#Ummm they call us the overthinkers

[berylliumliumite]

hi. Ineed all your thoughts about igi right now. Riiiight now right now pls

Okay, so I've been thinking about Beryll and Denima as of recent. Actually writing smth about them from Denima's perspective which means I get to explore her beautiful mind.

Kind of off-topic but one night a year or two ago I had a dream in which Beryll n Denima considered themselves step-siblings due to the nature of sharing the same space for years after the rebellion. I have not been able to stop thinking about it but I don't usually write about it or consider it in my main headcanons, so it's around a 75% "they're best friends with a deep platonic bond" and around 25% "um they're step-siblings your honor this is just how they bond (arguing)".

I do joke and jest about how much they argue and how its mlm/wlw solidarity and/or hatred but I do think they each care deeply about the other. However I also think neither really have ever sat down to talk about their respective feelings on their friendship, so each other's "care" comes out twisted.

More rambles under the cut. Sometimes I feel like I'm just making all of this up in my head, so take it all with a grain of salt

I feel like Beryll is very solitary, tends to be quieter and is more likely to listen than talk. This goes well with Denima (and Kuiper) because I feel in my heart of hearts that Denima will talk your ear off about drama. He doesn't tend to initiate things, nor does he really understand that sometimes he has to. As such he's never told Denima how much her friendship means to him, so when he starts getting distant she views it as "losing him" because she doesn't understand that he will always be there for her and she'll always be his best friend.

On the flip side, I think that Denima is loud with her friendship. She doesn't like talking about her feelings either, I think, so Beryll has no idea she really feels betrayed until the Summer Party Arc (our favorite arc). Denima tends to talk a lot, but not about her feelings. She tends to be more involved in drama and likes to talk about what she's doing (parties, hanging out with friends, grumbling about classes).

I think Beryll and Denima used to study together, and Beryll would be very quiet while Denima would be chattering the entire time.

I recently went through the blog again to find dates for the Denima POV thing I'm writing and the Robot Redemption Arc went on in MID-JANUARY and I thought it was much earlier. So I can only imagine that around that time is when Beryll starts hanging out more with Kuiper, inviting Kuiper to sit with them at lunch when their classes permit, etc.

I imagine that Denima is really shocked- like, listen, your best friend is in agreement (or so it seems) about his roommate being annoying one day, to the point where he is aggressive towards Kuiper, but then the next day Beryll is inviting him to sit with them? And then in the months following, Beryll slowly disappears from her life, going to hang out with his roommate, who you only know as annoying because that's how Beryll used to talk about him.

I think Valentine's Day is such a surprise to Beryll because of their different viewpoints on their friendship. Denima surprises Beryll because in her mind, that's what *she* would want. A surprise. And she assumes Beryll would like one as well, because he hasn't been present recently, so he must be either lonely or having a hard time. Maybe both?

I don't think Beryll ever talks about his feelings with her. She can read his mood pretty well, not just because of the tone tags but because she just Knows what grumpy/lonely/lying Beryll looks like.

By the time Denima realizes that Beryll has completely drifted away, she views it as Kuiper's fault. Beryll doesn't even view himself as having drifted away- he still considers her his best friend, so when he gets confronted during the Summer Party Arc ofc he's surprised and angry, and not just because he's drunk. He's mad not only that Denima is yelling at him and let it take this long to tell him how she feels but also because she can't find it in herself to blame himself for the feelings of betrayal, instead blaming the one other close friend that he has.

This is why, in the chatlogs (RIP btw, they haven't been available on the blog in forever, they probably got deleted), he tells her to apologize to Kuiper. He doesn't view it as a slight against him because Denima also can't find it in herself to blame him. Instead, he's defensive on Kuiper's behalf, and if you've read the blog you know how he gets when he feels like something wrong has happened.

Kuiper, on the other hand, tends to blame himself too much. He is the subject of blame. He is always the annoying, talkative, insensitive person. That's kind of why a lot of the followers rallied around him, and not jut because he was the one with the blog. I think a lot of us felt like it was unfair- which, in a way, it was. But Kuiper also realizes at the Homestead Again (i think that's the one after the summer party, could be wrong) Arc that he needs to stop blaming himself all the time, stop talking down to himself, stop living in shame. It's not fixing anything. When you blame and hate yourself to that amount, there's nothing productive getting done.

On the subject of Denima, I think she has a reason to be concerned about her friendship with Beryll. I think the audience would have a better understanding of her if she appeared before Robot Redemption. That way, we could've seen how Beryll and her interact outside of Kuiper. How they were before. In her eyes, her best friend is def being duped by this annoying stranger. And she's a little jealous.

Ok enough talk. I'm going to add a snippet of what I'm writing for you specifically anon. No one else can look. Also it's a first draft so it might not be great. The ID below is what the text says.

ID: “Disquieted. Did you know they could assign you roommates?”

What?

“What?” she asks, her train of thought torn apart. “Yeah, if you’re alone in a…” she trails off, realizing. “Are you getting a roommate?”

Beryll sighs, glaring at his computer screen. Denima leans over and stares at his email, where the housing office had sent him a little, “congratulations! You’re not alone anymore!” with a party emoji.

“Kuiper Ursa,” she says, staring at the name on the screen. “Who the fuck is that?” End ID.

p.b x reader

summary: while paige is out with her fellow UCONN team members, you join a live to see something that could ruin everything.

authors note: ummm guys this is my first ever fic? idk but enjoy and lemme know what i can fix!! i also do not know how to use tumblr at all so ignore that. also should i make a pt. 2??

——————————————————————————

you’re kind of a loser so whenever your girlfriend paige goes out with her team you usually just stay home. your mindlessly scrolling through your phone when you get a notification ‘Ice Brady is now live!’ you decide to click on the live due to your boredom. you see them sitting around talking about their recent win and their plans for after the season. you notice everyone on the team was there except paige and azzi. you decide to just ignore it cause maybe they are in the bathroom and you don’t wanna overthink it. ice then flips the camera showing a curly haired girl and blonde girl in the corner kissing each other. ‘is that MY blonde?..’ you ask yourself. you can see the fear in ices face as she realizes what she just did, ending the live quickly. tears swell in your eyes as you try to process what just happened.

———————————————————————————

your eyes are puffy and red from you crying all night. you read the alarm clock next to you ‘1:03’ you then hear a familiar voice calling your name. the voice makes you feel sick to your stomach. just thinking about the events that unfolded made you sick. “y/nnnn” paige calls for you all singy songy. you then realize that she isn’t alone. you hear another familiar voice and your stomach drops when you realize who it is. azzi fudd. “in the room” you reply dully but loud enough for them to hear. “hiiiii babbbyyyy” paige says, smiling brightly. “hi y/n” azzi says smiling. “hey.” you respond, not wanting to talk to either of them. “i got her from here, thanks azzi.” you say taking the drunk blonde in your hands. “no problem! goodnight!” she replies.

you turn to the drunken blonde in your arms and you cant help but smile. for some reason.. even after tonight she still brings you a sense of comfort. you should hate her, but you just cant seem to bring yourself to. “I’m gonna start you a shower, okay?” you say facing the blonde. “okkkayyyy” she responds, kissing your lips. it feels weird, knowing that her lips were on someone else’s. you lead paige on the bed and she sits down and starts scrolling on her phone as she waits for her shower to be ready.

———————————————————————————

while paige takes her shower you set out some boxers and a white tank top for her to put on whenever shes done. you go to get her some tea and aspirin, so the hangover in the morning isn’t as bad. you start to zone out. letting your thoughts get to you. ‘why her and not me?’ you question, the next thing you know your crying. your actually sobbing. you were so busy with your thoughts you didn’t realize paige had already came back. “y/n?” she asked concern filling her voice. you quickly wipe your tears and respond “yes paige?” sounding squeaky. ‘shit’ you think to yourself. paige walks in the living room where you sat. “hey, hey, whats wrong?” she asks you. “nothing, paige I’m just tired.” you respond dully. she frowns at your response. “y/n, baby, talk to me please” you say nothing. “I’m going to bed.” you respond. paige frowns again, but decides to just leave it alone.

User13-all the toxic joey fan girls mad at her for taking a picture with a friend MISERABLE

User18- SLUTTTTT🤮🤮

User20- She’s only a rebound for Joe 🙄he will be back with Alex in a week tops

Sitting in the studio overthinking… as always. Scrolling through Instagram when I see that Joe posted us. I should have just liked and scrolled. But no.. my curiosity got the best of me. Once again I was getting hated on.

I knew this would happen, I wasn’t dumb. Once you start dating a top quarterback all you receive is hate and death threats. Especially when his ex girlfriend is a favorite by some of his fans. Some fans are nice and supportive of the relationship but other are just unnecessarily hateful and comparing me to Alex.Joe’s ex girlfriend.

Alex was not good for Joe at all. All she did was judge him and use him. People only liked her because she was pretty and put on a act for the public when cameras came on. When paparazzi comes she’s the first one to answer all questions and sometimes even calls them to spy on Joe.

As I write on the paper all that comes to mind is all the hate I’ve been receiving. People telling me to kill myself. People telling me that I’m a slut and that I’m only with Joe because of his money. It doesn’t help that Alex is making shady post trying to get my attention. I can’t say I haven’t seen it but I also can’t respond. It seems like anything I do now causes an uproar between the fans.

Some time goes by as I hear a knock on the door.

“Come in!”

“Hey lovie” Joe said with a smile.

“So I was just driving and wondering if u would want to come to my first game of the season before you start getting busy with performances?” Joe asked

“Umm I would love too for sure but don’t you think with all the stuff that’s going on in the media would just make it a bad time?”

Of course I wanted to go to Joe’s game. I always go to his games. This started all the way back in high school. Guess some people that say I’m using him forget I knew him before the fame and fortune.

“I mean this has happened before but that doesn’t mean it’s right. But you also shouldn’t let it affect your day to day life..” Joe said

You sigh as you think about it “ I don’t know Joe, it’s still might be too much to handle right now..”

“Ok how about this. I’ll just get you a suite that way you’ll be in the comfort of people you know” Joe suggested as he strokes hair out of your face.

“I guess that would make it a little better than being in the crowd” I said looking at the paper in front of me.

Joe knew that you had been getting hate. And he knew that this wasn’t the first time. He hated seeing you like this. Seeing you insecure and depressed all the time. You constantly reminded Joe that the hate was not his fault but he couldn’t help but feel like it was. Joe does his best to try to get you out of the house and it doesn’t help that the house has your studio in it. He’s been taking you on walks, having movie nights,and going star gazing with you. Even after all that and more it was never enough to bring you out of your slump.

