I've been running this blog for a while now and the number of short stories on it is always growing. You'll find a list of all individual stories in this post. Also check out my external website Story Finder for more ways to browse and explore my stories 🙂

I'll pin this post to the top of the blog and update it occasionally.

Requests are open 😊 Please specify if it's a straight or gay request.

MY SMUT SERIES

Most Memorable Sexual Experiences of NCT & WayV – One story with fluff and sex scenes per member of NCT and WayV.

Most Memorable Sexual Experiences of TXT – One story with fluff and sex scenes per member of TXT.

"Quick Fix" Dirty K-pop Imagines – Shorter, wilder sex scenes in which you are the other character (x female reader), about any (male) idols.

Story Finder is the best way to explore all my smut and find individual stories by idol, content, series, requests, and more! If you don't want to leave Tumblr, keep scrolling for my master list 😊

🟢 VANILLA: Sweet, plain, innocent or inexperienced sex

🟠 MEDIUM: Regular good sex

🟣 WILD: Usually a little rougher and more explicit

🔵 STEAMY: Sensual and passionate involving all senses

🔴 UNCONVENTIONAL: Any of the above but with a twist, for example a kink or a threesome

* Listed more than once because more than one idol is the main character.

SUPPORT MY WRITING

Like my smut? Buy me a coffee.

Writing just a single story takes me anywhere from 3-24 hours of active work depending on the story, and I do this as a hobby in my spare time. Your support would mean more to me than you know!

[snobgoblin]

I have just been extremely chatty lately so anyway yapping to a character prompt part 3

1. How do they celebrate their birthday?

he usually just treats himself by shopping at red street. he would invite people but he doesn't really have friends

2. Who is the most important person in their life?

himself if I'm honest but whatever partner he may get definitely becomes the most important person to him

3. What to they wear when they're just at home hanging out?

it swings wildly between "he wears the most expensive outfit he owns just for funsies" and "he wears basically nothing because of texture issues"

4. What is their house like?

you've seen the shop! it's that. with a cozy upstairs with lots of pillows. very Howl's Moving Castle esque decor going on in there too

5. Any pets?

eventually Faunus, yeah! he tries very unsuccessfully to lure pigeons and stuff to him with pumpkin bread. he's definitely an animal lover and tries to pet anything

6. What will always make them smile?

things that bring him comfort. warm bread, little trinkets, and eventually, his friends

7. What will always make them cry?

if you ever make him feel like you don't like him he will get mad and then cry about it later

8. What's their favorite movie (presuming they life in a world with movies, if not, what would be their favorite movie)?

I watch the same 5 movies on loop so I'm not sure 😭 I'll say he's a ghibli kind of guy

9. Favorite book?

erm I don't read so idk but he loves reading up on mythology and magic and things like that

10. Do they get along with their parents?

despite feeling hurt by Mercurio they're definitely close. that's the reason WHY he's so mad at his dad for leaving- he loves being around him. his relationship with his mom is negative but nearly nonexistent, they hardly see each other

11. If you could put them into a different fictional universe, where would they go?

in my universe GET OVER HERE (I have fallen in love with him)

12. Favorite holiday?

he freaking loves the Winter Solstice bro, like he hates the cold but he loves the closeness that comes with it and the over the top decorations

13. Tattoos?

nope!

14. What was their first kiss like?

awkward 😭 but passionate. buddy tried his best but he is painfully socially awkward

15. Have they ever lost somebody they loved?

yes, his aunt Capra. it destroyed him

16. They find a genie and are granted three wishes, what do they wish for, and why?

1) he wishes for someone to be obsessed with him. he is extremely lonely and feels so much love that has nowhere to go, and his heart is so empty he needs something to fill it. 2) he would probably want his aunt back and 3) he wishes to be rich for personal reasons but also so his dad will quit his job and stay home with him (that's not how that works 😭 he loves what he does)

17. They're stranded on an island and can only have 4 items and one companion, who and what do they bring?

he brings Asra and doesn't have to worry about the other 4 items because Asra will portal through the water and get them to safety. er cheeky answer erm Asra brings a wand, a cup, a sword, and a pentacle

18. What's a quote (not from their universe), that you associate them with?

I had to google "quotes" to get this 💀 I think this one's fitting "be so good they can't ignore you" -Steve Martin

19. Any romantic interests?

too many

20. What kind of accent do they have?

it's hard to say because they would all be speaking a language I do not speak. (of course the devs say they're all fantasy languages but we can assume they would at least be similar to real life areas and languages) he would sound like a native Italian speaker for sure, where Nadia, Julian, and Lucio, might not

21. What is their most prized possession?

he has a couple... his rings are probably up there. he never takes them off

22. Have they ever stolen anything?

only a body!

