[jhughesangel]

YOU GUYS!! i decided to get over myself and just write something super quick! i’m actually so nervous about this so if it’s bad let me know that this is NOT for me hahaha. anyways i did not proof read this because it was embarrassing to go back and try to read it. let me know what you think!!!! if i like writing i’ll will most likely make a new blog for it! also don’t mind the formatting i will figure it out one day. xoxoxo

Three times luke shows yn he loves her and the one time he finally says it.

One

luke walked quietly into his room after morning skate and smiled seeing yn snuggled into his side of the bed. he smiled to himself and walked over to her “hi lukey” she mumbled “hi pretty baby” he took her hand into his and kissed it. “i saw these on my way home and they made me think of you” yn smiled and looked at the bouquet of pink roses luke was holding. “thank you lukey they are beautiful” she said blushing. “they made me think of you” luke replied kissing her head softly. “i’ll put these in water and then we can nap” yn nodded watching luke walk out of the room. she couldn’t help but smile at the thought of luke thinking of her.

two

yn’s eyes hurt from studying for more than two hours. she sighed resting her head on top of her open text book. “baby you’re still out here?” luke questioned as he strolled into the living room rubbing his eyes of sleep. yn nodded and didn’t say anything. “it’s late baby why don’t we go to bed?” luke walked towards the table and put his hands on her shoulders “no luke i can’t. i need to pass this test” “i know baby but-“ “NO LUKE!” she snapped at him “you don’t get it luke you aren’t in school anymore” she said rolling her eyes “yn i wasn’t trying to upset you” luke said backing away from the table. yn suddenly felt extremely guilty watching her sweet boy back away from her “no lukey i’m sorry i didn’t mean to snap at you. you have every right to be upset with me” she had tears in her eyes as she said it. luke shook his head and grabbed her text book closing it “baby i’ll never be upset with you. you work so hard and i want you to know i’m here for you. let’s go to bed okay?” luke gently grabbed her arm helping her out of the chair and walking her into his room.

three

yn listened to the buzz of the crowd at the rock. it was the first game of the season that she finally could attend being so busy with work and school. she looked at her friend who sat next to her “i’m a little nervous” she said quietly. “why?” her friend asked making a confused face. “it’s just me and luke aren’t really public yet and what if someone figures it out?” “do you not want anyone to know?” her friend questioned her. “i do i’m just not sure luke does” yn’s friend was about to respond but she was interrupted with the devils being announced. the game was tied in the third period and yn watched anxiously as luke skated through with the puck and shot it right into the back of the net she jumped up to her feet and cheered. luke quickly skated over tapping his heart and then point directly at her before going back to the game. yn blushed as the people around her cheered. “i don’t think you have to worry about luke not wanting anyone to know” her friend said wrapping an arm around yn’s shoulder.

+one

yn was standing in front of the mirror while luke zipped the back of her dress for her. “there all done baby” he smiled kissing the back of her head. “thank you lukey” she said making eye contact with him through the mirror. “you look absolutely beautiful” she blushed “stop it” she said shyly “i’m serious you look beautiful and i can’t wait for the team to meet you” luke said. tonight was an event for the devils and this was yn’s first time meeting everyone “i’m so nervous” she said turning around to face him. she wrapped her arms around his neck and luke pulled her closer by her waist. “nothing to be nervous about angel. they will love you because i love you” yn looked up at him and smiled “you love me?” luke nodded “more than anything” he said bending down to kiss her “i love you too lukey i’m so thankful for you” she said pressing her lips to his.

Devlog #120

Hi-ho, Wudge here. Early devlog...!

This week I drew a blush just for Warden and nobody else. There are two very specific ways to see it, and only in this office location. So... good luck!

I playtested the game enough to get allllllll 26 achievements. I actually... had to reference my own walkthrough to get one of them. ;;; But I was able to do it!!

I also had a small.. incident where Griffin promised he'd talk to everyone to help fix their negative opinions of me (aka, reset the approval points to a more neutral zone after I thoroughly antagonized everybody).... and then he didn't. It's fixed now ;;;;;; But woo that would have been an awful lil mistake hahaha.

I finished the 'updating ur mc pfp' tutorial - seems to be intuitive and working seamlessly enough!

I converted converted alllll the pngs into webps, and converted alllllllllll the mp3s and wavs into oggs...

...and deleted all unnecessary files and notes from the development process. This is usually the stage where I'll end up breaking something from accidentally nuking an important file... but so far so good.

I put in a cute, special lil sfx for the reward you get after the credits.

Finish designing and coding my SECRET NG+ screen, and wrote a personalized dev note to put in it.

And - we've finally updated Mr Whidden! Wahoo!!!! Remnantation did an amazing job as always!

I thought about putting in some animated smoke coming out of his cannon arm but I had to tell myself No... No Wudge....stop.. ......I did add a lil ember and smoke at the very edge of the gun but THATS IT I restrained myself there and did not animate!!!

So, what else is left?

Thanks I'm glad you asked.

Test my email subscription service to see how much I can customize those emails.

Film and upload the Griffin CG video.

Finish and import a few final pieces of in-game art (1 bird sprite, 1 background, some food art).

Review some sound effects in a final, final dev playtest.

Schedule out some social media release posts; wherein I might do like, a week of counting down until the game's release.

Finish updating my itch page (adding the final few lil graphics, putting up the new Content Warning, linking to the new video, then finally, uploading the game files and walkthrough).

Decide how I'm gonna update my pinned post. I should save a link to the old one bc most of its information should be quite relevant, but I'll want a temporary, shorter pinned post for new players who aren't familiar with this blog and are looking to troubleshoot or say hi or something.. Should still have fun attention-grabbing gifs and stuff from the itch page though. <_<

.... So yeah, mostly like - social media promo stuff. That should be it. Fingies crossed. Whew.

By the way?

Super Demo comes out December 2nd. Mark your calendars <3

Stay safe and keep warm,

Wudge.

