WORDS COUNT: 2.0k
WARNINGS: "y/n" used once, smutt, first time, drink commented, fluff, lucas being extremely cute, reader being best friends with Brooke and Peyton.

English is not my first language, I'm sorry if I make mistakes in my writing!!
This fic will have sensitive and sexual content. MNDI!
It had been a while since you had become friends with Brooke and Peyton, which resulted in you being one of the most famous friendship trios at Tree Hill High School. Brooke being the most outgoing, of course, Brooke always got the guys, she was friends with almost everyone. Peyton was more reserved when it came to talking to people, she's introverted, likes rock music, you're Brooke, they're always at her house, whether it's to learn more about the music she buys, to paint her nails and gossip or to listen to Peyton vent about her how Nathan is being an asshole to her. Brooke always knows the whole school's gossip, so it turns out there's always something between you.
Almost a week ago, Lucas Scott — Nathan's half-brother from different mothers — managed to join the basketball team, literally that boy is being flirted with by girls.
Lucas was a boy who, before the basketball team, played with some friends at River Court Park. However, in your first game he wasn't as bad as you and the two girls expected. He started out VERY bad, that was obvious but he really exceeded your expectations.
You were definitely interested in Lucas, but as it turned out, so was Brooke so much so that she made her move to get naked in the backseat of Lucas' car, which made you slightly lose your hopes for him, if you had any. Brooke is beautiful and has a great body, what would be the chances of him choosing you?
Well, that's how something really interesting begins.
There was a party today, you were in Peyton's room changing in her bathroom, while Brooke and Peyton were talking about something. Brooke chose from the three clothing options you showed her a tight, dark blue dress that reached the end of her thighs. It definitely valued your body and then you carefully left the bathroom and claps and screams came from your friends.
"Definitely gorgeous" Brooke said smiling.
"If you don't give some kisses today, the boys are blind" Peyton said laughing while Brooke nodded, agreeing with her friend.
It didn't take long for the girls to get ready, Peyton was wearing a basic black dress and Brooke was wearing a pretty pink dress.
When I arrived at the party, it was full. Some people you knew, but some you hadn't even seen in your life. It was always like that at parties, unknown people would come. The party started out pretty boring for you, Peyton was with Nathan and Brooke with any boy who showed interest and she thought it was cute. You were just drinking whatever you found in the kitchen. Until the moment you heard a voice behind you.
“Hey” Lucas said to you.
"Hi, new boy" You smiled kindly at him and he genuinely smiled at you.
“Y/n, right?” He asked, sitting next to you on the bench outside the house.
"Yes" She replied simply while looking at him in surprise and with a slight curiosity because until then, Lucas Scott had never looked at you properly.
You and Lucas talked for about thirty minutes, you got to know a lot about him, what his life was like in relation to Nathan's family, his hatred for Dan, he talked about how much he admired his mother and in return, you talked about your problems at home which resulted in both of them saying "I'm sorry" at the same time and then bursting out laughing.
"How did you become...you know...popular?" He asked out of nowhere, making the girl next to him frown and he noticed and clarified "You know, when we were in eighth grade, I remember you, braces, quiet and not known to almost anyone."
"Ah, get it. I mean, I don't know, the next thing I know I was talking to Peyton at the beginning of the year and then Peyton introduced me to Brooke and Brooke kind of introduced me to the whole school" You replied with a shrug, and he nodded.
"Get it" Lucas smiled, the kind of smile that would make any girl melt, including you.
"But how about you? How are you doing? Y'know, now being the famous guy of tree hill" She asked back as she went back to drinking the drink from the glass.
"I can't say normal, but it's not going bad" He chuckled and looked at her "You look beautiful" he added, smiling smugly at her.
Quickly, she blushed nervously and laughed embarrassedly "Thank you" she smiled embarrassedly at him.
So, you started to stare at the night full of stars, as a way to escape from facing him, but he continued staring at you blatantly. It was silent for a few minutes until you decided to look at him and say something but he cuts you off with a kiss. His lips were glued to the sky, at first you didn't know how to react, but soon you began to return his kiss. You can feel Lucas's hand slowly go to your waist and caress gently making your entire body shivered with the sensation.
Little by little, his hands went to the hem of your dark blue dress, while he started kissing your neck, you stopped saying "Lucas...we are in public" She said in a embarrassed way.
"I'm sorry" he asked, stopping quickly and then he walked away and you straightened up and sighed at what had just happened.
"It's okay, I...kind of was liking but we're in public and it doesn't feel right" she smiled at him.
"Do you want to go somewhere else that isn't so public?" he asked after a while, making your eyes widen in surprise at the courage of the question and without you wanting to, you answered him — "Yeah, totally" — Now you were in a room in the party house and locked, of course.
Lucas began to kiss you slowly, while you reciprocated, his attention went to your legs, in which his hands slowly entered your dress and he started kissing your neck and collarbone while you enjoyed and caressed his blonde hair. For a few minutes, the room was silent until he gave her butt a light squeeze and she let out a moan and he chuckled. He carefully grabbed your thighs firmly and picked you up, your legs wrapping around his waist, his hands on your thighs and your arms around his neck. Lucas walked to the bed in the room and laid you down carefully while kissing your lips quickly and full of desire.
His hands held the hem of your dress and slowly went up and soon, with his help, you were just in your lingerie set and he gave you a smile "Pretty" he whispered to you.
Your hands went inside his shirt, caressing and lightly scratching his back while he kissed your neck and caressed your hips, playing with the hem of your panties, making you whimper slightly and he pulled away and took off his shirt, exposing his muscular chest — But nothing exaggerated — Little by little he started unbuttoning his jeans and soon changing into boxers, and then you stopped him before he got any closer.
"Lucas, I... never did that" You said and he looked at you for a few seconds and approached you, carefully placing himself between your legs and whispering in your ear — "It's okay" — You frowned and became calmer, “Really?”
"Yeah. Totally, but do you still want to do it?" he asked caressing your cheeks with his left hand.
"Yeah...I want it" She smiled while the silver chain around his neck hit her collarbone, causing you to feel butterflies in your stomach and he carefully went back to kissing her neck and gently caressing her stomach while her hands still caressed his blonde hair, while she enjoyed the feeling of his touches. Then, his hands slid to her back and carefully unhooked her bra and his hands carefully took off her bra, throwing it on some corner of the bed while his hands gently caressed her breasts.
She let out a light moan and he smiled, and carefully he sucked her nipples and on the other breast, he caressed her nipples. She writhed beneath him. After a few minutes, he stopped paying attention to her breasts and gently kissed her stomach until he reached the hem of her panties and he looked at her, as a way of asking permission and she just nodded, eagerly.
Lucas's hands carefully reached the strap of her panties, but before he took them off, he brought her face closer and placed a light kiss on the fabric, causing her to let out a moan. Then, he finally pulled down her panties and threw them anywhere, just like he did with her bra. He carefully placed kisses on her thighs, while he just heard her moans filling the room. Finally, Lucas carefully planted a few kisses on her clitoris, making her catch her breath at the new sensation.
"Lucas" she moaned his name as she began to feel his hot tongue licking her pussy, causing more and more moans, her hands held his blonde hair and sometimes gave it a few tugs, until the time Lucas felt her completely wet and carefully added a finger to her entrance, causing another moan from her.
The next time his finger entered her, he felt her entire walls tighten around his finger, while he continued to stimulate her clitoris with his tongue, sometimes giving it a few sucks. With a few more moves like that, she was almost there.
"Lucas...I-" she couldn't finish, as another moan came and she ended up pushing his face further, wanting more contact.
"I know" he replied, as he accelerated the movements with his fingers and tongue, and it didn't take long for her to cum on his finger. In which, he had no shame in putting it in his mouth just to feel your tasted.
She let out a relieved sigh and smiled at him, already slightly touched, he gave her a kiss, causing her to feel a slight taste of herself.
"I'm going to go carefully" He whispered in her ear with a smile, whilw she saw the large bulge in his boxers. He carefully kissed her lips and took off his boxers, he moved his hands to his own dick, relieving it slightly and he carefully adjusted himself on her legs, he carefully positioned the head of his dick at her entrance and faced her. and said "Ready?"
"Yes," She whispered, as she clutched at nothing, anxiously.
He carefully and slowly pushed his dick inside her, she just let out a few moans of pain as she was fully lubricated for him. He stayed inside her for a while, quietly, waiting for her to get used to his size and him being there inside her.
"Okay...you can move" She smiled decidedly, carefully, he started to move his hips slowly, while his hands were on her hips, picking up momentum. When her moans slowly turned into pleasure, he increased the speed of his movements. His hips slamming against yours, his balls hitting your ass, while the room was full of moans, sighs coming from Lucas and you, however, they could also hear the loud music from the party.
Lucas continued the movement, until the moment Abby let out something similar to a low scream but in a moan and he knew what was happening "Try to hold it" he asked, wanting them to reach climax together, so she started to squeeze his dick of him inside her, causing shivers and grunts from him.
"Continue" he groaned in a hoarse voice. You obeyed and continued squeezing him "Okay...you can let go" he whispered in your ear and then, you both came at the same time.
Lucas, when he felt the sensation of pleasure invade his body, he laid his face in the crook of your neck and stayed there for a few minutes, until he carefully took his dick out of you and lay down on the bed next to you, pulling you into his arms.
"You did well...for a first time" he whispered and you let out a laugh. After a few minutes of rest, the two of you had to get dressed again and go back to the party, however, the end of the night ended with Lucas at your house.

Fic Author Self Rec
Thank you so much @alexagirlie for the tag!!
When you get this, reply with your favourite 5 fics you've written, then pass it on to at least 5 other writers.
I'm not sure if I even have five fandom fics posted 😂 So we'll see how this goes! In no particular order..
