#that is heartbreaking FRICTIONAL GAMES WHY

[z-spy]

i have seen these replies under the video of alexander saying «no, don't do that!» to daniel who is ruining pylones in orb chamber and then i realised that this is not only amusing how he desperately tries to rule the situation while daniel is compeletely MAD and would not stop just because alexander commands him to but it also looks a lot like the moment when child is grown up and their abusive parent still tries to manipulate them but now it will not work because this person HAS REALISED what kind of shit their parent did to them in their childhood

this is the literally what had happened in amnesia between daniel and alexander--

daniel only trusted alex because alexander was his father figure (because daniel would trust any older man who will show him affection lol) and dan was literally fully depended on him and could not stand up to his suspicious "ways to remove shadow far away from them"

therefore when he arrived to brennenburg and alex started to support him danny was in his childhood phase aka when he was controlled by his shitty father being a child so he could not do anything to protect himself and move anywhere from the abusive parent and had to obey BUT with his biological dad he felt much more despair and disgust because he was openly abusing him and dan knew this however alexander did it in the way so the boy could not realise- so logically daniel felt kind of sypmathy to alex seeing how the baron cared for him genuinely THIS POOR BOY COULD NOT EVEN IMAGINE HOW AWFUL WAS THE IMPACT OF THIS OLD PIECE OF SHIT so alexander continued shamelessly manipulating him until danny became compeletely insane and possesed and would obey alexander unconditionally THEN alexander knew that he has superiority over a boy and he really thought that he will always be in charge-- NO WAY

it shows how daniel was in his childish state when he was helpless dependent trusting the tales alexander was telling him but when HE FINALLY REALISED which shit was happening around him all the time then he moved into his grown-up state and felt WRATH even frustation and hate and THEN HE MIGHT UNDERSTAND THAT THE SCENARIO REPEATED and feel genuine sorrow dissapontment and spite towads alexander the man who he trusted in the man who raised him and cared for him like a true loving father would....... and daniel felt himself being used and abused by the figure who he relied on AGAIN

and this is so painfully,,

but alexander still beileved he had power to subdue daniel like an abusive parent thinks he has abylity to put down their child in any situation and any age but now the child grew up and will not listen to commands this hell giving them so now daniel understood EVERYTHING and craved revenge and he will not obey anymore

these words of alexander which has a matter then have no matter now

and by the way basically abusive parents think and say what a child have i raised when their child being mad at them or simply not doing what they have been said to AND ALEXANDER LITERALLY SAYS SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN THE END OF THE GAME I SWEAR I REMEMBER and the actual point is YES what a child YOU have raised because they usually believe they did nothing wrong and their "creation" just being ungrateful and disrespectful they just believe that this cannot be! if their creation blaming them which means it is the mistake of this parent or if their child being just like them SO DID ALEXANDER.

andd that is the end thank you for listening to my sudden monologue <3

by the way dan's father and alexander with their actually HUGE impact on their son are really alike especially in this contest--- oh godness

I couldn't stop thinking about an AU where Daniel resorts to gathering vitae again, this time to 'cure' Hazel, after his Brennenburg adventure💫, thoughts all mainly derived from this loadscreen text that tells us that Hazel is still in hospice care by the time the game's story began.

As much as I love Daniel, I don't think he really learned all that much from his experience even in the most charitable ending towards him in which he saves Agrippa. I can very, VERY easily see him slipping back into old ways if it meant saving Hazel. The most he seems to approach viewing torture as bad is when he realizes he himself no longer counts as an innocent so he can't justify killing others to save himself anymore. But killing no good, horrible, bad people to save HAZEL? Now, we're cooking with gas 😀 💀

Imagine asking Zuko to take part in an Earth Kingdom game…

One of the young boys tugged on the fabric of your robe. The attention didn’t go unnoticed as you had just finished pouring a cup of tea for a customer. The guest smiled a pleasant thank you before leaving you to turn to your small friend.

“Hi, Yun.” You chuckled when his tugs quickened for urgency. “What mischief are you up to today?”

“Will you play Rock Ball with me? My friend Baso was supposed to be on my team but he got sick.” The boy requested kindly. He was filled with such hope, learning to trust you so quickly in the short time that you were present.

You wanted to say yes in a heartbeat but the clattering of tea cups reminded you of reality.

“I’d love to but I promised Mr Mushi that I’d help here tonight.”

Yun sighed and looked at the ground, kicking a pebble sadly. The expression of heartbreak tore you in half. It was like upsetting Aang - something that you never wanted to do.

Bending down, you set the tea tray on the ground for a few moments. You raised a hand to sit below Yun’s chin and brought him to look at you.

“Hey. I might not be able to play with you but I’ll ask Lee.” You offered.

The young boy lit up brighter than any fire bending. “Really? You’ll ask your boyfriend?” He asked.

“He’s not my-” Yun wrapped his arms around you and gave the biggest hug. The argument fell flat and you returned the warm embrace.

“Of course, I’ll ask him.”

Later that evening, table service had gone quiet and you presented the offer to the disguised prince.

“Absolutely not.” Zuko refused, pulling off his apron and hanging it on the hook behind the door. 

You followed him closely as he walked around the room. “Why not?”

Pausing his steps, the young man turned. “Because I don’t want to play ‘rocks’ with a bunch of a kids.”

“Zuko, he’s been practicing really hard to prove to his father that he has what it takes to join the Earth Kingdom team.” You explained. “I figured that you’d be a good influence on him.”

Zuko turned away and headed for his room. “You thought wrong.”

You were restless that night. Tossing and turning as you wondered how you would crush the spirit of a young child. No conclusion was reached as you slipped into a dreamless sleep. 

The next morning, Zuko avoided you no more than usual. Iroh noticed an odd friction but said nothing for the moment. You wore the apron and picked up your lucky tray. Stepping out from behind the counter, you started taking orders for the long day. 

It was pleasant with regular customers stopping by and making wonderful conversation with yourself and Iroh while Zuko remained silent. As the sun set, you approached the tables by the windowsill and began to pour some fragrant jasmine tea into the cups when there were gentle tugs once again.

“Y/n.” Yun’s voice chimed happily. “Is Lee coming?”

You took in a deep breath and turned to the young boy. You were going to be quick with the bad news.

“Listen Yun, Lee’s not-”

“I’m here.” Zuko interrupted and walked over to where you both stood. 

Yun was ecstatic, his smile turning into a grin. Your eyes widened at the surprise. He had been so adamant last night about not going that you wondered what changed his mind.

The young boy hugged the disguised prince and bounced on the spot excitedly. Zuko chuckled at the affection and noticed that you hadn’t stopped watching him with admiration.

“Y/n, do we get good luck kisses?” Yun asked curiously.

Your attention refocused on the boy and you bent down to press a soft kiss on his forehead. He laughed happily and pointed to Zuko.

“Lee, next!”

Zuko’s felt his heart race and cleared his throat. “That’s not necessary.” He started but was quickly stopped when you lifted you hand to his face and kissed the corner of his mouth.

“Thank you.” You whispered.

Know your name

connie springer x blk fem reader

The lights dimmed as I sat on the stool by the bar, sipping my mocktail as I didn't plan on getting intoxicated tonight. The last poet read their piece and the audience began to snap. my right leg crossed over my left, as the friction between my finger pads caused a snapping noise melting in with the rest of the crowd. The endearing sound of Marvin Gaye's delicate voice faded into the room as You Sure Love To Ball overtook the once-tranquil space causing the audience to leave their seats.

The two guys who had been eyeing my friends approached us, and two sets of brown eyes darted to me, knowing we were here to get my mind off my recent heartbreak. I sighed and shooed them away, winking as the men led them to the floor. “We better see you dancing with someone later!” the two yelled as they disappeared into the crowd. I observed the audience and their different ways of dancing to the same song, ordering another drink in the process. Lord, the urge to order a non-virgin drink is really strong at the moment.

I nibbled on the inner corner of my bottom lip as the music changed, the intro to Know Your Name by Ne-Yo replacing the Marvin Gaye track as others found dancing partners. I scanned the floor watching strangers mingle and interact as I took a few sips out of my drink. the lights dimmed and a low screech was heard on my left, I slowly turned over to see a man who seemed a bit taller than me already looking at me. His hazelnut eyes stared deep into mine as he turned to face me, "Why're you sitting here instead of dancing?"

I rested my face in my hand and took another short sip. "Why are you bothering me instead of dancing?"

"Good point" he showcased his pearly whites, "but I wouldn't call it bothering if I wanna get to know you."

"And what if I don't wanna get to know you?"

"You don't have to, just tell me your name beautiful."

I sighed as he continued to stare at me with genuine curiosity. "My name is Shea."

"Nice to meet you, Shea."

I slightly raised my eyebrow. "You're not gonna tell me yours?"

"You said you didn't wanna get to know me."

"I change my mind hazelnut."

He chuckled and reached for my hand shaking it. "Constance."

I cackled looking at him. "you got an old man name."

His cheeks turned a bit red as he observed me. "glad I could put a smile on your face somehow."

“What do you want Constance?”

He rested his head on his forearm reaching his other hand towards mine. “I just wanna dance with you, Shea.”

“And what if I don't wanna dance with you.”

“We already played this game plus I heard your friends earlier.”

“So you were stalking me?”

“wouldn’t call it stalking if I’m interested in you plus I didn’t wanna intrude with your friends there.”

His fingers tapped the table inching closer to mine, his eyes staring deep into my own asking for permission to take my hands in his. Don’t know if im ready to put myself out there yet. Especially with everything that’s been going on lately buttt he seems like a nice guy and it’s just a dance. It's harmless if I don’t get too invested.

I stared at the man in front of me, his gray overgrown buzz cut and the piercings on his ears and nose, his eyes still looking into my own as he played with my fingers waiting for my answer. I took a deep breath intertwining my hands with his as a smile spread across his face. “glad I could put a smile on your face somehow."

He laughed as he led me to the floor. “Oh, whatever.”

Our bodies came in contact as our feet moved along the dance floor. It felt as if we were in another world as our bodies followed the rhythm of the music, our eyes never leaving one another’s. His right hand rested on my lower back, the other holding mine as my left hand rested on the back of his neck. The dim-light illuminated his eyes, adding subtle sparkles to his already captivating irises. “You're not that bad, Con.”