Getting up in the morning was always the toughest part of the morning. I look to the side of me to see an out line of Joe’s body. A sudden sound catches my attention only for it to be joe coming out of our closet with his jersey.

“Morning baby. I got you one of my jerseys to wear to the game.” Joe said with a smile on his face.

Uhhh sure I’ll wear it but what if people see me wearing it?”

“So? Fuck em. Only thing that matters is us and our love. Who cares if somebody doesn’t like us together. As long as we’re happy that’s all that matters.” He says in a soft tone while sitting at the edge of the bed.

I sit and think about what Joe says and he’s right. I shouldn’t let people from the outside looking in dictate how I live my life or how my relationship is. I’m happy and he’s happy. And that’s all that matters.

“Alright now enough sad shit we have a game to will and people to prove wrong” He said while smiling and yanking the blanket off of me.

I get up and head downstairs to eat breakfast only to see that Joe already made it for me.

I grab the plate of food and see that there is a note next to it. I pick it up and read it.

𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴!-𝘫𝘰𝘦𝘺

All I could do was smile at him. He always finds a way to make me laugh even when I’m in the darkest of times or at the lowest of lows.

As we’re getting closer to the stadium my mind starts racing. My heart starts going 2x it’s speed and my breathing quickens. Seeing all these people makes thoughts come to my head.

"𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘧 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘢𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘴"

"𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘮𝘦"

"𝘔𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵"

I’m separated from my thoughts when I feel Joe squeezing my hand. I turn to look at him after taking a breath.

“You ok? We’re here” joe says with concern on his face.

“I’m fine just thinking..” I say while looking down at my anxiety filled leg.

“Look at me”I look at him

“Nothing that anyone says is true, you know what she did and you know you are infinitely times better than she will ever be. Don’t let these people control you. You control you.” He said in a way that sounded stern but comforting at the same time. I don’t say anything I just smile and nod this time. Sometimes you don’t need to speak, all you need is to comprehend the words being said.

Once Joe and I got out of the car I start to feel better about the situation I’m put in. I’m just going to meet up with the other girls and I’ll be fine. Everything’s going to be fine..

It’s halftime in the game and the boys are not looking so good in the game. I look at Joe and it looks like he’s looking at the suite I wave and surprisingly he waves back. Didn’t think he could even see up here tbh. I stop waving at him when all of a sudden a drink and food is thrown at the glass. It startles me so I back up a little bit. Looking in the crowd I see her. Alex with a malicious smile on her face. Fans around her yelling hurtful words at me like “slut” “whore” “snake” “home wrecker” and “gold digger”. It was another thing for this to be said online, but something about me hearing and seeing the faces in person made it so mischievous more real. Not just a mind game. A nightmare. It was reality.

As Joe is looking over plays he hears an uproar in the crowd. He looks behind him only to see the suite glass covered in food. So much that he couldn’t even see you. He wanted to go up there so badly but he couldn’t. Halftime was over at it was back on to work.

The car ride back home was quiet. The only sound being made coming from the radio in the car. Joe knew you didn’t want to talk about it. You knew that Joe wasn’t the type to talk after losing a game. But that’s not the reason he didn’t talk. He didn’t talk because he was pissed at those people throwing things at the glass and yelling things at you. He was pissed because you didn’t even get to watch the rest of the game and enjoy yourself. You went back to the car and cried your eyes out in the back seat. All Joe did the whole ride was put his hand on yours.

Once Joe put the car in the garage you walked into the house and immediately went upstairs. You got in to the shower and just cried. You cried your heart out because you knew the sound of the water would drown your sounds of sorrows.

Once getting out of the shower you put on shorts and a hoodie. You looked at the hoodie and realized it was the one Joe gave you on your very first date with him. You two were cuddling and watching the stars on his trampoline in the backyard in high school. The memory made you smile a little. You looked into the mirror and did not recognize the woman in front of you. The sad drained and depressed woman.

Walking into the room was like walking into a room with people you don’t know. Quiet and tense. I got in the bed with joe and turned with my back facing him. I was drifting off the sleep when he spoke up.

“I’m sorry” he said in almost a whisper.

“ it’s not your fault. You didn’t know what would happen today.” I say turning around to face him

“ I know but I’m the one who persuaded you to come out..” Joe said. You couldn’t see his face but you know you wouldn’t like the saddening sight.

“Even if you didn’t convince me, it was probably going to happen sooner or later.” I say reaching up to touch his hair.

“The media asked about it today. I didn’t respond how I truly felt but I got my point across.” Joe said leaning into my touch.

“What did you say?”

“I told them that what has been happening and what happened today was very disturbing and disrespectful towards you and our relationship. And that any fan that has said hurtful things to you and did what what happened today is no fan of mine.”

“That’s very sweet Joey thank you” I say with a yawn.

“Hey, how about we go on a trip during the bye week? Just you and me. No social media” He says pulling me closer.

“Sound perfect” I say drifting off to sleep.

And you know it was Bucky, you know he started it, yes yes, everyone else was calling her Smith and he was like “which smith there’s a million fucking smiths here” and when he heard the name Tallulah he just snorted and christened her Lu

Why am I so soft over the mental image of this. Do you think her eyes like widened when he asked her his first name and she was like ummm Tallulah

Aaaah nonnie yes yes, like that wide eyed worried little split second when you’re a baby and overthinking every damn thing in front of your wartime boss including the fact your name sounds like the dainty noises made by a leaping river and the swish of frills on a dress…

“I-it’s, Tallulah, actually, sir, major- Major Egan.”

“Tuh-LU-laaaah?” feeling it out with a silly look of enjoyment on his face Bucky savored it as if the word tasted nice. “Like the actress?” -no not like the actress but he didn’t mean any harm, she was used to that comparison, one more thing claimed as a first when it was ancient, “Well that’s nice, real nice, but likely to get garbled to shit over the radio, yeah?”

A3! Main Story: Part 4 - Act 16: Crossing Paths - Episode 35: The Angel's Letter

Michael: “Um, I’d like to meet Dr. Derrick���”

Nurse: “Visitors are prohibited for a while.”

Michael: “Has his condition worsened?”

Nurse: “I apologize, but I cannot answer that.”

Michael: “…”

-

Michael: “... *sigh*”

Michael: “Huh? Ah, yeah, I can’t use the stove… *sigh*”

Michael: “Whatever, I’m not even hungry…”

[Doorbell ringing]

Michael: “?”

[Door opening]

Michael: “Huh? Aren’t you– Raphael? Why are you here–”

Raphael: “Did you not notice? I live in this apartment building, too. That’s why you felt like you’d seen me before.”

Michael: “So that’s why…”

Raphael: “This letter was mistakenly sent to me.”

Michael: “A letter?”

[Michael flips the letter open]

Michael: “This—”

Raphael: “…”

Michael: “Thank you. This letter is from someone important to me. I never thought they’d send me one again.”

Raphael: “Are you eating properly?”

Michael: “Wha?”

Raphael: “You’re pale. You look like a dead man walking.”

Michael: “Ahhh… Well, I’m eating. As much as I can.”

Raphael: “What about today?”

Michael: “Umm… Not yet?”

Raphael: “Hurry and eat. What do you have that fine pot over there for?”

Michael: “Uh, well… The stove is broken so I can’t use it right now.”

Michael: “Oh, I know. Would you like to join me for dinner? If I’m alone, I’ll end up forgoing it altogether.”

Raphael: “... Alright.”

-

Raphael: “How are your studies going?”

Michael: “How… Hehe, you kinda sound like a dad. They’re going well.”

Michael: “It’s just, I’m starting to think I’m not suited to become a doctor.”

Michael: “Dr. Derrick– a doctor I owe a lot to, is currently hospitalized with a serious illness.”

Michael: “It hurts so much to know that I can’t do anything to help him.”

Michael: “I feel so helpless every time I visit him.”

Raphael: “…”

Michael: “I understand that a simple university student shouldn’t be able to do anything, but…”

Raphael: “That helplessness you feel is probably…”

Michael: “Hm?”

Raphael: “No, it’s nothing. Don’t overthink it so much. I think that you give him courage just by visiting.”

Michael: “Yeah, you’re right…”

Fred: “Oh? Michael-kun. What a coincidence.”

Michael: “Dr. Fred, hello.”

Fred: “Is this… a friend?”

Michael: “Yes. We go to the same university–”

Fred: “For a second, there was something about you both that made me think you were brothers.”

Michael: “Huh, really?”

Raphael: “…”

Michael: “By the way, is Dr. Derrick…”

Fred: “Yeah, the medication doesn’t seem to be working quite as well. I hope he’ll be able to pull through.”

Michael: “Is that so…”

Fred: “It’ll be okay. I’ll do all I can, too.”

Michael: “Thank you so much.”

Fred: “See you.”

[Fred walks away]

Michael: “…”

Raphael: “Don’t be so upset. It’s not ‘his time’ yet.”

Michael: “For some reason, when I hear it from you, it really feels that way.”

Michael: “Still, this is the first time someone’s told me I resemble someone else. I don’t have any siblings, so this made me sort of happy.”

Raphael: “I guess we have a similar aura.”

Michael: “Oh, that might be it. You’re easy to talk to, unlike other people.”

Raphael: “… Focus on your food.”

Michael: “Ah, okay.”

[Phone ringing]

Michael: “Sorry, do you mind if I—”

Raphael: “It’s fine.”

Michael: “Yes? Yes, it’s me. I understand. Ummm, let me write it down…”

Michael: “Ugh, I got mustard on me… I’m sorry, please wait just a moment.”

Raphael: “I’ll write it down for you.”

Michael: “I’m sorry, go ahead. 324-45…”

[Writing]

Raphael: “…”

Michael: “Okay, thank you very much.”

[Call hangs up]

Michael: “Thanks. It was from the repairman.”

Raphael: “I hope you can get it fixed soon.”

Michael: “Yeah. … Huh? This handwriting…”

Raphael: “What’s wrong?”

Michael: “... No, it’s nothing.”

Michael: “Um, about that letter you gave me, I first received one when I was hospitalized as a kid.”

Michael: “Every other kid I was hospitalized with had their parents with them, and I was the only one who was alone…”

Michael: “When I started feeling down, a mysterious letter addressed to me encouraged me. Ever since then, whenever I was having a hard time, a kind letter would find its way to me without fail.”

Michael: “Dr. Derrick said it was a letter from an angel. I used to be skeptical about it, but I’m starting to think that’s actually the case.”

Raphael: “… If that’s what you believe, that must be it.”

Michael: “… Thank you.”

Raphael: “What are you thanking me for?”

Michael: “Umm… For listening without making fun of me, I guess?”

-

Uriel: “I believe you’re well aware, but do not try to do anything unnecessary.”