[tellerluna-stories]

hi, annie!

i honestly don't know where to start, but i'll just say that you have played a huge part during my adolescent years (⁠^⁠^⁠)

back in early-2023, i had stumbled across your blog, and honestly, you were one of my favorite anime/genshin writers !!i was always enthralled for your new posts and works, and i always anticipated your upcoming fics; which had helped me through my own journey when it came to writing !!

you might not be able to see this, and you're probably out there independently; presumably quitting writing, but i'll just say that if you ever had the chance to hop back here again and give us an update; please remember that everyone appreciates you and who you used to be >⁠.⁠<

this is only an appreciation post to you and i hope that one day, you can look back to the years you have spent with us and have a wonderful smile on your face !!

thank you so much for your writing, and i wish you the best in life 🫶

dear, dearest anon, where do I begin,,,,, I'm sorry for replying to this so late,,,,,,,

ok so by chance (hi moots!!!!!!! I'm alive!!!!!!!!!), I happened to log into this blog for old time's sake. I've never actually,, hold on I'm actually really emotional AHAHA I might cry anon I'm so serious rn. I really never expected someone to love my work enough to send in such a beautiful message in :((

you'll never understand how happy I am to hear that I was able to inspire you on your journey as a writer. and I'm still writing! I never stopped writing. I had to take a break for a while because life got busy — work is busy, and I have so many things crowding my mind 24/7 — but I hope you know I never stopped. I just didn't post it here bc I didn't feel confident in my work anymore, but I never stopped. I've branched out from writing too and kept polishing my creative talents since then :"))

thank you for sending this in, truly— you know, I have no words to express the overwhelming gratitude that I feel right now, only ugly sobbing HAHAHA.

also! if you'd let me, I'd really love to read your writing too! I can already tell from the way you wrote this message that your words are full of clear intent and care. after reading my work for so long, please let me have the honour of being your reader, too.

[fandomfluffandfuck]

hi S ok you definitely dont have to answer this bc its basically just me venting and its pretty lame haha but im curious if its something you've ever dealt with or if u have advice... basically i have diagnosed ASD and marvel is my special interest and has been since i was a kid and im pretty positive its going to stay my favorite thing for the rest of my life lol. and sometimes i get so sooo sad and kinda lonely thinking about the fact that like .. i know its basically still one of the biggest fandoms out there but like all my favorite fics were posted like 5-10 years ago mostly from authors that arent even in the fandom anymore and theres never gonna be another movie with steve and bucky together that everyone gets excited about and wants to talk about and theres also just so much less of a fun goofy little tight knit community for stucky on tumblr and online like ... idk i just miss so bad when the mcu was at its peak and there was so much content to consume and so many people passionate about it... and i know theres definitely still a huge presence and like im so thankful that youre an author that i love thats still super active and im always glad to visit your page and to see that theres still so many fans out there that care and wanna interact yknow. but tumblrs different now and its been like ten years since peak stucky content and the actors are all doing their own thing now idk it just makes me sad 😩😩 i feel like such a loser saying it i swear i have other interests and an irl life that is very fruitful and lovely hahaha its just makes me a bit frustrated at my autism because i know i wont be able to ever really stop loving these characters even as others move on

Hey, sweets!

I understand what you mean and you're not a loser, not at all. It's fucking great to have an interest in something, anything--what else is life for? You gotta have something to be focused on and interested in that gives you joy, otherwise, what is there? Just blandness. And, yeah, Marvel fandom is still very much active and that's wonderful and great! But, it's also true that it will never be the same as it was in its heyday. Personally, I wasn't around when the stucky fandom was exploding along the release of CA:TWS/the general MCU height, but I certainly see all the old art, edits, cosplay, etc. that's still reblogged and I've read so many of the fics from years prior, so I have a grasp of what was happening. And I can totally see how you'd miss generally, but especially if your fixation has attached deeply to these characters.

I have a sibling on the autism spectrum (who's old enough to have been diagnosed with Aspergers's syndrome before that was phased out but they are, of course, on the spectrum regardless of arbitrary hierarchical labels that I will restrain from ranting about because I fucking hate that shit, don't talk to me about "high functioning" ugh) and they have a few different life-long hyperfixations as well. So, you're not alone, but, it is hard to think of any actual advice per se. I think you're already doing what you need to be doing, y'know? You're here and enjoying what is going on now, connecting to blogs that are active, finding space where you can talk about these characters, you've got other things to do that also capture your attention, and, of course, you know you're sad about what isn't going on anymore. It's okay to be sad. You can't control what you're passionate about in the same way you can't control who you fall in love with. Are these silly little fictional characters not just people we've fallen in love with a little or a lot, no matter if they don't "exist"? I love that for us. Humans are so cute and full of love.

Fandoms and people change and sometimes it fucking sucks when it happens, sometimes it's great. Either way, it's part of the ecosystem of life. Water and nutrients and air and sun--it makes people change, it makes them grow, and you're allowed to be sad about what they used to be, you just have to keep growing, too. Remember what they were and know who they are now.

Hopefully, something in there helped you feel better, even if it was just from telling someone how you feel.

[mymunefanartaccount]

OMG HI! ( I saw that everyone who texts you starts like this so I'll start like that too lol sorry- )

I'm so excited and I don't feel like sending this to you jkajska

Mune was also part of my childhood and I got completely addicted to it again about 2 years ago XD

I'm so happy to see that someone else is completely crazy about this beautiful masterpiece like me 💖💖 haha

It's good.... your arts are ABSURDLY PERFECT MAN!!! THE BEAUTIFUL AND CUTE GEITO HOW YOU DRAW THE CHARACTERS IS SO PERFECT

I can't stop watching the 3 animations you've already made of them!! With one of them I laughed so hard the first time I saw it my cousin said I was crying laughing lol 💀

Sorry if I'm being more of an idiot and I really loved watching what you do I hope you don't stop because you're really good at it! I really love seeing your perfect drawings they are the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life!!

by the way... YOUR NEW AU YOU GUYS ARE DOING IS JUST PERFECT AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE IF YOU CAN DO MORE 💖💖

i think i could praise you forever but i will control myself and stop kakansiamdiakdbtw I have like a hundred ideas to suggest to you for u drawing lol , but I don't want to bother you too much AND I'M TRYING TO ENSURE I DON'T SAY THEM ALL HERE IN THE SAME TIME KASNDIEMDJ

(Sorry, you can see that I'm pretty ridiculous right? XD)

well... i promise it's the last thing i'll say hahaha

its the AU you are making and... SIMPLY THE BEST AU I HAVE EVER SEEN

MAN... THINKING WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE IF NOTHING HAD WORKED OUT IN THE MOVIE WAS JUST GENIUS!!! YOU ARE AWESOME MAN!!! SORRY AGAIN IF I'M HUMBLE YOU AGAIN BUT I CAN'T STOP PRAISE YOU HAHAUAJSMJAKJDK

(sorry if I was too anxious or said stupid things, and that I really can't control myself sometimes X"D UUU and sory the i wrote text is soooo big- )

This made my day! Everything you said is part of why I made this account in the first place! I joined the fandom wishing there was more art and stories surrounding the characters and world. Then I finally got the idea to just start my own blog! I was a little nervous at first but then I saw how many people also wanted more art and stories in the fandom.

The animation is the most ironic part of it all because Mune is what inspired me to learn animation in the first place! As well as the use of color and saturation I like to use in my own art. Being able to use these skills to make the vines or animations feels like it’s all coming back full circle for me! Also I based the vines I’ve made so far off of @muneheadquarter compilations they made awhile back. They’re hilarious and I recommend giving them a watch.

