Writing Patterns Tag Game
Tysm to Travvy (@officialgleamstar) for tagging me 🧡🧡🧡
Rules: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!
heart, liver, and other matters of the body: Lincoln Li-Wilson is buzzing with nervous energy all throughout their shopping date.
out of my head (when you’re not around): Taylor Swift wakes up to bright orange against the backs of his eyelids and the sensation of being held. 
in somniis, veritas: “Highness, might I have a word with you?”
don’t kiss and tell: “Liiiiiiincoln,” A familiar voice whines behind him.
(i will) stay for you: “Link,” Taylor says quietly, contemplatively.
hunter’s mark, reversed: You never forget your first kill, they always say. 
midnight (close to you): Lincoln Li-Wilson is tossing and turning in a vain attempt at sleep when his phone buzzes.
are we out (of the woods yet): Life is good for you.
dust to dust (tell me i am good enough): The silence between the two of you stretches like a rubber band, chafes like an ill-fitting starched shirt.
kiss me on the sidewalk (take away the pain): Being the main character is not all it’s cracked up to be, sometimes.
As far as underlying patterns go, i feel like the very obvious one is that I tend to establish the POV character like. Immediately. From the get-go, since the majority of these have the name of the pov character in them (even if they're not always narration of the pov character themself). It also looks like there's a slightly lesser tendency to start off things with an action of some sort - or inaction, in some cases - which I think is kinda interesting since I hadn't clocked that about my own writing before! And tend to keep things pretty short and sweet for the beginning hook (with one notable exception, but I think that's because Terry Junior's just Like That in my head lmao). All in all, pretty neat insights. Thanks again for the tag, Travvy - this was pretty fun 🥰🥰🥰
Tagging (non-obligatory, as always!): Ummm!!! @silverlistenstothings, @hey-its-puddlesock, and @catlliecal, as well as anyone else who'd like to give this a go! (And apologies if you've already been tagged 😅)

Cold hands/feet
fandom: obey me pairing: demon bros & dateables x gn!reader warnings: none prompt by anon: stumbled upon your blog and just read your hcs about the obey me guys and halloween, your writing is lovely and fun<3 ! i was thinking, how do you think the obey me bros + dateables would react with a mc whose hands and feet get easily cold? like 'dawg who let this corpse out the morgue 💀' typa cold. and even if they wear socks or gloves, it never seems to help much. instead, it turns into cold sweat so now it just feels like touching a defrosting chicken (projecting on this one) anyways, hope you're having a lovely day/night. enjoy your next 24 hours :] A/N: ty for the request and the kind words <33 this was funny to write for as i actually have the opposite problem myself, i run really warm. some of these are considerably shorter than others, sorry.
Tumblr media
LUCIFER
• Lucifer isn't a very touchy person. That and he usually wears gloves, so he'll take a much longer time to notice how cold your hands get than you might expect. The first time he notices would have to be when you initiate affection yourself, and he's in the right mood to just sit back and let you touch him.
• You're sat facing him on his lap and move your hand up to gently caress his face. It was just meant to be a sweet gesture, and it certainly wasn't anything to provoke him to jerk his head away in momentary surprise.
• "Lucifer?" You say his name, a little concerned at his reaction. He was just staring at your hands.
• "You're freezing," he stated, then met your eyes again. "Is the fireplace not warm enough for you?"
• Until you explain it's just naturally how your hands feel, he will assume that the House of Lamentation is somehow still too cold for a human, and that you, for some reason, neglected to tell him this whole time. Even when he understands the situation, he's still likely to bump up the temperature on the thermostat just in case.
• You might have felt hurt by his initial reaction to literally move away from your touch, but he reassures you he was just surprised. He doesn't actually mind it, he just wasn't sure if that was how human hands were supposed to feel.
• That, and Lucifer runs cold too. Even colder than you. You're unlikely to notice early in your relationship due to the gloves, but he perpetually feels like he's been out in the cold for far too long. You ask if it's "a demon thing" and he gives you a strange look.
• For all I've said about him not minding, do not put your cold ass feet on him if you're in bed together. You'll lose your Lucifer's bed privileges until you can prove to him you've learned from your actions and promise not to do it again.
It's a surprisingly peaceful evening in the House of Lamentation. You sit with your DDD in hand in front of the fireplace, mindlessly scrolling through your socials when you suddenly feel something freezing touch the back of your neck. You lurch forward in shock, rubbing the afflicted area as you spin your head around to catch the culprit. There stands Lucifer, a pleased smirk on his face as he casually fits his glove back on his right hand. "Lucifer!" In a split-second decision, you jump up from the couch and begin to chase after him, hand outstretched. If it's a war he wants, then it's a war he'll get.
MAMMON
• Notices pretty early on. If he still hadn't developed feelings for you by the time he noticed, he'd likely react a little too dramatically and make some sort of comment about how your hands feel like ice and will threaten you not to touch him again.
• He deeply regrets that choice of words later on though. Even if you are cold enough to make a weirdly convincing dead body, that doesn't mean he wants your affection and attention any less, but it's not like he'll tell you that straight up. He'll try to get you to start touching him again with vague (or what he thinks are vague) hints and just hope you catch on and give him what he wants.
• If you don't, he'll frustrated eventually. Will literally grab your hands and place them on his face so you're cupping his cheeks, grumbling the whole time about how stupid you are and how he has to do everything for you.
• "I thought you didn't want me to touch you again." You smile, running your fingers through his hair. He sputtered.
• "W—well, that—" He huffed and bit the inside of his cheek, shooting you a half-hearted glare. "—Whatever! That was a long time ago. Things change! And— I mean, I'm sure you've been wantin' to touch me this whole time, right? I'm just... bein' considerate."
• It's best not to call his bluff. He'll get embarrassed and pouty.
• Like Lucifer, is also lowkey concerned for your health, and isn't sure if it's normal or okay for humans to be so freezing all the time. He'll still complain all the same when the thermostat is turned up and tries his best to find a workaround, like buying you fuzzy socks and gloves to keep you warm instead so the temperature can go back down.
• Obviously, this doesn't work and just makes your hands and feet cold and sweaty. He concedes that he'll just have to deal with it.
• A perfect target for pranks using this. Suddenly shove your hands up his shirt or place your feet on his bare legs. He has such dramatic and whiny reactions but ultimately won't do anything about it — denying you affection is far more of a punishment for him than it is for you.
