Lisichka
Request: Hii ! I hope it's okay to request Tartaglia and (a very shy) childhood!reader reuniting after many years and pining for one another? Reader knows him very well so they're not rlly shy around him...until they developed a crush on him. Which makes them timid and mildly awkward around him, and it really shows more and more. I had a thought of what if Tartaglia also has a crush on them around the same time? I hope this is okay and have a good one! ♡
Summary: Tartaglia returns home after fighting the narwhal. You try to avoid him, unwilling to face your crush after so many years, but he manages to meet with you anyway.
Note: Lisichka means little fox
cw: none
Word Count: 1081
Tartaglia x gn!reader
“Have you heard? Ajax is back.”
You’re walking around the local market when you catch wind of the first rumors. The speaker--one of the old women who spend every market day discussing everything from local drama to the contents of this month's delivery of various newspapers--speaks in a hushed voice.
“That’s only news, Marya. My husband has already been to Lev and Anya’s place. Ajax looked pretty beat up.”
If Marya’s question hadn’t caught your attention, the second speaker would have.
You lift your groceries and approach Marya and Elizaveta.
“Ajax is back?”
Elizaveta gives you a measuring look. “I’m surprised you didn’t know. You spent so much time with the boy before Lev sent him off to join the Fatui.”
“You mean until they started avoiding him.?”
“Yes, yes. And blushing like---”
“I’ve been helping around my grandparent’s house,” you blurt. “So no, I hadn’t heard.”
Elizaveta chuckles. “In that case, yes, Ajax has come home. You should go visit him. I’m sure you’ll make his day.”
“I’m not sure he’d remember me.”
“Nonsense. I’d put money on the opposite being true.”
You sigh and tighten your scarf around your neck. “I’ll think about it. But I still have shopping to do. Have a good day, Mrs. Marya, Mrs. Elizaveta.”
Several days later, you walk up the path to Ajax’s home, a heavily wrapped pot of soup cradled in your arms.
A boy with a shock of red hair sits on the porch with a toy ruin guard in hand.
“Good day, Teucer. Is your mother around?”
Teucer looks up and grins. “Big Brother! Y/N is here!”
“Teucer,” you groan, “I’m not here to see Ajax. In fact, please give this to your mother. Tell her Katia sends her regards and that we hope Ajax gets well soon.”
You place the soup next to Teucer and hurries back down the path.
This was such a bad idea, you think to yourself. I can’t ever keep a straight face when he’s concerned.
Ajax steps out of the house, smiling into the collar of his thick, woolen coat.
Unbeknownst to you, the young harbinger watched the entire thing.
He picks up the soup and looks down at Teucer. “Did you say thank you?”
“I didn’t have a chance,” Teucer pouts. “Why are they acting so weird?”
Tartaglia laughs. “You’ll understand when you’re older.”
A few days later, you find yourself sitting on the bank of a lake.
You keep your eyes trained on the hole you made and the line disappearing into the water.
This is the only place in town where there aren’t curious looks and questions about Ajax’s health. It’s the one place where you don;t have to be reminded that after so many years of being his friend, you’re now too cowardly to meet him face to face.
You’re so caught up in your thoughts that you don’t hear the snow crunch behind you, though the footsteps are soft enough that it could be any small animal.
“Lisichka, Lisichka. Are you done running from me?”
The familiar nickname startles you out of your reverie.
You turn, ever so slowly, to find a pair of bright blue eyes twinkling at you.
“I never ran from you.”
Ajax sits next to you. “Are you sure about that, Lisichka? I recall that before I left to join Fatui, you wouldn’t look me in the eye. And I saw you run from my house the other day.”
“I---”
“Got a bite yet?” Ajax changes the topic of conversation, much to your relief.
“No. Not yet. Though I might not, now that your pretty face is here.”
“If a pretty face is all it takes to scare off the fish, you must never catch a thing.”
You open your mind to reply, only for your brain to finally register your words and his reply.
“I--- How are you feeling, Ajax? I heard you were hurt.”
This time you’re the one to change topics, though you’re certain he’s aware that it’s a desperate attempt to keep from addressing the proverbial bear in the room.
Tartaglia holds out a hand and you frown at the clear tremor. “Fontaine was a little rough,” he admits. “I don’t recommend fighting a whale for a couple months.”
“A whale? How do you fight a whale?”
“Not easily. And I lost miserably. I don’t like Fontaine’s Iudex--though I want to fight him again one day---, but I’m not sure I’d have survived if he and the traveler hadn’t intervened.”
“You were never careful with yourself,” you comment. “Even less so after your three day disappearance.”
Ajax huffs. “This wasn’t my fault. There was a lot of weird stuff going on.”
“Uh-huh. I’m sure. You know you go looking for trouble and when you aren’t it has a habit of finding you.”
“You know me so well, my Lisichka.”
“I thought we were too old for pet names like that, Ajax.”
“Says who? You were my Lisichka when we were kids. Why can’t you be now?”
You raise your eyes to the sky, where the constellations lay hidden.
“Because if you keep using pet names like that, I’m going to get the impression that you’re not just a childhood friend.”
Ajax reaches over and cups your cheek, turning your face so that your eyes meet his. “If you did I would be awfully happy. I’ve been trying to get your attention for years.”
“You mean…”
“Silly fox, I have liked you for a while now.”
“I bet I’ve liked you longer.”
“You wanna bet?”
Tartaglia tosses your fishing rod to the side and opens his arms to you. “Will you be mine?”
You let him pull you close, brows furrowing when the movement makes him stiffen. You rest a hand on his shoulder, feeling the bandages that deform his sweater.
“Of course, but please, please be more careful.”
“I love you, Lisichka, but I can’t make that promise.”
“I know. It was worth asking.”
As you start to doze in the safety, you can’t help but ask, “Why Lisichka?”
Ajax laughs, smiling into your hair. “Because, a teenage me had no other way to flirt with his best friend and you looked so cute playing in the snow.”
You join him in laughter. “I guess you win.”
“Oh?”
“I started running from you because I realized that I wanted it to be more.”
You yawn, eyes fluttering shut.
“Sleep, Lisichka. I will be here when you wake.”