I’m especially happy that you like my au because believe me when I say there is definitely more to come! I have made some changes since my first post and I’ve been trying to figure out what to post without spoiling too much of the story. What I can say is that I’ve decided to name it ‘Candlelight’.

I’m really glad you like my art and I’m glad you like my ideas and contributions. I hope I can inspire more people to share their ideas in the fandom!

Thank you for the lovely words!💖

[icouldntfindquiet]

Hi it’s the LA Reddit girl/person/whatever I’m referred to. Just wanted to see how you were doing and say hello!

I know the mod news is a bit surprising but thank you for being respectful and kind about it. Much appreciated! I’ve already received tons of not so nice messages over the past few months. I don’t need to knows what fans are saying on here. I’ve seen the the sneaky comments going around hahaha it’s expected. All I ask is that everyone remain kind and respectful ♥️ I love your blog and obviously don’t want tension. Take care 😊

Hello! I’ve been good. Life and work have been busy lately so I’ve been online a bit less. I’m trying to sort things out before my trip next month but also trying to enjoy the last days of summer. And of course, still waiting for CATB to come back. 🥲 How’re you doing?

Putting the rest below the cut because I wrote a lot. 🙈

I admit it was a bit surprising but I think people are just concerned about the sub. I may be alone in thinking this but I find the zero tolerance on posting pics of Van or mentioning his whereabouts unnecessarily strict. This isn’t aimed at you btw because this was in place before you became a mod. I understand not sharing his address as that’s a violation of privacy but I think general whereabouts are okay. Also, if Van is out in public, I feel like it’s okay for people to take photos. Following him around, harassing him, or intentionally trying to find him isn’t okay but if you see him on the street by chance, I think that’s fine. I’m just tired of people accusing someone of being a stalker or not respecting Van’s privacy when they try to share something. It creates a hostile environment that makes you not want to share anything. (But then you’ve got people who lie or post things without proof which is super annoying!) I just feel like we baby them at times. They’re grown adults who can take care of themselves. I don’t think anyone’s booking the first flight to LA and camping outside Sardy’s studio in hopes of seeing him. We’ve got better things to do with our time and money. And yes, I know there are crazies out there but they can call the police and let them handle it. Sorry for the spiel.

I don’t know what can be done to make the sub better. We come to the sub to talk about the band, share news, share things we find, ask questions, etc. It could be the lack of content and silence from the band but I miss working together to gather the unreleased songs in one place, people recording gigs and uploading them for everyone to watch, etc. I miss that sense of community. Now things just feel disjointed. 😟 I think that’s why I’m on Tumblr mostly. That sense of community is still there and things are more lax.

I appreciate the theories but I’m at the point where I just want a no BS rundown of what’s happening with the band. I’m tired of being disappointed time after time. I’m sorry people send you nasty messages. I hope they stop. Like why waste your energy on negativity when it can be spent on better things? Just know this whole thing I wrote isn’t anything against you. I’m just sharing my thoughts about the state of things in the fandom. Anyways, I hope all is well with you and that you’re taking care. No tension whatsoever. x

[honeyhotteoks]

I’m sorry this is going to be a little long… oops? I finally have a long weekend and now that I’m home I’m ready to dive into TNT (which I’ve been holding off for so long it’s insane I didn’t cave in earlier lol)

“Yunho would recommend we all stop drinking water if Mingi said it was a good idea.” I actually giggled at this and scared my parents’ cat lmao T^T This is hilarious and I already love the character dynamics! Also, kudos to woo for helping mc by giving her lozenges, I already love his character juygtfdfghj (I have a feeling he’s gonna be my favourite)

Oh gosh Mingi’s “it’s okay, I’m not going to hurt you” and Yunho's “I’m just worried about you, I want you safe” had me melting on the floor. T^T

As someone who finds… the whole abo thing slightly… *sigh* how do I put it nicely? A lot of it goes very close to the nc category and always manages to make me uncomfortable especially since boundaries are not set before and just... Yeah. So, the fact that they’re talking about it beforehand and setting boundaries makes this so much better? I mean I know you said that ch 3 borders on dubcon, but they did talk about it so I guess that worked out well?

Bruhhhhhh I LOVE HOW YOU’VE WRITTEN MINGI HERE JKHTYRDFGCHJH the no-nonsense, level-headed guy~ T^T (who also runs away when things calm down lmao... Well... We can give him this one though, the aftermath is quite awkward)

JKGFVHKJIU You’ve got me all blushing and giggling with the dialogue especially the “Alphas are meant to provide,” He reminds you, “so let us.”

I love the awkwardness and the lingering feelings that are there throughout chapter 4~ And the last line obliterated me jkhgfjlui T^T She just wants her yungi T^T

OKAY CAN I SAY I LOVE JUNG WOOYOUNG? Remember when I said he’s gonna be my favourite in the beginning (lol I started writing this ask like… 3 hours ago oops?) I KNEW THERE WAS A REASON FOR THAT HAHAHA~ Can I get work friend!WY too please?

Oh gosh, okay Seonghwa! LMAO I love how he took the whole thing in stride. We love an unphased man~ And he offered himself up for the next heat??? AND THE WAY HE DOES IT OML. “you’re pretty, I’m pretty.” I was literally rolling on the couch in laughter.

Oh gosh, Sannie being the voice of reason is so on brand. (And side note, the whole, “but being a romantic doesn’t mean you have to let people hurt you” seems like such a San thing to say I— *sob*) I honestly love chapter 5 so much? Can’t wait to see how the friendship between mc and woosanhwa grows (because I literally love them so much rn ahaha) and how things turn out with yungi~

P.S. sorry if this is weird and feels more like a smash of random words jskmsns T^T I'm always kinda nervous to send asks but I loved the fic so much I just had to tell you ;-;

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! okay so i was literally giggling and clapping my hands reading this review i LOVE it thank you so much for taking the time. it means so much to me that you would do this 😭

but also YES to work friend wooyoung, like in my opinion he just has the makings for the perfect best friend character and there's so much more to come with him and the MC here. he's the most fun to write every time, he gets to have the best dialogue lol

also regarding your note about dubcon/noncon, i couldn't agree more! i'm comfortable reading both of those things if called out clearly in a fic, and i recognize why it's a kink, but it's really a sensitive topic that isn't for everyone and should be handled delicately. that was a big reason why i wrote the consent scene pre-heat in, and i'm glad that resonated with you! i've mentioned this on the blog before, but there will be a noncon scene in a later chapter between the MC and another character however, i just want to be clear it is not actually sexual, it's more just the implication of it and reader grappling with being an omega and feeling like she doesn't have the autonomy she wants to have. i really hope that is taken well by everyone, but just wanted to mention it again since you talked about it and for any other readers that may not have seen my earlier note.

also wait yes protective mingi / alpha mingi makes my brain spin. i'm excited to write yunho later on being a little more self assured about everything because he was leaning more hesitant in earlier chapters and letting mingi take the lead.

thank you SO much for your comment again, you pulled out some lines that honestly i was really proud of when i wrote them, so this comment means a lot.

