Arakawa family brain rot: I just had the saddest thought about Masato returning from America, but from Masumi's perspective. He's prolly excited to see his son again despite the relationship tension. He's heard Masato has been doing great. His attitude has improved with his health. Maybe things will get better if he tries hard enough.
Maybe there's a chance to fix things.
And there isn't. Masato's just as vindictive and mean and manipulative as he ever was. And Arakawa finally has to mourn the son he never had. The son he told the world had died.
Do you think he ever regretted letting Masato get away with murder? Regretted that it wasn't Ichiban he still had in his life? I have a hard time with this because he loves Masato so much. I just wish he'd had the son who loved him out in the world with him y'know.
But we all know Masato ain't built for prison.
And I can't imagine like... Seeing Jo. Being relieved to see him again but immediately losing confidence because Jo looks so much more *tired* than he did. Ever together and composed but not really His Jo anymore. Not in the same way. It is never the same after he was gone so long.
I'm sure there are moments or even days where they fall into old patterns but I can't help but feel like (if Jo did in fact go to America w Masato) that that would be a defining shift in the relationship between Jo and Masumi.
Idk what this is really about but I got in my Arakawa feelings (I think be instared too long at the picture you posted). 🫰 Thanks for listening to me ramble byyyye~
EVERY DAY of my life i think of arakawa wondering if what they did regarding masato was 'the right choice'- like OF COURSE it was masato literally wouldnt have made it yet if it was the right choice why does it feel like such the wrong choice yeah...
#snap chats#im gonna throw up saying this but like i vaaaaaggguely tickled that topic in the recent fic i posted#not too much but. definitely alluded to the fact ive thought about it.. and have thought bout arakawa thinkin about it..#god Thrwing Up tho because the beginning f the ask is reminding me of a fic i wrote where masato and jo come back#it doesnt focus on masato for too long but it does follow the vibe of 'arakawa wants to reconnect with masato but Nothings Changed'#so funny that this Forbidden Fic also just follows arakawa reonnecting with sawashiro.. it at least had a happier endin tho oops..#i think initially seeing sawashiro again could be good for arakawa.. things would prob be fine..#but with masato- or aoki- back in japan and him Doing His Thing he's definitely going to call for sawashiro more#meaning sawashiro and arakawa are going to be around each other less and less#yk its what arakawa wants tho- for aoki to be given top priority cause thats his son innit#but of course that also means sawashiro doesnt have much time to hang around..#i realy want them to have a fight about aoki Custody Battle Momence Right but i cant imagine either of them yelling at each other#i cant even really imagine arakawa raising his voice either... at most he just talks very sternly when he's mad i think#GOD it feels weird typnig all this again cause i have typed all this type of thinking in fics lately jAJLKEJVLEKJVW#POINT IS big agree. have thoought extensively regarding these situations#and that reminds me i shoudl... finish taht other fic i started... that i shared with you...#they can have a . nice moment i t hink :) //screams//

trying to get back at it
#cant let art college stop me from making art#and college (this one) isnt even hard its just tiring and emotionally demanding#but i think i let my hopes that it could teach me something important keep me from learning on my own#so now im kinda pushing it to the end without giving it real thought or importance#which is making things harder but less tiring emotionally#its sad to give up college (and still finish it anyway)#does it even count as giving up?#i dont know#anyway#i wasnt going to post this i didnt realy like the piece#i should have pushed the values a little more give mote contrast between the shadows and lights#i know that i just dont think this piece is worth fixing? (but it is since fixing it would be studying what went 'wrong')#i only made this one because i was trying to make some fanart but got stuck in the sketching#i want to do more fanart#is a important part of peoples experience with art and i missed it with the whole 'everything you make must be original' and i feel i might#be happier with doing art if i do it for the love of things#and i do enjoy making art for other people#its the main reason i like art fight#im a little sad i cant join in this year#'too busy?' no. too weak#i havent been making art lately just college work even in this process of letting go of it#if i join i know that his time i cant make any art#what if someone attacks me and i cant attack back? it would feel unfair#i dont feel bad when people dont attack me back i feel bad when i cant attack people back#my standarts for myself#anyway 2.0#art#my art#not for my sideblog

Let's talk about it
Tumblr media
Realy?
"I’d planted images in his head of my brutalized body, the markings consistent with what Dagdan and Brannagh had already revealed to be their style. He’d describe them in detail—describe how he helped me get away before it was too late. How I ran for my life when Tamlin and Ianthe refused to intervene, to risk their alliance with Hybern. And when the sentry revealed the truth, no longer able to stomach keeping quiet when he saw how my sorry fate was concealed by Tamlin and Ianthe, just as Tamlin had sided with Ianthe the day he’d flogged that sentry …"
"For Hybern was coming—already here. I had debated it for weeks: whether it was better to claim the Spring Court for ourselves, or to let it fall to our enemies.
 It would have been easy to call in Rhys and Cassian, to have the latter bring in an Illyrian legion to claim the territory when it was weakest after my own maneuverings. Depending on how much mobility Cassian had retained—if he was still healing."
"But more than that, I had a people who had lost faith in their High Priestess. I had sentries who were beginning to rebel against their High Lord. And as a result of those things, I had Hybern royals doubting the strength of their allies here. I’d primed this court to fall. Not from outside forces—but its own internal warring."
I swallowed. “Has Hybern sacked the Spring Court?”
“Not yet. Whatever you did … it worked."
Feyre didn't show anyone the "truth about Tamlin." She lied. She altered people's memories. She's the villain in this story. Stop making excuses for her.

Nine people I'd like to get to know better
WOOPS I did not have time to do this for the past like, week but I've been wanting to bc I love silly little memes like this. Tytyty @ithillia for the tag :3
Last song: All Our Bruised Bodies And The Whole Heart Shrinks by La Dispute (It makes me think about Fives and it hurts so fucking much) 
Favorite colour: GREEN!! and also blue 
Last movie/TV Show: TCW of course, I had a Bad Autism Time™️ and my gf put on the fucking Umbara Arc to calm me down. It worked like a charm what the fuck is wrong w me lmfaooo.

