#HIS DICTION IS SO ATTRACTIVE

[crandberrysaucewithpulp]

whatever questions i’ve ever had dublin answered them all

[mamawasatesttube]

tell me about what if im not a spicy enough boyfriend

12. what if im not a spicy enough boyfriend....docx

demisexual kon fic save me. save me demisexual kon fic. (it won't because i have to actually WRITE IT!!!!!!!!!!)

basically this is a fic about kon's Fucking Issues (see. see it's funny because it's. it's about. his issues. with sex. which is also called fucking. and. and this is such a good joke). getting into an actually healthy relationship with someone he's actually attracted to for the first time in his life is all well and great, but suddenly he's got to deal with the fact that he's got, uh... some complexes and maybe some trauma to unpack. about their sex life? uh oh. that's uncool and swagless of him, isn't it? he thought it was all supposed to be smooth sailing once he actually started dating his bestie. what do you MEAN there's still more emotions to deal with !?

and basically it's about kon unpacking the fact that his first sexual encounter was in fact traumatic, that he's built up a lot of ideas in his head about what sex is Supposed to be like because he had a lot of media downloaded into his head that was like "you're a guy. guys love sex." that actually clashed with the fact that he's aspec but didn't know it, which gave him a whole boatload of new and exciting shame issues, and that he is experiencing sexual attraction for what might be the first time ever, and he doesn't know what to do with it.

also thanks to kon's incredible character voice and diction, this fic has a banger first line if i do say so myself:

"The first time Tim lets him smash, Kon breaks down in tears."

i vividly remember writing this and then just putting my face into my hands.

so since I know now that Kevin is Australian. What about the Hannibals with a reader who really loves their voice? Like just loves hearing them talks and it makes them a little flustered sometimes. i vaguely remember a similar ask being sent in but I don’t know if I just imagined that or not.

Peter beamed at you.

"You like my voice ? Aww…Thank you so much. I like your voice too. It’s really cute."

Peter would blush and be very happy about it. He would also compliment you back and go on and on about how you have the best voice in the world. When he was little he had a very high-pitched voice that made him sound like a girl and he used to get self-conscious about it. He was rather quiet back then and it’s only when he hit puberty that he started gaining confidence and talking more. So any compliment about his voice would make him really happy.

Kevin stared at you as if you had just told him the earth was flat.

"You kiddin’, right ? I sound like a drunken sailor whose already got three children and who nurses his beers at night…You seriously find my voice attractive ?"

Kevin is really insecure about his voice. He has a really pronounced accent. A very noticeable one that he is working hard to get rid off. It is not easy to be the only Australian in a family of British or American-English speaking people. Especially since he thinks Morgan has a perfect-sounding voice compared to his. If you complimented his voice, he would think you are making fun of him and be defensive immediately.

"Arg Arg. Yeah. Bugger off, yeah ?"

Morgan smirked smugly when you told him.

"Do I ? I have never noticed…" He replied in the most nonchalant manner possible, even though he perfectly knows how perfect his voice is. Morgan is a high scholar. He is a genius. He is confidence incarnate. His main concern in life is to learn as much as possible and to reach the Hannibal-required level of perfection. Hannibal Jr. is the first son and a model to all. Morgan dreams of becoming him. So he would exercise his voice to sound as smooth and beautiful as possible…you attract flies better with honey, don’t you ?

Hannibal Jr. knows he has excellent diction and a poised voice—calm and serene. But because he trained his voice to sound the way it does. He had personal trainers hired by Hannibal Sr. and various speech lessons when he was little. Besides, he is a psychologist. His job is 90% knowing how to keep his cool and to sound as reassuring as possible to his patients. When you told him you liked his voice, he smiled and without looking up from his notes he replied:

"I know, love. My voice is the main reason why I still have patients."

…Even though he obviously killed a lot of them.

"Thank you, little lamb. Voice is quite important…" He winked at you and chuckled.

Hannibal Sr. has a deep and gravely voice due to his age. He also knows that being quiet is important so he may not talk a lot, but because he knows that talking too much is a disadvantage. He likes to leave people guessing and when he uses his voice—it is usually to read to himself. He likes books and knows that the best way to do a book justice is by using one’s voice to make the words come alive. He would be more than happy to read to you and enjoy having conversations with you if you want to hear him speak some more.

I LOVE NIGHT POEM im so addicted to 1:20,, the way mark sings it and jisungs vocals after 😭😭 its so good im happy to see a fellow night poem enthusiast B)

Please, the way Mark delivers it so attractive (it's his diction) and Jisung's tone is just wow. I'm in love literally. I don't know why I love Jaemin's parts in this song (especially from 0:35), and the Jeno and Renjun singing together is just wonderful.

[bluwavez]

IN WHICH ... DEEPDIVE passes the phone.

FEATURING ... DEEPDIVE ENSEMBLE

TRIGGER WARNINGS + WRITERS NOTE ... Just some cursing and mentions of sex, suicide, and death in a joking matter! Inspired by that silly Tiktok trend from a while ago. This is like the sequel to the VENUS one I did a few days ago!

"I'm passing the phone to the guy who got our first dorm infested with bed bugs," Jacob starts, a collective series of groans being heard from behind the camera.

Woojin's lips form a line when he's handed the camera, blinking at his own reflection as the boys around him jeer at his expense. "Everyone should know, I apologized profusely for that!" Woojin defends himself before chuckling.

"Okay, I'm passing the phone to the most ran-through member of the team," Woojin decides with a nod.

Finn smiles softly at the camera, blinking blankly a few times before nodding. "Okay, well, I'm passing the phone to the guy who lost half his discography to a group he hates."

