19 October 2023: In Gaza, we have grown accustomed to war
Horrific experiences of death and destruction have permanently impacted Palestiniansâ culture, language and collective memory. âIs it war again?â asks my little Amal, 7, memories of the previous Israeli assaults still fresh in her mind.
The wording of the question shows the maturity she has been forced to develop. Last year, Amal asked her mum if it was âanother war.â
Yes, it is war again in Gaza! In Gaza, we have grown accustomed to war. War has become a recurrent reality, a nightmare that wonât go away. A brutal normality. War has become like a grumpy old relative, one that we canât stand but canât rid ourselves of either.
The children pay the heaviest price. A price of fear and nonstop trauma that is reflected in their behaviors and their reactions. Itâs estimated that over 90 percent of Palestinian children in Gaza show signs of trauma. But also, specialists claim there is no post-war trauma in Gaza as the war is still ongoing.
My grandmother would tell me to put on a heavy sweater because it would rain. And it would rain! She, like all Palestinian elders, had a unique sense, an understanding of the earth, wind, trees and rain. The elders knew when to pick olives for pickling or for oil. I was always envious of that.
Sorry, Grandma. We have instead become attuned to the vagaries of war. This heavy guest visits us uninvited, unwelcomed and undesired, perches on our chests and breaths, and then claims the lives of many, in the hundreds and thousands.
A Palestinian in Gaza born in 2008 has witnessed seven wars: 2008â2009, 2012, 2014, 2021, 2022, 2023A and 2023B. And as the habit goes in Gaza, people can be seven wars old, or four wars old. My little Amal, born in 2016, now holds a BA in wars, having lived through four destructive campaigns. In Gaza, we often speak about wars in terms of academic degrees: a BA in wars, an MA in wars, and some might humorously refer to themselves as PhD candidates in wars.
Our discourse has significantly changed and shifted. At night, when Israel particularly intensifies the bombardment, itâs a âpartyâ: âThe party has begun.â âIt will be a horrific party tonight.â And then there is âThe Bag,â capital T and capital B. This is a bag that is hurriedly prepared to contain the cash, the IDs, the birth certificates and college diplomas. The aim is to grab the kids and one item when there is a threat of evacuation.
The collective memories and culture of Palestinians in Gaza have been substantially impacted by these horrific experiences of war and death. Most Gazans have lost family members, relatives, or loved ones or have had their homes damaged or destroyed. Itâs estimated that these wars and the escalations between them have claimed the lives of over 9,000 (it was 7,500 when I started drafting this last week!) Palestinians and destroyed over 60,000 housing units.
Death and war. War and Death. These two are persona non grata, yet we canât force them to leave. To let us be.
Palestinian poet Tamim Al-Barghouti summarizes the relationship between death and the Palestinians that war brings (my translation):
It was not wise of you, Death, to draw near.
It was not wise to besiege us all these years.
It was not wise to dwell this close,
So close weâve memorized your visage
Your eating habits
Your time of rest
Your mood swings
Your heartâs desires
Even your frailties.
O, Death, beware!
Donât rest that you tallied us.
We are many.
And we are still here
[Seventy] years after the invasion
Our torches are still alight
Two centuries
After Jesus went to his third grade in our land
We have known you, Death, too well.
O, Death, our intent is clear:
We will beat you,
Even if they slay us, one and all.
Death, fear us,
For here we are, unafraid.
23 October 2023: Five stages of coping with war in Gaza
Our familiarity with war in Gaza has led us to develop a unique perspective and unique coping mechanisms.
We can identify five major emotional stages that Gazans go through during these grim conflicts. The stages are denial, fear, silence, numbness, hope, despair and submission.
This is day 16 and Israel has killed more than 5,000 Palestinians (many are still unaccounted for under the rubble), including over 2,000 Palestinian children, Gaza authorities tell us. More than 15,000 were injured and over 25,000 Palestinian homes were destroyed. And Israel says it is ready for ground invasion.
Stage one: Denial
In the early stages of a crisis, there is often a sense of denial. We convince ourselves that this time wonât lead to war. People are tired of the recurring conflicts, and both sides may appear too preoccupied to engage in warfare. As missiles fall and soar, we maintain a form of partial denial, hoping that this time will not be as lengthy or devastating as past wars.
No, this time itâs not going to be war. Everyone is tired of wars. Israel is too busy to go to war.
Palestinians are too exhausted and too battered to engage in a war. It could just last five days, give or take, we hope.
Stage two: Fear
Soon, denial turns to fear as the reality of another war sets in. Gaza is paralyzed as civilians, including children, are attacked by Israeli bombs. The pictures and videos of massacres, of homes obliterated with the families inside, of high rise buildings toppled like dominoes turn the denial into utter terror.
Every strike, especially at night, means all the children wake up crying and weep. As parents, we fear for our kids and we fear we canât protect our loved ones.
Stage three: Silence and numbness
This is when Israel particularly intensifies the bombing of civilian homes. Stories are interrupted. Prayers are cut short. Meals are left uneaten. Showers are abandoned.
Therefore, amid the chaos and danger Israel brings, many in Gaza, especially children, withdraw into silence. They find solace in solitude as means of coping with the overwhelming emotion and uncertainty that surrounds them. Silence prevails.
Then numbness follows. As people attempt to protect themselves from the constant onslaught of distressing news, they grow indifferent. Because we could die anyway, no matter where we go. Emotional numbness sets in, as individuals attempt to detach from their emotions to survive.
Stage four: Hope
In the midst of despair, glimmers of hope may emerge. Even in the darkest moments, Gazans may hold onto the belief Israel might at least kill fewer people, bomb fewer places, and damage less. The most hopeful of us wish for a lasting ceasefire or an end to the siege or even the occupation. But this is merely hope. And hope is dangerous.
We hope that politicians will man up. We hitch our hope to the masses taking to the streets to reassure their politicians and warn they will be punished in future elections if they support Israeli aggression against Palestinians in Gaza.
Stage five: Despair and submission
Unfortunately, hope can often be fleeting, and many Gazans have experienced recurring cycles of despair. The repeated loss of life, homes and security lead to deep feelings of helplessness.
In the final stage, there is a sense of submission as Gazans accept the reality that they are unable to change the situation. That they are left alone. That the world has abandoned us. That Israel can kill and destroy at large with impunity. This is a stage marked by endurance, as Palestinians strive to adapt and persevere in the face of ongoing challenges.
These stages of war have become an unfortunate part of life in Gaza, shaping the resilience and perseverance of the Palestinian people in the face of unimaginable hardships imposed by the Israeli occupation.
27 October 2023: What itâs like when Israel bombs your building
I have six children. And so far we have survived seven major Israeli escalations, unscathed. We are an average family. My wife, Nusayba, is a housewife, I have two children in college and my youngest child, Amal, is 7. In Gaza, Amal is already four wars old.
We are an average family in Gaza, but we have had our fair share of Israeli death and destruction.
So far, since the early 1970s, I have lost 20 (and 15 last week) members of my extended family due to Israeli aggression.
In 2014, Israel destroyed our family home of seven flats, killing my brother Mohammed.
In 2014, Israel killed about 20 of my wifeâs family including her brother, her sister, three of her sisterâs kids, her grandfather and her cousin. And destroyed several of my in-lawsâ homes.
Combined, my wife and I have lost over fifty 50 members to Israeli war and terror.
2023 war on Gaza
As the bombs fall and Israel targets sleeping families in their homes, parents are torn between several issues.
Should we leave? But go where, when Israel targets evacuees on their way and targets the areas they evacuate to?
Should we stay with relatives? Or should our relatives stay with us, whose home is relatively âsafe?â We can never be sure. Itâs been more than 75 years of brutal occupation â and over six major Israeli military onslaughts in the past 15 years â and we have so far failed to understand Israelâs brutality and mentality of death and destruction.
And then there is the fear of what to do if â when â we are bombed. We try to evade them. But how can you evade the bombs when Israel throws three or four or five consecutive bombs at the same home.
The big question Palestinian households debate is whether we should sleep in the same room so that when we die, we die together, or whether we should sleep in different rooms so some of us may survive.
The answer is always that we need to sleep in the living room together. If we die, we die together. No one has to deal with the heartbreak.
No food. No water. No electricity.
This 2023 war is different. Israel has intensified using hunger as a weapon. By completely besieging Gaza and cutting off the electricity and water supplies and not allowing aid or imports, Israel is not only putting Palestinians on a diet, but also starving them.
In my household, and we are a well-off family, my wife and I sat with the children and explained the situation to them, especially the little ones: âWe need to ration. We need to eat and drink a quarter of what we usually consume. Itâs not that we do not have money, but food is running out and we barely have water.â
And good luck explaining to your 7-year-old that she canât have her two morning eggs and instead she will be having a quarter of a bomb! (Israel later bombed the eggs.)
As a parent, I feel desperate and helpless. I canât provide the love and protection I am supposed to give my kids.
Instead of often telling my kids âI love you,â I have been repeating for the past two weeks:
âKids, eat less. Kids, drink less.â And I imagine this being my last thing I say to them and it is devastating.
Israel bombs our building
If we had a little food last week, now we barely have any because Israel struck our home with two missiles while we were inside. And without prior warning!
My wife Nusayba had already instructed the kids to run if a bombing happened nearby. We never expected [our building] to be hit. And that was a golden piece of advice.
I was hosting four families of relatives in my flat. Most of them were kids and women.
We ran and ran. We carried the little ones and grabbed the small bags with our cash and important documents that Gazans keep at the door every time Israel wages a war.
We escaped with a miracle, with only bruises and tiny scratches. We checked and found everyone was fine. And then we walked to a nearby UN school shelter, which was in an inhuman condition. We crammed into small classrooms with other families.
With that, we lost our last sense of safety. We lost our water. We lost our food and the remaining eggs that Amal loves.
We are an average Palestinian family. But we have had our fair share of Israeli death and destruction. In Gaza, no one is safe. And no place is safe. Israel could kill all 2.3 million of us and the world would not bat an eye.

