no feelings - mason x f!detective (twc)

author’s note: my original intention was to do a post-bakery, heartbreak moment for mason and I started this before the demo updated, but needed to change it since and hopefully it still works. I have no idea if I’ll do a part 2, my original plans don’t spark joy atm, and I was tired of seeing this in my WIPs xD. very minor book 3 spoilers (allusions but no specific mentions). enjoy! *thank you @silma-words for giving this a read-through all those months ago when i was stuck and to @narrativefoiltrope for the parentheses suggestion!

copyright: all characters, except my oc detective, are owned by mishka jenkins @seraphinitegames. series/pairing: the wayhaven chronicles – mason x f!detective (ria knight) rating/warnings: 16+; swearing, angst word count: 1.7k summary: ria wants to end things with mason before she catches feelings for someone who won’t return them. mason isn’t sure what he wants but knows he doesn’t want to give up what they have.

no feelings

mason just stared at the door to ria’s office, the shades obscuring the sight of her but he could still hear the sound of her heartbeat. solid and steady, like her.

he didn’t know why he said what he did. he just knew that she was hurt, even though she pretended not to be. and even though he wanted to talk to her, he didn’t know what he wanted to say.

it didn’t matter though, seeing as how she didn’t seem like she wanted to talk to him anytime soon.

but he couldn’t bring himself to walk away.

he knocked, hesitantly. once. twice.

“come in,” a voice called out, loud to his senses, vibrating ever so slightly.

he opened the door and paused in the doorway, eyes searching hers for permission.

her head rose from where it had been resting on her arms, fists clenching once she noticed him. she lowered her hands to her lap, but mason had no doubt that her knuckles were white.

“what do you want?” she asked, her features stitching together a mask of indifference.

but he could see the truth in her light blue eyes. it was his special skill after all, being able to read people and get the truth from them.

a skill he tried to avoid using with ria as much as possible for some reason.

when did that happen?

even now, as he was holding her gaze, he knew he wasn’t trying to read her. but he could still sense that something was off. and he wanted, no needed, to figure out what it was.

the silence between them grew as ria’s gaze shifted. she looked expectantly at him. “well? if you don’t have anything new to report on the case, you should leave. i have a lot of work to do.”

he shook his head, a force of habit. he really didn’t know what to say.

she glanced away, eyes flitting across the posters and papers pinned to the wall next to her desk, but mason could see the gears turning in her mind. when she turned back to look at him, the pain from before was replaced by a newfound intensity that slammed into him and sent a prickly, but still pleasant, tingle across his chest and down his arms.

a knowing smirk tugged at the corner of her lips as her eyes appraised him, and not unlike the first time they flirted, the motion sent something warm and soothing down south. as her eyes met his again, the warmth turned into a simmering heat and he took a step forward, her darkened irises drawing him in.

he raised an eyebrow at her. while he was no stranger to the constant attraction between them, which pushed and pulled like the tides but always met each other at dusk and dawn, it didn’t seem like the time.

for once, he wanted to talk.

“look, about what i said before,” he started, folding his arms across his chest.

ria made her way around her desk until she was standing in front of him. “you were right. you made it clear that you were only interested in fun, and i agreed,” she shrugged, tapping her fingers lightly on his chest.

his brow furrowed. while he did say something to that affect, it wasn’t what he wanted.

“that’s all this is and all it’s going to be, so i’ll see you later at my apartment?” ria asked pointedly, her lip curling into a smirk.

a frustrated rumble crouched low in the back of his throat. “i never said that this is all it’s going to be,” he snapped, flinching at the volume of his own voice.

ria didn’t move a muscle. her light blue eyes had darkened to a cloudy grey, only a few shades lighter than his own.

“you didn’t have to, sunshine. i’m saying it. so am i seeing you later or not?” she asked, the glare on her face reminding him of the daggers she had hidden under her jacket sleeves.

an uncomfortable itch started in his belly and he subconsciously scratched at the fabric of his shirt, blunt nails digging in harder before he realized the itch was under his skin.

and it was spreading. traveling up toward his chest and out before making its way down his arms. leaving behind a tiny, circular weight in his stomach that he didn’t care for.

he could recognize it for what it was, a form of conflict. swirling counter-clockwise as a hurricane does when it approaches shore. but he didn’t understand why it was there.

what he did understand is that if she wanted to see him, he wanted to see her.

he gave her a slow nod. “i’ll see you later,” he said, hesitating for a brief second with his hand on the doorknob.

he glanced back at her and said softly, “sweetheart.”

~ against her better judgment, ria met mason’s gaze before he left, the murmured pet name on his lips seeming to glide through the air and hit her in the chest. her body slumped back against the desk as he left, energy draining out of her and leaving behind the tempestuous grey look now seared in her mind. his words left an uncomfortable lump in her throat, and she hoped no one else came into her office.

she looked at the clock, a feeble attempt to fast-forward to the end of the day, only for her shoulders to sag at the realization that she basically still had eight hours to go. despite the tension in their earlier conversation and the uncomfortable moments they’ve had since breakfast, ria wasn’t mad at mason.

even though she had stormed out while trying to blink back tears and then he stormed away from her after finding out about bobby, she didn’t blame him.

no, the only person she was fucking pissed off at was herself.

it wasn’t supposed to get this far.

she wasn’t good with feelings. it was always easier to push away any uncomfortable thoughts or emotions by keeping her body physically distracted, preferably with either a partner in the gym or a partner in her bed.

learning how to box and working her way through all the various martial art forms gave her focus after quitting ballet.

(though it did little to quell the feelings of inadequacy caused by things completely out of her control.)

teaching herself how to use knives and rook’s family dagger was a welcome distraction after she was forced to abandon her aspirations to join the army.

(though digging through rook’s old stuff in the attic in desperate protest – to find anything that would tell her he would’ve supported her – only drowned her in the loss.)

flirting and sleeping with every person who showed interest in her and seemed even an inch better than bobby fucking marks.

(though every little fling, whether a one-night stand or a string of awkward first dates, only added supporting evidence to the story she told herself that no one would stick around for her.)

and it was supposed to be the same with mason.

no strings. no baggage. no goddamn feelings.

ria gripped the edge of her desk with her hands until her knuckles turned white. she already broke her first rule of dating: don’t catch feelings.

you can’t get hurt if there aren’t feelings involved, she reminded herself of the mantra that got her out of several attempts at relationships after breaking up with bobby.

but she could still implement her second rule.

~ instead of heading back to the warehouse right away, mason wandered toward the trees bordering the station that offered a shady respite from the scorching sun against his sensitive skin.

the heat was only going to get worse, but he couldn’t bring himself to leave just yet. even in the dark shade of the trees around him, the sun burned against his skin almost as if it were bare. he winced, not even wanting to think about how much worse it might feel if he wasn’t at least wearing a long-sleeved shirt.

they still needed to work together.

he pushed the seemingly random thought out of his mind as quickly as it had appeared, his body reacting viscerally in disagreement to the sentiment.

this wasn’t about maintaining a working relationship with ria.

this was bigger than that.

at least, he assumed, though he wasn’t exactly sure why.

he lit a cigarette, trying to distract from how his shirt is quickly becoming an incubator for the heat. smoke curled upward as he leaned his head back against the trunk of a tree.

he was always in it for the fun. it made traveling around and the downtime between missions more bearable.

he didn’t really care for hobbies and interests the way nate and felix did. and he could only take a beating from adam every so often.

having fun, especially with humans – who were so easy to rile up and even easier to read – made the endless time pass in a way that felt normal. for him anyway.

learning all the different ways he could elicit sounds from them. figuring out how quickly he could make them peak. knowing exactly what to do to leave them wanting more.

he took a long drag of the cigarette, closing his eyes and wishing the burn in his lungs would linger a little longer. it numbed the burn on the outside of his body.

but no feelings. that always took the fun out of things.

that was the rule.

and ria was fun, there was no denying that. maybe even the most fun he’s had in a very long time.

she knew his rule. hell, it was her rule too.

it was the perfect situation for him.

maybe he didn’t want to lose out on such an ideal situation. or mess up the team dynamic.

he dumped the cigarette butt onto the floor and put out the embers with his shoe.

whatever it was, he knew he wasn’t ready for things with her to end.

[shittylongcatposts]

Can I request Jumin trying to catch the attention of an MC who has nothing in common with him but has things in common with the other members, thank you!

Hey, nonnie, first of all, I’m so sorry it took me so long, work started again last week and it’s just exhausting atm. I really hope you’ll enjoy this one, I ididn’t really know how to start at first and  din’t know if it really hits the topic you requested, but I tried!!n I just realized Jumin doesn’t really catch Mcs attention but he does try it i guess. 

Nothing in common

You hadn’t been in the RFA for a very long time now

After the first party you tried spending a lot of time with your new friends, trying to get to know them better and also to bond a little more with them. The only person who didn’t really have time was Jumin.

:(

Well Jaehee didn’t have much time either but on some days you visited her during her lunch breaks

The both of you sitting at her desk, a tasty salad in front of you to munch down, and you giggled and gossiped about all kinds of things. 

Sometimes the dark haired man came out of the elevator and strided through the hallway, he looked cold and distant, while Jumin quickly disappeared into his office. 

you sighed, he did not even say hello to them.

Were you invisible to him?

What you didn’t see was Jumins soft smile whenever he waved you a small “hello”, he always did it, even when he was talking to an important business partner, wishing he could talk to you for just a little bit, but the duty of being a CEO called, work never ended for him :(

Seeing you playing LOLOL with Yoosung and Seven, going shopping with Jaehee and spending a diy spa day with Zen every now and then, but never really spending time with him, Jumin felt like you were avoiding him. 

What did he do wrong? Why weren’t you spending time with him?

Whenever he saw you in the messenger you were either about to log out or you were joking around with Seven and Yoosung, mocking Jumin, in a friendly way.

More and more it seemed to Jumin that you didn’t want to spend time with him. He couldn’t even tell if the both of you had something in common or not

What did you like? 

The others seemed to know you so well, but Jumin could never ask them without risking to tell them that he liked you. 

Another afternoon he checked the messenger to see that you were on a shopping tour with Jaehee again, asking for an outfit review. Both things looked great on you. 

But you just couldn’t decide for one.

 Jumin answered honestly, he even blushed a little bit, your cute smile on the pictures made his heart skip a beat. 

The choice you made went against his - of course, it always was like this, when he said outfit no. 1, you said no. 2. agreeing with zen again -hmph 

 You were so stubborn at times….

but it also made you… irresistible. 

That night you received a call from Jumin. 

he was drunk - no wait tipsy…

Now this was your chance to finally get to talk with him, without anyone noticing how nervous he made you. Your hand pressed the green button, your hands were shaking, hoping that you wouldn’t say something wrong you answered. 

“It’s me, Jumin, excuse me to be so cliche… but how was your day?”

“Quite good actually, I went shopping with Jaehee today, well you already know that, and we met Zen too.”

“Ahh, I’m glad you had fun today.” the young man fell into silence, trying to find his words again, but there was just nothing he could tell you. 

except that there were so many things he wanted to tell you, about his day, the meeting he had, the food he wished he could share with you the next time. 

but he couldn’t decide on a topic… Why was it so hard to talk to you? He could talk with any other person just perfectly fine. 

“Well, Jumin, how was your day?” You said, hesitantly trying to break the horrible silence. 

“Good, full of work as always, but I managed to lay my hands on a very special book today.”

“Really? What’s it about?”

You could hear him shily clearing his throat before he answered. “Ahem, It’s about witchcraft, and rituals”

“You got a thing for magic? I’d never expect that from a man like you.” 

“What does that mean? A man like me…? What kind of a man am I from your perspective then, MC?” his question sounded harsh, hopefully he didn’t take it personally. But something told you he did. 

“Uhm… I don’t know, but...  uh…”

“See, you don’t know me, Mc” he sighed at the other end of the line, letting out an exhausted scoff. “That’s the problem, right?”

the tone in his voice made you uncomfortable. With shaking you wrapped your arms around the pillow in front of you. That hurt, your heart sunk in, not in a good way though.

It felt heavy, nearly breaking under these sharp words.

With a shaking voice you tried to speak up for yourself 

“You’re right, but how should I get to know you, when you are working all the time? You are so cold and distant, when I visited Jaehee in the office, you could have said hello and enjoyed a cup of coffee with us. You know, maybe Zen was right about you - You really are cold, even to your friends. After all this time I’m still clueless when it comes to you. I don’t even know what you like or dislike. I just don’t think I have anything in common with you.”

Jumin sucked in the air through his teeth, making him nearly sound a hissing cat. But as soon as he started to talk his voice sounded disappointed

 “I said hello. You just didn’t hear it. You’ll have to excuse me for being unfriendly, I need.. time to warm up with the people around me. Can I make it up to you in any way? Only if you want to of course.”

The chuckle you heard caused a sting in your heart, you never heard that before, it was almost cute., making it hard to stay angry.  

This man knew exactly how to play his cards, you forgave him his harsh words instantly.

“Of course, I’d really like to get to know you better! Why don’t we start right now? You ask me something and then it’s my turn - but let me pour in a glass of wine first, it’s fairer when we both are tipsy”

“How do you know I’m tipsy?”

“You never called me this late before, so i just figured.” Even though he couldn’t see your shrug, you hoped he could feel it. 

The both of you talked for hours that night, finding out that there were quite a few things you both liked. Small things like enjoying a glass of wine, cuddling with a cat, listening to music, and supernatural stuff. 

The night went on and you started to hope it would never end. 

Your wine bottle did though, and you were getting drunk. 

As soon as the call ended you fell asleep, snoring loudly. 

You woke up the next day to a text message from Jumin

“Thank you for last evening. I'm looking forward to seeing you tonight! I’ll be there at 7pm and make sure to bring some popcorn too.”

Tonight?! Oh right, you invited him over for a supernatural night. 

You quickly rose to your feet, feeling giddy with excitement. Finally you were able to spend time with Jumin alone.

The smile on your lips grew wider when you puzzled the rest of the call together. 

Seeing Jumin being kind and caring, but also curious and funny made you curious as well. Curious for the man behind all the walls he built up throughout the years.

How many sides were there to discover? How would he treat you in the future?

Uh-oh Rosie

REQUEST:  Reading the imagine of Adam as a teenager made me think what Rosie would be like as a teenager , would she be good or bad ,like if got caught in her room with a boy how tommy and y/n react . Can also imagine her being a complete daddy’s girl x

Here’s something short and hopefully sweet. My allergies have been a mess this week making me feel like shit but writing makes me feel much better :)) 

I feel like I might do shorter fics like blurbs because I don’t really have the energy to bang-out longer ones atm and starting next week I’ll be spending the month focusing on my uni deadlines which are due in May so hopefully, I’ll be able to post shorter things. So request your blurb request thingys :)

Also thank you guys for 600 followers <3, you guys are the absolute best

WORD COUNT: 534

The teen boy ran out of Rosie’s room as soon as he saw Tommy step into the room, picking up his blazer and bag and running out of the girls room without even saying goodbye to her, running past Rose’s mother and brother on the stairs and straight out of the house. 

Tommy was expressionless as he turned to his daughter, who was trying her hardest not to look at him, knowing that she was most likely in trouble.

“Was that boy just caught in Rosie’s room?” Adam had run up the stairs and to Rose’s room as soon as the boy ran past him, a grin on his face.

“Piss off!” Rose shouted.

“Hey! Language!” (Y/N) had joined them in the bedroom and managed to catch what Rose said.

“Sorry mum” Rose apologised.

“Right” Tommy nodded, “Who was that boy, Rose?”

Rose didn’t speak, she kept her mouth shut and her eyes to her hands which were resting on her lap.

“Rose, I’m talking to you.”

“He’s just some boy from school, no-one important,” Rose explained

“He was obviously important enough to sneak him up to your room so that you could kiss him” Adam chimed in, absolutely loving what was happening.

Before Rose could snap back, her father beat her to it,

“Adam, piss off!” 

“Tommy!” (Y/N) scolded.

“Alright, alright” Adam left the room but not before he stuck his tongue out at his sister.

“Rosie…” (Y/N) sat next to her daughter on the bed, “We’re not going to stop you from dating boys but we just want you to be careful. We don’t want you to get pregnant whilst you’re still young.”

“But I’m smart enough not to do that.”

“We know that but boys your age are disgusting little gremlins and I don’t want them anywhere near you.” Tommy spoke up.

(Y/N) rolled her eyes at his words but she couldn’t help but smile at them,

“We just want the best for you Rosie” (Y/N) pressed a kiss to her daughter's head.

Rose nodded, “I understand you.”

“Good girl.” Tommy smiled at his daughter before he left her room.

“He’s scared y’know” (Y/N) said after he left.

“Scared of what?” Rose curiously looked at her mum.

“You’re growing up too quickly, he doesn’t like it. It feels like yesterday you were still a baby and now you’re all grown up and kissing boys.”

“He wasn’t like this with Adam” Rose grumbled.

“That’s because he knows how to deal with it, he’s experienced it himself and dealt with John and Finn.” (Y/N) explains “But he’s clueless when it comes to teenage girls, you should have seen him with your aunt Ada.

Rose laughed at the thought of her dad dealing with a teenage version of her aunt Ada, knowing that a fully grown Ada already gives him enough grief.

“While he’s quite clueless, your dad is trying his hardest. Okay?”

“Okay mama” 

“Good girl” (Y/N) kissed Rose on the head before she left her by herself. 

Rose’s talk with her mother made her feel much better, her dad was just being a dad and wanted the best for her and she appreciated it.

[robin-oliver]

you’re somebody else | matt + robin (flashback)

“Come on, Ro. It’s the best high you’ll ever have, the rush is fucking amazing.”

Robin shrugged, taking the three pills and washing them down with her drink. She hadn’t even really paid attention to what type of pills they were, just the promise of forgetting. She needed to escape, to stop thinking for a while. It was payback to her Mum, who never thought Robin could do things like this and still get out of Spenningdale. It was payback to her Dad, for leaving and taking a piece of her with him whether he wanted it or not, but perhaps most importantly to her at this moment, it was payback to Jack for acting like a child and leaving her at this party - the last party they’d have before leaving for uni. Robin was angry, but mostly she was sad, and hopefully soon, she wouldn’t feel anything.

