so much respect for the adhd people who don't take medication because they feel like it makes them not feel like them or dulls their sparkle or w/e but i can't relate at AAAALLLL. i can't do anything without my meds, i struggle so much with motivation and for me the best thing the meds do is just getting me started doing what i need to do. they streamline my thoughts it's like my brain is the ocean in finding nemo and there's clownfish and jellyfish and dory and schools of salmon and sharks and boats and they're all talking over each other all at the same time and not getting anywhere and then the meds are the east australian current that puts them on a simple path to where they need to go. it's so good.

Tumblr media
kenny mccormick
you and kenny were inseparable even though you were a year older than him you would still talk to him during recess, even sometimes dropping by his class to annoy mr garrison. when things got tough at home esp when mom and dad is fighting you and kenny would always protect kevin and karen, you two are the most sane people in that house fr.
you were always protective of kenny and would travel to the world and back for him, when he introduced his friend group to you, you were..... shock to be honest. esp the one whos a disrespectful racist sexist person who mocks the jew friend. the others was decent, the most normal friend out of the three of them is definitely kyle, you'd trust your little brother anywhere with kyle. but with cartman? you might have to spy a little.
you sometimes hang out with them! just to protect kenny of course, they dont mind tbh. but you were worried on how stan thinks of you because whenever he sees you he pukes, you tell your little brother but he says to not worry and laughs abt it, you wonder whats so funny about it??
sometimes kenny also follows you around with your friend group, they dont mind, they think hes the most cutest thing ever. they would surround him and compliment him, he definitely likes it.he was protective of karen and you were protective with kevin, you two always try your best to support your other siblings. doing extra shifts just to buy them toys they never got as a kid.
whenever kenny wants to do something you were always there to support it, it doesnt matter how stupid and dangerous it was, you were there to help him no matter what.
you dont remember when kenny dies so whenever he does you'd go livid, you'd cry all day and mom wasn't helping either. who was going to help you support the other two now? who's gonna accompany you when you feel like getting food? you were crying 10 buckets but then just like that you were okay, you didnt even know what you were bitching about.
in conclusion he's definitely your bestest friend. even if he kills someone you'd defend him with your life, you'd do anything for your little bro.
Tumblr media
tweek tweak
ever since tweek was born you'd swore with your life to protect him, he was the cutest thing ever, everyone calls you the perfect older sibling. you were two years older than him, 6th grade.
you were really famous amongst the school, everyone liked and respected you. anyone knows that if they mess with tweek, they mess with you. you'd act all tough infront of your friends but then your lil bro came along and you were all soft petting his head comforting him, giving him coffee candy to calm his nerves. almost every 6th grader loved tweek bc of his older sibling.
at home if he had a panic attack or would get really anxious you'd calm him down with coffee (that you bought yourself so no weird shit in it) you knew what your parents put in his drinks thats why you always tell him to only drink your coffee and not to drink them, he doesn't get it and would still drink it but only if he is realllllyyyy stressed out, he trusts your opinions
he trusts you alot, if he gets worried about north korea attacking again you would def help him.
every morning when he buttons his buttoned up wrong you wanted to help but he'd freak out, boy hasn't had his morning coffee of course he's freaked out. you'd forget to fix it by then so you just let it be.
you love him so much and wouldn't ask for any different younger brother, and he is very grateful to have a older sibling as nice as you.
Tumblr media
leopold "butters" stotch
butters was the sweetest angel and the best younger sibling you could ask for, although you hated your parents you cared for him so much.
whenever your troubling with something he'd always try to help out anyway he can even though he cant help but he'd try anyways. you hated how unfair your parents was towards butters, he'd get grounded for the stupidest shit and you always argue to your dad about how unfair he's being but instead you'd get grounded too.
you always took the blame for him because he's still a kid and needs to enjoy the outside world, not be cooped up in his room. everytime that eric cartman tricks your sweet angel brother to do something stupid, you hold in the urge to murder some 4th grader, you try talking him out of it but he insisted saying cartman was a good person and hes a good friend, oh how naive butters was
he was very grateful to you and whenever he had doubts about something you are the first person he'd go to, it didnt matter how stupid the doubt was you are always trying to help your sweet younger brother <333

Tumblr media
         It’s no secret that you like working the office.      Even as a child you enjoyed the formal atmosphere when you walked into your parent’s workplace, and even better, you enjoyed organizing stuff. Growing up, your favorite pass time was cleaning and organizing which caused you to excel in school, coupled with your natural smarts. Your peers would constantly tease you, telling you that you were a boring kid- but hey, you’d be making lots of money, and what better job would there be for you, aside from being someone’s secretary?      Those were the first words that came across your mind as soon as you stepped into the prestigious building, heels rhythmically hitting the stainless floor, suitcase in hand. It was also the first lie that you’d tell yourself in there.      You had known about this company even as a child. One that sold just about everything, the most notable being luxurious clothing, but something the company was also well known for? How attractive the family was.      Sure it was a bit weird, but in defense of the general public their appearances were rare, only once in a while you’d see the family on TV. Waving in their limousine, blowing kisses and doing things rich people do, or maybe ignoring the cheering crowd of journalists and news reporters, hell like you knew.     Catching glimpses of the wildly white haired family was something every paparazzi threw themselves at, and picking up a magazine or going to search something on the internet would be sure to be chock full of pictures of the esteemed family. The highlight of the family being the son, just because of how handsome he was, and also happened to be the most publicly known and fawned over family member-     Gojo fucking Satoru.      Luckily for you, he was your boss, so you could probably reveal the tiniest of secrets and make major bank. Unluckily for you, he was childish as all hell, not to mention you found childish people incredibly annoying. The worst thing? You were his secretary.      That could only spell out doom for a man like him, and a woman like you, who only wanted to get business done and nothing else. You two truly did not mix.     Two months prior, you had gotten the job and was finally excited to have stable income after graduating. Your hirers didn’t tell you anything about having to babysit a manchild though.     And so, that’s how you found yourself sitting in the comfortable plush leather office chair, fumbling under the piles of paperwork and fan letters, cursing your boss’s name under your breath for being so unconcerned with work. Scheduling appointments, interviews, sending e-mails of unacceptance to eager authors asking to write an auto-biography, that was your life.      You’d be content with it if your boss was normal.      As soon as the thought crosses your mind, it’s like he heard you think.     “(Y/N)-chan~!” you hear a familiar sing-songy voice down the rather short hallway. Your office resided right next to his, and it would only take him 30 seconds or so to walk down to your door, presumably to annoy the hell out of you. You grunt, blowing a stray hair out of your face.     This also meant that you could hear him sing from his office, even through the thick walls.      Choosing to ignore it, you instead furiously typed to another business executive’s secretary who had just emailed you about a meeting between Gojo and- well you weren’t quite sure who.      “(Y/N)-chan~ I know you hear me, don’t you know it’s disrespectful to not listen to your seniors?” his playful, deep voice was growing closer, and you straighten your back, sighing. You didn’t sign up to be a daycare worker, yet this was what you found yourself doing most of the time.      “I’m sorry, Satoru-sama, please instill me with your great knowledge, oh wise one.” rolling your eyes and rubbing your temples, you glance up from your laptop, bracing yourself for whatever would happen next. Gojo leaned on the frame of your door, head ducking slightly. He was way too tall to walk under it without any issue.      He was unnecessarily calm though, normally he’d be jumping around your office, making a mess of things, but his body language told otherwise. He was slacking off from his duties, obviously, so you weren’t too sure why he’d be acting so... Chill.     With his arms crossed, he gave you a mischievous side eye.     Growing impatient, you stand up, your knuckles grinding against the tabletop. Your brow knitted together as he peered down on you, almost tauntingly, and you hated it.  “Listen, boss. I have a lot to do today, for you, might I add as I am your secretary- and if you’re going to sit around I don’t think I’ll get to these emails and phone calls and everything fast enough. May I kindly assist you with anything? If not I’ll have to ask you to go back to... Whatever you were doing.”      Gojo looked at you, wide-eyed and unblinking, like he didn’t expect such a sassy remark. “Oh my, sweetie. Someone has a naughty mouth... To your boss of all people? How mean! I don’t think I remember putting, ‘allowed to be rude to the Satoru clan’ down on the job benefits.. What’s with the formal tone as well? So unnecessary, just be yourself when you’re talking to me.”     He sauntered closer to your desk, and your breath hitched, this was one of the first times you’d seen him up close like this, and you swore that you could hear your heart beating rapidly inside of your chest. You don’t know what that could mean; but what you did know was that you wanted to slap him or punch a hole into the glass window right behind you and throw him off the 15 floor building. Leaning in close to your ear, he whispered:      “Or, if you wanna stick with the business voice- call me sir. Got that?”     You nod before looking down at your desk, feeling your body heat up for seemingly no particular reason. Did this guy have any knowledge of a private bubble? Whatever, this was your superior. If it was any boss you’d probably be fired by now. You were lucky to be forgiven.     “Yes, sir. May I comment on something... Er, sir?”     “I’m all ears.” standing back up from leaning over your incredibly messy desk, you looked up at him, he looked down at you in response, with beady little “innocent” eyes through his circular shades.      “I didn’t mean to be sassy, I only wish for this relationship to be professional and nothing else.... I, um, truly do apologize and I ask for your forgiveness.” you studied the wall as you say this, fidgeting with your hands and the hem of your pencil skirt. It was a bit awkward to talk to him as if he wasn’t a kid, but it did feel certainly refreshing.      “Is that so?” you turn your head to look back at him as a sign of respect, an eyebrow of his is raised, and a smug smirk is playing at his lips. He talked with such an aura of arrogance around him, you instantly regret being respectful. Yet, you restrain yourself from slapping that stupid smirk off his stupidly handsome face.      Why did all the handsome ones have to be so annoying?      Fuck, no, that wasn’t meant to be a compliment. Even though it was only in your mind, you felt so embarrassed, and had no idea why. It wasn’t like he could read your thoughts, and it was just a mindless compliment, nothing flirtatious about it.       Finally, he spoke. “Aw. (Y/N), I knew we picked well when we hired you. So respectful and professional! What more can I ask for out of a secretary? I humbly accept your apology- but first please do something for me.” he whistled in the other direction as he picked up one of your cute stationary pens, hastily sliding it into his blazer’s pockets.     “Yes, sir?” you brace yourself for impact yet again. Not noticing that he stole one of your favorite pens.     “Slack off a little. None of my secretaries ever worked this hard. I’ll slide in an extra hour for lunch, you can go watch a movie or something-”      “No. Satoru. Contrary to your other secretaries, I actually enjoy work.” standing up now, you stomp over to Gojo, who was now giggling like a 7 year old girl. You hadn’t realized that you had called him by his first name, but honorifics wasn’t on your mind right now.     Your chest stuck out as you shoved him out of your office with your bare hands, maybe as a way of looking more threatening, as if that’d ever work against him.     “Get out of my office!” You hope your eyes are staring daggers, if he ever looked back at you.     Gojo looked at you like he was shocked, tipping his shades down just slightly as you were pushing him out into the hallway. As if he didn’t believe what he was seeing, so he had to see it with his actual eyes- but eventually laughed before accepting his eventual fate.      “On a first name basis now, aren’t we? You’re straightforward! I like straightforward girls though, it works out in your favor.”     “Shut it.”      He made sure to stiffen once in a while just to piss you off so that you couldn’t push him as easily, and before long he was back to his office.       “Cya (Y/N)!” giving you a wave and a wink, he grinned. “I’ll be sure to visit you again, your office is fun!”       That was just one of the unusual interactions that Gojo Satoru had with you, but you knew now that it certainly wouldn’t be the last.  ‧₊˚✩彡.      It didn’t take you long before you realized your favorite pen was gone.       Almost immediately, you figured out who the thief was.       It was evident by now that your relationship between you and your boss wasn’t normal, to say the least. You just couldn’t quite wrap your head around why he stole a cute carrot pen, it certainly wasn’t his style. Well, you weren’t quite sure honestly, but the way the magazine front covers posed him was... Sexual.       Maybe the hot guy liked cute carrot pens and was too scared to buy them by himself, but, it was 2021. Toxic masculinity was basically extinct.      This wasn’t on his mind when he stole your pen, though. Gojo Satoru was smart when he wanted to be. To be quite honest, he just wanted to annoy you more. It made him curious, how could one enjoy work? And be cute at the same time?     The logic made no sense to him. Attending meetings, doing interviews- this was all very boring work to Satoru, and he couldn’t wrap his head around that you enjoyed that. He hadn’t asked to inherit the company, but yet here he was now. Shit, maybe he’d ask you if you wanted the company.      He yawned before drinking his coffee, just how he liked it before taking a sip he straightened his tie, just to make sure he looked extra clean and fresh when you busted down the door, ruffling his fluffy white hair as he did so.     Gojo hated the work environment, just to be straightforward. One thing he did enjoy was the complementary luxury coffee machine, alongside several sugar packets. Placing his impossibly long stick-like legs onto the table, he sighed happily.      Cute girl being his secretary, drinking yummy coffee, the sun rays warming up the back of his head, he was truly living the life.     And then he heard it.      Loud steps against the tile floor.      And then, his door flung open.

okay west side story complaints will follow if u love me you should red and agree and kiss me abt it if u dont then scroll past i guess 🙄
okay this will prob be a little disjointed but whatever. first point: the direction style…… aka kill yourself spielberg. if you hate musicals its the easiest thing in the world to not direct one but here he is. officer krupke is one of my favorite parts and they were doing so well moving between verses using the set for each character but he just HAD to cut to the woman looking at all of them like they were acting weird like UGHHHHH. the whole point of a musical is that the audience suspends their disbelief that people dont just randomly sing and dance for a few hours so they can see a story told dynamically in that way. but people are so fucking embarrassed by musicals that he put in a character to YANK us out of that suspension and be like hey!!! isnt this dumb!!! musicals are sooo silly and dumb and so are the people who like them, im making sure you guys know that even though im directing one im still one of you normal people who thinks this is all weird. the absolute fucking disrespect towards your whole audience for that…. this is extended to the one hand one heart scene as well. the original in the dress shop captures their youth and excitement so well, dancing around with the wedding dress and tux and imagining the window of the shop as stained glass. but again its just taking any of the interesting things you can do with the musical format and not giving your audience enough credit to have any whimsy or suspension of disbelief in a set that isnt the LITERAL location
next largest complaint: ANSEL ELGORT??!!??!3??3!2&@1!;?; AGAIN this feels like the producers not having enough faith that musicals can bring in an audience (despite adapting one of the most beloved musicals of all time, even nearly 60 years later) and trying to expand their audience with a face everyone knows. at least this wasnt another beauty and the beast and he could actually sing reasonably well, but his acting and dancing were HORRIBLE. the fact that he was the only mainstream famous person combined with some weird costuming choices made him feel out of place and even anachronistic at times. maria looked young (and her actress was abt the age she is meant to be) while hes pushing 30 and he really looks it. and his energy doesnt help either. instead of tony being a naively optimistic man in giddy love, he just seems like he decided to be like okay whatever i like this girl i guess. definitely not that he would DIE FOR HER. also combined with bad direction the original has them being pulled together across the dance floor almost magically, and everyone around them falls away, and it makes their romance instantly powerful and believable. in this why did they just go behind some bleachers it was SUCH a weird choice and it just never felt like they had any real chemistry with this styrofoam block of a man
okay and now for the story itself…. WHY did they feel the need to shift SO MANY THINGS AROUND. i liked the change of doc to valentina i thought that gave a good new element to the story, but they shifted all the songs in the middle around and changed the whole meaning of some of them. im on the fence over cool being changed to the fight over the gun i think its kind of interesting and i probably would have had an overall positive opinion if it werent for elgorts stiff ass dancing, but for now i think it offset the pacing with the rumble in the rest of the story. what was most offputting was removing the dress store entirely. now anita and maria only interacted at home, and there was no buildup of conflict between them with tony meeting maria there, and i feel pretty was performed without a dress of her own and to a bunch of characters we hadnt seen before and never saw again. why did they do that???? they sectioned off all the characters in scenes so oddly to the point where important people were missing from half the scenes and nobody should have known what was going on ever. tony was literally so disconnected from everyone else and in conjunction with elgort being literally the ONLY non-theatre person there it felt like tony wasnt even a main character
the police were also weird as fuck. like theyre gang members. they hate the cops. and in this one the added element if gentrification makes the cops worse. but THEN they tried to make krupke like… super well-meaning? like hes talking to the boys in a semi-supportive way and not threatening any violence and even COMFORTING ANITA AFTER BERNARDO DIES??? (also the morgue scene. why. that was stupid) like sorry disney u literally cant be like omggggg cops bad we get it guys 🥰 while STILL being like but also….. cops good 🙈
okay finally the ending. what the fuck. circling back to weird ass directorial decisions. tony dies, maria is crying and waving the gun then back to crying holding him and they could have ended there but they added them carrying his body away but there were too many fucking people so anybodys is just wandering ahead of them and maria walking behind them like 😐. THEN THEY DONT EVEN CUT THERE….. they have chino and valentina walking together THEN picking up the gun slow as hell THEN walking some more THEN the cops show up THEN they start to hand the gun over and FINALLY a fade to black with them obscured in the distance with the fire escape in close focus like WHY. in the WORLD. is that your powerful final shot. the whole thing just felt so rushed in the first place, and then being jumbled up and elgort just not even making me care a little about the romance, and then the ending being just awkward altogether what a fucking weird ass production from all angles
okay but the actors themselves other than ansel elgort all did amazing i wish i just could have directed them i literally could have done a better job. xoxo gossip girl if u read this all youve earned a sloppy makeout session with me 😘

