of the bag as an A-Ha, Gotcha! where he does have his chip in, all that'll do is sink tbb to an F tier show for me because literally why. what's the point anymore.

crosshair is interesting/a favourite for me specifically because of how raw and human he is. he hates that his brothers left him behind enough to choose to side with the empire to spite them, but he still loves them so he keeps them safe from the empire despite it. he loves his brothers, he's a piece of shit, he protects those he's close to but that circle is comically small and he fails to recognize who it is that are in the same boat as him and who they should be facing as a common enemy (the regs and the empire, respectively) until it's shoved in his face (yaaaay character development). and he thinks he's special and talented and skilled enough to outpace the fact that he's a clone, he's naive enough to believe that the empire will ever see him as more than canon fodder just as long as he's useful, just as long as he's more useful than all the other clones, just as long as he's a good soldier, and permit me to connect this to my own experiences with being a minority but this in particular resonated because like. the people who hate me aren't ever going to see past what i was born as, no matter how much i put myself in a nice box and make myself palatable. and putting down others who don't do the same only harms the people who are my family. it's a worthy lesson to learn, and it has a lot of potential in crosshair's story, if they develop it further than the episodes we got with cody and mayday (doubtful given how kinda dogshit they are at committing time to these things but we'll see).

i guess in the end crosshair is compelling to me as a character who is all about growth. making bad decisions, choosing to be better, feeling and loving and caring too much or not enough and learning and growing and just being. human

content warnings: mention of poison

Part of FFxivWrite 2023

------

The prompt for Day 14 is 'clear'! I had planned on this story going in a different direction, but it was one of those times where the characters decided "you know what? we're going to do something else and you're just along for the ride", LOL.

Granted, I love when stories do that, so I hope you enjoy!

"Here, Gale, take this."

Gemna hands the blue-haired Viera a small vial of clear liquid, which he holds up to his eyes with a frown. "Is this the poison?"

"Yes. Be very careful with it, though, it's highly potent." Gemna stares at him until he puts the vial down before continuing. "If you get this on your skin you can end up hurting yourself--or worse. You only need a small amount in a drink but the effects will happen relatively quickly, so make sure not to stick around after you're sure the target drank it."

"I'll be careful Gemna, promise." Gale puts the vial in a leather sack before storing it in his pocket, then looks up to Gemna with a smirk. "Have you thought about poisoning us?"

"Gods, not a day goes by without me wanting to kill you boys." Gemna chuckles, but the look on Gale's face seems serious.

"Why haven't you, then?"

"Huh?" Gemna looks at Gale, shocked that he would even ask.

"I appreciate that you haven't, as I like living, but… why haven't you?" Gale's face is thoughtful as he continues. "You have had ample opportunity to do so."

Gemna continues to stare at Gale for what feels like an eternity, before heaving a heavy sigh. "Gale… you are an idiot."

"I--what? Why?" Gale turns a confused gaze at Gemna, which she chuckles at.

"I was joking. I'd expect Laurent to take me seriously but not you. Goodness." The Bangaa sits on a bar stool, and gestures to the stool next to her for Gale to sit down. When he does, she smiles at him for a moment while the Viera squirms slightly in the silence. Eventually, Gemna continues.

"Don't get me wrong, you boys drive me insane. It's never seen anyone worse with the customers than Laurent, and he'll burn the place down if he so much as looks at an oven the wrong way. And you… You're obnoxious. And paranoid. And a smartarse. And--"

"Alright, Gemna, I get it."

Gemna huffs at the interruption, but her smile doesn't fade. "It doesn't matter if you both get on my nerves, you're family. I'd never want to hurt you two, even if you deserve a smack upside the head from time to time."

Gale seems lost in thought. "A family?"

"Oh please, didn't you have a family in the jungle?"

"No. Not like the families in Rabanastre, at least. The village raised the children, and we didn't know who our parents were."

Gemna frowns. "That's… strange. But that doesn't matter, because I'm your family now!" The Bangaa leans over to pat Gale on the head, which prompts him to cross his arms and fold his ears down in annoyance. "I want you two to stay safe, and be happy. So remember what I said about the poison, okay?"

"I will, Gemna." Gale pats the pocket the vial is in lightly, and grins at Gemna. "Thank you. For being my family. Our family."

"Sure, sure." Gemna waves off Gale, looking slightly embarrassed. "So when are you two going to grow the family?"

"What are you talking about, Gemna?"

The bartender smirks at him. "When will there be a little Viera hellion running around the bar? I bet he'd have your eyes."

"What… I--That--" Gale's face turns a deep red. "That's not… possible--physically…and I'd hope they'd have Laurent's eyes--wait--"

Gemna gives Gale a pointed look. "Oh, is that so?"

