Writers Truth & Dare Ask Game:

🍓, 🍄, 🛼

finally getting around to answer these asks -- I blame my job for how long it took 😭

🍓 ⇢ how did you get into writing fanfiction?

I'm not sure because the first story I ever wrote and completed was a fanfiction! Weirdly it was a school assignment, my third grade teacher basically asked us to write fanfic lol (we had to write a story based on the book we'd read in class). I took it in an interesting direction and realized how powerful it was to be able to create the exact thing you want to read. Pretty much everything I've ever written since age 8 has been fanfic. I think I love how you don't have to create the world building or the buyin or even in many ways a plot or anything. You can get right to what you love--the characters and/or the world. I feel weird being so unable to write original fiction but I'm more of a being invasive and nosy about people's personal lives and being endlessly curious about emotions and motivations person and less of a storyteller so it kind of makes sense.

🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings

This is in a chapter that will be published in future--I'd say about a 3rd of it is written already--but Dangerous AU Mikel's parents kind of see right through Granit? I mean, they certainly don't know the details, but they tell Mikel they don't approve of his new boyfriend, that there's something wrong about him. Mikel explodes and gets extra defensive and accuses them of being homophobic, which they point out is false--they've been pretty accepting of Mikel since Mikel came out to them. Granit also does not like his parents because Granit has disdain and distrust for any sort of parent-figure. I guess they have to accept Granit in the end, but their opinion is irrelevant to Mikel by that point.

🛼 ⇢ describe your latest wip with five emojis

omg I just finished one 😭 so here's two WIPs I've been thinking about:

Why is my anxiety bad today.

I think that’s why I’ve been so fucking grumpy all day. I’ve yelled at my podcast, I couldn’t pry myself off the couch until almost noon to run errands, and now I’m laying in bed feeling like I’m in a fucking comic strip or sth when the sheet is pulled up to their chin and their eyes are huge and blinking in the dark. Like that emotion. I’m convinced I’m a burden and I’ve annoyed people by asking stupid questions, and am also irrationally annoyed by people, which is my main MO when I’m anxious. Like wow, BAD brain space today and I can’t shake it.

WHY BRAIN. WHAT IS UP BUDDY. Why are you giving me adrenaline taste in my mouth!! Why are you yelling DANGER DANGER at me!! You have asked the neighbor before if they can hear the YouTube videos in your room that you play before bed and they have said they can’t!! The dept head is not fuming at you for sending her a shitty draft of a grant piece out of the blue that she’s writing with you!! Yeah it’s weird that your foot hurts, but it’s probably because your knee and hip on the same side also hurt, because it’s all a connected chain of shitty joints misbehaving!! Yeah it’s annoying that your friend dismissed the one time you suggested to them that you actually do kind of get their hypermobility because they only know that you regularly sprain your ankles, not also that you’ve dislocated your knees multiple times and will also do that if you run into anything at knee height (bed frame, coffee table) right; you don’t have to be mad at them just because they don’t live in your body and don’t believe you aren’t also having joint pain frequently!!

Also annoying: a couple nights ago I was reading the Deborah Tannen book I have out from the library and my anxiety was triggered because she was describing arguments that people had had based on gendered expectations of communication. Because people IN A BOOK were arguing, I had my “people are arguing” anxiety and couldn’t sleep.

Brain, you need to fucking CHILL ❄️💊

How will your FS treat you in your relationship?

Thank you for all the love and support I have received over the last few months. It has made my heart so happy! We are so close to 1K (less than 25 to go) and I never thought we would reach this so fast! Thanks for following I really appreciate it. Check out my masterlist for more PAC readings and astrology observations!

Now, this PAC reading went a bit differently than I thought it would. I thought it would be all rainbows and sunshine but my cards had a different story to tell. These are real raw emotions that are channelled in these piles. They do not depict a fairytale romance, but again no relationship is perfect and no person will treat you perfectly either. However, it is up to you to decide how you deserve to be treated. After all, "we accept the love we think we deserve" - perks of being a wallflower.

Tarot is for guidance, readings are not 100% accurate nor is anything set in stone. I am also not responsible for any actions you might take following a reading. Please take any readings with a large grain of salt (sea salt i find is best). I am legally obliged to inform you that these readings are for entertainment purposes only.

Pile 1

Knight of Swords, The high priestess, Death, Ace of Cups, The Hanged Man, 5 of swords, The moon

So, first things first if you look closely at the book it reads The strength in our scars. I think your FS has either physical or emotional scars on them. They may cover up their physical scars with tattoos and cover their emotional scars with bandaids. I think they may have had a tough childhood or rough relationships with their ex with many crazy fights (5 of swords).