You sit, confused, as Mammon holds both of your hands in his. He cups them together and breathes into them, then rubs them against each other like you would do to keep yourself warm in a freezing climate. The only problem is, you're in a room with several functioning heaters. "...What are you doing?" You finally ask. He glances up at you, then goes right back to what he was doing. "I'm tryin' to help you," he says. "This'll warm ya right up, won't it? Then Lucifer can turn the thermostat back down. I'm basically boilin' alive in here!" That definitely isn't how this technique works, but... he seems too determined to stop now.
LEVIATHAN
• Same.
• Levi's hands are usually pretty clammy, but they're also always cold. If Lucifer's hands are "been outside for too long" cold, then Levi's are "freezing death-grip" cold. He doesn't even really notice it, as the rest of his body runs equally as chilly.
• It's an understatement to say Levi isn't all that into touch. It makes him extremely nervous, and the most he'll ever be able to muster without panicking internally is resting his head on your shoulder or intertwining your pinkie fingers together. Because of that, he either takes a very long time to realise or just doesn't at all.
• It's also pretty difficult for him to discern how cold your hands are when they're against his skin, which is just as frigid.
• He's unlikely to notice on his own. He'd only really figure it out if one of his brothers made a comment about your hands being freezing cold that he happened to overhear. Afterwards, he'd ask you if it was true, and would just nod and be like "huh" when you explain. Overall he doesn't care, because he can't even tell.
• Since you don't run cold in the same way he does, it still startles you whenever he puts an unexpected hand on your shoulder. It'll take some time for him to believe you when you say you only react like that because of the shock, and at first he ends up feeling bad and locking himself in his room whenever you jump away from his touch.
"Levi..." You frown, kneeling down in front of the Avatar of Envy, who is curled up and hiding his face from you. "You just surprised me, that's all..." You really hadn't intended to upset him. He tapped you on the arm to get your attention and the sudden chill made you flinch a little, that's all. But he seems to have taken it in the worst possible way. "N—no, I get it..." Levi says with that same defeated tone you were so used to from his self-deprecating monologues. "O—of course you wouldn't want to be touched by an ugly, yucky otaku like me..." "Levi, come on..."
SATAN
• Satan realised by pure chance. In the library together, you walked alongside him as he chattered away about any books he thought you might enjoy. Pulling one out from the nearest shelf, he handed it to you, telling you to read the blurb and tell him what you thought. You unintentionally brushed your hand against his as you did so.
• He didn't react immediately, waiting for you to finish skimming over the back of the book. Only then did he bring it up. "Are you cold?"
• Confused, you replied. "What?"
• "Your hands feel cold," he said. "If you are, I could lend you my jacket? I don't want you getting sick."
• As tempting and sweet as that offer was, you shook your head and explained your hands were just like that. To that, he nodded his head, apologised for assuming anything, and then proceeded to insist you take his jacket anyway. It's a romantic fantasy of his.
• He absolutely tries to buy you gloves, thicker socks and/or shoes. He's confused but understanding when you say they don't really work, and honestly doesn't mind as long as you reassure him the coldness of your hands and feet doesn't really bother you. He just doesn't want your hands to be achy and stiff all the time.
• Otherwise, he doesn't mind it. He'll hold your hand, kiss the back of your palm and allow you to be affectionate with him all the same. He might try to encourage you to shove your hands up Lucifer's shirt though. Just once.
• Don't do it to him though. Demon form instantly.
• Surprisingly, Satan usually doesn't care much about feeling your cold feet on him if you're cuddling together either, but it might irritate him if he feels it in the middle of the night when he's too tired to be fully logical.
"Satan, there's no way I'm doing that," you say as you stare down the demon in front of you, unimpressed. "He'll kill me." "He'd kill me, not you." You roll your eyes as you realise Satan clearly isn't giving up on trying to convince you to 'prank' Lucifer by shoving your hands up his shirt. With the amount of layers the first-born has, you aren't even sure if you'd be able to if you tried. "...If you do it, I'll take you to that cat cafe you liked." You eye him suspiciously. "...The one with Luna?" "The one with Luna."
ASMODEUS
• Asmo runs pretty warm. He has to, with how he spends hours out clubbing in the cold climate of the Devildom wearing as close to nothing as he can possibly get without being accused of public indecency. So you being cold to the touch is a bit of a shock to him.
• He had been begging you to let him do your nails all day until you finally caved. But just as he took your hand in his, he hesitated. "Darling, you're freezing. Why is that? My windows are all closed."
• "Oh... no, my hands are always like that."
• He pouted. "Poor thing. Well, once I'm done with your nails, how about you spend the rest of the day holding hands with dear old Asmo, hm? That should warm you right up! ♡"
• Insist all you want that it doesn't bother you or that you can't even feel it, he'll just act like he doesn't hear so he can continue to use it as an excuse to be all over you.
• It actually isn't that bad though. Being naturally warm, pressing your hold hands against his skin actually feels super nice, and he's always the one initiating it. He's impossible to scare by randomly putting your hands on him, too. He'll just react with a smile and a dirty comment.
• He'll buy or fashion fingerless gloves for you to try in the hopes it might be a little less suffocating than ones that cover your whole hand. They do work a little better, but you may or may not find them uncomfortable depending on your preferences.
• He keeps asking you to touch his back because he likes how your cold fingers feel against his skin, but only do so if you're prepared for him to let out a very exaggerated moan to embarrass you. Can and will do that shit in public.
You lean against Asmo, one hand under his shirt and resting against his side and the other clasped in his own. Every now and again he ducks his head down to place a kiss against your knuckles before resting his head back on your shoulder. The quiet added to the rare peaceful and serene moment, but just as you let your body relax... "Asmo!" You snatch your hand away when you felt him start to move your wrist further down his body. He giggles as you shove at his shoulder. "Honestly! You're insatiable! I'm leaving!" "No, no! Baby I'm sorryyy!~"
BEELZEBUB
• When Beel feels your cold hands brush up against him for the first time, he doesn't even ask questions in the moment. He straight-up drops his jacket on you right away and apologises when you nearly tumble to the ground from the weight of it.
• Beel is another one who will be very concerned. From what he's heard, humans emit natural body heat, and he's only ever heard humans be described as "cold to the touch" when they've been out in bad weather for too long or if they're dead. And he knows for a fact you've been inside all day, so... Are you dying, MC?
• He tries to believe you when you say it's natural and nothing to be so worried about, but he just can't help it. His hands are calloused and rough from centuries of playing sports, so he's hardly bothered by the chill of yours and will just hold them whenever he can to try and "warm you up".
