Crush

“You make it difficult to not overthink”

a/n: this is embarrassing and yes based off of my real life (VI U KNOW WHATS UP) let’s hope lang ‘A’ will never find this HAHAHA. very very much ooc i just hv to get these gross feelings out of the way 💔💔👎👎

“well, hey there everyone! id like you all to meet miss nishimura! a wonderful lady i met on the street who wanted to check the agency out!” dazai announced hand in hand with a woman with straight brunette hair up to her hips. “dazai, you can’t bring women to the agency just because they want to, that’s an abuse of power!” kunikida yelled, “should i remind you how dangerous it is to be around the building let alone inside?!?!” he groaned, sitting back down.

“kunikida, please! it’s been a two weeks since atsushi and akutagawa fought fitzgerald, i’m sure yokohama is safe for now” dazai smiled and started bringing nishimura around the building. “that dazai… seriously, there should be a rule that just completely restricts him from dating ever!” kunikida sighed out, half joking.

“haha! that’s true kunikida, dazai is a true enemy of women.” you laughed, laying a sheet of paper over with a pile of finished paperwork. “hm, well, say s/o, do you have a boyfriend?” atsushi spoke out. “…” you sighed thoughtfully, thinking of what to say. “no i don’t, but i do have what might be a crush? i’m still not sure…” you muttered.

“really?” kunikida’s head peaked from his desk. “what’s this guy like?” he asked, waiting intently for your answer. you sat stunned— kunikida who never had the time to engage in gossip stopped the swift moves of his fountain pen to listen to your love life. “well… he’s really kind but, he can be scary sometimes. a lot of people are afraid of him but he really is nice if you connect with him enough.” you looked around.

lying is fun… well, it’s not exactly lying, it’s a half-truth!! seriously, it is. it’s a fitting enough description for yosano isn’t it? its just— yosano as a dude. “scary, hm? i don’t see why people would like him based off of your description…” kunikida looked at you, judging your taste in (wo)men. “he’s not all that bad, i swear! it’s just something that he personally calls tough love, he really is a sweet guy if you get to know him.” you weakly try to defend yourself.

“c’mon atsushi!! i need back-up!!” you look to your right. “s/o, i could definitely see this guy as a best friend, but as a boyfriend? i don’t think he’s right for you— or at least healthy for you.” you groan in response, unable to form any sort of defense. “guys, i promise he’s much more appealing when you meet him in real life!”

“then can we meet him?”

“…what”

“you said yourself he’s more tolerable face to face— so can we meet him?” haha fuck. “guhhh…” you childishly whine at the hole you dug yourself into. “you’re not my mom or dad! i don’t have to bring him for you to approve. plus, he isn’t even my boyfriend yet!!!” you scowl, turning your chair away from them. “then can we at least get an initial? i will find out who it is myself.”

mind; a blank. if you said it was a guy and you said yosano’s initial, A. they might still find out!.. the nickname you’ve given to yosano might be a bit obvious but not as much as A(kiko Yosano). “S, his initial is S.”

“satoshi!” atsushi raised his voice an octave. “what? no! who’s that…” you stare dumbfounded at your junior. “ah, i was just thinking of names…” atsushi shied away, embarrassed.

“i’m not gonna tell either of you!! really!” you announced. atsushi’s embarrassment died down as he laughed it off before he looked back at kunikida. “let’s respect s/o’s wishes and not look into it, okay?” kunikida sighed, letting the matter go (for now), albeit hesitantly.

it’s embarrassing, so embarrassing. you have the hardest, fattest, horrendously down bad crush on the agency’s medic, akiko yosano. you just wanna be her girlfriend so badly, you wanna kiss her until you disappear, kiss her until her lipstick is all over your lips.

of course, you might be delusional, but it doesn’t mean you’re naïve. the fantasy of being akiko’s, and spending your every hour of everyday, with her hand glued to yours is a dream (no, literally, the dream you had last night). but there’s no way to envision a future with her. with your schedules, her plans for the future and yours, a relationship is just off the table.

“s/o, really— ask anything. i told you i’d tell you anything you wanted to know about me.” is it overthinking? is it purely platonic? ignoring every sound to gaze at her checking her matte shaded nails and looking at the time once in a while,

‘“sho, that’s— what the hell?!?!’ you frowned as she laughed, her thin lips parting to make a grin. “it’s not funny! ugh, i hate you!..” you pouted (SATIRICALLY). “aha! i love you too, s/o.”’

“hm… s/o, everyone left?” akiko’s low yet melodic voice noted. looking around, everyone disappeared “are you about to go shopping, sho?” she smiled endearingly. “ah, you know me so well!.. let’s go?”

