a/n : yandere riki!, reblogs & likes are appreciated.. my amazing riki<3 this is one i recently wrote!!

click me! ↓

ㅤ𝐍𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐔𝐑𝐀 𝐑𝐈𝐊𝐈, one of the world's famous Japanese artist who was known for his unique yet beautiful paintings. Many of his beautiful paintings are displayed in prestigious galleries. His creations capture the essence of a beautiful, young woman, immortalized on canvas. However, what all these people didn't know was that this woman was real.

ㅤYou, his muse, find yourself in his art. A testament to the deep affection and perhaps a touch of obsession Riki holds for you. "You can lie on the couch, but be sure to show me your soft back.." Riki instructs as he gently adjusts the shirt you wore so your back shows enough to his liking.

ㅤ"Let me sketch you, my love." Riki's voice was so gentle that you almost forget you're handcuffed.. forced to stay with him, isolated in his house. It's not like he treated you badly, it was quite the opposite. He spoiled you, with affection and gifts, there were nights where he held you close. Whispering into your ear of how you 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈 to him and 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 him.

  ㅤYou were his most valuable gem, his lucky charm. He was so obsessed with you, it was hard not to be. As you listen to him obediently, he presses a kiss to your lips before sitting behind the empty canvas, holding his palette which had different mixes of nude and mute colors. "Love, look at me."

ㅤRiki's voice was gentle, like always, except for the rare times when you tried running away. But now you knew better than to run away, and simply listened to him. You slowly look at him, and he smiles at you. "Good girl." He coos before beginning to paint the empty canvas with light strokes, the image in his head of how he'd dress you painted.

ㅤIn almost all his paintings with you, you only ever wore dresses. He loved seeing you wearing dresses, big dresses, small dresses, fancy dresses.. you could wear a garbage bag an he'd still love to look at you. Maybe it's her eyes.. Riki thought, but no.. it was really just his obsession.

Panic Attack -Tamaki x Reader

Ahh finally got a Tamaki one out!! Man I don't pay my baby enough attention 🥺// I was going to wait to post until tomorrow, but I've been working on this all day -like 5-30 minutes of writing before doing something else- and just couldn't wait to give my baby some love.

After a hushed argument with Mirio people start gossiping about Tamaki, accusing him of things he's never done, and whispering horrible things around him. After having a panic attack, he makes it to his your dorm, where you comfort your distressed Tama. | 1,186 words | fluff/comfort

Warnings!: Mentions of gossiping, social anxiety, and a panic attack.

Tamaki is usually okay at school. As long as he didn't have to publicly speak, he left each room after the majority did, he had the availability to take a break, and most importantly, he had one of his best friends with him at all times. Even if it was just one, he honestly needed them to stay sane.

Today's been off. You got sick and so you had to stay home. And so Tamaki had to wait another ten minutes for Nejire to agree to take him to school. After they reached the door Nejire ran off to a meeting for the beauty pageant, leaving Tamaki alone in a semi-crowded hallway. Anxiety filled Tamaki as he kept his head down, walking on the sidelines, trying to find his locker and avoid interaction at all cost.

His breath got stuck in his throat as he felt a hand clasp his shoulder. He squeezed his eyes shut, trembling as he started growing smaller, sinking toward the floor.

"Tamaki! What's going on? Where's y/n?" A familiar warm voice hissed into his ear, causing him to calm down.

"Y-y/n's sick." Tamaki muttered, opening his eyes and partially straightening his posture.

"Okay?! What about Nejire!" Mirio countered, concerned for his friend. And even though he was just trying to help, the raised voice and whispers around Tamaki made him want to hurl, so he quickly turned to a locker, pressing his forehead against the cool metal.

"S-she had a meeting.."

"And she just left you!?"

"Mirio please..."

"Did she?"

"Yes! Obviously." Tamaki hissed, anxiety overwhelming his senses as he listened to the whispers about Mirio's persistence.

"Tamaki.. here I'll take you to class."

"No thanks." After a few more moments to collect himself Tamaki moved off of the locker and made his way to class, anxiety a lot worse then normal.

For the rest of the day Tamaki avoided Mirio, feeling hurt by his concerned nagging. It would've been alright if it was just them, but all those students were around and heard. And boy did word spread.

Students whispered to one another all day, gossiping about how Tamaki and Mirio were fighting, and how Tamaki lashed out. The story was shared countless times, and each time the story became a little more stretched, finally reaching a point where they were saying that Tamaki and Mirio were screaming at one another and that Tamaki was being a total jerk and that his entire personality was fake.

As the last bell of the day rang Tamaki swallowed hard, heart beating rapidly. As he waited for the students to shuffle back to their dorms he panicked as he realized that a lot of students were staying behind -watching him. As he felt their stares rake his body, panic set in, causing him to softly hyperventilate. Standing up, he shook as he started walking to the door, elvish ears picking up all of the students whispering.

"Look! That's the kid who tried to beat up Togata!"

"I heard that he's a pervert with a body count over 40. Stay away from him."

"I'mma beat that punk up for messing with Togata!"

"Hey.. isn't he that tentacle freak?"

"He's so pathetic looking! He'll never score a girl!"

"He's so.. ugly."

Tamaki's face flushed as his heart slammed against his chest, making it hard to breathe. The whispering made his head spin as tears pricked at his eyes.

Continuing to walk, he desperately tried to calm his breathing as he felt a massive panic attack evade his senses. It only worsened as people surrounded him, some giving him looks and whispering to each other.

The attention only made his panic attack worse, causing his hands to shake. Walking out to the entrance, he swiftly made his way to the dorms, not noticing Nejire calling after him.

"Darnit Amajiki what's your problem?" She called, pouting as she watched him go.

You grabbed another tissue, blowing your nose. After discarding it into the trash next to your bed, you continued to scribble at your homework, frowning as you erased your answer yet again.

