#I need more silly sav

[nyatem]

I need him so bad (he’s clinically insane)

Imagine he didn’t die he was just acting,, haha (copium)

I know he doesn’t have a big fanbase but he’s my sassy princess. I can’t live without him

[arnaerr]

Savari during different stages of her life. Had lots of fun with these!

prints ✦ more about her life and more stages + her family members on my Patreon

After finishing magic academy, Sav became an investigator of magic related crimes in the city and used her necromancy abilities to talk to the victims. The betrayal thing is basically her fiancé using her family having access to rare magical resources to become a lich. He suddenly disappears, and she uses some magical artifact stored in her family's vault to gain more power and find him (which is forbidden by her family's laws). And since Malguran family punishes misuse of necromancy/hunts liches, she has to kill him and gains this scar during battle. Right after that, she gets her white tattoos that are considered a sign of wisdom in Malguran family (and everyone in this family gets them at some point).

The Jergal's chosen powers is a silly headcanon of mine that since Savari's family is dedicated to keeping balance in necromancy, they are quite devoted to him, so I think Sav could gain some additional powers from that. Her family collects and protects powerful magical artifacts, but they also create a source of magical power that every Malguran can use when in dire need. So, when Sav reaches to that source of power, her appearance changes a bit.

Def Leppard members as your boyfriend

Joe:

There's so much yet so little I know about him as a boyfriend / partner

But I know he'd be very doting

Like, as soon as you tell about anything that you're hyperfixating on, he will learn everything about it

Loves fangirl Fridays, where the both of you watch a bunch of interviews (old & new) on YouTube, or back then, on VHS, 'cause you always recorded at least one or two

He's fangirling about Ian Hunter obviously (it's so funny to me, but all hail the fangirls and fanboys♡)

One time you were hyperfixating on Sav, and therefor your attention was put a little bit more towards him

Poor Joe got a bit jealous, 'cause it was his best friend, but eh, he wasn't better, and it was harmless, so it's good, right?;3

Listens to you like there was nothing else going on

HUGS, HUGS, HUGS

Hugs from behind, quick side hug, hugs during cuddling...All the hugs!!💕🫂

Kisses range from every possible kind there is

Loves deep and long kisses, the ones where you basically lose your breath

You're kind of his personal heater / cooler when you're cuddling

Clings like a koala to you

Furthermore, very loyal and loves to have you on tour, but not too long, so that you won't get sick of it:)

Loves to call you ,,love" or ,,babe", or any other nickname you like, like childhood nicknames:)

Sav:

He always looks so slightly confused to me, omg-

Like, it took him so long to realize, that you two were a couple

It were two weeks, but it still felt like an eternity, like forever

Definitely teaches you bass (you gotta know where the rhythm comes from;3)

Will introduce you to the big and wide world of fashion

Will get you a custom suit (or dress...Or both):>

Breakfast in bed whenever he can:3

Cuddles EVERY night, even on call (no matter analog or digital)

Loves deep conversations about anything

Rick:

He is such a sweetheart

Won't stop looking at you when you two hang out

Like...He's so enamored, his eyes literally formed to hearts♡

ATTENTIVE!!!

Loves driving out somewhere:]

Asks everybody what he should get you for special occasions, despite knowing you in and out🤭

Loves telling you about the random stuff he saw on walks

I wanna squish his cheeks:3

Phil:

Active boy

Be prepared to always go anywhere with a bike if possible

He probably tries to swim so so far

But! If you wanna have a lazy day a few days in a row, he's not opposed to that

From reading his book, Phil is a deeper thinker than you might imagine, so lots of talking about his philosophy of life and how the world works. He genuinely believes you are soulmates. He cooks you vegan food, and takes you to the gym, whether you want to or not! Very keen on, ahem, bedroom activities, and probably pretty good at it after all that practice lol <- @steveinscarlet

(Somebody help me, I don't know what to add-)

Steve:

Do I have to say it?

I'll just say it again

BIGGEST👏SWEETHEART👏EVER❤️

Like, he's so fun to be around, talk to etc. etc...

Kisses all the time

Late night talks until dawn

Love making? Yes sir:)

The softest hugs known to mankind

Steve is super-shy, so you probably had to make the first move, or be so painfully obvious that even he couldn't fail to notice that you like him. Talks to you in funny voices and probably has a silly pet name for you which makes the other guys make vomiting noises when they hear him use it. He alternates between being really loved up and soppy, and needing reassurance that you really do love him. Buys you classy presents like jewellery and fancy perfume. You steal each other's clothes and eat from each other's plates. He tells you you're beautiful even when you have a spot the size of mount Vesuvius on your chin! <- @steveinscarlet

(Feel free to add, I'll add them:))

Vivian:

The first thing I thought about was Stu

He always had a little companion with him, wherever he would go (if he could take it with him, that is)

Absolutely loves playing your favourite songs on an acoustic, especially fast ones, 'cause they sometimes sound weird (he does it on purpose, 'cause it makes you laugh)

Lets you do his hair:)

Shy boy:>

Loves cuddling up in the middle of whatever you or he were doing

Forehead kisses

(Feel free to add!)

Contrary to popular opinion - ficlet

I wrote something silly

Words: 1381

Content: Little bit of swearing

-----------------------------

“So we’re really going to do this then?”

“We agreed it’s time, didn't we? But we don’t have to, if you’re getting cold feet?”

“No, you’re right. It’s been nearly two years, we can’t keep hiding it. I just worry how they’re going to react.”

“They’re our mates and they love us. Well, sort of. They might be shocked at first, but I think they’ll be okay with it once they get used to the idea. And if they aren’t, well, fuck ‘em!”

“Yeah, fuck ‘em!” echoed Steve, with more resolve than he really felt. 

“Ready?”

Steve nodded and reached out his hand to grasp Phil’s. 

“Here we go then.” With his other hand, Phil pushed open the door to the Rec room and greeted the rest of the band. “Morning, everyone!”

There was a chorus of ‘morning’s and ‘how do’s from the various band members and techs scattered around the room, and an unintelligible grunt from Sav, who hadn’t had enough coffee to form actual words yet, but, engrossed in newspapers and the morning mail, no one looked up. 

“How are we doing this fine day?” he continued, hoping to draw at least some eyes towards them.

Joe looked from the football scores to the window and then to the two guitarists. “It’s raining?”

“Err, that is a fine day in Holland, need the rain to fill up the canals!”

Joe frowned but decided it wasn’t worth questioning the logic of this and just went back to his paper.

Phil steered them in a circuitous route around the room, stopping to greet Rick.

“Morning lads.” The drummer looked up. “Nice shirt, Steve.”

“Thanks, it’s new.”

Impatient, Phil prompted, “Notice anything else?”

Rick squinted at the two of them. “You got your hair cut?” he hazarded.

“Oh never mind.” Phil gave up, dragging Steve away to the breakfast buffet.

“The doughnuts are good today!” Rick called after them.

“It’s not working,” puzzled Phil as they busied themselves pouring tea and choosing pastries, “maybe we’re being too subtle?”

“I’ve got an idea…”

Steve started rattling crockery until at least a few of the people scattered around the room looked vaguely in their direction, and then pounced on the other man with what looked like it was going to be a giant sloppy kiss, but ended up more of an awkward peck with their noses bumping. Other than Sav rolling his eyes, there was no reaction. When Phil blinked and recovered from the inept surprise attack, Steve’s expression was a pained cringe. Phil grabbed his shoulder and almost pushed him out of the door into the corridor and away from the audience.

“What was that? Even I didn’t believe that!” 

“I know, sorry, I got nervous at the last second.”

“Well it was a good thought, but no one batted an eyelid. At this rate we're going to have to screw on the mixing desk before anyone notices anything.” 

“That seems a bit extreme. Not to mention uncomfortable.”

“So we need a different approach. Something a bit more obvious.” 

“How about we start referring to each other as boyfriends?” 

“That might work. And we could call each other darling?”

“But we don't even do that in private?” 

“Well I can't call you my actual name for you now can I, Bunny?”

“No, please no.”

“See, that’s why it suits you so well, because you’re so cute.” He reached up and booped the blushing man’s nose.