Noah bites the inside of his cheek when he's handed the phone, looking off-camera as the room fills with laughter. He sighs dramatically, eyes widening and head bobbling as he thinks of what to say. "I'm passing the phone to the guy who's caught chlamydia twice."

"Twice?" Kiwoo can be heard shouting off screen when Blue takes the camera, the tips of his ears turning red as he bites his bottom lip, nodding slowly.

"Alright, I'm passing the phone to someone with a dead dad." Blue says, causing a chorus of shouts and laughs to fill the room.

Finn and Noah are on screen, laughing hysterically to the point there's tears in Finn's eyes. "We don't know who he's talking about," Finn says between laughs, his head resting on Noah's as they nearly double over into the camera.

The video cuts and it's just Noah in frame, clearing his throat as a few chuckles leave his lips. "I'm–" Finn's laughter off-screen cuts him off, causing Noah to laugh so hard his eyes turn into crescent moons.

"I'm passing the phone to the person who was a flop longer than all of us," Noah finally gets out between laughs.

Jisung smiles at the camera, tilting his head at his reflection. The boys can be heard laughing around him but he keeps a cool and calm demeanor. "I'm passing the phone to the best singer on the team," Jisung says simply, not fully grasping the game.

Kiwoo is beaming when he's given the phone, his hand over his heart. "Aw!" Kiwoo coos. Someone off screen could be heard mocking him, making him side eye whoever it was before looking back at the camera.

"I'm passing the phone to someone who's mom didn't want him."

Jacob stares blankly at the camera, not happy this is his first appearance. He looks around at the quiet chuckles around him before nodding slowly. "I'm passing the phone to someone who's dad didn't want him," Jacob says, mimicking Kiwoo's diction and tone of voice.

Jisung blinks a few times at the camera, laughing through his nose as he tries to bite back his actual laughter. "Um...Fuck," He laughs looking to whoever stood beside him. The video cuts back to him with himself collected, still chuckling quietly.

"I'm passing the phone to most attractive member on the team." He pauses, keeping the camera on himself. A wave of laughter fills the room at his joke, making Jisung crack a smile before cutting the video. "Anyways, I'm passing the phone to the guy who thought a girl would appreciate him writing the lyrics "slow it down, making it bouncy," about her."

Finn doesn't look proud when the video cuts to him, nodding slowly in shame. "Um...Damn, wait–" Finn covers his mouth so the camera can't catch him smiling as he tries to collect himself. "I'm passing the phone to the guy who lost his virginity in a hotel bathroom." Finn decides, giving the camera a thumbs up.

Kiwoo scratches the back of his head when he's given the phone, glaring off camera when he hears someone laugh at him. "I'm passing the phone to the guy who was two steps away from making an OnlyFans because his Twitch channel was dying."

Woojin laughs at himself when he's on camera, putting his hands up. "Guilty! Oh no!" He mocks, laughing at himself as he does so. "I'm passing the phone to the guy who we let produce a title track because we were scared if we told him no he'd try and kill himself again."

Jacob looks tired of this game. "I'm passing the phone to the phone to the guy who literally has a photocard collection of himself."

Blue almost looks proud, nodding at himself on screen. "I'm passing the phone to the member that was rigged in!"

Noah looks around confused when he's given the phone, laughing alongside his groupmates even though he doesn't fully get it. "Was I rigged in?" Noah asks Jisung quietly. The leader looks at the camera and then at Noah, taking the phone from him with a nod.

"And I'm ending the game!" Jisung announces as the video abruptly ends.

[████████ 100%] — @imjustabeanie !

Within the dewdrops I see…

YOUR MATCHUP FOR GENSHIN IMPACT IS…

✣ baizhu

✣ of everyone within genshin impact, I believe baizhu would be the one most suitable for you. Let me explain.

✣ from your traits, I can surmise that you are a prideful and competitive person when situations involve you, and it seems you take pride in properly safeguarding what you do not wish to be prided into. You want someone who is patient, honest, and understanding— but you also seem to want someone who can match your wit playfully, someone who is enigmatic and interesting to incur your time. Baizhu is all that, and more. He’s a character filled with mystery, someone who you must chase, and someone who would chase you back. He himself cannot be called completely ethical, swindling extremely rich clients out of more money (which they can definitely afford). However, we can see him taking Qiqi in as a hand of kindness. He’s a mild mannered man, and someone with so much gusto and personality - especially with your honesty and good intentions - draws him in deeply. He is an individual of logic too, and can appreciate the reasoning behind your words, and understand your feelings from the similarities and differences in your characters. If you think of yourself as a smoothtalker— you definitely know this guy is too. How else is he garnering more money from rich clients? Yet I believe he would definitely choose his diction correctly to make you feel at ease and open to vulnerability to share your problems with him. And as for you, someone with so much ambition and can understand the importance of goals, he also feels very seen. I think he would find your jokes and passion endearing, and find himself falling without thinking.

✣ He’s someone who can appreciate all your virtues for what they are and help you mitigate your weaknesses.

✣ As for relationship headcanons, the two of you would spar often, always resulting in his loss. He’s someone in a fragile physical state, and seeing you doing what you love, it makes him more rushed. He wants to do what you love with you, and he wants to be by your side and celebrate your victories together. He’s someone who would bring the two of you closer.

✣Baizhu is also a man of schedule. I can imagine him giving you gifts “strategically” throughout the week, or little, useful trinkets throughout the day to cheer you up. He would think of you often, and fondly. The two of you bathe in one another’s presence a lot too… as he knows how it feels to have limited time. There's a lot of dinners and outings, and I believe he would love to give you a peck on the cheek whenever you’re daydreaming.

