"Okay, and if everything developed as it was supposed to..." Adrien muttered to himself, slowly taking off the plastic bag he'd wrapped around his hair, "...It should look..."

Adrien studied his reflection in the mirror. He was right; It did look. BAD.

He went to fish the box the hair dye came in out of the trash, just to check for sure. Indeed, they looked nothing similar: The box showed what looked like a subdued strawberry blonde, and the mirror showed an orange that wouldn't be out of place in a construction zone.

"This is fine," he said to himself, gritting his teeth. "...Nothing washing some of the dye out can't fix."

So, Adrien bent over his bathroom sink and began to scrub at his roots like his life depended on it, because in that moment it felt like it very much did. Buckets and buckets worth of bright, kindergarden-crayon-orange seeped into the sink's drain, until it finally gave way to an only slightly better highlighter-orange shade of runoff dye.

After that good 5 minutes of "fixing it", Adrien looked back to his reflection in the mirror. No change, aside from his mouth falling open in abject horror.

"Oh god, no no no no—"

Looking to his hands brought him no comfort, as they now were stained just as orange, like he was the Lady Macbeth of shoving his hands up a jack-o-lantern's ass. And just as Lady Macbeth experienced, no amount of scrubbing would rid his hands of the "damned spot"—one which covered the entirety of his palms and fingers.

A squeaky voice echoed from behind him—One who'd clearly been watching this spectacle the entire time. "Looks like you missed auburn big ti—"

"YOU'RE NOT HELPING!" Adrien shouted back, letting the sink still run—the dye wasn't even willing to part from its ring around the drain, it seemed. Adrien nearly buried his face in his hands, before he stopped himself from spreading the horrid disease further. "God, my father's going to come back from the dead just to kill me for this. —I can't go out looking like this!"

"Luka Couffaine goes out with dyed hair all the time."

"Luka Couffaine does not look like a fucking papaya, Plagg!" Adrien collapsed over his sink, debating whether or not this mistake was worth taking up teenage alcoholism. "I can hear it already.... I'll be called 'Orange Boy' for the rest of my life..... I just wanted to not be blonde anymore, and look at me," he whined, "I'm a disgrace!"

"At worst you look like a fruit!" Plagg replied. "And everybody already knew that about you."

If Plagg had shoulders to grab, Adrien would have done so, just to violently shake him. Maybe rub off some horrible mango-colored hue on his body too, just to impart upon the kwami some of his misery.

"...God," he lamented. "I have to tell Marinette... Warn her about what I've done to myself."

Who wants a Covid special of my internal dialogues with the boys? I've missed writing them so I needed to give them a little love this morning. I'm also attempting to get that part of my brain working again to prove I haven't entirely lost my writing ability this week because that would be tragic. As always, it's below the cut.

Matt: Put orange juice on the list.

Mikey, raising a brow questioningly at Matt: She has almost two bottles in the fridge already...d'ya really think she needs a third?

Matt: Yes. Put it on the list. And more Tylenol.

Frank, leaning on the kitchen counter: Think she's been cravin' spaghetti so I'm gonna make some.

Matt: Pretty sure her family is dropping off a Thanksgiving meal tonight. She doesn't need you to cook, Frank.

Frank: Fine, then I'll make it for her tomorrow night, altar boy. Point still stands, I'm making her some damn spaghetti soon. With garlic bread, too, because that's the only way her son will eat it.

Mikey: That’s a good idea actually, she hasn't been wantin' to eat lately. Maybe we should make her more things she's been cravin' to get some food in her.

Frank: And maybe we should put somethin' in her diffuser to make her finally go to sleep.

Bella, on the couch: I can hear you three from over here, you know.

Frank, calling across the room: Good, go to sleep. Stop thinkin' about that damn Christmas story you have half written for Red here.

Mikey: He's right, ya need your rest, pet. Ya were awake in bed last night for two hours just thinkin' 'bout that story.

Bella, sheepishly: ...I blame Covid. But I was also thinking about your Christmas fic, too, Mikey.

Mikey: Ya need to rest, love. Worry 'bout the stories later.

Bella, pouting: But I miss you all.

Matt, making his way to the couch and sitting down: We haven't gone anywhere, sweetheart. We're all still here, just waiting for you to get better.

Bella, muttering: Fine, but I still miss you all.

Matt: Is there anything else you want at the store? Mangoes?

Frank: I doubt you're gonna find some good mangoes this far north at this time of the year, Red.

Matt, glaring over his shoulder at Frank: Watch. Me.

Mikey, annoyed: Alrigh', enough bickerin' the both o' ya. Is there anythin' else ya want from the store, pet?

Bella, sitting up: Yes.

Matt, leaning closer: What do you want, sweetheart?

Bella, grabbing Matt by the collar and pulling him closer: For the love of God, please bring me back some vanilla moose track ice cream. I beg of you. I can't stop thinking about it.

Matt: That--that might be a bit cold for your sore throat right now.

Bella: It's incentive for me to get better, Matty.

Frank, calling across the room: It's on the list, darlin'. Don't you worry. Now you cuddle with your cat and get some rest, we'll take care of the groceries.

Matt: I'll send Mittens over to cuddle, too. He misses you.

Bella, wide-eyed: You're going to let me cuddle with Mittens?

Matt, grinning: Whatever gets you to go to sleep. Go rest already, he's on his way over. Then when we get back you can drink more orange juice.

Mikey, muttering: Always with the damn orange juice.

Matt, annoyed: Because it helps!

Ron Weasley x Male!Ravenclaw!Granger!Reader

---

Walking with some of his friends, (Y/N) was trying to decide what to do in his free period.

"-And my mother keeps trying to get me to date the neighbor boy, too! She just won't quit it!" Rylie Hops, a fellow Ravenclaw, exclaimed to (Y/N), who just now tuned into the conversation.

"What's the neighbor boy got that I don't have?" Cooper Brand flirted with Rylie, the Slytherin as cunning as they come.

Rolling his eyes, as he always found himself in the middle of their flirting, (Y/N) sighed and looked around. He spotted his older sister and her friends and decided it was time to leave the conversation (not that he was much part of it in the beginning).

"I'll see you guys later, yeah? I've got to go ask Hermione something," he cut Cooper off, not that he really cared.

"Oh, see you (Y/N)!" Cooper waved him off as he walked.

"I'll save you a seat at dinner!" Rylie called before turning back to Cooper.

Approaching the frizzy haired sixth year, (Y/N) waved to her.

"Hey 'Mione!"

"(Y/N), I thought you had Astronomy?" Hermione asked, gearing up to scold him for skipping a period.

"No, I had it just barely, it's my free period now. Cooper and Rylie are at it again so I figured I'd join you guys. Harry, Ron," he nodded to them in greeting.

"(Y/N)," Ron greeted back with a smile, Harry vaguely waving as he stared at someone across the courtyard.

"They're still at it?" Hermione questioned, looking back down at her book and twirling her quill. "You just need to tell them they like each other."

"It doesn't work like that, 'Mione. Cooper is in love with Rylie so he jokingly flirts with her because he thinks that's how he'll win her heart, but Rylie thinks they're just that; jokes! I think it's best to just leave them to figure it out on their own," (Y/N) replied, sitting on the bench next to Hermione and Ron, trying to avoid Harry (who was sitting on the ground in front of the bench for some reason).

"Love is so stupid," Hermione scoffed, shaking her head and writing something on her parchment.

"I don't know, it could be kind of fun!" Ron shrugged, looking at (Y/N). (Y/N) turned to look at him but Ron turned before he could get caught.

"How would you know?" Harry laughed, patting his friends shoe.

"Oh, what do you know about love, Harry?"

"Not enough..."

Leaning over to whisper to Ron, (Y/N) looked Harry up and down.

"What's up with him?" (Y/N) whispered.

"I dunno, I've been trying to pry it out of him for days, but no luck."

Whatever Harry had been looking at didn't seem to hold his interest anymore as he turned around to face his friends on the bench.

"(Y/N), you're really good at transfiguration, right?"

"What isn't he good at?" Ron asked rhetorically, missing (Y/N)'s surprised look.

"McGonagall loves you," Harry went on, Hermione hesitantly looking up from her book as she caught on to what he was saying.

"Um, I s'pose. Why?" (Y/N) replied with a head tilt.

"We need your help with something-"

"Are you sure we should be wrapping him up in all this?" Ron asked, his question going unheard.

"Meet us under the staircase by the One-Eyed-Witch statue after dinner, alright?" Harry continued.

"Uh... okay?" (Y/N) agreed, unsure as to what they'd need a fifth year for.

"You really don't have to if you don't want to," Ron reassured him, shaking his head at Harry's eagerness.

"It would help us loads, I know how you are with transfiguration, but Ron's right. Come if you want, it's okay if you don't," Hermione put a comforting hand on (Y/N)'s shoulder.

"I'll be there," (Y/N) shrugged.

...

"So, what do you need my help for?" (Y/N) asked as he got close enough to the trio under the staircase.

"We've planned this prank for Malfoy-"

"Hermione, you're planning a prank?" (Y/N) asked his sister incredulously, kind of impressed.

"I didn't want to but you know how I am with Malfoy," was her response.

