Doing one of these because I need encouragement because I’m starting to get discouraged about life
If this gets:
10 notes: I’ll drink more water
20 notes: I’ll fix my bed
50 notes: I’ll give away the schoolbooks I’ve had for two years that are just sitting in my closet (Done!)
100 notes: I’ll work harder to earn more money to replace my headphones (they’re like 4 yrs old) (HAHAAAAAAA DONE)
150 notes: I’ll tell my parents how exhausting it makes me to perform certain basic activities (FJCKING DONE)
200 notes: I’ll talk to my parents about their dismissive attitude of my mental and physical difficulties (DONEEEEEEEEE)
300 notes: I’ll talk to my parents about allowing me to cook for myself (if I cook I have to cook for the whole family which seriously discourages me from doing it and now I won’t cook unless forced to)
400 notes: I’ll talk to my mom about her barging into my room without knocking first or waiting for me to say it’s okay
500 notes: I’ll do a full clean of my room
600 notes: I’ll ask my parents if I can open commissions to make myself some more money 
700 notes: I’ll try to get a cashapp 
800 notes: I’ll try to fix my sleep schedule
Doubt this is gonna make it past 20 notes but I can hope

list of ships i think deserve officially licensed wine
yoohankim. i think they each have their own assigned wines that come bundled together a la the narumitsu wine but the important thing to me is that YJHwine is cooking wine. you can drink it if you want. but don't.
lawlight. i typed this one out and then immediately had the thought 'i dont know if there's death note wine or not i should check on that' and you know what fuck me they already made it. good job!
utenanthy. it's definitely not poison but... it's maybe... a little bit poison? haha. just kidding. unless. actually i googled this one and its real too there was an engraved glass sold with it. there was also an OOAK 20 yr old wine they sold for 200k yen. i wonder what sort of yuri powers you get if you drink that
ok not a ship but i think shauna yellowjackets should get her own licensed wine.
futakao. this feels self explanatory to anyone who knows things about revue starlight
end of post i guess

