PLAYING FAVORITES

Pairing: Dandy x reader

Relationship: romantic

Warning: no warnings surprising, are you guys shocked

Type: headcanons + drabble

It's no secret that he picks favorites

"Dandy, I appreciate the sentiment but..." you stare at the medkit in your hands, a confused look on your face as you attempt to understand just why he had given it to you. You definitely didn't need it, and you certainly had all your hearts intact. The only wound you had received during the last floor you had ventured into was a tiny scratch you had made yourself. Which had been a complete accident when you found yourself tripping over a capsule and onto the floor. "I don't need this..."

"Nonsense! Take it, free of charge! We don't want our greatest friend dying any time soon, do we?" He winked, nudging the first aid further into you. It seemed like he wasn't taking no for an answer.

"Hey, uh- I need one too." Oh god, Vee looked terrible. Normally, only one of her antennas would be bent. But, this time, it had looked like a twisted had tried to forcefully rip the other one off her head. And when that didn't work, decided to scrunch it up and tug at it until sparks came flying out of its base. The left side of her screen had been cracked, a long line running down from top to bottom with tiny strands breaking off near the edge. Just one look at her and it was almost obvious that she had lost a heart, and probably would've lost the last one had she not gotten into the elevator on time.

Dandy took one look at her, his smile never wavering as he spoke. Although, if you looked close enough, you could see the strain behind it. "Two hundred tapes."

Safe to say the others would catch onto this little trend after a while

He pretended he wasn't biased when it came to you

Acting dumb like there was no difference in the way he treated you, compared to how he treated everyone else

Sure, he would smile and wave, act nice just to keep the tapes rolling in

He was still their friend, he couldn't just be mean

But, he couldn't doubt how special you were compared to them

Day one he was practically at your beck and call, even before everything had turned to ruin

He knew things were different now, he knew you probably wouldn't let him do all the things he used to back when you didn't have to worry about the possibility of having some corrupted version of your friends tear you to pieces

But, he could still dream, couldn't he?

He couldn't help but indulge in fantasies every now and then

Letting his head rest in his hands as he watched you interact with the others

Sure, he would've preferred if your attention was on him

But, he could pretend he didn't mind sharing

Although, sometimes he wasn't so good at it

He'd miss the days when you'd let him just lay beside you

His head on your stomach as he'd pick at the floor beneath you both, mindlessly staring up at you in an almost dazed like look

The others used to tease him about it

About how well known his feelings for you were, and yet he never wanted to admit it

After all, what would happen if he did?

There were risks he had to consider when it came to telling you how he felt

And he never liked any of them

He almost preferred keeping them a secret, letting them fester inside until they were practically pouring out of every crevice in a desperate attempt to keep himself sane

Maybe you were the reason he hadn't gone crazy yet

But, if you kept your attention straying from him for a bit too long, there's a good chance he might just lose it

Make sure to talk to him every round

Say hello, tell him about the twisteds you encountered, share how you made a mistake when extracting ichor from a machine and almost run into a wall while trying to hide

Anything. Just anything.

He needs it.

It's still Friday where I am so 👀👀 for FFWF, who are some authors that inspire you? Are there any you consider to be good teachers, or have styles that you admire and try to emulate? What is it that you like about them?

I try to emulate Emily Henry so much I'm worried it's legally actionable. Which is crazy because I have hated every other contemporary romance book I have tried to read in the last five years. I actually own all her books despite having very few books in the house (I read a lot but it's from the library). I like the way she plays with common romance tropes but still indulges in them. I like her characters and the way they feel inside when they're in love. Sometimes when I'm stuck I'll just open one of her books to a random section and read a little and something in my brain will shake loose.

@rowanisawriter got me to read Sally Rooney and I don't remember the last time a writer imprinted on my brain and sense of style so quickly. You'd think that wouldn't work with romance but she makes me think a lot about how to describe what's happening inside of my characters and how they're perceiving the people around them.

I really liked Brandon Sanderson after the Mistborn trilogy but I haven't loved any of his other works yet so the jury is still out. Jon Krakauer is a non-fiction writer but I've read almost all of his books ("Into Thin Air" is my favorite).

"Bird by Bird" by Anne Lamott was the most helpful book about the art of writing that I've read so far. "On Writing" by Stephen King is my next "book about how to write" that I want to read.

I have a genuine question. correct me if I'm wrong but... if Izuku wants to stay a teacher, he has to work 5 days of the week from 8 am to 4 pm. And he's extremely exhausted after school... So the only time he has for the hero work is the weekends? Also there are so many other stuff like training camp, hero license exam,... it would take too much of his time.... So he has this billion dollar suit funded by his friends with hatsume and Melissa's time and hard work for 8 years.... Just to only use it for the weekends?

Because at the end of 430 it was implied as a really big deal but now it's just "oh I would only do hero works at the weekends but thanks for the billion dollar suit, it's great." if that's the case they should have given it to someone who works on a daily basis then? 😭

open to mutuals | she's a lil rascal ♡

" oh, i'm trouble? " her laughing eyes crinkle at the edges, and chiyo leans forward to prop her chin upon her palm. the smell of fresh coffee wafts from her cup, warming the artist from the inside; quiet, relaxed music lazily drifts in the background, creating an atmosphere that nearly has her eyes falling shut. it feels perfect. this morning feels perfect with them.

" y'gotta elaborate on that, " she presses and curls her free hand around her mug to bring it to her lips. " i've been an angel this morning. "

Gotta say, telling people about my issues helps put things into perspective and make me more sane about things

but good luck getting enough trust out of me to talk about anything