"The point is we need a specific transfiguration spell that takes a lot of skill and concentration," Harry informed.

"Why can't Hermione do it?"

It was silent for a moment when Ron spoke up, "Because you're better than her at transfiguration."

With raised eyebrows, (Y/N) turned to his sister.

Hermione let out a sigh and rolled her eyes, "It's true. I've never told you but you are better than me at transfigurations, and I can't do the spell."

"Alright what's the spell?" (Y/N) chuckled.

Harry handed him a piece of paper with the information on it.

"Just look into it and practice it, we'll need you in a week," Harry told him, patting him on the shoulder. "Thanks, mate."

"It's not like I've got anything better to do." (Y/N) shrugged.

"Harry, look," Hermione whispered to her friend, pointing up the stairs. Whatever they saw had them running up them, but (Y/N) and Ron stayed where they were.

"A prank on the Slytherins, huh?" (Y/N) laughed as he put the slip of paper into his bag.

"Yeah, just Malfoy acting like the ferret he is," Ron joked back, leaning against the wall. (Y/N) joined him there, twiddling his thumbs.

Ron rubbed the back of his neck, glancing over at (Y/N) nervously.

"I've been thinking about what we were talking about the other day, in the courtyard..." Ron trailed off.

"What, Cooper and Rylie?"

"Yeah, the love thing. And I was wondering... have you ever been in love?"

Taken aback, (Y/N) blinked and gulped, trying to think.

"Uhm... I'd like to think so."

Ron nodded for a bit, looking deep in thought.

"Did they love you back?"

"I'm not sure... I haven't done anything about it. Yet."

"Oh. Well, what does it feel like?"

(Y/N) hummed in thought, "It hurts. I'm not sure if it's just because I don't know if he likes me back, or if being in love just hurts like this, but it hurts."

"'He'?"

(Y/N) nodded, looking at his shoes.

"Being in love, at least for me, is thinking about them. Not all of the time like some people say, but whenever you're life pauses for a moment... like you're outside and suddenly everything but the breeze stops and the sun is setting, it's tranquil. And the only thing I can think is that I want him there with me. Or when I make myself coffee I wonder how he likes his, or if he prefers tea instead...

And when he talks to me my heart feels like it's running right out of my chest, and I'm just so sure that my face is on fire, because that's what it feels like." (Y/N) turned to Ron, taking a deep breath.

"Have you ever been in love?"

Ron slowly cupped (Y/N)'s cheek, looking into his eyes to make sure it was okay. When he didn't object he took his hand with his free one and leaned in until their lips barely touched.

"I think so."

(Y/N) leaned forward and sealed the kiss, his free hand holding Ron's elbow. Their lips moved together, a partnership that would change their friendship forever. Ron couldn't believe he was doing this, not that he was thinking about much other than how sweet (Y/N) tasted on his lips, the cider on his mouth still lingering after dinner.

Butterflies swarmed (Y/N)'s stomach, violent and harsh compared to the daydream people write about.

"(Y/N)?" Hermione shouted as she walked down the stairs. "Ron?"

The boys gasped and pulled apart, (Y/N) wiping at his mouth before turning towards Hermione, clearing his throat.

He knew he looked like he'd just been making out with his big sisters best friend, but would she know that?

"Yeah, Hermione?" (Y/N) tried to hide the tremor in his voice.

"Aren't you two coming? Harry's run off after the Hufflepuff girl again and I can't find him."

"We'll help you look," Ron agreed, nodding and running a had through his hair.

Hermione looked them up and down suspiciously for a moment, but turned around eventually anyways.

Not knowing what to do, or say, the boys silently followed after her- not looking at each other.

Was this good? I need more practice with kissing scenes :/

Hope this was a good prequel for you mango!

FAVORITE CDRAMAS - 2024

This year, I finished 33 dramas (including minis, movies, one variety show, and some left over from previous years). Among those, these were my favorites, including a short "about" summary or an "explain this poorly."

NOTES

All of these are ancient costume dramas, unless noted specifically.

I don't care if a drama has a happy or a sad ending, as long as it's well written.

THE STARS: These are the ones that I not only super enjoyed, but also score great on all critical aspects: plot, writing, character depth, visual appeal, and the ability to capture and hold the viewer's attention. ✅Recommend! THE CHECKMARKS: They're great and I really, really enjoyed them, and they made me squee too🥰 but they're not as technically perfect as the ones above. Still awesome dramas, and I recommend them! ✅Recommend! OTHERS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT: They're not a third tier, or an honorable mention. Generally, they're not that great technically, or missed the list by a botched ending, or something in the technical aspects was missing, but I enjoyed them nevertheless and want to talk about them for some reason. Other than that, they're just listed in the order in which I watched them.

SUBTITLES: Please help stop the prejudice against Mango subtitles. Everything I've watched from them this year has had excellent subs.

ON ROMANCE: Though I appreciate it, I'm not really all that much into the romance aspect of dramas. I say this because I know many people watch them specifically for the romance, and I've seen comments asking how soon the couples kiss. At the end of a drama, I tend to not even remember if they kissed or not (unless it was memorable - either because it was a very good kiss or a very bad one😂). So, with that disclaimer said...

THE STARS

"A JOURNEY TO LOVE" Liu Shishi, Liu Yuning, Alen Fang, He Landou, Chen Youwei, Wang Yizhe

I watched half of this in January and it was broadcast after I posted my faves from last year, so it goes in this year's list.

Premise: Emperor is kidnapped. No one really wants to rescue him. Ning Yuanzhou (Liu Yuning) puts together a team of Ocean's Eleven Ning's Six to bring him back, including an assassin, a crossdressing princess, an angry doctor, a womanizing archer, an engineer puppy, and an animal-loving defense specialist.

"LOVE YOU SEVEN TIMES" Ding Yuxi, Yang Chaoyue

Left over from 2023.

Premise: Seven shorter stories strung together by the overarching plot of trying to recover the God of War's powers and figuring out what happened with a powerful evil fairy.

"BELL RINGING" Li Daikun, Song Fangyuan

Mixture of modern and ancient, but modern is main. Twelve 20-ish minute episodes.

Explain it Badly: The tragic story of what happens when you don't read the fine print when signing a (magical) contract. [I reviewed it properly here.]

"THE LEGEND OF SHEN LI" Zhao Liying, Lin Gengxin

Explain it Badly: The goddess of war has become a chicken. An unfeeling immortal feels. This is catastrophic. But first, he buys the chicken.

"IN BLOSSOM" Ju Jingyi, Liu Xueyi

Premise: Coroner gets kidnapped and subjected to a forced face transplant by jealous socialite who wants her boyfriend. Socialite marries coroner's BF but is killed at the wedding. Coroner, who now looks like the socialite, teams up with former boyfriend (who doesn't know about the face swap) to solve cases.

"UNCHAINED LOVE" Dylan Wang, Chen Yuqi

Left over from 2022, actually.

Explain it Badly: The empire's Most Eligible Eunuch, who everyone wants to bed, and the concubine who really Does Not Want to die with the dead emperor. [I wrote about it more properly here.]

"CALL ME BY FIRE - SEASON 4" Singing variety show

Not a drama, but I'd really be remiss if I didn't include it here. The grip this show had one me! I'll just copy what I wrote before:

Explain it Badly: Call Me by Fire is going to ruin me for normal concerts. What do you mean your show doesn't have singing, dancing, playing instruments, Peking Opera, acting a whole cinematographic mini movie with costumes, flying and dancing on wires, fighting live without doubles, the multilevel moving stage burning, explosions, drowning, trees falling, *WHEEEZE!* and fake rain all at once?! ...That explains it pretty well, actually.

I started watching this for Miyavi and then I was HOOKED.

THE CHECKMARKS

"WHITE CAT LEGEND" Ding Yuxi, Zhou Qi, Ding Jiawen, Zhang Yicong, Feng Man, Anwaer Kuddusjan

Explain it Badly: Catboy detective (Ding Yuxi, of course; he has the white cat role pegged) adopts a golden retriever puppy and four other fools to solve cases and get a government job. And then there's the orange cat.

"DRAMATIC SELF-HELP STRATEGY" Jin Zixua, Hao Fushen

Mini-drama from 2023. 25eps x 10min

Premise: Actress transmigrates into a drama she's acting in ... as a character who's about to be killed because her husband has just died! She must save him, solve the mystery of his murder to save herself, break a time loop, and return to the real world.

A hidden gem. The mystery is pretty well done in this drama, which is super rare, especially in minis.

"NANCHENG BANQUET" Wang Youshuo, Zhao Zhaoyi, Xia Ningjun

Explain it Badly: Assassin loses her memory, becomes a cartoon bunny sunny fake eunuch, the emperor's bad-influence bestie, and her grumpy former target's employee. Everyone's lovely. [I explained it properly here.]

"LOVE IN THE DESERT" Alen Fang, Hankiz Omar

A Secret Third Option (Why I liked it): I really enjoyed watching this; it was very different from other costume dramas. From the setting (desert tribes instead of high-society cities) to the soundtrack, to the "This is allowed now?" moments, this was different in a good way. The costumes were so many (about 1 every 2 eps for FL, and a whole bunch for 2FL, + other characters) and every single one of them was top notch; the best I've seen in a cdrama so far.