YOUR MATCHUP FOR KNY IS…

✣ kokushibo

✣ demon slayer was the hard part, but I believe you would have an enemies to lovers situation with Kokushibo. Something about your personal blend of personality would entrance him deeply in my eyes. You would humble him repeatedly with your words, and while that comes with a deep humiliation that makes him wish to compete with you— it also comes with the flutters of attraction.

✣ I am also not sure how to describe this, but the two of you fit together well with your inner competitiveness and pride. That leaves room for the two of you to meet in agreement and understanding, but at the same time, you cannot stand each other at first because of bumping head so often and without restraint. Yet there is a stark difference between morality and ethics by the two of you, because although Kokushibo is the type to pride himself in his logic— he has little of it as shown, when he is caught up within his emotions, and to a severe scale. Someone like you can catch him on his bullshit, and properly (this is very important) pull him out and change him for the better. You are someone who can make him think, and your advice serves as a beacon, while your presence a reminder. Instead of being a demon, I see you being there before he had gotten wedded, and prevented his descent entirely. And like Baizhu, the two of you learn from one another, and lessen the burdens of your weaknesses. Only this time, Kokushibo had more personal empathy with you.

✣ not only does he also nurture a great interest in fighting sports, I think he would be very interested in true crime documentaries as well. Your love for learning also thrills him, as that signifies an aspect of hard work and intellect. He finds that extremely important for a partner, and your personality excites and encourages him. You’re someone who is so unique, and so very hard to impress; built out of many trust, the fruits of your romance is very suited towards your tastes.

✣ he is out and about sometimes for work, and will send you many things, like letters with souvenirs or presents. Ancient aristocratic japanese men of the past also wrote poems and hired musicians to curate songs for many things— and Kokushibo would definitely write you love poems, and beckon musicians to create songs of you or your lives together. These relationships are a blend of liveliness and harmony, falling down like light rain.

constantine headcanons next /j (no seriously take your time with these)

WHY TAKE TIME WHEN I CAN LIST THEM NOW :333

CONSTANTINE HEADCANONS!!

• Born Venezuelan, he's from Maracaibo, Zulia! He's 24 years old and his birthday is March 5, making him a pisces.

• A very calm and chill person, usually he doesn't scream nor starts trouble for nothing. He's also surprisingly good at giving advice.

• Cis and straight man, he's really into girls but struggles to not look freaking awkward when he's rizzing them. Sins of being WAY TOO dramatic and theatrical, so girls are easily scared away by him.

• When he lived in Venezuela his family wasn't rich nor had a lot of money 'til his mother divorced his dad and married a military soldier when Constantine was 12.

• Back them he was more of a hype person, being pretty active and loud. Started being more calm and silent due to losing the sense in a lot of things.

• YES, HE'S DEPRESSED! but his depression is more circumstantial than intrinsic. Having a hard time in his native country as he couldn't do a lot of things he wanted becausd of the limited opportunities, made a certain apathy grow in him (this making him that kinda laid back type of person)

• He was interested in music and writting since he was a child! His parents made sure he could perform all his abilities, however his mother's divorce and other circumstances put a bump in the road.

• He emigrated to the USA when he was 18, pursuing his dream of being a singer and songwriter.

• Since he was 15 he managed a YouTube channel where he uploaded song covers, he took it more seriously when he emigrated.

• Big fan of Enrique Iglesias, Chino y Nacho and also Ricky Martin, also overall acoustic music.

• Despite being a chill person he holds grudges very easily, However, he gets angry "inwardly" more than making a fuss.

• Talks in a very soft voice and with a very poetic diction.

• Bilingual since he's a teenager.

• Constantine is more of a "stage name", his real name is Constancio Torres del Valle.

• Started disliking his real name and overall nationality as he grew famous, he basically pretends to be american as he rejects being seen as "just an immigrant"

• Regarding the previous point, however, when he meets other latinos he tends to easily gain confidence and reveal who he really is.

• Wears a WHOLE LOT of mint perfume.

• Likes clothes with very slim fit as he's kinda proud of his figure.

• (this is more canon than anything) He's actually attractive and he knows that very well.

• Takes really good care of his natural curly hair, will give you a death stare if you try to touch it without his permission.

• He's actually very strong, also goes to gym often.

• Knows how to play the guitar, the flute and the piano. He's also VERY quick witted when it comes to music.

• Started talking therapy at 21, despite this he still has a very unhealthy way to cope, this being alcoholism. He feels good when he's drinking, it helps him stop thinking about how he feels nothing for anything.

• Usually his perfect date is going to a nice bar to share some drinks, still, this is obviously mixed with his alcoholism, making it hard for him to definitely quit :(

• Good Friends with Victor, despite knowing him after he befriended Abraham H, they ended up being pretty close and they support each other in whatever way they can.

• Owns a Toyota Yaris Cross.

• Lives alone in a somewhat big appartment.

• As a boyfriend he would be totally pampering with his partner, taking them to eat often, buying them many things and giving them luxuries thanks to his money. He would also take care of household chores if his partner leads a very busy life.

Phic Phight - Sing-U-Lator

For: @thefalsefangirl @higgidigs @briarlovesu @bibliophilea @idiot-cheesehead-archenemy

Song inspiration: Addict - Vivziepop and Alastor’s Reprise - Vivziepop Vlad and Danny have a proper talk but it's not really a talk or proper

Danny roughs up his hair, frustrated, why did Lancer always have give such open-ended ‘up to your imagination’ projects? Sure Danny didn't lack creativity but his creativity wasn’t exactly… normal. Plus, how was he supposed to make a song prompt without ripping off Ember? Sometimes being friends with a singer was a major double edge sword.

