#3 girl dads and 3 boy dads. balance lol

[inanthesis]

happy fathers day to all the dads on my roster 🙌

[junicult]

!! the bachelors as fathers

contains ; sfw! sooo much fluff. fem!farmer. unnamed child. established relationships — marriage. your child is implied to be around kindergarten age. men that are good w kids hehehe. not proofread / slightly rushed in some parts. i’ll edit it later LOL.

note ; i get asks on this topic at least twice a week. i’m finally caving. here’s my birthday gift to you <3

harvey.

- he was honestly made to be a father.

- despite his taller stature, there was something about him that felt so comforting.

- if a child had walked up to him all alone, sobbing with snot down their nose, he didn’t hesitate to kneel and help them find their parent.

- soothing them, grabbing their hand and asking questions to calm them down.

- no, it wasn’t a daily occurrence but it’s definitely happened to him a couple times. and each and every time he was able to help them relax, and easily reunited them with whomever their guardian was.

- he’s good with kids. always has been.

- he probably even had a babysitting job every now and then when he was younger.

- there’s was no doubt in his mind that he wanted to have his own when he grew up. and when you just so happened to stumble into his life, marrying him with the same ideals…well.

- you obviously knew he wanted kids before you got married.

- and when you realized you wanted him to be the father of your child; was another one of those instances where you got to see just how good he was with them.

- hearing how sweet he’s always been to vincent during his doctor visits, especially when the boy was younger.

- he’s a girl dad. say what you will, but he is.

- he’ll sit at the unbelievably tiny table, cramped in the tiny chair with his knees up to his chest while he tips back the empty teacup and his pinky in the air.

- he’ll even wear the tiara.

- zero complaints.

- you and his daughter would literally be the most important things in the entire world to him. he’d do anything for you two.

- like…ugh. oh my god.

- sometimes you’d come home late, and you’d walk down the hall to hear his gentle voice animatedly in your daughters dark bedroom.

- and you’d peek in, and there he was sitting at the end of her bed, quietly reading while she sleepily listens all tucked in.

- or even times when you’d wake up in the middle of the night to an empty bed, confused.

- so you’d walk out to go find him, having no clue where the hell he was so you check your daughters bedroom,

- and well, there he is. long ass limbs tucked and haphazardly strewn about to make room for your daughter who lays next to him sleeping peacefully in her toddler bed.

- he’s not asleep (obviously), but he lays with his eyes closed until you gently creak the floorboard.

- “she had a nightmare.” is all he says, and it’s enough to make you smile.

- even though he’s already so health conscious…it only grows after you have a child.

- “did you brush your teeth? make sure to get the gums.” “a balanced breakfast is the perfect way to start the day!” he sounds like a elementary classroom poster.

- the minute someone in the house sniffles…he’s checking everyone’s temperature.

- during the winter, he’s at the door wrapping your daughter in multiple puffy coats, scarves, earmuffs, gloves, before letting her step outside.

- you’re not off the hook either, but you never bundle up the way he wishes you would.

- “why doesn’t mommy have to wear this?” she pouts while he’s helping her in her thick boots.

- “why don’t you ask her that?😊” (he’s instigating.)

- i’m telling you, girl dad.

sam.

- his own kids weren’t on his radar when you guys first started dating.

- but he’s always liked them. especially when vincent was born.

- he was that lowkey irresponsible but very responsible older brother.

- like, he’d be in his teens telling his very impressionable younger brother to say bad words and then would act shocked when he got in trouble for saying them.

- but when it came to being the oldest man in the house while their dad was away, he really showed maturity in helping jodi and being there for them.

- and while you both established a committed relationship, that one day you’d want to be married and have kids—he idealized it a bit more.

- but then again, it was still one of those things you both needed to really think and talk about before you even acted on it, especially since you got married young.

- lol i feel like jodi or marnie forced u guys to watch jas and vincent for a weekend once.

- and after how well it went, that was kinda when it clicked that you guys were ready.

- he’s both a girl dad and a boy dad.

- he’d literally jump for joy for either outcomes. he was just excited to finally be a dad after years of daydreaming of it.

- as much as i don’t wanna say it, i still feel like he’d be much better at the fun stuff then the parenting stuff.

- i just think it’s bc he thinks with his heart more then his head, and when his child is sad and pouting, he’s too sympathetic to hold his ground.

- he wouldn’t leave it all for you to do, but he’d definitely be worse at scolding if you aren’t by his side.

- like, she colored all over the walls or something. his initial reaction would be to freak out and find a way to clean it before you’d find out (he doesn’t wanna add more work to your busy day), but then he’d scold.

- “no, don’t do that. wall, bad. paper, good. understand? nod if you understand,” …well he’s trying.

- then you’d come home to see him scrubbing the walls while your child blissfully doodles in her coloring book on the floor beside him.

- if he had a son, he’d have a little bit of practice from those few years where he babysat vince.

- lol, there’s a lot of features your son would inherit between the two of you.

- but personality wise…your son is definitely a mini-sam.

- and imagine one day, it’s the early stages of spring so sam’s typical allergies start to act up.

- you’ve always known how to handle him when he gets really sick. but picture your red-nosed, leaky-eyed husband standing behind you while you rummage through the medicine cabinet,

- and all of a sudden you hear a familiar sniffle from down the hall.

- you just freeze, slowly turning to face sam who’s making the same face that you are. until he starts to laugh.

- yeah. so now here you are, both of your boys snuggled in bed with the same sickly look, mumbling about how grateful they are that you’re there to care for them.

- and here’s the thing. if your son is sam’s mini-me…then i can assure you you’re stuck with two of the clingiest boys by your side.

shane.

- he never really thought he’d get a loving, happy family of his own.

- but he definitely daydreamed of it in times when he really just wanted an escape.

- he was always the best with jas.

- he doesn’t necessarily treat her like his daughter. but it’s not like she gives him any reason to.

- he doesn’t treat her like a child, per say. just kind of like another person. probably bc of their trauma bond lol

- he cares for her like an older brother cares for his little sister.

- so even though he has jas in his life, someone he cares for so strongly, he still doesn’t think of himself as being a good father.

- when he met you though, and you were so reassuring and sweet, that thought definitely changed.

- it went from him seeing a life alone, to pondering a family of his own.

- when he finally had the motivation to clean himself up, it approached a couple years since he’s been sober and it was definitely in the forefront of his mind to start a family with you.

- i also think of him as a girl dad. i can’t picture him as a boy dad at all not even gonna lie 😭

- like he’d be the kind of dad that would dress as the supporting character in your daughter’s favorite movie for halloween (spirits eve wtvr)

- also the kind of dad that’d join in on tea parties as well, just with the most plain look on his face despite him not minding being there.

- also…let me tell you there would be a whole inside joke swear jar thing in ur house.

- when your daughter was old enough to decipher what words were “good” and “bad,” the swear jar became very important.

- i think it started when you were pregnant.

- “ah fuck, i think i cooked this wrong. damnit.” he’d mumble.

- “we should probably stop saying those before the baby comes.” you hum, and he looks at you all confused.

- “saying what?” bc they’re in his daily vocabulary to the point where he forgets they’re “inappropriate.”

- so there came the swear jar. and every now and then it’d be a little inside joke when he swore, you’d look at him like, “drop a dollar in the jar😁”

- and when you’d say one, he was so petty matching your exact tone and smile.

- your daughter just grew up with it. it became an even bigger inside joke when you were all sitting at the kitchen table one night, he leans in to take a bite of food and, “shit! that’s hot.”

- before you even said anything your daughter smiles exactly like you would, “that’s a dollar in the swear jar, daddy.”

- ur both STUNNED. and also very proud in a sense.

- you just burst out laughing while he tries to think of a counter, but really, he’s too amused to even say anything back (thus drops a dollar in the jar!)

- 😓😓he’d be the sweetest when it came to his daughter all sad about something.

- no matter what it was. even if she as much as scrapes her knee, he would be so affectionate.

- he’s not the “walk it off” kind of dad.

- if she came to him sobbing, he’d immediately calm her down by picking her up and propping her on the couch, searching for the stuff you use for wounds in the cabinets.

- “it’s okay, you’re okay. it was just a little scrape, you won’t even feel it tomorrow.”

- and he’s wiping her tears, pressing a kiss to her forehead before going into the freezer and getting her ice cream (before dinner😨) saying, “don’t tell mommy, okay?”

- although you try finish up work early enough to tuck your daughter in bed, sometimes you end up running late.

- so uh…shane sometimes forgets to put her to bed, and of course she’s not gonna say anything!!! bedtime is a child’s worst nightmare!

- and usually when that happens, you’d end up coming home to the sight of the two of them, knocked out sharing the same blanket on the couch, cuddled up together while the tv’s still on.

- and when that happens, well, you find it a little hard to take that sight away.

sebastian.

- girl dad. sorry i just had to start with it.

- maybe i could see him with a son, but honestly…no i can’t.

- but i’m not gonna lie to you,

- for a while i feel like he didn’t want kids. not really at least.

- he’d think about them and it was always a nice idea, until he really thought about it and all the mess that babies come with lol.

- plus at the point in his life when you two met, he just wasn’t ready. for a while at least.

- when you talked about it, the topic of children was only on the table. you knew you wanted them, just not yet.

- it took a good handful of years before you actively started trying.

- even though he was prepared during your pregnancy, i feel like it didn’t hit him he was a father until after ur baby was born.

- he fell in love. swear.

- like…that tiny, wrinkly little lump was his. he helped make that. and not only was it his but it was also the woman he loves’.

- it took him a while to get into the system of it all when it came to caring for the baby. i’m talking changing diapers, feeding, burping, things like that.

- but when he was left alone with her, he was kinda in his own little world. he could hold her all day and never get tired.

- and that was a concept so crazy to him bc he didn’t get that kind of love from a father growing up.

- which is exactly why i feel like he’d actually be such a great dad.

- he could be stern when he needed to be, but never strict.

- “eat your greens,” kinda dad LMAO. especially if you were the one to make them.

- when she’d come up to him with the messiest doodle of your little family on a piece of paper, he’d think of it as a masterpiece.

- he’s not very expressive tho LOL like he’d look at the drawing and only smile, a little “thank you,” in a sweet tone.

- that’s just how he is lol. on the inside he’s sobbing.

- it would always end up on the fridge.

- he spends a lot of time at home.

- which results in a lot of time he spends with your daughter, even while he’s doing his own thing on his computer working.