"LOVE GAME IN EASTERN FANTASY" Esther Yu, Ding Yuxi

Almost a Star: This was a super fun drama. :D It's lighthearted, and the first five episodes are laugh-out-loud funny. Everyone's really nice, even most of the villains - you end up feeling for them as well, and most of them redeem themselves. And all characters are fully fleshed-out, even the mini-villains the party encounters along the way. Esther's costumes are SO pretty, too. [I did a proper review of it here.]

"BLOSSOM" Meng Ziyi, Li Yunrui

Almost a Star: This drama surprised me by doing time travel AND "going against fate" differently. I also liked how, despite looking like it would go in that direction, it wasn't a revenge drama, but the protagonist really tried to make life better for everyone. Good plot, good writing all throughout, good characterization, keeps your interest. The first full-length drama I watch from a director whose minis I enjoy. Definitely recommend!

OTHERS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT

"SECRETS OF THE SHADOW SECT" Hu Yiyao, Lin Zehui

Mini drama. 24 eps x 12 min

Almost a Checkmark. Honestly, I don't remember why this wasn't a checkmark. But I also honestly cannot remember the ending. So maybe that had something to do with it. However, before that, the cinematography and sets were beautiful and the plot was interesting and well-written. The characters were engaging, as well.

"HEART OF ICE AND FLAME" Huang Tingting, Li Daikun

Mini drama. 24 eps x 10 min. Cliffhanger ending.

Ep 24 is a cliffhanger and a hook for a new plot. You can take ep23 as an ending, if you want, I guess. The production value was low, but the plot was good, and the main characters were such endearing dumbasses. The two leads play 3 characters/personas each, and each has their own distinct personality and has iconic moments. ML's main persona (dumb prince) unknowingly marries all 3 of FL's, each for different reasons, and she (in reality a former general) plays along because she wants his heart (literally). Then there's the wizard who's stuck in a snow avalanche but can still send and receive messages. And Chen Zihan, who played Tragicomic Ghost in Word of Honor, plays the mother of scorpions here. TW: If you have a phobia of bugs, probably skip this one.

"BUTTERFLIED LOVER" Rain Lu, Zhao Yiqin

Mini drama from 2023. 22 eps x 20 min

I pretty much try anything from this director because he's honestly top notch. Absolutely stunning works, visually!

Ancient vampires, pretty much. The only reason it didn't rank higher for me was personal - as I mentioned at the beginning of the post, I'm not really into plots that focus only on the romance. But if you enjoy romance plots, I definitely recommend you check this out!

"THE DOUBLE" Wu Jinyan, Wang Xingyue

Almost a Checkmark. Revenge plot and fake identities. For most of the drama, I thought this was amazing, and then I wasn't too thrilled about the ending arc. But the drama was really well done. Visually beautiful, with fun and interesting characters, and multiple, parallel plots, which is something I like. Amidst all the tragedy, it also had two comic relief characters that I enjoyed a lot (the turtle cousin and the attendant who apparently didn't know how to use stairs).

"LOVE'S REBELLION" Zhang Linghe, Jing Tian

Reason to Watch It: Appreciate Zhang Linghe looking 🔥 sometimes evil and sometimes not, and a pretty whale town that reminded me of Kilika from Final Fantasy X (mostly X-2 because of the pastel colors). The characters and their interactions were fun. The villains did a good job being hateable. Pity the frustrating omission of a key fight - what was so problematic about ML's brain-fight with the demon that they had to cut it?? We were left wondering what happened in there.

🔇NSFW Audio! Use headphones while playing video🔇 "MISTAKEN LOVE" Shao Yuqi, Li Daikun

Mini drama. 24 eps x 10 min

A drama that you "watch for the plot" The "plot" = *points at video above* If you watch dramas for the kissing scenes and you don't mind every character being toxic, this is a drama for you.

Really good artistic direction (sets and costumes, camerawork, colors, lighting, music timing, etc.), and honestly the best kissing scenes I've seen in a cdrama (note I did say Chinese drama, and I've only been watching since 2021). And extra kudos to Duan Yixuan for her brave dubbing of FL (note: same voice actress who dubbed Bai Lu in "Till the End of the Moon"). Why "brave?" *points at the video again*😳

"THE STORY OF PEARL GIRL" Zhao Lusi, Liu Yuning

Almost a Checkmark. Would have been a solid Checkmark if not for the last episode. I have nothing against what the last ep told us, but rather against how they told it. It could have been 15-20min long and it would have been stronger for it. I do understand that the dragging was meant as a narrative parallel to how the characters wanted to extend the time they spent together as much as possible (as shown by the very slow soup-drinking and dregs-scraping), but, personally, I lost my patience with the method. Then, on the second half of that ep, it would have been nice if, instead of just showing the meeting from a neutral POV, they'd done it from the protag's POV, letting the viewer experience her emotional turmoil and distraught-ness, much like they did when she was diving for pearls at the beginning. Finally, the very last scene, with the camels, told a story but felt detached; they could have shown an aged version of the character leading into that narration.

I'm currently watching other December releases, but if they make the list, I'll include them in next year's.

✧𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈𝐀𝐍 𝐃𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐍✧

WARNINGS: nothing I know of

✧taglist✧: @heeseung-min @jaeneohee @lovingvoidgoatee @neruishoon (anyone I may have missed)

✧CHAPTER 12✧

Today was a special day for Sunghoon. It's the man's birthday. Y/n had taken him outside for a walk in an empty park, away from potential victims. The girl needed to keep him away from their home so the family can decorate the living room for his surprise party. The girl truly wanted to surprise him as he had been less violent toward her during her pregnancy. Of course Sunghoon knew it was going to happen, what is he, dumb?

So he had gotten rid of all evidence of torture, murder and locked up the basement completely after cleaning it properly. "Babe wanna head to the diner?" Sunghoon asked as the girl nodded "Yeah the babies have me feeling weird today I don't know why" the girl said as she patted her womb. Sunghoon held her hand, smiling as they slowly walked there. She was pretty far long and he didn’t want to take any chances. “What do my angels feel like eating?” Sunghoon asked as y/n smiled.

“Babies want french fries with mango sorbet and mommy wants a salad~” Y/n said as Sunghoon ruffled her hair, he ordered the food, and ordered himself a sloppy joe, as it was the diner’s special. “This diner is super cute~” y/n said “I know right? Very retro style, I heard it;s been up since the early 1980s” he added ”we totally need to take a selfie and send it to Sunoo” the girl snickered as she pulled out her phone to take a selfie with her darling husband. “Say babieeeees” “Babieeees~” he snickered as she took the photo.

“You know what? We should totally bring our girls here once I give birth~” Y/n said “It can be like our little go to place for fast food since we no longer like our old one~” Sunghoon added with a smile. “I’m so glad you’re taking me out like this for my birthday sweetheart, a day to myself, where I can have you all to myself and I don’t even need to try and make an excuse to keep you with me” Sunghoon said. 

Once they had finished their meals, y/n had gotten a text, revealing that the party was ready "Hoonie hoonie lets go homeeee" y/n said as the man snickerred "Already? but I want to-" "Pleaseeeee pretty pleaseeeee?" she pouted as the male pat her head, helping her up as they walked home. "SURPRISE!" he heard the family and friends scream, a sweet smile on his lips as he saw y/n's family, and his friends, even Jay and Jake who we're in a different continent, made it. Sunoo gave Sunghoon a hug "Long time no see bro~" the male smiled.

"Ha- AAAH-" Y/n shouted, as she tried to sing, "Sweetheart are you ok?!" Sunghoon asked as he approached her, the others also turning to her, worried "Y-yes I'm fine- You STAY IN THERE-" she shouted at her womb. This can't be happening. Not today of all days. Sunghoon already had to share his wife with these babies, she can't have him share his birthday too. "Baby what? are you alright?" he asked as y/n faked a smile nodding "All ok- just cramps anyways where were you HAAA- AHHH NO NOT NOW WAIT TILL TOMORROW-" she screamed again as Sunghoon sighed "Sweetheart, why are you trying to hold the babies in?! let me get you to the hospital, rest of you don't worry I'll call you ok?" Sunghoon reassured as he carried her to the car.

Turned out it was actually a false alarm, y/n pouted, as Sunghoon kissed her forehead and drove her to the diner instead. He was still a little confused as to why she tried to hold her babies in. The two sat down as they ordered something to eat. "Wanna talk sweetheart?" he asked as he stared at her, the woman sighed, looking back at him "I just... I felt bad... you already have to share me with two babies and you hate sharing me in general... a-and earlier you were talking about how on you're birthday its your day and you can have me all to yourself... I-I was scared you were going to lose that" y/n admitted.

Sunghoon interrupted her with a loving kiss "The fact that you tried to hold two babies inside you just to protect my feelings proves enough y/n... you love me n I love you, and these babies are like a product of our love. as long as you're with me, im ok." Sunghoon reassured as he smiled at her. "Aww you're so sweet, I'd kiss you right now but I'm pretty sure my water just broke...." Y/n trailed off, teary eyed, as she took deep breaths. "Oh fuck- shit OH NO- WE SHOULD'VE GONE TO THE HOSPITAL-" Sunghoon yelled, realizing a thunderstorm started outside.

