#Mozzi's Stories

[operativemoonchild]

So:

I have returned. Due to some past drama, I kinda just deleted my old Tumblr in a panic, and now I have to find a lot of you again. Anyway, onto the introduction!

I was formerly known as astralasteriion, though I felt like going back to my roots 🩵

Kyo/Mozzi/Aster (any of these work as names teehee)

Any pronouns (no preference, ehe!)

Don't flirt with me, okie?

19 years old, so please tread with caution if you aren't comfy with that, okay?

I post a lot of writing, maybe also posting my TikToks and art, tho I'm not very confident in a lot of things, so you might not.

This blog will be predominantly MSM, Among us, FAKE TYPE, and OC-posting, so keep that in mind.

in a time where shows subtly danced around the dynamics between their protagonists, left everything up for interpretation, and didn't elaborate, explore, or have them express their feelings with each other, white collar had neal tell his deadbeat dad that peter is more of a dad to him than he ever was and i just think that's beautiful

[whitecollarcrimekids]

Mozzie got kicked out of boy scouts for cheating, something about the pine box derby and magnets.

WELL. I was watching white collar with my dad and he grabs the remote and goes “Oh my god. I know what he’s talking about!! That happened when I was in scouts!” So story time.

Boy scouts way back when used to have a race called the pine box derby. Scouts would have to build some sort of a car out of carts/boxes/whatever they could find. They’d attach wheels and basically make as good of a little race car as they could. Now. At the start of the race, all the cars would line up on a hill and be held in place by a big metal slab. When the bell sounded, the slab would fall forward and all the cars would roll down the hill. But because the slab was metal, that meant it was magnetic. If you wanted to cheat, you would find yourself some industrial strength magnets and imbed them in the front of your little car. They would attach to the slab and when it fell forward the magnets would pull your car forward with it giving you the extra boost forward to win.

Mozzie’s been out here playing work smarter not harder since he was a literal child.

[wulfums]

Whatwulf has been playing Monster Hunter Stories on his switch lately and wanted to name a monstie after his hubby :)

[whatsagirltoblogabout]

Awwwwwww! That was freaking adorable, oh my gosh!

[astridhobbit]

Mozzie did this to me. He was getting ready to jump up on the counter (illegal in our house) so I got between him and the counter and was like "no dude, not okay."

He gave me a mildly irritated look and moved to a different spot and got ready to jump up.

I got between him and the counter.

We went back and forth for a few rounds, and I swear, every time I got in his way, he gave me this "dude, what is your DEAL I am trying to DO SOMETHING here" irritated kind of look, like I was interrupting his Important Task.

The only thing that got him to stop and move on was to let him jump up, then immediately evict him. Goofball cat.

love when you stop a cat from doing something and instead of understanding that they shouldnt be doing that theyre just like. ah sorry my good sir you seem to have interrupted me. no worries let me just shimmy past you and get a taste of that pan of hot oil. please.

[obsessed-mosquito]

WHY IS ANIMATION SO HARD?! 😭

[children-of-epiales]

My feelings about this:

Kinda strange for IQ to be reaching out after what happened at the tower, not that Im like "shes nighthaven now so she doesnt care" but this is the first time someone from nighthaven has reached out like this

We finally!!! get something about Ela and Zofia!!! GLAD TO KNOW ZOFIA'S OKAY!! Also yeah Ela WHY ARE U TENSE HM no shade on her for leaving i swear, i get why she's "tense" but like shes got a new family now (okay im still a little spicy), be like kali and worry about them yeah? (ofc it had to be smoke to make the comment)

Ram is pretty!!!! I fucking love the lil knitted tarantula keychain thing

V appropriate for Kaid to mention her being in the tarantula unit

So Thermite's mostly concerned about Redhammer, but why bring Harry into it? Yeah he's gone but like, if you mention him u gotta mention everyone. Sledge got back to work like he didnt get fucking blown up like, also "everyones gotta align" huh??? everyone is aligned, are they not? whats missing Thermite?

