for a pro hero, Shouto is impossibly hopeless with all things social media. it's not that he doesn't have the ability to understand it- he just doesn't care. all his accounts are managed by his agency, and while he has all the necessary apps installed on his phone—not by choice—they sit there gathering dust, never once opened by his own hand.

so he’s sitting in his favorite soba restaurant one weekend, his mop of red-and-white hair tucked under a baseball cap, enjoying the pleasing hum of the kitchen when Bakugou poses the question. who, as always, is taking up far too much space, one leg casually draped over a neighboring chair. Shouto dips his head in silent thanks when Midoriya returns with their orders, setting the trays down before shoving Bakugou's leg off the chair to make room for himself. the blonde lets out a grunt of irritation but chooses instead to refocus his attention on his true target.

Shouto takes a bite of noodles, chewing carefully before responding. “i have not…made my intentions known yet,” he says calmly, gaze not leaving the dish in front of him. "that would be a bit of an invasion of privacy, wouldn't it?"

"jesus, you sound like an old geezer. s’not like i’m askin’ ya to climb into her bedroom window! it’s just so you can see some pictures of her, dumbass!" Bakugou snaps, but quickly reveals his true purpose with a sly grin, "and then, so can we."

Shouto shoots him a sharp look but then lets out a sigh. it’s not a conversation he hasn’t had before with his fellow heroes. “you’re not going to let this go, are you."

Bakugou just grins sharply.

Midoriya shakes his head. “you’re too nosy for your own good, Kacchan,” he murmurs, but then, casting Shouto a sideways glance, adds, “you could try opening instagram and just typing in her name. takes two seconds. besides, there’s a good chance her account’s private anyway, so we—i mean you—might not see anything."

with another resigned sigh, Shouto finally complies and does just that, if only to get the two off his back so he can enjoy his noodles. he frowns when he can't find the app for a second, then hesitates again, taking in the unfamiliar interface. eventually locating the search bar with some direction from Midoriya, his thumbs tap on the screen as he begins typing.

"how do i know which one is her?" he says, his tone slow and measured.

Bakugou groans, tipping his head back dramatically. "well do any of the small circular pics look like her, genius?"

a heavy silence stretches between them, punctuated only by the soft clatters of utensils from other patrons. Shouto nods once, his gaze fixed on the screen. then, after another pause that feels even longer, he asks, "what does ‘follow back’ mean?"

"wait-" Midoriya rushes to say, "don't hit that just yet."

it’s too late. the two other heroes watch, mouths agape, as Shouto’s thumb, deliberate and unhurried, lifts from the screen.

Bakugou lets out a snort. "well if she doesn't know you’re sweet on her yet, she will now. she's gonna see you followed her. oh, the noble half-and-half, internet stalkin' pretty girls now."

Shouto’s brows knit together, his voice edged with defensiveness. “you told me to do this.”

“i ain’t tell ya to follow her just yet. was just meaning for you take a look. there are rules to this stuff. you’re a public figure and she’s not, idiot."

Shouto squints down at the screen as if trying to make sense of it all. “i can see pictures now. i couldn’t before.”

"that means she accepted your follow, it’s a good sign! she must be active right now." Midoriya grins broadly. "definitely doesn't hurt that she was already following you."

Bakugou leans back, looking far too pleased with himself. "oh man...you know you just told the whole world you want to bang this chick, right?"

Shouto casts Midoriya a dubious look, who grimaces and says, "you...do only follow like fifty people, pretty much all of whom are heroes. one of your fans...and you do have a lot of them...will likely notice, if they haven't already."

deciding to ignore this bit of unsettling information, Shouto looks back down, lips curving downward in a slight frown. "and these pictures...anyone can see them? "

"well if the account's public, sure." Midoriya glances at Bakugou questioningly. "but if it's private, which it must have been, no. only her followers can.”

"oh." Shouto’s expression softens. "good."

"for god's sake," Bakugou snarls, finally snatching the phone from Shouto’s hands, knocking Midoriya’s chopsticks off the table in the process. the green-haired man sighs and ducks down to retrieve them.

“the suspense is killing me. let's see what you've been prattling on about all this...oh.” Bakugou freezes. “what."

Midoriya’s head pops back up from under the table.

Bakugou lets out a long whistle, eyes glued to the screen. his thumb swipes rapidly, post after post, jaw dropping more with every pass. "you've been keepin' this to yourself? christ, half-and-half.”

Midoriya leans into Bakugou’s space to take a look. his brows lift, eyes widening as he glances between the phone and their friend. "she's the one? she's...something else, Shouto."

Shouto wrestles his phone back from Bakugou and glances down at the screen, which is paused on one of the older posts. he lingers for a moment, gaze softening as he looks at the image frozen in front of him: you, looking over your shoulder, your pretty features lit up by the golden glow of some late afternoon light. his thumb kisses the edge of your smile on the screen. "yes," he says, "i know."

there's something warm and unfamiliar in his tone that makes Midoriya beam proudly at Bakugou, who rolls his eyes.

and then—

"what does it mean if the heart symbol here is now red?"

thinking about men who are so much bigger than you; who are so protective and territorial over you, yet absolutely delight in teasing and prodding at you, seeing all of the ways they can make you squirm and shudder. whether it’s making you ride their fingers that barely fit inside you until your legs are shaking, or snaking their tongue around and sucking away in between your legs until you can barely form words, that lovingly smug look residing in their eyes as they look up at you.

blue - mer!leon kennedy x reader || i am not immune to vievvie's thoughts

The glass is haunting.