Happy Birthday, Kuras!

I do have a weakness for angels in TV series, movies, books, and art in general.

Since I do not trust the figure of the Elohim, whatever and whoever they might be (the most accurate translation seems to be plural), I find it somehow fascinating when angels -without being cruel or evil- don't do exactly as they are ordered.

So regarding Kuras, I came upon the question: How would I celebrate a fictional character I know so little about?

Well... First, it makes sense he does not eat, but he enjoys the smell of coffee. I have always thought coffee usually smells better than it tastes. It has to be extremely good in order to taste really good, which makes enjoying coffee sort of a subtle experience... I would present Kuras with some well preserved arabica beans that hopefully grew under an old forest at a high ground. That is one kind of human beverage he can deeply enjoy without necessarily drinking it.

Second, literature often associates angels (including fallen angels) with music. This is a huge topic and I already made a music list for Kuras on this blog. But I found a few pieces I would choose to celebrate his birthday this year:

Baaba Maal & Mansour Seck: Muudo Hormo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyAZ9sPX0F4 To comfort him.

Peter Gabriel - Blood Of Eden https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XhDGkg8SpQ To help him address his sorrow and guilt.

Carmina Burana: "Chume, chum geselle min" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUEMm9NgRbE An invitation for him to move on.

At last but not least, it is implied in the demo -if you manage to unlock that scene- that he actually enjoys affectionate physical contact, so I would try and give him that too as part of his birthday present, when he is not so busy. 💛

Welcome to The Author's Archive

I'm Cassandra Erica, local girlish-shaped thing carrying she/they pronouns under each arm (despite how much more difficult it makes grocery shopping). I'm traumatized and so are mostly all of my characters, and they deserved it just as much as I did (none) but that's the cards they're dealt. By me. I swear, I tried to stop writing about childhood trauma, it just didn't work. Though nowadays I also put my characters through terrible heartbreak. It's growth!

"So," you're wondering, "what have you written so far? What are you working on? Are you going to keep up this weird reflexive second-person perspective?" To answer back-to-front: no, many things, and not quite as many things. Here are some lists!

~~~

RELEASED ON NOTSOCHEEZY.COM!

The Real Me (2022, Short Story)

There's something a bit off about businessman Mr. Shirley Jones. What's he hiding?

Three Takes on Death (2022, Short Story)

What might happen when we die?

Pink Bow (2022, Novella)

Who knew trying on one dress at the mall could change a person's entire life? Chris - or, uh, Kris - certainly didn't. Was it just a dress inside that box with the pink bow, or was it something more?

Passable. Episode One - The Virgin (2024, Writer's Block Short)

The pilot episode (of sorts) for a trans sitcom. Lily gets herself a date with a little something extra. Sarah racks her brain to keep her boyfriend sexually satisfied without breaking chastity. Alice and Brayden run a 'scientific' study with a virgin busboy.

Plus some other things, don't worry about it.

~~~

BRAIN CURDS

Brain Curds are lightly edited daily writing - usually flash fiction and sometimes terrible on purpose. Click here to see some of the greatest hits! Here are some of the ongoing series:

The Frank Program

Frank hosts a podcast with high profile guests, and he's not afraid to tell you "what they don't want you to know," but he has plenty of his own secrets.

Passable.

Four trans college students share an apartment in Irvine and screw up each others' lives through sheer lack of scruples.

Government Man

Government Man is from the government.

Cole Nicole

Genderfluid femboy model, Cole Nicole, navigates life just outside the spotlight.

Veronica

Via gruesome means, Veronica gets her revenge - a dish best served at 98.6 degrees.

The Prom Consort

Kelly finds herself roped in to an arrangement (don't call it a love triangle) that might just be profitable. That is, if old wounds don't prove too painful.

