warnings: fluff, hurt/comfort, overthinking, negative self talk

Cassie Howard was a lover girl. She loved love, she loved being loved and she loved loving others. She had been in a few relationships here and there, and she fell hard for every guy she was with. Many of those guys had just been with her for the sexual benefits that came with being in a relationship, some of them because they really liked her. Regardless of the reason, every one of those relationships ended the same way; her being broken up with.

"I'm not looking for anything serious."

"I'm not into you like that."

"I'm interested in someone else one."

"I just want to work on myself."

She'd heard every reason in the book, and they all hurt. Breakups always were painful, but having a bullshit excuse come with it made it even worse. Out of all of the excuses she'd heard, there was one that stood out the most. One that hurt more than all the rest, one that was more common for her to hear.

"You're just too clingy, it's too much."

She would rather hear anything but that. The word clingy cut her deep, it was a continuous wound that never healed regardless of who she was with. She couldn't help it, she wanted the person she was with to know she loved them and she wanted to feel that love was reciprocated. She often seeked out reassurance, none of them ever gave it. Her love ran so deep, all she wanted was that same type of love in return. Granted, she had also never been in a healthy relationship, until she met Y/n Y/l/n.

Cassie met him during her senior year a little while after her split from Chris McKay. She knew of Y/n, even if she didn't know him personally. He was a hockey player at East Highland, one of their best players. He was a senior just like her, and was relatively popular. The party— that was being hosted by someone whose name she couldn't remember— was being held at a large house with hundreds of people from their school. She and her sister Lexi arrived with their group of friends after spending hours getting ready together. She hadn't been single for this long until a while, but for once, she didn't mind. She was okay, she felt alright. She enjoyed spending the time getting ready and looking pretty for herself and not for someone else, it felt so good. Even knowing she would possibly run into McKay at the party didn't bother her or make her feel pressured to look perfect. She wanted to look perfect for herself. She was proud of herself for that.

It had been a while since her and her friends went to a party together, they were making the most out of it and living it up. Maddy and Nate just so happened to also be split up, so they weren't spending the evening clinging to their man's arms. They were dancing with their girls, laughing, and having fun.

At some point during the night, Cassie decided she wanted a drink, as anyone attending a party would. There was a bar area she had been told was set up in the middle of house, and as she made her way to said bar area, some people who were mindlessly dancing bumped into her rather aggressively. Which then sent her flying into another person, sending them to the floor. That person just so happened to Y/n Y/l/n.

"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry! Are you okay? I'm so sorry," she frantically told him, helping him up from the ground.

"No worries, I'm okay," Y/n said, rubbing the back of his head as he accepted her help up.

"I feel horrible. I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to knock you over. I was trying to get through and there were people dancing and—"

"Hey, seriously, it's alright. No need to apologize," He gave her a small smile, "I'm used to it from Hockey." He joked.

Of course, that didn't stop her from feeling bad for knocking into him. Every time she tried to apologize, he was wave her off, assuring her that it truly was alright and it was no big deal. She offered to make him a drink as a final apology, claiming she knew a special recipe she could make with the liquor that was present. He took that opportunity to make an agreement; if he accepted the drink, she would stop apologizing.

"Okay, fine. I can agree to that," Cassie chuckled, grabbing two cups and a couple of the bottles. Before she could start pouring, Y/n put a hand on her arm.

"We have to pinky swear," He grinned, holding his pinky out to her. She playfully rolled her eyes before locking her pinky with his, squeezing it slightly.

"Pinky swear." That lead to the two spending the whole night talking to one another, getting to know each other. He was such a gentleman and so kind right off the bat in a way none of the other guy's at their school were. He was also strikingly handsome, which was just an added bonus. They spent quite a lot of the night chit chatting, not realizing how long it had been until Maddy came looking for Cassie.

"There you are, come dance with me!" Maddy exclaimed, taking Cassie's hand and trying to drag her away.

"Hold on, one sec Maddy," The blonde said, motioning to the boy next to her. Maddy made an o"o" shape with her mouth before smirking at her, giving her a thumbs up and walking away.

Y/n chuckled the interaction, "Well, I better let you get back to your friends. I've kept you held up long enough," he stated.