"I-I need to go now. Job and all that." The Viera quickly heads to the exit while Gemna hides a snicker. "I'll let you know when it's done…" Gales walks out before the Bangaa can respond.

"It's too much fun to tease them." She reaches over the bar and grabs some ingredients to fix herself a drink. "I think they'd make for great parents, though…"

MARBLE HORNETS FANFIC - KEEP YOU WORKING, TRY TO SURVIVE.

Part 1

(Not focusing entirely on Tim and others)

English is not my first language so please bear this in mind.

- Surely it's a good idea for us to be here? My parents said that no one ventures into this forest at night," the blonde sitting closest to the small bonfire that had been lit by her friends, who also came up with the idea of coming there, said anxiously.

The boy with black curly hair looked at her from above his bottle of high-alcohol drink and raised his eyebrows in a gesture of disbelief.

- Do you really believe that anything is dangerous here? The only thing I have encountered here in my entire life is squirrels taking your food when you are careless. - He replied with a short laugh, to which the girl only scowled more in her seat.

- I'm not saying that something will attack us here, it's just that such places are dangerous after dark because of the people themselves. We can always meet some drunkard or psychopath," she tried to further defend her opinion, but this time their entire group of eight looked at her and laughed. Her friend Daphne clung to her side, poisoning all the fresh air around with the stench of alcohol and cigarettes, Blair covered her nose with her hair, wanting to politely tell the girl that the smell bothered her, but she didn't give a damn and started her drunken argument.

- You know, Blair? You don't have to be afraid of anything, as we are beside you! We will defend you if something happens! Avery didn't mean to be mean, he's just stupid! - She said, resting her head on the blonde's shoulder, so that sometimes she would not fall on the dirty ground.

The girl didn't even pay attention to what that one was saying anymore, she knew that she was barely clinging to her consciousness and should already go home, and somehow it didn't look like their group wanted to go back, so everything falls on her again. As always.

- Avery, Travis can you help me take Daphne to the car? I'll drive her home," she said, holding the barely conscious woman so she wouldn't fall when getting up from the pieces of wood serving as seats.

- Sorry, we're busy, we're about to start our game! - replied Travis, waving some silly cards in front of her face.

- You can handle it Blair, we still have to have fun, after all, it's the last day of summer! - Shouted Meredith, immediately, snatching the cards from Travis' hand.

Of course. Drinking was more important than helping, what did she even expect?

- Fuck you all," she whispered, and began to drag the girl alone to the car, which was a few minutes away from where they currently were.

As soon as they started walking away from the bonfire, as well as the people, Blair started cursing everything and everyone. She felt angry at herself for agreeing to this in the first place, as well as Rome for bringing alcohol, Ezra for choosing such a stupid place, Meredith for agreeing to anything those idiots wanted and Doutzel for making her lie in front of her parents about their outing.

The whole group had changed for the worse over the vacations, and Blair seriously had to reconsider whether it was worth it to hang out with them. Now everything was based on alcohol, it wasn't the same as it used to be.

- I think I'm going to throw up," Daphne said suddenly, holding her friend tighter and stopping them in the middle of nowhere.

The taller girl wanted to stay calm and not yell at the shorter one, but really standing in the dark forest, where you don't even know if they were taking the right path, was not a good idea.

- Can't you wait until we get to the car! - She imploringly asked, not knowing whether to pull the girl closer and start walking faster or just let her throw up here.

She chose the second option, because, however, the visualization of cleaning the new car was not so encouraging.

Daphne finished, crouching by the bushes with her friend behind her rubbing her back. All around them was darkness and silence despite the fact that they could still hear their friends talking or laughing loudly.

This would not have worried the girl, if not for the fact that her friend raised her head and asked in a weak voice

- Why is Avery standing there in the bushes looking at us? This asshole could help us, at least-.

And as hard as she tried not to look in that direction, when she did, she didn't see anyone but a piece of paper attached to a tree next to the aforementioned bushes.

- There's no one there Daphne, let's go now. - She muttered, feeling fear flowing through her. A squirrel would rather not, she thought.

Just as a squirrel rather not have caused Ezra's scream, which spread throughout the forest, and which only made her hug the girl tighter to herself and start running, terrified, to the forest exit.