Vigil didnt need to put his two cents in, Ram was up against someone in a HELICOPTER what else was she gonna do??? Maybe im reckless but like?? Also she already knows she cant go apeshit again so not helpful Vigil

Amaru's and Melusi's two cents are v appropriate as well, its nice to hear from them too 100/10 i agree

Good observation Castle but i dont blame her

FENRIR FENRIR! MANS IS RIGHT, RAM KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING!!! Everyones like "shes so reckless omg" bullshit, 1000/10 good two cents Fenrir

Frost sweetie hunty you lay a trap how??? The soldiers at the tower were AMBUSHED and, again, by a HELICOPTER, what kind of trap could Ram have set up?? Like yeah traps are Frost's thing we get it but what??huh???

I love that Dokkaebi was the one to make this comment, also very exciting who's the backdoor??

A little Mozzie humor why not?

I couldnt agree more Nomad

A little Bandit two cents, he's right he's right

Ill be damned, Mozzie showing Vigil what its like to Not Be A Dickhead, and I absolutely agree-i guess its not too much to assume Vigil feels somewhat responsible for what happened even though he had no clue, that makes sense

And here we have Vigil being an Absolute Dickhead (yeah yeah ik he obviously doesnt understand Mozzie is trying to show his support and care for Vigil but like the dude literally said he wanted to kill Mozzie and for what?? cause he's loud-mouthed like??? sooooo)

More of Vigil being a Dickhead, 1000/10 Vigil we can always rely on u (maybe its a thing for Fenrir bc hes all Fear this and Fear that but Vigil doesnt have to call him the "Swede" like motherfucker take off ur mask and talk to ppl like a normal person bitch)

Okay I missed Ram talking about how she lost Andwae, im glad she got to say something about it and could voice how bad she's grieving rn

[strangetown-gaming]

I'm so tired today.

I was getting ready to sleep, I heard a buzzing by my ear, I turned my light on, slapped the little mosquito and went back to bed...

I heard a buzzing by my ear again, frustrated I turned the light on, slapped ANOTHER little mosquito and went back to my bed... I heard ANOTHER BUZZ and I felt like I was going mad.

I turned the light on, swiveled my head in all directions and saw the new aggressor was on the ceiling. I frantically waved at it hoping it would move lower down the wall but he kept dancing across the ceiling.

Luckily he was above my chair, I needed something long with reach so with duster in hand I smooshed him.

My boyfriend pointed him out on the wall, I was annoyed he was still alive but grateful someone else had seen it, I wasn't going mad after all.

I smack him with a slim beam of wood I had been hoarding for some unknown reason, unaware that fate had led us to this moment, weapon in hand we struck. I struck again and again and again reaching the other side of the room finally he had lowered himself, perhaps feeling pity for me, but this was his mistake. I bested him finally, his remains painting my cream coloured walls.

Tired and defeated I said "I'll sleep on the couch tonight, I've kept you awake for long enough."

I breathed a sigh and clutching a pillow I trudged to the door and saw it. Another mosquito. I slapped it lazily and chuckled at how absurd this all was.

I made my way to my new camp for the night, the grey mottled couch was where I'd be resting my head. As I drifted into slumber it occurred to me, had my boyfriend been wearing his glasses when he pointed out the mosquito? Perhaps he had seen the remains of a previous escapade I'd had with an unlucky insectoid weeks prior. I couldn't worry about that now, sleep had me in her sweet embrace.

When I awoke the next morning I groggily wandered back to the bedroom, back to where it had all happened. "So that wasn't just a dream huh?" I said under my breath looking at my discarded weapons. As I picked them up to put them away (why I was still holding onto the wood I'll never know. Perhaps fate has more plans for us in the future), I lifted my head to see the result of my fight and...

the body was gone.

GIULIO MOZZI

LA PUREZZA DELLA LINGUA ITALIANA

Trovo in un vocabolario, come esempio, questa frase (tratta dalle «Storie fiorentine» di Benedetto Varchi: «Volentieri faceva stravizii, e si trovava, benché vecchio, a tafferugli in giuochi e tresche con giovani».

