This Ken’s job is hockey ⋆ ★ N.Hischier

Pairings: Nico Hischier x reader

Genre: fluff, SMAU at the end

Summary: In which you have a famous podcast with your best friend where you talk about everything and anything including stories about your relationship even though people don’t know the identity of your boyfriend — that is until you decide to hard launch him

Warnings: none

Word count: 554

⋆˚࿔ tina's note 𝜗𝜚˚⋆  Wrote most of this last night at midnight when I couldn’t sleep and didn’t proofread it but here’s a little blurb to celebrate Nico’s second hat trick and the two wins against the wild.

You were in the middle of filming a new episode of your podcast when your best friend brings up the topic of men’s fashion “Like when men were wearing those stupid jeans with ribs on them” Your face contorts in cringe thinking back on it “Or skinny jeans but like really tight skinny jeans”

“You know what I hate? When I see a girl on a date and she’s all dressed up and the guy’s made no effort” You say, your friend agreeing 

“YESSSS!!! I once went out on a first date with this guy and he wore sweats to it which I would get if our plans were just casual but we were going to a fancy-ish restaurant” You laugh at her story “You got lucky with Ken” 

“He lives in athleisure when he’s home, you have no idea” You chuckle thinking “He’s so over suits which sucks cause he looks yummy in them” 

Your friend winces at your last comment “Please never call him yummy again, anyways for those of you who don’t know Ken—”

“My boyfriend” You clarify 

“Yes, his job requires him to wear suits and y/n loves it” 

“I do love it” You nod at the camera 

“You know, you’ve never revealed why you started calling him Ken online” Your friend says “Why don’t you share that story with everyone?”

“Oh well it started because I’ve never shown him in anything before and we’ve always talked about having a more private relationship since well you know I post a lot of my life on the internet” You say, your friend nodding as both of your content outside of the podcast is pretty similar “And there was this day when I was you know doing my usual making my coffee and sharing a story tiktok and the story was about how I’d had a bad day the day before I hadn’tslept enough”

“And you guys don’t want to deal with a sleep deprived y/n, it gets bad” Your friend adds 

You flip her off before continuing your story “Anyways I was tired and cranky and my he had made plans for lunch that day but because I was in a bad mood we ended up leaving lunch early to take a nap because he knew I would be insufferable for the rest of the day if I didn’t get more sleep” 

“Big nap household you guys are” You nod “I wish i could nap but I can’t sleep during the day”

“Honestly? I wasn’t much of a napper before him” You say “But now I love naps” 

“Okay finish your story” Your friend reminds you knowing this nap tangent could keep going for way longer 

“Right, so after I posted that one comment said ‘Barbie has a great day everyday, but Ken only has a great day If Barbie gets enough sleep’ and then I just started calling him Ken when I told my stories” You finish 

“Well I think the nickname Ken does suit him to be honest, I will attest to Ken only having a good day if Barbie smiles at him” Soon after that you two finish the episode.

It’s months after, on your 2 year anniversary, after sharing dozen of stories about ‘Ken’ that you finally hard launched your relationship with an Instagram post.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆ CHATBOX LOVE -> kenma kozume !!!

ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁 .ᐟ NEVER MET! by CMTEN , glitch gum

synopsis; in which kenma is sent into a spiral after seeing a familiar username cw: deff slight angst, discord type-love , usage of baby , erm exes trope , kenma crash out , unproofread + lowercase , implied f!reader but can be interpreted as gn!reader , idk if its ooc but prob eek,

"and even though it's been a week, i still think of your face"

already? wow, a week since you had ended things with kenma. to him, it felt like months. years, even, which was why he decided to stop counting the days.

so imagine his surprise when he had randomly matched up with you in roblox.

he swears it was you, had all the the same numbers in your user, all the same accessories in your avatar.

he just had to type in the chatbox, he didn't care how desperate he sounded, he wants you back:

kod5uken : [baby? baby thats u right? its kenma]

skibidi1234 : [uhhh no sorry dude idk you]

ah. and then skibidi1234 left, probably weirded out. damn it, he was hallucinating now. on top of that, he was stupid enough to say his real name online.

he left the game himself too, closing roblox in a rage. he wanted to sleep, but his puffy eyes and stuffy nose made it hard to do so.

─── ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ ───

barbie : [kenma we need to talk ]

kennie : [what is it]

barbie : [lets break up]

kennie : [oh]

kennie : [okay]

barbie : [im sorry, i cant juggle you and studies]

─── ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ ───

that was the last he's heard from you because you've blocked him on everything. hell, you even blocked him on spotify. he should've listened when everyone told him e-dating was going to ruin him.

but how could he resist? he had fallen in love with you already. you were his perfect partner; games with him (somewhat bad, but you both managed), funny, attractive, his type. it's just unfortunate that you had to live miles away from him.

kenma's done sooo much impulsive things just for you: blew all his money on the latest 2-player game from steam so he could play with you, vc'ed until the latest hours of night just so he could keep talking to you, he even skipped some volleyball practices so he could come home earlier just to see you in a video chat.

ugh, he can't count all the times he's lost his dignity either. he had called you "his barbie" and he called himself ken. oh god, that was probably one of the cringiest things he's said in his life.

and don't even remind him about online karaoke, god knows how much screen records you have of his voice breaking mid-song.

speaking of records, he can't bear to delete all the adorable pictures you sent while updating him about your day. he's always liked seeing what weird and interesting things you've done. but worst of all, he's kept screenshots of every loving and tender message from you that had flustered him (spoiler alert: anything you said made his ears red.)

he opened the album he had moved the screenshots to, scrolling through it until his eyes settled on a certain one:

─── ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ ───

barbie : [baby u live in japan right?]

kennie : [mhm]

barbie : [nice]

barbie : [just wait, im gonna buy tickets to fly there soon]

kennie : [ur crazy]

barbie : [sure yes whatever... i luv u ken :P]

kennie : [i love you too]

─── ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ ───

oh, dear. he can feel tears running down his cheek again. yep, there it was. his recently cleared sinus was blocking up again. damn it, he thought, as he wrapped himself tighter in the sheet. he can't even enjoy playing his games anymore.

kenma still misses you, from the very day you left him. you were his perfect partner, even though you had heartlessly shattered his heart and he would probably never entrust someone with it.

you know what, he'll never respond to some random dm ever again.

unless it was from you, of course.

"it'd be better if we had just never met"

a/n: was a request from two of my dearest friends who suprisingly are kenma luvrs LOL hi guys @rahhhr @terrariumaura also this was a nod to his 2020-self ik this was so cliche and someone has probably done this but i hoped you like my own (short) spin on it guys do uu know the genius that thought of their chat names BECAUSE BECAUSE THE SONG GOES LIKE "REMEMBER WHEN I CALLED YOU MY BARBIE AND I WAS KEN" IT FITS SO WELL BECAUSE KEN-MA okay bye

Look at that woman (breaking my heart) | part three

Pairing: Lewis Hamilton × Vettel!Reader

Summary: For one and a half years Lewis and y/n managed to keep their relationship a secret, until it blew up in their faces. Now, they're trying their hardest to pick up the pieces...

Warnings: age gap (reader is 27), fluff and angst, plot is thickening…

masterlist

The morning after…

He knows that he shouldn’t be in this bed anymore. He should’ve left the moment he woke up and realized that he wasn’t in his own hotel room. He should’ve done so many things, like taking a cold shower and texting y/n that last night was nothing more but a mistake. That she is simply too young for him and that her brother is his best friend. “Last night shouldn’t have happened, I hope we can move on from this and remain friends.” Yes, that’s exactly what he should’ve texted her.

But he didn’t. Instead, he has been watching her and the way her head is comfortably laying on his arm for the last hour. Y/N’s hand is gently holding onto his biceps. He has known this woman for such a long time- when did things change? His right hand brushes a few strands of hair out of her face, which earns him a soft sigh in return. This is nice. He vows to himself to get to know her better- in a different way.

He can feel her stir and a moment later a sweet smile appears on her lips. “Hey.”, she softly says, voice raspy and fragile. Almost like honey dripping down a spoon. Lewis can’t help but mirror the smile:” Hey.”

“Did you sleep well?”

“I dreamt about you, so pretty good. Yeah.”

Y/N lets out a weak chuckle and rubs her eyes:” You’re that charming after weaking up? Give me five minutes.” At that Lewis laughs before propping himself up on his elbows:“ Take your time…“ He sees how Y/N opens her mouth to response to him when suddenly his phone rings.

user 4: not one post with nico... suspicious 🤨🤨🤨

user 5: @/user4 right??? she has hundreds of lewis but none of her "boyfriend" 🙄

roscoelovescoco: love you auntie y/n ❤️

“Who is it?”, Y/N asks tilting her head, and Lewis rolls over to grab his vibrating phone off the bedside table. “It’s my manager.”, he mumbles:” It’s- it’s too early for him to call me.” His eyes move up the screen: 8:34 am.