hey my loves   !   i’m mia  ,  21 from the east coast   !   i have not roleplayed in sheeeesh   ...   like five or six months   ?   but i am so excited to be here for opening with all of y’all   .   i spent like all morning trying to weed out this gal logan right here   ...   she’s a trip   ,   that’s the best overall description i have for ya   .   anywho   ,  lets get to the actual thing you’re here for her lil intro   .   also if you wanna mssg on discord here ya go   𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐬 𝖜𝖍𝖔𝖗𝖊#7040   .
Tumblr media
logan samara-de jaager was spotted in the fashion district adorning  air force 1’s university blue  , with some airpod pros on . they’re most likely listening to  benz i know by kelvyn colt  . you may know them as  @delogan  or as that  bella hadid  lookalike . their  twenty fourth  birthday just passed . while living in  the upper east side  , they’ve gained a bit of a reputation . they’re known to be  querulous  but on the other hand  passionate  . wonder if they’ll be the next person to hit the headlines . ( cisfemale / she/her +  mia / twenty one / she/her ) + ( “ logan de jaager seen shoving ex in hotel footage during heated argument , not so sweet huh? ” / “ miss de jaager was spotted sneaking into ex beau’s apartment , what could she be up to? ” / “ sweet socialite or greedy trust fund baby ? milan de jaager publicly accuses daughter logan of stealing $1M … ” )
born into the true lap of luxury . the daughter of real estate magnate & high - profile attorney milan de jaager and his wife , british born socialite lana samara . the two of them held high favor within the 1% but were also able to find a perfect balance . they did a great job of separating personal life from the tabloids . it was rare to really know the happenings of their day to day . they had this particular kind of mystery to them , if you will .
it wasn’t long before lana began to instill the very same rhetoric she received as a child into her own   .   quality over quantity   ,   was the motto   .   just not in the way you’d assume   .   the quality at which a de jaager presented themselves to you was much more important than than quantity of time you spent with them   .   looks   ?   they’re everything   ,   in the de jaager household   .   time was simply a societal construct implemented to catch you on a bad day   ,   for that very line of thinking they embodied being late   .   rushing out of the house to finish your make up in the car   ?   a literal sin in the eyes of her mother   .
she was encouraged to take part in ballet and beauty pageants growing up   .   anything that could showcase how beautiful their daughter was lana and milan were on board for   .   personally logan hated ballet but she couldn’t deny she loved the applause the night of a showcase   .   she also couldn’t stand pageants but loved having all eyes on her as she went on stage   .
it became quite clear as the years went on that her parents were much more like close friends to their daughter than like rule - instilling guardians   .   she would text them to dismiss her from school   ,   get them to buy her   &   her friends alcohol for sleepovers  /  parties   ,   was very much so that kid who got high with her parents   .   really anything you could do with your friends   ?   was fair game with logan   &   her folks   .
at sixteen a friend of her moms who was going to be a designer for spring fashion week that year asked if logan would want to walk for him   .   she was quick to accept the offer and before she knew it she had multiple offers to walk in that years fall fashion weeks   ,   because of how easy it came to her   -    though   ,    she’s the first to admit she never really took modeling all that seriously   .
it was just a year later that her way of life changed drastically , logan and her twin brother had been caught by paparazzi on a friends boat in the hamptons snorting a white substance , anyone with eyes knew exactly what the group of teenagers were doing . upon returning home the two received the crackdown of the century . their once friendly parents turned to strict jail like guardians . often reminded that they put the families reputation at stake . the pressure to be perfect was something logan had never had to deal with until now & she almost cracked under the pressure at every turn .
it wasn’t until she left for college that she was finally given some room to breathe , attending the university of florida was the best choice for what logan truly wanted to do with her life - become a sports analyst . growing up she was infatuated with sports & and would have been involved in much more than just cheerleading had her mom allowed for her to get so much as a speck of dirt on her . during her time in florida the paparazzi seemed to find her more often than not , something her parents often denounced both over the phone & in public . the longer she spent away from the upper east side the more she became america’s sweetheart & simultaneously a thorn in her parents side . she graduated from university in 2018 , only returning back to new york for the sake of work . she’d been offered a reporting job with espn , on top of taking up modeling gigs here & there when ever she felt necessary .
personality …
one thing is very true about the de jaager’s & is very much so the same for logan ; she is not to be trusted . she can be extremely charming when she wants to be . she could sell a bag of rocks to a beach & get a princess to sell her sole to sex work . she knows exactly what people want to hear & when they want to hear it and has no qualms about lying straight to someone’s face if it means she gets something out of it . in fact sometimes , she might lie to your face just for the sheer fun of being able to call you gullible .
she’s very much so a spoiled brat although she hates when anyone call her one , she feels like she has more layers to her than that broad term . hand in hand with that is her drama queen like tendencies , any situation were there is a simple solution she will find a way to blow vastly out of portion .
due to her mother’s heavy influence growing up , she can be rather vein & materialistic . catch her like “ i can’t date a garbage person ” to someone simply because they’re not as rich or known enough for her liking .
it’s rare that you’ll ever see her jump out of character . she’s very calculated & aware of who she is ( or who she needs to seem like ) so if you ever see her emotions getting the better of her , you’ve really broken her .
she’s the type to dabble in a little bit of anything   ?   she’s a rich nyc party girl who’s been partying well before anyone should have allowed her to so she’s done it all   .    you’d be kidding yourself to think you could surprise  /  scare logan on a wild night out   .
she’s quick   &   creative with her sense of humor   .   she has both a crude / dry sense of humor   ,   as well   ,   and really just doesn’t find goofy things to be funny but more or less embarrassing   ( so if she ever tells you you’re goofy , remember it’s not a compliment ) .
her upbringing   &   parents sentiment on tabloids once reflected massively on logan   ,   but now she couldn’t quite care less about it all . after all she spends hours in front of cameras on a regular basis for work . although she does tend to shy away from people who she deems are hungry for fame or attention   .   she’s been used in the past for fame   &   will never let it happen again   , plus she’s the type to lap up attention so she likes to have as little fame whores around her as possible , more shine for her .
when she isn’t being a total nightmare though she’s actually really fun to be around ? she’s playful & loves to keep the party alive . often can be found claiming “ i’m high on life ” although everyone saw the pictures , logan , we know what you’re really high on , girl .
very chatty girl , too . victim of foot - in - mouth syndrome , big time . she doesn’t try to be disloyal & spill people’s secrets ( or does she ? ) but she can’t help herself . if she has piping hot tea she’s gonna spill it because she doesn’t wanna burn herself .
very observant girl , who loves to people watch but her observations can sometimes get muddled when she starts judging people a little too hardcore .
she’s also a undercover couch potato    &    by that i mean if you give her an option to go out   &   do something she’ll never outwardly choose to stay home to watch netflix and snuggle up under the blankets but secretly she’s hoping   &   praying she gets a chance to do so   .
plots   ...
END THIS ( L.O.V.E ) / her first love   .   these two brought the absolute worst out of one another   .    they messed her up so much that she has a weird perspective on what love between two s/o’s should even feel like now   .   maybe they had another s/o at the same time as her   &   kinda just strung her on   &   when it came out were able to lie so much to her that she believed them   .   idk   ,   in truth we could really plot something completely different as to what they did   &   inevitably what the breaking point was   .   maybe they broke up with her   &   had they not ended it maybe she would’ve still been okay with being in the relationship   .   idk i just feel like this one could be fun as hell   .     also they’d be the one whom she was caught arguing with in one of her headlines   .   ( 0 / 1 )
AFTER PARTY / this is a more reckless take of party buddies   .   im envisioning a group of people who when the parties over they all pull up to close by gulf course   ,   indulge even more in their choices of substance   ,   there is a naked gulf tournament going on   ,   there are drunks driving golf carts   ,   swerving and pouring bacardi all over the course   .   running from security when they pop up   .   it’s tradition at this point   &   if someone doesn’t come it’s almost disrespectful at this point   .   idk i just love the thought of this kinda vibe   .   ( 2 / ? )
SECRETS / okay so this one is messy   .   basically logan was very private for most of her life   (   thanks mom   &   dad   )   and during the early stages of highschool she lied to everyone saying she was a virgin   .   she told each one of these individuals that they were her first whether it be to make them fall for her   “   innocence   ”   ,   want to chase after her   ,   or whatever else we might be able to plot out   .   inevitably they compare notes at some point and find out that she’d been lying to them all   .   we can plot out how they confronted her i feel like we could make this real dramatic though   .   this would also be a backstory plot so   ,   we  can also plot out how things have transpired since for them   .   ( 0 / 3 or 4 )
BEST FRIEND / these two girls take best friends to the next level   .   they relate to one another on every level and are there for one another at all times   .   there is never a moment where they are competing with one another because they know that their #1 in there respective category   .   they are one another’s ultimate hype beasts   .   they truly embody chaotic goddess vibes   .   it’s like they were placed on this earth simply to be friends because they compliment one another that well   .   ( 0 / 1 )
LETS FALL IN LOVE FOR THE NIGHT / they are the one that’s there whenever she’s down   .   they have the ability to make her feel like they have some sort of old love whenever she’s around them   .   those feelings only last for the night though   .   they enjoy when she rambles on about sports or the novel she just recently read or really just anything she enjoys can put a smile on their face   .    they know better than to ever confuse what is going on between them though   ,   they know that she’ll never be theirs   .   whether they’re okay with this or not we can definitely plot out   .   ( 0 / 1 )
MOANA / they are not a fan of logan   .   they see her for what she is   :   an attention seeking   ,    spoiled brat and the fact that they don’t want anything to do with her makes her want them all the more   .    when they finally slept with her it was only to prove a point to her s/o at the time   ,   to prove that she’s not the sweet girlfriend she claimed to be   .   basically they’re the person who outed her for being a ho ho ho but despite knowing that they outed her for that she still tries to hook up with them because they were the best she ever had    .   they often turn her down but after a while not even they can deny that they’re attracted to her   .   they still don’t fuck with her though   .   also i think it’d be cool if their were two of them   &   maybe they worked together to out her to her s/o that didn’t believe she was a cheater   ( 0 / 2 )   also bring the s/o that they outed her to   ( 0 / 1 )
ELEVEN / the type of relationship that is stuck in the grey area   .   they’re more than friends but they don’t necessarily admit to having feelings for one another   .   honestly they probably don’t even think they have feelings for one another   .   it’s a weird dynamic   .   they spend the most of their time together late at night   .   there meeting time    ?   11pm   .    they go on wild joy rides to the beach   .   heads out of the sun roof as they let out a loud woo   .    the only thing accompanying them is a big bag of weed   .    sometimes they have deep talks   ,   honestly they probably know more about one another than anyone else   ?   because of these adventurous of theirs   .   when they aren’t having deep talks they’re running across the beach aimlessly   &   rolling around in the sand with one another   .   it’s really just a very pure plot that i need in my life   .  ( 0 / 1 )
TRUST NOBODY / this is someone who used logan for fame / attention   .   they either became close friends or even started dating   &   they used everything they learned about her or what went on between them to relay back to a tabloid / would call paparazzi to come and take pictures of them together whenever they’d go out   .   ( 0 / 1 )
some other plot ideas i’d love to see   :   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   ,   x   .

Hi again, you said I could ask you questions about how to respectfully portray the muslim characters in my comic but my brain is dumb and as soon as I got permission to ask it forgot all my questions. So do you or your followers have any suggestions of things I should and shouldn't do? (Sorry, and thank you for helping)
oh hello again! sure thing, i got some basic pointers. im going to give you pointers for creating a character who is outwardly religious and inwardly religious as well. this is not to say that people who look religious always are, or that everyone who is religious also looks religious, but the fact is that any muslim portrayed as religious is usually oppressed or a terrorist, which is why it’s important to show religious muslims as good character
- don’t have a muslim with a story arc of them rejecting their “religious traditions” and “becoming free” and “walking away from oppression.” it’s an extremely islamophobic trope, and i can’t believe i actually have to say it, but it’s disrespectful to a religion to only portray characters who hate it. i understand that there are people who reject the religious traditions (almost all of which are actually cultural, and the rest of which are generally just taught wrong) and generally do feel as though they need to leave the religion. it happens with every religion. however when those are the only characters ever portrayed in the media, it needs to stop
- the trope of the oppressed hijabi finding love with a white guy and breaking the rules of her religion to date him because it’s ~true love~ needs to die. immediately. generally dating isn’t a thing done in our religion, not just culturally. for the most part, when you want to get married, you meet someone (usually through your friends/family, nowadays online is more popular too), you guys “court” like in a jane austen novel, then get married. it’s not difficult, and for the most part people don’t see it as a big deal
- generally i would stay away from a romance arc at all. dating is generally not done, and while yes people will do it, it’s an iffy topic. generally people try to remedy this by giving the muslim an arranged marriage love interest (see: rick riordan). this is even worse. they don’t need a love interest
- they’re usually not as close with the opposite gender. yes, again, some people are, but for example you have a hijabi character, she’s not going to take her hijab off in front of a guy because she “considers him family” (again, see: rick riordan). also most muslim women (religious ones) won’t touch a male that they aren’t related to (and vice versa, a religious guy won’t touch an unrelated girl) unless in an emergency. this is not a weird thing. i had a friend in my islamic school (he left for high school, havent spoken to him in a while), and in situations where there would normally be physical contact, we just avoided it. i was freaking out before a performance, he gave me a pep talk and we air fived. it’s completely normal and not a big deal
- in cases of a medical emergency: if a hijabi needs immediate medical attention and she doesn’t have a hijab on, the priority is her health and safety. if the doctor is a guy, so be it. nobody is gonna say “oh, 911? we have someone having a heart attack, but make sure your entire staff is female,” you just take whoever is coming. in situations where someone is able to get a hijab on her, they might try to do that, but again, it’s more likely that they’ll bring one to the hospital instead of putting it on her while she’s having a stroke. there is absolutely no sin involved here, so don’t have them freak out like omg im going to hell i dont have a hijab on. maybe they’ll feel exposed or embarrassed, but that would be about it
- if you have a hijabi character living in western society, she will probably complain about the lack of hijab-friendly clothes. she will probably look at any article of clothing that catches her eye and try to “halalify” it (”hmmm i could wear a cardigan with this and then wear that pink hijab” “if i can find sleeves to wear with that dress then i could make it work” “i’d probably need to pin the neck, it’s too wide for my hijab to cover”). she will also probably have her hair showing occasionally when it’s windy or she’s wearing a slippery material. she will also probably curse and try to cover it up when someone mentions it
- we’re normal people. we have the same interest, likes, dislikes as anyone else. just make sure you’re not writing a character who hates their religion, since that’s all too common
if you have any other specific questions, don’t hesitate to ask! im happy to answer :)