Current obsession: clonesclonesclonesclones forever. I haven't had a special interest/hyperfixation this deep since I was like 12-14 so like this is one of the most important things in my life tbh. Specifically like thinking about how their culture would work, and their solidarity, internal conflicts, shared trauma and how that would relate to those things. Their ideas about personal and cultural identity and how that would vary individually. Things like how their upbringing must have felt, how that affected them and who they became later in life, the things they're taught vs what they truly come to believe once they're out on the field, the psychological effects of O66 on the clones who survived and the devastating impact it must have had- Bro stop me or I'll keep going forever like. I'm in deep and tbh? I wouldn't change it for the world.

Hey, I’ve been debating whether to reach out, but after seeing she won't say anything , I felt like I needed to. They’re honestly way too nice to bring this up but I feel like someone should say it.
Your writing has been heavily resembling @/ylangelegy lately. I mean I’ve been following both of you for a while and the shift is noticeable. I don’t know if it’s intentional or not, but it’s really frustrating to see because she has such a unique voice and now it’s like it’s being absorbed into other people’s work without acknowledgment. I’m saying this because I assume you wouldn’t want people thinking you’re copying someone else, right? Maybe it’s just subconscious but I realy think you should take a step back and ask yourself why these similarities are so strong It’s not a good look and I'm sorry if it was hurtful but this is what I noticed:(
hello anon how r u?
well, tbh if u hadn’t mentioned this author, i wouldn’t even have known who u were talking about bc i never saw their work on my timeline before (with all due respect to them, of course, its jus bc im not that active here anymore) i’ve been off for days, so i haven’t had time to keep up with anything, let alone "absorb" someone elses style. that said, i checked out their blog, and their work is really good.
but let’s be real, our styles are clearly different. at the end of the day, we’re writing about the same group, the same members, sometimes even the same tropes. similarities are bound to happen, that’s just how fandom spaces work.
and if you’re that pressed about it, maybe take a step back and ask yourself why it bothers you so much. seems like a lot of effort to police writing when there’s enough space for everyone here. hope that helps

Plot Templates for Dark Fiction
MC hears about danger and mocks it as unreal, and ses out to prove that it's not real. He enlists the helps of a loyal but reluctant friend/servant/colleague/lover. -> Things get stranger and they fall into real danger -> MC fights the threat, narrowly getting away with his life. -> The danger gets even worse -> The threat is defeated, and the friend often pays a terrible price.
A danger threats the MC's community and he is the only one who can defeat it -> First Failure -> Second Failure -> She learns something important, and wins.
MC wants to belong to a community (secret society, gang, etc.) -> He works to convince the others that he is worthy of being a member -> He is granted initiation -> He works harder to be taken into the Inner Circle -> He realizes that the community is evil -> Will he go ahead or back out? (A) End with the realization (B) His conscience wins and he sacrifices himself (C) He decides to go ahead, enjoying the evil.
He devotes himself to fighting the evil -> She makes sacrifices for the good -> She realizes that what she has fought for is actually evil, and the people around her were right.
An innocent MC observes the actions of others -> The reader picks up on the subtext that there's something evil while the MC goes around, naive.
MC is urged by a friend not to pursue a dangerous venture -> The venture turns out to be harder than it seemed -> He barely escapes from the danger and seeks help -> Help does not arrive and the MC fights against the menace -> the friend/traitor falls into their own trap they've laid for the MC
Newly dead MC wakes undead as a ghost/zombie/vampire -> He has unfinished business to conclude and sets out for his mission -> He meets unexpected obstacles in the world of the undead -> He realizes something new and forfeits the initial mission
MC is obsessed hunting a monster/evil creature -> He nearly dies but prevails -> He takes a trophy home but realizes that the monster had got to his family first -> His triumph becomes meaningless
MC believes that an evil creature/monster is actually innocent -> She sets out to win its trust and tames it -> She succeeds and lets her guard down -> The monster attacks her
MC wants to overcome a personal fear -> He succeeds after many attempts -> He realizes that in this instance he should have listened to his instincts - he has become an easy victim
MC is a semi-sympathetic character whom the reader can understand, but not quite like -> He obsessively plots to get the justice/love he thinks he deserves -> He realies he has falledn into his won trap/walked into a rival's similar trap -> He tries desperately to escape -> MC dies knowing that he obsessions have brought his own demise.
MC is a righteous character -> She lands in a situation with only two options, which are immoral.
MC plots to bring the downfall of another character -> He is betrayed by his most trusted friend
MC schemes to trap another person -> She realizes too late that she has been outsmarted/fallen into her own trap
These are some common plot progressions, so feel free to explore with other types!

Better together Pt.2
authors note: y/n = your name// not proof read// GIF not mine // Have fun <3
read: part 1 here
pairing: kagami taiga x tetsuya kuroko + reader x akashi seijuro
summary: Your best friends are daiting now. So whos the next target of the matchmaking skills of the team? Well, its you...
genre: romance, hurt/comfort, angst
word count: 2.5k
Tumblr media
Before you read this story, read part 1 for the full experience.
You and Akashi were enjoying the view — figuratively and literally. Kagami and Kuroko sat on the Seirin rooftop, legs dangling off the edge, faces closer than they needed to be as Kuroko handed over a milkshake. Their fingers brushed. Kagami blushed. Kuroko smiled softly. Cuddeling together and totally in love.
You nudged Akashi with your elbow. “We created that.” Akashi, standing beside you with perfect posture and a slightly smug smile, nodded. “Indeed. I believe we deserve full credit. Perhaps a plaque.”
You laughed. “Or at least an MVP award for ‘Most Likely to Meddle with Intentions of Romance.’”
He glanced sideways at you, his crimson eyes gleaming with amusement. “I prefer the term strategic interpersonal architect.”
You rolled your eyes playfully. “Its still meddling.”
“Still effective,” he teased, proofing his point. He laughed so rarely. But when he did it, it was so beautiful. His eyes shone like a ruby ​​in the sun, rich in shades of red. While the sunlight conjured up small points of light in the color potpourie. If Taiga had known that you meant Akashi by your crush, he probably would have brought you up. You had only given him a vague outline and he was bursting with curiosity.
