vash and knives are each other's antithesis not because vash is kind and knives is cruel, but because vash thinks the best of people and knives thinks the worst
#trigun#millions knives#vash the stampede#mid writes#thinking specifically the 98 versions but i guess could apply to the others too#sorry i saw dark fic with knives and thought he would NOT fucking do that#like he's terrible and awful and i dont like him but he would NOT do that in particular#knives hates humans so much specifically because he's seen and heard of them do such cruel and terrible things#and that makes them all unworthy of living in his eyes#which is fucked up but understandable#but im also of the firm belief that “accurate characterization” really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things#and everyone will interpret the same character differently so like who cares#keep it up#make me madder#the world is your oyster and i am just a guy on the internet#mid once again putting genuine character analysis in the tags where no one will read it

Nerd Love
After years of working together, Pete still manages to break you.
Request: “Hi! Can I get a Pete imagine where you guys work on SNL together and you have few skits together and during one of them you can’t stop laughing”
Pete Davidson x Reader
Warnings: Cursing
Word Count: 2237
“Live from New York, it’s Saturday night!” You hear Kate and the host of the week announce before Lorne motions that the cameras had cut for commercial break. You and Pete had a sketch together in exactly 12 minutes and 45 seconds, and you were trying to cool your nerves.
You loved your job, writing on SNL was something you had dreamed of since you were in middle school, and now it was your reality. Of course, it was hard, the hours were long and the work was demanding. But having Pete by your side made it all bearable.
You had met on your first day, getting hired one season after him. You two were deemed the “babies” of the cast because you were the youngest, so naturally you got paired up. A lot.
At first it bothered you that you only really ever worked with one person, but after your first few episodes you grew to love Pete. Your energies matched so well, and whenever you wrote together you easily built of each other.
After 6 years of working on the show together, you had become really close friends. You were with him through all of his hard times, and you were one of the few people he let visit him in rehab. In return, he stuck by your side through everything, even when the internet tried to cancel you for an interview that was taken completely out of context.
You couldn’t pinpoint when, but at some point, you had developed real feelings for him. Obviously, you’d never tell him, not wanting to mess up your amazing friendship. But they still flourished, especially when you would be up until 6 am writing sketches and goofing around in the writer’s room. Of course, the comments from fans didn’t help your feelings either. They loved you guys. Anytime you posted Pete on your social media, they were all over it.
But you guys had denied the dating rumors countless times since they’d started 5 years ago. Even though having to hear the words “we’re just friends” over and over killed you.
You were lost in thought when Pete came up behind you, hands grabbing your shoulders and shaking you slightly. “Ready bookworm?” He asked, moving to stand next to you.
“Only if you are, Mr. jock-man.” You laughed, rolling your eyes.
The sketch you and Pete had written was a young couple on a really fancy date to celebrate their 6-month anniversary. Your character was going on the date with Kyle Mooney’s character. Both of you were the stereotypical nerd couple with glasses, suspenders, and everything else. Pete was playing your waiter, who obviously did not give a shit about his job. He was the stereotypical jock character. Your character was super attracted to him and kept paying attention to him. He loved the attention and would do things like show you his (reaaaallllyyy) lame tattoos, tell you about sports, and everything that nerds don’t like. Kyle obviously didn’t like that and kept trying to get your attention in the weirdest of ways.
It was pretty funny in rehearsals, almost too funny. Seeing Pete act so out of character was hilarious to you and having to overdramatically flirt with him felt ridiculous. You barely made it through in rehearsals without laughing, so you had to hope you could do it on stage.
“Y/N, Pete, and Kyle. You’re up.” The stagehand told you, and you grabbed Kyle’s hand, walking to the stage.
The sketch started and you were doing okay. You and Kyle had your conversation about your anniversary and your favorite Star Wars movies. But then Pete walked onto the stage in his ridiculous waiter getup. His white shirt was unbuttoned at the top and wrinkled, his black pants hanging low on his hips, and his apron only half tied. You bit your tongue to keep yourself together.
“Welcome to White Oyster, what do you want?” He said in a very bored voice. You acted interested, eyes raking up and down him. You felt ridiculous and had to swallow a laugh.
Kyle pushed his glasses up on his nose, “me and my girlfriend are here for our six-month anniversary, so we would like the couple’s special.” His nerd voice was incredible.
“Okay. Anything else?” Pete’s voice remained monotone.
You bit your lip, “do you recommend anything else?” You asked, trying to sound nerd-sexy.
You could see Pete struggling to contain a smile. “I mean, whatever. Food here is shitty anyways.”
Kyle’s mouth gaped, “can you not speak like that around my girlfriend, please?”
The sketch continued with you making flirty remarks towards Pete, him being very bored and unaware, and Kyle trying to direct your attention. After your second attempt at flirting with him, you could feel yourself breaking down.
“So, I was wondering. Do you have any tattoos?” You asked him, your elbow on the table, twirling a piece of your hair in your finger.
Pete nodded, pulling up his shirt to show the big MOM tattoo on his side that was drawn on earlier. You felt a giggle slip out, completely out of character.
You tried to cover it up and continue, “wow, you really must love your mom, huh?” Another chuckle leaving your mouth, “that’s kinda hot.”
Kyle looked at you with wide eyes, “Linda!” He screamed the name of your character
Pete shrugged, “Nah, I did it myself. It says WOW, like world of warcraft.”
You couldn’t help the laugh that fell out of your mouth, and one followed from Pete. This was a disaster. You tried to regain your composure, knowing Kyle was probably really frustrated right now. “I just think tattoos are so cool. You don’t have any, do you Darren?” You asked Kyle’s character, eyes narrowing at him. You heard a chuckle from Pete beside you and you bit your cheek.
Kyle faked looking flustered, “N-no. But I have all 7 of the Harry Potter books and 4 collectors wands.”
Pete nodded, “Oh cool, I have a Harry Potter tattoo.” He pulled up his arm to show his real tattoo.
Your eyes went wide, “Wow. That’s way cooler.” You batted your eyes up at Pete, making him break even more. Watching his face go red and his mouth lifting up with laughter made you squeeze your eyes to hide your laughter.
“But babe!” Kyle was starting to break now too. “You love my Harry Potter stuff!”
“It’s cool, I guess.”
The sketch continued with you and Pete laughing anytime you looked at each other, your energies feeding into one another. You both tried really hard to keep it together, but something about flirting with Pete made you so giddy inside that you couldn’t help it.
Eventually the scene ended and the lights went down. You knew the cameras probably caught an extra few seconds after the close of the sketch, meaning they caught you and Pete breaking down into fits of laughter.
You somehow made it offstage, faces red. “We’re so gonna get fired.” He said through giggles.
“I’m so sorry,” You started, trying to take breaths through your laughs. “I don’t know why I couldn’t hold it together.”
“You looked ridiculous.” Pete laughed, pointing at your glasses.
After the show you made your way back to your dressing room, changing into your day clothes and getting ready to leave. You finally checked your phone, which had been off the duration of the show.
Your twitter feed was filled with clips of you and Pete laughing through the sketch.
They’re so cute together #goals
Love their friendship
Get you someone who looks at you like Pete looks at Y/N
Poor Kyle ☹
The way they can’t get through a skit because they’re too in love
And they say they aren’t dating…
Can’t believe the unprofessionalism
Pete and Y/N are dating… no one can convince me otherwise
The flirting!!! The looks!!!
I would like Pete and Y/N to get married and adopt me please
Your heart melted at all the comments, a sigh leaving your mouth. You watched the video and noticed the way he looked at you anytime you broke character, it was the same way you looked at him all the time.
You shook your head, convincing yourself you were imagining it. You couldn’t afford to think like that, it would ruin your friendship.
A knock at your door pulled you out of your thoughts, “Y/N, wanna go grab a drink with me?” It was Pete.
“You can come in.” You called, and he did so. “I don’t know, I was thinking I might just go home. I’m pretty tired.” You really just wanted to go home and sort through your feelings for the umpteenth time that month.
He nodded, watching as you tossed various items in your bag, “you were great tonight.”
You giggled, “Pete I barely made it through our sketch, it was a disaster.”
He rolled his eyes, walking over to where you were at your vanity. “I messed up too, but it was fine. No one noticed.”
You leaned into the mirror, fixing your makeup slightly. Pete was very close to you, watching you through said mirror. “Trust me, Petey. Everyone noticed.” You laughed, standing up straight again.
Your back was inches from his chest, and you could suddenly feel a different sort of tension in the air. But you didn’t make any move to shift away from him. He gave you a quizzical look through the mirror and you took out your phone, turning to him.
You took in a breath at the proximity. You weren’t close enough to kiss or anything, but his chest was only a few inches away from you. You shook away the thoughts you were having and opened your twitter, letting him scroll through the tweets. He chuckled and shook his head as he read them, eventually handing you your phone back.
“People really like us together.” He said, smiling.
You rolled your eyes, “They have for the past like, 6 years, Petey. We’re funny.” You smiled moving to turn back to grab your bag, but his hand grabbed your hip and made you stay facing him.
