A list of things I've done that pissed my mother off, but as Batfam + Team Phantom edition
Bruce: got into a verbal fight and held a year-long grudge at my teacher for not giving me a fair grade at an annual competition, and proceeded to go out of my way to win said competition next year
Alfred: refused to eat her food, got told to cook for myself and did so, ending up with both my dad and sister saying my banana bread was the best thing they've eaten
Dick: swung on the bungee rope over the dry riverbed turned into junk yard, fell, miraculously did not die, went to that same bungee rope the next day
Babs: organized a stake out, found out which neighbor had been messing with trash bins when everyone blamed raccoons, called said neighbor a raccoon for the next three weeks
Jason: kept reading books at night with a flashlight, when said flashlight was taken away, lit a candle and accidentally almost set the house on fire
Tim: fled to a different country across the globe without telling anyone except my sister, who's been 7 at the time, and did not respond to any calls or messages for three months
Steph: picked a dress with glitter for a dinner with her relatives after specifically being told not to, was forced to change, but took my revenge by exploding a glitter bomb in the car when we have already arrived at the relatives' house
Cass: responded with 'sorry I didn't quite catch that could you repeat' to her very long rant, over text
Damian: successfully clawed and gnawed at a classmate's face after they destroyed my painting
Duke: was the leader of school rebellion over the 'no wigs allowed in school' rule in sixth grade, managed to convince two teachers to join, ended up with the rule taken down
Danny: accidentally shocked myself with a tazer I stole from her handbag, cried, when she came to ask what happened, showed her by repeating the accidental electrocution
Dan: pushed my maternal aunt into the pool and watched her flounder, knowing very well she is a bad swimmer, when confronted about it later argued it was the kiddie part of the pool and she could not have drowned
Jazz: told her I was in love with a girl she disliked, when she voiced her opinion on it, made a whole argument about how I'm supposed to learn from my own mistakes and not from her experiences
Dani: zoned out while she was yelling at me, came back to her saying 'you're no better than a pig', impulsively told her 'it's because of genetics' and started oinking
Sam: painted my nails and toes on my left hand and left foot black, dyed my hair purple, but only on the left side, as well as got a piercing on the left eyebrow, while the whole right side was left 'natural'
Tucker: learned to change the wi-fi password and held power over the internet every time she took my electronics away by asking a friend that lived nearby to come by my house and using their phone to change the password
Bonus:
Selina: repeatedly stolen antique jewelry from grandma because she, in turn, stole it from my other grandma
Valerie: turned rogue, teamed up with the opponent team in lasertag and helped them win over my own teammates
Talia: threatened a person I will carve their eyeballs out with a spoon if they ever as much as look at my sister funny again, a month later gave them a decorated silver teaspoon as a birthday gift
Jack Fenton: failed my driving license test seven times, three of which were on purpose
Maddie: ruined her plans of my picture-perfect marriage by friendzoning a son of her friend, claiming I'm saving my love only for the important things like mozzarella
Vlad: scared my sister shitless by telling her a scary story about ghosts under her bed and then hiding under her bed and making 'boo' noizes
Clockwork: purposefully made her experience deja vu by wearing the exact same clothes and greeting her the exact same way in the exact same place for three days in a row

Hi! How are you? Hope you are doing well! I didn’t see any mention of you ask box is open or not so take your time to answer this! ♥️
Id like to ask for a scenario or Headcanon with the tmnt boys x reader about a situation that happened to me recently, I was venting about work with a friend and she out of the blue just “can I take a picture of you? You look so pretty right now” and proceeded to tell me she felt like she was living the “bla bla bla place name, back story stuff” meme? (If you are not aware it’s basically a meme where someone is going on a full rant and the other can only see them through being pretty and ethereal, even when talking about something super serious 😂) I busted out laughing when she mentioned, I thought about the boys going through the same would be super funny, Maybe their crush doing mundane things and they are literally heartened for it?
If it’s too complicated to do allllllll of them I’d like ask for this to be a donnie scenario then 🫶 I know you are a ralphie girlie (which I adore your stuff for him like it’s so good??? Seriously I’m eating it up your recent posts) but if you feel comfy doing it all or just Donnie it will be more than welcomed!
thank you and hope you have a good day!
I'm unfamiliar with the meme, but I think it's from the LEGO movie? Anyway, I hope this is okay. 😂
Distraction
Donnie x reader
No warnings, just fluff
It didn't take much, and it was so damn frustrating. Especially while he was working.
Donnie restarted the sequence again from the beginning. He needed to get these disks calibrated before the next time they tangled with the foot, but for SOME reason YOU exist, and your soul purpose in life is to torture him.
A scent, a sound, the smallest indication of your existence pulls ALL his focus.
Right now, you're in the living room watching a movie with Mike and Raph, and Donnie just has this *last thing* to finish before he can disengage and join you, but now you're laughing and he's lost count again.
He sighs, ripping his glasses from his face and rubbing his eyes. Replacing his glasses, he glares at the lab's door. He knows he should close it, of course he should close it, closing it is the only way he's going to get anything done.
But the door was in view of the couch and you'd think that was rude, right? He didn't want to be rude...
No. You'd get it. Especially if he could finish up quickly and join you for the rest of the movie. Okay, he was gonna close the door. He nods resolutely to himself before scowling.
An IQ of 187 and somehow you're constantly turning him into an idiot.
He sets down the disk he's working on and stands, walking over to the door. He hears you laugh again and makes the mistake of looking up at you.
Whatever movie you were watching forgotten, Mike and Raph are listening to you tell a story about something that happened at work this week.
It's inane, something about an argument in the break room over the new coffee machines, but the colorful fairy lights scattered about the lair have caught in your hair and eyes, and he is trapped in your spectrum.
It occurs to him that you can't see it. The depth of you. The reds and pinks in your skin when it flushes with laughter, the blue cableing of your veins beneath. Tetrachromacy is an advantage that he's not sure he ever fully appreciated until just now. And it breaks his heart.
There has to be a way to show you. There's light filtering technology that help people with colorblindness. It couldn't be that hard to retrofit a pair of those glasses to fit custom lenses. He'd need to examine your eyes specifically, of course, to ensure his measurements are correct, but he already has the glass grinding equipment, and people are constantly throwing away frames, and it takes him a moment to realize that the room has gone quiet.
He blinks and his eyes refocus to find the three of you staring at him, standing dumbly in the doorway, staring at you.
"You good bro?" Mikey asks.
"Yeah," he squeaks, before clearing his throat, "Yeah," he corrects, "I'm good. I'm just gonna, uh... finish up in here. I'll be out in a few."
You smile at him and he nearly trips over... the door? God, he's a mess. He closes it quickly before he can make an even bigger ass of himself.
He walks back over to his current project and sits back down. He stares blankly at the laptop and scattered pieces of tech for a few moments before sighing heavily and pushing everything aside.
He pulls out a notebook and starts sketching a pair of glasses.