He slightly tilted his head, smirking in the process. “What does that mean?”

“Glad, you talked to me that's all.”

A wide smile spread across his face basically showing every single tooth in his mouth. “That’s the nicest thing you’ve said to me all night.”

My hand gently pushed his shoulder. “Im nice when i want to be.” His eyes began to move towards the side of his face. “Boy dont side-eye me.”

“I mean when you think about it you were real mean to me in the beginning.”

“That's when i didn't like you.”

A childish grin spread across his face. “So you like me now?”

My finger repeatedly dug into his chest as he began laughing as I felt my cheeks heat up. “Stop playing with me con, you’re not funny.”

“Aww, you gave me a nicknameee,” he spoke exaggerating the last word.

I rolled my eyes ignoring his antics as my friends began to dance near us. Both winking and laughing as I lost them on the floor once again. We continued to dance the night away until closing time, around two a.m. We sat at the bar watching the last group of people leave. I reached for a napkin on the table scribbling my number on it super fast before handing the note to the male next to me. I stared at the palm of his hand seeing a similar one being handed to me. I rolled my eyes and took the paper. “copycat.”

He took my hand in his as we left. “I knew you liked me.”

Taylor Swift Lyric Writing Prompts

I compiled a list of Taylor Swift lyrics organized by era that people can use as writing prompts. This can function as an ask game if you want or just a list of inspo. Most of these lean more romantic in nature, but I may eventually do one full of sad/heartbroken lyrics. Enjoy!

Tim McGraw "But in a box beneath my bed is a letter that you never read from three summers back."

Tied Together With a Smile "And no one knows that you cry, but you don't tell anyone that you might not be the golden one. And you're tied together with a smile, but you're coming undone."

Stay Beautiful "It's hard to make a conversation when he's taking my breath away."

I'm Only Me When I'm With You "And I don't try to hide my tears, my secrets, or my deepest fears. Through it all, nobody gets me like you do."

Love Story "So I sneak out to the garden to see you. We keep quiet cause we're dead if they knew, so close your eyes."

Hey Stephen "I can't help it if you look like an angel. Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain."

You Belong With Me "Oh, I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night. I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're 'bout to cry."

Jump Then Fall "I like the way I can't keep my focus. I watch you talk. You didn't notice. I hear the words, but all I can think is, 'We should be together.'"

Untouchable "Untouchable, burning brighter than the sun, and when you're close, I feel like coming undone."

The Other Side of the Door "I said, "Leave," but baby, all I want is you to stand outside my window throwing pebbles screaming, 'I'm in love with you.'"

Mine "You learn my secrets, and you figure out why I'm guarded. You say we'll never make my parent's mistakes."

Sparks Fly "Drop everything now. Meet me in the pouring rain. Kiss me on the sidewalk. Take away the pain cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile."

Enchanted "The lingering question kept me up. 2AM, who do you love? I wonder til I'm wide awake."

Electric Touch "All I know is this could either break my heart or bring it back to life. Got a feeling your electric touch could fill this ghost town up with life."

I Can See You "And we kept everything professional, but something's changed. It's something I, I like. They keep watchful eyes on us, so it's best if we move fast and keep quiet."

State of Grace "You come around, and the armor falls, pierce the room like a canon ball. Now, all we know is don't let go."

State of Grace (2) "So, you were never a saint, and I've loved in shades of wrong. We learn to live with the pain, mosaic broken hearts, but this love is brave and wild."

State of Grace (3) "These are the hands of fate. You're my Achilles heel."

Treacherous "I can't decide if it's a choice, getting swept away. I hear the sound of my own voice asking you to stay. All we are is skin and bone trained to get along. Forever going with the flow, but you're friction."

22 "We're happy, free, confused, and lonely in the best way. It's miserable and magical, oh yeah. Tonight's the night when we forget about the heartbreaks."

Stay Stay Stay "You took the time to memorize me, my fears, my hopes and dreams. I just like hanging out with you all the time. All those times that you didn't leave, it's been occurring to me I'd like to hang out with you for my whole life."

Everything Has Changed "Cause all I know is we said hello, and your eyes look like coming home. All I know is a simple name. Everything has changed. All I know is you held the door. You'll be mine, and I'll be yours. All I know since yesterday is everything has changed."

Run "I could see this view a hundred times, pale blue sky reflected in your eyes. So, give me a reason, and don't say no. And the note from the locket, you keep it in your pocket since I gave it to you. There's a heart on your sleeve. I'll take it when I leave, and hold it for you."

Out of the Woods "Looking at it now, it all seems so simple. We were lying on your couch. I remember. You took a Polaroid of us, then discovered the rest of the world was black and white. But we were in screaming color."

Out of the Woods (2) "Oh, your necklace hanging from my neck, the night we couldn't quite forget when we decided to move the furniture so we could dance. Baby, like we stood a chance, two paper airplanes flying."

Wildest Dreams "Say you'll remember me, standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset, babe. Red lips and rosy cheeks, say you'll see me again, even if it's just in your wildest dreams."

How You Get the Girl "I want you for worse or for better. I would wait forever and ever. Broke your heart, I'll put it back together."

This Love "Your kiss, my cheek. I watched you leave. Your smile, my ghost. I fell to my knees. When you're young, you just run, but you come back to what you need."

I Know Places "Something happens when everybody finds out, see the vultures circling, dark clouds. Love's a fragile little flame. It could burn out. Cause they got the cages, they got the boxes and guns. They are the hunters. We are the foxes, and we run."

Wonderland "Didn't they tell us, "Don't rush into things"? Didn't you flash your green eyes at me? Didn't you calm my fears with a Cheshire cat smile? Didn't it all seem new and exciting? I felt your arms twisting around me. It's all fun and games 'til somebody loses their mind."

Wonderland (2) "I reached for you, but you were gone. I knew I had to go back home. You searched the world for something else to make you feel like what we had, but in the end, in Wonderland, we both went mad."

You Are in Love "Morning, his place. Burnt toast, Sunday. You keep his shirt. He keeps his word, and for once, you let go of your fears and your ghosts."

"Slut!" "Everyone wants him, that was my crime. The wrong place at the right time, and I break down, then he's pulling me in. In a world of boys, he's a gentleman."

Suburban Legends "I didn't come here to make friends. We were born to be suburban legends. When you hold me, it holds me together, and you kiss me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever."

End Game "Reputation precedes me. They told you I'm crazy. I swear I don't love the drama-it loves me! And I can't let you go. Your hand print's on my soul. It's like your eyes are liquor. It's like your body is gold. You've been calling my bluff on all my usual tricks, so here's the truth from my red lips."

Don't Blame Me "My name is whatever you decide, and I'm just gonna call you mine. I'm insane, but I'm your baby. Echoes of your name inside my mind, halo hiding my obsession. I once was poison ivy, but now I'm your daisy. And baby, for you, I would fall from grace just to touch your face. If you walk away, I'd beg you on my knees to stay."

Delicate "Sometimes I wonder when you sleep, are you ever dreaming of me? Sometimes when I look into your eyes, I pretend you're mine all the damn time."

So It Goes... "And all the pieces fall right into place, getting caught up in a moment, lipstick on your face. So it goes. I'm yours to keep, and I'm yours to lose. You know, I'm not a bad girl, but I do bad things with you."

Gorgeous "You should take it as a compliment that I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk."

Gorgeous (2) "If you got a girlfriend, I'm jealous of her, but if you're single, that's honestly worse. Cause you're so gorgeous, it actually hurts."

King of My Heart "Late in the night, the city's asleep. Your love is a secret I'm hoping, dreaming, dying to keep. Change my priorities, the taste of your lips is my idea of luxury."

Dancing With Our Hands Tied "I loved you in spite of deep fears that the world would divide us, so baby, can we dance through an avalanche? And say, say that we got it. I'm a mess, but I'm the mess that you wanted."

Dress "Our secret moments in a crowded room, they got no idea about me and you. There is an indentation in the shape of you. Made your mark on me, a golden tattoo."

Call It What You Want "All my flowers grew back as thorns, windows boarded up after the storm. He built a fire just to keep me warm. All the drama queens taking swings, all the joker's dressing up as kings, they fade to nothing when I look at him."

New Year's Day "You squeeze my hand three times in the back of the taxi. I can tell that it's gonna be a long road. I'll be there if you're the toast of the town, babe, or if you strike out and you're crawling home."

Cruel Summer "I'm drunk in the back of the car, and I cried like a baby coming home from the bar. Said, "I'm fine," but it wasn't true. I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you, and I snuck in through the garden gate every night that summer just to seal my fate. And I screamed for whatever it's worth, "I love you." Ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"

Lover "And there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you, dear. Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?"

Lover (2) "My heart's been borrowed, and yours has been blue. All's well that ends well to end up with you. Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover."

The Archer "I've been the archer. I've been the prey. Who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay?"

I Think He Knows "Lyrical smile, indigo eyes, hand on my thigh, we can follow the sparks. I'll drive."

Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince "We're so sad. We paint the town blue. Voted most likely to run away with you."

Paper Rings "I want to drive away with you. I want your complications too. I want your dreary Mondays. Wrap your arms around me, baby boy."

Cornelia Street "You hold my hand on the street, walk me back to that apartment years ago, we were just inside. Barefoot in the kitchen, sacred new beginnings that became my religion."

False God "But we might just get away with it. Religion's in your lips, even if it's a false god. We'd still worship. We might just get away with it. The alter is my hips, even if it's a false god."

Afterglow "It's so excruciating to see you low. Just wanna lift you up and not let you go. This ultraviolet morning light below tells me this love is worth the fight."

ME! "And when we had that fight out in the rain, you ran after me and called my name. I never wanna see you walk away."

It's Nice to Have a Friend "Light pink sky, up on the roof, sun sinks down, no curfew. Twenty questions, we tell the truth. You've been stressed out lately? Yeah, me too. Something gave you the nerve to touch my hand."

Daylight "And I can still see it all in my mind. All of you, all of me intertwined. I once believed loved would be black and white, but it's golden."