A/N ::: I don't know that I've ever written anything so quickly. I have a cavity from how gosh darn sweet this is.
C/W ::: Aged up Kirishima (20's dating 27 yr old, single mom, plus size reader), FLUFFYYYY, romantic, unprotected P->V (twice), lovey dovey schmuvvy. Sorry not sorry.
WC ::: Under 950
Tumblr media
Thinkin' about Kirishima in his early 20's, in college to become a child psychologist. He gets paired up with you, a 27 year old, cute and kinda chubby, single mom of one. You’re going for your PhD in addiction studies. You’re both in the same basic intro to psych, 3 times a week.
You've been working together on the project for a couple of weeks now and the sexual tension between you is so palpable you could strangle someone with the invisible string that spans the distance between your bodies.
You take your daughter to your mom's house and leave her there for the night. Kirishima is supposed to come over tonight, and you’re going to do the finishing touches on editing the paper and putting the report together.
You cook up something that he mentioned in passing that he loved eating and casually set the coffee table. Nothing fancy, a votive candle that smells like vanilla and some thrift store placemats. When it gets closer to the time he’s supposed to be there, you turn on the fireplace channel on YouTube and put on some music that you know he likes. One day, he dropped his earbuds, and you picked it up to see what he was listening to before returning it to him. He thought it was so cute how your face lit up when you recognized the song (The Beach, The Neighbourhood).
He comes over about 5 minutes to 5 with a small bouquet of mixed wildflowers in a pink crystal vase (he thinks - it's really just cheap glass. But you love it because it's just so damn cute how he thinks it's crystal).
Dinner is full of emphatic conversations about your childhoods. About your best friends. Your bad decisions. Your best decisions. How can you not have good conversation with Kirishima around. C'mon.
He helps you clear the table of the few dishes you used. Offering to help you wash and dry them, but you tell him just to sit them in the sink, you'll get to them tomorrow.
You both stand at the front door, averting your gaze from one another because the night is obviously coming to a close. And neither of you know how to say that you aren't ready to do the old 'See you in class Monday'. You both wanted to sit on the couch for hours just learning everything you can about the other. No matter if it took all night or not.
That awkward moment when you both start to say something at the same time happens. Neither of you know what the other said, neither of you are terribly interested in hearing it repeated.
"Well," he rubs his forearm with his gigantic hand, squeezing it a couple of times, like he was trying to ground himself. "I had a lo- hmph!!!"
You pull him down for a kiss because standing there, listening to his sweet, happy voice and watching him move his mouth - you absolutely cannot stand another second of not pressing yours against it.
"M-me too. Thank you for the flowers, Kirishima. They're beau- mmm!!!"
Tumblr media
This time, he pulls you into him and kisses you back with such force and passion that you feel your lungs empty and your legs go weak. He lifts you up and carries you over to the couch, gently perching you on his massive lap. He brushes the loose strands of hair from your neck and starts kissing you so deeply and slowly that you're sure you're going to die before the sun comes up.
"Kuh-eer-ee", you force what little oxygen is left in your body out to say those 3 syllables. You settle yourself over him, knees bent, sitting on your legs. You know they’re going to go numb if you keep sitting like this. But it’s just not as important as being in his arms.
Tangling your hands in his hair, you pull it loose from the bun it's in tonight. His hands explore your body, starting at your love handles. He's squeezing and pushing your hips around, caressing your sides and running his nails up and down your back.
The two of you make love on the couch, and then again in the bedroom. You both fall asleep in each other's arms, too exhausted to even move.
In the morning, Kirishima makes breakfast and does ALL of the dishes. He asks you questions about your daughter (what's she like, what's her favorite toy/color/animal/flower/ice cream/band/Disney character/Disney princess/has she been to Disneyland?/favorite kind of pizza/favorite & least favorite vegetable and fruit/does she like to drink water/all the right questions). You both get dressed, and you fix your hair for the day. He tells you to keep his t-shirt because it looks better on you right now than it ever did on him. Eventually, you said goodbye to each other. 
He leaves you with a long kiss on the cheek and a promise to meet you at the library - or your place?? - later that afternoon to work on the project (because oops, nothing got done last night. Maybe the library is best?).
You look out the window as he tosses his backpack over his beautiful, hoodie-clad, broad ass shoulder, and blows a kiss to you with one hand and waves with the other. You can't help but smile because you know that stuff like that takes coordination and you've seen him trip around campus a lot.
You're absolutely sure that you're going to fall in love with him, if you haven't already.

i feel like a parrot just reiterating the amount of times ive had to tell people im fucking unwell and the fact my manic episodes are as volatile as an ipad kid getting their ipad taken off
yh ya girl tried to kill herself but instead did the next best thing and put some cuts in her arm, i cba being all soft im being cut throat w yall rn, ya dont like it then fuck off my page LOLL
anyway yeah, edgy scary painting because im mentally ill and im bipolar and im kanye west wowww omg😡😡😱😱
im js gonna vent yall dont gotta read shit im js tryina air ts out LOLL
so like im really fucking tired of people expecting me to do shit the way they wanna, like i deadass open up ab my vulnerable NPD to someone, and they then have the gall to say that theyre scared of me LOL and then theyll compare me to their ex or sm shit??? like sorry why?? i could go into it but id be sat here til 2am. secondly, this same retard has the cheek to tell me because i was manic, i was basically acting as an edgy 13 yr old when it came to me cutting myself, because believe it or not, i found it amusing, not in the sense im some corny tiktok cosplayer tryina be tough, but in the sense that im fucking cooked in the psyche. i think the added flavours of my trillion other disorders make my bipolar 8x worse because when im manic everything fluctuates, impulsivity, especially when my bpd comes into play, my mood switches rapidly, i have outbursts, im a reckless person i seek attention and gratitude off others, its a whole fuckin thing
yh, anyway, and what really pmo is that when im fuckin venting to someone they then have the gall, the hutzpah to be talking ab their own shit like sorry idgaf?? did i fuckin ask bro LOL like this is about me why are we skewing the conversation to you, if i wanted to talk about you then i would've mentioned you (which is highly unlikely) and the fact that theres people that love to fucking question my choices and act like im under the influence of drugs or pure stupidity, they can go fuck themselves icl bc yall js pmo.. ive been practically screaming at my doctor begging for a bipolar assessment because god forbid england ever gives 2 shits ab people with bipolar disorder. like how fucking hard is it to be medicated for bipolar??? and what pissed me off even more is that i was refused a psychosis diagnosis because my symptoms werent and i quote "psychotic enough" so youre telling me i still have prevailing psychotic symptoms but because theyre not fucking extreme i cant? i mean fine, but jesus christ its the constant back and fourth, and what im basically getting at is that im basically bipolar with psychotic symptoms.
and the fact im still fucking raw dogging life says enough. yeah ong icl idk if im gonna be living til 20 or sm shi, and i cba wassing any further ab it LMFAO

