#...not that it looks all that different this way but ugh my brain is dumb that's the gist of all things okay? bye

[be-xkyy]

Tw: unprotected sex, rough sex, jealousy, mild abuse, insults, reader bimbo.

Yandere bf! Jock who is the star captain of the school's football team.

He is truly the golden boy.

With his gorgeous smile, blue eyes, and dirty blonde hair. He is surrounded by girls constantly, beautiful girls but he only has eyes for his dumb cute cheerleader girlfriend, YOU.

Always sucking his dick before a game letting him film you as he cums all over your face, pumping his cock until ropes of thick cum paint your face ruining your makeup and staining your hair, he rubs his cock against your shiny lips.

“Ugh– that was so good– what do you say sweetie?”

“Thanks for cumming on my face daddy~”

He smiles when he sees you cheering him on during the game jumping up and down, he licks his lips when he sees your cute little ass and tits bouncing in that tight uniform, you wiggle your pom poms vigorously and blow him a kiss when you see him looking at you. So fucking sweet.

The one who fucks you in the empty locker room after every game, fucking you sweetly when he wins, sucking on your tits, leaving kisses and bites all over your neck as his cock buries deep inside you, he murmurs sweet nothings against your ear.

“Such a pretty girl– so sexy when she cheers on her man”

“God your pussy wants some attention, should I rub it? Of course she wants to fuck– she begs me to rub it”

“I'm gonna give you the best orgasm of your life babe, you'll be full of my cum until next week– Ha”

Oh... but when the team loses he's completely different.

Like now.

He drags you down the halls walking straight to the locker room pushing you inside roughly ignoring your whimper of pain as he locks the door, you rub your arm and try to talk to him “Baby that hurts–”

“Shut the fuck up bitch! What the fuck was that out there?! Were you flirting with the captain of the other team?!”

His voice is filled with anger, he looks at you with furious eyes and you try to back away when he gets closer which seems to annoy him more, he grabs you by the arms pushing you face down on the bench and growls against your hatred.

“Answer me fuck! What the fuck were you doing talking to him? Do you want to bounce on his dick just because he won? Huh?!”

“No! I just wanted to be nice–”.

“Liar! Shit you want to drive me crazy, is that it?! I'm not an idiot I know what I see!”

He yells at you not even letting you finish, he pulls down your extra shorts and panties hard scratching your legs, his hand quickly pulls out his cock the vein running through it is swollen and the weeping tip is red.

“I'm gonna fuck you until you come to your senses you stupid girl. There's no one like me! I'm the only one who would want a girl as dumb as you!”

With that he rams you in all the way, his cock touching your cervix and his balls slapping against your ass, he fucks you mercilessly as his hands squeeze your ass cheeks his fingers dig into your skin tomorrow you'll have bruises.

“Silly girl, acting like a whore... like she doesn't have her man watching her”

Annoyed murmurs escape his lips as he pounds into you like an animal in heat, you let out high pitched moans hiding your face in your arms, he fucks you like he wants to rearrange your insides. Your eyes roll back with each thrust that abuses your G-spot.

“Who’s the only one for you? Come on tell me who’s fucking you so good?”

He asks between gasps and grunts clearly getting close to the edge, your dumb brain takes a while to understand his question not being able to think of anything else but his cock deep inside your pussy, you reply between moans.

“You! You’re the only one for my daddy! You, you, you!”

“Good girl, at least you’re smart about something~”

Your walls clench at his words and you squeeze your eyes shut, your skin is hot and you feel fire in your veins, the orgasm is approaching and your toes curl as you cum your love juices wet his cock.

He growls as your walls clench tightly around his throbbing cock and as his body tenses with the impending orgasm he pulls out of your pussy pumping furiously as he explodes, covering your ass and back with his hot cum that stains your top.

“Shit— that was great, that's a nice pussy you have baby”

He says as he smears his cum all over your back and ass with his fingers and you hum tiredly but happily, the moment interrupted when someone tries to open the closed door, the handle turning vigorously.

“What are you doing in there? Open the door right now!”

Damn it, it's the coach...

aced it

tutor!jisung x reader

genre: smut (minors dni 18+), college au, fingering, reader is bad at math but not that dumb, jisung is a bit manipulative.

wc: 2.1k

synopsis: since your finals were coming up, you desperately needed a tutor. so doing what every normal person would do, you asked the top student for help, but his idea of studying under pressure was far from what you had imagined.

authors note: tysm for over 1k notes on practice makes perfect!!! i never expected to get this amount on my first post, i couldn’t be more grateful…🥹 i’ll try my best to post more!! i hope you like this too hehe

➶ ｡˚ 　° ──────────────────

you tried your best to keep up in lectures, finish assignments on time, bullshit your way through the discussion boards, but when it came to exams, you were a lost cause.

"ugh, i don't get it at all!" you groan and drop your pen onto the notebook while pressing a hand to your forehead out of frustration. all the formulas you went over are slipping from your mind, no matter how hard you try to focus.

jisung exhales and shakes his head as he's closing his laptop that’s decorated in space and alien stickers. "no, this isn't working out." he says and leans back against the wall. "we need to try a different method."

as he opens the textbook which replaces the laptop and starts flipping through the pages, you flop backward onto his bed and sigh so loudly that the vibrations shake the empty glass of water on the table.

the noise makes his head turn towards you. at first, it’s like as if he’s studying you; his eyes on you, scanning, thinking, calculating.

you can feel the piercing gaze burning holes in your skin. you suddenly think of searching study methods online, but before you grab your phone, you feel the mattress dip under his weight.

he moves closer to you, so close that his thigh is pressed against yours and you can feel his warmth seep through your shorts. you almost freeze for a second. “jisung—“

he cuts you off with a “shh.” he’s acting like this between you is completely normal, like you two were always used to sharing such intimate contact.

while you’re confused, embarrassed and don’t know what’s going on, he’s focused, unbothered and calm. it’s like as if he has something figured out.

as you were staring into his eyes, you felt his hand move to your thigh, slowly, as if he was testing how far he could go. just below the hem of your shorts, his warm fingers press against your skin.

“…what are you doing?” you manage to blubber out, because you didn’t trust yourself to speak.

“trying something else,” he says and his thumb brushes, which makes you shiver.

this is new, dangerous and completely out of your comfort zone, but you make no effort to move away.

jisung is still studying your face, searching for any sign of resistance, and then he tilts his head. “i thought you said you needed motivation.” your heart skips a beat as you feel his thumb stroke your thigh again, “maybe this will help.”

your mind urges you to say something, ask what the fuck is he doing, tell him to stop, maybe laugh it off… but that would make you dishonest with yourself.

his fingers are still tracing circles slowly against you, still drifting almost beneath the hem of your shorts, never going too far, but never stopping either.

your pulse is pounding in your ears. you swear you can feel your heartbeat everywhere.

“you’re messing with me.” you say with your voice light, almost like you’re expecting him to deny.

he hums and slightly tightens his fingers. “am i?”

you turn your gaze from his hand to his face, but he’s already looking at you. he’s not grinning, not laughing, just watching, like he’s silently asking you, how far can i take this?

your thighs twitch at the sight of him. as your heart won over the small battle with your brain, you exhale and part your legs just enough to give his fingers more access.

jisung notices immediately and his lips curl into something that’s barely a smile. he doesn’t say a word, but his fingers trail further up your inner thigh, in such a measured way that’s enough to make you tremble. “still think i’m messing with you?” he murmurs.

“…no,” you swallow.

“good,” he leans in closer to you and turns your head to the laptop screen, “now focus.” he must’ve turned it on while i wasn’t paying attention, you think to yourself.

a new equation is in front of you, something basic, it’s something you’d usually solve in seconds. but your brain is empty.

“if you get it right,” he whispers, his fingers still massaging your thigh, “i’ll reward you.” his other hand slides across the sheets, pulling the laptop a bit closer.

“but if you get it wrong…” he hums and tilts his head slightly. you can feel his fingers pressing little bit harder. “then we try something else, okay?”

your legs shift as the heat is pooling in your lower stomach, you’re not sure whether you want to get the answers right or wrong.

you try to focus, but all you can think about is the way he’s pressing his fingertips into your skin. the question is simple, you just have to say what’s the derivative of 5x², but your mouth is dry.

you know the answer to it, you two have gone over this theme hundreds of times, but you can’t open your mouth, your mind is completely blank.

“uh—“ your voice is trembling. you need to answer. “ten x?” you finally breathe out.

for a second, there’s silence. you start to think this is some sort of joke, that he was gonna laugh it off any second.

but inside your shorts, his hand slides higher, his palm presses right over your panties, and he hums, “correct.”

before you reach out to the laptop to read the next question, you feel your underwear get pushed to the side. you don’t have enough time to react as he slides his ring finger inside, which makes your breath catch and your thighs clench.

his finger presses in deeper and your hips instinctively roll forward, chasing more friction, he chuckles at that and his other hand slides up to press against your thigh to keep you still.