He’s half tempted to just call Vlad, dude gave some solid advice… even if it sometimes seemed slightly sketchy. What would he know about this though? Maybe he writes poetry in his rich person free time?

Thumping his head on his desk a couple of times, fuck it. Flipping out his phone and leaning back, “hey yo, Vladdie”.

“Daniel? Is there an issue. I am rather… preoccupied at the moment”.

Danny snorts at that, “I’d say with what but you're still all mysterious half the time. Anyways, my homework isn’t home working. Know anything to do with music?”.

“… I’m beginning to believe that you have a very concerning sense of timing, my boy. I’ve rather recently… acquired a seemingly ectoplasm infused music generating bow tie”.

Danny blinks hard at that, not for the first time since meeting the man, Danny’s had the feeling Vlad had sticky fingers or something. Sure, Danny also stole stuff… and maybe did so more now than he used to -which now that he thinks about it, might be ever so slightly due to some Vlad-related encouragement. But that’s a thought for another day- but Vlad was way more sticky fingered. “Why? Though I guess that could just make my music prompt for me”.

Danny jumps at a sudden voice, “that could be quiet a good idea. You are rather bad at this”.

Danny whirls around, “eh yo, what the fuck?!?”.  It’s goddamn GhostWriter… Well at least it’s not Walker, or Boxy, or Skulker.

The GhostWriter seemingly ignores the teen, eyeing the paper instead, “you clearly have no love for the written word, as painful as that is, can’t have you embarrassing ghosts with your lack of lyrical diction”, summoning out his keyboard, fingers flying.

Danny groans loudly, “oh come on! Not this shit again”.

“Language, Daniel”.

The GhostWriter narrows his eyes at the phone, “and I would appreciate my artefact returned”.

And suddenly Danny gets hurtled out his window, half shrieking, “VLAAAAAAAD!”, angrily all the while. Granted… he couldn’t blame his -sometimes sketchy- mentor too much; Danny was usually the one who caused issues and Vlad certainly wasn’t immune to trouble making. Vlad yelping, “butter biscuits!”, on the other side of the line at least means this was probably going to be both of their problem(s).

The two halfas groan and push themselves up from the hard smooth ground.

So they weren’t outside on the dirt/grass. Good to know.

Danny grumbles, “I don’t know whether to blame you, blame GhostWriter, blame you, blame myself, blame you, or blame Lancer”.

Vlad giving a very dry reply, “funny, I was thinking something very similar”, then chuckling faintly, “perhaps halfas merely attract ill luck”, glancing around as he stands and brushes himself off, “we appear to be in some sort of cafe”.

“Ah fuck yes, tell me there’s coffee”.

“Language”, Vlad shakes his head, “you consume enough of that stuff to kill you a few times over”.

Danny snorts, “aw, you’d miss me”.

“But of course”. Vlad’s voice is genuinely fond, making Danny mutter, “I know it’s 🎶till death dooooo us part,  but we're already past that phase🎶”.

Both of them stop at that, Danny looks insanely confused and slightly pissed off; Vlad quirks a single eyebrow. Quirking another eyebrow at the bow tie, which is apparently tied around his wrist now, as it starts making music, a electronic piano beat, “I don’t think this is going to end well”.

Danny grumbling, “sounds like the story of my half life. Shit always so seems to be going south since the whole dyin’ while tryin’ to be helpful thing”.

Vlad eyes him, “but 🎶this could be a brand neeeew start🎶”, grimacing a little after because seriously?

Danny huffing, yeah sure the whole dying thing really legit could have effectively given him a new ‘lease on life’ as it were, but instead he’s just spending all of his time fighting and anxiously hiding his shit. Even if he legit honestly likes the way he is now, he had cool powers and stuff. Grumbling, “tell me about it. 🎶I think I deserve some praise for the way that I ammmmmmmm🎶”, gesturing around a bit ridiculously because he might as well just go along with this and no one else was actually here from the looks of It to witness this bullshit. Being a ghost was fucking great okay? Regardless of his parents anti-ghost ectophobia bullshit.

Vlad glances around and shrugs, he’s been involved in stranger, sitting down in a random chair, “🎶despite becoming a ghost, and ending up nearly comatose🎶”; Vlad was still baffled by how severe Danny’s portal-related accident was. The fact that his body survived getting blasted by an entire dimension worth of ectoplasm and being electrocuted by over four lightening bolts worth of electricity was impressive and a bit horrifying.

Danny rolls his eyes at that, flicking his wrist pointedly at Vlad as the bow tie adds in fucking finger snapping to its tune, “🎶I don’t give a daaaaaaaamnnnnnn🎶”, eyeing Vlad with a bit of a smirk, “what about you?”.

Vlad snorts and stands up, “🎶I let my emotions go, and fudge being a sober hoe🎶”. Danny looks a little scandalised by Vlad’s almost swearing but takes the offered flasks because at this point, fuck it.

The GhostWriter is one hundred percent manipulating this into a musical or some shit, and no one wants to deal with that shit fully sober.

The two taking steps, gesturing, and dancing a little while their hands are almost connected due to holding the flask. Singing together, “🎶this is the maaaantra, this is the liiiiife🎶”. Regardless of anything Danny liked the way he was and he damn well knew Vlad did too.

Separating and twirling, still singing together, “🎶we’re playing with our lives noooooow, till the end of every niiiiiiiight 🎶”.