[nagitos-hopeful-opinions]

Daily Vent #7:

I can’t believe it.

I am…still in complete shock. I’m still trying to process what even happened.

Do you want to know what happened when I went to talk to my remaining classmates?

As it turns out, these “friends” were all Reserve Course students!

Three of them, to be precise.

I could immediately tell just by looking at them. After all, those black and white uniforms stand out like a sore thumb compared to the brown and white ones that true Hope’s Peak students wear.

When I saw this, as you’d all probably expect, I confronted my classmates about this in the most civil way I could.

But, as you’d also probably expect, everyone got really defensive.

For starters Fuyuhiko, the Ultimate Yakuza, told me to “piss off and leave everyone there (which apparently included his sister), the fuck alone.”

Now, I obviously don’t blame Fuyuhiko for having such talentless waste of space for a sister. He can’t help who shares blood with. However, she should have the decency to not try and attend the same school as her superior sibling in a pathetic attempt to try and be on par with an Ultimate like him.

Then Hiyoko, the Ultimate Traditional Dancer, began to hurl insults at me for ruining Mahiru (the Ultimate Photographer)’s meetup with “Sato”.

But if Mahiru had simply dropped contact with Sato as soon as she became an Ultimate, then there wouldn't be anything to become “ruined” in the first place. Removing dead weight is a necessary sacrifice for the sake of fully dedicating oneself to their talent if they're an Ultimate. Even if said dead weight is someone you’ve known for a long time.

And then there’s…that guy.

His name is Hajime, apparently. And...he has to be the worst one of them all.

Not only does he have the nerve to willingly become a part of the Reserve Course department despite being talentless filth, but he somehow managed to befriend an Ultimate despite the two of them not knowing each other before attending Hope’s Peak.

To think that Chiaki Nanami, the Ultimate Gamer, the class representative, could not only become friends with a Reserve Course student…but also be in a relationship with one.

I don’t know how he managed to seduce an Ultimate despite not having even an iota of talent, but just simply imagining how he managed it fills me with so much anger. Honestly, even if Mahiru and Sato were in a relationship, at least there would be the excuse of them being long time friends. But…Chiaki and Hajime somehow being a couple…

It makes me feel...despair.

Anyways, the moment I figured out what this Hajime had done, I obviously confronted him about it.

And to put a long story short…things got physical.

I woke up in the infirmary a few hours afterwards.

But that’s not even the worst part.

Because of what happened, my homeroom teacher was informed about it. Actually, she spoke to me not long after I regained consciousness. She basically said to me that because of my “concerning behaviour” and the supposed “real possibility that I can cause harm to other students”, I'm going to be…suspended. Hahaha…

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THIS IS A JOKE! A COMPLETE AND UTTER DISGRACE! WHY AM I GETTING PUNISHED FOR DEFENDING THE INTEGRITY OF THIS VERY ACADEMY AND IT’S TRUE STUDENTS?! THEY NEED TO BE PUNISHED FOR MEMERLY OCCUPYING THE SAME SPACE AS ULTIMATES! AND I KNOW I’M NOT ALONE IN THIS WAY OF THINKING! YOU GUYS AGREE WITH ME, RIGHT?! YOU GUYS NEVER TOLD ME WHAT I WAS SAYING WAS WRONG, SO THAT MEANS I’M NOT WRONG! I JUST KNOW IT!!

…I think I’m going to stop posting to this account. It has served its purpose by this point.

It’s clear to me that something like this isn’t enough. If I want to truly spread more hope into the world, I need to take matters into my own hands.

So, this will be my final vent.

From the bottom of my heart, I want to sincerely thank each and every one of you that somehow found my blog. I wish that I could have ended things in a less…despairful way, but there’s no point continuing this blog anymore. Sorry, everyone.

Goodbye, everyone. May your futures be filled with only the brightest rays of hope the world can offer!

-Breaks into your Ask box-

HI Hello I am. An Old fan of your Voltron fics. Parallel by Proxy was the first Clone Shiro Fanfic I gave a chance after the theory became Prevalent. See I HATED that theory with a burning passion, and I wouldn't read ANY of the fanfic. But I finally gave yours a shot and i fell in LOVE. I've read and re-read multiple of your fics and I love how you built Ryou and his character arc!! 😭 I'm not quite caught up right now since I haven't read any of the new stuff you posted after like... 2019??? I"m guessing but there was a small gap of time with no updates and I got distracted HAHAHA. HOWEVER I AM READING PRICE CUT PALADINS AND IT HAS BEEN DELIGHTFUL!!!! I missed these clowns and you reminded me just how much I love them 😭😭😭😭🧡🧡 LIKE OH MY GOODNESS ITS A BLAST FROM THE PAST, and a lot of your excellent writing carries that, so THANK Y OU SO MUCH FOR WRITING IT. I'm Getting close to the end and I can't wait to see crap hit the fan!!! Its been my little bed time story for a bit now and has brought me so much joy ;;v;; And this weirdly correlates to uh. I visited your blog a bit ago because I remember you being a cool person and I saw that you were Reblogging stuff for the life action One Piece. I've never WATCHED One Piece, but I've seen a lot of AMVs at conventions and its so Clear that the fans just. ADORE IT. SO when the fans were saying the live action was good I was kinda wondering if it'd be worth watching. But then when I saw you liked it??? Nail in the coffin. I ended up Binge watching the whole thing in 4 days and I now have another Gangle of Beloved Idiots to Cry over So thank you a lot for dragging me onto this sailing ship asdlfjSDLGJLSDGJSD

Me getting this message right before bed:

What a great message to get, thanks for taking the time to write me such a nice little letter!

First off I am delighted I was able to change your opinion on the Kuron/clone!Shiro theory. Because I totally get it, it can be super frustrating when everyone's throwing a theory in your face and you just don't vibe with it. That happened for me back in S1 when everyone was swearing up and down that galra!Keith was totally going to be a thing and it was such a popular theory. I did not vibe with it at all and I nearly stopped watching when it was confirmed canon in S2. So I get how annoying it can be, but I'm glad you were able to enjoy my fic and give at least one clone Shiro a chance!

I'm also equally delighted to hear you've been enjoying the Price Cut Paladins series. I love having a little bedtime story I can treat myself to at night before bed so it is always an honor to be that story for someone else :) I hope you continue to enjoy hyper-competent ex-monster-hunter Shiro and his gaggle of accidentally adopted cryptid family members.

Me? A cool person? Well, I certainly do my best to be at least. I'm just glad my messy pile of personal interests called a tumblr blog also appeals to others sometimes lol.

As for One Piece...

Welcome aboard, sailor. You may never leave again.