Watch "Retraktor. A Tribute to TRON: LEGACY #tron #disneyplus #daftpunk" on YouTube

We're going to open a secret club and we know about the franchise they don't have much money and the actors and actresses are starving something to do so I'm going to take him over I'm going to invite them and the other idiots will show up I'm going to take them in and show them that they're wrong and they're idiots by the way and they won't let these idiots at all and we want them to and Mac wants them to the Japanese want them to all the Chinese it's ridiculous they're a bunch of farts who the hell wants to live this life with so dangerous and just be a fart and someone's doing it all his life now these idiots want to do that this is not all my life I was doing secret work thank you though but look like I was farting and I wasn't really but a lot of times when I was younger I was just living the life of a fart that's true too but I had to learn so you're very old and had to watch and bear me going through that now I have to sit here and watch these enemies go through it but you're educating me let me take it back but he did say it but he said it differently I spend a little a lot of time farting but they were making me and it's a fight and even we kind of lose track of him he's sitting there fighting for us I'll tell you what he knows he came out swinging and it's risking his life I saw him do it and I have to report this that we're kind of missing the ball in the picture and now his wife is happy what are you saying is we're going to take the bull by the horns on this one and he keeps doing it with every project, seriously though he wants to open one in China with his father and mother and with Hera's father and mother and with father and mother in China of China. This is open to one small one in la first and then Japan and while we're doing it we're getting the one ready in China and they agreed it's appropriate and we're honoring he says you're honoring me by saying it and it's true because we don't want to get in trouble with Japan or even too much with these people so he sees what you're saying this is a matter of class it's a matter of who's in charge right now and what they can actually do so he's following it doesn't like it but he's doing it too he says we're going to have a big one and he knows what he means they'll be a bar up front a dance floor out front or even a couple bars in a couple dance floors or a few and it's all techno all electric and it's the blue it's the orange and the drinks are the blue and the orange and even red and multicolored drinks like lava lamps and they'll be all sorts of cool things like vending machines where you can pay for your own drink and really the bartenders don't have any power over limiting how many but the machine will probably tell you you've had four drinks in one half hour please pace yourself if you need a ride and it'll say that while they're getting it and I'll tell you how I can get a ride I'm going to ask you if you need a ride do you have cash or credit card and I can call one for you at a specific time and leave your name and all sudden people are happy cuz that's what it's like when you have your stuff together and these machines will be off a little bit and they have a real bar but this will be off in a corridor with a different sound so you can hear and he wants the entrance to be that tube one that was at that bar cuz he had a lot of fun going through that tube and it's reflective and it lights and it felt it was going to turn on but it's flat and really a lot of people made a big deal out of it and it was a lot of fun it's going to be continuous like that cuz really they think you have to go through a tunnel to get to the light cycle facility and they started looking for it cuz they heard about it and they couldn't find it they went nuts and started bothering George and everybody else. Eventually someone found it and it was Jeff Bridges and it was recent and it was last year and it was built by ghwb and his grandson suggest you make a fake one so he made a real one that's how it started and that's what it's like in his clan it's craziness.

We're going to build these three bars and they're going to be electro and techno very high ceilings almost without limit with huge screens and giant ones okay and it's going to have events like electro events broadcast and superbike races and Indy races and we'll try to get better going and that's what the back room is for and behind the back room are the light cycles of Hera and Zeus and our company where the chair people of this new illicit light cycle company in the United States. We're going to call them Tron bikes and there will be trikes rev trikes quads cars and mostly light cycles of all different kinds even little teeny ones which would be inexorably fast for their size and 35 mph for kids and it's like a toy in real life and slightweight frame which out of aluminum real light plastic and they go very fast. It's like a segue and steroid steroids and there's a way to make the motor go faster and we're going to amp it up to do that and it's a long life motor and go faster than that and you can put a limiter on it with the computer. And it's going to be all about life cycles he's going to have light cycle events like out front on occasion and the death ball and the one that goes up the two people in it with smaller light cycles that are lit and people think it's awesome and it's going to be like a pathway the light cycles go by behind glass and the juice stunts and you can see the stunts from either side of the bar and there's a way through but you don't know where they go in cuz they go in the building and it's going to freak people out. Those are his ideas and our ideas thus far and it's Thor Freya Zeus Hera and Uriel and got his wife say they have the tunnel one it says it's outstanding and he had the building idea which is outstanding and we can sell them across the street there are people ask for them as a way to do that now you walk across the street yes but you have to check who they are and what they're up to we're going to start doing this and he's building the light cycles now and in the United States cuz he sees the demand is ridiculous and people aren't doing it and they're going to there's going to be a Japanese version and a Chinese version but it's their factories and their light cycles and of course it's coming from us. And they're going to be DOT approved but we're going to sell them like this because it's impossible to sell them in the open market everybody forces each other out and we can take orders as well and we might have the dual drive not the light cycle drive we're talking about now they don't have anything like it and we don't want them replicating it but we want to be able to use it so he says we'll put into talks and we're trying to resolve it within 2 weeks and we're going to do that and we've been doing that so moving on shortly but this is the idea and it's going to happen now