"Yeah, I guess. It was really nice talking to you, Y/n. We'll have to talk more soon," Cassie responded, a large grin on her face.

"Yes, definitely," Y/n said before quickly grabbing his phone from his back pocket. "Would you... maybe want to give me your number? So we can keep talking more? Only if you want to, only if you're comfortable with that." His cheek flushed a light shade of pink as he waited for her response.

"Of course, I'd love that." They exchanged phone numbers before bidding their goodbyes, both smiling equally as wide.

That was just the start of their story. They quickly began texting all the time, every day. They would meet up every now and then at school, hang out after school, and before long Cassie began to develop feelings for the boy. This time, it was different. Y/n was unlike any other boy she had ever met; He was funny, kind, respectful, and cared about more than just her pretty face or body. He cared about all the little things, just as much as the big things. He knew all her favorite things, all her little habits and ticks, and he knew how to make her smile.

About two months later, Y/n decided he was going to ask the girl he had fallen so hard for to be his girlfriend. It started with him asking her in a date, to which she said yes. He had arranged a surprise dinner at her favorite restaurant and got her a big, beautiful bouquet of her favorite flowers. After dinner, he took her to his house where he decorated the finished basement with lights, flower petals, and candles. He set up a cozy movie station for them to watch her favorite movies.

During the movie, they went from sitting next to each other to Cassie snuggling into his chest. As the credits rolled, he shifted upwards causing her to look up.

"Y/n? You okay?" Cassie asked, her eyebrows furrowing together.

He took a deep breath in, preparing himself in his head. "Cass?" He said.

"Yes?"

"I need to ask you something," he kept his sentences short in order to not word vomit due to his intense nerves. Cassie sat up straight, looking him in the face as she felt her heart start to beat faster. Could this be it? Is he gonna ask what I think? She thought to herself.

"So, I'm sure you can probably tell based on me asking you on a date, but I really, really like you," he began, feeling himself blush.

"I really like you too, Y/n." She beamed, unable to hide the pure joy on her face.

"Yeah?" He asked, grinning like he'd just won an award. The girl nodded, and he inched his hand towards hers. "Will you be my girlfriend?"

"I would love to be your girlfriend, Y/n."

Just like that, they were officially boyfriend and girlfriend. Y/n swore he'd never been happier in his whole life, and he made it his mission to show her every single day. He brought her flowers on a daily basis, took her on all kinds of dates every week, made sure she knew how beautiful she was every day, and made sure make his devotion known.

In every relationship she had been in at this point, she had been spoiled, but not to this extent. Nobody had ever shown her this kind of affection, let alone kept it consistent no matter how much time passed. She had never felt so loved, and it made her fall in love with him even harder than she already was. She couldn't believe how lucky she had been to find him.

Months passed, the two were more attached at the hip than ever. At school, Y/n walked Cassie to all her classes, sat with her at lunch, and drove her to and from school. After school, she would attend all his practices and games for both sports depending on the season. He would go to all her ice skating practices, and anything she found important. They spent all their free time together, it was hard to get one away from the other. Y/n's friends made fun of him, but he always shut them down and made sure they knew not to make any comments that were anything but nice about his girl. He didn't care what they had to say, all he cared about was Cassie. He pushed her to make time for her friends as well as him, but he didn't mind not hanging out with his friends that often. None of them were as close as Cassie was to her friends.

Eventually, they met each other's parents and families. Casie invited him over for dinner and it was safe to say Suze absolutely adored Y/n. She made sure to point out the drastic change she'd seen in her daughter since he came along, she hadn't seen her that happy in a long time. Not even with McKay. When meeting Y/n's family, Cassie was invited to their annual bowling night. It was the family's thing, it was very rare for them to invite newcomers. But, Cassie was different. They gladly made the exception, and ended up all loving the girl just as much as Suze loved Y/n.

Their relationship was relatively flawless, though they definitely had their struggles every now and then. Cassie had never been in a relationship that was healthy, and had plenty of work to do to make this relationship stay that way. She had insecurities and fears she needed to stay mindful of, and Y/n was there to help her every step of the way. He reassured her, comforted her, and was very patient and supportive of her. For the most part, she learned to feel secure.