Vlad eyeing his flask, “🎶eventually surrounded by fiiiire🎶”.

Danny laughing, “🎶my fighting passion igniiiights🎶”.

The two eyeing each other and grinning a little, “🎶a hit of the heaven and hell, a helluva hiiiiigh🎶”. At this point they were in this shit together, even if Danny had a feeling that Vlad was a less than stellar influence, and Vlad knew that Danny might one day force him to reconcile with his ‘old friends’.

Vlad turning away, “🎶I’m addddddicted to the madddddness🎶”, he knew damn well all the crime and less than legal stuff he did was something he got a massive rush from, and what did he care if he screwed a few people over for his own personal gain?

Danny turning away as well, “🎶this tooooown is my atlaaaaantis🎶”, this town, Amity Park, was his Everything and he was protective as Hell of it. It was nice that a lot of the town was starting to actually view him as their protector, made him feel like his purpose was actually being seen.

Vlad chuckles, eyeing Danny quickly, “you do a lot of rather illegal things to protect ‘this town’, you know”. Danny chuckling right back, “as if you don’t do the same to satisfy your possessiveness”.

Danny puts up a fist for a fist bump and Vlad rolls his eyes though supplies him with his requested fist bump, the two singing together again, “🎶we’re forever gonna have a fucking/fudging reason to sin🎶”.

Vlad glares at him a little over the swearing but everything help him if he didn't already know that Danny had a bit of a foul mouth and that it was kind of pointless to correct the boy. Besides, Danny’s ‘soul’ or whatever was a lot cleaner than his own, “🎶let me leaaaaaave my soul to burn🎶”,

Danny pointing at him agressively, “🎶I’ll be breathin’ it in🎶”, then making a face, “I mean that your mentorship is actually kinda good, not that I’m going to literally breath in your burnt ashes, what the fuck GhostWriter”, and glares at the ceiling; faint ghostly laughter could be heard.

Vlad can’t help grinning at that a little, “🎶and I’m addiiiicted to that feeeeeeling🎶”.

Danny gesturing up, “🎶then get hiiiiiigher than the ceiiiiiling🎶”.

Vlad nods curtly, because as not harmful as this was, it was still annoying.

The Ghostwriters voice comes down from the ceiling, “🎶and I’m neeeever gonna want this feeling to end, just conceeeeede and give in to you inner demons again🎶”.  Vlad fires a blast at the ceiling while the bow tie adds in a metallic drum beat for a bit before slowing to a more soft sound.

Danny eyes Vlad a little, “you know I know what you ‘inner demons’ are at this point, right? Your thing for mom?”, cringing and rubbing his neck, “and I mean sure,  🎶yeah, you fell in loooove. But-🎶”, gesturing at the flask, “🎶-you fell deeper in a piiit🎶”.

Vlad blinks, sure he knew Daniel would figure that out eventually but this was definitely not how he wanted that to come out. But what were ghosts if not their past regrets and obsessions? He couldn’t give up on her, not yet, maybe not ever. Throwing a hand out to the side and trying to hide that that comment hurt a little, “well 🎶Death didn’t get us aaabooove. So count your blessing because this is it🎶”, that came out more bitter than he really meant it.

Danny quirks an eyebrow at him and moving to get a bit in his face, “🎶sooooo you’re not letting goooOooOOOOoooOoo🎶?”.

Vlad shrugs, taking a swig from his flask and eyeing the musical bow tie with contempt, “🎶so what if I misbehave🎶”.

Danny huffing, crossing his arms, “🎶I guess it’s what everybody craves🎶”, then pointing at Vlad, “but, 🎶look around and you’ll already knooooOoOooOOOoow🎶”, pausing and rubbing his temples, “it ain’t gonna work out for you, you know”.

Vlad shrugs more vulnerably than he really means to, “I know, I really do. You think I can’t tell, Daniel? Meeting you and seeing them again makes that so clear. But-”, eyeing the boy, “-an apprentice changes a mentor as much as a mentor changes their apprentice”, holding out a hand, “🎶so, come if you’re feeling brave, and fancy yourself a mentor🎶”.  Bow tie beat picking back up again.

Danny chuckles, okay Vlad’s thing for mom was weird and would never work out but if Vlad was content to redirect himself towards mentoring Danny himself then who was Danny to argue against that? Heck! It was probably a really good thing, plus Vlad was -maybe? Possibly?- morally questionable enough that he wouldn’t take Danny’s shit but also wouldn’t question him about being socially unacceptable. “🎶you want it, I got it. See what you liiiikeeeeEEEeeEe🎶”.

Vlad nods, when he first met Danny and realised what he was, a fellow halfa, it was just a maze of endless possibilities. When he realised that Daniel not only formed as a ghost at a far higher ectoplasmic level but also had more room for growth, he was amazing. Daniel could beat Pariah some day, if he tried. Having that boy as his was far too tempting and far more enticing than any amount of money or Maddie. Daniel could take the world if he wanted, and Vlad could guide that, could stand beside him, “🎶we could have it allllllllll, by the end of any niiight🎶”. If Daniel tried he could probably take over the entire Infinite Realm today if he so desired.

Danny snorts, waving him off, “I can’t tell if you mean this world or the afterlife. But here it would be, 🎶your money and power🎶 and in the ghost zone it would definitely be, 🎶my sinful deliiiight🎶”, chuckling, “you know how much a lot of ghosts hate me at this point”. Him chuckling again, “🎶I’mma hit of that heaven and hell, a helluva hiiiiiigh🎶”.

Vlad can’t help chuckling himself at that, Daniel had managed to piss of an impressive amount of ghosts in a very short amount of time, “🎶it’s like you’re addiiiiicted to the maaaadeness🎶”.