1 All of our Book's Pages Dog Eared (Equestrian!Jace x Farrier!Cregan, House of the Dragon)
Inspired by a friend's incredible fic that got me into Jacegan as a ship, a british take on hotd horsefic. My longest multi-chapter for a fandom, I'm so proud of it. Farrier!Cregan takes a temp job at the Red Keep working for world famous dressage rider Rhaenyra Targaryen. Gets more than he bargained for in the form of her eldest son...
2 Shield that Guards the Realms of Men (Gen - for now. Harwin Lives, House of the Dragon)
This was wholly inspired by the hotd season 2 trailer seeing jace and cregan at the wall, and ended up making me expand a little personal drabble about Harwin being sent to the wall rather than dying at Harrenhal. When Jace visits the wall with Lord Cregan Stark to gain favour for his mother's war, there's a familiar face waiting for him in the Lord Commander. (Planning a Chapter 2 with some Jacegan but i've not managed to get around to it yet)
3 The Princess, The Queen and the Prince Consort (Canon Divergent!Harwin x Rhaenyra, House of the Dragon, Episode rewrite)
A rewrite of that scene in 1x06, where Harwin gets to punch Crispy. Rewritten based off of a roleplay over on @scripturient-roleplay. What if Harwin and Rhaenyra had been able to marry, and he survived into the dance?
4 To The Sea We Shall Return (Canon Divergent!Harwin x Rhaenyra, House of the Dragon, Episode rewrite)
Another episode rewrite, this time 1x07, the funeral on driftmark and Aemond losing an eye. We see things go down from Harwin's POV. I had a lot of fun with this one! Again, based off of a roleplay over on @scripturient-roleplay. Rhaewin living their best lives.
I don't have anything else published, but honourable mention to the Rhaewin F1!AU that I posted here just for fun that's since become over 100 pages of google docs rambling.
As for people to tag... Idk if I know 5 writers here 😂
@cordeliacordate @archaiccotton @heliophytes @rentekren
Apologies if I've double tagged anyone! I could only think of four but I only tagged four fics 😂 ofc participation is totally optional, and if you see this and wanna do it but I've not tagged you, go for it! Just tag me, I wanna see everyone's stuff!

Sims 4 Legacy Challenge: Stranger in The Alps by Phoebe Bridgers
Heya! I like to make legacy challenges for the Sims 4 :)
This one here is based off of the album "Stranger in The Alps" by Phoebe Bridgers. I'm not done yet, but the first three gens (Smoke Signals, Motion Sickness, and Funeral) are going to be below.
Once I finish more I'll post them! There will probably be a google doc as well. If you have any pointers or ideas, please message me. I would love to hear other people's opinions.
Hope you enjoy!!
Gen 01: Smoke Signals
Talking through your emotions has always been hard, so instead you’d write about them. You lost your best friend after you got pregnant, now you focus all your attention on music and your baby. You slowly begin to rise in fame through the years, but you still have a missing piece.
Aspiration: Musical Genius
Traits: Music Lover, Loner, Creative
Skills: Two musical skills, Writing
Job(s): Entertainer (Musician Branch), AND a part-time job (Ex.- Barista)
Favorite Color: Deep Blue
Optional:
Bonus Traits: None
Lifestyles: Close-Knit and Indoorsy
Goals/Tasks (Check as Finished)
Complete “Musical Genius” Aspiration.
Master Writing and two musical skills of your choosing (Singing, Guitar, Violin, Piano, etc.).
Acquire the Close-Knit and Indoorsy lifestyles.
Have a relationship with your best friend as a young adult (which results in the heir), and lose contact until you are an elder. You can marry your best friend as an elder.
Only get pregnant/get another sim pregnant once.
Only ever have a romantic relationship with your best friend.
Get to the top of your career (Entertainer: Musician branch) while also having a part-time job.
Put all of your part-time money away for your heir. I use this one by Ravasheen.
Become a celebrity. You can quit your part-time job once you’re a three-star celebrity.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gen 02: Motion Sickness
As a kid, paychecks barely covered anything your parent needed (until they got famous, of course), so you vowed to not let your kids grow up the same. They deserve a stable income and home. You looked for stability in the wrong person as a young adult, but maybe you’ll get a second chance later on in life?
Aspiration: Goal-Oriented (Teen), Big Happy Family (Adult)
Traits: Perfectionist, Family Oriented, Loyal
Skills: Parenting, Logic
Job(s): Doctor
Favorite Color: Moss green
Optional:
Bonus Traits: None
Lifestyles: Hungry for Love

Complete “Goal-Oriented” aspiration as a teen.
Be a straight-A student as a child and a teen.
Go to college with honors.
Get to the top of your career (Doctor)
Complete “Soulmate” Aspiration.
Master Parenting and Logic skills.
Acquire the Hungry for Love Lifestyle
Have an on-and-off relationship with an adult or elder as a young adult. (Together one season, apart the next, and so on)
You must break up with them once one of you ages up/they die.
Date a new sim afterwards to complete your aspiration for.
Only have children as an old adult and/or elder.
Have at least 3 kids.
Become good friends with your children.
Become best friends with the heir.
Have a movie night with your whole family once a week.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gen 03: Funeral
Your parents are your best friends, and you simply cannot imagine life without them, until the inevitable happens.
When you were younger, you were this cheerful, mischievous person who had friends surrounding you, but once your parents died, things turned for the worst. Without them, you feel like you can’t speak to anyone- except for your childhood best friend, so you two move far away to live on your own far away from your memories. Writing stories about your parents helps you a lot.
Aspiration: Master Writer
Traits: Bookworm, Loyal, Loner
Skills: Writing, Gardening, Handiness
Job(s): Self-employed (Self-Published Author)
Favorite Color: Plum Purple
Optional:
Bonus Traits: Gloomy
Lifestyles: Single-and-Loving-It, Close-Knit
Goals/Tasks (Check as Finished)
Complete “Goal-Oriented” aspiration as a teen.
Have at least 5 close friends and 1 best friend as a child and a teen.
Be close friends with all of your family members.
When your parent(s) die, leave home to live with your best friend in a different world.
Once they die, you can only have a relationship with your best friend and your heir.
Never have a real job; only get money from selling books you write. Your best friend cannot have a job either- must sell what they create.
Complete the “Master Writer” aspiration.
Master writing, gardening, and handiness.
Grow a garden, and grow the death flower.

Revitalize Your Hair: Expert Keratin Treatments in Brampton Salons
In today's world, having smooth, frizz-free, and manageable hair is a dream for many. Keratin treatments in Brampton have gained popularity for lasting results that make your hair healthier and shinier. Finding the right salon for a professional keratin treatment can make all the difference for those in Brampton. Whether you're dealing with damaged or frizzy hair or want to enhance your natural shine, a keratin treatment could be the solution you've been searching for.
What is a Keratin Treatment?
Keratin is naturally found in hair, skin, and nails. However, over time, heat styling, chemical processing, and environmental damage can cause hair to lose keratin, resulting in dull, frizzy, or unmanageable hair. A keratin treatment works by infusing keratin back into hair, creating a protective layer around the hair shaft. The treatment smooths down the hair cuticle, making it softer, shinier, and easier to style.
Keratin treatments are famous for reducing frizz and improving hair texture for several months. Unlike chemical straightening, keratin treatments don't permanently alter the structure of your hair, so the effect gradually fades as new hair grows.
Benefits of Keratin Treatments
Frizz Control: One of the most significant benefits of a keratin treatment is its ability to eliminate frizz. Whether you have curly, wavy, or straight hair, keratin treatments create a sleek and smooth texture that lasts for weeks or months.
Softer, Shinier Hair: Keratin treatments add a healthy shine to your hair by sealing in moisture. After just one treatment, you'll notice that your hair feels softer, smoother, and more hydrated.
Manageability: Styling your hair becomes more accessible and less time-consuming. Keratin treatments reduce the time it takes to blow-dry and straighten your hair, and your hair will hold styles longer, even in humid weather.
Protection from Damage: The keratin coating protects your hair from heat styling tools, reducing further damage from blow dryers and flat irons. This helps maintain your hair's health over time.
Suitable for All Hair Types: Keratin treatments can benefit thick, thin, curly, or straight hair. The treatment is customizable depending on your hair texture and desired results.
Finding the Right Salon in Brampton
Brampton is home to several top-notch salons offering expert keratin treatments. However, not all treatments are the same, so it's essential to choose a reputable salon that uses high-quality products and has experienced stylists.
Here are some key factors to consider when selecting a salon:
Reputation: Look for salons with positive reviews and customer feedback. Ask friends for recommendations, or check online platforms like Google Reviews or Yelp to gauge customer satisfaction.
Certified Stylists: Ensure that the stylists are certified and experienced in performing keratin treatments. It's essential to consult with the stylist before the treatment to understand the process, discuss your hair goals, and determine which keratin treatment best suits your hair.
High-Quality Products: Not all keratin treatments are created equal. Some treatments use formaldehyde, which can be harmful to your health. Look for salons that use formaldehyde-free or low-formaldehyde options, which are safer for you and the stylist. Brands like Brazilian Blowout and GK Hair are known for offering high-quality, long-lasting results.
Post-Treatment Care: The right salon will offer advice on how to care for your hair after the treatment. To prolong the results, this typically involves using sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, avoiding certain styling products, and minimizing heat exposure.
What to Expect During the Treatment
A typical keratin treatment session takes anywhere from 2 to 4 hours, depending on the length and thickness of your hair. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of what to expect:
Consultation: The stylist will assess your hair's condition, discuss your goals, and recommend the most appropriate treatment. They may also conduct a patch test to ensure you don't have any allergic reactions to the product.
Shampoo: To remove dirt, oil, or product buildup, your hair will be thoroughly washed with a clarifying shampoo. This ensures that the keratin treatment can penetrate your hair evenly.
