She comes bearing apology gifts! The cup of herbal tea that was promised and a card that reads as follows:

"Sorry for almost cracking your head open like a walnut! Get well soon - With Love, Yanfei"

Through the coasting ebb and flow of time, much of the recent day would be devoted to his recovery. For the initial torrent of raw agony was a trial his unconscious frame had to work itself through. A pulsing, mind gnawing ache that intends to drill through flesh and permeate through the very soul. To think that Sweet ol' Yanfei had that kind of trick packed underneath her fingertips.

Truth be told? Caelus had a certain, twisted sense of pride with how all of that worked out. It looks like even the realm of Balance finds itself getting influenced now and then!

Such thoughts however failed to be written on his face. For his lips were screwed in distaste, a perpetual glare held steady upon his features, not to mention the glare of the brighter nebulae shifting through the curtains tempted him to squint the entire time. The room found itself empty by the time he awakens, outside the form of a few scattered gifts set by his bedside.

"..Ah. Feels like a damn planet was playing marbles with my head." However, a complaining Caelus is a positive Caelus. Abruptly lifting himself up, a sizzling rush of Path power continues to flow around his head, the remnant fury of the Equilibrium still swimming across his flesh and metaphysical concepts. It was the inevitable fragrance of some tea that conjured him back to reality. And for a fleeting second, part of him wonders if he should be ashamed for being so greedily led back with sustenance alone.

..

....

Nahhhhhhhh.

"Mmm? What's this?" The Trailblazer's hand sought the card first before the drink, allowing the still steaming cup a chance to cool down. Instead he'd let his eyes flick over the brief contents of the note left by a certain Xiezhi. For an instance of time, he pitied himself for being able to miss her likely adorably panicked look. If his scrambled head recovered a little more, part of him wonders exactly what summoned the wrath of Aeons to come for his soul.

In the end however, he'd just plap the card upon his face as he lays back down. A cheeky smile was set upon those delinquent like features while the words replayed time and time again in his mind. This card would certainly be made into a precious item from here on.

"Like they say, it is a battlefield in all that. Heheh. She loves me." A sentiment he feels a similar energy for as well. For Caelus loves Yanfei too.

Fucked up Mouthwashing fix-it AU where Jimmy is able to grapple with his homo/bisexuality properly but instead of this making him healthier or more normal it just causes him to noncon Curly instead of Anya. As a result he doesn't crash the ship and they all make it safely to their destination and Jimmy manipulates and guilts his way into living with Curly afterwards even as the rest of the crew goes their separate ways. Everyone is happy except Curly :)

i don't know why, but in the sparse five hours of sleep i got last night, my brain decided to plague me with dreams of lilia taking care of an elderly silver, up until the final moments of his life. i could hear silver's thoughts the whole time, and he was so absolutely inundated with shame and guilt it almost seemed like he was suffocating. he kept thinking over and over and over again that this all should've been the other way around. he should've been the one looking after his father in the twilight of his life. he should've been his aging father's rock, his safe place to land, his stalwart defender against a world so unbelievably cruel to its most vulnerable denizens. again and again his heart cried out in vain, it should've been the other way around.

as a child he had once wished - prayed, even, to the same force now threatening to reclaim his spirit back into its unconscious designs - for his father to live a long and prosperous life, and it was as though that very wish had backfired on him in a way he never could have possibly imagined

YPU GUYS I JUST FOUND MY ART TRACED AND REPOSTED TO FUCKING PINTEREST IM GONNA CRYDHDN 😭😭😭

[whoviandoodler]

you ever go into a tag for a show or whatever and find several painstakingly created gif sets from interviews with the actors where they're just like. fully mocking fans? talking about them like they're the most despicable thing on this earth kind of bitter mocking. and on the one hand you're like, okay, i get it, fans can really be shit and get overly parasocial and think you owe them something beyond the work you created but on the other it's like. bro this makes me not want to engage with anything you do at all. ever. you don't have to sing your fans praises but you can do them the basic courtesy of professionalism and not ridiculing the entirety of everyone who both engages with your creative work and whose interest ultimately results in your paycheck.

Its really a feat to take my favorite character and my favorite hc and then make it so bad it makes me roll in my metaphorical grave

[fluxweeed]

yes I agree that you’re implicitly required to rec a fic you’re involved in which is why it HURTS WHEN PEOPLE DONT like oof. you said yes to work on it but then you didn’t like it that much hey. obviously I’d rather that than people rec something they don’t actually like, I’m not saying it should be disingenuous, it just hurts you know? ouch

nahhh i don't think ppl should feel obligated to do marketing for a fic they've already put time and energy into helping the writer with!