Raphael: “I don’t plan on interfering. I simply want you to allow me to be the one to ferry Derrick’s soul.”

Uriel: “Did you listen to anything I’ve told you?”

Raphael: “I will fulfill the mission without fail.”

Metatron: “Why not? Were you not lamenting how you wished to take a break, Uriel?”

Uriel: “What are you–”

[A second soul joins the one already floating]

Metatron: “Look, those souls over yonder are waiting for you.”

Uriel: “Why at the same time… Enough, I concede. Raphael, I will entrust Derrick to you. Must I repeat myself? You’d best be carefu–”

Metatron: “Hurry along now, you two.”

Uriel: “You’ll pay for this later, Metatron.”

[Uriel descends to the human world]

Raphael: “I owe you.”

[Raphael descends to the human world]

-

[Door knocking, then sliding open]

Michael: “Hello, Dr. Derrick.”

Michael: “Dr. Derrick…?”

Michael: “No, that can’t be… Somebody!”

[Raphael materializes as feathers fall]

Michael: “Huh…? Raphael… You…”

Raphael: “…”

Michael: “I see… So you really…”

Michael: “Thank you. You’ve been watching over me all along, haven’t you?”

Raphael: “Michael, should you wish for it— No, never mind.”

Michael: “I’ll leave Dr. Derrick to you.”

Raphael: “Yeah. Don’t worry.”

[Raphael flies back to Heaven with Derrick’s soul]

-

Uriel: “The Heaven’s Law Council has decided that as punishment for revealing yourself to a human, you will be demoted for the next 100 years.”

Raphael: “Got it. And for ferrying Derrick’s soul in your stead?”

Uriel: “It was decided that you had responded appropriately. You got off easy.”

Raphael: “Thanks.”

Uriel: “Hmph. Do make sure to reflect on this.”

Metatron: “I did assume you would stay on Earth, Raphael.”

Raphael: “… I figured Michael would stop me, and decided not to. Besides, he needs someone to remember him.”

Uriel: “Good grief, you’re too emotional. You’ve let humans influence you far too much.”

Metatron: “That must be why they get along so swimmingly. I am rather envious of them for being able to live as such.”

-

Michael: “Good morning.”

Fred: “Let me welcome you once again, Dr. Michael. I’m sure Derrick is overjoyed as well.”

Michael: “… If I may, I often wondered whether I was cut out to be a doctor. Whether I’d be able to save anyone…”

Michael: “But, I made up my mind to become a good doctor because I know I have Dr. Derrick and an angel watching over me. I look forward to working with you.”

Fred: “The scope of what we can do isn’t that great. If you come to realize that, I’m sure you’ll do a good job.”

Michael: “Thank you very much.”

Fred: “Oh? There’s a feather on your shoulder— Was there a bird?”

Michael: “… As long as you come to carry me away, I’ll be at ease and do my best to help those still alive.”

Fred: “Is something wrong?”

Michael: “No, nothing at all.”

-

[Applause]

Izumi: (After receiving the baton from Spring, Summer, and Autumn, the Winter Troupe undeniably performed better than they’ve ever done before. Just as one would expect of them.)

Towa: (So this is the Winter Troupe’s acting… Amazing. I wonder if we’ll ever be able to act like this, too?)

Kureha: (How beautiful… It’s not only eye-catching, this is something I can’t do as I am right now…)

So I've definitely manifested a lot in the last few days and I'm just so proud and happy.

So at first I wanted this job right, it's called Au Pair, basically an exchange program and taking care of kids from people in a different country and when we have time off we can explore Paris or wherever we are, you know. So I really wanted to do that and I was reading up on it and then decided to get another job that pays a lot so when I go be an Au Pair ill have enough money to do anything in France (where I want to go, you can go to any country besides ur own and UK if u from US, unless I manifest it differently but I am lazy)

So I decided one day to somehow find a fun job that pays 5k a week and I think either later that day or the next day my mom sends me this job offer on indeed which was a cruise ship and I signed up right away (the pay 15 an hour but.. I KNOW I'm getting 5k a week)

I researched that and heard.. Really good things about it... But I know it's gonna be fun, only like 6 hours every day- one break day and one half day so it will be so fun and for 20k a month? Hell yea.

So the manifestations- I heard from research it was so hard to get responses in time, like so hard some people where emailing crazy to this company to only be told they missed something or they were already set, there was no communication and I was like ummm no I'm getting instant replys. And I did-

I did the interview, got the application like two hours after cuz I knew I was gonna get it and I just watched YouTube to keep it from making me overthink, the next day I got both an offer letter and the onboarding contacted me. Which mind you even the interview person said that it will take around 3 weeks to get all of that, which is crazy.

Another thing is, I need to pay for only one thing and they pay for the rest.. I didn't have any way to pay so I've been affirming that everything always works out for me and yesterday I got a text from someone and I told her about it and she set me up with something that can pay it all-its only 125.25

Mind u again, this all started Monday with a collective virtual interview with 70 people, it was the first interview of the week (cuz people signed up for it) so the fact that they emailed me so fast was definitely my doing.

So now I'm visualising and affirming how good and fun this cruise job is, because it is, why wouldn't it. I see the part where when I don't think about it so much and overthink if I'm just gonna get on a ship where they overwork you, I am a God, I control this world this world loves me and can't control me 🥰. It's crazy how easy this is tbh, ik I've heard it before and took it in but just saying I got it already and just going about my day and getting it like the same day, 😖😍 it's so awesome.

All methods I really did was my voice in tik tok telling me over and over "everything always works out for me" (only has it playing once a day for idk how long-for 2 days) and being confident, that confidence really played a role in this whole thing. I talked about the job like I already got it, talked about the planning of it before I even got the offer letter, visualized packing cool clothes in my luggage, researching onboarding advice etc.. For a while (it's been 5 days-its only 6am so 4 days lol)

As everyone says, "act as is" act as if you already have it, keep that state and watch a normal YouTube video (not on manifesting or shifting) or before bed, act as is and then go to sleep no need to get into this alpha state or void state (you are void) if you had that thing you wanted, would you try to keep awake and do all of this stuff? No you'll go to sleep like normal, you'll get it, it's that easy.

I Wish I Could Walk In Heels

AN: Didn't have time to re-read this chapter today, so sorry if it sucks. But Ada is in it, so that's a plus. Anyways, enjoy.

TW: violence, language, ummm typical Resident Evil stuff, ect. I didn't re-read so sorry. By this point, most of you should know I suck at TW's. My apologies.

September 29, 1998-

Chapter 9:

"That's what you're wearing under that coat? And I thought the shoes were bad." You said in disbelief.

She had taken her trench coat off to cover Leon with it. She was wearing a pretty red dress that clung to her figure with spaghetti straps holding it up. It was gorgeous. But so impractical that it confused you on how she was just walking around and killing zombies in that.

"What? Do I look bad?" She asked sarcastically.

"You know very well you don't look bad. I was just surprised. Aren't you uncomfortable?" You asked.

"Not really. It's hot down here. If anything, you should be uncomfortable." She motioned toward your hoodie.

She was right. It was weirdly hot down here. But you didn't want to take off your hoodie. Bloodstains be damned. This hoodie has been your protection against zombie bites. You really don't want to leave any flesh bare at the moment.

"Yeah, I am. Thanks for noticing. Can we go now?"

"Hang on, I have to call in and update H.Q." she told you. 

You waved her off and stood to the side, pretending not to hear the one sided conversation.

"I'm right outside of the facility, in pursuit of Annette …. If it's not on her. It must be in the NEST…. I have someone that can lead me to it." She briefly glanced at you, before looking away.

"Once it's in hand, I'll call for extraction." She finished, putting the radio away.

"Ready?" She asked. You glanced at Leon before nodding. "You can run, Annette. But you can't hide." She muttered.

"Alright. So doors a bust. But a vent leading toward the NEST is this way." You said, glancing at your map.

"After you." Ada said.

You both make it to the vent and you tilted your head in thought. How do you get past the giant fan?

"Any ideas on how to get in there?" You asked her.

"I may have one." Ada said as she grabbed a gadget from her purse thing wrapped around her left shoulder. Holster? It held her gun too.

She aimed and held the button, making the fan spin faster and faster, until it exploded and broke, giving us room to get through it. You gapped in disbelief. Who makes this stuff?

"Candy from a baby." Ada said smugly.

"Huh. I want one." You joked.

"In your dreams." She smirked, tucking it back in her holster and climbing up the ladder.

You climbed up after her and the two of you made your way through the long-winding tunnel.

"So, the plan is to get to Annette, see if she has the G-virus, and if she doesn't, go search the labs?" You asked.

Ada nodded. "She would have moved any virus sample left over the week. Which means it's best to get her to tell us directly so we wouldn't have to search the whole lab. But we will if necessary."

"Okay, but what is the FBI going to use the G-virus for?" 

"Evidence."

"Couldn't you just take pictures of the underground lab that we are currently standing in? Or take the files? Or look at the city above us and see all the zombies walking around? Is that not enough?" 

"It's more complicated than that." Ada snapped, done with that conversation.

The more you think about the things Ada had said, the more it doesn't make sense. Why would the FBI specifically need the G-virus? Why not any of the others? Plus, wouldn't the files laying around the entire lab be enough evidence to take down Umbrella? The emails exchanged between employees? Were you just overthinking it?

You and Ada reached the end of the vent. She used her device to make the fan spin and explode. Once the exit was clear, you climbed down. Neither of you knew exactly where to find Annette, so you just continued to make your way deeper into the NEST toward the lab. You were carefully avoiding zombies here and there as you went. 

You'll see what you encounter first. The lab or Annette.

As you finished that thought, you paused in a hallway when you saw the Tyrant standing there, coming out of nowhere, and slowly marching toward you both. 

"How the hell did it survive?" You asked as you and Ada quickly ducked and ran around the creature, continuing in the direction you were heading before.

"I'm not sure. Let's just keep going, but at a much faster pace." Ada said.

So that's what you did. Running through the maze of vents and halls, deeper and deeper into the NEST.

You and Ada went through a doorway and onto a catwalk. You ran across the catwalk and made it to a small elevator that would take you up a floor to the next catwalk. As you went down the catwalk, you saw Annette in another room through a glass window that was likely used for observations of some kind.

"Got you now." Ada said, both running through the door to the direction that Annette was just seen. "Always been good at running, Annette. I'll give you that."

Ada must know more about Annette Birkin than you did. It sounded like they had interacted in the past. You wondered what happened in those moments that garnered such hatred between the two. 

Ada began using her fancy hacking gadget to unlock the door when you heard the familiar stomps of the Tyrant. You really hated those things with a burning passion.

"Ugh." You huffed.