For a while, you stood in comfortable silence, watching the wind ruffle Kuroko’s hair as Kagami leaned a little closer to him, clearly trying not to be obvious. You smiled, warmth blooming in your chest — but not just from their happiness. You turned to Akashi. “They really bring out the best in each other.” He nodded thoughtfully. “Much like some other people.”
You tilted your head, laughing softly. “Ah are you talking about Takao and Midorima?”
He tried to make a hint, without success. You were so oblivious. He found it so adorable, so Akashi didn’t answer. Not directly. Instead, he looked at you — really looked. And something in his expression shifted. Something that wasn’t just satisfaction over a job well done.
___ _ _ _Meanwhile…
In the locker room, Kagami rubbed the back of his neck as he looked at Kuroko, who was tying his shoes. “Hey… have you noticed something about Akashi and Y/N lately?”
Kuroko blinked up at him. “You mean how they act like they’re not already dating even though they’re clearly flirting all the time?”
“Exactly!” Kagami exclaimed. “They’re worse than we were...I think”
Aomine leaned around the corner. “You guys were painfully obvious. But yeah. Akashi and Y/N? That’s a power couple in denial. They are just so happy about "their" victory...such smart people..yet so dumb.”
Kise clapped his hands together dramatically, walking in on the scene. “Ooooh, should we start Operation: Make the Matchmakers Fall in Love?”
Midorima adjusted his glasses, looking utterly done. “They already are. They just need to admit it. As simple as that”
"Since when are you Dr.Love?" Kise snapped back. A heated discussion broke out that deviated super fast from the actual topic.It was discussed whether Midorima had the right to give advice on such matters and mutual criticism became widespread.
___ _ _ _Later That Night
You and Akashi found yourselves walking through the quiet streets after the little celebration party, Kagami hosted at his apartment. The air was cooler, crisp with the kind of tension that wasn’t uncomfortable — just waiting.
“You know,” you said, looking up at the stars, “I think we were too good at this.”
“Possibly,” Akashi said smoothly. “We may have unintentionally created expectations.”
You raised an eyebrow. “Expectations? What do you mean by that?”
He stopped walking. You turned, surprised, and realized he was watching you again with that same unreadable, intense look.
“Y/N,” he said calmly, “I find myself growing increasingly… invested in you.”
Your breath caught. He took a step closer, tone low, controlled, but warm beneath the surface, "Finally someone says it...I also think that our friendship has become even closer since the Kurogumi project."
Akashi didn't expect that. he had actually wanted to say something else. he wanted to say this: You’re brilliant. You’re bold. You challenge me. And it’s very possible I’ve been falling for you this entire time.
"Yeah, I thought so too," he said calmly, with a hint of disappointment.
You blinked. What was wrong? Did you say something bad?
This was how you parted. The rural journey home felt bad. What had just happened? You had a bad feeling. You didn't like it when there was something between you. You were finally feeling so good. He was often around you and you had just lost all of that. At least that's how it felt.
___ _ _ _
The final buzzer rang. The court was alive with celebration. The generation of miracles had just won a high-stakes match against Nash jr and his crew — a long-awaited match that had every heart pounding and every bench gripped. But now...you were in the middle of the court, laughing with Kuroko and Kagami, slapping hands, glowing with pride. Happy for their victory.
And Akashi?
He was watching you. Again.
He had spent weeks now trying subtle gestures — standing closer, offering you tea instead of his usual silence, brushing your hand as he passed you strategy notes. Once, he even complimented your smile, and you had replied:“Aw, thanks! I needed that right now. Today was such a crappy day. You’re such a good friend, Akashi!”
Friend. Friend. He was done. It was enough!
As the team gathered to shake hands and wind down, you approached him, eyes bright. “Sei...that pass...Insane! Seriously, how do you even see the court like that? Your brain must run at chess-master speed.”
Akashi gave you a look that could only be described as strained royalty trying not to explode. You blinked, oblivious. “Are you okay?”
Silence. Then he turned—gracefully, of course—and addressed the entire group. “Kagami. Kuroko. Kise. Aomine. Everyone. Be quiet for a moment,” he said, voice sharp like a blade sheathed in velvet. They froze instantly. Akashi’s emperor mode was active.
You stood there, stunned.
“Y/N,” he said, eyes locked on you, his voice slightly mad. “We need to address something. Right now.”
Your heart dropped. Oh no. Was he upset? Did you mess something up again? Did you say something rude? Was he still mad because of last time??
“I—what did I do?,” you stammered.
“You,” he said, walking closer, calm and precise, “are infuriatingly unaware, oblivious even, of every attempt I’ve made to express romantic interest in you. I have complimented you. I have lingered. I have offered you my tea. I even said I liked your laugh.”
You blinked.,“Uhm....I thought you were just....being polite?”
Aomine let out a choking sound. How stupid were you??? By now everyone could see the captains favourite, were you.
“Polite?!” Akashi repeated, incredulous, enraged now. “I have never been polite. I am Akashi Seijuro. When I like someone, I make it very clear — unless, apparently, that someone is you.”
Kise turned in from the side,“ Uhm is this a confession Aka-cchi? Because right now it feels like you are mad at her.”
Akashi ignored him, “I have flirted, waited, and even involved myself in helping you meddle in others’ love lives while suffering in silence. But no more.”
He stood tall, red eyes burning, “I am in love with you, Y/N. If I must declare it publicly for you to understand, then so be it.”
Silence fell like a bomb.
You stared, mouth slightly open,“I—what? You… love....love me?”
Akashi exhaled, finally letting his shoulders relax. “Yes. I assumed it was obvious. But clearly, I was wrong.”
A beat. Then your face burned red as the realization hit you like one of Midorimas three-pointers to the forehead.
“Oh my God,” you said softly. “You were flirting.”
“Yes,” he said, annoyed.
“All those times,” your eyes only grew bigger and bigger, as all those memories washed over you, realizing. You felt sick, turned white like a wall.
“Yes.”
“…the tea?,” you asked, almost whispering.
“Especially the tea,” he said
You looked at him, mortified and touched and suddenly very aware of how close he was standing,“…Then I guess I’m an idiot.”