The moment he presses the green button he can hear different voices talking over one another. “Lewis?”, his manager, James, declares almost immediately. “Yeah?”

“Please.”, James says, and the driver can hear the annoyance and bitterness in his voice:” Please, tell me you’re not with her right now.”

His eyes move back to Y/N, who is scanning his features for any signs. “What if I am?”

There’s a lengthy and heavy silence before James lets out a deep groan. Lewis can practically feel the frustration coming through the phone. “Why do you care so much about that kind of thing? You haven’t before.”

“Why do I care-? Lewis, there are photos of you and Y/N circulating online. You do know what the people are going to say about that- about you, right?”, his voice is suddenly very calm, too calm for this type of situation. “You have known this girl since she was a teenager. You were already in your twenties. You know what they’re going to say about that- think about your reputation. Please, I need you to focus on what’s important.”

Jason Todd Headcanons

just a few thoughts that help inform the way i write this doof. it's linked below as well, but check out jason's spotify wrapped if you have a minute! ;-)

Samsung User

Jason says he likes his coffee dark, but secretly orders flavored lattes (see that one Hozier photo)

Puts cinnamon in his coffee grounds

He may have good taste in books, but he's got shit taste in movies

Loves a few basic safe picks - Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, things you might expect from someone like him

But his "Watch Again" list is all cheesy action movies and wacky comedies. Mark Wahlberg appears a little too often.

Doesn’t watch a lot of television, but sometimes likes to fall asleep to Family Guy or South Park

Has one ear piercing he got on a dare, done by either one of his brothers or one of the Outlaws

Good gift giver, but only wraps things in newspaper

Really terrible about remembering to take his medication

To the point that Dick and Tim got him one of those every day of the week pill boxes as a joke - but it's actually been incredibly helpful

Is a regular at his neighborhood corner store

To the point where the guys at the counter don’t even card him anymore

He's the type of man to sleep till noon, 1:30 on Sundays

If he's sharing a bed, he will snuggle up to you in his sleep

Snores

Unfortunately uses 3-in-1 shampoo/conditioner/body wash

Has an high tolerance for weed, which annoys the hell out of him because he enjoys a joint but does not fuck with edibles

Every time he tries an edible, he stares at himself in the mirror for three hours and Does Not like it

Drunk Yapper

Beer Drinker

Doesn't always know his own strength

Not in the accidentally-break-someone's-arm type of way, but definitely in the sometimes-closes-the-door-too-hard-and-goes-"whoopsie daises!" type of way

Thankfully, he's become a pretty great handy man

Despite being a certified Car Guy, he did die at 15 and as a consequence is lowkey still learning how to drive a non-military grade car (in other words, he's a shit driver) (but it's okay, he sticks to the motorcycle and public transportation)

He's not a hugger, but he is a leaner

Thrifts all of his clothes

Prefers to get his books from local indie/second-hand/new & used bookstores

But still has a Barnes & Nobles membership card

His bookshelf is not organized what-so-ever; it's started to operate as more of a gun rack while his books get stacked underneath his bed (he tells himself that this will make him get through his To Be Read list faster)

His top played song of last year was “Kiss Me Through The Phone” by Soulja Boy

His music taste can be divided into three primary playlists; East Coast Rap, Metal, Ear Worms

Is the family expert on the Gotham underground music scene

He isn’t big on social media at all, but he has a Twitter with like 15 followers he uses to keep an eye on whoever

(and also to keep up with music and book updates)

He’s occasionally very funny on it. But just occasionally.

Just Online enough to know who Trisha Paytas is, not Online enough to know who ClubChalamet is

He got his GED once he joined the family again

and yes, they threw him a little party to celebrate

Has the BatChat on silent, but still checks it regularly

Terrible texter; you’ll either hear back from him immediately or in three weeks time

“srry didn’t see this”

(he did see this, he just got anxiety about it)

Has a lot of anxiety about smalls things like that

Especially when it comes to the Bat Family

He’s not always sure where he stands with everyone - if they like him, trust him, want him there

Paranoid that they’re nosy because they secretly think he’s going to go rogue again

Has to constantly remind himself that they’re just nosy the same way that he’s nosy - because this is literally a family of detectives

May Osewai - Crippling Case of the Cringe

you better hope to god she isn't actually sadako, because she will judge you on your search history on her way through your browser--

Mayumi “May” Osewai [09/09/81] Secretary of Manga AOL / Online Users : [sadako_chan] Theme Songs: Living Dead Girl - Rob Zombie | She’s Out of Her Mind - blink-182 | FUNERAL GREY - Waterparks

Favorite Shit: Anime Adaptations, Visual novels, Horror / Gore, Battle Royale(s), Monster Movies, Slasher Flicks, Acrylic Stands, Hard Covers, Asian horror, Foreign Films, Evangelion : Neon Genesis, Ghost in the Shell, Corpse Party, Torrent Sites, The X-Men, Spawn, Teen Titans, Accurate Translations, Uncensored Doujins, Silent Hill, Serial Experiments : Lain

Dude get this girl a therapist and someone other than a rabid werewolf for a brain-worm weird fluttery thought friend GUEHAKL. please. please. With literally no other friends and no longer in an environment surrounded by.. "peers", she kind of has no choice but to keep putting up with Bill despite how much of a creep he gets sometimes. They're like a family.. A horrifically disfunctional family that should maybe only meet every other christmas, and yet they're glued together despite it all. It has to be karma punishing them, right?

We are the weirdos, Mister.

This poor girl has a really bad anxiety problem and is also horrifically oblivious to a lot of things which is not a good combo. She hates the thought of missing something or making someone upset by having to make them explain, but good god she cannot read a room sometimes--

She also maybe most definitely has autism. that might have something to do with it..

She masks well enough that she genuinely just thought she was "weird" and just kinda accepted it when she moved to the states. She didn't even start to think about it until Jerry started bringing up the shit he learned in therapy.

She honestly is just kinda.. Blunt? good or bad, though she does have enough forethought to keep the bad thoughts to herself most of the time. It's more in a quiet "wait, what did she just say?" kind of way.

She struggles to express actual internal monologue, her actual emotions and thoughts on the boys, but she shows it in.. other ways.

She genuinely cares about the boys, yes even bill, though he's like.. Like if Jane and Bill were closer in age and Bill actually wouldn't leave her the FUCK alone.

Though it's not like Pete's any better-- he always so weirdly macho and it's... kinda funny? Weirdly endearing? Like a little terrier going going absolutely ballistic on the screen door. Heh. cute.

May has designed entire pokemon decks and trainer teams for the boys. They'll get posted eventually I promise vuv

She absolutely tries to play card games with Jerry and Matt, though she really only likes the play Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, but she'll happily watch the two smears duke it out.

its kinda funny seeing Matt lose every once in a while.

May and Josh argue about Evangelion ALL THE TIME and it's honestly annoying but it's also very funny to see Josh get flashbacks about asuka--

She is also one of the first people Josh goes to to hang out with, even if it's just over a phone call.. well, at least for a while. He likes to talk, so she just kinda doodled mindlessly or painted her figures while listening.

... she could tell he needed it.

ALso girls omg she is still the clumsiest woman I have ever seen. She might need a new prescription like seriously.

May got a job at the local family video, so you bet your ASS Pete harasses her at work whenever he can sneak out of his own work duties. He's lucky he's cute...

She may be oblivious to some emotions, but she's not stupid.

She collects stuffed animals, but mostly pokemon plushies and assorted horror mascots. She is still really embarrassed about having them, but literally can't sleep if she doesn't have at least one like it's a problem--

She is also like icy cold. All the time. like she just pulled her hands out of the freezer. Pete uses this as an excuse to hold her hands because he's a fucking smear I swear to god he needs to grow some BALLS

ALSO HI CAN I TALK ABOUT HER SHIRT FOR LIKE 10 SECONDS ITs an indie japanese-canadian band called "Rotten Cherries" and it does rock covers of japanese pop music and even some remakes of songs by The Cranberries and Boa

THanks guYs

Also I enjoy the reference pic for her pajama shorts LMAO

GUYH Have May.

Also sorry for repeat info at the top, it's to keep with the formatting fhdsjkafinfdsajhfkdlsfhl

[bloodied-blossom]

hiii I was wondering if you could write something with Misaki and a reader who surprises them with a visit, and they spend the whole day together :3 tysm have a great day/night! ٩( ᐛ )و

You learned to teleport and you didn't TELL ME??