“Shuddup,” Steve muttered, but he couldn’t hide a pleased little smile.

-----------------------------

Back in the lounge, Sav turned to Joe with an observation. “Is it just me, or are those two even weirder than usual today?”

“The snogging you mean?”

“No, they’re always doing that. The muttering in corners. I think they’re up to something.”

“Plotting more of their shenanigans probably. Remember the day they spoke in Spanish accents?”

“And that time they tried to do everything backwards and Steve fell down the stairs; and when they pretended to be each other for an entire week.”

Joe shuddered. “The sight of Phil trying to fit in Steve’s jeans will haunt me for life!”

-----------------------------

During lunch Phil asked for ‘water, for my boyfriend’, ‘ketchup, for my boyfriend’, ‘extra napkins, for my BOYFRIEND’ and so many other things that the exasperated waitress eventually just brought him a tray of condiments and cutlery, and on the journey back to the studio, Steve sat on Phil’s lap, even though there were enough seats for everyone. But still no one commented, or even acted like their behaviour was the least bit unusual. That evening, back in the room that was ostensibly Phil’s, though in fact they shared it, they reconsidered their strategy.

“There’s nothing else for it, we're going to have to actually tell people.”

“You do it, you’re better at words.”

“But you’ve known them longer.”

“That’s why they’ll be shocked. But everyone knows you’ll shag anything with a pulse, so they won’t be that surprised you’re shagging me!”

“Cheeky!” exclaimed Phil with mock offence, poking him in the ribs. Then he turned serious. “You know it’s not just that, right?”

“I know. I don’t understand why you’d pick me, but you did, so…” He shrugged.

“You are ridiculous.” Phil threw an arm round the other man’s shoulders, pulling him close and kissing him on the forehead. “I love you, you pillock. And tomorrow we’ll tell everyone and then I won’t have to pretend not to any more.”

“That’ll be nice,” murmured Steve, settling into his embrace. 

-----------------------------

The time they chose for the big announcement was the end of the day when everyone, Mutt included, was hanging around the studio listening to the tracks they’d put down that day. They’d been twitchy about it all day, but the somewhat anticlimactic response to Phil’s stammered ‘Me and Steve, we’re… well… we’re together’ was neither the outrage and derision they’d feared, nor the happiness and congratulations they’d hoped for. It was laughter.

“See, I told you they were up to something,” crowed Sav.

“Gotta give it to you, lads, this is real commitment to the bit,” added Mutt.

“No, really,” protested Phil, “we are a couple. Partners, boyfriends…”

“We’re in love,” declared Steve, flushing pink. 

“Nah, you’re pulling my leg.”

Phil resorted to desperate measures, grabbing Steve round the neck and giving him a passionate kiss, squeezing his arse for added effect. 

“Would we do that if we weren't a couple?"

Joe and Sav looked at each other and nodded. “Yes?”

“Definitely,” confirmed Rick.

“You've always done that.”

“Well we've ALWAYS been a couple!” insisted Steve.

That revelation finally shocked everyone into considering it seriously.

“What do you mean always?”

“Err, since we were rehearsing for the Pyro tour. All that time together working out guitar parts. We sort of… grew on each other.”

“Then there was a bottle of Jack Daniels and a hotel room with a really big bathtub…”

“Phil! They do not need to know that!” He looked around the control room. “How did you never even suspect? Sav, you’ve stayed at our flat in Paris - didn't you wonder why we’ve only got one bedroom? And Mutt, you noticed our matching necklaces. And everyone always comments that we spend all our time together.” 

Rick shrugged. “We just thought you were best mates; like Joe and Sav, they're always together.”

“Hmm, maybe there's something they need to tell us too?” mused Phil.

“FUCK NO!” Joe and Sav hollered in unison, leaping six feet apart.

“No offence, mate.”

“None taken. You’re a fine figure of a man, but you’re not my type.”

Joe decided not to think about whether he was flattered by that remark and turned back to the newly-revealed couple. “You’re serious about this?”

“Totally…”

“Like a heart attack.”

“Then congratulations are in order.” Sav stepped forward and gave them both a back-slapping hug. “We should go get drinks to celebrate!”

Joe still looked a little concerned. “Are you gonna be doing that… smoochy stuff… all the time now then?”

“Maybe,” stated Phil defiantly.

“That might take a bit of getting used to, but, okay. Happy for you, mates.”

“Do we have to start playing disco now?” quipped Rick.

“We’re not GAY,” snorted Steve.

“We’re not?” Phil lifted their still-clasped hands.

“All right, we’re a bit gay. But we’re not that gay.”

"So how hungover are you?" Lando asks as I stir in bed.

"Very. I don't remember getting back last night" the whole night after a certain point is a blank. All I want to do is sleep the day away and feel sorry for myself.

"I'm not surprised. When you got me to pick you up, you were just sat on the kerb talking shit to be honest"

"You know it's serious when the thinking kerb happens" I say with a laugh seeing Lando's confused look "it started when we were teenagers. It happens when you're so drunk you think you're having the deepest conversation with anyone who will listen and they usually happen in the most random of places, for me and my friends it always ended ip being a kerb outside of a club or wherever we were"

"So when you start having conversations with me like that I need to remember to be serious?"

"Pretty much" I say snuggling myself under Lando's arm resting my head on his chest "I didn't make an idiot of myself with your parents did I?"

"Not at all. You, Flo and Sav were hilarious when we got back here my mum and dad were thoroughly entertained. Thank you for making an effort with my family, it means a lot"

"Lando I'm always going to make an effort with your family. You've given my friends and family a chance, I'm not going to write off your family. They've all been amazing with me from the moment I met your parents at the race" I genuinely like Lando's family. They've all taken me in as one of their own and it's nice to be treated like one of the family. I've never felt as comfortable with a boyfriends family as I do with Lando's. I've never got on with a ex's siblings the way I do with Lando's either, I can see myself becoming really good friends with the girls.

I fall back to sleep in Lando's arms needing to sleep off this hangover, we have a three hour drive back to my house at some point today the last thing I want is to still feel like a corpse when I'm stuck in a car. Eventually waking up I notice Lando is no longer in bed with me, I don't blame him. I drag myself to his bathroom to make myself more presentable. When I say presentable I mean having a shower, brushing my teeth and pulling one of Lando's hoodies on with a pair of leggings. My hair is scraped up into a birds nest on the top of my head, it can't even be considered a messy bun the sheer state of it.

"I'm pleased you two look as hungover as I feel" I say walking into the living room where Flo and Savannah are both lying on either side of the sofa with a blanket and a can of full fat coke in front of them.

"it's hell Lucía. Being this hungover with two kids is not for the weak. I've had to get Oliver to take the girls to a park so I can recover" I had noticed the house is quiet, I'm assuming Lando has also gone with his brother.

"Morning Lucía, I'm making a roast beef dinner if you'd like some" Cisca tells me as she joins us in the living room "you all look like you need it"

"That would be amazing if you don't mind" the thought of a Sunday roast makes my stomach growl, I'm at the hungover stage where all I want is to eat "do you want some help?" I ask not wanting to take advantage of the hospitality I've been shown.

"Don't be silly. Lando should be back from the gym soon" Cisca tells me as she walks back into the kitchen answering my unspoken question as to where my boyfriend is. Laying on the other sofa I decide to follow Flo and Savannah's lead and will this hangover away.

"Hi baby" I feel Lando lifting my legs so he can sit next to me, he's freshly showered and I'm the human version of the heart eyes emoji looking at him "you look better than you did the morning"

"I don't think I feel it. I'll miss you when you go to Baku" I say quiet enough so only Lando can hear me. I know once Lando leaves on Wednesday it's going to be near enough two weeks until I see him again as he's leaving Baku and going straight to Singapore for media work in the run up to the race.

"I'm going to miss you as well baby. I would love for you to come to every race with me. I know we've had this conversation and I understand you have work but if it was up to me I wouldn't leave you" one of the things I really like about Lando is that he doesn't try to get me to give up working, he understands I have my own career and respects that I won't just drop it for him.