All of the Girls You've Loved Before "Your past and mine are parallel lines. Stars all aligned, and they intertwined."

cardigan "Vintage tee, brand new phone. High heels on cobblestones. When you are young, they assume you know nothing."

seven "Sweet tea in the summer, cross your heart, won't tell no other, and though I can't recall your face, I still got love for you. Your braids like a pattern, love you to the moon and to Saturn."

august "Your back beneath the sun, wishing I could write my name on it. Will you call when you're back at school? I remember thinking I had you."

invisible string "A string that pulled me out of all the wrong arms right into that dive bar. Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire. Chains around my demons, wool to brave the seasons. One single thread of gold tied me to you."

betty "Yeah, I showed up at your party. Will you have me? Will you love me? Will you kiss me on the porch in front of all your stupid friends? If you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it? Will it patch your broken wings? I'm only seventeen. I don't know anything, but I know I miss you."

peace "But I'm a fire, and I'll keep your brittle heart warm if your cascade ocean wave blues come. All these people think love's for show, but I would die for you in secret. The devil's in the details, but you've got a friend in me. Would it be enough, if I could never give you peace?"

the lakes "I want auroras and sad prose. I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet cause I haven't moved in years, and I want you right here."

willow "Life was a willow, and it bent right to your wind. Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in as if you were a mythical thing, like you were a trophy or a champion ring, and there was one prize I'd cheat to win."

long story short "Actually, I always felt I must look better in the rearview. Missing me at the golden gates they once held the keys to. When I dropped my sword, I threw it in the bushes and knocked on your door. And we live in peace, but if someone comes at us, this time, I'm ready."

long story short (2) "No more keeping score, now I just keep you warm. No more tug of war, now I just know there's more. No more keeping score, now I just keep you warm, and my waves meet your shore ever and evermore."

long story short (3) "And he's passing by, rare as the glimmer of a comet in the sky. And he feels like home, if the shoe fits, walk in it everywhere you go."

Lavender Haze "Meet me at midnight."

Lavender Haze (2) "Starin' at the ceiling with you. Oh, you don't ever say too much, and you don't really read into my melancholia."

Maroon "When the morning came, we were cleaning incense off your vinyl shelf cause we lost track of time again. Laughing with my feet in your lap, like you were my closest friend. "How'd we end up on the floor anyway?" You say, "Your roommate's cheap-ass screw-top rosé, that's how." I see you every day now."

Snow on the Beach "This scene feels like what I once saw on a screen. I searched aurora borealis green. I've never seen someone lit from within, blurring out my periphery."

Midnight Rain "My town was a wasteland, full of cages, full of fences, pageant queens and big pretenders, but for some, it was paradise."

Labyrinth "It only feels this raw right now, lost in the labyrinth of my mind. Break up, break free, break through, break down. You would break your back to make me break a smile."

Labyrinth (2) "Uh-oh, I'm falling in love."

Sweet Nothing "I spy with my little tired eye, tiny as a firefly, a pebble that we picked up last July down deep inside your pocket. We almost forgot it. Does it ever miss Wicklow sometimes?"

Sweet Nothing (2) "And the voices that implore, "You should be doing more." To you, I can admit that I'm just too soft for all of it."

Mastermind "Once upon a time, the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned. You and I ended up in the same room at the same time."

Paris "I'm so in love that I might stop breathing, drew a map on your bedroom ceiling."

Paris (2) "I wanna brainwash you into loving me forever. I wanna transport you to somewhere the culture's clever. Confess my truth in swooping, sloping cursive letters."

Glitch "We were supposed to be just friends."

↬   RED  (TAYLOR’S VERSION)  ( 2021 )  by  taylor  swift.

pt.  i,   lyrics  that  made  me  sob  on  the  floor  at  2  am,  taken  from  or  inspired  by  the  lyrical  masterpiece  that  is  red  (tv).

+   feel  free  to  change  pronouns  /  roles  !

STATE  OF  GRACE.

‘  we  fall  in  love  until  it  bleeds,  or  hurts,  or  fades  in  time.  ’

‘  you  come  around  and  your  armor  falls.  ’

‘  this  is  a  state  of  grace.  ’

‘  this  is  the  worthwhile  fight.  ’

‘  love  is  a  ruthless  game  unless  you  play  it  good  and  right.  ’

‘  this  is  the  golden  age  of  something  good  and  right  and  real.  ’

‘  you’re  my  achilles’  heel.  ’

‘  so  you  never  were  a  saint.  ’

‘  i  loved  in  shades  of  wrong.  ’

RED.

‘  loving  you  is  like  trying  to  change  my  mind  once  i’m  already  flying  through  the  free  fall.  ’

‘  it’s  like  the  colors  in  autumn,  so  bright  just  before  they  lose  it  all.  ’

‘  losing  you  was  blue  like  i’ve  never  known.  ’

‘  forgetting  you  is  like  trying  to  know  somebody  i’ve  never  met.  ’

‘  remembering  you  comes  in  flashbacks,  and  echoes.  ’

‘  i  tell  myself  it’s  time  now,  gotta  let  go.  ’

‘  moving  on  from  you  is  impossible  when  i  still  see  it  all  in  my  head.  ’

‘  regretting  him / her / them  is  like  wishing  you’d  never  found  out  that  love  could  be  that  strong.  ’

‘  that’s  why  you’re  spinning  ‘round  in  my  head,  it  comes  back  to  me  burning  red.  ’

TREACHEROUS.

‘  put  your  lips  close  to  mine  as  long  as  they  don’t  touch.  ’

‘  i  can’t  decide  if  it’s  a  choice:  getting  swept  away.  ’

‘  i  hear  the  sound  of  my  own  voice  asking  you  to  stay.  ’

‘  all  we  are  is  skin  and  bone  trained  to  get  along.  ’

‘  i’m  forever  going  with  the  flow,  but  you’re  friction.  ’

‘  your  name  has  echoed  through  my  mind  and  i  just  think  you  should  know.  ’

‘  nothing  safe  is  worth  the  drive  and  i  will  follow  you  home.  ’

‘  this  hope  is  treacherous.  ’

‘  this  daydream  is  dangerous.  ’

I  KNEW  YOU  WERE  TROUBLE.

‘  i  guess  you  didn’t  care,  and  i  guess  i  liked  that.  ’

‘  when  i  fell  hard  you  took  a  step  back  without  me.  ’

‘  i  bet  it  never  ever  occurred  to  you.  ’

‘  i  can’t  say  hello  to  you  and  risk  another  goodbye.  ’

‘  we  made  quite  a  mess,  babe.  ’

‘  we’re  probably  better  off  this  way.  ’

‘  i  confess,  that  in  my  dreams  you’re  touching  my  face.  ’

‘  you’re  asking  me  to  stay.  ’

‘  i  hope  sometimes  you  wonder  about  me.  ’

WE  ARE  NEVER  EVER  GETTING  BACK  TOGETHER.

‘  you’ll  hide  away  and  find  some  peace  of  mind.  ’

‘  you’ll  call  me  up  again  tonight.  ’

‘  i  used  to  think  that  we  were  forever.  ’

I saw a post questioning how fulfilled Devi would be in a relationship with Paxton vs a relationship with Ben where he's more suitable for her. What do you think? Do you think Devi and Paxton are 'too different' to work?

Thanks for sending this!

I totally disagree. I’m gonna assume by “more suitable” they mean they have similar aspirations, personalities and interests. Daxton have a different dynamic and I’d argue a better foundation for a meaningful relationship. 

a) Honesty and trust

Daxton opened up to each other in way they haven’t to others (Mohan’s passing, Paxton’s past and aspirations etc) and hold each other and themselves accountable. They own up to their mistakes, apologise and strive to do better. Their relationship has always been about growth. It started with Devi propositioning Paxton as a distraction from her grief. Throughout the show, Devi’s desperate for a boyfriend, even if it means settling because she’s insecure about being unloveable (“unfuckable”) so she gets what “she deserves.” But in the S2 finale Devi’s honest about her wants and they don’t align with Paxton’s so they break up. She’s maturing and putting herself first, even if it means letting go of a boy she’s had a crush on forever. Paxton processes his emotions and concludes that she’s worth a hypothetical heartbreak. So he chases after her because she’s the only girl he wants.

Them getting together was possible because they’re able to forgive themselves and each other. Daxton don’t hold grudges and grow together. They share similar qualities and values which trumps academic excellence.

b) Romance & friendship

Daxton fancy each other and are willing to take risks and put in the extra effort. They enjoy each other’s company, including how different their personalities are. Devi’s a certified hothead who punches first and asks questions later. She wears her heart on her sleeve and is super endearing. Paxton’s more relaxed but seems to be the brooding type. He has a big heart and is an introvert, bottles up his emotions and ignores people when hurt. He’s charmed by Devi who’s nothing like his existing entourage and he gravitates towards that. She’s bigger than life, silly, smart, caring etc! They’ve both made mistakes but not with the intent of hurting the other and they forgive each other. The duality of Paxton and Devi makes for a relationship that’s strife with novelty and excitement. Who wants to date their carbon-copy? Where’s the variety? The richness?

c) Motivation & support

An obvious example is Devi motivating Paxton to go the extra mile. They push themselves out of their comfort zone by being held accountable and bettering themselves (see a).

They’re not in competition because of different social circles/interests/temperaments which results in there being less friction. You’re not trying to one-up each other (even unknowingly) which makes for a healthier partnership. There’s no constant push-and-pull which gets exhausting fast and someone doesn’t always have to compromise. Devi put her foot down in the finale because she and Paxton had opposite expectations but I feel like with “smaller” differences, she’d be more inclined to give in. She talked about Brown women having to sacrifice more and I see Devi giving in, but not because of that. She’s a loud vibrant kid, the antithesis of traditionally demure Tamil girls. But she had her self-esteem eroded for years at school hence why she desperately wanted any boy to like her. So I’m happy she’s with someone who unconditionally supports of her and cherishes all facets of her. She doesn’t have to cut herself down or act softer to be loved.

d) Having fun

Not to negate what I’ve just said but they’re kids in their first relationship. Let them explore that and enjoy themselves without there being a transformative aspect to it! They have fun together – played video games, candy wrapper talks, banter, make-out sessions etc. They can share their existing hobbies or find new ones together. Even if they don’t share similar hobbies, they’ll listen to the other gush about their interests because they love to see them happy.

In conclusion, saying a boy is more suitable because of similar interests and personalities is quite ignorant. Daxton click together and enjoy each other’s company. They better themselves and enrich each other’s lives through their differences. Paxton is more than suitable for Devi, even when S2 made him OOC.

