[35253319]

GET YOU A HUMAN WHO CHECKS UP ON YOU WHEN YOU TRY TO IGNORE THEM‼️🥱

[palskippah]

I love your fan babies so so much omg but will. ..will we ever see a grown up version of the babies pwease? 🥺

Hi! Thanks very much! 💕💕💕 and yeah!

I suppose you meant adults now that I'm re-reading it, but I drew this quickly to show them a bit bigger but still very baby (in Mario's eyes-)!

I actually liked the sketch so I might come back to it and do lineart and coloring sjsjdj

(the quality's always so bad on phone and I think it's because of my canvas' size ajdkdh sorry 😔)

Edit: I changed the sketch because it was too sketchy and the pink made me strain my eyes askjdsad (it's 2 am i should go to sleep 😔)

[laylawatermelon]

Please please read this and give it some love but I had an inkling of this feeling but never mentioned it cause I thought it was absurd.

Basically its a tweet of a reddit post (inception ik) basically of how Tim is basically rewriting the characters back to the way they were.

More below 👇🏾

Everyone's been mentioning how the characters have been more in character and the actors are happy and that makes sense.

He's been making them more in character than they ever were.

And with the Buddie situation (yes not everything is about them but i am a buddie fan who happened to find and grow to love this show because of it) it makes the most sense.

Now that Oliver mentioned the love story and everyone assumed it was the shooting and being in live it made the most sense.

Who else was he going to be falling in love woth at the time? It surely wasn't Taylor. Their romantic relationship was always doomed to fail and it was a great friendship they had (ehhh sideye for Bobby situation and Jonah eventually) that lasted if they weren't too persnally involved in each others lives.

She'd have been a perfect friend for him to gossip about the drama at the 118 (not work cause you know she'd make a story). That relationship wasn't going to work. He's too honest and she's too opportunisic.

If it hadn't been Jonah it'd be something else and he'd feel the same sense of betrayal (also Buck kissing Lucy was betrayal but that also felt a lil like assult cause she got him reallllly drunk and if the roles were reversed people wouldn't be that enthusiastic about it).

The only other love story that's been written logically as a will they won't they tragic and emotionally complex story is Buck and Eddie's.

Season 2 he replaced his love intrest! Like come on!

But in all seriousness, the Ana breakup and ll the vague dollow your heart is basically being rehashed.

I remember someone mentioning that Marisol is just another Ana (whoever you are if you see this send me hit I'll put it in here) and that's actually true.

Yay Marisol no last name haters your time has arrived cause it's official she's done!

There's no worry because we're getting a conclusion on the fact that was supposed to happen years ago.

She's not a permanent structure.

This storyline can go two ways.

One Buddie confirmed season 8.

Or two, Eddie realizes what his family could look like and its a single parent home with a support system from work (and Buck but we're gonna just gloss over that for now).

Meta linked above I just talked about Eddie and its coming to fruition (hire me abc im getting better at screenwriting!).

For the first one it's juicy storytelling.

For the other it makes sense as development for Eddie becoming comfortable with himself apart from his identity as a husband/widower, son, Catholic, and father.

He'll learn to bebhimself which he hadn't had the opportunity to do as he had fell into adulthood with his kid and then added on having a child with a disability that needs a lot of monetary support he ended up losing the chance to figure out who he is without all of that.

Even if it's not romantic (😔) it's great for him to realize he doesn't really need to be with anyone or fulfill a role he's not ready or willing to fill due to duty.

He can just be a father and work it iut that way.

Chris only wants his dad happy and I sense he knows his dad isn't happy at times or even worse he's not happy but is pretending so that his dad can be happy as he feels he has to give him that space/approval.

Chris is getting a storyline and he's always been observant so he'll most likely either explode in his feelings and tell his dad or tell him in a misunderstanding (he is getting to be a moody teen after all it's not going to be an adult reaction).

He's been close to death, heard his dad lose it and loat his mom. He's more mature than people give him credit for but the story hadn't included him much recently so we'll just have to see.

Link Character Analysis Pt. 1

Child Link

Just as a little note here, by “Child Link” I am talking about the child version of Link from BOTW

What was he like?

Unfortunately, we don’t know much about Child Link in game besides what we learn from the Mipha memory and Mipha’s Diary (BOTW DLC):

- He’s described as “curious and full of energy with a ready smile”

- Has “exceptional swordsmanship” only at “about 4 years of age”! AND he was literally going against adult knights and even beat them! Why that was allowed, I’ll get to that later…

- He’s very impressed by magic!

Where did he live?

Ok. This one’s an unpopular opinion for some people but here’s what I found.

- According to Creating a Champion (pg. 376) , Link had likely started his childhood in Hateno Village.

- HOWEVER, also according to Mipha’s Diary, the KING sent a group of knights to the Zora Domain. The same group of knights that Child Link was with. MEANING that even though Link may have at least been born in Hateno Village, he must’ve ended up in Castle Town, where he spent the rest of his childhood, gaining traction as a gifted swordsman.

Link’s Family

I may be cheating a little on this one, but by also looking at past Zelda games, I can kind of piece together what his family is like.

- In Memory #11 (Shelter From the Storm), Zelda makes the first mention, probably in Zelda game history, of Link’s father who was a knight.

- Although I’m sure Zelda was talking about Link when she gives the comment “Your commitment to the training necessary to fulfill your goal is really quite admirable,” I think she was also still comparing Link to his Father’s journey of becoming a knight. According to Creating a Champion, Link is NOT of nobility. And unlike all the “likelys” and “maybes” that this book says about most of Link’s past, this information is for certain. Therefore, Link’s father would have had to work HARD to rise the ranks to be personally asked by the King to go to the Zora Domain with the other Hyrulian knights with him.

- Strangely enough, just a few paragraphs before this, Link is said to be born into a line of knights. These could also probably have been Hateno knights too

- This is the point where I’m slightly cheating. In the Japanese version of Creating a Champion, there’s a whole TWO PAGES of concept art that us English speakers are missing out on. 😔 On one of those pages, we can see an image of a (what looks like) 12 year old Link with an older man and a little girl. The man may look older than a father but, after what Zelda said, this can likely be Link’s Father!

- And the little girl would likely be Link’s little sister! Unfortunately, there’s no evidence in the game that Link had a little sister, but after looking at the Wind Waker game for reference, I have a feeling this girl is supposed to be BOTW’s version of Aryll. She even looks like she loves Cucco’s while Aryll in Wind Waker loves seagulls! I could go on about what this means for Link and his backstory, but then that would be touching “spoiler territory” for my duology, and I don’t want to do that just yet!

Link’s Childhood Friends

Most of Link’s friends that are mentioned in game are actually Zora! Although I’m sure he had some Hylian friends as well.

- Bazz: Was the leader of the Big Bad Bazz Brigade (BBBB). Link trained him sword fighting (or at least the “art of the blade”).