"I hate that that we have to leave each other as well but we can make this work Lando" reaching out I take Lando's hand in mine playing with his fingers "I'm going to watch every second of both races. I'm watching the Baku race with Liv, I haven't seen her for ages and I need to know how her and Max are doing" I've been a terrible friend lately, all of my time has been dedicated to Lando and I've barely seen my friends.

"He's completely smitten with her. He talks about her a lot and I know she's spent a lot of time in London with him and he's going back to Manchester with her when she goes" I know Max and Lando talk all of the time but it's always amusing for me when I hear men gossiping the way women do.

"That sounds like someone else we know" Flo joins in obviously listening to what we're saying about Max and Liv "in fact you're not even just smitten, you're completely in love"

"No one asked you, brat" Lando says throwing a cushion at Flo and I can't help but think he's embarrassed his younger sister is calling him out.

A few hours later we're back in my car on our way back to Cheshire. We had the most beautiful roast off Cisca followed by a nap before we decided it was time to leave. We've probably been in the car around an hour or so but I can't take my eyes off Lando. The way he's holding the steering wheel, his muscles flexing and the veins in his arms popping. I've tried crossing my legs and holding back but I can't.

"Lando?"

"Yeah baby?" He has no idea what's about to come out of my mouth especially when he's driving.

"I need you to finger me" the look on Lando’s face is priceless. The car practically comes to a stop in the middle of the motorway, he did not expect this.

“What the fuck you can’t just come out with that when I’m driving” I can tell Lando is trying to concentrate on the road but I’d happily pull over onto the hard shoulder to get what I want.

“I’m not just saying it for the sake of it. I need your fingers in me Lando. I thought I could wait until we got back but I can’t”

“Are you actually serious?”

“As serious as a heart attack” taking Lando’s left hand I bring it to the waistband of my leggings “don’t make me do it myself”

“Fuck you’re well and truly hungover and horny” feeling Lando’s fingers push their way into my waistband I gasp feeling his fingers on my clit “fucking hell you’re soaking!”

“All for you Lando” Lando runs his fingers up and down my soaked slit pushing two fingers in. I don’t even need him to get me ready, I feel like I could orgasm just looking at him today. Spreading my legs as far as I can I give Lando as much space as my car allows.

“Is this what you wanted? My fingers curling inside of you. My thumb on your clit?” Lando’s words only spur me on, throwing my head back in my seat I let out a guttural moan. This feeling is exactly what I wanted.

“Keep going…right there” as Lando’s thumb gives my clit more attention I feel myself getting close “fuck…feels so good”

“Come on baby, cum for me. Let me taste you” I have no idea how Lando is concentrating on driving right now. I couldn’t even tell you if the car is still moving I’m so overcome with pleasure.

I feel the all too familiar feeling building up in my lower body. Pushing my head back into the headrest I let out a loud moan and I dig my fingers into Lando’s arm needing something to hold on to. As I come down from my high I look over at Lando watching him suck my juices from his fingers. It’s probably one of the most attractive things I’ve seen him do.

“That was fucking incredible. I can’t wait until we’re home so you can fuck me properly” I can’t help but notice the bulge in Lando’s joggers, it’s a dead giveaway that he enjoyed this just as much as I did. I can only pray the rest of this journey is over soon.

The next few days I spend every breathing second with Lando. It’s been so nice to have him with me all of them time and wake up to him on a morning. It was painful to say goodbye to him knowing I won’t see him until after the race in Singapore. Granted after that we have around a month together but 2 weeks is going to drag. I’m like an obsessive girlfriend who wants to be with him 24/7.

It’s been two days now since he left and Liv has came over so we can spend some time together. I’m like a love sick puppy and nothing other than Lando is putting a smile on my face lately. I really think I love that man.

"Max is going to Singapore next week, he's got stuff to do with Quadrant but he's mainly going for the race"

"Are you not going?" I ask thinking Liv would be going with Max not wanting to be apart from him, I know I’d be with Lando if I could be.

"No I have work but I also think Max and Lando need to spend some time together. They've both been so busy lately I'm sick of Max telling me he misses Lando"

"They're like a married couple. I find it highly entertaining when they're on a stream together" the times when I hear Lando on a stream with Max, I leave him to it however I do always find myself sitting in another room laughing at them bickering "I think I might go to Monaco when Lando comes back from Singapore. I haven't told him yet but I'm going to see if work will be okay with me not going into the office but essentially working from home even if it's from a different country"

"Do you think they'll agree to it?"

"I have no idea. I guess it's a case of me logging on from Monaco or potentially taking leave and not working at all" I say with a shrug. I don't see why work would have an issue especially if I'm still working.

"There's no harm asking I suppose" Liv says with a shrug "do you think you'd move to Monaco for Lando?"

"I wouldn't write the idea off as a point blank no and I do think if that's what it came to I would consider it I just don’t think it’s an option yet" I think it's a long way off but if I had to move to Monaco with Lando to make our relationship work I'd take it into consideration. This man makes me want to fight for every fibre of him. The more I think about him the more I really do think I love that man.

What's your favorite destiny lore entry, Drifteris or otherwise? (I enjoy hearin' ya ramble and talk :] )

Oh my… there's so many!

Currently at the top would be Gloaming Journeyer, Whispering Slab, the Eidolon Pursuant clothes and Kept Confidence for… obvious reasons. And yes, I do drive that sparrow, wear those clothes, and use those weapons in-game for silly lore reasons (and also Malf, Trust, Night Terror, Loud Lullaby, etc. etc. etc.)

Beyond the blatant Drifteris lore-related things, I really loved the writing on the Sororicide book as well as Eris' letters and notes on the Darkness from Io (The Singular Exegete). All of Eris' letters, really (including Letters from Eris) are fantastic - the writing on them is really well done but also Eris' in-character writing voice is beautiful. I love her the way a book nerd loves another book nerd. I would write letters back and forth with Eris and attempt to seduce her with words. She's amazing.

Drifter's book A Man with No Name is as heartbreaking and gritty as he is and I love the tragic way he breaks and fragments and crumbles but still has something within him that says "that ain't right" and so still tries to manipulate things to help without directly helping. I love his indirect approach to conflict resolution (especially in comparison to Eris' direct stab-the-evil-in-the-fucking-face methods).

I also intensely love when there is writing in Ikora's voice/perspective. Ikora is Destiny's Sherlock Holmes/Batman but also brings some much-needed strong philosophical undercurrents to so much of the Destiny universe. While Eris may give the Drifter hope and is a beloved symbol of badassery through the worst of Hell, it's Ikora that actually articulates things for the player/reader that are genuinely hopeful and bring solace in the darkest parts of Destiny's narrative.

Sadly some of the best parts are ones I read in the Witch Queen Collector's Edition book and therefore are not linkable on Ishtar but they can be found if you know where to look (and if you don't, feel free to reach out to me privately). Despite Sav being Eris' opponent in so many things Sav's polar opposite character-narrative-philosopy-wise in the lore is actually Ikora and I love Ikora for that.

I hope we see more Ikora lore in future.

Also... thank you for asking me things. I love being asked things. <3

More Savannah and Ocean bc perfectdolls is superior and I love them both and um this au is rotting my brain away so I need to write about it yeah

“Ocean?”

The redhead turned to Savannah. “Yes, Sav?”

Savannah was looking at the ground, thinking.

“What color are my eyes?”

Her question was asked so quietly, it was as though she was afraid to ask it.

Ocean blinked. “Your eyes?”

Savannah still hadn’t seen a mirror, and her blonde hair covered her eyes. Ocean pulled off her headband and pushed it into Savannah’s hair.

And the biggest, brightest, greenest eyes stared right back at her. She paused, taking in the color. The light.

“They’re beautiful,” Ocean said, “They’re a beautiful green, Sav. With a little gray in them. Your eyes are one of a kind.”

Savannah smiled slightly. “Thank you. It’s still strange. I haven’t seen myself yet, but you.. you give very detailed descriptions of me.”

Ocean blinked, her face growing hot. “I do? I mean- I just think you’re very pretty and I want you to know that so I just- I’m sorry. I’ll stop talking.”

Savannah laughed softly. “No, please don’t.”