In your deep concentration, you didn't notice your boyfriend's your door being opened and closed. Nor did you notice your boyfriend sinking to the floor, hugging his knees to his chest, tears finally falling down his face, limbs shaking.

After another half hour or so you finally noticed Tamaki as he crawled into his your bed, moving to be semi-close to you.

"Oh- when did you get here Baby?" You ask, smiling down at him as he moves his head to your shoulder.

"Just barely.."

You could tell by his voice and how he pitifully nuzzled his nose into your neck that something was off.

"Tama baby, what happened?" You coo, setting aside your work.

"Nothing.. just another day." His voice sounded heavy, and slightly cracked, something was definitely wrong.

"Love.. look at me." You whisper, gently grasping his face to hold in your hands, rubbing a thumb over his cheek.

You smiled sadly as he looked up at you, tears in his eyes and past stains marking his beautiful face. "Oh hunny what happened?" You ask softly, wiping away his tears.

"....."

"My love, it will be easier to let it out then hold it in. Trust me, I'm safe. It's just us. Just you, and me. Your y/n."

"Bunny am I ugly!? A-am I some freak because of my quirk!? D-d-d- Doyouactuallywanttobewithme!?" (Do you actually want to be with me) Tamaki sobbed, burying his head into your chest, clinging to you desperately.

"Baby! How- how could you think any of those horrid things!? You're not ugly, you're gorgeous, in no way are you a freak! If we're talking about your quirk, you have an amazing one! And of course I want to be with you! You're perfect for me! I couldn't never, and would never want to love anyone else but you! You, my adorable, shy, romantic, and gorgeous baby! What's got you thinking these things Bub?!"

Tamaki cried as he clung to you, still shaking. "I-it's a long story my love.."

"And I want to hear every bit of it."

You held him all night, and after a while he stopped sobbing and spent the rest of the night thanking and complimenting you, telling you how much he dearly loved you, and named every little thing he loved about you until he fell asleep, nuzzled into your arms. Tamaki ended up getting sick with you, so you spent days cozied in bed with one another, binging shows, telling stories, and simply just talking.

After you got better you had some harsh words with Mirio and Nejire, making them promise to apologize and he a lot more considerate. Afterwards, you had them help knock down the rumors and chew out anyone who whispered about Tamaki, and especially the ones who helped blow them out of porportion. They were quite willing to listen with three powerful year three students breathing down their necks.

When Tamaki got back into school he was surprised -and relieved- to find multiple apology notes stuffed into his locker, and many from Miro and Nejire in person.

Hey Vivi it’s me again I have a fic request . Could you write a fic with ace x f reader where she was living in a very complex village with there own language and everything like outfits to ( she lives on a deserted island ) but like where ace just happened to find her

BYEEEE 🧡💛🧡💛💛💛🧡🧡🧡

Hi @hobiefan. Thank you for another request. This was an interesting one for me to write, if I'm being honest. I really don't know another language, so it was a challenge. In the end, I decided to use Hawaiian as the language and the actual look of the village to be similar to were Tama lived on Wano. It's one of the languages I have wanted to learn. Anyways, I hope you enjoy it!

Portgas D Ace x Fem Reader: New Favorite Place

Ace had only been a captain for about a year now when he found your island. They might have crashed it...again. But while a few of the crew members fixed the ship, he and Deuce decided to explore the island. It was clearly deserted, as once they left the soft sandy beach, there were only trees. At least until they saw a small little village of some sort. There were neatly made wood huts. They didn't see any people, which was unusual. Just as the two were about to get up, a blunt object made impact with the back of their heads. The two pirates blacked out.

The two men woke up in a daze. They noticed they were in the little village now. Ace went to stretch, but his body was bound to a large poll, and he was sitting down. An older man, dressed in a red shirt with intricate gold white and plain matching pants walked up to the boys. He spoke in a very deep and stern voice, "ʻO wai kou inoa?" Ace looked at Deuce.

"Huh?," Ace asked, looking at the man puzzled. Soon after, a small girl, about his age, dressed in a plain light blue shift dress with a short bob and a hibiscus flower in her hair walked up to the man. She said something to the man, before looking at Ace. "My father asked you what your name is," she said, crouching down to be at his level. "I'm sorry about our chief, we have a different language here. I speak our language and yours. I can translate. What is your name any why are you here?"

"Portgas D Ace. I'm a pirate, but my boat crashed here."

She looked at her father before speaking again, "ʻO Ace kona inoa a he poʻe pōā ʻo ia. Aole lakou maanei e aihue."

Her father yelled something and a few large men dressed like the chief came and cut the rope off of Ace. "I'm sorry about that. We need to fix our ship. Some of my crew are gathering supplies. I promise not to bother you all."

***

But, Ace bothered you all anyways. He was at your village everyday. He learned so much about your culture and even tried learning the language. Let's just say. He wasn't very good at it. It was the last day on the island. As his crew packed up to go, he ran back to your village to find you. He found you watering the flowers outside your home. He ran up to you out of breath, "Hi! So, we're leaving today and I wanted to tell you something. I know it's only been a week, but I like you. Not as a friend..." He was about to continue with a beautiful long speech, but you interrupted him by smashing your lips onto his. Your lips were sweet, like strawberries and he really enjoyed it. You broke away from him and said, "Aloha Au Ia ʻOe. It means I love you."

He looked at you and wrapped his arms around your smaller frame, "Aloha Au Ia ʻOe."

About an hour later, the Spade Pirates left your island. Everyone in the village waved goodbye to their new friends. That day, your island became his new favorite place Not because it was territory of the Spade Pirates, but because that was where you were.

Tama-Chan! If you had to rate the Hashira from least threatening, who would be your most frightening ler?

In my personal opinion, in solo, it would have to be Gyomei, but a certain trio would be the scariest for lers, Mitsuri, Tengen, and Rengoku!

I could see Mitsuri having this teasy love for how ticklish the Lee is, Rengoku giving motivational quotes to persevere through it and Tengen stating how flashy the laughter of their prey is.

