Fluff alphabet- Minato

(I'm gonna do the fluff alphabets before any of the nsfw ones :3 I'll probably post these alphabets as extras while I wait for asks)

a = affection (how affectionate are they?)

Minato doesn't have any romantic relationship experience and I think Minato would be generally touch starved At least in the beginning of the relationship he'd be really awkward when it comes to affection but I think he'd open up more with time. Not super affectionate though, not physically anyways.

b = beginning (what was the beginning of your relationship like?)

Once again, super awkward. He has no experience so he has no clue what to do. He'd probably try to look up things couples do, maybe ask his grandparents for advice as a last resort because he can't handle the teasing he gets from them.

c = cuddles (do they enjoy cuddling? how would they cuddle?)

He does enjoy cuddling! He doesn't care about who's the big spoon or not but he really enjoys holding onto you because it makes him feel like he can protect you more easily. Although he likes the warm feeling and the butterflies swarming in his stomach that being held gives him.

d = domestic (what’s domestic life with them like? do they plan on settling down?)

He's had to take care of his parents and his grandparents for as long as he can remember, he just considers taking care of others to be his thing, he enjoys it y'know? He wakes up early to cook breakfast, has a calendar he marks every night, a planner where he writes down everything, has a schedule he goes by, he's very organized and healthy and he'll use that to take care of you. Encourages you to go to sleep early, eat three meals a day, do some excise like going out on walks, if you take medicine he's reminding you to take it. He makes a schedule for you as well and puts you in his, you're a huge part of his life. He would love to settle down with you but he's down to do whatever you want to, as long as you two are together, he's overjoyed.

e = ending (if you were to break up, how would it go?)

I know I've said it before and I will continue to say it, Minato is the least yandere out of everyone else. He'll respect your decision, he just hopes that you two can still be friends, he doesn't want to lose you entirely. If he were to lose you entirely I think that's when the yandere tendencies really show. Ever since the beginning of your relationship he's always checked up on you to make sure you were okay, after you cut him out of your life completely he still checks up on you often but now it's more so in the shadows. He probably does it even more since he can't outright be by your side to protect you.

f = favorite (what’s their favorite thing to do with you?)

Despite the constant embarrassing remarks his grandparents make about you two, he really loves when you come over and hang out with him and his grandparents. It's his favorite people all in the same room together, you feel like a major part of the family. He wants the most important people in his life to get along so he loves it when you come over and everyone is talking and playing games and eating dinner together, he adores those moments.

g = gentle (how gentle are they, psychically, and emotionally?)

EXTREMELY gentle! He knows his height and appearance can be intimidating so he's really gentle to try and help make people not afraid of him, most people don't typically give him a chance, but you did sooooo. He very unsure where his hands should go. Like, is holding your hand okay? What about pulling you just a little closer to him, or is that too rough? What about when he hugs you, should his arms be higher up or closer to your waist? He doesn't know so his hands are shaky, unsure, and gentle with you. He's pretty clueless when it comes to emotions honestly, he can't read you like how Haruto can and so if you want something you'll need to be direct with him. But he's never rude on purpose if he is rude, he always tries to sound gentle while still being somewhat direct.

h = hugs (how do they feel about hugs? how often do they happen? what are their hugs like?)

Loves hugs! He loves holding you and loves being held. Much like with cuddling, when he hugs you he feels like it's easier to protect you, like you're safe in his arms. In the beginning of your relationship, they probably wouldn't happen much, but I think with time they'd happen more and more. He always tries to hug you gently but if maybe you two haven't seen each other in a while or anything happens to you he'll hug you a bit tighter. He's a big dude so his hugs kinda engulf you <3

i = i love you (when do they first say it? how often is it said?)