She took Ocean’s hands and looked at her with those shining eyes.

“I love how you describe me,” she said, smiling.

Ocean didn’t respond. Then she laughed awkwardly.

“Well, we better get to my house before it gets dark. Come on.”

She brushed off the dirt on her dress as she stood up and she helped Savannah up.

Savannah smiled. “Thank you, Ocean.”

Ocean shrugged. “No problem! I figured you’d need a place to stay and-“

“No, silly. Thank you, for helping me figure myself out. Even if it’s a little.”

Ocean blinked, then smiled.

“You’re welcome, Savannah. Now, come on. Let’s go home.”

hi my dearest loveliness !! good evening afternoon OR morning I HOPE YOUR DAY IS GOING WELL TODAY!! AND I HOPE YOUVE EATEN!! i literally just woke up (it’s 3pm…. my parents literally watched me come out of my room and were like ???)(you just woke up???)LMFAO BUT BUT i’m back to work tomorrow so i wanted to sleep in a lot today(I HAVE A 9-5:30 RIGHT OFF THE BAT)(MY WORK HATES ME??)but omg i just saw the ask from sav(sorry am i allowed to call her that too)(IM SORRY IDK) and i was like AWWWW “you and your mango anon” I AM NESS’ MANGO ANON idk why i thought it was so cute and sweet like YOU GIGGLE AND READ THEM?? THATS SO CUTE?? IM GONNA EXPLODE?? but let’s all yap together this is yap central(a safe place for yappers)

omg last night i got so many notifs if you answering every ask bat to bat and I FELT SO BAD BECAUSE I WROTE A LOT YESTERDAY BUT YOU STILL ANSWERED EACH ASK WITH LIKE SO SO MUCH PASSION??(idk if that’s the right word) but you always answer each ask with ur heart like non of it is halfassed(sorry am i allowed to swear)(IVE BEEN REFRAINING FROM SWEARING BECAUSE IDK I DONT THINK IVE SEEN YOU SWEAR OUTSIDE YOUR SMAUS???)(or idk i’m crazy i think i’m crazy)

I WOULD SHARE WHAT CONCERT IT WAS LIKE I WAS GOING TO but i was like omg i’m gonna dox myself LOL BUT actually you know what’s so funny i don’t even live in the states(LORE DROP) ALSO DECLAN MCKENNA?? THATS SO COOL THAT YOU GOT TO SEE HIM i think he’s on tour again right now?? or just performing right now (I THINK) im pretty sure i saw on ticketmaster! i would 100% go but literally my bank account is decreasing a little too much for my liking and it’s time to lock in and go ultra saving mode LOL BUT OMG MITSKI??? stop it if i was rich i would 100% fly over to your state and buy tickets for you and me and we could go together and have our losing dogs moment(on repeat by eggy always in my heart)(literally one of my fav smaus LOL)

ness i will read every single part of your response LITERALLY I WILL READ AND ABSORB EVERY PART SO do not worry your pretty little head(as i said this i imagined myself tapping your head with a pretty little fairy stick)BUT OMG ME AND YOU WORKING AT ILLEGAL AGES(actually actually hold on)okay because i started working my retail job when i was 15 but i was like a week away from turning 16 but they accepted me anyways? idk it’s kind of silly but i remember saying i was 15 but turning 16 in a “few days” (i think it was a week and a bit) and they were like mmmm okay! here’s your training days blah blah blah LOL listen i really wanted a job… i always felt bad asking my parents for money so i was like you know what ILL get my own money(here i am 2-3 years later still trapped in retail)also i totally get the hostess thing because my friend works at olive garden as a hostess and like it SOUNDS SO STRESSFUL? because like… you’re kinda in control of how much tips a person gets? (if that makes sense) and it just feels ITS TOO STRESSFUL FOR ME TO FANTOM LIKE i cant i feel like im too much of a people pleaser where id just be like oh! oh you don’t want this table? okay! oh i have you too many tables? i’m sorry! my bad! let me do it! ALSO IDK i hate fixed schedules like i like the random rotation every week LOL like it’s kinda a surprise!! like omg what days am i working today type of thing you know! BUT OMG THEM KEEPING YOU ON STANDBY IS CRAZY AFTER YOU QUIT LOL they love you so much they want to keep you <3 i can’t blame them <3 ness is a very lovable person <3 but restaurant environments are different from retail idk how you do it like I APPAUD YOU AND EVERY OTHER RESTAURANT WORKER because like dealing with hangry people everyday like… i already deal with impatient customers which make me wanna pull my hair like i remember one time during this rush we had everyone on cash like everyone on the tills right and this guy came up to my till and he’s like “yall need more workers” LIKE CANT YOU SEE EVERYONE ON THE TILLS RIGHT NOW??WE ARE TRYING OUR BEST !! and i was deadass like “haha sorry….. would you like a bag for 50 cents?”

ALSO YOURE SO BUSY WHAT?? your schedule is so jacked up HOW DO YOU DO IT??? like literally uni + job AND THEATRE??? and also the fact that you have more than one job?? PLS PLS PLS EAT AND TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF LOVE YOURE GONNA BURN OUT </3

omg if i worked lights with you it would’ve been so so so much better like i’m not discrediting the light people i worked with BUT it was the fact that they were a year younger right so they didn’t really know what they were doing since all our light crew graduated and for some reason people didn’t like doing lights as much? so they were just first years doing lights and i had to help out a bunch and kind of guide them BCUZ IDK WHY MY TECH TEACHER DIDNT DO IT RIGHT so i had to focus on sound PLUS helping the lights people which i don’t really mind too much when we’re just having rehearsals but like during shows i was a little more stressed because they weren’t that confident and was always asking just to make sure and it was 100% not their fault of course but I WAS STILL STRESSED and doing my hardest to help him while trying to also keep track of where the play was(sorry very messy)(i too am like you and i do NOT proof read these whatsoever) IF I COULD I WOULD DROP EVERYTHING AND FLY THERE !! we could be the light + sound duo because i literally miss my tech days like i lowkey thought about doing it in uni but IDK WHY I DIDNT !! I SHOULDVE !! also another suna smau would heal me (LMFAO NO PRESSURE) BUT I LITERALLY LOVE ALL OF INARIZAKI?? like they all have my heart(especially kita and osamu like oh my god)BUT OH MY GOD IF YOU DO I THINK ILL CRY LIKE “OMG THATS ME GUYS” “I AM MANGO ANON !!!” BUT you have sooooo much stuff lined up so DO NOT WORRY TOO MUCH!! what you’ve been giving right now (TRY AGAIN AND TONICS <333) is already so good like the idea and concepts AND IM SO EXCITED FOR THEM TOO AHH

THE CAST NOT BEINF ABLE TO PROJECT THEIR VOICES ARE SO REAL !!! maybe i’m just saying this because i only did plays in high school right so it was a bunch of kids right but it was soooo frustrating because like SPEAK UP but also the fact that some cast got better mics than others? like tell me why i can’t hear this lead but i can hear this random person playing a citizen like?? BUT LITERALLY WHEN MICS DIE I LITERALLY WANNA JUST FALL TO THE FLOOR LIKE and the director is just like “keep going” LIKE DONT KEEP GOING WHAT? I CANT HEAR? like i literally feel like i have to focus my energy like some type of anime character to my ears just to hear a SNIPPET of what they’re saying but then sometimes i get in trouble for missing cues </3 LIKE I’M SORRY IT ISNT MY FAULT LIKE MAYBE GET BETTER SPEAKERS AND MICS?? also not you literally running the whole tech crew like rewiring the motherboard and climbing stuff like ness mvp tech girl LOL BUT I GET NOT WANTING TO THINK ABOUT THOSE TIMES LIKE i swear all tech/cast crew environments are SO toxic like i literally remember one of the cast fainting because like we literally got no breaks at all so she was probably overwhelmed with the lighting and everything else then that’s when the director was like ok… let’s take a break like YOU THINK??