Dominic of the Darkness

The antichrist is about to celebrate his sweet 666th birthday by breaking hell - that is, going to live on Earth for a week.

~~~

WIP!

Anthill Theory (Short Film) Finished - Waiting for Soundtrack

An exploration of free will through a time loop that the protagonist doesn't know he's in.

A Covenant of Rust (Novella) Expansion and Rewrite Phase

A newlywed couple moves into a 1950s prefab home in early 2020, but finds more hidden beneath the surface than the floor plan could reveal. Will forgotten secrets and isolation bring them together, or tear them apart?

Blue Rabbit (Short Story) Pre-Final

Sequel/companion to A Covenant of Rust. I keep telling myself I'm going to finally finish this one, but it'll have to wait for its sibling project.

One Late Night Easter Morning (Short Story) First Draft

A chance encounter at a bar leads to late-night musings about humanity.

The Order of the Degenerati (Novel) Outlining

A secret society was formed after the tragedy of the holocaust to make sure it never happened again. Unfortunately, nowadays the most they can do is make YouTube videos go viral.

It Goes Up (Never Never NEVER NEVER NEVER) Complete

You will never read it.

Memories Retained (Novella?) Outlining

Ever had a dream where you were back in high school, before it all went to shit, and you decided to do something differently? Ever woke up and found out it really happened?

Seeing Other People (Novel?) Brain Curding

A story of love, polyamory, Dissociative Identity Disorder, and heartbreak. Gee, I wonder why I feel compelled to write this one?

And MORE! THERE IS ALWAYS MORE!

~~~

MY BOOK!(?)

Publishers don't seem super interested in collections of short stories, and I'm afraid a collection of short stories and novellas may make a literary agent's head explode, so expect to see Tales from Starved Childhoods as a self-published debut! It includes a fully rewritten new version of Everyone Has Their Price (2017); newly revised versions of Next Day Delivery (2017), The Real Me (2022), Three Takes on Death (2022) and Pink Bow (2022); and all-new stories still in progress.

