UM- you should maybe look into that, reminds me of what my laptop cord did a few months ago.

Okay.. While I was asleep, my phone almost exploded and its charger melted. I'm guessing-- It's a clue.

1, 1, 3

That's one I definitely didn't plan on writing, alright.

@owensgrumpyoranges there's another interactive for you, similar to last time but this time the choices will be better.

(At least I can promise it won't be as violent as the last one)

I'm continuing to think about einjoyce dialogs when one of them having the most random midnight brainrot.

Welt: What if banks started to release a culture-inspired coins or banknotes? Literally a money with specific culture-inspired value. Ein: ... Ein: You know, I really love you. Welt: Thanks, I love you too!.. yet this isn't related to question. Welt: I mean, could you imagine for a moment having a 42 cent coin – it would be insane! Maybe this is what Computer was talking about. Ein: It would be so damaging for economy. But... Welt: But..!

...and then they started to discuss how banks works, because what else people do at midnight?

Last few days I was making second part of my kindergarten's brainrot, trying to not turn it into lore drop (or stand up, whatsoever), but now I want to make a little out-topic post.

So, thanks to Valentine's Day and an ideas about Nancy having a birthday on February 11th, I wanted to joke about Nancy went to London to celebrate her bday far from work and close to Tesla (+ she already had planned Valentine's day✨)

...and got sick day-two after the birthday. So imagine Welt's preparing to their Valentine's day with Ein and in one moment Tesla breaking into his room with the most devilish expression:

Welt: Someone's died? Tesla: No, but Nancy seems to have a deathbed delirium... or fever. Welt: ...how could I help you? Tesla: She wants to see you. Without me.

When Welt came to visit Nancy, she as a real princess on the deathbed started to command how to distribute her belongings... and she ended up being like «Okay, chillax – I'm training to be a damsel in distress in front of Tesla. Now listen here, it's only between me and you. I have a two tickets on very fancy show and I give them to you. On the Valentine's Day you take Einstein there, because 1) I don't want this tickets go to waste; 2) I need you two to not coming back before morning of February 15th»

It was the fastest deal Nancy even did😆 (imagining «EdiTesla are simply chilling and warming up entire Valentine's day while EinJoyce are dressing up in the most fancy things and going to conquer London» is one of my favourite stuffs to do)

[owensgrumpyoranges]

You've outdone yourself oh my WORD I'm not going to shut up about this anytime sooon alksjdlaskjdlaksjdaljsldaljk 😭😭😭😭

Happy Valentine's day!

✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧

The grand ballroom of the Imperial College was a breathtaking sight to behold, draped in rich velvet and adorned with twinkling chandeliers that cast a warm glow over the elegantly dressed attendees and the quiet timeless gazes of historical figures peering down at them from the portraits. The air was filled with the soft melody that seemed to weave through the laughter and chatter of students celebrating the winter ball. 

Lieserl stood at the edge of the dance floor as she caught sight of Welt, his tall figure cutting through the crowd with an air of confidence that made her pulse quicken. Tonight was special, it wasn’t just a celebration of their academic achievements but also a night that held the promise of something more. 

Welt was striking in that tailored black suit, god bless Tesla for dragging him to that atelier in the nearest district. The fabric shined subtly under the ballroom lights and the snow-white shirt beneath added a classic elegance to him. A small light-blue delicate flower was pinned on his chest, perfectly matching Lieserl’s dress and hairpin of flowers tucked in her hair. The contrast between the rich blue, white and the dark fabric created a stunning visual harmony that made them look like a pair destined to dance together that evening.  

Welt approached her, his eyes sparkling with mischief and affection. “May I have this dance?” he asked, extending his hand toward her.  

Lieserl, dazzling in her gown that hugged her figure just right, was a pure vision of elegance. The dress’s layers cascaded to the floor, her usually messy hair were styled in waves (not without Emma’s help, of course) making her features look even more of a delicate doll.

With a smile that lit up her face, Lieserl took his hand, feeling the warmth of his touch seep into her skin through the gloves. As he led her onto the dance floor, the world around them faded away, leaving just the two of them in their own little universe. Lieserl felt a shiver of anticipation as Welt’s hand found its place on the small of her back. It was a gentle yet electrifying pressure, grounding her, guiding her, and sending a wave of warmth through her entire being.  

The music tempo grew, and they began to move together, their bodies gliding across the polished floor. Every step and every turn felt effortless. Wrapped in the warmth of the embrace, Welt guided her through the waltz with grace as if they had been dancing together for a lifetime.  

With every turn, Lieserl felt a rush of joy bubbling up inside her, so bright and overwhelming it threatened to spill over. She wrapped her arms around his neck, laughter escaping her lips as they twirled, the layers of her gown swirling around her like a mist of starlight. Welt’s soft gaze was fixed on her, brimming with a tenderness that made her heart skip a bit and she couldn’t help but smile wider. Lieserl closed her eyes, savouring the feel of Welt’s hand on her back, the heat of his breath against her skin, the steady rise and fall of his chest. 