Danny waving him off, “🎶this tooooown will always be my atlaaaaantis🎶”.

Vlad ruffles up his hair, “🎶we’re forever gonna have a fudging reason to sin🎶”.

Danny collapsing over a table dramatically, “🎶let me leave my soul to burn, I’ll be breathing it in🎶”; which Vlad rolls his eyes at.

Vlad pokes the boys forehead, “🎶you’re addiiiicted to the feeeeeeling🎶”, Daniel was more combative than Vlad would actually like. Obviously he didn’t really have to worry about Daniel getting hurt but it really was like he was addicted to getting into fist fights sometimes.

Danny bats his finger/hand off, “have you seen the amount of ghosts that show up to cause problems? It’s a perfect excuse to 🎶get hiiigheeer than the ceeeiliing, and I’m never gonna want that fucking feeling to end🎶”.

Vlad sticks his hands out to the side, “🎶so you’ll just concede and give into your feelings again🎶?”.

Danny glares at him and pushes himself up from laying down on the table, “oh like you don’t constantly, 🎶concede and give into your inner demons again🎶”.

The two stare at each other for a bit, definitely recognising that they were both a bit fucked up and their mentorship/apprenticeship thing was extremely all kinds of fucked up. But neither of them could deny that it was good, they bounced off of each other and called out each others shit. They were both better for it. Vlad’s Obsession over Maddie had dwindled some and Danny had an actual adult to turn to. It was good, they both needed this more than either one was willing to admit.

Then the GhostWriter decides to be an asshole again, piping up from the ceiling again, “🎶you should never want this feeling to end. Just concede and give into your inner ghosts again🎶”.

Danny and Vlad both glare at the ceiling, Vlad firing off a pink ecto-blast for the point of it, the bow tie giving a more mellow beat in response like it was mad at them.

Danny eyeing Vlad, “you really have a problem with my mom,  huh?”.

Vlad rubbing a hand down his face, “I used to think that if it wasn’t for my accident we would have wound up together but…”.

“Mom and dad love each other?���.

“Indeed. Though well, I am a ghost”, looking at Daniel, “you and I both know how hard letting go can be. It’s like 🎶I’m addiiiicted to the soooorrroooowww🎶”.

Danny nodding, leaning against one of the tables, “you'll get there, I think. But yeah, it’s like with all the fights I pick even, 🎶when the buzz ends by tomorrow🎶 and every fight after that, 🎶is another rush of poison flowing into my veins🎶”.

Vlad sighing, “giving both of us 🎶a dose of pleasure that resides by the pain🎶”, craning his neck, “🎶I’m addiiiicted🎶”.

Danny pushing himself up off the tables and gesturing agressively at the windows leading out to Amity Park, “🎶I’m deeepeendaaaant🎶”.

Vlad runs a hand through his hair, smiling a little, “🎶looking awwwwwwsome🎶”. While Daniel leans against the cafe/club window, “🎶feeling heeeelpleeess🎶”.  Vlad glancing back at the teen and not for the first time realising that Daniel, maybe, wasn’t really okay… and honestly? Neither was he. Vlad sighing and walking over to the boy, “🎶I knooooooow I’m raising cain by every highway in hell🎶”, he was thinking that maybe he could move and become the mayor here, “🎶maybe things won’t be so terrible inside this home town🎶”; it would be good for Daniel and maybe it was a change that Vlad himself needed.

Danny jerks while the bow tie tune picks up again in a more fancy dancing manner, “you’re thinking of moving here?”. Vlad nods, so Danny continues, “I think that would be good, honestly. 🎶’cause we’re both one of a kind🎶”, Danny making a mocking gesture at him, “and I’m sure I can 🎶give a burning fool a place to dwell🎶”.

Vlad grabbing his hand an twirling him around ridiculously, “🎶and your ideals are just laughable, but hey kid what the Hell. We’re both charming ghost beaux🎶”.

Danny laughing and going along with the twirling, “🎶’cause inside of both of us is just a lost cause🎶”.

Vlad chuckling right back, “🎶but we’ll dress us up for now with a smile🎶”.

The GhostWriter adding in, “🎶a wicked smile🎶”, with an eerie laugh.

Vlad nods to himself, officially making his decision. This town could not survive with just Daniel and was definitely going to need someone with deep pockets who could manipulate the government into giving them money for all the insane damages. “🎶I’ll show these simpletons some proper class and styyyyyyleee🎶”.

Danny snorting, “🎶and I’ll chlorinate your closets with some punny flair🎶”. That feels ominous in Vlad’s opinion.

They nod at each other, speaking in unison, “🎶here in this spooooooooky town, we’re sure our plan is sound🎶”, both of them pointing up, “🎶and our little annoyance will be fooooouuuuund🎶”, which promptly results in the GhostWriter falling through the ceiling due to the songs/GhostWriters keyboards manipulation of reality, and the two halfas outright pounce on him.

His shriek is very girly and their maniacal laughs are very… maniacal.

Danny stuffing the ghost in his thermos and ‘Vlad’s’ artefact too for good measure after yanking it off the other man’s wrist. “So you’re really going to just, try to become mayor here and move?”.

“There’s not much else for me to do with my time and someone needs to keep an eye on you”, Vlad sighing, “and maybe being more exposed to the way Maddie really is will help things”.

Danny chuckles, “good vampiric mentor”.

“I will decide you need a lesson in endurance”.

“Oh be still my fucking tits!”.

“Daniel!”.