- Rivan: him and Link used to swim together when they were kids. Also a part of the BBBB

- Gaddison: her and Link used to play together as kids. She was also part of the BBBB, known as the heroine.

- Mipha: she used to heal Link whenever he would get hurt in training.

I’m not adding Kodah to the list because (I assume!) she didn’t “befriend” him until he was older

unfortunately I can't find a clip of Bazz talking about the BBBB, but believe me that it's in the game!

[stobinesque]

for the lovely little follower celebration (congrats on 250 btw!! thats awesome!!!):

Scoops Troop (platonic + sfw obv) Sleepover!!

no squicks or triggers really, but im not a big fan of the focus being them talking about a steve ship. other than that, go crazy! 💕

Thanks Devon!! 🫶💚

I have another Sccops Troop fill that I will probably post today or tomorrow (it is still over 250 words 😔) and one thing I am discovering about me is that if I have Scoops Troop in a room together those assholes are just gonna Bicker the whole time. (I love them so much).

prompt: 'sleepover' | wc: 250 | rating: G | Scoops Troop

"Making friendship bracelets is literally a sleepover staple, Dustin." Erica shoved her face all the way into his space as she spoke.

"Yeah, well, I'm not doing it!” Dustin folded his arms, stubborn expression firmly in place.

Like an immovable object and an unstoppable force. Robin wasn’t sure who was which.

"Ugh, this is pointless. We all know Sinclair’s gonna win this, Henderson."

Dustin squinted at Steve. "So what, you're telling me that King Steve is gonna go around Hawkins wearing a friendship bracelet?"

"Dude, don't call me that. And I thought you were supposed to be observant. Robs and I have been wearing friendship bracelets for months, now." Steve raised his arm in demonstration, showing off the red-and-blue bracelet Robin’d made him after finding an old stash of embroidery floss.

"See, even Steve knows what's up,” Erica snapped.

"Hey!”

"Shut up."

"I'm the adult here, I don't have to take this!"

"Excuse me, who was it that saved you two fools from being tortured by Russians?"

"She’s gotta point, Steve," Robin muttered.

"I'd like to return the subject at hand," Dustin broke in. "I am not wearing a bracelet!"

Steve rolled his eyes. "Weren't you the one lecturing me about ‘leaving behind’ primal stereotypes? What, you scared wearing a bracelet is too girly? What’s that if not primal!"

"Primitive."

"You aren't winning this argument just because you know words better, Henderson."

Robin groaned. “Auugh. How about this, dorkus: think of it as…a Scoops Troop medal of honor.”

“…fine.”

I’m celebrating 250 followers! Send in a pairing and a (one word) prompt for a drabble!

Get to know you - Sims Style

Thank you to @rstarsims3 for the tag! 😊 What’s your favorite Sims death? None, I never let my sims die anymore because I get too attached to them 😂

Alpha CC or Maxis Match? I prefer Maxis Match, but I don't mind throwing in a bit of Alpha here and there.

Do you cheat your sims weight? I've only ever made one of my female sims less buff, but she proceeded to get very buff again so I just left her.

Do you move objects? Yes, but mainly just decorations and things like that.

Favorite Mod? I don't really play as much anymore, so it's hard for me to tell but I definitely cannot live without NRaas Mods and LD's Smooth Patch that's for sure.

First Expansion/Game Pack/Stuff Pack? Probably the first EP that I actually wanted was either Generations or Pets, because my mom already had other ones that I wasn't interested in enough to remember (definitely Late Night though, I do remember one time randomly turning one of my mom's families all into vampires when I was like 7 or 8 😂).

Do you pronounce live mode like aLIVE or LIVing? aLIVE.

Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? My most favorite would be Mari Martinez, who was a gen 3 sim from my old legacy save from a couple years ago that I happened to really like. She went through a few changes though 👀 Left is how she is now and the right is her from the legacy save. The one on the bottom is her and her husband Enzo 🥰

I do love this family right above as well though, I used to play them a lot before and occasionally now 😄 Have you made a simself? I have, my profile pic is actually supposed to be me and my dalmatian dog Disney (who's passed on now). It doesn't really look like me at all though because my sim making skills are pretty bad and even the hair color is too light but you get the general look 😅 Which is your favorite EA hair color? I've always preferred brown hair, but I like any hair color.

Favorite EA hair? I like a lot of hairs, I don't know which one to choose from.

Favorite life stage? Young adult and toddler stage 😄

Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay? I'm actually more in it for the creation of mods hehe, but I do like to just sit and play sometimes, especially in TS2, and I do love building houses but mostly in TS2 as well because it does get a bit frustrating with TS3 and how laggy it can get with the create-a-style tool.

Are you a CC creator? I've made a few things here and there, so I guess so!

Do you have any Simblr friends or a Sim Squad? I have a couple friends, there's definitely a lot of lovely people here as well and if anyone wants to be my friend I'm open to it 😊 Do you have any sims merch? Sadly, no 😔

Do you have a YouTube for sims? I did once upon a time, it was mostly just me sharing my process of creating animations but I kind of just left it. How has your “Sims style” changed throughout your years of playing? When I first started playing probably over a decade ago I just used to create couples and make them have like 5 kids, then kick the kids out when they reached adults then make the couple have more kids and the cycle pretty much never ended 😂 Then I started to play more legacies and tried challenges, but as always I got too attached to my sims and I couldn't continue them. Then I got into making mods and so here I am, I don't really actually play much anymore. Who’s your favorite CC creator? I love most of the stuff from @xiasimla, @sim-songs, @johziii, @nectar-cellar and a few others.

How long have you had Simblr? I think 2 years now? I just used to lurk around and download CC at first but then I decided I wanted to post my things here too 😄

How do you edit your pictures? Sometimes I don't edit them, but if I do I use Photoshop to enhance the vibrance and add in a bit of depth of field. Though I've finally gotten reshade to work now so I probably won't edit them anymore.

What expansion/ gamepack is your favorite? My favorites are Generations, Pets, Seasons, Island Paradise and Master Suite Stuff. I'm sure most people have already done this but if you haven't then I'll tag you! 😄

[twothpaste]

Giegue/giygas for the ask game, maybe?

First impression: I learned about Giygas through internet osmosis long before I even thought to play EarthBound. All the usual "ooooh this game is secretly sooo dark" and "he's ack-chewally an aborted fetus, see, oooo" kinda shit. I remember it giving me the impression Mother was way scarier and edgier than it turned out to be. (I played games like OFF and Yume Nikki first though. So by the time I got around to Mother, it was very refreshing to play somethin bright & uplifting at its core, lmao.) (In retrospect, I kinda wish Giygas wasn't among the first things every prospective player is told about the EarthBound. Going into the Giygas battle blind seems like it would've rearranged my brain molecules, and I wish I'd gotten to experience it like that.) I forget when exactly I learned about Giegue (I didn't get to play M1 blind either), but I'm pretty sure my first impression was honestly pretty neutral? The imposing presence of a huge alien spaceship, 8-bit sci-fi machinery, and a barely legible creature in a capsule was pretty wicked to see for myself the first time though!