È una bella frase, con tre divertenti etimologie.

«Stravizio» non è un accrescitivo (col prefisso «stra-») di «vizio»; ma una parola che viene dalla Croazia: «zdravica» in croato è il brindisi, e per metonimia la festa. Un’occasione per trincare, insomma (e, già che ci siamo: trincare è ovviamente parola germanica, da «trinken», bere – da cui anche il «drink, drank, drunk» inglese); e nel trincare, si sa, facilmente si rischia l’eccesso. Bere troppo è un vizio, bere troppo continuamente è straviziare: ovviamente la somiglianza tra «vizio» e «stravizio», e l’illusione che «stra-» fosse un prefisso accrescitivo, ha facilitato l’accostamento delle due parole.

«Tafferuglio» è parola araba: «tafarruǧ», ovvero piacevole spettacolo; entrata in italiano nel senso di «baldoria chiassosa», così chiassosa (e stravizievole, magari) da includere l’idea di qualche scappellotto che vola (e: sì, lo scappellotto è una sberla da dietro, che fa volare via il cappello). Da qui il significato di situazione in cui si alzano le mani, ma non così violentemente da far parlare di una rissa (notare che «rissa» e «ressa», ovvero calca, sono entrambe, con diverso suono e diverso significato, dal latino «rixa»).

«Trescare», da cui il deverbale «tresca», è dal tedesco «dresken», avvero «trebbiare». Una volta si trebbiava spargendo il grano sull’aia e saltellandoci sopra, magari a suon di musica o canti: quindi «trescare» arriva in Italia nel senso di «ballare in gruppo» (un «ballo saltereccio», come dice il Tommaseo); trattandosi di un ballo nel quale spesso ci si incrociava e ci si scambiava di posto, entra il significato di «intreccio»: perciò «trescare» si avvicina a «tramare», nel senso di «organizzare un intrigo». (La festa della trebbiatura, ovvero la festa della fine del raccolto, era poi spesso occasione di incontri tra famiglie diverse, e quindi di «tresche» – interessante metonimia – tra ragazze e ragazzi; e poiché talvolta si trebbiava facendo passeggiare sul grano i cavalli, «tresca» è anche una particolare manovra di equitazione con cui si fa girare il cavallo su sé stesso).

Croazia, Arabia e Germania si sono dunque date appuntamento in questa frase di Benedetto Varchi: che, come scrittore, è considerato un esempio classico della più pura lingua italiana.

Ma a che cosa serve, sapere queste cose? A niente, se volete; ma serve a molto avere coscienza, quando si scrive, di che cosa è la nostra lingua e del suo spessore storico.

this fic is based on a request i got from an anonymous user , which can be seen here ! i was so excited to get this , it was my first requeset and i wanted to make sure it was up to par . i hope this is what you wanted , and thank you so so much for sending it in !

my requests are still open , so be sure send them in :) i'll be slowly working through any that get sent over !

neal caffrey x fem!reader (romantic)

summary: when neal falls in love with a girl who owns a bakery in the city and dreams of a cottage in the woods . based on this request .

warnings: none !

word count: 1.2k

the first time neal met her, she had just come out of the bakery’s kitchen, smiling at him as she laid out new loaves on the shelf labeled, “sourdough.” elizabeth had been raving about the new bakery that opened up not too far from the office, and he felt a pull to go there. he found it especially ironic that he once bought a bakery, chuckling to himself about how different this one would be. it definitely wouldn’t involve him jumping out of a window onto the awning. 