He took a step closer, a ghost of a smirk tugging at his lips now. “Only if you still plan on rejecting me.”
“I don’t,” you said quickly.
The smirk deepened. You grabbed his collar. He didn’t flinch. And then you kissed him. Right there. In front of the entire team. It was bold, warm, a little clumsy with adrenaline — but hot. Your hands wandered from the grip on his shirt, into his hair, his steady grip at your waist pulling you flush against his body as the team collectively lost their minds behind you.
“OH MY GOD—”
“THEY’RE ACTUALLY—”
“KISE, STOP FILMING—”
“Too late,” Kise squeaked and grinned.
You pulled away breathless, forehead pressed to Akashi’s. “You’re intense,” you whispered. He smiled, eyes dark with victory. “You’re worth it.”
___ _ _ _
GOM GroupChat
Kise: Akashi-sama literally made a public declaration like a king claiming his queen.
Kuroko: They are the new power couple.
Kagami: I’m scared. But also kinda impressed.
Aomine: Told you he was gonna snap eventually. You don't keep an emperor waiting…
You: …I accept my obliviousness, okay? Stop teasing me about it q-q

genderqueerdykes · 8 months ago
Note
I stumbled across someone who calls themself 'gender critical', a 'hater of all things male', AND a 'transguy butchdyke'.
we've finally done it, everyone. a gender crit who is the very thing their peers despise: someone who's transmasc. I'm starting to think people are this stupid on purpose
this happens soooooooooooo often it's really painful. i'll try to explain, i do agree with you that it's just willful stupidity in the sense that they're riding the high of being a jackass. like inside of troll communities like this all they really do is ride the high of pissing people off. also, unfortunately, a lot of these people are extremely vulnerable and deal with very low self esteem and use these kinds of violent, angry, exclusive communities as a way to self soothe and it never works out. its an echo chamber and they stay miserable and all that's left to do is ride the adrenaline rush you get from pissing someone off
generally what happens in this case can be one of a few things. the first is that they tend to be trans mascs or men who watch fucked up trans creators on YouTube like Kalvin Garrah or Buck Angel who tell them that non binary people aren't trans and that trans men can never be feminine ever. but then they also interact with rad fems and get suckered in because the rad fem community tolerates butch transmasc people to an extent in order to increase their numbers. they don't really care all that much if you're transmasc as long as you're suckering other people into their cult, they're happy as can be.
unfortunately this also stems from people who detransitioned and felt completely disenfranchised from their trans identity and time spent as being trans so they take it out on other trans people. they didn't end up being trans and they're pissed off because trans people "tricked" them into doing it too. usually what it is is that person is either genuinely curious or has low self esteem and does something because someone they look up to does, only to find out its not for them, so they take it out on the group they didn't fit into instead of moving along. it just realy sucks because there's nothing wrong with detransitioning at all whatsoever, but its the people who become bitter and jaded from their experiences and take it out on other trans people that really need to sort their shit out.
anyone who's proud to be a man hater is a rad fem there's no other reason to be like that. and it's just weird as hell when i see rad fems trying to "reclaim" certain genderqueer lesbian terms when they don't even fit into those categories to begin with. if you hate and reject manhood how are you a man? suffering is not righteous, you will not gain anything by allowing yourself to suffer for someone else. if you hate manhood and are a man: that means you hate yourself. that is your cross to bear. you need to sort that out with yourself, not take it out on other people.
it's just dumb. i agree with you it's some sort of willful stupidity in order to troll and fuck with people. they get a kick out of it because it pisses people off. that's really all it is. they think they're counterculture, but they're edgelords. they're not making any bold statements by using terms that are heavily used by trans people (including detrans btw) and then somehow saying its now a rad fem or gender crit thing. you're doing that for shock value.
i stopped seeing that kind of behavior lately fortunately but it's all over this website. there are so many people on here who have just completely willingly walked right into rad feminism and brag about it. like they're somehow these cool punks who don't follow the rules. like they're somehow making a statement, like they're somehow breaking societal norms in a productive way. theres literally 0 critical thinking involved in rad feminism. all they do is actively oppress women and trans people, how is that "counter culture"? that's fascism. you're just a jackass fucking around with words on the internet to piss people off. that's just troll behavior. nobody cares, we have shit to do off of our phones and computers

Pleasure & Poison
Summary: The night before Rook impulsively takes on a dozen Antaam in order to save captured slaves, she's working on a contract at a banquet. Rook succesfully kills her target but is wounded with a poisoned blade. Viago rescues her, tends to her wounds, and one thing leads to another.
Tags/warnings: Slightly gory descriptions of wounds, near death, smut (but realy not too descriptive, I like to write it more vague and poetic), hints of love triangle drama.
Pairing: Viago de Riva x femme elf Crow! Rook (My OC Lucrezia de Riva / she's his protegé they are not related/)
Lucrezia fell back clutching at her chest. The poisonous blade had lacerated her several times and the venom had allready began rushing to her heart. Its wielder, a corrupted Merchant Prince that she had made damn sure to kill moments ago.
But now the music of the banquet had stilled and she was alone, and she was dying. Well, at least she had finished her contract.
"Fenhedis" she choked, regretting her own carelessness. If only she had not gotten too close, something her talon, Viago had lectured her on countless of times. She was afterall a mage and no warrior. Despite her spellblade, she had always been instructed to use it as a last way out and to finish her targets at range.
But Lucrezia liked getting close, it had afterall been such a great part of her reputation as an assasin. There was a saying in Treviso that there was no party, untill the Vampire had shown up (a mythic nickname earned during her bloodied fledgling days, after defending herself from a rival with her bare teeth). And this had been quite the party.
Just as her vision began faltering, she heard the sound of someone storming into the chamber.
"Lucrezia!" Viago yelled, pulling her limp body up into his arms. She looked up at him weakly. He had come for her again, her bastard Prince.
He stroked away the flaming curls stuck to the pearls of sweat on her forehead, assesing the situation as quickly as he could. Fifth Talon Viago de Riva, who had once taken her under his wing. Viago, who had mercilessly trained her untill the day she had become a fully fledged crow. A day that had finally arrived a mere year earlier. Ever since then, she had strived for his praise and approval, for her place in the House of de Riva.