On the status of my âThe Antisemitism Experimentâ tag:
So, when something is a straight up experience that someone had, I reblog it and add it to the queue.
When itâs something thatâs full of misinformation that I need to fact check and provide sources for, I often put it in drafts until I have the emotional capacity to deal with it. I have never even used the drafts function before starting this experiment. Everything in my drafts is from the experiment.
My Queue currently has 23 items.

My Drafts currently have 828 items.

Not even including the amount of antisemitic stuff Iâve already posted to the queue and removed from drafts, I want all the people who have sent me inbox messages or posted about experiences or felt like Iâm not including enough in my queue: I know.
I see you. The amount of insane misinformation we must combat is so unfair. The amount of grace under pressure and distress we must show in order for others to take our suffering seriously is unfair. The amount of misinformation that people uncritically take as fact is so harmful and unfair.
And thatâs all JUST the stuff I think is bad enough to be queued. The amount of insane bullshit I see every day is sickening and inexplicable.
This is why we Jews are so desperately asking for IRL visible support from our friends. We know how much antisemitic bullshit is out there. And the fact that non-Jews arenât talking about it regularly makes us wonder if itâs because you believe it and agree with it.
Itâs too ever present. Itâs too widespread. And if you havenât even privately reached out to your Jewish friends to check in or acknowledge their pain proactively, youâre part of the problem. If youâve actively distanced yourself from Jewish friends, youâve done more damage than youâll ever know. And itâs something that should haunt you for a lifetime. Itâs something you should learn from. Itâs something you need to make amends for.
Itâs never too late to reach out to a Jew you care about. Itâs never too late to apologize to a Jew youâve abandoned and to do better by them. Nobody acting in good faith is asking you to stop caring about Palestinian life. All we are asking is for you to care about Jews. Because we are people too.