Tales from Starved Childhoods is set to be the physical manifestation of my early career as a writer, so stay tuned and look for it someplace books are sold!

~~~

If you'd like to be one of my readers or vice versa, don't hesitate to reach out! I'm shy but I won't bite without consent.

I'm always happy to have more eyes on what I'm making and I'm always happy to read something new. It helps with the burnout. I'm open to most any genre - I don't really think much about labels when coming up with ideas.

If you work for a publisher and you see something you like, send an email to publishing@notsocheezy.com with the subject line, "Business Factory."

this one spot on a trail in my area. a bunch of rocks on an cliffy thing next to the trail. that sounds perfect. laying down or sitting on or hopping across the rocks, under the open sky, hiking up and down and putting flowers in your hair

not sure if it's aaaaaactually an mlm song but "good old fashioned lover boy" by queen. my goofy answer is "lookin good" by dixon dallas

being sought out. that's how i feel i know that i'm actually valued

single

idk man i don't count

i don't even know if i have one. i always end up crushing on friends tho

really depends. sometimes it's an "OH SHIT THEY'RE REALLY COOL UHM wait shit this is a crush" and sometimes it's a really, really slow realization with a hell of a lot of denial

something fun that we both love. OOH maybe princess bride!! quote at each other, smile, laugh

any and all flowers are amazing. i will also take a bouquet of random branches and leaves and shit (honestly that's better)

something small that's really something they'd like. searching the local little antique store for cute little things would be pretty great. also deeeeefinitely a cheesy date night

ARGHHHHH uhhhhhm i've gotta say, stadium arcadium by red hot chili peppers has a really special place in my heart

quality time and physical touch, i think

god, i really don't know yet. gonna have to find out

yeah. im on tumblr ofc i do

luka couffaine. AAAAAAAAA HE'S SO SWEET. a relationship with him would be the absolute healthiest relationship ever and i am HERE FOR IT. and he wants to be a luthier. MY STRINGY LITTLE HEART IS SCREEECHING RN

both are great, but usually loud boys. like damn, ask for what you need. make them goofy ass comments with me. YELL WITH ME

saying this because a new kotlc book came out but. cmon bro ravioli is canon. alvar is the gayest. also entirely ship fedex (we got the best ship names)

annie's mac n cheese

gonna guess "ophelia" by the lumineers? don't remember what songs were playing on the radio or in the cvs

having someone who i thought didn't like me send me a card in residential saying she thought i was really cool and wanted to be friends with me. she even printed out and sent pictures of goat statues she found and thought of me. for my birthday she gave me a trip to house of bagels, which is where we had our first real conversation. all the little things she do make me feel so valued, she's amazing and thoughtful. still gotta figure out how to actually text her, my computer's acting up

lips :)

BOTH PLEASE

i mean. does stravinsky count. THE FUCKING SWEETEST DUDE WITH THE BEST MUSIC

watching american housewife. it's like one of those shitty tv shows but it's actually really good. it's awesome. dude why is it so good it makes me smile and it has a happy loving marriage it nearly makes me wanna cry

some. hand holding, arm around shoulders, all of that is amazing. kind of uncomfortable with anything long and overly intimate. most i'd be comfortable with is a quick kiss towards the sides of wherever we are

cuddled.

saying happy, sappy, genuine things and seeing them starting to actually believe what i say

both. either. both

physical touch and quality time

Answering here to this lovely ask by the lovelier @greypetrel because it's the OCs playground - based on this prompt list. ✨

This turned in an astrology-heavy thingy, so I feel like I should premise that astrology (like tarot cards) is a tool and like any tool all depends on how you decide to wield it. I don't believe that horoscopes should dictate your life; to me astrology can be a way to reflect on yourself - or just to have fun with completely fictional characters lol.

So:

💧Maren Hawke: Scorpio / water (mid November, during a storm)

"[...] intense personalities and feelings that they hide underneath their cool exterior."

Usually celebrated in some simple but sweet way - which is fine to her, because before Lothering they are always on the run and she doesn't want to be a burden. However she would be secretly very pleased if someone would take care to do something more extravagant once the family (or what's left of it) is more settled.

🍁 Gwydion/Gideon Hawke: Libra / air (late September - Autumn equinox, a sunny but chilly day) + an Earth rising sign.

"Their ruling planet is Venus, meaning that Libras are nurturing, caring, and can make great defenders of the downtrodden."

Loves a good celebration, but in a hobbit sort of way - he'll just use it as an excuse to buy stuff for all of his friends/loved ones because excuse me! It's his birthday! Can't they indulge him a little? ;)

(Yes, Justice included)

🌱 Malva Surana: Aquarius / air (unknown)

"They go about accomplishing their goals in quiet and unorthodox ways. Oftentimes, just because they chose the path less traveled, the results of their eccentric methods are surprisingly effective."

In Kinloch Hold since she was about five years old, so she never celebrated before becoming a warden - when the companions all got together around the campfire and invented a birthday for her. Since she has no benchmark she makes up a bunch of so-called "traditions" based on what people tell her, and probably trusts Zevran a little bit too much.

+ bonus: ❄️ Circe Trevelyan is still half a mystery to me, but I think I'd like a Pisces-Aries (water-fire, eheh) cuspid around the Spring Equinox.

Dear Sephiroth: (a letter to a fictional character, because why not) #6