Application: The keratin solution is applied evenly to your hair in sections. Depending on the formula used, your hair will be left to absorb the product for 20-30 minutes.
Blow-Dry: Once the keratin has been applied, your hair will be blow-dried straight. This helps to seal the product into your hair.
Flat Ironing: The final step involves flat ironing your hair in small sections to lock in the keratin and give your hair a smooth, sleek finish.
After the treatment, your stylist will provide instructions on how to care for your hair. You must avoid washing your hair for 72 hours to allow the keratin to be set fully.
Post-Treatment Care Tips
To maintain the results of your keratin treatment, it's essential to follow a few post-treatment care guidelines:
Use Sulfate-Free Products: Sulfates can strip your hair of keratin, so switch to a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to extend the life of your treatment.
Avoid Heat Styling: Avoid using heat-styling tools to prevent further damage to your hair. When necessary, use a heat protectant spray.
Limit Washes: The more you wash your hair, the quicker the keratin will wear off. Aim to wash your hair no more than two to three times per week.
Protect Your Hair: If you swim often, use a protective cap or apply a leave-in conditioner before entering the water to prevent chlorine or saltwater from weakening the keratin treatment.
Conclusion
A keratin treatment can be a game-changer for those looking to transform their hair into a smoother, shinier, and more manageable version of itself. Brampton is home to several expert salons offering high-quality keratin treatments tailored to your specific needs. By choosing the right salon and following proper post-treatment care, you can enjoy long-lasting results and give your hair the revitalization it deserves. Contact us for more infomation.

I’m realizing that typos that ended up autocorrecting into being from me typing so fast so if anything ever doesn’t make sense lmk LMAO
SHSH IM SO EXCITED FOR THAT OTOYA FIC childhood friends too good…like there’s just so much potential in that trope I feel jsjshdjsja
LMAOOO imagine the diff between Karasu being all sappy and Otoya being like “just get a side chick” I can see it
LMAOOO loser Nagi slander I laughed but fr!! Bye whipped Karasu is gonna be the end of me guys
NO FR HEAVY ON THE BAROU??? Like wdym red flag he’s literally husband material get out. But honestly he has one of the best growth mindsets imo too like he’s willing to learn from his mistakes and even kinda learns to communicate??? Also I have no idea how much of the light novel snippets you saw but essentially he’s a mamas boy (YEAHHHH) and basically helped around the house since he was 7 to help his mom out while his dad was working he def would have sm respect for his partner….also because he has two little sisters I feel like he’d grow to be protective over them for sure too….we need more people spreading green flag karasu agenda though like no this boy his bf material marriage material fr LMAO I forgot but he landed himself on the top 10 “would want to date irl” ranking list in Japan I think LMAO as he should
I’m gonna lose my mind when that match gets animated fr where’s that meme pic that’s like “I liked this before it was famous” that’s literally us….like we are the OGs LMAOOO
I NEED THE SISTER REVEAL SO BAD TOO I’m begging that he gets a light novel chapter and we see her OR we get one of those panel snippets again where we see her watching the match livestream (like Chigiri and Kunigami’s sisters or Aryu’s parents) actually you’re so right can someone just reveal everyone’s family members rn likeee I’m dying to see more of their lives outside of soccer too…and BABY NAGI FR I feel like that’s a lot of coping from me but baby nagi…..I need that visual (imagine he had one of those fuckass bowl cuts at some point in time too LMAOO then got too lazy to ever get a haircut again which is why it is the way it is now)
DHJSSH TAKE YOUR TIME!! I’ll be here patiently waiting for your next masterpiece…trust I will be reading those non-BLLK pieces regardless although I might have less commentary if I’m unfamiliar with the series LOL but I am very excited for the hioris works too and hollyhock….and my reqs…and POTENTIAL PEREGRINE COMEBACK??? Guys….prayers have been answered I love a good stream of content I can’t wait to read everything fr (seriously was in a drought for so long this is like paradise LMFAO)
Also I saw that nagireo post and I’m with you LMAO secret third option is that they suddenly become very static together…I’m ngl it’s kinda hard being not a fan of nagireo because er. Ok I’m sure not everyone is like this but many of the vocal fans on social media are uh. Not as receptive to constructive discussions…yeah…I’ll leave it at that LMAO
ALSO PAUSE NEW PFP?? I LOVE IT SHSHS NAGIS SO CUTE LMAOO
-Karasu anon
HAHAHA dwww i’m pretty good at deciphering things 🫡 but i will keep you posted if i’m ever lost fr 💖 i also make a lot of typos LMAO it’s okayy
CHILDHOOD FRIENDS TO LOVERS WITH OTOYA TRULY IS THE MOST ELITE COMBO ‼️ i am so excited omg…like i’m abt to make this man suffer so bad 😰 i think he’s going to be a lot like karasu where he’s in love w reader the whole time BUT unlike karasu he has no idea that he is?? LMAO that probably makes no sense but i hope it does once i write it
otoya suggests karasu gets a side chick and he’s so offended that we get a second version of that dramatic ass nagireo breakup but it’s the tabieita breakup w karasu leaving otoya for yukimiya (otoya does NOT gaf and they’re back together in like one day max)
LOSER NAGI SLANDER ALWAYS 💖 he’s my special princess ofc but if i don’t lovingly make fun of my favs who will??
YESS the ln snippets was what i was referring to when i said he canonically respects women!! the way he stepped up to help out his mother and whatnot vindicated me so bad…like i KNEW he was a green flag and that just affirmed it!! the way he was so sad that his mother was working alone while taking care of two little kids 😕 barou truly would treat his partner so well and i agree he’s v willing to learn from his mistakes even if he’s cocky!! he’s also lowkey kinda shy i feel 😭 like when he was eating dinner w isagi during second selection after they beat reo kuni and chigiri LMAOAOA also i think out of everyone he and isagi have the healthiest rivalry — they go crazy on the field as one does but off the field they support each other and help each other out tbh. i think off field barou is so diff from his on field nonsense that it can be hard to see how ideal he is 👆🏻
SAME WITH KARASU ACTUALLY!! yeah on field he’s kind of a jackass and yeah he says random bullshit to hiori but as someone who has a younger brother i can 100% confirm that that’s just how teenage boys talk to one another 😭 and it completely does not correlate to how they are in normal company!! karasu based on hiori’s light novel works sooo hard to keep up w school, sports, and friends, PLUS he plans for his future and is tall & good looking…that truly is the kind of man you marry 🤭 i think for characters we don’t know super well (basically anyone but isagi) people just look at how they behave on the field and judge them on that but realistically they’re not going to be like that in a relationship
WE TRULY HAVE BEEN HERE!! not going to gatekeep because i need more tabieitaken fans to make more content but like…we saw the potential early on 🫡
I NEED TO SEE EVERYONE’S FAMILIES AGREED…manifesting karasu and otoya get light novels and we get to see their siblings then 🤞🏻 BABY NAGI WAS PROBABLY SO CUTE AND ROUND AND SQUISHY i bet he had fluffy hair back then too…if they give him a bowl cut i’ll cry it’s not nagi without his little bird’s nest cloud hairdo
it’s funny actually the non-bllk pieces are requests for fics based on a fic i wrote?? like they’re requests for original characters of mine 😭 which is like so crazy to me but also rlly flattering i guess HAHAHA i think you will enjoy the hiori reqs!! one of them is similar to one of your reqs for him so i might combine them a bit hehe 😏 BROOO I NEED TO GET BACK ON PEREGRINE I MISS WRITING FOR NAGI (i say that as if nagi has even made it to main character status yet 💔) the next bit is focused more on how y/n and reo became friends because we know from the future that they’re superrrr close but atm y/n like. hates his ass 😓 their platonic relationship is v special to me though because they truly go through everything together!! kind of a spoiler not really though but because he’s denied her attention before he’s denied soccer, y/n is almost like reo’s nagi before he meets nagi himself?? which is def going to switch around a lot of dynamics in a fun way. the good news is y/n is a lot more headstrong + better at communicating than nagi so there will be no dramatic y/nreo breakup scene 😭 no promises about y/n and nagi though 😈
NAGIREO FANS ARE TERRIFYING BRO THAT’S WHY I DIDN’T TAG THAT POST W ANYTHING!! like ok i get it your ship has sooo much evidence and backing and whatnot IDGAF it’s boring and i don’t like what it does to my favs (being nagi and reo themselves 😭) it’s my opinion but i promise i’m not homophobic or anything?? like what…idk i also feel like a large portion of the fandom likes nagireo and if they don’t it’s because they either don’t like nagi or don’t like reo which i’m in neither camp i just don’t prefer them as a combo!! i don’t think they’re good for one another but they’re also not toxic in an interesting way (because trust i’ll eat up a well done unhealthy relationship KDFHSJJS)…GIVE ME BACK NAGIBAROU 🙏🏻 GIVE ME BACK REO AND ZANTETSU 🙏🏻 or ykw make some new groups!! let reo be friends w like. aryu or smth 😭 or like karasu and nagi seemed to be hanging out at the arcade when all of them were there!! show me more of their vibe together (because honestly it’s working rlly well in epinagi)
NAGI IS THE CUTEST I LOVEEE HIM i may have a new theme now but he remains in his place of honor as my number one and therefore remains as my pfp this time 🗣️

KIERAN CAMPBELL is based on KING CANDY from Wreck-It-Ralph. He is a 44 year old GIFTED HUMAN, RACETRACK & TEAM OWNER, and uses he/him pronouns. He has the power of GLITCHING.