Robin quickly finished her drink and smiled up at Matt with her eyebrows raised. “Happy now?” He smirked. “Very. And soon you will be too. Good riddance Jacky, the party’s better off without your shit attitude and even shittier music.” He let out a loud laugh and Robin shook her head, already looking around for another drink to help her push any thoughts of Jack out of her mind - his stupid argument with Matt over music, his insistence in leaving the party, her begging him to stay, the angry words they exchanged, staring after him as he retreated through the crowd. The nagging feeling of abandonment that was gnawing at her. “I don’t want to talk about Jack anymore, let’s just have fun, Matty.” Matt laughed again and threw an arm around Robin, holding up his drink.

“Yeah, fuck Jack.”

Robin had been fucked up many, many times before this, but never like she was now. She staggered away from the crowd where she’d been dancing with Matt, grabbing at the wall for support as a wave of dizziness washed over her. She barely registered the feeling of an arm around her waist to steady her, and for a moment she even thought it might be Jack coming back to surprise her; however, the thought quickly vanished as she heard Matt’s voice in her ear. “Doth my eyes deceive me? Or is Robin Oliver, who can always handle her alcohol, absolutely shitfaced?” Robin rolled her eyes, weakly pushing Matt. “Fuck off…” She protested, distantly noticing how slurred her words were. Jesus. She thought about the pills and laughed. “You were right, Matty. The pills… The music... Everything is perfect.” She let out another laugh and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Let’s keep dancing, we’re having so much fun… Let’s not stop now.” Matt threw his head back and let out a boisterous laugh. “You can barely stand up straight, Ro. Come on, you need to sit down for a bit.”

Before Robin could object, she could feel Matt guiding her towards the stairs and presumably up to his room. She did mutter a matter-of-fact, “I could have just sat on the sofa,” which made Matt laugh again. “With all those annoying fuckers in there? Nah, only the best for you Robbie.” She groaned and put a clumsy hand to his lips. “Shh don’t call me that... You’re right though.” She laughed and her hand dropped back to her side. Everything felt choppy, like moments were being spliced together with seconds or minutes at a time missing completely. Maybe she should just be going home, or to Jack’s. No. She should be with Jack. She’d pushed any thoughts of him out of the way the entire night, but now he was the only thing floating through her head. She was fully leaning into Matt at this point, shaking her head, trying to release Jack from her mind. She spoke about him instead as Matt helped her into a sitting position on his bed, it didn’t help. “Can you believe Jack was such an asshole tonight? To just leave like that. He can be such a dick sometimes… I really love him though.” Robin laughed - those words had never left her mouth before, even in moments when she could have said them to Jack, they’d always remained locked away in the safety of her thoughts.

She shook her head, resting it against Matt’s arm as they walked up the stairs. “I really fucking love him, Matt. Is that how you feel about Evie? Where she can be so frustrating but she’s still the person you want to be with over anything? ” Robin looked up at Matt with a smile, taking her free hand to tap her finger on his nose as she laughed. He suddenly appeared so uncharacteristically serious and it made Robin laugh harder. “I love you too, Matty. You and Leo… My boys. You’re never a dick, Matt… You know? You wouldn’t leave me. You’re always there - everyone’s golden boy. Jack is different though… He’s my favorite person... I don’t know, maybe I should call him? Make sure he got home safely.” Robin swayed back and forth a bit as Matt helped her into a sitting position on the edge of his bed. “I don’t think that’s a good idea, Robin. Let’s not let Jack ruin the night. He’s probably already asleep, anyway.” Robin thought about this for a moment and nodded. “Yeah…” The mere motion of the nod threw her off balance, yet she was still attempting to stand up from the bed and pull him up with her. “We should go back down and dance, Matty.” Matt let out a tight laugh but didn’t move, even at Robin’s attempts to pull him up. “We just got up here? Do you really think you’re going to be able to dance when you can barely stand up? Come on, Ro.” Robin laughed and pushed him. “Yeah, you’re right. Maybe I should just go home... My Mum will be pissed.” Matt let out another laugh as he wrapped his arm around her to steady her and keep her from standing up. “Since when have you given a single fuck what your Mum thought? You’re absolutely fucked, just stay here. Jacky doesn’t have to know.”

Jack. His name was the only part of the sentence her cloudy mind settled on and she let out a laugh, nodding again, then languidly rested her head against his shoulder. She barely registered the implication of the rest of Matt’s words, or his hand that was now resting on her thigh, gently pushing up the hem of her skirt. Robin laughed again, this time turning her head away and weakly pushing at his hand. “Matty… What’re you -” She started, interrupted by Matt’s own laugh. “Chill, it’s just meant to be some fun. Jack’ll never know. Haven’t you always wondered what it’d be like? I was your favorite first, right?” She shook her head adamantly, which only made her dizzier, as Jack appeared once again at the forefront of her mind. “What? No... I don’t want that.” Robin pushed at Matt’s hand again, and this time it moved swiftly from her leg, his face laced with an underlying emotion Robin’s drunken mind couldn’t settle on. Frustration? Maybe. Then Matt’s face softened, the faintest look of amusement in his eyes. Amusement and a touch of irritation. “Relax, you didn’t think I was actually going to do anything, did you, Ro? Jesus, it was just a joke, you’re more wasted than I thought.” He laughed again and Robin hesitated for a moment, confused yet relieved, and much too tired to do anything other than just go along with what Matt was saying. She let out a small laugh and nodded. “Yeah - yeah, totally…”

She fell back onto Matt’s bed then, letting out a laugh as the ridiculous idea of him trying anything with her for anything other than a joke set in. Of course it was a joke, Matt was like the brother Robin never had, he’d never do anything to mess that up. She felt herself sink into the softness of his mattress - a welcoming feeling to her inebriated mind and body. Robin stared up at the ceiling as the room spun around her, struggling to keep her eyes open as she felt Matt pushing hair out of her face. She laughed again, waving a hand in front of her face before it dropped onto the bed beside her.. “These pills are fucking crazy, I feel like I’m floating… Everything is spinning.” She rubbed at her face with her hand and shook her head lazily. “I think… Maybe I just need to rest for a minute before we go back downstairs, Matty.” She mumbled, closing her eyes as the interaction they’d just had quickly faded from her memory. Matt was talking again, but Robin wasn’t really hearing what he was saying. She kept fading in and out of consciousness, at one point hearing a voice saying her name, then feeling a tug at her clothes, and then once more with a heavy pressure pinning her down.

The next time she came to, everything was quiet and her body felt damp with sweat.

--

Robin woke up the next morning to the sound of a phone vibrating, the sensation of sheets sticking to her skin, and her head pounding so hard she nearly vomited. She laid still for a moment with her eyes closed, trying to control the nausea rising in her, before mustering the strength to sit up and look for her phone. It was only then that Robin realized she wasn’t in her room, or Jack’s - the only two places she ever ended up after a night out. She was in Matt’s room, in his bed in only her bra and underwear, her clothes discarded in a pile on the floor, with Matt asleep next to her, and absolutely no recollection of what happened the night before. That realization was enough to make her stomach lurch. Robin sat wrapped in Matt’s sheets for a second, trying to piece together any memory from the night before, when she heard the phone vibrating again. She leaned over the side of the bed for her clothes, finding her phone beneath them with a new message from Jack, and four before that.

00:43 hey u djehrbshag

missed call

01:23 ri knw ur pissed atme but tiqsll come dto mine tonight? i’ll make it up txo you ;)

01:51 i didn’t want to leave you, matt’s such a dickm. call me when yowu leave othe party

missed call

03:05 are you alive??? ie’m sorry rockin <3333

09:53 please just text me when you’re up x

So they’d had an argument and Jack left? Jack and Matt had gotten into it too? None of it explained how she’d ended up in Matt’s bed basically half naked. Shit. 

Once Robin had her clothes on she nudged Matt awake, determined to get answers. He grumbled for a moment and turned over to look up at her. Before he had a chance to talk, she looked down at him. “What the fuck happened last night, Matt? Why did I sleep here? And my clothes? What the fuck?”

Matt looked up at Robin with an amused smile. “You don’t remember, Ro? You were plastered out of your mind last night.” He laughed and shook his head. “Jack was being a pussy and left the party, so we had a good time - you tried some pills and needed to rest so I brought you up here then went back down to the party. When I came back later you were passed out in bed with your clothes on the ground.” Matt shrugged with a small laugh. “I was pretty fucked too. Not a big deal, we had a great time.” Robin nodded slowly, her cheeks flushing at how stupid she had to have been to strip down to just her bra and underwear in her best friend’s bedroom. At least it was just Matt and not some creep. Still, there was a nagging feeling in the pit of her stomach. Had she ever done that before? A large part of her knew not, but she filed that away and chose to trust him. Why wouldn’t she? “Right, yeah… Of course.” He smirked and motioned to her phone. “What? Is Jacky feeling left out about missing it? You can tell him we had a great time without him.” She let out a small laugh and rolled her eyes, pushing away any of the weird feelings she was having and dismissing them as just embarrassment and a really shitty hangover. “Yeah, whatever.” Robin ruffled Matt’s hair. “Well I’m off then, time to face the wicked witch and explain my prolonged absence last night.” She walked towards the bedroom door but turned around with a smile. “Thanks for looking out for me last night, Matty.” He smiled and nodded. “Always, Robbie.”

Robin pulled out her phone to text Jack as she closed the front door behind her.

Sorry, alive and hungover. Let’s just forget about last night. Can I come round later? Have to fight off mum now x

Soma Voice Lines

Borrowed from @muffinrecord

Here’s my take so I can practice writing his voice. In retrospect, they come off as rather sad since he doesn’t know ugly truth ;o;

Intro Self Introduction 1: Ah, Hello! My name's Soma, and I’m from Tomoyoko City. I don't remember my last name, but I'm sure it'll come back sooner or later, haha. Hopefully I can remember everything else about myself too... actually, can I ask you something? Have you ever heard of a magical girl called the Sibyl? Self Introduction 2: I'm just a magical boy from Tomoyoko, probably the only one at the moment. But just because I'm a boy, doesn't mean I can't fight like everyone else!

Personal Story Story Chapter End 1 It’s hard dealing with other magical girls. I feel like I shouldn’t even be here talking to them. Story Chapter End 2 Looks like it’s back to square one. *Sigh* How frustrating... Story Chapter End 3 I’m not gonna rest until I find out the truth about the Sibyl. I just can’t go on like this.

Story Select 1 I can fight too! Just give me a chance! Story Select 2 The Sibyl of Tomoyoko... Just who is she...? Story Select 3 H-hey, hold on a second Misha! I'm not sure if I'm ready for this lesson yet! Story Select 4 Stop poking me Kiki, I'm not that cute! Hey, that tickles! *Laughs* Cut it out! Story Select 5 Why was I chosen? What makes me so special? Story Select 6 If I can just remember something, anything...

Stats Strengthening Complete: Huh. I think I’m getting better at this. Let’s see what I can do now. Strengthening Max: Wow, I never thought I get this far. Maybe I can actually do this!

Episode Level Up: I’m finally getting somewhere with this investigation. Magia Level Up: I feel a little... lighter. Like I can do anything. I think Misha’s training is finally paying off.

Magical Release 1: It’s difficult to learn about magic and control it, but everyday pushes me to work harder to recover my memories and find her. Magical Release 2: Witches are born from curses, yet I can create them from my magic. Well, distorted ones anyway. But I just don’t understand. Why would I have this power? Is it because of her...?  Magical Release 3: I think my reason for wanting to find the Sibyl goes beyond recovering my memories. We both must’ve had a reason for taking up this role. I want to know what she sees in me personally. If I know that, then I think I can keep fighting.

Awaken 1: I know some parts of Tomoyoko like the back of my hand, but everything else is a complete blank. There’s gotta be a reason for that. Awaken 2: Is it because I don’t want to remember? Is that it? Or am I protecting myself from someone, or something? Perhaps there’s a lot more going on around here than I initially thought... Awaken 3: I’d like the chance to become normal again, but I’ve gained so much from this experience. It wouldn’t be right for me to give it all up and go back. Do I really want to be a magical boy? Or should I be a normal person?

Home Screen Login (First login): Hey, how's it going? Ready to start investigating? We're slowly making progress, but I'm sure we'll find a lead on the Sibyl this time. Login (Morning): Yawwwwn... Mornin'. Looks like you slept well. Me, I just feel super groggy. Give me a quick drink and I'll start perking up here again soon. Login (Noon): Huh? Noon already? I thought we had more time... Oh well. Where should we have lunch at? It's your call. We'll join up with Misha and the others there once you've decided. Let’s discuss our findings there too. Login (Evening): Everything always seems to get quiet around this time. Not that I mind, I like that kind of atmosphere. Quiet enough to relax and think... maybe I'll just close my eyes for a minute... Zzz... Login (Night): Hmmm, nothing huh? Well there’s always tomorrow. Maybe we’ll find the Sibyl then after we get some rest. Login (Other): Sometimes I wonder if it's fate that I became a magical boy. What was my life like before? Would things turn out differently if the Sibyl wished for something else? I can't help but think about that sometimes. Login (AP full): You ready? We need to stick together and cover each other’s backs. A Witch or Familiar could try to sneak up on one of us. Misha taught me that one. Login (BP full): It feels wrong for me to hit girls, but Misha says I have to prepare to fight and defend myself from anything, especially other magical girls. I still feel bad for hitting them, even if they’re just a bunch of copies. Sorry.

Tap 1: The Sibyl of Tomoyoko is said to be an incredibly powerful and wise magical girl. She sounds amazing, but I think what makes her interesting to me is how she became the Sibyl. That’s what I really want to know. Tap 2: It’s hard working with girls when you’re the only guy in the group. Misha’s nice, and while Kiki can get annoying sometimes, Chiaki’s just outright rude and doesn’t trust me. I wish she’d stop being so cold towards everyone. Tap 3: Kyubey says that I’m some kind of strange anomaly because he doesn’t make contracts with boys. I don’t like how he describes me like that... it almost sounds like something’s wrong with me. Tap 4: I don’t remember much about myself, but I can tell you about Tomoyoko at least. If you wanna swim or relax in the sun, you head south. If you want to immerse yourself in history and community, then you go north. As for central... it’s the place that bridges it together. Tap 5: They say a wish is a miracle, something that can help others and bring hope. But Kyubey can’t grant mine, and I have no idea what I’d ask for. The Sibyl thought of making me join her, but I still wonder if it’s something I really wanted. Tap 6: Some people don’t think too highly of Mr. Shinoda, my home room teacher. Rumors say he’s gotten in trouble with the law and is a real creep, but I don’t get that vibe from him. He seems like a pretty sensitive and kind-hearted guy to me. But I’m not sure why I think that though. Tap 7: I wish I could pick a different outfit. Having all of these belts on me makes me feel like I’m being restrained. Is there a way to change it into something else? Maybe I should ask Misha about it. All after, she’s the one with the most experience in magic. Tap 8: I think that, even if I wasn't a magical boy, I'd still want to help out magical girls in any way I can. I don't like seeing others suffer, and I don't like being unable to do anything. Tap 9: Can I ask you something? Kiki and some girls at school say I have a cute face, but when I look at myself in a mirror, I don’t really see it. Do you think I’m cute? ...Gah, what a weird thing to say. Never mind, forget I asked! *Blush*

Battle Start: Come on, let’s go! Battle Victory 1: I did it! I can fight! Battle Victory 2: I’m ok! A little scared, but I can keep going. Battle Victory 3: I won’t let anything hold me back. I’ll get up and continue walking forward.

Doppel: Stop... please, stop... I don’t wanna die... Dying: Help me... it hurts...

I think it could use a little more work, but it’s good enough atm. I’d make a Personal Memoria, but I don’t think I have a solid idea of it yet. I’d need to write his story to properly sort that out lol

I’m With You

For Day 7 of @josuyasuweek - ModernAU/Christmas/Anything You Want!

Summary: Josuke disappears during a rain storm and Okuyasu goes to look for him. When he finds his boyfriend, though, there’s definitely more bothering him than just the cold and the rain...

Notes: The title of this story is the name of the song that Josuke sings later, “I’m With You” by Avril Lavigne. It’s one of my favorite songs from my childhood and a good one for being sad and frustrated (kind of worried what that says about my childhood, but, eh, what can you do?). Also, this again takes place in the same Modern!AU as the other stories, but it’s before they met Giorno’s group or any of the other Jojo’s/Jo-bro’s, so it’s just the part 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 crew atm.

Jotaro-kun: “If anyone sees Josuke, text me or Jolyne.”

Okuyasu was one of the first people to read the group text, although he wasn’t the first to reply to it. The flood of messages made it hard to get a word in for a minute:

Jolyne-chan: “He went out yesterday and never came home.”

Ermes-chan: “Woah, seriously?! :O”

Anasui-kun: “Have you tried calling him?”

Jolyne-chan: “He left his phone here >_>;”

Kakyoin-kun: “Do you think he was attacked by a stand user?”

Jonathan-san: “Or one of Dio’s minions?!”

Joseph-san: “Doubt the pillarmen would go after him. Maybe he’s just avoiding you guys. Did you insult his hair? :P”

Caesar-san: “If it’s any consolation, I just punched Jojo for you -_-‘ Anyway, do you want us to look for him?”

Speedwagon-san: “Gimme five minutes and I’ll get Iggy started on it.”

Polnareff-san: “Ha! Good luck with that! XP”

Avdol-san: “I have one more client today, but I can cancel the session if you need me to help.”

Jotaro-kun: “Yare yare. Everyone calm down. This is normal for him. Sometimes he just disappears for a couple of days and then comes back. Just text us if you see him so we know he’s okay.”

Jolyne-chan: “He’s right, this is pretty normal for Josuke when something’s bugging him. We only brought it up because of the storm- we don’t want him getting sick :P”

Okuyasu stopped reading the messages for a few minutes after that, but he still felt the phone vibrate in his hand every time another text was sent.

Josuke ran away? That couldn’t be good..

He had a feeling something had been bothering him since their last fight against some of Dio’s stand-using minions. Josuke had gotten separated from the others for a while, but he’d been fine when they found him.

Well, physically fine, at least.

Okuyasu couldn’t put his finger on it, but, when Josuke didn’t think anyone was looking at him, he had this look in his eyes like he was asking himself a million depressing questions. It had only gotten worse over the days that followed, all culminating in the sudden lack of communication from his boyfriend yesterday afternoon. He’d written it off at the time as him being busy or something, and now he wished he hadn’t..

Me: “Don’t worry- I’ll find him.”