"Persistent bastard, aren't you?" Ada snarked.

She quickly switches something around with her gadget and pulls the lever, finally getting the door to open. Just in time as the Tyrant was right behind you. 

You ducked into the room quickly, avoiding a hit from the Tyrant. You don't see Annette. 

"Try to avoid him while I get this vent opened." Ada explained.

"Sounds like a plan." You agreed.

Ada quickly got the fan to come off, but the vent didn't fully open. You huffed and slid through the gaps and Ada followed soon after as the Tyrant went to grab her. You landed on your feet, but fumbled and tripped as you lost your balance, making you land roughly on your bruised and scraped knees that haven't really had the chance to heal the last few days..

"Fuck!" You huffed as you slowly pushed yourself to your feet. "That was close."

"Yeah. I don't think we're in the clear." Ada said, glancing over your figure as she saw you wince in pain. She raised a brow in silent question, but you just waved her off. You'll survive.

You both ran down the hall and up a set of stairs toward the direction you think Annette had gone. You approached a locked sliding door that you realized you needed a pass to get through. 

You glanced at Ada. "That thing wouldn't happen to work on this door, would it?"

"Sadly, no. Let's look around."

Looking around, you came across a room with something shining at the bottom. Could be useful.

"Hey, maybe this is something." You said as you walked down the slanted floor to grab the item from the floor. It was a pass on a wristband.

"That's exactly what we needed. Good job." Ada praised. You couldn't help but smile slightly as you handed her the pass. Feeling slightly awkward, you looked at your surroundings and away from Ada.

The room was slanted, like it was on a hill. Charred remains lie on the floor. And- Oh. Wait.

"This is the furnace room." You deadpanned. This was a trap.

"Looks like it." Ada hummed, realizing what you had. 

"We should-" you motioned to the exit.

"Yeah." Ada nodded in agreement. You both began to make your way out, but the large metal doors to your exit slid down quickly, locking you in. A metal slot slid open, showing Annette's face.

"Bravo. Gonna burn us alive now?" Ada deadpanned.

"You'll never get your filthy hands on the G." Annette said. Her eyes moved to you. "And you. Just passing through?" She asked sarcastically.

You shrugged sheepishly and huffed an uncomfortable laugh. "Well, uh, things changed."

"You want the G too? Or did she trick you into working with her? She's good at that." Annette said.

"I'm not the only one after it. You realize that." Ada said, changing the subject.

"Then you won't die alone." Annette said, she looked at you. "You shouldn't have decided to work with her." She told you as she shut the metal slot, the furnace was activated seconds later.

Ada quickly began to do her thing with the device as the room got hotter and hotter in the span of seconds as fire burned at your feet.

"Hey, Ada? I don't mean to rush you but I don't really feel like being burned alive at the moment." You nervously said.

"Almost there." Ada reassured, sweat began to form on the both of you. The heat felt a hundred times more intense thanks to your thick hoodie that was meant for the cold and bitter air above ground.

She finally got the door to explode and you both quickly ran out of the room. You turned back and saw the furnace room had stopped working. Good riddance.

"That bitch knows what she's doing." Ada admitted.

We walked to the door that needed a pass, and it immediately opened.

"Visitor clearance confirmed. Your ID is authorized until OCTOBER FIRST. Please return before this date." A computer voice said.

"Not gonna happen." Ada said. You finally took off your jacket revealing your dark purple t-shirt, and discarded it. It was covered in blood and mud stains anyways. It was time to let it go.

"Finally gave up on it?" Ada asked as you both ran down the hall.

"It was too far gone. There was no saving it. Plus, it's really hot here."

Once again you appeared on another catwalk and ran in the direction you thought Annette went. The large room seemed to be some kind of indoor junk yard. You both paused when a spot light turned on a ways away in front of you.

"Enough, with this cat a mouse game." Ada demanded, glancing over to the window of the control room where Annette stood. She was as tired of this bullshit as you were.

"The game is over. You lost." Annette said.

"Tell me, is your husband still alive? Or did you kill him? So you could take credit for G." Ada asked.

"Interesting theory. What, did she not tell you?" Annette asked, pointing to you as she began pressing buttons and activating something. "Your new friend was there. Didn't she mention it?"

You looked around nervously as mechanisms began to hum to life. Maybe you should move.

"You don't cooperate, I'll get a sample from the NEST." Ada said simply.

"Over my dead body." Annette snarled, activating a lever.

You quickly jumped to the ledge just outside of the path of the giant, metallic claw that was swept across the catwalk. Ada wasn't as lucky in avoiding it as you were. She grasped at the safety bars, attempting to prevent her fall, but the bars fell apart from the damage to the catwalk the claw had caused.

You gasped as she fell with a scream and ran to the edge of the catwalk. You looked down the debris filled room to see a glimmer of red. You heard her yell in pain.

 Yay. She's not dead.

"Ada? You okay?" You shouted.

"Uh, no!" She yelled back. You sighed as you began to look for a ways down.

"Hang on, I'll find a way down." You told her as you glanced at the control room. Annette was still there.

"She's not who you think she is. You know that right?" Annette asked you.

"Maybe. But I'm not just gonna leave her there." You said as you made your way to a ladder leading down towards the metallic junk.

"It won't matter in the end. You'll both die before ever leaving NEST." Annette said, making you pause at the ladder.

"What makes you say that?" You questioned hesitantly, not sure if you wanted to hear the answer.

"William." Annette simply said as she walked off. You heard a distant, loud, roar and a shiver ran down your spine. Right. William.

"Fucking shit. I forgot about him." You muttered as you climbed down the ladder. You have been lucky enough not to cross paths with the mutated William. You suppose your luck would run out soon.

You reached the floor and set off to the direction Ada was laying. You walked around a pile of debris and saw Ada laying on the ground. A piece of sharp metal was lodged into her leg.

"Oh. Yeah, I can see how you're not okay." You said as you kneeled beside her and took your bag off to grab the first aid kit.

"Yeah? What gave it away?" Ada snarked.

"Hmm, well the scream of pain kinda rang some alarm bells. But hey. It could have been worse. You could have been impaled by that." You said, pointing to the large piece of metal not too far from where she landed. Big enough to impale her torso.

Ada shivered when she followed your pointed finger. "Yeah. This I prefer." She sat up, careful not to disturb her injury.

"Me too. I've been traumatized enough, thank you." You said, reaching into the med kit to grab the gauze, bandages, and medical tape. "Do we disinfect the wound when we pull that out?" You weren't sure how to treat stab wounds.

"Yes. I don't want an infection." She grabbed the kit and looked through what you had. "This will do." She handed you the bottle of disinfectant from the kit. "Here, I can bandage myself up. You can pull the shrapnel out."

"C- can we switch jobs?" You asked, not really wanting to hurt her.

"I can't pull it out. And I can't walk like this." Ada sighed.

You hesitated, hand drawing closer to the shrapnel. "I don't really want to hurt you." 

"You killed a man not that long ago. You can pull out some shrapnel." She deadpanned.

You flinched, but tried to ignore the comment. "Yeah, well, he was an asshole. Which you are kind of being right now. But you're in pain, so I'll allow it." You weakly joked, hand hovering over the metal.

"Thanks." She snorted.

"Just this once though." You said as you quickly pulled the metal out of her leg.

"Bitch!" Ada yelled in pain, irritated with the lack of warning. You tried not to laugh. It wasn't funny. She's in pain. 

Eh, it was kind of funny.

"I deserve that." You said as you grabbed the bottle of disinfectant and bandages from her.

"You do. I can patch myself up." Ada said grumpily, grunting in pain every now and then. She moved to take the bandage away but you slapped her wrist away.

"Just stay still and shut up." You demanded.

"Wow. You have wonderful bedside manners." She sarcastically stated.

"Yeah, and my parents wanted me to be a doctor." You laughed. You? A doctor? Yeah right.

Ada actually chuckled at the thought. "I haven't even known you a day and even I know that you would have been a terrible doctor."

"I fully agree. But, look at how well I just patched you up." You grinned, proud of your work.

Ada examined the wound. "Well, I'm not bleeding out. So good job, Y/n." 

"Careful. You almost sounded grateful. It will ruin your badass FBI persona." 

"You're right, we can't have that." Ada snarked back.

You changed your position from sitting on your knees to sitting with your legs crossed in front of you. Ada sat across from you.

"So, want to try walking around? Or do you want to wait for Leon to inevitably show up. He's probably already up and looking for us." You said.

Ada thought for a moment. "Let's wait for him. We're gonna need his help with finding the G." 

"Alright. You're the boss." You shrugged.

"Oh, am I now?" She asked.

"Well you know more about this covert mission stuff than I do."

"I don't know, you seemed to have held your own before I even got here. You got into the NEST before I did. Even got past Annette…" She complimented before trailing off. "And you know what happened to her husband, William?" Ada asked curiously.

You sighed and nodded. "Trying to butter me up for information? All you have to do is ask, Ada."

"Alright. What happened? Did you see?"

"Unfortunately. He was cornered by some men in combat gear. They were after the G, which seems to be the common theme for the past few days…" Your voice faded as your thoughts overcame your mind. 

"And?" Ada urged.

"And he decided that, rather than let them get away with it and die from his gunshot wounds, he should inject himself with the G-virus instead. So, we might encounter a mutated William Birkin while down here. Have that to look forward to." You weakly stated as you fiddled with a piece of metal, eyes gazing into the distance.

"So he caused this outbreak? Not Annette?" 

"From what I've seen. Yes. William did start this. Although Annette clearly had a part in it too. My guess is that the men in combat gear didn't get too far. Must have somehow spread in the chaos." 

"Hmm. Possibly. Thank you. For telling me." Ada said.

"You'd find out one way or another. Not that it matters much to your mission."

"No. But it is nice to know. I like to get to know everything I can. So I won't go in blind." Ada told you.

"That makes sense. I did the same thing before coming here. I was still unprepared. Nearly got lost because I didn't snag a map."

"How did you get out?"

"Annette, actually. She helped me out."

"She just, let you go? That doesn't sound like her."

"Well I obviously didn't tell her that I was investigating Umbrella and stealing information to show everyone how sketchy the company is. I think she had more important things to deal with than some girl that one of the scientists snuck in."

Ada goes to respond, but is interrupted by a familiar voice. "Ada? Y/n? Where are you?"

"Over here!" Ada yelled.

Leon came running around the corner. "There you two are. I was getting worried there for a sec." 

"We were waiting for you, slow poke." You teased.

Leon huffed a laugh. "What happened?" He asked, gesturing to the wound on Ada's leg.

"I fell." Ada deadpanned.

"More like you got thrown off the platform, but yeah." You muttered. She threw you a half-hearted glare and you raised your hands in mock surrender.