Important History
competitive doesn't even begin to cover kieran campbell. from the moment he was born, life itself had been a competition and he was the one who had to win. yes, had. there was no other option in his mind. being the best was what drove him - quite literally
for his whole childhood, the way he acted with everyone swung between two very different kinds of personalities, so much so people genuinely thought he had a twin
it was hard to know in any given moment which kieran you would get and it added an air to him that people were either afraid of or respected - sometimes it was a little bit of both
formula 1 fell into his lap early in life when he easily became one of the best racers in the world. he was ruthless on the track and sometimes a bit of a firecracker but he had a secret up his sleeve - he was able to glitch
of course, he couldn't be too obvious about it but every now and then he'd use his power to his advantage to finish first. though some might have considered that to be cheating, kieran didn't. he was blessed, it was a gift, why shouldn't he use it?
it came as no surprise that his need to be the best at any cost would eventually bite him in the ass and it did in the form of a career-ending crash.
but no matter, there's no way everything in his life is going to be taken away - enter owning a team. he's still the one in charge, even more so than ever and he is thriving.
showing up in evermore didn't stop that either, he created his team and his dream is still alive. he's very protective of that dream and won't let anything get in the way of becoming the most famous name in the sport
at the end of the day, kieran sucks and he's only looking at for number one which is him. he only cares about protecting himself and his team…as long as his team continues to make them the best in the world. Or the best in the world if they could leave
though at his core he is really dark and manipulative, he doesn't like appearing that way. no sir, he loves his salmon color. bright like a predator in nature to warn potential prey of the danger that they've stumbled upon. only in this situation, if you've seen the salmon, it's too late
originally hated his glitching power when he realized he could do that because it felt like a defect, something he should hide but once he realized he could take advantage of it to win, it was all good but now he's on the lookout for other glitches
has the biggest sweet tooth in the world which seems off for him but truly it makes sense once you get to know him. He always leaves room for dessert and no day is finished until he's had something sweet
kieran cares a lot about how he looks and appears to those around him, it's all about appearances so he only wears designer and constantly makes sure his hair is always in place
absolute pun king. in a way you'd think would take away from how menacing he is and yet? somehow it makes it all so much worse. he seems approachable based on how light he can be but it changes in a second
fake friend central. does he have real friends? yes, but it's hard even for him to know exactly who those people are and a lot of them start off as people he can get something from
APPEARANCE
Face Claim: matt czuchry
Height: 5'11"
Build: athletic
Eye Color: dark brown
Hair Color: sandy brown
Piercings: n/a
PERSONALITY
Positive Traits: driven, intelligent, confident, innovative
Negative Traits: controlling, pretentious, arrogant, sadistic
Likes: being the center of attention, formula one racing, the color salmon, clever puns, hoarding money, rare wines, being better than everyone else
Dislikes: threats to his team, stupid rules, people doubting his ability, losing quite literally anything, silver medals, putting your faith in worthless people, being ignored
Phobias: atagelophobia
Hobbies: racing, buying and selling drivers, making puns
Aesthetic: freshly pressed salmon suits, a well-placed mask, putting yourself first no matter the cost, tangled webs of lies, burning rubber as you peel out of a parking lot, playing favorites with every person you know, crowds cheering your name, vaguely threatening smiles

Father: kit campbell
Sibling(s): kara campbell ( younger sister ), kai campbell ( younger brother ), kevin campbell ( younger brother ), katherine campbell ( younger sister )

These are not all free options (although the paid options are sometimes "deeply on sale" or "first playthrough is free" options), but I have really enjoyed the following:
1) Choice of the Deathless
Battle demons and undead attorneys, and win souls to pay back your student loans! At the elite demonic-law firm of Varkath Nebuchadnezzar Stone, you'll depose a fallen god, find romance, and maybe even make partner, if you don't lose your own soul first.
This is set in a fascinating faithpunky necrolawyer universe, and you don't need to have read the books to get it. It's fun and interesting! The setting is a real delight to explore. The game has a lot of replayability, and a fair number of interesting paths you can choose to go down.
2) A Study in Steampunk: Choice by Gaslight
The game is afoot! In a world of gaslit streets, mysteriously long-lived foreign nobles, and master criminals, will you defend your Empire from spies or overthrow it from within? Advocate science and reason or learn forbidden magic? Romance men, women, both, or neither? End as a healer, a freedom fighter, a vigilante, or a traitor? The fate of the Empire is in your hands!
You play as Watson to the Holmes-expy in this story. But you're not limited to sticking around with him, though he is pretty great! You have many, many interesting and very different paths to play through here. The magic is interesting as well, and the world is well-realized. This story has some of the best character writing of any of these that I've played -- really moving in places. Even the bad ends you can get are great and made me feel things. I've replayed this game a fair few times, and it's been interesting every time.
3) Fallen Hero: Rebirth
Become the greatest telepathic villain Los Diablos has ever known! Once you were famous; soon you will be infamous. That is, unless your old friends in the Rangers stop you first. Juggle different identities and preserve your secrets as you build new alliances and try to forget the friendships you've left behind.
Speaking of great character writing, this game has a ton of really interesting depth to it, and the relationships in it are interesting, too. What does it actually mean to pursue power gained at the expense of others, particularly when you're facing your former teammates who don't know it's you? This game is VERY focused on masks and identities and who you are in each, and what it might cost you to maintain multiple selves. Lest the superhero thing scare you away, I myself am incredibly bored by Marvel superheroes and this is NOT that. It also has a sequel that's pretty good!
4) Tally Ho
Only a perfect servant can solve a perfect mess! Being the perfect gentleman's gentleman or lady's lady doesn't make you an angel. Can you untangle your employer's knottiest problems with elegance and unruffled grace?* As the valet or lady's maid of Rory Wintermint, you'll go head to head with recalcitrant aunts, light-handed houseguests, manage a fox hunt and corral exotic birds!
You are the Jeeves to your employer's Wooster. This game is charming, fun and funny, with a ton of different paths to explore. And it's funny with depth and heart, too; just an overall a good time playing it, whatever path you choose. There are a bunch of paths, romantic and not, to choose from, and they're all a blast.
And if you don't mind going a little more old school, where you are typing in commands to explore the story, I really enjoyed these:
5) Blue Lacuna
Blue Lacuna is among the largest text-based interactive stories ever produced, a full-length novel and adventure game in one. As a wayfarer, you will find new worlds to explore, complex characters to befriend or anger, choices to make that affect the fate of worlds, and a story whose ultimate meaning and resolution is defined by you.
You are called to travel between worlds in times in need, though for each world you gain, you may lose what you leave behind. In this new world, you find yourself on a mysterious island with a mysterious inhabitant. Evidence of a strange past lies all around you – what happened here? Who is your companion, if he is even that? What does it mean to leave your thumbprint on the scales of this timeline?
Blue Lacuna really blew my mind when I first played it. It has a different feel than the first four I linked, which are more modern. It feels less like a game with Bioware-style conversation trees and much more like being in an interactive novel where you are the one deciding what the themes of the novel are, and the game adjusts to help you tell that story. It's got some really handy features that make using the text parser pretty easy even for people who haven't played old-school interactive fiction much.
6) Toby's Nose
A murder most foul has been committed and Sherlock Holmes is on the case. You are his dog.
I include this one not because it's remotely like large-scale narrative interactive fiction a la Wayfarer, but because it brings me joy. You play as Sherlock Holmes' dog smelling your way to the truth. It's the kind of story game where the most fun is had by fucking around and interacting with everything that sounds fun just to see what bits of story you uncover. A sumptuous experience.
Over the last few days, I've played and enjoyed Wayfarer and A Tale of Crowns. But. Is there like, any good Interactive Fiction that's complete?
#this question activated my trap card#anyway interactive fiction is HUGE and contains many cool things#especially if you're willing to try the games that give you a text box instead of a radio button! i love the Choice of Games model that#stuff like Wayfarer and A Tale of Crowns draws heavily from but interactive fiction has so much cool stuff outside of that too#like there's a game where the core mechanic is that you have a tool that can change objects by swapping a single letter#use the tool and bam the pile of counterfeit money on the table becomes a counterfeit monkey that scurries inconveniently up the wall#you - a spy - must use this tool to escape an island where your cover has been blown#and so on. i love interactive fiction so muhuhuuch

Things You Should Know About Depression Treatment
Statistically speaking, chances are that you, or someone you know, has been diagnosed with depression, either now, or at some time in the past. With the changes in the world, along with all the other issues relating to depression historically, it's a growing trend. Of course, just being diagnosed is not the end of it. Once you know that you're depressed, you still need to find effective depression treatment, which can be a tricky process. If you're battling to find depression treatment, or just don't know where to start, here are a few ideas for you.
Acknowledge Your Disease
Depression is a disease, just like a cold, the flu, or any other. Of course, if you pretend you don't have it, it will simply become worse over time. For this reason, the first step in effective depression treatment is to acknowledge the problem, banish denial, and keep an open mind. Once you've done that, it's a short step to treatment, and management, or even a cure. Remember, its undiagnosed depression, in nearly ninety percent of suicide cases, which acts as a catalyst. Best Psychiatrist in Jaipur
Look At All the Options
Conventional treatment for depression consists mainly of therapy, accompanied by anti-depressants; however, depression treatment can include many other approaches and therapies. Natural medicines, such as herbal remedies may help, as may amending your diet or exercise programs. While these may not replace conventional therapy, and any alternative therapies you choose to try should be passed by your physician too, they may help give you the results you need. A little research into the topic of treatment can make a lot of difference!
Exercise, diet, and even natural remedies and treatments can all play a part in an effective holistic treatment for your depression, and will certainly not do any harm. Adding a few more alternative therapies to your depression treatment will not do you any harm, and might just help a little.
Speak Out
Keeping your depression to yourself is a very bad idea - remember the old saying, a problem shared is a problem halved. Drawing away from your support structure is often a symptom of depression, but isolation plays a big part in the development of depression, and drawing away will be counterproductive to your depression treatment, compounding your problems. Rather reach out, whether to friends, family members, or even clergy or medical practitioners.