âĄ/â- Patience [II]
ââĄââĄââĄââĄââĄââĄ

ââĄââĄââĄââĄââĄââĄ
⸠INTERESTS; -pro-hero!katsuki bakugo (26) x f!quirk-less reader (23)
⸠BACKGROUND; -During pro-hero 'Dynamite's term within the top 3 heroes of the country, it was made aware by his agency that he needed assistant around. He hadn't appreciated the gesture really, as he hates being followed let alone babysitting, but he wasn't ready for you to enter his life.
⸠WARNINGS; - wc. 3k, romantic tension, intentions of kissing, friendship buildup, romantic buildup, slight age gap, fight mention, affiliation mentions, jealousy, etc.
â¸a.i; - emptying out my drafts trust im making a comeback
â Ë・âŕ¨âĄŕ§â Ë・ââ Ë・âŕ¨âĄŕ§â Ë・
âĄ/â- Patience I
Nine months was a long period of time, however for the two of you it felt as if it passed by too swiftly. Skipping through certain holidays, birthdays, and even sick days with one another it truly never got old. You wouldn't call it best-friends, as this was a professional branch to which things should remain strict, but the two of you definitely had your moments.
At least in your description towards others your boss was your friend. He wasn't just a friend obviously, but he made you feel seen in a way you liked; you were flattered honestly to create a small bond with someone you hadn't known ever before.
Eventually, your relationship with one another began to progress, not enclose but progress. After months the two of you grew understanding and mutual of one another, learning one anotherâs dislikes and likes. Of course you adapted to things much sooner than he did, now no longer needing a log of his daily antics or acquaintanceâs. You were completely sure that whatever you would even tell Katsuki would go in one ear and come out the other.
Or at least thatâs what you thought, because in his case that was completely false. If it wasnât obvious enough his memory was just as sharp as his attitude, and he didnât have to carry around a little notepad like you had in order to keep tabs on what mattered to him. It mightâve seemed stupid to others and maybe himself, but the more you two interacted with one another the more he wanted to see you smile, or laugh even. Laugh so hard to the point where youâre huddled over clutching your stomach, so he could laugh alongside you.
He wasnât sure what it was about you or your nature, but whatever it was he liked it and it drew him to you. He had caught himself on numerous occasions going out with friends and going to the store wanting to invite you, to which he immediately brushed off and reminded himself everything between the two of you had to remain strictly professional. It hadnât stopped the fact that heâd encounter items and objects that reminded him of you, itâs like no matter what you were always with him, and he wasnât sure whether he liked it or hated it.
Like all things of course it quickly became annoying, he was the type of man to be bothered easily, that was something the two of you were aware of. No matter what he did or how he tried to avoid it things would constantly get out of hand, like how a couple weeks ago he âaccidentallyâ mentioned you to his close high school friend Mina while the group was out drinking and having fun. She immediately jumped on him and asked for more details, to which he explained you were his assistant and did a damn good job.
You were gentle, but harsh, cruel, ruthless, and a badass fighter. No matter how mean you attempted to make yourself you were as soft as can be on the inside. He thought of you as some sort of flower almost, one that refused to bloom for whatever reason. Your beauty on the outside that was wrapped tightly shut hadnât fazed him, only more interested on whatâs inside. He had even described it to Mina in that sense, that he wasnât even able to see a glimpse of your petals, and it was killing him to just get a look, for you to just let your guard down.
Thankfully for him God mustâve heard his prayers and pleas, because for whatever reason his mother had told him to personally invite you over for dinner on his fatherâs birthday and you came. Not only did you come, but you offered to help with anything she needed, even if she rejected your first offer. You were so gentle and caring, open almost, and honestly, he never thought you could be more beautiful than you were now.
You acted different with his parents, the entirety of it all he had barely spoken a word, just observed you. Mitsuki wasnât sure if it was because you were too busy helping her prepare or just oblivious to it, but she could tell exactly what her son felt for you by his looks. It only took on glance over to her husband with a firm nod before looking at their son and smiling to themselves as they set the table and spoke in hushed whispers.
He hadnât deemed it fair in his case, that he wasnât the one to bring out that side of you, to let your closed exterior loosen slightly. He hadn't minded it too much honestly, just seeing you outside of a work demeanor made him feel something warm inside. Still unsure if it was something he liked or disliked, all he knew was that he wanted to see you like this all the time.
He was quick to argue and bicker with his parents when they asked questions that seemed to out of character for them. Obviously digging into your personal life to know more about you and how working with their son was, hopefully not too much. Youâd laugh at their questions and jokes along the side as the 4 of you ate along together, nothing harmful in the makings of it, just enjoying one anotherâs company.
If there was any way youâd be better understanding of who you worked for itâs a great idea to have quality time with his family, it couldnât hurt. All the small and short details Katsuki had mentioned about his parents were honestly scary accurate, he used such little words to express how they were and yet was spot on.
You were quick to put two and two together on how Katsuki seemed much more like an observer than anything else. It wasnât that surprising honestly, but you had wished he would open up more too you, or at least speak to you more outside of just his daily schedule or texts every once and a while after getting home. You knew your job wasnât to be best friends with him, but it would be nice to at least enjoy one anotherâs company instead of walking around or sitting in his office in deafening silence.
Well, not entirely true, the loud air blasting through the square sized ventilation through the ceiling gave you some sort of closure. Beside it youâd play music quit often, only keeping one earbud in incase by any chance Katsuki would call out to you, but itâs never happened. Youâd catch him glancing over at you from time to time, as if he wanted to say something but couldnât, or maybe he did know what he wanted to say, he just refused too.
Whatever it was you didnât like it, it felt like there was a huge hole in the mists of the relationship you were trying so hard to build with him, and you didnât know why. Maybe you were reading into it too much as you had for everything before, he didnât seem like someone who cared so much, especially for little things, so why care so badly?
Everything was okay, dinner with his parents was okay, working alongside him throughout early mornings was okay, being an assistant and working on your training was okay, being in his office from time to time on weekends or his days off while he was in the room across during his âpersonalized gym timeâ was okay.
Well, better than okay, way better than okay, it was great, perfect even. It somehow gave you small motivation to get your work done even quicker to enjoy the show aside from you.
You werenât sure if he was able to catch you looking over at him several times or even staring for periods, but it got to a point where you didnât care. Besides, you were only human, any person who admires the athletic build of a person working out would sit and stare, or at least glance. No matter what was happening you couldnât help the feeling that things were just too bland, you didnât want everything to be just âokayâ you wanted them to be great or something enjoyable.
You missed how things started off prior when you first began working with Katsuki. The first month youâd get up energized on nothing but your erratic emotions sending you into a frenzy. You were excited to explore more with him, do more with him, now things felt so different and it bothered you highly.
âSame time tomorrow?â You asked without looking up, collecting things from Katsukiâs desk then making your way over to your own, emptying your busy hands into your empty computer bag. You awaited the same response that you had been receiving the past few weeks as you placed your laptop and itâs charger in itâs designated pouch before he spoke.
âActually Iâve been meaning to talk to ya.â He responded, now taking in your confused reaction as you turned to face him and pausing your actions. He only walked over shortly, leaving plenty of space between the two of you as he dried his hair with a small towel in one hand.
âAbout what exactly? Did something new come up with the agency or- â
âActually âts personalâ he cut you off, now seizing his movements with his hair before placing the towel over his shoulder. Your cocked brow soon lowered as you took a seat next to your items, now showing him he had your full attention before he continued.
âOkayâ you responded softly, placing your hands in your lap and flashing him a soft smile. He looked away at your face for a moment, before turning his back to face you entirely before speaking again.
