tommy loves horses of course, and there's a lot going on there (re trauma), but he has a pretty utilitarian view on them most of the time; it's not as much of an affectionate relationship to the animals as i think fandom seems to believe. there's also rather a greater symbolic meaning in general to him than bonding himself emotionally to a single horse, the way it tends to be with most horsey narratives
#he *uses* them and i think it has something to do with his self image and - as i said - trauma#horses as vehicles as tools in war race horses etc etc#dunno where i'm going with this; i think there's some opportunity to do something w that in the movie#he surely was different here before the war and you can clearly imagine little tommy spending all the time at the stables#and talking more to the horses than to any of the people around or in general but yeah#his overidentification with something that he tends to objectify & then again not all his horse comparsions or metaphors are positive or#positively connotated either#& it's also a class thing even as there's an affectionate layer to this he wouldn't look at a horse and see a cherished coddled pet#they are animals bred for use and not leisure and that's the sentiment he grew up with as well

Fae Courting Rituals | TWST
Diasomnia Dorm X Reader
Lilia X Reader, Sebek X Reader, Malleus X Reader, Silver X Reader
---- Fae are typically taught from a young age certain courting rituals. (Non-Human courting rituals part 3/3)
Note: Was going To add silver to this list. (I know he isn't a fae, but he was raised by one) but was too tired to write for him)
Savanaclaw Ver. | Octavinelle Ver
Sebek:
He starts following you around for some reason.
Seriously, one day he just woke up and decided to not leave you alone. It helped that you guys shared a bundle of classes together.
You had no clue how you befriended the green hair boy. You weren't complaining though, in this school, where everyone is so set in their ways, you liked having the extra layer of protection that was the loud half fae: Sebek.
He was loud and denies it however, whenever you point out he follows you. He claims to not having even realized he was doing such a thing. "I would never follow around a mere human!" He shouted out his claims with a red face.
It could be true. He did get somewhat spacy sometimes if you'd believe it.
He had a packed schedule, or so he claimed, yet he always found time to be around you. It made a warm feeling blossom in your chest, well, of course before he used this time to rant about Malleus. "Wakasama is the most kind and fit ruler of-" He'd ramble, you'd sigh; put your face in your hand and lean a bit closer to him. You enjoyed hearing him so passionate, even if it was... constant.
He didn't have an off switch, that didn't have to be a bad thing.
Plush, you didn't hate his voice. Not that you'd be as loud about your likes as he was for his.
Though you were pretty positive your friends... and most of the students at NRC were in fact sick of his voice. People have also noticed he is more vocal around you.
Which is… a good thing?
The oddest thing happened once. At one point when the two of you were relaxing in ramshackle. A bag of popcorn and a shitty TV you got on sale at Sam's shop. He wasn't being loud for once in his life, instead his attention was focused on the screen.
You two were sitting pretty close together when, he had grabbed your hand and laid his head on yours. Was he... cuddling you?
You couldn't help but smile and continue to watch the movie. You didn't want to comment on it, you knew if you did, he'd probably get up, make a huge deal out of it (with a red face), and leave.
He started rubbing his forehead against yours before he finally pulled away like it never happened. It was oddly affectionate.
You didn't even think he knew that he was doing it.
He began to do these affectionate things while he was focused on something else. Either it be a show at the movie nights you organized with him, or if he was studying a bit to hard with you.
Your friends wondered how you even managed a movie night with the loud boy but you just shrugged.
Eventually, you had to face it: You really like Sebek.
You really liked this brash boy with a thick skull.
You knew however, even if he did like you back. He'd never admit it, let alone go out with you.
It left you with this odd feeling. A dull pain that ranged from a small ache to feeling like Throns were wrapping around your heart, piercing the organ in your chest.
You tried not to let that get you too down. Instead, you watched him across the lunchroom as subconsciously he blew bubbles into his drink, his green eyes finding yours...
So yes, you'd listen to his rants. You'd go out of your way to hang out with him, you'd enjoy his company while you could.
Because you knew, sooner or later, he'd realize it too. The same reality you had to face. And...
well...
He wouldn't face it.
He'd probably turn you away and never speak to you again. And you'd be fine with that. Even if you didn't want to be because you...
Well, let's save that for another day.. "Hey Sebek, lets hang out!"
"I suppose I can make time for you, Human!"
Lilia:
He was out to get you.
You noticed it. Almost everybody noticed it. You just didn't know what you did to him! He'd pop up everywhere and scare you! Right before disappearing away.
This counted as bullying, right?
You were starting to get... slightly paranoid.
You enjoyed Lilia's company, you really did. But you were tired of constantly looking over your shoulder. So, you started to avoid him, just a bit.
Your own personal revenge for the paranoia.
Now, Lilia has lived a long life. He knows what he's doing and is just having fun. He liked you, he did, but he probably isn't going to be that serious about this. He's in it for the vibes.