Wolf + Yayoi + Akiyama :)
this is seriously ill im sorry
Wolf
First Impression: well he seems neat <3
Impression Now: he's very soft and kind.. <3 and very cool very nice man i love you wolf
Favorite Moment: the whole rice thing b/t the divine child and him and kuro, this isnt a moment but i enjoy how he speaks to people he makes me (: 
Idea for a Story: I'd like to see him first meeting Kuro ^__^ that would be cute.. or how he grew up w Owl bc it seems so … … … well anyway he has a lot of cool background that would be fun to explore 
Unpopular Opinion: i think people draw him smiling too much in some interactions i dont want him to even remotely have a sense of humor or even emote well tbqh, not that i think hes unhappy or anything but like well … + also people are freaks w him but that's another story.. i dont think he would date grandpas
Favorite Relationship: kuro <3 it's cute how he actually engages in conversation w Kuro i like how he talks w him and how Kuro talks w him it's nice.. i think his relationship w Owl is interesting but not . good. Emma + Isshin + Sculptor & every other friend he meets i enjoy esp Kotaro ^^
Headcanon: *gives him transgenderism + autism + homosexuality*, selectively mute (:, he also just has a general issue w socializing & when he doesnt know what to say he defaults to repeating people or just ignoring people, he likes being called Wolf by like Kuro and whoever but Isshin deciding to call him Sekiro makes him feel a little something (:, he can "cook" + knows lots of misc skills like sewing and stuff, doesnt like loud noises, doesn't like being in water -_-, i think he has trouble differentiating b/t what he likes v what he dislikes bc hes used to just putting up w things and never really got to acquire preferences ever hes accustomed solely to survival, he's done kuro's hair for him before <3 but he does it very quick and messy but he tries 
Yayoi
First Impression: ig this is her k1 substory idk i just kind of like . wow this lady seems cool ig goodbye 
Impression Now: … hi <3 she holds a very very special place in my heart now i miss her everyday please babygirl come back to me i need you back ive written out how you can come back please 
Favorite Moment: her k1 substory always makes me sad um.. everything in k2 when shes taking charge.. i love watching her interact w kiryu they have a really interesting relationship.. i like when she got on ryuji for his bullshit and i really really like her introduction in k2 i love watching her handle shitty lieutenants <3 i love you.. oh also whenever she looks sad + worries over daigo thank you for being a mom ma'am <3
Idea for a Story: um i have a lot of stuff already written for her bc im a sicko .. um ig most interesting to me is how her relationship w dojima developed & also what she was up to when dojima died and daigo went to prison right after bc i think about that period (+k1 substory) a lot.. </3 seeing what she was doing in 3 when daigo was shot would be nice iwant her to be homophobic to mine i think <3 ik a rggo event covered it but id like to see more of her when she stepped up to he acting chairman & how that went ig more in depth.. or just her general role w the dojima family back when it was relevant and uh yeah <3 
Unpopular Opinion: um i personally would never call her a milf that feels so :x idek to me gross almost not even bc im a homo or anything i just never would it feels too disrespectful aieeeeeee 🙈 also i wish people didn't care for her just as daigos mom or her being more compotent than daigo or whatever idk people are weird about them in a stupid way and i </3 ik shes just a side character but whatever.. also i hate everyone who writes her like "yes i married dojima for power and i crave violence" fuck you im the only right person ever 
Favorite Relationship: um daigo.. i have lots of thoughts they are so nice together ilove them very much <3 kiryu and kashiwagi are very cute w her too they respect her very much its sweet <3 i think nishiki and kiryu helping out w daigo as dojima members when daigo is little has very sweet potential b/t lady dojima and them not saying they outright would be seeking for a maternal figure but um.. also well kashiwagi uhh well i want her to move past her [k2] baggage and um.. um.. 🙈 boyfriend 
Headcanon: she's so bisexual shes very very bisexual and she knows it and no part of it even concerns her shes just bi + also her first major crush was on a girl that went nowhere and it embarrasses her to death <3, her dad is who introduced her to wielding a sword it was a very unorthodox introduction and came about by kind of bittersweet means but she very much enjoys it (he didnt teach her anything more than the very very shoddy basics he really just helped introduce), she comes from a very non-traditional [japanese] family, really bad vanity issues i wont publicly elaborate on, um something about dealing w loneliness, she was like daigo and was top of her class in school, she comes off as prett7 different outside of professional settings + acts a lot colder and meaner than she actually is around work people bc that's the only way she thinks she'll be taken seriously, she was a very excited first time mommy <3 she still loves daigo more than anything, she used to sporadically grow her hair out and chop it all off and grow her hair out and chop it all off growing up mostly as a teen -_-, she doesnt socialize well but shes good at parroting and imitating proper social etiquette,  she has an "older sister", she loved kiryu and then she hated him more than anything and now she likes him again, perfectionist but a lot of things come naturally to her, not very expressive but her eyes give away a lot, she used to really like kazama very fondly until she didnt, shes not much of a hand-to-hand combat fighter but she can handle self defense, cooking does not come naturally to her ):, shes kept every gift + prize daigo has gotten for her, shes not much for gifts (from people not daigo) but she likes flowers 
Akiyama
First Impression: he's funny (: 
Impression Now: he's still just funny <3 but also bisexual i love him he's very endearing and easy to like 
Favorite Moment: hanging out w haruka in rgg5 or any time he is having fun w hana <3 his one substory in rgg5 where you get more of his background is nice or when he first gets together with shinada + tanimura is funny.. anything that's not rgg6 um
Idea for a Story: i want him to hang out w haruka more <3 or just some of his day to day life.. what he splurges on when he does ummm.. background on when he and hana first met + his ex fiance, hin hanging out w the rest of the group .. anything fun i think ^_^
Unpopular Opinion: he has annoying/questionable moments but so does everyone in the series um.. akiyama/hana is superior when he crushes on her hard vs her to him idk if that's even unpopular ummm idk idek any freak stuff w him nobody talks about akiyama much 
Favorite Relationship: hana (: trans bisexuality <3 him + kiryu & haruka are sweet together, him and tanimura are fun.. i think hes a nice central point for both 4+5 protags i just enjoy him <3 hes good w people 
Headcanon: hes the least athletic i think that's canon though, tried to keep a fish tank in the office but hana ended up taking over + then getting rid of it but by then he wanted an office cat or bird or something "more interesting" so that hed feel like taking care if it but by that point she put her foot down on animals, tries out lots of misc hobbies that he eventually drops (golf, tennis(very embarrassing), gardening, etc (mostly sports bc he feels like a lazy piece of shit sometimes + gets splurges of Yeah Fitness!!!)), all kinds of math teams and etc growing up he actually really likes math, has a lot of gifts he chickened out on giving hana just kind of buried in the office, bad at video games, can't cook, he buys lots of cheap things bc he doesnt really see the point of splurging on fancy unnecessary stuff, magazine hoarder bc he just picks up whatever for a mindless read when at the store and forgets if he's gotten it before

How to stay sane when arguing with Snaters
1. Feel the energy before If the post is too hateful, makes you feel overwhelmed or you just feel a very bad energy coming from it... don’t read the comments. They’re going to be worse. If you really want to write something, come back later once you had time to feel better. It’ll allow you to control your emotions if (and when) a Snater will reply. Choose your battles, kid.
2. Feel the energy during Is the other person insulting/disrespecting you? Are you feeling okay? Is the other person just doesn’t want to understand anything? They’re like a wall? Do the comments have a bad energy (for example, hateful)? Don’t allow the other person to drain your energy. You can leave whenever you want. You say goodbye and that’s it. It’s not about winning the debate.
3. How is the other person? Are they disposed to receive your opinion/argument? Are they open-minded? Do they respect you? Are they willing to understand your point of view? If right from the beginning, they start saying Snape is a racist and incel piece of shit who deserves to die, you might just want to leave it. They’re just irremediable and it will be hopeless to try to have a debate with that kind of person. If they seem to be nice and not too hateful, you can counterargue. You’ll see how it goes. If they just say “I hate Snape.”, that person is not necessarily looking for a debate. No need to argue with them. If you want to know why, just ask them. Depending on the answers, you’ll need to judge if that person is opened to your counter-arguments and if you think you might change their mind on certain points.
4.  You can’t change everyone’s opinions How many debates I’ve had? A lot. How many I’ve “won” (made the other person change their mind on Snape/James)? Too little. That’s why you need to ask yourself if it’s worth the effort.
5. Immature people with no knowledge of psychology That’s what I see the most in Snaters. They are young, have no experience in life and don’t know shit about psychology. Some are just not fully evolved yet to understand your point of view and won’t do anything to hear what you have to say. Psychology is complex and so is Snape. If the other person is too immature to grasp a psychology concept, life values/principles, anything that has to do with “the more experiences you have in life, the more you understand how it works”, don’t expect them to understand what you’re trying to say. How many times have I told Snaters that Snape called Lily a mudblood because he was being humilliated in front of the whole school and lashed out on her because he was losing control and tried to gain it back with the only way he found. That he didn’t mean it, that it’s what abuse does to some people, that he apologized and it was his worst memory ever. How many times have I been told that I was justifying what he told her?
6. Basic arguments He was obsessed with Lily, he was Neville’s worst fear, he insulted Hermione, he bullied kids, he almost killed TREVOR, etc. To be honest, they’re 90% of what a Snape lover has to deal with! They’re easy to answer and you might win some debates by changing their opinions because they’re mostly people who followed the pack and use those arguments without even understanding them. But once again, if they’re not opened to what you have to say... not worth it. Just say ciao.
7. They don’t make sense You say something, they understand something else, and now they distort what you said and created a whole new argument? Yeah, welcome to the club. You say that Snape was abused as a child and now they say you glorify child abuse. See what I mean? Here is an example of what happened to a friend recently:
Her: “Hagrid caused Dudley great trauma, a big fear of wizards and fat-shamed him. No, I don’t dislike Hagrid, but I hope you do, as he did awful things to students too.” Snater: “Sis are you really telling me that Hagrid is worse than Snape, the man who emotionally and physically abuses kids?” Obviously, my friend wanted to show that Hagrid also did bad stuff and the Snater distorts what they said and change her argument into “Hagrid is worse than Snape”. When they start to put words into your mouth, run! It happens frequentely. No fucking idea why they do that. I guess they don’t know how to debate.
Another weird thing they do: they change the subject. You’re talking about Snape’s greasy hair and how it might be caused by his depression, and the next thing you know is that Trevor almost got MURDERED by Snape. You’re like.. “the fuck? I was talking about hair?” They don’t follow the rules of a debate. You open an argument, you end an argument. They’re out there opening parentheses wherever they want and never coming back to what you said. Which means that 1: you never concluded the argument, 2: you already have another argument to answer, and 3: it means they are not paying attention to what you have to say. This often happens with another thing: the word-vomiting arguments. They say every goddamn arguments they can think of and that’s it, that’s the debate. It’s up to you if you want to counterargue or not.
8. Don’t put too much energy in this Not worth it.
9. Verify who posted the post If it’s a Snape hate account or a Marauders fan account... think about it.
10. Disrespectful snaters & bullies Don’t worry, it’s not personal. Something’s wrong in their head and that’s it. They’re hypocrites. Blocking is an option for those cases. Don’t play their game. Sometimes I like to act stupid when I see it’s a dead-end.
11. They want to make you feel bad Here’s a comment from the previous Snaters, talking to my friend after her ending the conversation: Snater: “byee (kisses and heart emojis) at least the convo ended w me knowing im not a toxic person apologist (in love emoji)” So yeah. If you’re called a racist, an abuser, a KKK member, a Nazi, a whatever-you-want apologist (for example, Sn*pe apologist (which is the worst, in my opinion))... Don’t worry. They like to say that to everyone who likes a dickhead like Snape. I doubt they understand the meaning of those words. They’re hating on Snape for saying mudblood but hey ho, it’s okay to bully and insult real people, uh? Just saying that we all know we aren’t bad people for loving Snape.
Last point: No every Snater is like that!  Thanks to them. Don’t assume every Snater you encounter is hateful. But from my own experience... a lot of them are lol! Isn’t it surprising? They hate Snape for being the way he is yet they are very hateful person themselves. Just be respectful yourself and block them if it’s too much for you. Feel your emotions, understand them and control them! ♥ Don’t put too much energy in defending Snape. He’s a fictional character after all and your mental health is way more important.
Also, keep going, Snape lovers! The vast majority of you are open-minded, kind and smart. That’s why you gotta spread kindness. Love you and have a good debate x