He knows he loves you way before saying it. Honestly he most likely won't say it until after you've said it. If he does say it before you then it would probably happen when he thought you were sleeping or maybe something happened and he thought he was going to lose you, he'll say it then. After the first time it's said he'll say it to you every morning, every night, and every time you two have to separate from each other.

j = jealousy (are they the jealous type? how jealous do they get? how do they act when they’re jealous?)

Minato does get jealous but not super often. Like he knows you have friends like Aki and Haruto and he's happy you have friends. I think he'd get jealous of certain aspects though. Like how Haruto can read you and know what you want, he wishes he could do that for you. Or if any of your friends are touchy with you just so casually, he'll wish he could touch you as casually like that. Or if you're more comfortable around someone else then you are with him, he'll wish you were that comfortable around him. Gets jealous when you talk to someone more then him because he wants to talk to you more. Rarely does he get jealous of people just talking to you but if you don't give Minato a bit of attention he'll get jealous. He'll glare at the other person without realizing and stick close to your side, holding your hand. He'd play it off as he didn't get good vibes from that person and that he was just protecting you.

k = kisses (what are their kisses like? how often do they happen? where do they like to kiss you? where do they like to be kissed?)

Much like him, his kisses are gentle and unsure. With time and practice his kisses will get more confident but they remain gentle. They don’t happen much at first but they eventually become an every day thing. After every "I love you" he presses a little kiss to your face. He likes to kiss you on your forehead, nose, or lips and he likes to be kissed in the same areas.

l = language (what’s their love language?)

Quality time and acts of service are his main love languages and his secondary one is words of affirmation. Loves just being in your presence, it's instant relief. He loves doing things for you, I said a bit of in in Domestic, but he puts you in his schedule, makes sure you're taking care of yourself. He really likes word of affirmation but he's just not the best with it.

m = morning (what are mornings like with them?)

He probably wakes up earlier then most people. He won't wake you up when he wakes up but he likes to make sure you're up by at least 11:30. He probably watches you sleep for a little, thinking about how lucky he is to be dating you. He makes breakfast for him and his grandparents, making sure they take their medication. When you wake up he smiles upon seeing you, he'll say good morning and give you little kiss. He'll make you breakfast as well :3

n = night (what are nights like with them?)

He goes to sleep early and will encourage you to go to sleep early as well. He'll kiss you goodnight after telling you he loves you. If your sleep schedule is really bad then he'll set an alarm for like 1 or 2 in the morning and make you go to sleep then. Sleeping with him is kind of a pain though because of his sleeping habits.

o = open (are they an open book or more closed off?)

He doesn't mean to be closed off, he just genuinely doesn't try to think about his issues. If he contemplates how his life has been thus far it makes him upset so he just represses and stuff. He doesn't want to reject you trying to know more about him but he just hates reliving his childhood. He'll have to tell you things more slowly.

p = patience (how easily angered are they?)

It kind of depends on the situation. Typically he doesn't get mad at you and when he does it's more like concern. Like lets say maybe you did something dangerous and possibly life threatening, he's pretty upset that you put yourself in a situation like that but he's mostly concerned and just wants you to be safe and value yourself more. But as long as you aren't doing anything dangerous he doesn't get mad often.

q = quizzes (how much do they remember about you? do they remember every little detail or are they forgetful?)

He has written stuff down that you tell him so that he doesn't forget. So things like favorite color, favorite foods, etc etc he has memorized for things like gifts or dates. When you tell him anything from your home life he thinks about it a lot, if it's something happy then it makes him happy and if it was a bad experience he thinks about how much that must've hurt you and it makes him sad. He also has things like your birthday, important anniversaries, medicine schedule all written down in his planner and calendar.

r = remember (what’s their favorite moment in your relationship?)

Honestly, any time you would go over to his place and hang out with him and his grandparents are some of his favorite moments. It's all of his favorite people in the same room having fun and getting to know each other. The first time you went over to his place was when you two first got to really know more about each other so whenever you come over he just remembers that moment and smiles.

s = security (how protective are they? do they like being protected?)