Your mind went blank at his touch, trying to figure out if this was real or if you were just really really tired. “That’s not what I meant.” He said, quieter.
You laughed, looking away from his eyes, not really knowing what to say. “I mean, people have always thought… stuff like that.” You mumbled, trying to figure out what the hell was going on.
Pete’s eyes were searching your face, taking in every detail. “Have you ever thought about, like, why people think we’re…” He trailed off, but you knew what he was implying.
You blushed, looking down at your toes. “I mean, I guess we’re together a lot and we get on well. People just like to make assumptions, I guess.”
“Yeah, and I’m sure it doesn’t help that I can never keep my eyes off of you, even when the cameras are rolling.” He said, a chuckle following.
You smiled, looking back up at him, your brain trying to process what he just said. After a few moments of silence, you spit out a “why are you bringing this up?” Your voice was soft, almost a whisper.
He sighed, hand moving from your hip and rubbing his face lightly. “I don’t know, I’ve just been thinking a lot.” You gave him a look that told him to continue. “I mean, I think it’s kind of obvious that I like you.”
Your mouth dropped, “obvious? Pete Davidson you have been far from obvious about your feelings.” You really thought you were dreaming, hearing those words from him was just impossible.
“Are you kidding me? How many sketches do I have to write just so I can flirt with you? Have you not picked up on the fact that literally every sketch I write for you to be in we’re playing some sort of couple?” He laughed, stepping towards you, and grabbing your hips again. “Dude, and I thought I was oblivious to this shit.”
“In my defense I’ve spent the past like 6 years trying to convince myself you didn’t feel the same way.” You said, a smile crossing your face.
Pete rolled his eyes, leaning closer to you, “now why would you wanna do that?” There was a playful tone in his voice, but you couldn’t help your serious answer.
“Because I didn’t wanna read the signs wrong and mess up our friendship.” You sighed.
Pete’s smile softened, “Y/N I literally want to kill you right now for making me wait this long.” You giggled, leaning closer to him. “But you’re cute so I guess I can let it slide.”
“If I kiss you will it make up for it?” You asked, batting your eyelashes.
Pete pretended to think about it, “hmmm, maybe. You should definitely give it a shot to see.”
You rolled your eyes, wrapping your arms around his neck and pulling him into you. Your lips touched his and it was like everything in the universe suddenly aligned. His mouth moved against yours in soft, perfect motions. His hands pulled you closer into him, your bodies molding together like it was meant to be.
When you finally pulled away for breath, he pressed his forehead against yours, a wide grin on his face. “So, about those drinks?”

8. book
I decided to start writing a book. A novel, it’s going to be fiction. It’s a big project. I dread big projects. I don’t feel as if I am ever able to complete them. It’s going to be left unfinished, why do I even bother? So many projects that I’ve started and never finished. I get an idea, then I can’t make myself do the actual work to make it a reality. Why do I think I can write a book when I can barely read books without becoming distracted and doing something else instead? I give up too easily. But, then again, do I really have it in me to produce something that is good? That people would want to read? Insecurity creeps in, telling me that I will fail. I fear failure. Of course I do, who doesn’t? Whenever people say that their greatest fear is failure, all I wonder is who out there is not afraid of failure? Is there someone out there with so much confidence that they absolutely do not in any way fear failure? Even narcissists technically fear failure, it is what leads them to such ridiculous overcompensation, putting on the facade of bravado to mask their actual dire sense of insecurity. Do not fall for the scams, no person is truly without self-doubt. (Well, I guess maybe psychopaths, but there’s a whole lot of things amiss with them.)
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve entertained myself by coming up with stories, fictional universes that I would populate with characters of my own invention. When I was a kid, what I really wanted was to become a comic book writer and artist. Well, in between other gigs I imagined would suit me, including at one point wanting to be a “singing farmer,” as I put it. Still, I’ve always returned to fiction and storytelling. There’s something about creating a world that lets you so fully distract yourself from all the stressful daily hullabaloo that goes on around you. Escapism, it’s fun, it’s therapeutic, I think. There’s a reason why humans have been telling each other stories for millennia, since even before we lived in houses. Back when we were all huddled around the fire, wearing our best comfortable animal furs, sharing tales of the hunt. Your uncle who once took part in killing a mammoth, the impressive beast nearly gorging him with its big tusks. How clever he was when he noticed that the mammoth had one leg weaker than the others, and used that to his advantage. How the entire hunting party banded together to bring the behemoth down, getting all that meat to feed their families with for months! Stories make you feel good. Like as if you have something to celebrate, even when you might be starving due to the more recent hunts not having gone as well. Damn that saber-tooth tiger that killed your uncle…
Storytelling is linked to acting. Both with acting and with storytelling you have to commit. Whatever you are doing, whatever role you are performing, you have to sell it. You may be on stage talking about that time you went scuba diving with your future wife, and how you encountered an oyster with the most magnificent pearl inside, and how you made a ring for the pearl and used it when you proposed to her. You have to sell it. You have to get the audience laughing, gasping, crying, going “aww,” feeling as if they were there with you that day. Of course, they don’t know it is all just lies. You made it up. It’s all fiction. But you committed, so they won’t ever know. Storytelling is a gift to others, people will appreciate you if you tell good stories, but you’re also kinda deviant. Even if it’s technically based on a true story, you’ve certainly added your embellishments. You’re a trickster, a devious individual. No wonder actors have historically been seen as dubious folks. They come into town, romances all the young women and men, telling them big tales of their lives on the road, and they can’t possibly know if you are telling the truth or not. You may just be lying. You probably are lying. Let’s be honest, you’ve probably not told a single true thing in your life.
I am bad at the hustle. No, I can talk quite well, and I can keep people’s attention for a long while. But I can’t be a huckster. Going out there, putting myself on the line hoping people will swallow my bullshit. I can’t really avoid speaking from my heart when I do speak. Or when I write, as I happen to be doing now. This blog has so far been thoroughly candid in places, in such a way I may come across like I’m at a confessional. Not that I have much evil to confess, but I can’t help but be transparent. I can’t flip into different kinds of personalities, each with its own schemes and plots, being some master manipulator, someone who you can never figure out what they're truly up to, or what they truly want. No, what I am is clearly written on my face. I’ve got one self, and it is the one before you. He’s hairy, and tall, and a bit of a dork. I am happy to talk to you, to engage with you, but I won’t be anyone but myself. I am me. I hope that’ll do.
Of course you are familiar with all those pick-up artists that plagues the internet. Or well, not just the internet. Go into any old-fashioned bookstore (where they store books on paper, not in digital code,) and you are bound to find some sleazy book written by a sleazy guy about how to sleazily seduce women. Those books don’t want you acting like me. According to them, seduction is all about manipulation. To figure out the very right thing to say to get women to fawn all over you. They don’t want you to be sincere, telling the truth as you see it. Nah, you gotta keep that stuff bottled up, deep down inside your soul, because most likely, your true self is ugly. It’s interesting how you can get little details from these pick-up artists depending on the sort of things they say, the tips they provide. The fact that all of them seem to harbour this festering misogyny is no big surprise, but every so often, you get these little glimpses of these people’s true worldview, one where power is everything, true love is a fallacy, and happiness is a lie manufactured by Hollywood to make us all into docile consumers. No wonder the “red-pill” so often leads to people taking the “black-pill.” First hucksters will lure you in, telling you that they’ve got the secret as to how to be a success, then when they’ve got you isolated, they reveal to you how truly misanthropic and bleak their actual beliefs are.
I am fascinated with cults, for much of the same reason why I am fascinated with storytelling. What is a cult leader if not just a great storyteller? They’re something like the modern day shaman, capable of spellbinding people with their weird idiosyncratic way of speaking. High-functioning people with autism are often said to have an idiosyncratic way of speaking. No, I am not suggesting that cult leaders are all somewhere on the spectrum, though it wouldn’t surprise me if some famous cult leaders did turn out to have been on the spectrum. However, for an autistic person to become a cult leader, I think they would have to be a true believer, and not some fraud just looking to scam others. Ultimately, no autistic person would want to surround themselves with people unless they truly do believe it is essential, to like, save mankind from damnation or something. It’s the difference between sincerity and insincerity. It is difficult for autistic people to be insincere, as insincerity requires a lot of social skills that autistic people struggle with. Having to juggle all these balls in the air, making sure you keep the big lie going, that you remember to change your behaviour depending on who you are speaking to in order to keep them from figuring out that you’re a bullshitter. Hollow people are great at being insincere. People like L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of the highly profitable cult that is Scientology, was at his core a hollow individual. He had no problems twisting the minds of the people around him, because he never felt a need to be sincere. If an autistic person were to become a cult leader, I can guarantee you that it wouldn’t be a profitable cult. Nah, autistic people aren’t in it for the money, we’re all about keeping it real.