just remembered i can rant on here yippee >///< have a rant abt takashi shirogane bc im that man's number 1 hater, this will be horribly written and disjointed bc i jus need 2 get this out of my very soul, im tweaking SO BAD, a conversation w red is not enuff.. im homophobic to this man and this man alone. tomato tomato tomato shiro
also im a certified keith apologist that boy does no wrong free him ...
can you imagine taking in a little orphan boy thats clearly craving stability and proceeding to utilize him as a tool/replacement for you to live vicariously through because you cant accept retiring fully despite health concerns EVERYONE is telling you to not ignore ....... ??? not to mention him abandoning keith the first chance he gets even though he knows full well keith has literally nothing besides him (i find it hard to believe he wasnt aware of the unfair treatment keith was going through) (also side note, abandoning adam was also crazy..... adam shouldve lived jus so shiro would have to face the consquences but yk) (free adam he did nothing WRONG) (someone write a fic where adam lives n confronts shiro im begging)
also does anyone else find it suspicious that keith never mentions adam and vice versa, same w matt/pidge, shiro is shown to be very close to the holts (side note, if you ship shiro x matt DNI, that boy is a CHILD), so shiro was just hiding the fact he adopted a whole kid... insane behavior? methinks? also on that mentioning the holts, he treats them way better than he does the child he ADOPTED, constantly prioritizes them and treats them liek actual family. red worded it best when he said that shiro views the holt as family n keith is just a recruit to him ,,, punching the AIRR
shiro not once ever shows unconditional care towards keith, i know people will argue with that but like just think about it, everytime he shows some sort of care or concern towards the kid its usually followed up by it benefiting him, the constant "you cant run off / you cant die / etc etc. because you need to carry on my legacy" ???!??/.1/1/ hate that!
keith sees shiro as his savior essentially liek a god who can do no wrong, we constantly see this by the way he talks about the man and how far hes willing to go for him while shiro holds him at arm's length and constantly neglects him?!?!? idk why everyone jus treated that as cute ????? shiro is a horrible guardian to keith man ,, he encourages destructive behaviors and keith's insecurities purely bc it benefits him !!!!! straigfht up grooming the kid into being the perfect soldier/student/you get the point for the garrison
i coudl rant for hours and hours abt this but liek im genuinely so mad my brain is blank,, extreme hater hours, might add onto this hashtag later everytime i get mad about him, again this is a mess, you will prolly hear this rant a million times over from me, slightly more well constructed next time hopefully,,,,,,
#sorry im a hater#genuinely tweaking#i hate this man#takashi shirogane#count ur fucking days#i swear to god#when i get you#spoilers#vld spoilers#sorry oopsie#vld#voltron#keith kogane#shiro voltron#adam voltron#matthew holt#pidge holt#please hear me out on this#please#im right and we all know it#i just cant word it#u get the idea

"ive always hated you."
Pairing
König x gn reader (male leaning)
Warnings
violence, no detailed gore, König hates reader, reader hates König, König is an asshole, suggestive at the end (?), I lost motivation half way, this is based of a bot, is this an outlet for my own rage against him? yes.
Summary
You two hate each other, now your in a locker. Together.
The moment you stepped foot into Kortac, is the moment you hated despised könig. He was so cocky for no reason. Always finding out something wrong in your stance, seeing to the millimeter how much you missed the target, how your plan you spent days on would fail miserably, etc. It's not like you could teach him a lesson, he's your colonel afterall.
It didn't help how you captain didn't take your countless fights seriously. Thinking it's some common bittering. If bittering was wanting to stab him, he would be correct.
Horangi found it funny how you two hated each other so much for basically no reason. Always side eyeing each other, an accidental nudge turning into a fight scene until someone (multiple people) pulled you off each other, choosing ech other to spar just to show how much they could hurt them, etc.
Kreuger found it funny at first, then it just became annoying how you guys would yell at each other on missions, almost costing their lives. Him and hutch had gone to the captain countless times. Just being met with a chuckle and "they'll fight it out one day"
Nikto found it annoying at day one. He agreed with both of you and found both of you annoying. He didn't care at all for anyone. He half listened when kreuger ranted about you two.
That's until captain himself had enough and sent both of you on a small misson together in hopes you two can work together for once. When you both found out, you two's defenses on why not to go fell on deaf ears. For once you two agree on something atleast.
You two didn't uther a word to each other the whole ride. Just staring with loath. When you arrived at the location. You both hopped out. The misson was simple, enter building, kill some guards, take Intel and leave.
Easy right? Yeah..
You were first. You plunged you knife into the guards throat. The corpse dropped to the ground as you snatched the keys. You motioned könig to come. You whispered something under your breath. "Hm?" The Austrian giant hummed. "Nothing." You said back stoic, not wanting to cause a fight now. You two proceeded. Until someone got away (definitely königs fault). They alerted the rest as a alarm rang through the building. You make a run for it, intending to leave König behind. But just like everytime, he ruins that. He caught up to you and pushed you into a locker with quick thinking. He also cramped himself in there. "Smart ass plan, big gu-" you got cut off by a hand covering your face (literally). Your two hands held his on your face as you looked up unamused. He brought to pointer finger to his mouth, a sign for you to shut up. As if you can talk. The sounds on tens of footsteps sound. When the sound was right infront of your locker, it stopped and decreased again. König took his hands off your face. "Fuck you." You said as he did. "Shut up, just because their gone doesn't mean you should be your loud ass self." He said quietly with his stupid Austrian accent. You were about to say something, yet you realized you promised yourself you wouldn't argue with him on this misson. You just nodded resentfully. Staying quiet.
After what felt like 5 minutes of being pressed to each other in awkward silence. You talked again, "when are we getting out?" "When I want too." The annoying voice you heard to much today echoed in the locker. You grunted and tried to move. Before könig grabbed your hips to stop you. "Stop moving.." He grunted. You were confused and tried to get out his grip, causing him to grip you tighter and press you more against the locker wall, if it was even possible. You pressed himself against the other wall. Still holding you, you too were still touching. "If you were just.. smaller.. this would have been way easier." You sighed, giving up on typing to escape. "You think I don't know that?" His hateful voice gave his answer. You sighed. This was going to be a long misson..
TY FOR READING! IF U HAVE A REQUEST OR ASK CHECK MY INTRODUCTION AND GO TOR IT! I DONT JUDGE 🩷🩷

modern kirby has some weird moral standards
magolor. wanted to take over the universe, but got mind-controlled and possessed by the master crown. redeemed. karma's a bitch huh. i have no problems with this tbh, he did everything he could to make amends and destroyed the crown himself
sectonia. used to be a nice queen, but stared into the dimension mirror for so long that it drove her completely mad. started to feed on other creatures and copy parts of their appearances for thousands of years to fill the gnawing void of self-hatred and body dysmorphia the mirror brought out in her. this gave her an existential crisis so bad that she LITERALLY BEGS FOR DEATH when she realizes how far gone she is. irredeemable. dead
haltmann. used to be a self-made inventor and family man, but tragically lost his daughter to another dimension and got his mind and memories eaten by an eldritch supercomputer. regretted everything in his final moments. irredeemable. dead
hyness. used to be a dark matter worshipping wizard before he got banished. proceeded to throw an aeons-long hissy fit about it, growing more unhinged and vengeful until he concluded that he needed to summon a destroyer god to kill everyone in the universe. had countless opportunities to stop what he was doing. threw up his hands and went "nah". abused his followers MULTIPLE times, ON SCREEN no less, to the point where in the japanese version it's implied that they only came to another dimension to get revenge on him for their terrible treatment. performed a fucking SACRIFICIAL RITUAL on said followers against their own will. didn't show one ounce of remorse. just doubled down. is an obvious threat to all existence. aww he's not evil! let's be best friends forever!