2k Words; Misaki x Reader (REQUEST!)

Killer Chat! Fanfic

Small Spoiler for Misaki's LAST NAME!

Misaki and you had been dating for a while and, despite being long distance, it worked out amazingly. You loved the late night calls, funny photos, and stupid convos you two shared... but you wanted to be there with them. So with a little help from your buddy V, you had your one way ticket to see your lover...

{THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE REQUEST! ENJOY!}

ᯓ★══════

“Heyy dork! Come on, turn on your camera!”

Their voice played into your ears through your headphones. Your smile widening as you turn it on.

“There you are! Hehe, you look as cute as ever today!”

They leaned forward, her smile far brighter than yours, at least you thought so.

You never thought that being invited to a serial killer server would end up with you alive… much less actually getting into a relationship with one. Misaki Katsuo. They were one of the more chaotic ones on the server. But she was definitely nice to you. Throughout the months you spent there, avoiding Ronin’s overwhelming presence, making friends, and seeing things you could’ve gone without, you’ve actually found yourself fitting right in.

She had her suspicions about you too, she did. But it didn’t stop them from growing closer to you, trusting you, and opening up to you about things she’d never want to burden anyone with.

And to be that person for her? It made you happier than ever..

“Heeyyy are you listening to me? How do you like my new house?”

They laughed, leaning back into their chair as their terrible greenscreen portrayed a low quality image of an expensive house. You could only laugh with her, your heart swelling with affection. “This is your best one yet, actually, how many scrolls did it take to find the photo?” You say, leaning against your hand. They feigned offense, holding a hand to their heart. “It took me a lot of VERY REAL MONEY, Thank you!”

You often had late night calls like this, goofing off when you both couldn’t sleep. Their voice brought you serenity, her face looked so holdable, so kissable… You wanted to be able to do that.

“Hey, you okay?” Misaki asked, worry displayed on their face. You hadn’t noticed your smile had turned into a frown at the thought. You sighed, crossing your arms and leaning against the desk. “It’s not fair… I want to be able to be there with you…”

You looked back up at your screen, seeing her face shift as well.

“I know… I want it too. But hey! We’ll be able to see each other again soon, so don’t worry!”

-ᯓ★══════

Soon… the words rang in your head as you lay down to sleep. You couldn’t wait that long, no matter how soon it was, it was never soon enough. But you had a thought. During Christmas, you had surprised Misaki by flying with V over to visit them. It was the best few days of your life… surely V would understand and help you pay for a ticket, right? For his best friend?

You smiled mischievously, happily going to bother V in his dms. :D..

`<USER> [22:37]`

` OH VVVVVVVVVVVVVVV!`

` BUDDY. YK I APPRECIATE OUR FRIENDSHIP…`

` :3`

You giggled to yourself, watching his profile, waiting for him to come online. And a few minutes later, he started typing, popping back online.

`<K9> [22:37]`

` Oh. Yes, I would hope you do.`

` It is late for you though, you should get to bed.`

`<USER> [22:37]`

` I will- if you help me out?`

` PLEASE?.........`

You seemed desperate… but for Misaki?? FOR LOVE?? IT WAS WORTH IT!

`<K9> [22:37]`

` What do you need now, [NAME]?`

` I told you I wasn’t going to get you a cat, you need to do your research before I trust you to be ready with caring for one.`

`<USER> [22:37]`

` I KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF ONE JUST FINE- But it’s not about cats this time.`

` It’s- about Misaki?`

You watched as he typed, nervously biting your lip. You knew V would at least listen and give you advice if he couldn’t help you pay for a ticket. But the thought of you having to wait and save up more for one just to be there for a while made you antsy… You really did want to see them.

`<K9> [22:37]`

` If it regards Misaki, I’m willing to help.`

` What is it now?`

You took a deep breath, heart racing as you typed. Silently begging and praying that he helped you.

`<USER> [22:37]`

` I really want to see them again… but I don’t have a lot of money to do so… I was hoping you could help me buy a ticket maybe?.. Just a ticket! I can take care of everything else!`

The minute you send the hit button, you shut your phone off and hide your face in your pillow. You were VERY embarrassed at the fact that you had to come and ask V for help. You weren’t above sitting there and begging him to help you either, for that matter. When finally… he responded.

`<K9> [22:37]`

` If it’s for you to see Misaki… I do not see why not.`

` I know it’ll make both you and them happy, and that's a positive for both of us.`

` Have you told her yet?`

You let out a long sigh of relief, quickly clearing up the fact you wanted it to be a surprise. You were thankful for V. Thankful that he was both you and Misaki’s closest friend, and that he wanted nothing but you and them to be happy. Bestest friend ever.

`<USER> [22:37]`

` Thank you so much V… really.`

ᯓ★══════

You and V spent the rest of the night talking about your arrangements. He pushed, offering to give more so you could extend your stay, and you graciously accepted. Anything for more time with Misaki… You packed a small gift you planned on giving to her, your essentials, clothing, hygiene, etc… everything you needed for nearly a month-long trip. This was going to be the best trip ever. You planned out things you wanted to do, and you had the money to cover it…

A smile formed on your lips as you packed your car, ready to head to the airport. You had told Misaki you would be offline for the next two days… and little did they know you were going straight to her.

It didn’t take you long to get there, nor did it take you long to board the plane. You could barely contain your excitement as you packed your overhead with your carry on bag. V had bought you first class so you could fly comfortably, and you seriously had to make it up to him later on… maybe help him with his own love life. You chuckled at the thought.

Reclining your seat and getting comfy, you shut your eyes, imagining how everything would go… You’d be able to hold them, kiss them, see her smile and hear her laugh… it made your heart feel all fuzzy, your chest all warm. You couldn’t wait to land. As the plane took off, you could only think about how lucky you were to have someone like Misaki in your life.

ᯓ★══════

Once landing, you rented a car and packed your stuff up. You were buzzing with excitement, you could barely contain it. The first thing you did when you got into the car was check your phone. Looking at your missed messages, you went to V first. You told him you landed and thanked him once again for helping you out. After you caught up with the texts Misaki left you, smiling. You shot her one simple message, asking her to voice call…

The moment you sent the text, she went online. Not bothering to answer your text, they called you right away. Their voice filled the car from the speakers.

“Hey there you are! I thought I was going to have to wait longer than this! Whatcha up to?” you could hear the smile in their voice. You were just as happy.

“I’m on the road, love.” You said, starting your drive. You were going to get food first, wanting to spend as much time together with Misaki before having to do stuff like eat and sleep.

You could hear her gasp over the speaker.

“Oooooo~ Someone’s using their phone while drivinggg! You’re gonna get arressttedd OoOoOoo~” you couldn't miss them struggling not to laugh as they spoke.

You broke out into laughter, shaking your head.

“I’m not texting though, I’m on call~ With my lovely girlfriend..”

Your voice was sweeter than even you expected. You could hear Misaki break out into happy giggles. “Oh youu~”

You gave a long, pleased sigh. This… soon enough, you wouldn’t hear an automated version of their voice.. The static cutting it. You’ll get to see them.. Hear it personally just for you.

“Hey, Mimi, are you going to be busy for the next few hours?” you blurted out, pulling into a drive through line.

There was a small ‘uhh’ sound from the speaker, before she finally responded.

“Nope! I’m completely free today~”

“Perfect… I ordered something for you. It should get there soon.”

“You what?! Pookiiee nooo! I told you, you didn’t need to buy me things!”

You smiled, knowing full well you hadn’t spent a dime on any gift to be delivered

The money you spent getting here DOES NOT COUNT.

“Trust me, you’ll love it."

ᯓ★══════

Once you ate, you made your way to Misaki’s address. A huge smile on your face. You wanted to see them so badly you had nearly choked trying to finish your food as quickly as possible.

You finally made it to that familiar trailer, parking the car quickly. You left everything in the car as you stepped out. This was it. The moment you have been waiting for…

You walked up the trailer steps, hearing movement inside… before you knocked on the door. You stepped back off the stairs, waiting for the door to open.

…

WHAT YOU DIDN’T EXPECT WAS THE DOOR TO SWING OPEN AND YOU TO GET TACKLED-

“SWEETHEART!? HOW ARE YOU HERE? DID YOU LEARN HOW TO TELEPORT? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? DIDN’T YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO DO?”

Hearing your partner’s surprised voice, and seeing her pretty face close to yours, all you could do was smile and burst out laughing. You hugged them tightly, squeezing.

Misaki took a small breath before bursting out laughing too, hugging you back. They lied their head against your chest, their eyes watering.