ALSO YOURE SO RIGHT if the previous men i’ve talked to is on tumblr reading cutesy little haikyuu x femreader stuff THEN THATS ANOTHER PROBLEM(NO STOP I LITERALLY GIGGLED SO HARD WHEN YOU SAID THAT LOL)(everytime i read your responses im always smiling and giggling like i always reread it too LOL) but omg ness… the quarantine online gaming breakout season is such a canon event like BECAUSE ME TOOOOO LOL(we are so soulmates) mine was a mix of minecraft and roblox and I LITERALLY MET A WHOLE GROUP ONLINE TOO IT WAS CRAZY the ptsd flashbacks is so real but THATS SO GIRLBOSS OF YOU LIKE YES!! CALL MEN OUT ON THEIR SHIT!!(sorry swearing again) BE NO MANS PEACE!! i will literally find him and politely beat him up for you <333 TIME FOR LORE DROP AND IF THE PERSON READS THIS THEN ??? WELL ??? oh well LOL but anyways so i was in this little online group idk i kind of just found them through twitter and i was like WHY NOT so i became friends with this guy he went by socks(discord names are so real)and like we got really close right and like he was the only person i really VC’d with (AND AND TO BE FAIR I THINK ITS BECAUSE WE WERE LIKE THE BABIES OF THE GROUP) like we were the same age while everyone else was like 19-25ish now(idk what i was doing hanging out with them as a minor but oh well)(i’m 18 now so it’s ok!)(but i literally don’t talk to any of them now LOL)but i remember this one specific conversation where he was like teaching me spanish?? because i don’t know i was teaching him viet too so it was just a silly little thing and i translated it(this was through texts like i still have the screenshot LOL) and he basically confessed to me through text in spanish right then afterwards they were like JK JK JK!! IDK idk if it was real or not but we drifted a lot after that so idk! sock if ur out there !! im sorry !! to be fair though they didn’t give me a chance to reply because i had to translate it then when i came back to the chat they were like IM JK IM JK SO idk! I GUESS WE’LL NEVER KNOW!! also i will def report back when i get a poke bowl but im very very picky about the way i eat raw fish bevause sometimes it’s okay but when there’s an overwhelming amount i kind of get scared and im like hmmm maybeeee.. not this time… LOL It really depends for me!! but maybe ill try the imitation crab one if i see it!

I GET WHAT YOU MEAN ENTIRELY AND I'M GLAD THAT GETS ACROSS WELL <3 I JUST APPRECIATE YOU ALL SM <3

AND YOU DEF DON'T HAVE TO SAY WHAT CONCERT YOU WENT TO!! I WAS WORRIED ABOUT LIKE THAT DOXXING U OR SOMETHING bc i had no idea you didn't live in the states!!! i definitely automatically assumed that and that maybe u had went to a different state since we were in the same timezone for a little bit but that makes total sense and that was my bad for assuming 😭😭 BUT AA YES!! I'D LOVE TO SEE HIM AGAIN AND MAYBE I WILL <3 LIKE HIS TICKETS DEF ARE NOT BAD PRICING AND HE'S AMAZING!!! i'm just insanely broke and like ik he's touring with sabrina carpenter rn or something??? which is super cool and good for him!! and sabrina's cool but i don't think i'd enjoy or be able to afford her concerts 😭 and that's okay!! maybe my tickets were cheap the time i went to see him bc it was a little more niche <3 AND AAA YES I WISH WE COULD SEE MITSKI TOGETHER!! the entire crowd would be in tears over i bet on losing dogs like that's our national anthem FRFR!!!!

I WAS IMAGINING THE PRETTY LITTLE FAIRY STICK WITH U thank you for tapping my head <33 AND I ALSO READ ABSORB EVERYTHING U TELL ME SO PLEASE YAP AS MUCH AS YOU WANT!! AND DON'T EVEN WORRY ABOUT SMALL FONT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO <3 YOU DO WHATEVER YOUR PRETTY LITTLE HEART DESIRES!!! (i am giving ur heart a kiss rn mwah <3) BUT PLEASE THE ILLEGAL JOBS FR SOME PLACES BE CRAZY AND THEY STILL GET AWAY WITH IT!!! BUT YOU GET IT EXACTLY like at the restaurant i often work at we often just have a rotation with no server sections bc it's pretty small (i'd only be forced to do sections when i worked with my manager who made me want to DIE and made me cry once i literally ran out and cried next to a steakhouse across from us) and so basically i just sit people at random tables (i always ask them like "is this table okay?" and i'm not really asking them like girl i have better things to be doing than escorting you around this restaurant trying to see what table tickles your fancy the best. i just ask them so i don't sound super forward like "THIS IS YOUR TABLE SUCK IT UP." yk??) and whoever's turn it is next, they get it so i'll tell them like "table three for two people" so like I REALLY DO NOT CONTROL WHAT CUSTOMERS A SERVER GETS BUT THEY ALL COME AND COMPLAIN AT ME FOR HOW BAD THEIR TABLES ARE (probably bc they're trying to guilt trip me or be passive aggressive) BUT LIKE WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO ABOUT IT?? I'M NOT PURPOSELY GIVING PEOPLE BAD OR GOOD TABLES LIKE 😭😭 and i'm sure it's even worse at places like olive garden which are way bigger! and you have to work with other hosts and more people so best of luck to your friend she's doing amazing <3 AND YOU GET IT!! LIKE IT'D PROABABLY BE NICE TO HAVE A FIXED SCHEDULE BUT ALSO I COULDN'T DO IT I LOVE BEING SCHEDULED ON RANDOM DAYS EVERY WEEK I NEVER KNOW WHAT'S COMING also the guy who told you you guys needed more workers??? THANK YOU SIR FOR STATING THE OBVIOUS!! I HAD NO IDEA, LET ME, JUST A PERSON WHO WORKS HERE, NOT A MANAGER OR ANYTHING, GO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!! IN FACT, WHY DON'T YOU JUST PUT ON AN APRON AND START HELPING SINCE WE NEED MORE WORKERS!! CONGRATS YOU'RE HIRED!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH MANGO ANON 😭 I ALREADY FEEL SO BURNT OUT I'M REALLY HOPING THINGS WILL CALM DOWN AFTER SEPTEMBER IG (WHEN I STOP WORKING TWO JOBS) OR BY NOVEMEBER AT LEAST (WHEN THEATRE IS OVER) BUT WE'LL SEE </3 i'm sure things will continue to come up but i fr just want to lay down and sleep until 3pm like u did today 😔😔 that sounds so nice </3

AND PLEASE WHY IS YOUR TECH THEATRE STORIES THE SAME AS MINE like i was a run and props kid until my school's musical sophomore year where we got these three boys who all wanted to do tech and we had too many run and props kids so i was like "yk what. let me go to lights so that hopefully u three can be together" which didn't even work out bc one of the boys got thrown into lights with me while the other two were on run and props but were on opposite wings LMAO and so that was my first show doing lights which i did board op for because it was also our last show of the year which was also our like senior who knew everything about lights' last show so after that she GRADUATED and i was the one left to figure everything out 😭😭 and then the year after we lost our senior that knew everything about sound so my senior year was a STRUGGLE omg...bad times. but then i left that department a mess bc i could no longer care. like that lights kid wanted my job so badly? fine, fend for urself bro i'm not teaching u anything (sorry i am spiteful against that kid still LMAO) I ALSO THOUGHT ABOUT DOING TECH IN UNI!! my junior year i was fully planning to go to school to get a bfa for lighting design (new grounds was such a self insert for me LMAO) and my tech director literally pushed me to do it but then i decided i really did not want to be in these toxic stressful environments for the rest of my life 😭 BUT IF I HAD YOU!!! I DEF ACTUALLY WOULDN'T MIND <3 WE WOULD BE THE BEST DUO EVER I KNOW IT!! WE'D BOTH KNOW HOW TO DO OUR JOBS AND THAT WOULD BE LITERALLY GROUND BREAKING!! i mean even just reading ur stories i could feel the stress of like managing EVERYTHING i am so sorry for u mango anon but i am with u completely and from one tech mother to another, thank u for ur services 🫡 (i say tech mother bc WOMEN IN STEM!! in my entire four years of high school our top of the mill techies were always girls until we had this one run and props guy ruin it 🙄 he's actually the same guy who i used to like and the one who my mutual friend tried to get us to go to prom together but like i would NEVER UGHGHGH sorry he's also so frustrating to deal with i need to stop thinking about those times and this is exactly why i didn't actually go into theatre for school LMAOO) BUT YES AAA!! I WILL UPDATE YOU ON THE SUNA TECH SMAU AND I LOVE ALL OF INARIZAKI TOO <33333 haruichi furudate really put his whole budget into that team like please everyone on there is so pretty and beautiful and amazing and pookie shaped i love them sm <33 AND LOWKEY i was feeling like a stage manager reader (probably usually audio head but is stage managing this show) x lights head suna...bc i think that'd just be a crazy dynamic of her lowkey being in a higher position than him and he's just teasing and messing with her the whole time..BUT IDK and ik like theatre works differently in college but THIS IS MY WORLD AND WRITING SO I'LL DO WHAT I WANT!! i also have absolutely nothing actually planned out for the smau so who even knows LMAO THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME TO TAKE MY TIME </3 THERE'S DEFINITELY SO MUCH I NEED TO DO AND TOO LITTLE TIME UEFBIEWIOEGLN