âNot tryna be in your business.. but have you been busy with someone after work?â He asked, his voice stern as he made his way over to his desk before grabbing a rolled up paper and making his way back over to you. Your brows furrowed harshly as your lips pursed, before you could even part them to defend yourself Katsuki spoke again.
âCuz in this picture you seem enticed by whoever youâre chatting with.â He says honestly, unrolling the paper and handing it over to you, pointing directly at your face in the picture as he spoke. âOne of my publishers was going to post this out for millions to see, got caught by me last minute and I was asked for it to be terminated.â He said, reading your surprised expression as you attempted to piece all of this together.
From the looks of it this picture was of you, from 2 nights ago to be specific, catching up with a friend from university after hours before you had gotten back to your apartment. Stupidly in your case Katsuki had texted you asking if you got home safe and you stupidly lied to him. Where the two of you were was a public setting, so itâs not surprising that someone couldâve seen you two, you just never expected anything like this to happen, especially so suddenly.
The alarming title of the page being âPro-Hero Dynamiteâs Assistant; L/n Y/n sneaking around just to get some.â Making you immediately crumple it up out of frustration and shoving it in your work bag before sucking your teeth and apologizing profusely.
You hadnât expected for even you to grow a fan base, let alone paparazzi stalking you and your personal life with friends aside. You even explained that to Katsuki, and the titles being a bold accusation, there were thousands of things youâd do, have been trained to do, and sleep with a guy like F/n definitely wasnât one of them.
âI know, itâs okay I just wanted to run it by ya first, wasnât worried.â He said, walking back over to his desk and placing the damp towel down on it. Heâs such a liar, a good one at that. He was worried, head over heels worried, when he received that text with images from the publisher he nearly fell out of bed.
That fucking smile, he hated it, not you though, just the smile. Over time Katsukiâs been able to differentiate whether or not he actually dislikes people for their being or just their actions and presentation. He knew he didnât hate you, he just hated what you were doing to him, how you were making him feel.
Polar opposite to your own mornings now however Katsuki woke up determined, getting ready a little faster now. Wondering how youâd style your hair that morning or if youâd wear heavier amounts of makeup than before. If youâd glance over at him while he worked out, purposely taking in an extra fifteen minutes or so just to flex for fun.
The picture surprised him, but the possible title left him even more stunned. He knew you werenât that type of woman, especially the fact that you had lied about your safety and being home, he was taken aback. In your case he seemed much nicer and understanding than usual, but to him he saw it as letting down his barrier.
Maybe if he could do that you could smile with him as you had before, laugh as loud as heâd like you too. Which is ironic considering the fact he was sure he hated your smile, the way your teeth were aligned well enough to make him wonder if you had gotten braces and retainers in your past. Or maybe you were just bledsoe with them and moved on to nothing but whitening strips, maybe thatâs the case.
He found himself to be a little weird when he would just walk around and watch how youâd move hair away from your glossed lips whenever the wind was blowing outside. He was always quick to look away before you could even dream of catching him, but itâs not like you hadnât felt his eyes on yours.
After working alongside someone everyday for nearly 8 months you grow fond of one another. Although you werenât too happy with how your relationship seemed slightly distant, his presence was warming at some points. He was willing to speak to you when things were placed on your behave, like your past training and schooling or life before meeting him.
He liked your confidence and radiant energy whenever you did talk about your past, people youâve fought with, made up with, passed over and grew out of. What he picked up quickly was how you would talk with your hands whenever you were passionate about something, it was physically impossible to keep them down if you were talking.
Itâs funny honestly, he wants nothing more than you to express yourself and you want nothing more than for him to do it instead. Yet neither one of you were willing to communicate through the issue without seeming awkward afterwards so just kept everything to yourself. Even now through your small talk and chatter after the newspaper scandal it seemed that wasnât working.
Within evening realizing it you had been caught up and been lamps an hour behind your original leaving period. You quickly shot up from your seat and fixed your chair before flinging your bag over your shoulder.
âItâs getting late I have to go.â You said sternly, shoving your phone in your pocket before making your way over to the entrance before being abruptly stopped by Katsuki, who only stood in front of you without a word. You took in his state, he smelled good, sweet almost, like some sort of fruit or syrup and you really liked it, especially with how well it mixed in with his fading cologne.
He still hadnât said anything, just placed a hand on the door beside him as he looked into your eyes. You could feel yourself getting slightly dizzy by deciding which eye to look into, your vision flicking back and forth between the left and right for a period of time before scanning his face. It was almost as if he was pleading with you to stay in some way, or maybe thatâs what you wanted him to think, or at least say to you.
You were caught for a short moment staring at his lips before your breath hitched reaching out slowly to place a hand on his broad chest before he leaned in slowly. A short moment between the two of you that had only realistically passed in just a few seconds managed to feel like another hour has passed and it was killing you. You did the only thing you knew to do, look away from him, attempt to distance the tension and suffocation between the two of you.
âLet me.. let me walk you to your car.â He said, now placing his hand on the handle of the door before pulling it open before you. You quickly drew your hand back and looked up at his face once more, now slightly flustered as he looked away and bit the inside of his cheek.
You only agreed and thanked him, leaving the room and heading straight for the elevators as you replayed the moments prior in your head over and over again. You brought your hand up to your mouth for a moment thinking to yourself, then back to Katsukiâs reaction.
That was definitely intentional, and super weird. Things like that havenât happened to the two of you before, well not as close as it was earlier. The tension was strong but it seemed as if whatever was pushing the two of you towards each other was even stronger.
You sighed as you clutched your bag, the elevator dinging as it reached the lobby floor before you quickly stepped out, nearly bumping into someone on the side who was waiting for it. You were too in your thoughts to even apologize afterwards or look behind you, just digging in your pocket to get your keys.
You hadnât hated the thought of it, what nearly happened. Truth be told maybe if things did go the way they were hinting towards earlier there was no way the two of you wouldâve left the office in such short time. Maybe itâs better to not think of such things, especially such vulgar things, itâs just casual and professional, letâs leave it to that.
While you blew off the steam and marked your way over to your car Katsuki on the other hand was furious. Well furious was a strong word, more like embarrassed, embarrassed he hadnât taken things farther when he saw how willing you were to kiss him.
Maybe thatâs a bad thing, heâs never seen you so vulnerable and willing for something before, especially on his behalf and right in front of him. That wasnât his prior intention, he didnât want you to leave just yet, especially after cracking a horrid joke and seeing you laugh, but quickly covering your face with your hovering hand as you chuckled. He didnât want you to hide from him, he wanted you to be as open as possible.
If a small gesture could show that, or even your intent on nearly kissing him could prove that you were somewhat into what he was feeding you made him nonetheless anxious for more. You were beautiful to say the least, Katsuki was many things, but a liar wasn't one of them. He was honest, if not brutally honest when it came to you and what you were capable of, he just didn't expect one of those things to be reciprocating the same energy he was giving off.
He was so impatient, to the point where it felt as if it was eating him alive. For nearly 9 months he had been attempting to get closer to you, attempting to read you and find out what you favorited without asking. Now when he had you exactly where he wanted, where he needed you, he was the one to bail out and play it off like nothing happened.
Maybe working with one another was going to be way more difficult than you had in mind. Afterall, it was completely evident what the 'large gap' in the two of you's relationship was before it could even begin.