"Viago. I'm sorry" Lucrezia whispered, barely coherently.
"No. You're not." Truth to be told, she rarely ever was.
"I forgot to take it again." Lucrezia nearly slipped out of his grasp, and Viago struggled to not slide on the blood soaked floor. She had once again forgotten the daily vial of diluted poison he had given her every day since she became his fledgling.
"You idiot." he spat through gritted teeth, desperately searching amongst his vials for the correct one. Lucrezia's eyes began rolling back into her head, her lips turning blue. She was fading, and there were so little time left.
Viago ripped the front of her dress open, it was an expensive one she had borrowed from Teia for the banquet her target attended.
He doused her wound in antidote, then opened another vial and forcefully poured it down her throat. It burned and she coughed weakly while he prayed to Andraste he was not too late. He kept patting her sickly pale face, desperately trying to make her stay with him.
"Ten years of training, don't let it all go to waste. I'll kill you if you die, you hear me. Luca. Even if I have to enter the fade and drag you out of deaths grip myself."
A small smirk appeared on Lucrezia's lips, that slowly returned to its former blush. Without thinking he pulled her further into his arms, embracing her tightly in divine gratitude. Feeling her heart beating against his own could have brought him to tears if it weren't for how angry he was.
"Viago." She whispered, "I didn't know you cared this much."
"Shut up. I don't." He hissed curtly, and she could not see it but he was smiling with relief too.
He got up and carried her back, all across Trevisan rooftops and alleys untill he reached his mansion. The house of de Riva.
There he tended to her wounds in his office; where she laid in silence upon a loveseat, patiently watching him stich her up without ever tearing a grimace. Barechested and exposed, Viago did not even seem to register how vulnerable she was.
"First scars ive ever gotten from a contract" she mused, "I hope it heals well, I won't be able to blend in much if i'm disfigured."
Viago's eyes never trailed away from the stiches, "It is a Crows milestone. Makes a contract more memorable."
Lucrezia blinked away the tears, sucessfully supressing them. "-Besides, it would not lessen your beauty."
She almost thought she had misheard him for a moment, perhaps her head was still woozy from the poisons close call. His eyes twinkled, Viago was a true artisan with the thread and needle.
"Do you have any memorable scars?" She asked, gazing at him and realizing for the first time that she had never seen his hands without gloves. Viago was always covered in his crow leathers, capes, poisoners belts and the likes. An arsenal of knives and poisons, always at the ready.
His eyes met her own sternly, he did not wish to answer. His will hardly buckled, seemingly. Untill he met her gaze.
"Please?"
Viago sighed and unbuttoned the top of his shirt, reluctantly revealing an old stab wound with a rather mortal placement. "Scars are memorable, because it means you can never make the same mistake again." He lectured her.
Her hand reached out tenderly to touch the purple socket of skin, after a moment she observed correctly "You let someone too close."
Viago's gloved hands moved back swiftly to cover it again but lingered for just a moment at the collar of his shirt. It was true, even now he struggled to let anyone have him as vulnerable. Not even Teia. Lucrezia's hand remained at his chest, tracing the scars texture softly. His gloves had always stayed on during any acts of lovemaking, more often than enough he kept himself as dressed as possible too. Having his tools at easy access, always ready for any attack, backstabbing or otherwise.
He noticed how her rosy cheeks had returned, she was allright. He had saved her. He could let himself relax again.
"Viago?" Her voice called him back again from wherever his mind had wandered. His focus returned to the stiches, he turned to a frown.
"You should not look at your Talon like that." He stated, warning her.
"Forgive me. It must have been the poison, I feel.. dazed." Lucrezia lied, it had not affected any sense of clarity at all. The relief they both felt had simply provided oppurtunity to act on what was previously unacted on.
The way he had always favored her, protected her, while berating himself for his weakness. This loving affliction, that made him so ferociously protective of his former fledgling. So much that, after she had gotten involved with Illario Dellamorte, he had jepordised his houses relationship with the first Talon by threatening her grandson. Teia knew too, she had called him out on it multiple times during their times together.
Viago placed the final stitch meticulously, and retrieved his tools to their assigned places.
"But what is your execuse Viago? No poison has afflicted your senses tonight, has it?" Lucrezia suddenly asked, just after he had believed he could put the matter, his desire, to rest.
"You are poison, Luca." He replied, throwing her a shirt disdainfully without looking back.
"Then what is the antidote? Or would you rather have me diluted as well?" She asked as she sat up, wondering if he would realy leave.
He gritted his teeth in response,
"Once every morning and night, perhaps?", she teased suggestively.
Just as Teia had snidefully remarked, he would continously micro dose his infatuation with his former apprentice. He would think about her during his relations with Andarateia, he would watch over her, make sure she stayed out of trouble even though she was no fledgling anymore. Always sticking his head out to protect her against their fellow crows, rivals and enemies.
Lucrezia knew she had struck a nerve this time, as he stood still in the middle of the room watching her without opening his mouth to berate her. She had him twirled right around her finger tips, but this time she was taking it too far.
"-Vi" she managed to breathlesly whisper before he stormed towards her, his lips crashing hungrily around her own. With great haste and without any of his usual self controll. Desperate and forbidden, he had failed to learn from his mistakes afterall. He was getting too close.
Lucrezia's hands searched for his as she pulled his entire being towards her. She slid a finger under his tight leather gloves, which made him hesitate. But only for a moment. She slid the glove of his wrist, then the other, and she gazed at his scars when their lips parted. Then brought his hand to the side of her face.
"Luca." He called her endearingly, before kissing her again. "This is... dangerous."
She laughed, it only weakened him further.
'Well, you did always call me reckless." Lucrezia whispered in between starved kisses, they had strayed far beyond the point of no return now.
"What are you afraid of? People seeing?" She asked,
"Stop talking."
The shirt he had previously thrown at her had mysteriously disappeared, and the ruined dress had been hitched up her waist to give him room and acess.
He felt her bareskinned, trembling against the palm of his bared hand. Skin soft, warm. Flesh to flesh, alive and not dead.
