#you become so familiar with them 😢

The European pied flycatchers are back in the birdhouse in my mom’s backyard :)

I've been rereading the "Hanako of Magic" AU from the Halloween special and I honestly didn't understand it. Can you explain? If possible, can you explain in detail about Tsukasa and Hanako in this AU, what I understand is that Tsukasa is a wizard (quite strong) and Hanako seems normal, what do you think? It's just that I didn't understand the final fight scene between Tsukasa against Yashiro and Aoi, that drone appears and it's Amane's and it just ends. Honestly these Aus are very short 😢

In short Nene and Aoi are magicians, Tsukasa taught them a spell to create sweets, and they used it, but they didn't know that this spell turns people into sweets.

After the people were transformed, the girls received help from Natsuhiko (the assistant) to eat the sweets and transform the people back to normal. When an apprentice wizard eats a sweet, the human transforms back to normal, but temporarily falls in love with the person who ate it.

The effect lasts until Halloween.

Nene ate: Teru and Akane Aoi ate: Mei and Amane

Tsukasa is the full wizard, he was the one who taught the girls this magic, he ate the sweet that became Mitsuba. He is a full wizard, because of this, eating a human who has become sweet makes the human become his familiar (and not fall in love with the person who ate the sweet).

Mitsuba became Tsukasa's familiar, which is why he grew wings and horns.

Natsuhiko ate the sweet that would be Kou, Tsukasa made Natsuhiko eat it. Natsuhiko is an assistant, and not a wizard, the side effect is that the human who is eaten by an assistant becomes a wizard.

Kou became a wizard and joined Nene and Aoi.

Wizards hide their identity, that is, only those who are said to be wizards are. So apparently Amane isn't one.

After all, the girls were looking for a sweet that disappeared (the sweet that Tsukasa ate, Mitsuba). Nene found out it was Tsukasa, and asked for him back. Tsukasa said he would only hand over Mitsuba if one of them went with him.

They refused, so Tsukasa was going to "fight" them, when Amane called him for something through that drone. Tsukasa simply listened to Amane and left, but Mitsuba returned and is no longer Tsukasa's Familiar.

In an even greater summary, Tsukasa taught them this spell without talking about its effects, he had fun, ate a sweet, temporarily gained a Familiar, and then, at Amane's request, he left Mitsuba and the girls alone.

The girls tried to make everything normal again, but Kou was the only one who really transformed definitively in the end, becoming a wizard.

It was all a prank by Tsukasa.

Wouldn't trade this for the world

wowee I wrote something 😍😍

Tsym @amorvincitomnia-14 (my lovely wife 💕💕💕) for the request

gn!reader x r!Leo

1,033 words (ik its not a lot, but its good and I like it so suck an egg)

Reader is stressed and overworked so Leo decides to help

No particular warnings, just some fluff <33

"Argh! I *have* the right formula, *why* aren't I getting they right answer??" You groan in frustration. You were on your fourth hour studying- or was it your sixth? Either way, you'd been here a while. The school library was almost becoming a second home to you. Your friend April speaks up, watching as you slump against the table and bury your face in your arms. "Yknow, you don't have to spend *all* your time studying- you could..... Take a break? Eat something? Spend time with people other than your study group and these ancient textbooks? Yknow, normal healthy people stuff?" You sigh, looking up at her from your arms. "I can't take a break. Not with exams right around the corner! If I wanna pass them, I *have* to study." You turn your attention back to the textbook, determined to figure out how to solve this equation. April closes the book. "Your brain can't work under all this stress Y/N. You *need* to rest. Why dont you stop by the lair? Leo won't stop whining about how much he misses you." Hmmmm.... It *had* been a while since you saw your boyfriend- or any of the turtles for that matter. Maybe a break would serve some use... "I'll think about it" you say, reopening the thick heavy book to the right page. April sighs, shaking her head as she grabs her backpack. "Alright then Y/N. See you around." With that, she exits the library. Now its just you, your notes, and a whole lotta studying.

˚⊹♡2 hours later♡⊹˚

God how long have you been here? You're starting to despise that familiar library smell of books and old lady perfume. You look at your phone to check the time. 10:13?? Damn..... You've been here a while.... You set your phone down and lean back in your wildly uncomfortable plastic school chair, exhaling a breath. You should probably go home. You load all your books and notes into your backpack and sling it over one shoulder, before immediately switching it to the other side. Thank you shoulder pain. You slide your phone into your pocket and exit the library out the back. As you step outside, cool air, a nice contrast to the hot stuffy library, hits you in the face as you stand and take a breath. Starting your commute back to your apartment, you put your headphones on and turn on some music. By the time you finally reach home, exhaustion clings to you like a thick heavy cloud. Man, you've been working a lot haven't you? Your phone pings with a text message from Leo; with all the studying, you've barely spent time with him. 💙Leo💙: 'Mi amor, I miss you 😢 Would you be up to hang out?' On one hand, you would *absolutely* like to spend time with him! But on the other, youre exhausted and overworked and just need a nap. You: 'I'm sorry babe 😟 I've been studying for exams all day and I'm just really tired 😞 I promise we'll spend time together at some point though' You send the text, knowing you're about to disappoint the nicest boy in the entire world; but you you're too tired to care. You change into something comfy; sweatpants and a t-shirt you "borrowed" from Leon; and head to the kitchen to get a glass of water. You return to your room, setting the water on your nightstand before climbing into bed and switching off the lamp. You get to sleep for some 30 odd minutes before you're awoken by a knock on your window. You sit up and turn on the light, your eyes taking a moment to adjust to the light. Looking at the window, you see none other than the one and only Neon Leon standing on the fire escape outside your window, waiting to be let in. Somewhat reluctantly, you pull yourself out of the soft warm embrace of bed and blankets to open the window, chilly air blowing in and pricking goosebumps on your arms. "Is that my SIX shirt? Ive been looking everywhere for that" Leo asks as he climbs in, bringing a plastic grocery bag in with him. "Thought I told you I was too tired to hang out" you say as you shut the window. "Youre dodging the question" he teases; "And I figured if youre too tired to come and spend time with yours truly, id come and be tired with you." He smiles at you, setting the bag on the bed and digging through it. "I got your favorite snacks, candies, that tea you like, and I even nabbed Donnie's laptop so we can watch something! And if you're not up for watching a movie, we can just sleep together. Well not *sleep together* sleep together- like- snuggling and napping together- yknow?" You can help but chuckle at him. He's such a dorky loser; but at least he's *your* dorky loser. You hug him, burying your fave in his neck to take in that familiar scent of peppermint sticks and black cherry merlot soap. "You're so amazing," you say, kissing his cheek and stepping back to look at him; "And it is your shirt" You smile cheekily as he scunches his nose and squints at you. "Why you little- that's my favorite shirt!" He says in faux outrage, bringing in the dramatics (something he's rather good at). "Thats why I took it. You wear it the most, so it smells like you" Leo can't help but blush. "You like my smell?" "Course I do. Makes me feel like I'm with you, even when I'm not." He wraps you in a hug, planting a sweet kiss to your lips. "Well I'm here now mi amor"

˚⊹♡-♡⊹˚

The rest of the night is spent lying in bed with Leo, sipping raspberry tea, and watching the Great British Bake Off. You eventually end up falling asleep cuddled up next to him with his arm wrapped around you, holding you close in a warm embrace and god were you lucky to have a boyfriend like him. As you lay sleeping next to him, you know you wouldn't trade this for the world.

In an au where Coriolanus is president and looking for his ex-girlfriend:

Coriolanus running to hug Lucy Gray: Lucy Gray❤️ my love, where were you?

Lucy Gray tied to a chair after being taken from her idyllic home in the woods by violent peacekeepers: What do you want now, you narcissistic, murderous asshole🤬?