Thinking about how in Gideon's narration she employs 206 anatomical names for bones but Harrow doesn't know the difference between a hilt and a pommel. Something something cavaliers being expected to respect/understand/integrate into necromancy while necromancers are not expected to do the same for caveliership. Is this anything.
#ik that idea is supported in the text plenty elsewhere but i was just thinking about language#someone (tiktok book reader) was complaining about gtn using 'too many big words'#and 1) i dont particularly remember any big words being used? at least nothing that i had to look up.#2) the big words that are used (anatomical names for bones) are important to the text and the character.#they help establish the world and gideons place in it.#its not like muir is just stuffing her prose with 'big' words for no good reason. shes very intentional with her writing.#this is not really a dig at anyone who thought there were big words in gtn (is that the general consensus?) it just got me thinking.#tlt#gtn#htn#the locked tomb

#first + foremost; you are under no obligation to write queer content if you don't want to! you as a writer should be your primary audience.#and that in an of itself is not an issue at all.#but the 'i respect gay people but i don't support them' narrative from a christian woman is. interesting. to say the least.#i can't force somebody to change their beliefs even if i think queer people deserve more than just the human bare minimum of basic respect#but as readers i don't think we should be feeding into and/or normalising this (and on tumblr too lmao 'queerest place on the internet' lol#just because someone posts banger content (because she does have good writing!) i still think it's important to engage w it ethically.#just my 2 cents. i see a lot of mutuals repost her work in the yandere niche and i'm hoping people just didn't know.#don't support people who won't support you! :)#this means no harm to her#just letting people know in case their morals and stance on this allign with mine on this particular topic#i won't namedrop - but dokja might.