Another good idea, if you are suffering from depression, whether you've sought formal treatment or not, is to find a support group. This could be a real life group in your area, or online. Even a depression helpline can be of benefit to your depression treatment, and many of these options are available twenty four hours a day. Remember, depression is not only active during working hours!
Remember - You're in Good Company
Chances are, you're embarrassed about your depression, or feel that you need to hide it from your family, friends, and peers. The truth is though, that at one time or another, most people will receive depression treatment - it's one of the fastest growing diseases in the world! Note that I've called it a disease? That's exactly what it is - you're not crazy, or losing it. Like a cold, or a broken leg, it's treatable, and perfectly okay to be depressed. Psychiatrist in Jaipur
Some of the most famous people in the world have been depressed, so you're certainly not alone. Actors, authors, politicians and artists have all been struck by depression over the years, and yet, most of them, the ones who sought effective depression treatment at least, went on to even greater heights - and so can you!

Random Long Post About Charon!
This is random, but I feel like fans often don’t take into consideration what Professor Rowan says during the Rotom event. I think his words actually make it very clear that Charon was the kid who wrote the diary and shines some light on Charon’s motivation for acting like a jerk to Rotom. I’ll explain why I believe this: “Ah, imagine finding you here! You must be eager to fill your Pokédex to be searching even here. What am I doing? I visit a professor I know in Eterna every so often. He tells me intriguing rumors of rare Pokémon sightings and such.” This part isn’t particularly relevant (though I do sort of wonder if the Professor Rowan visits is actually Charon himself), but this next part definitely is: “A Pokémon that slips into electric appliances, you say… Hmm… That is somewhat off from what I’ve heard about it. Hmm… This is what I’ve heard. Long ago, there was a Pokémon that merged with a toy robot. Should that Pokémon be recognized as a new species or not… Debates over the issue were about to start when they were rendered moot. The very topic of discussion–the Pokémon-infused robot–disappeared…” Okay, so the first thing that is really important to note here is that Rowan doesn’t have the exact same information as the player. This means Charon has done research that he was keeping to himself, and fits in with Charon writing that he wants his Rotom research to be a “secret.” But we also learn here that other scientists were at least introduced to Rotom somehow despite this. Now, as for the “topic of discussion… disappeared” part–because Charon’s lab is secret, these words don’t refer to Rotom leaving the lab. Instead, they must refer to Charon putting it in that lab to keep it a secret. This might seem odd at first–why would Rotom have been introduced to scientists in the first place at all then…? But I actually think this all makes sense. Here’s a stripped-down version of the backstory based on all these details: –Charon obtains information about Rotom “by pure chance,” as he writes in the journal we know for a fact is his. –Other researchers somehow knew about it and were going to start debates about it. –Rotom is locked away in the lab by Charon so that he would get all the credit for describing it. –Rotom eventually leaves the lab. This still haves a lot to be desired. Is Charon the same person who found Rotom as a child? It seems that way, since the speech patterns and diction are the same. But then how and why did other researchers learn about Rotom in the first place? Why did Charon want all the credit only after this happened? Here is where analyzing Charon’s character makes everything clear. Obviously, Charon is a greedy person. Specifically, he seems to be someone who is pragmatic to the point of being a cynical jerk. He desires money for himself and his team, but we know from his dialogue that it’s because he thinks people can’t achieve anything without it. We can also see that Charon has a high opinion of himself (he says so), but it also seems like he may have a low opinion of himself at the same time. The fact that he keeps trying to assert his self-worth, brag, and explain that he has a place in Team Galactic every time he speaks in-game hints at this. Also, Charon’s own co-workers hate him. Considering his plan at the end of the game, we know that if Charon were presented with a way to make himself known to all, he would do everything he could to make that happen. He also at one point says “I like seeing children try their best,” which sounds a bit weird out-of-context, but makes perfect sense if the Rotom kid’s childhood was his. Putting together all of the information I’ve discussed, here is my interpretation, applying Occam’s Razor the whole way through, of the story behind the Rotom event: –Charon came across information about Rotom “by pure chance.” How? When it came out of a lawnmower in his childhood. –At some point, Charon was excited to tell everyone about Rotom. They were probably still close friends at this point. –Other researchers were going to start debates on Rotom after Charon gave them some information about it. –Because of Charon’s greed, desire to belong, and selfishness, he became possessive and wanted to get “all the credit.” He freaked out and locked Rotom away in his secret lab. –Everyone was confused because it had disappeared, and debates couldn’t continue. –Rotom was upset and tired of being stuck in the lab and left. I’m almost certain this is the story the writers intended.

Bunni’s comments! (is it a tad awkward that you keep sending these as submissions? have you thought about posting your thoughts on your own blog and then I could reblog them? sorry to make you go to all this trouble!)
REALLY LONG THOUGHTS BELOW THE CUT:
This is a really well reasoned theory!! I dunno if we’ll ever really be able to know what story the writers intended until we actually get this plotline expanded in a remake HINT HINT NINTENDO But it does definately seem to me that Charon = kid who had that cute backstory in that journal literally in Charon’s lab written like Charon talks and nobody else does. That seems very much like the simplest option to me, and it makes this character so much more well-developed, yet its kinda not a popuar theory.. alas... I don’t completely follow this exact sequence of events in my headcanons but I do think it fits perfectly with everything we know so far. You’re so good at analysis!!
Personally I think maybe people forget about Rowan’s few sentences at the start of the event... just cos the event is really hard to find. Practically nobody actually played this thing, I certainly never got a chance to do it until a decade later when i was able to emulate + use gamesharks. So before that I got my information secondhand through script-dumps and lets play videos, and a lot of people seem to leave out the rowan bit. A lot of people actually leave out the diary too! It seems even people who actually played the event didnt realise it was there, just grabbed their new rotom form and left. Alas poor Charon, ignored even in a meta sense! Also on Bulbapedia the script-dumps are organized weird. The actual page for the event and the Rotom Room as an area don’t contain it, its just got the diary part and the rowan part cut off separate and put on charon and rowan’s pages respectively.
Anyway, my personal thoughts + alternate interpretation to add to this!
To me it didnt sound like someone else discovered a rotom and tried to start these debates, then Charon freaked out at the competition and became paranoid. To me it sounded like Rowan was talking about someone (Charon) who started a debate and then suddenly vanished on the day it was going to take place. i dunno, just the way it was phrased seemed to come off like this was some relative unknown who popped up with this information about rotom, and then everyone assembled to hear him out. Cos specifically the ONLY information Rowan knows is that its ‘a pokemon that can possess a toy robot’, you’d think if multiple scientists were debating the existence of rotom for a long time then they’d have more info than that, info that isnt super specific to Charon’s situation. Or, at least, you’d think that if they were still researching rotom AFTER this one failed conference, they would have gained more info by now? I dunno, its hard to explain what I mean.
So, the basis for all my deductions is this interpretation that Charon (at least for that moment) had decided his rotom research was finished and wanted to reveal it. For me, the big question is... why didnt he?
WHY would Charon not want to boast about his discovery in this ‘debate about rotom’? We know at least one famous pokemon professor was gonna be there! Charon’s whole thing is (supposedly) wanting to become famous cos of rotom, absolutely no attatchment to it except as a revenue source, yep totally, no lies here. So you’d think that joining in a big debate with a bunch of high ranking scientists and making his great reveal would be.. like.. exactly what he wanted?? Why did it not happen??
My interpretation of this is kind of a mushy one linked to my general irrational decision that this man is potentially redeemable and totally has a soul. Alas, why can I never leave the grampademption train! I think that maybe this was some sort of major moment where the good and bad sides of his character clashed. REALLY CLASHED. He’s spent so many years trying to lock off himself into two mutually conflicting boxes, the innocent kid who sees this pokemon as a friend and the bitter cynical old bastard who wants to become famous off it. And now he has to choose, and it led to a complete mental breakdown! He initially chose money over rotom, he was gonna go ahead with the presentation. But then his better side won out and he cancelled it at the last second. He got cold feet, being scared of losing his best friend. Maybe he was actually going so far as to do some sort of morally repugnant deal, he was gonna sell rotom off to the highest bidder and never see it again? Or it’d have to be dissected as the first specemin of a new species, or locked up forever and experimented upon? Or maybe its just simply.. when you only have one friend in the world you kinda wonder if they’d want to keep you around if they found another friend. Maybe he thought rotom only needed him because of his research, maybe he thought it would become just as greedy as him if it got the chance? Maybe he thought that it would leave him if he let anyone else know it existed, which is what led to his growing paranoia and decision that his research was perpetually ‘not done yet’. (Cos seriously, what you see of his lab and stuff seems pretty finished???)