Coriolanus😭: Why do you treat me like this my singing bird, I just want you to love me?

Lucy Gray😡: You tried to hunt me in that forest as if I were an animal, you betrayed your best friend causing his execution and let's not forget the countless atrocities your government commits.

Coriolanus😧😃: That was because you dared to end me through snake mail🐍, Sejanus was for the welfare of the nation😇, the same as the other sacrifices I had to make, so as your president 😎 I demand your gratitude and affection.

Lucy Gray 🤬: Fuck you Coriolanus, I would never share a zoo cage with you again.

Coriolanus 🥺: You're rejecting me, well I'll have to send multicolored adult snakes the size of a person to the next tributes of district 12 again. Do you remember them are the same ones that I threw your handkerchief to so that they would become familiar with your sweet scent? That's why I had to be a peacemaker in that horrible district.

Lucy Gray😰: Coryo... They're just kids... You can't do that...

Coriolanus🤔: What would sweet Maude Ivory be if she were harvested? Or Del Covey if a mysterious bomb went off in her house?

Lucy Gray😡: Don't mess around like my family, BITCH.

Coriolanus😌: What if all the mines in the 12th district are closed along with the black market? After all we count on District 5 for power.

Lucy Gray😭: Coriolanus please stop, they are innocent people and the 12th district was never my home, I was just trapped there by the war.

Coriolanus😈: And do not think that I will allow you to abandon me again, I will throw you in a cell in the prison of the presidential mansion in front of a huge television screen where you will see how people suffer because of you, until you are begging to be my girlfriend again.

Lucy Gray: You're married!

Coriolanus😒: Yes with Livia but I haven't seen her since our arranged wedding. So if you come back with me I'll give you all the first lady rooms and let you sing in the Pluribus culb, but if you need more time to think about it I respect that and I'll cut the food budget for District 12.

Lucy Gray 😭: It's okay Coriolanus I'll do what you want but don't hurt anyone.

Coriolanus👿: Is that all you have to tell me after so many years? After I send my best men away from the cover of civilization? After poisoning the entire cabinet to find you? After putting aside my busy schedule to see you? Officer execute order 66 in the district...!

Lucy Gray 😭🥺: Wait Coryo my love, I love you, you are a sweet cake with cream and as pure as freshly fallen snow Do you want to be my boyfriend again?

Coriolanus 😢: That was so sweet but it's not enough 👿 officer execute...

Lucy Gray 😫: I'm yours, only yours!

Coriolanus 😳: Really? I own you?

Lucy Gray 😭😫: If Coryo you are my owner, I belong to you just as you belong to me, it is written in the stars. Do you remember?

Coriolanus😍: Yes! 😏 Prove it.

Lucy Gray gives him the most passionate kiss of her life.

Coriolanus😍: Perfect my love (He proceeds to untie her but places a golden slave collar around her neck that will warn her if she leaves the presidential mansion without permission) now let's take a bath together like in the old days and then we go to my room to get catch up on my bed, then you have to prepare for your interview with Lucky Flickerman for your return and your duties as a mentor to the District 12 tributes.

Lucy Gray proceeds to cry uncontrollably as Coriolanus hugs her, comforts her, and inadvertently injects her with some kind of aphrodisiac.

Hi! I’ve been an elo fan for a while but I’m not really familiar with any of the band members except for jeff lynne because i always thought the rest were coming and going. Can you give me a little intro to the band like who are considered the main band members? Thanks!

AHHHHHHH thank you for asking this omgggggg!! (Also, as a side note, I actually sent another blogger an ask just like this a year ago when I was getting more into the band, so this is a very surreal moment to see that now people are asking ME???!!!!!)

I will begin with Roy Wood.

ELO was the brain child of Roy primarily, and he and Jeff were the driving creative force of the band at the start. Just like Jeff, he knows how to play 47309478193 different instruments, and on his solo work he did practically everything himself. He's a cool guy with awesome crazy hair and awesome fashion sense. But he left the band very early on (after about a year I think) to form a different band called Wizzard.

Now, there are tons of different guys who were members of ELO over the years, but to keep this from becoming super long and complicated, I will now stick to the rest of the Magnificent Seven. This is the longest running line-up of ELO, and the seven of them were together for a lot of the band's most successful period. This line-up was:

Jeff Lynne: guitar, vocals, writer, producer, etc., you know his deal already haha Bev Bevan: drums Richard Tandy: keyboards Kelly Groucutt: bass Mik Kaminski: violin Melvyn Gale: cello Hugh McDowell: cello

Now the fun part! (Well, fun for me at least haha.)

Bev Bevan:

Bev is the gorgeous smashy drummer with big biceps and a terrifyingly deep voice. He founded the band with Jeff and Roy and was with ELO till 1986. He's very opposite to Jeff in many ways (and pulled lots of pranks on Jeff haha). While Jeff loves working in the studio, Bev loves playing live and going on tour - so much so that after Jeff called it quits for the band in 1986, Bev started up another band called ELO Part II with a few of the other members so he could keep things going (which unfortunately ruffled feathers with Jeff quite badly and essentially ended their friendship 😢😢).

Richard Tandy:

Richard is the very-talented keyboard player who joined very soon after the band began - and he is still an official member to this day!!! Unfortunately he only has small roles on the Jeff Lynne's ELO albums now and he doesn't play live much because of health issues, but he and Jeff are still very close. He is a very focused, serious man when it comes to music. I believe I read that he would lock himself away for hours to learn some challenging pieces of music, and he was the only member of the band to actually take sound checks seriously at their shows haha. Also he's really into films and sports.

Kelly Groucutt:

KELLY MY BELOVED!! He is my favorite hehe. The awesome sweetheart bass player who, fun fact, was actually named Michael. But during the early years of ELO, they had lots of Michaels, so they asked Kelly to pick a different name so it would be less confusing haha, and he went by Kelly ever since. He also sang lots of backup vocals, plus occasional lead vocals (check out Poker to hear his voice, he sang that whole song double-tracked). He was very outgoing and goofy, made tons of silly jokes, couldn't sit still, and was a huge chatterbox. I could say tons more on him but I will hold back haha. He was also in ELO Part II with Bev, but Kelly unfortunately passed away in 2009.

Mik Kaminski:

Mik is the adorable boy on the iconic blue violin. He's a very shy boy, but he still loves touring and performing for the fans. He also loooooves gambling and drinking haha. Also he is another of the Michaels lmao. After ELO ended in the 80s, Mik and Kelly made their own band called Orkestra, then later both joined ELO Part II. And after Bev left ELO Part II, the band changed their name to The Orchestra, and Mik is still playing with them to this day!

Melvyn Gale:

Melvyn is the angel on cello. It took him a while to join the group (he was asked to join multiple times but kept recommending other cellists instead haha), but they finally got him! He is apparently also very chatty, and quite the charmer with the ladies. And in addition to cello, he's also a phenomenal pianist (the epic piano solo in Wild West Hero is him). After his time in ELO ended he ran (or at least worked at) a record manufacturing company for a while, and he is currently teaching cello and piano lessons!

Hugh McDowell:

And Hugh is the demon on cello ahaha. He is fucking crazy and I love him for it. He joined ELO very early on, then left with Roy Wood to be in Wizzard, then came back to ELO. He stole the show in all the live performances, jumping around, spinning/throwing his cello, hair flying in his face. He rocks hard. He's just wild all-around. He apparently got kicked out of school for telling a teacher to fuck off because the teacher wouldn't let him play the music the way he wanted or something. He also once broke down his hotel room door when he lost the key haha. Though he was also known to always have his face buried in a book - he loved to read. He unfortunately passed away in 2018.