Okuyasu typed out the message and sent it before throwing on a pair of work boots and a ratty old jacket, barely remembering to grab his umbrella until he was half-way out the door. He switched his phone to silent as he left his apartment and stuck it in his pocket, still feeling the buzz of each message in the chat but not bothering to check them anymore.

After all, if anyone could find Josuke, it was him, right?

______________________________________________________________

He may have spoken too soon…

Okuyasu had spent the better part of two hours searching for Josuke, but hadn’t seen hide nor pomp of his boyfriend anywhere in the rain-drenched streets. The fact that the storm had gotten progressively worse certainly didn’t help things any, nor did the setting sun plunging the town into an even darker landscape.

Frustrated and annoyed by his lack of progress, Okuyasu was about to go check the park next when the faint strumming of a guitar caught his attention. “??” He followed the sound when he heard a familiar voice singing along to the melody. “Josuke?!” The symphony of sounds lead him to a covered walkway bridge where the music echoed off of the enclosed walls. Then, he saw him- sitting on the ground with his guitar in his lap and the guitar case set against the wall beside him. “Josuke..?” He approached the other teen, but apparently he’d caught him between songs as he’d already begun playing a new one by the time Okuyasu said his name.

“I’m standing on a bridge..” Josuke began while strumming out the notes on his guitar with his eyes closed. “I’m waiting in the dark..I thought that you’d be here by now..” He leaned his head back against the wall behind him, his soft voice enhanced by the area’s acoustics. “There’s nothing but the rain..no footsteps on the ground…I’m listening but there’s no sound…”

“……” Okuyasu frowned slightly as he listened to the sad song, deciding to close his umbrella, take a seat across from the other boy, and wait for him to finish- it just didn’t feel right to interrupt him like that..

“Isn’t anyone trying to find me? Won’t somebody come take me home?” Josuke opened his eyes again, but they went straight down to watch his hands as they skillfully played each note. “It’s a damn cold night..Trying to figure out this life..” His eyes slowly drifted up until they met Okuyasu's gaze, not looking surprised in the slightest to see him there. “Won’t you take me by the hand? Take me somewhere new…I don’t know who you are, but I..I’m with you~” The corner of his mouth lifted into a faint, barely there smile that just looked more sad and tired than anything in that moment. “I’m with you..”

“……” Okuyasu offered his boyfriend a small, hopefully more reassuring smile of his own. He even gave a silent wave, but he decided not to talk sine Josuke continued playing.

“I’m looking for a place…I’m searching for a face…Is anybody here? I know…” Josuke sighed, his smile slipping back into the unreadable expression he had when Okuyasu first walked in. “Cause nothing’s going right..and everything’s a mess..” His pitch faltered slightly on that last line, sounding like he’d bitten back a sob as his head tilted downward. “And no one likes to be alone…Isn’t anyone trying to find me? Won’t somebody come take me home..?”

As Josuke relapsed back into the chorus, Okuyasu took the chance to fully take in the other boy’s appearance: His hair still had its usual basic shape, but it was drooping considerably and had water dripping front the ends. There were bags visible under Josuke’s eyes, so he probably hadn’t slept last night. His clothes were all practically glued to him, so he must have just gotten here recently. Most disturbingly of all was the deep, painful sadness that was visible in the normally bright-eyed teen’s colorful eyes.

Okuyasu had never seen him this bad before..

“Oh! Why is everything so confusing?!” Josuke’s voice crescendoed with the intensity of the bridge, echoing off the walls so powerfully that it nearly drowned out the thunderstorm still raging outside of their shelter “Maybe I’m just out of my mi~ind!” The litany of “ye~ah”s that followed broke Okuyasu’s heart as they sounded more and more pained, some closer to sobs of anguish than actual notes, all reaching a peak when let Josuke belted out one loud final “YEEA~AA~AH!” before going quiet for a moment, the only sound being the now considerably softer playing of his guitar. “……It’s a damn cold night…Trying to figure out this life…” His voice had gone as quiet as his guitar for the moment. “Won’t you..take me by the hand? Take me somewhere new..” He finally looked back up at Okuyasu with a sad, broken smile and fresh tears in his eyes. “I don’t know who you are, but I…I’m with you~!” His voice crescendoed again, as did his playing, and he repeated the chorus a couple more times.

Okuyasu frowned with tears in his own eyes as he quietly got up and moved over to the other side of the bridge to kneel down beside his boyfriend. “Josuke..” He whispered as he slowly brought his arms up around the longer-haired boy’s shoulders on the end of the third repetition of the chorus.

The effect was instantaneous- Josuke let his guitar rest in his lap and all but melted into the tender embrace. He turned his upper body so that he could hide his face in Okuyasu’s shoulder, clinging tightly to him as his beautiful voice now let out a muffled chorus of sobs and wails that the other boy was just as willing to hear as he was his earlier song.

They stayed like that for a long time, Okuyasu letting Josuke get every pained noise out of his system until he calmed down.

After he’d finished, Josuke finally pulled away and wiped at his eyes using his sleeve, but that ultimately just made his face wetter. “Sorry, Oku-” His apology was stopped from going any further by the same arms that had been previously wrapped around him now lifting him up to his feet. “Okuyasu?”

Instead of receiving an answer right away, Okuyasu just took Josuke’s guitar from him and put it back in its case. After carefully closing it up, he next unzipped his jacket and put it around Josuke’s shoulders, not caring about it getting wet or about how cold it was now with the damp air clinging to his skin. Once his boyfriend had a warm coat on again, Okuyasu retrieved his umbrella, opened it back up, slung the guitar case’s strap over his shoulder, and wrapped his arm around Josuke’s shoulders with two simple words.

“Let’s go.”

Josuke blinked, looking confused by the statement. “Go..?”

Okuyasu side-eyed him with a confident grin. “Yep. You said it, remember? You’re with me.” He squeezed Josuke’s shoulder where his hand was resting on it, holding him close against his side. “So, let’s go.”

“!!” Josuke’s eyes widened slightly before his look shifted into a much more tender, grateful smile- one that was less heart-wrenching than the one he’d had while singing. “Yeah..” He relented with a barely audible chuckle that shook his shoulders. “I guess I DID say that..” He took the umbrella from Okuyasu and held it in the hand closest to his boyfriend in an attempt to shield them both from the storm. “Let’s go- I’m with you.”

_____________________________________________________________

Once they got back to his apartment, Okuyasu started a hot shower for Josuke and pulled out some spare pajamas for him to borrow. While he got warmed up, Okuyasu went to the kitchen to get some food prepared, figuring the other boy would be hungry since he hadn’t been home in a while. He didn’t have much to work with at the moment, but he did find some left over rice, vegetables, chicken, and even some yosenabe broth from various meals he’d had throughout the week, so he quickly threw them together with some beaten eggs to make a pot of zōsui.

By the time he had everything chopped and mixed and the pot had come to a boil, he heard the sound of Josuke’s bare feet on the tiled floor of his small kitchen. “That smells good..”

“Thanks.” Okuyasu grinned and turned to face his boyfriend. “It’s just some zōsui, but it should be pretty-” He froze for a minute when he saw Josuke standing in the doorway. He was wearing the clothes that Okuyasu loaned him, looking much better in the baggy white shirt and striped blue pajama pants than he had in his soaking wet clothes from earlier. What made Okuyasu freeze, however, was the fact that Josuke’s hair was down. No pompadour, no styling, nothing- he’d just combed it out and left it like that. “You can use my gel if you want, I’ve got plenty.”

Josuke shrugged and walked further into the room, trying to sound calm. “I wasn’t in the mood, I’ll do it later.”

Oh.

Oh no.

Josuke was NEVER not in the mood to do his hair in its iconic style. The only times he’d let it slide were when he was too injured to do it himself, and even then he complained about it until someone else was able to do it for him.

This was way worse than he thought…

“Uh, okay, sure…” Okuyasu tried not to sound as shocked as he felt, turning instead grab two bowls so he could dish out the zōsui. Once he had the bowls filled he grabbed two spoons and sat down at the small two-person table in the corner of the room. “Come on, let’s eat- I’m starving!” He gave Josuke a smile that he hoped didn’t look forced and held the other boy’s spoon out for him.

Josuke smiled back, but it still felt off. “Me too.” He said before taking the offered spoon and sitting across from his boyfriend to eat their simple but warming meal.

They ate in silence. A tense, uncomfortable one that made the weight of what hadn’t been said yet nearly suffocating to Okuyasu. He honestly thought that he might accidentally choke on the food a few times with how hard it got to swallow, but he pulled through. After all, he had to make sure that Josuke was taken care of, right? That’s what good boyfriends- and friends in general- were supposed to do, right?

……

The problem was that he didn’t really know what to do in this situation. This was probably the worst he’d ever seen the other teen since they’d met. Sure, he’d seen the faces and scars and feelings that Josuke had never wanted anyone else to see, and he knew how to comfort him and take care of him when it came to that sort of stuff.

THIS, though..THIS was new.

There was something wrong with Josuke and Okuyasu wanted so badly to fix it and make everything better, but he didn’t even know what was wrong.

He could ask, but he knew Josuke would probably say he was fine like he always did when something was bothering him..

He could try calling Jotaro and Jolyne to see if they had any ideas, but he didn’t want to make them panic and come all the way there in the storm..

He could try distracting him with some TV or something, but it might just feel more tense and awkward..

God, it was times like these that he cursed his stupidity. If he was smarter, then the answer would probably be so much easier to see! He was so useless, he-!

“You ever wonder what life would be like if you weren’t around?” Josuke’s voice suddenly interrupted his self-deprecating thoughts.

“Huh?” Okuyasu blinked in surprise and stared at his boyfriend in confusion. “Whattaya mean?”

“I dunno..just..” Josuke shrugged, looking down at his nearly empty bowl as he idly poked at the last bits of rice and egg at the bottom with his spoon. “Have you ever thought about what everyone’s lives would be like if you weren’t in it? If they would be…better off..?” He seemed to pick up what words were about to come out of Okuyasu’s mouth and re-worded his question. “Not in the ‘I’m going to run away or off myself because I’m a burden to everyone’ way, but just…I don’t know…just asking yourself if you really do anything to make everyone’s lives any better or worse than they already are…”

Okuyasu still frowned slightly at the idea behind the question. “Geez, man..I don’t know..I’m not that smart, so I don’t really think about that sort of stuff…” He let his chin rest in his hand that was propped up on the table, giving the question some thought. “If we’re talking about me, then, yeah, some people would probably be better off if I weren’t around..I mean, my bro would probably still be alive if he hadn’t shoved me away when Chili Pepper attacked…” He frowned a bit more, the memory still painful even after more than a year had passed. He shook his head, trying to dispel the sadness as he returned his gaze to his boyfriend. “But, if we’re talking about you, then no, I can’t think of anyone who’d be better off without you around.”

Josuke gave a short, deprecating laugh, his eyes still staying on his unfinished food. “I can..” He frowned as he stirred the meager contents of his bowl endlessly while he spoke. “If I was never born, then my mom wouldn’t’ve had to drop out of school to take care of me- she could’ve gotten a good job, still lived with her family, and maybe even married a nice guy who actually loved her, unlike my shitty old man. Speaking of him, if I wasn’t born, then his marriage wouldn’t have been ruined and Jotaro’s grandparents would still be together. Then there’s Jotaro and Jolyne, who’d probably have had a better childhood if they didn’t spend it constantly looking out for me.” His grip on his spoon became white-knuckled as he talked, his shoulders trembling slightly. “My grandpa would probably still be alive if someone else had been around to save him…Koichi would still be a normal high schooler and wouldn’t have gotten involved in any of these bizarre adventures…Shigechi would probably still be alive if he hadn’t met us…” He finally stopped moving the spoon and his head tilted downward, both of his shoulders shaking now. “I just…make everyone’s life worse…”

“What about me?” Okuyasu suddenly asked.

“You?” Josuke shook his head, giving another short laugh. “You’d probably be fine without me..hell, your brother might even still be around..”

“Are you kidding? I loved my bro, but even I knew what he was doing was messed up- he’d’ve probably gotten himself killed some other way, even if you never showed up.” Okuyasu stood up from the table and walked around to Josuke’s side, kneeling on the ground so he could force the other boy to look him in the eyes. “And everything else you said is bullshit.” He held up his fingers as he counted off every claim he made. “Your mom said that she never got along with her family anyway, right? Even if she didn’t have you, she’d probably have found some other reason to leave. Besides, she tells me all the time that you were the best thing to ever happen to her! She loves you a lot, Josuke.” He smiled slightly before rolling his eyes on his next point. “And don’t get me started on your old man. He chose to cheat on his wife and then left you and your mom by yourselves- he’s an asshole, if you ask me!” He looked back up at Josuke sympathetically. “And you know Jotaro and Jolyne don’t blame you for what happened- their mom doesn’t either. They LIKE having you around- you’re practically their little brother! And Koichi likes being your friend, so he doesn’t blame you for what happened, either! Sure, his life’s gotten pretty weird, but now he’s got way more friends than he did before, a hot girlfriend, and he gets to go on awesome adventures. As for your gramps and Shigechi…” He paused for a moment, looking away with a frown. “That…was pretty bad…but Angelo was gonna go after your gramps anyway, but you stopped him from getting to your mom or anyone else…and Shigechi…well…that one’s on both of us, if you wanna look at it that way..but most of the fault goes to that bastard Kira.” He sighed before looking back up at Josuke’s face, or at least what he could make out of it with how his head was tilted down and his hair hid his eyes. “Besides, if you weren’t around, my life would be a billion times worse: I’d still be following Keicho, doing what he said and listening to him tell me what an idiot I am…I wouldn’t have any friends…and,” He reached up with both hands and carefully pushed Josuke’s hair out of his face, revealing watery purple eyes. With a teary-eyed smile, Okuyasu cupped Josuke’s face between both hands, wiping away the other boy’s tears with his thumbs. “I wouldn’t have met the guy I wanted to spend my life with.”

“!!” For the second time that night, Josuke stared at Okuyasu in surprise before his expression grew into a tender, adoring smile. A watery laugh found its way out of his throat while his hands found their way Okuyasu’s own face to wipe away his tears in return. “The guy you wanna spend your life with? You sure you can say that after just one year?”

“Hell yeah, I’m sure- I would’ve said it after one month if I’d thought of it back then!” Okuyasu smiled more, gazing at the person he loved with all of his heart. “You’re the greatest guy I know: You’re smart. You’re fun as hell. You’re cool. You’re beautiful. You’re funny. You’re talented. You’re the most amazing person in the world.” He blushed slightly and looked away out of mild embarrassment, but his smile never faltered. “We’re still pretty young, and I don’t have anything I can give you right now- hell, I can’t really afford a wedding yet..but..I know it’s true..” He looked back up at Josuke, ignoring the way his heart pounded and his face burned just looking into those glistening eyes that enchanted him each and every day. “I love you, Josuke. I don’t care if I have to wait two years or twenty years to make it official, I just know that you’re the one I wanna spend the rest of my life with. So…don’t think for a second I’d be better off without you around, because I don’t ever wanna think of my life without you in it!”

Josuke was quiet for a while, simply staring at the other boy. Then, without warning, Josuke unceremoniously slipped out of his chair and tumbled right into Okuyasu’s arms, knocking both of them down onto the ground. Okuyasu was about to ask if he was okay, when three little words reached his ear.

“I’m with you.” Josuke propped himself up on his forearms on either side of Okuyasu’s head and gazed down at him with a grateful smile and a look of pure love and adoration in his eyes. “As long as you want me around, then I’m with you.”

Okuyasu grinned up at the other teen, wrapping his arms around Josuke to pull him back down on top of him. “So does that mean I get to keep you around forever?”

Josuke laughed at that, a bright, genuinely happy laugh that was so much more beautiful than the pained and depressed ones he’d let out before. “If you want me forever, then I’m with you forever, Oku.”

“Works for me!” Okuyasu exclaimed happily before pulling the other boy down into a loving kiss, one that was quickly and eagerly returned.

_____________________________________________________________

A couple of hours later, the pair of lovers had moved to Okuyasu’s bedroom. They were currently cuddling under the blankets with Okuyasu lying on his back and Josuke lying with his head on his boyfriend’s chest as he slept. Okuyasu wasn’t quite asleep yet, but he was working on it. For the moment, he was content to have Josuke there in his arms.

He probably would have fallen asleep just like that if he didn’t feel a familiar buzzing in his pants pocket. “??” Moving as carefully as he could to avoid waking Josuke up, Okuyasu managed to get one arm free and retrieved his phone from beneath the covers.

Looking at the screen, he found a text from Jotaro that was sent separate from the usual group chat.

Jotaro: “Any luck finding him?”

Okuyasu was about to type back a simple reply of “Yeah”, but looking at Josuke’s sleeping, peaceful face gave him an idea.

He raised the phone up high and took a picture of the two of them, smiling up at the camera while gently running his fingers through Josuke’s hair. There’d be time for explanations and stories about what was said and what their plans for the future would be. For now, he just wanted to enjoy this moment.

With that in mind, he sent the picture, along with a fitting caption:

Me: “He’s with me.”

End Notes: So, for the “Anything You Want” topic, I decided to do a sort of combination “Hurt/Comfort” and “Marriage Proposal” story, just because this was one of my favorite parts with these two in the RP that these stories are based off of.

Big thank you to @josuyasuweek for doing this event- it was a lot of fun ^.^

part 2 part 3 part 4

“Sup, baby Lupin,” James said, ruffling your hair as you sat down next to him. “You alright?” he said, noticing the dark circles under your eyes. You yawned, stretching. “M’ fine, Jamesy. Just tired.” He nodded, and poured some cereal for you as you rested your head on his shoulder. You almost fell asleep again until someone cleared their throat. You opened to your eyes, to see Remus glaring at you. “Remus, don’t be thick. James loves Lily, remember.”

Remus rolled his eyes, looking at James distrustfully. “It could all be a front, baby sis. Never trust men.” He paused for a moment. “Or women, actually. You know what? Just don’t trust anyone. Apart from me.” You smirked lazily. “Are you not a man, Remypoo?” 

He growled. “I told you never call me that! Shut up Peter,” he hissed to his laughing best friend. “And I am a man, but... that’s different.” You nodded knowingly. “Of course.” Suddenly, Sirius sat down next to you, and rested his head on your shoulder, yawning. Remus looked at him, smirking. “Let me guess. Tired?”