It's Christmas today. It's one of the days upon which people in my world like to celebrate your birthday, so Happy Birthday!

Days like these usually aren't especially happy for me though, for a variety of reasons. I guess it's about time I got into 'em… I'll warn you now, if abuse (all forms) and trauma are triggers for you, this is probably something you should avoid reading.

The short version is that I am estranged from all of my biological family. It sucks and I wish it didn't have to be that way; my family is full of good and beautiful people, even though they've made some really weird choices in the throes of their pain and fear, even though some of those choices have permanently affected me in ways that are very much not ideal, and even though, no matter how hard I try, they do not hear me calling them back into the light. My voice just… isn't the kind of voice that most people find credible, I guess. There are a lot of societal reasons for that, but I won't get into that just now; maybe some other time. In any case, my hand is outstretched to them always if they want to try, but… well… they don't seem to want to, and I can't afford to bend myself into pretzels and sacrifice my peace of mind for them anymore - not while people who are willing to respect me are counting on me to be emotionally stable and meaningfully present in their lives.

The long version is that my birth in this place was accidental. I didn't come into being because I was wanted; I came into being because the condom broke. I was kept around most likely because things like aborting your kid and giving your kid up for adoption come with a lot of stigma - my parents would have had to face the fury of their family and social group, and that would have been very bad for them. From there, a lot of really weird and objectively awful stuff happened. In those days, I wasn't really a person; I was treated more like an appliance or a piece of furniture. I was a physical and emotional punching bag for others, both in and out of the various houses and schools I grew up in. I was tapped as a resource with little regard for my wellbeing (outside of that which was strictly obligatory; in my world, it's illegal to starve your kid, for example). I was parentified, objectified, beaten, and broken, and a lot of terrifying, horrifying stuff happened in between (I'll not get into it; it's too much, and I don't want you to be sad). I've been altered forever because of it all.

As it was taught to me as a child, I needed to make up for my existence by serving my master - in this case, "master" is defined as either a parental-type caretaker, a teacher or a professor, or a romantic partner, or even a friend who didn't seem to mind that I am a thing that breathes. In my case, "serving my master" looked like bringing home excellent grades, making sure the house is spotless at all times, taking care of my siblings, and doing literally whatever was asked of me, no matter how uncomfortable I felt about it or what it cost me. Again, I won't get into it; it's really not pretty.

There were PUNISHMENTS (some subtle, others very much not subtle) for failing to jump through these hoops. There were different and less severe punishments for jumping through the hoops I was meant to fail at. I did everything I could to avoid these punishments (imagine my shock at the fact that they couldn't really be avoided, despite my best efforts), bending myself up like a pretzel into whoever those in my vicinity wanted me to be. It was like the most hellish game of Twister - I couldn't fathom at the time that the conditions of this "game" were unfair, and I tore myself to pieces every single time I fell down, because at the time, tearing myself apart hurt less than having others do it for me.

But still, that's not to say it was all bad. It's not as though there was never smiles or laughter or wholesome things then. And I do know that those who were in charge of my care did love me, even if their upbringings left them unable to show it in non-violent ways. It's just that all the other stuff, all the other ways that the world seemed to be telling me that I was hated, unwanted, didn't belong, and should disappear were overwhelmingly heavy, and I almost didn't make it.

Against all odds though, I did make it. With your help, and with the help of a few very important others, I made it. I was 22 when I made it to safety, and from there, things were really weird at first. At the time, it had been ground into my skull that empathy is weakness, mercilessness is strength, cunning and ruthlessness were lauded as virtues, and emotions and expressions of wants and needs are for other people, not for me, because when I do it, it's just evidence that I'm nothing but a selfish, manipulative attention-seeker who likes to trick people into doing things for me when they shouldn't have to. When they do it, it meant that I didn't do a good enough job of anticipating their wants and needs before they had to express them, and that, too, was a punishable offense.

I can't say that I was a very kind or even a very good person then. Others try to convince me sometimes that the goodness was in me, but I think that's probably not true; I know the judgment and scorn with which I viewed others when they did not live their lives through the same harsh lens that I was brought up with. I remember how angry I used to get internally whenever I'd see children speak without permission at the grocery store. I remember the contempt I felt at schoolchildren who were allowed to stay home when they were sick. I remember all the manipulative ways I got my siblings to comply with my caretakers' rules, because if I failed to keep them in line, I was going to be the one who was punished for it, not them. I remember just how mistrustful I was towards anyone who was different from me, and how very little empathy I had for other people at the time; after all, it was taught to me over and over again that there is only one correct way to be a human (that's just "common sense", right?? this is sarcasm - insert a sigh and an eye roll here), and compassion is how you either get screwed over by other people, or end up making it so they can't survive on their own. In those days, either way, if something bad happens to me, or if something bad happens to someone else, it's my fault for having cared too much in the first place.