And that concludes my not-so-brief introduction to the band!! Thank you for the ask!!!!!!! <3

[the-kittylorian-writes]

just watched season 3 of the mandalorian for the first time with my little brother, and boy ragnar and his dad made me so sad. can you imagine waiting for your dad to come home and then finding out through a hologram that he’s gone?? but one of your fics really made me think. how do the parents of deceased foundlings feel?? how can they handle the loss? a parents death is one thing, a foundling can honor them and become bigger than they were. but their child? if paz had lost ragnar, that would’ve killed him. so maybe it’s good that paz died over ragnar.

Hello!! ☺️💙 Thank you for sharing your insights and it tickles me pink that one of my fics made you ponder over certain things!

And—oh my!! Yep, I’ve developed a soft spot for the Vizsla clan of two, that it had quite devastated me when Paz was unalived (as far as we know… tbh Paz not having a funeral in the finale seemed like something deliberate, leaving things open-ended! I myself am delulu ahem I mean hopeful that Paz may still be alive—bacta tanks exist 😋—but half of my mind is convincing me that no one could’ve survived the hits Paz had gone through. 😢😢

(Thus the hard cope in some of my fics 😅)

But you do have a point. If you’re familiar with “The Lord of the Rings,” a character named Theoden lost his son in a skirmish. There’s a scene in the film “The Two Towers” where he stands in front of his son’s grave weeping as he says, “No parent should have to bury their child.” And it broke my stone cold heart. 🫠❤️‍🩹 Imagine our dear ol’ Paz weeping for Ragnar like that?!? For sure he’ll never ever be the same. 😭

It’s just as life-shattering for a kid, however… but if Ragnar is indeed as Vizsla as he can get, even if he were adopted (he’s referred to as “foundling” so this is what I concluded), he would have the strength to carry on. Which reminds me… I have to get on with one of my fics which has Ragnar dealing with his father’s “non-presence” (won’t get into much detail hehe don’t wanna spoil if you haven’t read it yet; it’s entitled “In Dreams, We Wake” 💙) in his formative teen years.

I really appreciate you reaching out on this matter! 😍 Really, I can yap on and on over how much I love Paz’s and Ragnar’s characters lolol… even if Ragnar has had one of the shortest screen times in Mando s3. His character is bursting with potential. (And I still wish we get some closure on Paz… if he really died or not. Truthfully I’m okay either way, as long as the storytelling going forward is as stellar as “The Bad Batch” season 3. 🥺🙌🏼)

[shipcestuous-two]

~beware 🤓 long ask below~

OMMFG HAVE U SEEN:

"my siblings romance"

It's a Reality Show where siblings

(4 brothers & 4 sisters)

work together to find the perfect match for each other but the catch is they have to act like they don't know each other when they're in the house

(all 8 people r living together& they have a siblings room to chat in&other ways to connect/talk to each other)

There is literally every single brother sister dynamic you can think of

(devoted brother, devoted sister, brothersister who annoy each other but in times of need r there for each other, brother sister who have only had themselves to depend on, younger bro older sis, older bro younger sis etc..)

It's like a feast of every trope I love in fiction but in real life, I recommend it just for how precious all of their bonds are

6 episodes have aired so far&I am hooooooked.

I could care less about who ends up with who because the main thing that is carrying this show on its back is the love each sibling has for the other.

It's also fun watching their interactions back when the show tells u who's related to who

(it's never revealed to the contestants in the show but we aka the viewer get to find out)

&post reveal to us the viewers, it's fun just watching them putting on their best actor faces so no one in the house catches on.

I think what makes it that much sweeter is that the only familiar face in a house of unfamiliar people is their sibling, so they have someone who has their back there with them.

They also have solo confessionals&the things that come out of each siblings mouth about their counterpart are so adorable if you don't say awwwwwwww 30 minutes into episode 1 ur pants will catch immediately on fire.

I'm very rarely into real life shipping so I basically checked it out, out of curiosity because I saw a tiktok that was a short clip from the show of two siblings talking&I thought the scene was cute

&now 6 episodes in I ship all the siblings with each other&each ship has become my new obsession.

________

Ways to watch it:

° viki app (but it's only available on there with viki plus pass)

°&If ur okay with sailing the high seas ⛵

Here's a link to watch all 6 eps:

https://kissasian.fit/my-siblings-romance-2/

_______

Please watch it so I can have someone else obsessing over this show with me 😢😂 pretty please with sugar on top

the season will have 16 episodes I think? So u can get caught up quick, (I will sculpt a statue in ur honor if u watch this 😞 ppppppplllllllease 🙌)

Thanks so much for the description for the show and the link to where to watch it. It sounds so sweet and so shippable. Plus I'm sure a lot of the matches, as often happens with reality TV, won't work out. But we know the sibling relationships will last forever.

I can't make any promises about watching it, hopefully this post will have piqued the interest of some of my followers. It sounds like there's lots to chat about and lots more to come.

[masterqwertster]

😇 would love to know about ashton’s whole deal with the beacon at the key in the accidental ascension au and maybe what happens with mister after everything goes down! Does The Monkey Become More Powerful

AND. 📚 anything about orym in secret library! i love that au it’s so fun. somehow it gives me hellboy vibes if you’ve ever seen that movie or read the comics?

Prompt

😇 Honestly, it's mostly plot convenience with reasonable justification hiding under the hood.

Beacons are wells of dunamancy, the magic of potential and possibility. And potential and possibility sound like just the right ingredients for ascension. Especially when you add the power of a leyline nexus to boost effects.

But Bells Hells knows nothing about the Beacons, to the point Ashley wouldn't justify Fearne using her Stonky's Ring to pull the Beacon, even though it was a shiny artifact in the Key revealed by Liliana's actions for Ludinus and they knew shiny artifacts in a Malleus Key act as a core that can be removed to stop them.

BH's lack of knowledge is ironic, though, when Ashton is his own personal Beacon.

The other thing going on is that, by Kryn Dynasty lore, the Luxon wants to be reassembled. So I feel that it makes sense for someone as deeply marked by the Luxon as Ashton to feel drawn to the Beacons, to feel a little connected to them. And it’s Ashton’s first time getting in close to a Beacon, plus they're a barbarian used to listening to their instincts, so he didn't really think too hard about going after that feeling and grabbing the shiny artifact.

The the rest is just a resonance between the Beacon and Ashton’s Beacon-like galaxy brain.

😇 Seeing as familiars exist in a form of symbiosis with their summoner: Yes, the Monkey does Become More Powerful. Especially since wildfire spirits in particular get stronger/offer more boosts the higher the druid's level

📚 I have seen the movies (it's been awhile~) but not read the comics. Though I can kinda see your point. Supernatural protection committee hidden in a public services building.

Anyways.

As a normal human, Orym can’t druidcraft (sad, I know😢). So instead he's got the greenest thumb.

Like, the original reason Orym transferred to the Jrusar branch of the Secret Library was to take over tending their greenhouse of magical plants. He ended up also taking Bertrand's Field Leader position after Bert passed because he was qualified and did mainly fieldwork in pretty much every other branch he's worked in.

Furthermore, Orym will cover any flat surface that is his to decorate with potted flowers/plants. So his room/home is covered in green. So is his office. He's added potted herbs to the Library kitchen and scattered succulents around the study areas. He even recruited Fearne and Ashton's help to stick a few low-maintenance plants in Eshteross's office to liven things up.

Orym's just a "plants and flowers are love" kind of guy

[thebirdqueen]

I've been thinking of a SMTV AU for a while now. Gonna share this WIP of an idea because I need to let it out. (Also I was talking with someone about it a small bit)

It's about the NG+ options. Reborn and Newborn. Any normal person wouldn't think much of it besides it being a cool theme way to play a game again. But I'm NOT a normal damn person and decided to run with this very angsty idea. [Its mainly a food for thought AU] Warning though. It's not well done-

When you completed a certain route, you get a colored ball thing show up on your safe file. They're in order from light blue (Law), white (Neutral), red (Chaos) and a star like white ball (True Neutral.) No matter what route you do first, it will always show up in this order. So what this has to do with the NG+ thing is that what if this is how V-kun approached every new rebirth. That's where the NG+ thing comes in.