One thing Cassie hadn't learned to handle though, was her clinginess. Sometimes, she wouldn't even catch herself being clingy. Other times, her ex's voices rang in her mind telling her she was "too clingy" and "too much" nonstop. When that happened, she would begin to pull away a little bit in fear he would think the same thing as the other's did. Y/n only ever noticed a difference when she would pull away from him, which left him confused. He would try to pry and talk to her about it, and every time she would just brush it off like it was nothing. He could clearly tell it was something, but she wouldn't budge.

That was until she began acting that way in the middle of date night. It was their date night in for the month, where they typically would cook together and watch whatever show they were currently binging together. One date a month they would do this, the rest of their dates they went out and about. Cassie was usually rather cuddly and touchy with her boyfriend, she never found herself overthinking during their dates. This particular day was a Friday, and at school she heard other cheerleaders talking very loudly about her boyfriend in the locker rooms after practice.

"I can't believe Cassie and Y/n are still together," one girl said. Cassie, who was in a bathroom stall, tried her hardest to ignore them. At first, she brushed it off, until they kept going and would not shut the fuck up.

"I know right! How is he not sick of her?"

"She literally throws herself at him 24/7, it's insane."

"She is so fucking desperate, he must get so tired of it. I swear I saw him move away from her when she tried to hug him today."

"It's about time, maybe he's realizing he can someone less pathetic."

The blonde couldn't get their words out of her head, no matter how hard she tried. If other people thought that way, surely he did too, right? People she barely even talked to could sense how clingy she was, and apparently how annoyed he appeared. That right there was enough to send her into an overthinking episode, one much worse than she'd had in a while. As Y/n dished up their places, she was leaned against the counter, staring off into space as she thought it all over. She was pulled from her thoughts when her boyfriend wrapped an arm around her, telling her the food was ready. She quickly shied away from him, bidding him a thank you as she took her plate and headed towards the stairs.

"Hey, babe?" Y/n called out, his tone laced with concern. She turned around to look at him as he grabbed his own plate and began walking towards her. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," she whispered, staring at the ground and going down the stairs. The boy furrowed his eyebrows, following close behind her. They sat on the couch together with their plates in their laps, Y/n taking a seat close to his girlfriend. She scooted over the slightest bit, but wanting to appear like she was all over him. Many red flags were going off in Y/n's head, she wasn't being her usual, lovey, talkative self. Something was definitely wrong. The boy kept making advances in attempt to be close to her, just to be rejected each and every time.

After a half hour of them going back and forth, him silently trying to fix the problem, he decided to speak up. "Baby?"

"Hm?"

"What's going on with you today?" He finally asked, staring at her with a look of concern. She shifted uncomfortably under his gaze as she tried not to make eye contact.

"Nothings going on," she lied, looking everywhere but at him.

"Yes there is," he stated. "I know you like the back of my hand and you've been acting super off since after practice. Talk to me, love."

"I don't know what you're talking about," Y/n knew what she was doing; she was bullshitting him to avoid talking about the problem. If it was over something small, he would wait until she was ready to talk about it. This was different, and he wanted— no, needed to know what was wrong so he could fix it.

"You've been really quiet, which isn't like you. You haven't really let me touch you, and you haven't been touchy with me either—"

"What's so bad about that?" she cut him off, her voice just barely above a whisper.

"What? What do you mean?" Y/n asked, feeling even more confused and concerned.

"I mean I'm too clingy, anyways. And I'm too much, what's so bad about me not acting like that?" As she spoke, her eyes filled with tears. The moment Y/n noticed, he was taking her face in his hands and moving her head to face him. She still avoided his gaze as she tried to keep her tears at bay.

"Baby, look at me," she shook her head no, but that didn't stop him. "Cassie, please. I need you to look at me,"

After what felt like forever, she finally met his gaze and he swore he felt himself melt in her eyes.

“Cassie, you are not too clingy or too much.“ he told her firmly.

“But, I’m all over you all the time. It’s pathetic,” the girl scoffed as her boyfriend wiped her tears with his thumbs.

“Why would you say that, love? You’re not pathetic,” he whispered with a sad frown.

“Because it’s true, and you know it too.” She moved backwards away from his grasp before wiping at her own face with her hand.