Being a sincere person, surely I should be able to write a novel and make it feel earnest. Like it was delivered with passion, because I wouldn’t be able to write anything that wasn’t true to myself. Well, I do hope so. Having something I’ve made be referred to as genuine is something I see as a great compliment. I’m a student of art history, I’ve made some “serious” art before, I know how terrible art can be when it is not delivered with good faith. Sure, some art is cynical, or ironic, but even then, it tends to come from a real place. Good artists, even when they’re fully armed with the dada mindset, must believe in what they are doing. Whether they are doing it for a laugh or not, that’s irrelevant. Even if all you wish is to be silly and make something that is comical, you have to believe in what you are creating. Or else people won’t bother engaging with it. Why look at a painting by someone who is just interested in making money? Insincere artists do exist, and they can end up becoming quite successful, but ultimately, history won’t be kind to them. Damien Hirst comes to mind, heard he's into NFTs now.
Sure, I don’t like insincere people. Does that make me a bigot? Like, it’s not as if they can help themselves. It’s just who they are, spineless maggots with no soul. It doesn’t mean we have to hate them. No, no, no... I am just generalising. Don’t go thinking there’s just two kinds of people in the world, the sincere and the insincere. It’s not a binary. Most people are both, just like with introverts and extroverts, humans are complex. But there are definitely those that decide to feed into their insincere side, realising that it is often the key to success. Through insincerity, you learn to let go of self-doubt, you stop worrying so much about what others think of you, because you are never truly yourself. If they hate you, then so what? They don’t actually hate you, they just hate a role that you are playing. So what if you seduced that woman, made her feel as if you were the perfect match, then you ghosted her and completely forgot about her? It’s her fault for falling for your tricks. You were clearly just playing the game, being a super-seducer, she should have known better. By embracing insincerity, it’s like gaining a superpower. No longer do you have to care about the impact you have on others, no longer do you have to worry about what it means to be a social human being making choices that affect the others around you. Because you’re not the person they think you are. Actually, you’re not quite sure you’re the person you think you are… Who are you?
I’ve got the plot all laid out in my head for the novel. It’s going to be based in the fantasy world that I’ve been working on for the last few years. I’ve been working on this world for almost half a decade now, come to think of it. Why do I keep feeling as if I am never able to keep to a project, when I’ve clearly been working on a massive project all this time? Sure, it’s all just in my head, but it’s not as if most people have the kind of patience to keep going back to a single big project, even if it is just in their head. Not once, while thinking about my fantasy world have I been distracted and started thinking about cute puppies, instead. And you know how difficult that is. Maybe I am too hard on myself. Maybe I will finish this book, and maybe people will want to read it. Maybe it will even get a minimal number of angry reviews, like, I may get a book published without some folks trying to harass me into committing suicide for daring to think I can write. Some people may even be enthusiastic, blowing up my ego with great praise. Maybe someone will come along and tell me that they want to buy the rights to make my book into a movie or a television series. Maybe I will get rich? Maybe I will get famous! Woo! Success here I come!
Well, no, here I go being insincere. That’s not what it’s about. I should be writing this book because I want to write it. Because I want to prove to myself that I am able to write it. Sure, it’s not as if there’s not a little brain goblin inside my mind whispering sweet nothings about how one day I might turn out a real respected author. One with real fans that gets to do big book tours talking about how brilliant I am, how brilliant my work is, and how brilliant things are going for me. I am not going to pretend I don’t have the same aspirations for success that others have. Inside of me you will find the same greedy piglet of an ego hungry for more adoration and more validation that you will find in any person. Humans don’t know when to quit, we always want more. But I am at least safe knowing that I will never debase myself, descending to the same depths as those inhabited by soulless grifters who go through life abusing the trust of others in order to get by. I’m sincere, in the end. I always turn out sincere, in the end. I am a good boy.
And I am also really sexy. I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before on this blog, but I am really, REALLY, sexy. Like, you wouldn’t believe it. Oh, I am so hot. And if you follow and subscribe and hit that bell, I will teach you how you can be just as sexy as I am! And buy my book! And my merch! And my new single! And of course, my new cryptocurrency, by the name of “autism-coin.” It’s going to be a real success on 4chan, let me tell ya!

[Stand My Heroes] Case File:研究対象Sの記録 (Case File: Records on Research Subject S) Event Story: Investigation ①～③ Translations
*Master-list is in progress *MC name is retained default Izumi Rei
Part 1 / Part 2
--I might have been born into this world as a “Being”, but… I do not know the contact of “Others”
“Humans” are also something that I cannot comprehend due to how absurd they are.
That’s why…That’s precisely why, I—
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Interrogation Room ☆⋅⋆
Arakida: I’m asking you if you abducted and confined eight people in an underground facility.
Male Suspect: …I apologize for that. I just wanted to see how they’d turn out in the very end.
Arakida: --
Male Suspect: I mean, aren’t you curious about it too, Mr. Officer?
Male Suspect: Aren’t you curious about what they might be hiding? About the reason fuelling them to attempt escape from the underground facility?
Male Suspect: Is it family? A lover? Friends? Their job? Interests? Or is it a promise they made?
Male Suspect: That reason only exists because they’re “Human”. But what if you were only a “Being”? Isn’t fleeing an instinct?
Male Suspect: I was simply gathering reference material for my next new work under the pen name of “Benio. SF. Takeshi”!
Sugano: (Whew, this guy’s really screwed up in the head.)
Arakida: --Real name: Akao Takeshi. So, you’re admit that you’ve confined these people.
Male Suspect: Like I was saying! I’ve only done this all in light of attaining material for my next sublime masterpiece—
Arakida: …I know of such writers who do that, but you’re a totally different case.
Sugano: (Seems like this’ll be a long and gruelling process…)
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Investigation Planning Division ☆⋅⋆
Natsume: --Oh? They say that the writer “Benio. SF. Takeshi” has been arrested.
Aoyama & Yui: Benio…?
Rei: Is that a pen-name…?
Natsume: That’s right. Seems like hhis real name’s “Akao Takeshi (28)”
Natsume: Arrested on grounds of Kidnapping, Assault and Attempted Murder.
Natsume: He’s a pretty popular young author out there. He’s even No.1 Trending on Social Media.
Rei: Heh…Oh, you’re right. He’s even on the top when I search him up on the net.
I clicked on the records we had on him on my laptop. The words “Investigation Department One” entered my field of vision.
Yui: …I see. “New Generation Writer SF, someone who’s works can also be enjoyed by the Young Generation.”
Aoyama: This is the first time I’m hearing of him, though.
Imaoji: It seems like he first gained popularity through publishing a series of short stories on the net.
Natsume: His popular work’s a science fiction set in the near future where a guy eats the female as a part of the mating routine…ugh.
Aoyama: What morbid taste.
Rei: “His motive was to gather reference material for his new work, and he admitted as such during interrogation.” –Or so it’s written here.
Yui: Looks like the eight people he kept captive all managed to escape just fine.
Natsume: It’s also written here that one of the eight people held captive managed to escape and made it to the nearest Police Box in the area.
Imaoji: Wow.
Rei: The guy who escaped also provided his motive for escaping the place during an interrogation.
Aoyama: “It’s my Wedding Anniversary, so I absolutely had to get out of there”, huh.
Rei: That’s a pretty romantic reason, all things considered.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
The conversation ended with us coming to a joint conclusion; no matter what had gone down in that place, it was a good thing that all the victims managed to escape unscathed.
--A few days later.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Inside the Car ☆⋅⋆
Seki: I’m sure you must be tired from walking around all morning. Should we grab lunch somewhere before heading back? My treat.
Seki-san and I had spent the entire early afternoon investigating the area where a new drug was rumoured to have been circulating.
Rei: Thank you so much! I think I’m starting to get a little hungry.
Seki: We’ve been at it all morning after all; good work. We’ve managed to attain some remarkable information so let’s go get a good meal.
Seki: Is there anything you’d like to eat?
Rei: Let’s see…I think I’ll settle for something Japanese. A set meal, maybe?
Seki: Nice. Seems like there are lots of stores around here that sell those too.
Rei: That’s right. It caught my eye when I saw it through the car’s windscreen.
Seki: ----The one over by the traffic light seems like it has a carpark.
“Exquisite Set Meals, 700 Yen~” I caught sight of the flag sparkling under the sun.
Rei: I’m rather interested in whatever their Exquisite Set Meal is.
Seki: Shall we settle for that shop then?
Rei: Okay!
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Izakaya ☆⋅⋆
Shop-keeper: Welcome! How many people?
Seki: Two…
Rei: (It’s pretty crowded in here…)
The store wasn’t very big and one could see that it was a full-house at a single glance.
Shop-keeper: Sorry, will a shared seating be alright with you?
I met Seki-san’s gaze and affirmed him that “I’m okay with that” with a nod.
Seki: We’ll take that, thank you.
Shop-keeper: Thank you very much! Two people; shared seating!
I could hear joyful and enthusiastic calls of “Welcome!” from coming from the kitchen area as we headed to our seats. And then--
Sugano: --AH.
Rei: Ah.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Izakaya ☆⋅⋆
Sugano-kun and Asagiri-san were seated at the table we were led to.
Seki: What a coincidence.
Asagiri: Indeed. Feel free.
Saying that, they both stood up from where they were seated and moved further in to allow us space to join them.
Rei: Thank you so much.
We proceeded to seat ourselves at the table, only to realize that that said table was devoid of food.
Rei: Did you just arrive?