As the music slowed, Welt brought her to a gentle stop, their bodies mere inches apart as they caught their breath. “Ich liebe dich” he whispered, his voice barely audible over the fading strains of the music. Lieserl’s heart swelled with love, and she reached up to cup his face in her hands. “Ich liebe dich auch.” 

Lieserl turned around, her eyes sparkling with joy, looking for the dear faces in the crowd. Their expressions were a blend of happiness and something else - anticipation? She frowned, confused by the tears glistening in Emma and Tesla’s eyes and the way Erwin covered her mouth as if holding back a secret of what was about to come. Turning back to Welt, she found him standing close, a strange look in his eyes that sent a thrill through her. 

Don't mess this up. Don't mess this up. Welt thought to himself as he lowered himself to one knee. He had imagined this moment a hundred times and rehearsed the words a thousand times and now all he could think of was how she’d mapped constellations into his soul, tracing patterns of light he hadn’t known existed until she saved him, it felt like the universe had whispered her name into his bones long before he’d known her face.

“Ein,” he began, his voice trembling, “from the moment we met, you’ve filled my life with light and purpose. Every moment we’ve shared has been a treasure and I can’t help but dream of a lifetime filled with more.” He paused and took a deep breath. “You’ve been the promise I didn’t know I needed that brought me back to life when I was drowning in silence. You’ve shown me what it means to truly live and I want to spend every day of my life making sure you feel as loved and cherished as you’ve made me feel.”

Then, with a small, nervous smile, he pulled out a tiny box, opening it to reveal a delicate ring that sparkled under the chandelier’s glow. “Will you marry me? Will you let me be by your side, not just now, but always?”

Lieserl’s breath caught in her throat, her heart pounding so loudly as the time stood still. She looked into Welt’s eyes in disbelief, and in them she saw everything - love, hope, and a future she had only dared to dream of. It was a fragile thing, this moment, as a myriad of thoughts collided in Lieserl’s mind. For the first time in her meticulously ordered life, Lieserl Albert Einstein stood paralyzed, drowning in the chaos of her own heartbeat.

It was a wishful fantasy she’d cradled in the quiet hours: stolen nights under the stars, piano keys whispering secrets only they understood, the million times her heart stopped from the radiating warmth of his smile. Yes, Lieserl dreamed of this moment so many times. Yet she never expected this moment would become real one day. A part of her always believed it wouldn't last, that it was too good to be true. The lost boy she took in so long ago now became the one showing her how beautiful the world could be.

Her heart had known the answer long before her mind could catch up. It had been whispering it to her for weeks, months, years. Yes. Yes. Yes. Tears welled up, blurring her vision for a moment before spilling over. They traced paths down her cheeks as she stared at him, kneeling before her.

“Yes,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “A thousand times, yes.” 

A radiant smile broke across his face, his eyes shimmering with unshed tears as he slid the ring onto her finger. Lieserl laughed through her tears trying to brush them away. As if sealing the moment, Welt lifted her hand to his lips, pressing a soft kiss to the ring. Then he rose to his feet and before Lieserl could react, he scooped her up into his arms, lifting her off the ground. She let out a surprised gasp as he spun her around.  

Lieserl’s hands moved to cradle his face as she leaned in, her lips brushing against his in a kiss that was filled with the promise of forever. The ballroom erupted into cheers and applause. Emma was sobbing, clutching to Erwin’s arm while the latter grinned from ear to ear. Tesla thought about this moment long ago, watching Welt and Lieserl’s story unfold like a beautifully written novel. And now, as she stood there, her heart swelled with a mix of pride and joy, knowing she had witnessed something extraordinary from the very beginning. And, this time, she let the tears fall, her smile widening as she whispered, “I knew they were long-lost lovers."

Warning: the work is written in Russian (I promised myself to do it some time ago), so I cannot vouch for the translation from Russian to English by Google Translator.

The work also contains scenes of violence, so if you are under 18 16, don't read. (I don't know why I'm writing this here, if I should write it on ao3… well, okay)

I've already had the opportunity to curse myself for starting to write in Norwegian, but it's probably good practice. (My apologies for my Norwegian, I don't have much of a memory…)

[owensgrumpyoranges]

why do i regain the ability to write while i'm supposed to be sleeping in my sister's basement after spending the whole day with her three year old.

why.

Like seriously I'm writing faster and better than I have been for literal months.

Also here's an official announcement that I'm letting Tesla swear.

I will never be over how heartbroken Welt looks in the first one; truly like his world is crashing down around him and she's his only lifeline- GAH I didn't need to cry so early in the morning 😭💗💗💗

thank you so much for feeding us 🥺 I swear every time I see a new piece of art from you I start to go into cardiac arrest, and you have no idea how many times your art has given me new inspiration.

Happy one year, EinJoyce queen 🥂

It’s been 1 year since I started posting AE art here. Even though there were times of my absence, I’m still very proud of how much I’ve drawn, and I’m eternally grateful to everyone who has supported me with likes, comments, and questions. I also want to thank everyone who has been feeding AE nation throughout this year, whether it be art, fics, thoughts, or hcs ❤️