“I missed you.. I missed you so much… Seriously, how did you get here?.” They spoke softly, kissing your cheek. You smiled down at them and sat up, your legs entangled with theirs. “I uh…” you hesitated, smiling at them “I had the money… I’ll be here alll month. I’ve got enough money to get a hotel if you wanna stay in one… or can we stay here?”

Their eyes went wide, their face red. “You’re kidding?! All month?! That’s so much time- we could do so much! Oh my god, there's this place that recently opened up that we could go to! It’s a fucking cat cafe!”

You listened intently… Her happy face, that smile… the way their eyes lit up as they spoke. You really did love them. You pulled them closer and softly kissed their lips. You watched their pupils dilate before shutting your eyes, wrapping an arm around their neck. You felt the smile moments before you pulled away, their demeanor a lot calmer than before.

“So, what was that about?” They teased, leaning their head against your shoulder.

“We can talk about what we’ll do later, alright? For now, I just wanna enjoy some time alone with my partner…” You admitted, leaning your head against theirs.

You could see them reach for your hand and you swiftly intertwined your hand with theirs.

“Yeah… I liked the sound of that… Let’s get inside silly.”

“Yeah. The ground hurts-”

They chuckled, standing up quickly and helping you inside. You forgot all about your stuff in the rental car you had. You didn’t need it right now. You had her, and that’s all you could want for right now.

...Though, you did had to admit that V is the one who gave you the money eventually.

And there we go! This is the first Misaki fic I’ve ever written and i'm so happy it happened to be a request! Misaki was my third favorite love interest, simply because of preferences for men, but they were so silly yet so interesting at the same time I just couldn’t help but love them!

Excuse my sudden absence I had the worst writers block.

You’ll find They/She pronouns used in a sort of cycle? Switching between the two every now and then because of Misaki’s preferences!

No Honorary @ because i’m not actually aware of any misaki fans yet but thank you so much anon! I genuinely might make a part two of this if it's requested! Enjoy leaflets!

[Image Description: A guest ao3 user with a redacted name over a comment reading, "Nobody is going to lose their shit over someone being a demisexual. Lmao nobody gives a shit about it. Some people really wanna be oppressed huh"

A reply from the fic writer below reads, "You know, I’d be less disappointed in you and this comment if I didn’t have a giant beginning author’s note explaining that this whole fic was based on my real-life experiences as a non-binary demi person. So I hate to break it to you, but I have had people freak out on me when I tried to come out as demi to them.

There’s a term my girlfriend used—the “oppression olympics.” It’s where some queer people make oppression and who faces the worst of it some sort of competition, and ace people have been perpetually excluded from and minimized from the community because we’re “not oppressed enough.” This is something I had to unlearn when I was going through my journey, because I always saw myself as a less legitimate member of it growing up because my friends suffered more. I had friends whose mothers would cry at the sight of them in a skirt. I had friends who were made to sleep on their porches. And me? Well, I looked straight. I looked cis. I didn’t date. I didn’t know who I was. So if someone who’s faced more hardship because of their identity tells me that my identity is harmful to them, was I going to believe them? As a young, questioning queer person, I did. This was ten years ago. The community from back then isn’t the same community it is today.

The thing of it is, is that your identity shouldn’t be defined by how oppressed you are. Being oppressed doesn’t somehow make you more or less legitimate. Being queer isn’t about that. We’re more than our oppression.

Sharing this wasn’t about going “oh I’m so oppressed, give me attention.” It was just about sharing my experiences online through my writing. There are ace people who have experienced far worse than me, and while my heart goes out to them, it doesn’t make my experience any less valid. We all go through different journeys, and we experience different things. Being able to share these journeys with one another is a part of what makes creating so rewarding.

So yes, Mx. Redacted Username, I am disappointed in you. I think it’s sad that, as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community judging on your username, you would come on here to actively discourage ace people from sharing their experiences. I wonder if you would do the same to a trans, non-binary, lesbian, or gay person talking about experiences related to those identities. I’m afraid you might be doing an acephobia here, Mx. Redacted Username, by actively discouraging ace people from sharing their experiences.

So I hope you take a moment to sit down and re-examine your internal bias and why you would bother to come online and tell ace people to shut up. But at the end of that day? We’re all members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I think we should make efforts to make it a more welcoming and inclusive community, and when people share their experiences? Well, I think we should listen and not dismiss people."]

So. My point in sharing this on Tumblr is that it's important to recognize that acephobic attitudes are still alive and well, even in fandom communities, and it's important to stop and examine your internal bias every now and then.

And most importantly? If you're about to leave a comment on a fic where a writer has shared their own personal experience, and you're going to tell them in any way, shape, or form that they should shut up? Maybe don't leave that comment and take a step back.

[silverynight]

SILVERY! i’m the anon that wrote a few days ago about tanjiro knowing about the hashiras feelings and keeping it quiet to see what they’d do. i got home late from the hospital yesterday but i just woke up from a dead sleep because i had a dream about a modern KNY AU where everyone works in the same company and the hashiras are big shots that work under ubuyashiki and tanjiro is an intern there. they meet online over a mutual interest over a demon slaying game and they form a chat on discord but they don’t know each other’s identities, only the hashiras know each other. as they get closer, they start ranting to each other about their work crushes (tanjiro gushing about the hashiras without saying their names and the hashiras all gushing over tanjiro without saying his name). they’re all always encouraging each other to confess and surprisingly, it’s obanai that finds out that tanjiro is their online friend because he walks behind him when tanjiro is on his phone while having lunch and he sees him in the gc and goes all 😨😶😳😏 and he tells the other hashiras and they all hunt tanjiro down to confess to him. anyways, that was it and i hope that made sense, i just thought you should know.

Tanjirou's user name is The Sunshine (because Nezuko insisted) the Pillars go by their breathing techniques (the ones they use in the game).

The Sunshine: So you guys like the same person?

Flame Hashira: Yes!

Love Hashira: He's the prettiest, kindest human being we've ever met!

Water Hashira: I met him first though.

Wind Hashira: LIKE TEN MINUTES BEFORE THE REST OF US COUNTS, STFU!

The Sunshine: But... I mean... are you okay with that?

Sound Hashira: We agreed to share!

The Sunshine: Well, I wish you the best! I'm sure he also likes you back. You all seem like really nice people!

Insect Hashira: What about you? Do you have a crush?

The Sunshine: I have a few crushes and I don't think they'll ever like me back because they're too cool for me.

Mist Hashira: If they don't like you back, they're idiots!

Stone Hashira: You should tell them.

Serpent Hashira: We can get rid of them for you, if they turn out to be assholes.

The Sunshine: That won't be necessary! They're good people.

And it goes like that for a while because none of them say the names of their crushes until Obanai finds out, tells the others and they all confess the next day.

[carboardserpent]

Next gen headcanons? 🤔

Like, Jackson, Cruz, Tim, Danny, Chase, and Ryan?

Oh boy, that's a few characters. Alright, strap in then. Probably also gonna throw in Bubba because he's my favourite non-main next gen <3

(Humanised, as always)

(Quick disclaimer for this one, none of these are supposed to reflect on the irl racers that gave their names and voices to them - I'm treating these characters as though they're entirely fictional and not based on/inspired by real people. I make my HCs literally just based on Vibes (and RPs))

Jackson Storm:

6'1 and fit AF. Clearly spends a lot of time in the gym toning his body and muscles. He is male model levels of gorgeous. Physically flawless black man <3

Short black dreadlocks dyed blue at the ends.

Aromantic (female-leaning)bisexual.

Autistic.

Ray knew he was autistic before Jackson even knew himself, and is the reason he even got diagnosed in the first place.

One of his most common complaints is still about the reflections of the sun glinting in his eyes. The loud noise of the track still gets to him occasionally, but he has special earplugs to help him deal with it.

Can usually be seen drinking a can of IGNTR's flagship energy drink before a race. It helps him calm down and focus in. His sponsors love it, for obvious reasons.

Any time he's on camera, he acts calm and cool but internally he's freaking out. If they ask something he doesn't expect, he visibly tenses up and flounders for a second as he tries to figure out what to say, even if it was a simple question.

Doesn't do fan meets or signings unless he absolutely has to. Even then he tries everything he can to get out of them.

His physical attractiveness makes his already poor attitude even worse. Doesn't know how to talk to people, but gets all the praise and attention he could ever want online.

Yes, he posts photos of himself on various social media. He wasn't sure at first, but Ray convinced him to start shortly after his debut race, hoping that it would help reassure him and give him a bit of a confidence boost. Naturally, it went a little TOO well...

He's a gamer through and through. In any downtime he gets, he's still topping the leaderboards on just about every popular racing game you can play online. He also enjoys the occasional game of CoD and will verbally rip anyone to shreds if they try to come at him.