Impression now: Giygas is a big triple decker chocolate layer cake worth of metaphor & symbolism. The existential horror of growing up, the fear of losing who you fundamentally are in the process, the horrific inhumanity adults are capable of, the hopelessness of coming to terms with the world as it is, and so on. Not really a character per se, but the quintessential globular slurry of adolescent angst Ness & pals've gotta contend with. Giegue is a bittersweet little story about a broken family. An internal conflict between vengeance, familial love, and maybe where one's obligations lie? Cool antagonist for sure. I wanna like him more than I do (M1's cryptic hands-off approach to storytelling is hard for me to sink my teeth into 😔). I've speculatively written (and drawn a comic for the upcoming zine 😉) about how Giegue became Giygas, and read some good fics on the topic. In the canon we're given, though? There's really so little binding them together narratively or thematically… I have a difficult time reconciling the two, in the context of the games themselves. Mother 2 in general feels more like a reboot than a sequel - and there's hardly if any "lore" weaving Giegue & Giygas together - so Itoi's choice to declare they're one and the same just seems kinda odd to me. C'est la vie. Fan creators make do.

Favorite moment: The Giygas battle, but like, before he goes sicko mode. When he's bound to a chamber of wires and innards, reflecting Ness' face back at him, and it turns out our fervently raving buddy Porky is actually the one in "control". The atmosphere is so intense and unnerving, such a bizarre yet captivating way to ramp things up. There's like, this sense of stomach-churning dread, as you begin - if only scarcely - to realize the alien overlord you were expecting is an entity far more powerful and personal and helpless and incomprehensible than you ever could've imagined. I mean. You know, because the internet spoiled you when you were 11. But in the bigness of the moment it still makes my mitochondria itch on a primal and cellular level. /pos. Love it.

Idea for a story: My favorite Giegue thing is the vague implication (??) of whatever the hell George did to to him. Y'know, whatever made him hate humanity so much. Whenever I see fan content speculating on how George might've experimented on him or mistreated him I do in fact Feel Somethin' There. (I have been a sucker for angsty-creature-in-a-lab stories from the time I saw Mewtwo Strikes Back in kindergarten all the way to Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 a couple months ago, and I don't suppose I'll ever be sick of 'em.) The conflict it introduces between George and Maria is intriguing too. Like, her husband's treating her dearly beloved child like a science project? Trying to extract the secrets of PSI from his oversized alien brain?? You know if this kinda shit went down, those two were on a caliber of divorce drama the world has rarely seen.

Unpopular opinion: I really like Giegue design interpretations that're freaky and grotesque and biologically unfamiliar. When the beast isn't just mammalian in nature. Truly out of this world.

Favorite relationship: A mean-spirited but otherwise ordinary 13-year-old willingly aligned himself with the alien emodiment of all things evil. And the alien embodiment of all things evil willingly let the kid be his right-hand man. And I'm normal about it. EarthBound tells us basically nothing about how Porky n' Giygas' partnership in crime came to be, but speculating about it sends me into a shark frenzy. Porky seeking power over the world that wronged him, at literally any cost. Giygas weaponizing a child's worst, most vengeful impulses. Porky ultimately usurping Giygas, at least in terms of agency. Witnessing the absolute horror his "master" becomes, and simply sidestepping out of the universe itself to dodge the mess he brought about. I like to imagine there was a period where Giygas was still cognizant enough to maintain a rapport with Porky - and that the two of them fucking hated each other. Both of 'em using the other as a means to an end, assured in the conviction they're the one with the upper hand. And they're kind of both wrong. Bloaw up da worl.

Favorite headcanon: Giegue/Giygas speaks (telepathically?) with a rural midwestern accent. Courtesy of the fine folks who raised him. Other aliens probably think it's weird and mondo cringe, but are too intimidated to say so.

B, L, X?

B - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.

As far as things I actively ship and not stuff I think is just kinda cute: Stevencest or Bispearl (kinda).

I was not a Stevencest person for quite a while- or I guess not what I personally figured a Stevencest person was supposed to be. I had people in my old server shipping it and I had an AU that while not intended to be that, I was okay with people shipping together the two Stevens for (though way down the road it did eventually turn into that lol), so my opposition to it was mainly that it wasn't for me based on the type of content I usually saw of it. Like this isn't my thing and it's kinda weird but if it's tagged so I can block it, sure go nuts. (There was also a LOT of Connie and Connverse Hate + NTR in Stevencest spaces and as a big fan of Connie I didn't want to be in places where I would constantly hear people shitting on one of my favorite characters. Steven has two hands!!). Basically the barrier to entry was too costly for me so I just kept my distance.

Last year though I got to know more people in this fandom and had the chance to freely experiment with my characters in ways I couldn't before, so I've grown to enjoy it a lot more. Being told "Hey, you can like. Do what you Want," was very helpful in pushing me to branch out. I have a lot more fun now doing things I like and ignoring people who do things I hate lmao

I'm not sure if Bispearl counts but it was something that NEVER crossed my mind until Bismuth Casual first aired and a light bulb went off in my head. I was into that almost instantly the moment it was shown to me.

(And more recently with the Rose/Bismuth art the Becky Sucrose dropped, now I can do the Pearl/Rose/Greg/Bismuth polycule of my dreams <3 Though in the context of canon Bispearl is the most reasonable/logical ship to me.)

L - Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves. (Characters you’re neutral about are fair game, as are characters you merely dislike. Characters that you absolutely loathe with the fire of ten thousand suns are exempt, as there is no point in giving yourself an aneurysm over a character that you hate.)

I do not like Jasper much and her fanbase tends to be obnoxious BUT she is a very well-made character. She is consistent and straightforward in her motivations and goals and weaknesses in a way that in theory is easy to grasp (which is why I'm so shocked so many people don't seem to really Get her at all). When people say the writers screwed her over I disagree, because she does exactly what she is meant to do in the story and then fucks off, something I cannot say for several other characters LOL

At the end of the day, Steven Universe is about... well, Steven Quartz Universe, and the way Jasper serves his arc is more than enough for me :3

She's also really funny when used right and more people should use her for comedic effect

X - A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.

Found family is something I'm a sucker for and I tend to like ensemble casts that have well-developed and interesting dynamics (platonic or romantic) between the characters, but I'm not sure if that counts as a fandom thing or a media in general thing. I'll be honest, I don't participate much in fandoms. SU is the first time I've engaged heavily in the fan areas VS just consuming Canon Material With a Chance of Fanart so the things I like trope-wise are less broad and more specific to just SU.

I also like fan kids or just seeing younger characters as adults in the future. It's fun to muse about, downside is if the ship you like is not mainstream enough you'll be sorely lacking in that category 😔

[oflightningandstars]

🤩/😔/😍/🎁!! (The one about a specific character is for Moocho, of course)

Love you lots, friend!!! I hope today is going well for you :)

Thank you for the ask!!!