Many hours later, at 11pm, y/n was safely in a hospital bed, the two baby girl's in her and, Sunghoon beside her as the family arrived. "Can't believe we conceived our angels at a diner~ now we have a story for them when we have our little family dinners there" y/n smiled as she kissed their foreheads. "There they areee, the new additions to our family~" Mrs Lee smiles "Did you come up with any names yet?" Heeseung asked.

"Why don't we save the naming for another day? we don't need babies named tom and jerry or Disney and Pixar, coz of the anaesthesia" her mother pointed out as y/n stared up at hoon then turned back to her family "Well we had been talking about it for a while and we finally came up with 2 cute names... we think we should name them Avaani and Anaya" she smiled. "The twin who has my jaw and lips is avaani, and the one with hoon's eyes and ears is anaya" she smiled.

tuesday again!

many problems … turning on the gravity check box did not, in fact, fix my simulation. woe.

listening: I saw Sammy Rae live last weekend and it was. fucking phenomenal. thank you random stranger from [redacted] who sold me her tickets. literally one of the best shows of my life. I am still reeling from it. they did a cover of Amy Winehouse's 'Valerie' as part of the encore and it was so good too.

in other news, Cascada has released a new album and it's a cover album and it bangs.

Call Me - Cascada: a brainworm of the week for sure.

I also listened to some The Reign of Kindo because they're an opener for The Dear Hunter tour rn and while I'd listened to them before I had forgotten what they sounded like. (wanted to go to one but it didn't end up working out, that hurt to miss, I'll have to do their next tour for sure)

Sing When No One's Around - The Reign of Kindo: just noticed the comments on this video are turned off ?? weird.

reading: Break-up of Steinger, Iscoe & Greene reads like a Grisham novel: GOD I love weird hyper-local drama.

agnito by Raxheim: tlt fanfic. symbolism, TM.

watching: newest monster factory … some Stephanie Lange who mostly does, like, beauty standards bad style content but makes for good background noise

The Men Who Promised the Impossible: Unlimited Energy by BobbyBroccoli: academic drama!!!!!!!! this one is truly wild, I had heard of it before I think but I love a video essay about shit like this.

We Get Grabbed By A Ghost At Trans-Allegheny Asylum by Watcher: I mostly stopped watching buzzfeed unsolved after their whole streaming service debacle but this got put on as crafting background and I enjoyed it! might start watching more of their stuff again. (I just noticed that I called it buzzfeed unsolved still even though they're their own thing now, oops,)

playing: fallowwwwwwwww. unless we count french horn. I got a new mouthpiece (it was half the price of the futon I got) (it's a cheap futon and a slightly expensive mouthpiece) and I am shocked and embarrassed by how big a difference it is making in my playing. you're telling me the dogshit no-name mouthpiece I stole from my band teacher in high school isn't cutting it??? crazy.

making: I made my cat a cat bed :) it's just two rectangles sewn together with a long rectangular strip as the side. I used some random canvas that I bought at some point for ? tote bag purposes ? I don't remember. the best part is I was FINALLY able to utilize the frankly ridiculous amount of fabric/thread/yarn/etc scraps/old clothing that's too fucked to get donated/etc that I've been saving specifically for stuffing pillows. worked really well, also put some plastic bag scraps in there because she loves lying on plastic bags and so far she definitely likes the crinkles of it. pictured in the photo is the weird I-think-polyester that was wrapped around my walmart futon when it was mailed that I shredded and used as stuffing.

my bird bowl emerged mostly victorious from the kiln!!!! I say 'mostly' because there's a weird spot on the rim where the clear glaze just didn't stick? so I daubed a little more on and put her back on the shelf. but yay. glazed two shallow planters that I'm not super sure what I'll put in yet because they are quite small but we'll see.

eating: made this NYT recipe of sheet pan miso chicken with radishes and lime but also added sunchokes with the radishes and no lime because I forgor. very yummy. will sustain me for the week and now I have more raw chicken thighs in the freezer for future cooking.

after the Sammy Rae concert we stopped for bubble tea for the drive home and I got a "mango pomelo sago" that was really just a smoothie with boba bits in it, it was very very tasty.

misc: speaking of academic drama: one of my friends is dealing with some frankly insane academic drama rn that I am soooo popcorn dot gif over. I can't ever say anything specific about it on here because it will immediately doxx me but if you want tea send me a DM it's so wild

HONEY. | LIL MEECH

chapter three.

"𝙄 𝙙𝙤𝙣'𝙩 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙫𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙤𝙡𝙙, 𝙨𝙚𝙚, 𝙄 𝙖𝙢 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙢𝙮."

-Kali Uchis, circa 2019

10:30 PM

Chile, what you so afraid of?" Nizhoni twirls a piece of her platinum blonde hair around her index finger. Yea, what am I so afraid of? Khaleesi snaps out of her trance and stares over at Niz. "Kali, you know you can out dance every one of them bitches. I don't wanna hear it." Her big sister walks into the large dining room and sits a bowl of fresh fruit on the mahogany table. Kali takes a seat next to Nizhoni and shrugs her shoulders.

“I wanna dance but the boss won't let me, says I've been missing too many nights." She lifts a piece of mango to her lips and takes a clean bite.

"Fuck him! Bitch, don't you wanna make your money? We gotta figure out a way." Khaleesi sighs and looks up at the both of them.

"I'll get your money, tell Dez I'll serve for tonight." Khaleesi had filled in for Kali several times when her boss wouldn't let her dance. Doing her job in secret was already hard, sometimes she just couldn't make it to practice. And sometimes, Khaleesi would serve as a bottle girl and all the tips she would get would go to Kali.

Their family loves to provide for them, the two sisters were like angels to their parents and brother. Q also love to protect them, to protect his family. But their brother just couldn't support Kali's dream of being a professional dancer. It was her dream to make thousands of dollars doing what she loves. "You know what to do, right?"

"Yea, I know the rules."

"If anybody-"

"Call you, I know." Khaleesi stands up from the dining room table and walks through the foyer to get to the grand stairs. Her house-shoe covered feet echoing around the Taylor residence. She was tired of hearing about her brother and Kamari, she just needed some time to herself. Time away from all of this, the Diamond was the place to be for that. Khaleesi looks at the watch on her phone and cusses sharply. She had to be there before 12 and it was already 10:50, she takes off her clothes swiftly and paces into the bathroom.

Khaleesi's swarovski heels step foot onto The Diamond's marble black floor, her hips sway back and forth as she moves around the club with confidence. The beat moves through her body making her throw her hand up in the air. In the other was a big bottle of Dussé, she swings it around and bends over shaking her backside. "Alright now, watch it." Khaleesi's smile flashes in the direction of a man attempting to move behind her. "How about tipping me instead?" She turns around and holds the bottle close to her side.

Khaleesi pulls the side of her white thong out, she watches as he places a stack of ones in the space. She lets go and the material flicks back into place, Leesi pats his cheek and walks away coquettishly. "Dumbass." She drops the bottle off to a nearby section and dances her way back to the bar, Young Nudy's voice surrounds the atmosphere as she leans on the counter. "Two vodkas for the table in the corner!" She screams as loud as she can over the music, the bartender nods her head and retreats to the back.

"I like to pull my mask down and fucking rob em." The young lady comes back with two shot glasses of vodka she sits them on Khaleesi's tray.

"Thank you, girl!" Leesi turns around and spots a commotion in the far right. It was one of the four V.I.P. sections, she squints her eyes trying to see what was going on. Khaleesi walks closer not paying attention to anything or anyone else around her. The lights on the ceiling began to flicker making it harder for her to see. She gets closer and immediately regrets it, it was her brother.

Leesi ducks quickly behind the staircase, her eyes widen as she takes glance after glance. Q Taylor sits on the couch throwing bills repeatedly, the grills in his mouth sparkling every time he smiles. What is he doing here? He's supposed to be gone. His entourage of friends deep around him and Khaleesi knew every single one and they all know her. "Fuck!" She was scared for her life, glued to the spot behind the staircase.

Her eyes move from side-to-side as she tries to think with the loud music in the background. "This can't be happening." What she was wearing, a diamond encrusted bra with marshmallow-colored thongs on her bottom. He would bury her. She'll just go out the back entrance, she thinks. But, what if they're there? As Khaleesi continues looking in Q's direction, she feels a familiar warmth by her shoulder.

"Come on, baby." She feels Kamari's hand squeezing her waist gently, Khaleesi sighs out of relief. She had never felt so much weight lift off her shoulders, her eyes fall on his face. His lips already hovering over hers as the sexual tension between them thickens. "I said come on, unless you wanna get caught." She takes one more gaze at her brother and shakes her head out of fear.

"If he catches me w-with you—I’ll get caught, Mari, fuck it.” She removes his hand off her waist and looks over at him. "I'm sorry, I can't do this with you." The pad of her thumb traces his bottom lip, he stares down at her: his hoodie concealing his face but not to her eyes.

"You think I give a fuck about that shit?" Kamari's words came off harsh but it wasn't like that, at all. His eyebrows creased, she could see the frustration plastered on his face. His hands wrap themselves around her waist once against, he walks her body back into the staircase. The coldness of the metal hits her spine as her tawny-colored eyes look up into his.