- but nearly every day he was greeted with a, “daddy, can we go somewhere? what’s mommy doing?” and depending on where you were, he’d help get her shoes on and take her out on a walk to go find you.

- she got her outdoorsy side from you, that’s for sure. but because she needs a guardian, he’s gotten much more used to being outside.

- it was often you’d be working on your crops outside, wiping sweat from your forehead & turn around to your daughter eagerly wanting to help.

- now, this is not to say that your relationship w sebastian was poor before you had your daughter, i’m not saying that at all,

- but because of her adventurous personality, and clinginess to the both of you—your bond grew even more.

- “she wanted to see you.” he’d sheepishly smile, leaning to press a kiss to your forehead while you both turn and watch her feed the chickens.

- “didn’t you have that website to finish?”

- “…okay i wanted to see you too.”

alex.

- absolutely wanted a family. holy shit there’s zero doubt in my mind.

- he’s kinda wanted a more traditional household, probably based on the ideals he grew up with.

- but he absolutely didn’t mind you being the breadwinner. he honestly enjoyed it much more.

- he’d spend hours daydreaming about living on the farm with you. carrying one child on his shoulders and holding the other’s hand while guiding them around the town’s fair.

- and lowkey, i feel like one of his favorite topics of conversation was discussing how your children would be raised lol

- talking in bed at night like, “i think our son would be a gridball fan. maybe even grow up to be a player himself.” while he sighs longingly.

- which also ties into me believe he’s a boy dad. you know he is.

- i definitely feel like he’d have a boy and a girl. it’s his dream.

- he’d be fine with two boys or two girls but when he daydreamed about his future, it was always you, your son & your daughter.

- it’s just once again the traditional picture of a household and even though i don’t really think he’s that old fashioned after he met you, i still believe he’d want 2 kids.

- he would seriously daydream it all the time. the months of your pregnancy, when you found out it was a boy he really saw his future fitting like a puzzle piece.

- after a couple years, your son (who may i add was literally his mini-me) got a bit older, you both discussed it was time for another.

- and when you found out it was a girl…god. i definitely think he cried, disagree all you want.

- he’s such a caring dad. i believe he wants the best for his children, and he knows what it was like to be neglected so i can never imagine him being like that.

- first of all, you already know every single day of the summer he’s bringing them down to the beach.

- packing a bag, (that takes him halfway through the day before he realized he forgot towels) propping up beach chairs & an umbrella for shade.

- he’s never opposed to a good sand castle. especially when he remembers to bring the little molds that help with the foundation.

- kneels in the shallow end, standing close to his kids when they want to swim.

- and he’s always a fan of recapping it with you at the end of the day.

- “tell mommy what you found at the beach,” he ushers, bouncing your daughter on his hip while your son eagerly begins.

- i feel like after having children, not only is he a good dad, but he becomes an even better husband to you.

- he just loves how hard you work for him and your family, so you can bet on mother’s day, or your birthday, he’ll be all about making it special for you.

- all of them wake up earlier then you, making breakfast (well, watching him make breakfast) before they put it all on a plate and deliver it to you in bed.

- ur the kind of parents that other parents are jealous of, y’know?

- he’s just so in love with you, and the kids you made. it makes him love you even more.

elliott.

- he’s always wanted kids. he would find himself daydreaming, even when he was in his early twenties, about one day raising a child with the person he loves.

- when he met you was the start of his writing career.

- at that point, it was a little underwhelming, which was the perfect opportunity to get start a relationship with you.

- you were both fairly busy, but the thing about his job was he could lounge in your cottage while you were off working,

- and when you were able to spare a few minutes, you could stop in and see him.

- while your relationship progressed, you began the discussion of getting married and having children one day.

- it just so happened to be right when his career was taking off when you finally settled into your lives together.

- which postponed trying for a little while, but eventually you were able to.

- lol, i’m gonna say it;

- without a DOUBT a girl dad.

- oh my god he would daydream of having a little you running around, tuft red hair with your sweet smile.

- and with how melodramatic he is, imagine that projected onto your daughter LMAO.

- if you couldn’t find him in his typical writing room sometimes, all u had to do was walk to your daughters room where he propped up his own little desk.

- just so he could be near her.

- he also is just entranced at all times, he loves holding her, just looking at her.

- he’s extremely helpful.

- for the most part, he was always immediate to react if your newborn needed something. the second she’s cry, he was up on his feet telling you to stay put.

- he’s just very understanding with how busy you are, and he never minded spending more time with his daughter.

- if it was the middle of the night, and she needed something, he’d always shake his head to you pushing off your blankets, whispering, “i got it, my love. go back to sleep, i’m sure she’s fine.”

- especially on days where he knows you’re particularly stressed, he’s not letting you lift a finger.

- anyways, it carried on when your daughter got older, too.

- she’d walk in all, “mommy, i threw up,” & he was on his feet to help before you even registered what happened.

- he’s just always been fantastic help.

- one of his favorite things to do is read to her.

- similar to harvey, except ten times more.

- he’s acting out each part, using different voices for different characters, making a grand show of it all just to hear his daughter giggle.

- it’s become a habit every night, and since you’re typically busy most evenings, it’s often you’ll come in to find him mid-storytelling.

- even if you intend on reading to her, you always end up stopping to let him finish. he’s so entertaining with it that even you’re interested in this plot line for 2 year olds.

- he’ll never skip this routine.

- and when he kisses her goodnight, he tucks her in, pushes her hair from her forehead and bends down to plant a soft kiss.

- “goodnight, sweetheart. sweet dreams.” he always says.

- he’s gentle with you, he’s even gentler with her.

obx s4 e1 🏍️

i just watched the first episode of OUTER BANKS SEASON 4 (part one) so here are some raw thoughts & notes <33

( not proofread, literally just rambled. but hope u enjoy it & if you make it to the end - the real end - ur a real one <3 wtf was that ?? lol )

first of all, how is everyone so gorgeous in this season like thank you <33333 my babes are looking better than ever in the perfect balance between tired to the max and serving (renewed 2024). cleo is hot as fuck like always, mah john duo is looking so damn sharp and good, pope is literally king so i don't need to explain, and sarah just full on pogue life now ugh <3 and KIARA. MA'AM. i'm not a fan of kiara (sue me) but she is GLOWING this season. like, just like the girls of the cast said, they're def putting effort into their looks and boy is it working. kiara's outfits and hair through all the flashbacks and time jumps in this first episode has been heaven. and now that i've got curls i am feeling so inspired by her. and just every piece of her clothes?? the girls as a whole?? man i haven't felt this happy recently like damn. alr moving on (i'm not)

+ the emotional length & setup we got already. all that stuff with 'doesn't mean we're pogues' at the shop from jj & kie, just jj's face all along as they were dealing with the maybank property (wtf happened to luke tho am i forgetting something), his burstout after they made poguelandia 2.0 and his "home" come true, kie looking at him with the new perspective(which i surprisingly don't hate this season, he deserves it), and ofc some peak jj maybank behavior with the auction & enduro, oh god we are so back to what obx is, and we're really getting the jj focus & depth we badly wanted throughout the whole journey. i love my boy.

RAFAEL CAMERON. that man appeared on the screen and shattered my heart. such a big jump between the pogues scenes and him and i was 200% in for both of them. i announced my stance that i would not gaf if rafe and sofia broke up at the end of the season or sofia did shit to him or something (sorry) and barry was just there for him, and i still stand by it, but thank god THANK GOD he had someone to be there with him when he was doing ward's ashes. i was full on tearing my heart out crying screaming when he said those lines to his dad because oh he was the awful-est to you. and that bitterness at the race. but then sofia yelling "you got this baby" or whatever it was. Gah. pls take care of my boy. pls. am i reading a fic because he's finally got someone to love, someone who loves him.

since i didn't see wheezie, sofia, or barry at the premiere (i think) i was sort of worried, and wheezie and barry haven't shown yet (obx has the best side characters like be for real even rose has an interesting role and all the side villain-ish people haunt you forever) -- but it's only the first episode of the first part and i'm willing to have patience !! i was so angry to hear it was coming out in two parts but i'm not gonna be having much time to binge anyways so i won't complain, i'm just way too happy with what i got till now and god i'm so thankful. all that stuff with tua and kaos yeah fuck you netflix but jeez. at least i have this and heartstopper ---- no, no, no, thank motherfucking god they didn't set these on fire. ugh i'm so happy right now. okay. gonna stop talking now. GAHK. so cute so perfect so happy i can't !!!!!!!!!!

...

(seriously tho rafe pulling that move near the end of the race?? i rly didn't know who to cheer for with rafe and jj doing that. i mean for the plot i gotta stand for jayj but i love rafe. don't we all on tumblr. but honestly i love rafe for doing that. bahaha my man like-- how am i supposed to explain this but like-- yeah sucks for the pogues i was really rooting for their life but rafael cameron my man - how i love saying that name - that's my man. that's my bitch that's my spontaneous asshole.)

(oh i'm not done yet -- i'm pretty happy with how the whole story of the first episode led us back to the end of the last season. to see an at-the-time-not-understandable time skip with them in their kooky - beautiful but just kooky for some reason - outfits ;; only to finally see with the release of this season that was actually them at their low after all those stuff. but they still dressin up, like they businesspeople mannnn, i love it. i love where we're finding them for season 4. and then right back where we started with the old adventure 'i'm definitely not going in there' 'pls stop ur tales jj' 'i've been looking for you' 'afternoon, sir' vibe ?? oh god that was so good, that was something ELSE. overwhelmed overemotional to the max. GAH FUCKING POGUE LIFE FUCKING P4L WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY)

(and i fucking love the soundtrack like what is it with this season. i need a playlist asap but since i don't have spotify and can't listen to the official stuff i'll just have to make or find a list of everything in the show and add each song myself--- jesus christ i haven't even finished the one for tua))

[toomuchracket]

So many d word and dad! Thoughts in my head right now

oh a little fluffy dad!matty moment just popped into my head... baba 1 is in her second year of primary school and she facetimes matty from your phone while he's on tour. it's morning for him, but she's just home from school, all hyper because she managed to score a goal in football in p.e. against the boys in her class today lol, and she just HAS to call dad and tell him the second she gets into the house - she doesn't even wait to change out of her school uniform because she's so eager, with the exception of tugging her school tie off in a way just so reminiscent of matty that it hurts your heart. the similarities between your eldest and her dad (not always as noticeable as those between matty and his carbon-copy younger daughter) go addressed by the man himself too; after showering her with praise and congratulations and compliments about her football prowess, matty laughs at the unruliness of his baba's hair like "oh, sweetheart, look at those curls! just as messy as mine when i was your age, honestly". and baba's like "dressed like you as well today daddy! look!", and she balances the phone on the kitchen table and runs back so her little shirt and trousers are visible, striking a pose in the way only 6 year olds can before running back and giggling. matty tears up immediately like "oh, my big girl, you look so grown up. and you DO look like me, but far cooler", and he sniffles and then grins like "maybe i should wear a matching outfit to yours at work tonight. that would be fun, yeah?" - baba giggles and nods excitedly, and so matty does the whole show in a white shirt and dress trousers with a sparkly hairclip amidst his curls, an homage to his firstborn lol <3