So that’s my interpretation of why he and rotom ‘vanished’ at that point, but then there’s the question of how they ended up separated. this is now going into complete fanfic territory, I dont really have evidence for any of it. In my image of how this whole scene would go down, mid-freakout Charon would have snapped at rotom and it led to an argument that ultimately resulted in like... triple decker bonus back of Regrettable Decisions. Charon’s been shown to kinda dig himself further into his own grave whenever his plans go wrong. So here we go, scene is set with Charon suddenly grabbing everything and running the fuck out the fire exit, five seconds before the meeting is about to start. From rotom’s perspective, it has NO IDEA what is going on, it just listens when he says to get in the pokeball. And now we have Charon in the position of having NO CLUE how to explain this all when he opens that pokeball again, he’d never just be honest about his feelings. Hell, he’s such an emotionally stunted guy wrapped up in his own neuroses, i don’t know if he’d even be honest about his feelings to HIMSELF! He just sitting here having a panic attack like ‘why did i do that?? I was about to become rich??’ Giant neon sign flies overhead saying ‘YOU HAVE EMOTIONS’, he ignores it. I figure he’d also exaggerate it in his head and destroy his entire scientific career just because he thinks he’s embarassed himself too much to go back. And he’s decided that this somehow proves that being a good person will only ruin all your dreams, and you have to be as bitter as possible to succeed. this is where he went from a dubious guy who occasionally breaks the law to ‘well I’d better jump off the slippery slope forever and join a space based evil team, literally just because of One Social Anxiety Moment’. (Relateable, amirite?) And ironically everyone he met that day is literally just thinking ‘oh god what happened to that guy, is he okay?’ and would have totally understood if he just explained his damn self... So all his panic comes to a head and he decides to blame rotom rather than actually do some in-depth analysis of his own life choices. I feel bad because I don’t want to hurt my friend?? I personally value friends higher than money? No, nonsense, you’ve somehow CORRUPTED ME! How could you do this, don’t you know how important that meeting was? WAS THIS YOUR PLAN ALL ALONG??? It was my ONE CHANCE! (apparantly, according to me)
So even though he just ran away because he didn’t want to lose rotom.... he throws away rotom. (just imagine the internal screaming this man must have experienced for the next twenty years)
It was a stupid, STUPID decision based on misdirected anger that he should have been aiming at himself. Nope, can’t believe that the great charon might have made a mistake, that friendship might indeed be a thing that exists in your dried up old heart. Instead it has just proven that friendship = weakness! And now because of this you’ve turned a salvageable situation into the worst disaster possible, yet again. (Man, I feel like Charon can barely survive without rotom. Its not just his conscience but a large chunk of his common sense...)
And rotom of course has NO IDEA why its suddenly been abandoned, so it probably was a really depressing time sitting alone in its trainer’s old house, hoping he’ll eventually come back so you can apologise for something that you don’t even know what it is... And at the same time we have Charon freaking the fuck out for decades, too caught up in his own neuroses to make the very simple decision of just turning around and walking back to where he left that pokeball. And even if he got there, what would he even say? Would he actually have the balls to admit he was wrong, or would he make excuses? ‘Oh, I was just too busy to visit, so much work to do, don’t make a mountain out of a molehill’ In his darkest moments he even considers that maybe he’s wrong to regret this decision at all. ‘But I did the right thing, I don’t need rotom, I don’t need anyone, I have to sacrifice everything to be famous...’ He’s probably even managed to get all the way to the door of the old chateau before running away yet again, leaving rotom thinking it just imagined seeing him outside the window :( Its like in his past when he startled rotom and it thought it had hurt him, but this is if he didn’t chase after it and just left time frozen on that moment. Well, he wishes it was, that he could just choose any second to take back his decision and everything would go back to normal. Never that easy, though...
I APOLOGISE FOR OVERLY LONG POORLY EXPLAINED FANFIC THOUGHTS WHILE I AM SLEEP DEPRIVED ok i need to go cry over dumb grandpas and then probably get some damn rest
oh wait one last random headcanon! i think that charon’s secret lab in team galactic eterna building is actually something he only built after the big moment of abandoning his pokemon Why does Charon have a rotom lab here if he doesnt have a rotom anymore? sure it could just mean he lost his rotom relatively recently, but since my fanfic idea places it earlier in the timeline I like to think that maybe he’s made this room in case he ever gets rotom back. He made a bunch of form-machines even better than the old ones, and decorated the place all fancy, and hopes that maybe it could be at least a small apology for all the suffering he’s put his friend through. Though he doesnt understand that rotom isnt as superficial as he is, so he cant just buy back its love... He just sits in there are rereads his journal whenever he gets nostalgic, he hasnt actually done any science in there for years. Also, it would maybe explain the duplicate rotom lab in silph co in HGSS? that’s the original, and he’s tried to make his new galactic lab as similar as possible because of how guilty he feels, and how he wants to just escape that guilt by turning back time instead of actually saying sorry.
A big thing I always struggle with in writing redemptiony fics is whether I’m lessening a character’s evil and forgiving them too easily and all. I think this series of events would definately still qualify as A Total Dick Move, even if its one that actually has a reason to it other than just ‘i’m evil’, and hurt himself as much as he hurt rotom. And man its so frustrating, seriously I’m here like ‘DUDE STOP IGNORING YOUR EPIPHANIES, JUST GO APOLOGIZE’ yet I also know that if I make him do it immediately and have everything resolved without conflict it’ll be so much less of a believeable redemption arc :P so yeah believe me i still wanna slap charon just as much as everyone who hates charon does, just for different reasons XD Also he needs a hug too. But he needs to do a lot of development before he could actually earn it!
#charonnningggg ramblinggggg#oh no u unleashed the Bunni Thoughts#just imagine him standing on a cliff and a bunch of choose-your-own-adventure text boxes pop up#Option A: become famous and lose your best friend#Option B: keep best friend and sacrifice famous#he somehow picks option C and throws rotomm off the cliff#IMMEDIATE SCREAMING#You have picked: lose both#new theory: charon is so short cos he spent the next decade kicking himself#submission

masterlist || request || taglist
You weren’t supposed to be home.
Since you and Peter had moved in together two months ago, it had become increasingly difficult for Peter to keep his double life a secret. He knew that he should’ve told you earlier, but the longer he went without telling you, the worse he knew it would be when you finally found out. So he continued to keep it a secret- quietly sneaking out night after night after you had gone to bed, lying about working late, even pulling up one of the floorboards in your apartment to hide his suit- he did whatever it took to make sure that you wouldn’t find out.
It’s not that he didn’t trust you- if he didn’t he wouldn’t have taken the next step in your relationship and moved in with you- it was just that he didn’t want to worry you and- more selfishly- that he didn’t want to lose you.
Although it had been a hassle for Peter, the planned had worked... until tonight.
You weren’t supposed to be home. You were supposed to be attending some friend of your’s party. Peter didn’t bother remembering which friend, but instead that he would finally be able to sneak into your shared apartment that night without having to worry about you being awake and finding out.
However, a headache and allergy season had other plans.
Rather than partying with your friends that night, celebrating the end of the semester, you were lying on the couch in a pile of your own tissues and a warm wash cloth over your face as the television played in the background. You hadn’t bothered to text your boyfriend that you had decided not to attend the party on account of you not feeling well, instead telling yourself that he would find out when he came in the door later that evening. Slipping on your pajamas and reclining on your couch, you decided you would make the best of your night in despite the circumstances.
Peter, however, was not having nearly as relaxing of a night.
The men that he had been following for the past week and planned to encounter that night had somehow caught on to Spider-Man on their tails. Prepared to meet the masked vigilante, the group had cornered Peter in an alleyway and -as Peter recounted to Ned later that night when he came to pick him up- “got his ass kicked”.
Barely able to stand, Peter had called Ned to help him find his way home.
“Wait.” Ned said, as they stood outside the door to Peter’s apartment. “What about Y/n?”
Peter shrugged, pulling his keys out of his sweatshirt pocket that was covering the top of his Spider-Man suit.
“She’s at some party.” He told his friend, still leaning on him for support. “She um she won’t be back home until later.”
“You have to tell her soon, man.” Ned sighed, helping his friend unlock the door. “You can’t keep doing this, Peter.”
“I know, Ned.” Peter sighed. “But you know Y/n. I- I can’t tell her. She’d freak out!”
When the door finally unlocked and Peter slowly opened the door, he immediately stopped in his spot. When he peaked in the doorway and saw your favorite movie playing on the television and the lamps scattered across your living room illuminating the room he stood like a deer in headlights.
“What-” Ned began before Peter quickly clapped his hand over Ned’s mouth.
Peaking into the room again, Peter then turned to his best friend. “Y/n’s home.”
Ned’s eyes went wide as Peter pulled his hand away from his mouth. “What?” Ned whispered. “I thought you said she was going to a party?”
Peter nodded his head, worry written all over his face. “She was! I mean- that’s what I thought.” Peter said. “Shit. What- what am I going to do?”
“We could... walk... really... quietly?” Ned suggested.
Normally Peter would have argued with his friend, but you were home and that coupled with the fact that Peter could barely move on his own didn’t leave him with many options.
“Okay.” Peter sighed. “Just- be quiet and don’t step on that floorboard near the couch. It creaks a lot.”
Ned nodded and slipped his arm back under Peter’s to help him keep his balance as the two of them made their way into you and Peter’s shared apartment, slowly shutting the door behind them.
A few steps in, Peter was beginning to grow confident that they would be able to make it to your bedroom that was straight across the way without being caught- you seemed to be asleep and the television masked their quiet footsteps- that was until he heard the loud creaking sound coming from the floorboard underneath Ned’s feet.
The second he heard the loud noise, Peter snapped his neck towards Ned glaring daggers into him and Ned’s eyes grew wide, but before Peter even had the chance to say anything, you bolted up from your seat on the couch, pulling the wash cloth off of your face.
“Peter?” You asked, glancing between the pair of best friends standing behind the couch you were sat on.
You watched as Peter leaned on his friend in a black hoodie and matching sweatpants that you had never seen before. You had known your boyfriend and his best friend long enough to notice something was wrong by Peter fidgeting in his spot and Ned’s mouth dropping open while glancing at his friend.
“H- hey, Y/n.” Peter chuckled, scratching the back of his neck with his free hand. “I- I thought... what happened to the party?”
“Allergies- wait.” You said, dropping the face cloth from your hands and making your way around the couch to stand in front of your boyfriend. “Is that a black eye? Oh my God, Peter, what happened?”
“I-”
“And what are you wearing? I’ve never seen-” You asked now noticing the sweatsuit he was wearing as your eyes trailed down his body. Your voice got caught in your throat however, when you noticed the famous red footwear. That you had definitely never seen the before- at least not on him.