"Kamari, I'm serious."

"And I'm serious, fuck Q Taylor!" She clasps her hand over his mouth swiftly, her eyes darting around trying to make sure no one had heard.

"Aye man, stop hogging up the bottle girl. We need some drinks over here!" A man walks toward them and before he could take a few more strides Kamari stops him in his steps. His tatted hand forces him back, his body completely facing the man now. He stumbles from the blow, the drink in his hand dropping to the floor. "What the fuck."

The scowl on Kamari's face was threatening and, quite frankly, scary. "Nigga, get your ass up out of here or run that shit up." He eyes the big chain around his neck then looks back up in his eyes, the man glances down then backs away. His hands up to his side as he assures Kamari he didn't want trouble. His full attention returns back to Khaleesi, it was like two different people. She thinks, silently.

"You didn't have to push him like that, I still need tips, you know?"

"I didn't like the way he was rushing you, he seen us having a conversation and still did." Kamari digs in one of his pockets, his eyes observing every corner of the club as he did. "Fuck them tips, here baby." He pulls out a wad of cash that was clipped together tightly, he places it in her hand and folds her fingers over it voluntarily.

“I can't take this, Mari, please-"

"You can and you will, as long as I'm here you ain't got shit to worry about." Khaleesi couldn't deny that she was just naturally an emotional person, no one had ever cared about her this much except for him when they were younger. Did he really just relieve her for the rest of the night? Yes. She could finally go home and leave early and not worry about getting hit on by weird men. Khaleesi throws her arms around his neck and hugs him tightly, this took him by surprise.

"Get me out of here, please." She didn't care how but Khaleesi just couldn't afford to get caught tonight.

"Yes mam." His voice, barely above a whisper as he grabs her hand quickly. Khaleesi follows close to him, her face hides behinds his shoulder. Her eyes glancing over every once in a while attempting to see what was going on. Her hand was holding his for dear life, she didn't even want to let go for a second. Khaleesi didn't realize how hard she was squeezing but, he could tell. He could tell how terrified she was of getting caught but, she had nothing to be afraid of while being with him. And that's what made him mad. She was still afraid.

Kamari plows his way through a crowd of people, he ignores the dirty looks he gets from women and men as they're moved out of the way.

Khaleesi apologizes almost every second as they walk through, her soft voice not even reaching the sound of the music enough for them to hear. They were now in the back of the club, a part that Khaleesi had no knowledge of what it looked like until this moment.

The warm night air attacks her skin, it was comforting yet refreshing. She breathes deeply and hears the back door slam behind her, Mari. Khaleesi clasps her hands on top of her head and stares out into the empty field of grass sitting behind the club. Was this always here? "You're dead to me." She sings softly, the song had been stuck in her head all morning and night.

Khaleesi looks down at her heels and realizes how badly her feet was aching, her sparkling white digits wiggle freely in the open-toe shoes. She looks back up for a second then feels a hand wrap around her ankle. Kamari concentrates as he unbuckles the strap, he lifts her foot out of the shoe and she feels a pillowy surface hit the pad of her foot. This nigga bought me house shoes? Khaleesi wonders where he got them from, a dumb-founded look dancing on her face as he does the same to her other foot.

"Relax, hid them behind the dumpster earlier when I came."

"You planned this?" She couldn't help the smile lifting on her lips, Khaleesi turns around her face angled up towards his. See one thing that I know, you are not a friend to me. The lyrics continue to interrupt her thoughts, she can't release them even if she wants to.

"A nigga knew your feet would be hurting, although, I didn't know your brother was going to be here." Khaleesi's smile had faded, she looks down to the side.

"I didn't know either, obviously." He presses against her closely, her hands move up his chest. It was rock hard, he was built for sure. The look on Khaleesi's face was painful, her nose scrunching up as she sniffs. "Kamari—"

"Don't think about it." She didn't realize how much he was allowing her to lean into his body, Khaleesi watches as he removes the black Nike jacket off his arms. He drapes the material over her shoulders and his sweet scent floats into her nose. Kamari had a certain nurturing energy about him, like, he would take care of anyone he loves. "I know you still mad at me cause I left."

The feelings in her stomach were swirling and twisting with nerves, she didn't care one second about that. They were face-to-face and there was only one thing she could think of. She shakes her head quickly, "We were young, I don't care about any of that. You had no choice. I was angry in that moment, I'll admit."

Their fingers, now intertwined together. Her hands felt so soft to him, her skin all together was smooth. It was attractive. He had went years wanting to feel her again, her body her everything. "That's all I wanted to hear." A sigh of relief exits his mouth, she looks around for a second at the dark green LED lights radiating down on them. Her eyes shift up to the night sky, her chin resting against his chest as she does so. His eyes had never left her face, the stare was intense as he admires her features.

Khaleesi gasps softly feeling a cold drop of rain land on her cheek. "Shit." Kamari rushes to kiss the raindrop away, feeling his lips on her skin honestly: made tingles erupt in her core. She hadn't felt it in years. His right arm molds itself around her waist pulling her as close as she could come. She felt small in his presence but, it was a good feeling. She felt safe, calm, a sensation of serenity rains over Khaleesi. She had nothing to worry about.

Kamari's lips begin to trail gentle kisses on the side of her face, her head falls and her eyes shut closed. Khaleesi's breathing had picked up slightly, her heartbeat banging against her skin. She attempts to move her hands but forgets they were intertwined with Kamari's, he moves them behind her back with his following. His kisses continue to caress the skin on her face, his lips suddenly moving over to taste hers.

The way their lips move together was hungry-like, they had been craving each-other this entire time. Her skin becomes hot, the rain falling on her had began to soak her hair. They had pulled away from each other several times for him to plant short but heated tongue kisses against her lips. Khaleesi moans in his mouth and snatches her hands out of his grip, the look on his face was congested with passion but he didn't wanna stop kissing her. So he didn't.

Their plump lips slap together, his index finger and thumb holding gently but tightly to her chin. Her legs were becoming weak as he did so, the relaxing feeling in her spine overtakes her body. The palm of his hands now pressing against her lower back, they travel up her spine several times applying pressure. The feeling exploding between her thick thighs was foreign, she hasn't felt pleasure like this since forever.

How could the pressure being applied make her feel this way? Make her weak like this. "Told you I learn some shit." His deep voice rings in her ears, she couldn't even pay attention. Her body completely overstimulated. When his palms reach the top, for the last time, she gasps against his lips. "Mhm." Before Khaleesi could drop to the ground from pleasure, he lifts her swiftly into his arms. She was trying hard to conceal her moans but she couldn't, not from him. Her body language told him everything, she couldn't get enough.

"Mari." Her breath taken away and her voice soft as can be, he wanted badly for his fingers to disappear in the warmth between her legs. The quick and feathery kisses he presses against her ear become gentle nibbles. She couldn't take anymore; did he really just make me orgasm off a massage? Her hands hold the side of his face, Kamari's eyes falling back on hers.

He wouldn't take his eyes off her and that's what made her incredibly feeble. She looks down, noticing her bottom half pressing against his print. The thick outline pushing on his dark-gray sweats. He glances down at his manhood as well then back up at Leesi, her warm core smothering that part of him comfortably. She didn't dare move her hips, Khaleesi wanted to but, she couldn't start something that wouldn't have been finished. "I can't, I can't." His eyebrows creasing together as she frees herself from his warm embrace.

"Khaleesi, I haven't seen you in a while. We don't have to do none of that right now, I just wanna take you in. Your presence, I missed you." It's like they both ignore the pouring rain, he pulls her back into him where she was safe. Her head falling back and his hand supporting her neck out of instinct. He presses a lazy kiss against her lips then trails them down her chin and slowly to her neck. Her hands grasping on to his black shirt for support, he wanted to devour her. And she, didn't know how to feel.

With every kiss he left, the feeling between her thighs ache again and again.

"You can't even last with just my touch, baby." He groans in her ear and rests his lips on her cheek. The way he spoke was as if he was mesmerized by how stimulated Khaleesi was, had she missed him this badly? "I wanna do things to you that you can't imagine and as a man, I promise I'mma take care of that. We can't tonight, love, I gotta get you home."

"No."

"Yes." His voice was soft but authoritative, he arches his eyebrows. Khaleesi didn't know what she was saying, she couldn't believe she wants to stay with him. What happen to her rational fear of Q catching them? Was he still in the club? "I got some business to handle, trust, you'll see me again."

"You make a lot of promises, Kamari Parker. And you better be able to keep them." It was getting to the point where she didn't even want to leave his presence, it felt right to be in. His hand lays on the side of her cheek, she grabs his wrist and kisses it tenderly. Khaleesi trails her lips up the palm of his hand, she pecks the pad of his thumb and looks up at his focused eyes.

"I will, for you." This love story begins in a club—the back of one, at that.