So when he see's you avoiding him... he well... He serenades you from outside ramshackle.
He makes his intentions very clear with a love song!
A boombox in Sebek's hand, and a tired Silver who followed along because... well Lilia was making Sebek hold a bomb box and traveling in your direction.
Lilia song his heart out for you. "Everybody loves somebody sometime!~ And although my dream was-"
"It is 2am!! The perfect will go out with you tomorrow!" Grim shouted out the window with a grogy done with it tone. After you threw a pillow at them.
NOTE: Sorry this one is short but I have a hard time writing for Lilia
Malleus:
What do you mean? You started courting him first. Very brave of you indeed child of man. He had even commented on it while you handed a piece of treasure!
That was... well, it was a cheap polished rock. It was well... shiny...?
It started very small. He accepted your gift and was expecting a bit more to be honest. Not even he was exactly sure how this courting would work out; he was prepared to be the one to pursue you!
Initially, he sat back and relaxed. Enjoyed the small sense of harmony you two already had and assumed you guys were dating.
Why would he not? He accepted your courting gift, he assumed their were more to come, the next step up to this would be marriage and he wasn’t sure you were ready for that.
However, you noticed this. You were so confused. He’d began to call you “beloved.” Which was a 180.
When did you two…? Huh??
He’s also been more clingy. Not on the sense he’d follow you around but in the sense of a mountain of handwritten letters and the actual sense that he’s in your personal space when you two do hang out.
So… the two of you are just dating now? “Beloved, you haven’t been responding to my letters. Did I do something?”
“Oh, sorry I just haven’t… quite finished all of them.” You glanced at a room that was empty at one time. Now it held a pile of letters.
This was an exaggeration, they’re were a lot but not a whole room full… yet.
Extra??? Silver:
It started like most seedlings of love, with a dream. A simple one, you were sat beside him, the two of you quiet and happy in each others company. The birds sang as you hummed beside him. The boy was content, more so then he had been in his life.
Then, like it was second nature to both of you. You two shared a kiss, and then he woke up.
Usually, he tried not to lose himself to sleep. But tonight all he wanted was to go back to the dream world and hold you. As soon as the realization crossed his mind however, he woke up even more. Had he ever been this awake? “Am I in love…?”
He, not knowing what to do. Went to Lilia, whom was enthusiastic with this news.
You know when parents find out their four year old has a crush? That’s Lilia, except Silver isn’t four. Every time they see you Lilia shoos Silver off too hang out with you. Sadly, with no prior love life to speak of, silver goes along with it.
Though he is embarrassed about it, he hides it well enough.
“Does Lilia think you like me?” You asked all to happily once, hiding your own happiness behind a giggle at the absurd situation he found himself in.
“Uh, yeah…” he’d just smile at you, his head laying on the lunch table as he was about to go to sleep. he loved to see you laugh even if it was somewhat at his expense. However, Sleep tends to escape him when he was near you. Not that he didn’t feel tired, but he didn’t feel as tired. He couldn’t feel angry about it, in fact he was happy about this. It was like you were some temporary cures for his illness.
Lilia would also insist that Silver gift you things. To show he can provide for you, the Silver hair male couldn’t disagree. So, he’d find things that might fancy you.
His bird and squirrel friends also helped him in his venture to gain your affection. Often leaving flowers at your doorstep and small shiny things.
One day you saw the birds and Squirrels run up to your doorstep, one flower at a time, make a gorgeous bouquet.
You made sure to thank him and his animal friends after that.
In return you'd try and make things for him, find things around he or the animals would like. Nuts for squirrels, seeds for the birds, and a deep red rose you plucked from Heartslabyul during the end of an unbirthday party.
He stayed awake for longer than he ever had that night, staring up at the rose in the dark while his dormmate slept. A smile on his lips as he examined every detail of it.
Ace would call it cheesy. The relationship between the two of you was something out of a romance movie he'd say in a more teasing way. Something like, "Is it Tuesday or Wednesday he's going to chase after you to an airport?" and then roll his eyes. You tell Ace to shut up while looking away with a face as red as riddle's hair.
It was after a test, you pulled your test paper out of your bag ready to check your score after preparing for disappointment when a blue bird swopped down and took it!
You cursed and chased after the bird, rushing past students and looking crazy, eventually you ended up in the forest next to the school.
You were sure you looked ever crazier than you had been running in the school halls, because now you had leaves in your hair, and your shoes were all muddy now...
Eventually, the birds placed the test paper, face down on a certain boy's chest. "Silver... Are you asleep?" You smiled and knelt beside him, a small smile on your face. Rolling your eyes at the perpetually sleeping boy. You sat beside him for a moment taking a deep breath before you grabbed your test.
You almost preferred it this way, to have him here, even if he wasn't fully here. It helped your nerves somewhat. An even bigger smile graced your face as you turned the paper, and a large B was printed at the top.