DUBSTEP. He loves it. If his skull isn't rattling from absolutely filthy, grimy bass, he's not interested.

So, of course, he has to have an incredible sound system that's probably worth more than the average person's car.

He doesn't watch anime. (Stop asking him if he does) Most of his entertainment comes from Twitch streams.

He streams himself playing Super Corsa 4 any chance he gets. Which isn't often with the packed NASCAR schedule, but he tries his best. His user is UrStormChasing

Still doesn't get along with Tim after their rivalry in training and isn't very good at pretending he does either. Their crew chiefs have to make deliberate efforts to stop them from running into each other before they get into their cars.

Cruz Ramirez:

5'5 with an athletic build. She is a Latina woman with visible abs and she deserves them gdi.

Side-parted brown hair a little shorter than jaw length, perpetually kinda wild looking.

Chaotic lesbian hours!

ADHD

Literally cannot sleep at night without a big, milky mug of coffee.

It's not normal to wake up and go for a run before even having breakfast?

She's teaching Lightning to use social media more regularly (for better or for worse). His homework is to send her a funny meme or video that he found that week.

The result of this can sometimes be catastrophic. She'll never be able to unhear him uncertainly attempting to use outdated slang.

Almost every race, there's someone complaining about how she doesn't weigh enough and it's unfair to the rest of them. So she forces them to watch as race officials put extra weights in her car.

Has cussed Danny out in Spanish across Pit Road and will do it again if he carries on-

Is probably the only person on Team Dinoco that is actually nice to Cal and doesn't try to tease him. They get along well.

Tim Treadless:

6'0 with a broad frame and light muscle tone.

Tanned skin and tousled brown hair.

Straight ally.

Just call him Mr. Charismatic, everyone loves him.

Everyone except Jackson, that is. Jackson is the only person who brings out his anger to the point of wanting to throw hands.

Has a wife and a baby, bc of course he does.

One of those guys some people hate for being irritatingly perfect. Usually people that don't actually know him.

Has type 1 diabetes and a bad nut allergy.

Was pulled out of a race at the last minute when he went into anaphylactic shock - the entire race was almost stopped when people started to whisper that it was foul play. The race went on, but the only reason for Treadless' absence was that he had to be pulled for "unforseen medical issues".

Some of the other racers still blame Jackson, who actually had nothing to do with it.

Danny Swervez:

5'10 and fairly slender. Not a lot of bulk to him.

Tanned skin (he's Latino) and short black hair.

Cishet male.

This man is FULL of himself. What an attitude.

Genuinely a good racer, but not many people like him.

He's not a good guy. He's given Cruz some trouble for being a woman, though after she embarrassed him by publicly cussing him out in Spanish, he's learned to keep his unpopular opinions on her to himself.

Isn't exactly what we would call "faithful".

But hey, at least he doesn't cheat on the track (smh)

Has just as little respect for the older racers as Jackson, but is less vocal about it.

Is very bitter about Jackson and Tim being more popular than him, yet still does nothing to change himself for the better.

Has at least attempted to physically fight with other drivers that messed with him on the track several times.

Chase Racelott:

5'9 with a build somewhere between Danny and Tim.

Pale skin and dirty-blonde hair.

Straight ally.

Generally a pretty likeable guy. Not as well-loved as Tim, but he has a good amount of pretty dedicated fans.

Makes jokes about being single/available.

Has pretty average performance on the track, not great, but not poor.

Fairly high energy, he gets along well with Cruz.

Probably one of the best with kids. Has a lot of younger fans because of how he interacts with them during meets and signings.

One of the few who will try not to leave until he's spoken to every fan who wanted to meet him, no matter how long it takes.

Often seen hanging around with Ryan - the two of them cause some pretty good natured trouble together, often involving pranks on the other racers.

Ryan "Inside" Laney:

5'11 with a broad build similar to Tim.

Mixed race (¾ Caucasian, ¼ African American), with short black hair.

Closeted bisexual.

Friendly, but not really a standout character as far as the fans are concerned.

Kind of cocky, but in a cool way.

Has a girlfriend who travels with him.

Agent of chaos when he spends too much time with Chase. Don't turn your back on him.

Bubba Wheelhouse

Absolutely massive 6'2 gentle giant

Another gorgeous black man (fight me), his skin tone isn't quite as dark as Jackson's

Closeted homosexual

Has a fake relationship with a lesbian woman who's actually just his best friend (the racing world is scary and the US South probably wouldn't love an openly gay driver)

Kids ADORE him. Him and Chase are the drivers with the most kid fans.

Throws a football around with fans over the catch fence during rain delays (this one is based on the real Bubba Wallace bc its wholesome af)

Gets asked all the weird gay questions by everyone in the friend group. (Ex. "Is it gay if...?" "What is X actually like?")

Legit just trying to mind his own business, he doesn't want any part of drama or rivalries.

Occasionally finds himself roped into girl talk if the guys have their S/Os around. They're very excited to include him. He's too polite to decline.

[ewanmitchellcrumbs]

I know you are tired of being reminded of the whole mess that’s been going on. I had no idea what was going on until foxyanon told me cause I asked. The shock that went through me when I was reading ems post. I was decent friends with bel and interacted a lot with her. Had no idea how vile those bloggers are, just damn right disgusting and rude. But I told em as well that I have nothing to do with what’s her face. I’m always here for you! This fandom needs some serious work done and rethinking. I’m screaming the biggest f you to her! I love your content even though I don’t say anything much. You’re wonderful and deserve better! 💗💗

Thank you for reaching out, and treating me like a human being. It is more than I currently deserve. I will place the rest of my response beneath a cut, as it will be quite long and I'd like to give people the option to scroll past, as they are doubtless tired of all of this, and rightly so.

Yes, the behaviour of that group is despicable, but I cannot downplay the gravity of my own in that.

I had a longstanding block with two users (I am not going to use their online nicknames, I do not deserve to), arcielee and sylasthegrim, I said disgusting things about both of them - the screenshots of my messages regarding them both on the post you have doubtless all seen are real (so is the final screenshot where I mention an anon I had received telling me to die in my sleep, the rest of the screenshots in that post have been falsified, doctored or snipped heavily out of context to make them appear hateful - the doctoring has been confirmed by two individuals well versed in Photoshop)

I hold my hands up and apologise to both those people, and the people that have seen those messages and been harmed by them. They are inexcusable, indefensible and were guided by a false belief that those two people were being hateful in turn about me, and actively going out of their way to harm and spite me. I am unsure what Bel thought she had to gain by exacerbating the animosity between me and Em and those two women, regardless, we should have done the mature thing and reached out directly to them. I will say, that I have never once sent anonymous hatred to either person. The extent of my vitriol was confined to that group chat.

Bel also used slurs in the group chat (I would like to point out that myself, Em and Fae did not). I won't repeat what these were. I do not want those ugly words on my page. They made me uncomfortable and I called her out any time she used one in particular, but she always laughed off my discomfort and carried on anyway. She is mixed race, I am white, in my mind it is not my place as a white person to tell an ethnic minority what is racism and what isn't. There are enough white voices shouting down others in online spaces. I know better now. I should not let my own discomfort silence me. I will call out hatred, bigotry and discrimination in every instance that I see it. My past inaction is embarrassing, it's offensive and I am devastated by the hurt I have caused to others. I am so deeply sorry.

I didn't speak up for a long time, because I have seen what these people are like when they have a grudge against someone. It's frightening, I was a coward. Yet despite staying silent on all of it, I have been doxxed just the same. I suppose perhaps that's karmic retribution?

I appreciate that people have felt my response has been lacking, however, I was out of the country, away from home, from the 14th until the 22nd, with only my phone at my disposal and with the expectation from my husband that I would enjoy the vacation we were on, and not be online dealing with all of this.

I would like the opportunity to atone for my behaviour, to make amends. Currently, I feel I am not going to be given the opportunity to do that, and understandably so. Emotions are high, people are raw from what they have learned and they do not feel comfortable being around me.

Seeing the screenshots of the people in their group passing around my personal photos and saying incredibly vile things about my appearance triggered a lapse with the eating disorder that I am in active recovery for. I then had another a few days later. I need to take some time away to get myself well, as the fear and anxiety of all of this is taking its toll. I also need the space to deal with the legal action I will be exploring with regards to Chris having doxxed me. I am not running away. I simply need to get myself into a space where I am stable enough to handle all of this, be accountable, and take responsibility without my own emotions diminishing other people's.

I know people hate me right now, but it pales in comparison to how much I hate myself. I am so very sorry for allowing this to happen.

More To The Story, chapter one.