Real talk, the live action is a great entry point for One Piece...it still captures the spirit of the series as a whole, but 8 episodes are a lot less intimidating than the 1000+ the anime currently has going. I enjoyed it a lot and highly recommend it to anyone even moderately interested, since it's not nearly as huge an investment.

Thanks for making my night with such a nice ask :)

[valentineforlemonandcherry]

I just read the latest chapters in one go and I think I need a long time to process them. (Spoilers for chapters 36 & 37 underneath the cut)

I NEED TO STOP BEING ATTACHED TO YOUR OCS BECAUSE TRISTAN AND ROWAN INDEED DID NOT GET A HAPPY ENDING

Tristan's death scene was perfectly well written and it makes so much sense with his plotline, but it still broke my heart.

And then Rowan remembering him and calling him an older brother ugh

AND ROWAN (some thoughts I had while reading coming up)

Rowan suddenly sat up. Commitment and honesty… towards what is most important to me… Oh, Rowan, what are you going to do?

Rowan entered the room. He walked in with such purpose that everyone stopped talking and looked at him. Of course, he does :)

And while I can’t pretend that your – your preference for someone else doesn’t affect me, I can work through that with you, as long as ultimately, you really want to be with me.” Okay, that really hurt. like a lot...

“Let’s get married.” ROWAN!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

“Oh, Rowan, of course,” you murmured lovingly. I was actually very excited about this :')

Rowan’s eyes slowly dimmed. After a moment, his hand slipped off of your shoulder. “Oh.” NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. This actually made me sit up. I was hoping she would say yes 💔

“But not your love for forever,” Rowan said. “Not even for much longer. In fact, not after… this moment.” ROWAN NOOOOOOOOO!!! I know this wasn't an easy decision for him and I know his heart also broke 🥺 I want to give him a big hug AND WHEN HE LEFT that made a few tears fall onto my pillow (but I'm very sentimental... as you can probably tell)

“Congratulations!” but Remus swore that instead of sounding more genuine, he was simply beginning to sound more Irish. Hahaha at least this line did not make me cry

AND CLIFFHANGER???!!!!!!!

I wish things would be different for Rowan and my girl. But I also love Remus and Lovely. However, I will really miss Rowan and her relationship. How are you such an amazing writer?? Seriously, I absolutely love your blog. I check it daily, every morning and every night (I'm not going to lie, multiple times a day because the stupid notifications don't work). Your writing is just fantastic. I adore your series, and there are no words to completely convey how I cling to every single word you brilliantly crafted because of how much I adored the lovely stories you brought to life. And you're OCs!!! You manage to bring to life these characters that aren't part of the Harry Potter world and you do it so well. Their backgrounds, personalities, and feelings are meticulously written so that I feel like they are actually real. It is truly remarkable, and your writing is mesmerizing. They bring me so much comfort, excitement, and love. I've been feeling this way since you first started writing and I don't think it will ever go away as you keep writing.  Every time  I read your stories, I get a flood of happiness even though you make me cry sometimes (that may be my own fault because I am a very emotional person). Your stories never cease to brighten my day. I honestly can't get enough of them. I'm always wanting more (which is why I will randomly reread old chapters) and I'm so very grateful for every chapter you so generously provide. Your stories are so beautiful and perfectly written. Thank you for everything!

How to respond to such a wonderful comment?

First of all, thank you as always for reading my work, and thank you for telling me your reactions!

I’ll put the rest of my reply here to save space and avoid spoilers:

When I saw your comments about coming back to read the newest chapters after your exams, I did have a moment of thinking: Wow, these last chapters are where everything finally comes to a head and you’re going to end up reading them all at once. I hope it was still a good read. I was excited to finally release the last three chapters and these next two or three chapters, because they are chapters that I have held onto for so long.

On Tristan, I loved associating him with metal and clocks – very structured, powerful, sharp, unforgiving, and fair. Tristan’s journey and his relationship to his family and friends and also to magic was a bit obscure (because the story is told from Reader’s POV), but I had great fun building it up. I enjoyed writing about how Tristan comes to understand fate as responsibility in an empowering way (as opposed to seeing fate as a negation of free will and a purely negative thing.).

Tristan's darkness and Reader’s darkness mesh well together – mist, snow, fog, and lost ships – because there is a touch of the mythical in both of them and that mythical energy is sometimes the reason for their happiness and sometimes the reason for their depression. Relatedly, Cas is an amazingly gracious and resilient person, I think, and I felt for her character as I finished writing Tristan’s story. Also, Rowan and Tristan would have become inseparable brothers if they had had a chance to mature together. I honestly imagine that between the two of them, every fifteen or twenty years, they trade off on who is the "older" brother and who is the "younger" brother, so that they're always grumbling about one another, but they reach a point where they can't do without each other. The way they use magic indicates their connection and their differences, too - how Rowan manipulates magic to suit him, using the lightest of spells to do whatever he wants versus how Tristan follows the structures of deep, ancient magic and of metalwork and respects and follows those set rules, but both of them are phenomenal at magic and try to use magic to protect their loved ones. Again, the story is told from Reader's POV, so I don't linger too long on this, but Rowan losing Tristan is an overwhelmingly intense loss for him, and my sense is that Rowan himself hasn't even processed that yet.

On Rowan, I still don’t want to say too much, since Foxtail & Wolfsbane still has (at least a little) ways to go, but I will say that I felt a much stronger pull between Rowan and Reader than I initially anticipated. I ended up having to take out whole chapters in editing because I kept writing about the two of them and it became an absurd amount of writing focused solely on their interactions.

I loved reading your reactions to the proposal and break-up scenes. There was actually an alternative version of this scene that was focused more on why Rowan didn’t seem like the right partner for Reader, but I ended up thinking that that wouldn’t actually feel important to the Reader in the moment because she does love him. Instead, I shifted the focus to center more on their willingness to commit to each other, but the pain of that not being quite enough. Seeing your reactions, I think it was the right decision for me to focus the chapter on seeing Rowan trying to step up and Reader trying to meet him there, but ultimately, he knows her so well that she can’t cover up anything in her heart in front of him.

It was always important to me that the fact that they were best friends never got lost in their relationship. Rowan knows Reader far better than anyone else ever well and in a strange way, that contributed to why they separated the way they did. What struck me as sad, throughout their relationship but especially in that last chapter, is that I don’t think Reader knows Rowan as well as he knows her. She can’t read past his façade and see his vulnerabilities quite as well as he sees hers – and part of that is because she’s more independent and the other part of that is because Rowan has such a strong presence and persona of being someone who has it all and is so easy-going all the time that it’s easy to pretend like he isn’t just as vulnerable and lonely as Reader is, when we know he is.

Thank you so, so much for all of the love you give to my stories! It means so much to me that you enjoy them.  ♥ 

P.S. I wouldn't mind if you kept falling in love with my OCs, but y'know, I may be a little biased. Just maybe.