“we…we’re supposed to be studying,” you blurt out. he tilts his head and slips his finger in fully, “should we stop then?” you try to reply, but the only thing that’s close to a response from you is the way your hips keep twitching, almost begging him to move his finger, and he curls his finger inside, touching your sweet spot, which makes you let out a small whimper. jisung hums, “thought so.”

you dig your nails into the sheets. yes—it feels good, but it’s not enough. “jisung…” you whisper.

“hmm?” he answers in a mocking tone as his other hand grips your thigh tighter so he keeps you spread for him.

his finger starts moving inside you, but it’s so slow it’s like he’s not completely giving you what you want. though, you can’t bring yourself to protest.

“now, next question,” his voice is low. your eyes are locked on the laptop screen, but your brain is too fuzzy to register any number. you can barely breathe, let alone think.

he must know the effect he has on you as he reads the equation out loud, “derivative of three x squared?” he asks and presses his finger again.

you tremble from the touch, “fuck—“

“that’s not an answer, y/n.” his voice is so calm, not like he’s fingering you, more like he’s genuinely waiting for you to answer him. like you’re actually supposed to focus on fucking math.

it’s not like you’re not trying. you are trying to answer, but the way his finger is pumping inside you so slowly, curving it slightly with each thrust makes you on the edge of craving more.

“come on, baby,” jisung coos and his lips brush your temple, “i know you know this one.”

your hands curl into fists, “i—six x?” you gasp.

he hums in approval and adds another finger, causing your back to arch. given how large his hands are, the stretch is perfect.

before you control yourself, your thighs snap shut against his wrist, your whole body is trembling and you’re completely overwhelmed.

he sighs like he’s disappointed in you. “don’t do that,” he says before using his other hand to pry your legs apart again.

his fingers push deeper and suddenly his thumb brushes over your clit. it’s barely there, enough to tease you, but not enough to satisfy you. it still draws noises from you.

“better,” he whispers and asks a question you don’t even bother registering. you blurt out a random number, hoping you’re right, gasping as you gave him the answer.

he’s silent for a second, until he answers, “wrong,” and presses his thumb down on your clit, hard.

your whole body jerks. a broken moan spills from your lips and your legs almost start closing on him again, but his grip tightens and locks you in place. “you’re gonna have to do better than that, baby.”

his fingers slam into you faster, more deeper. the slow pace he’d set earlier is gone. your body is reacting on it’s own, your hips rolling into his hand, your mouth letting small whimpers every time his fingers thrust in you. you can feel how wet you are based off the slick sounds and how easily he’s moving inside you.

“look at you,” he whispers as he’s watching the way your chest rises and falls, the way your lips part, the way your nails dig into the sheets, “you’re not paying attention at all, is this how you’re going to pass exams?”

you can’t even hear him. physically yes, but your mind is drowning under the pressure of his fingers curling inside you and his thumb massaging circles onto your clit.

it’s so perfect, so precise that you could almost believe he’s playing with your body like he’s been waiting to do this.

but how could that be? jisung, the top student who barely speaks to anyone, who hid his face in glasses when you practically begged him to tutor you for finals.

jisung, who side-eyed you every time you spaced out in lectures, who rolled his eyes when you’d rather scroll on your phone than take notes.

jisung, who sighed dramatically when you showed up to your first tutoring session completely unprepared, who scoffed when you whined about how you’d never pass if he didn’t help you.

jisung, who agreed anyway, who sat beside you for hours, patiently going over problems, reminding you of formulas, watching you struggle.

jisung, who smirked slightly every time you leaned in closer, every time your knee bumped his under the table, every time you chewed on your lip and complained that math was ‘so hard’.

jisung, who was always so calm, so unbothered, so normal.

jisung, who’s completely unraveling you now.

like he’s been waiting to do this, like he’s thought about it, like you didn’t catch up with it.

your thoughts quickly get cut off from the knot in your stomach coiling tighter. “jisung,” you gasp, your words barely audible, “i—i’m gonna—“

he presses harder, his fingers hitting that perfect spot inside you over and over. “you’re gonna cum all over my fingers?”

you nod quickly and desperately. your body is trembling, your stomach is coiling tighter, tighter, tighter—

until he pulls his fingers out. completely.

the loss causes your body to tense, a sharp gasp breaks from your lips and your hips roll down against nothing, chasing friction that’s no longer there. “what the fuck.” you cry out in desperation.

jisung leans back against the headboard like he didn’t just ruin you in the span of five seconds. his fingers, soaked, still dripping with you, lift lazily to his lips.

you stare at him as he licks them clean. you can’t even process the fact that he just left you so empty, so fucking desperate, so completely on edge.

“you wanna cum?” he asks while smirking, it’s not a question, he knows the answer.

your whole body trembles, thighs still spread for him, pussy throbbing, breath uneven.

“yes,” you say instantly, “yes, yes, yes, please, i need—“

“then ace your exams.”

your brain stalls.

your jaw drops.

“…you’re joking.”

jisung shakes his head, like this is just another normal conversation, like he didn’t just lick your arousal off his fingers.

“you don’t get to finish,” he says simply, “not until you earn it.”

your nails dig into the sheets, “you’re insane.”

“i said i’d help you,” he answers, “but i never said i’d make it easy.”

you shudder. you’re still clenched tight, still throbbing, still sitting at the edge of your orgasm, still waiting for him to slam his fingers back inside you.

he knows. he’s still sitting there, fully clothed, perfectly composed, like he didn’t just completely fuck you over and left you aching for him.

you can’t even say anything.

“better start focusing more,” he hums, stretches and goes back to his phone, completely unbothered.

I've seen it be brought up a little bit recently about the racism towards BigB in the Life Series fandom and I wanna throw something out there that I think will help people.

The fandom is made up of majority white people, and the majority of you probably have an unconscious bias.

When you read that your first thought is probably something like "no, not me! I definitely think of everyone equally! The reason I'm not a BigB fan is actually because of XYZ reason!"

The thing about it is that it's unconscious. You don't think about it, don't notice it unless you're actively looking for it. You can be biased against or for something without even knowing it. And this does apply to other things (women, fat people, disabled people, ETC) and to many other situations, but for this post I'll stay focused on race and the fandom specifically.

I'm white and I was raised by racist people. And while I never adopted any of those beliefs myself, it rubs off on you in ways you don't notice.

It's honestly a bit difficult to give a good example, but let's say I saw a video of someone complaining about having to take the bus to work. If that person was black, I would usually think something like "ugh this is so boring." "Nobody cares about your problem." "You should have thought about XYZ solution first before posting." But if they were white, I would have just scrolled past without caring at all.

Not that every thought I had was quite that active though. It could also be something like, if you put two drawings in front of me that were completely equal in skill, but one was made by a black person and the other a white person, I would have just inherently liked the one by the white person more. But replace that black person with another white person and I would have liked them both equally. Replace that white person with another black person and I would have been equally as critical to both.

And I wouldn't even realize it. I wouldn't even be thinking about the person's race at all. But my brain did it unconsciously.

You have to be actively thinking about it and catching yourself when you do it. You have to actively correct yourself when it happens.

So think really hard about it. Think about different moments you've seen of BigB, either clips you've seen from other's videos or his own videos you've watched. Did you find him boring? A bit annoying? A little dumb?

Now think about those moments and imagine a white person doing the exact same thing. Think really hard about it. What if it was Grian or Scar or Mumbo in BigB's place?

I'm serious, stop for a few minutes an think about it.

Does your opinion on it change? Is it suddenly more entertaining? Is it funnier? Does the moment become endearing?

If you do this and find out that actually, yes, you have had all these unconscious biases, I have one more thing to say. I didn't realize this until I was about nineteen. It's been about three years and I still catch myself. You're not going to stop thinking like this immediately, it's going to take time to correct yourself. Hell it might never stop for all I know. But keep up at it! And make sure you apply it outside of just your fandom stuff as well! :)

[awkward-walking-potato]

saw you wanted some wade requests so.... how about wade x a scatterbrained (probably has adhd) reader who always calls themselves stupid whenever they forget what they are doing \ walk into a room and forget what they were supposed to do?

Forget-Me-Nots

You stood in the middle of the kitchen, staring blankly at the open refrigerator. The cool air wafted over your face as you tried to remember why you had walked in here in the first place. You were sure it was important—maybe something for dinner? Or a snack? You couldn’t recall, and the longer you stood there, the more frustrated you became.

With a sigh, you closed the fridge door and leaned against the counter, muttering to yourself. “Ugh, I’m so stupid. Why can’t I remember anything?”

“Did someone say ‘stupid’? I’m pretty sure that’s a code word for needing more Deadpool in your life,” came a voice from the doorway. Wade strolled into the kitchen, a lopsided grin on his face as he made his way over to you. “What’s going on, babe?”

You glanced up at him, feeling a bit sheepish. “I came in here for something, but I completely forgot what it was. I feel so dumb. This happens all the time.”