My thoughts here mainly revolve around YSA as the mary sue/female lead type character:
She goes from being this perfect woman to. just being a woman. And my idea is that the weight gain isn't there to make her "unconventionally attractive," or whatever other dumb phrase you wanna use to avoid calling someone ugly, but to make her conventionally attractive, yet realistic.
Instead of looking like a skinny waifu character, she looks like a skinny human woman. Her hair swaying in the nonexistent wind isn't as perfect, her magic blush is missing and she has eyebags. She's still hot, just more human.
#and if you look at it then the left ysa looks a lot more like her doesnt she?#congratulations if youre the exception but most folk seeing this would prefer the left#or at least feel like the left resembles ysa more#and im not saying this judgementally. 1) i draw tons of women like this and 2) they're drawings and not real life humans#(theres a time and place to discuss representation of body diversity etc but this post isn't about that rn.#its an important discussion that deserves respect and its own space. this is a 5am ramble)#anyways. ysa strays from the ideal woman. she grows to be more human in her behavior and depiction and everything#and it would be quite fun to reflect that in the way she's drawn#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#yoo sangah#my doodles#orv meta#i guess?

(part 1 here! it's not required for reading this piece, but they are connected!)
The second time you meet Izana is completely unexpected.
You hadn’t expected to see the pretty boy from the convenience store anytime soon after your first meeting; sure, he had gotten your name and you had gotten his. But besides that, there wasn’t really any way for you to find each other, and it’s not like you were the type to go around to every high school in the vicinity looking for an ‘Izana’. You just figured that you’d see him when you see him.
You definitely weren’t expecting the next time you see him to be right outside your school gates, however.
“Izana?!” The exclamation draws the boy’s attention to you, along with the attention of nearly all the students nearby. You clamp your mouth shut, face reddening at the feeling of the curious glances sent your way.
“Hey, [name].” He greets you casually, as if he didn't just completely show up out of nowhere, at the place where you least expected him to be.
“What are you doing here?” A sudden thought strikes you. “You don't…go here, do you…?”
“No. I don't go to school at all.”
A snort of laughter escapes you before you can stop it.
He sends you a sharp smirk at that, pushing himself off where he was leaning against the bars of the school gate. “I'm here to pick up a certain someone from school.”
“Oh.” Disappointment flares up inside you, but you push it down. “I see. I didn’t know you knew anyone from my school! What a coincidence.”
“...”
“...?”
You tilt your head in confusion as he stares blankly at you, gaze unreadable and unmoving. Why was he staring at you? Did you say something wrong or–
“Oh!” The realization hits you all of a sudden. Your hand flies up to point at yourself. “Did you mean me???”
He finally moves again at that, nodding his head with a wry smile on his face.
“Oh!” You feel your face heat up again. “Sorry, I don't know why I thought it was someone else.” You rub the back of your neck sheepishly. “I guess I wasn't expecting it to be me.”
He lets out a chuckle, hands smoothly swiping your school bag from your hands and slinging it over his shoulder before you can stop him. “If not you, then who?”
You roll your eyes jokingly. “I don't know, literally anybody else?”
“There's very few people that I would willingly make an effort to pick up.” He bends down slightly to your eye level, and your breath stutters a little at the sudden close up of his beautiful face. “You should consider yourself lucky.”
Recovering, you decide to play along, sending him a teasing smile. “Sure, whatever you say, pretty boy.”
His eyes narrow slightly, the corner of his lips curling upwards. “Oh? I'm ‘pretty boy’ now?”
You giggle, a little bashfully. “Can I call you that?” You ask timidly, unsure of his preference towards the nickname.
His playful expression softens into something gentle. “You can call me anything you want, [name].”
Your heart skips a beat at the soft expression on his face, eyes never leaving yours, almost as if the look was meant for you and you only.
“Now,” He straightens up, snapping you out of whatever daze he put you in. “Let’s go.” He begins walking away, your bag still in his hand, and you hurriedly chase after him.
“Wait wait wait, go where??”
“There's this café I've been wanting to go to for a while now.” He casually replies, not paying your confused look any mind. “So we're going today.”
You could feel butterflies in your stomach.
Was this…?
His way of asking you out on a date…?
You quietly study the side of his face as the two of you walk alongside each other, eyes tracing over every line and bridge of the ethereal features that had captured your attention since the first time you caught a glance. His face is relaxed, almost peaceful.
…Well, whether it was or not, you suppose it doesn't really matter at the moment.
You fake a heavy sigh, although you can't help the smile creeping onto your face. “I suppose I don't have a say in the matter now, do I?”
He grins smugly. It's surprisingly cute.
“No, not really.”
After all, time will tell.
For now, you'll just enjoy this afternoon by his side.
("Wait a minute...how did you know which school I go to?"
"..."
"I-Izana???"
"...Don't worry about it 😁."
"IZANA???")
#i like to think that he stalked the reader after their first meeting#not in a creepy stalker way just following them whenever they went out to see which places they frequent#prolly wanted to appear cool and mysterious by showing up out of nowhere#at least it worked out for him ig#izana#izana kurokawa#izana x reader#izana kurokawa x reader#tokyo revengers#tokyo revengers x reader#my writing