[arabaka]

thinking thinking… thoughts… coincidentally , I was just thinking about how serizawa feels so dad coded (more specifically, strong girl dad vibes!). Obv he would be terrified like, every step of the way but I think he’d adjust pretty quickly, taking care of people comes to him pretty naturally. If you have headcanons.. I’m listening 🫣🫣

ʚ｡ﾟ☁︎｡ɞ｡ serizawa is a daddy in every sense of the word !!!!!!!! i also picture him a total girl dad <3 thinking w/ u while drinkin' juice... ah yes my headcanons

you get pregnant with triplets right away and if you've seen parks & rec, the reaction would totally be similar to ben and leslie's AHAH in short, TOTALLY PSYCHED but oh god three of them ???? he worries more than you, surprisingly but you're both a source of solace and confidence to each other so the anxiety balances out enough. you will end up having two boys and a girl, the youngest. all three born with their dad's head of hair. <333333 your daughter has his strong nose. at least, she will when she's older lol baby noses so widdle... serizawa is a doting dad through and through. takes good care of you and the babies, always making sure you all have enough... and have enough of him!!!! also cliche but i picture big serizawa completely dwarfing you daughter's tea sets when they play pretend. he definitely lets her draw all over him, put his hair in pigtails, and try makeup on him. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

[nami-moittli]

Okay, since [3] people liked my post, here’s the charts for my

Though, I will admit, I feel like the shojou influence may lessen after the first group, but oh well. It’s the drama filled romance twst AU.

So, the freshman gang is the main one, along with the only one I bothered to add text in the image itself.

These guys are also the only ones who have any real semblance of a plot going on, and I imagine if this was an actual shojou romance anime, there’d be two seasons, so dynamics get changed and two more characters (Grim and Yuu!) get added into the mix. But I haven’t made that chart yet, so I won’t talk about it unless someone asks

Anyway, Ortho would be the main character here, as she was the reason why I decided to make this AU at all lol. (Btw, she’s 16 just like everyone else here, so don’t worry about it) Epel and her are best friends and as such I decided to give him his own side plot as well!

Since I wanted Ortho and Epel to already be established as best friends, I decided to mash their hometowns closer together, and I also wanted to make them know Vil for awhile too, so Idia, Ortho, Epel, Vil & Jack have all known each other since elementary. The others they only met in HS. Why? It’s probably a really prestigious one like in canon or smth, idk

Bc of this, Epel’s been crushing on Jack since, idk, elementary? Middle school? Awhile now, that’s for sure. Ortho’s been making fun of him for not being able to confess for years now, and he finally decided to ask him out in HS, but by the planned time comes, Oops! He likes Sebek now too! Ortho is understanding, but loves to make references to cringy manga and anime that have love triangles/harems in it. That is, until she falls for both Ace and Deuce, and suddenly Epel can have payback.

There’s definitely more to this, but that’s all I feel like writing about rn for them.

Onto the next ones!

Now this description will have less in it cause I definitely think of these guys the least, but I will say that one love square ends in two couples, and the other in polyamory, so,that’s fun!

Also, to balance out the gender ratio, Jade and Floyd are Jade and Floyd, Riddle, Kalim, Azul, Jamil & Ruggie are all girls. Silver can be the token guy. Or I could change my mind and make her a girl. Idk.

I do have a bit more to say about the juniors tho!

First off, I didn’t know where to fit in Cater & Trey, so they’re kinda just in the background. Maybe Trey & Vil had smth but now Trey and Cater are dating? Idk, but they’re here!

Anyway, back to the exes, yk how I said that Vil, Jack, Idia, Ortho & Epel all knew each other? Yeah, back in middle school, Idia and Vil dated for, around a (school) year (plus summer) I wanna say? Maybe a bit less than that. But in their freshman year they broke up, leaving them not really speaking, then about two weeks later Vil and Leona started dating, so that just kinda rubbed salt in the wound for Idia and he went back to staying in his room 24/7 again. Though he does show up at school more often than his canon counterpart does, I feel. Simply bc this is supposed to be a no magic AU, so flying tablets are a bit harder to get from class to class with lmao

Anyway, after who knows how long, maybe for like 6 months or so? Vil and Leona break up. Not sure how long after that, maybe a month, little more than that? Anyway, then Leona and Malleus date for like, a week? Idk, Leo & Mal remind me of two middle school boys who hate each other, so do with that as you will lol

Second year maybe you could fit in the Trey thing but idk. Anyway, Vil & Rook have been going strong since then, and Idia’s recently gained a crush on Malleus. Shenanigans ensue

The only other thing I’ll note is that Lilia doesn’t attend school with his kids, maybe he’s a teacher? Part-time substitute? Idk, but just like in canon he’s Mal & Silver’s dad (and Sebek’s too lol) and online friends with Idia. So that’s fun!

Anyway, that’s all for now, if anyone wants to know more, feel free to ask!

10 fandoms 10 characters tag game

rules: name 10 of your favourite characters from 10 different fandoms, then tag 10 people to do the same

Thank you @courfaeriedust for tagging me!! It's been so long since I have been tagged in something like this that when I saw the post on my dash I didn't even bother to check. It took the notification for me to figure it out lol

Here we go, in no particular order:

1. Kaleidotrope (podcast). I, too, will begin here, since it's been four years and I'm still not over it. As much as it pains me, I think I will pick Drew, but mostly because I resonate with him so goddamn much. One of the running themes of this list will be trauma.

2. Call Me Katie (web series). Bates, it's obviously Bates, it could never be anyone other than Bates. My disaster bi, the boy who helped me start to realize I'm queer, with his dumbass puns, his neediness, his obsession with vlogging and pizza... I could go on forever.

3. The Adventure Zone - Balance (podcast). Hoo boy. How do I... Magnus? Or Lup? I'm gonna go with Magnus, if only because he is the one who never fails to make me cry. Travis (and Griffin) does such beautiful things with this character and role plays BRILLIANTLY. well, they all do. gosh jeez this is hard

4. Lord of the Rings (books, movies). Never mind, this is super easy. Samwise Gamgee. Next fucking question.

5. Rusty Quill Gaming Podcast. AHHHHHGGGGDKEKXJDI Zolf or Sasha???? At this very moment Sasha. She just-- I just-- my stabbing girl. My damaged, stabbing girl.

6. Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus (book serieses). (These are the two in the verse I've read so far.) It feels like a cop out, but I think Percy. It was between him and Annabeth, and I absolutely love their dynamic, whether it's before or after dating. But Percy is so smart and capable in certain ways and so utterly stupid in others (I have a theory that both he and Annabeth take hits to their mental stats when they are within thirty feet of one another). He's loyal to a fault, he's obsessed with blue food, he fought the god of war at 12 and won, he dove into Tartarus rather than be separated from his girlfriend/best friend again, he even has ADHD. Truly the character of all time.

7. Avatar: The Last Airbender (TV show). Zuko. I love the whole gaang but his character is done so beautifully and complexly. Like that is how you do a redemption arc, people. From the very beginning. And you do not make it easy for this sixteen year old who has committed war crimes, no you don't.

8. The Hunger Games (book series). Peeta. I live that he is optimistic, kind, and principled, but not naive, oblivious, or weak. His flaws are the same as his strengths: he's self sacrificing, self effacing, loyal. Everyone rubs Katniss's nose in the fact that he's good except him. But also, he's not perfect, and there's a lot of complexity tied to the fact that everyone thinks he's better than Katniss in every way, but he's mostly just better at hiding the darker parts of him. I love that we see nothing but the darkest parts and he's able to come back.

9. Dames and Dragons/LegendLark - first campaign (podcast). Fran. Again, I adore everyone, including NPCs, but I have such a soft spot for her. Noel plays her so beautifully and isn't afraid to make her jarring, make her part of the inner conflict of the team. I love how she's grown, and I'm excited and scared to see how the show wraps up.

10. Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV show). This is tough, because some people's characterization varies so wildly sometimes, but... Giles. I'm going with my sexy dad who cares so fucking much about his adopted child(ren).

I had a lot of trouble with this list, because I've been in fandom since I knew what it was. I picked things that I still enjoy, and also things that I still enjoy talking about/analyzing. Because that's how I show love.

PIKACHU, I CHOOSE YOU: @all-chickens-are-trans @chaotic-gay-is-my-alignment @sonseulsoleil @yeahdefnot @greatestvoyageinhistoryofplastic @rovermcfly @the-vaudevillain @anywhoozles @wire-smith @cantdance anyone who wants to! Sorry if I tagged anyone who's been tagged already, I was doing this on mobile and couldn't be bothered to check

[safyresky]

I ENDED UP CALLING MY MOM AND I GOT SOME T E A (a follow up to this post)

Obligatory out of context Jacqueline to preface the vent:

another oldie but goodie, lmao

SO I GAVE INTO THE FEELING IN MY BONES AND CALLED MY MOM

"hey mom, im feelin a lil low bc MIL is mad about the car and is giving Richard crap--"

"oh girl I KNOW I got the lecture too"

I was like UM. HELLO?? GIRL D I S H

so she DISHED and y'all. when my MIL went over last week for a help with technology (bc she is very bad with even the most basic of shit), she APPARENTLY went on the same rant with my MOM, who did NOT appreciate it as my Mom is A) very excited and happy that I got a new car, bc, y'know, now I can go places SAFELY and B) she is of the opinion that it is 100% MY CAR. Which isn't wrong! This was to replace MY car, not Richard's; we just went together and co-signed bc I was more than happy to share it in name (and he was too bc cheaper rates lol). "I didn't want to tell you bc, you know, Richard is ALWAYS with you," says my mom, to which I reply

"JANE it is A-OKAY bc she's giving him SHIT for it too and he's ready to explode about it, they are NOT of the same mind"

It's hard to talk turkey about Richard and his mum with my mom bc back in HS when we met he was v much a Momma's boy, but then, as most people do, he grew up and, as some people do, went away for school and learnt oh god, my mom's kinda toxic??? and emotionally incestuous sometimes??? and does NOT treat me WELL??? and has been working VEYR HARD in the last. 8 or so years. to draw up boundaries with her and such, and this has only increased post-marriage and post me starting therapy a couple of years back as well.