Whenever you pass it, it's always empty, and considering the size of that god-awful glass enclosure, you can only assume it's some sort of merfolk or mershark. It wouldn't be something new. Umbrella was ratched when it came to animal experimentation. Data gathering. Intel. The need to be knowledgable in the ocean that no one explores. The best of the best. To crave the knowledge of the unknown. To be wise.

Whenever you pass Luis' tank, no one shows.

You assume it's a shy merfolk, then. Your own mutation of a dolphin isn't much better, consistently playing tricks and refusing to answer to you. The men of the sea, or whatever. You don't really find it in yourself to care.

However, Luis' subject shows once.

Icy blue eyes and a cold blue tail, you pause to stare into his eyes, shudder rippling down your spine as neither of you look away.

He's huge.

He presses up to the glass, staring down at you as you stare back up, and neither of you move. You do not breathe. You doubt he does either, fins not moving, and the two of you stay still.

"Ey, see you met Leon, finally!"

Luis' voice breaks you out of your trance, and you laugh dryly.

"Big guy."

"Loves bluefin."

"Good to know." You stare back down at your clipboard and then at the giant once more. "See you around."

"Catch ya later!"

You miss the way Leon's blues turn dark as you leave.

Because I always love the humans from db going to dbz who have no insane powers & still willing to fight. So bringing back an old background for Laura in this verse; she's a martial artist from another rival school (crane and turtle, but her master is in his own rivalry with crane's master - who is just fixated on roshi, and looks at them as inferior). It's the rabbit school based on the Jade Rabbit/Moon Rabbit - it’s a rabbit that lives on the moon. It accompanies the moon goddess Chang’e and produces the elixir of life by pounding medicinal herbs.

This school specialises in endurance, using froms of "reiki" (it's gonna be explored differently for this) to heal themselves during combat, recover from fatigue quickly as well as draw out fights longer, waiting for their opponents to become tired before striking -- this also means they have to specialise in evation for this to work on strong opponents, as they are primarily weaker. Baguazhang is their primary form of martial arts. They use palms, legs and elbows for striking, infusing energy into each - also, fingers, when striking specific parts of the body to render them useless, and they study the human body intensely in order to strike accurately; they are not allowed to target organs or anywhere that might cause severe damage or death (Laura gets carried away if she gets enraged, which leads to her master scolding her heavily when he sees her attempt this). Mercenary Tao uses Pressure Point Attack and it's very similar to what they use, but I am taking it yoink.

Laura, in this verse, is from Germany, but moved in order to learn martial arts at a young age, and became the star pupil of the Rabbit House.

Dragon ball Z timeline -- is more background, but she is training to make these abilities more deadly for opponents they have to face. She knows how to fly like the rest, and has incooperate her skills into blast waves and defense (so, so similar to the hyuuga clan, who's fighting is based on forms of Baguazhang - and the eyes as well, Laura's turn a brighter white and she is able to examine someone's anatomy / can see through objects).

She is closer to the cast in dragon ball then the others in Z. Definitely still has a grudge against Tien because of their schools. Still pisses everyone off with her attitude.

Weird ship ideas I want for Emily:

Arranged Marriage?

A Deal?

Human!Emily being brought into the darker sides of the world after being so sheltered?

Anyway just Tim who is super clingy and just won't admit!!

THIS IS SOOO REAL OMGGG YESSSS! Tim who's like "pfft I can live without you" but the second you wiggle out of his arms to reach for water while cuddling he's like "hello ? do you hate me!?!?! why would you do this to me!??!?!?!?!?!" n ur like "water. do u want some" n he' like "I knew that :("

and omg... him with his arms around u n chin on your shoulder while you cook n u give him like little scoops of what ur making n he's like "It could use a little more of this or that" WAHHHHHH n how he's tastes is n then goes like "yeah that tastes good" n gives u a gentle kiss I am so ill rn emy ty for this thought I'm gonna rotate it in my head for the rest of the night now <3

HELLO HEISHIN NATION. i am back with my monthly appearances to once again, ramble about heishin!!!! this ramble is about ep 263 (i am back on the detco grind) so sorry for being slightly ia i forget tumblr is a thing sometimes...

- sometime at the beginning of the ep, heiji had called conan over to have heiji's mom's cooking and for him to ALSO watch him in the finals of his match funny thing is he was so evident on shinichi being there that shinichi himself was like "dude you have told me this already ik where im going" shinichi, heiji wants to make sure ur coming okay he's anxious like that them two always sneaking off to call each other too like if i were kazuha and saw heiji running off to call someone, another man at that, i would be losing it

- when mori asked where would heiji take them to look around osaka, he talked about taking them to the police department and some new building that was in the making. this is important bc we can see how excited shinichi gets at the thought of going to those places (meaning heiji had those places in mind JUST for shinichi to see) fellas is it gay to think of places for ur bf to see - also unrelated note but kazuran going to eat dinner together was everything to me <3333 best gfs ever

this one a bit shorter than my other rambles but heishin as always make me insane but thanks for reading if u made it this far ur a real one

O p e n

She is currently sprawled, underfoot, in the way - with no intention of moving. In fact, Lulu might even offer a light boof! that you're in her space.