this scenario has been on my mind for a long while; specifically with togame or hiragi but it really could be any windbreaker man :3 totally unedited and totally not even trying to make it sound good just getting the idea off my chest !!
he doesn't really know why you broke things off; it was sudden and unexpected, things had been going good. but he wants what's best for you so he lets you go begrudgingly, and just as he's starting to move on, he spots you at a festival, or a street fair, or window shopping in town. and all that emotion comes racing back, heart pounding in his chest because you look so pretty like always. and maybe he hadn't been moving on, he just didn't realize how much he actually missed you.
and as his feet carry him closer to you against his will, his heart drops to his stomach when he finds endo and takiishi trailing after you and it's like everything stops. whatever he was in the middle of doing is an afterthought, your safety is first priority, and just as he's within reach to pull you by your arm or deck one of those nasty fucks in the jaw, you turn your head to smile at endo the way you used to smile at him. it's genuine, it's warm, your eyes are crinkling at the edges. your arm is loosely linked with takiishi's, like how you used to hold him so he wouldn't lose you in the crowd.
you don't notice him, but they sure do. two sets of eyes shoot him a warning glare, one pair filled with mirth, the other, bloodlust.
#it just fucks me up bc like. i think he'd be so fucking confused wondering how he couldve been stupid enough to lose you in the first place#and then you've gotten caught up with them of all people? worst fucking case scenario#he can't cause a scene surrounded by so many innocent people but he isn't letting them get away with you#i think even in the rare case that reader isn't being manipulated and willingly chose them he is still so fucking livid#like you left without a care in the world....did you already plan to be with them even when you were still together?#like he's so hurt. whether you're being roped into something dangerous or if it was your choice he is heartbroken#this is hashtag not written well but i've been thinking of it forever and at least it exists somewhere now#wind breaker x reader#wind breaker <3

sometimes, you wondered if the 'i love you's you had said were enough. if he understood how much you mean to them. if he truly ever heard and took them with him, tucked in a secret corner in his heart.
you wonder, if he knows that you regret not saying it more to him.
"i..." you tried to tell the empty space in front of you. a space that had come to place itself in your life in a presence that resembles a puzzle's hole more than a crack.
something should have been there and you know more than anyone what it is—who it is. yet, it remained unfilled no matter how much you wish to reverse time back to a happier time.
you wish it was all meaningless. that all these thoughts are mere hauntings built up by your own fantasies and when you blink, he will be there. maybe he could smile, maybe he could feign a cool mask, but all the same, his finger would intertwine with yours.
maybe, he would take a step closer to you, bumping your shoulder. maybe, his eyes would stray and look around, while the heat from his body remains just next to you. maybe, full of concern, full of care, he will ask you, "what's wrong?"
but, it is mere wishful thinking.
from somewhere, the strangers' footsteps resounded in the distance and he was not by your side. it would have been like a penitence, like an admittance to no one. so, in the end, you swallowed all your words down.
"i love you," you wanted to say, "i truly do."