But my Mom does not recognize that, and trying to explain it to her is, frankly, exhausting. So I do what I can to defend his cute lil ass and get on with the point, which is what I did today, but that's not the cruz of the matter here

THE CRUX IS THE TEA!

WHICH IS THAT. MY MIL'S RANT TO MY MOM INCLUDED THE JUICY, JUICY DETAIL OF "you know, why didn't they talk to ME about this decision, I could've helped them get a CHEAP CAR and save MONEY"

Well, Margie. Margie. Sweetie. My darling darling MIL.

1. RICHARD AND I ARE MARRIED IT IS ME AND HIM NOT ME AND HIM AND YOU, AND THIS WAS AN US DECISION, WITH OUR FINANCES, AND OUR TRAVEL/WORK-LIFE BALANCE/MENTAL HEALTH/SAFETY ISSUE.

2. IT ORIGINATED OUT OF ME REPLACING MY CAR; NOT RICHARD REPLACING HIS. AND THAT IS WHY. YOU WERE NOT CONSULTED, BC THE PEOPLE WHO NEEDED TO BE CONSULTED--ME AND RICHARD AND MY DAD (whomst is Fitzy's proper owner) WERE CONSULTED! AND WE TOOK CARE OF IT OURSELVES!

3. WHY WOULD I CONSULT YOU ABOUT A DECISION THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE YOU? AH!

So, there was some interesting stuff I immediately told Richard who replied to my four option plan with a "Well I tried B, and we seem to be going back to C, so I am now going to focus on D" and like, GOOD! YOU DON'T NEED HER OPINION!

ALSO

MY GOD! I DO NOT WANT A CHEAPER CAR. I WANT A GOOD CAR THAT IS RELIABLE AND ISN'T GOING TO BREAK IN ~5 YEARS! AND IF IT DOES, GUESS WHAT? BC IT'S NEWER AND ACQUIRED THROUGH A DEALER, IT'LL BE UNDER A WARRANTY! I DON'T WANT TO GET A LESS SHITTY CAR TO REPLACE MY SHITTY CAR, I WOULD RATHER GET A NEWER ONE THAT I KNOW IS GOING TO LAST A HOT MINUTE! THE LAST 2 HONDAS MY FAM HAS HAD HAVE LASTED 16 YEARS! 16 YEARS! WITH CANADIAN WINTERS! MY GOD! THAT'S IMPRESSIVE AS FUCK AND I LOVE THAT RELIABILITY! AHHHH

So YEAH it's been a DAY and like, I was under the impression that it was ME and RICHARD who were married, not me and him AND MIL! AHHHHH

anyway, I felt better after chatting with my mom, even if she didn't really get it, bc A) TEA and B) she's up at the Falls with my aunts rn and at one point on the phone this happened:

My aunt in the background: JANE. JANE. GIVE ME THE PHONE GIVE ME THE. DANIELLA. DANIELLA CAN YOU HEAR ME

Me: yeah

Aunt: LISTEN, I DON'T KNOW WHY YOUR MIL IS MAD AT YOU, AND IT'S CERTAINLY NONE OF MY BUSINESS, BUT I AM GOING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT I TRULY BELIEVE GRANDPA WOULD'VE TOLD YOU. FOR HOW TO DEAL WITH THIS SITUATION. WHAT TO SAY TO HER

Me: okay...

Aunt: HE HAD A SPECIAL PHRASE, ALRIGHT? NOW, DON'T GET ME WRONG. HE LOVED HIS MOTHER IN LAW. BUT WHEN SHE GOT TO BE TOO MUCH, HE'D TURN TO HER AND SAY, "comes merda"

Me, RECOGNIZING the Portuguese immediately and having to recalculate: DO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME MY GRANDFATHER WOULD WANT ME TO TELL MY MIL TO EAT SHIT

My Aunt, without missing a beat: YES

My Mom was laughing soo hard in the background my aunt had to hold the phone for a hot minute lmao.

[cowbi-dandy]

1. I'd say so with my mum, but not my dad

2. My loving trans partner, whom I say it to everyday

3. Not finishing uni, self inflicted pressure was too much

4. Not overly, sometimes I worry about my belly. But I know I enjoyed the food, and I usually feel comfortable in my body

5. Happily dating ❤️

6. In a comfy bed, with loved ones around me

7. Chocolate Brazil nuts. The best snack

8. I did practice boxing. Helped lose a lot of weight in my teens and got me a better form than B A L L

9. I used to a lot, but I would hurt my fingers with how low they'd go. So usually just enjoy clipping them, but sometimes with bite them to groom.

10. Hard to recall, maybe my brother?

11. I genuinely like a lot of people ☺️

12. Not 48, but I have stayed up 26 hours I think. Not a great time and led to some regrets lol

13. Other than some figures around the world that are doing genuine evil, like Israel figure heads, trump etc. No one in my personal life that I just don't associate with any more

14. I think I miss people that are still alive but I just don't see much anymore. I always think the dead hang around, or come visit at times, so they never feel like they've left

15. I have a bunny rabbit, Bobby, but my mum and sister take care of him more than I do now. Really enjoyed watching horror movies with him.

16. ATM feel a bit melancholic, I think the previous questions were mostly sad lol

17. Nope

18. A little cause they can be fast moving guys, but other than that I don't fear them. I love the guys and galls with all the eyes.

19. Probably not, cause I'd waste the opportunity asking what the rules and consequences were more like. Back to the future or gravity falls

20. Proper English slang there, unless it's used somewhere else lol

In a little forest path, but it's not as twee as you might think

21. Well it's Christmas weekend, not got work. Might try to see if I can get some DND in on the Saturday. But plan on enjoying time with family.

22. Still considering but I think I'd just want 1

23. Nope, but my ear apparently always looked like they had been pierced

24. History, it's factual English, and you can do debates from the facts you know and what can be derived from them. And debates aren't opposing all the time, usually it's to help further an understanding on a topic

25. Feels similar to the other question, so I refer to my answer there

26. Hot sloppy sex. Only half joking, probably warm hot chocolate.

27. I think I have, I used to be an absolute cock to girls kinda dumping love on them and then when they seemed interested I took that as a win then I'd pretty much ignore them. Absolute twat little pre teen me, but very undeveloped socially and puberty did werid stuff.

28. Far as I'm aware no

29. I think I have, both kinds of tears. Relationships are hard, but always worth it.

30. The chair in my room has a bad wheel so it slightly off balance as times.

31. Lots of people, and lots more that I don't know I hope lol

32. I love too many colours, but black and other dark colours are cool. Until it's dark and I'm looking for my phone against black bedding with black pillows.

33. Not anymore I don't think, I feel like I put a wary amount of trust and then give more as I know them.

34. Hard to say, barely remember my dreams. I think I dreamt about apex??? I remember ziplines and being a trio or something

35. Probably my mum and Step dad

36. I wouldn't say too easily, very generously, but I know the point where people don't deserve them. Until they make some new effort

37. I can genuinely forget things too easily, forgiving I don't think I take too long with.. I can't hold strong negative emotions for longer than a week even though I tried lol

38. Probably not and I hope it isn't in retrospect

39. I think like 4, had a little girlfriend. I do think the straight narrative is pushed a little hard. But then I was kissing boys for a laugh cause I could pick them up and do it lol

Maybe we really don't change much from when we were kids

40. Yes in my back garden late night, and it's pretty covered. Usually cause it too hot, but other reasons too lol

41/51? Lol

I'd say chili dogs, has everything good on it

42. I know there's the random factor in the universe, but some things do just come together.

43. Blowing a load

44. I think people can be complex, so I don't like the simple question. There can be a lot to this

45. I think I'm a nice person, but I feel I can be cruel at times. never been told I'm mean or anything though. At least recently

46. Well lots of play fighting, and boxing. Probably 30-40? Maybe

47. I don't, but I think you can always find people that can fit that role.

48. Warmish rain lol

49. Yes, it's a nice weather to get from time to time

50/60?. I really do

51. Not overly, but I like to see the people that do

52. Too many things lol

53. Maybe if I wanted to transition, but I don't think I want that. I don't think I'm an egg, I think it's just cause boys like girls and girls like boys, was ingrained into me, when I wanted girls stuff I thought I had to be a girl. So when I wanted boys, well more accurately men. I had that thought to myself.

54. Probably not, but I don't know where they are now lol

55. Well I'm happy in my current relationship with my best friend

56. I guess my partner, but other than them not really

57. Probably my mum, or co-workers, or customers lol actual conversation other than family, my friends Alice and mell.

58. 59. 60. Yes, my loving partner

Some Disenchanted thoughts (spoilers!!):

Amy Adams has RANGE y’all. She was fabulous

The fact that Giselle, Morgan, Robert, and Tyson all got to be the heroes, there wasn’t just one person who swept in an did it all themselves was just… *chef’s kiss*

Idina Menzel 😍

There was a great balance of magic and real life stuff in a way that was different enough to make it unique from the original but also honor what sets Enchanted apart as a movie

The costume department popped off, y’all

Robert being head over heels for Giselle and being a really good dad is just very soothing to watch lol. And the part where he saved the little girl whose family was identical to his 😭 poetic cinema

Peep James Monroe Iglehart! I got so excited when I heard his voice 😂

Yep I just love everything about this film lol. I don’t think it was better than the original but I don’t think it needs to be, either. It was special in its own way and I’m going to be talking about it forever 😂❤️

Unattainable Part XII ( Eddie X Theater Girl)

A/N: I rewrote this a few times. To be fair, my brain is all over the place. I need a Joseph Quinn hug lol Anyway, I THINK I have one more chapter left (maybe 2) with this one. Ugh! It's going to kill me. I love them so much.

Warnings: Definitely trauma filled when it comes to Theater Girls parents. Lots of arguing and her dad being a douche. Her anxieties do make a cameo in this one but Eddie's got her <3. Protective Eddie abound in this one!

Word Count: 2968

“Hey, kids.”, Wayne greets us as we enter the trailer; he and my father rising to their feet. Almost on impulse, Eddie took a step in front me acting as a barrier. My dad looked him up and down with a stare loaded with contempt. 

Wayne gestures towards me. “Um, your dad said he came down here to check on you but no one answered the door at your house so he came here.”