The Decorative Divide
Eddie Munson x Fem!Reader
(sort of) enemies to friends
â
My Masterlist
Summary: Dustin and Suzie request that you and Eddie work together to organize a special dinner for them.
Author's Note: This has been collecting dust in my drafts for a year but I didnât want to abandon it.
Kind of angsty with a happy ending, no use of y/n, Eddie and Reader are around 28 since Dustin and Suzie are 23, implied that Reader is single, self-indulgent mentions of midwestern food, not polished & was proofread to an extent.
Word Count: 2.8k
Warnings: bickering, both Eddie & Reader have quite an attitude and get a little mean, self-deprecation, instance of fainting, contains profanity.
As a close family friend, youâve had the privilege of knowing Dustin for years. Despite living two towns over from Hawkins, you often babysat him once you were old enough to be responsible, given your age gap.
Alongside your friendship with Dustin, you have also come to know Suzie. Dustin and Suzie met during their summer at Camp Know Where. Dustin and Suzie's love has stood the test of time. As young adults who have graduated college and built a life together, they have reached a significant milestone in their relationship.
To celebrate their joyous engagement, the pair has decided to host a casual dinner at their place and theyâve called on you to help. While you would typically be thrilled to take on the task of planning such an event for them, there's a catch. Youâre co-planning it with Eddie Munson.
Dustin has spoken highly of Eddie over the years, but your brief encounters with him have left you with a different impression. Contrary to the caring, creative, and devoted individual Dustin has described, you see him as loudâbordering on obnoxiousâand overly sure of himself.
When you were first introduced, he showed no interest in getting to know you beyond your face and first name. He appeared closed off and cynical, by the way he shook your hand. You felt as though heâd already decided who you were and what you were about just by looking you once over.
While it was rather impolite, it didnât bother you all that much at the time. You wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt since some people take time to open up. Even so, you were disinterested in engaging with someone so dismissive. The indifference toward each otherâs existence was mutual.
Dustin saw this party as an opportunity for you to get to know Eddie better. To the best of your ability, youâve mentally braced yourself for the likelihood that he doesnât have a clue about organizing a dinner party. By his looks and demeanor alone, it seems obvious that he hasnât had many opportunities to even attend one.
Maybe youâre being a bit unfair, relying on assumptions, but you have to have a backup plan in case itâs your intuition guiding you, not your cold judgment.
Having arrived not long ago, youâve been in the small kitchen of the coupleâs apartment for about ten minutes, busily preparing the space. You search the cupboards and retrieve the items you need, like a cutting board and casserole dish.
Your heart stammers when the front door slams shut, the reverberation shaking the thin walls. Just as you were starting to worry that Eddie might not show up at all, he has, albeit with a pulse-stopping entrance. Youâre relieved heâs here, despite the mini heart attack heâs just given you.
Thereâs a brief silence as he moves through the living room toward your direction. Shortly thereafter, you wince at the distinct squeak of each sneaker as he steps onto the linoleum floor of the kitchen.
With an air of nonchalance, Eddie is holding a heavy paper bag of groceries, appearing unfazed by the fact that heâs fifteen minutes late.
Rising slowly from your squatted position in front of the counter cabinet, you release a subtle huff. Glancing down at your watch before directing it at him, you remark, âJesus, where the hell have you been? Dustin said youâd be here at 4:30.â
âWell, you see, I had this stupidly long list I had to tend to first,â Eddie retorts as he carelessly plops the bag onto the island that separates the two of you. A glass jar at the bottom of the bag clicks against the granite upon contact.
âOf course, you waited until the last minute to go to the store,â You suppress an eye-roll, but the tone of your voice carries the same effect as if youâd done one. Removing the items off of the top of the bag and working your way further in, you mentally check off the list. Tater tots, ground beef, canned green beans, pudding mix, Cool Whip, Snickers⌠âYou forgot the apples,â As you near the bottom of the bag, you glance up at him before withdrawing the one remaining item.
âNah,â Eddie gestures to the medium-sized jar youâre holding while wearing a confused expression. âJust got that instead.â
âI specifically wrote down one bag of apples. Why the hell did you get applesauce?â You hold it out to the side while you question him, the tension in your body language growing increasingly rigid.
âI figured it would make your job easier. Now you donât have to waste your time mashing whole-ass apples. Duh?â Eddie pulls a stool out from under the lip of the island and perches himself on it. Oblivious to your irritated stare, he begins to fiddle with the stack of paper napkins that he blindly threw into the shopping cart, neglecting to grab regular white and instead carelessly opting for ugly patterned ones.
âWhy on earth would I be mashing-â you begin, pinching the bridge of your nose between your thumb and index finger. âThis is useless to me!â You set the jar down a bit harder than necessary, causing it to thud rather than clink like it had before. âIf Iâd known you were gonna bring me baby food, then I wouldâve just gone to the store myself.â
âHow was I supposed to know what you need apples for? Nobody told me shit.â
âYou donât need to be told anything, all you had to do was follow the list,â you round the island and snatch up your car keys and purse. âDonât burn the place to the ground while Iâm gone, please?â You storm out of the kitchen, muttering to yourself all the way to your car.
You have to drive halfway across town and back before you can even start properly preparing dinner, which is beyond frustrating because now youâre even more behind schedule. Once you arrive back at Dustin and Suzieâs apartment, Eddie is lounging on the couch tossing a baseball in the air, not having been tasked with anything since you left.
You put him on the job of tossing together the Snickers salad. Itâs just three ingredients, thereâs no reason he shouldnât be able to handle that. All he has to do is mix Cool Whip with chunks of apple and Snickersâitâs not rocket science.
Youâve been so focused on browning the beef for the hotdish that you havenât been checking in on him. When you finally look over your shoulder to do so, you notice that Eddie is chopping the apples and Snickers bars into rather large chunks. âEddie-â
âOh my god, what?â he snaps, setting the knife down noisily and turning to you. âWhatâs your problem now?â
âYou have to cut those smaller, or else all of our friends are going to choke and die. Weâre celebrating an engagement, not planning a mass funeral.â
Eddieâs head throbs with how hard his eyes roll back. He bites his tongue and shakes his head. âAs you wish, Your Highness,â he mutters sarcastically. Albeit loudly, he does as you asked and dices the pieces. Under his breath, he adds, âRoyal pain in the ass, if you ask me.â
As you finish up the main course and put it into the oven, Eddie is in the dining room on a short step ladder hanging up streamers. You step into the room to inspect and itâs immediately evident how crooked they are. The sound of your sigh prompts him to drop his head and take a tense breath, his arms still outstretched above him.
You stand there, arms crossed, eyeing him from below. âItâs not straight. Youâve gotta go up by like three inches on the left. Are you even trying to make this look good?â
âI am, actually!â Eddie barks, dropping the side of the streamer he was holding. It floats to the floor, only attached to the wall on one end. He backs down the ladder and turns to face you. âJust because I'm not obsessed with every little fucking detail like you doesnât mean I'm not trying. If you stopped being a control freak for five minutes, youâd see that itâs fine the way it is.â
You scoff, your crossed arms tightening. âControl freak? I just want everything to look nice. Is that a crime?â
âNo, itâs not. But youâre nitpicking and micromanaging every fucking thing I do.â
You jut out your chin as you speak, standing your ground. âItâs a special night. If it were my dinner, Iâd want everything to be perfect.â
âYeah? I bet. Except it isnât yours. Who would even propose to you anyway? Youâd probably tell them exactly how to do that too,â Eddie pauses, his gaze hard and fixed on you, watching for a shift in your expression thatâll indicate whether youâre even listening to him. âIf you want it done a certain way then just do it your damn self.â
âAt this rate, thatâs the only choice I have. Move then.â You motion for Eddie to step out of the way, and he promptly stomps out of the room. Before you can climb up the ladder in his place, the phone rings. You answer, and itâs Suzie.
She adds a few more tasks to your already extensive list, leaving you feeling utterly overwhelmed with the level of upset youâre already at. Despite how much your head is spinning, youâre adamant that you wonât ask Eddie for help. Youâre convinced that heâll just continue to half-ass everything all while hurling insults at you.
After you promise Suzie that everything will be taken care of in an upbeat tone, you hang up and suppress the frustrated tears pricking your eyes. You return to the streamers and bend over to retrieve the abandoned string. The weight of exhaustion sets in as you climb the ladder, determined to see the job through.
Your palms feel clammy and the thought of holding the sharp thumbtack makes you nervous, but you push the worry away. Persevering, you reach high above your head and try to position the streamer even with the opposite end. You have to lean on your tiptoes a bit, and thatâs when the light-headedness swarms. Youâre not taking deep enough breaths, and your balance begins to waver.
Youâve been so dead set on ensuring that everything goes smoothly tonight that youâve neglected to take proper care of yourself. Just as youâre securing the streamer to the wall, you lose your balance entirely.
Amidst patting himself down for his pack of cigarettes, Eddieâs attention is abruptly stolen by the loud thump in the dining room. âWhat the fuck was-â he peeks into the dining room and he spots you lying on the floor. âOh, shit,â Eddie rushes over and drops to his knees beside you, his features etched with concern. âAre you okay?â At first, heâs unsure of what he should do. But when he sees that youâre attempting to sit up, he hesitantly guides you. âDid you hit your head?â Once youâre seated upright, Eddie leans in to inspect the back of your skull, as if expecting to find a cartoonish goose egg.
âI donât know, but Iâm fine,â you groggily dismiss his concern, adjusting your position so that you can slouch against the fall. âI just missed a step, thatâs all.â
âWhen was the last time you ate or drank anything?â His brown eyes are wide and shining with concern at your drained appearance. âSay the word and Iâll bring whatever you need.â
âI said Iâm fine,â you insist, tears brimming in your eyes as you pull your knees up to your chest. âI just- this dinner is so important for them. If I canât give them a simple party then-â You try to take a deep breath but it stuttersâa tearful hiccup. âYou were right. Iâll never have my own party like this. I guess I just want to give them a night I can only dream of.â
Eddieâs frown deepens as he looks down, picking at his cuticles. Heâs kicking himself for the hurtful comment he made earlier. At the time, he didnât realize how deeply that would cut you; he hit you where it hurts. Right now, he wants to reach out, hold your hand, and apologize. Eddie wants to tell you that youâre doing a good job.
You should be taking care of yourself instead of piling all of the pressure onto yourself to satisfy Dustin and Suzieâs requests. He wants to express that, but he canât. Not after what he said.
In the awkward silence, a humorless laugh escapes you, your embarrassment palpable for exposing the vulnerable side of yourself to him. Harshly, you swipe at your tears, a sting following soon after. Both of you jolt at the timer ringing in the kitchen. You squint through your tear-blurred vision at the clock on the wall. âFuck, itâs almost 6:30 already.â
You rise unsteadily to your feet, leaving Eddie uncertain, unsure of what to say or if he should even offer to give you a hand at this point. As you fix your hair and try to even out your breaths, you steel yourself for whatâs to come. You head back into the kitchen, slipping seamlessly back into work mode.
Eddie gets to his feet a few beats later, but his movements are slow and cautious as he follows, almost as if heâs afraid to intrude. Sheepishly, he enters the room. Youâre taking the casserole out of the oven and gathering plates and flatware rather hastily. Despite there being plenty of time and no need to rush, youâre still being hard on yourself.
Twisting the silver bracelet on his wrist, Eddie steps closer to the island. âWhat can I do to help?â he asks softly, almost cowardly. âIâll do it the right way this time, I promise.â
You pause. He was right twice over; you were being a control freak, bossing him around. With far less frustration and impatience, you look at him. Though, thereâs still a hint of hurt and weakness in your voice. âWould you mind setting the table? Iâll be there in a sec.â
Eddie nods eagerly, a relieved grin tugging at the corners of his lips. Heâs grateful that youâre letting him participate even though heâs fucked everything up so far. He gathers the plates and silverware and carries them to the dining table, setting down a plate in front of each chair.
However, he stops in his tracks, realizing that he doesnât know how to formally set a table. Lost in thought, he mentally searches for the information that he doesnât have archived, not knowing where the fork and spoon are supposed to be placed.
You enter the room and tilt your head at his trance-like state. âDaydreaming?â You quip, your voice playful and carried with softness, a far cry from the previous tenseness.
âNo, I uh- â Eddie starts, then looks over at you. âWhere do you want me to put these?â He holds up his fistful of the silverware.
âWherever you think is best,â You reply, offering him a small grinâthe warmest heâs ever seen on you.
A warmth spreads in his chest and the apples of his cheeks go rosy. He breaks eye contact and murmurs, âOkay, cool.â
When Dustin and Suzie return home, theyâre ecstatic with how the place looks. During dinner, everyone is seated around the tableâMike, Lucas, Max, you and Eddie, Steve, and Robin.
Amidst the intermingling conversations, Eddie rises from his seat and clinks his cutlery against his drinking glass. Voices fade off and all eyes turn to him. His gaze sweeps around the table, a kind smile playing on his lips.
He clears his throat, rolls his shoulders back, and raises his glass. âTo the happy couple,â Eddie begins, his voice carrying easily through the small room. âAnd to this little lady beside me, who worked so hard to make tonight as great as it is.â
You shy away when he winks at you. The chorus of agreement and praise overtakes your senses. When you chance a look at him, his focus hasnât shifted. Heâs still looking down at you, but this time with a dazzling smile. Your eyes meet, and for a moment, everything stills.
In his chocolate gaze, you see something differentâno longer disinterest, but instead, gratitude and genuine admiration. Raising your glass, you join the collective toast. Dustin mouths âthank youâ from across the table, and you nod in acknowledgment.
As Eddie sits back down, you bump his shoulder with your own. âI couldnât have done it without you.â
He snorts and gives you a playful look. âSure you couldâve.â
âWell, Iâm glad I didnât have to,â You say sincerely, tilting your glass toward him.
He responds by tapping his glass against yours, a silent acknowledgment of the forced collaboration. If it werenât for that, he might have never gotten the chance to uncover your dedication and selflessness. The swirling warmth in his belly sparks curiosity about what other qualities he might admire in you.
One thing is for certain, Eddie is eager to find out.