"So, what now?" Leon asked.

"Get yourself out of here. While you still can." Ada said. 

You raised a brow. She made you wait for him, claiming that he could help with finding the G-virus, and now she wants him to leave. What? What's her play here?

"I'm not just gonna leave you. Not like this." Leon told her.

"You don't understand. The situation is worse than I thought." Ada said, almost helplessly. 

Pathetically. 

She was not like this just moments ago. What's her play- Oh. She knows Leon's type. The knight in shining armor. She wants to use that to her advantage. She knows he won't leave her. Funny, you almost forgot that this was the same person who would have left you for dead in that cell if you weren't useful to her mission. You shouldn't have been so surprised. You shouldn't have let your guard down. You were an idiot.

"You're not getting rid of me that easily. You protected me. Now it's my turn." Leon said. You stood and crossed your arms, watching the scene from a distance.

"Didn't realize we were keeping score." Ada joked, referencing earlier. Leon helped her up.

"Grab my shoulder." Leon said.

"Don't push it rookie." Ada defended, slapping his hand away.

"Okay. Just trying to help." Leon said.

"You wanna help? We have to get to the NEST."

"NEST?"

"Umbrella's lab, remember? Right beneath us. That's where the virus samples are. You up for this?"

"Think I can fit it in my schedule."

You sighed and groaned loudly. "Alright, I've seen enough. Let's go love birds. Watch your step, Ada." You turned to walk ahead to the exit.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Leon asked, following behind you and a limping Ada.

"I've been in this situation for a week now, Leon. I want to get this shit show over with and get the hell out of here. And I can only do that after I uphold my end of the bargain." You said, leading them toward the direction of the cable car.

"Even though we failed to save your friends?" Leon questioned. You paused in your step and shut your eyes in frustration.

"Why do you both keep bringing them up? How am I supposed to move on when you're just reminding me of my dead friends every five minutes. Stay out of my business and I'll stay out of yours." You snapped. They just kept prying, and you were over it.

"Woah, okay. I shouldn't have brought them up. I am sorry, though, about your friends." Leon said, face looking like a kicked puppy once more. How are you supposed to be angry at him when he looked at you like that? Damn your soft heart.

"Sure you are. You didn't know them. To the both of you, they're just two more faces of the thousands of dead that you've already forgotten. So please, focus on this mission so we can all go our separate ways when it's over. And hopefully never see each other again." You told them. 

You were over it. Over the fake sympathies and Umbrella and this entire city. You're tired. You didn't want to do this anymore.

"The cable car will take us further down to NEST. This wristband is our ticket to ride." Ada gestured to her wrist, breaking the silence.

"Nice. Where'd you get that?" Leon asked.

"Y/n found it."

"You're welcome." You said dryly.

"Anyway, we're almost there." Ada told him as she limped after you.

You walked through a door and held it open, Ada and Leon walked through. Or in Ada's case, limped.

She folds over in pain. "Ugh, this damn leg."

"Let me carry you." Leon insisted.

She shook her head. "No. That'd only make me feel worse. How's the shoulder?"

"Worse than it looks." He brushed off.

"What a pair. Both got one foot in the grave." Ada snarked.

You finally made it to the cable car door. "Here we are." You said.

Ada limped forward and used the wrist band to unlock the door.  It unlocked and you walked in, immediately going to sit on one of the benches, not bothering to even try and figure out how to work the cable car. Ada sat on a bench further down the cable car, which was slanted and had stairs for some reason. Interesting design choice.

"This may be a one way ride. So be prepared, you two." Ada warned.

"Not like I have a choice. Unless you're giving me the option to leave too?" You asked for across the car.

Ada shook her head. "We'll need you, Y/n. You know where to find the G. Or, at least, where to start."

Oh, so Leon got a choice and you don't? You doubted she needed you. You really did. So why was she keeping you here? What could you possibly add to the mission?

Leon started the cable car and it began its descent further into the NEST. 

"This tram is bound for NEST. Do not exit until the final destination." A computer voice said.

"You know what I was thinking? I can't wait for the FBI to raid Umbrella headquarters and take those bastards to justice." Leon said. 

Yeah, if only.

"I agree… But to be clear, you're not working in official capacity. This is a federal case. Once we get the G-virus, I'm back on my own." Ada told him.

Leon seemed a bit annoyed by this and turned around to look away. You couldn't really tell what he was thinking.

"Hey, Leon. Trust me?" Ada asked.

He walked up the stairs toward her. "You trust me?"

Ada huffed a laugh. "Honestly… If I didn't you'd probably be dead."

"Right." Leon scoffed.

"What about you, Y/n?" She asked, taking your attention from looking out the windows.

"What about me?" You asked, not really paying attention to the conversation.

"Do you trust me? Trust us?" Ada repeated.

You looked at her and Leon, pausing for a moment, before shaking your head. "No."

"No?" Leon questioned, confused and curious.

"No." You repeated. "I barely know you both. We've been together for five, maybe six hours. I don't trust that easily. Especially strangers." 

"Smart. I don't blame you for that. But for this to work, I need you to trust us. Trust me." Ada tried.

You hummed. "Yeah, well, I'll try not to ruin your plans. How about that?" 

You could meet in the middle and work together, but trust? That's a stretch. It's a lot to ask for. You've been disappointed and betrayed by those you've trusted before. In return you've always been careful when it comes to that. Hell, it took a couple weeks before you even fully trusted Ben. Especially when he started dating Katherine. 

A pang in your heart. No. Don't think about them. Survive now, grieve later. 

"Why don't you trust us? We've saved your life." Leon said.

"Yes. And I thank you for that. But in case you've forgotten, which I haven't, you also threatened to leave me for dead in that cell with Ben's body if I didn't cooperate. Not exactly a good first impression."

Ada nodded in reluctant understanding. "Look, I thought I might need yours and Y/n's help… and I was right. If you both can secure the G-virus I can make sure what happened in Raccoon City never happens again."

Leon sits next to her. "Ada. You said it yourself. It's a federal case. I don't have the authority-"

"Look at me." Ada interrupted. Leon went silent and she huffed. "I'm a liability now. If I'm gonna finish this case, you both are the last hope I've got."

Ah, so that was her plan. Make us do her dirty work.

Leon looked conflicted. "I'm not just gonna leave you here. What if you're attacked? What if you need help-"

Ada kisses Leon. She kisses him. For a good few seconds. You grimaced and turned to look out the windows, never a fan of PDA. 

Didn't they just meet each other? Must be another manipulation tactic. Kiss the man to shut him up and get him to listen.

"I'll be fine. Don't worry about me. I gotta see this through. And I want to see you again." She placed a hand on his thigh. "I got plenty to live for. Trust me." 

Is that flirting? Is she flirting?

Really fucking awkward. Oh wow, look at that. The building structure is amazing. You could give Umbrella a point for cool underground labs. That leaves them at -99. 

"Now arriving at NEST." The computer voice said.

"Go. Please. We don't have much time. You're gonna need this." She took off the wrist band and gave it to Leon.

"Okay." Leon said, ready to be the hero. "You coming, Y/n?" Leon asked you. 

You glanced at Ada and saw her look at you pleadingly. You rolled your eyes and walked over to her.

"Fine. I'll do your dirty work for you, seeing as you're incapable at the moment. But after this, I don't want to see you ever again. I don't really appreciate being manipulated." You said quietly, so Leon wouldn't hear from the doorway.

"I haven't been manipulating you-" Ada started.

"You have. And Leon too. You know it." You shrugged. "It's fine. I'll get you your G-virus. I just better not find out it has landed in the wrong hands because of you. I really don't want a repeat of Raccoon City, Ada. I don't want to have a part in that again. You can understand that, can you?" You questioned.

"I understand. You can trust me, Y/n." Ada said. 

You looked her in the eye and studied her face. You were conflicted. It was odd. Every single part of you wanted to trust her, but you knew you couldn't. That you shouldn't.

"We'll see. Stay safe, Ada." You said as you turned and walked away from her.

"I'm counting on you both." Ada said.

"I know." Leon responded. You just went out, not wanting to stay there anymore.

Time to go get the G-virus.

[itsmaddienotmaddy]

I wasn’t going to blab my soccer nonsense but I can’t HELP IT.

We won, we scored, it’s World Cup season and I’m living for it.

Soph is inevitable and how fucking exciting is it that she got TWO goals and an assist in her World Cup debut. So good. So deserving. Miss ma’am put in the WORK today. She also needs to make quicker decisions on her passing, she waits and loses the open opportunities forcing her to go back or try to take on 4 players on the dribble.

Trin, also a DEBUT. It’s really really fun to see these players on this giant stage. And tbh, I think Trin would have done better if she hadn’t been trucked in the first 30 seconds. I think she’ll likely build in this tournament. I’m waiting for a worldie.

Alex - needed exactly what Tobin said in the first re inc recap episode. She needs good service. Soph and Trin like to dribble. There’s a conflicting front line game plan. That being said, she worked her ass off. Had really good opportunities and read situations really well. And my GOD, that flick assist to Soph is what dreams are made of. Should we ignore the penalty? Ummm. I kind of already blocked it from my brain. Soph should have taken it.

Pinoe, I love her. We all love her. Not her game. We know this. She obviously knows it. But the promising thing she does is that she’s this linking spark. Lindsey must have been pumped to have her in because all of a sudden, there were passing triangles pinging all over that side.

Alyssa (baby) - another youngin! I can’t find it in me to be anything but so freaking happy seeing the youth get this experience. No curmudgeon here for now. She had one great run and cross that was promising. Had a hard time staying on her feet, but can ya blame her?

Andi, sweet Andi. This was a great game for her to get minutes and side bar; she’s not a baby youth but it’s her first World Cup too and I’m PROUD. Idk if she’s always gonna cut it against top opponents but I appreciate her vision and her physicality. She’s a brick wall and really and truly, in a 50/50 sitch, my money is on Andi staying tall and the opposing player eating grass.

Savannah. How’s she doing? Can she believe it? How NUTS to have your literal second cap be starting the first game of the World Cup. She was getting shoved and getting really familiar with the grass for a bit, but she settled and actually looked extremely comfortable, stood out positively, and had some really good goal opportunities. She’s very cool, I wanna see a banger one of these games.

Lindsey has a pretty good game! She is a brilliant player and there were such good moments showing just that. Her pass to Alex’s flick to the first goal. Beautiful. And she had a few more that were so so nice. Went down easy a few times per usual but I do think she adjusted to the game and the lack of calls and she was working to stay up, putting that damn muscle to good use. She does have a tendency to overthink the strike when the ball takes a hot second to get to her. But, that third goal. A solid freaking rip.