elfilis. assimilated planets for the thrill of conquest. bit off more than they could chew. got captured. got experimented on for thirty years until a lab accident basically turned their frontal lobe into a separate person (elfilin), causing them to revert back to the physical and mental age of a young child. turned into a tourist attraction. has been isolated for so long that they hear the announcer's voice in their nightmares. irredeemable. dead
people say that elfilis is the worst kirby villain and tbh so did i for a while, but upon further reflection idk if fecto forgo can even help the way they are. solitary confinement fucks people up in ways we can't even start to comprehend
hyness doesn't have that excuse no matter what he says in his ramblings. he's a cult leader surrounded by legions of loyal followers, and they all live in a space station the size of a fucking solar system. the man has no excuse he's just a hater
(edit: before someone tries to say that he got corrupted by void. his rant mentions in the japanese text that void is "swayed by the one who awakens him", and the lore shows that depending on what emotions and energies void gets exposed to before incarnating, he can be good or evil. in other words, void termina and his vessel, the jamba heart, are so dangerous and toxic to other beings BECAUSE OF HYNESS)

Literally started this blog just to say how hypocritical F1 – both the people working in it, and the sport itself – is becoming. The main 3 things I want to address is: no.1 women in motorsport, no2 the ongoing genocide in palestine and no3 F1's disallowance of anything political, yet enabling the absolute political shitshow that was the 2024 miami gp.
Numéro 1: I just think its absolute bullshit that the FIA genuinely created a whole ‘Women in Motorsport Commission’, assigned SIX STRONG ambassadors to it, and THEN proceeded (come 2023) to launch a wholeass unfair investigation onto one of them, based on the MOST groundless claims?? Like wtf?? (Talking abt Susie Wolff here). Also, the whole Cristian Horner situation really showed just how much they care about women working under them, bc tell me why the possible victim in his situation was the one getting SUSPENDED, while this possible filth of a man is still parading shamelessly around the paddock?? Like??? AND SOME OF THE DRIVERS COMMENTS ON THE SIRUATION?? pissed me off so much u dont even understand. Anyway, my last point on this convo is how women should ALSO be taken accountable of their actions, and not just glossed over because they’re ‘women’, over here im specifically talking abt Bianca Bustamante and her liked tweet which calls lance stroll autistic… girl :| and her apology was so atrocious as well. T-T
Numéro 2: The fact that not ONE driver (excluding Lewis Hamilton — that man is so much more than a driver) has spoken up/ posted about the situation pisses me off SO much bc?? THOUSANDS of people are dying, and with the platform you have, the fans you have, you could have such a positive effect! This is ESPECIALLY targeted on the drivers so I FULLY KNOW have control of their accounts (Charles Leclerec, Esteban Ocon, Lando Norris [GOD DO I HAVE ALOT TO SAY ABT HIM], Pierre Gasly, etc) bc tell me why drivers are fully capable of uploading a post 2 years ago stating how the WHOLE of F1 stands with Ukraine (which i do applaud them for) but cant say SHIT abt the same situation occuring in Gaza, but SO much worse?? Lando can genuinely go f himself, bc as much as i used to adore him there’s no way he did NOT know abt the atrocities happening in Palestine, no way he did not know abt the company boycott when he decided to fully display that Starbucks logo on his little reel. And IF (literally a 0.0000001% chance, bc by then a 1000 articles were already written on it and the WHOLE world was aware) he genuinely didn’t know, then that is just ignorant as fuck. Icel. Anyway, literally all drivers should be held accountable, no matter if they’re ur favs or not; I like Carlos a lot but that doesn’t mean i dont get the ick every time i think abt the fact he’s stayed completely silent on the matter. OH MY GOD, DONT get me started on lance stroll and his confirmed (yes, i DO fact check) Zionist girlfriend, like?? Ew.
Can i also just say, that if any of u are gonna msg me saying ‘oH bUt NeP, thE FIA BanNeD AnY anD aLl PoliTiCaL StAtEmEnTS’ Shut up. If you guys could just READ the rest of the statement, you'd know that this rule only applies to when the drivers are ACTIVELY in the paddock. The FIA has literally included the fact that driver can do WHATEVER the want, stand up for WHOEVER they want in their personal lives – which brings me to my next point,
Numéro 3: The FIA bans any and all political statements in the paddock, (without their written consent) YET INVITES TRUMP (a man who has been charged with EIGHTY EIGHT criminal offenses) to the race, is the most disgusting and hypocritical thing ive seen in all my years of watching F1. And don't even get me started on all the shit lando said abt him, like bro?? What are you saying?? Why are you saying these things?? I get u cant speak bad abt him, but that does NOT mean u need to praise him to the sun and back. T-T
That's my rant! Additional reminder abt ppl bringing up how '*retired driver (insert name)* would NOT stand for this, and would post and talk ALL abt palestine if they were still racing,' this is a reminder that those drivers are still alive and well, with WORKING platforms and can STILL do all those things now if thry CHOOSE to :]

okay no bc i actually need to see abuela having a meaningful talk with christopher about how shannon wasn’t a good mother and that he’s old enough to know the truth rather than eddie just over-romanticizing the whole thing
christopher does not need to be shamed for being upset at his mom leaving. the whole “she didn’t leave, she died 🥺” argument is just factually untrue when she fully intended to leave again before she had her accident
he does not need to be coddled and told about how hard it was for her when she was actively being just as ableist as ramon and helena. he is 13 years old; if he can make a decision on where he lives, he can hear the truth of how awful his mother was so that maybe he can actually provide sufficient context to the actions his dad has taken
yes, she was very young when christopher was born, and no eddie was not a perfect husband/father in the beginning; but the point is she didn’t even give him a chance to even begin processing his PTSD when he cane back, immediately vilifying him for everything before doing the same exact thing as what… petty revenge? giving him a taste of his own medicine? you’re an adult woman with a son who needed you and you walked out on him because you didn’t want the stress. okay, that’s fine, that’s your choice
but don’t show up once he’s older demanding to see him because “he’s my son too” and then proceeding to shame eddie, the one who HAS been there for him after you left, for something he already has made clear he regrets, and has also atoned for by stepping up and actually taking responsibility rather than shirking them the moment it got ‘too hard’ when his parents would have been more than willing to let him do
and then to try and manipulate him with the whole “he’s my son” “we can be a family again” bullshit as a way to get back into his pants— only to dip as soon as things start to get serious again?
and on top of that, the “she was just a girl” argument doesn’t even hold up because yeah, she WAS just a girl. she’s not just a girl anymore. she’s a grown adult woman shirking her responsibility because she doesn’t want to be a mother. That’s all well and good; she doesn’t have to be a mother. But once you make that decision, don’t go crawling back acting like you weren’t the one to actively decide to leave. You’re an adult, making adult decisions, and you need to handle the adult consequences of those adult decisions.
sorry no one will ever be able to convince me to like shannon and im sick of the writers trying to force rose tinted glasses on her existence bc of tim’s obsession with bringing devin back out of nowhere every two seconds
anyway sorry for the shannon rant i saw thay post i reblogged and it just reminded me how much anger i hold towards her for everything she did and how i hate it when people are like “oh she changed she wanted to try again 🥺” when she quite literally didn’t, as is evident by the way she immediately tried to run away again the moment she had to be an adult.
also there is no way buck would EVER look at the way she treated chris and eddie and then actively be friends with her. friend-ly maybe, civil at best, but he would never look at the lasting hurt she caused those two and actively chose to persue a friendship with her.
anyway getting off my anti-shannon soap box and i just needed to get that off my chest lamo

I have another request for a very niche character lol;
Vox’s unnamed assistant x reader. All I’m asking, is a mutual crush between the two but can’t be together because of some claus in their contracts or whatever. So they work around it and are like;
“A date? No, no! We’re not going on a coffee date! It’s uhhhhh lunch break so we’re going as coworkers!” *They’re dressed up a little too nicely*
“You saw us kiss? Pffft don’t be ridiculous! He just came out of the water and needed help breathing-“ “He’s a fish, y/n” “—a fish out of water!!! I was helping him breathe!”