Wade’s grin softened into something more tender as he reached out to ruffle your hair playfully. “First of all, you’re not dumb. Not even close. You’re just running on a different frequency than most people—one that happens to be way more interesting, might I add.”

You couldn’t help but smile at his words, even though the frustration still lingered. “I don’t know, Wade. It just feels like my brain’s always all over the place. Like I can’t focus on one thing for too long, and I keep forgetting stuff.”

Wade’s eyes sparkled with mischief as he pulled something out of his pocket and handed it to you. “Well, that’s where I come in, babe. Ta-da!”

You looked down to see a small, brightly colored sticky note in your hand. On it, in Wade’s messy handwriting, were the words: You came in here for the snacks, didn’t you?

You blinked in surprise, and then a laugh bubbled up from your chest. “Wait, how did you—?”

“Because I know you, that’s how,” Wade said, looking way too pleased with himself. “And also because I’m a genius. But mostly the first thing. I figured you might get sidetracked, so I wrote you a little reminder earlier. Just in case.”

Your heart melted at the thoughtfulness behind the gesture, and you looked up at him with a mixture of affection and gratitude. “Wade, that’s so sweet of you. And, yeah, I was definitely thinking about snacks.”

Wade’s grin widened. “Called it! Now, let’s raid the pantry and find something good. I think we’ve got some chocolate stashed away somewhere.”

As the two of you searched through the cabinets, you couldn’t help but feel a warm glow of appreciation for Wade’s efforts. He didn’t just see your scatterbrained moments as a quirk to be tolerated—he saw them as an opportunity to show how much he cared about you. It was one of the many reasons you loved him so much.

Later that evening, as you were getting ready for bed, you found another sticky note taped to your bathroom mirror. This one read: Brush your teeth, beautiful. And don’t forget to floss—I know you hate it, but your smile’s worth it.

You chuckled, shaking your head as you did exactly what the note suggested. Wade had a knack for knowing exactly what you needed, even before you realized it yourself.

Climbing into bed, you found yet another note tucked under your pillow: You’re not stupid. You’re amazing, and I’m the luckiest guy in the world to have you. Now, get some sleep—dream of me, will ya?

You clutched the note to your chest, feeling your eyes well up with tears, though they were the happy kind. Wade always knew how to lift your spirits, to remind you of your worth, even when you were feeling down on yourself.

When Wade finally joined you in bed, you turned to him and snuggled close, wrapping your arms around him as you whispered, “Thank you, Wade. For everything.”

He kissed the top of your head, his arms encircling you protectively. “Anything for you, babe. You’re my whole world, scattered brain and all. And don’t worry—I’ve got plenty more notes where those came from.”

You smiled against his chest, feeling a sense of peace wash over you as you drifted off to sleep. Wade might have been unpredictable and wild, but when it came to you, he was steady, thoughtful, and endlessly loving.

The next morning, you woke up to find a sticky note on your nightstand: Good morning, sunshine! Remember to take your meds and have breakfast. I made pancakes—don’t let them get cold!

You grinned, feeling a surge of affection for your wonderfully chaotic boyfriend. With Wade by your side, you knew you could face anything—even the most scatterbrained of days.

[tyunkus]

all txt members r so cute, but i have them all stuck in my head in different ways like yeonjun fucking your throat while taking a video of you doing it just bc !! and soobin continuously sending you videos and photos of him cumming in ur panties bc u can’t please the poor boy as ur in public, and beomgyu being all tough but then acts oh so different in bed w whimpers and loud moans coming out of him, then taehyun .. i feel like taehyun would fuck you any place he could and when hes out in public w u he teases u like by rubbing his hand up and down your thigh, getting a little too close for comfort tho .. and when i think of kai i think of him trying to be gentle at the start but then has u moaning his name !! or umm .. kai being shy for his size even tho like damn thats the biggest uve seen wtff !!

AHHHHH u have the biggest brain ever anon (more under the cut!)

yeonjun who runs his hand through your hair while you suck him off and thinks to himself wow my girlfriend looks pretty fucking hot. casually taking his phone from the nightstand n starts recording you - youre a fucking vision like this, kneeling between his thighs, hands placed primly on your own while u suck him off T_T and yeonjuns fingers still threaded in your hair and he uses his gentle hold on your head to push you down further n further.. slowly breathing out these scratchy n pitchy moans, the sound of your throat constricting around his dick only riles him up even more

soobins so fucking insatiable ugh! what a needy pet always ruining your panties with his cum and hes not even ashamed, sends you visual evidence while ur out at work or running errands!!! shaky camerawork but you get the gist - soobin fucking his thick cock with his hand, letting out all these wobbly whimpers n pretty noises while he strokes himself to completion right on your pretty lace panties >:( hes so gonna get it later, acting like such a slut in your notifications, so many typos and choppy sentences cuz you know hes fucking himself silly while hes typing them

bratty beomgyu <3 such a pain during the day, teasing you and provoking you in all sorts of ways... sneaky hands drifting up your legs or his lovely lips pressed against your neck before he leaves a bite there..... but even if you scold him he doesnt care, just smirks at you and murmurs, "what're you gonna do about it, princess?" what you'll do is this - straddle his thighs and spread his legs all nice and pretty for you, leave him pretty much unable to move while you set your legs on top of his and start playing with his cock like hes just your plaything! see how he starts crying, so loud and messy, cant even talk properly, your dumb lil pet >:)

taehyun is such a horndog i swear you cannot have even a moment of peace with that man theres always something with him! whether its his hands sneaking up your thighs or his hot breath on your neck or his fingers sliding underneath your panties to cup your pussy taehyun is always up to no good, just loves to rile you up n overstep a line juuuust a little bit, cuz its fun and it always leads to him fucking you someplace where anyone could walk in - maybe with his fingers, from behind and underneath your skirt, or maybe on his cock, against a wall while he leaves marks all over ur pretty skin <3

hyuka trying and failing miserably to be a sweet considerate boyfriend because your tight lil cunt just feels too good :( dont be mad at him okay he cant help it, gets so lost in the feeling, eyes rolled back n head tipped back to expose his throat, you'd think he forgot about you but nope, he still has his clever fingers playing with ur clit :3 oh and seeing his cock for the first time GOD you know how the tips of his ears get red when hes embarrassed yeah he'd look so cute all flushed when you're on your knees in front of him, pumping his cock n telling him how you never thought hed be this big .. <333333

[littleperson404]

look who finally has a name and the start of a ref sheet

this mf

gonna put tober lore (i think?) below this cut yeet

no fucking clue where i got the name tober, so lets get that out of the way. but he's 100% my fursona

this name came to me, like... a few weeks ago. i didnt know what to do with it but it was rotating in my mind so fast it was generating electricity. so i threw it onto a horse follower in cotl. there tober sat, for weeks, in the back of my mind. ONLY TODAY did my brain finally connect that i wanted my fursona to be named tober. so he is tober

my whole goal with tober is to look like a soft boi. a very sweet little man. it took me almost 2 hours to make that headshot. i think a good chunk of it was stalling bc i was in a call and we were blabbin and i got into horse facts bc weeee special intrest lore dump. all so i could explain what tober is based on. the right picture took less than a minute bc i was showing how i tend to draw him... and im actually very happy with the goofy lil quick doodle? like it looks better than the other quick doodles i've done like that??

tober is based on cob horses. slightly more specifically a north swedish horse. cobs are, basically, draft ponies. its a type of build rather than any one breed. short n stocky, like me. i just.... really really like them. theyre so cute

i loathe needing to draw his body, and loathe even more figuring out his legs

fun fact, tober has a cowlick bc i have a cowlick. i hated it for the majority of my life bc ugh dumb hair. but then i played around with styling it at different lengths and now its my default. my cowlick now makes a v nice, like... fringe. anyway, im aiming to do that with tober too bc i love my goofy ass hair

[zeezelweazel]

imagine lottie being mean towards everyone but has a big sweet spot just for you :( <333 even before you’re dating, and everyone notices it but reader is so damn oblivious <3333

Lottie Matthews| Not them, just you|

______________________________________

I just watched status update, yes just for courtney, and omg

You can't tell me Charlotte isn't just pre crash Lottie

"I will eat your children" ok ma'am 😋

I need more mean Lottie in my life.

Anyway enjoy this fluff amongst all the filth I've been writing for the past few days.

____________________________________________________

Lottie Matthews, rich and popular, everyone knows her name. When she walks down the halls of the school people either shrink away from her or look at her with jealousy and envy.

"Ugh, I don't get why everyone is so obsessed with her, she's just a bitch."

Shauna shrugged at Jackie's complaint. They're on the team with Lottie and have both experienced how mean the girl can get, sometimes for no reason at all.

"She's not that bad Jackie."

Both of them turn to look at you. Then they look at eachother. Shauna sighs when Jackie scoffs.

"Oh please, you only say that because you're the only one she's never been mean to."

You tilt your head confusion written across your face. I mean, she hasn't been mean to you but surely there are other people in the school she treats with kindness. Oh right, what about...