Thor Freya

I'm all for this idea and we got to go ahead with it now

Zues

I am too and he and I are forming the company and they're going to help yes and they're going to be part of it a big part of it but it's going to be our designs and Thor and Freya are going to have designed input and we're going to use the design from the Batman bat pod for holding the tires on and it looks really cool and the rear wheel too it's intense this thing is so damn fast that it hurts to look at it and if you get the dual drive it's going to look even awesomer and eventually we'll have the real life cycle drive which is unbeatable but right now they don't want to so we're looking at a few options we have a lesser form

"Georgie we have to tell them before I'm swelled up like a balloon and we can't hide it!" I whined sitting down on the edge of Georgie's bed since he had moved out of the house and into his parents garage. Georgie leans against the closed door arms crossed over his chest staring down at me. I knew he wanted to just not tell them because we would get in trouble and just go live in the woods and forget out troubles. It's a fun dream but this baby is our reality now. "Dale keeps telling me to tell them I don't need you doin' it too." Flopping on my back I throw my arms over my face grumbling. "Georgie...we can't keep this a secret forever."

He strides over plopping down on the bed making me lift up on my elbows watching him. He dropped his head in his hands running his fingers through his hair sighing. "So you're parents or mine. Do you want me with ya?" His brown eyes locked on mine weakly smiling. Getting to my feet I run my hands over my jeans, pulling a jacket on and zipping it closed offering my hands to his pulling him up. Parking in the driveway of my house I unbuckle my seatbelt taking a few breaths then heading for the door ringing the doorbell. The door opened by my mother who gave a warm smile to the two of us. "Y/n, Georgie, come in and sit. I just made some cookies." Georgie closed the door as I take a seat on the couch playing with my hands.

“Thanks mom...is dad here?" She sits the cookies on the table in front of us with Georgie sitting beside me. She nodded going out the backdoor knowing he's outside working on something in the barn. A few seconds later they both came in standing where I nervously eyed them hoping they won't freak out. "So there's something I need to tell you and please don't be mad but I'm...I'm pregnant." My mother's mouth dropped opened in shock while my father ran into the back room coaking a shotgun where Georgie stiffened his back. "Who is this son of a bitch!" I blurted out not really meaning too where I throw my hands over my mouth afterwards. "Dad please don't shoot, Georgie." My father slowly lowered his weapon blinking before he raised his voice towards Georgie. "Get the hell out of my house. I once said you couldn't date my daughter if you kept that van and now you've gotten her pregnant you idiot!"

My mother just sits still as Georgie pressed his body into the couch looking at me terrified. I feel tears welling in my eyes because this is the very possibility that I was afraid of. "Dad, look I love him and I'm sorry but he says he'll be there-" I try explaining but he throws his hands up scoffing. "Yeah right. Seriously if he's not out of here in five seconds-" My mother gets to her feet grabbing his arm holding him for a second then bending down to me with a weak smile. "Sweetheart, I'm not happy about this but you are still my child so I won't kick you to the curb....I just can't believe we're gonna be grandparents." She started crying where I jumped to my feet hugging her lightly crying in relief. "Cooper, I want to talk with your foks about this understand." My father declared pulling me into a hug seeing Georgie nervously shake his head yes.

After a few hours of talking with my parents we got back in the car but I grabbed the keys from Georgie's hand so we couldn't go anywhere. He turns his head staring at me. "What's goin' on, darlin'?" Sucking in a breath I simply explained knowing that we need to just rip the bandage off on both ends. "We have to tell your parents or when my parents want to talk about the baby it'll be extremely akward." He rests his hands on the steering wheel throwing his head back in annoyance. Finally looking at me he nodded in agreement starting the truck driving home. Georgie went back to the garage waiting for me while I entered through the back door seeing his father is home. He's drinking a beer in the kitchen seeing me. "Hi Y/n, what have you been up to?" Twisting the fabric of my jacket I glanced to the floor mumbling. "Georgie and I need to talk to you about something, George - uh Mr. Cooper." He nodded following me into the garage eyeing his son. "What's going on?" Georgie and I glanced to each other where I reached down intertwining our hands when Georgie replied simply. "It's kinda hard to talk about...we...I...I got a girl pregnant."

It’s Blind Date Time!!!

Pick an AEW wrestler who you would have a great time with. What are you doing and who set you up.

And another AEW wrestler who you have a terrible time with. What went wrong and who set you up

This was surprisingly tough for me, Sweet Tits. That's why it has been sitting in my asks for weeks. But, I have finally managed to get something decent done

"Please don't, Kris."