I feel like I'm the only person interested in the idea of how it would have looked long term if Margaery had been able to keep playing Joffrey via his sadistic murder fetish. Like how would she have used that to control him and how would it have changed her, too? How would it have affected the way he ruled to have a supportive partner who he perceived liked (maybe even loved) him for the most twisted part of himself and helped him use that as an outlet for his sadism? Why are there no fanfics about this??? Why do I have to write one myself eventually?? I don't think I could do it justice but it's fucking fascinating and I can't stop thinking about it.
I have a few thoughts about margaery lemme get my notes and just ramble them off. My autism is really vibrating with this one.
Why is mace Tyrell so obsessed with getting marg on the throne? I mean there’s a complicated history there with mace Tyrell and Robert Baratheon. I’m also a little confused about how renly fits into this as well? The plan is giving Anastasia (1997)
Renly: *is a twink* oh no Mace how are we going to yeet my brother off the throne after he already yeeted that other guy for the throne?
Mace: man I got this hot daughter maybe we can distract Robert with my hot, hot, so fucking hot daughter and when he’s not looking we can take his chair out from under him.
Renly: *still a twink* yeah totally I mean Robert do be getting distracted by insanely hot, hot, hot women like all the time
Mace: bro tell me my incredibly sexy hot daughter looks just like ur brother’s dead gf that he has been unhealthily idolizing for the last 14 years
Renly: sure maybe idk I like cock but I’ll ask a guy who would know
Later
Renly: hey does my hot cockless (I checked) hot hot female sexy hot babe of a teenage wife look like ur dead sister or what
Ned:
Renly:
Ned: i remember when u used to wet the bed
Renly: so is that a no….?/
So like when robert dies, why does she stay saddled up to renly? Like is that the honest to god best political decision to be making? Renly is spindly and has not-zero pull in this pissing contest of a war, but not much more than that. So ?////??/? Was the plan to bide her time? And if so, why in the show was she so desperate to be the vessel for twinkboy’s heir? What was the move there? Was she proud of that one?
Yeah so when renly dies, send Littlefinger the Jeffrey Epstein of Westeros to claim the twink’s 14 yr old bride. That sounds like a great idea. But I digress.
Who approved the decision for this 14 year old girl to marry Actual Evil Villain Joffrey? Because *not on the phone w the fbi* I just wanna talk.
But like also? Maybe she can match his freak a lil. I mean in the show I couldn’t tell if she was like. Subtly encouraging joffrey’s fuck ass weird serial killer shit or if she was actually using her wits n tits to manipulate him into not being such a loser fucking demented freak? but I mean like either way babey werk queen house burn the boots down slayyy cunty arm chair yassssss 💅 mamaaaa
WHAT IS HER GAME?
What is the end goal here? So let’s look at both sides leading up to joffrey’s death. Maybe she’s just neutral good? The Tyrells are so sweet. Generally mild mannered, and in court no one truly has much negative to say about them. Willas is a sweetie, Olenna is doted upon, Loras is a hoot n a half, marg is a super hot 14 year old, and also Mace is there. And like the vibes aren’t totally cooked in king’s landing for mace either even tho he put his entire cock inside robert’s 20 yer old bussy at the battle of ashford during the rebellion bc when robert usurped the king mace was still like “bro sure u can borrow 20$ and never pay me back it’s cool bro.”
Maybe marg is here to genuinely keep a lid on the boiling pot which is kings landing under joffrey (Cersei’s) rule. Maybe marg genuinely uses joffrey’s violence, abhorrent personality and his weak fucking will,, to be the true ruler of the realm? The woman behind the man, the hand within the puppet, if you will.
What could she accomplish with that?
She could free Sansa, assist with safe passage to the north, and save the territory of the North by giving House Stark the right to their rein. If marg plays her cards right, and if she truly wanted to go this route, she could possibly end the entirety of the war simply by appeasing Robb King in the North. But that’s so insanely unlikely Robb wouldn’t easily be persuaded by marg in any capacity, even pre-jeyne westerling, because the only thing that could possibly be wielded against Robb in an honest to god strategic move would be her sense of honor and duty—and Robb would have a legitimate leg to stand on considering what sort of honor and duty might be held at high regard for a woman so willing to look past joffrey’s affronts to mankind simply to oversee his rule.
She wouldn’t cure king’s landing of its sycophant infestation, but I would like to think she could quell the treachery for some periods of time. Like I wonder if with joffrey’s urges controlled by marg exactly how much would this fuckin reign accomplish? What could joffrey do differently, or positively for his kingdom? His wife tells him she wants to feed the orphans. He goes “yeah sure whatever” and then what happens? She feeds the orphans? Or will Cersei use her magic decent-human-detecting pussy to some insane fucking convoluted manipulation to not let marg throw apples at children w dead parents? Either way wtf this can go on for as long as any of them live. It’s a real Waterboy type dynamic and marg is Fairuza Balk.
But what if this bitch was actually Ramsay Bolton evil? (Personal fave) what if she can really match joffrey’s freak? What if she likes carving up pregnant cats, too? What if marg got that dog in her (Targaryen blood. Bc she do. She got that Hightower shit from her mom’s side) and she’s as batshit as they come? What if she likes watching joffrey brutalize baelish’s girls? 👀 (heyyyy fic writers that one’s for free. hmu, u got my number. what’s good bb)
What can she do with this?
Kill Cersei. Eat her. Ya gotta get slutty Mrs. Voorhees out of the equation.
Fmk, five kings version quick don’t think about it just say it out loud girl. just fuck n kill them all? Oh word good luck w stannis he hates pussy and he’s bald.
Have joffrey’s cat-carving children, begin the next line of targaryens bc there’s gonna be some whack dynamic where the kids’ punnet squares will be labeled “Evil,” “stupid,” “intelligent,” and “kind-hearted.” Also a lot of weird incest and sister-fucking. And twins. Twins EVERYWHERE. Imagine that fuckin bleak period of Westerosi reigning power histories. What would the Lannister version of Fire & blood read like? Fucking clown shoes is what that would look like.
Aye any of you fic writers got some political science degrees? I have some questions.