Requested by: @beiahadid

Warnings: Smut (18+), a bit of angst only in the beginning

AN: Hopefully this is what you wanted I had fun writing it!

Word Count: 1.9k

Usually Y/N would be spending this time with her boyfriend, Draco. But he broke up with her a few months ago and has a thing going on with Pansy Parkinson.

Ever since then Y/N has been trying to figure out why he broke up with her. She first thought it was his parents but his mother seemed to love Y/N. His father didn’t really care so she assumed it wasn’t a problem.

Y/N asked him after a month of being broken up and Draco told her ‘I only wanted you for sex’. Which really upset Y/N.

Draco was Y/N’s first love and her first time which made it more and more heartbreaking.

And for a month Y/N dragged herself to classes and crying whenever she was alone or something reminded her of Draco. But Y/N’s roommate decided to do something about it.

Her friend, Daphne Greengrass, told her to get over him. At first Y/N decided against but a thought came to Y/N. This could make him jealous like the way he made her jealous.

Daphne at first thought Y/N should decide against it. But Y/N knew Draco would crack and it would be a sight to see.

So for the next month Y/N has been talking to a fellow Slytherin of hers, Blaise Zabini. At first he didn’t like Y/N’s flirting due to being Dracos friend but he warmed up to Y/N when she explained why she was doing it.

Blaise told Y/N that Draco really did love her but she ignored it not wanting to her about Draco.

So one night at a Slytherin party that Y/N got an invite to she decided to make it more apparent.

Everyone was around dancing, making out on the couch or talking to one another. Y/N was walking around wondering where Blaise was and saw him sitting on a chair drinking some fire whiskey.

Y/N smirked when she saw that Pansy was sitting on Dracos lap in a chair not far from Blaise. Y/N sauntered over to Blaise and sat on his lap receiving a surprised look from Blaise.

Y/N flipped her hair over her shoulder and smirked at Dracos reaction. She saw him in peripheral vision glaring at her while Pansy started to kiss his neck.

“What’re you doing here love,” Blaise asked putting one of his hands on Y/N’s hips.

“Wanted to congratulate you on the game,” Y/N whispered in his ear. The party was for a quidditch game they had with Gryffindor.

“Wasn’t all me,” Blaise muttered Y/N frowned when Draco leaned in to kiss Pansy.

“I know I just don’t think you get the appreciation you deserve,” Y/N bit her lip as her face was getting closer and closer to Blaises.

“Hmm is that what it is,” Blaise replied knowingly. He knew the game Y/N was playing.

“Yes,” Y/N closed the space between her and Blaise and kissed him. Blaise knew how much this meant to her so he kissed Y/N back.

Y/N moved her lips along with his as he squeezed her waist and she looked to see Draco with jealousy writing all over him.

Y/N smirked into the kiss as she took a breather before diving back as she grabbed his hand and brought it to her breast. Blaise was confused at first but eventually starting groping and squeezing her as she let out moans into the kiss.

Y/N felt someone tugging herself off Blaises lap and when she stood up she saw Draco standing there with an angry expression on his face.

“What’s wrong Draco,” Y/N asked innocently.

Instead of responding Draco grabbed her hand dragging her to his room which she knew all to well.

“What do you want Draco,” Y/N snapped as she tugged her arm away from the angry boy.

“What do you think you were doing,” Draco snarled his face full of anger as he stared at the girl.

“I’m only doing what you were doing,” Y/N told him referring to Pansy. “You flaunt your relationship with Pansy so I thought I might move on since you don’t wanna pleasure me anymore,” She shrugged.

“You think he can do what I can do,” Draco smirked as he closed the gap between him and Y/N. Draco put his hands on her waist.

“I dunno he seemed to be doing pretty fine,” Y/N noted as his fingers went up and down her dress she was wearing. Y/N couldn’t deny that she could feel herself get more and more wet.

“Hmmm,” Draco hummed as he put his fingers under the dress trailing his fingers along her thighs. “Don’t sounds to sure of yourself love,” He whispered in her ear as he kissed her neck.

“What do you want Draco,” Y/N whispered as his fingers trailed over her panties. It was pretty dark in the room so she couldn’t see him which made the anticipation even more exciting.

“To prove I’m the only one who knows how to please you,” Draco bit her ear lobe as he started to rub her clit over the panties.

Y/N let out a moan as he rubbed hard and long strokes over her clit. She hasn’t been touched like this since the last time Dracos touched her.

Draco removed his hand which made Y/N let out a whine of disappointment. He pulled her to the couch and laid her down and kissed her.

Draco used his hand to pull her dress to her stomach as Draco kept kissing her. Y/N kissed him back as his tongue entered her mouth.

While distracting her with his tongue as Draco moved his mouth to her neck, his fingers danced along her panties and pulled them off then she noticed. Y/N helped him as he threw the soaked panties across the room.

Y/N let out moans as Draco sucked on her neck creating hickeys. His fingers danced to her pussy where Y/N could feel her self getting more and more wet.

Draco squeezes her thigh as his thumb draws a figure eights in her clit. His movements were light and fast.

As his face was buried in her neck Y/N lets out moans as his fingers kept pleasing her.

“Do you think he can do this,” Draco whispered in her ear. For a while it was quiet besides her moans and the wet noise he made while rubbing her clit.

“W-what,” Y/N asked breathlessly as his thumb kept going on her clit.

“Would he be able to please you like this,” Draco repeated his thumb halting as he had to repeat the question.

“Draco please,” Y/N whined bucking her hips trying to get some friction her clit.

“Answer the question,” Draco demanded as Y/N’s pussy throbs without Dracos hands on her.

“No,” Y/N whispers answering his questions which makes Draco smirks.

“Good girl,” Draco praises Y/N as he moves down her body and kisses the inside of her thigh as the moans return.

Dracos tongue darts to lick at her clit making her let out a loud moan as she grasps the couch in pleasure. Draco continues to lap at her swollen clit.

“Draco,” Y/N moans out as her fingers grasp his hair in pleasure.

Draco brings his hand to her pussy entrance and circles the wet hole with his middle and index finger entering.

“God,” Y/N moans as Draco slams his fingers in and out of her pussy. He curls his fingers to her g spot making Y/N moan louder.

His fingers rub her g spot as his tongue suck and pull at her clit.

Draco removes his mouth through her clit and looks up at Y/N. She looks so gorgeous when he pleasures he thinks to himself.

Y/N’s are closed as she arched her back in pleasure.

“Tell me how it feels,” Draco asks as his breath hits her clit making her whine. He stops his fingers when she doesn’t answer him.

“Yes it feels so good please don’t stop,” Y/N answers pleading as she tries to ride his fingers.

“Better than Blaise would’ve been,” Draco asks curling his fingers hitting her g spot wanting an answer.

“Definitely,” Y/N answers him.

Dracos mouth returns to her clit sucking at this time as his fingers slam in and out of her.

Y/N closes her eyes and tugs on his hair as she feels her orgasm about to come. Y/N clenched around his fingers and he knew she was going to cum around his fingers any minute.

“Cum Y/N,” Draco demands against her clit. Y/N lets out one loud moan as she cums on his fingers. Y/N feels herself twitching and saw starts when she finally came.

“Feel better love,” Draco teases by cleaning up some of her cum which makes Y/N whine. He climbs up jet body and finally reaches her face where he can kiss her.

“Definitely a stress reliever,” Y/N laughs as Draco smirks against her neck.

Y/N could feel Dracos boner against her thigh as he kisses her neck. She reaches for his belt and unbutton his pants starting to feel herself get more wet.

“You sure you want to love,” Draco asks as he puts his hands on hers.

“Yes Draco I want you to fuck me please,” Y/N begs as she rubs herself against his boner. Draco takes a sharp inhale of breath as feels himself get harder and harder.

Draco pulls his shirt pants and boxers off as Y/N works to get her dress off. She didn’t need to worry about a bra since she didn’t wear one.

Draco uses his hand to drag his cock along her wet folds and rubs the tip against her clit. Y/N lets out a whimper as he rubs against the swollen nub.

“You want me,” Draco asks with a teasing smirk. Y/N nods and Draco says “Beg.”

“Draco please fuck me,” Y/N starts to beg as she bucks her hips up go get friction. “I’ve missed you and your cock so much please Draco,” Y/N whimpers.

Draco brings his cock to her entrance as he slams into her making her cry out. He holds her hips down as he continues to fuck her.

Y/N cries out as he hits her g spot making her clench harder then before which makes Draco let out a groan.

“I’ve missed your pussy love,” Draco pants in her ear as he continues to pull out of her and slam back in making moan every time.

Draco drags his thumb to her clit to rub the nub and when does Y/N moans really loud.

“Draco,” Y/N moans arching her back into his chest bucking her hips up to his trying to meet his thrusts.

“You gonna cum for me love,” Draco continues to thrust into her still hitting her g spot while his fingers rub fast circles on her clit.

“Yes oh god please,” Y/N whimpers as he fastens his pace.

“Cum, cum all over my cock,” Draco encourages her and with one swipe to her clit and one thrust to her g spots makes her see stars as she clenches and moans loudly.

Draco moans she clenches around him making let his load into her.

“That was good wasn’t it,” Draco asks as he brushes hair out of her face.

“Very good.”