Though least threatening Hashira? Possibly Giyuu, poor boy is probably the most ticklish to even attack.

ahh thank you for this ask !! i love discussing my demon slayer cuties ヾ(☆'∀'☆)

i love your thoughts ahhh esp of rengoku °₊·ˈ∗♡( ˃̶᷇ ‧̫ ˂̶᷆ )♡∗ˈ‧₊° personally i have always found tengen to be the most frightening ler, BUT with the recent gyomei backstory stuff and considering his physical strength, agility and general power, i am starting to lean more towards him haha |๑˃ ॢ‧̫˂ॢ๑ ).*˚‧♡ growing up as the elected older sibling of so many orphans, it is definitely expected that he would be seasoned in tickled fights and know a technique or too lol. and of course with his quick thinking and honed strength… it would be an execution for sure (〃￣ω￣〃ゞ i would not dare imagine the consequences of challenging him upfront. although i can definitely imagine inosuke making that mistake, and winding up a tickle-destroyed puddle on the ground aha <3

tengen-kun also has always seemed a frightening ler to me, mostly due to his teasing personality and love for taking others down in a showy way lol. also just so many scenes that directly gave me ler vibes lol (like the hashira training arc ofc). and he is with three beautiful girls all the time, i mean… come on (눈_눈)

mitsuri is big brain as a ler too even if i constantly lee her lol ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡)˚๐*˟ ♡ since she is so aggressively affectionate lol. she def tickles everyone she becomes friends w at least once; it is one of her fav ways of showing affection <3 but she is always really gentle and lovey with it so i just cannot classify her as scary haha.

and rengoku would surely be a formidable ler, i mean big strong man with playful tendencies is always a dangerous combo lol (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄) i love your thought of him being encouraging while rocking someone’s shit lol. i also feel like he would be the type to accidentally go overboard too haha but he means no harm; honestly even cuter idea, if he is with someone he is close with, he will even have them guide his hands to help him tickle gentler (๑ˊ͈ ॢꇴ ˋ͈)〜♡॰ॱ cute cute

honestly sanemi can be a scary ler too, it is just rare for him to tickle someone. buuut with genya ?? absolutely lol and ofc this only really applied well with like a happy ending au but imagining sanemi waking up his stubborn sleepy brother with merciless tickles is way cute haha, like you can just picture sanemi-kun’s super mean and scary face while laying into genya’s sides with the most playful of tickling (๑॔˃̶ॢ◟◞ ˂̶ॢ๑॓)♡

and shinobu i mean. she has got to be a top ler for me haha (｡・//ε//・｡) and anyone who knows her character even a little bit will know what i mean haha. a soft-spoken dainty girl with secret anger issues, giving her kind of a yandere personality, which imo is a perfect ler recipe haha. it is also canon that a lot of characters that are at least a little afraid of her (even tougher characters lol) and she never holds back when it comes to vengeance. i have drawn her ler-ing a few different times so my stance on her may be obvious lol

and yes, of course muichiro, obanai and giyuu are about as intimidating as a mouse haha; muichiro is so refrained and aloof he surely does not have much experience aha, i think even if he were to attempt (like at tanjiro) it would be very timid and awkward like “am i doing this right..?” hehe ꉂ (′̤ॢ∀ ू‵̤๑))ˉ̞̭♡ and then obanai would never dare haha i could not even imagine. maaaaybe with mitsuri but it would definitely be a gentle scribble or quick goose at most. i could only attest that to his harsh upbringing, which makes him wary of intimacy (๑•́₋•̩̥̀๑) but i should not dampen the mood with angst aha.

and then giyuu you are 100% about hehe my sweet introvert boy (º̩̩́⌣º̩̩̀ʃƪ) he would get flustered as hell trying to tickle anyone hahaha. way too much playfulness for him he just is not used to it hehe  ♡(˃͈ દ ˂͈ ༶ ) and even if he could, any attempt at anyone with a modicum of retaliation tendencies would be instant death for him haha, the poor ticklish thing. he is definitely easy to overwhelm too, whether it be teasing or tickling <3 hang in there, giyuu-kun !!!

anyways, those are my detailed thoughts, but if i had to make a general list of most to least scary hashira lers, it would probably go:

1) gyomei

2) tengen

3) shinobu

4) rengoku

5) sanemi

6) mitsuri

7) obanai

8) muichiro

9) giyuu

sorry for the looong post haha i always get this way when it comes to my demon slaying lovelies ♡✧。 (⋈◍＞◡＜◍)。✧♡

SAU, LA'U TAMA AULELEI - CHAPTER 10 !

pairings; teen!miguel o'hara x fem samoan oc

summary; Siana learns things the hard way. So does Miguel.

warnings/notes; phone sex 🥲 underage sex, gabriel getting walked in on F-F-FUCKING, a lil sprinkle of manaias mum and her lore 😞😉 jealous miguel, busted my ass trying to spell everything in samoan, and its still shit mb gang. trifling ass gabriel 😭 not proofread

series masterlist prev chap next chap

One can only imagine the humiliation someone can experience when they're weeping on the small, sharp rocks laid out in front of the house they once called home. Their fragile body can do nothing but shake and tremble as tears fall continuously down their hot face.

Those in Samoa who didn't have properly built walls around the comfort of their home, just a few pillars to hold a roof, were expected to hear the commotion from the larger house that they enclosed.

"Ga'o lou kē kē mai i lou kaemaile," A voice spat. A voice that held such authority over the poor teenagee that trembled on the ground. "Alu ese ma i!" [1 - just looking over here, you dogshit] [2 - get away from here!]