🤩 - a WIP snippet about or with dialogue from Moocho! My beloved <333

A small woman, with Moocho’s dark hair and eyes stepped out. “Hi, Mom,” Moocho said quietly and suddenly they were hugging, his mom’s grip was fierce for all that she lacked her son’s stature. Moocho squeezed back, trying to pour every ounce of ache for missing her into it. And then, as quickly as the hug had begun, it stopped, Moocho’s mother stepping back with an easy grin. “It’s been too long,” she said, and Moocho hadn’t realized how much he missed her voice. “I know. I’m sorry."

AHHHHHHHHHHH. Moocho's mom my beloved <333333

😔 - published lines or a section of a fic that was super sad, angsty, or difficult to write?

This is from This head is a hospital, someone please tend to it.

Eventually, she heard the front door open. That would be Milligan. She was glad he was home, but she was also not sure she wanted to talk to him right now. No doubt one of the other adults was going to tell him what had happened at dinner any minute now, and he would want to see her. Kate really didn’t want him to worry about her, to know just how much she was hurting. She also felt a little ashamed, if she was being honest with herself. Kate wasn’t supposed to be the emotional one, Kate didn’t break down crying to the point of having to miss meals, that wasn’t her. With a sigh, Kate buried her face into her pillow and waited for the inevitable.

Waiting for the inevitable "being told on" (not really but that's how it feels) is. not fun dkjfjasdflk (guy who managed to get upset in class pretty much always the week of parent-teacher conferences and was always just. waiting afterwords to see if it had been mentioned). This entire fic was also very sad and angsty to write. It was surprisingly not too difficult to write I just needed to get it out of my brain <3

😍 - published lines or a section of a fic that you loved writing?

So I loved writing the entirety of Return Address. But in the interest of not just posting the entire fic again, I will say this bit:

But years passed, and Moocho darned tents and costumes, learned embroidery stitches, baked pies for the rest of the circus. He met a little girl, so full of life, and found himself looking after her, in quiet ways (she was too independent to accept anything else, and Moocho’s heart broke for her every time she insisted on doing something herself, all of seven years old). He comforted her after a fall left her arms and legs scraped up and bleeding, holding her hand while the circus medic patched her up and thought “maybe someday, maybe this,” and then shook the thought away as Kate jumped up and ran off, seemingly back to her regular cheerful mood.

Moocho <3333 "Maybe someday, maybe this" absolutely destroyed me when I wrote it. Also the part when Moocho's letter to his mom has a return address because they're safe now.

🎁- name a published gift fic someone has given you that you love and can't recommend enough (be sure to tag the author. Or if you don't have an AO3 or haven't been gifted a fic, what kind of fic would you like to be gifted?)

I haven't been gifted a fic, I think I would cry (/positive) if someone did dklfajdlksa. As for what kind of fic, I don't think I would have preferences really. Like, angst and fluff are both so good ahhhhhh. <33333

[snallavanta]

exclusive fairytale review (not biased) (but i also watched this because of jun and for jun only)

i just want to start this off by saying i was not jun-biased before watching this but i definitely am after 🤠

^ accurate representation of my reaction every time jun appeared on screen (as both jun & lingchao)

the storyline is extremely cliché. like if you cannot handle cringe and predictable dialogue, you will hate this. the fmc is the epitome of cringe and the mmc is the typical "i hate everyone in the world but you". it's cute sometimes but also gets boring real quick.

there are also multiple tropes involved which sometimes got a bit too much because it felt like they were just trying to shove in as many fictional concepts as possible. tropes include enemies-to-lovers, childhood friends-to-lovers, love triangle, only one bed, grumpy + sunshine (there are probably more but i cannot recall them rn).

that being said, despite the fmc & mmc being pretty basic characters in a rom-com, i adored them. they complemented each other's energies so well and it somehow... works? despite them practically being siblings the first half of the show?

the pacing of the show is a bit odd. they spend a lot of time during the high school phase then there's a bit of a time skip to fmc's time in college. she goes through like one year of university then she's an intern for a while. she becomes a full-fledged adult and suddenly she's engaged and married. i found the last few episodes (20 onwards) to be a bit abrupt. there was also this super weird part where fmc wakes up and has amnesia and forgot she has been engaged for the past 3 years? what the hell was that about... speaking of which, there is a lot of "telling, not showing" in the last episodes which i found annoying. it's such a lazy way of storytelling.

okay the lead actors. look, as much as i love jun, my guy looks exhausted half the time. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. i'll give him a chance because i know it's his first huge acting gig as one of the leads.

as for the actor for the fmc (i don’t know what’s her name rn), she's great. she brings innocent childish joy to a character in a surprisingly accurate way. she was also not embarrassing which i appreciate.

okay but you combine them together and it's a little bit of a disaster. they're good when they have lines and they're bantering with each other and being silly with one another but when it comes to the intimate scenes, it just feels so fucking awkward. i'm sorry but jun is eating her face out and she's kind of just... there. i get that her character is supposed to be quirky & innocent but even when she's supposedly ~into~ it, my girl just does not look like she knows what to do. and the waist pulls just feels incredibly awkward. i think jun is doing too much and she is doing too little. idk. everything about them being intimate just feels awkward to me (and no it is not because they were initially siblings).

also i just wanna talk about the other romantic relationship going on in the show which is jia siwen and jiang juanjuan's relationship. i feel like the writers were trying to make their relationship the type where the audience would root for them but i felt that they were not a good match lol. jiang juanjuan finds fault in jia siwen over the smallest things—like why the fuck are you mad at your boyfriend for not texting you for TWO DAYS when you KNOW he's going to be in the fucking mountains, most probably with no signal, during that period. i get that it's your birthday in that time period but it's not that big a deal, especially since you know he might not be able to contact you during that period. i'm sorry, this girl infuriates me. she only got a pass because she's just a fangirl like me 😔

overall, i like the show. it's not my favourite rom-com but it definitely did it's job of being both rom and com. if you like jun, or just seventeen in general, watch this. trust, even if jun is not in your bias line or a bias wrecker or bias whatever, you will be a jun stan after watching this. if you're a casual rom-com watcher, this would probably be like every other rom-com so don't have too high hopes about it. this is definitely not a cinematic masterpiece but it did make me happy watching it.