Asagiri: What sharp inference skills you have. That’s right.
Sugano: The Seasonal Set Meals here are really good and they change every season.
Seki: I’m guessing that that’d be the Fried Oyster Set right now?
Sugano: Yup. It’s crunchy and juicy and absolutely delectable!
Rei: Ahh…I can already taste and feel the oysters.
Sugano: Haha. But the Scallop and Ebi Mixed-Fry set is also a pretty bad boy!
Rei: Ahhhh…I can taste the Mixed-fry set already, but my stomach still has the oysters in mind…
Sugano: Haha!
We chatted for a while before an employee came by to serve us water and to hand us wet towels and the menu.
Seki: What are you settling for, Izumi?
Rei: Hmm, I’m still thinking.
Asagiri: I’ll take the Ramen Set.
Sugano: Tsukasa-san, were you even listening to my recommendations?
Asagiri: I’ve actually been craving ramen all morning.
Sugano: Actually, is there even a time where you don’t crave ramen…?
Asagiri: What a stupid question.
Rei: (He really like his ramen…)
In the end, Asagiri-san took the Ramen Set while Seki-san and I took the Fried Oyseter Set. Sugano-kun decided on the Mixed-fry Set and that concluded our order.
Sugano: Oh, come to think of it. There was that one guy in Benio SF’s short stories who loved ramen and was supervising a shady research facility.
Sugano: I recall that he was portrayed to be able to talk for days on end when it comes to anything ramen-related.
Both: ----
Asaigiri: Don’t go giving out investigation information at the drop of a hat like that— Or so, I’d like to say.
Asagiri: But that was something that had already uploaded onto the internet to begin with, isn’t it?
Sugano: That’s right.
Sugano: Rei and Seki-san, have you guys read it before? Benio’s light novel that’s been the talk of the masses recently.
Asagiri: A Science Fiction that takes place in the near future— It’s nice to hear and all but right now, it all boils down to being a criminal’s childish delusions.
Rei: A Science Fiction that takes place in the near future…
Seki: Is that the story that gave birth to his motive as a criminal?
Sugano: Yes…Oh, right. This shop is really thorough in their preparation of food, so it’ll take some time before our food arrives.
Sugano: Shall we talk about his childish delusions as a makeshift way to kill time while we wait? This time in our own style.
Them: ----

⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
--This facility was where the “Special Ability Programme” took place.
It also housed “Special Subjects” within its compound. This facility will be…
Watabe: We needed a “Special Communicator” in this place. That’s why I reached out to you with an offer.
Natsume: It’s nice to meet you, Number 1230.
Rei: Am I to be referred to my number at all times…?
Yui: There are a lot of subjects housed here. We’ve also got many communicators like you.
Yui: So it’ll be easier if we just referred to everyone by their serial numbers. It reduces the complications involved.
Rei: …Alright, I understand.
Rei: So…why was I called to this facility?
Yui: Allow me to rephrase your question. “Why is a normal Office Lady (OL) like me who works for an ordinary company-“
Yui: “Being scouted by the Special Research Facility that’s being funded by the National Budget?” --How’s that sound?
Rei: Thank you for translating…
Watabe: The answer’s—
Watabe: Who knows?
Rei: Who knows…?
Watabe: No, sorry. We don’t know what the requirements are when it comes to selecting a communicator.
Natsume: In other words, we only know what the job pertains.
Natsume: Communicators generally face the inmates, in other words you’re going to go up face-to-face with the subjects.
Rei: I’m going up against them? …How is it generally like?
Yui: It’s obvious, don’t you think? You’ll do so with your heart, body, and mind. Basically, you’ll be communicating with them.
Rei: Huh…? I understand the part about the heart, but…wait, what do you mean by body-
Yui: Exactly what I just said.
Rei: --!?
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
Rei: C-Communicating with them with my body…? Regardless if it’s on orders by the country, this is a little…
Rei: I can’t do it! I’ve never met them before in my entire life, and it isn’t even ethical in the first place and—
Watabe: Haha…
Rei: !
Natsume: You’re jumping to conclusions way too quickly.
Yui: Seems like I’ve taken this joke a little too far.
Rei: Joke…?
Watabe: There’s only one job for a communicator,
Watabe: To be chat buddies with the subjects since they cannot leave this facility.
Watabe: It’s a straight-to-the-point job with no questionable ethics in play.
Natsume: Well, you’ll still be eaten whole if you let your guard down in here, though.
Rei: Wha-
Yui: Have you not learnt?
Rei: Ugh…it’s a joke again, isn’t it?
Natsume: Sorry, sorry.
Watabe: You can rest assured. Everyone here isn’t all too different from us who lead normal lives.
Watabe: So you can just talk to them like how you do to everyone without base for suspicion.
Yui: Just treat them like normal humans.
Rei: (The more we talk about it, the more confused I get about what I’m even doing in such a facility…)
Rei: Why are the subjects inmates here anyway? What’s the motive?
???: You’ll best bring that up to the chief.
Rei: Huh…?
???: --
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
Rei: (Who are they…?)
Imaoji: Nice to meet you, No. 1230. I’m Imaoji, the supervisor of this facility.
Asagiri: I’m Asagiri.
Arakida: …Arakida.
Imaoji: We’ll be protecting you from everything and anything while you’re here.
Asagiri: I’ll bring you to the chief.
Arakida: ……
Rei: I’ll be in your care then…
Watabe: See you, No. 1230.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Chief’s Office ☆⋅⋆
Imaoji: --Pardon the intrusion.
Arakida: We’ve brought. No. 1230.
???: Right on time, I see.
Seki: Glad to see that you’re here. This is the Hattori, the Chief, and I’m Seki, the Vice-chief.
Rei: I look forward to working with you.
Hattori: Chief is just a title.
Hattori: The real Chief of this place is the one who created this place to begin with.
Rei: ?
Seki: This facility was built to isolate people with special conditions and to shield them away from the rest of the world.
Hattori: In the name of justice and love.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Chief’s Office ☆⋅⋆
Rei: ……? Special condition? Whatever do you mean?
Seki: I can’t divulge that.
Rei: Eh…?
Hattori: Well, let’s just leave the complicated parts at that—How about you go meet them instead and see for yourself?
Seki: Let’s bring you to a subject to talk to, where you can do your job as a communicator.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
I followed the supervisor with no questions asked as he took the lead before finally stopping in front of a door.
Arakida: --Here we are.
Imaoji: We’re normally stationed right outside of the room so we’ll be leaving you here.
Rei: I-I’m supposed to go in there alone…?
Asagiri: We’re able to tell whenever there’s an anomaly in the inmate.
Rei: …Alright, I understand.
Imaoji: Before you enter, there’s just one other thing I have to tell you.
Rei: ?
Imaoji: Having a relationship with an inmate is forbidden, so please do watch out.
Rei: I don’t think a relationship’s even possible, given the atmosphere in here…
Imaoji: Heh. Well then, feel free to open the door.
I sucked in a deep breath and turned to face the door.
Rei: (Behind this is a subject who has become an inmate…)

???: --Oh! You’re here!
Rei: --!?
???: Come on, come on in. Let’s start~
Rei: (He’s way more cheery and optimistic than I expected…)
Rei: Pardon the intrusion.
???: Haha. You can just sit over there. Are you nervous?
Rei: …Yes.
Sugano: Aren’t you an honest one! Actually, we can do away with the polite speech. No need for that here.
Rei: …Okay, sure.
???: I can’t help but to be in high spirits since this is the first time I’ve ever got a communicator assigned to me.
???: I was so excited that I didn’t manage to get even a wink of sleep last night.
Rei: Oh, me too, actually.
Sugano: You too? –Actually, what’s your name?
Rei: Oh...I’m 12-
Sugano: Not your serial number.
Rei: --Izumi Rei.
Sugano: Rei, then. I’m Sugano Natsuki!
Sugano: Hey, Rei.
He suddenly turned to look straight at me, his gaze turning into one of utter seriousness, as if he had just turned into another person; a twin of sorts.
Sugano: Let me out of this captivity.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Room ☆⋅⋆
Rei: Wha-
Sugano: Please? I’m about to go stir crazy from being kept cooped up in this place.
Rei: But…
Sugano: I’ll become yours.
Rei: I’m sorry, what…?
Sugano: I’ll give you anything within my means if you help me.
Rei: Even…Even if you tell me that…
Sugano: ----
Rei: Urk…
Sugano: Just kidding~
Rei: --!
Sugano: I’m joking. It’s just a joke~
He mentioned the word “joke” louder the second time round. He turned to look up. Following his gaze, I could see a surveillance camera mounted on the wall.
Rei: (I suppose they’re listening in to all the conversation that goes on within this room too.)
Rei: (…Well, I suppose that’s to be expected. They are inmates, after all.)
Sugano: But, you know. I’m glad to see people who come in from the “Outside”. They’re always like a breath of fresh air.
Sugano: I do talk to people like You-san, but it’s usually pretty boring in here.
Rei: You-san?
Sugano: Hm? Haven’t you met him? The chief.
Rei: Ahh, you mean Hattori-san!