• Is convinced that eating warm food and drinking hot beverages will help. Even if you don't actually feel cold, he might still insist you drink the hot chocolate because he's uneasy.
• He's overprotective by nature. If you can get him to loosen up and stop fretting, he'll apologise for having worried so much. He doesn't want you to be annoyed with him for overreacting about something you're so used to and consider totally normal.
• Is totally fine with you placing your hands or feet on him. He doesn't even react most of the time. You're convinced he can't feel it.
"Beel, honestly, I'm fine..." "But..." He glances between you and the cup of tea in his hands. He can't look at the drink for too long though, or he starts to feel the urge to chug it himself. He can't do that — it's supposed to be for you. "Please? A hot drink is always best on a cold day." "We're in a heatwave..." You sigh, unable to argue any further. Giving in, you take the cup from his hands. "Fine, I'll drink it. But I'm telling you, there really is nothing wrong."
BELPHEGOR
• To be blunt, he isn't a fan.
• He's been right on the cusp of falling asleep only to be startled awake by your freezing hands and feet touching him as you crawl into bed way too many times. He isn't against you cuddling him completely — you're still a good cuddle-buddy, in a "cold side of the pillow" way — but he would like you to keep your hands above his clothes and your feet to yourself. Thanks.
• Aside from Mammon, he's also likely to complain about the thermostat temperature being turned up by Lucifer, which in turn causes Beel to complain on his behalf. He keeps waking up after long naps all sweaty and hot... eugh.
• On the bright side, him being too warm means he'll suddenly switch up on your cold hands. Suddenly, he loves the feeling of them against his skin, and needs you by his side to cool him down while he sleeps.
• Joins Satan in encouraging you to shove your hands up Lucifer's shirt. Do it. Just once. Unfortunately for Satan however, Belphie is a little traitor, and will also go behind his back to tell you to do it to him right after.
• A complete hypocrite. If you pull the same stunt on him he'll make the most exaggerated pouting face you've ever seen and go complain to Beel about you. If you look at him while he's doing so, he'll give you a shit-eating smirk when Beel isn't looking.
• Gets you matching fuzzy socks. He knows they don't really work in keeping your feet warm throughout the day, but asks you to at least keep them on when you two cuddle, so you can match with him and he can avoid any rude awakenings.
The fourth-born had been absent for not five seconds when Belphie scoots over on the couch to whisper in your ear. "When Satan comes back," he pauses, stifling a yawn. "Shove your hands up his shirt. Like you're going to do to Lucifer." You give him a look. "Why would I do that?— And I never agreed to do it to Lucifer." "It'll be funny," he grins lazily. "Look, he's coming back. If you don't do it, I'll grab your wrists and do it for you, you know..."
DIAVOLO
• Diavolo doesn't just run warm, he runs hot. Almost uncomfortably so. Never expect to be able to cuddle with this guy without getting sweaty.
• When he first feels your cold hands, he either assumes humans are just naturally so frigid or goes the Lucifer route and does everything he can to increase the temperature of RAD and the palace to prevent you from being so cold. After one absolutely sweltering day at RAD, you asked Diavolo what was going on and why it was suddenly so blisteringly hot.
• "I raised the temperature as much as I could to make it more comfortable for you!" He flashed you a big, proud smile. "Come now, let me feel your hands. It should be better for you now, yes?"
• "Ah... why are they still cold?"
• He means well, really, but he's very confused. He becomes more understanding once it's explained to him and thankfully turns the temperature back down. You swore all of your classmates were seconds away from murdering one another just from the humidity alone.
• It's not like you have the guts to do it anyway — and if you did, Barbatos would stop you — but in case you were curious, he also doesn't react to the feeling of you suddenly putting your hands on him. Like Asmo, he actually thinks the chill of your fingers is quite nice.
• He might offer to hold your hands in his whenever you're sat next to him because he's fully aware of how warm he is in comparison to you. It warms you up and feels pretty good.
RAD student council meetings are usually quite dull. Unless they were in preparation for some kind of event, in which case you could expect the opposite problem — all the brothers would be bickering amongst themselves so loudly that it felt like all the energy had been drained out of you by the time you returned home. Today, however, was on the quiet end of things, and you were just waiting for it to be over. You sit next to Diavolo, cheek resting on your hand as you idly tap the table with the eraser end of your pencil. "MC." He nudges you a little. Your head shoots up, momentarily afraid he had realised you were zoning out, but he meets you with a smile and offers you his hand. Wordlessly, you place your free hand in his and he gently clasps his fist around it. Student council meetings are dull, but at least you have Diavolo to share little moments like these with.
BARBATOS
• Another man with gloves here. He knew about your cold hands from listening to the others or observing the jokes you'd play on them using it, but he's unlikely to have any personal experiences with them until much later.
• He honestly doesn't care that much. However, if you feel your hands starting to ache or go stiff, he'll hold them in his own and breathe into them to warm them up. Either that or he'll give you his own gloves for a period of time. They're already warm from him using them, so it's actually pretty nice.
• Is one of the only demons to be reasonable about it. Everybody thank Barbatos.
• Won't interfere with you suddenly putting your hands on anyone or shoving your hands up their shirt, unless it's Diavolo, obviously. He thinks their reactions are amusing. It isn't even worth trying to do to him though, he's impossible to catch off-guard. That, and his hands are also pretty cold, so he can and will do it right back.
• Encourages you to do it to Solomon and will protect you from the sorcerer's wrath afterwards.
• Not to repeat myself, but once you two further your relationship a little more, you'll discover he also quite likes the feeling of your hands on him. He isn't one to show it physically, but he'll let you know how pleasant he finds it if he's in an affectionate mood.
• Not a very cuddly person — mostly because he just never has time for it — but on the rare instance you two cuddle, he won't care much about you placing your feet on him but will pretend like he's mad about it to tease you. He'll get up and refuse to return until you literally beg for forgiveness, at which point he smiles and tells you he never truly minded, but since you asked so nicely he'll come back to the couch with you.
Spotting Barbatos in the kitchen completely focused on his baking would usually be a sign to leave him alone as to not distract him. But for you? No, it was the perfect opportunity to strike. He didn't look up as you enter the kitchen and sneak up behind him, and just when you think you may finally have the upper hand— —He grabs your wrists before you can land your hands on his skin and meets you with a smile. "Ah, MC." You pout, but he isn't moved. "How nice of you to join. Since you clearly aren't up to anything important, how about you lend a hand by fetching me some ingredients?" ...Mission failed.