Idk funny cute fluffy things like that lol
-Self proclaimed anon ✖︎
Bonus:
“Is that a hickey on readers neck-?”
“N-no! That’s a bruise! I accidentally fell on them. Mouth first. And sucked—“
had to answer this one as soon as I could because what the flip. one voice line and 10 seconds of screen time I know I said niche but GUYS ✊😭 I respect it I get it he's a cutiepie!!
So !! going for a different style for this one since I've got limited content to work with, so headcanons + a little blurb if that's quite alright.
I've seen people call him Papermint, so I'll do exactly that !! Now introducing (probably) the world's first Vox's assistant X reader
I Can See You (Vox's Assistant x Fem!Reader)
Headcanons:
• I feel as though the more the two of you try to hide your relationship, it grows more obvious to those around you, not even a child would fall for your excuses.
Mouth to mouth...? On a fish? Y/N.. that's not how it works :(((
• After a long day of your jobs, the two of you find each other cuddled up on the couch, running your fingers through his hair as he rants about how overworked he is. Ten times out of ten, he'll do the same for you once he's destressed.
• Rubs his cheek against yours frequently, it's how fish show love to one another!
• I like to think he has some water manipulation powers, so blows some heart shaped bubbles towards you (what a cutiepie)
• malewife, so pathetically in love with his s/o it puts moxxie to shame, though his workload from Vox is.. a lot! He always finds the time of day to get you lunch, or bring you a coffee whilst at work
• tail wags when he's around you, a not so subtle indicator of your relationship especially when you're visiting Vox's floor.
• The two of you got caught by Valentino on a date once, it was an anxious rest of the night for the two of you, that toothy grin filling you with fear. Val proceeded to not tell his fellow Vees, he lives for the drama. Besides many of his employees are dating on the sidelines he just doesn't gaf until it gets in the way of their work.
Blurb:
“Shush! Someone will catch us if we're not quiet enough!” You whispered sharply, yet rather obvious that you were holding back a giggle.
Hidden away in an unused room was you and someone rather unlikely, Vox’s very own assistant, Papermint.
The two of you usually had to meet in secret like this, the Vee’s had a rule within their contracts stating co workers could not date one another. Whilst Papermint — obviously — worked for Vox as his personal assistant, you ran errands for Velvette, meaning the two of you would bump into each other frequently, opting to do whatever task your V made you do, together, teamwork makes the dream work afterall!
It started as little waves as you passed one another in the tower, to soft smiles, to having small chats in the lobby. The two of you tried to keep it professional, knowing the strict rule in your contract, but it was as if the two of you were magnets, constantly drawn to one another. The thrill of a secret relationship was like an addiction to you, it was dizzying.
Pulling him into one last kiss, you prepared yourself to leave and finally get yourself back to work. Giving a soft giggle towards your fishy boyfriend.
"I'll see you after work."
And with that you left the room, straightening out your skirt. You did remain just down the hall, chatting away with one of Velvette's models as Papermint left the room.
Coincidentally, he made it to the Elevator at the exact time as his boss.
"Is that lipstick..?" Vox asked him, causing the fish's face to flush. Oh how you wished to see. He must be so flustered, it was adorable to see him in such a state.
Eventually you had to make your way up to Velvette's floor, she must be exploding with impatience by now.
"Ma'am, anything you need me to do?" You spoke, approaching Velvette who looked, rather overwhelmed, you had no clue why she didn't just call you, but the fashionista was quite the stubborn one.
"Ugh. Y/N there you are, I need you to follow up on Melissa, I haven't seen her for a few days and if she doesn't show up in an hour I will kill her myself. Oh! Fuck's sake I forgot Valentino tore apart my best model, go see if she's strung herself back together I can't waste any more time. She knows how to work a runway and-" She paused, squinting towards you.
"Is that a fucking hickey? What are you, twelve? You best not be shagging anyone here in your spare time, I do not have the fucking time to find a replacement for you."
You gulped, okay Vel was definitely in a worse mood than usual, you simply nodded
"I'll get on that ma'am, it's also just a bruise.. you know how rough the streets are.." You quickly turned on your heel, bolting to the elevator.
"I'm not fucking stupid Y/N! Watch it before you get fired!" She called out after you.
You'd have to talk to Papermint afterwards, neither of you wanted to jeopardise your careers, so perhaps everything had to be kept under the collar from now on. But for now, the two of you were each others secret mission.

Sonic and shadow dynamic in sonic prime
Yes, i am doing this rant now because it's been on my mind too much and i need to talk about it.
Look at them, silly guys ⬇
So we all know that Sonic and Shadow are always seen as rivals right? Off topic, but personally i hope in Sonic x Shadow Generations Sega changes that but we'll just have to wait and see. In Sonic prime, they are obviously shown off as rivals, starting off having a fight and Shadow being pissed of with Sonic through out pretty much all of the second season because he shattered the prism and broke reality but we also see that they do have to team up because of that. We get to the last episode of season 2 and the whole 'Nines betrayal' takes place. Shadow did have every right to be annoyed at Sonic and he does say ''Sonic, i told you Nine couldn't be trusted.'' Of course pulling the 'i told you so' line shows he's very much bothered about the situation they're in, but then he goes on to say ''Whatever he's up to, it's causing this world to fracture.'' in saying that, trying to make Sonic come to his senses of what's around him and to stop focusing on the situation he's put himself and Shadow in. He wants Sonic to stop his classic way of thinking about the present situation he's in and to start thinking about the reality around them. Shadow also knew his and Sonics lives were more important in that moment than the shards and he wanted Sonic to see that to. Then of course Sonic goes on to say ''I don't understand, why would he-'' but getting cut off by Shadow ''Pull yourself together! This mountain is decaying, and it's going to take us with it. We have to run.'' Then proceeding to take Sonic by the hand and dragging him out the mountain, unwillingly. Shadow doesn't care about the fact Sonic is upset that Nine took the shard, he cares about the fact his and Sonics lives are at higher risk.
Through out all of that part, it's shown that Shadow wants Sonic to be like him. To have a straight forward tactic, to think before he acts. This is clearly shown when they're escaping Ghost Hill. Shadow is saying out the plan he has in mind to Sonic to make sure that they BOTH make it out alive. Ahh teamwork...
He then again, has to pull Sonic out of spiralling down a 'my friends are gone and it's all my fault moment.' when Sonic sees his ghost friends. This time Shadows face is completely unamused. He see his tactic of trying to get Sonic to focus on safety didn't work. ''I thought we went over this.'' blatantly shows that. He tries stop Sonic getting any closer but Sonic just pushes him out the way. Then, when Sonics ghost friends start decaying, it's shown then that Sonic has FINALLY come to his senses and knows they need to get out and get safe.