As soon as your eyes landed on his feet- the only exposed portion of his suit- Peter knew it was over for him.
Your wide eyes immediately met his upon looking at his feet and as soon as they did, you reached your hand up to the zipper on the sweatshirt he was wearing.
“Y/n- wait-” He attempted to stop you, but before he could you were already unzipping the sweatshirt, unveiling the Spider-Man suit underneath.
As soon as you did you stumbled backwards, falling back onto the accent table that stood against the back of your couch.
“Peter...” You said his name slowly, the air practically knocked out of you. “What-”
“Y/n-” Peter attempted to reach his hand out for you, but when he did you shook your head, maneuvering your way around the couch to have it divide the two of you.
You could barely believe the sight in front of you. It had to be a joke, right?
When you separated yourself from him, Peter attempted to leave his friend’s arms, but when he did he stumbled, doubling over in pain. Despite the state of shock you were in and the hurt you were feeling in learning that your boyfriend had kept such a secret from you for so long, you couldn’t help yourself seeing Peter in pain.
You rushed to his side, wrapping your arm around his waist to guide him to the couch. Shoving your pile of used tissues to the side with your free hand you made a space for him to sit on the couch. You helped Peter slip the black sweatshirt off of his shoulders as he groaned in pain, but when he was finally relieved of it you could see pieces of his suit tattered and blood staining the side of it.
“Peter!” You gasped, your hand rushing to cover your mouth.
“It’s really not that bad, Y/n!” He tried to assure you, sitting up in his seat while grunting. “I- I promise. Look it’s already starting to heal-“
Running your hands over the tattered pieces of his suit revealing his bruises and wounds, all you could think about was how badly it must have hurt to receive these and that this definitely wasn’t the first time your boyfriend suffered this fate to protect others.
Looking up from your boyfriend’s torso, your eyes met a scared Ned who was still stood on the other side of the couch.
“You!” You shouted, pointing at Ned.
Following your gaze that had landed on his best friend, your boyfriend desperately tried to grab your hands and reason with you. “Y/n? Y/n, it’s not his fault-”
Swatting Peter’s hands away, you continued looking at Ned.
“No!” You told him beginning to pick used tissues off of your couch and hurl them at Ned. “You knew my boyfriend was putting himself in danger every night and you didn’t think to tell me- no- you didn’t think to stop him?”
Watching as you continued to throw tissues at his best friend and Ned continued to attempt to dodge them and swat them out of the air before they could hit him, Peter snatched your wrists in his hands, stopping you in your tirade on Ned.
“It’s not his fault, Y/n.” Peter said, tugging on your wrists to force you to look at him. “He... he told me to tell you, but I was just scared. I was too afraid to tell you at first because I wanted to keep it a secret, you know? But then it had gone so long and I was just... I was just so afraid you would- I don’t know- break up with me because I kept it a secret from you.”
Still in denial and in a heat of rage that you hadn’t entirely simmered down from yet, you pulled your wrists out of his grasps and stood up, stomped over to the bathroom and slammed the door shut behind you.
As you stood over the sink, grasping the edges, you saw yourself in the mirror and took a deep breath, finally allowing the news you had just heard to sink in.
Your boyfriend was Spider-Man. He was a superhero. He went out almost every night protecting innocent people and had not only fought to save individuals in your community, but the whole world.
And he had kept it a secret from you for the past year and a half of your relationship.
As somewhat proud and mostly shocked that you were at the knowledge that he was Spider-Man, you were even more surprised that he had been keeping such a big thing a secret from you. You had shared everything with him- even your home- but he couldn’t tell you that he was Spider-Man.
As much as you hated to admit it- you could understand why he didn’t tell you. Putting yourself in his shoes, you could see why he didn’t tell you early on and why the fear of your reaction may have withheld him for telling you later on. However, you wished he could see how you felt- that even as your relationship became more serious, he couldn’t find it within him to be honest with you.
As the thoughts continued to race through your mind, you squeezed your eyes shut, squeezing the edge of the sink.
“Y/n?” You heard Ned ask on the other side, lightly knocking on the door.
You could hear your boyfriend shouting something incoherently from his seat on the couch- no doubt in too much pain to get up.
“-What? Dude! I am!” You heard Ned yell back before sighing. “Are you... are you okay, Y/n? You know, when I first found out Peter was Spider-Man-”
Opening your eyes and groaning you opened the cabinet in front of you, pulling out alcohol, cotton swabs and your package of bandaids before swinging the door open and shoving your way past Ned.
“Thanks for trying Ned, but Peter fucked up.” You said, kneeling in front of your injured boyfriend.
You watched as both of the boys’ eyes widened and they glanced at each other from across the room.
“Are you... are you mad?” Peter asked, sucking in a breath as you dabbed a cotton swab doused in alcohol on one of his open wounds.
“Uh yeah,” You said. “I’m pretty pissed off.”
“That’s why I didn’t tell you-”
As soon as the words slipped out of his mouth, Peter knew he fucked up.
“Shit! I mean-”
It was too late and he knew it.
“So this is my fault?” You asked raising your voice, pressing the cotton swab deeper into his skin, causing him to wince. You met his eyes and you could tell he was scared shitless, eyes shot open wide and his mouth pressed into a thin line- he had never seen you so angry. “I cannot believe you have the audacity to say that to me right now. You have been lying to me our entire relationship about being a superhero! I mean, I’m just thinking about the lengths you must of gone through to keep this shit a secret when you could’ve just told me. God, Peter, where did you even hide this fucking suit?”
Suddenly Peter was very interested in staring at the pile of tissues besides him rather than meeting your eyes.
“Um...” He said. “You know that floorboard that always creaks a lot near the table? I um... I pulled it up. I keep the suit and the web fluid in there so you... so you don’t see it.”
At his confession, you pulled the now blood soaked cotton swab away from his skin and threw it as his face with so much force he didn't have time to swat it away.
“Are you kidding me?” You shouted. “Do you know how many times I’ve tripped over that thing? I swear to God when I'm done fixing you up, Peter, I’m beating the both of you up!”
“For the record,” Ned said. “this is Peter’s fault.”
“Thanks a lot, Ned.” Peter grumbled.
You shook your head, grabbing another cotton swab and using it to clean another wound.
“Ned I thought we were friends.” You told him. “Remember that time you accidentally bumped into the bookshelf and ruined Peter’s Death Star? I covered for you!”
“Wait-” Peter said. “That was you? What the heck, man?”
“... Sorry.” Ned shrugged.
Sighing you tossed the used cotton swab onto the couch and took one of the band-aids out of the box beside you, placing it over one of Peter’s cuts. Looking down at his abdomen as you did it you heard your boyfriend from above you.
“Hello kitty?” He asked. “Really, Y/n? Mr. Stark is going to make so much fun of me. Aren't there... isn’t there Star Wars ones in there?”
“Yeah,” You said, brushing off your hands and standing up from your place on the floor. “Only good boyfriends get to pick out their band-aids though.”
You made your way out of the room and into the kitchen, grabbing one of the ice packs from the freezer before making your way back over to Peter. Shoving some of the tissues out of the way that were littering your couch, you sat yourself beside him, setting the ice pack on the bruise that had formed around his eye.
“I... you know... I think I’m going to go.” You heard Ned say from behind you.
“Fine, Ned.” You sighed, waving your free hand at the man. “You’re free to go... this time.”
Without another word you watched as he quickly sped out the door, shutting it behind him. When the door clicked in the lock, you felt Peter’s hand reach to grab yours that was holding the ice pack against his face, pushing it away.
“I’m so sorry, Y/n.”
Fiddling with the ice pack in your hands, you could see how distraught Peter was.
You had always known your boyfriend to be one of the kindest, most compassionate people you had ever met- especially towards you. You knew deep down that he would never do anything purposely to hurt you or with any malicious intent.
The Peter sitting in front of you- the one who you now discovered was Spider-Man- was the same Peter who always wished you a good morning first, who would be there to comfort you when you were sad and who would cry during every argument because he hated seeing you so upset and knowing he was the cause of it. Looking at him now, you could see the sadness in his eyes and the way tears were pooling at his eyelids.
“Peter...” You sighed.
“Look, I’m so, so sorry Y/n.” His said, his voice catching in his throat. “I didn’t- I didn’t want to hurt you, but I did anyway and I am so, so sorry. Just please... please don’t break up with me. I- I don’t know what I would do without you-”
Seeing the tears roll down his face and hearing the words slipping out of his mouth you felt heart practically break in your chest.
Reaching out for him, you cupped his face in your hands.
“No no no, Peter.” You hushed him, wiping a few stray tears away gently, making sure not to hurt his bruised cheeks. “I’m not going to break up with you, baby. I’m just... upset, you know? I know why you did it, but a part of it hurts because it feels like you don’t trust me-”
“Of course I trust you.” He said, cutting you off. “I just love you so much and I didn’t want to lose you.”
“You’re not going to lose me, Pete.” You smiled, pulling him in for a light kiss on his lips before pulling away. “Just... be honest with me from now on okay? Let me be Spider-Man’s girlfriend too.”
For the first time that night you watched as a smile formed on your boyfriend’s face. Seeing his sweet smile and the way it made him wince due to the bruise on his face- you knew you couldn’t continue to be mad at him for much longer. Although Peter had kept his superhero identity a secret from you, you knew now and that was all that mattered for the time being.
“I promise I’ll tell you the truth from now on. No more secrets.” He assured you. “I’ll even take you swinging around the city if you want!”
“Promise?” You asked.
“Promise.”
“Nice!” You laughed, cuddling into your boyfriend’s side. “I think I can get used to being Spider-Man’s girlfriend.”