"Oh come on... you're the salty one because you're on a bit of a dry spell. So just go out with the guy, and see where it leads."

I frown at my friend, I can't believe she just put me out there like this. Calling it a dry spell? In front of Chuck, OC, and Trent?! What the hell!

Chuck and OC chuckle at her comment, Trent just shakes his head before Kris speaks again. "Come on now, don't be a Debby Downer. It could be fun, right? I mean, the guy's kinda cute, ya know? And you do know him. From here."

"Who, Kris, who is it?!" She just laughs and gives me the address of the restaurant to meet the mystery man that evening. I reluctantly take it, and hope for the best.

When I arrive at the rather fancy location, I immediately feel underdressed. She could've told me this was...fine dining. I scan the room for a familiar face, and then I see him. You've got to be kidding me! HOOK?! He's like ten years younger. A baby basically. I walk over to him and greet him. He just nods, and I can tell he's just as disappointed as I am. To him, I am an old fuck.

"Kris played us dirty, huh?" I try to lighten the mood, and he laughs a bit at my comment.

"She did. No offense, but you're really not my type." He states, and I chuckle.

"No offense taken, I'm glad we're feeling the same about this. Do you wanna leave, or are we having dinner? It's okay if we just go home." I say and honestly mean it.

He just shrugs, and motions me to finally sit down. "I wouldn't mind getting something to eat."

I nod reassuringly, and sit down. After a few awkward minutes, we find something to talk about, and have a decent conversation. I'm still glad when the food arrives, so we don't have to force ourselves to keep talking.

It's just not a date, it's more like friends grabbing a bite together. And not even that, because we're not friends. We don't know each other that well.

And I don't think we ever will. We're just too different.

We make it through the evening, split the bill, and leave, both disappointed with our little experience, ready to get into Kris' face next time we see her.

-------------------------------------

"You know I don't like being set up with someone. Remember how last time went down? Most awkward date I've ever been on! Who is it anyways?" I ask, already annoyed with my friend Trent. He just grins down at me. "You know, I am pretty sure you'll like him. I'm not gonna tell you who it is, because it is called blind date for a reason."

I smile up at him, like an idiot, and he already knows I'm gonna tell some lame joke.

"You're setting me up with a blind guy?!" I giggle, partially because of my own joke, partially because of Trent's eyes rolling to the back of his head while he comedically sighs. "I already pity the poor soul who has to spent time with you and your stupid jokes."

"Well, maybe you'll find a deaf guy, so he doesn't have to hear my voice, then. I'd rather go on a deaf date anyways."

"Oh my God, seriously, stop it! I know you're an idiot, but you've just reached a whole new level. Here, meet him at this venue." He says as he hands me a piece of paper.

I look down at it and grin. "Miniature golf? Dude seems to be an idiot, too. So no need for me to hold back." I pat his back a couple of times, before I leave him standing there, mouth hanging open.

When it's time to meet the dude, I am actually a bit excited, because no matter what I said earlier, I love miniature golf. So even if the guy sucks, at least we're doing something fun. I enter the area, which is a really nice place, lots of cute decorations, and some great places to go grab a bite. Just my cup of tea. I smile to myself, before a weak 'hi' makes me turn around. I know that voice...

"What are you doing here?" I say as I look him up and down. He's always so fucking gorgeous, it makes my heart skip a beat.

He doesn't answer, but puts his hands in his pocket and bounces a little on his feet.

"Wait...You're my date? My blind and deaf date?" I am puzzled, and then I smile at him. "I knew it had to be an idiot!" I laugh, but he still seems nervous.

"Are you disappointed?" He murmurs, hands still in his pockets, fumbling inside them.

"Aww, Trent, my dear, sweet, idiotic Trent..." I start as I wrap my arms around him for a hug. "I am pleasantly surprised...I'm glad it's you." The tension leaves his body as he listens to me, and he finally hugs me back, a crooked smile gracing his lips, before he dismisses himself to get us some clubs and balls.

We start our first round, and everything is just as usual. We laugh, we talk, we just have fun. That is until we finished hole no. 5 and I get suspicious. "Are you letting me win, Trent? Or are you really this bad?"

A hearty laughter leaves his mouth. "I am really this bad. I'd NEVER let you win ANYTHING on purpose. You're an obnoxious winner." He explains before putting his hand on my lower back to guide me to the next course. And that's when I realize it: This is really a date. He is really into me, just as I am into him.

His touch may be subtle, the smallest of gestures, but it sets my skin on fire and makes all the nerves in my body tingle. I lean into his body a bit and look up at him. His cheeks turn a soft pinkish hue when our eyes meet. He presses a small kiss on my temple, and I almost pass out because of it. Why are his lips so soft? Why is his beard tickling me in all the right ways? And most importantly: Why haven't we done this earlier?!