Just in this episode it's shown that Sonic thinks on his feet, plans are a big no no for him and that's exactly what Shadow is the opposite of. Shadow is the guy who makes sure they're safe and are able to stay alive, yes he still thinks on his feet but not the way Sonic does. Shadow takes the lead in a lot of season 3 because of that.
I would go on and on for the whole entire season about this but i'm not, because i want to talk about the ending.
Ahh yes, the ending we all know and love. Sonic sacrifices himself and nearly dies in Shadows arms on the way back to Green Hill.
WE LITERALLY SEE SHADOWS EARS LOWER AND HIS FACE DROP. HE CARES ABOUT SONIC!!! That care is shown in tiny parts through the whole season, Shadow getting Sonic out of the Grim so Nine doesn't use sonic energy, helping in the battle blah blah blah. But this is hits the nail on the head. All the small build up of 'Oh Shadow's helping Sonic, that wasn't very expected' is finally used.
Shadow taking the lead in situations where Sonic could and probably would get himself killed is Shadow caring about Sonic... and himself. Yes of course Shadow cares about his own life and getting Green Hill back and is probably still pissed off at sonic through out all of this still but it's shown way less.
In a way, they're shown as team mates, the beginning of friends... who are mean to each other BUT WE MOVE PAST THAT.
I know their whole shmuck is that they're rivals and they hate each other but it's finally nice to see that they can work together like in the ending of SA2. I hope to see that again in Sonic x Shadow Generations and not just them fighting constantly because it gets boring. Also not to mention, Rouge is SEEN helping Team Sonic fight Eggman in Sonic Prime so, may i say Shadow is a bit left out there he should join in the fighting instead of brooding the little grump.
Anyways i think that's all i have to say, if i repeated myself my bad but i'm very good at that.
This is also not me shipping Sonic and Shadow. I don't mind people shipping them, i get why but i hate the people who are rlly weird about it...
ANYWAYS BYE

Characters with wasted potential : shota aizawa (rant)
Look I first got into the series because of the idea of dadzawa but now i can confirm that it is just a fanon concept that people made(one that I wish was actually true). I have many problems with Aizawa's character that hori never really focuses on:
HE IS A BAD TEACHER. It is without doubt that aizawa shota is cannonically a horrible teacher who clearly favourites students like bakugo and shinso while clearly treating other students like izuku unfairly. One of the things that makes him a bad teacher is the whole expulsion thing. Something like that is very big as it completely ruins a perfect record which can ruin lives AND CREATE VILLAINS. Even his old students fear him and have a bad impression of him which doesn't help the "oh dadzawa" or "aizawa is a good teacher stuff". Shota can and will protect the students but that's it in terms of teaching his students something and taking care of them he rarely does that.
THE WAY HE INTERACTS WITH OTHER CHARACTERS. Iam talking about both sides here. He favours bakugo and goes to extreme lengths to defend him even though the public actually have a point and even nedzu states that the reason that they kidnapped Katsuki was because of his behaviour. It then makes no sense for him to keep on criticising midoriya instead of actually doing something and helping him handle OFA (he is one of the best teachers to help him with combat and his quirk) even if he doesn't know about OFA specifically he can still train and help midoriya which he never does or never offers. The only time we see him train a student it isn't even someone from HIS OWN CLASS which adds to the whole he looks like a bad teacher.
HIS BACKSTORY. Let's be honest the whole oboro and kurogiri thing had potential but it's all their just for shota and to make him a lot more sympathetic. It's literally Horikoshi's way of giving us a reason to justify shota's on paper expulsions and why he is so distant which doesn't work. His backstory had potential but was dealt with the wrong way to the point where later in the series all that shota is reduced to is the nomu oboros friend.
HIS INCONSISTENCY. Eraserheads character is very inconsistent like he goes from being this bad teacher who threatened to expel any student for coming last on a test and not showing heroic potential to him somehow forging yuuga for being the traitor and sympathising with him?!?! To me this development kind of comes out of nowhere especially when you realise that he KNEW he treated izuku badly and THEN PROCEEDED TO NOT APOLOGISE AT ALL?!!!?!?!. There are many other things inconsistent with his character like the way he treats all might and his friends like istg midnight is your friend so why you shutting present mic up for being angry and grieving midnights death?!!?!!
Honestly, I don't think Aizawa was supposed to come of as a bad teacher and a bad person but because of Horikoshi's writing it came out that way which is sad. I think horikoshi wanted him to be something similar to kento nanami (jjk) and hatake Kakashi (Naruto) but that didn't work out as seen here. You can improve this by:
Making him a good teacher. Show him reading his students files and trying to learn more about his students before meeting them which would help with his introduction scene where we see him waiting outside of the class to see how everyone is settling in. Have him use his rational deceptions but not make the consequences something huge like expulsion ( a transfer or a visit to the principles office would have the same effect). Let him acknowledge bakugos behaviour and have him call out stuff he sees. It makes no sense to me why anyone espe shota who got bullied by someone just like bakugo likes and constantly defends bakugo. HAVE HIM ACKNOWLEDGE/ LEARN MORE ABOUT HIS CLASS; he should know stuff like how secretive and closed off shoto is or how unusually aggressive bakugo is. Have him give actual concequences to his class that make sense like with mineta and bakugo they should of been dropped long ago or at least been sent to nedzus office so he can deal with them. FOR A GUY SO LOGICAL SHOTA DOESN'T SEEM TO DO ANY OF THIS!!!
Change the way we see him talk to and interacting with different characters. Iam all for having him be someone closed off but someone who still cares because that's the something that the narrative tries to do but fails at. The narrative also tries to make him as this guy who is scared to form real bonds as a trauma response to what happend with oboro but ironically he always ends up caring and trying to protect people in his own way which is an interesting plot point but fails. I would be content in keeping both of those plot ideas as a part of his character however, to do that have him not have any FAVOURITES and just slowly/unconsciously have him build bonds with the students in his class (can start to happen after the usj) and for shinso have him build a bond after shinso manages to get into the hero course. When it comes to him talking and interacting with his students keep him blunt and have him point out flaws but also give ideas and help into how to actually FIX THE FLAWS. This could lead to him trying to help izuku with his quirk situation and actually teach him quirkless combat (which is something CANON IZUKU SHOULD OF HAVE LEARNT!!!) From then we can see aizawas perception of izuku slowly change and he slowly starts to understand his student and realises the uncanny similarities they both end up sharing. When it comes to him interacting with teachers have him at the start feel like he doesn't fit in and be distant but slowly with the help of his friends present mic and midnight he starts to open up to the UA staff and we can get him develop a little rivalry with Vlad (I know a lot of people say it exists but it's quite one sided with just Vlad being competitive) Iam not saying aizawa should be extroverted and competitive but still be petty and uphold a bit of the rivalry in his own way. When it comes to his friends I think with them he should be close but also have this irrational fear of losing his friends ( actually have him realise and try to teach the dangers of heroics). With all might I feel like he should respect him as a hero and what his goal is which is to teach heroics to the younger generation ( he still doesn't know about OFA until way later ) but have him as someone who has been teaching for a longer time period give constructive criticism and sympathise a bit cos let's be honest teaching a group of overpowered kids is tough.