Standing up, you gifted your friend a small kiss on his forehead and wandered off back to school.
Well, you were stopped by a small, sleepy voice. "Y/N...?"
___________________________
Note: It was this or clean my depression room... Anyway, I want to expand on Sebek's small scenario because I know if it was its own imagine I could make it really good.
Would ya'll enjoy that...?
ANYWAY, these small series is competed! (Unless...?) Thank you for reading them and thanks for reading the note. Not a lot of people do that. Myself included.

Reiji's daughter
High class homegirl: shes got a name like aurora (dawn / new life) or a fancy European old money name like René (reborn), or has a traditional name from her mother's heritage like neziha (virtuousness) or asma ( of higher standing)
Reiji probably doesn't know of her existence till she's a teenager, isn't necessarily his fault but she wasn't a planned child.
He isn't very openly affectionate towards her mother as she's a human, and well it's not like he loved her; so her mom left him when she found out she was with child.
Afterall she had witnessed what his experiments could extend to, and especially a damphir child would probably intrigue him. It was a 50/50 chance
Reiji has no problems cutting ties with her mother as it was always a no strings attached relationship, afterall he picked a woman who had a respectable stand in society who wouldn't tarnish the sakamaki name, she was mannerable but smart enough to not be utterly boring.
So it would annoy him to find a new lover but he'd manage
Now as for his daughter, she has his height and eyes, and that's all physically
She has this unnatural beauty to her, with a sleek figure, but blessed with curves and strong shoulders, all evened out by her height.
She has this scent of jasmines and expensive perfume when she passes by you, with straight black hair that just falls past her shoulder blades. Always tied up in fancy braids thrown over her shoulder or just a low pony to keep it out of her way.
She's got curtain bangs that grew out but she likes how they frame her face, even though she didn't inherit her mother's curls she has baby hairs that are like little locks framing her face and tucked behind her ears.
^^^ wardrobe, she's got this old money over worked fuck boy thing she loves. Waistcoats with her entire cleavage out, high trousers with thick boots, chunky gold jewellery although she isn't against silver ( she's a rich brat and you can tell because she gets a rash when she wears anything that isn't genuine gold), she has a wide array of rings. Loves layering her clothes and those long skirts you spin in, and belts are her favourite just good leather with a chunky clasp
Laces, leather, satin, she just gives off expensive. Although she much prefers wearing skirts in the comfort of her own home depending on her weather she'll wear them outside. Ironically everyone thinks she has a really unique taste but she doesn't know shit about fashion, she has many clothes but pairs them in the exact same way.
However she very much dislikes showing skin, to her less is more, that and she's also a big baby in the cold. She hates any temperature below 5°C, but also hates any temperature above 40°C . Go to is over sized suits with folded sleaves or leather jackets with fur interior. Has a minor obsession with cufflink collections
Her striking features are most definitely her eyes, she loves emphasizing them. She already had thick perfectly shaped eyebrows with long delicate lashes but once she applies kohl to elevate them they're striking.
Has a horrible sleep schedule partially at fault for her eyebrows, she's by no means someone who overworks herself she just has a unbalanced sleep schedule where if she says she'll get something done that day no matter how late it is she'll do it, it isn't the next day till she wakes up from her 4 hour naps which she calls 7 hours of beauty sleep or she'll take random naps all day, spending all her time in bed and sleep a full 10 hours. Has a strange habit of waking up at 6 am from days spent at her private school.
She has double joints in three of her fingers and her elbow that loves using to freak people out
Very fussy with textures which is why she wears her gloves, as a child she would run her hands across any surface in public but some of the sounds made her feel sick. Probably because of her heightened sense of hearing, also has a great sense of smell which is why she has a love- hate relationship with cooking.
Cooking is actually one of her biggest love languages.
Bi icon
Is a snarky bitch if you get to know her, always with a grin that resembles the Cheshire cat too much but usually keeps a polite smile in front of everyone. Has like a singular dimple that she isn't even sure is a dimple.
Horrible back problems, probably because her posture sucks, in public she'll walk around back straight head high but in private she's always hunched over something.
Is a stress knitter
Sucks at vocal comfort but will comfort you physically e.g. stroke your back, massage your hair, hold you
Isn't very vocal with her emotions for someone who's as expressive as she is, she gets angry very quickly and she's also a very envious person but she hardly shows it
Misplaces things but always finds them
Has a complicated relationship with higher beings and the belief of God
Scarily strong, you could barrel a sumo wrestler into her put she'll just stand there like wtf
Only paints her nails with henna because my girl is low effort, high maintenance
She's smart, unsurprisingly but a big pessimist. She's got A* + A's across her report but she hardly things it's good enough
She herself doesn't know what's good enough
Although she's rich now when her mom's family first found out she was pregnant they disowned her mother so the first part of her childhood was a struggle especially with her mother detorating health
Has a constant struggle with herself about her self worth and what she deserves after her mom married rich.