Wait why am I actually completely captivated by the tucao commentary streamer addition to Chiyo’s character in the new nozaki-kun live action adaptation 🤔 like I don’t know if it’s a great or terrible change yet but man is it bold & intriguing and I kinda have to respect the sheer guts of starting with a frame-by-frame faithful recreation of the manga source material and then just casually tossing in this fundamental shift in both relationship dynamics & Sakura/Qiandai as a character mid-episode 😭
#the comic bang#fsc speaks#gekkan shoujo nozaki kun#the comic bang spoilers#I guess????????#anyways I’m just glad this is out it’s been 5678990 years#gsnk#honestly if well-executed this change could be good#it at least added dimension to the og realization scene & kinda more explicitly places chiyo in the industry more than ‘part of art club’#honestly also focuses the bite this character’s always had and channels it into something specific#the show also does the shoujo adaptation trick of aging them up to university & this twist actually works w that in making her more#self-actualized I think#like it almost makes sense that Sakura the 3rd year is just a general reader who’s good at a different art style#while qiandai just has a lot of opinions & thoughts on genre tropes right from the jump

ft. wakasa x afab!reader
synop + cw: wakasa and his oral fixation aka pussy drunk wakasa is the best wakasa. oral (reader receiving) and everything that may come with that
a/n: hmu if this is any good


old news but this man has THE oral fixation
so he dives in, he takes without asking. anywhere, anytime no matter what.
the gym, mostly the changing rooms otherwise he knows his friend would give him shit for it also he really is trying to be more mindful of other people but again, he has no shame when he's hungry
his house, your house, any place you can have some alone time
he makes you wet with all the shit he’s saying about eating you out
might not even be something extremely dirty but he’s so straight forward he can make you pretty flustered.
gets all frantic when he needs his mouth on you but you're wasting time talking
might pin you against the wall and just get on his knees
lift one of your legs on his shoulder to have more access, closes his eyes and the first moan he lets out is pure bliss
your legs shaking will never be enough for him to stop
or on the bed when he's on top of you, this bitch would lower his head down to kiss you and stop abruptly smirking “whoops, wrong lips”
next thing you know he has your legs on his shoulder and is worshipping your cunt
the rare times he's not in a frenzy to have his tongue make circular motion between your folds he will spread them with his fingers and smile at the sight
low breathy moan against your pussy
moves his tongue like he's starving, he is pussy drunk and he shows it
makes sure his tongue is keeping you all wet and hot
he's messy yet very precise, he knows where to lick and how much pressure will make you see stars
also will prod at your hole with his thumb and keep teasing you around your entrance with feathery touch that will make you clench around nothing (the bastard will smirk against you)
soo i bet he has some tooth rotting nicknames for you and i swear i know he would non ironically call you oreo... and you would tell him to stop calling you that
and he looks at you almost offended “not when i have your legs spread open for me and i’m about to lick your cr-” either you cover your face with the pillow or push his head against your core
endless cycle of him sucking on your clit and poking it with his tongue
overstimulates you and he doesn't even do that on purpose he just loses tracks of time (will make you cum at least three times i'm sorry but i don't make the rules, he does)
you can't even pull away cause his grip on your legs is tight, holding onto your thighs for dear life not to spiral
i wouldn't be surprised if he ended up falling asleep between your thighs
#the oreo thing is canon i know because he calls me that all the time 😔👌#wakasa smut#tokyo revengers smut#tokyo rev x reader#wakasa x reader#tokyo rev smut#𓏲 𓂃 ✒️ ❛ writing ༉‧₊#writing:// tokrev#feat:// wakasa#lil rant in the tags none will ever see bc anxiety came to visit so yea i feel SO NOT enough for this i wanna cry but wtv#i really feel like an outsider and feel like this is not my place either i rlly don't know why i can't feel welcome anywhere#i just want be at least perceived and have people i can share my interests with and love for characters#but it does always feel left out and like there's no room for me at all – i rlly care about this but idk how to do it