Rating Versions of Harry Osborn: Updated

Wanted to redo this post with a more comprehensive and inclusive list of Harrys

616 Comics: 

Just such a good and complex character. The OG Harry. His relationship with Peter just adds so much depth to every Green Goblin arc because of the inherent conflict of Peter knowing he needs to take down Norman Osborn, but not wanting to hurt or lose his best friend. (If you’ve read Kindred no you haven’t.) He’s still... ugly... I’m sorry 616 Harry... I love you so much but they did you dirty... Some artists do their best with what they have but... I’m not a big fan of western comic style in general so that doesn’t help. Has three failed marriages by the time he’s 30 because he’s gay and deeply closeted.  8/10

Spider-Man the Animated Series (1994):

The Harry plotline in this show reeeeally doesn’t feel earned, because the first time we see Harry having an active role in the show, he asks Peter to move in with him because Norman wants him to have a responsible studious roommate  (a detail from the comics I was EXTREMELY excited to see play out), and Peter comments that they barely know each other. Ultimately they live together for all of one day before Peter decides to move back in with Aunt May. The next time we see Harry, MJ calls him Peter’s best friend, despite the fact that we haven’t seen Peter hanging out with—or even MENTIONING—Harry since the last episode when they were basically strangers. Really it feels like he’s just there to cause romantic drama as the guy MJ graciously settles for when she gives up on Peter. I found the whole goblin plotline kind of boring and lacking in depth.  3/10

Raimi Trilogy:

I was never interested in Raimi Harry until after I started liking and exploring other versions of Harry, because I just thought he was kinda a shit friend. He’s a pretty strong character overall, but his motivations aren’t as obvious. He’s torn between his love of Peter as his best friend, and his bitterness towards Peter for being the man his father wished he was. I don’t think Raimi Harry really wanted MJ, he just wanted to get back at Peter in a way by taking someone that HE loved. However I feel like his characterization kind of sways back and forth between sympathetic and not depending on how he’s written in the scene, and it disappoints me that the thing that gets him to stop tormenting Peter is the butler telling him out of nowhere that Norman died from his own blade, rather than any real character development on his part. 6/10

Spectacular Spider-Man:

I still haven’t watched all of this show because I... can’t STAND this version of Peter... but I’ve watched many clips with this boy and he’s just... so sweet... He only wants to be loved and keeps getting his heart broken. Deserves better. On everything. He deserves a better father, a better best friend, better love interests, everything. I do really enjoy the way they incorporated 616 Harry’s drug abuse into this show with the Globulin Green, it was a very clever way to incorporate that aspect of his character, but tone it down for younger viewers. I’ve watched the scene of him getting “unmasked” as the Green Goblin about a million times it’s very good. 8/10 

Ultimate Spider-Man:

I love him. Most people fear drifting apart from those close to us, so watching Harry struggle with the new and increasing distance between him and Peter as Peter seemingly makes new, “better” friends is downright heartbreaking. Especially when he overhears Sam implying that Peter only hangs out with him for his money which is something he’s clearly experienced a lot. (Seriously Sam what the fuck.) I also love his struggle with Venom throughout the series as a metaphor for his anger and bitterness, it’s never truly gone even when they work hard to remove it. It’s always there to bubble back up under extreme amounts of stress, especially when Norman is involved. (Also this isn’t a Norman review, but USM Norman is the only version of Norman Osborn that has rights and he works hard to be the father Harry deserves.) Had an honest to God meet-cute with Peter like come on???? Its unfortunate how much they cut back Harry’s role in the third and fourth season, I really would have loved to see more of him. Threw a party specifically so he could ignore Peter to his face because he was jealous and I respect that level of pettiness. 9/10

Spider-Man: The New Animated Series

I didn’t think it was possible to create an uglier Harry than 90s Harry but this blonde, fuck-boy lookin creepass came and proved me wrong. Who the FUCK is this?? Doesn’t have any recognizable characteristics of Harry Osborn besides being rich and hating Spider-Man. Also just... look at him. I wouldn’t trust this man anywhere NEAR my drink at a party. #NotMySon -3/10

The Amazing Spider-Man:

He’s okay. I think he has some very emotional scenes and good chemistry with Peter, but it’s dampened by the fact that he wasn’t present in the first film and had to share the second with like two other main plot lines. Ultimately ends up being the least sympathetic version of Harry Osborn because he became the original Green Goblin and killed Gwen, rather than following in his father’s footsteps. That’s not to say he’s a completely unsympathetic character. He has a strong motivator in his fear of death, and I do think the choice they made for his character were interesting and could have developed really well, but they didn’t get the chance since the franchise was dropped. 5/10

PS4 Spider-Man:

ABSOLUTELY ADORE HIM. WISH WE GOT MORE OF HIM. HAVING YOUR EXPECTATIONS OF HARRY OSBORN BROKEN AS YOU SNEAK AROUND NORMAN’S PENTHOUSE AND LEARN THAT HE’S BEEN SECRETLY STRUGGLING WITH A GENETIC DISEASE HE’S BEEN HIDING FROM HIS BEST FRIENDS FOR YEARS WAS -chef’s kiss- GENIUS. PLEASE GIVE US A SECOND GAME WITH VENOM HARRY. 10/10

Marvel’s Spider-Man (2017):

Still easily my favorite version of Harry Osborn. When I first began watching the show I was startled by their decision to make Harry a science genius like Peter because it was so different from their usual dynamic, and many people who aren’t fans of the show point to this as something they dislike. But I actually ended up really loving the decision. It gives a different flavor to Harry in how he reacts to the events of the show and how we interpret his character traits, while still being very inherently Harry Osborn. Harry is jealous of Peter, he loves him dearly, but there’s always this ember of bitter envy ready to burst into anger whenever the plot creates friction between them. This is one of the defining traits of their relationship and in most versions it’s not hard to understand why. Peter has what Harry wants. He’s intelligent, he has potential, and most importantly he’s loved. Peter is the son Harry knows Norman wishes he had, and that creates a wedge between them. Marvel’s Spider-Man changes this dynamic. Harry can easily stand toe-to-toe with Peter in terms of intelligence, and in fact they often work together to create things or solutions Peter couldn’t have come up with on his own. That initial wedge between them isn’t there, creating a very endearing and loving friendship that we know is doomed to sour because it isn’t enough. MSM Harry could be the person Norman wants him to be, and that places the full weight of his father’s impossibly high expectations on his shoulders, always within reach but never quite achievable. So it makes a lot more sense why Peter initially has a low guard towards Norman (as opposed to some other series where Peter seems oddly dismissive of Harry’s justified complaints) and Harry’s own steadfast loyalty to his father. On the surface Norman seems like a perfectly loving parent, he encourages his son, he created an entire school for him when he was wrongfully accused of sabotage, it’s only when you start to dig deeper into their relationship that you see the subtle manipulations and the issues Harry has from constantly chasing his father’s approval. This creates a Harry who is desperate for validation and extremely sensitive to rejection, which colors his relationship with Peter throughout the show. I’m still mad he got nerfed in the second and third seasons because Disney is homophobic. TLDR: I may be biased ... Infinity/10

MCU:

Where is he? Who knows? Man missing in action.  ?????/10

[piratekane]

ok but whats the story on Lucy and Kate? I thought they were a slow burn but they already started the show as exes? The kisses are flashbacks? Why did they broke up? I'm curious and clearly don't watch the show lol

Hey! I’m so glad you asked. Let me (try to) lay it out for you. I suppose these are spoilers if you haven’t seen the show? Anyway, Lucy and Kate are ex… something now. At the start of the season, in the pilot, they kiss at Kate’s apartment but state that they can’t “do this again” implying that they’ve hooked up at least once - though I’d bet it’s more than once. As the season has gone on, we’ve seen them dance around each other and then kiss! There was no real commitment to a relationship, and Kate wanted it to be between them. It caused a little friction, but Lucy agreed to it and they seemed to be enjoying each other’s company for a bit. They even went on a out-of-their-apartments-date in 110! And Kate wanted to go on another! But then (double spoiler, I guess?) Lucy got a big assignment at work and went to Kate’s to excitedly tell her about it, only to find out that Kate’s girlfriend from DC was there. This surprised everyone - including Kate who didn’t realize they were still dating. Episode 111 is phenomenal and angsty but it ends with Lucy telling Kate that whatever they had is over. And now (ep 112 until now) we’re on the train to pining-and-angst town, baby - neither of them are clearly over each other as shown by all the longing looks and that face each of them make when the other isn’t watching. And as the season winds down, they get better and better. I’m buckling up for the long game and I can’t wait.

Definitely worth the watch if you love a main wlw couple AND ALSO top-notch found family tropes, competent women, a diverse cast, heartbreak, and fantastically structured television.

chapter 2: revelations

Summary: Does Iwaizumi have a thing for setters or do setters have a thing for Iwaizumi?

“Maybe Iwa-kun does have a thing for grey hair,” Sugawara muses, the tip of his index finger circling the rim of his drink. He’s got that signature sly smirk across the very lips that locked with Hajime's a decade ago. 

“Oh my God.” 

Hajime is seriously considering begging Oikawa to jump-serve a volleyball to his head and knock him clean out just so they can all stop having this conversation - ‘Hell, Tooru’s strong as hell now. Might knock the entire memory of this night right out of my brain, for good.’ 

“Hey, I just made out with him - and possibly gave him his gay awakening. But I wasn’t the one who convinced him to change his career.”

“Oh my God.”

“Wait, what are you - ”

“Daichi, baby, seriously, you need to go see that doctor. I am actively concerned about you developing early-onset Alzheimer's," Sugawara says, tucking a strand of Sawamura's hair behind his ear, his impish smirk melting into a fond smile, "Does Shiratorizawa ring any bells?”

“Hey, I have my own life to worry about! I’m not gonna keep track of someone else’s love life - no offense, Iwaizumi-san.”

“Hey, non-taken. Please, never think about my love life.”

Much to Hajime’s horror, Daichi’s expression turns contemplative, “Wait, actually, though -”

“Fuck -”

“… Grey hair, Shiratorizawa...” Daichi snaps his fingers and points his index at Iwaizumi with a much-too-proud smile on his face, completely unaware of the man’s rising irritation. “Yes, right! Iwaizumi, didn’t you..?” 

“Ugh, God, that one,” injects Oikawa. 

Hajime feels the vein on his forehead throb at Oikawa’s tone, “Kawa... why are you so shitty.” 

“Well, sorry, if I don’t like the edge-lord that busted my entire future!” 

“Oikawa… You are literally at the Olympics… for the second time...” 

“Yeah, with you on the opposing side,” Oikawa says with a closed throat, sliding out of the booth, and heading off to the direction of the entrance doors.

Hajime sighs.

 *

 Their loss to Shiratorizawa is soul-crushing - it always is. 

‘Always’ - that’s the most crushing thing, Hajime despairs, ‘We always lose to that school.’ And Hajime feels the blow, of course, he's devastated, but it’s not personal, hell, it’s not even for his team - ‘God, I’m such a shitty Vice-Captain.’  

No, the absolute heartbreak he feels is for Tooru.

Hajime loves his team, he believes every single member has outrageous talent, but he knows that all their abilities combined, including his own, wouldn’t even hold a candle to Oikawa’s blinding torch.