"Alright, time for me to own your ass!" He says as he lets go of me and puts his ball down to start the next round. Just as he swings his club, I retort. "But you've already owned my ass for quite some time." He loses all momentum that he dramatically built up and his golf ball goes flying in the hedge nearby.

"Hey, that's cheating! You did that on purpose!" He playfully yells, finger angrily pointing at me as he walks over. When he's right in front of me, I shrug before bringing my hands together on the back of his head. The mockery falls from his face as he looks at me and swallows hard before he almost whispers. "Seriously, don't fuck with me like that."

"Really, Trent?! I was kinda hoping we would do that at some point...That was very poor phrasing." I say, and it takes him a moment to understand what I mean. Meanwhile, I move one of my hands up on his head and run it over his buzz cut. Then, I can't even tell who started it, but our lips magically find their way on each other. And it is not what I imagined. It is ten thousand times better. And I can already tell I want more. I NEED to kiss him day and night, for the rest of my existence. When we pull away from each other, he looks down at me and grins like an idiot. I am pretty sure my grin matches his.

But then again, this should not be surprising, because we are indeed two idiots.

Two idiots falling in love with each other.

"Aren't you even a little curious about it?"

You've heard this question thousands of times already; yet, the answer for it has never changed.

"No, not really." You shrug while your friend stares at you in disbelief. "Why do you ask knowing my answer?"

"I just had the hope that you changed your mind," Jeonghan says. "You know, out of everyone in our group of friends, you're the only one who hasn't found their soulmate."

You take one last sip of your tea and sigh, "And you're telling me this to make me feel bad?"

"No! It's just... I thought that would make you feel at least curious of the person whose name is written on your wrist ever since forever."

Your eyes immediately go to your wrist, and your other hand covers the name with your sleeve.

"And I still don't get your habit of covering it, as if you don't want us to know." He laughs. "Are you trying to ignore it and expect to find them like people picture it on dramas?"

Inevitably, you roll your eyes, "I don't know what to tell you. I just think that if we're really meant to meet, then it's gonna happen... someday. I'm in no rush."

Jeonghan nods in understanding, "I guess you're right."

"I am always right." You chuckle. "Now keep telling me about Injae, how is it going with her?"

That's exactly the way you would always dissociated yourself from the topic every time you were asked about it. It wasn't something you really cared about, unlike to your friends. You were happy with the way things are right now.

"... we are taking things slow, and it's all going great. I am really happy about it." He puts on a goofy smile and his ears and cheeks quickly covers in a tinted pink.

"Aw, my little Jeonghan is in love, who would've thought?"

"Shut up, who said anything about love?" He tries to act cool, but he's still smiling and feeling nervous.

"Please," You scoff. "That smile tells me you're head over heels about her. And the way your eyes shine whenever you talk about her? Seems like love to me."

"Ha, ha, ha, you really like to make fun of me, don't you?" He sarcastically blurts. "I am dying to see how you're gonna be once you meet your soulmate. "

"Mmh, we'll see about that..."

Just when you're about to continue reading your textbook, your phone buzzes over the table. You already got distracted by talking to Jeonghan when you both were supposed to be studying for the upcoming exams, but you decide to read the messages you received.

"What's better, keep studying or going out to grab lunch with Sihwan?" You throw the question in the air, to which your friend hums.

"Your friend that works at JYP entertainment?" You nod. "I mean, anything is better than studying for socials, so if I were you, I would go."

"You say that because you want to bump into an idol, don't you?"

"If you meet Twice, could you ask them to  autograph something for me?" He says with a pout, making you laugh.

"I am not that lucky." You say and quickly start gathering your belongings to put them on your backpack. "You're meeting Injae later, right? I'll catch you up at the dorm?"

"Sure, I'll see you later."

With that being said, you start walking to the building. Even when your friend has invited you a couple of times already, you couldn't help but feel nervous. That weird feeling in your stomach and the tingling in your skin, like chills. Trying to ignore it, you pass by a nearby restaurant and order Sihwan's favorite food, carrying the bags carefully until you reach the entrance of the building.

After a few messages letting him know you're already there and a few more minutes of waiting, your friend greets you with a smile and a pat on your back, helping you with the bags in your hands and guiding you to the elevator. Unusual, but you don't say anything about it.

"I have more work than usual today, I hope you don't mind eating in my studio."

"You won't get in trouble?" You ask, feeling concerned,  but he only denies with his head as he presses a button.

"Don't worry, it's fine."

You silently follow him, trying to not look at anyone in the eyes when you walk through the hall, all the way to the studio. Anyway, no one seems to be aware that you are a regular college student. Lots of people work in there and it's hard to keep track of everyone in there.