Minato is very VERY protective. He's pretty protective of everyone because he doesn't really like violence but he gets REALLY protective when its someone that's really important to him, like you. He doesn't really feel the need to be protected but when he is, he can't deny it feels nice to be be cared for.

t = try (how much effort do they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, etc.?)

He puts in a lot of effort usually, but it also kinda depends on the date. Sometimes he wants to have a stay at home date y'know, he'll make an at home fancy dinner date or a really cozy movie date. He'll spend HOURS looking up date spots for you two to enjoy. Puts his all into anniversaries and birthdays, only the best for you. Much like in Remember when he wrote down stuff you like for gifts, he does put effort into his gifts, he's not really crafty so he just buys stuff that reminds him of you.

u = ugly (what’s a bad habit/trait of theirs?)

Taking care of others before himself. He finds pride and joy in taking care of others but he often forgets to do things for himself. He mostly does everything for other people and in the end he can end up getting easily used by others. He's gotten a lot better at taking care of himself but no matter what he will always put other people before himself. If he fails at taking care of people he often blames himself, thinking that maybe he could've done more and that it was his fault.

v = value (what’s their biggest priority regarding you in your relationship? ex: your safety, your happiness, etc.)

I think your safety is probably the biggest priority for him. Your safety is the reason why you two became close and eventually something more. As long as you're okay, he will be okay. He really values everything though.

w = whole (do they feel incomplete without you?)

Definitely! But I think unlike the other Li's Minato can eventually move on. Will it take a long time, absolutely, but I think he's capable of doing a lot of self-reflection and will realize that everything will be okay and that there's other people. But it also depends on the situation. If you two stay friends after breaking up then it's easier to accept moving on and feeling whole "without" you. If you die then it's over for Minato and he won't move on at all.

x = xtra (random headcanon!)

His grandparents are his biggest supporters! Minato has been living with them since he was 11 after certain events happened at home. His grandparents are still very much and love and see a lot of themselves in Minato and you and so they constantly tease Minato for his obvious crush on you. They're his wingman and wingwoman, trying to help Minato confess or push you to realize Minato's feelings and confess yourself. Don't let them know that you confessed to Minato, Minato will never hear the end of their teasing.

y = yearn (what’s something they want from you but will never admit to?)

Maybe perhaps wants your approval to get like 3-5 dogs, all corgi's LMAO. He would never put that on you cause animals are a lot of work, he's happy as long as he's allowed to have 1. He just wants at least ONE fur baby. Of course if you want a different animal then like yuh, as long as the proper research is done before you two get it :)

z = zzz (what’s a sleep habit of theirs?)

He goes to sleep early and wakes up early. He sleeps in pajama pants most nights but during nights where it is just too hot he'll sleep in just his boxers. He can't go to sleep without being covered by blankets(at least his upper body needs to be covered) but during the night he will push the blankets off of himself. He also sleeps on his back and kinda starfishes, his body temperature is too warm to be curled up.

One makes him up, so the other can break him down.

This is a little terrifying but hello!! Posted my first fic on ao3!! I would've saved the illustrations for the fic's eyes only, but I'm too happy with them haha. Hope you'll still go on to read regardless!!

As always, my thoughts and progress, since I can't help myself:

I'm soooooo proud of these. I never ever really do dramatic lighting, so I'm really surprised that I pulled it off.

It's surreal actually posting this because for a while, I've thought about how if I ever post a fic, I'll have to make illustrations too because I can't do anything not full force. Look at me now! I'm shocked. Also didn't think I'd finish it tonight, but here it sits before you nevertheless(though as always, I'm writing this past my bedtime before class, time efficient as always.) So with that being said, here are some notes, though if I had known I'd be writing this so soon, I would've prepared more lol.

First of all, I hope it's clear both of these are Mark's perception. Gah, the fact that his face is the only one you can see clearly. The first is obviously him unwillingly fantasizing about what exactly went down last night.