Guys Peep This
ok so theres this high school au that me and a friend are cooking...
Almost all the characters are either faculty or students. Like Envy is a student right because then we can have them fight Ed crazy style in the middle of the cafeteria, but Wrath is the dean so we can say "mr the furious" are you seeing the vision?
Mustang is the academic decathlon proctor and also the AP chemisty and trig teacher. Hawkeye is the AP english teacher that everyone is afraid of. Havoc is the french teacher (but his ass is NOT teaching!! he just plays the french dub of shrek in class). Fuery is the new 20 yr old English 1 teacher who cant get thru a single class session without going to the bathroom and crying because his 14 yr old students keep bullying him. Olivier Armstrong is the PE teacher and she runs that shit like the fucking Navy. Their shitass poorly funded high school is in the top percentile of the presidential fitness exam because of her (at least one anemic child has died).
Ed gets blackmailed by Mustang into joining academic decathlon (he used his sadass dead mom backstory ONCE to get out of a test just to see if he could and Mustang has not let that go since he realized). Al is on the team because he likes it :)
Selim Bradley is a normal child here but hes like one of those insufferable gifted children that move up to high school way too fast. Hes on Eds team (debate champ) but Ed has insane beef with him because "there can only be one child prodigy" but Ed is. Not One. He is 15 and a sophomore, he is a normal age. I mean hes like taking too many AP courses but that doesnt make him special??? Attention seeking whoer
Ling and Lan fan are students from the prep school down the street that Ed's school has ancient beef with. Ling also has a guy in hisn head btw ("he's not crazy or anything he just has a guy that sometimes takes over his body and takes him on crazy benders" - how he describes his real medical disorder).
Ling is also the prep schools acadeca team's math guy (directly competing with Edward who is his team's math guy) and he thinks this just gives them more of a reason to be friends. He's obsessed with Ed the way that a child is obsessed with a wild animal. Sometimes Ling invites him to go dumpster diving and Ed has to watch in horror as he jumps fully into a dumpster and comes out with a half-eaten comically large turkey leg and devours it right in front of him. At one point Ed wakes up at 3AM to a text that just says "I want you." Ling tells him point blank that it wasn't him; Ed thinks he's just some kinda fruit in denial. (Greed sent it in an attempt to get Ed to stop hanging out with Ling because he thinks Ed is lame as shit).
is this anything