Sugano: Yup, yup. Pretty handsome, isn’t he?
Sugano: Actually, all the supervisors here have a pretty high facial deviation.
Rei: Now that you mention it…I think you might be right. But, I was so nervous back when I met them, so…
Sugano: What about me?
Rei: Huh?
Sugano: How would you rate my looks?
Rei: You’re…
Sugano: Oh, wait. I think I’m better off not hearing it. I think I might just pin you down if you told me that I was worth a 100 points.
Rei: ???
Sugano: Or are you that sort of communicator, little miss comm?
Rei: I-I’m not going to do it with my body!!
Sugano: Ahaha. That’s a nice reaction. It’s really…how do I put this? Hmm…
Sugano: Like a proper human, I guess?
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
I left Sugano-kun’s room as he saw me off with a farewell line of “Come by soon again!”
Imaoji: Good work.
Rei: Oh, Good work to you too.
Imaoji: I’ll see you to your room.
Rei: Thank you so much.
Asagiri-san and Arakida-san where no where to be found, so I ended up walking alongside Imaoji-san, alone.
Imaoji: How was your first job as a communicator?
Rei: I was a nervous-wreck, overall.
Imaoji: I understand how you feel. The job this time round came by so suddenly, I’m sure you must have it hard.
Imaoji: It’s almost unheard of for a communicator to be privately scouted and hired like you were, so we fully intend to aid you to the best of our abilities.
Imaoji: Do tell us if there’s anything troubling you.
Rei: Thank you.
Imaoji: You don’t have to thank me for it.
Rei: (Whoa…he really does have good looks and a good facial variation.)
For me to be able to think of such thoughts, I suppose my initial nervousness must have worn off. And this must be all thanks to Sugano-kun, since he was such an easy person to talk to.
Imaoji: --Oh?
Rei: ?
In direct line of his vision as he came to an abrupt stop was—
Natsume: I’m telling you, this isn’t anything dangerous at all.
Arakida: Then allow me to check it.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
Rei: (The two of them are…having a dispute over something?)
Natsume: It’s fine, isn’t it? It’s not like you have anything to lose anyway.
In his hands was something that resembled a Headgear of sorts, made up of increasingly bizarre and complicated machinery parts.
Arakida: I have. I lost 3 days to sleep…
Natsume: But that was Kotaro-san’s Nutritional Drink at work so that’s not my fault!
Imaoji: What are the two of you standing around here talking about?
Natsume: Ohh, good work.
Rei: Good work today.
I got closer to where they stood and lowered my head.
Arakida: --
Imaoji: Are you asking for experiment assistance again?
Natsume: He’s lumping my experiments together with Kotaro-san’s warped ones!
Natsume: Even though all mine does is to only measure your brain waves!
Arakida: Absolutely not.
Natsume: You seem pretty adamant about it.
Arakida: Tsukasa-san told me to never trust you lot from the Research Department whenever you dish out the word “only”.
Natsume: ……Tsuduki Makoto’s pre-release book.
Arakida: !!
Rei: Wait, you mean THAT famous author?
Natsume: He actually came down here not too long ago seeking data for his new work since it was something science-related.
Natsume: Tsuduki-sensei said that he didn’t mind showing us researchers his new work if we promised not to accidentally leak word of it.
Natsume: So I thought that maybe I could share it with you as thanks for your help.
Arakida: Urk…
Natsume: You heard me, No. 1230. You’ll be able to read it if you cooperate with me; how about it?
Rei: It’s a new work yet to be released to the world?
Natsume: Yup!
Arakida: Damnit…
Rei: But that Headgear…
Natsume: It really only just measures your brain waves. It’s absolutely nothing dangerous at all.
Rei: Then—
Arakida: Wait.
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Hallway ☆⋅⋆
Natsume: What is it; Arakida-san?
Arakida: ……I’ll do it.
Natsume: Huh?
Arakida: I’ll cooperate with you.
Natsume: But I’ve already passed it over to No. 1230-
Arakida: Ngh…
Rei: (I-If he’s making such a pained face over this, then I suppose…)
Rei: I’ll back out if he’s willing.
Arakida: --
Rei: (He looks really happy about it…)
Imaoji: Heh.
Natsume: Is that so? I suppose I’ll have to ask Arakira-san to do the honours then.
Arakida: Of course.
He took the Headgear and plopped it atop his head.
--And when he did, an AI spoke from the device, stating “Activation Complete”. …Suddenly, plumes of smoke started billowing from the device.
Arakida: !?
Imaoji: Smoke is…
Rei: Wait a minute, isn’t this…Isn’t this thing burning!?
Natsume: Huh? Wait, this brain wave measuring device’s…
Natsume: Ah! I accidentally brought the one that Kotaro-san prodded at!
Arakida: OI! I CAN’T GET THIS OFF…!!
Natsume: Oh no. Kotaro-san might be the only one who knows how to remove it.
Natsume: Please run to the Research Lab.
Arakida: THIS IS WHY I DIDN’T WANT TO DO IT…!
The both of them made a mad dash for the Laboratory and disappeared down the hallway.
Rei: W-Will they be okay…?
Imaoji: Of course. It’s a usual occurrence after all.
Rei: It’s something that’s normal…?
Rei: (Now I really wonder if I can survive in this facility…)
I rubbed at my eyes that had gotten slightly teary from all the smoke the device atop Arakida-san’s head had been emitting…
─────────────────────────⋅…⋆⋅☆
⋆⋅☆ Research Facility: Room ☆⋅⋆
Sugano: What’s with that! That’s so amusing! I want to be there too to see it with my own eyes.
Rei: You think so…? I didn’t see Arakida-san this morning.
Sugano: He might have just overslept. –Want to go pay him a visit?
Rei: Wait…Can you even leave this room?
Sugano: Sure I can. There’s a condition though.
Ran: A condition?
Sugano: You’ve got to put a collar on me.
Rei: (A collar!?)

Kpop ship for Anon
Hey everyone! Okay so, after a crazy week, I was finally able to finish a ship! This ship is for an anon who didn’t give themselves a name, so anon, I hope you recognize your description and you enjoy!
Based off of your request, I learned these things about you:
You’re 5′2 with short brown hair and big brown eyes
You’re also half Saudi and half Morocan
You’re artistic
You like to try different fashion styles- and most fashionable among your friends
You’re described as friendly and you also enjoy volunteering me too!
Some hobbies of yours: drawing, reading, playing video games, and shopping
It takes a lot for you to get mad, but when you do-watch out
You’re also an Aquarius OMG ME TOO
And you’re also very smart
And in your request, you asked to be shipped with BTS, NCT, and Stray Kids! This is my first Stray Kids ship as well! Let’s do this ^^
BTS: Taehyung
Alrighty, you two are smol bean who want to giggle, love, and spread love around the world. And by the way, Taehyung would be completely head over heels for you, so keep that in mind. I’m not saying he would be that guy that would circle his life ENITRELY around you, but you are a big part in his life, so you are in top priorities. In this ship, I think Taehyung would be drawn to you almost instantly. If looks could kill, imagine what happens to him when he learns more about you. Taehyung would admire your short hair, let’s just put that out there to the world. He would love to play with your hair, twirling the little strands in his fingers, and you also look really good with short hair, so, he can’t resist. Taehyung would also love that you’re super personable, humble, and down to earth as well. I think your humbleness would be Taehyung’s favorite thing about you. There’s something about when a person is humble that makes them so irresistible and Taehyung is our humble king, so like yeah, he needs a queen(or king if you identify differently) sooooooo… (: Moving right along, Taehyung would be the best boyfriend ever. Again, laying out the facts here, but you’ll understand why. You’re forever showered in affection, he’s 110% honest with you, he’s the best listener, he’s sympathetic, you name is, Tae’s it. He’s just a whole package deal bro. I can see honesty being a big part in your relationship bc without trust, you can’t have a relationship, especially since Tae is a world wide known celebrity. Of course there are other factors about relationships that are extremely important, but if Tae isn’t honest with you for certain parts while he’s gone, you can’t trust him ya know? But you never have to worry about a thing. A penny for a thought, I think he would admire your skill and love for video games. He would love to see you light up about a certain update and he would love to buy you merch from your fav games. Date night is crazy and spontaneous, it’s Taehyung. I wanna touch on this bc this is perfect: fashionpassion. We all know Tae is a fashion icon, but you two would experiment so much with your styles and you both enjoy dressing each other as well Couples outfits or matching outfits are a must, how can you not do that? Lastly, PDA. Taehyung is a puppy/bear hybrid ball of fluff, so he’s always wanting hugs and kisses. He enjoys latching himself around you so he can get your love. You don't mind it, it’s quite cute and you also find it endearing because Tae isn’t afraid to be needy. Lastly, kisses all over. Soft peck and cheek kisses. Imagine Tae’s soft lips pecking yours- ahh, I’m jealous.