"Fa'amole, tinā. Fa'amagalo mai iā ke a'u," A held-back cry had been broken into a fit of multiple coughs. Sweaty palms had clasped together as if in prayer, trembling in the cold night, their hot cheeks that stung from numerous blows to the face had only added to the displeasure. The disgust. The shame. [Please mum, forgive me]

Siana was only 17 when she was kicked out of her family home. She was a disgrace, a disappointment, anything but a daughter in her parent's eyes. Her title as a Chief's and Pastor's only daughter was stripped away from her, leading to nothing. 17, pregnant, and with the little money she had in her pocket, she endured a walk of shame as eyes watched her leave her village. She was left living in the streets of Apia.

There isn't much a girl at her age can do when alone with little money and dressed in clothes that'll start to stink within the next day or two, as well as jobless. She most definitely wasn't going to be comfortable sleeping on the hard, freezing floor in front of the small shops she used to hang around with her friends. And she most definitely wasn't going to find it easy sleeping at all near those who were homeless, those who she made fun of with her friends for not having a proper roof over their heads. Now look at her. Alone, cold, and homeless.

Her knowledge of the work field was limited to nothing. How could she know anything? She was a spoilt child with no sense of knowledge on anything but her wants and needs. She didn't think that other teenagers her age needed to work because she didn't. She had money, food, a warm place to sleep; and necessities that people her age had to work for when their parents had it hard.

Nonetheless, Siana found herself sitting down, head and back against a wall while she had her arms wrapped around her legs that were clutched tight to her chest. There, she slept for the night.

Miguel had woken up in annoyance, scratching the back of his head roughly as he sat up. Heavy hands run through his soft brown hair, "Fuck," he mutters. He looks over to his alarm clock and it reads 3:16 am. Miguel wasn't the type to wake up in the middle of the night for nothing. Something had reached his ears, he's not crazy, he knows he isn't.

He sighs and tries not to think too deeply about his sudden awakening, now resting his back against the headboard. Sucking in a deep breath, arms now crossed against his chest. He closes his eyes to relax, taking in the silence and slow breathing as a source of meditation. He doesn't remember much of his dream before it was ruined. What he does however remember, is holding the face of the most beautiful girl he's ever laid his eyes on.

Her face was like a puzzle piece that fit perfectly between his larger hands. Her doe eyes caught him in a trance, long eyelashes fluttering up at him. Miguel's hands were gentle with her, a thumb strumming against her smooth cheek, admiring her eternal beauty. Ever so plump lips curve into a gorgeous smile, then form into a shy grin as her eyes avert their gaze from his own. Honey brown eyes are forced to look into his own as he chuckles deeply, his head tilting as he follows her moving gaze.

"Look at me, Manaia," he finally whispers to calm her flustered state. She complies, now looking at up him with those same beautiful eyes. His eyes drop down to her lips as they open, "Miggy-"

"M-Mh! Gabriel" a distorted whimper calls out from the room next to Miguel's.

Then he finally hears what woke him up. He knew it, he knew he wasn't crazy.

Annoyed and furious. Miguel rushes and rips away his sheets from himself, getting up and putting on his night glasses. Too enraged, he walked out of his room without a shirt, the cold air of the early hours in the morning was most definitely not his main concern.

Without knocking, Miguel opens the door to Gabriel's room.

Gabriel whose face turns into disbelief, grabs his blanket to cover the lower half of his body at the sound of his door being opened.

"What the fuck is wro-"

"Who is it?" Miguel stomps closer, not caring about whatever the fuck he caught his brother doing.

"What-" Gabriel reaches along his bed and puts on his shirt that was disregarded an hour prior to cover himself more at each step Miguel took.

"Hang the fucking phone up," his nose flares, eyebrows creased. Not caring for answer, a loud bang is heard when Miguel hoists Gabriel by the collar of his shirt and slams him against his headboard, to which Gabriel groans, his own hands trying to push Miguel away, "Who the hell were you calling!?" Miguel yells.

If Gabriel weren't much of a fool, he would've noticed the slightly hurt tone in his older brother's voice. He could've also seen the tears that threatened to fall.

"Fuck! Get off me!" his hands flare everywhere, "I already hung up when you barged in like a fucking psycho!"

Still not getting the answer he needed, Miguel pulls his brother forward and harshly back against the headboard. Gabriel coughs harshly. Miguel sucks a breath in. He had to ask. He had to know.

And with what he asks, and what answer he gets is going to be all on him for being too overdrawn by emotion.

With a shaky breath, he glares into Gabriel's soul, "Was it Manaia you were on call with?

Gabriel, now stunned, his flaring hands had rested against his bed to keep himself up. A smirk arose on his face, all shock and anger had been thrown away. With a prideful grin, he chuckles deeply, "Yeah, it was her, Miggy. Got a problem?"

There was no way. There was no way in Hell it was her.

"Show me. Show me your fucking call history," he watches Gabriel grab his phone, "Don't move your phone away and delete shit. Unlock your phone and show me, Gabriel."

As Gabriel unlocks his phone, he taps onto the call app and shows his history.

Miguel's heart drops and shatters into pieces. Lo and behold the top name on his call list.

Manaia 💜 last ongoing call was at 3:19 pm

Sione <3: na na na come onnn

Sione <3: na na na come onnn

Sione <3: 'cause i may be bad but im perfectly good at itttttt

Sione <3: youve been hanging around david and kiuga too much to get that language

Sione <3: and come school you ass, im in the library by myself and you've been coming late for the past week 🥲 imy

naia fiyah: please i'll buy u food :(

Sione <3: aww u love me that much you'd spend money on me 🥹 u broke asssss

Sione <3: what is it dawg

naia fiyah: i really need to talk to miguel, i dont have his number and i wanted to apologise to him for something and i feel bad

Sione whines into his arm, "Stupid Samoan," he cries. Hiding his face in the arch of his bent arm, the other arm stretched out to watch his screen turn black. He sends a quick text confirming his part in the favour.

"Good morning, Sione," Miguel greets from behind, "Are you okay?"

Sione turns around and is met with Gabriel instead.

Oh.

Sione had forgotten how eerily similar, yet oddly different the O'Hara brothers were. The voice, hair, and face in some way were nearly the same.