“Yeah, Wayne here tells me you guys had gone on a trip alone.” The tone of his voice gets sour at the last word. 

“We took a tour of the school I got accepted to in New York.”, I respond, my own voice shaky. It’s not that I’m afraid of my dad. Sure, he can have a temper but he never lashed out at me like my mother. That doesn’t mean he still couldn’t hurt me with his words or his actions. 

Eddie remained silent but I could tell from his posture he was prepared to defend me if need be. Wayne cleared his throat, startling me. Neither of the other men moved an inch. “Eddie, why don’t you get the young lady’s stuff from your van so she can head out with her dad here.”

“No way in hell.”

“Excuse me?” My father took a determined stride forward and to his, and even my, surprise Eddie did the same.

“I don’t trust you. You left her here to deal with everything by herself. You have no idea what she’s been through.”

“And you do?!”

“Edward!”, Wayne shouts practically shaking the trailer. His face and tone soften as he turns toward me. “You know you are welcome here if you don’t feel safe.”

“It’s ok. I’m ok.” My voice comes out small and I see Eddie’s shoulders deflate in defeat. He turns around without looking at me, slamming open the front door to head for his van. 

Closing my eyes, I try to keep my emotions in check. I listen to Wayne as he speaks to my dad. “Daniel, you may have some idea in your head as to the kind of boy my nephew is. I assure you he is nothing like his father. He’s a good kid and good man for your daughter.”

My eyes open when I hear the sound of footsteps coming towards me. “Yeah well, that’s for me to decide.”

When we head outside, Eddie is standing by my dad’s rental with my things. The car unlocks and he opens it placing the bags in the backseat. He comes around to the passenger side to open the door for me and I fling my body into his, wrapping my arms around him. To my dismay, his arms stay by his sides. 

Welcome home.

I reach up to cup his face in my hands, forcing him to look at me. “No. Don’t go back to that place, Eddie. I need you here with me, ok?” His jaw clicks as it tightens, his eyes now fully meeting mine. Balancing on my toes, I place a kiss on his lips. He flashes me a small smile as his finger pushs my hair behind my ear. 

My father huffs air through his nose. “You know what? Maybe Wayne is right. I don’t know the boy. Why don’t you come over for dinner later, huh? What do you say, Munson?”

Eddie turns and glares at him. “I’ll be there.”

My heart breaks as he stares helplessly as we get in the car and drive away. 

####################################

My dad looks around hesitantly as we enter the house. He hasn’t been here since the night he left. 

“So, uh, where is your mother?”

“I’m not sure. She said she’d be out late.”

“Can you call her to see if she’s willing to come home early?”

My eyebrows furrow at his question. “She doesn’t know you’re here?”

“Not exactly. I flew down here as quickly as I could after our last talk.”

I leaned against the back of the couch, crossing my arms. “Wow. Quickly, huh? Only a little over a month. Must be a new record.”

He sarcastically laughs in my direction as he folds his own arms. “You sound just like your mother. Or did you learn that from the Munson kid?”

“Eddie.”

“What was that?”, he snaps.

“His name is Eddie. Not the Munson kid or freak. Eddie.” I scowl at him. “And no. Believe it or not I learned how to stand up for myself on my own.”

He walks over to the phone and brings it to me. “Just call Abigail and get her here.”

#######################

My mother was extremely upset when I told her what was happening. An hour after I phoned her, she barged into the house ready for a fight. 

Preparing for the worst, I had changed into my jeans and one of Eddie’s shirts I stole from his closet. I packed a small bag and hid it near the door knowing that depending on how things went tonight, Eddie would insist I leave with him and I wasn’t prepared to deny him. When my parents are talking to each other, let alone in the same room, it’s complete and utter chaos. 

“So, you’re telling me that not only did you just show up unannounced and welcome yourself back into my house but now I’m expected to cook four people dinner?”

“We can order something. Abby, I’m surprised you haven’t done this already. What do you know about this kid? I mean his father is in jail for Christ’s sake.”

“I’m not sure why you even care. You didn’t even know she had a boyfriend until I told you.”

I was already overwhelmed. I knew this was the beginning of what would be a long evening. My parents watched me as I exited the front door to go outside. The air felt cool against my skin. I laid in the grass, staring up into the sky.

Soon none of this will matter. Soon we will be far away from here and we will be happy. This is just a good reminder of what you are leaving behind. 

No matter where you go, you’re taking it all with you. You can’t run from this.

“Is there a particular reason you are laying on the dirty ass ground, my lady?” Eddie’s voice pulls me from my thoughts as I smile up at him. “And excuse me, is that my shirt?!”

We both laugh and he casually lays down beside me placing his hands behind his head. “Why ARE you out here?”

“I couldn’t take any more in there.” I sigh as I turn my face to meet his. “I know how you feel now. When you say you don’t like the way they talk to me. I’ve been used to it for so long I didn’t think about it…until I heard my dad talk to you and about you. It makes me angry.”

He reaches and intertwines his fingers in mine. “I can take it though. All I care about it what you think of me.” He sits up on his elbow and kisses my forehead down to my lips. The taste of cigarette is stronger than usual on his tongue. “We’re going to be ok tonight. Remember, you’re safe with me.”

“My knight in shining armor.”

#################################

My dad ordered a pizza because my mom refused to cook for him. 

“I’m not obligated to do shit like that for you anymore.”

When it got here and the table was set, everyone sat around it, awkwardly staring at the plates in front of them. 

“So, no one is going to eat then? Fine. More for me.” My dad leans over, grabbing the large box, and placing a couple of slices on his plate. “God, it’s been so long since I’ve had Indiana pizza. In California they try and fancy it up. It’s so odd—”

“Daniel, can you get to point? Honestly, no one cares and, speaking for myself, I don’t want you hear any longer than you have to be.” My mother interrupts him and his eyes narrow in on her. 

“Fine.” He tosses the pizza aggressively back on the table and wipes his hands before placing them under his chin. “Let’s get to it then. Edward!” Eddie looks at my father and I can see that his own protective wall is up, preparing for anything. “I don’t like the idea of you with my daughter.”

“Dad. You said you wanted to invite him over to get to know him.”

“I know what I said!”

“Shocking. Danny says one thing but means another.” My mother takes a sip from her glass. 

“Why?” Eddie’s tone is completely controlled. 

My dad’s angry gaze shifts from my mother back to him. “I know. I know people like you. I grew up here to and yes, I knew your parents. Especially your father. If I wanted my kid to be with some future jailcell bound trailer trash—”

“Dad!”

He points his boney index finger in my direction. “Don’t interrupt me. I’m TIRED of people interrupting me!”

“Don’t talk to her like that.” Eddie’s voice sounded like he was still in control but his eyes flashed with warning. “I know I’m not the best guy in the world and yeah, I may be some trailer trash freak but I love your daughter. Even though I know she accepts me for who I am I still want to be better so I can give her the life she deserves.” 

I watch him speak with wide, admire filled eyes. Growing up I always felt like everyone was looking out for themselves. I had to take care of me after my world came crashing down. Eddie was the first person I met who actually cared about what I wanted. 

“And deserves way better than what you both have put her through.”

My mother looks down in shame as my dad immediately comes to the defensive, rising to his feet. “You don’t know anything!”

Eddie stands up as well. “I know what it’s like to have your father abandon you and a mom who doesn’t care!”

“I didn’t abandon my family. Your father is in prison. I can see and visit my daughter anytime I want.”

“Then why don’t you?!”

His question startled my father into silence. I closed my eyes, trying to control my breath. I could feel myself wanting to hyperventilate and Eddie saw it to. He sat back down beside me and pulled my hair out of my face.

“Is that how you feel?” My dad asks me. “Do you feel abandoned? Like I don’t want to see you?”

When I open my eyes, they are met with my mom’s tear-filled stare. She quickly looks away, taking another sip from the vodka in her glass. 

“How else am I supposed to feel? You left us in the middle of the night and run off across the country to be with your new family. Since then, I rarely even see you. Your wife has something coming up or Susie needs a new thing or something going on with the baby. I’m your daughter to.” The tears start to feel and I don’t try to hold them back. “How could you leave us like that? How could you leave me?”

“Honey, I…” He paused, taking a deep breath before continuing. “Your mom and I; we started dating when we were really young to. We thought we loved each other and we tried to make it work but… I just couldn’t bring you. I needed to find my own way and figure out who I was. I don’t want you to experience the same thing. I don’t want you to blink and then suddenly it’s ten years later and you’re stuck in a dingey trailer in a small-town taking care of a family by yourself.”

I laughed. I couldn’t help it. The ridiculousness of what he was saying was just so absurd. I felt Eddie’s palm touch the back of my hair. “You know, I think I understand you a bit more now.” He says with a small smile. Grabbing his face with my hands, I pull him in for a kiss. His smile grows as he reaches up with his thumbs to wipe the tears from face. 

Eddie turns to my mom. “You got it from here?”

“Yeah. I can handle him. Did it before either of you were born.” She places her cup down and stands up as we rise from the table. 

“Wait. What the fuck is happening?” My dad’s face in painted with a bewildered expression. 

I grab my little bag by the door and without missing a beat Eddie takes it from me, slinging it over his shoulder.

“Have a great flight back to California, Dad. Maybe now that you supposedly figured out who you are you’ll have better luck with your other two daughters.” 

As we open the door to head to Eddie’s van my dad reaches for my arm to pull me back. Eddie was quicker, spinning me around, and out of the way. “Not a good idea.” My father straightens up to square with Eddie but I can tell in his eyes he’s done. He genuinely does just want to get out of this town and head back home. 

“It’s funny that you’re so afraid of me hurting her yet you break her heart every day. I wish you two could understand how amazing she is. She’s changed my life in just a few months. You guys had her for her whole life and this is what you decided to do with it?” Eddie shakes his head in disappointment. Taking my hand in his, we head for his van, and drive off into the night.

###########

“Eddie, stop the car.”

“What? Why? What’s wrong?” He glances between me and the road.

“Just pull over, please!”

The van screeches to a halt on the side of the road as Eddie pulls over. “What is it? Are you ok?”

I unbuckle my seat belt and climb across the small area into his lap, pulling his mouth to mine. His hands slide up to grip my face bring me closer to him as I grind my hips against him. 

“Now. Need you. Please.”, I whimper between kisses. He unbuckles his own seatbelt and lifts my up, pushing me between the seats to the back of his van. I hastily fumble with his belt as he aggressively pulls my jeans and panties down. 