He sank into a pool of warmth, closing his eyes as he recited the chant of light in his head - praying that this indulgence would not jepordize her safety. She was the sole thing he cared more about than furthering himself. Even more than claiming his birthright, his throne.
Lucrezia wrapped her legs around him, then her arms. She felt like a venemous spider spinning her prey in her web. Then he took her, letting all his fears and frustration spill out along soft cries and kisses.
Afterwards, she laid in his arms as he laid there stunned. She had never seen him so relaxed before, so vulnerable. His knives were far away, thrown amongst his clothes.
When she discretly reached for her own he pulled her straight back into his arms, refusing to let her go yet.
"Viago? This is...."
"Shhh. Don't ruin it."
"What about Teia?"
"Teia is free to live as she wishes, and so am I."
He pressed himself closer to her, and she could feel his warmth radiating still against her back.
"I'm serious. We can't do this, can we?"
"We have allready gone too far. " Viago answered calmly, "We might as well enjoy it while it lasts."
He took in the scent of her red hair, closed his eyes and burrowed his aching head amongst her curls. His Lucrezia.
"You take your pleasures like you take your poisons, huh?"
"Sparingly." Viago whispered defeatedly. Just as he had taught her.
After a while, once Viago had slipped into sleep, Lucrezia slipped out of his arms unoticed. "My Luca." He mumbled asleep, "My little rook".

Hello !❀˖°
Before I start I would like to apologize for any spelling mistakes or wrong grammar, english is not my native language, thanks !
This is technically my 7th post on Tumblr, but I havent posted in.. a good while. I doubt anyone even remembers, but I posted some imagines and headcanons, that I now have privated.
I privated them all mostly becuase I`m honestly not into writing like that anymore and it also feels pretty wierd to me now(ㅠ﹏ㅠ) NO HATE THOUGH ! I respect fan written stuff so much, and I used to love it so much, but I think i might have just outgrown it? I turned 19 this year and A LOT has changed in my life the last few years.
But more about why I`m making THIS post ! •ᴗ•
For some reason blogging has been so appealing to me lately, and its gonna make me work more on my english again ! I used to love writing and my english was honestly pretty good, but after I stopped writing it went so downhill to be honest ·‿· yay. So I will start blogging ! Wether people tune in or not is honestly not that important to me, Im just doing this for myself, but if you decide to follow along, you`re very welcome ! ♡⸜(ˆᗜˆ˵ )⸝♡
Right now Im realy unsure if Im going to do a sort of introduction right now, or if I`m going to make it a whole seperate post?
I do want to be real and honest here though, but I dont want to share too much about myself, mostly for privacy reasons and becuase the internet is a scary place ˙◠˙ But I`ll still be me ! ( ◡̀_◡́)ᕤ
I think I`ll just have a little introduction right now and if anyone reads this has questions they can ask :> yuuuuuhhhh
First of, I go by dexiiexox, but more simply its just dexie or dex, whatever floats your boatദ്ദി( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I am 19, as I previously stated, turned 19 this year
I am female and go by she/her
I love South Park (I`m obsessed actuallyദ്ദി ≽^⎚˕⎚^≼ .ᐟ)
I enjoy a lot of shows/movies, but some I used to love a lot more a few years ago. Like Wayne, which is actually the reason I joined Tumblr.... ( °ヮ° ) SIDE STORY↴
I somehow found the show WAYNE, dont remember how or when, but after watching it I was looking into headcanons or imagines about it on google and found a post on Tumblr, I had never used or heard of it before, but I made an account and I was mindblown seeing this platform and it became my go to app for so long.
I was SUCH a Potterhead like.. 3 years ago I`d say. Looking back... I hate it, but at the same time I enjoyed it so much back then and I would just dream about it all day long, wishing it was all real. It was really my escape from reality.
I also fell into the TMR fandom (The Maze Runner). It also became a comfort show to me, but that faze didnt last very long. Still love the movies though, same for Harry Potter.
I just really like watching stuff and I honestly need to have something running in the background when doing legit anything(ㅠ﹏ㅠ) Like right now... I have some youtube video about South Park characters in the background while I write...
I really enjoy drawing and thats also something Im working on ! Like writing, I used to draw and paint a lot when I was younger, but I stopped that as well for some reason. So last year I bought a sketchbook to work oon finding my own art style and expressing my feelings through "art" ( ᵔ ᴗ ᵔ ) And Im really enjoying it right now !
I added only 3 photos, but one is a pink jellyfish and the 2 other are drawings of Stan and Kyle from South Park•ᴗ• The Stan and Kyle drawings looked better before I decided to outline them (legit regretting it so much) I found the shittiest pen ever becuase I coulndt find one with a small tip :,) I`m still trying to figure out my art style so please dont hate.. 𓁹‿𓁹 HEH.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I do enjoy fashion, but I wouldnt say my style is that great, especially on the daily. That is mostly becuase I currently work in a kindergarten and I dont want to wear clothes is actually care about at work, so I end up in just sweats and some old sweater (ㅠ﹏ㅠ)
I honestly dont really hang out with friends a whole lot anymore, but Im trying to do more with them now that spring is on its way ! Like this weekend, Ive asked some friends to go grilling and I`m really excited !(∩˃o˂∩)♡ YIPPIEEEEE !
All in all this blogg is just gonna be my own little space to let our feelings, work on my english and document things in my life !
I think this is long enough for now ! If you read all of this youre an actuall warriorᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ And thank you soooo much for reading !! hihihiᓚ₍ ^. .^₎
untill next time !

Hello could you please write a USM ben reilly x reader headcanon I realy like your other one
Of course! Was just thinking about him again today..
USM Ben Reilly x Reader Headcanons!