Gabriel hadn't been in his new high school for more than two months, and people already mixed him up with the older O'Hara. None can blame him. One can, however, distinguish who was who if they tried.

Miguel was taller. On the buff side. Speaks only when spoken to. Most of all, he never talks to girls in the way they want to be spoken to, let alone touched. Miguel doesn't talk to girls in general, unless it's Manaia. For good reason, of course.

But now that reason was gone.

Gabriel on the other hand? He was lean and tall, but overthrown by his brother. For sure, friend requests were blowing up his phone by the time he had gotten home on his first day.

Sione nods his head in acknowledgement, "Uh yeah, yeah, m'fine. Thanks, Gabriel."

As much as Sione was desperate to befriend the younger sibling of his close friend, he wanted to back out of that idea. The eagerness compared to weeks ago was gone. He had no relation to Gabriel outside of school like he did with Miguel, and he had a feeling as to why. So he distanced himself from Gabriel as much as he could.

"Ah, good morning, Miggy," Gabriel sends a smirk to Miguel, the said boy who makes his way over to both of the teenagers.

Sione feels relief at the sight of his friend.

Miguel grumbles, his piercing eyes never leaving Sione, not wanting to ever look his brother in the eye. He takes a seat beside Sione, facing away from Gabriel, who stays standing up.

"Morning, Miguel. Manaia said she'd be here late, BUT- she does want to talk to you," he wraps a friendly arm around Miguel's shoulder. He feels disheartened when he gets shrugged off.

He chuckles dryly, looking over to Gabriel, "Like she'd want to talk to me. She was talking an awful lot last night with Gabriel."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Sione asks.

He looks back and forth between Miguel and Gabriel. To this, Gabriel just shrugs and lets out a small laugh before walking off.

"Oh, you're so funny, Gabriel!" a chuckle had left Manaia, she covers her mouth as she continues walking.

She has just arrived when the first break of the day started. She was greeted by Gabriel first, she didn't have a chance to find the rest of her friends as his arm was already draped along her shoulder.

Losing track of time, the bell had already gone as they spent their time together laughing and mucking around together.

Manaia while slightly disheartened at not seeing Sione, she turns to look at Gabriel.

"I have to go now, Gabri. I have English with Sione and Miguel now," she doesn't fight back a smile at the mention of the said O'Hara. Gabriel notices and bites back a smile himself.

"Oh right, yeah, Miguel," he looks down at the beautiful girl and gives her a feigned sad look. "You're interested in my brother, I'm guessing?"

Manaia hides her face in her hands, "No, not at all!"

"Hm, sure, sure."

All she had to do was say yes, and his plan was intact.

"Now, I thought you were a good girl. Don't good girls tell the truth?" Gabriel raises a brow, his free hand tickling her side.

She giggles, "Okay! Okay!"

She stops her steps, and Gabriel follows.

Now completely facing him, she takes his hands into hers and sways side to side to keep herself content, trying to ignore the shy feeling deep inside of her at the thought of Miguel.

"Miguel and I had a bit of an argument not too long ago," she shows a small pout, "But I want to be close to him again."

Perfect.

"Oh? That's perfect. I can help you out, Manaia," his charming smile hid his devious smirk.

Everything was in his favour.

Had a fun alternate idea for my 100 Girlfriends Fandom Negator set

Instead of the girls being the Negators, they're the Master Rules (not necessarily in order)

Hakari, UMA Lust - rule of sexual attraction; instills an aphrodisiac effect on those in her territory and manipulates targets with pheromones

Monkey D. Luffy, Trafalgar Law Finally Together?!

LAND OF WANO, New World | by @/truffyfest

LAND OF WANO, New World

It seems that after the miraculous victory over the ex-Emperors Kaido and Big Mom, emotions ran high, providing perfect ground for the two infamous pirates to finally confront the feelings that have been slowly blossoming ever since their alliance was created.

And now, with their alliance formally over, there is a bond between them that is stronger than ever! As you can see on the photographs our generous informant had sold— shared with us, the two have finally exchanged a romantic kiss under the moonlight, surrounded by beautiful lanterns during a lively festival in the Land of Wano. 

And what do their friends have to say about this revelation?

“About damn time,” Straw Hat’s ‘Cat Burglar’ Nami, told us simply, followed by several nods of agreement from ‘Pirate Hunter’ Zoro, and Heart Pirates’ Shachi and Penguin.

“I don’t f**king care. As long as they stop making out in front of my f**king face. Anyway, Apoo, your ass is still here?!” Eustass ‘Captain’ Kid, another member of the Worst Generation and a close friend of the two, said. (“I am not their friend!” he yelled, hurling a bunch of metal pipes at our informant.)

On the other hand, the guardian wolf of Wano (and Kaido’s son!) was quite excited at the news. “They are?! That’s great! Argh, why didn’t Luffy tell me?! We need to celebrate!”

We have also approached the new Shogun of Wano with his small friend, a young girl by the name of Tama, asking for their thoughts on the matter. Lord Kozuki Momonosuke blushed furiously, surprisingly innocent considering his mature, cool appearance. “Is—is that what it was?!” he asked, full of horror. “I thought they were fighting when I saw them earlier but you’re saying they were kissing?! Is that why Law-dono looked so angry when I interrupted them?! Oh god…”

Quite adorably, his young friend took the information in stride, laughing happily, “Oh that’s amazing! I hope big bros Luffy and Torao are happy!”

All in all, it looks like everyone is delighted at the news—including us! They are indeed a beautiful, sweet new couple!

But what does the couple in question have to say?

“Tell Big News-ya to f**k off about this already and stop making sh*t up to boost his stupid sales,” Trafalgar Law groaned, much to Straw Hat Luffy’s amusement.

When our informant in turn asked whether our reports helped them realise their feelings for each other, Straw Hat Luffy bluntly said he doesn’t read the newspaper because it’s ‘boring’ and “I only care when it’s about my friends” (we are preparing for a lawsuit with the both of them as you we speak).