Danny just pouts exaggeratedly at him as they try to sneak out of the restaurant/cafe/club without being noticed. That predictably doesn’t go as planned, with Valerie poking her head around, “I have a lot of questions about that opera bullshit”. Oh Ancients, she saw that shit.

Vlad puts up his hands, “now Valerie-”. But Danny cuts him off, dramatically putting a hand to his chest, “are you cheating on me”; this situation was beyond un-fucking-salavagable. Making both his mentor and his friend/fellow ghost hunter look at him like they both bit lemons. Danny rolling his eyes, “what? The only reason for Vladdie to not be super freaked out is if Valerie here already knew about him and no way he would tell anyone other than an apprentice or maybe close friend”.

Vlad shrugs very awkwardly, “I’m not one to put all my eggs in one basket”. Both Valerie and Danny glare a bit murderously, before punching him in the face. Vlad just sighs, “I suppose I deserved that”.

Both of them snapping, “you think?!?”.

Valerie looking at Danny, “who did you even think got me into this?”.

Danny shrugs, “I thought you were just following spontaneous murderous desire all on your lonesome”.

“You’re a fucking idiot”.

Vlad sighing, “yes, and a fool that should dispose of a certain someone before he causes us any more issues”. Danny rolls his eyes, “at least I got help with my project out of this… kinda”, then actually moves to meander off like he’s told, shouting behind himself, “still good for training tonight?!”.

Vlad eyes Valerie, who shrugs, so Vlad shouts back, “as always, though you’ll have a sparring partner this time and finish that project first! I don’t want you wasting this evenings absolute mess!”.  Danny holds up double thumbs up before tripping over his own feet and falling to the ground flat on his face.

Valerie facepalms, “what have I gotten myself into?”.

---

Mr. Lancer was later both very confused and impressed with the… odd direction of Daniel’s song prompt project. It was like one part theatrical musical, one part taking out some kind of issue(s) with song, and one part spite? It was creative though, which is what he asked for. Full marks and maybe a side note about seeing the school therapist.

End.

Prompts: Write a fic inspired from any song released in the last six years. and Danny has to go to Vlad for help and Lancer gives the class a project that Danny finds a very ghostly solution to. and Try as he might, Danny can’t think of a prompt for his creative writing homework. So Ghost Writer decides to step in, and do the writing for him. Shenanigans ensue. and AU where Vlad isn't blatantly evil in Bitter Reunions, and Danny initially sees no reason not to accept his mentorship and Vlad was starting to regret stealing his current artifact.

🍳🤡🗣️ for isao? :3

As usual, you ask for Isao ♥ Thanks to this, i have a dumb story for him now !

[MISC ASK MEME]

🍳 - How well can they cook?

Very good! He always liked to eat well, watched his mother for years and then helped her. But it was also one of the rare father/son moments he was able to have with Takemura. The few evenings he had off he spent with his adopted children, and he made a point of cooking. Takemura taught Isao how to cut thin slices of food, how to watch the cooking so that it wasn't overcooked, how to choose the right spices… And today, Isao continues to cook for himself with the same dedication, even though good ingredients are expensive in NC. Because he loves good food, but also because it calms him down.

If he invites you to dinner, you'll eat very well!

🤡 - What’s something dumb they’re embarrassed about?

He'll tell you he has nothing to be ashamed of, that he knows how to behave! Of course he'll never tell this story: Oda and Isao are two men who can't agree. Too similar and too eager to attract the attention from their mentor, Takemura. They fight a cold war, respecting the minimum of politeness, but with no sign of respect, in a constant duel of glances… They end up fighting when Hanako Arsaka visits one of their Kyoto offices. Imagine two Arasaka soldiers dressed for an official event, fighting near an emergency door like two idiots. They returned to their positions, Isao with a badly healed cut and a black eye, Oda with a bruised jaw and a missing tooth.

They were each suspended for 2 weeks for their conduct, and this is still recorded in their files!

🗣️ - How do they handle public speaking?

Ah ah. Seriously, though, does he look like he'd speak in public?

Although he has excellent diction and a calm voice, Isao hates being watched, preferring to be a man in the shadows. It makes him nervous because he's afraid of stammering or making a fool of himself. One of the few times he has spoken in public was at the graduation ceremony at Arasaka Academy in Tokyo, when Mieko graduated. Some former Sibling students were due to give a speech and Mieko suggested her brother. He didn't sleep a wink the days before, rereading his speech. The look in his eyes and a few uncontrolled movements betrayed his nervousness. And the speech? Very good, well written, well read, no mistakes. Please don't ask him to do it again…

abstaining from voting in the smikedown because as a lifelong R.E.M. fan I want Stipe to win but also it's solely an attractiveness tournament and I love men with long beautiful hair too much

The pain! The struggle! The horror! Poor Stipe and his bald head.