Hi Dream 💞💞 how are you?

I want to get something off my chest. There's this SP that I've been having the typical experience with, you know, hot and cold behavior. Since last year my approach to the law has been a bit similar to yours, allowing things into being, letting go, living and loving life hehe. But my romantic relationships and my self concept in romantic relationships is still somehow... chaotic? A mess? I isolated myself from any potential romantic interest for over a year thinking that being alone was going to be the solution. I then met this guy, let's call him B. B and I met online, I was not really interested in him but eventually I started having fun with him and our chats were cool. I was enjoying who I was with him and I was very chill tbh. Then B started being too busy to chat with me (this has been a pattern, that I have experienced even in friendships) and I started freaking out and chasing him. B slowly started fading away and then it became a cycle of him texting me whenever he was not busy, and basically giving me breadcrumbs, and I was down so bad that I got addicted to this.

Now I'm bored of this dynamic, and also bored of B and don't have any energy left. I decided I seriously need to focus on my self love because I clearly haven't been giving myself enough. I want to move on from him, but I don't want to hold the image of me being his victim, idk if you know what I mean? I was conscious all the time, and I knew what was happening, and I allowed it. I am a victim of myself. I don't want to hold him responsible? Or to hold judgements of him? Yk to keep him in my memory as the asshole B hahah. But also, he kinda was an asshole. But somehow seeing him like an asshole consequently makes me feel like his victim and it keeps me attached to this narrative of "oh he damaged me". I don't know if you understand me HAHAHA. But I also feel resistance towards seeing him like an angel boy lmao. Do I believe he has potential to be an angel boy? Sure, everyone can change, but at the same time, I do feel victimized if I'm fully honest with myself. I do feel like a part of me knows I am fully responsible for myself, and there's no point in blaming anyone but it also feels very easy to blame it all on him and hate him, but then again, I don't want to hate or judge.

Thank you for this blog, it has been a source of support and guidance for me...

hello lovely !! <3 i am doing very well, whenever spring is in the air, i feel so in love ! :)))) how are you ?

that bit about isolating yourself bc u thought it was the solution. so relatable, lmao. thank you for sharing all of this !

i totally understand everything you are saying, as for the past couple years since knowing the law i also felt that way. i refused to hold anyone accountable for anything, because i felt like it was my responsibility to take as, just like you said, i was fully conscious and am a victim of myself. but tbh, this only made things harder and didnt stop people from doing what they wanted. when i started to accept the pain i felt, the way i saw them (they did this to me, and yeah it hurt and im upset, etc etc), i actually started being able to move on and stop harbouring resentments. (bc telling myself i should take responsbility for them only created resentment, bc it wasnt true to how i rly felt inside of my heart) this isn't so much about blame but staying true to yourself. let yourself have that moment to fully digest and feel the way your experience with him has been. bc then you will feel much more free to move into love and nonjudgment and ultimately freedom... rather than trying to force yourself into it now, because you know its what you "should" do. i hope this is helpful <3

i'm so thankful that my blog has been helpful for you, thank you for sharing that :') xo

[masterandapprentice]

Hello! Wanted to say I really enjoy your blog! :D I’m new to the NFL, but it seems some people only support a single team and others maybe have a main team but also like other teams/players. So, I was curious how you came to be a fan of the NFL teams you support? And the players that you like? (And, if you want to share, how you started shipping some of the pairings that you like?)

Thank you! Hope to see you post more works soon, I really enjoy them 😊

Hi there, dear anonymous! :D

So sorry for the late replay! (I didn't forget your questions, just took me a lot more than I wanted to answer you ;) so, this is gonna be long ;)

First of all, thank you for your comments! So glad You like this kinda weird blog here haha, I appreciate it!

Sooo, let's go for the answers!

Yes, I do know there are people who only "support" one team, but I think, maybe, they are fan of a more than one, they just don't say that loud because of certain fandoms haha :P. In my case, I don't care to say it openly, I do support more than one, but, they are like ranked xD

I have been an NFL fan since I was like 10 or something, my older brothers usted to watch sports all day, and well, being the only girl (besides my mom) between a family of 6 it kinda guided me through all this wonderful NFL world :D

Specifically, I've been a Steelers fan for more or less 26 years. It all started when I saw Jerome Bettis running and scoring a touchdown and that's when I saw a curious largue banner holding on that side that said "The bus stops here" so, for me was like "what does that mean?" Ahahaha XD Then I knew Bettis was called "The bus", so, everything made sense in a funny way, and I liked that, and watching him running and people cheering and screaming for him for just going to the end zone with a ball was a great sensation xD (didn't understand still what was all of that football thing was ahahaha), I don't know, my brothers did the same when watching the Raiders play (yes, unfortunately, they were Raiders fans and now they are Cowboys ahaha xD), and I feel the same in that moment and continued to watch Steelers games and becoming a fan. Ups and Downs, wins and losses, superbowls, retirements, change of coaches, a lot to say in all of those years but pretty satisfying :).

At that time I didn't have a favorite player, but all changed when Roethlisberger debuted and he became my fav instantly :).

I didn't root for any other team at that time, until I watched Aaron Rodgers debut with Green Bay (It was love at first sight honestly hahaha, he was sooo cute!) so I also wanted Packers to win everytime and they got the place of my "second favorite team" :3, it was always so nice when they played. And of course he was also one of my fav players.

I must day I also cheered for a couple of other teams, but nothing too serious :P (Ravens and Titans, but just when they are not facing the Steelers or Packers lol)

After that, came the Chiefs. To be honest I never cheered for them until Mahomes. At first I kinda hated them lol and was because after they won the Super Bowl against 49's, everyone was talking about the Chiefs and Mahomes being like the new Patriots, and I just thought "Oh God, not another Brady please" xD

And I was sooooo wrong.

The next season, I fell in love with them. Completely. Not just Mahomes (which I loved once I saw him playing and smiling. Sorrynotsorry) but also Kelce, they were my 2 favorite players but I must say I liked them as a team, as a whole, so they became my new -tied with Packers- favorites :D.

Of course, Steelers are -and always be- number 1, but for now, as they are on a reconstruction period, Chiefs are getting higher and higher ahaha, but I loved them anyway :)

And finally! Jets! Just because is Aaron's new team, so, no discussion here :P

About pairings, well, that's funny because I liked yaoi and MalexMale relationships since I was in high school (so many years ago xD) and I have always found pairings I like, even if the anime/movie/series is not properly yaoi/gay (that's the beauty of imagination ;) )

I have been into sports for a long time (specially male sports, of course that's the extra plus visual I enjoy a lot lol) but almost never thought of them being involved in that way, too much testosterone never let me imagine 2 alpha guys in a relationship like that xD

But.... there's always an exception for everything haha ;D

One time (and it was no long ago) that I was looking on the internet for some players statistics for my fantasy, as I was having Rodgers as my QB and wanted to make a detailed plan for winning the fantasy that year :3, and I found a short, erotic"fic" about him and Alex Smith and I was like "OMG! What the hello I'm reading here!" XD it was funny, because never imagined that kind of guys like that, but, it surely woke up something in my mind that now allows me to imagine them :3

Of Course, Rodgers was one of my favs, and I started looking for more stories with him and.... guess who? Mahomes! Yes! I thought they would fit perfectly, and most of all, I love age-difference pairings, so they were like made for each other ❤️.

