Click the image to buy on Amazon Summary RSVP to my Marriage of Convenience I swore I would only get married if my life depended on it. Oh, the irony.

cookie and blossom for the ask game! @self-shippy

Thank you for these, @self-shippy! ^-^

(question source: "💌 Niicookissies' 100 follower special ask game! 💌" by niicookissies-inactive)

Hmm.. If I may stick to the Reborn focus, let's answer these for Luna, if that's alright!

🍪 Cookie - What does your F/O call you? - Luna almost always refers to my self-insert as Adriana, as opposed to other characters who tend to shorten it to Adri more of the time. However, one of the terms of endearment that I have always been very attached to the idea of Luna using is "my love". It started from a love letter I requested almost four years ago, back when I was first starting to actively selfship, and.. well, I've just always adored the concept of her using it lots ever since! So, that is also something that Luna will often call me/Adriana.

🌸 Blossom - Who fell in love first? How long did it take for each of you to realise your feelings? - That would be Luna! Her feelings grew a bit more quickly than Adriana's, partially due to being spurred on by a lot of gratitude for how Adri was able to save Gossip Gardevoir (Luna's best friend) from Elias at the Citae Astrae. She's already at the point of "I think I might be in love with her" by the time Adriana battles Radomus, and becomes completely sure of her feelings the second she realises Adri has come to help rescue her from the Subseven Sanctum (hence why she invites her to Iolia Valley).

Conversely, Adriana's feelings develop slightly more gradually, especially since - with everything else previously mentioned going on in this part of the plot - there is also a lot on her mind. With that said, she is definitely very dedicated to rescuing Luna, and becomes noticeably flustered - which is rare for her!! - when Luna gives her the crystal key for Iolia Valley. She had also noticed that Luna had developed feelings of some description for her, to some extent. So, I think both of us were aware of our feelings, and could at least be fairly confident that the other did reciprocate them, by the time Adriana obtains Luna’s Gym Badge - which is why the actual confession after the battle is.. honestly more of a formality/confirming what was already known, than anything else. But still a very nice one, to be sure ^-^

..plus, we needed that niceness and concreteness considering it was then several months until we could see each other again, which wasn't anticipated at the time.

I hope that these answers were alright!! Thank you again for sending in these questions; it really means a lot that you took the time to do so ^-^

This is one invitation they can't refuse.

The Invitation by @authoradrianalocke is now LIVE!

My Review This author always pulls me into her stories. She makes me want to be a part of the families she writes. Her stories are always funny and heartwarming. I loved the push and pull between Georgia and Ripley. The attraction they fought was so intense it had me holding my breath at times. Ripley has loved her for years. The Brewers owe a favor, and Ripley is picked to do the job. Sutton needs help, and begs Georgia for help to save her dating show. Throw Ripley & Georgia together for a fake dating show, and you get funny “fake” dating that shows them that they have always loved one another. I LOVED it!

What the hell?? Pt.2

A young lady who was a model lived on earth ended in a tragic way.. and ended up in hell somehow? While she cant hurt a fly.. Right?

Warning!!: Cursing, Smoking, Drinking.

Part 1.

" Welcome to the Vees my dear.." Vellvette said smiling, taking lipstick from her pocket. "Pucker up" I bent down to her height as she put that dark shade of lipstick on me " Now your ready." She smirked putting the lipstick away and grabbing a different phone from bag

"I never got your name" She typed away on the phone chewing bubblegum.

" It's Y/N.." she typed some more. " I made you a social media account" Throwing an object that looks like a phone at me. " It's the latest Hellphone.. enjoy it." She smiled. " Pose dear" She pulled out her phone pointing it at the mirror. As i leaned into her smiling.

" Posted!" She typed away. "Let's get you back to val and vox." I nodded following her to another room that looked like another office.

I felt my phone go off like crazy, opening an app called Sinstagram? opening my account Darling_Y/N? seeing 200K followers in a minute? Looking at the tagged post.

-Say Hello to our new play thing.. Y/N <3 @ Darling_Y/N

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Good Afternoon, My name is Katie Killjoy." " And i'm Tom Trench"

"This afternoon we've got some SPICY gossip about the Overlords." Katie said, showing her spiky smile.

"but also tonight we will have a speech by Lucifer Himself! with the one and only Princess of Hell Charlie." Tom said putting some papers aside. "Stay tuned for more!" She smiled. The camera cutting off " Were done here Bitch." She cursed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE VEL?!" Vox yelled angrily, destroying a tv in the process.

" Chill Gramps." It's just a post." She laughed taking a seat patting the chair next to her. " A SMALL POST?! SHE'S GOING VIRAL IT'S BEEN 4 MINUTES!" he yelled more. " At Least She's trending." she said as i took a seat next to her.

"Have you figured out what your talent is?" Val Stood across me smoking some more. i nodded showing my hands as they lit up. Making a dress out of thin air. "That's quite interesting.." Val walked closer holding the object... Vox calmed down.

" Can you make lingerie?" Val smiled.

"i can try?" I made a white set with angel wings..

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey Y/N you ready for the runway?" The staff said. Fixing my hair and the cast putting the finishing touches of my makeup. "Yes." I walked to the stage curtain in full confidence " You're on in 3..2..1!" As she said that, I walked to the stage of the Victoria's secret angels catwalk.

Walking around in full confidence smiling at the camera posing and giving the camera a kiss and a wave. walking back spinning around taking one last pose as I walked to the curtain behind screens.

staff helping me take off the heavy wings off as they slip a robe around me, walking to the lounge for the models grabbing a smoothie. as i heard more heels clank around me. " hey Y/N right?" A voice said behind me. Turning around revealing a gorgeous woman with brown wavy hair with full lips. " My name is Adriana" She smiled while grabbing a drink. She had amazing face, Body and posture. I wish i was more like her.

"I loved your walk by the way" She checked her phone. "Thank you! It's such an honor meeting you" I smiled mentally slapping myself for saying that. " No, it's my pleasure. I've been seeing you alot these days, you're going to be a great kid." She waved giving me an air kiss. I walked to my changing room putting my drink down hearing moans in the bathroom. "Honey?" I took off my heels slipping on fuzzy slippers. walking closer to the bathroom that wasn't locked leaning my ear on the door.

"What if we get caught.." A woman said "She won't. just focus on me" that voice.. I kicked the door open. " What's going on here?" I stood there shocked to see my boyfriend shirtless with a model. "how could you Kyara.." I pulled her by her hair away from him. " Ow ow owowow-" she yelled as I dragged her by her hair out of my changing room. " Just you wait.." I closed the door and locked it.

" Let me explain, dear.." He put his hands up. " No explanation. Leave.. were done." I yelled angrily. as heels clanked behind me. yelling at him. turning around to look at the sound as Kyara my best friend was holding a crowbar as my boyfriend held me still 

before i knew it i woke up in hell..