He finishes a Law route. I don't have a solid reason why yet but maybe he did it to become a God of Order so that he could revive his friends and shape himself into someone better. (Like he lost a lot of himself the first time. The trauma of losing your friends, the fact that they were almost alone with themselves on this besides Aogami and just the PTSD he probably has thanks to Da'at.) He wanted to be better. Beating himself up for not saving them sooner. But instead of becoming a God of Law, he gets swallowed up by this mysterious darkness(?.) Only to come back as human V-kun. But you see, the first time this happens, he doesn't realise this.

It's basically a Newborn version of V-Kun. (A very Newborn one) He basically dosen't have any kind memories. At least not at first. Around the end of Act 2 (aka Tao's death,) he again experiences this trauma. But the feeling feels familiar suddenly. He would have a few random "flashbacks" of events and stuff at first but he chalked it up to it being Aogamis broken hardware in the beginning. But after her death, he starts to question them more. Questions why these feel familiar. Why he feels like he could have changed something.

This confusion would change his path. He leaned more to Neutral. (Idk what reason again but probably because he has some trust to Nuwa [not so much Yakumo.] He maybe thought they were sensible enough?) The confusion comes up more frequently. So much that it even "distorts" his world view just a little bit. (The changes are happening...) At the throne, he destroys the throne not only for Nuwa and Yakumo, but out of a weird frustration. A hatred of these demons and angel's that took his friends away. . . . I'll have to work on how the Chaos and True Neutral paths are gonna work but that's gonna be hard to think and write some ideas about. I'll be adding on to this soon I hope! Also sorry if the writing is horrible and weird in some parts. I'm an artist not a writer 😢 (I'm also horrible at spelling)

hello, i hope you’re doing fine! just read the new chapter of sith and came to banter about it again!!

- i’ve always wondered how colt felt about his little brother being a warrior candidate and i’m so glad you chose to touch on it in this chapter! of course, he would be upset but i also find myself thinking like was he angry or maybe disappointed in marley? because i’m pretty sure that in the first place he thought that him becoming a candidate would be enough to fix his family’s reputation and when he found out that that wasn’t the case, he must’ve been disappointed. it’s so sad to think that the moment colt was born, he kind of became the “savior” of the family and even though i’m sure that his parents love him and everything, they probably saw him as some kind of “pawn” to save themselves. i can imagine colt not wanting the same fate for his baby brother but not being able to do anything about it must be infuriating as hell. i’m sorry i just can’t help but feel awful about colt’s position in his parents’ lives🥲

- i truly enjoyed some heartwarming moments with y/n’s parents in this chapter, it was just so sweet🥺🥺 and we can now see that her mom is starting to get used to colt’s presence in her life, hopefully she’ll warm up to him a bit more!

- i must admit that nursery rhyme was so clever on your part. anyone who deals with some sort of anxiety knows the urgency to indulge into something familiar. y/n having a comfort rhythm hits too close to home.

- MY FAVORITE PART in the entire chapter was the banter between our fav trio😭 I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH. when they were talking about falco having a crush on gabi and friedrich coughing knowingly?? i died, that was soooooo funny. following that colt talking about cordelia and friedrich almost choking?? sooooo funny😭 and when y/n said that she would prefer spending her days with two of them even if she were a queen… i melted. i just want to protect them at all costs

- i absolutely loved your descriptions of the little warrior candidates, they were PERFECT. i was smiling the whole time i was reading that part. “a devilish grin compared to falco’s angelic frown” is a perfect way to describe gabi! gabi and falco truly compliment each other because they are literally the opposite. why are the grice boys so sweet😭 y/n mistaking gabi for alice was so fucking sad… my mood went down immediately after reading that.

to be honest, this was one of my favorite recent chapters! after the athyaen war, everything got a bit darker and i’m sure that it’s going to get even more darker, and i’m not complaining! but i just loved reading some light stuff and y/n being with her favorite people in the world and showing affection🥰 i also must say that i love your writing. the dialogues, the descriptions… it’s easy to read but descriptive when necessary. another amazing chapter🥰

HII!! I’m doing well. Or at least as well as I can considering it’s winter and I hate the cold 😭 but I love banter so I was happy to get another long ask :)

- colt’s relationship with his family always makes me so sad because like he really has had no other choice and he’s just so kind that he doesn’t even complain, he genuinely wants to save them (esp falco) and the fact that he can’t protect falco from being a candidate while knowing what the candidates go through is so hard for him. and i agree with what you said about his parents!! i actually think it was mentioned somewhere in the first chapter of sith let me find it

“This isn’t news to them. They’ve always been more hands-off with me; I’m their sacrificial lamb, remember? Falco’s the one they really care about; though, to be fair, it’s almost impossible to not care about Falco. Anyways, as I was saying, they’ve had years to prepare for this day. I promise you, they’re not upset about any of this,” he said.

that was when they were waiting to hear about who got into the candidacy program and y/n was telling her father to stop crying lol simpler times 😢 but yes although colt’s parents don’t dislike him and certainly love him, they’ve always kind of been resigned to his eventual death so they were just never as close with him as y/n’s parents are with her if that makes sense.

- speaking of her parents, i’m glad you like them!! i didn’t want to go the typical dead/absent parent route that’s so common in fics, but i wanted them to be realistic, too. i try to make them have typical human reactions to things like their daughter not coming home when she said she would, although at the same time, y/n isn’t exactly a typical kid, she’s a highly trained soldier, which is hard for her parents to balance. honestly i feel so bad for them because they deserve better…then again who doesn’t in this fic HAHAHA

- thank you!! i wanted to show that she’s doing her best to find coping mechanisms, and even if they’re not foolproof, they help at least a little. slowly but surely she’s finding a new sort of normal which is super important i think. this arc (which is actually almost finished!) and the next are mostly about the trio recovering from athyae so there’ll be a lot of finding little things that help them get through each day. i think a lot of the time the lasting impacts of things like war are glossed over in fiction and for some stories it works but ship in the harbor is one where i really want to show the effects it has on the characters! although there’s a lot of plot in the story, it’s also very internal/character focused, so i thought it didn’t make sense for y/n to do what she did in athyae and just bounce back immediately and be perfectly fine yk?? which is why there’s literally going to be ten chapters of just her mental state improving (amongst other things ofc)

- HAHAHA I MISSED THE TRIO TBH!! the three of them haven’t been together for a while, and the last time was on the train from athyae to liberio so y/n was in a VERY different headspace — it was immediately after her mirror-destroying mental breakdown LMAOO so there was minimal room for banter there. but they’re back with a vengeance now and thank goodness 😭 FRIEDRICH IS GENUINELY MY FAV CHARACTER EVER i think the way he’s the biggest y/n x colt shipper while simultaneously being totally in love with y/n is the funniest thing. the scenes with him and colt together are so much fun to write because they feed off of each other in such a strange way. honestly i think that the only time the boys act their ages is when they’re together which is so personal to me 😩 they really are best friends!! AND THEN YOU ADD IN Y/N AND IT’S JUST EVERY EMOTION POSSIBLE UGH I LOVE THEM TOO (but that won’t stop me from making them suffer)