he walked inside, the door chiming a voice from the back yelling out to give her just a minute! he stood in front of the display case, met with some of the most beautiful pastries he’d ever seen. a variety of croissants, pain au chocolat, peach and strawberry chaussons – there were so many of them. and the amount of bread that adorned each shelf was incredible. each bread was separated from one another, a label underneath each and atop it all was a sign with the labels “boule – 6.50” and “batard – $7.50” 

the rest of the bakery was beautiful as well. the walls were covered in golden oak panels, refinished to look like they had a long history. there was a case in the front right corner of multiple different flowers, and there were baskets near the pastry display cases of lavender and wildflowers. they were tied together with various colours of ribbon, a bow at the front of each bouquet to complete them. on the opposing side from the flower case was a shelf of honey jars, with a cute yellow sign reading, “honey, home-grown and fresh! bees are well taken care of :) $5.00”

he smiled at how sweetly everything was put together. he knew a lot of thought had gone into this place, and everything was so pretty. not only that, but the smell of pastries in the case made his mouth water. he knew he needed to buy a bunch to bring back to the office, and a few extra on top of that to give to mozzie.   

when she walked out from the kitchen area as he was surveying the palce, sourdough loaves in hand and smiling at him, neal thought he’d gone to heaven right then and there. she had the brightest, most beautiful smile he’d ever seen. he wanted to see that smile over and over again for the rest of his life. he felt his own mouth immediately rise into a smile as well as he looked at her restocking the sourdough loaves. 

“i see those are popular,” he said once she turned back towards him.

“oh, yes! they go out of stock really early in the morning, but today i made some extra. poor cin-dough-ella is being put to serious work every day for that bread,” she said, frowning at the end.

“cin-dough-ella?” neal asked, curious to what she meant. what the hell is a cin-dough-ella?

“that’s what i named my sourdough starter! she’s been in the family for years now, it felt right to finally give her a name,” she nodded, content, before continuing, “anyways, what can i get you today?” 

“definitely one of those sourdough loaves,” neal replied, grinning at her.

after the loaves of bread, he got two entire boxes of pastries filled: one for home (to share with mozzie and june, of course) and one for the office. he kept making small-talk with the bakery owner, liking her more and more as the minutes passed. once he paid, he thanked her and left. he was only 20 steps away from the bakery when he decided to turn back around and ask for her number. so began their love story.

he since learned that she always wanted to own a bakery, but she never expected for it to be in the city. she always thought it’d be in the countryside, where she’d live in a cottage and perhaps even have her own animals. plans change, though, and she ended up moving to the city for reasons out of her control. she was quite happy here, though, and having the bakery at least solved one part of the equation. 

neal was happy that she moved here, and that he had met her when he did. they’d gone on three dates since their first meeting before making it official. it’s been three years since then, and they were more in love than the first time they met.

neal often came home to their shared apartment and found her baking. she was always trying new recipes and wanting to welcome him home with a fresh pastry. he had absolutely no complaints about that. he also found a way to make her cottage dreams come true, being able to get his hands on a beautiful home in the countryside that they could go to for vacations. he still has the memory etched in his mind from when he surprised her with the cottage, the smile she had on her face as happy tears rolled down her face. she hugged him so hard, whispering thank you’s into his neck.

he would always do what he could to make her happy, and she gave back as much as she could. they both had their bad days. ones where she would have an unsuccessful day at the bakery and felt discouraged, and he’d remind her that tomorrow is a new day. he’d hug her and comfort her and love her all the ways she needed to be loved. and there were the days where neal would come home after an awful day working on a new case, feeling hopeless and like he couldn’t do anything to help. and she’d remind him that he was the smartest man she knew, that he knew what he was doing, and that maybe he needed to look at the case from a new angle. she’d remind him of how beautiful his heart was and hold him and love him all the ways he needed to be loved. 

from the moment they locked eyes on that first day, smiles adorned on both of their faces, it was written into the world that they were it for each other. there was no love greater than the one they held for each other. always putting one another above anything else, making time to spend together, ensuring that they were always prioritized and never felt pushed away. it wasn’t always perfect, but they were a team as much as they were lovers and it worked.  

neal’s love with the girl who owns a bakery, one who loves wildflowers and wants a cottage in the woods is one he wouldn’t give up for anything. and maybe one day, when they no longer want to live in the city, they’ll move full time to that cottage in the countryside and raise cows and bees and sheep together. she’d teach him how to make sourdough bread and pain au chocolat, and he’d do the handiwork around their home and make the best wine they’d ever tasted. this love would be absolute bliss, and it would last forever. it would leave them sitting on their porch, old and grey, hand in hand as they still love one another just as much as they did when they were young.