[ezra-returns]

top 10 so far!!

ukraine - jerry heil and alyona alyona with teresa & maria. absolute perfection love it love it mwah. i was already a massive fan of jerry and alyona's music and i'm so happy they will have a bigger audience in malmo ahhh 10/10 nothing i would change &lt;3

spain - nebulossa with zorra. apparently the spanish terfs were mad about it?? idk i think it eats though, its funky and sparkly and we love to see abuelita serving. 9.5/10 because the studio version has weird vocals.

norway - ulveham with gåte. the song wasn't hooking me at first, but the more i hear it the more i love it. i hope it does well, it looks like people really like it!! 9/10 because i'm anxious about their changes to the verses, but it sounds rad and i'm excited to see the revamp!!

finland - windows95man with no rules! i want to love this song, but sara siipola is forever in my heart. mä oon paskana frfr. it's catchy, fun and ridiculous though, just a bit too soon after käärijä in my opinion. 8/10 i would have waited a year, but it is fun!

italy - angelina mango with la noia. fabulous name btw i shall henceforth refer to her as "mango girl." the song is pretty good!! i didn't tune into sanremo this year so i don't know what the competition was like, but the song's not bad! 8/10 i like it

estonia - puuluup and 5miinust with (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi. insane name, by the way, and the longest in the history of the competition. like finland's entry, i want to love it, but something's missing for me. i'll give it time, i'm sure it will grow on me. 8/10 pure chaos /neu

slovenia - raiven with veronika. i keep seeing people calling her the slovenian lady gaga and i want to see it, but something about the song feels like a missed opportunity. i still haven't seen the lyrics, so maybe my feelings will change?? 8/10 she ate i'm just confused

poland - luna with the tower. i've only seen a short clip so far but i liked it, it was just a bit boring for me. 7.5/10 we're in the "bland europop" section now

lithuania - silvester belt with luktelk. i didn't watch their national selection this year either, but i've seen clips of this song. i'm not in love with it tbh. 7/10 sorry silvester. you have a funny name

luxembourg - tali with fighter. again, just bland europop. i'm happy luxembourg, but i wasn't expecting much since it's a tiny country. 6/10 i'm not really impressed

and remember kids: you can post about eurovision, but don't let the ebu take your money!! you can sign the petition to remove israel from the competition here.

Livia: What's that supposed to mean?

Hayla: What do you think miss priss

Livia: Listen, my emotion sensing is going off the charts with all the discomfort in the room from the people your cousin went for and how loud he's getting

Hayla: Hah, you are jealous..Lady Livia Vanrouge, no longer the spotlight so she has to go and try and steal it from someone else who has it!

[shiinavanhellsing]

Aight so boom, I'm doing a part two of the fan casting for the EBKs who are my OCS for Bleach TYBW from a fanfic called PSA. I already did the fan casting for the men and now onto the women!

First off we're gonna start with EBK Azure aka Little Miss “Oh that was your nigga in my DMS?! Lemme go hit him up real quick” aka Little Miss “Bad Bitch I Can Be Your Fantasy” aka Little Miss “Was that your nigga, oh he ate my ass what a bummer” herself aka Little Miss “she a baddie she know she a ten”:

For some reason I was torn between having Ashley Burgos and Kaylar Will as Azure's face claim but what made me choose Ashley was because of the fact that she fits the whole persona of I may look gorgeous but I'll still fuck you up.

Fun fact: Azure is part of the deities and is also a alchemist who's training amongst Uryu Ishida.

•She's reincarnated from the Egyptian air god Shu but yet despite him being a very peaceful deity, she's very well known for being a very violent air warrior.

•Literally had Shuhei feenin for her ass soon as he saw her dancing onstage from the nosebleeds.

•Azure is known for being the calm crazy out of the core four, she's the least temperamental of the EBKs but she's the exact definition of fuck around and find out.

Next up is EBK Nuria aka Little Miss “I shake a luh ass but I still get jiggy” aka Little Miss “I'm too sexy for your bro” aka Little Miss “all the boys want my honey from me” aka Little Miss “pussy put a spell on him he in a trance”:

I was scrolling on my Pinterest feed and I randomly saw Karin Jinsui with red hair that looked fiery and I thought “hmm, maybe she'll fit right in my vision”. Especially since Nuria is known for being girly but she still has that hardcore gritty attitude of hers that's not to be fucked with.

Fun facts: Nuria is literally a shinigami, espada and reincarnated deity

•She's reincarnated from the Japanese fire and volcanic goddess Fuji.

•Grimmjow was obsessed with her when he first saw her presence, he literally damn near killed Loly and Menloly over her.

• Aizen literally wanted her as her queen but she rejected him with the quickness.

•made Kensei weak in the knees as soon as he approached her

Next up is EBK Lotus aka Little Miss “If she keep on muggin imma steal her man” aka Little Miss “big boobs and the butt stay plump” aka Little Miss “that nigga a munch and he gon eat me like a mango” aka Little Miss “my pussy glitters it's gold.....LITERALLY” herself:

Obviously I knew that there was some way that I had to incorporate one of my faves into this story and honestly Jada Kingdom was perfect for this role. But the IG photo of her in the two piece fleece green top and skirt was what sealed the deal for casting her as Lotus.

Fun fact: Lotus is a part of the deities and is a reincarnation of the Vodoun goddess Erzulie aka the goddess of crystals, flowers, plants and sex.

•She has not one, not two but three captains on her rotation at the moment.

→literally turned Byakuya (yes y'all y'all heard me) into a munch and is the sole reason why he has no problems walking in public with his face all shimmery.

→ Kenpachi is obsessed with her so much that he immediately had her stay in his bedroom so that she could “train” and “control her powers” with him better.

→ Shunsui had her recovering in his house from the injuries she had and he folded as soon as he saw her with his kimono on dancing to the music on her phone.

The next one up is EBK Olori aka Little Miss “I'll hijack your nigga and send him home broke” aka Little Miss “dicks up when I step in the party” aka Little Miss “wonder what I do tomorrow that these hoes will get mad at” aka Little Miss “where the fuck is your waistline?” herself:

In all seriousness, I was debating between using Rubi Rose, India Love or Shenseea but then I narrowed it down to Rubi Rose because I saw her more as the kick ass, turn up bitch that barely takes shit seriously.

Fun fact: Olori is reincarnated from the Hawaiian water god deity Maui.

•She damn near got into a fight with Soi Fon when she arrived at the sereiti

•Hichigo aka Zangestu is insanely obsessed with her, likeeeeeee he deadass possessed Ichigo one time so that he could rump

•Immediately clicked with Rangiku as soon as they met each other

•Had a secret fling with Shinji one time and now he's overly obsessed with her well being

•Also got into it with Hyori because of her presence being a “distraction” to the vizords

Last but not least we have not one but two representatives for the youngest EBK members: Dotty and Riina aka Little Misses “we make it rain and we clear it out” aka Little Misses “we at the function let's get jiggy” aka Little Misses “feeling divine and will smack a bitch if she gets outta line” aka Little Misses “got a fetish for lettuce and a need to always get to the bread” themselves:

I'm gonna be real here, my first top choices was either Kenzo B and Shani Boni or Lola Brooke and Princess Sanyy.

But after seeing Girll Codee performing their freestyle on On The Radar, I just knew that they were definitely more fitting for the laid-back goofy, hype and energetic for Dotty (fc is Sha Bigga) and Riina ( fc is Hi Siddityy) who can still keep that big Brooklyn energy.

Fun facts:

Dotty is 15 minutes older than Riina

Both of them are the only fullbringers in EBK

Dotty has thunder powers and Riina has lightning powers

Riina's lightning bolt is very powerful and the only people who are able to use it to enhance their powers or weapons is Renji, Nuria and Ohagi

Dotty's thunder blade can be infused with other weaponry as a way to amplify attacks or to control reaitsu when using spiritual pressure on the offensive side.

Another reason why I chose Girll Codee as a fc for EBK Dotty and EBK Riina was because of the fact that Riina told Kenpachi at first glance to stop being siddity and just say hello to everybody as soon as they enter Paradise Island.

→And before you ask, Oetsu was the one who explained what she meant to everybody else in the soul society.

• they accidentally taught Ichigo, Renji and Shuhei how to get sturdy and Byakuya never let them hear the end of it every time they see him.

•“So, does this mean that Riina and I can't teach them how to lite feet or.....?”

They were paired up with Jushiro until his untimely death.

Both of them loved being around Yachiru and even took her out of Kenny's hands so that he can “train” with Lotus

Walking definition of instigators especially Riina...not to mention that they'll snitch on you if you end up doing some fuck shit you not even supposed to be doing.