Established relationship (Bc writing meetings can be Hard™), starts before he's outed as a spy
---
Super protective of you as his partner
He knows that you could be used against him by either side, so tries to keep you close and under wraps
A hard combo, but he's not a very openly emotional guy
Not at the start, at least
Takes a lil bit for him to warm up to any kind of touch
Starts slow
Hand holding
Using you as an armrest
Ruffling your hair
Eventually he's a little more open, both emotionally and to touch
Gets better at saying "I love you"
Gives forehead kisses so he doesn't have to lean down as far
Thinks the "Spider-Man Kiss" is corny, but he'll do it if you ask
He only realizes how much he needs you once it's too late
When he gets the call from Peter, the first thing he does is ask for you
But you can't come
It's too far for Peter to get you from your place in so little time
Ben makes him promise to pass a message to you
The next morning, Peter's at your door with some chocolate and a note
It's short, to the point, vaguely sappy
Ben apologizing for being an idiot, for lying, for throwing away everything he had
For choosing his job over you
It ends with him saying that "I could never show you as much of the love you deserved. I'm sorry.. I can never stop loving you, for any reason. The job still needs to be done. I love you."
Peter explains that Ben had probably written it right before the takedown of Shield, and intended for you to find it yourself
Obviously didn't work that way
And now, you were stuck with the knowledge that he "can never stop loving you", and the belief that your boyfriend was dead.
-----
Thinking of making post-resurrection its own part.. of tie it with thoughts from the bottom of the harbor. Let me know if y'all want another part!

just putting this here bc im feeling a bit frustrated with myself right now & talking at nobody helps
cw: not eating enough, & thusly not feeling great; general health; body health; venting
i always feel bad about being so concerned about my health when everybody says im healthy bc i know im not--for context: i probably have arfid & have big issues w food texture to the point where i struggle to eat much of any meat/protein & other vitamins
in the past (before i started taking vitamins & iron supplements) i used to always be dead tired. i knew i wasnt depressed but it was more just that i could barely make my body do anything?? it even got so bad once that i couldnt move my arms for like 3 minutes (which was fucking terrifying bc it came out of nowhere). i used to feel like i was hollow--like there was nothing behind my face but skin & bones. i used to feel sick looking at my body bc i felt like i looked more like a skeleton than a person. i lowkey felt like my body was corroding & eating itself--i wasnt dying but it felt like it
so i was like "oh shit" & started taking vitamins & iron (even though my doctor said my blood work was fine??), and stopped feeling quite as much like death, yay! but even still im usually exhausted & feel like shit... like i still struggle to eat enough and its just frustrating bc i dont want to talk to people about it a ton? i have a bad habit of obessng over my health (prob bc i dont usually feel awesome) & i get by enough to where i seem fine? sometimes im not even sure if im just making this bigger in my head (granted, while im typing this my hands are shaking bc i havent been getting enough to eat lmao) but most people think im making it a big deal? idrk man... like i know i get anxious, & my doctor keeps telling me that im fine, but i still usually feel like shit (not like im dying any more, though! win!)... like people tell me i need to stop worrying about my health but like idfk.... its hard to not worry when i feel like im in the lowest possible bit of qualifying as "normally healthy".... ugh
like i qualify as "fine", but if i eat a meal too late my abdomen becomes concave?? like i know this is a Thing, but it happens to me pretty regularly which makes me tweak tf out because like??? is that realy normal????
its also hard because as a woman, people always go "omg ur so skinny!!! ur so pretty <3 <3 i wish i had ur body!!!" (i'm 5'8" & 104 lbs) because i feel so guilty for wanting to gain weight? i should want this right? like so may people want to be like me--even though i feel sick & dead all the time... like you shouldnt want this--or should i not want to change? sometimes i wonder if i should give up bc it took me 2 years to gain 10lbs...
maybe i just should talk to my therapist about it sometime instead of my ocd idfk... i just want to feel Healthy again.. i feel like its been years since ive felt energized and alive... since i havent felt like i could die if i ended up missing a meal... since i havent been able to see my hip bones stick out like im dying (looking at them makes me feel sick to my stomach)... since i havent felt as if my own body was eating itself... ugh

hi i heard you wanted extinct animal facts..... SO HERE I AM RAHHHHH vvv me showing up to your inbox
Tumblr media
my favorite fact that i always start with for some reason is that hadrosaurs (like. parasaurolophus/edmontosaurus/etc) were VERY good at chewing. Like VERY adapted to it. like so adapted. Chewing was so easysauce. They had special joints in their upper jaw to allow them to move the upper jaw INDEPENDANTLY from the bottom. Me when i enter a chewing competition and my opponent is a hadrosaur -> </3. i have a video too i saved from my dinosaurs class. I DONT know if iguanodonts share the same adaptation but im leaning towards probably
ANOTHER FACT i learned in my dinosaur class earlier this year is that Pachycephalosaurus LIKELY didnt headbutt eachother. yes their skull domes could get several several inches thick but i was taught there were more cons to pros for it! Like one point against the headbutting is that the dome is Highly vascularized (which means it has alot of blood vessels in it) and thats like. if youre ramming a part of yourself into something at full force you uh. you dont want alot of blood vessels there. yknow. ankylosaurus knows. their tail clubs arent highly vascularized so they were safe enough swinging those thangs anyway they wanted
enough about dinosaurs. MULTITUBERCULATES. theyre my flavorite. theyre this order of mammals that lived from the cretaceous to the late eocene. theyre like. the rodents before the rodents. they literally have the same front teeth as rodents do. but. get this
Tumblr media
massive fucking molar moment. This is the skull of Ptilodus if youre wondering (the species my main sona is based off of !!!!). also they were one of the Only groups of animals that chewed front-to-back. every other animal and every animal alive today chews side-to-side or back-to-front. love these freaks. we dont even know if theyre placentals or marsupials or what
Another one of my flavorite facts is shortly after the end Permian mass extinction, like, 95% of all land animals was this one. synapsid (think more related to mammals than reptiles but not an actual mammal) called Lystrosaurus. its so silly i think