“What?! No! I don’t think you’re pathetic baby, not at all. I would never, ever think that of you.”

“Maybe not now, but you will! They always do! I’m— I’m always too much, or I’m too clingy or desperate and everyone thinks so! Everyone always gets sick of me, just like you will because they’re all right!” Cassie cried out, letting her head fall into her hands as soft sobs escaped her lips. Y/n couldn’t believe his ears, it broke his heart right in half to hear that his girl thought so low of herself— and even more so that she thought he believed it, too.

“Woah, woah, woah. Who said that?” He was quickly moving to wrap his arms around her shoulders, being weakly shoved off. He didn’t let that stop him, and he pulled her into his chest and held her tightly as she cried. He stroked her hair and kissed her forehead, rocking her back and forth. They sat like that for who knows how long before Cassie calmed down, feeling embarassed about her outburst.

“Are you ready to talk, baby?” Y/n asked as he reached for a nearby box of tissues. Cassie nodded before blowing her nose. After that, she told him everything from all of the things her exes had said to her to what she overheard the girls saying in the locker room. He felt his heart shatter even more, all he wanted was to scoop her in his arms and love her forever. “My love, I need you to know they are all wrong. So wrong! I could never get sick of you, and I will never get sick of you or annoyed with you. Sure, maybe you can be clingy, but I love it. I love your clingy, because I am just as clingy to you if not more. I love how attached and touchy you are with me, I love all of it… I love you, Cassie.”

Cassie’s head perked up, fearing she misheard him. “You what?”

“I love you, Cassie. I am so in love with you,” he whispered, tucking her hair behind her ear and cupping her cheek. “You don’t have to say it back if you’re not ready, but I just wanted you to know.”

“I love you too, Y/n.” She grinned, cutting him off.

Y/n chuckled as his own smile grew. He pulled her in and gave her a soft, passionate kiss. He knew he wasn’t going to just skip over what she was worried about, and was going to continue to reassure her, but right now he was so ecstatic to know that she loved him just like he loved her.

okay this turned out WAAAYYYY longer than this was meant to, and didn’t necessarily follow canon… but i’m not mad at it!! i hope you all liked it, and i hope the anon who requested it loves it!! i’m so glad to be getting back into writing. i have so much more planned to come out and i hope you’re all as excited as i am!!

Day One (5/6)

Series Premise: What happened when Cassie met Sienna? Small moments that defined their friendship.

Book: Open Heart (post series) Characters: Cassie Valentine (F!MC), Sienna Trinh Rating/Category: Teen. Fluff. Words: 1,050

A/N: I'm using @choicesflashfics week 33, prompt 3 (in bold). Submission to @choiceschallenge-may2023 prompt "shower"

Cassie Valentine was sure of one thing. Being an attending physician was much more challenging than she had anticipated. In a few weeks, she went from being a senior resident and diagnostics fellow that relied on others to mentor her to the one everyone expected to have all the answers.

How on earth was she supposed to be the Oracle of Edenbrook? Cassie griped as she got off the T and trekked home.

Soon, she’d take over from the Dr. Ethan Ramsey as head of Edenbrook’s famed Diagnostics Team, consulted by billionaires and the downtrodden alike. How was she supposed to follow someone like that?!?

Cassie breathed a sigh of relief as she neared the building that had been home for three years. She waved to Farley, who was tinkering with the outside lights but didn’t linger.

She wasn’t in the mood to socialize unless it was with a pint of chocolate cookie dough ice cream hidden at the back of the freezer.

Once inside the apartment, she followed her post-work routine: a long, hot shower and slathering her skin with scented lotion. It was fragrant enough to make her senses forget the astringent, antiseptic smell permeating the hospital’s four walls.

Later, dressed in comfortable sweats and a tee shirt, Cassie parked herself on the living room couch and grabbed the TV remote. She dug her spoon directly into the ice cream carton while scanning titles on the streaming service.

She was in the mood for the trashiest reality show she could find. Strangers stranded on a deserted island for love. Hot couples in a multi-million dollar yacht sailing the Caribbean while chaos rained around them. She didn’t care what the plot was, or lack thereof.

Cassie wanted one night where interns, residents and the nursing staff weren’t chasing her for wisdom and answers. She was tapped out. Empty and running on fumes.