Hello, Are You There? || Part 1
Tumblr media
Minako tries the number neighbor thing. Thinking it was an inactive number, she decides to vent and express her frustrations, turning it into a sort of mini diary. What she didn’t expect was somebody was actually on the other line and decided to send a message back.
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
Word Count: 3.4k+
Pairing: Akihiko Sanada x Minako Arisato
Note: alternate universe where there are no demons, no dark hour and therefore no SEES. also, minato and minako are twins :3 this was something i started writing out of nowhere, so please tell me if there are any spelling errors!
Minako was the type to be able to handle herself. She is always there for her friends, giving them support when needed and cheering them on. However, when it came to herself, she didn’t like opening up. It wasn’t because she didn’t trust her friends, or secretly hated them. No, that is not the case. She is simply afraid because she believes that opening up and telling others about her deepest, darkest fears will make her vulnerable and weak. She didn’t like that one bit.
She believes that she always has to be strong.
Being the older sister(by five minutes), and the one in charge of taking care of Minato because her parents are working abroad, she thinks that she always has to be strong.
Of course, sooner or later she will have to realize that she can’t always be strong.
/./
Classes just ended, and Minako decided to have a cup of coffee at Chagall Café along with Yukari and Fuuka for some quality girl time.
“Have you heard of this trend? It’s an old one but I found it interesting.” Yukari asks, shoving her phone at Fuuka and Minako. The latter shakes her head, while Fuuka studies the image on Yukari’s phone.
“What is it about?” Minako inquires, seemingly uninterested. Yukari didn’t notice it though.
“Basically, get your phone number and change the last digit into the neighboring numbers. And then you send a message.” Yukari answered, taking back her phone.
“Oh, what happens next?” Fuuka asks, not quite understanding the purpose.
“Well, they’ll reply. And maybe you’ll get a new friend.” Yukari states, with a big smile on her face.
“Oh… that’s quite... um...” Fuuka trails off, not knowing how to finish her sentence.
“Lame.” Minako interjected.
Yukari laughed. “Of course you would say that! But why not try it? You may get something out of it... like maybe a relationship?”
Minako scrunches her eyebrows, absolutely weirded out by how the thought of that idea did a big jump. “That seems like a reach. But anyways, I don’t need to be in a relationship! I’m already happy I got you guys!”
Yukari snorted, while Fuuka gave a big smile, “I’m happy I have you guys, too.”
“Okay but I want to try it at least once.”
“Then you do it yourself, Yukari.”
“No! I want to do it with you guys! What do you think, Fuuka?”
“It wouldn’t hurt to try…”
“Seriously Fuuka?”
“Fuuka already agreed! Two against one!”
“Fine… But only once, okay? If they don’t reply, then that’s it.”
“Pfft, sure!”
/./
Of course, Minako didn’t really expect a reply. After all, who in their right minds would reply to a random number texting ‘Hey there number neighbor!’. She is sure as hell she wouldn’t. Thinking that her number neighbor might be an inactive number, she decides not to dwell on it anymore as she prepares dinner for her and Minato.
At the sound of the door opening and some keys being carelessly thrown somewhere reaches her ears, Minako smiles at the thought that her younger brother is home. She puts on a big smile to greet her brother, “Minato, welcome home!”
Minato just grunted in reply. She knows this mood of his. He probably had a bad day, and when Minato is having a bad day, he doesn’t have the energy to talk or interact with other people.
“Can you please set the table? I’m almost done with the food.” Minako pleads, hoping that he isn’t too tired. Minato didn’t reply, however he did start on setting the table.
As Minako served the food on the table, Minato decided to go back to his room and change. When he came back down, they started eating.
“Tough day?” Minako tries starting up a conversation with his brother. Minato nodded.
“Do you want to talk about it?” Minako asks again, and Minato shook his head no.
And they ate in silence.
/./
The next day, it didn’t seem like Minato’s mood changed. As they were going to school, Minato was quiet and didn’t seem to acknowledge her presence. Minako knows that even if her brother is acting cold, he still loves her so. But that doesn’t mean it hurts any less. All she could do was sigh and turn her volume on to the highest level, drowning out the rest of the world.
As they were walking through the school gates, some girls blocked the way, not caring if they were causing a big inconvenience to the other students.
Minako, curious with what was happening decided to lower her volume and listen.
“Akihiko-senpai is most likely coming soon! He usually arrives at this time!” One girl said, smiling huge, jumping up and down.
“O-M-G! I hope he looks our way!” Another girl squealed, and Minako swears that her eyes were shaped like a heart.
“I am like, so proud of him for winning that competish! I’m going to ask for an autograph!” A third girl chimed in, flopping her arms around.
Minako rolled her eyes. It wasn’t of any importance. Some girls just bothering a poor, helpless guy. She sighs once again, maxing out her volume and silently walking to class.
/./
This day isn’t being kind to Minako.
And that was sugarcoating it.
The teachers dumping a bunch of work on the students, just a week before the finals. The volleyball club members fighting with the leader. Obnoxious and disrespectful customers at Minako’s part-time job. Minato still not opening up.
This day was absolute shit.
After dinner, Minako decided to head straight to her bed and lock her door. She flopped herself on her bed and released a big sigh. Her chest feels tight and she feels worn out. She’s read somewhere that crying is a good way to let out your feelings, and it might make you feel a whole lot better if you let it out.
However, nothing was coming out.
She blinked a few times. Nothing.
Suddenly, the feeling of anger is overpowering her. The frustration of not being able to cry is getting to her, and she decided that the best way to go about it is to scream in to her pillow.
That still didn’t help.
She decided to grab her phone. Another thing she read is that opening up might help. She didn’t like the thought one bit, but she knows that she can trust her friends. She scrolled through her screen, Yukari? Fuuka? She decides to go through their group chat, and although they are both online, they seem to be talking about something happily and she didn’t want to dampen the mood.
Maybe Rio? But she’s got her own problem with the volleyball team. Probably best not to stress her out anymore.
Minato? She knows damn well that her brother won’t judge her no matter what, but Minato is probably asleep already.
She sighs yet again, until she comes across her number neighbor.
Hey number neighbor!
Still no reply. Maybe it really is an inactive number.
It’s perfect.
I mean, it’s still sort of opening up to somebody, right?
Plus, she won’t be bothering anybody and she’ll be able to express her frustrations.
Win-win.
She decides to start typing.
Minako: hey there number neighbor
Minako: i know this is really fucking stupid but today was really shitty
Minako: and im telling this to you because i know nobodys there
Minako: but basically what happened was the teachers decided to drop every fucking major requirement the week before exams, and then my part-time job is so demanding, both my boss and the customers
Minako: my boss kept dumping work on me and he did say he would pay me extra but it was still pretty fucking tiring
Minako: and then today the leader of my club expressed her frustrations on said club
Minako: and my brother still wont open up…
Minako: and… i don’t know… i guess it just sorta sinked in to me all of a sudden that im tired..
Minako: and sad… and lonely…
Minako: i
Minako: wow
Minako: that got too real too fast
And a tear fell down her cheek. Minako blinked a few times, and more tears came down.
She was crying. And she couldn’t stop, and she decided to let herself feel this.
She fell asleep crying.
/./
“Shit!” Minako hurriedly put her textbooks in her bag, panicking as she realizes she woke up late. She is usually the one who wakes up first, and then she will be the one who will wake up Minato, who is a heavy-sleeper.
Today, Minato was the one to wake her up, but because Minato isn’t a morning person, they are both late.
When Minako finally finished her packing her things, she put her hair in a bun and washed up herself really quickly.
“I’m really sorry, Minato! You can go on without me!” She shouts from her room, suddenly having trouble putting on her uniform.
“No.” Minato answers back simply. Minato was a man of habit and if he got used to something, he’d want to keep it that way. So going to school without Minako is going to feel weird.
“I’m done!” Minako quickly grabbed her phone and her headphones while going down the stairs quickly. “Let’s go!”
/./
They both managed to snag a seat on the train, and Minako decided to check the time on her phone. It wasn’t time yet, but they are most likely be late since the train hasn’t left yet. She notices two notifications on her phone. One from Yukari, containing the words, “wer r u and minato?” and another from an unknown number.
She decides to open it and her blood ran cold.
It was from her number neighbor.
She remembers clearly how she decided to vent to her number neighbor, thinking it was an inactive number.
It was an inactive number, right? Still in denial and thinking it was her phone glitching, she decided to open it anyway.
???: Hey, I am sorry for ignoring your message. I thought you were a prankster, but I can tell that you have been having a hard time. Prankster or not, I want to make sure if you’re okay and not doing anything bad.
???: If it helps you even just a little bit, you can continue venting to me. :) I do not mind at all. I have heard that venting to a complete stranger is much easier than venting to a friend, since there is no judgment. And that’s completely true.
???: I won’t judge you.
Minako was dumbfounded. Is this guy for real? She thought she was going to get told off by the guy, but he seems really nice.
Minako: omg im so sorry my friend told me to do this number neighbor thing
Minako: and when you didn’t reply i thought it was an inactive number
Minako: last night i was really frustrated and nothing was helping
Minako: so i decided to vent to this number because i figured no one was gonna read it anyways
Minako: i am really sorry if i disturbed u
Minako sighed to herself. The train finally started moving and she decided to play music to get her mind off of it. What she didn’t expect was that she was going to get a reply so soon.
???: It is fine.
???: I told you, I do not mind. You can vent to me anytime if it helps you. :)
Minako didn’t know how to react. This guy is too nice.
Minako: um ok
Minako: thanks ig
Minako: u can do the same if u want
Minako: u can vent to me as well
The guy stopped replying. Probably became busy. Minako sighs in relief, she is embarrassed to say the least. She probably won’t talk to the guy for a while. Or you know, ever. That is probably it, she does not need some random stranger knowing about her problems. She decides to spend the rest of the ride listening to music and looking at the passing scenery.
/./
After school, Minako, Yukari and Fuuka decided to go to Chagall Café once again. Yukari suggested a ‘study group’ to help each other understand unclear terms and also a way to finish their projects. Fuuka and Minako agreed that it was beneficial.
After ordering their drinks and desserts, Fuuka started teaching Yukari the recent Math topic. Yukari couldn’t wrap her head around it and no matter how hard she tried to follow the discussion, she still couldn’t understand. Minako understood the lesson very well, so she was finishing one of their other projects instead.
“Okay, so first you have to write the given…” Fuuka started, while Yukari stared at the problem.
Minako was getting her things ready, when her phone vibrated. She opened it to see a message from her number neighbor. He still replied?
???: Hey, sorry for not replying. Today has been hectic.
???: But thank you! I’ll be sure to keep that in mind. :)
???: How are you feeling today, though?
Is this guy… actually concerned? Minako knows that it is rude that she is questioning and may or may not be judging the guy when she absolutely knows nothing about him. But same goes for the other guy, they do not know anything about her and yet they are concerned?
Minako: im okay today
Minako: thanks for asking
Minako: hbu?
As she finished setting up her things, she got a reply. That was quick.
???: That’s great. I am glad you are feeling better. :)
???: I am good, too. Just a little tired. But I can manage.
Minako stares at the message. Is she supposed to reply to that? Nevermind that, she is supposed to be studying right now. She decides to instead text Minato to eat outside already, as she will be home late. And then she put her phone in her bag and concentrate on her project.
/./
When Minako finally got home, the house was eerily quiet. There were no lights on either. “Minato?” She called out, no answer. She puts down her things and went to knock at his door.
“Minato?”
Still no reply. She tried opening the door, but it was locked. She went back down and checked to see if his shoes were here, and it wasn’t. He wasn’t home yet. Where was he?
Minako tried calling his number, but there was no answer. She started texting his friends, Junpei, Kenji and Kazushi. But none of them knew where he was. She was starting to get a little worried.
No, screw that. She IS worried as hell. Where could he have gone to?
She decided to get her jacket and find him herself but just before she could do that, the front door opened.
It was Minato.
She felt relieved, but at the same time she was very angry.
“And just where have you been?” Minako tried to stay calm, but her tone was harsh. Minato flinched.
“With the boys.” Minato answered, not looking at her and removing his shoes.
“Lies. They told me they didn’t know where you were.”
Minato finished with his shoes and walked past by her, seemingly ignoring her words.
“Minato, I am talking to you.”
“What?” Minato answered indifferently.
“What? What?! What do you mean ‘what’? I was worried sick! You didn’t answer any of my calls, and your friends didn’t know where you were! Not to mention that it’s late, who knows what kind of criminal could be lurking around the streets at this moment!” Minako said exasperatedly. It frustrated and angered her that her brother doesn’t seem to be thinking about what she was feeling.
“Calm down, I got home safely didn’t I? It’s fine. You’re worrying over nothing.” Minato proceeded to go upstairs to his room, not daring to look back at his sister.
“Minato Arisato, come back down here! I am not done talking to you!” Minako shouted, but it fell on deaf ears as he did not come back. Minako felt frustrated and angry and sad… She stormed into her room. Her chest was tightening and she did not like it one bit. She tried screaming into her pillow, but it did not ease her pain.
She faced up and stared at the ceiling. What was going on with her brother? Is there a problem at school? Is he being bullied? Was he having a hard time? They were in different classrooms, but even so it was just next to eachother. Yet somehow it feels like she still cannot reach him.
She unknowingly reached into her phone and started typing. She didn’t want to do this, but it feels like her hands has a mind of their own.
Minako: hey number neighbor
Minako: are u there?
Minako feels weak, vulnerable, and pathetic at this moment, but she doesn’t know what else she can do. After a minute, her phone vibrated.
???: Yes, I am.
???: What’s wrong? Did something happen?
Minako: i just
Minako: im sorry for disturbing u once again
Minako: but nothings calming me down again
Minako: i thought today was a nice day because i just hung out with my friends
Minako: but when i got home, my brother wasn’t there
Minako: i got worried and started calling
Minako: he didn’t answer so i texted his friends and even they didn’t know where he was
Minako: i was just about to go out until he came home
Minako: and i asked him where he was, wanting an explanation
Minako: but he just ignored me
Minako: and it fucking hurts because i was worried sick and he didn’t even try talking to me
Minako: im so fucking frustrated and angry and sad
Minako: its like i didn’t matter
Minako: he used to share a lot with me, i am his bestfriend
Minako: well, was, as it seems like now
When Minako finished, she put her phone down and stared at the ceiling. She started contemplating whether she did something to make her brother act like this. When she heard her phone vibrating, she quickly got it.
???: Hey, don’t jump into conclusions. Although I understand where your frustration is coming from. It is valid.
Minako: if its valid they why didn’t my brother talk to me???
???: Perhaps your brother is going through something, and he isn’t ready to talk about it. He just needs some time to figure it out himself and then he will approach you.
Minako: then what should i do????
???: Just continue loving and supporting him. Let him know you are there. And when the time comes, he will approach you.
Minako: do u think i scared him off when i got angry at him
???: I believe not. You were only being a concerned sister. And I am certain he knows that too. Like I said, what you felt is valid. It is normal, I would probably be the same if I was in your position.
Minako suddenly started crying. She closed her eyes and cried. After a few minutes, she decided to reply back.
Minako: thank u number neighbor
Minako: hey is it ok if i call u by another name or something
Minako: number neighbor is too long and it feels a bit weird
???: Alright. What do you suggest?
Minako: well when i call u by a name then u will most likely call me by a name too
Minako: is it ok if it’s a code name or a nickname
Minako: i don’t feel comfortable saying my name
???: That is fine by me. :) What kind of name will it be then?
Minako: is it ok if i call u by my favorite thing
???: And that would be?
Minako: headphones.
???: Fine by me, pancake.
Minako was surprised. Why the sudden endearment?
Minako: im sorry what?
???: Pancake. You will be calling me by your favorite thing, I’ll be calling you by my favorite thing too. :)
Minako: oh
???: Why? Is it weird? Do you want me to change?
Minako: um no
Minako: its fine
Minako: just surprised
???: Alright, pancake.
Minako couldn’t explain why she was suddenly blushing. It’s just their favorite thing. Nothing more. She decided to shake it off and proceeds to change their contact name into ‘Headphones’.
Minako: im feeling a lot better now
Minako: thank u again headphones
Headphones: I am glad I was able to help. :)
Minako: im gonna sleep now
Minako: nanite
Minako: ttyl
Headphones: Sleep well, pancake. :)