Sirius looked up, deadpan. “No, I’m high. What do you think, Moony, I just yawned.” Peter laughed again, until Remus stuffed a sausage in his mouth. “Why are you guys so tired, anyways?” Peter said, muffled by the sausage.

You froze, Sirius going stiff beside you. “Homework.” you blurted out, Sirius relaxing. Once the conversation had moved on, you shared a relieved glance with Sirius. If Remus found out about you guys sneaking out to Hogsmeade, he would kill Sirius, best friend or not. Your thoughts went back to last night, the taste of Honeydukes chocolate still in your mouth.

You were lying awake, the snores of your roommates the only thing you could hear. Suddenly, there was a knock at your window, and Sirius’ grinning face peered through the glass, locking eyes with you. You yanked the duvet back, quickly putting on slippers as to not make noise, and grabbed a coat, before opening the window. “Fancy seeing you here,” Sirius smirked, before helping you onto his broom. “You good?” he checked, smiling when you nodded, before zooming off, your shriek echoing through the night.

Your arms went around his waist, in an almost painfully tight grip, eyes squinted against the wind. Sirius looked round at you, smiling reassuringly. “Listen to me Lupin, I got you.” You smiled back, relaxing slightly, and soon, you could see buildings, and then the chatter of people. Sirius gently touched down, and you straightened yourself out, flattening your hair. Sirius grabbed your hand as you started to walk off, swinging your arms as you walked into the heart of Hogsmeade. “Where do you want to go first?” he murmured in your ear. You looked around thoughtfully, the shiny packaging of Honeydukes treats catching your eye. Sirius caught on, and led you to the shop. Just as you were about to go in, the owner, Ambrosius Flume, flipped the sign to show ‘closed’. You frowned, about to turn away when he opened the door to smile at you. “If it isn’t two of my favourite customers. Come in, come in.” You smiled gratefully at him, walking into the shop and going straight for your favourite, Chocoballs, picking up two before heading to the till, Sirius joining you with a handful of Fizzing Whizbees, plonking them on the counter. Flume grabbed a paper bag and put the treats in, handing it to you with a smile. 

“Oh, that’s very kind, but we must pay for these,” you said, digging out your purse. Flume shook his head. “To the happy couple.” You smiled at Sirius, picking up the bag and leaving the shop with a ‘thank you’ shouted behind you. Finding an empty bench, you sat down, resting your head on Sirius’ shoulders as you both munched on a Chocoball. Once you had finished, Sirius turned to you, a gleam in his eye. “I’ve got an idea.” He grabbed two Fizzing Whizbees, offering one to you. Curiously, you ate it at the same time, before floating, you grabbing his arms to steady yourself.  Sirius grabbed the bag and gave you another one to keep you up, before placing his arms round your waist, yours going around his neck. Slowly, he began to dance with you, twirling you round in the air as you giggled. 

“Charmer, aren’t you?” you laughed, your eyes shining. Sirius grinned, dipping you. “You know it, babe.” he whispered before softly kissing you, the lamppost above bathing you in yellow light. 

A click broke the two of you apart, as you gently sank to the ground. A photographer was smiling at you two, holding out a photo. “Sorry to interrupt, but I thought you might want this,” he said as you took it, smiling softly at the scene. It looked like it had come out of a movie. “Thank you,” Sirius said, the photographer walking off. 

Sirius had his arms around you as you stared at the photo for a moment, before looking up at him. “I’m feeling like Butterbeer.” He took your hand again, and led you to the Three Broomsticks, where Madam Rosmerta was wiping the bar down. She turned round, smiling warmly at the two of you. “What can I get you?”

“Two of your finest Butterbeers, please.” You giggled at Sirius as he put on a posh accent, going to sit down at a table as Rosmerta brought the drinks over. “On the house,” she said, humming as she walked off. You started drinking your Butterbeer, but a screeching sound made you put it down. You stared at Sirius exasperatedly as he shuffled his chair over to yours, the legs squeaking against the floor. You rested your head on his shoulder, swiping some of the foam off your drink and wiping it on your boyfriend’s face, laughing as he gaped at you, before he did the same to you. You scrunched your face up in disgust, laughing even more as he licked it off, shoving him away. “You’re more like Snuffles every day, babe.”

“Oh shush, you love Snuffles.” You grinned at him, kissing his nose. “I do. Do you know if you can make the change permanent?”

Sirius rolled his eyes. “Haha, you’re so funny.” You took another sip of your Butterbeer, savouring the taste. “I am, aren’t I. I should be a comedian.” Sirius nodded, his eyes sparkling. “That would be a sight.” You shoved him, laughing at his Butterbeer moustache. He smirked, before pulling you into a searing kiss, sending all thoughts of comedians out your head. He pulled back, locking eyes with you. “Better?” You paused for a moment, trying to figure out what he was talking about, before noticing his moustache had disappeared. “You’re going to be the death of me, Sirius Black.” He laughed, booping your nose. “I’m counting on it.”

Sirius cleared his throat, bringing you back to the present. Everybody was starting to get up, and he hung back for a minute, waiting until Remus had gone out of earshot. “You wanna sneak out again tonight?” he whispered hopefully. You sighed in disappointment. “Babe, I would, but I’ve got to go to the library.” Sirius scrunched his face up in disgust. “Ew, why?” You laughed, gently knocking shoulders with him. “I want to look something up.” He shrugged. “See you later, I guess.” You nodded, and watched him walk off. As soon as he was gone, you pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from your pocket, making a mental note of the books listed on it. ‘Animagus for Dummies’ was the first one, and at the bottom you had scribbled ‘ask McGonagall?’ Suddenly a cough made you jump and turn round to find McGonagall staring at you. “Ask McGonagall what?” she asked, her voice curt. You fumbled, panicking before she spoke again, quieter. “Come to my office at seven. We’ll talk.”

NCT: The Mafia Game (dons part one)

preview: “uh i just moved here and i found--” there’s a strong hand that pulls on your neck and right onto the guy’s face. he stares at you for a long while, as if trying to remember your features. 

note: meet my bias wrecker atm (psst! this is super long)

the neighbourhood that you lived at was notorious for being ridden with crimes and illegal acts in general. but being the broke university student you were, it was a home >>>>> safety

no way in hell were u living in the streets

a warm home is better than none... right?

the rent was cheap and it was only half an hour away from ur uni-- so really, there was no reason to as why u shouldn’t have sealed the deal

the middle aged lady who handed u the keys looked like she wanted to throw herself off the fifth floor-- and never look back

she just grumbles about not forgetting rent and hikes back down the long trail of stairs-- 

ofc theres no elevator 

you take your only suitcase inside to see a barren landscape. there was literally no furniture and you curse your luck that u didn’t look over the contract details more closely

so u sort of set up a futon style accomodation using the blanket u bought and some towels

it was kinda late by the time u unpacked (by that i mean scatter everything on the floor)

there’s a loud noise outside and it was as if someone fell down--

so with the courage of a tin can, u sort of crab walked towards your door and opened it slightly, peeking thro the dim lighting

there’s a body on the floor and u sort of threw the door open and went over to the body-- it’s a guy-- was the first thing u noticed and you kind of skim over the content of the crime scene to deduct that he was alone-

so you kind of flip him over

(and that flipped u off)

because there’s a pure, raw stab wound on his left abdomen and ur kinda (morethan) shook because you’re not a med student or anything but u briefly recalled the first aid class u took during high school

so as best as u can, you dragged the male, almost twice your size, into the comfort of your strictly barren home and rummaged through the content of antiseptic and measly bandages you had to help him stop bleeding

there’s a groan as a response when you peel off the shirt drowning in blood with an apology for invading his privacy (but otherwise he could potentially die??)

and put pressure on the wound and the male trashed in response, his eyes opened slightly, chest heaving and perspiration running down his temple

“w-who?” he barely managed, before you accidentally added more pressure due to shock

“uh i just moved here and i found--” there’s a strong hand that pulls on your neck and right onto the guy’s face

he stares at you for a long while, as if trying to remember your features

you notice his clear eyes, nose, and slowly trail down to his lips. if this guy wasn’t the definition of attractive-- you srsly don’t know what would be

the hand on your neck slowly moves on to the space between your shoulder and your neck

it’s so intimate for a first encounter, and you kind of squeak out as a result

“u-uh, the- the ointment” you stutter out, reaching out for the antiseptic “this will hurt” you gave out the precaution, but there was no reply aside from the extensive gaze

the male clenches down on his teeth as you apply the medicament as gently as possible, and then grabs the biggest bandage you could find before covering the wound with it

you don’t know if it’s right or wrong but at least he’s not bleeding out profusely anymore and you’re about to grab your phone to call emergency services so he could be properly treated at a hospital

“what are you doing?” there’s more a glare to his eyes than before

“im not a professional,” you admitted cleanly. “and i think you need further treatment, so i’m calling the--”

“end the call”

“huh?”

“i said end the call” there’s a chill that goes down your spine and you sort of pressed the button in reflex

the guy lets out a vague exhale when he sees you sort of shiver in your spot

“i don’t feel as if i’m dying anymore” he looks away while saying this “and lend me your phone, i’ll have someone pick me up”

so you kind of handed it to him and he’s having much difficulty trying to lift his arm up because everywhere hurts and god knows how many muscles in the abdomen is triggered

“maybe i can ring it and then pass it to you?” 

and the guy sort of shrugs and gives it back to you while reciting the number. you then proceed to put the phone against his ear

“hey, pick me up. i’m...” he looks at you with a questioning gaze and you sort of tilt your head at this but then whispers the address. “yeah it’s the one beside the meeting point. they broke their end of the deal but i have what we needed so tell taeyong to stop worrying”

and then the two of you kind of stayed still in that awkward position

“name”

you look at him again, brows raised “what?”

“your name. what is it?”

you’re not keen on passing out your identity to random strangers- esp not in this dodgy complex... but maybe he just wants to thank you? so you’re positive and trusting and hands him over your name

he doesn’t reply after that because there’s a knock on your door and you’re reluctant to open it but the guy on the ground nods at you “it’s probably my friend but just ask if he’s jaehyun”

as you inch towards the entrance, you kinda stumble over your words,,,

“is it... uh... j-jaehyun?”

there’s a short break in the knocking and a low, “yes” took place

so you open the door and an equally dashing presence enters your view

the guy-- jaehyun-- nods at you in acknowledgement and walk towards the figure on the floor.

“you look worse than i thought” jaehyun joked, first thing in the morning (well technically it was 12:07... so)

“shut up” 

so jaehyun hauls the guy over his shoulder, and using enough sense to rest him on the side without the wound (but the injured dude still flinched anyway

before jaehyun fully passes you, the guy says something unexpected

“i’m doyoung” 

so the night was craaaazzyyyy but you sort of lived through it and cleaned up the blood stains on the floor and finally got to bed

you try not to think of everything that just happened (it was all too vivid) and try to focus on having a productive day at uni tomorrow with hopefully no distractions

the next morning was normal-- no wounded guys outside your door-- and you wake up extra early, around 6ish, to make your way to uni

at this time, none of the other tenants are awake so its nice and peaceful

and the next few days continued in the same routine

it was exactly a week since that you’re back from your long day of studies and part time job that you find a figure leaning against your door

at first you’re on defence, getting the umbrella inside your bag ready (the lighting was dim omfg)

and then when you near and was about to attempt a hit with the said umbrella the figure notices you and sort of defended himself first

“it’s doyoung”

and you stop and try and rack your mind for the name

it is late

and u were technically half ded

but then

it came

oh

doyoung

d o y o u n g

OOHHHHHHHHHHHH

you lowered your umbrella and sort of tilted your head horizontally to try to examine his wound but ofc there’s a shirt over it and u don’t have xray vision (u wish tho) (sort of) (maybe) 

the corner of doyoung’s lips raise as he looks over you but nods towards your door

“it isn’t polite to keep a guest outside”

and then you purse your lips “are you always this snappy?”

doyoung shrugs but you sigh and opens the door for him

there’s still nothing inside but he’s seen it so you kind of drop your bag once you’re inside and reminds doyoung to lock the door after him

doyoung takes his time to look around for good this time and comments, “there really was nothing”

and you shrug while rummaging through the cabinet for a midnight snack “im broke” was all that was needed to be said

“still” doyoung addressed “you need a bed at least. and maybe a fridge”

“there’s a working bathroom and that’s good enough for me” you shrug again, successfully pulling out a snack you bought a few days ago

“what is that” doyoung stares at the snack in your hand

and ur starting to wonder if he’s a foreigner

“it’s my dinner” you say , not ashamed at all

the dude just gasps at you in shock “theres no nutritional value in it whatsoever” he iterates very slowly, as if you were a five year old

you sigh as you take a seat on the floor, plopping another one piece of the snack into your mouth

“okay so i saved you and this is what i get? ofc i know it’s not good for me but it’d rather eat something than starve okay”

doyoung hesitates to reply and it kinda aggravates you a little because why is he back??? he hadn’t thanked u this whole time and ur kinda slightly maybe very little a bit pissed at that

like ur work is a charity u know but dude u deserved a thank you at the very least

so you popped the question

“why are you here”

“...why do you think i’m here”

you’re literally on your last strand of hair, “we’re not playing twenty questions and it’s late. i need to sleep.”

doyoung cocks a brow at you but gets the message and turns to leave

he opens the door slightly and turns back to look at you,

“i was here to express my gratitude since you literally saved my life. but i guess you don’t need that.”

and he disappears into the night

you literally feel bad as soon as he left but ur kinda stressed juggling uni and working too many job for your own good

so you sleep and try to forget it all

he won’t come back anyways

no point on crying over spilled milk

but o H BO YYYYY

you’re wrong

because the next morning, there’s a knock on your door as you were getting ready for uni once again, eyebags and all

and the moment u opened the door, your eyes just widen

“why are you here” you’re a broken machine w no creative content, pls bear with me

doyoung sort of holds back a smile at this because you look so lost and your bed hair was everywhere-- literally

“i’m resilient” was all he said as he brings up a plastic bag “figured that you probably wouldn’t eat breakfast” he hands it over to you “i’ve got your lunch covered too so eat it on your way to school”

and u froze

“how.... did you know i was a student”

doyoung doesn’t even try to look sorry, “i did a little digging”

oh

well ok

???!?!?!?!!?!?!!??!

since when was it legal to look someone up like that??

“why?” there’s a cockiness to his whole composure “are you going to kick me out again?”

well yes mister ofc

you’re invading my privacy

no matter how drop dead gorgeous you are this is like-- not acceptable

“yeah” you boldly answered, “i am. what of it?”

doyoung looks as if debating something before taking a step closer to you

“uhhh what are you doing”

and he’s literally thisclose to you that you feel his breath hovering over your lips

“im just wondering” he speaks in a lower tone, almost as if the both of you weren’t meant to say a word in this situation

you’re too mesmerised by his orbs to notice anything else but you gotta stay strong for pride’s sake and so you lean back and give him the dirtiest glare you could muster

it isn’t a frequent occasion that you could brace yourself under the presence of such a good looking person

...even though he seems like a shady guy

but still good looking

this doesn’t deter doyoung as he traps you onto the wall, hands on either side “if you know what i do, i don’t think that you would be so mean to me”

“well i don’t want to know more about you”

“oh really”

“very much so”

there’s a chuckle that decorates doyoung’s pretty features before his right hand lightly holds onto your chin and he sweeps down to press a kiss on your lips

Insomnia // Hwang Hyunjin [bulleted scenario!]

Summary: In which you and Hyunjin are both too oblivious to realize your true feelings... until it’s too late? 

Genre: angsty, floooof, gender neutral 

Word Count: 2175

Warnings: Just some cursing 

A/N: This is my first time writing a bulleted scenario and i quite enjoyed it :) idk it’s fun to not care about settings too much and punctuation and stuff. I also liked adding my own little dumb remarks here are there :PP it was fuN! This was another scenario that kinda arose while i was napping i hope you guys enjoy it! <3 i love stray kids 

i’m also gonna try to make all my scenarios gender neutral from now on (unless specifically requested) b/c we are all about inclusivity here !! :)

This was originally gonna be like a real fic

But the writers block was REAL like i really tried to set the scene and everything

But it didn’t turn out right

And i really wanted to get this one out so HERE WE ARE TRYING THE BULLETED SCENARIO OKAY YAY LETS BEGIN!

Trainee au!! Kinda :D

Like skz didnt go through the survival show yet

Ok so SEtting thE SCeNe~~~~

You just walked into the jyp building bc jyp hired you as a new producer

Like to study under him and potentially help w producing in the future

Like jyp 2.0 ya know

Jyp meets w you himself bc you’re like a prodigy

And a foreigner so he thought you’d be more comfortable w him speaking toyou in english :D

So he explained what you gotta do during your training period

Like studying more about composition and production

Learning korean to more easily communicate w idols and what not

And also honing your own style and figuring out who you are as an artist

So he pairs you up w the trainees bc it be good practice

More specifically skz bc they seem to have a more flexible style

Also like he thought it would be good for you to work w chan and the rest of 3racha

Like bc yall around the same age

And it helps you become more comfy

And familiar w the company and the producing rooms and recording studios and what no

Like

Yer

And then like

Through working w them to produce a song for the trainee showcase

Yall get mad close

And like

You have your eyes on hyunjin from the start

Like bc who couldn’t

Like

Gorgeous boy

At first you were just like “this is admiration”

“He very handsome i just admire his features”

Yeah

And maybe it was..