"Natalie! She's her best friend, right? There's no way she's mean to her best friend."

It's Shauna that speaks up this time, a deadpan look in her face.

"Have you seen them interact? Like, at all?"

You frowned in though and opened your mouth to respond when the bell rung.

You arrived in class just a bit early, no one else was here yet. You picked your usual seat and started laying out your books for literature class when someone else walked in. You looked up to see no other than Lottie Matthews herself. She sits a few rows behind you but this time she doesn't go to her usual seat. She seems almost nervous when she approaches you.

"Hey, uh, can I sit next to you?"

You look around the empty class room and wonder why she wants to sit next to you when her usual seat is available. It's probably because these seats are closer to the board or something.

"Oh yeah, sure."

A few minutes passed and you noticed Lottie was acting different. She seemed to be pondering something. You were about to ask her if something's wrong when Jeff and Randy ran into the classroom, hitting eachother and laughing. They didn't seem to notice that Lottie was sitting next to you because they ran straight into her bag knocking some of her things on the floor.

"What the fuck, are you two idiots brain dead?! Can't you fucking see?!"

Jeff and Randy stood there frozen. You sighed and got up to help Lottie gather her things. Lottie was still yelling at the two boys but when she noticed you were about to get up she put her hand in yours.

"It's okay Y/N I'll get them. You don't need to get up." She smiled sweetly at you. Jeff and Randy looked between eachother, just like Shauna and Jackie did a few minutes ago, but you were only looking at Lottie. She's so pretty.

You're snapped out of your thoughts when you hear a laugh from the door. You and Lottie look up to see Van, who's still giggling, and Tai whose eyes have rolled back all the way back to her brain. Lottie seemed to be signalling something to Van with her eyes. The ginger raised her hands in defense and walked towards her seat.

You giggled alongside the rest of your group who was laughing at Lottie's flushed and embarrassed face.

"She was so damn obvious, like I can't believe you didn't get it earlier."

You rolled your eyes half heartedly at Nat.

"It wasn't that bad. She was just a bit romantic with me."

Tai looked at you with her ' seriously? You're playing dumb? ' face.

"She was cussing at everyone like a sailor just for existing but when it came to you she was all like ' oh Y/N you don't have to ' ' hey Y/N, how's your day been? '." Taissa said in a mocking, high pitched tone.

The group went back to laughing hysterically while Lottie tried to defend herself.

"Hey I never said that plus I sound nothing like that Tai!"

Lottie crossed her arms over her chest when your friends seemed to be laughing harder at Lottie's attempt to defend herself. Her frown was replaced by a soft smile when you placed your head on her shoulder.

My unhinged reactions to the chaotic ride that is The Folk of the Air series ((first two books only bc I'm only 30% through The Queen of Nothing soooo ---- no spoilers plsss))

The Cruel Prince Worst Betrayals:

TARYN - MA'AM!!?????!??? You knewww?? you knew Locke was playing both of y'all??? and you weren't even ensorcelled or whatever?!?!? GIRL?! "if you let me seduce your sister in front of you and keep your mouth shut it proves that I love you" I'M sorry?!?!!??? I absolutely cannot. Someone will need to give me some serious break down of why tf I shouldn't jump in there and smack the bitch myself for being so stupid and betraying her sister like that smh ((more on this bs later bc i've made it far enough through TQON to know things))

JUDE!!!!!!!! - Girl why tf are you gonna do my boy Cardan dirty like that???? He finally TRUSTED YOUR ASS okay?! he is clearly a lil bby who has never had a hug and never felt loved and is v much into you so maybe you should be NICE TO HIM (or mean bc hes into that obvs) but like -- you put the damn crown on his head when he SPECIFICALLY ASKED YOU NOT TO?!??????? oof

The Wicked King:

I sat there really trying to figure out who tf betrayed Jude already when Nicasia's jealous ass said that and like I knew it was not my boy Cardan bc he has never done anything wrong in his entire life and he has a plan and reasons and you can't tell me any different okay!? someone ((JUDE)) just hug the damn boy and pat his lil head and tell him everything is gonna be okay pls?? and I knew that boy Locke and stupid idiot Traitor Taryn were sus. Obvs Madoc is a dumb murder bitch so like?? DUH he was gonna do something stupid since you know, he already fucking committed treason. I just sat there from page one waiting for those three to pull some stupid shit to betray Jude and OBVS I WAS RIGHT ! those stupid idiot dumb dumbs can't help themselves but betray Jude! hate them allllllll hate hate hate

but the scream i screamed when the Ghost of all damn people - (me picturing him as some kinda cute lil spy cutie) - called for Jude in that tower and was like "naaaahhh I worked for Dain bitch, not your ass" I'm???? sorrryyy??? betray ME?! the READER OF THIS BOOK?!??! excuse you!

but also the way Cardan was like "tell me you hate me" and "i want to tell you so many lies" and "i'm a sad lil bby and nobody has ever cared about me" and "i trusted you" and "marry me" and "crawl to me" crawl to meee????? sir. and he sent her ass to the mortal world but did not deny her and did not revoke their marriage so likeeee??? jude girly use your damn brain okay babes i know its in there somewhere so pls just get back to your 4D chess game you had in book 1 and realize this man loves you and is trying to PROTECT YOU OKAY ugh!!!!!

Currently reading The Queen of Nothing so like.... doing my damn best to fly through this book so I can finally look at fanart and fandom shit okay? gh

[ygodmyy20]

Okay I finally am getting around to this post! It's the 'Fuck how can mob psycho help me in so many ways god damnit I hate and love this show' post!

Shigeo joining the body improvement club, and everything about this part of his story is so personal to me. I just have to talk about it.

So as we all know at the start of the story, Shigeo joins the body improvement club to impress Tsubomi. Thats it. Thats the goal. He also joins because he wants to get stronger and not rely on his psychic powers but really like...the main reason is to impress her.

And this isn't new. A character wanting to get fit, lose weight, change some physical part of themselves for a crush is SO common in stories that you barely notice it.

But what I love, what I ADORE is how this progresses and changes.

This gif from an amazing AMV by @thekagepro24 and it just UGH hits me so hard it is so perfect!!! I could watch this 5 second gif over and over and over again

I just am. I just am dying while running, I just am making progress, I just am enjoying this because I really like it.

This puts everything I feel into visuals (it's so gooooood watch the AMV!!! DO IIIIIIT)

So many times society tells us to change something about ourselves, or we tell ourselves to change for the appeal of others.

Lose weight so people think you're pretty.

Get fit so you can get into clothes that make you look hot.

Get swol to make a person think you're attractive.

You are the one and only you, this is your one and only body. So why are you working out, why do you WANT to get "swol" who are you trying to impress. Is it for yourself? A crush? Society?

I have battled with the above for so long. I come from an athletic background, and did a lot of sports growing up, but I have never been small. I have battled with weight my whole life and had my own shitty bouts with ED.

I have been in therapy, I have read books, I have watched videos, I've been in and out of PT for nearly 5 years because of a lower back and hip pain that NEVER went away.

I never figured out WHY i wanted to exercise. It just always was "To lose weight" because I couldn't get that goal out of my head for years and years and years.

But then I watched mob psycho 100.

And I started a new type of physical therapy.

And was it mp100 or was it the therapy finally working, who can say which did it—probably both—but one day I thought...

....maybe I should just go for a run...for 5-10 mins. Just to see how it feels. It went against all parts of my athlete brain (because 10 mins is too short to see "gains"....which is dumb but whatever)

I thought of Shigeo and how he basically passed out every time he ran for like 2 mins, but he got better. He had to start from 0, well...kinda like negative 5 really. But then he was doing so much not even a few months in!

35 pushups is so hard!!! You go my boi.

Shigeo started off doing it all for Tsubomi, for others, and even if he really wanted to do it to improve himself I think it was a secondary goal initially. Main goal was to impress someone. Secondary was to get stronger.

But then the marathon happened. And those goals SWITCHED! DURING THE RACE! just....man it hit me. It hit me hard. THAT WHOLE EPISODE IS JUST A LOT FOR ME GOD DAMN

He ran for her initially but he continued running for himself. He continued working at it because he wanted to and in the end, after everything, after confession arc, after all that

This scene!!! makes me cry happy tears!! look at how happy he is UGH IT JUST IS SO UGGGHHHHHHH

Anyway if you made it this far, know that everyones journey through their body improvement, mental improvement, emotional improvement is different. We all have to tackle it in the way that works for us.

It took me nearly 10 years to start again because of this beautiful anime connecting the right dots in my brain.

Every journey is different, but just keep fighting on and you'll figure it out!

[the-blossica-fan]

Personality Swap Phenomena:

Let's give a couple.

Ezra and Medicine Pocket

Mondlicht and A Knight

Eagle and Sotheby

Click and Regulus

And lastly J and Poltergeist. Have fun!

(P.S. - No, I will not get out of the kitchen! Now could you remove the rope, please?)