The death card here represents Scorpio and I do get heavy Scorpio vibes from this pile. We also have The moon here who represents someone who can be deceptive. I’m getting either Pisces or Scorpio Moon. They may also be Neptune dominant or have a prominent Neptune in their chart. Beware that this person may be keeping secrets or creating an illusion or dream that is not based in reality. You will need to be careful and make sure that you can see through any illusions they may consciously or subconsciously weave.

I think with you they can be a little immature (the only court card we have is a knight instead of the more mature King). Since it’s a sword they might charge in to defend you against naysayers and feel the need to be your protector intellectually if that makes sense. They may also have a win at all costs mentality (Think Chuck and Blair when he sold her for a hotel).

I do see that they do value you a lot and look up to you (High Priestess). They see you as a spiritual being who is more emotionally mature than they are. They may have a harder time expressing their emotions to you and they can be quite reserved in public affection.

I think at some point, there will be a metaphorical death in the relationship. I think perhaps they may get caught up in something and hurt you badly and the relationship either ends or goes on a break. I see your FS really doing some soul searching doing that time to ultimately come back and offer you love again (ace of cups, death and Hanged Man). I think this breakup will be the catalyst for change. Please note, each case is individual and this is a general tarot reading. Please use your own judgement and don’t stay in a relationship because of this reading. With the Ace of cups though, they will shower you with love and affection at times before doing stupid idiotic things like sell you for a hotel!

I would also like to note that there are likely to be some fairly bad arguments and fights between the two of you and he might put his career or winning at all costs ahead of you (5 of swords). Again, giving off Blair and Chuck vibes. If you haven’t watched Gossip Girl, I would recommend it.

🎶 You speak to me through music ❤️‍🔥Just being near you is intoxicating 💊 I know I was a distraction from your pain (I don't think their scars have healed when they first meet you so they may use you as a distraction). ✨So many things remind me of you 🥀I want you 💎 I hide behind material things

Pile 2

Judgement, 7 of Pentacles, King of swords, 8 of Pentacles, 4 of Pentacles, 4 of cups, Ace of cups

Like Pile 1 you also got the ace of cups. I think that at times your future spouse will shower you with love and affection. There are other cards here indicating selfishness so i don’t think this will be all the time. I think you will need to be honest with your future spouse and tell him what your love language is and what you need. I get the sense that your FS does love you immensely but may have a hard time showing it.

The King of Swords is usually an air sign so Gemini, Libra or Aquarius but I also get strong Virgo vibes here. He will be very mature and perhaps older than you with the King of swords. I see him as someone who is very organized, he has a plan for everything. He takes care of you well and provides everything you need (but then is selfish with other things). I think this person can be extremely critical of himself and in extension of you and the relationship. I think his critique is mostly for himself and not for you. They might be religious (Christian) and may view you as the person who they have been waiting for.

This person strikes me as someone who works very hard with three pentacle cards. The 4 of pentacles can also symbolize someone who can be quite jealous or possessive over their possessions. They might include you as a possession and get irrationally jealous when they see you with others. They might also be selfish over their hard earned money and be on the stingy side. I think if you communicate with them on your needs that they will meet you halfway. The 7 of pentacles is someone who works very hard at their career and on the relationship but they may be going through the motions instead of stopping to smell the roses. I have a feeling that you are the opposite and will encourage them to loosen up and have fun. The 8 of pentacles reinforces what I said previously, but they will work very hard to maintain the relationship, they will treat love as something logical and build a solid foundation but again they may miss the big picture.

With the 4 of cups, I think they may refuse to do fun things with you, or certain things that you desire. Like I mentioned previously, they have a tendency to be selfish and this comes through again here.

To recap, I think this person clearly loves you very much but may have a hard time showing it with kisses or affection. They may think that building you a nice home, being financially stable is love and be selfish with their love in other ways.

Me trying to get lovey dovey cards and the cards being like...this is what you get. So i'm sorry if this isn't lovey dovey.

❤️‍🔥 i love you unconditionally 🙃 I wonder if you are happy without me 💔 I left you before you could leave me ☎️ i am afraid to contact you ⌛️ The timing just wasn't right for us 🌟I knew exactly what i was doing 🥀 my life is not as together as it seems.