Miss Rose. I missed that pale bitch so much. She makes the midfield. She makes those around her better. She allows a different attack because she carries the ball so well and folks are confident in her foot skills to allow her to work. She wasn’t perfect - her headers will forever crack me up. But we are at our best with Rose on the field.

Naomi. First World Cup whom? She is smooth, she is calm, she is consistent. Idk how she’s so young. She’s got amazing energy, big fan.

Center back Julie. She did what we needed back there. I’m curious if she was utilized as center back for the veteran experience or if she was put there instead of in the 6 because her fitness level isn’t midfield tier yet. Either way, blue headband blonde hair target on set pieces is something I’ve been missing in my life. She’s crazy. And we need it. Idk whom else is working as hard as her to get a body part on the ball for set pieces. (Can I say it? Can I say I miss Jill Ellis era set pieces?)

Crystal was doing lovely Crystal things. She works super well with Soph and if Soph could have weighted those passes better on the overlaps, oooohhhhhh!! Could’ve been SO good.

Foxy, a commanding debut. She looked v good. Maybe a touch better on crossing but she really just killed it. No other notes needed.

Kelley. Miss Bitch. Miss ‘I Know Exactly the energy you gotta bring to a big tournament’. No joke. Kelley brought tournament vibes onto the field. Her experience is unparalleled and I thought she made good use of her minutes. Her overlaps were good. Her connection with Lindsey and Pinoe was very good. And her crossing was spot on.

Sofia. Not the debut I’m sure she wanted. Usually a great crosser, not great today. Got smoked on the one defensive run needed. It’s a bummer.

Alyssa (uncle). I love her. I trust her. She didn’t have to do much. But I still love her.

And Vlatko gets a section because he confuses me. His game plan always seems so sleepy. The thing about the USWNT is that they used to put on a show. Loud sparkly ruthless bad bitches. And the personnel still has that in them, I KNOW THAT. I just don’t know why that’s not being accessed and unleashed. Which makes me blame coaching. Idk if he’s too nice, too careful, too unwilling to change the expected game plan when the actual game requires something different.

I am just a dumb bitch on the internet, however, if my players are getting pushed and shoved left and right and the ref isn’t calling shit…. I may rethink my idea of putting in my two most fragile (and arguably some of the most important) players in. I am so aware that Rose and Pinoe needed game minutes. Especially before the Netherlands. So I’ll let it slide this time lol. But the energy of that game - the ref letting all the physicality, pushing and tackling slide? That’s a… oh, maybe I put a Kristie and a Sonnett in and get them to put on their enforcer pants and change the flow of this game.

the ending of friendship

Why does ending a friendship hurt more sometimes than a breakup? Why does it leave us questioning everything? Why are there times when it doesn’t hurt at all? 

Friends are people that you collect throughout your life, there’s an old saying “you have friends for a reason, a season or for life”. You want to believe that everyone you meet will be your friend forever but sadly that isn’t the case some people you meet will and some will just use you until they don’t need you anymore, even 20 + year friendship end, the secret to good friendships is knowing which ones to nurture and which ones to let go.  Friends a bit like plants, you nature them all and soon enough you’ll see which ones grow and will be around forever and which ones are the weeds who will suck all the nutrients out of the soil and leave you dry.  

True friends, soul sisters, your person, whatever you want to call them are rare and you want to hold on tight to these, these are the people that you can call no matter what, they are ones who will celebrate your wins and good times, be with you through the tough times, will listen on the phone or will hold you while you cry, will always call you out on your crap, will bail you out of jail and will help you bury the body. No matter what you tell them they stay their friendship never waivers and their love for you never changes. 

What happens when someone you thought was your best friend for 20+ years is no longer your friend, you begin to doubt yourself, you continually questions and overthink, you wonder what you did or said that made them pull away. Let me tell you  IT IS NOT YOU.  You have did not do anything wrong, it was just that this friendship was not meant to last and it was only one for a season, when the season changed so did you and so did they and that’s ok, yes it still hurts, yes It still makes you question everything but its ok to look back and remember the good times.

I recently experienced this, a few years ago my ex-best friend got married, I was so excited that I didn’t think anything when the snide comments were being made about me being single and not being able to bring a date to the wedding because a) I wouldn’t ever find anyone who would want to go with me,  b) I would be to busy helping said bride on her wedding day. I should have known something was up but I chose to ignore it.  When the wedding RSVP came I was not allowed plus one, ummm ok, also I was asked to be the MOH while were all out dressing shopping for her dress and I wasn’t even asked I was more so told by the way your the MOH, at that point what do you say, ok thank you, what else is there to say, Everything up to the wedding day was not the smoothest sailing but with her and the new in laws it was to be expected.  I knew the night before her wedding that the next day would be the end of our friendship, she was getting married  and joining that club she didn’t need me anymore the constant single person. So the wedding day came and went, forced wedding pictures were taken (which I still haven’t seen to this day) the reception was held, speeches were made and in a room full of people I knew, I felt lonelier then ever. I cleaned up the hall and left by 11:30 without even a thank you. After the wedding I heard from her only when she needed something from me, we maybe hung out once when her husband went away and it was awkward, every time since then whenever I see her I ask the normal polite questions you ask but she never asks anything about my life and its ok. Does it hurt that she can’t be bothered to ask about my life yes, but I’ve realized that, that is who she is and that at the end of the day.

I’m grateful for that time we had as friends we went through a lot, but at the end of the day I am so lucky to have such a great group of true friends who know me, know my dark twisted secrets and still stay, even with 2000km between us we are still the same best friends that we have always been, this group of girls has been there for me through it all, some longer then other but time means nothing, wether its 2 years or 20 years of friendship they are my people, my soul sisters and I am a better person for knowing them and having them in my life.

How have you been recording your songs and do you have any advice for recording? I’ve been thinking about recording some stuff but I have no clue where to start

I use wired headphones bc It's the only thing I have loll. Ummm for like technique and stuff I would just say probably don't think about it as recording literally just sing. When you overthink the fact that you're recording at least from my person experience you kind of start to overseeing. (Which is fine if that's the style you're going for but if you're trying to do minimalistic vocals then yea) And just have fun with it also! I've had so many mental breakdowns because I've felt like I have to keep recording something over and over because I can't get it right haha. It can get annoying but it's very fun and shouldn't really be too stressful! Also the program I make all my tracks on and record vocals on is called BandLab!! I hope this helps and I'll def answer any more questions that you have! SO SORRY THIS IS LIKE 2 DAYS LATER I HAVEN'T BEEN ON HERE SORRY LOVE U GUYS!!!!!!

(I just thought of this later and idk where to put it so. im typing it here. When you record louder vocals distance yourself from the mic unless you have one of those really high quality even tone circular ones or else it would literally just sound like static and very unpleasant.)

(In)humanity

"You claim to feel pain."

"I do feel pain."

"You also have said numerous times that you don't mind being shot."

"I said I don't think much of it. I'm still gonna try not to. If I could get shot and just feel the pain without taking any physical damage, I would still try to not get shot. It sucks. I just... Don't let getting shot stop me, don't let the idea of it keep me out of places, so on and on. My shields and armor are strong, so it takes a few blasts to get through, most of the time I'm only gonna take some bruises and a little heat. There's this gap between running away and Sunny patching me up and my shields returning, that's when... Oof. Nothing left between me and a lead slug-- can I swear?"

"You may."

"Stop encouraging her!"

"I think to annoy our mutual friend, I may even challenge you to add as much vulgarity as possible."

"Light, noooooo..."

"I would fall real short of expectations, I just say fuck a lot."

"A pity. You will learn."

~

"Hope so! I was talking about getting shot directly-- Fuck that. It's like lava if lava used my hammers! You can feel it ripple through everything! And I'm still too tough to die right, so they have to do it twice, maybe hit my head properly. I hate that shit!"

"The damage to your body as your shields break is different, somehow?"

"It's like being beaten eighty percent of the way to death, and then the last twenty is gone pretty fast? Not that being beaten to death is great or anything, but the alternative is getting shot or burned."

"Have you ever considered attempting long term survival?"

".... Can I make a joke?"

"Please."

"I told you before, I've been alive for a whole week straight."

"Ha!"

"We've joked about it, but it's only jokes. I would get bored. Sunny would, too. Even if we quit fighting, I'd go do stuff that got me killed."

"Hmph! For instance?"

"She's crushed herself with falling debris because she moved the wrong support on multiple occasions."

"That. We've already decided we would try and clean up Earth and lay some global networking, and maybe mark off radiation zones, so on."

"Remind me to tell you why I love that idea later."

"Has there ever been an injury or death traumatic enough to stop you?"

"Probably... Delay. Never stop. Not yet."

"Your voice bears a distinct waver. Is Sunny threatening again?"

"Yes."

"Do not interfere."

"She keeps trying to lie when she feels her humanity being challenged."

"Oh? I wondered why someone practically unstoppable would claim otherwise."

"I... Have no idea what that even means. What?"

"I'll explain later. Stop giving the answers you think you're supposed to give."

"... 'kay. No, I haven't been so wounded that it got me to stop for more than a regroup. I have given up before, but I came back after I found a new weapon or armor piece or mod kit or whatever."

"Are there any particular injuries you can recall?"

"Ummm... You'll have to be more specific, it's all kinda flashes but nothing special."

"Are there sensations associated with healing?"

"It's usually--wait, by Sunny or just Light in general? I can heal with mine."

"Can you?"

".... You know, I was just fine telling you about dying on the field but for some reason, talking about my Light feels awkward?"

"Hm."

"Uh... So, I can heal myself because... Solar energy is generative, and the energy can be used to hasten growth."

"What are you quoting?"

"My roommate. He called Arc traveling and Void destructive, too. Parallels to subatomic shit. He loves these theories."

"Is he correct?"

"I couldn't tell you. It comes naturally. He has to overthink everything. My fire is warm to me and burns the shit out of everything else. I like my fire's heal, but it doesn't relieve pain like Sunny's. It's... warm."

"That's the only word she ever uses."

"I see."

".... I am really really trying here to come up with a way to do the analogy thing... Like my heart's on fire in the best way. Warm like your sleeping bag if you fold it right, like a hot bath on aches. I can feel stuff growing back, kinda, but more like the fire is filling in the gaps until the meat can come back."

"I see."

"Sunny's heals are cool. Ice compress, wading in cold water when it's hot, letting cool air under the blanket. It's. Dry....? Like a med hall?"

"Have you ever been in a medical ward?"

"Not for me, but they smell like nothing and it feels like anything I cut there wouldn't bleed."

"This is inaccurate, but I take what I imagine to be your meaning."