BUT I'M GLAD U HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCES WITH PEOPLE NOT STRUGGLING we did this one horror play (which was SUCH a mess. okay let me just say this. our stage manager full on just gave up like halfway thru and would sit next to me reading vampire books and so same lights kid that kept trying to steal my job decided that it was "UP TO HIM" to save the show HIS WORDS EXACTLY I REMEMBER HEARING ABOUT THIS when literally the entire show was going fine and so basically he was like overthrowing our stage manager and was taking it upon himself to stage manage instead and give cues and just OMG THAT SHOW WAS A MESS BUT ANYWAY) and our main character just would NOT project like she was always cranky the musical we did that year she would just not sing or talk and we were like bro...ur in a musical BUT ANYWAY she wouldn't project we literally ended up hanging a mic and putting a little speaker in the booth so we could hear her bc like it was so important that we heard her lines but we couldn't when we were in a booth behind four windows and a closed door 😭😭

AND HELP YOUR ONLINE STORIES??? I GIGGLED READING ABOUT HIM TEACHING YOU SPANISH AND YOU TEACHING HIM VIET BUT ALSO THE ENTIRE FRIEND GROUP BEING OLDER WHEN YOU WERE A MINOR WAS CRAZY BUT I CAN'T EVEN JUDGE BC THAT WAS ME TOO 😭😭 I FEEL LIKE THAT'S HOW IT ALWAYS IS FOR ME I'M LIKE ALWAYS ONE OF THE YOUNGEST PEOPLE IN A FRIEND GROUP but i cannot imagine what that guy was thinking (i LOVE DISCORD NAMES HOLD ON LET ME GO FIND THE NAME OF MY GUY i think he changed it bc it's froge now...but ANYWAY IT WAS SOMETHING LAME AND SO WAS HIS ROBLOX USER IT WAS PROBABLY SOMETHING LIKE DARK KNIGHT IDK) but i cannot imagine the stress socks was going thru </33 i bet he sent that and then u were like "oh let me go translate it!" and then he was like "OMG SHE DIDN'T RESPOND AND SHE WENT OFFLINE SHE HATES ME" and just flipped and said "jk" bc THERE'S NO WAY THAT WAS JUST A JOKE LIKE U DO NOT TEACH PEOPLE CONFESSIONS LIKE DID THE TAMING OF THE SHREW TEACH U PEOPLE NOTHING THAT IS SO OLD SCHOOL!! (i also never proofread these and just go on tangents and for that, i am sorry </3)

BUT I ALSO DON'T LIKE RAW FISH DW AT ALL!! like they have a hawaiian poke bowl too or something with all raw tuna and i'm like...yeah i'm good actually... and so my only other choice is imitation crab unfortunately 😭 BUT I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING GOOD AND LIKE IT!!

MANGO ANON I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND IT WAS SO GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU <3 I ATE A BAGEL HALFWAY THROUGH THIS AS WELL (you can probably tell when i started eating it bc i was only typing with my left hand and probably didn't use as many crying emojis for a bit LMAO) AND I LOVE TALKING TO YOU!! I LOVE YOU <3 AND I HOPE YOU'RE DOING WELL!! I LOVE CHICKEN AND RICE AND I WILL MAKE SURE TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF AS LONG AS YOU TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!! DRINK LOTS OF WATER AND GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR SHIFT TOMORROW!! <3

Hey bestie! I just wanna say you’re amazing and I feel bad coming back for seconds but I’m addicted to Gotham and your art! So feel free to ignore this! But I love you and I’m very very proud of you and the community you have fostered!

! Idk if you’re still doing the 500 prompts but if you are would you please do: Gotham Penguin with a Fem reader and 🔥💔🟡🟤

Basically they’re stuck together and poor Oswald is being annoyed by reader but she only bugs him cause of her big dumb crush and it’s like “You’re cute when you’re mad Ozzy.” He’s just so skrunkly and yeah I love him.

Annoying

gotham!penguin x female!reader/huddling for warmth ;-; sav omg i am going to cry you are too sweet 💜🐧 minors DNI!! 🔞 500 words, cw: fluff mostly, grumpy pengy requests are closed • kofi link • minors DNI • tag: finnie500

The prison cell you were both stuck in offered nothing in the way of warmth, but you were pleased to be there nonetheless. If they had told you they’d be locking you up with your crush you would have gone willingly, there would have been no need for the cuffs and the brute force. In fact, they would have had a more difficult job trying to convince you not to offer yourself up to the GCPD. Especially where Oswald Cobblepot was involved.

He was impressive, charismatic, stylish, and so cute. At least you thought so. Others might find his temper, his constant outburst and aggression to be a little scary, difficult to handle. But you ere more than willing to handle it, if he would only give you the chance. Which, up to this point he had not. But now he didn’t really seem to have another option.

“You know, friend, there are two benches in this cell.”

“But it’s freezing Oswald! If we scooch up closer then we can share some body heat.”

“You’re practically on top of me though.”

“Not quite, but I could be…”

“I can’t believe no one has killed you yet, you know that?”

“How so?”

“Because you are incredibly irritating.”

It was impossible not to smile at him, pleased that he had recognised at least something about you that he had noticed, even if it was a negative. That meant he had the capacity to recognise the positives too, if you just tried hard enough. So you shuffled further into him, pressing him against the wall, your arm looped around his.

“Whose stupid idea was this? To put us together in a cell?”

You sighed dreamily as you looked up at him, head pressed against his arm.

“Fate!”

Oswald sighed, pressing his lips together, a soft growl emanating from his chest.

“You’re so very cute when you’re mad, Ozzie!”

He made an attempt at shrugging you off, but you only pressed yourself closer to him. You did note that his efforts were weak, almost for show, as though he felt he couldn’t admit now that it was pleasant to share the warmth, or to have someone so enamoured with him, that admitting it might mean he would lose. The power balance suddenly lost.

You spoke up, trying to coax some kind of positive, or even neutral, response from him.

“Is it wrong that I’m enjoying this?”

“Being trapped in a cell? Jailed? Freezing cold? Yes, probably.”

“No, silly, I mean being snuggled up to you. I have your full attention!”

He scoffed, rolling his eyes and staring away, face turned just enough that could see his cheek, tempting you, soft and covered in freckles. You strained up to press a little kiss to it, giggling as you settled back down. He didn’t say anything, either positive or negative, which you took as a good sign. Even better, he untensed, settling into your embrace, still not looking at you, but not as cold as before.

what's a lorelocke?

IM GLAD YOU ASKED

someone on the nuzlocke forums decided one day to make a variant on the nuzlocke, hence the -locke part of the name. as a part of those rules, they wanted to sort of pay homage, a bit, to every pokemon's origin, or possible origin, or something similar.

These rules would then shape how you could use the mon, or how you used your items. And there are different rules for every mon, and some even have effects when encountering/catching them, which makes the act of pokemon training a bit more involved... like creatures like that should be, probably.