Have his backstory focus on him and his friends. When reading the vigilantes manga and just looking at the main manga you can clearly tell that the whole backstory of oboro and the kurogiri situation is just there for aizawa and no one else which is such a shame considering it ruins all the characters that are involved writing. Throughout the reveal, we should of focused on the whole rooftop trios reaction as a whole and not only on aizawas we should of seen them try and take comfort and confide in eachother ,we should of seen their own regrets and suffering while giving all the characters screen time to show that. Also aizawas backstory doesn't make sense considering how he goes on to favour bakugo even though he was bullied by someone like bakugo so have him actually follow his backstory and maybe as a teacher empathise more with Izuku and try and help whatever nonsense pos is on.
It's such a pity that aizawa (one of Horikoshi's favourite characters) has so much wasted potential and could of been a great teacher that tried his best to teach and protect his students but because of the inconsistencies in his character and his actions all of that just FAILS horribly.

Best Boyfriend
Synopsis: One where Harry finds his girl having a break down
More of my work
Harry was going over to see his girlfriend at her flat as he'd returned back in London just last night.
It was a Saturday morning and he has been planning to surprise her with a weekend away. Maybe a little trip to somewhere near or day out in London itself. He picked up breakfast on his way to her flat.
His heart sunk to his stomach the moment he entered her flat with the help of the spare key she gave him last Christmas, it was his present she said so he can come over whenever he pleased. There he found his girl layed on her bed in her studio flat with text books and printed notes every spread over the mattress, the place was a mess, pillows and blankets thrown on the floor to make room for her stuff. She was layed there with her laptop on her tummy watching some cartoon crying her eyes out. By the sounds of the show playing on her computer it seemed it was something funny and not something to cry over.
"Hey, love what's wrong?" He rushed towards her dropping the bag pf breakfast on the coffee table. "Are you watching a sad movie, baby?"
"No, I'm watching Noddy and Friends that's not fucking sad!" She cried. "I'm sorry!"
"What's wrong, my love?" He moved her notes away carefully to make himself room to and proceeded to close her laptop shut to pull her in his arms.
"I can't do this!" She exclaimed, sobbing, "I understand nothing."
"What can you not do baby?" He was confused, "it's okay, do you wanna talk about it?"
"This stupid project. I don't know where to get the information from. My professor thinks just because he's been teaching this subject for thirty years that we know everything. This sucks! I wanna drop out." She on ranting, "but I can't because my mum will be mad. This is so draining."
"Why don't you ask your professor do give you some tips?" He suggested.
"I did, he said I'll get everything online and in the notes. I have no fucking idea where to find a fucking Balance sheet of a random company online."
"Hey, hey it's okay, it's all okay." He assured her, "let's do one thing, you're up for it?"
"What?" She whined, "I don't want to go anywhere. Just lemme be here."
"No, listen to me. I got us breakfast, I'm sure you didn't even had your breakfast yet. Then we're gonna go on a little walk." His hand ran in soothing strokes on her spine. "It's just a project, I'll help you with it." Now that made her loft her head up, he had tried helping her once before but gave up because he did not understood a thing he read. "No, I am gonna help you this time. I promise you. Now come on let's eat."
"I don't want to." She started crying all over again. "I am sorry I'm crying."
"No it's alright lovie." He pressed a kiss on her forehead, "it's alright. Getting out will help clear your mind. I see watching something to do that isn't helping you now. Let's eat and go out, yeah? We can go get your favourite frozen yogurt."
Her fave turned of something of embarrassment when he mentioned of them going out. Her eyes pooled up with tears all over again, her cheeks glistening with the tears.
"I don't get paid till tomorrow!" And there she was sobbing again.
"Who said you've to pay? I'm taking you out on a date, now come on." He urged her, "I'll pick this all up for you." She finally agreed got out of bed to go wash up her face.
It's been little over eight months YN and Harry started seeing each other, and out of three months he was away for filming for Dunkirk and getting his album all finished up. He is sure she is still not quite over her little awkward and shy phase, but he doesn't blame her. She's got a lot going anyway. She's in the last year of college and it's been stressful for her. And living miles and miles away from home wasn't doing anything to help her either, last year she couldn't even go to see her family over her winter break. Harry took it upon himself to be with him.
He's most amazing boyfriend!
It was the best Christmas he's spent in a long, long time though. Though she couldn't buy him presents like he did (and went a little overboard) she made him a few little DIY ones. Like jar of little notes to read when he's feeling: low, anxious or just need a little motivation, a pearl necklace (though he broke it on accident soon after), gave him a free manicure.
She's a keeper, Mitch said seeing the little glass jar at Harry's place.
Meanwhile Harry gathered up her notes spread all over her bed, and took everything out of the little take out boxes onto dishes. Put back her bed together for her even though he knows she's gonna be pissed for doing her work. She needs a break.
"Come on," he grabbed her hand in a gentle hold before she could even say a word and walk to the coffee table where he'd set up their breakfast.
"Thank you!" She cooed noticing he's got all her favourite food. Like he really woke up early and went to the restaurant and waited in line to get the food which she likes. It warmed her heart.
"Of course my love," he leaned in to get his long awaited kiss from her with puckered lips. She finally smiled and leaned in too press a kiss on the full on his lips. "That's my girl!" He grinned peppering her face with more sloppy and wet kisses which made her let out a line of soft giggles.
They went out like he promised her. They got the Frozen yogurt from her favourite place, he even surprised her with an impromptu visit to the London Eye.
Later that day he actually sat down and started on with the project with her. It was a difficult one so they're going to have to spend the sunday in to get it done as it was due on Monday, midnight. Two days seemed enough.
He actually helped her and not be his naughty self and annoy her like her enjoys to some times.

"WE SHALL NOBLY SAVE, OR MEANLY LOSE, THE LAST BEST HOPE OF EARTH"
TCinLA
Oct 16, 2024
In what is now a little less than three weeks, the world’s oldest democracy will conclude a referendum on whether democracy will be maintained or be replaced by fascism.
I wish to hell I could write something more subtle. But there’s nothing subtle to write.
160 years ago, President Lincoln posed the choice the country face in the election of 1864 - held in the midst of the Civil War - thus: “We shall nobly save, or meanly lose, the last best hope of earth.”
That choice is before us again.
And this time it is even more stark.
The media continues to struggle - at the infrequent times they deign to even try - to use language that clarifies all this; with rare exception, the best they can do is to call the situation “extraordinary,” “unusual,” and “unprecedented.” Or at least they consider the possibility of using those words on the few occasions where they aren’t putting all their effort into telling us “Nothing to see here, folks, move along,” that it’s just another of those every-four-year competitions between two candidates who each love America and only want the best for us.
On Monday, both Trump and Kamala Harris held campaign events.
Trump’s town hall devolved into one of the most bizarre political events of the campaign, as he stopped taking questions (that he didn’t answer when they were asked), and stood dazed and confused on the stage for 39 long minutes, listening to music as he “danced” by himself while his staff played music from his personal Spotify list and the governor of South Dakota acted like a children’s show host, clapping along to the music as if everything was completely normal.
At about the same time, Kamala Harris held an energetic and positive rally; it was well- organized, inspirational, with accompanying music from artists who personally approved use of their songs by the candidate.
Coverage of the two events was mind-boggling, as the corporate media either completely ignored Trump’s behavior, or sanewashed it by calling it “a concert,” or otherwise acted like the two events were the same. There was no mention at all that the oldest candidate to campaign for president had “sundowned” in front of his supporters for close to three-quarters of an hour. The Guardian - which should definitely know better! - and the WaPo, which one would hope might know better, both called it a “dance party.” CBS and ABC described it as an “impromptu concert.” Surprisingly, the New York Times actually called it “odd,” while NBC used the word “surreal,” to describe the event. Trump was so far gone that when he “came around” at the end, he told his supporters to be sure to “vote on January 5.”