JUNE COMEBACKS REVIEW
BLACKPINK: HOW YOU LIKE THAT
Tumblr media
ngl I’m kinda sad bc a lot of y’all don’t like the song ;-; but I can’t do anything about it since it’s your opinion so
but I hope that people know the difference between hating and giving criticism saying the song sucks and that it’s trash music is straight up music
I can get why people are disappointed with the song since everyone wanted almost the same thing, “jennie getting a rap part”, “jisoo saying blackpink in your area” and a high note from rosé
personally I really like the song, to me it’s not the same as dddd and ktl tbh I think it’s different
plus I kinda expected it to be like that bc their songs usually follow that yg style ya know the only songs I say that don’t follow that stereotypical yg style is “love scenario”, “stay” and AKMU’s songs
i mean if you compare the song with other yg artists song, they all have the same vibe to it because of the “yg style” we always say
the song also gives me nct and skz vibes too, like specifically “punch” and “side effects” bc of the heavy edm and also bc their songs has been called noise before dhshd
but enough of that
I really like how the song starts calmly in the beginning and then it starts to be more aggressive
also I like the fact that each of the girls get a chance to say “how you like that”
lisa’s rap????? y e s
personally I feel like this time it had more of a fairer distribution, including lines and center parts
like jisoo actually gets some center parts in the dance break and chorus
i also really like the outfits this era, especially the modernized hanboks! though I have mix feelings about the pink wig dhshdh
speaking of hair, jennie!! she fucking dyed her hair!!!
and rosé is no longer blonde dhsjdj
the parts I found weird is when rosé says “look up in the sky it’s a bird it’s a plane” i have no idea how that fits in the song so
and the “dumdudurum” part at the end, it sounds out of place, like especially after it the song ends
i also think that this is their best choreography! right next to don’t know what to do
overall, I really like the song, if you don’t it’s fine! hylt has the most aesthetic mv’s I’ve seen and the outfits are so much better and it has been said that BLACKPINK’s old stylist left the company in January no not maeng
lisa’s fur coat outfit reminds me of yeji’s outfit in wannabe
would I say that hylt is their best song? no, I think playing with fire was their best song but it’s not a terrible song either
another I like is jisoo owning this era, say what you want, hylt is Jisoo’s era period.
STRAY KIDS: GOD’S MENU
Tumblr media
what even is a concept anymore
we all thought it was going to be some street racer concept
buT NO
it’s a kung fu panda concept dhshdh
felix!!! my baby has lines !!!!
his demonic voice is bACK
hyunjin’s blond hair 😭😭
what the fUCK
the way he tied it up in a ponytail, like sir that is diSRESPECTFUL he really is jaebum’s son huh
okay okay on to the song
it honestly shocked me so much, like the rap parts were so aggressive like and the vocals are kinda angelic???
i really really like the pre-chorus, seungmin’s voice is just so !!!!! i also like seungmin+i.n’s little duet after felix’s part
spEAKING OF FELIX’S PART
“looking like a chef I’m a five star Michelin” bro that part is lowkey demonic looking in the dance
like mans pulled his knees up and put his hands through them while looking directly at you
does that not look demonic to you??? my friend said it reminded her of a spider dhshdhr
also the “dududu” part instantly reminded me of bp’s dddd dhshd like can someone edit a part of bp going “oh wait till I do when I hit you with that” and cuts to skz “DUDUDU”
the fact that no one has done it yet astounishes me
also what the fuck is that chain thing on Chan’s face, who put it there and why dhshd
bless whoever gave changbin dual contacts lens
AND WHO GAVE JEONGIN SLEEVELESS SHIRTS WHO ALLOWED THAT DHSHD
at first I found the choreography a bit funny bc they added like cooking gestures to it dhshd, like stirring the pot in the chorus but my favorite part of the dance is changbin’s part
the entire album was a bop okay, the fact that “god’s menu” wasn’t even the title track and they decided to change it, the fact that jyp has so much TRUST in bang chan also we get to see chan and sana being best friends uwu
“pacemaker” is literally “my pace” 2020 ver dhshd it even has the “nananana” part!
my favorites from the album is “TA”, “blueprint” and “haven”!!
also “easy”,,,, chan what did u do that it can’t be performed in shows
TWICE: MORE & MORE
Tumblr media
wow girl groups are really being criticized this month huh
if y’all don’t know what happened with twice, a lot of people are criticizing twice for not singing live during their encore stages
a lot of them are especially going after momo
I’ve watched their encore stages and I don’t know why people are saying they sound bad???? maybe they need a better vocal coach but the fact that people are taking advantages of the situation just to hate on them smh
a n y w a y s
the song definitely gives a whole lot of “dtna” vibes bc of the tropical concept, its like “dtna” but the mature version
if “dance the night away” had an older sister, it would be “more & more”
also I really like the eve & adam concept, “more & more” is also another “creepy”ish song that is hidden behind a catchy tune, like “yes or yes” where ppl think it’s a cute song but the lyrics says otherwise
okay actually writing this out, it’s mv has “dtna” vibe but the song is so much like “yes or yes”
if you read the lyrics, the girls are basically saying that “no matter how hard you try to hide, you’re going to be mine again”
even in dahyun’s rap she says “I’m naturally selfish, I’m sorry if you didn’t know” and “you will fall for me, you can’t say no no”
it’s almost the same as her part in “yes or yes” where she says “there is no letters n and o” dhshdh sorry this becam a whole theory
back the real song review, I’m so glad that momo got a dance break! I think that this is their fairest line distribution yet. jeongyeon got her lines, dubchaeng got their rap parts and momo has a lot of center parts!!
and the girls look so much happier during their promotions especially tzuyu! she was smiling so much, maybe it’s because mina is with them and I’m so happy they get to perform as nine again
i really like their choreography and the part where they do the chest bounce is really satisfying idk why dhsdh
plus jeongyeon got better outfits this era cough feel special era cough
overall, I really like this comeback and it’s nice that nayeon got the high notes this time instead of jihyo
IZ*ONE: SECRET STORY OF THE SWAN
Tumblr media
oh boy this is definitely my favorite song of this month
it’s so much different than their other songs!!!
and there’s so much to go on about!
wonyoung, minju, sakura and hyewon literally improved so much. im so proud of them !!!
hyewon, nako and sakua getting to sing the chorus??? y e s
chaeyena rap parts????? y e s
chaeyeon getting a dance break AND a high note???? Y E S
my favorite parts is eunbi+chaewon pre chorus wow I have a thing for pre choruses don’t I dhsh
i will say that this song vies the girls the chance to show how much they’ve improved throughout the eras, especially the j-line and visual line since a lot of people said they didn’t belong in izone
wonyoung and yujin's expressions are really on point as well
and yena's hip move dhshdhs
it's also rlly cute how eunbi throws confetti at her part dhshd
it’s refreshing to see how the girls improved
unfortunately, izone will be disbanding this year ;-; this is why I never liked the produce series
but we do have some ideas what will happen to the members though, we all know yena will be added into everglow, i having a feeling that eunbi and chaeyeon will be debuting as a soloist, they have so much potential plus the radiate chungha energy
nako, hitomi and sakura would most likely return to Japan, although I see sakura staying in korea to pursue an acting career and hitomi as a producer since she wrote some of izone’s songs
yuri might debut as a solo or debut in a new girl group as main vocalists, the same goes for chaewon
i see minju and hyewon going into acting careers and CF contracts, the same as kang mina, especially since minju is now an mc for music core
whereas for wonyoung and yujin, their both still young so I think they’ll finish school before re-debuting in groups plus yujin will be attending sopa
especially wonyoung, we all know that she’s actually really smart and is good at academics, i also think she might do modeling work, she fits the criteria
i also kinda see yujin pursuing an acting career because she will be in the theatre and film department in sopa. unless starship is going to debut a new girl group, I hope that yujin can debut as a soloist instead
WEKI MEKI: OOPSY
Tumblr media
*inhales*
LUCY AND LUA FINALLY GETTING THE LINES THEY D E S E R V E D
I’m so happy dhshdhhs
also lua fits the short hairstyle so much, I’ve literally fallen for her help I can’t get up
as much as I love yoojung, it’s nice to see lucy rapping
the song is very catchy, I especially like rina’s part in the second verse of the song
i also love the “wolf & hunter” concept for the album
like the pictures were very beautiful, I also like how they use white for the wolves and black for the hunters, it’s like painting the hunters at the bad guys and the wolves as the good guys
I am in love with Lucy, Lua and Sei’s “nonono” part in the chorus
and the choreography for the chorus too
as much as I love elly’s blue hair, she slays in black hair dhshd I
I really love their outftis this era, i like how it’s all pants for the girls too
my favorite outfits are the black outfits from the gif
overall, this is definitely their fairest line distribution cough tika taka and dazzle dazzle cough
NATURE: GIRLS
Tumblr media
this is my second favorite song of the month
I love the whole horror concept and I also like the fact that they released the uncensored version of the mv
it’s give the song much more of the horror vibe
I’m new to Nature and as far as I know, a member is stuck in China and another member sat out due to an injury. please correct me if I’m wrong
the outfits might be simple, but it fits so right with the song, I prefer the white dresses over the black ones
it kinda gives out the feeling that the girls are like asylum patients ya know, whereas the black dresses gives out that the girls are rich daughters that were sent away
I really like LU and Haru’s parts
the dance is also kinda a simple but it looks great!
overall, I hope that Nature will do this concept again, actually I hope to see more groups do this kind of concepts more
WAYV: TURN BACK TIME
Tumblr media
did this comeback scare me? yes yes it did
bro the teasers were so scARY
yangyang was literally laughing like a mANIAC
MANS WAS IN AN ASYLUM OKAY
their teasers gave me so much suicide squad vibes
also, why the fuck were 4/7 members not wearing shiRTS
sm do you have a shirt shortage??? I’m sure nctzens are more than happy to donate some shirts to you
okay anyways, I’ve always liked wayv’s sci-fi concept, I don’t know if the mv’s are connected or not but I think they are
“take off” is them basically flying away from earth and they landed in space in “moonwalk” and it seems they have been captured in “turn back time”
very inch resting dhshd
listen, I may be chinese but I can’t understand 70% of the song because of how fast it goES
so with that saying, yANGYANG DID NOT COME TO PLAY
his rap was amazing !!!! he is definitely one of sm’s best rappers along with taeyong and mark
my favorite part is lucas and hendery’s rap parts and then it switches to xiaojun and yangyang + kun, ten and xiaojun getting highnotes
the dance break is so satisfying to watch too
“stop, rewind, turn back time” and “5432” part is so satisfying
also I’m really impressed with how fast LabelV responded when fans pointed out that some of the outfits had offensive phrases in them, they took the time to edit it out of the teasers and the mv, cheers to them
also! i find it funny that wayv released the Korean version of “turn back time” but all of us were much more shocked at the fact that Ten got another cat dhshd
SEVENTEEN: LEFT & RIGHT
Tumblr media
first of all, dokyeom looks so gOOD IN THE MV
second of all, vernon and wonwoo’s “hana dul set” will forever be iconic
third, seungcheol is back 😭😭
just like twice, they get to perform as 13 again dhsjdsn
AND THEY LOOK SO HAPPY DURING THIS ERA TOO
LIKE HAVE YOU SEEN WONWOO?? HE’S SUCH A SMILEY BABY with his orange mic dhshd
also if y’all don’t have tiktok, svt has been doing the “left & right” with so many other idols including chungha and apink’s naeun!
haha joshua hong and wen junhui being real disrespectful with those sleeveless shirts
bonus point we got svt x nct china line + mark and joshua interaction at music bank
their choreography looks so fun too dhshd
the entire comeback is so cute and colorful
my favorite parts are vernon and seungcheol’s rap parts
also vernon be rocking that greaser style
their new album is so versatile, like, “fearless”, “left & right”, “kidult” and “my my”?? who’s doing it like seventeen
i love their new songs so much especially “kidult”
overall, I really really love this comeback
WJSN: BUTTERFLY
Tumblr media
I couldn’t find a group scene gif pls forgive me
let me say, I am absolutely in love with the concept, the outfit concept for this is so creative, I don’t know if any other groups have done it before but !!
their outfits evovle like a butterfly!!
at first, the outfits were plain pastel colours but they slowly become more detailed and colourful throughout the stages, like a caterpillar to a butterfly!
center yeoreum!!!
and dayoung looks so pretty in short hair 🥺
and again, as far as I know, the Chinese members are in China, two of them are apart of the Chinese group Rocket Girl and I think Chengxiao recently returned to Korea
I really like their ending pose where their hands are in the butterfly gesture and the “wings” are slowly flapping
and how their arms represent their wings during the chorus
by far one of the moor creative comebacks in my opinion
also, it’s nice to hear soobin doing the high note instead of yeonjung, let yeonjung rest her voice once in a while ya know
SUNMI: PPORAPPIPAM
Tumblr media
THE QUEEN IS BACKKK
also wonder girls reunion uwu
the teaser gave me so much "barbie: island princess" vibes so the entire mv was not what I expected
at all
the mv literally describes sunmi a lot, she basically does whatever the fuck she wants like when she posted that pic of jyp on instagram dhshdhs
it’s so funny especially the scene where sunmi is wearing the teletubbies head
and at the end when she wakes up and goes back to sleep is just a mood lmao
something about the song really gives me a lot of “siren” vibes but happier???
i really like the way she pronounces “pporappipam” it took me one week to finally pronounced it dhshd
idk why but I really like the instrumental, especially the intro, it’s very melancholic
also she wears converse while performing the song bc she has to step on the dancers at one part !!
speaking of that part, it’s so cool!!! the way she climbs up the dancers like stairs and then she just trust-falls into their arms

Giggles and Gunshots
Winona(oc)x Gage fic
Tumblr media
When sole asked if Winona wanted to go with them and nick to Nuka World she was too curious to say no. She heard about the place and only dreamed she could’ve been there when the park was still up and running, but seeing it now was fairly close.
Gage watched as the trio arrived at the transit center and laughed. A vault dweller, an old synth and some curly haired chick? They wouldn’t last a sec on the gauntlet, but what the hell, he needed to get rid of Coulter.
The detective was smart enough to not buy Harley’s bullshit but they decided to come anyways. He had to admit, they had balls.
They crossed the gauntlet using their abilities to disarm every trap, destroy every turret and kill anyone who threatened their life. Surely a dynamic trio.
The vaultie was the force, the detective the brains and the chick had the agility.
A good team.
When they arrived at the arena, the first one to look down at him and Coulter was the curly haired gal. The overboss catcalled her, making the other two turn their heads and send him a deep glare.
As for him, he thought she was pretty.
She had a fine body, and she was tall, like, REALLY tall. Not that it was a bad thing, on the contrary, he liked big women.
But she seemed like the person who was too nice for her own good, so that made her weak.
He told them that they should use the squirt gun and use their number advantage to place Coulter in a disadvantaged position.
They had a good plan. The curly haired girl distracted Coulter, dodging his attacks skillfully while the detective fired the squirt gun at him, leaving the vault dweller to fire at him with their laser machine gun.
They managed to take him down, proclaiming the vault dweller, as they were the one who took coulter down, the new overboss. Unfortunately one of Coulter’s hit made the chick stumble, making her fall, hitting her head hard against the floor. She was out cold.
As soon as they won the detective rushed to the gal and the vaultie picked her up, since they were stronger.
Gage led them quickly to the market, making their way though the place searching for Mackenzie.
When Winona finally opened her eyes, still feeling a bit disoriented and dizzy, it was a relief to everyone, mostly for the detective.
They spent the day telling her how the things on the park worked, the places Gage showed them and what responsibilities Sole had now that they were the overboss.
Sole considered passing the title to Winona, since she was a clever and ruthless woman. If someone could humanize the raiders, it was her. But she had a lot to loose, she had a child to take care of and having a bullseye on her back wasn’t exactly on her wish list.
Gage’s eyes widened at the mention of her being a mother. She was so young! He totally wouldn’t have expected that. The guy that got her pregged sure was a lucky bastard for getting a woman like that, he was almost jealous.
The trio stayed for almost a week in the park, they managed to take back the galactic zone in just two days and had a successful meeting with the gangs.
The gangs had their favorites of course. The pack absolutely LOVED Winona, mostly Mason witch gave her a suggestive look from time to time
They liked her for her ruthlessness and they surely didn’t want to be given orders by a minuteman or a synth.
Unfortunately, the vaultie had things to attend to in the commonwealth and something about a guy, Eddie something.
Of course Gage could’ve handled the park on his own, after all he’s done it a lot of times as right hand man, but Winona insisted on staying. He was confused. Didn’t she have a kid? Shouldn’t she be taking care of him right now? Fortunately she calmed his toughs, assuring him the kid was in the care of one of her close friends who also happened to be the mayor of goodneighbor.
So that’s how it went, the robot and the vaultie left, leaving Winona as the one in charge with Gage helping her with what he could as her second in command.
Winona always had a little stroll around the market every morning, greeting the raiders, merchants and slaves that she encountered along the way, much to Gage’s disliking. But overall she was a good leader, handled everything well, she always tries to satisfy everyone even if it means to do things she doesn’t really like and all, but made her position clear if anyone disrespected her.
Gage kept finding it weird that she always kept up a cheery demeanor everywhere she went or that she smiled sweetly at everyone and her politeness. He suspected that it was just a shell, that she would probably turn on them and pull up a cynical and horrifying bloodthirst all of a sudden, but he never knew.
Winona decided to keep clearing parks so she thought Safari Adventure was a great place to start, after all, how hard could it be? Gage obviously accompanied her, wouldn’t want the gal to get killed.
When they first arrived at the park they saw this dude fighting a weird kind of deathclaw. Gage wanted to just leave them be and watch how this turned up, but Winona obviously thought otherwise and, well, if boss says so then it’s done.
After they helped the guy kill the creature he started rambling about more of them attacking him and his family. This man talked funny but they made no comment on it.
Okay. What the hell.
So it turned out this guy was raised by gorillas.
That explains a lot.
But whatever, the three of them headed to the place Cito said the things emerged from and of course the found another one of those bitches.
Winona was lucky that Gage grabbed her in time, saving her of the claws of that thing as the other guy took it down.
The girl squirmed and giggled at the man’s touch, she was ticklish. The adorable chuckles of the gal made Gage feel funny on his gut for a sec before he brushed it off and released her.
They went into a weird place with glass panels covering holes on the wall that they later learned were a place where pre- war reptiles, like snakes and iguanas were kept so that the people could see them. Gage made a comment on how he kinda liked the idea of little not-so-mutated deathclaws as pets, witch made Winona giggle.
Passing the reptile’s section they found an old lab that turned out to be where those creatures, that they now learned were called “gatorclaws” were made.
So they shut down the machine and cleared out the rest of the park, going up the treehouse and placing the pack’s flag up the flagpole.
The woman took a minute to appreciate the view of the park from there, It was dawn so the sun going down really made the scenery look even more beautiful. As she looked at the horizon with a calmed look in her eyes, Gage caught himself staring at the beauty before him.
She was truly a work of art herself, better yet with the orange sunlight coating her tan skin and chestnut hair and making her ocean eyes shine in a beautiful way that made his cheeks grow a shade of pink
He was mesmerized by this woman, blinded by her beauty, hypnotized by her laugh, and he hated it. He hated how his face grew hotter and his stomach felt weird because of her. And the worst was that she probably had a husband waiting for her at home with their child.
But then again.
Why had she decided to stay?
He was still confused by that, so he couldn’t stop himself from asking her.
“Isn’t your child and husband waiting for you at home? Why have you decided to stay, boss?”
Her face seemed to darken at the question, looking at the side for a second before turning her head to meet his eyes. “I, um... i only have my son” , she responded with melancholy.
Shit, he fucked up.
Of course, that’s why she left her child with a friend, why she always felt uncomfortable by romantic advances on her. The guy wasn’t there. “Oh, shit sorry i-“
“Don’t bother. He isn’t dead, he abandoned me” ,she interrupted him, her look darkening even more. Perfect, he fucked up even more.
Gage was suddenly infuriated. How could that son of a bitch abandon his woman, pregnant with HIS child! To fend for herself!? The ‘wealth was dangerous and even tough he knew Winona was a tough girl, she was all alone.
He couldn’t imagine the hell she’d been though.
“Oh boss. Im sorry i brought it up, im an idiot” The woman looked at him and smiled sideways, taking ahold of his hand.
“It’s okay, i guess i needed to tell someone eventually...” she sniffled and kept on talking, “after some time, i had the luck of finding my cousin, Laura, and she led me to Goodneighbor.”
“She told me that there i could get proper medical attention and that i could have my baby safely. I was three months pregnant at the time by the way.” She chuckled dryly making the man furrow his brows.
“So there i met Nick and John. They helped me a lot though my pregnancy and while giving birth.” She smiled at the memory of the men she held so close to her heart. “When i first held Alexander in my arms, i knew i had to toughen up, I couldn’t keep crying myself to sleep because of that man. I had to do it for him”.
“But even so, the pain never truly goes away. Everyday he reminds me more of him and i just-“ tears started falling from her eyes like a waterfall. Gage froze, he wasn’t good at comforting people.
Despite his awkwardness and showing his pride aside, he wrapped his arms around her.
Winona was taken aback by the man’s actions, but then she started crying harder, hugging him back as she fell to the floor.
He never let go of her.
He knew what it was like to be betrayed by the ones you thought you could trust, to be backstabbed and then thrown away like garbage. She didn’t deserve that.
She was probably the kindest person he’s ever met and yet there was an asshole out there that just threw her out like if she was a broken ragdoll.
That piece of shit surely earned himself a place in Porter’s list
Still he held her as she cried in his shoulder, holding her as if she were made of glass, that started cracking with her every sob.
After a few minutes, her crying died down and she lifted her head from his shoulder, looking at him with puffy and red eyes.
He couldn’t stop the hand that separated itself from her back and wiped away a stray tear from the corner of her eye, making her giggle wholeheartedly.
The man let a small chuckle leave his mouth before he stared at her again, this time tough, she was staring right back at him.
Subconsciously they both started to get closer and closer before Winona got them out of their transe by yawning.
“You wouldn’t happen to be tired, right boss?” He said with a grin and raising his brow at her.
The woman was about to respond but was again interrupted by her yawning. Gage sighed, as he shook his head in a mocking way.
“There’s a sleeping sack over there, you take a rest and i’ll keep guard” he said graving her hand and leading her there to lay down.
As he was about to leave, Winona grabbed his arm, catching his attention. “Hey Gage?...” she said, tiredness clear on her voice. The man hummed at her in question.
“Thanks...”
And then she fell into the arms of tiredness, falling asleep.