So before we go out, what’s your address?

prologue

"Andddd...sent." you huffed, leaning back on the army green padded desk chair - anticipating a response from the mysterious talking heads fan who apparently, had some information regarding Tommy's disappearance.

Whilst you awaited a response, your eyes travelled briefly around your room before they found it, sitting freely on the fresh linen sheets of your bed.

That damn piece of paper, it broke your heart - shattered it, even.

Earlier on that day, you were working your usual shift at the Tipsy Tangle Bar - sweeping the floors most of the time per usual as you were too useless to do anything else (only god knows why Randy has kept you around for so long) when suddenly, Tammy Parker waltzed in - shaking and frail, holding a fat stack of papers in her right hand, using the other to hold one of the double doors open.

She looked exhausted. Like she hadn't gotten a drop of sleep, her eyes caved in, her eyebags dark, her hair a mess - and her soul crushed but somehow, in a way you couldn't even fathom, her eyes found Randy's and she smiled.

It didn't meet her eyes but...it left you dumbfounded to see how she was even capable OF smiling when she was dealing with one of the most world-crushing hardships anyone could face. Her only son missing and presumed dead. She was admirable.

"Randy! hi, umm...I was wondering actually if I could uhh..." she sighed before selecting about 15 pieces of paper out of the big pile and handing them to the man behind the trim, wooden bar. "give you a few of these, just to hand out and stick up? I already put up a few outside, and one or two on your door if that's alright I just...you know..." nervously chuckling she glanced down to her small booted feet anxiously and frowned.

Randy was quick to react as he held the papers in his hands with a vice-like grip, almost like his life depended on it, he smiled - politely, "I understand Bee, we all do...he's really damn' special, your boy." he nods, reaching out to touch her shoulder with his now-free left hand as he transferred the ownership of the papers into his right.

"I hope he's found soon, very soon..."

You really did hope so too, deciding at the end of your shift to take a paper home yourself, too.

PING!!

Snapping you out of your melancholy flashback, a dull 'PING' noise sounded from your computer.

Sighing, you click the green square button on the screen and it takes you to a completely new page, and here the chat began.

ThisMustBeThePlace is online.

ThisCharmingGirl joined the chat.

ThisMustBeThePlace is typing...

ThisMustBeThePlace: Hey there :)

ThisCharmingGirl is typing...

ThisCharmingGirl: Hi :) nice user lol, talking heads fan?

ThisMustBeThePlace is typing...

ThisMustBeThePlace: Well spotted, very well spotted.

ThisMustBeThePlace: nice user yourself, a fan of the smiths I assume?

ThisCharmingGirl is typing...

ThisCharmingGirl: Until I die. LOL

ThisCharmingGirl: So, you said you thought something about this kid's disappearance was off? What makes you say that?

You bite your lip, anxiously.

ThisMustBeThePlace is typing...

typing....

typing...

"how long does this guy wanna take?" you sigh, with a diminutive roll of your eyes.

ThisMustBeThePlace: Yes! I'm just outside of Drellington actually and heard about the whole thing from my Uncle - he told me that he thinks it was the kid's dad and he had taken him out of state due to a custody battle, blah blah blah whatever, BUT when I looked into it online, hence why I'm on the chatroom- I noticed something, a link. I'll attach it on here and hope for the best. Hold on.

'So he's pretty local' - you thought to yourself.

ThisMustBeThePlace: https/videodrive7jfke38GbfE45%3^/file.png

you click the link.

your brows furrow for a moment-trying to distinguish what you're seeing.

you gasp.

"what the fuck is this?" your brows furrow as you frown, trying to understand what was going on in the video.

A man speaking in what you believed to be Russian began to speak in the video uttering words you simply could not understand.

Hand signals making triangles flashed through the video along with clips of people in all black with some creepy ass masks on.

That's when you saw it.

A boy, head shaved- blindfolded and in a hospital gown.

but there it was - the birthmark on the right arm...along with the beauty mark above the left side of his lip.

It was uncanny, it was...

"Tommy." you whisper.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

chapter two

@stveharringtn HERE IT IS!! I'm so so happy with it!!

I've decided the plot will be a little similar to Stranger Things in terms of plot - hint to the Russians, and Noah Schnapp portraying the missing boy. However, many aspects will be different :))

lil short but I promise it gets better! just giving this fic a soft launch before it fully takes off lol

5. Ditch the Dating Apps

Dating apps are a modern day con. You spend enormous effort crafting a detailed profile, swipe on dozens of potential suitors, and spend hours chatting with them. In return, you receive half-assed messages and empty promises to take you out. After receiving various iterations of ‘hey’ messages, you begin to feel jaded and complain to your girlfriends that men are getting lazy in the dating process. Sound familiar?

This phenomenon is largely due to the fact that men and women have very different motivations in dating. Most women date to find a long term partner. Most men view dating as a means to sex. It is not a politically correct take but it is true. While some women may genuinely enjoy engaging in hookup culture, it is not the preferred outcome for the majority of women. Similarly, some men are uniquely intentional in their quest to find the right woman to settle down with. However, these same men would likely not turn you down if the opportunity for casual sex presented itself. You may think that you’re swiping from an infinite catalogue of men wanting a serious, committed relationship with you—but you’re not. Since online dating essentially offers you up on a silver (or digital) platter, it makes differentiating between men who are genuinely interested in you vs. those solely interested in hookups much, much more difficult.

Dating apps can also lead you to believe that you have more options than you ordinarily would IRL. Many users swipe to pass the time. Even more users will chat with you for hours to pass the time. If you’ve engaged in long back and forth app conversations with a guy who’s yet to ask you out, he’s not actually interested. If he had a higher level of interest, he’d at the very least suggest meeting in person and attempt to sleep with you.

And don’t be fooled by so-called relationship oriented dating apps—these can be some of the worst offenders. A lot of guys are relying on apps like Bumble and Hinge to keep you hooked for longer. They know that you are looking for a relationship and will swipe right even if they aren’t. If a man has swiped right on you despite having opposite criteria in their profile, it is because he is not considering you as a viable romantic partner. If he did, he wouldn’t overlook major incompatibilities in your profile (e.g. you want kids and he is childfree). In this way, your motivations are completely misaligned and online dating can lead to a lot of wasted time on both ends. For this reason, you are significantly better off cultivating a rich, social life and making an effort to meet new men on a regular basis.

Although there isn’t a single place to meet boyfriend or husband-worthy men, there is a successful method to increase your odds: accept more invitations to socialize and vary the events you attend. In other words, say yes to every social hangout. Go to the bars with your girlfriends, happy hour with your coworkers, your friend’s friend’s birthday party, your old college roommate’s baby shower, etc. While it doesn’t guarantee anything, meeting new men on a regular basis will help increase the odds of meeting the right person.

What a way to start off Monday Morning!-

Hours ago I woke up to Twitter notifications about Arion posting false claims of Red Radiant again on someone's tweet about Smash Bandicoot impersonating them.

He is purposely sharing this fake evidence as a way to claim that Red idolizes Smash Bandicoot and threatens people that he'll contact him through email so they can receive harassment.

I find this and ironic that Arion would go out of his way to say that he idolizes a creep online under Red Radiant's aliases as a cover up the fact that he's a creep himself.

This all eventually backfired when people caught on to his bullshit.

Especially when one user in particular decided to do their research on the accusations that Arion claims have been conducted.

This person reached out to me and told me what was going on while I was sleeping in still.

I find it hilarious that he calls me "She". Implying that he thinks I'm female. Plus, making note that he hasn't seen my videos I made from him.

Then he claims I support a pedophile when Red Radiant isn't an online creep and would then make a contradictory statement saying I impersonate him and Red Radiant 🤦‍♂️.

Is this person retarded?

Yes!

Anyways, here's this video cause fuck this dude.

[c-h-e-r-r-i-e-s]

Rei Drabble

Guys.. I’m like a very long time tumblr user but haven’t used this account in years. Decided to post this here since it didn’t do well on Ao3. I fixed it up a little in the process.

Anyway very suggestive nsfw (not super explicit but def deserves a warning) under the cut

You met him on a discord chat about a year ago and used to mod for a guy who played the newest Zelda game. He messaged you his number after one slow night in the chat and some interesting banter about the lore of Hyrule.

It started with a few text conversations just chatting about gaming but evolved into a sort of friendship. So when your boyfriend broke up with you a month ago, reaching out to Rei seemed natural. Then one night after you’d logged of discord you texted him:

Well that stream was good

Rei

Yeah you were good tonight

You

thanks!

Hmm weird of him to respond so fast. Usually he’s not so available.

Rei

I usually can’t sleep after a game like that. Are you going to be up for a while?

You

Yeah most likely. I’m a night owl anyway

Rei

Yeah same.