At first

Now it's a full blown crush

Like

For real

That boy is so hard working

Like you constantly see him asking for help

So he can improve

And like

People always said he was a visual only

Which made you feel bad that you saw that at first 

But you realized later

That like

You actually like him bc of his personality

What a hard worker 

For real

Angel

Anyways

Little did you know that your crush was NOT one sided

Hyunjin admired your hard work in producing

And how you always took criticism well and only worked to improve your work

Also

He thought you were hella cute

So yall were both kinda obvious

Him more than you

Like by a loT

So skz knew for a fact that hyunjin was head over heels in love w you so they pushed him to confess to you

Yeah he was like no

But after PEEr pRessUre

He finally agreed

They was gonna plan something like a party for you

To celebrate the time you’ve been w the company

But the showcase came before the celebration and suddenly they were on a survival show to see who would debut

So the party was postponed OOOODDDDD

But you didnt even know it was gonna happen so you didnt mind anyways

Soon enough it got closer to your birthday, and skz just decided to make it a birthday celebration instead

Hyunjin was more iffy about confessing bc what if you dont feel the same and he ruins your bday oh no

But at this point, skz was sure you liked him back so they were like dont worry about that they aren’t like that your relationship will be fine

So the party happens ladida

You were super surprised and sosososososo happy

Bc like

Your hart

These boys were precious and totally made your day

Tbh bc of your work

You almost forgot it was your birthday

After the crazy loud party, you wanted to like take some quiet time for yourself so you excused yourself

And then walked to the hallway and sat by the window and looked out at the city and the night sky

Beautiful

And suddenly you heard footsteps

It was this boy named jason who you were friends with

He was from the same town you were from so you got close p quickly when you first got to jyp

And jason had a not-so-secret crush on you

That ofc you were oblivious to

But he came over there to spend time w you and wish you happy bday

Little did you know

Hyunijn was mentally preparing himself to confess to you down the hall and around the corner w a pretty bouquet of flowers what a sweet boy

And when he finally works up the courage, he turns the corner and sees jason giving you a bday hug 

And he cant help but feel his hart drop

Yall look good together and like you were from the same town so similarities

So he was heartbroken needless to say

 He quickly turned around and walked away

But you heard the footsteps and saw just a glance of his outfit retreating

You excused yourself from jason’s company and ran after him bc you are so in love w this boy

You were gonna hug him and thank him, but when you approached he took a step back

Like ow

That hurt

He quickly stammered that he had to go home bc he was tired and left

He was hiding the flowers behind his back :’(

And then tossed them as soon as he left the building

He went for a long ass walk to clear his mind and soothe his aching heart

You were so worried

Was he okay?

You went home soon after bc you couldnt help but worry and that made you super tired

But you couldn't sleep

InsOMniA

Goddamn it hyunjin

You messaged him

“you’re prob sleeping but i hope you feel better”

Dry ass reply: “thx”

Like wow

Rude

But you let it go

jic he was actually really exhausted

You knew he took criticism from the show too so maybe it was that

Hopefully he’d talk to you about it bc he usually did

But he didn't

He avoided you

Your heart really couldnt take it

Meanwhile you and jason got closer bc you didnt have hyunjin to hang out w anymore

Despite your many efforts

And this just further fuels his belief that yall are together

So to ignore the tinge in his heart every time he saw you, he buried himself in practice

Didn't sleep

Didnt drink enough water

Didnt eat enough

He was getting dangerously skinny and unhealthy

And it affected his attitude

Not only to you but to his members

One day you were asked to come in and monitor a recording session

And he was happy and giggly in front of the camera

But as soon as it turned off u could see the fatigue

And you told him that he should take better care of himself

And he SNAPPEd at you

 You actually flinched bc he was so aggressive

Your heart SHATTEREd

And you, also sleep deprived as FUCk

Slapped him

Not super hard, but like a “what the fuck is wrong with you”

And you walked right out, not even bothering to hide your tears

And he was sad but he thought that you hating him would help him get over you

What a dumb boy

You completely avoided him after that

You also still had restless nights 

God that convo kept playing over and over in your head

YOU COULDNT SLEEP

But one day you got a call from chan

He needed your help

Hyunjin was seriously overworking himself and he was afraid hyunjin was gonna collapse

Luckily you were still at the company working on smth bc ofc you couldn't sleep anyways so might as well make use of your time

So you finally agree bc even if you’re still angry at him, you are srsly worried about this boy

And when you get to the dance room your heart breaks all over again

Hes so pale

And sickly looking

And hes shaking but hes still dancing

You knock and hear a gruff “its open”

The music pauses for a moment but when he sees its you he scoffs and turns it back on

“what do you want”

“Uhm.. are you okay?”

“Why? You wanna slap me again to make me feel better?”

Ofc you rolled your eyes bc wtf hyunjin you were being nice

“I dont even know why i bothered”

You go over to the stereo and turn it off yourself

And he turns to you angry

ARGUMENT TIME

Him: “WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?”

“MY PROBLEM?!!!?!?? YOU’RE THE ONE WHO PUSHED ME AWAY FOR NO DAMN REASON!! AND EVEN AFTER ALL THAT, I STILL TRIED TO BE NICE AND ASK IF YOU WERE OKAY. I WAITED FOR YOU TO OPEN UP TO ME. TO TALK TO ME ABOUT WHATEVER WAS BOTHERING YOU!”

At this point, you’re practically sobbing like udk if he can understand you but who cares

All this frustration that was pent up inside felt good being released

Bc at this point, you had nothing more to lose

Hyunjin already hated you so like why not just speak your mind amirite

 Anyways continuing w the dialogue:

“HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT MY PROBLEM WHEN MY PROBLEM IS YOU!”

Cue awkward pause/break thing (AWKwARD SiLEncE)

“What are you talking about hyunjin?”

He sighed defeatedly

It was now or never. He felt like his relationship w you was ruined already anyways

So he, like you, also had a ‘what do i have to lose’ mentality

“I was going to confess to you y/n. That night at your birthday party. But i was too late. I saw you with jason and you looked so happy and perfect together.  So i left. I cut my ties with you because i didn’t want my own feelings to get in the way of your happiness.”

You were completely utterly speechless

Like there were an overwhelming number of feelings enveloping you atm

Bc on the one hand:

The love of your life just confessed to you

But on the other

Like

What a dumbass

You end up laughing and scoffing at his words bc

Hes so dumb

You dont like jason

God you’ve been in love w hyunjin for so goddamn long

And now you’re debating over how to respond

But like your anger and frustration kinda takes precedence bc youre also sleep deprived and you go

“ so, you broke your own heart and then you broke mine because you didn’t want to talk to me about it you dumbass ????”

And he gives you that classic confused puppy-dog look

W the head tilt and everything

And you go

“Hwang hyunjin, i’m fucking in love with you”

And he just stares blankly at you and blinks like 8 times trying to comprehend what just came out of your mouth

And his lips form an ‘o’ shape

And then hes coming closer and wrapping his arms around you

And you dont even mind that hes still sweaty and kinda smelly

Bc hes finally in your arms

But holding him so close also makes you super aware of just how skinny he’s gotten

Like it was worse than you thought

So you pull back and you open your mouth to chastise him

But before you can even start he’s cupping your cheeks can pulling your face to his

Your lips collide and then they're molding into one another

And your mind kinda blanks out

But your automatic reaction seems to be letting your fingers run through his hair and pulling him closer towards you

And when yall finally come up for breath

He tries to go in for another one like immediately after

Like slow your roll boy you guys can kiss all you want later

If you said that out loud, he wouldve responded w something like “we gotta make up for lost time”

But you put your hands on his chest and hold him back

And he pouts

(you almost squeal at how cute he looks)

“Ok, now that we’re dating, i am literally commanding you to take better care of yourself because this,” you eye him up and down, “is unacceptable”

And he quirks an eyebrow up and is like

Oh? I don’t recall asking you out? On a date?”

And you get all blushing and become a blubbering mess and hide your face in his chest like

“Shut up hyunjin”

But he’s just giggling at your embarrassed face :D

Then, him being the dramatic hoe that he is, he gets down on one knee in front of you and says

“y/n, y/l/n, will you go out on a date with me?”

And ofc u say yes

And after that whole dramatic scene, you pull him out of the practice room, fingers intertwined, ready to stuff him with food

And he goes

“I dont think i said it back.”

“Said what back?”

“That i love you”

UWU

And the rest is history

Mark of the Beast CH2

And chapter 2 is here! Chapter 3 is currently being written atm so hopefully it shouldnt take too long. but till then enjoy some more feels~

Summary: Fukami hasn’t been doing too well, she wished they had longer but she knew their fate the moment they met. Its not easy having a kraken as your familiar. 

"Is he alright...?"

Wadanohara walked downstairs only to stumble upon Dolphi and Memoca at the front of the stairs looking up at her, worried. It was sweet to know how much they cared for each other; when Fukami had collapsed on the boat, Dolphi ran out despite her fear for the weather. The two looked up to Fukami, and sometimes Wadanohara did too. He always protected them when things got hard. Despite how little he spoke, he was kind to them. It made Wadanohara feel happy to know, despite how isolated Fukami felt at times, he really was loved. But her mind returned to the more pressing matters at hand.

She sighed and walked down to meet them, trying her best to sound reassuring. "He's fine now; just a bit exhausted, so it's best to let him rest."

The two familiars looked to each other and just nodded and grinned. "Good, I thought I needed to go upstairs there and cheer him up myself," Memoca proclaimed, holding her hands to her hips proudly. Dolphi giggled, amused by her actions as the two began to talk to each other about how they would try and make him happy when he wakes up.

As they chatted, Wadanohara snuck out and away. When she got outside, she carefully shut the door and set her sights on the castle. Not really wanting to be held up by anyone encountering her, she focused her magic to summon her anchor. Pulling it down to be level with her, she carefully climbed on and pushed her feet off the ground to get some distance before setting off at high speeds. Her hair blew hard against the air; she had to keep a hand on her hat at all times so it wouldn't fall off. The world below her looked wonderful. It was so nice to see the town from up top. Though it was more of a blur, she did appreciate the times she was able to just fly above.

Once she reached the castle, the anchor burst into small bubbles. She pushed hard on the large doors, hearing them creak loudly as she cracked them open.

"Wadanohara?"

She jumped, shocked, and almost lost her balance, tumbling backwards to be caught in the arms of a surprised Tatsyumia.

"A-Ah!" In a flush of embarrassment, Wadanohara leapt to her feet and looked down shy.

Tatsyumia couldn't help but smile in amusement. "Sorry, I couldn't help myself. What are you doing here then?" she queried, looking at Wada's startled expression.

It was actually perfect timing that she would find her mentor here alone, instead of trying to ask for her privately in front of the others. Tugging Tatsyumia's arm, she wore a worried frown. "I need your help... It's Fukami."

Tatsyumia's curious face turned grim as she took Wadanohara by the hand and led her across the bridge to a more secluded area near the old sea. Once they were alone, she sighed and turned to Wadanohara, sounding gentle but still had a stern tone to her voice. "Is it happening?"

"I... I'm not sure... When we were coming back, he just collapsed! It was scary... He couldn't breathe, and he was trembling. I had to use my magic to knock him out before he harmed himself." Wadanohara explained looking away, regretting not realising something was wrong sooner. It was terrifying, watching her own friend cry in pain right in front of her and not even knowing what she could do. "When I checked his mark, it was pretty warm. He told me it would burn at times."

Tatsyumia sighed and took a few steps away to look out to the horizon. It was a tense atmosphere. Wadanohara had never thought she would ever have to talk about Fukami's condition so soon. She had assumed it would take much longer before he would even show signs, or that he had overcome it during the time they had spent together. But it seems it was all in vain...

"Don't worry, Wadanohara..." Her mentor's hands touched her face, gentle and slow. "It's good you've come to me now rather than later. Can you bring him here when you get the chance? I think the princess should know."

Nodding, they both just stood in silence and shook their heads to try and get out of this grim atmosphere. Even though Wadanohara was nervous, she was glad she had someone to go to. Wadanohara herself had no clue what on Earth she would do if she had to figure it out herself. She had never personally experienced anything quite like this... It was something her father and Tatsyumia knew better.

"Thank you." She smiled, feeling Tatsyumia ruffle her hair as she summoned her anchor.

All she could do now was just wait and see.

--

"Guys, I'm back, I was just taking a walk-"

When Wadanohara returned home, she was met with a rather funny sight. Fukami, seemingly already a lot better when she had seen him before, was sitting on the couch with both Memoca and Dolphi beside him. The two was busy fussing over him with plasters and drawings to make him feel better. His arms were completely covered in bandages, which from observation were poorly tied. Fukami noticed Wadnohara come in and despite his blank look, she could tell he was a bit uncomfortable.

Wadanohara couldn’t help but laugh, alerting the other two. "What are you two doing?"

Memoca quickly sat up and waved at Wada as she approached them to sit on the other side. "We decided to take care of Fukami while you were gone since he was hurt!"

Wadanohara was tempted to tell them it wasn't really physical pain that was burdening him, but just seeing how much they cared was sweet. She giggled, "Ok, you two, I'll take over now."

They nodded and hugged Fukami before running into the other room. Once they had left, Fukami let out a long sigh and slouched on the couch. He looked exhausted from all the attention. She went over and gently started to unravel the bandages from his arms. Fukami looked away as she got close, his heart racing as he felt her warmth.

Wadanohara, however, wasn't aware of Fukami's embarrassment as she gently took off the plasters and stepped back with a smile. "Sorry I was gone for so long, I went to see Tatysumia."

Fukami flinched. "I don't need her help..."

It was a sore spot for Fukami, regarding the members of the castle. Wadanohara wasn't sure what had exactly went down before she had met him, but it was clear it was something he refused to talk about. She wasn't around when the red sea was sealed away, but sometimes she wishes she was, just to see what had happened. It was obvious Fukami was there before Wadanohara was even born. It was odd to see him get defensive over the past when normally he was indifferent to a lot of things. He might not show it as obvious as Memoca would; he was more subtle with his emotions, something Wadanohara had learned to understand over time. Fukami was socially awkward, being isolated for most of his life, and the constant abuse and hate he received from others made it hard for him to fully express himself. Wadanohara learned there were two things Fukami felt safe doing: one big one was using his tentacles. It was super rare when Fukami would do anything with his hands, as he always had his tentacles on the job to do whatever he wanted while his hands were tucked away in pockets or hidden.

Wadanohara was always interested in familiars, or creatures as a whole. From living in the sea kingdom, there were always two types: ones who preferred to stay in their original form, and those who could change into a human at will. Of course the traits of whatever animal they originally were would show in their new form, some more subtle than others. What came with that also was their instincts. Familiars, despite how much they seem human, are still creatures in the end, creatures who developed and learned over time. In a sense, they had their own form of magic. She would instantly think of her own familiars in her observations. It seemed people like Sal and Samekichi were able to alter forms back and forth, while Memoca and Dolphi, being the youngest of the group, only maintained their human forms. A part of her assumed it was preference, but also how strong the familiar was. Transforming back and forth was the same as using her magic - you needed endurance.

And then there was Fukami. When Wadanohara looked at him, he was different. Not in a drastic way – no – it was how you could tell what his mannerisms were like. Despite his human body, he relied more on his tentacles and animal senses more than anything else. She had always meant to ask him all sorts of questions, but for him it was a bit more sensitive than that. Never once had Wadanohara encountered an octopus with the mark – heck, finding any octopuses lately was a rare occurrence. Most had been locked away or killed in the past. For Fukami to be the newest victim to its curse made her heart hurt. If her theory was correct, down the line it wouldn't be long before Fukami would forget even her, he would forget his morals... who his friends were... The only remaining thought on his mind would be to hunt and destroy.

And of course, there's the other thing Fukami fell back on for reassurance: the fact he wasn't forced to speak. Fukami never really said much, mainly more on the moments where it was needed. Idle chatter was something he tried to avoid, but not because he didn't want to – God, no. It took Wadanohara a week for him to confess, he just... genuinely didn't know what to say. Being away from people for so long, he wasn't even sure how to have a normal conversation, always fearing he might say something wrong.

Just unraveling the bandages from his arms, she couldn't help but look at him with concern. He was still too young for this... much too young. For him to start showing signs terrified the sea witch.

"What am I going to do with you...?" she muttered softly, cupping his cheek in her hand. Fukami didn't say anything but looked at her surprised as she gently pressed her forehead onto his. "I promise I'll help you... So please, you need to trust me on this."

The two stayed there in silence. Fukami carefully reached out to touch her arm, but flinched and withdrew. Instead he let his tentacle do the job, brushing her hair back and pulling her to sit down beside him. Despite his discomfort to receiving help, he loved Wadanohara... He loved her with all his life. The fact she was even doing all of this for him was a foreign feeling, something he didn’t want to lose.

He sighed. "I'll accompany you tomorrow to the castle..."

Wada smiled. “Good. Now you need more rest, ok?”

Fukami was about to argue he wasn’t tired, but the drowsy feeling told him otherwise. He grumbled to himself as he laid down, slowly resting his head on her lap, his body getting weak as he felt himself slip away. He looked absolutely adorable to Wadanohara, who thought it was nice seeing him calm. Looking out the window, it was already beginning to get dark out. Her own eyes began to close as she yawned and tried to sit up. But she felt Fukami's tentacle tug her arm not to leave, mumbling something as he pulled her closer to him. Flustered though amused, Wadanohara stayed put until he was satisfied. Her hand absentmindedly stroked his hair, feeling for his neck to feel if it was warm. It still was, but not as bad as it had been a while ago. His breathing was slow and steady. Curling around Wada slightly, he looked vulnerable. Her smile faltered as she looked at the window. “I'll keep you safe… I promise.”

--

“Wake up! I'm hungry!”

Wadanohara jolted awake, face to face with Memoca on her bed, who was staring at her with a pout on her face. It took her a few seconds to realise she had fallen asleep in her dress. She also realised that last night she'd slept with Fukami. That made her heart race with embarrassment. She jumped up, looking around, and noticed he was still sleeping with his face buried in the pillow. It looked hilarious – his hair was ruffled up and he was tossing and turning in his sleep.

“A-Ah… I'll be downstairs soon.” Watching Memoca go downstairs, she sighed and walked to a mirror to inspect how she looked. Her clothes were wrinkled from rolling around in them. Thankfully, Wada knew just the spell to fix it. She gave her skirt a quick brush off before closing her eyes. Her hands gathered energy as she focused on her clothes, and soon they glowed faintly, restoring their condition nice and proper. She gave a little twirl around, happy with the results, and followed Memoca downstairs.

Some time had passed, and Fukami had finally opened his eyes. “Hnn…” he grumbled, lifting his head from the pillow, dazed to what was going on.

“Morning Fukami, how are you feeling?” Wadanohara asked curiously, walking beside his bed.

She watched him groggily sit up, rubbing his eyes. “Still tired…” he groaned.

He would do his routine Wada had watched him do countless of times. His tentacles would do all the work while he would try to wake up. He slipped his coat off and hung it up while brushing his hair. It must be useful to multitask the way he did, Wada thought to herself, watching how easy it was for him. With magic, sure, she could do the same thing, yet it never really occurred to her as something she needed to do. For Fukami, however, it was just part of his nature.

“Are you making breakfast...?”

She snapped out of her thoughts. “Ah, you're right!” She exclaimed, quickly running downstairs before Memoca would try and tackle her out of hunger, leaving him alone.