SIMEON
• I have to imagine that Simeon knows a little more about the human body than most of the demons. So when he holds your hand for the first time, his first thought isn't "they could be hypothermic," it's just "oh, they have cold hands."
• He honestly doesn't mind or even really say anything about it. The most he'll do is lend you his coat on a colder day and tell you to hide your hands inside the sleeves to keep them warm — but then he's just left in that revealing body-suit thing he has, so he gets freezing instead.
• Simeon is a pretty affectionate person, so if you try to stop yourself from directly touching him too much because you know your hands are freezing, he won't be pleased.
• He places your hands back on his face, tilting his head to plant a kiss on your palm. "How much will it take to convince you I enjoy your touch?"
• To be honest, that's a pretty dangerous question to leave entirely up to you, but do what you will with it.
• You know how his shoulders and hips are completely bare for some reason? If you walk up behind him and trace a finger along his shoulder or just grab onto his hips, he jumps and does this cute shiver. He won't scold you for it, but he does get embarrassed and quiet if you do it in front of other people.
"Simeon?" You tap the back of his head. It's still early in the morning, yes, but you have to get up soon. Lucifer would have your head if you two miss a day of RAD, but your angel seems particularly sleepy this morning, as nothing seems to be waking him at all. He was the last person you would expect to have this sort of problem with... "Simeon..." You lower your hand and place your palm on his shoulder, watching him shudder from the cold. "Get up." Finally, you see him blink. He looks up at you, a yawn on his lips as he speaks. "Good morning..."
SOLOMON
• He has a spell for that.
• No, I'm serious, he does.
• It's up to you whether or not you trust this mystery concoction he gives you and tells you to drink because it will, somehow, make your body run warmer. He reassures you it's supposed to be a dark purple. It's nothing to worry about. Believe me.
• For the sake of these headcanons, I'm going to assume you have any sense of self-preservation and don't take drinks from strange wizards.
• Solomon's hands are very cold as well, but he insists they used to be warm when he was younger. You think, perhaps it's symbolic of him slowly leaving his humanity behind as the centuries go on? Either way, you both are menaces.
• If the brothers thought you were bad with shoving your hands up their shirt, wait until Solomon gets in the mix. He'll use magic to somehow enhance the freezing cold of his hands and make them shriek because it's so cold it stings. At least they love you enough to let you get away with it, though. I cannot say the same about Solomon.
• He's banned from the House of Lamentation because he had the bright idea of trying to do it to Lucifer. Any chance of making a pact with him is thrown out the window. Good job.
• It's a bad idea to try doing it to Solomon for the sole reason he will not stop until he gets his revenge — and like I said, he'll make his hands so freezing they hurt to have against your skin. Your best bet is to go to Barbatos for protection because, again, he thinks it's amusing, and his millennium-long grudge on Solomon has still not fully dissipated.
"...What happened?" You blink up at the sorcerer in front of you, who is dangling upside-down from a tree just outside the House of Lamentation. From the ropes hanging him there by his legs, you guess it must have been Lucifer's doing. He gives you a sheepish smile. "Well, since you were hesitant to do Satan and Belphie's prank on Lucifer..." Your eyes widen as you realise what he's talking about. Surely he didn't— "So, I did it instead." "..." "My lovely apprentice will let me down, won't you? Ah— w-wait, hold on! Don't leave me here!"

Prompt: “what they said back there. is it true?” + confusion + an alleyway behind a dive bar
Build a fic! ✨
seventeen masterlist | main masterlist
this blog is 18+. minors do not interact. plz & ty! (ageless/minors/blanks blogs will be blocked)
Tumblr media
The winter air bites into you as soon as you push past the dive bar’s door. The chilliness makes you want to take a U-turn back into the building, but you know the heat from indoors won’t help. Not when your source of warmth still sits inside.
People mill about the sidewalks, some dressed casually and others dolled up. No one gives you a second glance as they walk by. It makes it easy to slip into the alleyway unnoticed—hoping for some privacy as you gather your thoughts.
He’s leaving.
In one week, Jihoon will be across the country, chasing his dreams that don’t include you.
There’s a gallon of guilt sloshing in your chest from not being over the moon for his opportunity. However, it doesn’t compare to the sea you’re treading in from knowing this is it for you both.
You won’t get the chance to love and be loved by him.
Not in the way you want.
You slump against the brick wall, arms wrapped around yourself to fight the cold.
You know there are still opportunities to keep in contact, but it won’t be the same. You won’t be able to feel his arms around you or his lips on yours. Maybe if traveling wasn’t so expensive, you could find the silver lining.
“Hey.”
The familiar voice makes your head snap up; your hold on your jacket tightens in surprise.
Jihoon stands at the entrance of the alleyway with his hands stuffed in his pockets. He looks hesitant.
Emotions try to clog your throat, but you force them down so you can speak.
“What they said back there. Is it true?” you ask, voice strained.
Jihoon glances to the side briefly while he answers, “Yes.”
He slowly makes his way closer. Each step brings forth an equal weight of pain and happiness. Being around Jihoon used to bring a smile to your face instantly, but now, your heart just aches.
“You didn’t tell me,” you state.
“I did,” he answers slowly. He stops a few feet away, hands still in his pockets.
“You said you’d be gone for two weeks, not two years,” you scoff.
He exhales a deep breath. You watch it swirl in the air from the cold weather instead of seeing the mix of excitement and guilt on his face.
“It was only going to be two weeks, but they really like my works and wanted me to sign a contract,” he explains.
You turn away when you see your vision blurring. Staring at him reminds you of what you’re about to lose.
“I was going to tell you in private tonight,” he adds.
“What else were you going to tell me?” You force the question out.
“What do you mean?”
You glance at him finally. He’s standing an arm’s length away now.
“Were you going to tell me I meant nothing to you? That you’re sorry for leaving me, but I should be happy about it?”
“Fuck, Yn, you have no idea how hard this decision was for me,” he sighs out, slight frustration laced in his words.
“Enlighten me, Jihoon, because right now, it feels like you knew there was never going to be an ‘us’.”
He winces at your words, hands digging deeper in his pockets like he’s trying to find the right words to make you feel better. You already know he’ll come up empty.
“That’s not true,” he says belatedly.