Aghhhhh the difference in colors and settings of the two drawings is so important to me. The warmth and intimacy of the bed behind curtains in the first one, and the coldness and openess of the second. It's so clear Mark feels like he's been distanced, like he's been ousted. It's like he's been thrown outside on a cold winter's day, no longer able to feel the heat from the comfortable warm stove inside.

Mark was probably assigned to Seb bcs he has a much greater appreciation for the Spanish etiquette, which Seb has very little interest in. He'll abide by it when he absolutely has to. But he's just a very non-typical Emperor. People find it charming so it's not a public death sentence for him, but it is an issue. Thus, Mark is there to keep him in line. Though important to note that when Fernando, who has an equal if not greater respect for the showmanship of etiquette, realizes Mark is interested in that as well, they start warming up to each other.

The inherent disrespect of Fernando just. Throwing Seb's clothing onto the floor. Meanwhile he probably took like, 20 minutes folding his up(that's what Seb was gonna tell Mark at the end of the fic.) Borderline ripping off Seb's clothes only to edge him. Its not even like the ripping off the clothes is because of passion or anything, he's deliberately being an asshole. Don't worry Nandl, Seb's turned on by it!

So sorry to marknando fans if their dynamic feels like a complete 180 haha. Its not like I'm like, they actually hate each other!! It's just their relationship under completely different circumstances. They're like two dogs in a dog fight, they don't have any real reason to hate each other, but they're put against each other regardless. They don't understand their hatred, just know that they have it and that they're supposed to have it. The inherent hatred the mistress has for the spouse, and vice versa. If they actually were able to talk without barriers, they'd realize they actually get along pretty well. They kinda just hate each other because of their respective relationships to Seb. And then there's Seb who's mostly completely oblivious to his effect, though of course plays with it a bit.

Seb's marriage completely recontextualizes their relationship in Mark's eyes. Though there's something incredibly sado-masochistic about the way he can't blame Seb for it at all. He's a loyal dog after all. But when it was just them, he was obviously Seb's main companion and lover. Seb definitely slept with people on the side, but Mark brushed that off: 1. Bcs its very period typical. 2. He was the main, they were the side, what more needs to be said! But now *he's* the side piece, and is left wondering if their relationship was down to proximity alone. Not to pull a Mark and completely excuse Seb, but it's not. Just very different perceptions of love and relationships. And again, as I've mentioned before, he was raised to always be the most important person in the room, so he obviously has very different understandings, especially since he's always the center.

NANDL!!!!!! In my Habsburg book I've been reading lately, they randomly referred to one of them affectionately as "Nandl" and it's stuck in my head ever since. Can we start a movement to canonize that as an official Fernando nickname? I'm sooooo fond of it, I litrally ended the fic that way just so I could shoehorn that nickname in.

Speaking of the ending. It was really tough, I almost wanted to have Fernando burst in, looking for his ring, and then coming across whatever that is. But I didn't want to disrupt their moment anymore, it felt cruel. Though shame I couldn't mention that the reason why Seb's pants are nowhere to be found is because Fernando accidentally put them on and didn't realize till he was out of the room.

*I FORGOT TO POINT OUT ONE OF MY FAVORITE PARTS! Truly the danger of writing a post while falling asleep. There's something so incredibly funny to me the way they're talking so refined and then Seb just throws out: "that guy." It's a way to show his own disrespect of Fernando, not even using his name, implying he's just some guy(nur ein Kerl.) I laughed writing it cause it reminds me of the random dry humor anecdotes I've read lately.