Love making my mons have to follow rules for silly reasons or serious reasons in order to spice up gameplay a bit. There are many variations of lockes for a reason, but I haven't finished a lorelocke run before... and I'm doing it hardcore because I would find it easy otherwise HAHA

Here's a link to the lorelocke thread, which has a thing attached which has a whole document with EVERY MON UP TO GEN 6 WITH RULES.

Now to explain why I'm attached to the timburr. You see, she has the Chosen of Hephaestus rule, which cancels out the 'lore rules' of every rock, steel, and fire type in the party, while also being immune to lore rules of those types while catching them. There's another part of the rule, but that's the real sticking point-

I have a roggenrola, who was seeming to have an annoying rule- Whenever it reaches a level divisible by 7 (7,14,21) you must put aside a Nugget, a Precious Stone, or items worth 6,000 pokeyen, which it steals away from. That's expensive! BUT with the rule, that rule is just. nothing. I don't have to deal with it.

I also caught a darumaka, which had a rule that said it might demand a sacrifice after winning a gym battle (50/50), and it could be another pokemon, very expensive (20,000), or bringing a fighting type in to subdue it which had a chance to kill.

But I have my Timburr. and she cancels that too, since the darumaka is a Fire Type. No need to worry about sacrificing or anything just Timburr dealing with them.

Timburr also, as a part of the rule, has a thing that if you throw away items worth 15,000 and you get a pretty neat not-ingame item that lets it ignore lorerule effects for learning/using moves or switching in and out. I have a blitzle that has a rule that doesn't let it switch out if she gets confused- if I get this thing, I could put it on the little zebra and wouldn't have to worry about it!

... all in all, I got VERY lucky that she works so well, hehe. Never really used a timburr before either, and now i know how to edit sav files for ds games on my emulator, I can make her a conkeldurr, which will be NICE.

... yea

Day 13 And, I got on the wrong train 🥴

Today I organised a trip to Loulé by train to visit the Saturday artisan and fresh produce markets and, after googling what to do there, I decided to book myself into wine tasting at Quinta da Tôr.

The trains aren’t that frequent between villages and there was no local bus connection from the train station to the markets / old city.  The only bus was at 8pm!  I decided not to walk the 6.8kms as the guy in the office said it was just industrial!  

Luckily Bolt and Uber are both cheap here as I knew I’d need them to get to the Quinta (pronounced kinta, the Bolt driver told me the ‘u’ is silent).

The markets were much busier and bigger than the ones in Lagos.  Sadly the coffee roaster was closed for holidays! Many businesses do this before heading into peak season.

Google did steer me to the Folhado de Loulé (more pastry with custard in the centre) at Café Calcinha.  I got talking to the couple beside me who were originally from Amsterdam.  They told me a familiar story, much cheaper to live in Portugal and they said Amsterdam is not the same anymore “there’s Chinese names on every street now” (their words!) They did tell me golf is super expensive in the Algarve though, minimum €250 to play for the day plus lunch and drinks etc! 

I wandered around with no plan, saw people swarming at the honey stand so purchased some, perfect for a batch of granola I need to make.  

I stumbled into a fabulous art gallery.  Marilyn was fantastico, but at €50,000 she had to stay on the wall!  The shop assistant recommended sushi for lunch which I jumped at, it was €11.90 for all I could eat!

A bolt ride up to the Quinta for a tour of the vineyard and wine tasting with bread and their own olive oil.  The owners wanted to buy the land earlier than they did.  The owner wasn’t interested at the time, the land had been in his family since 1500! Then in 2011, out of the blue, the owner made contact and said he would sell but funds had to be paid the next day!

I thought the tour was very informative including little facts like the reason for the human made dirt mound around the winehouse (“adega”), to keep the building cooler in the heat. I also liked the little experiments they are doing, eg using American oak and seeing the labelling on their French oak barrels. There was mention of using egg whites to clean out the 600-1000 litre vats and this is why they cannot claim their wine is vegan! Everything is manual, including the labelling and the imprinting of any stamps they receive for medals on each label.  And the bottles I bought were only €8 and €6! The €6 bottle is an after dinner / dessert cab sav which was a mistake.  They are not sure why it ended up so sweet and when they tried to replicate it, they couldn’t! With limited bottles left and the cute label I couldn’t resist.  Amuado means sulky, a metaphor to what they imagine the wine decided to do in the vat!  The tasting and tour were €14 (depending on the wine varieties sampled) and if I wanted to I could have used the pool.  It was a lovely 3 hours.  

With the cheaper option of an Uber back to the station I made it in heaps of time.  I asked what platform, jumped on the train at the departure time, thought oh cool this is a newer train with wifi and settled in to researching my next holiday to Vietnam and then heard “last stop Faro”.  Ummmm, Faro is the wrong way! I got off with everyone else, then asked a passenger "where is this training going?", his response "Lisbon". I'm glad I got off when I did!

🤷‍♀️ I have no idea what happened, other than I got on the wrong train.  With a 90 minute wait for the next train I poked around the train station and then got back in enough time to double check I was on the right platform, on the right train! I managed to avoid having to pay again, I smiled at the ticket guy, did a Boris Johnson, laughed about how I ended up in Faro instead of Portimaõ (silly me!). I ended up back in Loulé 2 hours after I left it the first time! Yep, the trains aren’t very frequent.  Time to be bold and organise a hire car 😂

I ended up eating dinner (and opened a new bottle of wine) at a European hour!

OTP Ask Meme Andrew x Sav?

OTP ask meme that needs to exist

Send me a ship and I'll tell you...

Which one sexts like a straight white boy?

Neither, unless you count Sav’s physical notes on what she wants for sex early on or the later lingerie hint photos?

Yes, just yes

Ngl I feel a little silly for not considering that Savathûn, the literal goddess of trickery, might like the idea of a puppet ruler. I think, overall, both scenarios are pretty plausible; as we saw in Shadowkeep the Hive tend to flounder without strong leadership. We may just have to wait to see who's calling the shots on this one.

I do wonder if Savathûn plans to show Xivu Arath the worm familiar’s memory, that final nail that confirms the whole thing was built on lies. I could imagine her using it, and a revived Oryx, to say something like, “The Deep took everything from us. Our home, our choices, our father. It fed us lies and made us all unwitting pawns– the Witness would lead us to our doom like lambs to the slaughter. But the Sky has given us a choice– we can defy the will of that which would kill us all. In the Light, we can be a family again, all of us. We can be happy.”

Probably would word it more elegantly than that, this is Savathûn we're talking about after all, but I think the revelation just might shatter any faith Xivu has left in the Sword Logic. Honestly, Sav might not even need a revived Oryx at that point, just the promise of sisterhood, of not being alone anymore, may sway Xivu.

And, to be clear, I don't think this would just be some masterstroke 4D chess move to weaken The Witness– though, in part, it would act like that. No, I think Savathûn, though she’d never admit it to the likes of us, misses her siblings just as much as Xivu Arath does. As she said, “… everything my siblings and I have done has been for each other.”

today i feel some way about xivu raging and wailing in grief about oryx and how sav had spit on his legacy, vs. sav just quietly holding a ritual to bring him back without informing anyone

The other c-word - one-shot

In celebration of Hysteria’s 35th birthday, a silly ficlet about the filming of the Animal video. Inspired by Cirque de Phil by @thiswatch-lepparddef-werehi. 

924 words

-----------------------------

“Right. Everyone! Please!” The Assistant Director, worn out, stressed, and still trying to decide which is harder to organise, rockstars or rhinoceroses, waves his clipboard and tries to shout over the warring sounds of the playback track, a PA system blasting ‘Entry of the gladiators’, and, in the distance, a disgruntled elephant making its feelings known with loud trumpeting. The band and crew, however, are distracted watching Malvin balance Phil’s spare guitar on his head, so the only one really paying attention is a bored zebra named Rambo. After a while it becomes apparent, disappointingly, that Malvin is not going to injure himself in an amusing way, and the group redirect their attention to the irate man with the lists.

“Finally. Okay. We've cleared all the dung - hopefully no more mishaps for you Mr Elliott - lighting’s been tested, camera’s… hold up.” He scans round the tent, frowning. “Where’s the other one?”