"Come in, seriously, it's okay." He chuckles by seeing how you look around and slowly walk inside. "I've been working on the melody and guide for a new group these past hours."

The door is closed and Sihwan sits on the office chair and signals the sofa behind it for you to do the same.

"You brought food from that new restaurant down the street? Sweet." He says and opens the bag, placing the food containers on the wooden table between you two. "I've been starving."

"Working for a new group, you said?" You ask with interest, grabbing what you ordered for yourself and start eating as well.

Sihwan nods, "A girl group, they've been working hard and will debut soon, I hope you can listen to them."

"I am kinda old school, but for you I can do it, I guess..."

You two continue having a conversation about music and how you've been doing at college while sharing food. The last time you met with him was a couple of months ago, so the conversation keeps going for a while until he decides it's time to go back to work.

"Well, in that case I'll leave you. I've got to go back to study too." You say as you stand up and clean the desk.

"Mmh, okay. Thanks for this, how about we go have dinner next week? It's gonna be on me."

"Sounds great to me. Text me the details later?"

"Sure thing." He promises and smiles. "You know how to get back, right?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. See you!"

As soon as you step out of the studio, you look around to make sure no one is walking in the hall, so you almost run to the elevator, not expecting that someone would bump into you as they exit one of the offices.

You fall to the ground and start apologizing immediately, feeling embarrassed.

"I am so sorry, I didn't see you." You hear them saying.

"No, I am sorry, I shouldn't have ran here." You say, and as you try to stand up, they're extending their hand to you to help you up.

You take the help and do a reverence as a thank you and clean the invisible dust on your clothing, and as you're about to walk to the elevator, their voice stops you.

"Y/N L/N?"

You stop on your tracks and finally have the courage to stare at them in the eye and realize that it's a guy, and a very handsome one, you must add. Your legs tremble at the sight, clearly stunned by seeing someone so good-looking. Your immediate thought is that he's an idol or trainee.

"Uh, do we know each ot-?"

Your question is interrupted as he shows you his wrist, and that's when you see it clearly. Your name tattoed on his skin.

"I am Hwang Hyunjin... your soulmate."

You're at the loss of words. The only thing you can do is get lost in his eyes staring back at you, looking for whatever to say, but the situation feels unreal. It's like your body is frozen.

"Hey, Hyunjin, is everything okay out there?" A third voice coming from the office brings you back down to earth.

"I am sorry, I gotta go." You quickly say the second he is distracted, running as fast as your legs allow it and get in the elevator, pressing the bottons and seeing him run in the hall one last time before the doors finally close.

You exit the building and walk to the bus stop, looking back from time to time only to realise that Hyunjin has not followed you. With your heart beating like crazy and your hands shaking you get to text Jeonghan to let him know you were on your way back to the apartment and that you had big news. He was definitely not going to believe it.

"Ow! What was that for?" You groan as Jeonghan grabbed a pillow and threw it to you.

"You just ran away?!"

"I panicked, okay? You can't put the blame on me for that!"

"With all due respect, you're an idiot." He sighs. "You met your soulmate and just ran, oh god... What are you going to do?"

"Uhh... nothing?"

Jeonghan grabs the pillow again just to throw it at you, but your hands stop him.

"Okay, okay, I'll do something about it. I'll go see him again!"

"That's a big lie, you say that as if I don't know you." He rolls his eyes.

"Yes, I am a coward. I don't know what should I do, help me." You say with a pout.

"Your friend? He may know him, don't you think?" He states as if it's so obvious.

"Ooh, you're right! I am going to have dinner with him next week, I can ask him..."

"See? It's like the universe is conspiring for you to meet again... Properly meet, I mean."

You stop listening to him as he starts complaining and making fun of the way you reacted earlier.  Your mind is now finding a good way to reach out to him.

"...And I could finally finish that song." Sihwan says with a grin and takes a sip of his beverage. "I was practically isolated and had no proper human contact for a while, so thanks to our talk and delicious food I could finish in no time after that."

You giggle, "Really? Then I am happy I could be helpful, don't forget to add me on the credits."

He laughs at the joke and continues talking, "You didn't get caught on your way out, right?"

"Well... about that."

"Wait, are you serious? Did you get in trouble?" He asks, concerned.

"No, no! It's just that... Do- do you know Hwang Hyunjin?"

It's now or never.

Sihwan seems to think about it for a second, feeling confused. "Yeah, I mean, our team is not working with them, but I've talked to him and his group a couple of times. Why? You ran into him?"

"Yeah, but also..." You lift the sleeve of your shirt, letting him see the name written on your skin.

