Abe pursed his lips and crossed his arms defensively, “who said I care?”
“Dude.“ Lucy gave him a disparaging look.
“Okay, okay, that is what I was gonna ask…” Abe played with the hem of his shirt rather than look back at his sister.
“What answer are you looking for?” She raised an eyebrow, “are you hoping he’s miserable without you around suddenly?”
“...Is he?” Abe’s face was unreadable.
Lucy’s irritated tone returned, “You’re the one who broke up with him”
“It was mut—....” Abe faltered when Lucy gave him a look that could kill. She knew her brother knew better than to finish that sentence.
“If anything, he should be the one hoping you’re miserable.” She raised a brow. Her brother almost looked hopeful, which only served to irritate her more, so she continued, “but as far as I can tell, he’s not. Hoping that you’re pining, I mean. Or doing so himself.”
Her brother’s face fell almost imperceptibly. Good. She thought. It was only half a lie anyways. Roman did seem to be doing better recently. Especially after dragging him to that party a week and a half ago. He’d made his own friends, ones that weren’t Abe’s friends first, for the first time in his life, and that seemed to be helping.
“Oh that's… That’s good.” Abe said, “I don’t… want him to be miserable.”
so much happened in this whole episode but i’m still on fig infiltrating ruben’s dream, making it look like the place where his friend was murdered, and then disguising herself as kipperlilly & repeatedly saying different variants of “somebody needs to take the fall for this, and it’s not going to be me. it’s going to be you.” while adaine as the elven oracle shows up next to her. can you imagine waking up from that, the idea of a horrible truth being pinned on you by your friend to save her own skin while the personification of fate and destiny stands there, almost as a promise that this is GOING to happen to you. we don’t even know if this kid is guilty. my god.
do you have a general idea of what renrens voice would sound like? like a celebrity, singer, or maybe just a general description?
i hope all is going well for you 🫶🫶
✦゜ANSWERED: Ren's singing vc can be found here (I misread the original ask and thought it said "sings like", not "sounds like" sdksdgjs), but it also includes what I think Ren's talking voice would sound like ^^
But!! if I had to give an example, I've always imagined Eve (from Nier) to be very similar to Ren's talking voice!! It's soft, timid, and has that curious lilt to it — but also has dat [REDACTED] edge as well >:3
You know what's surprising with Nalu is I think Natsu is more attracted to Lucy than she is to him
Like pushing my feminist to the side for a shameful moment, he only ever gets flustered and pleased when he sees her naked or when he some way or another ends up groping her (a lot more obvious in 100YQ)
(The fucking random chapter where they're in the stone age holy fuck 😭😭😭✋️✋️✋️)
He deadass attacked guys that were hitting on her at the train station
Says he finds her smell comforting (she's his canonical safe space lord have mercy)
Lucy gets flustered when Natsu closes in on her face when they dance, and when that kid (whose name I forgot lol) tried to force them to kiss
Lucy also gets flustered when he's naked, but any guy who is suddenly naked in front of her makes her embarrassed. Same with when he ends up landing on her boobs or something.
Lucy's attraction to Natsu is a lot more subtle and sometimes you can even interpret these teases as not special to Natsu specifically if you REALLY wanted to stretch it that way
From what I remember, Natsu flusters Lucy when he does something unexpectedly intimate or flirty, but when other guys do something similar (i.e. Loki) she's pretty stale about it
But Natsu now
It's Lucy or nothing LMAO
Like even when he semi-admits to having a crush on someone else- Anna Heartfilia- it is only so Mashima can reveal he is attracted to Lucy in the same way he was attracted to Anna before
When Lucy's drunk she's extremely clingy to only Natsu, while the usual oblivious Natsu is visibly flustered and nervous from her attention and proximity- WRITTEN AND ILLUSTRATED BY MASHIMA HIMSELF
Songs Lucy dacus writes about men are like “yeah I dated this guy when I was 13 and he sucked what a fucking loser” and “I will jump out of this car and walk home 4 miles in the snow” but the songs she writes about women are like “hey, I will kill your dad if you want just give me the word” and “if you marry your dumbass boyfriend I’ll throw my shoe at you on your wedding day”
"A falls first but B falls harder" nah man give me a depressed, charismatic British boy who looks at a really fucking powerful, angry, and incredibly Talented girl and falls both first AND harder. Give me one of the only M/F ships that I am totally obsessed with. GIVE ME LOCKLYLE!!