So that's it for the people of the EBK members! Who is your favorite male member? Female member? I'm glad that I'm finally finished with this tho. Hopefully I gave y'all a great insight with all of the characters without spoiling too much 🫶🏽

Omg, I had no idea you also eat balut! I looked it up and the banana leaves, the vinegar, the spices. I looked up some other Cambodian food and it reminds me of this Instagram video I saw the other day with this Cambodian girl visiting her mother. Her mother made shrimp fried rice and a couple other dishes and it almost made me tear up a little because of how familiar it looks. It looks like the fried rice my mom taught me how to make, especially if it's cooked in a big wok that's scratched and slightly burned at the bottom from years of use. Plus the little vinegar on the side with minced garlic and chili peppers. If I ever find it again I'll send it to you. I'm looking at desserts now and you're right too about the coconut and palm sugar! We also use banana plantains and mangoes, and let's not forget the banana leaves (what is NOT wrapped in banana leaves or rice paper, lol). You're right that there's similarities between our cultures even if we speak different languages, and I just love that about us. And what I find especially endearing is our abbreviation as Southeast Asians, it's SEA. It's just so 🤍

*hugs you tightly* I remember learning a little bit about that in school, it's sad it's briefly talked about in class and I only learned more about it from reading YA books at the library. There was a book I read from the school library when I was 12 years old that I cannot remember what it was called, but I vividly remember the cover and the story because it stuck with me more than 10 years later. It was about a Cambodian girl where she and her older sister were put in a camp and she loved her sister dearly, but her older sister died before they could make it to the United States. Her memory of her was them dancing together and she carries her memory with her whenever she dances. I feel the 70s was a hard time for SE Asia because my dad was in college, my mom in high school at the time too when the Philippines was put under martial law during the Marcos dictatorship. Particularly in the province my family is from, there were a lot of massacres and brutality from the dictatorship. My dad told me he even remembers there was a time a lot of Vietnamese people came to the Philippines to escape the war. Not pitting us against other Asian nations, but you are right and I feel that SE Asian nations have a specific kind of generational and cultural trauma from colonialism that is different compared to other nations, even if some of us are separated by a sea. It's a pain we all feel and a wound we all suffer from in some way. But we are stronger when we stand together 🤍🤍

I know that got kinda dark so back to the lighter stuff! I can totally imagine Namor and Namora casually eating Cambodian food, not minding the spice but don't tell Attuma it's spicy until he starts coughing and sweating. That's what he gets for oversleeping and missing their morning meeting 🤣🤣🤣

For balut, we call it something else lol (pong thea koun). But yes, many dishes we do share, and i think it’s the infuences from trade route and such. We eat rice with spoon and fork too, and if we do it traditional way, definitely by hand, on the straw mat 🤣 Also we use banana leaves, lotus leaves, and palm leaves as well ! the thing that I miss the most while living here is drinking palm juice out of bamboo tubes. The taste just so distinct, and there’s nothing like it. I remember when I was young and visited my grandfather’s hometown, and the island was fully of mangoes! I remembered eating the green ones because I love sour mangoes more than the ripe one tbh, dipping them in spicy shrimp paste or spicy chili salt. 

The 70′s was truly a really tragic time for most SEA people. My in-laws were actually among the Vietnamese refugees a then camp at the Philippine. I think they were there for about two years before they managed to come to the US. My relatives were refugees in Malaysia/Indonasia. Everyone was trying to escape war and find a better life. They have to leave everything behind, and honestly, that sort of trauma does stick with you to these days, even generation later. 

But yes, moving from the dark stuff, I need Attuma to introduce me to fresh water dolphin! There’s a legend about it, and I need to know if it’s true 🤣🤣🤣 I imagine him just hanging out by the river dock, and calls me over to meet his friend, the fresh water dolphin that everyone thought went extinct.

Joe's Drunk Voicemail Meant for Stella

Author's Note: First new thing I've written in like 2 weeks I haven't gotten my writing mojo back, but it's a start. It's a first draft so obviously I'll be adding more as I write more about their relationship.

Words: 396

Joe stumbled out of the club. Despite his best efforts, he couldn't stop thinking about Stella. It was far too late in the night to crash the wedding and he was too inebriated to crash the reception. She was a married woman now. Married to a man that wasn't him. He did something he knew he'd regret in the morning, but that was a problem for hungover Joe. He called her, trying to put it on speaker so he didn't have to hold it to his ear, he dropped his phone.

"Goddamnit!" Losing his balance as he bent down to pick it up, he stayed on the ground, leanign on the concrete building. "Stella! Stells. Hey! I hope the wedding was nice. I wouldn't know because I never got an invitation. But I'm in New York. I- I miss you. I considered crashing the ceremony. Doing the whole 'I object' thing, but I pussied out so- now your married to some fucking guy who I don't know anything about. All I know about him is he's a boring architect and he seems to make you happy. As happy as I used to make you. I miss you. I miss your voice. I miss the way you'd roll your eyes at my bad jokes while biting back a smile. I miss the way your eyes sparkle in the sun. I miss the way your hair always smelled like fresh mangos. I just- I- I- I love you, Stella. I should never have gone to LA. I should have gone to New York with you. I should have married you. I should have married you." He repeated it more quietly. "I'm sorry about everything. Hell, I'm sorry about this call. I just-" He took a deep breath. "I hope you're happy, Stella. I hope he is everything you've dreamed and everything you deserve. Congratulations. I'm- I'm happy for you." All he wanted was for her to be happy, even if it wasn't with him and even if it killed him. "Goodnight, Stella." Hanging up, he dropped his phone on the sidewalk and unintentionally slammed his head into the wall behind him. "Fuck." Groaning, he sat there for a few moments. He knew he was going to have to get up and find his way back to his hotel. He knew he was going to regret this night.

The Blizzard: Chapter 7

(Author's Note: All warnings are mentioned in Chapter 6. That's all.)

"Hey, sis?" Poketiggy called. "Grandma sent us another chapter!"

"Then read it!" Charlotte called back.

"Alright..."

December 5

"Holy Soulless, this is a huge snowstorm to get through." Scylla muttered, climbing over heaps of snow and ice that used to be buildings, animals, even PEOPLE. After climbing over another body, Scylla said, "Wooow, going through this makes me feel like I'm in the apocalypse again, and that's not a good feeling."

Eventually, Scylla reached the castle, which was the heart of the storm. Literally.

Staring down the sparkling, ice-covered castle, Scylla sighed. "This generation s going to give me a headache one of these days." She muttered, using her frostbitten hands to shove the door open.

An ear turned at Dasher and Glimmer's call for staff from upstairs. Assuming that is where Demetria could be, Scylla teleported in front of the two rulers.

The pyrokinetic instinctively wrapped her arms around Demetria protectively, picking her up and leaving, but not before she heard:

"Hey! That's our -"

"Let them go."

"But -"

"We'll find them again. She'll be a powerful asset to our army."

Scylla teleported home.

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

"-Scylla? Hey, Scylla?" Kiui bugged.

"Yes, small one?" Scylla asked, despite knowing the answer.

"What was it like out there?" Kiui asked.

That knocked Scylla off guard. She...wasn't expecting that. Considering her options... Yeah, she might as well come clean.

"It was...devastating." Scylla starts. "It was like the apocalypse all over again." She hugs herself tightly. "To think that I saw all those frozen -"

Kiui said, "You don't have to talk about it. I was curious. That was all."

"No."  Scylla insisted. "I have to." Inhale. Exhale. "There was a lot of snow, I'll admit that. But... I smelled blood and decay as well. There was the palace; it was covered in ice as well, it was in the heart of the blizzard. The buildings and such that made up the capital city were heavily covered in snow and ice. Demetria... I'd never look at her the same way ever again."

Kiui stood there, processing as she looked at the comatose form of Demetria. From her expression, Kiui would never look at her big cousin the same way again, either.

"When do you think Demetria will wake up?" Kiui whispered.

"HOPEFULLY when Sylvia comes over, because she's going to be over for ten days." Mango said, stepping into view.

"MANGO!" Kiui shrieked. Scylla didn't have the heart to tell the Mercat to lower her voice.

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

When Demetria woke up, she was faced with Sylvia - in a lab coat. That means Dr. Sylveon is in the house. Ugh, feelings.

Demetria groaned and slowly got up, pain flashing across her body. And then a kitten with banana-yellow scales and kiwi-green eyes stared at Demetria, the cat's grey, fluffy fur on end as its tail swiftly moved back and forth nervously.

"Kiui?" Demetria croaked. "What happened?" The cat literally lunged towards the Froster, transforming back into the form of Kiui as she shouted:

"DEMETRIA! YOU'RE OKAY!! I THOUGHT WE LOST YOU!"

Demetria hugged the the sobbing girl tightly, while giving her aunt a quizzical look.

Sylvia sighed. "You froze the kingdom. Congratulations, you're a Froster now."

"And that's bad because...?" Demetria inquired.

Mango stepped into the room. "First of all, you COMPLETELY missed the part where Aunt Sylvia said that you froze the kingdom."

"I'm sorry, I DID WHAT?!"

"Second, you created a blizzard."

"WHAT?!"

"MANGO!"

"Third," Mango winked at Sylvia. "You nearly killed your friend and the crown princess."

"HOLY -"

"MANGO DRAGONFRUIT MOCHISOLAR!!" Sylvia barked.

Mango let out a fake sigh. "You never let me have my fun." She sarcastically said.

Demetria looked like she was processing everything. "Wow, I did some very bad things."

"Well, we're telling everyone we meet about how you froze an entire castle." Kiui said mischievously, sniffling quietly. Demetria groaned.

"Please don't."

"You traumatized Scylla too." Mango said.

"I WASN'T TRAUMATIZED!" Scylla shouted from the other room. "THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TRAUMATIZED AND TERRIFIED!"

Mango rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah, well Merlina said that she's grounding you for the next month for the stunt you pulled."

"Figures." Demetria muttered. Kiui let out a throaty chuckle.

"Can I burn it this time?" Elsa the Dragon asked. Charlotte handed her the paper.

"Nothing's worth it." Sissy the Dog mumbled sadly.