Gone fishing. Come back tomorrow.

Spoon hovering near her lips, she looked up when the front door slammed open. Sienna marched inside, muttering under her breath and looking even worse than Cassie felt. Her hair was sticking up in clumps, and there were odd splashes on her scrubs.

“What happened to you?” Cassie asked by way of greeting.

“Stupid, fucking leprechaun,” Sienna grumbled, eyes snapping in frustration.

Cassie paused in concern at the very un-Sienna-like response. “Say that again … I don’t think I heard you right the first time. Did you say leprechaun?”

Sienna threw herself on the couch and huffed.

“I was crossing the Commons, and some idiot decided to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day early by dressing like a leprechaun,” she explained. “At first, it seemed harmless, but then he started splashing people with some kind of sticky slime. I got caught in the crossfire. It was already a hellish day, and this just capped it.”

“Did the police arrest him?” Cassie said, curious.

“Of course not,” Sienna said with an eye-roll. “By the time they showed up, he was long gone, probably cackling all the way to a rainbow for his pot of gold.”

Cassie burst into laughter. “You know it’s witches that cackle, not leprechauns, right? Besides, it was a clear, sunny day and not a rainbow in sight.”

Sienna pouted for a second, but then her face cleared. “I’m going to grab a shower and get this grime off me. Is the bathroom free?”

“Yeah, it’s just you and me tonight. Elijah has a date, Aurora’s having dinner with Harper and Jackie’s at….” Cassie paused. “Hmm. I have no idea, but I guess we’ll see her when we see her.”

Sienna started to slide off the couch but stopped midway. Her gaze sharpened as she regarded Cassie.

“Did you have a bad day at work?” she asked in a sympathetic tone.

“Not bad. Just tedious,” Cassie said. “I’m going to polish off this ice cream, pour a glass of wine, or several, and then let a group of ridiculously gorgeous people in a Miami beachfront mansion entertain me with their contrived attempts to find fame and love.”

“Want to talk about it?”

“Nope,” Cassie quipped, licking her spoon. “Want to tell me about this hellish day?”

“Pass.” Sienna smiled. “Want some company instead?”

“Go get cleaned up. I’ll have wine and popcorn waiting,” Cassie smiled back.

An hour later, they were sprawled on the couch, a large bowl of popcorn between them and a half-empty bottle of red wine on the coffee table.

“What on earth is Derek thinking?” Sienna moaned at the television. “Doesn’t he know Charity trash-talks him to Melody?”

“There’s nothing charitable about Charity,” Cassie murmured companionably. “Anyway, Derek’s no peach. He’s been eye-fucking Kali since the hot tub wardrobe—” she put her fingers up in air-quotation marks “—malfunction.”

“Men are such pigs,” Sienna scoffed.

“Sing it, sister,” Cassie cheered, not taking her eyes off the TV.

“Of course, Dr. Ramsey is the exception,” Sienna said carefully, flicking at crumbs. “He’s much too dignified to be swayed by a skinny, oh-so-obvious…uh…floozy. Right?”

Cassie caught Sienna’s furtive glance at the phone lying face down on the cushion. She thought back to Max’s last Picta post from Singapore, the flirty comments left by his colleague, and hid a smile at Sienna’s somewhat catty tone.

Absence might make the heart grow fonder, she thought with a sigh. But it also brought out the green-eyed monster when the one you had feelings for enjoyed a particular reputation.

“You’re right,” Cassie began, collecting her thoughts. “M…uh, he is the exception. You don’t have to worry about him. Ethan, I mean.”

Cassie quickly glanced down at the phone and then back at Sienna. She kept her face neutral, holding back the smirk when she saw recognition dawn in Sienna’s eyes.

Sienna nodded wordlessly and turned back to the TV. A few minutes later, she grabbed her phone, settled back and started typing, her smile widening at the rapid succession of back-and-forth pings on the phone.

Like a good friend, Cassie pretended not to notice when her best friend retreated to her bedroom to FaceTime with Max. She’d let her besties play this will-they, won’t-they game a while longer. There was no hurry, after all. They were meant to be.

And that, as they say, was the Valentine Way.