Shiratorizawa is a school for rising champions, Abo Johsai is a school for kids with talent.  

Oikawa Tooru is on a completely different level, it's a fact - he outranks his own team. It keeps Hajime up at night because he knows that if Oikawa had a team that matched his talent and ability, he would never have to experience such consistent defeat. 

In times like these, Hajime feels shameful and useless, ‘How long will I hold Oikawa back?’

Hajime knows Oikawa. He knows he’s the real reason Oikawa chose Abo Josai, that because Hajime wasn’t good enough to get into Shiratorizawa, Oikawa shackled himself to a team that weighs more than he can carry. It reminds Hajime of those free-body-diagrams from physics class that Oikawa had to explain to him ten times over; Oikawa is the upward force, striving for victory at the speed of light, Hajime is the opposing frictional force, and Abo Johsai is plain gravity times mass times sine (or was it cosine?). Hajime only managed to scrape a B- in that class, so the only answer he can give this problem is that Oikawa isn't going anywhere, any time soon. 

A harsh slap to his back snaps Hajime out of his thoughts. He jumps with the force of it and doesn’t even have to turn his head to know who’s hand is laying firmly between his shoulder blades. He keeps his eyes downcast, but Oikawa - a true Captain - doesn’t force Hajime to look at him when he firmly whispers, “Next time, Iwa-chan. We’ll get ‘em.”

Their coach takes the team for ramen, gives them a speech about being proud and working hard, all while Oikawa is making faces at Hajime from across the table and, slowly, Hajime begins to let himself smile.

Halfway through dinner, Hajime feels his phone vibrate in his pocket. Thinking it’s his mother asking when he’ll be home, Hajime turns on the lockscreen and sees it’s an Instagram notification. He unlocks his phone and swipes down his Notifications - Hajime had to reset his phone notifications to conceal messages ever since becoming friends with Sugawara Koushi because the boy has zero filter and he doesn’t need his mom accidentally seeing messages with eggplant and squirting emojis, encouraging Hajime to make ‘his move’, whatever that means. 

EITA (@notsemisemi) has requested to follow you.

Now, Hajime is confused. He doesn’t even remember the last time he posted a picture on Instagram - he only really made the account because Oikawa started crying about, “Iwa-chan, I want to tag you in this picture, people should know that you’re capable of smiling! Everyone else has an Instagram, let me make you one, you won’t even have to do anything!” - so he’s not really sure how or why a random person requested to follow him.

'Maybe it's a spam account?'

He looks closely at the username and tries to think if he knows anyone with that name. When nothing comes to mind, he clicks on the person’s account and is met with very aesthetically angsty selfies of a grey-haired boy with sharp eyebrows and deep collarbones. ‘

He’s kind of…’ Hajime tries to think of the right words. He wants to say ‘pretty’, but that doesn’t feel right - Sugawara is pretty, Oikawa is pretty. Pretty people are soft and round and peppy. This guy is… 

‘Hot.’ 

And weirdly familiar. 

He elbows Matsukawa, who’s sitting on his right, and turns his phone screen towards the boy, “Do you know this guy?”

“Hmph?” Matsukawa’s lazy eyes roam over his screen and he swallows his food before speaking, “Yeah, isn’t that the reserve setter? He came in as a sub when Oikawa hit Shiratorizawa’s main setter.” 

Like a self-conscious self-absorbed bat, whenever Oikawa’s name is merely uttered, the boy in question will hear it, no matter what he's doing, “Eh? Oikawa hit who? I swear, it couldn't have been me, I’m a pacifist!” And he proceeds to put his hands up in surrender. 

The lightbulb goes off in Hajime's head, “Oh! When Oikawa jump-served the ball at that small guy’s face? With the uneven bangs?” He makes a downward sloping motion across his forehead. 

“Yeah, that one,” Matsukawa points to the phone screen, “Pretty sure that’s the guy who subbed for the rest of the set.” 

“Yeah…” Hajime trails, before adding softly, “He was good… Wonder why their coach didn't give him more playtime.”

Oikawa’s quick-clapping hands bring Hajime out of his thoughts, “Oh! I know what we’re talking about now! First off, I didn’t hit Shorty, he wasn’t fast enough, that’s the consequence of the game! Also, why are we talking about this?”

“Iwaizumi is on the sub’s Instagram page.”

Oikawa squeaks, “Is this about your grey-hair-slash-old-man fetish?!”

Hajime groans and facepalms, “No, oh my God, stop telling people I have a fetish, Shittykawa! He followed me.”

“Block him!” 

Hajime sighs, locks his phone, and puts it away, “Just forget it.”

“Hmph. That guy’s not even first string. What does he want with our ace?”

Hanamaki joins in, “I wonder why he’s not first string, though. I’m pretty sure he’s a third year, he’s been there every time we played against them. 'M pretty sure that Shorty is definitely a second year.”

Oikawa’s face turns from snooty to serious and he crosses his arms, “He’s good, but he lacks instinct. His technique is fine, but he doesn’t have what Shorty does. Maybe if he worked harder, but from the looks of it tonight, he doesn’t want it bad enough. He’s not on Shiratorizawa’s level - maybe he was once, but not anymore.”

'Not on Shiratorizawa’s level… Sounds like we might have something in common, after all.’

That night, before Hajime goes to sleep, he accepts EITA’s follow request and follows him back.

Why there is this "war" between Italy and France? Sorry, I never understood and I'm curious 😅😅

haha no worries! Sit down please, to hear all about a dark, very dark evening of summer 2006.

I thing there's always been some kind of sense of competition between us? Not sure actually, but (for France) in recent history the biggest turning point has been the finale of the 2006 World championship cup of soccer (when France and Italy are there, it's always about soccer). I don't know where you're from, Nonny, but soccer it's the most popular sport in France and Italy (even more in Italy, I think). So a finale of a world championship is an event. So back in 2006, we have this finale. But it's not just a finale. On the field, french player Zinedine Zidane (who was a demigod back then and still is for many people) was playing the last game of his career. So, for everybody in France, it's not only about seeing the national team win, it's about seeing Zizou win. So the game happens. There is 1 - 1 at the end of the 90 minute of time. So we're doing overtime, with everybody being tensed beyond reason. There are frictions between Zinedine Zidane and Marco Matterazi (back then, I think we were talking about shirt grabbing, words about someone's sister or mother... i don't know.) but nothing that haven't already been done or said on a soccer field. Except this time, Zidane lost it and hit Matterazi with a headbutt. Red Card and he's excluded from the field. Then France lost the finale during penalties.

Of course at the moment, there were voices rightly condemning him. You can't do that when you're an idol for so many people, for so many kids. There are also voices rightly saying that he's only human, a human who at this moment had a insane amount of pressure on his shoulder. Either way, he's still a demigod for the country. In 2006, Italy didn't make France lose the world cup. They made Zizou lose. I mean even if there hadn't been any sense of competition between us before that, there would have been after that. If you ever want to give PTSD to a French person, just show this pic:

It's still heartbreaking.

Anyway, here we are, years later, still at war. Of course it's supposed to be all about taunting before, during and after games (or any competition) and stay cool. Like any good competition between great rivals. Anyone taking it farther than that (on any side), is an idiot.

Hope it helps! Maybe my Italian friends will have more insights to share on how things are on their side 💚

Nightlife

Summary: Tony’s New Year’s Eve party causes friction between Thor and the reader.

Thor x M!Stark!Reader

Word Count: 2312

New Year’s Eve was always known for its parties and drunken souls all around the world. To say that it wouldn’t be any different at the Avenger’s Tower would be a lie. If anything, it was worse there than anywhere else in the world. That was all thanks to Tony Stark. With his millions of dollars he through his famous New Year’s Eve party, one that made every Avenger excited yet exhausted.

This wasn’t your first party, nor would it be your last. As the son of the Tony Stark parties and small events were always part of your life. Except this time it would be different. For the first time, you were actually excited for one of your dad’s extravagant and a little extra decked out parties. Your reason rested in the souls of Loki and Thor. Ever since coming back from your studies around the world, you’ve bonded with the Asgardians the most.

You had mixed feelings on Loki at first, of course. But once you got to know the guy, he wasn’t as bad as your father made him out to be. He was kind when he wanted, and he made quite times easier to do. All you needed to do is grab a book and boom, both of you have peace yet at the same time there was the comfort of knowing both of you were in the same room. You weren’t lonely.

Thor was a different story. Everything about him described by your father was right. From his tall figure to his mannerisms, your dad was spot on. You admired them both, sure, they both were great friends to have, but Thor was different. There was something about his sunshine smile and calming aura that drew you close to him to the point were you were now pinning for the god. You kept everything to yourself and just enjoyed in the joy and excitement of liking someone, especially someone like him who wasn’t just some face on TV like to everyone else. He knew you, spoke to you, befriended you.

And it was easy to hide, at least at first. You knew the feelings would grow deep down, but on the surface, you thought they’d go away. Mistaking it for simple admiration, adornment. It wasn’t impossible, you thought. He was a god, he was from a different planet and not to mention one of the strongest people on the team. But now it your feelings basically radiated off of you to the point were your father noticed. It was embarrassing, but you knew your dad wasn’t going to oppose. After all, you’re an adult, and not to mention, it’s Thor.

When Tony did notice, he also made a suggestion. Something to do with Thor and midnight at his New Year’s Eve party. You didn’t think it was a bad idea, not totally opposed. At some points in time you had your father’s charisma and bold mannerisms, but others, you felt like it would make you look like a fool. Still, you didn’t have much to lose anyway.

In your living quarters that Tony designed a lifetime on just for you, you began to dress for the occasion. You didn’t want to do anything fancy at first, but you knew you were going to have to wear a suit in the end anyway. It was just a classic black and white suit, your hands adjusting your tie. You didn’t take long to get ready but when you arrived you noticed a lot, if not all guests were already here and chatting with others. 

Your eyes scanned the room, searching for long blond locks upon the head of a tall and muscular man. Though, before your search could locate Thor, it was covered. Your lips parted a bit as you felt large hands covering your eyes, resting ever so gently against your cool skin. 

“Guess who,” the voice sang with a low rumble that made a jolt go down your spin. 

A wicked smirk took over your features, one that looked liked it belonged in the moment. You knew who it was, but you couldn’t help but ask, “Um, maybe Cap?”