Wild how we know that Elizabeth Woodville was officially appointed to royal councils in her own right during her husband’s reign and fortified the Tower of London in preparation of a siege while 8-months pregnant and had forces gathering at Westminster “in the queen’s name” in 1483 – only for NONE of these things to be even included, let alone explored, in the vast majority of scholarship and historical novels involving her.

asking nerd Bakugou to give you a ‘pearl necklace’ and he starts grumbling about you tryna drain him dry but instead of pulling out his cock, he pulls out his phone to actually search for a pearl necklace </3

and to both his surprise and embarrassment, his phone is quickly tossed away in favor of you showing him what you’re actually asking for. he’s not mad though—not when you end up looking so pretty covered in white, grinning, and asking for another necklace <3

yes i'm rooting for m*leven breakup because byler is neat but mostly? i'm rooting for m*leven breakup for the sake of el and mike.

to me, their romance was always a puppy love born out of a combination of social pressures, naïve curiosity, and a lack of true understanding regarding intimacy and romantic love and what it really is. it was real in that they do truly, deeply care about each other and they are close friends, maybe even shared an attraction, but a maturing romance is so much more than that. they've grown up and out of being boyfriend/girlfriend, and that's okay! i think television/film needs to show more often that most of us don't have definite "soulmates" or first childhood loves that we spend our whole lives with. it doesn't mean these relationships meant nothing and didn't impact us, it just means they've run their course and that something else is in the cards, and this is part of life!

i've always felt el was at her best and most confident self when broken up with mike, discovering who she was and what she liked alongside another girl her age instead of just relying on mike for mentorship on how to live in the real world. she deserves more of an opportunity to find herself, her autonomy, and her independence, and to love who she is, and she's made it clear she's felt insecure in the relationship with mike because she isn't being loved and understood the way she wants, needs, and deserves from someone who is her partner.

also, it's okay if mike doesn't love her in "the way he should". he is not obligated to love her romantically and stay in a relationship with her just because she's a girl, because she "needed someone", or because he cares about her a lot. he shouldn't be pressured into a romance if it's not truly coming from his heart. he deserves freedom to find out and honour who he is, too, instead of just staying in his non-functional first relationship — one he got into as a child, essentially — and defining himself that way because it's what's expected when a boy and a girl are close. he loves her in some way, yes, but it's okay if he doesn't feel comfortable or secure being her boyfriend anymore, for whatever reason that is. he's felt insecure too, and that's valid and it matters.

they are their own people and are steadily growing and changing every day. they need time to figure out who those people are, and it's become clear (at least in my opinion) that those people aren't meant to be a couple at this stage.

they deserve freedom. they deserve to grow up and be authentic to themselves and not feel like they need to lie for the sake of a relationship. they deserve to move on from this version of their relationship that isn't making them happy and rekindle the best part of their bond: their strong, beautiful friendship. they don't have to be a couple if it doesn't make them stronger and better and happier people.

i think it would be healthy and wonderful for a show, especially one consumed frequently by young adults, to show a relationship starting, progressing, and ending on good terms in this way. sometimes things don't work out, and that is okay.

Anyone's sent today's Wolverine issue to Brevoort yet? You know since he keeps on yapping how the throuple is lacking evidence especially in recent issues LOL. This is exactly what the starving throuple fans deserved. It's not EVERYTHING of course, because this is still Marvel, but you can read it however you like and they didn't just retcon it from orbit as was at some point rumored. These panels make me mighty emotional, and now I'm ready to write ALL the throuple and scogan things for pride month :D.

and then horror's more than happy to do it 😁😁😁 he winds that shit up before he bitch slaps dust :33 oh you need to be judged DONT WORRY DUST horror is a totally impartial judge that totally won't find your situation both ridiculous and entertaining 😁😁

is it fair to call people like this "hack writers" if the only way they find a relationship interesting is when it involves pedophilia, incest, cannibalism or necrophilia?

[twentyfivemiceinatrenchcoat]

the writing in csm is genuinely so genius but it’s also so . crude . and i think that’s the reason people misunderstand it so often. it makes you feel deeply uncomfortable and it Should but that doesn’t make it bad . you need to pay attention to the undertones and narrative and i genuinely don’t think a lot of shounen fans bother to 😭😭