“No? How long did you know about this new contract of yours? How long were you waiting to tell me ‘privately’? A week? Two?” you ask, voice raising in anger.
The more you talk, the more conflicted he looks. You know you’re not making this easy on him, but the devil on your shoulder wants him to feel the heartache you’re feeling.
“Do you not remember how two weeks ago we were on your couch and I told you I love you? I love you, Jihoon, and you’re just going to lea—”
Jihoon kisses you hard.
He holds your face in his hands, grip tight enough to keep you steady but not enough to hurt. Your heart hammers in your chest.
He puts all the emotions and messages he can’t convey into the kiss. It’s so overwhelming that you want to pull away, but you persist because it means you can have him a little longer.
The second you feel him begin to pull away, your hands reach up to grip his wrists.
He stares down, so you can’t see his face.
“I’d ask for you to wait for me, but that’s not fair,” he says. You can hear the sorrow in his voice. Although you wanted him to feel it too, you also can’t help but hurt more knowing he’s not happy. “Maybe once I get a few paychecks I can fly you out. Maybe… Maybe if you still love me when I come back, we can make it work.”
“Why can’t we make it work now?” You nearly plead.
He sighs and shakes his head. His hair tickles your forehead.
“I’m sorry,” he whispers.
You will your knees not to give out in realization. There’s no changing his mind.
Your hands on his wrists ease.
Jihoon looks up, eyes filled with desperation for you not to go.
“Let’s head back inside. You’re cold,” he murmurs, hands slipping from your face to hold your hands.
Before you can try to protest, he’s leading you back inside toward your friends.
Your body instantly feels grateful for the warmer temperature, but what’s really heating your body is Jihoon’s hand in yours.
His comforting touch spreads from your joint hands and spreads throughout your body. It’s a feeling you want to shove away, but you force yourself to not. You only have a few days left of his presence, and you should enjoy it.
Jihoon’s not a fan of PDA, but tonight he pushes his own boundaries. He drapes an arm around your shoulders, hand lazily gliding up and down your arm as he interacts with your friends.
You can’t help but lean into his firm body, allowing yourself these few hours to pretend everything’s okay.
Tumblr media
It’s self-torture to have his notifications on. It’s been almost four months since he’s left and all you can do is check his socials. He’s not too active so when he is, you cherish it.
Although you’ve tried to keep in contact, hectic schedules and time zones make it difficult. You wonder if he still thinks of you as much as you think of him.
Then as if to answer your question, your phone dings.
woozi_universefactory made a new post. Check it out!
His first official song, “Loved You First,” has been released.
While tears stain your cheeks as you listen, another ding emits from your phone.
Jihoon: 🖤
You chuckle at the simple message, wiping away your tears as your heart replaces forlorn with hope. 
He said he wouldn’t ask you to wait for him, but you should fight for what you want—for who you want. 
You push down the doubt and channel the hope you felt while listening to his song. Nothing will stop you from trying to make this work.
Not the distance, the time zones, or the schedules.
After all, who said love is easy?

SENSES - Animatic breakdown :D
Breaking down my panels because I am silly and I know some people wanted me to break down my thoughts for this. THOUGH, I still leave a lot up for interpretation!
You can watch it here :D
(Also I ended up adding subtitles to this, so you can see what panels get timed to each lyric)
youtube
(I won't go through every single panel since 30 image limit BUT please know that 99.9% of the panels have been beamed with a lot of symbolism. I'm very passionate about this subject, esp with drama scenes LOL)
Also here proving to myself I don't use ten billion close up shots HAHAHAH, ty for three days ago me for thumbnailing everything
SECTION 1- MIZRAK'S POV
yes, the first verse and first chorus is from Mizrak's perspective/second verse is from Olrox's perspective.
Tumblr media
OK, not only is the establishing shot, but it kinda establishes the major symbolism stuff I play into- hands and windows! Connection and dividers! Please keep in mind eyes are the window to the soul :D
It very much informs the entire animatic LOL.
Tumblr media
From here on out (till a certain point :3) the window acts as a divider. This shot will be important for later btw :))) Also I have a feeling Olrox would say something like "Destiny always seemed make believe."
Tumblr media
Fun fact, I ended up dropping a wip section 01 to a few people and they were all eviscerated by the part of Mizrak reaching for Olrox. This acted like a screen test for me and later informed me to focus on Mizrak's hand for a few more shots.
WHICH, BY WAY THE CHORUS BREAKUP SECTION FROM MIZRAK'S POV:
I won't delve too much into here, BUT mentally i decided that when interpreting the chorus, it was as if they were speaking to each other. It also happens again for the bridge part :DDD
SECTION 2- OLROX'S POV
Tumblr media
What was important to me was getting Olrox's POV on Mizrak, since in Nocturne we explored Mizrak getting insight into Olrox's past I went "omg, let's do the reverse!" and get Olrox to gather insight on Mizrak's past.
I've perceived Mizrak to be a lot more snappier with his co-workers and friends (take for insistence him yelling at the other monks, and being a lot more direct without fanfare with Richter and Maria in the first ep)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
PARALLELS !!! Which, the abbey is intentionally overlayed over Olrox, hahaha Mizrak needs to choose between duty and desire :))))) Also this is the sole reason why the placements are skewed heavily to one side, so they can literal mirrored version of each other and be put side by side.
Tumblr media
I actually debated myself a lot for this part, because the plan was going to go in a very different direction, however I thought having them not facing the camera, much like how they both can't seem to face themselves (or each other directly for this matter). Which I noticed was a huge thing with the character acting between those two characters.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ANOTHER CALL BACK LOL. Also I personally interpret Mizrak saying "we make our own destiny".
Tumblr media
Mizrak reaching out !!! Also, while there is no window, the wood panels are there to substitute for the division theme. Olrox is standing on that divide and Mizrak has to decide if he wants to "break" through that divider.
SECTION 3 - omg they do it
Tumblr media
OK, the scenes where they do the deed!!! By this point I feel like you guys are already getting very used to all the call-back scenes, so instead of doing a mirrored version of the first chorus scene, I decided to make all of the lyrics a contradiction to what was happening on screen. This helps for the hard cut to their argument hit sooo much harder (well i would hope sooooo LOL)
also if this shot feels familar, It's from an animation wip I'm working on that's been shelved for now because of uni HAHAH
A fight? No no, you're getting them fuc-
Tumblr media
HAND, this will be the only time they will touch hands. The only time they connect. Also I like the contradiction with the "leave me alone with all of my questions", while they literally hold hands as they do it LOL.