Eddie removes his lips from mine and spits into his hand, reaching between my legs to spread it into my already weeping folds. I exhale a heavy moan as his fingers glide against me. He pulls out his cock, pumping it a few times with his soaking hand, and easily inserts himself into my aching cunt. 

Pushing my hands against his chest, I roll him over onto his back. I grind against his hips as quickly as I can but for the moment it’s not hard enough. I need it harder. As if reading my mind, Eddie’s hands grip my waist, guiding me till I’m bouncing on his cock. He hits that spongey spot inside of me making me moan out his name. 

“Harder. Baby. Please.” I beg him. “Please.” 

He sits up and locks his arms around my back as he thrust up into me roughly. Wrapping my arms around his head, I cling to him, pulling him to my chest. I can hear and feel him grunting into my skin. I fall over the edge as I cum, my pussy tight and throbbing around him. Eddie slows his pace but pumps his hips hard into me as I ride myself through my orgasm. 

I lean my cheek against the top of his head as he picks up speed again chasing his own release. His arms let me go and one of his hands reaches to pull my head back. His thumb traces my face as he looks up at me with those beautiful lust blown eyes. 

He pushes me off of him and I watch as he gives his dick a few more quick pumps with his hand before his body shudders as he cums. I look around and hand him a napkin which he uses to clean himself off. I lean back against the cold metal of the van and Eddie slithers with his pants still stuck around his ankles beside me, both panting as we try catch our breath. 

He takes my hand in his. “You okay?”

I smile as I turn my head to face him. “You ask me that a lot.”

He chuckles. “You’re right. I should stop caring.”

“Yeah. I’m okay. More than okay.” I reach and move a piece of his long hair out of his face. “I’m really sorry for what he said to you. About you. I don’t think any of that stuff.”

“I know. That’s all that matters to me.” Eddie grins as he places a kiss on the back of my hand. “I’M sorry for what he said to YOU. No one should have to hear bullshit like that from one of their parents. But, um, like I said, I do understand you more and some of the things I know you tell yourself even though they are nowhere near true.”

The sound of my stomach growling echoes through the van making Eddie cackle as he grabs his own stomach. I punch his arm lightly. “Don’t laugh at me. I’m hungry! We didn’t actually eat anything.”

He leans forward and pulls up his pants crawling for the front seat. I do the same as he extends his hand to help me. “Come on, Princess. Let’s go find some sustenance!”

Gilmore Girls-Season 2-Episode 5

In 2020, I reviewed Gilmore Girls episodes on Twitter. I'm reposting them here in all of their snarky glory.

*phone rings at Luke's diner* Oh the fateful phone call. Poor Jess. What did he ever do so bad to deserve getting sent to this Connecticut hell hole? Find it weird that Jess had never been to Stars Hollow and met the Gilmores at any point in his 17 years on earth. Lorelai says "Oh your nephew" like she kind of knows he exists but then asks Luke a lot of basic questions about him she should already have known since she NEVER stops talking to him. I can't believe in her many years of being Luke's most annoying and pestering customer she's never thought to ask him any questions about his family. I suppose you could chalk this one up to Luke and his penchant for not opening up to people.

They retconned this: here he says Liz and Jimmy were married until Jess was 15, but then later we find out Jimmy left when Jess was born. The show runners were like, eh, a kid having parents who divorce when he's 15 is pretty sucky, but it's not nearly tragic enough. *scribbles out script* How about his Dad left him after he was born after saying he was going out to buy diapers, his Mom is an alcoholic who drank while she was pregnant with him and racked up 4 more husbands including one who died and who will go on to have another child that is the light of her life? That'll do nicely. "I'm sure she put at least 5 or 6 minutes of thought into (her decision to leave Jess). You're being too generous Luke. I'm observing the groceries Luke bought home. Are you trying to put your nephew into a sugar coma? Two varieties of Rice Krispie treats, a pint of ice cream, Pop Tarts Pastries. And a bottle of Vitamins for balance. "He's been staying out late. Getting rowdy." Oh no. not Getting rowdy. What did he do, get wild at a 24 Hour Barnes and Noble? Baby is a socially anxious introvert. Dictionary defines rowdy as "noisy and disorderly." He is the most pathetic excuse for a juvenile delinquent. At the end of season 3 he goes to a wild keg party and talks to no one but Rory the whole time. I watched Jack Pearson die yesterday and Jess Mariano arrive today. Milo out, Milo in. Hehehehe.

I love that "This is Hell" begins to play as he takes in the town. You don't know the half of it yet kid.

Okay, okay, slow down a little on the cigarettes kiddo, look how many are on that ashtray...errr, paper plate? This meal is CHAOS. He has what looks to me to be a bowl of walnuts and the bowl looks like a hollowed out tree trunk? Plus, some dry cereal that looks like it's on a yellow heart shaped plate? No milk or spoon. And an empty can of either beer or ginger ale. Balanced Breakfast!

"You'll like Rory. She's like Lorelai, except she has a slighty tighter grasp on reality." LOL

Boy howdy, are you two about to board a rollercoaster ride. Buckle in.

With you Jess? Anytime. Let's go.

He's drinkin a beer! Watch out! This boy is out of control! Lorelai: "Dean would NEVER drink a beer!" Okay, I made that up but I'd throw money into the ring that she says it at some point. This is probably the nicest Lorelai will ever be to Jess from here on out so I may as well enjoy this.

Okay, Jess was a prick in that scene. But I have some sympathy for him and what he's been through, at least. I don't feel quite so bad when DEAN talks to Lorelai like that. And all she does to Dean is give him a pat on the head and a cupcake.

How many times has Lorelai boycotted Luke's because something happened to make things awkward with him?

1) As always I encourage all forms of theft from Taylor and 2) I encourage any sort of theft to take away money from repairing that god damn bridge because the town is run by a bunch of idiots who wouldn't know how to budget for such a minor thing to save their lives so screw em. That god damn bridge STILL isn't fixed well into the later seasons because I started my Twitter-Review journey at the end of season 5, and I remember fundraisers were still going on for it afterwards! Fuck the Stars Hollow Bridge!

I guess Liz also neglected Jess to the point that she never bought him new clothes when he had a growth spurt. I'm saying that sweater is TITE. I am convinced after this episode the wardrobe dept realized Milo was way too buff to look 17 years old and that was the end of the tights sweaters. Nothing but baggy clothes and big ugly coats from here on out. The only thing better than Jess is the banter between Jess and Luke. I absolutely buy that Jess is Luke's nephew. Perfect character. Perfect casting. Perfect chemistry between the two actors. But he's nothing like either of his "parents" though so go figure. Would have made more sense to cast him as Luke's son. I don't believe that Middle of Nowhere Stars Hell-ow would have anyone who could recite The Pledge in 6 different languages. That sounds wayyy more like a Chilton thing. I also don't think someone like Jess who likely went to diverse schools in New York City would think it was unsuual or something to complain about.

The bridge looks fine to me. What is The Bridge Repair Fund a front for, Taylor? "Nowhere in either Stars Hollow or it's surrounding counties can you get a decent cup of coffee." If you look closely, you may spot this can in Luke's in a few early episodes (in later episodes, it's a red plastic carton of Folgers coffee with the label peeled off). If you're not American, let me fill you in: Hills Brothers and Folgers are both dirt cheap brands of coffee you can find in Walmart or literally any other supermarket in the country. Head on down to the Stars Hollow Walmart, Lor. $7.84 for this can. I looked it up.

Lorelai is then seen pouring coffee into her machine from a small white bag that is probably way fancier than anything Luke serves. Also, Idk the first thing about coffee but do you really keep it in the fridge?

She's a FRAUD! And Luke's a FRAUD for serving supermarket coffee and acting like it's his special blend!

I noticed he stole a gnome, not a yacht.

How bad can he be? He does MAGIC TRICKS! Cammmonn.

If I were Rory, Dean would have been deleted from my memory at this point. Dean WHO?

[iwonderifthatisart]

Vee!! I saw Top Gun 2 yesterday and would love to hear your thoughts 😍😍

OKAY OMG. you probably weren’t expecting this much stuff, but you gave me a chance to talk about it so here goes.

first off, spoilers for top gun maverick, be warned.

So. lol. I'll preface this by saying that my thoughts on this absolutely arent objective in any way... i waited 3 (t h r e e) whole years for this movie to come out and honestly up until i was sitting in the movie theater i still thought they would push it out again, didnt feel real lmao

now a few of my thoughts, in no particular order:

i arrive at the cinema. i sit down. the lights go out. i lean over to my friend. i whisper: i hope they play Danger Zone. they HAVE to. my friend agrees. the movie starts, and lo and behold, the first notes of Danger Zone reach my ears. My crops are watered, my skin is clear. i look to my friend, we nod at each other. we turn back to the screen. we understand. we know this’ll be good.

Thought 1 flows neatly into Thought 2, which is that they knew exactly what kind of movie they were making. like, the main target audience for this movie were Dads™ and they hit the right balance between making it attractive in terms of nostalgia vs. new stuff. i think i saw a letterboxd review that phrased it like "having references to the original without being distracting" and that’s exactly what i felt like (see re: the Danger Zone example). And also: iconic homoerotic beach volleyball scene set to the tune of "playing with the boys"? turned into fun football scene on the beach set to New Music From Today (which was good, but the whole scene could've been gayer imo.)

sure. it's basically military propaganda, i know, we all know, it is known. It still looks cool as hell, i love people flying planes and say smart stuff and click a lot of buttons that look very complex and professional

AND that opening was so perfectly maverick i love it. he just HAD to push a little further

it was SO FUNNY at times! there were sincere (and at times cheesy) parts, but there were a few really funny moments that worked really well

rly liked all the new young pilots, though i expected them to focus a little more on them? but tbh it worked as it is, i didnt really felt like too much was missing (again, maybe a lil homoeroticism but you cant have everything)

Listen. Jennifer Connelly. Penny. Her character was... well. I liked her! But also. Well, she was a lil two dimensional, but idk? Or maybe its bc she was the love interest of Tom Cruise, who i really cant imagine in any kind of romantic relationship, no matter what movie he's in. I didnt really expect too much and i felt like it was done alright. it was solid.

(also... i kinda dont like tom cruise as a person, mainly bc of the whole scientology thing, but lets not get into that here. no negativity in this ask)

ofc ICEMAN!! RIP my man. Obviously wished he was in the movie more but *waves at the real life complications with Val Kilmer* still though, mav and ice texted throughout the movie and it was. so gay. like, i've read fanfiction that might have had these exact messages in them lmao

also. the whole thing about ice and mav? like we all expected there to be more of a rivalry, but they're just out here texting and chilling with each other. good for them.