A low grumble came out behind you, you knew it made the man behind you annoyed. “No, guess again.” He demanded.

You chuckled. Bringing one of your own hands up to touch the other and move it up, you turned to face the God of Mischief. “You aren’t a very good at these games.” Loki uttered as he pressed his lips together.

“I’m more for logical games, like puzzles and such.” You said meaninglessly. When both hands returned to their respective sides, you both stared at one another for a moment. You knew Loki was never one to attend these kinds of parties, but you had forced him. You thought it would be a good thing since it’ll show others how much he’s changed in his time here. But, he really only showed up cause you would be there. 

“I’m surprised my fool of a brother hasn’t swept you away yet,” Loki joked, his words both teasing and knowing. You were close with him, so when you needed someone to talk to, it was Loki. It wouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that you told him who stole your heart. 

You have a quick chuckle at Loki’s words. “I haven’t seen him yet, but he should be here.”

Loki nodded before extending his arm out for you to wrap yours between as he said, “I guess I’ll just have to keep you company till then.”

“Wow, how nice of you.” You sarcastically stated as you took Loki’s offer willingly.

The time spent with Loki was fun and he kept you entertained with his magic as the both of you talked about meaningless things and drank as much as you pleased. In the beginning, you watched, waited for Thor. Though, you stopped after thirty minutes in, and when you did is when he finally came around. 

He looked for you, wanting to spend this party with the one person who made him feel at home here and so much more. His ocean hues searched around the place, wondering if you had just ditched and went to watch movies in your room. Though, when he saw you chatting it up with his brother, he smiled, but it didn’t quite reach his eyes. At first, it did, but when he saw that smile you put on such a large display for his brother and not him, he shrunk. He knew he was a bit late, but he didn’t think he was this late. 

His head moved down, unable to look at the pure joy that was caused by someone else, someone other than him. He knew he should be happy, Loki deserved someone like you, someone gentle and kind but could snap anyone back into reality when needed. Even with that knowing, even with that knowledge that he should be happy, he wished more than anything that it was him instead. 

“You know, Lok, just cause Midgardian liquor doesn’t work on Asgardians, doesn’t mean you get to laugh at me.” You burped out as you held your head up with your hand, your lips half closed as you stared at the smiling god. You knew the liquor between worlds was different, but here you could really take your alcohol.

“Yeah, yeah,” Loki hummed out. “Just make sure you make a fool out of yourself.”

“That’s why I got you to watch me!” You smiled, bright and foolish as you took another shot of fireball. 

Loki shook his head, his eyes keeping hold of you before noticing someone within the corners of his eyes. A small hum made way from his throat as he gazed out into the crowd, his forest hues instantly locking onto a familiar face talking with an unfamiliar woman. 

“Uh-oh,” Loki muttered from his lips, his words unintentionally catching your attention. When you noticed his gaze away from you, your eyes followed his own, noticing what he was looking at. Behind the sea of souls was Thor talking with a woman, at first, it looked innocent conversation. Though, as you watched you noticed her hands casually touching, caressing his biceps in a seductive manner.

You unconsciously began to sink into your chair, your shoulders raising as you started to pressed your lips together. “I should have stayed home.”

Loki turned his head with his browed furrowed, his mouth opening for a second before closing. “You are home.”

You bit your inner cheek. “I should have stayed in my room.” 

The exchange was nothing more than meaningless flirting, you knew that. And yet despite knowing that simple fact it felt like he intentionally stabbed you with a knife, twisting it into your heart when he didn’t show any signs of discomfort. Though that was nothing compared to when you noticed him inch closer to her, his eyes glossed over with something unfamiliar to you, and yet, you desired it to be targeted at you instead.

“Hey,” a voice called out. Your gaze lazily turned to Loki who stared at you with genuine concern. “Don’t let this get you down.”

You stared at him for a moment. You knew you were never one to get jealous, nor sad over someone not like you back. You knew not everyone was going to just fall at their feet for you, and you knew you didn’t exactly give them a good reason to fall for you. You were a genius, sure, you were Tony Stark’s son after all, but there was more. You used to be playboy, just like your father. You put work and science over anything else and you traveled to much to hold a steady relationship. You had looks, yeah, but looks don’t get you everything.

You knew it would be even harder once you fell for the god. Not only was he from a different planet, the God of Thunder, and a friend of your father, but he wasn’t exactly mortal. Sure, he would live and die as much as the next human, but it takes longer. A good five-thousand years longer. You knew it would be heartbreaking if you spent your lifetime with him, but even with all these facts, all these notes, you still couldn’t help the desire to have him that burned within you like a fire that only grew larger every time you laid your eyes upon him.

You didn’t answer Loki but instead take one more shot before getting up from your seat. A look of determination set in your colored hues.

“What are you doing?” Loki asked, his tone concerning.

You moved your eyes over towards the clock as it grew closer and closer to midnight. Fifteen seconds.

“Making my move.” You hummed under your breath but yet just loud enough for Loki to here. 

He didn’t respond to your words, but that didn’t matter to you anyway. As your feet walked towards Thor, you could only hear the deafening sound of your footsteps louder than usual, your heart pattering like a machine gun against your ribs, waiting to be released from its confided prison. You completely dismissed the calls from others and the eyes of many as you made sure to look at Thor like he was the only person in the room, despite the drunken state you were in, you still had some control and knew you would remember this all in the morning. 

When you were right next to him, the black haired woman was first to notice you. She greeted you, you knew that, but you didn’t need any distractions. Even if she found you rude or anything, you didn’t care in the moment. You didn’t care about anything else other than him. The feeling only growing stronger by tenfold when his eyes met yours. They were the most beautiful eyes you’ve ever seen. Not cause of the color, but what he hid underneath and how he let you see every bit of it. 

“Are you alright?” He asked, confused. You didn’t speak, nor didn’t you shake your head. You just stared with this stern expression all over your features. It wasn’t until the clock struck twelve, everyone cheering and kissing the closest person to them.

That’s exactly what you did. In a swift moment you grabbed a hold of his inner coat, yanking on it to pull him down before taking what you thought was yours. At first, it was slow and uncertain. You knew why, you did just kiss him without any warning. Though, after a moment, you noticed the rhythm on his side pick up, and you instantly followed his lead.

It was soft and sensual, something you’ve never felt before. It was like the world was spinning only around the both of you. It felt like a dream, a gentle dream that you didn’t wish to wake from. You hoped, prayed even that this would be a dream that would be on a continues loop. One that would show you promise and truth. However, it truly began real when his large hand slipped behind your head, rubbing soft circles with his thumb while the other tugged on your waist and pressing your bodies together. It was the colliding heat that woke up from the idea, the idea that this was pure fantasy. When it came to you that it was real, it was like everything stopped and the only thing you felt was him. 

You wanted it to last forever, but you knew this wasn’t a possibility. He was the first to pull away, but he kept his hands steady on your figure. His eyes were searching and yet under them was this happiness not even he could hide. 

“Not that I am complaining, but, what was that for?” He asked softly, his breath shaken as his words came to an end. Waiting impatiently for the answer.

You smiled gently, a smile that didn’t show teeth. “I just got tired of waiting.”

↳ Bokuto Koutaru x gn!reader

A/N: this took so much effort to write and i couldn’t tell you why jeez -- i love bo but he gave me so much trouble? i finally got this to a point where i think its....mediocre...so hopefully you enjoy it more than i do! drink water, take your meds and stay safe!

warnings: none!

genre: fluff!

You and Bokuto rushed into your house, toeing off your shoes at the genkan and racing up the stairs, socked feet pounding on the hardwood. You both couldn’t stop talking, words pouring out of your mouths without any real cadence, just excitement pumping through your veins. 

 “Did you see the highlight reels during lunch! That was such a cool match, the way Chie cross-shot that ball and completely bypassed the other team’s libero?” Kou rambled, shrugging off his jacket and letting his school bag thump heavily onto the floor beside the couch, both of you teetering dangerously from the non-existent friction of your socks against the smooth floor. 

 “Yes, it was so cool! I lost my mind when Terou missed a ball, and the way you could hear it echo was heartbreaking.” You sighed at the thought, the scene replaying in your head again as you and Bokuto scrambled through the kitchen, raiding the pantry and fridge for any snacks. Once you both could barely hold on to the packaged goods, you two maneuver your way back to the living room. You two let the snacks fall out of your arms and drop onto the coffee table set at, conveniently, arms-length away from the couch.

You and Kou settle in, knees pressed together as you both took up as much couch space as you could.

 “Wanna watch the match or more highlights?” You asked, picking up the TV remote to start scrolling into the youtube app. 

 “The match! We’ll just be watching the same highlights if we keep watching them, you know?” Koutaru’s voice was muffled by the shrimp chips he had shoveled into his mouth, but you understood him regardless.

 “That’s true...okay, gimme a sec to find it in full somewhere.” You responded, eyes glued to the search results. Highlight reel after Highlight reel, but not a single video held the entire match, even though you knew it had to be up! 

 “Hey, come here a sec?” Bokuto’s voice pulled you away from the screen, your body only slightly shifting to face him. However, your eyes stayed where they were, scanning the results for anything remotely close to your desired outcome. 

“Yeah? Did you forget your phone again? I saw it on the counter I thi-” you’re so focused on your task that you’re entirely startled by Bokuto’s hand wrapping around your waist and pulling you closer, his other hand turning your head quickly to press a soft kiss against your lips. 

 You freeze, heat rushing to your cheeks. Koutaru was one to be affectionate, yes, but it never failed to leave you light-headed and giddy. Bokuto smiled brightly at you, hand on your waist, winding tighter to press your frame closer to his.

“What was that for?” If you had been any more present-minded, you would’ve been embarrassed by how breathy your voice was. As you were, though, you didn’t have the willpower to care.

 “You’re cute when you’re all focused.” Kou laughed lightly, pressing another light kiss to your cheek and bringing his bag of chips up to your line of sight, shaking it. You let out a tiny laugh, accepting his offer. 

As you pop the snack into your mouth and settle against him, your shirt rides up and exposes a part of your torso to the fabric of the couch. Usually, that would be fine, but now- 

 “Ah, Kou, you got crumbs all over the couch,” you pouted, quickly sitting up to brush off the tiny dust particles that itched at your skin uncomfortably. 