NCT: Yuta
The world is your oyster. That was the first thing I thought of when I made this ship decision. You and Yuta would have the best friend lover sort of love and you’re both spontaneous and enjoy life in the moment. I wanna emphasize spontaneous because you two get and go and you two are very much in love, so buckle up. Also, just because Yuta is very mischievous and stubborn- don’ t let that fool you. Yuta would be a needy boyfriend. He’d enjoy having you around, knowing you’re close, it’d help him stay calm. And Yuta is also not afraid to show that he is needy for you. It doesn’t matter if he’s voicing his need to you in front of the boys or on a V-Live to the fans, if he misses you, he’ll be like ‘yeAAAHHH, I miss Y/n.’ You would also serve as his rock as well. I really like to think you’re down to earth and chill, and that’s what Yuta would need. He would also need someone who’s understanding and a good listener, and you fit that description perfectly. Yuta would always have a safe place to go to and he’s extremely soft when he’s around you. He would have the cute little habit of asking you questions like ‘you still love me right?’ or ‘where do you see ourselves in the future?’ and he also likes to share his grievances when it comes to work. He always asks you if he can vent though, but like, of course you will listen to him. Moving right along, when you and Yuta aren’t soft and cozy at home, you two are wilder than bucks. You would always tag along with Yuta when he would go out with the boys, and sometimes you would even get to travel with them. You love going because you get to see your love do what he loves, and you also get loads of inspiration from the places you go and you’re nearly in a state of euphoria every time you travel. And keep in mind, you’re gonna have Yuta wanting you to participate in activities with the boys, and of course sometimes the boys want you on their team against Yuta. You don’t mind it, a good game of friendly competition, right? I just thought of a cute concept: you two and cartoons. I’m very sure that Yuta would always want you to watch cartoons with him. It would be a cute little tradition/date night thing where you two get some food and snuggle up maybe sometimes making a blanket fort and you binge cartoons. Another thing I can see you two doing is when Yuta is home resting, he’s asleep in your lap and you’re reading a book playing with this hair. PDA is also very needy. His favorite thing to do is give you back hugs, back hugs for days. Super soft hand holding with his thumb rubbing yours, and forehead pecks. WOWO THIS GOT SUEPR SOFT I’M DED.
Stray Kids: Minho
Oki doki, here we are, in my very first Stray Kids ship, I hope I do them justice. Okay so, you and Minho are super soft cat parents and I am deceased because of it. To the public eye, you two are sort of shy and a quiet couple, but in reality, you and Minho are happy go lucky babes who are giggle and goofy. Straight up, Minho would be your saving grace. If you ever need any sort of pick me up, I can grantee you that Minho will save the day. Whether you are sad, or mad, or frustrating about something, you can count on Minho to do something cute and goofy and you’ll be smiling from ear to ear, not knowing what you were upset about five seconds ago. I can also see Minho bringing out your more extroverted side, so if you two are in public, don't be surprised if you two do something goofy and you’re trending on Instagram for being #couplegoals. You two would go out a lot, sometimes for date nights, most of the time not, and you two love to go out and have an adventure. You two would shop a lot, Minho getting kitty toys for the babies and you get to pamper yourself, although it’s normally Minho doing the pampering. You two get matching outfits sometimes too. The outfits are never identical, but the color ways would be similar and the outfits would compliment each other and you’d look super cute. Again, you two just have that much power that if you wore matching outfits, the internet would lose its shit. Moving right along, you and Minho both have your share of staying in at home. He’s got the three little babies at home he has to take care of, and since he’s super busy with Stray Kids, he would take every opportunity to spend time with his babies as much as he can. You love seeing him with his babies, it’s a softer side of Minho we don’t get to see enough. So like, we count on you to give us that soft content, hah. Playing around with video games is also a must as well, again, friendly competition is always cute and fun. FOOD. DATE NIGHT AND FOOD. LISTEN. Grocery store adventures are one thing, and the main entrée hah, get it?: the cooking process is even more fun. Recipe testing is also a MUST MUST MUST. Sometimes when the recipe fails, you two end up having more fun and more laughs. Sometimes there is a grease fire-- but no blood no foul. But of course you two would find some holy grails and you’d make some bombass foods for dinner/date night. And we can’t forget Jisung- he’s almost your worst enemy. You two lowkey bicker over how much bff and S/o time Minho should get, and Minho just lays back on the couch and chuckles bc you two get so frustrated so easy with each other. Lastly PDA, soft and clingy, both giving and receiving. You both enjoy a lot of hand holding, you like for him to hug you constantly, and he loves to whine and get as many kisses from you as he can. (:

platonic relationship
i have a bone to pick with plato. see the socratic method is basically the scene in montynpython in which a woman is weighed against a peice of wood to determine if she is a witch. and this is pretty much also the measurement system women use for me judge a cardio junkie by his ability to withstand smoke fumes. ive been up all night listening to eminem because i wish that i had the mysogny that he had because logically i should be mad at these females who lie to me but apparently developmentally theyre limited.
so pretty much i just want my neck not to hurt and my side and platonic love isn really the kind which could support my lumbar spine but if you think im angry you are right and maybe if i rhyme my brain will work this time and ill finally be able to explain was never targeted at my objects of affections at all i like to walk around the mall see a cutie with a skirt on and she sees me looking at her tells her grandmother to leave her there because this place looks fun as she smiles at me there comes abu my friend who judges me and judges you and as i stare at her i can tell she wants me too probably more emotionally mature than my mom and a virgin with her skirt on and its workun but i have the confidence of a plastic bag floating in the wind shes cheesing while i hide behind her even though shes 4 11 and im 6 4 and because he was there i didnt pass because i dont cross paths but even thinking about having a girlfriend makes him mad. if shes too young for me i would have figured that out but it doesnt help that no matter how young or how old even the weather lady im told shes not right for me so will you make up your mind please can someone define maturity because apparently there is a reverse correlation between it and age and socrates was no sage im not really impressed that he drank poison similarly i smoke weed which takes me back to age three and birthday parties then i think about how much my life failed but only because everyone always stood in front of me. so snitch on me when i talk to you when youre in front of me at your desk and say your story about butterflies is the best begging middle and end. meawhile i havent even gotten to the first page of my legend of the sword it had a much more compliated plot which was cut off. then tell me i didnt count to tenthousand while you were listening to the teacher say the is spelled t h e and put me in a remedial reading class with a bunch of girls and address us as the girls so we can read books about a mouse who lives with his family in a house but if girls and boys are the same how can you explain i was the only one in that group to be bumped up to the advanced on by 2nd grade. i guess reading the encylopedia of animals wasnt a wase memorized their latin names bufo sativa phylobates. so by third grade i was getting so good at math that they took me out of class and had me testing material meant for 5th graders and it was really lame how can i explain all the flaws in the system to all the other people who were also ruined by it.
finally one girl who was definitely old enough for me waved at me when i looked at her and i got a boner and walked over to the ladies at the tea shop who looked at me with a disgusted look on their faces then some gangster looking dude older than i am replaces me with his hand on her shoulder.
before i was 18 i could beat up my dad and ever since then i knew not many people in my generation had much of a chance against me but i looked so thin they were not understanding. high iq causing depression have anothe smoke session even though you have athsma everyone remember to complain that i prefer to get high off one big hit i stayed in high school till i graduated but i left.
unfortunately with brain damage i could still make straight as which made me think i was ok gpa jumping above 3.68 when i only show up an agerage of 3 days.
practice your sky hook do your pushups get embaressed when an asian princess sees you do them 20 hanlaps perfect form and im not even a jock wow id better stop. next thing the girl i like is sitting on my lap in class telling me she likes me back shes sitting on my desk shes rubbing my face my life isnt gay justnsaynsomehing and youll get laid.
nah ill let some kid with adhd steal her seat and ill help him with math instead because i didnt tell her this but im alread braindead. my soul probably died with my pet lizard or my kitten perhaps it was internet addiction.
what makes you think youll be make it as a porn star? you know im hot. well maybe i just didnt want you to act like a slut. i still remember the blonde who waves at me and smiled my freshman year it was clear that the world was my oyster the only problem was i couldn make my own choices.
i wanted to be an actor but i was so good at acting nobody got it. was so good at debating everyone liked to argue. was so succinct couldnt get the last word. so fast nobody would pass me the ball so dominant in wrestling i had to pretend i couldnt win just to have a friend.
pretty much i feel like the last cro magonon stuck on an island without charlotte saisselin bounce baby bounce three story house you look so cute in a blouse. hey look theres charlottes stalker i think il wave my arms around.
bounce baby is a reference to eigth grade i was watching a 100 meter race and then some black guy said that she never raced again. weed turned her from a goth into a wigger and after that i figured id become one too but it wasnt till 2009 i started to dress like you. what happened was i got some clothes from olympia sports to wear as warmups on the basketball court and to work as a salesman i shaved my head smiled knowing i was dead but still i couldnt even say i wanted to kiss girl without that not being cool enough for my nephew and her bowl broke too
it fell from her car on the pavement and she said that he didnt even get to hit it.
so now im living in my dads room on the floor and finally my back isnt sore i have a well paying job im away from mom i have iron lungs and dad still doesnt approve because now i play too much basketball.
hi im interested in going to california. i meant connecticut but califonia will do since its warm there. sure steve come on out west but read the fine print your 20s are dead.
