#unofficial date

[kidge-planet]

hi everyone, wants some kidge today?

I just finished my first day of exams and so, I will today ( and it's been a while) write some kidge and answere some messages!!

Ok, so as some thing quick to write rn, I was thinking of their first unofficial and official date! so let's go ahead! :

The first date they had was unnoficial and Keith asked her out.

He was coming back to earth from a mission with the blades and the first person he wanted to see was Pidge, of course.

He has been thinking a lot lately, since the Atlas, the both had been very close and he can't help but constantly think of her. And, when he told his mother about his thoughts, it made him realise that he maybe wanted more with her. It still wasn't sure yet, so he decided to take the first step and try something. That way, he could see if he had a chance. After all, he hadn't talked to her a lot lately. He used to call her often but the blade was taking him too much time since a few month.

Now, there he was, his phone in one hand, thinking of how he should start a conversation. he wasn't going to call her because he didn't even knew how to ask, I needed some time to think of it compleatly and a call was too direct. He had never asked a girl out before. Never. let's say that when he was younger, he never experimented those types of feelings, it felt so new and so strange.

After some long minutes of over thinking, he finaly typed something: "Hi".

(Yea, he took more 10 minutes to type "Hi" but don't blame him! He thought about starting by "hello" but thought it was too formal. Then he wanted to put an emoji to make the mesage seem a little more nice looking and friendly but immediatly thought that it was a little too much because it didn't seemed like him, he rarely used emojis. Actually, he generaly didn't. He was bad to show emotions in messages so yup, Keith is one of these people that seem very cold in messages but is a total sweeet heart in real life. " Hi" Has his best option )

He stared at his his phone, his hands sweatig and his cheeks blushing hardly has he saw that she was writting.

"Hey, Keith! It has been a long time! What's up ?"

"I just wanted to make sure that you were ok and also to tell you that im coming back on earth next week."

"Well, im doing good, pretty busy lately but you know, I love my work so I don't think I care that much.. the only thing I miss is the afternoons of playing video games and chilling.. Or I also miss the full nights of sleep. I know, Im a "sleep depraved" but it's nice to have a full night of sleep from time to time so I don't have to end up drinking a hundred coffees to survive a day. Now, YOU 'RE COMING NEXT WEEK ?! We have to see each other! I miss you emo face lol!!"

keith smirked at his phone. He hated that, when people was calling him emo. But, when it came to her, he didn't care. He actually thought it was sort of cute from her. It was like it, they had nick names for each other: She was "shorty" or "Short one" ( Yea, it was generally about her high..) and he was "Emo" or everything that was pretty teasing around being an "emo".

I don't want things to be to seem too formal.. im not asking her out to tell her my feelings or anything yet.. He thought. He wasn't even sure of his feelings yet or if he even had a chance with her.

Maybe It'll be nice if we had some time to chill together? she said she missed chilling and to have free time..

"sure! Well, ever since you said you missed chilling, we could do something like it? I miss havin free time too and we might both need to relax."

Pidge immediately wrote back:

"Sure!! You could come to my place and we could have a movie night? What do you think? We'll get some snacks and order pizzas!"

Keith couldn't believe it. It was PERFECT. He started to type back immediately.

"Sounds great!"

They kept talking for a moment and then, a week later, Keith headed to her apartment.

He knocked at her door, and, after a few ticks, she oppened.

"Keith!"

She giggled and jumped in his amrs to hold him lightly.

"I really missed you!" she said with her head burried in his chest.

He warped his amrs aroud her, carressing her back and nuzzling his chin in her haires.

"I missed you too, shorty"

She gave him a soft laugh before to let him come in.

He had brought snacks and he letted them on the table that was in front of the couch where they both settled. They talked for a little moment, catching up on the last few month that had passsed. After almost an hour, they took blankets and started a movie. At the beginning of it, they were pretty far away from each other but as it went by, they both got closer and curled up under the covers. He was playing in her haires wich she really enjoyed. The night passed and they shared caresses and a warm ambraces in front of a nice movie and Keith's heart felt so warm. All he wanted to do was to cuddle her and to never let go.

The movie ended and he looked down at her; She fell asleep on his shoulder. And gosh. It was the most adorable thing he had ever seen. He couldn't help but let a kiss in her forehead. He then setteled her in his arms and slowly layed down, letting her in the top of him, on his chest. He smiled. it felt amazingly perfect.

He held her tight and fell asleep with an amazing feeling in his heart. He knew now that he wanted to end his life with her and that he'd do anything-

for the love of his life.

I will do another part with the official date soon, stay tuned!!!! ♥

Will mostly be reblogging for a while I think, but I’m gonna be real, 70 percent of my reason for making this blog in the hopes of writing was that I noticed a big chunk of CoD x reader posts on this hellsite have readers with like…concerningly low ages. There’s a lot of reader character minor-coding going on, and it’s weirdling me out (no shade to young writers, I know a lot of the reason is that a majority of CoD fanfic writers are 18-25 here, which, yk, fair that you wanna see self-inserts with similar ages).

But as I said, it gives me the ick, so if/when I end up writing x reader, I wanna go ahead and make it clear that I will not be writing a reader character in a romantic/sexual position BELOW the age of 25 at most. Most of the Call of Duty men are, like, 28 at the youngest, and I’m more inclined to write reader characters with matching ages, especially afab readers.

In other words? I’m gonna write milfs and dilfs. I’m gonna write top!reader. I’m gonna write unhinged women that leave the various men of TF141 screaming crying throwing up. I will NOT be writing virginal, innocent, or overly naive reader characters; I do not do minor-coding. Y’all have been warned.