--

God, that was so embarrassing, Fukami thought, his hands covering his face as he moaned in agony. He laid on her lap, and made her stay! Normally he wouldn’t do that, he was too shy and stubborn. To Wadanohara, he had to be her mentor, her familiar... And yet, he felt safe in her warmth. He could hear her downstairs with the others as he laid back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. He’ll come downstairs later, he thought, as he rolled on his side to the window. The burning had gone down, thankfully – not completely, but it was bearable now as he didn’t have to flinch when people touched it. A part of him considered if maybe Tatysumia would help him, but another part felt irritated that Wada would even think that they would help him: some sort of monster that no one even cared about. His hands gripped the sheets as he tried to think of something else, anything. He really wanted to make some excuse that he was busy, or accidentally do something that caused them to postpone their visit to the castle. But Wadanohara was persistent, he knew that very well already.

Fukami loved that about her, though.

He just wanted to tell her how he felt inside. Wadanohara was the only one to make him feel complete, but Samekichi… That shark had stolen her heart... No. He was always in her mind even before the two had met. Even though he was in the red sea, she still cared about him, constantly smiling and reassuring to everyone he was coming back, when really he could tell it was for her sake more than anyone else's. At first, when the shark had left, he thought she would finally get over him and pay attention to him for once, but seeing her suffer was not worth it. It never was. But what was he supposed to do? It wasn’t fair of him to even think this way, yet it would be on his mind constantly. He wanted to steal her away, but he didn’t want to make her upset. She was his everything, his life, his purpose. Without her, he was lost... and now that this stupid curse was taking its course, he felt bitter that the only reason she paid any attention was because he was suffering.

He’d never tell her. She can’t know how he feels. If he did, it would ruin everything. Either she would laugh at him as if it was a joke, or she would slap him and be shocked he would even think that she was okay after Samekichi had left. It was better to suffer in silence than to break her heart further by making her choose what she really wanted.

“Fukami, breakfast is ready!”

He would protect her no matter what...

Shaking his head, he stood up and sorted his coat out only to feel sick inside. He coughed harshly into his hand, his world spinning for a few seconds... and then he realised he was coughing up blood. Black blood.

“Come on, I’m gonna eat your food if you don’t come!” Memoca shouted up the stairs.

Fukami tried to keep calm, quickly wiping the blood off. “I’m coming, hang on.”

10 (30?) Questions Writing Game

Hey, y'all. I've been meaning to do this for a hot minute now. Ever since I got tagged by our lovely @faireladypenumbra. So without further ado, lets get started.

1. What do you hope to communicate to your audience with your WIP?

Find the people who appreciate you for you. Even the best of us have hard times. Finally, even if you've had a really shitty past, or are currently in a shitty situation, you can still be the hero of your own story and possibly to someone else too. ^.^

2. What do you find the hardest to write? (Ex: emotion, humor, seduction, etc...)

Anything fast paced is notoriously difficult for me to write. Humor, wit, action, any of those things that live in the fast lane, and are usually just a one-two punch, are horrendous labor. They take forever to write (I'm sure there's some kind of irony in that statement). I love for my audience to be able to savor the moment and live vicariously through my characters, so fast paced moments always feel well, rushed and forced to me. It takes at least 4 drafts of the scene for me to feel alright about it.

3. How bad do you feel your first draft was/is?

Oh, my, holey spacerocks batman, was it awful. POV breaks, spelling errors (their mostly. I before E my ASS. My peeps, beware of the grammar fuckery, it abounds everywhere.), wrong verb usage, and just all around plot and flow shittiness. I kept some of it, but 2/3 got hit in the face with a rusty crowbar, shoved right up in the payload area of a rocket, and blasted off into the sun.

4. What is your favorite genre to read? Write?

Fantasy. To both. All the fantasy. Gimme.

5. Who have you based your style of writing off of?

Honestly, I'd like to think that I've picked up bits and pieces from a multitude of various authors' style and garishly sewed it all together to fashion my own personal brand of magnificent monstrosity. However if you forced me to narrow it down to three specific authors, I'd have to say... Edgar Allen Poe, Jane Austen, and Angie Sage.

6. What made you want to publish your work?

I ran out of books on my bookshelf, and I'd read the ones I had to the point I could almost recite them by rote. While I was writing my first story, I thought that my problem could be someone else problem too, and it was selfish of me to hoard these stories I kept on inventing to myself when someine out there might like them. So, I decided to share.

7. What have you had to research the most for your WIP?

How to write. Due to my upbringing's effect on my mental health, and the fact that I'm a high school drop out deciding to get together and tag team my self confidence into the nearest portapotty and flip it down a hill, I'm incredibly hypercritical of my own abilities. Therefore, I acknowledge that I lack the ability to judge my own work properly and rely heavily upon research, beta readers, and critique partner feedback to appropriately improve and turn out a quality product.

8. What character do you like (that you've written) the least?

Hmmm...... Merlin. He's a douchenozzle in a saint's disguise. If he were real, I'd have to punch him. Repeatedly. In the face.

9. Are you basing any of your WIP off your life and what would it be ( if not to spoiler - ex: people, places, situations)?

Finally, an easy question! Yes and no. Every author draws inspiration from life, but as far as specific instances or anything of that nature? No.

10. Who would you dedicate you book to?

My mom, my daughter, my fiancee, and my critique partner. Without them, the book would've never happened, for whatever reason.

11. If you could steal one idea from a famous author, what would it be?

I dunno. Honestly, even if I were able to do that morally, what would I possibly DO with it? I think the reason some stories are timeless is, in part, due to the author. They've poured their heart and soul into their work, breathing a life into it that could've only been so perfectly captured by them. Even if I took the idea, it wouldnt turn out the same in the end. For example, my Frankenstein would be vastly different from Mary Shelley's, simply because we're two different people with different values, morals, beliefs, and standards. I'm not saying my version would've been bad, per se, but it definitely wouldn't have been Mary Shelley. In ancient times, it was thought that the story (carried by the muses) chose the author, and the author had minimal control over what story they were to write, and I kind of follow that line of thinking.

12. What's been the hardest to write in your WIP so far? (Ex: beginnings, middles, ends, etc.)

Beginnings are the bane of my existence. Like I said before, I'm hypercritical of my abilities, so during the beginning of a story (before I get into the flow of things) I spend a ludicrous amount of time going over, and over, and over, and over my starts. On the plus side though, by the time I'm somewhat satisfied by the "first draft" of my beginning, the rest seems to fly by in comparison. Just gotta get over that initial hump. 😉😜

13. Which characters in your WIP get along the worst? The best?

I'd have to say Merek and Rowan, as the worst. As the best.... Cassandra and Nimue.

14. Tea, coffee, water, or nothing when working?

Tea, mostly. Tea is life. Followed by Redbull and Pepsi. I rarely drink coffee.

15. Is your desk organized or messy?

*eyes a particularly large stack of objects suspiciously.* Hang on a sec. *sweeps the uppermost of the stacks onto the floor with both arms.* Amazeballs! I actually have a desk! How long has that been there?!

16. Can you summarize your favorite piece of writing (that you've created)?

Orphaned girl gets captured by strange creatures and thrown into a world not her own, where she's informed she will finds out that not only is she NOT an orphan, but she will have to fight one of her parents to the death for the fate of the multiverse.

17. How long have you been working on your current WIP?

About a year and a half? Ish. It will, hopefully soon, be my first published novel. 😸😸😸😸

18. Sum up your main characters in three words. (Sorry, not a question)

Nimue- Troubled, stubborn, curious

19. What time of day are you most productive?

1 bloody a.m., when I'm trying to sleep.

20. What's your favorite fictional place?

Neverland. Because Alliteration. Magnificent Murderous Mermaids....

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😄

21. What book inspired you to write the most?

Probs a toss up between T.A. Barron's The Lost Years of Merlin series, Tamora Pierce's The Circle Opens series, and Cecelia Dart-Thornton's The Bitterbynde series. I love all of them.

22. Do you write by hand, type, or some combination of the two?

Both. I prefer to type because it's far easier on my hands and joints, but writing by hand seems to improve my productivity. Not that I have the option of typing atm... My fan quit on my laptop and I can't afford the replacement part for it. 😭😭😭😭 why, wiritng gods, WHY?!

23. A book you would recommend to anyone?

Well, unfortunately, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all book. Books are usually targeted towards a specific audience, and will tend to go over better with that audience, than with those aren't part of that particular grouping. A book recommendation is a highly personalized experience based on a variety of factors such as; age, gender, orientation, beliefs, and morality.

29. What is the one thing you NEED while writing, that isn't necessarily a writing tool?

Scully, my skull shaped pillow, a warm blanket, and music. 😆 I know you said one thing. I lumped them all together under the comfort umbrella. Comfortability is a major factor in my productivity levels. If I'm in pain, those levels drop, sharply.

25. How much time do you spend writing?

Ideally? When I'm not in the midst of a pain flare up, 30hrs a week is pretty typical.

If I'm in the middle of a flare up? 10 to 15hrs per week. I hate myself for it all the time.

26. How much time do you wish you spent writing?

Again, ideally, I would wish to spend about 8hrs a day, 5x a week on writing. This would leave the weekends open for time with my loved ones.

27. Do you set writing goals? If so, what is your writing goal for this year?

Oh boy. I set myself some unrealistic goals. They are as follows;

- Finish writing my horror short story, edit, and publish it.

- Finish editing my novel 'Something Wicked'

- Send out ARC copies of my novel

- Set a solid publishing time table and sales goal for my novel.

28. What's you favorite POV to write in?

Limited third person will always be my go to.

29. How may WIPs do you currently have?

One short story, two novels.

30. What is your favorite thing about writing?

Watching the world, that had previously only been a seed in my imagination, bloom into it's multi-tiered glory.

And so concludes the 30 questions game! Thank you again, to @faireladypenumbra for the tag. Sorry it took me so long to get around to. Also, in return, I'm tagging @alisonhaines and @alittleredfinch. I hope y'all enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed answering the questions. ^.^ Hope y'all have a lovely day.

The Struggle

This would be prefaced with several breathtaking photos of Yamanashi (my town) that I hypothetically would have taken if both my phone and camera weren’t broken. 

I’m really busy so this blog is not going to be very exciting for a while, and also will remain photo-less until I can make it to tokyo to find a camera shop.

Wednesday, however, I did go to a huge fireworks festival in my town. The fireworks were all timed to music. Again, no photos sorry.

And I had my first day of classes today. I spent all Thursday decorating what I like to call “The Mystery Box”, which is a cardboard box of prizes the kids can get if they get enough stickers on their point cards. I spent 5 or 6 hours on it since I literally had no work to do Thursday except prepping. And I can’t leave until 4:30. I meticulously cut out different words and shapes and question marks. It’s like...my pride and joy. I will take photos eventually.

Intro classes went pretty well. I taught 7th graders today. I gave them a short presentation about Kentucky (like state bird is cardinal, state flower, etc) and then quizzed them to see if they remembered. Then we played a game where we passed a beach ball around and they had to answer questions I had written down where their right hand landed. Like “My name is....” or “I am ___ years old”. Some classes were really quiet and hard to get to participate, and then others were running around the classroom and trying to pry the beach ball out of each others arms. 3/4 classes asked me if I had a boyfriend during the QnA part. 

After classes I helped them with “touban” which is when they split up by classes and clean the school. I helped one of the 7th grade classes clean a hallway, and they explained to me in mixed english/japanese how to do everything.

Then I walked around to look at the band playing their instruments. They were really cute and excited to talk to me in broken english about their instruments. Especially 3 girls who play the euphonium. 

There’s going to be a school festival soon, where all the clubs will display what theyve been doing over the school year. Hopefully I’ll have a camera by then. It’s in about two weeks I think.

Okay, the rest of this post is just going to be me complaining about being an adult so feel free to stop reading here.

This is all gonna be just boring complaints, sorry.

So I think my biggest issue with daily life right now is that I’m being buried alive in trash right now, and I can’t get rid of it because taking out trash in this city is more complicated than learning calculus. 

CONVOLUTED EXPLANATION (for those who are curious):

So first, there are certain items that you take to a recycle station and separate: glass bottles, aluminum cans, plastic egg cartons, plastic trays, plastic bottles, plastic bottle caps, and milk/juice cartons. Then, there is another place where you put cardboard boxes, but first you have to cut them up into equal pieces and tie them up with twine two ways (like christmas presents). There is also another place for you to put newspapers and magazines, which you stack and tie just like cardboard boxes. Then there are two other categories--mixed plastics/others and mixed paper (I learned that toilet paper and tissue counts as burnables but printer paper, etc gets recycled)--which I have to take to a separate location (which I haven’t actually been to yet). These have to go out every wednesday or saturday morning before 8:30 am (and you can’t leave them out the night before, you have to go in the morning). And then lastly there is a category called burnables, which is all the food stuffs, tissue paper, etc. That goes outside the apartment every Tuesday and Friday before 8:30 am. 

Currently I have 5 large trash bags full of plastics, wrappers, and giant chunks of Styrofoam which came with some furniture I ordered on amazon. Then I have two piles of enormous cardboard boxes that I have yet to cut down. And a full bag of burnables. And a full bag of mixed papers.

I don’t have a car yet, so the only thing I have to transport these is my bike, which is like.....impossible. And I hate asking for help so I’ve basically just been sitting here in shame for two weeks. 

I’ve been talking to a previous jet who might sell me here car, but somethings wrong with the shocks, she says, and it has yet to get inspected (required in japan) which will cost money. 

I also have about 5 days to figure out how to pay my rent at an atm that has no english, but a coworker has offered to take me so thats figured out at least. 

I have no phone, so no way to find my way around. And no way to contact people when I’m out of the house.

And the new phone I ordered arrived at my apartment before I got here so it’s floating around some nearby post office probably. 

It seems like all petty complaints, but every time I need to get a package I have to struggle through a japanese over the phone conversation, then look up how to get there on google maps and try to memorize it because i have no phone, and then try to find it on my bike in the heat and also find a time to do it when I’m not working. 

Also a friend is having me look after her bird, which honestly i can’t look after myself so I’m worried about. And I’ve had to keep my air conditioner running constantly, which is going to run up the bill.

But I think my biggest struggle so far has just been loneliness and isolation. My coworkers are very nice, but we’re not exactly friends yet. The other alt’s live far enough away that its not convenient to get to them, and while I’ve chatted with and become casually aquainted with most of them, I haven’t really become great friends with any of them. And most of them already have a person/people they talk to mostly. And the JET’s who were already here previously have already formed their friendships and its kind of hard to weasel my way in. 

I keep thinking, despite myself, of all the things I would be doing if I were back home, like lounging in my bed not worrying about things, or watching tv shows with my family, or hanging out with my friends. 

I’ve been trying to stay positive and for the most part I’m happy since my job is pretty rewarding, but in the evenings its just me and I wish I had someone to talk to.

I’m sure I’ll become better friends with some of the people here as time goes on, but for now its a struggle. 

Tomorrow there’s a huge fire festival at the base of Mt. Fuji that marks the closing of Mt. Fuji. It doesn’t actually close until September 11th, but I won’t have time to climb it this year. So I guess I’ll be doing that next year. 

I’m really sad because I have absolutely nothing to take pictures with. Also I haven’t been able to find someone to get a ride from and I have no phone so I’ll have to just wing it as far as finding the location, and it’s more than an hour away. 

It seems like just about everything I try to do here is extremely stressful. Just finding my way around. 

Not to mention cooking for myself all the time. 

Sorry for an extremely boring post. It’s probably going to be like this for a while, until I settle in and start doing things (and have a camera). 

[reggies-rambles]

13th of September

Uni is busy and weather is still cruddy (though there were <i>some</i> nice days). Reggle is doing pretty good though. Haven’t ridden as much as I am wanting too, but end of semester is coming up soon so I’ll have more time to get him trucking then. For now, gotta get that study done and get that 80% average boiiii

Anyway, Reggie’s figured out haunches in/traverse all of a sudden. Not perfect, but its there. Really this shouldn’t surprise me cause he did the same thing when teaching it in-hand. Just wasn’t getting it, wasn’t getting it, wasn’t getting it, oh wait I get it. He’s interesting in that respect. I’ve been playing with it undersaddle a little bit and he definitely finds the right rein easier than the left. On the right, its a little harder to keep the correct bend, but as his hinds strength up that should disappear. He gets the concept and that’s all I care about for the moment. In fact, this is becoming his ‘go to thing’ when he gets confused with laterals lol Couple times when leg yielding he’d pop into traverse because he thought it was easier lol Hopefully that means teaching half-pass will not be too much of a struggle. 

I think the overall quality of his gaits have improved too. Walk is certainly better and I think the trot is coming along too. I haven’t done much/anything with the ‘fancy’ lengthen trot, I think he might be a little sore through his shoulder, but the overall quality of the gait feels better. I think anyway. Since I usually ride on my own I don’t have any video to compare with atm. Should en-devour to get some, but its probably better to learn off feel anyway. He’s certainly working up into the bridle more and doesn’t get so low anymore, so I’m taking that as improvement. 

Canter is getting better too, but going is slow. I try not to spend too much time on it cause he’s young, but canter is soemthing we are going to need in the future. Its more just corners and circles that are bleh. Like they can be done, but its not as pretty as I want it to be. Just typical young horse motorbiking stuff. Left lead has gotten heaps better than the first attempt, can usually manage at least one half-decent transition and he’s beginning to pick his shoulder up and bend. Right lead is very hit and miss. When he gets it right, its better than the left lead, but its much harder to get to that point. I think its mainly just a case of more miles and chipping away at it slowly. He just needs a lot of support and hand-holding atm, which is easier said than done when he’s leaning into the circle and you’re trying to sit straight lol. I did have to get after him a little bit with the whip today cause he started messing around in the transition and just running through my seat+legs, so he had bit of a buck and carry on about that but then afterwards he was much better. I think the buck was more of a ‘need to get my legs in order’ over anything else. He is a delicate petal, so a touch with the stick often gives a big response lol 

Overall he’s much more relaxed about the canter though. He doesn’t run when you bring him back to trot or get too uptight once you go sitting trot after canter. Still a little bit of wiggling, but if you just stay with him he settles right back down again. Like you can actually ask for more forward and he’ll give it rather than hollowing out, rushing and getting a little panicky. I think doing stretchy circles after canter helps with that, or at least continuing a little trot work before bringing him back to a walk/halt. Downwards transitions in general have improved heaps, not so much jolting to a stop, he is actually carrying the energy through a bit. Unless I forget and say ‘woah’ but that’s my fault :p Never hurts to have an emergency break lol. V had me take a big breath in and then out when going down a gait, and Reggie has actually picked up on it. The things they pay attention too is kinda amazing when you think about it. Needless to say, downwards transitions are actually not too horrible anymore, even my accidental canter-walk ones lol Upwards transistions are hit and miss. Like trot to canter is just no, walk to trot can be good and halt to walk are usually alright. Taking up a little extra contact has helped with this some as well as having in-front of the leg more, so I’m not having to ‘do’ as much to get a nicer transition than weeks previous, so I suppose that is good too.