prove you wrong shame on me. dont prove you wrong brag proudly. stay out west and let your dad die. watch him act like an asshole at home back east one more time. your reward for having surived on the street for years as a middle clas kid
your friend says he thought you were dead. by the way he has this girlfriend in connectiut. oh you were the one who set him up with her? theres a whole website or three centered around her?
better get you to spend your money on heroin and make you seem like a jerk in front of my dad. my excuse is im skitzophrenic.
all because my dad shamed me for growing up even crazier than him. thats why i called up my friend and asked him to date my girlfriend.
there must have been something in those amphetamines which made me keep stopping at her house. i found them up on the shelf years after i tried to spill them out.
it was the first time an adult had ever called me immature. he also said my handwriting was bad and i needed a cure. talking to him i began to get red where even to begin? i have a lot of prblems at home and this isnt fair. see my dad camps in the yard and gets drunk watches us through windows andmy sister punches me in the head. mom pretty much works till shes in bed.
every day she watches the same soap opera and oprah which i record for her on tape. my sisters friends call me gay so i go over and play with the kids from the other neighorhood all day.
one of them listens to a lot of eminem. his favorite song is if you dont like it you can suck my dick. hes in reform school and proud to be off his meds. when i talk about biking down a steep hill and blending into traffic he thinks i meannliterall blend in.
two gay twin brothers end of the road honor roll kids. play baseball and have alcoholic parents. hey ill tell the girl steve likes he likes her then she will never talk to him again. accept his chalenge to a fight and he will bang my head into a tree which is the same thing i did to another kid who tried to jump me but got sperated from his friends.
refuse to dance with the only girl in middle school who has hips. make fun of the girls intelligence who sits next to you in math and has giant tits. refuse to eat candy off the first girls tounge then your science teacher who pushed pills on you flips on the tv its 911
stare at a girl all day and say you dont like her. girls think youre gay if you have a boner. telll me a calculator doesnt mattrer for a test but i do worse without one. make a flag pencil it isnt cool enough for the other kids.
sit with the retarded kids timmy and jimmy. watch nick all night fresh prince and bill cosby.
your sister wont stop torturing you so hold her at knife point. buy knives at school try to resell them and for the first time ever the kids you sold them to ge caught witth knives.
stay in the program with three teachers who gave up on you. one leaves to become a dean suddenly your grades go up. kids are jealous because you dont do homework. girls smile at you knowing that your test scores are high despite that.
throw shotput as far as a high school kid without any exercise or practice. run around the track dozens of times in pants you still arent good enough yet.
go to an alternative program reluctantly in high school its sort of like jail. everyone smells like cigarettes the air is stale. this isnt good for you but we will make you think if you leave you will fail.

Seller's Market?

Seller's Market?
First things first.
As a rule, one should avoid getting into arguments with strangers on the internet.
Having said that, a couple of weeks ago I got into an argument with a stranger on the internet. It did not go well.
I joined a Facebook group (I think someone invited me to join). I’m not going to name the group but it was a science fiction and fantasy oriented group. A member posted about buying science fiction art and he expressed his opinion that it was very difficult to buy good science fiction art. He went so far as to claim that science fiction art was a seller’s market.
Well, when someone says something so asinine I have to respond. I took the bait, disagreed, got into an argument, posted the link to my online art portfolio to prove my bona fides as a science fiction artist, immediately got criticized for doing so (and had the quality of my work insulted) and then got temporarily banned from posting by my opponent for trying to press home my point.
Yeah, that’s the other bit of advice I have for you. When you join a Facebook group, starting an argument with the group’s moderator is not to best way to introduce yourself. (In my defence, I didn’t know he was the guy who started the group.)
However, I still think that his assertion that art is a seller’s market is completely wrong.
True, the art market has big names. These are the illustration rock stars. I’m talking about huge talents like Boris Vallejo, Greg Hildebrandt and Joe Jusko. These are the rock stars of the art world and for them, it is a seller’s market. They have gotten to the point where they don’t have to sell if they don’t want to.
Eric Lofgren
But then, every profession has their rock stars. Writing, Acting and… well… rock and roll. Look, the fact is that you can’t hire Lady Gaga to sing at your event unless you are very rich or you’ve just become President of the United States. And even then, Lady Gaga is in a position to say no.
You can’t hire the artist that everybody knows because everybody knows them.
But there are many artists between that level of recognition and the lowliest beginner. There are a LOT of artists of varying quality of various styles and many of them are hustling on a daily basis to get gigs. Very few of them are in a position to say no to a job. And artists are easier to find these days then they have ever been. Deviantart, Artstation, ConceptArt, are just a few of the websites where artists go to showcase their work. Hell, even Instagram has showcases of artists of varying skill levels that will be happy to produce art for you. If you want art for your video game, the cover of your book, pre-production for your indy film project, you can go to any of those sites and pick and choose which artist’s work match your project best. It has never been easier for a buyer to find art for their project.
Does that sound like a seller’s market to you?
Erik Allan Johnson
I have been a professional illustrator since I was in my twenties. I have been an art director for several magazines and websites, culminating in a recent stint as guest art director for the upcoming issue of Amazing Stories Magazine. I have been both a seller and a buyer of science fiction and fantasy art in a professional capacity. And I state, categorically, that it is not a seller’s market. It is most certainly a buyer’s market, but with one important caveat, which I will get to in a minute.
So, really… I mean, really, really... The art market is a buyer’s market in the same way that writer’s markets are buyer’s markets. In today’s On-Demand economy everything is a buyer’s market.
Ingrid Hardy
Look, I am an artist and I know lots of other artists and I have heard a lot of them complaining that they can’t get gigs. Some of them even give away their art in exchange for *gasp* EXPOSURE! Very few artists can pick and choose the projects that they work on if they want to keep a roof over their heads. There is the old cliché about the “starving artist” and in many cases, it’s no cliché, it’s the truth!
But here comes that caveat that I warned you about.
It’s a buyer’s market if you have the money. Sure you can want great art to accompany your project and it is easier than ever to find and if you are lucky and slightly unscrupulous you can probably get something for free. But this is true of everything. As I said, you want to get Lady Gaga to sing the national anthem your initials had better be POTUS. But there’s no shortage of singers, even talented singers, to sing the anthem at your community arena before a game. But you have to be willing to pay. You could convince your sister’s cousin to do it because she sang in the choir a couple of years ago, but you’re going to get what you pay for.
MD Jackson
The point is, everything is a buyer’s market if you have money. If you have the cash the world is your oyster. Dinner at the Ritz, a Broadway show, drinks at Bar 54. But even if you don’t you can still choose between the finest fast food outlets in your area, a movie on Netflix and beer from the fridge. Nothing is denied you.
Same with art. If you have the cash it is easy to find artists of relatively high skill levels to accommodate your needs. But you don’t even need a lot of cash, because there are plenty of artists who will fit the bill and not break the bank.
I’ll even help you out (and give a plug to my friends while I’m doing it).
Eric Lofgren is a Victoria based commercial illustrator. His specialties include cover art, collectible card art and interior book illustrations. He’s a stand-up guy, he delivers and his rates are reasonable.
You like cartoons and Caricatures? Erik Johnson is your guy. He’s done work for The Salvation Army and Nickelodeon Studios.
You like Star Wars? You like horses? Ingrid Hardy specializes in sketch cards.
There’s plenty more. I’ve picked less than a handful. Then there’s me. I’m not the best artists in the world but I am reliable, my rates are reasonable and I am a delight to work with.
Here endeth the lesson. Take that, stranger on the internet!

The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt sentence starters
PART 7
“This is boring! So you kissed somebody. Everybody kisses things. White people kiss their dogs.” “Yeah, that boy's gay. Gay as a penguin. Educate yourself, read a nature video.” “Very well. I'm sure you're right. There's no way _________ is gay. Which means you wouldn't care if I tried to seduce him.” “I'm planning a seduction.” “A seduction? I remember those days. A cocktail at the bar, a conversation held only with the eyes, and then the two of you retire to the bathroom.” “_________, cherish this time. Someday you'll wake up and you'll say, "Who's that old woman in the mirror?" And then she'll punch you and you'll say: "That's not a mirror, that's an open window." “Am I not a pretty young thing anymore? Am I a bear now? Or a daddy? Or a Huxtable?” “Are you asking me for advice because I seem like a wise old black man?” “Straight guys can be vegetarians.

Call me in ten years.” “If I've learned anything from this city, it's this. Act you belong and the world's your oyster.” “Eyes up here. You don't get these feet. Feet are for good boys. Not for liars and cheaters.” “Your first wife turned fifty, I know. And I would never do that to you.” “You haven't been home in months!

Prologue To A Travel Blog
Siri here, and yes, I know that means literally nothing to the majority of you right now. Hopefully, it will one day should you keep reading and eventually meet my other two co-conspirators, Casey and Erin, on this, project? That sounds like too much work, to be honest; we’ve all done that school thing and we’re quite done with it. Well, one is done and two of us are almost done. So let’s call this whole thing a challenge. We’re competitive people and this isn’t going to be an easy ten months until take off, but at least we’re getting things rolling, now. It’s not just hearsay anymore.