[celestie0]

HI ELLIE!!! Omg, I just started reading IHM. I was originally going to hold off until it was done (or mostly done), because I'm a serial monogamist when it comes to a series (RIGHT NOW I AM LOYAL TO KICKOFF lol), but I ended up reading IHM anyways for some reason. I LOVE IT SOOOO MUCH. I know that we're only two chapters in, but I always love and adore how much thought goes into your characters and writing. I found myself giggling the whole way through lul. One thing I noticed after chapter 2 is as much as Gojo annoys reader, he's also strangely attentive to her needs and is a complete foil to Choso. I'm sure this was supposed to be obvious, but I thought it was very sweet how he called her beautiful in the dress (the same dress that Choso didn't acknowledge her in) and how the ring he picked for her was similar to one that she had saved in her wedding mood board. I'm pretty sure it's not exactly intentional on Gojo's part (or maybe it is?? hehe), but I thought it was an interesting detail. Also, I know this is within spoiler territory, so don't feel obligated to answer this, but how angsty will it get between reader and Gojo's relationship? :,) I know that they're both still healing from personal trauma from their past relationships, so will that come into play as they develop feelings for each other? It seems that Gojo is hesitant to talk about his divorce, so would that be a factor or an obstacle that will hinder him from getting too close to reader? Can't wait for future chapters!!! <3 Thank you for spoiling us *__*

OH MY LOVE THIS IS SO SWEET N CUTE N MADE MY ENTIRE DAY!!! PLS???

omg i feel you about the serial monogamy towards one series/show at a time 🤣 except for me it’s probs just hyperfixation 💀 but i’m so happy you decided to give ihm a read 🥺💕 it means sososososo much to me n i’m really excited for the seriesss

AWW IM GONNA SOB TYSM i have put quite a bit of thought into the characters in ihm bc i really want it to be like a web? of interactions btwn them all, and i’m so glad you saw that choso is foil to gojo!! yes!! he is very attentive to her, and i think sometimes it’s intentional n other times it’s just bc they’re meant to be honestly 😭💕 we’ll see that reader too is very vigilant too despite everything she’s got going on :”) i LOVED writing the scene where he calls her beautiful in the dress, every girl deserves to be called pretty in a dress she really adores!! and yeah the ring was totally coincidental but 🤣 again i guess they’re meant to be? hahaha

yesss i think there will be quite a bit of angst between the too, mostly surrounding their ex lovers, and just in general their pasts. i kinda wanted it where reader has lived in town her whole life (childhood home) whereas gojo mysteriously moved in next door less than a year ago, so they both don’t know much about each other despite being next door neighbors. but honestly i think a lot of the angst actually comes from secondary plotlines that end up bringing reader n gojo together!! but there will still be angst between them for suuuure 😭😔 yes gojo is very hesitant to speak up ab his divorce, sorry i simply cannot write gojo without avoidant personality bc i feel like he bottles up a lot in the show too so it just felt fitting 💀😞 but for reader too, i think she kinda…doesnt care to learn much about him as of right now bc she finds him annoying lol, and then later on when she has feelings i think it’ll be too painful for her to learn ab certain things too…so yes definitely i can see how they both would avoid their feelings and instead do the thing most adults do and joke about their feelings to lighten tension or completely avoid them all together 😃😃 (or do i just need therapy loool)

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS ASK my love :”) hope you have a wonderful day/evening/night!! much love from me <33

BIG MOOD PATHETIC SCARAMOUCHE IS SO FUNNY HES RLY THE LITTLE MEOW MEOW😭 need him to be absolutely obsessed w me but he’s too embarrassed that he wants to hold my hand so he pretends to hate me and im like “ that’s mice sweetheart what di you want for dinner?” Saw someone make a dc where you ignore him for like 5 days and he’s on his knees begging like “PLEASE LOOK AT ME” like thats so real to me😭😭 bc once you’ve given him affection he’s gunna do everything to keep it within his grasp😔 ALSO HE DEF WOULD TIE YOU UP AND LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN💀 childe and singora are so casual about it😭 when he comes back they talk like you’re not even there “how long have they been here?” “I lost count after the fourth hour” “ they’re still conscious I’m impressed” like he’s such an asshole but he will do the 🥺🥺👉🏼👈🏼”can I have a hug” afterwards💀 love that for him. Keeps him in my pocket like a little purse dog, he’s my guard dog boyfriend bc he will kill first and ask questions later. “ I don’t like how he looked at you” “he’s the waiter” AND YOOOO DONT EVEN LET DOTTORE UGLY ASS COME CLOSE TO YOU ITS OVER FR-don’t like his new design he’s just a creep like I was the “clones” back the short haired funny scientist dude like I like them unhinged in a clown way!! He’s fuckable, the abusive leather daddy dom on the other hand😒 like he’s fun if he has a tired annoyed uncle personally like he lives to bully childe. But just going around threatening scaramouche and collei bc I forgot he did experiments on her too in the manga is musty like that mask is lame!! WHERE IS THE CLOWN KING😡- he would reflexively go for his throat like he opens his mouth and suddenly his throat is slit “ my bad I got anxious” SGDHSHS UNDERSTANDABLE😭😭😭 and the streets is saying he’s gunna have a claymore??? BE SERIOUS HES A SCIENTISTS TWINK WHOS HUNCHED IVER IN A LAB ALL DAY HE CANT CARY THAT SHIT??

I would beat his ASS like if you don’t get your ass out my face looking like an X-ray 😒 like be bothering all them people bc he wants so ass he weights 70 pounds soaking wet so he needs to borrow childes body weight

no exACTLY. listen, i love mean!scaramouche as much as the next person but if he's not obsessed then i dont want him. pathetic!scaramouche is the best scaramouche

i saw this scaralumi fanart of him drunk at a bar and diluc calls lumine to calm scara down and when she answers hes like 'hey ugly' and she hangs up and he starts crying again and ugh it's too perfect like that artist captured his best side with that simple fanart heheh

HAHAH yeah scaramouche is the worst bc he would do something so mean to you like ignore you while working but the second he finds out youre mad at him he'll be begging for your attention like he didn't just starve you for two days.... hes a great yandere me thinks-

Scaramouche = purse dog is the best comparison ive ever read T T

Maybe if he were cuter I would also be obsessed w him but he's so..... eh- LOL i like the clones better than him! (rip to the clones :-(() but also.... him being ugly is kinda the appeal? am i right??? i can never make up my mind-

dottore is supposed to have a CLAYMORE?!

also isn't dottore one of the top three strongest in the fatui??? right i think....? i seriously dont know how but tbh i dont care! i just focus on mr hottie soooooooooooo sexy capitano teehee

This is such a weird feeling to have a “detached-crush” on someone. I like it though, it feels both unhealthy and healthy at the same time.

I love being around him and the time we spend together is so intoxicating. I like the way he smells and I like looking at him. Our weekends together are like a fever dream, and we talk all week. I got him to leave a shirt here 😈 so I can keep smelling him. I wear it to bed every night like a simp.

But at the same time I’m detached and I don’t feel myself slipping into the “I want him here every day every moment every second “ “what are his hobbies, I’ll play video games with you 🥺” “who is that you are talking to?”

It’s like our weekends are so intoxicating that my brain can actually tell me: this is for weekends only because we are not going to get addicted to this like we let ourselves get addicted to others in the past.

It’s so nice to have my own place 😭 it’s so nice to have my own space to decorate and exist in.