"Yeah. But so, it feels more like it's being cleaned and repaired. Numbed, stabilized, cleaned, and restored is what it feels like."

"Interesting. Do you have a preference?"

"...."

"Don't lie."

".... I wasn't gonna..."

"Stop lying, too."

"... The fire...."

"Why?"

"Dunno. It's warm."

"Hmph!"

Ghost Affection

[particular-one]

Hi ☺️ can i pls get a match up for twst, genshin and haikyuu?

Hmm...for name, I'll go with 🐰 anon! I'll probably write to you from now using this emoji so be prepared for it hehe

she/her, prefers male results and my mbti is ✨️enfp✨️ (but you probs already guess that LOL)

Hmmm, im a bit shy at first (i got that typical rbf + im super tall so everyone is scared of me at first!) But once i warm up, im really just a big puppy hehe, super affectionate and loving, very caring and of course well mannered. I have a high standard for myself, and while i baby others, im really harsh with myself 😅 i try to get along well with everybody i meet but if i cant then ill just ignore them. If i tease someone then it's out of love hahaha. (Enemies to lovers who 👀 jkjk lol) I'm mature but sometimes a little playful when the mood allows for it but i definitely know when to be serious. Oh man, i really did ramble about myself hahaha, i hope you made it through that 😂

Hobbies: i like anything! My friends always call me up to hang out and i never say no. If theres something i really love though.....eating? Hahaha

In a romantic partner: loyalty!!!!!! I don't want to play guessing games on if they love me or not (omg suffering bc this prob eliminates all my problematic pretty faves LMAO). A little cat and mouse game is okay but at the end of the day, i give my whole heart to my lover so i want to trust that they'll take care of it without hurting me. I'm a biiiiit of an overthinker (read:runner) so someone who can hold it down for me when my ass starts acting up would be ideal. Im always taking care of others so i want someone who can dote on me! (Ummm say you want the princess treatment without saying you want the princess treatment much?? LOL) I'm also a big people pleaser and a pushover so someone who can remind me to not overwork myself, and maybe help put my foot down or stand up for me when im having trouble doing so would be really really....really nice 👉👈

Love languages: I'd like to receive acts of service! And as for giving.....i give all 😭 my leo placements make me treat my lover like royalty! I do want the princess treatment but it's only because I treat my man like a king 😤 (i hope that connotation wasn't overly suggestive, i promise that wasnt my intention hahaha) as for deal breakers: lying and cheating- that is a NO!!!

Thank you for reading this whole thing and thank you for doing this💕❣️

-your brand new 🐰 anon hehe

hello 🐰 anon!! thanks for being the first matchup request <3 and i look forward to doing more future requests for you! hope you like your matchups! :]

TWISTED WONDERLAND ---- MALLEUS DRACONIA

⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ malleus is used to being the only being that everyone in nrc is scared of, so seeing that you experience the same thing when meeting new people oddly puts him at ease that he isn't alone. though it took a while before the both of you would start conversing because malleus is unsure on how to approach you without scaring you like all the others, he really cherishes your relationship with him. he enjoys conversing with you, especially since your caring and affectionate attitude makes him feel a little less lonely. he also gets flustered when you tease him, unsure how else to respond! as a partner, malleus is very loyal to you. though it majorly stems from the fact that he does not like being left alone, he will sometimes follow you around silently as you do your activities, constantly checking up on you if you're alright. he also likes to impress you so he does his best to cook your favorite food, since you like eating! it's only a good thing he didn't enlist lilia's help for this. when he sees you burdening yourself again with even more work late at night, he stays up with you as company. there are even times where he offers to help you with it - if there was something he could do to help, he would jump on it so that he could see you just a tad bit more relaxed. malleus sometimes brings you out on late night walks when you're getting stressed with your work for some fresh air and relax for a bit with him.

GENSHIN IMPACT ---- THOMA

⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ thoma is the classic golden retriever, and your personality perfectly parallels with his! hence, he really likes spending time with you - at least, with the free time that he has. he's also big on compliments, so expect tons of praise from thoma! he's helped around with a bunch of tasks and activities with you by his side, so he knows exactly how you work, and admires just how hard you work. he wants to be just like that, if he were being honest. when the both of you are working on something together, you're honestly unstoppable - like ... literally. none of you would probably halt on working until you get things done, which just shows how well you work with one another. as a partner, thoma is, as mentioned, exactly like a golden retriever. he would drop anything he's doing to help you out when he can, and he even would go to lengths to make sure you're as happy as possible! he notices just how much you help others and constantly reminds you that you can rely on him (like a rock) if you needed anything. thoma is honestly a really romantic guy and likes to surprise you by pulling out all the stops (via his connections) to create surprises for you, like a quick dinner date that he cooked up! he's at his happiest when he sees you happily eating the food he cooked for you, he's sappy like that. oh! and he also brings you flowers and bought small items that reminded him of you.

HAIKYUU!! ---- OIKAWA TOORU

⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ oikawa was rather an unorthodox choice, considering how your personalities, at first glance, might clash. he wouldn't admit it, but oikawa was genuinely scared when he met you for the first time, your consistent rbf and height being plausible factors why. still, he was drawn to how you constantly helped everyone around you, and to his intrigue, he actually found some similarities between the both of you! the both of you get into teasing matches with no clear winner. though he did not get into a relationship with you immediately (read: oikawa was way too stubborn and in denial), he wouldn't trade it for the world. as a partner, oikawa might seem like the type who would flaunt you simply in public, but he praises you a lot in private too. though he has a lot of female fans, rest assured oikawa only has his eyes for you. he's also your biggest defender and would get into arguments with others just to make sure you're alright. he can be pretty straight with you too, so if he sees that you aren't taking care of yourself, he'd be the one to take matters in his own hands and find a way to get you to stop overworking. as ironic as that may be considering he overworks as well, but you also get him to stop constantly overworking so it's a balance! oikawa never forgets to get you your favorite snack - even if it's late after practice.

[hard-core-super-star]

okay, they disturbed your sleep but they were hungry, so it's ok... I guess? always on the side of the cats ☝️ I mean, you could have gone to sleep and reply another time jehskakkdkw what eye rolls? 🙄 should I clarify for you then?

I- ummm😶 I'm going to start working my brain to have any chance against you in this case. EXCUSE ME?!?!?!? what kind of absurd accusation is this??? I'm not even going to answer that kind of thing which is complete nonsense, I can't even think of such a thing, absurd, It's the end of times. we nailed it again.

yeah, I think you're right, but you can always shine brighter with an incentive or maybe a reason. I- of course? 😶 what would you like to know or hear (read...) about this reason? It makes sense. if you had used the overthinking thing I wouldn't even have dared to leave the sentences unfinished. kshwjaksk thanks, tell me what you thought of the letter later. now I wonder, how is it for you to learn so many languages ​​with your memory hating you sometimes? 🤔 just to let you know, the research was completely canceled because calling you my goldfish would seem like I was making fun of you lmao, NOT that I would do that tho- exactly that, sometimes it's worth going through such pain because the reward later can be much better. you weren't kidding when you said that his poem doesn't leave your mind ksjskskak if we're talking about the.

WAIT, that's not what I meant!!! wowwow I won't mess with them then. what is your cats name? 🤔 I mean, I'll take your side, of course, but... the cats side-

the first fic I read of yours was “my ears fill with the sound of you kneeling” I LOVE this one. I can't help but like this fic, it's all so beautiful and I'm a sucker for it and everything about it, the feelings, the actions, the dialogues, I literally wouldn't expect that one day I would think I would get emotional about one person calling the other a puppy. (yes, it wasn't even your fault lol. my braincell is suffering, mainly because I'm very sleepy. I guess you'll have to tell me- also, goodnight!)

– 🌟

is it? my sleep schedule begs to differ. yeahhhh but then that means less time for us to talk because timezone differences. i knew you’d already be awake at my 5am so might as well. stop or you won't be getting that third star you seem to be so desperate for 👀 yeah, i think some clarification is needed.

you know, those umm’s count as unfinished sentences and we said we wouldn't do that anymore 👀 i think your reaction proves it's not as absurd as you're making it out to be. no one will judge you if you admit it, darling, this is a safe space.

you know, i think i can accept that argument. anything you want to tell me, it seems like quite a significant reason. you tell me this now??? i thought the overthinking thing was obvious with my constant rambles and mentions of anxiety lmao. oh, language learning can be both painful and extremely rewarding because of my horrible memory. it also sort of forces me to go outside the box and use things like music to help me learn/remember things. awww, is my little star trying to come up with a cute nickname for me? 🥹 the mere fact that you tried is enough for me. it sounds weird but sometimes even knowing such pain exists can be a reward. it can be a reminder that you're alive which can be a beautiful yet complicated mess. yeah, i wasn't kidding at all lmao.

riiight, so what did you mean then? the oldest one is blue because she has blue eyes and i wasn't too creative when i named her lmao and then the one with abandonment issues is beebo which…is a double reference and has a long story that goes with it 😶 but the cat’s side what? i dare you to finish that sentence.

oh wow, you got to read the best one first lmao. it's technically a smut fic but the hurt/comfort aspect jumped out at me and i had to make that the focus. once again, feelings over actions. plus, as we’ve established, kate bishop is in dire need of affection. the puppy thing has taken me by surprise too but i love it a lot more than i ever realized…which is why i snuck it into for your love. calling kate puppy is great, being called puppy? also great. [your braincell seems to be always suffering...is this a cry for help? i could but then my wish won't come true and we can't have that. good night but also good morning!]

[autism-connoisseur]

for the random question asks:

4, 29, 81

4. are you organised?

HAHAHAHAHA. NO.

i try to be but.... i organize things in a very specific way that tends to be uh. not organizated at all apparently?? turns out you can't just have a "papers spot" where you keep every note you ever took in school. bummer.

29. what’s your favourite cuisine?

i cant tell if this is favorite food or favorite type of food (like. italian food mexican food etc) sooo. of it's type of food i'll say spanish cuisine... it's so good genuinely maybe it's because i'm used to it and it's familiar but i love it... i promise you that you need to try a good tortilla it will change your life (i think what you guys call tortilla is what we call filloas? idk but try those too)

if it's favorite food it's rice. it's good and easy to make and not too expensive and more importantly: my comfort food. but i also really really like potatoes with ali-oli to the point that if a bar has it that's what i'll ask for every time i won't even care about what else they offer lol

81. what are some of your bad habits?

ummm i chew my nails a lot, i bite my lips and cheeks and i pick on my skin. i also explode pimples that aren't ready to explode and it leaves mini wounds in my face lol. i start a lot of projects and finish almost none but that's adhd for you i guess?? idk if it would count. also i overthink way too much to the point that i avoid talking to people sometimes because i've convinced myself they secretly hate me. but again that's RSD so... oh also i hold way too many grudges and like. it's very hard to get on my bad side but at the same time if i end up disliking someone it can be over the smallest of things??? like i can get judgey judgey, someone could fuck up several times and i'd still be like "well i trust them to change" but if i see them littering it's an instant and hard dislike and it's very hard to get me to change my view once i've gotten there lol

Chapter 10 (timeskip)

After some years, Patrice got really close to Jerry, Vince and Darren. Even after those years she is still an intern, but she likes it. She spends more time with Michael, Mahogany and even Vendetta. Vendetta even became Faith's babysitter. Life seemed to get better, but we all know that it can't last forever. Patrice was in her bed, hugging her pillow and sleeping. She then heard loud gasp and woke up. She looked who did it, it was Jerry.