Moon, a hole of light | JB22 x SV5

summary . . . Jenson Button and Sebastian Vettel, one of the most esteemed names in Formula 1. Well, their names held a different story than their behaviour. Mischief, troublemaking and much more came with these two. Will the grid be able to survive?
request . . . yes!
word count . . . 1.6k
warnings . . . cursing
alexavia yaps . . . idk if this is good or not bc i literally just put a bunch of ideas together and hoped it was good </3 i accidentaly deleted the first draft so i lost the authors note and summary dni

2010, it was a year to be in F1. Many legends were on the grid, aswell as new rookies striving for greatness. But there was one pair that stood out more than the others, Jenny and Sebby, as they called themselves.
Jen and Seb, another name for them, were the troublemakers and pranksters of the grid. They were either driving or causing trouble, no in between. They made sure their PR Managers lived in misery and vain, but at least they had fun, right?
"SEBASTIAN VETTEL! COME RIGHT HERE!" Jenson's shout came from his driver's room in Mclaren. Seb, who was waiting around the corner grinned and tried to stifle his laugh as he walked over to the driver's room.
Seb slowly opened the door, trying to hold his laughter at the sight in front of him, but then failing. There stood a red-face Jenson Button, but quite literally. His face and body were stained a bright red, his fists clenched and shaking.
It took all his will to not punch Sebastian right then and there.
You'd think that a 30 year old man and a 23 year old would be mature, and have some common sense, right? Well, if you ever met Seb and Jen, you'd instantly know you were wrong. They were even more immature than a pair of 5 year olds, which was a bit surprising.
"I'm telling you to loosen up my buttons, babe" Sang Sebastian to Jenson, who rolled his eyes and shook his head disappointingly.
"I regret teaching you that this song even existed." He muttered, eyes closed and head in his hands.
"Well, too bad. I've already memorised all of it." Laughed Seb, pointing his finger at Jenson in a taunting manner.
"You did not!" Exclaimed Jenson, his eyes comically wide.
"Yes IÂ did!"
"God, what am I going to do with you?" Jenson sighed, his shoulders deflating.
"Nothing, because you're never getting rid of me!" Seb started skipping around him in circles, singing the lyrics to Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls.
"God please help me."Â
"A beekeeper?!"Jenson shouted, his jaw almost on the floor.
"What's wrong with being a beekeeper?" Seb shouted back, his arms going across his chest defensively.
"That's so...adorable and cutesy! It does not fit you!"
"Yes it does!" Seb argued, his voice slightly cracking.
"Does not!"
"Does"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"Nuh uh!"
"Shut up!"
"Jeez, way to stop an argument." Jenson laughed, blowing air out of his mouth.
"Fuck off, Jen. You want to be a DILF."
"Whyâs my entire table filled with⌠carrots?" Seb stared at the small mountain of carrots spilling out as he opened his locker.
Jenson strolled into the room, arms crossed, leaning casually against the doorframe with a smirk. "Just making sure youâre eating healthy. Thought you could use a bit of beta-carotene, mate."
Seb rolled his eyes, grabbing a handful of carrots and shoving them into Jensonâs arms. "Fine, but youâre eating them with me. Enjoy your five-a-day."
"Why is there glitter⌠everywhere?" Jenson asked, his voice barely holding back a mix of rage and laughter as he opened his driverâs bag to find every item coated in a thick layer of sparkles.
Seb was practically bent over in silent laughter, barely able to breathe. "Itâs called adding flair, Jen. A little sparkle in your life never hurt."
Jenson held up his helmet, which was covered in glitter, and just shook his head. "You're dead, Vettel. You better start running now."
During one race weekend, Jenson was doing a live interview, being the picture of professionalism, answering questions and playing the PR game as usual. But right on the edge of the frame, Seb popped up wearing a pair of sunglasses and holding a cardboard sign that said, 'Free Hugs from Jenson.'
Without any hint of annoyance or surprise, Jenson smirked at the camera and pointed behind him. "Alright, guys, you heard him. Go find Seb if you want hugs. Might be the only time heâs offering them to the public."
During a fan Q&A, a young fan asked Jenson how he would describe Seb in three words.
Jenson looked at Seb, pretending to be in deep thought. "Hmm⌠a bee loving menace."
Seb grinned, crossing his arms. "Best description Iâve ever had. What would you be?"
"Easy," Jenson replied with a grin. "Sebâs number one fan."
The audience burst into laughter, and Seb dramatically placed a hand over his heart. âAww, Jen, you shouldnât have!"
"Sebastian, whatâs your proudest achievement in F1 so far?" a journalist asked during a media day.
Seb was mid-sentence, talking about his wins, when Jenson appeared out of nowhere, a huge smirk on his face. "Oh, I can tell you. Itâs definitely pranking me with a cardboard cutout of myself in my hotel room at 3 a.m. Nearly gave me a heart attack."
Seb burst out laughing. "It was life-sized! I figured youâd love the surprise!"
"Oh, I loved it," Jenson replied sarcastically. "Especially when I walked in and saw myself staring back at me. Almost had to call security."
Then there was the time when Seb was asked if he ever got nervous before races.
"No, not really," Seb replied calmly, then paused as Jenson slid into the shot behind him, eyebrows raised.
"Are we forgetting Singapore? 2009? Because I remember somebody pacing around like a madman that morning, muttering something about needing more breakfast."
Seb glared at him, trying to stifle his grin. "I wasnât nervous! I was⌠focused."
"Right, focused on finding an extra croissant," Jenson said, leaning into the mic. "He was unstoppable once he got it."
In a rare joint interview, Jenson and Seb sat down with a reporter, who knew that having these two together would be nothing short of entertaining chaos. The interviewer barely got to her first question before things went to chaos.
"So, Jenson," she began with a smile, "how do you and Seb keep such a good dynamic? I mean, you're known as one of the most iconic duos in the paddock, but there's clearly some⌠competitive spirit there."
Jenson gave a small chuckle, glancing over at Seb, who already had a smug grin. "Well, I think itâs because weâve both come to terms with the fact that we'll never stop pranking each other."
Seb scoffed, leaning back in his chair. "Me? Iâm the one whoâs just a tiny bit competitive? Remember Monaco, Jen? You may as well have had steam coming out of your ears by the end of that one."
"Donât act innocent, Seb," Jenson shot back, eyebrows raised. "Who was the one who replaced my carâs steering wheel with a pink one with âPrincessâ written on it?"
Seb laughed, clearly proud of his prank. "Oh, come on! You did look quite royal with it."
The interviewer was grinning ear to ear, clearly loving their dynamic. "Okay, okay, letâs settle this! Whatâs the biggest prank you two have pulled on each other?"
Sebâs eyes sparkled, leaning forward like heâd been waiting for this question."Thatâs easy. Spain, last season. He had this brand new helmet design heâd been bragging about for weeks. It had all these fancy graphics, and he wouldnât stop talking about it."
Jensonâs eyes widened as he realized what Seb was about to reveal. "Donât you dare, Seb!"
"Oh, Iâm telling them," Seb said, grinning. "So, I may have⌠slightly changed his helmet."
"Slightly?" Jenson cut in, exasperated. "You replaced my name with a cartoon donkey and slapped a rainbow on it!"
Seb was barely able to keep a straight face. "And it looked amazing. He didnât realize it until he was already at the track, visor down, ready for the press photos."
Jenson shook his head, grinning despite himself. "Every photographer at the track got a picture of that disaster. You know how hard it was to live that down?"
The interviewer was in stitches, barely able to get her next question out. "Alright, Jenson, whatâs the biggest prank youâve pulled on Seb?"
"Oh, this one was good," Jenson said, rubbing his hands together like he was planning a grand scheme. "It was right before Silverstone, and Seb had just gotten this new superstitious thing about his driverâs suit. Something about âneeding it perfectly creasedâ for luck."
Seb rolled his eyes. "Donât remind me."
"So, I⌠may have swapped his suit with one that was three sizes too small and had bright neon green stitching." Jenson shrugged, feigning innocence. "I figured if he really needed luck, heâd work with whatever he had."
Seb slapped his forehead, laughing. "I couldnât even breathe in that thing! I walked around like a robot all morning until someone finally told me where heâd put my actual suit."
The interviewer chuckled, leaning in. "Do you two ever get tired of the pranks? I mean, donât they ever just get exhausting?"
Seb and Jenson exchanged a look, then shook their heads in unison.
"Itâs like an unspoken rule at this point," Jenson explained. "He pranks me, I prank him back. Keeps things interesting. And the paddock seems to find it entertaining."Â (he push me i push him back)
Seb nodded, adding, "And, hey, it makes those PR events a little less boring. Like that one event in Monaco where he wouldnât stop complaining about the heat, so I âhelpedâ by swapping his water bottle with sparkling lemonade. Thought heâd appreciate the upgrade."
Jenson shot Seb a look. "Upgrade? Seb, it was carbonated. I sprayed half of it all over my suit before I realized it."
"Good times," Seb said, smiling like it was a fond memory.
The interviewerâs eyes twinkled with excitement as she moved on to her next question. "Alright, last one! If you could describe each other in one sentence, what would it be?"
Seb tapped his chin, pretending to think deeply. "Oh, thatâs easy. Jenson is the most patient man on the planetâŚÂ for putting up with me."
Jenson laughed, leaning back in his chair. "You got that right."
"And what about you, Jenson?" the interviewer asked, curious.
Jenson looked at Seb with a playful glint in his eye. "Sebastian Vettel⌠the gridâs biggest headache, but somehow my best friend."
Seb looked mock offended. "Hey, I prefer âlegendary troublemaker.â"
They both burst out laughing, and the interviewer shook her head, thoroughly entertained. "Alright, I think weâve got enough stories to keep F1 fans laughing for weeks!"

what's in guy's workbag that he asked honey to get for him in the very first audio. I included various hcs and references in it!
explanations and closeups below:
Bag
Monster energy : he has to get all that energy from Somewhere. I see him as the type to not enjoy drinking water either.
HBS wristband : it's the wristband from the concert he and Honey attended during HBS '23.
Live, Laugh, Lactate : obscene patch that he puts there solely because Honey hates it
Musical pins : pins of Hamilton and Rent, two musicals that I think Guy would enjoy.
Embroidered logo : I like to think that honey did that for fun.
Yosemite National Park pin : reference to the fact that Dahlia's in California
Misc. Pop Culture Pins : Carmen sandiego (" Are you a titular character from the game Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego because Ivan Idea."), Junji Ito + Cardcaptor Sakura + Percy Jackson (I brainstormed with @joshusten on what media Guy would enjoy and I wholeheartedly agree with their suggestions <3 love u sten) , D-20 dungeon master pin (Guy definitely is one)
Items
Keys + carabiner : keys to his and Honey's apartment
Chocolate : Reference to his first audio where he took chocolate home from work because apparently Honey is a chocolate fiend.
Phone : the bee charm is a gift from Honey, they have a matching pizza one. He drops his phone a lot hence the screen smashed to smithereens.
Draft Book : As a writer he needs to jot down ideas quickly so he needs a notebook at hand. Stickers are from DFF, Dahlia Film Festival, that he attended as a scriptwriter of a short film, and University of Dahlia's Creative Writing and Literature Society, that he was a part of back in college.

fashion designer s/o hcs ; wally

requested by ; anonymous (27/05/23)
fandom(s) ; welcome home
fandom masterlist(s) ; here
character(s) ; wally darling
outline ; âHello! Could I request Wally darling from welcome home with a Fashion designer! reader? (Headcanons)â
warning(s) ; none, just fluff!
the two of you are a match made in heaven: a traditional artist with a unique and distinct sense of style, and a fashion designer happy and able to adapt it
you have stacks upon stacks of sketchbooks at home, which you keep in a room alongside all of wallyâs paintings for safe keeping
youâre always admiring and (when asked) offering suggestions about each otherâs projects â colour corrections, fabric combinations, and so on
he is your main model for the first draft of any clothes you produce â whether you intend items for a male or female audience does not matter to him, heâs happy to help regardless
any articles of clothing that you design for him are kept clean, pressed and neat at all times â heâd hate to spoil such a lovely gift after all, so he takes great care to keep those items safe
he does wear them of course, heâd hate for your work to go to waste, and heâs always happy to show off your work â heâs just very meticulous about cleaning and ironing after the fact, thatâs all
eternally praising your skill and talking to anyone and everyone about how amazing and talented his partner is â this genuine bragging is only made exponentially worse if they happen to compliment something that youâve designed
the epitome of âproud boyfriendâ and he wears that title with pride
if your designs make it to the stage for shows then you can guarantee that heâs bought front row seats to support you
and if your clothes appear in magazines then heâs going to be buying each and every new entry
has painted and sketched these models in your designs, their bodies and faces indistinct as he focuses on your work specifically: the colour, the cut, the layering, the shapes and the textures of the fabrics
you and your passion inspire him immensely and he isnât afraid to admit that, always being the first one with you to celebrate your achievements â but heâs also there to support you when you reach a creative block
sharing techniques and exercises that he uses to help you out, and if all else fails bringing you your favourite warm drink so you can cuddle up on the settee and vent out your frustrations
because he gets it and you get it and sometimes itâs nice to just be understood
wally is with you through the good and the bad, the highs and lows of your career, cheering you on from the sidelines and helping you find your feet when you stumble
attending every interview and show, witnessing your sketches come to life, standing by you as you come into your own in this competitive environment and helping you stay afloat even when you feel youâre drowning
that same smile always on his face no matter what â even if it does get a bit strained when you take his measurements for the 97th time (itâs only 8am let the poor man put his hair up already, he doesnât want to be picking blue hair out of his teeth before breakfast)
doing whatever he can to support you because youâve done the same for him â because thatâs what you do for the people you love
and because, to wally, you really are the absolute most