Also I cannot thank you enough for the term Smikedown. It's so beautiful and rare like a dictional shiny pokemon

A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (Penguin Classics) A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (Penguin Classics) Paperback – February 28, 1972 by Mark Twain (Author),‎ Justin Kaplan (Introduction) --Book Condition: USED/RARE in very good condition in spite of age (beige pages). Light wear (Scratch/fold mark) When Connecticut mechanic and foreman Hank Morgan is knocked unconscious, he wakes not to the familiar scenes of nineteenth-century America but to the bewildering sights and sounds of sixth-century Camelot. Although confused at first and quickly imprisoned, he soon realises that his knowledge of the future can transform his fate. Correctly predicting a solar eclipse from inside his prison cell, Morgan terrifies the people of England into releasing him and swiftly establishes himself as the most powerful magician in the land, stronger than Merlin and greatly admired by Arthur himself. But the Connecticut Yankee wishes for more than simply a place at the Round Table. Soon, he begins a far greater struggle Editorial Reviews From School Library Journal Gr 5 Up-While Mark Twain is most often identified with his childhood home on the Mississippi, he wrote many of his enduring classics during the years he lived in Hartford, Connecticut. He had come a long way from Hannibal when he focused his irreverent humor on medieval tales, and wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. The hit on the head that sent protagonist Hank Morgan back through 13 centuries did not affect his natural resourcefulness. Using his knowledge of an upcoming eclipse, Hank escapes a death sentence, and secures an important position at court. Gradually, he introduces 19th century technology so the clever Morgan soon has an easy life. That does not stop him from making disparaging, tongue-in-cheek remarks about the inequalities and imperfections of life in Camelot. Twain weaves many of the well-known Arthurian characters into his story, and he includes a pitched battle between Morgan's men and the nobility. Kenneth Jay's narration is a mix of good-natured bonhomie for Hank and more formal diction for the arcane Olde English speakers. Appropriate music is used throughout to indicate story breaks and add authenticity to scenes. This good quality recording is enhanced by useful liner notes and an attractive case. Younger listeners may need explanations of less familiar words, and some knowledge of the Knights of the Round Table will be helpful. Libraries completing an audiobook collection of Twain titles will enjoy this nice, but not necessary, abridgement. Barbara Wysocki, Cora J.

So the tags said “in the manga he says ‘person’” but he actually also said that in the anime! In fact, the translator for the subtitle was called out for it and was being annoying ab it afterward, despite the fact that changing the diction of this scene makes it seem like he’s in love with Tsumiki(his sister) instead of communicating that that specific trait of hers (and of Yuuji’s, most notably and ironically) is a quality he’s attracted to.

Also! Unshakable character is one way to translate this, but notably he says yuruginai ningensei. Yuruginai means firm or steady, so unshakeable or unwavering is a good translation.

Now, ningensei is human character. It can mean personality, but more likely than that, it’s personhood. It’s the quality of being human.

So yeah, Yuuji meaning Unwavering Humanity and his line being “as long as they have Yuruginai Ningensei—Unwavering Humanity…”

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk where I nerd out about Japanese

[dojae-huh]

Oooh I wanted to talk about Lastart with someone, glad you're also tuned in! I really like the combination of Yusion, their performance wasn't the best but somehow I'm really fond of the two 💓 As for my current picks: Anderson and Riku

Anderson looks like he has one foot set in NCT already, so not much to say about him 😂 I want to see what role he will take in a performance, vocals or rap, but his stage presence is already enough to attract attention.

Riku to me was outstanding! Along with Ryu, who trained for 2 weeks, both of them delivered a very solid performance. I could feels some emotion in the way the rap and sing, it was refreshing to see such a performance in midst of the dancing. Riku's diction was clear, his voice was unique enough to be Neo, and he did say he's in a bad condition that day so I'm excited to see what he'll bring in future eps!

Jungmin's voice was superb and fitting with my rock subunit agenda, his smile was blinding what a charming character! His partner Minjae was a good vocalist too, SM is really good at finding these talents tbh. Kassho's visuals were very Neo, he would make a really good model one day. Heitetsu I only remember his worm dance 😂 I would like to see more of what Ryo could do, since he was really overshadowed by Anderson in their performance. The Chewing Gum boys were too cute and they did very well covering the song too, I just wish they weren't too young 😭 there should be another dream-like unit for them.

Excited for the next performances !! There's no buzz on twitter about it so I'm pouring all thoughts here haha

Let's talk, let's talk, we are getting last fixed addition to the family afterall. The future OT29 (yes, I'm counting the ex-members).

Yusion already has a couple name? They are going to be shipped like SungTaro are, aren't they?

They are cute, very SM visual, I did expect them to be better technically, they were hinted very early on and were supposed to join Shotaro, the bar for them should be higher than for the rest.

Anderson is sociable and achieves set goals. He could be a neutral ground between Koreans and Japanese, be a mediator if any tension arises. He had the best stage presence as well. Maybe not nessesary that of an idol, but that's adjustable.

SM will judge not only pure talent but compatibility with the other members and the concept they have in mind. There should be performances together with Yuushi and Sion.

I like Haruta, he seems to have a nice personality and he was expressive with the upper part of his body. Hard to see him as a neo though. Maybe he'll have a chance to prove me wrong.

Aside from the voice, I like Jungmin's charm, he looks open and inviting, which is a plus for a Japanese in a Korean group. Shotaro was met with a lot of hate due to his nationality in the beginning but won fans over thanks to his character. A calm but cheerful character is also a plus for an idol. Like Karina has a very suitable personality. The fame doesn't get to her head, she stays hardworking and level-headed.

Minjae reminds me Seventeen's DK (I'm a very casual listener of the group, so don't know members well). Can see an idol, but not a neo yet.

Heitetsu is a clear "no" for me (I like his name though), Kassho has an attidute that is benefitial for an idol, makes them entertaining to watch. Kassho is not a dancer, judging by his interview, let's see how good of a singer/rapper he is.

It is interesting SM chose another trainee (Ryu) with a voice more suited for a rock group than an idol one. Maybe they do have a ready image for the unit? Jungmin, Minjae and Ryo - all have that scratchiness to their voices, they all should match.

I think Sakuya is still an option for the unit. The concept made him look even younger, than he is, otherwise he had his growth spurt already, his voice deepened. Depends on his skill level and versatility. 127 has a bigger age gap between SunMoon than these trainees.