Why do I feel like me coming into this situation saying “I’m just using you” , is actually the most healthy feeling “situation” I’ve felt in … honestly… this just feels like the most healthy ever 🤣. Do you think it is my medication? Or that I’m doing this with someone I find attractive but my ego doesn’t think we could ever “go steady with because society and life experiences” like it’s nice to see the “orange flags” and “deal breakers” and have them actually limit my perception like they are supposed to do instead of being ignored in pursuit of quicker reward and gratification. 🤣

It’s so nice to be like “omg he’s so cute and amazing” and “if he stops talking to me I will be sad but not crushed”

In 2020 I was OBSESSED with this Punk Pisces. The most simp. Unmedicated obsession. He was my roommates friend, tall , skinny, covered in tattoos, drank maybe too much but he had a blue collar job and his own place. He was younger than me by like 2 years. He gave me suuuuuch butterflies btch like I CANNOT explain my obsession. He knew I liked him and he would cuddle me sometimes, and we would makeout, and he would be rough with me even though he was outwardly so nice and gentle with others, we only fcked once and it slipped out and I tried to make a “know your stroke” joke and it caused him to stop fcking me and leave 🙃😔. He didn’t like me. I wasn’t his type. I wasn’t his “dream girl” . It crushed me bro. I think when I stopped being friends with that group of people because I went back to my ♐️, I think the Punk Pisces blocked me on everything. I can’t even see him on social media anymore, which is fine. I don’t want to be obsessed with someone like that again.

I don’t want to feel like I would DO ANYTHING for someone again, that’s so gross and unhealthy. I still have to stop myself from being over-giving and overly nice to ♑️ and I can’t 🤣 it’s so hard not want to pamper someone who is making you feel good 🤣.

♑️ being younger and being in such a different place in his life, but being very pretty and smart and funny and nice, is so refreshing to my brain to enjoy a man and think about him a lot but not cross the line into obsession. Do you know how I know I’m not obsessed? He showed me his Snapchat stuff and I asked why a females name had specific emojis by it, along with why a different male had a specific emoji by it, he only answered the question about the male and completely skipped over the female. My brain went “oop touchy subject maybe? It’s fine I won’t pry. I don’t care that much”

😩 bro I love that for me. It could just be that I’ve run my course with monogamy and don’t really care enough to have low self esteem about adults needing more than one adult to be satisfied sometimes anymore. Old me would be like “come over every night” “can I come over to your place and just watch you play video games?” “Can I hang out with you and your friends?” “Who is that 👀, do you like her?” “Is she pretty? Is she more your type than me? Am I doing something wrong” “omg I must be annoying him” “don’t say that Rhaz it might hurt his feelings” “don’t say that Rhaz it makes you look weird”

I finally got to read the second part of protection bc ya girl is FINALLY done with summer courses! Anyways I love their dynamic I kinda love how she fights back and is witty! I love how we got to see a bit of vulnerability from her and the store moment with the child broke my heart bc the MC didn’t didn’t deserve that as a child as a fellow girly girl it’s daddy issues this speaks to me lol and honestly I wouldn’t mind those issues being looked further into within the story if you’re comfortable with that!

Now I loved how we got to see a bit of jealousyrry! I am a sucker for jealousyrry, within reason and not toxic of course! And I found it kinda adorable that he’s suppose portray this “big bad” bodyguard in when he was suppose to pull off that drunk guy off her and he sort of got shy and flustered when she like pretended to be dating him! I thought it was absolutely adorable and I was giggling like an idiot! Also I found it kinda hot when he told her off lol but because he does seem super chill and him kinda breaking with a very good reason was definitely a marker in their relationship! I loved it and I can’t wait for more!!

As for your posting schedule, I typically think the summer more ppl are active in terms of reading. At least for me rn I’m catching up on stories or starting on some that I’ve had my eye on for awhile! Even though I still have to do adult things 😔 I definitely have more time. But I can understand your perspective as a write and feeling a bit down but just know that you are absolutely amazing and adored and those who truly appreciate you will always be here💜

Congratulations on your courses! That's gotta be a huge relief; I def had a love/hate relationship with my courses back in the day and found that summer was so much more enjoyable when I wasn't trapped behind my computer trying to find the third derivative of an equation (even though I am a sl*t for calculus) <3

Thank you thank you thank you for all your kind words and all your thoughtful comments. I def love a witty banter. Def a sl*t for jealousrry too! so I'm glad it came off as such because I am actually not a jealous person irl, so it's hard sometimes to write it.

All the therapy in the world couldn't get rid of the daddy-issues (RIP) so no worries there. They'll be back. I'm also definitely exploring this whole Harry's hot af kinda vibe with her. We'll see :) :) :)

See, I ALSO thought people might have more time to read as well since it's summer--I know I have way more time to write. But...part of that made me sad that people didn't want to read my stuff then, if they did have more time. Ya know? There are so many good stories out there and there are only so many hours you can devote to reading. Also, I don't know if you saw my last ask, I did JUST post it, but I'm def thinking about a Protection update day in addition to other stuff I got going on. Idk. We'll see.

Regardless, you are very lovely and I'm very glad you're enjoying <3 Thank you for the message and the lovely comments, you are wonderful!

xoxo

Tom needs you

Tom Grant x Plus size reader

If you want to read my other work you can find it HERE

I need a distraction. So I shall write. 

Warning: 18+ angst, fluff, death, and mentions of sex.

Summary: Tom handles loss with you. However things would change.

Part 5

💔😔

As Tom expected the summer was grueling. He was so exhausted from all the maintenance he has to do. Replacing old fixtures and the old bones of the lodge. To make matters worse he only saw you during meal times. This summer was especially busy. The whole lodge was booked which kept you away. There were days when you slept there instead of with him. Just so you could be closer to kitchen. It would only be a few days but God he missed you.

He was coming back to the camper one night and saw the light on. He thought you had to work late tonight. He tried to get out of the cart but he was stuck. He had forgotten to take off his seat belt. Frustrated at the second it took to take it off. He ran inside.

You were there bobbing your head to some music in your earphones washing dishes. You didn't hear him come in. He watched you sway your hips back and forth. He leaned against the door frame grinning from ear to ear. You were so beautiful. He could watch you all day.

As you finished you turned and jumped when you saw him.

" Jesus Thomas! How long have you been standing there."

"Not long."

You held out your arms and gestured for him to come. And he did. He held on to you so tight.

" Missed me huh?" You asked after giving him a smooch.

" mmm" he groaned while kissing your neck.

"Thomas. uhh I made fried fish and french fries."

He pulled back and raised an eyebrow. You stared at him for a second. Then rolled your eyes.

" Fine. I made fish and chips."

"That's it love." He smirked

"Come on you dweeb."

You pulled him to the small table to eat.

" So how was your day?"

" Better now that you're here. What about you?" He asked shoveling big bites of fish into his mouth.