Patrice: what? Jerry: oh gosh! Oh gosh! Patrice: WHAT JERRY? Speak big boi words. Jerry: y-your tail! Patrice: haha...funny... Jerry: I am serious! Look, you have tail AND ears! Patrice: what?

She stood up and walked up to mirror. She had small fish tail and fishy ears. She looked scared.

Patrice: what the-?! Jerry: that is just...so awesome! Patrice: WHAT?! No it's not! Jerry: you are like this mermaid from anime, but with legs! Patrice: Jerry, this is serious! Stop with the anime talk! I don't want Michael to see it! Jerry: hmmm. Yeah he would punch a wall again. Patrice: okay. Ummm. Jerry go and act normal. I'm gonna go seek help from someone who knows what to do. Okay? Jerry: s-sure.

Jerry then walked out of the room. Patrice created a portal to Dreamscape. She walked in and tryed to seek Vince. It was easy to find him, since he was usually in his house. She opened the doors. Vince looked back at her and waved happily.

Vince: heeey! What's up? Patrice: tail and ears, explain! Vince: you too? Cool! Now we both evolved and ranked up! Patrice: it's not cool! I have life in human world, how will I explain it?! Vince: you know what cosplay is? Patrice: Vince...you genius! I can say it's costume! Vince: hehe! Thanks! Also cool teeth! Patrice: those too?! Vince: yeah! Darren and Olivia are more ranks up than us, but we can keep up. Patrice: I rather not. After all, look at me. Vince: hey, it's half, not full at least. Patrice: I'm afraid of being something I'm not supposed to be. You know this. What if Michael don't like fishes? Vince: don't think so much, okay? It can give you a headache. Let's wait and see. I promise that it'll not be that bad. Patrice: okay. I sometimes overthink things. Vince: me too. But you know what? When you got here, I got closer to my own fear. Vinny like you called him is pretty chill. He is cheerfull and sweet. He even helped us. You helped me. I am really greatfull about it. You changed me for better. You changed Father Time for better too. He doesn't worry anymore about the time or being a human like machine. He believes in himself now. Thanks to you. Your words are sharper than a sword. You have heart of gold and fists of steel. I believe in you, like you believe in me. Patrice: you really think so? Vince: yeah! You are more than just a human fish. You are very straight to point. You never sugarcoat. We need someone like you. You are a great friend. Even Darren thinks so. Also if you ranked up, you got costume upgrade. Let's check it out! Patrice: sure.

Patrice then changed into her Dreamscaper costume. She now had a long dark and red colored dress with gold parts on it. It was dress that Mahogany once bought for her, but more fitting and shiney. She still had her deck of cards on the side. She also had new hair pin in shape of shark's teeth. Vince smiled.

Vince: congratulations! You are now a Card Master! A luck is on your side now, heh! Patrice: this dress...is from Mahogany and Vendetta. Vince: they picked good. Also Ven?! You know him?! Patrice: yeah. Why? Vince: we are related, somehow! Vendetta knows me so well! Patrice: I bet for poking. Like you did to me. Vince: you know me so well too then. Patrice: yeah. But what should I say to Michael about it? He will see that I have this tail everyday. Vince: well, then be honest with him. He will know it someday. Good luck with that. Patrice: thanks, I guess.

She then changed to her normal pijama outfit and opened portal to her world. She waved to Vince for a goodbye and she walked in. She then walked to living room where Michael was. He was reading a newspaper.

Patrice: uncle...I have something important to say. Michael: what?

He then looked at her and got shocked. His eyes widened. He couldn't say a word and was just looking at her. He then got up, walked to bathroom, splashed his face with cold water and went back.

Michael: nope. It wasn't a dream. What happened?! Jerry: told you she is going through changes. Michael: I was thinking like woman do, Jerry! What the-?! HOW?! It doesn't make any sense! Patrice: I was surprised by it too one day. After the day I found a face mask. This day changed me. I was scared, confused. There is this other world with magic. We are fighting people's phobias. I mean, me and Vince. Today I woke up like this. Vince and others changed me too as a person. I still don't know what I'm doing, but I'm trying my best. If you'll throw me out because of this- Michael: I am not like them! I would never do this! And I don't care about fishness or what you are! You are my family, like Jerry is! Patrice: really? Michael: yeah! Now don't say things like those. Because I would never give you up like some old tire. Now sorry, I'm gonna go punch a wall.

Michael then walked out of the room and they could hear a loud sound. Faith then looked at her.

Faith: Vince is real?! Patrice: yes. And he's my friend. Faith: wooow! So cool! So you are one of the Dreamscapers?! Patrice: yeah. Still I'm an intern. Faith: I met a real Dreamscaper! This is the best time of my life! Patrice: better day will be on your b-day. I asked Vince to meet you in person. Faith: no way! YOOOOO! Vince is real AND will be here! Thank youuuuu! AAAAA! I'm so happy! Patrice: I'm glad to hear it. Jerry: so everything is good, right? Patrice: I hope so. Jerry: how will you tell this to Miss? Patrice: I'll tell her in other day.

Michael Afton x Reader

(this is gonna be my first time writing for FNAF, and Michael. This is both HC and image. Also thanks @artsyfangirl for the idea you shared)

Visual I imagine of Post!Scoop Michael look like

You can have other/different visual of him if you imagine his look different from what I imagine

Type: Fluff

Warning: Mention of child/verbal abuse, mention of blood once, belittling oneself

Pronoun: They/Them

First off, I like to think that Reader and Michael knew each other because they used to be classmates.

Yes their were classmates, they knew each other but they weren't close

Just acquaintance or that what he thought (Reader have a crush on him but he never knew, since they weren't close)

Reader really didn't get a chance to be close since they feel timid by his friends

Where in reality Michael's friends are the ones who feel timid around them

So his friends try to avoid Reader dragging Michael along them

× Time skip at Sister Location timeline ×

They both work at Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental

Reader was kinda work first before Michael and they on Morning Shift

So when Michael started to work there too, Reader was quite happy but was sad because he work at Night Shift

But they not gonna waste another chance

So everytime Reader got a chance, they tried to bond by helping him with something before his shift start or make even small conversations

"To be honest I never expected one of the honor student of the whole school would be working at this kind of place"

"Hah! This is only just a stepping stone to my dream"

He just smiled at your enthusiasm, just being with you help him relieve few of his stress he get from his Night Shift.

The two of you grew rather close with a short amount of time

"And if I didn't work here, I'd might have never would have a chance to meet you again"

They say facing him and giving him a sweet and gentle smile

He was abit puzzle on what to have said but really didn't put much thought to it, he was just happy that he finally have a chance even just being friends with Reader

Yep, Mike have a crush on Reader too before but couldn't really approach them

He mean someone like him and one of school pride in a relationship (he kinda belittle and look down himself because of William verbal abuse)

Not only that, his friends always drag him away when Reader is nearby

That why he was really surprised when they approach him and even starting conversation, but his not gonna complain

Infact, his quit happy about it

But then the time has come where he was scoop

He started to avoid Reader because of his looks

He's afraid of how or what would Reader react after seeing him

His trauma from his father abuse are returning as he keep overthinking on Reader's reaction

You were so confused on why did Michael sudden distance himself

His not even answering any of your texts or calls

Then he slowly stop coming from work

Your not sure on what wrong you may have done

But you promised yourself you wouldn't waste another chance

So you try to comfort him

When you saw blood at the scooper room

There you realize something

Good thing you know his address

You were driving on your motorcycle full speed on your way to Michael house trying not get into any road accident, but the thought that Mike might be suffering push your worry for yourself away and when you finally arrived you try to compose yourself

But it was brutally hard as you knock on his door

No answers, you knock again but no answer again

As you were to knock again

"Ummm... Excuse me do you need something?"

You finally heard that so familiar voice again and it made you relief, as you turn around you saw him but he was really cover up

"(Y/n)!?"

You just ran up him and hug him telling how worried you were for him for straight weeks.

He saw how worried you are and he honestly feel guilty for worrying you

He was tired of hiding from you and pushing his feelings for you aside.

He invited you inside his house which you of course accept

The two of you were sitting on his couch with silent filling the room

"You don't have to tell me anything if your uncomfortable with it.

But I want you to know I'm here at your side no matter what"

You softly told him with a gentle smile

He let out a sign as he slowly remove his cover, exposing his purple skin and decaying face part

He just stayed silent waiting your response, it was good solid minutes

He thought you silently left when you saw him but when he raised his head he was really surprised.

You were blushing, he was really really really surprised to see your reaction but

"I understand if you don't want to be around someone who look like me, I didn't want to bother you as well so I started to distance myself"

You quickly denied what he said and told him that he still look attractive (which I low-key do too)

He first thought you were lying to comfort him but your blazing red face say otherwise

As you bubbling out how attractive he is you accidentally slip and confess to him

"The fact that I still love you and find you attractive even after seeing-"

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It was really a solid awkward moment for the two of you until Michael broke the silence

"Still love me?"

He ask rather still astonished at the fact you still find him attractive despite being a decaying purple corpse, you also said you love him

"Yeah, ever since we became classmate"

You started to bubble again as you stand up and start making excuses like why you didn't approach him back at school and other more, covering up your embarrassment.

When he suddenly hug you, you were taken by surprise but hug back nuzzling your face at the side of his neck when he suddenly say

"I love you too (Y/n)"

Nuzzling his face at your shoulder, you just smiled and said

"Your my S/O from now on"

You happily say to him smiling, he just hugged you tighter and smile aswell, he was really happy

After a few week you suggest if one of you would move in with the other, which he happily agree

You lived in a crowded apartment so you move in at Michael house.

Michael felt awkward at first but got used to it as time past by.

You always comfort him and reassure him everytime he put himself down.

You also comfort and cuddle him everytime he has nightmares or a breakdown

There might be some down times sometimes but

All in all, you two have a pretty wholesome, healthy and a happy relationship