Obsessed with how pathetic you make Jim Guangyao look. The hat. I love it.
Don't let the smile and sweet words fool you, Jim Guangyao has lost everything in the divorce, and continues to lose.
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jin guangyao#mdzs au#modern au#this takes place in the same universe as Alan Zhan btw#I have been waiting for the day I got to meet him....Jim Guangyao.....#I think he won at least one divorce. But also did so under suspicious conditions.#you can 'win' divorce is your ex is dead right?#I like to think he wasn't even in the will and all the money and property went to another relative.#Who did he divorce? That's up to reader interpretation#Jim Guangyao is the busy dad who's never around except on the very rare occasional holiday. He cannot relate to his children#Nobody has ever seen him without his hat. In highschool it was a trilby. He's got baseball cap on in this drawing (I tried).#for casual friday.#He would burn everything at the grill. Half-bad luck and half distracted by work calls#Jim has nothing and no one. Despite this he always seems to land another hot spouse within a few months.#(Its his dimples. They are mesmerizing. You will look at them and sign this will without second thought <3)

I don't know about you, but I find shared baths deeply intimate. Mostly cause first you have to be very comfortable with the person you're bathing with and there's an intense feeling of safety that you boundaries will be respected.
Apply this to Jamil who is arguably the most paranoid man in all of TWST. Imagine he and his s/o are getting serious and Jamil is finally starting to really open up. It's also the stage where things are getting steamier, so to speak.
As both a sign of trust and a way to get used to each others naked bodies, the couple starts bathing together. The physical vulnerability of it since their both nude is further amplified since they have to wash/touch each other. That in itself requires a lot of trust.
Just imagine this: gently applying shampoo into Jamil's silky hair while he rants about his day, slowly revealing more about his past and insecurities. Then they switch and now the reader is the one opening up about their struggles while Jamil massages the soap onto their back. Kissing any scars they might have, talking about the most random things, playing with the water, and just enjoying this moment between Jamil and his beloved. Jamil is just so busy that he relishes being able to just enjoy their presence close to him.
There's also a strong desexualizing element. Jamil and the reader likely grew up with a notion that nudity is embarrassing and should only happen with a sexual partner. While this statement is technically true, they aren't in a sexual situation. They're trusting each other to respect their boundaries in such a way that the way they view each other goes from "potential sex object" to "a body that so happens to belong to my dearest".
Which further adds to my hot take of the "If evil why hot" route with OB!Jamil being pre-relationship.
Also, fun concept: washing away blot.
Imagine they're at the very end of the overblot Jamil boss fight. The phantom is defeated but there's still some blot left. So the reader pushes him into the river created by Kalim and holds him there as the water washes away the blot. When he starts calming down, they gently start rubing the blot off. Slowly trekking their fingers through his hair as the snakes dissappear. By the end they're left with an exhausted sulky wet Jamil. The reader then kisses his forehead as they wrap a towel around him.
Aww there definitely is a lot of potential for sweetness with stuff like this. I mean, having someone wash your hair, cleaning up together… It really can feel so intimate and vulnerable.
Now, I feel like I should add the caveat that I'm Finnish, so I'm fairly used to seeing other people's bodies in the sauna, for example, and the whole concept of nudity = sex is not quite so strong for me, personally. (Though personally I'm not likely to go to a mixed sauna, especially with strangers, but still.) So my perspective for the nudity aspect may be a little bit different, though I do definitely agree with these scenarios being intimate and potentially vulnerable. Like, you really do need to let your guard down to let someone see you bared like that, no hiding behind your clothes (or status) or anything else. Just, people, together.
Which definitely ties into that whole opening up for each other. We always tend to say that people are equal in the sauna, and it (perhaps surprisingly) is a good place for those deep, intimate conversations. So I can definitely see that same vibe for this bathing together, too.
Also just, the thought of squeezing into the tub together, trying to figure out how to adjust everyone's limbs and bodies so that you're both comfortable in there (and covered by water enough to actually get to enjoy it). One of you wrapping your arms around the other, holding them close, it's just… So sweet, and intimate, and also you kind of have to be “normal” about it to make it work (I don't really have the words for these vibes, just, yes it's intimate and vulnerable but at the same time you kinda just have to treat it as a normal thing if it's gonna work).
Just eugh I love this concept so much.
(Also now I'm definitely wondering how the twst guys would feel about sauna, perhaps even with the whole “run off naked to the lake to cool off a bit and then go enjoy some more heat” extra shebang.)
Oof that washing off blot, though… Oh it's going straight for my heart 😭 Just the whole I'm still here for you, I'm here taking care of you, let's wash away what happened (both literally and figuratively). Oh boy what a concept ripe for being picked apart.
(Also for some reason it's making me think of like washing off bodies for funerals, but in this particular case more in the sense of washing off the old self / what happened, something to allow rebirth or something. Or like, this could've destroyed him, but didn't. Idk, there's just so much one could do with this. Maybe it's just the talk of being washed in a river specifically that's making me think of like Lemminkäinen’s mother and all sorts of stuff.)
#twisted wonderland#jamil viper#twisted wonderland x reader#jamil viper x reader#ner talks#chatting with folks#lex752#I hope I'm making sense my thoughts are kinda all over the place right now#these are such delicious thoughts to chew over tho#(also yes that squeezing into a bath together musing is definitely from experience)#funnily enough I'm so used to having a sauna (and just a shower) that baths always seem like the exotic option#(I mean I also fall asleep in a bath in about 3 seconds so it's not exactly something that'd work for me anyway)#(at least if I'm alone I'd be too concerned of just falling asleep and sinking under the surface)