" Good. Left early to come be with you."

Tom grinned. He was happy that you were here. He loved you so much that he could barely stand it. He wanted you and he planned on it. But he saw how tired you were. He was tired too. So he decided to wait. Normally in the beginning of relationships they would have this honey moon faze but for some reason that wasn't like it with you two. It's like you've been together for years. But at the same time it was like you just met. Everyday he found out something new about you. Falling madly in love. You were so comfortable to be around. You took care of each other. There was no need to fill the silence with nonsense. There wasn't a time that he could remember being so content in his life. Wherever you went he wanted to be with you. You were his home.

After dinner you both washed up. He was laying down scrolling through TikTok randomly sending you those 'did you know?' part whatever, when you came out with your tooth brush. A bit of toothpaste escape from your mouth reaching the corners.

" Did you know that 25% of adults don't brush their teeth twice a day?"

" Now I do." He chuckled. It was always something. Your head is filled with all these facts. He didn't understand what your fascination with them but he loved it.

"You gonna surf tomorrow?" You asked continuing to brush.

" Yeah. It's supposed to be nice tomorrow."

You gave him a thumbs up and went to spit.

"when will ya join me out there?"

You laughed sarcastically. "Never. That is so scary. And I'm not a strong swimmer. Besides I don't want anything to swim up my... You know."

" What? That's won't happen."

" What if a jelly fish stings me? And you have to pee on me?" You said coming into the room and sat at the edge of the bed on your knees facing him.

He put his phone on the charger and sat up. " If it comes to that I will piss all over.

"Eww!"

"Well I have to do something." He grinned.

You shook your head and frowned. After you leaned to kiss him. It deepened when he pulled you to straddle him. His hips disappeared between your warm thick thighs. Your fingers intertwined in his curls. You began moving your hips as he guided them. You wanted each other. But when he went for you waist band of your bottoms you froze. He wanted you to ride him but you slid off. He turned to you with confusion.

"What's going on?" He asked

You hesitated " I uhh I can't do it that way."

" Why not?"

" Because...I'm too big for that. I uhh. I can't spread myself wide enough for that position." Your voice trembled at your confession. " I tried before. But, it never worked."

He didn't realize you were self-conscious about your body. Sure you joked about it before. But he never thought you actually felt that way. Yes you were thicker than you probably should have been. But he never cared. Why would he? You were beautiful. He loved all your curves. Your hips were amazingly wide. You were so soft. Like a teddy. He loved to lay on you. You were comfortable. But it hurt him that you felt that way about yourself.

" y/n I don't know why you see yourself like that. But I love ya body."

" I just feel like the only way we can do it is in missionary. Gravity doesn't put all my weight on you. I mean like I would like to but I just have this block."

He laid down and pulled you into him. No longer in the mood he did his best to reassure you that it would be fine. But his heart broke when he heard your sniffles.

" Love please don't cry. We don't ever have to do anything you're not comfortable with."

" I know. I just don't want you to get bored of doing the same thing over and over again."

" Well first we actually have to have sex enough for me to get bored. But even if we do, I would never get bored. I love you and sex with you is amazing. But I'm not with you for just that. I want you for you. Your presence, our conversations, laughing for no reason what so ever. I like spending time with you. Evening if your random spurts of information are a bit off. I love it. I love you."

"We've been together how long and we had sex once. How do you know you won't get bored with me?"

" yeah you're right it was only once. But that one time was marvelous. I have never been with anyone that was as remarkable as you. You are completely memorizing. I felt like...you were meant for me. And I you." He assured you while place a kiss on your forehead.

" you know flattery will get you very far with me." You giggled.

" Well I plan on showing you how beautiful you really are. And maybe one day you will be able to see yourself the way I see you. A straight goddess."

You kissed his chest and rested your head back against him. " Ok Tom. But not tonight. I'm too tired."

He smiled when you said his nickname name. "A'right love. Tomorrow then?"

You nodded and held him. Before you fell asleep you said "I love you."

He rested his chin on the crown of your head. " I love you too."

...

Under no circumstances was Tom prepared for today. He woke the next morning to a bunch of missed calls. He always put his phone on do not disturb when he was with you. Which was a mistake last night. He noticed you were gone and saw a note on your pillow.

'Morning. I hope you slept well. It's going to be a busy one today. So drink plenty of water and breakfast is in the microwave. See you soon.'

He smiled while reading. You were his. All his. And he was so happy for a moment until he called his mum back.

She was crying. His father was hospitalized for a heart attack and the doctors weren't sure he was gonna make it. Tom immediately started crying. He was so far away that there was a chance he wouldn't be able to say goodbye.

But it was if like you knew something was wrong. Because when he hung up you walked in.

" Thomas? What-"

He just fell into your arms sobbing.

" what is it? What's wrong?"

He looked at you and saw that you were crying too. You cupped his cheek.

" What happened? Please tell me what's wrong."

He shook his head and fell back into your chest.

"My pa had a heartache." He whimpered

You hold on him grew tighter.

" Mum said he might not make it."

You didn't say anything. You didn't have too. You just held him until he was able to calm down.

After, he sat on the bed while you pulled out your laptop.

" Whatcha  doing?" He said through hitched breath.

When you didn't say anything, he looked at you. You were too focused on what you were doing.

"Love?"

You met his gaze. With sorrow in your eyes. You sighed " I'm buying you a ticket....you leave tonight."

"N-" he tried to speak but you held out your hand.

" You're going. "

You got up and pulled out a duffel bag and started packing. He could see tears escape your eyes while you shoved shirts in.

" are you going to come with me?"

You sniffled " I uhh. I can't. I want to Tom. I do. I want to be with you. But they need me here."

He felt his tears coming. He wanted you to come as well. He needed you. But he understood. Once you were finished you sat next to him holding his hand.

"I'm so sorry. I...just go home I'll handle Frank."

While at the airport he stood there wanting to say something to you. But he couldn't find the words.

" It's going to be alright. I'll be here when you get back. If you come back.... please come back."

"Don't worry love I'll will."

He hugged you and he turned to leave. He couldn't turn back to you. He knew if he did he would stay. So he left.

...

He was able to make it. But his father didn't. He ended up staying a while to help with the funeral arrangements. You didn't call him but you texted to ask if he was ok. You were giving him space. He didn't want that. But he didn't tell you. Maybe it was a mistake that he didn't. But he really couldn't speak to anyone.

The day of the funeral he was putting on his suit when he heard a knock at the door.

"Tommy are you almost ready?" His mum asked through the door.

He opened it and nodded. He made his way down the stairs after his mum. You were sitting on the couch but stood up when you saw him. He shook his head and went to you. You hugged him and he held you.

" I just couldn't stay away anymore." You whispered

He held you tighter.

...

The funeral was full of tears and life stories. He was in a state of anguish. But you being there was like the sun finally shining through the storm clouds. He needed you and you came. He knew then and there he wanted to be with you forever.