Diabolik lovers Chaos Lineage: Ayato Sakamaki (Story 10 + CG)
This chapter was amazing, prepare tissues because I literally cried an hour over this (╥_╥) I loved this so much, I hope you do too! ♡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Place: Outside - Forest
Yui: (From that point we’re trying to go to the Scarlet mansion, but it's hard to find it—)
Hey, Ayato-kun. Is it really around here?
Ayato: ...
(Admin note: this cutie got lost iM-)
Yui: (He‘s silent... don’t tell me...)
Ayato: Well, if we just continue walking we‘ll get there
Yui: (I was right! I thought he‘s silent because he’s thinking about a strategy but we‘re just lost in the forest)
Laito: So you mean, we‘re lost in the forest?
Subaru: We’re getting more and more lost. Is that really your intension!?
Kanato: It‘s literally the worst. I'm so tired and I can’t walk anymore
Subaru: We should sit down for a second. We all need to rest for at least a little
Laito: If you don't know the way, you should‘ve told us already
We just continued walking and now we can't tell where we are anymore
Ayato: Ah! Shut up! If you walk according to what I say, we‘d arrive soon!
Kanato: You‘re so confident with your none existing skills. That confidence just caused us to get lost in the forest
Yui: (Haha, seeing it this way, I am glad that the usual reverse winding routine returned)
(But it's a little hard to go around in this forest forever)
*footsteps*
Yui: ... ah
(... my consciousness is fading)
(I wasn’t blood sucked or anything but, I might be tired from walking all the time)
(But if I say it now, I may be annoying to everyone. Let's try to be patient a little more)
*footsteps*
Kanato: I can’t walk anymore. When will we reach the scarlet mansion?
I won‘t walk one step further then this until you can direct the way!
Laito: I‘m tired too. Can’t we go home already?
Subaru: It's a mistake that Ayato is the head of this. We should just return home
Ayato: Okay, fine! Well then look around and look for the way!
Subaru: Heh? We just followed your instructions! I‘m not taking orders from an idiot anymore
Ayato: What did you say!?
Laito: I admit, I hate to stay here forever. It's bothersome, but stop fighting over it
Subaru: Damnit, I wish I could‘ve prevented Ayato from the beginning
Kanato: Theres no other way. Let’s look for a place to rest
Yui: (I wonder if this is all right... It would be nice if we could get to Reiji's mansion safely)
Ayato: It's strange, their memories are gone and yet the act like they never lost them
Yui: Yes, everyone acts like they usually do
Even if their memories are strange, you won’t lose your true identity.
Ayato: Well then, you hated me for not acting like I usually did when I lost my memories, didn’t you?
Yui: ... huh?
Ayato: The bad things I did to you, how I treated you...
Tumblr media
♡Roses♡
Ayato's arm: Ah, I wanted to touch you more... but, I ended up hurting you the entire time.
Yui's cheek: Don’t look at everyone like that... the way your eyes are staring at me now, they really make me feel a little stronger.
Ayato: I only did that because my memories were insane
but, in your eyes I saw how afraid you were.
Or was it Ruki who told you that I couldn‘t control my strength and I‘d kill you like that?
If that crazy figure was the original me...
You might’ve ran away someday and never remember my name...
Yui: (Hey, Ayato-kun, were you always troubled by your feelings like this?)
— it‘s okay
because there’s nothing wrong with Ayato-kun anymore.
I will stay by your side, now and forever. That's fine, isn't it?
Ayato: You...
Looks like you became tougher
Yui: That might be true, but only when I‘m with you
Ayato: Idiot, you‘re truly fine
Tumblr media
Ayato: But, I guess this is a good thing. Please don‘t leave me as well *kisses*
Yui: *kisses*
(...his kisses... are warm and soft...)
(Please feel relieved, Ayato-kun. I like you no matter what happens, nothing can hold me back from falling for you again)
Ayato: Moments like those are making me feel like all the bad things never happened
Yui: (His mood has returned to it’s usual condition. That‘s good... it’s all right now)
Let's meet Shu and Reiji-san and go home together
Ayato: In this ambience, you shouldn’t mention the names of other men.
I already told you that I‘m the only one for you. It's almost time to realize that...
*Ayato bites Yui*
Yui: Ah...
(He‘s bitting my earlobe! It’s painful but on the other side it tickles a little bit... !)
S-Stop...
Ayato: Nope, I won’t. Your reaction is interesting and I won’t stop here.
But you didn’t resist my punishment. So that’s for you... *kisses*
Yui: Ngh... *kisses*
(My body feels hot... the power of his kisses are getting me every time)
(I want to kiss him more like this. I want to be here forever ...)
Kanato: Excuse me. Why are you playing instead of doing your chores?
Yui: (Kya, Kanato-kun !? He probably saw the previous kiss... !)
Ayato: Tch, none of your business
Kanato: If you don’t hurry up we’re going to leave you two here
Yui: Huh? You found a way already?
Kanato: Obviously
Yui: That’s...
Kanato: Now let’s hurry up so we can return home soon and I can finally sleep peacefully
Subaru: Hey. I hope you’re not joking about that
Laito: Oh? You really found a way out of here?
Kanato: You all are useless. I'm on the way to the mansion already, so please hurry up and follow me
Yui: (It‘s rare that Kanato-kun acts like this. Is that really the Kanato-kun I know...)
Place: Scarlet Mansion — Outside
Tumblr media
Kanato: — Here it is. That’s the scarlet mansion
Ayato: Seriously, we found it
Laito: Ahh~ finally
Subaru: ... ugh
Yui: Thanks to you Kanato-kun. Thank you so much!
Kanato: No, you don’t need to thank me
Yui: (I wanted to thank you, Kanato-kun .... but something seems wrong)
(If you look at the words and expressions of Kanato-kun, I‘d become anxious. But why?)
*time passes*
Subaru: Hey, don’t push
Ayato: I’m not pushing. You’re just taking too much space
Laito: Ayato was it, wasn’t it? You’re literally taking space for two people
Kanato: I can barely manage to sit here. Please go further away
Yui: Hey, everyone. We’re still hiding you should be a little more quiet ...!
Ayato: You should be quiet. Your voice is the loudest right now
Subaru: Hey look there. I can see someone coming
Yui: ... huh
*someone appears*
Tumblr media
Kino: How bothersome. Why do I need to go outside with Yuma
Yuma: The same goes for me with you. I can’t handle your appearance
Ayato: That’s Yuma and the other one is Kino
Subaru: They’re leaving the mansion. I wonder where they plan to go?
Laito: Maybe a reconnaissance?
Ayato: This could be our chance. It’s true that only Shu and Reiji are in the mansion right?
Yui: Yes, I’m sure about that
(I’m really going to meeting Shu and Reiji. I feel kinda nervous ...)
(The other day Ayato-kun was just seriously injured, but what should I do if this happens again ...)
(No, this time I can count on Ayato-kun. Somehow we will make them remember their memories and ask for cooperation!)
(If neither Shu nor Reiji's memories return, then... I don’t know what to do)
(I should think positive! Let's do our best!)
Ayato: OK, we’ll get in immediately. Let's go!
Kanato: I’ll wait here because I’m too tired to walk anymore
Laito: I won’t go either, but do your best
Subaru: If you want to go there, go for it. I’ll wait here
Ayato: Hah?! Hey, what’s with you all!
Laito: You see, it would be a problem if those two who just left would come back. So we’ll watch over here
Right? Subaru and I will warn you if something happens
Subaru: I can decide things on my own. The point is that you just want someone to stay with you
Kanato: I will watch over here as well. Please bring me some delicious sweets from the Scarlet mansion
Ayato: You all...
It's alright, if I'm going in alone, I’ll bring as much information as possible!
Subaru: So said that when we started walking already. Now hurry up and go in!
Yui: Hey Ayato-kun. I’ll go with you...
*Yui struggles to walk*
Yui: ...huh
Ayato: Hey, what are you talking about? You can barely manage to stand
Yui: (That’s right... my feet are weak and my head hurts)
(If Ayato-kun wouldn’t support me, I’d fall over)
Sorry, I’m stumbling a little
(Should I give it a shot? I came so far and I can’t give up now —)
Ayato: Are you really okay?
Choices
1) — I’m okay (white) ♡♡♡
2) — Should I wait here? (black)
Tumblr media
— I’m okay♡
Yui: Yes, I’m fine
Ayato: If you say so. That’s good tho. But if you can’t walk anymore, tell me immediately
Yui: (Is he worried about me? Ayato-kun is... so gentle...)
— Should I wait here?
Yui: All right. It’s probably better to stay here and not get in your way right?
Ayato: No, if you stay behind me, you won’t get in trouble
Yui: Yes. All right
end Choices
Ayato: It's dangerous to go with me, but if you stay here, I can’t guarantee laito won‘t do anything weird.
So that why, you should walk behind me. Don’t go anyway else
Yui: Yes understood! I won’t leave Ayato-kun’s side!
(I will go along with him. It was a good decision)
Place: Scarlet Mansion — Corridor
Tumblr media
Ayato: Good, we managed to get in through the window
Yui: Yeah, we got in the house. Is this ... the Corridor?
Ayato: Why is nobody here then? Let’s head to the livingroom
Yui: Yes
Place: Scarlet Mansion — Living room
Tumblr media
Ayato: Hey! Is anyone here?
Yui: Ayato-kun! We’ll be found if you yell around like that!
Ayato: What are you saying. We’re searching for them anyway, so we need to make them notice we’re here
*Shu and Reiji appear*
Tumblr media
Shu: ... be quiet. You’re too noisy
Reiji: Looks like Eve is paying us a visit, Shu. You should welcome her friendly
Yui: Oh, Reiji and Shu-san!
Ayato: Ha, I knew you two are in a place like this. It’s only usual that you’re in the living room
Shu: Don’t act like you know us. We just waited here because we knew your next movement
Reiji: You’re right. Seems like the rat really got trapped in our mansion.
That’s why, it‘s really nice from you to bring Eve directly to our mansion already. We should thank you.
Ayato: Tch, stick that thank you wherever you want. I won’t give her to you in the first place.
Reiji: You still are pretty disrespectful, even after you lost the last fight. Now Shu, let‘s get Eve this time
Shu: ...yes
Yui: (Reiji and Shu got up. I guess I can't prevent a fight anymore)
(But the real purpose is to restore their memories, but Ayato-kun forgot about this, right?)
(I hope we can return to a normal family again …)