"Would you still love me if I were a worm?" feat. Nuwa from HI3

"Ms.Cauldron Master.."

Do worms not have sentience? Dreams? Aspirations? For Caelus such a decision was as simple as breathing. Thus he'd make his decision to step forth, conviction within his steps as an impulse screaming within overrode any other brand of thought. He'd proceed to approach Lingsha's new form, showing his devotion to the cause (her) as he'd left that tail end, marveling the view as if it was a flourishing line of scintillating ruby.

Only then would he proceed to coil that very tail around his shoulders, willingly, going as far as to have more of her serpentine body practically situated like a scarf before he walks by her side, settling down beside her. A vivid, cascading wave would hit the shoreline as the sun shines brighter above them. "Come what may. If there's one thing that life taught me, its to never judge appearances. Like right now, do you know just how warm you are? A fiery soul despite your complexion is beyond obvious to me."

"You could be a leviathan and my thoughts still wouldn't change. Small dragon, Vidyadhara dragon, giant space dragon. To me, it all spells Lingsha here at the end of the day. Someone who I'm definitely going to enact my revenge on." The words were spun with a playful note as he cants his face, turning to her with a gallant shine within his eyes.

"..Y'know, this is actually a lot more comfortable then I thought." Don't mind him, there may have to be a bit of cheek nuzzling applied to the tail here."

Jan 26th, 2025 - autistic burnout

I had a period of really quite high energy for a couple months after I moved into my new place in August. And despite things still not being perfect or amazing in my life, I suddenly felt like I had interests and wanted to do things instead of being obligated to do them. and I was so so fearful the entire time that that was going to just be a fleeting moment, and eventually the reality of my life would all come crashing back down around me.

And the shit part? It has. I am in burnout now bcs I reached a point where that was no longer sustainable. And I saw all the red flags and moments where I should have put myself and my needs first but didn't (bcs it was the holiday period and then I had to prep for my mom's birthday). And now I'm exhausted and sad and apathetic and numb and crying daily again. And it fucking sucks so bad to have that fear confirmed? That like, nothing nice or good will last. That my mental health just can't be stable or high energy. But it was only confirmed bcs I ignored all the warning signs telling me to calm the fuck down, stop seeing people so much and just stop doing so much!!! I suppose I thought if I just kept on doing it, it would just become my new normal? As if I didn't have multiple conditions that include chronic fatigue and shit. Oh not to mention I've been eating gluten again, so that's definitely not helping anything.

so now I'm struggling again to leave my room to go eat bcs I might run into a roommate and I feel like shit bcs I still haven't gotten the piece of furniture I need to organize and put all my shit away that's just sitting in a huge corner of the living room which is convincing me that my roommates hate me for it bcs I don't like seeing all of those bags either!!! but I want to make the right choice when I'm buying this expensive piece of furniture since I have to pay to get it delivered since I don't have a car so getting the same exact stupid Ikea furniture second-hand is off the table for me. And then once I get this piece of furniture delivered, I have to get it up the stairs and build it and right now? that sounds excruciating and exhausting.

Rereading ayaka is in love with Hiroko senpai!!! Last time I read it I don't think it was finished/I didn't finish it but ack. Now I also want to be in love 😭😭😭

[ssoupcup]

hot take but I don't want to be remembered after i die. i want those who knew me to be happy that i was there and remember me, but that's it. i don't want to leave a visible legacy. i don't want my name to be passed down by generations and talked about for years to come. i simply want to rot in the ground and decay naturally, return to nature and have been a mere human whose existence mattered no more or less than another who died the same day as i. i want to achieve a lot in life, and i want my achievements to be recognised and useful whilst i am alive. but after i die, all i want my legacy to be is a smile, a good memory, someone who loved, and to be left in the past. i don't want people to recognise my name in a family tree. i just want to exist now and fade out when it's my time, like centuries of unnamed humans before me.

love me as i live now, and let my name fade out after i die. its okay to forget me, in fact, please do

I ADORE YOUR WRITING!!

what about a reader who’s unknowingly flirting with the twst wonderland cast (specifically savanclaw, octanaville and diasomnia) because of culture differences and species differences?

e.g petting their ears, giving them gifts, smiling with teeth (bc for moray eels that’s how they mate 👀)