I Am All In Rewatch - Episode 1x12 (Part 1)

You asked out Lorelai! You asked out Lorelai! Yeah I did twice twice, and and not denied twice but interrupted twice. What it was like asking out? Dateus interruptus...Mrs Mrs Kim comes storming in looking for Lane, like throwing a mom fit right in the middle of my asking out, Lorelai. Right, it just it just I just kept getting jammed up. -Scott 

[I wonder what would have happened had Mrs. Kim not just like barged into the diner. Would you have gotten your kiss you years earlier?] No, I think she delayed it a little bit, not much. Who knows if if things were to go stay on his plans, Um, yeah, would have happened probably that year, that season. But yeah, life got in the way for four years. [We weren't ready for it. Wait, what card game was that you guys were playing?] Five card draw? [Is that poker?] Yeah [But you let her break the rules?] I did. I gave her four extra and if you want four cards, you have to show your ace. The only way you can get four cards is to have an ace. And I didn't require that. She showed me her Ace so I was just like really here just take one. [So you just really like her?] Yeah I like her... I liked when he pulled when he pulled out the deck of cards. I think that was cool because I mean, I grew up playing cards, That's what we do on the east coast. We played a lot of cards when we were kids. We gambled when we were kids. It was unbelievable. -Scott

on Nie Mingjue's birthday

Since some people mentioned they didn't know about it: he doesn't have a canonical birthday chosen by the author like Wei Wuxian, Nie Huaisang, etc; but a few years ago they released an official CQL calendar which featured some characters' birthdays, including NMJ's, on January 1st of all dates

After it was released, some people started celebrating, especially on twitter, using the #聶明玦生日快乐0101 hashtag and the #HappyBirthdayDaGe tag (and i encourage you all to check both). The latter is used every year since I found out about this calendar, on a little event hosted by Hourly Nie Mingjue (which is me but we don't need to go there)

So, it's not Official™️ like some other character's birthdays, but it's a date and since there was never a consensus on when to celebrate his birthday, a lot of us just accepted this one.

You can check all the dates featured in the calendar on this compilation.

(spiritual sequel to this ficlet)

It is only a week later that Caleb opens his door to an unfamiliar figure– unfamiliar, that is, until the elf speaks his name in a lingering, gentle way that only one person ever has.

“Hallo,” Caleb says, and moves aside to allow the elf entry. As soon as he steps over the threshold, Essek’s disguise is dispelled by Caleb’s own wards. The item he is holding, however, remains, and Caleb cannot help how long he ends up staring at the large bundle in Essek’s arms.

“I brought a housewarming gift,” Essek explains crisply. His stilted posture and tone remind Caleb a bit of that first awkward breakfast at Essek’s towers in Rosohna.

And no wonder. Caleb swallows, taking the bouquet of multicolored flowers Essek holds. “You brought me flowers,” he says dimly.

Essek flushes. “There is also wine,” he says hastily, and a bottle is pulled from his wristpocket. Again, Caleb is reminded of their early days, back in Rosohna. The most expensive wine he could find, most likely; he makes a note of the label and decides to ask Beau later.

“Ah…” Caleb’s thoughts are interrupted by Essek’s quiet chuckle, and he notices how Essek’s fingers tap nervously against the glass of the bottle. “Is it too much?”

Essek’s awkward half-smile speaks to his discomfort. “Nein, nein,” Caleb reassures, ushering him further into the cottage. “I made dinner for us. The wine will be perfect.” Essek’s shoulders relax slightly at that, and Caleb takes the chance to draw him into a hug. “It is good to see you, friend.”

Essek smiles more genuinely at that. “Your home is lovely,” he offers, glancing around the small living space that is Caleb’s main room.

“I know it is small,” Caleb replies, stepping into the kitchen to look for a vase for the flowers Essek has given him. He thinks he recognizes some of the blooms from the Grove, and wonders if Essek has been back there already. “I usually spend my time in the tower. Which is up, for the record, in case my cooking is truly horrendous.”

Essek raises an eyebrow in a way that Caleb probably should not find as charming as he does. “Is there great chance of that?”

“Yasha has been learning,” Caleb explains sheepishly. “I thought I would also give it a try.”

“Oh…” Essek follows him into the small kitchen, where the table has been set, a modest meal prepared, and a few candles are lit– an indulgence that Caleb is feeling much better about now, as he set Essek’s housewarming gift beside them. “You put a lot of work into this.”

Caleb smiles. “Well, I wished for your first impression of this place to be a pleasant one. And now we have wine and a centerpiece.” He pulls a chair out for Essek to sit. “Come, take a seat. I look forward to hearing about your exciting first week as a fugitive.”

Essek floats over to him, brushing his arm as he sits, a pleased gleam in his eye. Caleb’s fingers flutter as he takes his own seat across from him, unable to disguise his own pleasure. 

In many ways, the past few months have felt like stepping into a life that is not his own: he owns a home, and he is set to teach a guest lecture at the Academy in a month, and he is not on the road ready to fight for his life at any given moment.

Maybe it’s silly, making a big deal of this whole thing– dinner and wine and candlelight with a lovely friend– but then, he had never had a chance to do something like this the right way, before. The way an adult would do it. It is unfamiliar, but not in a way that overwhelms. And so he looks at Essek, who has taken a bite and is currently complimenting his culinary efforts, and sees a piece of the new life that Caleb is looking forward to building.