Mahomes x Kelce, not so much to say... best friends, same team, great connection, both hot sexy guys, why not? Ahahaha, yeah!

And, there are also other pairings I like but mostly is Rodgers/Mahomes my fav so far :D

OMG! That was too long!! I mean, who writes so much answering a question? xD sorry for the book.

But I really appreciate your lovely comments ❤️, i'll do my best for writing more and post them soon :D

Thank you so much!!!!! And again sorry for the delay!!! :) anything else I'm still here ;)

I know i have not been blogging sincerely...

So here are some random paragraphs of my thoughts. 

I stumbled upon my super old blog when i was in secondary school and was just so impressed with how dedicated I was in writing long-form content almost everyday. I was honest and shared many details about my life; things i will never disclose now. Looking back, it was just so nice to see my deep thoughts written out like a time capsule. I wish blogspot had more sophisticated technology to retrieve the broken html images though....if only I could see those photos one more time to save it on my hard drive :(( Come on blogspot!! Work your magic. 

I have also been on TikTok a lot just to see random corners of the world and their trending topics. And it seems like there’s not a single authentic experience out there. What i mean is that everyone has gone through very similar encounters in life—be it super strange, random, mundane, fleeting, heartbreaking, gratifying, or serendipitous moments. In short, no one is THAT special hahaha. Here I am on the app relating to a girl I have never met before; on creepily watching a passenger’s in-flight movie that is three rows in front of me. Funnily, I am not the only one. 

On the topic of my breakup with Vogue—my one-sided and short-lived romance—I have thankfully moved on. I do not want to ponder on the What Ifs, Should Haves and Could Haves. There were just so many things I’ve learnt about myself. So, so many things. It’s so humbling to have been exposed to such a glitzy and walls-have-ears environment. I learnt that the people in fashion are one of the most dedicated, hardworking ever and they are so willing to give up a part of their life to feed their artistic soul. They are deceptively confident to a pulp, almost to a point where it feels faultless and inspiring. Simply put, they DGAF about you. They wanna be there. They wanna succeed. And they don’t mind skipping lunch to prove how much they live-eat-breathe the craft. Fashion is understandably visual-centric, but it is NOT frivolous. In every article of clothing, shoe, accessory, there’s always history, storied value, art, connotation, metaphor and a message. In every campaign, there is no stone unturned because your creative eye works non-stop. When you write about it, you have to be painfully accurate. You are damned if you say Burberry is Italian when, really, its British!!!!!! These are the little things that make the big picture. It’s how Issey Miyake got his signature style. And it’s how the fashion clockwork never stops. But for now, I just want to have time to eat during lunch time :”)

To end things off, in the spirit of the happiest time of the year (not that I am celebrating), just like magic, the house has four people as compared to nine. For the past 26 years of my life, I’ve lived in walls that buzzed non-stop. Now, when I come home late, I do not see my sisters sprawled on the sofa using their phones. I don’t see my brother eating rice at midnight. Nor do I see a pile of used cups on the table—a bad habit of ALL my siblings. But then, now the house has three little mini gremlins (my 2 nieces, 1 nephew) whom have brought all of us even closer despite not living together under one roof. Amazing how blessings can take place in any shape. Big or small, it is what makes life, life. And for that I am very thankful. 

I am done with self-doubt and overthinking. This year really showed me that I need to have more confidence in myself. I am so ready for next year!! But I am also loving December very much <3

diluc, kaeya, albedo and childe when they’re in love

“ahh ok i just discovered ur blog and this is my very first ever request to a blog. so uhm can i req diluc, kaeya, albedo & childe headcanons on what they'll do when they're in love? like, will their attitude change when they're around the reader HAHAHA it's ok if u remove a character <3 if u don't want to write it feel free to ignore hehe”

Diluc

Even though you both decided to keep the relationship away from the public eye, it’s not shocking that certain people come and ask if you can deliver a message to Diluc. It tends to be Kaeya or even Jean, whenever the Knights of Favonius are too busy to handle something a little too dangerous. Sometimes it’s even Venti, trying to persuade you to convince Diluc to lower the dandelion wine price.

Whoever the person is, they come to you because they know that Diluc has a soft spot for you. If something catches your eye, expect it on your doorstep the following day. He loves to spoil you, to the point in which you have to tell him to stop gifting you things, and that his love is and will always be enough.

And obviously, they know that if someone can convince him of doing something, that someone is you. It’s amusing how the normal situation switches when it comes to you. If Kaeya approaches him and asks for a favor, expect a very angry Diluc rolling his eyes and turning around, completely dismissing him while trying to not make a scene in front of you and the other costumers at the tavern. But, if it’s you who delivers the message, he just sighs and meditates it, eventually giving in. You see him smile slightly once you quickly kiss his cheek and thank him.

“Why do you always decline these requests but accept them once I ask you?” You once asked, looking up to face him as you cuddled him in bed. His hair was messy and untied, but he still looked beautiful, specially under the moon light.

“Because you’re not annoying” he simply said, caressing your cheek. You stared at him, unconvinced. This earned you a soft laugh from the man beneath you.

“I don’t know, I just can’t say no to you. Which is funny because now everyone knows you’re my weakness” He said.

It was then and there that he understood how much you meant to him. You could ask him to pick up every single Cecilia flower in Mondstadt and he would not hesitate to do it. It was dangerous, and he knew that, but his feelings were too strong.

“Kaeya will definitely use this for-“ “I love you” he said, interrupting you. Your eyes widened and a small gasp left your lips. It was the first time he said the big “L” word, maybe the first time in his life.

“I love you too” you whispered, still in awe from his previous confession.

He kissed you deeper than ever before, transmitting every single feeling he had into the kiss. You meant the world to him. He was in love.

The rest of the night was filled with quiet “I love you”s and cuddles, eventually falling asleep wrapped in each other’s arms.

Kaeya

One thing that helped him understand his feelings for you was that he could just be himself.

His past forced him to wake up and put on a facade as the flirty Cavalry Captain that had every person in Mondstadt wrapped around his finger. But you were different. When he was with you, he was Kaeya. No fancy titles, no social etiquette. Just Kaeya. Not only he felt comfortable enough to be himself around you, but you also seemed to like his true self as well. And that’s how he realized.