- the little warrior candidates are so cute tbh!! i had a lot of fun describing them. even just through their looks i think you can tell a lot about their personalities! and i realized the alice/gabi parallels while writing and it made me so upset 😐 and the way alice was always jealous of y/n and now gabi idolizes her for being the “hero of athyae”…also the way y/n literally hates how she was in athyae and now she’s famous for it KILLS ME like no one is ever going to let her forget about it because they all think it’s so badass that she literally took down an entire country. meanwhile every time someone mentions athyae she gets actual flashbacks and has to leave 😭

- THE GRICES ARE THE SWEETEST BOYS EVER i think it was so funny when gabi was kind of shit talking colt and he was just like 😊 the entire time. canonically (i think it was mentioned as a fun fact at some point? which i just realized i didn’t do one for this chapter lol rip) all three of the trio are good with children but i think colt LIKES kids the most. he’d be such a good father one day ugh what a shame isayama killed him off 😒 keeping it undercover whether i’ll go the canon route w him or not 😁

this chapter felt like a breath of fresh air after everything w athyae and it was nice to write! i think that the impact of the more angsty/darker scenes is lessened when there’s no happiness to balance it out. for example — to me at least — hadrian and y/n’s ending was so much worse because we saw how happy she was with the amatas. that’s why i like showing occasional moments of happiness and lightheartedness with the trio!! it just makes it hurt more to read while knowing what’s to come 😈 and yes sith will get dark again soon (about six chapters from now, so the remaining chapter of this arc and then all of the next arc), but for now it should be pretty relaxing — more chapters like this one! because we all need time to decompress and recover from the entire defeat of athyae arc. also there just really won’t be many more “downtime” chapters after the next arc so i’m putting it all in now so that i don’t feel as bad about pretty much solely causing the trio trauma for like 65 chapters straight

AHH i’m so happy to hear you like my writing style! sith has been my longest ongoing story so it’s seen a huge evolution in my style, and i’m sure as i continue to write it will continue to evolve (we’re only about a quarter of the way through the story so it’ll definitely be some time before it’s finished which leaves plenty of room for development and improvement) the difference between the beginning and latest/ending chapters of the story will only grow, but i’m pretty happy with my style atm. i don’t like sounding pretentious or poetic for the sake of sounding poetic if that makes sense?? like i think some writers focus more on how pretty a sentence sounds instead of how functional it is, and although i do love pretty sentences, i think it’s important to also have them make sense and be comprehensible. i also love writing dialogue haha i think that’s what i get complimented on the most!! it’s just very fun for me to imagine entire conversations in my head…tbh sometimes writing dialogue feels more like i’m just transcribing what the characters are saying more than i am making something entirely knew up as weird as that sounds HAHA. but i’m glad you liked the chapter and thank you for reading!!

I feel like these stories are all too known. It is a type of story some of us have heard about in our childhood years, and they happen so often that they become familiar as if childhood is not complete without them. I wasn't sure what to expect when I was given a copy to read. I remember reading it and recalling my childhood streets, walking to school, believing that you are safe when you aren't. Some are close to being raped, others were raped, and both scenarios are hunting and staying with the victims 😢 💔 A hard digest, explicit, and hunting This story is familiar. It is the story of a girl, a girl we all know, heard about. Click the link for a copy.

🦅Being Shiratorizawa's Manager🦅

🎉Celebrating Their Manager's 🎉

💜Bulimia Recover Journey 💜

Shiratorizawa x Gender Neutral manager

Warnings: discussions of eating disorders, probably Swearing

AN: This is an Anon request! I did a small set of headcannons I'll link here! I'm not super familiar with Bulimia and/or other eating disorders but I did do some research 🙂

What a year it's been YN 😍

Seriously you've come so far

You've gotten yourself help and are now on your recovery journey

Part of your recovery journey included finding a distraction 👀

And oh dear lord did you ever find one 😅

A distraction in the form a a team of stoic birdies 🦅

SHIRATORIZAWA 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

There is no changing me 🤣

Anyways, it's been a wild ride

You've been battling your own fight along with helping the team their struggles to get to nationals

You've stayed late helping Goshiki make sure his line shots were right on the line

You kept up with Tendo and his chaotic blocks

You make sure Ushiwaka didn't put too many dents in the gym floor from his powerful serves

You helped Shirabu become a better setter

You discussed strategy with Semi and Reon

You made Kawanishi come to practice 😅

You even helped Yamagata with his receives

Many days you left with volleyball 🏐 size bruises

But it was totally worth it 🥰

The pride and strength the team gave you was immeasurable

Nobody knew about your journey

Heck it wasn't like bring up an eating disorder was just casual conversation

It wasn't easy to talk about

You had been through so much YN

God I love you YN 😭😭😭

But every single day you got stronger

Eating wad always a challenge for you

But eith the proper help, your relationship with food was healing

You rarely ate around others still just because it was hard for you

But that's OK YN, one step at a time

So it wad a big deal when the third years invited you to join them for a dinner to honor them leaving 🥺

The dinner just happened to coincide with your 1 year sobriety anniversary

God imma cry again 😢

You were nervous

A year into your journey and this was going to be your biggest test

But you had prepared for this

And the first step in preparing is being open and honest

First we start with everyone but Tendo 😅

Not that Tendo isn't supportive but the mans is going to almost be too supportive?

Start with Semi

Semi and/or Reon are the safest options here

So you approach them and tell them

"So about the dinner tonight..." 😬

Sharing your story might cause you some tears but don't worry, Semi and Reon are top notch supporters

They will ask questions but like respectful questions

More to understand

Also take Semi with you when you tell Ushi ✋️

Please Ushiwaka is so clueless 🙄

Like he isn't mean but like mans can sometimes be a little... direct? Blunt?

You know this YN but still we need support

You tell Ushiwaka and he is just like 🧍‍♂️ 😐 "ok"

The fact that you got an "ok" is good YN

Semi is honestky shocked he said anything

When you tell Tendo, he's going to be like

👁👄👁

"But YN you're beautiful 🥺"

"Thanks Tendo, I'm learning to love myself" 🥰

Please he's so supportive it's almost crushing 😅

Does a Google search before you arrive at the restaurant

"Hey YN, did you know the awareness color for Bulimia is purple? That's why I wore a purple tie tonight!"- Tendo ���

"It looks very nice Tendo I appreciate the support" -you

The restaurant is daunting but you can do this

Semi and Reon are kind of unsure how to handle it

Yamagata is like "imma eat ✌🏻 "

Tendo is like 👀

Ushiwaka asks you if you need help at the buffet carrying your plate 😭

Please he's so precious YN take him up on his offer

Semi holds you hand and you go up together

You've got this YN

When you sit down, food in front of you, the guys are already eating

Please they are giants and act like they are starving

You slowly enjoy your food

I'm so proud 🥺

Now is the time to tell them that it's your 1 year anniversary

You didn't want to take away from their celebration

But what better way for you to celebrate then wirn your friends 🥺

"Guys-"

They all stop eating and stare 😳

"Umm- I just wanted to tell you that I appreciate all your support. I've been on this journey for a year now and you guys have helped me more than I can ever say"

"A year?"- Semi

"Yes- actually a year... today"- you 🙂

"A year... today??"- Yamagata

"HAPPY ANNIVERSARY YN"- Tendo 🎉🎈

Semi is like 🤦‍♂️

"Aren't we suppose to give YN paper for her first anniversary?"- Tendo

"We could give her a napkin"- Ushiwaka

"She's not married!"- Reon

"How about a napkin that says 'You Are The Best YN Love Tendo'"- Tendo

He's already writing it

You are dying laughing 🤣🤣🤣

Reon has walked away because he's done

Semi just accepts it going to happen

Tendo gives you the paper and he's so proud

It makes you cry 😭

After the meal and you leave, Tendo totally hugs you

Semi tells you how awesome it was that you came out with them

Tendo says they need to do it again

Ushi says they are graduating

You and Tendo cry 😭

Reon consoles you

Semi is suck with Tendo 😅

Ushi just stands there 🧍‍♂️

It's been a long journey YN but you have your amazing boys at your side to help every step of the way 🥰

#ONEPIECE1031

Are we ready? No we're not.