i’m baack!
nope, you might have hoped that I stopped writing and Im sorry to disappoint you because i didnt. #sorrynotsorry
just havent written for a while, things happened, world shut down and all. now im back with bit of bitching again. and again im not sure how long this will be, and what exactly will i write but i feel like giving out about some stuff and some people, so stick around! first of all, in a way i wonder how antisocial my life is because this staying at home isnt much different than my everyday introvert (people hating) life. im surprised tho, i still work full time, finished dan browns origin that took me over a year to finish (might tell you how interesting it is compared to all his previous ones that I read in under a week). started new book, finished it in a week and a half, started a new one. so book reading is going well, i walk my dog often sometimes for over an hour, almost finished better call saul (great show if you watched breaking bad, explains a lot!), went back to my laptop gaming (sorry ps4 and sorry money i spent on it), btw im playing witcher 2 and sims 4 mostly. spent hours sometimes watching YT. worked out every second day, did online dancing classes, my time was fullfilled. work has been hectic because of some people, then this virus making it bit more hectic, then people making my life hectic, my anxiety was spiking, ya know, usual march in your life. dont ask me how did i manage to do all that
im not actually anxious because about getting virus, im happy to stay home, but things chained up, one after another and i used books and games to keep me occupied :D
things come and go, you just need to know how to control not yourself, but how you react to those things.when times get tough, you need to get tougher!
now lets get to the bitching part.
ha notice the new ‘’keep reading’’ part? stupid of me to not put it sooner.
Im a weird one. i know. ive been told that many times. with that im difficult one as well. just mixture of everything. what im mostly interested in is people and peoples minds, and no, i would never be a sociologist or psychologist as im at the same time really annoyed with people and lack of communication. and you know that most of people are assholes. at the same time im an introvert, and i have social anxiety but i also like to experience new things and go places and do things that involve other people. i dont say im smart or better than anyone, i did experience in multiple situations that many people are not on the same level as me and makes me wonder how did you survive till this point in your life?
take this pandemic for instance. all the panic buyers and people reading and believing everything they see on tv (watch V for Vendetta and it will make you question things). the simple rule is dont go out. and what people do? they go out. like since when do you hike every day? bullshit sit at home and watch tv. if youre smart youll do something useful. kids coughing at people around as  part of the challenge, like wtf? how are we still allowed to reproduce as a race? is brain dying out with every single generation? Maybe the world did deserve this virus, survival of the fittest, if you get what i mean.
anyway lets go back to people again. (like i talked about something else). im such a why person and i tend to see through peoples bullshit. i always say that honest communication is best way to avoid bad situations. 
and being honest requires some balls, and this year some people have been proving they dont have any. usually i dont believe in second chances, if i do give someone a second chance then there is a good reason. but like when i give someone three opportunities to be honest and the other person keeps on bullshitting and they know i know its not true, thats where i draw a line. its mostly for me to see how far can one person go and treat me in that way. if i do persue that long be sure that i know what youre saying is not true, i just want to know how far can you go. one thing is if people change their minds, ok, i dont mind, let me know. treating me as im stupid thats downright disrespectful and low blow. i keep seeing that thats more reflection of who they are and not who you are and you all should keep that in mind. 
as said, im an introvert, i wont text someone first mostly and my close friends know that and dont mind, they dont think i hate them, we’re still friends. my method is mirroring, how you treat me thats how i treat you. if youve ever wondered why i treat you the way i do, step back and think about your own actions.
in these days of modern technology  our everyday communication is through mobile phones and the easiest way is to pretend you didnt see something or something like i didnt have my phone with me. 
like cmon, it 2020. we both know its bullshit. just stop being an asshole and be honest, grow some balls and tell that person what is actually up. whether its your friend, family, someone youve been talking to - little honesty goes long way and can solve many problems. no one deserves to be treated that way and it only reflects bad on you.
i know its hard, it is way easier to just ignore and pretend it doesnt exsist and hope it goes away, but its not the way. i had situations like that, and being a person who always wants to know why i always want to give people the reason why, either if they ask me or if the situation requires it. i had situations when someone was trying so hard around me and i wasnt feeling the same way but i told them honestly what is up, yeah, some of them stopped talking to me which i completely understand and with some i still talk to this day, some of the even thanked me for being honest.
COMMUNICATION is the key kids, dont be cowards.

Shipping rules,hcs,and ask box info.
If you want some hcs made for you. Feel free to ask.
Ask box is open.
I am not big on canon characters shipped together. But i will do some if asked nicely. I mostly do self shipping. And self ship requests. As thats really the only thing i do.
Some characters if you ask for hcs for i dont know as much so i mostly do parts 1-4 as 5 i only can do mista and maybe abba. Maybe ghiaccio. But im not good with those characters as much. But any characters from 1-4 im very good with. So feel free to ask.
Ships i will do and am comfortable with
Jonathan x erina
Ceaser x Joseph x suzie q
Ceaser x Joseph
Joseph x suzie q
Joseph x avdol (tho this one i do more platonically but i can do a romantic ship if you'd like. I don't really pair avdol with anyone really)
Koichi x yukako (this one i take with a grain of salt buuuut i can do it if you'd like)
Jotaro x dolphins . Joking,just joking . I can write personal opinions and general hcs bout jotaros married life if you'd like. But since he did marry and have a kid. I kind aleave joot joot out of shipping hcs unless its for self shipping purposes.
Dio with almost anything and anyone cuz that bitch a horny vampire and canonlly bi so.....he's cool . I dont mind indulging with dio. But i love dio self shippers. Y'all rock my za wardo!
I hc Joseph as bisexual. Don't hate me plz. He's the only one i hc as queer/lgbt. Ok? I just vibe with grandpa. He's jiji. *hugs Joseph* . I don't really hc anyone else as queer so plz no hate.
I do not tolerate harassment and disrespect. If you do not like my hcs or anything i write. Take your business elsewhere. I will not write for anyone who sends anon hate. Or hate in general.
Pairs i will not do and do not feel comfy with:
Jotokak ( i have my reasons and personal feelings about this.)
Avpol (i don't really care for it. And i dont see polnareff that way. Nor avdol. I see them as friends and if anything avdol is like a mentor for polnareff. Since he is older than pol pol technically. I am not as squick or cringe with this as i am with other pairs.)
Okuyasu x josuke. (This is a hard no for me as i see them like brothers and it feels hella weird for me. They are the best friends duo i need to see. Hella positive and uplifting for dudes. Not toxic at all. And if they are paired up in a romantic way i feel they lose that importance. Plus again it feels weird to me)
I WILL NOT DO ANYONE PAIRED WITH GIORNO OR NARANCIA. AS THOSE ARE BABIES TO ME. I DO NOT FEEL COMFY ABOUT THAT. (If you want self shipping i know some people that may take your requests but i do not feel comfy with those sweethearts ok?)
Like i said i don't really ship canon characters together with each other.
I'd rather do x readers and self shipping. Its really the only shipping i do anymore.
Its way more fun and inclusive.
I DO NOT DO NSFW HCS AND OR REQUESTS FOR MINORS! IF YOUR UNDER 18. I WILL REFUSE TO DO NSFW. FLUFF IS FINE BUT NOT NSFW. ALL CHARACTERS WILL BE AGED UP AND ARE OF AGE OF CONSENT.
IF YOU ARE NOT OF AGE AND YOU DO NOT LISTEN TO THE RULES YOU WILL BE BLOCKED.
I will only do 1 or 2 requests at a time.
I do hcs and fun dabbles. Nothing heavy or full on novels or long x readers. As i can only focus so much.
I may do matchups eventually but for now the ask box is for hcs requests and self shipping purposes.
Again nsfw content is for adults 18+ only. And will be tagged accordingly.
Im trying to keep this safe,fun and open as i can.
While setting boundaries for myself and others.
I appreciate your time. Please read this if you wish to request something.
I have lots of jojo husbandos. But polnareff is the one i self ship with the most and is absolutely baaaaaaabe. 💖 (love me some pol pol. So i get passionate about him. Srry if i vent about this lovely Frenchman)
Also if you wanna show me your art you are most welcome to. Even if its a ship i dont like. I appreciate all art. As long as its not disgusting or disturbing i.e guro,blood mention, etc . If so give me some warning.
Any other questions feel free to ask.
Much love jojo fans i love you.

TEENAGERS; PART SIX
a t t r a c t i v e
you wake up after last night’s fight with yuta. he’s staring at you, and you notice something.
warnings: language
an: i could stare at yuta for a very long amount of time on end and i wouldn’t complain. also, there’s a lot of just cute stuff ig in here so, yeah. alright, here’s part six, fellas.
Tumblr media
that next morning, you woke up to your alarm this time. you quickly got up and put on your outfit for the day, and did your makeup. you decided that this look would be cute with a bun, so that's how you did your hair.
you walked outside to find yuta, standing outside his door, staring at you. it wasn't a pleasant stare, it was almost scary. but, in a way, it was almost attractive.
you've never realized how attractive yuta truly is. you've only seen him as your friend, and never really took time to look at his facial features.
his jawline. his plump lips. his sharp nose. his beautiful eyes. his adam’s apple. he was a truly beautiful man. but you don't like him? you like taeyong. this isn't right.
"good morning. you've been staring at me for quite a while, miss (y/n). see something you like?" he broke your thoughts off.
"no, i was just thinking."
"about what? me?"
"no. can we talk later?" you asked.
"yeah." he said, walking downstairs after.
arriving downstairs, you see jaehyun and johnny standing around the kitchen island. they were both on their phones, but still talking. it wasn’t like them, usually, they were pretty social.
“what’s up with you guys?” you asked them.
“what do you mean?” johnny asked, looking up at you.
“you guys are never on your phones, so it looks weird. i don’t know.”
“are you okay, (y/n)? last night was pretty rough.” jaehyun asked.
“yeah, i’m fine. we’re gonna talk later. it’ll pass, hopefully.” you confess.
“well, i hate seeing you guys like this. seeing friends like you guys fight over something so pity.” johnny said.
at that moment, yuta walked back in through the garage door. he didn’t say anything to you guys, he just ran upstairs and grabbed his stuff for school. you guys followed him out of the door, not knowing what to say.
you guys pulled into the k. keopi parking lot. it wasn’t as packed as it usually was this morning, and it seemed weird.
you guys walked in and all ordered your usual, yuta being awful quiet. your orders came quicker than usual, being that you were the only people in the cafe.
“alright, listen up here, yuta and (y/n), this shit is out of control. it’s childish. why are you even mad at each other about a stupid guy? chenle told me that you woke him up with all of the god damn yelling!” jaehyun spoke.
“he’s not stupid. he is a good guy. i don’t know why it’s affecting yuta so much. maybe we can talk about this later.” you said.
“yeah. we can talk about it later. just (y/n) and i.” yuta spoke out.
seeing the school building, you groaned. back to this hell. the only thing that made it somewhat fun was having your friends in your classes. you never really cared about school. you did have good grades, and you actually tried, but you never cared about any of it.
you see taeyong standing with his friend group, like usual. his friends are some weird people. not in a bad way, they just have “unique” interests. they’re nice people, but you never really talk to them.
you got out of the car, not even saying bye to anyone. you had no reason to. there’s been too much intensity within the last 12 hours. you need some alacrity in your life. something not angry and sad.
walking up to them, you notice his hair is different, and you hear a weird conversation.
“somehow, i don’t know, he just disappeared and no-”
“oh- hi, (y/n)!!” taeyong stopped, when seeing you. you weren’t even gonna question it.
“hi.” you said, looking down.
“are you okay?” the concern in his voice was shocking to you. his friends even turned to you.
“not really, but i don’t want to get into details.” you said, slightly smiling.
“okay, never feel like you can’t talk to me. i’m always available.” he said, grabbing your shoulders and hugging you.
this made the situation worse. what if yuta were to see taeyong hugging you? would he get even more angry? you had to pull away from the hug.
“i’ve gotta go, taeyong. see you in geology.”
“bye!” he waved, smiling.
you’ve been thinking about yuta all day. not necessarily his looks, just him him in general. how did you guys end up living together? all he did was save you from a stupid ex who was threatening you. sure, it was an extreme act of kindness, but how did you guys get to the point of living together? how does is escalate that quickly? not to mention the fact that he lets you sit in the front seat of his car almost every time. he always pays for your k. keopi coffee in the morning. he always makes sure you’re okay even in the slightest-
oh my god. does yuta like you? is that why he’s so concerned about taeyong? no. that’s dumb. he wouldn’t. he mentioned another girl who started fucking around with this other guy. he never gave a name to her, though. maybe it hurts him to see you doing the same thing to someone else as that girl is doing to him. he definitely doesn’t like you. that’s absurd. 
school was such a drag today. all you did was take notes in almost every class. it was an easy day, but it was so boring, and you nearly fell asleep in most of them. you did end up falling asleep in geology, and got notes from taeyong. he’s such a sweet boy. yes. a boy. he is so innocent and so nice to everyone. he i fragile with everyone and knows everyone. god, could you love him more? he’s an angel.
“so, how was everyone’s day today?” johnny asked, breaking the silence in the crowded car.
“good.” everyone says in unison.
“today i got so much done!” jisung said.
“that’s good!” johnny said.
you guys were planning to go to the grocery store immediately after school, hence the car with 10 people in it. luckily, yuta had a large car that could hold all of you, but the car was still cramped.
at the grocery store, it was hard to maintain the seven children surrounding the three older ones. but, being that you all live together, it can’t be that hard, right? you let the youngins wander off to wherever, getting everything on the list. luckily, they didn’t have that different of food choices, being that they’re so close to one another.
after gathering everyone up, you guys made it back to the car and home. it took about 10 minutes to unload all of the groceries you guys had. but, now you guys wouldn’t have to worry about the food situation as much. but now, you and yuta can talk. thank god.
“yuta? would you meet me upstairs in about five minutes?” you whispered in his ear, sending obvious chills down his spine.
“yeah.” he said, shaking the chills off.
“finally, we can talk.” yuta says, walking upstairs and sitting down.
“yeah. listen, i’m sorry for being so mean last night. johnny told me about that girl that started fucking around with some dude.” 
“what? i don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“yuta, johnny never lies. it’s okay to have feelings about other people.” you told him.
“okay, yeah. there was a girl. but she doesn’t matter. it’s not like i have a chance with her. i’m sorry as well for last night. i know how long you have liked taeyong, and i didn’t mean to disrespect both of you like that.” he confided.
“we might have just been out of touch recently, you and i. we do live together, but we never really talk about anything, and i’m sorry about that. i haven’t been paying attention to any of you, it seems. taeyong has almost taken over my mind. he definitely likes me, but i don’t think i want to date him. it’s complicated.” you blurted.
“well, i’m sorry that this ever happened, and i hope we can open up to each other more now. no more secrets.” he said, holding out his hand.
you shook his hand, and agreed to the statement.
you heard someone yelling from downstairs, so you decided to see what was up. when walking down, you found everyone gathered around mao, who was sitting on a stool, guitar in hand.
“what’s going on here?” you asked.
“just sit.” hyuck said.
“today, i will be performing ‘thanks’ by seventeen. thank you for coming.”
everyone cheers, and she starts.
after the performance, you were all in nearly in tears.  you guys had all known the song, but when someone close to you sang it, it sounded more emotional.
yuta was completely sobbing now. you had almost forgotten about that girl he mentioned who broke his heart. this song probably meant something to him, so you went over and sat next to him. he immediately hugged you.
“are you okay, yuta?” you asked, concerned. everyone’s attention turned to him.
“yeah, i’m fine. that song just hits me differently.” he admitted, wiping his tears.
“well, i’m sorry if i made you sad, i didn’t mean to, i just really like-”
“mao, it’s okay. the song just means a lot to me.” yuta cut her off.
“oh.” she said, quietly.
“i think we should all go to bed. whaddya say, y’all?” johnny spoke.
“please never, ever say that again. but, i agree. it’s pretty late.” you said, reading the clock. 
11:19. way too late, being that you’re all emotional teenagers.
“goodnight, youngins.” you said, the older three saying it shortly after.
“goodnight.” they all said concurrently.
walking upstairs, you barely actually made it to your bed. with the help of johnny, you made it. you were so exhausted from today, and all you wanted to do was sleep.
you said goodnight to the other two, and went into your bedroom. you got ready for bed, and laid down. just then, mao texted you.
conversation with mao, (y/n), ivy, teo started !
mao: what’s up with yuta? do you know?
ivy: yeah, im curious.
teo: same.
you: yeah, there’s a girl that he likes that has been seeing another guy. he’s not taking it well.
mao: well, i reeeeallllly didn’t mean to hurt him, and i hope he isn’t hurt.
ivy: i’m sure he’s fine. he said that you were fine, don’t worry about it.
teo: well, i don’t know, maybe he’s not taking it well at all. and maybe he’s hurt, i don’t know.
you: well, now that you’re filled in, get some sleep. sweet dreams, girls.
mao: goodnight.
ivy: gn.
teo: night.
was is bad to tell them about that? he doesn’t like telling people about him, but, surely he wouldn’t mind you telling the younger girls. i guess you’re gonna have to tell him, being that you can no longer hide things from each other, right?