When i asked abt the tactical gear and u said finney hated it and donna had to force it on him i just picture like 10 fully grown burly men holding 20 yr old 5'7 finney down while hes kicking screaming and biting and donna just holding military style gear and grinning menacingly
I dont blame finney tbh that shit looks like it would cook me alive🙏🏻😪
Does donna have a like symbol for when shes hacking? Like la brava or jinx's monkey symbol?

is there anything ur beloved mutuals can do to help u with ur shitty living situation?
uuuhhhh nothing realistic honestly. my mom basically has it so she is my only source of transportation and i’ve got no other family to reach out to. NOT trying to sound defeatist my mom just has had me in a weird neglect loop my entire life and i never learned how to do anything except take care of myself while home alone (cooking laundry petcare etc etc)
she isn’t even mean about the neglect she’ll just promise to do things and then procrastinate (for example tried to join many extracurriculars as a kid that my mom just never bothered to sign me up for) wish it was easier to explain the specific situation i’m stuck but it’s basically
disabled + cannot work + cannot drive + no transportation + severe agoraphobia that my mom regularly enables + no irl friends or family to reach out to + very unwalkable town = well fuck
idk i still haven’t slept and the shit going on w my grandpa and money has me physically and emotionally comatose.
but tldr: i’d need to be completely dependent on another person and there is no one in my life who would be willing + able to support a disabled 20 yr old they probably barely know

"The best revenge..."
...is living and eating WELL while (and in spite of) living in poverty.
I actually had the gumption to try and have a cafe 30 or so years ago, and I live with a guy who had his own bakery: a Danish-trained Chef currently working as a Sous Chef at a big hotel in The City, and his 21 yr old son (who has literally been an assistant sous chef to his dad his whole life).
We're all barely afloat, his son is looking for his first real job-job "out there", and getting discouraged. Y'all hear regularly about my poverty status, and my roomie chef is doin' as much as he can, and we're all three freakin' broke.
Fuck it. We may be broke, but we are are gonna Eat as best we can with what we got. So to the current example.
Yes, I know how to cook Mexican Food like any native ex-south-texan worth his salt and lime. Yes I learned how mama/grandma did it, either mine or someone else's.
Roomie and I are carnivores, son is veg. We all agree that Mexican Food is good, so I'm always looking for how to spend my "old-fuck-on-food-stamps EBT the best way.
Behold, Example 1: 20 lb. bag of dried pinto beans.
Tumblr media
20 lbs for $17. And lookee there: it's Fiesta, no stranger to this former Austinite. And anyone who knows knows that this boy knows how to make a pot o'pintos, with/without carnivorousness. Keep 'em on the stove long enough you got Refrieds.
Somebody at Groce-Out is from Texas, gotta be: They have Velveeta and Rotel (for QUESO!) at near-normal prices! I laughed today. Velveeta was 6.99 at Groce-Out, and I shit you not, $14.95 at Lucky.
Got that along with a couple 2-lb bags of their "Hollis Street" whole bean French Roast (Dark) for $11.95 ea. This is surprisingly good coffee beanage, freshly roasted right up the road in Emeryville, evidently. So good coffee for cheap. A similar brand at the 'non discount' grocery store I go to is $21 for a 2lb bag.
While they aren't the winner in the coffee bean competition, Lucky (the non-discount store) is great for meat, especially mid-week, when they have lots of specials. Their "megapaks" of chicken thighs (10/pkg) were buy one get one free. So for ten bucks, I got 20 thighs (over 7lbs), which, when roasted with lots of salt and pepper, and cooled and shredded and deboned become something like 4 pounds of Chicken Enchilada Meat. For ten bucks.
Tomorrow I go to another discount store closeby roomie told me about that has the best commercial Hatch Chile in a jar I have ever found. Tastes like mine, when we would get a case at a time at Central Market, get 'em roasted in the parking lot, and take 'em home and shuck most of the the skins/seeds, and saute onion and garlic and add. In. A. Fucking. Jar.
So you see where this is heading.
We will be having a TexMex Enchilada/taco Feast that can be repeated at will until we've eaten/given enough away. Freezer. Vacuum sealer. Oooooooom.
And yeah, we got the dessert thing covered. I buy flour, the three sugars, butter, real cream, good organic milk, good brown eggs. I bake everything from fucking scratch. I buy berries and grapes as my main fruit. I don't buy a lot of processed ANYTHING. I buy ingredients. And bread/tortillas, obvs. And I'm happy I have the "card" that gives me my eeked-out apportionment of "food funds".
So that old adage of "The Best Revenge" being "living well" means we may be fucking poor, but goddammit, we are gonna Eat, with a capital E if I have anything to say about it.
All three of us are pretty much clinging to the same leaky life-raft, this accursed but oh-so-necessary apartment, not much overlap in our lives/diets/schedules, but every once in awhile I get to go back into "restaurant mode" and do up a Massive Feed. Share with the neighbors and stock the freezer.
And a pot of beans on the stove in perpetuity.