Clearly, there is nothing Trump can do that will get the media to tell their audiences the truth about what is happening to him.
But yesterday, the receipts were there for anyone who cared to look. Trump did a live interview at an event put on by Bloomberg News and the Economic Club of Chicago. It was another train wreck.
The entire sorry show began with Trump showing up an hour late. Moderator John Micklethwait, editor-in-chief of Bloomberg News, proceeded to ask real questions regarding Trump’s economic plans, which the former “dumbest fucking student who ever walked in my classroom” (in the words of a Wharton professor whose class young Donald was allowed to AUDIT because he failed to qualify for acceptance into Wharton) answered with rants and slogans. Micklethwait - a Brit who obviously does not suffer fools easily or at all - repeatedly corrected Trump and redirected him to the actual questions. Trump doesn’t like being publicly schooled or questioned, and the interview quickly grew angry and combative. On being corrected by Micklethwait for misunderstanding how tariffs work, Trump replied (in front of an audience of people who do understand how tariffs work): “It must be hard for you to, you know, spend 25 years talking about tariffs as being negative and then have somebody explain to you that you're totally wrong.” When Mickelthwait pointed out that an analysis by the Wall Street Journal stated his plans would explode the national debt, Trump wrapped his arms around himself like a petulant 10 year old being corrected and replied: “What does the Wall Street Journal know? They’ve been wrong about everything. So have you, by the way….. You’ve been wrong about everything…. You’ve been wrong all your life on this stuff.”
As Micklethwait continued to conduct journalism with Trump, the response was more and more outlandish statements: that children could do the work of U.S. autoworkers in South Carolina, and that he would be a better chair of the Federal Reserve than Jerome Powell.
Despite the claims by Trump press spokesman Fu Manchu, er, I mean Steven Cheung, that his candidate had “won” - as if the interview was a debate - $22 Million Man Chris LaCivita decided Trump would not do another economic policy event with CNBC.
David Rothkopf of Deep State Radio hit the nail on the head: “The past 24 hours seem to have been a dividing line in the Trump campaign...and in Trump. He went from being periodically adrift and sporadically demented to being 24/7 unfit and in need of permanent medical attention. He's one cloudless night away from baying at the moon.”
That’s why it was so bracing this week to find that General Mark Milley, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, clarified remarks he had made previously to Bob Woodward for his book “War,” (which is an excellent account of how Joe Biden is the best president of the past 60 years) stating clearly:
"He is the most dangerous person ever. I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline and so forth, but now I realize he's a total fascist. He is now the most dangerous person to this country, he’s a fascist to the core.”
The media was stuck. They had to talk about that. High ranking American military officers do not go around saying things like that. Ever.
In 1956, then-president Dwight D. Eisenhower - the last Republican president who didn’t either commit or knowingly benefit from treason to win his elections - spoke to a group of Republican women about the state of politics in America. He said:
“If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.”
Here we are, 68 years later, confronted by the fact we are not opposed by a political party, but by “a conspiracy to seize power.”
And it is up to each of us to “nobly save, or meanly lose, the last best hope of earth.”
Looking at the first day of early voting yesterday in Georgia - which exceeded the previous record in 2020 by 184% - and listening to interviews with voters who had stood in line resolutely through all the early morning glitches to be sure they voted tell reporters that they were there “to save democracy” in the words of several, “to be true to my mother and grandmother and her grandmother” in the words of one woman, I think we have a shot at doing it.
In the words of Willie Brown, the smartest politician I ever knew, “Ignore the polls and run like you’re ten points down till the real polls close, then celebrate.”

Choromatsu I begggg 🙏🙏🙏🙏
🧿 “never knew i needed” 🧿
pairing: Choromatsu x Reader
summary: You and Choromatsu usually have movie nights as best friends but maybe this movie shows Choro what he really needs.
tropes: friends to lovers, love confession, mutual pining
warnings: none
“Choromatsu,” he heard you called, he snapped to attention being met with you sitting in his lap poking his cheek.
“You were spacing out again.. you okay?” You proceeded to lift your hand to reach his forehead only for him to grab your wrist. His faced was flushed as he looked up at you.
“I’m ok I promise, what were you saying?” Choromatsu mutters as every muscle seemed to stand still. Yours hands quickly move to his shoulders.
“What movie do you wanna watch?” You said getting up off his lap and letting him scroll through your smart TV for a movie before just picking Princess and The Frog. You and him work together to get your movie night set up. You two usually did it every Saturday or if you had a bad day at work.
Since he hadn’t gotten a job yet he comes over and sometimes even catches jealousy of how you live. He wants an apartment of his own where he can feel like this with you.
You made popcorn as he brings over a blanket and pillow in case you fall asleep. Once you’re both ready Choromatsu lays on the couch with a hand supporting his head. You sat on the remaining part of cushion in front of his stomach. As the movie played Choromatsu became more and more aware of how close you were.
“Are you comfortable y/n? I can move-“
“No but here,” you began while laying down and press against him causing him to stiffen up and blush.
“Choro you should to relax a bit, I don’t bite I promise.” You sigh moving his arm to go around your waist. It takes him a moment before fully spooning you. Silence consumes the two of you the movie plays.
It wasn’t until Choromatsu watched the two cartoon frogs danced under colored lights that made Chotomstsu realize that he related to how the frog prince felt.
He admired you for your hard work and how much you cared for him even though you have nothing to gain from him while he was a NEET you met due to Osomatsu and Karamatsu. Of course he wasn’t Naveen or charismatic at all but he understood what the frog was feeling when he looked at Tiana.
You had inspired him and helped him get a couple of interviews, he wanted to work hard but always set himself back so when you and him became friends you helped him every step of the way. You looked up to see him staring at the screen almost focused. That is until you lay on top of him.
“Y-y/n!”
“I can move if you want, but I just wanted to get comfortable.” You muttered laying your head in his chest. He stared at ceiling not even watching the movie anymore while he asked.
“Are you doing this on purpose?”
You sit up a little confused as his gaze seeped into yours.
“Doing what?”
“All the cuddling, the way you treat me… are you doing it on purpose?” He stay up with you keeping a surprisingly strong grasp on your waist. Usually he flinched from grazing you, let alone holding you.
You sat in silence trying to collect your thoughts.
“I like you a lot y/n, like a lot! So if you don’t mean it then-“
Choromatsu began to rant before you exhale in relief. You nestle further into his warmth tracing shaped into his hoodie.
“It’s about time, I didn’t know how many more hints I had to give you to realize.” You pout
“Y-you’ve liked me this whole time?!” Choromatsu said sitting up. You nod and sit up with him.
“I knew you wouldn’t say anything even if you did so I just tested stuff out.” You shrug for him to sit silently taking you in.
“T-Then.. can I kiss you?” Choromatsu said leaning closer. You nod as he shakily caressed your hands, thumbs softly gliding over your soft skin. Your lips lock and you take the lead guiding him through the motions.
Choromatsu’s face flushed as he attempted to keep up with you his body shaking in joy and a little fear. He didn’t wanna do anything wrong or mess something up; he wanted to keep you as long as he could.