A peaceful silence settled over the room as you rest your head against your boyfriend’s shoulder while the television droned on in the background, neither of you paying much attention to it.
“So you’re not mad?” Peter asked. “Because uh... you were kind of scary before. Ned’s probably afraid of you now.”
You laughed as you began to feel your eyes grow heavy, the allergy medication that you had taken an hour ago beginning to kick in as the tension settled in the room.
“Ned loves me, Peter, hush.” You chuckled. “And yeah, we’re good... as long as you fix that God damned floorboard you decided to pull up. I’m serious, Pete, I tripped on it like two times just today.”
“Okay, babe.” He laughed and when he did you could feel his shoulders rock beneath your head. “I love you.”
Closing your eyes, you smiled. “I love you too, Spider-Man.”

Meeting and Dating Harry Potter
(Not my gif)(Requested by anonymous)
(Harry doesn’t get enough love.)
- You and Harry first meet at Hogwarts but he isn’t really aware of your existence until around fourth year when everyone else in the school turns their backs on him.
- He’s making his way through the crowds of ‘Potter stinks’ buttons when he hears someone call his name. He almost doesn’t stop, expecting the same mocking he’d been receiving all week, but he does stop and there you are, giving him a small, kind smile and telling him that you “just wanted to wish him good luck in the tournament.”.
“I-er, thanks.” He replies awkwardly, looking at you for another quick moment before nodding and quickly retreating.
- A few days later, you were walking around the wooded areas of the school and just so happened to come across him sitting alone. You didn’t want to bother him; especially since you really didn’t know him and you sort of had a crush on the famous boy, but a twig snapped beneath your foot and he quickly glanced up at you, taking away your option of leaving before he saw you.
- Giving a quick hello, apology, and excuse for interrupting him, you moved to walk away before you found yourself turning back and asking if he was alright. It didn’t take him long before he was explaining everything to you and; calmly, ranting about the situation.
- You listen and give him a few words of encouragement before you find yourself walking back to Hogwarts with him, as though it were the most normal thing in the world.
- Little by little, the two of you grow closer and become more comfortable with each other; even though he’s sort of forming a crush on you and gets easily flustered by you.
- Probably unsurprisingly, he doesn’t just drop you when Hermione and, more so, Ron go back to being his friends. Instead, you’re welcomed into their little clique, particularly by Hermione who appreciates having another girl in the group and can immediately see that Harry has feelings for you; even if he stutteringly protests to it.
- Funnily enough, initially, he doesn’t even think to ask you to the Yule ball until you’re sitting at breakfast one day and he looks at you and a light just goes off in his head. He’s just as nervous about asking you as he would be with anyone else; probably even more so considering the fact that he’s pretty much in love with you, but he manages to keep his cool a little better with you since you’re supposed to be his friend.
“Erm, y/n? Would you like to go to the ball with me?”
- When you happily agree, he gives you a “brilliant”, his heart racing and a small smile plastered across his lips.
- Godric, the look on his face when he first saw you the day of the ball. He couldn’t keep his eyes off of you, his face turning a delicate shade of pink as you first took his arm and gave him a smile. He was so distracted by you that he hardly even noticed that he needed to start dancing with you, he only snapped out of it when you told him to take you by the waist.
- It’s after the ball that he knows for sure that he’s in love with you, and if he’s able to triumph over dragons and defeat Lord Voldemort at the age of one then he can ask out the girl that he’s fallen for, right? Easier said than done.
- Harry is pretty awful with women. He’s awkward and shy and clumsy, and it’s adorable in retrospect; and in some other cases, but it’s not exactly beneficial to the evolution of your relationship. He keeps trying to confess, keeps wondering how he’s gonna do it, tries to do it but is interrupted in some way or just can’t bring himself to actually say what he wants to.
- It isn’t until fifth year that he finally manages to do so. You’re both left alone in the room of requirement as everyone leaves after their most recent lesson. He walks over to you and the two of you talk. You ask him a few questions, make sure he’s alright with everything that’s happening and before you know it, you’re both drifting closer and kissing each other.
- It’s soft and slow, and when you pull away, he’s got this dazed sort of look on his face that gives you butterflies. He gets a hold of himself as you go to grab your things and leave, calling out to you in a quick explosion of words, asking if you’d go out with him.
- He has to repeat himself so that you can actually understand what he’d asked but once he does, a bright smile spreads across your face and his heart skips a beat as you agree.
- Due to a certain frog-faced substitute headmaster, you can’t exactly express your feelings in public, but just knowing that you’re officially his girlfriend gives him a certain sense of comfort and reassurance that otherwise wouldn’t be there.
- The girl of his dreams is finally his and he couldn’t be happier.
- Harry, in general, just isn’t the type of person to be all over you while you’re out in public. He tends to save most of his affection for when you’re behind closed doors, mainly because he’s a bit shy and easily flustered; especially by you.
- Given the fact that Harry was provided with nothing but negative attention throughout his entire childhood, he’s definitely going to be a bit awkward when it comes to affection. That being said: he loves when you give it to him and really starts to crave it after you first pay him special attention.
- Handholding. He’ll tentatively slip his hand into yours while you’re standing together or grip it tightly as you both excitedly run somewhere.
- He could genuinely hug you for hours if you let him.
- Gentle touches.
- Soft kisses.
- Quick kisses in the midst of danger or when he’s leaving to do something important.
- Kissing his scar.
- Ruffling and playing with his consistently messy hair.
- Hair petting. He’ll usually stroke his hand down/through your hair as you kiss.
- Long, loving snogging sessions. Sometimes, you’ll pull off his glasses so that you can kiss him better and he just melts.
- He loves cuddling with you; it’s one of the things that really bring him comfort. You’ll usually be the little spoon whenever you do, he’ll bury his face in your hair and wrap his arms tight around you, not letting go until morning.
- Considering the fact that he has like zero experience with girls, he usually just calls you by your name since that’s what seems most natural to him.
- Flustering him whether you mean to or not; it’s usually quite easy to do since he’s so inexperienced with girls.
- Getting mini gifts. A piece of candy here, a little trinket there, things like that.
- Dates at the Three Broomsticks. He loves kissing you and tasting the butterbeer on your lips.
- Dancing together.
- Spending time alone in the room of requirements.
- Sneaking around all the unknown tunnels and rooms of Hogwarts with him.
- Him using the invisibility cloak to come see you and sneak the two of you out somewhere.
- Study dates.
- Him helping teach you spells and defensive magic. He likes seeing that look of glee on your face when you do something right, and having the excuse to hold and guide your hand/stand close to you.
- Watching his eyes widen in shock and a smile spread across his face when you do something impressive. He’s so proud of you.
- Awkwardly and shyly reading news articles written about the two of you. Your parents have quite the reaction when they find out you’re dating the boy wizard himself.
- Hagrid gushing over and teasing the two of you. He sometimes gets a little sentimental seeing the two of you together. He knew Harry when he was such a wee little thing and here he is, all grown up and in such a lovely little relationship.
- Cheering him on at Quidditch games regardless of what house you’re in. It makes him so happy to see you rooting for him.
- Endearing sarcasm. He can be a smartass when he wants to be.
- Attempting to write to him over the summer.
- Having him stay with you over the summer or at least letting him visit for some time once you hear how he’s treated by the Dursley’s.
- Running to hug him when you’re finally reunited at the beginning of the school year.
- Being teased by Malfoy. Harry has probably almost killed him a couple of times; only stopped by the fact that Ron was holding him back.
- Hermione and Ron giving the two of you looks.
- Becoming a part of the golden “trio” and having double dates with Ron and Hermione.
- Accompanying him on adventures and quests.
- When everything starts to turn to shit around you, he may try to break up with you in order to protect you. He loves you too much to risk you getting hurt because of him.
- Standing by him, even when things go wrong and other people desert him.
- Comforting him. Harry has gone through a lot and though he won’t admit it to most people, he needs a little support. You’re his rock and he couldn’t live without you.
- He always tries his best to comfort you, even though he usually has no idea how or if his plan will work. That being said, he always just seems to know how to cheer you up.
- He’s a pretty jealous person but he tries to hide it most of the time. He hates the thought; and sight, of you with other boys and gets a bit annoyed whenever he sees you with them. He’ll be a bit passive aggressive when you go over to him, saying he’s “brilliant” when you ask what’s wrong. He just doesn’t want to lose you.
- He’s always surprised whenever you actually get jealous over him but he sort of likes it. He feels bad that you’re upset and reassures you that he only loves you but he can’t deny that it feels nice to know that you care enough about him to be jealous.
- Overprotective. After everything that’s happened to him and the people around him, he watches over you like you’re the most precious thing on earth. He’d defend you with his life if he had to.
- Harry tends to give you a sort of silent treatment when he’s mad, usually before saying something passive aggressive or harsh when you don’t really acknowledge his behavior or go to leave him alone. You’ll most likely argue until the issue is solved or until he shuts you out, either doing so by walking away in a huff or causing you to leave by his lack of responses.
- Regardless of whether you were in the wrong or if he was, he’s most likely the one to approach you. If you were in the wrong, he’ll come up to you and make some comment, trying to prompt an apology; because that’s all he really wants.
- If he’s in the wrong, he’ll feel really guilty and keep staring over at you until he can’t take it and finally asks if you can talk. He’ll ask how you are before telling you that he’s sorry and that he knows he was wrong. After he does so, he’ll ask if you forgive him/if you guys can go back to normal, smiling and kissing your cheek when you agree.
- There's quite a few I love you’s in your relationship. He loves hearing you say it; even though it flusters him, and he just feels the need to let you know how much he cares about you; especially as you get older and he loses more people without being able to let them know how important they were to him.
- The two of you will have to go through some difficult situations but he knows he wants to be with you for the rest of his life. You just need to get through this rough patch and then you can have a perfect little life together.