After a few texts back and forth you decided it was time to shoot your shot:

You

Hey is your pfp actually you?

Rei

Yeah why?

You

Oh you’re hot..

Rei

Yeah? Thanks

You didn’t know but he was blushing, laying down on his couch.

You

what if I asked to make this chat a little naughty?

Rei

Oh? How so?

You

Well we could give each other instructions

Rei

You've got my attention

You

Are you alone?

Rei

Yeah I'm alone

You

What are you wearing?

Rei

Jeans and a t-shirt. What about you?

Am I being too innocent with my answers?

Of course HE would be so cute and innocent. continuing to tease him you pressed on.

You

No lol and I’m in my sports bra and undies

Rei

you're a straight shooter aren't you

You

Oh I’m just being honest. I forgot I could be coy

Rei

I definitely respect that

You

What color shirt are you wearing?

Rei

Red. What color is your bra?

You

Grey lol

Rei

what kind of instructions were you thinking about giving me?

You

Do you have a free hand?

Rei

yes I do

You

Okay. Now put you hand on your thigh

Rei

And then?

You

slowlyyy slide it up to the waist of your pants

Rei

Okay I’m there

You

Unbutton your pants

Rei

Such a tease. Do you actually have a plan here or are we just seeing where this leads?

You

Winging it fully. What color are your boxers?

Rei

well this is fun anyway. They're black

You

That’s hot

Rei

So what next? you've got me all flustered

You

Slide your hand down and use your thumb on yourself but ovvverr the boxers.

Rei

Damn. What now? 👀

You

And nowww I’m going to tell you about me

Rei

Oh right, ok then. So what would you like me to know? Am I still free to keep my hand there?

You

Don’t you dare move your hand. You should know that I’m tracing my nipple with my fingers.

Rei

Lol alright my hand's not going anywhere Oh? You're doing that while we speak?

You

Yes and I’m quite needy

Rei

And why is that?

You

I have needs that have not been met recently

Rei

I hope that I can help fill them for you

He couldn’t believe what was actually being sent to you. That he was saying this and to you. You were easy to find online, all your cute little social media accounts linked to your discord. He could picture your little body in your bed. Knew you’d be on the cozy neutral tones of your bed spread.

You

Now my hand has moved down to the waist band of my underwear

Rei

you're really building up the anticipation huh

You

It’s more fun this way!

Rei

You definitely aren't wrong about that

You

You should know I have a praise kink

Rei

Haha oh yeah? You like people praising you while you touch yourself?

You

Exactly. I’m moving my hand a little lower now

Rei

Ooo now this is getting interesting

You

I’m actually soaked

Rei

oh really? You've really enjoyed this conversation then?

You

Haven’t you?

Rei

I'd be lying if I said I hadn't

You

Now I’m using my finger for little teasing circles

Rei

Oh? Is that fun or is that frustrating?

You

Both

Rei

yeah I can believe it would be. Are you planning on doing more?

You

Is that what you’re waiting for?

Rei

yeah pretty much

You didn’t text back immediately. Removing your thong for easier access to your dripping center.

You

I had to take my underwear off

Rei

Oh? Why did you have to take them off?

You

I couldn’t reach properly

Rei

Did it feel better once you took them off?

You

Yes so much better

Rei

You must've really enjoyed taking them off

You

I did

Not even sure what you were saying at this point so your body was squirming under your fingers and the thought of his touch. Snapping you out of your lust filled haze, you phone dings.

Rei

Are they comfortable off? Or do they make you feel a sense of freedom?

You

I got to let my legs drop open more

Rei

I guess they kind of restrict your movement

You

Is your hand still where I told you to leave it?

Rei

It's right there like you told me

Should I still not move it?

You

Good boy. You can have your fun now

Rei

Don't need to say it twice

You

I certainly am having my own fun

Rei

That is perfectly alright

So now your legs are free, what are you gonna do?

You

I’m dipping my fingers inside now

Rei

you're having way too much fun

You

Not enough imo

Rei

Oh? How much more fun are you after?

You

More

Rei

More is a good answer

You

It’s a slutty answer but it’s the truth

Rei

It's quite alright. I'm not complaining

You

My nails are too long and my toy is too far

Rei

that was not a problem I was expecting

You

It’s a problem

Rei

Have you not got anything else you could use?

You

Kinky of you.. what do you suggest?

Rei

Oh my god I never thought I'd hear myself say that. Idk, don't you have anything lying around or in the kitchen?

You

Oh shit I might lol

You get up and grab the bottle opener that you never use from the back of the silver wear drawer.

Rei

Is something in the kitchen catching your eye?

You

This is highly productive

You don’t care to elaborate on what is happening.

Rei

Oh? How is it highly productive?

I didn't think I had any input on the situation

You

I didn’t think you would either but here we are

Rei

What else would you like me to help you with? I'm up for whatever

You

Not done with this situation hold up

Rei

I'll wait for you

You

It’s cold hold on lol

Rei

we have all night. You better not leave me hanging. I'm too invested now

You

Are you having fun?

Rei

I can't lie, I'm absolutely loving this

You

Good to know.. what if I’m imagining it’s you helping me?

Rei

oh? And is that helping you?

You

It is

Rei Suwa

Well I'm glad I could help you then.

I can't stop smiling every time I get another one of your messages. You've genuinely made my evening better ❤️

Oh shit. His sudden emotional intimacy pushed you to get a little wetter.

You

Fuck

Rei Suwa

What did I do now? Sorry if I'm interrupting something

You

No you’re doing incredible

Rei Suwa

I hope you're not playing with me, you really don't seem like the type

You

I’m absolutely not messing with you

Rei

Send me a voice memo?

Pressing record you send a breathy panting memo:

You

I bet you’re huge

He responds back quickly with a text.

Rei

How much do you bet?

You

So much

Rei

Is that right?

What would you be willing to do to find out if you're right or not?

You

Don’t fuck with me please just tell me if I’m right

Rei

alright, alright 😂

What do you mean by huge?

You

7inches at least

Rei

I think you might be right then

You

I knew it

Rei

how?

You

I just know lmao I have a 6th sense

Rei

well you're very right

You

I’m so wet

Rei

I'm happy to hear that. Are you enjoying yourself?

You

Yes

Rei

Well this has been a lot of fun

You

I’m not done

Rei

I'm still here if you need me

You

Yes please

Rei

well what would you like me to do?

You

I’m not sure

Rei

Oh are you feeling a bit lost?

You

Tell me I’m doing a good job

Rei

alright, but only if you ask nicely

You

Pleaseee

If he was really here you’d be actually begging with the whine that left your lips.

Rei

You're doing so well. If this was a test you'd be getting an 100%

You

Okay solidified my praise kink that did

Rei

so you like saying please?

You

Yes

Rei

That's kind of a cute kink lol

You

Maybe it’s a begging kink?

Rei

maybe it is, who knows

Sending him another voice memo to hear what the thought of him did

You

Wow fuck. thank you?

Rei

you're welcome?

You

Lmaooo

Rei

I guess I should try it myself now

You

Do you need help?

Rei

I'd appreciate a bit of help, yes

You

What can I help with? Maybe describing my gym outfit?

Rei

I'm curious, go ahead, describe it

You

Tonight was a pair of black flared leggings and a low cut grey sports bra. You can see a big of my stomach between the top and pants. It’s very low cut

Rei

That sounds really cute.

And you said you were at the gym in that?

You

Yes, I’m sure my chest was bouncing on the elliptical

Rei

It must've made for a very distracting gym session

You

Not for me

Rei

I suppose not

Rei

Well that's definitely given me a few images in my head

You

I’m currently laying no pants, sports bra only on my couch

Rei

It's late at night, so isn't that like a normal thing to be wearing

You

Only when I’m sexting hot guys

Rei

I wouldn't go that far and say I'm a hot guy

You

You just brought me to completion so 🤷🏼‍♀️

Rei

okay fair enough, I can't argue with that

You

Am I helping still?