"it was a nice moment, dont ruin it" lmao.

phoenix...loved her :) my girl :) also loved that they didn’t make a big deal out of ~oh shes a woman among men~ and she has to be the Strong Female Character, because that just falls flat 90% of the time

when they explained the mission to maverick and mentioned that there are still a few f14 tomcats there i was like *cocks checkovs gun* that'll come in handy later! and it did and i loved it!!

the scene where they had to fly the route in 2 mins 30 seconds and everybody’s like “thats impossible” and maverick is like “hold my beer” and does it in 2:15 and yeah i’m LIVING for that shit! call me a basic bitch i dont care!!

maverick and goose vs. maverick and rooster. we love cinematic paralles in this house

“talk to me dad” CRYING IN THE CLUB RIGHT NOW

so yeah. theres probably a lot more but i didnt want this to get so long slfksjlks.

i know its not a perfect movie, it has it’s flaws, but i enjoyed it so much! there were a lot of scenes and tropes that could’ve easily been super cliche but i thought they worked really well. or maybe i'm just biased.

please!! enlighten me with your own hot takes if you feel like it. id love to hear them <3

burnout pt. 1 - max verstappen

summary: a quick drink at the hotel bar with a stranger….

a/n: a small piece of this came to me in a dream and the rest was inspired by the burnout album by anarbor

pt 1/? - not sure how many but I have 3 written already

not smut …. yet lol

warnings: not much tbh, alcohol, making out, some may call this fluff?

The hotel bar was the ideal place for your sister and you to spend your evening. You were in town for a wedding last weekend but decided to stay for the week to relax and recharge, this time without your extended familiar breathing down your neck.

“I’ll take another martini please,” your sister asked the bartender, pointing to her almost-empty glass.

“I’ll have one of those as well.” You added.

Your sister looked confused. “You? Drinking?” You weren’t usually one to drink but one martini wouldn’t hurt. You were on vacation anyway and work would be right where you left it when you returned at the end of the weekend.

“I mean, happy Friday.” You laughed.

“Everyday is Friday when it’s vacation,” your sister replied. You nodded in agreement with her. Her phone began to buzz on the bar between the two of you.

“Oh, shit. I gotta take this.” Her boyfriend was calling. She grabbed her phone and walked away from the bar towards the entrance of the hotel.

“Two Lemondrops,” the bartender said, setting down two martini glasses filled with a beautiful yellow color.

You smiled and thanked the bartender. It may have been too early for drinks, but that didn’t matter. It was exactly what you needed.

Work had gotten extremely hectic at home and you needed a week to recharge your batteries.

The first sip of the martini was bitter and tart, but eventually mellowed out. You puckered your lips. The bartender looked at you confused. “Don’t like it?” He asked.

“I do,” you laughed. “I’m just not a huge drinker. I usually go for wine if I do.”

The bar was relatively empty, so you were taken back when the seat next to you became occupied. “I’ll have whatever she’s having,” the man said. You turned to look at him and admired his chiseled cheekbones quickly before he turned to smile at you.

“You can honestly just have this one,” you said, pointing to your right at your sisters full drink and empty seat. “My sister ordered it but then her boyfriend called. They’re going through some stuff so I wouldn’t expect her back any time soon.”

You picked up the glass along with the cocktail napkin it sat on and placed it in front of the stranger.

“That’s really nice of you, thank you…” he slowed, waiting for you to fill in your name. You gave him your name with a smile and asked his.

“I’m Max. Great to meet you.” He takes a sip of the martini and makes the same face you did at the first taste of the liquor.

You laughed at him. “What’s so funny?” He looked confused.

“I reacted the same way.”

“Not a huge drinker either?” He asked. You shook your head. “I usually can’t because of my job, but I’m off this weekend, thankfully.”

“I’ve just never been a big fan. What do you do for work?” You took another sip of your drink, trying to get it down. Each sip was less awful than the last.

“I drive cars.” You looked at his outfit, fully decked out in Red Bull Racing merchandise from head to toe.

“Ah, I see. That seems like any little boy’s dream job. You must love it.”

“It was my dream job, so you’re right about that. My dad was a driver as well so it’s all I ever knew.” He was finishing the drink at double the speed you were. “How about you?”

“I’m an engineer,” you smiled. You always felt a sense of pride telling people you were an engineer.

“No shit, that’s so badass.” The exact reaction you wanted. “I’m surrounded by engineers on a regular basis at the track. None of them as beautiful as you, though.”

You could feel your cheeks heat up, a combination of Max’s compliment and the alcohol starting to hit your body.

“That’s sweet of you to say. I’ve been in engineering long enough to know that they’re probably all men so at least I know you’re not lying to me.” You let out a soft giggle.

“I would offer you to come work with me but it would be unethical for me to crush on my engineer.” He winked and immediately turned back to the bartender, motioning for another round for both you and him. “You better finish that one up because there’s another one coming.”

You looked down at the half empty martini glass and shrugged. “I’ll get there.”

You peeked out the sliding glass doors of the hotel entry and saw your sister still deep in conversation. It wasn’t long until you and Max had finished three drinks together.

His company was pleasant and unlike anyone you’ve ever spent time with. He was witty, smart, and sweet.

“Before we get even drunker than we are now, do you want to go watch the sunset on the roof? I heard it’s beautiful up there.” He asked you.

“I would love that.” You smiled. You were ready to ask the bartender for the check before Max beat you to it and put all the drinks on his, including an extra for your sister for whenever she got off the phone. You asked the bartender to let your sister know where you went when he returned and he agreed.

The two of you made your way towards the elevators. As the doors opened, you went right to the wall and leaned up against it, making sure you were balanced. Max conveniently stood right next to you and curled his arm around your shoulder, pulling you into his body. He looked down at you, a significant distance between your faces due to your short stature. “I had a lot of fun with you tonight.” He said.

“Me as well. It’s almost felt like a breath of fresh air.” He smiled at your response. You could definitely agree with Max. The two of you got on so well and there was never a moment of doubt or awkwardness in your conversation.

You looked up into his eyes as he closed his, moving closer to you and pressing his lips to yours. Immediately, your hand found those cheekbones you had been admiring earlier as you kissed him back.

Your lips moved together in sync for a few more seconds before he pulled away. “I’m sorry if that was too forward-“ you stopped him.

“Not at all,” you grinned and he leaned in once again, wanting to taste you again.

You both tasted citrusy and sweet from the drinks you had consumed. His tall figure towered over you and you felt safe with his arm around your shoulder.

He pulled away again, letting his tongue glide against his bottom lip. “I’ve been thinking about doing that for the last few hours.”

“Well, I’m really glad you did.” It seemed that the what you had been feeling for Max these last few hours was mutual.

The elevator dinged and you stepped out onto the stone-floored rooftop, practically empty.

You admired the beautiful city skyline and cotton candy colors of the sky.

“Wow,” you said in awe. Your jaw hung open as you stared out. Max’s gaze was directed right at you. Nothing better than watching a beautiful girl admire something she loves. He had no idea you loved sunsets, but he took a wild guess and was wildly right. Must not be a coincidence, you thought.

You were snapped out of your admiration by a dinging sound coming from your phone. A text came through, and you read what was on your Lock Screen. “Hey babe. Hope you had a great week. Can’t wait to see you when you get home. Love you!”

dad!ushijima hc

before we start can we get a moment of silence for me who was actually going to cry thinking of dad!toshi

okay n e ways

his first child is his little girl aka princess ushi aka the reason he lost no simp September

the first time he saw his baby ushi he shed a few tears and no one believed you when you said that your giant, 6’2, straight face husband cried at the sight of your daughter

when baby ushi first game home she was so smol and tiny that she could basically fit in the palm of his hands and he was so gentle with her like everytime you think of it you want to cry

100% depends on you for instructions because he’s so scared he’ll hurt his princess or do something wrong

you’ll be breastfeeding her or smth and he’ll just be sitting there next to you two and observing until you ask him to go get you a paper towel which he’ll do right away and then resume watching you guys

it’s kinda of cute how concentrated he is watching you and his baby girl interact because wow that man is in his own world

Ushijima would be the type to let your baby do whatever she wants to him so you would catch her literally climbing on top of him whenever he would watch her and letting her bite him and pull on his hair

tbh you feel kind of bad for him but the scene is just so adorable that maybe you’ll let him suffer for a little bit more

besides he doesn’t look like he’s suffering that much with the way he’s not doing anything about it

even though you spend most of the day time with baby ushi due to the fact that Ushijima has volleyball practice, she will not sleep unless papa ushi is the one putting her to sleep and until she is in her deep sleep she will always be holding on to her daddy

baby toshi will be the most spoiled baby there is because not only will Ushijima buy her everything she wants, all her uncles from Shiratorizawa and the Adlers will buy her a shit ton of toys and clothes too

Ushijima sometimes just impulsively buys stuff he sees on ads or if something catches his eyes at the store for her if he thinks she’ll like it

will carry her on his shoulders all the time when she’s a little bit older and her head’s not so big that she’ll lose her balance then she’s up there and fall 6 feet to the ground

the first time you ever leave her alone with him because you had an emergency at home, you can’t tell if they’re going to have a really good weekend or if your husband is going to have a mental breakdown

he makes sure that he asks all the questions he can before you leave and makes sure to write them down somewhere just in case but as soon as you give him and baby their goodbye kisses and he’s left standing there with baby ushi, his mind goes blank for a little

it’s just him and the baby staring at each other for a while until baby makes grabby hands at his face

honestly he does fine when he snaps out of it and remembers everything you tell him and he knows he has Romero to call if anything else comes up

him and princess ushi just vibe for the weekend aka she does whatever she wants and toshi is just her butler and she ends up never letting go of him the whole time

throughout this weekend he finds out that he’s good at doing housework with one hand and holding baby ushi with the other

lol he probably tries one of those baby snacks (like the puff cereal) and is like ‘wow these are actually pretty good’ and when he goes for another one baby toshi just kinda makes angry sounds at him for stealing her snacks and he deadass apologizes with his head down and everything

eventually he’ll want a second child pretty soon because he grew up an only child and it was pretty lonely and he wants baby ushi to grow up with the best home life possible (something he didn’t exactly get)

and ta da you make baby #2 aka his best boy and his exact copy

princess ushi is like 3 so she’s still pretty young and honestly it’s kinda hard to take care of the both of them at once since they’re closer in age but you guys manage

ushijima now lets the both of them sleep on his chest during nap time whenever he’s not at practice and honestly there’s so much room on his chest, it’s like the best bed/pillows

he likes taking littlest ushi to walks on the park when you and princess ushi are having girl time

littlest ushi always wants to be carried by papa ushi whenever they’re at the park and he’ll cry if Ushijima puts him in a stroller so Ushijima just carries him around the park and back and it’s honestly quiet with the occasional babble on their walks since littlest ushi is mostly quiet unlike his sister

princess toshi loves her little brother a lot like she would always walk up to his crib when he was a new born and turn to you and Ushijima and say “baby” all excitedly

she “watches” her brother to the best of her ability and by that I mean she talks to him while he lays there and babbles back and it’s honestly so cute

lol sometimes she rubs his bald newborn head and giggles at the missing hair and runs up to her dad to ask him ‘why baby have no hair’

after a long day of watching the kids, practicing, etc. Ushijima just likes pulling you in his arms and giving you plenty of kisses all over your face saying how much he loves and appreciates you and that he’s so thankful that you’ve given him his bundles of joy

wow this is kinda long idk might do a part two later lol

[unknownwriting]

Summary: childhood friends to lovers with the asl trio hc (modern au!)