SECTION 4- The argument
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OK SO, me explaining these frame isn't super important, its more so a fun fact BUT going back to them using parts of the song as their "dialogue", I thought it would be fun to have them jab at each other. SO when Olrox is paired with:
"Know you fell for the person that tried to be someone they're not." Olrox is taking a jab at Mizrak for not being himself.
"You long for a feeling you'll never get back and I'm scared that you'll finally give up." Mizrak is taking a jab at Olrox for being a 'coward'.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
HA, so remember eyes are window to the soul? Well so I decided that for this argument section, I wanted to give off that the argument here was literally going to dig DEEP, so I just ended up reusing the exact same lighting/posing for them. Which is the reason why they're both dead center (and it helps make this section slightly disorientating).
Which by the way, I noticed in Nocturne, these characters don't face each other directly when being vulnerable- they're always like behind or off to their side. The only times where they've been face to face properly are these:
"You're an animal whose soul died centuries ago." "Oh, has the world abandoned you Mizrak?"
They're jabbing into each other's inner psyche, so I wanted to do that here :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes, that is right. Briefly you see Olrox's lover and Olrox's amercia fit. I thought it would be SO angsty for the earring piece to come from Olrox's previous lover. Also the past versions only start appearing during the "but the one you'll never love." :))))))
Btw I'm not 100% solid on Olrox's prev lover design, but I'd love to develop him more someday (if he doesn't get further developed season 2)
SECTION 5- Aftermath
Tumblr media
From here on out, I make the references so much more obvious! For Olrox waking up I ended up going backward of the introduction! Which as a final note, the abbey and Olrox are on opposite sides of the divide :)))
Also, around this time I had realised "oh I have 30 seconds left and I want this done now or else it'll fester and rot in my brain, making me unable to do anything else until I finish it." So instead of completely making new assets from scratch, a much more straightforward parallel was in order (and it makes it super angsty too, which double points)
Tumblr media
The ending I wanted to leave very open ended! However, I will make it known that he crosses over that divider when he balls his hands into fists, unlike how he was unable to when I first showed this exact shot.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also these are the three shots I reference back to for this final scene. Mizrak ends up crossing over that divide, much like he did when the animatic started. WHICH AGAIN, you are super free to infer and make up your own thoughts as to why these scenes were crucial for referencing.
Tumblr media
By the way, every time we have seen Mizrak from the chest down, it starts from the back, then the side, and now the front :))))
As a side note, every time I cut off a character's head (specifically eyes too) in a shot, it is very purposeful to force the audience to infer what these characters are feeling and base it off their body language alone. It is also in a way, an attempt to conceal as much as I can about what the character is feeling, playing into the theme that eyes are the window to the soul, and we, as the audience, are not allowed into their private thoughts.
anddd done :D hope y'all enjoy this info-dumping soup. I'd love to try my hand at some action boards and see how my analytical brain puts drama beats there, since at this point applying emotional connections to compositions and camera angles is second nature. So that for action hrmmmmmm we'll see AFTER UNI THO (ANNETTE IT'S YOUR TURN)
I have one assignment left for this semester, wish my uni wouldn't adamantly put down 2d focused students (or wish they'd even teach us, though honestly teaching myself is very fun and rewarding) BUT I digress!
I had a lot of fun doing this! Ty for reading this far LOLOLOL

23 asks! Thank you!! :}} 🎀
Tumblr media
what
Tumblr media
Originally I added the bandages to mirror my real hands being covered in Band-Aids when I made my sona. :0 (It was due to cat scratches and dry skin don't worry-)
Now they represent my "artist hands".... and my still really dry skin XDD
Tumblr media
Oh yeah absolutely. His crab arm is so heavy that if he falls into the water he'll sink 😬 he cant move it fast enough to help him swim to the surface.. good thing Blue Beauty is always nearby! <XD
It also takes a lot of energy to move and he deals with sore back/shoulder muscles a lot. The way the crab arm formed, its like all the muscles in his back are used to lift and operate it. When he walks around he kind'a uses it as a crutch or a third leg. His legs each take a step and then his crab arm lifts forward and clunks on the ground.
"tap tap.. CLUNK. tap tap.. CLUNK."
Despite all this though, Louis still really likes his new arm and isn't bothered much by all the hardships it brings :)

@neo-metalscottic
Thank you so much!!! :DD I'm hoping I get over this soon 🥺
As for Grim's eyes, I mention that coloring mistake in the tags of this post. It was simply a matter of me misremembering what Gengar looks like :// But I'm thinking I'll keep his white eyes anyways. He looks a lot more friendly that way :}}
THEY HAVE SPARKS?? THEY'RE INDIVIDUALS?? I thought they were just mindless clones! Man.. That makes things in the show even darker-- <XDD
And ohhh, yeah I can see it. I wonder why they decided to add him of all characters? He does have cool shades tho XDD

I simply misremembered what Gengar looks like and colored his eyes wrong :/// (I talk about it in the tags of this post) But I think I'll keep them white. He just looks so friendly and soft with white eyes.. 🥺
As for Sylveon, I like to think that tying his ribbons around others like that is his way of giving them a hug :}} Since Grim is so r o u n d, there's not many places the ribbons can comfortably tie and not be in Grim's way. His ears are the perfect spot! :}

The Parallels Nestled in Season 4's Tempus Fugit and Max
Tumblr media
Dedicated to @deathsbestgirl! Happy belated birthday~! :DDD
Season 4’s Tempus Fugit and Max present an interesting dichotomy for Mulder and Scully. On the one hand, Mulder gifts Scully a keychain that, to her, represents “hard work, and teamwork.” But on the other hand, that keychain also acts as a birthday surprise-- an explicitly celebratory gesture, and implicitly “just in case” measure.
The nuances of the "when"s and "why"s color Mulder’s action and Scully’s acceptance; and those interactions and interpretations are subsequently reinforced by the two-parter's mirror couple, Max Fenig and Sharon Graffia. 
MAX AND MULDER, PARALLELS
Tumblr media
Max Fenig is the first to be introduced in the mytharc two-parter. A returning character, he unfortunately perishes at the hands of alien and (mostly) government interference while trying to prove the existence of extraterrestrial life. Not only is he taken, then returned, then killed in a coverup, but his journey is also replicated-- without its tragic conclusion-- by Mulder later on in the episodes. 