Every time I'm not looking at you it feels like you put water in boiling hot oil and wait for me to notice/silly

Let's start with the easy. There's no easy, let's go from the beginning.

Ezra is the well known sweet, dense, "Uhm actually" nerdy human individual of the suitcase, everyone is used to his weird timed comments about some phenomenon that somehow had to do with the conversation, not for an evil and mischievous laugh to appear when you asked him for an explanation.

His love for mushrooms is still there... For mischievous purposes. He would bite a harmless mushroom whenever he felt the need to bite. He would never chomp anyone, he's not made for that.

It's endearing and scary to see him with a face that almost screams "I'm about to have the zoomies", very puppy like, but the kind of puppy that bites anyone and will absolutely make someone fall because it got in the way.

He'd be hella sarcastic as well, not responding sweetly and filled with comprehension and curiosity, but instead with a heart piercing sarcasm that's not expected of him.

"Eh? So you don't even know which is edible? BHEAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH- wait, wait you're serious?! BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH"

And

"Ugh, you're really that dumb? Please, my mushrooms have more brain than you and they don't even have one."

Spathodea had an urge to punch him, she was contained by Desert Flannel and then handed over to the only two people who could calm her down.

Medicine Pocket. The mischievous crazy genius of Laplace... So sweet, smiling with that row of shark teeth and offering to help as much as possible.

Positively unsettling.

They'd be dense as hell, and very curious too in a way that doesn't suit his face made for frowning and sarcasm. His interests are not reduced to one thing, and you'd expect to see them chomping on a burger like that's the world's biggest delicacy, but no

They're actually reading a book. READING. Not chomping on it or scribbling out curses and obscene words whenever they find it funny.

People are scared of them, thank you.

Mondlicht and A Knight? You have to be kidding me.

Mondlicht telling dad jokes is something nobody expected.

One day, she woke up and decided that instead of being defensive, glaring at anyone and fighting Pavia for the 888th time, she decided to tell a dad joke to Eagle, and she was left speechless.

Easy going Mondlicht. As in, she's no longer on her toes, staring at every corner looking for danger or trying to act more grown up than she actually is. She's just there taking a sip of her tea and reading the newspaper.

"So, how you bean, miss 37?" "BEAN?!"

Though she's not lazy, she's still pretty hardworking and responsible. Just in a different way now, no longer as serious and contemplating as before.

A Knight would be a really serious knight now. He'd carry his sword around, searching the suitcase for dangers hidden in the corners. He wouldn't talk much, short conversations as he's on his way.

"Sorry, I have a lot to do. Take care." Very dry words.

Saying hi to him, expecting a dad joke, just to be greeted by an invisible nod then left alone as he walks away and towards the wilderness.

Yeah he's a very serious knight now, on edge and with his walls up at all times.

Eagle and Sotheby is quite something after watching her (Sotheby's) anecdote.

Eagle forgetting about the scouts code and everything she learned just to grab a critter and hug it with so much affection??? Even the critter is surprised!

The careful, a little paranoid and logical Eagle being replaced by a more affectionate, eager and hyperactive Eagle is something no one expected. She's not making the suitcase explode, but she's certainly not keeping it tidy and clean as usual.

The critters are not used to it but Carbuncles don't care, affection is affection.

Mondlicht is not used to being dragged around by Eagle with such hyperactivity, someone help her.

As for Sotheby...

"Well done Sotheby! You finally got a good grade in common sense!"

"Uh, thanks Ms. Moissan 😓"

She's awkward and careful, no longer making dangerous potions and strange creations, but instead reading over her book over and over again to make sure everything is just as it should be.

Cristallo is sad that Sotheby is no longer jumping up and down and offering her handmade sweets, instead taking care of her carefully and not letting her have fun.

It's a break for some, peace for others and loneliness for some. Good news coming from Vertin: This week's Sharpodontry has been reduced by 40% because nothing is exploding and had to be fixed.

"I would appreciate it if you didn't stop my rock music."

"Regulus did you die?"

Regulus being strangely quiet, polite and chill is something straight out of a weird dream. She still loves rock & roll, a lot, but is not as enthusiastic as usual. She doesn't hold the same hyperactivity and high voice of a captain.

Mr. APPLe even tried to lure her with a new record but she only thanked him politely and went on her merry way.

She doesn't come out of her room a lot, neither does she sleep... Concerning, I agree.

Vertin had to walk it, grab her records and watch her eyes widen in panic as she took these towards the wheel. Only then did Regulus walk out of her room.

Click?!

"This photographer has a lot of things to do, so, out of the way!"

He's passionate about photography, as he should but also weird. He loves taking photos but this time still points it out to everyone with a big grin and confidence.

His camera hangs around his shoulders as he takes in every scene, sometimes taking selfies with the other members and watching their confused face.

Mental Bluetooth's you an image of J hiding behind Pioneer with tears in his eyes.

Poor bug muscular dude, he's stuttering, clinging to his jacket and hiding his face under his helmet. He reminds me of Freddy (1.2).

Isolde tried talking to him and he screeched and ran away as fast as humanly possible, she got so sad. J came back to comfort her with tears in his eyes, shaking in both, fear and anxiety.

Matilda also tried to talk to him and he ended up hiding behind Mercuria, who didn't even look up and continued to take a sip of coconut water.

Indeed, dealing with J is like dealing with a big baby, and unfortunately he's quite needed at the moment so he has to endure the attention.

Poltergeist wore her sheet as a jacket as she ran around with a charming smile and confidence.

"Me? Scared? Hah! Don't joke with that, how could I be scared?"

Holy water be upon ye

She'd try to launch a couple flirty comments towards friends and people would be so shocked to see her not only talking, but flirting and without a sheet covering her face.

The hell???

How to reduce your phone/social media usage

I achieved it (добився успєшного успєха) and I will share my tips with you!

(this post is actually for @will-ruadh I just realized writing it all in notes would be wildly uncomfortable and unreadable)

1) Make a realistic goal

This step has substeps because to make a realistic goal you need to a) look in the mirror and assess where you are now. To do so, you should track your usage. There are programs to do that but your phone might have an in-built feature like mine. When I started I spent around 9 hours every day on my phone (and on some days I spent more). It would be also useful to note which apps you spend the most time on

Then, we move on to b) setting the goal. You might be the kind of person to be able to quit your addictions cold turkey but then stop reading this post, and go watch this video instead. It's quite motivational. If you are not that kind of person, expect small progress. I think my first goal was not going above my average (so, like, 9 hours a day was a limit I set for myself). When I achieved that, I reduced it by an hour (you can reduce it by half an hour or ten minutes, whatever). Now my limit is 5 hours and I rarely break it and when I do I quickly return back to it

2) Praise yourself for progress!

Different people are motivated by different things so this step might be kind of vague and will need some individual work. But I feel like the most important thing is praising yourself for any progress you make. We often learn to be down on ourselves and most of us are not motivated by that so why do it??? Be happy with your little steps. You can reward yourself in different ways if that helps. You might ask for external validation from your friends, whatever works for you. But don't forget that you are doing great! And do not look too far ahead - thinking that "ugh my goal is so small, I spent 9 hours on my phone when I should have spent 5" IS NOT GOOD. Look straight ahead towards your first little goal and when you get there, set another little goal and praise yourself when you achieve it!

Some say it is better to praise consistency rather than "streaks". If you exceed your limits 3 times a month, it's a better result than being consistent the whole month and then relapsing for 2 months. But you can reward yourself for streaks too if you find it fun

3) Don't be too hard on yourself

People might get overwhelmed by regret or other negative emotions. "Ugh, why do I spend so much time doom-scrolling, I am wasting my time" - NOT HELPFUL thinking. Believe it or not, there are objective reasons why you developed this habit. Believe it or not, it must be helpful for your brain somehow. For example, I spend much more time online when I am in stressful situations. Social media feel safe and it distracts me from harsh reality. You have to understand yourself and forgive yourself. Accept yourself to change yourself

And if you fail and fall back into your habit, don't be too mad at yourself (you can be mad at yourself a little though). It's natural that your brain wants to do what it always did instead of restricting itself. You won't always be 100% consistent and it's alright! Get back up and try again

4) Use technical support

This is the part where I advertise dumb apps to you. But first, explore your phone's built-in features! Here's what I did just without installing any additional software:

(now that I wrote until this point I realise I didn't write this in mind that laptop or computer usage might be the problem ugh I am stupid)

Set hours in the morning and the evening when social media apps are not available - this is very helpful if you scroll in bed

Set a limit for general phone usage, specific apps or categories

But then I realised I wanted more features so I went hunting for apps:

StayFree - it is available for Android, iOS, Windows, MacOS, Linux and as a browser extension for Chrome, Safari and Mozilla. It has a lot of options, probably the most out of all the apps I saw. It's helpful if you need specific limits that your basic phone functionality can't provide. It can also block things like the Reels tab in your Instagram and YouTube shorts. It is pretty heavy, though, I need to wait a bit before it opens on my phone