 “Sorry, sunshine, but can you blame me?” Koutaru sits up, placing his chip bag on the coffee table and gently cupping your face in his hands. You freeze again, hand stalling in its sweeping motion to land on his thigh. 

 “You’re just so cute, you know?” He sighed, pressing another kiss to your mouth and- You let him push you back into the sofa, littering kisses wherever he can. You couldn’t help but lament the video of the full volleyball game you two had been dying to see (that, ultimately, you had never found) before you put all your energy into reciprocating the affection Bokuto so easily gave you.

NUMBER ONE IN MY HEART !!!!!

Waiting

Not wanting to think on it took much, Stiles took a step forward and passed his hand between the bars, moving the bleeding side closer to Derek’s mouth.

“Not too close, he bites.”

Stiles snatched his hand away just as Derek had been about to lick at it. The snarl he got in response was not comforting.

“He what?” Stiles asked nervously, turning to Deaton.

The man looked a little amused. “Don’t worry, only if he doesn’t like you.”

“Well, he probably hates me, now!” Stiles insisted, turning back to Derek.

He looked extremely displeased.

  Number Two !!!!

Don't Savage The Messenger

There is an uneasy truce between the werewolves in the woods and the humans who live in Beacon Hills, protected by a magical boundary that gives warning any time a werewolf crosses it. Then the sheriff is taken by the werewolves and his son offers himself in exchange.

Stiles promises to serve the werewolf pack, not knowing what horrible use they might have for him. But it turns out his most useful skill is the ability to cross the boundary line between humans and werewolves. Life with the werewolves is nothing like he feared and the werewolves themselves are nothing like the hunters' stories would have him believe.

Home

January seventh. Seven days since the start of 2015, and seven days since his father’s death.

The bastard, he thinks bitterly. The past year Derek Hale had made it blatantly obvious that he hated his scrawny guts, taking every given opportunity to shove him up against a wall, growl threats in his ears and roll his eyes whenever he stepped into the room, muttering some snide comment about how spastic or idiotic he was.

So why did he fucking volunteer to take him in?

   Number Four !!!

With or Without You

Derek thinks that the mating rituals are overly romanticized bullshit, but claiming a mate and defending them from challengers is something werewolves do, and his pack can't afford to appear weak after the fire. Especially not when Deucalion and his friends are in town for the rituals. Enter Stiles Stilinski, who offers to let Derek claim him so he won't be overrun at the ceremonies. Nothing goes as expected.

Sell Your Body to the Night

"No," he repeated impatiently. "I'm not a cop. I'm someone who wants to exchange my money for your sexual services. I was told you were in that line of work."

"I, uh, yeah, sorry," Stiles said. He glanced around again and then up--the full moon was almost directly overhead. Just one of those nights, maybe. "Yeah, I am. I do that."

 There's Monsters at Home

“How did you get past the wards?” Derek had put them up, with Peter’s grudging assistance, after the Alpha pack had made themselves at home a few times too many.

The guy pulled a face. “You mean the wards a five-year-old girl with the mental ability of a goldfish could deconstruct?” He blinked wide eyes at Derek. “Gee, I don’t know. It’s bound to go down as one of life’s great mysteries.”

  One Dollar Yoda

Stiles is an unbonded spark, so he's been dealing with courting alphas since he was ten. It's gotten a lot worse since he turned sixteen. Some are assholes, some are nice, but Stiles hasn't wanted to spend the rest of his life bound to any of them.

When Derek Hale shows up at his school, Stiles expects him to be just another asshole alpha attempting to buy him with expensive gifts. But Derek Hale puts no effort whatsoever into his courtship gifts. Stiles ought to be offended but instead he finds it refreshing.

  Stilinski's Home for Wayward Wolves

“At least your puppies knock first,” Stiles snorts. “Here I thought their alpha raised them to be well-mannered.”

“There’s a sign,” Derek responds stiffly.

Stiles, whose curiosity outweighs even his hardest of grudges, abandons his chilly façade of nonchalance in a heartbeat. He jumps right up and all but pushes Derek out of the way in his effort to get to the window, and sure enough when he leans outside there’s a laminated strip of cardstock duct taped to the vinyl siding:

DON’T FORGET TO KNOCK -- Stiles gets cranky when we scare him

There's something weird about Beacon Hills that Stiles can't quite put his finger on. The way everyone in town knows his name the day he arrives. The way they insist the melancholic howling that echoes through the forest every night is just a dog. The way his dad denies getting a dog, even though Stiles comes home to find one sprawled across his bed, some big black thing whose eyes gleam red in the right light. The way that massive oak tree out in the woods vibrates under his touch, pulsing with sickly life.

There's something weird going on in this town, and Stiles is determined to get to the bottom of it.

Stiles never knows if it's worse when Derek Hale steps out of the shadows or when he slinks back into them; either way, Stiles never expected to have this many feelings about his stupid old yellow owl shirt.

  Fire, Fury, and Flame

Stiles Stilinski was never going to be the omega who got knocked up right after high school, and then he's accidentally artificially inseminated with a stranger's sperm. Awesome. And the father of Stiles's baby just so happens to be Derek Hale. Half-feral, quite possibly a murderer, and pursued by a gleefully sadistic band of hunters who are only too eager to use Stiles and his baby to hit Derek right where it hurts. Joy.

  Present

When Stiles's best friend Scott presented as a werewolf, it was just the worst. It was front-page news, there were reporters outside his house asking him questions, and people at school stared and kept their distance or interrogated him mercilessly. Worst by far was that it meant Scott had to leave immediately to live with the werewolf pack in the mountains -- which no one knew anything about. Stiles couldn't even visit, so he only got to see Scott once a month when he came back to visit his mom. It sucked.

A year later, he presents too.

 Like the Sun Holds the Moon

Stiles is an omega, and he's supposed to be obedient. He's supposed to mate with the stranger chosen for him and quietly disappear. He's not supposed to talk to alphas, or have sex, or fall in love. Then he meets Derek Hale. Obedience was always overrated, anyway.

"Do you know what just happened?" Peter asked, frowning. "Do you know what Derek did?"

"He dislocated my shoulder," Stiles snapped, but Peter just arched an eyebrow, unimpressed by that answer.

  Theory of Overprotective Canines

Stiles is totally looking forward to living alone in his super cool apartment off-campus. He is. He is also very excited to bike to school every day, ready to set up an awesome game room, and definitely over his crush on Derek Hale. Completely over it.

Or at least he is until Derek decides he's moving in with him. And then turns out to be the perfect roommate. And then starts attending all his classes. As a wolf.

This is not going according to plan.

     A Very Special Mention For A Technically Steter Fic But It’s WIP And SUPER Long So We’re Not There Yet

Consider it Gen !!!

It’s Awesome ! Check It Out !

Fanart !

We Don't Need Grace

The only reason Stiles and Finstock even met was because the Sheriff needed someone to wear his kid out. Countless clubs and sports turned Stiles away, and the alcoholic gym owner with a foul mouth and crazy hair was the Sheriff’s last hope. What started as an awkward arrangement would become an incredible journey full of gymnastics, blue ribbons, and gold medals.

Family isn’t always blood, sometimes it’s finding someone at the right time. Sometimes family is a hyperactive kid who hangs around the gym and his coach who takes his coffee with whiskey.

Otherwise known as The Olympics AU.

Seed Wolf!

Stiles finds a mysterious packet of seeds one day called 'Seed Wolf'. He doesn't expect anything to grow from them, maybe a flower or something to replace his beloved (and deceased) cactus Bertrand.

What grows from the little seed is surprising.

Words: Zero, obviously. But it’s really long

JJK chapters 156 – 158 reaction and spoilers

Chapter 156

Luckily this is a good place to jump in and I know enough major spoilers from the Shibuya arc I don’t think there will be any super major surprises.

Of course it’s the Southern Cross as a plot point while I’m currently marathoning Fist of the North Star.

I would like to point out that the constellation does have five stars associated with it. It looks a bit like +. with a fifth star in the bottom right quadrant. So it wouldn’t surprise me if perhaps Kirara is acting as that fifth star, which if so I’m curious if we’ll find out the other two anchor points farther away from the door than Fushiguro and Panda.

Going to just assume this is Fist of the North Star inspired because not only the Southern Cross but also the attack is called “Love Rendezvous” and the famous You は Shock opening song’s title translates to something like “Take Back Love.” Reuniting with a lover is also part of the driving plot of the first arc as well.

I was both right and wrong about the star order mostly because I was taught that the star they call Ginan in the chapter is the fifth star of the constellation, but here it’s marked as the fourth.

Chapter 157

Wonder if the guy Itadori’s fighting has some kind of friction curse where he can increase air resistance or something. It’ll be interesting to find out the explanation.

Chapter 158

Knew Gojo got sealed. Didn’t know principal died. That’s a plot point that sounds like it’s going be tough to watch when the anime gets there (or I get my hands on the graphic novels eventually when it’s safer to go to the library).

”He died fighting a higher up [after Shibuya].” Definitely going to be heartbreaking but interesting when I get there.

Given that Junpei, Nanami, and the Principal both died I’m kind of curious if I’m right about how the manga ends. I mean obviously the manga ends when Itadori dies, but I keep thinking about how his grandpa said, “When it's your time to go, make sure you're surrounded by others. Don't end up like me,” and how that might mean Itadori will have living friends and dead friends around him when he dies. Like he definitely won’t die alone, he’s going to have people will him on both sides.

Fushiguro: I'm the head of the Zen'in clan. Fushiguro: [thinking] Whatever. I might as well take advantage of it.

ilu, Fushiguro

I read up on the culling game rules since it was easy to find. Since this player has made a new rule they must have killed at least twenty sorcerers, which given their character design, I would believe that’s possible.

”They [the sorcerers participating in the culling game] were stronger 400 years ago. Where is Sukuna?” Ominous. Also ominous they’ve got 200 points, which means 40 sorcerers.

Fushiguro’s like “We’ll discuss [how Sukuna fists into this] later,” and it’s like boy I hope so because I am curious about his past.

ngl I’m not super into plots like culling games, which is why I never got into the Hunger Games franchise, but I’m curious what Akutami is going to do with the material and this is a good place to jump into the manga, so I’m glad I got caught up now.