Hi there! Happy STS! What is the food like in your WIP's world? What's the culture around sharing meals and cooking, or what is a recipe that one of your OCs loves to make and share with people? Or, even if your OC sucks at cooking, what's their go-to?

Hi! I’m going to be honest, this isn’t something I’ve developed in too much detail, but I’ll give you what I’ve got :)

The vast majority of people on the Seven Stations eat nutrient cubes and nutrient paste because they’re cheap (think dull beige cracker-like cubes about a centimeter in each direction and an equally beige paste with the consistency of peanut butter). They don’t taste very good but they’re nutritionally balanced so that no one who eats a steady diet of them is malnourished.

Richer people have access to simple food (mostly what we would consider “cheap food” nowadays like ramen noodles and similar easy-to-prepare things). They usually supplement these with nutrient cubes for additional nutrition. People can also order relatively cheap restaurant food as a treat - there are a lot of small eateries, especially on Third Station.

It’s mostly nobles and their servants who have access to the fancy food (although clones are typically not permitted to partake). All meat on the Seven Stations is lab-grown because they have no animals, so it’s fairly efficient to make. I haven’t narrowed down in detail what a lot of the food they eat is (I know they eat snails and that cucumbers are common enough for Stellaris’s aversion to them to be relevant). They do have a very formal culture around eating, though - food etiquette is very detailed and people will be judgmental if you screw it up. Every dish has appropriate cutlery and the proper way to handle said cutlery and failing to do so will be considered quite rude.

Belladonna doesn’t cook and doesn’t know how to - her servants have cooked for her her entire life. She also doesn’t eat most foods due to her anorexia, so she subsists mostly off of salads and multivitamins. Cassie is also a garbage cook who could burn water, but she absolutely loves food. She’ll eat almost anything put in front of her but loves spicy food especially.

Nellie loves to cook - she’s a maidservant so she cooks for Belladonna but she also considers it a hobby. She likes making a variety of things, so she doesn’t have a particular favourite dish. She’s gotten Rhys into it with her - he used to just consider it a job but started liking it a lot more once he was allowed to actually eat the food.

Turns out I had a lot more to say on the topic that I thought lol :). Thank you for the ask!

The Heroes of Spider-Man: Freshman Year

Just a little something I was working on for Spider-Man: Freshman Year. Basically it’s just a lineup of all the heroes confirmed/rumored for the show coming 2024.

Just for the record, some of the characters here that are in the show haven’t been entirely confirmed to take on their comic book mantles; this is just an idea of what it would all look like if they did. (Also in the case of the Slingers suits, I included them just in case the Identity Crisis Storyline gets adapted in some way on, with the people who wore them donning their respective suits.)

Lineup:

Peter Parker/Spider-Man

Doctor Strange

Matt Murdock/Daredevil

Nico Minoru/Sister Grimm

Amadeus Cho/Brawn

Jeanne Foucault/Finesse

Pearl Pangan/Wave

Cassie St. Commons/Dusk

Richard Gilmore/Prodigy

Hobie Brown/Hornet

Asha

Hope you like it!

Well it ain't quite a cottage, but I do live in the country! It's one of those small everyone-knows-everyone towns and there are at least 5 other towns in walking distance.

I don't mind London as a day trip. During the summer my mama and I are going up on the train to visit some of the museums and see a show, but I don't think I could handle being there long term. I'm very much a homebody, you know? Most of mom's side of the family is down here with us, and I think if I didn't have that support system I would break down in a week.

I first read the Percy Jackson books when I was eleven, and I was practically vibrating waiting for the show. In the books it always broke my heart that Percy had to tell Annabeth her brother was a traitor, but honestly Annabeth being there made it so much worse! Leah is such a brilliant actress that I almost started crying!

If the picture Percy keeps of Annabeth in the next season is not one of her at Disney world, I may actually riot! "Be a kid" MY HEART

I think the angst may be one of the reasons QoAaD is my favourite. Sometimes you just need a good cry and a hopeful ending, you know?

(Also the art piece in particular I was talking about was this piece

https://images.app.goo.gl/hkPrdB6a1ad5YrB48 )

Sorry for ruining St. Valentines day for you, I guess? I know it's kind of morbid but I love the story. It's one of the only holidays I actually observe.