I was accustomed to other people using me as though I am something that is disposable. I was, with only a few exceptions (you know who you are; thank you!), accustomed to receiving verbal, physical, and even sexual violence whenever I wasn't "perfect" as defined by those within my vicinity. This was my "normal" for a very long time, and my "normal" blinded me to a variety of things, including, joy, love, care… and perhaps counterintuitively, the suffering of other people. There was so much that I simply couldn't see.

So the whole "safety, compassion, and empathy" thing was all very new and foreign to me. It took me a long time to get used to. And in the process, I lashed out often at the very same people who were trying so hard to help me, not unlike a dirty, mangy, rot-afflicted cat being captured and taken to the vet - all growls, claws, and teeth that mean BUSINESS - incidentally, did you know that cats have flesh-eating bacteria in their mouths that can make you lose an arm if they bite you, even if you get treatment promptly?

But through my kicking and screaming and resistance, I was gently held accountable for all my bullshit. What was most shocking, I think, was the fact that the people who were with me were able to hold me accountable without judging me, even when I was behaving in ways that were objectively not very lovable. But I learned. I learned, and I'm different now. I'm not the same bitter, angry, spiteful, hard-hearted person I used to be. I'm always learning new and better ways to listen to and relate to other people. I'm always learning more and more about lives and stories that look very different from my own. I am always learning to increase my self-awareness and communication skills. I'm always trying harder to learn how not to react harshly, with judgment or violence, when I feel hurt, angry, or afraid. It's not to say that I never make mistakes anymore; I can still be harsh and judgmental sometimes, and that's not great when it happens. But I can see clearly now that the true definition of strength is in choosing to be soft, loving, and kind, even in a world as fucked-up as this one, and even when you know you're gonna get hurt for it.

But it took a lot of help and a lot of courage for me to get to this point. I can say with absolute certainty that pulling back the veil on all the crap I lived through (instead of burying my head in the sand and pretending that it was all normal and okay) is, in some ways, more painful than the events themselves. Finding and rooting out all the shitty coping mechanisms I developed, staring at my own ugliness in the face, choosing to love and care for that ugliness anyway until it becomes something beautiful, breaking myself down piece by piece, and stitching myself back together from scratch… all of it without any kind of anesthesia, haha… doing this took unimaginable strength, and it's not something that people can do without help, I think; I've been lucky enough to have received a lot of hands, outstretched to me, trying to lift me up, even while I was trying to bite them; living life without chains, outside of the dark hole that I knew, seemed terrifying then, and I couldn't understand at the time that they were trying to help me to be free. I'm glad that I understand a lot more things now. But I still have so very much left to learn, and so much lost time to make up for…

You can do this, too. You have the necessary intelligence, courage, and strength of heart for it. And you have lots of people who would be willing to help you. I am one of them. So please try, because refusing to try is tantamount to saying that I am stronger than you.

And don't you DARE try tell me that some derpy, feeble, traumatized, autistic nerd like me is stronger than you. That's impossible, and you'll never, ever get me to believe that kind of nonsense. I know for a fact that you're better than me in every possible way, so if I can crawl my way back into the light with a bit of help, then so can you. That "bit of help" is right here in front of you; all you have to do is take the hand that is outstretched to you. Even if there wasn't already a lot of hands outstretched to you, mine will always be here, waiting; that much is a constant. You don't get to say that there is no one who is willing to try for your sake. You don't get to say that there isn't someone who cares. I am literally right here, and I always will be, even long after my ephemeral, unremarkable life fades unnoticed into obscurity.

I don't want to leave this on a melancholy note though, so I'll leave you with this picture, done by a person named Kate:

You are loved. You are needed. You are irreplaceable. Whatever it is that you're doing over at The Edge of Creation, make good, kind, and loving choices. And please come back to us safe and sound.

Your friend, Lumine

Really, it will sound so dumb but I don't care I really, REALLY thank you both, Yomi and apoplecticgalaxy for wishing Shadow his birthday You guys have no idea how much it means to me Like, I'm usually glad that people wish me my birthday, but right now, I feel genuinely happy that Shadow's got "happy birthdays". Like, truly I can sleep peacefully knowing that he had two people care about him enough to wish him his birthday It feels like he threw a birthday party and nobody showed up, which was starting to genuinely break my heart (maybe because I haven't had a birthday party myself in well over 11 years... While I'm only 22 because nobody ever wants to come), but now that you two have showed up, I'm like "Yes!! My boy did NOT celebrate his birthday alone. He had people with him!! Yay!!" And like, you guys wishing him his birthday kinda makes him a tiny bit more real in a way? Like, people are acknoledging his existence? I mean, yeah, he doesn't exist, he's just a fictional character... But