[lilnasxvevo]

Still watching Blacklist here are some things that have been on my mind:

1. Watched the episode “Wujing.” Went hm that’s interesting ive heard that name before...realized it’s one of the main characters in JTTW (Sha Wujing, usually known as “Sandy” in English translations which I hate), this never gets addressed in the episode at all even though my understanding is that Chinese naming customs mean that names do not get “reused” and people don’t get named after other people and this dude having the same name as one of the most famous characters ever raised an eyebrow for me. It would be like meeting someone in England named Hamlet and you’re like “Uh, like the prince of Denmark?” and they’re like “Nah, just a coincidence.” They made up for it with a character named Jin Sun which is a perfectly good Chinese name and then made me scream at the TV when they were like “Heres a Chinese dude who lives in China, his name is Henry Cho” when that’s a KOREAN LAST NAME GUHHH. Also forgot to mention that every other bad guy on the show gets introduced by a ridiculous criminal nickname like The Innkeeper or The Stewmaker. Is “Wujing” just a criminal alias? Why? How?

2. In “The Stewmaker”, Red kills the eponymous character in a very gross way when Liz is incapacitated and can’t stop him—the Stewmaker was planning to kill Liz and had injected her with a paralytic sedative that took some time to wear off. Liz definitely would have died if Red hadn’t found them in time. When Red firsts finds them, he is so fucking tender and concerned with Liz and makes sure she’s okay and it’s cute until he does the murder. Afterwards, Liz gets a chance to talk to him. “You’re a monster,” she tells him in reference to the murder he just did, and he solemnly agrees. “How can you live with yourself?” she asks, and he says simply, “Because I saved you.”

And if THAT DIDN’T MAKE ME THINK OF one of the best DW moments of all time...

3. CLIFTON COLLINS JR WAS IN THE SHOEMAKER!!!! They showed his character in the first couple of minutes and I was like “Wait. I know that face. That’s one of my baby boys” and then his name popped up in the beginning-of-show credits and I was like THATS TENDO CHOI!!! THAT IS IN FACT ONE OF MY BABY BOYS!!! He was really good I love him.

Where’d he come from?

Leander Brie has been a character I’ve thrown around for a long time. He was originally created as a general self insertion sort of character, his personality largely being based off my own. He has gradually become his own person however, and eventually I repurposed him as the main character and narrator of my own story, Stack.

Introvert or Extrovert

Though he does need alone time, he is very much a social and outgoing character, sometimes to the point of irritating those around him.

If he gets particularly sad, angry, or scared, he’ll either seek out Taylor, or stay on his own for several hours to cool down.

Greatest Fear

Probably his largest fear is that he’ll disappoint the people he cares about, and that he knows care about him.

A big part of his personality hinges on the fact that he needs to feel useful and helpful, and if people see him as a problem, a hindrance, or really any sort of roadblock, he takes it hard.

Sense of humor

Lee is a sort of self deprecating, immature goofball when it comes to humor. Lots of vulgarity and jokes at his own expense.

He loves puns. So many puns.

What kinda books and movies does he like

He loves campy stuff, because he’s living during a major war and needs a good laugh

Detective noir and cheesy race flicks would be totally down his alley

Music!?

I briefly had him in a band called reflector that played electronica, so let's put that in here

I can see him liking/playing guitar

Perfect Spouse

He needs someone who realizes that his constant stream of self deprecating humor is actually a plea for validation. He also needs humor from their side or he will die.

Not literally but it’s a must.

What is something he would say?

So you may be wondering why it’s taken so long to update, but that’s because I AM NOW WRITING FROM EVYTH CITY. BOOYAH. Okay details, details. Honestly it was so out of the blue, I still can’t really believe it’s happening.

You don’t travel between the realms unless you’re a serious big shot, or you work for an even bigger company. Or both. Actually usually both.

This is a transcription of old notes, and memory, as at the original moment of drafting this journal entry, I didn’t have access to my PDA, or any other equipment. Why you ask? Well, I was duped. Bad. I’m okay, sort of. But my situation at the moment isn’t exactly ideal.

Do you ever take a step back from your life and just think “What the hell have I been doing?” I’ve been doing that a lot lately.

Largest Regret

Probably becoming involved with the Sourcists in the first place

This wasn’t his fault, and he really couldn’t have seen it coming, but he still considers it his fault since it was his own actions that got him involved

Morality

He believes in second chances, but never third.

His philosophy on harm is he’ll never do something to someone that they wouldn’t do to him, so he won’t hurt someone unless they clearly want to hurt him, and he won’t kill unless he’s fighting someone who would kill him without hesitating.

He doesn’t like killing, and at first he’s super against it, but once Aegis and the Sourcists really start going at each other’s throats, he accepts it.