After last week's chapter and the conflicting emotions everyone had regarding how they felt about it, Oda drops this... this amazing chapter that makes me kind of want to hit him because... well you'll see why.

The chapter this week is called 'Soldier of Science' (this is Sanji's cry for help, SOS.)

We start off immediately with the aftermath of Law and Kid's combined attack from the awakenings, and everyone thinking Big Mom is "finally down" (obviously not)

A stronger Big Mom, is an ever bigger Big Mom... anyways. Their attacks definitely affected her because she clearly states that this is the first time in decades she's felt pain like this (which is insane, and says a lot about that combined attack) but I'm happy Oda gave her a scene like that (especially the first panel of getting up) because a lot of one piece fans often forget just how strong Big Mom really is. They downplay her a lot (as if she doesn't casually go head to head with Kaido)

A panel I especially liked:

"I'll show you what it means to be an emperor."

An interesting point is also Law mentioning not being able to "uncover true history" if he can't take her down - which is further proving the point that Law's ambition isn't to become the Pirate King, but similarly to Robin, uncover history - but Law wants to do it (probably!!) to understand the Will of D.

Before we move on to the crazy parts of this chapter - these three 'numbers' that were shown next to Apoo in the last chapter... look awfully familiar.

(first panel from chapter 1024, and the second one from chapter 1030)

It explains the 'mystery' surrounding them and also their uncanny resemblance... It would be interesting to see what would happen, and also why they're numbers now... It also explains one of their reactions to Yamato popping in, in this chapter:

Okay! Now we get to the completely insane part...

First of all - Sanji. Sanji, and his steadfast morals. Sanji and his 'I-will-never-hit-a-woman-in-my-life". Sanji, and choosing to get beaten up but not raising his hands on a woman ever, something that has stuck to him since we first got introduced to him, something we have never seen him ignore or forget. Yes. That Sanji.

(happens from left to right)

That Sanji. Who lost control over his body and his mind, blacked out and hit this random girl, making her bleed. Oda just,,, loves never letting Sanji breathe. This man has been suffering his entire life, why can't he just rest 😢.

One of my absolute favorite moments in this chapter, is Sanji's monologue about the suit, about his powers, about Germa, and firstly mentioned, about Luffy.

A version of him who could 'easily take down Queen' with the help of the raid suit? He says 'even a beast like this, would be easy to dismember'.

'What kind of person does the pirate king need by his side...?'

'I'm not sure of the answer but...

And then finally, finally, he breaks it.

Because Sanji does not need the suit to be strong, or to defeat Queen. Of course the suit already made his body chance, but him breaking the suit was him trying to break his shackles from Germa - hopefully now he can find a solution to his body, because that hasn't happened yet either (do we have to wait til after the war? I will literally explode)

And of course (of course :)) we can't leave it at that! No! We have to add an element let-me-break-some-more-people's-hearts and have Sanji hold a conversation with Zoro about

you guessed it

Zoro "putting him down" if he can't control himself after the war... So this is the why. The why I WANT TO KINDLY JUST PUNCH ODA HOW MUCH MORE SUFFERING WILL YOU MAKE THIS MAN GO THROUGH?

I am: suffering. You better not die period. You better not suffer. you better not get hurt, actually what should happen is you just being happy, and carefree and just. Why?

We end the chapter off with Hell Memories that we haven't seen in a long time (since Fishman Island?). Also, break next week.

This was a rollercoaster of emotions, further cementing that Sanji is one of the best written characters in this show, and his character development and story just will not stop getting better. If something happens to Sanji I will officially sue Oda for 10 years of my life.

Distorted Lines - Part 3 - Final

College fun - mini series, alcohol, kind of drunk sex, f!oral, cheating if you squint. I had fun finishing this.

All, I'm so sorry it took so long to get this out - work has become so hectic and I barely have time to myself. 😢 Adulting sucks, thanks for sticking with me. ❤

Part 3 - Crystalline Desire

It’s been a month since you last talked to him - the nights were long and the days passed with a blink of your eye. A desolate home awaited you, half the time you expected to see him standing by your doorway with that shit eating grin of his, but instead you were greeted by an overwhelming sense of dread. Your mutuals suspected something must have happened between you four as they impugned you for the truth or the ‘tea’. Kazutora and Chifuyu made amends with Baji, but he refused to talk to you and you weren’t going to give in again. Two stubborn jackasses that just don’t know when to quit. I wonder if he'll cave in first… You think to yourself when you throw yourself on the bed - face first into the soft pillows, closing your eyes and remembering the day the lines became blurred.

***A month ago***

Your body froze and your heart began to beat out of your chest, “(Y/N), were you expecting someone…else…” Baji’s words trailed off when he saw a male figure dart towards your bedroom, he couldn’t tell who it was as the man was quick on his feet and also had a couch pillow covering their face. “Who the hell was that?” Baji’s tone was laced with suspicion, it’s not like you to hide your playthings from them and if anything, the worried look on your face was a giant red flag for him. Seeing the bruising on your lip, the bite marks and hickies on your neck, he thought that the son of bitch who ran was possibly hurting you. Without warning Baji walked into your apartment and towards your bedroom. “Stop, what the hell are you doing?” You move in front of him to cut him off from getting any closer to your door, shaky hands pressed against his chest - it made him see red. “You piece of shit! Get out here before I kick your ass! You think you can lay hands on her like that?!” Oh boy, he has no idea who is standing behind the door. Chifuyu was trying to get dressed and was about to climb out the window but he realized his cell phone and keys were in the living room. “Baji stop! It’s not what you think!” You pleaded while trying to hold him back and trying to keep your towel up at the same time.

Baji took out his cell phone to make a call, he wanted all three of them to kick the living shit out of the person hiding in your bedroom. However, the moment he heard a familiar ringtone coming from the living room, he immediately turned around and noticed the phone on the coffee table. The look on Baji’s face was of pure shock. He turned to look at you and the vein on his forehead was becoming more and more visible as his brain put the pieces together. The promise that you both made was broken in front of him. “...you were so pissed that you decided to take advantage of Chifuyu?” Baji’s tone was full of acrimony, so much so that it left a sour taste in his mouth after saying Chifuyu’s name. His words felt like acid being thrown on your face, ‘take advantage of’, that’s what kept ringing in your ears. “(Y/N)! Answer me!” He was now screaming in your face and close enough to make you uncomfortable, almost as if his words made you shrink.

“That’s enough, she didn’t take advantage of anyone. The only one taking advantage here is you…” Kazutora’s voice could be heard as he walked through the door, closing it behind him to avoid unnecessary attention from the neighbors. You turned to look at him with tears welling in your eyes, he always came to the rescue and you were grateful that Kazutora was here. You knew Chifuyu would never hit Baji or even try to defend himself if Baji were to act on impulse. “Not now Kazutora…you can’t come and save her every time she fucks up.” Baji’s words impale you, his blame was solely on you - he thinks that you slept with Chifuyu out of spite. He painted you as a villain, if it’s a villain he wants, it’s a villain he will get. “I fucked up?” You say with a chuckle escaping your lips. “And what about you, huh? Always insulting me to make your little bitches feel better? Then you ask for forgiveness and I’m stupid enough to forgive you!” The words wouldn’t stop, the emotions were spilling out and you couldn’t bottle it up anymore. "I'm done forgiving you, I'm done being treated like nothing by you and you know what? I don't regret sleeping with him, why? Because they made me feel human again, they made me feel whole and wanted." You stopped yourself when it clicked in your head that you said 'they' instead of 'him'. A crushing weight was added to Baji’s shoulders, “THEY?”