Meanwhile, Trafalgar Law told us to ‘mind our own damn business’ and that ‘meddling in other people’s lives is entirely unwanted and unnecessary’.

We beg to differ, Surgeon of Death!

Look forward to more news on the adorable, official couple soon!

I've been waiting for this one all week. After playing Wano's supposedly "rushed" ending completely straight, only padding out some small amounts when all signs pointed to a decent opportunity for quality filler, we have one additional entry. Next week will likely be a straight retelling of Chapter 1057 and I bet they'll play up the theatrical tone whiplash like they've done everything else. Note like the rest of the arc, Kiku gets some of the rare extra love and I'm counting highlighting the field of flowers for her absent fight.

So...what will we get here? A filler episode likely won't be wildly altering the story. We're clearly using Tama and the samurai sans Momo & Kin. Baseline very happy to see this because even if it's just filling in goodbyes that's a very worthwhile filler. But we do have the peculiarities around Kiku. By now we've seen OP Academy pull the same trick with her & Yamato. The anime has leaned into a lot of the scenes we highlight with her and really between that first fight with Kanjuro and the beautiful extra flashback she got the most sweetening in the Raid. So I'm damn sure curious seeing the teahouse sneak into this.

Otsuru likely did not build an entire new teahouse, we just saw last episode Okobore was razed and she wanted to go back to life in the Capitol. The preview makes it look like we may jump around a lot. But if we're fabricating an entire teahouse at the end...why wouldn't I ponder having a little fun with the Poster Girl? Here's my guess. Without saying it directly, that scene with Zoro & Hiyori? We're going to suspiciously cut to it right when all signs point to something significant between Luffy and his sumo buddy. Filler episode's not gonna give you too much, but one more big example of the classic trick is bang on for what we've seen.

[bkgrl]

Just came back home for the holidays and found my old Mha OC and... How could I leave such ideas behind; like I'm talking about a full ledger, a backstory, and defined relationships ( and hard-core angst, like HARD-CORE ANGST with capital letters )

I'm gonna try to summarize it; Noriaki Yagi ( note that her name is typically a male name; note it for later it's important [ between no she's not trans it's something with her family lineage and all *angst* ]

As her family name points she is All Might's niece, so his brother's daughter Taro Yagi; the first son of the Yagi family, a long lineage of heroes and Taro is the heir to the agency that is passed down from generation to generation.

So to clarify there are conditions for it to be passed down; the heir has to look identical to the previous owner of the agency and have the same quirk ], and Taro in a quest to have a son and finally please his dad ( it's his real goal; he doesn't care much for the agency, he just want his dad's attention and affirmation ) had many wife's; the first one was Sana she was from North America and gave birth to Kana Yagi; who was a girl and looked nothing like him; 3a curly brown hair, dark skin, and green cat eyes ( she also has vitiligo marks around her left eye and neck; marks that in her grandmother's eyes taint her beauty and make her look like a monster paired with the white strands in her hair ), when she was 13 and her mom "died"( she was killed by the grandparents so their son could remarry and they didn't want to deal with a messy divorce as she loved her daughter dearly and would rather die than leave her behind) so she ran away and joined her uncle toshinori; who was also kicked out of the family because he was quirkless ( he didn't tell them about OFA obv ) so she trained and later became a pro-hero alongside her best friends Miruko and Keigo.

Nori ( nickname for Noriaki ) was 5 when all this happened; she was still living with her mom at the time; she and Taro had a one-night stand but when the grandparents found out she was pregnant they forced him to marry her and cast aside Sana ( the first wife ); the women he loved. This led to a toxic marriage; where Taro didn't love and resented Tama ( Nori's mom ), who loved him to the point of obsession; so to forget the pain she fell into a drug addiction and drinking problem; and when it wasn't enough she'd lash out on Nori..

Why she did do so? Because Nori was perfect; she had her dad and mom's quirk and looked exactly like him but was a girl. So that led to her growing up with a mother who would scream things like "Why couldn't you be a boy ?! You ruined my life etc..." while hitting her. When the grandparents ( again 😒) found out they put Tama in a mental hospital ( the same one as Rei where they grew quite close: Trauma bounding does wonders I guess 🤷‍♀️ ) and took Nori under their "care" ( now to note they changed Nori's name; her real name was Reina Yagi but in their ( the grandpa's ) delusion they renamed her Noriaki ).

Their "care" was intensive quirk training and abusing the poor girl mentally and physically; now to delve into her quirks she has two.

1) her mom's which is Kinetic energy absorption and control; basically if you hit her she'll absorb the energy behind the hit and enhance her attacks ( or if she falls from a certain height she'll absorb the shock from the fall); the drawback is there's a limit to how much she can absorb at once; so if she is too charged she either has to release every energy in her body and so blackout/faint or she would implode/explode.

So you guessed; Osamu ( her grandfather) would regularly hit her and make her keep it all in and discharge it all in one hit or make her do endurance training so that accumulated energy would be her only source for it. Of course, for it to work she had to have no energy/barely any strength before training; so she was malnourished, sleep-deprived, and generally exhausted for most of her childhood.

Which would later cause eating disorders, insomnia, and body dysmorphia (her grandmother Yumie was fat-phobic and the typical housewife; and made sure to plant the seed of those teachings and internalized misogyny in Nori's head and shaped her in the perfect image of a barbie doll ( she has straight dirty blonde hair and royal blue eyes; small nose, full cherry-pink lips; the only thing not "perfect" in her is the shape of her body ( and Yumie made sure to hammer it in her head for fifteen years straight ); as she is pear-shaped with a small chest * her grandma has been suggesting breast implants since she turned 12*🤢

A.N: I'm genuinely freaking out, how twisted was my mind and we aren't even halfway through this!!