After long days filled with commissions and some paperwork, he would come home exhausted only to find you already waiting for him. Without need for words, he would wrap his arms around your waist and hide his face on your neck after leaving a small trace of kisses.

“Long day?” you asked as you gently hugged him, untied his hair and started brushing it with your fingers. He would reply with a small “hm” before looking up and kissing your lips.

This sight could confuse an outsider, since Kaeya, with his oh so flirty social title, is usually the one calling out for you or keeping his hands on you at any moment. Kaeya is not afraid to show his love to the world, and he makes that very clear in public. Yet, this sight made him look vulnerable, and that was something he reserved just for your eyes. You made his walls fall down, you made him vulnerable in the best way possible. He felt at peace when he was with you, and that feeling used to be so foreign to him due to the secrets of his past. But here he was, in your arms as he rambled about his day without care in the world.

His attitude towards you in public never changed much, always finding his way to make you swoon and fluster you. He loves to let everyone know that he is yours and you are his. But, once the doors close behind him, he would let his guard down completely with you. He would cling to your body as he seeks for advice or talk about his worries.

“I think that it’s best to ignore Pallad from now on since he always gets-“ you started saying, but noticing how Kaeya was looking at you made you lose your trail of thoughts. “Wh- Why are you looking at me like that?”

“You make me feel better about myself” Kaeya said, snuggling closer to you. He let out a chuckle when he heard you mutter a “huh?”

“You make me feel at peace, and I haven’t felt like that in a long while”

Albedo

Relationships were kind of new to Albedo, he wasn’t certain about the right way to show affection. But one thing he was sure about was that every time you came to visit him in his research room he felt funny inside. Funny in a good way, he felt a sudden urge to hold your hand or make you smile. 

To understand this feeling more, he started doing research on couples in Mondstadt. Was he the only one that felt this way at the sight of someone he cherished? Or was this the beginning of him becoming a monster and destroying the city of freedom at last? Lucky for him, he realized that it was considered normal to smile whenever you see your s/o. 

While he was doing his research, Klee appeared holding one of her treasures. She wanted to show Albedo her newest creation, but instead she found him staring at some old couple sitting by a fountain. She thought it was a strange sight. “What are you doing?” she asked, startling him. “Research” he simply said. “On old people? Why don’t you do a research on me? I’m young! And I have treasures!” “I don’t think you can be of use in this research” he said, sighing. 

It took Klee a while to understand what was happening, but when she did she started giggling uncontrollably. Albedo just stared at her wondering what was wrong with the child. “Albedo are you in love?”

Love, such a strange concept. He read about it, and now that Klee mentioned it, he realized that it made sense. He felt funny every time he managed to make you smile or laugh, and even more when he saw the blush on your face after complimenting you. He realized that the “funny” feeling happened because he loves you. He loves when you visit him, he loves when you ask him questions about his research and when you offer to help him. He loves you.

He immediately started searching for you, he felt the sudden urge to see and tell you about this discovery. Once he found you, he couldn’t help the smile that appeared on his face. You looked beautiful, and you weren’t even trying. You just came back from a commission and your hair was messy, and he noticed that your clothes were a bit dirty too. Yet you looked mesmerizing to him. 

“Albedo! I was on my way to visit you!” You greeted him once you saw him, kissing his cheek. 

“I made a new discovery today, dear.” He said, taking your hands in his. “I discovered that I’m in love with you”

Childe

If there’s something Childe is gonna do, is spoil you to no end. Similar to Diluc, if he noticed that something caught your eye for more than 3 seconds, expect it by your doorstep soon. And don’t even try to stop him, he just won’t listen.

Since he has to go away for weeks due to his line of work, he wants to spoil you so you don’t forget him. Not that you could anyways, you always thought of him and even prayed for his safe return. When he comes back, expect little souvenirs from his travels and stories he may or may not exaggerate a tiny bit.

He loves whenever you wear things he gifted you, and loves to tease you about it. “May I know who got you that beautiful necklace dear?” he would ask with a smirk on his face. “You, Childe” “That’s right, the best for my favorite person in the world”

But his love doesn’t come in material things only, he also loves to spend time with you. There are times that he has to go away for long periods of time, and after a few weeks he starts missing you so much he just has to send someone to pick you up and bring you to him. On those occasions he makes sure to do everything he has to do in the morning so he could spend the afternoon exploring with you.

His line of work is dangerous, and you know that. There are times in which you’re exploring some ruins with him and treasure hoarders appear. In those cases he asks you to close your eyes, and only open them when he tells you to. Under no circumstance he wants you to witness this side of him he tries so much to hide.

Once it’s over, he would reach to you gently and tell you to open your eyes. When you do, the sight in front of you breaks your heart. He was alright, not a single scratch on him, but his face was filled with worry and fear. “I’m sorry” he would say, closing his eyes and taking your hand. “Why are you apologizing?” “I’m a monster” he said, not daring to look at you.

It would take you a few minutes to convince him that he actually is not a monster. Those treasure hoarders appeared out of nowhere, and threatened you. He was just protecting you. “This is what I do all the time, how are you not scared of me?” He asked. You hugged him very tight, not wanting to let go of him until every drop of fear and guilt leaves his body. “I know you would never hurt me”

He knew you were right, he could never hurt you. He may think he is a monster unworthy of your love, but he knew that he could never lay a finger on you. And as you hugged him tight in front of some random ruins you were exploring, he realized he was in love and swore to himself he would do anything to protect you.

Rewatching A Very Supernatural Christmas

Welcome to “I Saw Sammy Ganking Pagan Gods: A Supernatural Rewatch Blog” with Lor and Mace!

 Up today, s3e8: A Very Supernatural Christmas

 Once upon a balmy Michigan December, something in a red suit is coming down chimneys and hauling people away. Sam and Dean are on bad Santa’s case, and while they’re at it, Dean is angling for a proper Christmas celebration while Sam is dragging his feet hard at the idea. They visit a sketchy Christmas wonderland, go caroling (they don’t know the words, bless them), and have a beautiful brother moment where they discuss why they each feel as they do about the coming holiday. (Spoiler alert: it’s because it’s gonna be Dean’s last Christmas.) Turns out pseudo-Krampus is a pair of pagan gods masquerading as a middle-aged couple named Edward and Madge, and after a hilarious (and disgusting) torture scene, the boys dispatch them with their own festive decorations. Throughout the episode are interspersed flashbacks to the Christmas when Sam learned the truth about why John is never around, Dean tried to create Christmas for his brother through theft, and Sam gave Dean the amulet that he now never takes off. The final scene of the episode sees present-day Sam giving Dean the best Christmas he can, complete with tree, presents, eggnog, and a football game on the TV while outside snow finally drifts down on Baby.

 Below is a log of our real-time reactions as we watched. Remember that there may be spoilers for any part of SPN’s 15-season run here. Note also that the nature of our conversation is adult and thus it may contain adult language and themes.