“Yeah, we fucked…the three of us. You kept chipping away at me, breaking me until I was nothing and they pieced me back together. And you know what?! It was the best lay I’ve ever had in my life.” For the first time in Baji’s life, he was being put in his place. You've always been so kind, always obedient and docile, never really standing up for yourself until now.

Kazutora walked towards the two of you and tried to pull you away from Baji so that you could get some breathing space. The immediate response to the slightest touch had Baji shoving Kazutora against the wall. “How long, huh? How long have you been sleeping with her behind my back?” It felt as if Baji was no longer able to trust you. The bedroom door opened and Chifuyu emerged from it, “The day you decided to degrade her in front of everyone at the bar.” It felt like the world was spinning, having them defend you and themselves was one thing but actually making Baji understand was another. “It shouldn’t matter to you anyways right? You said she's not a lot to look at and you’ve never shown interest in (Y/N). We’re serious about her…” Kazutora says as he looks Baji straight in the eye. The arrogance flashing in Kazutora's eyes made Baji let go and as he began to walk away, he turned to look back at you - "I'll enjoy seeing you two getting ripped to shreds when she's done using you." Nothing but bitterness lingered on his tongue as he said those words, making you fall to your knees and clutch your chest. It felt as if you couldn't breathe, the tears free fall and you felt guilty at tearing their friendship apart.

***Present***

Going out to bars became a mundane task - you didn’t have as much fun anymore, always watching out so that you don’t run into him. “Earth to (Y/N)?” Kazutora says while waving his hand in front of your face, making you snap out of your train of thoughts. “Oh, sorry - you were saying?” Both Chifuyu and Kazutora exchanged glances, they knew your head was in the clouds and everything was going in one ear and out the other. “You’re babysitting that beer…” Looking down at the bottle in front of you, you noticed that it’s been barely touched and began to chug it down completely - flabbergasting them both. Suddenly, the attention was snatched from them, Baji walked through the doorway with company - the same chick that has been clinging to him for the last month. “Guys, I think I’m gonna head home.” You say while getting up to collect your things. A hand reached over to sit you back down, Kazutora was not in the mood to be chasing two people tonight. “Stay.” Damn it, when he spoke like that you couldn’t say no. “Fine! But I am downing shots and you better take me home, my home.” They both cheered in unison, little did you know that they had something else up their sleeves. After losing count of shots and 3 beers the night became a blur.

“Hey…(Y/N)?” A voice was calling out to you, but who? You opened your eyes and tried to focus on the person in front of you but all you could make out was long dark tresses. “Mhn…Kazutora?” You mumble softly reaching out for the person, the dim light in the room was making it difficult to recognize your surroundings, it felt like home? ”Is that my shirt?!” “...I’m gonna kill them…” “...why my room? Why are you pantless?” “...where are they?” Faint words trailing off in your head. You tried getting up but stumbled when your legs gave out, you braced for impact only to be caught in time before your face met the floor. “Sit your ass back down!” Your eyes began to focus, furrowed eyebrows and brown eyes - Baji. With liquid courage still in your system, you wrapped your arms around his neck and buried your face into his neck. Sober you would never, not at a time like this. “What the hell are you doing?” He questioned, trying to pry your hands off, but your grip only tightened. “Don’t leave me…please.” You began to sob softly, hoping he doesn’t fling you off. Wearing only his shirt - it was something he was used to, but something felt different. He couldn’t take his eyes off your thighs when the hem of his shirt rose as your arms reached for him.

“You’re drunk-” Baji was cut off by you locking your lips onto his. He was stupefied and froze in place. The taste of liquor lingered on your tongue as you bit his lower lip, imploring him to let you in. He couldn’t help but let you dive in, he would be lying if he said he never wondered what your lips would feel like against his. You couldn't stop yourself from exploring his mouth, something so familiar yet to foreign, plush lips made him forget past events. Lithe fingers trailed down his chest, getting lower and lower, begetting a low grunt from him. “Stop…” His actions betrayed his words as his member twitched and hardened at being touched - his own hand reaching to grip your hips and pulling you closer. Both your hearts were beating 100mph, it was hard to catch your breath when he dug his fingers into your hips, making you wince and moan. Baji’s kisses were becoming more hungry and sloppy. He began pushing you back, guiding you to the bed - neither of you paused when you both fell into the soft mattress. Pinned underneath him, your dainty hands tangled themselves in his hair, lightly tugging it and making him growl into your lips. His hips rolled against yours, hard member becoming desperate for friction and for attention.

"Keisuke…" his name rolled off your tongue with fervor. Hungry hands roamed every inch of your body, calloused fingers gripping plush thighs making his breath hitch. Baji finally broke the kiss by trailing his lips from your cheeks to your neck, nipping at the delicate flesh and leaving light marks. Your hands hying to the button on his jeans, unzipping them and reaching in to take a hold of his thick cock, eliciting a low moan from him. Fisiting his cock slowly, you could feel every vein, every throb and the ungodly amount of precum that was coating your fingers. The heat radiating from him was enough to start making you sweat. “You feel better than I imagined…” To know that you’ve been thinking about him like this makes a blush creep up on his face. Baji shifted his body to the left, giving his right hand free rein to explore your honeypot, he didn’t even need to tease you, your slick was already blanketing his fingers. “...you’ve been waiting for this, haven’t you?” His bold question made you mewl as two fingers slid into your core and made him shudder. The tight sensation of your walls had him throbbing in your hands. “...tell me, does this feel better than her?” Your cocky attitude made him chuckle and thrust his fingers roughly in and out of your needy hole, making your back arch. Drunk or not, this is what you’ve been waiting for , to break down the barriers that kept you both apart - the alcohol was just a spark to ignite the fire that was now burning inside you.

You matched his pace and began stroking his cock harder and faster, Baji’s moans felt like ecstasy and made your coil tighten. Making him melt for you has been an urge you’ve wanted to fulfill for years, never having the courage to dive into the deep end until today. “Cum for me…” His smug toothy grin made you clamp your thighs together to cease his movement. “Make me…” You retorted and pulled your hand away from his throbbing cock, popping your fingers in your mouth to taste his essence, an image that he will never forget. Once satisfied with the taste, your hands were quick to remove the shirt you were wearing - Chifuyu and Kazutora prepped you well, they made sure to get you ‘dressed’. The cool air nipped at your bare chest, making your nipples hard and almost throwing Baji overboard. Taking this as his queue to strip, he did so quickly with zero hesitation and practically ripped the panties you were wearing. Baji got up and stood at the edge of the bed, devouring your bare image on his bed - his arms were quick to pull your legs down so that your bottom half was on the edge. The motion made you giggle. He got on his knees and began to run his fingers through your folds - collecting the slick and rubbing your clit with it. The way your chest would heave up and down had him gripping his length, fisting it slowly as his tongue swiped through your folds, placing more and more pressure on your clit. Who knew that he’s been taking mental notes while you were exchanging one night stand stories with each other.

“Feels so good.” You say panting, hands reaching down to pull his face in close to your heat - he lets out a low chuckle, he can tell you’re needy. Two digits are plunged into your core and his mouth latches on to your bundle of nerves, shooting electricity through your veins and almost overdosing you with bliss. Your body was now at his mercy, his name was being repeated over and over like a prayer, “Oh god, Kei-ngh” His ego inflated and he curved his fingers to hit that spongy spot over and over again, making your legs quiver and your mind go blank. Your eyes rolled back and your walls spasmed, gushing into his mouth as he indulged in your sweet nectar. “Is this how you bewitched them?” Baji’s tone is coy, it makes a shiver run down your spine and your walls clench around nothing as he withdraws his fingers from your core. “Did it work on you?” You ask innocently while biting your lower lip, glossy eyes tempting him to dive back in for more. “Fuck…” He dove back into your honeypot, lapping up every drop and making you throw your head back and grip the sheets. His tongue prodded your core, dipping in and out with haste - the pads of his fingers focused on your puffy clit as he traced circles on it. He had you on edge, constantly torturing your cunt by stoping and allowing you to catch your breath, only to play with you again. “...I’m-fuck!” You scream and moan as your second orgasm smashes into you. Your legs quivered as you came down from your high, he wanted to keep making you scream but his aching cock couldn’t wait any longer for attention.