Happy Writing Wednesday Thursday! â¨
Take today to write and post something new! Fiction or non-fiction, formal or informal, anything goes if it's related to alterhumanity or nonhumanity!
If you're feeling especially inspired this month, check out my system's Alterhuman Writing Challenge. If you're interested in seeing what other people have been writing for it, some participants have been using the #AHPI Writing Challenge tag!
For folks who need jumping off points or prompts for this week:
Are there any kinds of drinks or types of food which trigger shifts or which you otherwise tie strongly to your alterhuman identity?
Some alterhumans experience euphoria or dysphoria directly related to their identity. Do you? What are ways you've found to mitigate or cope with dysphoria? What are things that make you euphoric?
Do you have any body modifications or wearable items (also sometimes called gear) related to your alterhumanity? What is it, and what is its significance?
What are some ways that your alterhumanity comes up in your every day, offline life? This can be something as simple as food preferences and what you're liable to keep in the fridge, or something as complex as the ways your alterhumanity has shaped your choice of career path or living location.
FICTION: Write a newspaper article, advice column, or advertisement from a world where magic and shapeshifting is completely normal.
CHALLENGE: Write 350 words or more on any WIP draft you have! If you feel comfortable, post an excerpt here!
If you want to write but none of these prompts appeal to you, you can also check out previous Writing Wednesday prompts for discussion ideas: 10/16, 10/23, 10/30.
(Apologies for the belated post; yours truly is sick with something that hopefully isn't Covid-19!)

INTERMISSION
A guide to Before the Big Bang
Another Danganronpa Another has no affiliation with LINUJ, and is a stand-alone fan-made work which is unconnected to any other works inspired by LINUJâs projects.
CONTENT WARNING
Before the Big Bang repeatedly discusses: child abuse, child neglect, child abandonment, child labor, and parental death. Suicide, gaslighting, toxic dynamics, ableism, classism, homophobia, and transphobia are present in the story. Substances (drugs, alcohol), religious abuse, and (attempted) child murder are mentioned, but not depicted. The game begins with a scene depicting Before the Big Bang being âbooted upâ, and struggles with dissociation, depersonalization, and derealization are portrayed; readers who struggle with unreality are advised to exercise caution
IN-UNIVERSE
Another Danganronpa Another: Before the Big Bang! is the first âinstallmentâ in the Gods Will duology, the Sun Side of the two games. A scrapped first draft of Danganronpa Another ~ Another Despair Academy, upon trying to launch the completed game⌠this is all the computer would run. Contains the same characters, with the same names and talents- but it will quickly become clear this is the most they have in common. Class 79-B was set to start their first year at Hopes Peak Academy, but have now found themselves participating in a game of mutual killing. We follow Maeda Yuki as he tries to navigate gifting his classmates during their free time events, keeping the conversation on track during class trials, and ignoring his constant creeping feeling that thereâs something heâs missing.Â
OUT-OF-UNIVERSE
Before the Big Bang is an AU of Danganronpa Another started on August 23rd, 2019. Colloquially referred to as âBeta AUâ after a Danganronpa Distrust AU I was writing in 2018, Another Danganronpa Another deals with the mirrored reflections of the DRA cast- different personalities and behaviors, but something at the core of the character that rings true to their original writing. The original account was deleted in April of 2020, but quickly remade, and while most original posts were lost to the ether, this was handled⌠by rewriting what had been deleted at a speed of four posts/day. âRewrite 23â is the tag used for posts which have been rewritten since that happened, so if one post suddenly seems to be a bit more polished than the posts before/after it, check to see if itâs tagged with that- itâs possible itâs a higher quality because itâs more recent!
MECHANICS
At the end of most posts, youâll be given {two or more} {options} which you can pick between. If no asks are sent in, one of Maedaâs classmates will take matters into their own hands, and make the choice for Maeda. If multiple asks are sent in, majority rules- in the case of an even split, the ask that was sent first takes precedence. Occasionally, youâll be given the option to freely roam the school, instead of being given options.
As this is a Tumblr ask blog, and not a coded video game, thereâs a person reading your asks! So long as I can see what your intent is, Iâll do my best to follow along within the parameters of the game. This applies to both free roam, and to asks selecting options. Maeda may not go for your exact suggestion, but, for example- if itâs time for Free Time Events, and an ask is sent saying âwe should go throw hands with Tsu. or we could give him item 104 igâ, Maeda will go spend his FTE opportunity with Tsurugi, and will give him Item #104. Donât worry about needing to be formal!
HOW-TO
Following the âStartâ link below will allow you to read every post, in chronological order. Visiting the Chapter Chrono page (through the âExitâ link) will allow you to read posts in chronological order, starting at the specific chapter you choose. Every post is tagged with âdraâ, which is used to read through every post chronologically. A similar format is used to read chapters chronologically, however, these links arenât currently fully functional. Eventually, youâll be able to read specifically daily/deadly lifes in chronological order, however, posts from the first two chapters arenât tagged properly for this. Re-tagging is a work in progress, but chapters as a whole can still be read individually, and the daily/deadly life specific tags are in place for Chapter 3.
Especially beginning in the third chapter, posts can be lengthy, and the work is extensive- though an official word count is currently unavailable, an example: the third chapter's investigation was 36 posts, and over 95k words. Those with the free time to spend a few hours a day to spend on reading can generally get through beta in ~five days. For those who arenât looking for that sort of undertaking, the current recommendation (as of August 2024, during the third trial) is to use the âReplayâ link below, read up until the final introduction, then utilize the Chapter Chrono page (through the âExitâ link), and either begin reading at the start of the third chapter, or the start of the third deadly life. Visiting the Synopsis Page (through the âExitâ link) will provide you with summaries of what happened on different days of the killing game, to catch you up on what youâre missing- without having to read through everything immediately.
LINKS
Tumblr hates showing the extra pages on this blog.
E-Handbook is a navigational page. Meant to model the E-Handbooks in Danganronpa games, this page contains the following.
âClass 79-Bâ is a navigational page which contains profiles on each of the students. These pages should contain synopses of any completed free time events, but this is a work in progress. âItemsâ is a page listing how many Monocoins Maeda currently has, the things heâs won from the Mono-machine, and other things heâs received. âSchool Rulesâ is a list of the school rules the students must abide by. âTruth Bulletsâ is a page only available during the deadly life segment. It has descriptions of any truth bullets Maeda has, and links back to the post he got them in.
Exit is a navigational page, which contains bonus pages that donât align with the E-handbook.
âHelpâ contains a list of any notes/explanations which are given during the game. Primarily, this consists of trial mechanics. âSynopsisâ is a page which summarizes whatâs happened so far in the game, breaking it down on a day by day basis. âAccount Infoâ contains a more detailed explanation of the AU, links to other relevant blogs, and contains some other miscellaneous details. âChapter Chronoâ allows readers to revisit specific chapters, and view their posts in chronological order.
Replay allows readers to read the entirety of Before the Big Bang from the first post.
QUESTIONS
Please send any questions to @another-dra-anew! Asks which are unrelated to the ongoing story, but get sent here, will be answered and kept up for a week, before being reblogged to Anew, and deleted from this account.