Pile 3:

The star, 2 of swords, 7 of cups, 10 of cups, judgement, the hermit

So this is by far the cutesy lovey dovey pile! With the star, he treats you like you deserve to be treated. They think very highly of you and put you on a high pedestal. I think you will feel very loved every single day and they let you know it daily. I can also see your FS take you on dates involving the stars (astrology, watching the stars etc.). The ten of cups is one of the cutest cards in the deck. It depicts true happiness with the rainbow and the two kids playing in the background. I think they view you and the relationship as the one they have manifested. They are very devoted to you and your family and would do anything for you. They think of you as ½ of a team and they always consult you prior to making any big decisions.

They rarely fight with you, preferring to solve it logically. They are a balanced, even keeled person who rarely loses their temper. They hate fights with you and might actually avoid it. They are big enough to be the person who apologizes first even if its not completely their fault (2 of swords and judgement).

They are big dreamers and have many ideas on how life should be. But as we all know, life rarely works out exactly the way we think it should. I think your FS may avoid telling you certain things or avoid certain arguments because they want everything to be perfect. They don’t want to lose their perfect illusion of a relationship. This can be dangerous in a relationship though because honesty is key( 7 of cups).

They are definitely a hermit and may even have strong virgo influences. They don’t mind being out and about with you (particularly when they can show you off to others) but their happiest moments with you are at home. They feel safe in the presence of you and that’s where they feel happiest.

Your future spouse will mostly treat you with kindness and give you everything you desire. They are big dreamers though and may not want to lose their perfect illusion of a relationship. They can be passionate with you behind closed doors but they hate fights preferring to channel their aggression in other ways. You may find yourself picking fights with them just to provoke them. Careful, I sense that these people are slow to anger but once they do get angry it is a sight to behold.

🥀I want to tell you how I feel ❤️‍🔥I'm starting to understand our connection ♥️ I love you 🔥Just being near you is intoxicating 👯‍♀️ I want to be more than friends

i had wanted this PAC reading to be more like a fairytale but my cards had other ideas. It wanted to show you realistic, raw feelings and actions from your future spouse. Please do not be discouraged by the piles. No one and no relationship is perfect! But also don't overlook any red flags, only you know what is best for you. I wish only the best for you guys!

how much would it take for izaya to give into his emotions and truly fall in love with someone and how would that person try to pry into izaya and get him to be more vulnerable around them? like what lengths would u have to go in order to see the REAL izaya? i wonder this a lot considering he's such a lonely and isolated character who honestly just needs a hug and deserves so much... i think someone rlly needs to understand him to the fullest

So uh somehow this got out of hand and I spent 3 hours researching and rewatching DRRR

Disclaimer: I just wanna be clear that this is all just my own personal opinion based on my understanding of canon content. Everyone is free to have their own hcs and whatnot, I am no authority in any sense of the word. Your personal Izaya is the real Izaya, no exceptions. 💛

We are told, explicitly, that Izaya has always liked keeping a certain distance from other people since he was a child. Prior to high school, Izaya was a model student in every regard except his social avoidance. He preferred watching his classmates rather than interactimg with them.

Izaya’s interest in watching his peers gradually expands into watching all “humans” (at some point he begins to separate himself from others, perhaps finding everyone so unrelatable that he no longer considers himself a part of their category... the foundation of his god complex). We see the parts where he meets Shinra, forms a club that becomes something of a small crime circle, and our first sample of Izaya’s ability to manipulate people via Nakura. For the majority of the series we understand Izaya as someone with a god complex and unhealthy obsession with watching others. He has no qualms about manipulating and watching people get hurt--if there is not already trouble, he will create it just for the sheer entertainment it provides him. Izaya does not feel guilt for his actions on other people because he does not consider himself one of them; those are humans, he is a god.

So, overall Izaya’s general feelings about others seem limited to their entertainment value and usefulness. However, there are a handful of people Izaya clearly feels differently about: Shinra, Shizuo, and Aoba.

💊Shinra

Izaya initially accepted Shinra’s suggestion to make a biology club only because he found Shinra strange. Shinra is the opposite of Izaya in many ways, most notably that he has no interest in what other people; his focus is solely on Celty. Izaya actually admits to being jealous of Shinra for his relationship with Celty. I think this is a key point because it implies Izaya is 1) capable of growing attached to people and even considering them something akin to a friend (he even seems visibly upset in the episode where he is hospitalized and called Shinra only to have the man hang up on him in favor of spending time with Celty) and 2) Izaya--as you mentioned in your ask--may be lonely and yearn for some form of love.

👓Shizuo

Izaya says he loves all humans except for Shizuo, proving just how strongly he dislikes the blond. The main reason Izaya claims to dislike him is because Shizuo is so violent, the antithesis to Izaya’s personal policy of never actually hurting people himself. Izaya manipulates people to the point of suicide and murder but he never actually commits violent acts himself. Moreover, Shizuo is not like the humans Izaya adores--his superhuman strength makes him alien, perhaps even above humans--like a god. Shizuo is a threat to Izaya on several levels, physical and psychological.