Some people say the first sentence of anything is the hardest to write. Others say it’s just getting started at all. For me? Nah, it’s the damn title. There are too many options because let’s be real, it is not the first sentence or first paragraph that you’ll use to judge the ever loving crap out of myself and my friends. It’s the title of this first post. This first chapter of what, I hope, will be the first of many (also aptly titled) chapters. According to the internet (or least what I’ve seen), I can go one of two routes in search of the perfect “first chapter title” for a travel blog, like this one will be.
1) Something dramatic. “The World is Our Oyster” or “This is Only the Beginning!”, “A Reflection”, “Live like There’s no Tomorrow <3″… you get it. In a world so obsessed with standing out there isn’t a lot of original content anymore, but be dramatic and you’re sure to turn at least two heads. Pick a title that says “I’m contemplative!” and people will come flocking over to see if you can bestow upon them some deep epiphany about life and existence.
Or
2) Something boring. “My name is, beep boop, and this is a blog about traveling, beep boop.” *insert generic robot noises here*, “Traveling 101”, “Chapter One”… bleh. No thanks.
So I’ll be a little turd nugget and make this the prologue, that way when one of my cohorts writes the next chapter they have to pick the first real title. Sorry, guys? (I’m not really sorry.)
Now, don’t get me wrong, I am not claiming to be original in any way shape or form. Considering I would like to be a published author one day that’s probably not the best thing to be boasting, but again, let’s get real. There are so many travel blogs and YouTube channels, and Instagrams hidden in every corner of the vast expanse of the interwebs that this can’t possibly be an original concept.
So I can’t promise that you won’t find anything you’ve already read before. I can’t promise that you’ll find amazing and new and innovative ideas and I definitely will not promise to solve any existential crisis that you’re going through (but hey if you find a way to kick that to the curb, please pass that little nugget of wisdom my way!).
What can I promise you? Good question. Very good question. I think it’s safe to say I can promise you some sound advice on how to get around this small and yet oh so large world. I can promise you’ll learn a few things on a vast expanse of topics that may or may not have anything to do with traveling. I can definitely promise that you’ll get some good laughs out of this.
We’re fairly average people in most ways- in others not so much, but that’s our charm. We are the average young adults who just want to toss the “real world” aside for a solid chunk of time and go on an adventure in the real world. We’ve been around before, not as much as a lot of others out there. We don’t have a stupendous budget and we most definitely don’t know all the answers, but we hope to impart some practical advice for the practical traveler.
I hope, at the very least, we can inspire you.
Not just to travel, because it’s not for everyone and we respect that, but to try something new, cook a new food, make art, listen to a new song, learn to count in a different language, dance a new dance, pick up an instrument, or write. Maybe to go out and protect something that means a lot to you or to talk about your passions and find the courage to follow silly dreams. Anything, really.
So here it goes- onwards to June 1, 2019. That’s the day we’re leaving to travel (most of) the world, by the way.

Dating in Never-Never Land
Thursday, March 16, 2017
Dating in Austin is no easy feat. You might be thinking, “Whaaaat? That’s not what I heard.” Probably because you saw an article ranking us as one of the top U.S. cities for singles.
So, let me be more clear regarding this ranking. Yes, Austin is a great city with lots of activities and fun things to do if you are single. And a lot of options for dating. However, it is not the best city if you are seeking a serious relationship.
Why?
Because there is a serious epidemic in our beloved city. It’s a plague and it’s been spreading. It’s impacted many. It’s called PPS. You may know someone who suffers from this.
The guys in Austin are a bunch of Peter Pans who want to stay little boys. They don’t want to grow up and, more importantly, they don’t need to because they don’t have the pressure.
Approximately 100 people move to Austin everyday. The city has doubled its population in the last decade, most young professionals drawn to the tech industry or creating a startup. We also have UT and a never ending stream of young co-eds moving here each fall. The dating pool is big and the guys want to go swimming. Let’s be real...these guys don’t have to grow up. Austin is a hub for technology, engineering and culture. Not to mention really, really good-looking people who like to bike, run, eat tacos and do yoga.
Whenever I’m looking at profiles online, I see a lot of this:
I chatted with this guy for a bit and he asked me out. Then he admitted he wasn’t looking for something serious. I do appreciate this honesty and him telling me what he is not looking for. There are a lot of guys who don’t do this and just lead you on so they can get what they want.
While they are upfront about what they are not looking for, they always skirt around what they are looking for. They will almost never come right out and say it. Instead they say they are just looking to “have fun.”
Hey guys, we cracked your code! When you say that you’re interested in having fun, we know you don’t mean putt-putt and ice cream.
“Having fun” = sex without a serious relationship
Way back in the day, you needed to be in a relationship to have sex. Now, with the internet and numerous dating apps, you can have sex without a relationship.
Guys can drag their feet and take their time because they aren’t in a rush. Their biological clock isn’t ticking. Hell, Hugh Hefner can still have children and he’s 211 years old. It’s incredibly frustrating.
A 50 year-old man who has never married will not be looked down upon and society won’t bat an eye at his status. But a woman? Her single status is sad and pathetic or there is “something wrong with her.”
I’ll admit I spent a great deal of my 20s enjoying myself. I had the benefits of a college degree, a paycheck and plenty of single friends for post-college antics. I spent most of my teenage years in a relationship and I always said I was in no rush to settle down. Even in the Aziz Ansari “Modern Romance” book, he interviewed elderly women who got married young. They were encouraging their granddaughters to “have fun” and “live it up.” Young women of today have more options and opportunities than our elders.
But, there is a veeeeery-fine-minuscule-line between:
20s “enjoy yourself/the world is your oyster”
vs.
30 “oh god! you are going to die alone!”
Please click on the link above and check out this video on YouTube. It’s hysterical and so accurately describes the predicament women face of having fun, playing the field and enjoying your 20s while realizing you can’t do this forever. It’s a reality men won’t ever have to deal with.
So while I did it too and enjoyed my time, the difference is that I never pushed anything good away. If a guy with potential, that I had a good connection with, came along, I would have hung up my high heels and called it a day. The problem is that when I did meet someone with potential, they always bailed with things got too serious.
Women find something good? They want to fight.
Guys find something good? They want to flee.
I will never understand this mentality.
But now, I am at a point in my life where I would like to be in a relationship. I understand that it doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time so I want to be friends first and take things slow. I’ve been burned in the past but I haven’t let that stop me or scare me. It just sucks that I live in Never-Never Land.
Austin guys be like weeeee:
Until next time…

1. Name: My full name that my family calls me is Hanna Jo, friends call me Hanna or Jo, I respond to both. Take your pick, the world is your oyster.
2. Age: 20
3. Location: Denver, Colorado
4. Craft: I’m a new bby witchling so I am still learning. I really enjoy green witchery, kitchen witchery, and hedgecraft, however I have a very strong gravitation towards spirit work (??? is that what it’s called? can’t find another name for it) even though that is not something I often practice cause spoopy.
5. Likes/Dislikes: like many people that have submitted to this page I love animals! They’re my closest friends and I communicate very well with them. I love learning languages, I’m currently minoring in Spanish, however I just started taking it so I’m not very advanced just yet. I love hiking/camping/being outside and I never keep my shoes on (unless i’m hiking, cause ow) I work out regularly and I do yoga/meditate damn near every day. I don’t like negativity, complaining, laziness, and guys who hit on me (sorry, you’ve been warned.)
6. Contact method: this seems to contradict a lot of the posts I’ve seen on here but I would prefer to keep all communication electronic, so via tumblr, my tumblr is @bitchinwitchinn, skype, facebook (IF we become close) ect. I’m a full time nursing student so I would hate to start communicating by letters because it would take me so long to get back to you and I’d feel bad.
low key hate that picture but it is what it is, I got plenty more on my tumblr
fun facts: man, I’m lame af idk. I play World of Warcraft which always tends to surprise people but those people usually don’t play wow so what do they know. I’m very sensitive to people’s/places auras and can read them fairly well. I love to cook and I’m bomb af. Vegetarian for a year, working on becoming vegan! That’s all of got, folks.
what am I looking for: someone to chit chat with about witchcraft bc I am completely solitary in a christian family, my best friend is christian, and my boyfriend is atheist. I have no one to geek out about this with. I am also very eager to learn. I am not interested in any sort of romantic/flirty/whatever conversations, everything has to be 100% platonic or I’m ghosting your ass. We all know the amount of pervs on here so sorry to sound so stuck up but I ain’t playing that game. I will not entertain you, I will not be friendly, and you will get blocked immediately so lets not waste either of our time.
Age: sorry kiddos, I’d really prefer someone around my age and up, however, I would never ignore the message of a youngin but I ain’t hip with the kids no more so, again, you’ve been warned.
Gender: Girls, girls, girls. Love me some girls. I actually really don’t care as long as we can keep appropriate conversation. Gays, lesbians, trans, whatever you are, come to mama. I do not discriminate unless you a fuckboy. If you are, better stay the fuck away from me.
Location: idc if you live on mars as long as you’ve got internet access and a webcam, I’m not ending up on catfish.