he fucking AGES every year, while all my other ocs are forever the same age (or until I update it) And like, he's almost like a best friend of sorts to me? I KNOW he's not real But You have no idea how real he is to me He is 22 today, but he's been in my mind for around 11 years (technically even more if you count the era when he was a girl) And And fuck, I feel like in whataver time space and universe you can imagine, as long as I would exist there, I'd have something in me that wants to create him. Like, fuck, he's not real but we have such a strong bond Something that's not even really explicable And, as I said in the comments of one of my posts, I'm usually called "Laviko" on social medias. But when my name is taken, you can be sure you'll find me by looking for both his name and mine. Like this Tumblr!! He's so important to me that his name comes first (which is good because it also sounds better this way).

Like, he is a part of me! And, yeah, all ocs (or most of them I think) are part of ourselves... But that's not what I mean. He's LITERALLY a part of me I just can't imagine my life without him Like, if I feel too shy or worried to do something, I'm like "Just imagine what Shadow would do in this situation" and it god damn helps! Hell, I'm not even sure I'd be here without him When I'm feeling sad and no one's there to reassure me, HE is there for me (sure, it's technically just me, but, you know, saying to yourself comforting words is just fucking sad... But if it's "someone else" it makes you feel better hearing it) Sometimes, if I have to buy things and can't decide between many options, I just go with what he would like! Because it helps Really. He's just a silly non existent guy (and it's not like an imaginary friend), but he means so much more to me... So, seeing people acknowledging him and wishing him his birthday makes me so so SO happy You have no idea

You made both the boy and me very happy

Thank you again so very much guys You two are awesome You're amazing, you rock

I love you guys Stay hydrated <3

PS : If you ever want more lore, I'd gladly offer But I don't expect it. I'm just saying

I'm really just grateful he wasn't alone for his birthday

My boy deserves love and affection So, thank you both a thousand times once again

<3

[makarigreycortes]

They were raised in Spain 🇪🇸 specifically but these are all the different Spanish speaking countries they are from

Penny: Colombia🇨🇴

Phil: Nicaragua🇳🇮

Sebastian: Guatemala🇬🇹

Bob: Puerto Rico🇵🇷

Peter: Dominican Republic🇩🇴

Natalie: Venezuela🇻🇪

Pedro: Costa Rica🇨🇷

Susie: Argentina🇦🇷

JJ: Cuba🇨🇺

Their 1st Language is obviously Spanish but they took English as a second language there are a total of 6 brothers and 3 sisters and here's the spirit animal of theirs

Penny:🐸

Phil:🦎

Sebastian:🦊

Bob:🐰

Peter:🐱

Natalie:🐵

Pedro:🐔

Susie:🐻

JJ:🦔

They were orphans adopted from Colombia, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Puerto Rico, Dominican, Republic, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Argentina & Cuba w/o birth certificates and of course they knew their birth years, genders, sexual orientations, biological sexes, ethnicities, races and they have different personas depending on their appearance and it took time for me to figure out that they never knew when their own birthday's were and they used to performed alot back when they lived in Spain and then in 2008 they moved to the United States to learn English and they started performing popular songs to improve their English and they taught non-fluent Spanish speaking people how to sing a song in Spanish (the correct way) and they are bilingual meaning that they speak 2 languages at the same time and they're known for being Sensory Friendly and because back in Their home country (Spain) they loved celebrating other people's birthdays because of the fact that no one would ever celebrate them which is so sad and they went bankrupt and lost their job as performers and have to move back to America and some Biracial (Afro-Latino) guy that had tattoos on his arms and legs and was tall about 5'9" and he had black hair in dreads and he was chasing them around the restaurant and when they started singing 5 Nights at Freddy's 3 Die in a fire by Living Tombstone (Versión Español) by Ulikander4001, I can't fix you (Versión Español) by Kira0Loka, Tokyo Ghoul Unravel (Versión Español) by ilonqueen Death By Glamour (Versión Español) by Ray Scratch, I'm Just Your Problem (Versión Español) by Dariadubs, Peaches (Versión Español) by Bastián Cortés & Transm1t by Taboo from the Black Eyed Peas and he loved it and he hired them all and one time they were on stage in front of a whole entire audience and they were nervous and kept getting booed and when they saw someone with a badge and of course their English wasn't really that good so? They translated that song from English to Spanish so? They were known for being Sensory Friendly and because they were hired to do their jobs by a guy named Osmand Luis Rodriguez

Their original forms of the characters are a small-sized gibberish speaking species however I am very unsure of what this species of non existing animal is called but I wanna take one home and keep it as a pet but it's not real but imma be for real low key honestly? Imma be for real with y'all I'd probably keep the bunny as a pet and to be honest rabbits make great pets because I don't want that fox eating him but please remember that this is a "fictional universe" and these are all just cartoon animals and but in the series itself they have facial features of marionettes and the bodies of MiiCharacters and they all have pear-shaped heads, triangular shaped noses sock-puppet like mouths and round eyes rotated in the same position and the females usually have makeup on unlike that one brother that is the only male character to possess the most androgynous-like persona

The fact that they all have different tastes in music

The favorite list

Penny: Techno

Phil: R&B

Sebastian: Funk

Bob: Alternative

Peter: Hiphop

Natalie: Eurobeat

Pedro: Disco

Susie: Soul