OR fem reader who has her period and some of the twst students can smell it I LITERALLY HAD A NIGHTMARE ABOUT THIS 😭😭😭😭

OMLL I APPRECIATE ITTT!!! sorry for the wait!!! i chose some from each dorm bc of my character limit btw!!

azul ashengrotto

despite how much azul continues to do his best to learn about life on land… relationships are certainly difficult for him to understand sometimes considering how long he has spent his life in the sea and though there are many similarities between merpeople… there are still some differences. once azul is rather close to you he does become unintentionally— clingy with you. (when you two officially get together that's another story) but he has a habit of wanting to lean close to you or have a hand on you in some way, like on the small of your back when showing you something in the mostro lounge.

so needless to say, he is in love with any sort of touch from you he takes that as some sort of hope and sign that you reciprocate how he feels haha. jade and floyd tease him ALL the time about it especially when he was struggling to keep his cool-headed composure after you once gave him a hug after he did something to help you once.

like I've said azul really doesn't think about it or even try to be this way around you he just does aljdfajdkhf. he’ll feel like a smitten fool as he sits in the vip lounge as he's doing papers and just think about how you playfully linked your arm around his to bring him somewhere. small things like that are actually quite big to him when it comes down to the differences.

jade leech

he's aware you probably don't know that you're unknowingly flirting with him, but he finds it amusing and plays along with you, nevertheless. he thinks it's cute that you don't know and all the more enticing, you’ll find him chuckling, trying to hide his grin with his gloved hand “oh my, I didn't know you liked me that much fufu” he’d say. you can't help but feel confused as to what he finds so interesting… like you literally just yawned.

it'll take him a while to actually tell you what it means since he finds the obliviousness to be quite cute. you only put two and two together when he tells floyd about what you did right in front of him and the two laugh about it. now you've got floyd teasing u about it..

like azul he is a little more affectionate just in a different more. in a less obvious fashion, though there definitely have been a few occasions where he likes to bring your hand to his lips and see your reaction, he finds it so amusing. he always has his teethy grin plastered on his face.

leona kingscholar

he hates the way he can always tell when you're wearing cologne or perfume and he hates that he likes it as well, he may or may not be a bit addicted to your scent. he literally can tell if you're near just because he knows the damn fragrance you use.

if you two are particuarly close... like him falling asleep around you and such. if you happen to pet his head and his ears, he immediately shoots you this look then mumbles something before being too tired to do anything about it or give you some retort. he just lets it happen... he does enjoy it anyway. slowly he kinda doesnt realize how clingy he can get with you because of it. he becomes a little needy and wanting more attention from you. he cant help it.... i mean you basically just showed him that you're fine with it anyways.

leona seems to be someone who can get pretty possessive, unintentionally too over you. kind of territorial, like if you're someone he has eyes for then he doesn't expect others to really get in the way of that.

malleus draonica

malleus is not only a fae but a pretty sheltered one too, I’d think he’d take almost anything from you as a sign of you being completely infatuated with him as he is with you. you could offer split your ice cream or invite him out somewhere, show any sort of interest in him as he talks about gargoyles as he’s doing single club activities. the one time you asked curiously and wanted to touch his horns, he’d be searching for the loveliest jewel to bestow you for your wedding day.

speaking of jewels… he gifts to you a lot especially after you give him anything first (it could be a cool rock you found) and he’d be so smitten and glad to reciprocate that by giving you earrings, rings, necklaces etc. and when you accept them even though you're not exactly fully understanding why he takes it even more as a sign of you accepting his advances.

after taking any of your little acts of being somewhat kind to him and he’s already so deeply into you, lilia would certainly be someone who hears just all about it. i think he would only feel happy for malleus, as it appears he must’ve found the right one. he is just supportive of malleus and is simply overjoyed to know he has some little human that makes him so happy.

lilia vanrouge

he has lived long enough and in different places to understands human courting's and more so than someone like malleus. he knows how different it is, trust me he is fully aware, but he thinks it's amusing. lilia pretends to take it the wrong way and watch you get all confused, when he's just being playful.

just cant help that he finds it so adorable when you unknowingly show him affections as a fae would in his culture. even just being slightly affectionate with him is enough to have him giggling and warning you to be careful to what fae you do that to. they do tend to take very kindly towards any affections and gifts!

lilia will straight up tell you though too, you could gift him and give him something neat you found or made, and he'd look up at you with a stupid grin like "kfufu... i accept your love, dear" NO???. he still holds onto anything from you with the utmost joy.