ScreenZen - this app has some functions the former doesn't. I use it to make myself do a little breathing exercise before entering my social media app. It is annoying as heck but sometimes I think to myself "I don't need this right now" and close the app before opening it. I also make it limit my usage by 15 minutes timeframe so every 15 minutes I have to do the exercise again and rethink my choices

With using any apps like this there might be privacy concerns since they need a lot of access to your phone to be able to do what they do. Do your own research etc etc. Both apps are free

You can find other ways to help yourself spend less time. They may differ from one person to another

5) OPTIONAL. Read How We Change (And Ten Reasons Why We Don't) by Ross Ellenhorn

Not like it's going to particularly help but I found this book very healing and insightful when it comes to changing your behaviours and your habits. It is not a practical guide but it is written with love and might help you understand yourself better. It certainly influenced the way I look at some things. My viewpoint is heavily inspired by it, honestly, I feel like I have to give credit where it's due

The End

I can go into more detail on various ways how I do things, so if you have questions you may ask. But honestly, people are so different, what works for me might not be perfect for you. You have to be curious and creative, looking at yourself with an unclouded mind, seeing your internet addiction as a task you are solving rather than a personal failure. The more heavy feelings you attach to it, the harder it is to be unbothered (moisturized, in your lane). Look at your triggers, look at how you respond to different strategies, look at what works and what doesn't. Be curious about the way your mind works. Idk man I love you I want everyone to be happy and pleased with themselves. I am so unbelievably happy I do not scroll all day long. It was so bad and now it is better and it took me two years, I think, maybe more. I believe in you

[pooplyface1423]

Tsudere /sub Jax that pretends to hate the reader but does things to secretly be with them x a fem happy but smart Uzadere that loves being in the circus.She loves adventures,animals,cute things,fighting,food ect! lots of energy too but can be pretty insensitive and a little selfish with a little crush on jax. I feel like at first jax would completely reject liking her then he would be extra mean,then Maybe subconsciously know he likes her amd hates the feeling lol. cus he copes by trying to not have feelings and tries to act "tough". its pretty obvious that the reader is in love with him but his dumb ass cant catch on . She gives lots of compliments which makes him flustered and mad ( he is mad bc he thinks nobody likes him that much, he is mean to her to make her go away but it doesn't work ) but he pretends not to care. the reader would definitely confesses first tho. Sorry for such a long request its just that not many people write jax in this sorta way so i had to be detailed lol. also if you don't wanna use female pronouns you can make it non gender ofc 😅tysm for even reading such a long thing! and you don't have to do this at all lr you can switch it up. Anything is VERY appreciated tho😊

DUDE this question was long but its a very good one so lemme write it.:]

Warning: Kissing (just like one but still) CRINGEEE and that it.

also Y/N is female just so ya'll know but not a lot is said about her gender here so could be non binary.

Lil backstory : When You first got here it was around 7 months before pomni gets into the circus. your reactions to seeing all the supposed people was terrifying u were laughing your brains of since u thought it was all just a big prank but once u realized it was real u were just stunned. I mean u were still amazed like wow i'm in a virtual reality type of reaction. And about what u look like idk that up to yourself but lets say Ur like a type of animal could be a cat or something else. U were always ecstatic to be in the circus and everybody even Caine were surprised. Like it not everyday in this virtual reality u see a person who is more than happy to be there. (also i'm not really gonna add Kaufmo since their is little to no info bout him)

Okay now to the good stuff

So really your weren't stupid to not notice how Jax would occasionally "look ur way to see something else" nor to notice how differently he treated u compared to the others. Either he would go out of his way to be nice or mean to you.

You were chatting bout random nonsense with zooble when she said

"Hey Y/n do you see how much of a dumb### Jax's looks like just looking at you"Looking at you then at Jax then at you.

"no lemme check"You turned around to see jax looking away from you to above you? yea he was doing the "look ur way to see something else" crap again.

"ugh it starting to annoy me" Says Zooble wanting to stand up and start to beat the crap out of Jax but thankfully u stopped her then said

"hey its okay he may be weird and all but we got to be used to this anyway where stuck here"

"but he does like you Y/n we can all see it in his eyes" Says Ragatha entering the conversation

"yea ragatha is right how bout we make a plan to you know um- make him confess he like you" says zooble looking at you waiting for an answer.

Then u spoke up

"Sure i guess but knowing him he would never confess"

"Ugh lets head to my room to discuss the plan" says ragatha getting up

You three walk all he way to the room corridors and enter Ragatha's Room and discus how you would get Jax to confess his feelings to you.

"Okay so how should we do this" says Ragatha with some confusion in her face

"Well we know that Jax is a very Um- how should I say this es stupid and lets just say hes like a little puppy who follows you around" Says zooble before you with shook face say

"WAIT what is that supposed to mean I never see him trailing behind me"

"He does he always trails behind you buts ur either dumb or blind since u never see him literary behind u. ALL THE TIME" Says Zooble

"Well um- we should get started with the plan and stop taking bout how Jax is a little twerp" Says Ragatha with a bit of an annoyed face splatted in her face

"Okay okay well first of all since we know Jax is like a little dog with nothing else to do than follow Y/n we should..........."Says Zooble spilling out what the plan would be about.

Well basically the plan is make Jax follow u around Y/n complements Jax every time he does something for her even the smallest of things like letting u have the first of anything picking up flowers for u,him pranking u and much more.

Everything was going according to the plan Jax being Jax follows you around and sneaks up on you with a centepied (which ur scared of) and lands it right besides u trying to get a scared yelp from u but instead u just threw it away and said

"Jax u little bad bunny don't do that again" while pinching his cheek just slightly

"~wait you aren't mad?" Says Jax while becoming a blushing mess

"no of course not bunny boy come on lets go outside"

you two go outside and jax keeps trying to make your way there horrible by trying to trip ur feet over and over again but failing miserably.

Once you both are by the lake you start to look around and see Zooble and Ragatha watching impatiently.

"So what are we doing here again?" says Jax

"nothing much just .. Taking in some fresh air i guess"

"Y/n there is no fresh air here u know that right?" says Jax with a serious face

"Oh um i meant like ..... space apart of everyone"

"ok i guess then what should we do?" says Jax with a sly smile appearing in his face

"how about we go on the tea cups?"

"whatever you want toots" says Jax

Both spend 2 hours trying all the rides over and over, Jax never saying crap

As the day ends in the digital realm first comes the digital dinner the classic chicken and veggies.

After that, Caine suggested that you all play a quick game, and with no other option, everybody agrees.

HIDE & SEEK

"yay i guess" says zooble clearly annoyed they have to do this activity even tho it is fun she wants her alone

After the game which took around 30 min like damn these dudes have great hiding spots ,Caine gave everybody the green light to finally have there alone time/sleep

"UGH finally" Zooble before walking up to you

"Hey Y/n did Jax say anything to you?" Says Zooble quickly before she forgets about it

"No ... what should we do?"

"Hey idk bout you but i would of totally just make the first move at this point"Says Ragatha walking up to you both of you

"Well she has a point" "bout what?" "bout how you should def make the first move now since his dumb##s won't do S#it"

"okay I'll try but do i have to do it in front of u all or do i wait for everybody to leave?"

"Um okay new plan......." Says zooble making the new plan

Basically make gangle distract Jax long enough for everybody to leave to there rooms then gangle runs away, Then y/n will sneak up on Jax and spill the beans herself.

Everything went accordingly as planed gangle ran away just as she noticed everybody gone. Then Jax shrugs it of and slowly walks up to his room until...

"Hey Jax" "what do you want?" "not much just wanna talk to you...bout something"

"bout what dollfac-"

He says before being interrupted by a kiss

"does that answer ur question?"

"UM what was that?"... bb-but i guess it does"

"that's great! its official were dating"

"Wait WHAT!?" says Jax surprised as hell

"Goodnight Jax!" Says y/n as she gives one last kiss on his cheek

Hello finally finished hope u enjoyed.:]

@fuckyalllkl

[titleleaf]

Can you talk a bit about your introduction to the Hannibal Lecter tetralogy? Did you see any of the movies first or did you read the books and then watch the films? What drew you to the series initially?

Absolutely!