Am looking forward to the warmer weather, I am a tiny bit sick of riding in the rain (though today was alright actually) and trekking through mud. Reggie has gotten a little spot of mud fever on his hinds which is annoying and his neck rug has rubbed out part of his mane ;-; Hopefully it will grow back soon, but that missing spot is making my running braids look very funny. His mane is so long it gets in the way when I ride, so I braid it to keep it out of the way, but because of that missing bit, I can’t braid the entire way down his neck and instead end up doing one ‘normal’ braid and then one ‘microbraid’ to get the rest of it out of the way. It does look pretty funny lol Anyway, nothing that can fix that but time.

Ep. 1 - “I am THE Survivor Chick And I Am Here To Win It All!!” - Susan

Franco

hehe

Maxyne

I AM FREAKING THE FUCK OUT!!!!! I don't know why I am, it's just another Survivor game but... I have be someone else kind of. So for this game I have to be "Maxyne" and I'm keeping my pronoun flexibility but I'm gonna be pushing the feminine side a bit more. Maxyne is actually my irl sister's middle name so it'll be easy for me to quickly become familiar with that name being used for me. I also know that Tim is gonna be in this game but idk who and I sure as hell don't wanna find out. Tim actually told me to apply cause they said that they were applying to but my dumbass did NOT know this was an alias game so now I'm fumbling around in the dark trying get into costume n shit not knowing what to do or what to expect. The only thing I have to cling onto my knowledge of Survivor ORGs and Jay's style of hosting. Which honestly don't do me well cause I haven't played Survivor in... months and I haven't been tuned into a Jay game in months too so I have no idea the ride I'm in for. One thing I did do is scroll through the rules, cause my experience always tells me that whenever there's a tumblr blog for an ORG, there's always something hidden somewhere there. Lo and behold, I was right so come 9 PM tonight I will be camping on the rules page updating and waiting for a clue, or someway to start my search. Cause every Survivor game i've played, the idol is found in less then 5 minutes and by the way I've formulated a thought about the idol, it's already long gone. So hopefully, I can pull a Merida and change my fate. Also there was a mention of One World rounds happening in this game??? UMMMM WTF??? PLEASE LET THAT BE A ONE TIME THING. Anyways, sorry for the word vomit, I usually have a lot of pre game jitters and thoughts so I figured I'd get a jump on my confessional count and start talking now. Let's hope I can pull through for this game and make it far. Or vote me out first, i'd rather not have responsibilities right now. 

Rain

I’m looking forward to this. I’m looking forward to people not remembering who I am. I’ve been out of this a year now, I’m well and ready to get first boot, but I’m curious to see how a better, matured me will play. Probably badly, let’s be fuckin real. Anyway I’ll check back in toward the middle of this round. We’ll see how all my sockpuppet counterparts compare against my impossible standards.

Maxyne

5 minutes before the game starts and mama we. Are. SCARED.

Elle

This time around I am going to go for a peppy, happy-go-lucky girl. Not all of my tribe mates are online atm which majorly sucks! Plus, not everyone has me added. I am going to wait till people add me before I add them. I'll give it the night into the morning for that to happen. Otherwise, I'll slowly add them one-by-one. I want to do the slide puzzles because I know I am good at them. I'm going for a more hands-off approach when it comes to socializing so I need all the time I can get to set myself up in the tribe. If we can win the challenge then it'll be a great opportunity to really bond with my tribe mates. 

Maxyne, Fae, and Erick seem to be the most active atm with Fae being the most social. I'll observe how far that socializing and activity goes on. It can either work to my benefit or I need to get rid of the ASAP.

Frank

Wanna start by saying that having a round button in this form is the smartest thing I’ve ever seen. Now onto my confessional: this tribe is alright, some people haven’t spoken yet I think and people seem nice and cooperative thus far. I’m so nosy so not knowing who everyone is is going to be a struggle for me. But I’m guessing Maynor is Gregg on the other tribe bc of the Sophie icon, but watch me be wrong. I’ll try to keep confessionals interesting, but then again I lie sometimes so womp. 

Worm

So I am an hour into my first alias game and I’m already stressing the fuck out. I am so used to being able to go on call with people and get to know them. I wanna say one of my greatest strength is getting solid reads on people when I talk to them but that is only when I can go on call with them. This whole thing is gonna be a struggle

Fae

well we are an hour into this game and I have already fucked up my story. Guess I'm moving home now because I didn't think anything through. dear god. Why am I like this? guess moving my grandmother is going to turn into Me moving home lol. welp, lets see how this goes. 

Maxyne

*googles How to stop oversharing*

Michele

Franco is a king we stan. Also I’m still laughing at worms name

Rain

Michele: Chosen one, will betray at f5

Susan: OTTN5 

Worm: oh, worm? 

Gregg: Dylan in disguise, watch me betray him again 

Uhhh I’ll be back with the rest eventually first night is horrid

Idol hunt: OTTNNNNNNN10

Dusty

So far im feeling good on my tribe! I'm getting along really well with Erick! We have a lot in common and match each others energy. I'm also talking well with Fae, who says they think we've played a game together!! So I'm trying to figure out who it might be! I'm a little worried about the people who haven't spoken yet, but hopefully I'll be able to get to know them!

Elle

I think I'm connecting well with Maxyne. Since we are both doing the same assignment, it allows for me to grow closer with them. I think I might make them my ride-or-die, but I want to see how well our connection lasts in the days to come. Van and I are making great conversation in the tribe chat. I hope they will want to work with me. Other than that, I have not chatted with anyone else on the tribe. The people who have contacted me I talk to sporadically. I hope this is enough to get me by as I do not want to be seen as a social threat later down the line. Also, like, why did so many people get a disadvantage? I am so disappointed in all of them, but I know we can pull through!

lenny

off to an interesting start! so far, I am enjoying my tribe. definitely more chill than my last one but only time will tell. people's true motives will come out soon and this time, I am trying to really pay attention to who is a leader and who is a follower.

Franco

Nera tribe has such good positive energies? There hasn't been any friction, everyone is joking with each other, and overall everyone is having a great time!! Very honestly though I'm not sure what to make of everyone in a game and strategic sense. I've tried talking game with the majority of the tribe but most of it was still just like small talk and vague sentences. Im tryna play this fast and hard but I don't think anyone else is ):   I vibe really well with Michele, Eliza, and Rain. Michele and Rain are so fun and probably down to get messy, so they'd be great allies. And eliza just seems like a genuinely good person that I think I would get along with really nicely!! I also REALLY want this reward challenge. Ive gotten three people at least who said that they would vote for me so!! Let's hope I win, at the very least itd be nice to prove to myself that I can have a good social game early on

Franco

On my very FIRST idol hunt of the SEASON I find?? A legacy advantage??? Im so??? Shook and excited. I just have a feeling that this is my game! Night 1 kinda sets the tone of the whole game and I had an AMAZING night 1. I also uhhh am dumb and told Michele that i found it. My goal was to gain her trust so we could work together but? She kinda just didn't respond and changed the topic. Idk if that's a good sign so yikes!!

Elle

Honestly, I should resign myself to the fate that we will not win the next challenge. So, it is imperative that we win this challenge so that we do not go to tribal two times in a row. I hope my score of 85 is enough because I could not get it any higher than that. I am honestly very frustrated with my tribe at the moment, but I guess we shall see how things develop. Maxyne and Erick getting the advantage is interesting only because it shows who has been the most social. I will either need to get in good with the both of them or take them out early. However, the most active and social people usually do not go home first. For now, I will just keep my eye on the two of them and see how they position themselves. 

Elle

Erick giving the tribe the clue was definitely a strategic move. He wants to build trust and be transparent with everyone in order for them to like him. I see right through it. However, it is nice to get an edge on the hunt. 

Fae

I FOUND THE IDOL!!!! Erick decided to share the clue and I FOUND IT!!!! 

Eliza

dear m’fucking diary...

Hey gays, this is a crack fest. I’m doing this confession rn so that I don’t have to do that fever dream of a puzzle. I got a bat to the face when I did the idol hunt, funnnnn. So, let’s recap! I’ve been connecting with a lot of people so far and that’s great, I love my tribe rn and I’m happy that Franco won the reward considering that I voted for them, so now I can at least get on Franco’s good side an maybe get some info👀. Because this is alias I probably will be playing a tad bit differently but I’m still going to be the social playing badass that y’all know and love! The worst part of this so far is that I can’t fucking say y’all, who the hell says y o u g u y s. I’m changing how I speak just a bit so that I don’t immediately get clocked, so basically I can’t use y’all and lmao in every sentence. The people I feel closest to right now are Franco, Michelle, tristin, rain, and worm. In that order, don’t get me wrong, I love everyone in the tribe, those are just the people I’ve been able to connect with the most. I’d love to move forward with that group but if that doesn’t happen well then whatever, I mean I talk to literally everyone so I’ll survive. Pretending to be interested romantically in men (sorry James Zachary) is horrible, but I think people are at least believing that I’m 20. Jay told me that all I have to do to be an adult is be excited about stupid boring shit, so I’m just gonna pretend that I’m happy about buying a new couch. Well I’ll check back in soon to update y’all about people and probably give an analysis about everyone.  That’s it, much loveeeee

Fae

I just want to say how ironic it is that I decided to do the idol hunt in the challenge and in reality actually found an idol 

Gregg

Well. Im already overwhelmed and literally wanted out. (Jay knows why) But im doing counting challenge and i hope another f4 counting challenge doesnt affect my perfermance for this one. I really want to help the tribe win. Honestly im not gunna bother trying to figure out who is who. Im just gunna play and think the people are the people and play normally. Trying to guess ppl is what gunna mess me up. So wont bother with it but some phrase some ppl have said. I feel like i know who they r.

Franco

I WON FIRST REWARD AHHH. I'm such a social legend? Look at me? I'm literally winning this game. I kinda don't care about the clue because I already have a legacy advantage, AND half of a super idol (that I gotta give to somebody else, booooo), so I'm kinda??? Being chaotic and giving the clue to everyone who voted for me. It can give me an opportunity to gain more trust on the tribe

Tristin

https://youtu.be/Wyi5uWAulnE

Maxyne

I know this is late and it's long but i fell asleep last night while this was uploading, so sorry https://youtu.be/mXmbL49orVI

Elle

Now that I have gotten to talk to everyone I can finally assess my tribe. I feel like I can be great allies with Maxyne. They voted for me in the reward which means we have a mutual good vibe from each other. Hopefully I can make them my ride-or-die. Fae and Van are really nice and I can get down with them. I think if I could choose a strong alliance of three I would pick them while having Maxyne as my real ride-or-die. Sasha seems to be the least social with me which means that they could be an easy target. I don't trust Erick or Cran because they just give me bad vibes. I do not think anything of Frank. They are probably with Sasha as one of the least social in the tribe. At least Sasha is being active within the tribe chat. Finally, I think Dusty is a sweetheart and could possibly be another one of my allies. At the very least, I know I was strong in the challenge and have at least been moderately social. This means I will not be the first boot if we were to go to tribal. 

Dusty

So now we've got an alliance in the works between me, Fae, Erick, and Elle. All in the name of working together to find the idol. I feel good about the group! Me and Erick are both each others closest ally. He won the reward challenge and in doing so he was able to will be half of a super idol! We don't know where the other half might be, but I'm really happy to see that Erick trusted me enough to will me a super idol!

van

So uh...I haven’t been super active because the world is burning around us. But I’m trying. So far I really enjoy the people I’m playing with!

Elle

Dusty asking me to work with Fae and Erick on finding the idol which works out well for me. This means I have already positioned myself into a sort of alliance which I hope will carry me in the future. 

Elle

Fae confirmed with me the alliance that Dusty approached me with. However, there was no chat made. Also, Cranjes was added to the alliance by Erick and Fae which tells me that those those two are very social with him. These people are making their connections to obvious. Either way, with those people I have a 5-person majority. Hopefully these people will carry me through the pre-swap phase of the game, but I am getting pretty nervous in my seat. I do not trust Erick and Cranjes. I like Dusty and Fae, but I cannot get a read on the other two. Plus, if no chat has been made, how are we going to solidify the alliance? Hopefully my performance in the challenge will cover me for now, but I am getting pretty nervous at the moment.

Michele

elfranchele just started! it's an alliance chat with michele, franco, and eliza. excited to see where this goes!!

I can't tell if Susan is just super into her alias or if she really is old with her hubs

Cranjes

everyone seems nice. i guess. idk. i fell off a waterfall and fucked up my ankle for a fucking idol. but if anyone asks, it was sasha. 

i have something against the name sasha bc peppermint should’ve won season 9 of drag race, not sasha velour

Fae

Soooo, there is now a chat for people to hell each other look for the idol. The idol I have...

Frank

YESSSSSSS!!! I’m not gonna be first boot. It’s a party even though I didn’t win my section. Eliza didn’t do their part on the other tribe and that’s a yikes (at least with a 2 hour time exactly that’s what I’m assuming). So like they’re probably going. I’m really happy I don’t have to worry about tribal tomorrow because my sister wants to drink and celebrate her birthday since plans went sour because of that quarantine life. But gamewise though, I want to talk to Erick tomorrow since they seem like someone I could work with, although based on reward I think multiple people think that. Gonna remember that. Gotta be social....but I’m me so it’ll be an uphill battle.

Rain

So, we lost immunity. 

I could have seen that coming - but at least we weren’t totally destroyed. I’m already thinking Susan as a name but uhhh we’ll see where it goes. I’m pretty good with Franco, Michele and Eliza. I wouldn’t be shook if there was an alliance chat made at some point. I like Tristan too! And Gregg. And Lenny. ....okay I like everyone but Susan. Susan I’m sorry I respect your character choice but it ain’t it, chief. 

Gregg

I feel like i might be good for this tribal. Only one name has been said which kinda worries me but im trying to stay positive. Susan is the target tonight and as long as it isnt me. Im okay with voting for whoever. Franco did share the clue with me. It was a simple clue so idk if itll be helpful or not. Im looking at a certain spot and doing all the 4 spots in the section. So hopefully i can find something.

erick

hi i have the eco fascist dream flu and i cannot move but cranjes is john and fae is birch confirmed, i fucked up the challenge but not to the extent that we lost so that’s nice. current alliance going with fae, elle, and dusty (dusty’s my fave). they elected to give me the idol clue and i got half of the super idol so i gave that to dusty as was required and then shared the clue with the group at large because i’m a communist

Worm

So we lost the first immunity challenge. It sucks but I'll get over it. The thing that worries me now is trying to get a read on everyone during the vote. Because I don't know who I'm playing with I'm struggling on getting a read on anyone. On the bright side though I think I'm doing pretty well socially. I've talked to Michele and Tristin and they seem to trust me so I'm happy about that. Also it seems like the tribe has come to a unanimous vote to getting rid of Susan. I feel bad about getting her out but she is firmly holding on to her character which I think is making it difficult for her to make connections with other people in the tribe. The only that has me worried about this whole thing is how easy this vote is going. My anxious head just wonders about how people behind the scenes could be plotting to get me out and I just don't know it. This also isn't helped by the reward challenge and Franco receiving 5 votes to get the clue. A couple votes wouldn't have made me suspicious but 5 just seems like a lot. Maybe I'm reading too much into it but all my anxiety is saying is that there is a majority alliance already formed in the first couple hours of the game and now I'm just playing from the bottom. Hopefully that isn't true but only time will tell.

Susan Burke

I Am SO SO Excited To Be Here!! I am THE Survivor Chick And I Am Here To Win It All!! Everyone So Far Has Been So Kind. I Love These Kids!! However, I Know My Age Will Make Me A Target. They Don't Believe This Ol' Hiney Can Keep Up With Them!! So, I Wanted To Make It Clear That I Am LOYAL To This Tribe And Its People!! When I Was Out Looking For The Idol, I Stumbled Upon The Other Tribe's Camp!! How AWKWARD!! I Decided To Tell Franco - He's Popular, And The First One To Really See SUSAN For SUSAN. Hopefully I Can Buy His Trust, Because He Can Keep This Nanna Safe!! It's Really Unfortunate We Lost...But It Was So Close!! We Won't Lose Again!! I Was Instantly Worried It Would Be Me, But Doing The Challenge With Tristin Bonded Us!! Together, We Decided That Gregg Would Be Our Target, And Now We Gotta Get Everyone ONBOARD!! #TeamSDB

Franco

Im very very sad we have to go to tribal. Like i genuinely enjoy everyone on the tribe!! But it's the way the game goes, every time someone leaves it gets me one place closer to winning hehe. I now have an official alliance with Michele and Eliza and??? We are going to SLAY this game. We all have our individual strengths and I think we could be a powerhouse. Unless Susan has an idol, shes going tonight. Its sad because shes so fun but im not surprised. Everyone else on the tribe seems to have some sort of personal stake or investment in the game besides her. 

Elle

Having immunity means that I can safely bond with my tribemates without the game hovering over our heads. I'm really vibing with everyone in the tribe chat. However, I do not want to go into PMs unless they want to talk to me because it is such a Raffy thing to do to talk to people in PMs. I will try to be as social as possible in the tribe chat to still have those bonds, but I do not want to be seen as some sort of social butterfly.

Tristin

So we LOST the challenge and that sucks!! It appears that the majority of people want to vote out SUSAN and I hate it!! She’s super sweet and the older players always get voted out first! Maybe because she hasn’t been as social as everyone else! At least thats the explanation. I pretty much solidified working with Worm, Franco, and Eliza pretty much. Michele as well I think! But separately of course! I can’t wait for an alliance chat! Sorry to this Susan!!

Sasha

It's strange to be playing in a game where I know there's people playing that I already know but I have no idea who they are. I've talked a little bit to each but not a ton. I don't have too many guesses as to who is who, though. That's it.