"No way! Really?" He says with a big smile. "Hell, congratulations! How- wait, why don't you look happy about it?"

"Because I panicked and ran away before I could say something to him." You say and hide your face behind your hands out of frustration. "I need your help, hyung."

"Okay," He chuckles. "Of course, what can I do to help?"

You sigh and take out a folded paper from the pocket of your ripped jeans, looking at it for a second before handling it to your friend. "Could you give this to him?"

Sihwan takes it and nods. "Of course, I'll give it to him as soon as I can."

Now all you have to do is wait.

You plop down in the sofa and stare at the screen of your phone for the millionth time today, feeling hopeless at this point. It has been one week since you asked Sihwan to give that letter to Hyunjin, and ever since, you couldn't help but wait for a message from him, or even a call, despite you don't knowing what would you even say.

"Hmm, you haven't heard anything from him?" Jeonghan asks and sits next to you. You deny with your head and sigh. "Maybe he's busy. I heard his group is going to do a comeback soon."

"A what, now?" You ask, and your friends looks as you in disbelief.

"Don't tell me you haven't looked up for him on internet. I mean, he was in JYPE for a reason."

"Uhh..."

"Oh my god, I swear you are..." He doesn't finish his premise. Instead, he takes the phone from your hands and looks up for his name on the web. "Stray Kids, you didn't look up for him? I can't believe this, are you even on social media?"

"Shut up, let me see this."

You quickly read their information, going directly to the names and pictures of the members, quickly finding Hyunjin and realizing your friend is right. How come you didn't think of it?

"Oh yeah, here says they're releasing an album in a few days..."

"Told you." He murmurs. "Are you still going to wait for him to text you?"

"Do I have another option? I don't think I can go around the building just looking for him, even if I am with Sihwan."

"Hmm, you're right. I hope you can talk soon, though. Imagine this: you and Hyunjin together, we become friends and he gives me a tour in JYPE to meet Twice."

You roll your eyes and stand up, "You're being delusional. I'll go to sleep now, goodnight!"

"That's rude!" He groans and sees you walk away. "I hope you panick and run away again next time you see him!"

The next morning when you wake up, the first thing you do is check your phone, and your heart almost stops when you see a new message from an unknown number.

You go clean your face and take a deep breath to gather the courage you needed to finally read the long-awaited message.

With trembling hands you unlock your phone and click on the notification.

It was no surprise to see how easy was to talk with him. You two started talking on regular basis, when he was free from his schedule and when you weren't studying, which happened really late at nights.

Soon, those thousands of messages became frequent phone calls and videocalls that lasted hours, and to say that you both trusted each other with your lives was an understatement. You were still getting used to the idea that your soulmate was an idol; and it was weird to see him constantly on the internet, as of course you started following every other fan account you found on social media. Hyunjin, on the other hand, was trying to be very supportive of your studies and kept sending you messages of encouragement as well as listening to your ramblings about your career and complaints about your professors.

"So you've caught feelings for him, right? It was about time, Y/N" Jeonghan says with a shrug. "I know some soulmates only work as friends and all that, but it was pretty obvious to me that you'd end up in a romantic relationship."

"Really?"

He nods and smiles. "Of course! Are you going to ask him out?"

"I was planning to, but what if he doesn't feel the same? What if he just sees me as the friend type?"

Jeonghan hums. "Well, I think it's gonna be okay. You're soulmates for a reason, don't you think?"

You hesitate to grab your phone and open the message bar, typing a question and hoping things will go well after pressing the send button.

"Hyun, is it okay if I ask you out?

Like, on a date?"

A few minutes later you receive an answer,  needless to say, you didn't expect him to reply now, so you feel as if your heart is about to make a hole on your chest right now.

Hyun ♡

God, I was really hoping I wasn't the only one feeling this way.

Of course it's okay

I would love to go out on a date with you, Y/N ♡

You now feel at ease, the butterflies flying in your stomach and your body feeling so light as if you were floating. Is that how being in love feels like?

"He said he'd love to go on a date with me." You announce with a smile.

"See? There you go, my plan of meeting Twice soon is going awesome." He says and you give him a deathly glare. "I am kidding! But I have to say, who's smiling and blushing like a dumb right now?"

"Jeonghan!" You groan and grab a pillow to throw it at him, but he's quicker to stand up and walk away, still laughing.

Hyun ♡

Now you're not being shy, eh?

You won't run away from me when we meet?

You're the worst, you text back.

Hyun ♡

I may be

But I am your soulmate, so pretty much you can't get rid of me

He was right, but you were not intending to do that.

Because, now more than ever, you were sure things were meant to be this way. Right next to him forever.