So I had never heard any of the songs you picked, so here's a running commentary:

Say don't go

"I would stay forever if you say 'don't go' " HOLY GUACAMOLE ITS SO KIT

"And I'm yours but you're not mine" I don't know if this is what you were thinking but I think to the Blackthorns (at least subconsciously) they're always gonna be Ty's Kit and Livvy's Ty.

"I said 'I love you'/you say nothing back" ITS LITERALLY THEM

"But you won't" it's so them it's actually painful

Into you

"A different country, yeah, maybe that'd be better" Kit absolutely heard this song and took it literally

"I wish we didn't have so many friends in common" that is in fact the downside of making friends with your crushes family and only your crushes family

"So I don't run right into you/even though that what I wanna do" it's so Kit it hurts

"I'm so defenceless when it comes to you" I fully believe Ty, Tessa, Jem and Jace are the only people to really see through Kit's guard (maybe dru, I haven't finished Secrets of Blackrhorn Hall yet)

I miss you, I'm sorry

"You said 'forever' in the end I fought it/please be honest are we we better for it?" Honestly, I think even if the resurrection hadn't happened, they still would have ended up splitting up for a bit, if only so Ty could learn to be just-Ty and not Ty-and-Livvy

"You said 'forever' and I almost bought it" I'm crying

"Nothing happened in the way I wanted/every corner of this house is haunted" screaming, crying, throwing up etc

"Everything I know brings me back to us" no but really, Ty and Kit only knew each other for what, a few weeks? Maybe a month or two at most? (I'm not good with timelines) But everything keeps coming back to each other, no matter how much they may not want it to

I know it won't work

"But it's a lot/all the shine of half a decade fading" I know it was only three years for them, but seeing them break down years worth of inaccurate mental images is going to break me

"And part of me wants to walk away 'til you really listen/I hate to look at your face and know that we're feeling different" Cassie is a big fan of miscommunication, I know this, I'm prepared for this, I'm probably still going to end up crying tears of frustration

Your song choices have left me shaking, they're so perfect it's unreal

If I had to choose?

The night we met by Lord Huron

Let me down slowly by Alec Benjamin

Oh boy. Um, can I say all of them? Probably not. Magnus and Alec, definitely, as well as Kit and Ty. The third? Probably Henry and Charlotte

My hard question: top three platonic relationships in TSC?

-☀️

(P.S. don't worry about it, you take as long as you need)

I totally relate! I‘m also from the countryside, but am currently spending a lot of time in the city because of university. (To be fair the city isn‘t that big and has about 1 Million citizens)

You definitely have to tell me what your favourite museums and spots in London are! When I visited London last summer I was extremely fond of the Fleet Street, the St. James Park and the National Gallery. And I totally understand you (I’m a homebody myself). So when I moved out last October it was really tough and the only thing that was really reassuring was the fact that I share a flat with my sister and drive home every weekend (the city is only an hour ride from my hometown so it‘s fine)

So true! I‘m actually thinking about rereading the PJO books after watching the series. And yes Leah did such a great job, she‘s just the perfect Annabeth! I‘m so excited for the next season, I always loved the second book! Which PJO book is your favourite btw? Mine would have to the fourth (I have always been super interested in the labirynth!

Okay okay, I have to give it you. I‘m currently rereading QOAAD and I absolutely love it. It‘s been four years since I read it and I totally underestimated how good this book was. It has so many interesting plot lines and I just CAN‘T STOP READING!

Please don‘t feel sorry for sharing the true Valetine‘s story with me! It‘s actually super exciting to learn new things every day!

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH OMFG! Not you listening to each song and sharing your commentary with me? 😭 I absolutely adore you for that (and sorry if those songs left you shaking - I think that‘s part of the experience)

STOP! The night we met is one of my favourite songs of all time and fits them so well! 🥹 And let me down slowly?

It fits them so well oh my lord 😭 (I love how we are giving each other song suggestions that are perfect for another nightly KitTy cry)

The really hard thing about this is to only name three because I love so many! But if I really must pick three it would be: Ty and Julian, Jem and Will, Matthew and James

What are yours?

My hard question: Your two favourite parabatai couples in TSC

#this took me embarrassingly long #i‘m so sorry #☀️ <3