"Aaaaand this is why I'm not giving you anymore stories." Creator drawled out.

"Rude." Conrad grumbled.

Sorry, I am bothering you well with Grammer.

It was a morning like every other since Luna landed on Earth. I woke up to go work out, take a shower, and ate breakfast until Luna got a call from Fury saying to come to Avengers Tower to meet them

Luna has been waiting for this day for so long and now that it's come she's so excited as she makes her way to the tower she starts to get nervous and thinks 'What if they don't like me' 'What if they think I'm weird?' Great, now I'm nervous she says to herself

She was worrying so much she didn't even realize she was at the front desk of the compound "Oh hi can I help you?" Ask the receptionist "Yes I am Luna Moon. Nick Fury called me and told me to come here. " The receptionist looks at Luna and smiles."Of course, Miss Moon Director Fury said you were coming"

After the receptionist who Luna learned her name was Susan told her that she led Luna to the meeting room and told her to wait and that everyone will be there soon when Susan left Luna sat down and her nerves began to calm down

About 5 minutes later Nick Fury walked in with the Avengers and they all stared at Luna while Luna just gave a shy smile once everyone was sitting down fury started speaking "Avengers you're probably wondering why I brought your here and who this girl is" they all nodded and looked at Luna "well this is Luna Moon and she will be your recruit I think she can say the rest" when he was done talking he looked at Luna and nodded

Luna stood up "Hi everyone as nic-i mean director Fury said am Luna and I will be your recruit so here are some things about me am not from Earth am from a planet called Galaxia and am 2500 years old" They all looked at her like she was crazy "I know you're all wondering 'how is she that old she looks like she is in her 20s' well my people the galaxies are immortal so we stop aging when were about 20," she said and the all nodded along "Am also a goddess the goddess of life and my powers are to bring people back from the dead and to control the multiverse"

After Luna finished introducing herself the Avengers started to introduce themselves and say hi then wanda says "That's so cool Luna could you show us a demonstration of your powers" "Um sure but you either have to kill someone or I can show you how I control the multiverse but controlling the multiverse is quite hard" said Luna "ok thanks I guess the first one" said wanda "ok I need a volunteer to be killed so I can bring them back" they all looked at each other unsure "I'll do it" Natasha said

"Ok Natasha who gonna kill you," Luna said until she heard a gunshot and looked at Natasha to see she shot herself in the head everyone looked surprised "ok that works too" Luna went up to Natasha's lifeless body and kneeled next to her putting her hands on her temple and leaning in but before she did " oh ya I forgot to tell you guys I have to kiss you to bring you back"

After saying that she leaned down and kissed Natasha for a few seconds as she was kissing her the gunshot in her head healed once Luna stopped kissing Natasha she gasped for breath coming back to life "What just happened" Natasha asked confused licking her lips "and who do my lips taste like mango" Luna looked at her and giggled "I can answer both of those questions" Luna said " what just happened is I just brought you back to life and your lips taste like mango because that the flavor of chapstick am using"

Natasha still looked confused "I had to kiss you to bring you back to life" Luna explains "Oh," Natasha says blushing and looking down "Am sorry if I made you uncomfortable normally when I tell people I kissed them to bring them back to the life they get happy but normally those people are also males," Luna said looking a Natasha with worry in her eyes "do females not kiss females on this planet," Luna said tilting her head with a confused face looking at Natasha

"No Luna females do kiss other females here but normally they ask," Nat said "Oh ok I'll remember that for next time," Luna said "ok anyway now that everyone knows Luna can someone show her to her room please," Nick said getting everyone's attention

"I'll do it," said Natasha "ok let's go eat," said Luna once they started walking Luna turned and looked at Nat stopping "Can I call you Natty" Natasha looked at her surprised and blushing "Um sure Luna just don't tell anybody" saying that made Luna smile and give nat a big hug not realizing were her hands landed when she gave nat a hug

It made Natasha gasp "Um Luna" "Ya natty," Luna said backing up a bit but still keeping her hands on Natasha "Your hands are on my ass," Natasha said which made Luna look where her hands were and quickly remove them as if Natasha was fire burning her skin

"Am so sorry natty" Luna said while blushing "Here you can put your hands on me" Luna said looking at Nat with worry in her eyes "No Luna you don't need to do that" Nat said making Luna confused "Really on my planet that's what we do?" Luna said while putting Nat's hands on her chest

Natasha looked at where Luna put her hands and started blushing "N-no we don't do that on earth." " Oh ok," Luna said, taking her hands off Nats Natasha, then removed her hand from Luna immediately

"Ok anyway let's go natty I wanna go to my room because am sleepy" (something I forgot to say in the introduction for Luna is she's not the smartest and is sorta a bimbo) After Luna said that Natasha quickly walked Luna to her room

Once they got there Luna invited Nat in to hang out for a bit "Didn't you say you were tired Luna" Natasha said as Luna yawned "Ya but Natty bear your voice helps me relax and I figured we could cuddle since I noticed when I hugged you that your very warm" (see total bimbo completely oblivious to the fact she's telling not to sleep with her)

Once Luna said that Natasha was a complete blushing mess and Luna didn't even realize, "ok Luna, but just till you fall asleep." "ok natty," Luna said while making room in the bed for Nat

Once Natasha layer down Luna immediately layer basically on top of her by burying her head in Natasha's chest and having their legs tangled while Natasha stayed as still as possible Luna then trident to stick her head into Natasha's breast (I cringed writing this like they just met) once she was comfy she easily started falling asleep

Natasha was very conflicted about what to do she could either stay here with a pretty girl on top of her or she could leave and go to her room she chose the first one

After a few minutes, Natasha started to feel something wet on her chest and looked down to see Luna end up sucking on her collarbone in her sleep, which made Natasha blush even harder she already

After her heart calmed down, she was able to start falling asleep, but before she did, she put her arms around Luna and brought her closer until she was eventually asleep

(Wow, that was something. I wasn't even gonna make Luna a bimbo but then I thought, why not? Plus, it will help lead the smut chapters quicker)

Hello you mrs. shorty pants iced tea drinker honey nut cheerio lefty eyebag 😌

Finally! Someone who I can agree with about iced teas. Yes, I agree it is different from how the south makes iced tea! When I visited GA in June, that's all I drank because I missed it so much. But I don't order it here unless there is fruit flavor in it like peach or mango.

Aw is she okay? Was she having a bad dream?

But yeah, it's been awhile since you posted lol maybe you'll have time later to write the valentine fic 🤞 on top of the other series hahaha 😆 I wish I get to see like how you come up with ideas or the rough draft of your fics

Ahaha if I'm not on the switch playing games, I'll be on my phone playing games 😅 but yeah, I used to play until 2 or 3 in the morning, and my ex would be mad because all she can hear is me tapping on the console and quietly grunting.

I'm not that tall, I'm between 5'6 or 5'7. Okay, you're not short..just fun sized ahahahaha and I know, short people can be so mean. It's probably cause they have such a...short temper... ahahahaha okay okay no more jokes 🤣🤣

Ech yeah I've have balut before.. at first I was excited to try it until I found out what it was. Then I still tried it just because my mom told me to.. and it was too salty for me. I didn't like it much.

And a food I've had before and never again, would be bitter gourd, or in the Philippines we call it ampalaya. It is nasty, to me at least. It really is bitter but also sour?? But I don't like it, and I remember they always made it with eggs.. I would pick the green thing off and try to eat the eggs only.

How about you?

- CuriousGeorge

Good morning u nicknames creator corn-punn righty eyebag!

Yeah, whn i used to live in CA n i went visit south states like texas or louisiana i always look more for iced teas. Becausr south's iced tea hit different to me.hahaha. n now im happy i live in one of the iced tea heaven states. 😅 lol. But i dont like fruity teas though. I drink unsweetened black iced teas.

Em was okay, she was just having growing pain because she is tall for her age.

Well, good news for u i posted pt. 4. But i hv a little confidence on it. I think i didnt write it well. I think it was poorly executed.😔 so i was a little down n questioning my writing.

Well, i hope u will still like my future works since right now i think im losing my touch in writing.😔

Wow u r pretty tall.. n oh my gosh, short people has short temper, that was really funny.🤣🤣🤣 yes please please more jokes.hahaha.

Ah yeah, balut was horrible. Im sorry. I know some people say it's philipino's delicacy but it's a no no for me.i ate it one bite n i couldnt even swallow it. It was the idea of what it is makes me cant eat it.

What is gourd? Is it like a vegetable or something?

Balut is one of the thing i tried that i wont ever eat it anymore. Another thing i tried was Monkfish liver sushi. The chef told me it was so good n it's special so i tried it. It was so gross. N the main thing i really really hate n wont eat is frog. To me just looking at frog can make me want to throw up. My mom once tricked me n told me it's chicken. Then i bit the little bone that i know it doesnt look like chicken bones. So she finally told me that it was frog. I ran to the bathroom n threw up so bad. Not gonna lie, i was so upset with her at that time.😅

So u r running out of question? Does it mean u start getting bored talking with me? 😔

Just kidding.. it's okay if u r out of curious question. U can ask me whenever u have something in mind. I dont know if i ever asked u this, how would describe ur style.of clothing?

Cheerio!