“Other one?” Joe performs a quick headcount, “Oh, Steve. Might have guessed.” Turning to Sav he asks, “Is he with Phil?”

“No, Phil’s over there chatting up that acrobat lady.”

“Course he is. Well he can’t still be getting changed, he’s probably having a ciggie somewhere outside.”

“Then someone is going to need to go and find him. We need to get these shots done and cleared by 4pm or you are going to end up in THE ACTUAL CIRCUS.” He rubs his forehead in agitation, “Which is probably where you be… HEY!” Noticing that Rambo is now enthusiastically chewing one of the cables, he dashes off, waving the clipboard to very little effect.

“Well I’m not going, I just cleaned the shit off these boots!”

Sav sighs, “Fine, I’ll go. If he’s set light to another pile of straw he should be easy enough to spot.”

However, nothing seems to be on fire and it takes ten minutes of searching before he eventually tracks Steve down, lurking in a caravan.

“There you are! We’ve been waiting for you, what have you been doing?”

“Just… you know… hanging around. The Mysterious Zelda made me a cup of tea.”

“Delightful.” Sav tries not to roll his eyes. “If you’re fully refreshed, perhaps you’d like to join us for the scene in the big top.”

“Right… um… can’t I do my bit here? Or in that stable wagon maybe?”

“No. It’s a group shot. We all have to be in the tent.”

Steve could not look less enthusiastic if he tried.

“Come on. The director’s already having kittens. Or zebras!” Sav moves to the door but realises that Steve has not moved, still sitting huddled in the corner of the bench seat looking up at him with big puppy-dog eyes. “Is there a problem?”

“I… it’s just… I don’t… I don’t like… circus… things.”

“Circus things? You mean the animals? They are a bit scary but they’re well controlled…”

“No… the animals are fine… it’s the…” He suddenly adopts a manic grin and waves his cupped hands up and down in front of his face.

Confused, Sav copies the mime, and then realisation dawns. “OH. You mean CLOWNS!”

Steve winces and nods. 

“So an actual lion, you’re fine with? But a guy in make-up and big shoes freaks you out?”

“Uh huh.”

Sav is about to laugh, but he clocks the genuine agitation on his bandmate’s face and switches the grin to an expression of concern. Sitting down next to him, he pats the distressed man’s shoulder in what he hopes is a comforting manner. “Have you always been afraid of…”

“Don’t say it!”

“Err… comic performers?”

Steve shakes his head, “No. I mean, I’ve never been exactly keen on them… but then… that birthday party Phil organised. Afterwards… I started to have nightmares. The whole house full of…” he gulps, “clowns, and all chasing after me.” Flicking his eyes quickly to Sav’s face, he adds “I know it’s silly, but I just can’t shake it.”

“Oh. Well it shouldn’t be a problem, there’s no… err… jesters in the scene.”

“No. But they’re out there.” He shudders. “I’ve seen them.”

Sav is at a loss. He doesn’t have a lot of experience in this arena. Sure, Joe’s afraid of spiders, but you can just squish those. Squishing clowns seems like it would be frowned upon… Suddenly, a figure bursts through the bead curtain. She is wearing a flowing robe, about five pounds of silver jewellery, and carrying a crystal ball. The Mysterious Zelda, Sav presumes. 

An imposing figure despite the costume being topped with a head of pink curlers, Zelda points an imperious finger at Steve and booms in a Russian accent “Young man! I alone have the cure for your affliction!” She pulls one of the chains from around her wrist and dangles it in front of him. “Behold! This talisman, brought by nomadic tribesmen from ancient Mesopotamia, is proof against bards, witches, mimes, and all those who gambol about in pursuit of humour. You need no longer be afeared!” She drops the trinket into Steve’s outstretched hand. “Guard it with your life.” She directs the commanding finger to the door of the caravan, “Go now, for the talisman must be exposed to sunlight to achieve full potency.”

“Yes Madam Zelda. Thank you Madam Zelda.” Steve stumbles down the steps, never taking his eyes from the charm held on his palm.

“That’s lucky. Having that very specific talisman to hand.” remarks Sav casually.

Zelda smirks and in an accent that is suddenly more Midlands than Russian replies, “That’s right, duck. Got it at Woolworth’s!”

Tdd Ichiro first anything's with their s/o pls ♥️

━━ ∘◦ ☆ ◦∘ ━━

Pairing: Ichiro Yamada x Reader

Genre: Fluff (hints of angst)

Warnings: TDD manga spoilers

A/N: Since Ichiro was 17 in TDD, this will only be SFW! I love TDD Ichiro though, he was so much more of a hot-head but also just trying his best haha~

⋘ ──── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ──── ⋙

For the first date, I can imagine Ichiro hanging around with some delinquents after school and waiting for you to come out

once he spots you, he’s gonna muster up his courage and ask you to go out with him on a date

he wouldn’t be too mushy about it, and he wouldn’t make a confession or anything because he wouldn’t want to come off as being weak or pathetic

even though on the inside he’s being pining for you for a long time and really wants you to say yes

of course, you do say yes and the two of you have your first date at an arcade

I can absolutely imagine Ichiro getting way too into the games at the arcade, but jokes on him because you’re secretly amazing at the game he chooses to play 

and then he wants to keep playing and trying to win to impress you, but you just easily beat him

“Maybe we can try playing something else!”

“No way! Come on, Y/N, let’s play one more time.”

eventually you let him win and when he does, he gets a stuffed animal that he then promptly gives to you

he’ll say that it’s silly and he doesn’t need it but there’s a blush on his cheeks as he shoves it into your arms

afterwards, he would offer to walk you home, taking the long route to pick up some ice cream and walk through the park

your first kiss happens after you guys have been going out for a short while

Ichiro doesn’t want to spring anything and make you feel uncomfortable, but he also really wants to kiss you so every time he drops you off at home he’s just fighting with himself debating if he should kiss you

eventually it happens when the two of you are walking home after watching a movie and as you turn to say goodbye to him he just blurts out ‘can I kiss you’

at first you’re a little shocked because he kind of screams it at you, but then you smile at him and nod and the two of you awkwardly share your first kiss

your first present is actually something you give to each other for Christmas 

unofficially, Ichiro loves to give you lots of small things like paper mache bracelets and little stuff he picks up here and there

expensive presents aren’t a huge thing for either of you because you’re young and don’t have much money, but for Christmas, you buy him some new video games and he buys you something you’ve been eyeing for a while

likewise, the first holiday you two spend together is Christmas when you spend the majority of the day hanging out with Ichiro and meeting the other Yamada brothers at the orphanage

your first pet name happens when you’re hanging out with Ichiro’s friends and they dare you to eat the super, meg, crazy hot and spicy ramen that none of them have ever been able to eat 

and of course, you’re never one to back down from a challenge so you buckle down and manage to eat the whole thing, trying not to cry from the spice as the boys cheer you on

Ichiro is so proud of you afterwards though and throws his arm around you, calling you babe and at first the two of you pause, but it just feels like the right moment to start calling each other pet names so neither of you really mind

the first time you see him cry is out of frustration when he tries to get Jiro and Saburo out of the orphanage but fails to do so

you hold him as he cries into your shirt and that’s also when you learn about his parents and what’s happening with 

the first fight you two have is when he meets you for lunch one day covered in cuts and bruises from a fight he had the prior day

he says that he was defending someone, but you tell him that he can’t keep getting into fights to protect other people and that you care about him too much and don’t want to watch him get hurt

he argues that he’ll never back down from a fight if it means he can save someone and the two of you leave each other 

the first makeup is when you knock on his door the next day and it’s clear that you’ve both been crying and as soon as he pulls you inside, you’re hugging each other tightly and apologizing

he promises not to be so argumentative right off the bat and you tell him that you understand his desire to save people and that’s just another reason you like him so much

the first ‘I love you’ happens after Ichiro comes back from Chuuoku after he had to battle Samatoki to get his brothers back

he’s pretty distraught and after losing his best friends and realizing that TDD will never fight together again, he wants to cling to the only things he has left that he loves - his brothers, and you

so he confesses that he loves you and you accept it, saying that you love him too