just crying silently while holding a finally-sleeping baby (20 lbs and 2.5 feet tall baby) who refused to nap longer than 30 mins today and has emotional tantrums like a 2 yr old, complete with throwing their bodies backwards and biting lolol this poor kiddo just wants to be a big people
I think I'm just crying bc I'm so tired and feeling a lot of conflicting emotions about literally everything in life. like why does the world continue to spiral out in flames and I feel like I'm in survival mode when all I've wanted to do for 4 years is actually LIVE and THRIVE and, now, raise my child to be a good human but everything is isolating and a fucking battle to get done and I feel lonely and I can't even spend time with my partner or focus on myself I feel like time is constantly running out, money is running out, kindness is running out, and my brain cells can't even function anymore.
like. being a mom and being ill is really fucking hard. as if that's a surprise, but I'm so overwhelmed anticipating the next 3 months bc I've got 10 more appointments this month alone, plus an endoscopy and my pre-op is in MAY and I'm gonna have fucking hip surgery while I have a 1 year old who will probably definitely be walking lmao
also the world is on fire, did I say that? myles hours got cut at ups bc they're greedy fucks and we simultaneously lost our food stamps bc he made too much money during holiday season and I've been waiting over a month for my new application to get filed and I'm basically living on coffee smoothies electrolytes and whatever his mom cooks for dinner. at least I can kind of feed my kid tho even tho he wants solid food already bc on the inside he's a 30 yr old and WIC only pays for formula + purees.
day by day. hour by hour. it's all I can do. I'm so. fuvking. sick of burning out 2 days after I finally recover. I have so much more to say but no energy to form words anymore.
parenting is so fucking triggering it's wild. today wasn't even all that bad, either, but everything reminds me of my past right now. and I continue having to mask and play nice with a literal energy vampire that we live with sooooo
editing to add that I am still extremely obsessed with my son , he's beautiful and his laughter is like a drug I've never experienced and he looks like a literal cherub when he sleeps but holy shit let's start being honest about parenting too. this world doesn't make ANYTHING easy for most people...