I was really really into Demme's Silence Of The Lambs as a preteen in the era where you could just turn on the TV and the same 20 movies would be playing on cable —it’s interesting to look back on those really naive viewings where I wasn’t really aware of the world enough to grasp the film’s themes around misogyny (or the turbo-problematic elements, never mind the literal edited-for-TV censorship) and also not really astute enough to grasp why Hannibal Lecter was supposed to be a frightening presence. Hopkins’ Hannibal is having so much fun in that movie and when you can’t really detect the layers of irony and cruelty at play it’s a really different film. (The big thing in hindsight that's strange is that I perceived the museum bug guys as much more threatening figures — and they certainly do represent an ambivalent part of Clarice’s experience moving through the world as a woman, including being flirted with when you're trying to investigate an active serial killer but Foster plays Clarice's responses to them very differently to me now. I also just took it as a given that Clarice and Ardelia were girlfriends, not in a “I ship it” way but where I didn’t understand how it would be intended otherwise. I do ship it now as an adult, ofc #clardeliahive.) Something about Hannibal's combination of prickly sparring and weird courtliness was a blast for me even at that young (and dumb) age. I watched the film Hannibal later, probably on one of the zillion illicit movie streaming sites that used to exist and only let you watch 45 minutes of video a day, pretty miffed at the actor change but enjoying the weird villain/heroine loyalty kink soooo much… cannot remember, for the life of me, when I picked up the film adaptation of Red Dragon but there's a nonzero chance it was because of a gifset of that stabbing scene back in, ugh, oh god, 2012? Still an absolutely delightful dynamic, ponytail and all. I'm meh on it as an adaptation of the novel RD now (the novel's grim ambivalent ending makes people so uncomfortable that it seems to be nerfed in every adaptation) but it really blew my little mind.

I was dubious of the NBC series when it was announced (as a big Clarice boi), then watched s1 and enjoyed it, then got as far in s2 as Beverly getting sliced up and bailed. I didn’t finish the series until some time last year, but I'm glad I came back when I did, having boned up on the books in the meantime. Some of my frustrations remain (short version, I do think the show’s writing has a sexism problem, and I'm never as enamored with Hannibal as the writing seems to be) but it’s still so compelling to me and it’s one of those things I can turn over and examine from a million angles. Also it is stacked with hotties from start to finish, and it introduced me to the finest wettest Will Graham. Brain chemistry-changing shit.

Books-wise, I think I read Hannibal Rising first, which is probably not the way people should engage with those books — I still think that book and its film adaptation have a lot of fun stuff going on with them, it’s just not necessarily… necessary. The rest of the books only came along for me after my most recent revival of interest in the NBC series. (Which… came about after I went completely off my shit about Primal Fear and joking with a buddy about Aaron Stampler's summer internship in Italy got me rewatching the 2002 Red Dragon film for the first time since college.) I think I was scared away by the way people talked about the book Hannibal, but it ended up being my second favorite of all four, it’s gonzo and turns up the Grand Guignol nastiness to 11 but it’s also terribly fun.

I was a latecomer to Manhunter also for similar reasons — people loved to call that movie cheesy or act like it was some strange early effort superceded by the obviously superior adaptation of a different book — but simply as cinema I think it’s the finest of all the film adaptations, and Demme's SOTL owes it a massive debt. Mann gives Dolarhyde a tragedy and a dignity that no adaptation is willing to give to Jame Gumb and I’m sore about that but also. Tom Noonan’s double-l Dollarhyde being the only blond Francis on film is so funny, and I love Will Graham's tiny purple shorts. I miss the things it cuts/changes, especially with the friction within Molly’s marriage and the location specificity of the book, but it also has such a wonderful encapsulation of what’s at the core of both Will and Clarice to me — you can’t save all of them, but you still have to try to save as many as you can. Brian Cox's Hannibal is his own beast, and really compelling.

The CBS Clarice procedural is such a fun idea but it gets so tangled up in rights issues and the CBS procedural-ness of it all that it really impedes things. Some of what it adds is brilliant imo (I love the character of Julia, a married trans lesbian in the 1990s corporate world who makes tough choices and brings a fun element of the novels’ boring RL forensics to the fore as well as exploring the in-universe consequences that Clarice's explosively well-televised confrontation with Gumb has for innocent people who have nothing else in common with a skin-stealing serial killer than being queer and societally despised) but other choices it makes are totally inexplicable. (Several questionable choices made wrt Catherine Martin, and also what the fuck are they doing with PAUL KRENDLER… it felt like a Mindhunter rehash, very much pejorative.) Other elements suffer from the absences dictated by the rights issues involved — not just no Hannibal Lecter but no Jack Crawford, no mention of Will Graham as the maimed and miserable failure-state for what Clarice is risking, no nothin'. I miss Jack! Also they just cannot commit to it being a full on 1990s period piece, which is a crying shame. If it were on another network, or made by a different team, it could have been really great, but it’s ultimately a frustrating watch for totally different reasons than NBC Hannibal is a frustrating watch.

I also listened to the musical parody of Silence Of The Lambs a lot in college and it's still major earworm material ten years later. I'm just trying to mind my own business and blammo, it's If I Could Smell Her Cunt on mental loop.

Books I Read In 2022 (and by read I mean actually liked)

Strobe Edge, Vol. 4 by Io Sakisaka

We can find the answer together. That's what being together means, right?

⭐⭐⭐⭐(4.5 STARS)

Oh WOW, I forgot how heavily this volume focused on SayurixDaiki! I genuinely adore their relationship and this was the first time they were given a chance to not only shine as a couple, but as individuals. I think their relationship is so underrated and re-reading the series has really made me see Daiki in a different light. I actually think I've only ever read this particular volume twice as opposed to some of the others that I have done multiple re-reads of, so this was kind of refreshing for me, weirdly enough. Daiki and Sayuri love each other so much and it's not the kind of high school romance that I would find myself rolling my eyes at because their relationship is one where they are open and willing to work through their issues with effective communication, which when compared to RenxMayuka is so bizarre because they're supposed to be this mature couple, but they don't how to communicate properly with one another. I also like how Daiki, who is so loud and goofy, was making the hard choices and trying to be practical whereas Sayuri, who is seen as the wisest and most sensible of them all, is all in and all she wants is to be with Daiki no matter what and wow, are SayurixDaiki my favourite couple? Damn, they just might be. (Shout out to Ninako for being the true MVP and quite literally knocking some sense into her dumb best-friend. I really wish we got more of Ninako and Daiki's friendship.) Also, I completely forgot this was the beginning of the Tsukasa/Manabu shenanigans, I love the little details that are so significant, and yet they're shown in this very 'blink and you'll miss it' sort of way. Manabu's heart is in the right place, but be a little patient and let Ren figure it out before you start plotting to get them together (I hate agreeing with Yū, but alas). Ninako and Ren are that couple that shares the exact same brain cell and you can't tell me otherwise. They're so in sync, like, Ninako's known Ren for a few months and she can tell something's wrong even if his friends can't. Also, Mayuka, sweetie, even DAIKI can see that Ren is probably one of the least mature people in this series, I don't care what the rest of you say.

(Can I just say that the pages of their "kiss" were absolutely gorgeous?! The hands? The leaves? The eyes??? Sheer perfection!)

Certain details that I wanted to point out...

I love how Ninako just lost it and straight-up demanded that Ren stay in bed. Him mentioning his shift was literally the angriest I've seen her!

These girls have no chill, Tsukasa did not hesitate to say that she would never be into Daiki and Sayuri took that personally. Ugh, just let us have an anime for more friendship scenes, that's all I want.

Wow, I'm old, I thought the scarf scene was in volume 5 or 6, my bad.

Kyo looking at their school work was so funny to me, like, same dude, SAME.

What are your thoughts on your housemates?

"Incompetent from top to bottom." Romeo scoffed, sharply crossing his legs. "Some of the general students have their wits about them, mostly after months of training, but they're amateurs and I can only trust them because I have no other choice--and most of them put their trust in me. The Boss's lot are an uncoordinated, violent mess. But they're still Sinostra students, so they're still my responsibility.

"Shinjo has potential, and I'll be training him as best as I can to make good on it since he'll likely be Captain next year. But he's a disobedient, disrespectful little upstart with neither manners nor social skills who'll be completely hopeless if he keeps obsessing over RAR in every aspect of life! It's good to be strict but if it isn't going to benefit you then it isn't going to generate profit! He's naive and sheltered, but at least he's book smart. . .if only he weren't going to class all the time it would be much easier to teach him things organically. But his morals and lawfulness are even more of the problem than our mutually busy schedules.

"And the Boss. . .ugh. I'm tired of that BTH. If he'd never injured that civilian we would have never been put on probation and I wouldn't be having quite so many problems with my own business. . .if he helped out around here or even just did what I told him without fucking everything up maybe this place would generate some decent profit. . .but he's an OGC who just wants to play around. It's a WOE to try and get his help at this point! He doesn't listen to me or to anyone, he doesn't care about anything but his own whims. He cares about gambling and eating anomalies, and if he's thinking it's rarely about anything else. Gambling, eating, sleeping. . .even if you consider when he could still go on missions, he leads a dull cycle of a life now."

He sounds bitter. And yet his voice sounds just as dull, as if tired. Or like he's grown accustomed to it as a fact of life by now.

". . .But he's still the Boss. And I don't want him as an underling. Not because he's a TGA like the rest of them, but because he's the Boss. It isn't about what the Academy's higherups decided or even the ownership of the Casino. I came here for him. As long as he's not being completely unreasonable or needlessly destructive then I. Want to do what I can for him. He has his ways of knowing things. He's a lazy POS full of excuses, he refuses to communicate with me or DHFJ, but he comes in clutch when he's really needed. Even though he's changed, he's still in there. He's different, but he's still himself. That's what matters to me. I guess."