Where would he live?

Ideally he’d live in some really isolated small town, in the middle of a forest.

He never really gets that though, and lives on various military compounds almost his whole life, until moving his whole operation to Skrattle, and taking a lot of Aegis with him.

Who would play him?

Originally I thought Thomas Brodie-Sangster would match him, but his look has changed lately.

Just doing a quick search through actors, I think Rupert Grint would work. He’d have to darken his hair and do a Canadian accent though.

Sex and gender

Cis

What I have sometimes describes as pendulum bi

He’ll go for girls or boys, but he swings one way, stays that way for a while, then swings back. Never both at the same time.

Why’d I make him

Well like I said, he sort of started out as a self insertion character, then evolved into his own distinct thing.

A think a big part of it was because I could, and I wanted a sort of alter ego who could just do whatever the hell he wanted in his own little world. He’s become a lot more than that though.

What’s his RPG class

Definitely something quick.

I don’t know RPG classes, but he’s very small, and light on his feet. Something fast and stealthy.

He won the lottery!

Being an inventor, he always needs high end tools and equipment. He’d definitely buy whatever he’d need for whatever project he was currently working on, and probably set aside a large amount of cash for future projects. He’d also buy himself whatever the newest in space craft tech is, since that’s one of the things he’s most curious about from competitors, even though he also designs his own.

Game show

I’ve never really watched game shows, so I can’t give a really definitive answer to this, but I can see him forming alliances quickly with other smart people, and doing his best to talk his allies into splitting whatever pot they end up winning between them. If he ended up winning, he’d give everyone a fair cut based on how they performed.

If we met, what would he do?

I think that’s kind of an odd question, since if we’re talking him as a character, I’d just be another face to him.

If he knew who I was to him, he’d probably pick my brain about what I was thinking and what decisions lead to him being the way he is.

Personality tests

https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test

Apparently he is a debater

Animal?

http://www.quizony.com/animalPersonality/1.html?qisrc=start-1&qdevice=desktop

Apparently he’s a beaver

Aight.

And his bird is a parakeet.

Okay.

Videogame fighting style

I really can’t see him being in a brawling game, but if he’s stuck in a fight, he goes for a quick, low damage but rapid hitting style.

He always carries two batons with hidden blades for lethal and non lethal close combat, but they rarely see use.

Quirks?

Whenever he’s confused, there’s always a short burst of gibberish while he thinks

“Ah eh… uh hmmm guhhh hmmmm. Neh? Gehhhh.”

That would all be said in about a second.

Whenever he is shown a new thing, he has to pick it up and inspect it. This can be a problem sometimes.

When he’s thinking and someone tries to talk to him, he will always put his finger over their lips and glare at them.

How would he deal with another series world?

Harry Potter

Being familiar with magic, though not of the HP variety, he would very quickly try to integrate into wizarding society and try to start a business selling tech disguised as magic to them.

He would definitely have a deep interest in the dark arts, but for academic, not nefarious purposes.

Star Trek

He’d almost certainly enlist in Starfleet, and try to work his way up through the ranks of those who actually build Starships, and try to integrate his own designs.

Can he sing?

Short answer:

Yes he can sing.

Longer answer:

Being avian, he has a massive lung capacity in respect to his size, and a naturally clear and high voice. He’d definitely be a tenor, as almost no aves have the size to allow them to sing low notes. How often he actually does sing is fairly limited, as there is little to no reason to in the time he lives in. Even if he wasn’t living in a time of conflict, just because almost all Aves can sing, doesn’t mean they do.

What would his ideal meal be?

Not all Aves avoid eating birds, but Lee is definitely among those that do, so chicken is out and so is turkey. He’s not vegetarian however. In terms of meat, his favorite is fish, really of any kind but catfish in particular. Some kind of salad with a large serving of catfish on the side would easily get his attention.

http://flavornc.com/2013/09/blackened-catfish-salad/

What does he do when he’s bored?

Lee has a few habits that can be quite destructive if he doesn't keep them in check.

If he has nothing else to do, he’ll begin tinkering with whatever is in his immediate vicinity. When he’s in his own space this is fine, but it can result in him inadvertently destroying things of importance because he needs them for whatever mindless project he’s working on.

At one point he “borrowed” Regen’s personal sidearm because he needed focusing crystals from it for a laser pointer he was absent mindedly building.

Sometimes he’ll also just start making weird noises, and eventually everyone in the room will be annoyed at him.

How does he express his affection?

Lee is a total cuddler, and will gladly platonically cuddle with just about anyone he likes.

For friends he (and the rest of the Aves for that matter) do a forehead touch where most people would give a kiss on the cheek or shake hands.