oh god this is getting so long uh. uh one more fact. Psittacosaurus is pretttyyyy cool, literally the dinosaur we basically know most about??? if that makes sense?? in my personal opinion?? like we KNOW what psittacosaurus looked like, colors and all. tons of really well preserved fossils. and tons of fossils from each growth stage so we kinda also have a good idea of how they grew from hatchling to adult.. and we have 12 species of them... also its just not Psittacosaurus we have a good idea of the colors of.... theres also borealopelta, sinosauropteryx, i believe we have an idea of archaeopteryx and microraptor colors... mainly feathered goobers tbh. Also Psittacosaurus is a ceratopsian. like an early one. that little thang is related to triceratops. wowa
BUT YEAH UH ENJOY. as you can see i am so normal about dinosaurs and other extinct guys. if i iddnt want this to be long as fuck (failed at this actually) id still be continuing the facts tbh LOL
OMG!! HOLY YAP!: I LOVE THAGUT YSE YES YS YESSSdnoit wory abou length becasuw if ii cna make walls of text and not. get beat up tehn yuo can too 😆
Wow,, hadrosaurs loook realy stupid (Positive way) i tjink the term duck billed is vry funny
Havig moving upper jaw fascinating no?? considering the fact we dnot have them Or probably a lot of other species too🤔 How hard was it to eat the food to need to evolve adn grow joints js to chew better💔💔💔💔
Wohaaa pachycephalosaurus (idk how i spelld thta right first time) have BIG foreheads 😮 but if not to headbutt people what for?? Cuz looks cool?? (Honetsly tat would kinda make sense cuz,, look at peacocks for exampl,, U ahve all those feathers and it just to impress the ladies)
MULTITUBERCULATES R LIKE CHINCHILLA AND GUINEA PIG ANCESTOR?? Jesus taht tooth is big… Ptilodus ahve nice spiraling tail in tge artist conceptions🌀🌀🌀 i see why u base sona off of them tehy r very cool
wow Lystrosaurus faces r rely long. Wyh the long face?? Im sory in adanvce they do nto look the brightests… (Not mean way)
I tjink us knowing a lot abotu psittacosaurus characteristics (VRY CUTE BTW) awesom cuz. How long ago were these silly gusy??Ohh 145 million.. anywa thats CRAZY waht were the chances of findign fossils well preserve enough u were able to fjind out abotu all taht! AND of diffrent ages??? Lik. its very hard for fossill to happen at all rigt? Gambling glorified…
Archaeopteryx adn microrapter look like evry silly birds too these silly guys r very cool!! i tjink i am glad to be fossil team (i chose becasue of lucy(space probe)…💔) TAHKN YOU VRY MUCH FOR SHARING THESE FACTS AHHHHH ,,,,aAND YOUR DOODLE i not sure if hadrosaur or ur sona Oops btu either way i love them a lot Aaebaibiabjhvkhcjkhgphdgcjpihsimhfdsjohfs ojfhorwsjaspdjo

TAROT OBSERVATIONS
Tumblr media
Ahhh tarot, one of my fave things to talk about.
So I want to talk about a few cards that's been on my mind lately. Some times interpretations can be a little misguided, but overall I like to tell people to trust their gut. So without further a due we can get started on some things I've observed over the years.
Starting with..
7 of Cups
so the 7 of cups takes a focus on dreams and goals that one wants to embark on.. but wait.. which one do you choose? its so funny to me. Because its like each cup shows a different dimension on where your life could go. But only one is going to be the one that works the best at the moment. And the rest will follow. This is where a lot of confusion comes in when this card comes up in the reading, be it love, money, career... you name it. It's message to the reader is so that this person can choose ONE thing, so it can commit on the others little by little. Piece by piece. Giving your all to that one thing, and a little bit here and there to the others will help them grow much easier. If its in the matters of love, you might have too much on your plate, and should probably re-examine the wants and needs of your relationship in due time.
8 of Cups
Abundance. Time. And Commitment. Nothing comes fast and easy with this placement, and even if you don't have all the resources, someone will come along and will help you for the ride. Don't be ashamed to let people in when you dont know what works at the moment. You could use a helping hand even if you think you have it all together you know. with the 8 of cups, its simply asking us to feel determined in all that we do, because the reward is right around the corner.
The Empress
I love this one, which is why its the third one. The Empress shows creative magic, that is connected to the sacral chraka/womb space. The person who gets this card in any reading is shown to have deep resilience, luck, charm and an openess that brings people towards them. Even if they do not know this for themselves, they are seen as attractive individuals and its their auras that capture the attention of many. If you see this in a love reading, career reading or even a money reading, you have all the cards and should be using your energy to the fullest.
Queen Of Wands
This card shows an individual who is a boss, is top notch and knows what they want. If you get this card in a love, career, money reading etc. You gotta play your part as the leader in some way and to never run away from it. It shows a drive in the persona that could be very fiery in nature, and people tend to like this side of you. Could also show someone who can be great in what they do, and should be open to sharing that gift with everyone in the future.
8 of Wands
The 8 of wands is a bit fickle to me. It shows a lot determination at the start, like going back and forth on an idea and then coming to terms with it. This can show up as energy that can be fiery and has a need to 'go to war' for whatever it is that person desires. A lot of heavy lifting in my opinion.
Ace of Coins
Beneficial in a reading if you ask me. If you see this come up in any reading, be it love, money, career etc. You might get something special out of it. Like all that work paid off or something. Could be a new lover could be financial stable and you could benefit from this. Your new career could be bringing you a fortune, or you simply are in luck for some fun and money matters are going to be alright. So if you get this card this energy would be great to pull in a reading.
The Moon
The subconscious is the focal point here for me. It's really deep and can penetrate the reading in a whole new function, since its connected to water. I feel that getting this card in a love reading would show something you need to analyze a bit more, learning how to trust your gut and not going in head first all of the time. The moon card is indeed the mystic, and you could learn a lot about how your emotions plays a huge role in your reality at the moment.
The Sun
Excellence. A really lucky card. It shows that things will go great during this time and how your energy will be more lucky, confidence will be up, and life will show experiences that makes living all worth it. It could be a sign of celebration. In love, it could mean a happy, balanced couple. In career, this could be fortunate. It all depends on what you're looking to get into.
6 Of Coins
My generous card. When pulling this card, it shows an appreciation of material things and the heart. Its focus is on helping the ones you love, and being in a fortunate position and using that gift to work with the community in some way shape or form. It could also mean you might need to hold on to your coin a little longer, and not being a super spender just because you got it, you never know when you're going to need it for something good ;)
Thats it for now. Just wanted to try this new observation list and get started on more to come. Hope you lot enjoy!