TGWDLM and Love
Okayyyy so I was supposed to write an assignment on how a romantic movie expresses love and I asked my prof if I could write about tgwdlm instead and he said yes?? Bless him so anyway I made wayyyy too many notes for a 500-600 word assignment lmao so I felt like i might as well post em here… this is a compilation of every time Paul and Emma interact pretty much lol its hella long (im not kidding it’s like 7 pages rip) so under the cut :) 
finally done, @isaidsinggoddammit!!
Sidenote: There’s very mixed capitalization as my brain flipped between tumblr mode and assignment mode so excuse that lmao)
Coffee Shop Part 1
Tips well to impress her
Listens to her vent-she already feels comfy enough to rant to him or, alternatively, she’s just a really open person (but shhh she has to trust him to some extent)
Insults others he doesnt know too well but he knows she doesnt like, again to impress
Tries to act indifferent towards everyone else (and tough)
Almost says smth romantic (“Some things are worth it”) but backtracks when she looks confused
In this scene, he tries to act cool but is clearly super nervous. One thing I really like is how he never acts too cool for her, like a lotta people do. He’s genuinely interested in what she has to say and never pretends otherwise, and also never pretends to be interested to get her to like him. I just really love how good he is at listening
Cup of Roasted Coffee/ Cup of Poisoned Coffee
When he panics he goes to Beanies to get a coffee and relax (wake up)
He turns to Emma (subconsciously?) for comfort
Freaks out when she sings (for good reason)
Emma remembers him (“Paul, right?... You’re the guy who doesn’t like musicals”)
Doesnt seem to notice how weird he’s acting
Continues to vent
He pulls her away from the counter to explain what’s going on
Paul finds it important to tell her-she’s the first person he admits it to
Him venting to her like she does to him? Trying to connect in a similar way? Im reading too much into that
He holds her there while explaining, she has to find an excuse to pull away
She thinks he’s crazy-keeps glancing at him during the song (he looks terrified)
Seems concerned for him
He switches between nervously staring at her and anxiously staring into the void (mood)
She turns to him at the “end” of the song and comes near him in the middle
She runs to paul when they start singing
They grab each other
He tells her to run, pushes her forward and shifts so he’s between her and the aliens
This scene is reeeally creepy from Emma’s perspective like oh my gosh can you imagine a man yelling at you (not at you but at your singing but still) and pulling you away from your work and then holding you still when you try to leave??? Anxiety to the max poor babe but also i get paul’s side can you imagine seeing the whole apocalypse beginning and it’s so weird no one would believe you if you tried to tell them? Poor bb. There’s also a lot of things that come up later: the ways he holds emma in this scene is the same way he holds her later one, later it’s to comfort her but  this time it’s more to calm himself… he also pulls her to a better spot like he does later on
Trash Bin Scene
He leads her away-he knows the neighbourhood better
Tries learning about her (you like film?) (cmon paul bad timing)
(at trash) hold hands, she grabs his shirt while panicking
He holds her firmly by the shoulders to calm & comfort (parallels Cuppa)
Emma instinctively grabs Paul’s arm when Bill pops out
“Emma stays with us”-stands up to ted even though he looks pretty scared of him
(sidenote-what did ted do to Paul? The poor boy looks straight up terrified the first time he shows up)
Emma looks real confused about “latte hottay” but she never brings it up
“Paul!” when he runs to Charlotte-gestures at Paul near end of song
Paul tends to comfort people by grabbing their shoulders/putting a hand on their back (Emma of course but also Charlotte and Bill- has a looser hold on them than Emma)
Here they’re already starting to react to danger by reaching for each other and it’s v cute also bless paul i just really like how he calms people down he’s so good and pure
Hidgens’ Fortress Part 1
They trust Emma enough to go to Hidgens’ place (not like they had many other options)
Men™ typically trusted for “strong” stuff-Ted and Bill cuff Sam
Paul stands up for Bill-such a protective boy (could also be doing it to look cool for Emma but tbh it doesnt seem like it ill bring this up again later)
Paul listens intently to Emma’s venting
He smiles, nods, asks qs and repeats phrases she says
Its obvious he genuinely cares
Emma’s v comfy with him-they have an easy chem when Paul relaxes
Emma progressively shares deeper shit as she becomes more comfortable around paul
Paul makes jokes to lighten the mood, but not in a disrespectful way
Seems more nervous when bringing topics to himself
She listens just as politely as he does
“Whoa thats like your origin story...so I guess I’m the supervillain” “I dont think of you like that at all, Emma.” Cutest, Softest smiles on both of them my heART “Listen, Paul”-she was about to confess her love dammit charlotte
I’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: Paul is such a good listener. I dont know why i find this so cute but their convos are so perfect like he asks qs so he knows exactly what she’s talking about (“what’s a coatimundi?” “Oh, did she smoke a lot of pot?”) and he repeats back phrases she says which shows that he’s genuinely listening like...so many characters (and people irl, lets be real)  just pretend to listen to get what they want but he cares so much about what she has to say i just cant stop talking about it it’s so cute also how he seems so comfortable when she’s talking and then starts showing sign of nervousness again when the convo turns to him? Pure mood
Join Us And Die
Both jump behind chair when Charlotte and Sam show up
Emma clings to Paul’s arm + hides behind him
She steps out “charlotte?”
Paul pulls her back when sam approaches
Paul puts himself between Emma and Sam
Emma puts her back to Paul and grabs his arm
Paul pulls Emma away by her arm (“What’s wrong with her shirt?”)
Emma’s caught up in the gore, Paul is relatively level-headed
He keeps an arm around her
Emma steps away from paul to yell at Sam +Char (“He has a daughter!!”)
Instinctively reaches for Paul  when Char gets shot (and later looks back at paul a couple of times when shook at prof hidgens)
Alright they do this whenever aliens show up so imma just talk about it here: this part was in my assignment so 1 lets hope it doesnt get flagged as plagiarism and 2 i could rant about this all day.
Basically Paul fulfills the traditional masculine role as protector and leader. Whenever smth dangerous shows up, he has one hand on her (on her shoulder, arm or the small of her back)-both reassuring them that someone else is there and making it easier for him to move her-which he does lots. He pulls her behind him or pushes her forward (away from the infected), leading her to where he thinks is safest. He always puts himself between her and the aliens, leading her to a safer spot. Emma tends to get distracted (emotional female stereotype) and paul is the one to move them both to safety (strong stoic man stereotype). To be fair, he is a lot bigger than emma and would probs have an easier time in a fight (tho i dont doubt that emma would be v i c i o u s) Emma tend to cling to Paul’s arm when she gets scared (which is really cute)
Hidgens’ Fortress Part 2
Emma adds to Paul’s plan- taps on his arm to move him
Paul steps back in front of her- i always found this weird, he totally blocks her from the conversation like why
She steps back out to roast ted
Paul looks at Emma when Ted @s him-now here’s where I could see him standing up for Bill to impress emma again. It’s not the only reason, but i do think it’s a contributing factor (and probably was before too cuz lets be real, when your crush is around you gotta act tough) of course he wants to protect his bff but he’s super anxious around ted so wanting to look brave for emma gives him that extra push he needs. Alternatively, he looks at Emma as a way to calm himself down before saying smth scary (which is adorable)
Emma wants to help but is called back to help with the lab
This is another thing i find super interesting-wouldnt more people around make it more likely he gets stopped? Did he want an audience (more than just ted) cuz i guess that’s understandable but in that case why didnt he wait a little longer to see if they came back? Idk it just seemed weird to me (also the whole “nooo female cant go out where it’s dangerous” even though it’s more like “oh emma’s the only one i know here can she not leave” wait actually that’s probably it lmao he just didnt wanna be alone with ted ok relatable nvm )
“Hey, Paul?” grabs arms (paul reciprocates) she’s real nervous for him leaving-relates to how much he hates musicals
I find that really cute cuz it’s showing once again how much they listen to each other and idk i just really like that about them
Grabs his face and pulls him close-he pulls her hands down to look her in the eyes to tell her he’ll stay safe
He doesn’t kiss her-super interesting! She pulled him close like that (which coulda been a sign to kiss her) and this was a pretty emotionally charged moment which a kiss would have fit - Paul hates kisses hc?
Not Your Seed + General (technically, just a little note)
Paul holds Emma tight with 2 hands, but keeps 1 hand free when holding others (ie bill and charlotte)
Only tells General about Emma, not Ted or the Prof (tho to be fair, he hates ted and barely knows the prof but it’s interesting how he doesnt even say he has “friends”, just Emma)
America Is Great Again
Paul saves emma and Ted
“Should I take this chair?” asks paul to lead
Emma holds Paul’s arm when they run
She tries to pry “Greg”’s arm off Paul + tries to get Ted to help-not strong enough
“Thank you Emma”-she freed him/killed Greg? I wanna know what happened (i tweeted @ jon, lauren and nick asking, so far jon just liked it we’ll see if anyone answers)
Runs behind Emma + pushes her forward “run, emma, run!”-Emma grabs for Paul, he steps in front
He pulls her through Robert+Corey and turns her around
She pulls him away from the General-paul usually does the pulling to safety
Paul doesnt notice when Emma is grabbed by Ted (lmao i get that he’s a little busy but it still seems odd)
She struggles with 1, 3 are on Paul (not a sexist thing, she’s tiny and also Paul is the main character and the aliens know it plus they gotta do that cool lift thing)
Emma grabs gun + shoots the General, grabbing Paul-”Paul! The helicopter! Cmon!”
Usually Paul does that stuff, but emma takes the protective role more in the 2nd half of this song
Basically we have the classic paul protecting emma stuff but now also the emma protecting paul which is good and fresh and i love...the way she tries to protect paul is different than how he protects her. She yells more frantically, and also is more of trying to lead him whereas paul yells to get her attention and physically moves her himself
Helicopter Scene
He helps her onto the heli, back to his usual protective self
Keeps one hand on the back of her seat the whole time (aww he’s stabilizing himself physically cuz the copter’s shaky and emotionally cuz he’s closer to Emma)
“Emma, seatbelts” he reaches up to help her into her seat-he kicks the gun to save them
“Emma? Emma?” immediate response is to call out to her-that boy was literally awake less than a second before worrying about her i love him
Runs to her when he sees her
“”This is what seatbelts are for” in this scene he seems really like...over it? Idk if anyone else got that he just seemed really intent on destroying the meteor instead of anything to do with Emma… before saving their lives was priority but also spending time with her, here he nods like he’s trying to rush her and does not seem excited to kiss her (again, Paul hates kisses? ok that was a rant that got ahead of my notes but just-) this scene is weird to me like maybe he’s trying to rush to stop the meteor so they can be together after and like not die idk anymore
He reaches out for her, jumping away when she cries out in pain
The rest of the scene he has his hands hovering a few inches away from her, very protective but also very scared of hurting her
Emma comes up with the solution, Paul has to do it cuz she’s hurt (weak gal, strong man, injured person knows secret to survival and tells strong boi how to do it tropes)
“Hey, Paul?” slides over to him-he gingerly supports her back (scared to hurt her)
He shushes her to calm her while talking cuz she’s in pain- ok, maybe its less about “gotta get out of here” and more about “she’s hurt really badly and needs help asap, i gotta destroy that meteor so i can get help” ok that makes sense im dumb lmao
Emma is first to ask out + kiss me? + pulling him in by his tie- breakin stereotype of man making first move
Then the little “..okay..” after she asks him to kiss her...maybe he wanted it to be romantic aww he wanted them to have a real cute first kiss and this wasnt what he had planned (or he just doesn’t like kisses cuz like he looks so uncomfortable there’s gotta be a reason”
He doesnt wanna kiss her cuz of the blood (weak) and is happy to leave-this part is what throws me off most he just like runs on outta there with no hesitation but he loves her?? I dont get it
Dont really need a rant here cuz i did a lotta ranting in the points… excuse my little journey of discovery there lmao I was just confused at first cuz at face value he seems really different, super hell bent on getting out of there whereas in every other scene he pays way more attention to Emma. I suppose it’s because he knows he has to destroy the meteor asap so he can get her help, i just didnt catch that. His motivations seemed very different in this scene to me and i couldnt figure out why
Theory time
Now here’s the fun part-i saw a theory somewhere that Paul can only get infected because he has a true goal now, he really wants to end up with Emma. In What Do You Want, Paul? Mr. Davidson is trying to find out what he wants to use it as motivation to make him more susceptible to the virus/make him sing a song, but since Paul doesn’t want anything clearcut he cant be infected. Now, since Paul wants Emma, he has a goal and smth to fight for but also smth to sing about. The very reason he’ trying to save the world becomes the reason he fails.
HOWEVER. His goal could just as easily be saving the world cuz he literally doesnt bring emma up once? Like i get he’s preoccupied but idk if he’s about to die i feel like he’d at least mention her (unless he’s hoping they think she died and wont go looking for her if he fails) idk their romance is adorable until the scene before this and then these 2 scenes make it feel really off for me
Okay now onto the most fun scene >:) -since there’s so many details i separated them into actions and lyrics
Inevitable (Actions)
“Are you sure there weren’t any other survivors?” :(
“PEIP would like to see it become smth more” because she’s the love interest and they’re supposed to end up together ahhh it’s the alien talking
She grabs his arms to look him in the eyes then pulls him in for a hug (the cutest)
She’s v reluctant to believe it at first “Paul?” She’s still smiling for the first line
Slowly she starts to let herself see what’s happening “Paul, you’re scaring me”
She knows he’s infected but she’s trying her hardest to believe he could be playing a cruel joke
He has power over her physically- holds her where he wants her while they’re dancing
He dances with her at first, gestures to her to move closer, talks to her, moves towards dancing at her instead of with
He blocks her exit, pulls her to where he wants her and ignores her for part
This is where you can really tell he’s different. Paul would never ignore Emma, and he straight up ignores her to sing and dance
He points at her and then goes back to ignoring her
Emma starts sobbing and really trying to run
Emma is dragged to the center of the stage sobbing because she cant do anything
He drops character in credits, waving and smiling to the audience; she doesnt
He’s got physical power over her (strength) but also cuz he’s backed by all the aliens who can move her where she’s supposed to go
Inevitable (lyrics)
“Emma, I’m sorry, you lost.” couldnt kill aliens
“Lost your way” didnt want to join them
“I made it” ‘This is the life that I chose” “I’m still the man you trust” “what if the only choice is you had to sing to survive” “Put words to the lyrics and you’re playing the game now” -maybe he’s faking it (i also heard someone mention the fact that he sings in his natural voice and not the higher one he used for the Alien Brain in Let It Out which is a good catch) (also someone else brought up the fact that he was mostly singing reprises, maybe because he couldnt think up his own tune/entirely original lyrics?)
“It’s inevitable for us”-because she’s the love interest, it’s was inevitable that they’d wind up together
“Show me those jazz hands” He’s trying to convince her to join of her own free will
“or i might be inclined to plant my seed” but is willing to do it by force if she wont
This song is super interesting because of the parallels-he holds her the same way he did in previous songs, pulls and pushes her across the stage like before, but this time it’s turned against her. What was once meant as protection is now being used to force her to join the dance I talked more about this in my assignment but i dont wanna get too close to what i wrote before because it could get flagged for plagiarism and i do not want that so imma reblog this post alter and add my assignment for more info (if yall want anyway)
The lyrics could hint at Paul faking it, and it definitely appears that way (especially with the face he makes at “Im still the man you trust) but i think the part in the middle where he just kind of breaks off to dance really kills that idea for me. Even if he was trying to trick the aliens, he could have kept closer to Emma like he does every other time they’re in danger, and the fact that he straight up ignores her and lets the aliens move her around like that is just not in his character so apologies but i believe our man is gone
Also, regarding the theories that Emma is infected because of the beginning; I could see that happening, but in that case, why didnt she break character at the end? I have absolutely zero idea how/if the intro song fits into the story but idk i feel like she should’ve acted like the rest of them if she really was infected but on the other hand i really like the heartbreaking theory that they’re all infected and Paul just has to keep reliving the story of how he failed again and again for all eternity like ouch? But also? Its great in a painful way??
Um yeah so that’s that for my ranting (my 3 pages of notes became 7 pages with the rants included so sorry about that i just had so much to sayyyy
TLDR: paul and emma are cute thanks for coming to my ted talk