🍃Aoba

Aoba is described as basically a younger version of Izaya; he has an obsession with watching people and Izaya immediately dislikes him for it. With this, we can assume Izaya is uncomfortable with people who are too similar to himself.

That being said, I think this leaves us with two options of who would most likely catch Izaya’s attention: someone who is either too much alike or too unalike.

There are two common tropes in fanfiction for Izaya’s S/O where they are either super intelligent, able to rival even Izaya’s own intellect and counter his manipulative ways or the exact opposite where it is someone who is so openly affectionate and believes in the good of everyone. I personally find the second more viable because, frankly, the first reads like a Mary Sue to me. Few people are canonically immune to Izaya’s manipulation, let alone smarter than him. I think outsmarting someone with a god complex like Izaya would be more likely to piss him off than tug on his heart strings.

On the other hand, a Y/n who, despite seeing the worst of him and perhaps even being a victim of his tactics, remains strong in their morality and shows no malice towards Izaya despite his crimes against them--I think that is the type of person Izaya would develop a romantic interest in. He is surrounded by people with ulterior motives and selfishness--even when Shinra saved him from a knife, it turned out to only be because Shinra knew it would earn Celty’s favor. Izaya expects people to be selfish, twisted, and so on. A pure hearted person would intrigue him and in the beginning he would likely do everything he can to break them, just to prove to himself they are just like all his other humans. His tactics will get more and more personal as he gets desperate--instead of having random gang members he pays to kidnap them, it will be he himself showing up to smooth talk them. He would do things he has done in canon which are, objectively, pretty awful: lying about others around them, setting them up for a crime they did not commit, goading them into committing suicide, etc.

Izaya is not for the faint of heart.

The thing that would change Izaya’s whole mindset is realizing that, despite all he has done to them, they still care about him if only for the mere fact he is another person. Saving him, protecting him, or defending him in some way--even when he certainly does not need it--would really get to him. He will, in return, find himself subconsciously protecting them when they need it. He’ll assume he is just doing it out of some weird form of politeness after they had worked so hard of him but it progressively happens more and more to the point he eventually realizes it is much deeper than that.

In his field of work, having people he cares about is dangerous. There are many people who would like to get back at him. Because of that, he has learned to be careful with the few things important to him and that will extend to his S/O. Sometimes he comes off as slightly paranoid with his requests (albeit always spoken in his usual seemingly unbothered manner) and very quickly gets them to move into his apartment where he knows it's safer. Unfortunately, being in a serious relationship with Izaya requires the sacrifice of some independence. Not only is it too dangerous to do some things alone, but Izaya also keeps tabs on all of their devices and essentially knows their location at any given time. Part of it is just Izaya being Izaya (namely an informant and all-knowing “god”), but most of it is concern for them because they’re his now. They are his responsibility, their safety takes priority above even his own.

Getting Izaya to fully trust them is a long, rocky journey but once he does, he never second-guesses his judgement. While he trusts them around his work and knowing secrets not even Namie has access to, he does try to keep them separated from his work, if only for their own safety.

As far as vulnerability goes, Izaya will share things with his S/O that he wouldn’t tell anyone else but there will always be some thoughts and feelings he keeps to himself. It isn’t that he doesn’t trust them, there are just things he feels he can’t share or possibly doesn’t want to speak aloud.

You asked to what lengths I would be willing to pry to get Izaya to be vulnerable but I don't think Izaya is the type you can pry with. He is a master of deciet, manipulating him or trying to sweet talk things out of him is futile. His S/O can only offer the assurance that they are there and show their unconditional love and support, Izaya will open up about what he wants to on his own time. His S/O can, however, sometimes persuade Izaya to take breaks on the nights he is overthinking and working himself too hard. He values their opinion above anyone elses and genuinely listens to their advice when reasonable. If his S/O notices he is stressed and tries to "surprise" him (it's almost impossible to actually surprise him) with his favorite sushi or a nice shoulder massage, he will be very appreciative and sure to repay them for their efforts later on.

Finally, Izaya is not good at dealing with others’ emotions in a sympathetic way. If his S/O needs comfort, Izaya can only listen and offer logical advice. He has no problems getting rid of physical threats but when it comes to invisible enemies like insecurity, Izaya is at a loss.

Overall, I think Izaya is an emotionally stunted bb who never expects to fall in love until it happens but, once it does, he is all in.