i’m sorry if this makes no sense at all i just must get this off my chest - feel free to ignore ❤️
i’ve never wanted to be linecook reader so bad.
20 yr old country club waitress here! in love with 33 year old linecook😁😁 god help me
preface: idk him super well just very hot and hot personality (also tattoos, big beefy arms LOL, mildly cunty but kinda shy at first yktv!) but he has asked me to smoke a couple times just the kitchen usually gets to head out before front of the house does so i never did (im also grossly self conscious Haha).
okay! so a group of us were drinking after working a wedding (still on the clock oops) and one of the guys my age was talking about girl problems and Mr Love of my Life is giving him weird pointers and they’re talking about sex and being graphic idk i was Not sober but i know i looked like a tomato listening to them. boy my age says his type is “big booty latinas” ok thank u true. but sir we didn’t ask❤️ and then my man (😁) is like “nah nah i like [insert my weight/body type, eye color, hair color]” also - i am Not skinny (i gained a lot of weight the past two years after having an ED in high school blah blah blah as well as the fact that every girl i work with is skinny, like flat stomach skinny and i’m not being dramatic) so him describing me quite literally made me giddy which is so stupid, to be shocked that a hot man (that every girl thinks is hot) would find a chubby girl attractive but here i am. i could say so much more but this is embarrassingly long!
i’m delulu right ? or does he want me LOL
thanks for listening bestie love u!
ohhh this is so exciting for you Yay!!! i mean you are at the very least clearly his type. i think it would be very easy for you to get with him considering Men and considering Linecooks especially, you’d probably only have to Offer lol. now it might be just sex and nothing more serious and it might break your heart so You Know i must legally reiterate the title of my fic; don’t fuck the line cooks. that being said i would go for it🤭🤭 get good sex!!

okay uhhh 1 3 8 10 14 15 19 !!!
1 - comfort character
hmmmm i think i have a lot! off the top of my head obviously the main one is miku, then we have hoihoi-san, fleki from dunmeshi, oikawa from hq, kawajiri, kasukabe and haru from drhdr, sunako from ynsh, and lots more. oh also do vtubers count? technically they’re playing a character, right? if they do then we have mysta rias (rip), millie parfait, gavis bettel, porcelainmaid and as of this morning, basilwoof.
3 - dream haircut/color
iiii really wanna grow my hair out enough for a long layered wolfcut type thing with a bleached underlayer (which i already have. now i just need to wait) also a deathhawk sounds very appealing to me but i dont think i have the patience for that.
8 - any fandom/niche/hyperfixation topics you can rant about for hours?
hmmmm i’m not as deep as i used to be into the doll fandom but i think i can talk about them for a long time to someone completely new to the topic, also we have evolutionary biology (with prep time), experimental archaeology, fashion and fashion history, cooking and food, my music preferences, and art of course. keep in mind many of these i’m passionate about but not very knowledgeable on.
10 - favorite aesthetics??
ooh i have many.
- solarpunk/industrial/futuristic decay type things
- cozy cottagecore/taverncore/lived-in and overgrown spaces (also including low fantasy and modern fantasy type things in here)
- colorful maximalist type things
- frilly, cute aesthetics and fashion subcultures
- dark, heavyhanded, busy gothic things
- fruity and colorful visuals reminiscent of old anime figures and digital art from 20-30 yrs ago
in general i like visually heavy but cohesive aesthetics.
14 - favorite art medium?
i’m gonna have to say digital for its versatility, oil and charcoal come in close second.
15 - current earworm song?
total eclipse of the heart
19 - any pet peeves?
loud and sudden sounds and smells i can’t control, people who startle me on purpose to get a reaction, having to hurry somewhere, being in cars, the feeling of certain synthetic fibers on me and bodycon clothes in general. also physically feeling my hands being dirty irks me so so bad. now that i think about it that’s kind of a lot oh well shrug

Elias’ bosses are so racist to the main cook at his job that she hasn’t been in in a week and they told him he needs to start doing her job in addition to his job and he said Well I need u to pay me accordingly and they like started crying and said “why do you view this as so transactional? You only ask for raises because you’re a man” LMAOOOO the only reason he’s the only person asking for raises is because he has ME in his corner telling him he needs to ask for raises and yes because he’s a man and isn’t scared shitless like all of his coworkers who are 20 yr old girls too scared to push back when they’re getting screwed!!!!!

Sometimes I wish I could tell 16 yr old me that it does get better. Because they were so sure they wouldn’t make it to 18, they could barely through a week of school and they dropped out of A levels with grades D, U and U.
But I’m 19 now, I’m going to be 20 in a few months and I’m sitting in my own room about to cook dinner for myself after a day of singing and dancing because I got into drama school! I now have the privilege of hope behind the bad days and people who have my back and who will support me without me having to ask.
Life gets better. Oh my gods it gets so much better!!