Characters: Sabo, Portgas D. Ace, Monkey D. Luffy

Notes: Uhhh...I didn’t just write more Sabo and Ace. 🙈 omg I really can’t get enough of these 2. Lol it was hard to write Luffy but I tried my best 😌

━━☆⌒*.

Sabo

Definitely love at first sight. When he first saw you, he wasn’t sure why, but he loves you. Maybe it the way you smiled, or laughed, or your playful eyes. Whatever it was, Sabo has always like you since you were kids.

now seeing how the world isnt perfect, Sabo had only barely got to know you before he was forced to move away to London (idk why London but Oda said that Sabo was British sooo....🤷🏼‍♀️ and like if you live in London or what not just don’t for the sake of the hc 😌)

Of course before he left he made sure to make a secret email so he could still email you and his brothers. Once he got his phone he did not wait to give you his number and call.

because he still lives over sea (assuming that no one reading this lives in England...) the 2 of you would call and text all the time. Text each other good morning and how y’all slept, text through the day about every little thing, and at night the 2 of you would fall asleep on the phone (I completely forgot about the time difference so just ignore it for this)

I can’t even tell you how many time you had your phone taken up and had Ace to steal it back.

even though the 2 of you couldn’t see each other in person, only being able to call and text didn’t seem to stop you 2. You still told each other everything, sent each other memes on Insta, and called when ever you got a chance.

no don’t think that just because Sabo is over seas, Ace doesn’t know about his crush on you. 100% knows about it and 100% teases you about it. You can’t really get mad at him because if it wasn’t for him you wouldn’t have realized your feelings for Sabo

but with Ace knowing about Sabo crush, he made sure to keep other boys away just because he can. Sabo really didn’t ask for it but he’s still greatful anyways.

and so with any boy that has ever like you being scared away by Ace, in your senior year of highschool (Sabo is 2 years older than you so he had to wait until your senior year) Sabo fianlly came out and told you that he liked you. And surprise, surprise you like him too and as soon as those words left your lips, he dropped everything and booked the next flight. He didn’t even tell you here was flying over till he landed.

you, Ace and Luffy wasted no time and drove right to the air port. You definitely made sure to wear your running shoes because you practically sprinted to one side of the air port to the other. As soon as your eyes landed on the blonde, you jumped straight into his arms and didnt let go for a solid 10 minutes.

with sabo now home, of course y’all throw a huge party. How could you not. Literally everyone’s invited. Garp, Daran (she complains, but she happy and everyone knows it), all the straw hats, most of the whitebeard pirates, even Shanks and his crews shows up even though they hardly know Sabo. It’s just a huge party

the party could’ve gone on for days but Sabo still had to get situated. So once the party ended the 2 of you began to unpack his stuff at your house. He came over with practically nothing so it wasn’t hard. And once that’s was done, the 2 of you began to do a bunch of couple-y shit to make up for the time spent apart.

touch starve, both of you, but most Sabo. Always had to be touching you. Whether it’s holding hands, kisses on the cheek , or just hugging. He feels the need to make up for all the years he was away from you.

and you better be ready for surprise dates, like this man will not stop making you feel loved. And in all honesty you could care less about the dates, simply being with him and being able to hug him after so long is all that you need. It doesn’t take a lot for the 2 of you to feel loved at all but just let Sabo spoil you. If you don’t he’ll practically throw a fit. And plus being smothered in kisses isn’t that bad from time to time

omg I so need a fanfic like that 🤧

Portgas D. Ace

At first Ace came out cold to you, just like he did Luffy. When Ace was a child he didn’t think he deserved to be love so he contuined to stay cold but just like Luffy, you didn’t give up. You tried to make conversation and play with him and sooner or later he did come around to you.

But what really sparked his so called curiosity with you was when Sabo had told you who his dad was and you simply shrugged it off, saying, “his dad has nothing to with Ace. As far as I’m consered he’s dad’s irrelevant at this point.” It was bold for you to say but Ace liked that. From there on out there aways seemed to be a glow that followed you, like a spot light.

Ace knows everything about you, even the things you don’t know. He doesn’t do it to be creepy he just couldn’t stop thinking about you. Ace knows your favorite color that changes every 3 months, how you like your pizza, how you always sleep talk, how you have a bad habit of speaking before you think and how you bite the inside of your cheek when your nervous, and how you dig your nails into your palms when your angry

He’s know you inside out and he really doesn’t mean it in a creepy way. It’s just hard to not watch you when your caught his attention. Now all throughout elementary school and middle school he didn’t think much of it. But once he was a freshmen in highschool and you were a 7th grader, and boys began to take interest in you that’s when he finally figured out: he was in love with you

of course, he had a little help from Sabo. Sabo’s best friends with Ace, how could he not notice? He thought it would be best to let Ace figure out that unknown feeling himself, seeing how Ace’s has never once thought about it. But as soon as Ace was able to figure out his feelings, Sabo was right there ready to help him out

It wasn’t hard, really. You were right by Ace when he slowly came out of his shell thanks to Whitebeard and his crew who took Ace in. And once you saw how lively and happy he got it was hard not to fall in love with him. Now that hard part was trying get together

Thatch was the the one who ended up actually getting you 2 together with the help of Sabo and Koala. Now of course, they waited until your senior year of highschool so things weren’t weird and then the plan was set into motion.

If the 2 of you had to be honest, you don’t even remember how it happened. You 2 just started dating The plan was all over the place, so the 2 of you just decided to tell each other you like them. And then boom, the 2 of you were a couple.

So like everyone always knows this but Ace won’t care of the relationship of the other one doesn’t love back. With his past he needs to know that he is loved, so while he always spoil you in kisses and acts like he is the giver in the relationship, you know well enough that he’s a receiver. You don’t mind at all anyways, seeing the fluster look at his face, is enough for you.

But that doesn’t means he does plan surprise dates, or random gifts. The relationship you 2 have is very balanced, nothing ever feels to overbearing. And I know I say this a lot but dating Ace is the best thing to ever happen

Monkey D. Luffy

Honestly the 2 of you probably met at some random park. You don’t even know how it happened. One minute you playing on the play ground, next thing you know your walking in the woods with a random boy that was about your age.

You couldn’t really complain though, the playground was getting boring and being pulling along for an adventure wasn’t bad. While on the adventure you were able to learn, surprisingly a lot about the boy. But the big take away is that his name is Luffy, he’s got 2 bigger brothers, and is around 7, about 2 years younger than you.

Definitely ended up spending the whole day with him in the woods. Y’all did everything from climbing trees, finding rare beetles, fighting animals, and playing in the ponds. You hardly met this kid yet and yet you had more fun than any other friend you met. By the time y’all headed back it was practically nighttime and, although he probably didn’t do it internationally, Luffy ended up walking you all the way to you house.

Before you could even knock on the door, your parents swung open the door and engulfed you into a crying hug while also scolding you at the same time. They were definitely giving off mixed emotions. From there, Luffy let out a loud laugh and ran off, waving by to his new friend. From that day forwards, you seemed to always be caught up in some mess with him. Y’all would meet at the park, at school, at stores, just any place where the 2 of you could have any type of fun.

This went on for a while, the 2 of you would adventure off to the woods, until Luffy’s brothers began to ask who you were. That’s when Luffy finally decided to take you to his house. It’s not that he didn’t want to take you before it’s just that he thought it would be more fun to go other places. But once Luffy brought you to his house, Dadan, the lady you learned who was taking care of them, practically had a heart attack. Seeing anything kid was the last thing she wanted. You had to tell her like 10 times that you were just here to hang out with Luffy. 

It’s not like it mattered though, you were already with him so it was really like Dadan had to take care of you. But just like the other boys she definitely came around to like you. And of course, Ace and Sabo came around to like you. How could they not? It wasn’t everyday that a girl would hang out with them. Whether or not he wants to admit it, Sabo had a small crush on you. But it didn’t last long after seeing your relationship with Luffy.

The think about Luffy is that he’s not gonna know he has a crush or even realize it on his own. He doesn’t really care that much. He knows all about dating and love and the birds and the bees, he just doesn’t care as much. So Luffy didn’t notice his crush on you until you brought it up. And even once you brought it up, not much changed between you 2. Not because he doesn’t like you he just doesn’t see what’s the difference between being friends and dating.

You ended up telling him you liked him early on but you didn’t want to actually get into anything until high school. So you waited until sophomore year then you asked Luffy to date you. Of course he got a push from Ace and Sabo but Luffy was gonna say yes anyways. And thus, the 2 of you began dating.

Dating Luffy is kinda a challenge. He not one to pick up on the little things or signals, so most of the time you have to tell him straight forwards. Whether you want a kiss, a hug, or to go on a date. Although the 2 of you are dating, Luffy acts how he was before beacuse he doesn’t see how the relationship changed much. He doesn’t do it to hurt or upset you, it’s just how he sees it.

And although you have to tell Luffy what you want most of the time. Dating Luffy is surprisingly easy, too. Depending on what it is, Luffy could either be a challenge or not. Beacuse you have to tell Luffy everything communication is really strong between the 2 of you. The both of you also trust each other very much. Because Luffy doesn’t just build relationships with anyone. Once the relationship starts though, you can expect him to be very trustworthy and reliable. Luffy adores all the friendships he makes, so he’ll never befriend someone who he doesn’t trust.