“Are you okay? You’re shaking really bad,” you asked in a hushed voice. Choromatsu nods and lays back down.
“Yea this is uh.. my first time in a relationship.” Choromatsu muttered to get a laugh from you. You lay back down head in his chest and get comfortable pulling a blanket over the two of you and as the movie ends you sleep comfortably on his chest while he plays in your hair.
Bonus:
When you woke up Choromatsu was playin something on your game system. You run your eyes and sit up on his lap.
“You hungry Choro? I can order us something” you asked searching around for your phone as he grunts a response locked into the game.
A knock comes from your door causing you to slide off of him and wobble to your door to see Osomatsu.
“Hey y/n I was wondering if you were up to go drinking with me-“ he starts before Choromatsu pauses the game and walks up behind you wrapping an arm around your waist.
“No we have plans.” Choromatsu interrupts leaving the two to glare at eachother
“Since when have you two been fucking?” Osomatsu asks for a bright red blush to spread across the two of you.
“We uh… just got together.” You mumble for Osomatsu to nod and leave with a “don’t get too freaky” making the two of you stand there for a moment longer before going inside to cuddle up once again.
Authors Note: my first request!! I’m so honored. Lemme know if you liked it, I just got into writing for Choro but I tried to set up what I think he’d act like in this scenario

Blorbo: Fat Tony (very underrated character on this blog)
{That he is. *summons him from the dead*}
[Don Marion Anthony D'Amico, better known as Fat Tony, is one of the best characters on the show and his lore is, for whatever reason, the most well-maintained in the show. Or it was till they fucking killed him off but then replaced him with his identical cousin then proceeded to treat him as if he was the real Tony. THAT'S BULLSHIT! This is the tale of two Skinners all over again. But I'll leave my venomous rant for the end. I want to gush over this sweet man first.
Unlike Sideshow Bob, the show brings in Fat Tony a lot but not too much so that he gets stale (his celebrity VA is expensive but loves the character so much he always is happy to do episodes). Tony is a guy who had humble dreams and then one thing led to another, next thing he knew he was henching with the mob before doing so well he climbed the ranks to become the boss himself. While cliché is tough guys can't show weakness, Tony was a good man when it came to his crew and his eventual family, which brought him respect...except from The Calebresis but they ain't a problem no more. A faithful husband, loving father, and caring boss, Tony held loyalty all around him. His only negatives were of course his business dealings. And while some are often silly (such as putting cotton balls on ferrets to pass off as toy poodles or selling rat milk to schools), others are very very bad. Like, wow I didn't notice this as a kid but holy shit kind of bad.
Some examples are the following...Illegal fireworks, bootleg merchandise, gambling, sabotage, illegal trafficking (tobacco & alcohol), organized crime, bribery, smuggling, extortion, money laundering, murder, prostitution, loansharking, kidnapping, counterfeiting, highway robbery, faulty construction, numbers, smuggling heroin, arson, and forging legal documentation such as birth certificates and passports.
Still, as bad as all that is, he hardly ever suffered from consciousness. But when he did, man, they hit hard. His wife dies "whacked by natural causes" (it's questionable but plausible". He gets shot to hell and put in a coma. And the worst one, the betrayal of someone he considered his best friend which is too much for his overworked heart...he dies of a heart attack and joins his wife with his grave beside hers. This would have been an ok send-off...But they fucked it!
Fit Tony, then later Fit-Fat Tony, and now known as the New and Improved Fat Tony (<- big fucking lie!) pisses me off to no end 'cause while I like more Tony lore, I hate how he's portrayed while carrying Tony's name. (They literally named this guy Marion Anthony Paul D'Amico...WTF?!) This faker holds none of real Tony's charm.
OG Tony was monogamous and died a widower/single father.
FitFake Tony is married but is a bigamist, having no issue with having mistresses. (He's implied to have a daughter but that's in the noncanon comics)
OG Tony cared about his crew, he showed them respect, and he was held with such regards that none but the stupid would dare stand to him.
FitFake Tony sees the crew as tools, he comes across as really too soft and not all that intimidating, and the members of the crew have turned on him multiple times.
The real kicker is this guy lives in his dead cousin's home, now lives his life, and is raising his son. I can't imagine the mental shit Michael has to deal with as an 8-year-old in a mob family who had to go through his mom dying, then his dad also kicks the bucket, but suddenly a look-a-like is now in his home but acts completely different. My child needs some therapy.
I can only hope that in the new season, there's some fixing done. I want to still enjoy Tony, I really do. But please, stop dragging his name through the mud. They used him in a Jersey Shore parody for fuck's sake! *groans* Look how they massacred my boy.]

(rant, this is gonna be long)
Okay so I've seen a lot of people say you shouldn't ship Bellow Diamond cuz it's toxic (I can talk about that as a whole) and they usually pull up a scene from Change Your Mind so I'm gonna quickly throw in my opinion as a huge Bellow shipper.
Starting off strong with this.
That's not the face of someone who's proud and 100% with what they're doing.
(p.s. there's a part just before Steven throws his shield at her where she literally has to close her eyes. she doesn't wanna do this and it's really very obvious? 😭)
This part and the part where Blue and Yellow stand up to White is probably my favourite part of CYM.
She goes on to talk about how "this is what White Diamond expects of all of us," , to seek out and destroy everything that is flawed or shows signs of rebellion. She's balancing her devotion to the Empire and loyalty to White with her affection for Blue. (off topic a little but Yellow attacking Blue for telling her Pink is now Steven could also hint that, like White, possibly even learnt from White, Yellow is preferring to live as though everything is "back to normal"). She's very obviously conflicted.
All it took for her to snap out of the facade was Steven and Blue's lil speech, and seeing what she'd done to someone she cares about so much.
Her crying obviously came as a shock to Blue as Yellow was following the "all emotions are flaws" mantra for like, possibly all of her existence? Also, Blue going to comfort Yellow and Yellow letting and even encouraging her shows that they care about each other?? do people just ignore these scenes 😭
This episode is an honourable mention as the song, What's the Use Of Feeling, (Blue)? starts off more or less as a lecture. Yellow is questioning why Blue can't just move on and accept that Pink is gone, overall questioning her grieving process and encouraging Blue to destroy the bubbled Rose Quartzes. (This also links to Yellow's grieving process too.)
However, near the end Yellow sympathizes with Blue, saying "Don't you know I miss her too?", and proceeding to get choked up, therefore unable to finish the song. (I always wonder what would've happened next if Holly Blue hadn't walked in.)
Honourable mentions 2 and 3, we never actually see them having a conversation after CYM (I think...?) but in the first screenshot we can see they obviously still talk, presumably frequently giving how fast they were to find each other once Steven went to talk to White.
Number three, Yellow protects Blue from a cloud. An ecstasy cloud. Literally nothing bad would've happened if Blue had had the cloud shoved into her face, but Yellow protects her nonetheless.
they're so unbelievably mature and unbelievably immature
anyways thanks for coming to my Ted Talk 😭 my apologies if I worded anything wrong I'm so bad at actually putting things into words 😭
#this also applies to people said they didn't care about pink till she left like. i think Blue in era two is enough evidence to say she DID#care about her? idk thats a conversation for another day#steven universe#blue diamond#bellow diamond#yellow diamond#change your mind#the scene where yellow blasts blue is so “you're the one you're all i ever wanted i think till regret this” coded#alex rants#rafghg ill post something that makes sense soon#im still learning#Spotify