Max dedicated his life to proving the existence of extraterrestrials-- a crazy man to the rest of the world with his spartan quarters, his paranoid memories, and his easily dismissed yet thoroughly inexplicable experiences. Season 1’s Fallen Angel underlines, highlights, then outright states the similarities between Max and Mulder. At first, Mulder thinks the NICAP nomad is a conspiracy kook; then comes to understand and empathize with his perspective, railing on his behalf: "You can deny all the things I’ve seen, all the things that I’ve discovered. But not for much longer. ‘Cause too many others know what’s happening out there. And no one—no government agency—has jurisdiction over the truth." The likeness doesn’t fade in Season 4-- Scully herself concludes the obvious, stating, “Only Max Fenig and you would appreciate living like this.”
Strangely, both men serve as a reflection of each other’s growth and lingering weaknesses. In Tempus Fugit, we learn that Max is no longer operating solo; and in Max, it’s revealed his “sister” was actually his girlfriend, a woman who believed in him and put her career and life in danger to work alongside him. (Sound familiar?) Before his death, Max and Sharon were dating, a fact Sharon hides after fearing for her life. Mulder, meanwhile, hasn’t changed his own relationship status with Scully, having only recently understood the breadth of his feelings for his partner (post here.) It’s a purposeful parallel, of course: two men driven to extremes to prove the truth of their experiences, who differ most noticeably in their romantic partnerships. When Mulder lets Sharon keep her lover’s tapes, he tells her, “Maybe they’ll be worth something someday”-- directly tying his hopeful aspirations into Max’s legacy. Mulder's original death even plays out similarly to Max's: dying after a return “flight” with the grays. (That death had to be rewritten in Requiem, then re-written again post This Is Not Happening, because of David Duchovny’s repeated returns.) 
Both men also have strikingly similar but opposite struggles. In dangerous circumstances, Max is easily taken advantage of: Fenig can sense-- and see-- the danger he’s in, but is helpless to protect himself. Mulder, meanwhile, acts rather than reacts, setting a trap for his enemy when replicating Fenig’s journey home. In romantic relationships, however, Mulder stagnates where Max flourished, fearful of his partner’s impending death but “unable” to reveal the depth of his feelings. 
Another difference then manifests: Max expresses his emotions more freely and openly, stuttering with his heart on his sleeve to Sharon, to the camcorder, to the world. While more open with his emotional expression-- with his doubts, his anger, his fears, his failings-- than, say, Scully, Mulder does not freely choose to express his deepest, most vulnerable ones (breaking down only when forced by circumstance or situation.) When confronted with Fenig’s dead body, he pauses beside it long enough to suppress his brewing pain; and when confronted, again and again, with the potential loss of his own partner, he hides his love and devotion in unspoken gestures (a birthday keychain in Tempus Fugit, a hand hold and cheek kiss and suppressed scream of agony in Redux II.) That suppression comes to the fore again when he prods Scully about Pendrell’s death, and when he deflects the serious nature of her final monologue. Mulder is too frozen in the past to reconcile “the quest” with his desire to have a simple living (like Home), or to look for life on this planet, or to walk away from “another life, another world” and still feel whole. Not yet, at least. 
In conclusion, Max succumbs to the horrors of his existence; but he dies knowing and sharing an acknowledged love between himself and his partner. Mulder survives against the odds; but continues in the erroneous belief that his survival depends on an avoidance of “a normal life”-- afraid to confess to his own partner, but afraid, too, that she will die without knowing. 
SCULLY AND SHARON, PARALLELS
Tumblr media
The parallels begin-- most obviously-- with the twin 'S's in Scully and Sharon’s name (a twin parallel to Max’s and Mulder’s ‘M’s.) While Scully is a medical-doctor-turned-FBI-agent, Sharon is an aeronautical-engineer-turned-mental-asylum patient, where her “breakdown” and escape from “normal life” dovetails to Scully’s escape from medical school via recruitment. Both women have broken laws, trespassed, and flouted authority to aid and protect their partners, with Graffia stealing alien technology and Scully staring down Skinner and other government figure heads unflinchingly (Tooms, Terma, etc.) Both women were abducted once, both women fell in love with their partners, both deny that romantic connection for self-preservation… and both eventually lose their partners to alien and government interference. 
Scully is also the person who most often talks with Sharon Graffia, prying her open one by one to get closer to the truth. This approach allows the audience to more naturally trace the similarities and compare the differences between the two women: Scully’s fierce determination and Sharon’s reticent revelations. 
The differences are as carefully written as Mulder’s and Max’s. Again, Sharon is Scully’s close-but-opposite mirror. Both are secretive about their love and relationships, afraid it will be used against them; but, again, Sharon has already avowed her heart to Max and is able to make peace with his death. Scully, meanwhile, has yet to face her own approaching death, avoiding or deflecting the topic (e.g. Mulder celebrating her birthday in dog years or Skinner strongly advising her to report to the hospital) whenever possible. Sharon is a victim who feels powerless to save herself, scared into resignation. Scully is a victim who fights for the truth, determined to save others and herself. 
THE IMPORTANCE OF THESE PARALLELS
Tumblr media
Mulder and Scully are often compared to other couples in The X-Files series: Daniel and Jessie in Firewalker, Isaac and Ariel (indirectly) in Kaddish, Kinsley and Stonecypher in Detour, David and Esther in Kill Switch, Maurice and Lyda in How the Ghosts Stole Christmas, Holman and Shelia in Rain King, Win and Cami in Arcadia, Wallace and Angela in Field Trip, CSM and Diana in Amor Fati, Max and Chastity in Rush, Phil and Ellen in Chimera, alternate versions of themselves in Hollywood A.D., lookalikes in Fight Club, and Miller and Einstein in Babylon. Max and Sharon are no exception, but they are particularly tailored to the two leads’ personalities and experiences. 
The four are alien abductees, to differing degrees. While Sharon is the only experiencer with a singular experience, Max and Mulder and Scully are victims of repeat alien interference: either abducted and returned, largely untouched (Scully), abducted and experimented on and returned (Max and Mulder), or controlled against their will (all three.) Yet, these parallels can be branched off, again: only Max and Mulder become alien guinea pigs; and only Sharon and Scully escape their abductions largely unharmed, with missing memories. 