Rei

yes, you're helping me a lot and I think you're enjoying it too

[starlight-ascension]

collection of all stars christmas headcanons (these have all been featured on my blog before, from multiple different users, thought i'd compile them in one post)

if you have any ideas feel free to comment 'em

hinata starts hyping in september. everyone tells her not until november. yeah, november, because so many of them start going into christmas mode in early november that everyone's caved in before that month ends

the girls taking Ako, Aguri, and Emiru to the mall to see Santa

Team KiraKira spends three days straight in the kitchen, making enough Christmas cookies to feed an entire village. Seriously, we’ve got over six dozen girls and over three dozen fairies, and some of them eat half their weight in junk food on a regular basis. KiraKira’s gonna be up all night for days, taking shifts for who sleeps and who makes Christmas cookies. They do every recipe in the book and by the time they’re done, they’ve spent tons of money on ingredients which whats-his-name ghost guy fetches (thank goodness Aoi has money to spare, eh?) They also appoint Pikario and Bibury to guard the cookies, so that no one steals from the cooling racks. The fairies and Cures take that as a challenge, and come up with increasingly crazy ways to steal some cookies, which the cookie guards respond with increased security measures to protect the cookies from both other Cures and each other; gotta appoint 2 guards because just one will have no one to stop them from taking all the cookies! it gets to Looney Tunes Heist Movie levels

there's many Christmas movie nights and sometimes on weekends, the girls will watch two or three movies in one night and wind up all falling asleep on top of each other mid-movie. There’s always popcorn with pieces of gingerbread or candy cane in it

Decorating the different teams’ Christmas trees involves every team pitching in, tons of sparkly garlands, bows, glittery ornaments, bells, rainbow lights everywhere because lmao imagine only using one colour for your christmas tree, the tree decked in the team’s motif (i.e. butterflies for team yes!5, clovers for team fresh, flowers for team heartcatch, musical notes for team suite, card suits for team dokidoki, stars for team star twinkle, etc), and flying mascots putting the massive glittery golden star on top

everyone 13 and under puts on a Christmas play for the older ones. Starring Kirara, of course, and complete with musical numbers and precure magic used for special effects/cool costumes. Everyone goes wild at the end

there is a LOT of gay kissing under the mistletoe

Team Suite 100% goes caroling around the city. In costume.

on Christmas Eve, Reika uses her powers to make it snow. she does so while flying above them in Ultra form. people who spot her go "omg i saw a christmas angel" because, well. girl in the sky with white wings and a white feathery dress, a glowing golden halo, and a golden crown. bringing snow.

team heartcatch decorate coppe like a christmas tree

-Inori knows all the secret extra verses to every Christmas carol. The cures who only know the first verse of each song are impressed. 

-speaking of caroling, the girls totally gather around the tree to sing carols. Several fairies who don’t want to sing instead choose to send Mana on a scavenger hunt throughout a dimension of their choice. This is treated like a spy mission that will decide the fate of the world, in the same way sneaking cookies from the cooling rack is treated as a major heist. There’s secret codes involved. 

from just-someone-online, the king/queen/idk what term they prefer of precure headcanons:

Miyuki pulls out all the stops with the Christmas movies. Rudolph, Frosty, everything. Her love of Christmas classics rivals her love for storybooks.

-Setsuna and Yuko teleport the other cures around their respective towns so they can get their shopping done as quickly as possible.

-Mana and Madoka arrange a Secret Santa party for everyone. It turns out to be way more work than either of them expected since there are so figgin many of them.

-Erika, Nozomi, and Hime keep trying to sneak a peek at their gifts. Their respective teams are having a hell of a time keeping them hidden.

-The weather takes a turn for the worse a few days before Christmas so the ice and fire cures work together to keep the roads clear so people can get home safely.

-Yayoi, Mai, and Yui design invitations to the Christmas party. (I know Yui’s not a cure but I feel like they’d invite everyone who knew they were Precure)

-On the day of the party, everyone’s freaking out because they all got a cure that they aren’t overly familiar with (Hikaru got Hikari, Aguri got Nagisa, etc.). Some the gifts end up being right on the money. Others…not so much. Let’s just say Nao didn’t like the ladybug plush as much as Komachi thought she would.

-The MahoPre use their magic to make it snow indoors once they finish with the gift exchange.

-Hugtan and Ai are in little Santa outfits and toddle around giving candy canes to everyone. Everybody gushes about how cute they look.

-On Christmas day, some of the cures track down some of the villains who weren’t reformed and wish them a Merry Christmas. None of them will admit it, but it brightened their day.

from kennycantdecide

- Team Star Twinkle has to take off early to help deliver presents

- Most teams try to join them, but end up getting motion sickness from the ship

- After too many present mishaps, they decide to make it so you get someone from the same color group

- Leads to arguments on color schemes (where does Black and Sunny fit?)

- They all try to have a sleep over at Alice’s manor near Christmas

- Many cures end up sneaking out because they can’t stand watching Christmas movies anymore

- Couples who aren’t officially together yet are always tricked into getting under a mistletoe, and the reactions are varied

- Mai and Yayoi are asked to help design the party decorations

- Erika tries to design Christmas outfits for everyone, but fails because there are so many of them

- The fairies dress like elves, some love it, others despise it

from kiramaipink

-Yuko totally helps KiraKira with the holiday treats!!

-Hana gets so caught up in cheering everyone on with the decorating & baking that Saaya & Homare have to remind her to do her gift shopping

-Ruru & Emiru perform a lil christmas song they wrote together

-Aside from the secret Santa exchange, Mirai, Riko, and Ha-Chan each made little handmade gifts for Mofurun <3

-Hime & Kirara working on styling cute holiday outfits for everyone

-At some point Yukari & Akira sneak away to have a quiet little gift exchange <3

from sunnypokegrapher22

- the ice cures would make a ice palace theme amusment park for the other cures to play in. it aways has a team motif included in the designs. the team motif i decided in a ruffle

flufftober day 1, lost Pet Meet Cute

first time posting flufftober on tumblr ToT, can be read on ao3 under fundmydeath, that's my user :D

pairing: gradient sans/angst sans

gradient wasn't exactly overjoyed at the moment, he had trusted his older sibling pj to watch over his black cat meowmers and pj lost his cat.

how did he lose it?? he left gradients bedroom window open to air out the house. and instead of just shutting the bedroom door and making sure the cat wasn't in there pj just left the door open.so gradient was putting up posters and putting things online as well to see if anyone had seen or even had his cat. it was stressing him out, his own dads couldn't even calm him down and ink could always do that, fresh not so much. error couldn't even help because he was with his spouses at a scientist thing in Germany. that didn't mean error wasn't harassing his friends to force their kids to help gradient, it was known gradient was errors favorite.

so sitting in his living room being forced to take a break by palette gradient heard his phone go off, getting up and grabbing it he saw a text from an unknown number.

unknown: hello this is angst, my mother nightmare is friends with your father error. I've come across the cat you are looking for, I will send an image shortly.

okay, nightmare, gradient wasn't very familiar with her but he knew she was dreams twin sister and was dating swap and ccino, and swap was inks best friend so. gradients phone went off again.

unknown: [image_cat]

unknown: this is your cat correct?

gradient could cry right now

me: yes! it is, thank you so much! do you want me to go over and pick her up? or would you want to come to my house?

unknown: I'll go to you

me: okay! this is my address xxxxxx

unknown: you don't live far from me, I will be there in 25 minutes

gradient quickly put his phone down and ran into the kitchen where pj and palette were. both looking up at gradient when he almost ran into the wall.

“what-”

“MEOWMERS WAS FOUND”

gradient quickly cut off whatever pj was trying to say and threw his hands up in the air. palette immediately started jumping up and down while pj made he way over to gradient and patted his back.

“that's good”

“thank God I thought I was going crazy”

palette also fell over from jumping and pj rushed over to him

“damnit pal”

“sorry sorry!! just so happy!!”

while the three of them finished up talking the doorbell was rung letting out an annoying bird squawk, causing gradients brothers to look at him.

“what the fuck is that doorbell”

“my emotional support doorbell”

gradient stood up and walked over to the door, fixing his green hoodie to look semi presentable.

he opened the door and had to stop himself from slamming it in the person's face, he was so pretty, he had dark brown skin with dyed black-purple hair that was pulled into a braid with multiple smaller braids making up the big braid. he wore a light purple silk button up shirt (who owned stuff like that??) with black slacks and black dress shoes.

the guy held a hand and gradient got the memo to shake his hand, quickly doing it and pulling his hand back.

“Uh, I'm gradient! thank you so so much for finding my cat”

the guy shook his head, angst he said his name was angst when texting you, remember that, don't be like dad.

“it was nothing, she is very well behaved”

angst held out a cat carrier and meowmers was just inside sleeping her little life away.

“didn't even put up a fuss going in the carrier”

gradient took the carrier and smiled brightly at angst

“she's a emotional support animal, plus she helps with my eyes sometimes because I deal with episodes of blurry vision!”

angst gave a nod of his head

“that explains it, it was nice meeting you gradient, I do hope you will keep in contact with me, you make for a wonderful conversation partner”

gradient felt like his face was on fire, God if you are out there strike him down!

“o-of course!”

angst gave another swift nod of his head and walked off, gradient quickly shut the door and slid to the floor.

oh my god,, that was horrible.