Once he positioned himself on top of you, he aligned his cock between your folds, teasing the tip with your slick. You bit your lower lip, your glossy orbs filled with desire stared back into his eyes, he couldn’t help but savor the moment. Fingernails dug into his back as he slid in painfully slow - stretching you out and making you gasp loudly. “What’s wrong (Y/N), too big for ya?” Baji says mockingly as the thick length pushed past your velvet walls and hit your cervix with so much pressure, it made your eyes water. He was enjoying seeing your face filled with pain and pleasure, especially since he’s the cause of it all. How the hell has this been kept under wraps for so long? You felt your hips ache at the pressure inside your core. “...ngh, keep going.” You choked out a loud moan as his hips reeled back and slammed back into you. Nirvana was so close, you felt like he was going to make you cum again without much effort, all the right spots were being violently hit with each and every thrust of his hips. Could it be the alcohol that was making your body so sensitive or could it be that Baji was just that good? He began to steady his pace and crashed his lips into yours, warm muscle overwhelming yours - he was determined to take you to paradise. Your taste lingered on his tongue, an elixir that was fatal to men and women alike. The way you wrapped your legs around his waist made him moan your name and it was music to your ears. In one swift motion Baji rolled over and you found yourself on top of him. “Ride me…” His voice was low and almost menacing. Almost demanding you to ride his cock or else. You smiled and sat up, his cock was pushed deeper into your core and it felt as if it was splitting you completely in half. Your hips began to move and your hands leaned on his chest for support. “S-shit, just like that…” Baji’s hands gripped your hips and began to guide your motions, thrusting up into you - it was almost painful but your body kept going as the third orgasm was clawing its way out. The way you rotated your hips, making his cock drag along the spot that made you see stars, had him moaning your name. Your bodies were reaching their peaks, your walls spasmed around his length and he filled you to the brim as your juices coated his length. Both of you were so caught up in each other's rapture that you didn’t notice the approaching voices and footsteps.

“He should be here-” Kazutora’s voice trailed off when he opened the door and saw the both of you tangled between the sheets. “Baji?! You fucking slut! Oh my god!” The blonde shrieked as she saw you two fucking without a care in the world. She turned to run out of the apartment in tears. The both of you turned over to look towards the doorway and noticed Kazutora’s and Chifuyu’s smug smiles. “Oh my, you harlet!” Kazutora said dramatically and Chifuyu erupted in laughter. They both planned for this to happen and took it step further by purposely leading the blonde to Baji’s room when she showed up unannounced. “When you two are done, let’s go get some food, we’re hungry.” Chifuyu said as he pulled Kazutora away from the doorway. “You might starve, I’m not done with her yet…” Baji said as he continued thrusting his cum back into you and making you moan and giggle at the same time. “Don’t make me get in there…” Kazutora said as winked at you both before closing the door. “Wanna take his invitation? Their Invitation?” The coy smile on your face made Baji regret not taking you sooner.

End.

Things in the "Pine Barrens" ep I loved (spoilers obv):

- Laszlo telling Baby Colin to use Siri to prove him right in an argument with Nandor

- Baby Colin chilling with Sean during the day because Laszlo and Nandor are sleeping

- The girls night is fucking LIT they are having the time of their LIVES, and most importantly Marwa. I think Nadja even has a line about Marwa needing to experience other things outside of Nandor (I may be wrong though)

- Guillermos family is so cute but you can also start to get a picture of how he ended up as a perpetual familiar. He definitely has a somewhat subservient/perpetual little kid dynamic with his family and he struggles to speak up for himself, although not as much anymore

- Guillermo is wearing VERSACE. HELLO??? (he may also be wearing a Gucci tracksuit at the start of the ep)

- Guillermo is just SO SWEET with his family he's so proud to finally have them over for dinner im-

- NADJA PAINTING MARWAS NAILS NADJA PAINTING MARWAS NAILS

- The girls watching Mamma Mia and Nadja being so pumped about it. She's reliving Greece through Meryl Streep

- She also says Laszlo doesn't like to watch it because it reminds him of all the children he sired and then left when he was a human (which taking in his current parental role with Baby Colin is so interesting to me)

- Nandor and Laszlo are having tension pretty much from the very start of the ep but Nandor seems most taken aback when Laszlo says Sean is his best friend. And he keeps getting excluded from their interactions 😢

- Nandor gets concerned about having firearms in the house with Baby Colin around 🥺 and when he tries to tell Laszlo he shouldn't be messing with them Laszlo brushes him off and that seems to be the final straw that leads into their fight

- My babygirl Guillermo was hiding so much over the years that he felt like he had to lie that Nadja was HIS WIFE. And when cornered, Nadja actually GOES ALONG WITH IT for seemingly no other reason than to help Guillermo??? She could have just slaughtered them all, hypnotized them into forgetting her, but no. She plays along!!!! Because they're friends!!!!!!

- PS. I think at one point she even lies to make him look better by saying he's actually her boss???

- de la Cruz family having natural slayer instincts theory CONFIRMED!

- I may be reading too much into this one but Guillermos abuela says when a de la Cruz gets near a vampire your heart burns and you get goosebumps and then it cuts straight to Nandor. I am connecting the dots on how Nandor and Guillermo met because there's no way Guillermo didn't feel something similar (he's probably just gotten used to the sensation after all this time and didn't think it was weird). Again I may be overthinking but that sure sounds like a sensation that could be mistaken for love at first sight and also its giving strong vibes of when Nandor said he had already found love and then it cut straight to Guillermo

- Nandor and Lazslo fighting in front of Baby Colin also gives big 'my parents are a week away from a divorce' energy

- Nadja actually really loves Guillermos family! She asks them how such lovely people raised such a boring person (im paraphrasing cause I couldn't really hear)

- Guillermos face after he comes out I will never recover

- Also the fact that as soon as everything about the vampires comes spilling out he also comes out - like I know we (sort of but not really) joke about vampirism/the monstrous being a metaphor for queerness but hoo boy. this one really got me

- His family was more annoyed that Guillermo wants to be a vampire than him being gay I love that for them

- Nandor is really going through it man. But he's also becoming so protective of Baby Colin. I just want to hug him 😞

- Nadja has another moment of real sympathy with Guillermo based on her own family that she can't see anymore. This was truly an episode delving much deeper into the individual characters' insecurities and histories of how they came to be the way they are

- I also think she has a line about how Guillermo has a puppy dog face when he wants something but it's more effective on Nandor and she thinks it's gross

- Nadja wants to have more girls nights and wants to watch Mamma Mia 2!!! I hope Guillermo joins their girls nights cause she only requested that Nandor Lazslo and Colin be out of the house

- This entire sequence between Guillermo and Nadja (in a talking heads confession TOGETHER! BESTIES!!! it's everything I wanted from them in London)

GUILLERMO: Now they know I'm gay, so...

NADJA: I mean, who isn't gay???

GUILLERMO: Lots of people.

NADJA: (sarcastically) Oh ok, woo-hoo. I'll get the confetti(?) out, sorry.

GUILLERMO: (rolling his eyes in the gayest, bitchiest way possible) Shady.

I love them so much it's insane.

- Baby Colin teaching Sean about Roblox - this can only lead good places