[survivorinternational]

Episode 8 - "You got outwitted and outplayed, and soon... you will be outlasted." - Michael

HAHAHAHAHA omg I didn't get voted out and I still have an idol this is awesome! And good on everyone for breaking up that 4 I'm kinda glad Randy is gone but I'm glad I didn't have to be the one to do it. 

Things went odd last round, i think any trust i had in the undersog alliance is gone and vice versa, i think they were playing me and i surprised them with immunity. At least that showed Allan where he stood with them. Now I’m back to putting it all in with the ala mai alliance. To emily, liana, allan, and vilma though, I want them to think of my as a possible flipper. Good god Im a messy player.

That tribal was a fucking mess. No-one was willing to throw out names until the last min which lead to the most stressful, panicked scramble I've ever seen. Originally there was a chance that there were enough votes for Randy. Emily seemed very hesitant to on her OG tribe and Allan wanted to vote elsewhere. About 3 hours before Tribal, Allan suggested the numbers would be there to take out Liana, and after some discussion, the vote seemed to switch onto her. Then, as if noticing he was safe, Randy pushed for a vote onto Jacob. This immediately got everyones back up and caused all the votes to go back onto Randy. It was his own fault he got voted out and frankly... I am glad. The reaction from both Randy and Clash is comical and sad at the same time. Randy seemed to take the vote far to personally and the way he acted after is not in the spirit of the game (calling people ugly and dumb cunts in PMs) Clash saying "no-one told him about a Randy vote" and that everyone lied to him... Im sorry, but this is a game that involved Outwitting... you got Outwitted and outplayed and soon... you will be outlasted. And don't pull that "everyone lied to me" bullshit... You lied to everyone else as well... you even said to me that you "spoken to Jacob to much to vote for him" what happened there huh? All in all, With that tribal out of the way, it seems like we now have a few alliances. The OG Ala Mai (Jacob, Tyler, Stephen and myself), The Trust Cricle (Vilma, Emily and myself), the outsiders (Clash, Pat and Liana) and Allan finding his way. If I can get Allan on board, we should be able to flush out one or 2 idols next vote while still taking out an outsider. GAME ON MOLES!!! 

i bid all my money on one item and it ended up being nothing i guess that’s what i get 

Final 10 baby. I've been trying to lay low, talk to people and make a minimal presence, but after the Randy vote, and ironically having the most votes out of anyone this season, it's been hard. At this point I've managed to wriggle my way into a position that almost anyone can come talk to me, hopefully I can do some more talking to the likes of Patrick, Allan and Liana. I don't want them to potentially be on the jury thinking that I don't want to talk to them at all.

----------

Received votes at 3/3 tribals, and if Liana's group targets me again, and flips Emily/Vilma, I'll be a goner. I tested the waters with Michael, Clash and Stephen about voting Emily, Michael wasn't down so I pulled back instantly, I'm now hoping that that didn't make a lasting impression and I can get the vote onto Patrick again. If I can get Clash to use his extra vote on Patrick, and get in touch with Vilma/Emily/Allan, I may be safe.

-_- that is all

----------

So things are weird atm. Jacob and co want to vote out Pat, and think Clash is on board with that. Clash is telling me he is lying, and that he is really trying to get me Liana Pat Allan Himself and his extra vote to vote out Emily. Soooo Idk what to do. On one hand Emily is a strong player, on the other hand Clash is A Mess(tm). However Clash thinks we’re tight. It boils down to who i want to piss off, Emily and co. who arent really working with me, and by extension the rest of og ala mai. Or, Clash and co. who are a little less together, but maybe thats better in the long run? 

so apparently jacob has doubted my loyalty and is coming for me. fat fucking chance you arrogant moron. i saved you the past two round and now i’m going to be the reason you go home! like literally! do not fucking cross me it will not be pretty! :) he has made me mad beyond belief so a blindside WILL be coming honey. it will be.

----------

not little miss emily heading a big blindside against jacob and the ala mai boys? yee freaking haw! i think this will literally work. we should have like six or seven votes on jacob if my plan works out how i want it to :)

Hi, yay randy went home he wasn’t my favourite. Now pats the target and we’re having a hoot of a time

What is even happening. I cant keep up with this game and I'm so frustrated with being played by everyone all the time.

I feel bad I didn't have time to explain the last round properly, but all I'm gonna say is it was quite messy and I changed my mind a couple times. Ultimately Em got put off by Randy's unwillingness to vote Liana and he threw my name out so we felt more comfortable voting him out instead of Liana. Moving on to this round: I'm p sure the og Ala Mai bois have an alliance I just hope Michael doesn't leak everything to them I'm trying to be as open as possible with both Emily and Michael so they would trust me 100% I need to be able to trust at least some people's word here Jacob has lowkey been dictating the merge votes so far Seems like he is kinda dictating this one too I think last round going his way gave him confidence to throw names out I'll let him do that in hopes of keeping away from the spotlight But since we're voting out people he's the least connected with, I have to try and remember what would be the ideal moves from my perspective I think getting rid of one of the people who voted in minority is a solid idea for this round Because if we got rid of someone else they would have a solid group of three for next and that's kinda dangerous (and the suspicion of Clash having an idol on top, yikes) But after next vote it might be time to get rid of one of the Ala Mai bois I feel I've done an okay job seeming quite unthreatening lately I don't see why I should get targeted over some more dangerous players My biggest fear is Clash idoling me out because he holds grudges I'm fine staying in the background for now, it's only f10, bigger plays will come in picture later Although it'll be difficult for me to make any with zero advantages in my pocket That's my biggest concern Other people will be able to claim moves as their own because they have advantages they can use And I'm just relying on people using them to help my position And not against me I'm kinda a potential goat at this point But it's too early to worry about that Just trying to keep my name away from people's mouths So I had a good convo with Emily and she really doesn't want to vote against Patrick which I don't blame her for. I personally wouldn't mind one of Clash/Pat going home especially with the possibility of flushing an idol in the process. But on the other hand Jacob has been on a power trip lately and was trying to turn people against Emily earlier. Everyone kinda knows Emily and I are close so it would be an indirect stab at me as well. I'm not a big fan of that kind of thinking. He even made a chat with Emily and I without asking either of us if we wanted to be in one haha that was funny. I think he definitely has a chat with the Ala Mai bois and made the chat with Emily and I in hopes of being able to guide our votes through that one as well. It's not a great look for him, I must say. So Emily and I were toying with the possibility of siding with Patrick/Liana/Allan/possibly Clash and voting Jacob out instead. I'm not exactly sure if it'll happen since people are having trouble responding to me, that makes me think they already have a plan in fruition that I'm not aware of. Or they just trust people will vote Em with them, not sure? Also Clash and Jacob have gotten closer recently, I'm scared Clash wouldn't want to vote Jacob out but I'm not sure. But as far as I know I'm probably voting either Clash/Patrick or Jacob tonight. Let's see how things develop from here. I'm kinda ready to go home though tbh, this game is starting to stress me out. I'm up for a Vilma blindside. 

Once again... This scramble is a mess What should be an easy vote on Pat or Clash has now evolved to people wanting to make moves and others trying to react. Jacob asked me last night to put forward my vote towards Emily which I find extremely strange after she helped save him the last two TCs. I explained that if we vote out Em this TC, Vilma and Allan would turn and Ala Mai will become the target. Emily and Vilma decided that they dont like Jacob talking about this vote and are now trying to rally numbers against Jacob And to top it all off, Clash may have an Idol... ARGH!!!! In my mind, this vote should have been a 4 Pat, 3 Clash and 3 ??? Vote with my using my vote blocker... but now things are everywhere. Hopefully i've done enough to keep my name out of talks 

I want this to be known that IF I go home I knew I couldn’t trust allan and that he or Stephen was leaking everything to Emily and she knew. If there are no Jacob votes I will be impressed but also impissed, and I’ll be mad because that will likely mean I’m going home. I really think they was me out. Little ol me. Super unfair. But I guess we’ll see. And tbh clash is hinesty bae. He’s been super great to work with I like him a lot 

So last round was a mess and I think this one will be too. Let's go back to last TC. Basically Randy was being rude af towards me because I told him I wanted to vote Michael out and because I knew there was a group of people already voting Randy out I decided to take him out too. I honestly feel like I was deciding vote and that move will either make or break my game imo. Now, at the auction, I won the ability to exile myself for 24 hours and miss TC. I was really tempted to use it this round but I figured it would make me an extremely easy vote when I came back because there had already been tension. So I'm holding off until at least next round to use it and the plan right now is to blindside emily using Clash's extra vote. I really hope the plan works but even if it backfires, I think I can take a backseat and let all the drama unfold in front of me. 

i could very much be going home this round BUTTTTTT i am optimistic that it will be JACOB going home instead of me or clash. tldr: jacob wanted to flush an idol of clash’s, that clash may or may not have... he kind of insinuated to me he had it but lmao! jacob’s real plan was to vote pat so i decide to go to pat, clash, and liana with this new plan and tell them what’s up. while they were (rightfully so) upset with me from last round, i think they believed me and are on board to vote for jacob will me, vilma, and allan. and michael is aware of this plan but is voting pat to save face (or idk who he’s voting tbh) anyway i think i have successfully planned a blindside against jacob but also i’m playing so freaking hard at this rate i’m playing for fifth place. no one is going to let me get to the end of the game if i keep going so HARD lmao! i need to calm down next round for real omg

----------

just. a confessional. to say how much i love vilma. i knew we were put in this game together for a reason. i love her

So after Randy going I lost my closest ally but now I am gonna try and get Stephen and Allan back and make them flip on Emily and hopefully Emily goes that will break up Vilma too 

Uhh I don't think voting Jacob is the best move for me But I'm just gonna go with it it's too late to change my mind I'm playing such a weird game I'm playing for 3rd place right now But I just wanna be loyal to Emily and Michael ugh they're so great Last round I didn't feel bad because I was voting for someone who wanted me out anyway But I think Jacob kinda trusts me so I feel bad voting him Plus he is actually really nice But he didn't tell me about the plan to blindside Emily though Even though I guess it was Clash's plan originally I still wish he would've told me I think this flip will backfire on me next round Emily has better ties to the other side I feel so I'm going to be the one struggling more from flipping And we won't even flush any of the idols out I feel sticking with the split would've been much smarter But I don't think Emily would budge, she won't vote Pat this round Oh well It's kinda new to me to be playing this crazy? I won't win but at least I'm trying out something new lol Chaos Vilma... Yay? Nay? Also a bit paranoid someone has told Jacob what's up and they're coming up with a counteractive plan as we speak but. Tbh I'm tired and I just want to sleep. If I get fucked I get fucked and that's okay. I love Emily. 

More worried than ever this tribal, I'm pretty much guaranteed to never catch a break with votes, still not sure why. I'm also going against Clash here which I hate to do, but I'd rather hurt Clash, than hurt all of ala mai.

""Car insurance, from provisional to full uk?""

I have recently bought a car (a 2003 Ford Ka 1.3 Collection) & am on a provisional license taking driving lessons atm. Im looking at different car insurance quotes online & am thinking of going with Admiral as it seems like they offer the cheapest car insurance for my situation. As far as I'm aware, I would have to pay approx 1,100 to insurance my car while still on a provisional license, & approx 1,600 with a full uk. (A lot of ppl have said that insurance will be more expensive while on a provisional license but I know for a FACT that it's the other way around seeing as I would have a fully qualified driver with me at all times, meaning that I'm less likely to have an accident!!) Anyway, Because I'm looking at insuring my car for Nov while I still have a provisional license (I'm going to pay it monthly), when I hopefully pass my test at the start of Dec & obviously notify the insurers that I will have passed my test & therefore gotten a full uk license, HOW ON EARTH will that affect my insurance?

Do you have to report a DUI to the car insurance company?

My friend got a DUI not too long ago. This is the state of Florida, and she has Allstate. I understand that her getting a DUI is now public records because she spent the night in jail. Because the fact that it's public records now, is she required to inform her Allstate insurance company about her DUI? Also, what will happen either way whether she reports it to insurance company or not? Will they remove her from her insurance or jack up the rates? It is her FIRST DUI and other than that she has a good driving record. Thanks.""

What cars are best to have for the lowest insurance?

I am 21, and I am rather sick of catching the bus everywhere lol, especially this past winter. I know my insurance is going to be high, It's also pretty hard to keep a job since many buses stop running around 9pm. My friend told me any time after May is a good time to buy a car because most people already got their refunds. I am willing to take out a loan if a new/newer car is the best to go with since I have pretty decent credit (724 Experian). If I have a car I could work and go to school more easily. What year, make, model, etc. I also want to save on gas. For the new cars, I would like the Chevy Volt, the Ford Fiesta, Honda Civic (hybrid if possible), or the toyota prius (hybrid maybe). For used, I am not sure since I don't know what year to look in, but I was looking at the Honda civic, toyota prius, and the mazda mazda6. I also don't know if foreign cars would raise the premium. I read that if you are getting a car around 10 years old, only buy honda or toyota cars. Also should I look into mechanical breakdown insurance and/or should I get a warranty for the car along with the auto insurance? How much do they cost? Thanks.""

Question about car insurance and ticket?

Today my girlfriend asked me to drive her home from college as she was sick. I used her moms car. When coming home on the arterial we were at a red light and I was getting ready to get in the right lane when the light turned green the SUV in front of me began to go then stopped suddenly, (still don't know why) As I was still crossing into the other lane the corner of my front bumper bumped her fender corner. I noticed she stopped and was on her phone so I backed up and parked behind her assuming she just wanted to make sure it was ok. Her tail lights were fine, she drove Subaru SUV so she had a pretty solid buffer there really wasn't even a scuff but a small red reflector on the bottom of the bumper that received a small crack (got a pic close up but can't see it more than a couple inches away. My headlight just has small scuff we werent worried, in NYS you don't generally call unless the damage is over 1000 but she insisted on calling the police. I kept asking if she'd like to just exchange insurance info but she said no (stubborn middle aged probably for insurance) The cops kept telling her we could just exchange info but she wanted report. Anyways, we sat there for about an hour and eventually just got the accident report and I got a following too closely ticket. Do you know how much something like this would cost in NYS roughly and if it would add points on my license. (Cant have pts for work ) Also how will insurance be affected?""

Does full coverage car insurance cover a car that just dies?

I have full coverage car insurance on my car (for legal/employment reasons), comprehensive, collision, PPI, theft, vandalism, rental, etc. Yeah, its an 99 Accord. What I never asked, and now want to know, is if it just dies (cus its about that time that if it did I wouldnt be surprised) will I get the value of the car? I know I do get its value if it is stolen or totaled or vandalized, but does that apply to car death? Pretty sure if it stopped working the cost to fix it would be more than the car is valued at, does that count as totaling? I am getting to that point where the car may be worth more to me stolen or wrecked. I hate dealerships otherwise I might consider a trade-in, but I don't know why anyone would buy it??? I would feel dishonest selling to anyone else, poor saps. I do better off finding someone who is selling a fixer upper. (I got this car for 500 bucks and I put 70,000 miles on it, not too shabby.) I know a guy who can fix up cars real cheap, but when its time, sometimes there is nothing you can do. The car is Kelly Blue Booked between 2900-4500, so would I get a decent price from insurance if I let it die under full coverage?""

What UK car insurance companies will consider my Canadian driving experience?

I recently exchanged my Canadian driving license for a full UK license but insurance quotes are so high because most companies only consider that I haven't had my full license for more than a year (in fact I have had a full Canadian license for 8 years).

Questions about letter from insurance company?

I got a letter today from my insurance company who insures my homeowner's insurance - it said that they need to do an inspection of my home to see if I am maintaining it properly. I've been here since November 1999 and I've never gotten a letter like this before. But I was with another insurance company for several years - but I've been with this one for about 3 years I guess. if this were normal practice then why would I get a letter now and not every year? Is this normal insurance practice? This is the first time in my life that I've gotten one of these letters about a homeowners policy if it is not normal practice would this be because someone said something?

How much life insurance should we have on each other at our age?

My husband is 27 turning 28, I am 24 turning 25. We own a home owe roughly 98,000 on it still, have two children. No credit card debt at all. (don't have any cards) Our cars are 2,000 away from being paid off so I don't think that should be figured in at all. I have 100,000 on my husband and 150,000 on me. I took more on me because he has no family here and though my family of course will help him if I passed away but I thought because I stay at home and he would have to find daycare and all he would need more. My sister said I should take out at least 2x my pay off on my house so that I could pay it off and still have 100,000 to cover financial issues until the parent left could settle in to taking care of a house hold alone. Do you agree? Should we increase our policies? I just don't know...it is hard to think of these things but I want to make sure that if one of us pass away my family will be taken care of and not have to worry about money.""

""Why can car insurance base on statistics, but other things can't.?""

Is it women who gossip more at work or men? Is it women who bring their personal life to work more or is it men? Is it women who will have to take a huge break at work because pregnancy or men? Why are women paid lower? Is it men that get in more wrecks then women? Is it men that have the need for speed always in their head while driving? Is it men that buy flashier cars? Why do men pay more for car insurance? So basically we have one type of company that can be sexist on statistics, but what about statistics everywhere else? Also, does the rule not look at soccer mom statistics? I've seen way more women talking on their phone then men. Six parking lot wrecks at my work this year all caused by women in my office (none by men). I drive a 5 speed so talking on the phone isn't something I even like to try. The reason for my complaint is my sister is 17. She has one dui and two speeding tickets. I am 21 I have a clean slate other than a warning for my headlight being out and nothing else. My insurance is $1320 a year her insurance is $720. We drive the same car and have had the same courses. It makes me feel like it makes sense I should be paid more because I pay more because something I can't control.""

How to convince parents to let me have auto insurance?

I've had my license for a little over three months now. However, I have no insurance, and therefore cannot drive (in California). Their reasoning is that I am an unsafe driver which I disagree with because I quite easily passed my driving test at the DMV and always think before I do anything when I drive. However, they seem firm on their decision... It's a bit frustrating having my license for so long but still being unable to drive. I'm tired of having to always ask friends for a ride or my parents; I just want a taste of independence. Of course, I'm not trying to be too arrogant or stubborn, I've respected my parent's decision, it's just bugging me a bit now haha. I offered to do a six-month plan instead of a year plan since I'm heading off to college in Septemberish. I'm about to turn 18 in a couple weeks also. Does anyone have any advice?""