So here we have a poor girl who was abused by her mom for 3 years, then was "saved" only to be brought to a place worse than hell; in which she was again abused, insulted on her appearance every day, and had to train her whole life to be ready to look "perfect" in front of the cameras and journalists, turned into a puppet for the world's entertainment.

So to go back to her second quirk; energy manipulation; she draws the source either from her first quirk or from the earth around her. Then she shapes it into different things weapons, armor, shields... [ In the future ( when she becomes a pro-hero; she can combine both her quirks so she'd be able to absorb any hit on the energy shield ]

Whew I think that's all for the basis of her past, I'll have to look through my stuff and find the rest, but if I remember correctly she is close to Momo; met her at a meeting. And Shoto: because in the past they were engaged until her father stepped in and refused it... Or I think but I don't remember shipping her with Shoto but rather Bakugou?

Anyway just have to say that 2020 me was out for blood with this character 😭😂

[yukimurah]

things below the cut about akira that are incredibly different from canon so she's actually just my oc now...

a kitsune can only take on human form as an ability learned from a certain age, usually between 50-100 years old. in their fox form, they will often place reeds, leaves or a skull over their heads. akira has a crown of leaves in her fox form, and learned this skill when she was 60 years old. the most common forms are beautiful women, young girls and the elderly. akira appears in her beautiful, young woman form. these shapes are not limited by the fox's true age or gender. a kitsune can also mimic the appearance of different people. akira is what is known as a sacred inari kitsune. inari is a sacred shinto kami (spirit) of foxes, fertility, rice, tea & sake, agriculture and general prosperity and worldly success. inari's kitsunes are pure white and act as their messengers. they possess the power to ward off evil, and they sometimes serve as guardian spirits. in addition to protecting inari shrines, they are petitioned to intervene on behalf of the locals and particularly to aid against troublesome nogitsune, those spirit foxes who do not serve inari. jewels are a common symbol of inari, and inari's kitsune are often adorned with white round balls known as hoshi no tama (ほしのたま, literal translation: star balls). they are glowing with kitsunebi (an atmospheric ghost light). these balls acts as a container for kitsune's souls. when not in human form, akira carries this ball in her mouth or on her tails, but in human form, she wears this around her neck as an amulet. misfortune will fall upon anyone who tries to steal hoshi no tama from a kitsune.

when in human form, akira possesses magic manipulation. this includes being able to create, shape, and manipulate magic. this form of arcane power allows her to achieve supernatural effects and mystic powers through use of mystical practices. such practices include rituals, spells and potions. the older a kitsune gets and the more tails it possesses, the stronger their magical abilities become. ancient kitsune have known to be capable of harnessing and achieving transcendental levels of mystical abilities, allowing them to essentially change reality however they see fit.

in her human form, akira has an otherworldly beauty about her. sometimes she can become careless, or if she drinks, some parts of the illusion of her human transformation can drop; this is when one might see her fox-fire, or the glowing of her eyes. in her fox form, akira possesses three of her nine tails, and she is pure white.

"i think you're beautiful, sarah!" eiko observes her. "your dress is so pretty, and your hair looks so smooth... i hope i can look pretty too when i grow up."

(eiko; fabullisnova -- THAT MEME U TOLD ME ABOUT)

Send “I think you’re beautiful” for my muses reaction.  ↳ @fabullisnova || eiko

soft locks the color of carnations flutter in the breeze as the princess of cornelia takes in the soft morning light. another beautiful day in grimoire and she was ever grateful that she got to spend it in the company of her ever-knowledgeable companion, eiko. sarah had learned a lot in these last few weeks about the intricacies of summoning and the two had delved deep into the libraries of cornelia to find answers about the first summoner of cornelia and how they had come to discover ragnarok, why the kingdom had been built around it and how such histories had become seemingly lost over time.

the only others outside of eiko's band of friends that they knew were capable of summoning were their jiantess friends, hauyn and reynn - sisters capable of capturing mirages and training them as their own and were a part of grimoire's ancient history as their furry rainbow tailed fox, tama, had told them one morning when she and her mortal frenemy, serafie, had come calling one day for tea.

eiko had stayed over (as was quite often when she came to visit) and it seemed that their week of discovery, adventure, and sneaking out of the castle into the great unknown-! okay, not so much that last part, but sarah had managed to sneak out of the castle with eiko and fenrir for a quick jaunt around the town as well as taking the opportunity to visit princess goblin in her own kingdom. but it seemed that their week together was nearing it's end and sarah was pained about it. she was having a lot of fun spending time with eiko and she and princess goblin seemed like they would get into all kinds of mischief together. it was… a tad scary especially when the subject of their plots involved one dashing knight in splendid, shining armor.

sarah had turned to her friend to ask her a question when eiko had said how beautiful and pretty she was. her eyes had grown large and her lips that were still about to form her question had frozen in an 'o'. eiko was still very much a young girl - sarah supposed any one to her young friend would seem so beautiful and pretty (was she really beautiful and pretty?), but she still appreciated the remark all the same. part of being royalty was taking care of yourself. it never did to look dishelved and out-of-place. one always had to look their best or else face nasty gossip and rumors, and she didn't believe that her fellow cornelians were like that but it had still been something instilled upon her in a young age - probably younger than eiko was now. she had to hold herself to higher standards. beauty and grace came naturally to her, she was told, by her mother, but sarah had sometimes wondered about that herself. sometimes she wanted to join the other girls and boys her age back then and get dirty and have adventures. of course, now as the sole ruler of cornelia, sarah was free to do whatever she so wished - within reason, of course, but… sometimes she still worried about her image and what her people would think. sometimes she wondered if they knew it was her wondering around town in disguise and pretended to ease her fears and anxiety as the older residents knew what a sheltered life she had led.

"why, thank you, eiko. it really means a lot to me, and you know," she says taking her friend's hands into her own. "you are just as beautiful and pretty, too. i am sure you will grow up into a most splendid young lady that will have the boy's going silly for your attention," she winks then. "and perhaps catch the attention of the one who's affection you seek the most?"