chap pap 2 - electric boogaloo (well actually itâs about plumbing)
you ever start writing and you just cannot seem to find an end so you keep going forever? yeah. - đ§ââď¸đ§ââď¸đ§ââď¸ i would kill to read your drafts anyhooo
Sitting in the back corner booth (your favourite) with Syd - yoooo the one she sat in with carmy and also mikeyâs carving!! tonyâs restaurant!! the circles are circling
âYou wish you were dead when youâre there, but youâd rather be dead than do anything else?â - onion you are just describing life on a movie set (also i want to find a new nickname for you but iâm struggling)
âDad cut the cord on his business phone when it transferred to meâ - not entirely true now is it chippy!! well maybe it is but i just remember the thing about her not wanting people to be able to reach her after mikey
squidink are so cute, their lil morning date, and whatâd you know they shared a smoochy smooch after
You would argue you're not even that close, but he'd slap you upside the head. - AS HE SHOULD!! (iâd go to war for their friendship)
you told Mikey he was getting a mold problem. - chippy is just superior
âSâbeen a while since heâs had a good influence.â - chippy being close with louis and eva just makes me:â))))
âIâm just saying, youâre alike.â - the way they all see it. oh be still my beating heart
He makes you jump for it - my 5â1 ass would be fucked. i mean i would TRY, trust, but
if you take all his names. - kicking ass and taking names, literally
On your way to the kitchen, youâre stopped and walked backwards to a booth in the corner by Richie. - this makes me emotional. i love them so much stop
not Richie coming with your ice water, but Carmen - pookie!!! wait now i just see the word poo, okay scratch that- BABYBOY!!!<3<3
He pauses mid slide into the booth, sitting across from you. He seemed all cool and collected and is now suddenly extremely caught off guard. Already sweaty. âY-yeah, Iâm better, thank youââ - this is the cutest interaction in the whole series. YEAH I SAID IT
âCarmy is fine. Tony is fine?â âIâm doing okay, yeah.â - HOW AM I NOT SUPPOSED TO BE UNHEALTHILY OBSESSED WITH THEM
You nod down at the dish. âDo the thing.â - i mean i know sheâs the guy, but the way they seem so comfortable with each other (like old friends) already is so special to me
Two things can be true - they can!!
âItâs the plate, isnât it? I told Sydââ - the plate 𼚠rip to a real one (jk it survived, but it was almost a frisbee)
You put a hand on his knee to stop the shaking - now iâm shaking
Youâre nothing. Youâreâ - she and carmy are soooo similar ugh
âWho needs a coffee? Or water?â - my fave barista!!
Marcus has fresh coffee beans (that heâs willing to share!) - marcus crumb<33 backgroud bestieee
Itâs too worth it, when she says it like that and slaps your cheek - it would add like 10 years to my life for sure
You switch it for a spiced coffee when heâs not looking. Heâs silently very thankful. - chip really is that girl we knew she was
supreme favouritism - which carmy later gets<3
âItâs the one oat milk latte I made.â - oat milk!!!
then darts looks over her shoulder like sheâs making an under the table deal - i love them and their schemes so much
Fak running by you to steal a coffee off your tray. - heâs so funny aidjeiri
âCollectorâs item...â You nod / âThatâs what I fuckinâ said!â - donât think i forgot about this. i actually have not moved on from this moment
You pivot your shoulder for him to throw it over, hands too busy. / He throws it over your shoulder. - THEYâRE SO!!!!!
âOh, fuck, missed your twists, Chip.â - heâs sođđđŤśđźđ
âFuckinâ terrible, Carm.â - the way mikey would say this oh OH
Why it shot water straight at my titsâ Close your eyes - i know he looked away but like đđđ
removing your walls have completely shattered his. - yo this is so cute??
we must remember, I love Syd. - we must remember that is her gf
âYou canât take yourself?â âBitch?â - LMFAOOO
âLike⌠an hour?â âIt had been 23 minutes.â - Lakskfkfirorikr remember when we had ALL the comedy
âYouâre doing a good job, Carmy.â - đĽšđĽšđĽš i miss them so much
Youâre considering a career in stand up exclusively for him because it feels like such a reward to hear it. - *evaporates*
âIâd say yeah, probably not ready for a relationshipâ - he is with the right person (please please please)
oh! i almost forgot but what is chipâs coffee order? i was thinking it seems plain based on the writing (her offering to swap if he didnât like her fancier take) but i could also see her fucking with some syrups
âI know youâre a Michelin star fuckinâ big deal but like, me personally, I canât name a thing I got perfect the first time I did it.â - i see how similar she and mikey is now, i really do. carmy youâre in love with your brother - well a mix of your brother and yourself
The Berf shall prevail. - aSJHDHEBSBA ONION
For a Bear, she sure knows how to poke one. - YOUR WRITING!!! mwah mwah mwah
âThereâs something about a handywoman that Fak cannot match.â - real
She chuckles, slightly. There is something about you that feels familiar. - *clutches chest*
reading the old chapters now is so!!! like knowing the back story and how certain things are panning out (at least for now) just makes it even more enjoyable to read and to catch all your lil hints. you smartass.



Had to answer one last thing before bed (GUESS WHO DIDNâT FINISH THE DRAFT FUCK!!! But Iâm like,,, like closing in,, i think,,, I do hate this last scene so far I think I have to barf out all the nonsense and pull back. Pray for me)
You think you would love to read my drafts but if you did you would findâ Well actually, here, hereâs a list of just some of the edits/beats I wrote for Something to Do.Â
Should I be sharing my behind the scenes secrets? Probably not but eh itâs fine. Something to Do had I think the most edits out of any chapter. NONE OF THAT MATTERS THOUGH BABY WEâRE TALKING ABOUT CHAPTER 2 I JUST WANTED TO MAKE YOU AWARE THAT MY DRAFTS ARE,, , BAD.Â
Anyways. The circles are fucking CIRCLING. I love(d) injecting world moments like that that werenât all that relevant in the moment but LATER youâre like OH YEAAHHH THAT THING FROM EARLIER!! Chekovâs table carving.Â
100% Iâm describing a set, I honestly did just assume every career is like working on a setâ You all not in film also wanna die at your jobs but if you werenât youâd explode, right? Right? I made the right career choice? Right?Â
Also NEW NICKNAMESâ I donât love Onion but it seems it has been chosen. And I must live with my fate. Could do Caramel? No oneâs gonna do caramel. On my main I am salt, so you could do Salt but I do not imagine this will catch on.Â
Sheâs a fucking LIAR!!! This I think was the one full lie I ever let Tony tell. Everything else is pretty much true or of omission but this one yes, she just stopped fuckinâ payin it. Dadâs a business man!! Of course he wouldnât just cut the cordâ You liar pants Tony!!!
100% canon every time the camera cuts on squidink you can assume they kissed in between scenes. Canon i said it!!
This chapter is so telling to re-read, because you can really tell how disjointed Chip feels, without Mikey hereâ To me, at least. Like, the friendship she has/had with Richie is so barely present with him in this chapterâ And she THINKS theyâre not close!!! Bitch!!! Itâs been you two the whole time!!! I love seeing how much this changed, by Ad Interim. Our baby got her groove back. And you can see it w/ Tina too! I love my motherâŚ. Boots the houseâŚ. Sheâs so very good at seeing people now, I love HER!!!
BABYBOY TIME!!! Cutest interaction in the whole series you say?? Yeah thatâs probably true. I was gonna say I gotta try to one up myself but to be fair thereâs something about introductions that canât be matched. Alas. Perchance (you canât just sayâ).
100% this was Tony being the guy per usual but I also think like, sheâs real special cause she knows Carmen pretty well through word of mouthâ To her they are kinda like old friends. And I think thatâs also what contributes so well to her COMPLETELY DISARMING HIS ASS as he gets to know her back lmao.
That plate was so fucking close to being frisbeeâdâ It was gonna be this whole tragic mirroring scene to a scene I had considered with Mikey but pivoted because it just ,,,, did not hit. That plate sure wouldâve hit the fuckin wall though yesssiirrrrâ (I have much to say about the Youâre Nothing, but I will get into that in a later ask down the line I SWEAR THEREâS A WHOLE THING!!)
Anyways, favourite barista !!! I love that Chip has essentially learned every trade by wanting to impress someone. Her dad, Syd, Mikey. Sheâs so people pleaser. Number 1 people pleaser, my beloved. And then she makes Carmen arguably one of the best coffees!! Immediately trying to impress him after 2 fucking seconds. Sheâs so fucking dumb. I love her. She is me and I am her.Â
I would actually love to hear ad nauseam why The Berf shirt is so unforgettable. Actually no I get it. Itâs them. This whole moment is just very them. You can see their friendship start to finally peek out and itâs a real joy.Â
âFuckinâ terrible, Carm.â - the way mikey would say this oh OH
AND THE CROWD HISSES IN PAIN!!!! Yessir, yessirrrrrrrrâ She is SO THE GUY SHE IS SO MIKEY!!! THE FRUITS OF MY LABOUR!!
Weâll come back to this sweetness and comedy eventually. Maybeee. We got some in Something to Doâ theyâll be FINE!!
Now Chipâs coffee orderâ This honestly went unwritten for so long for a couple reasons. 1 - I rarely drink coffee so I suck at having opinions. 2 - Tony is really just an OC at this point but it is still technically insert, so like, whatever YOUR coffee is, is herâs.
But like⌠now? Between u and me? And the 3 other people that will actually bother to read this ask? I think sheâd do a cortado. Half steamed milk, Half espresso. Itâs simple so itâs very switchable but I think still very her, yknow?
100% She is just a blend of Mikey and Carmen. HEY HALF MILK HALF ESPRESSO!!!! LETS GO!!! ITâS A METAPHOR NOW FUCK YEAH!!! Now is she a blend of them because I deeply relate to both brothers and really just fuckin stuck my whole self into Tony? âŚ. .i decline to speak at this time
THE BERF!! SHALL!! PREVAIL!!! I need to buy a Berf shirt. Maybe I will use my ko-fi money (i love u) to buy a Berf shirt. Collectorâs item.Â
The whole Nat scene is SUCH A TOUGH READ AFTER TWO STEPS BACK HONESTLY,,, THEY BOTH HANDLE GRIEF IN SUCH DIFFERENT WAYS AND ITâS SUHKFJSFKH FUCK!!! And Natalie just seeing Mikey in her, like fucking everyone doesâ Itâs just soâ Iâm fuckin DYING!!
Also. Iâm so glad tumblr blurs ask photos because I remembered looking at these and then I forgot what they were and then i got to look with fresh eyes again and have a giggle all over again. THE MIRRORJEGâ (processing an emotion)Iâll include these in a comp eventually, but here are some from my collection. Meme exchange, only fair.
I LOVE YOU AS ALWAYS KISS KISS I AM NOT GONNA GET TO SHOWER TONIGHT IâM GONNA HAVE TO GO TO WORK WITH AN OILY SCALP AND ITâS YOUR (my) FAULT!!