As an OOC note, Ria isn't mentioned due to limited understanding of her character and their potential history. Of course, it's safe to assume he finds her difficult or intolerable, given he finds everyone difficult and intolerable.

". . .are you done being gross and sappy?"

"Haah. Just about."

"Well, Vagastrom's pretty much just a bunch of him-, her-, and them-bos and the Cap is king. There are a couple who stand out, especially some of the girls, but most of them are all just big dumb animals--all brawn and no brains. They're loud and obnoxious and full of bravado and before the end of the day this place fuckin' reeks sometimes from the sweat and the smell of machine oil does not cover it up. There are days I can't stand it here because of them, for real for real, like if you ever think I don't touch grass, trust me, even if I didn't wanna get out sometimes I would have to just so I could get away from them!

"Like I said, Cap's a huge himbo, but he's not all bad I guess. He's a moron with a stick up his ass and he doesn't show me the respect I deserve even though I do so much for him as vice cap, but he's quiet and not a bad-looking dude, y'know? Plus him being dumb and living under a rock makes him kinda fun and, I dunno, innocent almost? Like there're soooo many things I can show him online and he just doesn't get it and sometimes it's so funny? But for real? I kinda worry about the guy. He's way too dumb sometimes. But that's what I'm here for I guess~

"And Sho-chan~~~~~ is my slave❣️! He does whatever I say because that's what good partners do! But he's being really annoying and boring and stuck-up lately, with how he's spending all this time on his food truck and in The Pit with Cap lately. And getting all friendly with all these people like he doesn't regret coming here as much as I do. . .it's like he doesn't care about me anymore because he has new things to care about. . .💔 But he's always been like that! He gets interested in something or someone for a little bit, then he gets bored or finds something new to care about and drops everything and everyone else--but he always, always comes back to me, like he never does with anything else💘 So~ he can do what or whoever he wants, because he's addicted to me more than anything in the end~💕 I don't have to be jealous because I know he'll never get away from me and I'll always win anyway!

"Hmm the other ghouls. . .Maia's a cop and she doesn't matter because nobody likes cops. Dorothy's all jumpy and, I dunno, she's whatever because people were sooo mean to her back home. Raiden's always whining about something. And if you think I've got no tact you should spend 3 seconds around Rika. Maybe they'll make something of themselves someday. Who knows~"

Gah! I finished this hours ago but the stupid power went out! Anyway, this chapter is wonderfully dumb and I love it.

Psychoborrower in the Rhombus of Ruin

Chapter 2

“C’mon, kid! Is that the best you can do? Punch those dummies like you mean it!”

I thought requesting to do a one-on-one run through of Basic Braining would make it less stressful. It didn’t.

“Coach, I’m trying, but I’m just not strong enough.”

“That’s no way to talk, soldier! Something’s holding you back, dragging you down… That’s it!”

Coach pressed a button on a remote controller, and a song began to play through the nearby loudspeakers. It had a slow, funky beat to it. Not something you’d expect to hear on the battlefield. Then, the angelic vocals kicked in.

“I’m on my way, to gain my freedom. I won’t let you hold me down again.”

“Uh… Coach? What is this?”

“This is All Paul, Flint. They’re the voice of a generation! Nothing else motivates me the way their music does. Now, try again!”

I tried PSI-Punching the dummies again, and didn’t really feel a difference.

“No, not like that! You’ve gotta feel the music, Flint! Watch.”

Coach practically shoved me out of the way as he started punching the dummy on beat with the song, singing the chorus as he did it.

“Down, down, down. All you do is drag me down.”

Admittedly, it did look kind of fun.

I positioned myself at another dummy and punched on the beat. As I got more familiar with the song, I could feel the motivation to keep up with it. Each hit was more powerful than the last.

“That’s it, kid! Knew you had it in ya!”

After we finished training for the day, I asked Coach about the song. He told me it was off the band’s debut album, “Paul the Way”.

Naturally, when I learned that these absolute geniuses had more songs, I had to listen to all of them. From that day on, All Paul became a regular part of my psychic training.

…

The moment had finally arrived. All of my training was about to pay off. It’s hard to say I could’ve ever been fully prepared, but at least I didn’t have to face it alone. Coach was by my side, and there was absolutely nothing in this world that stood a chance against our combined power.

Nothing could drag us down.

“You won’t drag me down, down, down. I can’t take it anymore.”

Our musical debut was a major success. The energy was electric. The crowd went wild. I knew in my heart that All Paul themselves would be proud if they could see us.

Flint? Can you hear me?

Raz?

Good! I can’t get into Coach’s head, his defenses are on high alert.

Huh. That’s weird. Can I get back to you later? Kind of in the middle of something right now.

Flint, you have Psilirium poisoning! We’ve gotta stop this music!

Are you trying to… drag me down?

Ugh…

As the show continued, I could see stuff getting flung around left and right, and instruments randomly bursting into flames. I knew it was Raz, trying to sabotage the show. He was clearly jealous. I was psychic AND musically gifted, how could he not be?

In retaliation, Coach and I just sang louder.

“DOWN, DOWN, DOWN! ALL YOU DO IS DRAG ME DOWN!”

I had to stop myself from laughing at Raz’s pathetic attempts to wreck our show. Everything he did just looked like special effects that made the performance look cooler. Especially when he started PSI-Blasting.

“Haha! Thanks for the laser light show!”

The curtain behind us burned to ashes, and that was when I finally snapped out of it. The memories flooded back to me as I was faced with a horrific sight: the drowned skeletal remains of All Paul were behind the curtain. We were on their sunken cruise ship in the Rhombus of Ruin.

“All Paul is DEAD?!”

The glass separating us from the submerged part of the boat shattered, and water quickly began to fill the room. That was when Coach returned to his senses.

“Kid, look out!”

He scooped me up and ran for the nearest support beam, then climbed up to get away from the rising water. Though I couldn’t fully understand the curse-induced fear that Raz experienced towards water, I imagined this was pretty close.

“We’re gonna drown! And why didn’t you tell me All Paul was dead?!”

“I didn’t know how to tell you! I knew it would crush your spirit. But listen… their music will always live on. They’ll never truly be gone. And we can carry on with their legacy. They’d want it that way.”

Wiping away a tear, I nodded, newfound determination rising in my chest.

“You’re right. When we get out of here, let’s start an All Paul tribute band! And Raz, you can be in it!”

Uh… I’m good.

“Aw, come on! We need a third Paul!”

Maybe let’s focus on getting you guys out of here first?

Right. Imminent peril.

Turns out Coach can’t swim either. Luckily for us, Paul O.’s shimmering tail was still intact. Raz lifted it up so Coach could jump into it, allowing us to stay afloat in the water.

To my surprise, Sasha’s voice popped into my head.

Flint, are you alright?

“Yeah, I think so. What about you and the others?”

We’re all okay, darling. Raz freed all of us from our Psilirium poisoning. We’re still separated at the moment, but we’ve been able to stay in contact telepathically.

Now that everyone’s back to their senses, we can regroup and get me out of this dentist’s chair!

Coach paused, taking in that last bit of information, then let out a gasp.

“I know who’s behind this! Team, we need to get Razputin outta there, ASAP!”

As we swam past the mutant fish guards, the answer was obvious to me. Still, I was surprised he survived that fall.

“It’s Dr. Loboto, isn’t it?”

“Has to be. Can’t say I know of another evil dentist who’s skilled in creating mutant fish monsters. This has Cal written all over it.”

I could feel the fury as Lili’s voice echoed through my mind.

What does that creep want with my Dad?!

I’m not sure, but if we act quickly, we should be able to put a stop to it. Morry, you’re the closest to Razputin’s current location. Get there as fast as you can!

“On it, Nein!”

We swam at top speed, and we found ourselves underneath a hatch that led into the room where Raz was trapped. I knew it had to be the place. Even without opening the hatch, I could hear Dr. Loboto’s maniacal laughter.

We couldn’t risk going up there to free him, since we would definitely get caught. The next best thing was to supply Raz with the right tools to prevent his brain from being removed. Again.

Coach pulled out his psycho-portal. Just as he was about to hold it up through the opened hatch, I stopped him.

“Wait, let me go with him.”

“You sure, Flint?”

“Raz and I work together. Whatever he has to face in there, I do too.”

He nodded, a look of reluctance in his eyes. It was nice to see how far he’d come along in a short time. I had my old mentor back.

I took the portal, and he lifted me up so Raz could see me. Thankfully, Loboto had his back turned, so he didn’t notice me.

I could see the relief wash over Raz when he saw me, and he carefully brought me over to his shoulder with his TK. We exchanged a look, knowing exactly what we had to do next.

With all my strength, I threw the portal at Loboto, landing dead center on the back of his head. The gateway was open, and the unknown horrors within were waiting for us. But I wasn’t afraid. We were Psychonauts. We could handle anything.