Update about rewatching the 2009 crime drama, White Collar with my 60 year old mother: I have successfully completely convinced my mom that Neal Caffrey is gay and is 100% in love with his FBI partner, Peter Burke. Every single episode when the show has Neal flirt with women, my mom comments about how little she buys that relationship, and whenever the show has Neal and Peter visibly care about each other, my mom comments that it’s because he’s his boyfriend. We are in Season 3, and she has framed Neal’s decision to stay with Peter or go on the run with his crime partner Mozzie as a gay love triangle. Today, my mom told me how much she enjoys rewatching it specifically because seeing it as a love story between the two leads has added a dimension that wasn’t there before. Welcome aboard the ship, mom. 👍

(⁠っ⁠˘⁠з⁠(⁠˘⁠⌣⁠˘⁠ ⁠)💕

[subparparsley]

I sometimes think about Neal with a secret sister that becomes less secret. Neal's mystique suddenly falling away as he falls into sibling rivalry habits is too funny.

Neal's sister being just as hot as he is, and together them looking like a runway duo. The two of them being fiercely protective of each other, and her being particularly ruthless about looking out for her brother.

His sister being more naturally outgoing and funny than him, but still going along with his stupid "mystery man" routine, but making sure everyone knows it's bullshit as she puts emphasis on the "cover story" aspects, much to Neal's frustration. She's perfectly happy to spill all the embarrassing stories she has of Neal, while keeping it vague enough that it can't be used for a background search.

Mozzie absolutely loves Neal's sister because she's basically the chaos gremlin version of Neal, and is one of the few people who will really take the piss out of Neal in a way that Mozzie finds acceptable. In fact, everyone really liking her, and Neal getting petulantly jealous over it, much to her amusement.

Diana telling Neal that his sister is hot, and Neal having a hard time tyring to work out if he should warn Diana off / giver her the shovel talk, or hide.

[thesymphonytrue]

Hiiiiii I just have to ask if you have any Neal/Peter fic recs? On or off ao3, I'm just really craving some good sweet stories w them 😩

Hiiii!!!!

oooooo yesssss!!! Here are a few that I love:

a particular type of hat by natlet

I am obsessed with this fic. The writing style and language is sooo beautiful. GAH 😭 It's written with quite a few time jumps...so for me I had to take it slow and really enjoy and savor the fic. I mean just read this:

It's the first chance he's had to look at Neal, slow down and really look at him, and he's so - Peter can't find the words for it. Neal looks like a fascinating new case, like Mozzie's car, like the sun setting behind home plate. He looks like something Peter wants to get his hands on. His hair is longer, bleached light by the sun and curling in the sea air, and Peter wants to reach out, brush it back off his forehead, run his thumb along the line of stubble hugging Neal's jaw.

UGH gorgeous!!! I love this paragraph so much and the entire fic is written like this, so soft and beautiful.

this body is yours (your mess is mine) by multifandomjess

This is another fic I have read over and over. It's so well done and "fixes" that season five argument we all cry over 😭

an excerpt:

Peter is still against him, and for a moment Neal is worried that he’s misread everything and made a terrible mistake. But then, Peter makes a tiny, wanting sound and his eyelids are fluttering closed as his lips part beneath Neal’s. Neal smiles into the kiss, his heart racing as he threads his fingers through the short hair at the nape of Peter’s neck. His tongue sweeps along the seam of Peter’s lips to tangle with Peter’s, and they’re kissing, and kissing, and kissing.

T^T it's so soft. and I love it.

Cleaning Out the Wound by melenafrey

More Cape Verde goodness because god those episodes were romantic!! This one features protective Mozzie. 😂

 “Don’t you get what I’m trying to say here?" He closed his eyes and let his head fall forward the short distance to rest against Neal’s. He heard Neal’s surprised intake of breath, and then nothing. Neal stayed, and Peter could feel the weight of his heavy head as he relaxed into the touch.