[angelysalt]

the time has come. MIMIR has returned to her home planet, leaving only her baby girl...

PUSSY.

meanwhile, in a sterile laboratory environment, her future mate, BUSSY, hatches from an egg. what future adventures lie before these children?

you may ask. "chives, what the fuck are you doing?" i promise there is an explaination.

i asked my friends for 5-letter names for mimir's baby, and got exactly the sort of answer you would expect.

of course, i couldn't let these beautiful suggestions pass by, so i started a poll.

and from this poll came an even more transcendent wisdom...

that's right. why should we go straight to violence? why not, in this world of horror, choose love and peace? instead of pitting them against each other, why not have PUSSY and BUSSY kiss?

and fall in love? and have a child?

so i, a completely sane person, pulled out and booted up another tamagotchi.

PUSSY won the poll, so that's the name of mimir's child. BUSSY, on the other hand, is living in a v3 shell, also from my childhood tamagotchi obsession. as you can see from the pictures, it's in worse condition than the v4.5, as i played the heck out of it. the buttons aren't as responsive, the screen's sort of dingy and flickers, and the front and back half don't quite stay together.

the last part is probably because of another relevant feature of this particular tama - it's debugged! a fun little feature of the connections, where if you take the tama apart and put some graphite over the little "debug" button, you can unlock a new function where tamagotchis can go into "hyperspeed", and you can manually unlock certain characters that aren't available in normal play. personally i don't plan to use these features on this run, but it's an interesting tidbit. i don't know much about the color generations yet (the uni is my first color tamagotchi, though i have a P's coming!) so i don't know if they have anything equivalent.

anyway. that's the story of pussy and bussy. to be transparent about my intentions, i don't presently intend to keep running the v3 after this generation... but the bit was too good to pass up, so i'm keeping it up for this.

man. two babies at the same time sure is a thing. i've been caring for them as i wrote this post - they'll be toddlers soon no doubt, and i'll have to update my log again.

Almost Chance - a wenmyeon one shot au

Junmyeon have been best friends with Wendy for a long time. He had his chance but will fate agree with it?

Ship : Wendy x Suho Genre: angst, romance, english-tagalog drabble

You were just a mere girl I met.

It was one fine day during a university event when I saw you wearing a blue dress, just talking to your peers. And by the looks of it, every head will turn around to you if they see you with that beautiful smile.

I even didn’t hold back my smile when I saw you enjoying the fair. You suddenly walked past in my direction, and I was rooted in awe when our shoulders accidentally bumped into each other.

“I’m sorry. Di ko sinasadya.” You said to me after I felt electrified by a simple touch. You gave me one last smile before continuing to walk towards your college building.

I still clearly remember how I felt that rapid thump in my chest when our gaze met. It took just a matter of seconds to realize that seeing you would leave me thinking all night about how to get your name.

And I was an idiot not to ask when I first got the chance to know you.

You were just a friend.

I didn't stop thinking about you since I saw you during the university fair. Who would have thought that we would share the same class for one semester? You entered our class late, and I will never forget how cute you look when you pouted just because our professor scolded you in front of our class.

Up until now, I still don’t know how lucky I am that day that the chair beside me was vacant for you to occupy it. I could feel my ears getting red when I heard again your voice.

“Hi. Is this seat taken?” I shook my head, blinded by your smile. “Wendy nga pala. Buti dito sa likod yung vacant seat. Nakakahiya talaga yung pagalit ni sir sakin.”

You pouted again and I couldn’t help myself but chuckle. “Uy napatawa kita. Ibig sabihin ba nyan ikaw na ang first friend ko rito sa Philo 101? Ano nga ulit name mo?”

“Junmyeon.”

You offered your hand for a shake and I gladly accepted it. Marking the years of our friendship. Marking the years of my unrequited love.

We were an almost.

I loved you for quite some time now, and you didn’t fail to remind me that the friendship we have will never change.

“You’ll always be my constant, Jun. Tama nga na naging bestfriend kita dahil never mo ko iniwan.” How I wish you never said that. How I wish you would realize that we could be more than friends.

Both of us were sitting on my apartment rooftop one night and just drinking beers while you were crying your heart out over a guy who never valued your worth. I never told you how my heart ached for you that night. I wanted to hold you tight and kiss your tears away. But again, I was a coward.

“Junmyeon, walang hiya talaga yung lalaking ‘yon. Lahat ng lalaki na yata na nakilala ko, manloloko.”

“Huwag mo lahatin, Wends. Para saan pa at naging kaibigan mo ko.”

I heard you giggle and look at me. It was pretty obvious that you were already drunk. Drunk and heartbroken. I returned your gaze, and I could feel the atmosphere change.

Maybe it was the stars that shone brightly upon your face. Or maybe it was the glimmer I saw in your eyes when you stared at me. All I knew was that the hope in my heart ignited the moment I felt your lips on mine.

We never talked about it the next day. We grew distant for a while. It was hard not to call you first. But then I’m weak for you, Wendy Shon. I didn’t have the strength to ignore you when you texted me again saying you wanted your best friend back.

And I was an idiot thinking we could be more than friends.

We are one for the books.

As I wait for you at the altar, while you are walking in the aisle and wearing a white wedding dress that suits you perfectly, I know that this will be the mark of ending all of that constant pining.

Ending the hope in my heart that someday you will return the same love I have for you.

You took my hand when you reached the altar, squeezed it tightly, and mouthed your thanks to me. And being your best friend, I smiled assuringly to you and gave your hand to the man who you will vow to love for eternity.

I was an idiot to let you go. But I am lucky to find a soulmate in you.

I was an idiot for loving my best friend. But I never regretted it.

[yoon-ji-hoo]

Happy Birthday girl!

Let's get the party started at my place!

Tama you always pick such beautiful flowers! How do you manage that?! Also I’m on my way, I am starving!