After a couple of days you guys were about to head back to Alaska. It was hard for him to say goodbye to his mum. You tried to convince him to just stay with her but his life was there at the lodge. With you. Though it was hard for him, he left. But before he got into the taxi his mum stopped him. He looked at you from the front door as you put the luggage in the trunk.

" Tommy. She came for us. For you. She’s a good woman. Don't let her go."

He looked at his mother as she placed a small velvet blue box in his hand. He opened it and saw wedding rings.

" mum?

" Tommy they were your great grandmothers. She would want you to have them."

She looked over to you with Tom following her gaze.

" I don't know if she will say yes. But I hope she will Tommy."

You looked back to them and he put the box in his pocket. You gave them a soft smile. He didn't know if you would say yes either. But he had to try.

The flights seemed longer than before. And all you did was hold his hand. You cared for him and he always knew that. But the week made him see it clearer. He was going to ask you to marry him. But not too soon. There was too much to figure out right now. So he would settle for the time you spent together until it was the perfect moment. But the perfect time would be put off for much longer than he intended.

...

Finally back home he slept. For days. You would make sure he would eat. Even though he didn't want to. The only time you left him was to work. But you would cut your hours short so you could just be near him. You would either read or watch movies while he slept. Leaving the TV on mute with subtitles so you wouldn't disturb him.

Winter came and he was finally up and around. Filling as much time as he could with work. Not much was needed to be fixed, but he would always find something. You guys got a room together in the lodge for the winter.

One night he came to see you working on something on the laptop. You were looking for houses near his mum.

" Whatcha looking at that for?" He asked as he changed out of his work clothes.

You closed the computer and laid in bed. " I uhh was just looking."

He gave you a halfhearted smile. He watched you open up the bedside table and pull out a small blue plastic sleeve. You pulled out the contents and popped out a tiny pill.

" What's that?" He said while climbing in next to you.

" It's uhh birth control." You said taking it with some water.

" When did you start that?"

"umm while we were in Darby."

He hummed and he put his arm under your head. You nestled yourself against him.

" I uh I'm sorry Thomas."

He turned to look at you. " Sorry about what love?"

"I should've left with you."

"That doesn't matter. What matters to me is that you came at all. I love you so much y/n. You're the only reason I was able to get through this. I could never repay you."

" I don't want you to Thomas. That's what we do for each other. We be there."

Tom couldn't help his mouth finding yours. He moved to rest on top of you. Only stopping to breath. Relieving yourselves of clothing. He looked deeply into your eyes before aligning himself to your sopping entrance. He was waiting for this moment for so long. Making love to you that night was unparalleled to any other. He took his time with you. Making sure your every need was met. While you did the same. Talking and laughing after until you both fell asleep.

The morning after was no different. Spending most of the morning cuddling. Finally getting a room with a a shower. You guys took one. Washing each other. Both in fits of giggles. Once all cleaned you and Tom got ready for your day off. Planning to spend the day with the others in the game room.

You went to the bathroom to brush your hair when there was a knock on the door. Tom was just about to put on his shirt when he went to answer it. Looking at you before he opened it. You blew a kiss at him before turning back to the mirror. He couldn't help beaming. He pulled the door and saw her. His face fell and pinched his brow. Anger started to boil in the pit of his stomach and his bottom lip quivered.

" Ruth"

[theteasetwrites]

Well I just watched episode 23. Here are my thoughts. 🥲

Spoilers for TWD season 11 episode 23. Don’t read if you haven’t watched it because some shit goes down.

Love that they’re all heading for commonwealth to fuck shit up

Ok I am actually pissed tf off about Daryl letting Judith come with them. Daryl she’s like 11 years old. Idc how “tough” she is, she should not be allowed to fight in a literal warzone where there are automatic rifles being shot at your people. I absolutely HATE how they’ve written Daryl to allow that. They’re making him make such a stupid ass decision that I feel like he would never make (another OOC moment because the writers don’t know Daryl as a character anymore). Daryl makes stupid decisions sometimes, but this is beyond stupid. Daryl, I know you would be a better parent than that and yet they’ve written you like you have the common sense of a potato

Also Judith begging to go with them all the time is so annoying to me like girl you are a literal child know your place read the room and stop trying to be an adult it’s just annoying at this point we get it your parents were Rick and Michonne pls shut up about it🙄

Hi when am I supposed to start caring about Annie or her and Negan’s stupid unborn baby I think I missed the memo

NOT LYDIA. NOT LYDIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. I gasped. When I tell you I sat up in my bed at 3am and GASPED. I love Lydia so much. But at least it was just her arm and Aaron was with her and helped amputate, but still. Also when Aaron said “you are so loved Lydia” 🥹 I love this man so much you don’t understand he is actually the best character right next to Daryl don’t @ me I’m right also I cared more about Lydia than I did Judith in this ep 🫣

I hope Elijah and Jerry make it in the herd, but tbh I am not going to get my hopes up because they are both fair game at this point unfortunately 😔 who is going to take care of Jerry’s 20 kids

I love that Mercer is helping them out now! He really is a great character I think. It’s just so frustrating that he got snitched on but you know what they say about snitches

Ezekiel pls you don’t have to be nice to Negan it’s ok (I love him for that tho, we stan a bigger person) also if they kill Ezekiel I will stab someone anyway

I really really hope Rosita finds her baby. I wonder why Coco wasn’t at Alexandria like the other kids??

Connie is so sweet to that guy idk his name but you know. That guy. Too bad he DIES

Oh yeah and Judith gets shot. Um so I am not a big Judith fan at all so like obviously I am slightly sad but also… I mostly just care about how Daryl is going to deal with it because he is totally going to blame himself (as he should bc WHAT DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN BESTIE 😭). Daryl has lost so many people and he always blames himself for it and idk it just really bothers me that they’re doing this to him AGAIN like let my man have ONE DAY where someone’s death isn’t indirectly his fault and/or affects him greatly. We don’t even know if Judith is gonna die but yeah it’s not looking good. I mean they’re not going to get great medical care in the middle of a full-blown war AND a walker attack (with the advanced updated DLC version of walkers thrown in too)

I honestly don’t care that much if Judith dies but I also don’t want Daryl to have to deal with that because DAMN he is going to be devastated he has lost so much man it’s really not fair. I think he has suffered more than any character on this show and I don’t think it is controversial to say that because just considering the sheer amount of shit he has dealt with and seen is insane. I would say he is going to need therapy after this but apocalypse 😔

But also Daryl you dumb bitch lol ofc this was going to happen you should have never let a CHILD into a WARZONE you big himbo

I’d still give him a blowjob tho he’s gonna need one after this

Anyway

Also Pamela suck the fattest cock you are such an asshole I hate you and I can’t wait to watch you die I hope Daryl kills you too 😘

Ok that’s all I think?? Idk this episode was a whirlwind. I am scared for the next one (esp since Daryl is laying on the ground?!?! HELP)