MY HEART 😭

Company Picnic by laulan

This one is just short and literally sweet and SO them.

Then Neal catches Peter's wrist in his hand and brushes his lips over the pad of Peter's thumb, his eyes warm and devilish. Peter jumps, giving Neal a stern look and pushing down the lingering thought that he should go for it anyway, damn whoever's looking.

lol Neal literally is just tempting Peter this entire fic and it's adorable.

Awakening by Sulwen

haha can you tell I like Cape Verde fics? This one is really good. Very true to their characters.

“This wasn't supposed to be a chase!”

There's a long pause before Peter speaks again. “Tell me, then, Neal. What was it?”

Neal bows his head and stares at the floor, long enough for Peter to step forward again and reach out a tentative hand. He takes a deep breath. This isn't going to help. If anything, it's going to pull Peter in deeper, make him that much more determined. But he's talked himself into a corner, and he can't find a way to slip it. The only way out is through.

THAT DIALOGUE THO!!!

Undeniable by cookiegirl

This one is just cozy and soft and sweet and set in Copenhagen so what is not to like? It's like being wrapped in a warm hug!

Everything would be easier, Peter thinks, if Copenhagen wasn’t so damn romantic. He’s not usually one to notice things like that, but even he can’t miss the way that the October late-afternoon sun turns the water in Nyhavn harbor golden, and deepens the burnt orange and burnished yellow shades of the townhouses. Tourist couples stroll past, hand in hand, or sit close together at the outdoor tables of the tiny canalside cafes, and the air swirls with happy chatter and the strains of restaurant music. It is undeniably idyllic, and it’s making Peter’s skin itch.

Things would also be easier, of course, if Neal wasn’t so damn… Neal.

heeeheee!!!! so cute!!!

Five Kisses That Never Happened by china_shop

Just check out all of china_shop's stuff. I love their Peter/Neal fics and this one is pure fluff and warm feelings.

"Shut up," says Neal and leans into him, kisses him softly, over and over like he'll never get enough.

~~~~~~~

Okay those are my top favorites, but I think I have some more on my bookmarks on AO3 I think, so feel free to check them out. I don't usually recommend my own fics, but if you haven't read them I have a few fluffy Peter/Neal fics as well that I can share here if needed! <3 <3 <3 I hope this helps!! Thanks for the ask! I love talking fanfic!! :D

[allofmytoxicity]

Hi, I’m currently writing my first ever Neal Caffrey and was wondering if you’d like to be tagged into any of my stories. I understand if that’s something you don’t want to. Have you got any tips writing for him? :)

Oh my gosh! Yeah! Okay, so, tips for writing Neal (at least from what I have)

- Always, when Neal is talking refer to Mozzie as Moz.

- The only time, and this is in the show as well, when Neal refers to Mozzie as Mozzie instead of Moz is in a dead serious conversation with Mozzie.

- I give Neal that weird mix of Golden retriever and black cat energy.

- But if I'm writing Peter (and it is a possibility, my drafts are a thing of great mystery) I'll give him a weird mix of Golden retriever and bull dog.

- For any other detailing I use @/theschoolofplot on insta for different things. They mainly have fantasy writing tips, but in all of that, have lots of general writing tips as well

- Oh, and for crimes, I know it will look dead dodgy, but make your search history look like you are about to go and commit a crime. Every crime. Don't care what it is. From cons to murder, let the FBI suspect EVERYTHING about you.

- I don't live anywhere near New York or the US as a whole, I'm in the UK, so I do quite commonly sit and look at a map. It isn't the best, but it does come in handy for looking at how long streets normally are in the area I'm trying to describe, even if I'm using the wrong names.

- Back on the point of writing Neal as a character, I'll normally rewatch a couple White Collar episodes as I'm writing a piece just to make sure the levels of sass are up to scratch.

I think that's kind of it from what I can think of, at least for now, but if you need anymore tips, feel free to send in another ask.