What’s the age gap between Oikawa and reader in Divine Rights?
totally up to you. i don't usually bother with specifying ages unless either one/both's age relates to the context of the fic, or to establish there's a significant age gap
#e.g. in fracture with samu#the reader's college aged he's 7 years older#he's got his life sorted in that his career's taking off n he's got his own place. kids might not have been too far off#he's established in that cool older brother/guardian role#their ages and the disparity between them matter to the context of the fic#but generally speaking you can go nuts#if you wanna read it as dilf oikawa in his 40's#that's ur perogative#you wanna run with power hungry twenty-something tooru#i am not gonna stop you#same with the reader#she's the youngest sibling#at least one of her older sisters had young children#beyond that it's a blank slate babey#rhi answers#fic asks#divine rights

thank you @counterwiddershins and @magpiefngrl for tagging me to share 9 books i want to read in 2025 - and sorry for changing the rules of the tag to suit my vicious goals😈























the last book is kj charles' next release which is gonna be called either all of us murderers or lackaday house and doesn't have a cover yet
tagging @oliviermiraarmstrongs @figuringthengsout @fugitoidkry @pinkasrenzo @fandomreferencepending @sugarbabywenkexing @weirdsociology @theodoradove @doh-rae-me @venndaai @sixappleseeds
show me what 9 or 25 or any other number of books you want to read in 2025!📚
#and tag spam ends here i promise lol#book tag#and what sort of number is that even - 9?🤨#half of my life as a reader is actually reading books and then the other half is constantly narrowing down my tbr🤦♀️#last year my list of books that i want to read in the foreseeable future was comprehensive and included 214 titles#i read at least half of them in 2024 and thought for sure next year it's gonna be much shorter than that#but i actually had to narrow down the 2025 updated list to be no more than 225 books!#my tbr is like the lernaean hydra - you read one book and three new ones pop up in its place#this top priority list was also hard to narrow down but looking at it now i'm satisfied😌#btw the hands of the emperor i'm already 25% into but i decided that i'm gonna finish it next summer bc it's a summer book