(Scully does, however, stand apart from the other three. Her cancer and fertility struggles are a result of the Consortium’s experimentation and sterilization program, not alien activity. And, while she and Sharon escape the aliens’ wrath the first go-around, she is called back to Skyland Mountain in The Red and the Black once the grey overlords deem her-- and other abductees-- worthy of death. Further, she becomes the only person to benefit from alien interference, twice: her life is saved by the Rebels, and her fertility is restored by the same technology used to steal it in the first place, post here.) 
The coupling in Tempus Fugit and Max also provides different angles through which to view victimization and coping mechanisms. Mulder and Max soldier on, embracing their repeated traumas as part of the sum of their experiences. Sharon and Scully deflect and avoid these memories, choosing to advocate others’ causes instead of (momentarily) quailing before their own. Mulder recognizes that kinship between himself and Max; and feels that desperation and loss keenly when Max is killed. Scully and Sharon don’t need to share a kinship to feel personally responsible for the consequences of their choices: Sharon briefly gives up, shamed over her dishonesty with Mulder and Scully; and Scully feels burdened by inadequacy, unable to fully protect Sergeant Frisch or save Sean Pendrell’s life (“I realized I didn’t even know his first name.”) Further, Tempus Fugit draws diagonal lines from Max Fenig to Scully-- both abductees-- and from Mulder to Sharon-- both “partners” of alien abductees. These parallels are more blatant than plotlines written later into the show (ex. Requiem, This Is Not Happening): Sharon loses her love to the evils of the Consortium’s coverup; and Mulder witnesses her grief, knowing he, too, might suffer this same fate. When he lets her keep the tapes-- a memento of that love-- there is, perhaps, a part of him that knows he may one day have only an Apollo keychain to hold onto. 
CONCLUSION
Tumblr media
Max and Sharon, Mulder and Scully. Reaction and action, conclusions and beginnings. 
Thanks for reading~
Enjoy!

If Belos told Hunter he was a Grimwalker before leaving him to die in Worst Timeline, I can see a version of the Amnesia Timeline where when Camila wants to chase Hunter away with a bat, Vee makes the correct assumption that Hunter would just come back with more witches. So they can’t get rid of him. Camila is (understandably) Not Okay with the idea of kidnapping a kid and tying him up in their basement but Hunter JUMPS at the opportunity and BEGS to stay because he can’t bear to be away from Luz. He still doesn’t know what they want with her but at least if he’s here he can protect her.
So he begs. “Vee-“ (her eyes widen because she wouldn’t have ever expected Him to remember her name) “Vee, please, I’ll do whatever you want. You need magic right? I’m a Grimwalker. I’m MADE of magic. You can do anything you want to me I promise, I’ll be so good. If you keep me you’ll never have to worry about running out ever again, just let me Stay with Her, Please”
I think I’m just enamored with the idea of all the Nocedas looking at Hunter and going “you are the most unwell person I’ve ever met in my life and that is SAYING something”
:DDD
i love the mental image of camila being like "we are NOT tying up this strange gaunt child" and hunter being like "actually, i'm a strange gaunt adult."
vee: yeah, he's an adult. kidnapping him is okay now, right? :3
camila is like "i would have to be Out Of My Mind to let you near luz," which is about when he turns to vee and starts begging.
luz, who despite everything is still luz, is like, "no, no, we aren't gonna hurt you." [more sternly, to vee] "We Are Not Going To Hurt Him."
she hasn't even fully ruled out that hunter might be evil. but she is Not okay with torture. or anything else involving hurting people. the same instinct that got her canon self to save hunter in hunting palismen. "don't worry, i won't leave him!"
i feel like ultimately this HAS to resolve with them locking hunter in the basement, at least until they better understand his intentions. they can't let him go get a bunch of scouts for backup, they can't do anything overtly sinister for luz's sake, and they can't let him have unsupervised access to luz. for obvious reasons.
hunter is an incredibly cooperative and polite prisoner. which makes everyone involved feel worse about it.

Mk, first of all—Hiiiii! I absolutely looove your work. And also: ITS OCTOBER, CRYOLITE. WHERE IS THE NEW OGTDWV CHAPTER? I NEED MY GRAPEDUO AND LONLEY RED AND ALSO BLUE LEMONADE!! (You remember, this fanfic you haven’t updated yet? Don’t question why I have your official art saved in my photo library)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Secondly—can I just say your fan fictions are the best? Like, I was introduced to you when I read Rhapsody in Green, and then I saw and read this and now I’m more interested in superheroes than I ever was before.
Thirdly—How are you like; the only person I’ve come across who’s a writer and an artist? I feel like I’m the only one but then you exist?? What????
NUMERO QUATRO—Thank Alan I’m not the only one who headcannons Green as genderfluid. There isn’t enough Genderfluid Green in this world. Even though I disagree on the Purple being taller than Green, like… I’m sorry but short Purple calls to me. Something about Purple being the short responsible older one and Green being the tall flirty cringe younger one who dies from fall damage whilst trying to impress Purple. (If you know, you know.)
THRICE—I must eat your fanfics and run away.
Lasty—Could you draw some OGTDWV fanart while your writing? Or maybe just some snippets of like, writing or something? I dunno. It’s just trust me I understand how long chapters are to write but I need more content of this or I will spontaneously combust from lack of fluff. Or am I gonna have to reread Rhapsody in Green and Fading Frequencies again?
Holy sticks that was a lot. I have a lot to say. Sorry about me and my strangely introverted mouth. Well, anyway, Ty for reading!! Love you’re work and if you don’t update soon I have a 2318 PowerPoint presentation about how I’m going to find you and destroy you 😁 and also I would continue the fanfic instead. MMK THANKS BYEEEEEE
WOAHH HEY :DDD
Yes, I'm aware of the lack of OGTDWV updates, but school and burn out has been driving me nuts lately which is why it's been a while, BUT, I'm getting there! <3
AWWW- TYSMMM!!
I'm sure there's a lot of creators out there who are both writers AND artists. If I remember correctly, @/Purpur (if that's the right user) has a royal grapeduo au that has both art and fic, so there's that! But I definitely see what you mean.
Oh, I LOVE genderfluid Green! And I like to make Purple the taller one because- idkk?? The thought of Purple looking all tall and intimidating while still a villain and Green just simping in their shadow amused me too much, hehe
I can definitely do that, actually! Probably not now, but I can do that in the near future! (Don't worry, next chapter will be FILLED with grapeduo and fluff!)
PFFFF- that's enough motivation to keep writing. I'm only a few scenes short!! I just got to get it together!! /silly
Thanks for the long message! I don't normally get asks about my other works so this was great <3
